Twiggy: Forever Fabulous and Fashionable2011-09-07 10 68 Share Tweet
It's all-out fashion week here on Lomography's Magazine! Today, let us all twist and shout as Twiggy, "The Face of '66," blows us away with her eternally voguish looks and style.
During her fashion reign in the '60s, Twiggy (born as Lesley Hornby), the world's first and foremost supermodel, was definitely "all that" — with her androgynous haircut to-die-for, skinny figure, angelic and beautifully modeled facial features, and illustrious eyelashes, her stirring style captured the hearts of countless teenagers. And of course, fashion photographers adored her. Her spectacular rise to fame began when she was only 16 years young.
Twiggy in psychedelic technicolor:
Her wide eyes, well-sculpted jaw structure, and scarce freckles — perfect in every way!
Twiggy in stunning black and white:
Her face in monochrome pictures is as equally disarming as it is in multicolor.
Twiggy in magazine covers:
Her photographs graced various prime fashion magazines such as Journal, Seventeen, and Vogue, to name a few.
Twiggy and her faux eyelashes:
Aside from her endless legs and waif-like physique, Twiggy will always be known for her extraordinary lashes — these fancy, tiny eye-poppers may be artificial but they have become a permanent look of the 1960s. Thanks to our darling, Twiggy, here's how she used to dramatize her lashes!
Twiggy and famous fashion photographers:
Twiggy was also photographed professionally by noted photographers such as Bert Stern, Cecil Beaton, Melvin Sokolsky, Richard Avedon, and Steven Meisel.
Twiggy and many more!
Twiggy the supermodel was not just a lady with good looks — she is a jill-of-all-trades! She proved herself as a successful actress in both film and television. She was also a recording artist. Below is a vintage video clip of her being interviewed and showing off her cutesy dance moves and modelling poses.
To date, the ever-lovely doe-eyed Miss Lesley Hornby continues with her career as a leading role model for women's fashion and style…
Twiggy is, indeed, a living (and a very fashionable one) legend.

Cirque Dreams will present "Pop Goes the Rock" at 7:30 p.m. March 2 at the Community Arts Center, 220 W. Fourth St.
"Pop Goes the Rock" is a musical of unexpected sights and sounds that explode on stage like a rock 'n' roll party set in a carnival funhouse.
Created and directed by Neil Goldberg, this one-of-a-kind variety show features a mash-up of celebrated pop and rock tunes spanning the decades.
Article Photos
Goldberg, who has 14 productions under his belt, said he has no trouble keeping busy.
"I've being doing Cirque productions for about 20 years," he said. "They get more complex and more detailed ... as an artist, I'm always trying to improve."
Goldberg said his inspiration for "Pop Goes the Rock" comes from his love of music as an art form.
"[The production] features music that resonates with people and reminds me of place, a time or an occurrence in my life," he said. "The genre of performance artistry has been embraced by the world and blends the emotion of the song with the motion of dance."
Goldberg attributed the success of the Cirque productions in part to what people have seen on television with shows like "Glee," through reality show contests, or in productions seen in Las Vegas and on Broadway.
"This show features dancers from the MTV show 'America's Best Dance Crew' and includes 21 performers spanning eight continents," Goldberg said. "They are layered into the performance with a band that performs live on stage in zany costumes."
When it came to selecting the music for this show, Goldberg said he spent two years working on the list and meeting with Sony executives to secure licensing rights, which was the most challenging, complex and labor-intensive part of the show.
"These are all recognizable songs and chart-topping hits from the past five, six, seven decades," Goldberg said. "I listened to more than 10,000 songs over seven or eight months to whittle the list to 50, which became 23."
Songs featured in the performance include:
"Call Me Irresponsible" by Frank Sinatra, 1963.
"No More Mr. Nice Guy" by Alice Cooper, 1973.
"I Love the Nightlife" by Alicia Bridges, 1978.
"I Want Candy" by Bow Wow Wow, 1982.
"Jump (for My Love)" by the Pointer Sisters, 1983.
"The Heat is On" by Glenn Frey, 1985.
"Zoot Suit Riot" by the Cherry Poppin' Daddies, 1997.
"Beautiful" by Christina Aguilera, 2002.
"Womanizer" by Britney Spears, 2008.
"We're taking songs that are familiar and modernizing them and mashing them up," Goldberg said. "This is a rock concert, a pop musical and cirque show all in one."
Goldberg said audiences can expect a very surreal, carnival-like funhouse on the stage draped in colorful lights and bright costumes.
"The center of the stage features a Jack in the Box who comes out of his box," Goldberg said. "During the 2-hour performance, the characters try to capture Jack to put him back in the box."
Goldberg said the show was in pre-production for a year and the cast has been performing for about a month before they went on the road.
"They're [audience] gonna think this show's been there a month because it's so complex," Goldberg said. "This company creates high-quality production spectacles to all cities, not just big cities.
"This is one performance for one day in Williamsport," Goldberg said. "You don't have to go to Vegas or Broadway to see a show like this."
Tickets range from $22.50 to $40 and may be ordered online at www.caclive.com or by calling 326-2424.
"People are fascinated by what is next, what is new and what is different," Goldberg said. "And they all come together in 'Pop Goes the Rock'."

Published July 11, 2013
More than 150 communications, alumni relations and development professionals flocked to UB on June 26 to attend a one-day conference featuring fundraising communications guru Tom Ahern.
Participants from 42 colleges, universities, private schools and other institutions arrived from as far away as New York, Philadelphia, Toronto and Washington, D.C., to learn about "The Science and Secrets of Effective Donor Persuasion" from the man considered one of the world's top authorities on increasing revenue through donor communications. UB's Office of Development Communications hosted the daylong presentation.
CASE—the Council for Advancement and Support of Education—partially sponsored the event, which featured advice on how to best promote programs, endowments and initiatives to engage and retain supporters while increasing income.
Valerie Ingram, director of donor relations at St. Lawrence University in Canton, N.Y., said the UB event was well worth the drive to hear from Ahern, author of four books on donor communications whose recent client list includes Save the Children, PBS, the National Parks Conservation Association and numerous universities and hospital systems.

State-owned utility Santee Cooper signed off on a new rate Friday to help attract new or expanding industries by offering them savings on their electric bills.
The Moncks Corner-based agency's board of directors also approved two grant programs totaling $42.5 million to recruit industry throughout the Palmetto State.
The new "economic development" rate for large industry could lower power bills by as much as 30 percent initially for new or expanding businesses with a required minimum of two megawatts of new electric load, enough to power about 2,000 homes.
To qualify, industries must also make a $1 million investment or hire at least 50 new employees. The rate is designed to provide the biggest benefit over a company's start-up years and gradually taper off over six years.
Eligible companies must commit to a 10-year electric contract and other provisions of Santee Cooper's industrial rate schedule.
The utility already has a special rate for industries requiring at least one megawatt of load and employing 35 people or making a $500,000 capital investment. That incentive can lower total bills initially by about 20 percent. It tapers off over five years.
One of the newly approved grants will go to the S.C. Power Team Site Readiness Fund. It will award up to $6 million a year for projects in areas served by the state's electric cooperatives.
Also, a new Santee Cooper Municipal Site Readiness Fund of $2.5 million a year will offer grants for similar projects in South Carolina municipalities served as wholesale customers by the utility.
Money from the two funds is available for five years.
All grants require a 100 percent match, and all assets must be owned by a government entity or subdivision and be served by either an electric cooperative or municipal customer of Santee Cooper.
"Site selectors have many options in placing a new industry, and Santee Cooper is committed to helping localities stand out from the competition," said Lonnie Carter, Santee Cooper's president and CEO. "This money will move projects from almost-ready to open-for-business. These grants will also address areas of our state that are most in need of jobs and capital investment."
A vacant building that isn't quite ready to move into is one example of a project that could be eligible for the grant money, said Santee Cooper spokeswoman Mollie Gore.
"The locality can apply for a grant, and we would take a look at it," she said.
The eligibility requirements will include a strong potential for immediate or short-term job creation and capital investment. Another key factor is the location of the project.

Motorola's new Z10 features on-board video editing
January 10, 2008 Billed as the complete, pocket-sized, mobile film studio, the new Motorola Z10 3G mobile handset is designed for video capture and editing on the fly, shooting at 30 frames per second via a 3.2 megapixel camera and featuring the in-built ability to splice together scenes and add commentary, titles or soundtracks.
The ergonomic "kick-slider" design (which uses spun stainless steel, polished metallic finish and soft-feel textures) houses a 2.2" QVGA screen that displays video at 30 fps and the 3.2 megapixel camera features instant launch enabling "quickdraw" photo capture in 1.5 seconds. A Superfast burst mode takes up to three still images a second and in addition to auto focus, the camera sports an intelligent auto-save function that saves images directly to the on-board media gallery by content type.
Optimize for content sharing with sites such as YouTube, Google, Yahoo! and ShoZu, the Z10 features 3.5G HSDPA, GSM/GPRS/EDGE, and Symbian/UIQ software. The external storage slot is future proofed to support an external memory card with up to 32GB of capacity (when available).
MOTO Z10 is expected to be available in Q1 2008.

My colleague Duncan wrote a post relatively recently around the new mclock I/O scheduler which VMware introduced in vSphere 5.5. He also mentioned some caveats with the new scheduler, especially around the I/O size (32K) used with the IOPS setting, which may lead to some unexpected behaviour. As Duncan mentioned, the reason for introducing the new scheduler is primarily to provide a better I/O scheduling mechanism that allows for limits, shares and reservations. Unfortunately, we didn't do a very good job of announcing this change in I/O scheduling, or documenting the behaviour, and it has led to a number of additional questions from our customers. I hope to address some of these here.Continue reading
Tag Archives: Storage I/O Control
Does Storage DRS work with Adaptive Queuing?
Many of you will be aware that Storage DRS uses Storage I/O Control (SIOC) for load balancing based on I/O metrics. However a statement in one of our white papers has raised a few questions recently with both our customers and partners. The statement is as follows:
"Queue depth throttling is not compatible with Storage DRS". (pg.34) from http://www.vmware.com/pdf/Perf_Best_Practices_vSphere5.5.pdf.
This assertion led many to believe that Storage DRS would not work well with Adaptive Queuing (AQ), another of VMware's queue depth throttling mechanisms. However internally, many felt that this wasn't a true statement, but some work was needed to verify that it would not cause any issues. This led to a number of tests being run with Storage DRS and both of our queue throttling features, SIOC and Adaptive Queuing. I am using this post to share those results.
Adaptive Queueing vs. Storage I/O Control
This post is to look at two different technologies available in vSphere to manage the queue depth on your ESXi host(s). A queue determines how many outstanding I/Os can be sent to a disk. In the case of vSphere environments, where many hosts can be doing I/O to the same shared disk device, it can be helpful to throttle the LUN queue depth from time to time when congestion arises. In this post, we will compare and contrast Adaptive Queues with Storage I/O Control (SIOC).
Why is the siocActiveTimePercentage counter only ever 0% or 100%?
Last week I published a blog article about new performance counters in vSphere 5.1 for monitoring Storage I/O Control (SIOC). Soon after publishing, I received a question about the siocActiveTimePercentage counter, which only ever showed 0% or 100% values.
Monitoring Storage I/O Control activity with new vSphere 5.1 counters
There was an interesting question posted recently around how you could monitor Storage I/O Control activity. Basically, how would one know if SIOC had kicked in and was actively throttling I/O queues? Well, in vSphere 5.1, there are some new performance counters that can help you with that.
vSphere 5.1 Storage Enhancements – Part 8: Storage I/O Control
Storage I/O Control (SIOC) was initially introduced in vSphere 4.1 to provide I/O prioritization of virtual machines running on a cluster of ESXi hosts that had access to shared storage. It extended the familiar constructs of shares and limits, which existed for CPU and memory, to address storage utilization through a dynamic allocation of I/O queue slots across a cluster of ESXi servers. The purpose of SIOC is to address the 'noisy neighbour' problem, i.e. a low priority virtual machine impacting other higher priority virtual machines due to the nature of the application and its I/O running in that low priority VM.

Adequacy BP .45 caliber round ball for deer

> Adequacy BP .45 caliber round ball for deer
December 18, 2013, 09:25 PM
Curious to get some thoughts from the group and to hear if anyone has taken white tail deer with a black powder front stuffer shooting a .45 cal round ball.

Shot at approx. 25yds, deer went approx. 35yds downhill. Ruger Old Army, homecast lead ball, 60gr of Shockey's Gold.
Loyalist Dave
December 19, 2013, 09:46 AM
Absolutely doable. Shot placement is always a big part with a muzzleloader, whether it's a .45 or a .54 or other sizes. I like 70 grains of 3Fg in my .45, and coincidentally, I like the same powder load in my .54. I go for taking out both lungs. They do not go very far, and in addition to being a much smaller target..., the heart is delicious, so I don't want to shoot it to pieces. Go for both lungs...
December 20, 2013, 10:37 AM
For the first 8 or 10 years I hunted with a Muzzleloader, I used an old .45 caliber hawken styled rifle that belonged to my mother. For the first few years I used round ball and I took multiple deer with it, between 10 and about 60ish yards.
I recovered one bullet that had gone in one side, through both lungs, and lodged in the rib cage of the far side. I wish I could find it to post a picture of it, but it is in a box somewhere out in the garage. It had almost completely flattened out. It looked more like a lead nickel than a round ball. On one side the stitching of the patch was clearly visible, imprinted in the lead.
So, while I can't say how effective they'd be at longer distances, I can tell you that on a good broadside shot at 60 yards and less they will take whitetail.
1911 guy
December 21, 2013, 06:37 PM
Plenty medicine. Start at minimum load, work up in five grain increments. When accuracy starts to fall off, reduce to the previous five grain increment and stick with it for your hunting load. This will give you the best velocity and accuracy for a hunting load.
December 22, 2013, 08:30 AM
My flintlock rifle is 45 caliber. I've only killed one doe with it which is not a true test of lethality but that's how my luck has gone.
The deer was broadside to me at approx. 50 yards or so. I shot into the chest and the doe bounded away as if unhurt. But after a run of less than 50 yards the animal toppled over and kicked a bit. During field dressing, I noted a fairly wide wound channel through both lungs. The bullet was never found.
Dan'l Boone favored the 45 caliber over all others and he took many bears with his rifle, too. Combination of bullet placement and bullet performance is what gets the job done.
January 2, 2014, 11:01 PM
I hunted many years with a TC Seneca in 45 cal. Perfect broadside lung shots out to 60 yards worked fine with a round ball. Longer or angle shots not so good. I moved on to using Maxiballs with great success out to 100 yds. My gun was peep sight equipped.

Recently, we have noticed our 1x SDS running buffer becoming 'contaminated'.
It becomes thick, more viscous then our 10x stock or gooey/goopy. After running and transfering our gel, ponceau staining of the membrane shows a high background starting at the dye front and continuing to enter the gel throughout the run as though there is some sort of contaminating protein in the buffer. The 10x stock is fine and 1x is made in a clean glass bottle with autoclaved water and make in 2L batches which is not kept for more than a couple weeks at a time. 1x buffer is not reused.
What could possibly grow in SDS? Another lab that also works in the space has seen a similar problem. Does anyone have any idea what this might be?

It might be an unwanted chemical reaction. You can visibly tell if it's a microbial contamination. Viscosity would most likely be chemical carry-over? Since another lab in the same space saw the same problem, maybe it's the water source contamination or cleaning apparatus contamination. Autoclaves can transmit contamination of chemicals etc.
Our lab uses filtered Millipore water (the ones with the tank system).

A great restaurant never rests on its laurels. Six Burner was good several years ago when we had our first meal there, but they have since built on their experience to elevate themselves to a great restaurant. An original menu paired with a comfortable and elegant space and professional and personable service makes Six Burner one of Richmond's best eateries.
Ever since Six Burner announced last year that they have become the only restaurant in the area certified by the Department of Health to cook using the sous vide method, we had been itching to try it out. Utilized by some of the best chefs in the country, the sous vide method uses a combination of precise temperature and vacuum sealing to prepare meats and fishes. We paid a visit to this Fan mainstay recently to check out this new technique and see what else chef Philip Denny has up his sleeve nowadays.

Studio nabs rights to quirky McGinley comedy
Magnolia Pictures has picked up domestic rights to helmer Sean McGinley's "The Great Buck Howard," starring John Malkovich, Colin Hanks, Emily Blunt and Steve Zahn. Quirky pic preemed at Sundance in January 2008 to anticipated hype without nabbing a buyer.
Malkovich plays Howard, a once-famous mentalist, who, by the hands of fate, is pushed from obscurity back into the limelight. Plans are for a fall rollout. Pic was produced by Bristol Bay Productions with Tom Hanks and Gary Goetzman's Playtone Pictures.
" 'The Great Buck Howard' is a rare find in the current marketplace — a charming, incredibly likeable film that has something for everyone," said Magnolia prexy Eamonn Bowles.
Bristol and sister company Walden Media are owned by Anschutz Film Group. Magnolia is the theatrical arm of the Wagner/Cuban companies which include Landmark theaters, 2929 Productions and hi-def cablers HDNet and HDNet Movies.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., told the state's lawmakers this week the time has come to outlaw prostitution in Nevada.
"Parents don't want their children to look out of a school bus and see a brothel, or live in a state with the wrong kind of red lights," he said in comments before a joint session of the Legislature on Tuesday.
Nevada is the only state in America where the sale of sex is legal. Prostitution is allowed in counties with less than 400,000 residents. There are currently 10 rural Nevada counties that have brothels. Reid said that the ending of prostitution will bring more businesses to the Silver State.
"Nevada needs to be known as the first place for innovation and investment, not the last place where prostitution is still legal," the majority leader said.
"If we want to attract business to Nevada that puts people back to work, the time has come to end prostitution," he added.
So far, Reid's proposal has been met with a less than cordial response.
"I think everybody is just kind of laughing up their sleeve about it," Assemblyman Pete Goicoechea, a Republican from rural Eureka, told Politico. "I can promise you there's not any kind of a movement to bring a bill forward."
One brothel proprietor warned, "Harry Reid will have to pry the cathouse keys from my cold, dead hands."

Women's Rowing Earns Three Medals in Grand Finals at SIRA Championships
Colonials Win Five Races in Two Days
April 22, 2012
OAK RIDGE, Tenn. - The George Washington women's rowing team won five races on Saturday to advance three boats to Sunday's Grand Finals at the Southern Intercollegiate Rowing Association (SIRA) Championships on Melton Hill Lake.
GW's Varsity 8, JV 8 and Varsity 4 all competed in Sunday's Grand Finals. Each boat won a preliminary heat and/or a semifinal to earn a spot in the Grand Final field for each respective event.
"Overall, it was a good regatta for us," said Head Coach Eric Carcich. "This was our first time at this venue and I think all of our boats raced well."
The Colonials' Varsity 8 boat nearly claimed gold but was edged by 2.7 seconds in the Grand Final by Grand Valley State. On Saturday, the Colonials clocked the fastest time on the course with a time preliminary time of 6:41.20. In the semifinals, the Colonials nearly replicated their previous time and beat Mercyhurst by eight seconds to earn a spot in the Grand Finals.
"The Varsity 8 got into a battle in the Grand Final and it was a great racing experience," said Coach Carcich. "They did a real good job during a high quality race especially down the stretch against a very good Grand Valley crew."
The Varsity 4 also turned in a top preliminary time on Saturday, navigating the course in 7:43.00, which was the second-fastest time of the day. The Colonials placed first in the semifinals ahead of Kansas State to advance to the Grand Finals where they took third place behind winner Nova Southeastern and runner-up K-State.
"The Varsity 4 is getting faster each and every week," said Coach Carcich. "I am very excited to see how they can use this momentum going forward into the next two weeks of training."
The JV8 won a Sunday semifinal to advance to the Grand Final where they took second place behind K-State.
The Colonials return to action on May 5 at the Atlantic 10 Championships on the Cooper River in Camden, N.J.

Klonoa Remake Coming To America
Time to make good on second chances, Wii owners.
It's not everyday people get a chance to make things right, but Americans are getting one now. The Klonoa: Door to Phantomile remake on the Nintendo Wii will be coming to America.
Joystiq is reporting that the remake of the critically lauded PS1 game will arrive under the somewhat simpler moniker "Klonoa," and will utilize the Wii Remote for grabbing and throwing enemies. But for those who are allergic to motion controls of any kind, there's always the Classic Controller and the GameCube controller to help you guide Klonoa.
No word yet on when it'll actually be hitting stores, but that doesn't matter right now. Let's just bask in the glow of second chances.

I've always had a soft spot Klonoa, can't wait for this! It's sad that well crafted platform games seldom get much love these days, hopefully people will see the light. An endless barrage of dark & violent games can get depressing after a while, this will contrast nicely.
NAMCO PLEASE...Posted: Jan 10, 2009 12:00AM PST by colossus17
give us the ps1 game on the PSN, please...please...
My pre-order finger is ready!Posted: Jan 10, 2009 12:00AM PST by Jesse_Dylan
Great news. And even greater news is that I can play with a classic controller.
Wahoo!Posted: Jan 10, 2009 12:00AM PST by Cary Woodham
I'm very glad this is coming to the US (though I'm really not surprised). I hope everyone with a Wii gets this game. It really was one of the best 2-D platformers on the PSOne. It's now my most anticipated game of 2009. --Cary
I don't knowPosted: Jan 09, 2009 12:00AM PST by WAFFLE-MAN

Namco....Posted: Jan 09, 2009 12:00AM PST by MonsterManiac778
I love you , time to dust off the wii
Thank You Namco!Posted: Jan 09, 2009 12:00AM PST by Tattersall
I remember when I was much younger I heard about this game being a hidden gem right around the time Klonoa 2 was being released so I picked up both of them and... WOW! This game is such a glorious example of what 2D gaming can accomplish and I advise anyone who has ever touched a video game to pick this up!
Good NewsPosted: Jan 09, 2009 12:00AM PST by dustinXsays
I'm one of the unfortunate who missed this the first time so I'm happy that there's another chance.
Here's HopingPosted: Jan 09, 2009 12:00AM PST by Mike_Honcho21
that we don't get that messed up remade look for Klonoa. Now we all can whisper, "Hey, I have Klonoa" to our loved ones...even those we pay for.

WEST OLIVE -- The adrenaline-pumping driving conditions of late have frayed the nerves of even the most-experienced motorists.
Sharing the road are young drivers just learning the sensation of a car going out of control on a slippery road.
Snowy roads have been a factor in the deaths of two teens in recent weeks and, late Sunday, played a role in a crash that critically injured two passengers riding in a car with a 19-year-old who police have not named. The crash on 28th Street SE near Eastern Avenue left Alan Martinez, 18, and Wanyae Givens, 12, hospitalized at Spectrum Health Butterworth Hospital.
Police say the only way for teens to learn how to drive on wintry roads is for parents to swallow hard and let their kids take the wheel -- preferably with an adult in the passenger seat.
Along with that, state police and the family of a Lake Odessa native who died when overcorrecting her vehicle hope to provide some practical training for new drivers.
Keisha MacDonald, an 18-year-old woman on the verge of a promising modeling career, was driving late one night about a year ago when she swerved to miss an oncoming tanker on a curve and overcorrected, pitching her car into the heavy truck.
Her mother, Linda MacDonald, wonders whether better road skills might have saved her life. That's why her family is working with the state police to launch a defensive-driving program for new teen drivers this summer in Lansing.
Skid training is a key part of the program, even though slippery roads were not a factor in Keisha MacDonald's death. Participants will get a feel for slippery conditions on a 3-acre state police skid pad, a low-friction, watery surface that simulates a hard-packed snowy road.
Ottawa County Sheriff's Sgt. Steve Austin -- whose 14-year-old daughter is about to begin driver's training -- said parents need to let newly licensed youths try driving in snowy conditions as an adult rides in the passenger seat, provided conditions are safe.
Parents might even start them out in an empty, snowy parking lot to give them a feel for slippery conditions, he said.
"You might sit over in the passenger seat with white knuckles but, ultimately, they need that inclement weather experience," Austin said.
Learning early on about stopping distances and skidding -- and which way to turn the wheel -- can only help when teens are driving alone, he said. Sometimes, driving is dangerous even when parents are supervising from the passenger seat.
Austin recalled a fatal crash two years ago in which a 15-year-old Spring Lake Township driver, too young to drive alone, lost control on a snowy Mercury Drive and crashed into an oncoming car. He died, but his mother in the passenger seat survived with minor injuries.
Last month, a 17-year-old Grandville High School student died when his 16-year-old girlfriend lost control on an icy Wilson Avenue SW. Earlier in January, a 19-year-old Cornerstone University student died after losing control on Whitneyville Road SE in Caledonia Township.
The usual culprits in fatal winter-driving crashes among young drivers are inexperience and driving too fast for conditions, police say.
Grand Rapids Police Sgt. Steve LaBrecque said he thinks teens do need winter-driving experience before venturing out alone. Driving on a skid pad would help.
"If you know what you're going to do ahead of time, you're not going to panic in a real-life situation," he said.
Still, even as teens turn 16 and start driving alone, parents need to make judgment calls about weather conditions.
"When it's cruddy weather outside, the kids don't have to go out. Say no. Keep them off the road," LaBrecque said.
The state police defensive-driving program, still in the planning, will offer a one-day training session to teens who have finished the last stage of their graduated driving license. Organizers expect to take four classes of 15 students each for this year.
The MacDonald family, through The Keisha MacDonald Dare 2 Dream Foundation, expects to pay the fees for a handful of drivers to attend the program.
Crash victim remembered

Union County's two top-seeded teams are alive and well after the first round of the group tournament on Thursday.
Summit, the top seed in the North Jersey, Group 2 bracket and No. 5 team in The Star-Ledger Top 20, cruised past Lenape Valley, 15-0, to advance to the quarterfinals against Madison on Monday.
No. 9 Oak Knoll, the top seed in the South Jersey, Group 1 tournament, also won, 15-0, defeating Gloucester Catholic to advance to the semifinals against ninth-seeded New Providence.
New Providence defeated Bernards 11-9 in the opening round, despite being the lower seed. Nicole Sanczyk scored three goals to lead New Providence to victory (BOX SCORE).
Oak Knoll and Summit met in the Union County Tournament finals where Summit won, 10-9.
Kent Place, the three seed in the North Jersey, Group 1 tournament, defeated Newark Academy, 16-4, to advance to the quarterfinals against Mount St. Dominic. The winner will advance to the semifinals against the winner of Glen Rock and Glen Ridge.

"You can still move on and have the memories," a source close to the pop star tells PEOPLE, noting that Simpson, 25, still speaks to her soon-to-be-ex-husband, Nick Lachey, 32. "Nick will always be an important part of her life."
Also on the chain with her 3.5 carat bauble are two crosses – one that her parents gave to her, and another that is identical to a cross worn by both her sister, Ashlee and mother, Tina.
The jewelry pieces represent "a combination of things that are important to her," says the source.
As for the new main man in Simpson's life, the singer has turned to her pal and hairstylist Ken Pavés since her split from Lachey.
Pavés joined Simpson as she lobbied for Operation Smile in Washington, D.C., in March and again at an awards show in Australia in April.
There's a precedent for this platonic stylist-star relationship. Think Jennifer Aniston's postbreakup friendship with longtime stylist Chris McMillan; Kate Moss enlisting stylist James Brown for shopping and meals out after Pete Doherty; Gisele Bündchen partying with Harry Josh, even before the Leo breakup.

HACKETTSTOWN — A woman from East Stroudsburg, Pa., was charged with driving while intoxicated and other charges following a one-car accident on Route 517 on July 10. Police gave the following account.
Police were alerted to a possibly intoxicated driver around 7:10 p.m., and went to the intersection of Routes 517 and 46, where they found a vehicle stopped in the intersection.
Through an investigation police determined that Maria Martinez, 49, was traveling in a 2013 Chevy south on Route 517 near Cook Street when the car's passenger-side mirror hit a utility pole. The driver continued south on Route 517 and the officer found the car stopped at the intersection with Route 46.
Martinez was allegedly unable to perform field sobriety tests, and was taken to police headquarters. She was charged with driving while intoxicated, refusal to submit to a breath test, driving while intoxicated in a school zone, reckless driving, leaving the scene of a motor vehicle accident and failure to report a motor vehicle accident.
Martinez was released pending a court appearance.

Your self-assurance will likely win others over today, convincing them to offer you opportunities that help you realize your next phase of existence. If you are called upon to choose between two similarly rewarding paths, you will likely have little trouble fixing your attention on one of the options before you. This confidence can inspire you in other areas of your existence by giving you the encouragement that allows you to expand your horizons through change. However, should you find yourself wavering when choosing between options, try taking a few moments to ponder your past successes. As you reflect today upon those times in which your skills and intelligence served you well, your natural decisiveness will likely return.
The excellent choices we have made throughout our lives can, during periods of wariness or indecision, give us the confidence we need to trust ourselves enough to face difficult decisions. When we reflect thoughtfully upon our personal triumphs and professional achievements, we soon realize that for all of the missteps we have taken, our lives have been defined by our successes. We have accomplished much and these accomplishments were likely no simpler in nature than those challenges we must face in the present. The range of our capability becomes clear to us as we examine the choices we have made in the past and the positive effects those decisions had on our existence as a whole. You will be moved to courageousness today by the triumphs you courted in your individual history.

high affinity for binding to mercury, so as long as you eat fish with higher amounts of selenium it won't be a problem. I don't worry about it at all since we don't eat fish with a low selenium to mercury ratio
We eat a lot of fish and somone mentioned that by doing so we're greatly increasing the mercury load in our bodies.
In the US pregnant women are recommended to consume no more than 12 ounces of fish per week to avoid too much mercury- as mercury can affect the baby's developing nervous system.
I'm not pregnant, just wondering about the differences between US guidelines for pregnant (or breastfeeding) mothers vs. those in Japan. And if Japan's guidelines allowe for frequent fish consumption by mothers, do they have much higher rates of abnormalities in neonates due to the mercury? Anyone know?
I'm still nursing my three year old, and don't plan on reducing my fish consumption. She herself eats a ton, and her five year old sister lives on fish. I couldn't imagine eating less than 12 ounces per week.
high affinity for binding to mercury, so as long as you eat fish with higher amounts of selenium it won't be a problem. I don't worry about it at all since we don't eat fish with a low selenium to mercury ratio
Not all fish are created equal. They say to avoid big ocean fish like tuna although even among tuna, albacore is the worst and light tuna are smaller fish so less mercury. Basically, the higher up in the food chain the fish is, the more mercury it is likely to contain (mackerel, shark, tilefish, tuna, swordfish).
I myself don't eat red meat or poultry so fish is my main source of protein. I think wild Alaskan salmon is the best and most sustainable but definitely avoid Atlantic salmon (i.e. farmed salmon).
Below is a list of fish categorized from the least contaminated to the highest.

Oh yes, and sardines are also a great (cheaper) option and on the lowest mercury list.

Is eating fish safe? A lot safer than not eating fish!
Oh,neat, thanks!
I'm not personally concerned about my fish intake. But I like arguing, hahah.
The WHO guidelines admit that exposure to mercury from amalgam fillings is on average 20 x that of exposure from fish intake.
The WHO advises pregnant women to limit their weekly consumption of fish to 2-3 portions, yet it does not advise to replace amalgam fillings prior to conceiving, nor does it advise against getting amalgam fillings during pregnancy.
Something doesn't add up... especially when one takes into account the amazing health benefits of omega 3 in oily fish.
Still, I'd say, go careful with tuna. Wild Alaskan salmon is one of the best foods for benefitting your baby's eye and brain development due to the omega 3 content and the mercury content is nothing to worry about.

Gloucestershire ease past Unicorns
Click here for all the latest scores, match reports, news, videos and exclusive interviews during the Yorkshire Bank 40 campaign
Gloucestershire Gladiators got off the mark in their Yorkshire Bank 40 Group C campaign by virtue of a comprehensive nine-wicket victory over the Unicorns at Wormsley.
Michael Klinger's side suffered a heavy defeat in their opening encounter versus Leicestershire two days ago, yet got back on track today.
Having won the toss, the Unicorns could only post 153 for nine in 40 overs, Michael O'Shea top-scoring with 41 in a second successive poor batting effort; they managed just 183 for eight versus Somerset yesterday.
While the Gladiators did not make as light work of such a target as their west-country rivals, who won with 147 deliveries to spare, they did overhaul the target in just 23.2 overs.
Klinger anchored the innings with 52 not out, while Hamish Marshall compiled a more fluent 67 and Chris Dent chipped in with an 11-delivery 29.
Will Gidman did the early damage for the visitors, ousting openers Tom Lancefield and Lewis Hill cheaply.
O'Shea attempted to hold the innings together amid Garry Park, Scott Elstone and Keith Parsons chipping in with handy contributions.
However, all of Gloucestershire's bowlers impressed - particularly David Payne, who led the way with good figures of 3-29 - as the Unicorns had to settle for a less-than-stellar score.
The Gladiators made quick work of their reply as Marshall and Klinger showed flair at the top of the order, the former striking eight fours and two sixes in a 62-ball stay.
Klinger was more reserved but dropped anchor to great effect, paving the way for some late fireworks from Dent as he hit three fours and two sixes in a brief cameo.

The catching depth in the New York Yankees organization was on display Wednesday night at Arm & Hammer Park. So much so that Francisco Cervelli was playing first base.
The 28-year-old's appearance didn't help as the Trenton Thunder lost 10-4 to the Richmond Squirrels in front of an announced and chilled crowd of 3,391. Over the past two games Richmond has collected 27 hits.
The loss was Trenton's sixth in their last seven games and leaves them with a record of 33-33. It has now lost 19 of its last 29 games.
Rehabbing from an April hamstring issue, the veteran catcher is in town until today with the hope of coming off the 60-day Disabled List and rejoining the parent club this week.
With Brian McCann and John Ryan Murphy on the New York roster, and kids like Austin Romine at the Triple-A level and Gary Sanchez here, the franchise continues to look for depth at first base.
That is the reason Wednesday night's starting catcher, Pete O'Brien, is being tried at first base.
Cervelli, now 2-for-20, is scheduled to catch Thursday.
His arrival was one of a handful of movements Wednesday.
While Cervelli played his sixth rehab game — having played in Tampa and at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre the past week — starting pitcher Jeremy Bleich was promoted to Scranton. Being demoted from the AAA club was pitcher Zach Nuding.
On Tuesday, second baseman Rob Refsnyder was moved up to Scranton and pitcher Jairo Heredia was brought back down to Trenton.
The Thunder have now made 87 roster moves this season, involving 46 players. By comparison, Richmond has made 24 moves involving 32 players.
Transaction 88 will likely be Thursday when Cervelli leaves town.
"I love catching. It's what I like to do," he said before the game. "But I've always been the 26th man on the roster. I play third base, second base, first base. Right now I am looking to help the team as much as I can.
"I feel good; I feel healthy. First base, I need to work a lot. But at the same time I can do it."
Cervelli played here in 2008. He played 21 games and was called to the big leagues in September. Trenton had just won the Eastern League championship.
"I think that was the best day of my life," he said about being called up to New York.
He's played for the Yankees every year since, although he's had his share of injuries and last year served a 50-game suspension for violating Major League Baseball's Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program.
With that behind him, the gregarious Venezuelan just wants to get back to the game; even if the game means making the adjustment to first base.
"I'm too hyper sometimes," Cervelli said about the challenge of playing first base. "I have to be moving around and jump a little bit because it's not easy. There's a little adjusting I have to do. I have to stay calm. That's the hard part. You're gonna see me dancing."
Pitching coach Tommy Phelps was in his first season here when Cervelli was called up to New York.
"He's a competitor, a leader; he has a lot of energy. Behind the plate, he's one of those guys who have a knack of calling games," Phelps said.
Whether he'll be calling games for any of his current teammates remains to be seen.
Phelps said he isn't sure which pitcher will now be dropped from the rotation. As far as Nuding and Heredia being back here, Phelps said they just have to regain their confidence.
As for Bleich, Phelps noted, "Hopefully he'll take advantage of his opportunity."

MARTINSBURG - The Tuscarora Indians 4-H Club went to Elmcroft Senior Living home Dec. 4 to enjoy an evening of song, dance and food with the residents of the home. The club has been going to the home for at least 18 years to celebrate Christmas and, for the past five years, club leaders have put together a program which allows the children to share special talents and interact with the residents. Special performances were given by Jordan Beer, Reese Ludwick, Sam, Jane and Sara Peterson, Ella and Maggie Hensell, Emma and Edward Engle, Alexis Cookus, Darcey Farrell and Hanna Nadenbousch. The club members also decorated tissue boxes for the residents. Dec. 7, the club members prepared trays of cookies for the local community service personnel, such as the police, fire and rescue and the ER staff who tend to work through the holiday season. Dec. 13, the club members met at the V.A. Hospital in Martinsburg to hand out Christmas cards they had made at the November meeting. They sang some Christmas songs and had some of the patients cheerfully singing along.

There to support her? Her dad Joe, sister Ashlee, nephew Bronx – and her boyfriend of several months, Eric Johnson.
"He went and got a sweater and a bowtie to try to lift my spirits because I've been working extremely hard," Simpson, 30, told PEOPLE after the show. "I laughed my butt off!"
She added, "As far as Eric and I go, we're just best friends. He's my dude! I love him."
The couple began dating in May, and ever since have been spotted getting cozy across the U.S. and overseas – even celebrating her birthday together in Italy. If the relationship seems like it's getting serious, that's because it is.
Simpson tells PEOPLE that they're planning to spend Thanksgiving together.
"We're all gonna be in New York," she says. "I'm gonna be on a [Macy's parade] float. It's not always the best way to spend a Thanksgiving, but it's a great way to celebrate. So, maybe I'll just have all families on the float."
For now, Simpson says she and her man are simply enjoying spending time together.
"Tomorrow we're having a long day off," she says. "He loves art. So, we go to art galleries, and he loves photography. It's cool."
"This [relationship] is just normal, thank God," she continues. "He's very, very supportive. [I] couldn't ask for a better man in my life right now."
Which, of course, begs the big question: Is Johnson the one?
"I never go to that because I already went there, so, I'm not gonna jinx my own self," she says. "He's the one for me right now! I'm very happy, I'm in a great place and if right now could last forever, I'd take it."
