In Abuja, the greatest challenge for most motorists appears to be that of adequate parking spaces.
In a city that has thousands of cars to contend with on daily basis on its numerous roads and link highways, including those that ply inter state, managing these amazing number of cars is no mean task for city officials.
In a bid to bring a modicum of sanity to the situation, the authorities recently brought to bear a new policy which would see motorists paying a sum of money for parking their vehicles in specific places in the city centre. The FCT administration recently came out with a policy that will see drivers paying a minimum of N50 for parking spaces in designated areas of the city. The policy has however not gone down well with many motorists ,who insist that it is another move at fleecing them out of their hard earned money.
A few however see it as a positive trend that is capable of bringing order into parking in the city while at the same time allowing the authorities to earn a little revenue. The administration has however insisted that the move was principally aimed at easing traffic congestion on the roads , as well as entrenching traffic discipline and 'best practices by road-users, especially drivers who park indiscriminately on roads within the city.'
The FCTA has also said that its 'Park and Pay Policy' will not inflict hardship on the city's residents but would rather bring sanity to the road transport system within Abuja city. Spokesperson of the FCT Transport Secretariat, Mrs Ojeme noted in a chat with Daily Trust that if the policy is well implemented and accepted by residents, the thorny issues of wrongful parking by motorists will be stopped. "For every new administrative policy, there is bound to be controversy and such policies hold sway in most countries of the world, where sanity obtains in the way vehicle parking systems are managed in those cities," she explained.
She further urged motorists in Abuja to embrace the policy, since it is meant for their convenience and comfort. 'Most of the people who complain about the policy would soon begin to enjoy it in a matter of months when they see the order and sanity that the policy is able to bring about. It is not all about the money which will be raised from the policy.
It is principally about the benefits accruable from such a laudable project that is commonplace in advanced countries of the world. Our country should not be excluded from these modern trends,' she added.
Recently, the Federal Capital Territory Administration (FCTA) signed a contract with two firms, Integrated Parking Services Limited and Platinum Parking Management Services Ltd. for the provision, installation and management of on-street parking facilities and services in Abuja both thus becoming the first civil parking enforcement companies with such responsibilities in Abuja. According to press reports the contract is valued at N1.7 billion with a huge chunk to be delivered into the city's coffers.
A female resident who has lived many years abroad says she is pleasantly surprised by the new policy. She was initially stunned when she saw 'smartly dressed officials' implementing the policy along the Ahmadu Bello expressway. Their decent manner of approach in explaining the policy to motorists and in the issuance of parking receipts astounded her, making her to temporarily think she was back abroad. 'It is a good policy if well implemented and accepted by residents will go a long way in bringing us to par with developments around the world,' she enthuses proudly.
But others who have tasted the unpleasant side of the new policy, are yet to share the same enthusiasm. Illegal parking in such spots leads automatically to clamping of such cars. Platinum Parking Management Services Limited, one of the companies monitoring the parking laws in the FCT has this to say on the legality of its clamping of vehicles of erring motorists on its website. 'Wheel clamping and vehicle removal has proved to be the most effective deterrent and cost effective solution to eliminate unauthorised parking both on and off street... the law requires that large, clear warning signs are placed throughout the parking area, informing motorists of the parking restrictions in place, so that they are easily visible from wherever a car may be clamped and, should they park in breach of the parking restrictions, they will be entering into a contract agreeing that we can clamp/remove their vehicle and charge them to release and/or return the vehicle. By parking, the driver automatically enters into a contract with us to clamp or remove their vehicle. Signage shall be installed throughout the parking area informing motorists of the terms and conditions of parking. We shall then have our fully uniformed Parking Officers commence patrols to issue Penalty Charge Notices and clamp any offending vehicles. The offending vehicle shall have (x) hours to pay a set fine after which their vehicle gets towed away to a vehicle pound-yard. If and when the vehicle is towed to our designated yard for safe keeping of the vehicle until the owner reclaims their vehicle, a daily surcharge shall be added to the initial charge of clamping plus removal cost. The daily storage rate will usually attract not more than 15% (fifteen percent) of the cost of clamping and towing added together. If the vehicle is not reclaimed back by the owner between 3 months maximum after clamp and tow date, we shall obtain the registered keeper's details from the police and/or the vehicle licensing authority. We shall make all efforts set in the judicial guideline to locate the owner of the vehicle before such vehicle shall be auctioned off to the public at a registered auctioneer to recover part of our management cost,' it says sternly.
Not many feel elated by the policy. A motorist, Ayodele Olusina says it is another money spinner for the authorities. 'It is just another move to generate more revenue for the city. Of course ,that is alright but should it be at the detriment of the masses? They should instead think of building more parking lots across the city for the use of the people, rather than further impoverishing them. The policy is not totally sound in its merits.'
Sikiru Deji ,a commercial driver, is somewhat indifferent: 'the government must be obeyed at all cost no matter what one thinks. People like us have learnt to obey whatever they throw at us. For us transporters ,the policy does not directly affect us as we are always on the move. The private car owners are more affected. The Policy is good to a large extent however.'
Abdul-azeez Usman, another resident looks at the channel of the expected revenue: 'will the funds be used well? It is good if we are able to raise revenue for the authorities. But we hope the cash from the proceeds will not end up in private pockets. I enjoy it and willingly pay when I park but my fear is if the sacrifice is really worth it.'
A motorist who declined giving his name is more forthright in his condemnation: 'I don't like the policy at all. There are better things to be done in the FCT rather than embarking on a controversial policy. It is not what we need now in the FCT.'
Others wonder if there would not be a clash of duties between the officials of government recognised outfits such as the Police, the Vehicle Inspection Outfit, VIO and the Federal Road Safety commission, FRSC and personnel of the two concessionaires.
The policy has received support from a section of the National Assembly. Senate president David Mark recently threw his weight behind it: "For Abuja to be a model city you must take painful decisions.
In any case, you need to provide enough for things to work in Abuja. I am saying this, so that those in charge of Abuja could embark on initiatives geared toward boosting internally generated revenue so that they can provide the facilities that you want them to provide in the city.
The minister of Abuja should make sure that there are facilities to take care of the pressure and those trooping to Abuja, because if care is not taken, sooner than later Abuja will be like Lagos. People have to pay for the parking space in Abuja,' he was quoted as saying.
In the meantime, an Abuja based lawyer, Innocent Onwu, has taken the Minister of the FCT to an Abuja high court for alleged 'illegal collection of fees from motorists who park their cars in the streets and roads of Abuja and for lack of necessary laws backing such collections.' Joined in the suit is the Federal Capital Territory Administration. In a 22 paragraph affidavit deposed to by Innocent Onwu, he noted that only the National Assembly has powers to make laws for the FCT, including legislation on fees and revenue collections and observed that no such laws have been enacted for the defendants to leverage upon for such "illegal collections." The matter is yet to be assigned to a judge so no specific date has been fixed yet for hearing of the suit.

Daniel Estrada's second-half goal earned Real Sociedad victory against Primera Division new boys Granada.
Estrada's strike came in the 64th minute when he linked up with Asier Illarramendi to curl his shot into the top left-hand corner of the goal from 25 yards. It was Sociedad's second win of the season and moves them into fifth place in La Liga, with Granada still in 15th.
Before kick-off, Granada were boosted by the absence of Sociedad's star midfielder Xabi Prieto, who suffered an ankle injury in Saturday's 1-0 defeat by Sevilla. The newly-promoted side were looking to record their second league win after beating Villarreal 1-0 at the weekend, which was also the team's first win in the top-flight in decades after back-to-back promotions.
But Granada manager Fabri Gonzalez's hopes of sealing all three points was dashed when Estrada beat goalkeeper Fernandez Roberto with his excellent long-range shot.
Both sides took time to settle down, with the first real chance of the game coming from Sociedad's McDonald Mariga in the 12th minute, but his speculative 25-yard strike flew over the bar. Sociedad midfielder Imanol Agirretxe was then booked for handling the ball in a scrappy period of play.
The best chance of the first period came when Illarramendi delivered a testing corner, which Inigo Martinez headed from inside the six-yard box, causing Roberto to tip the ball over the bar. Granada midfielder Daniel Benitez then saw his 20-yard volley caught by goalkeeper Claudio Bravo on the stroke of half-time to leave the scores locked at 0-0.
After the break, the home side had more of the attack, with Carlos Vela's shot missing the target just minutes before Estrada broke the deadlock. Sociedad continued to press but failed to increase their slender lead, with Granada never looking likely to score.

Hotel Renew by Aston Rating: 3.5 Pearls
On paper, Hotel Renew might look like a standard-issue budget property that's generally short on amenities. Indeed, it lacks a pool, fitness center, and on-site restaurants. But this charming, 72-room boutique has some of the most stylish rooms on the island, and some unexpected perks like a free (albeit simple) continental breakfasts, free Wi-Fi, and free beach chairs, bamboo beach mats, and boogie boards.
Ke Iki Beach Bungalows Rating: 3.0 Pearls
Ke Iki's 11 private bungalows are located on a beautiful, uncrowded North Shore beach down the road from the quaint surfer town Haleiwa, a world away from the Waikiki's 1000-plus-room mega-resorts. For a laid-back, do-it-yourself vacation -- you'll probably be cooking in the full kitchen, making your own bed, and barbecuing -- this is a great, under-the-radar pick, as long as you don't mind the lack of air-conditioning and amenities.
Park Shore Waikiki Rating: 3.0 Pearls
The Park Shore is more than it seems. Sure, it's a slightly dated budget hotel, but it manages to compensate with superb views of the beach and Diamond Head volcanic crater, and its location -- on the eastern edge of Waikiki -- means that you're away from the noise but still close to the stunning Kuhio section of Waikiki Beach, the park, the zoo, and great restaurants.
Lotus Honolulu at Diamond Head Rating: 3.5 Pearls
Originally the swanky W Waikiki, The Lotus at Diamond Head has held on to the same chic W decor, but dropped the W's exorbitant rates. And because the hotel consists of only 50 guest rooms (which were renovated in 2012), and is located well outside the central Waikiki action, guests can enjoy a laid-back experience that won't be disrupted by constant crowds.
Coconut Waikiki Hotel Rating: 3.0 Pearls
For many, the Best Western brand connotes utilitarian, business-like rooms. But don't let the name fool you -- the reality is that this Best Western is a cute, boutique-y property with generous, 400-square-foot standard rooms, stylish, colorful decor and excellent, pillow-top beds. Great freebies like a free breakfast buffet, free Wi-Fi, and free Thursday evening cocktails make the hotel an even better deal.

You probably didn't wake up today wondering what you could learn from 17th century Dutch shipbuilders. Surprisingly, there are (at least) three valuable lessons for your business today.
I recently had the chance to visit Holland's premiere museum, the Rijksmuseum. One painting that stood out at the Amsterdam museum was " Warships in a Heavy Storm" by Ludolf Bakhuysen, circa 1695.
The museum displayed a short reflection below the painting: "It looks terrible. How can they survive this? But the boats were designed for this. Their hulls were minutely adapted for these conditions. The crews have practiced for this kind of weather."
This is what we have to do today with our businesses.
1. Design
As those sea-faring Dutchmen of centuries ago first designed their boats, they knew the hull was most critical. They focused on a structure that would withstand the dangers they were facing. We have to design our businesses and skillset to withstand the challenges of today.
2. Practice
Crews practiced (we'd call it trained) for extreme, adverse weather conditions. Leaders equipped their crews with the knowledge to handle storms around the world. This is what successful businesses do today with simulation training.
3. Execution
The 17th century Dutch ships were built with careful attention to detail. The tortures of sea travel were potentially costly, even deadly. Shipbuilders fortified their vessels to withstand massive force from their environment. The goal was to preserve the crew's safety and continue the journey. Make sure your business fundamentals are solid. Then carry them out with commitment to your core foundations.

Initial work on the cover of Joseph D'Lacey's new novel Blood Fugue
The Jimenez family arrives in Hobson's Valley, a dead end town in the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho, looking for the last resting place of an ancestor. They ask directions from Jimmy Kerrigan, a reclusive outdoorsman who lives on the threshold between the town and the wilderness. They then disappear into the forests of Bear Mountain, the peak that looms over the tiny community.
Jimmy Kerrigan senses a dark presence in the forest. Several fiendish attacks on local people convince him that something is wrong in Hobson's Valley. He sets out to search for the missing Jimenez family, the mysterious Sallow Man and the adolescent seductress, Gina Priestly. In doing so he discovers the secret of the Fugue and finds himself in a desperate battle to save not only the town, but also the future of humanity. The path he follows ultimately leads him back to himself.
Blood Fugue is a re-working of the vampire sub-genre in which nature – our own personal nature and that of the outdoors – is the cause. Natural magic is the cure. For Jimmy Kerrigan, it's a journey of constant self rediscovery as he learns more and more about Fugue, its cause and cure and how he came to carry the mantle of Fugue Hunter.

Jack will come back better for the experience in York defeat
Posted: December 04, 2012|
JACK Lisowski vowed to return stronger for the experience after his UK Championship debut ended in disappointment in the first round with a 6-2 defeat to in-form Stuart Bingham.
The 21-year-old from Churchdown tipped by many as a future star of the game, qualified through to the main draw for the first time in his young career but found Bingham too tough to handle.
The two traded frames in the opening stages before Bingham, who at the age of 36 has broken into the top ten in the world rankings for the first time in his career, ran away from the youngster.
But Lisowski refused to use the TV cameras in York as an excuse for his disappointing performance, instead pinpointing his long potting as his Achilles heel.
"I wasn't overawed by the occasion," he said.
"I have played in front of bigger crowds than that before so that certainly was not the reason.
"It was a good experience, I was not very nervous at all but the snooker itself was disappointing.
"My long potting was terrible and I kept leaving them for him, that was the problem and I need to work on that.
"I'm still too inconsistent at the moment but I'm coming up and I need to keep working hard and practising to make sure days like this one don't happen again."
Fellow Gloucester potter Robert Milkins also went out in the first round in York, the 36-year-old falling to the UK Champion of 2008 Shaun Murphy 6-3.
Playing a former world champion is a tough enough prospect at the best of times but qualifier Milkins' task was made all the more difficult as he was feeling somewhat under the weather.
And the qualifier admitted afterwards that he had struggled to cope with the occasion as a result.
"I have been really poorly for five days, I'm not well, and I sort of let that affect me at the start of the match," he said.
"Sometimes when things are not quite going your way it feels worse. Certain shots I was getting down and then having to stand back up to make sure I was hitting the right ball.
"I have felt dizzy now for the past five days, I don't know what it is so I will go to the doctor and get it checked out now.
"I played all right after the interval but I just couldn't seem to get back level.
"But In all fairness to Shaun he played well when he had to."

Gingrich Lawyers Threaten Florida TV Stations Airing "False" Attack Ads; They Aren't False
A political action committee opposing Republican presidential candidate Newt Gingrich just bought $3.6 million in Florida TV advertisements, according to the New York Times, and it appears the best response Gingrich can muster is something along the lines of, "Hey guys, knock it off. That's not nice."
The group, called "Restore Our Future," backs Mitt Romney and has already spent millions of dollars on attack ads accusing Gingrich of everything from being friends with Nancy Pelosi to trying to get the government to pay for abortions. The bit Gingrich takes exception to, however, is a little 7-second segment in the middle of an ad that claims Gingrich was fined $300,000 for ethics violations as speaker of the House. (Spoiler alert: He was.)
Gingrich's lawyers sent letters to dozens of television stations in primary states, threatening legal action if they aired the ads, according to Politico. They wrote to the stations that "any statement or suggestion of a 'fine' is false. Even a cursory review of either the Report itself or the Congressional Record ... undeniably establish the falsity of this statement."
Luckily for us, the "Report itself" is online -- and it seems like everyone but congressional rulebook nerds would say Gingrich got his ass fined.
You can check out the super-exciting details for yourself, but the investigative subcommittee basically found that Gingrich didn't have enough money to pay for distribution of a pro-Republican TV program he put together, so he used a non-profit 501(c)(3) organization -- which, by definition, isn't allowed to get involved in anything political -- to solicit money that donors could deduct from their taxes. He made a similar move to distribute footage from a course he taught at Kennesaw State College that was so controversial it got all elected officials banned from teaching at Georgia universities.
"In both instances," the report's conclusion reads, "there was an effort to have the material appear to be non-partisan on its face, yet serve as a partisan, political message for the purpose of building the Republican Party."
The subcommittee also found the letters of explanation Gingrich submitted to it were "very troubling" because they didn't actually explain anything; Gingrich blamed his lawyers and said he didn't realize what was going on.
In the end, the committee decided that "over a number of years and in a number of situations, Mr. Gingrich showed a disregard and lack of respect for the standards of conduct that applied to his activities," and it recommended the House reprimand him.
And then, about two-thirds of the way down in the conclusion, we get this special morsel:
Under the Rules of the Committee, a reprimand is the appropriate sanction for a serious violation of House Rules and a censure is appropriate for a more serious violation of House Rules. ... It was the opinion of the Subcommittee that this matter fell somewhere in between. Accordingly, the Subcommittee and the Special Counsel recommend that the appropriate sanction should be a reprimand and a payment reimbursing the House for some of the costs of the investigation in the amount of $300,000. Mr. Gingrich has agreed that this is the appropriate sanction in this matter.
So when Gingrich spokesman R.C. Hammond said Monday that the Congressional Record "clearly states that the Speaker was reimbursing the committee for an investigation caused by a lawyer error," he was mischaracterizing pretty much every aspect of the situation. The investigation was caused not by a lawyer error, but by Gingrich blatantly violating House rules -- the actual "lawyer error" referenced in the investigation was Gingrich blaming his counsel for letters full of inaccuracies that he personally signed his name to.
And this "reimbursement" wasn't Gingrich just being nice -- he was ordered to do it by a vote of 395 to 28 because a regular reprimand wasn't enough. Washington Post coverage of the event very clearly defines it as an "unprecedented $300,000 penalty."
The issue, it seems, is that a "fine" is defined very specifically in the House rules, so while most people would call it a fine when Congress says "give us enough money to pay for the time we wasted while you let your lawyers bullshit us into cluelessness," Congress itself calls it a reimbursement. We'll have to wait and see what the super PACS are allowed to call it.

Survey Finds Wealthy Brits Keen For An Expat Life
While news stories often focus on the number of foreign nationals entering the UK, a recent survey seems to indicate that more and more Britons are looking for a better lifestyle as expats abroad. While wealth management matters are important to wealthy Brits, they also feel that keeping an eye on their state of happiness is just as vital.
The survey by YouGov showed that amongst the consulted UK residents with assets exceeding £250,000, a large proportion of them believe that life in the UK offers less opportunity for well-being and quality lifestyles as opposed to other developed nations. The results also showed that general happiness levels and feeling of well-being in this country are also considered to be significantly poorer in comparison to other countries. When asked to comment on stress levels, a tiny 3% of those surveyed believe that the people in the UK suffer less stress, while 3 out of every 5 people questioned believe that Britons are much more stressed than people living in developed countries.
The survey also revealed that amongst those consulted, more than a third of them seemed eager to make the move to a new location outside of the UK and a further 14% of them were thinking about making the same move during the next couple of years.
Wealth Management – Better Tax Deals For Expats?
Problems in the UK economy over recent years has moved the focus slightly for higher-earners – while wealth management and financial security is still a big consideration, they are also becoming disheartened with the state of financial affairs here. This has led to a change in attitude towards the prospect of moving abroad, with 30% of those consulted agreeing that it is now a much more attractive proposition than staying in their home country.
Other reasons cited for wanting to leave the UK for a new life as an expat include the high levels of antisocial behaviour and crime we suffer and also the high taxation levels that we're dealt. In terms of wealth management, if UK residents feel that they will get a better financial deal abroad and less risk of becoming a victim of crime, it's easy to see why so many people are considering it as their next step. Other results of the survey show that only 10% believe that life in the UK is better than alternative developed countries and a massive 43% of people who took part believe that residents in the UK have quality of life that is lower in comparison.
Last November as the British government called for the development of a happiness index which would measure the British people's value of well-being that is not simply dictated by money. The figures that have come about as a result of the survey seem to indicate that there really is a need in this country to build on people's perspective of well-being and improving our levels of happiness.

I know two things about Nigeria and that's about it. It's in Africa and there seems to be a lot of royalty there with money tied up in red tape. One thing that I didn't know was that Nigeria is home to the world's third largest film industry and that they release between 500 and 1000 movies a year. That's a shitload of movies! Particularly from such a poor country. What's even more impressive is how quickly this industry has sprung up. Since 1995, the Nigerian film industry exploded and they continue to crank out films today that deal with a huge variety of topics that are relevant to what seems like Nigerians and Nigerians alone. To quote the Michael Stevenson article that I will inevitably link to:
The aesthetic is loud, violent, excessive; nothing is said, everything is shouted.
Consider me immediately fascinated. I think I'm going to have to do some real research and track some of this Nigerian cinema down. I know I'll wind up with some cheap action and horror movies but would you expect anything else? I usually don't care much for a particular nation's culturally significant movies. There's something to be said about the lower end of their cinematic spectrum. What a bunch of effete intellectual filmmakers are doing with storytelling and imagery represents nothing to me. What does is what the average people are going to see which is why I tend to gravitate to gun-porn and martial arts in the East and ghetto action from France.
Anyway, for some really striking photography that represents common elements and stereotypes of Nigerian movies drop by Michael Stevenson's page for a quick exhibit of photos by Pieter Hugo. In the meantime, I plan on tracking down Welcome To Nollywood as an introduction.

Bets on higher crude-oil prices surged 12 percent to the highest since October. Prices fell 3.4 percent last week in New York trading. The funds switched to betting on a decline in natural gas prices for the first time in three weeks.
Gold Wagers
Bullish gold holdings dropped to 126,073 contracts, the lowest since Aug. 21. Goldman lowered its 12-month estimate by 7.2 percent to $1,800 an ounce on Dec. 5 and said the metal would average $1,750 in 2014. Gold for immediate delivery closed at $1,704.05 on Dec. 7, and rose 0.5 percent today to $1,712.85. Fourteen of 31 analysts surveyed by Bloomberg expect prices to rise this week, 10 were bearish and seven were neutral, making the proportion of bulls the lowest since Oct. 19.
A measure of net-longs for 11 U.S. farm goods rose 10 percent to 535,463 contracts, the CFTC data show. Investors became bullish on cotton for the first time in five weeks, holding 650 net-long bets compared with a net-short wager of 9,862 contracts a week earlier.
Wheat holdings dropped 20 percent to 34,429 contracts and are down 57 percent from this years peak in August. From June 1 to Nov. 29, U.S. exporters shipped 12.1 million metric tons, 12 percent less than a year earlier, government data show.
Aggregate demand for raw materials is bad, and thats why were seeing a backwash in prices, said Stanley Crouch, who helps oversee $2 billion as chief investment officer at New York-based Aegis Capital Corp. The whole world is based on consumption, and now consumption has been artificially enhanced.

Cal Cup Matron Next for Dream of Summer
Dream of Summer, winner of six of eight career races including her last five in a row, will pass Sunday's $250,000 Lady's Secret Breeders' Cup Handicap (gr. II) and be pointed to the $150,000 California Cup Matron, trainer Juan Garcia said Wednesday.
While both races for fillies and mares 3-years-old and up are the same distance, 1 1/16 miles, the Lady's Secret carries $100,000 more in purse money. Elloluv, Island Fashion and Summer Wind Dancer are expected to run.
"She's doing fine," Garcia said of the 5-year-old gray daughter of Siberian Summer. "We just felt the Cal Cup would be a better spot for her."
Dream of Summer, owned by James Weigel of Valencia, won the Rancho Bernardo Handicap (gr. III) at 6 ½ furlongs in her most recent start, on Aug. 21 at Del Mar. She has earned $322,500.

The Vampire Diaries
Season 3 Spoilers! Katherine's Return and Forwood's Fireworks
It's confirmed: Season 3 will take Caroline (Candice Accola) and Tyler (Michael Trevino) out of the friend zone and into the bedroom.
The Vampire Diaries' executive producer Julie Plec told TV Line, "The thing about the friends zone is, when there's that much animalistic sexual tension that exists between two people, eventually the friends zone is going to have a mattress involved."
Um, we could've told you that! (Oh, wait. We did.)
Plec teased, "sooner or later" Forwood won't be able to run from the "fireworks that very clearly have been simmering between them all summer long."
All summer? We'd say all last season long.
As for Katherine (Nina Dobrev), we were worried that Mystic Falls' resident vamp vixen was gone for good. But Plec says the queen of the damned will be back.
"We're not going to see Katherine right away," Plec tells TV Line. "But when she does show up, she's not going to show up empty-handed."
Apparently Kat will return home with some need-to-know information for the Mystic Falls crew. We knew she was good for something!

Ha! Thats my blog! Thanks for the link.
I must add that having ridden my DR650 from Portland, Oregon in to Mexico down and beyond Guadalajara to Michoacan the summer of 2010, despite the warnings by the US border agents in Presidio Texas, I found it quite safe. Mostly the roads were very light in traffic and Mexicans drive quite slowly so it felt safe. In tight traffic city situations I felt it was probably easier on my bike to weave out of a tight spot than if had been in a car. Many Mexican drivers are also quite courteous and will drive as far to the side of the road as possible to let you pass with oncoming traffic.
I got lost a few times trying the smaller roads and asked for directions and the locals were quite helpful. I was pulled over only once entering Guadalajara by a bike cop, but although not friendly he didn't try and fine me after he checked all my paperwork.
The only thing I was weary of were the odd horse walking on the road.
There are some photos of my bike trip to Mexico on my blog

About Our Department
Much more than your average dorm!
Baylor residence halls are unique learning environments designed to prepare you for life in a diverse world and give you the opportunity to build life-changing relationships. Within Baylor residence communities, you will encounter students who come to Baylor from around the globe, faculty who participate in hall activities, and staff who are committed to fostering your well-being and development. By living and engaging in your residence hall, you'll learn what it means to be part of something much larger than yourself - a community.
Since the adoption of Baylor 2012 in 2001, Campus Living & Learning (also known as CL&L) has been on a mission to transform the face of on-campus living. It's for this reason we think of residence halls as learning communities rather than dorms.
Although you may think you're moving into a "dorm," we hope you'll find it to be much more. Dormitory or dorm comes from the Latin word dormire, which means "to sleep." While we indeed hope you'll be doing some sleeping in your residence hall, we are strategic and intentional about creating a community experience in which you will grow socially, intellectually and spiritually.

Night life living
from Earl Sweatshirt (Ft. Vince Staples) – Burgundy Lyrics on Genius
Earl & his crew prefer to be active at night: Earl preferably does everything at night. Earl is so reckless he could be up all night and sleep the whole day because he can relate more to the dark where actions are not as revealed.

Swaroop C H, The Dreamer — at foss.in
Over on Planet TurboGears, Swaroop (author of "A Byte of Python") asks: "Does Ruby on Rails really need the CREATE TABLE SQL statements to be written by hand?"
Well, as of a couple months ago, that would have been true, but now Rails has "Migrations" which are just as cool as the way all of us TurboGears folks have been doing it with SQLObject.
In fact, you could argue that migratins are a bit better in the way they handle incremental database upgrades both on the development and production side.
Right now this is not working as well as it should in TurboGears, and a couple people have reported problems with incremental schema updates. But I see that there is already a bug and a patch in the TurboGears Trac to fix the incremental upgrade problems people are having, so it should be fixed in SVN, but I haven't had time to test it yet.
Anyway, I am excited to see these two great full stack web application frameworks getting better every day.

MORE than half of people caught carrying cocaine, heroin and ecstasy are getting a slap on the wrist.
Figures released by police, after a Freedom of Information request, showed 1,007 people were arrested for possession of class-A drugs in Oxfordshire during the past two years.
Officers charged 310 people and cautioned 401 for possessing drugs. They released 259 without charge.
Charity DrugScope expressed concerns over the findings and the mother of a teenage boy killed by a heroin overdose branded the situation "disgusting".
Former Sea Cadet Christopher Preece, 18, died the first time he used heroin, in March 2007, while living in a housing project in Great Western Drive, Didcot.
His mother Emma Preece, 38, said: It's disgusting. These kids have heroin on them and get fined £80. It's just a slap on the wrist.
They have no money, so don't pay the fine and know they won't go to jail because the prisons are full.
Nothing happens if you get caught with drugs.
PC Leigh Thompson, Oxfordshire drugs co-ordinator, said jailing people carrying class-A drugs was not always the best option.
He said: I'd much rather get someone into treatment than give them the stigma of a criminal record.
But if it is serious, then we will take them to court.
We have got a good system of treatment here and it works really well.
Even with a caution, they still have to go through the relevant drug assessment programme.
Police test everyone charged for drugs. If class-A drugs are found in their blood, they are placed on drugs intervention programmes with organisations such as Oxford's Substance Misuse Arrest Referral Team (Smart) and Drugs and Alcohol Action Team (Daat).
Police also place drug testing requirements on criminals on bail from prison.
Darren Worthington, chief executive of Smart, said: Police now appreciate that serious addicts caught in possession are probably less likely to attend court dates, and that it would be more beneficial and less costly in these instances to caution and refer the individual directly to agencies like Smart.
Our experiences of working closely with the police in Oxfordshire tell us that they adopt a refreshingly pragmatic view of drug use generally.
During the past two years, police arrested 217 people for possession of class-A drugs with intent to supply.
They charged 68 and 131 were released. No one was cautioned.
Martin Barnes, Drug-Scope chief executive, said: The proportion of people arrested for possession of heroin or crack cocaine who are charged does seem low, but there are likely to be a number of factors at play.
The majority of police forces, including Thames Valley Police, now carry out drug tests on arrests where people are caught carrying heroin or crack. This can assist them in determining the most appropriate response.
Each offence should be judged on a case by case basis clearly, possessing class-A drugs with intent to supply is likely to merit a charge, but for individuals caught carrying small amounts of heroin or crack for personal use, a more appropriate response may be referral to drug treatment, often with a conditional caution, than criminal penalties.
The Misuse of Drugs Act says anyone convicted of possession of class-A drugs can face a maximum sentence of seven years in jail and an unlimited fine.

Which Rockers?
From hard-core racing to mild street engines, COMP Cams has been one of the main providers of high-performance rockers for decades. Recently the engineers at COMP have revamped a few of their popular rockers, including their Ultra Gold line and Ultra Pro Magnums, so we contacted Trent Goodwin with some questions about construction and what we can look forward to in the high-performance Chevy world.
CHP: We've noticed steel rockers have started to become more popular in recent years, why is that?
COMP Cams: For stud mount rockers, yes, a lot of engine builders use the steel rocker over the aluminum rocker for more strength and being allowed to run a high-spring pressure. If the engine builder is building a high-horsepower application, it may require our Shaft Mount Aluminum Rocker Arms. These rockers are made from 2024 aluminum and use an 8620 hardened steel shaft, which will make this stronger than a steel stud mount rocker.
CHP: We've heard that today's steel roller rockers are actually as light or lighter than some previous aluminum versions, is that true?
COMP Cams: Our new Ultra-Gold ARC Aluminum Roller Rocker offers a new arced design with a channel and contoured top to give the rocker the best strength-to-weight ratio possible. The end result, less weight and a stronger rocker design.
CHP: Is it true that there's some maintenance that goes with aluminum rockers?
COMP Cams: You should not use aluminum rockers on applications exceeding 600 pounds of spring pressure. If your application exceeds this, yes we would recommend checking your rockers periodically.
CHP: Are there any new rocker designs coming out for Chevys that you can talk about?
COMP Cams: We are always in the process of designing and coming up with new products and ways to enhance every aspect of the valvetrain of an engine. We are in the process of finalizing our new LS3 Factory Offset rockers. These rockers are made of 850 chrome-moly steel, black oxide exterior finish, oversized trunions and will be offered with a 3/8 stud and 1.8 rocker ratio.
Wild Rockers
In racing applications, getting the rockers to fit can be tricky depending on a few factors. On racing heads where the valves have been moved, angled, or both, custom rockers are usually required. One of the companies out there that handles both high-end rocker assemblies and street/strip setups is T&D machine in Carson City, Nevada. We contacted T&D's Phil Elliot with some burning inquiries we had on one of the toughest pieces in your engine.
CHP: Do you think the need for custom offsets has become more common in the last decade? Why or why not? T&D: It certainly is common here. Virtually all engine builders have their own ideas about just what they want in offset or ratio. Because it is based around state-of-the-art CNC technology, T&D has the ability to add special features as needed. CHP: What are some of the more uncommon requests for custom rockers? Any 1.9:1 ratios or 2.3:1? Are those even possible, and what would they be used for?
T&D: T&D attempts to build rocker systems to suit each customer's engine combo, even when engineering suggests the idea will not fit or work. Those high ratios you mentioned have actually become quite common—even 2.3:1. Yes, they are possible, and work extremely well in rare places such as NASCAR "cup" plate motors where tight camshaft restrictions require "cheating" in other areas.
CHP: What are your thoughts on the steel rockers in high-end racing? Do people ever request custom steel rockers?
T&D: T&D began building steel rocker arms for a very specialized area—race boats that hop in and out of the water, wreaking havoc on valvetrain components. As they evolved, it was discovered that longevity increased threefold. Now, several years into their development, T&D steel rockers have found their way into far more niches than even we imagined, and they account for a fairly high percentage of sales.
CHP: Do you see any advancement for rockers on the horizon?
T&D: I suppose you want us to tell about exotic unobtanium and the secret zero-gram rockers T&D builds for the very elite teams. But truly, T&D excels because it continues to provide the best rockers, using the finest components available, and based on sound engineering principles.

Why do I want an arsehole instead if someone sweet?
I have a lovely sweet guy after me who I know won't hurt me but I somehow still want the twat who hurt me,what's up with that.I'm sure it's not just... Show More
Most Helpful Opinion
Lol, guys go crazy about this on this site. They all claim to be "nice guys" too, who "finish last."
So the guy is nice. Great! But he doesn't excite you/doesn't make you laugh/is insecure and clingy/is unattractive to you/has no job or motivation/is otherwise incompatible with you/etc (or a combination of these). So you reject him, and he thinks "oh, it's because I'm a nice guy." Lol.
It's not your fault he doesn't have the qualities you look for in a guy. I just rejected a nice guy last night because he's missing important qualities I want (smart, fun, Christian). I recommend you set standards for yourself and stick to them. I don't recommend you go for the jerk-face who might hurt you haha. Try looking for a sweet guy who ALSO has the qualities you want. I promise they're out there!
She never even mentioned if the sweet guy was missing all that other stuff...
- Show Older Hide Older
yeah cause attraction always makes sense huh? and you are also assuming all women are like you as well.
I don't know why you're rejecting this logic haha. Would you rather blame women for being "stupid" than accept that maybe it's not our fault?
If the sweet boy had what she was looking for, then there would be no question if she'd be dating him now. It's simple really. He's missing at least one important quality that she wants in a boyfriend.
What Guys Said 14
I think people sometimes like the challenge of a person who has character flaws. The idea that you could potentially change someone for the better and make them this perfect mate is an enticing one.
I dated a girl who had so many issues it was ridiculous (abusive father, alcoholic mother, controlling step father, a younger sibling who she saw die tragically, brothers on drugs, etc). Our relationship was OK but fraught it drama and turmoil. But I just to myself if I can rescue her from all this (emotionally and physically) it will be the greatest love of all.
Well it wasn't. People often think they can change or help people, and to some extent you can, but you certainly shouldn't do it in a relationship at the expense of your own feelings and emotions.
I don't think you can help whom you are attracted to. You seem to be attracted to his confidence and mystery and energy.. you are not alone.. 90% of girls in the world are attracted to this.
Just be sure you are attracted to him and not attracted to an abusive relationship. Be ready to be played with or your heart broken.
It is just a matter of maturity as well.
All the best to you .
Question #1: Personality aside, are you phyisically attracted to the "lovely sweet guy"?
Yes I am,although he lacks the confidence I found attractive in the other guy.
- Show Older Hide Older
"But I admit sometimes be tries a bit too hard"
How so?
It's possible that the one who hurts you makes you feel rejected to some degree. We all hate to be rejected, therefore you gravitate toward him in order to overcome the feelings of rejection. This will only continue because you allow it and he has gotten away with it with you. SO, STOP! Go and try the better choice, experience what it is like to be treated as a lady "With Respect"
If you try this and really don't recognize the value in having such a person to love you. Explain this to this better man so that he don't think he did anything wrong, then go back to the bad choice.
"And They Lived Miserably Ever After"
Use your better judgement for the better good of you and your loved ones.
Take Care, 'cause I DO Care.
Sincerely: John
Don't worry, it's just because you are stupid; it's not a big deal.
- Show Older Hide Older
Just because I want him doesn't mean I'm considering being with him.I know he will hurt which is why I'm not with him and why I dumped him in the first place.Perhaps you should know things before you jump to conclusions,maybe that's why you are the stupid one.
I actually agree with this guy.
Most girls feel that way.
You will eventually grow old and tired of compromising mental bliss for physical lust. You will then gravitate to the sweet guy. The only thing sweet guys can do to fight this is wait until you girls get to be 45 years old and divorced with 2 kids is say "go -bleep- die alone."
I lol'd
This reminds me of the scene in star wars, A New Hope...when obi wan and luke were taking the droids through the spaceport on tatoonie and they were stopped by storm troopers. Obi wan used a jedi mind trick to get the storm troopers off their back. Obi wan tells luke that jedi mind tricks only work on the weak minded. Today, the media are the jedi playing mind tricks...but thankfully it doesn't work on all women.
Never thought anyone could make an analogy of Star Wars to this :P
Girls love a**holes because you believe that once you sleep with them, they can change. I learned this the hard way after being the nice guy who girls would never get with. After hearing female friends complain about a**holes they were banging all the time, I got the hint. Become the a**hole she bangs!
Seriously guys, the effort of being "nice" is wasted on women. They want a man who tries to f*** them and f*** with them. Push for sex early and often and if she says no, ignore her and be aloof. She'll come running back to you nine times out of ten. If she doesn't, it won't matter, because you're already becoming an a**hole for another girl.
The key is to stop caring about what is good for girls and care about what is good for you as a man, and there's nothing better than to be the a**hole that actually is getting his d*** wet instead of the "nice guy" to had to listen to all her crap about what a**holes men are. Prove her right, become the a**hole!
Ahhhh girls. you can't help who you are attracted to, but still this is why the phrase 'nice guys finish last' was invented.
go with your a**hole guy, have tons of hot sex with him, let him rough you up and then if you manage to get out of it without having his kid, finally realize how stupid you were and go after nice sweet guys you passed up during it...
What Girls Said 3
I am in the same situation. I prefer my twat of an ex. We have been broken up over a year and I would still rather be with him than a nice sweet guy that likes me. I am more attracted to my ex physically and he still gives me the whole butterfly feeling in my stomach whenever I randomly hear from him.
"...and I would still rather be with him than a nice sweet guy that likes me"
Are you referring to a specific "nice sweet guy" or and nice, sweet guy in general?
A specific nice sweet guy who just doesn't give me that butterfly feeling. We went on some dates he's a nice guy and nice looking but I don't get the heart pounding butterflies in the stomach love struck feeling. I am aware how silly I might sound.
You are attracted to who you are attracted to . Nothing silly about that . What you can do is to give advice to guys on how to create these butterflies lol
Have an opinion?

Review: Curb Your Enthusiasm - Denise Handicap
(S07E05) "Have you noticed if she has any proclivity for chopsticks?" - Larry
It's amazing to me that the main topic of last night's Curb Your Enthusiasm, people in wheelchairs, has never been tackled by Larry before. I'm sure there have been a few wheelchair jokes in the past that I'm forgetting, but this? This was a full-blown, inappropriate mess of incorrectness and every second of it was brilliant. Save for "The Reunion," this was easily the strongest episode of the season. Wheelchairs, wrestling Rosie O'Donnell, and the return of Leon! How can you go wrong?
Right from the moment Denise Handicap asked Larry if he was some sort of creepy creep-o, it was like a roller coaster slowly inching to the top and it took all episode before we finally edged over the hump. You were on the edge of your seat the whole time. Larry David is horrible person and he's going on a date with a woman in a wheelchair! How could this not end badly?
So many moments were played to perfection - carrying Denise up the stairs when there was no ramp and her lifeless legs during sex both come to mind - but it was Larry's realization of the perks that come with dating a handicapped person that really made it unforgettable. The parking, the preferential treatment at the restaurant, the smiles of admiration he received, getting the Fowlers to re-invite him to the violinist's recital. It very quickly became all about Larry and what he could get out of this. Not that there's any surprise there...
Highlights from "Denise Handicap" --
- At first I didn't understand the point of Larry getting in the fight with Rosie O'Donnell. It seemed forced and their first scene together wasn't all the funny, especially since it reminded me way too much of Larry's recent fight with Jason Alexander about tipping. But the fight paid off very well at the end when Rosie took on the plight of Denise and Wendy by chasing Larry up the stairs.
- Speaking of Wendy, leave it to Larry David to assume that women in wheelchairs are as replaceable as, I dunno, toothbrushes. All the same, right?
- Larry's phone IDs were funny (Denise Handicap, Wendy Wheelchair), but Leon's (Nasty Big Tits, Janelle Sweet Ass) were funnier.
- After Leon doubted whether Larry "brought it" (aka "put your dizzle on it" or "bring the ruckus to her ass"), I was really hoping that we'd see Leon take a stab at pleasing Denise in bed.
Overall, a very solid episode. Lots of hilarious moments that made some of the lesser scenes (like Larry's fight with Ted Danson about the pie) better than they should have been. In closing, my favorite exchange of the ep:
Larry: Are you challenged?
Denise: Right now I am, yeah.

Imagine some guy you didn't like from your old job coming to your new one and staring you down right after you fuck up something major in the workplace. I'd bet dollars to donuts you'd be pretty fucking heated. Seemed that way last night. I do give props to Lesnar for being humble in defeat (not too hard to do when some Corona drinkin', burrito eatin' Mexi bangs your face in), then maintaining his composure during the 'Taker staredown. If it was orchestrated, kudos to them because I bought it hook, line & sinker!!

Theta Alpha Phi Alumni Scholarship
Once theatre majors graduate, they become alumni and the university as a whole has no stronger, or more generous and concerned group of alumni than the over 650 members of Theta Alpha Phi, Iowa Beta Chapter. These loyal alums include artistic directors of nationally known theatre companies, actors, directors, designers, teachers, scholars, scientists, homemakers, and passionate theatre amateurs across the country. In the late 1930's, TAP alum started contributing to a theatre fund that was to be used for a "new Theatre." While the fund grew, the interest generated went to scholarships – the oldest existing theatre scholarship fund. Even after Strayer-Wood Theatre was built in 1978, they ensured the tradition of sponsoring a scholarship for future generations of TAP's by raising $40,000 to establish an endowed TAP Scholarship.

News of Riverton, Lander and Fremont County, Wyoming, from the Ranger's award winning journalists.
Freshman's idol reads his fan letter on national TV
Feb 21, 2014 - By Kelli Ameling, Staff Writer
Nick Nerli said he was "shocked" when his idol read his letter on national television.
In December, the Lander Valley High School freshman class president wrote to Bill O'Reilly to express his appreciation for O'Reilly's opinions.
O'Reilly is the host of "The O'Reilly Factor" on Fox News. According to his biography, he is also an author, a syndicated columnist and a political commentator.
"For quite a while, I have been intrigued by Bill O'Reilly's intelligence expressed through educational literature," Nerli said. "I felt it was necessary to e-mail Mr. O'Reilly and express my sincere thanks for affecting my life's choices through leadership."
Nerli said he had no idea O'Reilly would read his letter, let alone put it on "The O'Reilly Factor."
Nerli's e-mail was short and sweet.
"Mr. O'Reilly, I am the freshman-class president at Lander Valley High School, and I truly enjoy your books," Nerli wrote. "I have benefited from your leadership."
According to Nerli, O'Reilly's suggestions and opinions have affected Nerli's way of perceiving information, and he has found it positive to be able to use the skills while "pondering several different options."
"Through Bill O'Reilly's philosophy, I believe that I have been able to make decisions that benefit others and myself," Nerli said.
Nerli's favorite O'Reilly book is "Pinheads and Patriots: Living in the Age of Obama." He said he finds it inspirational.
"I really appreciate that, Nick," O'Reilly said on his show. "Merry Christmas and happy holidays to everybody in Lander."
Nerli said he was "honored and pleased" that O'Reilly found his e-mail encouraging.

Though not anxiolytics, beta-receptor blockers such as propranolol and oxprenolol can be used to combat the somatic symptoms of anxiety.
Anxiolytics are generally divided into two groups of medication, benzodiazepines and non-benzodiazepines.
Benzodiazepines are prescribed for short-term relief of severe and disabling anxiety. Common medications are lorazepam (Ativan), clonazepam (Klonopin), alprazolam (Xanax), and diazepam (Valium). Benzodiazepines may also be indicated to cover the latent periods associated with the medications prescribed to treat an underlying anxiety disorder. They are used to treat a wide variety of conditions and symptoms and are usually a first choice when short-term CNS sedation is needed. Longer term uses include treatment for severe anxiety and psychosis. There is a risk of withdrawal symptoms and rebound syndrome after continuous usage past two weeks. There is also the added problem of the accumulation of drug metabolites and adverse effects.
Buspirone (BuSpar) is a serotonin 1A agonist. It lacks the sedation and the dependence associated with benzodiazepines and causes much less cognitive impairment. It may be less effective than benzodiazepines in patients who have been previously treated with benzodiazepines as the medication does not provide the sedation that these patients may expect or equate with anxiety relief.
A team from Brazil found cannabidiol (a constituent of marijuana) to be an effective anti-psychotic and anxiolytic 'CBD induced a clear anxiolytic effect and a pattern of cerebral activity compatible with anxiolytic activity. Therefore, similar to the data obtained in animal models, results from studies on healthy volunteers have strongly suggested an anxiolytic-like effect of CBD'.
Pineapple sage, or salvia elegans, is used as a treatment for anxiety in traditional Mexican medicine, and a preliminary study on mice has yielded some support for both anxiolytic and antidepressant properties.
Chlorpheniramine is the only over the counter medication reported to have some, very mild anxiolytic properties (off-label use). The drug is approved by the FDA for allergies, rhinitis, and urticaria.

Jewelry items combining various media with silver and gold will be on display at Tennessee Tech University's Appalachian Center for Craft Jan. 6 through Feb. 23.
Artist Ken Bova grew up collecting seeds and threading them into necklaces; he combines that personal history, formal training in jewelry making and metalsmithing with philosophy and religious studies to make jewelry with religious symbolism out of a variety of media.
The exhibition, Mapping Treasure: Sacred Junk, will be in the Craft Center's North Windows Gallery.
Bova teaches enameling and senior studio courses at East Carolina University in Greenville, N.C. He is also the program's area graduate coordinator for metal design.
The Craft Center's three galleries are free and open to the public from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily. The Center will close for the holidays Jan. 23 through Jan. 1, reopening Jan. 2.
The Craft Center is approximately six miles from Interstate 30 at exit 273, Smithville/McMinnville. Go south on state Route 56; turn left immediately after crossing Hurricane Bridge. This drive leads to the Craft Center.
