I went shopping for a new cool max/dry fit/whatever running shirt.
I am 5'4" and weigh 160 lbs. So I am over weight. I do not want a shirt that clings to me. Bad enough the rolls are there without having to show them to the world.
All I wanted was a womans shirt with a v neck in some color other than white. White shirts tend to get see through when they are sweaty and wet.
I bought and brought home one XL shirt in every style the store had. Only one had a vneck. A total of 7 shirts, all different brands.
Of those 7, only one shirt actually fits.
At least it is blue.
Looks like I am back to shopping in the men's department and having the sleeves be hanging over my elbows.
My wife is a runner and she is not a little woman at 5' 8" and 180. I wanted to buy her some special tights for Christmas (the ones with the bands of support that cris-cross the legs and glutes. They came in women's small, medium and large. The large were too small for her, and I hate to ask her to wear men's. So we have $100.00 store credit, but no fancy tights.
We feel your pain.
Just because you started late, doesn't mean you have to finish last.[/URL" target="_blank">
Sizing is the result of cheapness. Target is bad about that. Everything there I have to buy two sizes larger than normal.
When being chased by a bear. You don't have to outrun the bear. You just have to outrun the other guy.
I'm in the same boat, Patty. I don't want one of those shirts that looks like it has been painted onto my body! Geez!
I have the same problem with jackets in the winter. The women's jackets are TINY! And they only fall to the top of the hips! I really want it to cover my butt and be a little loose in the body, but to get that I have to get men's jackets and hold the sleeves up with rubber bands!
None of the shirts I brought home on trial were cheap. They wer Nike, Asics, Moving Comfort etc.
A note...My daughter had on her husband's Body Armour*** cool gear shirt yesterday. It was a men's medium and it fit her well. The sleeves (short) were not too long on her.
Daghter is not a small girl either. 5'6" and wears a bigger shirt size than I do.
** I may have it described wrong. The Body Armour shirt was theone designed to be worn in hot weather. They have shirts that fit more snuggly that you wear wehn it is cold outside.
A second observation...I bought a Moving Comfort long sleeve shirt from the sale rack. The tag said it was a 1X. The little hang tag said they make shirts in 1X-3X. Maybe I need to check out the web site.
[http://This message has been edited by pmcneb (edited Apr-10-2007).|http://This message has been edited by pmcneb (edited Apr-10-2007).]
Moving Comfort does offer a shirt in larger women's sizes.
http://www.movingcomfort.com/Product/spring_perform_006.html[/URL" target="_blank">
unfortunately, you cannot order directly form their site. You would have to find it at one of the listed sites that carry their items.
I'm surprised you had that problem!
Did you go to a running specialty store?
I'm 5'3.5 and 160 lb, and L seems to fit quite well. Definately not clingy.
I do hate how the shorts are all changed sizes. Sometimes Medium, sometimes large. Have to try everything on!
Don't know. Maybe it is an age issue - I'm 51...maybe it is a 4 kid stretched out belly issue. I am definitely an apple shape.
I have been wearing the same stuff for two years (and 70 pounds ago) and all of it is to big. I am so cheap, I keep wearing the same things over and over. I don't know what size I would be at this point! I guess I really never care that it's hanging on me like a tent! I will have to buy some things soon though....they are starting to look like rags!
After losing 70 pounds (way to go!) I would be buying out the stores.....
I have been clothes shopping (b/c I had too!) but I just don't buy exercise stuff......I should though. I will have to hit the sales racks I guess.

Lambda calls Sina Queyras 'a poet to read and reckon with'
'Expressway is Queyras's fourth collection of poetry following her 2006 Lambda Literary Award-winning collection, Lemon Hound. Lemon Hound is a tour de force; it meditates in particular on the work of Virginia Woolf and Gertrude Stein through playful and soulful responses to the work of both writers. Lemon Hound is both lyrical and political, feminist and literary, lesbian and human; it is to me one of the best books of poetry by a lesbian in the first decade of this century. Expressway is a different type of project than Lemon Hound, though both are shaped by an inquisitive and obsessive mind attending to the contemporary world. ...
Queyras's poetry is deeply political, but Queyras has multiple engagements, which is what makes her work exciting. She explores expressways as a trope for progress and for United States hegemony and brings her poetic eye to a series of fatal car accidents across the United States. These are images and ideas that a reader expects from the title, but Queyras is adept equally at dwelling in the pastoral of Dorothy Wordsworth. Eclectic engagements characterize Queyras's work, but any suggestion of characterization of her work immediately brings a morphing to something new, intelligent, and provocative.
The sounds of Expressway are striking. Queyras captures in language what has become the white noise of our transportation and media background. Queyras's attention to sound, form, image, and language in her poetry is keen; the result of this attention to the art and craft of poetry and of her expansive, penetrating mind makes Expressway another powerful collection of poetry. In short, Sina Queyras is a poet to read and reckon with.'

There's no doubt that once again the brethren of the Iglesia Ni Cristo (Church Of Christ) show it's oneness on Facebook. There is an app on Facebook called Causes that allows you to start a cause and recruit friends into it. On Monday morning I started a cause with a title "Tell The World About Iglesia Ni Cristo," which aims to spread the word about Iglesia Ni Cristo and share the word of salvation. About two days after, the cause has garnered 5,100 plus recruits or members, and counting. That's an amazing number for only nearly two days. This has happened because our hearts are all united with the same purpose. I'm really blessed and thankful that I belong to the Iglesia Ni Cristo. I will do my very best to tell everyone about this great Church built by Christ.

Disciplinary Committee hearings currently involve four students (chosen case-by-case from the Disciplinary Committee group of 16) and four designated faculty members with a dean as Chair. Self-nominating students are selected by their classmates through popular vote in their junior spring and the candidates reviewed by the deans prior to confirmation. As of now, students on the DC convene only when called for hearings and typically only to consider suspension-worthy cases.
Based on observation and feedback from the DC, Student Council proposes:
1) Have a DC composed of juniors and seniors. Hold 2 rounds of elections per class—elect 4 members at the end of their sophomore year to observe that spring term & serve the following year, and then hold elections for the other 12 members in junior spring. Pre-existing DC members would look over the candidates with the deans.
2) Once the full class panel has been chosen, designate a student Chair and Vice-chair from within the group. Anyone interested in running for either of those two positions would go in with the understanding that they are precluded from proctorship.
3) Maintain the ratio of 4 students: 4 faculty but install the student Chair in the dean's place.
4) Institute weekly leadership training exercises (on Sundays) to be run by the Chair and Vice-chair, mostly in the form of "case studies," even actual minor disciplinary events on campus.
The idea behind all of these points is to strengthen the student voice and really capitalize on the DC's potential for student leadership development.

Ferdinand Piech, the chairman of Volkswagen, has expressed regrets that the German automaker did not purchase the legendary Italian motorcycle enterprise, Ducati, when it was experiencing financial woes and was for sale in 1985. "I would still like a small, valuable motorcycle manufacturer," says the Ducati-riding 71-year-old chairman.
It's a wonder what types of motorcycle designs VW could produce, given the close relationship that Volkswagen has with Porsche. Porsche helped design Harley-Davidson's Revolution engine, which first appeared in the V-Rod. Piech apparently rides a 180 hp Ducati to get his kicks.

If on a winter's night a traveler
by Italo Calvino
Silas Flannery
Character Analysis
The Sellout
Flannery is an aging writer who has figured out a very successful formula for creating best-selling detective books. Just one problem: the formula is a little too predictable, because Ermes Marana says he can write books by Silas Flannery just by plugging the formula into a machine.
How's that for making an author feel special?
When we first hear of Flannery, we learn that he's been suffering from a major case of writer's block. He's concerned that he's too much of a sellout, creating books in which "the brands of liquor to be drunk by the characters, the tourist spots to be visited, the haute-couture creations, furnishings, gadgets […] have already been determined by contract through specialized advertising agencies" (11.24). Basically, he realizes that he's writing trash just for the money.
We're pretty sure that, as always, Calvino is trying to make a point here. What point? That art should never lower itself to such shameless concern over money, but instead, should continue to struggle in the effort to capture some sort of truth.
Dear Diary
For much of If on a winter's night a traveler, Flannery plays second fiddle. Or more like tenth fiddle. But he makes a big splash when Calvino shows you a long excerpt from his diary. Suddenly, he's one of the most interesting characters in the story. All it took was a little snoop into his private life. Who knew?
In his diary, Flannery continually speaks of a desire to develop a new relationship to his writing: not one where he can sell thousands of books just by slapping his name on garbage, but one in which he can "annul himself in order to give voice to what is outside him" (15.59). Flannery no longer wants to write within the limits of his own personality, but wishes to become a "conduit" for something beyond himself.
This dream draws closer to reality when Flannery meets a group of young boys who tell him that extraterrestrials are using him to channel secret messages. (Yeah, Calvino kind of comes out of left field on that one.) At this point, Flannery realizes that even if he were channeling something beyond himself, he'd never be aware of it. He's living in a paradox, and once again, you the Reader are totally lost in it.

Chris Ault steps down after 28 seasons coaching at Nevada.
Dec. 28, 2012
RENO, Nev. – Hall of Fame football coach Chris Ault, a pillar of the University of Nevada since his hiring in 1976, announced Friday during a press conference at Legacy Hall that he is stepping down from the program that he has been associated with as a player, coach and administrator for more than 40 years.
The winningest coach in school history with a career record of 233-109-1 in 28 seasons, Ault guided Nevada from Division II to I-AA glory in the Big Sky Conference 1980s and early 90s, into I-A and the Big West Conference in 1992 and on to the WAC and now the Mountain West Conference. Along the way, he won 10 conference championships and took the Wolf Pack to postseason play 16 times, including 10 bowl games in 12 FBS seasons. He leaves a lasting legacy of accolades and contributions to the game, perhaps none of which greater than his creation of the Pistol offense in 2005, a scheme now employed by hundreds of teams at every level of football.
"Wolf Pack football has firmly established a blueprint for success that can be sustained," Ault said.
Ault, who played quarterback at Nevada from 1965-67 and earned two degrees from the University. He was hired by his alma mater in 1976 at the age of 29, the youngest college coach in the country at the time. He would later be inducted into four different Halls of Fame, including the College Football Hall of Fame in 2002 at the age of 55. This year, Ault passed Bear Bryant to set the mark for most wins by a coach at his alma mater.
"I extend my utmost appreciation to Chris Ault for his 41 years of association with Wolf Pack Athletics and the University of Nevada, Reno," University president Marc Johnson said. "He has achieved great progress and has taken the program through four conference changes and numerous bowl-game appearances. Through his Hall of Fame induction and his innovative advancements to the game of football, Coach Ault has brought national recognition to our University and our region. Chris Ault is an impressive leader and his contributions to Wolf Pack football, Nevada Athletics, our University and our region are immeasurable."
Johnson said that he will work with Nevada athletics director Cary Groth and will act quickly to identify Nevada's next head coach through a national search.
"Chris Ault truly has been Nevada Football for more than 40 years," Groth said. "He has left an indelible footprint on not only the football program, but the University as well. His legacy is one of success, honor and tradition. There is a reason that he is in the Hall of Fame and was one of the youngest coaches ever inducted. I know I speak for the entire community in congratulating – and sincerely thanking – Coach for his honorable service to college football and our University."

Amanda Elliott of Lees-McRae College received the third annual North Carolina Campus Compact Community Impact Student Award during the Compact's Student Conference held at High Point University last. Twenty-seven college students across the state received the award for making significant, innovative contributions to their campus' efforts to address local community needs.
State Senator Vernon Malone of Wake County and the Compact's Executive Director, Dr. Lisa Keyne, presented the award to Elliott before an audience of more than 250 college students and guests representing 33 higher education institutions. President of High Point University, Dr. Nido Qubein, initiated the ceremony, emphasizing the conference's theme, "The Power is Yours."
Elliott is a senior honors student who has been a part of the Bonner Leaders Program on campus since her freshman year. She has already completed over 1,900 hours of community service, is a member of Amnesty International and Optimist International, and serves as senior class president, as well as the Senior Intern in the Community Outreach Office. In her various roles, Elliott has organized protests against human rights violations, worked on campaigns to raise awareness about hunger and homelessness and used her energy to increase the capacity and ability of the Community Outreach Office to connect volunteers and local organizations. Elliott, along with a fellow student from a service-learning class, wrote a proposal for the campus' food service about the potential benefits of using local and organic foods.
North Carolina Campus Compact is a statewide coalition of higher education presidents and chancellors established to encourage and support campus engagement in the community. For more information, contact Jamarl Clark at (336) 278-7194.

- What needs to be done to address the threat of viral hemorrhagic fevers?
Viral hemorrhagic fever (VHF) facts*
*Viral hemorrhagic fever facts by Charles Patrick Davis, MD, PhD
- Viral hemorrhagic fevers are group of illnesses caused by viruses that cause vascular damage that result in symptomatic bleeding (hemorrhage).
- Hemorrhagic fever viruses are mainly zoonotic diseases caused by viruses that usually reside in an animal or arthropod hosts that may serve as vectors.
- Viral hemorrhagic fevers are usually seen associated with only one particular of species and consequently are usually contained in geographically restricted areas; however, if the virus is introduced accidentally to humans it becomes widespread (for example, the current Ebola outbreak).
- Hemorrhagic fever viruses are usually transmitted among animal or arthropod hosts; however, the viruses carried in these animal or arthropods can be transmitted to humans when humans come in contact with the urine, feces, saliva, or other bodily fluids of infected animals or arthropods, including if the animal is killed and eaten. In some instances, once the viruses infect humans, person-to-person transmission can occur when an uninfected person comes in contact with bodily fluids or (with some viruses) a bite by an arthropod vector.
- Symptoms of viral hemorrhagic fever include fatigue, fever, weakness, dizziness, and muscle aches; patients with more severe infections show bleeding under the skin, internal organs, or even from bodily orifices like the mouth, eyes, or ears. Some patients develop severe diarrhea that may also be bloody, and severely ill patients present with shock, delirium, seizures, kidney failure, and coma that often ends in death.
- Patients with viral hemorrhagic fevers usually receive only supportive therapy; there is no other established cure for viral hemorrhagic fevers. However, ribavirin (Rebetol, Copegus) has been effective in treating some individuals with Lassa fever, and treatment with convalescent-phase plasma has been used with success in a few patients -- other experimental antiviral agents have also been tried in a few patients.
- Prevention and control of hemorrhagic fevers is difficult; except for yellow fever and Argentine hemorrhagic fever, no vaccines have been made commercially available so that prevention efforts are concentrated on avoiding contacts with the host species, vectors, or humans infected with the viruses.
- Scientists and researchers are addressing the threat of viral hemorrhagic fevers to humans by attempting to develop immunological, molecular, and containment methods to prevent these hemorrhagic fevers.
What are viral hemorrhagic fevers?
Viral hemorrhagic fevers (VHFs) refer to a group of illnesses that are caused by several distinct families of viruses. In general, the term "viral hemorrhagic fever" is used to describe a severe multisystem syndrome (multisystem in that multiple organ systems in the body are affected). Characteristically, the overall vascular system is damaged, and the body's ability to regulate itself is impaired. These symptoms are often accompanied by hemorrhage (bleeding); however, the bleeding is itself rarely life-threatening. While some types of hemorrhagic fever viruses can cause relatively mild illnesses, many of these viruses cause severe, life-threatening disease.
The Special Pathogens Branch (SPB) primarily works with hemorrhagic fever viruses that are classified as biosafety level four (BSL-4) pathogens. A list of these viruses appears in the SPB disease information index. The Division of Vector-Borne Infectious Diseases, also in the National Center for Infectious Diseases, works with the non-BSL-4 viruses that cause two other hemorrhagic fevers, dengue hemorrhagic fever and yellow fever.
How are hemorrhagic fever viruses grouped?
VHFs are caused by viruses of four distinct families: arenaviruses, filoviruses, bunyaviruses, and flaviviruses. Each of these families share a number of features:
- They are all RNA viruses, and all are covered, or enveloped, in a fatty (lipid) coating.
- Their survival is dependent on an animal or insect host, called the natural reservoir.
- The viruses are geographically restricted to the areas where their host species live.
- Humans are not the natural reservoir for any of these viruses. Humans are infected when they come into contact with infected hosts. However, with some viruses, after the accidental transmission from the host, humans can transmit the virus to one another.
- Human cases or outbreaks of hemorrhagic fevers caused by these viruses occur sporadically and irregularly. The occurrence of outbreaks cannot be easily predicted.
- With a few noteworthy exceptions, there is no cure or established drug treatment for VHFs.
In rare cases, other viral and bacterial infections can cause a hemorrhagic fever; scrub typhus is a good example.

As CO2 Concentrations Top 400 ppm, WMO Warns Time is Running Out [viewed]
26 May 2014: The World Meteorological Organization (WMO) confirmed that atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations have crossed a new threshold, with April's monthly concentration topping 400 parts per million (ppm) throughout the northern hemisphere. While atmospheric carbon dioxide levels reached 400 ppm in April 2012, this record is the first time the monthly average did. The WMO predicts the global annual average carbon dioxide concentration will cross this threshold in 2015 or 2016.

A Jackson County teen who jumped into Lost Creek Lake and pulled a drowning swimmer to shore in July was awarded with the Oregon State Sheriffs' Assocation Life Saving Award in Bend last week.
Dillon Huntley, 18, of Medford, was at Lost Creek Lake July 23 when he heard cries for help. A group of friends had attempted to swim across a nearby section of the lake, the OSSA reported. A member of the group was overwhelmed by the waves and wind about 25 yards from shore, became exhausted, and started to slip beneath the water. Other members of the group tried to assist, but were nearly pulled under the water by the panicked swimmer. Huntley jumped in the water, swam to the young man, and pulled him to shore.
Jackson County Sheriff's Department Capt. Arron Elder was also at the lake on her day off and called 911 for help when she heard about the ongoing rescue. The exhausted swimmer was flown to a Medford hospital for treatment.
"If not for Dillon Huntley's action, the young man more than likely would have drowned," a statement from association reads.
He received the award at the organization's annual conference, held Dec. 2 through 6 at the Riverhouse Convention Center in Bend.

10 Tips from Top Callers
Expert waterfowlers share their secrets for calling late-season ducks and geese
by Wade Bourne
He was a grizzled old Arkansas guide with a double-barrel attitude. On this morning, he'd had a couple of clients in his party who wanted to help with the calling. "We'd have shot more ducks if they had left their calls in their pockets," the guide grumbled. "There are duck callers, and then there are duck call blowers." He undoubtedly felt that these two men belonged in the latter category.
Sprinkled throughout North America, however, are hunters who truly have the gift of gab with waterfowl. They are genuine calling experts who know which sounds to make, and when to make them, to consistently pull ducks and geese into close range.
The following calling tips from 10 such authorities will help you bag more waterfowl and experience the special fulfillment that results from talking these birds down into the decoys.

WATERTOWN, Wis. – The Lady Crusaders faced stiff competition in a 92-71 loss to a Dominican squad that came in with a 3-1 NAC record.
A layup by junior forward Torey DeLozier (Watertown, Wis.) cut Dominican's lead to 17-14 after the Stars opened with a 12-2 lead.
Time and again, the Stars responded to Maranatha's comeback attempts by shooting 61% from beyond the arc.
Dominican's Katie Budz (Orland Park, Ill.) and Kayla Blom (Circle Pines, Minn.) led a team effort that saw the Stars end the game with 16 three-pointers made.
The Crusaders had three players in double-digit scoring. Laci Peterson (Chillicothe, Ill.) had 18 points, Autumn Peotter (Waupaca, Wis.) notched 15 points while DeLozier finished with 16 points.
Maranatha squares off against Grace Bible College in an away matchup on Saturday, December 17 at 1:00 EST.

Microsoft Office products, such as Word and PowerPoint, have the ability to run macro programs that automate repetitive tasks. You can write macros if you know how to program, or you can let Office generate them using a wizard. While macros can increase productivity, they may also pose security risks if someone gives you a document that contains a malicious macro. If you work with Office documents you trust, you can disable the warnings that Office displays when macros attempt to run.
Disable Macros in Word, Excel, PowerPoint or AccessStep 1
Click the "Office" button in Word, Excel, PowerPoint or Access to open a panel that has an options button with "Options" in its name. The button's complete name varies depending on the Office product. For instance, if you are working in Word, the button's name is "Word Options." Its name is "Excel Options" in Excel.
Click your product's options button to open a window that displays options.
Click "Trust Center" and then click "Trust Center Settings." The Trust Center window opens and displays a Macro Settings section. Review the three options in that section that begin with the word "Disable."
Click "Disable All Macros without Notification" if you don't want the application to notify you before it disables macros. Click "Disable All Macros with Notification" if you'd rather see notifications when macros attempt to run. Otherwise, click "Disable all Macros except Digitally Signed Macros."
Click "OK" twice to save your changes.
Disable Macros in OutlookStep 1
Click "Tools," and then click "Trust Center." Outlook opens the Trust Center window.
Click "Macro Security" to view the Trust Center window's Macro Security section.
Click "No Warnings and Disable All Macros" to prevent the application from displaying macro warnings and to disable all macros. Click "Warnings for Signed Macros; All Unsigned Macros are Disabled" if you'd like the Outlook to disable all Macros that have no digital signatures. If you choose that option, Outlook warns you about macros that have digital signatures when they attempt to run. Otherwise, click "Warnings for All Macros." This option does not disable macros, but it causes Outlook to warn you when any macro tries to run. A digital signature is a seal of authentication that ensures that a document originates from the person who signed it.
- Disable macros in Visio and Publisher by selecting an option in the Trust Center Window. Open that window from Visio or Publisher by clicking "Tools" and then clicking "Trust Center." You can then click Macro settings and select one of the three options that appear in window's Macro Settings section. These options are the same as those you find in Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Access.

Alessandra Ambrosio was recently seeing strolling through LA wearing a gorgeous front-slit floral skirt and a Bella Dahl Denim Bomber Jacket in "River" wash. We love the combination of a chambray jacket and a flowing, summery skirt. Some metallic arm candy and simple flat sandals round out the casual daytime look. You could also layer a swimsuit beneath rather than a tank, for a transitional daytime to beach look. What can we say? We've got summer fun on the brain.

Washington, D.C. — In 2013, Americans took 10.7 billion trips on public transportation, which is the highest annual public transit ridership number in 57 years, according to a report released by the American Public Transportation Association (APTA). This was the eighth year in a row that more than 10 billion trips were taken on public transportation systems nationwide. While vehicle miles traveled on roads (VMT) went up 0.3 percent, public transportation use in 2013 increased by 1.1 percent.
"Last year people took 10.7 billion trips on public transportation. As the highest annual ridership number since 1956, Americans in growing numbers want to have more public transit services in their communities," said Peter Varga, APTA Chair and CEO of The Rapid in Grand Rapids, Mich. "Public transportation systems nationwide – in small, medium, and large communities – saw ridership increases. Some reported all-time high ridership numbers."
Some of the public transit agencies reporting record ridership system-wide or on specific lines were located in the following cities: Ann Arbor, Mich.; Cleveland; Denver; Espanola, N.M.; Flagstaff, Ariz.; Fort Myers, Fla.; Indianapolis; Los Angeles; New Orleans; Oakland, Calif.; Pompano Beach, Fla.; Riverside, Calif.; Salt Lake City; San Carlos, Calif.; Tampa, Fla.; Yuma, Ariz.; and New York.
Since 1995, public transit ridership is up 37.2 percent, outpacing population growth, which is up 20.3 percent, and vehicle miles traveled (VMT), which is up 22.7 percent.
"There is a fundamental shift going on in the way we move about our communities. People in record numbers are demanding more public transit services and communities are benefiting with strong economic growth," said APTA President and CEO Michael Melaniphy.
"Access to public transportation matters," continued Melaniphy. "Community leaders know that public transportation investment drives community growth and economic revitalization."
Another reason behind the ridership increases is the economic recovery in certain areas. When more people are employed, public transportation ridership increases since nearly 60 percent of the trips taken on public transportation are for work commutes."
"The federal investment in public transit is paying off and that is why Congress needs to act this year to pass a new transportation bill," said Melaniphy.

2013 Ridership Breakdown
Heavy rail (subways and elevated trains) ridership increased by 2.8 percent across the country as 8 out of 15 transit systems reported increases. Heavy rail in Miami saw an increase of 10.6 percent that was mostly due to increased frequency during peak service. Other heavy rail systems with increases in ridership for 2013 were in the following cities: Los Angeles (4.8 percent); New York (4.2 percent); and Cleveland (2.9 percent).
Nationally, commuter rail ridership increased by 2.1 percent in 2013 as 20 out of 28 transit systems reported increases. With a new rail line that opened in December 2012, commuter rail in Salt Lake City saw an increase of 103.3 percent. The following five commuter rail systems saw double digit increases in 2013: Austin, Texas (37.3 percent); Harrisburg-Philadelphia, Pa. (33.9 percent); Anchorage, Alaska (30.0 percent); Lewisville, Texas (23.0 percent); Stockton, Calif. (19.9 percent); Minneapolis (12.5 percent); and Portland, Ore. (10.3 percent).
Light rail (modern streetcars, trolleys, and heritage trolleys) ridership increased 1.6 percent in 2013 with 17 out of 27 transit systems reporting increases. Systems that showed double-digit increases in 2013 were located in the following cities: New Orleans (28.9 percent); Denver (14.9 percent); and San Diego (10.4 percent). Ridership in the following cities also saw increases in 2013: Seattle – Sound Transit (9.8 percent); Pittsburgh (7.5 percent); Salt Lake City (6.8 percent); Los Angeles (6.0 percent); San Jose, Calif. (3.6 percent); and Philadelphia (3.5 percent).
Bus ridership increased by 3.8 percent in cities with a population of below 100,000. Nationally, bus ridership in communities of all sizes remained stable, declining by 0.1 percent. Large bus systems with increases were located in the following areas: Washington, D.C. (3.5 percent); Houston (3.4 percent); Cincinnati (3.4 percent); and Seattle (3.1 percent).
Demand response (paratransit) ridership increased in 2013 by 0.5 percent.

|Evolution of Microstructure in the Liquid and Crystal Directions in a Quenched Block Copolymer Melt and Its Implication on Phase Transition Mechanisms
|November 01, 1998
|Evolution of the disorder-to-order transition within a block copolymer is studied by the thermal quenching of samples from the melt to an ordered state. The ordered state consists of cylinders arranged on a hexagonal lattice and has liquid crystalline symmetry with liquid-like disorder along the cylinders axis and crystalline order in the hexagonal plane. We monitor the kinetics of microstructure formation in the liquid and crystalline directions by a combination of time-resolved depolarized light scattering and small angle x-ray scattering experiments. At small quench depths, microstructure formation along the liquid and crystalline directions is strongly correlated during all stages of the disorder-to-order transition. We demonstrate that this is expected when microstructure formation occurs by classical nucleation and growth; however, at large quench depths microstructure formation along the liquid and crystalline directions is not correlated. The growth of crystalline order occurs before the development of a coherent structure along the liquid direction. We argue that this may be a signature of spinodal decomposition in liquid crystals.

Great golf shirt looks good without tucking in and is nicely tailored. It does snag as it's a man-made material. It's the right weight to wear under or over other layers.

Nuclear materials travel along the highways on a regular basis, but more transports are anticipated along the Interstate 81 corridor in the next 18 months, prompting area emergency managers to offer additional training for their teams and other first responders.
Steve Bekanich, director of Luzerne County's Emergency Management Agency, acknowledged the potential for more nuclear transports through the county in the coming months. He said his team is prepared should an accident occur.
"As a nuclear power plant county, we're way ahead of the game when it comes to handling potential incidents," he said, referring to PPL Susquehanna Steam Electric Station in Salem Township. "We have a head start on everyone else."
Still, Bekanich's team and other first responders participated in a recent training session led by the U.S. Department of Energy's Nuclear Safety Division, he said.
"The best of the best came in and trained our people," Bekanich said.
His counterpart at the Schuylkill County Emergency Management Agency, John Matz, also sought training for his team after learning about more transports scheduled to come through his county, where a long-term bridge rehabilitation project will reduce I-81 to a single lane in each direction.
"We reached out to our radiological support team" and tapped resources in the state Department of Environmental Protection's Bureau of Radiation Protection, he said.
Most of the training is routine, as Schuylkill County would provide support to neighboring counties with nuclear power facilities, including Luzerne County.
Neither emergency manager knows precisely when a transport will come through, but they are notified and given an approximate time frame, such as "the next day or two," Bekanich said.
Discreet escorts often accompany these nuclear transports, making notifications to the proper authorities and cleanup crews immediatly in the event of an accident, he explained. The likelihood of an incident, though, remains very low as these materials travel in containers built to withstand a crash, he said.
"There's always a one-in-a-million chance, but they can be hit by a train and not fail," Bekanich said. "I'm not concerned about them going up and down the highway."

Heat Report: 21.11.11
An update on the Flames AHL affiliate, the Abbotsford Heat
The Abbotsford Heat have ridden their great road record to the top of the American Hockey League standings as their longest road trip of the season has wrapped-up.
The Heat (13-5-1-0) are tied at 27 points with the St. John's IceCaps (Winnipeg Jets affiliate) and though St. John's does have one fewer game played, Abbotsford has made a name for itself as the best in the West and a team to reckon with on the road.
Their record on their recent road swing through the Midwest and southern U.S. was 6-1-0. Their only loss came against the Oklahoma City Barons (Edmonton Oilers affiliate) 4-1 but the Heat closed out the trip Sunday night with a 1-0 shootout victory over the Houston Aeros, giving them a total road record of 11-2-0-0.
In their 1-0 shootout win Sunday evening, the Heat's Leland Irving made 34 saves in regulation and overtime, and then stopped all five shootout attempts.
Irving was airtight in the shootout stopping all five attempts against, while Dustin Sylvester was the lone player to score all night when he put the puck into the top right corner of the Houston net as the fourth shooter for the Heat in the shootout.
Irving now leads the AHL in shutouts with his third blank sheet, while he also is the leader in wins (13), minutes played (1,022) and shootout wins (three). His goals against average is a stingy 1.94 to go with his .927 save percentage.
Last Saturday when Krys Kolanos wasn't in the line-up of the Abbotsford Heat versus Texas Stars some team followers began to question the move, wondering if he had been released. Instead, it was Kolanos' original Professional Tryout Offer that had expired and hadn't yet put ink to paper on a new deal.
Last Monday the Heat officially announced that Kolanos has indeed signed a Standard Player Contract with the AHL club, though details were not disclosed.
The 30-year-old Calgary native has amassed nine goals and eight assists for 17 points in just 10 games since joining the Heat on Oct. 28 after missing close to two years recovering from hip surgery.
"[It's] one of the first stages in his comeback," said Abbotsford head coach Troy Ward. "The first was to prove he's healthy. Second, earn a contract and the third, working his way back to being a perennial player in the AHL."
Kolanos netted 63 points in 65 games for the Quad City Flames in 2007-08. He has 198 points in 167 career AHL games to go with his 41 points in 136 NHL contests with the Phoenix Coyotes, Edmonton Oilers and Minnesota Wild.
Calgary's 2008 second-round selection Mitch Wahl is on his way to the Hamilton Bulldogs of the AHL on loan for the rest of the season.
Wahl had struggled to earn a spot on the Heat this season, stuck behind unprecedented depth at center.
"Our situation has changed dynamically, with the fact that we've had some older players who have come in and complimented the younger players," Abbotsford's head coach Troy Ward told Dan Kinvig of the Abbotsford News. "With all those moves in the off-season, it became tougher for Mitch to get ice time."
Wahl had earned five goals and two assists in five games with the ECHL's Utah Grizzlies though was pointless in five contests with the Heat this year.
The Heat continued their roster shuffling, looking for the perfect fit amongst the bottom six, reassigning Logan MacMillan to the Utah Grizzlies (ECHL) while calling up Justin Dowling to the Heat.
MacMillan, a 2007 first-round choice of the Anaheim Ducks, had just one assist in seven games for Abbotsford this season and struggled to draw into the line-up.
Dowling had two goals and nine assists for 11 points in 12 games with the ECHL's Grizzlies before his call up on Thursday. Last season after signing a late-season Amateur Tryout Offer Dowling picked up a goal and three assists in eight games with the Abbotsford Heat. He has no points in three games so far this year.
Next up for the Heat is a two-game home stand against the San Antonio Rampage (Florida Panthers affiliate) Friday, Nov. 25 and Sunday, Nov. 27. Abbotsford defeated San Antonio in their only match-up this year 4-0 in Texas.
Then, the Heat head back on the road, where they've been so successful, for another four-game road trip.

Charities in the dark over auto-enrolment
The figures from the survey showed 14 per cent do not know about auto-enrolment or what their responsibilities will be to employees once the reforms are implemented.
Just 9 per cent of more than 700 voluntary sector organisations and social enterprises employing 98,500 staff who were participated in the survey said they completely understood auto-enrolment and how they needed to prepare.
Those with fewer employees were more likely to need of guidance in the build up to the auto-enrolment reforms.
Stephen Nichols, chief executive of The Pensions Trust, said: "While smaller organisations will have more time to prepare for auto-enrolment, this does not mean they should rest on their laurels and do nothing. It is vital that all organisations, regardless of size, do what they can now to make sure they are properly prepared."
Employers told The Pensions Trust that online information, self-help tools, checklists, workshops and regulatory updates could help them prepare for auto-enrolment.
In response, the Trust has added an online cost calculator to its suite of support tools. Employers can use it to determine the additional pension costs they can expect once the regulations come into force.
