Set in Glasgow, the show has gone on to enjoy worldwide fame and as the cast celebrates a quarter of a century of solving crimes, Katie McKenna wishes them a very "Happy Birthday"
Taggart is the longest running crime drama series on UK television. Set on the grimy streets of Glasgow, the show first aired with pilot Killer in 1983, when the tenements were still black with coal smoke and Buchanan Street was a far cry from the cosmopolitan shopping mecca that we know and love today. Six years later, Blythe Duff joined the show as DS Jackie Reid – the only remaining character to have starred along the show's namesake, played by Mark McManus.
Mark sadly passed away in 1994 after appearing in 31 episodes of the series (the cast recently celebrated its 100th episode). But testament to the strength of the remaining characters and scriptwriters, the show continued and has gone on to be popular around the world.
When competition from the BBC gets tough, ITV air Taggart – always a strong contender in the ratings war.
In the year that the show turns a quarter of a century, the lead cast of Blythe Duff (DS Jackie Reid), John Michie (DI Robbie Ross), Alex Norton (DCI Matt Burke) and Colin McCredie (DC Stuart Fraser) talk of the shows strengths, their love affair with Glasgow and why sometimes, being the only girl in a man's world is a very tough job indeed.
Taggart is celebrating its 25th year, why do you think it has lasted such a long time?
Blythe: I think it's still true to its original notion, which is a whodunit, and it still has very strong production values. The audience has been really faithful to it over the years and they tune in knowing what they are going to get. We don't really know what the answer is – all we do know is that people still watch it.
John: There's something very real about it because although it's not a procedural show – it's primarily a whodunit – you meet loads of cops who really like it. They say that it's quite true to the way that they do their investigations, which is quite surprising.
Blythe: There is blackness to the humour that is akin to normal police work. I think there is that sort of laughing in the face of the horrific scenes that they have to deal with it. There is a lightness about it and we always have strong writers.
How do you think it has changed over
the years?
Colin: I think Taggart has always been one of these shows that has kept up with the times. We've always kept on changing and I think that is testament to the show. I think if we hadn't changed we would have been out of date by now. I think as well because the city of Glasgow has changed so much – the Garden Festival, European City of Culture – we document and we film that. If you go back to the very first Taggart it is nothing like how the city is now. Maybe that's the reason Taggart has kept going because over the past 25 years Glasgow has seen a resurgence and regeneration.
Do you all feel quite proud of the city?
Alex: Yes very much so. This is my hometown; I was born here. It's a great honour to be part of a show that is so identifiable with Glasgow. It's hard to think of Taggart without Glasgow and Glasgow without Taggart.
Colin: For a lot of people around the world, Taggart is their only perception of Scotland so it's quite a pressure but as Alex says, quite an honour as well.
Do you think that Taggart gives a good impression of Glasgow?
Alex: We give a better impression of Glasgow than that place in Midsomer Murders. Do not live in that village!
How do the public react to you when they see you filming?
Alex: Mostly very favourably. They say that they love the show and watch it all the time. I think Glasgow is very proud of the fact that Taggart is such a kind of icon and been going for so long.
Blythe, you're the longest serving cast
member. How much of yourself is in your character?
I think there is essence of Jackie Reid in me and vice versa. I quite like my character and it doesn't bother me that we are quite similar in some respects. I have got a much nicer family life than Jackie is ever going to have. She has committed herself to her work, so much so that it's at the detriment to her family. I think she could be a wee but funnier but she's a strong role model for a lot of women out there.
Do you all feel that there is some of you in your character?
John: I think as an actor you always have an element of yourself in it because it's all about recreating someone that is as true as possible. The only truth you know is the truth that you have. Any part you play, even if it's a million miles away from you, even if it's John Hurt playing the Elephant Man, there is an essence of you.
How do you prepare and do research?
All (amid much laughter): We're way past that now!
Colin: We do have a police advisor who goes through the script but luckily Blythe's husband is an ex-detective so if there is a pressing matter on set we can always get a hotline to him. In real life I always ask people questions, so maybe that's rubbed off on me.
John: I went to speak to DIs in Govan and Hamilton and looked at the way they dressed and behaved. But in reality if I was a DI I wouldn't be at crime scenes but would spend most of my time behind a desk. So that bit we disregard, for dramatic purposes!
What do you think the future of Taggart is?
John: We are at the mercy of the ITV schedule and the audience. If people keep watching then we will continue to make it.
What would you like to see happen to your characters in their personal lives?
John: Well a bit more shagging would be good!
Blythe: You should be so lucky! No one's had a successful love life so maybe we should all get nice partners.
Colin: Perhaps that and going to Australia to film or something like that…
You've all worked together for a while. Is it fun behind the scenes?
Colin: It is. We all share a trailer so there's no kind of starry separate stuff – I think that's been a good thing. There is quite a team feel on set as well.
Blythe: That was something that always happened in Mark's day. It was something that drifted on through the series and we were never going to change that. Mark was very non-starry. When he died it would have seemed strange if we changed that routine.
It really shows the strength of the show that it could carry on without Mark.
Blythe: When you think about it, he has now been in a third of the actual series. Alex got his 50th episode today, Mark was only in 31.
Were you fans of the show before you got your parts?
Colin: I was in primary seven! I've watched it all the way through secondary school and drama school. Lots of my friends got parts in it so I always had an ambition to get a part in Taggart but I never thought for a minute that it would be as a regular. It's amazing for me, 14 years after leaving drama school, that I'm still doing it.
John: Mark McManus was really quite unique wasn't he? He was a bit over-the-top I think but in those days the storylines were quite over-the-top as well. I did a Taggart as well with Mark, almost 20 years ago. I enjoyed working with him and meeting him. I never thought I would be in the show.
Blythe: Very few actors get that sort of stability and it's brilliant. Alex was in it before he got this part.
Alex: As the red herring.
Colin: I was a car thief and a farm hand. It's great to be on a successful network show and stay in Scotland. It's the only sort of show that will afford you that kind of lifestyle.
How do you all relax when you're not filming?
Blythe: The boys keep me going I have to say. A couple of weeks ago I was looking in the wagon and Alex and John were talking about very in-depth things about 'ladies parts' and Alex turned around and went, "I just can't imagine what your life is like Blythe, sitting listen to us talk absolute rubbish." Sometime you do go, "What are they made of those boys?"
Alex: Sometimes I try to imagine what it would be like the other way around, if I was the only guy and everyone else was female and we were stuck in the one caravan…
Colin: They would all just fire into you of course!
Blythe, do you ever wish that you had a female cast member?
Well sometimes we get a nice female pathologist. You know I like working with the guys, they do make me laugh a lot of the time and we have a really good working relationship and we know each other's characters very well on and off screen.
Alex: You've moved from the lassie from Taggart to the women out of Taggart.
Blythe: I'll soon be the pensioner out of Taggart. It's been a lovely show to work on and it's been a big part of my life and it's afforded me a wonderful lifestyle.
When the show started, Blythe, did you think you would still be here 25 years down the line?
I started in the 15th episode and Mark was already ill and I didn't think I would get to do it at all. So I was very surprised when I finished the first one that they asked me back for more. I consider every day's a bonus day.

That flash drive that you linked would be big enough yes :)
Answer by nitrocrime · Jan 22, 2013 at 11:16 AM
I wouldn't recommend installing CS6 or any other major application on a pen drive, it would most likely take away a lot of speed because the pen drive won't be able to give it's data to your computer.. Also do you mean the entire CS6 pack or just certain applications?
just after effects and premier
Then it would take up ~7 gigs and I'd recommend a 16 Gig pen drive (probably will get really close to the 8 Gig mark and it's useful to have extra space) but I still don't recommend running it from a pen drive due to the lack of speed..
would this be big enough? http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/9093290.htm
Answer by theboredgamer · Jan 22, 2013 at 11:58 AM
like the other answer said, they are all big programs. I would say don't do it off of a pendrive, but if you have to, I'd say 8-16 gigs. I know, that may be a bit too much, but both after effects and premier are big programs.
I hope this help
is this big enough? http://www.argos.co.uk/static/Product/partNumber/9093290.htm
@theboredgamer: No personal links in the questions. Thank you.
Answer by Razor512 · Jan 24, 2013 at 04:15 PM
8-16 GB should be enough but keep in mind that it will likely run much slower than having it on a HDD. The problem with flash drives even if you have a fast one that can read at 50-80MB/s, they are unable to handle multiple request (they are optimized for single read or write at a time. (if you start 2 transfers, you will likely lose 80%+ of your overall throughput)
Photoshop is also heavily DRM filled and thus you might not be able to run it on multiple systems (defeating the purpose)
(many DRM free applications that are not heavily registry dependent will run from almost any location including flash drives, (DVD's (I have been able to simply copy the install folder of a game (DRM free ;) ) and copy it to a DVD and launch the game from DVD. I have also been able to run games and apps from network folders, flash drives, SD cards, and even over a VPN over the WAN in order to connect to a network folder and run an application remotely.
Non DRM applications are extremely flexible and can literally run from almost anything that will store them.
Apps with DRM will run checks to make sure that nothing was changed from the DRM approved install
Answer by Jackster1337 · Jan 24, 2013 at 07:35 PM
After Effects and Premiere take up 1.5GB of space for me.
But putting these programs on a USB is not a good idea.
If you thinking that these are portable apps they are not. Though there are methods of doing so.

KOLKATA: The West Bengal Government is raising a new counter-insurgency force to be based in the Salbani-Goaltore area of the Maoist-affected Paschim Medinpuir district in the State.
The State Finance Department has allotted Rs.25 crore for the setting up of the force which will be engaged mainly in anti-Maoist operations, said State Home Secretary Ardhendu Sen here on Thursday.
Initially the force will comprise 400 commandos but the strength will be increased to that of a battalion eventually, he said.
"The commandos will be trained by experts from the Border Security Force and the Central Reserve Police Force and other para-military forces and they will be ready for operation very soon", Mr Sen said.
Central para-military forces are presently engaged in joint security operations with the State Armed Police to flush out Maoists from parts of Paschim Medinipur district. The operations began in the Lalgarh area of the district last June. Security personnel have also made forays into Maoist-affected areas in neighbouring Purulia and Bankura districts in recent times.

Tumblr Users Can Make Blogs Like NYT's The Living Morgue with Elegant Themes from The Layout Shop
A new social wing of The New York Times opens with The Lively Morgue on Tumblr, boasting an elegant theme. This opens the way for other news publications to create their own collection of photos on the popular micro-blogging service using themes from The Layout Shop.
Los Angeles, CA (PRWEB) March 21, 2012
The New York Times recently launched The Living Morgue, a photo archive of historical photographs from the publication´s past onto the very popular micro-blogging service Tumblr. Selected from the newspapers physical "photo morgue," The Living Morgue collects black and white shots from different times in history presented through Tumblr´s feed. Other publications can achieve the same by using elegant and minimalist themes for Tumblr, like those found on The Layout Shop.
In a move that would have been more predictably done through publishing a coffee table book, The New York Times chose to take the digital route. The Tumblog is presented in a basic blog format yet manages to remain reverent in its design sensibilities through an elegant theme design.
This is an innovative way to make use of publication´s vast archive of news images; to both educate, inform, and even enlighten a new generation of Internet users.
This step is especially interesting seeing as the decline of newspapers and print media has been brought about by the rise of the internet and social media. Bringing The New York Times´ history into a Tumblog through its collection of iconic and legendary images is an unprecedented move among the big-time publishers.
The New York Times photo archives contains literally millions of photographs from throughout its over-150-year history. Almost all of these photos can not be found anywhere in the Internet which is a rarity.
All this may just succeed in adding considerable legitimacy to the popular micro-blogging service. The launch of The Living Morgue opens the way for other publications around the world to follow in the Times´ footsteps, particularly newspapers and magazines with long and rich histories.
With The New York Times on its corner, Tumblr is now primed to become more and more crowded with news publications and photo journalists in the coming months. The service can now only keep growing in popularity as more and more people and companies get on board the micro-blogging bandwagon.

As of Thursday, March 13, 2014
© Copyright 2015 Gwinnett Daily Post
EDITOR'S NOTE: Film Fans features local residents reviewing the movie of the week: "300: Rise of an Empire." Want to be a Film Fan? Email firstname.lastname@example.com.
3 out of 4 stars
With all of the sequels and prequels coming out of Hollywood these days, this film has a clever approach that I'll call an additional chapter, or perhaps "and now, for the rest of the story."
Building on the foundation of Zack Snyder's "300," this is the story of the battle between Greece and the Persian Empire, taken from Frank Miller's novel "Xerxes," at a time when Persia consisted of the land from Egypt, northern Greece, Iran and beyond. In "300," we watched the story of the Greek Spartans, bravely fighting against impossible odds, and a huge army led by Xerxes, emperor and self-proclaimed god of Persia. "Rise of an Empire" is the story of what was happening at the same time in the Aegean Sea where Greek warrior Themistocles, played by Sullivan Stapleton, was leading the Greek navy against Artemisia (Eva Green), who was the first and only woman to ever command the Persian navy, and her armada.
There is enough spattered blood, hacking and slashing to make both Sam Peckinpaw and Quentin Tarantino happy. They make use of the same technique as in the original to slow-mo the battle scenes to the max in order to exaggerate the drama of the violence of the battles. Extremely gory but also quite effective.
It is Eva Green, however, as Artemisia that steals the show as the vengeful, vicious and sinister commander that can hold her own in fierce battle with the biggest and best of the Greek warriors, and still be as gorgeous as ever.
Lots and lots and lots of bloody battles, if that's your thing, but the story has symmetry, heroes to cheer for and lots of villains to hate. The movie, of course, does have the obligatory open ending that strongly suggests a part three.
— Steve Kalberg, Lawrenceville
2 ½ out of 4 stars
If you liked the first "300" movie, then you will like the second one, "Rise of an Empire." There's not that much difference between the two movies. It's a war movie with a lot of ripped men with their shirts off and a whole lot of blood. The main character in this film is played by Sullivan Stapleton, who is not very convincing as an actor. The one thing that stood out the most in this film was Eva Green's character, who is the villain. Her character's back story was very interesting. As the story goes on, you understand why she is as evil as she is because of what she went through. The only downside to her character was she did the cliché evil villain thing, which was killing members of her own army. Overall, "Rise of an Empire" is not as good as the first one, but it's still enjoyable to watch.
— Brittany Wygladalski, Sugar Hill
1 1/2 out of 4 stars
Boy, I really took one for the team when I offered to review "300: Rise of an Empire."
Serving as both a prequel and a sequel to 2006's "300," "Rise of an Empire" deals mostly with the naval engagements between the Persian and Greek forces and the Battle of Salamis. The protagonist this time is the Greek general Themistocles (Sullivan Stapleton), who must find a way to win against the larger, more powerful ships under Xerxes and his commander, Artemisia (Eva Green). At first, Themistocles gains the upper hand through use of cunning tactics and deception, but soon the superior numbers and brutality of the Persians puts the Greeks to full retreat, where they must fight not only for their lives, but for the existence of Greece itself.
This flick is chock full of six-pack abs, blusterous speeches, slow-motion blood spatter and guts flying everywhere. The action scenes are quite intense and feature a pretty graphic sex scene. It's definitely not for the squeamish. Eva Green's over-the-top performance as Artemisia puts to shame Kiefer Sutherland's hambone acting in "Pompeii." In my book, "Rise of an Empire" falls about $2.50 short of "300."
— Tim Weekley, Suwanee

Fun and Durable
posted 7 years ago
This is a versatile toy that can be pulled on, chewed, on, and tugged on beween two dogs. It is very durable; we have had ours for a couple of years and it still has all of its legs intact! My two German Shepherds really enjoy a good combo game of Keep Away and Tug o' War with this Octopus. Fun toy!
Pros: Very durable, versatile, washable
Cons: NONE

Men's VIP List
Both Women's & Men's VIP List
Pharrell Williams was recently featured on Men's Health 'Steal His Style' and for good reason. Mr. Williams is not only successful in the music world but the style world, too. In case you like Pharrell's style just as much as we do, we have a piece of his outfit you can have for yourself to recreate his awesome ensembles.
Buy yourself a pair of these Red Wing Shoes 6 Inch Lug Work Boot in Briar Oil Slick to complete your Pharrell Williams look.
Bradley Cooper was pictured yet again wearing Red Wing Shoes 6 Inch Iron Ranger Boots while walking around NYC. This has probably been about the tenth time Mr. Cooper has been pictured in a pair of our favorite boots. Take notes, gentlemen.
Since Bradley has luck in the ladies department, maybe steal his style and get yourself a pair of Red Wing boots! Hey, there's no harm in trying, right? (more…)
It can be a bit tricky to dress with style if you don't exactly know what to wear with what. It's easy enough to get inspiration from all the pictures of celebrities floating around the Internet. The only problem is most of the time it's hard to tell what they are wearing or where to buy it. That's where we come in. Here are three celebrities with a cool, laid back style that is so easy to recreate. (more…)
If you don't own a pair of leather boots, then you need to highly consider the choices you've made your feet endure. Leather boots are a necessity for every guy's wardrobe. Why? They match virtually anything, last for years and are extremely functional. Our personal favorite are Red Wing boots. Find out more after the jump.

Cuban America Film Screening -- Adelin Gasana -- Gables
For the past 50 years the Cuban immigrant group has established a historical importance, political significance, and economic influence on the city region of Miami. Cubans fleeing in exile and political turmoil not only made a mark on a cosmopolitan region but an explosion. Such a historical, political, economic, social, and cultural phenomenon of the Cuban Diaspora has shifted the character of a city and placed Miami in the frontiers of international cities globally and the "Latinization" of the United States.
But how was it done? And why is it important? Cuban America, a documentary film by African-born filmmaker Adelin Gasana, explores the continuing Cuban-American story as a concentrated exile group's impact on transforming a sleepy, tourist town into a major, metropolitan community. Tonight, join us for a screening of the film, followed by a discussion with the director and some of its subjects.

Union Minister of State for Food and Public Distribution, K.V. Thomas said that State Government has been taking strong action in the incident of two guards in the Italian merchant ship who killed two Indian fishermen off Kerala coast recently.
Talking to reporters here on Wednesday, Mr. Thomas said that the Centre was fully supporting the State Government in this regard. He however denied that he had talked to newly-appointed Cardinal, Mar George Alancherry, who is now in Vatican. The Cardinal had told the Catholic news agency, Fides in Rome that he had talked to Catholic Ministers of Kerala urging the Government not to act precipitately on the issue.
Some reports have quoted Cardinal mentioning Mr. Thomas' name as a mediator with the former's talks with the State Government.

A set of photographs showing the private side of Adolf Hitler have been published for the first time. The colour pictures come from the collection of Hugo Jaeger, Hitler's personal photographer, who captured him on camera him from 1936 to the final days of his rule in 1945.
In Adolf Hitler's estimation, the Auto Union D-type was up there with the Blitzkrieg – lightning fast in the 1939 season. Now you can own it but – schnell! – at £5.5 million you'll be facing stiff Russian opposition...
Expected to fetch at least £5.5million at auction in August, this Auto Union D-type racer is one of the rarest vintage cars in the world – and one of Hitler's favourites.
Herbertus Bikker, also known as De Beul van Ommen ("The Hangman of Ommen"), died at his home in Germany last november.
Bikker was a member of the Waffen-SS. In this function he served as a guard at the prison and work camp Erika near Ommen, the Netherlands. He received his nickname due to his brutal behaviour at the prison camp.
Bikker is the alleged murderer of Dutch resistance fighter Jan Houtman who was killed, twenty-seven years old, on 17 November 1944.
Workers demolishing the wall of a building that once belonged to the former Nazi German Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp have found a message in a bottle written by prisoners 65 years ago, Auschwitz museum officials said.
"We know two of the Auschwitz prisoners who signed the message survived the camp, but their later fate isn't known," Auschwitz-Birkenau museum historian Jerzy Mensfelt told AFP in a telephone interview.
"If they are alive, they would be in their 80s now. Perhaps the publicity surrounding this discovery will lead to more information," he said.

Republican US Congressman James Lankford is visiting Altus and Altus Air Force Base today to meet with citizens, civic leaders, and AAFB leadership on current concerns, needs, and issues. After visiting places like Tusla and Lawton this week, Lankford will ask questions and listen to what is going on in Southwest Oklahoma.
"It's very, very important to me that if you're going to represent somebody that you have to know who they are and what the issues are, you can't just guess," Lankford said early this morning at a breakfast held at the Friendship Inn. "You've got to see people face to face and work on those issues together."
After serving as Congressman for the last four years, Lankford was nominate as the Republican candidate for the US Senate in June, for the upcoming election in November.
During breakfast, Lankford spoke about immigration issues, budget talks, and the upcoming Senate race. He then took questions from those who attended the breakfast.
Lankford has also said he wants to work to balance the federal budget and limit federal regulations.
"We have to allow our states to make decisions that impact the people and not allow the government to impact our future with unnecessary regulations," Lankford said.
Lankford also said he seeks to reform the nation's immigration laws and said there are areas in which both Republicans and Democrats can agree and should focus attention in those areas.
"It cannot be done in one giant bill, it has to be done one piece at a time," Lankford said.

T.V. Sankaranarayanan's vocal recital on the inaugural day of the 84th annual conference and concerts of the Music Academy was an energising and enjoyable experience. There has always been a feeling among the critics that Sankaranarayanan exerts himself vocally in his presentations with an inclination towards storming swaras.
True, but invariably these are what his rasikas expect of him and he delivers what they want. In this concert one could see a Sankaranarayanan who served his usual style of music but with an extra measure of aesthetics coupled with sobriety, without allowing the proceedings to sag.
There was another pleasing bonus; his son Mahadevan supporting TVS not just vocally but sharing TVS's forte of swaras with his young, robust and attractive vocal prowess. There was no overstepping the limits but the swara sallies shared by TVS, Mahadevan and T.K.V. Ramanujacharlu were nothing but sheer treat in Mohanam, Poorvikalyani and Charukesi.
It is superfluous to comment on the computational skills of TVS in swaras; yet, the way he shaped them on 'dhaivatam' in Mohanam in the starting number 'Gajaanana Mampalaya' by Tulasivanam gave a positive push to the concert. A short yet strong base was laid on Poorvikalyani for the not so often heard kriti of Walajapettai Venkataramana Bhagavatar 'Vadarasane Sri Guruprabhavam.' The niraval followed by swaras on 'Rama Nama Sudha Rasa Paripoorna' created greater expectations. Charukesi opened up in the Madurai Mani Iyer style of raga exposition covering many tasteful layers of raga phrases. Interspersed with spells of repose, TVS used power-packed phrases to expand the raga.
Tyagaraja's 'Aadamodi Galada' was his choice as everyone anticipated. The brief niraval pepped up by swaras in the charanam once again created the Mani Iyer's aura through his famous refrain of 'ga ma pa ma ga-ri ga sa ri ga'.
Towards the end, TVS provided a succinct Ragam-Tanam-Pallavi in Simhendramadyamam. The Pallavi 'Unathu Paadam Thunaiye Oraru Mugane' showed an emotionally charged Sankaranarayanan going for varied combinations in his niraval.
Ramanujacharlu's violin accompaniment was full of grace and poise. His replies on raga alapana and swaras in Poorvikalyani, Charukesi and Simhendramadyamam were testimonials of his musical wisdom by which he offered a perfect blend of aesthetics and emotion. It should be a pleasure for the percussionists to accompany a vocalist like TVS. B. Harikumar on the mridangam and Coimbatore V. Mohan Ram on the ghatam visibly enjoyed every moment of their support to the veteran. Their 'tani avarthanam' was precise and electrifying.
For the leisurely feel there was 'Kamalambam Sam' in Anandabhiravi by Muthuswami Dikshitar and for vigour 'Kaala Kaalan Kayilai Nathan' in Atana by Thooran.

Witness appeal after woman cyclist killed during time trial
27-year-old dies from injuries sustained when she was hit by car on A46
Warwickshire police are appealing for witnesses to come forward after a female cyclist taking part in a time trial died yesterday evening after being struck by a car.
The fatal accident took place at around 7.20pm south of the Oversley Green roundabout on the dual carriageway A46 between Oversley and Bidford and police have not as yet released the victim's name.
The 27-year old male driving the vehicle involved, a black Audi estate, was arrested on suspicion of causing death by dangerous driving and has has been released on police bail while officers continue their investigations.
Anyone with information about the fatal accident is asked to contact Senior Investigating Officer Acting Inspector 1628 Adrian Davis on 01926 415415.
A spokesperson for West Midland Ambulance Service, quoted in the Stratford-upon-Avon Herald ,said: "On arrival crews found a middle aged woman who had suffered multiple injuries. Bystanders were carrying out CPR at the scene. The ambulance staff took over and immediately commenced advanced life support. Unfortunately, despite all of the efforts it was not possible to save the woman and she was confirmed dead at the scene."
The newspaper claimed that due to the presence of other cyclists taking part in the time trial initially there was confusion about the scale of the incident, with four ambulances as well as a paramedic manager being dispatched to the scene.
Earlier this year, a driver received a 21-month prison sentence for causing death by dangerous drivingfrom Peterborough Crown Court after Major Gareth Rhys Evans was killed in May 2009 as he took part in a time trial in Cambridgeshire.
Thank God they arrested the driver. Too often these incidents are described as "an accident". Drivers need to be made aware that if you kill or injure a cyclist, there is payback.

In Shropshire you get away with a 200 hours unpaid work and an 18 month ban for killing a cyclist if you claim a "momentary lapse of attention".
You'd probably get worse for cycling on the pavement or spitting in the street... but then this is the county where the wigs considered that road cyclist Daniel Cadden was a menace to society (although sense prevailed eventually).

Thoughts go to family and friends.
I'd like to make what some will read as a contentious post.
Is it the best idea in the world to be running TTs on A roads especially dual carriage ways?
There have been a number of deaths lately on TTs.
The standard of driving and disregard for cyclists has deteriorated to such a level that for me make this a highly dangerous sport to participate in.

Bad story. I'd like to agree with Gazzaputt on the A road TT thing though. I was driving along the A14 (which is horribly busy) and a TT was being staged along both side. This is a terrible road for accidents as it is, I don't even like driving on it so to stage a TT on it is madness.
I know the road (A46) where this TT was being held and its also very busy.

I echo this, however frequently we bang on about having the right to ride on dual carriageways and a - roads etc the truth is that drivers just dont care or just dont look. I would prefer to keep doing the sodbury TT around the lanes of south gloucestershire or the Clevedon TT on the lanes of north somerset rather than try and go on an a road. I used to do a triathlon in cornwall, based at Bodmin. They said it was aimed at beginners but the ride was an out and back along the A30! Terrifying when overtaking slower athletes as we used to compete with trucks, caravans, heavy traffic.
not all carbon is the same.

While i agree that personally i wouldnt enter a TT that ran on an A road i do take part in occasiona TT's on dual carridge ways that ring road my town. These are generally quieter roads but you still get idiots not pulling out of the inside lane and nearly taking your elbow off, but lets be honest, the amount bad drivers/overtakes/incidents as a % of the cars on the road is a lot worse on B roads.
All A roads are not the same, there are section i ride on in Northumberland that are perfectly safe, and nearby B roads that are death traps. We cant stop riding on one type of road just because some are risky. If you are organising a TT you make the decision on Start times and route based on road traffic and risk. My club hosts a few races a year and sometimes the road we use is busier than we would like/expect but each competitor makes the choice to go out and we make sure sufficient signage and marshal presence is out there to keep the riders as safe as possible.
In any case i dont imagine this unfortunate accidient was a more 'dangerous situation' then any other time you get out on your bike.

I'd always support a cyclist's right to ride on the road but time trials seem to be about the most dangerous thing you can do on a bike - we frequently lose people on the A1 near where I am. It seems to me that if the b*st*rd drivers can't pay attention and share the road then the road should be closed to motor vehicles while the time trial takes place.

This is a sad occurence. But time trials should be held on roads that are more suitable for cyclists. Running these events on roads where there is fast flowing traffic increases the risk that an inattentive driver wil cause a major accident. I feel sorry for the victim's family.

A young driver in his mid twenties driving what sounds like a powerful car. Just guessing here, but he may not have ridden a bike for a few years (since passing his driving test) and years of fiddling with buttons on a game console may have blurred his perception of reality - at least as far as the difference in speed between himself and the unfortunate victim.
I regularly ride a TT on a local dual carriageway - in my experience drivers generally have room to overtake safely and do so. The roundabouts on the course I ride are quite "tight", i.e. vehicles slow down to 20 - 25 mph to negociate them and if anything impede the progress of cyclists by doing so.
It's the vehicles entering roundabouts from the side roads which cause the problems ...

He is 27, which means he could have been driving for up to 10 years. Also, not all black Audi estates are uber-powerful quattros so please don't jump to conclusions.
We will have to wait and see what they decide to prosecute him with, if anything, and then hope that commonsense and rationality will prevail.
In the meantime, in the spirit of increasing cycling participation and competition, maybe we should petition for a change in the law that allows for the speed limits on roads being legally used for TTs to be temporarily reduced.

Most kids beg their parents for a pet because they're cute and fun, but youngsters don't always consider the larger implications of pet ownership. If you make sure your child knows how much work it'll take, bringing an animal into your home is a great way to teach kids a number of life lessons.
Share this on Facebook?
A pet is a great way to teach your kids how to be responsible for another living thing. However, not all children will be able to handle the level of responsibility that a dog or cat might require. If you have younger children, say under the age of four, start with a pet that is low maintenance, like a hamster. Teach your child how to take care of these pets and assign them a task to complete. With older children, it is important to talk about what is required of them before getting a dog or cat. Pets are a full-time job and need to be fed, exercised and cared for every day, regardless of whether your child is tired or not. You don't want to end up having to care for the pet because it was too much for your child to handle.
One of the best lessons a pet can teach a child is how to be compassionate toward other living beings. Kids learn how to be gentle and understanding with animals, and those lessons can transfer to their relationships with other people. Children also learn the importance of making sure an animal has its basic needs met — like water, food, shelter and companionship.
Unfortunately, pets don't live as long as humans, so your child will learn what it means to lose a friend and loved one. While there is no way to shield your kids from the pain this causes, it teaches them how to cope and get through a bereavement period. It is best to be honest with your child about the pet's passing, but keep in mind that younger children may be more sensitive and not have a firm grasp on what death actually is. Help your child learn that it is OK to feel sad and to cry about the loss, and be there to listen and answer any questions they have about their friend's passing.
An important lesson that a pet teaches a young child is how to have respect for others. Start early by teaching your child when it is appropriate to touch and play with the pet and when it is not. For instance, teach your child not to touch the dog while it is eating or sleeping so that there are a couple of ground rules from the start. When the child gets older he or she then learns how to properly hug and handle the family pet. Also, telling your child the difference between the family pet and a strange pet can teach them social boundaries and keep them safe.
Believe it or not, a pet can boost your child's self-esteem. Having responsibility and taking care of another living thing gives kids a sense of meaning and importance. Also, a pet is a non-judgmental friend that shows your child unconditional love. If your kid is a shy reader, he or she can practice reading to the family pet to boost his or her confidence. Involve your child in important decisions for the pet and let the child have a say. This teaches youngsters that their opinion matters.
The relationship between a pet and its human is all about loyalty. Pets give unconditional love and do not care if their human is smelly, disorganized or bad at math. A pet teaches your child the importance of being loyal to the ones you love and those who depend on you.
These days, many kids are content to just sit on the couch and play video games, but introduce a dog into the house and all of a sudden your kids are bound to get some exercise. But the best part is that tug-of-war and fetch feels more like a fun activity than simply exercise. A 2010 study in the American Journal of Public Health found that, "Children from dog-owning families spent more time in light or moderate to vigorous physical activity and recorded higher levels of activity counts per minute ... than did children without dogs."
Patience is a virtue, especially when it comes to bringing a new pet into the home. In the case of a dog or cat, your child needs to learn how to be patient during training as the pet is becoming comfortable with its new home. Training a dog can often take months, so learning to understand this helps to teach your child the importance of patience.
Next: Best Dog Breeds for Families
Taking the family dog on daily walks gets your child out in the world and interacting with other people. Scientists are even using pets to help with therapy for autistic children. A recent French study suggests that introducing a pet to an autistic child around the age of five can help the child learn how to better share their toys and food.

There are some pictures of children and animals and some of the animals aren't displaying ease in the situation. Wonder why children get bit in the face? Wanna know why children get more dog bites than young adults or adults? Because they behave inappropriately with animals.
The stupid parents of the kid laying down on top of the elderly Lab are displaying cruelty to animals. Why don't you go check out signs of an unhappy dog before posting this crap?
http://4pawsu.com/stresssigns.html Go see that and you won't need to explain to parents why their kid was bit in the face and lost a nose, ear or eye. Good luck with that. Duh.
The responsibility for an animal's care should always be on the parents' shoulders, NOT the kid's! If you buy a pet for your kid, be prepared to take over all of its care: eventually the novelty will wear off and the kid won't necessarily want to walk the dog or clean the hamster's cage anymore. If you, the parent, don't want to look after the animal? Don't get a pet!August 10 2014 at 8:57 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down Reply

Welcome to Newcomers!
My name is Steve Cleere, but I ask my students to call me Mr. C.
Most of our class needs a great deal of help with one or more areas of English use and comprehension. Most newcomers are new in the U.S., but many have been in the country for two or more years without significant advancement that leads to passing the English portion of the STAAR Test, the state's assessment for basic understanding at each grade level.
In the newcomer class, we study listening, reading, writing and speaking every day to bring students closer to success in passing their tests toward graduation. Everyone has a different need, and each of these is addressed individually in a workshop setting.
I am a Spanish speaker and learner, and I am able to teach Hispanic children much more quickly than other students from around the world, but there are many materials in the classroom to help me overcome the language barrier that often makes English acquisition a challenge.
We have students from Nepal, Iraq, Thailand, Iran, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Vietnam, Mexico and Colombia.

I do understand that there is a credibility concern with the 'do as i say and not as i do' approach, but again... there are some extremely good teachers out there that dont actually practice, for whatever reason.
If it would help, i definitely do look fit, am pretty strong, i can do pretty much all the exercises with good form, and i know my stuff. I'm just not in a position to actually train like that right now, or in the forseeable future... though i have been thinking about this venture for a while now. I am a very good coach, if that helps, and have been personal training/strength coaching for years now. I have also spent a good deal ov time at the local Crossfit, and was able to learn a lot about the business and whats involved with it in that time.

"Mr. Bush isn't out of the economic woods yet. For voters, jobs and income matter far more than GDP statistics — and by those measures, the president's record is still weak. The unemployment rate remains near a nine-year high, and even during the third-quarter boom, the economy shed 41,000 jobs."
"What's unclear — and what matters most for Mr. Bush and his would-be Democratic challengers — is just how much households are benefiting from the economic spurt. Individuals are certainly spending as if they are better off. Purchases of durable goods, such as automobiles and furniture, grew at a blistering 27% annual rate in the third quarter."
Paper of Record-er Dick Stevenson writes it's all about the J-O-B-S. "Strategists in both parties said specific month-by-month unemployment and job creation figures would be less important in political terms than the trend in employment over the next year. If the economy shows steady job growth as the presidential campaign heats up, they said, Mr. Bush will be less vulnerable to Democratic attacks even if the job gains between now and Election Day do not offset those already lost. LINK
Deborah Orin of the New York Post analyzes the 7.2% annual growth rate and surmises the political ramifications thusly: LINK
"Still, the very different reactions to yesterday's good news underscore that Bush's campaign relies on optimism while his Democratic challengers are stuck hoping for gloom and doom."
The Washington Post 's John Berry and Mike Allen write, "The report was a major political boost for President Bush." LINK
After yesterday's report of the sizzling — or was it blistering? — economy, the Wall Street Journal editorial board does the "I told you so" dance about the Bush tax cuts.
So do others.
USA Today 's Susan Page and Judy Keen report, "President Bush said Thursday that startling economic growth in the third quarter of the year is vindication for his tax cuts. His advisers said they hope it's a sign that hiring will pick up soon." LINK
The Washington Post 's Dana Milbank has the president asserting the success of his tax cuts. LINK
The Boston Globe 's Anne Kornblut reports, "Democratic candidates for president quickly dismissed yesterday's news as irrelevant." LINK
And how about that "Breaking News" e-mail yesterday from firstname.lastname@example.com that ticked off the "signs" pointing to a "strong recovery," the first of which was Notably, "The economy is adding new jobs." The Note also found it interesting that after all the economic news in the e-mail, readers were encouraged to "DONATE NOW!"
In looking at the economic numbers yesterday, we quoted ABC News' Ramona Schindleheim. Of course, we meant Ramona Schindelheim. The Note regrets the error and will deny itself all Snickers for the next 72 hours in pertinence.
ABC News Vote 2003: Kentucky, Mississippi, and Philadelphia: The Washington Post 's Edward Walsh profiles the Kentucky gubernatorial candidates, with a downbeat tone for the Dems. LINK
The Los Angeles Times spotlights the Bluegrass State's gubernatorial contest as a bellwether for 2004. LINK
Ernie Fletcher was touting Thursday's good economic news, while Ben Chandler was wooing labor and asserting that despite the good economic indicators, we are in a "jobless recovery." LINK

Etched Terrain in Terra Meridiani
October 12, 2009
Eroded, or "etched" terrain dominates the field of view of this THEMIS visible image acquired over eastern Terra Meridiani. At the bottom of many craters and in other areas, dunes are present. On the left hand side of the image, a darker layer embays the etched terrain. Several knobs from the etched terrain can still be seen, though, indicating that this layer is rather thin.
