Upcoming Closures
The northbound exit ramp to Valley View Lane will temporarily close to traffic in early 2016 for approximately three months as crews reconstruct the ramp.
The northbound exit ramp to Belt Line Road is expected to temporarily close to traffic in early 2016. This closure is needed to work on the northbound side of I-35E. The closure will last approximately ten months. Motorists will use the Crosby Road exit to access Belt Line Road.
North and southbound I-35E mainlane traffic over Belt Line Road is expected to shift onto the new structure in early 2016. Once the shift is made, crews will focus efforts on demolishing the existing northbound mainlane bridge.
Additional Updates:
Check out the new 35Express Project animation here!
The 35Express project will reconstruct the intersection at Belt Line Road and I-35E. Once complete, Belt Line Road will be elevated to the current height of I-35E and I-35E will be raised approximately 25 feet higher than its current elevation. Construction in this area is expected to last through mid-2017.
This work is related to the 35Express project, an expansion of I-35E between U.S. Highway 380 in Denton County and I-635 in Dallas County. All closures are subject to weather conditions and may be postponed, if necessary.

(Sports Network) - The Oklahoma City Thunder finish a quick, two-game road
trip east on Saturday night when they hit the Wells Fargo Center for a game
with the Philadelphia 76ers.
The Thunder will try to get back into the win column after a 108-100 loss
Friday night in Boston to the Celtics. Oklahoma City trailed by 12, but a 9-0
run got them within three at 101-98.
Kevin Durant, who led the Thunder with 29 points, missed a game-tying 3-
pointer with 1:14 remaining.
Russell Westbrook had 26 points, eight assists and seven rebounds and Serge
Ibaka posted a double-double with 17 points and 13 boards.
"We played hard," Durant said. "In that fourth we had some tough breaks, tough
misses, but we fought. The best thing about this league is we have a game
tomorrow. We just have to move past it and get ready for tomorrow."
This is the fourth time this season Oklahoma City has played back-to-back
nights. The Thunder, the reigning Western Conference champion, are 3-0 in the
second game of the back-to-backs.
The Thunder, who start a three-game homestand after Saturday's game, are
second to the Miami Heat in scoring and have netted over 100 points in four
The Sixers have been off since Wednesday night when they lost to the Cavs,
92-83 in Cleveland. With Kyrie Irving out and Philly beating Cleveland on
Sunday, the Sixers surprisingly got trounced, highlighted by the Jeremy Pargo
Filling in for the injured Irving, Pargo had a career-high 28 points. No Sixer
scored more than 16 and Philadelphia had a three-game winning streak snapped,
as well as a three-game road winning streak.
"I knew about him (Pargo). I watched him in college (at Gonzaga), he can
play," said Jrue Holiday, one of two Sixers with 16 on Wednesday. "Obviously,
he was going to come out with a lot of energy and he came out hitting a lot of
shots and he was really good."
The 76ers, who are without Andrew Bynum for the foreseeable future, are the
NBA's best defense in terms of opponents' scoring. Problem is, Philly ranks
third from the bottom in scoring.
The Sixers, who have won three straight in the City of Brotherly Love, have
cracked the century mark just twice, but have allowed over 100 points four
times. The last time a team scored 100-plus against Philadelphia was on Nov.
12 when the Milwaukee Bucks were able to do it.
The Thunder have won the last six meetings, including three in Philadelphia,
but the 76ers won the five matchups before that.

text: We are running ZCS 8.0 on Ubuntu 12.04. Does anyone know if there is a way to standardized the "From" field on all sent message to the name that corresponds to the senders account in Zimbra. For example, if I have John Smith with an email address john.smith@this domain, when he sends from the web client his messages show up as John Smith in the from Field on the user's inbox he sends to. If he had an Android phone and decides to call himself "PoopyPants" as the display name in the phone mail client mail config it will show "PoopyPants" in the from field in the receiver's inbox. Some devices display the From field as john.smith with no options to configure otherwise. I guess what I am saying is that I would like to be able to standardize the From field somehow on the Zimbra server instead of letting each device dictate what is displayed.

California state Sen. Kevin de León was raised by an aunt who worked hard cleaning homes for decades. Although her job provided an income for de León's family, it didn't have a 401(k) or any other savings plan to put a little bit aside for her own retirement.
De León says his 76-year-old aunt needs to keep working because she hasn't accumulated any real savings for retirement.
"This woman put food on our table and to think she is one of millions of people like her who can't retire with a modicum of dignity is unfathomable," says de León, a Democrat whose Los Angeles-area district includes Alhambra, Maywood and South Pasadena. "People like my aunt are retiring not because they want to, but because they can no longer work. They are relying on public assistance, and that's not the way hard-working people want to retire."
Earlier this year, de León introduced a bill that would create a state-administered retirement savings program for certain private-sector workers whose employers don't offer a 401(k) or defined benefit pension plan. Although many details need to be worked out, the bill was signed into law by Gov. Jerry Brown in September.
Businesses with no company retirement savings plan will need to redirect 3 percent of employee pay into the state-run account. The law is expected to help the 6.3 million Californians with no retirement plan at their workplace.
The issue isn't new, but with the Bureau of Labor Statistics showing that 45 percent of America's workforce doesn't have access to a retirement plan, many state legislators are looking to sponsor state-based retirement plans for private or nongovernment workers.
"We are looking at California as a model that can be spread to other states," says Karen Friedman, executive vice president of the Pension Rights Center in Washington. "We need to take steps to help workers increase retirement savings."
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics' September report, Beyond the Numbers: Pay and Benefits, also shows that more than 60 percent of low-wage workers don't have access to a company-run retirement account, compared with 15 percent of high-wage workers. Experts are skeptical that low-wage earners would save on their own with an Individual Retirement Account, given that only 17 percent of these earners who have a plan participate in it, the statistics figures show.
"I think retirement-savings issues are going to be a critical part of the 2013 legislative session," says Sujit CanagaRetna, senior fiscal analyst in the Council of State Governments' Atlanta office. "People will be increasingly reliant on state and local governments to take care of them, and they will become an extra financial burden at a time when states are facing their own fiscal challenges."
Since 2006, more than a dozen states have considered studying the issue or have introduced bills to create some type of retirement savings plan, according to an October update on the issue by the National Conference of State Legislatures.
Massachusetts passed a law in March offering small not-for-profit organizations the ability to join a retirement savings plan run by the state. Connecticut, Illinois and West Virginia were active in 2012 with bills in committees or had plans to study the concept.
The Pension Rights Center co-sponsored a forum on state-based retirement plans for private workers in September. Officials from California, New York, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island attended, Ferguson says.
"There is widespread interest," she says. "States want to do something because the truth is, 50 percent of our workforce has been without access to retirement plans for years. We've done a lot to create tax incentives, but people without access aren't saving."
Critics say the plan will add to the financial stress states are facing and that a 3 percent contribution isn't enough to truly help workers save for retirement. Jack Dolan, vice president of media relations for the American Council of Life Insurers, says promoters of the idea are well-intended, but legislators should in offering retirement savings plans focus more on eliminating the obstacles small businesses are already facing.
"Is there room for improvement? You bet," Dolan says. "But these types of bills are not going to help fix our retirement crisis. Many people do have a savings shortfall, but this idea doesn't address the issue."
The Washington-based life insurance interest group supports a bill sponsored by Rep. Ron Kind, D-Wisconsin, that would increase tax-credit incentives for small businesses to set up certain defined contribution plans.
Friedman says ideas on the federal level have stalled, and states are interested in helping workers save.
"Somebody somewhere has to do something," she says. "The fact that California took this step is a great thing, and we are hoping it encourages other states to do the same."

The night before I left Kandy for the central hill country, we dined with a group of expats who had decided to make Sri Lanka their home some years ago. It was interesting to compare notes and what came across loud and clear was the sense of freedom that they all felt living in a country where anything is possible.
A former airline executive told me that the gentle chaos, lack of CCTV, Big Brother mentality and onerous health & safety legislation made a refreshing change from the UK and indeed most of Europe. All enthused about the cheap cost of living and the fact that as an island Sri Lanka offered a great variety of landscape.
I kept this in mind as we headed up the next day to Nuwara Eliya in the tea country whose rainy status could rival that of the UK. In the two days… Read more

WHEELING - Injuries are an inevitable part of the game of football.
It's also inevitable that teams are going to see stars go down before the season ends.
Both Wheeling Park and Wheeling Central, two teams with legitimate playoff aspirations, each suffered bad injuries to big-time players Friday.
Both are seniors, meaning they might have played their last game, at least in high school.
Both injuries came in losses, which only heightened the severity of losing key parts of their programs as the season turns toward the postseason stretch.
Both had been down t his path before, which makes it worse.
Central saw quarterback/running back Parker Henry go down with a knee injury in a 34-7 loss against Shadyside.
At the same time, down in Morgantown, Wheeling Park's Bryce Ingram, while blocking on a run play in what ended up a 41-38 Morgantown win in overtime, suffered an ankle injury that is putting his senior season in jeopardy.
Henry, who missed his entire junior season with a torn ACL, suffered a tear in his other knee. Central also will be without all-stater C.J. Burch, lost to a hand injury and will miss at least two weeks.
Henry will have an MRI today to determine the extent of the injury.
"When it can go wrong, it can go wrong," Central coach Mike Young said Monday evening. "It's really terrible. (Henry) is a good kid, he worked hard to get back. We aren't shutting the door. We'll learn a lot more today. He's in our thoughts and our prayers."
The same can be said of Ingram, who missed the first three weeks of the season with a back injury suffered in the summer. He talked about how thankful he was to be back after rushing for over 100 yards in his second game against Brooke.
Wheeling Central is idle this week. Park hosts Elkins homecoming.

Competition is in the air as the 2012 Summer Olympics have officially kicked off. This year, over 200 countries will compete in 300 events including swimming, basketball, gymnastics and tennis. But at AARP Driver Safety, we can't help but wonder: what if safe driving was an Olympic sport-which country would take home the gold medal? Which countries have the safest drivers, roads, and why?
According to the World Health Organization, the Marshall Islands have the safest roads by far. In 2007, there were only 1.7 road traffic deaths per 100,000 people. Second and third place go to Malta and Uruguay, with respective rates 3.4 and 4.3.
Here's a list of the top 10 countries with the safest roads, according to their road fatality rate per 100,000 people:
- Marshall Islands: 1.7
- Malta: 3.4
- Uruguay: 4.3
- Netherlands: 4.8
- Singapore: 4.8
- Switzerland: 4.9
- Japan: 5
- Norway: 5
- Sweden: 5.2
- United Kingdom: 5.4
While the U.S. is a strong competitor in the Olympic Games, it turns out that we wouldn't get very far in the "safe driving" event. Among the 178 countries listed, the U.S. is ranked 66, with an average of 13.9 road fatalities per 100,000 people a year.
What makes their roads so much safer than ours?
Income level plays an important role in driver safety. Over 90% of the deaths on the roads occur in low-income and middle-income countries, which have only 48% of the world's registered vehicles (WHO). But income isn't the only factor.
Having compared the U.S. to several countries with a lower traffic fatality rate, here are three key contributors that could easily be changed.
- Alcohol: 1/3 of road fatalities in the U.S. are attributed to alcohol, compared to half of that in Switzerland and a quarter of that in Japan. Always remember that your driving is affected with your first drink, and have a designated driver-or plan to use public transportation-at all times.
- Seat belts: In the U.S., only 82% of people wear their seat belts in the front seat, and 76% in the back. In Sweden, that rate is 96% and 90%, respectively. Buckling your seat-belt is a simple, effortless measure that will keep you safe. Even if you're driving a short distance and slowly-most crashes occur when traveling below 40 mph-you can still experience a fatal impact if you are unbelted.
- Child restraint laws: Less than half of all countries have laws requiring the use of child restraints, even though they can reduce deaths of children by between 54% and 80% (WHO). In the U.S., the law varies from state to state, but many are unspecific and insufficient. It is seldom required that children under the age of one be placed in rear-facing seats. WHO recommends the child remain in restraints until the age of 12, but many states such as Florida and Arizona only require it until the age of 4 or 5.
While cars and roads are constantly evolving to become safer for drivers and pedestrians, remember that the most important safety feature is a safe driver. You can refresh your driving skills by taking the AARP Driver Safety course, available in a classroom or online.
Can you think of any other important factors that may contribute to certain countries having safer roads? Have you driven in other countries, and if so, what have you noticed?

Today, at 2 p.m. (EST), the U.S. House Subcommittee on Environment, chaired by Rep. Andy Harris (R-Md.), will hold a hearing on "Mid-Level Ethanol Blends: Consumer and Technical Research Needs." Former U.S. Sen. Wayne Allard, American Motorcyclist Association vice president for government relations, will be a witness at the hearing.
The AMA focus will be on the need for an independent and scientific study of the use of E15 -- a gasoline formulation that contains up to 15 percent ethanol by volume -- in motorcycle and all-terrain vehicle engines. Additionally, we will raise concerns of misfueling and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's mitigation plan, which initially included a senseless mandated four-gallon minimum fuel purchase.

When it comes to looking at rats, most New Yorkers are content with what they see while absent-mindedly watching the subway tracks as they wait for their train. But for some, that amount of rodent-ogling is apparently not enough, and that's why they created the Fancy Rat Convention.
The day-long event took place at 320 studios in New York City over the weekend. According to the meet-up page, it was a celebration of National Pet Awareness month, and was a way for folks to get to know "one of the most misunderstood pets around." It included a rat fashion show, as well as toys and treats for the little furry guys.
I mean, a rat might not be my first choice of pet, but I have to admit that the rat in the picture on the meet-up page is pretty adorable. Still, some animals don't lend themselves to playing dress-up. I've been known to try to dress my dog up, for instance, and she was not fucking having it. She chewed at a vest until I took it off, and another time she pawed her own Halloween costume straight off her head. Unbelievable. Here are a few more animals that you shouldn't try to dress up:

Tallahassee, FL-One local city is making the grade as one of the 'top college towns' in the country.
Tallahassee made the American Institute for Economic Research's list of 75 best colleges towns in 2012-2013.
The city came in 10th among 'small metro areas.'
The study considered several factors when evaluating those cities including academics, culture and quality of life.
"I think it's a good college town for students because I'm an out-of-state student and the friends that I have made here have come from different cities and states. I feel like a lot of the students can connect with the student that attend the other universities in Tallahassee," said Bria Bennett, a student at FAMU.
Gainesville finished 4th in that category. Ann Arbor, Michigan; Madison, Wisconsin; and Boulder, Colorado round out the top-three.

ATLANTA -- Officials with the Georgia Department of Public Health said Tuesday that a 66-year-old Macon woman has the state's first confirmed case of fungal meningitis in the state.
She is being treated by an infectious disease physician, but has not been hospitalized, according a release.
The release said she had received an injection of tainted medication from the New England Compounding Center while being treated for back pain at the Forsyth Street Ambulatory Surgery Center in Macon.
She had received an injection of preservative-free methylprednisolone acetate.
At least two other drugs from NECC are being investigated by the FDA -- a drug used in eye surgery and a drug that is used to paralyze the heart during heart transplant surgery.
Officials said there were no positive links between those drugs and the fungal meningitis outbreak. But out an abundance of caution, the FDA says they are telling doctors to follow up with patients who received any injectable product from NECC shipped after May 21, 2012.

The St. Joe Community Foundation is donating $600,000 to FSU's Panama City branch campus.
A half million dollars of that will be for scholarships; $250,000 of the scholarship money will be a challenge grant, in which St. Joe challenges other local business to make donations for scholarships.
St. Joe will match those donations, up to another $250,000 over the next five years. The remaining $100,000 is to equip the school's lecture hall.
The St. Joe Community Foundation President, William Britton Greene, says it's all about investing in the community. With state matching grants, the total gift could exceed $1.3 million.

State economist Darrin Webb says Mississippi probably slipped into recession between April and June, the 2nd quarter of 2012. Because of weak job numbers and other factors, he expects it to remain there in the 3rd quarter, ending this month.
Webb told the Joint Legislative Budget Committee Mississippi's economy continues to struggle because of low levels of education, poor health and a high number of births outside marriage.
The budget committee meets this week to start planning for fiscal 2014, which begins July 1, 2013.
The Department of Revenue is requesting a 43 percent increase in its part of the budget.
Agency head Ed Morgan says that would pay off, because the department would hire workers to collect long-overdue taxes.
Lawmakers expect little budget growth overall.

I'd say it looks darn nice so far.
"Veskar remains one of the wildest and most dangerous realms within the civilized lands of Eriond. Its seas are aswarm with scaled terrors, its hillsides are overrun with Giants, ancient dragons alight from its mountains and a terrible witch-queen lays siege upon the frozen borderlands. Yet perhaps the most deadly adversary is the extreme weather. Despite these trials, a society of sea-faring barbarians has managed to survive along the coastal regions of Veskar."
Hey Guys, been away from mapping for a spell but there's a chance I might be running another campaign in my homebrew campaign world so I thought I'd work on a map of the region we'd be gaming in. Veskar is the northwestern edge of civilization, and its northern borders extend into near arctic conditions.
I decided to go for a photo-realistic style for this map. I used both GIMP and Wilbur, and, as this is my first time using the latter, it took a fair amount of experimenting around with height maps and gradient maps before this WIP met with my satisfaction. Still, there are a few infelicities:
- In coming up with my initial height map, I used the airbrush tool (rather than the paintbrush or dodge/burn tool) to adjust the gray-scale. However, when I zoomed in to 100% I found that the brush made circular patterns throughout the height map.
- As the northern section of this map is located in sub-arctic conditions, I wanted to use a gradient (from white to green) to show the gradual change in biomes. However, the gradient didn't play nice with the gradient map I had already made to indicate elevation.
If anyone has any suggestions for how to remedy either one of these problems I'm all ears. As always, comments and critiques are welcome. Thanks guys.
I'd say it looks darn nice so far.

Thanks SG. OK, got a question for you guys out there. I'm working on forests now and at first I tried using my own forests tut which basically uses cut out cloud patterns for the main clumps of forest and individual trees to fill in the gaps. However, I also tried just creating whole forests out of individual trees (without the cloud patterns). I guess my question is, which style seems most suited to this map? I'm leaning towards just going with the individual tree-forests for this one, but I wanted to get a second opinion before I do so. Thanks.
I think that at this scale you need to deal with clumps of trees rather than individual trees. You'd never see an individual tree. I like the clumps - they look good.
Theory and common sense dictate clumps. But of the two the first one looks more "right" to me because the second one looks like the trees are zoomed in to a regional level (bubbly looking).
If the radiance of a thousand suns was to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...I am become Death, the Shatterer of worlds.
-J. Robert Oppenheimer (father of the atom bomb) alluding to The Bhagavad Gita (Chapter 11, Verse 32)

Go for the clumps arsheesh and btw a very fine start!
I'd go with the first version.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Ascension, I had a similar intuition about the clumps: the scaling just didn't feel right. Of course like Torstan pointed out, you wouldn't be able to see individual trees at the scale I'm using either. While this is certainly true, the individual trees in the first map could just as easily be seen as representing entire groves. In the end I decided to split the difference. I scaled down the clumps somewhat, adding individual trees to the forest borders. I also added a title to the map. Still working on figuring out a way to give the northern section an arctic look. As previously mentioned, I tried adding an arctic themed gradient but it didn't really work well with the gradient map that I am using. I may have an idea about that though. More to come.

Looking good. I'd suggest dialing back the weight of the shadows on the clumps of trees. At the moment they have heavy black shadows comparable to the shadows on your mountains. I'm guessing all the forests aren't also forested mountains?
Hey arsheesh,
Not much to add to the things the others said...but i wanted to compliment you on your Age of Legends link in your sig. I really like the style of the site and the pictures are awesome (can i ask where you got those very athmospheric pics you used for each country entrance?) ... i hope we will see more regional maps (only the first country has any entrances, all the other links go to the campaign map, is that correct?) .
I'm trapped in Darkness,
Still I reach out for the Stars

Community Art Installation Workshop with Margaret Parker
Home » Campus News and Events » November 1st and 2nd, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Please enter a search term to begin your search.
Community Art Installation Workshop is Tuesday and Wednesday, November 1 and 2
HANCOCK, MI -Artist Margaret Parker will conduct a free community art installation workshop Tuesday and Wednesday, November 1st and 2nd, at Finlandia Hall, both days from 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.
Finlandia Hall is the Finlandia University residence hall on Summit Street, Hancock.
The drop-in community workshop will focus on constructing an archway with woven re-purposed t-shirts. The workshop is sponsored by the Finlandia Reflection Gallery and Campus Enrichment Committee.
To make this installation activity possible, t-shirts ... lots of t-shirts ...are needed, in any condition.
T-shirts may be dropped off by November 1 at Finlandia's Jutila Center campus, 200 Michigan St., Hancock, or at Finlandia Hall the first day of the workshop, November 1.
The workshop is presented in conjunction with "Shirts and Skins," an installation by Margaret Parker at the Finlandia Reflection Gallery on display November 2 to November 27, 2011.
An opening reception for Parker will take place at the Reflection Gallery Thursday, November 3, 12:30 to 1:30 p.m. The reception is free and open to the public; refreshments will be served.
Parker's primary installation medium is the t-shirt, which she cuts, then weaves, to create her installation pieces.
Viewer participation is important to Parker's intent. She explains, "Once the viewer sees the piece is made from a T-shirt, they must figure out how it was taken apart. I'm very interested in that spatial reasoning because it pulls the viewer backwards into the creative process, making an image that reverberates in the memory."
The Reflection Gallery is located on the second level of Finlandia's Jutila Center campus, 200 Michigan St., Hancock.

I already run popup blockers and Sophos antivirus software but these do not seem to stop the Zimbra desktop jumping to the advertisement.

WOW! I can feel the heat coming from that brilliant photo.
Those smaller colorful Callas are meek at first, being very shy to grow and bloom. I have seen them disappear for a year or two, then come back like gangbusters and spreading fast.
Unfortunately, I fear the gophers like them too much and seek them out, unlike the big white ones that nothing can kill.

May 24, 2016
Crawfordville, FL-November 21, 2012 - Wakulla County EMS is mourning the loss of one of its own.
Captain Marshall Bradford was killed in a motorcycle crash just before 1 a.m. Wednesday.
The Florida Highway Patrol says Bradford was riding north along U.S. 319 when he went off the road and hit a tree and was killed.
Bradford has been a member of Wakulla County EMS for about 5 years. He was promoted to the rank of caption only two weeks ago.
"He was like a brother to all of us here and he will be missed tremendously. His zest for life reviled no one," says Dylan Jones, who worked with Bradford.
FHP says Bradford was not wearing a helmet at the time of the crash and believes alcohol may have been a factor in the crash.
Crawfordville, FL - Marshall Wallace Bradford, age 35, of Crawfordville was killed in a one-vehicle accident early Wednesday morning.
At 12:40 am Wednesday November 21st, Bradford was driving a 2012 Harley Sportster traveling northbound on US 319. The Sportster traveled onto the east grass shoulder and the left side of the motorcycle struck a tree.
The Sportster came to final rest north of the tree on the east shoulder.
Bradford was fatally injured in this crash and pronounced deceased on scene.
Alcohol was a factor in this accident.
The Florida Highway Patrol was assisted by the Wakulla County Sheriff's Office and Wakulla County Emergency Medical Services.

Antievolution legislation stirring
On December 1, 2004, House Bill 35 was introduced in the Missouri House of Representatives. (Although the legislature is not in session until January 5, 2005, in Missouri it is possible to "prefile" bills and resolutions in order to expedite legislation.) HB 35 would require that:
All biology textbooks sold to the public schools of the state of Missouri shall have one or more chapters containing a critical analysis of origins.
Developments in Dover
Disclaimers in The New York Times
The op-ed page of The New York Times for December 5, 2004, features a chart of "The Descent of Dissent" by Swarthmore biology professor Colin B. Purrington and graphic designer Felix Sockwell. Based on Purrington's web page satirizing textbook evolution disclaimers of the sort used in Alabama and Cobb County, Georgia, the chart entertainingly plots the course of further possible disclaimers.
Not over in Dover
The controversy over the Dover (Pennsylvania) Area School Board's resolution reading "Students will be made aware of gaps/problems in Darwin's Theory and of other theories of evolution including, but not limited to, intelligent design" continues to reverberate. On November 30, 2004, the San Francisco Chronicle carried a lengthy front page story entitled "Anti-evolution teachings gain foothold in U.S. schools," focusing on the situation in Dover. NCSE's executive director Eugenie C.
NCSE's Scott on Fox, CNN
NCSE's executive director Eugenie C. Scott appeared on the "Fair and Balanced" segment of Fox News on November 27, 2004, to discuss "intelligent design" opposite John West of the Discovery Institute's Center for Science and Culture. The segment began with a reference to the decision of the Dover (Pennsylvania) school board to require the teaching of "intelligent design," a subject that West evidently preferred not to discuss.

May 24, 2016
With close to 200 school buses hitting the streets of Leon County next week, there are some rules of the road drivers should be aware of including watching out for those school zones. On Monday morning 175 school buses will hit the road heading for homeroom.
"We don't have a lot of construction on the roads so we expect things to run smoothly," says Foster Rosser.
Besides dodging construction zones, bus drivers will have to keep their eye out for drivers who can't remember the rules of the road.
Here's a quick review of violation fines:
But boarding the bus isn't the only way kids get to roll call. Robert Austin, or as the kids call him, Mr. Bob, has spent the last five years making sure area students get safely to school. Mr. Bob says come Monday morning this road will grow thick with commuters as the hustle and bustle of another school year cranks up.
Fines are doubled when you get caught speeding through a school zone:
Local law enforcement says they will be out in full force watching for drivers who speed through the school zones. School officials say they have plenty of buses this year to handle the route and expect few delays, but they still need more drivers. About 15-20 more are needed to carry the nearly 13,000 kids who rely on the big yellow bus.

First ride: Ultegra Di2 — Better than Dura-Ace Di2?
- By Caley Fretz
- Published Aug. 11, 2011
- Updated Nov. 7, 2011 at 6:25 PM EDT
- The Ultegra Di2 bikes. Photo: Caley Fretz
- Buttons are the same size, shape and placement as always. Photo: Caley Fretz
- Ultegra Di2 gets an extra six micro adjustment points for the rear derailleur for even better fine-tuning. Photo: Caley Fretz
- Ultegra Di2 brifters on PRO bars. Photo: Caley Fretz
- The hoods are a bit narrower, like the old 7800 mechanical hoods, but flatter on top. Photo: Caley Fretz
- Aluminum lever blades instead of carbon add some weight. Photo: Caley Fretz
- The Ultegra Di2 derailleurs are a bit more bulbous. Photo: Caley Fretz
- The larger size is even more noticeable on the front derailleur. Photo: Caley Fretz
- The demo bikes at the World Center of Cycling at the UCI in Aigle, Switzerland. The frames were re-badged Giants.
- The new cables and connectors are smaller, and completely water proof.
- The Ultegra Di2 has the same battery design as the Dura-Ace version. Photo: Caley Fretz
- Hold down the button for two seconds to activate the rear derailleur adjustment mode. Keep holding it to check battery life. Photo: Caley Fretz
- Shift front chainrings mid-sprint, mid-mountain? Sure, why not.
- Tech writers forget the 80 percent rule outside Aigle, Switzerland.
AIGLE, Switzerland (VN) — At nearly half the cost of its elder sibling, the supposedly second-tier Ultegra Di2 group is set to bring push-button electronic shifting to a much wider audience. Manufacturers are pricing Ultegra Di2-equipped bikes around $4,000 and up — not exactly cheap, but nowhere near the $8,000-$12,000 commonly asked for Dura-Ace Di2 models. And the new, cheaper option may actually be even better than its bank robber of an elder brother.
So when Shimano requested our presence in Aigle, Switzerland, home of the UCI, to give the group a good run through, we couldn't refuse. Plus the riding in Switzerland isn't half bad.
The specs
Specifications for the new group have been detailed before. Actually, we got just about everything right in our first article last December. But here's a quick rundown anyway:
Total weight for the full group, including non-electric bits like the cranks and brakes, is 2,482g. That's 80g more than mechanical Ultegra, 263g more than Dura-Ace Di2, 333g more than mechanical Dura-Ace, and 127g lighter than mechanical 105. Price is on par with Dura-Ace mechanical, around $2,500.
Everything is a bit bigger and less sleek. Both derailleurs have chunkier sections that house the motor.
The cables have changed, from a four internal wires to two. This decreased their diameter, and the diameter of the connectors. The cables and connectors are also now completely waterproof, without the sleeves needed for Dura-Ace Di2. Two wiring harnesses are available, one for internal routing and one for external, both in multiple lengths. Dura-Ace Di2 and Ultegra Di2 are not compatible due to the different harnesses, though Dura-Ace Di2 should be getting the new harness type soon if the folks at Shimano are smart, and word is they are.
The new smaller battery used on Dura-Ace Di2 is retained for Ultegra Di2.
Important functions remain the same: front derailleur auto trim, 3000km (1,864 miles) battery life with 5,000 recharges (just try riding that much); identical button placement; same easy on-the-fly adjustment on the cable junction box.
The hoods are now a bit thinner, more like the old 7800 shape but not as tall and with a flatter top.
Now, the good part. We wondered whether the massive drop in price would equate to an equivalent drop in quality.
With a few decent rides in the Swiss Alps and plenty of time tinkering with the stuff, I am confident in saying that, in fact, Ultegra Di2 is better than Dura-Ace Di2. That's right, better. For half the price. Not all that surprising really, since we are talking electronics here and just like my four-year-old iPhone, the latest generation does quite a bit more for less money. But the new group is impressive and exciting, nonetheless.
Despite what Shimano representatives say, the rear shifting on their Di2 systems — both of them — is a bit slower than mechanical options from all three major brands. That's largely because you can't dump gears with one swing of a lever: you need to tap the button for each shift. This is why I still race on SRAM Red: the rear shifting is tighter and crisper than Di2. I can upshift three gears at once, and I can pull the shift paddle into the bars for mid-sprint shifts. I also like the hood shape more. But all of that is just personal preference; I would be perfectly happy on a Di2 group as well.
Shifts with Di2 are always spot on, though, something that can't be said for even the best mechanical systems. Sometimes, in a state of fatigue, you just don't swing that little paddle quite far enough.
The front shifting with Di2 is undeniably the best available. Having ridden SRAM Red, Campagnolo Super Record 11, both Di2 systems, and Dura-Ace mechanical in the last few months, the Di2 comes out as the clear winner. The ability to shift from little ring to big ring while stamping out 500 watts is unrivaled. That performance is a function of the motorized derailleur itself, which can be built much stiffer than any mechanical derailleur. It's also why I think SRAM had better jump on the electronic bandwagon sooner rather than later: now that more riders will have access to Di2, that front shift quality will soon become the norm.Pages: 1 2
