Farlow breaks record in first meet
Cady Farlow created a stir several times as a middle school swimmer, repeatedly topping performances posted on the South Adams swimming record board. However, that record board showcases only high school performances, so Farlow would have to wait to replace them.
Not any longer.
In her first high school meet, the freshman phenom blasted South Adams' 100-yard breaststroke record (held by Ashley Koons) by more than three seconds, setting a new mark of 1:10.82 with a first place finish in the Norwell Invitational Saturday morning.
Farlow's record-breaking swim helped South Adams score 140 points and finish fifth as a team despite having only seven girls on the...

Cornelius Cornelisz van Haarlem
Dutch, 1562–1638
Feast of the Gods, c. 1600
ink, wash, oil on paper
20.5 x 20.7 cm
Collection of the Winnipeg Art Gallery; Acquired with the National Trust Company Fund No. 1
This drawing is attributed to Cornelis Cornelisz van Haarlem (called Cornelis van Haarlem) who studied in Haarlem under Pieter Pietersz, and then later in Antwerp under Gillis Congnet. Van Haarlem's drawing oeuvre is very small, with only a handful of sheets solidly confirmed to be by his hand. However, several engravings were made after his drawings, providing a record of his graphic output. He focused primarily on religious and mythological subjects, and secured several major commissions in royal residences and churches, including the interior decoration of the Prinsenhof in Haarlem, a residence for the Princes of Orange. Evident in the WAG drawing, which depicts the feast of the gods, is the merging of Mannerist and classical tendencies in van Haarlem's figural work. While the nudes still exhibit slightly elongated limbs and torsos, their musculature and poses are more aligned with a classical aesthetic.

It is SO frustrating to think you caught the politicians in a big scam, and then find out it was just more internet entertainment.
Let me share a short tale.
First, we all want to believe the stuff we see on the internet, especially if it agrees with our own view anyway. It seems so real, and is so well-documented, how can it be fake?
Well, Yours Truly has finally seen the light, thanks to coaching by one Bryan Johnson.
It seems I got an email forwarded by a friend. It was about a Cabela's receipt out of Texas, with a new tax on it: a Medical (Device) Excise Tax. The claim, well documented with links to the IRS regulations, was that those sneaky Democrats who forced Obamacare on us had put the Medical Device Excise Tax on things like fishing rods, bows and arrows, tires and gas guzzlers.
Cabela's in Texas had listed the new Obamacare tax on customer's receipts. (See picture of actual receipt.)
I asked a dozen friends to help me check it out. Bryan spelled it out in terms even I could understand. His message is for all of us:
"Fake. It came from the internet, and is fake until proven true. I'll bet anyone $100 this is fake, without knowing more about it.
"You have to remember that the internet is the biggest source of lies, fakes and trickery that we have ever invented.
"Merely because it's on the internet does not mean it's true. And, the smart path is to assume that you are being tricked, someone is trying to manipulate you, or someone is reaching for your wallet."
On a different note, there is a sport-fishing gear tax which was started in 1941. 1941! Holy mackerel!
This excise tax on the sport-fishing industry funds the Sport-Fish Restoration Program, not the government directly.
Back to the Cabela's receipt: The receipts themselves were real, which is a bit of surprise in that they weren't just Photoshopped. It turns out the receipt generated was a mistake due to new point-of-sale software on Cabela's computer.
The Medical Device Excise tax, which went into effect Jan. 1, is a new tax, but it has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with Cabela's business. The tax imposes a 2.3% levy on the sale of certain medical devices, such as MRIs and X-ray machines. According to the IRS, there are many retail exemptions to the tax such as eyeglasses, contact lenses and hearing aids, to name a few.
Is there anything that Cabela's sells that would be considered medical equipment by a sane person?
The only thing real in the entire story is the receipt. The lesson is: Do your research.

text: 4 Excellent 1st person shooter can't wait for Red Steel 2!dragonlord | 27/01/2009 | See all dragonlord's reviews (442)Top 10 Reviewer Top 10 DVD Reviewer Number 1 Games Reviewer Top 10 Music Reviewer Top 100 Books Reviewer Top 100 Clothing Reviewer Red Steel has a great violent story where you and your fiancee are mixed up in a yakuza gang war. You get to use two swords in sword fights and you move the Wii controls in the direction that you want to strike your swords. Most of the time this works very well but sometimes it does'nt seem to do what you want it to do. The controls mainly don't work so good if you try to move to fast or aren't precise enough with your movements. There are a good selection of guns which are a real joy to use with the excellent Wii controls and like other 1st person shooters on the Wii the controls make the game feel more real. One of the things that I thought was really cool with Red Steel is the way the game characters call out your name which is pretty clever stuff. This is the first game I have come across which does this as normally you would have your name in just the type, but to have it in the speech of the different charcters really impressed me. The four player mode is brilliant it's just a shame you can't go online like you can with Quantum Of Solace. I expect when Red Steel 2 comes out this year it will be online and they are meant to be improving the controls for the sword fighting battles.

A postal worker is now being called a hero for pulling at least one adult from the burning home.
Barb Langdon says she was just doing her job, going house-to-house as a mail carrier, when she noticed smoke and flames pouring from the home on Golden Road. But undoubtedly, her actions were heroic.
A postal service truck is not the vehicle we recognize for saving lives. Mail carriers are not normally honored for bravery.
"We're kind of trained to be alert of the houses, and maybe what doesn't look normal, and I saw black smoke coming out of the chimney, which I figured didn't look right. Within seconds, it came out the side of the house."
Today was just Barb Langdon's second day delivering mail on Golden Road. She was working overtime, and had even skipped her morning break.
"I don't even know why, I just didn't today. I just wanted to start working."
She first heard a woman calling for help. Barb immediately called 911. Then she saw arms waving from a window. Then, a small child's cry for help.
"I just ripped the curtains down, put them on the ground, and was able, I don't know how, to get her out of the window. And then she fell on the ground, I took my coat off and wrapped her up."
A hero, but not in her mind. For Barb, only one thing is important.
"Just the kids," she said, wiping away tears.
If you look at a map of Golden Road from above, I-490 is nearby but the home is isolated. It's a dead-end. It's fortunate Barb skipped her morning break and came by when she did. Some might say, it's a miracle.

The Western Sahara territory is one of the few unclaimed regions in the world. Claims to its territory are under dispute-Morocco annexed a large portion when Mauritania withdrew- but at the moment, not many entities are interested in the region. The coastline is rocky and rough, the inland areas are inhospitable and too rugged to travel; the entire area is basically unfriendly to humans.
Because of this, Western Sahara has one of the least concentrated populations in the world. Nomads traveling through the desert make up most of the people in this desert region.
Getting there
If you do travel to Western Sahara, flights land in El Auin. Mostly local flights, to the Canary Islands and Morocco let you into the area. There is one international flight from Spain, Western Sahara's former colonizer.
Where to stay
There are few hotels and almost no infrastructure in Western Sahara. The local customs include hospitality rituals, so travelers will be served tea at least, although not guaranteed a place to spend the night.

BNA - For Australian and visiting cyclists from Road to MTB, to Track to Freestyle
The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...

Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
I know how you feel I get the complusion to rip the things out of there ears so very often.
BCC give us some more bikeways fore safe travel!!!!
Upgrade the NCL now QR!!!!!!
My views do not represent any organisation I may be apart of unless otherwise stated
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
woohoo. another one for "dark side".
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
I only just noticed where you're located! Do you ever ride in or around Palmerston? Cos if so, I might have seen you!
It's probably not you, cos the dude that's nearly run me over twice doesn't even yell anything to me. (Since taking up cycling, I don't use ear phones on shared paths any more).
The bloke doing the Tour de Gungahlin doesn't have a bell either (nor is he even wearing a helmet sometimes). It makes me really, really mad.
A bell weighs nothing. A bell comes with your bike to meet Australian standards, and if it doesnt, the seller is obliged to provide you one for free. And if you forget, what are they, like a couple of bucks?
I realise that you called out for him - but get yourself that AZ dude, because in my view, rather than assuming how loud his music was or how inattentive he was, you should consider your own wrongdoing in riding a bike that doesn't meet Australian standards. There's a reason that a bell, and not a voice, is the requirement for the standard.
This is less about you, its more about this cyclist that doesn't care that he's in a heavily residential area, and that kids and animals use that path. So don't take too much offence.
But I've heard all the justifications - and there's no excuse for not having a bell. To not have a bell and to expect everyone else to use paths on your terms is arrogant and it lacks respect. (And if people want to use the "some road bikes aren't sold with bells", then firstly - see above, get them to give you one. Secondly, ride on the roads, not on shared paths.)
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
I never use a bell when passing pedestrians on shared paths. It just makes them unpredictable. I used to, but too many peds would hear the bell and change their line, which way they moved was totally random. Through experience I don't use the bell as it causes more problems than it solves on a shared path. On the road to warn an about to jaywalk ped it is very useful, on a shared path it makes matters worse.
Riding: Cannondale Quick Speed 2
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
Yeah Twiz, get one of these from Velogear and still be ignored by the skullwired cretins...
I got one to pad an order up to free shipping and hung it on my FG pathfighter. It gives my fingers something to do in the absence of shifters. It works a charm with normal polite humans and most animals if you give them a brrrriing about 20-30m back. With the skullwired, this might penetrate...
I find the sound will stop most CBD redmanners in their tracks.
...whatever the road rules, self-preservation is the absolute priority for a cyclist when mixing it with motorised traffic.
London Boy 29/12/2011
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
What bell is that?
Riding: Cannondale Quick Speed 2
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
No, don't ride Palmerston much.
Now, just so you are clear on your argument, bicycles are required by the Australian Standards to be SOLD with a bell. Once out the door, that doesn't apply. And I build my bikes, so I don't get one in the box.
Riding a bicycle on a road under the Australian Road Rules, a bicycle is required to have a "bell, horn or similar warning device". Never having had the discussion with the police, I haven't tried the "yelling is my warning device" argument. I do NOT expect to get away with it.
The bells provided with bikes these days are proxy shite - the best bell I have ever had was from my 1980's Apollo II... and a few years back when I fitted it to the last complete bike I bought, I got abused by some deaf old bint who told me off because "You didn't ring your bell" when I flipping well had. She had to be deaf, but apparently that's MY problem.
Peds on phones, peds talking to other peds, peds with wires out their ears - they are all off in a different world. You can pick the aware ones, they hold up a hand or call "thanks" when I call "passing". The others jump, either when they hear me and don't expect it... or when they don't hear me and I pass. I'm still going to use my voice as the primary warning, it doesn't scare people as badly... but the in attentive are not going to like my next warning device.

Yep. But can still find a good brass bell to complement the AirZound.
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
I used to have a bell on my bike......

Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
Hi fatdudeonabike,
I reckon its all in the interpretation of the law, My bell certainly gets the attention of the average ped with ear phones....
It came with directions "bong against hard objects" I havent figured out what that means yet.

Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
i have a bell on (some of) my bikes. it's useful for riding shared paths. if i want more cred as a rider, i go and do more intervals or hills. no one's going to be impressed that you don't have a bell.
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
I ride that path every day, but I come through around 6:30am and most people haven't even woken up yet.

Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
You know what I see from that video.
The camera rider and the other rider in yellow, riding too slow for the guy on the mountain bike. So he decides to pass, and the other 2 decide to be heroes up the pace to not let him pass easily.
It is obvious from the video that they both started to increase the pace once the mountain bike rider got beside them. Then wouldn't let him move in front. Their ego got in the way. All morons in that video.

Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
Its all good, I'm only having a joke
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
Shrug. I rock a bell on my commuting bike, but I have zero faith in its effectiveness as a warning device. It's really there as a figleaf lest the police decide to take on the great harm being caused by bell-less cyclists . It happens every so often around my neck of the woods for some reason. My chances of being heard are no better than fifty-fifty and a frequent reaction is for the pingee to move in some random direction, which doesn't really help. In particular, old folk are shocking for not hearing bells and will like as not berate me for being a young whippersnapper or something as doing anything helpful like not take up the entire path while chatting about I don't quite know what. I ping seldom and then only when I'm pretty cocky I won't clean them up no matter what fool thing they do. Calling out is roughly as effective, maybe a little better. That's not saying much.
So I don't know about no excuse. I could strap a chocolate tea-kettle to the handlebars and get the same result, I reckon, only I'd have some chocolate to snack on. Sure, it's the law and the law is the law is the law, but I doubt it's a law that would really be missed.
Dealing with pedestrians is fine. Dealing with rude people is tiresome, so too stupid people, but that's life. Bells, IME, do not make it easier to deal with any of these groups.
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
Bells are good, voice is good. I tend to use a combination of both as neither seem to be totally effective, but the most effective thing that I have found alerts peds to your presence is noisy brakes - although you can get some dirty looks when they think you are out of control.
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
I'm quite a slow beginner rider - I've done the Lake Burley Griffin loop in Canberra for the first time today.
I hope the people that say calling out is just as effective as bells are louder than the people calling out today - I had (I think) 4 people calling out to me... but if you're talking to the person you're riding with, or if you actually had to take some evasive action, none of the 4 voices I've heard calling today were of any use whatsoever.
On the flipside, I've belled quite a few joggers today - I realise this particular shared path is different, because cyclists, joggers and pedestrians all know to look out for each other, but the responses to my bell-ringing were always very polite. I couple of waves, a couple of thank yous...
I just dont get it. There's no street cred in not having a bell - there's even less street cred in knocking someone over because you thought your voice was effective when the limited experience I've had today suggests that it's nowhere near as effective. Three of the four people I'm talking about were lycra wearers, which is only significant because lycra-wearing tends to indicate to me a slightly more serious rider in most cases - these people should know better.
So on a busy shared path that I've ridden today, with many people apparently riding Giro d'LBG, it just makes no sense whatsoever to ride that path without a bell and to think your voice is anywhere near as effective.
On topic - a GoPro is officially on my shopping list. I just can't handle crazy cyclists doing 60km/hr trying to duck through gaps that aren't there between me on one side of the path and pedestrians coming the other way on the other side of the path. All I would've needed to do today was throw an elbow up and I could've hit 2 of them. Such was their lack of respect for other users of the path, I almost wish I had. They were clearly expecting everyone else to cater for whatever dick-measuring contest they were involved in - it was inconsiderate, and it was rude.
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
bells are no joking matter son
joggers are usually good. they're part of the "fitness club". there are some pedestrians who just see you as the enemy though, being on a bike. you learn to ignore the crazy ones. or post them on YT
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
But you did-by your own admission- hear them. QED.
You have-again, by your own admission-limited experience. Why are you so unwilling to learn from those who have so much more? Jeez, I've been into this cycle commuting lurk since 1996 and I've still got shedloads to learn. From any and everybody who has knowledge I lack.

Where do you get one of those little old skool cycling horns that make the "di-do-di" noise (you know like the one on the iphone text tone aptly enough called "horn"). I would be proud to sport such a horn.
Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
This might come close...

Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
And as I say, if I had've been talking to my friend, or if I'd actually needed to move over or anything, their voice would've been useless. If I'd been talking, I wouldnt have heard them, if I'd needed to do anything, I didn't have time.
And on your second point, I'm yet to hear a single good reason as to why having a bell on your bike is such a burden - so what am I supposed to be learning here? That I should remove my bell for the street cred when, in actuality, the only people who think this adds to street cred are douche bags? (And I thought I was doing this for fun, for exercise, and to beat the traffic - I didn't realise that image was supposed to be a consideration)
I don't need to learn that a voice is as effective as a bell, because quite simply - it's not. The road bike riders that are generally the ones that don't have a bell are travelling too fast for their voice to be of any use whatsoever.
If I'm travelling at 30km/hr and I bell someone, they can hear me from 50 metres. If they panic, I still have time to look after both of us. If I shout at them, they can hear me from maybe 10 metres, and if they panic, we're both screwed.
I may have only been riding for months rather than years, but I've ridden a lot, and I would've used my bell hundreds of times since I started - and this notion that people supposedly take offence to a bell is rubbish. People are happy that you were considerate of their safety.
There's a billion people here with cameras on their bikes - I'd love it if someone could show me a single example of a ped cracking it because they were belled.
Or if anyone can provide me a decent reason not to have one - which no one has.

Re: The Dumb Cyclists and Pedestrians thread...
I had a bell on a mountain bike some years ago now. It was usually ridden along shared paths. In most cases ringing the bell had little impact on pedestrians. They either couldn't hear it (wired for sound) or didn't know what it meant. That's why I now use my voice and can announce "bike back" or "passing on your right", etc. A bell can't provide this communication. Anyone who things a bell is better than your voice for alerting pedestrians has little experience as a cyclist.

JOH3 is a unique residential building in downtown Berlin developed by Euroboden and designed by J. Mayer H.. Located on Johannisstraße in Mitte, Berlin's downtown district, the seven story building neighbors both the Museum Island and Friedrichstrasse. The ground floor provides commercial space and the interior courtyard is a private respite for residents of the multi-unit building. The apartments all face south-west, opening to the calm, carefully designed courtyard garden as well as daylight. The sculptural louvered facade works to protect the interior from overheating and provide privacy.
Each apartment enjoys a private patio to enjoy the outdoors and natural ventilation eliminates the need for air conditioning. The use of heat exchangers help to reduce energy use. Some of the larger apartments enjoy their own gardens and a green roof on top provides additional insulation. Rainwater is harvested from the roof and stored in cisterns under the basement. This water is used for toilet flushing and washing machines to reduce potable water use.

Review: 2011 Toyota Avalon
by Chris Shunk (RSS feed) on Aug 30th, 2010 at 11:57AM
Sexagenarians Rejoice! Your Ride Has Arrived Have you seen the TV commercials for the 2011 Toyota Avalon? One particular 30-second spot sticks out. It's shot through a 1960's filter and features an old-fashioned voiceover, cheesy elevator music and an airline pilot driving the big Toyota sedan on a cloud with a pretty flight attendant in the passenger seat. It's like something the Mad Men crew would create, minus the misogyny. That Toyota's marketing team produced such a commercial proves they know exactly who buys the Avalon: people who were alive and watching television 50 years ago.... Read More

What can faculty do to improve student learning? And how would one know if students were learning and retaining more? Anecdotal evidence suggested that changes in pedagogy in the introductory biology 1001 course was improving student learning. But would this hold up to scientific testing? Drs. Mynlieff, Manogaran, St. Maurice, and Eddinger decided to try to find out. They designed and tested the possible benefits of exam corrections, active learning, and peer reviewed writing assignments with a metacognitive component using control and experimental variables across and between the three sections of Biology 1001. Assessments following these activities, and at the end of the semester, showed that students scored higher when they participated in these activities relative to students that did not. The results are published in CBE – Life Sciences education (vol. 13, 311-321, Summer 2014). There is a long history of teaching excellence in the Biology department, with numerous teaching award winners, and it is hoped that studies like this will continue to guide faculty to enhance student learning.
