Work site ban lifted at Etchegaray Farms
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. - A local farm can resume operations this morning.
Cal/OSHA has lifted an order stopping operations at all of Etchegaray Farm's outdoor work sites.
The order was lifted because Etchegaray Farms addressed the concerns over access to shade, high heat guidelines, and training on emergency procedures.
Operations had been stopped after a worker died in the field for unknown reasons.

This morning, the High Energy Astrophysics Division (aka HEAD) meeting kicks off in Newport, RI. What is this, you might ask? Well, the American Astronomical Society, or AAS, is the country's largest professional group for astronomers. And because it is so large, they have also created several subdivisions so that scientists of a particular bent can gather to talk about their areas of interest.
Ever since we publicized the "deepest note in the Universe" in 2003, I have admired outreach efforts that combine music and astronomy. These efforts have continued this summer and fall with a program by Don Lubowich, from Hofstra University, who has organised astronomy exhibits to be installed at a large number of music festivals and events. My small role in this program involved displaying images from the "From Earth to the Universe (FETTU)" exhibit on the first day of the Newport Folk Festival at the end of July, added to Don's astronomy banners which also included material from FETTU.
The International Year of Astronomy continues to reach new audiences.
Photographs from the "From Earth to the Universe" (FETTU) gallery have been viewed by people all over the world in a variety of venues since 2009. A tactile version of the FETTU exhibit, based on the book Touch the Invisible Sky by Grice, Steel and Daou, was also created in 2009 so people could explore the multi-wavelength universe non-visually, by touch.
On July 20, 2011 the tactile FETTU exhibition continued on to the National Federation of the Blind (NFB) headquarters in Baltimore, Maryland. The images were examined by students attending the National Federation of the Blind Youth Slam - an innovative STEM enrichment program for high school students who are blind or have low vision. Noreen Grice was a course instructor for the Youth Slam Space Track and was on-site at the exhibition. She verbally described the color images as students explored the tactile counterparts by touch. The tactile FETTU exhibition will now be on permanent display at the National Federation of the Blind and will hopefully continue to excite a new generation of science enthusiasts.

On the evening of July 9th, as the intense heat of the summer sun on the National Mall faded into a cool breeze and sunlight gave way to a pale waxing gibbous moonlight, crowds quickly gathered at the National Air and Space Museum's public observatory for the 2nd annual Astronomy Night on the National Mall event.
DC area Astronomy Night on the National Mall changed to Saturday July 9, 6-11 PM due to weather!
For those of you in or around the Nation's Capitol this post-July 4th week, be sure to take note of a free event happening in the heart of DC. On July 8th, from 6pm to 11pm, there will be all sorts of astronomy activities - including star gazing if weather permits – on the National Mall between 4th and 7th Streets.
That's the tag line for this year's World Science Festival (WSF), currently ongoing throughout New York City. As with the previous incarnations, this year's WSF will culminate in a big science party in and around Washington Square Park on Sunday, June 5th. Once again, "From Earth to the Universe" (FETTU) will be there to help spread a little bit of the cosmos across the asphalt. FETTU can be found just to the southwest of the big fountain in the middle of the park (see the map). The good folks from NY Skies will be on hand to answer any questions you might have on the images. For those in the NYC area this weekend, try to stop by and enjoy the Big Apple's big show for science.

This week, the American Astronomical Society held its bi-annual meeting in the fair city of Boston. Since those of us involved with Chandra spend most of our time on the other side of the river (meaning Cambridge), this is a chance to expand our horizons ever so slightly.
Of course, the big bonus of the AAS meeting is the ability to hear talks and mingle with people who don't work at our institution. It's a chance to catch up with old colleagues and meet new ones. In a world increasingly dominating by electronic communication, there's something irreplaceable about actually sitting across from someone in person.
We are very excited to announce the launch of a new – and yet somewhat familiar -- project. Today, "From Earth to the Solar System" officially opens. As the name implies, FETTSS (our new favorite acronym) is a direct descendent of the "From Earth to the Universe" project.
Today is the first official day of the American Astronomical Society meeting here in Seattle (Twitter user? The hashtag is #aas217). Right now, scientists are announcing the first rocky planet found by NASA's Kepler mission. Later on, there will be a black hole press conference -- including Chandra data! -- and then news from Fermi on the gamma-ray sky. While this news is being announced, here is a little behind-the-scenes information on this process.
What constitutes 'fun' for astronomers? Well, besides getting new data and results, it might be *talking* about their new data and results. A lot of astronomers will get a chance to do this next week at the twice-annual American Astronomical Society meeting. This one is happening in Seattle, WA, where, in addition to rain, many new and exciting discoveries are expected. Chandra will have new stories coming out on Wednesday and Thursday so keep an eye open for those here. We'll be posting more information as we go, but in the meantime, here's an official announcement about next week's meeting:

HONG KONG, Nov 15 (Reuters) - These are some of the leading stories in Hong Kong newspapers on Thursday. Reuters has not verified these stories and does not vouch for their accuracy.
-- China National Cereals, Oils and Foodstuffs Corp (Cofco), the mainland's largest food trader and processor, expects the injection of assets from its property companies into Hong Kong Parkview Group will take time due to strict scrutiny by mainland and Hong Kong regulators, according to Cofco Chairman Ning Gaoning. (http://link.reuters.com/sym93t)
-- Media tycoon Jimmy Lai is expected to close the 17.5 billion Taiwan dollar (${esc.dollar}602.58 million) deal to sell Next Media's print and TV holdings in Taiwan as planned on Nov. 17. The Formosa Plastics Group will take over as controlling shareholder of the buying consortium to appease concerns raised by Taiwan's Financial Supervisory Commission, according to a source involved in the negotiations. (http://link.reuters.com/tym93t)
-- Hong Kong is the most optimistic market in the Asia-Pacific region in terms of its luxury spending outlook, but the mainlanders still top the charts in terms of spending power and future growth potential, according to a MasterCard Worldwide survey. (http://link.reuters.com/vym93t)
-- The Chinese Gold and Silver Exchange Society plans to launch a spot silver trading service in the first half of next year to meet growing local investor interest, said President Haywood Cheung. (http://link.reuters.com/wym93t)
-- Hong Kong's five major developers, including Cheung Kong (Holdings) and Sun Hung Kai Properties, plan to launch 17,650 units in 2013, 50 percent more than this year, despite the recent imposition of cooling measures. (http://link.reuters.com/xym93t)
-- Hong Kong Financial Secretary John Tsang said the city has neither the need nor the intention to change the Linked Exchange Rate System, which is the most appropriate system that serves the long-term interests of Hong Kong.

A Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals in the United States yesterday upheld the conviction of Farouk Abdulmutallab, a Nigerian underwear bomber who was sentenced to multiple life sentences over his attempt to blow up a Detroit-bound American aircraft on Christmas Day in 2009.
According to court records, Abdulmutallab, who represented himself during the trial, stated that he felt receiving representation from a federal public defender would not be in his best interest. After one day of the trial, he entered a "guilty plea" to all eight counts in the indictment and was sentenced to four consecutive life sentences plus 30 years and 240 months.
In an appeal, Abdulmutallab challenged the court's decision to allow him to represent himself as well as the admission of several statements he gave while being treated at the University of Michigan Hospital, his competency to enter his guilty plea and whether or not his sentences were constitutional.
But the appeals court panel said the trial court was not obliged to conduct a competency hearing before accepting Abdulmutallab's plea, saying that the pre-trial record indicated he was able to assist in his own defence before entering the plea.
Similarly, the appeals court rejected Abdulmutallab's claim that a competency hearing should have been ordered before allowing him to proceed without an attorney, citing the fact that standby lawyer appointed by the trial court to assist Abdulmutallab took part in the vast majority of proceedings prior to his guilty plea.
The court dismissed his challenge to the admission of statements he gave while hospitalised, saying that Abdulmutallab lost the right to challenge the admission when he pleaded guilty.
"We will not address the merits of Abdulmutallab's argument, as he waived any right to challenge the suppression of his statements when he entered the guilty plea," Judge David McKeague wrote in the unanimous opinion.
The court also concluded that the sentences Abdulmutallab received were within the boundaries of federal law and the US Constitution.
Judge McKeague then said, "Abdulmutallab attempted to detonate a bomb on a plane with 289 passengers. He may have been the only person harmed, but that is only because his bomb failed to properly work. These facts, and the fact that Abdulmutallab's sentence was within the guideline range and proportional, inform this court that his sentence is not 'cruel and unusual' punishment."

FORT WAYNE — A $5,000 reward is being offered for information about three gunmen who forced their way into a northeast-side credit union Thursday, battering several employees and firing weapons inside the building before fleeing with cash, police said.
Shortly after 8 a.m., Fort Wayne police were called to ProFed Credit Union at 6448 Stellhorn Road, where an employee told police she was ambushed as she arrived for work and was forced inside the building at gunpoint.
Three robbers wearing sweatshirts with hoods pulled over their heads entered the credit union then battered and bound three employees at their hands and ankles, Fort Wayne police said.
Before fleeing with an undisclosed amount of money, the men fired their weapons inside the building. None of the bank employees required medical attention at the scene as a result of the battery, police said.
No customers were inside the credit union, which had not yet opened, but a customer was waiting outside at the drive-up window, according to police, and saw the three gunmen flee from the rear of the building. The customer called 911 and reported the robbers ran to the south, police said.
A police dog tried to track the robbers but led officers behind the credit union into a residential area and lost the scent, police said.
The case remains under investigation by the Northeast Indiana Bank Robbery Task Force.
A reward of up to $5,000 is being offered by the Indianapolis Office of the FBI for information that leads to the arrest of the robbers.
Those with information are urged to contact the Fort Wayne FBI office at 426-5331 or, during the weekend and evenings, the Indianapolis Office of the FBI at 317-595-4000.
Fort Wayne Community Schools said 11 schools were advised to be on alert and bring students inside the buildings quickly as they arrived and have extra staff on watch.
Snider High School, Jefferson Middle School and Croninger Elementary School went on lockdown. Snider lifted the lockdown after 20 to 30 minutes, while Croninger and Jefferson were locked down for 60 to 90 minutes, the district said.
Thursday�s holdup is Fort Wayne�s 13th bank or credit union robbery in 2012.

THE MMD is confident of retaining the Mufumbwe parliamentary seat in the by-election on November 8.
MMD campaign manager Newton Samakai said in an interview yesterday that his team had done enough ground work and was sure that party candidate, Standford Mulusa would carry the day.
Mr Samakai complained though that MMD was not being given enough time to campaign because Republican Vice-President Guy Scott was also holding campaign rallies in the constituency to drum up support for Patriotic Front (PF) candidate, Steven Masumba.
He said the opposition party was not being protected, claiming that some MMD cadres had been beaten or threatened by PF members in the presence of the police.
But PF campaign manager Jean Kapata disputed claims by the MMD that there were cases of violence perpetrated by her supporters.
Ms Kapata said in a separate interview that the PF was more interested in discussing development than engaging in petty issues.
The MMD has since challenged North-Western Police chief Eugene Sibote to visit Mufumbwe.
"We have preached to our members not to engage in violence and this is working well and as MMD we do not want any violence," he said.
Mr Samakai said the PF would not win the election because the Government had not fulfilled promises made prior to the September 2011 tripartite elections.
"People here will never be cheated again by the PF, their memories are still fresh, they still remember the promises during previous elections.
Words of mouth would not change their thinking they want actual work to be done," Mr Samakai said.

NICOSIA: Trying to quell public anger, Cyprus' president promised that two investigations into an explosion that killed 13 people at a naval base would determine responsibility from "the lowest to the highest level."
But Dimitris Christofias didn't specify Thursday how high that responsibility would reach, speaking for the first time since visiting the site briefly Monday after the explosion."I assure you that responsibility will be apportioned and will be assumed," he said in a nationally televised address.
The Cyprus defense minister and military chief have already resigned over the island's worst military accident in decades, which also knocked out a key power station.
Christofias Thursday appointed legal expert Polys Polyviou to conduct an independent probe into the blast, which will run in conjunction with another, police-led criminal investigation. Greek and French experts are assisting police investigators.
Many have accused the government of negligence over the way dozens of gunpowder-filled containers that detonated Monday had been stored since being confiscated in 2009 from an Iran-chartered ship the U.N. said had breached a ban on Iranian arms exports.
Thousands marched in Nicosia Tuesday to protest the blast, and police arrested 20 people during clashes as some broke into the presidential palace grounds. Another protest is planned for Thursday evening.
Christofias said "the full investigation and unraveling of the tragedy" will help restore shaken trust in the state.
But the communist-rooted president warned against "nationalist, extreme right-wing groups" exploiting public pain to provoke violence.
Christofias said that the government still has to grapple with very complicated reunification talks with breakaway Turkish Cypriots as well as prepare to take over the European Union's six-month rotating presidency in July 2012.
Greece and Israel are supplying power generators to help Cypriots cope with power outages.

|Tutorial: Objects
Spin is an 'object-oriented lite' programming language. I like it because it eschews some of the more esoteric concepts of OOP but maintains most of the productivity gains. In the blinky light tutorial we went through the syntax of Spin, and in this walkthrough you'll see how objects work and how you can use them.
There's also a video tutorial on using objects with servo control as an example;
What is an object?
An object is: "a collection of methods and/or supporting data in a .spin file." Let me break that statement down for you;
You have a 'Top Object File', and program execution begins with the first PUB method in your top object file. The Propeller Tool has tabs so you can have multiple objects (.spin files) open at the same time. Your top object file is simply the active tab when you compiled your code.
the Keyboard_Demo.spin file is our top object file because it was the active tab when I compiled my code. It refers to 2 other objects, TV_Terminal.spin and Keyboard.spin. And TV_Terminal.spin refers to 2 other objects, TV.spin and Graphics.spin.
Why use other objects?
Your program doesn't have to be split up into multiple objects. Many simple programs shouldn't be split into multiple objects, too. So when should you use other objects? When it simplifies code re-use and debugging.
How to use objects
1 - Tell the Propeller tool you're going to refer to a method in another object. In your top object file, add an OBJ Block. You tell the Propeller tool to include the object with the syntax: name : file. In the instance below, the name for the first object is term. And the file tv_terminal.spin. The Propeller Tool will search through the active directory and 'c:/program files/Parallax/Propeller Tool' for a file with that name. If it doesn't find the file, it will throw up an error.
2 - Run a method in the other object with the syntax: name.method. Look at the object you've included and you should see several public methods. To execute the start method in the term object, your code would be: term.start. If the Propeller Tool doesn't find a method with the name start in that object, it will throw an error on compilation.
How objects aren't just a collection of methods
Variables declared in an object's VAR block(s) are only available to methods in the same object. There are some ways to get around this, though.
PRI methods can only be called from within their object. They cannot be called directly from another object.
In the OBJ block, if you do 'PWM[2] : 'PWM', you've declared 2 instances of the PWM object (PWM[0] and PWM[1]). Each object will have the same program code (PUB, PRI, DAT), but different VAR code.
Values declared in an object's CON block(s) can be read with the hash; objectname#Convalue. If your display object has a contstant called 'pin', you can read that from another object with display#pin. Remember that CONstants cannot be changed in runtime.

Excellent product and did exactly what it promised. I have used the pen for around two months on two badly affected toenails and now the new nail is working through, the pen has obviously worked very well. I recommend it as a good product which is easy to use without any mess.

There isn't much attention paid to prescription drug abuse, except perhaps when a Hollywood star dies from an overdose. However, it is estimated that nearly one in five Americans has used prescription drugs for nonmedicinal reasons, and 15 percent may be abusing prescription drugs. This silent epidemic has become the leading cause of addiction.
This week, the Maryland Chapter of the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence and the University of Maryland Medical Center sponsored the annual Tuerk Conference, a gathering of 1,200 health professionals working in the field of addictions to focus on treatment and prevention of prescription drug abuse. Confronting and debunking the common myth that prescription drugs are less deadly and less addictive was one of the items on the agenda.

On civil liberties, meet the new boss, same as the old boss. A majority of Americans believe that President Barack Obama's record balancing national security with civil liberty is about the same or worse than that of President George W. Bush.
According to a poll conducted by The Hill, 37 percent of voters believe that Obama is a worse civil liberties President than Bush was and 15 percent say the two are "about the same." About one in five people identifying themselves as Democrats said the current President has failed to improve civil rights. Twenty-three percent of people self-identified as "liberals" shared a similar view.
The poll comes on the heels of a Justice Department leak of a white paper which outlines the Administration's justification of acting as judge, jury and executioner against Americans deemed to be "imminent threats."
The Hill poll found that 31 percent of respondents believe the government should not be able to kill its own citizens without due process, 41 percent said the government should have the right to kill citizens deemed terrorists.
A recent analysis by The New York Times suggests that the President is spared criticism that was once heaped upon Bush because he is a Democrat: "For four years, Mr. Obama has benefited at least in part from the reluctance of Mr. Bush's most virulent critics to criticize a Democratic president. Some liberals acknowledged in recent days that they were willing to accept policies they once would have deplored as long as they were in Mr. Obama's hands, not Mr. Bush's."

Twin Peaks, 1990-1991The beheading of Carnivale may be fresher in the mind to many, but those truly in the know will recognise David Lynch's Twin Peaks as the prematurely aborted series to end them all. The oddball director's unlikely prime-time champion somehow struck a massive chord with the '90s wherever it was aired. The murder mystery at its core as compulsive as it was surreal, but it was also ultimately its undoing...
When the killer at large was revealed half-way into Season 2, 'Peaksmania' floundered in the face of increasingly silly (silly without substance, that is) story lines and bam, it was axed -- on a cliffhanger curtain-call, no less.

An Evening for Heroes: Photos & Videos

An Evening for Heroes photos can be viewed on our

A total of 84 emergency first responders and medical professionals were honored May 3 at the second annual "An Evening for Heroes," which not only raised awareness of the outstanding emergency response system in northwest Louisiana but also topped last year's inaugural event to become the most successful fundraiser ever for LSU Health Shreveport.
The LSU Health Sciences Foundation sponsored the evening that celebrated the rescues and recoveries of a young medical student named Emily Davis and a young mother, Susanna Moss. Both women were severely injured in car accidents. A captivated audience watched their stories unfold in videos produced by CRM Studios.
The 84 honorees included LSU medical staff along with Benton and Minden EMS personnel. They received Hero medals, a standing ovation and emotional thank you's from each of the young women. Chancellor Robert Barish emphasized that the honorees represented thousands more in the EMS system —from 911 operators to neurosurgeons — who work as a team to put lives and dreams back together.
A sold-out audience of 880, including dignitaries from city and state government and the LSU system office, filled the Shreveport Convention Center. Attendees included Senator Greg Tarver, Senator Sherry Buffington. Representative Barbara Norton and Representative Jeff Thompson, Bossier Mayor Lo Walker, Shreveport, Councilmen Oliver Jenkins and Jeff Everson.
They listened as emcee, Sheriff Steve Prator, reinforced the vital role of the LSU Level 1 Trauma Center in the community. Lifetime Sponsor Fred Moffitt, who has received lifesaving care of his own at LSU, was happy to see the spotlight on the health sciences center. "It was an excellent program and good for the medical center," he said. "It is a great institution."
Willis Knighton and Chase were title sponsors and many other organizations and individuals contributed to the event. Lynn and Armand Roos were co-chairs with Jenny Barish.

How fat is your car?
Posted: 20 May 2010
We finish by liberally applying gaffer tape to the 207's shut lines, because... well, we're not sure quite why, but it feels like a suitably DIY and motorsporty thing to do, and shepherd Stig to the start line again. Before he sets off for a lightweight lap of the TGPHC, we take a second to admire our mighty efforts.
We are masters of engineering. We have created a 207 touring car, an uncompromised, raw monster deserving of a place in TG's Lightweights Edition. It is snappily christened the 207 TG GTI Superleggera Sport RS, and we ready the stopwatch for Stig's timed lap and the subsequent celebrations of our modifying genius. Before you start complaining that conditions might have changed, they haven't: the track is still sopping wet and strewn with deep puddles.

'Game of Thrones' star Richard Madden could be Prince Charming in 'Cinderella'Add to Favorites | Game of Thrones
Richard Madden might be transitioning from playing the King of the North, Robb Stark, on "Game of Thrones" to playing Prince Charming in Kenneth Branagh's upcoming live action "Cinderella" movie. That should make his onscreen "Game of Thrones" wife, Oona Chaplin, very happy indeed.
/Film is reporting that Madden is one of the names Branagh is considering for the Prince Charming role. Cate Blanchett has been signed on to play Cinderella's wicked stepmother in the live action Disney movie for over a year.
It's the role of Cinderella that's proved tricky for Branagh and Disney to cast. Initially Emma Watson had been offered the part, but when she declined it seems like Branagh decided to look at actresses who were less well-known. Bella Heathcote, Lily James and Margot Robbie are reportedly testing for the role this week, with the expectation that the part of Cinderella will go to one of them.
When Zap2it spoke to Chaplin on the "Game of Thrones" Season 3 premiere red carpet, she confirmed that Madden is in fact as dreamy in real life as he is in the hit HBO show. "I'm semi in love with him," she admitted. "I think he already knows. It's quite embarrassing. He's like, 'Get off me, woman.'" Madden is currently dating "Doctor Who" companion Jenna-Louise Coleman.

Cordotomy is usually done percutaneously with fluoroscopic guidance while the patient is under local anesthesia. Open cordotomy, which requires a laminectomy, is often risky for patients with poor medical conditions, but may be required if percutaneous cordotomy is not feasible or an attempt has failed.
Cordotomy is now used exclusively for pain due to cancer where treatment to level 3 of the World Health Organisation analgesic ladder has proved ineffective. Cordotomy is especially indicated for pain due to mesothelioma (asbestos-related lung cancer).
A number of alternative surgical procedures have evolved in the 20th century; these include:
"Commissural myelotomy", with limited rostro-caudal range; it produces bilateral analgesia (Armour 1927; Hitchcock 1970; 74).
"Limited midline myelotomy" for the treatment of pelvic visceral cancer pain (Gildenberg and Hirshberg, 1984).
Recently, Dr. Elie D. Al-Chaer and his colleagues discovered a new pathway in the spinal cord relatively specific for visceral pain - the pain that originates from visceral organs such as the colon, the bladder and the pancreas. The new pathway is located in the posterior columns, traditionally believed to mediate light touch and kinesthesia. This discovery led to a paradigm shift in our understanding of pain pathways and in the approach to treat intractable visceral pain. As a result, "punctate midline myelotomy" was introduced around the world as a new surgical procedure for the treatment of visceral pain residual to cancer and refractory to conventional treatment.

One hesitates to question A. C. Grayling on his own ground, but there seems to be a crucial gap in his argument from mirror neurons to morality (3 May, p 50). He says the discovery of mirror neurons shows us that our capacity to understand and "recognise what helps or distresses others" is built into the very structure of our brain. But he moves straight from that perfectly reasonable point to saying: "This means that the ultimate basis for moral judgement is hard-wired."
Knowing, thanks to neurology, that we all know how others feel is better than merely believing it, as we have done for millennia. However, knowing what another feels has no direct relationship to knowing how one should act towards him or her; if it did, surely we would have had a universal morality long ago.
Hovering somewhere in the background seems to be the idea that ...

Mariah Carey Talks To Barbara Walters About Music, Motherhood And Nicki Minaj
Mariah Carey, who is expected to release an album sometime early on in the New Year, sat down with Barbara Walters on Nightline to discuss her new album, new twins and highly publicized feud with Nicki Minaj.
Regarding the new album, Carey was relatively quiet preferring to focus on her upcoming season as judge on American Idol.
In response to Minaj's verbal threats, Carey said she hired extra security:
"I just felt it was the appropriate thing to do. Sitting there on the road with two babies, I'm not going to take any chances."
Carey notes that she and her kids celebrated a very special first birthday, trekking to Paris: "[Husband Nick Cannon] is just as festive as I am," Carey said. "I'm very, very festive, and he kind of almost trumps me there."

Gilbert Arenas is passing out more than advice to new Washington Wizards teammate Nick Young.
Young, the former USC and Cleveland High of Reseda standout, said Sunday before participating in the L.A. Stars All-Star Celebrity Basketball Game at Galen Center that Arenas sold him his six-bedroom home in Northern Virginia.
"Gil passed it down to me, Young said. "Its pretty big, more than I expected. I expected to rent at first, but Gil wouldnt have any of that. Its nice to own my first house.
Youngs parents are still looking for the right place in the Los Angeles area before moving out of the small apartment they have lived in for 27 years.
Arenas, another San Fernando Valley product who went to Grant High in Van Nuys, has taken Young under his wings.
"Having someone like Gil to show me around is helping me out a lot, Young said. "Weve practiced together for the past couple of weeks and hes already shown me like one or two moves that Im going to steal from him, but I cant give them out yet.

September 10, 2007
Total Build Time: 497 hours
Things have been moving pretty quick at KR Performance and Restorations now that our FFR Roadster project has been placed on the front burner. In just a few short weeks most of our body modifications we've requested have been implemented and we're just a few short weeks away from spraying color. Since our last diary entry Bob and Aaron have finished all of the body seam work, including grinding, filling, and sanding of the seams. In addition to the seam work we asked the KR team to beef up the taillight mounting pad so the taillights would not extend over the edge of the body. Another trick many builders perform is to "roll" the cockpit edges with filler to give the body a more accurate look (the original aluminum bodies were rolled over the frame edges). Finally, the body received a coating of spray poly filler, which helps reduce block sanding effort and time. KR Performance and Restoration even brought our semi-finished project out to their local Mustang club's show to show off their hard work. We can't wait to get the project back to the same ourselves.

Your Guide to Virginia's 2015 "Historic Garden Week"
Coinciding with the peak of Virginia's springtime color, the 87th Annual Historic Garden Week (April 18 – 25, 2015) offers a rare opportunity to visit Virginia's most gracious homes and lavish, hidden gardens. This 8-day, statewide event showcases more than two hundred fifty unforgettable gardens and beautiful houses sparkling with over 2,000 fabulous flower arrangements created by more than 3,400 Garden Club of Virginia volunteers.
Since its beginning in 1929, Historic Garden Week has raised some 17 million dollars for the restoration of public gardens across Virginia, including Mount Vernon, Monticello, and the grounds of the Executive Mansion in Richmond. This year, there will be 41 separate tours throughout Virginia over eight consecutive days. Known as "America's Largest Open House", it is the largest ongoing volunteer effort in Virginia.
Historic Garden Week – Charlottesville Area
The rich cultural heritage of Thomas Jefferson's era is on display in Charlottesville's portion of 2015 Historic Garden Week, as several buildings on the tour reflect the influence of Jefferson's classical architectural ideals. Several of the featured properties are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, and much of the land is still held in large farms, as it has been since the 18th century.
- Morven. A majestic three-story brick manor house built in the late Georgian/Federal styles. Dating to 1820, the house was once owned by Thomas Jefferson. In 2001, the 7,378- acre estate was given to the University of Virginia Foundation by the late John Kluge. The extraordinary gardens boast a number of interesting varieties, including a pair of Osage orange trees, a state champion Chinese Chestnut, and a lovely dove tree. Read more here.
- Albemarle / Charlottesville. Close to the city-center of Charlottesville, this portion of the tour showcases several unique properties, ranging from restored Gillette gardens; to a modern, private home which seamlessly integrates the landscape with native and non-native specimens in colorful, expansive beds; to stately 19th and 20th century manor homes, representing the essence of refined country living in Central Virginia. Read more about this portion of the tour right here.
- Orange County. Highlighting three private homes, as well as the Barboursville Ruins, this garden-focused tour notes the evolution of farming and architecture along the Spotswood Trail near James Madison's Montpelier. Tours of Barboursville Vineyards are also available. Learn more here.
- Tuckahoe Plantation. Located less than 45 minutes from Prospect Hill in Goochland County, this tour of the boyhood home of Thomas Jefferson showcases the most complete plantation layout in North America dating from the early 18th century, and includes the schoolhouse where Jefferson attended classes. More information is available here.
What Is It:
An 8-day statewide tour of 191 majestic homes and exquisite gardens. Begun in 1929, more than 17 million dollars has been raised to preserve or restore some of Virginia's most-cherished historic landmarks. The Charlottesville portion of the tour will showcase numerous historic properties.
Dates / Schedule (for Charlottesville Area tours only):
Morven Estate: Saturday, April 18th, 10 am – 5 pm
Orange County: Saturday, April 18th, 10 am – 5 pm
Tuckahoe Plantation: Wednesday, April 22nd – Friday, April 24th, 10 am – 5:30 pm
Albemarle/Charlottesville: Sunday, April 19th, 12 – 5 pm; Monday, April, 20th, 10 am – 5 pm
Saturday, April 18, 2015 through Friday, April 24th, 2015
Locations / Admission Fees:
Morven Estate, 791 Morven Drive, Charlottesville, VA 22902, $15 advanced, $20 onsite.

Tour ticket prices vary by location and range from $15 – $50 per tour. Advance tickets can be purchased online here or at various local outlets. Tickets are also available at each tour location on the day of the event (not all tour locations can accept credit cards).
What Else You Should Know:
This is a driving tour of properties throughout the Charlottesville and Central Virginia area. Most of the homes and gardens are not handicapped-accessible due to multiple staircases, narrow unpaved roads and uneven walkways. Once onsite, you will do a good bit of walking, so wear comfortable walking shoes.
Neither smoking, pets, nor photography is allowed inside the homes. Children are welcome, but those under age 17 must be accompanied by an adult. The tours occur rain or shine, except for Morven (in the event of rain, Morven tours will be cancelled. Tickets, however, are not refundable).

'Amazing Raise' to increase charitable giving to local nonprofits
Citizen Staff Reports 09/17/12
The Community Foundation's 'Amazing Raise' will return Thursday with $113,000 up for grabs. The unique online giving event is designed to empower the people of metro Richmond to come together and raise as much money as possible for local nonprofits in just 36 hours. This year, 450 organizations working in areas ranging from arts and education to homelessness and health care are eligible to participate.
The top three organizations with the most unique donations of $50 or more will receive $20,000, $15,000 and $10,000 respectively – doubled from 2011. Grants of $2,500 each will be awarded to "early birds" or the first 15 organizations to reach at least 50 donations of $50 or more. Mini-contests will help spur giving during certain time periods (Sunset Special or Procrastinator's Prize) or to signify certain achievements, such as Most Improved or Long Distance Donor.
Last year, the Amazing Raise generated nearly 6,500 donations and $630,000 in donations and incentive prizes. A total of 270 organizations received at least one donation, with Church Hill Activities and Tutoring taking home the top prize with 382 unique gifts.

Deepika Padukone's fluid and energy-packed dance in the "Nagada sang dhol" song from "Goliyon Ki Raasleela Ram-Leela" has been widely appreciated but she doubts if she can recreate the grandeur of the number sans the film's director Sanjay Leela Bhansali.
She says the song's popularity was the "least expected of the lot".
"There were other songs in the album which we thought would become popular... this was the underdog," Deepika told IANS.
"In fact, I am doing a show where I am expected to recreate that magic but I don't think I'll be able to do that if I don't have Sanjay to direct," she said.
Deepika is slated to perform at the Temptation Reloaded show in Dubai Sunday with stars like Shah Rukh Khan and Madhuri Dixit.
On the Bollywood front, she has completed Homi Adajania's English language film "Finding Fanny".
"It should be ready to release soon.
"I am also doing 'Happy New Year' with Abhishek Bachchan and Shah Rukh, all fun boys to work with. I am also looking forward to start Imtiaz's film with Ranbir," said Deepika, who has been on a roll with her box office successes this year.
Planning a holiday sometime soon now?
"I am sure I can squeeze in some family time, it's always welcome," said the 27-year-old, who recently made time to attend a friend's engagement in her hometown Bangalore.

@ady148: you've made your point. you don't like Deepika. we get it. bashing her in every article on IF with idiotic names makes you look like the idiot. I'm a fan of both Katrina and Deepika. Frankly speaking, every time you start to criticize Deepika in a childish way, such as calling her a giraffe/s**t, you're making Kat look bad.
Love u Deepika Padukone
u rocked in nagada song
@ady no one is interesed in ur opinion go to ur kat's profile and comment in that
love deepika u are amazing dear...
you were absolutely stunning in "nagada sang" No matter what people say. the amount of dedication and focus you put in the entire movie and especially that song has been appreciated.
there may be many who put you down, but I dont think they realize how big of a job it is to act so intensely. These 'criticizers" sit behind their computers on their fat asses and mock the rest of the world knowing that they cant do quarter of the shit you do.
I wish i had some of your passion. I cannot wait to see you in your future projects.

Trauma Studies Concentration FAQs
Q. Can you tell me more about the Trauma Studies Concentration?
The Trauma Studies curriculum is designed to provide foundational knowledge of the impact of traumatic stress on human functioning as well as an overview of evidence-based strategies for preventing and treating traumatic stress reactions. Students then apply this knowledge base in practicing trauma-informed counseling skills with case material, in peer role plays, and finally with actual clients who have trauma histories.
Q. How many courses do I need to take in the Trauma Studies Concentration?
The concentration is comprised of three required courses and two relevant elective courses. The three required courses are:
- CNSL 531 Trauma Across the Lifespan
- CNSL 541 Crisis Intervention and Trauma Treatment Methods
- CNSL 551 Grief and Loss Counseling Theory & Practice
View the Course Catalog for Course Descriptions.
Students may choose the two electives according to their areas of desired clinical application. The Counseling Psychology Department offers a number of electives for clinical work with specific populations (e.g., children/adolescents, families, clients with particular mental health problems) or utilizing specific intervention methods (e.g., psychopharmacology, relaxation methods). (List of department electives). Thus students in the Trauma Studies Concentration can choose electives according to their areas of desired clinical focus, applying their trauma knowledge base to those populations /methods. (This is consistent with the emerging paradigm of "trauma informed" mental health practice). The student is then responsible to document the relevance of the elective courses chosen as well as how he/she worked with the instructor to tailor the coursework toward Trauma Studies learning goals. The designation "Trauma Studies Concentration" will appear on the graduate's transcript along with the master's degree.
Q. How long does it take to complete the MA in Counseling degree with Trauma Studies Concentration?
Students can complete the degree in the same time frame as the general MA in (Clinical) Counseling program: three years (full-time) or four years (part-time).
Q. How long does it take to complete the Trauma Studies Concentration if I am a non-degree student?
A non-degree student can complete the three required courses in two to three semesters, depending on when one starts. Non-degree students needing post-masters credits are accepted on a rolling basis. More information.
Q. What advantages do I have when I complete the Trauma Studies Concentration?
Expertise in Trauma Studies can enhance your professional development and enable you to compete with others in the field of clinical practice. In the field of mental health treatment, it is now recognized that for those seeking services, trauma history is more the rule than the exception. SAMSHA (the federal government's national Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration) concludes: "Although exact prevalence estimates vary, there is a consensus in the field that most consumers of mental health services are trauma survivors and that their trauma experiences help shape their responses to outreach and services." Accordingly, SAMSHA has established NCTIC, the National Center for Trauma-Informed Care, "a technical assistance center dedicated to building awareness of trauma-informed care and promoting the implementation of trauma-informed practices in programs and services." http://www.samhsa.gov/nctic/
Thus, students wishing to become professional counselors will be well prepared for clinical practice if their training includes knowledge, skills, and experience in mental health traumatology.

Let's get one thing straight before I launch into something that is inevitably going to be quite diatribey. I am not a BBC-loving lefty who thinks you can't touch the national institutions that made this country great, etc. I am a Tory-voting borderline market fundamentalist who, in principle, would not agree with the idea of distorting the entertainment market by demanding money from people in order to ensure a company could do whatever they wanted without having to worry about whether or not it was any good.
However – and this however has a big butt – I know a good thing when I see it. More importantly, I am not alone. Clearly, despite my boring views on political economy, I cannot pretend that the BBC fails in every area. On the contrary, by providing me from the age of 3 with Top Gear, HIGNFY, Parkinson, Tomorrow's World, Election Night specials (thinking aloud here), all of Attenborough, Buzzcocks – I could go on – and, more relevantly, Radios 1 to 6, it has been nothing less than my third parent and now, perhaps, fifth housemate. This is not sentimentality (I'm a Tory remember), it's testiment to the consistent quality of their output.
Now, I have been known to rant about the decline in standards due to some of the appalling choices they've made across the board of late which mostly leave me staring incredulously at the TV wondering what the hell happened. In fact I agree with and/or accept some of the cuts proposed in the strategic review; the BBC does crowd out competition in several areas and doesn't need to be so prevalent in the sector. Also, during the explosive hate-circus that was expenses/salary-gate I was fairly amazed at some of the figures bouncing around the bank accounts of Thompson and friends. But none of this matters here. I say it only to outline my position before I start chanting, with Twitter hashtags, #SAVE 6MUSIC.
The decision to axe 6 Music is based on two simple premises: that the ratio of cost:audience is not good enough to sustain it and, were they to treble its audiences, due to their demographic they would be in direct competition with… er, the competition, which is contrary to EU Law etc etc. Now, given my political pursuations outlined above, I would generally agree: competition is hugely important in all market places. In The Times' double-page spread on Friday (26th) they had a compelling graphic of the most listened-to stations, showing Radio 2 at the top with a 'weekly reach' of 14.8m, Radio 1 at 12.8, right down to Smash Hits at 1.5m. 6 Music doesn't even feature as it 'reaches' only 695,000 people. But wait, if it's about cost and demographic competition, what about Radio 1? There is no way that a station with an output as eclectic as 6's can have as strongly identifiable a demographic as Radio 1, or even 2. The Times' says the average listener age is 35. Well, the average age of the population is 39 so you can make your own minds up about how supportive that statistic is of the BBC's argument.
Surely, rather than cutting those stations that don't reach The Times' listener reach graphic they should be cutting the ones at the top? I can only assume they won't get rid of Radio 1 because the outcry would be huge; it is perhaps too big to fail. The point is, the competition/cost principle doesn't hold up. Rather it is quite plainly the case that if a station is getting 'enough' listeners, regardless of what it's doing to the competition, it stays.
So, hold on a minute, you would be right to say; isn't the adherence to chasing ratings and making sure your station is financially viable the guiding principle of a commercial enterprise? Indeed, does not The Times' headline for said double-page spread read, 'The empire cuts back as Auntie is told to stop chasing ratings'? (It does.) This is why, despite holding closely arguments about cutting other things instead, I set that particular rant aside. Such opinions are highly subjective. My point is much wider: that the whole point, the sodding raison d'etre of the BBC, is to make the best use of the luxury of not having to worry about ratings but, instead, worrying about quality of output. The BBC has much experience of measuring such things, so why not put that to use with 6 Music rather than brushing them aside because their numbers aren't high enough? As any academic would tell you, this problem demands a qualitative, not quantitative approach.
If distorting the market to achieve higher quality of output was in the forefront of the minds in charge, 6 Music would be safer than the concept of cool in the hands of Jarvis Cocker. At the heart of the save 6 Music protest, and what makes it a wider cause for concern with respect to future decisions, is the fact that this is clearly no longer the case. If things like 6 Music are not wanted, I fail to see the purpose of the BBC in its entirity. Here's hoping I'm wrong.
I can't end on that dispondent note though. There is some hope in the unlikely shape of the commercial sector. If I were a budding entrepreneur I would set up a new station called '6 Music', offer all the current presenters whatever money they want – given their dedication I doubt this would be commercially uncompetitive – and simply airlift the station out of the misguided clutches of the BBC and into the private sphere. Yes there would be advertising, but there would also be billboard and TV promotions which would, in time, yield the listener base 6 Music so richly deserves. Here's hoping I'm right.

Utility Vehicle Helps Keep Kids in School
3400XL helps patrol new high school and takes on other jobs, too.
3400XL utility vehicle helps patrol Westminster High School.
More than 2,000 students walked into the new Westminster High School on the north side of the Denver metro last fall. The 40-acre complex includes a 375,000-square-foot building where the cutting-edge curriculum is divided into five career academies.
What wasn't new was the old habit of some students choosing to skip class and wander around and off the campus. To help solve that problem, Adams County School District No. 50 added one more item to the $92 million price tag for the new school � a Bobcat� 3400XL 4x4 utility vehicle, part of the New Breed of UTVs introduced in 2010.
"We knew our security staff had to cover a lot of property � that's why there are 140 security cameras � on the campus to get kids and transport them safely back to school," says Pat Sanchez, principal. "The 3400XL is perfect for that job, but as the school year moves along we are finding more uses for the vehicle."
The machine has made life easier for Steve Dehn and other members of the security staff.
"Previously students would see me on foot and decide to run," Dehn says. "Now they see me on the vehicle and they know they can't outrun me, so they usually give up quickly. Since we got the 3400XL, nobody has gone anywhere. It's a great preventive tool that keeps them in class."
Painted in the school colors of teal, black and white and with the wolf mascot, the utility vehicle is used throughout the day by the security staff. They drive it through the parking lots to check parking permits; to the stadium and sports fields, including an off-campus softball field; and even around the neighborhood.
"It has worked out real well," Dehn says. "The most often heard comment from the students is, �That is a cool machine.'"
Why a Bobcat UTV?
Principal Sanchez was a mechanic for five years before he became an automotive and diesel teacher. With his experience and knowledge, he researched the different brands of utility vehicles himself.
"The 3400XL met all of the specifications we had," he says. "I really liked the engine and the drivetrain. Those two items alone sold me. The machine has good power, good torque and handles very well."
The 3400XL has an electronic fuel injection system, a 32-horsepower gas engine and a top traveling speed of 30 mph. With an extra row of seating, the 3400XL can carry up to six occupants depending on the seat configuration. It was purchased from Bobcat of the Rockies.
The staff at Westminster High School continues to find additional after-hour jobs for the utility vehicle. Among other things, it is used to haul items to events (such as soda to concession stands), and bring athletic supplies and players to the various sporting venues.
"As the school with the largest campus in the state, we have a lot of ground to cover," Sanchez says. "The 3400XL is just what we need to stay on top of things around the school and the surrounding neighborhood."
