The titles borne by Herb Epp tell much, but not all, about the extraordinary man who died on Monday at the age of 78. Mayor of Waterloo, member of the Ontario Legislature, Waterloo regional councillor, alderman for Waterloo and school teacher — he was known and respected by many names.
Yet above all Herb Epp should be called a builder — not of houses or office towers but communities. The proof is everywhere in Waterloo, in the new library and YMCA he helped plan in his last term of office, in Waterloo's vibrant public square, which he also championed in those years. The full sum of what Epp constructed, however, is far greater than these achievements.
In the past 50 years, Waterloo has grown from a small, provincial city into a globally recognized centre for new technology, innovation and higher learning. There are many people — entrepreneurs, business people, academics, engineers — who led this incredible, and, for the most part unforeseen, transformation.
But the list of citizens who made the most enduring contributions to Waterloo, and the Region of Waterloo as well, must include Epp's name. Over that pivotal half century, Epp served as an elected politician for 26 years. To that record must be appended the decade or so he spent in less visible but still vital community work.
Just think: Waterloo's population is nearing 100,000 today. But there were slightly more than 30,000 people living there when Epp was first elected alderman in 1968. There was no regional government either, just old, awkward and ineffective Waterloo County.
Epp was an influential civic leader in the momentous years that led up to and then followed the creation of two-tiered Waterloo Region in 1973. Originally he doubted the worth of this new regional system of government. On some issues, he was proved right, such as the time in 1975 when, as mayor, he resisted regional opposition to a new shopping centre in the city's north end. That centre, of course, is known today as Conestoga Mall, and it's impossible to imagine Waterloo without it.
Even so, Epp was won over to the strengths of the new region and became such an ardent supporter of it that, when he first ran for a seat in the provincial legislature, he opposed a pledge from his own Liberal Party leader Stuart Smith to scrap regional government. No, Epp insisted, this region was worth keeping.
Despite his disappointment at never being made a cabinet minister, Epp loyally served his party whether it was in opposition or government. After leaving provincial politics in 1990, his contributions to this community continued.
Epp served on the Waterloo Wellington Airport Commission, the boards of governors for the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University, on the Catholic Family Counselling Centre and Family and Children's Services. In addition to all this he somehow found time to serve as president of the Canadian Institute of International Affairs (Waterloo Region) and president of the Kitchener-Waterloo Rotary Club. No wonder he was renowned for his energy.
As Waterloo's mayor between 2003 and 2006, Epp helped stabilize the city's finances after the RIM Park fiasco. It's true that he led the city into an ill-advised series of lawsuits connected to the RIM Park deal that cost Waterloo more in legal fees than it won back in damages.
Even so, Epp's steady hand was a great cure for a city that had been sickened by scandal. And whether at the start or end of his political career, Epp conducted himself with a quiet grace, integrity and modesty. He was a class act.
It's sad to realize that such a life of service is over. Yet there is consolation and inspiration in seeing the legacy Herb Epp leaves and that will live on. Commenting is closed.

Wear them as a necklace, store songs on them and track your steps: Huawei's high-end wireless earbuds are coming this spring.
The Bose SoundLink Bluetooth On-Ear is pricey, but it's also one of the best -- if not the best -- on-ear wireless headphones to date.
The well-designed and comfortable NAD Viso HP50 ($300) is all about clean, very accurate sound, making it an audiophile favorite.
The Monster 24K Headphones are a solid purchase for DJs looking to add flashiness to their gear without sacrificing sound quality, but they won't fit everyone so be sure to try them on before buying.
The NAD isn't head and shoulders above the competition in its price class, but it does sound really good and should be given careful consideration if you're looking for an audiophile-grade headphone that won't break the bank.
This $99 wireless in-ear headphone conforms to your neck with a bendable collar and offers strong sound for the price.
The Monster DNA Pro 2.0 headphones are a step forward in design and sound quality, but some users may find the ear cups too narrow.
The over-the-ear MH40 from headphone-newcomer Master and Dynamic has impressive build quality and excellent sound.
If you've always wanted to own a pair of high-end "audiophile" headphones but can't quite justify dropping a grand on a pair, the superb sounding HiFiMan HE-400i is a good compromise.
Wireless headphones are a hot trend right now -- loads of new models are set to hit stores in 2015. Here are some of the most promising new Bluetooth cans we found on the show floor.

Government run health care systems are an unmitigated disaster. I should know. One hundred percent of mine is via the VA. Take, for example: On October 29th, that was on the last Thursday of the month, after suffering mild but nonetheless all-day-all-night-for-at-least-three-weeks-no-matter-whether-I-was-standing-or-sitting-or walking-or-laying-down lower back pain, I called the clinic in Palm Desert, nine miles from my home in Palm Springs. The WAIT!!! for an appointment: ridiculous; utterly ridiculous. The first convenient -- and I cannot emphasize "convenient" (I wanted an afternoon slot, as I had plans for the morning) enough -- appointment I could get was 1:00 PM, Monday, the 2d of November.
I decided to leave for the clinic a half-hour early, as I'd gotten lost previously. The result was I arrived at the clinic at 12:45. And again: The WAIT!!! Although my appointment was for 1:00, I was made to wait in the chair facing the very lovely Tracie who worked the phones behind the glass partition, until 12:52. Then, after visiting with the doctor, who devoted only 20 minutes to me (She went over every possible health issue I might have, including a review of my medications; all available to her perusal on the computer monitor -- no paper records here.) I was sent to have my back X-rayed at a nearby imaging center at 2:30.
Oh, you bet your sweet bippie, I just wished I'd had private health insurance, the system that conservative Democrats and all Republicans applaud as the "best on earth." Geez . . . I am sooo envious of those folks with United or Anthem or Aetna, and the co-pays and deductibles and EOBs that tell the subscriber what the sums are that remain owed and that may catapult them into personal bankruptcy, and the ever escalating premiums that I have no personal experience with!
Dropping the oozing sarcasm, this past summer, around five in the evening, I began to experience unwell symptoms. I called the VA Care-nurse, who then advised me to get to the nearest hospital, which in my case was Eisenhower Med Center in Rancho Mirage, also one of the country's most highly esteemed. (It was the one President Gerald Ford accessed.) Whatever the cost might become, I was assured the VA would cover it. As follow-up to my atrial fibrillation episode, the VA provided to me free of any charge(s) a new Life-Source "Easy One Step" blood pressure monitor, model UA-767V and a renewable 90-day supply of Diltiazem 180 mg capsules.
However, this is purely anecdotal, and one should never, ever pretend there is much evidentiary value to anecdotal evidence, additionally I have conversed with numerous other veterans who rely on the VA for their medical care. Not a single one has reported anything but glowingly on the level of the care they receive, or has reported being denied the care or the therapies their physicians recommend. No "death panels" or "plugs being pulled."
On the other hand, I had a 25-year-old niece who was suffering Ewing's sarcoma. The team of oncologists treating her recommended a full blood transplant. Her health insurance company said "No, they wouldn't pay for it," and her parents were months later presented with her MBA from Colorado . . . posthumously.
Where I reside during the winter months is a 55+ mobile home park. Approximately half of the 250 units are owned by Canadians who spend a few weeks to a number of months here, while it's too inclement for their bones up north. Not a one has expressed the first whisper of desire to switch the Canadian health care system for the one we have here in the States. Indeed, many ponder the manifest insanity and ignorance of Americans, for putting up with what we're burdened with. In fact a few have suggested -- suggestions that seem to be borne out with evidence -- that our expensive health care system, with the load it puts on the back of US industry, is one of the reasons that most Fords are now made in Canada.
In Thursday's New York Times, op-ed columnist Nicholas D. Kristoff, in "Unhealthy America," (click here;emc=th) reintroduces several statistical facts that should energize everyone's synapses. Statistics like, according to the World Health Organization, the US reaches no higher than 37th in infant mortality, which begs the query: Where the hell are all the shouting and screaming right to lifers? Other stats observe that Irish women perish in childbirth at a rate that is 1/11th that of American mothers-who-would-otherwise-be. While Alabama's Republican US Senator Richard Shelby has called the US system the "best in the world," when it comes to preventing preventable deaths, in a Robert Wood Foundation study of the world's leading 19 industrialized societies, the US led by being the "worst of the worst." The rousing chants -- USA! USA! USA! -- just ring in my ears; stirs that ol' patriotic fervor . . . all the way to tepid. Also noted was the forecast that Hondurans have a more lengthy life expectancy than African-Americans. Kristoff's column includes an apology to Slovenia. He raised the fact that an American child is twice as likely as a Slovenian child to die in its first year of life, and evidently the Slovenians took umbrage that he would use their country to compare it with ours in the same sentence.
Oh . . . yeah, I almost forgot: Kristoff does point out how, in every category, Americans actually do fare better than folks in any other country on earth . . . once they reach 65 and are on Medicare!
I STRONGLY urge all to read the op-ed piece.
(As a personal note, I am very grateful that a grateful nation is remembering the service I rendered to it from June 22, 1964 through to June 21, 1967. But, in my opinion, that military service I provided should in no way be the determining factor, whether I receive excellent medical care and someone else receives either the barest of bare-bones attention, or none.
A few days ago the country was fêted with a local election feast. Pundits have and are having their say as to what the results all meant. The governor races that went to the Republican candidates in New Jersey and Virginia showed some clear indications that the progressives in those two states stayed home, with the results being precisely what took place. I've posited earlier and frequently that that was what was going to happen, unless the Dems steered a fearless and fearsome tack on the issues that progressives take issue with: genuine health care reform that would include -- as a minimum -- a strong "public option" that would be accessible by all under 65 Americans, the ushering of corporate interests out of the bill making process, paying more interest to the interests of Main Street than Wall Street, etc. As this epistle isn't focusing on anything but health care reform, those other salient issues will obtain no further note here.
John Donne answered Cain's question, "Am I my brother's keeper" with "No man is an island." I have wonderful health care, and hopefully so do you. But there are scores of millions of Americans who have none, some number times that who are without adequate and reliable care, and nearly an entire nation with care that costs multiples of what it should [costs that can be trimmed by billions], and yet get far less in return than every other industrialized country on earth. This is not the time to sit on our hands, hoping someone else will engage the fight for what is fiscally prudent and morally right. The Democratic Senate Campaign Committee and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee [phone numbers: 202-224-2447 and 202-863-1500 respectively], the former under the chairmanship of US Senator Bob Menendez [ph: 202-224-4774] and the latter under US Representative Chris Van Hollen [ph: 202-225-5341] must be sternly advised that not a single dime from the progressives who put them into the majority will be forthcoming in lieu of the progress and change they ran on, that, furthermore, we fully expect that any Senate or House Democrat who in any manner works to impede a full and robust "public option" will lose whatever committee chairmanships (and Joe Lieberman absolutely!) they may hold, and that, additionally, enthusiastic progressive support will be to a primary challenger in their next reelection bid.)
Not some, or a few, but ALL who are in opposition to the health care reform measures that include the "public option"and who are arguing against it fall somewhere on the Stupid-as-a-rotting-tree-stump/morally-corrupt-as-Bernie-Madoff continuum. They're stupid and/or they're lying. No exceptions! No other possible diagnosis! Period! (I know, that was an exclamation point.)

dc.description.abstract | Objective The aim of this study was to examine the perceptions of a within-career transition, as experienced by adolescent athletes in the developmental stage of their careers. Design and method Qualitative interviews were used to examine the perceptions of 10 young event riders who had made a transition to regional level. Interviews were based on the developmental model [Wylleman, P., & Lavallee, D. (2004). A developmental perspective on transitions faced by athletes. In Weiss, M. (Ed.), Developmental sport psychology. Morgantown, WV: Fitness Information Technology] and the model of human adaptation to transition [Schlossberg, N. (1981). A model for analyzing human adaptation. The Counseling Psychologist, 9(2), 2–18]. Data analysis procedures drew upon guidelines from Strauss, A. L., and Corbin, J. [(1998). Basics of qualitative research: Techniques and procedures for developing grounded theory (2nd ed.). Beverly Hills, CA: Sage] and Patton, M. Q. [(2002). Qualitative research and evaluation methods (3rd ed.). Thousand Oaks, CA: Sage]. Results and conclusion Five categories have been identified (motivation for the transition, perceptions of the transition, sources of stress, support for athletic development, post-transition changes), which follow the process of transition as experienced by the athletes. Consistent with research, parents and peers were important at this stage, often prompting the motivation to make the transition, which was facilitated by considerable social support. Riders made considerable sacrifices during these adolescent years, and development in other areas (such as academic and social) was affected by this commitment, suggesting a risk for identity foreclosure at this formative time. Young athletes should be encouraged to develop a rounded identity to minimize the risk of foreclosure and the associated negative effects at retirement. Further within-career transition research is needed in order that programs can be designed which facilitate athlete development, mitigate negative influences, and minimize talent loss. | en |

Forget red carpet glamour – at the 2013 Sundance Film Festival this week, stars shined in their cabin-chic finest, from bright and cozy plaid shirts to casual fur-lined boots. Some celebrities, including Nicole Kidman and Julianne Moore, opted for polished, sophisticated outfits, but a good chunk, such as Maya Rudolph and Naomi Watts, looked ready to snuggle up by a fireplace. Leather leggings, embellished gloves, crochet and furry hats were spotted everywhere, but a few actors managed to bring unique fashion elements to Park City, Utah (Rooney Mara flashing some winter belly? Bold – and probably cold.)

PETALING JAYA: Music fans, take note! Double Oscar winner A.R. Rahman will be coming to Kuala Lumpur this April 26 for a concert at Stadium Merdeka.
The concert, entitled Infinite Love, is being organised by Indian entertainment company DML Live.
According to the company's Facebook page, tickets will go on sale the first week of February with prices yet to be announced.
Rahman's first concert in Kuala Lumpur, entitled Festival Night took place in October 1996 when he performed before a sell-out crowd of 40,000 people.
The maestro returned in Dec 20, 2003 for the Unity of Light concert at Shah Alam Stadium which saw notable Kollywood playback singers like Shankar Mahadevan, Hariharan and S.P. Balasubramaniam sharing the stage with him.
Described as the most prominent and prolific film composer by Time, Rahman's works are notable for integrating Indian classical music with pop, modern electronica, world and Western classical music.
Rahman has to date won two Oscars, two Grammys, a BAFTA award, a Golden Globe award, four National Film Awards, 15 Filmfare Awards and 13 Filmfare Awards South. In 2009, Time placed Rahman in its list of the World's Most Influential People.
A.R. Rahman has sold more than 150 million copies of his works comprising of music from more than 100 film soundtracks and albums in half a dozen languages including landmark scores such as Roja, Bombay, Lagaan, Slumdog Millionaire, Delhi 6, Rockstar and most recently, Raanjhana and Maryan.

Charlotte Douglas International Airport (IATA: CLT, ICAO: KCLT, FAA LID: CLT) is a joint civil-military public international airport located in Charlotte, North Carolina. Established in 1935 as Charlotte Municipal Airport, in 1954 the airport was renamed Douglas Municipal Airport after former Charlotte mayor Ben Elbert Douglas, Sr. The airport gained its current name in 1982 and is currently US Airways' largest hub, with service to 175 domestic and international destinations as of 2008.[3] In 2009, it was the 9th busiest airport in the United States.[4] In 2010, Charlotte was the 6th busiest airport in the world, based on traffic movements, and in 2013 it was the 23rd busiest airport in the world by passenger traffic.[5] Charlotte Douglas International is the busiest airport in the United States without nonstop service to Asia.[citation needed]
The city received a $200,000 grant from the Works Progress Administration (WPA) in 1930 to establish Charlotte's first municipal airport.
In 1936 the Charlotte Municipal Airport opened, operated by the City of Charlotte; Eastern Air Lines began scheduled passenger service in 1937. The original passenger terminal still exists at Fenway Sports Group's Boeing 727 parking area. (FSG's North American motorsport venture, Roush Fenway Racing, is based in the old terminal).
The United States Army Air Forces took control of the airport and established Morris Field Air Base in 1941. The airfield was used by the Third Air Force for antisubmarine patrols and training.
In 1954 a 70,000-square-foot (6,500 m2) passenger terminal opened and the airport was renamed Douglas Municipal Airport in honor of former Charlotte Mayor Ben Elbert Douglas, Sr. The terminal had two floors, though passenger operations were confined to the ground floor. Ticketing and baggage claim were on each side of an open space which bisected the building from north to south, and a mezzanine restaurant and airline offices overlooked this open space. Delta Air Lines began scheduled passenger service in 1956. The OAG for April 1957 shows 57 weekday departures on Eastern, 7 Piedmont, 6 Capital, 4 Delta and 2 Southern. Nonstop flights did not reach beyond Newark, Pittsburgh, Columbus, Louisville, Birmingham and Jacksonville.
Airport diagram for 1955
Eastern Air Lines began scheduled jet flights with the Boeing 720 in early 1962.[6] Eastern used the west pier, Piedmont and Delta the center pier, and United and Southern used the east pier.
A major renovation project in the late 1960s expanded the facility considerably. Eastern opened a 'unit terminal' in 1967, replacing the old west pier. This new facility had 8 dedicated gates for Eastern, each with its own departure lounge, as well as a snack bar and separate baggage claim space. Eastern passengers continued to check in at the main terminal.
Two years later in 1969, a new enclosed concourse was built parallel to the center pier. When it was completed, Piedmont, Eastern and Delta moved in and the old center pier was demolished. The new concourse also had separate departure lounges, as well as restrooms and an enlarged baggage claim area. United's flights continued to the use the east pier, although an enclosed holdroom was added for waiting passengers.
In 1973, Eastern added two more gates to the end of its west concourse.
After airline deregulation in 1978, passenger numbers at the terminal nearly doubled between 1978 and 1980, and a new 10,000-foot (3,000 m) parallel runway and control tower opened in 1979. The airport's master plan called for a new terminal across the runway from the existing site, and ground was broken in 1979.
In 1979 Piedmont Airlines chose Charlotte as the hub for its expanding route network. To accommodate booming growth, a new 325,000-square-foot (30,200 m2) passenger terminal designed by Odell Associates opened in 1982, and the airport was renamed Charlotte Douglas International Airport.[7]
Concourses B and C were expanded in 1987 and 1984 respectively, while Concourse A was built in 1986 to handle future growth[7]
In 1987 Piedmont started non-stop 767 flights to London.
In the mid-1980s the old terminal site was converted to a cargo center, and the central concourse and Eastern 'unit terminal' were removed to make way for more cargo buildings. The original main building still stands and is used for office space. The old control tower was removed in the late 1990s.
In 1989 Piedmont merged with USAir; the new merged operations kept the USAir name.
In 1990, a new 80,000-square-foot (7,400 m2) international and commuter concourse (Concourse D) opened, and in 1991 further expansion of the central terminal building continued, reflective of USAir's dominating presence at the airport. A monumental bronze statue of Queen Charlotte of Mecklenburg-Strelitz (the namesake of the city), created by Raymond Kaskey, was placed in front of the main terminal.
In 1990, Lufthansa began Boeing 747 service to Germany; however, this service was discontinued shortly thereafter. In 1994, British Airways began service to London via a "global alliance" with USAir. This has since been discontinued, as the airlines had chosen opposite alliances (though they now are both in OneWorld). Lufthansa did restart service to Charlotte in 2003 and now operates flights between Charlotte and Munich, Germany utilizing Airbus A340-600 and Airbus A330-300 aircraft.
In 1999, plans were announced for the construction of a regional carrier concourse (present-day Concourse E) and for the expansion of Concourses A and D. This expansion was designed by The Wilson Group and LS3P Associates Ltd.[8]
In 2002, the new 32-gate Concourse E opened,[9] and US Airways also began non-stop service to Belize, Freeport, Providenciales, Punta Cana, and St. Croix. The airline closed its Concourse D US Airways Club location in 2002.
In 2003, the main ticketing hall was expanded to the east, providing 13 additional ticketing counters and a new security checkpoint; and Concourse D was expanded by an additional 9 gates. That year, US Airways began service to Costa Rica, Mexico City, and St. Kitts. Lufthansa also returned to the airport at this time providing service to Munich.
Following America West Airlines' acquisition of US Airways in a reverse takeover,[10] Charlotte (CLT) remains the primary domestic hub for the airline. However, the majority of US Airways' international routes are served out of the airline's second-largest hub, Philadelphia. In April 2007, Charlotte was the fastest growing airport in the US.[11] and is among the 30 busiest airports in the world in terms of passenger traffic.[citation needed]
On July 16, 2013 the North Carolina General Assembly passed a bill, introduced by state Senator Bob Rucho in February 2013, transferring possession of the airport to a 13-member regional authority. Then Acting Mayor of Charlotte Patsy Kinsey expressed regret for the decision, saying it would throw the airport into "chaos and instability."[12] However, the City of Charlotte was granted a restraining order against the state by Judge Robert Sumner in order to maintain control of the airport, and a court date was set for August 1 to determine the fate of the airport, with former Charlotte mayor Richard Vinroot representing the State as well as the former director of the airport, Jerry Orr.[13] Orr sent a letter to the City after the passage of the bill saying his "employment as Executive Director of the Airport Authority commenced and (his) employment by the City as Aviation Director terminated", but with the granting of the restraining order, this was interpreted as a resignation by the City, and chief financial officer of the airport Brent Cagle was named Acting Director.[14]
The August 1, 2013 court date yielded a verdict that the transfer, should it occur, would need prior approval from the FAA, a division of the US Department of Transportation, currently headed by former Charlotte Mayor Anthony Foxx, who has officially recused himself from the matter.
Construction of Charlotte International's fourth runway began in the spring of 2007. At 9,000 feet (2,700 m) long, the new "third parallel" will allow three independent approaches for arrivals even from the south, potentially increasing capacity by 33 percent. This new runway lies west of the three existing runways. The construction of the fourth runway required the relocation of parts of Wallace Neel Road (which had previously formed the Western boundary of the airport) to an alignment located further to the west.
Construction involved two phases. The first phase, which began in March 2007, included grading and drainage. The second phase included the paving and lighting of the runway. In August 2009, crews paved the last section.[15]
On the morning of November 20, 2008 runway 18R/36L was changed to runway 18C/36C in anticipation of the upcoming commissioning of the new third parallel runway which would carry the 18R/36L designation when opened.
The runway opened January 6, 2010. The cost for the runway and taxiways was $325 million, with the federal government paying $124 million and the rest funded by a $3 fee added to the cost of a ticket.[16]
The new runway was initially operational for visual approaches only, but is since February 11, 2010 approved for instrument approaches as well. The Runway construction also has planned to reroute several roads around the airport. Within these plans, a new interchange at the I-485 outerbelt is planned to connect the airport and another relocated road.
In 2013, the airport will release plans for the largest expansion in the airport's history. This would add onto multiple concourses, add an additional food court and multiple new parking decks.
Furthermore, Charlotte Douglas has initiated a project known as "CLT 2015", this project has been aimed at aiding the airport cope with the massive increase of passengers at the airport in recent years, and therefore expansion is needed to continue to allow Charlotte Douglas International Airport to continue growing in size and keep up with demand, the current plans are to expand the current terminal lobby to the north, construct a fifth runway and a new International terminal.
The "Fourth Parallel" runway for Charlotte Douglas is due to be formally designed in 2014 and construction has been planned to commence in January 2015 and scheduled for completion in the early stages of 2017, the runway is going to be built in between the existing runways 18R/36L and 18C/36C, and at 12,000 ft, the new runway would be Charlotte's longest to date.[17]
The airport plans to extend Concourse E by 120 feet (37 m) to accommodate additional aircraft. Unlike the rest of Concourse E, this new portion will have 2 levels to accommodate larger CRJs and Embraer aircraft.
In addition,Concourse E is planned to be disconnected to the main terminal, and would then be accessible by underground walkway. A shuttle will be built connecting the terminals, parking garages, rental car center, and eventually, light rail.
On September 28, 2010 construction officially began to expand the ticket counter area connecting it to Concourse E eventually making room for one more security checkpoint area. The first phase of the terminal expansion officially opened on Friday June 29, 2012.
The parking options at Charlotte Douglas have drastically improved in recent years. There have been two new Daily Parking decks erected since 2005, providing almost 6,000 additional parking spaces for the traveling public. There are also four Long Term lots, with Long Term 1 and 2 being the primary ones contributing a combined 6,500 spaces. In addition, there is the Daily North lot (formerly Remote), which is between the Daily and Long Term lots, with about 1,500 spaces. A new 40-million-dollar Business Valet Parking Deck, which utilizes Post Tension Concrete for each massive 250,000-square-foot (23,000 m2) level, has now opened. Charlotte's close-in surface and deck parking exits are serviced by part-time personnel from booths apparently dating to the 1982 terminal expansion. The Daily parking rates at CLT are some of the lowest in the nation[citation needed], with Long Term costing $4 and Daily/Daily North Parking is $10 per day. Staff audits every parking area each evening to upload license plate data to ensure each vehicle is assessed the correct parking fee when it exits. The airport has recently aligned with a customer service program called SmartPark, which allows customers to call a hotline 24 hours a day to receive updates on parking conditions. Charlotte Douglas also has Valet parking that provides vehicle washing and detailing and even paintless dent removal services for an additional charge[citation needed].
As of March 1, 2013 both Hourly decks are closed and have been demolished.
All current lots require shuttles. Business Valet picks up outside Concourse D on the Departures level. All other shuttles pick up on the Arrivals level in the B zone and D zone. The Daily decks have a shuttle which makes 1 stop for both decks. Long Term 1 shares with Daily North and makes stops at lettered bus stops. Long Term 2 and 3 share a shuttle and also make stops at lettered bus stops. It is advised to remember your lot and letter to get on the correct bus on arrival. You can now keep your ticket with you and pay while waiting for the return shuttle with a credit or debit card or you can pay at a manned booth or automated machine.
As of July 2012 there is now also an offsite parking lot called Park n Go on Scott Futrell Drive.
Charlotte Douglas International Airport is one of the few airports in the US that has a public viewing area. Here, visitors can watch planes take off, land, and taxi to and from runway 18C/36C. It is credited with having one of the best airport views in the United States.
Charlotte Douglas International Airport is one of a small number of major "hub" airports in the world which has an aviation museum located on the field. The Museum, established in 1992, has a collection of over 50 aircraft, including a flying DC-3 which is painted in Piedmont Airlines livery. The Museum also has an aviation library with over 9,000 volumes and a very extensive photography collection. Rare aircraft in the collection include one of only two surviving Douglas D-558 Skystreak aircraft, and the second (and oldest surviving) US-built Harrier, which was used as the flight-test aircraft and accumulated over 5,000 flight-test hours.
In January 2011 the Museum acquired N106US, the US Airways Airbus A320 ditched by Chesley Sullenberger as US Airways Flight 1549 in the Hudson River on January 15, 2009. This aircraft, which was delivered on June 10, 2011, is about 35 years younger than any other commercial airliner on display in a museum, gives the museum an unparalleled technological lead over other aviation museums in the field of commercial aviation.

CATS' Sprinter Enhanced Bus Service connects the airport to the downtown Charlotte Transportation Center (this route was formerly known as the "Route 5-Airport"). It arrives and departs in front of Zone D Baggage Claim in the commercial lanes, and is easily identifiable by its green livery and "Sprinter" decals.
The service is operated from the airport every 20 minutes Monday–Friday from 5:50am to 7:00pm, after 7:00pm, service is offered every 30 minutes until 12:02am. On Saturday and Sunday, Sprinter operates from the airport every hour from 6:00am to 8:00am, every half-hour from 8:00am to 9:00pm, and every hour from 9:00pm to 1:00am. Trip time from the airport to downtown is approx. 20 minutes (depending on traffic conditions) and one-way fare is $1.75 (this is the same as all local routes in the CATS system). View the Sprinter Schedule for more detailed schedule and route information.
As a joint civil-military facility, the airport is home to Charlotte Air National Guard Base (Charlotte ANGB) and its host unit, the 145th Airlift Wing (145 AW) of the North Carolina Air National Guard, located in a military cantonment area on the east side of the airport. As an Air National Guard organization within the U.S. Air Force, the federal mission of the 145 AW is theater airlift and it is operationally-gained by the Air Mobility Command (AMC). The 145 AW is composed of over 300 full-time and over 1000 traditional part-time military personnel, operating and maintaining C-130 Hercules aircraft in support of combatant commanders world-wide or as otherwise directed by higher authority. Its state mission is to respond to requirements, typically of a humanitarian or disaster-relief nature, as identified by the Governor of North Carolina.[25] The 145 AW's C-130H aircraft can also be equipped with the Modular Airborne Fire Fighting System (MAFFS), making them able to discharge large quantities of Phos-Chek, a water-based fire retardant slurry, at low altitude. In this capacity, the 145 AW is one of a select group of Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve Command C-130 units that, under the direction of U.S. Northern Command (USNORTHCOM), can deploy and provide military support to civilian authorities across the United States in combatting wild fires and forest fires.
Charlotte ANGB also maintains a USAF Aircraft Rescue and Firefighting (ARFF) unit, emergency vehicles, and associated crash station/fire station on the installation, providing the airport with an additional crash/fire/rescue (CFR) capability that can augment the airport's own civilian ARFF organization.
Charlotte Douglas International Airport is also home to the USO of NC (United Service Organization of North Carolina) Travel Center, which functions as an airport lounge for military personnel (to include military retirees) and their families. Staffed by volunteers, the centers offer comfortable chairs, books, magazines, television, movies, video games, play areas for children, and refreshments. Internet and phone use is available free of charge.

The church at Ephesus (Rev. 2:6) is commended for hating the "deeds" of the Nicolaitanes, and the church of Pergamos is blamed for having them who hold their "doctrines" (15). They were seemingly a class of professing Christians, who sought to introduce into the church a false freedom or licentiousness, thus abusing Paul's doctrine of grace (comp. 2 Pet. 2:15, 16, 19), and were probably identical with those who held the doctrine of Baalam (q.v.), Rev. 2:14.

LONDON Nov 6 (Reuters) - Spain's Rafael Nadal will end the year ranked number one in the world rankings for the third time in his career after beating Switzerland's Stanislas Wawrinka 7-6(5) 7-6(6) at the ATP World Tour Finals on Wednesday.
The 27-year-old's second Group A victory at the season finale means he cannot be overtaken by chief rival Novak Djokovic even if the Serb retains his title in London. Nadal's hard-fought win also guaranteed his place in the semi-finals. (Writing by Martyn Herman; Editing by Ken Ferris)

Seven Ways to Enjoy Strawberries
Strawberries are in season, and every time I pop one of the candy-sweet berries into my mouth, I'm reminded why people savor in-season fruit so much. If you aren't eating strawberries right now, I don't know what you're waiting for. They are a great addition to salads, brunch, cocktails, and, of course, desserts. I even recently enjoyed a pizza topped with strawberries and feta. Here are seven delicious ways to enjoy strawberries.

my faaaaaaaaaaaavorite. my city is well known for its strawberries, the strawberry festival is coming up i believe, or already did i dunno, i wasnt paying attention haha

My favorite thing to do with them is dip them in sour cream, then brown sugar. (Yes, sour cream, not whipped cream.) It is one of my all time favorite desserts. Yum!

i was unable to say "strawberry" when I was a kid. So my parents tell me I used to say "straw-bee-bee". My girlfriend used to say "tra-tra-berry" when she was a kid.
Strawberries bring out the kid in me.

I flew the Skywing Extra tonight after work in very light wind. This allowed me to trim it out better than when I maidened it in some wind. I got off to a bad start by doing a snap roll immediately after takeoff and nosing it in. The only damage was a broken prop. I had a spare, so after a quick prop change I was airborne and had 5 enjoyable flights. It really is a sensational plane and is a great companion to the similarly sensational Skywing MXS!

Good stuff GJ,I think I will try mine without the SFG this weekend to see what difference they make,would like to up the roll rate a bit,though I think I need the longer CF arms that are now back in stock....
Do you have an opinion on the SBach? it certainly looks the business! http://www.bestvaluerc.com/shop/shopexd.asp?id=297 Cheers, Bleary. |
Sep 14, 2011, 05:10 AM | |||
Hey Bleary,
Definitely give it a try without the SFGs to see if you like it. I'm currently flying both my MXS and Extra without SFGs. Today I ordered a Skywing 48" Yak in the curve scheme. The Yak has a slightly longer fuselage than the MXS and Extra that I already have. I've never tried the 49" Sbach, but for quite a while the 42" Sbach (perhaps discontinued) was my favourite foamy. It has a fast roll rate due to large ailerons and great pitch response due to a short fuselage. I have two 42" Sbachs. I haven't bought a 49" Sbach yet because I expect that it will be quite similar to my 42" Sbachs, perhaps a little more stable. BTW here are some videos of my 42" Sbachs.
http://www.vimeo.com/12233003 |
Sep 14, 2011, 04:54 PM | |
Thanks mate. BTW the Skywing Sbach has a new colour scheme and new proportions that should make is smoother to fly. Check out the last few posts on this thread: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1266576 I'm gonna see if I can swap my Yak order to a yellow Sbach order .
