She said that since 2000, more than $3 billion of mass transit money has been redirected to the general fund, and the number will exceed $4 billion if the governor's current proposal goes through.
"This isn't just a problem this year it's a chronic problem. And public transportation is chronically being leaned on for relief," she said. "It's just not a sustainable system."
Carli Paine of the Transportation and Land Use Coalition explained the finer points of California's complicated system for funding or not funding improvements to the public transit system. Transit's main account is called the State Transit Assistance Program. This money is flexible, but is mostly used for transit operations (maintenance, operations, fuel, mechanics, drivers, and so forth). Sometimes, though, it is used for capital projects (such as buying new tracks or replacement cars).
The STAP is the largest portion of the public transportation account, and the funding is critical. As Paine put it, "If you can't even operate the system that you have, it doesn't help much to have money to lay new tracks." The STAP is therefore often the focus of discussions about transit funding.
Prop. 42, which directs California's gas tax to transportation projects, funds the STAP, although not all Prop. 42 money goes there. For example, 25 percent of Prop. 42 revenue goes to a special account for transit capital projects.
Prop. 1B is another big source of transit funding. It is the 2006 measure that allowed California to sell $19.9 billion worth of bonds to fund transportation programs. Only about $4 billion of that was allocated to public transportation, with the lion's share of the money going toward new freeway projects.
This is where things get a little complicated.
California originally had a sales tax on all goods except gasoline. In the 1970s, voters passed Prop. 42, which decided that it would be more equitable to reduce the sales tax rate by a fraction of a percentage point, but expand the sales tax to include gasoline.
This was expected to be revenue-neutral for the state, so it wouldn't cost people more. That was true unless gas prices rose quicker than the cost of all goods, which it eventually did.
Then-Gov. Ronald Reagan argued that it was important to return the extra revenue to public transportation because when gas prices rise, more people use public transit. As a result, this "spillover" has been set aside for transit expansion.
Last year was the first year in which the spillover was diverted to the general fund instead of being given to the STAP. It was redirected to help close the state deficit, and the 200809 budget proposes doing the same thing this fiscal year. (Janna Brancolini)

Brains, brawn and beauty: a great smartphone
Has LG made the world's first great curved smartphone?
An excellent phone that is now just better by newcomers
Will the LG G3 help LG makes it way to the top of the smartphone pile? We went hands on to get our first impressions.
A good all-rounder that still gives newer rivals a run for their money
If you can forgive the lower res screen, the G Flex offers all the goodness of the G2 with an added curvy cool factor
This budget smartphone doesn't challenge the best phones around but solid all-round performance make it an affordable alternative
It may not stand out from the crowd in terms of style or spec, but it's a worthy alternative to the best
Lots to like, but audio and video playback isn't great
The LG LB40 appears fantastic in the flesh but it's flawed in practice

Lagos Airport
Chinedu Eze
The Nigeria Airspace Management Agency (NAMA) has concluded plans to install the Automatic Dependence Surveillance Broadcast (ADSB) and multilateration system for the observation of low flying helicopters involved in oil and gas activities.
The Federal Government would also use the system to monitor movements of unauthorised flying aircraft, arms smuggling and the use of illegal airstrips that are ubiquitously located at different areas of the Niger Delta.
Top official of the agency told THISDAY that although the Total Radar Coverage of Nigeria (TRACON) covered the nation's airspace, all radars in the world do not cover low altitudes flying aircraft and that explains why during wars pilots fly below the radar to avoid detection.
"We are going to have increased safety. It is going to help search and rescue and obviously it is going to help security too because it can detect movement of any flying object in that area. So it has both safety and security impact on the system," the official said.
Many helicopters airlifting for oil and gas activities fly as low as 1000 feet which is well below the scope of the radar.
The objective this project, the official disclosed is for the agency to boost its revenue, secure the Niger Delta area in terms of safety and also in terms of security.
"In the Gulf of Guinea (the Niger Delta) what you have going on there is that you have very low flying helicopters, as low as 1000 feet- that is below the radar detection area. So it is not a defect of the TRACON system, but the propagation pattern of radars all over the world: primary surveillance radar and secondary surveillance radar.
"So what you now have is that there are other technologies that give you that coverage. One of them is ADSB and the other one is multilateration. There are two types; you have ADSC, which is Automatic Dependence Surveillance Contract. We are going to do a matrix of ADSB and Multilateration in that zone."
The project when completed will put all the aircraft activities under surveillance in the Niger Delta.
"So all the helicopters operating in that place will be under detection; don't forget we already have control centres in Lagos and Kano and Port Harcourt that support ADSB. The TRACON system is ADSB compatible, so it supports ADSB signal. So all we need to do now is to install hardware, both ADSB and multilateration in the Gulf of Guinea and we can detect the movement of low flying helicopters.
The NAMA official also explained that offshore oil rigs were as farther away as 130 nautical miles from Port Harcourt.
"What that means that if that helicopter is not under radar detection, you can't have any air traffic control there. You just have oil companies based work stations. So we have identified this gap. For this low flying helicopter to come under our control there should be a form of surveillance there. And that is why we are deploying Multilateration and ADSB. These are like overlay technology to the TRACON," the official added.

American Beauty by AlisaKissWatch
©2013-2016 AlisaKiss
Title inspired by the film. A shoot a did a few years back. The fake petals didn't float the way real petals would have and they turned the water red. Created a different look than I envisioned, but I still liked it.
Very cute
This shot is better then the whole movie. Amazing!!
Better than the movie!
I love your figure!
This Is Hot
Wow... incredible...
cant explain XP
I think you captured the pose really well. It looks amazing!
beautiful goddess!
Wow. Love it, even if the petals didn't come out exactly how you wanted them. Doesn't take anything away from you.
simply beautiful.
Gorgeous pic!
International Beauty!!!
International Beauty!!!
Wonderful done!
Super sexy.
Magnificent! Pity the petals didn't float, but it made for an interesting effect.
Better than Mena Suvari, IMHO
" I have the soap ! I have the soap ! May I help ? "
Very nice picture ( and model,of course ) My opinion is that tinted water is an add for final effect, even if not expected.
I love it Alisa!!!
Fantastic! Now we need to see it with real rose petals. I will bring as many as you need! :-D
great pic
The reddish water kinda put me in an unsexy frame of mind. Heh, trust a woman to say something like that, eh?
Fantastic! American Beauty indeed.
very nice, good pose and look.
Amazing! You were very brave to do such a photo. Congratulations on such a beautiful photo!
Very nice indeed
Now that's HOTT girl, sure there's enough water to prevent a fire?
Regardless of the snafu, it turned out very well. The picture has that iconic look down pat.
I always knew there were reasons why I appreciate the beauty of the female nude in art - and this photo is one of those reasons.
I absolutely love the contrast betwen the eyes and the rest of the work. Everything is so very sensual and comfortably dynamic, and then BAM! the eyes catch you looking. Everything is so pale and cold, then the petals warm things and distract, but the eyes and the oh, so subtle smile. It reminds me of being caught looking at some gorgeous woman when I was young, instilling that same sense of being 'caught.' Very nice work.
Mmmmmmmhhmmmmm...always loved your American Beauty pics.
Never envied rose petals before
This is really lovely!
Y'know, Alisa? I think the reddish water actually helps create a bit of a color balance... Just my two cents, at least..

In this proof of concept I hypothesized that much like an orange gel adds orange to your foreground ie. adds blue to your background – red could add green to your background when using a custom white balance. Including lighting diagrams and details about the gels used – this is a great example of using gels creatively can achieve extraordinary possibilities. Take a look, you might learn somethign about how to creatively use those Rosco Gels in a new way!

Teen mother of newborn buried in NC yard arrested
LOUISBURG, N.C (AP) -- A North Carolina teenager whose newborn baby died and was buried in her family's suburban yard faces a felony charge of concealing the birth.
Franklin County District Attorney Sam Currin said Tuesday the 16-year-old mother was charged with the lowest class of felony and released on $50,000 bond. Currin said the teenager has no prior criminal record. That means a conviction could carry between 3 months and 8 months of community service under the state's sentencing grid.
Currin said Franklin County sheriff deputies handled the arrest and he didn't know the teen's name. Jones did not return a call seeking comment.
Authorities last month found a full-term baby girl weighing 8

Jim. I am a big fan of your work. I was disappointed by the article though. I think it's great that we are championing bills like this. If the economics don't work in said bill why not try to figure out ways to make them work. You have a far better grasp on our economics than most. I would love to see a group try and help steer the Rs in the right direction. There are legions of people who would love to help get a balanced budget amendment to a place where it would be passed.
- Robert
Or, we just have the discipline to not raise the debt ceiling! That forces a balanced budget — we spend no more than the $2.6 trillion we collect in receipts. It's simple math, but if we don't have the resolve to adhere to the current debt limit ceiling we don't stand a chance of ever amending the constitution to require a balanced budget.
- LarryG
GDP as a metric is terrible and almost guaranteed to continue the polarization about how much to spend on what.
the better metric is what percent of available revenues – and live with it.
pick a number for defense and national security – and apply it to your available revenues – and live with it.
whatever is left over from DOD/NS – allocate it to govt programs and entitlements – and live with it.
but I doubt seriously that the GOP is truly serious about a balanced budget amendment if we focus on available revenues.
they'l bail out of that discussion once they realize the reality of the real numbers.
regardless of GDP – we currently have available about 1.5 trillion in revenues. This is the reality.
How would you allocate that ?
No one who is really serious is going to say that every penny of that has to go to DOD and ND but I'm willing to listen… to those who say they have a plan – as long as they deal with the realities and not phony GDP metrics.
- juandos
Ahhh, windy and factless as usual…
CBO report dated february 5, 2013: Deficits are projected to increase later in the coming decade, however, because of the pressures of an aging population, rising health care costs, an expansion of federal subsidies for health insurance, and growing interest payments on federal debt. As a result, federal debt held by the public is projected to remain historically high relative to the size of the economy for the next decade. By 2023, if current laws remain in place, debt will equal 77 percent of GDP and be on an upward path, CBO projects…
Is the CBO report believable?
The government has a long history of wasting extorted tax dollars on useless programs…
- LarryG
The CBO report is believable but should be compared to the OMB also but the AEI "report" on Head Start is just more anti-govt blather.
I do not dispute the CBO projections about entitlements into the future. There is no question they will have to change and perhaps in dramatic ways but I also do not take the balanced budget folks seriously if they want to talk about percent of GDP rather than the DOD percent of available revenues – that ARE laid out in the CBO projections.
Can't have it both ways. You cannot just pretend that DOD can spent as a percent of GDP while at the same time talking about actual dollars of entitlements.
Let's talk dollars for both – as a percent of available revenues to spend rather than some cockamamie GDP percentage that is disconnected from fiscal realities.
- skh.pcola
Pfft. More nonsense from the inane and fact-proof Larry Gross. You wish to move the goalposts and redefine the way that the economy has been measured historically? Fine. Go fetch yourself an education (although I surmise that you are ineducable and you are certainly innumerate) and publish some peer-reviewed research that convinces everyone else to adopt your retarded ideas. Good luck with that, you moron.
- LarryG
more name calling from the intellectual elite here on AEI, eh?
if doing budgets by GDP worked so well, how come we are now 16 trillion in debt and STILL talking about spending as a percent of GDP?
Again – how many companies budget according to their productivity? How about zero?
- Michael P Stein
There's another aspect to a BBA that seldom if ever gets talked about. If the budget is balanced in good years – i.e., there is no meaningful surplus – then a recession guarantees that there will either be a deficit or spending cuts. To avoid that, reasonable surpluses need to be baked into the budget in good years (as orthodox Keynesians would agree should be done in order to balance the deficit spending used to prop up demand in a recession). Under Clinton, we were actually doing it.
Just as Democrats are continually tempted to spend all available money and then some, Republicans seem continually tempted to cut taxes to eliminate any available surplus – and then some. In order to make a BBA work, not only do Democrats need to resist the urge to spend all money available, but Republicans need to resist the urge to cut taxes to refund all surpluses available in good years. Otherwise, we'll see the same fighting over what to do the first time a recession hits.
This also makes me wonder that if we do adopt some sort of budgeting amendment, perhaps the best target would be on the range of percentage of total debt to GDP – the longer term trend – rather than a single year's revenue and/or spending to GDP. If the total debt to GDP ratio is acceptably low, the BBA would not kick in immediately. (Granted, we're not going to get there any time soon.)
- LarryG
agree… but how about this.
In good years of surplus – everyone gets their share back on the tax refunds…
with the understanding that it's understood in bad years, they get extra taxes to pay?
but you are right about the GOP – the cut taxes then when revenues fall short -we get a deficit and the GOP then refuses to raise taxes to make it up and insists that we cut spending even further..
- marmico
Not only does the fiscal math not work, Marron posits that there is a major drafting error.
- LarryG
the GOP is simply not serious. They seem to want to talk bout anything and everything except the actual dollars available for spending.
- Paul
"the GOP is simply not serious. "
Your hero Obama proposed 29 new government programs in his SOTU on Tuesday. He's run up more debt in 4 yrs than Bush ran up in 8. He spent much of last yr pimping for another half trillion in failed "stimulus" spending. Also, contrary to your repeated assurances, he is fighting the sequester cuts.
But it's the GOP who isn't serious. You're a pathetic partisan hack, Larry.
- LarryG
re: Obama's spending. The POTUS cannot authorize spending – only Congress can.
re: spending as a percent of GDP… do you mean regardless of what your actual available revenues are?
why would you establish a budget based on GDP rather than your actual revenues? what sense does that make?
- Paul
I can't tell here whether Larry's stupidity or dishonesty is at work here. Perhaps it's a mixture of both.
How's Obama's rock-solid support of the sequester coming along, Larry?
- LarryG
What the POTUS can do:
1. – he/she can advocate for spending or for cuts
2. – he/she can ask a member of Congress to sponsor a bill
What the POTUS cannot do:
1. – he/she cannot spend a thin dime unless approved by a majority of both houses of Congress.
ALL the spending that has occurred since Obama became POTUS – WAS APPROVED by a MAJORITY of of Congress.
here read it:
- Paul
Even you don't believe your own bullshit, Larry. Why did Boehner bother to negotiate with Obama if he's merely a chair warmer who signs the checks? Why were you bragging about how Obama kicked the GOP's ass in the fiscal cliff standoff if he's so powerless?
Your dishonesty is repulsive. It's all about who will guarantee your monthly checks, ain't it?
- LarryG
" Even you don't believe your own bullshit, Larry. Why did Boehner bother to negotiate with Obama if he's merely a chair warmer who signs the checks? Why were you bragging about how Obama kicked the GOP's ass in the fiscal cliff standoff if he's so powerless?"
don't know that I bragged. What I probably said was that it was dumb for the GOP to engage in the fiscal cliff tactics because ultimately Obama does not do the budget, the Congress does and about all Obama can do is sign or veto whatever Congress sends to him.
It is ludicrous for the GOP to say that it's up to Obama to make the cuts because most of the current budget came from the Congress before Obama was elected (with the exception of the stimulus).
So the GOP doubled the National Defense spending and added the Medicare Part D subsidy then cut taxes and a deficit resulted – and the deficit exploded when the economy tanked and tax revenues plummeted – and still have not recovered.
so the GOP says we have a "spending" problem and we need cuts – but the GOP refuses to name the cuts and insists that Obama name them.
Now how dumb is that? If the GOP thinks we need cuts, do they have the backbone to say what cuts need to be done? If they had any backbone at all… they'd stand by the principles and tell it like it is.
Instead back in Sept 2012… they folded like a deck of cheap cards and voted to continue spending via the CR.
And if that wasn't bad enough, they threatened to not extend the debt – which was pre-ordained when they voted in favor of the CR in Sept.
"Your dishonesty is repulsive. It's all about who will guarantee your monthly checks, ain't it?"
My checks come no matter who is POTUS – and courtesy of the GOPs massive defense spending…so thank the GOP Paul. They just love spending money as long as it is for DOD.
Yeah, it's hard to balance the budget. So I guess we may as well embrace our debt-laden doom instead.
just keep the deficits at the level that reagan did:
- marmico
That should be easy enough. Reagan average spending at 22.4% and revenues at 18.2% of GDP. But the debt to GDP level would still rise. It would be helpful if the price of oil dropped in half and stabilized at that level. Can't Saudi America reduce the price of oil?
- LarryG
If GDP actually tracked, or could predict with some accuracy – the anticipated tax revenues, perhaps it would be an acceptable ADDITIONAL method for budgeting.
I've never seen a chart that shows tax revenues vs a percent of GDP but I'm sure such charts exist but WHY do we continue to use this as a primary metric?
Individuals don't do it. States don't do it. Businesses don't do it. Localities don't do it.
so why do we do this ?
it seems to be a guaranteed way to ensure budget disasters ESPECIALLY when taxes are cut and available revenues plummet even as the economy is supposedly benefiting?
It seems even a dumber way to underlie baseline balanced budget processes.
No business would dare plan their short-term much less their long-term business plans solely on their productivity without also paying strict attention to their net revenues.
How can the folks who say they want a balanced budget act be considered serious when their only "plan" to operate the budget is via a percent of GDP?
this is totally bizarre and virtually invites fiscal disaster.
it's like the idea is to actually drive the car by disconnecting the steering wheel from the tires.
Until the balanced budget folks actually produce a serious plan – this is just more sound-bite kabuki theater.
The Senate RINOs and Rubio, a new neocon drone, will do nothing but what they do best, be sheepish.
Once I thought a "haircut" was only for European countries.
It looks like it will soon cross the pond.
Another downgrade or two and… panic.
Just remember that good ol' OLY mentioned this back when, unless:
1. The US goes back to 2008 base budget
2. Reduce by 5% per year the next 10 budgets
3. Pass and implement a 15% flat tax
4. Set a 2 year moratorium (freeze) on ALL "benefits"
5. Dismantle immediately the FED, EPA and DOE for starts
Ok, now start looking towards the west to see the sun rise…
America, as we knew it, is FINISHED!
The compassionate looters are now way more than the working Americans.
- LarryG
I would assert that as long as you don't deal with real numbers – for available revenues and continue to frame the discussion as spending as a percent of GDP and vague, non-specific numbers with respect to actual categorical spending for entitlements and DOD/National Defense that we simple are not serious about the issue.
you cannot reach a balanced budget by arguing percent of GDP.
At some point – you have to deal with real numbers.
- Paul
"you cannot reach a balanced budget by arguing percent of GDP."
WTF are you talking about? Limiting spending to 18% of GDP is about the historical average for revenues, and would be a damn sight better proposal than anything your boyfriend Obama has ever offered up.
- LarryG
perhaps an even better question – how would you decide how much to spend and how much to cut by looking at GDP?
how do you decide spending when the GDP number is not a firm one especially with respect to your actual tax revenues?
that's why I do not understand.
how can you budget using something other than actual revenues?
seems like a recipe for fiscal disaster.
oh wait…….
- Paul
What's your boyfriend's counter-proposal?
Oh that's right, more ruinous spending.
- Owen K.
It is probably true that the U.S. is headed for default, and/or a currency crisis of some kind. It could come as financial repression policies such a capital controls are kicked in by Washington. However, as long as the dollar remains the world reserve currency, there probably will not be a wholesale collapse of the dollar, as it is measured against other global fiat currencies. At some point, there will be some type of default. As to when it will come, or how it will come, no one knows. Any attempts by Congress to get this under control won't happen as long as the Dems control the Senate and Obama is still in office. This will get us closer to the event horizon so to speak. Any way we look at this, it won't be pretty.

Question from porkchopxxx
Need help completeing tower challenge #79?
i cant get a combo better then Jade to defeat her?
5 years ago
u HAVE to get a combo.
5 years ago
Accepted Answer
I had a couple problems here too till I realized if you just throw her fans over and over as fast as you can (use the EXs when available) you'll win each round.
5 years ago
you don't need to get a higher combo, just do more damage then Jade did, what I did was just spam Kitana's fan toss special :)
5 years ago
Xxx dash forward xxx dash forward xxx.
5 years ago
Try to get as close to her as possible and as quickly as possible by dashing, find a simple combo she can do like square, square, square or along those lines, try to hit her twice with the combo which may give you a 5 or so combo depending if you hit her when she was in mid air or whatever, but the is a pause after you do the combo allowing you to get in a sneaky uppercut or a grab and even if you dont or cant get a long combo, just make sure you end with a grab or an uppercut. you are not looking to defeat her, just take off more health than she takes of you.
5 years ago
Quick 3 hit combo followed by an uppercut and i beat her every time.
5 years ago
If Jade does a 3 hit combo OR 3 seperate hits, its up to you to score more or even damage with 3 hits, and it DOES NOT have to be a combo, so just uppercut her til she drops.

Product Description
Particles in Motion 5
Particles in Motion 5 teaches you how to use Motion's built in particle system; a system that is not only intuitive, but can be used to create just about anything you can imagine. Particle Systems are used in motion graphics, visual effects and gaming environments to simulate smoke, fire, snow, explosions, dust and fog. Particle systems are also used in abstract ways to create effects like glowing trails and magic pixie dust (think Tinker Bell). Used in conjunction with Behaviors, particles can be made to obey (or break) all the laws of physics with just a few mouse clicks. Motion comes with many built in particle presets, but as you'll learn in this tutorial, Motion's interface makes it easy to develop custom particle effects.
Each lesson focuses on building fundamental skills for generating, modifying and animating Particle Emitters to create amazing visual effects and motion graphics. As you work through the lessons, you'll create 7 different projects – each focusing on building different skill sets. You'll learn how to modify preset particle emitters, create emitters from scratch; animate particles using keyframes and behaviors, attach particles to text; track particle emitters to video and work with particles in 3D space!
Who is this Tutorial for?
Particles in Motion 5 was designed for users who are already fluent in either Motion 4 or 5. As an intermediate level tutorial, it assumes you are comfortable with Motion's user interface and the basic process of compositing and animating in Motion. This tutorial focuses on generating and animating particle systems in Motion 5. Users who are new to Motion 5 should purchase Getting Started in Motion 5 before working through this tutorial.
Particles in Motion 5 is presented in 7 individual lessons with a running time of just under 2 hours. The tutorial includes project and media files for following along in Motion 5.

these only last about 2 years under light use Seems like the should last longer I have replaced 6 burners in 5 years of owning this BBQ
6th Mar 2014 Unknown
Good replacement burners for my OCS grill. I wish the steel was a bit heavier gauge as the last set of four only lasted about 2 years before burning out although to be fair, I do a lot of grilling. Anyway, they are still pretty good with easy installation and even flame distribution.

"I am so proud of my sisters, but I'll be married before I have a baby," people.com quoted Rob as saying.
Kim, 32, is currently dating rapper Kanye West, while Kourtney, who is mom to Mason, 3, and Penelope, 6 months, is not married to her children's father, Scott Disick.
When asked about an impending proposal from Kanye West to Kim, he said: "I think everyone is just excited about and focused on the baby right now. Kim and Kanye are over the moon happy. I am so excited to be an uncle again."

It's Crunch Time
…on so many levels.
1. Tomorrow begins my 5 days of finals. I'm beginning to think these next five days are actually going to be better than the past five days because at least I'm actually taking the tests and crossing them off one by one! Lucky for me, the tests go in order from hardest to easier (notice: I never say easy), so I get the painful two (Operations Management and Marketing Research) over first! I'm thankful for that.
2. It's also crunch time because as of today there is officially two months until my sisters wedding! In these two months I need to write my speech, finish the centerpieces, finalize the Bachelorette party, figure out what I want to do with my hair and feel good in my dress. Oh, and most importantly, keep Kelly calm : )
I don't really know anything about being maid-of-honor. I've only been to one wedding (that I really remember) and I barely new the couple, so I wasn't very involved haha. I was reading up on my responsibilities online and one site said I was supposed to "make sure the bride doesn't drink too much". Ha! If that's my hardest job this is going to be a piece of cake (yum, cake).
3. Last night, I packed up the majority of my room (clearly wishful thinking), now I'm ready for someone to come pick me up! Oh, I still have to take all my finals? Oh.. shit..
4. I officially have less than THREE weeks until the half-marathon! Where did the time go!? I'm ready. I know I am. But I'm still not COMPLETELY sure I'm running it haha. How does that makes sense if I'm ready? Well I know I'm ready and I know the majority of my body is ready. I'm just still being cautious with my leg. But if yesterday's seven miler was any indication, I'd say the half-marathon is looking good!
I was reading up about tapering for a half-marathon, and the results were mixed. It seemed like the general consensus was that if you are using this as a training run, then there is no need to taper. But if you're hoping to peak performance during the race than a taper is recommended (of somewhere between one to two weeks). I would like to do the later (obviously..), but now that my training has been all messed up from injury I feel like the past month has been a taper haha. I was planning on slowing it down for the last week before it, and still am, but I don't think I want to slow down before that because of all the time I've had to take off. Thoughts on this?
Have you ever run a half-marathon? Were you running for training/fun or for performance? Did you taper? If so, how much/long?
May 10, 2010 2:10 PM
good luck with your finals!!
i wrote my speech at my sister's wedding in my head as i was saying it aloud!! not the best idea but just remember that everyone there is your family and friends so it will be fine!!
if i am running a half marathon as part of training i do not taper and usually i will do a nice long cool down to get in the extra miles (if needed) and to prevent any soreness.
good luck with all things!
May 10, 2010 3:25 PM
Personally, I've never run a half-marathon before. But when I was training for a 10k, I tapered a good few days beforehand and my legs felt so fresh and ready for the race. I'm pretty sure that the longer the race, the longer you need to taper, but I could be totally wrong on this.
Sorry…I'm not being helpful at all. ;)
It sounds like you're well prepared for the half so far though…you'll do great! :D
May 12, 2010 6:22 AM
I usually taper for a week leading up to a 1/2. I know some people taper for longer.
May 15, 2010 9:46 AM
You've got so many fun events coming up!! Good for you. And yes, the sister's wedding is stressful, but boy will it be a GREAT time! haha, I always tell Nick that he has to make sure I don't drink too much when we get married…she's lucky she has you to help her out :)
I'm not a big runner so I've never done any big running events. I can't help :( Either way, you're going to do GREAT!
Have a fabulous weekend.

Cysts may form within any tissue in the body. Most cysts in the lungs are filled with air. Cysts that form in the lymph system or kidneys are fluid-filled. Certain parasites, such as some types of roundworms and tapeworms, can form cysts within the muscles, liver, brain, lungs, and eyes.
Cysts are common on the skin. They can develop when acne causes a sebaceous gland to clog, or they can form around something that is stuck in the skin. These cysts are not cancer (benign) but can cause pain and changes in appearance.
Cysts can be drained or removed with surgery, depending on their type and location.
A pilonidal dimple is a type of cyst.

Equal Opportunity at IUPUI
Mission Statement
Kim D. Kirkland, Ed.D., Director
IUPUI's Office of Equal Opportunity is committed to promoting a working and learning environment free of discrimination on the basis of race, color, religion, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, age, disability, or veteran status. To this end, OEO is responsible for ensuring the University's compliance with all federal and state nondiscrimination requirements and serves as IUPUI's official liaison with governmental civil rights enforcement agencies. Our director reports to the Chancellor and is responsible for the development and execution of the University's Affirmative Action program. In addition, the office provides leadership and support toward developing a comprehensive and institution-wide approach to achieving and sustaining a diverse and pluralistic community of students, faculty and staff.

IUPUI Civility Statement
The IUPUI community has dedicated itself to creating an environment where each individual is valued and can succeed. Our institutional ethic compels us to foster the best possible environment for doing our work as educators, learners, and supporters of the educational process. When our members are prevented from doing their best, the entire community is diminished.
Our commitment to be a diverse and inclusive campus relies on all community members to do their part. While no set of rules or policies can wholly govern human conduct, civility requires respect and a thoughtful and careful balancing of differing points of view.
As members of an institution of higher learning, we must periodically reaffirm the fundamental ethics and values that form the framework for our university. This means fostering a climate of acceptance, mutual respect, academic freedom, and civil discourse. Civil discourse is a form of dialogue that acknowledges and gives voice to one another's ideas, experiences, and beliefs.
Civility and respect should be extended to all persons regardless of their role, status, or social identity. We encourage everyone to speak and act thoughtfully and judiciously and with respect for one another. We may not always agree with one another, but when we disagree, we are called to respond with civility.

@-chair is an armchair for our time, perfectly adapted for a diversity and multiplicity of uses, its highly contemporary design completely in line with the habitual style of Toshiyuki Kita. The armchair is primarily designed for working at a computer for long periods in a comfortable position: particular significance has been given to the fact that quality of posture has a great influence on a person's general wellbeing. It was in this spirit that the @-servant, an occasional table surface on castors, was also developed : this slides perfectly to the side to create a perfectly adapted work surface.
The reclining backrest is controlled by an aluminum button located on the side of the armrest.
Given the quality and elegance of its design and the possibilities for use which it offers, @-chair will be just as perfectly at home in a sitting room as a complement to a settee, as it will in a bedroom or office.
Metal structure clad in high resilience polyurethane injected foam (50 kg/m³ - 5.0 kPa). Cable and jack mechanism. Choice of bases: Epoxy lacquered metal (choice of colors) or stained solid beech (choice of colors).
Reclining back - continuous adjustment via button on side of armchair armrest.
When the back is fully reclined the depth increases from 33'' - 84 cm to 47 1/4'' - 120 cm.
Fully upholstered, with fully removable covers.

Amgen-Immunex Deal Rumored
(AMGN - Get Report) is reportedly pursuing a deal to acquire Immunex (IMNX) for as much as $18 billion in cash and stock, according to media reports.Amgen
Talk of a deal between the two biotech firms hit Wall Street early Thursday morning, driving shares of Immunex up about 10%. The rumors were then given more credence by a later
CNBC report that says the companies are in advanced merger talks. Amgen is reportedly offering to buy Immunex for a price in the low $30 range. One possible snag:
American Home Products
(AHP - Get Report) owns 41% of Immunex and if reports are correct, may have marketing rights to future drugs.
Shares of Immunex jumped $3.04, or 12%, to $27.49 a share in recent trading. Amgen is off $2.75, or 4%, to $61.65. The deal, if consummated, is risky for Amgen because it would be dilutive to earnings over the next few years, which would force it to restate current growth estimates. The big attraction at Immunex is its rheumatoid arthritis drug, Enbrel, which is expected to rack up 2001 sales of about $750 million. But Enbrel sales growth has been constrained by a lack of the drug's supply, and there is significant competition on the horizon from rival drugs. Immunex also has a weak late-stage drug pipeline. On the positive side, Amgen recently received Food and Drug Administration approval for its own rheumatoid arthritis drug, dubbed Kineret. The company might be betting that it can create significant efficiencies by bringing the two drugs under the same roof. Neither company is commenting on the merger rumors.

Being a 13 year old boy without a lot of money, being able to "build" my first PC is like learning to ride a bike for the very first time. My dad's PC finally gave out and the mobo died. I was really scared because the first time I tried to switch the motherboard, I broke the leg of an LGA775 Heatsink and decided I never want to do it again but since this happened I decided to try it out one last time and with proper guidance I got it up and running. I was expecting to just replace the mobo but I had to do more than that. I had to go through stores looking for a PSU then looking for RAM then looking for SATA Cables and it felt AMAZING! Its like your shopaholic wife on a shopping spree with $1000 dollars on a credit card and 50% off written all over the shelves. So long story short I bought new stuff and replaced everything except for the RAM, Processor, Case and the mobo. Now that its 99% complete (need to pick up some thermal paste) I decided that that PC will be running Mint 13 LTS.
Here's the specs of the PC:
Asus P5PE-VM Rev 1.03
Intel Pentium D 925 3 GHz
1.5 GB of DDR RAM
40GB of IDE HDD
Intel 865G Chipset
LG Flatron

Introducing Photo Collage Creator
I was playing with bitmap manipulations and so was born the idea to make this app. It was started some time ago, and, even if at times I was thinking it will never see the daylight, finally it was released!
Description of the app:
Photo Collage Creator is a simple app that lets you create beautiful collages within seconds and share them with your family, friends or colleagues. To create a collage you just need to select the photos, apply the frames, save, and you are done!
– Create collages composed from up to 5 photos
– Various frames to create a collage
– Shuffle the photos within the collage
– Save your collages
– Share collages on gmail, facebook, picasa, and other social networking sites.
Hope you will like it!
