PC's family may slam hit-run jail term as 'ridiculous' admits judge
Posted: September 29, 2012|
A JUDGE criticised "restrictive" sentencing powers as he jailed a man who injured an award-winning policeman for just 15 months.
Mitchel Graham, 26, hit off-duty PC Diederik Coetzee – dubbed 'Robocop' – knocking him off his bicycle before speeding away "leaving him for dead" last November.
The super-fit police officer sustained life-changing injuries which left him needing help to even dress himself.
The 55-year-old – who earned praise from MPs and was nicknamed "Robocop" because of his record number of arrests – suffered head injures and still requires 24-hour care.
The father-of-three is unlikely to return to work.
Graham was caught by police in Sunderland, 150 miles away from where he hit PC Coetzee with his Volkswagon Corado in Blidworth.
Yesterday he was jailed for 15 months at Nottingham Crown Court, after pleading guilty to dangerous driving, failing to stop, and failing to report the accident. The de-mister and wipers on his car had not been working.
But Judge Jonathan Teare said he would understand if PC Coetzee's family thought the sentence was "ridiculously short".
He said: "You knew that vehicle was in a dangerous condition and had known for a long time. It was 6.30pm on a winter evening, so it was dark. But PC Coetzee was fully lit, with front and rear lights and wearing a proper high visibility jacket. Because of the condition of your car you did not see him until the very last moment and you could take no avoiding action.
"Your reactions after that did you no credit at all. You stopped briefly before speeding off. You left him to die.
"He now has horrendous injuries. He is disabled for a very long time if not for life. He has suffered a personality disorder and his family and friends no longer see the dedicated, hard working man they used to know.
"I cannot say whether you were over the drink-drive limit, but because you sped away you could not give a sample that aggravates the crime.
"Those in Parliament in their wisdom have set a maximum sentence for dangerous driving at two years, and death by dangerous driving at ten years.
"Giving you credit for your guilty plea and remorse the maximum sentence I can pass is one of 15 months.
"I understand that the family and friends of Mr Coetzee may see that as ridiculously short for such a grave crime but it is all that I can give with the restrictions placed upon me."
Paul Stimson, prosecuting, read out a victim impact statement from Mr Coetzee's wife.
He said: "Our lives changed forever on November 11. Diederik was a dedicated man who embraced life to the full.
"He was a fantastic father to his three daughters and embraced every moment. Now he is in wheelchair. He needs help to go to the toilet and dress himself. His movement is extremely restricted.
"The outgoing man with a positive outlook on everything is no longer evident."
Mr Stimson added: "The defendant told police that he had had two bottles of Desperados beer that night and he may well have been over the limit.
"The de-mister on his car no longer worked and he admitted he had known the car was not in a fit state to drive."
Grace Hall, defending, said Graham had panicked when he saw he had hit a policeman. She said: "When he saw it was a policeman he had hit and the injuries he had caused he was convinced he was dead and that he was going to be charged with murder.
"He is incredibly remorseful for what has happened. He in no way ever intended to cause the injuries that he has and accepts that a custodial sentence is coming his way."
Detective Sergeant Ged Hazelwood, who led the investigation, said after the hearing:
"The entire force has been rooting for Diederik during his recuperation, and we have been supporting him and his family as they make this long and difficult journey to recovery."
PC Coetzee joined Notts Police in 1999 after working as a dog handler for the South African police.
He shot to fame in 2006 when he arrested a record 404 people.

Eye on the Economy: Home Sales Surge after Slow First Quarter
David Crowe / Eye on Housing / July 10, 2014
Housing news continued to improve as pending home sales surged following a slow first quarter. Home prices also continued to move higher but at a more moderate pace, suggesting the extra push caused by investors may be slowing. Economic news, however, was mixed. Consumer confidence increased in response to improving labor market conditions. On the other hand, new estimates from the first quarter revealed a steeper decline in real GDP. Early indications are that real GDP will reverse course from a dismal first quarter and gains in housing will continue the pace set before the end of 2013.

For Christmas, Melissa and Sam gave me a collection of cookbooks (in addition to other goodies like hand made fleur de sel caramels!) from my favorite chef, Ina Garten. Naturally, I just had to test out some recipes over the holidays. I made rum raisin rice pudding (which tastes just like the Haagen Dazs ice cream flavor!) from this Barefoot Contessa cookbook and practically licked the bowl. If you like rice pudding, you MUST try this!
- 3/4 cup raisins
- 2 tablespoons dark rum
- 3/4 cup white basmati rice
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 5 cups half-and-half, divided
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 extra-large egg, beaten
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
In a small bowl, combine the raisins and rum. Set aside.
Combine the rice and salt with 1 1/2 cups water in a medium heavy-bottomed stainless steel saucepan. Bring it to a boil, stir once, and simmer, covered, on the lowest heat for 8 to 9 minutes, until most of the water is absorbed. (If your stove is very hot, pull the pan halfway off the burner.)
Stir in 4 cups of half-and-half and sugar and bring to a boil. Simmer uncovered for 25 minutes, until the rice is very soft. Stir often, particularly toward the end. Slowly stir in the beaten egg and continue to cook for 1 minute. Off the heat, add the remaining cup of half-and-half, the vanilla, and the raisins with any remaining rum. Stir well. Pour into a bowl, and place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming. Serve warm or chilled.

Intel CEO Paul Otellini criticized Microsoft Windows 8 system that this operating system is still flawed in meeting with employees in Taiwan, and accused Microsoft released the system before it is ready.
Otellini said Windows 8 still needs some improvements. But he also said, it is the right decision to release this operating system for Microsoft before a completely ready, because it helps Microsoft and PC makers in the crucial holidays to compete with Apple in the shopping season. He also said that Microsoft can make improvements after Windows 8 shipments.
Microsoft and Intel have been closely cooperated in the past few years, but the relations between the two sides get nervous during the Microsoft was developing Windows 8, it's because Windows 8 will be the first Windows system running based on ARM architecture, and not all are based on the Intel x86 architecture. Recent the AMR version Windows RT operating system has been facing with defeat, such as Toshiba and Hewlett-Packard Company canceled production Windows RT equipments plan. At the same time, Windows 8 system is basically developing in accordance with established track, Intel has released a variety of tablet PCs and notebook designs based on this system, and plans to convene a tablet computer conference in San Francisco on Thursday.
Intel spokesman said in a statement on Tuesday, the company's staff meeting is private, Intel will not disclose specific details. The spokesman said: "We continue to believe that Windows 8 is a comprehensive major opportunity, and we are excited about the prospect of ultrabook, tablet PCs and deformable notebooks new shape coefficient.
Microsoft plans to officially release the Windows 8 operating system on October 26, the company issued a statement and said it looked forward to allowing this system to become available next month. Microsoft spokesman said: "Windows 8 active trial number is as many as 16 million people, which is the best operating system in Microsoft history with most testings and evaluation, and preparation work."

Money Back in Change
In our country, we often use cash. When you go to the convenience store in the morning, you can have 1000 rubles (one cash note) and you need bread for 18 rubles. The seller may say to you: I can't give you money back in change. I'm short on change. Then you go to another store, and another, and another.... It can be so irritating.
It's the same in my country. In the morning, especially on the weekends, we often get in customers who want to break 100 dollars (solid) on a 79 cent pack of gum, or a 33 cent piece of caramel... and we only start out with 100 dollars in our tills... I often have to tell customers that it's best to break the big bills closer to mid-day, haha.

Mandriva Linux 2010 (Free)
One of the distributions I almost always get calls for reviews of is Mandriva. Well I'm happy to say that Mandriva Linux 2010 was recently released and I decided to put it at the top of my review list. Mandriva comes in the following editions:
Mandriva Powerpack 2010
Mandriva One 2010
Mandriva Free 2010
For this review I picked the Mandriva Linux 2010 (Free) version. This version contains 100% free software and weighs in at a chunky 4.3GB when you download it. Now please understand that I am not a "free software fanatic" type at all. I have no problem using distros that have some proprietary software blended into them but I like to use one that doesn't have that stuff every once in a while.

If there was any doubt about the addictive nature of smoking, look no farther than Petty Road a block west of Ball State University's College of Architecture and Planning building. There you'll find smokers lighting up.
It's not a convenient place to smoke, but it's where smokers congregate because the university has rightfully banned all smoking on the campus effective Aug. 1 - indoors and outdoors. Failure to comply can result in a $100 fine.
Unfortunately, students congregating to smoke at the edge of campus have created a problem for neighbors, who must endure the trash, litter noise and trespassing on private property. And it's a hazard for motorists who must navigate a narrow road lined with students lighting up.
For people visiting the campus, it's not an inviting scene and does not create a favorable impression of the campus or the neighborhoods adjoining it.
Ball State could relent and allow a designated smoking area on campus. But that's not a real solution, and it completely ignores the health hazards of smoking and associated secondhand smoke, which can be nearly as dangerous.
Ball State is ticketing those caught littering. Groundskeepers pick up cigarette butts and other trash in the area daily.
It's not the best use of limited labor and resources that could be better spent on other tasks rather than picking up after irresponsible young people. Smokers know better than to drop cigarette butts on the ground.
It's become more difficult to smoke as the list of locations where it's allowed shrinks every year. That's forced many people to quit the habit. But there will always be tobacco users. One could argue the smokers lining Petty Road are a hardy - and stubborn - lot.
What's the solution?
Strict adherence to existing ordinances would only serve to move the problem into other people's back (or front) yards. In fact, that's already happened.
Instead, we urge smokers to kick the habit, with help from the university. Smokers' health will improve, they will save money and they won't be forced to walk blocks just to light up. Quitting won't be easy, but there are resources to help smokers get started. Call (800) QUIT NOW or visit www.quitnow.com for free professional help.
The university also offers resources to help students quit. The Student Health Center can help smokers get started on the road to a healthier lifestyle.
We're sure the neighbors surrounding Ball State would appreciate it, too.

With John Hampson
Click on the above link for a 26 page PDF providing an in-depth guide to the influence of solar phenomena on growth, inflation, demographics, asset cycles (stocks and commodities), sentiment, stock market seasonality and more.
CAUTION: Pages 13-21 contain some invalid information and forecasts and require changes and updates following deeper demographic research in 2013, which can be found in the site's posts.
Thank you for sharing it.
Comprehensive, careful research, strong arguments and clear presentation. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this. Thank you very much! Rufus
Extremely well researched but it is the clarity of your presentation which particularly impresses me. Most experts in esoteric areas often seem unable to convey concepts, ideas, and arguments in a manner which is understandable to non-experts. Not the case here as the guide, as well as the site overall, is very well written. Thank you for your time and effort.
Excellent. Well written, clear, well organized. Great overview.
I noticed one error you might want to correct: Page 5 you state "Roughly every 2 weeks the whole world experiences a new moon…". It's every 4 1/2 weeks or so that we have a new moon, or roughly once a month.
I must admit, that it's one of my best discoveries of this year :) I'm tired of TA and FA, then I discovered Gann and wowww… everything seems confirms that there is always sth above us that determine our life cycles and decisions. Thank You brother. If You would launch even some penny signal service dedicated for retail traders You can be sure that I'm in. Why ? coz there is many s*it around that I will always choose to give monies to sb who gives his heart to the community of traders rather then another bastard just promissing golden eggs. Keep doing Your work. Greg
Pingback: Solar Activities Exploded (14 Nov 2012) | FTP Golden Triangle
It was great to come upon your site while researching solar cycles and it's relation to the markets. I think your site is the only one of its kind, credible and objective. It's difficult to put pieces of information together like this that is useful for trading. Reading through tons of information on the web is mind twisting and it was a relief to have found you! Please don't get tired of doing great work. It's greatly appreciated!
Have you read the work of Geoff Sharp? His site is http://www.landscheidt.info/
He studies solar cycles and the influence of other planets on the cycle's modulation. It's full of information that I did not even encounter on basic solar cycle websites.

Foreclosure and Bankruptcy
Opinion rules that an attorney acting as trustee in a foreclosure proceeding may not, while serving in that capacity, file a motion to have an automatic stay lifted in the debtor's bankruptcy proceeding.
If foreclosure proceedings have been instituted against a debtor who later files for bankruptcy, may Attorney A, who serves as trustee in the foreclosure, file a motion in the bankruptcy court to set aside the automatic stay, if the debtor has not contested the noteholder's right to foreclose?
Would the answer to the foregoing inquiry change if, at the time the debtor filed for bankruptcy, any of the following were true: 1) the hearing before the clerk of court in the foreclosure proceeding had not yet been held; 2) the hearing had been held but the 10-day appeal period had not yet run; 3) the 10-day appeal period had expired.
Finally, may Attorney A charge fees for his services pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat.§ 6-21.2?
CPR 166 provides that an attorney who serves as trustee may represent neither the lender not the borrower in a "role of advocacy" in the foreclosure proceeding. So long as the attorney remains trustee, the attorney owes a fiduciary duty to both the borrower and lender. This duty would be violated if the attorney assumed the role of an advocate.
CPR 305 held that the filing of a motion to set aside the automatic bankruptcy stay places the attorney in an adversarial position. Consequently, Attorney A may not properly file such a motion while serving as trustee in the foreclosure. The answer to this inquiry remains the same, regardless of the stage to which the foreclosure had progressed when the debtor filed for bankruptcy.
Finally, the question whether Attorney A may collect legal fees pursuant to N.C. Gen. Stat. §6.21.2 appears to be moot in view of the above ruling.

Vinland Fair benefit supper
February 24, 2010
There will be a whole hog sausage and pancake supper to benefit the Vinland Fair from 5 to 7:30 p.m. March 6 at the Exhibition Building on the fairgrounds.
The traditional benefit supper, dating back more than 60 years, also will give the public a peek at the 22 new windows in the building. The custom made windows are crafted to look exactly like the original windows in the building, which was constructed in 1927 by Vinland Grange members and others in the community.
The Kansas Heritage Trust Fund granted the Vinland Fair Association $10,992 to replace the windows in the building, which has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2004.
The fair association is responsible for the remaining 20 percent of the project cost.

The project history
WinDisp has its origins with the Global Information and Early Warning System (GIEWS) of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations. The GIEWS required an integrated information system to keep up with the ever-increasing flow of data. In response to this need, the GIEWS, with funding and support from the European Commission, developed an integrated information system now known as the "GIEWS Workstation".
WinDisp was developed as the map and image display module of the GIEWS Workstation, permitting GIEWS analysts to analyse, integrate, and overlay digital map and satellite data in common windows on their desktop PCs. It was designed to make the display and analysis of satellite images, maps and associated databases as simple as possible.
WinDisp is often termed the successor to the Image Display and Analysis (IDA) software. IDA was developed in the mid-1980s by the USAID Famine Early Warning System (FEWS) Project. IDA has been used extensively within the early warning community for the analysis of low resolution, high frequency satellite imagery in near real-time.
WinDisp has evolved from an MS-Windows based image display tool for viewing IDA images in Versions 1.0 and 2.0, to a fully functional, multilingual, image analysis and map display software tool for early warning in its current version.
The IDA user community was looking for an MS-Windows based version of IDA and proposed that WinDisp 2.0 be enhanced to incorporate all of the analytical features of the IDA for DOS program.
Funding was obtained for WinDisp 3.0 from the US Agency for International Development's Famine Early Warning System (FEWS) Project, the Southern African Development Community (SADC) Regional Remote Sensing Project (RRSP), the USDA Forest Service (USFS) Intermountain Fire Sciences Laboratory, and the US Geological Survey (USGS) EROS Data Center.
FAO further enhanced the capabilities of WinDisp which resulted in the current Version 3.5. The European Commission was the primary source of funds for the further development of the GIEWS Workstation and WinDisp 4.0. In addition, the FAO Africa Real Time Environmental Monitoring Information System (ARTEMIS) and a Ministère de la Coopération Française funded activity at the GIEWS also helped fund additional enhancements to Version 3.5.
WinDisp3.5 was modified to support multilingual versions of the menus and on-line help files as part of the effort to distribute the Workstation to other early warning units in non-English speaking countries. A multi-lingual dictionary currently allows the user to choose between English and French versions of the software. The dictionary can also be adapted for other languages. All WinDisp menus, the on-line help, and reference documents are now available in English and French.
Version 3.5 supported English and French, and a Spanish interface was added in Version 4.0. All WinDisp menus are related to Windisp 4.0, the on-line help, and reference documents are now available in English, French and Spanish. The multi-lingual dictionary can be modified to support other languages. In addition to the new Spanish interface, WinDisp 4.0 also offers new functions with respect to Version 3.5 including on-screen digitizing, the use of ESRI Shape files as a vector file format, and far greater options for developing, automating and customizing map and image legends.
Based upon a recent analysis of the programme, its structure and FAO GIEWS internal and external use needs, a full 32 bit version have been produced. Version 5 for internal evaluation and a final version 5.1 was realised for worldwide testing during October 2002. Through a trust fund project, the European Commission made the upgrade possible. The interface, view manipulation, registry evaluation and interaction with other MS applications were large improved. Language support as well as help and use manuals will be adapted in due time. Linked to the FAO Artemis use survey, a complete use survey for Windisp is underway. This will determine if Windisp will be further adapted or extended.

* X-Bolt Rifles
X-Bolt Rifles. Locating and stalking a trophy whitetail buck, bull elk, desert bighorn or other big game animal takes planning, persistence, patience and a whole lot of luck. If you are able to get close enough to center your scope's crosshairs on the vitals of a once-in-a-lifetime animal, you had better be prepared to take the luck out of the shot and rely on your rifle's accuracy and your own skill.
The beauty of the X-Bolt is that it was designed right from the start for Total Accuracy. Every component, from the crowned muzzle to the Inflex Technology recoil pad, work in unison to maximize the nail-driving accuracy potential of the rifle. The rifle shown in the ad to the right, the Composite Stalker, is available in a wide variety of calibers for your every need. Visit Planet X-Bolt to view all the X-Bolt models we offer, there's sure to be one to meet your needs.
At the heart of the X-Bolt and its Total Accuracy advantage is the Feather Trigger. For accurate shooting there is no substitute for a precision trigger. This advanced three-lever trigger design gives you a crisp feel with no take-up or creep and minimal overtravel. In other words, predictable performance that is normally reserved for a custom rifle, aftermarket trigger or trip to the gunsmith. The trigger is adjustable from 3 to 5 lbs. and comes factory pre-set at approximately 3½ lbs. Hard chromed steel components are highly polished on all critical contact surfaces to minimize drag. Precise engagement angles mean the X-Bolt Feather Trigger feels light and stays that way through many thousands of rounds. It all comes wrapped in a lightweight alloy housing.
In addition to the Feather Trigger, the X-Bolt has several other features that give it the Total Accuracy advantage:
- Precision Free-Floated Barrel - A free-floating barrel is essential for utmost accuracy. We float the X-Bolt barrel by bedding the front and rear of the action to maintain proper barrel to stock spacing. A recessed muzzle crown protects the rifling from damage. Barrels are triple checked for interior finish, straightness and air-gauged for uniformity.
- Inflex Technology Recoil Pad - The Inflex Technology recoil pad is standard on every X-Bolt rifle. This ultra soft pad offers the best recoil absorption available on any rifle. The proprietary construction and material promote a directional deflection of recoil forces. When you shoot, the ribs in the Inflex pad pull the stocks comb down and away from your face to increase comfort and reduce felt recoil and muzzle climb.
- X-Lock™ Scope Mounting System - Securely mounted optics are essential for accuracy and precision on any rifle. To ensure the X-Bolt has the most stable scope mounting system possible, X-Lock mounts feature a four screw per base design that replaces the traditional two screw system. With the bases secured at all four corners, you get more accurate placement and more secure attachment to the receiver.
- Magazine - The X-Bolt uses a unique detachable rotary magazine that is made from a durable, lightweight polymer. Cartridges are picked up from the center of the magazine, directly in-line with the bolt, for a straight shot right into the chamber instead of offset as with traditional leaf-spring magazines. An ergonomic magazine-mounted release lets the magazine rotate directly downward and into your hand. The magazine sits flush with the bottom of the rifle for a sleek appearance. Additional magazines can be kept loaded and carried for easy access.
- 60° Bolt Lift - Short 60° bolt lift is fast cycling and allows you to work the bolt quickly without the scope getting in the way. The bolt is machined from solid steel bar stock for strength and custom rifle precision. Three locking lugs provide exceptional bolt strength.??• Bolt Unlock Button - This neat feature is ergonomically located on top of the bolt handle and allows the bolt to be unlocked and opened with the safety in the on safe position. The bolt unlock button works in conjunction with the ?top-tang safety to provide an extra margin of safety when checking and unloading the chamber. The safety blocks the trigger sear and features a firing pin block for added security.
- Bolt - The bolt is machined from a solid chunk of steel bar stock for strength and custom rifle precision. The three locking lug design offers exceptional strangth.
- Tang Safety - The tang safety is the easiest to reach, most ergonomic in the gun industry.
- Stock - Composite X-Bolt models combine in-molded textured gripping surfaces and Browning's proven Dura-Touch® Armor Coating for a sure hold and a sleek feel regardless of the weather conditions. Wood stocks are sharply checkered in a functional, stylish pattern to optimize grip.
- One last feature of note is the fit of the X-Bolt, which is nothing short of all Browning. The X-Bolt has a trim fore-end that is accomodating of hands of every size. The tight radius pistol grip affords optimal reach to the trigger and aids recoil control. The sleek dimensions make for a rifle that looks and feels light and compact, and comes to the shoulder with an unbelievable ease.

DILLARD, NICHOLAS (?–?). Nicholas Dillard, one of Stephen F. Austin's Old Three Hundred colonists, received title to a sitio of land now in Brazoria County on August 16, 1824. The census of 1826 listed him as a farmer, stock raiser, and single man between the ages of twenty-five and forty. He sold land on Cedar Lake to James Davis in January 1827 and later bought land on part of the original DeMoss grant as well as on Bay Prairie. Austin called Dillard captain, but whether the title is that of a military or a seafaring officer is not known. Dillard was apparently an importer or a merchant; in 1827 Austin owed him for clothing and sugar as well as other merchandise. In 1833 Dillard was involved in litigation relating to the legal practice of William B. Travis.

David Ragan, No. 34 Taco Bell Ford
Starting Position: 41
Finishing Position: 27
Temperamental tires played a starring role in Sunday's 400-mile Sprint Cup Series race in Southern California. Numerous drivers suffered blown tires on the rough surface of Auto Club Speedway, and Front Row's drivers were no exception.
David Ragan and the No. 34 Taco Bell team battled a tough-handling race car for much of the afternoon. After starting 41st, Ragan felt his Ford Fusion was too tight through the turns and didn't have enough grip, a condition that continued throughout the race. With seven cautions through the first three-quarters of the race — most due to blown tires on other cars — the team took advantage of each opportunity to bring the car to pit road to make adjustments, as well as put on fresh tires to avoid similar misfortunes themselves. Quick work by the pit crew helped pick up some spots on the race track as well.
Unfortunately, the tire bug finally got the No. 34 on Lap 167 as Ragan was pushing toward the top 25. The Taco Bell Ford suffered a left front flat, forcing an unscheduled pit stop and knocking the team back to 35th.
Ragan had worked his way back up to 29th when the final caution of the day came out on Lap 199 to set up a green-white-checkered finish. In the final two-lap dash to the finish, he picked up two more positions to cross the line in 27th. He also earned a bonus point for leading a lap earlier in the race.
Comments from Taco Bell team driver David Ragan after the Fontana race:
"We didn't have the best set-up for our car at the start of the race. Trying to figure out this new aero package, and doing it on a rough track here in California, made for a bit of a struggle at the beginning. But we made a lot of improvements, and our pit crew did a good job. To come home with a 27th-place finish, it doesn't look great, but it's a good day considering what could've happened when we had the left front tire issue. We've still got a lot of work to figure out how to make our Taco Bell Ford faster at these types of race tracks. But we salvaged a decent day today and we're on to one of my favorite tracks next week in Martinsville."
David Gilliland, No. 38 Love's Travel Stops Ford
Starting Position: 29
Finishing Position: 38
David Gilliland and the No. 38 Love's Travel Stops team took the green flag in 29th with some confidence, knowing they'd had a solid car throughout the weekend. Gilliland found some early speed and grip, pushing his way up to 23rd. But as the car settled in over a run, he found it to be tight-handling through the turns, and he fell outside the top 30.
Frequent yellow flags allowed the pit crew to work on the car. And the adjustments helped, as the Love's car got better as the day wore on. By Lap 140, Gilliland had climbed into the top 20.
But the tire epidemic hit the No. 38 on Lap 167 — the same lap as his teammate David Ragan. A blown tire sent Gilliland into the wall, causing heavy damage to the back of the car. The team pitted multiple times under the ensuing caution to make repairs and sent their driver back out in 37th two laps down.
Despite the heavy damage, Gilliland was able to continue logging laps, and he crossed the finish in 38th. He also gained a bonus point for leading a lap during the race.
Comments from Love's Travel Stops team driver David Gilliland after the Fontana race:
"Our Love's Travel Stops Ford wasn't exactly what we wanted at the beginning of the race, but we worked on it and made it better. Frank (Kerr) made some good calls on adjustments and the pit crew did a good job making them quickly, and we definitely got better as the race went on. We didn't have tire issues all weekend, so I think we must've run over something on the track to cut the tire. It's frustrating that that happened because we could've had a much better finish with the improvements we were making."
David Reutimann, No. 35 MDS Transport Ford
Starting Position: 33
Finishing Position: 29
David Reutimann started his first race for Front Row Motorsports Sunday at Auto Club Speedway. Rolling off 33rd, the driver reported similar concerns as his teammates, saying the MDS Transport Ford needed help getting through the turns better.
With every pit stop, the No. 35 crew worked to give him better control in the turns and more grip on the exits as the team hung around the top 30. By Lap 175, Reutimann had gained from his teammates' tire misfortunes, moving past them, up into 27th.
But not many cars avoided tire problems this weekend and the MDS Ford wasn't going to escape them either. The car blew the right rear tire on Lap 179, forcing an unscheduled pit stop. Reutimann returned to the field in 35th to make up what ground he could in the remaining 20 laps. Those laps did bring opportunities to make gains, as he moved up five positions by the time final yellow flag flew on Lap 199. He took one more spot on the green-white-checkered laps to finish 29th and also earned a bonus point for leading a lap during the race.
Comments from MDS Transport team driver David Reutimann after the Fontana race:
"This place is so tricky. And our car just wasn't handing all that great. But Todd (Anderson) kept throwing everything he had at it. And with everyone else blowing tires, we thought we could be the beneficiaries of that and move up some more through the field. But then it was our turn and that set us back again. But we gained some spots at the end there, finished in the top 30 and learned a lot."

Good for them! My taxes went from approx. $5,000 in 2002 to over $14,000 in 2013. Biggest rip-off - no services (garbage, etc.). We are forced to move out of town.
More than 100 local seniors and a handful of other residents concerned about escalating local property taxes and the role the latest town revaluation played in tax increases converged at Newtown High School Tuesday, October 15, for an informational forum hosted by the Board of Finance.
First Selectman Pat Llodra, Interim School Superintendent John Reed, Finance Director Robert Tait, Assessor Chris Kelsey, and members of the Legislative Council and Board of Education were also on hand.
While finance board Chairman John Kortze admitted the session might not be "an aspirin for the headaches" taxpayers are suffering over revaluation related tax increases, he said officials were committed to hearing and trying to respond to concerns expressed during a series of informal meetings he has been attending at various senior communities in town.
Resident Rudy Magnan, who is organizing a political action group called the Newtown League of Senior Voters, was first to speak. He said when he moved to Newtown five or six years ago, he and his wife "thought we found paradise. But then taxes started going up."
Mr Magnan said he had previously met with a host of town officials over mistakes in the valuation of his residence on Watkins Drive, but when he received his latest tax bill he "became anxious, even angered."
Speaking on behalf of the newly formed league, he told officials Tuesday, "If we don't get the respect and a reduction in taxes, we are considering retaining legal council to resolve the issue."
Mr Tait and Mr Kelsey used a projected display to review questions provided to them in advance, and their answers. They also addressed several specific points, including errors found in valuations at the Liberty and Regency over-55 communities.
Mr Kelsey said that all the errors have been identified and corrected, and adjustments in favor of the owners involved will be posted in new second round tax bills that are due in January 2014.
Mr Tait responded to submitted questions, including whether the town could abate the portion of local taxes that qualifying property owners pay toward the local school district budget. He said that state law prohibits such a practice.
In response to requests to increase the income cap for Newtown's senior tax abatement program, he noted that existing benefits are as good or better than most neighboring communities in Fairfield County.
The finance director also acknowledged that in Connecticut, after a revaluation in any community, taxpayers experience "rate shock."
Mrs Llodra reminded the audience that Newtown has regularly raised the cap on the amount allocated to the tax collector for senior tax abatement several times in recent years.
"But every time we raise the cap, we are shifting that tax burden to others," Mrs Llodra said. "And all taxpayers are suffering."
She said that over the past five fiscal cycles, Newtown's municipal operating budget has only increased by about one percent before debt service for town and school capital borrowing is added.
Don Leonard, who lives at Liberty, said that he believes the issue of fairness is at stake.
"We all saw decreased property values, but only some saw an increase in [taxation]. Something is wrong in the balance," Mr Leonard observed.
The Liberty resident also said that he is away part of the year. As a result, he did not receive his revaluation figures until after the deadline for appeals had passed.
Mr Leonard asked why his revaluation notice could not be copied to him electronically, and Mr Kelsey responded that state law mandates assessors send those notices only to the affected address by US mail.
Another Liberty resident, Ken Gillet said that the only alternative seniors may have to combat future tax increases is at the ballot box. He inferred that seniors can send a message by voting accordingly on both proposed future budgets, as well as in November when local officials are up for reelection.
Jim Spinner admitted his Mt Nebo Road home is among the largest residences in town, but said his most recent tax increase jumped from $19,000 to $34,000. This comment brought gasps of shock from the audience.
"I think the system is broken," Mr Spinner said. "I can't afford to stay in Newtown."
Gary Fillion, one of the few younger taxpayers at the forum, said while the revaluation on his modest Underhill Road property increased incrementally — by just $2,000 — his taxes increased about the same amount, from $5,000 to $7,000.
After a brief break, during which many of the audience departed, Mr Kortze noted that many elected officials were on hand to hear the feedback, and that it would behoove them all to talk about other ways the community might control taxation, especially on seniors and other more economically disadvantaged residents.
He said those discussions should be held publicly and with taxpayer input and participation.
After the meeting, Mrs Llodra told The Bee that what she and other officials were hearing at the forum was "very concerning."
"These issues are legitimate, they are real, and people are anxious," the first selectman observed. "The results of the reval appear so uneven, and make it appear that a small population is bearing a disproportionate burden."
She also reiterated concerns about how increasing assistance for fixed-income residents would affect the balance of local taxpayers, and expressed some frustration about the scope of the challenge.
"Newtown can't become a place where people on fixed incomes can't live," Mrs Llodra said. "But the big elephant in the room is the general level of taxation. We have a revenue issue and if we don't find new revenues, I don't know how we can provide more help."
The first selectman said, while it does not help fixed-income families locally, the issue of escalating property taxes and down trending revenue is both a Connecticut and New England issue, and not exclusive to Newtown.

Word has spread that the two-year pact QB Kevin Kolb signed in Buffalo is only worth $6 million. Mike Florio says if Kolb is even with the team come September, his salary indicates it'll likely be in a backup role. With Tarvaris Jackson still in the fold, Florio believes the Bills will use a draft pick on a QB, and demand Kolb and Jackson to duke it out for the backup spot.

Celebrities should know when you fully disclose your private life, trouble is sure to follow.
After Basketball Wives star ROYCE REED put her relationship out there with Tampa Bay Buccaneers player DEZMON BRISCOE, his baby mother has fired shots at their relationship and accused him of cheating.
BRISCOE is said to have sent the mother of his child, Christina Nero, text messages asking her for sex and professing his love for her while currently in a relationship with REED.
The allegations started off as a Twitter rant by NERO when she viewed the latest episode of BBW.
"I swear I almost threw up over watching bbw fake ass relationship," baby momma CHRISTINA wrote on Twitter.
"In your 30 and your ass too Gullible #NotAGoodLookMa'm," she continued, "You got your Ol Lady thinking she on Cloud 9 but I bet your ass if I where to send these text you sent me to her twitter it will be WRAP."
ROYCE attempted to call her bluff by tweeting, "Hows Jr? Can't wait to meet him! He's getting so big," to which Christina responded: "Lol he is good hun, thanks for asking since your "boyfriend" never does and as for meeting him I wouldn't hold my breath if I was you."
After shaming REED for not encouraging her man to see his son, CHRISTINA put her baby father text on blast for the world to see that included times, dates, and even DEZMON's actual phone number.
Two of the most hurtful messages read, "I love you and Thank you. What would you say if I wanted to have sex with you again…I want to bend you over and spread your ass cheeks…"
Followed by a text that DEZMON asks CHRISTINA does she want it, and CHRISTINA responds, "What happened to Royce," and he answers with "That's so so not the topic Christina."
ROYCE didn't believe this though and claims CHRISTINA had her friend write the messages, and changed the name of the sender.

Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke is keeping an eye on the housing market.
- Filed Under
If you take away one thing from Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke's testimony to Congress Wednesday, it's this: The Fed really, really wants the housing rally to continue.
During his testimony to the House Financial Services Committee, Bernanke mentioned that financial conditions had tightened recently. Currently, the fed funds rate is close to zero, and the Fed has continued to buy mortgage securities in its bid to keep long-term interest rates low.
So which financial conditions have tightened recently? Thirty-year fixed mortgage rates, which soared from 3.35 percent on May 2 to ...

Understanding the exposure of the nation's living marine resources to ocean acidification is a primary goal for the observing portfolio supported by the NOAA OAP. Repeat hydrographic surveys, ship-based surface observations, and time series stations (mooring and ship-based) in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans, have allowed us to begin to understand the long-term changes in the carbonate chemistry of the oceans in response to ocean acidification. NOAA's Ocean Acidification Program works to enhance the nation's observing capacity in order to better understand the nation's vulnerability to continued ocean and Great Lakes acidification. This effort is made possible by working with many line offices and programs within NOAA, partnering with federal and state agencies, and academic and private institutions.
Monitoring for ocean acidification demands high quality observations that allow for full characterization of how ocean chemistry is changing in response to ocean acidification. When people typically think of ocean acidification, they think of pH. However, ocean acidification affects several aspects of the carbonic acid system (pH, CO2 partial pressure (pCO2), carbonate ion availability, total dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC) each potentially affecting marine life in different ways. Fully constraining the carbonate system demands not only measuring temperature and salinity, but also knowledge of at least two of four measurable dissolved inorganic carbon parameters: pH, DIC, total alkalinity, and/or the pCO2. Our autonomous fixed and underway OA platforms build on a network of moorings which were originally designed to measure the flux of CO2 into the ocean. More recently, pH has been added to these platforms in an effort to estimate the calcium carbonate saturation state of the waters. In addition, dedicated geochemical ship survey efforts are employed to monitor all four parameters from water samples collected in both surface and deep water environments throughout most of the coastal U.S. Large Marine Ecosystems. Dissolved oxygen (O2), is also a common measurement offering insight into the local biogeochemical controls on OA dynamics. Measuring these variables offers insight into the rate of flux of CO2 into the ocean from the atmosphere, and how that flux affects carbonate chemistry, saturation state , and the biological status and feedbacks of various ecosystems.
The map above depicts current NOAA OA observing efforts currently underway in red circles. Current tracks of volunteer observing ships (VOSs) are shown by green lines. VOSs are ships travelling for commercial or non-scientific purposes that have been equipped with instruments that measure temperature, salinity and pCO2 with automated carbon dioxide analyzers as well as thermosalinographs (TSGs). These greatly enhance the area in which carbon data can be collected. The blue lines depict hydrographic research cruises dedicated to collect OA samples.
There are many approaches and platforms from which these observations can be made. To find out more about the various instruments currently used and being developed by NOAA OA researchers and partners explore the various links to the right.

The Alaska Ocean Acidification Buoy Network- April 8th, 2013
Scientists at Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory (PMEL) and the Ocean Acidification Center at University of Alaska Fairbanks maintain four buoys in the Gulf of Alaska and Bering Sea that comprise a network to monitor ocean chemistry in sub-arctic waters. These high latitude waters are of much interest and concern because cold waters more readily absorb CO2, which causes a decrease pH and saturation state. Additionally, the predicted reduction of sea ice in this region can increase the uptake of CO2 due to 1) increased freshwater input from melt-water and rivers 2) more seawater being exposed to the atmosphere to absorb CO2 and 3) alteration of the production and decomposition of organic carbon due to increased surface area of ocean water.
The effort, led by Jeremy Mathis (PMEL), has successfully deployed three of the four OA monitoring buoys, with only buoy "M2" remaining to be deployed in the Bering Sea. Natalie Monacci and Dan Naber at the University of Alaska have been on the ground and in the water for the past month preparing these instruments for sea. Pictures above display the scenic view from the platforms deployed thus far. "GAKOA" is just outside of Resurrection Bay in the Northern Gulf of Alaska. "SEAK" is in the eastern Gulf of Alaska near Port Conclusion. Finally, "Chiniak" is just south of Kodiak Island. All three moorings are streaming real-time data at PMEL, along with all of the other coastal moorings from around the world.
The final buoy in the network, "M2" will be deployed very shortly. Wishing them the best of luck as the Alaska Ocean Acidification Buoy Network becomes a reality!

Helping the Deaf Hear Music
Page 3 of 3
We did the test again with Fidelity 120. I did better on the melody test this time, scoring about 20 percent. That was closer to the mean score, which, Rubinstein told me, was 25 percent.
But John Redden had done far better. Redden gave me his score on the melody test: 100 percent. For a cochlear-implant user, that was an extraordinary score. Having a professionally trained brain for music probably helped. Richard Reed, a musician who had lost his hearing at 37 and gotten an implant at 46, had scored 86 percent. Only a handful of the subjects had gotten scores in that range.
Rubinstein says that people like Redden and Reed are proof of what's possible. He told me, "I don't want to lead people to unrealistic expectations of the ability to hear music with a cochlear implant, but in fact, the results are better than we expect." There were, of course, the high scorers, but even many of the low scorers on the melody test had still done well on the pitch-perception test, as I had.
The scores suggested that the nascent capacity to perceive pitch was there, waiting to be exploited with better software and better training. For example, Rubinstein's lab has been experimenting with an algorithm using a phenomenon called stochastic resonance to improve music perception.
So there was a good reason for the melody test to be hard, I realized. It was not an impossible test for implant users, but merely a very difficult test. It was a simple, easy to use, and reliable test that let researchers measure the performance of new algorithms objectively. (A paper giving data on a larger group of subjects and demonstrating test-retest reliability is currently in review, Rubinstein says.)
The test also lets subjects measure progress over time. If in 10 years scores have doubled, that will mean that implant users really are hearing the basic elements of music better.
The test would also make it easier for researchers to analyze the performance of "superlisteners" like John Redden so that, ultimately, they can develop new software to let other deaf people hear music better.
Michael Chorost covers implanted technologies for Technology Review. His book, Rebuilt: How Becoming Part Computer Made Me More Human, came out in 2005.
