Some world records are better than others. But the next attempt at the world land speed record will be something special. Andy Green hopes to be the first man to drive a car at 1,000mph – that's about four-and-a-half times faster than the current F1 cars. We met him and his team as they take their first trip on the road to glory. Not quite so fast, but equally adept at the wheel, is David Coulthard, who put a souped-up prototype Mercedes- AMG GT through its paces at the Red Bull Ring in Spielberg; we called shotgun. Also in Austria, we've got the incredible story of the man who ran further than 36,000 other racers across the globe to win the first Wings For Life World Run. All this and much more. We hope you enjoy the issue.
Thank you for picking up the first edition of the Charisma+2 Quarterly. I created this as a means to showcase gamers, models, and industry professionals who fully realize that, yes, we are gamers, but also real people too! If you would like to have a printed copy of it, please visit Cplus2magazine.com/issues Sometimes we need inspiration, sometimes we have some hope to give. At times, we just want to be fun and silly or play games and cosplay. Other times, we simply want to discover the real story of the lives behind some of the industry's leading professionals (such as will be showcased in our column, "Level Up IRL"). We also get emails asking, "whatever happened to___ (model)?" You will get to read about some of the incredible things our former and current models have been doing. Eight years ago, I made a very conscientious choice to uplift spirits, provide safe haven, and create possibilities for girls (now guys too) in the gaming industry. I had Three Rules: No Jerks, No Drama, and Always Be Professional. These tenants still stand and have brought together some of the finest guys and girls I have ever met. Each decision at Charisma+2 has been based with some crucial foundational questions in mind. Will this: encourage the hopeless? represent without bias the strengths of those who apply? instill a strong business ethic that can be carried over into the workplace after they move on? benefit those less privileged? and make sound business sense? In addition, choosing to have strict authentic geek standards, narrowed me to reject non-gamer Playboy and mainstream models who would have brought in significant revenue, but not complied with the other requirements. It may have taken a bit more work to get the agency where I wanted by sticking to my principles, but I do not regret it because it meant I was able to keep my self integrity and that of my agency. Going forward in 2015, we look forward to expanding our celebrations of some fabulous geek girls and guys who are friends of Charisma+2 featuring the crafts, charity work, and excitement of people just like you!
This past year seemed to move by in a blink. And while I dread getting older, I look forward to the fact that a new year means a dozen new issues of my favorite magazine. This month is all about healthy living and, being the paragon of sedentary lifestyle that I am, I learned a ton. For example, I learned that coffee, while delicious and required for daily activity, is not an acceptable food group. That said, I still encourage readers to take a peek at Tess Catlett's feature on Relevant Roasters (page 14), a new roastery in Memphis' up-and-coming arts district that packs a bunch of tasty and rare beans that you won't find anywhere else. And speaking of things with a disputed position on the food pyramid, we've also got a feature on the sometimes-a-fruit-but-not-really goodness of tomatoes (page 88). Then there's our main features for this month, a pair of beautifully designed and fun pieces on living an active life in the MidSouth without breaking too much of a sweat. Not many can say they spent their whole work week studying golf (page 62) or observing yoga (page 68), but these sort of fun diversions are pretty much par for the course for Click's staff. In the spirit of good health, we've eschewed our normal cocktail feature this month in favor of a delicious smoothie from So Fresh Mobile Juice Bar, The Blueberry Matcha (page 20). I had one of these myself and rest assured, it's somehow tastier than any milkshake. So from all of us here at Click to the rest of the MidSouth: Have a great 2015. Love what you do, do what you love. And I promise we won't judge if you break a resolution or two. Read on,
Tennis is a game of motion. Ambitious stars and absorbing story lines will make this Australian Open an ongoing adventure. The first Grand Slam of the season begins a fertile month for fresh starts, but this Australian Open is about renewing ongoing power struggles. Five-time champion Serena Williams aims to return to the final for the first time in five years and retain her top spot. No. 2 Maria Sharapova warmed up for Melbourne winning Brisbane and can close the gap on Williams with a deep run. French Open finalist Simona Halep and Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitova, who each won hard-court tune-up titles, are both capable of playing deep into the second week as is two-time champion Vika Azarenka, now a dangerous floater who renews her annual Australian Open rivalry with Sloane Stephens in the first round. A recharged Venus Williams will try to sustain the form she showed winning her 46th career title in Auckland. On the men's side, world No. 1 Novak Djokovic is back at his most successful Slam playing for a fifth Australian Open title as Stan Wawrinka launches defense of his first Grand Slam title. Roger Federer tries to extend an astounding run of 11 consecutive Melbourne semifinals, while Rafael Nadal aims to shake the struggles he's experienced since falling in the Wimbledon fourth round. Australia offers the prospect of arrivals and departures. Contesting his 19th consecutive Australian Open, 2005 finalist Lleyton Hewitt may be making his Melbourne farewell. A wave of young Aussies, including Nadal's Wimbledon conqueror, Nick Kyrgios, and Thanasi Kokkinakis are intent on making their mark. Spin is vital to the pro game—it makes the dynamic angles, dipping passes and devious drop shots possible—but in Melbourne players can't feign preparation. A sometime sweltering sun and steamy conditions can drain the desire and legs from even the fittest specimens in the field. You can't fake fitness down under. The journey through Oz can be demanding, but the ride is often rewarding. We hope you enjoy it and this preview issue.

Moving on to being active, hundreds of young professionals have been a part of the kickball frenzy for the past few years. Our city now has a soft foam dodgeball league, which is a great way to make new friends and stay active. One of our favorite local artists, Davis Nix, has released his first album.

If helping others was one of your resolutions, our article about Friendship Mission is a must read, as they are looking for more support and volunteers. As always, the LIST is a great way to get to know some local entrepreneurs and executives making their mark in Montgomery.

Last year, at the dawn of 2014, I was apprehensive about what the new year would bring. Things were changing in Austin and the magazine business, and for the first time in a long time, I was having a hard time seeing the path laid out before us. So we did the only thing we were absolutely sure of: We put one foot in front of the other, one issue after the next and made a commitment to really listen to our readers and advertisers about what they were looking for from us. And we got our answer, loud and clear. Do more of what we do best: inspiration, real and authentic connections with women in Austin, information about this great city we inhabit and, yes, more beauty, fashion and glam. Throughout the year, we have been adding, changing and tweaking, but with this January 2015 issue, we present to you a re-packaged, re-defined commitment to all things women and all things Austin. I am so thankful for our amazing team, who work tirelessly and filled with passion on Austin Woman. The creative and design team—Deb, Niki, Molly, Jen—did an amazing job diving deep and coming up with creative editorial plans and a beautiful new design to house them. Cynthia, Kelly and Maggie brought great ideas from the field so we can make sure to follow the pulse of our readers and supporters. We present this newly designed issue— and all the future issues to come—with love and appreciation for you, our readers and this great city full of extraordinary women.

Customers noticed that by dropping the center of mass, and lowering all the weight that is carried in the rack, there snowmobile performed better under load. e Mountain racks design allowing Ski Doo XM factory Holes to be used to install the rack was an added bonus as well. eabuse of rollovers and bumpy access roads were no match for the strong yet lightweight Mountain rack. A unanimous winner!

Holy Cow – the Batcycle becomes the Batpod
Article Summary
Comic book hero Batman has been with us for 70 years next year, becoming one of the most popular fictional characters of all time. Along the way, Batman became more technologically savvy, using wondrous gadgets such as the bat-car, bat-computer, bat-cave, bat-signal, bat-radar, bat-camera and bat-cycle to fight an array of adversaries such as the Joker, Catwoman, the Penguin, Two-Face, the Riddler, and Scarecrow. With the latest celluloid interpretation of the Batman character set for global release next week (The Dark Knight), we're about to see another interpretation of the Bat-cycle – the Batpod.

Prairie Dog State Park at Keith Sebelius Reservoir west of Norton, in Norton County, hosts two vintage 19th century buildings – a renovated adobe house and Hillmon Schoolhouse, a one-room school.
The adobe house is the only one in Kansas on its original location and preserved as a museum. The house was probably constructed in 1892 by the John Spencer family. It was built with bricks formed from a mix of mud and straw, called adobe. A horse walking in a circular trench to which dirt, water, and straw were added was used to create the proper consistency. Once the adobe bricks were laid in place, they were covered with a smooth finish coat of adobe. The adobe is still visible on the interior walls.
The house remains in its original location. As the state park was being built, a volunteer group worked to preserve the building. They fixed the roof, walls, and windows, cleaned the interior, and furnished it with donated antique furniture. The Adobe House has recently been extensively renovated. The grounds around the adobe house feature a wooden-wheel windmill, and a two-horse, dirt-moving wagon unearthed during the dam's construction.
Hillmon Schoolhouse is the second iteration of the school. The original was a combination dugout and log structure overlooking the Sappa Valley in northwestern Norton County about 1 ½ miles south of the Kansas-Nebraska line. It had two windows, a door in the rear and desks fashioned of wood slabs with pegs for support. The current building was built in 1886 about ½ mile south of the original. It hosted community, church, and school events for many years. It was moved to Prairie Dog State Park in the late 1960s and was dedicated at its current location in September 1969.
Camping at Prairie Dog include 4 reservable cabins (2 modern and 2 primitive), 60 electric/water sites, 12 electric-only sites, and more than 130 primitive sites. Reservable sites are available. Shower and restroom facilities are conveniently located, as are two RV dump stations. A 1.4- mile nature trail complete with interpretive signage is a great way to explore the park and observe wildlife.
Historical interpretation is a hallmark of this park. Two vintage 19th century buildings are preserved here, including a one room school and renovated adobe house.
Sebelius Reservoir is well known for its excellent fishing opportunities. In recent years, anglers have found productive fishing for black bass, walleye, wiper, crappie, catfish and saugeye.
The 6,400-acre Norton Wildlife Area offers good prospects for pheasant, waterfowl and rabbits. Both whitetailed and mule deer can be found here, as well as a variety of furbearers.

Cano returns as Yanks tab CC vs. rival Orioles
Facing Gonzalez in opener, lefty tries to reverse disappointing trend
The Yankees are playing a dangerous game in their quest to climb back in the hunt for a postseason spot.
Time is running out, and New York's 19-19 record since the All-Star break has done the club no good as it tries to catch the teams it trails in the standings.
On Friday night in the Bronx, the Yankees will welcome back slugging second baseman Robinson Cano, who left Tuesday's game at Toronto and missed Wednesday's loss after being struck on the left hand by a pitch. With Cano back, the Bronx Bombers will get a crack at gaining ground on one of the clubs above them in both the American League Wild Card and the AL East -- the Baltimore Orioles.
The Orioles sit 3 1/2 games back of the A's for the second AL Wild Card spot. Baltimore is also 1 1/2 games up on the Yankees, who will send struggling left-hander CC Sabathia to the mound for the series opener.
Sabathia allowed four runs in each of his two starts against Baltimore this year. During the season's second half, the southpaw has made it through the seventh inning just once, and he's posted a 7.30 ERA in seven starts since the Midsummer Classic.
"I feel like I can't stop the bleeding," Sabathia said after his most recent outing -- a loss to the Rays in St. Petersburg on Saturday. "If something gets going, it's hard for me to make a pitch."
Those aren't exactly encouraging words coming from the mouth of the club's Opening Day starter, but catcher Austin Romine said he thought Sabathia's first five innings on Saturday were among the best he's pitched all year. Sabathia came undone in the sixth, allowing three runs on four hits and a walk in the frame.
Right-hander Miguel Gonzalez (8-6, 3.77 ERA) will get the start for Baltimore. Gonzalez made his first relief appearance since July 1, 2012, on Sunday, and he made another on Tuesday in Boston.
Orioles manager Buck Showalter chose to give Gonzalez extra time between starts because of a quirk in the schedule that led to two off-days within a week of each other. Still, Showalter wanted Gonzalez to face hitters to stay fresh, so the righty was inserted into the two ballgames and tossed a combined 1 1/3 scoreless innings.
"He's just pitched well. It's some games that he's had some command of his fastball and offspeed pitches," Showalter said. "Pitchers and players are creatures of memory. That's why the first thing I always look at before a series is how guys do in a certain ballpark. There are certain things that don't waver a whole lot. ... Miguel will be challenged tomorrow. They've got a lot of their people back and they're playing well."
New York has taken both of the series between the two clubs at Yankee Stadium this season, but Baltimore holds the edge in the overall season series, 7-5, by virtue of its dominance at Camden Yards.
Orioles: Team looking to add another bat
Baltimore is actively looking to add a hitter, with multiple waiver claims out and at least two that could help boost the club's lineup the last month of the season.
The Orioles were awarded the claim on Seattle's Michael Morse and Minnesota's Josh Willingham and are negotiating with those two clubs in hopes of working out a deal. They have until Friday at noon ET to work out a deal.
The Orioles most recently dropped their series to the Red Sox and have had poor production from the designated hitter spot all season.
Yankees: Soriano thriving in pinstripes
Left fielder Alfonso Soriano has been red hot since returning to the Yankees in a late-July trade. He has hit 10 home runs in August alone.
"It's great to me," Soriano said. "When I left here [in 2004], I wasn't sad, because it's part of the game, but I thought that I had something to prove to myself, my teammates and the fans."
Obviously, Soriano hasn't played in enough games with the Yankees to qualify, but his .561 slugging percentage is the best on the team.
Worth noting
• The Orioles have just 39 errors in 132 games. The 2003 Mariners hold the current single-season record for fewest errors with 65.
• In 40 career at-bats against Sabathia, Baltimore catcher Matt Wieters is hitting .175 with 11 strikeouts.
• The Yankees are .500 (43-43) in night games this season.

Trail users take advantage of new system
The recently improved Spanish Traverse Trail, part of the South Park Trail System, offers this view of American Valley. The trails are located just a handful of miles outside Quincy and offer users breathtaking views. Photo by James Wilson
Trail users in Plumas County let out a sigh of relief last weekend — not to mention some deep breaths. The nonmotorized portion of the South Park/Mount Hough Trail System was completed last Saturday thanks to the help of several local volunteers who spent their weekend building and finishing trails outside Quincy.
The trail project, which allows outdoor opportunities for multiple trail users, has been in the works for years now. The environmental analysis for the trails was completed in August 2013, and work began on the system last month.
Prior to the Plumas National Forest's adoption of the trail system, the Central Plumas trails made by specific users were not regulated. There was no standard on how the trails were built and subsequently they excluded some user groups.
The Sierra Buttes Trail Stewardship partnered with the Plumas National Forest through a cost-share agreement, which provided local manpower to leverage the allocated funds.
According to SBTS Trail Programs Director Tara Stone, more than 200 volunteers pitched in close to 1,300 hours of work on the trail since last September. The stewardship mainly attracted the volunteers through several workdays. The final workday on the project was held last Saturday.
The stewardship, with volunteer help, widened trails to at least 18 inches of tread, cleared areas above trails to allow room for horses, cleared brush, filled holes and leveled bumps to flatten the trails. The stewardship also built more than a mile of brand new trail and added switchbacks to pre-existing trails.
Another problem the trails had before the system was adopted was that not many people knew where the trails were or where they went. Signage was installed to help with the problem, with plans for more to be added later.
The Rotary Club of Quincy started the initial signage effort, purchasing and installing multiple directional signs along the South Park trails. These signs not only provide direction, but reminders of trail etiquette.
According to Erika Brenzovich from the Mount Hough Ranger District, the Plumas National Forest plans to take over the signage from this point on. In addition to directional signs, the Forest Service plans to install trailhead bulletin boards in three locations: the South Park trailhead, the Cascade trailhead and the Spanish Creek trailhead.
The bulletin boards will detail a larger map of the trails and offer pocket maps for users. The Forest Service is waiting to finalize the recreational trail maps, then will install the bulletin boards at the Cascade trailhead and Spanish Creek trailhead sometime this spring.
The Forest Service is finishing up the South Park trailhead design. Construction on the trailhead is planned for this summer or fall. Included in the design is an equestrian parking area.
According to Brenzovich, work on the Mount Hough portion of the trail system will continue with existing Resource Advisory Committee funds this spring, and can continue pending the county's grant proposal with the state.
After completing the South Park recreational trail map, the Plumas National Forest plans to work on a Mount Hough map to show which trails are open.

"Wonderful collection for Saki fans"
I would have given this 5 stars but for the fact that the memory of an old record from the public library I listened to as a child is hard to live up to. The narrators here are very good though. If you are not familiar with Saki writings - then this is an excellent collection for those who love the subtle wit and dry British humor that was his style (in order to appreciate it fully). Also included in this book are a few stories that were not meant to be comedic. He was a master of what he did and I enjoyed this audio very much.
"Worth the credits * and * the hangover."
Yeah, I meant hangover. This is incredibly well written, and it is so long, that you start to get used to having this great listen available. You get so used to it (with its 7 part download) that it is a bit dependency forming. You get a bit of a buzz. The more the complicated story with its many many characters develops and the more you start to understand what is going on and who the heroes are going to be and how the magic works...the more enjoyable it gets - and the farther you drop when it is over.
But not over. Ouch.
With book 2 not even in sight for 2013... what are you supposed to do until whenever 'then' is?
But still. I would do it again... (I probably will as part of the withdrawal)
The story is mostly on the battlefield - which I don't usually go for much- but this author writes like no other. Even the beginning of the chapters - where other authors quote of bit Shakespeare or something just as old to add a bit of gravitas - Brandon Sanderson creates his own ancient text to quote. And it ends up being clues to a slowing revealed mystery. 5 star stuff. If you want something lighter, and shorter, I suggest getting Sanderson's Alcatraz series which is excellently narrated and laugh out loud fun for any age.
Still, the emotional investment in this Stormlight Archive is an experience well worth the credits, the time, and (sadly) the wait for the next one.
"Worth putting up with a mediocre narrator"
This one is like a trilogy all in one book, it is so long and well developed. But I hope there will be a sequel anyway.
The magic is unique and the characters are diverse and interesting - though I confess it took a chapter or two for me to really be into the storyline - after that I was hooked. The end gives excellent closure - something I think all books should give.
Insulting a narrator's performance is something I usually don't do. Unfortunately this narrator gives a 1980's surfer dude cadence to several key characters (which doesn't fit). His in between the dialogue voice is very pleasant though.
* Still worth a credit for the many hours of high quality fiction.
"Wonderful rendition from a talented narrator"
This will be the third year I have listened to this during the holiday season. The original prose by Dickens is a refreshing delight to the modern mind - and the modern narrator shows amazing versatility through all the character voices. There are many television and movie versions of this story to enjoy but, as with most great literature, nothing beats the book.
"Family road trip necessity"
I had two children (age 5 and 7) in the car for a 10 hour round trip. This audiobook was the saving grace (saving sanity) of the day. The narrator's voice is pleasant to adult ears and completely captivating to the children's. They loved it so much they requested it over the portable DVD on the way home. Really. It also kept their attention so well we even had less rest-stop requests. - but it gets better - Since the story is actually about children behaving badly and then learning to be good through Mrs. Piggle Wiggle - my children were careful not to behave badly. Pure magic.
"Third in the "trilogy" Not the end."
So Amazon.com has been calling this series a trilogy, it's not. No closure here. But that's actually ok. Turns out this is the best one yet (though I think the 4th book should be it). The first book, The Demon King, was a slow builder as the foundations of the characters, their past, and their environments was filled out by the author with care. The second book, The Exiled Queen, had more happening. But this third one is full of action driving the story forward at a much quicker pace. There are many exciting developments and I was caught by surprise at the sudden announcement of the narrator saying, "The End." I should have noticed the subtle difference in the publisher description as a 'seven realms novel' instead of 3rd in a trilogy. But the listening hours were long enough and the story definitely engaging enough that I wasn't too put out. The narrator is limited in her range of believable male voices but is still enjoyable. I will be getting the next one... (I don't repeat story synopsis in a review since that is found in the book description already, but, since no ratings are given it should be said that all 3 so far have been completely 'clean' of adult content for anyone who is concerned about that)
"Worth Multiple Listens"
Snuff is packed with action, interesting players, witty lines, thought provoking situations, and enough comedy to lighten the dark moments. This latest Sam Vimes installment is well worth the time and credit. In fact the quality of these books seems to just get better as they go (which is unusual to say the least) . However, it is not necessary to have read the previous ones to enjoy this as a fully stand alone novel. The author always gives a satisfying ending to each one in the series. All the suspense and the cliffhangers are contained and completely brought to fruition within each book. I wish some of my other favorite authors could manage this feat! The character development is also incredible- if you listen to this one first, you might want to then go to the first, much simpler story, "Guards Guards" and work your way through to "Thud", a relisten of "Snuff" and a more fuller appreciation of the growing complexity (and charisma) of one of my favorite Discworld Characters. [for listeners who would like a content rating; some bits of situational violence but nothing inappropriate for 10+]
"Publisher summed it up"
This book is pretty short, in fact the publisher's description is almost all that happens in it - right up to the end. I suspect that the second book could be the first one you listen to and not be confused. It is written and narrated for a young audience (a magic tree house age group). I recommend listening to the audio sample to see if the overly soft tones of the narrator don't bore you. I gave it 3*s since I did become curious to see what would happen next but it's probably not worth a credit to mature listeners.
"Easy listening"
Written very much in the style of an Alice Hoffman book, this one has several very enjoyable characters and an interesting story. There is magic and (while it is definitely NOT for the Fantasy Genre) it does lighten up this literary equivalent of a 'chick flick'. The female characters are believable and you come to care about them very quickly. The male characters are a bit 2 dimensional though and serve more as a narrative device than a place in the cast.
That said, it kept my attention throughout and I did enjoy it. I think it also worth mentioning that nearly all the great books in any genre have some romance in them...
"I keep Re-Listening to this one!"
I enjoyed the first book, Accidental Sorcerer, but this one is even better. It is pretty much a guarantee that anyone who liked the first will love this one. The narrator is great, he portrays the characters so well you forget you are listening to only one voice. Though the focus shifts slightly from the main character of the first book to Mellisand, Gerald still plays a large and very interesting part in this one. In fact, it is his character that develops the most by the end of the story. I will definitely get the third one!
"Original and Memorable"
This story is set in a world where wizarding is a normal (though specialized) job. The main character Gerald becomes more 'real' to the reader as the plot progresses from a simple episode to a much more dramatic and involved ending. It is fun and interesting and clean enough for young listeners - but there is plenty of intellectual pondering for the older crowd. The characters are well written and fully fleshed out to become a memorable experience for you. I have listened to this twice - and the sequel is even better and more fun!
(P.S. I am a big Pratchett fan too, but this is apples and oranges. Take it on its own merits)

I am extremely flattered with the proposal you make me of holding a mutual correspondence, in which I expect to find motives to serve you, being with the most sincere regard and esteem Sir Your most obl. he. Servant [Draft by Miro] His Excellency Dan1. Smith Brigr. G1. & Commander of Miro District &ca &ca &ca Petition of People of Arkansas to Declare War on the Osage May 8, 1789 To Senor Don Joseph Valliere, Captain of the Kegiment of Infantry of Louisiana and Commandant of the Post and District of Carlos III of Arkansas. The hunters and inhabitants of the aforesaid post and river of Arkansas whose signatures appear below, lay before Your Lordship with the most profound humility their present state of great poverty, for they are not able to support their families or to pay their debts. The reason for this is that we are robbed by the Osages not only of the products of the hunt but even of our shirts. The Osages take our scalps and carry them to their villages; we are left without any means to help ourselves, and this year we have all been in the same condition. This is very grievous to us, for this river is of great value. Therefore— We humbly petition Your Lordship, in view of the above, to be pleased to communicate it to the governor general of this province with the object that he may permit us to go to war against the said Osages. We are all of one accord in requesting that we be given aid with the object of destroying them, for we believe it will be easy. In this way the river will bo free. Those who cannot go will pay, each according to his means. We hope to receive this favor from the well-known kindness of Your Lordship. Arkansas, May 5,1789. J. BT.

Since 1960, APWA has sponsored National Public Works Week. Across North America, our more than 28,000 members in the US and Canada use this week to energize and educate the public on the importance of the contribution of public works to their daily lives: planning, building, managing and operating the heart of our local communities and building the quality of life.
If you have questions about NPWW or art requests, please contact Jon Dilley via email or call 816-595-5251.
Instituted as a public education campaign by the American Public Works Association (APWA) in 1960, NPWW calls attention to the importance of public works in community life. The Week seeks to enhance the prestige of the often-unsung heroes of our society-the professionals who serve the public good every day with quiet dedication.
APWA encourages public works agencies and professionals to take the opportunity to make their stories known in their communities. Over the years the observances have taken many forms, including parades, displays of public works equipment, high school essay contests, open houses, programs for civic organizations and media events. The occasion is marked each year with scores of resolutions and proclamations from mayors and governors, as well. Some special highlights of NPWW include a United States Senate resolution affirming the first National Public Works Week in 1960, letters of acknowledgment from Presidents Dwight Eisenhower and Lyndon Johnson, and a Presidential Proclamation signed by John F. Kennedy in 1962.
From the beginning, the selection of a Top Ten list of exceptional public works professionals has been a cornerstone of NPWW. The program has identified more than 400 men and women who reflect the highest standards of professional conduct for public works officials. These honorees have been recognized for discharging critical responsibilities in connection to the design, construction, maintenance and/or operation of major public works projects or activities in large and small municipalities throughout North America. Often their accomplishments are particularly noteworthy in relation to the limited manpower and financial resources available to them.
National Public Works Week is observed each year during the third full week of May. Through NPWW and other efforts, APWA seeks to raise the public's awareness of public works issues and to increase confidence in public works employees who are dedicated to improving the quality of life for present and future generations.
The National Public Works Week How-To Guide is one of several resources the Association makes available to agencies to assist them in the development and implementation of their own individual celebrations. With this tool, an agency will learn how to create proclamations and solicit endorsements from government officials, develop media and press releases, write editorials and articles, and generate material for speeches. There are also several suggestions for celebratory activities to be implemented at the local level.

Grille off - Dark Cherry Dark Cherry - Grille on View larger PSB Image T5 Floor-standing speaker (Dark Cherry) Item #: 760IMGT5C 7 Reviews This item is no longer available. Original Price: $299.99 each Shop all Floor-standing Speakers Need help? 1.888.955.6000 Email Chat Ask an expert advisor No pressure, no commission — just lots of good advice from our highly trained staff.
by Kristen Schaub High-performance sound from a slim floor-standing speaker PSB's Image T5 delivers refined sound with the kind of spatial and dynamic accuracy that will make it a hit in any home theater or stereo music system. The Image line borrows from driver technologies developed for PSB's sophisticated Imagine family and their top-tier Synchrony speakers, giving you high-end sound at a budget-friendly price. The Image line also features a slightly different cabinet design than its predecessors, showcasing clean lines that won't clutter up your listening room. PSB's Image speaker family (Image T5 shown center right) High-tech drivers produce clean, well-balanced sound The tweeter uses a powerful neodymium magnet for crystal-clear highs. The Image T5 features a 1" titanium dome tweeter that effortlessly dishes out smooth, uncolored highs. The long-excursion, high-output woofers use the same proprietary ceramic-filled polypropylene cones as the Imagine line. The stiff, lightweight material helps them deliver midrange that's clean and balanced, with excellent imaging. The dual woofer design paired with a port at the front of the enclosure allows for extended, defined bass response uncommon for a speaker this size. Sleek, thoughtful cabinet design All Image speakers have heavy internal bracing and 1-1/8" thick MDF cabinets to ensure impressively solid, acoustically inert enclosures. The cabinets have a traditional look, but with slightly curved tops and fronts to soften it. This family of speakers also features attractive vinyl finishes, allowing the Image speakers to easily integrate into just about any décor. Got wire? Most speakers don't include any.

Very, very happy Written By Dale K., Dallas, PA on Tuesday, October 07, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Decided to upgrade from my PSB Alpha B1s because I needed a bit more in terms of volume. My space is small and my current setup is used only for music. I immediately noticed a huge increase in bass - it filled the room. The vocal clarity is absolutely stunning. I went with the dark cherry instead of the black and they really are elegant looking in that color. Pros: Vocals, bass, looks, dimensions Cons: None yet
Big Sound, Small Footprint Written By burghfan, Ballston Lake, NY on Monday, August 25, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This choice was driven by room dimensions. No room for even a tiny subwoofer and, as it turns out, nothing with a footprint any larger than these speakers would have worked in our space. They are used primarily as TV speakers but are getting increasing use for music - mostly classic rock, jazz, and classical. I wanted something that would eliminate the need for a sub, and these come very close. As they get more and more hours on them, I find the sound opening up and the bass improving. These are light-years ahead of the small Polk RM40T towers they replaced. My wife was very reluctant to make a change, but quickly approved of both the looks and the sound - no small feat. She'd admit her WAF ("wife acceptance factor") has a high threshold. Several things made these speakers work in my small space and may make a difference for you. First, front porting means they can be placed against the wall without harming the sound. Second, the plastic feet can be removed and the rubber pads that normally screw into the feet go in to the speaker instead, saving another few square inches of floor space.. The sound is open, accurate, and detailed. Bass is fine for all but a few pedal tomes if you're listening to classical. If you want home theater speakers, you'll need a sub with these to get the special effects, but that's no surprise. Someday, I may spring for an in-wall sub, but that will round out my mid/deep bass, not provide it. Kudos to sales for nailing it against very tough requirements. Pros: Open, spacious, full-range sound. Excellent bass coverage for its size. Does not color sound noticeably Small, attractive package. Removable feet for reduced footprint. Front porting for placement against wall. Cons: Can't defy the laws of physics - won't get massive bass from any speaker configured similarly.
Great Speaker Written By Brad L, Hartford CT on Thursday, August 21, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Hopefully not a repeat... I really enjoy these speakers. Smooth sound, very attractive package. comparable sound to B&W of similar build Pros: sound Cons: bit deeper size wise than I expected
A new PSB believer Written By johnnybinsea, Seattle, WA on Sunday, July 06, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Well I did a lot of research before I choose what speakers I wanted. I had not heard PCB speakers but all the reviews that I read were all positive. I found them on Crutchfield and because of there 60 day return policy I ordered them. These Speakers are everything I thought and so much more. I bought these to improve my home theater but I cant stop listening to music. These are GREAT speakers.... I love them. Pros: These are great speakers for the price. I cant imagine that you can find anything better. Cons: none
PSB Image T5 Written By Anonymous, Highland Park, NJ on Friday, May 23, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Excellent sound and they look good too. I have been very happy with these since they arrived.
Beautiful Sound, Beautiful Look Written By Jim, Central VA on Sunday, November 18, 2012 I am fortunate enough to live near the Crutchfield store so I can go in and compare the different speakers they offer side by side, they even let me listen to the Thiels even though I had no intention of buying them. When I listened to the PSB series I was amazed at their clarity and depth. Every PSB speaker I listened to had a wonderful sound. I talked with the guys in the store and they highly recommended the PSB brand because of the quality of sound they deliver at such a great price point. I have to say I agreed. I was limited by my wife on the size of the speaker I could put in our living room area so I was thrilled when I saw the small foot print of the T5 speakers. My wife even liked the simple yet stylish beauty of them. I was able to buy the T5s in the outlet center so I got an amazing deal on them but it doesn't matter, they are well worth their list price. Every genre of music I have played on them, from classical to jazz to rock, all sound wonderful. I have them set up in a 3.1 sound system using the PSB Image C5 as my center channel with everything driven by a Marantz 5006. I have to say, they do a great job with movie sound tracks as well as television. I can not stress enough how great these speakers sound. You could easily pay twice as much for speakers and not get half the sound quality. Pros: Great sound clarity and depth with a small foot print. Beautiful looking speakers as well. Cons: Nothing. Unless you want unfairly compare them to speakers that cost three times as much.
wonderful sounding speaker Written By eric, Birmingham, AL on Wednesday, January 26, 2011 I went back and forth between basically every psb speaker trying to decide wants and needs. I decided to go with the most inexpensive knowing that if I was happy with it then money well spent. I have been quite happy with the sound/staging and depth of these speakers. I am powering them with the nad t747 and they they sound great. The first cd I played a few weeks was a live recording of Pearl Jam at Madison Square Garden from May 2010. I was at the concert so it was interesting to so see how it would remind me of being there. We had great seats but this setup put us just feet from the stage in 'feel'. It's been a great purchase. Voices clear and detailed, adequate bass for stereo listening, good mids and highs, detailed, no detectable cabinet resonance to me. Resonance was one of my bigger concerns at this price point but the cabinet is solid. Vinyl on the cabinet has the feel and look of wood too. I do prefer a sub with them for music and ht but for music they are ok without sub dependant on type of music. Yes I would purchase them again.

Economic grid support services by wind and solar PV
A review of system needs, technology options, economic benefits and suitable market mechanisms
September 2014
REserviceS was the first project to investigate wind and solar based grid support services at EU level. It provides technical and economic recommendations for the design of a European market for grid support services, as well as for future Network Codes within the Third Liberalisation Package.
Wind energy scenarios for 2020
July 2014
EWEA's previous wind energy scenarios were published in 2009 ("Pure Power 2") following the adoption of the EU's Renewable Energy Directive. They were subsequently re-published in 2011 ("Pure Power 3"). The scenarios looked at both annual and cumulative installations and included a country breakdown for 2020, but not for intermediate years. The headline figure was 230 GW (of which 40 GW offshore) producing 581 TWh of electricity, meeting 15.7% of electricity consumption. EU electricity consumption for 2020 was projected to be 3,689.5 TWh.
EWEA Annual Report 2013
Building a stable future
June 2014
EWEA saw some significant developments in 2013 with Thomas Becker becoming its new CEO, and Andrew Garrad the new President. The association developed a new strategy in order to reflect the changing nature and situation of the European wind industry, and to turn EWEA into a stronger industry association. Read the 2013 Annual Report to find out more about EWEA's new strategic framework, its services to members and the work undertaken to make it one of the most influential industry associations in Brussels.
Saving water with wind energy
June 2014
Water is a precondition for life, an indispensable resource for the economy, and it plays a fundamental role for the climate. Each EU citizen consumes 4,815 litres of water per day on average, including direct water use (household consumption) and indirect water use (water required to produce industrial and agricultural products) (Vanham & Bidoglio, 2013). All these uses include energy production.
Strategic Research Agenda / Market Deployment Strategy
March 2014
In 2013 the wind energy sector reached 117 GW of installed capacity in Europe, and would, in a normal wind year, produce 257 TWh of electricity, enough to cover 8% of the EU's electricity consumption.
Avoiding fossil fuel costs with wind energy
March 2014
During 2011 Europe spent €406 billion (bn) on importing fossil fuels rising to €545 bn in 2012. This is around three times more than the cost of the Greek bailout up to 2013. Europe imports over half its energy in the form of fossil fuels, resulting in exposure to volatile fossil fuel prices.
Where's the money coming from?
Financing offshore wind farms
November 2013
The European offshore wind energy industry needs to attract between €90 billion and €123 billion by 2020 to meet its deployment target of 40 GW.
TWENTIES project
Final report
October 2013
TWENTIES is a grids project that looks into how to operate grid systems with large amounts of wind and other renewables. It is the largest renewable energy project ever funded by the EU.
The aim of the TWENTIES project is to advance the development and deployment of new technologies which facilitate the widespread integration of more onshore and offshore wind power into the European electricity system by 2020 and beyond.
The next steps for EU climate and energy policy

The EU must decide as soon as possible on an energy and climate policy framework for 2030. This is so investors continue to invest, wind energy continues to grow and deliver all its benefits, and the EU can meet its greenhouse gas reduction commitments of 80-95% by 2050 in the most cost-efficient way.

The EU wind energy sector skills gap
August 2013
The European wind industry has grown rapidly. Installed capacity has increased from around 13 GW in 2000 to more than 100 GW in 2012. A consequence of this has been a failure for skills development to keep pace. This report shows that the European wind industry can play a key role in combatting unemployment.
Nearly 50,000 additional trained staff will be needed by the industry by 2030. By that year, operations and maintenance will become the greatest source of new jobs and demand for trained staff.
There is currently a shortage of 7,000 qualified personnel required by the European wind energy sector each year, a figure that could increase to 15,000 by 2030 if the number of graduates taking courses relevant to the industry does not rise.

The Terry Dwyer Memorial Dublin 5k
Congratulations to all who came out today. We appreciate the support!
Here are this year's results…..
Annually the town of Dublin, New Hampshire gathers to celebrate at Dublin Days. Funds raised through this race go to the Dublin Rec Center and helps fund this needed program for the kids of Dublin. The Dublin 5k brings people early to the event and though it is a small gathering of runners we have some very fast times at this race. It is a rolling hills course that has runners going through quiet back roads and enjoying the rural nature of New Hampshire.
Come out and get an early start at the Dublin Days and run to support a good cause. The Dublin 5k is run in memory of Terry Dwyer, a great runner who was loved by many.
The first 100 that register will get a snazzy 2013 t-shirt to show off at the fair later on.
