The bus situation was one of the sore spots of Montgomery. If a visitor had come to Montgomery before the bus boycott, he would have heard bus operators referring to Negro passengers as "niggers", "black apes," and "black cows". He would have frequently noticed Negro passengers getting on at the front door and paying their fares and then being forced to get off and go to the back doors to board the bus, and often he would have noticed that before the Negro passenger could get to the back door, the bus rode off with his fare in the box. But even more, that visitor would have noticed Negro passengers standing over empty seats. No matter if a white person nevere got on the bus and the bus was filled up with Negro passengers, these Negro passengers were prohibited from sitting in the first four seats because they were only for white passengers. It even went beyond this. If the reserved section for whites was filled up with white persons, and additional white persons boarded the bus, then Negro passengers sitting in the unreserved section were often asked to stand up and give their seats to white persons. If they refused to do this, they were arrested.
Rosa Parks' arrest for refusing to give up her seat to a white man prompted the Montgomery Bus boycott.
Rosa Parks
was arrested on a Thursday and by Monday the boycott was launched.
My wife and I awoke earlier than usual on Monday morning. We were up and fully dressed by five-thirty. The day for the protest had arrived, and we were determined to see the first act of this unfolding drama.
Fortunately, a bus stop was just five feet from our house. We could observe the opening stages from our front window. And so we waited through an interminable half hour. I was in the kitchen drinking my coffee when I heard Coretta cry "Martin, Martin, come quickly!" I put down my cup and ran toward the living room. As I approached the front window Coretta pointed joyfully to a slowly moving bus: "Darling, it's empty!" I could hardly believe what I saw. I knew that the South Jackson line, which ran past our house, carried more Negro passengers than any other line in Montgomery, and that this first bus was usually filled with domestic workers going to their jobs. Would all of the other buses follow the pattern that had been set by the first? Eagerly we waited for the next bus. In fifteen minutes it rolled down the street, and, like the first, it was empty. A third bus appeared, and it too was empty of all but two white passengers.
I jumped in my car and for almost an hour I cruised down every major street and examined every passing bus. At the peak of the morning traffic, I saw no more than eight Negro passengers riding the buses. Instead of the 60 percent cooperation we had hoped for, it was becoming apparent that we had reached almost 100 percent. A miracle was now fully awake.
All day long it continued. At the afternoon peak the buses were still as empty of Negro passengers as they had been in the morning. Students of Alabama State College were cheerfully walking or thumbing rides. Job holders had either found other means of transportation or made their way on foot. Men were seen riding mules to work, and more than one horse-drawn buggy drove the streets of Montgomery that day.
During the rush hours the sidewalks were crowded with laborers and domestic workers trudging patiently to their jobs and home again, sometimes as much as twelve miles. They knew why the walked, and the knowledge was evident in the way they carried themselves. And as I watched them I knew that there is nothing more majestic than the determined courage of individuals willing to suffer and sacrifice for their freedom and dignity.
Later that afternoon a meeting with local African American leaders such as Ralph Abernathy and E.D. Nixon was held in order to decide to continue the busy boycott. In this same meeting, the Montgomery Improvement Association was formed and King was elected president. That evening King made his first speech to rally the African American community together to continue support of the boycott.
We are here this evening for serious business. We are here in a general sense because first and foremost we are American citizens and we are determined to apply our citizenship to the fullness of its meaning. We are here also because of our love for democracy, because of our deep-seated belief that democracy transformed from thin paper to thick action is the greatest form of government on earth....
You know, my friends, there comes a time when people get tired of being trampled over by the iron feet of oppression. There comes a time, my friends, when people get tired of being plunged across the abyss of humiliation, where they experience the bleakness of nagging despair. There comes a time when people get tired of being pushed out of the glittering sunlight of life's July, and left standing amid the piercing chill of an alpine November.
And we are not wrong. We are not wrong in what we are doing. If we are wrong, the Supreme Court of this nation is wrong. If we are wrong, the Constitution of the United States is wrong. If we are wrong, God Almighty is wrong. If we are wrong, Jesus of Nazareth was merely a utopian dreamer that never came down to earth. And we are determined here in Montgomery to work and fight until justice runs down like water and righteousness like a mighty stream.
I want to say that in all of our actions we must stick together. Unity is the great need of the hour, and if we are united we can get many of the things that we not only desire but which we justly deserve. And don't let anybody frighten you. We are not afraid of what we are doing, because we are doing it within the law. There is never a time in our American democracy that we must ever think we're wrong when we protest. We reserve that right.
We, the disinherited of this land, we who have been oppressed so long, are tired of going through the long night of captivity. And now we are reaching out for the daybreak of freedom and justice and equality. May I say to you, my friends, as I come to a close . . . that we must keep . . . God in the forefront. Let us be Christian in all of our actions. But I want to tell you this evening that it is not enough for us to talk about love. Love is one of the pivotal points of the Christian faith. There is another side called justice.
Standing beside love is always justice and we are only using the tools of justice. Not only are we using the tools of persuasion but we've come to see that we've got to use the tools of coercion. Not only is this thing a process of education but it is also a process of legislation.
As we stand and sit here this evening and as we prepare ourselves for what lies ahead, let us go out with a grim and bold determination that we are going to stick together. We are going to work together. Right here in Montgomery, when the history books are written in the future, somebody will have to say, "There lived a race of people, a black people, fleecy locks and black complexion,' a people who had the moral courage to stand up for their rights. And thereby they injected a new meaning into the veins of history and of civilization.

Another Day, Another Letter by American Jewish Leftists Pressuring Netanyahu
Posted By Daniel Greenfield On April 5, 2013 @ 10:06 am In The Point | 11 Comments
The Israel Policy Forum has a letterhead and a whole bunch of money and it is once again putting them to good use with a letter demanding that Israel [2]make "painful territorial sacrifices for the sake of peace".
I don't know where the 100 signers have been, but Israel has been making painful territorial sacrifices for the sake of peace for a while now and the peace hasn't shown up.
And who exactly is Israel supposed to make peace with? Hamas or the long unelected Fatah government which would lose any election to Hamas and insists that its policies are the same as those of Hamas?
The IPF letter is short on actual policies and long on praise for Obama. It's ambiguous enough to maximize the list of signers, but the list mainly consists of the same lefty J Street types like Rick Jacobs and bland establishment figures like Charles Bronfman.
If you stopped the average American Jew on the street, the odds are bad that he would be able to recognize even one in ten of the names on the list.
IPF and the letter's proponents are touting Dov Zakheim's presence on the list, but while Zakheim was a Mitt Romney adviser, his views on Israel these days are in line with the left. His last Foreign Policy blog post gushed all over Obama's visit to Israel and included this;
"Now comes the hard part. Obama's soaring speeches tend to fall flatly to earth when he attempts to implement them. He needs to exploit Bibi Netanyahu's political vulnerability to a cabinet that was not of his choosing and pressure the Israeli prime minister to negotiate with the Palestinians in good faith."
If IPF's big pro-Israel "get" is Zakheim, then its credentials really need work. The Israel Policy Forum was always anti-Israel. It still is anti-Israel. It may be trying to buy legitimacy with hedge fund money, but it's still the same rotten creature underneath.

Knicks' Marbury plans to return to team after new year

New York Knicks guard Stephon Marbury informed the team on Thursday that he plans on returning to the team after the new year, according to Knicks' vice president of communications Jonathan Supranowitz.
Supranowitz spoke with Marbury after Knicks coach Isiah Thomas said at practice earlier on Thursday that he did not know if Marbury would return to the team.

Does the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) require sanction to prosecute former chief minister Ashok Chavan in the Adarsh housing society scam, asked the Bombay high court on Wednesday.
The query was raised by Justice Sadhana Jadhav while hearing a revision petition filed by CBI seeking permission to delete Chavan's name from the FIR in the case after Maharashtra governor K Sankaranarayanan refused to grant sanction to prosecute him.
The CBI had filed the petition in HC last month after the special CBI court refused to delete Chavan's name from the FIR filed in January 2011.
Chavan and 12 others were booked under section 120 (b) of the Indian Penal Code for criminal conspiracy and under various charges of corruption under the Prevention of Corruption (PC) Act.
"Do you (CBI) need sanction to prosecute under the general law of IPC," asked Justice Jadhav.
CBI lawyer Hiten Venegaonkar informed the court that sanction to prosecute under IPC was required as Chavan was a sitting MLA and former chief minister and also the revenue minister at the time when the alleged offence was committed.
"Without sanction under section 120 (b) of IPC, the agency cannot proceed to prosecute him under section 13 (1) (d) of the PC Act independently," he said.
HC has issued notices to the Maharashtra government and Chavan and kept the petition for hearing on June 10.
As Chavan was a chief minister, law required the state to give a prior sanction to prosecute him in a criminal case. Chavan had stepped down as CM after his name was linked to the Adarsh controversy towards the end of 2010.
CBI had accused Chavan of approving additional FSI (floor space index) to Adarsh society in exchange of two flats for his relatives. Chavan was also charged with illegally approving as revenue minister allotment of 40% of the flats to civilians when the society was allegedly meant for Kargil war widows and defence personnel.
Chavan had moved the high court against CBI's authority to probe the case.
CBI had filed a charge sheet in the case against 13 people, including 55-year-old Chavan, who is contesting upcoming Lok Sabha elections from Nanded, pending sanction from the governor. The trial court is yet to take cognisance of it.

Join 18 Close Up
Most of us won't have the opportunity to get close to a sexy and naked 18 or 19-year-old chick any time in the near future and as we get older our chances probably become less and less. While that might be the case, 18 Close Up is doing their part to get you as close as they can.
Think of 18CloseUp as a very intimate masturbation site. The scenes are truly focused on the chicks and their bodies and, of course, their sweet and soft naughty bits. The camera doesn't stay back, but instead gets right up close. I could often see the little wrinkles around a model's asshole or the pores in her skin on and around her pink pussy.
There are around 550 videos and the quality is quite high. Although it looks like some are continuations of others, most of the vids added prior to 2013 are actually standalone vids. The newer movies are available in Full HD MP4s. What's nice is that once you click into a part, all of the others are right alongside it, so you don't have to hunt them down afterward.You're also able to peruse a model index.
The site looks really sleek. Movie updates are once a week, but since they are added in parts, it means that you're stucking waiting for the full-length file, which can take anywhere from one month to several, so it's definitely not ideal. There's also a daily download limit of 10GB to contend with.
The addition of galleries started in April 2013. So far, there are 13 photo sets. They all come filled with high-res images and can be saved in Zip folders. There's a set of video captures to go along with almost every movie, too. As far as extras go, you can check out additional flicks featuring other beauties. There's also a little bit of bonus content sampled from another website.
The HD movies look amazing, as do the nubile babes and their sweet, sweet pussies, so joining 18 Close Up is worthwhile for anyone who wants to get as up close and personal as possible with stunning girls without being in the same room. I'm not so thilled with the way they update, but there's already quite a lot of content to get you going.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.
* Watch out for ratings of zero and 100. In our opinion, there is no such thing as a site that is absolutely perfect or completely worthless.

The site has download limits of 5GB in 3 hours which they describe as "close to no limit downloads" but it's not great for HD content, and a limit of 10 GB per day. The download that takes you over 5GB will be blocked mid download. Most of the videos seem to be less than 10 minutes, which I think is too short. The quality and content is good although I expected it to be more focused on the pussy than it is (a lot of it is not much different from other teasing / masturbation / lesbian content to be found elsewhere) , I think ALS Scan which also has close ups, or In The Crack are good sites and they let you download.
Score: 88% Date: 03/31/2014
I've been a member before and joined again recently. There's been a lot of improvements in the site, among them 20 Megapix photos, HD streaming and new formats. The design of the member section is much better (it was awful), and there is a search function for the 600 HD videos (it's sometimes difficult to navigae the site though). I agree with the comment below about the videos that are extremely heavy (the XTR videos are really too massive, 1120 MB for a 14 minutes sequence is a bit too much, but I admit the quality is better than on other sites, not sure it's Worth the download).
Score: 40% Date: 08/12/2012
I became a member of this site because i was hoping to get a nice close up view of beautiful 18-year girls skin. But it was a dissapointment. They focus so much on close ups of pussy and ass that it could have been a woman of any age. They promiss body scan - well you have to search long before you get close ups of other bodyparts... and if you finally found it, the girl moves so quick the image get blurred. The files are about 300 - 500 Gb for 5-10 minutes of movie. But they are extremely heavy on my laptop (which is pretty new and is not the cheapest). It takes a long time before it starts to play, after a few minutes i get messages the processor is overheating... and if this would be the result of a extremely sharp picture i would not care. But this is not the case! I have downloaded sharper movies.
So all taken together I would not advice to spend your money on this site. I would advice you to bring your money to the site Inthecrack, although they also focus too much on pussy (but at least the name of this site tells you what to expect).

And most of those shows are considered to be inferior in quality compared to the stuff on cable, which does have ongoing stories.
I don't think anyone will disagree that
Star Trek
will be insanely expensive to produce weekly.
In order for a show that is expensive to survive, it has to be put out in a manner the maximum number of people can see it. To drive revenue. Plus, cable TV providers continue to bleed subscribers here in the U.S.
Now are you going to take and put your (depending on number of episodes) $60-110 million dollar investment on a business model that looks to be slowly dying or are you going to place it where the most people possible can see it, driving advertising revenue?
The problem, as I see it on the outside, is live-action
Star Trek
'done right' is too expensive for Netflix or Showtime to turn a profit off of (I don't believe it would drive subscriptions as those who really want to see it will either download it or wait for home video) and wouldn't draw enough viewers to justify a spot on a network line-up, especially at CBS.
I really don't see live-action
Star Trek
coming back anytime soon, especially with CBS making a rather large profit off their back catalog and and taking no risks with Paramount footing the bill for the motion picture franchise.

PDT Staff Writer
FRANKLIN FURNACE — Two months ago, Green Superintendent Sandra Mers predicted voters in the March election would support a 7-mill, $475,000 property tax levy for emergency operations. Unfortunately, that was not so.
Voters on Tuesday denied the Green School levy with a 684-660 vote. Absentee votes are not included, however, and will be counted when the election results are certified in 10 days.
Mers warned in the months leading to the election that without the levy support the district would have to cut further to the state minimum levels.
"We have a loss of revenue with the continued cuts, and to remain status quo if you look at our five-year forecast we just need operating revenue. It's not for a special program. No new hires, nothing like that. In fact, through attrition at the end of this year there will be 17.5 positions that have been eliminated through attrition since 2006," she said.
Following the final count Tuesday, Mers was disappointed.
"We were planning on this to pass, so we are going to have to reconvene and make those tough decisions," she said.
In November 2010, by a vote of 442-1,039, voters rejected a $1 million general operations levy for the Green School District. Mers remained focused on the positive Tuesday evening, pointing out how much better the district did this year; and she said they will be back on the ballot to try again later this year.
"I'm thrilled with the amount of support from staff and community, because researching past elections this was close. The amount of support we have gained has been tremendous. We have to look at the bright side," Mers said.
According to the district, if it had passed, a local property valued at $200,000 would have paid an extra $490 each year — or $1.34 a day. At the lower end, a property valued at $25,000 would have paid an extra $61.25 each year — or 17 cents a day.

Ultherapy for Not Looking 50 on my Next Birthday - Atlanta, GA
I am 49 years old turning 50 next October. I have twin 3 year old boys and for the last 4 years have started to really notice my aging in my face. I get Botox on my forehead routinely. I have not used any fillers because I don't want to look fake. I am not surgery averse but felt a face lift... READ MORE

Re: Sigil Employees are Fired
Wow...I didn't expect this...Nino (a loved member of the VG team spoke out today on the firings...(FOH...I am to lazy to give you the link)..I expected people to talk...but not quite as frankly as this...He infers that it was Brad that killed the game...Wich (even though I was a Vanboy or a Bradite) I can understand and possibly agree with...I've met Brad (as has Magus)...He came accross as very passionate about the game, as did his employees...He seemed to be the "messiah" of MMORPG's...His employees worshiped him as if he was one (wich, to be completely honest, won me over)...Things are coming to light that he wasn't even in the office after the SOE publishing agreement (RUMOR..but being somewhat solidified by the type of post that Nino did)...He might be a nice guy, but I guess he's not a business man....What do you guys think (Magus, I'm especially interested in your view)?
There is much I would love to unload about right now, but seeing as I am feeling pretty emotional while trying to respect the wishes of remaining Vanguard management, I will refrain.
I knew this was coming months ago, as did most others, so I made arrangements prior to the whole unfolding of events today. Sony was kind enough to invite me and a few others to form a small team and to start prototyping a 'new' project. While we've done some 'secret' preliminary work, we begin in earnest tomorrow after we officially sign on with SOE. Don't bother asking about details, because you won't get any.
I became increasingly disenfranchised with the situation since the forced premature launch, which then culminated several weeks back when I decided I could not, in good conscience, continue serving the Sigil management staff in my over-extended capacity and stepped down. I would have walked away completely if this recent opportunity had not presented itself when it did.
I did the best I could with the time and resources I had at my disposal, but in the end it simply wasn't enough to bring the game up to the standards we all had hoped for in the time we had remaining. I apologize for any disappointments players have experienced. During the final year, I was pulling 80-100 hour weeks, and I was not at all alone in the building. I wish things could have been different.
While I was fortunate to stay employed, there were near 50 people today who were not, and it was painful watching the procession of stunned coworkers packing their belongings into little cardboard boxes with blank looks on their faces. I've never had to endure something like this, and I hope to never have to do it again. I know it is easy to point fingers at 'why' things ended up this way, but the vast, vast majority of the folks losing their jobs today had very little control on how events unfolded and many were skilled and creative people who simply wanted to make a great game.
The Vanguard team, obviously now much smaller, will go back to improving and fixing the game tomorrow. Myself and four others will be moving to a new location and beginning anew. The others will begin the process of trying to find a new place to work.
I promised not to be publically scornful, but I will say this: I hope those truly responsible for the deep rooted failings of the company lay in bed tonight and relive the events that transpired today in their heads, over and over. For not ONE of you is without your job come tomorrow morning.
On Any Given Sunday!

Well, this one is weird.
It's been a long time since we've used the words "Lindsay" "party" and "trouble" all in the same sentence (oh wait, we reported on all those stupid Barron Hilton rumors, JUST KIDDING), but Lindsay Lohan is creating drama in her life again.
The 27-year-old actress is reportedly dating an 18-year-old NY model named Morgan O'Connor, which is just a mess to begin with.
So, the boy model was hanging out at the Dream Downtown hotel in NYC, as teenage models like to do, and Lindsay had a panic attack because she feared that he was hooking up with other girls, so she went apesh*t and stormed down to his hotel room where he was apparently throwing a party.
"She was ordering all the girls to leave, telling one that her Balmain jeans were fake. She said she wouldn't leave until they all left. These kids are 18," a source told Page Six.
All the teenage girls started panicking and called hotel security. "They honestly didn't know what to do. They assumed it was Lohan's room. She called her dad and locked herself in a bedroom and wouldn't come out. It's childish stuff. She's chronically distraught."
Mind you, this is the behavior of a 27-year-old in a room full of rich 18-year-olds.

Next-generation Very Light Car architecture takes center stage
April 19, 2013
The team at Edison2 has not been idle since winning the Progressive Insurance Automotive X Prize with its Very Light Car (VLC) back in 2010. An electric version of the VLC was unveiled in 2011 and this month saw the new architecture that will form the basis of the company's consumer prototype unveiled at the The Henry Ford museum.
While exterior renderings of the new version definitely look more like a vehicle of the future, the same principles that underlined the purpose built, X-Prize winning original are still at the fore – extremely light weight and optimal aerodynamic efficiency.
The VLC X Prize design weighs just 830 lbs (376 kg) and boasts the lowest drag coefficient ever recorded at the GM Aero Lab for a four passenger car at 0.160. According to Edison2, the next generation VLC trumps its predecessor in terms of aerodynamic efficiency, with the gains helping offset some of the additions required for a consumer friendly version, such as rear vision mirrors.
The new VLC also sports improved driver visibility, a roomier interior with easier entry and egress, a chassis made from aluminum sheet metal (as opposed to tubular steel) and larger wheels that result in more travel for the in-wheel suspension set-up.
This in-wheel suspension, which is clearly visible in the VLC rolling chassis now on display at The Henry Ford, is one of the key components of the design. As well as improving aerodynamics, it improves handling, reduces mass and the complexity of the vehicle as a whole.
"We believe we can replace the twist beam suspension, even in existing cars … but it will take time," says Edison2's Founder & Chief Executive Officer, Oliver Kuttner.
No specific time frame has been given for the roll-out of the VLC consumer model, but the company believes its architecture "has a promising future in domestic and international markets" that includes "applications in suspension and vehicle segments far beyond Edison2's current designs."
"This car opens up the possibility for a whole new type of car…in a much more responsible, sustainable way to the future," adds Kuttner.
The new VLC rolling architecture is currently on display at The Henry Ford alongside the X Prize VLC.
This is one project we'll be watching closely as it evolves – stay tuned for updates.

This is a sporty golf cart with big wheels and a roll cage. Make it more comfortable for older people and they may buy it. I live in a very small town in south Texas, but very big trucks drive through in convoys. If this car has good acceleration to get across the highway, and excellent air conditioning for the 100 degree F days, I could take it to work.dchall8
This looks like something I might actually drive. More practical and less sporty than Ariel Atom and X-Bow but not a conventional automobile.
I think if I owned one the hypermiler wheel covers would get replaced with covers closer to what is on the atom though.Daishi
I think the newer one is a lot nicer than the older one. I would not mind driving the newer one. It has - IMO - a very futuristic look to it. I think the name should be Hammerhead. From above, it has a look of a hammerhead shark (at least the front end does).BigGoofyGuy
Although, I'm not ready to give up the big highway cruiser just yet, I'd go for something like that for local trips to the store. Can you imagine getting T-Boned by an Escalade?
As an afterthought, a couple of those Protean in wheel drive motors in the back would make a great type class. "Gentlemen, push your buttons"pickypilot
This looks like the Aptera four wheel design with parts of the three wheel design tacked on and the drag coefficient of 0.160 is not as low as the Aptera which is 0.150. The Aptera also makes extensive use of aluminum in the chassis. It would be interesting to see if the weight and mileage approach the Aptera, not to mention the durability of the shell, which on the Aptera is able to withstand repeated blows from a small sledge hammer!Jerry Peavy
Am I missing something here? Here we have another new and improved Edison 2 (or VLC or whatever) 3 years after the X-prize was awarded. Correct me if I'm wrong - and I usually am - but my understanding of this competition was to enable the winning design to be brought to PRODUCTION at a reasonable price to the general motoring public. A manufacturing and marketing plan was to be submitted along with the vehicle. So where is that car? Where can we purchase it and if it's not yet available, at what stage is the actual production? When is the rollout and how much is the price? What will be the annual operating cost? Inquiring minds - or at least mine - want to know. Better we should pay attention to someone who wanted to enter the contest but dropped out because he couldn't get his car done in time: Jack MacCornack. He has since completed and thoroughly roadtested the MAX, a car designed to achieve 100 mpg (which it does) and made with with mostly off-the-shelf parts so any d.i.y-er can duplicate his efforts for under $10,000. Check out http://www.kineticvehicles.com/MAX/html for FREE info and plans (and no, I am not connected with Jack or Kinetic in any way...just a guy who wants to see lots of high-mileage vehicles on the road and thinks the X-prize folks should ask for their money back).Neil Larkins
Oliver Kuttner is a rare visionary in this field, like Steve Fambro (Aptera). He has given me hope that I might see the kind of car I have wanted for 40 years: an efficient, sexy, safe, coupe with a reasonable price. I would take it with an ICE, and replace that with an electric motor when batteries are practical.
I'll buy whichever in available first: Aptera, or Edison2 VLC.Don Duncan
Yup glimpse of Metropolitan future almost zero emission driving. I like it. Lotus all over again!Nicolas Zart
all fine until the insurace companies say no, and thats the end of it.Micheal Donnellan
Say no to heavy, bulky, mass children/people killing machines on the road (a bit of a hyperbole). Lighter vehicles is truly the future way to go in every aspect.Fretting Freddy the Ferret pressing the Fret
I think that foam steel should be incorporated into the structure for safety purposes in the event of an accident. External air bags which could be deployed electronically in an unavoidable collision should also be considered. The new technology should gradually be incorporated into present cars to make them both lighter and more aerodynamic but it will take time. My 2003 Echo does 50 mpg (country 90%, city 10%) with only aerodynamic changes such as frontal edge, partial front undercarriage cover, base of windshield cover, fuel fins on top, sides and back trunk, full plastic wheel covers on the back wheels and partials on the front and with holes drilled in the back bumper to ease up the suction at speeds above 45mph.Adrian Akau
Raise the passenger compartment father from the ground, lower the lip at the bottom of the door, and do not put a electric drive system in it and I could see myself driving it.Slowburn
I find the in wheel suspension particularly interesting. I'd like to see that out there, particularly in an electric design.Bruce Sherman
we should all be embracing this technology,and reading some of the comments people need to educate themselves on just how difficult it is to get a car into production,let alone one that is light years ahead of the rest.Safety ? look at F1 racing and driver's surviving 200 mph crashes,we can make light weight vehicles very strong,so getting T-Boned by an Escalade should not be a problem.The major manufactures don't want to break out of the box,their content making minor changes year after year,complaining how they can't meet CAFE's fuel requirements.I think they need to spend some of their record profits on the Edison 2 and the technology used.We should have more than 30-40 mpg cars in 2013,their are no excuses.Thomas Lewis

I need seating for one, and around 40 cubic feet of cargo space. Just a radio and heater, nothing fancy to drive the price up. I'd prefer electric or hybrid with electric only mode. All-wheel drive, about 10 inches ground clearance. Top speed 75-80 mph, Range about 100 miles, and that covers my needs. Some day my first generation Honda Insight will need to be replaced.Grainpaw
re; Thomas Lewis
Meeting the wrong headed CAFE standards with cars that a majority of consumers want and can afford to buy is not easy.Slowburn
Too few comments for so many well-implemented great ideas in one car, but some of the critique is excellent. Hope Gizmag will make voting for-against comments possible soon.YuraG
I've been wondering when we will see more of these. They aren't much different than SXS's or ATV which probably will be legal soon enough.Layne Nelson
I love it! This is exactly what we should have in all of our cities - impose a proper congestion charge/heavy weight vehicle charge so that any car over 500kg or using a petrol motor has to stay out and only things like this would be cruising around... just imagine how much nicer it would be! This is all the car that the majority of urban dwellers need for 90% of their trips - hire a car if you need to go interstate.hiredassassin
forget land vehicles....will soon be historyStewart Mitchell
Now this is what I'm on about! Light weight = economy, better handling (active safety as opposed to adding scaffold bars to the doors etc), plus being able to push the thing single- handed when it ceases to proceed.
But mostly the point of 'adding lightness'... It'll go FASTER. Loose the back wheels altogether and graft on a 600cc bike engine & transmission, and name it after a poisionous animal, job done.
Also liking the idea of a grown- up bubble car with a full-size cabin for more regular use, but that will doubtless be the harder sell.Robin Sutherland

If you've ever wondered what Snoop Dogg err Lion would look like wearing compression gear, now you know.
Snoop was recently seen wearing an adidas compression shirt while on set to make his very own kung-fu themed video game called "Way of the Dogg." Yeah, you read that correctly—a kung-fu video game, in which Snoop explores his own personal journey via blaxploitation-themed gameplay. We're not sure which is more shocking, Snoop in a video game or Snoop in a compression shirt. Nonetheless, he did give us another reason why compression gear isn't just for the gym.
The game is set to release on April 23rd, 2013. You can get your own adidas compression shirt here.

I'm pleased to report that the best mutton barbecue is found in Owensboro, a port city of 54,000 on the banks of the Ohio River that saw its heyday in the late 1800s. Located adjacent to the elevators and mills of Owensboro Grain, which fill the air with a malty odor, George's Bar-B-Q is quite literally on the wrong side of the tracks. At peak periods, it's parked up with old pickups in a way I associate with the rural barbecues of Texas. The 'cue reminds me of Texas, too: offered without fanfare and without sauce, though a vinegary "dip" is served on the side. The traditional accompaniments are limited to raw onions, dill pickles, and sliced white bread.
George's was founded in 1955, and the dining room reflects it. The brown Naugahyde booths are patched over with silver gaffer's tape, and the menu resembles that of a coffee shop, featuring sandwiches, hamburgers, and a local specialty called catfish fiddlers, in addition to barbecued mutton, pork, chicken, and beef. But enter the door of the adjacent carryout and find an institution that seems more ancient, a smoke-blackened inner sanctum of barbecue with a metal holding cabinet built into the wall, where meat is stacked in dented saucepans. In front stands a vintage Butcher Boy, an electric jigsaw that produces a high-pitched whine as bone is cut. A bill of fare offers several types of muttonchopped, shoulder, loin, and ribsdissecting retired sheep with the precision of a veterinary surgeon. Sold by the pound ($8.25) or by the sandwich ($2.99), shoulder is clearly the popular favorite, pulled in thick hanks streaked with yellow fat, smoky and mellow.
I had a conversation with the proprietor, who spoke in the lilting Southern drawl of the area, proudly asserting, "When I bought George's 15 years ago, I didn't change a thing." He smokes his 'cue for 10 or 11 hours using a combination of hickory and sassafrasa tree common in these parts that lends a sweetness and pungency to the meat. In fact, one of Owensboro's prime tourist attractions is a sassafras tree, which at 300 is said to be the world's oldest. Mutton loin ($5.25 per pound) has a Hannibal Lecter quality about it, a pair of chops gruesomely attached to back ribs that radiate from a spine oozing marrow. Ribs are probably my favorite, long meaty bones with skin attached, smoked until they've reached the color of mahogany. But the connoisseur's favorite is a sandwich called "off the pit" ($3.49), filled with meat sliced from the surface of the shoulder just as it's pulled from the smoke. The mutton is dark, crunchy, and deeply flavorfuland you won't mind paying the extra 50 cents for the sandwich.

Beurre Blanc - Condiments
Print version
Beurre Blanc
A delicious sauce that goes especially well on simply cooked fish
8 sticks (4 cups) unsalted butter
2 shallots, peeled and finely diced
1 cup dry white wine
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar
1 lemon
salt and white pepper to taste
very finely minced parsley or fresh tarragon (optional)
1. Cut the butter in small cubes and put in a bowl. Set the bowl in ice water. (The butter should be very cold; otherwise it might melt too quickly and the sauce might break.)
2. Place shallots in a medium stainless-steel saucepan. Add the white wine and wine vinegar. Boil the liquid over high heat until it is reduced to a scant 1 tablespoon.
3. Just before serving, add the pieces of butter to the pan, 1 at a time, whisking well after each addition, until it has all been used. (The sauce should be fairly thick.) Add a little lemon juice to the sauce to taste. Season with salt and white pepper.
4. If you're a purist, you'll want to strain the shallots out of the sauce before serving. Some chefs prefer to leave the shallots in; if you're among them, you might also want to mix finely minced parsley or tarragon into the sauce. And some chefs like to bolster the sauce with a little créme fräche just before serving it.
This sauce had an incredible renaissance in french and American restaurants of the eighties. It's an old, classic concoction from france's Loire Valley, but it fell into disfavor during the Reign of flour-based french Sauces, which lasted through most of the twentieth century. Then, starting in the seventies, nouvelle cuisine chefs started calling for lighter food, and flour-based sauces went out of fashion. Ironically, no one should call a sauce that's practically pure butter light, but it turned up in one lightened kitchen after another. No matter what its degree of saturated fat, it's a delicious sauce that goes especially well on simply cooked fish. It's also lovely with vegetables. Makes enough to sauce 8 entrees

Our conclusion is that transport providers in North-east Scotland are generally positive and satisfied with their current business performance. In the past 12 months, the sector has witnessed an increase in productivity and reported turnover, and this has led to net positive increase in profitability. However, the level of profit increase that may have been possible was negatively affected by costs. Not surprisingly, the main cost component affecting transport providers has been fuel. As a result, the pressure on profitability arising from costs appears to be the underlying theme of this report. There is a high level of satisfaction with the local business environment and it's clear that providers find a highly conducive environment for doing business in the North-east and consider this the most satisfying factor. However this level of satisfaction is countered by the high dissatisfaction expressed in the local infrastructure. It would appear that while the North-east may provide an enabling environment in many forms, such as business opportunities, wealth and skills, the same can't be said about the level of infrastructural availability and quality but providers expect a significant improvement in infrastructure in the next three years. They also expect significant improvements in technology and further improvements in the local environment. We conclude that transport in North-east Scoland, in terms of providers, is stable and continues to show signs of growth in spite of tough times in the wider economy 2012-08-01T00:00:00Z Tourism network sector survey report 2011 http://hdl.handle.net/10059/820 Title: Tourism network sector survey report 2011 Authors: Atorough, Peter Abstract: Member's needs are at the heart of the work of the Aberdeen and Grampian Chamber of Commerce and, as a result, we have formed a range of sector-interest groups from within our membership of more than 1,200 organisations allowing us to target specific needs with increasingly tailored services and benefits. As part of these services, the Chamber are pleased to publish a series of surveys to provide sector specific research on businesses in North-east Scotland; the first being tourism. The aim of this survey is to assess the state of tourism within the North-east by comparing current performance against previous performance, identifying factors and issues affecting the industry, estimating the impact of policy and other public enablers on profitability and establishing the overall optimism of the industry on future growth and performance. Our conclusion is that overall, the prospects for the tourism sector in North-east Scotland appear to be bright. Businesses are optimistic about their future, opportunities exist for investment and new ventures, the local environment is regarded as very supportive and visitor numbers appear to be on the rise. 2012-08-01T00:00:00Z

Today Gitta and Paula drove us over the big Afsluitdyke! I've been wanting to see this! We stopped at the monument and took in the views. There is a monument to the man Lely who was behind the dyke being built. The dyke is 7m above average sea level and about 30km long. Quite a lot of people driving and cycling across today. We stopped a bit further along to have our lunch on the dyke. Very nice. Next a drive down through Friesland to ...

FORT COLLINS — Incumbent Democrat Betsy Markey concedes her independent streak probably got her into trouble with her voting base in the massive 4th Congressional District. But Markey thinks the straight-shooting rural voters of the 32,000-square-mile 4th appreciate her efforts to help everyone, not just her Democratic backers.
"When I came to Congress, I tried to be an independent voice, and I think people recognize that," said Markey, whose first term was marked by breaks with President Barack Obama's agenda.
But Republican challenger Cory Gardner, a state lawmaker from Yuma, sees Markey and her work for the 4th differently.
"I hear from people all over; they feel they've been betrayed," Gardner said.
Colorado's Election 2010
Election News and Candidate Info
Markey has been targeted by national Republicans ever since she defeated conservative Marilyn Musgrave in 2008 (in a district carried by Republican John McCain). Musgrave's loss ended a GOP domination of the 4th District that lasted 35 years.
Voter and poll numbers favor GOP
Through August, Republicans held an advantage among active voters in the district, with 129,918, compared with 114,609 for Democrats and 97,042 who are unaffiliated. That places the district among Republicans' top targets as they look for the 39 seats needed to assume control of the House.
A poll conducted in late August for the American Action Forum, headed by two prominent Republicans, showed Gardner leading Markey 50 percent to 39 percent. A Markey campaign poll showed she and Gardner in a dead heat.
The reality is likely somewhere in between but with Gardner still holding a decided advantage, said Steve Mazurana, a retired University of Northern Colorado political science professor who is active in local politics.
"Generally, the first real re-election is the most perilous for all members of Congress in normal times," Mazurana said. "And now this is particularly true for Betsy Markey."
A sagging national economy and a bleak jobs picture — and what Republicans say was overreaching by jubilant Democrats in 2008 — all make it especially tough for Markey, Mazurana said.
"A lot of people blame the Democrats for this situation, and frankly the Democrats over-promised on the economy, claiming they'd get people back to work," Mazurana said.
Incumbent has fundraising edge
One factor that could help Markey is the entry of two third-party candidates, he said. Either American Constitution Party candidate Doug Aden of Fort Lupton or independent Ken "Wasko" Waszkiewicz of Fort Collins could take votes from Gardner.
Markey and her allies are putting significant money into defending the seat.
Through the most recent campaign-finance reporting period in July, Markey held a significant fundraising advantage — $2.2 million raised with $1.5 million on hand — over Gardner — $1.3 million raised and $735,000 on hand, according to Federal Election Commission records.
Outside groups have spent more than $500,000 supporting the incumbent or opposing Gardner, according to a database maintained by The Sunlight Foundation, a campaign-finance watchdog.
Markey said voters will reward her willingness to vote for what's best for the 4th District. She said she's parted with Obama on his budget, his appropriations bill and in extending unemployment benefits.
She also supports a balanced-budget amendment and will use the new health care law to attack waste and abuse in Medicare. Her willingness to work with Republicans also makes her more effective, she said.
"We need to recognize we are in a global recession and to ask ourselves, 'What can we do to move forward?' " Markey said.
Her efforts are appreciated by Les Gelvin, who runs a farm and ranch real estate company near Fort Collins.
"I think she's the best representative we've ever had," said Gelvin, who is unaffiliated. "She's smart, she doesn't have a political agenda, and she wants what is best for the 4th District."
Still, GOP rival Gardner sees Markey as someone who has done little to ease the pain for small businesses and working people in the district.
"From town-hall meetings to coffee shops to neighborhoods, all I hear are worries about too much spending and the growth of government."
Markey's voting record is so closely aligned with controversial House Speaker Nancy Pelosi that it's hard to tell the two apart, Gardner said.
"She voted for health care, the failed stimulus bill, a cap-and-trade energy bill . . . instead of voting for the district, she voted with Pelosi," he said.
He also wants a balanced budget and to launch reform on entitlement programs. Gardner does not talk much about hot-button social issues, like his support for Colorado's proposed "personhood" amendment.
"Everyone in this district is focused on jobs and spending," he said. "They are worried about the future of their families and businesses."
Mark Hillman — a former state treasurer and current Republican national committeeman — said Gardner's roots in the rural Eastern Plains make him the ideal person to fight for the overlooked people in the district.
"Cory is a principled conservative who fights for the people he represents," Hillman said. "But his demeanor and approach are moderate — never 'in your face' or condescending. He's so optimistic and engaging that it's very hard not to like him once you meet him."

Configuring a trapeze
A simple ''light line'' from the stern with a terminal "J" hook to fit to your harness would be proper. There is danger in all this as the more ''clutter'' you add to a trapeze arrangement the greater the danger of a non-release or entanaglement when you (you will) capsize. The greatest danger in singlehanding while on a trapeze is that all the harness connections should be "bombproof'' for instant release - especially when you are underwater and upside down! Be sure to always wear a very sharp sheath knife!
For boat control and recovery "after" you fall off, simply drag a light polypropylene line with a loop in the terminal end, the other end is connected to the tiller. If you can grasp the loop, a strong pull will swing the tiller to full athwartships position ... but then you probably will have to re-right the boat.

A sink exercise (SINKEX) benefits the U.S. Navy and participating allies and partners by providing crews the opportunity to gain proficiency in tactics, targeting and live firing against surface targets, which enhances combat readiness of deployable units.
"RIMPAC provides participating nations the opportunity to engage in world class training events such as this SINKEX. The generosity of the USN in providing these targets and the range facilities is greatly appreciated in allowing Canada to achieve a significant strategic milestone in delivering the Victoria class submarine with the successful launch of a Mk 48 torpedo by HMCS Victoria."
Former Navy vessels used in SINKEXs are prepared in strict compliance with regulations prescribed and enforced by the Environmental Protection Agency.
Strict environmental compliance is observed during all SINKEXs.
Each SINKEX is required to sink the hulk in at least 1,000 fathoms (6,000 feet) and at least 50 nautical miles from land.
Surveys are conducted to ensure that humans and marine mammals are not in an area where they could be harmed during the event.
Ex-USS Concord was a Mars-class combat stores ship commissioned in November 1968, decommissioned and transferred to Military Sealift Command in October 1992 and deactivated in August 2009.
Twenty-two nations, more than 40 ships and submarines, more than 200 aircraft and 25,000 personnel are participating in RIMPAC exercise from June 29 to August 3, in and around the Hawaiian Islands.
RIMPAC is the the world's largest international maritime exercise and provides a unique training opportunity that helps participants foster and sustain the cooperative relationships that are critical to ensuring the safety of sea lanes and security on the world's oceans.
RIMPAC 2012 is the 23rd exercise in the series that began in 1971.
