Kwekwe (/ˈkweɪkweɪ/ KWAY-kway) (known until 1983 as Que Que[1]), is a city in central Zimbabwe.
It is located in Kwekwe District, in Midlands Province, in the center of the country, roughly equidistant from Harare to the northeast and Bulawayo to the southwest. Its population stood at 47,607 in 1982, 75,425 in 1992 and the preliminary result of the 2002 census suggests a population of 88,000. In 2012, the city's population was estimated at 100,900 people. It is a centre for steel and fertiliser production in the country.
Kwekwe and neighbouring Redcliff are the headquarters of Zimbabwe Iron and Steel Company (ZISCO), the country's largest steelworks. It also hosts the Zimbabwe Iron and Smelting Company, the largest ferrochrome producer, and one of the biggest power generating plants, ZESA-Munyati, in Munyati, a suburb of Kwekwe. Kwekwe is Zimbabwe's richest city in terms of minerals.
Kwekwe town was founded in 1898 as a gold mining town, and hosts Zimbabwe's National Mining Museum. The town remains an industrial centre of the country. The name stems from the Zulu word "isikwekwe", which means "scurvy", "mange" or "scab".[2] Popular belief states that Kwekwe is named after the croaking noise made by the nearby river's frogs.
The town is situated on Zimbabwe's Highveld at an altitude of 1,220 metres (4,000 ft), above sea level. It is located in the tropics but its high altitude modifies this to a warm temperate climate. The average annual temperature is 19 °C (66 °F).[3] As with much of the Highveld, summers are long but not hot as the temperature depends on the amount of cloudiness and indirectly the amount of rain received. Drought years are hotter than wet years. The climate is hot and wet during the summer rainy season from mid November to mid March, with cool, dry weather from May to mid-August in the winter season, and warm dry weather from August to mid November. Winters are characterised mainly by their cold nights, with an average minimum temperature of 7 °C (45 °F), and are the sunniest time of the year.
Culture and recreation[edit]
Kwe Kwe has always been a festive and social centre with warm inhabitants and a mild political atmosphere, and is worth a short stopover if time allows.during summer most of the people spend time at public swimming pools
Soccer and cricket are the main sports in the city, just as in the rest of the country. Kwekwe hosts one of Zimbabwe's Major provincial cricket sides – Mid West Rhinos. Their cricket ground has been host to several first class and one day matches and has even hosted some internationals – most notably against Kenya. Kwekwe also hosts a variety of touring sides versus Zimbabwe 'A' teams. Kwekwe hosts two football (soccer) clubs, the Lancashire Steel (named after a local steel company) and Kwekwe Cables. The Kwekwe Queens Club is also a reputable sporting establishment, with a sizeable membership and drinking crowd. Lancashire Steel FC, the main team in the city has been in the PSL a number of times. At its home stadium, Baghdad Stadium, it has hosted a number of big teams in the country, including Dynamos FC, and Highlanders FC. Golf tournaments are hosted by Kwekwe Golf club. Almost all of the schools in Kwekwe play -cricket
Tongai Moyo and Bob Nyabinde are popular singers in the country who hail from Kwekwe. Kwekwe is a major stop for many music groups in the country who perform in the Mbizo Stadium. The cricketer Charles Coventry also hails from Kwekwe – he is best known for equalling the ODI World Record of 194 runs in an innings. It is also the birthplace of former cricketer Norman Featherstone. A stampede at Mbizo Stadium killed 11 people in 2014.
Kwekwe is well endowed with many educational facilities. Most of the educational institutions are state-run. For university education, the closest facilities are 60 km away in Gweru, the Midlands Province capital, at Midlands State University.
- Primary and secondary schools
Like most urban areas in the country, the city of Kwekwe is serviced by many schools. Mbizo High School and Manunure High School, recently expanded to offer A-level classes, serve the high density suburb of Mbizo. The middle-class suburbs close to the city centre have Kwekwe High School and Goldridge College plus the primary schools that include Goldridge Primary School, Fitchlea Primary School, Kwekwe Junior High School and Globe & Phoenix Primary SchoolMaryward Primary School, among others. There is alomost one primary school for about four sections of the high density areas
- Tertiary education
Kwekwe Polytechnic is the only tertiary education institution in Kwekwe. Sable Chemicals and ZISCO Steel run apprenticeship programs with the polytechnic and with other universities in Zimbabwe.
Residential areas[edit]
The residential suburbs in the city are divided into higher and lower density areas. The main surbubs in the town are Mbizo Township, Amaveni Township and Fitchlea.[4]
Kwekwe's suburbs are divided into low cost housing, residential housing and also industrial and railway housing. Kwekwe has only one set of traffic lights which are just outside the city centre on a road leading to the high density suburb of Mbizo.
Amaveni Township and Mbizo Township are the two low-cost housing suburbs. These two slum areas were primarily built close to the mines for the use of mineworkers and the most successful businesses, especially for local bars known as beer halls serve this customer base. Then there are the middle-class homes in the Fitchlea area. This area is made up of big three- and four-bedroom homes and is still home to wealthy families despite the collapse of the economy.
Masasa Park and New Town are among the wealthier suburbs. The very wealthy upper-class families reside mugomo (on the mountain) in the suburb of Chicago although New Town is considered the richest area in the town. This is subdivided into mini-suburbs such as Hazeldene. The homes in this area are significantly larger than most, and are usually staffed with 2–4 domestic workers and, at times, security guards.
The town lies on the Bulawayo – Harare railway line. It is home to two mosques, a meetinghouse for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Seventh-day Adventist Churches, Salvation Army, Protestant and Catholic churches.
Kwekwe has paved roads leading to Gweru, Kadoma, Mvuma and Gokwe Business Centre hence it is considered a well-connected city. Besides being close to the geographical centre of the country, Kwekwe is also strategically located within the Midlands metropolitan area. Kwekwe, together with Gweru, Munyati, Kadoma and Redcliff form a single customer base for local commercial enterprises.
Industry and economy[edit]
As elsewhere in Zimbabwe, a high proprtion of the population depends on the informal sector, possibly more than half of the population. Many self-employed miners carry out illegal digging work just north of the city, panning for gold, one of the most lucrative sources of income. Other residents engage in less strenuous work as cobblers, carpenters, TV and radio repairmen, and vendors selling anything from onions to meat.
Gold is mined in the city, the reason the city was established. At one stage, the Globe and Phoenix mine around which the town developed (circa 1900) was the biggest gold mine in the country. In the local mining museum on its premises stands a relic of these boom days called the Paper House; a wood and reinforced cardboard structure in striking green and white. This two-bedroom dwelling on stilts (presumably to combat the heat and protect from termites) was home to the first mine manager, and was once slept in by Cecil John Rhodes, the colonial empire builder who was closely connected with the early development of Rhodesia (Zimbabwe's former name). Kwekwe was originally a gold mining camp and is today characterised by the large mines in its vicinity producing gold, and the chrome ore and iron ore used in steelmaking.
Four gold deposits within the Kwekwe district have been studied. The Primrose and Globe and Phoenix gold deposits display typical features of Archean orogenic lode gold systems such as fluid inclusions with low salinity, mixed aqueous-carbonic fluids, formation temperatures between 300 and 400 °C, and a common stable isotope composition of fluid and mineral precipitates. Deposits of this type formed in the brittle-ductile crustal transition zone at 1.5 to 3.0 kbars. In contrast, gold mineralisation at Jojo and especially the Indarama gold deposits probably formed at lower temperatures (<<300 °C) and from dominantly aqueous, early moderate- to late high-salinity fluids.[5]
Zimbabwe Iron and Steel Company or ZISCO and Lancashire Steel are the major player in the city. ZISCO, with its satellite town of Redcliff, is the centre of Zimbabwe's steel industry. Lancashire Steel (Pvt. Ltd.) is involved in the manufacture of steel rods and wire.[6]
Dairy Industry[edit]
Dendairy is the second largests dairy producer in Zimbabwe which is now a major player in the manufacturing business in Kwekwe. Dendairy is the only dairy company in Zimbabwe that is able to produce UHT milk that has a shelf life of up to 1 year. Dendairy produces UHT milk, Maas(fermented) milk, youghurt, ice cream and fruit juices. Denadairy have the only Tetra Pak Plant in Zimbabwe which packs boxed UHT long life milk that has a shelf life of 1 year.
Sable Chemicals Pvt. Ltd. in located just outside city. It is the only producer of fertiliser in the whole country.[7] Sable Chemicals produce hydrogen for their ammonia required in the manufacture of fertiliser using the world's largest electrolysis plant. This requires half the electricity available from the Kariba hydroelectric power station.
Commercial and economic sector[edit]
The main retailers and banks in the country have branches in Kwekwe. OK and TM Supermarkets have outlets along the main street in the town. Kingdom Bank, Trust Bank, Barclays Bank, Standard Chartered Bank, CBZ Bank, Stanbic Bank, Allied Bank'and Ecobank all maintain branches in city.
Despite massive government intrusion, some small tourist operators maintain hunting and photographic safari licences on farms and concessions near town, where an abundance of wildlife can be seen, including Rhino, Elephant, Leopard, Lion and most big antelope (Kudu, Eland, Sable, Tsessebe etc.). The Kwekwe Sports Club hosts games by Zimbabwe's Midlands provincial cricket side, and hosted a One Day International against Kenya in 2002, along with a number of matches between Zimbabwe A and touring teams.
Two main hotels, the Golden Mile and the Shamwari Hotel cater for business travellers, and a recent abundance of chalet accommodation at breezy lodges such as Touchwood have emerged to cope with the overflow.
The National Mining Museum, dedicated to the vibrant mining industry in the country, is one of the main tourist attractions in the city.
Public services[edit]
- Kwekwe General Hospital is the main medical facility in the town. Although it belongs to the government, the City Council oversees it. It is a major centre for TB treatment in the district.[8] The hospital is found in Newtown, five kilometres east of the city centre, close to the Kwekwe Railway Station.
- Kwekwe City Council
- Zimpost, the national postal carrier's offices are located along main (called RGM) Way opposite city hall. POSB, the government bank is found on the edge of the city, behind the prominent mosque that is found at the north entrance of the town.
- The city is also served by Kwekwe Airport (IATA: n/a, ICAO: FVKK).
The member of parliament (MP) for Kwekwe Central constituency was Emmerson Mnangagwa until his defeat in the elections of 2000. Since then, Blessing Chebundo of the opposition Movement for Democratic Change (MDC) has represented the district in the Parliament of Zimbabwe.
As with other Zimbabwean towns run by opposition parties, Kwekwe has seen a number of politically motivated incidents in which people have been killed and arrested.

Hot off a mural tour that took him to Philadelphia, Chicago and New York, Shepard Fairey recently traveled to Berlin for to create a new street piece for Urban Nation's "One Wall" project. The arts platform is behind the interdisciplinary Project M (see our coverage here and here) and recently invited Fairey, Dutch collage artist Handiedan and Irish muralists Icy & Sot to create large-scale wall works. In his typical propaganda fashion, Fairey's mural champions creative freedom with the slogan "Make Art Not War." Read our recent interview with Fairey here and take a look at some photos of the piece by Henrik Haven below.

In his upcoming solo exhibition at Backwoods Gallery in Melbourne, Australia, James Reka examines the transition in a city from winter to spring. Perhaps no other city experiences such a drastic change during this time, than does Berlin, which come April is flooded with people riding bikes, picnicking in parks and soaking up the sunshine. Earlier this year, Reka came to Berlin as the inaugural artist-in-residence at the Urban Nation Workspace in the former West Berlin neighborhood of Schöneberg. His abstract paintings of women pulse with a dynamic spirit that captures not only the city's newfound spring life, but also Berlin's struggles with gentrification. Working in Schöneberg, an area noted for both its upscale residences and regular prostitutes, Reka is no stranger to this paradox of imported poshness and crude authenticity.
Founded by Yasha Young of arts platform Urban Nation Berlin, Project M/ goes beyond the idea of a traditional gallery, utilizing the exterior walls, street-facing windows and building interior of the Berlin art space for murals, installations and studio artwork. For its latest incarnation, M/4, Urban Nation Berlin invited Andrew Hosner of LA gallery Thinkspace to curate the huge group show "LAX/TXL" featuring an extensive roster of big names and noteworthy up-and-comers in New Contemporary art, street art and beyond: Yoskay Yamamoto, Brett Amory, Amy Sol, Andrew Hem, Nosego and dozens more.

WASHINGTON — Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan urged Congress on Wednesday to take a go-slow approach in setting up the private Social Security accounts favored by President Bush. The president said he wasn't ruling out taxing high-income workers more to help the retirement program.
Bush, who has been stumping across the country for the personal accounts, kept up that effort in New Hampshire. But his comments about levying Social Security taxes on more of big wage-earners' income got the attention.
He was asked in an interview whether he would oppose raising the current $90,000 cap on income subject to the Social Security payroll tax. Bush said he remained opposed to boosting the tax rate but left the door open to a possible increase in the amount covered.
"The only thing I'm not opened-minded about is raising the payroll tax rate. And all other issues are on the table," Bush said in interview published in the New Haven (Conn.) Register.
In Washington, Greenspan lent a respected economic voice to the political debate, saying Congress would be wise to take a cautious approach to setting up personal accounts. He said increased government borrowing would be needed to cover Social Security obligations to current retirees, because a portion of the payroll tax would be diverted to the private accounts.
"If you're going to move to private accounts, which I approve of, I think you have to do it in a cautious, gradual way," Greenspan, 78, told the Senate Banking Committee, where he was delivering the Fed's semi-annual monetary report to Congress.
Bush is proposing allowing workers born after 1949 to convert up to 4 percentage points of their Social Security taxes to personal stock and bond investments. The administration has estimated that the transition costs for the next 10 years would be $754 billion.
But critics of the plan have said that vastly understates the true costs, which some estimate in the trillions of dollars.
Greenspan said the problem was determining whether the government's increased borrowing needs would push up interest rates, and for that reason, he said any changes should proceed "slowly and test the waters."
The two sides in the Social Security debate saw different aspects of Greenspan's testimony before the Senate Banking Committee as supporting their approach.
Republicans noted that Greenspan said he had long been in favor of setting up private accounts as a way to address Social Security's long-run financing problems. But Democrats said his insistence on a go-slow approach represented a lukewarm endorsement at best for Bush's overhaul effort.
"There were lots of caveats," said Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y. "This was not like the ringing endorsement of the tax cuts in 2001."
Because of the respect Greenspan commands on Wall Street, his endorsement of an economic proposal is sought by members of both parties.
Bush cleared a major hurdle in his drive to enact tax cuts in 2001 when Greenspan endorsed the idea of cutting taxes, arguing at the time that the government's projected budget surpluses were so large that tax cuts were a good idea. Those surpluses never materialized.
In his appearance Wednesday, Greenspan did endorse making a major switch in how benefits are calculated for workers when they reach retirement age.
Under one of the proposals put forward by Bush's Social Security advisory panel, the level of benefits would be tied to increases in inflation, rather than increases in wages. Currently, retiring workers get about 40 percent of their wages replaced by Social Security. However, switching to an inflation index could cut that amount roughly in half.
Greenspan, who in the past has said benefit cuts will have to be part of the solution to Social Security's problems, called the switch in indexing "one of the most effective ways to come to grips with closing the ... gap between expected revenues and expected benefits."
All last year, Greenspan used various appearances before Congress to push for action to deal with the impending retirement of 78 million baby boomers, saying the government had promised more than it could deliver not only in Social Security but also in Medicare, where the funding shortfall is even more severe.
In 1983, Greenspan chaired a Social Security commission that came up with a compromise plan that raised payroll taxes and trimmed benefits to deal with a funding shortfall the system faced at that time.
He said Wednesday that his commission had been successful because he and other panel members had worked closely with then-President Reagan and Democrats in Congress to make sure that whatever was adopted would be acceptable to both parties.

Rangers give struggling Moreland, Choo break
With an off day on Monday, Ron Washington felt it was an opportune time to get Shin-Soo Choo and Mitch Moreland extended rest.
That's why those were the two regulars given off days on Sunday. Both are dealing with sore left ankles and Moreland also has a little bit of back stiffness.
Both have struggled at the plate of late, too. Choo is batting .200 over his past nine games, and Moreland has a .192 average over his past six games.
"They needed it," Washington said.
Choo has particularly struggled the past three weeks. He is batting .205 over his past 23 games to drop from a season-high .370 average to his current .289.
Washington believes that Choo's ankle could be part of the reason for that. Choo initially injured it April 21 when he hit first base awkwardly.
"You need your lower half to hit and that's his push leg, so that could be affecting him," Washington said. "He's not turning on a lot of balls inside that he swings at. He's topping them. It could have an effect, but this is a good time to get him two days in a row."
Choo entered as a pinch-hitter for Yu Darvish in the eighth inning and drew a walk.
Michael Choice had been in the lineup to replace Choo in left field and the leadoff spot, but was scratched with a left shin contusion. Daniel Robertson ended up handling those duties.
Fresh face at first
Washington didn't have many options to play first base for Morleand on Sunday and opted to go with utility infielder Donnie Murphy.
Murphy found out during breakfast and went through a brief pregame workout at first with Washington and bench coach Tim Bogar. He had never played the position before.
"This is something new, but Wash just told me to catch the ball," said Murphy, who borrowed Chris Gimenez's first base glove. "I think it's as simple as that."
Washington had no concerns about Murphy playing first.
"I think everybody can play first base," said Washington, who laughed at his contradictory comment from what was portrayed by his character in Moneyball.
"Murphy is a good enough athlete to hold it down for us for one day."
Scheppers update
Right-hander Tanner Scheppers, who is on the disabled list with right elbow inflammation, allowed one run on a solo homer over 12/3 innings during a rehab appearance Saturday at Triple A Round Rock.
Scheppers allowed two homers in his previous outing on Thursday. Washington said the team has not discussed whether Scheppers is ready to return Tuesday when the team opens a nine-game homestand.
"I'm sure we'll have something decided by Tuesday on what we want to do," Washington said.
Capitol visit
Most of the Rangers enjoyed a private tour of the U.S. Capitol following Saturday's game, courtesy of Ryan Thompson, chief of staff to Texas Congressman Joe Barton.
Elvis Andrus raved about the trip with his personal favorites seeing the Speaker's Room and the Old Supreme Court Chamber.
"It was really great, an amazing day," Andrus said. "Something you'll never forget for sure."
Andrus also got to see other parts of the city, including the Lincoln Memorial and the White House.
He joked that he should have kept his "Abe Lincoln beard" a little bit longer, which would have made for a better photo opportunity.

Wilson waiting for The Voice call
3:09pm Friday 25th April 2014 in National News © Press Association 2014
Kaiser Chiefs star Ricky Wilson said BBC bosses have not talked to him about his future on The Voice.
The singer told Graham Norton he was "loving" the band's return to making records three years after their last album.
He said: " I'm enjoying it a lot more this time. I really didn't appreciate it the first time round - it went by so fast so I'm stopping more to savour the moment."
Asked if he would return as a coach to The Voice, he said: " I haven't been asked yet and I'm not sure who has been asked. I was always a wild card. I was the least famous person at the party."
His fellow coach, Kylie Minogue, has already announced she has quit the singing show to concentrate on her own music career.
The pair joined this year, appearing alongside Sir Tom Jones and will.i.am who have been coaches since it began in 2012.
The BBC is committed to a further two series of The Voice.

2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class
Fast 4 Door Sedan - Lots Of Money And No Awd — Test drove this car last year. Never bought it as it was simply too much money for a sedan. The performance was, however, impressive. Quick acceleartion, tight steering, very elegant interior. The real draw-back was that it did not have all wheel drive and costs a fortune. For less money and with all wheel drive (if you live where it snows), you can get an Audi Rs6 or a carrera 4s - much more fun to drive and both have all wheel drive.

2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E500
ProsThe v-8 gets as much as 29 miles per gallon on the highway! Super comfortable , very fast, elegant. ConsExpensive to maintain.
Wife Pleaser! — Excellent vehicle for long trips. Fast, reliable car with great gas milage. But once a year it needs maintenance that usually costs $1000 per visit to the dealer if nothing is wrong. Mercedes headquarters will not back an owner if a dispute arises involving a warrantee claim. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E500
ProsTotally trouble free. This car has been as reliable as my Honda (no small feat!). 36MPG on the highway at 70 mph. Quiet, passengers have no idea it is a diesel. Performance is better than the gasoline version of the same car. ConsJust I can say nothing bad about it.
Best Car In World — Initially , i use to be a big fan of Audi as i owned one , heavy weight and great dynamics i thought could not get better than Audi. But once i sat in E500 i just loved interior and bought it without second thought. It never turned down my expectations. Once i was driving in New England Storm i took exit for gas and got stuck in 3 foot snow. But i now my merc can handle it like nothing , i switched to Sport mode and press the pedal it jumped of the heavy snow like a tiger everybody around just baffled as they shoveling hard to get their car out of snow. I can drive 50 miles an hour on ramps like nothing Primary Use: Family transportation |
2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E320 Wagon
ProsSpacious, reliable and stylish family car ConsParts costs are a little higher than a Toyota
2005 Mercedes-benz E-class E320 Wagon — I bought this used car as a cheap and cheerful load-lugger for shopping, baby commuting etc. It has far exceeded my expectations, with a very high level of factory options. The engine bay is as new, and just about everything on the car worked perfectly despite having lead a fairly tough life before my ownership. I have had to change engine and transmission mounts and a few bushes under the car, but otherwise it has been faultless for such a high mileage car. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E55 AMG
ProsFast ConsCostly
2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E500
ProsMercedes Benz... nees i say more? ConsGas mileage
Fantastic Car — 5 sec from 0-go, excelent brakes... not so good on corners... but ESP makes its work. Excelent build quality, never had any repairs, and it does not have any squeaks or rattles. Supreme styling in and out The gas mileage is a bit high... and services also Extremely fun to drive... Primary Use: Family transportation |
2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E500
ProsFast luxury sport ConsI am going to have to put new motor mounts on the vehicle again second time
Luxury Sport — I love my E500 great power/speed. You have the luxury when needed. Great overall car. Just have to do your routine maintenance of normal wear and tear parts. If not it will break down. Certain parts are designed to eventually wear out because of the high speeds. Primary Use: Commuting to work |
2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E55 AMG
ProsGreat family car or just to drive for fun !! ConsThese are cars that need to be driven , don't buy one if your not willing to maintain it.
Great Looks,ridiculous Power. — I like the sound of this car, the looks are classic and this particular year . It was the most powerful car I've ever driven. You shouldn't ever need all the power it can deliver but it's there if you ever do . I can't really think of anything I dislike except it takes premium gas but if it didn't I would be surprised. Primary Use: Family transportation |
2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E500 4MATIC
ProsBest car in world like I say Mercedes E Class better than S Class. ConsNothing to say bad about it. Just need change oil on time and use only Mobile 1
Best Car Ever I Own It. — This car handles great and has been very reliable compare to what others have written about it. It has very good acceleration, gas mileage is decent and the interior/exterior design is fantastic. I love it. Again Best Car so far for 2014 Primary Use: Family transportation |
2005 Mercedes-Benz E-Class E500
ProsHas a gr8 ride and a gr8 car for the family ConsLight color interior not for kids
Great German Engineering — The car as a lot of torque when you need it. Handles like no other sedan and ride is by far the best out there. You can set it for a sport ride which is very tight or a soft ride that lets car float going down the road. Very roomy inside for 4 adults plenty of leg and headroom. Trunk is 1 of the biggest in this class of car. Primary Use: Family transportation |

In 1984, a large cancer was discovered in Price's spinal cord. Here, he recounts his battle to withstand and recover from this devastating affliction. He charts the first puzzling symptoms, three surgeries, the radiation that paralyzes his lower body, the occasionally comic trials of rehab, the steady rise of pain and reliance on drugs, and his discovery of biofeedback and hypnosis. Beyond the particulars, Price illuminates larger concerns, such as the gratitude he feels toward family and friends and (some) doctors, the abundant return of his powers as a writer, and the "now appalling, now astonishing grace of God." More than the portrait of one person in crisis, A Whole New Life offers honest insight, realistic encouragement, and authentic inspiration -- and stands as one of Price's crowning achievements. ...show less

Driskel Injures Shoulder: Missed Practice Time Early This Week
Published August 15th, 2012
Loading Video...
Gainesville- Florida Gators quarterback Jeff Driskel injured his non-throwing shoulder on Sunday, and although he played through the pain on Sunday, his mother (according to USA Today) says he woke up sore on Monday and was unable to practice.
Driskel once again missed practice reps on Tuesday, but a statement released by the University of Florida says Driskel will "take reps" on Wednesday.
The Gators sophomore has been in a battle with sophomore Jacoby Brissett for the starting job this fall, which would be the first year starting for either player.

Sylvester McCoy returns as the Seventh Doctor in the epic box set Doctor Who - UNIT: Dominion. The four-hour full-cast audiobook, with accompanying one-hour 'Making of' documentary, is a battle for the future of the universe...
Sylvester, who played the Doctor on TV between 1987-89, and returned for the TV Movie in 1996, is reunited with old companions Raine Creevy (Beth Chalmers) and Elizabeth Klein (Tracey Childs), and teams up with a future incarnation of himself, played by Alex Macqueen (The Inbetweeners, The Thick of It).
A spectacular five-disc box set, Doctor Who - UNIT: Dominion will be released later in October, and to count down to the release day we'll be unveiling a series of digital postcards of characters and monsters from the story.
We begin with the Seventh Doctor himself... Who is set to face one of the biggest challenges of his many lives!
Doctor Who - UNIT: Dominion can be pre-ordered at a special discount rate of just £30. It can also be pre-ordered in a bundle alongside Doctor Who: Dark Eyes, Doctor Who: Love and War, Doctor Who: Voyage to Venus and Doctor Who: Voyage to the New World. The bundle costs £65 on CD (£55 download) for 15 CDs - but hurry, the offer closes at the end of October!
Join actor, comedian and Toby Hadoke on the next part of his mission to interview someone involved with every single one of the stories from Doctor Who's first 50 years on television!

A $30 million data center at the University of Iowa Oakdale campus has received Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Platinum certification, the highest energy-efficient standard.
The 42,000-square-foot Information Technology Facility will house the university's and its hospitals and clinics computer and network equipment. Completed in 2011, it is the first building on the UI campus to receive the LEED� designation.
The university partnered with Alliant Energy to design the building, which uses about 37 percent less energy than a building without any of the energy-efficient features.
"Data centers have tons of equipment running. You need a lot of air conditioning to keep them cool. There's a lost of energy being used,"�said Justin Foss, a spokesman for Alliant Energy.�"(The upgrades) shave off about 1.5 million kilowatt-hours of usage annually."
The average home uses about 11,000 kilowatt-hours a year.
UI also received a $271,854 rebate check for participating in the utility's Commercial New Construction program, which works with new commercial buildings and remodeling projects to make them more energy efficient.

exterior surface markings of Kirk's Enterprise
View Single Post

Re: exterior surface markings of Kirk's Enterprise
That would mean that
is only capable of studying one, or at most two (assuming another pod in the symmetrical location on the other side of the ship), ion storms ever without a base layover.
Judging by the shape the ship was in after its one known encounter, I think this is not a bad assumption...
The phenomenon was also encountered only once by our heroes, or by any other set of onscreen Trek heroes for that matter (indeed, most sets never met this specific phenomenon, only comparable ones by different names). Everything fits with it being rare indeed - thus warranting these near-suicidal sorties into the belly of the beast by a random starship in the name of science, even though starships might have much better things to do, and even though the Federation might be capable of building special ships or craft better equipped to deal with the storm studies. It just wouldn't do to send dedicated ships on a hunt: every vessel has to stand ready in case she is the one to get lucky and meet a storm.
Really, the only in-story element that calls for the storms
to be super-rare is the fact that Finney was counting on encountering one. But he had obviously spent years if not decades preparing for his revenge, and most of it might have been spent waiting for the perfect storm.
It seems most likely to me that the ion pod(s) are there to study ion storms and other ion-related phenomena but they aren't disposable.
This goes against a command chair button being dedicated to the very act of disposing, though.
Kirk should really have control over the deploying and retracting of this supposed recoverable pod, too, if he has control over its emergency scuttling...
Why can't this whole operation be automated, sparing the risk and exposure of a crewman?
Good question, and the idea of uncrewed deployment answers it. And since an ion storm study is a highly time-critical operation, such uncrewed deployment would rightfully call for priming of the system after probable years of dormancy, in a great hurry, and inside a storm.
This might explain how Finney got out in time without there being any record of it
I'm not sure this should be an issue for the Records Officer, though.
Also, the more elaborate we make the ion pod, the more "accountable" it becomes. Something forgotten in a lone corner of the ship for years at an end would call for assorted precautions if its very operation jeopardized lives. If it's just an automated piece of equipment to be jettisoned to do its job after an expert has checked that it still works and primed its experiments, then nobody is required to anxiously await for said expert to return, ready to offer assistance. After all, the expert has not really left the ship.

Sept. 18, 2012
RENO, Nev. - The University of Nevada swimming and diving team was picked to finish eighth in its inaugural season in the Mountain West on Tuesday by the conference's head coaches.
The Wolf Pack earned 17 points, finishing one spot ahead of Air Force (11) and one spot behind Fresno State (22).
San Diego State was selected as the favorite to win the Mountain West in 2012-13, one point ahead of defending champion Boise State. The Aztecs collected four first-place votes and 60 total points, while Boise State was selected to finish second with 59 points and claimed five first-place votes. One point also separates third and fourth place as UNLV collected 48 points for third place, just ahead of Wyoming in fourth with 47 points. Colorado State (34 points) and New Mexico (26 points) claimed fifth and sixth place, respectively, followed by Fresno State (seventh, 22 points), Nevada (eighth, 17 points) and Air Force (ninth, 11 points).
The Pack finished fifth at the WAC Championships in its final season in the conference in 2011-12 collecting multiple individual honors in the process. Grace Huang was named the diver of the year and her coach, Jian Li You, was named the diving coach of the year as well. Jojo Mi won the 500 and 1,650-yard freestyle for the second consecutive year and was within a second of taking the crown in the 200-yard freestyle.

The Use of Informal Networks in Italian Labor Markets: Efficiency or Favoritisms?
A number of papers considers the use of informal networks (the help of relatives, friends and acquaintances) to find an employment as an efficient mechanism to match workers to jobs. However, evidence in Italy shows that informal networks tend to be used more in less productive jobs and less developed regions. We aim to show that informal networks – rather than being an efficient channel of information transmission – may interfere with a genuine process of selection of workers, favoring socially connected people in place of more talented workers. Using the Bank of Italy Survey on Household Income and Wealth (SHIW) we estimate with a Probit model the determinants of the probability of using informal networks. We find that informal networks tend to be used by low educated individuals, in low productivity jobs, in high unemployment areas, where opportunistic behavior are widespread and in jobs paying a wage rent. We offer a stripped-down model of nepotism to explain theoretically these findings.

clopidogrel, High on-treatment platelet reactivity, platelet function testing, prospective registry
Reduced antiplatelet effect of clopidogrel assessed with multiple electrode aggregometry (MEA) and vasodilator stimulated phosphoprotein-phosphorylation (VASP-P) assay has been proven to predict major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) after coronary stenting. So far no consecutive registry has evaluated the usefulness of different adenosine diphosphate-based platelet function tests to predict outcome in unselected patients. Hence, our objective was to determine the feasibility of MEA and VASP-P for clinical routine and whether low-response to clopidogrel as determined by MEA and/or the VASP-P assays predicts MACE in a "real-life" population undergoing coronary stenting. Three-hundred consecutive patients were included in this prospective registry. Blood was sampled 6–24 hours after stenting to measure MEA and VASP-P. The use of glycoprotein-IIb/IIIa-blockers limited MEA to 196 measurements. Concerning the VASP-P assay, 300 measurements were achieved. Receiver Operating Characteristics (ROC)-curves of sensitivity and specificity estimates for MACE were plotted for VASP-P assay. The area under the ROC-curve was 0.683 (p=0.014) for the platelet reactivity index (PRI) calculated from median fluorescence intensities (FI) with an optimal cut-off at 60.2% PRI. Patients above 60.2% had a significantly increased risk for MACE at six months follow-up (p=0.007). Estimating the cut-offs for the PRI from mean FI (52%) or from geometric mean FI (56.6%) led to clinically relevant differences. VASP-P assay is feasible for clinical routine to measure clopidogrel effects and to predict post-procedural MACE in unselected patients. With regard to differing cut-offs, exact standardisation of the VASP-P assay is mandatory. The use of GP-IIb/IIIa-blockers prevents MEA testing and limits its usability in unselected patients.

Browser specification in this case should be in the lines of "If the request was intitiated by reference from another object with a known URI then the Referer header SHOULD be sent indicating the URI of the referencing resource."

I don't know about that "A" at the end. You can't really put a crossbar on it, because it may look like an "H". I don't have my photoshop on me right now, but maybe play with a lowercase "a" for that position, which gives you more to chop... just a complete thought. Might like worse with a lowercase though haha

For some time, Israel had been third in line, after Canada, but with
68 listings, that country has now slipped to third place.
This comparison only counts companies registered in Israel as
Israeli, and therefore if others, Israel-based but registered
elsewhere such as Comverse Technologies (NASDAQ:CMVT) or Amdocs
(NYSE:DOX), were taken into account, the numbers would be even more
Two more Israeli companies Passave and Predix Pharmaceuticals. plan
to list on Nasdaq.
Israel has second most companies registered for trading on NASDAQ
When Ituran (Nasdaq, TASE: ITRN) joined the Nasdaq it, became the
71st Israeli company on the Index. Israel is now the second most
represented country on Nasdaq after the U.S.
