The Edison School Struggle: The Reshaping of Working-Class Education and Women's Consciousness
Wendy Luttrell
This article examines the interweavings of gender, class, and race consciousness among white working-class women activists who were involved in a community struggle for quality desegregated education. The Edison School campaign is an example of how one community successfully challenged a city's neglect of working-class education. It also allows us to explore how the texture of working-class women's lives, relationships, and self-awareness shaped their participation and leadership in grassroots organization. Although the events and activities of the Coalition for a New High School can be told in a distinct chronology, the development of these women's consciousness cannot. It is a story of personal change filled with unevenness and inconsistencies.
This article is based on interviews with five white working-class women leaders of the coalition and their shared sensibilities about their political activity. I explore the women's leadership as it is fueled by their current roles and activities as working-class mothers, as well as their past experiences as workingclass students. I argue that the women's gender, race, and class consciousness is not fixed or in rigid categories, but changes as they participate in a community struggle.
Then, I argue that there is no single relationship between the dominant social structure and its ideology and working-class consciousness. Instead, the women's perceptions are layered with both compliant and antagonistic responses and adaptations to the dominant culture.
Although the women I interviewed shared certain perceptions about their experiences, they had varied work, family, community, and political backgrounds and attitudes. As a result, it is impossible to characterize one single kind

"Modern capital without a real identity" Nairobi Area by sphynxxs
Nairobi Area Travel Guide: 745 reviews and 1,711 photos
no one can really tell how many people live in Nairobi - the numbers go somewhere between two and more than three million people, mainly because at least 60 % of the population live in slums which offically are "informal settlements with an unregistered population. Nairobi derives from the expression "cool water", and at an altitude of 1700 metres it sports a very moderate climate for a location just below the equator. In British colonial times it was thus an ideal location for the administration - not too hot or humid,with pleasant weather conditions most of the year.
Back then, Nairobi was planned for a size of 50 00 to 100 000 people - but since independence the number of inhabitants has exploded while a real city planning lags behind, despite the bold vision of a "metropolis Nairobi" the Kenyan government is favoring these days. You will find shack next to modern office buildings, power cuts are frequent and the streets are hopelessly jammed . Much of the historic architectural heritage in the city center has been torn down in favor of modern but facelessskyscrapers and office buildings
At least 60 % of the Nairobi population live in slums - only a minority can afford an apartment or house with amenities most of us consider "normal". While not all of the slum dwellers live in shacks like those in Kibera, even the more "comfortable" tenement houses are crowded and health and hygienic conditions are poor. offically the slum areas are "informal settlements with an unregistered population. For the city council this means they can conveniently ignore the needs of hundreds of thousands of people who have neither electricity nor running water or toilets in their houses.

Oh Sam
thats the lowest rate siobhan, id look elsewhere at the moment tescos is a lot better for online purchaesOriginally Posted by Disneybumble, post: 234554
so sorry to hear you may lose 3k sam....isnt there anything your CC co can do if you purchased your $$$$ with one?
Maybe things have changed Nut. I know the long thread on another forums where many people are posting how much they've lost said the only way Crown would accept money was through bankers draft, leaving them totally unprotected. Crowns reasons for only accepting bankers drafts was to reduce fees allowing them to offer the best rates to their customers.Originally Posted by ukwdwnut, post: 234643

Sam, your outlook on this very unpleasant circumstance is an inspiration! I don't know if I'd be able to look at the situation so brightly and not allow it to negatively affect my holiday! It's wonderful that you are not going to cancel, or to let this interfere. I so hope you are able to get your money back, even if you have to wait!
Yep, Claire. Correcting ourselves is what matters! Thank you for doing so.

I picked up an abandoned bike a couple weeks ago beside a dumpster. I was looking for a road bike to ride and I found it there. It was not in a rideable shape. Eyed it for about four days but no one took it. Then I took it into my garage.
I fixed it up and rode it around for a couple weeks. Worked for me. Then I realized that this bike might have been stolen. I looked up all local stolen bike registries with the serial number. None reported stolen. Then I looked at all of Canada. No match.
Finally put up an ad on Craigslist for it... will be sad to see it go since I put in a lot of work to make it run again, but... what's right is right. No response yet, though.
So the real question: Is it legal for me to keep the bike? What happens if any bloke comes up to me and claims that it's his / her bike? Do I have a right to maintain possession of the bike until the owner provides proof?
I'd like some advice both morally and legally. I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada, if that helps.
If anyone cares, here's a list of everything I did to make it run smooth again.
-Replaced front wheel (original wheel looked like it was hammered)
-New seat (old seat was torn up with no cushion left)
-Lots and lots of grime removal
-Lots and lots of rust removal
-Replaced both brake and shift cables. Had to replace housing as well (rust?ish grime)
-Replaced chain
-Replaced rear tire (no grip, bald spots showing)
-Replaced front tube (slow leak)
Ran me down about $60~ and about 8 hours of labour. Had a friend help me out for some part of it.

Reviews of Thamalakane River Lodge

Thamalakane River Lodge review
friendly helpful staff and manager , food very good , one small problem with the fan in the chalet was fixed quickly and without fuss.
allowed my son to keep his motorbike there whilst we were in moremi. a great place to relax before heading into the delta.
Thamalakane River Lodge review
This worked very well for a night before going home.
Comfortable, delightful outlook onto the river and good food.
Stopover in Maun
Thamalakane River Lodge is maybe a 10-15 min drive from Maun. It's a nice place to stay as an overnight stopover.
The rooms were comfortable, but the shower area is not particularly private. The dining area and deck overlooking the river are pleasant. Food and service good. Staff helpful.
Pool was average and could do with a clean. Would have used it if it hadn't looked so uninviting, as it was very hot.
Thamalakane River Lodge review
I spent the last night of my holiday here. The location is lovely, the staff were friendly and service was good and I would certainly recommend it.
Thamalakane River Lodge review
The rooms have no good lighting, not direct sunlight or lamps. It had a dark and gloomy feel. It was also so far from the city center that we felt it was too much of a bother to go into town. Decor needs updating. However, the staff were great at the office, and we had a pleasant meal at the restuarant.
The transportation service from Maun airport to the hotel and back was excellent.
Thamalakane River Lodge review
I only spent one night here but the room and bed were very welcome after a long trip by road! The staff in the restruarant were very attentive and looking out over the river was lovely.
The breakfast served on the morning I left was stone cold, that seriously needs addressing.
Excellent Thamalakane River Lodge
I very much enjoyed my night in this restful lodge on the river at Maun, albeit some distance outside the town. It was great not to have to rush straight back to London after 9 nights in the bush.
Individual stone built bungalows with all modern comforts and an excellent restaurant in a great setting, with a pool. Very friendly staff and transfer from the airport all added to the convenience and comfort.

For Healthcare Professionals
Applies to metoclopramide: compounding powder, injectable solution, oral concentrate, oral syrup, oral tablet, oral tablet disintegrating
Nervous system
Tardive dyskinesia involves involuntary, dyskinetic, repetitive movements and may be more common in elderly women. Tardive dyskinesia may be irreversible and is related to both the duration of therapy and the total amount of drug consumed. Frequent discontinuation and resumption of therapy may predispose patients to the development of tardive dyskinesia.
Dystonias frequently involve tongue protrusions, muscle rigidity, torticollis, and opisthotonos. Dystonias usually resolve after metoclopramide (the active ingredient contained in Reglan) discontinuation, but may require antihistamine and antiparkinsonian therapy if symptoms are severe or if respiration is compromised. Treatment of dystonic reactions and extrapyramidal effects, in addition to general supportive measures, may include judicious use of one or more of the following: benztropine or diphenhydramine.
Hyperthermia, altered consciousness, autonomic dysfunction, and muscle rigidity are the hallmarks of the neuroleptic malignant syndrome. The neuroleptic malignant syndrome is associated with a case fatality rate of about 20%. Immediate discontinuation of metoclopramide therapy, consideration of dantrolene administration, as well as intensive monitoring and supportive care are indicated.
Drug-induced parkinsonian symptoms due to metoclopramide may be misdiagnosed and inappropriately treated with dopaminergic agents. Parkinsonian-like symptoms have occurred, more commonly within the first 6 months from the start of therapy with metoclopramide, but occasionally after longer periods. Caution should be exercised when diagnosing movement disorders in patients currently being treated with metoclopramide. Additionally, metoclopramide should be avoided in patients with confirmed Parkinson's disease.
Patients with AIDS or HIV-positive may be at an increased risk of developing acute dystonia to metoclopramide use. Decreases in dopamine levels have been observed in a study of AIDS patients without clinical neurologic disease. Similarly, HIV-positive patients have shown a decreased response in serum prolactin during intravenous infusion of metoclopramide when compared with controls, interpreted as an indirect evidence of a diminished endogenous dopamine tone.[Ref]
Very common (10% or more): Drowsiness Up to 70%), fatigue, restlessness, lassitude
Uncommon (0.1% to 1%): Confusion, agitation, anxiety
Rare (0.01% to 0.1%): Seizures, hallucinations
Very rare (less than 0.01%): Neuroleptic malignant syndrome
Frequency not reported: Tardive dyskinesia, dystonia, pseudo-parkinsonism, akathisia[Ref]
Frequency not reported: Galactorrhea, amenorrhea, gynecomastia, impotence secondary to hyperprolactinemia, transient increase in circulating aldosterone levels and causing edema[Ref]
Frequency not reported: Depression, anxiety, mania, psychosis, insomnia[Ref]
Depression may occur in patients without prior history of depression or other psychiatric illness and may be severe. Suicidal ideation may be present. Several reports suggest that dose reduction may alleviate depressive symptomatology. In addition, reintroduction of metoclopramide with slow titration of the dose upwards to a therapeutic level has been successful in some patients.[Ref]
Very rare (less than 0.01%): Abnormalities of cardiac conduction (e.g., bradycardia, asystole, heart block, sinus arrest, cardiac arrest)
Frequency not reported: Hypotension, hypertension, supraventricular tachycardia, bradycardia, fluid retention, acute congestive heart failure, atrioventricular (AV) block, hypertensive crisis in patients with pheochromocytoma, transient flushing of the face and upper body (without alterations in vital signs, following high doses IV)[Ref]
It is postulated that metoclopramide may indirectly cause release of catecholamines from tumors in pheochromocytoma patients. Hypertensive crisis may ensue. The use of metoclopramide is considered contraindicated in patients with pheochromocytoma.
Hypertensive crisis has been documented in the absence of pheochromocytoma as well. The manufacturer recommends cautious use of metoclopramide in patients with essential hypertension.
Sinus bradycardia (50 beats per minute) progressing to complete heart block with sinus arrest has been reported in a 54-year-old man after receiving metoclopramide 10 mg IV. Asystole lasted approximately 25 seconds, followed by a spontaneous increase in heart rate to 80 beats per minute in sinus rhythm with a blood pressure of 140/70 mm Hg. Similar effects were observed on rechallenge with a dose of metoclopramide 5 mg given slowly. No changes in ST segment or QRS complexes were observed on electrocardiogram.[Ref]
Patients with NADH-cytochrome b5 reductase deficiency who need to receive metoclopramide (the active ingredient contained in Reglan) are at increased risk of developing methemoglobinemia and/or sulfhemoglobinemia. The treatment of metoclopramide-induced methemoglobinemia with methylene blue is not recommended in patients with G6PD deficiency.[Ref]
Rare (0.01% to 0.1%): Leucopenia, neutropenia, porphyria, agranulocytosis
Very rare (less than 0.01%): Red cell disorders (such as methemoglobinemia) (which could be related to NADH cytochrome b5 reductase deficiency particularly in neonates), sulfhemoglobinemia (particularly at high doses)[Ref]
Rare (0.01% to 0.1%): Hepatotoxicity (jaundice, altered liver function tests, when this drug was administered with other drugs with known hepatotoxic potential)
Very rare (less than 0.01%): Arteriovenous shunting and cholestasis in conjunction with hepatic hemangiomatosis
Frequency not reported: Porphyria[Ref]
Frequency not reported: Nausea, bowel disturbances (primarily diarrhea)[Ref]
Frequency not reported: Rash, urticaria, bronchospasm (especially in patients with a history of asthma), anaphylaxis, angioneurotic edema, glossal or laryngoedema reaction[Ref]
Frequency not reported: Nausea, bowel disturbances (primarily diarrhea)[Ref]
Frequency not reported: Bronchospasm[Ref]
Frequency not reported: Visual disturbances, decrease in pupil diameter, transiently depressed reflex dilation[Ref]
Very rare (less than 0.01%): Dystonic reaction[Ref]
The incidence of side effects correlates with dose and duration of therapy. The elderly may be more susceptible to developing adverse effects due to the changes in organ function, concomitant diseases, and other drug therapies.[Ref]
Very rare (less than 0.01%): Hypersensitivity (Including anaphylactic/anaphylactoid reactions, including symptoms such as tongue swelling/edema)[Ref]

This review is from: ASUS MeMO Pad 8 - Quad-Core 1GB RAM 16GB Flash 8.0" IPS Tablet, Android 4.2 – White Color (ME180A-A1-WH)
Pros: Same as earlier
Cons: same as earlier
Other Thoughts: Just to add a bit more. I called Asus tech support again for an issue I'm having. I asked this agent about the android updates.
He assured me that google is working on a 4.3 release and as soon as it's finished and released to manufactures, they will release it to us.
So, new day new story?
This review is from: ASUS MeMO Pad 8 - Quad-Core 1GB RAM 16GB Flash 8.0" IPS Tablet, Android 4.2 – White Color (ME180A-A1-WH)
Pros: Nice display.
Good enough performance.
Good Sound volume and pretty good quality
Cons: Stuck at Android 4.2 with no updates on the horizon as per Asus tech support.
Other Thoughts: After seeing this on Newegg I called and asked a couple of questions. Newegg gave me the number to Asus support so I called them.
Asus support was nice and after putting me on hold a couple of times came back and told me
1. There is no difference between this and the HD model
2. All memo pads update to android 4.4 which has the feature to move apps to sdcard.
That's the only reason I purchased it, the moving of the apps.
Well, as others have noticed, it won't update. I called Asus back today and was told there are no updates listed for the memo pad.
I think they just say yes to everything you ask so you'll purchase their product.
Now, stuck between a rock and a hard place, I'm not sure what to do with it, I'm on a time crunch now.
Newegg has been Super Great through all this as this is actually a replacement for a defective unit I purchased last week, Still "GO NEWEGG!"
Based on recent experiences with Asus support, I'd say stay away. They used to be one of the best companies around.
This review is from: MSI Primo 73 9S7-N71J14-036 Dual-core ARM Cortex-A7 1 GB Memory 16 GB 7.0" Touchscreen Tablet Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean)
Pros: Inexpensive
Good Name Brand
Cons: Doesn't use all the storage space. Only a very very small bit.
Performance is sub par.
Wireless performance is very poor. Much lower range than other devices.
No driver for windows until you update the firmware.
Updating the firmware erases all your data and apps.
Washed out colors.
Poor touchscreen performance.
Other Thoughts: Purchased based on previous experience with MSI. I used them for several years while assembling pcs.
It's a shame that this tablet is so bad.
As others have mentioned. Total space, rather than 16GB is reported as 504MB - Then another 12.35GB on a SDCard which you cannot use. (even still, this wouldn't come close to being the 16GB advertised)
After calling MSI tech support, they said in order to use the full 12GB I need to update the firmware and sent me a link for the file. The file is ~600MB . I installed the program to update the firmware, phoenix something, but unfortunately the help file and other bits aren't in English, and I don't speak Chinese/Korean, or whatever it was.
As instructed I replied to the email from tech, but din't hear from them again.
When I hook the Primo up to my computer it cannot find a driver. Sound simple enough, I went to their site and downloaded one, but you have to have the latest firmware to use it, but you can't get the latest firmware installed without it? Anyway...
Wireless performance is fairly poor. At 21 feet from my Dir-825 router I lose connection. Our other devices in the house work fine allot further away, phones, ipad, and a laptop. This is really annoying when trying to get something from the app store.
I have 4 apps installed on here, facebook, pinterest, wordsearch, and an ebook reader. It is telling me that I don't have anymore storage space!
The colors are really really washed out and unfortunately there isn't a way to adjust that other than brightness.
I kind of mainly purchased this as an e-book reader for my wife on her trip that is coming up, but it's too awkward to use and is just not worth it, because of the jittery performance, poor color, and storage issue.
We might have kept it if the firmware update would have been successful, however I'm going to assume that with all these issues that it's defective and am going to return it. I'll purchase a different one, but since this is MSI's first attempt at a tablet, I think I'll choose another brand.

L. Nathan Oaklander
The problems of time and change are inextricably connected for change involves time and, Shoemaker (1969) notwithstanding, time involves change, or so McTaggart (1934; 1968) has argued. That they are related is not in doubt; how they are related is. For McTaggart they are related in such a way that if there is to be time and change, then there must be an A-series, and temporal becoming, but what is the A-series? And what is temporal becoming? These are not easy questions to answer, because there are many different versions of A-time and temporal becoming, and I do not intend to discuss them all. Rather, my aim will be to focus on one version of A-time, the presentist version, and argue that, contrary to its recent proponents, it does succumb to McTaggart's paradox. 1 Even within the limited scope of this chapter, the task of refuting presentism is complicated by there being several different versions of it. One would not think that this is so because all presentists maintain that only the present exists, whereas the past and the future do not exist. Nevertheless, there are different presentist versions of the A-theory, and, although I believe that in one way or another they are all susceptible to McTaggart's paradox, there is only one version that I shall endeavour to refute, namely that propounded by William Lane Craig in his recent trilogy on time: The Tensed Theory of Time: A Critical Examination (2000a), The Tenseless Theory of Time: A Critical Examination (2000b) and Time and the Metaphysics of Relativity (2001).
I chose Craig's defence of presentism for two reasons. First, A-theorists who follow Prior in adopting a presentist 'metaphysic' are often criticized for lacking an ontology (see, for example, Oaklander 1984:90-2; Smith 1993:158-69; 1994a; 1999:248-9; 2003; Tooley 1997:165-70, 232-8). To say that the tenses do not refer to B-relations and do not ascribe A-properties is one thing, to say what then are the ontological correlates of the tenses is quite another. It is the latter task that Prior and his followers are commonly accused of shirking. Craig is an exception. He is sensitive to the 'lack of ontology' criticism of Prior-based theories (see Craig 2000a: 192-4), and attempts to 'found' or provide an ontological ground for both B-relations and A-determinations in the A-series, 'tensed facts' and temporal becoming. For that reason, he provides his readers with a metaphysical theory to be evaluated.

Healy and Ross accept new deals
Rugby:The IRFU has announced that Leinster and Ireland props Cian Healy and Mike Ross have committed to new contracts.
Healy, 25, who plays at loosehead, has signed a three-year deal that will keep him at Leinster until the end of the 2015/16 season, while tighthead Ross, 33, has been handed a two-year deal until the end of the 2014-15 season.
Cork-born Ross represented both Munster and Ireland at underage levels before moving to Harlequins. He moved back to Ireland and Leinster for the beginning of the 2009-10 season and has gone on to make 80 appearances for the province.
He made his debut for Ireland in June 2009 against Canada and has won 24 caps since then, appearing in the World Cup in 2011.
Healy was also an underage representative for both Leinster and Ireland and made his debut for the province in May 2007, only two months after winning Ireland's first ever under-20 Grand Slam.
He has played 109 times for Leinster and also won the first of 35 caps for Ireland against Australia in 2009.
Leinster coach Joe Schmidt welcomed the news that he will be able to work with the two props for the remainder of his time ain Ireland.
"We're delighted that both Cian and Mike have each committed their futures to the province. It is a timely boost, not just for Leinster but also for Ireland ahead of the Six Nations.
"Cian has proven himself at club and international levels over the last number of seasons. He has packed a lot of achievements into his career already and it is hard to believe he is just 25 years of age. We believe that Cian's best years are to come and we are pleased that he will do so in the colours of his home province.
"Mike has been a mainstay of the Leinster squad and a consistent force in both the Leinster and Ireland frontrows over the last few years. He has played a key role in our recent successes and his impressive form - in what is one of the most physically rigorous positions in the game - is a testament to his durability."
For his part, Healy is keen to add to his and the province's successes in recent years.
"The whole experience of playing for Leinster is something that I wanted to keep with me and also possibly winning more silverware as well," said Healy. "I still feel there is plenty more left in the tank for the province and there is a great group of players there and great support, so I'm really happy to have agreed a new contract to stay here in Ireland."
Ross added: "The last four years have been a great experience for me from winning my first cap for Ireland and playing in the Rugby World Cup to appearing in two Heineken Cup finals. Those are great memories and achievements in my career and so I'm delighted to have a new contract agreed to get the chance to hopefully continue that."

CBP approves unmanned pedestrian border crossing in Texas
A new computerized border crossing in Big Bend National Park, Texas, will accommodate only pedestrian traffic, not the cargo and commercial traffic originally envisioned.
To pass through the unmanned Boquillas crossing, a Class B port of entry, pedestrians will have to present identification and border-crossing documents to be electronically scanned, according to a notice published Dec. 28 in the Federal Register. Customs and Border Protection anticipates the crossing will primarily be used by U.S. park visitors taking a ferry across the Rio Grande to visit the Mexican village of Boquillas.
The CBP proposal drew criticism that remote technology would not provide adequate security to keep illegal immigrants, terrorists, criminals and contraband out of the country. But CBP said its agents in El Paso will process and clear pedestrians through electronic connections to kiosks at the crossing.
Security measures will include a 24-hour surveillance camera monitored at CBP's Combined Area Security Center and at the Border Patrol station in Alpine, Texas. Border Patrol agents within Big Bend National Park will be available to perform physical inspections as needed, according to the notice. Crossings will be allowed only during daylight.
Additionally, the joint-use facility being built by CBP and the National Park Service will function as a visitor center manned by Park Service personnel. CBP and the Park Service also are building new residences in the park to house additional Border Patrol agents to permanently work and live in the park.
The nearest legal border crossing to the Boquillas crossing is at Presidio, Texas, more than 120 miles west by road on the U.S. side. The closest legal crossing to the east is at Del Rio, Texas, more than 260 miles by U.S. road.
A previous crossing at Boquillas was closed in 2002.

A protest challenging Destiny Church's apparent homophobic stance marred the church's celebration of its first birthday yesterday at Wellington High School.
One of the school's students sat at the back of the school hall, a silent protester against the church group.
"There's a fine line between tolerance and intolerance," said Sonny Thomas, a Year 12 student and the organiser of a 603-signature student petition.
"Destiny has crossed that line. No longer can people be tolerant of their beliefs and their hate."
About six Victoria University students supported Mr Thomas' stand, holding placards in the bitter cold outside. They were ignored by the churchgoers.
During the service, Pastor Campbell Bond tried to distance himself and the church from last week's controversial Wellington march against the Civil Union Bill.
"The Enough is Enough public stand is over," he preached. "We are not ... Christian activists."
The church was now getting on with the real job, he said. "We are here to tell the message that God is a good God."
Destiny Church is pulling in the crowds. In Auckland, the congregation is cramped in a 1400-seat auditorium. In Wellington, about 200 attend every week.

Since HTML5 doesn't have an official video file format yet and fullscreen support isn't in all browsers, I've been wondering if Chrome, Safari, or Firefox can be instructed to have their HTML5 video players replaced with VLC and how I can go about setting that up (PC/Mac owner here).
I know that plugins are supposedly full of security issues, but I believe more of it has to do with flash than anything else. Anyways, in my opinion it would be a good idea if everyone could choose the browser's default HTML5 video player. This way, we won't have to worry about lack of support for true fullscreen, nor mp4, WebM and OGV. Also, I'm not doing beta browsers since they very easily turn buggy.
Vimeo and many other sites would be great for HTML5 if this is currently possible.

Catering to the Individual
When most coaches think of individualization, they do the former and try and adapt their athlete to the training program. By this, I mean that they have their own training model or system and they try and force the athlete into this model. For example, if someone was using a strict Lydiard system, he would try and get the athlete up to 100mpw, then follow it with hills, etc. The coaches idea of individualizing this program for the athlete would be to adjust the quantity or quality of the training, but the overall system would be the same. For instance, he would adjust the mileage up or down or the amount of hill repeats done, or any other variable like this. By doing this, the coach thinks he is adapting to the individual. However, all he is really doing is taking that same training model and putting the athlete in it.
Another form of individualization used by coaches is to adapt their training program based on the event the athlete runs. In doing this, coaches change their training system slightly based on the different track events. The athletes are put into groups based on the type of runner they are. If they are a 1500m runner, then their training would differ slightly from if they were a 5,000m runner. For instance, one such system, based on Frank Horwill's work, would use the 2 distances above and below the race distance as the main training paces. A 1500m runner would therefore train at race pace in addition to 400m, 800m, 5000m and 10km pace. While a 5000m runner would get rid of 400m pace and add half marathon pace. The problem with this type of individualization is that it assumes that every runner running a particular event is the same. So the coach is NOT adapting to the individual. Instead he is adapting to an event. He still has a particular training system, and slightly changes based on the event run.
True individualization requires adaptation of the training system to the athlete. This means that the training system changes, sometimes entirely, based on the individual physiology of an athlete. If we look at physiology, it can be seen that individuals vary widely in a number of different aspects. Some of those aspects we are well aware of, such as the percentage of different muscle fibers an athlete has. Other aspects are probably unknown to us, such as some genetic limits, or the total amount of adaptation energy a person has. Acknowledging that we do not have the whole picture figured out, it is important to make individual adaptations in our training based on the parameters that we do know. For example, it is relatively easy to change training based on fiber types. An athlete with predominately Fast Twitch fibers will adapt very differently than one with predominately ST fibers. The same can be said with athlete with high or low aerobic and anaerobic capacities, or Lactate thresholds, or any other parameter.
As a quick example, the FT athlete will need a different type of endurance training than the ST athlete. If both athletes wanted to run the 5k, a traditional training scheme might say that VO2max and Lactate Threshold are essential for the 5k. So the coach would use lots of VO2max and LT training. The problem with that is that each of these training zones (zones are another pet peeve that I hate… but that's another topic) will affect the athlete differently. By doing lots of LT training, the FT athlete will actually decrease his anaerobic capacity too much and not get much of a training stimulus because he has a high percentage of FT fibers. If we look at LT training, it can be seen that the intensity isn't great enough to elicit many aerobic benefits in FT-b type fibers. So the athlete wouldn't be improving the aerobic capabilities of the fibers he predominately has. In addition to this, the few ST fibers he has, would probably be overwhelmed. To improve endurance, a more prudent approach for our FT athlete would be to do repeats at a quicker pace (3k-10k pace), such as 800's. This is just one of many examples that could be given.
Ignoring Science for a minute, the individualization of an athlete's training can be seen in the wide variety of successful training programs used by different coaches. If we just look at one event, say the 1500m, we can see that we've had World Record holders and Olympic medalist succeed off of a wide range of training programs. Some used very high mileage, some used very low mileage. Others used endless repeats with lots of anaerobic training, while others were strength based. How can so many seemingly different programs produce great results? It's because the program worked for that individual. It may not have worked for another equally talented but different runner. Even the greatest training system will NOT work for every runner.
Acknowledging that a wide variety of training programs work for a variety of runners allows us to see that the best individualization would be one that would allow for a coach to train athletes in completely opposite ways if need be. For instance, a coach could have one athlete doing 120mpw with lots of LT running, while another athlete on the same team doing 40mpw with lots of fast repeat 400s. Unfortunately, this type of individualization rarely occurs because it would take an in depth knowledge of a wide variety of training systems. Coaches sometimes feel like they have to develop a system (such as a Lydiard, or Daniels or whoever system) and not deviate from those principles. Perhaps then the best system is no system at all, and just coach purely based on what one particular athlete needs. Unfortunately, that may beyond our grasps at the moment because of knowledge limitations, among other things.
Lastly, if you do not by all of the information in this rant, consider this workout. It is designed to improve recovery, increase capillarization, and increase the aerobic capacity. These claims have been backed up by research and by the success of many athletes. What's the workout?
6-8x200m w/ 50m walk breaks in 26
Yes, for sprinters (which is where I got the info from) it will do things such as increase capillarization. Yet for distance runners, it would serve as a type of speed endurance or anaerobic workout. For distance runners the same claims have been made for long runs. How can the same workout accomplish two completely opposite things? How can 14 mile runs and 200s in 26-27 accomplish the same thing in different individuals? Individualization.

800m Time Trial-
Anyways, I needed to test my new allergy and asthma medication sometime, so I figured yesterday was as good a day as any. Instead of treating it like a race, I just did a 1mile jog, then a few stretches and a couple strides and was ready to go. I had a two person crowd during the warm up (two older guys trotting around the track) but unfortunately they left before the big race commenced. So I had a capacity crowd of zero watching me. To further hype me up, their was a nice strong wind down the backstretch.
Throw in all of this and I almost bagged the thing, but decided I'd go out and if I came through the first 400 and felt decent, I'd continue. If I felt like crap, I'd just bag it. After standing on the starting line for a minute or two, hoping that the wind would die down, I decided to get this thing over with.
Not having done much work at 800m pace lately, my first 200m was WAY too fast. I didn't split it off but I saw 26-27 when I crossed. So I figure 26 high-27 low, but the problem was this was INTO the wind. To compensate for this, I slacked off the pace and tried to relax. I came through the 400 right at 55, and made the decision to continue for now. The next 200m sucked big time. I backed off WAY too much and the wind threw off my pace judgement. I threw in a nice 29sec 200 to come by 600 in 1:24.2. At this point, I thought, well I'm either going to die in and run 1:54 and know I suck, or I could kick it in and run okay. I ended up choosing the later option w/ 120m to go and split 28.3 for the last 200 to run 1:52.5 for the 800.
I think I had another gear there if someone was there pushing me. Also, I lost too much into the wind from 400 to 600m. I'm not sure exactly what to think of this. It's my second fastest 800m ever (which isn't saying much b/c my 800m pr sucks) in pretty crappy conditions, by myself, at the end of a 90mi week.
The race itself felt pretty good. I recovered quickly which is a plus and no bad asthma effects. I could feel a burning type sensation in my throat and feel it start to shut down a little. So still got to correct that problem.
So, what to do now. I think I'm going to give a rested 800m a go, since I'm close to my PR. Might as well salvage the season and get an 800m pr out of it. I'll probably need to do a 1500m to test the medications to see if they work in that race, because that's what's been giving me the most problems. Who knows where though. I might just do another time trial or something.
Oh ya, I won the race too, competition was fierce.

"Exhibition of traditional costumes" Top 5 Page for this destination Gyangze Local Custom Tip by sachara
Gyangze Local Customs: 5 reviews and 6 photos
In the big entrance hall of out hotel in Gyantze was an exhibition of traditional costumes. The colourful dresses were richily decorated and embroidered. They told us that, these dresses were only used for special occasions. That's why we didn't see any Tibetan, walking in the streets in such a costume. That was a pity, but by this exhibition we could get any idea of the local traditional clothes anyway.

2008 Scion tC Hatchback 2dr Hatchback (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
Purchased the car used with 17k miles on it in February of 2010. It now has close to 40k and has been great! Excellent performance for a 4 cylinder engine. The car actually has some torque so its not necessary to downshift every time you come across a hill. The transmission is a little clunky, and it would be nice to have a 6th gear for extended periods on the highway, but its not enough to take away from the car. Stock tires were junk, but still had a little tread left @ 35k. Good sound system for a factory stereo, and its nice that its ipod compatible. Overall its been a great car!!
Radio, fun to drive, looks good, super easy to maintain/work on.
The stock tires could be better, paint isn't the most durable in the world. Other than that nothing!
2008 Scion tC Hatchback 2dr Hatchback (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
I love my car..Nothing but routine maintenance for my Tc. No problems what so ever after 2 1/2 years of ownership. Will probably buy a new battery for her. The only thing that scion forgot to put on these cars was a rear window wiper/sprayer assembly. Other than that, ,everything has been great. I would not mind having a 6th gear on this manual transmission. And scion, ,please put a short throw shifter in during assembly, ,with a shorter height to shift lever also. No need for a truck like shifter in a sporty car as the tc. That is why I lowered mine. Great car and will buy again when that time comes.
Rear window wiper/washer assembly or an aftermarket one if a company would make one for it, I would and a lot of others would purchase one.
2008 Scion tC Hatchback 2dr Hatchback (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
My 2008 is the second brand new Scion tC that I have purchased. It is a well built vehicle with the Toyota quality. After almost 100,000 trouble free miles on my first one I decided to purchase another brand new one. The 2008 tC was planned to be a performance modified race & show car, of which it is now. Being a mechanic the tC has been one of the easiest vehicles I have ever worked on and maintained. I have seen countless testimonies of owners getting 100-200K and higher miles on the tC with virtually no issues outside of normal maintenance. While no vehicle is perfect, I definitely would say that you get a lot of car and quality for the price.
engine bay layout, upgraded factory Pioneer system with underfloor sub-woofer, interior room I'm 6 foot and have plenty of leg room.
not many on my list, but a rear wiper system for the large rear hatch window would be nice, and better quality in the exterior paint. It does tend to chip more easily than I think it should.
2008 Scion tC Hatchback 2dr Hatchback (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
I love my car. It is fun to drive, great gas mileage and a real head turner. I am an empty nester and this car reminds me of all the fun I used to have driving. I am always up for a road trip!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have GPS a back-up camera and a sub woffer. You decide.
2008 Scion tC Hatchback 2dr Hatchback (2.4L 4cyl 5M)
Great acceleration and fun to drive, but with toyota build quality and reliability. I get a lot of comments from folks admiring the car.
Sound system, interior look and feel, shift pattern, moonroof.
telescoping steering wheel would be great.

The Vampire Archives: The Most Complete Volume of Vampire Tales Ever…
by Otto Penzler
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This book is just what it ought to be -- great, varied, and complete without being boringly exhaustive. It's a good mix of classic and modern writers, each given a brief but informative introduction at the beginning of his or her story.
Some of the stories won't make sense unless you know some legends about vampires that have dropped out of common knowledge. It used to be thought, for instance, that suicide was a direct path to vampirehood.
This collection also has a few stories from an early twentieth-century fad for psychic detectives -- Sherlock Holmes with magical powers. Not great literature, but good clean fun.
Every possible variety of vampire is represented here, and the stories are arranged by category rather than chronologically, which keeps the collection lively.
I read this via audiobook. There are several narrators, all very good and carefully chosen to suit each story -- no American women reading stories told by British men or vice versa.
If you don't already love vampires, this isn't the book that will convert you -- though I dare anyone not to be intrigued and disturbed by Gahan Wilson's "The Sea Was Wet As Wet Could Be," or Mary A. Turzillo's "When Gretchen Was Human." I think my favorite, though, is Tanith Lee's "Bite-Me-Not, or Fleur de Fur."
The Vampire Archive is billed as the most complete, most evil collection of vampire stories. Is it? Well, yeah, it's a pretty good survey of the literature. It's also got some pretty evil vampires. At nearly 1100 pages, it's hard to see how more would be possible - or better. Otto Penzler's done a great job of selecting good stories from well before Stoker until today, from well known authors to some forgotten classics. I expect I'll be going back to this volume for years to come.
In "The Vampire Archives: The Most Complete Volume of Vampire Tales Ever Published," editor Otto Penzler assembles 80-plus stories that offer a survey of the genre from the early 1800s to the present day... Were Dracula to appear now, he might still be saying, "I don't drink -- wine," but then he'd be rushing to see his therapist or school counselor. "The Vampire Archives" traces the arc of that long lineage, featuring useful introductions by Kim Newman, Neil Gaiman and Penzler, some stories you'll know (Maupassant's "The Horla," Conan Doyle's "The Sussex Vampire"), and plenty you won't, such as Peter Tremayne's startling and unsettling "Dracula's Chair," not to mention more bad-girl roles than even Megan Fox could ever play.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0307473899, Paperback)The Vampire Archives is the biggest, hungriest, undeadliest collection of vampire stories, as well as the most comprehensive bibliography of vampire fiction ever assembled. Dark, stormy, and delicious, once it sinks its teeth into you there's no escape.
Vampires! Whether imagined by Bram Stoker or Anne Rice, they are part of the human lexicon and as old as blood itself. They are your neighbors, your friends, and they are always lurking. Now Otto Penzler—editor of the bestselling Black Lizard Big Book of Pulps—has compiled the darkest, the scariest, and by far the most evil collection of vampire stories ever. With over eighty stories, including the works of Stephen King and D. H. Lawrence, alongside Lord Byron and Tanith Lee, not to mention Edgar Allan Poe and Harlan Ellison, The Vampire Archives will drive a stake through the heart of any other collection out there.
Other contributors include:
Arthur Conan Doyle • Ray Bradbury • Ambrose Bierce • H. P. Lovecraft • Harlan Ellison • Roger Zelazny • Robert Bloch • Clive Barker
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:12:45 -0400)
Horror fiction. Here are ruined castles, abbeys and crypts, spires and bats silhouetted against full moons, sharp-toothed men in full evening dress seducing beautiful, innocent young women, coffin lids being raised to reveal unspeakable residents. But the classic vampire of gothic tradition is not the only fiend to stalk the thousand pages of this vast collection. Vampires come in many guises, and all can be found within: reluctant vampires, detective vampires, space vampires, lesbian vampires, punk vampires. There are stories here by men and women from every literary era of the past century and a half, right up to the most talented writers of the present day. Includes stories from Lord Byron, John Keats, Bram Stoker, Arthur Conan Doyle, Edgar Allan Poe, M R James, H P Lovecraft, D H Lawrence, Roger Zelazny, Ray Bradbury, Harlan Ellison, Dan Simmons, Lisa Tuttle, Stephen King, Anne Rice and Clive Barker.… (more)
