Live from the Dubai 24 Hour Part II
Our second update from this year's slightly ridiculous Middle Eastern endurance race: racing begins, sunlight ends...
Posted: 13 Jan 2012
JUST IN: Nissan's GT-R has officially retired after early race contact caused a series of problems, culminating in its departure.
"In the end we fell victim to the knock on effect of the initial contact," said JRM's James Rumsey. "We brought the car in to check the suspension for damage and changed the tyres as a precaution. We then had to pit again as the steering had become offset. When Michael (Krumm) was running he was fast and when Alex (Buncombe) got in for his stint he was quick too. Alex reported a vibration at the end of his run and it turned out the front splitter mounting was damaged and there was also some damage to a radiator. We took our time to fix these issues but ultimately we decided to retire the car when we started to have cooling issues due to the earlier radiator damage."

The Champs-Elysees was originally fields and market gardens, until 1616, when Marie de Medici decided to expand the garden axis of the Palais des Tuileries by means of an avenue of trees.
Guillaume de L'Isle's map of The french capital shows that a short stretch of roads and fields in addition to market garden plots still separated the grand axe of the Tuileries gardens from the planted "Avenue des Tuilleries" as late as 1716.
By the late 1700s, the Champs-Elysees had turn into a trendy boulevard and the trees on either side had thickened enough to be given formal rectangular glades, identified as cabinets de verdure. The green areas of houses built along the Faubourg St-Honore backed onto the formal bosquets, with the grandest of them all being the

I have read the manual. I have used InnoDB for small (50MB) databases. I
have NOT managed high-capacity InnoDB databases. If you want more
reassurance than what the manual says, talk to someone else.

It seems odd to me that RH9 wouldn't have large file support enabled.
Perhaps the mysqld binary you are using just isn't compiled to take
advantage of it. Maybe you should install from source and the configure
script will recognize that LFS is available?
There is an interesting user comment regarding 4.0.12 at

This syntax sure doesn't look like the examples in the manual.

This website is designed as a tool for all current ENGL-097 faculty and prospective faculty members. Although the materials incorporated in the site have been designed with the teacher in mind, students may also find portions of it useful. The site introduces newcomers to the course, explains some of the philosophy that drives the course and provides instructional resources for teaching the course. It attempts to address many of the questions any newcomer would have about the course such as: Who are the instructors? How is the course organized? What subjects are addressed? What classroom issues might an instructor anticipate? What are effective strategies for addressing some of those issues?
The ERG incorporates materials that 097 instructors have successfully used over the years to meet the needs of our specific student population. Anyone using this guide will also develop a portrait of the range of work our students produce, for they have generously agreed to allow us to use their work for this ongoing project. The site also provides a wealth of information from other sources. A number of links include an annotative list of web sources for instructors searching for different approaches for teaching developmental writing students.
Although the ERG is rich in the information it provides, it is not exhaustive. In an effort to maintain this site, we will continue to collect useful resources from instructors, students, and web sites to meet the growing and ever changing needs of our students.

Admiral: Repair Work by Private Yards Won't Be Cut
April 11, 2013
Almost all $287 million in local Navy ship repairs that were in danger of being cut no longer are on the chopping block, a senior Navy official said Wednesday - good news for thousands of skilled waterfront workers whose jobs were in jeopardy.
The Navy has warned for weeks that maintenance contracts with private shipyards on 11 warships could be canceled as it figured out how to trim $4.6 billion over the next six months, cuts required under federal belt-tightening known as sequestration.
Rear Adm. Joseph Mulloy, deputy secretary of the Navy for the budget, said that nine of the ships scheduled for overhauls in Hampton Roads will be fixed in coming months, and that most maintenance at other shipyards in the U.S. and overseas will occur.
Scheduled repairs on eight other ships, including two in Norfolk, are not yet funded, Mulloy said, but he said he anticipated putting them back on schedule later this year. He said the two local ship projects still in jeopardy - the amphibious assault ship Wasp and the patrol ship Shamal - aren't due in the yards until September.

McGlynn Wind Turbine
Massachusetts Municipal Association - 2010 - Kenneth E. Pickard Municipal Innovation Award
The support and dedication of the town of Medford, Massachusetts, toward sustainable energy as part of the Cities for Climate Protection Campaign manifested into the construction of a 131-foot wind turbine at a local school. Strong public interest is leading to additional initiatives including a renewable energy education park.
The unveiling of a 131-foot wind turbine on the grounds of John McGlynn Sr. Elementary and Middle School in Medford in early 2009 came roughly a decade after the city embraced the goals of the international Cities for Climate Protection Campaign.
But the 100-kilowatt turbine – which is supplying about 10 percent of the school's energy needs and canceling out as much as 133 tons per year of carbon dioxide that would otherwise enter the atmosphere – is by no means the culmination of the city's efforts. According to Mayor Michael McGlynn, Medford is already looking ahead to the possibility of large-scale solar-power arrays as well as additional wind turbines.
"I think that now that people have seen [the wind turbine at the school] and love it, they want to do more," McGlynn said.
The project's educational component helps account for its popularity. The Medford Clean Energy Committee's Web site (www.medfordcleanenergy.org) provides real-time data on wind speed and the amount of power being generated, as well as running totals of cost savings and pollutant offsets. The city, in partnership with Tufts University and Whole Foods Markets, is creating a "Renewable Energy Education Park" that is scheduled to be completed this fall.
"The greatest benefit [of the wind turbine] is the education of a whole new generation," McGlynn said. "In one short year, I now have parents telling me what they've learned from their children."
The Medford City Council's vote to support the ICLEI Cities for Climate Protection Campaign back in 1999 led, two years later, to the city becoming the first in the state to establish a local-action plan for reducing greenhouse gases. One of the action-items included in the plan was the creation of a municipal Energy and Environment Office, now headed by Patricia Barry.
A wind-feasibility study was undertaken in the fall of 2006, and the following spring the city received a $250,000 grant from the Massachusetts Renewable Energy Trust. When construction costs ended up being $100,000 higher than projected, Medford considered auctioning off the naming rights to the project, but instead was able to obtain the needed amount, over a five-year period, from the Massachusetts Energy Consumers Alliance.

Talks Held between Top Leaders of DPRK and Russia
Pyongyang, August 24 (KCNA) -- Talks were held between Kim Jong Il, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and chairman of the DPRK National Defence Commission, and Dmitri Anatoliyevich Medvedev, president of the Russian Federation, in Ulan-Ude, the capital city of the Republic of Buryatia of Russia, on Wednesday.
Present at the talks from the DPRK side were Kim Yong Chun, member of the Political Bureau of the WPK Central Committee and minister of the People's Armed Forces, Kang Sok Ju, member of the Political Bureau of the WPK Central Committee and vice-premier of the Cabinet, Kim Yang Gon, alternate member of the Political Bureau and secretary of the WPK Central Committee, Kim Kye Gwan, first vice-minister of Foreign Affairs, and Kim Yong Jae, DPRK ambassador to Russia.
Present there from the Russian side were Sergei Prikhodiko, assistant to president for external policy, Viktor Ishayev, presidential envoy to the Far East Region of the Russian Federation, Viktor Tolokonski, presidential envoy to the Siberian Region of the Russian Federation, Anatoly Serzhukov, minister of Defense, Igor Levitin, minister of Transport, Viktor Basargin, minister of Regional Development and chairman of the Russian side to the Governmental Committee between Russia-Korea for the Cooperation of Trade and Economy, Science and Technology, Valery Sukhinin, Russian ambassador to the DPRK, and Aleksei Borodavkin, vice-minister of Foreign Affairs.
Medvedev warmly welcomed Kim Jong Il visiting Russia, noting that his Russia visit is of particularly important significance in promoting the mutual understanding, trust, friendship and cooperation between the two countries and putting the Russia-DPRK friendly relations on a new higher stage.
Saying that Kim Jong Il's appreciation of the changes taking place in the land of Russia during his long trip to the Far East and Siberia regions constitutes a great inspiration and positive support to the struggle of the Russian people, the Russian president highly estimated the contribution made by Kim Jong Il to steadily developing the bilateral friendly relations.
The Russian president extended kind salute to all the Korean people who are dedicating themselves to bringing about a new turn in building a prosperous and powerful nation till 2012, the centenary of the birth of President Kim Il Sung, the great leader of the Korean people.
The Russian president expressed support to the positive measures taken by the DPRK to defend the peace and security of Northeast Asia, develop the economy to suit the specific conditions of the country and improve the standard of the people's living. He expressed the belief that the Korean people would register greater successes in the building of a prosperous and powerful nation under the leadership of Kim Jong Il.
Kim Jong Il thanked the Russian president and other central leading officials and the governments and people of different regions for kindly receiving him wherever he went and according him cordial hospitality and extended his regards to the Russian people.
He said he witnessed the successes achieved by the Russian government and people in the work to modernize the economy, bolster the defense capability and achieve social stability under the leadership of Medvedev and got better knowledge of the history and culture of Russia while touring several cities and units of the vast Far East and Siberian regions. He hoped the Russian people would enjoy prosperity in the future, too.
At the talks the top leaders of the two countries informed each other of the situation in their countries and appreciated with satisfaction the favorably developing bilateral relations. They exchanged their views on developing the bilateral relations and reached a consensus of views on all the issues discussed.
The two top leaders were unanimous in saying that boosting the bilateral friendly and cooperative relations with a long historical tradition is not only in line with the desire of the two peoples and their fundamental interests but is of important significance in developing Northeast Asia and defending world peace and security.
The Russian president reiterated that the Russian side would join the DPRK side in boosting the Russia-DPRK good-neighborly, friendly and cooperative relations and thus making a positive contribution to bringing greater well-being to the two peoples.
Kim Jong Il reiterated the determination of the government and people of the DPRK to make every possible effort to further develop the traditional bilateral friendly and cooperative relations in the future, too.
At the talks the top leaders underlined the need for the two countries to boost the friendship, equality and mutually beneficial cooperative relations in the spirit of the DPRK-Russia Joint Declaration inked in Pyongyang in 2000, the 2001 DPRK-Russia Moscow Declaration and the Treaty of Friendship, Good-neighborliness and Cooperation between the DPRK and Russia.
They expressed firm belief that the cause of building a prosperous and powerful nation in the DPRK and that of building a powerful state in Russia would surely be accomplished thanks to the two peoples' vigorous struggle for social progress and development. They expressed mutual support and solidarity with the cause.
The two top leaders had an in-depth exchange of views on regional and international issues at the talks.
At the talks they shared the view that the six-party talks should be resumed without any precondition at an early date to implement the September 19 joint statement on the principle of simultaneous action and thus accelerate the denuclearization of the whole Korean Peninsula.
Manifested at the talks was the will of the governments of the two countries to reject high-handed and arbitrary practices in the international arena and establish a fair international order in order to actively contribute to the peace and security in the region and the rest of the world.
The talks discussed a series of agenda items on boosting the economic and cooperative relations in various fields including the issue of energy including gas and the issue of linking railways and reached a common understanding of them.
It was decided at the talks to organize and operate working groups to put the above-said issues into practice and the two countries agreed to continue cooperating with each other in this direction.
The two top leaders expressed satisfaction with the results of the talks and further deepened their friendship.
Kim Jong Il invited the Russian president to pay a visit to the DPRK at a convenient time and the invitation was accepted with pleasure.
The talks proceeded in a sincere and friendly atmosphere from start to end.

Love these boxes, did a ton of research and finally ordered the Zegas. Glad I did as the other panniers I researched would have been a compromise. Great craftsmanship, functionality and looks. It only took 30 minutes to install the racks. I've been commuting for a couple of weeks and they hold food, computer and clothing no problem. Going on a multi-day tour in about a month to really break them in! And an added plus, the Touratech folks were great to work with, you hear that HZ!

A little follow up to my last review, got rear ended last night by a BMW 328i coupe and ended up on the tarmac. I think the panniers saved my leg and bike, only damage to bike was broken clutch lever and front left turn signal. The pannier kept the bike off the ground and off my leg....only damage to pannier was scrape to the plastic cornerguard, no damage to the rack. i lucked out and only had scrapes to my shin from the footpeg...new safety checklist; gloves, riding jacket, helmet, boots and panniers!
By Lowell Tacker on Feb 08, 2012 at 07:02:15 PM
I, too, did quite a bit of research on panniers for my Tiger XC. It always came back to the Zega Pro system, so I bit the bullet and bought in. And I'm glad i did. The install of the rack system was incredibly easy and fast. Once on, the panniers are rock-solid. I still have yet to test them off-road, but I don't foresee any problems.

About The Area
A Brief History
It is unclear when Placentia was first settled by Europeans, but Basque fishermen were fishing in the area as early as the beginning of the 16th century, using Placentia as a seasonal centre of operations. Plazenta meaning pleasantness in basque language, derived from the Latin placentia is probably a name given by the Basques. Placentia's large, rocky beach meant that fish could be salted and dried on the beachrocks rather than on a constructed wooden fishing stage, saving both time and effort.
In 1655, the French, who controlled more than half of the island of Newfoundland, and most of Atlantic Canada, made Placentia (or 'Plaisance,' as they called it) their capital.
A number of factors prompted France formally to occupy this fishing station.
- Compete more effectively with the English in Newfoundland.
- The bay is free of ice by early spring and fishing activity could start there earlier than elsewhere.
- It was a convenient sheltering place for those going to or returning from Canada, Acadia, the English North American colonies and the West Indies.
- The high cost of goods imported from France.
Like their counterparts elsewhere in the French empire, administrators, both civil and military, had a financial interest in the local economy, in this case the fishery and the trade. They were not interested in supporting the interests of the French merchant ships which came to Newfoundland to make significant profits on the sale of goods, and to take back cargos of dried cod. These ships had a supposed monopoly in supplying the planters, and sometimes demanded exorbitant prices. However, from about 1706 Plaisance drew a large part of its annual supply from Québec, and products from New England were readily available at better prices than those from France. Boston merchants could visit Plaisance three or four times a year, whereas French merchants could perhaps make only a single visit. This illicit trade was in existence by 1676 and continued after 1690, probably preventing the colony's collapse during the war.
The establishment of a garrison allowed fishermen to pursue their activities with greater safety in neighbouring harbours such as Burin, St. Lawrence, Mortier and Chapeau Rouge and despite small numbers, the soldiers and French privateers managed to hold their own in the face of numerous English attacks during the two major conflicts which marked the colony's history - the War of the League of Augsburg (1688-1697) and the War of Spanish Succession (1702-1712).
In 1689-1697 War with England prompted the French government to put in place new administrative structures. The first civil servants arrived in 1689, and set up a small administration to work in conjunction with the governor. By 1700, Plaisance had at least four civil servants and had become a fully fledged colony of New France, together with Canada and Acadia.
By the Treaty of Utrecht (1713), Plaisance was handed over to Britain. Its French inhabitants were given the choice of returning to France, or settling in the new French colony of Île Royale (Cape Breton Island). In the spring of 1714, the governor of Plaisance began organizing the emigration. Apart from four or five individuals who chose to become British subjects, the inhabitants opted for Cape Breton. Three royal ships, assisted by merchant vessels, took the population to the future site of Louisbourg. It is said that the group consisted of 116 men, 10 women and 23 children. In the new colony, these planter families received free property rights comparable to those they had left behind in Plaisance.
For a time in the 1700s, it still rivaled St. John's in size and importance, as evidenced by the future King William IV's summering at Placentia in 1786 and using it as his base of operations when acting as surrogate judge in Newfoundland[3]. The town was described by the then-Prince as "a more decent settlement than any we have yet seen in Newfoundland" and was reported as having a population between 1500 and 2000 people. Considering that the population of Newfoundland was reported as 8,000 11 years earlier, in 1775, Placentia's relative size and importance becomes apparent.
From the mid-1700s through to the 1830s, numerous Irish immigrants from Waterford, Wexford, Kilkenny and Cork settled in Placentia, so that the population of the modern town is largely of a mixture of West Country English and South-eastern Irish background. In the 1700s there were also a large number of settlers from the Channel Islands, from which Jerseyside, a prominent section of the town, derives its name.
Placentia Tourism
Placentia has many features that make is a popular tourist attraction in Newfoundland and Labrador.
- A unique lift-bridge that spans the tumultuous tides of 'the gut' (the narrow opening to the harbour).
- Many archaeological sites with several excellent examples of late-19th century Newfoundland architecture
- Two museums (O'Reilly House and Castle Hill)
- Marine Atlantic ferry linking from Newfoundland to Nova Scotia (via Argentia).
- 130 kilometres from the capital city, St. John's
- Short distance from the scenic Cape Shore and the Cape St. Mary's Ecological Reserve
The town has an established summer stock theatre troupe, Placentia Area Theatre D'Heritage, which performs historical plays of significance in the Placentia area. They also perform a dinner theatre cabaret set in the 1950's during the Argentia Base heyday, and a ghost walk. The troupe generally consists of post-secondary students under the direction of the province's finest theatre producers.
The post office was established in 1851.
The first Postmistress in 1863 was Mary Morris.
In 1940, via an agreement between the British and American governments (Newfoundland not joining Canada until 1949), a large American military base was constructed at nearby Argentia (which is now within the town of Placentia's boundaries). For a time, this was the largest American military base outside of the United States, and it played an integral role in World War II, earning the nickname "the Gibraltar of the Atlantic."
In 2009, Placentia celebrated the opening of its Cultural Arts Center with a month of artistic events, including drama productions, art exhibitions (three shows recognizing art from elementary students, high school students, and adults), and musical performances.

The 53rd Electronic Warfare Group recently picked up some "hardware" for its continuous mission data software advancement efforts and many other EW achievements.
The 36th Electronic Warfare Squadron was the big winner earning an Air Force Outstanding Unit award and five individual awards from the Association of Old Crows. The AOC is a non-profit organization that promotes the exchange of new ideas and information and the dissemination of new research and knowledge in the fields of electronic warfare and information operations.
"Winning the Outstanding Unit Award is a perfect way to recognize the monumental accomplishments of the 36th EWS over the last two years, and I consider myself lucky to be counted among these brilliant professionals," said Lt. Col. Rob Epstein, 36th EWS commander. "Having five members of our squadron also recognized for their individual accomplishments nationally only reinforces the squadron's heritage of excellence and the quality of its members."
The outstanding unit award was for accomplishments performed from 2011 through 2012.
According to the award citation, during that time, the 36th EWS released 91 electronic warfare mission data updates in support of various overseas operations and 301 total mission data loads, supporting aircrew training and test programs and ensuring the combat air force was prepared for contingency operations. The squadron's Airmen led 13 lab, ground and flight exploitations of foreign threat systems developing new self-protection jamming techniques and increasing the survivability of combat aircraft while supporting 14 aircraft and software upgrade programs.
The 36th EWS AOC award winners were:
- 1st Lt. Patrick Hunt - Stanley Hall EW Business Management award
- James Hurst - Jerry Sowell Radio Frequency award
- Angel Ramos - Electro-Optical-Infrared (EO-IR) award
- Lance Hofman - McMullin Test & Evaluation award
Tech. Sgt. Jason Stegeman, a former 36th EWS "Gremlin," now with the 16th Electronic Warfare Squadron, also won an award from the AOC for EW logistics. He said it was a complete surprise and honor to win and added that even before he'd completed his technical training in EW 15 years ago, he remembered hearing about the AOC.
"I didn't realize I'd been put in for the award," said Stegeman. "My flight commander handed me a letter from the AOC saying I'd won. To be recognized by your peers is the greatest accomplishment one can receive."
After earning five individual awards from the AOC, also was the top choice for the organization's Electronic Warfare Unit of the Year.

roz & ALI™ Plus Size Lux Stretch Denim Jeggings 139 139
definitely recommend! I wear these to work, and tuck my tank into the pants. Myvtank doesn't move! I usually wear slacks to work and most don't have belt loops, so I couldn't wear a belt to keep my tank tucked in and pants up! But these don't even need a belt! But love that o have the option. They are super comfortable. And I feel like they can be casual as well as dressy May 13, 2015
Love these pants! These are great pants. I have that apple shape that is so hard to fit, but these are stretchy enough to accommodate that. I bought one size down because the size I already had did stretch out enough to where they were always sliding down. These are doing the same, but they're a better fit so it's not as much of a problem. I wish they were offered in more colors! April 29, 2015
Love these so much bought 2 pair! I never in a million years thought I could wear a jegging. They were NOT called jeggings in the store, just Lux Stretch denim ankle jean. I'm 50 years old and since losing some weight I was on the hunt for new jeans. I tried these on, along with every other denim Dress Barn had in-store, and these were BY FAR the prettiest, most flattering pair of denim pants EVER. The salesgirl raved about how great they looked on me. I'm about 5'5" tall and wear a 16W. These are the perfect length, and they hold their shape all day. I wore them yesterday with a hi-low chiffon top and a cropped jacket, and when I met friends for drinks my friends, male and female alike, commented on how fantastic they looked on me. I liked them so much bought a second pair. I've never been in love with a jean like I am these! Thanks Dress Barn! April 21, 2015
Love these pants!! I love these pants! If I could get a pair in every color I would! They are soft and comfortable, and they look great! Thanks Dress Barn!! Paula April 21, 2015

Since the publication of her first work, Semeiotikè, in 1969, Julia Kristeva has been at the forefront of critical analysis and cultural theory, helping to shape the field and define its methodology. With over twenty major volumes and innumerable prefaces and essays, hers is a prolific output that draws on many disciplines: linguistics, literary theory and criticism, psychoanalysis, biography and autobiography, political and cultural analysis, art and art history. Many of her works are indispensable terms of reference for contemporary cultural theory, since she is the architect of some of its central concepts and associated methodologies of recent years, such as intertextuality, the semiotic, and …

Apple Black Friday deals confirmed...
Apple has confirmed that it will be offering Black Friday deals around the world on the 27 November although, as yet, has failed to inform consumers keen to pick up a new iPod or Mac of what those deals actually are.
Shoppers getting ready for the biggest day in the American shopping calendar are instead told to head online or in store on the 27th.
Last week rumours started circulating that Apple would slash prices by up to 25%, however experts believe that is highly unlikely.
The latest rumour, this is Apple don't forget, suggests a more mediocre $50 to $100 off a MacBook in the US with around $30 to $50 off an iPod or iPod touch.
We will keep you posted.
In the meantime why not read our How to: Shop Black Friday guide that gives you some great tips and tricks to get the best bargains around.

Our group uses and develops advanced synchrotron infrared spectroscopic methods to study complex microbial cycling of elements such as bioremediation and plant cell-wall deconstruction and carbon sequestration.
In microbial cycling of elements we aim to define the principle underlying bacteria's remarkable chemical ability to survive extreme environments, and to use this principle to manage these bacteria for remediate heavy metal polluted sites for converting biomass to fuels effectively. Sulfate reducing bacteria (SRB), for example, are obligate anaerobes and their ability to detoxify radionuclides and metals are regulated to external conditions, such as oxygen levels, and one of the key components of is regularly undergoing adaptation and repair. We plan to understand SRB's ability at the molecular level by combining high-resolution synchrotron infrared spectromicroscopy with system biology through collaboration with colleagues at the Virtual Institute for Microbial Stress and Survival (VIMSS). We have recently shown, using time difference synchrotron infrared spectromicroscopy, that well-orchestrated chemical events exist in SRB enabling them to transiently survive the most hostile condition − air. We are exploring the implications of these chemical events for bioremediation of radionuclides and metals.
The abundance of cellulose in stover and the diversity of microbial cellulosomes with significant cellulolytic effects yield a rich range of properties for bioenergy production. We aim to explore and understand these properties with a particular current emphasis on cellulose hydrolysis and byproduct toxicity on microbial cycling of carbons under transient and highly heterogeneous conditions via microfluidic synchrotron infrared spectromicroscopy and theoretical modeling.
Synchrotron infrared spectromicroscopy is an emerging technology with many potential ways to enhance its resolution, sharpen the information content, and define microbial reaction pathways. My group continues to develop new infrared spectroscopy methods and the computational tools for their analysis.

In Scotland
In some cities, the mayor is a voting member of the council who serves as chairman; in others, the mayor is the city's independent chief executive (or strong mayor) with veto power over city council legislation. In larger cities the council may elect other executive positions as well, such as a council president and speaker.
The council generally functions as a parliamentary or congressional style legislative body, proposing bills, holding votes, and passing laws to help govern the city.
The role of the mayor in the council varies depending on whether or not the city uses council-manager government or mayor-council government, and by the nature of the statutory authority given to it by state law, city charter, or municipal ordinance.
There is also a mayor pro tem councilmember. In cities where the council elects the mayor for one year at a time, the mayor pro tem is in line to become the mayor in the next year. In cities where the mayor is elected by the city's voters, the mayor pro tem serves simply to serve as acting mayor in the absence of the mayor.
In some cities a different name for the municipal legislature is used. In San Francisco, for example, it is known as the Board of Supervisors because San Francisco is a consolidated city-county and the California constitution requires each county to have a Board of Supervisors.
Some cities also have a Junior City Council, in which youth of the city are elected into office and serve the city in the same ways the City Council does.

(Photo by Al Powers/Powers Imagery/Invision for CRA-Z-ART/AP Images)
LAS VEGAS, United States: The folks who brought you laptop trackpads, voice-activated smartphones and touch-screen tablets are dreaming up new ways for users to interact with technology through wearable, fashionable gadgets.
The high-tech industry used the International Consumer Electronics Show to display things like high-tech fingernails, handbags, clothing and accessories for the iPhone generation.
The "nanonail," for example, from a startup called Tech Tips, looks like a fingernail extension but is designed to work on smartphones and help avoid "fat finger" mistakes.
"The nail had to look nice, I didn't want women to have to compromise," said dermatologist Sri Vellanki, founder of the Montana-based company and inventor of the concept, who said she hopes to sell the product in a few months.
SunnyBag, a firm based in Austria, was showing its handbag equipped with flexible solar panels. The leather bag uses solar energy to charge a battery inside which can be used with a USB cord to recharge a smartphone.
"Our aim was to combine fashion with function," said product manager Kerstin Kurre. "Every woman and a lot of men carry a bag, and everyone has battery problems."
The surge in the use of smartphones which can be used as music players has stimulated the creation of headphones which double as fashion accessories. Some on display at CES are integrated into caps or scarves.
Some headphones were being marketed as fashion items including one from iHip promoted by permatanned reality show star Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi with splashes of glittery faux-diamond plastic and leopard print.
Italian-based hi-Fun appeared to want to take a page from James Bond with high-tech gloves which can be used to speak on a smartphone.
The user can answer a call by activation a button inside the gloves and placing the thumb in the ear and index finger in front of the mouth to speak.
The "hi-Call" devices look like ordinary knit gloves, but are equipped with wireless connectivity. "Bluetooth is an easy technology, and works with most devices," said Rick Sadofsky, a US distributor for the product.
CES also saw a spate of new wristwatch products, some powered by Android, which can access apps from a smartphone, some with emergency calling capacity.
The crowdfunded Pebble Technology watch can tell users when their bus is arriving, monitor one's sleep and send data back through their smartphones to the Internet.
Italian-based i'm SpA, which last year debuted what it called the world's first smart watch, unveiled a new version along with i'm Here, a GPS tracker that help mark out missing children, adventurers or adults with dementia.
Another wearable device came from US-based Vuzix, which offered a rival to Google Glasses with a device fitting around the forehead with a screen which connects to a smartphone.
But Vuzix's David Lock said another device in the works is a real pair of glasses which also allows users to visualize what is on a smartphone or other mobile device.
"We see that as the holy grail," Lock said.
CES also featured its own high-tech fashion show, with LED and illuminated dresses and corsets and accessories.
"We're about to see an entire new industry take off based on high tech fashion," said Robin Raskin, organizer of the show featured in the CES Living in Digital Times program.
"Fashion is soon to become personalized, elegant and useful and will remain a constant couture."

Your Mom would love me
Hows it going guys! I've been living in the DC area since 2004 and grew up outside of Roanoke in the mountains of SW Virginia so I have a funny accent and I love the outdoors. I'm outgoing, I laugh a lot and love to joke. I'm honest, intelligent, down to earth, compassionate, romantic, and a southern gentleman. I'd like to find a guy who loves to laugh and doesn't take himself too seriously. Family should be important as should honesty and integrity. I like masculine guys, particularly ones who like sports and the outdoors. A man's character is ultimately what matters most to me. While finding someone to spend the rest of my life with is the ultimate goal, in the mean time, I'd just like to meet someone to take things slow with, have a few dates, and let time take care of the rest. Cheers!!

I love to eat, I love to travel and I love the outdoors. And I love my car, a 68 Mustang.
I love adventure. One of the stupidest things I've ever done was also one of the most fun. In Aug 03, I hitchhiked across the Sinai peninsula from Elat, Israel to Cairo, Egypt with two Egyptian dudes in an old beat up diesel Mercedes. It was awesome.
Right now I'm reading Marcus Aurelius' "Meditations".

WonderWink offers a fashionable twist on the classic long-sleeve T-shirt. Extra-long sleeves create a modern look. The fabric has a touch of stretch that makes this an extra comfortable layer to wear under your scrubs.
I bought these 3 years ago to go under my scrubs and they're still holding up like new. They're so comfortable, I'm coming back to get more for everyday wear. The material feels nice and silky. I'm 5'2'' 110 lbs and the XS fits me well, not snug, but cozy.
so comfy and high quality. fits perfectly!
I really like this shirt it is thin and comfortable with stretch. able to slide sleeves up when I feel warm and pull back down when needed.
Love the weight and fit of these shirts. The fabric has a nice silky feel.
These wonder wink tops are great!

Waddell has high rating
This is in regard to newspaper accounts of alleged abuse at Waddell Nursing and Rehab Center.
I'm confident that your reporting accurately represented the facts as alleged. However, your article in terms of what it didn't say, unintentionally did a serious disservice to the facility, employees and residents.
HILLSVILLE -- Bidding farewell to the best runningback in school history wasn't an easy thing to do at Patrick County. But on the other hand, John Harris' absence has only shown how valuable Jacob Reynolds can be.
INDEPENDENCE -- One aspect of Grayson County football has already shown improvement over a year ago ee" the Blue Devils actually get a full compliment of home games this time around. A year after getting just four home dates on its 10-game schedule, Grayson County plays the first of five homers tonight when it hosts Hogoheegee District big boy Chilhowie in a nondistrict game at Bill Strong Field.
The rich just keep getting richer. Or in this case, the Richlands.
The Cycle.
INDEPENDENCE -- It's bound to happen everywhere, at some time or another.
HILLSVILLE -- It's not like Carroll County head coach Tom Hale is jacking around with a good thing. The Cavaliers' wing-T scheme produces a potent – if not flashy – ground game, with four main backs combining for more than 2,000 yards last year.
The Galax football team is hoping to get its bell rung. Frequently. By a lot of kids.
ELK CREEK -- The Great Diesel Truck Championship kicked off an exciting weekend of racing last Friday at Elk Creek Dragway, with the finals coming down to a Ford vs. Chevy match-up. Bobby Hash of Independence took the class win in his Chevy, running a 9.90 e.t. at 62 mph. Robbie Baker of Fries settled for a runner-up finish in his Ford with an 11.11 e.t.
Preparing to face a single wing offense is no easy thing to in and of itself. Doing so in Week 1 makes the task just that much more challenging. Add to that the fact that Northwood's offensive backfield is full of experience, and it gives Galax head coach Jared Van Acker cause for concern.

MCC Awarded Military Friendly School Title from G.I. Jobs magazine
G.I. Jobs, the premier magazine for military personnel transitioning into civilian life, has named Middlesex County College to the coveted Military Friendly Schools® list. The list honors the top 15 percent of colleges, universities and trade schools that are doing the most to embrace America's military service members, veterans and spouses and ensure their success on campus.
"Inclusion on the 2013 list of Military Friendly Schools shows Middlesex County College's commitment to providing a supportive environment for military students," said Sean Collins, director of G.I. Jobs. "As interest in education grows we're thrilled to provide the military community with transparent, world-class resources to assist in their search for schools."
The Military Friendly Schools website, www.militaryfriendlychools.com, features the list, as well as interactive and search tools to help military students find the best school to suit their unique needs and preferences. The 1,739 colleges, universities and trade schools on this year's list exhibit leading practices in the recruitment and retention of students with military experience.
David Brimmer, director of MCC's Center for Veterans Services, said inclusion on the list is an honor.
"Our center is committed to providing student veterans with all the tools they need to succeed at MCC," he said. "Our purpose is to help our student veterans make a smooth transition to college life, to make sure they use the educational benefits to which they are entitled, and to make their college experience rewarding and productive. We offer various methods of support to student veterans and current service members alike. And the center is a place where veterans can relax between classes and socialize with each other."
The list of Military Friendly Schools was compiled through extensive research and a data-driven survey of more than 12,000 schools approved by the Veterans Administration.

As the race for the White House tightens, county Republicans and political analysts believe a reinvigorated GOP base will help Mitt Romney carry Oktibbeha County, thereby wresting it from Democratic control.
In 2008, then-Democratic candidate Barack Obama won Oktibbeha County with only six votes separating him from his Republican challenger, John McCain. Former President George W. Bush carried the county in 2004 by a 2,000-vote margin.
Marty Wiseman, director of Mississippi State University's Stennis Institute of Government, said he believes the GOP will again regain control of the county because of waning Democratic excitement. In 2008, he said overwhelming Obama support helped drive the county to swing politically. This year, he said the pendulum has swung in favor of more and more voters disillusioned by the current administration.
This same GOP energy could help other Republicans to Oktibbeha County victories on Election Day.
"If I had to bet a chunk of my paycheck, I would say Mitt Romney will carry Oktibbeha County. The reason I say that is I don't know of another time when Democratic Party enthusiasm was as high as in 2008. By every measure, it's down several points from that time," Wiseman said. "Republican enthusiasm in the county is also up, and it's all about beating President Obama this time around. That's what driving the whole process, that huge anti-Obama sentiment. It's matched with the frustrations of Obama supporters, and the (Democrat) base is not that fired up."
Marnita Henderson, chairperson of the Oktibbeha County Republican Party, said local GOP organizers are working hard to ensure a county victory for Republicans in November. Last week, the county party held a fundraiser dinner which featured numerous GOP U.S. House and Senate candidates. Speakers, including U.S. Sen. Roger Wicker and U.S. Reps. Gregg Harper and Alan Nunnelee, all commented on the growing party support in Oktibbeha County. Henderson said the fundraiser — and the fact all tickets were sold out for this year's event — shows the county's growing Republican enthusiasm.
"We're working really hard for this election and we're really excited. We have a very supportive base filled with people who are taking a stand that have been quiet before," Henderson said. "We know Oktibbeha County went Democrat last time, but we're hoping to return it to the ranks of the majority of Mississippi. We're hoping for a strong turnout (on Nov. 6)."
Mississippi, a traditionally safe Republican state, last swung for a Democrat in 1976 when Jimmy Carter captured numerous Southern states. In 1992 and 1996, Bill Clinton's Southern strategy flipped other traditional GOP states, but it failed to swing Mississippi.
On a national level, Wiseman said Obama's poor performance in the first presidential debate could hurt him in regard to early voting. Almost 30 states allow some form of early voting, Wiseman said.
"That's why Obama picked a bad debate to loaf on. He needed to come off the blocks strong — Romney knew that. You don't know how much (early voting will occur) in the two-week interim between the presidential debates," Wiseman said. "There've been huge lines for these early voting polls, and we don't know exactly how much hay is in the barn. We could have a situation where 30-40 percent of a state's vote is already in before the final debate is held."
With fewer swing states in play this election season, the Romney campaign needs to hold traditional GOP-leaning states, flip Democratic gains made in Virginia and North Carolina, and attempt to pick up victories in the big three swing states — Ohio, Florida and Pennsylvania. The Obama camp is looking to hold the key gains it made in 2008 and hold its Western presence — Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado and Nevada.
"Prior to the debate, President Obama certainly didn't have the election locked down, but so much has changed since the debate. It's changed the mix of states in play," Wiseman said. "As of today, I think I would try to get Virginia and North Carolina, but then again things are looking better for Romney in Michigan and Iowa. Romney already gave up and pulled out of Michigan once, but he may go back in there."
When asked who he believed would win the general election, Wiseman stopped short of picking a candidate.
"When I was talking to someone on the Saturday before the first debate, I was asked if the election was held then, who would win. Then, I would have said Obama. If it was held right now, I would come a smidgen more to Romney winning, but then again we've got a long time to go," Wiseman said. "I think it's entirely possible that the electoral vote could reflect one winner, and the popular vote, another."
