Best Management Practices Home
Rinse water from car washing and brake or engine cleaning can harm wildlife if it enters a storm drain.
DO use a commercial car wash that recycles water or discharges it directly to the sewer for treatment at the local wastewater plant.
DO wash your car on a lawn, gravel driveway, or area where soapy water will not run into a street or storm drain.
DO use soap sparingly if you must wash your car at home – even biodegradable soap is toxic to wildlife.
DO pour your bucket of soapy water down the sink when you're done.
DO use paper towels to wipe brake dust off wheels before washing.
DON'T use spray-on wheel cleaners – or rinse them off – where rinse water might flow to a street or storm drain.
When you're working on your car, remember that any drips or spills left in a street or driveway can flow to a storm drain and on to the Bay!
DO use plastic tarp and drip pans when your car is leaking, and when you're working on it. Fix leaks as soon as possible!
DO use sawdust or cat litter for spills. Sweep it up, bag it and put it in the trash. For large spills, use a squeegee and dust pan first.
DON'T hose down your work area!
Most brake pads contain copper, which wears off as the pads wear, and contributes significant amounts of toxic stormwater pollution to our creeks and Bay. DO clean brake dust off of wheels with paper towels, and dispose of towels in the trash.
DO ask your auto parts supplier about no-copper or low-copper brake pads for your car.
DON'T clean wheels, brakes, or brake pads where brake pad dust, cleaners, or rinse water can flow to a street or storm drain.
Many engine degreasers contain highly toxic solvents that are dangerous to work with and harmful to the environment.
DO read labels carefully before you buy. Avoid products containing Tricholoroethane or tricholoroethylene, Naphtha, Nonylphenol ethoxylate.
DO use rags instead of water when you're cleaning.
DO use non-flammable, more biodegradable alternatives to highly toxic degreasers. Try limonene (a citrus-based solvent). Put any rinse water down a sink or toilet – never into a storm drain.
DON'T clean your engine at home unless you can contain and properly dispose of the rinse water – a hazardous waste.

(Sep 10, 2009) On August 28, 2009, Thai political activist Darunee Charnchoengsilpakul was sentenced by a criminal court to 18 years of imprisonment on charges of insulting the royal family, in violation of Thailand's law on lese majeste, during a July 2008 speech he made at a political rally for ousted former Premier Thaksin Shinawatra. Darunee's lawyer says he intends to appeal the verdict. (Jaclyn Belczyk, Thailand Court Sentences Political Activist to 18 Years for Royal Defamation, JURIST, Sept. 2, 2009, available at http://jurist.law.pitt.edu/paperchase/2009/09/thailand-court-sentences-p
olitical.php.) King Bhumibol Adulyadej, who has been on the throne for more than 60 years, is Thailand's longest reigning sovereign. (Marwaan Macan-Markar, THAILAND: Lese Majeste Law Tests Mettle of Human Rights Groups, Aug. 31, 2009, available at http://ipsnews.net/news.asp?idnews=48272; Michael Aquino, Thailand's Strict "Lese Majeste" Laws - The Thai Reverence for the King, ABOUT.com, http://goseasia.about.com/od/thaipeopleculture/a/lesemajeste.htm (last visited Sept. 8, 2009).)
Darunee has been in custody since July 2008. On June 23, 2009, a judge had ordered a closed trial for her case, on grounds of national security. (Darren Schuettler, Thai Lese-Majeste Trial Shut "for National Security," REUTERS, June 23, 2009, available at http://in.reuters.com/article/worldNews/idINIndia-40536920090623?pageNum
ber=1&virtualBrandChannel=0.) Known as "Da Torpedo" because of her fiery rhetoric, Darunee was convicted of three violations of the Criminal Code provision on lese majeste; a single breach can incur the maximum 15-year sentence. In its verdict, the three-judge panel found that "she intended to insult and make threats to the king and the queen" (Macan-Markar, supra) and sentenced her to six years on each count, consisting of "three different remarks deemed insulting to the monarchy during public political rallies …," according to the SYDNEY MORNING HERALD. (Darunee Sentenced to 18 Years, Political Prisoners in Thailand website, Aug. 29, 2009, available at http
nced-to-18-years/; the article also has a hyperlink to a report in Thai on the verdict.)
Darunee's decision not to plead guilty was unusual; most defendants "choose to plead guilty and beg the king for mercy on conviction," because "the ill-defined laws are almost impossible to beat even in a case that is open to public scrutiny," and Thai law allows more lenient sentencing for defendants who admit the charges against them. (Id., citing to THE FINANCIAL TIMES, Aug. 28, 2009.) Article 112 of Chapter 1, "Offenses Against the King, the Queen, the Heir-Apparent, and the Regent," of Title I, "Offenses Relating to the Security of the Kingdom," of Book II, "Specific Offenses" of the Criminal Code of Thailand stipulates: "[w]hoever defames, insults or threatens the King, the Queen, the Heir-Apparent or the Regent, shall be punished with imprisonment of three to fifteen years." (THE CRIMINAL CODE 76 (Bangkok, Sãtphais~n, 2007).) The Constitution states, moreover: "The King shall be enthroned in a position of revered worship and shall not be violated. No person shall expose the King to any sort of accusation or action" (sect. 8). (Thailand Constitution 2007, ASIANLII, http://www.asianlii.org/th/legis/const/2007/1.html#C02 (last visited Sept. 8, 2009).)
The sentence, described as "the harshest delivered by the courts in recent times," comes in the wake of a ten-year term of imprisonment handed down in April to another Thai national for violation of the lese majeste law through posting of an image on the Internet. (Macan-Markar, supra.) Moreover, the trial is reportedly "the latest in a slew of lese-majeste cases critics say are stifling dissent and freedom of speech." (Schuettler, supra.)
Concern has grown over the enforcement of the lese majeste laws in Thailand, where more than 30 cases are pending, including police investigations of a former government spokesman and Thaksin ally, a respected Buddhist philosopher, a leftist Thai academic who has fled abroad, and a political activist who refused to rise for the playing of the royal anthem before a movie screening at a cinema. (Macan-Markar, supra.) In addition, the Thai Ministry of Information and Communication Technology was reported to have requested that the police investigate some 5,000 websites for possible lese majeste violations; previously, the authorities indicated that "over 10,000 websites were being monitored for comments that allegedly defamed the monarchy." It has been reported that the government has spent 42.2 million baht (about US$1.28 million) on an Internet firewall to block websites carrying anti-monarchy remarks. (Id.)
On the other hand, in an opinion piece published in the BANGKOK POST under the heading "Legal Viewpoint," Dr. Borwornsak Uwann, a Fellow of the Royal Institute and Secretary-General of the King Prajadhipok Institute, presented his view of lese majeste in Thailand, which included the following explanatory remarks on the broader context of the law:
The lese majeste offence means not just harm to the monarch but also to the "father" of most Thais - a serious social offence comparable to ingratitude towards one's own father. It is therefore not surprising that the "father" himself does not want to take offence (as apparent in His Majesty's remarks on December 4, 2005) and feels that criticism of him can be done. Most Thais, however, still wish to maintain the law in order to protect the institution they revere from harm.
In other words, lese majeste is regarded as not just harmful to the person insulted but to Thai society, ethics and culture. This is in line with the criminological principle that certain acts may be criminalised if there is a societal consensus that they are harmful to society and constitute a limitation on freedom of expression. It is not dissimilar to the limitation on freedom of expression as regards criticism of God and the Prophet in Muslim countries, which is not understood by some Westerners … .
(Dr. Borwornsak Uwanno, Thai Culture and the Law on Lese Majeste, BANGKOK POST, Apr. 8, 2009 [Part Two of Thai Laws Reflecting Thai Culture and Ethics], available at http://www.bangkokpost.com/opinion/opinion/14702/thai-culture-and-the-la
In March 2009, the government was considering amending some aspects of the lese majeste laws, in particular the means of enforcement, with Prime Minister Abhisit Vejjajiva acknowledging that they have been abused in the past and that "a group of 50 academics and others from around the world" were urging reform. (Karen Percy, Thailand Mulls Reforming Lese-Majeste Laws, ABC NEWS (Australia), Mar. 6, 2009, available at http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2009/03/06/2509931.htm.) Thus far, however, it appears that no action has been taken.

Hundreds of fans flocked to Central Coast Comic Con on Sunday, the second day of a two-day convention for all things geek at the Ventura County Fairgrounds in Ventura.
Inspired by the larger spectacle known as San Diego Comic-Con, the Ventura convention drew visitors eager to collect autographs, take photos with performers and writers, and participate in gaming, contests and other attractions.
Andrew Metzter, 23, showed up as Captain Jack Sparrow, capturing the spotlight by staying in character.
"It's a chance for nerds, geeks and fans to share their love for everything pop culture," Metzter said.
His girlfriend, Courtney Licata, 21, dressed as Bane, one of the more physically power foes of the "Batman" series.
Petite and soft-spoken, Licata said he is her favorite villain.
"Just because he's a guy doesn't mean I can't be big bad Bane," she said.
The San Miguel building featured some 65 vendors, 50 artists and 35 celebrities. Other halls offered panel discussions, workshops and activities for children.
For most visitors, the key attraction was meeting other fans of comic books, film, TV, anime and horror.
Dressed as Spock from "Star Trek," Carolyn Stankis, 46, said her son and she have attended San Diego Comic-Con but that they loved the smaller vibe of the Central Coast version.
"Both are great because we get to be who we really are around like-minded people," she said. "Nerds."
A cosplayer dressed as Marvel Comics mercenary Dead Pool, her son, Cole Whelan, 13, said he spent a lot of the day taking photos with people.
"Just don't call me Spider-Man," he warned.
Stankis said the highlight of her day was finding a replica of the mobile computer called a tricorder used by Spock.
"This is highly exclusive," she said. "It's the find of the year."
Neil Grayston, who played junior scientist Douglas Fargo for five years on the Syfy series "Eureka," was one of several performers who signed autographs and chatted with visitors.
He said he was interested to see a Comic Con convention in its first year.
A regular at San Diego Comic-Con, Grayston said the larger convention is mostly about studios and companies showing the latest in pop culture, whereas the smaller conventions are about fans connecting with fans.
"One thing that really stands out here is a first for a lot of people, and there are more families out here," he said.
Kevin Mendez, 18, and Edward Sandoval, 19, said the best part of Comic-Con was taking photographs with other costumed characters.
Sandoval dressed as Castiel from the TV series "Supernatural," and Mendez showed up as Finn from the cartoon "Adventure Time."
"It's cool to get together with the nerd community," Mendez said. "Usually, you have to look for them. But this is home."
Mendez, a big fan of superhero comics, said the Ventura convention was a warm-up for his trip to San Diego Comic-Con in 2014.
Ventura resident Brayton Carpenter, 42, attended with his wife, Amy Carpenter, 37.
Brayton dressed as Tim the Enchanter from "Monty Python and the Holy Grail"; Amy, the evil sorceress from "Sleeping Beauty."
"At its heart, dress-up is about fun," said Brayton, his head sporting spiraling ram's horns. "As a kid I grew up playing with 'Star Wars' figures, and now I can be the action figure."
Brian Michael came to the convention with his fiancée, Michelle Boyd, and his niece Taylor Williams.
A comic book collector who has never been to Comic-Con, Michael said attending the Ventura convention made sense.
Boyd said she wanted to see costume-clad fans.
"Especially powerful women like Harley Quinn, Poison Ivy and Cat Woman," she said.
Taylor, 10, said she wanted to dress up next year.
"Seeing all the characters made me happy," she said.
Michael said meeting actor and Thousand Oaks resident Sid Haig made his day.
Haig, who portrayed the creepy Captain Spaulding in the Rob Zombie horror films "House of 1000 Corpses" and "The Devil's Rejects," signed autographs and mingled with fans.
"He's just like in the movies," he said with a laugh. "That was the highlight of my day."
Haig said visitors were timid compared with the revelers at the San Diego convention.
"My goal is to get the fans excited so they want to return next year because they show a lot of respect and I want to give them respect back," he said.

"A sound education, like character, is made up of many important Elements. If you are negligent in laying its foundation, you cannot hope to escape the consequences of such shortsightedness." (unknown)
The Beauty in Teaching
When an individual makes the decision to become a teacher, then immediately their love ones start objecting to their decision making comments such as: it's a "real low-paying headache", " But you're so good at other things why teach?" or "hey you're really going to regret this later on". Well, like many others this was the reply I got from my family. After reading, analyzing and studying about reflective teaching, it all comes down to one thing - teaching is not for everyone. I believe you have to have a real desire for teaching in the first place or else you are making a huge mistake; that is why even without the support of my love ones I still decided on becoming an educator, because I have a true desire in making a difference in someone's life and since I love children then teaching fits perfectly.

Excerpt from The Birth Book By William and Martha Sears
The better you prepare your perineal tissues for the stretching of birth, the less they will tear, and the better they will heal. Like training muscles to perform at their best in an athletic event, conditioning the tissues around the vaginal opening with massage prepares the perineum to perform. Midwives report that women who practice perineal massage daily in the last six weeks of pregnancy experience less stinging sensation during crowning. Mothers with a more conditioned perineum are less likely to tear or get an episiotomy. An added value of perineal massage is that it familiarizes a woman with stretching sensations in this area so she will more easily relax these stretching muscles when stinging occurs just before the moment of birth.
Try this technique:
- Scrub your hands and trim your thumb nails. Sit in a warm comfortable area, spreading your legs apart in a semi-sitting birthing position. To become familiar with your perineal area use a mirror for the first few massages (a floor-to-ceiling mirror works best). Use massage oil, such as pure vegetable oil, or a water-soluble lubricant, such as K-Y Jelly (not a petroleum-based oil) on your fingers and thumbs and around your perineum.
- Insert your thumbs as deeply as you can inside your vagina and spread your legs. Press the perineal area down toward the rectum and toward the sides. Gently continue to stretch this opening until you feel a slight burn or tingling.
- Hold this stretch until the tingling subsides and gently massage the lower part of the vaginal canal back and forth.
- While massaging, hook your thumbs onto the sides of the vaginal canal and gently pull these tissues forward, as your baby's head will do during delivery.
- Finally, massage the tissues between the thumb and forefinger back and forth for about a minute.
- Being too vigorous could cause bruising or swelling in these sensitive tissues. During the massage avoid pressure on the urethra as this could induce irritation or infection.
- As you become adept with this procedure, add Kegel exercises to your routine to help you get the feel for your pelvic muscles. Do this ritual daily beginning around week 34 of pregnancy.
- Many midwives and obstetricians believe that perineal massage is neither useful nor necessary as long as the mother's perineum is supported during crowning, her pushing is properly timed, and the baby's head and shoulders are eased out. Discuss the value of perineal massage with your birth attendant.

Accused charged for robbing gold chain
A trial date of July 28 was set in the Corporate Area Resident Magistrate's Court following an incident in which a man was robbed of his gold chain.
Charged with robbery with aggravation is Rohan Murray. He was fingerprinted.
The court heard that the complainant was at a bar along Princess Street in Kingston when he was allegedly attacked by the accused along with three other men, one of who grabbed his gold chain valued at $40,000.
This led to them wrestling. In an act of self-defence, the complainant pulled his licenced firearm and fired a shot into the air causing the robbers to flee. However, the accused fell while trying to escape.
He was later accosted by the complainant and handed over to the police.
A piece of the gold chain was recovered. Murray is to return to court later this month.

"Research on women's health continues to focus predominantly on their reproductive capacity and function, whereas research with men continues to investigate conditions that are not specific to one sex," write Drs. Rogers and Ballantyne. The result, say the authors, is that women are underrepresented in research focusing on significant health issues that are unrelated to biological aspects of reproduction.
Despite the growing literature on the clinical importance of gender, the Australian team noted that the majority of the 400 studies reviewed did not analyze the potential role of participant's gender in their published research. Drs. Rogers and Ballantyne recommend that clinical trials registries collect data on the gender of participants "to facilitate further research in this area and that researchers, journal editors, and peer reviewers work to standardize mechanisms for sex-specific reporting and analysis in publications."
In a companion editorial, cardiologists Sharonne N. Hayes, M.D., director of the Mayo Clinic Women's Heart Clinic, and Rita Redberg, M.D., from the University of California, San Francisco, explore the historical context surrounding the limited role of women participating in medical research and provide additional data that echo the findings of the Australian team.
"We observed the same phenomenon in a recent review of cardiology
clinical trials where only 25 percent of all studies reported results by
sex. As heart disease is the leading cause of death in women, it is
dismaying that data from cardiovascular clinical trials are so limited,"

The Banff Centre for the Arts and the Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute are pleased to announce a fully funded fellowship for students in, and alumni of, the Literary Reportage concentration.
The fellowship offers an opportunity to develop a major essay, memoir, or feature piece during a month-long residency. Writers will work on their manuscript during weekly consultations with faculty editors, and round-table discussions with the other participants. By placing writers in a situation designed to challenge and stimulate their creativity, the program encourages the exploration of new ideas in journalism and experimentation with writing a piece that might otherwise be difficult to complete. The fellowship covers round trip airfare to Banff, and food and lodging during the month at the Banff Centre for the Arts.
After acceptance to the program, writers are commissioned to produce and submit a first draft of the accepted project by June 26, 2015 (recommended length: 8,000 to 10,000 words). The time between acceptance to the program and the draft deadline should be used for research and manuscript development in consultation with one of two faculty editors. For this first draft, writers are paid — on arrival in Banff — an advance on a commission fee; the deadline must be met, however, for failure to do so can mean disqualification from the program. With the successful completion and submission of the manuscript by the end of the residency, writers are paid the balance of the $2,000 commission fee. The program requires completion of the manuscript by the end of the residency.
The writers retain first serial rights to their work, which means they can publish it wherever they like for whatever fee. A large number of articles that have come out of the program have appeared in national and international magazines, newspapers, and journals, as well as becoming sections of books and the basis for radio and television features. With the commission fee, The Banff Centre acquires second serial rights to the essays written during the program.
Faculty for 2015
Electronic Submissions
Attachments should be sent in a recognized word processing format. Microsoft Word is preferred. Rich Text Format is another option, if you do not have Microsoft Word. Please indicate clearly which program the support materials are for. Pages should be numbered with your name clearly indicated on each page. Audio files, images, recordings, or other multi-media support materials cannot be sent by email.
Adjudication and Notification
Congratulations to Cody Upton for receiving the NYU/Banff Fellowship in 2012.
My time at the Banff Centre was incredible, and I feel remarkably lucky to have participated in the Literary Journalism Program. This fellowship provided me with the necessary structure, freedom, and support to create a piece that I might not have completed otherwise—in my case, a piece of challenging, personal writing. Besides room and board, the Centre gives each writer a private cabin in the forested Leighton Artists' Colony, and plenty of time to write... I did not want to leave."
Cody Upton, recipient of the NYU/Banff Fellowship, Lit Rep '13
At Banff, I was free from the daily distractions, quotidian obligations and chores that make devoting long hours to deep thinking and writing difficult. I was encouraged to kick it to incredible, and in the presence good, smart, funny, engaged, compassionate people who care and really read, how could I not? My writing changed and my heart opened in ways I did not think possible."
Amanda Waldroupe, Lit Rep '15
My experiences at the Banff Centre, were, in a word, transformative. Not only did my time at the centre change the way I approach writing and editing, it also contributed to my personal growth in a way I hadn't anticipated. My editors were focused, encouraging and unafraid to push me into new territory. I feel I will never again be treated so well as a writer, nor will I have such a formative experience as an artist."
Kelsey Kudak, Lit Rep '14

WS12: A District Model for Combining RTI and Cognitive Assessment
Tuesday, February 21
This workshop is designed to demonstrate how school psychologists can work within an RTI model to improve the quality of interventions, instructional planning, and the process for determining SLD. Examples will illustrate how objective, standardized data can be used to target interventions at Tiers 2 and 3 in the areas of reading and math. The WJ III is used to pinpoint instructional needs and serves as the cognitive assessment to identify SLD. Using lecture and interactive media, participants will also learn how to combine RTI data with cognitive assessment to improve outcomes for students in elementary through high school.

DePaul Drops First Game of Doubleheader
April 27, 2013
CHICAGO- DePaul was going for its fourth win in a row Saturday against BIG EAST rival Notre Dame at Cacciatore Stadium.
The Blue Demons lost the opener of the doubleheader 6-3 despite an RBI single by Mary Connolly and leaving the bases loaded in the bottom of the seventh.
DePaul (27-17, 13-4) got off to a quick start in the first inning. Pitcher Hannah Penna (8-7) retired Notre Dame's first three batters. Then, with one out in the bottom in the first, Samantha Dodd ripped her first home run of the season for an early 1-0 lead.
Laura Winter of Notre Dame led off the second inning with a solo home run over the left-field fence to even the score at 1-1.
Notre Dame (36-10, 16-1) took a 3-1 lead in the top of the third inning on Emilee Koerner's two-run shot to left.
In the bottom of the third, Kirsten Verdun hit an RBI single scoring Samantha Dodd to bring the Blue Demons within 3-2.
Paige Peterson prevented another Notre Dame run in the fifth inning with a fantastic over-the-shoulder catch in right field, running into the fence.
DePaul had Megan Coronado on third with one out in the sixth, but couldn't bring her home.
Notre Dame scored three more runs in the top of the seventh off a sacrifice fly and a two-run single.
Mary Connolly responded with an RBI single in the bottom of the seventh, and DePaul loaded the bases with no outs and failed to capitalize.

Renault Grand Scenic Dynamique TomTom 1.5 dCi
£21,625 (£24,420 as tested)
Brilliant interior design, standard tech and safety kit, good value and cheap to run
Exterior design on the dull side, engine power stretched when fully loaded, ride's a bit rough
When it first appeared in 1996, the original Scenic broke ground as the first "small" people carrier to hit our roads. It did without the seven seats of existing people carriers such as its big brother Espace, but brought all that was loved about that format of car such as flexible, removable seats, great versatility and loads of storage options to a smaller package. Generation two continued to set the class standard with a distinctive look borrowed from the second generation Megane but even smarter versatility. It also introduced a longer-wheelbase, seven-seat "Grand variant to tackle competition from the likes of Vauxhall's Zafira.
Now, well into its third generation, the Scenic has been given a cosmetic makeover and gained some new technology to keep it class competitive. It may win the prize for the longest name of any car we've reviewed recently, but how does this (deep breath): Renault Grand Scenic Dynamique TomTom 1.5 dCi 110 Stop & Start measure up?
The third-generation Scenic's never had the individual style that characterised the car it replaced. We think that's a shame. Still, in Damask Red and on optional 17-inch Bari alloy wheels, the Scenic's hardly a bad looking thing - the longer wheelbase and longer third-light window of this seven-seat "Grand" model helping the looks in our view.
But cars in this class - and the Scenic in particular - have always been about the interior. In this regard, the Scenic still presents a case for itself as class-leader. You get the impression that the design team who worked on the Scenic all have kids.
That's why you'll find storage pockets and boxes all over the cabin - including in the floor, below the boot, under the seats. Airline picnic-tables are standard for those in the second row, there's a vast, slide-able storage bin between the front seats, and a second fold-out mirror from the roof to keep an eye on kids in the back. Oh, and you get integrated sun blinds and isofix points in all three second row seats. The only real quibble is that the centre row of seats doesn't fold fully flat into the floor like some cars in this class.
The "everything and more" story continues on the tech front. This is one of Renault's TomTom models, which means you get a TomTom Live Nav unit integrated into the display ahead of driver and passenger. It's controlled either by a joystick unit mounted on the front of the centre bin, where it falls neatly to hand, or via a remote control. And it works... just like every other TomTom - which means a lot better than many manufacturer-fit Nav systems. A 3-year TomTom Live subscription costs £125.
This is just the start of the dizzying amount of technology kit that's standard. Presumably you'll be keen on keeping your family safe? So how do eight airbags with deactivation on the front seat, stability control, hill start assist, cruise control, automatic headlights and wipers and - with our car's Luxe pack (£1500) - lane departure warning sound?
Worried you'll have your hands full of kids and shopping and might get distracted every now and then? The hands-free door entry/start system, parking sensors, automatic parking brake, speed limiter and tyre inflation/puncture detection kit should help you out.
And if it's entertainment you need, there's an aux and USB connector on the radio, Bluetooth for your phone which plays music too, reading spotlights for those in the rear and, again as part of the Luxe pack, a Bose sound system with nine speakers. However, nowhere on the options list could we find an option for integrated TV/DVD players for the second row seats though, which means you're into the land of Halford's accessory range, which is a shame.
Of course, like the previous generation Scenic, the gauges are all digital. This new car features a multi-colour "EcoDrive" display which allows you to vary how it shows revs, what gear you're in and the usual array of tricks to try to get you to drive economically. Just remember that, sitting where it is, everyone travelling in the car will be able to see when you choose to have that "red-mist dad" moment on the A49.
It always confuses us when magazines test people carriers and start placing importance on how happily the thing behaves when you drive like Sebastian Vettel. In our experience, most people who buy this kind of car place such things far down their list of priorities.
All you really need to know is that the Scenic drives generally fine. In this 1.5 dCi guise, the engine is fairly stretched. It's humping around a big lump of car and if you add six passengers it starts to labour quite a lot. So if you've a brood of growing teenagers, we recommend upgrading to the 130 bhp engine, which is £1100 more. Though those watching the pennies will want to stick with the incredibly competitive 105g/km CO2 and super-cheap roadtax of this 1.5 dCi.
Besides needing a bit more power, we wish the ride was more settled - admittedly it's better with more people and stuff aboard. At times the Scenic shows up its use of a cheaper, less sophisticated torsion beam rear suspension and crashes around on rough roads.
Yet other than that the stop-start worked well, the Scenic is quiet at speed and the finger-light power steering is perfectly judged for the typical use this car will get.
It's unlikely to answer your heart's desire in every way, like the Tesla we tested last week, but in the real world where you've space for just one car and have to juggle the stresses of bringing up a family with a busy work live, the Scenic hits the mark.
It doesn't drive with the sophistication of a Ford S-Max, nor offer the lounge-like interior quality of the new Vauxhall Zafira Tourer, but it's interior feels like greater thought's gone into it. It not only works well, but somehow, sat inside the Scenic, the world seems a nice, happier place.
While the facelift can't disguise the fact the Scenic is older than some of the competition and while it's price isn't far away from the Ford, Vauxhall or VW competition, Renault offer you much of the kit for standard that costs thousands extra on those cars. For instance, you'd probably not tick the £200 option box for sun-blinds on the Ford S-Max, but here they're standard and a total boon.
Add in the value and reassurance of Renault's new 4+ (4 years warranty, servicing and finance cover) and we think that, as family cars go, there's still little that can touch the Scenic.

Please, Let Me Unsubscribe
Dec 9, 2011 Community
Recently, I attended a free virtual event about publishing. In order to sign up, I had to give away my email address, so I knew I'd be added to an event email list. That's the name of the game. And really, I did want emails from them, at least leading up to the event. I like to be kept in the loop.
The event wasn't my thing in the end. It was a well-organized event; it just wasn't for me.
I continued to get emails after the event ended, mostly about future events and partner events. That's okay. I expected that from the organizers, and if I had liked their event, I probably would have been happy to continue receiving emails. But, since I have no intention of ever participating again, I decided to unsubscribe. And that's where I ran into problems.
See, when they collected my email address, they didn't just add me to a main list. They added me to all of their lists, and in order to stop receiving emails, I have to unsubscribe to all of them. Separately.
What the fuck.
I've been trying to unsubscribe from these damn lists for over three weeks now. Every time I think I'm good, I get another stupid email about their stupid events. I've unsubscribe to at least ten lists at this point. You think I'm kidding, but I'm not.
It's shady at best to add me to so many lists without a clear way to unsubscribe to all of them at once. The way they did it was very smart, because they have it set up so that you only get one email every few days, even though you're on all the lists. As soon as you unsubscribe from one, another that's been dormant kicks in.
News flash: I DON'T WANT TO GO TO FUTURE EVENTS.
This company is like a crazy ex who is stalking me. I'm not going to take you back. You're lucky that I don't have a restraining order. Yet.
I'm not going to have a sudden change of mind. In fact, all this is doing is pissing me off more and more. Even though the event itself wasn't for me, I was happy to recommend to it people who I thought could benefit from it. At first. Now? I wouldn't recommend it to anyone because I find the constant sales emails so annoying. I'm pretty sure that their goal isn't to annoy people to the point where they speak badly about their events.
The moral of the story here is that unsubscribes suck, but you have to make it easy for people. Anyone who wants to unsubscribe isn't a valuable list member anyway, since they aren't likely to click your links, read your blog, buy your products, or promote your services. They're just a useless number, not part of your community. So let them go!

Three Things: Giants vs Colts
John Fennelly, Lead Writer
Some things I will be watching in tonight's game vs the Colts:
Run defense….Last week in Pittsburgh it looked like the same old Giants vs the run. The Steelers racked up 81 yards on 17 carries in the first half (an average of 4.8 YPC) and drove the ball quite easily in between the 20's on the Giants. Tonight, the Colts will try to establish the run to limit exposing QB Andrew Luck to the Giants' pass rush. They are not known for their ability to rush the football, but RB Vick Ballard did average 6.0 YPC last week vs the Bills. The Giants need to maintain gap control and do some stuffing like we were promised when the Giants began collecting DTs earlier this year.
Run offense….RB Andre Brown is a positive-yardage back. He averaged 5.8 YPC on four attempts last week, but he's splitting time with David Wilson, who is a home-run hitter, but has issues finding holes most plays. He has to show he can overcome that and hit the line quicker. Da'Rel Scott needed to show some progress or risk losing his spot to rookie Michael Cox, if he hasn't done so already. He won't play tonight, providing Cox with a golden opportunity.
Tight ends…..Larry Donnell (sprained knee) is not going to play, so Adrien Robinson may get a longer look than expected. He is going to have to make some noise tonight so we don't forget he's here. Last week, he was targeted only once – a four yard reception. Brandon Myers and Eli Manning are starting to click, and tonight we may see a preview of what their relationship could blossom into. Myers is money in the bank when it comes to catching the football and Eli is beginning to trust that talent. It will be interesting to see where this goes and how far…

Not all kids are worth knowing
I'm sure it's difficult when you somehow end up with a baby by a broad you had no intentions on doing anything with, other than dropping your load in her and being done with it.
Like, maybe you were going especially hard, and the rubber broke. And then she didn't want to get an abortion, because she knew you had some money, and she wasn't the kind of broad that could pull a man of your caliber without pulling some ol' bullshit like that. (Let's face it, if you're a black man these days, it's a buyer's market.)
Or maybe she was planning on playing you all along. So she told you she was on the pill, knowing good and well that she wasn't. Or she poked a tiny hole in the rubber while you weren't looking, like the one kid did with that deaf broad (I'll maintain to this day that she was smokin') on Weeds.
Now you're stuck paying for some baby you hardly have anything to do with – other than that you once had sex with its mother – for the next 18 years, if not longer. I'm not saying a man in that situation should try to duck his responsibility. I'm just saying. I can sympathize with that man's plight. I'm human like that.
Hence I wasn't all that upset when I read a couple of weeks ago that Juvenile didn't bother to show up to the funeral of that daughter of his who got mercked by her batshit teenage brother. I saw a few people on the Internets pretended to be upset, but you know how it is on the Internets. People will feign outrage about anything.
On the one hand, I'm sure it would be weird to have one of your kids die and not show up to the funeral. I probably would've shown up myself just to keep up appearances. Lord knows the last thing I need is for people to get the wrong idea about me. But on the other hand, I'm sure it's hard to say exactly how you'd feel if you were in that situation.
Most likely, Juvenile didn't have very much in the way of interaction with the poor bastard, other than when he sat down each month and wrote its mother a check for some ridonkulous sum. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if, when he heard the news, his first thought was, "Wow, as bad as it is, it's gonna save me a shiteload of money."
I know, that's awful. It's probably true though.
There may have also been some ambivalence towards the baby's mother, which would of course only be projected onto the child, in that Juvenile knew the baby's mother wasn't shit, and that her older son was crazy, but there wasn't a whole lot he could do, since the family court system in this country is so biased in favor of women.
SIMILARLY, Eddie Murphy isn't even gonna bother meeting the baby he recently had by Scary Spice. He's pissed because she pulled the old trick of telling him he could hit it raw, since she was on the pill. Next thing you know, she was knocked up with his baby.
Supposedly, Eddie shelled out for her prenatal care and what have you (she must have smoked up that Spice Girls money), but now they're in court trying to hash out a child support agreement. Eddie's trying to get the payment as low as possible, since he didn't want the baby in the first place, but I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up getting stuck big time.
Actually, I'm surprised that girls can even pull that lying about being on the pill shit. There should be a law that says that, if a broad pulls some shit like that, she shouldn't get any child support on GP. The only thing would be that I'm not sure how you'd go about proving she actually said she was on the pill, unless you got the whole thing on tape.
It should be obvious though, if you've got a shiteload of money, and the woman in question is someone you obviously couldn't have any intentions on being with. I'd sat that even if you can't prove that the man was definitely tricked, there should be some sort of consideration with regard to the caliber of the child's mother when it comes to child support payments.
Some broads just plain don't deserve that kind of money.
I guess what it comes down to is that, if you're a guy, and you've got a shiteload of money, you've got to be extra careful about where you drop your load. You could end up with a child you could care less about by a woman you can't stand, and then people will think you're the one that's the asshole when you don't want to have anything to do with it.
What do you fruits think? Is it weird that guys like Juvenile and Eddie Murphy don't want anything to do with their kids? Also, can any of you think of ways to turn this shit around on me, as if I'm the one who's the asshole, let alone the fact that I don't even have any kids? I'm sure you can. That's all you people ever do.

PNoy: PH makes history with solar project-A A +A
By Carla N. Canet and Teresa Ellera
Friday, May 16, 2014
PRESIDENT Benigno S. Aquino III said Thursday the Philippines is making history by inaugurating its first large-scale solar power plant developed by San Carlos Solar Energy Inc. (SaCaSol) in San Carlos City, Negros Occidental.
"Today, we are not just inaugurating a power plant; we are also making history. Because of this new project, the Visayas grid will eventually benefit from an additional 22 megawatts," the President said in his speech.
Aquino led the switch-on of the project's Phase 1 with a capacity of 13 megawatts. Phase 2 of the P1.9-billion power project with nine megawatts is targeted to be completed next month.
The solar farm, which is situated on a 35-hectare area at the San Carlos Economic Zone, supplies power to the Visayas grid.
"All this, while SaCaSol displaces carbon emissions equivalent to the emissions produced by 14,805 tons of oil for each year of operations," the President said.
He added that the project "serves as a shining example of the collective steps we are taking to minimize climate risk – the fruit of our efforts to ensure that future generations will not be subject to the same vulnerabilities as we are now."
Aquino underscored the importance of renewable energy projects to the nation's economy and prosperity of its people.
He added that through jobs creation and a larger and more stable power supply, the Filipinos quality of life increases greatly.
The President also lauded the developers of the solar power plant for bringing much needed foreign investments into the country with the almost P2 billion project cost funded on full equity financing.
In a press briefing, Petilla said the government is eyeing to increase from 50 MW to 500 MW the cap for renewable energy projects to lure in more investors.
Aquino said the success of SaCaSol "dovetails perfectly with our administration's goal of having a more diverse energy mix, which is able to meet our country's needs thus, redounding to a more consistent energy supply."
He said that for the year 2013, the average available capacity of the Visayas grid stood at 1,678 MW while average peak demand was at 1,390 MW.
"There are adequate reserves but, of course, given the current economic momentum of the country, we cannot be content with present conditions; we also have to plan for the future," the President said.
In Sagay City, the President, who led the inauguration of the P313-million Himoga-an Bridge and Access Road, said the bridge is much safer now because the Department of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) built it using high-quality construction materials.
He added that the opening of the bridge will help the local economy as it cuts the travel time in transporting sugarcane from the farms to the mills and refineries.
It will also boost tourism because it will enable tourists to reach their destinations faster, he said.
The President expressed his gratitude to DPWH Secretary Rogelio Singson for completing the project as well as provincial officials who helped build the Himoga-an Bridge.
Governor Alfredo Marañon Jr., whose hometown is Sagay, told the President, "When you visited us two years ago, we asked for this Himoga-an Bridge and in my 51 years in public service, this is the quickest from the project request to project completion. We should also thank Secretary Rogelio Singson because we asked only for this bridge, but he gave us the approach also."
During the inauguration rites, Aquino was joined by Energy Secretary Carlos Jericho Petilla and Interior and Local Government Secretary Manuel Roxas II, SaCaSol chairman Jose Maria T. Zabaleta and president Jose Maria P. Zabaleta Jr., Senator Loren Legarda, German Ambassador Thomas Ossowski, among others.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) -- Banks will get extensions from the Dodd-Frank Act's Volcker Rule on their ownerships interests in and sponsorship of collateralized debt obligations. This will take the effective date to July 21, 2017, from July 21, 2015 for other Volcker Rule components, on CLOs in place as of Dec. 31, 2013. Concern over the CLO holdings of banks had led to Congressional pressure from both Republicans and Democrats on regulators as soon as the Volcker Rule was drafted.

Extends date of certain provisions relating to participation in the banking development districts program to January 1, 2017.

TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend chapter 526 of the laws of 1998, amending the banking law relating to participation in the banking development districts program, in relation to extending the effectiveness of certain provisions thereof
PURPOSE: To extend, for an additional five years, the provisions of Chapter 526 of 1998 which authorize savings institutions to participate in the Banking Development District program.
SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: The bill amends the effective date of Chapter 526 of 1998 to extend the provisions of this law for another 5 years (to January 1, 2017).
JUSTIFICATION: The Banking Development District Program was created in 1997. This program enables municipalities to offer certain incentives in order to encourage the establishment of bank branches in underserved areas. Under the program, a municipality and a banking institution may jointly apply to designate a "Banking Development District." By establishing a branch in such a district, the bank would be eligible -- at local and state option -- to receive municipal and state deposits at reduced rates, and to receive a partial exemption on municipal property taxes.
In 1998, the program was amended to authorize participation by thrift institutions, and to waive the branch application fee for branches established in a banking development district. However, these 1998 amendments were made subject to a January 1, 2005 sunset date. These provisions were subsequently extended to January 1, 2012 by Chapter 300 of 2004.
About 40 Bank Development Districts have been established, with several of these being created by savings banks. This bill is necessary to allow thrift institutions to continue to participate in the program. The creation of local bank offices should help provide needed banking services and easier access to capital, thereby fostering economic activity and development in these areas.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS: The Banking Development District program is a local option program. If a local government chooses to enter into an agreement with a participating banking institution in which it would earn interest at a rate lower than the institution's posted two-year CD rate, then the local government would forgo some interest income on those municipal funds. However, because the banking development district program is intended to spur the establishment of a bank facility which would not otherwise exist, any branches established by thrift institutions should result in a net increase in property tax revenue. Such increase would grow each year as the partial property tax exemption declines. If the State chooses to enter into an agreement with a participating bank in which it would earn interest at a rate lower than the
institution's posted two year CD rate, then the State would forgo some interest income on those deposits. The State would also forgo a minimal amount of revenue by waiving the application fee for establishing a branch.
EFFECTIVE DATE: Immediately.

President Obama and McKayla Maroney are 'not impressed'

He's imitating gymnast McKayla Maroney's "not impressed" look.
The president met with members of the 2012 U.S. Olympic gymnastics team on Thursday, and the White House released the photo Saturday.
Maroney won an individual silver medal and during the ceremony, she was caught with the now infamous "not impressed face"... which went viral.
After meeting with the president, she tweeted "Did I just do the not impressed face with the president?"
