Holiday Bike Drive Volunteers
This year 300 kids will leave our 19th annual Holiday Bike Drive with bikes, helmets and safety education! It's exciting stuff and we need your help. The event takes place the first weekend of December.
We enlist the support of over 250 volunteers to fit helmets, lead basic safety education lessons and walk participants through the event to pick out their very own bicycle. All volunteer positions include training and plenty of warm-fuzzies as we work together to deliver hundreds of bicycles to their new owners.
In addition to your yearly fix of adorable kids on bikes, volunteering at Holiday Bike Drive comes with breakfast or a catered lunch with food provided by local favorites!
If you would like to volunteer for any of the positions outlined below, please email firstname.lastname@example.com. We will follow up with more information about the event. Thank you for your interest!
Volunteer Positions available (Updated on November 20th)

Holiday Bike Drive is a wonderful experience, help us make sure everyone gets the most of it, starting by removing language barriers. We have an urgent need for volunteer interpreters to broaden understanding of our safety education lessons, helmet fitting, and basic riding skills for non-English speaking kids and adults. You will also help translate general event directions or lead children through the event. If you speak Ukrainian or Russian, Somali, Nepali or Spanish fluently please consider volunteering as in interpreter.
Biggest Interpreter needs: 1 Vietnamese speaker, 2 Somali speakers

This role is outside,and it's December, so bring your jacket and we'll bring the hot tea! Spots available: 2 morning, 3 afternoon

This role makes sure that there are enough bikes present to offer all children have to chance to pick out their most ideal bike. You work closely with a handful of volunteers to identify size gaps, and run bikes from our overflow hallway into the main event. Spots available: 5 morning
Family Reception Room
This room is the last stop of the event for all adults and children participating. It's a space to reflect about their time in the event and share stories about what they hope to do on their bikes and what a bike means for then and their family. Volunteers in this area help wrangle excited children, lead craft and drawing projects and provide event participants with one last bit of fun before leaving the event. Spots available: 2 morning, 2 afternoon
Helmet Fitter
As a part of a 15-person team, you will be trained to perfectly fit a helmet to a very excited child.

Rated 3.8 out of 5 by 474 reviewers.
Rated 2 out of 5 by Ksc1 Dirty rooms I've stayed here before, but his trip found the hotel terribly dirty. There was a roach in the first room, so they moved me to another room where the carpet must've never been cleaned. So dirty! Also I had to call for a hair dryer and honestly didn't want to touch it , it was filthy. The pee who worked there are nice, but won't stay there again. July 1, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by marcopolotrader room had been smoked in!!!! I checked my luggage at 9am and the room was not ready which was fine. At 7pm I returned to check in and the front desk spent 15 minutes trying to decide what room to give me and even went to check the room before sending me to room 308. As soon as I opened the door it was obvious that someone had be smoking cigarettes in the room. My suspicion is that they other room they had considered for me had a similar problem. I have stayed here at least 10 previous times and my not return. June 26, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Len54 LenM54 Great Customer Service This is my second stay at the Sheraton Suites Market Center Dallas. I knew what great customer service the hotel offers. But my experience this stay tops it all. I checked in on 06/09/2012 around 3:00PM. The lobby was very busy with check out and ins. I was thankful to have a great customer service rep. to check me in. She did an excellent job under lot's of pressure. She made sure that the room was ready and smiled the whole time. I thought "She's just doing her job" until the next morning my wife if noticed a hand written slip under my door. I read "I just wanted to again thank you for you patience at check-in. To show my gratitude I've added 1000 points to your spg account! Again, I'm deeply sorry about the wait! If there's anything I can do, just ask" WOW!!! She's is not only doing her Job, but putting her heart into it. We will be back. June 19, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Cheyenne Empathetic towards customers needs My husband and I traveled from San Antonio to Dallas for a family wedding. We happened to be about an hour earlier than we expected at check-in. It was hot outside and a young man at the front desk offered us both a bottle of cold water that quenched our thirst. He also got us our room ready prior to the check-in time.You have a very nice, courteous and professional staff. June 19, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by sarah7785 Food needs improvement I stay at Sheraton hotels many times throughout the year for business. Overall, the rooms are nice and the staff was accommodating. However, the hotel restaurant really needs improvement. I have visited this hotel several times over the past couple of years and I'm always disappointed with the food. June 18, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by KmarkTemp Management Team Lacks Follow-Through After several attempts to correct my bill, (finally happened).....I was promised by the CHA that someone would check-in to my points being rewarded/returned to my account. I did receive phone call from both the CHA and another manager...both promising follow-up and to call me back. Both seemed to state policy that is takes up to "5 days to see the points"....I have been patient.....I have tried to call back, but at this point I have to dedicate my time to my job.......not a hotel stay. It is very unfortunate because the location of this hotel is quite good, the rooms are nice....but up-keep, follow through and lack of attention to detail make it receive the poor ratings. I tried. June 13, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by CaliforniaSam Great hotel in convenient location! I've stayed here 4 times in the past 8 months. This hotel is conveniently located to everything in Dallas. The rooms are modern, spacious and clean. The hotel staff is very responsive. Great customer service! They recognize me when I check-in. June 13, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by Manju Did not clean my room during my stay My room was not serviced. Left my room about 11:30am. Prior to leaving, I straighten all my stuff up and put all the towels on the floor. When I returned about 7pm, I called the front desk add asked if housekeeping was still working. She said yes and would make sure they got my room. I got dressed and went out. When I returned at 2am, my room was still the same...dirty towels on the floor, 2 day old food in my trash from when I check in on Fridsy night, trash overflowing,etc.. I was very displeased. When I spoke with them at 2am, they offered me a breakfast coupon I did not use. Breakfast doesn't make up for poor customer service. I travel a lot and never had this problem. Also the tub and siink stopped up when using it and the toilet ran but those were things I tried to deal with. However, an uncleaned room even after I called and told them is not acceptable. June 11, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Rick22 Surprisingly great experience Overall, this was one of my best sheraton stays. I wasn't expecting such a positive experience at a category 2. In fact, I was a little nervous. But the staff and stay were just great. June 9, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by mrstmath Great Value The staff is great. The room is spacious. Club lounge is good for breakfast and light dinner. Have stayed five times already in past two months and have already booked two more stays for June. June 2, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by MrVicci Great Stay! Staff and facility made my business stay very pleasant. Staff was courtious, friendy and very professional. I would recommond hotel. May 31, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by GW2012 Excellent stay Entire staff committed to highest level of service. Amazing value for staying so close to Uptown and Downtown. Was a welcomed Platinum guest. Would only recommend if at all possible an upgrade to the Club lounge food/beverage offerings. The breakfast was unappealing and very crowded (is this really only for qualified guests, or open access) and in the evening there was no beer/wine available even for purchase. May 31, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by GratefulinDallas Excellent Customer Service I was am patient at UT Southwestern and had to stay an extra day for some additional testing. The staff was amazing. They made a difficult day just a little bit easier. I have to travel a lot to UTSW. I live over 4 hours away from the hospital and I was by myself. I am very grateful. The hotel was safe, affordable, close to the hospital and the customer service was to be commended. Thank you. May 30, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by JJMS Great location and stay! Michael and his staff met and exceeded our expectations. Hotel was very nice and conveniently located. We've been staying recently at a nearby property when in Dallas. However, we'll stay at the Sheraton again. May 30, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by nelskw Nice Stay! Michael- Thanks for your great attention to detail and a great stay at the Sheraton last weekend. We stay at Starwood properties frequently and we were very pleasantly surprised by what a great production you guys put on! The club lounge was a really nice treat for breakfast and espressos & staff there in the lounge did great. Front desk staff were efficient and pleasant. Room was very clean. Overall, awesome job. Only suggestion would be the addition of a safe in the rooms. Thanks so much. May 16, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Manju This hotel does not utilize its full potential The hotel becomes over-priced after they charge you for parking space and in-room internet service. I also expected better inside-pool conditions. The ambiance of the pool is gloomy, and dirty. Water was extremely cold, and also very dirty. May 15, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Sleepingbeauty7 Slept like a baby!! Only ONE complaint , from the time I stepped off the elevator onto the third floor, untill the end of my stay (2) days.. The hall ways smelled like you were walking past a really smelly dumpster. It was just odd. Other than that everything was great!!! April 30, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by mwruzzoli Great Accomodations! This is my second stay in this particular DFW hotel. It is clean, rooms are comfy, staff are friendly - and it's close to everything. I love the fact the rooms are suites....feels like you have your own apartment. April 11, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by JG22 Poor Customer Service I thought the customer service was pretty much non - existent. Although I will say there was a really nice lady at the front desk, but she was the exception. April 9, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by monie32 This is a GREAT hotel! My family and I stayed here during my daughter's spring break which was 7 days... We had an excellent stay! The Staff was very friendly and helpful. Ashley was a big help to us!! We were trying to find things to do with our children and she gave me enough things to do that she basically helped me plan our whole week there... lol! Even though the pool area was under maintenance, we were still able to use the pool next door and we thought that was excellent... the suites were spacious enough for me my husband and 2 children and the area was really quiet. If you are ever in Dallas, you must stay here... April 2, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by Melrose512 Horrible Service! I did not sleep at this hotel, but instead ate at the restaurant. The experience was horrible from the time we had to seat ourselves to the moment we got the check. Several tables were filthy, leaving slim pickings for my party of three. The other tables only sat two at the most. We ordered queso and were told they were out. However, it turns out there was still the option of chips and salsa, but our server didn't offer it or any other comparable appetizer. Then once we ordered our food, we had to ask for all condiments that would normally come with our meals. Never have I had to ask for gravy for chicken fried chicken! We asked for a drink menu and were told that unless we knew what we wanted, we would have to go to the bar to order our drinks. Wow. Our water was never refilled, and we didn't see our server again until my sister got up to go to the restroom and our server assumed we were leaving. She rushed over to the table and asked if we needed anything. We asked for the check, but instead our server told us the total verbally. It was like pulling teeth to get her to print the check in order for me to SEE the itemized total. I was beyond ready to settle the tab and leave. I have never received service so bad in my life. If you want a dirty, unprofessional, and rude experience, eat here! March 13, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Amir23 BEST SLEEP I EVER HAD This is one of my favorite Hotel in the DFW area. For the past year I have stayed there several times, and everytime I check out I'm already thinking when is the next time I will check in!!!! I love the facility especially the balcony and the indoor swimming Poool. The BED is really what keep me coming back as I sink into heaven and sleep on the clouds! March 6, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by jeff great front desk staff when i arrived the girl at the desk was attentive and pleasant. the suite while small was nice and decorated in what i would say a contemporary cozy motif. the bathroom was a good size compared to the rest of the suite with a nice hard surface vanity top. the batteries in the tv remote were bad and the front desk sent some new ones right up.on our second day housekeeping did not leave any clean towels in the room and the front desk sent some right up. the club lounge was again decorated in contempory cozy style. as i find with all sheratons the food selection is poor. i needed to print something and the printer was out of paper so i called the front desk and they had some sent right up. when i went to the restaurant for breakfast i found that all of the tables that were not occupied had not been bused. (probably 60% of the restaurant). there were no clean plates or silverware due to this. the food, once we were able to get a plate and eating utensils was pretty good however. i had a problem with the wifi code and the young man at the desk took care of it for me. we needed a cab on both days to get to the convention center and on sunday when i asked for a cab to be hailed for me the courtesy van driver volunteered to drive us. he was very nice and even pointed out some notable facts about the town as we drove. he even detoured us so we could drive past the kennedy assasination spot. except for one day in the restaurant, i cant say enough good things about the staff at this hotel. February 28, 2012
Rated 1 out of 5 by JAG21 Not the Quality I expected from Starwood Of all the Starwood experiences I have had, (10 or so in the last year alone) this was by far my worst. I was given a room at the club level which advertised a special club level breakfast as well as "hors d'oeuvres" in the afternoon. The food was extremely sub-par, almost unedible, not to mention that breakfast (hard toast and cold scrambled eggs) was taken away 20 minutes before breakfast was supposed to end. The "hors d'oeuvres" consisted of breakfast bars and "rice and sauce" one night, and breakfast bars and a sad attempt at tamales the second night, which they ran out of an hour before "happy hour" ended. Furthermore, the picture on my TV was extremely fuzzy and the room had an unpleasant smell that my guests noticed as well. The bed was great as per all my starwood experiences, but due to the other downfalls, I I will not be staying here again. February 2, 2012
Rated 2 out of 5 by marcopolotrader good location, worn out and new manager started during peak occupancy I've stayed here 8 times because of the rate and location but this place has been run down and mismanaged. I was told that the new manager started on 1/20/2012 which is a tough time to start since I believe peak occupancy is 1/18-1/22. The restaurant was understaffed and put out pretty basic fare. Our room had a 4" hole in the carpet between the beds and elevators worked but mechanically are pretty worn out. The high school kid running the club lounge on weekends was polite but not trained like the old guy midweek. January 25, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by Nsja Customer service was not good I love SPG program but this time I was dissappointed with the service. I stayed for two nights, at the morning on the second day I reported to the front desk that the shower was not working properly, at the evening when I returned and took a shower found out that they did not fix the shower. When I checked out the lady at the front desk was very nice and apologized for the issue even offered me an snack or a soda on the house but I told her that the only thing I wanted was that they pay attention and resolve the complaints made by the customers. January 19, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by AdrianB Outstanding Service This was my third stay in two months and each time the experience improved. In particular, the Guest Service employee Ashley went above and beyond my expectations. If I had a request, she made sure that it was taken care of each time. Thanks Ashley! January 12, 2012
Rated 4 out of 5 by Bob123 Dallas Trip Staff was very helpful especially Tamara. Location was good and the breakfast buffet was outstanding! Biggest disappointment was the cleanliness of the pool. January 7, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by Martinn Close enough to Home The staff and concierges made my family and I feel right at home. The view of the Dallas skyline was amazing, the open air balcony was awesome, and the location is perfect. It was nice to be out of the hustle of Dallas and still be so close. Only minutes outside of town, I was able to drive, take a cab or hitch a ride on the Tram into Dallas. December 30, 2011
Rated 4 out of 5 by Aviationkiwi Nice Renovated The location next to the highway is not the most appealing, but the hotel has been renovated and the staff is friendly and very responsive to the hotel guest needs. The $7.95 parking is excessive, especially since the lot is not secured. Overrall it was a great stay and would consider staying at this Sheraton again, but the parking fees must go.

continued While it is uncomfortable for many, the fact is that some local shelters must euthanize animals —even those who are great with children, healthy, and loving —due to lack of space. Cuse Pit Crew asks that before you shop, to consider adoption. Or at least, visit a shelter like Wanderers' Rest Humane Association in Canastota before buying a pet.
"Our dogs and cats aren't here because they're 'bad' or unadoptable; it's because of irresponsible people who don't spay or neuter, over-breed for profit, or thoughtlessly discard litters of kittens and puppies," said Mark Christensen, executive director of Wanderers' Rest Humane Association. "When looking at adopting a dog, it's essential to judge each dog as an individual, NOT by their breed. With proper training and socializing, any dog can become a great family pet. Even adult dogs respond well to training —we just ask that you come see for yourself what great animals are up for adoption,"
Perhaps Wanderers' Rest says it best: "they survive, because we survive, because of you." In order to prevent an unusually high euthanasia rate this summer, Cuse Pit Crew is asking for the community to step up and help local animals by helping the shelters. You can do that through adoption or by tax deductable donations. Many shelters also allow you to "foster" a dog or cat for a brief period of time to get them out of the shelter environment. For a complete list of local shelters and rescues, visit cusepitcrew.org/rescues.php.

Blues ready for another shot at Kings
Updated: April 29, 2013, 8:15 PM ETAssociated Press
ST. LOUIS -- This time around, the St. Louis Blues are determined not to be a mere speed bump for the Los Angeles Kings.
Coach Ken Hitchcock likes his team's chances of making a deep playoff run, but scoffed away a suggestion that the Blues and Kings have a lot of similarities. After sweeping the Blues in the second round last spring en route to the franchise's first Stanley Cup, Los Angeles won all three games this season, too, and have taken eight in a row overall.
"Look, we haven't ...

The Israeli music star won the chance to sing the Hebrew and English song "Ding Dong," written by Zvika Pik, during a contest Tuesday night broadcast on Israeli television, where viewers voted for their choice. She won Eurovision in 1998 with the song "Diva," also written by Pik.
Dana was known as Yaron Cohen before a sex change operation two decades ago.
Eurovision will be held May 14 in Dusseldorf, Germany. Dana will compete first in a semifinal two days earlier.

Why call a purple orchid green-winged? If you look closely at the blossoms, you will see that the side petals ('the wings') have green stripes. This orchid is also known as the green-veined orchid. The green-winged orchid grows mostly in damp, calcium-rich, scanty hay fields and is legally protected. The flower stalk consists of 5-25 loosely grouped helmet-shaped flowers. It often grows together with yellow-rattle. The unusual association of green-winged orchid and yellow-rattle is probably not found outside of the Netherlands.

Norwegian has mounted a defence of its operating model after criticism from pilot union ALPA.
In a statement issued on 17 December, ALPA accuses Norwegian of seeking to "exploit legal and regulatory loopholes" to "gain economic advantage over US airlines".
The union is calling on the US Department of Transportation to reject a foreign air carrier permit application from Norwegian Air International, an Irish sister company to which the Oslo-based low-cost carrier is transferring its long-haul business. "The exploitation of the laws intended to prevent labour-law shopping cannot be allowed to stand," says ALPA president Lee Moak.
Norwegian responds: "Those familiar with the airline industry also know that competitive wages and conditions are not country-specific – but rather follow an international standard."
The airline, which bases its long-haul flightcrew in Bangkok, serves the Thai capital and US destinations from Scandinavia. It will add US routes from the UK's London Gatwick airport next year.
Its long-haul pilots have European Aviation Safety Agency certificates and are attracted, the airline argues, by "highly competitive conditions on a par with both US and other European carriers", plus "the opportunity to fly the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, a brand-new aircraft type that offers improved in-flight working conditions".
The airline says it "always follows the rules and regulations in all markets we operate", and that it is reacting to market opportunities created by the open-skies agreement, which "seeks to transform the transatlantic market by removing barriers and protectionist schemes".
Cabin-crew bases that Norwegian intends to open in Fort Lauderdale and New York next year will create "several hundred" new US jobs, says the carrier.
"We encourage American pilots to come work for us," it adds. "To do so, they will need an EASA licence."

Gallery: Beautiful Balmoral Water Reservoir House by Riddel Architectur...
Nestled behind a hedge at the top of a typical residential street in Brisbane, Australia, a large water tower has gone domestic. Faced with obsolescence, the 1940s cylindrical concrete tower in the Brisbane suburb of Balmoral has been converted into a unique residence by Riddel Architecture. The house features a doughnut plan with rooms arranged around a central atrium. Adaptive reuse prevailed over demolition of the Balmoral Water Reservoir as the heavily reinforced concrete walls would have been too difficult to remove.

Its beautiful, but knowing current Australian house prices, it must be $3000000 at least. Good for those who can afford to do it.

I remember a similar structure in Alhambra, California, but it was many years ago. And I don\\\'t think as elegant at this.

Today we made some water tests in studio. I saw on the internet some very cool examples of water art and i decided to give a try.
We used Tempera colors mixed with water and milk. Probably we will test other materials soon to understand how they react mixed with water.
The lighting was made using two Canon 580Ex compact flashes on both sides of the small aquarium we used for the tests.
The camera was a Canon 5D Mark III with a 35mm f/2 lens. We shot at 1/200 with f22. Flash were in manual 1/16 of the power.

Federal Facility Security:
Additional Actions Needed to Help Agencies Comply with Risk Assessment Methodology Standards
GAO-14-86: Published: Mar 5, 2014. Publicly Released: Apr 7, 2014.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:
- Full Report:
- Accessible Text:
(202) 512-2834
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
What GAO Found
Three of the nine selected agencies' risk assessment methodologies that GAO reviewed—the Department of Energy (DOE), the Department of Justice (DOJ), and the Department of State (State)—fully align with the Interagency Security Committee's (ISC) risk assessment standards, but six do not—the Department of the Interior (DOI), the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), the Federal Protective Service (FPS), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC), and the Office of Personnel Management (OPM). As a result, these six agencies may not have a complete understanding of the risks facing approximately 52,000 federal facilities and may be less able to allocate security resources cost-effectively at the individual facility level or across the agencies' facility portfolios. ISC's The Risk Management Process for Federal Facilities ( RMP ) standard requires that agencies' facility risk assessment methodologies must (1) consider all of the undesirable events identified in the RMP as possible risks to federal facilities, and (2) assess the threat, consequences, and vulnerability to specific undesirable events. Six of the nine agencies' methodologies GAO reviewed do not align with ISC's standards because the methodologies do not (1) consider all of the undesirable events in the RMP or (2) assess threat, consequences, or vulnerability to specific undesirable events. For example, five agencies (DOI, VA, FEMA, FPS, and NRC), do not assess the threat, consequences, or vulnerability to specific undesirable events, as ISC requires. The reasons why varied; for example, VA said that its methodology was in place before ISC issued its standards. Officials from that agency told us they were working to update their methodology.
ISC has issued a series of physical security standards and guidance to assist member agencies with developing their risk assessment methodologies, but does not know the extent to which its 53 member agencies comply with its standards, including its risk assessment standards, because it does not monitor agencies' compliance. ISC does not monitor compliance or have an approach to do so that incorporates outreach to agencies regarding their compliance status. Officials stated that they would like to monitor agencies' compliance, but limited resources and other priorities, such as developing standards and guidance, have prevented them from doing so. However, ISC has the authority to create a working group from its member agencies to help it perform its duties. In the absence of ISC's monitoring, agencies' risk assessment methodologies may not align with ISC's standards. In addition, although ISC issued risk assessment guidance in August 2013, this guidance is limited. For example, the guidance does not describe how to incorporate threat, consequence, or vulnerability assessments of specific undesirable events into a risk assessment methodology. Not having appropriate guidance is inconsistent with federal internal-control standards designed to promote effectiveness and efficiency.
Why GAO Did This Study
The 2012 shooting at the Anderson Federal Building in Long Beach, California, demonstrates that federal facilities and their employees as well as the public who visit federal buildings continue to be the targets of violence. The Federal Protective Service and about 30 other federal agencies are responsible for protecting civilian federal facilities and their occupants from potential threats, in part, by assessing risks to their facilities. ISC—an interagency organization led by the Department of Homeland Security— issues standards for facility protection.
GAO was asked to examine how federal agencies assess risk to their facilities. This report assesses (1) the extent to which selected ISC member agencies' facility risk assessment methodologies align with ISC's risk assessment standards, and (2) how ISC assists member agencies in developing risk assessment methodologies and monitors compliance with these standards. GAO selected 9 of 53 ISC member agencies based on their missions and number of facilities. GAO compared each selected agency's risk assessment methodology to ISC's risk assessment standards. ISC is required to enhance security in and protection of federal facilities government-wide; recommendations GAO makes are to ISC and not its member agencies.
What GAO Recommends
GAO recommends that ISC take action to assess member agencies' compliance and provide additional risk- assessment methodology guidance. DHS concurred with GAO's recommendations.

Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Open
Comments: When we confirm what actions the agency has taken in response to this recommendation, we will provide updated information.
Recommendation: To help ensure that federal agencies are developing and using appropriate risk assessment methodologies, the Secretary of Homeland Security should direct the ISC to conduct outreach to identify which member agencies have not developed risk assessment methodologies that align with ISC standards and develop a mechanism to monitor and ensure compliance of all its member agencies.
Agency Affected: Department of Homeland Security
Status: Open
Comments: When we confirm what actions the agency has taken in response to this recommendation, we will provide updated information.
Recommendation: To help ensure that federal agencies are developing and using appropriate risk assessment methodologies, the Secretary of Homeland Security should direct the ISC to supplement the risk assessment guidance contained in The Risk Management Process for Federal Facilities with: (1) information on how to incorporate threat, consequence, and vulnerability assessments of specific undesirable events into a risk assessment methodology and (2) examples of risk assessment methodologies that ISC determines comply with its standards.

3 Days in Antalya

Guide to Antalya for Families
I was there on 14/06/15 and played the shooting game to win a prize. I shot the target and the bullet broke without the target moving. The target is fixed. This is a scam and the operator is scamming the poor kids.
for all .. old and young .. you will find fun .. 5 TL per game is a reasonable price .. don't miss it
Very good for all. It was great fun for all the family and we went there twice. Great for the kids and very reasonable.
What a lovely area for all to enjoy, teenagers dancing to music, children with parents laughing and enjoying a picnic, couldn't believe we were in the middle of a city
The fun park is ok in general but is smaller than expected especially for such a turistical region. There are zero english indications and employees barely understands english langurage. However, for kids is nice enough. kids are enjoying in general eevrywhere. So if you less than 15-20 km away from the park, its worth going for kids, otherwise is costing...
It is a very nice place esp. for kids the enjoyed very much, take care for safty. The people don't speak English, but it was ok
Lots of amusing things to try for kids and adults.
Buy tokens - 10 for 30 TL - every ride is one token.
English level is very low - focus on local people and Russians
Lots of shade and beautiful views across the sea. Lots going on in the evenings too
Aktur Park is about 3 miles west of the centre and adjacent to Migros shopping centre. At the gate you can buy 8 Jetons (tokens) for 30 TLR. Each ride costs one token. The park has a huge variety of rides including a simulator, ghost train, twister coaster and plent of stomach churning rides. We visited twice, once in the...

YIELD: Serves 6 as a first course
In a small bowl stir together lemon juice, orange-flower water, sugar, cinnamon, cayenne, and salt until sugar is dissolved.
With a serrated knife cut away orange peels and pith, discarding them, and cut oranges crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange orange slices on a platter and pour lemon juice mixture over them. Let orange slices macerate 30 minutes.

Overheating KTM 640 Adventure
View Single Post
neophyte serendipity
Joined: Dec 2002
Location: USA
Oddometer: 2,738
went/going through the same thing...
I have an '03 640 Adventure with similar symptoms. When I first got it, the thing rarely got above 3 bars. A few months later (& to the present) it hits 6-7 bars & I've had the temp light come on a couple times.
I tried water wetter & Engine Ice and, if anything, it made it worse! Deionized water & Motorex coolant seems to be the deal - water wetter doesn't seem to affect anything too much - can't recommend Engine Ice - at least for this application.
Here's the interesting thing - I'm in the somewhat-unique position of having had 2 separate IMOs in my 640 within the 1st year. The first computer rarely went above 3 bars and
went above 4 the whole time it was in. The second computer runs at 3-4 bars on highway & will jump to 5 at stop lights on a regular basis. I pulled the thermostate & water pump - both good. No air in system (checked bleed hole near spark plug), flushed system 3 or 4 times & tried different coolants...
These computers seem to be calibrated differently!
I'm also thinking the 640s (& the 950s from the reports I hear) are fairly succeptable to weather/temperature changes. My bike rarely went over 3 bars in winter, in summer I find it at 4-7 bars a lot - though in Southern CA there's not a huge difference in summer/winter weather...

25 Explosive Disney World Fireworks Photos
Who doesn't love to shoot some fireworks!
Well, we are not actually shooting off fireworks ourselves but through the magic of photography :-) We thought it would be fun to post 10 firework photos that we have taken at Disney. We soon realized though that 10 photos became 15 and then 20 which finally ended up at 25 Disney Firework Photos.
So sit back and enjoy fireworks like only Disney can do!
…now everybody rush out of the park and push your way onto a bus back to your hotel :-)

Luna demo FPS
Just to gauge my new 7800GT, running Fraps what frame rate are you seeing in the Luna demo when the camera zooms primarily to her face. I'm getting around 25 FPS.
Re: Luna demo FPS
Well, I guess I will post my results. I am getting 17 fps with my A64 3200 @ 2.4/BFG 6800GT OC/2GB Corsair 3200 Value ram. I assume you are talking about the point where she just makes it up the stairs and the big eye looks at her and then the camera zooms in on her?
Re: Luna demo FPS
Re: Luna demo FPS
Ok, i am getting 3fps there

Big kid at heart, I want kids of my own someday. You?
Yes indeed, I'm a big and tall guy, the teddy bear type who people tend to notice as strong and kind. Perhaps in contrast to that 'big guy' impression, I'm artistic and creative and enjoy drawing/painting and being active. I like to think and I like to hike and I like to box and occasionally, you might catch me breaking out into impressions or mimic-ing singers on the radio. Not something to bet money on, just sayin'. But in the rest of real life, I'm honest, easy-going, loyal, strong, and I have a great sense of humor. Honestly, I've never been one for casual dating, and at this point in my life, I'd really like to find a partner for the long term. I'm at a stable point in my life and career, and enjoy my off hours. I can grill a mean filet (Overall, not afraid to share in the kitchen duties!), love to watch the Cards or Diamondbacks, take in a movie or head out for a weekend getaway. Are you the woman I'm looking for? You'd enjoy those things? Plus you love to laugh and connect, even on a silly/geeky level? Like a Marshall/Lilly couple, not afraid to high five each other after shared moments of awesomeness? Someone who I can share my likes and interests with, and hopefully develop new interests with together? And most important, someone I can eventually start a family with? Your smile, your laugh, your sense of humor – these are the important things – so here's your chance – get in touch!
Camping , Coffee and conversation , Business networking , Cooking , Dining out , Hobbies and crafts , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Playing cards , Playing sports , Video games , Watching sports , Wine tasting
Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Cycling, Football, Other types of exercise, Swimming, Tennis / Racquet sports, Walking / Hiking, Weights / Machines
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I like Birds, Cats, Dogs, Exotic Pets, Fish
Call me a dog person who doesn't currently have dogs!
Middle of the Road
Locally I like Totti's Asain Fusion, Los Dos Melinos, and F&B. I've done a fair amount of traveling: lots of the U.S. and several overseas destinations: Tahiti, Moorea, Cura?ao, and Cozumel. One place I absolutely want to revisit is Ireland.
Music? just about anything. I'm big into movies, almost any genre, and enjoy experiencing them with others. TV Shows, sitcoms like Friends, Seinfeld, Community, HIMYM, as well as drama/epic shows like Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Dexter, et
I enjoy hiking and boxing, though not necessarily together or in that order. Trying new restaurants, wine-tasting, cycling, water sports, camping, movies (in theater or at home), hanging with friends or family, sporting events – it's a long list!
I just finished the Ender's Game series; favorite authors include Orson Scott Card, George R. R. Martin, Michael Chrichton, and Dan Brown. A few movie faves: Pulp Fiction, Jurassic Park, Lion King – I tend to enjoy them big and imaginative!

The aerial view is killer.
I viewed it full screen over on Flicker and am wondering if perhaps a hot air balloon was used to snap the pic. Check out the large shadow over Mickey's left 'ear' in the floral. That combined with the sharpness of the photo seems to imply a lack of motion while the photo was snapped.
It's a great shot.

fx 5200 and RH9 cant change resolution
Okay....I have tried EVERYTHING to get my resolution changed to 1024x768 in RedHat9 with my FX 5200 card. I have the latest drivers, so that shouldnt be the problem. When I change the resolution, It says it updated the XF86Config file, but when I restart, the resolution is still 800x600. This is getting very frustrating. Any help would be great.
1 Attachment(s)
Here is my XFree86 log file...
NOTE: I did not try to change the resolution before this boot. Also, notice the "cant use default" errors towards the end of the file....I think this may be the problem.

But whereas before, discipline used to flow from elected leadership down, today it flows from factional leadership up.
And like petulant preschoolers, Wall Street craves—and needs—rules, and the discipline to enforce them consistently.
discipline, detail, sweat, repetition, the study of those who came before you.
early 13c., "penitential chastisement; punishment," from Old French descepline (11c.) "discipline, physical punishment; teaching; suffering; martyrdom," and directly from Latin disciplina "instruction given, teaching, learning, knowledge," also "object of instruction, knowledge, science, military discipline," from discipulus (see disciple (n.)).
Sense of "treatment that corrects or punishes" is from notion of "order necessary for instruction." The Latin word is glossed in Old English by þeodscipe. Meaning "branch of instruction or education" is first recorded late 14c. Meaning "military training" is from late 15c.; that of "orderly conduct as a result of training" is from c.1500.

Written in 1970 but not published till 1976, Mauser represents the culmination of Heiner Müller's long preoccupation with Brecht's Lehrstücke [learning plays] and remains his most confronting and provocative play. Like Brecht's Die Massnahme [The Measures Taken, 1930], of which it is both a critique and a development, the play was effectively banned in the GDR. It presented the problem of revolutionary violence and terror during the period of war communism and civil war in Russia in such an uncompromising manner that it threatened the party's efforts to "move on" from the earthquake caused by Kruschchev's condemnation of Stalin at the twentieth Party Congress.
