Changing a whole economy from one currency to another is a complex process that requires careful preparations at many levels of society. One decision to be made is how the euro will be introduced: each EU country must choose among three possible scenarios the one which best meets its needs.
In the preparations for the introduction of the euro in 1999, Member States applied the 'Madrid scenario', so-called because it was agreed at the European Council meeting in Madrid in 1995.
The Madrid scenario set the legal framework and the timetable for the adoption of the euro, which involved a gradual changeover during a three-year transitional period:
Establishing the euro area involved launching a totally new currency. For Member States that will join the euro area later, the situation is different, as the euro already exists. This facilitates the changeover process as new entrants can rely on the support and experience of euro-area members. They can also choose to implement the changeover in different ways. Two alternative scenarios to the Madrid scenario have therefore been introduced in the EU legal framework:
The choice of which changeover scenario to adopt is taken by the future euro-area country, which will inform the EU institutions of their choice, and will also decide on the duration of any transitional or phasing-out periods, and the duration of dual circulation, within the limits set by the EU.

This coupe is definitely one of the best ever made
by Long Time Benz Fan from Long Beach, CA | November 10, 2010
The C140 (CL 500/600) is by far one of the best made vehicles ever made. From the old school of Mercedes-Benz thought, the CL was designed and executed as a superb top-of-the-line model. The features the model introduced back in the 90's are still considered avantgarde today and some of them (such as the double glazed windows) have been discontinued mostly due to the extreme high costs of production. Due to the extreme complexity of electronics and electrical systems, there are a few unreliable glitches (like the servo assist pump for closing the doors and trunk or the air conditioning evaporator) which are expensive to repair. But overall the car is built like a tank and it will last as one as long as the owner takes good preventive maintenance on it. Performance, ride comfort, materials quality and fit are first class and there are only a few cars today that can compare or surpass them.

NEGOTIATIONS between SEPTA and Transport Workers Union Local 234 could resume as early as today, possibly ending a strike that left hundreds of thousands of commuters without transportation to work and school.
Workers walked off the job at 3 a.m. yesterday, halting the city's subways, buses and trolleys after intensive negotiations involving Gov. Rendell, Mayor Nutter and U.S. Rep. Bob Brady fell apart over pension and other issues.
SEPTA attorney Brian Pedrow said that both sides were still "considerably far apart," but he would not elaborate.
Yesterday, Local 234 President Willie Brown said that the wage package was acceptable but that he was worried about the underfunded pension fund, funded only 52 percent. He said he believed that SEPTA had not contributed to it for 10 to 12 years.

'My Week with Marilyn' gets its close up at the New York Film Festival
There were a number of expected awards season players missing from the Venice, Telluride and Toronto Film Festival lineup announcements last week including Jason Reitman's "Young Adult" and "The Iron Lady." Now we know why as one of those titles, "My Week with Marilyn," has been selected as the centerpiece gala for the 2011 New York Film Festival.
Effectively "Marilyn's' world premiere, the screening will occur on Oct. 9 during the middle of the prestigious two-week festival.
"Marilyn" is based on Colin Clark's autobiographical account of working with Marilyn Monroe on the set of "The Prince and the Showgirl" in 1956. Clark, just an assistant on set, helps Monroe (Michelle Williams) explore Britain during a week when her husband at the time Arthur Miller (Dougray Scott) leaves the country. Williams, a best actress nominee last year for "Blue Valentine," is already receiving buzz for her performance. Kenneth Branagh, who just directed the blockbuster "Thor," is also being whispered about for his turn as Monroe's "Prince" co-star, Sir Laurence Olivier.
The picture also stars Dominic Cooper, Judi Dench, Julia Ormond, Zoe Wanamaker, Emma Watson, Toby Jones, Philip Jackson, Geraldine Somerville, Derek Jacobi and Simon Russell Beale.
In a release from the Film Society of Lincoln Center, Richard Peña, Selection Committee Chair & Program Director noted, "After seeing Marilyn Monroe so often portrayed in films as a caricature, it is a pleasure to see this complex personality and unique on-screen presence portrayed so well by such a talented actress as Michelle Williams."
After the best picture success of "The King's Speeh" this past March, The Weinstein Company isn't slowing down this awards season. Besides "Marilyn," the company has the previously mentioned "The Iron Lady" with Meryl Streep, the critically acclaimed "The Artist" and Ralph Fiennes' "Coriolanus."
"My Week with Marilyn" debuts in theaters Nov. 4. New Yorkers will get an early look on Oct. 8.

How to Check and Add Air to Car Tires
Keeping the appropriate air pressure in your tires is one way to help maintain the safety of your vehicle. Low air pressure can lead to overheating the tires, extra wear on your tires, and overuse of gasoline. Learning how to check and add air to car tires is an essential skill that every driver should master.
1Obtain a tire gauge from an auto store or auto department of a hardware store.
- Simple gauges work well. Digital gauges are not necessary.
- Gauge prices range from a couple of dollars to $20.
- Tire gauges measure pounds per square inch (standard) or kilo Pascal's (metric).
2Determine how much air should be in your tires. This will be printed on a sticker on the inside of the driver's side door or in the owner's manual. If you can't find the sticker, it may also be located inside the glove box door or fuel door.
- Look at the writing on the side of your tires. The tire will have a maximum PSI or KPA number. This is the maximum pounds per square inch or kilo Pascal's that your tires can handle. It is not advisable to fill your tires to this pressure.
3Check the air in your tires when the tires are cold. Try checking the tires first thing in the morning after the car has been turned off all night.
- Allow the car to sit for 30 minutes to three hours before checking air in car tires for the most accurate reading.
- If you must drive to check the air in your tires, try to make the trip less than 1 mile (1.6 km).
4Unscrew the cap off of the tire's valve stem.
5Place the tire gauge onto the tire valve stem.
6Press the tire gauge firmly down on top of the valve stem.
- Some air may escape when you begin applying pressure. However, the air should stop leaking out once the pressure is increased and the gauge is evenly on the valve.
7Read the gauge to gain information about the PSI or KPA in your tires.
- Standard gauges will blow out a stick. The notch on the stick where it stopped when blown out is the reading.
- Digital gauges will give a digital number as the reading.
8Carry out the process with all 4 tires to maintain a balance among them.
9Gain access to air either by getting an air hose and compressor ready or putting money into an air machine.
10Place the air hose nozzle over the open valve stem.
11Add pressure to the nozzle as you did with the tire gauge.
- The nozzle is on correctly when air stops leaking from the outside of the tire and is going inside of the tire.
12Allow a small burst of air to go inside of the tire.
13Remove the hose when the burst is complete.
14Use the tire gauge to see the new pressure of air in the tire.
- Do not go over 5 PSI or KPA than is recommended for your tires.
- If the pressure is still too low, add another small burst of air and recheck the pressure.
- Continue the process until the PSI is met.
- If you put too much air in the tire, press against the pin in the valve stem with the gauge and let a small amount of air release from the tire. Recheck the tire pressure.
15Replace the valve stem cap.
Community Q&A
How do I determine the proper air pressure for my tire?
- Place the cap to the valve stem in your pocket or in a location where it will not get lost.
- For the best maintenance, check your tire pressure once a month.
- Some vehicles use a different pressure for the front and rear tires.
- Over-inflating the tires can cause excessive wear in the center of the tires and cause overheating.
- The tire pressures recommended by the vehicle manufacturer may be different from the tire manufacturer. Follow the vehicle manufacturer recommendations.
Things You'll Need
- Tire gauge
- Access to air hose and compressor

Free storm debris pickup available
County reverses course, won't charge for service
Henrico County officials have reversed course and now will offer free curbside pickup of tree limbs and other yard debris that was left by Monday's storm. Officials had announced earlier this week that pickup would be offered for $43 per stop.
To arrange for the free service, residents must register in advance by calling (804) 501-4275. Registrations will be accepted from 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday, July 2 through Monday, July 9, excluding the July 4 holiday and weekend.
The Department of Public Utilities will pick up only residential yard debris, including small trees, limbs and branches, that:
• is placed curbside or along the edge of a nearby public road;
• does not exceed four inches in diameter or four feet in length;
• weighs less than 50 pounds.
Small items, including sticks, must be bundled. Root balls, trunks and logs from large trees, bagged yard debris and storm-related household waste, including scrap wood, drywall, roofing materials and spoiled food, will not be collected as part of the storm-related service.
DPU expects to complete all pickups in the coming weeks. A schedule for pickups cannot be guaranteed and will be based on the number of registrations received.
Residents may also choose to dispose of their debris for free by taking it to the public-use areas of the Springfield Road Landfill, at 10600 Fords Country Lane, or the Charles City Road Landfill, at 2075 Charles City Road. Both areas are open daily from 7:30 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Previous abstract Next abstract
One abundance ratio of importance for astrochemistry is [HCO$^{+}$] / [HOC$^{+}$]. HOC$^{+}$ is the metastable isomer of HCO$^{+}$ and lies about 17,000 K higher in energy. Both theory and experiment suggest that this ratio should be $>$ 10$^{4}$ in interstellar gas. A tentative detection of the J=1-0 transition of HOC$^{+}$ towards SgrB2(OH) by Woods et al.(Ap.J.370 , 538), however, indicates that [HCO$^{+}$]/[HOC$^{+}$]$\sim$330. We report here on new observations to confirm the identification of interstellar HOC$^{+}$ and establish the true [HCO$^{+}$]/[HOC$^{+}$] ratio. We have detected spectral lines at the frequency of the J=1-0 transition of HOC$^{+}$ at 89 GHz towards several new sources, including Orion-KL, W51, and DR21(OH), using the NRAO 12 m telescope. In addition, we have observed lines at the J=3-2 frequency of this molecular ion at 268 GHz in SgrB2(OH) and Orion-KL. These measurements suggest that the [HCO$^{+}$]/[HOC$^{+}$] ratio established by Woods et al. may be correct, and that HOC$^{+}$ is more abundant than chemical models predict.

about time. the more kids on the bus, the better-more jobs, less trash on the road
HARTSDALE, N.Y. — Greenburgh Central School District No. 7's board of education has scheduled a referendum for Dec. 13 on a proposal to change the district's transportation policy.
The referendum will ask voters for authorization to shorten distance limits for students to be eligible for school bus transportation. If approved, the proposal would reduce the limits from 0.5 miles to 0.2 miles for students in grades 6 and lower, and from 1 mile to 0.5 miles for students in grades 7 to 12.
If it is approved, the change would cost an additional $361,986, which would be taken from the 2010-11 operating budget as well as an undesignated fund balance.
The referendum will be held at Woodlands High School gym from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Galaxy S4 Zoom 16 MP cameraphone tipped as Samsung's answer to Nokia EOS and Sony Honami
0. phoneArena 07 May 2013, 04:39 posted on
As the name implies, Samsung might be stuffing optical zoom capabilities in there, but the rest of the rumored specs are mid-range - a 4.3" qHD SAMOLED display, 8 GB of storage plus supported microSD card up to 64 GB, Bluetooth 4.0 LE, Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n and A-GPS. Android Jelly Bean will be running the show plus the inevitable TouchWiz Nature UX. Processor and RAM aren't disclosed yet...

Samsung, you still can't beat the Lord Pureview (Nokia) and the Wonderful Exmor RS Cybershot (Sony)!
Samsung, when you can't do it, don't do it!
41. Jason2k13 (Posts: 1214; Member since: 28 Mar 2013)
wait wait... are you saying XZ camera is better than the S4? since when did sony made good cameras in their phones?
46. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
kid we all can see your another blind samsung fanboy but go talk crap elsewhere now your boring
sony have it in them to blow samsung out the water in terms of camera they just need to shape up and go back to the days they were a real talking point
i remember the k800 with its 3.2 cybershot camera it got everyones attention back then
sony will hopefully shut you fanboys up, as for nokia well its taken others 3 years to catch up with the n8......there always ahead
50. yudi.nemesis (Posts: 1127; Member since: 14 Mar 2013)
yeah i don't really know what the hell happen with sony, they have great arsenal on camera, audio, display and even content.
if sony goes full force they can do anything.
62. Jason2k13 (Posts: 1214; Member since: 28 Mar 2013)
kid why are you living in the past, how about the current sony phones right now? blind fanboys like you need to realise sony is not doing well in their camera department and im talking about smartphones, not old dumbphones which you probably own.
75. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
its always funny to make idiots like you look even more foolish
ok so where to start, ohh easy you say im living in the past when if you could actually read and comprehend i was referring back to when sony was the talk of the town basically and that sony have it in them to do it again
samsung are on top thanks to playing the same marketing game as apple, there adverts are childish in many ways yet fanboys like you are so up there ass you will troll on these articles
dumbphones which i own, hmmm i own an 808 bought for the reason its the best cameraphone and thats what i like.....your the only dumb one
49. xperiaDROID (banned) (Posts: 5629; Member since: 08 Mar 2013)
I didn't said the Xperia Z's camera is better than the S4's! I only said Samsung's camera still can't beat the Nokia's Pureview and Sony's Exmor RS Cybershot!
Are you butthurt? But soon, Sony's Honami and Nokia's EOS will shut you Samsung fanboys up. :)
51. yudi.nemesis (Posts: 1127; Member since: 14 Mar 2013)
i think the camera on Xperia Z can be better than S4.
SONY just need fix the software the only things they must do is ask some help from Sony camera division
55. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
Well w/ d sony honami and togari, Sony's camera division will now be involved in d smartphone departmnt ;) hopng now for d real Sony's best(s)
57. xperiaDROID (banned) (Posts: 5629; Member since: 08 Mar 2013)
I hope the software will be fixed with the Android 4.2 update for the Xperia Z, and I think that the camera will be alright in the Honami and the Togari, I hope. I wish all the best to Sony. :)
63. Jason2k13 (Posts: 1214; Member since: 28 Mar 2013)
butthurt? why would i be buthurt when sony hasn't proven to beat samsung in terms of the camera department in smartphones? and how do you know sony's exmor RS cybershot will beat samsung when its not even out and tested yet?
I bet your the same fanboy who said the same thing, before the announcement of Xperia Z came out.
68. xperiaDROID (banned) (Posts: 5629; Member since: 08 Mar 2013)
First, you said "since when did sony made good cameras in their phones?". Well, if you didn't know, Sony makes good cameras in their phones, but not the best.
Second, let's not talk about Exmor RS, let's talk about Cybershot, Cybershot feature Carl Zeiss lens, and it takes great pictures, and Sony Ericsson have made some Cybershot phones back in 2008-2009. So Exmor RS+Cybershot will take even better pictures right?
I'm sorry that I was being rude, but the first thing you said really makes me angry.
70. WHoyton1 (Posts: 1635; Member since: 21 Feb 2013)
Yes and I agree cybershot is good but cmon. It hasn't appendage prevently on any recent Sony smartphones which implies Sony are losing there touch in the smartphone camera department
67. WHoyton1 (Posts: 1635; Member since: 21 Feb 2013)
I support Jason2k13 here... He is right when he says all recent Sony smartphones have failed to beat the recent galaxy phones that is fact... However if we are talking actual cameras Sony will win but we aren't we are talking camera phones big difference!
82. maccess (Posts: 742; Member since: 16 Jan 2013)
becareful.. htc fans along sony fans and nokia fans will attack you.. i don't know since when they become samsung's enemy?? maybe since samsung doing so well and make the other manufacture except apple loosing all their money..
84. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
im loving how now samsung fanboys dish it out then when they get put in there place they act the victims.....so funny
your say about other fans but what about you and your fellow sammy fans, your the worst kind of fanboys
one example is before the s4 was released you all said samsung change the design or we wont buy. samsung keep the unispired design suddenly you change your tune and praise them
another one is how you slated the iphone when it has any problem, s4 reported overheating and screen issues you defend saying its nothing major . this happens to the first batch.....funny how you didnt see that as the case with the iphone or if HTC devices have problems
also and my favourite sales, when the iphone dominated you shouted sales dont mean its the best people just follow thats why it sells...............samsung s3-s4 start selling well and its a different story'' ohh look at the sales it shows the s4 is the best'' ive seen comments like that so many times on here
see your the worst kind of fanboy and ive seen it all over the site, so you play the victim but people know what you are
90. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
The design myt be d same, but there are still complling factors of it like the bigger screen in a very compact body w/ tiny bezels that made it look prettier, for me, huh
For me, what uve said is true for specfc fanboys but i think they are only few very few, .. still u dont know if d same person acted in every situation uve mentiond that will make ur arguments valid
I think, yhe worst fanboys are hmmmmmm well every sammy hater, look at d artcles "htc one sellng well but not as well as gs4", cool cases for gs4, etc etc, u can see how sammy haters threw d first harsh attacks
91. maccess (Posts: 742; Member since: 16 Jan 2013)
wake up boy.. i think you are insanely wrong if you thought i ever did anything like you've said above.. maybe you got a wrong person because i definetily never did like anything you've said above.. i even never come to any htc or nokia or sony article to bash them... but what you're doin in many of samsung articles?? if you hate samsung just hate it.. don't make yourself look so butthurt and dumb.. you are one of the worst nokia fanboy i ever met..
100. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
haha you lot are truly pathetic, samsung fanboys love to dish it out and yes it was you and another sammy boy was macceo or summit like that
im onl here if you look at my comments talking about how sony can come back as you sammy boys love to slate them
ohh but its ok for the likes of you and sleepyoz who is a paid samsung boy to hate others like sony and nokia, even HTC yet say anything about samsung you get the trolls thumbing you down and 3-4 fanboys teaming up as they believe numbers means they win
your no different as you dont say a word against sleepy when he slates the 920 but come running to samsungs side
56. skinny95black (Posts: 113; Member since: 06 Jan 2013)
Samsung is all ways like this trying to get in all the fields they make one hell of screens I will give them that but with this phone It's going to be a failure sony and nokia make their camera phones perfect good specs and good camera samsung will make this phone with mid range specs and good camera but wont be enough to beat nokia and sony

I think ur d one who has d resonsblty of going home and have enuf sleep..
It is just PA who said that this leak is to counter honami and nokia eos,,
Honami's rumored specs concepts are truly incredible but u dont have d ryt to bash anodr company
101. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
you bash others and support others who bash everything non samsung so where do you get off saying that?
ive seen your comments they always come to samsungs side, and you always back up samsung fanboys and trolls
103. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
wow huh??? well as what im always saying i want s4, htc one, sony honami, note3.. im open w/ all technology fruits out there, im not like you, an immature hater,, i will backup someone if he replied to someone who made nonsense hate comments may that be d htc one, s4 etc
104. chaoticrazor (Posts: 2347; Member since: 28 Aug 2012)
you have no ground to call me an immature hater, ive seen your comments always pro samsung you have grouped together with others to slate the htc one many times and you attack people but only when your with your fellow fanboys
you are one way samsung, you wont ever give back up to anyone defending against a samsung fanboy even when the fanboys just trolling etc
so dont try act the voice of reason kid you been on here what , a month ive seen your type alot would be nice having actual fair unbiased people on here
105. kclgphilsbsa (Posts: 765; Member since: 21 Jan 2013)
Duhh??? I like htc one bcoz of d boomsound, Zoe and the Improved camera not d initial firmware w/ sucking images.. sometimes it is just ryt to tell that htc one's aluminum has its own disadvantages when the plastic is d hot topic and being bashed.. i had a bad intial impression w/ d one bcoz of its camera, but the firat thing that i mentioned abt it is "beautiful"..
Now d one has improved camera, den im leaning towards it but i refuse bcoz i want 5' display replcble batt at microSD so i just recommnded it ro my brother so i can also play w/ that beauty..and i even defendd htc w/ my previous commnts.. i cancld my gs4 preorder bcoz im afraid of faulty handset and im honest abt that in my previous comments.. what i can remember is d way i crtcize Xperia Z bcoz my sister had a bad experience w/ dat handset, and after all i want sony Honami..
But im honest, i am more a fan of samsung than htc and sony,,why??? Bcoz theyr d one who made d grandest things in android community, and tell me are there any reasonable reasons for u and others like u to hate samsung? The company ddnt even ruin ur life.. d same w/ me, i have no ryt to hate htc sony lg nokia apple etc

I've had some good experience with Hori arcadesticks, so im leaning towards their FPS controller ,but the level of customisation on the MLG is very appealing, even though i've had some bad experiences with Madcatz products (ps2 era)
Anyone who has any experience with these controllers, please share.
I've looked up some reviews online, written and vids, and still it isnt really helping me :/ thanks in advance
(btw, im playing mw3, not bo2, but that board is dead)

If you're crazy enough to even consider anything made by Madkatz I don't think we're going to be of much help here.
Anything I've ever gotten from Madkatz (this was years ago) was absolute trash. Felt really cheap, flimsy, and didn't handle normal usage for a long time at all.
SCUF? I haven't heard much bad about their controllers at all.

I cant decide what to choose.

Neither, get this. http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0096KF7O4/ref=aw_d_var_2nd_videogames_txt?vs=1
Amazing quality, great feel, awesome triggers, close to 360(slightly slimmer) ergos, large, comfortable joysticks, decent D-pad, comfortable, fast(yet springy) face buttons, interchangeable top and bottom grips(I use rubber on the whole left side and on the bottom right -- my right hand moves constantly, so it has to be left smooth).
It even has pretty LEDs that can be turned off. I've kept mine off of the majority of the time, but they've got the cool factor if you're into that, and if nothing else, the colors are useful.
Oh, and the wire is tough as hell. It's about as thick as a Cat5e ethernet cable, with a tough plastic shell around it. Comes with a travel case too.

I had input lag with a 3rd party controller. So much that using the keyboard was lag. I got a scuf controller cause its an actual sony controller. Just another option...

Well, in the past few years, Madcatz has stepped their game up in terms of quality. They've been partnered with a lot of games recently, so I guess they finally learned their lesson.
TC, I just ordered a SCUF gaming controller and if you're willing to wait a few days, I can give you a review of what I think about it and help aid you in your decision? I wouldn't recommend either of those controller dues to their low ratings review... If anything, I would rather have the DS3 than those two.
BO2 Combat Record - http://tinyurl.com/bb2pkge
_Deadeye_CM_ 4 years ago#9
Just for some more data, and to explain why I prefer my controller to the DS3, the biggest thing was ergos. The DS3, while completely symmetrical, just doesn't feel right. The left joystick is really low, and even though after using the controller for so long, I never liked it.
Next, the triggers are awful. There's a reason firearm triggers are curved the opposite way. And man, the Power A's triggers are great.
The design of the joysticks is probably the biggest factor to me, though. I can't stand convex joysticks, and the DS3 has the most uncomfortable ones I've used. They're not as fast as the Power A's either.
When I bought this thing, there were no written reviews anywhere(aside from a couple of very short Amazon reviews), and there was one video review by a guy on YouTube. I bit the bullet and ordered a controller made by a company I'd never heard from, and it's completely changed the way I feel about CoD on the PS3.
Anyway, so that's why I chose the Power A over a custom DS3 like SCUF. I've thought about adding SCUF to my Power A, though that would mean I'd spent over $120 on a controller, and I don't know how compatible it will be with the PS4. So if you're planning on upgrading as soon as the next gen consoles come out(likely less than a year), then you might want to reconsider getting a controller at all.
tl;dr: DualShock's design sucks for FPS, so I went third-party.

I HAVE the MadCatz MLG controller, and I love it. Even though MC has had a bad report of building trash, probably gamers stepped in and helped them build this gem. People need to quit judging stuff before they try it, because the controller is designed with the HC gamer in mind. I recommend it. You won't be disappointed.

Donald Bags 3 Katies
Staff writer Mark Donald scored a Dallas Observer first in the recent Press Club of Dallas Foundation Katie Awards, winning three individual honors and earning finalist status in two other categories. The Katies recognize outstanding journalistic work in a five-state area. Donald's performance capped a successful showing for the Observer, which won two other awards, all in major-market competition. The Observer fought for, and won, the right to compete against The Dallas Morning News and the Fort Worth Star-Telegram as a major-market newspaper last year. In earlier years, the Observer was barred from competing in several major contest categories in the Katie Awards.
Donald took first-place honors in the Government/Political Story category for his May 2 in-depth report on Dallas' fake-drugs scandal, "Dirty or Duped?"; the Arts Feature category for his August 2, 2001, story "Rich Man, Poor Man" about the rise and fall of Dallas architect Tom Stanley; and the Specialty Feature category for his October 11, 2001, investigative report "Deadbeating the System," which showed why the state's system for tracking deadbeat parents isn't working as well as it should, despite an improved tracking system in the Texas Attorney General's Office. "Deadbeating the System" had previously been named a winner of a State Bar of Texas Gavel Award.
Donald, who stepped away from a successful career as a criminal defense attorney and Dallas County magistrate to become a full-time writer, was also recognized for his reporting on legal affairs by being named one of three finalists for the Specialty Reporting category, which honors beat writers. Donald's other finalist was the December 6, 2001, feature story "Tortured Souls."
The Observer's other winners were columnist Jim Schutze, who placed first in the Editorial/Comment category for "Down the River," an October 25, 2001, piece that took former Mayor Ron Kirk to task for his misinformation about the "thousands of black families all over South Dallas" whose homes would be vulnerable to flooding if the city didn't implement the Trinity River Plan. Schutze hit the streets with a map and found out that few, if any, black families lived in the industrial areas that would benefit most from Kirk's plan.

CBNNews.com - JERUSALEM, Israel - Former chairman of the ultra-Orthodox Shas party, Arieh Deri, has announced his intention to run in Jerusalem's mayoral race.
"I weighed it out and consulted with my rabbis and with [my] attorneys. I have made the decision to run," Deri told Army Radio.
Deri, who was convicted of bribery, fraud and breach of trust in 1999, served 22 months of a three-year sentence in Maasiyahu Prison.
Because his crimes involved moral turpitude, he is barred from running for public office for seven years after his release, which would be mid-2009.
To be legally eligible to run in the Jerusalem mayoral campaign, Deri will have to secure a pardon from Israel's president, Shimon Peres.
MK (member of Knesset) Eli Yishai, who succeeded Deri as Shas chairman, said the party will support Deri if he enters the race.
In a separate incident, Deri was convicted in 2003 for breach of trust in a case directly involving the Jerusalem Municipality.
The Jerusalem Magistrate's Court found Deri guilty of allocating 400,000 shekels (more than $100,000) from the Interior Ministry budget to an organization run by his brother, Rabbi Yehuda Deri.
The organization used the money to purchase a villa in an ultra-Orthodox Jerusalem neighborhood for a yeshiva (religious seminary).
Deri served an additional three-month prison sentence and paid a 10,000-shekel ($2,800) fine.

A Guide to Modeling Counterparty Credit Risk
Steven H. Zhu
Banc of America Merrill Lynch; Morgan Stanley
Michael Pykhtin
Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System
GARP Risk Review, July/August 2007
Michael Pykhtin and Steven Zhu offer a blueprint for modelling credit exposure and pricing counter-party risk. They focus on two main issues: modelling credit exposure and pricing counter-party risk. In the part devoted to credit exposure, we will define credit exposure at contract and counter-party levels, introduce netting and margin agreements as risk management tools for reducing counter-party-level exposure and present a framework for modelling credit exposure. In the part devoted to pricing, we will define credit value adjustment (CVA) as the price of counter-party credit risk and discuss approaches to its calculation.

Iowa's Oldest Judge Retires at Age 90
Iowa's oldest judge has retired from her duties in Polk County at the age of 90 after decades spent overseeing wills and other matters.
The Des Moines Register reports that District Associate Probate Judge Ruth Klotz said at a retirement party Thursday that she wants to travel and to pass the work on to a younger judge.
State lawmakers had written an exemption into a law that would have forced her to stop working at 80.
Klotz spent 34 years as Polk County's chief overseer of wills, estates and legal guardianships for troubled children and the feeble elderly.
In an interview last fall with the Register, Klotz said there was no specific reason she decided to retire now.
"I just decided that I've been here long enough," she said. "When you think about all the people you've known through your life -- like all the relatives who are your age level and they're all gone -- that makes you think maybe you've been overstaying something."
Klotz was born in Mason City in 1922 and grew up in Iowa Falls. She married lawyer Earl Fritz in 1950 and later enrolled in Drake University Law School.
She was eight months pregnant with the couple's daughter when her husband died in a courtroom. After her daughter was born, she graduated from law school and then passed the bar exam and took a job with the Iowa Department of Revenue.
She married Richard Klotz a few years later and after developing expertise at a law firm took a position as the Polk County courthouse's "probate referee" in 1978. She was formally named a judge in 1996.
Her husband died decades ago.
In the earlier Register interview, Senior Judge Donna Paulsen called Klotz a role model for female attorneys.
"She was not a complainer," Paulsen said. "She would just quietly go in and do her job and do her job well."

Wonderful place, with incredibly friendly and kind staff. Excellent breakfast, both in variety and quality, with a nice mix of Asian and western dishes. A perfect stay, and the highlight of our nearly 4 weeks of traveling through Asia.

Historical Traveler Reviews Rimping Village Chiang Mai
Das Rimping ist toll
Wir wechselten in das tolle kleine Hotel, denn es hatte alles, was wir brauchten. Die Angestellten waren toll und freundlich, das Preis-Leistungs-Verh�ltnis war ausgezeichnet, die Zimmer waren herrlich, es ist in der N�he zu Allem, was Chiang Mai zu bieten hat. Das Hotel liegt in der N�he des Flusses etwas au�erhalb vom Stadtzentrum, man kann zu den Nachtm�rkten, den Bars und Clubs laufen, aber trotzdem etwas Frieden und Ruhe im Hotel genie�en.
Wir waren im Rimpling Deluxe und es war herrlich. Ich w�rde nach keinem anderen Hotel schauen.
Rimping is great,
We relocated to this excellent little hotel because it had everything we wanted.
Great, friendly service, great value for money, excellent rooms close to everything Chang Mai has to offer.
Situated near the river just out of the city centre you can walk to the night markets, bars and clubs and still enjoy some peace and quite.
We stayed in the Rimping delux and it was, I wouldn't bother to look any where else for accomdation.
Loved the Rimping Village
We were 2 ladies travelling from Toronto, Canada and this hotel was recommended by another hotel because they were full. The staff could not do enough for us. The hotel is close to all the shopping , including grocery store, pharmacy and the night market. It is within walking distance to the Phae Gate and the Ping River. It is one of the best places to stay when visiting Chiang Mai. They arranged a driver for us to visit the sights for a day in Chiang Mai and take us where we wanted to go . The staff is very friendly, the place is very very clean, safe, food is excellent and they have a nice pool. The staff also speaks English. The setting is nice and you can sit out in the evening for dinner. We enjoyed our stay and look forward to returning to this hotel on our next trip.
The staff went out of their way to ensure that we enjoyed our stay in Chiang Mai. While we were at the hotel Thailand celebrated a major festival "Loy Krathong" and the staff provided us with candles in a beautiful basket so we could participate with everyone. Enjoy
Good service
My experience of this hotel is very impressive the hotel is very new and clean. The service is friendly and the hotel location is in the safe area quite community. Me personally while I was stay at the hotel had and opportunity to meet the owner family which they work really hard and always polite really nice family.
Guter Service
Ich war von dem Hotel sehr beeindruckt. Es ist sehr neu und sauber. Die Angestellten waren freundlich, das Hotel liegt in einer sicheren Gegend in einer ruhigen Gemeinde. W�hrend ich hier war hatte ich die Gelegenheit, die Familie des Besitzers kennenzulernen. Sie arbeiten wirklich hart und waren immer h�flich, eine wirklich nette Familie. Aun
I have made repeated visits and ALWAYS same impecable standard
I have made many visits to this hotel and without question the courtesy and helpfulness of the staff would be difficult to better even in significantly more expensive hotels. The hotel is well located and you are treated to a little back street ride to get to it - but do not let that deter you - you are about 500 meters from Mae Ping River and a 15 minutes stroll over the "iron bridge" in to the down town, night bazaar and restaurant area. The pool a this hotel is charming - overshadowed by a giant banyan tree, swimming in the midday sun is a joy. The restaurant is commendable too. I am going to add that as a resident of Chiang Mai province I come into the city regularly and I have made this hotel a stopping off point almost on every visit; I have seen the rooms and they are very good. I have no connection with this hotel and therefore, independently, give it a maximum recommendation and that's from someone who has spent his life traveling and living out of a suitcase on three continents!
Eine Oase mit Flair, Stil und einfach traumhaft
Rimping Village, das famili�r gef�hrte, liebevoll und geschmackvoll gestaltete neue Hotel vermittelt das Gef�hl einer Oase inmitten von Chiang Mai. Es war immer wie ein nachhause kommen, ob von einem Trip in den Norden oder Abendspaziergang �ber den Nachtbasar.
Erholung und Erfrischung bietet der Swimmingpool und verzaubert das Geb�udeensemble bei Nacht im romantischen Licht.
H�chst freundlicher Service, absolut gepflegte Anlage mit hohem hygienischen Standard, harmonisches Ambiente und Flair.
Der Chef kocht pers�nlich und Essen ist hier ein Hochgenu�. Wir fanden all unsere W�nsche erf�llt.
Tolles Hotel
Mein Freund und ich waren hier f�r einen Monat im Juni/Juli. Das Rimping war herrlich. Es liegt vielleicht nicht da, wo was los ist, aber in nur 5 Min. l�uft man �ber die Br�cke zum Nachtmarkt und dem Nachtbazar.
Die Angestellten waren unglaublich freundlich und gaben sich alle M�he, damit die G�ste es gem�tlich haben oder dass der Aufenthalt noch netter wird. Sie brachten uns sogar zur Botschaft, als wir unsere Visa verl�ngern mussten und machten danach mit uns eine Tour durch Chiang Mai.
Der K�hlschrank wurde jeden Tag mit Wasser, Limonade und Bier aufgef�llt, manchmal bekamen wir auch einen Obstkorb.
F�r einen entspannten Urlaub in einem freundlichen und sauberen Hotel k�nnen wir das Rimping Village jedem empfehlen, der nach Chiang Mai kommt.
Great Place to Stay
My boyfriend and I stayed here for a month in June/July. We loved it at Rimping. It may not be right in the centre of things but it is only a 5 minute walk across the bridge to get to the Night Market and Night Bazaar.
The staff are extremely friendly and will go out of their way to make you feel comfortable or to make your stay more enjoyable. They even took us to the embassy when we had to get our visa's extended and then took us on a tour of Chiang Mai afterwards.
The fridge was re-stocked daily with water, soft drinks and beer, and occasionally we'd also get a fruit basket.
All in all I would recommend Rimping Village to anyone going to Chiang Mai for a relaxed, friendly and clean place to stay.

Will our luggage make it. . . .
Up early for an early flight to Chiang Mai. I can't believe how quickly our trip is going. The Golden Jade has a shuttle bus for 150baht/person, although a bit more expensive than a taxi, considering it is less than 10 minutes to the airport, it was easy at that time of the morning.

They are hard workers, up at 5 every morning to tend to the land and the animals, and retire at sundown to their houses for conversation and a smoke. No TV's, no computers-they talk instead.

Vt. House to give final approval to aid in dying
MONTPELIER — The Vermont House is expected to give final approval to a bill that would allow Vermont doctors to prescribe lethal medication to terminally ill patients who request it.
The likely final passage of the bill sets up a clash with the state Senate, which passed a different proposal.
The differences are over how involved the state should be in monitoring the dying process.
The House version contains several safeguards, including waiting periods totaling 17 days, the requirement that the patient be deemed mentally competent and make the request three times, once in writing, as well as others.
The Senate version removed civil and criminal liability for health professionals and family members when a terminally ill patient takes a lethal dose of medication.MORE IN This Just InMONTPELIER Goalie Emily Bashara stopped 44 shots but the Green Knights still had a field day...

Got hiredĀon May 15th, found outĀI was pregnant on July 5th. Spent all of July, August, and up until Friday so nervous to tell my new principal the news...but it turns out she was great! She said to enjoy the pregnancy and not to worry so much...my job isn't in jeopardy and everything will be just fine. I cried!
The only funny thing is that she wants me to wait to tell the kids until December. So, I'm down with not mentioning it to the kids...but I have a feeling they will catch on way before then! Lol!!
Here's hoping everyone's "revealing" is just as positive!!

One year ago the Elwha and Glines Canyon Dams started to be removed as part of the watershed restoration on Washington's Olympic peninsula. It is the largest dam removal in the history of the USA.
The dam removal will restores ecosystems in the long term, it will open up the river to migrating fish for the first time in 100 years and allow the river to transport sediment throughout its reach, helping to rebuild the natural bed structure and flow of the Elwha all the way to the sea by rebuilding beaches that today are starved for sand and other fine material.
In the short term, excess turbidity remains the biggest concern during the next 3–10 years. About 600 dams have been taken down in the U.S. over the past 50 years, but none involved so much sediment (24 million cubic yards).
In the case of the Elwha, Congress authorized the dam removal 20 years ago, but it took two decades to get the money and logistical details in place.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Beer Talk' started by RBassSFHOPit2ME, Nov 7, 2012.
I liked this post solely for the purpose of unliking it.
I've been a huge Celebration fan since it first came out and I will say...it's my favorite beer hands down. Yes, there are others that are awesome but Celebration is truly great.
I wil admit though that I'm a huge SN fan. In fact, in addition to the Pale Ale, Torpedo, Old Chico and, of course Bigfoot, I'm sitting on a case each of the 30th anniv ales, the Dubble and the Quad, with the Brix shortly behind.
But if I'm on my deathbed, gimme a Celebration!
Yeah, I got in trouble for this post.
I'm pretty sure this is a running joke. Because its a winter looking beer, most unknowing people assume its some sorta spiced winter warmer type beer and will note the nutmeg and whatever else is in those nasty beers, when clearly the only thing in it is the ass kicking power of hops.
I just polished off a 64 oz. growler in 3 hrs. For those who think that ain't shit - it ain't bad for an old fart.
haha, yeah I can imagine your inbox full of hate mail from Sierra Nevada fanboys. That was a ballsy thing to say my man.
ding ding! Thats what I was told today, really getting pissed off. Total Wine Roseville said end of the month?? wtf?! But, then again they are wrong most of the time with shipment dates. Might just drive to Davis..
over hyped? Please explain..
I have two sixtels on order which are due in Maryland any day now. With any luck they will last until the Nugget Nectar arrives this winter!
I hear ya. Kellerweis, Summerfest, and Celebration taste pretty similar. I wonder what magical yeast they use to make a hefeweizen, pilsner, and IPA taste the same.
Just grabbed a 6 pack, havent had this in two years so I'll see if I like it more this time.
Anyone sightings in Philadelphia suburbs?? Stopped in Wegmans Allentown and Collegeville this week with no luck. I have a bottle of 2011 in my fridge that I am saving for Christmas Eve.
Well that was mighty nice of him. I'll be sure to take a picture of the beers I'm supposed to be sending him soon, after I drop them on the sidewalk. I'll be headed your way Sunday I do believe, would that work for ya?
Last year they started shipping East first...alas, I must wait, too.
You're right...just had a Narwhal, a Kellerweis, a Hoptimum and an Ovila Dubbel in a blind tasting and had no idea which one was which. Crazy.
That's awesome! Last year we went through a couple half barrels and probably 3 logs of it. Holidays are great with Celebration!
See what I mean?
Touche. Way to dig up this thread just to shit on my day.
Where the fuck is Celebration Ale? Just last week I was in Reno, Las Vegas, San Diego, Orange County. . . nothing.
This is almost a full month after we used to get Celebration (before Halloween) in prior years.
But rest assured, Summerfest will hit shelves when there's still snow on the ground. . . sigh.
Now its looking like no Celebration by Thanksgiving! This aggression will not stand, man! Seriously though, bunk beds are less bunk than no Celebration Ale for Thanksgiving.
I'm really interested in this comparison. 2011 blew my mind the first time i tried it, but 2012 just seemed to be missing something. Still an awesome brew and one of my favorites, and i'll definitely be buying more, it just seems to me like 2011 slapped all over it.
Can you post the comparison?
P.S. For you cali ppl who can't find it (not in sac? really??) It's all over the place here in the Turlock/Modesto Central Valley area. It might be worth a trip here to pick some up, if your coming from the bay, bring me an Enjoy by 12.21.12!
I actually plan on drinking it tonight, so yea i'll let you know how it is.
It turns into Hopslam
I agree.
Already finished my 1st case, me need more!
Well the old Celebration was definitely not worth keeping haha. Its much better fresh. The old one seemed a little under carbonated, the bitterness was still there but without the flavor that should go along with it. Kind of musty. I've read that the hops drop off over time and I can now confirm that.
I know this will be blasphemous to some, but I had my first SN Celebration the other night and was pretty unimpressed. I can take the bitterness off the top, but I just feel like the aftertaste lingers forever. I could still taste it in my mouth hours later and after drinking a LOT of water. I bought a sixer and I'll finish it to give it a fair shake, but I was disappointed.
I hear ya. I think its the yeast they use. Seems like almost every beer they make is overly herbal. Celebration definitely has to be they most over hyped beer ever. It barely has any hop aromatics, let alone flavor. Which is odd because it really has a nice, lasting bitterness. I am lookong forward to trying that Narwhal stout though. Hopefully it isnt as sweet as Hoptimum.
opinions on SN Celebration with some age?
What I posted a few spots up was from a Celebration that was bottled exactly 335 days ago
Its solid!! I love it because when I can't decide what to drink I just grab one of these and I am set!!
thanks, much appreciated
So I haven't tried this (ever!) but I bought my first 6 pack earlier today. Looking forward to trying this one!
Third year? I have 4 times as many vintages laid down for verticals!
I'm drinking a Cambridge Big Man IPA for the first time right now and it doesn't remind me at all of Celebration. It's not nearly as good for one, and weirdly I'm not really too into it. Especially compared to their other brews I've tried so far.
well people can decide if they like this themselves or not but i buy up two cases every year when it gets released and slowly plow through them till about new years " its the most wonderful time of the year" haha
Not having my first one until thanksgiving. Tomorrow seems so long away with that gorgeous case staring me in the eyes.
What a hoppy little beast this is. @$13.95 a12pak Big Bang for the buck
True. Everyone has different tastes. But, for me, jumping from Tumbler, to Celebration, to Ruthless Rye, to Summerfest, along with other brews from many other breweries, keeps me enjoying good beer at a decent price for about 6 months. And choosing glassware for each one makes the evenings that much better.

One of every 12 babies born in the United States has at least one parent who is in the country illegally, according to the Pew Hispanic Center. The Washington Post and others have reported on widespread "birthright tourism," in which pregnant tourists come to the United States to give birth.
The current interpretation of the 14th Amendment allows all such children, whether born to illegal aliens or temporary tourists, automatic U.S. citizenship. Elected officials have begun to question whether that interpretation is correct and whether it could be changed.
What the 14th Amendment says is: "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States. ..." The 14th Amendment does not say - or mean - that everyone born here is a citizen.
