Must be.
If you make a polygon outlining the footprint of the B1G school, the centroid is somewhere between Indy and Chicago, so they should alternate those 2 sites (oh, wait, they did that, and it worked great, and now the f'd it up). 2 of the 3 schools within 400 miles are Rutgers and Maryland, both of whom are not REALLY in the B1G, so they shouldn't count. The 3rd is PSU, who deserves no consideration, so in reality, they moved their premier BB games a full day drive from all of the fans.

I must have missed when they announced the the BTT is being held in DC. That is pretty ridiculous. Who (besides Jim Delany) thought it was a good idea to have the BTT at a site that all but 3 schools are over 400 miles from, and MInn and Neb are both over 1,100 miles from. This makes it impossible for fans to travel to the event!

|But did they report a false crime?
My understanding of the story is that none of the athletes reported anything to authorities. Brazilian authorities apparently started the investigation based on news reports. This would be akin to the two athletes being pulled off of a flight and detained for slander (or libel, I can't keep them straight).

|I have one
After I graduated from UM in Aerospace Engineering, I took a temporary job with a civil engineering firm while I applied to grad schools. After summer and fall, I went to grad school at Purdue for Aerospace in January, and loved it. Came home for the summer and worked at the same civil firm "temporarily". During that time, my fiance's father was opening a business, and she was going to work with him. I had 1 year left (fall and spring semesters) and we were going to be married in December, which sucked that we would be living apart being married, but it was only for a couple of months, and then we would be able to move wherever I got a job in Aerospace.
Well, about 4 weeks before I was going to be returning to Purdue, 2 things simultaneously occurred:
-Fiance decides she wants to stay where we grew up and work with her dad indefinitely - There are no aerospace jobs in the area, so it was kind of a big deal
-Civil firm offers me a permanent position with, at the time, a preety lucrative salary
So, I had to decide between essentially my fiance and my career goals...we will be married 14 years this December.
I often think how different my life would have been had I finished grad school and gone into Aerospace engineering instead of sticking with civil, but then I look at the 3 kids we have and how much they have enjoyed growing up around family, and it makes it better.
I still REALLY miss rockets though...

|Do you like Phil Collins?
|Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Christy, take off your robe. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. Sabrina, remove your dress. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Sabrina, why don't you, uh, dance a little. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Christy, get down on your knees so Sabrina can see your asshole. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. Sabrina, don't just stare at it, eat it. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.

|Lost consciousness in a gov't vehicle
I was driving on a State Highway that cuts across Saginaw County, and has pretty heavy traffic moving between 50-65 mph. I had my normal springtiime bout of bronchitis, and as I was driving my goverment issued vehicle, I experinced a coughing fit, which caused me to blackout (which I didn't realize until later). I apparently drive across the road to the left, through on-coming traffic, off the road, past one tree and then a fire hydrant on the other side, then between 2 rather large pines (the opening was maybe 1 foot wider than my vehicle), into the ditch, up and over 2 driveways and back into the ditch, and started coming to and pressed the brake and I was beginning to go up the backside of the ~6 ft deep ditch that would have rolled the car. I stopped and regained awareness of where I was about 2 ft from a gas transmission standpipe and with my car at about a 45 degree angle on the backslope of the ditch. A couple of cars that were behind me stopped and came running over, thinking I had a heart attack or something else sever.
Being a government employee, in a government vehicle, I had to go have drug and alcohol test and a physical before returning to work. The worst part of the whole ordeal was about 4 months later, the Secretary of State sends me a letter stating my license is suspended to 6 months because I lost consciousness while driving. It took a lot of phone calls and arguing with bureaucrats to convince them that I blacked out from coughing due to bronchitis (that's what my doctor told me), and seeing as the bronchitis was gone, I wasn't a threat to lose consciousness again.
Oh, and the car, which was all of 3 months old at the time, took 6 weeks to repair in the shop (over $15,000 in damage). I'm friends with the guy who took my old job, and drives the car now, and to this day it makes weird noises and doesn't drive right.

Shaped by storm and
tides, Island Beach State Park is a narrow barrier island
stretching for 10 miles between the restless Atlantic Ocean
and the historic Barnegat Bay. Island Beach is one of New
Jersey's last significant remnants of a barrier island ecosystem
that once existed along much of the coast and is also one
of the few remaining undeveloped barrier beaches on the north
Atlantic coast. Over 3,000 acres and 10 miles of coastal dunes
remain almost untouched since Henry Hudson first described
New Jersey's coast from the ship, the Half Moon, in 1609.
Miles of sand dunes and white sandy beaches offer habitat to maritime plants and diverse wildlife that is almost the same as it was thousands of years ago. Island Beach contains outstanding examples of plant communities such as primary dunes, thicket, freshwater wetlands, maritime forest and tidal marshes. The state's largest osprey colony calls our park home and they welcome a wide variety of visiting birds including peregrine falcons, wading birds, shorebirds, waterfowl and migrating songbirds. Island Beach is nationally known as a unique resource with over 400 plants identified, including the largest expanses of beach heather in New Jersey.
Through the Carry-In/Carry-Out Program you can help us keep your parks clean
and beautiful by carrying out the trash you carry in. Bags are provided
throughout the site. Thank you for your cooperation and remember to recycle.
Island Beach State Park facilities are partially accessible for people with disabilities. The Fisherman's Walkway is a boardwalk that provides access to both the ocean and bay at parking Area 7. Beach wheelchairs for the ocean swimming area and beach wheelchairs that have been specially fitted for surf fishing are available at the pavilions during the swimming season and at the park office during the remainder of the year. Contact the park office for further information regarding disability access. Text telephone (TT) users, call the New Jersey Relay Service at (800) 852-7899.

Island Beach State Park A-7/Southern Swimming Area Questions and Answers
This fee promotes public safety in the A-7 section of Island Beach State Park by providing a guarded beach in this section of the Park. In years past, the beach in this area has not been protected by lifeguards, yet lifeguards assigned to other beaches have had to leave their posts to perform rescues of swimmers in distress at or near A-7. To keep the swimmers safe at this popular location, the State Park Service has decided to provide a lifeguard service.
The modest $3 fee will cover the cost of providing this service, as well as other amenities, to visitors to this part of Island Beach State Park. The many people who anchor their boats at Tices Shoal and cross over Fisherman's Walkway at A-7 to the ocean to swim will now be afforded the full protection that our lifeguards provide.
Lifeguards will protect those who swim in the newly designated swimming area in the A-7 area of the park, which has become increasingly popular over the years. Unfortunately, many people disregard the signs stating swimming in unguarded portions of the beach is illegal and unsafe. Distress calls from unguarded sections happen frequently at Island Beach State Park. When guards respond outside the permitted bathing areas, resources and equipment at the bathing areas are compromised. Lifeguards, State Park Police, Good Samaritans and emergency responders from neighboring rescue squads are also put at risk. The establishment of this new bathing area will allow visitors from Tices Shoal to safely swim at Island Beach State Park without compromising safety at the other bathing areas.
The A-7 walkway has never been an official pedestrian access area into the Park. The walkway was constructed for fishing access to the ocean side, notably for those who have limited mobility. The bayside walkway was constructed for park visitors to access the bay. However, over time, the walkways became heavily utilized by boaters from Tices Shoal. The Department supports public access and our intent with this plan is to enhance public access by creating a lifeguarded swimming area and legitimizing the access point.
The fee is being established because a new lifeguard service is being offered for those entering via boat or watercraft at Fishermen's Walkway. Walk-in visitors at the gatehouse are more than 3 miles from a swimming pavilion and more than 4 miles from the Tices Shoal area. For the most part, these pedestrians, runners and bikers are not using the services provided by the Park. As there are no additional services planned for the gatehouse area for walk-in visitors, State Park Service does not feel it is appropriate to establish a new fee at this time at the gatehouse.
Boaters will not be charged for visiting Tices Shoal. Only boaters who leave their boats and go to the newly established, protected swimming area will be charged. All other persons who enter Island Beach State Park by car, truck or motorcycle are paying a fee. The fee may be a Park Pass, Mobile Sportfishing Permit, or a daily parking fee. All of these visitors pay for the services the Park offers. Increasing services in this area will have positive impacts throughout the Park.
The fee is consistent with existing walk-in fees at other State Parks.
The walk-in fee will only be collected when lifeguards are on duty. The area will be guarded, weather permitting, from 10 a.m. through 6 p.m. from late June through late August. There will be no fee collected and swimming will not be permitted from 6 p.m. through 10 a.m.
The Park will have Walk-In Park Passes available for sale at the Island Beach State Park Gate House to be purchased in advance of visiting the Fishermen's Walkway. Those without a Park Pass will be charged $3 per person daily. Cash and Credit Cards will be accepted at the kiosk located at Fisherman's Walkway.
Yes, Visitors can access the beach at A-7 with their pets as long as they are held on a leash, maximum length, six feet and you must clean up after your pet. Pets cannot be in the immediate swimming area.
Season passes are available for boaters who wish to enter the swimming area from Tices Shoal. A Walk-In Pass is available for purchase and use at Fisherman's Walkway. The passes are sold at the Island Beach Gatehouse in the off-season which is open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Between the last weekend in June and Labor Day, the passes are also available at the toll both access from Tices Shoal. The pass is $50 ($75 for Non-residents) for the year and will allow up to six (6) walk in visitors per day. The pass will be laminated in plastic so it can be affixed to a key chain. Please call 732-793-0506 with any questions.
Yes. The pass holder and up to five additional walk-in visitors will be admitted without an additional fee upon presentation of the pass to the attendant at Fisherman's Walkway.
Aside from lifeguards, the Park operates and maintains existing restrooms at adjacent A-6. The Park keeps the bathrooms clean and free of trash. Although the Park is a "carry in/carry out" facility, the Park removes trash from the beach on a daily basis.
The walkways were constructed for fishing access. Over the years, as use of the area has increased, conflicts between swimmers and fishermen have also increased, especially in the summer season. By establishing the bathing area, delineating a fishing area, and having a staff presence, we are confident that potential conflicts will be minimized and all visitors may enjoy the Park.
All revenue collected by the State Park, including the newly established fee, is deposited into the State Treasury. Those funds will be used to purchase equipment and pay for the staff for the new operation.
The State Park Service does not regulate the Tices Shoal Area of Barnegat Bay. The area is "State-Owned Riparian Land" and is open to public access in accordance with the Public Trust Doctrine. Any suggestion that "boats will be charged at Tices Shoal" by Island Beach State Park is not accurate.
Access to the Park is only allowed at authorized access points. Other possible unauthorized access areas are difficult to traverse, with thick undergrowth of poison ivy and other vines and a large population of ticks. People who attempt to avoid the fee by entering through these unauthorized access areas are subject to immediate removal from the Park and may be assessed monetary penalties. As throughout the State Park system, protection of its natural resources, including vegetation and the dune system, is a priority.
A $3 walk-in fee (free for children under 3-years old) will be assessed for those who enter the park at Fisherman's Walkway adjacent to Tices Shoal while lifeguards are on duty. Access to the park by boat is only permitted at the Fisherman's Walkway bayside access.
The State Park Service is pleased to announce that Island Beach State Park will be opening earlier through the off-season for all our park visitors including birders, hikers, beach walkers and those who may just want to watch the sun rise! From November 1 through April 30th the park will be open from dawn to dusk for all to enjoy. The Park opening time will revert to 8:00 am on May 1st.
Island Beach Trails Map (PDF file 1MB)
The Island Beach State Park Discovery Trails System provides a self-guided experience through the nine plant communities of a barrier island. Wayside exhibits located along each trail interpret the natural and cultural stories of the park. There are a total of 8 trails, each under one mile. For a copy of the Discovery Trails brochure and map, please contact the Park Office.
Horseback riding is permitted at Island Beach State Park from October 1 through April 30. There are six miles of ocean beach in the southern and central portions of the park available for equestrian use and a parking area is designated for horse trailers during this time period. Reservations are required by contacting the park office at (732) 793-0506.
Ten miles of pure white sand beach attract
swimmers, sunbathers, anglers and surfers. Modern bathhouses,
beach access ramps, a mile of beach with lifeguards, historic
buildings, trails, interpretive programs, bike paths and facilities
for people with disabilities combine to make Island Beach
a unique place to explore.
The bayside of the island is a nutrient-rich
feeding ground for birds, fish and other wildlife. Naturalist
guided canoe and kayak tours during the summer months take
participants through the Sedge Islands where they can observe
a wide variety of wildlife, including nesting ospreys, falcons
and wading birds. Bird observation blinds give visitors the
opportunity to view the wildlife in this very important habitat.
Together, these two natural areas encompass
one of the few remaining undeveloped barrier beaches in the
northeast United States. Rolling sand dunes, salt-sculptured
vegetation, lush green salt marshes, and nine plant communities
including a nationally significant maritime forest characterize
Island Beach. The federally threatened piping plover is an
occasional inhabitant of the open beaches and dunes. Access
to portions of the Northern Natural Area is restricted.
Special Use Permit Application
Please note: Special use permits are subject to review and approval by the park.
Special Use Permit Application Package
A Special Use Permit is utilized to accommodate a specific activity or event being conducted over a short duration. There are two types of special use permits: Non-Commercial and Commercial and fees are based on NJ residency and Non-residents. A completed application must be submitted to the park/forest area where the activity or event is being held at least 90 days prior to the event. If the special use or event is extremely large or complex, at least one-year's prior notice is recommended.
Island Beach State Park is well known by
New Jersey's saltwater anglers for excellent surf fishing
for striped bass and bluefish. Other species include summer
flounder and weakfish. During the appropriate season, fishing
for tautog along the north jetty of Barnegat Inlet is especially
rewarding. Bait and fishing information may be obtained at
local tackle dealers before entering the park. Saltwater fishing
is subject to New
Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife and State Park Service
regulations. Information regarding saltwater fishing regulations
can be found in the Fish and Wildlife Digest, which is available
at local tackle dealers.
Access to fishing in the park is open 24 hours a day.
Mobile Sportfishing Vehicle permits to operate
4-wheel drive vehicles on the fishing beaches may be obtained
at the Park's Visitor Contact Station at the entrance gate.
New Jersey Resident $75.00
Non-Resident $90.00
New Jersey Resident $195.00
Non-Resident $225.00
Issued decal should be treated as cash. It will not be replaced if lost or stolen.
The SPS will continue to offer a replacement decal for $25, only upon presentation of paid receipt and the old decal, regardless of the condition.
The MSFV Permit:
You must apply for the MSFV Permit in person at the Island Beach gatehouse. You will be asked to present original vehicle registration, driver license and lease documents.
Approximately one mile of designated ocean
bathing beach is located in the central portion of the park.
During the period from mid-June through Labor Day, this bathing
beach is staffed with lifeguards who are trained in ocean
lifesaving and first aid techniques. Nearby are parking areas
and bathhouse pavilions with changing areas, first aid stations,
and concessions.
Personal Flotation Devices are not permitted to be used in the Ocean Bathing Areas.
A new lifeguarded swimming area will be open this summer season near A-7, north of the Fisherman's Walkway access point. A $3 walk-in fee (free for children under 3 years old) will be assessed for those who enter the park at Fisherman's Walkway adjacent to Tices Shoal while lifeguards are on duty.
Although tables and grills are not available
in the park, visitors may enjoy picnicking on the ocean beach.
Grills may be used on the beach south of the designated bathing
area. Fires must be at least 50 feet east of the dunes, and
picnickers are required to extinguish their fires before leaving
the area. Island Beach State Park requires visitors to "Carry
In/Carry Out" their garbage.
A designated bicycle path is located along more than 8 miles of the main road. Six miles of ocean beach in the southern and central portions of the park are available for equestrian use from October 1 through April 30. A parking area is designated for horse trailers during this time period. There are no horse rental facilities in or near the park. Please contact the park office for further information.
From Memorial Day Weekend through the first of October, pets are not permitted on the Ocean Swimming Beaches (lifeguarded areas). Pets are permitted South of the Ocean Swimming Areas during this time period but must be held on a leash (maximum length - 6 feet) and you must clean up after your pet. Pets are not permitted on the Spizzle Creek Bird Blind Trail at any time.
Portions of the ocean beach at the extreme
southern end of the designated bathing area have been set
aside for sailboarding and surfing. For further information,
please contact the Park Office.
Scuba diving and underwater fishing are permitted
along 2.5 miles of ocean beach just north of Barnegat Inlet.
Scuba divers must register at the park office just prior to
their first dive each year. Proof of current diving certification
is required. Spear and underwater fishing are subject to New
Jersey Division of Fish and Wildlife regulations. Diving in
Barnegat Inlet is permitted and subject to New Jersey Boating
Commission Special Regulations.
Island Beach State Park's natural sand dune formations and relatively undisturbed vegetation create a unique outdoors experience to study a barrier island ecosystem. School groups that are interested in visiting the Park for self-guided tours must make advance reservations. For more information, please call the Park Office at (732) 793-0506.
The Sedge Island Marine Conservation Zone
contains approximately 1,600 acres of highly productive tidal
marshes, creeks, ponds, and open water. The purpose of the
Conservation Zone is to protect and interpret the wildlife
resources while reducing user conflicts and maintaining the
traditional uses of the area. Canoe and kayak tours are offered
by Park's interpretive staff. For more information regarding
the Conservation Zone, please contact the Park Office.

The Emily DeCamp Herbarium is a collection
of approximately 400 plants that have been classified and
preserved, giving the public an opportunity to learn about
the nine plant communities at Island Beach State Park. One
of the main attractions of this herbarium is that the visiting
public and scientists are able to handle and examine individual
plants. Plants have been placed in a protective mount that
also gives historical and factual information about the plant.
The herbarium is kept at the Forked River Interpretive Center.
Two Coast Guard stations from 1901 and 1938;
New Jersey's largest osprey colony. Excellent location to
study barrier island plants, see a red fox or observe migrating
birds in May and October. Surf chairs and ramps at Ocean Beach
Area-1, Ocean Beach Area-2 and Area-7 to assist people with
disabilities to fish or reach the water's edge.
State Park Service areas open to hunting
Hunting is permitted in designated areas within the park and is subject to Division of Fish and Wildlife regulations.
