A June 2006 report by the National Transportation Safety Board released a national status report on implementing pupil transportation safety recommendations as part of its "Most Wanted List" of recommended transportation safety improvements. It found a majority of states have failed to take any action on following up on SAFETEA-LU, federal law passed in 2005 that prohibits nonconforming vans in school bus transportation and closes a loophole that previously only penalized dealerships from selling the vehicles to school districts.
The NTSB reported that 25 states from Connecticut to Hawaii have taken limited or no action, including the District of Columbia. Another 15 states have implemented limited or partial restrictions on so-called 15-passenger vans, and only 10 states prohibit the vehicles from transporting children to all schools and day care centers.

In February 2004 the National Association of State Directors of Pupil Transportation Services released the results of a survey of State Director members that found 29 states have laws or regulations that prohibit the use of vans for transporting public school students to-and-from school and school-related activities.
Meanwhile, a 1997 National School Transportation Association (NTSA) national survey found that 22 states at the time still allowed the use of 11-15 passenger vans in pupil transportation, albeit regular transportation or certain special activity trips. Only six state prohibited the use of smaller eight to 10 passenger vans for student transportation. Some states have since enacted laws that prohibit the vehicle altogether, though they are not required to do so. Regardless, all public school districts are now prohibited by federal law from purchasing or leasing these non-conforming vans for use in any form student transportation whatsoever.
The Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), the reauthorization of the congressional highway bill enacted in August 2005, closed a loophole that previously banned only the manufacture or sale of these non-conforming vehicles "knowingly" for the purpose of pupil transportation to school districts. The new provision bans the illicit purchase of these vehicles by public school districts. Fines range from $10,000 for the first offense up to $15 million. Private and parochial schools, day care facilities and colleges and universities are not affected. Some schools still use the non-conforming vans to transport teachers and staff.

15 December 2007
A team led by a University archaeologist has reconstructed a 3,000-year-old glass furnace, showing that Ancient Egyptian glassmaking methods were much more advanced than previously thought.
Dr Paul Nicholson, of the School of History and Archaeology, is leader of an Egypt Exploration Society team working on the earliest fully excavated glassmaking site in the world. The site, at Amarna, on the banks of the Nile, dates back to the reign of Akhanaten (1352 – 1336 B.C.), just a few years before the rule of Tutankhamun.
It was previously thought that the Ancient Egyptians may have imported their glass from the Near East at around this time. However, the excavation team believes the evidence from Amarna shows they were making it themselves, possibly in a single stage operation. Dr Nicholson and his colleague Dr Caroline Jackson of Sheffield University demonstrated this was possible, producing a glass ingot from their own experimental reconstruction of a furnace near the site.
The team have also discovered that the glassworks was part of an industrial complex which involved a number of other high temperature manufacturing processes. The site also contained a potter's workshop and facilities for making blue pigment and faience – a material used in amulets and architectural inlays. The site was near one of the main temples at Amarna and may have been used to produce materials in state buildings.
Dr Nicholson, who has been working at Amarna since 1983, said: "It has been argued that the Egyptians imported their glass and worked it into the artefacts that have been discovered from this time. I believe there is now enough evidence to show that skilled craftsmen could make their own glass and were probably involved in a range of other manufacturing industries as well."
Dr Nicholson has now written a book detailing the discoveries made at Amarna. Entitled Brilliant Things for Akhenaten, it is published by the Egypt Exploration Society (London) and available through Oxbow Books in the UK and The David Brown Book Company in the USA.

Slayer is a thrash metal band from US, formed in 1981. The band was founded by guitarists Jeff Hanneman and Kerry King. The band was credited as one of the "Big Four" thrash metal bands, along with Metallica, Anthrax, and Megadeth. Slayer's musical traits involve fast tremolo picking, guitar solos, double bass drumming, and shouting vocals. The band's lyrics and album art, which cover topics such as death, deviants, suicide, genocide, necrophilia, insanity, Nazism, religion, Satanism, serial killers, and warfare have generated album bans, delays, lawsuits and strong criticism from religious groups and the general public. Slayer is best known for speaking through perspective without being necessarily sympathetic to the cause of their inspiration. Since their debut record in 1983, the band has released two live albums, one cover album, one box set, three DVDs, one VHS, two EPs, and eleven studio albums, four of which have received gold certification in the United States. The band has received three Grammy nominations, winning one in 2007 for the song "Eyes Of The Insane", and one in 2008 for the song "Final Six". They have headlined music festivals worldwide, including Unholy Alliance and Ozzfest. Slayer was formed in 1981 in Huntington Park, Los Angeles, California. The Band was formed by guitarists Jeff Hanneman and Kerry King when they met at a tryout for a local band. Tom Araya soon joined on bass and vocals, and drummer Dave Lombardo joined last later in 1982. They played in a style reminiscent of early Exodus, influenced heavily by punk acts Minor Threat, Stooges and Heavy Metal bands Venom and Judas Priest. "Black Magic", the heaviest, darkest, and most evil song at the time (according to some), was written in February, 1983, and marked Slayer's definite venture into thrash metal. They secured a spot on the compilation appeareance "Metal Massacre III" in 1983, contributing the speed metal song "Aggressive Perfector". They also recorded two demos in 1983, and became a popular live act in the Los Angeles area. (In 1983, Bob Gourley filled in for Dave for one gig. He later appeared in Dark Angel (US).) Their debut LP, Show No Mercy, was recorded in November, 1983.) A live EP was recorded in the studio in front of 50 of their closest friends in January, 1984, and after that "Show No Mercy" was released. The "Haunting the Chapel" and "Live Undead" EPs followed. After 1985's "Hell Awaits", Slayer were signed to Rick Rubin's Def Jam record label, better known for acts like Run DMC. This led to three studio albums, including the brutal "Reign in Blood", as well as a 1991 live double CD, "Decade Of Aggression". Dave Lombardo left the band in 1987 for several weeks, and was replaced for a few live gigs by Tony Scaglione (Whiplash (US)), and then again left in 1992. Finally, in 1994, Paul Bostaph from Forbidden was brought in, and three more albums were recorded. Then, in 2001, Bostaph left to join Systematic, and Lombardo, who had been in Grip Inc. and Fantomas rejoined the band. Interesting facts: It's official that Slayer is the most covered metal band in the world aside from Metallica and Iron Maiden. Tom Araya (born Tomas Enrique Araya June 6, 1961 in Vina del Mar, Chile. He has provided guest vocals to recordings by other artists, including "Iron Gland" from Alice In Chains' album Dirt, and "Terrorist" from Soulfly's album Primitive. His brother is John Araya (Bloodcum (US), Thine Eyes Bleed) Kerry King recorded a guitar solo for "No Sleep Til' Brooklyn" by the popular hip-hop/rock group Beastie Boys. Tom Araya's brother John (Bloodcum (US), Thine Eyes Bleed) worked as an sound engineer for Slayer in their early days. According the book of Jarek Szubrycht (Lux Occulta) "Bez litosci. Prawdziwa historia zespo?u Slayer", Greg Hall was asked to play with Slayer after Tony Scaglione left the band in January 1987. It never happens because Lombardo returned to the band. Gene Hoglan, the legendary drummer who has played in bands such as Dark Angel (US), Strapping Young Lad and Death, used to be a Slayer lights man and roadie on the Show No Mercy tour, and was asked to be Dave Lombardo's drum tech on the Haunting North America tour ('84), but knocked it back to pursue his own music career. He even did backup vocals on the album Show No Mercy (the song Evil Has No Boundaries). Birth Dates: Tom Araya (06 June 1961 Vina del Mar, Chile) Jeff Hannemann (31 January 1964 Oakland, CA) Kerry King (03 June 1964 Los Angeles, CA) Dave Lombardo (16 February 1965 Havana, Cuba) Paul Bostaph (26 March 1964 Newark, CA)+ Rumor has it the band was originally known as Dragonslayer, after the 1981 movie of the same name. However, when King was asked "How did you come up with the name Dragonslayer?" King responded "We never did; it's a myth to this day."

this wiki
Fellowship of The Sun Soldier
Suicide Bomber
- "Right up there with incest and bestiality--all of them ain't half as bad as if you did it to a vampire, or to a dude, or a vampire dude. That's like cream de la cream of sins. Ain't no repentance for that. Straight to hell, baby."
- ―Luke[src]
Luke McDonald was a recurring character in Season 2 and a Soldier of the Sun in 2008 before killing himself with a suicide bomb.
Season 2Edit
Luke is a dedicated fanatic member of the Fellowship of the Sun. Desperate to please and to come out on top, he becomes viciously jealous of Jason Stackhouse.
He meets Jason on the bus to the Light of Day Institute. Luke found himself lost after having a career ending injury during a football game at his college Texas A&M. While, being lost he heard a calling from God. Luke explains he has been studying and training for the past two years to come to this camp. Needless to say, he's a bit shocked when Jason admits he only decided to come to the Light of Day Institute a couple of days ago. They quickly bond and become friends on the bus, but when Jason defeats him in a game, Luke becomes jealous. His bitterness only grows as Jason is then chosen to act out a scene in front of everyone and gets cheered.
Luke warns Jason that he's going to come out on top, but after a few days Jason continues receiving praise. As Jason's public adoration grows, so does Luke's bitterness.
Jason and Luke become friends again while training. They work together on building a platform for the Fellowship of the Sun when Luke admits he was jealous and even advises Jason to become celibate. They both come up with a rhyme to go along with the burning of the vampire.
During the big showdown between the vampires and the Fellowship of the Sun, Godric sends all the humans home, but Luke is reluctant to leave. Later that night, Luke goes to the vampire nest wearing a silver bomb strapped to his chest, blows up the house (including himself) while attempting to kill as many vampires as possible in the name of God and the Fellowship. ("Timebomb")

Missi Davis, Caroline Kingsley, Brittani Arlandis Green (center), Diana Slickman and Kristen Magee in Dog & Pony Theatre Co.'s "Breach" at The Den Theatre, 1333 N. Milwaukee Ave., Jan. 16-Feb. 16. Tickets and info at dogandponychicago.org. | Timmy Samuel, Starbelly Studios
Updated: April 14, 2014 4:39PM
"A hyper-physical piece about five grieving women attempting to butcher a whale." That is the intriguing "promo" description for Egan Reich's "Breach," the world-premiere production that kicks off the 10th anniversary season of the ever-ambitious, envelope-pushing Dog & Pony Theatre Company. This show is on the top of my "must-see" list if only because it sounds a whole lot like a female version of "Moby-Dick."
Reich (a playwright, screenwriter and member of Chicago's Steep Theatre who currently lives in Washington, D.C., where he is a spokesman for the United States Department of Labor) has conjured five widows faced with the toughest night of their lives, for just as the sea has swallowed up their husbands, it also has deposited a beached whale in their midst. And with that whale comes the possibility of financial freedom. Yet as the women set out to do their husbands' work of harvesting the whale oil to buy their way to new lives in New York City, they have to figure out how to kill and cut the whale while avoiding circling sharks.
Directed by Krissy Vanderwarker (co-founder and co-artistic director of Dog & Pony) and featuring Missi Davis, Brittani Arlandis Green, Kristen Magee, Caroline Kingsley, and Diana Slickman, the production uses an intensely physical language, as much as a verbal one, to spin this story.
"Breach" runs through Feb. 16 at The Den, 1333 N. Milwaukee. For tickets ($25) visit brownpapertickets.com/event/500905.

Scott Spiezio, who hit the dramatic three-run home run in Game 6 of the 2002 World Series to spark the Angels' comeback, has taken a new, powerful interest in motorcycle racing.
We caught up with Spiezio this past Saturday at the SoCal Baseball and Sports Collectors Expo at the Anaheim Marriott, where he was signing autographs. (Click here to read the column in Monday's Register.)
Spiezio, 40, a two-time World Series champion with the Angels and Cardinals during his 12- year MLB career (1996-2007), will serve as the grand marshal for the third stop of the 2013 Monster Energy Supercross on Saturday night (Jan. 19) at Angel Stadium.
He joins former MLB players Randy Johnson and Jim Edmonds in becoming Supercross enthusiasts.
Spiezio, who resides in Morris, Ill., will take part in pre-race events and the opening ceremonies, which will feature video highlights from his Angels days (2000-2003). He will also be available for autographs and photos when he works his way through the raceday crowd.

Wood flooring can completely changes the look and feel of just about any space. The floors are the first thing that you would look at when refurbishing any of the spaces in your home. Learning how to install wooden flooring on a tight budget is an excellent skill to possess in today's economy.
One of the first things that you should accept is that laminate flooring is a much more achievable goal than actual wood flooring. It is durable, aesthetically pleasing and a lot cheaper than wooden flooring. Also, laminate floors can be installed by just about anyone as long as they follow a few basic guidelines.
DIY laminate flooring can be pieced together like a giant puzzle. Most laminate flooring manufacturers strive to produce flooring that can be fitted quickly and easily. Generally speaking, no nails or glue is necessary and some board already come with glue backing and they simply click into one another.

Blake Lively Gossip
Blake Lively gossip, latest news, photos, and video.
Who makes the best cupcakes?
My friend Traci Melchor called it Blonde on Blonde Crime on The Social today. I call it White Girl Sh-t. You heard what Martha Stewart said about Gwyneth Paltrow? During an interview with Porter Magazine, Martha was asked about GOOP. Full Story
Blake's FASHION
Blake Lively covers the October issue of FASHION Magazine. The interview happened in May and, since she's not promoting a film, we're presumably here to care about Preserve, aka the Blake Lively lifestyle or the website that's so dark it gives you a headache. Full Story
Oh Gosh, Blake Lively
Blake Lively covers the new issue of MARIE CLAIRE. Everything you expect from a Blake Lively interview is here. She talks about food, a lot. She talks about how her husband is her best friend. Her "greatest joy comes from Canada". She wants to give back to the world. She doesn't drink. Full Story
5 minutes with Blake Lively
Coinciding with the launch of Preserve, the Blake Lively Lifestyle, VOGUE has featured her in the latest installment of 73 Questions. It's a continuous shot and, obviously, the questions were submitted in advance. So what's interesting is that these people have time, maybe too much time, to consider how they answer, because ostensibly they want their answers to impress you. Full Story
Blake Lively's Preserve: a lifestyle analysis
I've been so looking forward to the Preserve launch as I've worked in the digital lifestyle sphere for years, both as a freelance writer and in-house managing editor for Vitamin Daily. I can't remember a website unveiling that has caused such a kerfuffle. Full Story
Blake Lively's Preserve: Anti-GOOP
In its first year, 5% of the profits from Preserve, Blake Lively's new lifestyle site, will go towards Covenant House. It was already established in her VOGUE cover story that Ryan Reynolds's fingerprints would be "all over" her new enterprise. Reynolds has supported Covenant House Vancouver in the past – click here Full Story
Blake's 3rd VOGUE
Here's what I wrote when Lupita Nyong'o covered VOGUE earlier this summer: "As you know, VOGUE doesn't put black women on the cover very often. And when they do, it's Oprah, Michelle Obama, Halle Berry, Beyonce, Rihanna… Now Lupita who just won an Oscar. Full Story
Preserve Blake Lively
That's the name of the Blake Lively Lifestyle, launching next week. Same as Prince Big G's first birthday? Of course not. If Blake knows anything, it's how to make herself a story. She'll make sure she's the only story on the day she reveals her site… Preserve. Full Story
Blake Lively July 23
Andres Otero /WENN
Last year Blake Lively revealed that she was launching a lifestyle website. Page Six reports that the Blake Lively Lifestyle will go live on July 23 featuring "curated fashionable items" with a "focus on artisans and products" selected by Blake. She'll also show up in videos that will be posted on the site. Full Story
What does Beyonce mean?
Kevin Mazur /Chime For/ Getty
Beyonce is on the cover of T, The New York Times style magazine. The profile features a Beyonce photo shoot…but no Beyonce interview. So, she agreed to appear in the publication and, for one reason or another, decided not to speak. Instead the writer discusses the Beyonce phenomenon, Beyonce's footprint on the music industry, on pop culture, on the universe. Full Story
Lupita or Boring?
Wenn, Larry Busacca/ Dimitrios Kambouris/ Mike Coppola/ Getty
Lupita Nyong'o wore something you probably hate to the CFDAs last night. Me? I'm all over it. The makeup. The colours. The shorts/pants. The length of the shorts/pants. I mean, it's a fashion event. Why bother with a strapless ball gown or some forgettable cocktail dress that you couldn't tell apart from everybody else? And especially on the day that it's announced that you'll be in the new Star Wars movie. Full Story
Bond Blake goes for groceries
So there's a rumour going around that Blake Lively is being considered for Bond 24. I think STAR Magazine is behind. And I can understand why this would be an easy make-up-a-story for them. Blake certainly has the assets to be a Bond girl. And it would certainly get her some attention. But the right kind of attention? Blake recently worked on a film called Age Of Adeline. Full Story
Blake's big dress
Dylan's over in Cannes shooting footage for etalk with our host Tanya Kim. They've been sending back some great shots and interviews that will air on the show all week, including some inadvertent (?) gossip I thought you might enjoy. I suppose it's all in the interpretation. So last night we aired our interview with Atom Egoyan who directed Ryan Reynolds in The Captive. Full Story
Blake of Monaco
Andreas Rentz /Pascal Le Segretain /VALERY HACHE /BERTRAND LANGLOIS /ALBERTO PIZZOLI /Getty Images
As expected, Blake Lively accompanied husband to the Cannes premiere of The Captive on Friday night. When I saw her dress, what popped into my head was... Grace Of Monaco, the opening night film, starring Nicole Kidman. Blake was there too. She wore brown-ish wine-colour Gucci. Boring. But can you imagine if she'd chosen this one? I would have liked to see the look on Granny Freeze's face. Full Story

|"Literal Videos" are when you take a music video and sing new lyrics to the
song which describe what is happening in the videos very literally. They have
become an internet fad and I'm proud to say that it all started right here!
|"Take On Me" Oct 3, 2008 +8 million views!
The one that started it all!
"Take On Me" by A-Ha. With it's stylish 80s animation and a pipe wrench fight!
Buy a "Pipe Wrench Fight" t-shirt!
|"Head Over Heels" Oct 14, 2008 +2 million views!
By Tears for Fears.
You remember the song, but do you remember that the video features monkeys with gas-masks, a Rabbi-drummer and Dave Coulier?
|"Under The Bridge" Nov 1, 2008 +1 million views!
By The Red Hot Chili Peppers.
I wanted to see if it would still be funny to do a music video to a newer song that didn't have as goofy of a music video. I think it still worked
(Currently banned from YouTube)
|"White Wedding" Feb 25, 2009 +2 million views!
By Billy Idol.
This one did a number on my vocals chords. Watch Billy sing about his cool glove, his leather pants and the Goth wedding.
|"Loser" Aug 19, 2009 +200k views!
By Beck.
The lyrics to my version almost make more sense than the original! Leave it to Beck to create such a random video... perfect for the literal treatment.
|"China Girl" March 24, 2010 +100k views!
By David Bowie.
Once again you know the song, but do you remember the video? I had a particularly fun time singing this one.
|"Sex and Candy" Nov 19, 2010
By Marcy Playground.
This was the third "literal video" that I wrote, but never thought it was good enough to record. I finally figured what the heck, why not? I used to like this song, but this dumb video was just begging for the literal treatment.
|"Today" March 23, 2011
By Smashing Pumpkins.
The funnest part of making these is doing the impressions of the singers so I've wanted to do a Smashing Pumpkins song for a long time.
|"The Way" August 5, 2012
By Fastball.
Figured it was time to do another one of these, and I wanted to use this to bring awareness to my new YouTube channel.

I don't know if any of the cricket fans on here have been keeping an eye on the twenty20 indian premier league circus that started recently....i've watched some of it on tv and it's been a bit underwhelming apart from a couple of brilliant batting performances.
Well, i'm just amazed at some of the money being splashed about. Initially there was an auction of the players allowing the 8 team franchises to bid for the indian and international players they wanted. Similar to what happens in american sports from what i understand.
In a bidding frenzy one of the teams paid 1.5million US dollars for indian slugger MS Dhoni. In the third round of bidding Australian all-rounder Andrew Symonds fetched 1.35 million, on top of that there's the reported $100,000 a week player contract in the case of symonds.
Symonds is the most explosive batter in one day cricket and in a tournament awash with sponsorship money if you're going to spend that much he's the player you'd buy, but the tournament is scheduled for just 6 weeks, and the australian players have to leave after just two weeks and a handful of matches because of test match commitmnets.
So the team who've bought symonds have spent initially tens of millions for the right to parcipitate in the tournament, in addition to $1.35 million at auction to the BCCI for symonds, and finally $200,000 to symonds for 2 weeks of play. After which he jets off to join the aussie team.
.....one of the teams paid 975,000 dollars for old man sanath jayasuria of sri lanka. A once great one day opener well past his best, as his performances in the tournament so far has proved... And another team paid 900,000 dollars for the most boring batsmen in world cricket - Jacque Kallis. The auction was like fantasy cricket gone mad, with some of the bidders patently having no clue as to what the best price was for each individual player.
I don't know if the 1.35 million secures the services of symonds for forthcoming tournaments. Or whether the auction process happens again next year, or whether there's going to be an additional competition this year..
But i suspect history will remember this tournament as the moment when a lot of people took leave of they're senses.
Good for symonds though, it's about time the top one-day and 2020 players were paid handsomely.

Source: Associated Press
METAIRIE - Saints linebacker Jon Vilma says he's disappointed that the new schedule for bounty hearings virtually prevents him from being able to personally confront his accusers.
Vilma says he wanted to be present for witness interviews with former Saints defensive coordinator Gregg Williams and former defensive assistant Mike Cerullo, who assisted the NFL's investigation into the Saints cash-for-hits pool.
The NFL is responsible for producing Cerullo in Washington, D.C., on Thursday, the same day the Saints play in Atlanta. Williams is scheduled to appear Friday morning.
The schedule was set by former NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue, who was appointed to oversee the latest round of appeal hearings in the matter.
Vilma says he appreciates that Tagliabue is directing the NFL to produce witnesses after the league initially resisted.

Monday's Madame(s): Derrica And Natalie Wilson, Founders Of Black And Missing Foundation
Monday's Madame is a new column on MadameNoire that highlights inspirational women who are doing great things in black communities around the world. If you would like to submit an inspirational woman for consideration, please send her name, age, location, photo, and a blurb about the work she's doing to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Monday's Madame(s): Derrica Wilson And Natalie Wilson
Why they inspire us: Derrica Wilson and her sister-in-law, Natalie Wilson, are the founders of Black and Missing Foundation Inc. (BAMFI). BAMFI is an organization dedicated to bringing awareness to missing persons of color, providing vital resources and tools to missing person's families and friends, and educating the community on personal safety.
Frustrated with the lack of concern for missing black girls such as Tamika Huston, a 24-year-old who vanished from her Spartanburg, SC, apartment in 2004, particularly against the backdrop of the media's coverage of missing white girls like Natalee Holloway, Derrica and Natalie founded the Black and Missing Foundation in 2008. The goal of BAMFI is to serve as advocates for missing people of color, believing that awareness is key in finding our missing and providing much needed closure for their families.
On a daily basis, Derrica and Natalie receive calls from families across the nation asking for help in finding their missing loved ones. The pair works diligently on their behalf, interfacing with law enforcement agencies across the country, the FBI, national media outlets and the families of those missing to help close the attention gap. Since the Black and Missing Foundation's inception, Derrica and Natalie have helped locate or provide closure to the families of more than 125 missing people.

Hide and Seek: "Missing" Bay Area Girl Found Under Grandmother's Bed
Usually, when we do a "black and missing" story, it doesn't have a happy ending. Families and communities live without knowing the whereabouts of their loved ones for years on end. But fortunately, in this case, the story ends quite nicely.
4 year old Amieya Renee Stewart went missing during a family gathering in California. Police and relatives searched for the girl in the home and the surrounding neighborhood until midnight. They stopped at midnight because that's when the little girl was found sleeping underneath her grandmother's bed.
The girl had gone undetected by both family, police and police dogs because she had surrounded hereof with other items.
When Amieya's mother, Christina Nance, spoke to the NBC Bay Area cameras she had this to say:
"I just want to tell everybody thank you. She means a lot to me. I'm sorry that she was in here. I feel like we looked for her really, really good and they had the dogs come in and everything. I'm sorry to put everybody through this, but I'm so happy she's ok and that nothing bad happened to her."
As Nance was interviewed, Amieya buried her bead in the crook of her mother's neck. Later, camera crews recorded the reaction of Amieya's family members learning that she had been found.
Amieya's grandmother said knowing her granddaughter, she suspected that she was playing hide and seek all along. The police told her that they doubted that she'd be able to hide that long.
They were wrong but we're certainly glad they devoted their full attention to help find this little one.
This whole story reminds me of what my sister, friends and I used to do when we weren't ready to leave somebody's house. We knew not to take it this far though. While Amieya just might have a promising career in espionage, we're certainly hoping her mother takes this time to let her know the importance of coming when you're called, even if you've found the best hiding place in the house.
Watch the family react to news that their family member had been found in the video on the next page.
Have You Seen Her? New Orleans School Teacher, Terrilyn Monette Still Missing After 2 Weeks
Terrilynn Monette, the talented New Orleans school teacher who was credited with improving her underperforming elementary school, has been missing for almost two weeks.
Monette, the 26 year old originally from California, was last seen on Saturday, March 2 when she was out with friends celebrating being nominated for "Teacher of the Year" for her district. Apparently, Monette was feeling like she'd had too much to drink and told her friends she was going to go sleep it off in her car parked nearby.
At around 4 am her friends saw that Monette was talking to a man near her car. By sunrise both she and her 2012 black Honda Accord were missing and her cell phone had stopped emitting a signal.
The man she was seen speaking with has been interviewed and the police have ruled him out as a suspect.
Unlike many of the other missing, black men and women, Monette's story seems to be receiving a lot of media coverage.
More than 200 people, including members of Terrilyn's family, her coworkers and volunteers have been searching for Monette along with the police.
Before some of you attempt to blame Monette's disappearance on her "irresponsibility," know that this could happen to any woman, whether she'd been drinking or not.
Recently, CNN aired a piece about Terrilyn.
If you have any information about Terrilyn Monette, please let someone know.
Tragedy: Missing Girl, Jade Morris Found Dead After Casino Stabbing
From Black Voices
The body of 10-year-old Jade Morris was found in a Nevada desert on Thursday, according to family members.
The discovery was made by a man walking his dog near an unfinished housing development in the northern stretches of the Las Vegas Valley, Las Vegas Metro Police said.
Family members told the Black and Missing Foundation that they visually identified the remains for police, who have not yet released a statement positively identifying the body.
Read the statement from the family and the rest of the story surrounding Jade's disappearance and subsequent death at Black Voices.com
Missing Teen Featured on 'The View' Found Hours After Broadcast
The View's new crime segment "Missing Black Children" is serving it's purpose of highlighting African American children who often disappear unnoticed. Last week, a missing New York City teen that was featured on the show was found just hours after the segment was broadcast.
On Friday, an anonymous viewer recognized 16-year-old Mishell DiAmonde Green who was profiled on the show and called in to the Black and Missing Foundation to report her location. The girl was later found at the Safe Horizon shelter for victims of violence in NYC that same day.
Mishell went missing on Sept. 8 when she was on her way to an after-school program in SoHo. According to her mother, Janell Johnson-Dash, "This was her first time going out alone where we weren't going to pick her up, so I trusted her with a set of keys, because I trust her, and a 10 p.m. curfew. You're 16, you can do this. She said, 'Ma I promise I'll be home on time.' She gave my husband a hug and a kiss and we never saw her again," she said on "The View." The next morning she called the police to report her daughter missing.
"They told us, 'Don't worry about it, this type of stuff happens all the time with teenagers. We're pretty sure she'll show up.' And my immediate response was, 'You don't know my baby. This is completely out of character. There's no way in the world that she would just stay out.'"
Months went by with no leads as police classified Mishell as a runaway rather than a missing person. Thanks to "The View" the mother and daughter have been reunited.
"We thank all who lifted your hearts and voices in prayer, who posted reports, who told about her disappearance, who called us with suggestions, and who were there," Green's family said in a statement."Thank you to 'The View' for providing a platform that gave Mishell's story the media attention needed for her recovery."
Mishell and her family are expected to appear on "The View" today to discuss her recovery and what happened when she went missing. But for the family, the most important thing is that "Mishell is safe and out of harm's way."

Missing Black Woman Receives NO Media Coverage for 5 Months
When white women go missing, it's a cause for national concern. The nation learns their names and vital information about their lives before they disappeared.
When a black woman goes missing, usually the local news covers the story.
Unfortunately, this wasn't the case for thirty-five-year-old Shandell McLeod of Georgia. McLeod had been missing for five months before the media started covering her absence.
Find out what information they do have on McLeod and what her family has to say about the lack of media coverage at theGrio.com.

Let's create a list of features -- your "wish" list -- and we will keep re-editing this list as new ideas surface. Some of this info repeats the earlier listing, but this entry will be the edited and re-edited as the definitive input from your comments. (And soon -- but not yet -- we're all going to work together to put these in some kind of priority order.) Hang on:
1) Confused by the random avatar.
2) Wish you could select from a set of prebuilt avatars instead of uploading.
3) Prevent gaming the system by multiple self-voting (i.e. Helpful) in Reviewer pages;
4) Worried these new features will slow down the site experience
5) Sort Movie Reviews by Similarity % (or by date, or by pretty much anything)
6) Be able to find people with high similarity (e.g. the top 5 people similar to me), and hang onto people you've found.
7) Need to edit/delete reviews beyond first page;
8) Email notifications of major changes at the website
9) Able to add movies to Custom Lists directly from the movie page
10) Why truncate nicknames? Why 13 characters?
11) Miss the personal description (bio) part of Profiles
12) Changing the order of movies in Custom Lists (*isn't working)
13) Custom Lists problems adding some titles (ie. need a "MORE" button if the title you want doesn't come up first)
14) Message boards on various movie topics so folks w/o Friends can still chat etc.
1) Average ratings for you and each of your Friends;
2) Loved by your Friends and Recommended for you suggestions;
3) An Overview page for each Friend, not just ratings or queue;
4) Edit/Delete Movie Notes with your Friends
5) Disable/control email notices about Movie Notes being created
6) Film level privacy control -- to hide certain movies from Friends or others
7) Persistent notes (a la the old MiniReviews) such that new Friends can see old notes.
8) Notebook organization a bit wonky, and should include more info from the Friends Activity (ie ratings, etc that are mentioned in F.A.) and ability to sort or view only received notes.
9) Options for faster loading of Friends detail pages (ie Queue, Ratings)
10) Hide real name (and location) from Friends. In other words, allow "anonymous" Friends.
11) Bring back the "Purple Dude" icon
1) Confusing UI with the tabs, subtabs, side nav
2) Visual (spacing) confusion with the wider pages and the new sidebar
3) Better info/filmography (more complete) on actor/director pages
You may notice i'm not listing "non-community" oriented features, but trust that the appropriate people are seeing your ideas, even if they don't get addressed here directly.
We here at Netflix think about these things every day, all day. I can see that some of you do too. I'm somewhat reminded of the adage "many hands make light work" which does seem to apply to online communities. (I wish I could invite everyone over to help me with my yardwork.)You guys are great help. Thank you.

BACnet to Modbus Gateway & Converter
Cost effective, easy-to-use BTL Marked gateway to interface BACnet IP and Modbus TCP (Modbus TCP/IP), QuickServer can emulate BACnet as either a server or client. BACnet COV support for fast data communication while reducing traffic over a BACnet network. QuickServer supports multiple BACnet data types. QuickServer can act as a Modbus Client or Server and follows the Modbus-IDA specifications. In order to meet the needs of all Modbus users, the QuickServer Modbus TCP driver uses three models, 1) Modicon_5digit where addresses are defined in the 0xxxx, 3xxxx or 4xxxx formate with a maximum of 999 registers that can be mapped of each type, 2) ADU Application Data Unit address where addresses of each type are defined in the range 1-65536, or 3) PDU Protocol Data Unit address where addresses of each type are defined in that range 0-65535.
BACnet to LonWorks Gateway & Converter
A multiport, high-capacity, feature-rich, proven LonMark Certified gateway interfacing BACnet/IP and LonWorks, the QuickServer Gateway can emulate BACnet as either a server or client. BACnet COV support for fast data communication while reducing traffic over a BACnet network. The FS-B35 Series FieldServer BACnet/IP - LonWorks gateway supports multiple BACnet data types. FieldServer can handle up to 1000 points in the basic configuration with LonWorks port plus multiple serial and Ethernet ports. LonWorks data transfer is via two basic functional blocks, Input and Output allowing Float and Word SNVT data types. The FS-B35 series can handle up to 4096 Network Variables which can be LonWorks Standard Network Variable Types (SNVT) and/or User-defined Network Variable Types (UNVT). Can be used with LonWorks explicit and/or implicit addressing and can be bound with up to 15 other LonWorks nodes.
BACnet to KNX Gateway & Converter
FieldServer's QuickServer gateway interfaces KNX with BACnet. QuickServer can emulate BACnet as either a server or client, including BACnet support for fast data communication. The device supports multiple BACnet data types and can transfer data (Network Variables) in two ways: 1) by polling other devices at regular intervals; or 2) by sending Network Variable updates at regular intervals, when data has changed, or, in throttled mode, using maximum and minimum send time and change on delta parameters.
QuickServer BACnet MS/TP to Metasys N2 by JCI
Proven, cost-effective, BTL Marked gateway interfacing BACnet MS/TP and Metasys N2 by Johnson Controls. BACnet COV support for fast data communication while reducing traffic over a BACnet network. QuickServer supports multiple BACnet data types. Able to interface up to 250 points (500 points with enhanced model) with multi-configuration capability.
FieldServer Technologies' Commitment to BACnet
As an early adapter of BACnet and charter member of BACnet International, .FieldServer Technologies has been very committed to the BACnet world since the late 90's, with ongoing updates to our implementation of BACnet objects and services in support of customers. FieldServer has recently added Trend Log objects to their BACnet offering, which allow on-device logging of customer-selected values.
The FieldServer can act as a BACnet client or BACnet server, or both. This is extremely useful when bridging between BACnet IP and BACnet MS/TP networks, where the FieldServer can act as a data cache, shielding the low bandwidth MS/TP network from the high-bandwidth IP network while allowing high-throughput SCADA updates.
FieldServer has prioritized support of BACnet services that achieve fast response times while keeping bandwidth utilization low. This is achieved through the following BACnet services:
- Event Notifications (Intrinsic Alarms)
- COV Notifications
- WritePropertyMultiple
- ReadPropertyMultiple
FieldServer supports the creation of multiple virtual BACnet devices on a single physical device. This allows for an intuitive mapping of a field network containing many devices into a BACnet interface with a corresponding selection of devices.
FieldServer continues to have its BACnet implementation go through BTL (BACnet Test Laboratory) approval to ensure international acceptance. The latest BACnet implementation is currently going through BTL testing.
Applications using FieldServer BACnet solutions :
- Interfacing Caterpillar generators to BACnet IP at the South Pole
- FieldServer as the key player enabling University of Arizona to link multiple networks to BACnet/IP backbone
- Linking EST3 Fire Alarm Control Panels to BACnet network
- Computer Room Air Handling
FieldServer Technologies BACnet Protocol Implementation Conformance (PIC) Statements
- FieldServer Technologies gateways - FS-B20, FS-B25, FS-B30, FS-B40, SlotServer series
- FieldServer Technologies gateways - QuickServer
- ProtoCessor ProtoNode and ProtoCarrier
BACnet Testing Laboratories
BACnet International established the BACnet Testing Laboratories to publish the BTL Implementation Guidelines and to test products to be awared the BTL mark. The BTL mark is a
|BTL Marked Products
|QuickServer FS-QS-1010
|ProtoNode RER
|ProtoCarrier FPC-CD2
symbol that indicates to a consumer that a product has passed a series of rigorous tests conducted by an independent laboratory which verifies that the product correctly implements the BACnet features claimed in the listing. The mark is a symbol of a high-quality BACnet product. For more information about the BACnet Testing Laboratories go to: http://www.bacnetinternational.net/btl/
The QuickServer FS-QS-1010, ProtoNode RER and ProtoCarrier/ProtoCessor FPC-CD2 have been awarded the BTL Mark for both BACnet/IP and BACnet MS/TP.
BACnet Protocol
BACnet is "a data communication protocol for building automation and control networks." A data communication protocol is a set of rules developed by the BACnet committee at ASHRAE governing the exchange of data over a computer network. The rules take the form of a written specification that spells out what is required to conform to the protocol.
There are 5 different options for BACnet, each of which fills a particular niche in terms of the price/performance tradeoff. The first is Ethernet, the fastest at 10 Mbps with 100 Mbps also recently available. ("Mbps" stands for "millions of bits per second.") Ethernet is also likely to be the most expensive in terms of cost per device.
There are two forms of BACnet for Ethernet. One is called BACnet Ethernet for dedicated BACnet lines and there is also a BACnet for TCP called BACnet IP which can run on a non-dedicated Ethernet line. Next comes BACnet ARCNET at 2.5 Mbps. Both Ethernet and ARCNET can use a variety of physical media ñ coaxial cable, twisted pairs, even fiber optic cable.
For devices with lower requirements in terms of speed, BACnet defines the BACnet MS/TP (master-slave/token-passing) network designed to run at speeds of 1 Mbps or less over twisted pair wiring (RS-485). All of these networks are examples of "local area networks" or LANs. BACnet also defines a dial-up or "point-to-point" protocol called BACnet PTP for use over phone lines or hardwired RS-232 connections. A key point is that BACnet messages can, in principle, be transported by any network technology, if and when it becomes cost-effective to do so and FieldServer Technologies has the drivers available for all forms of BACnet.
