AP Source: Senate plan to stiffen border security
The new goals would be achieved by giving the Department of Homeland Security six months from the bill's enactment to create a new border security plan deploying the personnel, infrastructure and technology needed to achieve the 90 percent effectiveness rate. Also within six months, the department would have to create a plan to identify where new fencing is needed on the border. Once those plans are certified, people living here illegally could begin to apply for a provisional status allowing them to work here legally.
If the 90 percent rate of apprehensions isn't achieved in high-risk border sectors within five years, a commission made of border state officials would make recommendations on how to achieve it.
After 10 years, people granted "registered provisional immigrant status" could apply for green cards granting them permanent residency - and the ability to seek citizenship - if the new security and fencing plans have been completed, the mandatory employment verification system is in place and used by all employers, and the new electronic exit system is operating at airports and seaports, collecting machine-readable visa or passport information from airplanes and ships.
The electronic exit system is meant to keep better track of people in the country on temporary visas. Some 40 percent of people in the country illegally arrived with visas but stayed after they expired. The employment verification piece would be an expansion of an existing system called E-Verify that's currently voluntary for most employers, though it's mandatory in some states.
The bill would allocate $5.5 billion for the various proposals, including $1.5 billion for fencing, $2 billion for other border measures and $2 billion to help the commission of border state officials do its work, should that become necessary, the person said, stressing more or less money could be allocated if needed.
The border security details were first reported Wednesday by the Wall Street Journal.

Snow (1962)
by P. D. Eastman, Roy McKié (Illustrator)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
Snow is an amazing beginner book. The first snow is always the most beautiful day because of the blankets and blankets of untouched snow. On this day, two siblings or friends are able to enjoy the first snow. A day filled with lots of snow, laughter and many fun activities. The illustrations are picture perfect because it able the capture how snow looks and the many activities going on. The colors are simple, but eye catching too because of how the Illuster was able to draw and sketch out the characters. I really love the text used in this book because it was so easy to read. Teachers should definitely share this book with their students. It can be used in the classroom by letting the students self-read. Since, it is such an easy book many young students are able to read this book to themselves. I really like how this book was so cute and readable for young readers. Many young readers will be able to read this on their own and will proud about it.
One of my favorite read alouds.
I always like to read this book in the winter because it reminds me of how I felt during winter as a child when it snowed. I used to read this book when it snowed, and as a result have a sort of sentimental attachment to it. This was my designated "snow day book." The thing I like best about this book is that it is simplistic, but still tells a good story. I think this is a perfect recipe for children's books. Another thing I like about this book is that the illustrations look like they were colored in by a child. They have bold black lines with primary colors in the middle, occasionally spilling out. This, coupled with the simplistic text, really gives the feel that it is written by a child, which is especially interesting because the narrator of the book is a child. It is written as if the child went out and played in the snow, and then came back inside and wrote this book about his adventures. The main idea of this book is that no matter how old you are, there is still something purely magical about playing in the snow.
Simply written so it is good for a range of ages, for parents to read to their children, and also new readers who are sounding out words and beginning to read on their own. This is one of my favorite P.D Eastman books because it is about a subject that all kids love, we all love snow days and being able to play outside in it. I also love the illustrations because they aren't over done, they are quite simple but beautiful at the same time. There isn't much range of colors used, but it is enough to make the picture pop but not overtake the story being told.
Summary: An older "I can read it all by myself beginner book" all about snow. The book covers all the different activities you could do in the snow and why the children in the book like snow. It has simple words that rhyme through out so that it catches the attention of little ones and yet is easy for the beginner reader to read.
Personal Reaction: I have had this book since I was a little kid. I am not sure how I came to own it but it was published in 1962. I can't remember if I liked the book as a child but I think I must have because I remember the words well and I smile when I think about the book. I still enjoy it now as a adult and I have read it to both my girls over the years. I like the colors used in the illustrations and the rhyming of the words.
Classroom Extension Ideas: The kids could write short stories, or if to young, draw pictures, of their favorite season and what activities they like to do during that season.
We could learn about snow and how it is "made", which could lead to other weather related lessons as well.

The Occupational Health and Safety Administration (OSHA) has fined Walt Disney World $69,000 in conjunction with several safety violations related to the death of a cast member. 52-year-old Russell Roscoe, a mechanic, was injured while performing tests on Primeval Whirl at Disney's Animal Kingdom on March 13, 2011. Roscoe later died from those injuries.
Walt Disney World was charged with a "serious violation" because they "did not furnish employment and a place of employment which were free from recognized hazards that were causing or likely to cause death or serious physical harm to employees." In addition, they were cited for issues related to safety equipment and guardrail violations.
While Disney doesn't say if they will appeal the findings, they did announce Primeval Whirl would reopen this weekend after being closed since January of this year. Disney spokesperson Bryan Malenius said, "We have conducted a thorough internal review of the incident and have implemented several safety enhancements to Primeval Whirl, which address the concerns raised by OSHA."

I saw Dr. Peters for several years, but no longer. I had gone to see her when I had several weeks of severe pain. During the brief examination she said "you look a little red and inflamed" and sent me on my way with hemorrhoid cream. Never examined me internally...never ordered any further tests or ultrasound, etc. The pain continued for several more months until I saw another physician and was diagnosed with cancer. Sadly, I will never return to this group and was greatly disappointed that I was treated properly from the beginning.
Dr. Peters has horrible bedside manner. I met with her and she didn't introduce herself when she came into the room (45 minutes late), didn't look me in the eye, and talked over me when I tried to ask questions. At 20 weeks pregnant with my first child, I really needed a doctor to listen and answer my questions. This doctor made me feel uneasy, judged, and disregarded.
Dr. Peters is a caring compassionate doctor. In addition, she is very accurate in diagnosing a problem.

Catching up on the OSU bowl updates on NewsOK
I wasn't at my house for the live coverage of the BCS announcement last night. I missed the live show and immediate opinions from the experts. That's OK. I think I know what they all said.
But I did get immediate word of the BCS poll results, thanks to NewsOK's text alerts and email updates. I saw it quickly. Then I saw all the updates on Twitter and Facebook. I read the stories and blogs on my iPhone. I was informed and up to date. I even vocally shared my disappointment with the system to anyone within ear shot (yeah, OSU should be angry).
But browsing today, I had a chance to see everything I missed while I was out, including this video from the OSU football facilities with the team.
Excellent work from the NewsOK sports and video teams. They were both all over this story.

Why Oscar Loves a Biography
Audio Extra
Helen Mirren won an Oscar last night for playing Queen Elizabeth II. Forest Whitaker won for portraying Ugandan dictator Idi Amin.
This decade has seen the most acting Oscars handed out for performers playing real people. To find out why, we turned to James Lipton, host of Bravo's Inside the Actor's Studio. And in a twist on his own interview show's famous closing survey, he answered a few other questions for us. Listen to the interview at the inset above.

Karina Smirnoff Hands Out Christmas Meals During the Holidays (PHOTOS)
Karina Smirnoff is giving back for the holidays.
The Dancing With the Stars pro spent Christmas day handing out meals to the less fortunate at the Los Angeles Mission. Karina wore an apron, a hat, gloves, and of course, a big smile on her face, while serving macaroni and cheese and ham.
"Had a blast today at LA Mission @thelamission Great energy all around! #skidrowchristmas@chaoticsymphony @basilhodge," Karina wrote, along with an Instagram photo from the day.
Other celebs that stepped out for the Los Angeles Mission? Bella Thorne and Bianca Lawson, and more were also lending a hand to those less fortunate. These guys are awesome!

Steve Wynn in Concert
Set List
The Deep End
There Will Come A Day
What Comes After
Freak Star
Encore: Days of Wine and Roses
Steve Wynn is celebrated for his ground-breaking work with The Dream Syndicate, a band that helped invent the American indie rock scene of the 1980s. Now recording and touring with The Miracle Three, Wynn visits the World Cafe Live stage in Philadelphia, Pa. for a midday concert. His performance originally webcast live on NPR.org Feb. 17.
Wynn has built a strong, cult following for his prolific solo output since the early 90s. His latest CD, Tick... Tick... Tick was recorded with The Miracle Three in Tucson, Ariz. It's the third and final release in his self-described "Desert Trilogy" — a series that includes the 2001 CD Here Come the Miracles and 2003's Static Transmission.
"If Miracles was cocky, sprawling and swaggering, and Static was moody, nervous and dangerous, I wanted this one to push the boundaries in a different direction," says Wynn in his personal blog. "I wanted this album to be one that separates the wheat from the chaff, the men from the boys, the faint of heart from their wallets. I wanted to go back into the desert and battle the blinding heat with the dizzying neon glare that we would bring from New York."
Wynn is the latest in a series of live, midday concerts from NPR member station WXPN and World Cafe Live, with host Helen Leicht. Previous shows are listed at right.

Since we last visited UKNakedMen...
Every once in a while I stumble across a site like UK Naked Men and I almost want to cry from the sheer majesty of the male models. You might know by now that I don't get weepy over popular sites that have smooth and slender lads as their mainstay. That's why I loved the hunks here. Some are a bit furry, some are smooth, some are beefy, some are very muscular and, obviously, some are slim English gents.
UKNakedMen has 378 videos. You used to only be able to stream them - and you still can - but now you can also save them in three MP4 formats, including one that lets you experience the porn in HD. The older scenes are slightly less impressive than the newer ones, but they're still very high in quality.
The scenes have great production values, with many having glossy backdrops and sleek editing. You'll see a lot of dudes jerking off to a creamy cumshot ending, while other flicks feature hardcore sucking and fucking sessions. Many guys get it on in one-on-one scenes, but you can also catch some sizzling threesomes and foursomes.
You can also check out about 1,155 photo galleries that show a lot of posing and masturbation, but there are hardcore shoots thrown in as well. There are sets of vid caps mixed in with the galleries, so don't be surprised when you run across them. Most of the time the video captures are large and crisp, but you won't confuse them with the high-res photographs.
There are many well-hung, uncut fellows, some sexy ginger studs, the occasional kilt, loads of tattoos and many piercings. It's amazing to see the diversity of hunks one can find on this nation of islands, although it seems as though some of them were imported from Europe.
Given the amount of porn you get and the fact that the site adds a new video and two sets of photos each week, you could hardly ask for more. But in case you do want more, you can check out some additional movies and video feeds. With all these additions and updates still rolling in, you'll definitely want to join UK Naked Men to see these hot Englishmen, Scotsmen and Irishmen.
* Please include a pro and a con about the site. Balance is essential in making a comment worthwhile. Scores without comments will be deleted.

Tomorrow, I am going in for my first perm in over a year. I used to perm my hair quite frequently when I was participating in pageants, but let it go because of the expense. If you're considering a perm, here are some things you should know.
Proper Preparation A perm can be very damaging to your hair. To help prevent some of this damage, you need to deep condition before and after. I like VO5 Total Recovery. This will give your hair a little extra shielding against the harsh chemicals.
The Right Tools Whether you plan to wear your hair curly or straight, you need to have the right equipment for the job. You will need to purchase a diffuser cuff, a ceramic round brush, and a wide toothed comb. The comb is essential for post shower use, the cuff is great for creating volume and curl on blowout free days, and the ceramic brush conducts heat better than metal with less damage to the hair shaft.
The Right Products When I wear my hair curly, I must have: John Freida FrizzEase Conditioning Spray, Nexxus Versastyler, Aveda Humectant Pomade and Tresamme light finishing spray. No one wants crunch curls, but you need bounce and hold.
When I straighten my hair and there is a perm underneath, I need to protect my locks from further damage. This is critical, or else you wind up looking like a frizzy Cocker Spaniel. First, I like to repair with Ojon Restorative Treatment. Smells funky, works great. Then I add a heat protecting spray like Nexxus Heat Protexx before blow drying. Then I blow dryer using the ion setting and a ceramic brush. I also avoid any gels or hairsprays that contain alcohol as that will only dry the hair out further. Kerastase in the green bottle is great for protecting and repairing weakened hair.
Perm Decisions Beyond products and tools, you need to think about what kind of perm you want. You can get a spiral (not recommended) or a simple wave. A spiral will position the rods vertically, while a wave positions them horizontally against the head like a helmet. A wave is good for body, a spiral is good for 80s style curls. Recognize the difference.
Also, if you are just getting a perm for volume, use larger rods. It will take less effort to blowout wavy hair than it will curly hair.
If you plan on wearing it curly often, spare yourself helmet head by asking her to alternate medium and medium-large rods. This creates an uneven curl that looks more natural and has more movement than one size rod induced helmet head. It's also good to part your hair along your natural part when getting a perm and not down the center. Following what your hair does normally will keep the curls from looking off kilter.
Lastly, if you have bangs, you may want to consider not perming them. Fringes bear the brunt of perm damage, and can be left looking fried and frizzy. Just ask your stylist not to roll them up and then run the cotton over the top of them to protect them from the chemical.
Avoid Color If you have colored hair, a perm will destroy your hair. If your hair is dyed lighter, a perm will turn your caramel highlights platinum like some sort of deranged alchemist. Tell your stylist that your hair is colored to avoid excess damage. I haven't colored my hair in about a year so I should be fine.
The bottom line with a perm is that before and after you need to be extra loving to your locks. You can't get a perm on Wednesday and start flat ironing on Thursday. Pull your hair into a pretty curly updo for a few days and let it rest. Avoid chlorine and drying hair products for awhile as well. Permed hair is damaged hair, so treat it with a little TLC.
Where to Go for a Perm I'm trying a new place tomorrow: PR at Partners. I've heard that the staff is competent, so I'm not worried about a massive screw up. I had a perm at Salon Cielo years ago, and it turned out fine. I also had one at Andre Chreky which was an unqualified nightmare. Let me explain.
The stylist who did the actual perm was fine, no issue there. But when she was done, they sent the blonde, Ukrainian-speaks little English, receptionist to style me. She did not have an effing clue what she was doing. How do I know? Only a f***ing idiot would attempt to brush out a perm. That's right, she tried to style it with a boar bristled brush.
After I recovered from my initial shock, I told her to take her hands off of my hair in no uncertain terms. I then asked for a cuff diffuser, a comb and some pomade. I then styled it myself. When I went to the manager to complain (loudly), I was told that my perm didn't include a style anyway so I should have been grateful that they even sent someone to help me. I told the man that I was sorry to hear that, but that I would never visit the salon again and would counsel every person I had recommended in the past to switch to St. Germain. I did, they did, and we're all much happier.
If you're thinking about getting a perm, call the salon and ask a lot of questions. Do they do perms (some don't)? What is the price? How long has this stylist been working in the business? How many perms does she do a month? What kind of perm products do they use? (Aveda and others use an herbal product that is better for the hair.) Does the price include a cut or style?
Cut it Up Lastly, I always schedule a trim for about a week or two after a perm. It's essential to cleaning up the dry, damaged ends. I also ask for a conditioning treatment at the same time. This helps alleviate some of the damage and returns life back to newly permed hair.
Though I fully expect that Teri at St. Germain will have an earful for me about perming my hair, she's very anti-perm. But what can I say? I like big Texas Hair and I cannot lie.

Reviews of Foxtons Guildford
Customers have rated our service at Foxtons Guildford as 4.9/5, based on 21 rated reviews.
Excellent service. Deserves a promotion!
We moved from a flat to a detached house and made it happen by great help from Foxtons and particularly Michael of Guildford office. He regularly (usually weekly and sometimes more frequently) tracked the entire process with all involved parties, from us (as purchasers), vendors, other agents and solicitors for making sure that process never pauses. He acted very quickly in resolving problems in a few occasions during the process. His other colleagues, Ryan and Aidan also played their role in their own positions. Great Service, excellent communications, quick and efficient act; thanks to you all guys!
Great service from Phoebe and Ryan. Both took time to educate me about the Guildford market from a lettings/investor standpoint. It was great to have their perspective and their boss Mike made time on a busy Saturday to show my husband some properties at quite short notice. Good all round customer service. In the end we didn't invest in Guildford but will definitely come back to Foxtons if we decide to in the future.
Excellent service from Elliot. I am a student looking for a house for the next academic year. Enquired in November when no houses were available. Elliot has got back to me every month since with an update. Much appreciated.
Although we ultimately bought elsewhere, we would like to say how impressed we were with James, who was helpful, professional and efficient. We particularly liked the welcome we received at Foxtons, and the consistency of interest we received from James.
I want to express my appreciation of Ben's outstanding service in trying to find me a rental property. Ben listened to my needs (so often overlooked in sales ) and suggested ideas. Showed me properties without pressure or stress even though I had just arrived back to UK from overseas and was learning the areas, also was not in a big rush to find somewhere. Again great service, thank you.
Ryan and James thank you very much for all of your help and assistance with the sale of our house! We couldn't be happier! A few bumps in the road with the first sale falling through but handled very well by yourselves and the team!
I've just completed the sale of my house through Foxtons Guildford and I'd like to highlight how well the whole process was handled by Michael and James. Both worked tirelessly through some fairly testing situations to get the transaction over the line. Through their work, the property sold at what I believe to be the absolute optimum price in the marketplace, and then always remained committed to making the transaction happen in the quickest possible time. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend both to others looking to sell their property through Foxtons Guildford.
Greg & Ryan guided my property sale through a tough market. Their attitude and approach exceeded expectations and their balance of buyer and vendor needs was beyond reproach. Thank you both
I would like to thank Tom for his amazing job. He has been very helpful in my house hunt. He was always on hand when I needed advice. A real pleasure to speak with him. If in the future I need to rent a property or rent out one I will definitely come back to Foxtons for his help. Many thanks Tom
It has been our pleasure to deal with Tim.Tim has been extremely pro-active and professional whilst marketing our property. He has proven to be tenacious and very able to conclude an appropriate deal which works well for both parties
My contact was Ben in your Guildford office. He has been exceptional in his help and support. I have dealt with many estate agents over the last couple of months and he had stood out.
I should like most warmly to congratulate Aidan Humphries of the Guildford office for his kindness, professionalism, his dogged determinism in chasing up solicitors, and his constantly updating us regarding the state of play. If there were such a thing as an 'estate agent of the year' award I would have no hesitation in recommending Aidan as its recipient.
James took on our remit to find a house suitable for students in Guildford as our daughter is studying there and went out of his way to show us the range of what was available and to discuss how we might approach our quest. He was also willing to take our daughter around to see selected properties and it is only our sadness, that in the end we were not able on this occasion to make an offer on one of the properties he showed us. He is an excellent ambassador for your company and was able to show great client sensitivity and instil confidence, he answered questions sensitively and was not at all pushy.
Very Efficient!
I rent houses from Tim and his service is very good. Thank you Tim!
Aidan made our flat buying experience a really smooth process. He was attentive, ingenuous and highly professional. We felt a real personal commitment from him and his response time to our problems getting solicitors to talk to each other was exemplary. He is a real credit to Foxtons, a truly likeable guy, and we wish him every success in his career.
Last Friday we turned up unplanned in your office looking for a two bedroom flat in the area of Guildford of which we are unfamiliar. The lady on reception efficiently checked our details and settled us comfortably at the front of the office with coffees. A great touch. We were swiftly introduced to Elliot who quickly ascertained our needs and within a very short space of time had organised two visits to possible properties. Elliot escorted us to both (one in his car)and was not only well informed but courteous and professional at all times. We learnt that Elliot had been working for Foxtons for only a short period and I would like to congratulate you on both your selection of a great employee but also the obvious excellent level of training that you extend to all front of house staff. We received an excellent level of service from Elliot and Foxtons generally. Thank you.
I just wanted to mention the agent who dealt with us - Elliot - as he did a superb job. He was always available on the phone, nothing seemed like too much trouble, answered questions thoroughly, and quickly arranged some suitable viewings. He also dropped us home after our viewing, which was a nice touch.
I just thought I should let you know that I really appreciate your staff's professionalism and help. I've used your services previously and I'm currently in talks with Tom - although I haven't found anything yet, I still think Foxtons agents are the most professional and reliable people I've come across when dealing with estate agents.
We recently rented a property from Foxtons and he was extremely polite, helpful, willing and a great representative for Foxtons.
If there is any chance you could pass this email on to the Guildford Branch as I would love for his manager to understand just how painfree Harvey made the process for us, and I genuinely believe that he is an asset to the company and if you did employee of the month, I would most certainly recommend him to be up for that reward.
Thanks again to Harvey for all of his help & hard work!
A special mention for Tom. Very professional, courteous and knowledgeable. A bright young man who is a credit to Foxtons. Thank you.
I am writing to let you know how much my family and I appreciate the outstanding customer service that Tom provided last week for us.
He was very helpful and very knowledgeable about all the properties he showed us and he took the time to listen and answer all my questions about the properties.
Tom seemed very interested in helping us find the perfect house to let.
We have met many letting agents before but Tom is among the finest we have seen, he is most definitely an asset to the company. I will have no problem recommending that anyone wishing to buy, sell or rent to contact your office and be assured of brilliant service.
We moved to Guilford from Italy, and arranged everything from Italy. We were extremely lucky that Tom handled our rent. He has been our saving grace. Any time we had a problem or wanted some advice, we walked to his office and the problem was solved.
Just wanted to say that we have twice now had excellent service from Phoebe at the Guildford office… She really was great - polite, friendly and helpful - an asset to your team.
I'm writing to provide some feedback on David who helped me find a house recently.
From when I first met David at Foxtons in Guildford until the completion of my house purchase, David provided consistently outstanding support and advice.
David quickly learned about the sorts of houses I was looking for; he worked hard to find suitable properties, and was flexible fitting into my schedule to arrange viewings.
Since I had not owned a property in the UK previously and had recently returned from living abroad, David provided very helpful advice about the housing market, the sale and purchase process, etc. and he was always willing to answer any questions I had.
Once we had identified a house, again David was extremely helpful advising me on the process, suggesting solicitors I could use, helping to broker things between the seller and I, and he worked proactively to try to move the process forward as quickly as possible.
Throughout the process, David's positive, proactive and helpful mind-set was outstanding. It was a pleasure dealing with him, and I found him a model as an estate agent and in terms of his customer service.
Ryan is a fine ambassador for your company and also for the estate agent industry in general; very polite, helpful and also very knowledgeable. 5/5, top marks!
The team at Foxtons Guildford & Woking are complete professionals. This is the second unusual property they have sold for us in the last eight years, when others just failed. They are responsive, supportive, truthful and encouraging when the going gets tough and frustrating. We would absolutely recommend their very professional services. Thank you all at both branches of Foxtons.
I would like to put on record that we very much appreciated James' contribution to our purchase of number 16 on which we exchanged last Friday. James was regularly in contact to help with accelerating the overall process and ensuring that everyone worked towards a common deadline. Without James' approach we would not have exchanged last week. So thanks to James and also we have enjoyed liaising with him.
Tom is very professional and hardworking, the best agent I dealt with in Guildford. He delivered on all our requirements, was always very helpful, polite and friendly. I would highly recommend Tom and have no doubt he has a very successful career ahead of him, he's a credit to your company.
Anna and I would like to say how happy we are with David who helped us with the sale of our property and that he really is a credit to Foxtons and your industry as a whole.We feel David is highly professional and from the outset he made it his priority to visit the house prior to carrying out the viewing so that he was fully aware when presenting the property which, we believe, made a huge difference to the buyers.It is people like David that make selling a property so much easier than it can, sometimes, be and we are very glad to have instructed Foxtons Guildford to sell our property!
We cannot praise manager Tim and his team at Foxtons Guildford highly enough. They recently sold our house in a period of 9 weeks from start to completion, with well over 20 viewings and 3 offers. Their marketing skills of the property were excellent. They combined just the right amount of professionalism with approachability and we would highly recommend the Guildford team and special thanks to Tim, Chris, James, Nick and Ellie.
Mrs Marlyn
I just wanted to show my appreciation for your team member Tom. Although he couldn't help me find a house in my time-scale, I have to rate his service and commitment as excellent and he deserves a mention.

Alright, I was so freaking psyched at the beginning of this year. I had my bike, the 87' Panasonic DX-6000 in my signature. I love that bike, I still do. But it spends it's time hanging on my wall. I've ridden it once in the past like 2 months. I bought the frame, built the wheels, I assembled the whole bike. It was one of the best learning experiences of my life, and really hammered in, and proved to me, my love for bicycles is more than just a phase. Later in the year, I bought my Surly Long Haul Trucker brand new. That bike on the other hand gets ridden 8 miles daily to and from work. I've ridden to work 61 days in a row as of today, 488 miles or so. This season all together I've logged probably over 1,000 miles. That's insane to everyone who isn't into cycling, but it's nothing like I wanted to get. My goal for the year was 5,000 miles or more. Probably a serious long shot this being my first serious year in the sport. So, perhaps I did well for my first season. But part of me feels like I've let myself down. I was losing weight, feeling amazing, I did ~100 miles a week for a month or two early in the season.
Then I crashed, literally. I somehow did an endo riding my Paansonic to work one day. That was actually my second crash of the year, but the first one that kept me off the bike. No major damage to me or the bike. I had to replace the bar tape, and clean off some of the blood from the serious hand road rash I got (I wasn't wearing gloves at the time). But, it took me probably two months to retape the bars. The bike was dusty at that point. I'd put back on some weight, and I know my legs lost some of their "oomph". I've ridden the bike 3 times since that incident. The last was the most positive, I remembered what I loved about that bike, and riding recreationally, but that was still only a ride to work.
If I put my cycling shorts back on, and went for a ride, I'd be fine probably and wouldn't think anything of it. I guess I'm just afraid to. And the season's drawing to a close soon. Maybe I'll get some in. Maybe not. But I feel bad for my bike, and the goals that I had. I wanted to do the Bridge to Bridge that happened yesterday. I was at home, not on my bike. Though I did have a major urge to go riding.
Another thing, I think, that really hurt me this year.
The death of a truly good friend, and a burgeoning riding partner.
I had a friend who was going to buy the Raleigh Grand Prix (also in my sig) that I rode a little. We rode quite a few times. Him and I did a solo of 30 miles. It was great. Then, I don't know... I lost him. He took his own life for some god-forsaken reason... I had been wanting a partner all year... And him and I were better friends than we'd ever been... I think this had the biggest effect on my year.
I'm not sure what I'm really trying to convey here. I think I'm just trying to get my feelings out there to people who understand. It just hurts me to know that I let myself down like that and that I lost so much in it all. Anyone else have a similar thing? Any support or anything?
Thanks for reading... sorry it was kinda long winded.

I love riding bikes, and bicycles are also one of my favorite subjects to shoot. I really like the challenge of trying to capture the feeling of a bike in a photo. Older bicycles and single speeds are a particular weakness of mine.
You can see all my bicycle shots over on Zooomr.

Sexual Harassment Resources
- Sexual harassment is an exercise of power. Sexual harassment is used to diminish a woman's(1) worth, to discount her work capabilities, and to view her as a sex object.
- Sexual harassment is unwanted sexual attention experienced at work. Sexual harassment can range from verbal comments, leering, pinching, and patting, to pressure or demands to engage in sexual activity. It may take many different forms, from pinup pictures to violent sexual assault.
- The sexual harasser could be an employer, supervisor, subordinate, coworker, client, customer, or vendor. The harasser could be male or female, and of the same or opposite sex.
- Unwanted sexual demands will cause the harassed employee to suffer anxiety. The harassment may also undermine the employee's work and lead to poor work assignments, sarcasm, rejection, isolation, unsatisfactory job evaluations, demotions, transfers, denial of raises, benefits, or promotions, dismissal and/ or a poor job reference.
- Ignoring sexual harassment is not an advisable strategy. The harassment may escalate.
1. Use of the feminine pronoun in this pamphlet shall also include the masculine; the authors acknowledge that harassers and those harassed are male as well as female.
On September 23, 1980, the Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Commission adopted the final guidelines on sexual harassment. Harassment on the basis of sex is a violation of Sec. 703 of Title Vll of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 (_ 1604.11). Title Vll states,
"Unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature constitute sexual harassment when: (1) submission to such conduct is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual's employment; (2) submission to or rejection of such conduct by an individual is used as the basis for employment decisions affecting such individual; or (3) such conduct has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile, or offensive working environment..."
"...An employer, employment agency, joint apprenticeship committee or labor organization (hereinafter collectively referred to as "employer") is responsible for its acts and those of its agents and supervisory employees with respect to sexual harassment regardless of whether the specific acts complained of were authorized or even forbidden by the employer and regardless of whether the employer knew or should have known of their occurrence..."
"...With respect to conduct between fellow employees, an employer is responsible for acts of sexual harassment in the workplace where the employer knows or should have known of the conduct, unless it can show that it took immediate and appropriate corrective action..."
"...An employer may also be responsible for the acts of nonemployees, with respect to sexual harassment of employees in the workplace, where the employer knows or should have known of the conduct and fails to take immediate and appropriate corrective action..."
There are two forms of sexual harassment recognized by the courts: quid pro quo and hostile environment. Quid pro quo harassment occurs when submission to sexual conduct is made a condition of employment benefits. Hostile work environment sexual harassment occurs when the sexually harassing conduct is so severe or pervasive as to create a hostile, intimidating, offensive work environment.
- Have you been subjected to unwanted sexual comments, jokes, innuendoes or gestures?
- Are you pinched, patted, or touched in a sexually offensive manner without your consent?
- Are you offered promises of a promotion if you perform a sexual favor?
- Are you considered humorless because you don't laugh at sexual jokes?
- Do you receive explicit requests to disrobe?
- Are you required to wear sexually revealing uniforms in order to keep your job?
- Are you called "baby", "sexy", "honey", etc., and feel uncomfortable?
- Do you receive unwelcome, offensive telephone calls at home or at work?
- Are you exposed to sexually suggestive pictures or pinups at work?
- Have you personally witnessed the sexual harassment of others in your immediate work environment?
- If you have complained about being sexually harassed, have you been involuntarily transferred to another location or otherwise treated in a fashion you consider retaliatory?
- Are you experiencing any notable changes in your work environment due to your refusal to comply with the harasser's sexual demands?
- Has your refusal to comply with the sexual harasser's demands resulted in racist remarks or discrimination based on race, ethnicity or sexual orientation?
- Are you being sexually taunted because of your actual or perceived sexual orientation?
If you answered "yes" to any of the above questions, you may be a victim of sexual harassment. You can take action, and there are people and organizations available to assist you.
- People who have been sexually harassed experience many different feelings including anger, humiliation, anxiety, guilt and/or depression. Your feelings are important.
- Trust your feelings. If you are being sexually harassed, the first step is to take yourself seriously. Remember, you do have options.
- Some forms of sexual harassment may encompass stereotypes about lesbians or people of color. Keep in mind that harassment based on such stereotypes may still be a form of sexual harassment.
- It's okay to feel angry. Use your anger constructively to develop a strategy to help remedy your situation.
- Take one step at a time. It's easy to feel overwhelmed.
- If you are frightened by your harasser's possible actions, take those feelings seriously. Do not ignore these feelings. If you feel threatened, you need to take action.
- If you are feeling emotionally distressed, it may help to talk about your feelings. Seek emotional support and validation, as well as feedback from people you trust. Talking to a friend or a counselor might help you figure out what options you have and what you need to do for yourself.
- It is common to experience physical symptoms caused by harassment such as headaches, loss of appetite, gastrointestinal disorders, weight loss or gain, inability to sleep, and crying spells. Take care of yourself and seek medical attention if necessary.
- Find out what resources exist in your area. Call your local Women's Commission, your union or other advocacy organizations in your area. (See Resource List)
At the First Sign of Sexual Harassment You Should:
Document incidents with dates, places, times, names and quotes. Indicate whether there were any witnesses.
Describe all physical or emotional stress which you experienced as a result of the harassment.
Document your response, if any, to the harassment.
Confide in Trustworthy Coworkers
Talk with coworkers. They may be supportive and may have experienced sexual harassment as well perhaps from the same harasser.
Ask witnesses to write statements on your behalf. Witnesses are extremely important when filing a complaint.
Talk to the Harasser
If you can, clearly and firmly tell the harasser you are not interested in any sexual offers or listening to any more sexual remarks. Let him know that you will take further action if the behavior does not stop.
Follow up with a memo summarizing the conversation. Hand deliver or mail the memo "registered receipt" to the harasser with a witness present, if possible. Keep a copy for your files.
If you cannot talk to the harasser, write him a letter and hand it to him in the presence of a witness.
Use the Grievance Procedure
Find out whether your company has a Sexual Harassment Counselor or an Affirmative Action Officer.
Give the appropriate manager your documentation. If you are not satisfied with the response, take your complaint to top management.
Indicate all attempts you have made to stop the harassment. Document all the incidents, including memos written to the harasser and coworkers' statements on your behalf. Write down the names of all supervisors you have talked to and what their actions were ALWAYS include NAMES, DATES and TIMES.
Talk To Your Union
If you are a member of a union, ask your union representative for support. The union may be able to act on your behalf.
File A Complaint
It is advisable to first inform your employer of the sexual harassment before filing a formal complaint outside of your company so that they have an opportunity to remedy the situation. (2)
If your employer does not take satisfactory action to stop the harassment, file a complaint with the appropriate government agency. (See Resources Section)
- Be Sure To File Your Complaint Within The Time Limits!
- You can withdraw your complaint at any time if the matter has been resolved informally, but you will be unable to bring a formal complaint if you miss the deadlines for filing. Filing a complaint early will allow you to keep your options open, including the right to sue. State guidelines for filing may vary; check with your local jurisdiction.
- To file a complaint with the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing, you must file within one year of the latest incident.
- To file a complaint with the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission in California, you must file within 300 days from the latest incident.
- You may also file a civil lawsuit in the state or federal courts. However, in order to file a lawsuit, you must first get a "right to sue letter" from the Department of Fair Employment and Housing or the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. You should not request a "right to sue letter" unless you have already retained a lawyer and are ready to file in court because the time deadline for filing a lawsuit begins on the date you receive the "right to sue letter." Also, once a "right to sue letter" is issued, the administrative agency will no longer do any investigation in your case. (See Resource Section for legal assistance.
2. Sexual harassment complainants have lost in court because their employer was not given the opportunity to remedy the situation. Such prior notification is not, however, always required.
At the first sign of sexual harassment:
- Take all incidents seriously. All complaints must be addressed. The complainant's charges should be received without making immediate judgements.
- Document the complaint with dates, times, places, names and quotes (even if you are not the immediate supervisor).
- After hearing the complainant's story, repeat relevant facts so that the complainant can correct any mistakes and can be assured that the incident has been understood properly. Ask the complainant if there is anything that you forgot to ask or they wish to include.
- Discuss alternatives with the complainant. Tell the complainant how and when you intend to follow up with the complaint and thank them for coming forward.
- If appropriate, explore the possibility of moving the alleged harasser out of the complainant's work site. The complainant however, should not be involuntarily transferred.
- Report the information to the appropriate manager, sexual harassment counselor or EEO officer.
Investigate the complaint:
- The appropriate manager or sexual harassment committee member must meet with the alleged harasser and any identified or possible witnesses.
- Document the meeting. Make it clear that harassment and retaliation of any kind will not be tolerated and can expose the employer and the harasser to legal liability.
Final action:
- If the appropriate manager determines sexual harassment has occurred, the company must take immediate, appropriate corrective action in the following forms: an order to STOP; a warning that violations will be punished; a verbal or written reprimand; suspension with or without pay; and/or discharge.
- At this time, it is advisable to reissue the company's sexual harassment policy and conduct sexual harassment training for all employees.
Be aware:
- Employees have the right to file a charge of discrimination with local, state and/or federal government agencies, or to file a civil lawsuit.
- It is to the employer's advantage to handle the complaint internally before it further escalates into a formal proceeding. Sensitivity and timeliness are essential in handling complaints effectively.
- It is important for the employer to follow up after the complaint has been handled to ensure that the harassment has stopped and there are no retaliatory actions taken against the complainant.
- Reporting sexual harassment is often a very difficult experience. Be aware that recipients may not be able to recognize the incident as one of sexual harassment until after a considerable amount of time has passed.
- Know the laws: Title Vll of the Civil Rights Act of 1964; the Fair Employment and Housing Act; and the San Francisco Ordinance on Sexual Harassment.
- Know what constitutes sexual harassment.
- Establish a sexual harassment policy and training for your employees.
- Let your employees know that you will not tolerate sexual harassment in the workplace. Demonstrate your commitment by taking immediate action when appropriate.
- Post the sexual harassment policy in a prominent place and distribute the policy to your employees.
- Consider your employees' suggestions when developing the policy.
- Publicize and provide ongoing training on sexual harassment.
- Provide open channels for communication to allow individuals to report complaints of sexual harassment on a confidential basis.
- Investigate thoroughly and resolve promptly all complaints of sexual harassment, even if they were not brought pursuant to established procedures.
California law imposes an affirmative duty on employers to "take all reasonable steps to prevent harassment from occurring." (Cal. Govt. Code _ 12940 (h) ). The best way to minimize the incidence of sexual harassment is to have a program designed to discourage harassment. Employer benefits will include a more productive workplace, avoidance or minimization of employer liability and co$t to business and protection for future sexual harassment victims.
*Be aware! Some forms of sexual harassment may encompass sexual stereotypes about sexual orientation and/or people of color. Any comprehensive training must incorporate education on this aspect of sexual harassment.
*Be aware! You may be responsible for the actions of all your supervisors, employees, clients, customers and vendors who may engage in sexual harassment.
A Sample Sexual Harassment Policy(3) Name of Company recognizes and reaffirms its policy of providing equal employment opportunity to all qualified persons, and reaffirms its commitment that there shall be no discrimination against qualified applicants or employees on the basis of race, sex, color, national origin, religion, age, sexual orientation, disability, or veteran's status. It is also the policy of Name of Company that sexual harassment is unacceptable and will not be tolerated. Any management employee that believes that sexual harassment may be occurring is required to report the conduct to the appropriate human resources officer or other management employee. Sexual harassment includes, but is not limited to:
1. Making unsolicited and unwelcome written, verbal, physical, and/ or visual contact with sexual overtones. (Written examples: suggestive or obscene letters, notes, invitations. Verbal examples: derogatory comments, slurs, jokes, epithets, including conduct or comments consistently directed at only one gender even if the content is not sexual. Physical examples: assault, touching, impeding or blocking movement. Visual examples: leering, gestures, display of sexually suggestive objects or pictures, cartoons, posters and magazines.)
2. Continuing to express sexual interest after being informed that the interest is unwelcome. (Reciprocal attraction is not considered sexual harassment.)
3. Making reprisals, threats of reprisal, or implied threats of reprisal following a negative response. For example, either implying or actually witholding support for an appointment, promotion, or change of assignment, or suggesting that a poor performance report will be given.
4. Engaging in implicit or explicit coercive sexual behavior which is used to control, influence, or affect the career, salary, and/or work environment of another employee.
5. Offering favors or employment benefits, such as promotions, favorable performance evaluations. preferential duty or shift assignments, recommendations, reclassifications, etc., in exchange for sexual favors.
3.Sections of this sample policy were taken from " Sexual Harassment: Managing Ambiguity and Conflict", by Barry M. Shapiro and The Bar Association of San Francisco's " Sexual Harassment Policy Guidelines.
This policy applies to all phases of the employment relationship, including recruiting, testing, hiring, upgrading, promotion/demotion, transfer, layoff, termination, rates of pay, benefits and selection for training.
Moreover, it is the stated policy of Name of Company to prevent and prohibit misconduct on the job, including sexual harassment or any other type of employee harassment by coworkers, subordinate employees, nonemployees, or supervisors. Any employee found to have acted in violation of the foregoing policies shall be subject to appropriate disciplinary action, including warnings, reprimands, suspension and/ or discharge.
All complaints of sexual harassment shall be directed to a member of the Sexual Harassment Committee and shall be handled confidentially to the maximum extent possible. The Committee has full responsibility to receive, investigate and resolve complaints involving violations of the policies stated herein, and to recommend to management the imposition of appropriate sanctions against violators. The individuals listed below are hereby designated as Name of Company's Sexual Harassment Committee.(4)
Member A, Member B, Member C
An individual also may choose to report the complaint to his/her su pervisor or any member of management. (Note that a supervisor who has not had special training in dealing with sexual harassment complaints is strongly encouraged to consult a trained member of the Sexual Harassment Committee before taking action.) If the supervisor successfully resolves the complaint in an informal manner to the ccomplaints' satisfaction, the supervisor must file a confidential report to Management or Designated Individual about the complaint and reso lution so that the employer will be aware of any pattern of harassment by a particular individual and of all complaints of sexual harassment or an employerwide basis. If the supervisor does not successfully resolve the complaint in an informal manner, a written report must be made to Personnel Director within .. one work day.
In determining whether sexual harassment has occurred, the standard to be applied is that of the victim, so long as this perspective is reasonable for a person of the same gender under similar circumstances. It is no defense to a claim of sexual harassment that the alleged harasser did not intend to harass.
4.The employer should designate a group of individuals comprised of both genders, a variety of age groups, job positions, ethnic backgrounds, and levels of seniority.
Retaliation Against Any Person Who Files A Formal Charge Or Complaint Of Harassment Is Prohibited And Is Grounds For Discipline Up To And Including Termination.
Name of company will also establish yearly training sessions on handling sexual harassment complaints for all supervisors and managers, and conduct separate training sessions for subordinate employees concerning their rights under Title Vll of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. This policy statement shall be distributed to all management and employees and will be posted in areas where all employees will have the opportunity to freely review it.
In accordance with the California Department of Fair Employment and Housing requirements, a copy of an informational pamphlet and " Discrimination/ Harassment Poster" will he posted at all work sites.
Federal Cases
Meritor Savings Bank v. Vinson, 477 U.S. 67,106 S. Ct.2399 (1986). The United States Supreme Court states that sexual harassment is actionable under Title Vll and that an employer may be liable for sexual harassment even when the victim suffers no tangible or economic loss. An employer may be liable where sexual harassment is so severe or pervasive that it creates a hostile or abusive work environment.
Intlekofer v. Turnage, 973 F.2nd 773 {9th Cir. 1992) The Ninth Circuit held that employers are required under Title Vll to take steps, including disciplinary action against a harasser, to ensure a prompt and effective end to workplace sexual harassment. If the action taken by the employer to correct the harassing behavior is untimely and/or ineffec tive, the employer may be held liable.
Ellison v. Brady, 924 F.2d 872 (9th Cir. 1991). In this case, a female employee received strange love letters from a male coworker who repeatedly asked her to go to lunch or for a drink. The Ninth Circuit held that the severity and pervasiveness of sexual harassment should be evaluated from the point of view of a "reasonable woman." Where a "reasonable woman" would consider the conduct sufficiently severe to create an abusive working environment, a violation of Title Vll has occurred.
Priest v. Rotary, 98 F.R.D. 755 (1983). The court held that an employer accused of sexual harassment was barred from inquiring into the complainant's sexual history, including the name of each person with whom she had sexual relations in the past ten years.
Miller v. Bank of America, 600 F.2d 211 (9th Cir. 1979). In this case, a male supervisory employee fired a female subordinate employee after she refused his demand for sexual favors. The Ninth Circuit held that the employer could be liable for such actions by the supervisor even though the employer had a Policy against such behavior. .
California Cases
Vinson v. Superior Court, 43 Cal.3d 833,740 P.2d 404,239 Cal.Rptr. 292 (1987). The court stated that a mental examination of the complainant is not justified where the complainant is not seeking mental or emotional damages but simply compensation for enduring an oppressive work environment. In any case, the employer may not inquire into the comnlainant's past sexual history and practices.
Fisher v. San Pedro Hospital, 214 Cal.App.3d 590, 262 Cal. Rptr. 842 {1 1989. Similar to federal case law,California prohibits sexual harassment resulting from an offensive or hostile work environment, even if the complainant suffers no tangible job detriment.
Rojo v. Kliger, 52 Cal.3d 65 (1990). The California Supreme Court recognizes that sexual harassment, whether public or private, raises a claim under the public policy of the State of California. Complainants need not resort to the Department of Fair Employment and Housing.
