This means that January, February, and March are especially good months to get discounts on Broadway tickets.

State Police are currently trying to locate George E. Hendricks, 27, who is allegedly a fugitive from justice from Manatee County, Florida.
On June 23, troopers in Dannemora developed information that a possible wanted individual was residing in the Lyon Mountain area. Troopers confirmed the information with the Manatee County Sheriffs Department in Florida, according to a news release.
Troopers said they spotted Mr. Hendricks as a passenger in a car and attempted to initiate a vehicle and traffic stop. As the car pulled over, Mr. Hendricks allegedly jumped out and fled into the woods off of Standish Road, troopers said.
A perimeter was established and State Police Aviation, Special Operations Response Team (SORT), and K-9 units responded. The search for Mr. Hendricks is still underway.
Mr. Hendricks is 5'09", 160 pounds, has brown hair and brown eyes.
Anyone with information as to the whereabouts of this individual, should contact state police at (518) 561-3761.

I have released WMPCDText, a Windows Media Player plug-in that finally adds support for CD-Text to WMP.
There is an option to automatically read CD-Text from unknown CD's. Alternatively, you can also right-click on a CD-track in the Now Playing-pane while the CD is playing, and click "Read CD-Text". There are some other options too, those can be changed in the plug-in's settings dialog.

September 1, 2007: I have updated WMPCDText with a fix for crashes that might occur in wmpvis.dll when a visualization is enabled in WMP. Please re-download and reinstall WMPCDText if WMP crashes when you advance to the next track, and these crashes started happening after installing WMPCDText.
December 22, 2007: I have released the final version: http://bmproductions.fixnum.org/wmpcdtext
July 9, 2008: WMPCDText 1.1 has been released. This new version fixes the "Error while executing SCSI command: SRB completed with error (4)" message.
July 28, 2009: WMPCDText 1.2 adds full compatibility with Windows Media Player 12 on Windows 7.
July 20, 2012: WMPCDText 1.3 fixes the Read CD-Text menu item not appearing in certain cases, and a possible crash when opening WMP 12.
August 15, 2012: WMPCDText 1.4 fixes an issue that was introduced in version 1.3 and that could lead to a Windows Media Player crash.

Well, a classic case of "If it ain't broke, don't fix it" (American colloquialism). I had v1.2 installed and working fine in WMP 11 on a Windows XP SP3 system. Was bored and decided to upgrade to v1.3.
Uninstalled v1.2 (via Control Panel) and used downloaded v1.3 installer to try and install. It completed the install process successfully but when I clicked Finish with the Open WMP now option checked I got a firewall intrusion alert from Bitdefender Internet Security 2012. Alert said a Potential Malicious Process detected in my Local Settings/Temp folder had been blocked. This file had a .tmp extension. I chose Allow for this process.
Upon opening WMP 11 and looking under Tools/Plugins/Options/Background there was no entry at all whereas WMPCDText 1.2 showed before. I checked in CP/Add-Remove programs and it showed v1.3 as being installed. I also checked in the Programs folder and WMPCDText showed there.
I uninstalled v1.3 and attempted the install process again. Same result. Uninstalled v1.3 again, then disabled the BD IS 2012 firewall, enabled Windows Firewall and tried the install again. Same result.
This appears to be being caused by a tmp file that is created during the v1.3 installation process that BD firewall is treating as a Potential Malicious Process but I can't figure out why this would happen after I disabled the BD firewall.
Any suggestions on a way to get v1.3 installed and working in WMP 11?

Plus, it offers AWD and nice technological features like key-free-entry and a USB port for audio. Clearly, the Outlander Sport is not meant to be another gas guzzling SUV like a Tahoe or Cherokee...so don't look at it with confused expectations. It is simply an excellent "tall" alternative to an economy car. Nuff said.

Racing supporter will match donations of up to $200k for asphalt race trackUPDATED 11:16 PM HST Jan 17, 2014
Drag racing could return to Oahu with a donor's offer to match donations of up to $200k in an effort to rebuild a track.Video Transcript
engines! Good evening, I'm Yunji de Nies. Kenny Choi has the night off. Drag racing COULD return to Oahu. KITV4's Brenton Awa is live with our top story. Brenton? Yunji -- It's been more than 7- years since racers have been able to roll out their cars on a quarter mile track on Oahu... And while a new track is still far from being built -- a meeting at our state capitol offered a glimmer of hope. After decades of racing in Kapolei -- the brakes were put on at Hawaii Raceway park permanently back in 2006. That left Oahu drag racers in the dust -- with no where to go. But a surprise today at the state capitol -- where one man stepped up and offered to match donations of up to 200-thousand dollars in an effort to rebuild a track. The pavement would go here at the new Kalaeloa Raceway Park but it's owner knows there's a lot that has to be done before getting the green light. 1141 - RACE "HE'S SINCERE AND HE'S READY BUT I GOT TO RESOLVE ME PROBLEM WITH HAWAIIAN HOMES BECAUSE WHATS THE SENSE OF PUTTING ASPHAULT DOWN IF I CANNOT COME TO SOME KIND OF AGREEMENT." The raceway is on a month to month permit to use this land -- owned by the Department of Hawaii Homelands -- who says the tracks owner is behind more than 20- thousand-dollars in rent -- 5- thousand in utilities -- and facing fines from the city for 121- thousand-dollars. 313 - 325 - DHHL "IT WAS RENT DELINQUENCY, UTILITY DELINQUENCY, CURING THE VIOLATIONS THAT THEY HAVE WITH THE CITY AND OBTAINING MASS GRADE AND STOCK PILING PERMITS FOR THE ACTIVITIES THAT THEY DO." To build a track -- the DHHL says the Raceway would have become "compliant" with it's permit... But the parks owner says the DHHL has changed it's policies since he first started renting -- and broke its promises. 915 - RACE "THE NEW POLICIES SHOULDNT APPLY TO ME BECAUSE I WAS FROM THE ADMINISTRATI ON PRIOR. I HAD PROMISES MADE, I HAD DOCUMENTS TO PROVE THAT I COULD DO CERTAIN THINGS." Those things include construction without certain city permits that George Grace says DHHL told him they would waive -- but he says they've since changed their tune. 1105 - RACE "WE'VE LOST CREDIBILITY FROM THIS AGENCY SLANDERING ME IN THE NEWS, SLANDERING ME ALL OVER TOWN. WEVE LOST SUPPORTERS BECAUSE OF THIS FIGHT, NOBODY WANTS TO FIGHT. And that's where it gets tricky -- Both sides say they want to meet and come to terms -- but that -- has yet to happen. 411 DHHL "THEY WOULD JUST NEED TO SCHEDULE A MEETING WITH US, AGAIN WE WOULD BE TALKING ABOUT CURING THE PAST VIOLATIONS FIRST BEFORE WE MOVE TO ANYTHING NEW." 1219 - RACE "WE CAN BRING EVERYTHING UP TO CURRENT, WE CAN DO ANYTHING THAT WE NEED TO DO BUT WE HAVE TO SIT DOWN AND TALK AND I CANNOT GET THEM TO DO THAT." So when the two sides will meet -- thats still up in the air... The owner of the raceway says they'll be waiting on DHHL to return their messages. DHHL says it'll be waiting on the raceway to comply before any meeting happens. So as for that new track -- the possibility is there -- but it's far from a sure bet.

Indian Journal of Fisheries, 59 (2). pp. 39-47.
Global catches of skipjack tuna have been steadily increasing since 1951, reaching a peak in 2009 at 25, 99,681 t (Fig.1). Most of the catches were reported from the fishing areas 71, 51, 61 and 34 (FA0, 2011). Globally skipjack tuna is caught at the surface, mostly with purse seines and pole and lines and to a small extent by gillnets, troll lines and longlines. Gears like purse-seine and very long gillnets enabled few nations to augment their production, whereas traditional pole and line nations suffered heavily.

Indian River Shores budget includes money for public safety vehicles, per-diem patrol officers
Budget workshop: 7 a.m. July 25, just before the regular town council meeting.
Budget hearings: 5:01 p.m. Sept. 12 for first hearing; 5:01 p.m. Sept. 25 for final budget hearing.
INDIAN RIVER SHORES — New public safety vehicles, raises for town hall employees, adding more per-diem patrol officers and painting town hall are just a few of the items included in a draft fiscal 2014 budget presented Wednesday at Indian River Shores' finance committee meeting.
The approximate $5.8 million proposed budget, which includes $5.4 million in general fund expenses, assumes the current tax rate of 1.47 per $1,000 of taxable value remains the same for the next fiscal year. It also assumes a 1.22 percent increase in taxable values of property in Indian River Shores.
By keeping the current tax rate, property owners with a $400,000 home and a $50,000 homestead could expect to pay $514.50 in taxes.
But after reviewing the budget at Wednesday's meeting, the finance committee decided unanimously to recommend to the town council it consider raising the proposed tax rate to 1.51 per $1,000 of taxable value. This number is slightly higher than the current tax rate but lower than the current year rollback rate of 1.65 percent, which is the rate the town would have to charge to get the same amount of revenue as last year without a drop in services. The change means the homeowner with a $400,000 home and a $50,000 homestead would pay $528.50.
"Nothing has been approved in this budget," cautioned CPA Heather Christmas, a member of the finance department team. "It is just a draft."
Included in the capital budget for the town is a new police patrol vehicle and four new administrative police vehicles. Town Manager Rob Stabe said the five current vehicles are in need of replacement.
"In order for us to continue the way we function, I need to replace those five vehicles," said Stabe. "We've been putting it off and off, and the amount of miles we have on our current fleet is unbelievable."
Stabe also recommended the town lease a ladder firetruck for approximately $876,000, as well as a pumper truck for $245,000. But after a long discussion, the finance committee voted unanimously to recommend the town purchase the equipment, which would cost less in the long-term but require more of a cash outlay at the time of the purchase.
Painting the inside and outside of town hall and the public safety building are necessary in the next year, Stabe said. The cost is budgeted at $16,680 for the interior and $19,520 for the exterior of both buildings.
"Literally, there's been zero budgeted in the past for property maintenance," said Stabe. "We've never budgeted any money to maintain these buildings. We want to maintain the town's assets on a regular basis."
Also included in the budget were cost-of-living adjustments and merit raises for the 11 nonunion staff members; adding a per-diem patrol shift for public safety for 40 hours a week; and a 10-hour per week assistant in the town clerk's office. The budget will now be considered by the town council on July 25.
Budget workshop: 7 a.m. July 25, just before the regular town council meeting.
Budget hearings: 5:01 p.m. Sept. 12 for first hearing; 5:01 p.m. Sept. 25 for final budget hearing.

• The school offers five varsity girls sports and Taylor Kiefer will earn letters in all five.
OTTAWA LAKE — Taylor Kiefer's mother and father were three-sport stars at Whiteford. Her mother pitched the Bobcats to the Class D state title in 1984 and went on to play for the University of Toledo.
But Taylor is about to accomplish something that even her parents didn't come close to.
The Whiteford senior will become the first athlete in school history to letter in all five girls varsity sports offered by the school.
Kiefer has competed in volleyball, cross country, basketball and track and field. This spring a foot injury forced her to give up track and switch to softball, a sport she hadn't played since eighth grade.
The daughter of Jeffery and Tina (Knaggs) Kiefer of Ottawa Lake hasn't just played in every sport, she has excelled in all of them.
Kiefer made the varsity volleyball team as a freshman and was the starting setter and team MVP as a sophomore. She ran cross country for the first time as a junior and just missed qualifying for state, then qualified this year despite missing much of the season due to injury. Now she is a starting outfielder and leadoff hitter on Whiteford's softball team.
She also carries a 3.80 GPA, will be one of Whiteford's top 10 graduates, was school homecoming queen, serves as secretary of the National Honor Society, business manager of the yearbook and as a member of Student Council, and volunteers as a tutor.
Kiefer grew up playing softball but felt the sport was too slow so she switched to track. Now she's trying to get used to the speed of a game that is much faster than it was at the junior high level.
"I pitched before, but I hated pitching. I kind of decided I should do it because my mom did," she said. "I'm still trying to get used to the speed of pitches now. My coach (Kris Hubbard) says I'm quick, so she's batting my leadoff."
But Kiefer wouldn't have even considered going back to softball were it not for a running injury that threatened to derail her entire sports career.
Her favorite sport had been volleyball, but after two years on varsity she said it wasn't fun anymore. She had run track for coach Jim Hojnacki and decided to give cross country a try. It wasn't long before it became her favorite sport.
Kiefer missed qualifying for state by four places as a junior and was determined to reach that goal this year. But while running over the summer months, she started feeling pain in the arch of her left foot. A sports doctor found that she had torn a planter fascia tendon. She no longer had an arch in her foot and had to wear support.
"My cross country coach (Hojnacki) let me not run certain meets so I could run other meets that would be more beneficial," she said. "He was great about it."
As she continued running, it kept getting worse. Then she aggravated the injury in the Tri-County Conference meet.
"I hit this hole and felt something pop in the first mile," she recalled. "It was like the worse pain I could ever remember."
Kiefer managed to finish the race but was in pain the rest of the season.
"I would be running and bawling my eyes out because it hurt so bad," she said. "I was ranked ninth at Regional, but my foot wasn't really holding up that day (she still finished 13th to qualify for state). Sometimes my foot felt like it was ready to fall off. It was like I was running on glass chips."
She opted against surgery and tried to play basketball for the Bobcats, but the practice only made her foot worse and she had to drop the sport this year.
Hojnacki could have used Kiefer on his young track team this spring, but he helped convince her that softball would be less strain on her foot.
"With our track, I told her the best thing for her is to go play softball," Hojnacki said. "Her sister (Jordan, a sophomore) is the pitcher. That she can just step right in and play after all these years away from the game shows the athletic ability that she has."
The sports switch made it easier for her parents who had to split time when Jordan and Taylor had athletic activities on the same day. The Kiefers also have two sons who are involved in sports, Dakota, 13, and Jesse, 11.
"It's bittersweet for me," Mrs. Kiefer said. "Coach Hojnacki has a very special relationship with the kids in our family. We loved the idea of her having a chance to play a year with her sister."
Jordan and Taylor had never played on a team together.
"We're best friends," Taylor said. "My parents thought it would be great to be on a team with her."
Mr. and Mrs. Kiefer were high school sweethearts at Whiteford where they were selected Mr. and Miss Whiteford and became co-valedictorians.
Taylor plans to study nursing in college next year and is thinking about attending the University of Toledo.
"I really like chemistry," she said. "I want to get my master's degree in nursing, get my license as a nurse practicioner and open my own business specializing in pediatric care. I want to work with kids with cancer and other diseases. I've always been inspired by them. I would love to conduct research."

London Pass BlogBack to Blog
Learn about some of London's bridges on breaks in the capital
Published: Tuesday 25th of January 2011
Tower Bridge is one of the best-known landmarks in London and although the structure may have an impressive appearance, there is far more to this London attraction than meets the eye.
If you are planning to visit the capital then you should certainly allow an afternoon to explore the bridge and learn all about its history.
The first port of call for many visitors are the walkways at the top of the bridge, where you will be able to see many of the other famous London attractions, including St Paul's Cathedral, the London Eye and the towering buildings of Canary Wharf.
On your way up to this high-level vantage point, you will be able to admire the structure of the towers from within and marvel at the Victorian architecture.
The bridge was constructed in the late 19th century and it has become known the world-over as an iconic London sight.
Even at the time of its completion in 1894, people were impressed by the engineering used in its construction and to operate the bridge, which can open to let tall ships pass down the River Thames.
An exhibition housed within the bridge will provide you with a good idea about its history and the lengths the Victorians went to in order to create the crossing.
But while Tower Bridge may be one of the most photographed London attractions that spans the Thames, there are other structures that have an interesting past dating back hundreds of years.
One example is London Bridge, which has undergone numerous incarnations since the first structure was constructed by the Romans in around 50 AD.
Over the years, the bridge has been destroyed and rebuilt on many occasions and at one time shops and houses even lined the river crossing.
If you want to find out all about the most fascinating aspects of this attraction's past then you should visit the London Bridge Experience.
Here you will be taken on a journey through time, with real actors playing the parts of some of London's former residents and telling you the tales of how the bridge was used in days gone by.
This is a truly interactive experience - with old versions of the bridge recreated in parts and even authentic smells to get you in the right frame of mind.
After your immersive trip through some of London's history, you can then move on to an even darker chapter in the city's past - the London Tombs.
This venue is known as one of the most frightening in the capital and the combination of the London Bridge Experience with the London Tombs has been voted the UK's best scare attraction for two years running by Hauntedattractions.com.
The London Tombs were once a plague pit and you'll experience a number of thrills and surprises from our actors as you make your way through the underground chambers.
Once you emerge from the scary attraction, you may need some time to calm your nerves before continuing with your sightseeing.
The Museum of London Bridge could provide the perfect antidote, featuring exhibitions about the history of the structure with all manner of memorabilia from the private collection of Peter Jackson, who had an avid interest in the capital's past, particularly that surrounding London Bridge.
With the River Thames playing such an important role throughout London's development, you could find that taking the time to explore some of its many bridges is more interesting and entertaining than you may have imagined.

- Students go onto www.learnmatheasily.com and select the assigned video for homework.
- Students view the instructional portion of the video (both mathematical content and real-world applications) and complete guided practice problems, prompts, and formal assessments embedded within the video.
- Students come into class the next day with a solid foundation on the mathematical topic. The teacher utilizes the aforementioned prompts to facilitate class discussion and assigns polls via Edmodo to ensure that the learning has taken place.
- SMART Board interactive review games, case studies, collaborative learning exercises, group projects, quizzes, and tests are assigned in class to reinforce the learning in a differentiated fashion and probe deeper into key mathematical topics.
Education is a reflective practice. This blog provides my views on educational leadership, effective technology integration, best practices, and creating a student-centered learning culture.

1901-12-18 (140lbs) Jim Maloney w rtd 8 (15) Jim Roberts, Atheneum Theatre, Tottenham Court Road, London, England
1901-12-18 (140lbs) Jim Maloney w rtd 8 (15) Jim Roberts, Atheneum Theatre, Tottenham Court Road, London, England. Referee: Ed Plummer. Made at 140lbs, the Sporting Life reported that Roberts (139) was a veritable iron man as he took punches throughout that would have stopped 99 men out of a 100 and although he was forced to the floor on occasion he always got up. The paper stated that some of the punches Maloney (138) rained in on Roberts' head would have felled an ox, such were their force, and once or twice the latter remained on the floor until the time limit of grace had almost expired before getting up. Following such instances, Roberts would go punch for punch with Maloney before being floored again. In the sixth, Maloney began to work the body and two rounds of this tactic eventually put paid to Roberts' account. Towards the end of the seventh Maloney sent Roberts down with a terrific blow to the body, the iron man being saved by the bell. A minute's rest was probably not enough for Roberts at this stage and after two or three blows were exchanged in the eighth he indicated his retirement. Maloney based his English 140lbs title claim on his win over Roberts, only to discover that the South African was really a man called Bob James, who was far removed from championship class. On 23 May 1902, Maloney challenged Eddie Connolly to settle the world 140lbs championship and, a few days later, Bill Nolan challenged all England.

Although all the planets in our solar system move forward, an optical illusion through the year causes the planets to appear to be travelling backwards. This is called as retrograde motion.
Each planetary retrograde affects us individually and the society as a whole. Hence knowing when the planets go retrograde is vital for our living. Equally important is how each planet retrograde affects our lives.
All planets retrograde except the luminaries the Sun and the Moon. It is to be noted that tasks done when any of the planet goes retrograde usually does not get completed. There would be hindrances for the same. The areas ruled by the planets would be majorly affected like Mercury for communication, Mars for operations and Venus for love and artistic pursuits.
The retrograde motion of Mercury is the most important retrograde motion being followed by astrology enthusiasts around the world. Around 15 days before the retro motion of Mercury the effects can be felt. You need to play low till the planet goes direct. Double check your plans and make no major decisions in life in this period. However short term or temporary changes can be done
When Venus goes retrograde, works dealing with artistic pursuits would be derailed. Relationships and financials also take a beating. New relationships that come during Venus retrograde seem to be long lasting but they need to be tried and tested after Venus goes direct and usually don't last long.
Mars goes retrograde once in every two years and two months. Hence Mars retrograde motion is a rare event when compared to the other planets. During this time conflicts, anger and hostility need to be curbed and kept under check. You need to garner your strength to prove your mettle in an area of least importance in your life. Mars retrograde provides opportunities to withdraw or re-phrase your challenges in life.
Jupiter Retrograde is not that bad as that of the other planets' retrograde motion but it does cause one to overdo in certain matters. It may delay the final outcome but it also should be
beneficial. The only way that it may be bad is if there is a disease that is going on. As Jupiter rules travels its retrograde period might bring in lots of wanted and unwanted travels making you tired as weak. The retrograde period of Jupiter is also an ideal time to concentrate and fully understand your studies if you are involved in the same. Jupiter retrograde is also connected with pregnancy and bloating of the body.
When Saturn goes retrograde there would be delays and hindrances for ongoing projects. Health concerns also arise during this time. Old relations or situations shall come calling back. Saturn retrograde period can be best used to review things that need a change. This time can be spent for restructuring your financial plans as well.
When Uranus goes retrograde, it will reawaken freedom urges causing the individual to suddenly rebel against any sort of discipline. It would be better to process what needs to change while Uranus is retrograde and the plan can be done when Uranus turns direct. Uranus Retrograde also forces us to confront our own fears and personal roadblocks, and hence there would be moments of realization. If you're in the wrong job, working toward the wrong degree or dating the wrong person, Uranus Retrograde will let you know.
A retrograde Neptune can bring about confusion, deception or wrong diagnosis in our lives. It usually weakens our body and soul. Medications need to be changed when Neptune goes retrograde as it rules over this area. Also your efforts to quit smoking or drinking or a bad habit would be also be delayed and hampered to a greater extent when Neptune is in its retrograde motion.
When Pluto goes retrograde, it forces us to focus on our own personal shadow sides, mainly the unpleasant parts of our personalities that we may not really like. With Pluto retrograde, we'll have to get honest with ourselves about how much we're motivated by a need for recognition, money and authority. Pluto retrograde is a period of personal reckoning that allows us to do a lot of cleansing in our lives. Pluto retrograde period can be best utilized to bring about a transformation in ourselves.

Since I 've been living in a mediterranean surrounding, I've got some nostalgic memories of the gardens in France.I love the iris a lot ! I first drew different samples,ironed them on "wonder under" fusible and cut them. I wanted to build a fabric basket with them, but I changed my mind when seeing them all together on my table. I decided to draw a landscape to incorporate them. I fused all scraps,added angelina fibers, tulle to shade some areas,thin and shining plastic for light effects in the water as well as the sky.Free motion stitching only. I embellished with beads and special ribbons..and added a thread butterfly, of course !
Simply Beautiful...............I just love this quilt. Can't wait to try my hand at making a version of it. I am a purple addict.......who loves to work with angelina fibers. Thanks for the posting for Fablous art quilt!
Irises are some of my favorite flowers, too. I love the way you captured how they shimmer and float on their stems, just like butterflies...:)

Best electric cars and plug-in hybrids
- We look at electric cars and plug-in hybrids...
- ... that are on sale now or in the future
- Could you switch to one?
Manufacturers are also keen to emphasise their green credentials as buyers are drawn to the lower running costs and other benefits offered by the Governments and local authorities.
We'll be looking at fully electric cars and plug-in hybrids, which usually have a petrol or diesel engine connected to an electric motor. This allows the car to be driven on electricity alone for short distances – and removes the 'range anxiety' associated with fully electric motoring.
Our list shows cars that are already on sale, those that will be coming soon and cars that might make an appearance in the UK in the future. All prices quoted take into account the £5000 Government grant.
Cars you can buy now
Chevrolet Volt and Vauxhall Ampera
The Chevrolet Volt and Vauxhall Ampera are two of our favourite alternative-fuel cars. Powered by an electric motor and a petrol engine, they offer all the benefits of an electric car without the problem of range anxiety. When the batteries run low on power the combustion engine acts as a generator to charge them. Government average economy is impressive at 235mpg and 27g/km of CO2. Prices start at £30,255 for the Chevrolet Volt and £29,995 for the Vauxhall Ampera.
Nissan Leaf
The new Nissan Leaf has a range of 124 miles and comes in a variety of trims. Other changes include faster charging options, a dark interior trim option and a mode to boost battery regeneration. The Leaf offers excellent refinement and room for five. Prices for the new Leaf start at £15,990 for the car with an additional £70 per month for the lease of the battery.
Renault Twizy
The Renault Twizy turns more heads than most supercars. A strict two-seater, the Twizy is not at all practical, but is fun to drive around town if you can cope with the harsh ride and shortage of creature comforts. Prices start at £6690.
Smart Fortwo Electric Drive
The Smart Fortwo Electric Drive looks very similar to the conventionally powered car. It has an 87-mile range and the batteries can be charged in one hour from a rapid-charge unit. The ride is hard, but at least the semi-automatic gearbox from the standard car isn't required for its electric drivetrain. Prices start at £12,275 for the Smart Fortwo Electric Drive Coupe and the batteries cost £55 per month to lease.
Toyota Prius plug-in
The Toyota Prius can be credited with bringing eco-motoring to the mainstream. The plug-in hybrid version can travel up to 15.5 miles on electricity alone and when that runs out it is powered by the standard car's petrol engine. It has average economy of 135mpg and emits 49g/km of CO2. Prices start at £33,425.
What you will be able to buy
Audi A3 E-tron
What Car?'s 2013 Car of the Year will get a plug-in hybrid powertrain that will develop a combined power output of 201bhp. Powered by a 1.4-litre petrol engine and an electric motor, the E-tron will get from 0-62mph in 7.6 seconds and offer average economy of 188mpg with CO2 emissions of 35g/km. The E-tron will also be able to drive about 30 miles on electricity alone.
BMW i3
The BMW i3 is due to go on sale before the end of 2013. A variety of powertrains will be available including fully electric and range-extender versions. Customers will be able to buy the car and battery outright for about £35,000.
Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV
The Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV goes on sale in the UK this summer. Pricing has yet to be revealed, but we expect it to cost about £35,000. Powered by a 117bhp 2.0-litre petrol engine and two electric motors, the Outlander PHEV has an electric-only range of 32 miles and permanent four-wheel drive.
Porsche Panamera S E-Hybrid
A plug-in hybrid version of the Porsche Panamera will go on sale in July, with prices starting at about £95,000. Powered by an electric motor and a new 3.0-litre V6 petrol engine, the Panamera S E-Hybrid will have average economy of 91mpg and a combined output of 410bhp. It will be able to drive 22 miles in electric mode.
Renault Zoe
Customers can order the all-electric Renault Zoe now, but the car won't arrive until June. It has a claimed range of 130 miles, room for five, a 338-litre boot and a high specification on all models. The Zoe looks great and has a starting price of £13,995, plus £70 per month to lease the batteries.
Tesla Model S
The Tesla Model S is a luxury electric car that produces 416bhp and darts from 0-60mph in 4.4 seconds. It handles and rides well and the refinement is excellent. The Model S is wider and longer than a Porsche Panamera and has room for five adults and two children. Prices and specifications for UK-bound cars will be revealed closer to the on-sale date at the beginning of next year.
Volkswagen e-Up
The Volkswagen e-Up is a fully electric version of the Up city car that will go on sale early next year. It will have a range of about 93 miles and should cost around £16,000 in the UK.
Volkswagen Golf Bluemotion Twindrive
Plug-in hybrid technology will come to the Volkswagen Golf at the beginning of 2014. Powered by the same petrol engine and electric motor as the Audi A3 E-tron, the Golf Bluemotion Twindrive will have a claimed average economy of 188mpg and emissions of 48g/km.
Volvo V60 Plug-in Hybrid
The world's first plug-in diesel hybrid, the V60 Plug-in Hybrid goes on sale in May. It has average economy of 155.8mpg and CO2 emissions of 48g/km. The V60 Plug-in Hybrid has a 31-mile range on electricity alone and all-wheel drive. Prices start at £43,775.
What you might be able to buy in the future
Audi A2
The Audi A2 is an electric concept car that could go on sale by 2016. It is shorter than an Audi A1, but has room for four adults.
Ford Focus Electric
The Ford Focus Electric is exactly that, an electric version of the Ford Focus. No on-sale date has been set for the UK, but it could arrive as early as the end of this year.
Mercedes SLS AMG Electric Drive
The Mercedes SLS AMG Electric Drive is not officially available in the UK, but Mercedes dealers will help you import one if you have £360,000 lying around. It is the most powerful production Mercedes ever – developing 740bhp.
Toyota i-Road
The Toyota i-Road is the manufacturer's take on a rival to the Renault Twizy. The three-wheel car has a range of 30 miles and is likely to enter production, although no date has been set.

Beaches and Promenade, Marbella
16 Reviews
16 Reviews
Favorite thing:
Among the Beaches you will find in Marbella are the Playa de Venus - Playa de Bajadilla - Playa Fontanilla (next to Port of Marbella) - Nagueles - El Faro - La Venus. If you just want to sit and relax on the beach, you can rent umbrellas or rent a lounge chair for the day at 4 Euros. At any given time people were sun-bathing, swimming, walking along the shore collecting shells -simply enjoying MARBELLA'S BEACHES. Also where there were restaurants, you could watch sardines smoking in little sand-filled boats, being tenderly cared for by the chef.
Another fun thing is that some of the showers on the beaches are elephant-shaped with swimmers showering under their trunks. What a grerat idea!
Favorite thing:
One of things that make Marbella such a great place to visit is of course its sea side location apart from the good weather year around. Wel almost year around, it can get too hot in august according to inside information.
But now there was simply excellent weather to enjoy and a great boulevard for making a stroll.
Favorite thing:
Most of us do like the idea to sit down at a terrace, relax and enjoy the passers-by. Well, this center of the Jet-Set and Show Business offers beautiful boulevards, promenades, parks and gardens, as well as those romantic narrow lanes in the best Moorish or Andalusian tradition that gave Marbella's unmistakable its personality.
Though that city's personality pales by its moving capacity of tourists. Take the shadow for the substance and zoom in at an individu. You'll be amazed by its motivation to be seen and to see. At the South of Spain, Marbella offers you this opportunity. To be or not to be,... wasn't that the question ... ???
Fondest memory: Well, enjoying your long drink, after a hard workin' day, and watching the passer-by's stands the best chance at Puerto Banus. Go for a window shopper's dream with several of the world renowned fashions houses, in addition some small, interesting shops and boutiques you can't miss. It was a pity we couldn't enjoy the nightlife buzzes at Puerto Banus. Puerto Banus, I do come back in future time ... for the perfect holiday conditions this time ;-)
B o u t i q u e s
Favorite thing: The Costa del Sol was still taking a battering from the gales of the previous weekend when we visited. You can see from the grey skies, and the general appearance of the beach that the weather wasn't at its best. But, from this view, you can see it's an attractive little corner of Marbella.
Favorite thing:
There something very tipical for spanish people, is the "paseo" afternoon, people get dress and walk along the promenade or main street of their cities.
We have that use here too, and all the year you will find lots of people walking along the paseo until late at night, or doing sports during the day (all year)
Favorite thing:
Between Guadalmina and Cabopino there are beautiful beaches on a length of 26 kilometers .
The many small bars, Chiringuitos, located at the seaside offer the possibility to alternate a bath with enjoying of the delicious meal. some are expensive, but not all of them.
I do not go often, but for restuarant tips go further
Fondest memory: Here is a list of the names of each:
GUADALMINA BEACH in San Pedro de Alcantara, next to the Guadalmina urbanization.
LINDA VISTA BEACH in San Pedro Alcantara, next to the Linda Vista Urbanization
NAGÜELES BEACH at theGolden Mile of Marbella, next to the Marbella Club Urbanization
LA FONTANILLA BEACH at the urban area of Marbella. The whole beach is close to the pedestrian promenade and it is next to the Port in Marbella.
EL FARO BEACH West of the Port in Marbella, more concretely between the Port entrance and the breaker, in the center of Marbella.
LA VENUS BEACH, close to the Marbella Sports Port and finalizing at the limit with the Represa River.
LA BAJADILLA BEACH close to the fishing port and neighborhood. Very good fish restaurants there for an excellent price.
EL CABLE BEACH nest to the fishing Port to the Rio Real River.
EL PINILLO BEACH next to the Los Monteros Urbanization, with golden sand forming natural dunes.
LOS MONTEROS BEACH, next to the Bahia de Marbella Urbanization
LAS CHAPAS BEACH (my favorite, see photo) is situated in a semi urban area, next to the urbanization of the same name.
Look for the RANCHON CUBANO (cuban restuarant for nice mojitos)
LAS CAÑAS BEACH next to the Marbesa Urbanization.
ARTOLA BEACH, Due to its location and characteristics, this beach is situated in a protected sand dune area, known as LAS DUNAS DE ARTOLA, next to the Cabopino Leisure Port.
Favorite thing: A stroll along the promenade will be well rewarded if you catch a magnificent sunset - but be quick it soon sets!
Favorite thing: Marbella on Spain's Costa del Sol has 28km of beaches. Set against the stunning backdrop of the "La Concha" mountain.
Favorite thing: I couldn't figure out quite why there were elephants stationed at various points on the beach but after checking several of them out, I realized they were showers. How very clever!
Favorite thing: The floodlit tower beside the harbor at Porto Banus. There are some lovely restaurants here, if you can afford to eat there, LOL!
Favorite thing: Everyone loves beaches, and this one is really no exception. The only problem was that we didn't really have much time to spend here. From what we saw, the beach is really nice.
Favorite thing: This sculpture was the symbol of Marbella some years ago. It was on the beach and now is sitted on the Marbella Boulevar or promenade, next to the Tourist office
Favorite thing:
yes... you are not dreaming....
At the ebach of marbella you will find this little oasis with an elephant which mission is ...... to be a shower....
do not try in winter lol
Favorite thing: The Beach at Puerto Banus is great. It can be crouded on Sundays, but if you arrive a little early, you are sure to find a spot.
Favorite thing: The elephants behind me in la Playa de la Fontanilla serve for shower. Quite unusual!

Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon contradicts media reports that Hezbollah has smuggled into Lebanon components of advanced Russian anti-ship cruise missile system from Syria • Ya'alon: Palestinians are not interested in a "third intifada."
Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon said on Tuesday that Hezbollah apparently does not possess Yakhont anti-ship cruise missiles, contradicting recent media reports.
During a tour of the Israel Defense Forces Central Command, Ya'alon was asked by Israel Hayom about recent reports that Hezbollah had already smuggled some components of the advanced Yakhont system into Lebanon from Syria.
"As far as we know, Hezbollah does not have any missiles of this type," Ya'alon said.
Ya'alon also discussed the ongoing peace negotiations with the Palestinians, saying Israel was attempting to reach a framework for the continuation of talks past the allotted nine-month window.
"We are not working on a framework deal, but rather a framework for the continuation of negotiations over a more prolonged period," Ya'alon said.
"There are large gaps," Ya'alon said. "They are not new, but it is definitely in the interest of all of us to continue negotiations. We must continue to work to stabilize the relationship between us and the Palestinians."
Ya'alon said Israel's situational assessment is that the Palestinian side, including its leadership, is not interested in a third intifada.
"This is different than in 2000, when the Palestinian leadership led the terror war," Ya'alon said. "Now, we don't see such an interest, but there are other elements. The Palestinian media and Palestinian rhetoric are certainly ultimately inciting individuals to launch attacks."

How to Make Roblox Videos
Two Methods:Using Online ProgramsUsing Games From Your Roblox Account
Roblox videos are almost like machinimas, but most of them use text instead of sounds, or both. Roblox videos are very popular in YouTube. To make good videos you must know how to plan, shoot, and edit them correctly.
Method 1 of 2: Using Online Programs
1Get the programs. Search on Google for good programs for making machinimas (since Roblox videos are almost related to those), or try asking on websites and forums how to (you can also search "Robloxiwood" [Roblox forum] for programs to make them).hiAd
2Cast. (Quick note: if you planning to solo skip to step 3) Try asking at the Roblox forums (ROBLOXiwood) for people to help with acting, shooting, editing, etc.
- Try casting your friends, because they will probably love it and it provides an easy cast.
3Write. Creating a script for your movie will make filming and editing easier. Also, it lets you know what is coming up in the script.
4Film. Using the recording program you got, record the footage needed according to the script you wrote.
5Edit. Using the editing program you got, place any clip where you want it to go and cut the unneeded frames (some people make mistakes because they upload only one of the clips OR they did not cut the clips). Windows Movie Maker, Windows Live Movie Maker, Sony Vegas, and iMovie are helpful.
6Upload. Since Roblox videos are popular mostly in YouTube, register to YouTube if you haven't, and upload your video for the world to see.Ad
Method 2 of 2: Using Games From Your Roblox Account
1Login to your Roblox account.
2Choose the game you want to record the video.
3Click "Play".
4When you have arrived in the game, click on the Menu arrow in the bottom left corner.
5Click on Record Video.( or just press F12 when in-game)
6When you are done recording, click on Stop in the top left corner.Ad
Give us 3 minutes of knowledge!
- While recording make sure you are at the maximum resolution you can possibly have while maintaining a good 30-60 fps WHILE recording and make sure you are using an AVI format output. This is important as raw footage needs to be uncompressed for the best editing.
- To minimize confusion, give people your time zone so they can convert the time to their zone and know exactly when to show up to start filming.
- Don't copy titles, part of a script, ideas OR someone else's copyrighted material in your videos, as the original owner will probably report about this kind of activity.
- While editing, take your time so no mistakes will be done.
Things You'll Need
- Roblox studio and roblox browser (or internet explorer).
- At least Pentium 4, 512 MB RAM, 3GHz, with Windows XP, Vista or 7. (SUGGESTED for max performance)
- YouTube account (to upload your video)
Tool suggestions
1. Recorders:
- Camstudio
- HyperCam
- Fraps
- Screencam
- Camtasia Studio (has a built in screen recorder)
- Roblox Recorder
- Mirillis Action!
2. Editors:
- Sony Vegas (movie studio is cheapest)
- Windows Movie Maker
- Adobe Premier
- Windows Live Movie Maker
- Camtasia Studios
- Pinnacle Studio
3. Special Effects:
- Sony Vegas
- Adobe After Effects
- Particle Illusion
- Game Maker pro 8

OBDII is a standard interface, and a possibility of car manufacturers to make their cars (at least in part) compatible. So you can just read the values that manufacturer implemented into OBDII layer.
On the other hand, every car has its own comminication interface (newer the car higher the possibility for CAN-bus).
That system is able to provide all the informations. Car (or brand)-dependent specific program is the keyword for you.

Oh Nenshi. I understand your being miffed that someone put you as the organizer for the Occupy Calgary event. I really do. But in the article I read, you said you didn't endorse Occupy Calgary, and you came across as someone who totally doesn't understand why Calgarians would join this movement. I was a bit stunned.
I voted for you because you seemed different. You seemed like a guy who understood that we needed change. You seemed like a guy with vision and a new take on things. Maybe I was mistaken.
Now, it is possible you were commenting on the word choice. Yes, it is Occupy Wall Street and not Occupy New York, so why are Calgarians using Occupy Calgary? Well, we don't have a sector of town like Wall Street that has that "this is where business happens" type of feel. Occupy Downtown doesn't make sense. So they chose Occupy Calgary, just as has happened in a lot of cities that aren't New York.
But I don't think that is what you were really saying. I think you meant, "What is the point? We aren't Wall Street… What does Calgary have to do with anything?" Correct me if I am wrong.
Calgary is home and host to a huge number of major corporations, both home offices and Canadian headquarters. It is an Oil and Gas Mecca. And the companies here do not all have a good track record for ethical behavior. Some of the protesters will be pointing that out. Others will no doubt be showing solidarity for the people the world over who are speaking out against unethical business and asking for a brighter future. The reasons to stand up right now and join this movement are legion. Each person who shows up at the protest will be there for reasons that they think are integral to the future of our city, our citizens, our province, our country, our economy, our global village, and our species.
I would so rather you had said something helpful, like that you were asking the citizens to protest peacefully or that you wanted the people to know that the police would be there to protect them, and not (as in so many other cities) to break them.
I thought you were the guy for me, Nenshi. I'm not ruling that out yet, but it is hard to have faith. Do you really not get why the people are willing to brave the police to have their voices heard?
This is a one per cent town, lots of oil money and conservative values. I get that. But not all of us are rich. I am the working poor. I have a college education and work a decent job, but I am divorced. I have four children and an ex-wife who rely on me in a major way to survive each month. I also have a girlfriend I live with who has a son who lives with us, and they rely on me too. I don't expect a massive paycheck, but when I graduated college 14 years ago, I was being billed out at a higher rate with no experience than I get now. The cost of living has risen dramatically, my value as a resource is markedly higher (in that I can save corporations ridiculous quantities of money), and I'm worse off than I was.
And what about my kids? What do they stand to inherit? Irresponsible government, unethical employers, and subsistence living? We can do better than that, but we won't unless things change.
And, no offence to you as a politician, but politician types aren't changing anything. Neither are shareholders or corporate management. They all are invested in things staying precisely how they are. It is what makes them the 1%.
So what would you have us do? Wait for rich people to decide money is overrated? Watch while the unions dissolve and just be happy we have jobs no matter how bad it gets? Pray? Sorry but no.
The only thing we can do is exercise our rights to speak and assemble to spread the word. The longer we do, the more heads will turn, and the more heads we turn, the more things will have to change.
So that, my dear mayor, is why we Occupy Calgary. And now I ask you, what are you going to do?
