I have and 2 and 3 year old attending this school. They've been enrolled for about a year now, and came from a different school down the street. Having a bad experience with their old school, we were very hesitant about this one being any different...it was the best choice I could've ever made! My children are always so content! They learn on a daily basis as they bring home activities and worksheets daily! The teachers are great with the children!! I love how every day there is a specific theme, even during summer months! My little one has a speech delay and the owner and director provided me with the tools and resources to get him the help he needed! If your unsure as to enrolling your children into this school...it's a no brainer! This school is absolutely wonderful!!
I have found the staff at Alphabet Kidz to be the most caring, helpful and understanding daycare staff that I've come across. I am totally confident that my 15 month old son being mentally stimulated during the day but emotionally nurtured at the same time. I highly recommend this school to anyone who needs daycare in the Middlesex, NW Piscataway area.
New owners are great with excellent staff. Many updates and renovations since taking over. Unmatched security for kids safety. Great cirriculum and activities both in and out of classroom. My child has been there two years and I wish they had a kindergarden program so I could keep her there next year!
The new owner is wonderful. I would recamend this school to anyone. The place is like new now. Very happy with the school now. It has grown since they have taken over. And the staff is just wonderful and kind with the kids. I'm very happy with this school.
It is under new ownership and has been remodeled. Plus painted and new rugs. It is a lovely place and I would send my Kids there now,. Love the place. Great Owner and great Staff.

November 28, 2014
The City of Grand Junction has released the ten most dangerous intersections list, which caused more than 131 accidents combined last year. The most dangerous intersection in 2004 was at Redlands Parkway and State Highway 340, or Broadway.
A distant second was the intersection of Seventh street and Glenwood avenue, and in third is 28 1/4 Road and Orchard Avenue,
but officials with the public works department say the intersection isn't always what causes an accident. A study shows driver behavior causes 85% of all accidents, while the roadway itself only causes 10% of accidents.
Each year, the city takes the results of the accident report and maps out what intersections have roadway issues that can be fixed. They say some of the problems are easier to spot than others. Hazard elimination grants fund several of the city's current projects, such as the roundabout at 24 ½ and G Road, as well as the new right turn lane going in at 7th Street and Patterson Road.
Currently, the public works department is focusing its efforts on the I–70 business loop. Officials say increased commercial development has led to an increase in traffic problems.

Time To Focus On The Important Issues
Statement by Assemblyman Brian M. Kolb (R,C,I-Canandaigua)
March 17, 2008
"Today, we witnessed history as Governor David Paterson was sworn in as our 55th state Executive. Although the circumstances leading to today's event were unfortunate, I join my colleagues in the state Legislature in wishing the new Governor all the best.
We must put the Spitzer scandal behind us and get back to work, focusing on issues of importance to every New Yorker, which include passing a fiscally sound, on-time state budget. Only then can we, as public servants, begin the exceptionally hard work of regaining the public trust and restoring the hope that 'Day One' was supposed to bring."

Don't lower threshold on drunken driving
- Written by LZ Granderson/CNN
Celebrity mugshots are hilarious, aren't they?
The disheveled hair, the smeared makeup, the ridiculous attempt by some to still try to look "hot" despite the circumstances. The most iconic post-arrest shot is Nick Nolte circa 2002. He looks as if he went through a carwash riding on the hood. The mugshot even has its own Twitter handle.
Yeah, it's all fun and games until you read why these celebrities were arrested in the first place.
Nolte was brought in for suspicion of driving under the influence. Wynonna Judd was arrested in 2003, accused of the same thing. As was Nicole Richie in 2006 and Kiefer Sutherland in 2007.
Knicks point guard Jason Kidd is lucky to be alive. He was arrested in 2012 after running into a utility pole.
Todd Harrell, the bassist for the band 3 Doors Down, is also fortunate to be alive. In April, he was charged with vehicular homicide when the car he was driving clipped a pickup and crashed into a retaining wall. Unfortunately, the truck he hit swerved out of control, hit a guardrail, dropped down an embankment and overturned, killing the driver.
When that happens, the mugshots of celebrity drunken drivers become less funny.
This week, the National Transportation Safety Board recommended all 50 states decrease the blood alcohol content threshold for drunken driving from 0.08 percent to 0.05 percent. The goal is to have zero deaths from alcohol-related car accidents. Noble but unattainable if our attitude about drinking and driving doesn't change.
In 2010, adults self-reported drinking and driving about 112 million times. Only 1.4 million drivers – about 1 percent – were arrested. In other words, if someone has had one too many drinks and gets behind the wheel of a car 100 times in a year, they might get caught once. How do you convince a nation that gets away with a crime 99 percent of the time that it's a serious matter?
We can talk about the deaths, but let's be honest – more than 10,000 people dying each year because of alcohol-impaired crashes is sad.
But more teens die from texting and driving than drinking and driving. So, shouldn't we put more energy into that instead?
To really move the needle on any issue of importance, it helps to make it a personal matter as it is a legal one.
The Center for Disease Control and Prevention estimates that 85 percent of self-reported drunken drivers were binge drinkers. For men, that constitutes at least five drinks in an hour. Five drinks raises your level to .10 percent. So instead of using resources to lobby for a new federal law that lowers the threshold, the NTSB should direct its influence on helping states enforce the current one.
If more people were caught, the less other people would feel that they could get away with it.
Lowering the blood alcohol threshold does nothing if we don't increase the number of checkpoints so people can be arrested for breaking the current law. And you could fund this increase in checkpoints by doing something the World Health Organization recommends: imposing a tax on alcoholic beverages.
For a 180-pound man, as little as two beers could cause his blood alcohol content to reach 0.05. How many elected officials are really going to want to fight food and beverage lobbyists in addition to bar and restaurant owners for that? A slight increase in price to fund an initiative to arrest drunken drivers will not only discourage binge drinking (because it's more expensive to do so), but it is a message that's easier to sell to a nation that consumed 6.3 billion gallons of beer in 2011.
Maybe then instead of dismissing the Noltes and Lindsay Lohans of the world as being stupid enough to get caught, the public would view celebrities who are arrested for drunken driving as reminders that they could be caught, too.
Because at the end of the day, the NTSB can try to pass all the laws it wants, but if people don't get caught, then the law is toothless. That's part of the reason why celebrity mugshots are so funny because those fools got caught.
But drunken driving would be less funny to everyone if more people were greeted at a checkpoint with a Breathalyzer.

Paris Jackson, Debbie Rowe Vacation in Hawaii; Teen Still Faces Years of Therapyby Free Britney at . Comments
Paris Jackson looks healthy and happy vacationing with her mom Debbie Rowe in Hawaii, but she is far from out of the woods regarding her ongoing treatment.
Debbie Rowe and Paris have been posing together for the camera during their entire trip, and a series of adorable selfies have been making the rounds.
Rowe lost contact with Paris and her two brothers after she divorced Michael Jackson, but reconnected a little over a year ago following Paris' initiative.
Mother and daughter have since become extremely close.
Rowe speaks constantly with Paris, who is at a boarding school in Utah after her tragic suicide attempt and extended hospitalization in L.A. last year.
She stands to gain nothing financially from this, FYI.
Rowe received a generous divorce settlement from MJ and has made no overtures toward regaining custody or legal guardianship of Paris Jackson.
She's just there for her as a maternal figure, and a good thing, too. Paris' mental health issues run deep, and she will most likely require years of treatment.
We wish her only the best going forward.
All of MichaelS kids Except Blanket are old enough to realize that Debbie abandoned them and at this point Debbie wants money and I don't think They will have any of the opportunities they will have living with the Jackson family as opposed to living with Debbie cuz I don't think she has any contacts and her life style is not what they are use to.
Who leaked this picture online? Was it Debbie Rowe? The last thing a teenager with mental issues needs is having her pictures on the internet. She should stay out of the media spotlight. She is not a celebrity. She is just an average girl who was born to a famous father, that's all. She was already overexposed for no reason before her suicide attempt, that's why now she shouls stay away from the media.
Yes, it was Debbie Rowe who posted the pictures of her daughter. On HER personal facebook. So it wasn't 'leaked' it was in a video that she posted. For friends to see I suppose. I saw it, but I didn't steal it like everyone else of Paris' supposed 'fans'. Debbie posted it first.

Baby Bash Biography
Review The Artist (40)
Source: http://www.babybashmusic.com/main.html
Baby Bash does not consider himself a rapper. "I'm more of a spitter," he offers. "I might rap, I might sing, I might make some funny noises. I don't try to freestyle (spontaneous rhyming) and battle everybody. I just try to make something that'll stick to the ribs."
Don't let the name or his baby-face fool you. Baby Bash, the next big thing from Houston's ever growing Latino Rap scene, is poised and ready to cross over to mainstream stardom with the smash single, "Suga Suga" from his new album, The Smokin' Nephew. Happy Perez, whose credits include hits for southern clientele including Master P and Mystikal, produced the entire album.
Baby Bash and Happy Perez's chemistry in the studio has resulted in a sonically pleasing blend of thumping hip-hop beats, addictive grooves and melody. "Happy P is the dopest producer ever," adds Bash. "Our formula is the beats go on and I swear to God, the beats tell me how to say it and what to say. It sets the mood. Happy puts [on] a lot of good melodies, a lot of good music…real music. He plays live bass and live guitar. I can go to a gangster low rider show and do hardcore rap songs, hop on the plane the next day go to an all American college and do my alternative, folk type rap, then go to a Ja Rule, Mary J. Blige [type] show, and do some mainstream R&B. I'm like a chameleon, I adapt to wherever I'm at."
Bash (alternately called Bash and Beesh by fans) is originally from Vallejo, CA, part of Cali's "Bay Area." He got his start in the groups Potna Deuce and Latino Velvet (which consisted of Kid Frost and Jay Tee of legendary Chicano rap group N2Deep). He was drawn to Houston after being exposed to its emerging Latin Rap scene by his work with South Park Mexican. "I did some songs with SPM and it started blowing up," explains Bash. "He had shows every weekend. I was going back and forth and I figured I might as well stay out there." He jokingly adds, "Plus, California's rent was going up like skyscrapers."
High on life, amongst other things, Bash cites musical influences ranging from hometown rap favorites like E-40, Mac Dre and Too Short, funk idols like Con Funk Shun and Sly & the Family Stone, down to Steel Pulse and even Tom Petty. "My uncles they were all homeboys. I grew up on a lot of oldies." Bash's eclectic taste explains why "Suga Suga" is such a sultry mix of soothing and funky vocals over an intoxicating baseline. But, Bash himself rhetorically asks: "You got some great rappers that are hard as fuck and vicious but can they write a hit?" Baby Bash can and "Suga Suga" isn't the only Ace in his hand.
Tracks like the Crunk-dafied "Yeh Suh!," the sensual "Sexy Eyes" or the sexcapade tales over playful guitar plucks of "Early in the Morning" not only showcase his flair for creating memorable songs but also his musical diversity. From the West Coast to Texas, the self-proclaimed "Latino Deniro" is here to make his mark, with style and substance. The beats are hot, but Baby Bash tries to really say something with his jams.
Baby Bash has been through some hard times. His Mexican mother and Anglo father weren't really around much in his youth. "My parents were in prison while I grew up," says Bash. "So my Grandma Fuarez, raised me. I was always with my Latin side of the family." Though he missed the influence of his parents in his life, he was a self-motivated artist. The fact that Baby Bash is still recording after all these years (The Smokin' Nephew is his third solo album to date) is a testament to his drive and determination.

Actually I have read many Justice League comics from many eras and that is not the approach to Wonder Woman that existed for…..the majority of the time there has been a Wonder Woman. That is a Wonder Woman designed to appeal to boys.
#17 is just a classic example of polygon-shaming. You should be better than this, Luke Lewis.
Pretty sure The Shawshank Redemption is about a magical black prisoner played by Morgan Freeman who helps white prisoners realize they're all good people who don't deserve to be in jail with black people.
No it's not. I personally deal with this every day as a person who lives off a local R stop between two express N stops.
The fact that brought "Resentment" and "Ring the Alarm" back specifically for this tour suggests that she's got something on her mind and making a point.
That was his birthplace, but not where he lived when he was a meat purveyor.
There's a lot of truth in this if we're ONLY talking about the non-canonical movie version.
She is one of the results!
Two actually — Dark Knight Returns Batman and the 00s Batman, which is basically the All Star Batman & Robin version.
Nearly every result includes similar adjacent neighborhoods – Prospect/Lefferts are suggested with Park Slope.
I made this quiz and lived in Astoria for nearly seven years!
If you like Janelle Monae a lot, I say go with Midnite Vultures.
That's why it's "awkward."
That will come soon.
Dookie came out in 1994, man!
See, I would say very much the opposite. Hating Cyclops is usually a sign that you mostly just know the cartoons and movies (which kinda suck and are strictly non-canon, IMO.)
Nothing you have ever done has made me feel as old as this, Dave.
That book came out in 2005!
That album is not actually from 2013. We did feature it in one of our year-end posts in 2012!
Now and forever - Luke's Diner and Al's Pancake World.
That's because this is the electronic music list, and the dance list is forthcoming! We broke it up because we didn't want to give short shrift to artists who are more ambient/arty/etc.
This is basically a list of reasons why Cyclops is the best and most interesting member of the X-Men.
Yeah — part of it, lots of records come out the same day but not a lot of them have any decent claim on being a classic and/or a blockbuster.
See, you say that, but then you do the research and it's a lot less common than you think.
Sloan has been based in Toronto for many years! That's where Chris and Jay live.
This is not really a review, it's a recommendation! Believe me, you will know it if I am writing a review.
Just roll with it, Jennifer.
As far as I am concerned, the only version of the X-Men that matters is the 616 main continuity version that has been running for 50 years. Bringing in licensed and non-canonical versions just complicates matters.
One of the rules we're operating on here is that a character's death must last at least a few issues. Blinking out doesn't count. Like, a similar thing happened to Cyclops in Battle for the Atom #1 just recently, but it doesn't count.
Nope, that was pushed to 2014.
This is very, very accurate.
When I set out to make this post, I actually had a list of maybe 35-40 venues, and The Marquee was on that list for sure. I basically narrowed things down to stuff I knew HAD to be there because they were so famous, and the logistics of finding them all while there was still sunlight in one afternoon.
THANK YOU. I was incredibly frustrated when I was out trying to find this address, and basically had to do a "process of elimination" thing, and all the research I did about this was…inconclusive. It was especially aggravating because The Academy is BY FAR the venue with the most sentimental attachment for me, as it was the place where I saw my very first show in 1995. (Sonic Youth!)

There are so many legitimate reasons not to fly nowadays. TSA groping, add on fees after add on fees, lost luggage, delayed flights, and now seats so cramped if you put a moslem in one the ACLU would call it torture.I have no idea why the airlines manage to stay in business. One thing is sure, its not from any money I spend. I drive.

I´m with the guy who used the knee defender. It seems that every time I fly, the person in front of me reclines. It makes an already uncomfortable situation even worse. The airline should just make the seats stationary. They aren´t really concerned about your comfort anyway. Problem solved.

Baleka Mbete (born 24 September 1949), also known as Baleka Mbete-Kgositsile, is a South African politician who has been Speaker of the National Assembly of South Africa since 21 May 2014. Previously she was Speaker of the National Assembly from 2004 to 2008 and Deputy President of South Africa from 2008 to 2009 under Kgalema Motlanthe.
She was elected National Chairperson of the ANC in 2007 and reelected in 2012.[1]
She received a teacher's certificate from Lovedale Teachers' College and taught in Durban.
After going into exile Mbete taught in Mbabane, and went on to work for the African National Congress in several other African cities including Dar es Salaam, Nairobi, Gaborone, Harare, and Lusaka.
She led the Medu Art Ensemble, was the secretary-general of ANC Women's League from 1991 to 1993, and the Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly of South Africa from 1996 to 2004.
Mbete was a member of the Presidential Panel on the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, the ANC National Executive Committee,[2] and the Pan-African Parliament.
In 2007 Mbete became the ANC's national chairperson.[3]
Mbete is a shareholder in Dyambu Holdings[4] which is involved in building the massive Gautrain public transport project in the province Gauteng. Dyambu Holdings is reported to have had links with murdered magnate Brett Kebble.[5]
In April 1997, Mbete was found to have received an improperly issued driver's license but not charged with any wrongdoing.[6] This after investigators uncover widespread corruption in Mpumalanga regional driving license testing centers, where licenses are being issued in exchange for bribes.[7] Mbete said that she had been "too busy" to stand in queues.[8]
In 2007, Mbete suspended DA member Mike Waters after he attempted to ask what was being done about the Manto Tshabalala-Msimang scandal.[9] Waters had asked about a reported conviction for theft of the Minister of Health, while the latter had been a nurse in Botswana.
Mbete was one of more than 200 South African parliamentarians found to have misused subsidised travel privileges in the Travelgate scandal. She is reported to have paid back all moneys due in the liquidation of the travel agency formerly providing services to parliament.
In 2006, Mbete chartered a jet at a cost of R471 900 (around US$60 000) to fly to Liberia for the inauguration of Ellen Johnson Sirleaf as president. The only other passenger on the plane was a member of her staff. Then president Thabo Mbeki and foreign minister Nkosazana Dlamini-Zuma also travelled to the inauguration – Mbeki in his private plane and Dlamini-Zuma by commercial flight.[10]
She has been a staunch supporter of Tony Yengeni, a former ANC Chief Whip in parliament, who was convicted of defrauding parliament in 2004, even accompanying Yengeni to Pollsmoor Prison when he reported to serve his sentence.[11]
She is currently[when?] being investigated for bribery, investigators from the securities exchange in the United States believe that the R25 million stake she received from the granting of a licence to Goldfields mining company constituted a bribe.
Deputy President[edit]
On 20 September 2008, the African National Congress formally asked President Thabo Mbeki to resign as President of South Africa. Mbete accepted Mbeki's resignation on 21 September.
Before 22 September, Mbete was speculated to succeed Mbeki as President, which would have made her the first female head of state in South Africa's history; however, the ANC announced that Kgalema Motlanthe, the Deputy President of the ANC, would assume that position. On 23 September, Mbete was announced by the SABC to be the most likely candidate for Deputy President of South Africa following Phumzile Mlambo-Ngcuka's resignation from the position,[12] even though other reports had stated that Lindiwe Sisulu would assume that position.
On 25 September 2008, she was appointed by Motlanthe as Deputy President.[13] On 10 May 2009 she was replaced as Deputy President by incoming President Jacob Zuma, who elected to appoint Motlanthe as his deputy.[1]
Speaker of the National Assembly[edit]
On 20 May 2014, Mbete was nominated for the position of Speaker of the National Assembly for a second time. She was elected unanimously on 21 May, beating her rival DA candidate and former Eastern Cape Premier Nosimo Balindlela. On 10 September 2014, five opposition parties, including the Democratic Alliance and Economic Freedom Fighters, stated that they planned to submit a motion of no confidence in Mbete, and claimed that she could not simultaneously serve as chairwoman of the ANC and as Speaker of the National Assembly. A debate held in Parliament on 16 September resulted in the motion being rejected by 234 votes to none. This was a result of opposition parties collectively walking out of the house after the ANC tried to change the vote into one of confidence in Mbete instead.[14][15]

VINCE CABLE'S DECISION to lower the audit exemption threshold will damage the ability of advisors to sell their services, according to Accountancy Age readers.
More than half (53%) of the 86 readers polled voted against the move, which will allow more companies to opt out of statutory audits. Nearly a quarter (24%) felt more businesses should be taken out of statutory audit to free them of red tape, while 13% felt the threshold had been set correctly. Just 10% said slightly more businesses should be included.
Further reading
Under Cable's (pictured) plans, announced earlier this month, changes to reporting and auditing requirements will allow more small businesses and subsidiaries to decide whether or not to have an audit. The proposals will also make it easier for companies to move from IFRS to UK GAAP.
Current UK rules mean SMEs must both have a maximum balance sheet total of £3.26m and less than £6.5m turnover to qualify for an exemption.
The new regulations mean SMEs will be able to obtain an exemption if they meet two out of three criteria relating to balance sheet total, turnover and employing no more than 50 staff.

Mummy: The Curse is the eighth gameline released for the new World of Darkness, the fourth to be released after White Wolf merged with CCP, and the first to be released by Onyx Path. In making it, they took the hopefulness of Mummy The Resurrection, their previous mummy game, and twisted it upside down.In the beginning there was the city of Irem, heart of a powerful Nameless Empire, based where the Egypt of the Pharaohs would one day arise - an empire far more mystically advanced than any of the time. You and a select group of people were subject to the greatest feat of magic that has ever been attempted by mortal hands, the Rite of Return. Now, as an Arisen, you walk the line between life and death, which is both a blessing and a curse. On one hand, you have life everlasting. It takes nothing short of a nuclear bomb to destroy you. On the other, you're able to rise only for short periods, your power steadily ebbing away each time. Your friends and family are long since dead and gone, even fading from your memory as the centuries pass.Your 'true' body remains as it was when you underwent the Rite, a preserved corpse, but it's an easy thing for you to adopt a more human guise, shaped by your memory of yourself - for better and worse.The initial plan for Mummy was to do the corebook and three supplements - Guildhalls of the Deathless, Book of the Deceived and Sothis Ascends. A Kick Starter for a deluxe version of the core added citybooks Cursed Necropolis: DC and Cursed Necropolis: Rio, propbook Dreams of Avarice, a Ready-Made PCs PDF, a fiction anthology and a novel.Terminology: As part of the Rite of Return, each mummy made a decree, determining which part of their fivefold soul they were most deeply attuned to - ab (heart), ba (spirit), ka (essence), ren (name), or sheut (shadow). The judges, 42 in total, are the entities mummies make their decree before during the Rite of Return, and help shape their nature as Arisen. The guilds are the Arisen's social groups, originating in Irem, devoted to the learning of magic. Cults are mortal organizations which support and assist mummies on their journey through eternity. Utterances are the dark miracles of the Arisen, glorious and terrible magics. Affinities are mummies' innate powers, apparently built into the Rite of Return, which manifest as and when needed - even if the mummy in question wasn't aware of them beforehand.

I am sharing pictures of my first sighting of a Bald Eagle in the wild. The even more exciting aspect of this is that it occurred in my back yard!! While playing in the pool with my children, I witnessed the very mature eagle glide across the lake and land on the lamp post on our dock which overlooks Lake Saratoga in Cape Coral, FL. It was truly a magnificent sight, and I was lucky enough to have already had my camera out, as he only stopped to perch for less than a minute.

Interview: Richard Hammond
Page 3 of 3
What driving tips can you offer everyday drivers?Richard Hammond: Observation. That's rather boring, isn't it? But, I ride a motorbike as well, so please look out your bloody mirrors because I might be behind you! And as a bike rider, it does help. It's the primary thing. My checks, before I turn left when I'm on my motorbike, I look over my left shoulder, over my right shoulder, I look up, I look down, I look everywhere, and we should all do that as car drivers. It's boring, I know… I haven't got a big gag there; it's just what I think!
Well, try to avoid putting your car in that space currently occupied by another car until it's been vacated by said car, lest you'll have a crash.
What's your biggest career secret and what advice can you give to AM's readers who want to pursuer a career similar to yours?RH: Stick with it. I mean, that's all I've done. I've been doing this for 20 years -- this year in fact. I stuck with it, and it took 15 years before I started doing bigger stuff. So, that's really my only tip, I guess: Find something you're really good at and are satisfied by, and that you're really using your mind at and stick with it.
Do you ever have a fear of speaking in public, being on television and all?RH: You need it. You have to have nerves because you feed off them. They're what keep you on your toes, and the trick is to learn to accept -- not to get rid of the nerves, not to stop them, you never will because the moment you do, you'll be boring and flat. So the trick is to learn to have those nerves, to appreciate them for what they are, to recognize them and put them to one side whilst you're thinking about what you want to do, then go out and do it and let the nerves sweep up. You'll get the buzz from it, it's what will send the adrenaline bolting round your body and make you sharp and quick and lively, and engaging. You need that.
Quick FactLEGO helped Richard Hammond a great deal while he recovered in a hospital in Leeds.
What's the one quality you think all men should possess?RH: Um. Ooh. That's quite a big ask isn't it? Um, well 'round where I live all men should be able to ride a horse, discipline a dog, fix a car (laughs), run 20 miles, and be useful! Then, equally, men should be capable of appreciating other things as well. I don't know … one of the things that upsets me is when we describe something as "manly." It's become almost a negative point. Whereas men have done some rather wonderful things over the generations -- we're kind of handy to have around, really. Yes, the odd war has happened, we know that, and we can be stubborn and difficult and proud and awful, but we can also be extremely bloody handy. So, just make yourself useful.
Who do you consider to be the ultimate man's man?RH: Blimey! That I wouldn't know… anybody who's excelled I guess, because people who excel, who do very well at things -- and that's at whatever it is, whether it's sports or selling windows, it doesn't matter, because competitiveness is an essential male trait. But even at the same time it needs to be a more rounded person. I don't know, take your pick. I'm sure we all know people. There are friends I would consider fine examples of the type.
Is your new book, As You Do, on stands September 18, 2008, something you've always wanted to write, or was it created due to the response you received from On The Edge?RH: No, writing On The Edge was such… I found it such a buzz, I found it immensely enjoyable and I've always wanted to write since I was a little boy. So I threw myself into this and thought I'll give it a go and writing up these experiences has been tremendous because you can sometimes say so much more in writing than you can on film. And so I've enjoyed that process hugely. So, writing the Evil Knievel documentary about what happened, about the process of filming it and making the program like that, you can fire in so much more about the people that you meet, the places that you go, the interaction between the crew, the process technically about making the television program. You can tell so much more about that in a book than you can actually in a program. I enjoyed writing it as much as I've ever enjoyed any bit of work.
It's about the things, about what I do, obviously, about behind being on the telly and it's about the business of making telly, but from the inside. More and more people are captivated by television and enjoying it and it really is the process of making those films and what it's like doing it -- going to the Pole or going across Botswana, or any of those things, which is why I enjoyed doing it because this is a chance to sit down and go, right this is what it's like.

Oregon's small manufacturers grow under the radar

Steel bolts produced at the Portland Bolt & Manufacturing Co. shore up numerous landmarks in the Rose City — the Convention Center, the U.S. Bank Tower and the canopy at the Timbers' soccer stadium included. In fact, bolts produced at the company's Northwest Portland factory do serious work all over the world, anchoring everything from roller coasters at Disneyland to a power plant in Egypt and a copper mine in Peru.
Although Portland Bolt has been in business for 101 years — and turned out a whopping 5.75 million pounds of bolts for projects in 50 states and 31 countries last year — it's not a company most people have heard of.
"We're an under-the-radar type of business," says president and CEO Jonathan Todd, who has been in charge since 2005. "Most of the time people don't think about our product, because it's underground or in the concrete or covered up by wood."
In a state known mostly for its large high-tech and apparel manufacturers, the smaller, grittier manufacturers often get overlooked. After all, it's far sexier to talk about the company developing mobile technologies or sponsoring Olympic athletes than the one manufacturing PVC pipe for under your sink.
Yet the manufacturers working in metal, wood, plastic and other basic materials drive a significant portion of the Oregon economy. In addition to providing thousands of people with stable employment, they produce essential components for larger industries. Behind the scenes, they make the scuff boards, the brake pins, the conveyer belts, the power-line transmission anchors — and the countless other nonglamorous pieces — that keep the construction, transportation, food-processing and power-production fields running smoothly.
"Small manufacturers are a fundamental part of the economic makeup of the state," says Jay Clemens, president and CEO of Associated Oregon Industries, a private nonprofit that advocates for Oregon businesses. "They're all part of a highly integrated industrial base, and collectively, they have a huge impact on Oregon."
Though manufacturing has declined significantly across the country over the past few decades, the Portland metro area has managed to maintain a surprisingly strong manufacturing base. As of 2012, manufacturing workers comprised 11% of the metro area's workforce, compared with 8.5% in other major metro areas, according to a study compiled by ECONorthwest for the Value of Jobs Coalition. Of the 100 largest metro areas in the country, in fact, Portland's manufacturing sector ranks 17th in size.
In addition, according to the Oregon Employment Department, a vast majority of the state's manufacturing firms — 87% — are small, employing fewer than 50 people.
Chris Scherer, president of the Oregon Manufacturing Extension Partnership (OMEP), a nonprofit that works with businesses to improve their ability to compete in the global economy, says small manufacturers in core industries make up the bulk of his clientele.
"The overall intelligence level of the companies that survived the recession is way higher than it was," he says. "Folks are looking over the horizon and are far more interested in things that will result in growth: new business ideas, expanding products and taking advantage of the new technologies available."
We need to recognize the small firms, Clemens says, because their well-being affects the state's ability to sell outside its borders and generate wealth. "The more their role in the economy is recognized," he says, "the smarter we all get in public life about how we legislate and how we make an environment that allows Oregon's small manufacturing base to be competitive in the larger economy."
With this in mind, we ventured into oft-overlooked industrial districts across the state to talk with the people producing the nuts and bolts we rely on but rarely see. In addition to understanding the role these manufacturers play in the Oregon economy, we wanted to know what global and local forces these small business are up against and how they're adapting in response.

Stanford loses SS Howell for at least one game
Written by Gil Alcaraz IV on October 20, 2011
The Stanford defense took a big shot today when a school spokesman announced that starting strong safety Delano Howell would not be playing during the Cardinal's Saturday game against the Washington Huskies.
Through the first six games of the 2011 season, Howell has been a big playmaker in the defensive backfield for Stanford. Arguably the strongest link in the Cardinal secondary, the senior safety has racked up 25 tackles and four defended passes this season.
Howell, who's dealing with a hand injury, will be replaced by sophomore Devon Carrington. So far this season, Carrington has tallied 19 total tackles and one defended pass while seeing action in a backup role. He has played in all six games this season and will get his first start against Washington.
As of right now, Howell is week-to-week and could miss more than just the Washington game (read more…)

re: mmm
don't forget.......
....... Shaft
Mine's the one with the pocket full of used kleenex
May i be the first to say....
...how very wude.
whats the.....
The URL for the first .xxx domain, casting.xxx?
Why oh why could you not provide us with a link to this "casting.xxx" site?
Finally, porn on the internet!
"MetaCert makes a free browser plug-in that can block sites and insert mouseover warnings into search engine results, based on its hosted database of known porn sites.
Under its deal with ICM, every .xxx site will be automatically labelled as adults-only in this database."
Surely just add *.xxx to the database? Doesn't need a commercial agreement. Isn't that rather the point of .xxx in the first place?
MetaCert add-on
Michael, the MetaCert /ICM deal goes a little deeper than we can report. What I can add however, is that we will update the add-on to include more information about the other assertions that are made by .xxx sites - such as the identity being verified and the fact that every site is scanned for malware.
You are right in saying we could use a wildcard to label every .xxx domain, but we're doing a little more than just labeling the .xxx sites.
It's important to note that our Family Safety product is less than 5% of our roadmap. This just happens to be the first product launch.
I see there's no link to the add-on so here it is:
A fiver!
For the first person to test this domain against their company firewall
U O me
Already did, 'accidentally'. I also 'accidentally' clicked on the "OK Enter" button... Yupp, there is smut in them there hills....
Remind me to check later from home, I need to verify that the smut therein actually work properly.
What site!
Couldn't even get to the Reg article. Our firewall said NO! in big shouty letters and said why the article was blocked, PORN! and said it would tell tales on me to the computer men.
Good job I am the computer men.
Pay for porn site on the new .xxx domain. well...i remember i used to say email me here at *@*.xxx but i guess i'll have to just say *@yah*.com from now on eh? I wonder if *ware writers will try and compromise these websites to host their payloads. I still dont think this will make blocking porn any easier. So, I guess i'll be the first to say it.. When do we get theregister.xxx ???
Paris because <no comment needed>
The first xxx site - "casting.xxx" - goes online, and already I feel soiled.
No, I don't have any problem with all the bonking going on.
It's the premise of "casting.xxx" that bothers me: a fake agent (and you can tell because it has "FAKE AGENT" just in case you miss it) has his own casting couch to lure young women to shag on. He promises them an entry into the porn world, but all the viewers know the real score - he's a lying bastard trying to get his end in.
In reality, I suspect all the actresses are pros in the business, in the know, and are fully compensated. Never the less, this site is directed at all the wankers in the audience who get an extra bit of frisson off on dishonesty and deceit. Yuck.
Re: soiled.
Erm, are you actually berating the morality and unrealistic aspect of the porn industry?
A bit more creativity, please!
Oh, come on now Kevin, you weren't really trying very hard with that title were you?
Why not, "First erection on .xxx", or something along those lines?
WTF because, well, that's what the .xxx's are for, isn't it?
casting.xxx's privacy policy
All the way at the bottom, there's this wonderful oversight...
Effective: January __ 2011
Makes you wonder what other pieces are missing.
"Finally, somewhere safe to w*nk"
"Have you ever been caught masturbating in a wardobe"
"Great place to hide, innit!"
(With respect to the late David Carradine, natch)
30 euros a month! Are they serious?
Silly premise too. I guess they have to pay for all those fine actresses.
RE: 30 euros a month! Are they serious?
Who the hell pays for Porn these days anyway?
Yeah, Right
"Larry Flynt's Hustler publishing empire has also reportedly written to ICM demanding that it take action to specifically protect Hustler's trademarks in the .xxx space, accusing the company of a "shakedown"."
I'm sure Hustler can't afford $75 a year per domain to register it's .xxx domains
Why bother paying?
Just wait and see if someone tries to use your brand name, then tell them to give it up or you'll sue them.
Don't see why anyone should pay every Tom, Dick or Harry registry that sets up to pre-emptively protect their copyright. It's just another scam, even if it is one that targets large corporations.

I had the pleasure of working with Kelly and her firm on a number of occasions when I needed expert commentary regarding divorce and divorce law for a series of television specials I was producing between 2010 and 2013. Kelly is not only a damn good lawyer, she is an intelligent, compassionate, articulate woman and a consummate professional who is able to unravel complex legal situations with astonishing ease. I have referred a number of friends and colleagues to Kelly over the years, and she has always done a stellar job of representing them and fighting for their rights. If I am ever in need of legal services the ONLY person I would consider is Kelly Chang Rickert.
Kelly was great. She is professional, listened to what I was looking for on both approach and outcome of my divorce. I highly reccomend Kelly in any legal matters arround family law.
I had to process a very simple, pure-paperwork divorce and had spoken to many lawyers who gave me wildly different explanations and costs! I found Kelly Chang RIckert on this site, by chance, and although I was unsure about the notion of not working "in person", after my initial phone contact with her I was immediately reassured: and I don't for a second regret having hired her. She is very responsive, thorough, knowledgeable, professional, to the point and her costs are by far the most honest I had met so far. She has never made me feel that any question was "pointless", and was always very quick to respond. I was able to get my divorce completed at lighting speed, just through phone and email and am very very satisfied with her services.
When I found Kelly, I was in a situation with prior council that I felt I couldnt relate to. My whole point in getting representation was to get help in standing up for what felt right for my children, and Kelly did just that, she is fair, caring and compassionate and will be upfront about your legal situation and has a fearless approach to it. I cant say enough good things about her. Priceless! Highly reccomended.
Divorce is difficult and very trying at times. It was not easy and sometimes the protection of the law does not seem fair. Kelly was the consummate professional throughout the case. Always respectful and compassionate, she made me feel like someone understood and would defend me. I strongly advocate securing her counsel in divorce matters. Her conduct inspires confidence and admiration and makes her perfect in representing you in court. I cannot say enough good things about Kelly.
Kelly is resourceful and either aggressive or diplomatic as the situation requires. She knows the law or knows how to find it.
I hope you don't need her services, but if you do, see Kelly.
I hired Kelly Chang after checking with various attorney-referral services and scrutinizing the backgrounds of numerous practitioners, especially those purporting to be "unlawful detainer specialists." After she promptly responded to me and I had a chance to interview her, I decided to hire her in connection with what I thought would be a routine unlawful detainer action. Little did we know that it would be anything but a routine and probably uncontested eviction case.
Without going into all the gory details, suffice it to say that she was able to achieve a very satisfactory settlement in this highly-contested case. Throughout our relationship, I found her to be (A) an excellent communicator, promptly getting back to me in response to my questions and explaining the law as it applied to my case in clear, easily-understood terms, (B) very competent, coming up with good pleadings and solid legal support for our positions, (C) compassionate and understanding, yet professional, and (D) effective in representing client interests.
In short, she gave great value and relieved the end-client (an elderly landlady for whom I worked) from a great of stress and anxiety. She joins me in expressing thanks and appreciation for a job well done in this specific case, and for being a living example of what a good lawyer should be. We wish there more attorneys like Kelly Chang.
I have no hesitation in recommending her to others in need of her professional skills.
