text: Spanish media claim video shows Vettel illegal pass under yellows 28 November, 2012 Sebastian Vettel and Christian Horner confer in parc ferme immediately after the Brazilian GP Nov.28 (GMM) A video (below) has emerged that clearly depicts newly crowned F1 world champion Sebastian Vettel overtaking under yellow flag conditions during Sunday's Brazilian grand prix, where he finished sixth and wrapped up the 2013 title. It is a separate incident to the 2012 world champion's pass on Kamui Kobayashi at Interlagos, which turned out to have actually taken place under yellow and orange caution flags. The new video, showing Vettel passing a Toro Rosso with yellow lights flashing beside the track and also in the cockpit of his Red Bull. Only after the yellow lights begin flashing and Vettel completed the move does the 25-year-old driver pass the green lights. "It shows that Vettel should have been penalised," said the Spanish newspaper El Mundo. A penalty might have made the difference between title victory and defeat for Vettel and Ferrari's Fernando Alonso. El Mundo added: "Now the Scuderia (Ferrari) has until November 30 to appeal." Alonso late on Tuesday alluded to the controversy by saying in Spanish on Twitter that there are "no miracles", only "rules". Italy's Corriere dello Sport, however – citing Ferrari spokesman Luca Colajanni – said the Italian team is not planning to lodge a protest.

Flags overrule lightboards. GET OVER IT! your Alonso lost…shame on you.. John The car he overtook also significantly slowed down. Entering the corner he was in a group, but he dropped back from them. Under those conditions he's also allowed to overtake too. If that wasn't the case, Ferrari would have Massa putting on the brakes every time he went through a yellow to slow everybody else down for Alonso! A rather sad display of poor sportsmanship by Alonso, Ferrari, and their fans. Snoopy48 Red Bull cheating ? Who ever heard of such a thing! Chris Sorry Admin but there is a Pic that shows Green Flag just before the Pass was made gophoto.it/view.php?i=http://i.minus.com/ifCeF4LzTDLqY.gif#.ULXUCuRtjgx So that Pass was Legal. Andreibung Watch it over and over…. it was green lights…. Stop exposing failed news like this…. off-course Spanish News people wants to blow up these kind of videos… Just remember one thing… you should balance your story… or losing your readers… URUZ Hi Andreibung! May be you don´t know but there is a sickness called "daltonism" where you cannot distinguish between some colours, I´m serious man, best visit your doc A.S.A.P. For the ones who can only see in black and white; Just don´t mind about the colour of the flags, you can see cleary the cockpit display lights are on, indicating it is forbidden to overtake until he reaches the green flag at the end, but for then the Toro rosso has already been passed some seconds before. shinzo Wow… so many ignorant people responding to this article. The green flag appears in the distance only after Vettel makes his pass. Therefore Vettel should not have passed until after the green light not before it. If you want to quote rules then I'd suggest you make sure you know what you're talking about first rather than make them up to suit your biased arguments. adam22 i think these guys are color blind, sb didn't overtake in yellow! Danilo Schöneberg There is a marshal waving a green flag on the left hand side, just after the pit exit. The move was legit. Nice try, next theory, please… Ash pause at 0:19 its green Whats goin on? pause at 0:15…….to the right….its clearly yellow…..then see Vettel's steering wheel also it shows yellow….but then once its green flag…..the steering doesnt show any yellow!!! : Danilo Schöneberg I've never seen such a poor sportsmanship. We're now going into the third day of butthurt Spaniards and Italians trying to win a title on the round table they couldn't win on the track by boring the raw stuffing out of us with falsified videos. Sore losers doesn't even start to describe it. Here's a photo taken from the opposite direction. The pass was absolutely legit. Danilo Schöneberg obviously doesnt allow links in comments. Here's the photo again i49. tinypic. com/212bl1c.jpg PistoneRovente @john It would appear, from your comment, that you are one who displays poor sportsmanship and also poor understanding of your own written language. It says on the article itself that "Ferrari is not planning to lodge a protest" and on the Ferrari's website. If you weren't so obtuse you would take this article for that it is, another way for journalists to make themselves read by blowing up stories like this one. Shame on you. By a Ferrari fan…never an Alonso fan. And don't you try teach us about sportsmanship, RedbBull boy. You team is the one that builds cars going against the spirit of the rules and, in substance, the sport itself. Danilo Schöneberg @Italian Dude Of course they're not protesting, because there is actually nothing to protest against as that 'alleged yellow flag pass' happened under green. The poor sportsmanship is even dredging up such videos, knowing that the allegation is false. And don't you come with 'spirit of the rules'. Were the ferrari bargeboards in 1999 in the 'spirit of the rules'? Were blatant early season team-orders in the spirit of the rules or the starting grid manipulation at Austin? Pathetic! Alon-SobSobSob It never ends does it, the almost constant whining from some of the Spanish media, no doubt spurred on and encouraged by the likes of Alonsonearyetsofar and his manager Abadexample. Alonso has been the whiniest most bitchiest driver ever to grace the seat of an F1 car, he is to sportsmanship what Lance Armstrong is to integrity. The most sore of sore losers, someone give him a bucket so that he has somewhere to spit the seeds from his underripe grapes. jl 0:22 – 0:23 look on the left, it's green from closer view. may be because of some optical refraction on camera it seem yellow from far view. Disgusted with 2012 The waved green flag (hidden in the video behind the big round graphic at the upper left side of the frame) just prior to the pass over-rides the lights and GPS marshaling system indicator on the dash. The pass was legal. Does anyone really think Vettel would try something that blatant, so near the pit exit? Do people really think these races are run without observers? At every flag station, in every stand, along every inch of track, there are several marshals, cameras, and folks in the control booth watching every car and every interaction between cars. On top of that, every car has a radio, adding additional observers at that level. The scrutineer noise behind the scenes at these events is amazing. Yet, we are to believe that all those observers, all those teams scrutinizing the action of competitors, missed something an FIA released in-car video reveals? Seriously? This is just more uncalled for and fabricated Vettel bashing. Mark It's clear he violated and ignored the yellow flag. So what's new? they always cheat to win the title. Scuderia Ferrari I think will no longer lodge a complaint… besides, the winner has been announced. That pass could have been a 10 second penalty or a drive though penalty for the cheaters. Alon-SobSobSob @mark The only thing being violated here is truth and common sense, by fans of Alonso. Whats goin on? Why do people talk about Alonso now….??? If you guys want to defend Vettel and not accept the truth dont simply abuse Alonso…..ppl who support RBR are ppl who want to support the team which just wins….stupid! Danilo Schöneberg People talk about Alonso, because these preposterous claims come from the Spanish Media. Most people already have accepted the truth. And the truth is that the whole straight was a green-flag zone, because of the Marshal at the exit of T3. Sorry to piss in your salad, but Alonso lost the title on the track and he won't win it by false claims of illegal passes that were actually legal. Butterfly Word on the street is Ferrari will file a protest tomorow. Let the games begin. Vettel could lose the 2011 title, boys. FantansticSeasonAnyways Green flag, yellow flag… That WAS NOT a legal overtaking because the dash light (i.e. flag) is valid FROM the track line where it flashes (i.e. Vettel made the pass with yelllow flag). Not sure on consequences: let the toro rosso pass, drive through or add-on time penalty. Rule are rules but common sense it's also important and therefore: in the first case I would not make a claim as honestly that would not have substantially changed anything, in the other two cases well, that was an ILLEGAL pass and could have hugely changed the race result. jl @butter you dick head spanish. Vettel will not loose his 2011 title, nor 2012. it's strange I only read this news on yallaf1 only, not on crash nor formula1. is yallaf1 spanish press? or,… aloser lovers? purnomo OK guys lets makes it clear, maybe you can't see the flags/lights clearly due to bad wheater…. But lets see Vettel's dashboard….on the both corners (left and right) there are two lights,when yellow flag being waved, the lights become yellow, when it's green the lights are off….. Whats goin on? @purnomo exactly thats what am saying…. but redbull fans dont want to accept this…..and simply abuses alonso and blame this site for just reporting the news….. jl incompetent purnomo, stop at 0:24 you see on the left. the light was on or off? it's on!! You are blinded by alonso words!! check another f1 website press as crash and official formula1,.. this news alone is rubbish. Whats goin on? @jl Check 'the f1 times'…. @butterfly: you sure about the protest…? maverick Red Bull and Vettel obviously don't give a sh*t about any rules! It's really funny seeing Red Bull and Vettel fans constantly accusing Ferrari and Alonso of cheating LOL. Damn stupid hypocrites! You Vettel and Red Bull fanboys should look into a mirror before accusing anyone of cheating! Anthony I'm also becoming quite disenchanted with Yalla. The bias of the editors of this site has become absurd over the last year. Just look at the stories posted. There are nearly as many stories about an illegal pass, neither of which were seriously considered by the FIA, as there are about Vettel winning the WDC. I won't be coming here much anymore as a result. The only exception will be when I need a good laugh at Ferrari, Alonso, and their moronic fans. It must really chap their behinds that a crappy drinks company, in eight short years, was able to build a dynasty. All the while the "great" Scuderia Ferrari has been languishing. I think suicide watch may be necessary for those in Maranello and the Tifosi. jl I wacth and slow down the video a few times. From 0:00 to 0:15 it yellow, no overtake. Now stop at 0:19 and the bigger one 0:24 on the left, it's green. It just a second limits when Safety Car back to pit. Every F1 driver know there are rare seconds to pass just when yellow flag turn to green. I just wonder why it's only 24 seconds, I believe longer version will show us vettel's position. Just a few seconds again he will appear on Start/Finish line which mean it's the last lap for SC. fools here come the crack pipe haters haha… Why so hard on Alonso if this is about vettel @ Joe… you mad bro? lmfao…. the WORLD already knows Alonso was robbed and his WDC was lost since Spa. I even know that… Suzuka was the wrap up. Considering it was both Renault's/Lotus. Cant get anymore obvious. Alonso had a perfect season until then. fools Funny how haters still come back on here to talk bullshit when the 2012 WDC is already over and Ferrari and Alonso have not protested against it. So why do the haters keep coming back to bash Alonso when the picture and article is about Redbull. Some true haters on this site who cant let there internet bullying and bashing go. smh You Alonso haters need to stfu and read and stop commenting. Forza Ferrari hahahaa so funny reading how the butthurt Vettel fanboys get all agressive and try to protect their litlle finger boy with all kinds of pathetic stories here. Relax, we Ferrari fans don't even want that title because it would be tainted, so the finger boy can keep that title that he won by cheating (no surprise there). Our 2nd places in both championships have much more value, because we earned it fair and square with hard work. Red Cow and finger boy can keep their cheating titles, Ferrari and Alonso will go for it again next year. So you can stop your crying and bitching now, Vettel fanboys. Butterfly @Whats goin on?: I read about the rumor. It appears Alonso got pissed upon seeing the footage and pressed Ferrari to push ahead with this. Maybe Stefano Domenicali doesn't have the b@lls to do it, so Fernando put his foot down. I saw the video myself and it was clearly an overtake on the Toro Rosso. Vettel was going full throttle whilst the Toro Rosso saw the yellow LEDs and slowed down. Vettel's dash was also showing two (2) yellow LEDs – he was clearly in the no-overtake zone. I also read that Red Bull saw that and told Vergne to stay within 20s so that any penalty would preserve Vettel's position, but I'm not sure about that – it may be true, though. The overtake part is the meat of the problem. If Ferrari doesn't protest, Alonso will surely turn his back on them. He already said something on his Twitter along the lines "love those that protect you" or something like that. It's the moment of truth for Ferrari's relationship with Fernando. Butterfly @fools: Ferrari can protest until November 30th. Butterfly @jl: What I meant was he'll fail to keep the title he won in 2011. Being a d-head doesn't really suit me, kid. Harsha watch?feature=player_embedded&v=Ku979qCzAWA it was a You tube video just watch it guys Butterfly I saw another one, but even in the one you showed there, you can clearly see the two LEDs on the dash. He should have waited until exiting the yellow zone, but I guess he was in a hurry. Harsha @butterfly That doesn't matter once you saw a green flag you can make a Move. The Flags are Highest Priority then it comes to the Screens. So i believe Sebastian's pass was legal as he saw a Green flag and then He made the Move. You can argue for Lights on Wheel or the green Light Screen ahead of Him. but as i said that was a Legitimate Pass in my view Butterfly @Harsha: No, buddy, the green flag marks the end of the no-overtake zone. You can overtake once you're past the green flag. The no-overtake zone begins with a yellow flag and ends with a green flag. More yellows may be between those two, but the green one marks the end. Harsha @butterfly I'm sorry i couldn't explained it better but what you said that was My point and he Passed Vergne after the Green Flag so it ends the Yellow flag region as you said and the Pass was legal . Thanks for clearing it up and what's your take on the Move now Butterfly @Harsha: He overtook *before* reaching the green signal. Not to mention that while he was under yellows, he was running like mad. You also have to reduce speed, don't you? Butterfly Have a look at this, guys. This guy will explain it all. I'm watching it right now. watch?v=LFER0esusF0&feature=player_embedded Just put the YouTube address in front of that. Don't forget the slash. Harsha @butterfly I believe that only in the Problematic Region you need to slow down and on other parts of Yellow flag region you can go faster. Flagmen as far as i know overrules the screens (and cockpit lights, which are connected to the screens). So once Sebastian Crossed the Green flag he made the Move. Disgusted with 2012 The signal procedures and rules are as follows: 1.) Manned flag stations take precedence over all other signals, lights, GP Marshaling devices or team pit boards 2.) The signal light system is an auxiliary system, that reflects the status of the track segment where the signal is placed. However, this does not always coincide with the manned flag stations due to accessibility and safety of marshaling personnel. Delays in light signals from flag station signals are possible, as the flag stations respond to voice command, which is then used to change the lighted signal. Also, if a signal changes behind a driver, he cannot see it, so obeys the next station signal or flag, should it be different than the last signal seen. When in doubt, see rule one. 3.) The in-car GP Marshalling system is operated from a separate system responding to the light signal system and is subject to the same delays as the lighting system – so may not reflect current signal status at the exact track position, therefore, rule number one applies. There was a waving green flag – there is no issue with the pass. But, please carry on. The season may be over, but the echo of the hatred here remains clear as a bell. Ring ring away. Harsha @butterfly I believe you need to lift only in the Problematic part of Yellow Flag not all the entire Yellow Zone and as you said he made the pass right after the Green flag wave. Flagmen as far as i know overrules the screens (and cockpit lights, which are connected to the screens) So i can say all the pass was Legal Butterfly Disgusted with 2012: Even with the human-to-LED delay, he still overtook under yellows. John @ Bitterfly I think there's enough evidence on this page to prove that it's the flags that the drivers must obey first, the lights are a supplement to these. And from the videos and images posted that Vettel passed a GREEN flag before his overtake manoeuvre. Therefore, the pass was legal. quattro How come no one is talking about the other thing to notice in the video in the article – the actual fact that a STR ONCE AGAIN lifted in order to give VET a free ride and let him by? The lift is quite obvious as the distance between the STR car and the pack infront, that he should be racing with, was getting huge while he was GIVING the position to VET. Once again collusion between RB & STR is clearly demonstrated – this time at the championship deciding race. ALO racing 22 cars while VET, with a package at least 5 tenths faster per lap gets to race only 20. I guess his team and fans feel he needs both in order to beat someone like ALO. Disgusted with 2012 The slow mo video that helps you see the flag station waving the green is on YouTube, by "AxisVon Oversteer". Search for this video tag on YouTube and it will come up: Ku979qCzAWA You can see the flagman waving a green flag at the station just before the Johny Walker Bridge. This video does not have the overlay graphic, which blocks visibility of the stand, and the slow motion of the film allows you to see the flag waving. This is why the issue is not being carried anywhere serious, or addressed by the FIA, or any team. Note that Vettel did not initiate the pass until he saw the flag, and did not execute it until past the station. Note also, the theory that the Toro Rosso slowed is also shown to be inaccurate, Vettel was holding station to clear the yellows, nothing more. When he was free to pass, he accelerated and passed, end of story. quattro …oh wait, he fellow German – M Shoemaker does not race him either when it counts, as was clearly demonstrated in the finale. We are down at 19…and counting. jl From a friend: You guys should forward this video to FIA and the race stewards..(:rollmyeyes:).. Look..the "experts" who are the judges and know their business (not Alonso homers or Vettel haters) spent hours studying every shot and every angle and they said it was "LEGAL"…. Now their decision vs alonso homers scrapping for anything (just anything) to prove their delusional hopes…I think I am going to stick with the ones who know what they are looking at and been there and done that.. Alonso homers give it a rest..with the all cheating Ferrari did and order to Massa to help him he stunk up and lost…And Vettel haters..sorry to tell you …yet again he proves you all wrong and HE is the best driver in the world, YET AGAIN :). I don't know 2013, may be another driver become the best. fools jl still talking shit…when he knows nothing..like anyone would believe your false accusations. stfu hater and smoke some crack foo jl 0:15 ,.. left. there are a marshal station. we can not see clearly if there ar flag waved, specially from camera on moving fast car and low quality vids on youtube. honestly i also can not see well. let's hope we get official explanation from FIA. This delution hope from Fernando and his fans are so annoying. Butterfly @fools: Watch the video I posted below. That guy explains the rules, shows all three overtakes and why the first two (HRT & Sauber) were legal and why the third one (TR) wasn't. A few posts down. Forza Ferrari @Butterfly Oh just give it a rest already. Even if Vettel did overtake under yellow then would you really want Alonso to win the title like this, a week later? As a Ferrari fan I would love nothing more than Alonso to win the title, but not like this, that's for sure. I'm not happy with Vettel's cheating either, but if FIA penalises Vettel and gives the title to Alonso then I'm sorry but that title would be pretty much worthless. It would never feel right. And I'm sure that Alonso wouldn't want to win the title in this way either. So let the finger boy keep his cheating title and Alonso and Ferrari will give it another shot next season. Butterfly @Forza Ferrari: Yes, I would want Alonso to win the title because he got more points. There is no shame in using the system like that. Lawyers do it all the time, so why shouldn't Ferrari? This idea that it's dishonorable is complete rubbish. It's not like they're kidnapping Vettel and forcing him to sign a paper whereby he gives the title to Alonso… One more good thing to come out of this, besides the title itself, is Ferrari's image of being aggressive. They need it as much as Alonso needs that title. jl All talk become wasting time since all of alonso fans think they know better than stewards. Why don't you send your jobs experiences to FIA? I doubt even one of you already touch F1 cars, the stewards know every corner of F1 cars and their business. The weather, low quality video, fast moving car, spanish press,…. gosh. Delusion hope. I really want to see clear explanation from FIA, just before Nov 30 please. If Vettel must loose his title, then no problem at all, just under the rule. But if it's clear he passed after green flag, Alonso and his fans must learn how to accept a lost, how to accept a fact. Actually they must learn it just when chequered flag of Brazilian GP waved. Forza Ferrari @Butterfly I think Ferrari already proved their aggressiveness and will to win in Austin. That was an absolutely brilliant move and the right one, but winning the title on a technicality a week later would be a farce. Shame on FIA for not noticing it during the race, but I personally wouldn't want that tainted title anymore. And I really hope that Ferrari doesn't appeal. Let's just set our sighs on beating the Red Cow and finger boy in 2013. sdfsd Hahaha, Elvis is still alive :d, look at the guy with the headphones in the 1st picture. quattro @Forza Ferrari Sorry but what do you mean by "winning the title on a technicality a week later"? Have you not seen what Fernando has done all year long, with that donkey of a car that qualifies 6-7 on average? Have you not seen all those illegal parts that RB raced and took points with? Or the cheap position gains they got all year long from the STR puppies and Shoemaker (in BRA)? I think most racers will feel and tell you that there is only one champion this year, and certainly his name is no Vettel…or Newey. 2012 is Fernandos, I would not care a bit wheather it comes a week, a year later or never. The point is already made – Newey took it 2012 using another dominant car and still needed a big chunck of luck (that is the technicality actually) – but 2012 ALO became a legend. Maybe only maybe, Senna would be capable of making a year like this with a car like that…really that is a big maybe and I believe he would not. Alonso_is_slow another sneaky attempt from Alonso's marketing department. The whole thing is made up, no evidence. Ii can be simply ignored. Most important for Alonso is to advertise himself again and please all low-IQ fans like @fool and @bitterfly to be able to sell more Merchandise and maximize profits with no actual performance. i am quite amused to read all excitement for nothing. purnomo i dont think drivers will watch marshall box at every corner to see what flags being waved…they just see lights on the dash… I'm not Fan from a certain drivers or teams..but to be honest, in Brazil Vettel made so many mistakes and get helped from so many (germans) drivers……. Looks when vettel overtook schummy so easy, it's looks like schumy let vettel go away just like that.Not to mention Vergne,ricciardo,rosberg,glock and other renault drivers……. And f1 community include Ralf Schumacher said it was right thing to do…….but when Alo nagging about petrov in abu dhabi 2010, they said ALO was a cry baby……. i will respect vettel if he can win without adrian newey…until then i think, ALO,KIMI,HAM are not not the same level as vettel …they way above vettel Not Bernie @quattro Alonso is an above average driver. Nothing more. Last couple of races Massa was beating him. His previous championship were when Ferrari had duff tyres one year, and poor reliability the next. And don't forget that the mass-damper that Alonso used at the time was also deemed illegal and banned. All the cars, Ferrari included, have passed pre and post race scrutineering and therefore were legal at the time of the race. Clarifications may have been issues later (eg mass damper) to tighten up regulations, and even Ferrari would have responded to those. There is no case to answer; Vettel won the championship. May I also point out that I have been to two Grand Prixs, both times in support of Ferrari when Schumacher and then Kimi were driving. I was there watching in awe when Vettel won his first race because he was absolutely perfect in to the first chicane everytime. No other driver that day could make that claim. purnomo i thnik the situation jut like Maradona's goal on world cup….yes it was hands ball, but the referee didn.t see that, until now it's still a legit goal, so Vettel can keep the title but i would love to see FIA say that they made mistakes and tell us the truth. i dont think Alo or Ferrari's fans wants the title after a week…. madnessisfame FIA either incompatible or a cheat, FIA either incompatible or a cheat, FIA either incompatible or a cheat. Just check out the Vettel/Senna accident…this was for sure no racing incident. But to to all you Ferrari and Alonso Fans…why do you really put up with the haters…I could disrespect you when defend Alonso or compare him with Vettel…Vettel is happen to be a great driver but not enough to compare him with Alonso…Vettel with all fairness is no match to Alonso…he just happened to be in a Newey tech fast car, and luck supremely was on his side in 2010 & 2012. Have him to drive a Lotus/Ferrari/Mercedes or the Sauber, trust me you will hardly see much of him, and on a good lucky day he might be on a podium…i.e. fighters like Kimi/Hamilton/Massa or Schumi are way far better than him at any day… Ok…Alonso wasn't only fighting Newey, but also his unworthy F2012. Alonso's determination was driving the RedBulls up the wall this season when he was on the podium most of the season scoring valuable points in one of the worst Ferrari ever built since 1990. Remember he was simply praised by many F1 experts "as one of all time greatest"…they did not exaggerate. For me, he spiced up F1… Alpha-Orion lol ha, they should DQ vettel so Caterham get a point jl @purnomo. Why don't you put your own national footbal association man in front of vettel's car? You don't understand the case. 1. see the map of interlagos circuit. You'll find on tbat spot there are marshal box. 2. the problem is low quality video , moving cars and weather. 3. It's not about luck, it's about rule. We will wait confirmation from FIA, they know better. I hope there are confirmation. Forza Ferrari @quattro Why are you telling me all this? I know that Alonso was by far the best driver this season and this title should've been his, without any doubt. Alonso was absolutely perfect throughout the season and he deserved this WDC title the most. But now the title is gone unfortunately and it's time to accept it and hope for better luck next season. If FIA penalises Vettel and gives the title to Alonso then it would feel like winning the Olympic gold medal 2 years later, because the person who won it got disqualified. This whole big scandal would take all the joy out of winning the title, I'm sure that Alonso feels the same way. Winning this title by cheating will always be on Vettel's conscience and karma will get even with him sooner or later, trust me. Ferrari and Alonso need to hold their heads up high and feel proud of what they accomplished, and concentrate on beating Adrian Newey in 2013. jl @forza. Once i am ferrari fans, but since alonso get his seat there i quit. Alonso will not grow up, he want the title by any means. It's not vettel who cheat. There are green flag waved on marshal box, but. on vidoe it's not clear due weather, speed and bad quality vids. Forza Ferrari @madnessisfame The Ferrari F2012 wasn't that bad of a car at all as you try to make it look. In the first couple of races, yes, it was slow, but from the Spanish GP onwards it was always a top 3 car, especially on race pace. F2012's only weak-point was qualifying speed, but it made up for it with excellent race pace and reliability. So you trying to say like it was "one of the worst F1 cars ever" is pure crap! Felipe Massa's great results in the end of the season proved exactly how good car the F2012 actually was. It wasn't as fast as RB or Macca but it was still a good fast and reliable car. I can understand that you're Alonso fan, but give Ferrari credit where credit's due or just shut up! Kimi4WDC Why is this even discussed? Have you ever compete in a race? Try to overrule or come up with an excuse why you ignored marshals sign, he will DSQ you with no further questions. Many kids learn it with endless tears while still racing go-karts. Marshal waved GREEN, it's GREEN. If marshal waves RED, dashboard shows GREEN – good luck. If your navigator tells you to turn left while you on the bridge – sure. jl @kimi4WDC great point, I agree with you. Vettel must take his consequence if he broke the rule, which I believe not. it's Green Flag on the box. It's spanish media and Alonso pushing the protest, Ferrari seem let it go. Related to this case, I believe Massa and Alonso will switch position. Massa will be number 1 driver for these reason. 1. Fernando hurt all Ferrari engineer, do not praise their work by saying: I got slow car. 2. Massa is a great team player. He never protest his boss/team command. 3. Massa outperformed Alonso in last races. I hope he will do it next year from very begining of the sason. jl +@purnomo bodoh. footbal is different with F1. in footbal long whistle from referee, all case on field end. in F1, chequered flag doesn't mean final result, it just the sign of last lap. if you brooke the rule something, which is punishment, will wait you. Mark I prefer 1000 times a suposely cheater Vettel passing the Toro Rosso 40m before green light than a "I got a slow car but I cant help my team to develop it" crybaby, a "tell massa to give me the position 5 more times please" slow crybaby, a "tell Nelson Piquet Jr to crash other people so I can win this Singapore GP please" coward and slow fktard. Really, is that the guy you wish he had won the championship? I laugh at you all spanish crybabies. jl I saw this case just a prove how great is Vettel in 2012, he saw green flag on bad condition just in nano second and take advantage. Remember, Alonso spin. It really hurt to wacth how people still try to take a championship title 4 days after the race end. They looking for every small doubtly crack. How an unimaginable loser. They should learn a defeat and try to make themself a better person/team to become a champion. Mark It's obvious that vettel overtook the car in front of him while it was flagging yellow. You vettel followers should know that when a yellow flag is flashed, it doesnt mean the entire track, reason why on the left part of the screen it shows green flag. Do understand that when yellow flags are flashed, it means that that certain area of the track you cannot overtake, and the following part of the circuit is clear for overtaking thats why a green flag is being flashed. It's good that some concerned viewers got this video, or else, the fingerboy could have gotten away with it again. With a pass like that during a yellow flag, 10 sec should be added to the driver who ignored the flag, which when you add to vettels finish time, would move him further to 8th or 9th place making him lose the title. Aren't you vettel-people happy the FIA didn't see that? SirN Spanish are bad loosers!!! Crybabies :-).. "Mom, he was cheating :`(" rofl Go working hard, not watching videos, than you might live without german aid money!! Ghazi Andika Rai some alonso fans are 'blamming' newey for vettel wdc ….. LOL some alonso fans are 'blamming' newey for vettel wdc ….. LOL Ghazi Andika Rai some alonso fans are 'blamming' newey for vettel wdc ….. LOL @madnessisfame : "…Vettel with all fairness is no match to Alonso…he just happened to be in a Newey tech fast car… " "…Ok…Alonso wasn't only fighting Newey, but also his unworthy F2012…." @purnomo: "…i will respect vettel if he can win without adrian newey……" @quattro: "…I think most racers will feel and tell you that there is only one champion this year, and certainly his name is no Vettel…or Newey…." " …The point is already made – Newey took it 2012 using another dominant car and still needed a big chunck of luck …" LOL ….pathetic quattro @Not Bernie You are so way off in your statements, especially that regarding the legality of the massdampers, that I will not even bother responding. I will just amuze you with this one. "Alonso is an above average driver. Nothing more." Well, since ALO has beaten the heck out of Hamilton for three consequtive years now, with what can be proven to be a slower to much slower package, by your standards Hamilton is an below average driver. Are you now realizing how below average intelligence you are? quattro @Forza Ferrari My point was that, rules are rules (at least most of the time, in F1). If it could be proven that VET breaked the rules, was punished and ALO was handed the title, it would not have been worth less at all. Imagine if it could be proven VET took his title inspite of breaking the rules at the last race…how worthy would that be? Also, do you thing RB would hesitate even a second to protest if they were in the same situation? quattro "The Ferrari F2012 wasn't that bad of a car at all as you try to make it look. In the first couple of races, yes, it was slow, but from the Spanish GP onwards it was always a top 3 car, especially on race pace. F2012?s only weak-point was qualifying speed" This is so contradictory statements… So you are saying F2012 wasn't that bad at all, since it was "always" (this is not true by the way) a top 3 car? How about when the car, over one lap is up to a second slower than the car VET drives, but still qualifies 6-7th – what is that for you? A championship winning car? When you make a statement regarding F2012 was a good car or not, you have to first decide which car you are comparing with, otherwise you are in fantasy world. Since ALO was obviously competing with the best car, you have to compare to it! Also, you seem to think that the Ferrari is "good" (and fans should not say it is a bad car) if it qualifies 6-7th on average, while the RB will EASILY take pole with a time up to a second faster PER LAP… Lets say like this then – F2012 was a really good car, BUT the RB & Mclaren were still up to a second per lap faster on low fuel so they were very very very much better. So therefore ALO had to, more or less EVERY race of the season outrace them on sunday from his bad qualy position to take more points. Like that better? madnessisfame @Forza Ferrari the F212 was no doubt a reliable car & did have some massive exist power which was hard to catch, but the car was all over the place with understeering and oversteering. They were hardly innovative like the lotus/Mac's/Bull's. But then they did improve the aggressive yet very sensitive car by end of mid season. After Sliverstone the car did not improve significantly, and every thing was blamed on the outdated wind tunnel. Non of the many desperate updates were working, and by end of season Massa decided to stick with the earlier mid season developments of the car and his setups out paced Alonso and his useless updates…That was Massa who couldn't even score half the points Alonso brought in. The last best Ferrari produced was in 2008…and until now its a struggling car…To win championships the car more or less has to start in the front of the grid. Perhaps after all the evolution of the current car will be a good surprise and thus learnt in depth from all the errors this season…and hopefully Ferrari will still be able to build the strongest shrunk turbo engines for the coming future.

Cahill a doubt for Chelsea's trip to Man City
Gary Cahill could miss Chelsea's FA Cup trip to Man City on Saturday with an injury he picked up at West Brom on Tuesday.
The England defender suffered a slight problem during the second-half, but decided to continue playing.
"Once I got the knock, I was struggling from then on," he told the Evening Standard.
"It happened when a West Brom player went for a header and I was on the floor. He landed just inside my knee/calf. It is sore and we'll see what it's like today."
Meanwhile, Cahill's central defensive partner John Terry is expected to return from injury for the fixture.

City will move forward on Walmart deal in July
MONROE - The city will likely start moving forward on the Walmart deal in early July once the appeal period has ended, city administrator Gene Brazel said last week.
The city last month won an appeal at the state Court of Appeals brought by a citizens group challenging the city's approval of the Walmart project to build in the North Kelsey development area.
The lawsuit against the city has put the project on hold since 2011. The city owns the property and the land deal will bring in $7.3 million to the city. City finance director Dianne Nelson said the entire amount will go to pay down the debt the city owes on the North Kelsey property. That total debt before the Walmart payment is $11.3 million.
Part of the May court ruling, however, mandates the city look at the issue of lighting and pedestrian seating in the planned development area for the 155,000-square-foot superstore. The future home of Walmart at one time had specific design guidelines. Some of the design guidelines still stand within city code, and the court found the city didn't meet those guidelines with regards to height of lighting fixtures and styling guidelines for public seating areas.
The city will hold a public hearing on the lighting and seating issues in early July, Brazel said.
The design plan will have to be augmented, and the city will review the new plan and possibly make additional changes, Brazel said.
After that, the permitting process will begin, which per the contract with Sabey (which is selling to Walmart) is likely to move swiftly.
"Part of the land sale agreement with Sabey was the issuance of non-discretionary permits," Brazel said. Several building permits must be issued by the city before construction can begin, and the contract says the city can't hold up the permits unnecessarily, he said.
If Sabey meets all the requirements of non-discretionary permits, per the contract, the city can't just say no to hold up construction.
"If they meet all the codes, they can obtain (the permits)," Brazel said.
A representative from Walmart said last month that the store will bring 300 permanent jobs to the area as well as temporary contract construction jobs.
"We've had some proposals of businesses wanting to go in as soon as (Walmart) opens their doors," Brazel said. "We have people waiting in the wings, major businesses, restaurants."

Convinced Garfield had devised a truly outstanding game, Adkison carefully laid the kindling for the fire he thought Magic would set by getting the word--and the product--out all over the game industry. "We already had the distribution channels in place from our earlier games," he explains. "Even though none of our games had done very well, people were carrying our line and knew we had integrity, so when we called to say `We have something we know is going to sell better than anything else we've done,' they worked with us and ordered more."
One nationwide distributor in particular, Wargames West Distribution in Albuquerque, New Mexico, spotted the game as a future hit and pitched in with big advertising dollars, effectively hitching its wagon to Magic's fiery horses--and then had to hold on for dear life. "My initial order was for 24 units, my second was for 572, and my third was `Send everything you've got in the warehouse,' " recalls Wayne Godfrey, Wargames' CEO. Godfrey estimates he sold $700,000 worth of Magic card sets in the last five months of 1993, then 10 times that amount ($7 million) in 1994.
Godfrey decided to carry Magic after running into Adkison at a Ft. Worth, Texas, game convention. At 2 a.m. one night, Godfrey happened across Adkison wide-eyed and playing Magic with two teenagers in the hotel lobby. "This was obviously a guy who loved what he was doing," Godfrey says. "He wasn't in it for money alone--he had a passion." Godfrey concluded that Adkison was precisely the kind of entrepreneur he wanted to bankroll.
The next step for Adkison was to show the game to potential players. Having worked without a vacation for three years, Adkison and his wife, Cathleen, finally took one in August 1992, driving down the California coast with decks of Magic cards. They stopped at some 15 fantasy game stores and hobby shops to demonstrate and hype the game. As soon as they got home, they hopped a plane for Milwaukee, where they showed the game at GenCon, a convention for hobby gamers.
"That's where we saw word-of-mouth really take off," Adkison says. "It is incredibly effective if your product is genuinely better than anyone else's, which we knew Magic was. People think it's amazing, and they go home pumped up and tell all their friends about it. It pulls the product through the pipeline."
Garfield says that while he was always optimistic about the game's potential, he hadn't factored in the boost the game would get on the Internet, via the game chat rooms that first linked him with Adkison. "Word-of-mouth is one thing, but having people talk about your product on the Internet is like throwing kerosene on the fire," he says. "It took off."
Sales boomed so fast, Wizards of the Coast had to run to keep up. Ask Adkison how he managed employee growth from five to 250 in three years and he simply says, "Agonizingly." Moving out of the Adkison's basement into commercial office space in 1994 to make room for all those employees helped. And to better handle the boom, he recently enrolled in an MBA program at the University of Washington in Seattle ("I wish I'd done it before everything went crazy," he says).
Despite their inexperience, Wizards' founders managed to sidestep some potentially dangerous pitfalls. A big one was legal protection of their intellectual property--the characters in Magic. "We didn't know we were in a position where somebody could have taken everything away from us," Adkison says. "We got it all registered and protected just in time."
Avoiding such potentially dangerous situations is easy, he says, if you get good advice. "I always tell people to do what we [eventually] did: Set up a board of directors made up of people who have done what you're doing," says Adkison. "Everybody has advice for somebody starting a business, but the only advice worth anything comes from people who have done it themselves."

After the High Holy Days Makom Shalom returns to our space at Epiphany UCC church on the north side. Epiphany UCC is located on the corner of Damen and Bradley (street address 2008 W. Bradley), between Addison and Irving Park on Damen. The entrance is off the courtyard on Bradley
If traveling by public transportation, the best bet is the Damen bus. You can take other buses that go east-west to Damen to get it if necessary. Get off at Waveland Avenune and walk one block north.
You can also get off at the Addison stop of the Brown line, which lets you off about a block or two east of Damen. Walk two blocks west on Addison, then walk north on Damen to Epiphany Church.
From 90/94, get off at either the Addison or Irving Park eastbound exits and go east approximately one and a half miles to Damen. Go either north (from Addison) or South (from Irving Park) to Bradley Place. If coming via Lake Shore Drive, get off at either the Irving Park or Belmont exits and go west about two miles to Damen. Then take Damen either north from Belmont or south from Irving Park.
There is usually ample non-zoned free street parking in this safe residential area. If nothing is available on the street, try the Corus Bank lot on the corner of Irving Park and Damen, 2 blocks north of the church. The entrance is off the courtyard on Bradley.

LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Authorities say an SUV driven by a man who was fatally shot by Little Rock police wasn't actually stolen, although officers thought it may have been stolen shortly before the driver was killed.
Little Rock Police said Monday that an SUV driven by 26-year-old Deon Williams appeared to match the description of a stolen vehicle.
However, Little Rock Police spokeswoman Sgt. Cassandra Davis said Tuesday that the vehicle wasn't actually stolen.
Authorities say Williams fled from police and produced a gun before an officer shot and killed him.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Pulaski County authorities have arrested a man for the strangling death of a woman whose body was found in a wooded area.
Officials say 36-year-old James Clyde Martin is charged with first-degree murder in the death of Robbin Gore.
The Arkansas Democrat-Gazette reports that Martin confessed to striking Gore and fatally strangling her with a belt.
Officials say the body was dumped in woods near the Dixon Manor Mobile Home Park.
A fisherman found the body on Friday. Relatives told authorities that Gore hadn't been heard from since July 4.
JONES MILL — A disturbance was reported to the Hot Spring County Sheriff's Office Friday afternoon at the Remmel Dam Landing in the Jones Mill area.
Deputies on the scene said a fight between two men had heated to the point that one hit the other with a baseball bat.
The men apparently didn't know each other but got into a confrontation near the pier on Lake Catherine
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Drought conditions are returning to Arkansas as hot, dry weather settles into the state.
Data released Thursday by the U.S. Drought Monitor shows that 18 percent of the state is now in a moderate drought and more than 75 percent of the state is considered abnormally dry. A week ago, only 13 percent of the state was considered abnormally dry, with the rest of the state reporting no drought conditions at all.
The areas covered in the moderate drought classification include Madison, Newton, Searcy, Johnson, Pope and Van Buren counties in the north.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Weather forecasters say Arkansas is showing signs of a developing drought and the state Forestry Commission is warning of a heightened fire danger.
After ample rainfall in the cooler months, precipitation levels have fallen below normal in recent weeks. The National Weather Service on Tuesday issued an advisory that moisture levels in vegetation have dropped to the point that the danger of wildfires is heightened.
The Forestry Commission lists all of the state except northeast Arkansas at a moderate danger of wildfires.
It might not be everyday, but somewhere somebody is looking over Hot Spring County and thinking about all the good reasons to live here.
Editorial writers across this country more often than not throw out a few lines to get people fired up about something.

A resolution declaring two structures in Malvern as unfit and unsafe was presented to the Malvern City Council Monday night.
The properties called "unsafe, unsanitary and unfit for human habitation" were 1528 East Mill Street and 1625 Harper Street.

Spa Blast will include a Kids Zone with inflatable rides, concessions, misting tent and live music earlier in the evening by up and coming local country group Downday.
Guests are encouraged to park in the North Lot for easier access to the infield. Lawn chairs and blankets are welcome. No coolers will be allowed.Â
The Malvern Daily Record is always looking to offer new features. Right now on the drawing board is a project to spotlight the people in our community that make a difference — a difference in a positive way.
Those people could be volunteers or anyone having a positive impact toward helping the community and the people who live here in our readership area.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark. (AP) — Four work zones will greet Arkansas motorists on major state highways during the holiday weekend, but state highway officials say Interstate 40 between Little Rock and Memphis will have all lanes open.
The state Highway and Transportation Department on Tuesday urged drivers to be careful while in the construction areas.
Traffic on I-40 near Hazen has been snarled for months because of construction around the White River bridge, but Highway Department Director Scott Bennett said work is nearly complete and all lanes will be open.

The Magician
by Michael Scott
Compact | Rate recommendations
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Like the first book in this series, this one was just okay. Almost all of it was less-than-exciting, but at the very end it was actually quite suspenseful and that surprised me. This book is okay for a fantasy novel, but it certainly isn't written as well as I think a novel about Nicholas Flamel should be.
So now that I have finished the series I feel it is better to review the series. I hate starting a series with a great book but then it all goes downhill from there. I want to know if the series is worth reading. Never fear, no spoilers in here. I enjoyed the first few books and found the characters to be well developed and likeable. There were a few books in the middle of the series that were less than stellar. They were not horrible but sometimes the books mid story can get a bit slow and these did. The author did a nice job ending the series though. The final books are surprising and fast paced. I enjoyed this series and would recommend it to fantasy/mythology lovers from preteen through adult.
I really like this book because it is never boring. In the beginning, Sophie and Josh have completely changed in less than a week. They are wishing they were back home more than anything. In The book, Perenelle (Perry) is trapped on alcatraz with monsters right out of your worst nightmare and a sphinx roaming the hallways. Aso, Sophie and Josh have learned that Nicolas Flamel's book, the codex has a prophecy about them! In thIs book, Sophie learns the magis of fire and Josh is awakened. (Mya)
As much fun as the first book! Reading them so close together, parts were a little repetitive, but I care about and am interested in the characters.

Every person has free choice. Free to obey or disobey the Natural Laws. Your choice determines the consequences. Nobody ever did, or ever will, escape the consequences of his choices.Alfred A. Montapert

Fighting hard to protect yourself and your relatives is good for your genes, but when captured and escape is not possible, giving up short of dying and making the best you can of the new situation is also good for your genes.Keith Henson
Good men, whether they be Christians or rationalists, do not desire to discriminate between races, but the distinctions implanted by Nature are too conspicuous to escape the observation of our senses.Arthur Keith

It is vain for the coward to flee; death follows close behind; it is only by defying it that the brave escape.Voltaire

KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Tennessee quarterback Nate Peterman will miss at least four weeks after undergoing surgery on his right hand.
Volunteers coach Butch Jones announced Peterman's injury Monday. Peterman injured his hand in Saturday's 31-17 loss to No. 20 Florida. It was first collegiate start and he was 4 of 11 for 5 yards with two interceptions and one fumble before being replaced late in the first half by Justin Worley.
Jones says Peterman wasn't replaced because of the injury but "as of right now, Justin Worley is our starter." Worley started Tennessee's first three games. Jones says he'd have a more definitive timetable for Peterman's return later this week.
Freshmen Riley Ferguson and Joshua Dobbs are listed as second-team quarterbacks on the depth chart for Saturday's game with South Alabama (2-1).

Sara Wivell performs a variety of massage services at Massage Arts. For example, deep-tissue massage helps ease pain and oust deep-seated knots from shoulders and backs.
Mother-daughter team of Dr. Theresa and Dr. Jenna McIntosh founded Acupuncture Associates of Plantation, Inc. after discovering acupuncture and Chinese medicine from a patient's perspective and have run their business from the same location for the last 14 years. After two years of unsuccessfully battling asthma with medication, Dr. Theresa McIntosh sought out a holistic health practitioner. Within two weeks, she was breathing easy.
That rapid-healing experience inspired Dr. McIntosh to attend Chinese Medical School. Now, the two channel their skills to unearth the root causes of clients' ailments and to treat them with acupuncture sessions and Chinese herbal medicine blends. The pair treat issues such as migraines, arthritis, back and neck pain, and allergies, and also maintain a special focus on gynecological health and fertility issues and symptoms related to menopause.
To licensed acupuncturist Rebecca Bridges, surgery and prescription drugs should be a last resort. At Bridges-To-Health - Plantation, she opts to heal patients with holistic techniques that foster the connection between bodies and minds. Her go-to treatment is acupuncture, the ancient Chinese treatment that stimulates the body's Qi, or life energy, by inserting thin needles into parts of the body. Other alternative-health services include cupping, herbal medicine, and tui na massage.
At Broward Acupuncture and Holistic Medicine, Johanna Nazzar bridges Eastern and Western medicine to forge a holistic health plan catered to each patient. Nazzar draws on the physiological, environmental, and psychosocial components of each patient's health before prescribing acupuncture, Chinese herbs, or auricular therapy to help restore balance. Physicians also employ detailed diagnostic tools to evaluate the body, including hair-tissue analysis, food sensitivity tests, and biophotonic scanners that evaluate antioxidant levels.
Licensed acupuncturist and Doctor of Oriental Medicine Valencie Exceus—or Dr. Vie—helms Highpoint Healing and Wellness, where she and her staff use Eastern medicine and massage modalities to treat patients and their individual conditions. New patients engage in a one-on-one consultation with Dr. Vie as she reviews their medical histories and offers an in-depth discussion of their medical concerns to recommend the best course of action. Among the doctor's specialties are acupuncture, cupping, therapeutic massage, Chinese herbal medicine, and tuina. The center also offers Chinese medical massages aided by soothing essential oils, ambient music, trickling water fountains, and the gentle snores of a sleeping giant.
Lifetree Clinic's licensed acupuncturist, Junghyun Park, attempts to take some of the mystery out of acupuncture by thoroughly answering questions about the ancient practice on his website. He explains in depth how most clients feel while he is inserting the hair-thin needles, as well as how they feel after the needles have been in for a while. Instead of guaranteeing that acupuncture can solve any ailment, Park explains that, like Western medicine treatments and pleated pants, acupuncture may not work for everyone.
In addition to using acupuncture—which can alleviate problems such as digestive disorders, lower-back pain, and facial wrinkles—Park also relies on Chinese herbs, tui na massage, and cupping to improve health.

I've been an activist with Greenpeace for 30 years. In that time, I've delayed a nuclear weapons test, hung a banner on the Statue of Liberty, sailed on four oceans, lived in six countries, saved whales and learned to pilot a hot air balloon for the cause. I was setting up email communications with alligator clips in Moscow in the mid 1980s, online activism websites in the early 90s, and jumped all over twitter when it debuted at SXSW in 2006. As an early adopter, I learned how to spot technologies Greenpeace might bend to activist purposes and organizational needs, and developed some skills in getting them adopted.

Hunt for ex-officer goes on in storm
BIG BEAR LAKE, Calif. — All that was left were footprints leading away from Christopher Dorner's burned-out pickup truck, and an enormous, snow-covered mountain where he could be hiding among the skiers, cabins and dense woods.
More than 100 officers in glass-enclosed snow machines and armored personnel carriers sought the former Los Angeles police officer suspected of going on a deadly rampage and vowing to go after those on the force who wronged him.

Virtual Pets
Welcome to the Virtual Pet list forum!
We're a virtual pets and sim games community and the largest forum in our industry. Game owners can use our forum to their advatange by promoting/advertising their games to our users and receive feedback/reviews from those members that try their games out. We support developers of all kinds from RPG developers, sim game developers to virtual pet site developers. We want to see more games in our industry come across more success and that's why we try our best to release as many guides/articles regarding online gaming development as we can.
We're unlike other forums in our industry because we try our best to be there for our users no matter what and give them advice whenever they ask for it. Running an online game isn't an easy task, but with our many resources that we've built since 2011, you'll learn a lot from our online community. Please don't ever be afraid to ask a question on the forums because if you never ask, then you'll never receive an answer to your question and you can only improve by asking other users for help/advice.
We have a lot of virtual pet sites' owners and sim game owners that are very frequent visitors on our online community. Along with artists, writers and programmers that come here looking for work and games to work for. Our members who are artists sell art in our art marketplace and programmers are allowed to sell their scripts in the programming marketplace. We also allow game owners to sell their game in our general marketplace
In early 2011, we decided to make a comeback to the internet because in 2010, we had a minor setback and we had to re-launch without any content, but with a lot of time, patience, hardwork and effort, we've managed to rebuild the Virtual pet list community into something better than it was before. We actually registered our domain name on November 4th, 2004, but we were only a directory then and all we had was a basic comments system for users to post things on their favorite games..
So, what are you waiting for, why don't you join today? If you have any problems figuring out our security code, then here's a hint, it has millions upon users and has been around since 1997.
Our list of virtual pet sites and directory of sim games have a lot of different games listed, so we're pretty sure that you may find some games that suits your needs as a player of sim games or virtual pet sites.
If you're still curious about a certain game that you'd like to play, then please check out some of our game reviews that were written by some of our great contributors and our interviews with respective virtual pet site owners, sim game owners, artists, writers and programmers that have worked in this industry.
Over the next few days there may be some slight changes to VPL. If you see something going on don't be alarmed we most likely know about it! If you have any troubles please contact Evolution.
Happy Holidays

Hello there, I'm Martyn.
- Gender:

I'm your friendly neighborhood musician and virtual pet site developer, as well as a variety of other things.
I typically lurk, more than talk. But if you have any questions, don't be afraid to ask me.. I'll try my best to answer them or direct you to someone who can.
I've been around the pet site industry since I was around 10 years old, though I only ventured into it properly around 3 years ago. Currently I'm working on getting my own pet site up called Seripets, it requires a lot of work.
And that's about it, if you want to know anymore..
Just send me a message, thanks.

This is not just a slogan - it's the way we do business.
Since its inception in 1988, Myths and Mountains has been a pioneer in the field of customized and solo travel. We know that there's no such thing as "one itinerary fits all," and we're committed to matching your particular trip to your dreams. If none of our existing itineraries are perfect, we're thrilled to create a personalized trip just for you, your friends, and your family.
Our custom trips are not just standard "packages" adjusted to fit your travel dates - they're individually tailored itineraries, as unique as you are. We'll ask you lots of questions designed to help us understand your travel style, budget, interests, and wishes, and then we'll channel all our global connections, in-depth destination knowledge, and decades of travel planning experience into creating an extraordinary adventure filled with unforgettable experiences.
Here's how we will collaborate with you:
2. Talk with us about where you want to go, your timeframe, travel companions, budget, special interests and travel style.
3. We will send a brief sketch and approximate land cost for you to review and suggest changes you would like to see.
4. Based on your feedback, we will rework your itinerary according to your guidelines. Should you wish to talk with previous travelers who have asked us for customized itineraries, we are happy to give you references.
5. Review the new program. If it works, we will ask for a deposit: 25% of the cost usually, 50% if you are 120 days out. At that point, we will confirm all of the reservations and guides, send you a full packet of preliminary information and prepare your formal, personalized, detailed daily itinerary.
After all, it?s your unique vacation. Invite your family. Bring your friends. Dream big. Then call us and let us make your dream a reality.

BioWare has given the rundown on their strategy for monetizing gamers as much as humanly possible, and they strongly feel that day-one DLC is a perfectly solid and acceptable choice.
"Fans do want more content. From the moment the game launches. They tend to say 'I want it now!' So it needs to be there when it's ready," Fernando Melo, online development director for BioWare (pictured above), said at GDC Europe. "They choose when to pick it up, day one or later."
The launch of Mass Effect 3 included a day-one DLC pack available for download, it was titled From Ashes, and a player would only have access to all of the dialogue options offered from the DLC if they bought it as early as possible. In addition to this fact, the content included in the day-one DLC contained elements which were critical to the lore and the story.
"Gamers are actually happier, as they are able to spend money when they want," Melo asserted. "People may not want to pay upfront. They may be happier to pay when they are 'in the moment'."
Melo stated that BioWare is incredibly happy with the business model and plans to sell bits and pieces of their games in the future because they feel it's better for all parties involved.

Happy, Happy, Happy!
Just received this in Ivy and I am so very pleased! I was reluctant to order it because I hate the hassle of trying to return something, but I'm so glad that I took the chance on this one. It is a bit shorter than most of Chadwicks jackets, which was what I was looking for. (Does anyone still wear the longer ones???) And the cut is perfect. And for once, I do not need to worry about rolling up sleeves that are too long! Ordered my normal size and the fit is just right. Thank you, Chadwicks!
Bristol, VA
very versatile blazer
I ordered this blazer in the blue indigo. I'm tall (5'9"), so blazers often end up making me look boxy b/c they're not fitted right, even if I order tall sizes. This one is more on the side of being tailored/slim fitting, not really "easy fitting" like the item name implies (I like a more tailored fit, though, so I was fine with that). The material is a thick canvas type material. I get compliments on this blazer all the time. I purchased it in the summer and it's transitioned nicely into fall. The tortoise shell buttons give this blazer a more casual feel (as opposed to the more dressy gold buttons that tend to be on a lot of blazers). I wear this with jeans or khakis for a casual look, or with dress pants on days when I want to look dressier but not wear an actual suit. It's a really good value for the price. Well done, Chadwicks.

Wilmington, DE
The tan color as shown is really a dark khaki
The jacket has a versatile cut, sizing, and texture. I am giving it a 3 star because the "oxford tan" color as shown is a light tan. The "actual" color is a dark khaki. I would have kept this jacket to wear with jeans but I look awful in Khaki--so back it goes.
Muskogee, OK
Perfect Fall Jacket
I ordered the tall size in this jacket. It couldn't be more perfect. The sleeve length and overall fit are perfect. This jacket is perfect for the fall climate in my area. I'll be wearing it with jeans, turtleneck sweater, and riding boots. Love it.
sun city, ca
Nice Summer Jacket
I am pleased with this Easy Twill Blazer. True to size (note: slim fit, not "easy" in the sense of relaxed fit) and a nice weight for summer/fall. The sleeve length in tall is perfect. The color choices are great. I ordered the Ivy and I think it will go with many items in my wardrobe. This jacket has a cut that will go well with skirts, dresses and pants. My only criticism is that it arrives somewhat wrinkled (particularly the sleeves).
Syracuse, NY
Great Jacket
This jacket is has a nice fit and flattering cut. I ordered the olive in my normal size.
Awesome Casual Blazer
I purchased this awesome lined blazer in the Oxford Tan & Ivy....both are as pictured.Fits true to size....sleeve length is perfect! Love the style, fit & pricing.Back to get the Blue Indigo. I highly recommend this blazer!
New Jersey
Perfect Casual Blazer
I have this in Ivy and Blue and love love love the style, cut, and fit. It's perfect! Wish it came in black too. I am buying the white one next.
Dallas, TX
Love this Blazer!
This blazer is everything I hoped for. I wear a size 18 and am usually hard to fit. But this item fits in the shoulders, is not too long in the sleeve, is light weight enough for Florida AND is lined.I'm ordering every color right now.
Boca Raton, Florida
Did not like
Runs small, purchased size 12...just able to close button, need to upsize.Also, did not like style or quality.
New York City
I got this in the Oxford Tan, size 12. Really nice and slimming !!! Nice lining, true to size.
New York
A Must Have Blazer
I purchased this blazer in all three colors and I just love them, the look, the fit, the price and the colors, great for work and with jeans !!
Hagerstown, Maryland
Great blazer
I bought this blazer in ivy, as I needed to replace an old blazer in the same color. I was very pleasantly surprised at how nice this garment was. Classically cut, has some heft to it, but not too bulky, and I love the seaming. I went back and bought the other two colors, as well. If this blazer came in 6 more colors I would get all of them. I highly recommend this blazer.

FELs based on SASE are believed to be powerful tools to explore the frontiers of basic sciences, from physics to chemistry to biology. Intense R&D programs have started in the USA and Europe in order to understand the SASE physics and to prove the feasibility of these sources. The allocation of considerable resources in the Italian National Research Plan (PNR) brought about the formation of a CNR‐ENEA‐INFN‐University of Roma "Tor Vergata" study group. A conceptual design study has been developed and possible schemes for linac sources have been investigated, bringing to the SPARX proposal. We report in this paper the results of a preliminary start to end simulation concerning one option we are considering based on an S‐band normal conducting linac with high brightness photoinjector integrated in a RF compressor.
