Comments Wanted on NFPA Security Standards
December 14, 2011
The APPA Code Advocacy Task Force will be preparing proposals for new safety concepts for the 2014 editions of the following two related documents issued by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA):
- NFPA 730 - Guide on Premises Security. This guide describes construction, protection, occupancy features, and practices intended to reduce security vulnerabilities to life and property.
- NFPA 731 - Standard for the Installation of Electronic Premises Security Systems. This standard covers the application, location, installation, performance, testing, and maintenance of electronic premises security systems and their components.
Comments are due to NFPA by January 4, 2012. APPA, the association of higher education facilities professionals, encourages NACUBO members with any suggestions for safety or product performance concepts that should be included in these documents to communicate with APPA's Task Force (see contact information below) as soon as possible.
As has been discussed in APPA's Code Talker column (Facilities Manager, May-June 2011) these are the most practical documents for campus security for higher education. There are many campus security documents that are being developed by ad hoc committees throughout the U.S., but only NFPA 730 and 731 have been developed according to a process recognized by the American National Standards Institute.
Over the past two years, APPA's Code Advocacy Task Force has had success in making changes to these documents. Prospective concepts for the 2014 revision being developed by the Code Advocacy Task Force will take into consideration recent leading practices that appear in other related documents:
- A Risk Analysis Standard for Natural and Man‐Made Hazards to Higher Education Institutions (American Society of Mechanical Engineers)
- Societal Security ISO/223 (International Standards Organization)
- NFPA 1600 Standard on Disaster/Emergency Management and Business Continuity Programs (National Fire Protection Association)
Managing large, complex, capital-intensive educational facility infrastructure assets with unique architectural and social identities is different from managing other asset classes. Differences in everything from department culture to annual facility use patterns mean that facility managers cannot implement the same safety approaches in all buildings. Approaches must be scaled and tailored to the occupancy type and informed by the interconnectedness and the specifics of a given facility.
The individuals listed below are leading this effort for APPA. They would appreciate input from campuses of all types and can also assist you in obtaining copies of NFPA 730 and/or 731 if needed. They are willing to provide assistance if your institution would like to submit a proposal directly to NFPA.

MP, South West Wiltshire

Andrew Murrison hardly ever rebelled against their party in this parliament
Voluntary sector organisations provide invaluable support for those whose lives have been changed forever as a result of Northern Ireland's troubled past. I have visited some of them and I pay tribute to their work, which I know from my dealings with victims and their families is deeply appreciated by many in Northern Ireland and beyond.
Yes, and I pay tribute once again to my hon. Friend's contribution to this and his support for the Warrington peace centre and its important work. It is explicit in the Stormont agreement that the oral history archive will be established for the whole of the United Kingdom, and it will be keen to hear the accounts of the troubles of people in Warrington and throughout the United...
As the right hon. Gentleman will know, because he will have read the Stormont agreement, this item was left largely unresolved, although open. I am afraid to say that the problem revolves around the definition of victims, notwithstanding the 2006 order. That is work in hand and it is something that we will have to return to.

This was an impulse buy. I live in a humid climate, so the idea of using this was appealing. It's not cheap, but I wouldn't say it was expensive either.
This was worth every penny though. I love the fresh feelings it gives me. I spray this onto my face whenever I feel like my skin is dehydrated. And it has become my skincare routine to spray this onto my face after cleansing and toning. I spray this to my face and then apply moisturizer while the face is still damp. It feels wonderful, and the skin is really moisturized.
I do want to try other brands such as Vichy and especially La Roche Posay as I am big fan of LRP. But right now I am loving this.

When I moved to Canada, in the middle of the -20ºC winter, my imperfections-prone skin got very dehydrated. That's when I both an Avéne cream for dry skin and the store had a promotion so they gave me a full kit, including a small box of thermal water.
I've never tried thermal water before, although I heard about it. It calmed down my redness and my sensitive cheeks. Also makes my complexion brighter (maybe because it decreases redness) and more luminous.
It's doesn't make a huge difference, but I would say it is a very nice extra to my skincare routine. Now that the sample bottle is almost done I'm thinking of buying the big one.

Spraying mineral water on one's face is a beauty ritual for European ladies. Aside from that, I loved this particular water.
It's a very light and fresh product - I do realize it's "just water" but it's thermal water and it doesn't smell funny (like so many others do) and it's really very soothing and refreshing for dry and sensitive skins.
Particularly, I find it to be just perfect for when your skin is red and irritated but it's too hot to put on a soothing cream.
It's part of my beauty essentials :)
Age: 30-35

Its water. In a can. I could pretty much leave my review at that for all the good this product did me. I tried it for 2 months and I saw NO difference whatsoever in my skin. I could have got the same effect by just shooting the shower head at my face or simply washing my face. I'm sorry I think this product is a huge rip off :(
Age: 36-43
Skin: Combination, Fair, Cool
Hair: Blond, Straight, Fine

I can't believe how this leaves my skin so soft and healthy looking. After I wash my face I spritz this on and let it dry then moisturize as usual. Very nice light scent too.

high recommend to sensitive skin and who will feel uncomfortable as well such guys easily to break out. It made me skin so stable and comfortable. I often used it as a hydrating mask when I at home or take out as a emergency product when my skin tells me I need to use this stuff,lol. It is so natural and must be suitable to everyone!

Honestly, I don't know if this is better than any other mineral water because I've never bought a spray water before; I thought it was total nonsense. If I want to use water on my face, I'd go and have a shower.
That's what I used to think anyway. Now this Avene spray is becoming pretty much indispensable. I've taken to spraying it heavily on my face when I get home from work, because the first time I did it I couldn't believe it; I sprayed it on, rubbed it in, wiped it off with a white tissue, looked at the tissue and nearly fainted. I don't wear makeup to work, on a day to day basis, and yet the tissue was coming off filthy: dirt and dust from the day that was just hanging out on my face, waiting to give me acne. So now I'm religious about it; it's the first thing I do when I get home. it means I don't have to wash my face three times a day too, which helps my skin.
does it work better than normal water? no idea. all i know is avene feels nice, it seems to remove dirt and grease, it leaves my skin soft and calm and it feels good. expensive, yes, but i'll pay for all of those things. :)
definitely encorporated into my cleaning routine. (I have the teeny bottle, but my best friend carries around the full on massive one in her handbag. that's how much she likes it.)

I was one of those people who never understood how these "pschitt" waters were supposed to be used, or if they did any good. I decided to tackle the issue, and started to incorporate it into my routine when I found "designer" Evian sprays on sale for a euro.
It didn't seem to do much, and on impulse, after trying and liking Eluage cream, to buy a mini Avene thermal water spray. And that's when I saw the difference.
I didn't actually realize that my skin was so sensitive, until I started using products (like Avene) that calmed it down. I've always had imperfection-prone skin- always have a pimple or two, if not more, and they take forever to heal (if I fiddle with them, forget it) and they leave scars that take years to fade. If they ever do. As I'm now over 40, I'm starting to get wrinkles, and I live in a place where the winter is harsh and for the first time, my skin is dehydrated.
I remove my makeup with micellaire water first, and you're supposed to not leave it on your face (even though it always says "don't rinse" on the bottle). And regular tap water is often too harsh (and it definitely is where I live, extremely hard water- when I first moved here my hair and skin went haywire) so you're supposed to use this to re-balance your skin/ph level, and all that, after any product/face washing. And Avene thermal spray really REALLY makes a difference on my skin. I go from splotchy, with any imperfections feeling and looking worse, to having a clear face in just a few minutes, it's absolutely amazing! I mean, I never thought it was possible, first of all, and it's so ridiculously basic.
Method: (mine, anyway, and what I've been told by "experts" (French women with perfect skin :)) You need to spritz your whole face until your face is almost dripping. Then you DON'T TOUCH IT. Just let it sit there and sink in and dry. Then proceed to do whatever you normally do- in my case, serum, moisturizer, makeup.
This gives my face a smooth, clear, poreless tautness that is just wonderful for starting skin care and makeup routines. It's really like blank canvas rather than damage control!
Sometimes, after finishing my makeup I will do the lightest pschitt to "naturalize" my face, if I feel that maybe it's just a bit too stiff, which happens if I'm cold or tired or I've used too heavy a hand for some reason. For this I find it's best to hold it the can a distance from your face, press just for a nano-second, and walk into the light mist for the best result, and just once is fine. (Too much or too heavy or too direct a mist and it can spot or wash your makeup.)
I'll use it on my eyes first thing in the morning, too, it's extremely refreshing, and cleans and clears the whole area.
It's also the first thing I reach for in my locker after a work out, and especially after the sauna.
It has really saved my skin. I don't know if other waters work as well- I've only tried Evian, and I don't get the impression it's AS good- and Avene is cheaper than Roche Posay (in the class of thermal waters) so I've had no reason to switch for the moment.
This was the missing link, and now that I've found it, everything works, so obviously will repurchase again and again :)

really nice spray! you can get this in three different sizes, big, medium and small, wich is nice, so you can take a mini spray when your travelling etc. it soothes my skin and makes it really glow! i use this to set my makeup and just cool and freshen up my face when i feel hot or sweaty. i feel this to be better than Fix +, this feels to do good stuff for my skin.

I was using Avene spray before, but I've been told by a friend (her roomate is a dermatologist living in france) that it is not too different from tap water, coz very few minerals. =( I switched to Uriage spray: you can tell the difference, my skin is much better! I use it after showering to avoid contact with towels, I spray and let it cas, as recommanded (I have very sensitive skin) & after waxing. I liked Avene's packaging better though!

The University of Baltimore set clear sustainability goals when it began planning its new law school building.
Models of Efficiency recognizes institutions exhibiting best practices in their efforts to increase efficiency, improve productivity and leverage existing resources.
There exist an endless number of articles, books, blogs, and interviews on the state of higher education (HE) in America.
Once again this July, recent Models of Efficiency honorees were recognized during the NACUBO conference at an awards dinner hosted by Higher One, the program's sponsor. This year, award recipients were honored at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse in Seattle.
Despite technology's critical role in higher ed, there remains a gap between central IT and the rest of campus that can lead to unnecessary spending.
Our Models of Efficiency award-winners have already proven they can make better use of resources while simultaneously enhancing service. For most honorees, these innovations are the start of a process of continuous improvement that impacts the entire campus community.
To confront today's financial challenges, every college and university needs to create more operational efficiency. Some of these efficiencies start in the business office.
The remodel of a dining hall at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro was going to displace more than 5,000 student mailboxes.
For years, new student orientation at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University in Florida required the creation of information packets that were labeled with stickers and contained as many as 10 sheets of paper.
Streamlining the awarding and processing of student loans—Federal Perkins as well as institutional loans—began at the Illinois Institute of Technology with a simple question and a frustrating answer.
Historically, Western Michigan University's 12 on-staff recruiters could visit as many as 40 or 50 high schools in a week and collect up to 1,000 paper cards filled with prospective students' contact information.
As long as there are assignments for college students to research and write, it's likely there will be copiers and printers to help.
Many of Pepperdine University's administrative offices are located on a campus that sits on a steep, picturesque hilltop in the Southern California beach town of Malibu. Perhaps because of the hike required to reach the offices, intracampus mail delivery is a challenge.
No one disputes that the management of the seven units housed under the Drexel Business Services (DBS) department worked hard. The units generate $68 million in revenue, $38 million in expenses and $5 million in expense recovery annually for the Philadelphia-based institutions.

Toshiba Folio 100 Tablet Runs Google's Android 2.2
Toshiba Folio 100 Tablet Runs Google's Android 2.2
Nathan Eddy
Posted 2010-09-04
Fast on the heels of Samsung's Galaxy Tab tablet annoucement, Toshiba debuts its own tablet device, the Google Android-powered Folio 100.
Computer maker Toshiba Europe introduced its media tablet, the Folio 100, a 10.1-inch touch screen device that the company said is being targeted at users looking for a portable and versatile computer. The tablet comes with a selection of apps and services dedicated to media consumption, Web browsing and social networking, and sports an intuitive graphical interface developed by Toshiba to run on top of Android 2.2 (Froyo). The Folio 100, which will retail for ?ö?®??399, or roughly $500, will be available during the fourth quarter of 2010 throughout Europe, Middle East and Africa, according to a company release. Offering a range of connectivity options, the Folio 100 is equipped with an SD card slot, an HDMI connector, USB 2.0, WiFi and Bluetooth, while a Mobile Broadband (3G) ready version is planned to follow soon. The tablet also features a Nvidia TegraTM 2 processor and boasts a battery life of up to seven hours. A 16GB on-board storage hosts music, videos, photos, e-mails and other data and is also expandable via SD card. Toshiba has also already established a destination for developers where they can get support to optimize their apps for the tablet.
"Our Folio 100 media tablet offers a seamless, easy-to-use experience across entertainment, social networking and mobile Internet-anytime and anywhere," said Marco Perino, general manager of digital life products and services at the company. "We encourage users and developers to join our Folio 100 eco system to create and offer apps, games and other content for Folio 100."
The tablet also features Toshiba Market Place, a service that offers access to various download choices for multimedia content, services and apps. Music Place, powered by 7Digital, offers access to a catalogue of music and allows syncing to a choice of devices. Radio Place gives access to a selection of IP radio services. Through the App Place, users are able to download applications compatible to the Folio 100. The Folio 100 also ships with a selection of applications preinstalled, including the Opera Mobile Web browser, FBReader, an e-book reader, Document To Go, the tablet's office suite, Evernote notes, Adobe Flash 10.1 and Fring, an app that in combination with the embedded Web cam allows video calls. The announcement follows a release earlier this week from Samsung, whose Galaxy Tab tablet computer fits in between Apple's iPad and the company's popular iPhone smartphone. A 7-inch display allows users to communicate via e-mail, voice and video call, SMS/MMS, or social networks such as Facebook and Twitter. Supporting the latest Adobe Flash Player 10.1, the tablet also features a "Readers Hub," Samsung's e-reading application, as well as a media application, a gateway to films and videos, and a digital music application.
Toshiba also had some less positive news today: The company
a voluntary recall of its Satellite T135, Satellite T135D and Satellite ProT130 notebooks, which are being recalled due to overheating that could cause damage to the notebooks and burn the users. Toshiba has received 129 reports of the notebook computers overheating and deforming the plastic casing area around the AC adapter plug, including two reports of minor burn injuries that did not require medical attention and two reports of minor property damage.

Lisa Pelo of "Hot Blown Glass" in Clayton, Indiana enjoys the fast-paced creativity involved in creating her glass art
MFA painters at IU got a nuts-and-bolts education about the job of being an artist when they mounted an exhibition at a New York gallery this summer.
Even in his purely abstract paintings, Etienne engages the mystery and longing of looking into the distance without being able to physically travel there.
With their Geolocation project, artists Nate Larson and Marni Shindelman find a portal within the virtual landscape that leads back to real life.
Light Totem was designed to help promote the art museum, and perhaps offer the excuse for an after-dinner stroll. Expectations were quickly exceeded.
Mark Smith reached out to his fellow soldiers and asked them to send him their pictures of their time in Iraq. He then painted those images.
Elements of play and creative thinking have been incorporated to enhance the success of the youngest learners at Bloomington's Fairview Elementary.
Basement studios joined established art spaces to host visitors for the third annual Bloomington Open Studios Tour last weekend.
Book artist Mary Uthuppuru consistently returns to the concept of the book as a physical, mechanical object—not simply a vehicle for information.
Some people drop everything to pursue a dream. Painter Joel Washington, however, keeps his day job to fuel his passion.

The English version of Bravely Default is scheduled to come out in Europe sometime this year and Nintendo has just released a trailer to help hype up the release. The English version will be based on the Japanese Bravely Default: For the Sequel which has several improvements to the game, including extra graphics polish, animated characters during conversations, and a better user interface.
Advanced difficulty settings will also be included in this version and the new English audio tracks can be replaced with their original Japanese audio if you prefer. For this release, players will also be able to change the on-screen text to French, Italian, German or Spanish. Currently there's no concrete release date for the European version and the North American version is expected to release sometime in 2014.

Value Addon Review : Best Membership Software for Newbies !
Joshua Writer & JVZoo.com has just announced the launch of Value Addon for selling online courses.
Value Addon is the latest membership solution from JVZoo.com, which helps user to build membership website in just a few minutes. This amazing membership product is co-owned by JVZoo.com and is as well the "Official Membership Platform" for the entire JVZoo community.
In comparison with similar membership solution providers such as Kajabi, WishList, DAP… and so on, Value Addon really is easy and just usually takes few minutes to setup almost everything a user needs to have a ready-to-sell membership website.
Did you know that a whopping 93% of TOP marketers have used a membership site to sell online courses and digital content? Why am I telling you this? Because I want you to follow in the footsteps of greatness and you need to be aware that membership sites are still one of the most profitable ways to make money online… PERIOD!
Every TOP marketer has sold an online course, an online training program, or sold their "expertise" for money. Internet moguls like Ryan Deiss, Russell Brunson, Frank Kern, Mike Filsaime are using membership sites right now to make millions! And that's where Value Addon comes in. Value Addon make's it simple for ANYONE to sell online courses and profit from their knowledge.
Value Addon has everything you need:
– Built-in shopping cart AND merchant account (Instant approval and setup with NO Monthly fees)
– Comes fully hosted on Amazon S3 and installed for you.
– Built-in sales page creator.
– Integrates with 3rd-party email tools like GetResponse, Aweber, MailChimp, InfusionSoft and more.
– Simple "Drag and Drop" content creator for adding all your online courses.
– Integrates with FaceBook so you can run PAID Facebook Groups.
– Completely whitelabel-able. Build membership sites for your clients within minutes.
– And more… Takes 15 minutes for your 1st site to be setup and ready to take orders.
I remember when selling courses online and building membership sites was a pain in the ***. However, with Value Addon, literally anyone can do it. Back "in my day" there was a TON of steps that were required before you could sell anything online.
Those steps included things like:
– Buying domains, get hosting, and install wordpress.
– Configuring wordpress and installing more plugins… that needed more configuration.. Yuck!
– Uploading my content to sites like YouTube so I could embed it back into my site.
– Creating login pages, registration pages, and thank you pages by hand….
– Signing up for a merchant account, waiting to get approved, configuring my own shopping cart, then integrating my payment links into my wordpress site. Yuck again!
– And if I even got that far, I would still need to hire a graphic designer, build a sales page, hire a copywriter, then pay my programmer to make sure everything worked.
And this took weeks if not months…. But EVERYTHING has changed since Value Addon came out.
With Value Addon, ALL those things are handled for you. All you need to complete is 3 SIMPLE steps.
- Upload your content
- Set your prices
- Publish your built-in sales page
- Top-Notch Quality as it Co-Owned by JVZoo.com
- Fully hosted and comes pre-installed
- Built-in shopping cart and pre-approved merchant account.
- Built-in "Fill-in-The-Blanks" sales page creator.
- Beautiful looking members area.
- Takes only MINUTES to get started.
- Recurring Subscription
I've tried the demo of Value Addon and all I can says is "Wow!" This service is top notch and I can see why its been in development for over a year. No more confusing wordpress scripts to fuss with. No more messing with login pages, registration pages, and building thank you pages. No more integrating clunky payment buttons, signing up for video hosting and so on… Value Addon takes care of ALL this and more AUTOMATICALLY.
If you still not convinced then… Ask yourself the following questions :-
- Do you want a membership website thats easy to run?
- You want to make recurring income with your members and clients?
- Do you want to be able sell online courses within minutes?
- Do you want to be able to be able to charge people for building THEIR membership sites?
If so, then you owe it to yourself to check out Value Addon right away, and Kick off 2015 with a bang by finally selling your content and making money with your expertise. Now you don't have any excuses since Value Addon makes it so simple. Take my word and don't waste your time with outdated tools and complicated options that waste your time. Use Value Addon and have your site setup in no time. That's my advice!
Under this Bonus, I will setup your Membership Website using Value Addon. The service includes Account Setup and configuration, Shopping cart configuration, Sales Page Customization, Uploading/Organizing Content, Essentials Page setup, etc.
So, what are you waiting for ,… because NOW is the time to grab your copy – before the price sky-rockets! This special discounted pricing WILL NOT happen ever again. Please note that after their launch price stops, regular prices will be put back online. So, Decide now…

Before they meet with President Obama tomorrow on the border crisis, the presidents of Honduras and Guatemala are out making their positions known today.
The two presidents come to the U.S. to address the flow of migrant children at the southern border, taking to Capitol Hill to meet with congressmen, and speaking at an event hosted by the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
Honduras President Juan Orlando Hernandez said via a translator that while drug trafficking and lack of opportunity were the first cause of immigration, "ambiguity that has been the hallmark of the debate" over U.S. immigration reform has also been a factor.

Pre-Teens Account for Sharpest Spike in Unaccompanied Child Migrants
"Here we have to say the coyotes, the smugglers, who are very much a part or organized crime networks perversely have sought to exploit those ambiguities," he said. "And peddle a mistake…a totally wrong interpretation to the parents of these children and saying "You can get your kids into the U.S., we can do it for you."
The president, only six months into his term, also said while they assume responsibility and share it with other Central American countries, it must also be a shared responsibility with the United States. He cited the successes of operations in Columbia and Mexico (Columbia Plan and Mérida Plan) as a root cause of the problem they are faced with today.
"A number of drug lords that have now settled in Central America and that have now linked up with…gangs in an unholy alliance as it were that has generated levels of violence that are unprecedented," Hernandez said. "So what has helped Mexico, what has helped Colombia, alas has created a problem of gigantic proportions for us."
Calling the smugglers the "human face of an enormous criminal monster that has one foot firmly in the camps of the drug lords and in Central America" but the second foot "in the United States under American jurisdiction."
"Central America is on the very root between those who produce drugs and those who consume drugs massively," Hernandez said. "You'll see clearly in Honduras that most of the children have come from the most dangerous areas of our country, where drug lords and gangs are at the root of the greatest levels of violence."
Honduras is the number one murder capital in the world.
President Otto Perez Molina of Guatemala echoed a similar sentiment.
"Once again countries of Central America became transit corridors or warehouses for the drugs reaching the United States," he said. "Between 2003 and 2013 we have seized 50,000 arms; 50,000 arms…which for the most part, come from the United States."
And while Perez Molina said they have taken many steps in the 2.5 years he has been in office in reducing the violence and improving conditions in their country, investment from the United States could help the situation and the country.
"For the countries of Central America, the closeness with the USA is a closeness that we would like to view as a strength," he said. "And we need the investment. We need the opportunity to create employment. And that will prevent for the need of the U.S. to have to invest the border patrolling, border security, border controls and the money that is invested in border processes."
Hernandez of Honduras says his message to the people of the United States is to first remember "we are talking about children but as children, as minors, they are the most vulnerable and this should catch the attention and pull at the heartstrings of humanity at large."

adds nice dimension to the kitchen.
This is a great inexpensive light for a moderately sized kitchen. There's a dimmer on it which makes for ambient light if needed. Very easy to install.

Verizon's budget-conscious QWERTY lovers should consider the Enact, but if cost isn't an issue, the Motorola Droid 4 is the better phone.
With the 4G LTE enabled LG Enact from Verizon, not only will you get a 4-inch touchscreen and a 5-megapixel camera -- you'll also be able to type away on a five-row QWERTY keyboard.
Sporting a sliding keyboard, a 4-inch touch screen, and a dual-core processor, the LG Enact is a QWERTY handset bargain for Verizon customers.
Rumored to arrive in short order, the LG smartphone features the now rarely used sliding QWERTY form factor.

Your site is the best. There's not that many old school companies left. And I'm glad that Powell-Peralta is still around. Thanx for still existing.
— James Cox
Due to the Re-issues coming out! I have taken up skateboarding again after a 10year break (motor x and then cars and girls, put my life on hold) but I'm back now ...,.ripping it on my ripper,I dare anyone who was a serious skater back in the day not to buy and set one up! its amazing how after an hour on my re-issue I was back no top form - like i had never stopped -skating half pipe ramps is now something I think about and do ,allot,all because of POWELL PERALTA RE-ISSUE,video games and listening to music is great,but lets not get too carried away!Skateboarding is a cheap hobby and very social! Please bring out the claw graphic out again, I smashed my teeth out on one like that back in the day! lol Respect to all the old school skaters.SK8 ON!!!!
— leo
I've been getting back into skating since a 15 year break. This past year, I must have bought 3 new generation decks. But none of them compare to the original bones brigade decks. My favorite, Tommy's Dagger, Bonite XT. Any chance of reprinting on maple or re-making this deck with Bonite+Maple (XT)? And keep up the great work, you guy are great.
— Dan Nimitz
I used to surf the concrete riding my Per Welinder board for years replacing it every now and then when it got too ragged or broke. I'd pick up Powell stickers religiously because you guys had some of the sickest designs. My parents loved it because I was outside doing something active and staying healthy. I'm older now and onto other things like weight lifting/bodybuilding to stay healthy, but I still enjoy the sport. I hope that some day you will issue some of the older Powell symbols on t-shirts in XXL for guys like me. Some of us older guys like to revisit our youth and your company has certainly played a major role in mine.
— S. Anton
Thanks for re-issuing the Jay Smith board. I used to ride a blue concave at Texas Pipeline Skate park, after it was closed of course! Got mine on order!!
— robert wecker
Awesome to see my childhood skates are back! I would LOVE to see and buy a Mullen chess board freestyle re-issue. Nothing beats the old school!
— Daniel Holguin
What up, just found your web page and it hive me a lot o pleasure to know that powell-peralta it steel around!! the only boards i ride when i was young!! i'm 32 now but still i have a rush when i see a skate board competition on tv. good times...
— Alex R
Make josh hawkins pro!! that 3 flip was one of the craziest things ive ever seen
— jake wittak
You guys rock !!! At age 30, I finally got my dream setup.... Street Cab deck, Indy trucks, Bones bearings and reissued Aussie Cockroach wheels.... I'm in Skate Heaven, Thank you.
— Ash
Your G Bones White are so smooooooooooooth in da pool and ramp. they rok.
— jed emont
Awesome site, brings back fond memories i still have a second edition tony hawk board with independent trucks, rat bones and swiss bearings that i got from ron jons surf shop cocoa beach florida thanks for the memories.
— ben davenport
Would love to see re-pressings of the old Hawk / Mountain boards... so many great memories tied up in those pieces. Please, make it so!
— Christian
Thanks so much for the reissues, I had the Steve Steadham board back in high school 1986. I used to keep it my car at all times until my car got stolen in 1995 and unfortunately they took my board, they could have kept my car, I just wanted my board back. I just bought the reissue of the Steadham, Skull & Sword, Ripper, and the 30th Anniversary. Thanks again,
— Joe Torrance
I am glad to see that skateboarding has made a huge comeback. The art, the sun the fun. What they tried to take away in the late 80's is back! My last deck was the Underhill cross, removed from my feet by a grotesquely obese security guard at the local shopping center. please if you could release the old vert decks, HAWK, UNDERHILL, and yes like the lad in Estonia I would like to see the Welinder reissued also. Thank you for the decades of fun!!!!
— rob
I'm at lost for words. F--- n rad! It has been a long time since I have had anything from my past feel totally rad!!! Way too often memories start off good but end up in more f---n pain that lead too block n it out. By just not being what I dreamed of. Your Powell Classic site pictures, gallery, have open up that gut turning fire that drives us when we were young. When scoring a ride to the skatepark was our only problem. Once there dude nothing could kill your damn trip! Oasis skatepark in Diego under that massive freeway traffic noise. Smell of gas fumes kind of added too it! May be that's why it didn't hurt when id eat turf when my trucks would hang on that key hole pool. Prob. Too damn loaded from all that morning traffic! Kiss play n on the loud p.A. That was the shit! Thanks Powell! For bring n all those rad days back into this 40 yr old mad rat! Cal rage in AZ. Late! P.S. I still think decks should only have one tail and a snub nose.
— Frank Aguilara
My first board was a Steve Caballero 88, and my first good trick was the boneless...Now I'm old but I love skateboarding.
— Geebran Valencia
Wanted to let George Powell know that the bones brigade has always been a great motivator in my skating.. I've been skating from 1988 to 2007 and going strong making skateboarding happen in the NWT, thanks for making great skate products. Thats all!
— Vance "Sanderson"
I would like to say that I have been skating since 1978 and only stoped hardcore skating in the early 90s I still skated but the SK8 scene died and all of my SK8 buddies all grew up got married.I never seemed to grow up as far as loosing my love for this sport I am now SK8ing a 30th anniversity ripper and go Sk8ing with my 8 year daughter who SK8s a miny Hawk.I will never stop SK8ing and will always SK8 Powell products because when it comes to quality thier is just no substitute.In closing I would like to thank Powell for sticking to thier roots of supplying products that allways deliver. Fathfull till the end.
— Mike Lahn
Always stick to what works. Thanx Powell-Peralta!
— Joe Billhouser
PP - Thank you for the priceless childhood memories! At 30 yrs. old, I'm just as mesmerized by the artwork of your late 80s decks as I was when I was a 9 yr. old skate rat. PP and the Bones Brigade turned skateboarding into a lifetime obsession for me. I still remember when my folks gave me the green Rodney Mullen skeleton/chessboard freestyle deck for my birthday... one of the greatest b-day presents I've ever received. It's nice to know that with all of the posers and corporate thugs who have infiltrated skateboarding over the years, you guys still stand for its essence - FUN!! And you can bet that my kids will be riding your reissues.

Creative destruction
Considering how resolutely we've gone about waging it, a great deal of everyday technology has evolved from something invented to aid in warfare. TOI-Crest lists a few big inventions that owe their origins to what we now call 'defence production'
Canned Food
Back when Napoleon was terrorising Europe his commanders realised that armies really did march on their stomachs and advertised an astounding 12, 000 franc award for a way to preserve food, cheaply. Tinned food, invented by a canny French brewer, was soon feeding French troops who tore up the countryside until their little emperor himself got canned after Waterloo.
The tech that now makes us blindly drive cars into other people's walls was fi rst designed for the US Navy, which needed such an all-weather navigation system for its submarines to truly spook the Soviets. The satellite-based NAVSTAR system was born in the 1960s and announced for public use by the US government two decades later, after a Korean airliner strayed into Soviet airspace and got shot down.
Rockets, The Space Age
Even before World War II formally ended, a battle to lure brilliant Nazi rocket scientists broke out between the US and the Soviet Union who knew the potential of this nascent technology. The Space Race began a decade later as both countries led the way in space exploration by launching all manner of things atop bigger and better rockets while piling up bigger and better missiles on the side. From satellites to planetary probes to the moon landings, it was the Cold War that truly propelled us into the Space Age.
From the most famous ancient example (the Roman road system) to more than a few modern ones (Germany's autobahn, the US's interstate highway system) broad, smooth roads have always been what rulers have laid while preparing to defend the realm, or steamroller another.
The Internet
The modern computer owes a great deal to machines like ENIAC and Colossus, used by Allied forces in Word War II. The internet began life in the 1960s as an American defence project called ARPANET which sought to make computers 'talk' to each other.
Soon after launching us into the winged age, the Wright Brothers hawked their invention not to awestruck millionaires looking to head to their next golf game but to the US Army. In fact, many major advances in aviation have come from the military. From the jet engine to radar (which also helped spawn the microwave oven) and from the helicopter to composites, military needs have spurred many an inventor's flights of fancy.

DH prefers one, I prefer the other. We both like both names though.
So throwing it over to EB, which do you prefer & why? #2Posted 21 February 2013 - 10:23 AM
Adelaide. Great nickname options, classic and feminine, not common. I don't mind Violet but I don't love it.
#3Posted 21 February 2013 - 10:47 AM
not really keen on either, prefer violet
#4Posted 21 February 2013 - 10:52 AM
Adelaide gets my vote. Gorgeous name. Violet is nice too, but I really love Adelaide.
#5Posted 21 February 2013 - 10:54 AM
Adelaide is beautiful, I adore it. Violet is ok but I'm not really into flower names.
#6Posted 21 February 2013 - 10:56 AM
Love Adelaide, like Violet. Don't think you could wrong with either.
#7Posted 21 February 2013 - 10:58 AM
I'm sorry but I aways thing Violet sounds too much like Violent.
Adelaide is very nice. #8Posted 21 February 2013 - 11:21 AM QUOTE (Mary Myrtle Mae @ 21/02/2013, 10:22 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> DH prefers one, I prefer the other. We both like both names though. So throwing it over to EB, which do you prefer & why? I prefer Adelaide. Good nn, sounds strong, but feminine. A nod to the past, but still contemporary. Violet just reminds me of a old woman with a blue rinse and sensible orthotic lace-ups. #9Posted 21 February 2013 - 11:35 AM
#10Posted 21 February 2013 - 11:41 AM
I actually like both! Think I'd lean slightly towards Violet, but only just.
#11Posted 21 February 2013 - 12:01 PM
I'm not fond of either. Between the two though I'd go with Adelaide. Like a PP, Violet looks and sounds like VIOLENT to me.
#12Posted 21 February 2013 - 12:03 PM
Both are beautiful and high up on our lists. A slight nudge toward Adelaide, purely for the fact that I think Violet is a bit more popular. But both equally lovely.
#13Posted 21 February 2013 - 01:55 PM
Violet, but I really like Adelaide too.
#14Posted 21 February 2013 - 01:55 PM
#15Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:00 PM
I prefer Violet purely because I'm not a fan of place names.
#16Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:00 PM
Violet for me. DD's middle name is Violet and I tossed up giving it to her as her first name but I thought it was becoming more popular (as it happened we heard of a few within months of DD's birth).
Violet doesn't seem close to Violent when you're referring to a little girl #17Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:03 PM
Violet, all the Violets I know are lovely.
I've never associated the name with violent, it's a flower to me. #18Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:08 PM
I don't really like either but would pick violet over Adelaide because I don't go for names of suburbs/cities for people. Also for names similar to Adelaide, how about Adeline or Adalita?
#19Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:16 PM
Violet, but i'm biased because my DDs middle name is Violet
#20Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:19 PM
Both are pretty but I choose Violet because one day your daughter might want to live in Adelaide.
#21Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:27 PM
I love both. I love the NN's for both too - Vi and Adi. I would say that I prefer Violet though
#22Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:28 PM
Adelaide sounds heavy to me. It's nice if you like Germanic names, probably, but it doesn't do much for me. To me, it sounds a bit like it comes with a dirndl, which is not my personal style.
It sounds equally as vintage as Violet so either one could ping old-lady or charmingly vintage, I'd think. I prefer Violet by a long, long way. I do like many/most flower names though. I even like Viola, which no one else really does. I don't mind Ada itself, though I prefer more like AH-da or Odd-uh to AID-uh, which I think is more popular out here? Adele could be another option. #23Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:28 PM
Adelaide is beautiful
#24Posted 21 February 2013 - 02:32 PM
I am old enough to have known relatives with names of this vintage so to me they are a bit TOOOOOOOO old lady-ish.
#25Posted 21 February 2013 - 03:13 PM
I prefer Adelaide, though Violet is ok.

Add a CommentSolid movie from start to finish!
Awesome acting, story telling, soundtrack, and cinematography.
Pretty typical underdog triumph movie. Well written and acted enough that the predictable story isn't a bother. I liked that it didn't have grating subplots up the wazoo to add "dramatic tension" because it honestly didn't need them.
I think this is for ages 10 and up, this is definitely not a horror film and would be fun to watch with family and friends. My favorite character in the film is Edie because his is a very caring person and helps Mrs. Chenery cool herself down in difficult periods.Also the song OH HAPPY DAY was played, during the song the horse, big red, was DANCING, he was nodding his head up and down. I say this is a great movie to watch when you are not brave to face your fear or when you have a huge test at school. This is based on a true story. I give it a 101 out 100 stars. I hope you enjoy watching it!
"I've run my race. Now you run yours."
" This is not about going back. This is about life being ahead of you and you run at it!"
Well, I sure enjoyed it, and I was on the edge of my seat, even though I knew the outcome. This all happened in my horse crazy teenage days, I probably still have a news clipping about Secretariat, stuffed in a scrap book somewhere. I guess I'm still horse crazy, but as for riding 'em....my body says "no, no!" I will be reading the book, that this movie was based on, as I know Disney can ham it up pretty good. Was interested to note that the director wrote some of the musical tracks, and the actress who sang the last song, was also a musician. Never heard of her before, but will be checking her out on "I-Tunes." Also will keep my eye out for Randall Wallace's next film. I missed the cameo of Penny Cheney in the last scene. Thankfully, I haven't taken this back yet, so will put it back in and check it out! I'll probably watch this movie again sometime, and see if I can spot Randall Wallace in it as well. (I'll watch any movie with horses in it a second time, especially feel good ones like this one!)....and "ecifani" what on earth is so "terrible" about it?!...."BertBailey", I just think that your expectations are a bit to "high!" ....."chris24books," why wouldn't Disney make this movie?, and I think the "bossy rich woman" had a lot of guts. (Didn't sound like her father started out with much, but gave her the confidence she needed to stick with her goals and dreams.) My goodness.
Hard to imagine how a story about a bossy rich woman ended up as a Disney movie. The part about the horse and the trainer and jockey are interesting, as are the sociological details of that rarified world of the super-rich who raise thoroughbreds.
Inheritance tax of $6,000,000 in the 1970s? Wow.....
Sentimental but very well done account of career of the great racehorse. The film glosses over some historical facts (for example, there is no mention of 1972 Derby winner Riva Ridge, also from the Chenery stables) but does an excellent job of capturing the excitement of Secretariat's Triple Crown chase.
I saw the movie and I had liked it
this is based on a true story this isnot for children to watch
This movie is amazing. In another movie Seabiscut- it's also about racing but the horse has a bad accident. It also has some stuff that shouldn't have been in it. But this movie is perfectly ok for almost everyone other that some mild language. It's soo inspring to me and it's by far my favorite movie!! I also love how it has the real owner of Secretariat in the movie at the very end.

About Me Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
I bought 4 of these the other day. I took the packaging off of one of them and one of the latches fell right off. I took the packaging off of the second one and one of the latches came off when I tried to open the container. I opened the third one hoping that I had just gotten unlucky with the first 2. The latches were intact on this one, but the container is kind of difficult to close and it always felt like the latches were about to fall off every time I closed them. I didn't even bother opening the fourth. All of them are going back and I won't be purchasing these anymore.
