POZ Today's Mixtape Festival Preview: Our Must-See Bands And Acts
Today's Mixtape Festival will be taking place this weekend on Long Island, and PropertyOfZack is gearing up for a weekend of fun, and we hope many of you are too. Just in case you're not too in tune to the festival already and can make it out, we thought it'd be a great idea to put together a list of POZ's Must See Bands And Acts that will be gracing the stage this weekend at Mixtape. Reblog and let us know who we need to see while we're on Long Island this weekend as well!
Defeater, by Alyssa McKinley
On a steady rise since 2008, the Massachusetts natives of Defeater have achieved the level of recognition that they deserved after their 2011 release Empty Days and Sleepless Nights. Their intense blend of punk and hardcore is not only musically genius, but also stands for more than what much of the music of their contemporaries does. Driven by a remarkable amount of passion and complemented by equal amounts of talent, Defeater is even more impressive live than recorded. Their headlining performance during the first day is set to stun fans Friday night.
Modern Baseball, by Zack Zarrillo
Though I was not in attendance for The Front Bottoms' set at Mixtape Fest in 2012, I've heard the stories. A band not too familiar with Long Island and a crowd with high hopes met towards the end of the night and sparks resulted that summed up a continuously growing band's year. Modern Baseball seem to be in the same place this year, and Friday's lineup at Mixtape is all but waiting for them to clean up. We expect big things.
Vinnie Caruana, by Alyssa McKinley
Returning to 89 North solo, Vinnie Caruana is sure to fill the venue with as much energy as he did with I Am The Avalanche a few months ago. This Long Island native never fails to deliver an unforgettable performance, but those shows that take place in his own home are always more incredible. With a new EP adding only more brilliance to his extensive and diverse catalogue, Caruana is one of the most authentically talented veterans of the Long Island scene. His acoustic set will be just as attention demanding as the full bands on the hardcore-heavy bill that Friday promises.
Citizen, by Zack Zarrillo
This is the last season Citizen is going to fly under anyone's radar. We've been promoting the band on the site since 2010, when members of the band were just halfway through high school, but things are finally in full gear for the five-piece from Michigan. They've been taking everyone by surprise on the Suppy Nation Tour, and Long Island won't be any different. Coming soon will be a full-length that should be nothing short of incredible and a run on the Vans Warped Tour, so get into this band now if you've yet to.
Hostage Calm, by Alyssa McKinley
After the October release of Please Remain Calm, it has been hard to ignore the well-deserved acclaim of Hostage Calm. The politically charged lyrics and raw musicality of this band are a refreshing reminder that punk is nowhere close to dead. With a live performance that is as true to their recorded sound as it gets, Hostage Calm's Saturday performance is sure to garner the respect of anyone who hasn't already fallen in love with them.
Koji, by Adrienne Fisher
Amidst all the full-band performances that we'll see this
weekend, we'll find acoustic refuge on Friday in two of the Acoustic Basement's most recent players, Vinnie Caruana and Koji. Koji is gearing up to release his first full-length record on Run For Cover at the end of the month, touring in the weeks leading up to it with fellow Pennsylvania friends Slingshot Dakota. But Koji's tour-mate history hosts a sizable variety between genres, as does the roster of bands that he's collaborated with for splits and such – consider his split with La Dispute up against his tour with Never Shout Never - suggesting that the man behind the music has a lot of ideas and influences permeating his output. With that and his sincere, personal storytelling during his solo sets, we know that Koji's appearance at Mixtape Fest will be a pleasure, especially if we get a look at the next release in the form of a new song or two.
Pentimento, by Adrienne Fisher
Playing midway through Saturday is upstate New York's Pentimento, a rock-solid melodic punk band that has been pushing their name out on tours with peers like The Swellers and Allison Weiss over the last year. After encountering some rocky roads leading up to the release of their first full-length record, Pentimento turned the tables and wound up releasing it themselves through a multitude of channels, making sure to deliver personal gratitude to many fans who reached out to donate for it. With a sound that's emotionally tense and does one of the best jobs of hearkening back to the nittier, grittier days of the punk and pop-punk stalwarts of old, as well as their record seeing proper release treatment on both Paper and Plastick and Black Numbers, we're looking forward to see if the rigorous touring and no-frills attitude translate just as tightly to the stage.
The World Is…, by Alyssa McKinley
The World Is A Beautiful Place and I Am No Longer Afraid To Die is as much of an earful as its name is a mouthful. Returning to Today's Mixtape Festival for the second time, they are sure to blow crowds away in the same fashion as they did at last years fest. Delivering a unique blend of post-hardcore, indie rock, and emo, TWIABP has created its own niche with ease and are as unpredictable as people as they are as a band. The band's enthusiasm and musicianship will undoubtedly provide for another performance filled with incredible chemistry between themselves and their East Coast fans. TWIABP is one of the many non-headlining acts that should not be forgotten about or missed at this year's Mixtape Festival.
Dads, by Adrienne Fisher
Okay, okay, the March Sadness/David and Goliath victory has got everyone's attention by now, right? Dads, the emo band from New Jersey that successfully knocked off a ton of their contemporaries in our bracket match-up last month has drummed up a substantial amount of buzz for themselves over the course of their career, along with a growing musical catalogue and a kick-ass touring ethic that earns them a spot in our recommendations for Today's Mixtape Fest. They write and tour as a two-piece, but don't let that fool you into thinking that they can't energize or captivate a crowd as well as any other band with more members. Drummer John Bradley also happens to be singer John Bradley – when was the last time you saw a dude rip a drum kit while simultaneously maneuvering strong vocal melodies? – leaving guitarist Scott Scharinger to flail and fling about the stage while their fans inevitably do the same on the floor. By the way, nobody will be standing still at a Dads show, so come prepared to bounce around and wail along.
Iron Chic, by Adrienne Fisher
Punk and wonderful, Long Island's own Iron Chic will be anchoring the tail end of Friday night's lineup, and while the band are regulars on the tri-state area touring circuit, their appearance on this season's Mixtape Fest is a can't-miss for anyone traveling from out of town. Despite only having one full-length record and a few minor releases to their catalogue, Iron Chic has bastioned firm support for themselves by treading waters of rough-yet-accessible pop-punk with the DIY ethics to boot. Regardless, that full-length has got a host of stellar sing-a-long moments on it, and you'd be remiss to skip out on a Long Island favorite playing a Long Island show – if nothing else, the pile-ons will be of the highest echelon.

I put so much time and energy decorating this room as inexpensively as possible that I had to put it up here. The furniture is from Ashley Furniture and JcPenney, the curtains are from JcPenney, the rug is from Lowes and the accessories are mainly from TJ Maxx and Old Tyme Pottery. My favorite part of the room is the wall mural, even though it took me 7 hours to complete.

Due to a lack of a NFL package, I have not been able to see the Packers-Bears game but watching the three touchdown passes from Aaron Rodgers to James Jones has highlighted the chemistry which has allowed Jones to be much more effective this year than he was in 2011.
The first touchdown pass was perfectly thrown as Aaron Rodgers had that elite touch on his throw which took it out of play for any other defensive back of the Bears. Rodgers also knew how fast Jones can run and the ball fell right into the hands of Jones in the endzone for what seemed like an easy touchdown. This type of touch is only seen from elite quarterbacks like Rodgers and Peyton Manning (who is in the game I'm stuck watching instead) as Rodgers still is showing why he is the NFL's best players despite not putting up the biggest numbers.
The second touchdown was well-called by the Packers as a slant pass is one of the smartest plays that a coach can possibly call. It works against most coverage schemes. Rodgers put the pass perfectly into the chest of Jones but it was Jones who made the better play. Jones jumped up in front of the Bears' defender like a basketball player blocking out to get a rebound while catching and securing before making an easy move in for the touchdown. Jones's strength is what makes him a playmaker as he is the perfect complement to Greg Jennings and Randall Cobb's speed.
Aaron Rodgers and James Jones both showed how talented they are today and their complementary skills and chemistry has been key to putting the Packers in the lead.

What Hairstyle Do You Like Best on Halle?
by Beauty 39 Reactions 0 Shares Print
Let's face it, no matter how many different ways Halle Berry chooses to wear her hair, she's babe-a-licious. That body, that skin, that smile, that boyfriend (oops, got a little ahead of myself there). Over the years she's definitely played around with her look and the only one that I'm not crazy about is number one.
Halle baby, you are many things, but a blond isn't one of them. Every beauty gets one free pass though, right? I absolutely loved her hair when it was super short. She is one of the few women that can carry a pixie cut and still look gorgeous. What hairstyle do you like best on Halle?

SU3 7 years
I chose long and sleek but I also liked the short and choppy. She looks great in any one of those. She could go bald and still look beautiful (which I think she's going to for a movie). She's just got one of those faces (and the confidence!)

Chris there is at least some truth to what you hear about Americans. I think the favorite activity IS shopping. And watching TV. I don't know about the streetwalker question. But it doesn't seem safe. There might be people who get into their car to go across the street, but not many. Even so, in my suburban area, there are no stores less than a couple of miles away, and they don't have much.
They do freeze over, but not every year. When there is 5 cm. of ice, a Frisian tradition awakens: can we organize an Elf Steden Tocht? Waterways connect 11 Frisian towns, and once there is 12 or more cm. of ice they organize a skating trip along that route. You must be a very strong and practised skater to finish the trip - no, I don't skate.
Yes, all the shops are here within walking distance, and a few department stores. And I can take public transport for more shopping, and of course the internet. I think there are some big box stores in this country, but I never bothered to think about them; you can only get there by car and I don't drive. Sometimes a neighbour gives me a ride to a garden centre, also hard to get there without a car.
And can you walk to the shops? I hear lots of things about Americans and I have no idea how much is true. E.g. Americans get their car to go to the other side of the street. E.g. An American woman cannot take a walk on her own for she will be seen as a streetwalker. E.g. favorite pastime in America is shopping. Bill Bryson writes about some of these things and he seems to enjoy it, but I wouldn't. Can you enlighten me?
I didn't realize the canals froze over in winter. Driving from Brugge through Netherlands to Germany and then north, I remember very flat lands and a low mountain range to the south.
Google Earth shows very pretty Dutch style houses such as in Amsterdam, Anne Frank style. I see lovely tree lined canals. I couldn't find any roof gardens.
Do you have stores, i.e. grocery, bakery, butcher, clothing, within walking distance? Do you have the big box stores that contain everything from meats and vegetables to hardware, automotive, etc.?
According to the land use map, you live in cattle and grains producing area.
Hi Joan, there was glaciation here, in the north of the country. The glaciers formed low hills and left moraines, which were used in the dolmens later on.
The canals still freeze in winter, but in the Little Ice Age winters were unusually cold and lasted about half a year. Now we consider a frost period of six weeks unusually cold. As far as I know the Little Ice Age was caused by lower activity in the Sun, so the sea level was probably a little lower.
I'm a descendant of seasonal hands who worked the land in the area of the Dutch/German border. There are no stories left as far as I know.
Chris, it appears on the maps I checked that the Netherlands didn't have glaciation during the most recent Ice Age. I think the ice came as far down as southern England. Is that your understanding? I know there was a "Little Ice Age" when Amsterdam's canals water froze. It lasted from around the middle of the sixteenth to the mid-nineteenth century. Does your family or community have stories about that period. I wonder what the sea level was at that time.
How interesting. I suppose there are many relics in the muds of the Netherlands, with all the armies crisscrossing your nation over the centuries.
I ran across
In a 37.5 meters deep well in the Oosterschelde, researchers find remains of animals from the Early Pleistocene, about 1.9 million years ago. On 1 September 2012, a fossil of a canine was fished up. This makes it the oldest dog ever found in the Netherlands.
The primeval landscape of the Oosterschelde 1.9 million years ago was a subtropical forest with swamps, rivers and open grazing areas.Mammoths, mastodons, rhinoceros, deer and zebra-like ungulates lived there. This canine is, after the saber-toothed tiger, and the hyena the third carnivore now known from that era.
The fossil dog's jaw is now on show in Naturalis museum.
Three tough mammals — a huge "bear dog" and two saber-toothed cats — were among Europe's top predators 9 million years ago, according to a new study.
So you have some pretty interesting ancient fossil history in the Netherlands.
Thanks for the info, Joan! A good way to make unseen country come alive in the mind!
Here in the mud is not very much to be found: some dolmens and bog bodies, and some Roman leftovers, most visible in old place names and in the distances between their settlements - a days march. And North Sea fishers sometimes find bones and teeth from woolly mammoths in their nets.
Yes, we do have fossils of horses in the NW.
Also a Mammoth fossil was found near Rosalia, WA, south of Spokane, in 1872; it is on display at Fields Museum in Chicago.
50 miles south of Spokane there was a mastodon found and we know that extinction occurred during the Homo sapiens migration into the Americas during the last Ice Age.
Mastodon fossils, Washington state
Mammoths became extinct 10,000 years ago; fossilized remains of the Columbian mammoth were found on the Olympic Peninsula.
Glacial Lake Missoula and the Ice Age Floods
Mammoth from an ancestral species of north African mammoth (M. africanavus) disappeared about 3 or 4 million years ago. Descendants of these mammoths moved north and eventually covered most of Eurasia (these were M. meridionalis, the "southern mammoths").

A Moroccan arts and exhibition centre will be inaugurated on Tuesday, May 10, in Berlin, in the presence of the Moroccan ambassador to the German capital, Rachad Buhlal. The Moroccan Ambassador announced that this special "cultural facility is intended to present the various kinds and faces of Moroccan artistic creativity". He added that the new center, which will be open to Moroccan artists residing both in Morocco and in Germany, will also help "to promote the German-Moroccan relations in the fields of culture and arts".
<i>Yabiladi</i> reports that in celebration of the opening of the center, its inauguration will be accompanied by an exhibition devoted to the history of Moroccan diplomacy, based on several pictorial works presenting various scenes from the history of Moroccan diplomacy, including a painting of the first Moroccan embassy in Germany from 1878.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. | The day before he abruptly resigned from his job, Florida Education Commissioner Tony Bennett wrote an impassioned email to two former governors he called "part of my family."
Bennett, Indiana's former superintendent of public instruction, reached out to former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush and former Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels to give a spirited defense of his actions while also explaining his reasons for stepping down last week.
Bennett said his life had been a "living hell" after The Associated Press reported that his staff in Indiana changed that state's school grading formula to benefit a top Republican donor's charter school.
"The simple fact is that I cannot allow my family to go through this and what will be more attacks to come," wrote Bennett in a July 31 email from his personal account.
"I cannot allow all our work in Indiana to be compromised. I cannot allow you Governor Daniels, and your legacy to be cheapened," he wrote. "I cannot allow our staff to be victimized and hurt. I cannot allow this to cast a dark shadow over Governor (Rick) Scott and his need to have an education leader who has the credibility to lead. Finally, I cannot allow your work which I consider to be the cornerstone of education reform to be cheapened by this character assassination that will spill over into your work."
The email was released Friday by the Department of Education in response to a public records request.
In the email — which also was sent to the head of a foundation run by Bush — he acknowledges that he had told them before he had notified the chairman of the State Board of Education.
The email does state he had talked to the Scott administration before notifying Daniels and Bush.
Bennett in his email said he came to Florida to help Scott have a "lasting legacy" because he believed that the education model first installed under Bush is "right for American education."
"While I never was so Pollyanna to believe that I would love Governor Scott the way I do you guys, I came here to help him nonetheless," he wrote. "I believed and still do that following the path you guys so bravely and astutely trailed was his ticket to a lasting legacy."
Bush — who gave a speech on education Friday in Chicago while appearing at a conference of the American Legislative Exchange Council — did not respond for comment about the email. But earlier this week, Bush wrote for The Miami Herald a staunch defense of Bennett where he said that "Florida's students will feel the loss of his leadership the most." Bush contended that Bennett had lost his job because he took on the "political left" and the "political right."

1 SUMMARY Institutional Arrangements for Freight Transportation Systems With the nation's growing consumption of goods and services has come a growing reliance on freight transportation systems. Stakeholders in these systems--both public and private-- have recognized the need for new investment strategies to keep up with demand. Dialog and collaboration between the public and private sectors have given rise to new institutional arrangements dedicated to advancing freight transportation through various means. Strong institutional relationships can help overcome the obstacles inherent in the complexity of freight movement systems and the limits to transportation funding. This report identifies the factors that help freight institutional arrangements succeed and provides guidelines to help other institutional arrangements be successful. The findings reflect several data collection efforts, including a literature search, a stakeholder workshop, and in-depth interviews with representatives from established institutional arrangements. The data collection efforts led to the development of 16 detailed case studies, each of which includes a review of the institution's accomplishments as well as lessons learned. Freight institutional arrangements can be grouped into three categories. Type I organiza- tions typically seek to increase the visibility and importance of freight issues and policies. Type I organizations often concentrate on education, consensus building, and general advocacy; an example might be a freight advisory committee for a metropolitan plan- ning organization. Type II organizations evaluate, prioritize, and fund freight projects in a particular region or of a particular type (e.g., freight rail). A state infrastructure bank, such as that in Washington State, is an example. Type III organizations are formed to implement a specific project, such as financing, environmental clearances, and negoti- ating contractual arrangements; an example explored here is the Alameda Corridor project. Forty guidelines are presented for Types I, II, and III. Examples are drawn from the case studies to help readers understand the guidelines and how to apply them. Guidance for getting started is provided for those beginning to develop an institutional arrangement. Depending on the type of arrangement being contemplated, one or more sets of guidelines may be applicable. Some institutions may evolve from Type I to Type II or Type III; others may remain focused on their original purpose. Report appendixes present the literature search (Appendix A); workshop materials (Appendix B); and detailed case studies (Appendix C). These appendixes are available on the CD-ROM enclosed with the print publication and can be downloaded from the TRB website (www.trb.org).

When the final horn sounded Thursday night at Madison Square Garden, one couldn't shake the sense that the Habs missed a big opportunity and let a chance at the Finals slip through their finger tips over these past ten days….an opportunity that doesn't figure to come around too often in the near future for Montreal.
A little extreme? Maybe. But there's no denying the breaks Montreal caught during its playoff run this year.
- Round one: the third-place Canadiens had the good fortune of running into a Ben Bishop-less Tampa Bay Lightning. All Bishop did this regular season was finish among the league leaders in most statistical categories and be named a finalist for the Vezina Trophy. Unfortunately for the Lightning the goalie suffered a season-ending injury and they were forced to turn to the backups. Tampa Bay's duo of Anders Lindback and Kristers Gudlevskis finished with a sub-.900 save percentage and a goals against average well above 3. Any one think a healthy Bishop could have done a little better than that? Who knows if Tampa would have won, but no doubt the series goes longer than four games.
- Round two: a well-rested Canadien squad drew its long-time rival Boston Bruins. While the Bruins were considered favorites, the older legs, especially of Zdeno Chara, started to tire. The Canadiens were able to pester the Bruins enough to get them off their game to upset them in game 7. It also helped that the Bruins hit about seven posts in the series and goaltender Carey Price played terrific throughout.
- Round three: thanks to the Rangers upsetting the Penguins, Montreal was gift-wrapped home-ice advantage and facing a goalie that they had dominated at the Bell Centre. So what happened? The Canadiens dropped the first two at home and could never get even-up in the series.
So even with a number of breaks, the Canadiens couldn't take full advantage and now have to wonder if they'll be able to get back there again soon.
(Yes, I know what Canadiens' fans are saying: "but we lost our goalie too." True, and it appeared to be a huge blow. But after watching that series, can anyone honestly say the Canadiens lost because of goaltending? In fact there were too many times during the series that rookie goalie Dustin Tokarski was the only reason why Montreal was even in games against the Rangers. The best example was during game 6 where Montreal played with the intensity of a pre-season game and Tokarski gave his team a chance to steal another game. Unfortunately for Tokarski the one goal he let up was too much for his teammates to overcome.)
So why will they struggle to be back in this position again? Well, the roster on the ice these playoffs will look very different come October. They currently have 11 players that are set to be restricted or unrestricted free agents this summer. No doubt they'll pony up the cash to retain dynamite defenseman PK Subban, but who else after that?
Tough decisions are coming on veteran defensemen Andrei Markov and Mike Weaver as well as captain Brian Gionta. All three were key contributors but are in the later stages of their careers and Montreal may be looking to move on from them. While the Canadiens appear to be in decent cap shape should they choose to sign all three, they also need to keep in mind that forwards Brendan Gallagher and Alex Galchenyuk will be due for raises soon and it'd come as no surprise to see all three veterans shown the door. Will their replacements, whether kids from the farm or outside the organization, be able to replace the production leaving the team? It'll be a tough task for sure. (I guess the Canadiens could try to re-sign Thomas Vanek, but all signs point to him bolting as soon as possible to Minnesota, despite his rough playoff performance.)
The Habs will also have to contend in the Atlantic with an up-and-coming Lightning team, perennial powerhouse Bruins, the Detroit Red Wing machine, and teams like the Ottawa Senators and Toronto Maple Leafs that both were in the playoffs last year. They will have to find ways to improve and stay competetive in its division knowing that one bad move, one bad injury, is all that stands between a playoff spot and sitting on the couch come April. All those teams figure to be in the mix again next year in the Atlantic.
Another issue that will hold back the Canadiens, and probably the most important, is the question marks on the blue line. Assuming they re-sign Subban (and they'd be crazy not to), it still leaves the team with holes on the blue line. Josh Gorges and Alexi Emelin are solid, but struggled with the speed of the Rangers (to be fair, Emelin was hurt game six). The youngsters who did see time on the blue line were often overwhelmed by the Ranger forwards and left Tokarski to fend for himself too frequently. With teams placing a greater emphasis on puck possession and speed, Montreal simply doesn't have the talent on the blue line for sustained success (just imagine if they had a guy back there like Ryan McDonagh to pair with Subban? Boy, those guys are hard to find though.)
The Canadien players all said the right thing after the game: they were proud of their team and promised better days were ahead. It's what their fans wanted to hear, but no question the players know they wasted a golden opportunity, one they may not be in a position to see for some time.

Candy Boy best in Robert Lewis Stakes
By Michael on Feb 09, 2014 with Comments 0
Candy Boy announced his arrival on the Kentucky Derby trail with a stylish score in the Robert B. Lewis Stakes (G2) Feb. 8 at Santa Anita.
Under Gary Stevens, Candy Boy won the 1 1/16-mile test by a half-length and covered the distance in 1:41.83 for trainer John Sadler.
"I just wanted Gary to be patient, because this horse runs a distance, no problem," said Sadler. "He kind of had a premature move in the (Dec. 14) CashCall. I think Gary will tell you that, you know, he moved him a little bit quick. Now he knows him a little better. He's been on him a couple times in the morning, so we felt good going into today's race."
When asked about Candy Boy's next start, Sadler left little doubt that it would be in the Grade 1, $1 million Santa Anita Derby on April 5.
"When you're looking around the United States, weather everywhere else is terrible, so right now, I'm staying right here. They had to cancel at Oaklawn (in Hot Springs, Ark.) on Friday, so we're not looking to go anywhere but to stay right in our own backyard."
Owned and bred in Kentucky by Lee and Susan Searing's CRK Stable, LLC, the 3-year-old colt by Candy Ride was the second choice at 2-1 and paid $6.60, $3.20 and $2.20. With the winner's share of $120,000, Candy Boy hiked his earnings to $305,600. He now has two wins and two seconds from six starts.
Perhaps most importantly, Candy Boy picked up 10 Kentucky Derby qualifying points for the win, while the second, third and fourth place finishers were awarded four, two and one, respectively.
With longshot Diamond Bachelor sent to the early lead by Julien Leparoux, 6-5 favorite Midnight Hawk, with Mike Smith up, sat a close third early, just off both Diamond Bachelor and eventual second place finisher Chitu, who like the favorite, is trained by Bob Baffert.
Although Midnight Hawk appeared to be sitting a comfortable trip just in behind splits of 23.33, 46.80, 1:10.84 and 1:35.64, he struggled the final eighth, finishing third, 1 ¾ lengths behind the winner.
"For a big horse he has a lot of acceleration and confidence on the (last) turn," said Stevens of the winner. "I was closer than I thought we were going to be today. He's grown a lot lately…but he's also grown mentally too. I've been up for his last five works and I've been so impressed and so far we haven't really squeezed the trigger.
"The gallop out was huge today and I was already thinking about the Santa Anita Derby as we were galloping out around the (Club House) turn. It was a lot of fun and he didn't even take a deep breath after the race. He's a super, majorly talented racehorse."
Undefeated Midnight Hawk, who was favored on the strength of his win in the one mile, Grade III Sham Stakes Jan. 11, tried to stay with Chitu the final eighth, but was third best, finishing 4 ¼ lengths in front of Diamond Bachelor. He paid $2.10 to show.
"He ran well today," said Smith of the favorite. "Those were our best 3-year-olds, so I was really hoping he would kick on when I asked him. He was a bit keen early on. I really can't give him a lot of excuses. I mean, I was there at the quarter pole and I wasn't at the wire…He didn't lug in at all…He just didn't kick on."

got a lovely Parking charge notice from ukcps within 5 minutes of parking in a retail park, apparently I was observed leaving the site. Have now had a letter telling me I owe £100,is to say the least a very poor example of a company letter. Should I hold my nerve and do nothing? Also has anyone else taken it up with the DVLA or their MP as to why our private addresses are given so freely to these organisations. Does this not make a mockery of the Date Protection that everyone seems to bang on about?
I'd challenge it and ask them to provide evidence. Do you have proof that you paid?
It was a free carpark so no we did not pay. One of those nice retail parks. Right opposite a large shopping complex.
Martin Lewis did a programme the other night on parking fines and most of them don't need to be paid at all. You may still be able to view it on Iplayer or something. A lot of these companies just try it on and enough people pay them that it's worth them continuing.
It was an excellent insight into the way these corrupt car park companies operate by fear and extortion .
Just disgraceful .
I think that some crooks just sit around thinking about the best/easiest ways to scam people and they kind of hook onto areas where we are most vulnerable. Ie they know we are all aware that you could be fined if you park in certain spots; they know we know that clamping terrifies the hell out of us - so they set up shop, looking all official and try to scare the hell out of us till we pay.
I'll bet loooooooooads of people have paid a scam co. parking fine or clamping money because they thought they had no option. It's scandalous!!!
Hi susie58 and welcome.
This smacks of greedy corporate enforcement! Are you saying that by observing you leaving the site, it was concluded that you were not going to spend any money in the retail park? And were there enforcement notices actually spelling out that you will be charged if you leave the site? Do people not have the right to find, say, a public toilet and return to do your shopping? And was there an overall time limit for which you could park?
I am at a loss to understand what is going on here ..... and yes, write to YOUR MP regarding this outrage and of course your issue with DVLC SELLING their register details for profit.
Thanks for your reply. I arrived there five minutes before the ticket was issued and yes there were signs saying they will fine you if you left the site, but I did not see the personon issueing the tickets and was back within 10 minutes of arriving.....the ticket says I left the site not that I overstayed or anything else. Fuming does not even come close on this one. I will be contacting my MP regarding their practice and my concerns at the DVLC buying details.
It is ONLY a Parking Charge not a Penalty Charge, so ignore this and the next few threatening requests for a payment.
Do not reply to the letter.
Thank you, I'm not going to pay - cant anyway as I just dont have the cash. Still fuming about it. Will be complaining bitterly to MP tho.
It's a pathetic joke .
Don't pay .
Tell the assh^les to prove it .
DVLA are corrupt .
It amazes me how DVLA choose to ignore Data Protection legislation , and sell our details to anyone prepared to pay !
It is CORRUPTION !
We have a similar problem a couple of miles from me. We have 2 retail sites literally right next to each other, and there is a specially designed footpath from one to the other. Both car parks are free if you use the shops, and people have always parked in one but shopped in both sites.
But I read recently that they intend to fine you a lot of money if you park in one of the car parks and walk to the other site (all of a minute or two's walk) without moving your car from one car park to the other car park.
What's worse....is that the road from one to the other is extremely busy and extremely slow moving, and it would take you ages to get back in your car, wait ages to get out onto the main road, crawl a few feet at a time, and then wait ages to get in the other car park and park there!
It seems to me Fruitcake that the freedom of the individual is being slowly but surely eroded every day ..... to actually have to spy on people to ascertain that they are 'illegally' walking from one site to the other without taking their car with them is deplorable .... technology has a lot to answer for, for sure, but this means tracking the car and it's driver as two separate records .... this is taking CCTV to new heights if invasion, unless this whole thing is logged by little uniformed jobsworths with clip boards?
I've no idea how people's movements will be recorded, Snoops. I've never seen anyone checking the cars or people, but then I haven't been specifically looking. There's bound to be CCTV there of course. I don't think it's really about freedom of movement, I think it's about making money out of 'free' car parks! It's completely crazy, as the entrances to the two car parks are all of a few hundred yards away from each other!
I wonder how much they'll make by the time they've paid someone to look at the tapes and all the admin??
Heck fruity there is a Retail Outlet a few miles away which is situated exactly as you have said with Asda at one side then a path and the outlet at the other with two parking areas (one in each) so I wonder if they will do that to them one day. I will keep an eye open for this and thank you for your posting.
It's quite a common set up isn't it, and you'd have to be loopy to drive from one to another, apart from fuel cost, what about the damage to the environment?
Well, it wouldn't cost much in fuel or environmental damage, Jazz, as the exit of one car park and the entrance of the other is all of a couple of hundred yards! That's why it's so utterly stupid to expect people to move their cars. And you could so easily not be able to get a space in the other one once you've moved it, and then have to go home....so the shops will lose out big time!
I always thought short journeys did the most damage as the engine hadn't warmed up properly....? More than happy to admit I'm wrong!
Not saying that you're wrong, Jazz, because you're not, just saying it's such a short distance it's hardly worth starting the engine, you could push your car to the other car park, and it would be quicker than driving the few yards because of the heavy traffic. I wouldn't use my car to go to the end of my street of 8 houses and that's all the distance it is! That's why they built the footpath between the two shopping sites and the footpath is about 10 yards long :-)
My thoughts exactly! But will it pay off if people start going somewhere else to shop? I hope it hasn't been implemented yet and also hope it never does happen.
Where else do you go??? If you can't go to the town centre because of horrendous parking fees, and now the out of town ones are starting, we#ll all be shopping online!
That's exactly the same as ours. Crackers to have to move the car to another parking area which is about 2 minutes away and very busy in both car parks.
So ridiculous, isn't it, Sabre?! You'd think since the retailers are so desperate for us to spend, they would object to these stupid ideas.
Wow! I can't believe what I'm reading. Don't pay. It's the last thing you should do. I think that they just hope that people will be afraid and will pay up straight away. If you don't it'll probably be too much trouble/cost to pursue you. And yes - definitely contact your MP - on the couple of occasions I've contacted mine, they've been very helpful and sorted out my problems completely.
Ignore the request. Some would advise that you shouldn't even reply but I have in the past and placed the onus of proof on them.
I have also informed them that I would not be paying their charge as it was unfair and unreasonable and certainly not befitting of their alleged "offence".
Rest assured this is a civil matter issued by a privately operated company.
Their site will give the impression of legitimacy and that they appear to have a legal authority. They haven't. They issue Penalty Charge Notice's in a style that suggests it is a legal document. It isn't!
Non-payment will not give you a criminal record.
I would add that if this was issued by the police or a local authority parking attendant then that is a different matter altogether and they have very clear procedures for appealing a ticket.
When you receive any further letters from them, ignore them too but keep them in a file.
If they understand from the outset that you are not going to play ball with them, they know that the only way to get money out of you is to take you to court and this they will be reluctant to do as this will cost them considerably more than what they are asking from you and there is no certainty that a court will rule in their favour.
This is nothing more than bully boy tactics and I'd go so far as to say extortion.
Keep everything you receive from them. If they unreasonably persist then you may well have a claim for harassment.
Send them an invoice for £120, as that is your hourly charge for the time spent reading and responding to their letter, also place on the back that sending you another letter or responding to this letter is acceptance of the invoice and your terms and conditions ;-)
Payment to be made within 7 days of receipt of the letter ;-)
I have sent more than a few invoices and admin charges. I use to send my bank one everytime they messed up, if they told me a cheque would clear on a certain day and it didn't, £30 charge, if a transfer took longer than expected, £30 charge ;-)
They paid every time.
I parked in a retail car park today which allowed 3 hours free parking. I arrived at 9.45 and left at 11.50. When I got back to my car I had a ticket, parking attendant was no where in sight and had not been in sight when I arrived. I think they just go round making it up and see if they can get away with it.
I think you may well be right.
These jobs worth's feel they have a little bit of power and rather than act in a responsible manner, abuse their role.
They may well be on a commission or target incentives and the more tickets they issue the more benefits they gain.
I suspect that these unregulated industries act on the belief that if you issue enough tickets then some poor unsuspecting person will pay up without questioning.
I call this practice extortion and fraud and the sooner government legislates to curb these private companies power the better.
Additionally, another approach would be to write to the stores that make up the retail park and state that the company they have employed to manage their car parks are exploiting potential customers and intimidating shoppers away with their extortionate practices.
Another way of scamming is the no return within x hours. You buy something with a problem and go back to the shop and get a ticket for returning within the specified time. This is when you use the sale of goods act whereby the retailer is responsible for ALL charges relating to the rectification of faulty/damaged goods.(Did you know that?) Didn't argue, just passed the ticket charge straight back to the supermarket concerned. No more heard.
hi everyone, update on the lovely UKCPS company, Recieved one letter telling me not to ignore notice and this week received another from Court Proceedings Ltd London, informing me that the have been instructed to recover the debt in full (£120) in the next seven days. Failure to comply will result in court action being progressed for the original debt in full plus associated costs which could exceed £325.
I need some help with this one as I fully intend to take it to court and fight them, aswell as claiming for my expenses so if any one has had one of these letters and has had the final court papers I would love to know how you proceeded and if there any any draft letters etc?
Checking on other sites it seems people get several letters before the treat of court - I only had the one. Are the hotting up and actually carrying out their threats lately or am I just unlucky?
As far as I am aware, Court Proceedings Ltd are part of UKCPS and aren't even a debt collection company. In fact they had their CCA licence removed last year.
I don't believe they can operate legally as a debt collection company. This is not an enforcable fine, it is just an invoice.
http://www2.crw.gov.uk/pr/default.aspx if you want to search it.
Licence number 0638653
Oh and also, don't give out any information which would identify you to them as it is likely that they read the forums on posts about them. If anyone you don't know PM's you with advice, also be careful.
If you feel inclined, ask for photographic proof of leaving the carpark and also proof that they are licenced to operate as a debt collector.
In there letter do they admit to being part of UKCPS or try to make you believe they are seperate?
I'm a bit confused about all this. I've had a notice from UKCPS saying I overstayed the 90 minutes free parking limit at a Retail Park. I think I probably did overstay this time limit. Should I be paying?

Bridgetown, Barbados: The West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) and Digicel, proud sponsor of cricket in the West Indies today announced details of the Digicel Youth Cricket Development Programme. The two-year agreement will see youth development clinics take place in all WICB territorial boards – Barbados, Guyana, Jamaica, Leeward Islands, Windward Islands and Trinidad and Tobago – with hundreds of aspiring young cricketers being coached in the basic skills of the game, with a view to creating a pool of talented young West Indian cricketers.
Jamaica recorded the first victory of the West Indies Cricket Board's Women's 50-Over League when they trounced Barbados by eight wickets on Thursday. The Jamaicans, who are joint favourites for the title along with Trinidad and Tobago, strolled to 100-2 off 29 overs after dismissing the Bajans for 99 off 46 overs.
Kingstown, St Vincent – The West Indies Cricket Board Women's League 50-over Tournament 2010 gets underway today in St Vincent. In their opening match host St Vincent won the toss and opted to bat first against Grenada at the Arnos Vale 2 ground.
The match between Trinidad and Tobago has been moved from Sion Hill due to a wet ground and is now slated to be played at Victoria Park. There will be a delayed start.
Updates in the St Lucia v Dominica (at Stubbs) and Jamaica v Barbados (Arnos Vale 1) encounters are to follow shortly.
In order to aid in protecting the integrity of cricket in the region, for the first time the West Indies Cricket Board has decided compile and publicly announce the complete list of all approved cricket within its jurisdiction.
"The WICB takes very seriously it's responsibility in overseeing cricket in the West Indies and as such we are making public the list of approved cricket so that there can be no doubt by any stakeholder as to what matches or events are approved by the WICB," WICB CEO Dr. Ernest Hilaire outlined.
Shane Burton, the Leeward Islands batsman, smashed an amazing 16 sixes as he made a magnificent 172 from just 103 balls in the final round of matches in the TCL Group-sponsored West Indies Cricket Board Under-19 One-Day Trophy matches played on Wednesday in St Lucia.

Third-World Lessons for First-World Medical TechnologyMay 21, 2013 – 10:43 am
Peter Blair Henry, dean of the NYU Stern School of Business, recently published a book titled, Turnaround: Third World Lessons for First World Growth, that got a fair amount of media attention. His thesis is that emerging economies are applying economic policies nurtured in the developed economies and prospering in the process. Meanwhile, western economies have lost their moorings, and are suffering as a consequence. The book has gotten mixed reviews, but it did start me thinking about other lessons that emerging economies can teach us, specifically in the medical technology space. I bounced the idea off Gunjan Bagla, founder and CEO of Amritt Inc., a global innovation consultancy that has worked with the likes of Covidien, Becton Dickinson, J&J and Roche Diagnostics. He will be speaking at MD&M East during the Globalization, Compliance and Commercialization track. He agrees that emerging markets are rife with teachable moments.
Frugal engineering entered the popular lexicon a few years back after Carlos Ghosn, the head of Renault and Nissan, described it as "achieving more with fewer resources." Rather than stripping down technologies imported from western economies to make them affordable in the developing world, the idea is to design products that serve the needs of a specific population while avoiding needless costs. The Nano car from Tata Motors is one example. GE Healthcare has been a poster child for this movement in the healthcare space since it launched a low-cost portable electrocardiogram in 2008. Its R&D centre in India plans to roll out 20 new healthcare products this year, according to the Financial Times. In the process, GE Healthcare also discovered a ready market for these low-cost innovations in advanced economies, where healthcare budgets are going under the knife.
It's about time for this conceptual shift, says Bagla. The notion that you can solve healthcare problems in emerging economies by "stripping down so-called perfect western products to good-enough products is a primitive way of dealing with the needs [of those populations]. Breakthrough innovators in the medical device sector need to think of how to address the needs of 4 billion people rather than the top 1 billion or so by income. This often requires revolutionary design, manufacturing, use models and distribution processes. What could be more exciting and fertile ground for a true innovator?" asks Bagla.
Bagla cites the Lullaby Warmer developed at GE Healthcare's Bangalore facility as one recent made-in-India success story that transcends national borders. The neonatal bed with an overhead heater "was conceived and manufactured to respond to conditions in India," says Bagla. "But the device has turned out to be quite popular in modern European hospitals." The device is not available—tellingly?—in the United States.
Where telemedicine fulfills its promise
In countries such as India with challenging geographies and an underdeveloped healthcare infrastructure, telemedicine may find it easier to gain traction than in the western world. "Inventors in the United States are often stifled by concerns of legal liabilty and restrictions on the practice of medicine across state or national boundaries," notes Bagla. "But knowledge knows no boundaries and today telemedicine is being embraced in emerging economies." The technology allows the government to leapfrog the hugely expensive option of building hospitals or having practitioners spend days travelling by allowing healthcare providers to connect with patients remotely. "Eventually, some of the innovations [pioneered in emerging economies] will make it past the thicket of lawyers, regulations and third party processes," says Bagla.
Access to affordable healthcare is not just a life-or-death issue in emerging economies. As Gopi Katragadda, Managing Director, GE India Technology Center, writes on the Forbes India blog:
"I spent quality time in the recent weeks with a small working group developing an understanding of affordable healthcare. I was surprised to learn that affordable healthcare is a significant problem not only in emerging economies but in the western world, as well. In the United States, as an example, 27% of the population has serious problems paying their medical bills."
The time is ripe—some might say urgent—to rethink the parameters of medtech innovation. In some respects, we might start by asking, what would India do?
MD&M East in Philadelphia will feature an overview of the global medical technology landscape in terms of compliance and commercialisation as part of its conference programme. Bagla will be among the featured speakers at the session on 19 June 2013. The MD&M East conference runs from 17 to 20 June; the exhibition starts a day later on 18 June.

We've been made aware of an input validation failure affecting multiple
KDE applications. (The details are not yet public as we're working on
the fixes.) We'd like a CVE for this.
The Arora and Rekonq web browsers are also vulnerable to the same attack
vector, and other Qt-based programs may be as well. We're working with
the Qt team to help enhance their documentation to warn developers to
take care sanitizing their inputs, but it's not actually a Qt flaw. So
we're a bit unsure how to proceed here. Do we get separate CVEs for
Arora and Rekonq? Do we lump both of those into the same CVE as the KDE
applications? I would think the former since other applications may be
found to be vulnerable down the line, but wanted to check.
(The Rekonq team has been made aware and are currently patching their
code; I'm in the process of trying to notify the Arora team.)

I tried some stout porters with some Steins for my birthday last weekend. We started with Black Butte Porter and Obsidian Stout from Deschutes, dark and darker.
Then we moved on to selections from Southern Tier's Blackwater Series. Jahva, Choklat, and Creme Brulee. The names say it all. Jahva tasted like smooth, chocolaty espresso with a nice crema on top. The Choklat was like chocolate milk or hot cocoa gone cold. I was expecting to find unblended syrup on the bottom. And the Creme Brulee was — it was divisive. On one hand sweet and milky, on the other cloying and tooth decaying.
And we finished the night with a fresh bottle of the Abyss. Definitely darker and more complex than the beer that came before. Where the Blackwater beers hit one note and stuck with it, the Abyss is a bit harder to pin down. Roasted and chocolaty, yet dry and fruity. Definitely a good end for the night.

This review is from: inland 08416 2.5" Black SATA USB 2.0 External Enclosure
Pros: Do there job. I bout two of these for laptop drives i switched out for ssd's. Solid after sassembled but the screw holes arent the best.
Cons: These are just black metal mesh and plastic with a sata connection no bumpers on inside or outside so dont drop them.

Works well, if it doesn't break
This review is from: inland 08416 2.5" Black SATA USB 2.0 External Enclosure
Pros: Works just as I expected. I hooked up multiple HDDs and SSDs using the SATA interface to connect to different computers. The cable length is nice, weights very little, and the aesthetically pleasing exterior is a plus.
Cons: Mine broke while in my car and the case was lying in my cupholder. It seems like there was some pressure being applied to the usb port, when I took it out, the cable was moving around oddly. Turns out the miniusb port on the PCB got ripped off. Had it been just the solder, I could have soldered it back, but the entire contacts came off. At closer look, the exterior port is extremely flimsy and can't handle any pressure. Any good design would have mounted it to the enclosure, or at least put some epoxy on the miniusb port. Now I have 2 useless external hard drive enclosures (My fault on first one, got IDE), and I can no longer bring my hard drive around like I wanted to on my soon to come vacation.
Other Thoughts: Conclusion: If you are careful with it, it's fine. However, I would not recommend this product due to its poor construction.

Great Deal
This review is from: inland 08416 2.5" Black SATA USB 2.0 External Enclosure
Pros: Great price. I used this to convert an older sata laptop drive into external storage and it works just great. No need for external power source, the usb on my Asus laptop supplies enough. I used this with a regular 120GB disk type HDD. I may be purchasing another one soon. This is a really good deal for the price.
Cons: Because it is low cost, it does not heavy duty but it does what it is intended to do.
Other Thoughts: Although it does not show it in the picture, there are 4 screws in a bag that come with it to lock the lid onto the enclosure.

Decent, Cheap
This review is from: inland 08416 2.5" Black SATA USB 2.0 External Enclosure
Pros: Decent. Cheap. Quiet. Solid. Simple.
Cons: Buy it on sale.

Works Cheap
This review is from: inland 08416 2.5" Black SATA USB 2.0 External Enclosure
Pros: It is cheap and it works. I put a 300GB notebook drive in it and Windows 7 saw it and allowed me to reportition it and make it an active drive. It rand fine off of the single USB cable that was pluged into a powered USB hub.
Cons: It appears to be a knock-off of the reliable Eagle enclosure.

it along(as I have already worked in different scripting languages).
Kindly guide me.
Hello Deeraj, thanks for introducing yourself. You've already seen the
ideas page, also see these for more information if you haven't already:
You should decide what kind of scripts you want to specialize in: web
scanning, vulnerability/exploitation, or discovery. If you are selected,
you will work with your mentor to make a list of scripts to write. But
in your formal proposal, you should have a list of ideas that match your
skills. You can feel free to share your ideas here so you can get
feedback on them.
My previous projects:
1.Title:Mini Operating System (Project OS Atom)
Platform: GNU/Linux Tool Chain, nasm.
Description : It's an mini operating system to facilitate study of
operating systems. Designed and created by me under guidance of CSE
faculties of institute. Currently maintained and hosted on
http://osatom.wordpress.com by myself. It's an open source project.
2.Title:OpenGEN Parser.
Platform: Python.
Description: This project is aimed at collecting genetic data
(ref,organism type, amino acid
sequence etc.) and convert them to universal fasta format for further
processing. Currently hosted at
https://launchpad.net/opengenparser. It's an Open Source project and
was cited for its use in an
International Medical Journal.
That's impressive, to have a project that you maintain yourself.
Previous involvement with open source is also helpful, so remember to
mention this in your formal proposal.
