Airport Sputters, but Will Grow Again
Los Angeles World Airports remains committed to pushing flights from LAX to L.A./Ontario International Airport and its other outlying airports in Southern California.
That's good. Unfortunately, it's going to be difficult to do for a while, and it's impossible to say how long.
The nation's economic downturn, and especially the sky-high price of oil – and hence, jet fuel – is hitting ONT harder than just about any other midsize or larger airport in the country.
ONT will have lost about a third of its flights by November, after ExpressJet and JetBlue pull out. LAWA figures presented Wednesday to a committee of the L.A. City Council, which oversees LAWA, show a 28 percent drop in weekly seat capacity at ONT by the end of this calendar year.
Even Southwest, a successful beacon among struggling airlines and the carrier that accounts for half of ONT's traffic, will have a 16 percent drop in its ONT seat capacity this fall compared to last.
Delta will have reduced its ONT capacity by about 44 percent by year's end. United and U.S. Airways will have scaled back by about a quarter.
LAX, meanwhile, is losing about a tenth of its seat capacity. Nationwide, the figure is 7.7 percent.
To deal with the cost of fuel, airlines are pulling back to their hubs, and neither ONT nor LAX serve as hubs. Southwest, for example, has been adding flights to its Denver hub while reducing its ONT flights since April.
It's bleak for ONT right now after years of growth. The airport handled 7.2 million passengers in 2007, and has plans to start building a third terminal once it gets to 10 million in a year. There have been projections that ONT traffic would hit 30 million by 2035. But right now, there's even some buzz that, if flights keep disappearing, one of the two terminals that opened in 1998 could be closed to save money.
The airport is the Inland Valley's top economic engine, so this downturn hits us all – on top of the housing crisis we're already experiencing. And the loss of flights like JetBlue's to New York reduces Ontario's chances of attracting corporate offices.
On the individual level, it's getting harder to find flights at ONT and the flights that remain will be more crowded than ever. That's life in an economic downturn.
We're confident that things will turn around – just as the national economy will – and the airport will begin to grow again, eventually blooming into the true powerhouse regional leaders expect it to become. It's a bit harder now to predict when that might be.
Unfortunately, there's not a lot officials can do about the factors that are causing ONT's woes. LAWA must keep landing fees and other costs for airlines there as low as possible so that the airport will be ready to resume its growth once the economy turns around.
And we Inland Valley residents should keep ONT our airport of choice – remembering that saving the time, hassle and gas money that a trip to LAX entails more than compensates, usually, for a cheaper flight out of the bigger airport.

|Actually its possible to set up a top rope on Jet Stream without too much trouble. From the upper trail, walk out onto the higher rock to the left (when looking out) of the top of Jet Stream and then find the anchor bolts that are for some of the climbs that descend into the gully. From these bolts you can set up a rappel to safely get across the chasm and onto the rock where the Jet Stream anchor bolts are located. From here you can pull you rope and set up a rappel down to the bottom of Jet Stream. Now you have a top rope.

A difficult 5.9+, but a very good climb. However I think Jet Wind is a much better climb.
Though different anchors it shares the same lunch spot as Jet Wind.

This route is NOT 5.9. Rumor has it that it was downgraded from the original 5.10- grade by an unknown person. Following the bolts is a solid 5.10b IMO. If you deviate about 10' to the right hear the top roof, it would be about a 5.9. A hard 5.9 at that, as the first crux is a solid 5.10a.

The anchors are looking sketchy as of 9/27/14. Both are spinners, but it does not appear that the bolts have backed off, I think they might have pulled a little? Both bolts are sort of bendy when weight is applied.
I'm not an expert on fixed pro by any means, but this anchor worried me. Maybe next time someone with more experience is out there they can take a look.

|I'm replacing a bunch of bolts soon at French's Dome and Broughtons Bluff, should have a few extra. I'll take a look at the anchors and see about replacing them.

Originally written on Celtics Life | Last updated 11/18/14
It's interesting how each fan base is different as far as which Celtics they dislike the most. Chicago, it's Rondo. The Nets, it's Courtney Lee. Knicks fans seem to hate Jason Terry. But they all hate the Celtics, so there's that. I think my favorite comment this time was the guy whose phone auto-corrected Amare to Amateur, and they agreed that it was a robotic Freudian slip. Enjoy today's CFTOS!!! So glad I paid $70/ticket to take my son to the game tonight and noone is playing! Good. No Ray,no Pierce,no KG. There's no one to hit the game winner against us tonight. And there is no reason to watch this at all now They still have fresh uniforms... Looking like Woodson is setting himself up for a ready made excuse for why we're about to get blown out by the C's instead of having to explain to the mercurial NY Media why Melo/STAT/Chandler aren't meshing should they get blown out by the C's. I gotta be honest Amateur needs to be playing these games. ...

Think the Academy Awards show fell flat? The president of the American Advertising Federation of Des Moines has apologized for this year's Addy Awards show.
The annual gala, which honors the best in local advertising, is a chance for agencies to celebrate their work with colleagues and clients. But the Feb. 16 show "lacked the emphasis on saluting work that is the cornerstone of the Addy Awards," acknowledged Jason M. Boucher, president of the federation, in a letter sent Friday.
Boucher said in the letter that the show's skits and monologues, plus an introductory eight-minute video, were ...

Mizbani conquers climb, rules Le Tour
BAGUIO CITY—Ghader Mizbani has raced all over Asia in the last two decades and yesterday conquered what he said was the most difficult course he has seen to rule the 2013 Le Tour de Pilipinas.
The skipper of the Tabriz Petrochemical squad topped the strength-sapping, 132.7-kilometer climb from Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya, to here in four-hours, 30 minutes and eight seconds for the individual championship with teammate Amir Kolahdoz finishing second overall some 37 seconds behind.
The race was marred by the near-fatal crash of CCN rider and three-day overall leader Lee Ki-suk of South Korea after losing control in a downhill trek overlooking the Ambukalao dam, where he hit a metal barrier 92.5 kilometers into the stage and plunged 20 meters deep into a ravine.
Mizbani, who started the day 18 seconds behind in third spot, and Kolahdoz actually checked in with the same times after gobbling up Thomas Rabou in the last of three climbs in La Trinidad, Benguet, before practically pedaling as one all the way to the finish. Rabou finished third for the stage.
"I've been to many international races but this course is by far the most difficult," said Mizbani, who clocked a total of 16 hours, 38 minutes and 37 seconds for the four-day bikathon.
Lee, the overall leader the last three days, was saved by the trees and miraculously suffered just a broken right middle finger and bruises in his arms and legs.
Aside from the overall individual plum, Mizbani was also crowned Sprint King while the 20-year-old Kolahdoz was rewarded best young rider of the race presented by Air21 in partnership with San Miguel Beer and Smart.
Rabou, the Dutch rider from Singapore-based OCBC Cycling Team, was named King of the Mountain.
"I still have the legs. This is my second race this year after skipping the entire Asia Tour in 2012 because of a back injury," said Mizbani, 38, who placed eighth overall and second best among Asian riders in the Tour de Langkawi early this year.
Two-time local champion Mark Galedo of 7-Eleven Road Bike Philippines was the best-placed Filipino at eighth overall in the event backed by Standard Insurance, Jinbei, Victory Liner, San Mig Coffee, Magnolia Purewater, Red Media, Foton, Maynilad, Kia, Sign Media, Integrated Waste Management, Eurotel, American Vinyl, LBC and 7-Eleven.
Ronnel Hualda, also of 7-Eleven, was 11th overall with Joel Calderon of Philippine Navy Standard Insurance at 12th and Jonipher Ravina, last year's champion, placing 13th.

Best Uses
We used this product to decorate the outside of a 10 x 10 tent which we used as a station in our Camelot themed company picnic. THis was the place to begin and end a Knight's Quest the kids and parents alike loved it!! Having the customized banner across the top was wonderful.
Best Uses
The kit looked great! It is really for indoor use so I had to re-inforce it considerable and build lumber bases so it would not blow away during the parade. The personalized banner looked great and made a big impact. Everyone was impressed with the final result!
Some of the smaller pieces were not scored. We had to manually fold them which made it look odd. But overall, it was what we needed for our event.

Izaak Maurits (Piet) Kolthoff (Father of Analytical Chemistry]) (February 11, 1894 - March 4, 1993) was a highly influential chemist, widely considered the Father of Analytical Chemistry. He was given this title based on his development of analytical chemistry as a modern science. His research dealt with analytical and physical chemistry.[2] His main research topics included potentimetry, conductometry, polarography, theory and application of indicators, acid-base equilibria and titrations in aqueous and non-aqueous media, formation, properties and aging of precipitates, adsorption, coprecipitation, post-precipitation, and induced reactions. He is also credited in development of the polarograph, an instrument for recording polarization of electrolytes. During World War II he served as chairman of the Committee on Analytical research Methods and supervisor of three research projects for the U.S. Government on synethic or "cold process" rubber.[2]
Dr. Kolthoff believed that fundamentals of physical chemistry, biochemistry, and pharmaceutical chemistry should also apply to analytical chemistry, and by doing so further developed the then artful analytical chemistry by applying these fundamentals to analytical processes. Motto:"Theory guides, experiment decides."

Izaak Kolthoff was the son of Moses and Rosetta Kolthoff was born in Almelo, Netherlands. He is the youngest of three children. During his early education in high school, his first chemistry course allowed him to develop a keen interest in the subject. This inspired him to create his own laboratory in his kitchen. Some of his experiments involved hydrogen sulfide to the dismay of his family. After graduating from high school in 1911 he entered the School of Pharmacy at the University of Utrecht. The reason he began his studies in pharmacy rather than chemistry was that he lacked Latin and Greek, which at that time were prerequisites for admission to the "pure" physical sciences. Nevertheless, the pharmacy curriculum at Utrecht was thorough and involved a great deal of analytical chemistry.[3] Kolthoff's pharmacy professor, Nicholas Schoorl, was a great influence in his life. Schoorl emphasized a proper balance between descriptive chemistry and the fundamental principles of the field. He was an important part of Kolthoff's life education. Schoorl drew Kolthoff's attention to early papers in electro-analytical chemistry as well as co-precipitation. He was also responsible for advising Kolthoff to study analytical chemistry from a scientific perspective as opposed to an empirical art.[4] Upon graduation, Kolthoff obtained an "apotheker" dimploma in 1915. He continued his education by taking more courses at Utrecht in physical and colloid chemistry. By 1918, the University had dropped its requirement for Latin and Greek and he received a Ph.D. in chemistry.[3]
After college, Izaak Kolthoff was known for his originality, insight and timeliness of his published work. Kolthoff published his first paper in 1915 on pH, a new concept at the time. By 1918 he had already published 32 papers. From 1924-1927 he authored or coauthored eight textbooks and monographs. At his time of retirement, he had published 809 research papers and nine textbooks published.[4] Over the next thirty years he published another 136 papers. From 1959 to 1980 he coedited thirty four volumes of reference books. Kolthoff continued his stay at Utrecht as a conservator and then as a lecturer in electrochemistry. In 1924, he was invited on a lecture tour in Canada and the United States.[3] He also served as chairman of the Committee on Analytical Research Methods and supervisor of three research projects for the U.S. Government on synthetic rubber. This work was specifically about the emulsion polymerization process. This was a crucial step to the military for making synthetic rubber as natural rubber supplies had been stopped. He was also considered a political and social justice activist. In the early 1950s, the Un-American Activities Committee accused Kolthoff of belonging to thirty two subversive organizations. This was directly after he criticized Senator Joseph McCarthy's persecution of perceived communists. No actions was taken against him. Also, he helped German scientist persecuted by Hitler to find jobs at the University of Minnesota.[5]
Kolthoff never married and lived most of his life a short distance from the Chemistry building. After retirement, he continued working with his lab assistant Miron Chantooni. He died on a Thursday at Bethesda Lutheran Hospital and Rehabilitation Center in St. Paul, and according to his trustee Sidney Barrows, his death was due to kidney failure.[4]
In 1924, Kolthoff went on a lecture tour in the United States and Canada. Soon after, he was offered a position as professor and chief of the Analytical Division of the School of Chemistry at the University of Minnesota in 1927. Initially, he had a contract for just one year but his position there became permanent. In his letter of acceptance he stated, "I may assure you that [on] my side I will try to do my duty as well as possible and I hope that your expectations will not be disappointed." He remained at the University of Minnesota until he nominally retired in 1962. After he retired, he remained active in research until the late 1980s.[3]
Kolthoff was a member of many honorary groups. These included the National Academy of Sciences. He was also a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, an honorary member of the American Pharmaceutical Association, and an honorary member of eight foreign chemical societies.[4]
Degrees and Awards[edit]
He received many Honorary Doctor of Science degrees from the University of Chicago, the University of Groningen, Brandeis University, and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. He received these awards from each of the universities in 1955, 1964, 1974, and 1975, respectively. Also, the Netherlands Government knighted him in 1947 as a Commander in the Order of Orange-Nassau.[4] The American Chemical Society recognized Dr. Kolthoff for his work in modern analytical chemistry, awarding him with the William H. Nichols Medal in 1949.[5] He also received the Robert Boyle Medal from the Royal Society of Chemistry in England, the Charles Medal of the Charles University in Prague, and the Fisher Award, among other awards and medals. On his eightieth birthday, the Division of Analytical Chemistry of the American Chemical Society sponsored the I.M. Kolthoff 80th Anniversary Symposium. The Regents of the University of Minnesota named the new chemistry research building Kolthoff Hall in 1972 in his honor.[4]
The main areas of research were as diverse as they were full of insight. The main areas of his research were pH, Electron transfer, precipitation reactions, voltammetry, emulsion polymerization, induced reactions, compounds containing sulfhydryl and disulfide groups, and nonaqueous solutions.[3]
"Proton transfer reactions in analytical chemistry: the pH concept, titrations, indicators, and buffers"[edit]
Proton transfer reactions in analytical chemistry: the pH concept, titrations, indicators, and buffers was Dr. Kolthoff's first paper. It dealt with the titration of phosphoric acid as a mono- and diprotic acid.
"Electron transfer and precipitation reactions"[edit]
This topic arose from his thesis work on the fundamentals of iodimetry. In this work he discussed the variety of reactions occurring in iodimetry, the mechanisms of these reactions, side reactions, and titration errors.
"Formation and properties of precipitates"[edit]
Dr. Kolthoff spent much time with precipitates. He discovered many new things about crystalline precipitates. He used radiotracers, thorium B for lead and bromine activated by neutrons from a radon-beryllium source to study the highly imperfect crystalline precipitates. These structures underwent aging when above ambient temperatures, meaning purification by recrystallization takes place.
J. Heyrovsky was the inventor of polarography and introduced the topic to Kolthoff in 1933. Polarography is the measurement of voltammetry at the dropping mercury electrode. Two of Kolthoff's students began working on voltammetry.
"Emulsion Polymerization"[edit]
Dr. Kolthoff was asked to work with the major rubber companies to create a synthetic rubber for the war effort. He was asked to develop analytical methods so that the rates at which reactants were consumed could be determined. N-dodecyl mercaptan was a constituent that turned out to be key reactant. It is referred to as OEI for "one essential ingredient." Dr. Kolthoff developed a method for the determination of OEI based on amperometric titration at the rotated platinum microelectrode with silver nitrate. His method found worldwide use after the war. Immediately after this research, Dr. Kolthoff looked into factors influencing the rates of reaction of mercaptans. He also studied the kinetics and mechanism of emulsion polymerization in general. This later led to initiating systems that worked at lower temperatures and produced "cold rubber." "Cold rubber" had superior properties to natural rubber.
"Induced Reactions"[edit]
Dr. Kolthoff studied a number of induced reactions, including the iron(II)-hydrogen peroxide reaction, and showed that hydroxyl radicals in the first step can induce the oxidation of many organic compounds.
"Compounds containing sulfhydryl and disulfide groups"[edit]
He also underwent extensive studies that included compounds containing sulfhydryl and disulfide groups starting in 1950. The papers may be the first in bioelectrochemistry.
"Chemistry of nonaqueous solutions."[edit]
In the early 1950s, Dr. Kolthoff began a long series of studies on how solvents influence the properties of solutes. The contributions of proton transfer followed by electrolytic dissociation were resolved by these studies. He also became interested in reactions of macrocyclic ligands in various solvents.
Der Gebrauch von Farbenindikatoren (1922)[edit]
His first published monogram. This book went through many German editions and then was translated into English at Princeton University. It was later titled Acid-Base Indicators after being expanded in 1937 with C. Rosenblum as coauthor.[3]
Konduktometrische Titrationen and Potentiometric Titrations[edit]
During the period when he was working on iodimetry, he began to use conductometry and poteniometry which led to these two monograms. Potentiometric Titrations was especially influential, not only in analytical chemistry, but in other fields as well.[3]
This was a continuation of his fundamental studies of classical methods. It was translated and coauthored by N.H. Furman. It later appeared in 1928 as Volumetric Analysis. It also appeared much later (1942–1958) in an expanded three-volume edition coauthored by V.A. Stenger, G. Matsuyama, and R. Belcher. Dr. Kolthoff served as adviser to Maurits Dekker and Eric Proskauer in creating Interscience Publishers.[3]
His introduction to voltammetry. It was expanded in 1952 into two volumes.[3]
Emulsion Polymerization[edit]
This book immediately followed Dr. Kolthoff's studies on "cold rubber." It was coauthored with F.A. Bovey, A.I. Medalia, and E.J. Meehan.[3]
The Colorimetric and Potentiometric Determination of pH[edit]
The Colorimetric and Potentiometric Determination of pH was Dr. Kolthoff's first book and was published in 1931. It was mostly meant to be used as text.[3]
Textbook of Quantitative Inorganic Analysis[edit]
This was his second text published. It was considered to have an "admirable balance between the fundamentals and the experimental features of the field." This book served as a model for future texts.[3]
Treatise on Analytical Chemistry[edit]
This is said to be his most monumental production. Part I deals with the general fundamentals of analytical chemistry. Part II deals with the analytical chemistry of organic and inorganic compounds in more specific terms. Part III concerns analytical chemistry in industry. The Treatise had a huge impact on the world and is the principal reference source of analytical chemistry.[3]

California Highway Patrol Newhall area officers arrested two and impounded two cars Sunday as part of a 3-month undercover investigation into a Santa Clarita Valley car club.
Don't miss a thing. Get breaking Santa Clarita news alerts delivered right to your inbox.
CHP officers worked with the Alcohol Beverage Control and the U.S. Forestry Service shutting down what officers identified on social media as an alleged illegal car club called Realrunners.
Armen Laloyan, 37, of Hesperia, and a juvenile, were both cited and released Sunday. The juvenile was released to his parents.
Both were charged with a violation of the section of vehicle code known as "Speed Contests." It states: "A person shall not engage in a motor vehicle exhibition of speed on a highway, and a person shall not aid or abet in a motor vehicle exhibition of speed on any highway."
A plain-clothed officers from the CHP's Investigative Services Unit and the ABC reported Sunday members of the club were "performing burnouts and blocking the roadway" on Bouquet Canyon Road in front of Big Oaks Lodge.
Uniformed officers from the Newhall area office and the Forestry Service responded and picked "the most egregious offenders," officials said.
The investigation was conducted in response to numerous complaints of reckless driving near Big Oaks Lodge on the 33100 block of Bouquet Canyon Road, officials said in a statement.
In addition to the two arrests made Sunday, several other members of the Realrunners club were identified by CHP officials on scene and will be charged for previously committed violations, according to officials.
That was the targeted area for the operation.

I would be curious to know what the average number of RBIs across the NL this year from the third spot in the lineup. When David Wright went down a few days ago, he had 54 RBIs and McCutchen has 65 RBIs. With Votto coming in at 52, he isn't that far off at all. Also of note, the 3 players I mentioned also are 3 of the 5 position players in the NL with a WAR above 5. I couldn't imagine how bad the Reds would suck if they had Wright and McCutchen on this team and their lack of RBI production.

Having better players makes "the right time" or "the big hit" happen a lot more often. PLUS PLUS
remdog (08-08-2013)
But of course that didn't fit the narrative back then, now did it?
numbersinthereds.blogspot.com Also blogging at Banished to the Pen.
Votto's going to have a 12 rbi game and there will be lots of "are ya happy NOW!?!?"
This was very surprising, but whoever was on WLW at about 6:30 made very good arguments why focusing on the RBI stat is a fool's game. He used the example of the first inning, when Joey did not get an RBI because he hit the ball too hard to score the runner from second, but Bruce got an RBI because he just barely beat out the relay throw on a weak grounder to SS.
At this point, it is about as absurd as complaining about Adam Dunn's sacrifice fly streak back in the lost decade.

I really like ESPN's attempt at the well hit average stat. Instead of just looking at BABIP lets truly look at each at bat and see if he hit it well or not. Seems like a good start.
Cabrera gets a big help by having Fielder hitting behind him. Pitchers have a fear of Prince, not so much of Phillips. I'd like to see if Votto got pitched differently if Bruce had a couple hundred atbats hitting behind Votto a season, instead of a handful of games.
...the 2-2 to Woodsen and here it comes...and it is swung on and missed! And Tom Browning has pitched a perfect game! Twenty-seven outs in a row, and he is being mobbed by his teammates, just to the thirdbase side of the mound.
