Production Group – new!!
This group is open to adults and teenagers aged 15 plus. It involves taking part in a full-length production of a play, over a season of sixteen shows.
This course is now full. Details of our upcoming production will soon be posted.
Although you do not have to harbour a desire to become an actor, this group is especially useful for people who are interested in the possibility of professional acting. It will run as a semi-professional company, and we will invite casting consultants, agents and other industry professionals to the shows.
The group will meet each Sunday – starting on 21 February, with several breaks in the year. You will not be required every Sunday, as rehearsals will be divided into scenes. However, as the opening of the show season gets closer, the rehearsal time commitment will increase.
The season of the show will commence on Saturday 6 August.
We have two web pages with identical information about the Production Group:
- Teenagers – see the Teenage Production Group web page. From this page you will also see links to other Teenage classes.
- Adults – see the Adult Production Group web page. From this page you will also see links to other Adult classes.

- If you require assistance with an audition or speech, please email directly to discuss private lesson rates and to organise times.
- For teenagers looking at acting and/or its related industries, we can assist with advice, audition preparation etc. for major drama schools. We have assisted young people to gain entry via audition preparation into some of the world's most prestigious acting schools.
- If you wish to book a session to discuss the best way of approaching agents etc. this can also be arranged.

The visitors were denied an early opening goal when keeper Luciano saved a shot from Derk Boerrigter then De Jong made no mistake after 25 minutes with a shot from 20 metres that went in off the post.
Four minutes into the second half Eriksen made it 2-0 with a superb running volley that went over Luciano and Boerrigter set up Fischer to settle the match in the 60th minute.
"We played very effectively today although we didn't create many chances but we controlled the match," said Ajax skipper De Jong.
"Our early second goal was decisive as Groningen changed their tactical plan after the break by playing one-on-one in their defence to try to get back in the match."
Ronald Koeman's Feyenoord beat Marco van Basten's Heerenveen 7-6 on penalties on Wednesday to reach the quarter-finals, joined by Vitesse Arnhem who hammered amateurs ADO'20 Heemskerk 10-1.
Holders PSV Eindhoven also reached the last eight with a comfortable 4-0 win at Rijnsburgse Boys on Tuesday.

I have tried to purchase Allianz's travel insurance one day before departing in UA web after purchasing two air tickets using a foreign currency outside of US. The premium shown was in foreign currency before booking. After submitting the order, I received a message which clearly stated that there was an error in the system and the transaction had not gone through. And, I had not received any confirmation email or mail about this order.
However, few days later, I found that my credit card was charged for a premium based on the price of an air ticket without foreign currency conversion at $128,000 in US DOLLAR that was more than 10 times higher than any of the most expensive first class trans-pacific ticket.
After calling the customer service within 5 days, the person didn't admit the error on the premium and said that all UA tickets should be shown in US dollar in UA web. Nonetheless, I was asked to send an email to file the claim and was told that I should receive a response within 5~7 days. I then sent the original receipt from my UA account which clearly showed the price with a foreign currency, not US dollar. I claimed the policy was invalid with all the errors and requested a full refund. However,
1) I haven't received ANY responses or any receiving notice of my claim for more than 21 days.
2) During this period of time, I have called customer service again and a lady told me that she couldnt help me because my claim was in charge by Kelly. But, she did help to send an email to ask Kelly to contact me within 48 hours. However, I haven't received any responses from Kelly in the next 10 days.
3) Kelly finally responded me back 21 days after submitting the claim and admitted the error on the premium due to the lack of foreign currency conversion on air tickets. However, she denied the cancellation and a full refund because she insisted the policy is valid and the departing date has passed even I cancelled it within 5 days. I then only received a partial refund.
4) Then, I received confirmation and policy letters by mail one week later.
5) I responded to emphasize that her admittance to the error of the original premium without foreign currency conversion of air tickets should prove my explanation of the system error during the transaction and that the order had not gone through. In addition, I had not received any confirmation letters until they received my claims. Most importantly, I never saw a premium with a correct quote for a policy before purchasing. The policy should be invalid without my authorization.
However, two weeks have passed, I haven't received ANY responses from ALLIANZ or Kelly. It is clear that ALLIANZ CUSTOMER SERVICE IS AWEFUL AND UNACCEPTABLE.

I called my bank to dispute the charges. My bank also closed my debit acct and said they will reopen a new one under new acct #. I also called Easy Saver, I stated I would involve legal authorities and bring fraud charges as I have never purchased anything from them and never authorized anyone else to do so.
First they said one month would be credited, I insisted on full refund or fraud charges, then they said 2 months would be credited. Further conversation then brought comment that there was a third charge that would be pending after today, again I insisted on full refund or fraud charges. Supposed supervisor then said 3rd month will be credited too. They stated this would take 7 to 10 days. This seems like too lengthy of a time and I am not optimistic but will update this in the future.
In the meantime, I have also filed reports/complaints with the BBB and my Attorney General's office.

"A Nicer Place to Work"
Uber fuels hip-hop style beef with Lyft
Posted on 09. May, 2013 by tobymorning in blog, Coworking, Designers, Detroit, Developers, Funding, SOMA, Startups
I mustache you to switch to Uber.
Standing outside of Citizen Space, the birthplace of coworking, I see an infographic style ad billboard drive by encouraging me to "shave the stache".
For weeks I have been waiting on Kanye's response to Ray J's "I hit it first" single but now that Uber has taken a direct shot at Lyft, my attention is on the private driver services.
This is the first direct attack I have seen to date and it raises a bunch of interesting questions. How will Lyft respond to this? Is this a good move by Uber? Is Uber willing to say they will quit driving forever if they don't outsell Lyft like 50 said he would quit rapping forever if he didn't outsell Kanye?
I guess the best we can do is sit back and watch this play out!

Be Lean, But Don't Buy It as a Silver Bullet
Posted on 10. Jul, 2012 by Patrick Houston in Developers, Funding, Startups
Yes, there's a lot to like about 'lean' startup methods. But don't gulp it without question.
I've been following–or practicing–"cutting edge" business methods for longer than I want you to know. Try this. You're familiar with "agile development," right? But how about quality circles? Or Total Quality Management? How's about Six Sigma? I've lived through them all. And I can attest to the fact they all shared something in common with the latest "lean startup" methodologies buzzing around the cubicles, incubators, and co-working spaces we inhabit: All promised revitalization, growth, and great, good fortune.
But those early panaceas did something else: They came, and then they went.
So whenever I encounter a similar silver bullet these days I just wanna reach for one–as in the kind that stars in a beer commercial. If I popped the top on a cold one every time I heard someone say "pivot," "persevere," and "minimum viable product" I'd have a drinking problem.
Those are terms popularized by Eric Ries in his best-selling book, "The Lean Startup: How Today's Entrepreneurs Use Continuous Innovation to Create Radically Successful Businesses." You must know him. He currently enjoys guru status in entrepreneurial circles. He's been lionized most recently in a Wired magazine profile, which also noted how his philosophy is currently making its way out of the startup scene and into big blue-chip companies such as General Electric. Even Harvard Business School is offering a course based on his work.
I've read the book. I've recommended some of its practices. I've embraced some too as my own startup conceives, develops, and consults to technology-fueled media startups. I confess I concur with the precept at the heart of the lean approach: Even the most brilliant and experienced people don't know enough to outwit newly emerging, rapidly changing, and increasingly complex markets, especially when it comes to products and business models without precedent. That's especially why a startup is based more on faith and less on fact. The market hasn't spoken. As a result, the only prudent way to give birth to a business is to test and test and test. According to Ries, it's about deploying the same scientific method we learned in grade school: State a hypothesis and then experiment to prove it.
Humility counts. This inherently more humble approach to business represents a refreshing contrast to the entrepreneurial hubris that typically struts its stuff down the streets of Palo Alto. Or the egotism that fills executive suites throughout the business world, for that matter. I've personally been witness to monumental miscalculations by the best and brightest who couldn't have been more certain of themselves, what with their MBAs, lofty titles, fat salaries, and corporate perks.
Still, I'm just not–n-o-t, not–willing to become a flag-waving member of the lean startup "movement," which Ries started calling it as soon as Page 14 of his book. A movement? Really? Like civil rights? Environmentalism? The Arab Spring?
When someone touts a practice as a movement that's the telltale sign of fad surely destined to fade because it invariably over-promises.
While they're rare, others refuse to guzzle the zero-calorie Kool-Aid, too. The Wired profile pointed out one certainly worth noting: Respected Silicon Valley venture capitalist Ben Horowitz who's said in his own blog post that, to hell with skinny, startups need to be fat–monied and rapaciously profligate enough to dominate a market before someone else does.
Brit fit. One of the most outspoken and quotable curmudgeons I found lives from Silicon Valley–in Surrey, South of London, in fact. Maybe distance makes the head grow stronger, because 47-year-old Nick Pelling, a serial entrepreneur, pulls no punches. Consider his screed on the 10 reasons why "lean startups suck"
For all its reliance on the scientific method, Pelling declares that "lean" isn't science at all; it's only validation is anecdotal. But Pelling's main rap is that it's naive. "A lean startup is only really self-fundable," he says. And the reason is that, in the real world, people aren't willing to give their money to someone who wants to conduct "experiments" with it. Instead, someone willing to stake a business wants confidence, comfort, and proof you know what you're doing
"What kind of a 'contract' can you have with a business angel by taking this approach?" Pelling asks. "It's a key disconnect with the way people actually behave." The sources of capital "don't want to fund your industrial education," he says, concluding that Ries doctrines "are much more about learning than about leaning."
I'm not as strident. There are "lean" methods and tactics you might well find applicable and fruitful. Nevertheless, I won't, and you shouldn't, take the approach for what it's not—and it's not a silver bullet. There's only one of those that delivers on its promise, and I'm about to pop the top on it right now.

Go Fund Yourself! FailChats
Posted on 28. Feb, 2012 by tobymorning in blog, Coworking, Events, Funding, SOMA, Startups
Last night over 70 people gathered to hear a panel moderated by Charles Hudson, a Venture Partner with SoftTech VC, talk about their experience bootstrapping, learning the importance of accountability, deciding what were the important metrics of success, and how to survive when things don't go as well as hoped.
Christine Herron, Director with Intel Capital, Trevor Cornwell, the founder and CEO of appbackr inc., Danae Ringelmann, co-founder of IndieGoGo, and George Revutsky, the founder and CEO of MyNextCustomer all spoke eloquently about their experience.
We learned that mom can be the best angel investor when you need to get through that little hump, but be sure your arrangement has clear terms. We learned about risk, and the importance of maintaining strong relationships both personally and professionally.
Check out the photos on our facebook page, and look out for our next FailChat in the coming months!!

Economics of Coal Power and Wind are shifting in favor of Wind
November 1, 2012 07:33 AM - Tina Casey, Triple Pundit
While the cost of wind power has been dropping, a fascinating article in The Washington Post describes how coal mining is becoming more difficult and expensive. The coal industry cites environmental regulations as the main source of upward pressure on costs but WaPo writer Steven Mufson makes a convincing case that factors within the coal fields themselves are the main culprit. Mufson is careful to note that the trend varies from one coal field to another, but it is occurring in the key coal-producing region of Appalachia among others. Against the backdrop of falling wind prices, the rising cost of coal provides businesses with yet another incentive to explore ways of tapping the wind to power their operations.
Climate change mitigation 'far cheaper than inaction'
October 31, 2012 02:48 PM - Daniela Hirschfeld, SciDevNet
Tackling the global climate crisis could reap significant economic benefits for both developed and developing countries, according to a new report. The impacts of climate change and a carbon-intensive economy cost the world around US$1.2 trillion a year — 1.6 per cent of the total global GDP (gross domestic product), states 'Climate Vulnerability Monitor: A Guide to the Cold Calculus of A Hot Planet'.
Survey Shows Business Community Moving Toward Sustainability
October 26, 2012 06:18 AM - RICHARD MATTHEWS, Global Warming is Real
Initially, corporate sustainability was a tertiary practice that focused on reporting; increasingly, it is influencing core strategic business decisions. A proactive stance on sustainability is becoming a competitive necessity to attract investors, source talent, meet the requirements of supply chain partners, and address growing consumer demand. Companies are seeing the value of operating in ways that address environmental concerns, health and safety issues and operational risks. They increasingly understand that good product stewardship, responsible energy consumption, and low carbon practices are necessary components of a competitive business. Although a sustainability strategy can be onerous, it is an increasingly essential aspect of a viable business. Engaging sustainability requires that companies are innovative and that they know consumers. Obviously, they must avoid greenwashing and they must tie sustainability to their core business. Some of the contemporary realities that are emerging around the issue of sustainability involve collaborative approaches and securing appropriate external certification.
Nearly Curtains for the Mexican Wolf
October 25, 2012 09:24 AM - David A Gabel, ENN
In North America, the gray wolf has been nearly driven to extinction. Only thanks to recent conservation efforts in places like Yellowstone and other areas of North America have gray wolf populations bounced back. Unfortunately, this is not the case for a subspecies of gray wolf living in the US Southwest and Mexico, the Mexican wolf. There are few other land animals on the continent that have come closer to extinction. They were ruthlessly hunted and trapped by ranchers and the federal government since the 1800s. The Mexican wolf has been reduced to captive breeding in order to keep their species going. But this conservation effort appears to be failing, as it is plagued with mismanagement and conflicting rules.
Are Environmentalists basing positions on science, or not?
October 23, 2012 06:17 AM - Fred Pearce, Yale Environment360
On issues ranging from genetically modified crops to nuclear power, environmentalists are increasingly refusing to listen to scientific arguments that challenge standard green positions. This approach risks weakening the environmental movement and empowering climate contrarians. From Rachel Carson's Silent Spring to James Hansen's modern-day tales of climate apocalypse, environmentalists have long looked to good science and good scientists and embraced their findings. Often we have had to run hard to keep up with the crescendo of warnings coming out of academia about the perils facing the world. A generation ago, biologist Paul Ehrlich's The Population Bomb and systems analysts Dennis and Donella Meadows' The Limits to Growth shocked us with their stark visions of where the world was headed. No wide-eyed greenie had predicted the opening of an ozone hole before the pipe-smoking boffins of the British Antarctic Survey spotted it when looking skyward back in 1985. On issues ranging from ocean acidification and tipping points in the Arctic to the dangers of nanotechnology, the scientists have always gotten there first — and the environmentalists have followed.
Solar Power Adoption is Contagious
October 22, 2012 03:26 PM - Dani Thé, ENN
Apparently doing something good can be contagious. Or at least this seems to be the case with solar power adoption. According to a study by Yale and New York University published though Marketing Science, individuals are most likely to install solar panels on their home if one of their neighbors has also done so. The study, "Peer Effects in Diffusion of Photovoltaic Panels", took a close look at solar installation clusters between January 2001 and December 2011 throughout the state of California. They found that a resident was most likely to install solar panels if solar panels had already been installed within that resident's same zip code.
Mississippi river diversions play an important role in wetlands
October 22, 2012 08:32 AM - University of Pennsylvania through EurekAlert
The extensive system of levees along the Mississippi River has done much to prevent devastating floods in riverside communities. But the levees have also contributed to the loss of Louisiana's wetlands. By holding in floodwaters, they prevent sediment from flowing into the watershed and rebuilding marshes, which are compacting under their own weight and losing ground to sea-level rise. Reporting in Nature Geoscience, a team of University of Pennsylvania geologists and others used the Mississippi River flood of the spring of 2011 to observe how floodwaters deposited sediment in the Mississippi Delta. Their findings offer insight into how new diversions in the Mississippi River's levees may help restore Louisiana's wetlands. While scientists and engineers have previously proposed ways of altering the levee system to restore some of the natural wetland-building ability of the Mississippi, this is among the only large-scale experiments to demonstrate how these modifications might function.
Top 5 Green Jobs on the Rise in the United States
October 22, 2012 08:18 AM - Frank Conley, Triple Pundit
Nowadays, you see the newest and latest products marketed by components that relate to the benefit of the environment. The green economy is rising by the second. Businesses and people are placing more of a value on "going green." The attention on the global environment is growing. For this purpose, more jobs have been created or altered to go green.
How can Conservation Efforts help species adapt to climate change?
October 19, 2012 06:33 AM - Science Daily
As the climate changes, conservationists are divided over the most effective way to preserve animal and plant diversity because they cannot simply preserve the status quo. Ensuring species can shift to track the climate to which they are suited is a complex problem, especially when there are competing demands on land use. A simple prediction is that more habitat would help species to shift, but it is not obvious what the best spatial locations for habitat would be. A new study led by scientists at the University of York says that well placed habitat "stepping stones" would lead to faster range expansion than the equivalent amount and quality of habitat tacked onto existing sites. The result applies to situations where a species will have to cross gaps of several times the distance one individual can normally traverse, i.e. to species whose habitat is fairly rare.
Will we need to pull carbon out of the atmosphere to save ourselves?
October 18, 2012 09:24 AM - Jeremy Hance, MONGABAY.COM
This year saw the Arctic sea ice extent fall to a new and shocking low, while the U.S. experienced it warmest month ever on record (July), beating even Dust Bowl temperatures. Meanwhile, a flood of new research has convincingly connected a rise in extreme weather events, especially droughts and heatwaves, to global climate change, and a recent report by the DARA Group and Climate Vulnerability Forum finds that climate change contributes to around 400,000 deaths a year and costs the world 1.6 percent of its GDP, or $1.2 trillion. All this and global temperatures have only risen about 0.8 degrees Celsius (1.44 degrees Fahrenheit) since the early Twentieth Century. Scientists predict that temperatures could rise between 1.1 degrees Celsius (2 degrees Fahrenheit) to a staggering 6.4 degrees Celsius (11.5 degrees Fahrenheit) by the end of the century.

Corporate Advocacy Program™
Their sales people were friendly and helpful. The company gave me a non-binding $1300 quote for 6000 lbs. At that time we had agreed on paying by weight (not volume) and we also had agreed to pay by credit card and the carrier agreed to waive their usual 3% transaction fee. All of this failed to hold up.
We were told to expect the movers to show up around noon they showed up late and in fact didn't leave the house until after midnight! Not pleasant when the community we were in is quite strict about noise and there's an 18 wheeler in close quarters idling for hours especially until the wee hours of the morning.
The movers were unprepared and unprofessional. They didn't have enough blankets and proper packing materials with them. For example, they unfortuately, packed desk shelves and also chairs inside wardrobe boxes -- and for the ones packed this way they were *all* damaged upon arrival at the destination (i.e. two desk shelves *shattered*, holes in chair upholstery). They failed to do a complete inventory of all the items moved. Almost all screws, washers, shelf pins, etc. for items disassembled by the movers ended up missing!
We could go on... but hopefully you get the picture. Once the movers are near we get a call saying we need to have $3300 in order to get our furniture. Needless to say we were a bit shocked. Don't know where they got that price but we told them we had an estimate of $1300 for 6000 lbs. and agreed to pay by weight not by volume... they tells us they never got weighed and they have no plans to get weighed!
We end up "dealing" with some guy named Reuben who was completely unhelpful, refused to honor the original agreement and he claims we have more than $600 in packing materials as if that helps justify a jump from $1300 to 3300! (Note: that's way outside the allowed 110% of the estimate!)
Crazy. The movers threatened to put our belongings in holding if we didn't pay. I'm no lawyer, nor do I want to have to get one just to get my furniture -- clearly some people realize the economics that the "little" people will pay just to get through the problems instead of having to hire lawyers and go with their own possessions for weeks/months/... I still don't see how it is fair that when there is a dispute a family loses their furniture especially when the mover has changed the rules mid-transport.
Anyway, we ended up paying over $2200 in a cashiers check (yeah they wouldn't even honor the credit card agreement) just to get this nightmare over but hopefully you can avoid these problems in the future and learn from our experience.
In the ideal world the moving company might apologize and make amends for the hassle, overcharging, damage and lost materials but I won't hold my breath.
Any company that treats their customers like this doesn't deserve your business.
I recommend staying far away from Destionation Movers!

native app
A native application (native app) is an application program that has been developed for use on a particular platform or device.
Because native apps are written for a specific platform, they can interact with and take advantage of operating system features and other software that is typically installed on that platform. Because a native app is built for a particular device and its operating system, it has the ability to use device-specific hardware and software, meaning that native apps can take advantage of the latest technology available on mobile devices such as a global positioning system (GPS) and camera. This can be construed as an advantage for native apps over Web apps or mobile cloud apps.

The term "native app" is often mentioned in the context of mobile computing because mobile applications have traditionally been written to work on a specific device platform. A native app is installed directly on a mobile device and developers create a separate app version for each mobile device. The native app may be stored on the mobile device out of the box, or it can be downloaded from a public or private app store and installed on the mobile device. Data associated with the native app is also stored on the device, although data can be stored remotely and accessed by the native app. Depending on the nature of the native app, Internet connectivity may not be required.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. (KKCO)-- The Grand Junction Tigers got some revenge on Moffat County with a 43-32 win at GJHS.
The Tigers (10-4) got a scare in the third quarter. Jamie Derrieux had to head to the sidelines after slamming her head into the wall on a break away. The senior did not play for the rest of the third quarter, but returned for the fourth.
Derrieux scored a game-high 17 despite missing the third quarter, and the Tigers avenged a one point loss to the Bulldogs back in Dec. Sydni Brandon and Kricket Adleman both added eight points.

Another question I ran into:
I use Gravity Forms to let users create a CPT.
With the form they can also upload pictures.
One is set to be the featured image, the others are attached to the post.This works well
I now want to use MIM so that the admin can see the pictures that are uploaded to that post from the backend, and that she can manage them by deleting them or uploading more pictures.
I installed MIM and the metabox shows up in my CPT edit screen. However, the pictures are not shown.
How can I get the uploade pictures to show in the MIM?

Perspective is a tough commodity to find when considering New Mexico's economic performance in comparison to other states. The coming study of New Mexico as a place for investment will give us a good idea of our fit for a narrowly defined case.
Yet the broadest possible perspective is the necessary basis for thoughtful policy decisions. Fortunately, the Metro Denver Economic Development Corp. does excellent work comparing Colorado to other states and the nation. We can be a free rider, as they say in economics.
Our riding starts with "Resource Rich Colorado," issued in December to describe "Colorado's National and Global Position in the Energy Economy." Find the report at www.metrodenver.org/news-center/publications.html.
Isn't life beautiful? Isn't life gay? Isn't life the perfect way to pass the time away?
I happen to like life. Not because the alternative is worse, but rather because it's like strolling down a buffet of infinite choices, an endless avenue of experiences, a 24-hour a day variety show hosted by all sorts of people.
And sometimes it's more like a talk show where you want to stand, pick up your chair, and smash it against the guy sitting next to you. Yeah, life can be fun.
But lately I get the ugly feeling that I'm on the wrong side of the screen.
My world is missing so many wonderful things that less dimensional people seem to enjoy.
This is to warn the citizens of Los Alamos that an effort is being made to discredit the currently proposed re-design of NM 502 (Trinity Drive), which some have called the Zimmerman option, using two myths:
Myth #1. "The proposed roadway would provide lower capacity than the current road and would increase congestion."
Myth #2. "The roundabout would lead to 'built-in' traffic conflicts and would present an unsafe environment for cars, motorcycles, and pedestrians."
These myths contradict the judgments of professional traffic engineers who have been hired by the county and have presented their findings at meetings of the NM 502 Technical Advisory Committee (TAC).
In 1982, I learned more about fish, Lake Michigan, and Indian treaty rights than I thought possible. The Ottawa and Chippewa tribes had won a Supreme Court case that reaffirmed their rights to fish on the lake. White commercial and sport fishermen were so riled, they smashed Indian boats and roughed up Indian fishermen.
I was contracted for six months to build a public information campaign that would calm public sentiment enough for the tribes to fish in peace. I brought with me from New Mexico a familiarity with Indian issues and PR experience defending unpopular causes (an electric utility).
Gov. Susana Martinez wants to exempt small businesses paying less than $200 a month in gross receipts tax from having to pay the tax.
She says it will affect over 40,000 small businesses in the state, most of which are one-person businesses.
I am one of those businesses and the chances are fairly good that you may be one too.
And for the life of me, I can't figure out how it is going to help anyone. Supposedly it will help me hire an employee.
This column appears in many newspapers around the state but even if it appeared in all of them, it isn't enough to share with anyone but my wife, who does the bookkeeping for free.
My youngest son played T-ball a couple of years ago. He didn't really play. He kept the dugout safe, though.
He made sure the dugout bench was warm by lying on it.
He kept track of the equipment too. When asked to go out to the field to play, he refused because it was too cold.
I am not even sure if he went up to bat. He probably did, because that is the fun part. He sat on the ground when he was at base.
He was a horrible T-ball player. But, regardless of his complete lack of participation he got a trophy at the end of the season. It was a cute little bobble-head thing. He liked his trophy.
I am convinced that having a big box store on the Trinity site would generate the most revenue for our public schools. The lease agreement that has been negotiated between the county and NADG allows for the development of the site without requiring any financial contribution from the county. This is beneficial to the county because other alternatives to a big box store would most likely have the county taking on the role of developer with the county making lease payments to the public schools directly.
We face a significant decision on the Trinity Site. It is essential to consider the impact on future generations and closely look at the business details because the agreement will last 73 years.
Whether or not one agrees with the project, the citizens and staff who worked tirelessly should be thanked.
Hundreds of hours, good faith and personal commitment mark their efforts.
In business terms, we are playing a very weak hand.
The worst economic downturn since the Depression serves as the backdrop to our effort to bring new retail to a community struggling to attract business.
It is not surprising that the results are uninspiring.
In the upcoming meeting this Tuesday night, the county council will be considering moving forward in creating a county broadband network called the Community Broadband Network (CBN). The council vote on Tuesday could be one of the most important votes for our future needs. The country is moving forward and the question is will Los Alamos County join in the future of our nation -- or be left behind?
The CBN is a complete fiber network and would include every home and business, extending fiber into every premises. Currently, some of the Internet services from major providers are not adequate for the coming revolution in digital services.
It's disturbing the way key decisions of state import — decisions, which properly should be left to the states' legislatures and governors — are more and more being made or re-made by federal judges.
Only a couple of weeks ago, federal District Judge William P. Johnson issued a preliminary injunction blocking enforcement of a 2009 law passed by the legislature and signed by then-Gov. Bill Richardson limiting election year contributions by individuals or certain organizations to political campaign committees.
This is a state law that emerged by fits and starts after years of legislative struggle and compromises calculated to reign in the obscene sums of money it takes to run for public office today.

Fox in Socks (Beginner Books(R)) (original 1965; edition 1965)
by Dr. Seuss
Work details
Fox in Socks (Beginner Books) by Dr. Seuss (1965)
No current Talk conversations about this book.
This book is a book of tongue twisters from a fox in socks to a tweetle beetle noodle poodle bottled paddled muddled duddled fuddled wuddled fox in socks. This book can be used in a early elementary to introduce ending sounds, rhyme and the creation word families.
I liked "Fox in Socks" for two reasons. First, I saw this book being read to a first grade class and they loved it. The teacher made the theme of the day "wacky socks", so all the students had funky socks pulled over their pants and they really enjoyed this. They also thought it was funny to see the teacher trying to read quickly without messing up any of the tongue twisters. Second, I liked this book because it gives children the opportunity to explore Dr. Suess. I believe all of his books are so fun for children, and if children have the opportunity to read one or get one read to them, I believe it will open doors to an interest in literature. While I was observing this book, the teacher did an activity with shared reading, and the students repeated silly tongue twisters back after she read them the first time. The main idea of this book is presented through the different rhyming combinations that Fox presents Mr. Knox with. The book has one character who is peppy and another who is cranky, but it adds humor, which is entertaining for children.
I liked this book for two reasons. First, I loved the writing of this story because the fun rhyming scheme that teach children to be able to hear the sounds of rhyming words, like fox, socks, Knox. Second, I liked the language in this story, the wording is patterned with words and tongue twisters and the language is quite descriptive even if some of the words don't make any sense. It is a great introductory book to teach children how to notice the basic sound of words and how some words sound similar to one another.
loved reading the rhymes out loud
Summary: This book is great to read to children because it is funny and the words can be tricky to read. Fox and Knox are the main characters in the book. Fox tries to get Knox to say tongue twister rhymes, but Knox gets frustrated. Eventually in the end Knox learns his own tongue twister and shares it with fox by packing him in a bottle with tweedle bettles. Fox in Socks is a great book to teach children about repetition and rhyming words.
Personal Reaction:
When I read this book, I instantly added it to my list of Dr. Seuss books to read to my classroom. His books are great for any age group!
Classroom Extension Ideas: One way to have this book as a lesson would be to have the students make shaker tweetle beetle battle bottles by using empty water bottles, uncooked rice, and mini toy assorted bugs. Students shake the bottles and pretend the bugs are battling.
As we mouth his refusals, we ourselves conform: we, readers of books aloud, have pronounced exactly the tongue-tying utterance that Knox declares himself unable, or unwilling, to say.

Wikipedia in English
Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 0394800389, Hardcover)"This Fox is a tricky fox. He'll try to get your tongue in trouble." Dr. Seuss gives fair warning to anyone brave enough to read along with the Fox in Socks, who likes to play tongue-twisting games with his friend Mr. Knox. "Here's an easy game to play. Here's an easy thing to say.... New socks. Two socks. Whose socks? Sue's socks." But Mr. Fox Socks isn't about to let Knox off so easy. Soon Goo-Goose is choosing to chew chewy gluey blue goo, while tweetle beetles battle with paddles in a puddle (in case you were wondering, that's called a "tweetle beetle puddle paddle battle"). Mr. Knox gets exasperated: "I can't blab such blibber blubber! My tongue isn't made of rubber." But he catches on to the game before it's all through. One of Seuss's best, this must-read-aloud classic is guaranteed to get many giggles out of readers young and old. (Ages 4 to 8) --Paul Hughes

That sums up this game. All you do is kill people constantly, for about five full hours. The best parts was when you were in his space ship. I could kick all sorts of butt in it.
I give this game 2 Boxing gloves. It was great, but it was way to short to be good. I also didn't like the graphics and sound in some places.

Augusta, Ga (WRDW)----For the first time, since both the city and county consolidated, there's a woman in charge. Her name is Tamika Allen. She is running day to day operations as the interim city administrator and answers to 10 bosses.
"I mean I wouldn't want to work for me.I mean it's really not easy and I believe in letting employees do their job," said Commissioner Bill Fennoy.
If majority commissioners disapprove of the administrator's job performance, they could get fired. You can talk to Fred Russell about it,
he held the job for nearly 10 years before getting canned last month.
According to the city clerk, the commission didn't interview other candidates when they hired Russell a decade ago.
"I can't talk about what happened years ago I wasn't there. I do know that the colleagues expressed to the media that we want someone who is qualified and certified," said Commissioner Wayne Guifoyle.
Now, commissioners need to find a permanent replacement. "I think a minimum of a master's degree. I think a minimum of five years experience in a city the size of Augusta or larger," said Commissioner Bill Fennoy.
"Somebody that's fiscally conservative and has the proof to show it. We need someone who can actually manage this government and show what experience they have to do the job," said Guifoyle.
Russell left the position making around $130,000. The next administrator could make even more.
"For comparable cities, I have seen an increase in that position's salary range. We will look at that and figure out what's best for the city," said Commissioner Mary Davis.
For now, Allen will keep the city running until permanent administrator is named.

A 3 bedrooms lodge designed to sleep upto 8 people could do with a little more comfort seating in lounge. Only 2 settees.... This is the only fault I could find.
But a hot tub on the huge decking area would be a perfect finish!

ROCHESTER — Twenty-eight-year-old Jimmy Stewart remains held in jail on $5,000 cash bail after waiving arraignment last week and entering a plea of not guilty to robbing an acquaintance in December.
Stewart, who police say is a transient, is accused of pushing a man to the ground on Springfield Court and robbing him of money he had in his pocket. According to police, Stewart stole about $1,600 from the alleged victim.
Amanda Demers, 25, also a transient, was also charged in connection to the incident, and is facing conspiracy to commit robbery.
Stewart, who is charged with felony robbery, has a dispositional conference scheduled at Strafford County Superior Court on April 15.

Gasso, S, Hegg, DA (1998). Comparison of columnar aerosol optical properties measured by the MODIS airborne simulator with in situ measurements: A case study. REMOTE SENSING OF ENVIRONMENT, 66(2), 138-152.
AbstractAirborne in situ and airborne remote sensing methods are used to measure the aerosol optical properties of a biomass burning plume which extended over the ocean during the Sulfate, clouds And Radiation (SCAR) field experiment in the summer of 1994. The University of Washington Convair C131 in situ instrumentation directly measured aerosol characteristics such as size distribution and scattering coefficient at a particular altitude and also measured the optical depth below the aircraft by a lidar instrument mounted on the plane. Almost simultaneously with the C131 pass, radiances were measured by the MODIS Airborne Simulator mounted in the ER-2 NASA aircraft and used to compute optical depths and particle size distribution parameters. These were compared with the same measurements taken by the in situ platform. The effective radii derived by the MAS retrieval algorithm (0.06-0.08 mu m) are consistently smaller than those from the in situ samples taken in this study (0.10-0.14 mu m). The comparison of MAS optical depths and lidar optical depths measured from the in situ platform indicates that the MAS optical depths agree within the range 0.4DOI:ISSN:0034-4257
