Nico Rosberg kept it neat and tidy and avoided all pit stop woes as he raced to his maiden Formula One victory in the Chinese GP.
Starting from pole position, Rosberg pulled away from the chasing pack - led by his team-mate Michael Schumacher - and only relinquished the lead in the pit stops.
Despite concerns about Mercedes' tyre wear, Rosberg needed just two stops to win his first grand prix by 20.6s over Jenson Button, who fought his way back from a pit stop error. Button's McLaren mechanics struggled to attach his left rear in his final stop, costing the Brit dearly as he dropped well down the order.
Lewis Hamilton finished third ahead of the Red Bulls in a race that exploded into life in the last 11 laps.
Race Report
A typical Shanghai haze hung over the Shang circuit before the race start with temperatures at 22C ambient and 24C on the track. "Warm enough" said Jenson Button before the start, mindful that he'd had trouble getting his front tyres to work when it had been cooler. Jean-Eric Vergne had changed the bodywork of his Toro Rosso and so would start from the pitlane.
1.Rosberg, 2.Schumacher, 3.Kobayashi, 4.Raikkonen, 5.Button, 6.Webber, 7.Hamilton, 8.Perez, 9.Alonso, 10.Grosjean 11.Vettel, 12.Massa, 13.Maldonado 14.Senna, 15.Di Resta, 16.Hulkenberg, 17.Ricciardo, 18.Vergne, 19.Kovalainen 20.Petrov, 21.Glock, 22.Pic, 23.de la Rosa, 24.Karthikeayn
Nico Rosberg got an amazing start from P1 and sprinted into Turn 1 unchallenged. Behind him, Michael Schumacher was able to keep P2 without much trouble. It was the second row of Kobayashi and Raikkonen coming under pressure from the two fast-starting McLarens who suffered. Button worked his way past Raikkonen into P3 and Hamilton went wheel to wheel with Kobayashi who lost momentum and the place to both Hamilton and his team-mate Perez.
Further back Mark Webber got another bad start and lost places, but not as bad as team-mate Sebastian Vettel who was very slow away. "Normally I'm quick, but today I was very late" admitted Sebastian after the race. As a result he got stuck behind the Williams and even found himself duelling with one of the Caterhams.
Bruno Senna missed his braking into Turn 1 and lost parts of his front wing on the back of Felipe Massa's Ferrari (but didn't need it replaced), elsewhere there was contact in front as carbon fibre flew past Senna's onboard camera.
On the opening lap Mark Webber managed to get past Alonso and then Alonso retook him at the end of the lap.
Positions at the end of Lap One
1.Rosberg, 2.Schumacher, 3.Button 4.Raikkonen, 5. Hamilton, 6.Perez, 7.Kobayashi, 8.Alonso, 9.Webber, 10.Massa, 11.Grosjean, 12.Senna, 13.Di Resta, 14.Vettel
After the opening flurry of activity things settled down. Jenson Button had Kimi Raikkonen in the DRS tow and behind Kimi, Lewis Hamilton had Sergio Perez in the tow, but nobody was making a move. Everyone was wary of pushing too early in a race where tyre management would be critical.
Mark Webber pitted for new tyres at the end of Lap 6 and rejoined the race in P20. At the front, Nico Rosberg was steadily going away from Michael Schumacher and by Lap 7 had a 3.5 second gap. Michael Schumacher now had a train of Button, Raikkonen, Hamilton, Perez and Kobayashi.
This all changed on Lap 9 when other teams started to pit (with Mark Webber quickly reducing the fastest lap behind them all). Kobayashi and Vettel came in on Lap 9; Raikkonen and Hamilton on Lap 10; Button on Lap 11; and Schumacher, Alonso and Senna on Lap 12.
Hamilton and Raikkonen exited the pitlane side by side, the Lotus being released straight into the path of the Mclaren and running side by side down the pitlane till Kimi ran out of room at the end. They rejoined the track right by Mark Webber and though Lewis Hamilton was able to get past the Red Bull, Kimi could not, trying very hard at Turn 6 where Mark closed the door on an outside move from the Finn.
Rosberg was able to keep his pace the longest and while he was pitting on Lap 13 eyes turned to Michael Schumacher who'd just lost a place to Jenson Button in the pitstops. There had been consternation in the Mercedes pit directly after Schumi had been released from his pitbox and later in the lap he had to park the car with a loose wheel. (The FIA would investigate for an unsafe release).
With Rosberg pitting, this left Sergio Perez in the lead from Felipe Massa who'd started on the harder tyre.
Positions on Lap 14: 1.Perez (not stopped), 2.Massa (not stopped), 3.Rosberg, 4.Button, 5.Hamilton, 6.Webber, 7.Raikkonen, 8.Alonso, 9.Kobayashi, 10.Grosjean, 11.Vettel, 12.Senna, 13.Ricciardo, 14.DiResta.
When Perez finally pitted on Lap 16 he exited just in front of Sebastian Vettel in P10, while Massa would fall to P14 when he came in at the end of Lap 18.
On Lap 19 Rosberg led from Button and all the pre-race predictions, that the Mercedes would eat up its tyres were not coming true. The reverse was the case with the W03 able to run longest on the soft compound Option.
The gaps on Lap 20 were: Rosberg 4.7 to Button 2.1 to Hamilton 3.4 to Webber 0.6 to Raikkonen 0.5 to Alonso. But just as we got a settled running order established Mark Webber kicked off the second round of pit-stops by coming in at the end of Lap 21. With the Aussie just three seconds behind the McLaren of Lewis Hamilton, the team reacted by bringing Lewis in for his second stop - and a lap after that Jenson Button.
Button was released behind Vettel and Perez, but Hamilton was re-inserted behind Felipe Massa, and because Massa had relatively new rubber, proved difficult to overtake. Hamilton finally took him with a hestitant pass at Turn 6 on Lap 26 and a lap later Webber was past as well at the same turn
Meanwhile Button using his DRS and younger tyres was able to get past Perez and then Vettel and by Lap 31 it was looking promising for the Brit. He was putting in 1:41s while Rosberg ahead could only manage 1.43s. On Lap 32 Button showed his intent by putting in the fastest lap of the race so far with a 1:40.908
Positions on Lap 33: 1.Rosberg (one stop), 2.Button, 3.Perez (one stop) 4.Hamilton, 5.Webber, 6.Alonso, 7.Massa (one stop), 8.Raikkonen 9.Kobayashi, 10.Maldonado, 11.Vettel, 12.Grosjean
Now Hamilton found himself stuck behind Sergio Perez, the Sauber having great top speed down the long back straight and enabling him to defend in the one place Hamilton would hope to get past using DRS. Perez locked his front tyres on several occasions and the delay allowed Mark Webber to close up and even try an unlikely move round the outside of Lewis Hamilton into Turn 6 on Lap 34. Raikkonen had failed to get past Webber there and Webber failed to make it stick as well.
Webber pitted for tyres, Hamilton soldiered on behind Perez and Alonso took advantage by closing right up to the back of Lewis Hamilton until Perez finally pitted on Lap 35 (to rejoin in P13). This finally allowed the McLaren to charge off in pursuit of his team-mate.
Mark Webber's interesting afternoon got even more spectacular when he launched his Red Bull RB8 off the kerbs at Turn 13 and the car was temporarily airborne. Webber survived the moment and carried on regardless. He was anxious to keep in touch with the Hamilton vs Alonso battle, having stopped earlier than the pair of them. They both duly stopped on Lap 38 and McLaren showed that they are up with the speed of the Ferrari pitstops by keeping Hamilton in front. They were both able to keep their position in front of Perez.
A lap later and Jenson Button came in for a stop that would rob him of any chance of victory. With Rosberg stopping on Lap 34 (for his second of what would be two stops) Button was now in front on the road. But problems with the left rear tyre delayed Jenson a precious extra six seconds and instead of leaving the pits behind Rosberg and in clear air, he was stuck behind Vettel who was stuck behind Raikkonen. They were both going to run out of tyres sooner or later, but JB was held.
Positions on Lap 42: 1.Rosberg 2.Raikkonen, 3.Vettel, 4.Button (3 stops), 5.Grosjean, 6.Webber (3 stops), 7.Senna 8.Hamilton (3 stops), 9.Maldonado, 10.Alonso (3 stops). 11.Perez
On Lap 43 Fernando Alonso shaped up to overtake Pastor Maldonado, ran wide onto the marbles and off the track losing a place to Perez in the process. At this stage, the circuit looked to have an avenue of the racing line surrounded by tyre marbles and any driver venturing off them had to be pretty certain it was worth the excursion.
By this point in the race Rosberg had a 23 second cushion to Kimi Raikkonen who was holding up a train of cars from his position on ailing tyres in P2. Such was the fear of the marbles that he had gathered seven cars behind all keen not to get it wrong and lose loads of places to the cars behind.
On lap 45 it all kicked off with Grosjean running wide and losing places. As he fought to regain his position he ran side by side with the Williams of Maldonado through Turn 12 and 13 and there was contact between the cars. Grosjean managed to keep in front down the back straight as Maldonado tried to get past the Lotus and Perez - using the Sauber's great top speed - tried to get past the Williams. Maldonado managed to outbreak both Perez and Grosjean, take the inside line at the hairpin and seemingly make the overtake on Grosjean. Grosjean used the wide line around the turn to cut back inside and re-take Maldonado before the final turn. It was great driving.
A lap later and Alonso was past Perez and on Lap 47 Raikkonen led an incredible train of 12 cars. Positions on Lap 47: 1.Rosberg 2.Raikkonen, 3.Vettel, 4.Button, 5.Webber, 6.Hamilton 7.Senna 8.Grosjean 9.Maldonado, 10.Alonso 11.Perez, 12.Kobayashi, 13.DiResta. - and there was 10 seconds between Kimi Raikkonen in second and Paul DiResta in thirteenth!
Lap 48 saw the most dramatic change of fortunes with Kimi Raikkonen finally overtaken by Vettel and being caught up in successive overtakes as he dropped from 2nd place to finish the lap behind Vettel, Button,Hamilton and Webber. As the chequered flag approached drivers decided to make their moves and Laps 48 to 51 saw the order thoroughly shaken up. Hamilton got by Webber when he went off-track in his attempts to get past Raikkonen too quickly.
Kimi's tyres had fallen off the cliff and he ended up in P12 at the end of Lap 49 - mugged by everyone. Button passed Vettel going into the hairpin and then Hamilton began to shadow Vettel with Webber right in his mirrors.
Further back Sergio Perez even forced his own team-mate onto the grass going into the braking zone of the hairpin, but Kobayashi managed to keep control of his car and got the car braked to make the overtaking move. Perez then fell back and on Lap 54 the timing screens showed that Maldonado, Alonso and Kobayashi crossed the line together - separated by 0.00 of a second and going into Turn 1 three abreast. Maldonado held out from Alonso and Kobayashi.
A lap later and Hamilton outbraked Vettel into the hairpin and the World Champ almost got him back going into the final corner - causing Hamilton to do some creative car positioning on the following straight. Mark Webber tried to come past, too, but was able to pass his team-mate on the penultimate lap as Vettel's tyres gave up. (A geat move round the utside of the hairpin)
Up ahead of this mayhem Nico Rosberg had a serene 20-second advantage and was able to bring the car home for an un-pressured debut win. Button was second but thought he could have made the winner work a lot harder. Hamilton finished third in front of Webber, Vettel in fifth, an excellent sixth place from a recovering Grosjean. Bruno Senna had far less dramas than his team-mate to take seventh place whereas the onboard camera of Maldonado saw a tremendous amount of action.
It had been a spectacular grand prix and unlike most, had exploded into life in the last 10 laps. Mercedes were unused to the idea of celebrating or finding their way to the podium, but given that Rosberg has proved that he can keep his Pirellis intact - it won't be his last visit this season.

Ok .. since we are having an open day on politics at the moment how about this one.
We all know schools sometimes need to hold money back for projects. Sometimes this is new buildings, sometimes this is because they can see a shortfall of funds coming in due to dropping numbers in a particular year.
An example given to me earlier was a school getting funding for a new building / block but having nothing left to furnish it with. The money put to one side (earning interest for the school) gets used to pay for this.
Well ... the idea is that in the future is that there is some clawback into the system ... not just of unclaimed or unused revenue ... but of everything!
This will punish those schools who are carefully managing their budgets and almost give a free rein to those who overspend.
From a sustainability point of view this removes funding and some control of funding from a school. Not a good idea.

ALBANY, N.Y. -- More than one hundred local firefighters from departments all over the Capital Region lined up Wednesday morning, dressed in uniform, with black stripes over their badges, to pay tribute to two fallen firefighters in Boston.
Bob Powers, a member of the Albany Permanent Professional Firefighters Association President, said, "We're all part of a brotherhood, and we all feel the same thing."
Especially when it comes to tragedy.
"We've had a tragedy out in Boston, we're going to support our brothers out in Boston," said Powers.
Last week a nine-alarm fire injured 13 firefighters, and claimed the lives of two. Our local heroes will pay their respects to 43-year-old Lieutenant Edward Walsh Jr. at his funeral, and to 33-year-old Michael Kennedy at his wake.
"It's really a tribute to the person and to the department when other departments show up for the funeral or the wake," said Albany Fire Chief Warren Abriel Jr.
That same tribute and support is something Abriel is proud his men are a part of.
"It meant a lot to myself and to the family," said Chief Abriel.
The last time the Boston Fire Department came to Albany was in 2007 to mourn the loss of the Abriel's brother, and fellow firefighter, Ted Abriel.
Abriel said, "It's a very difficult time I know for the Boston Fire fighters, it was for us when Ted died. There are many many things that go through a firefighter's mind."
"We all face the same risks, we all do the same job," said Powers.
It's a dangerous job, that keeps the rest of us safe. Firefighters that weren't able to attend Wednesday's services have the opportunity to go to Boston on Thursday for the final burial of firefighter Michael Kennedy.

I really like these shoes. I bought these just before I went on a cruise and wore them a lot and did not have any problems. Really like the look of these shoes also. May 28, 2014
Great Find Great price and very stylish looking. Great to for everyday wear. July 24, 2013
Shoes may have been great if they fit - Returned shoes size 10 too small 11 too big - need a 10.5 and i think they would have fit great. July 15, 2013
Nice shoe These shoes are cute and comfortable. The fit is not too narrow and not too wide. June 20, 2013
comfortable sandal, but needs a better look for that cost The sandal is comfortable, arrived timely and packaging is good. I am not very happy with the look of the sandal. The top needs to have better finish for the cost. The stores need a better inventory. There are lot more patterns online, but just a few in the stores. The brand also needs more variety in sandals (slip-on sandals) like this. June 5, 2013
Very comfortable sandal! This multi-colored sandal is one of the most comfortable pair of sandals I have ever bought! As soon as I put them on, they felt very comfortable and after wearing them all day - no blisters, soreness or tightness! June 2, 2013
Comfy and stylish These are very comfy and the heel is a perfect height for me. The toe area could be improved in the sense that it is oddly shaped. May 31, 2013
Nice multi brown/red colors Was debating if would keep, but color & comfort won out yet again with Clarks. May 28, 2013
Really cute sandal! Sandal is really cute and comfortable. True to size. I get painful arches but I find the Clark sandals do not hurt my feet. These sandals have that extra touch to dress it up a bit, rather than just plain brown. I love Clark shoes! May 23, 2013

WASHINGTON - The temperature at Dulles International Airport outside Washington has fallen below freezing for the first time this season.
The Washington Post ( http://wapo.st/Ru3YOp) reports that the temperature at Dulles fell to 30 degrees Saturday at 6:33 a.m.
The National Weather Service says that equals a record for Oct. 13 set in 1988. The normal low temperature for the date is 15 degrees higher.

The Need for Graduate Education in
Computational Engineering in the U.S.
Computers are becoming critically important as a tool for engineering analysis and design, especially in the areas of engineering science related to field physics such as solid and fluid mechanics, electromagnetics, and acoustics. Numerical solution of the systems of governing equations associated with field physics has not been feasible for practical engineering geometries until recently. As computer hardware and solution algorithms have advanced in capability, it has become increasingly common to solve complex systems of equations governing field phenomena, including systems of multidimensional partial differential equations. This evolution is transforming the practice of engineering by introducing a computational paradigm for analysis and design that is now on a par with experimental and classical analytical approaches.
These developments raise certain issues pertinent to engineering education. For example, the problem-solving software and methodology have become very sophisticated, and interdisciplinary skills are now important in its application. Lack of knowledge of basic concepts and/or appreciation for the computational procedures behind software tools can present obstacles to effective use of the software and has even caused serious mistakes in design and analysis. The UTC Computational Engineering M.S. and Ph.D. programs will give students a cross-disciplinary perspective to the physical and computational concepts and techniques involved in solving field-related engineering problems and will prepare them for encounters with this category of problem-solving software.
The educational program must focus on developing high levels of expertise in the computational methodology used to solve real-world problems. The necessary background is provided by a unifying cross-disciplinary perspective of the physics, geometry, mathematics, solution algorithms, visualization techniques, and computing systems used for field simulation.

Why do I need a scan in my third trimester?The most common reason for a scan in the third trimester is to check that your baby is growing normally. You will be given what is known as a growth scan or a scan for fetal well being between your 32nd and 36th week. But your doctor could ask for additional scans if:
- Your baby isn't moving as well or as often as he should be
- Your baby is in the breech position
- You are carrying twins or more
- The umbilical chord was seen to be around your baby's neck in an earlier scan
- the amount of amniotic fluid is more or less than it should be
- your baby feels smaller than expected for her gestational age
If you have had complications in previous pregnancies or suffer from a medical condition, such as diabetes or high blood pressure, you will probably be offered scans at regular intervals throughout your pregnancy.
What can third trimester scans detect?The growth scan done between your 32nd and 36th week will look at the following:
- Your baby's wellbeing: Your baby's general wellbeing is measured by his biophysical profile. A healthy baby stretches and flexes, moves its arms and legs frequently, opens and closes its hands, moves its fingers and toes, lips and tongue. It also makes breathing movements. The sonographer will observe your baby doing all these things on the scan and will rate your baby on a total score of 8. A high number means that your baby is doing well. A lower score could be a sign that your baby isn't getting enough oxygen from the placenta. It does not necessarily mean that there is a problem however, your baby might just be fast asleep when the scan is done. Your doctor will probably ask you to come in for another scan to confirm if there is a problem.
- Your baby's head (HC) and abdomen (AC) circumference: A baby with an average HC but a large AC has a fat tummy! It may just be well fed but it can sometimes indicate diabetes in the mother, especially if the amniotic fluid is increased. Your blood sugar levels will be checked, as gestational diabetes does sometimes develop in the third trimester (and usually goes again after the baby is born). High levels of sugar in your blood mean that the baby is also getting more sugar, so you will be given dietary advice to bring the levels down.
A baby with an average head size and a small tummy may just be a small healthy baby. Sometimes though, this pattern can indicate that your baby is not growing properly especially if the amniotic fluid is less than it should be. This is a condition known as intra-uterine growth restriction (IUGR). If this is suspected, a Doppler scan may be performed.
- the position of the placenta: If your placenta was low at your 20-week scan, there are good chances that it will have moved up out of the way of the cervix by now. In some rare cases however, the placenta does not move up. A placenta that is too close to the cervix is known as placenta praevia. If you are diagnosed with placenta praevia, you will need to have a caesarean section.
A baby's face in the third trimesterOther scans in your third trimester will be done to:
- Monitor twin pregnancies:If you are expecting twins or more, you will have third trimester scans to check that your babies are growing normally. Sometimes the growth of one twin may slow down; if this happens, your babies may be delivered a little early.
- Check the position of your baby: Babies move around and change position frequently throughout pregnancy. The position doesn't matter at all up until about 37 weeks. If your doctor thinks your baby is in the breech position (head up, bottom down) at this stage, you may have a scan to confirm this. Most breech babies are delivered by caesarean. Some breech positions though make it possible to have a vaginal delivery so a scan will help you and your doctor decide what delivery is possible.
What can't a scan in the third trimester reveal?
- Whether your dates are right: After 20 weeks, babies become more individual in size and shape. If your baby is smaller or bigger than average at, say 34 weeks, it doesn't mean it is younger or older. Your due date needs to be established by 20 weeks.
- Where bleeding is coming from: Bleeding is common in the third trimester and may be coming from the cervix or further inside the womb. A scan can reassure you that your baby is not affected by the bleed but the scan can rarely see the cause of it.
- How much your baby weighs: The bigger the baby and the nearer he gets to term, the harder it becomes to assess his weight. Your baby's head may be too low in your pelvis in late pregnancy to get a measurement. And even if it's possible to measure his abdomen, it's impossible to take other factors into account, such as how long he is.

I find it suspicious ... this uptick in violent shootings just after the first of the year.
As someone born and raised in the northeast, I have always been suspicious of the South in general as not having overcome its bigoted roots, even though I'm sure it has improved greatly since the 60's and prior. I've spent some time on travel recently in El Paso and nearby Las Cruces (NM) and didn't notice extreme behavior like you experienced, but I did find to my dismay that Fox News seems to be the "official" television station most places you go.
I suspect a big part of your issue on this trip was the Prius, not just because it can be seen as a "liberal's car" but also because it's probably the most prominent symbol of being a California-style Japanese import loyalist. I'm not saying this with any judgement and I believe we all should have the right to make our own buying choices; harassment like you experienced is just plain wrong and a car is just a car. But we are seeing this trend in American where outright bullies are becoming political heroes, and this doesn't seem like the best time to paint a target on your own back. Texas ain't California.
May I humbly suggest you look seriously at the Chevrolet Volt to replace your Prius? I just got one on 12/18/10 and it's fantastic. Most of the time I can drive using no gas at all (from plugging it in) and yet I'm also able to go any distance I need using gasoline once the all-electric range is depleted; it's an all electric commuter that also can be driven across the country like any other car, quite brilliant really. It all works beautifully and seamlessly, the sense of quality is tremendous (trust me, it drives better and feels more substantial than the Prius), and it's designed and built right here in the USA. Texas is even one of the first markets, so it's my understanding that pretty soon each participating dealer down there should have one test drive model, after the initial wave of retail deliveries have been made. You yourself have made statements justifiably critical toward the Japanese (e.g. wrt dolphins and whales), so personally I see no reason to vote economically in their favor when now there is a better alternative.
Overall, I fully agree that the shrill level of rhetoric to which this country has risen (or sunk) in recent years is becoming frightening, particularly from the right but that may just be my bias. I hope the AZ shooting tragedy helps to moderate this trend, but I also think that may be optimistic given recent momentum.
Happy New Year to All!
I have lived most of my entire life in the South, mostly New orleans & Mississippi with some Florida visits. My Dad was in the USAF for 30+ years, so whenever we returned home from a lengthy overseas assignment we spent summers visiting before off to the next base.
The South has 2 vibes & 2 cultures, and the following is a general observation:
Recently, the NASCAR DAD- Rush Limbaugh working class has become huge. It is all driven by the talking heads on the radio and the undercurrent of demonizing the Hispanic & the The black man. All Yankees are liberals & so PC they just don't get it. And some of the fear is driven by the multitudes of poor ghetto blacks & white trash element, that just can't phantom nor have ever seen a black surgeon or spanish businessman. The opportunities are just not there. Part of the reason I moved to the Northeast is the availability of night schools and infinite college choices IF one has the gumption and money to attend. It's hard to drive 300 miles or so to attend say, USM to get a masters for 3 times a week while you are working...the on line classes may have changed this, but I digress..
The area has always been poor ; and still- even after 150 years has a complex about the outcome of the civil war. I am shocked by statements made by my father & his friends and my friends and my brother too. The Far right disinformation, coupled with this recession, add in the fact that most of our volunteer army are from the south, were opportunities or monies are just not there.
So do like I did... when we chartered a sailboat in teh BUSH years we sailed under a Canadian Flag, when I drive South, even as a southerner, do not have any left leaning bumper stickers or consumer choices!
As for Texas, well the Krewe I ran with way back in the 80's always said:
Florida & Texas are Police States and they will bury under the jailhouse for any infraction.
The comments here seem to misunderstand the point.
The point is not that there's something inherently wrong with Texas -- Texas people being "different". Strieber's a native Texan and is going home. He's not an outsider from Massachusetts with a bunch of preconceived notions about Texas. He didn't experience a self-fulfilled prophecy.
Despite all the predictions about "police state" this and "fascism" that with the Patriot Act and all the government abuse since 9/11, the point most often forgotten when comparing the U.S. with Nazi Germany is this: the specter of an external threat was only the first step in the conversion of the German people into a bunch of villains. The second step -- more important -- was the economic disorder that made them feel their lives were at stake and imminently under threat (starvation) and caused them to slip into savagery.
The U.S. between 2001 and 2010 has suffered the annoyance of the first step. The constant agent provocateuring and the terrorism hoax laid the groundwork. Now the economic implosion, due mainly to fraud and greed, is making people feel that animal itch that they are under direct physical threat in a way terrorism never would by itself. And now we'll see real fascism in practice -- with a willing public leading the way.
I live in the Austin, Texas area. No one here gives a second look at a Prius or a California license plate. Our motto is "Keep Austin Weird", and it must be true because we are also the state capital. :-) Our lege will soon be in session, and a whole host of draconian bills have already been filed and are ready for debate once the wacko legislators are back in town. If you ever want real insight into the Texas mentality, watch a great little film called "Lone Star." It is who we are.
That being said,I also spent over ten years in California, which my very conservative dad referred to as "The Land of Fruits and Nuts." I was never comfortable in California, but I saw much in the people there that I admired. At the same time, I was often picked on in school for being a "bigoted" Texan, and also blamed for the death of John Kennedy (Not kidding). I once heard my very liberal social studies teacher go through yet one more long speech about how predjudice people were in the South. I raised my hand and asked her, in front of the whole class, "Mrs. Lewis, why are YOU so predjudice against all people from the South? That pretty much shut her up for rest of the year, and gained me a little respect from my fellow classmates as well.
I too am middle of the road in my viewpoints, and have never been comfortable anywhere in regards to my political beliefs. It has not exactly been a curse, but it has not been easy either, and it never will be.
And so it goes..
I live in El Paso and it is defintely not what you describe, in spite of its many other problems, not least of which is being next door to Mexico. Nor have I encountered what you describe in West Texas and it is distrubing to me that you did experience this. The only obvious speed trap I have encountered is in Brownsville on the road to South Padre Island, and the rental car companies there post warnings about it for their customers, so it's not aimed at anyone in particular.
IMHO, the San Antonio drivers are nuts, as rude as Boston drivers on the Mass Turnpike!
People seem to have a hard time understanding that with tolerance, it's always a matter of how far does one extend that tolerance to. Everyone is tolerant, kind, loving, liking of those just like them, it's a question of how does one treat those not like them?
So to people that might say, I've lived in the South or been there, and people there are nice.. I ask do you look Middle Eastern?, are you Black, are you Latino? are you gay? have you ever driven down there in a Prius with CA license plates?.. and have you been to other parts of the country to know contrast? ..if so, ok then I'll take in your point.
I lived for 24 yrs in the Minneapolis area, I then moved to Orlando for a summer (in 07') and in that span of 3 months on the streets I had on 4 separate occasions, unprovoked, strangers yelling homophobic comments at me. The whole 24 yrs in Minneapolis not a once did that happen. Not even gay, just have kind of long hair and dress a little different. On separate occasion down there, a stranger kicking a soccer ball in a park by himself, unprovoked, tried to kick the ball at my upper torso or head as hard as he could.
Freedom takes a lot more than being written down in state document to exist, it is a lot larger than that, it takes proactivity. It takes a whole people genuinely valuing it, and as such, everyone on an individual level extending tolerance , which freedom precariously resides upon, for it to be sustained or even credibly thought to really exist.
For example believe it or not, freedom of religion being written down on a document somewhere means little to a Muslim when he is being constantly harassed and accosted by strangers. Freedom which seems to construct the underlying basis of the idea of "America" will never be destroyed by some Islamic terrorist or outside threat, it'll only be destroyed and taken away by our own hand, through an insidious rise of intolerance for freedom of the individual.
Texas is now the most Red state in the union, which means full blown sociopaths are in charge of the state government. Their statements and actions filter down to the local level, which is why you and your wife found your visit ruined. Here is an article from today's Houston Chronicle about Texas today:
Cosmic Libraian-
Austin is the only place I would consider living in Tejas, just as only progressive cities and coastal areas are mostly tolerant in Dixie. We are talking broad strokes of the population--not niched out sub cultures. For every 10 REM fans in Athens Georgia there are 100+ David Allen Coe fans.
'Tis a question of proportion & %...and this is from a born & bred straight white Bohemain Southerner. One thng I don't miss is the dominant "BUBBA" culture of the South. Guess what? I don't like south eastern confrenece football nor char grilled meats...and I vote Democratic (lesser of 2 evils) I guess I am a faggot.
Poor people and their hate. :(
California has always had a reputation of being a place filled with very liberal and strange people. I am a native Californian and was always interested in the way I was received in other states whenever I was driving a car with California plates. In 2005, I drove my family back to Wounded Knee South Dakota. On my return trip, I was stopped by a Wyoming State Police officer for allegedly speeding, though the cruse control of my Honda Odyssey was set on 63 miles per hour and I was driving slower than the trucks. The speed limit there was 75 and trucks travel below that because their gearing is designed for slower speeds. I used to be a police officer in Colorado and was not cited, but as a law enforcement officer, I understand that radar is only needed to verify what we already know: that the person is speeding. We become good judges of speed, so it should have been clear to him that I was not traveling 87 miles per hour as he claimed, but the low sixties. I suspected at the time that I was stopped because of the California plates. After stopping by the Little Bighorn Battlefield, we spent the night in Billings Montana. There, we met another Californian who was working for the federal government and related that he was constantly harassed by the local police when he first moved to Montana. When he got Montana plates, the harassment stopped. I still take road trips to see family members in Oregon and Washington, but with the current political climate, I don't venture very far east, even though I am a Republican in good standing, and live in the agricultural heart of California where many of us vote Republican.
Just for the record: I was born in Texas, have been a registered non-partisan voter since I was 18 years old, and I also live in one of the most conservative counties in the state. I don't drink beer, I do not own a gun or a pickup truck, and I am not very fond of football either.
Somehow, they are allowing me to live anyway...Maybe it's because I really do love mesquite-grilled barbecue. :-)

The truth is, racists exist in every state in this country. I grew up in the South, but I've spent considerable time traveling and living in several cities throughout the nation. Some Southern people are racist. But there's also quite a lot of people I've met who will give you the shirt off your back, regardless of where you're from or what color your skin. Northerners like to think they aren't racist, so they just keep their jokes a little quieter. Even on the West coast, I noticed maybe a different style of bigotry, but hatred toward people who are "different," nonetheless. I assume it's probably like this throughout the rest of the world, based on what I've seen.
I think what it comes down to is you either choose to love unconditionally, or you give in to fear and let it twist your actions.
Many Times I go "native" and embrace my inner carnivore around dry rubbed Memphis styled ribs, so don't feel 'rained on'. I guess, being rasied in NOLA that my preference is seafood: Crawfish Monica, Etufay, Oysters, Blackened Redfish. I guess I am a Fish-a-terian!
I love the southern folks & ways, but the South has aquired a whole new vibe for the past decade, that makes me fly under the radar when I visit home.
Sorry to hear all of that. I am from Lubbock and currently live in Dallas. It is sad. I can remember going into Mexico all the time when I was younger and now it is so lawless. One of my favorite places is Big Bend, but I probably want even take my son there when he gets older. I will still take my chances in Marfa though.
I am a tree hugging Republican who carries a gun in S. TX.
I live in California and make that same drive several times a year. I try not to interact with anyone on the road, because you never know what's in someone's head. I've studied Kung Fu for almost 40 years, and one thing I've learned is the importance of keeping a low profile. Your probably better off driving a Prius, than a BMW, though I have seen a few Ferrari's out in the boondocks. It's not good to look like you have a lot of money on you. People in Texas and New Mexico usually will nod and say high when I am stopped for gas, but I have found it good policy never to get into anything deeper than the weather. One thing that's almost a given is that almost everyone on the road is armed to the teeth.
I have become more and more concerned about the accelerating drug violence in the El Paso and southern Arizona. People are also really hurting because of the economy, the are armed and desperate.
I have family in Law enforcement, so recently I've started going through Albuquerque, then going through Amarillo, Dallas.

The internet is kind of a geek dream come true — it's a place for fandoms to find their people and connect online over the things they are so passionate about. No one understands this better than Felicia Day, actress, founder of Geek & Sundry — a website dedicated to nerd culture — and herself a superfan of many elements of geek culture. One of her first projects was a web series called The Guild, which was essentially a love letter to online gaming. Her site is hosting today's GeekWeek on YouTube "Fan Friday" — a theme Day feels particularly embodies geekdom.
"It's focused on fans' contribution to things that they geek out over," Day told EW. "Everything I've done has been from a very grassroots place so I felt like this was the perfect way for us to participate, to highlight communities rather than the people who make the things that people fan-out over."
Geek & Sundry has spent the week releasing special-edition videos of their regular shows, like a supersize episode of Co-Optitude, in which Day plays Pokemon Snap with her brother. There is also a "nerd trifecta," as Day put it, featuring Wil Wheaton and Seth Green playing a tabletop Star Wars game. There are brand-new vloggers featured on the site's vlog channel — with everything from TV and movie reviews to impressions to makeup tips — all geared toward gaming, comics, and other geek culture. Today, tune in for Gastro Geeks, Day's pet project.
"It's a parody food show competition, where contestants get a mysterious bucket of ingredients to sculpt into geeky objects around a surprise theme. We have three contestants — myself, Hannah Hart (of My Drunk Kitchen) and Furious Pete (a professional eater)."
So why Fan Friday?

Best Medium-Length Hairstyles for Every Age
While daring cropped cuts and waist-length waves are absolutely not for everyone, theres a medium-length hairstyle to fit every age and style. Here, experts offer tips to score that perfect medium-length look.
By Kristyn Lyncheski
Claire Danes
Update a retro look into a renewed 'do. "Dane's hairstyle is a fresh, modern Farrah style. It's fun, flirty, and dressed up!" says Rhys. Prep hair with a gel for shine and control like Bumble and Bumble Gel ($26, amazon.com), then blow dry with a small round brush to achieve Danes' bounce. "Once hair is dry, take a 3-inch section on each side of the face and use a 1.5-inch curling iron to curl hair back off the face for a vintage vibe," she says.

Aug 27 - Jack Henry & Associates Inc. (Nasdaq:JKHY) is a provider of technology solutions and payment processing services primarily for the financial services industry. Its JHA Payment Processing Solutions division has announced the launch of an expedited EMV implementation process for U.S. chip card issuance.
Some chip card implementations may require direct project involvement by card brands. To get in front of any significant scheduling bottlenecks, partners like PPS can now manage installs for Visa issuers. For qualifying processor clients, Visa provides a streamlined EMV implementation path for select chip card profiles. PPS is the first processor to make such a program available to its financial institution clients.
According to John Postle, general manager of PPS, Everyones eyes are on EMV right now and it is only a matter of when for U.S. financial institutions that have yet to adopt the cards. We are very excited to introduce a plan for EMV deployment that will mean greater efficiency and ease for our clients.
Through the expedited process, PPS can reduce financial institutions implementation costs, testing requirements, and overall timeframes. PPS process for certain chip card profiles can be as simple as for non-chip products; no host-to-host testing is necessary and card validation is optional.
To qualify for the streamlined process, a processor must have successfully completed a prior U.S. chip issuance project with Visa as well as meet other eligibility requirements. PPS enables banks and credit unions to consolidate card processing services with a single point of contact for settlements, adjustments, and reconciliations.

PORT ARANSAS - The Station Street pier in Port Aransas is now off-limits due to damage from a loaded ferry that slammed into the structure. We're told the ferry was about to dock on the Port Aransas side of the crossing when one engine lost power.
The operator tried to compensate and make it across, but the second engine then lost power. Another ferry operator then attempted to use his vessel to keep the drifting ferry from hitting the pier.
There were 25 passengers in 12 cars on the vessel at the time of the crash. No one was injured.
The Coast Guard is handling the investigation.

"Rarely do great beauty and great virtue dwell together – Francesco Petrarch"
Beauties and Blondes
Came across this quote in my last years diary and it got me thinking #Ihatesomequotes honestly, why would someone say that. I know some people would highly support that statement but maybe because they aren't beautiful..PERIOD! so as a way to get back to the beautiful ones, they use that.
That beauties are blondies. Well, blondies are just blondies they shouldn't be associated with beauty. Just like you don't say a handsome man is not intellectual. well quote and quote some are damn but i dint say that.
I can attest to the fact that many beautiful girls are very brilliant and intellectual, I won't blow my own trumpet, so I will say my friends. Like in my circle of friends, I don't choose who my girls are but I can say they are all beautiful and brilliant.. oh well, birds of a feather flock together.
What makes a guy think a girl/lady/woman (whichever fits your preference), is a blond or better yet not intellectual, even without having to measure your IQ – which i think is plain right lame; In my analysis,
Is it the way someone talks? like if you have that american accent, even before you have made sense out of a sentence, some one will have already concluded you don't know what you are saying.
The way you reason? If someone asks a question – That they already know the answer..verry irritating by the way – then waits for you to answer, and probably how you understood the question is abit different from how they perceived it as, then you answer something completely different, they just conclude that this right here is a blondie.
The way you dress? Some people judge you from the way you dress. Funny enough the very well dressed girls could sometimes be mistaken as blondes even before they say anything. You know, just from the look of things, which I think is #NotSoCool
The way you handle your things? you would find that some girls are sensitive and like attention , want to be loved ..this is the love side of which no one is brilliant, and i mean no one even the most perfect couple that you can think of. Someone could do the most stupid and blondiest of things in the name of love.. this is why we classify it as a #MajorFail
Beauties and Brains,
Now this I can proudly say that I know many of this ones… funny enough at one point we've done quite a number of blonde things, answered questions in some blonde mannerisms but brain-wise we on the grind.
"All I would say is never judge anyone, you never know where they are coming from or where they are going. Treat everyone like you would want to be treated. Because what you are thinking of them is probably what they are thinking of you I.e. "You think am blonde, I think your worse..lol" "
Beauties and Virtues
Why would anyone think that beauties don't have virtues… or the ones that have are very rare…tsk! After all the Ethics classes we went through in campus…lol again that statement just sucks! 3/4 of the ladies I know lead a virtuous life, and am speaking from the experience of being with them, interacting with them, being one of them..hehe, beauty and virtue shouldn't be compared it's the heart, the inner self that should be compared to virtue.
Actually Beauty is even on the eyes of the beholder…like its relative term thats subjective to each and every individual…as sometimes people would even say "beauty is in the eyes of the beer-holder"..lol
Ok…this part, i stole (talk of plagiarizing someone elses work)…so let me just reference it before am sued … lol

Product Experts Available Now!
Today on this 2008 Toyota RAV4 we are going to install part number 118412 from Tow Ready. The first thing we need to do is get inside the back of the vehicle and start taking apart the interior components. To get access to our wiring connection points we will actually be behind the tail lights. To get behind the paneling we are going to start in the middle. We are going to have to pull off this cover, we are going to take out this part. The next thing we have to do is take out these two side panels right here, one on each side. We are going to take off this threshold. It may require you to have a trim panel tool to help pop up the rivets. Next we are going to take out two access panels. There is one on each side to make the panel a little bit more flexible. 00:43
The next thing we are going to do is remove some fasteners for this panel right here. We are going to remove this tie down point and this screw right here and the bolt that is sunk in all the way in there. Hopefully we will get enough room where we can sneak the wiring underneath. We just need that much room right there. We are going to do the same procedure back over on the driver side. We are going to start working on our connection points for electrical. What we are going to do is reach inside this area right here and then we are going to go up to the tail light itself. Feel for the tail light and look and feel for the connection point that goes into the tail light and disconnect the back. At the very top you will feel for a button and push down on it and it will pop the wire harness off. 01:24
We are going to take our T-One connector and pull off the white wire a little bit from the ground. We are going to take this end and we are going to plug that into the back of the tail light. We will take the two remaining ends and just push those together. Now lets go work on our ground. Inside here is a body bolt that we can use as a ground. It is clean and it is galvanized so we should do pretty good. Just pull back the ground wire a little bit more. We can hide it like this behind the panel so we will be okay there. Lets find a place to mount our module box. We can adhere it to the back of the plastic body work too. Install it pointing down. With that, we can tuck our wires out of the way. When we take our 4-pole wire straighten it out. What we are going to do is fold it back up a little bit in nice long loops. We are just going to push it back inside the storage compartment. That is where it is going to stay when it is not in use. Now we are going to take the wire with the red and green colors and we are going to pass it behind the body work and out through here. We are going to take that same wire and work it back through on the other side of the plastic back up to the tail light. You are going to have to feel for a connection going directly to the tail light. Our wires that are going to cross are going to be covered up by the rear threshold. 03:22
The next thing we need to do is run this red wire up to the battery. We are going to do that using the provided 10 gauge wire that came with the kit. It may be tempting to connect up to the wire up to the 12 volt power supply out back but it is not a good idea. For one, part of the fuse rating is less than what the modulite can actually use. Really just stay away from that 12 volt power supply and just run this up to the battery. What we are going to do is run our black wire up to the engine compartment to the battery and we are going to run it from the inside out using the existing grommet that we see in the back compartment. Pull it out, put a slot in it. Take your wire and just push it out to the outside. Which is where we will pull it out. Then we will just push our wire through the grommet at the other end and we will push that back into place. Then we will take these two ends and use a provided butt connector to connect them together. We will push any remaining slack we have back out. With that we will tuck our remaining wires out of the way and safe and then we will start reassembling our interior components. We will put the back threshold back into place. We are going to run our wire up to the front of the vehicle and what we are going to do is stay away from anything that is moving or gets hot. We are going to stay away from suspension components and go all the way up to the front. There is a factory wiring harness. You can usually just follow that too. We are up to the engine compartment and we just pushed it up as far as we could, and then from the top, reach down and pull out the wires. 05:14
Make sure that we stay away from anything that is moving or gets hot. We will cut a little bit off, about right here, and then we will start connecting up our fuse holder. We have got our fuse holder and it is a loop so lets just cut it in half. We will put a ring terminal on one end and a butt connector on the other. We will connect this to our black wire. Now we are going to start getting our connection to the battery. What we are going to do first off is disconnect the ground. With the ground disconnected we can hook up our positive lead now. This is a cable to another device. We will stack ours on top of that. Make some zip tie connections to make everything neat. Now we can install the fuse. Now we can reconnect to the negative post on our car and that will finish our install. We are going to try out our light tester now. We are going to take the ground and go to the ground pole on our 4-pole flat. Take the probe and put it into your running lights so we know we are good there. That was the brown wire. Now we will go to the yellow wire. There is the left turn. Now the brake signal. Now we will do the same thing with the right turn. That was the turn signal. Now the brake and try it on the trailer. To do that all you need to do is pull out a little bit. When you shut the door on it, because the door seal is plenty thick, it will not hurt anything. We will pull out a little bit for now, shut the door on it. From here we can pull out what we need to get to the trailer wiring harness. It is that easy. When you are not using it put it back into the storage compartment, that is one less thing hanging out and getting dirty outside. With that, that finishes our install of part number 118412 from Tow Ready.

Feds Seek to Seize Tony Alamo Property
Posted 6/10/2013 01:27 pm
Updated 2 years ago
The federal government is seeking permission to sell Arkansas property linked to Tony Alamo to pay $2.5 million in restitution the convicted child sex abuser owes his victims.
Conner Eldridge, the U.S. attorney for the Western District of Arkansas, announced Monday that his office had filed forfeiture and collection actions in federal court on 27 properties connected to Alamo, also known as Bernie Lazar Hoffman. Alamo was sentenced in 2009 to 175 years in prison for taking five girls across state lines for sex. He was ordered to pay $500,000 in restitution to each of the five victims, or $2.5 million.
"We will use every tool at our disposal to see that Tony Alamo pays the $2.5 million he owes to the victims in this case," Eldridge said in a news release. "The victims in this case suffered from horrendous abuse at his hands. We will do all we can to ensure that they receive the restitution that was ordered."
The 27 parcels — in Fort Smith, Texarkana and Fouke (Miller County) — are described as being owned by members of Tony Alamo Christian Ministries, but the U.S. Attorney's Office argued that they remain in Alamo's control and that the owners are "owners in name only." The office said this was a tactic Alamo had used to evade taxes. He was convicted in 1994 of federal tax evasion.
"Under criminal forfeiture laws, the government is authorized to seek the forfeiture of any real property with a nexus to criminal activity, regardless of the owner of record," the office said. "The properties named in the six forfeiture actions facilitated Alamo's abuse of minor children by concealing his criminal conduct from law enforcement and assisting him in psychologically imposing his will on the minor children."
