Project Gotham Racing
Score: 9.0 / 10
XBox drivers start your engines! From the
pole position of the XBox's launch, Microsoft has provided a worthy
adversary to rival Sony and its PlayStation's Gran Turismo series with
Project Gotham Racing (PGR). The only question left to answer is if PGR
has enough gameplay fuel to take the checkered flag from GT3: A-Spec.
360ing, two-wheel driving, deftly maneuvering through cone-filled routes and overtaking any cars in front of you en route to the finish line. The control scheme of PGR is well-devised in regards to the XBox controller's layout, which is important because learning to drive through the game's multitude of roadways while at the same time collecting enough kudos to move
on to the next challenge takes quite a bit
of getting used to. While tighter than its predecessor, PGR's control is
the hardest game element to master. Each car handles differently,
especially the Ferraris and Porsches that make up the upper echelon of
the game's available automobiles. Try and find a good car with a decent
balance of handling, speed and acceleration and stick with it until you
unlock the game's best vehicle, the Ferrari F50. Once you have access to
it, use it and learn its nuances, because the best way to cruise up the
medals and kudos charts is with the F50 under your guidance.

This month's Top Gear magazine celebrates the strange, odd, and curious cars that somehow capture our imagination, and mark themselves indelibly on the motoring landscape. Cars with... soul.
Jeremy Clarkson kicks off proceedings with the Lexus LFA, a car with an insane £360k price tag, and plenty of irritating nuances. But despite the pitfalls, Jeremy describes it as "the greatest car I've ever driven".
We've also got our hands on a new incarnation of an old soulful legend, the Corvette Stingray. In recent years, Corvette has done a lot to challenge US car stereotypes and has started to take the fight to the Europeans. This incarnation brings back the iconic Stingray, but are we ready for America's next top model?
But it's not all fire-breathing super stuff - cars with soul come in all sizes. For urbanites looking to convey their charismatic side, the Fiat 500 has been the city car of choice for a number of years. But Vauxhall's now looking to get in on the act with the new Adam. We put them head-to-head to find out which will emerge as the metrosexual market-leader.
A celebration of soul wouldn't be complete without taking the time to appreciate some old heroes. We say a teary goodbye to the Subaru Impreza Turbo (long live the king!), and Richard Hammond drives the ultimate hot hatch, the Renault Clio Williams.
We also meet the team behind the Bloodhound, the world's fastest car. Getting behind the wheel of this incredible machine will require soul in abundance. And colossal manparts...
Read all this and much more, only in the February issue of Top Gear magazine - out now!
Also this month...
Valentino Rossi
The greatest, gobbiest biker in the world talks frankly to Top Gear. After dominating for so many years, he's hit a rough patch. So will he make the move to four wheels? (Please?)
Lap of England
We travel 2,248 miles in search of the best 250 miles of road in England. Who says you need to go abroad for exciting driving adventures.
Record Breakers
Once again, we find time to break some records, not perhaps any you've heard of (One Mile Flying Start?), but records nonetheless.
The Hottest Reviews
In addition, we still found the time to review some of the best new cars on the market, including the Aston Martin DB9, Lexus LS, Audi RS5, BMW M5, Khan LR Defender, Porsche Panamera Sport Turismo, Lamborghini Gallardo, Mercedes SLS GT3.... plus the last word in US law enforcement with the new (and very RoboCop-esque) Ford Police Interceptors.
Get all this, plus the usual thoughts from Clarkson, Hammond and May, only in the new issue of Top Gear magazine - out now.
Make sure you never miss an issue: take out a Top Gear subscription today!

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'Barents Sea' tag.
Here was the first post by this title. I've been back for a few days, but it's been hard to transition from my jaunt in Utah areas of wilderness back to the densely settled areas in and around the sixth boro of NYC. I didn't take the foto below of Binghamton, but her time is clearly running out. If you notice human/mechanical demolition (as opposed to destruction by natural erosion . . . as in the desert) happening, please get in touch or send me fotos? This was taken Friday during the rain by Allan and Sally, whose sweet vessel you'll see later. I did three posts early October 2011 about Binghamton, then ravaged by Hurricane Irene.
I caught this foto of Miller Boys yesterday when it seemed the winds were blowing more rain in.
Ellen McAllister was moving this "unmarked" McAllister tug (anyone recognize it?) around the yard. Info follows, thanks to Birk Thomas. That's Cashman's Lynx in the background.
Also in Mariner's Harbor, it's Mark McAllister, not typically a sixth boro boat.
And slightly west, lined up from left to right are Barents Sea, Yankee, NaHoku, and Taurus.
Potomac stands off with Lower Manhattan in the background after an assist.
Over in North Cove, expedition yacht Copasetic costs more than twice any of the tugs appearing in this post; that bow is inspired by much larger ships.
And finally, my host vessel for a jaunt and great conversation . . . the Lord Nelson Victory tug Sally W, operated by
Allan and Sally, who've kept this blog during their recent jaunt up to Ottawa. By the way, has anyone seen Chase, the long distance padleboarder?
Binghamton fotos by Sally. All others by Will Van Dorp.
In case you were not able (like me) to identify the tug alongside Ellen McAllister, it's none other than Winslow C. Kelsey.
Although I noticed no harbingers of snowy December when I stopped briefly at the KVK this morning, my eyes were drawn beyond the barge and tug in the foreground. My attention went right past what I believe is Greenland Sea to the vessel in midstream. Could
it possibly be . . . Barents Sea? It's been ages since I saw it move, and judging by
the carbon coming from the stacks, it may very well have been ages since it last ran? And what might be in the works?
As I followed Barents back toward Mariners Harbor, I noticed another surprise . . . movement up on my favorite bridge.
Routine inspection? Preliminaries to modification?
Who knows answers to any of these . . . I don't.
All fotos by Will Van Dorp. Click here for a foto of Barents Sea and Atlantic Salvor in earlier lifetimes. Atlantic Salvor appears to be keeping Ken Boothe company.

Introducing the all new upgraded Vamo V6 20W. The variable wattage digital mod maintains the infamous Vamo V5 design with improvements that utilize key significance allowing to extend the unit in continuing to be a favorite. The first issue that has been improved is the connection pin. In previous generations, the 510 connection pin had some issues and went through changes until finally deciding on using a silver plated contact pin screw that can be adjusted using a flat head screwdriver. This will allow a wide range of atomizers to be used that may have various lengths. The second update is the battery spring located on the bottom cap, which is now silver plated as well for better conducitivity. The Vamo V6 still maintains the extended tube for using a single 18650, 2 x 18350 or one 18350. With the improvement of the chip, it is strongly recommended to use higher amperage batteries to support higher amperage/lower resistance coils . The chip has some great novelty features as well. The OLED display screen can display volts, watts, puff count, atomizer resistance, output current and vaping time. Finally, another great feature is the ability to attach a USB adaptor that will allow you to charge USB related devices (adaptor sold separately).

Jonathan Gold Quiz: A tale of two cities that participated in a recent athletics competition
A World Series-related food quiz? No, not this one. We had some perfectly good questions about San Francisco and Detroit lying around, that's all; two perfectly good cities with interesting food and great starting pitchers – except for Detroit, apparently, but that's a matter for the sports desk. So anyway, the quiz. Which may or may not have anything in it about the roast peanut guys outside Comerica Park. Or crabs. Won't you give it a try?

6:30 PM EDT, September 24, 2012
Jonathan Gold quiz: Test your knowledge of food and Islam
In the spirit of disclosure, it must be confessed that the author of this quiz has occasionally been unkind on the subject of dietary restrictions, perhaps as a result of exposure to more than his share of Tofurkey sausage pizza and gluten-free bakery treats. Yet when an invitation to a halal meal is broached, dishes prepared according to precepts of Islamic dietary law, the anticipation becomes nothing but joy. The cuisines of the Islamic world are as varied and delicious as any on Earth, as different in their flavor as Beirut is from Java. Is Islamic cooking unknowable? Try this quiz and decide for yourself.

Maun man, Onkagetse Ofetotse, aka Phongo says his movie and music career in South Africa continues to soar despite his partying ways with the man who introduced him to the game two years ago.
Phongo came into the limelight through hilarious Tswana comedy series, Radijo, starring as a friend of that food-loving entertainer in the series, Radijo, Radikgang Madiane.
That was two years ago, when Radijo's comedy series literally took the South African and local market by storm with their well-researched Tswana jokes based mainly on popular Tswana humorous stories.
The 26-year-old man from Maun tells Showbiz that his solo comedy, Phongo is alive, released after a series of comedies by Radijo announcing that Phongo is Dead, continues to do well in the market.
"It has since sold well over 35,000 copies both in South Africa, where I am based, and in Botswana," he said in an exclusive interview during one of his errands to Gaborone.
Phongo says his debut solo comedy release was actually an effort to clear the air following a series of film releases by Radijo proclaiming that Phongo is dead. 'After I parting ways with Radijo for business reasons, he released a movie titled, Leso la ga Phongo (Phongo is dead), in Radijo Vol.2. He followed that up with Phitlho ya ga Phongo, Radijo Vol.3
The youngster, who describes himself as a hard worker, says his Phongo is alive did cause Radijo to re-think his strategy. " It was only after I made my movie that Radijo added an episode in which Phongo comes to life," he says.
Phongo's debut movie also happened to have a go at Radijo. In one of the scenes, Phongo and his friend Rahonga visit their mutual mate, Radijo at his shanty home, where they do not find him. "The sign at Radijo's house reads, "Radijo relocated to America" as both characters remain alone for the whole day, stealing the show in what used to be Radijo's home. They even unlock Radijo's hut, possibly to loot the guy.
Interestingly though, Phongo is Alive was released by the same company which introduced Radijo to the South African market, Sunshine Records. But he later left the same company also claiming a raw deal. "Ke jele sengwe (I got a cut), but I did not receive royalties for copies,which were distributed in countries like Mozambique, Lesotho, and Zimbabwe. We are no longer there (Sunshine Records), we quit, we were unhappy," he says.
Phongo claims fans have been calling him in Mozambique requesting him to add Portuguese subtitles into the funny movie.
Phongo describes himself as a survivor who refused to give in to failure even when he failed his Junior Secondary Education. A traditional music dancer by trade, Phongo says he joined Radijo's Letlhomela Cultural Group with a number of his homeboys, for the release of their first comedy, Radijo, which was shot and produced by a local producer, before Radijo licenced it to a South African company under controversial circumstances.
Phongo, thanks to Radijo's connections in South Africa, especially in Pretoria, moved to that country with his fellow dancers and singers in an effort to trade in traditional music, which is fast becoming popular in that country. After falling out with Radijo over money related issues, Phongo says he formed Ditswammung Cultural Troupe with other disgruntled dancers and actors, who included a character known as "Rahonga", and other characters who starred in Radijo's early releases. The group is made up of six Botswana citizens all formerly with Radijo. They include Phongo, Rahonga (Morulaganyi Garebamono), Sakuru (Kikagetse Mombala), Black Dog (Siane Hetu), and the woman who acts as Phongo's wife or Maphongo (Onameditse Baleseng)
It is through this Ditswammung Traditional Troupe that Phongo released his debut comedy last year.
"Phongo is Alive," has changed my life a great deal. Now I have managed to open my own recording studio, I bought a car, and I run a taxi business. I think it has changed a lot of things about me... I'm a famous actor, especially in the North West and Limpopo regions; my movies and music sell well there," he said.
Phongo's latest comedy release, Bad Day in Town, released hardly three months ago, is fused with afro-pop music as the talented actor attempts to take his music and film career to another level.
He has also released the music separately on a CD performed by Phongo & Maromente Crew. The CD is mostly wedding songs.
According to Phongo his latest DVD release sold 6000 copies in its first two weeks in South Africa, while 1000 DVDs were sold cash in Botswana during the same time.
Phongo says he distributes his own products through a distribution arm, Ketantshang Music Production.
"It has been a good story worth telling so far, since I moved to South Africa in 2006 with Radijo, specifically to settle there and work with Sunshine Records, although I'm no longer with the company.
Meanwhile Phongo has announced he is busy shooting the second installation of his Phongo is Alive, which will be on DVD by end of this month. The movie is being short at a location in Maun, his hometown.

Medical Assisting listed 4th in 'Best Jobs of 2012'
Medical assistants keep offices running efficiently by handling administrative, clinical and laboratory duties in doctors' offices or large medical centers. Graduates of Ellsworth Community College's Medical Assisting program put their knowledge to work across the country in a wide variety of positions.
Bernadine Peacock graduated from the ECC Medical Assisting program in 2012. As a non-traditional student, Bernadine came to ECC with a bachelor's degree in communication and marketing and years of experience as a physician recruiter in a big city.
"I needed to find a career more appropriate for rural Iowa so talked to the ECC counselor," says Bernadine. "With my medical administration background, medical assisting was suggested. During the first two weeks of classes I knew Dee (Lynk) and Lori Ubben were the best instructors I'd ever had and ECC would be a great educational experience. They were reassuring and supportive, and I realized during my externships that the program prepared me very well."
Although Bernadine's plans to work in rural Iowa were changed by her former husband's serious illness, her medical assisting training was meant to be. She moved to Wilmington, NC, where she now cares for his medical needs related to emphysema and COPD and monitors his medications and oxygen levels. Once he is stabilized, she plans to work as a medical assistant during the day.
October 15-19 is Medical Assistants Week. Medical assisting is an allied health profession whose practitioners function as members of the health care delivery team, performing administrative and clinical procedures. With their unique versatility, medical assistants are proving to be the allied health professional of choice for this era. In fact, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects medical assisting jobs will grow 31 percent from 2012 to 2025, making it one of the fastest growing occupations.
Students and graduates of the ECC Medical Assisting program are supporting evidence of the statistics given in U.S. News and World Report's article, "The Best Jobs of 2012." The criteria for best job included availability of jobs, good pay, projected growth of the field, job satisfaction, and professional fulfillment.
"Healthcare has become the core industry in this country, just like manufacturing in another era," said John Challenger in the article.
Dee Lynk, CMA (AAMA) AC, ST, AGS, Professor of Medical Assisting, coordinates the Medical Assisting program. The one-year diploma program includes instruction in basic anatomy and physiology, medical terminology, medical law ethics, patient psychology and communications, medical office procedures, clinical diagnosis, examination testing, and treatment procedures.
Celebrate the medical assistants in your life this week!
To explore medical assisting as your next career, contact Dee Lynk at 641-648-8654, or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

Having installed SQL Server 2012 and Sharepoint, I'm now ready to install TFS itself. And let me tell you, compared to the early days of installing TFS 2005, the installation process is really nice!
Select the installation location, and accept the licensing terms.
It starts copying some files down.
Installs KB2828152 and requires me to reboot.
After the reboot it picks back up where it left off.
Once the reboot is finished, the Team Foundation Server Configuration Center opens. My installation is a Standard Single Server installation, I select that, and then click the Start Wizard button.
Click Next.
Enter my TFS Service Account information
Review my information
I passed all the readiness checks. So onto the Configuration.
The configuration runs….
And was apparently successful!
Everything looks good, so I can close the configuration wizard.
I've got nothing else to configure, so I can close the configuration center.
Everything looks good in the TFS Administrator Console.
Next, I installed Visual Studio 2013 Ultimate Preview
Check out the cool new look in Team Explorer!

AFTER months of wrangling, the US has abandoned controversial plans to research nuclear "bunker busters". The Bush administration had been eager to study such weapons, designed to penetrate deep into the ground and detonate a nuclear warhead.
Proponents of the Robust Nuclear Earth Penetrator (RNEP) said it would allow US forces to destroy buried weapons dumps and communication centres. They also argued that underground nuclear explosions would produce less fallout than surface or airborne ones. But critics of the project said it would be hard to devise a weapon that would burrow far enough to contain the nuclear explosion.
Now the National Nuclear Security Administration, responsible for developing and maintaining US nuclear stockpiles, has asked for the RNEP project to be scrapped, and on 26 October the Bush administration decided to stop funding it.
"I am relieved that the administration has abandoned this irresponsible and dangerous path," says representative Ellen ...

Publication: Clever new publication from The Times champions its own contributors
I'm an unashamed geek when it comes to journalism (my favourite Twitter feed is easily the Guardian Style Guide for goodness sake) so this new publication from The Times is right up my street. Byline is a quarterly magazine for the newspaper's subscribers which provides "an exclusive insight into the news-gathering process."
It's been designed by Steve Fenn and Tom Pollard's Design By St studio, who were briefed to produce something "bold, warm, fresh and different to the usual communication expected by members but to retain a sense of Times style."
They explained: "We started by working with a printer to devise a format and source a quality tactile paper. We then settled on a typographic palette within Times style that differed to their other publications and injected elegance and personality in equal measure. We commissioned witty illustration to add pace, warmth and variation and a cover portrait to add to the exclusivity, rather than working from the Times library of images."
The resulting magazine is really impressive in quite an understated way; the content is great (although I would say that) and the design is nicely assured.

Thessaloniki Mayor Yiannis Boutaris sought to strike a diplomatic tone on Tuesday following controversial statements by a leading Orthodox cleric regarding the citys upcoming gay pride festival.
We see eye to eye on many issues with the bishop and we have a very good cooperation. On other issues, we just dont share the same view and we dont cooperate, the recently re-elected Boutaris said of Thessaloniki Bishop Anthimos.
Speaking of the Thessaloniki Pride event, which takes place on Friday and Saturday, Anthimos described homosexuality as a perversion of the human existence and attacked the annual festival as a disgrace.
Do not give dogs what is holy, he said quoting the gospel of Matthew.

Need some enclosure design help....
1 Attachment(s)
I know many of you have had constuction experience and for those who have built an enclosure around your oven using metal studs...you know the capabilites and limitations.
I've attached a drawing (sorry, my artistic skills are lacking) of where I'm currently at. The red line is an existing metal stud.
My question is if anyone has any idea on how to go about rounding off the back side of the roof? I measured the header beam so that if I attach an agnled truss suport directly off the end of it to the top middle of the cureved wall, the distance is exactly the same as the rest of the trusses, so the anngle should be perfect. However, for the roof to look right (i picture half of a pointed roof like you see on a castle) I need to attach 5 or 6 trusses to the back. How can I attach them all to the same point on the end of the header beam??? By the way, the header beam, vertical support and the support beam spanning between the block walls are all metal studs, but I screwed 2 of them together to add more strength.
Any ideas?
Re: Need some enclosure design help....
Looks like your enclosure is entering the world of TRON :)
Re: Need some enclosure design help....
Nice pic. I think I see where you are going with this. I'll think about it.
Re: Need some enclosure design help....
1 Attachment(s)
The diagram on the left is what I perceive as your problem: too many steel studs coming together at the same spot.
My idea on the right is to have studs 1, 3 and 5 coming to the "apex" and being screwed in. You'll need to do some trimming and bending of the ends to make it work.
Studs 2 and 4 stop short of the apex. A tab is bent on one side of each and secured to studs 1 and 5.
The gray studs are additional reinforcements to firm the whole thing up. You can add more reinforcements if you wiggle stuff around and think you need them.
Am I on the right track?? (if this doesn't work, I can use the same diagram to design an old Crosley radio :))
Re: Need some enclosure design help....
How 'bout something like this:
Re: Need some enclosure design help....
Breven, What's your final roofing surface going to be? That will help determine how it needs to be supported. Are you going for a cone shape (OK half cone) that is smooth or one that consists of many facets? Most cone topped towers end in a metal finial that takes care of the problems at the apex (read that "hides and makes water tight"). That's because most old time (you mentioned castles) were roofed in tile or stone (slate being preferred) later they had the ability to make large metal sheets (and the roofers still haven't sobered up from celebrating :-) Still those old time guys had something going for them that you won't... their creation would be viewed from a fair distance off... like on the ground looking up 75 or 100 ft.. Your creation will be viewed up close.
If you are going with metal and want help with the finial I have a copy of " "Essentials of Sheet Metal Work and Pattern Drafting" by Daughtery that has the "how to" of laying out the pattern. Your local library may have a copy but I doubt it as copyright is 1918. It's so far out of copyright I have no problem with scanning and sending along the pertinent pages. No math, it's all geometry, dividers and a ruler, just like the builders of the cathedrals.
Re: Need some enclosure design help....
Uhmmm... Dmun, did you forget to attach? ;)
Re: Need some enclosure design help....
I did a quick search of Google regarding the book I mentioned. Seems I'm not the only one impressed with the work. The entire book is online at:
Essentials of Sheet Metal Work and ... - Google Book Search
Re: Need some enclosure design help....
Let's try another view of the same round back roof:
Re: Need some enclosure design help....
Dmun...nice pic. That's exactly what I have pictured in my head, only this one is a little nicer. Ken thanks for your advice- I think you and I were on the same page here. The big problem is that in order to keep the round shape on the top of the roof I wanted to put as many trusses as possible coming from the apex. The roof on that castle is perfectly smooth all the way around, no flat spots. The more trusses I can fit in there, the less flat spots I'll have. I managed to fit 8 in! I think it came out pretty good....for some reason the pics are too big to attach...go here instead:

Toronto Star
"McGuinty's historic hat trick"
A Toronto Star editorial praised Dalton McGuinty on becoming the first Ontario Liberal leader in more than 100 years to win three consecutive governments. According to the Star "McGuinty was the only leader [during the election] to demonstrate an understanding that to succeed in a global economy Ontario must adapt and try new things." The Star argued that McGuinty's minority government should focus on eliminating the deficit, cutting costs and improving public services.
Toronto Sun
"What's McGuinty's Next Move?"
Christina Blizzard, columnist for the Toronto Sun, analyzed what the election results mean for the three major party leaders. She was skeptical that the Ontario Liberals can govern humbly based on McGuinty's election night comment that voters gave him a "major minority." Blizzard wondered if the PCs could resist the urge to fire their leader Tim Hudak. According to Blizzard, Ontario NDP leader Andrea Horwath did "remarkably well" in the election, but she needs to become stronger on policy.
The Globe and Mail
Tim Powers, vice president of Summa Strategies and a former federal Progressive Conservative staffer, advised the Ontario PCs not to dump their leader, Tim Hudak, and his election team after the Liberals won a minority government last week. Powers said that the PCs must acknowledge their successes in the election (despite not forming the government), as well as Dalton McGuinty's strong campaigning abilities.
Toronto Star
Robin Sears, a former NDP campaign director, provided an evaluation of the major political parties' efforts in the Ontario election campaign. He argued that the Ontario PCs ran a disastrous election campaign, which snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. However, Sears also thought McGuinty's "insensitivity and false humility sent many voters further left [to the NDP] and kept many others at home." On the NDP, Sears conceded that the party's platform had some weak planks, but that Horwath "took a page from Ronald Reagan's book and smiled her way to success."
London Free Press
"Voter turnout disturbingly low"
Ian Gillespie, columnist with the London Free Press, examined the low voter turnout in the Ontario election (less than 50 per cent of eligible voters cast a ballot last Thursday). He provided some possible explanations for the poor voter turnout including election fatigue, a dull campaign and general declining voter turnout throughout the Western world. Gillespie paraphrased Laura Stephenson, co-director of the Political Behaviour Research Group at the University of Western Ontario, who argues that citizens must be convinced that it's their duty to vote – not just their right. However, Gillespie doesn't think this strategy will work, since people are more interested in the singer Justin Bieber than politics.

Ontario, CA (PRWEB) February 19, 2014
Tickets to the popular Huck Finn Jubilee go on sale at 4 p.m. today.
Hotel packages with tickets included are available to everyone, with camping reservations open to the public on Feb. 27. Members of the Southwest Bluegrass Association will be given first access to the "Jammers' Campground," where bluegrass enthusiasts from far and wide gather to sit together and jam well into the night. The SWBA will send its members a special pre-sale code to be used for early signups.
Early bird tickets to the campground go on sale to the public Feb. 27 and may be purchased online at http://www.huckfinn.com or by calling 888-718-4253. Hotel packages including lodging and admission tickets are available now, starting as low as $99 per day.
The Huck Finn Jubilee takes place June 13-15 at Cucamonga-Guasti Regional Park in Ontario, California, with onsite camping available beginning June 11.
RV and tent camping will be limited this year. The "orange" campground used last year is under renovation for next year's event and will be unavailable in 2014, so spaces will be limited and there will be dry camping only (no electricity, no hookups). Regular pricing takes effect April 1.
Pricing for both early bird and SWBA members is as follows:
Huck Finn Jubilee is an annual three-day celebration featuring headliner bluegrass and country-themed performances, old time activities and contests, a jammer's campground, fishing, camping, raft-building, living history displays and more. Held every Father's Day weekend in Ontario, Calif., it is billed as one of the largest bluegrass festivals of its kind west of the Mississippi, drawing visitors from throughout the United States.
This year's early lineup includes The Del McCoury Band, Rhonda Vincent and Junior Sisk & Rambler's Choice, with other top performers to be announced soon.
Junior Sisk & Ramblers Choice, awarded "Best Bluegrass Band" by the Society for the Preservation of Bluegrass Music in America (SPBGMA), is touted as one of the nation's most authentic bluegrass groups. The Del McCoury Band took home its second Grammy Award this year for best bluegrass album with "Streets of Baltimore," a tribute to the city where McCoury got his start working for a stint with the father of bluegrass, Bill Monroe. And Vincent, dubbed the "New Queen of Bluegrass" by the Wall Street Journal, recently released "Only Me," a two-disc combo of both bluegrass and country. Known for her progressive chord structures and multi-range vocals, she has worked closely with many in the industry, including Dolly Parton, and Alison Krause.

Municipalities need to accelerate the delivery of serviced land and government needs to embrace the role of property developers, including the National Housing Enterprise (NHE) and Build Together programme, as well as banks.
This could alleviate the housing backlog by providing appropriate support to local authorities.
This is the opinion of Nanyemba Katamba, a real estate agent and University of Namibia (Unam) graduate, who has published a book titled: "Climbing the Property Investment Ladder in Namibia."
Katamba says he decided to write the book after realising there is hardly any relevant information available on property investment published by Namibians for the general public.
"I therefore see this book as an educational resource or guide for those who want to venture into property investment," explained Katamba, who once lost a house due to a default judgement but bounced back to now own numerous properties.
The first time author says the book is meant for everyone, particularly young professionals, property enthusiasts, current and would-be homeowners, existing and future property developers, and students. "The idea is for these groups to share their experiences and successes in the area of property investment," he said.
The 113-page book is divided into seven very useful chapters. The first chapter focuses on Katamba's first-hand experience in buying property while chapter two looks at the functions of property, property cycles, the importance of financial planning and budgeting, and the nine steps in property investments.
The remaining chapters highlight strategies to increase the value of property, the role of various professionals, property prices and where to invest in Namibia. "The book is not trying to be prescriptive but rather to create an opportunity for readers to expand their knowledge and hopefully apply it when making long-term financial decisions and venturing into property investment," explained Katamba.
He says reading the book should make people realize that the family home is an investment, though by default. This means it (the family home) was most likely purchased as shelter for the family but can be a great investment if well taken care of and maintained.
"My good friend once told me, 'it's not what you know, but rather what you don't know that keeps you backward.' I hope this book will serve as an eye-opener to Namibians and help them optimize the benefits they can derive from investing in the property market," explained Katamba.
According to Katamba, the biggest challenge in the Namibian property market today has to do with the fact that demand and supply are not in equilibrium.
"This means you have an ever-increasing high demand for low and middle income categories and a very low supply, resulting in abnormal price increases," he said. The availability of serviced land, he said, remains critically low, adding that he hopes municipalities and local authorities will mobilize resources to service land for the development of properties for both residential and commercial purposes.
"In addition, I also want to mention something that I believe is very important but is not receiving a lot of attention. This is the issue of financial planning and budgeting, which in turn affects affordability for most Namibians. We all need to realize that unless we begin to live within our means and start saving, achieving financial freedom will remain a distant dream," he further said.

Efforts for Raising Electricity Production in DPRK
| Pyongyang, January 8 (KCNA) -- Officials and workers in the power industrial field of the DPRK have turned out in a drive to carry out the tasks set forth by supreme leader Kim Jong Un in his New Year address.
They are now concentrating efforts on the technical improvement for increasing electricity output.
The Pukchang Thermal Power Complex launched a brisk mass technological innovation movement to remodel fans of feed pumps and other kinds of equipment, while the Pyongyang Thermal Power Complex introduced several technical innovations like a system for protection of pumping equipment.
The Sunchon Thermal Power Plant is raising the operation rate of its equipment in close touch with a scientific institute and the Kanggye Youth Power Station put the operation of several electric governors and exciters on an intelligent basis.
Hochongang, Jangjingang and other power stations replaced water turbines with efficient ones and developed new vanes.
Meanwhile, efforts are directed to the construction of more transformer substations to increase the electric power supply capacity.
Minor hydraulic power stations throughout the country are keeping their equipment in good condition, while making an effective use of water resources.

Over 110 people attended the Whose Business is the Arts? public forum held by the Lehigh Valley Arts Council on October 30, 2007. A series of presentations and interactive sessions on the economy, the arts, and the community, Whose Business is the Arts? brought together business executives, corporate contributors, artists, arts administrators, foundation representatives, board members, and government officials.
Following a networking continental breakfast, Greg Butz of Alvin H. Butz Inc. gave opening remarks on the role of business in revitalizing the region's downtowns, and credited the arts in Allentown for his company's decision to relocate their headquarters to downtown. Randy Cohen, of Americans for the Arts, then took to the podium to discuss the recent results of Arts & Economic Prosperity III relative to life in the Lehigh Valley. Arts management consultant Bill Moskin followed with an address about the sustainability of the arts and ways in which the arts are in transition.
Following a break, the public forum broke into two sessions. Session A remained with Mr. Moskin to discuss identifying and strengthening arts/business partnerships.
Collaborations, according to Mr. Moskin, are imperative. They can vary in nature, from simple to complex, including programming, research, marketing, and administration. Questions to ask when considering an arts/business partnership include: What's the point and purpose? Why can working with someone else move you forward? How do you measure success? How much time is required? What is practical? Do both sides have the skill sets required? Do you share values? How is this really going to work?
It is also important to consider that the arts and businesses speak different languages. Jargon can be misleading, and both parties need to take the time to ask what needs to be explained. Arts and businesses also gave different bottom lines, which makes decision-making is more difficult and time-consuming. Success comes from looking at the places in the cultural organization or business where there is something mutual to accomplish and values overlap – perhaps not wholly, but partially. Collaborations can include activities that create a product, or intense investments, like putting together a cultural plan.
Finally, relationships can be fostered through underutilized alliances, like the introduction of younger board members for arts and cultural organizations. To allow for new voices and perspectives, suggestions include integration of younger board members, being intergenerational, and actively developing prospective future board members.
Session B featured Laura Mullen, who presented a case study on a successful, sustainable artist live/work space initiative in Rhode Island. In 2004, the Rhode Island State Council on the Arts hired Ms. Mullen to manage this grassroots enterprise. President of Pinpoint Studios, a graphic design firm, Mullen spoke on the experiences of the arts community in Providence over the past twenty years. As expensive real estate developments prospered, artists living and working in substandard but inexpensive spaces were displaced. A coalition resulted, a collaborative group that included arts leaders, nonprofit developers, artists, architecture and design professionals, to respond to the crisis with strategies that incorporated all facets of the city. Deemed the "Sustainable Artist Space Initiative," the coalition evaluated the needs as well as the obstacles of the displaced artists and the arts community. Outreach included working with non-profit developers, to make the case that artists fall within their income guidelines and target populations; joining municipal boards, such as citywide rezoning efforts; rallying the press; and collaborating with national efforts.
The coalition also worked directly with artists, holding free workshops for individuals looking for space on personal finance, lending, and working with an architect. It identified artist/developers to serve individuals within the artist community looking to redevelop small industrial buildings.
Involvement in the political and financial institutions that controlled building development led the coalition to plan and create spaces specifically tailored to artist and community needs. By working together, artists, city officials, and businesses created a variety of successful living and working developments tailored to the demands of their community.
The Lehigh Valley Arts Council is proud to anounce the results of the economic impact of the nonprofit arts industry in the Lehigh Valley region. These local results were compiled as part of the most comprehensive economic impact study of the nonprofit arts and culture industry ever conducted in the United States. Entitled Arts & Economic Prosperity III, the study was conducted in 156 communities and regions (116 cities and counties, 35 multi-county regions, and 5 states) including the Lehigh Valley region. Lehigh Valley Arts Council helped to facilitate the gathering of the detailed economic data from 85 arts and cultural organizations in Lehigh, Carbon and Northampton Counties that were among 6,080 local arts organizations surveyed nationwide. Americans for the Arts, which conducted the national study, is the leading nonprofit organization for advancing the arts in America.
The local data reveals that the Lehigh Valley's nonprofit arts industry generates $169.11 million in economic activity annually, including:
The $169.11 million includes $68.6 million in spending by arts organizations and $100.5 million in event-related spending by arts audiences, excluding the cost of admission. The $100.5 million in event-related spending by arts audiences reflects an average of $26.56 per person in spending for hotels, restaurants, parking, souvenirs, refreshments, or other similar costs—with non-local attendees spending nearly twice as much as local attendees ($22.73 compared to $35.91). This compares to $155.3 million in economic impact in the greater Buffalo, NY region, which has a population of 1.25 million.
Nationally, according to Americans for the Arts report, the nonprofit arts industry generates 5.7 million jobs and $166.2 billion in total economic activity every year, resulting in $29.6 billion in federal, state, and local government revenues. The $166.2 billion total includes $63.1 billion in spending by arts organizations and $103.1 billion in event-related spending by their audiences. The total economic activity has a significant national impact, generating the following:
"This study is a myth buster," said Robert L. Lynch, president and CEO of Americans for the Arts. "Most Americans understand that the arts improve our quality of life. This study demonstrates that the arts are an industry that stimulates the economy in cities and towns across the country. A vibrant arts and culture industry helps local businesses thrive."
The nation's nonprofit arts and culture industry has grown steadily since the first analysis by Americans for the Arts in 1992, expanding at a rate greater than inflation. Between the second study conducted in 2000 and 2005, spending by organizations and their audiences grew 24 percent, from $134 billion to $166.2 billion in total economic activity.
The Lehigh Valley was one of only 24 communities that was part of the previous study and established a benchmark for comparison. In 2002, the study revealed $113 million in economic impact compared to the current $169.11 million. That means the Lehigh Valley experienced a 50% growth—more than double the national average.
The Arts & Economic Prosperity III study shows thatnonprofits arts support more jobs than accountants and auditors, public safety officers, and even lawyers, and just slightly fewer than elementary school teachers. Spending by nonprofit arts and culture organizations provide rewarding employment for more than just artists, curators, and musicians but they also directly support builders, plumbers, accountants, printers, and an array of occupations.
In addition, the study reveals that the nonprofit arts industry is the cornerstone of tourism. The $103.1 billion in event-related spending by arts audiences reflects an average of $27.79 per person in spending for hotels, restaurants, parking, souvenirs, refreshments, or other similar costs—with non-local attendees spending twice as much as local attendees ($40.19 vs. $19.53). When a community attracts cultural tourists, it harnesses significant economic rewards.

The distribution of actinides in the core of an accelerator-driven system loaded with plutonium, americium, and curium has been studied in order to optimize the proton source efficiency *. The optimization of * was performed by keeping some important characteristics of the system, e.g., the radial power profile and the reactivity of the core, constant. One of the basic assumptions of the study, that the magnitude of * is sensitive primarily to the composition of actinides in the inner part of the core, whereas only marginally to that in the outer part, has been confirmed. It has been shown that the odd-N nuclides (those nuclides with an even number of neutrons) in general and 241Am and 244Cm in particular have favorable properties with respect to improving * if they are placed in the innermost part of the core. The underlying reason for this phenomenon is that the energy spectrum of the source neutrons in the inner part of the core is harder than that of the average fission neutrons. Moreover, it has been shown that loading the inner part of the core with only curium increases * by ~7%. Plutonium, on the other hand, in particular high-quality plutonium consisting mainly of 239Pu and 241Pu, was found to be a comparatively source inefficient element and is preferably located in the outer part of the core. The differences in * are due to combined effects from relative changes in the average fission and capture cross sections and in the average fission neutron yield.

Host a Fundraising Event
Rules and Guidelines
1. Event or Initiative Host
Individuals, staff, contractors, organizations, and businesses (Fundraising Organizers) may host a fundraising event or initiative (i.e. raffle, coin collection jars, etc.) to benefit Laradon.
Laradon employees are subject to the same process, rules and guidelines as any individual, sponsor, organization or business who is requesting to host a fundraising event.
2. Event or Initiative Application
In order to coordinate different fundraising efforts at one time, avoid duplication and provide the necessary support to the organizer, Laradon will be informed of all fundraising efforts in advance of any fundraising activity. The Fundraising Organizers will complete the Laradon Fundraising Event and/or Initiative Application and Agreement and submit the application to Laradon a minimum of ninety (90) days prior to the event or start of the initiative.
3. Responsibilities and Liabilities
All Fundraising Organizers will comply with government regulations, licensing requirements and Laradon's mission and operating philosophy. It is the Fundraising Organizer's responsibility to ensure the event or initiative is legal under State and Federal law.
The Fundraising Organizer will obtain all required insurance, permits and licenses. Copies of insurance, permits and licenses must be submitted to Laradon prior to the event. Failure to do so will result in Laradon denying approval of the event or initiative. Insurance, additional permits and licenses will be valid through the conclusion of the event.
The Fundraising Organizer agrees to indemnify, refund and hold harmless against any and all claims, demands, losses, costs, expenses, obligations, liabilities, damages, recoveries, and deficiencies, including interests, penalties and reasonable attorney's fees that will be incurred or suffered by Laradon which arise as a result from, or relate to, the fundraising event or appeal, and/or the organizer/sponsor/organization/business' performance.
Approval of hosting a fundraising event/initiative by Laradon does not authorize the Fundraising Organizer to act as an agent of Laradon. Therefore, the Fundraising Organizers may not open a bank or credit card account in Laradon's name; the Fundraising Organizers may not endorse or attempt to negotiate any checks made payable to Laradon. The organizer may not speak on behalf of Laradon.
The Fundraising Organizer will follow all rules on the use of Laradon's logo and photographs of participants.
Fundraising Organizers will disclose, at the point of solicitation, the actual or anticipated portion of the purchase price that will benefit Laradon and the duration of the campaign. (i.e., 15% of all sales of candy goes directly to support Laradon's programs; candy will be on sale until July 1st).
4. Fundraising Event/Initiative Master Plan
The Fundraising Organizers will develop a Master Plan for the fundraising event or Initiative. The Master Plan will include a budget (including estimated revenue, expenses), funding plan (including payment of deposits and expenses occurred prior to the event), publicity plan and site logistics plan.
If an initiative is being planned the Master Plan will include a plan for collection and distribution of the funds designated for Laradon. Laradon's Director of Financial Management will work with the organizer on establishing a transparent system to track revenue and expenses as well as a schedule and method of transferring the money to Laradon.
The organizer will meet with appropriate Laradon staff to review the plan and to determine Laradon's involvement with the event including the amount of logistical and administrative support (including manpower before, during and after an event) that Laradon can provide.
Laradon reserves the right to use vendors from the agency's preferred vendor list. In order to ensure a responsible selection of vendors, Laradon reserves the right to request that a three bid process be used for expenses over $5,000. It is the responsibility of Laradon's Executive Director to approve any expenses over $5,000 and communicate the information to Laradon's Board of Directors.
If a professional fundraiser or promotions consultant is hired by the Fundraising Organizer to coordinate the event, a portion of the event or the initiative, this will be included in the Master Plan. The professional must agree to adhere to all federal, local and state laws. Compensation for professional fundraisers or promoters will not be based on commission or a percentage of monies raised for Laradon.
5. Solicitation to Businesses and Corporate Sponsors
The Fundraising Organizer will submit the name of any businesses or corporate sponsors to be solicited for support in advance to Laradon so conflicts with sponsors and donors who may already be involved with other fundraising efforts can be avoided. This includes celebrities, sports teams, etc.
It is also important for Fundraising Organizers to inform sponsors that events on behalf of Laradon are not "official" events, therefore, they will not receive a tax receipt. The only donations that Laradon can acknowledge and provide a tax receipt are ones that come to Laradon directly.
6. Delivery of Proceeds
Within 90 days after the event or initiative is completed, the Fundraising Organizer will deliver ALL net proceeds from the event or initiative, including a detailed report of fundraising expenses.
Initiatives that collect donations year-round must provide Laradon with quarterly reports that details revenue and expenses along with the quarterly proceeds. Deadline dates for quarterly reports are preferred in January, April, July and October. Arrangements for other dates must be requested in writing.
Fundraising Organizers do not have the right to hold funds donated to Laradon through the fundraiser or initiative, earn and keep interest on funds donated; they do not have the right to create and/or enforce rules on how Laradon will obtain donated funds; nor decide how Laradon will spend donated funds that are not raised for a specific program, service or purpose.
All accounting, information and transactions will be made available to a third party auditing firm.

Global, the operator of stations including Capital FM, Heart and Classic FM, snapped up GMG, the company behind the Real and Smooth brands, in a £70 million deal last year.
Competition Commission deputy chairman Simon Polito said: "The advertisers most likely to lose out from this deal are those who do not use national media agencies, and so includes smaller and medium-sized companies.
"These advertisers rely on the presence of competing commercial stations in order to negotiate a good deal."
The findings may force Global to sell stations in areas where the two firms overlap.
The commission is opening a consultation on its provisional decision, which will run until March 6.

So. School again. I'm so anti social and I didn't talk to anyone over the summer, so It`s pretty impossible for me to make friends. So going back to school is an opportunity for me to make some new friends and be myself without getting questioned by my parents. But truly I`d rather stay home and play minecraft all day. I started a new world on mine craft about a week ago and I`ve already got a wheat farm and lots of cow penned in front of my big house. I also found an abandoned mine shaft and I explored it, but I can`t find any red stone. Im looking for some so I can build a compass. Then when I have a compass, I can build a map, then I wont get lost. I think I`m cheating though, I set it to peaceful mode so I never have to eat and there isn`t any more monsters on the game. Today when I was playing it, my cat came over and layed on my arm so I had to pause the game cause she was distracting. She is sitting my window sill looking at me right now. Its cute. HAHA I think Its weird how my thoughts change, like I`m reading this blog over to make shur it makes sense and it totally doesn`t.I guess that means I kind of bored.....
I hate that they added the hunger bar though. I liked 1.7.3 better.(I think that was the one) I haven't played minecraft in forever...now I want to play it... lol! I remember making a house of glass underwater with a dock for a boat. There was also one I made that was pretty cool it had a tunnel to go underground to mine and there were a bunch of torches leading the way. There was a chest full of redstone down there and lots of diamond and gold. There was also a bunch of obsidion.

Update: I just spoke with Alison McDonald, the district administrator who oversees both schools at McClymonds. She said the Tuesday lunch meeting at BEST wasn't a formal part of the community engagement process, even though it appeared on the list. She said she wanted to make it, but that there was a meeting at the same time that she needed to attend.
Late this morning, I dropped by BEST, a small high school at West Oakland's McClymonds campus, in hopes of catching an intensive discussion about school reform.
BEST is one of the five schools which the school district is monitoring because of low enrollment and low test scores. By the end of the calendar year, district staff are expected to announce whether the high school — and other schools — will close, merge, be redesigned, or receive other interventions.
Those decisions are supposed to be heavily influenced by the insights of the parents and staff, a candid exchange that is supposed to take place at a series of "community engagement" sessions — such as the lunch time meeting today (designed for parents who work night shifts).
But I left today's meeting, nearly an hour after it was scheduled to start, when it became clear that wasn't going to happen. Besides Renato Almanzor, director of the new Family & Community Office, no district administrators attended. Only one or two family members did.
The principal, James Gray, had some charts about program improvement and test scores, which he said he'd present. He also said he'd try to answer questions about the future of the school, but that he didn't have too many details about why the school was being monitored or what was going to happen.
For the first 45 minutes, as Gray came in and out of the library, a handful of people sat awkwardly around a table, eating a student-catered lunch and waiting for something to happen.
At least the attendees came away well fed — the food looked really good.

text: GamesBeat 5 games reimagined as romance novels (gallery) Above: A fictional Street Fighter novel.Image Credit: Shutterstock February 11, 2014 1:30 PM Jeff Grubb 0 Gaming is in its golden age, and big and small players alike are maneuvering like kings and queens in A Game of Thrones. Register now for our GamesBeat 2015 event, Oct. 12-Oct.13, where we'll explore strategies in the new world of gaming. This Valentine's Day, you no longer have to imagine what the cover of The Legend of Zelda would look like if it were a trashy romance novel. Shutterstock, the online stock-photo company, has reimagined a handful of games as if they were paperback books featuring Fabio. Shutterstock invited artist Echo Chernik to create covers for romance novels based on Super Mario Bros., Street Fighter, and more. The company gave Chernik full access to its library of stock photos, and Chernik painted over various pictures to create fictional books like Fierce Moves, a story of forbidden love between two street fighters. The results are amazing. Check out all of the covers below, and read what Chernik has to say about her creations: Gallery: GalleryAbove: Artist Echo Chernik: "The concept for Mario was a jealous Luigi. It took a while to find the right reference -- something that left a nice negative space for Luigi, while also not looking too similar to the Link and Zelda cover. The image I found of a man on his knee kissing his bride's hand was perfect, as it reflected Mario's short stature, while being romantic in nature. I wasn't keen on the woman's face for the princess, though, so I replaced it with a different photo that looked much more like a physical representation of Princess Peach."Image Credit: Shutterstock Related articles Nintendo president Iwata, Mario creator Miyamoto, and other Nintendo executives take pay cut due to Wii U Shutterstock launches new learn-to-code site, Skillfeed Amazon prepares to take its online groceries business beyond Seattle Former Nintendo President Hiroshi Yamauchi dies at age 85 Nintendo unveils the 2DS handheld, sans 3D, for launch on same day as next Pokemon game More information: Shutterstock Founded in 2003 and headquartered in New York City, Shutterstock is an innovative technology company, operating in more than 150 countries and 20 languages.

Reeks of effort and doesn't solve the MP whinge I had.SP? You can setup SP difficulties to your hearts desire, like everything in regular and veteran being equal. Choose regular and set it up same as veteran.
But srsly, reading some of the other suggestions - making the X-C axis a bar like the Q-Z would probably go quite some way to making the keyboard method a bit more controllable.

SLCC Chamber Singers Perform at Presidential Inauguration Today
Salt Lake Community College Chamber Singers will be Washington, D.C. to participate in the Presidential Inauguration Choir competition. Forty students and faculty from the College will compete with the choir and attend the Inauguration ceremony at the U.S. Capitol building marking the beginning of President Obama's second term in office today, January 21, 2013.
"This is a wonderful opportunity for our students to represent the College and to be apart of this historic event," said Anna Szabados, SLCC Dean of the School of Arts, Communication and New Media. "The SLCC Chamber Singers are a talented group that reflect well the caliber of student and quality of training at the College. We're proud to send them to President Obama's second inauguration ceremony."
President Obama's first term officially ends on January 20 at noon, at which time he will be sworn-in for a second term with his Vice President Joseph Biden. Because that day is a Sunday, in keeping with custom, the public ceremonies will be held the next day.
A documentary film crew comprised of both SLCC students and faculty will accompany the Chamber Singers to chronicle the trip and performance.

Fatty Liver Disease (cont.)
Fatty Liver Treatment
Patient Comments
The treatment of fatty liver disease is to decrease the potential risk exposures to the liver. For those with alcoholic liver disease, abstaining from alcohol is a must. For those with NALFD or NASH, appropriate diet, weight loss, diabetes control, and cholesterol/triglyceride control are important both for treatment and to prevent progression of the disease from NAFLD to NASH, and from NASH to cirrhosis.
Patients with celiac sprue who maintain a strict gluten free diet can reverse fat accumulation in the liver.
Cardiovascular exercise can help promote weight loss and weight training can increase muscle mass. This not only improves metabolism and promotes weight loss, but the increase in muscle mass helps to sensitize the cells to insulin and reduces insulin resistance.
