WASHINGTON, June 19, 2013 ― BuddhaFest, the only festival in the country to feature films, spiritual talks, meditation and live music, returns June 20-23 to Artisphere in Rosslyn, Virginia.
Buddhafest features an ecelectic mix of presenters and teachers
In its fourth annual celebration of mindfulness, meditation and compassion, this year's festival opens to voices beyond Buddhism to include a teacher of ancient Toltec wisdom, a charismatic young yoga guru from India, and a retired Unitarian Universalist minister.
These new and diverse voices will be teaching alongside popular and highly-regarded Buddhist teachers such as Robert Thurman and Sharon Salzberg.
Named one of Time magazine's 25 most influential Americans, Buddhist scholar Robert Thurman joins New York Times best-selling author Sharon Salzberg on Saturday, June 22 for a keynote talk, "Buddhism: A Joyous Science of Kindness and Wisdom." Thurman has written numerous books on Buddhism, Tibet, arts, culture and politics. The New York Times has called him the leading American expert on Tibetan Buddhism. He is the father of actress Uma Thurman.

New at this year's festival is Tibet Fest, a family friendly event on Saturday, June 22, featuring the food, dance, music and spirit of Tibet. Children are admitted free, and kids' activities include making birthday cards to send to the Dalai Lama. Tibet Fest is inspired by Tibetan Buddhist culture and the global concern for its survival inside Tibet.
List of Speakers
Speakers at this year's BuddhaFest are brought together by a similar approach to higher consciousness, and a commitment to the principles of mindfulness and compassion.
HeatherAsh Amara, author of The Toltec Path of Transformation, shares the ancient wisdom that she learned from her mentor, The Four Agreements author don Miguel Ruiz.
Anand Mehrotra is a young guru from Rishikesh, India who has created his own branch of yoga - Sattva Yoga. He appears in person with the film, THE HIGHEST PASS. Screening on Friday, June 21, the film is about a harrowing motorcycle ride that he and his students take into some of the highest areas of the Himalayas - a ride that forces them to deeply confront their fears, and better understand courage.
Former Unitarian Universalist minister Marilyn Sewell closes the festival on Sunday June 23rd as she accompanies the film, RAW FAITH. This documentary is a moving and unflinchingly honest story that traces her personal journey as she learns to care for herself as passionately as she has cared for others.
The full list of speakers includes: Robert Thurman • Sharon Salzberg • Khen Rinpoche • Lobzang Tsetan • Venerable Pannavati Bhikkhuni • Rev. Marilyn Sewell • Ruth King • Anand Mehrotra • Marianne Elliott • HeatherAsh Amara
• Opening Night Film: One Track Heart — The Story of Krishna Das. This film tells a compelling story of transformation as it traces the life journey of Grammy-nominated artist Krishna Das. The film is introduced by director Jeremy Frindel and is followed by a live kirtan music performance by Gaura Vani.
• Former United Nations peacekeeper and human rights advocate Marianne Elliott, author of Zen Under Fire: Finding Peace in the Midst of War, tells a compelling story of working with yoga, meditation and compassionate action in the war-torn battlefields of Afghanistan.
• The GuruGanesha Band performs in concert on Saturday night, June 21. The six-member band features a unique blend of kirtan, raga, rock and deeply meditative folk music.
• Other films include This Dewdrop World. Jeff Goodell of Rolling Stone says, "This Dewdrop World is a beautiful, courageous, intimate film about love and loss. It may also be the deepest meditation on climate change that I've ever seen."

Despite Lady Gaga's Efforts, Senate Blocks "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" Debate
By Daniel Gates | 5:45 pm, September 21st, 2010
The U.S. Senate has voted against debating a bill that includes language providing for the repeal of the military's controversial "don't ask, don't tell" policy, a prospective change championed passionately by Lady Gaga.
Democrats fell short of the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster and move debate forward.
The vote was 56 to 43.
Opposition included every Senate Republican and three Democrats.
Lady Gaga visited Maine on Monday to rally against the long-standing DADT policy, which doesn't allow openly gay soldiers to serve. The performer and service personnel, who have been discharged on the basis of sexual orientation, sought to apply pressure to the state's Republican senators, Olympia Snowe and Susan Collins, on the eve of the vote.
Earlier this month, Lady Gaga attended the MTV Video Music Awards with an entourage of military members affected by the DADT policy.
She also used her gargantuan Twitter base — now nearing 6.5 million followers — to advocate for a repeal, encouraging fans to call politicians and directly tweeting Senator Majority Leader Harry Reid and Senator John McCain.
In fact, every Lady Gaga tweet in the past week has been tied to her impassioned attempt to repeal DADT.
But despite her efforts, Lady Gaga and her supporters fell short.
Do you think Lady Gaga's involvement had any impact on the Senate vote?

iamevoxusWOOP WOOP!
FINALLY finished and past that final difficult module. and this nightmare is over lol :) 2 years ago
10 years after introducing 43 Things to the world, we have decided we have met our last goal: completing the incredible experience that has been 43 Things. Please join us in giving one last cheer to all the folks who have shared their goals with the world, as well as all the people who have worked at The Robot Co-op to build this incredible website. We won a Webby Award, published a book, and brought happiness to a lot of people.
Starting today, 43 Things users can export their goals and entries from the site. Starting August 15, we will make the site "read only". 43 Things users will still be able to view the site and export their content, but we won't be taking any new content from users. We hope to leave the site up for folks to see and download their content until the end of the year. Ending on New Year's Eve takes us full circle.
It has been a long ride (one of our original goals was to "build a company that lasts at least 2 years" - we beat that one!) While we wish the site could live on, it has suffered from a number of challenges - changes in how people use the site, the advertising industry, and how search engines view the site. We wish the outcome was different – but we've always been realistic about when our goals are met and when they aren't.
As of today, you will be able to download your goals and entries. See more about that on the FAQ page. Thanks for 10 great years of goal-setting and achieving.

|Couture Curations
|Written by Sara Elliott
|Sunday, 09 June 2013 20:23
Couture Curations
Cincinnati's newest women's fashion boutique - Curate in Hyde Park - specializes in the curation of your closet. To curate means to select, organize, and display items in a collection or exhibition. Taking a cue from this concept, Curate Boutique officially opened on April 6 and has been curating fabulous fashions - organized in themed collections - for clients ever since.
Owner Courtney PeGan says she's getting ready to launch a new collection she's calling "The New Bohemian." This summer and fall, the Boho Chic trend will be popping back up on our radar, but PeGan says you can expect to see a lot more emphasis on the "chic" part of the trend.
"In the past, Boho style was synonymous with gauzy tops and skirts plus loads of accessories," she explains. "The New Bohemian features the flow, easy tops and maxis with fun, bold prints that you'd normally expect - but in a more streamlined way."
Look for dresses featuring more tailored elements for a slender silhouette, or pairing a flowy, sheer top with a more structured pant, PeGan says. "I'm so excited about this trend because it's all about mixing traditional elements with beautiful, easy pieces for warm weather," she adds. "You can easily work these new Boho-inspired pieces in with what's already in your closet and still be super on-trend."
PeGan is also working on other collections called "90s Revival" and "Everyday Glamour" that are based on emerging key fashion trends. "The 90s have been making a slow comeback for the past couple years," PeGan says. "I think the style is going to reach a tipping point this year. You can expect to see anything from coffeehouse grunge to the preppy styles in Clueless."
The Everyday Glamour collection is being developed thanks to a recent trend of taking hints of glitz - usually reserved for evening attire, such as sequins - and incorporating them into daywear. "I plan to take this trend on with a future collection featuring glamorous pieces that are easy to incorporate into your everyday looks," she explains.
Curating these collections is PeGan's favorite part about owning the boutique and it allows her to tap into both her inner math nerd and her artistic side. "I spent years believes that I wasn't very creative because I was gifted in math and science but awful in art class," she adds. "It wasn't until a few years ago that I realized that being creative and artistic doesn't require a sketch pad or paint brushes - I discovered that fashion is my creative expression."
To help develop her collections, PeGan enjoys reading fashion magazines and blogs from around the world. She likes to discover new music and food trends and indulge herself in all things pop culture so her brain is constantly making connections using different sources to identify patterns and themes.
"I love being able to tangibly bring to life these themes and trends that I am seeing via my style collections," she adds. Her vision for the store is to create a place that's fun to play, shop and discover new designers and styles, but she also wanted it to feel accessible and friendly so more women in the Tri-State can feel beautiful, unique and confident. "I get pictures of women wearing their Curate Boutique outfits around town telling me how many compliments they got," PeGan says. "It makes me feel like I am truly on the right path to achieving my goal."
Besides creating new style collections for the upcoming seasons, PeGan is currently working on developing Curate Boutique's e-commerce site. She wants the store to be available for customers whenever and wherever they want, so having an online store is a big priority for her. She hopes to have things up and running by August.
If you're interested in checking out this and other Hyde Park-based boutiques, you're in luck. On Thursday, June 13, the Hyde Park Merchants are hosting a "Shop, Sip 'n' Stroll" from 5-8pm. PeGan says it's the marriage of her two favorite things - shopping and wine tasting. Most of the merchants participating in the stroll will serve wine as shoppers visit the various boutiques and shops of Hyde Park Square.
PeGan says during the event, she'll be serving champagne and wine tasting inspired mini-cupcakes from Twisted Sugar Cupcakes including champagne cupcakes with spiked fruit filling topped with fruity buttercream and dark chocolate pinot noir cupcakes with chocolate mousse filling topped with honey goat cheese frosting.
"So stop by for some bubbly, intoxicatingly yummy mini-cupcakes, and a sneak peek at The New Bohemian collection," PeGan adds.

While some might be superstitious about Friday the 13th, officials in Warren County say they couldn't be luckier on this Friday after welcoming the announcement of a major business to Queensbury. YNN's Erin Moran has more.
QUEENSBURY, N.Y. -- Hacker Boat Company, a builder of classic mahogany boats, revealed its plans Friday for a brand new $3 million manufacturing, boat restoration and office facility at the Queensbury Business Park.
The new 90,000 square foot facility will be the second tenant of the Queensbury Business Park and will replace two smaller facilities the company has in Ticonderoga.
"It affords us the opportunity to grow and it gives us a facility where we have two or three businesses under one roof. That's the big thing for us. It's an efficient way for us to run our business and it's an easier way for us to grow our business," said George Badcock, President and CEO of Hacker-Craft.
Hacker Boat Company has been working with the Warren County Economic Development Corporation for nearly two years on this agreement. And while Badcock said the company looked at other sites in New York and out of state, the Queensbury location, which is just south of the Warren County Airport, was too convenient to pass up.
"We do have a lot of people come in on private aircrafts, we have a lot of people that come into Albany and drive up the Northway. It's flat land, we don't have to do a lot of demolition of trees and things of that nature. We felt that it's a good opportunity," said Badcock.
The company plans to nearly double its staff from around 45 employees to 80.
Warren County EDC President Ed Bartholomew said news like this is significant for the North Country and will hopefully attract more businesses to the Queensbury Business Park.
"We all recognize when a business locates for instance in Queensbury as this is, people are going to make a selection to live in Warren County, they may live in Washington County. So the real key is to bring in and attract an industry or expand business into an area that will have benefits from employment, benefits from residential living, as well as consumer spending," said Bartholomew.
Construction on the new facility is set to begin later this year.

Like its predecessor, ''The Surreal Life 2'' is aptly named. In the second season of the WB reality sitcom, according to Variety, faded rapper Vanilla Ice will live in a house with a bizarre collection of roommates: Tammy Faye Messner (of televangelism fame), Erik Estrada (''ChiPs''), Traci Bingham (''Baywatch),'' Trishelle (''The Real World: Las Vegas''), and Ron Jeremy (porn). The show will debut early next year, with at least six episodes on their way, Variety reports.
The first ''Surreal Life'' starred a similarly motley crew, including actual Motley Crüe singer Vince Neil, plus Corey Feldman, MC Hammer, and Emmanuel Lewis. The new season will take place in the same house that hosted that cast, although Variety reports that the dwelling has been outfitted with more ''bling bling.'' We assume the Iceman would settle for no less.

A tape recorder is a common accommodation.
Even with high-tech options available, a simple tape recorder often provides an effective accommodation for students with a range of disabilities. Students who have difficulty taking notes, writing, or spelling; students who need to attend to the lecture without being distracted by writing; and students who have visual impairments often benefit from taping lectures. Some students also use a tape recorder to compose homework assignments or answer questions on tests.

Rent Manager Online Review
Rent Manager Online is a highly customizable and powerful property management software ideal for experienced property managers with large and diverse property portfolios. Try It Now
Rent Manager Online is a highly customizable and powerful property management software ideal for experienced property managers with large and diverse property portfolios. Try It Now
Rent Manager Online is one of the most mature property management software providers in the industry. Its main menu is composed of 12 options with dozens of items in the respective submenus. Tasks like adding a new property, unit, or new tenant, are simplified with step-by-step wizards that guide you through the setup process. The main page has a navigation menu on the left that reminds you which tasks you have been working on and enables you to jump back and forth between open windows.
Customization throughout the software is a strength, as many of the features can be changed according to your circumstances and preferences. One unique characteristic of Rent Manager is the ability to move any item from any menu onto the toolbar found near the top of the screen. This enables one-click access to the tools and processes you use most often. You control how many menu items are on the toolbar and can even change the default names. Having the ability to customize is a great resource for property managers with large or diverse portfolios.
The main screens of major functions are accompanied by a series of tabs at the bottom of the page that grant access to various data. For example, the main properties screen includes a General tab, as well as tabs for payments, late fees, and history/notes that enable you to quickly jump to important property information. All properties are listed on the left, so moving between properties or tenants is quite easy. Granting access to information in this manner provides a more complete view of your portfolio and eliminates unnecessary time spent navigating system menus.
Reporting is a strong feature of Rent Manager. For the more data-driven managers and owners, Rent Manager enables you to create custom reports so you can easily access the information you want. Another particularly useful reporting capability is the batch function. By running a batch for owner reports, all bank activity and statements associated with a particular owner are generated. The report viewer enables you to view the report, or you can export to PDF, Excel, or HTML.
For an additional cost, Rent Manager enables you to view your properties from an aerial perspective. Using a proprietary mapping tool, Bird's Eye View (BEV) enables you to color-code your properties and quickly drill down to unit-specific information. In addition, you can print financial reports on each unit and view aged delinquencies, unit occupancy, unit status, and more. All managers will appreciate this functionality, but BEV is especially useful for multi-unit communities.
Rent Manager offers a variety of training options and weekly webinars. It also boasts a comprehensive knowledge base, an active user forum, a lengthy setup guide that deals with higher-level concepts, a dedicated support email, and assistance by phone from 8:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. ET.
Rent Manager has developed a highly functional product, but the overall design is not clean and can feel especially cluttered if you have multiple windows open. Some task windows also utilize difficult-to-read color schemes (for example, red text over a yellow background). The majority of comparable web-based property management products have a modern look and feel and, for the most part, you can tell they were developed specifically for the web.
Many of the basic tasks in Rent Manager have clear processes that should be fairly easy to learn. However, getting to a place where you are comfortable with some of the more complex tasks takes time. Rent Manager has a lot of functionality, especially when you consider all of the add-on services. Plan on taking advantage of online or on-site training, weekly webinars, and other resources Rent Manager has in place to help manage the learning curve and get you operating effectively.
Rent Manager uses the terms "Tenants" and "Customers" to reference the same group of people in different parts of the software. The same image is also used as the icon for both terms. Learning a new software can be a challenging process, but introducing inconsistent terms has the potential to complicate things further.
As opposed to being charged by the number of units you manage, Rent Manager implements a pricing model based on the number of concurrent users. Each concurrent user account requires a one-time activation fee of $195. After that initial setup expense, a monthly subscription fee of $75 per concurrent user is applied. Your monthly subscription fee (number of concurrent users x $75) allows you to manage an unlimited number of units. For property management companies with smaller portfolios, these prices might seem high. But for growing mid-size and large portfolios, having the luxury of a $75 per login for an unlimited number of properties could result in a lower monthly rate.
The following add-on services require contacting Rent Manager for more price information:

Rajon Rondo: I'll be 94.7% by Thursday
For all those worried about Rajon Rondo's muscle spasms (and I never was, Rondo always bounces back and will be fine), no need to stay worried. He says he won't be 100% come Thursday, but he'll be damn close.
And then again, who is 100% at this time, on either team? This is the playoffs, snitches, and the Celtics have now played 99 games. After 99 games, you're either a little banged up or you're like Brian Scalabrine, with your rump stapled permanently to the bench. (ESPN Boston)
"I'm about 67 percent today," Rondo joked, before the Celtics practiced at UCLA's Pauley Pavilion. "I won't be a 100 percent by Thursday, but I'll be like 94.7.
"Right now, nobody in the Finals right now is 100 percent. If you find someone let me know who is, let me know. You can ask the Lakers too. One of our rookies might be 100 percent."
94.7% should be more than enough to destroy Derek Fisher, don't you think? Hell, at this point I'd be surprised if Fisher could even guard me… and I'm a 30-pounds-past-my-prime ex-Division Three player. And if Kobe guards Rondo instead, someone should alert the Lakers: Leaving Rondo wide open doesn't work anymore. Kid Dynamite is growing up. And Kobe can't stick in front of Rondo either. (But, unlike Fisher, he could probably stick in front of me. Just don't think he could stop me if I was still in my prime. I could barely dribble, but the kid could always shoot.)
In other injury news, Rasheed Wallace didn't practice yesterday but said he felt a little better and hopes to practice today. Doc's quote about Sheed wasn't too promising though: "He did say for the first time in about a week that he actually felt a little better, so that's a good sign for us." I'll be shocked if Sheed doesn't play Thursday, but I don't know what kind of results we'll see if he does. Of course, with Sheed I never know what kind of results to expect. Somewhere between awful and pretty damn good, I suppose.

Dr. J. Segal is docent-onderzoeker. Hij promoveerde op een studie over de Duitse kunstdebatten tijdens de Eerste Wereldoorlog. Zijn onderzoek richt zich vooral op Duitse kunst- en cultuurgeschiedenis, de cultuur van de Koude Oorlog en op visuele cultuur. Hij is adviseur van het Wende Museum and Archive of the Cold War, Los Angeles, en redacteur van het International Journal for History, Culture and Modernity.
The International Journal for History, Culture and Modernity (HCM) is a new, peer reviewed journal that offers a forum for interdisciplinary scholarship in the domain of the humanities. The aim of the journal is to stimulate research and a lively academic exchange on the cultural history of global modernity. The journal welcomes new historical approaches, especially those contributing to present-day debates and facilitating a global perspective.HCM intends to fill a niche within historical scholarship: now that postmodernism seems to be in decline, 'modernity' has resurfaced as a highly topical and relevant theme, deserving to be studied from a global, cultural, and interdisciplinary perspective. There are very few English-language journals in the field of cultural history and none of them addresses the global and/or transdisciplinary aspects of 'modernity'. HCM's mission statement dovetails with the philosophy of open access: a critical historical perspective implies unlimited access, by scholars from anywhere in the world, to the results of scholarly research via the internet.
The International Journal for History, Culture and Modernity (HCM) considers scholarly contributions that relate topics in cultural history to the wider context of modernity. The journal welcomes new and critical historical approaches, especially those contributing to present-day debates and facilitating a global perspective.

Abby spent 17 fun years with three young men, Brian, Brett and
Dustin and all of the other pets that we made a home for
during this time which included a Rottweiler (Roxie), and 3 cats,
(Oreo, Orietta and Willow). There was always a lot of excitement
in the house and we were happy that Abby shared that time with
all of us. She loved to go for walks and also sneak out and run
free through the neighborhood when a visitor or house sitter would
accidentally leave the front door open long enough for her to sneak
out. We will always remember the day that we decided to get a
puppy and responded to an advertisement for a golden lab. We
were surprised when we found one puppy left and she did not appear
to be a "golden lab"
as you can see from her photo.

Nevada Game Notes
Fresno State Game Notes
#3 Nevada Wolf Pack (18-12, 12-6 MW)
#2 Fresno State Bulldogs (20-10, 13-5 MW)
March 14, 2014
Thomas & Mack Center
Las Vegas, Nev.
2:30 p.m. PT
INTERNET BROADCAST: The game will be streamed live on the Mountain West Network via NevadaWolfPack.tv (web/mobile). An audio-only broadcast, is also available at www.nevadawolfpack.com/audio.
RADIO: Ryan Radtke (play-by-play) has the call in Northern Nevada on NBC
Sports Radio 1060 AM . Pregame show starts 15 minutes before tip-off. The
broadcast is available online at NevadaWolfPack.com/audio.
SERIES: The Wolf Pack and Bulldogs have previously met 43 times, in a rather one-sided all-time series. Fresno State leads the lengthy series 32-11, but the two teams have never met on a neutral court in their history. During the regular season, Nevada and Fresno State split the season series, each team claiming a win at home. The two teams have split the season series in each of the past two years.
LAST MEETING: The Bulldogs posted a 73-48 home win back in mid-February
THE SKINNY: Nevada, picked 10th in this year's preseason poll, earned rights to the No. 3 seed after posting a 12-win conference season, the most conference wins in program history ... After receiving its first MW tournament bye, the Wolf Pack are headed to its first MW semifinals game ... Senior Danika Sharp passed Tahnee Robinson Tuesday night with her 12-point effort to become Nevada's 10th all-time leading scorer with 1,073 career points ... Junior Mimi Mungedi set a new Mountain West Tournament record Tuesday when she posted seven blocks, also a new career-high for her ... Head coach Jane Albright is 13 victories shy of 500 for her career and is looking for her 10th trip to the NCAA Tournament
LAYUPS: One of Nevada's biggest strengths is its work on the glass, having outrebounded its opponents in 19 games this season … The Wolf Pack leads the league in offensive rebounds (15.8 orpg) and is second in defensive rebounds (28.1 drpg) … Mungedi's 55 blocks this season rank her first in the conference, nine ahead of Sam Martin (Colorado State) ... Mungedi also ranks highly in the league in field goal percentage, currently second (.542) ... When Nevada leads at the half, its odds for a victory are very high (93 percent) ... The only game this season the Wolf Pack lost after being up at the half, came on the road at Colorado State (led 31-30 at halftime, lost 71-64)
'SHARP' CAREER: Senior guard Danika Sharp continues to etch her name into the Nevada career record book. She has moved into a sole possession of third place in career 3-pointers at Nevada, having drained 159 in her career. Nevada's record for career three-pointers is 212, held by Ashley Bastian (1999-2003).
Sharp is also moving up the list of career free throws (264) at Nevada. She is sixth entering this game. With 12 points during Tuesday's quarterfinals game against San Diego State, Sharp passed Tahnee Robinson in career points, to become Nevada's 10th all-time leading scorer with 1,073 points.
BLOCK PARTY: Juniors Mimi Mungedi and Emily Burns have proven to be two of the better shot-blockers in Nevada history during their careers. You'll find both players on Nevada's single-season and career charts as Burns is coming off a 37-block season in 2012-13 and Mungedi has tallied 55 blocks this year.
CONFERENCE HONORS: Junior center Mimi Mungedi was named the Mountain West Co-Defensive Player of the Year, sharing the title with senior Taylor Thompson of Fresno State. Mungedi also earned a spot on the league's all-defensive team. Senior Danika Sharp received All-MW second team honors, while classmate Arielle Wideman secured honorable mention accolades. This marks Sharp's second Mountain West honor, as she received an honorable mention last year, and is the first for Mungedi and Wideman.
Mungedi leads the league in blocks and posted at least one block in 22 games this season. Sharp hit a career milestone when she notched her 1,000th point against New Mexico and ranks fifth in the conference with 62 made three-pointers. Wideman produced a career-best offensive season, averaging 10.4 points per game. Her 129 assists (4.3 apg) rank her sixth in the league.
HISTORY IN THE MOUNTAIN WEST TOURNAMENT: Friday night's matchup against Fresno State will be the first trip for the Wolf Pack to the semifinals of the Mountain West Tournament. Last year, Nevada's inaugural season in the Mountain West, the Pack defeated Air Force 80-66 in the tournament play-in-game and earned the rights to face San Diego State in the next round. The Aztecs' defense led them to a 67-39 win over the Wolf Pack. Danika Sharp led all Nevada scorers in the two games, posting 35 points, including 25 against Air Force. Mimi Mungedi chipped in 28 points and collected a team-best 16 rebounds and three blocks.

Nissan models, news & reviews
Ollie Kew
First Official Pictures
18 February 2013 09:00
Nissan has designed, engineered and will build its new Note mini-MPV in the UK. The second-gen Note packs better safety and driver assistance tech into an altogether more fashionable body than its cute but uninpsiring predecessor. Does it have enough talent to cause nightmares for the Ford Fiesta and Honda Jazz? Read on for the full details of the 2013 Geneva motor show-bound supermini.
Making its debut in the new Note is the 'Nissan Safety Shield' package. It comprises a blind spot warning system, lane departure warning and an advanced moving object detection system, plus a rear 'helicopter view' camera, which displays a bird's eye view over the car's rear on the 5.8-inch infotainment display when reversing. Features like this have been around for a while on executive saloons, but Nissan reckons the Note is the first car to offer such gadgets in a supermini package.
Remember the old note's wraparound rear light clusters that swept onto the roof? It's probably the only design feature you'll recall from the old car, but the new one is making a bigger effort to stand out. Opt for the Dynamic pack (as seen on the red car in our gallery) and you get the sporty bodykit with wider air intakes and a faux-diffuser rear bumper.
You can choose from three engines. There's a 79bhp 1.2-litre petrol (60.1mpg), and a 97bhp version of the same engine (actually greener at 65.7mpg at 99g/km of CO2 rather than 109g/km). There's also a 1.5-litre diesel that's the eco-friendliest of the lot, with 78.5mpg claimed fuel economy and a 95g/km CO2 output.
Nissan's new dashboard design is supposed to help drivers get the best out of the engines, too. The Note's instrument panels house two eco gauges: an eco pedal gauge gives an efficiency rating to the driver's throttle input, while an overall eco meter gives a records real-time economy.
The new Note will launch with three trim grades – Visia, Acenta and Tekna. All models feature stop-start, six airbags and cruise control. Mid-spec Acenta models add air-con, Bluetooth connection and rear electric windows, while top-spec Tekna models get the Safety Shield pack, 'Around View Monitor', part-leather trim and keyless entry.
Prices will be revealed in the summer of 2013, with the first European sales coming this autumn.

RE: Nissan Note (2013) first pictures of Euro-spec supermini
Is there going to be a Renault Modus sibling again? Will they keep the sliding backseat?

Honda should indeed be flattered by the imitation here, but the Jazz is a good car and this has potential too.
It's not just for OAPs either - friends with young children have bought both Jazz and Note as they make economical and useful chariots for young families. But air conditioning is essential these days, when small people are strapped into car seats. Not offering it on the base model is unforgivable, really.

Do Japanese manufacturers get their styling kits from a bin of common parts? That the arse end looks like the Honda Jazz should be no surprise as there are only so many ways to manage the intersection of panels on an upright box. But a front end treatment almost identical to the Honda CRV? That's a surprise.
19 February 2013 12:53
Johann down below made the remark that only OAPs were going to buy this. OAPs make up 16% of the population of the EU, so they are a considerable market. Eurostat have the details. Additionally, I really do wonder about why it´s acceptable to sneer or dismiss older people. Recent research has shown that the over 65s are still humans. And if Johann is lucky, he´ll get to be 65 too one day.
19 February 2013 11:49
Oh dear. It looks very like the love child of the previous generation Jazz (I can't say Mk1 as that implies the 80's (?) car that carried that name in Japan) and the current Toyota Starlet - I mean, Yaris. It's rather too fussy, and all the worse for that very after-thought looking rear spoiler. I can't say I find the interior particularly attractive either, and am indeed concerned that the plastics are of a similar quality to the current Micra (which are in turn a step backwards from those of the previous Micra). I prefer the styling of the current car, to be honest.

There's only one topic appropriate to follow my last wedding post: the proposal. That's the moment that will be remembered with the engagement ring's presentation so it was crucial to get right. I wanted to create a good memory for Tina of how the engagement ring got on her finger, and I wanted to propose in a way that was "us". That meant it had to be memorable, but not cheesy or over the-top.
This is what happens when you try to be too creative with your wedding proposal

Ask Ananda's Experts
Questions and answers about meditation, yoga, the spiritual life, and more
How to hit the right note
I am an aspiring singer. I put in a lot of hardwork for my music. In addition, during meditation, I use the prayer demand from the whispers of eternity which says " Every sound that I make let it have the vibration of Thy voice" to get the Lord's grace. Will it help? Also whenever I am not able to sing the right notes (and this happens often) I am completely devastated. It puts me off for an entire day. How can I detatch myself from the results and not expect too much ?Please help.
Dear Jaya - perhaps my article on The Sacred Art of Singing would help! I've written about how to tap into Divine Inspiration as you sing.
Our egos love to get in the way and make us feel poorly after making mistakes - don't buy into it! Unlike skiing blunders, you haven't hurt yourself or others, and the best way to improve is to allow yourself to make mistakes, but keep your aim ever high!
In joyful service, David

"Hard to assign stars because, for me, roasted brussel sprouts are 5+stars with just a bit of sea salt. So gilding the lily has the potential only to add work (complexity)...so it'd better also meet that perfection. :-) This does. Not beautiful with roasted brussel sprouts but ever so much more tasty."
"These Honey Prawns are scrumptious! I feared they would be too sweet but they are just right. I halved the recipe but was generous with the carrot and snow peas."
"Lemon and broccoli/broccolini--how can you go wrong? The lemon zest intensified the flavor. Yum."
"Oh wow, the differences in ovens! I am not recording stars because mine would be two stars at best, for an hour at 425. But I account that to ovens. Mine were almost charred. So know your oven!
With my oven, another recipe I have tried, that worked for me, required only 20-30 minutes at 400 degrees F.
"Very nice. Granted, I tossed them with a bit of butter. :-) I never would have thought of mint with sugar snaps but they're good."
"REALLY good and so easy. I passed on the mint but otherwise made as specified. DELICIOUS!"
"Lovely flavor and they were fairly crispy. A bit overdone at 30 minutes plus 10."
"My favorite recipe for Rainbow Chard! I made it without the feta but will try it that way the next time. And there WILL be a next time."
"Yummy! Will make again."
"Super easy and delicious! (And I'm another who couldn't find pineapple perserves anywhere!)"

I was playing JK a few days ago in multiplayer and I found that I couldn't handle the force powers. I mean, the interface was so clunky and slow, and I had to manage 2 fire modes, inventory and force powers. I'm used to ut where your controls are basically "fire" and "altfire".
We are spoilt these days with the ease of controls. Even the relativly complex Deus Ex has the augmentations assigned to F keys, with none of the fancy selecting with the bracket keys.
I've grown lazy, and now I can't even handle the force.
25th Jul 2001, 06:03 PM
I have Q&E selecting Force powers, F using them, and G switching inventory, and of course Mouse Button 3 using inventory. Space is jump, Tab is activate.

Okay, for those of you who can't wait for your browser to load, or better yet, have already heard of this news and don't want to be led blindly down the same path, it's the next episode in the Dark Forces series using the Quake III engine. Fortunately, it's not a rehash of the Episode I crap, but actually continues the story about Kyle Katarn. Complete with stormtroopers whose heads can be sliced off and sweet lookin' graphics.

CORPUS CHRISTI - Walk, ride or drive in any direction in this city and eventually, you're going to run into a spare tire or several of them.
They're all over the place.
So, the city is working on a plan to rid itself of the tires.
City of Corpus Christi Solid Waste Director Lawrence Mikolajczyk on Tuesday presented a draft ordinance to the City Council asking for more control over the problem.
He says there are about 130 tire shops in the city and the ordinance would require them to register themselves with the city, begin marking their tires with a designated number, and keep a detailed manifest of the tires.
Marking the tires would give the city a way to trace where it came from.
And the manifest protects the business from liability if someone buys tires and then, dumps them.
Rafael Velasquez owns Big Boys Tires on Ayers and says random tires just show up at his place.
He says people are always leaving tires in front or beside his store.
He says the city's plan sounds good but wonders if it will work. He says if someone takes one of his tires and the city traces it back to him, he'll be the one stuck with a stiff penalty.
"Sometimes we leave tires outside and people take them because they think they're good and they're probably gonna go dump them somewhere else," he says. "And they're gonna blame us. So, everything's gonna come back to us - the tire shop owners."
Mikolajczyk says workshops are planned to help fine-tune the ordinance and public input is part of that process. The workshops are being planned for the late summer.

40 Cars Pre-entered for the ARCA/CRA Super Series Event at Berlin Raceway this Saturday
Salem, IN (May 9, 2012) – Champion Racing Association officials have announced that there are already 40 cars pre-entered for this weekend's ARCA/CRA Super Series event at Berlin Raceway located in Marne, Michigan. The list of entries is one of the largest ever for a regular season event for the series as teams use this event to help prepare for the 4th Annual Rowdy 251 special event that will take place at Berlin Raceway on Tuesday, June 19th featuring NASCAR great Kyle Busch.
Saturday's race will be the 14th ARCA/CRA Super Series event that the tricky 7/16 mile facility has hosted. Berlin has always been known for its talented local drivers and very knowledgeable and passionate race fans. As usual Saturday's event will pit the best from the ARCA/CRA Super Series against the best local drivers from Berlin's Coors Light Super Late Model Division.
Topping the list of entries for Saturday's event is local sensation Brian Campbell, who has become pretty much a regular with the ARCA/CRA Super Series the last three years. Campbell, from nearby Wyoming, Michigan, is currently tied with his father Fred with the most ARCA/CRA Super Series victories at Berlin with three. Campbell also captured last year's inaugural Season Championship in the track's template bodied Coors Light Super Late Model Division.
Campbell was victorious at the series last event on April 22nd at Toledo Speedway after a tough battle with fellow former Berlin regular and two time ARCA/CRA Super Series Champion Johnny VanDoorn, who is also entered for Saturday's event and is still looking for his first CRA victory at Berlin. VanDoorn currently leads the series points while Campbell is in third place only four points behind after two events in 2012.
Other top CRA regulars who are entered include Terry Fisher Jr., Jay Niewiek, Kenny Tweedy, Jason Dietsch, Kenzie Ruston, Lakeland, Florida's Steve Dorer, Rick Turner, Nick Gullatta, Peter Cozzolino, Kyle Jones, and 2011 JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Champion Erik Jones, crew chiefed by three time series Champion Scott Hantz. All the top Boyne Machine Rookie of the Year candidates are entered including Nate Caruth, Becca Kasten, Johnny Jenkins, Brett Robinson, Travis Braden and Mark Lambert.
Several top local drivers are entered including former Berlin CRA event winners Ross Meeuwsen, Tom Thomas and Terry Van Haitsma. Also Tim DeVos, Alec Carll, Brandon Hermiller, Keith Herp, Caleb Bisacky, Chris Anthony, Jordan Dahlke, Seth Moody, Lauren Bush, Dave Lake, Justin Regnerus, Dan Vander Molen, Lee VanDyk and Tim Greene.
Los Angles, California native Joey Licata will make his first ever series start with the Andy Ponstein Racing team out of Jenison, Michigan. Gary Terry will make the trip back to Michigan from Florida to compete in the GT Products car. Former ARCA Racing Series competitor Billy Leslie, son of famed ARCA competitor Tracy Leslie, will be looking to make his second start of the season with the series. Michigan native Ryan Inman will be attempting to also make his first start of the season with the series Saturday.
There is an open practice scheduled for Friday with pits opening at 3pm, practice will go from 4 to 8pm. Pit gates open on Saturday at 11am. Practice will begin at 1pm with qualifying beginning at 4:15pm. The race program will begin at 7pm and will include 15 lap last chance races and the Berlin 125 for the ARCA/CRA Super Series along with racing action from the Berlin Sportsman and Modified divisions and the VROA cars.

2012: What the Mayan calendar means
CINCINNATI - We are less than a year away from December 21, 2012, the date of the Winter Solstice in 2012 and the end of the Mayan calendar.
The date has become infamous with doomsday predictions along with movies and websites devoted to the devastation and destruction predicted for the day.
Dean Regas from the Cincinnati Observatory says, "Forget what you read on websites. Don't believe movies or the History Channel. The world will not end on December 21, 2012."
The 13th cycle of the current Mayan calendar is set to end next year and many have placed a great deal of significance on this event.
Regas has taken an in-depth look at the myths that have emerged about the date of December 21, 2012. He says that "the basis of this myth goes to an idea that a series in the Mayan Long Count calendar (which lasts 5126 years) may be coming to an end that day".
However, there is nothing in the Mayan's mythology to back up this belief that there will be great disaster to fall on Earth the day the current calendar ends. Regas says, "The Long Count is one of many calendar cycles that they observed. When it ran out, they just started a new cycle".
The Mayans did not come up with this end of the world theory. It is our interpretation that has led to this thinking.
Speculation about this being a doomsday event might have begun when Michael D. Coe in 1966 in The Maya wrote "there is a suggestion ... that Armageddon would overtake the degenerate peoples of the world and all creation on the final day of the 13th. Thus ... our present universe be annihilated when the Great Cycle of the Long Count reaches completion."
When the Mayans made it to the end of a cycle, they didn't look at is a doomsday event.
"For the ancient Maya, it was a huge celebration to make it to the end of a whole cycle," said Sandra Noble, executive director of the Foundation for the Advancement of Mesoamerican Studies.
As for the being planets lining up that day, Regas used simulation software to prove that there are no unique astronomical events happening. "The Earth and Sun will line up with the center of our galaxy that day – but that happens every December 21", he said.
There is also the theory of a "rogue planet" hitting us in 2012. He said this is not true. There is no conspiracy by the government to hide this, not to mention that there are thousands of amateur astronomers that are watching the skies and blogging about what they see.
Regas did take a look at what the Mayans did with astronomy. "They had an interesting base-20 counting system (as opposed to our base-10), made incredibly accurate charts for observing the planet Venus and could do okay at predicting eclipses", he said. He also explored their architecture with Chichen Itza.
For additional information on the 2012 Mayan calendar, you can check out this video by Dean Regas.
The Observatory is available for rent on December 21, 2012 if anyone is interested. Bidding will start at $10,000 and go to the highest bidder. A free open house will be held on December 22, 2012.

From the Delaware Dept. of Natural Resources and Environmental Control
-- Volunteer birdwatchers are needed to assist the Delaware DNREC with an annual productivity survey on the location and number of wild turkeys in the state.
The data will help biologists track the health, distribution and reproductive success of the state's wild turkeys with the goal of ensuring a sustainable harvest of this treasured game species.
Currently the state has a thriving wild turkey population that allows for an annual turkey season, but this was not always the case. The reintroduction of the wild turkey in 1984, nearly 200 years after it became locally extinct, remains one of the Division's greatest success stories.
In early 1984, with support from the National Wild Turkey Federation, biologists released 34 wild-trapped turkeys from Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Vermont into Sussex and Kent counties. Reintroductions continued through the 1990s, and once the population had successfully established a foothold in Delaware, a limited hunting season was started. The last release of wild-trapped turkeys occurred in 2002 in New Castle County. Today, turkeys can be found in every corner of the state.
To ensure the continued success of wild turkeys in Delaware, information on their distribution and annual reproductive success is valuable. One simple and cost-effective method is to have volunteers record and report sightings of turkeys.
The 2010 survey period begins July 1 and continues through Aug. 31. Upon sighting turkeys, participants are asked to record the date, county and number of adult hens, gobblers and poults (young of the year) they observe. Participants are asked to submit their results to the Division by Sept. 10.
A data sheet and set of instructions is available for volunteers to download. For more information, please contact Wildlife Biologist Matthew DiBona at (302)735-3600.

And who needs attractions or rides, when you can literally stroll from one country to the next, enjoying the entertainers that are scattered throughout this half of the park? Some of our favorites include the Jeweled Dragon Acrobats in China, Miyuki with her amazing candy creations in Japan, the World Showcase Players, and of course, you have to give Off Kilter, the Celtic rockers popular with so many, a mention here too!
Despite the impending 30th birthday celebrations, it's amazing to look back at how little has changed in World Showcase during those last three decades. Morocco and Norway were added into the mix in 1984 and 1988 respectively, but every other country has been there since Day One. Of course, the entertainers have changed over the years, with one notable example being the British Invasion, who played their last Beatles concert in 2011.
Another reason I love Epcot so much is the night-time entertainment in World Showcase Lagoon. IllumiNations gives visitors a reason to stay beyond closing time – and what a reason! It is, by far and away, my favorite show, at any Disney park around the world. Every time I see it, it makes me grin insanely and sob my eyes out, such is the intensity of emotions it evokes. A lot of credit goes to the amazing musical score, but it's also the assault on your senses, using fireworks and lasers to their full extent. Like any good Disney attraction, every time I see IllumiNations, I see something new, particularly on the centerpiece globe.
The changes over the years are more evident when you get to Future World, with Spaceship Earth only recently having undergone a major refurbishment to bring it more up to date, even if it still tells the same familiar story. Innoventions, by its nature, constantly changes, while elsewhere there have been more major alterations. World of Motion gave way to Test Track, and while the loss of former attraction is much lamented, no-one can deny that its replacement is certainly something quite special. Another much-missed attraction is Horizons, which was where Mission: Space is today. Here, I can honestly say I'd probably rather have the previous incarnation, but then again, we're not thrill riders, and I can appreciate that Mission: Space probably helps to draw in a younger audience, which does Epcot no harm at all.
Perhaps my favorite attraction through the years has been what's now called the Seas with Nemo and Friends. When it opened, it was known as the Living Seas, and I fondly remember falling in love with this attraction when I first visited. I was enchanted by being able to head beneath the waves to a new world, and could have lingered forever, watching everything swim in front of me. Over the years, it became a less popular and neglected attraction, before finally gaining a new lease of life with new Disney characters helping to achieve that. That's something else I adore about this park. Perhaps more than any other, because of the fact it celebrates the future, it can undergo radical changes and survive and thrive as a result.
Something else that makes me love Epcot are the festivals that take place throughout the year. It's no coincidence that our favorite times to visit are the spring, when the Flower and Garden Festival is in full bloom; the fall, when we can sample the offerings from the Food and Wine Festival booths; and Christmas, when we can enjoy the holiday activities and decorations that make this park even more beautiful. It says something that Epcot has so many special celebrations throughout the year. Maybe Disney loves the place as much as I do?
Perhaps most importantly, the second I walk into Epcot, I immediately feel as if I'm at home. What more could you want from a theme park? Happy 30th anniversary to Epcot, and here's to many more celebrations over the years to come. May the years be good to my favorite Walt Disney World theme park
