NU Cycling Strength Training Plan – Adaptation Phase Introduction So, the real challenge with succeeding at bike racing is not increasing the average speed you can hold over the 1-3 hours of your race, but rather developing the instantaneous and sustainable power that will help you match the accelerations of your rivals and then have enough in the tank drop them like the sorry sack of potatoes that they are. Specifically, what separates the winner from 30 th place is almost always a difference in their 5s, 30s, and 3min max power outputs and their ability to repeat these efforts multiple times in a race. Because we are in the offseason, we have the luxury of using weight training to slightly increase muscle mass in advance of our explosive strength plyometrics work that is coming in December and January. Below I am outlining a 2 sessions/wk strength regimen that will develop both the leg and core strength to turn you into a fucking rocket engine on your bike. Feel free to modify it on your own or talk to me about adding and changing things if we are doing them as a group. When you start any new strength program, the first step is to get your body accustomed to doing the type of resistance movements that you will be attempting. This is called the adaptation phase and consists of doing many reps of an exercise at low weight (no one should skip the adaptation phase and go into low rep / high weight exercises for at least 3 weeks, 4 is better, because you'll hurt yourself and lose valuable training time). I will send out a revised training plan when we are going to switch to higher weights. Because cycling is a fast twitch affair, the best lifting style to use is an explosive extension and slow recovery (I will demonstrate this for those who don't know). The explosive extension develops the fast twitch muscles and the slow recovery minimizes the risk of injury as well as encouraging muscle hugification. I will also be advocating a circuit training strategy called 'super-sets'. That means that you are concurrently doing two exercises at the same time. Do one set of exercise A and then do a set of exercise B and alternate until all of you sets are done. Exercises A and B will be working different muscles, so you'll always be lifting but still have time for recovery. This is how we did it when I played football at Cornell and the lifting coach would yell at you if you were ever standing around (perhaps I will wear tank tops and yell at people to…). Super-sets allow you to lift more efficiently and also incorporate an aerobic component. You know you are doing it right if you are sweating and breathing hard. Also, per the training program of the British and Australian track programs, I will be gradually introducing as many unilateral (single leg) exercises as possible. Your brain and muscles seriously know the difference between moving weight with two legs and moving it with one leg (weird, but true). This also helps with core strength because it makes you balance while holding weights and should provide some entertainment the first few times we do it.

All this did was make my hair smell terrible and become a static-y mess. Didn't impart any volume, left a white cast, didn't make my hair look clean. I do like other products from this line, but not this one!

I don't like this at all. This was the first dry shampoo I bought so I thought maybe I was using it wrong but looking at these other reviews + buying a different brand I guess it's not me, it's the product.
No matter how much I brushed, there would still be stubborn spots of white in my dark brown/black hair. Even worse was when I sprayed, it almost made my hair feel MORE greasy and heavy than before! The more I brushed the worse the greasy feeling was! I thought, maybe dry shampoo just isn't for me but recently I went out and bought the Garnier Fructis dry shampoo and it worked 10x better than this. White spots were brushed out easily, grease/oil was absorbed, there was a pleasant smell, and my hair was definitely feeling refreshed afterwards. Totally the opposite of the NYM's dry shampoo. I wouldn't recommend this at all.

I have tried a few dry drugstore brand dry shampoos in the past. I color my hair so I only wash it once or twice a week. I was using Pantene dry shampoo, which smelled nice and helped a little, but I thought this my help a little more with oily roots. The first thing I noticed is the horrific smell, which reminded me of a cheap spray on deodorant. The second problem was that it left a huge white powder cast on my light auburn locks. My biggest complaint is that I washed my hair the next morning after using this product, and my red hair color faded like crazy. I have been dying my hair this color for years, and I have used the same hair color/brand and same shampoo method for at least 2-3 years now. But after using this and shampooing my root areas (only place I sparayed it) were much, much lighter, and looked very dull and waxy. Even coworkers mentioned my hair looked lighter. I know red fades quickly, but I have my routine down. I dye my roots about every 4-5 weeks and only need to quickly run color through my ends about twice a year. My red hair maintains very, very well this way, especially with the infrequent washings. This product is the only change I made, and right after using, the color fade was extremely noticeable, with an obvious fade line from where I did and didn't use the product. I warn anyone using colors/dyes.

I bought this recently at a relatively cheap price but I did not like it at all. It does not smell great, the smell consumes my bathroom and makes me nauseous and leaves my hair feeling very straw- like and very dry and rough to the touch. There is not much product in the can and you need to spray A LOT to actually make a difference in your hair. I used this can up in maybe 2 or 3 weeks with daily use. I will not be buying this again unless I really need to and it's the only can on the shelf.

Definitely my HG Dry Shampoo. I like the smell, but I could see how it wouldn't be for everyone. Doesn't leave any white in my hair, does a great job of oil control, all in all a good product. Have already repurchased it twice, and definitely intend to repurchase it once this can runs out!

I love this product. When I'm trying to extend my hairstyle it works like a charm. I don't have overly greasy hair, but when my scalp gets oily this stuff is great. It smells good and isn't chemically like other dry shampoos. It was relatively inexpensive and doesn't leave white spots in my hair. I've had the same bottle for over a year now and it's still going strong.
I would definitely recommend this product if you're looking for something to help between washes especially if you've gotten your hair straightened and don't feel like spending 2 hours blow drying and flat ironing it again.

This is my favorite dry shampoo. It makes my hair feel like I just washed it except a little thicker, more textured like all dry shampoos do. It doesn't make my hair feel messy or dirtier than before like some other brands do.

I recently bought this because with dyed hair, you obviously can't wash it EVERY single day, it would fade far too quickly. My hair is dyed a deep purple right now, and when I spray this in my hair it does a wonderful job of soaking up oil and keeping my hair smelling clean, without any residue or powdery texture. It looks as if I just washed my hair. The only issue is the scent, it smells like multi-purpose cleaner. Maybe they could come up with different scents? Just my opinion, but other than that it is a great product.

Something is wrong with my bottle because I spray it, and I can smell it but nothing is coming out. I look at my hair and its still oily so I must have a defective bottle. I really wanted to try it and this happens... The smell was alright though I'm just disappointed I purchased a defective one.

Review: Flash your way to better VMware performance
PernixData FVP clusters server-side flash to improve virtual machine performance and reduce SAN latency
When it comes to making virtual server farms easier to manage, the SAN is the great enabler. But when it comes to maximizing virtual server performance, the SAN is the great bottleneck. A single host running dozens of virtual machines (or more) can easily generate enough I/O operations to reduce overall SAN response time, increasing I/O latency and adversely affecting virtual machine performance. Adding more spindles may help in the short term, but that can be very disruptive to the storage infrastructure and does not really take care of the root of the problem: I/O bottlenecks.
One company that is working to improve VM performance by reducing storage I/O latency is PernixData. PernixData FVP is an add-on module for the VMware vSphere hypervisor that creates a cluster of high-speed SSD devices across multiple vSphere hosts. The PernixData "flash cluster" creates a distributed cache for reads and writes to the SAN, accelerating virtual machine I/O without requiring any changes to the VMs or their host datastores. And because the flash cluster is shared among hosts, PernixData FVP fully supports VMware services such as vMotion, DRS, and HA. VMs can continue to move freely from host to host without incurring a cache "miss" penalty.
[ Virtualization showdown: Microsoft Hyper-V 2012 vs. VMware vSphere 5.1 | InfoWorld Test Center reviews VMware vSphere 5.1 and VMware vCenter Operations Manager. | Get virtualization right with InfoWorld's 24-page "Server Virtualization Deep Dive" PDF guide. ]
By consolidating server-side flash into a single shared flash cluster, PernixData FVP leverages many small flash investments into a large I/O improvement. Installation is quick and easy, and it doesn't even require a reboot of the hosts. PernixData FVP comes in SMB and Standard versions. The SMB version is $9,999 for up to four hosts and 100 VMs. The standard edition is $7,500 per host with no restrictions on the number of hosts or virtual machines.
Zero to hero
Here is the quick takeaway for PernixData FVP: zero changes to the virtual machine environment. There are no changes to the VMs or to the underlying host datastores, and PernixData FVP is transparent to both the VMs and the SAN.

Alternative Energy Documentary: Preparing Children for a Better Worldfrom: Forsgrens
Giving children awareness on the condition of the present earth could be done in numerous ways. Classroom lectures could be one. Workshops and other indoor activities are another. Tours, and educational visits are also very good venues to orient children. Here, children are better introduced on whats up with the world they are living in. A world that they will manage in years time.
But awareness on that condition of the present world is only one half of the process. The other goes to providing solutions and the what should be done in order to make this world a better place. And one thing to do that is to provide children with the right medium. One of these is through documentary.
But, where should we start?
Among numerous problems we have in present, one way to start is by giving children a good knowledge on the importance of alternative energy. Since energy is the most widely used and the most important part of everyday living, documentaries on the different types of alternative energy would bring children to the next step.
Why alternative energy?
Oil or any oil-based products are the main sources of power generation to most countries around the world. And since oil prices are reaching their record heights and the awareness of the finite supply of oil is sinking to everyone, the need to find "alternatives" is the direction to take. Alternative energy is the most feasible way to explore.
Many would agree that there are potential energies around us. And many would also agree that these forms of energies are not being utilized to their full potential. While they are in existence long before we discover the use of oil, alternative energy progress is still trying to find its own room.
Alternative energy however, imposes great potential to become the main source of power in the future.
Why alterative energy for children?
Children should be thought of the ways to improve their world. And bringing the right awareness is vital to bring better improvements. It is but proper that in early age that children should know the different possibilities on how to power the world in the future. And infusing children with ideas can spark interests that later on could be used in a more productive way.
Why is there a need for alterative energy documentary for children?
Through documentaries on alternative energy, children become much aware on possibilities and ranges on how to maximize the power of the world. For example, a group of children was introduced with alternative energy documentary about the importance of utilizing solar power. If at least one of children would enter the career on improving solar power technology, it would become a great help. But that is not all, if all the children become aware of the importance of saving power and using alternative energy, it would be much beneficial in the long run.
Wrap up!
Alternative energy documentary for children is a good way in preparing for the future. Not only it will give awareness to children alternative energy documentary can introduce a wider perspective on how to improve at the same time protect the earth. The effects of alternative energy documentary cannot be seen instantly, but in the future, the result can be evident.

By Matthew Bennett, Associate Editor
Posted on October 17, 2011 AT 12:20pm
Posted on October 17, 2011 AT 12:20pm
THE BUZZ: Sega has confirmed that a second demo for Sonic Generations, featuring both the classic and modern versions of Green Hill. The first demo only allowed for the classic version to be played.
The demo will release tomorrow, October 18th on Xbox Live and October 25th on PSN. The game is due to release November 1st.
EGM's TAKE: It makes sense for Sega to release a demo containing both versions of the levels so that people get an idea of what to expect.

I am developing an application where i have a main activity consisting on the left of a fragment showing products. Depending on the selection, the right part of the landscape-view shows detailed information, where the product's properties can be thoroughly specified. This is the case if the application's running in landscape-mode. If the orientation changes to portrait-mode, then the user first selects a product and then specifies the product's properties by individual dedicated activities, where each activity contains exactly one fragment of the previously mentioned landscape-view.
The problem now comes when I rotate my screen during runtime. Assume that I started the application in portrait mode, and I select the first product (Activity A, Fragment A). The next screen (separate Activity, call it Activity B) will contain a Fragment B where I can specify Property 1 of the product. Now I rotate the screen. The application will then show the landscape-view where the first product is selected, and ALL fragments dedicated to product configuration are shown at the right. Is there a solution that I can retain the configurations done by the user in the separate activity (i.e. Fragment B, Activity B) in such a manner that the land-scape view receives the state such that the details view can properly show the hitherto done configurations?
To summarize:
I am in Activity A, just containing a list of products (Fragment A) I select the first then I get to a new Activity B, where Fragment B is shown then I rotate my screen then I get back to Activity A, now containing at the left side Fragment A (the list) and at the right side (among others) Fragment B. I want the state of Fragment B in Activity B be available in Activity A, Fragment B.
Hope I could completely specify my question.
TIA Gerald

Pest Control
I wasn't sure where to post this (sorry if in wrong place).
We had Terminix for years, but because of a financial situation plus the fact that they increased their price we can no longer use them at this time. Back in January 2007 when we had mice, we were given glue boards (which we could have bought---and did---at the dollar store). So far no roach problems and I want to keep it that way. Any recommendations on product/s that we can purchase to do it ourselves / and where to find them? There were lots of times that we weren't home and only the outside was treated; to keep the outside creatures from entering our home.
I appreciate any info! Thanks!
Do you have a reason to suspect you will develop a roach problem? DH and I have never had a service like Terminex, nor used any insecticides in our home, yet don't have bug problems. I think it's not a good idea to use insecticides in your home unless there is a good reason for doing so.
None of it is safe if the container has warning or danger on it. I don't keep cardboard boxes in my home except for a few doll boxes and they are stacked off the floor. Bugs love corrugated boxes to nest in. I have only had a roach problem one time in my life and that was when I was young and lived in an area of duplexes, in other words, lots of people in a small area.
I grew up having roaches and was/am terrified of them. My parents home is still infested (so I visit rarely), just because of that. I can remember way back in elementary school one crawled from my bookbag onto the desk where several of us were sitting; I used to have to shake out my shoes each A.M. to rid them of the bugs. Then in 1998 I noticed a few starting in my new home so I figured some must have sneaked into my purse when I had been at my parents. No more, which is why we started pest service and with it, no problems.
Guess my fear now is that I have four very sloppy kids who are always leaving stuff out and I'm acting as sole maid (we're still trying to resolve this!). Just paranoid that without Terminix we'll start having this nightmare reoccur so I'm planning ahead for it now. Thanks!

New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
This has some interesting old Russian ads, handlettered mostly, for those who are interested:
Doesn't display well in Firefox for some reason, gotta use IE.
Personal Art and Design Portal of Ivan Gulkov
What a wealth of work -- thanks for posting this! It's interesting to see, in some of the ads, decorative and artistic styles from the late 19th and early 20th centuries applied to Cyrillic lettering. And it's not often that one gets to see graphic design or advertising from pre-Soviet Russia.
Really fun stuff! Thanks, Ivan!
I wasn't able to see the images in Firefox for some reason, but I can see them in IE. Thanks so much for sharing these!
(edit: I just saw that you included this in your original post. I should read more carefully!)
Fantastic. I love the spooky one with the soap packets resting on the mountain tops in the moonlight.
There's some wonderful stuff in there, and it's interesting to see that the pre-Revolutionary Russian commercial artists were connected to what was going on in Paris. Maybe we'll get lucky and someone will do a book about pre-Revolutionary Russian design!
Doesn't display well in Firefox for some reason, gotta use IE.
I got it working in Safari too. It seems the filenames of the images are identifying them as advertising. Once I figured that out, I disabled AdBlockPlus for that page and reloaded it, and now it works on Firefox.
I think I've seen all of these in a fabulous book "Русский Графический Дизайн" (Russian Graphic Design) by Elena Chernevich, that deals primarily with pre-revolutionary graphic tradition.
Sadly, It hasn't been translated.
For a glimpse, here is an example of a more traditional style from that book.

"Artie, get the popcorn!" you shouted. "The movie's starting!"
"Don't call me that!"
Alfred pulled you onto his lap. "Come on babe; move over so Artie can sit down."
Francis gave a pervyish laugh as your face turned red.
"Ohonhon, you don't want to sit on Alfred's lap, who don't you sit on mine?"
"Shut up you perverted frog!"
"Guys the movie's starting," Matthew whispered.
A small voice from Matthew's bear asked, "Who are you."
Matt sighed, "I'm Matthew "
"Dude, Matt, I didn't see you there!"
"Be quiet Alfie," you said using the nickname you knew he hated. His face turned red and he shut up.
After the movie was over Alfred jumped up and shouted, "THAT WAS AWESOME!"
You had fallen to the floor and on top of Francis.
"Mon cher, all you had to do was-."
"Knock it off," everyone said.
You ended up sitting on Francis's lap for the next movie which was England's choice. Casino Royale.
"That was pretty interesting," you said.
"My turn," Matthew said quietly.

You were peacefully sleeping in your bed, last night you'd been sitting by your computer and now you were really tired. Too bad for you that Ludwig wouldn't let you sleep the whole day as you wished, he needed his daily walks. Ludwig walked up to your bed and licked your face in an attempt to wake you up.

"I'm tired Ludwig.." You groaned.

Oliver Kirkland
I heard rumors of him at school in the mornings. People would always say that he was a deranged killer, and a psycho. He was described as a very..well, 'experienced' man. My friends warned me to watch my back when I would walk home from school in the afternoons. I never understood why he seemed so dangerous, I mean, the guy was supposed to be Jack the Ripper. He was in the 1800s! Surely, he couldn't still be alive..right? 'No, I thought. Absolutely not. He's not real. Just a myth!' At least, I had hoped so...

You woke up the next morning in Italy's bed. Italy was still fast asleep, with his arms around you. A moment later you heard a noise from downstairs and began to smell something. You managed to break free of the Italians grip and started sneaking downstairs. You stared into the kitchen to find a blonde hair man with bright blue eyes cooking. He was cooking wurst, eggs, bacon, and biscuits. You watched him before someone tapped you on the shoulder. You let out a shriek of surprise and fell over. You scooted back into the wall, wincing as your head hit it.
"Rerax it's just me, I'm Kiku and you are?" The man with black hair asked.
"I'm (Name)..." You replied weakly. Kiku held out his hand and you took it. Kiku lead you to the kitchen. He grabbed a few thick textbooks and placed them on a chair before helping you up.

It was hardly covered by your lacey trimmed bra. You looked at your chest, & then looked again at Romano. He looked ready to faint, & he was bright red. Hesitantly, he leaned in, & stroked your face, a tender expression on his face. He kissed you gently, holding both sides of your face. He closed his eyes & deepened the kiss.

Oh what a bad dream this was. She closed her eyes tightly and wished to wake up. The door opened and some one walked in. She opened her eyes and saw Nicolai. He was smiling at her.
"Hello," he crouched down next to her, "here let me help you up." He reached out to pick her up, she flinched and tried to roll away. He frowned and picked her up any way. "You're mine rather you like it or not!" He placed her on the bed, "don't cry." Nicolai touched her cheek and smiled down at her. "Marry me~" She shook her head, which made him smirk, "I wont stop until you do~" he grabbed her wrists and held them above her

USOC Hires Search Firm Spencer Stuart To Help Look For New CEO
Published October 30, 2009
The USOC Thursday announced that it hired Spencer Stuart to work with it on its search for a permanent CEO, a position the organization hopes to fill before January. Jed Hughes of Spencer Stuart's N.Y. office is expected to lead the firm's effort. Spencer Stuart previously assisted the USOC on its searches for a Chief Communications Officer and Chief of Sports Performances. It beat out eight other firms being considered for the job. The USOC also named its nine-member Search & Screening Committee for the CEO position (Tripp Mickle, SportsBusiness Journal).

LIGHT THE FIRE: In Chicago, Philip Hersh noted there were "two noteworthy aspects" to the USOC's announcement. The committee "includes representatives of every USOC constituent group, including two members of the Athletes Advisory Committee," but it "does not include any of the U.S. sports federation (NGB) leaders who have been publicly critical of the current USOC leadership." However, there are "valid reasons for not having the two most outspoken NGB leaders," USA Gymnastics CEO Steve Penny and USA Triathlon CEO Skip Gilbert. Gilbert simply was "not interested in the role," while Penny's name "has been bandied about as a candidate for CEO." Meanwhile, Hersh noted USOC acting CEO Stephanie Streeter and two of her three immediate predecessors, Lloyd Ward and Norm Blake, "all came from corporate backgrounds." So perhaps that is "why the USOC won't a) pay the search firm until 18 months after the CEO is in place and b) retained the right to set the amount of the payment." If the result of the search is "another short-term stiff, the USOC should stiff Spencer Stuart" (CHICAGOTRIBUNE.com, 10/29).

The Sylvain Luc Trio gave Bangalore 60 minutes of terrific music
I admit that my reaction when I arrived at the Leela Palace at 7.25 p.m. on March 20 was probably not typical, but I certainly was dismayed when I was told that the concert was not going to start at 7.30 p.m., but at 8 p.m.
An assortment of the Bangalore elite, or P3Ps if one wants to be less than kind, were standing around happily sipping Seagram 100 Pipers or other beverages and nibbling at short eats, so they were in no hurry to get their ears to work instead of their mouths. They probably agreed with the opinion of the Director of the Alliance Française, who told me: "First we drink. When we are drunk, it sounds better."
In the event, the Sylvain Luc Trio (Luc on guitar, Jean-Marc Jafet on electric bass guitar, and Pascal Rey on drums) actually started performing at 8.30 and finished much too soon, in my opinion, after almost exactly an hour. I'd have happily sacrificed my Fanta and my snacks to have heard another hour of their music. Judging from the enthusiasm of the audience, they too wouldn't have minded more music, even if it meant less food and drink. However, 60 minutes of (terrific) music was all that was on the menu, enough to whet one's appetite, and we had to be satisfied with it.
The trio played six pieces, each thus getting a reasonably long workout of about 10 minutes. Most of the pieces were not named, but they were all probably original compositions of the trio (the first was composed by Jafet and was called "Bella Vista").
They were in a variety of tempos, slow to brisk, and might all have been influenced by Basque music — Luc himself is Swiss-born but claims that Basque music is in his blood — although the trio's style was very much mainstream jazz and not "world music".
Although Luc took a somewhat dominant role in the solo improvisations, all three shared in this department. Jafet's solos were fewer in number, generally shorter and not as ferocious as Luc's. The last number had an extended solo by Rey. The one before that was notable in the improvisation of the instrumentation. Rey worked entirely with a piece of plastic bag throughout this piece, placing it on his chest and patting it with his hands, squeezing it and what-not, all the while taking Jafet's place at the mike in front. His work was somewhat reminiscent of the early jazz pioneers who used an ordinary piece of laundry equipment, a washboard, as a percussion instrument.
Modern French jazz
Jafet meanwhile sat at the drum kit and satisfied himself with beating the drums gently with either his hands (for a short while) or felt-head drumsticks. It was on the last piece that Luc, during his long solo after those of Jafet and Rey, plucked his guitar in a higher and higher register, ending higher than a violin would go. Jafet matched him by playing notes on his bass guitar that would normally be in the range of Luc's instrument. All in all, this was a satisfying illustration of what modern French jazz can do, and a good contribution to the Alliance's "Semaine de la Francophonie" (Francophone week).JAZZEBEL

Nice place. If you plan on cooking there, take a cookie sheet as there is nothing there to bake on. Notified owner of a couple issues and quick responding.
Highly recommended - Great Location
This is the second time we have stopped at the villa and we have also booked it again for next year. The villa iitself has everything needed, it's clean, well equipped and modern, the bbq is a real bonus and the view from the pool area is beautiful, we have only ever had one problem with the pool heat not working correctly the first year, but after one quick call the poperty maintaince people were straight out same day sorting it, The location we find the brilliant, having stopped at many different locations in Orlando this is far the best. All in all, this is the perfect villa for an Orlando holiday.
A great home away from busy tourist destinations.
It's not in the heart of everything, and that's exactly why we chose it. It's a quiet suburban retreat after (very hot) excursions this time of year. The pool was a blessing as was the roofed portion of the patio when a quick storm blew through. The brand new barbeque was christened twice, as we Canadians love our BBQ. Everything was as advertised and spotlessly clean. The layout of the home was perfect for two couples, or two families. The four bedrooms are two on either side of the house. The kitchen was fully stocked. There was loads of tourist magazines to review before each day's outing. Couches so comfy. Comfortable beds, too, and pillows. Laundry and dishwasher made for easy vacationing. Plus lots of towels for the pool. We adored the wildlife every morning and evening poolside. Ibis, cranes, ducks, all came on over for a visit. It felt like they were coming to check out the new human visitors behind the screens. The large pond is chock full of turtles and large fish (not for fishing!) There are a few minor tears in the screens, but there were no bugs to bother us in the evening. Highly recommend and we're checking our calendars to return next year.

GCISD high school bands marching into fall
Grapevine High School Mustang Band is busy warming up for when school kicks off Monday.
However, the Grapevine program will feel a little emptier this year after the death of Brandt Samuel Leondar, the high school's longtime and beloved assistant director of bands.
Leondar, 53, who was affectionately known as "Mr. L," died July 5 after a brief illness. He retired in June after 30 years of teaching in public schools in Texas, beginning his Grapevine High School career in 1990.
Stratos Maragoudakis, clarinet section leader and senior representative of the school's band council, recalled the educator.
"I remember how passionate 'Mr. L.' was for the program," the senior said. "He was always getting there early and staying late. He really cared about his students and establishing a friendship with them."
In lieu of flowers, the family requested that donations be made to The Brandt Leondar Memorial. The memorial provides financial assistance to band students there, enabling them equal access to the music program and assisting students with marching band fees, private lessons, band trips costs and other activities.
Leondar was remembered in a Star-Telegram obituary as being "well loved by his students."
"He was committed to not only teaching students to love and aspire in music, but he was there for them on a personal level — encouraging them in school, in life, in relationships," the obituary read.
According to the district's website, Leondar's accolades included receiving Grapevine-Colleyville I.S.D. Distinguished Teacher Award in 2001, 2013 and 2014.

Love's Travel Stops will introduce fast-fill compressed natural gas fueling capability for heavy-duty trucks at its travel stop located on Interstate 40 at exit 74 in east Amarillo, Texas. The Love's Fast-Fill CNG station is expected to be open by the second quarter of 2014.
Love's Fast-Fill CNG expansion in Texas began with eight locations, spanning highways between Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio and will now include this addition to the I-40 corridor. With Amarillo, Love's will offer fast-fill CNG at 11 of its travel stops across Texas and Oklahoma. As part of its expansion, Love's has purchased 55 CNG-powered trucks for its own fuel hauling fleet, including five for its Amarillo location.
Love's Fast-Fill CNG gives professional drivers a similar experience to filling up with Love's diesel or DEF. Love's CNG stations are designed to deliver a fill rate of at least 10 gallons per minute in all lanes, meaning a driver can fill a 100 gallon-equivalent tank in 10 minutes or less.
We offer e-newsletters that deliver targeted news and information for the entire fleet industry.

- BECAUSE THEY'RE THERE is about climbing mountains – nothing else. Well, actually, there are one or two other things. But it's mostly about climbing mountains. And fish and chips. And politics. And doing a bit of fell running. And wondering where the hell your life's gone – and where it might be going next. And cooking kippers in a wet tent. And people you bump into who do similar things. Actually, that last one doesn't happen very often . . .

While there is no proven correlation between the quality of one's educational institution and the quality of one's professional competence, it is often an indicator.
