Norwegian Dawn Cruise Review by michael nagy: not what i expected
Overall Member Rating
not what i expected
Destination: Eastern Caribbean
Embarkation: Miami
This was our 16th cruise and the 4th with NCL...it was a cruise over New Years. We previously sailed on the NCL Pearl in the summer of this year....and although the Dawn is an older ship...we expected somewhat of the same. We Drove from Tampa to Miami and parked the vehicle...get ready to pay $20 per day to park.....way too much money, and you have to pay in cash. Although the line was long to get into the terminal..it moved rather quickly...I would say we waited an hour from time in line to time on ship.....I don't think that is too bad when they are trying to get so many people on at once.....a new thing they have added is that after registration, you have to go to another area to pick up your Cards...I am not sure if this is a time saver or not..we then dropped off our small bags into our inside cabin...nice cabin...great shower area..tv could be larger. also, there is only one light to turn the lights on and off and its near the door...we have been on other ships where you can lie More
in bed and shut off all the lights. We never met our cabin steward...he was like the mysterious cabin steward and while he did a great job in the beginning....he did not make up the room on the last night and we did not get ANY of the towel animals.....I know this must sound picky, but you expect those things.... FOOD: The garden buffet was OK...nothing grand here and it seemed like the same ol thing everyday...we ate here for breakfast and lunch..the other thing that is quirky is that while this cafeteria has two sides.they really dont connect..you have to go all the way outside and choose the left of the right side...what is up with that?....and you would think that the food would be the same on both sides?....no...different food....the only good thing for families is that they have a separate buffet for kids...its a cute little area where they have there own buffet items....I have to admit that I went and stole french fries and meatballs on several occasions from their buffet. The thing we like about NCL the most is freestyle.....we have the choice of where we want to eat and where....there are several "free" places, and some with a co pay....We went to the venetian for the free and enjoyed it very much, there was another place, aqua...but the menu always seemed boring...the best place to eat is Bamboo...it has a co pay of $10 and well worth the extra....we ate their twice...my partner enjoys Sushi and he ordered that for $15 co pay...well worth the $$..the other restaurant that was great was Impressions, excellent Italian food and "free"...the one disappointing restaurant was Cagney's.we did not get to go to this one on the Pearl, so we really wanted to "see" what is was like this time.....Its a great steakhouse...but we did not think it warranted a $20 CO PAY....I had a beef wellington in the venetian and it was great. I lost money at the casino...but to be honest...it had a lot of 1penny slots, and when you lose money at the craps table....you appreciate the penny slots...especially PLINKO from the price is right...I won a few hundred dollars...IN PENNIES...on this machine....the only problem here is ...Since when did the limit become $10?...is this a trend?...I am use to $5 crap and blackjack tables...not on this ship....everything started at $10....really cut into my budget.... Everything else about the ship is OK...i did not use the pools or exercise room since i just came out of gall bladder surgery....I was actually lucky to make this cruise....I guess I need to start buying the insurance!! My partner enjoyed 2 massages...they are really expensive..but he said they were great. They have a great card room and a cinema....although I really enjoyed one afternoon of just lying in bed, ordering room service and watching movies on TV....I really am a couch potato. Every night we enjoyed a cocktail at the Star Bar.....All in all I would give this ship an OK experience..the one thing they excel in is Customer Service. EVERYONE was very friendly, and very helpful. Ports: SAMANA:....ok, why did we stop here?...in one word?....FILTHY...garbage all over the place...very scary to walk around...a lot of street people...and really no shopping except for local flea market type shopping....I guess this is an up and coming port?...you have to tender in, and it was not worth the 40 minute tender ride.....my advice....take this off the list of ports of call until they clean up the city, get a dock, and a shopping area where the boats dock....YUCK TORTOLA.....OK...better but again, not what was expected....some more shopping...but not a mecca by any means...a lot cleaner and not as scary...but not much to do unless you are going to the beach or other water activities.... ST THOMAS.....YEAH....shopping mecca....have been here many times, would love to retire to this location....LOVE IT, LOVE IT
Unfortunately, we did not make it to the private island, Stirrup Cay....the sailing day before..the boat was very rocky...waves were very high and we wondered how the tender boats would reach the island....and sure enough the next day the captain came on and said it was too dangerous to make us go ashore in tender boats.....We were disappointed...but understood completely....
Disembark:....went smoothly..we got up early to eat breakfast and opted to take our luggage off the ship....we were in our car and on the road back to Tampa at 8:00 in the morning!...all in all it was an OK cruise..been on better and been on worse....We would definitely try NCL again....we dont like getting dressed up for dinner and freestyle is the way to go......although our next cruise is already booked on the Carnival Valor in April.
before I forget...ENTERTAINMENT:....we went to several shows and they were all wonderful...very different from other cruise shows....they mixed a variety of dance and song and they had a great comedy troop....second city Less

This can not be acceptable for WVU
Are we happy now Mountaineer fans?
Now guaranteed of having the program's first losing season since Rich Rodriguez took over the team in 2001, thanks to Saturday's 31-19 loss at Kansas, West Virginia has nothing left to play for and a useless bye week to think about how far the 'Eers have sunk since its 13-9 loss to Pittsburgh at the end of the 2007 regular season.
Following last spring's annual Gold/Blue Scrimmage both head coach Dana Holgorsen and offensive coordinator Shannon Dawson were asked if the extraordinary offensive numbers posted by last year's talent-ladened unit came from the players or was the result of a system both had utilized at previous coaching stops during their careers.
If the inept play of this year's unit is an example, then the answer is clear-it is the athlete. And, there doesn't appear to be any hope for the 2014 season as quarterbacks Paul Millard, Ford Childress and Clint Trickett may all be back, but none of them have the talent of a Geno Smith and the receiving corps doesn't have a Tavon Austin, or Stedman Bailey, or even a J.D. Woods in the wings looking for an opportunity to become the Mountaineers' next star pass catcher.
And, the blame just doesn't end there.
Every single member of this year's team, including the coaches, as well as present Director of Athletics Oliver Luck and his predecessor Eddie Pastilong need to absorb their fair share.
Pastilong's ego was primarily responsible for Rodriguez leaving for not-go-greener pastures in Michigan and now Arizona while Luck's displeasure of the Mountaineers' offensive attack led him to bring Holgorsen into Morgantown to eventually replace a head coach that had posted a 27-9 mark during his three seasons as the head of the program
Now, fans find themselves having to pay higher prices to watch a far inferior product in a conference where we have replaced the Jayhawks as its cellar dwellers.
Don't kid yourself. There is no silver lining hidden by this dark cloud. And, if you are expecting next year's team to have turnaround season, stop kidding yourselves.
This team is void of the kind of talent Rodridguez and his staff brought to Morgantown and it doesn't appear that there will be much coming in the Class of 2014.
Can the Mountaineers improve? Probably.
Will they improve enough to be competitive in the Big 12 or against opening week opponent Alabama? Not likely.
The entire situation should be as unacceptable to Mountaineer fans as having the president of a board of education not show up repeatedly for meetings should be for local voters.
And, if changes aren't made immediately then good 'luck' selling those overpriced season tickets. Not even beer sales will be enough to bring fans to Mountaineer Field to watch a product that is consistently ill-prepared, and unmotivated and regularly out-coached.
Well, at least we have Marshall.

The Phillies are well known for their roster moves during the offseason and near the trade deadline. Ruben Amaro Jr. is often able to pull off big moves to improve the team and the Phillies have taken heat for not developing players.
This criticism should be looked at again, however.
The Phillies have drafted and developed some very talented players over the years. Here is a list of 10 of the top draft picks in team history.

Main Forums > Pre-HAART Long-Term Survivors
Two down...five more added...
(1/2) > >>
It was nice this past summer to have two issues resolved in my favor...even if one isn't exactly finished with...but getting there. Of course, when that happens a whole bunch of new stuff decides to hop on where the old stuff fell away.Had been having a problem with my left eye starting this past June just in time for my vacation. Let it go for a bit figuring it would work itself out.To quote the late Ms. Krabappel..."HA!"Kept getting worse so finally went to my doc and he gave me some drops to take care of it. Didn't. So he gave me some more drops to take care of it. Didn't. Decided I needed to see a specialist. Went to the specialist and he gave me drops to take care of it. Didn't. Sense a pattern here?Finally after four months of hell the specialist figured out the problem...Floppy Lid Syndrome. Yes, the third grader in me immediately reared his head. But I punched him and he went away. Apparently what happens is your lid inverts while you sleep and over time, if you don't react in your sleep to this, your lid gets stretched and eventually your eyeball and underside of the eyelid are constantly in contact with your pillow case and bed sheet. Not good.So now I have to spend the next few months taping my eye shut before going to bed. This is to keep the lid from inverting. So far so good. I go back in February to the specialist so he can see how things have sorted themselves out. If my lid is still floppy I may have to have an operation to take out excess skin. Apparently you're awake during this procedure, just heavily sedated. I think I'll drink a bottle of vodka before hand to make sure I'm well sedated should this be the direction the curing process goes.However, it turns out about one-third of the people who have this also have Obstructive Sleep Apnea. Since I was already planning on getting a sleep test done in the new year this wasn't so much a surprise as a confirmation. Over the past few years I've grown increasingly fatigued. Didn't really pay attention since it came on so slowly. But the past year I've been phasing in and out of consciousness at strange times. I'll be at one subway stop and then suddenly it seems I've just transported to a totally different one. So this and the Loopy Lid compelled me to find out what's going on.If confirmed I'll probably have to first try what is called CPAP. Basically an oxygen masked fitted to your face to force air into the throat using positive pressure so that the throat doesn't close which causes the problem. If I can't handle that, and apparently a fair number can't, the next option is to have another operation...Maxillomandibular advancement simultaneously with Genioglossus Advancement . This involves cutting the upper and lower jaws loose and advancing them forward and then doing the same for the tongue. Apparently has a high success rate. Added bonus you've got a more pronounced chin!!!Downside is you're in the hospital for a few days. You're limited to a liquid diet for about six weeks. And the insurance company makes you go through fifty million other procedures that aren't as effective but are cheaper before they'll approve you getting this done. And everyone wonders why health care is so expensive.Anyway, that's all for next year. In the interval before the new year there's more then enough time for something else to go wrong...which in my case...it usually does.
I have never heard of that-droopy lid. Interesting. You should hit up Ms P on the sleep apnea-I believe he was diagnosed with this. The surgery you described sounds awful, to me, but I can understand needing to get it under control. Good luck with all this, and please keep updated on the eyelid thing!
As my late Mother often said "gettin old ain,t for sissies " She also thought that teaching me to cook aged 12 was a bad idea because it would turn me into a homosexual so Mama,s saying,s have to be seen in there full light.The diagnosis when it came was so simple, I guess its one off those conditions that needs all meds to fail before the Doc,s consider it.There is a lot off posting,s re. Sleep Apnea and your right Betty Miss P did discuss it.The Jaw operation LTS, sounds very extreme , I hope it does not come to that conclusion.Are you sleeping OK now that your taping your eye lids ?Good luck with it all ,LTSmhtv
hey LTS...so what's the status with your sleep study? I have been on CPAP since 2009; it made a HUGE difference in my life. My partner had a sleep study done awhile back, and how HE is on CPAP also. We are wired up in our bedroom so we look like we're in some kind of nursing home! LOL He has already started to feel better.I hope you get some answers....HUGS, AlanPS I can give you some practical advice about a CPAP mask. It took me several years and MANY tries until I hit on the correct one. My partner picked the same one as me, and so far he is doing fine with it.
Miss Philicia:
Oh yeah, when I first had (undiagnosed at the time) sleep apnea I was falling asleep on the subway commute home and often missing my station. Not cute when you end up in a dangerous section of Crooklyn. Just get your doctor to send you for a sleep study. Since you are in NYC there's a hospital just for ENT stuff affiliated with Mt. Sinai on 14th St. I think I had one sleep study done there and another one done at some other hospital. Anyway, my diagnosis was not severe sleep apnea -- it was whatever level is under moderate so my private insurance balked at giving me a CPAP machine. So I went over a decade living with this, which probably contributed to my developing hypertension by the age of 40 (way to go insurers -- thanks! It's like when you denied me viral load testing for eight months the first year that came out... fuckwads)So when I moved to Philadelphia and was on Medicare by then I went to the sleep center of Pennsylvania Hospital and my doctor wrote some important book on sleep, founded this center in the 70's, and has been on Oprah -- I mean there's nothing more important than Oprah. There are now other options than a CPAP if your diagnosis is less than the severe level. Like there's some contraption that is like a mouth guard for people that grind their teeth but it pulls the lower jaw out enough to open up the air passage, or in my case they first sent me to an ENT specialist and I had surgery to fix my deviated septum and voila I passed my next sleep test so supposedly I no longer have sleep apnea (though I don't totally believe them because sometimes I snort so loud sleeping -- like a pig, not a normal snore -- that it makes me question how I passed that sleep study). I may take one again at some point in the future if I feel this worsening.Anyway, I have friends that use CPAP machines and they say once you get used to them you'll be amazed at how well you sleep and how refreshed you are during the day, void of fatigue.

I started this blog back in last December, so I didn't bother about the spam problem at the beginning.
But last month I started getting a lot of trackback spam, some days even 30-40 per day: I guess this is the new way of blog spam since comments are being filtered by all the CAPTCHA controls or other dictionary based comment filters.
I decided to give Akismet a try: and in the first week after I enabled Akismet I have no more spam on my blog. All the trackbacks are being checked against the Akismet web service and eventually marked as spam.
Their stats say that 95% of all comments are spam: I didn't experienced that number of spam comments and trackbacks, but probably it depends on the topic and audience of the blog, and also, probably their stats are a bit biased because their service is used by blogger with problems with spam.
If you have Subtext, enabling Akismet is pretty easy: just get a personal key (which involves creating an account on worpress.com) and insert it in the comment configuration page of your blog administration.
If you want to add Akismet support into your application there is an opensource Akismet .NET API hosted on CodePlex.
So far I'm pretty happy on how their service works. I wish I could use it also on my Italian blog, on the UGIdotNET blog network, but it's still hosted on .Text, so, no way to add support for Akismet
Don't understand why they don't upgrade their network blogging engine to something more new

Back To The Garden
- At June 04, 2014
- By drynick
- In Uncategorized
- 0
Five a.m. on a gray Wednesday morning. I sit on the glider on the Temple porch. A ten-foot vermillion rhododendron is in full flower to my left – a gift from an unknown gardener from decades ago. To my right, the pansies I put out in window boxes on the access ramp are a profusion of purple and white faces and still remind me of a painting my grandmother had on her wall a half-century ago.
I'm delighted to have come home to this familiar green surplus. Arriving from the airport late yesterday afternoon, I slip my suitcase inside the kitchen door and immediately take off for an inspection tour. Much in the garden has come and gone over the three weeks, but I easily find my way back into the familiar patterns of unfolding shapes and colors.
As I had been forewarned, the hosta have indeed been shredded by the hail-storm last week. From a distance they look fine, but move a little closer and you see the tears and holes the hailstones left. It doesn't look life-threatening, but their graceful and now slightly tattered leaves will spend the summer reminding us of a wild twenty minutes in the late spring.
My potted plants and seedlings have fared much better. (Thank you Jason for your faithful watering!) The marigolds that were just small sprouts are now six inches tall and ready to be planted en mass as a sunny border along the wood chip path behind the Temple. And the cosmos cuttings I separated from the mother plant in early spring are now ready for another permanent home.
There is much to be done in the garden and I am happy for it. I can already feel the dirt on my hands and the quiet satisfaction of the digging and planting, of taking care of what needs to be done. I too am rooted in this garden and nourished by its continual unfolding.

FC Barcelona has tied a record for the best league start in the club's history with its latest victory under new coach Gerardo "Tata" Martino.
With his perfect 6-0 record in La Liga as manager of the Blaugrana, the Argentine has equaled the best club starts achieved under former coaches Johan Cruyff, Louis van Gaal, Josep Guardiola and Tito Vilanova, as well as Jim Bellamy in 1929.
Barça - currently in a tie for first place in the Spanish league with Atletico Madrid - defeated Real Sociedad 4-1 at Camp Nou on Tuesday for its sixth straight win to start the season.
Although Barcelona squeaked past Atletico Madrid last month to win Spain's Supercopa and also got its Champions League campaign off to a strong start with a 4-0 win over Ajax, Tuesday's performance at Camp Nou - the first 45 minutes in particular - was the best by the team under Martino's guidance.
Barça was back to dominating ball possession after raising eyebrows by failing to do so for the first time in several years in an otherwise uneventful 4-0 victory Saturday over Rayo Vallecano.
On Saturday, Barcelona will try to secure a club-record seventh straight victory to start the season when it takes on Almeria at the Juegos Mediterraneos Stadium. EFE

Picture This: DBA Happenings
Bike to Work Day 2009
Fairfield and Woods, P.C. placed 2nd out of 374 employers in Denver County who participated in the annual Business Challenge. This is the third year that Fairfield and Woods, P.C. has participated and each time has ranked in the top 10. (2007 ranked 8th, 2008 ranked 5th, 2009 ranked 2nd).
"We did extremely well, with 76 out of 82 employees." said Joseph Dischinger, "It is hard to imagine our doing any better." Dischinger heads up the Bike to Work Day registration effort each year for Fairfield and Woods, P.C.
"This high ranking is the result of the dedication of all of our employees who biked, walked, carpooled, and took the bus and light rail to work today. Our participants included people from every aspect of our firm, our young law clerks, paralegals, secretaries, senior partners and associates all took part in this annual event.
"Our nearly firm-wide participation reflects our commitment to the ABA-EPA Law Firm Challenge. This program challenges law firms to reduce their paper usage, energy consumption and to purchase renewable energy to offset some of the carbon footprint. The firm has also been recognized by the ABA for participation in the ABA-EPA Law Office Climate Challenge and participates in the EPA's WasteWise program."
Fairfield and Woods' GreenTech Law practice group focuses on clients in renewable energy and sustainable development. "Our continued high level of participation is consistent with our GreenTech Law Group, because we try to make small steps to show that we 'walk the talk' through attempts to minimize our impact on the environment.
"Our dedication to partaking in Bike to Work Day is led by Caroline Fuller, our managing director. For the last two years (in 2007 and 2008), Ms. Fuller bicycled to the office in the Wells Fargo Building in downtown Denver from her home in Boulder, a commute of over 30 miles each way. Due to other demands, this year Ms. Fuller was not able to bike, so she took public transit to work. A long distance participant is Susan Fisher, a litigation associate, who did a 32 mile round-trip bike commute on Bike To Work Day 2009.
Henry Hall Golf Tournament
Seventy-five golfers participated in the 2009 Henry Hall Memorial Golf Tournament on June 8, at The Inverness Golf Club in Englewood. The par 70 course is the former home of the Colorado Open and offers numerous challenges, including Hole No. 3, voted the best par three in this year's Avid Golfer Magazine's "Best of Colorado." The weather was great and golfers enjoyed lunch before hitting the links. Todd Jansen was the men's individual gross winner and Susie Roh was the women's individual gross winner.
Special Lawline 9
The 3rd Annual Senior Law Day Lawline 9 was held at 9News on June 23. This Lawline 9 promoted the 2009 Senior Law Day which was June 27. More than 650 people pre-registered for this year's event. Six elder law lawyers staffed the phones and answered questions about Senior Law Day and Elder Law Issues. Many thanks to the following attorneys that volunteered their time: Sean Bell, Aaron Evans, Marco Chayet, Rick Mishkin, John Campbell. A big thanks to Carl Glatstein who interviewed with 9 News about this event.
Song, Dance & Ethics
What do singing and ethics have in common? Quite a bit, for those who came to the CLE program back on July 9. A few weeks back, the CBA and CLE teamed up with the Law Club to offer a unique CLE program. Members of the club performed scenes that exemplified the type of ethical questions that come up in day-to-day practice, while a panel of experts weighed in on the situations and the applicable professional rules. The result? Song, dance, ethics lessons and lots of laughter.

At DVCon'16, Mark Litterick presented a paper and presentation on "Full Flow Clock Domain Crossing – From Source to Si." Here is the abstract for the paper:
Functional verification of clock domain crossing (CDC) signals is normally concluded on a register-transfer level (RTL) representation of the design. However, physical design implementation during the back-end pre-silicon stages of the flow, which turns the RTL into an optimized gate-level representation, can interfere with synchronizer operation or compromise the effectiveness of the synchronizers by eroding the mean time between failures (MTBF). This paper aims to enhance cross-discipline awareness by providing a comprehensive explanation of the problems that can arise in the physical implementation stages including a detailed analysis of timing intent for common synchronizer circuits.
Mark works for Verilab as senior verification consultant and holds the position of fellow. He is based in Munich, Germany. To see more of Mark's technical papers, check out his profile page on the Verilab web-site.
Even though, you may have signed-off for CDC at RTL, logic synthesis, design-for-test and low-power optimization tools can break CDC at the gate-level, the physical implementation stage of design. Real Intent's Meridian products provide clock-domain crossing verification and sign-off. Our most recent offering is Meridian Physical CDC and provides sign-off at the netlist level of the design. It uses a mix of structural and formal methods to identify glitching and other errors that break the correct registration of signals crossing clock domains. (more…)

The investigation into what exactly caused a Sheppard Air Force Base T-38 jet to crash early Friday morning is already underway.
Sheppard officials say their internal investigation board is already on site.
They're looking at debris from the plane to see if that will give them any information.
Officials say that group will also look at data from their radar tapes from air traffic control and they'll look at the history of that particular plane to see if there were any problems in the past.
Sheppard's investigation should take about 30 days.
Then an external investigation board, mostly made up of investigators from outside Sheppard, will go through their full safety investigation to figure out what happened.

MSC Opera Cruise Review by shanita: Bad Food , Worse service
Overall Member Rating
Bad Food , Worse service
Destination: Africa
Embarkation: Other
My husband and i booked our first cruise to portugese islands for 3 nights on 28th Feb from Durban. This was a themed criuise with a local radio station. The embarkation and disembarkation were quick and efficient every thing in between was a complete disaster.
the food was very poorly prepared, either over or under cooked or stale. what was left over at lunch was served at dinner. when eating at the resturant, atleast one person at the table will receive their serving after every one else has eaten. Any side orders only arrive after we had eaten.When we ask about it, the response is "dont worry you will still eat" and the service was the worst i had experienced ever, the staff ignore you when you ask question or if they do respond its a very short and snotty remark. There was no sense of urgency, no apologies no concern in anything that the staff had to do. There were alot of older passengers on the ship and they were completely lost about how things were supposed to be, we More found ourselves helping other passengers with the things the staff should be helping with. Whether the staff are overworked or not is NOT the customers problem, MSC has to ensure they keep their customers happy, i paid for a service which i did not receive. I most certainly will NEVER travel on the OPERA ever again and will ensure i let everyone i know about the poor service we received and discourage them from ever travelling on the OPERA.
The cabin was sufficient. it would have helped if the shower was 2 inches bigger. Less

The Temple of Taposiris Magna
The temple was built in the Ptolemy era and finished the construction of Alexandria. The temple is located in Abusir, the western suburb of Alexandria. The temple was dedicated to Osiris. Only the outer wall and the pylons remain from the temple. There is evidence to prove that sacred animals were worshipped there. Archeologists found an animal necropolis near the temple. Remains of a Christian church show that the temple was used as a church in later centuries. Also found in the same area are remains of public baths built by the emperor Justinian, a seawall, quays and a bridge. Near the beach side of the area, we can see the remains of a tower built by Ptolemy II Philadelphus. The tower was an exact scale replica of the destroyed Alexandrine Pharos Lighthouse.

Tedisco: Eliminate State Sales Taxes On Essentials For Flood Victims
Assemblyman calls for sales tax credits for moving expenses, replacement of clothing, furnaces, sump pumps, air conditioners, and construction materials related to flooding
September 9, 2011
Assemblyman Jim Tedisco (R,C,I-Schenectady-Saratoga) today announced he will introduce new legislation to temporarily suspend sales taxes on essentials for victims of Hurricane Irene and recent incidences of flooding in New York State. The sales tax credits are for moving expenses (renting a truck, placing belongings in storage) and for replacing clothing, furnaces, sump pumps, air conditioners and re-construction materials, such as dry wall and lumber, that were damaged by flooding. Eligible recipients must reside in or own a business in any New York county declared a federal disaster area. Tedisco's measure would permit localities to voluntarily opt-in and give consumers a break on the local share of sales taxes. "The devastating impact of Hurricane Irene on the lives of thousands of New Yorkers is heartbreaking. Too many people have had their lives torn apart losing their homes and businesses. It's critical that our state continues to do everything in its power to help our neighbors rebuild. Eliminating sales taxes on the essentials for flood victims is one way New York State can help our fellow New Yorkers get back on their feet," said Tedisco, former Minority Leader and current Assistant Minority Whip. Given the statewide scope of the disaster and urgency of rebuilding the communities affected by flooding, Tedisco believes that unless the Governor can lift the sales taxes unilaterally an Extraordinary Session of the Legislature is necessary to pass a relief measure. Tedisco also is calling on the Public Service Commission to protect consumers who were displaced from their homes from being held liable for paying any new phone, cable and power service charges until they can permanently move or return home. He has heard from constituents who are being told they have to pay landline phone services even though they cannot use the phone since they have been forced out of their home. "If you have ever been a victim to losing your home due to flooding, you should not have to continue to pay for new services that you are not going to be using. This is a time to step up and help our neighbors, not take advantage of them," said Tedisco.

Papineau grafting, or open cancellous bone grafting, was initially described 40 years ago for the management of cavitary defects resulting from radical debridement of infected bone and soft tissue. Although minor modifications have been made to the original protocol as described by Papineau, the main stages of the procedure have been largely preserved. The 3 stages of the protocol include debridement of necrotic or infected tissue, open cancellous bone grafting, and soft tissue coverage. This paper will provide a review of the recent literature and describe the technique of open cancellous bone grafting. Illustrative cases of its application in foot and ankle surgery are also provided.

Italian consumers warned of looming energy shortfall
Guy Dinmore, Financial Times
Italians could shiver through a cold, dark winter this year thanks to a shambolic bureaucracy and confused decision-making processes that have blocked vital development of energy infrastructure, according to Fulvio Conti, head of Enel, the country's largest utility.
"Watch out. We are in danger," warned Mr Conti in an interview, producing figures that showed how close Italy got to pulling the plug on consumers when gas consumption hit a record, reaching the limit of capacity on January 26, 2006.
That day Italy used 420m cubic metres of gas. Russia, Algeria, Libya and the Netherlands provided the maximum possible of 230m, some 170m were taken from storage and 20m from local production. "We made it barely," he said, explaining how domestic heating and industry were cut back and some power stations were switched from gas to fuel oil.
But nearly two years later Italy, which relies heavily on gas for electricity generation, is actually in a worse situation. Capacity of foreign and domestic supplies remains the same but, because of what Mr Conti called a "bureaucratic shambles between ministries", storage capacity is less.

Vietnam to stop subsidizing oil price in 2008
Xinhua (China)
Vietnam will stop subsidizing the prices of oil and petroleum products and some other industrial items such as coal and cement starting from next year, local newspaper Pioneer reported Thursday.
Vietnam has annually compensated some 10 trillion Vietnamese dong (625 million U.S. dollars) for prices oil and petroleum products in recent years, the paper quoted Vietnamese Prime Minister Nguyen Tan Dung as saying at a local finance meeting on Wednesday.
Stopping the compensation will help save state money to deal with more urgent issues, he said.
The country will also not compensate loss for cement and coal industries, Dung said, noting that Vietnam has not encouraged exports of coal and ores. The country should consider imposing higher taxes on the products to limit their export and save energy, meeting the long-term domestic demand for them.

Wind Power Sets Sail From Crowded Germany
Sylvia Westall and Jeremy Lovell, Reuters
Nearly 19,000 wind turbines cover Germany: dotted across the countryside, nudging to the edge of cities and whirring alongside motorways.
They generate 5 percent of Germany's electricity -- more than in any other country in the world. But with the best plots already taken, there are now few spaces left where companies are allowed to build more. And it's not just a German problem.
"There's not that much empty land space," said Steve Sawyer, secretary-general of the Global Wind Energy Council, which represents the industry. "Northern Europe is this little, crowded peninsula on the western tip of Asia with an awful lot of people.
"The next big phase of development in places like Germany and Holland will be offshore, where the resources are so much better."

A unique and successful concept
To the Schiphol Group, airports are more than just places to get on and off planes. An airport is like a modern city. Not one that has come about in the way that Amsterdam or New York has, but one that has been designed. Airports are also very different to modern cities however because airports do not have any inhabitants. At the Amsterdam Airport Schiphol location, the Schiphol Group nevertheless provides the service level of a major city to around 45 million travellers a year.
An AirportCity is not just an experience, it is a formula. Our vision on airports. With the most beautiful piece of evidence being Amsterdam Airport Schiphol itself, one of the biggest and best organised airports in Europe.
Constant investments
That is why we constantly invest in more space and better facilities for our customers. And that is why we not only have banks, shops, restaurants, meeting areas, children's play areas, hotels and a casino at Schiphol, but also have a special collection of modern art.
A clear vision on airport real estate
Schiphol Real Estate has played an important role in the development and construction of Amsterdam Airport Schiphol. From a clear spatial planning perspective on the complex functions and high ambitions of this airport, buildings of international allure have been integrated into a well thought out urban planning design.
Showcase Schiphol
Schiphol is a showcase for Schiphol Real Estate. The expertise and experience acquired by Schiphol Real Estate is now also being applied at other airports such as Eindhoven, Lelystad, Rotterdam, Malpensa/Milan, and Hong Kong.

A new accelerometer, the Kenz Lifecorder EX (LC; Suzuken Co. Ltd, Nagoya, Japan), offers promise as a feasible monitor alternative to the commonly used Actigraph (AG: Actigraph LLC, Fort Walton Beach, FL).
Purpose: This study compared the LC and AG accelerometers and the Yamax SW-200 pedometer (DW) under free-living conditions with regard to children's steps taken and time in light-intensity physical activity (PA) and moderate to vigorous PA (MVPA).
Methods: Participants (N = 31, age = 10.2 ± 0.4 yr) wore LC, AG, and DW monitors from arrival at school (7:45 a.m.) until they went to bed. Time in light and MVPA intensities were calculated using two separate intensity classifications for the LC (LC_4 and LC_5) and four classifications for the AG (AG_Treuth, AG_Puyau, AG_Trost, and AG_Freedson). Both accelerometers provided steps as outputs. DW steps were self-recorded. Repeated-measures ANOVA was used to assess overlapping monitor outputs.
Results: There was no difference between DW and LC steps (Δ = 200 steps), but a nonsignificant trend was observed in the pairwise comparison between DW and AG steps (Δ = 1001 steps, P = 0.058). AG detected significantly greater steps than the LC (Δ = 801 steps, P = 0.001). Estimates of light-intensity activity minutes ranged from a low of 75.6 ± 18.4 min (LC_4) to a high of 309 ± 69.2 min (AG_Treuth). Estimates of MVPA minutes ranged from a low of 25.9 ± 9.4 min (LC_5) to a high of 112.2 ± 34.5 min (AG_Freedson). No significant differences in MVPA were seen between LC_5 and AG_Treuth (Δ = 4.9 min) or AG_Puyau (Δ = 1.7 min).
Conclusion: The LC detected a comparable number of steps as the DW but significantly fewer steps than the AG in children. Current results indicate that the LC_5 and either AG_Treuth or AG_Puyau intensity derivations provide similar mean estimates of time in MVPA during-free living activity in 10-yr-old children.

Expo to be extra extraordinary this year
One of the most important annual events in Fayette County is about to explode on the scene—the 20th annual Fayette Chamber of Commerce Community Expo!
On Tuesday, Sept. 14, from 3-7 p.m., all Fayette County roads lead to 551 New Hope Road and New Hope Baptist Church in Fayetteville. If you've ever been to the Expo, you know the excitement it generates and instant value it brings to any visitor, not counting all the fun and friendly greeting from many folks you'll know. But this year, the Fayette Chamber has gone all out to make Expo smack dab full of something for everyone.
At this year's Expo you can: get a massage, flu shot and discounted office supplies. Kids of all ages will have a lot of fun and business people of all kinds can meet, connect, wheel and deal.
You can sample some mighty fine-tasting tidbits from the likes of Pascal's Bistro, Shane's Rib Shack, Cookie Express, and Ohio Hog Company BBQ. Register to win a netbook computer, get in the drawing for Visa and American Express gift cards, movie tickets, tickets to the Georgia Aquarium, or a lovely area rug.
Listen to a live remote broadcast by 92.5 The Bear and J93 radio stations. Have coffee at the Biz Café, sign up for mini business workshops, watch or participate in the Wii Competition and much, much more.
As if this is not a red carpet affair expo extravaganza enough, you can also visit 120 exhibitor booths, a real opportunity to bring your list of wants and needs and check out Fayette's top quality suppliers of services and products, all in one place, in a festive atmosphere. Many exhibitors have special handouts and offers available only during the Expo that you won't want to miss out on.
A big part of the Community Expo fun is to see the fine work on display by the many talented Fayette County high school students, and see who wins scholarship money and other great prizes, including at the youth, senior and Chamber member individual and team competitions.
Who will be at Expo? Come and meet Fayette accounting services, banks, carpet and flooring businesses, colleges, golf & tennis clubs, health care services, remodelers, and so many more.
Expect to be fully rewarded (and maybe a little exhausted and "stuffed") by grabbing your walking shoes, a friend or two, and supporting your Fayette Chamber, local businesses, the community—and not hear later, "Aw, you shoulda gone to Expo—it was fabulous."
And at the close of Expo, you can go to the Virtual Expo online at FayetteChamber.org where you can access more information about all exhibitors as well as participate in a Scavenger Hunt interactive quiz and enter a drawing for an electric table top grill from Georgia Power.

She and David smooched for the Kiss Cam.
In fact, she turned red and giggly. At last night's Lakers game, the Kiss Cam caught her and David sitting courtside, and who could resist the gigantic cursive command, the heart-decorated frame, and all of the screaming fans? Not even Victoria! Also, today is David's birthday, so there's that.

The UK Government have announced the closure of the Yarmouth Maritime Rescue Co-ordination Centre will take place by 1st May 2013
The fight to save Yarmouth Coastguard rescue coordination centre is not over. We are urgently seeking volunteers who would be interested in becoming a local liaison officer or supporters to campaign as an extension of the National Coastguard SOS Campaign in the Great Yarmouth / east coast area. If you are interested in learning more please email your contact details and information to Dennis O'Connor firstname.lastname@example.com
1st May 2013 – Yarmouth Coastguard give final shipping broadcast before handing over East coast coordination duties to Humber
Great Yarmouth's coastguard centre has closed as the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) looks to "modernise" its service around the East of England.
The agency said full operational responsibility had been transferred to Humber coastguard, with further support from the Thames coastguard in Essex.
It said there would be no reduction in crews, lifeboats or helicopters.
Coastguard SOS believes the loss of local knowledge could hit response times around Norfolk and Suffolk.
The government originally wanted to cut the number of 24-hour coastguard co-ordination centres around the UK from 18 to three but, following an outcry, agreed to look again at the plans.
Clyde and Forth stations closed last year, with Great Yarmouth becoming the third to be shut out of eight. It covered Norfolk, Suffolk and Lincolnshire.
It is predicted about 159 jobs around the UK will go through the cutbacks, but no compulsory redundancies have occurred out of Yarmouth's 25 staff, MCA said.
Safety 'top priority'Thames coastguard at Walton-on-the-Naze is being closed in 2014-15, with limited functions such as radio masts remaining at the centre.
After that, all distress calls on the Norfolk and Suffolk coast will be diverted to Humber station.
Chief coastguard Peter Dymond said: "Safety is our top priority and I am confident the same high-quality search-and-rescue service will be maintained throughout.
"There will be no reduction in front-line rescue resources. The availability of lifeboats, rescue helicopters, Coastguard Rescue Teams and other rescue facilities in the area will be unaffected.
"I am very grateful to the staff at Yarmouth coastguard, who have served this region and the local communities here with great dedication and professionalism over many years."
Dennis O'Connor, from Coastguard SOS, said: "We're not at all convinced by what the government and the MCA are proposing.
"We don't believe it's safe and it's an untested system that they're moving towards.
"The question is whether we will be able to coordinate rescues and task the correct teams to incidents in a safe and responsive time."
4th March 2013. Yarmouth Coastguard cease to provide 24hr cover
Yarmouth Coastguard cease to provide 24hr cover for East Anglia as of today after being forced to do so ahead of their full closure by the Government and MCA. From tonight, Humber Coastguard will assume additional responsibility for the East Anglian coast even though they have recently been experiencing a series of communication outages and staff do not have intimate knowledge of that area.
The MCA and DfT will say in mitigation that Yarmouth Coastguard has been paired with Humber Coastguard for years and whilst this statement is true it does not however reflect the reality that the pairing was in fact a formal statute rather than a reality of operational capability. A leaked MCA document proves this to be the case.
The risks to coast users will increase as from tonight but the MCA bosses and Ministers are keeping everything crossed that it will work out. This is the reality of their golden vision for a Coastguard service "fit for the 21st century"
Yarmouth MP Brandon Lewis said he had never opposed the "modernisation" as it was put forward by the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) – the people with expertise in the service.
"It's a real shame that we're losing those jobs, though they have been offered relocation," he added.
"Yarmouth coastguard has been there for a long time but it's the MCA that have made the recommendation and when they're saying this is what we need, it's very difficult for any of us to say 'you the coastguard have got this wrong'."
Well we have news for Mr Lewis. The MCA are wrong and so is Brandon Lewis. He has repeatedly ignored opportunities to establish the facts about this issue despite very regular warnings. We also question why he is suddenly "blaming" the MCA. Is he suddenly attempting to absolve the Government and successive shipping Ministers of any blame?
25.01.13 National Coastguard SOS Campaign Group Press Release
Following recent announcements that the Coastguard maritime rescue coordination centre at Yarmouth is to be downgraded to operational throughout daylight hours only, and the publishing of RNLI call out figures for the past year, campaigners who oppose the closure of UK stations have renewed calls for Government plans to be scrapped before a tragedy occurs.
Announcing the downgrading of the Yarmouth station, the Maritime Coastguard Agency (MCA) admit that this has been forced because of high numbers of staff leaving the service ahead of the formal closure of station on 1st May. The downgrading of the station means that Humber Coastguard will assume responsibility for the stretch of coastline from the Scottish / English border to Southwold during night times.
Campaigners argue that the safety of coast users including Volunteer RNLI crews and Coastguard rescue officers is being put at risk because of mismanagement of the closure plans by successive Transport Ministers and Senior MCA bosses. Speaking on behalf of the National Coastguard SOS Campaign group, Dennis O'Connor said "we have repeatedly warned of the dangers of the Coastguard service haemorrhaging experienced staff. This move by the MCA and Department for Transport is being made out of desperation because they have failed to prove to staff that the future Coastguard plan is safe and workable and clear indications are that the MCA will continue to lose staff at an alarming rate which will impact on the ability of HM Coastguard to be able to react to distress calls in an effective and timely manner.
The centralised call centre is shrouded not only in controversy but also mystery as it emerged earlier this month that the Shipping Minister arranged a media opportunity at the building in Fareham. A very small delegation of media were present but were denied entry into the building and were left outside to await the arrival of the Minister. When Mr Hammond arrived the media delegation were told to limit their questions to just two each and still refused entry to the building. Campaigners say that this suggests that Mr Hammond is ill prepared to deal with his portfolio and question why the media were barred from entering the building. Dennis O'Connor raises the prospect that the building is being hidden from the eyes of the media because it is nowhere near ready and has not been staffed although stations are already being closed despite Government assurances that none would close until the new system had been rigourously tested for robustness.
Updated: MPs say coastguard centre closures at Great Yarmouth and Walton-on-the-Naze have left staff 'disillusioned and confused'
By Chris Harris Tuesday, December 11, 2012
On Monday, the Transport Select Committee criticised Whitehall's reform of the coastguard service, which includes plans to close centres at Great Yarmouth and Walton-on-the-Naze.
It said the reforms had left staff "disillusioned and confused" and "drained talent from the service".
The Government's proposals include shutting stations at the Clyde, Portland, Liverpool, Yarmouth, Brixham, Walton and Swansea. Forth coastguard station in Scotland has already closed.
The Government wants there to be one maritime operations centre in the Solent area, Hampshire.
It would have back up from the Dover station in Kent and eight coastguard stations around the country, including Humber which would cover the area looked after by Yarmouth, which is set to close on May 1 next year.
The report by the Transport Select Committee concluded: "In our view the loss of experienced coastguards is one of the most significant risks to the successful implementation of the Government's reform programme. Years of uncertainty about the shape of the service, station closures and low morale have acted to drain talent from the service.
"We were concerned by the comments by Sir Alan Massey about the small number of coastguard stations in other countries reflect a view in Government that there should be more coastguard centre closures in the foreseeable future. We call on the Government to rule this out and confirm that the new arrangements for the service are intended to last for a generation."
Dennis O'Connor, co-ordinator of the National Coastguard SOS Campaign, said: "We echo the recommendations of the committee and call upon the prime minister to stop the closure plan with immediate effect. Little has been done to adequately address the obvious damage to operational capability that would occur with the drain of experienced officers. They are leaving the service and with them years of experience and local knowledge is also disappearing.
Transport minister Stephen Hammond said: "Safety remains our top priority. Our reforms to modernise the coastguard will deliver a more resilient, and effective rescue system, with faster response times, benefiting all parts of the UK. The issues raised in the report have been addressed throughout the two consultations and in our evidence to the select committee. We have been frank and open in our responses on these and will continue to be so."
Concerns over Great Yarmouth coastguard centre which covers Norfolk and Suffolk taken to House of Commons
Anthony CarrollFriday, October 26, 2012
Campaigners fear this will put safety at risk because vital local knowledge will be lost, although the Government believes the service will be improved and modernised.
The select committee recently met representatives from various organisations with concerns before questioning UK Shipping Minister Stephen Hammond and Maritime and Coastguard Agency CEO Sir Alan Massey.
Dennis O'Connor, of the National Coastguard SOS Campaign, said it was clear the committee had "grave concerns" about the plans. "This is the second such inquiry the committee has conducted and it was obvious from ministerial responses that, whilst there may well be plenty of determination to close stations, there appears to be very little ability to formulate and implement a plan which is both credible and safe," he said.
But Suffolk Coastal MP Dr Therese Coffey said she had sought reassurances there would be effective cover. "More resources will be put into our local coastguard offices that actually carry out the rescues," she said. "Safety will be a top priority."
Suffolk Coast: Campaigners urged not to give up the fight against coastguard changes
They will be replaced by a maritime operations centre in Hampshire – officially unveiled in July – that will handle emergency calls from across the UK.
But campaigners are urging people not to give up the fight and to continue to press Whitehall for a U-turn. Great Yarmouth resident Matthew Smith contacted the National Coastguard SOS Campaign Group and offered to set up a local branch.
He said: "Local knowledge is key for the coastguard and if you take away local stations then you lose that." Mr Smith, who runs the UK Independence Party in Great Yarmouth, said he was motivated by more than just politics. "A number of people we have spoken to are concerned about the closure," he said. "However it's more than just a political point – lives will be put at risk. We are very happy to work with any party who feels this terrible idea should be scrapped."
Dennis O'Connor, of the National Coastguard SOS Campaign, said: "We are delighted there is a fresh groundswell of opposition and we intend to offer our full support to the new campaign group as we fight for the retention of the station at Yarmouth. The key message is that it's not too late. The decision by the TSC to further investigate the closure plan is an indication of the level of concern."
When he announced the shake-up former Shipping Minister Mike Penning said the changes would create a 21st century service. He told the Commons he understood concerns but the shake-up would deliver a modernised, nationally networked, fully resilient service that would give better support to volunteers and front-line rescue capabilities.

Norfolk coastguard campaigners pin hopes on Government plans failing risk assessment
By TOM BRISTOW
Monday, February 27, 2012
Campaigners hoping to save Great Yarmouth's coastguard station are pinning their hopes on the Government's closure plans falling foul of health and safety rules.
At a meeting at county hall tonight, county councillor for South Smallburgh, Paul Rice, called on the Government to carry out a risk assessment before shutting the Maritime Rescue Co-ordination Centre at Havenbridge House.
The meeting, called by councillor Rice to bring opponents of the closure plan together, saw coastguards, scuba divers and boat users come together in an attempt to save the station.
The planned closure, expected next year, is part of a move to reduce the number of centres in the UK from 19 to 11.
That would mean emergencies will be handled by control centre staff as far away as Humberside.
The Welsh Assembly has called for a risk assessment on the nationwide closures and the Scottish Parliament is also understood to be considering a similar move.
Councillor Rice said: "We're asking for a proper risk assessment. I think we could get it (the closure) reversed based on that."
And Colin Mead from Sheringham Coastwatch slammed the plan as "sheer lunacy".
Last month Norfolk County Council passed a motion by councillor Rice, calling on the Government to reconsider its decision.
But amid fears that shipping minister Mike Penning has already made up his mind about the centre, those opposing the closure said lives would be lost if the station shut.
They fear the loss of local knowledge and problems over regional accents would mean distressed crews calling stations in other parts of the country who would struggle to respond to emergencies.
And as reported in yesterday's EDP Great Yarmouth could benefit from £50bn of business sparked by wind farms in the North Sea which would mean more traffic off the coast.
Norfolk's uniqueness in having Broads' boaters as well as North Sea shipping to look after was also highlighted.
Bid to gather support for coastguard station battle
By Emily Dennis
Saturday, February 11, 2012
A campaign to save Great Yarmouth's coastguard station is to hold an open meeting to gather support.
Mr Rice said anyone interested in getting involved with or supporting the move to reverse the government's decision to close the control room is invited to an open meeting at County Hall on Monday, February 27, at 6pm.
He said: "We would like any individual, club or organisation with maritime links such as port users, local companies, yacht clubs for example to come along. Also, of course, any Broads users are welcome to attend as they have a vested interest in keeping the control room open too.
"The purpose of the meeting will be to get those interested together and decide on the best way to take our campaign forward.
"I look forward to seeing people on the evening."
Mr Rice said the decision to close the Havenbridge House control made no sense at all.
"To my mind local knowledge saves lives. There are numerous examples of where this is the case, including only last year when local knowledge helped save the life of a girl buried in the sand.
"What makes no sense either is that there is every likelihood of an increase in demand with more traffic to wind farms, ship to ship oil transfer off the Norfolk and Suffolk coast and increased traffic from Harwich to Zeebrugge.
"You can also add the fact that there is a big increase of 'stay-cations' on the Broads and to local beaches to the mix."
Anyone interested in backing the campaign but who is unable to attend, or who would like further details can contact Mr Rice on 07920 286622 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
il to lobby government to try to save Great Yarmouth coastguard
by DAN GRIMMER Public affairs correspondent
Tuesday, January 17, 2012
Norfolk County Council is to lobby the government to reverse its decision to close the coastguard station at Great Yarmouth because of fears a loss of local knowledge could cost lives.
The Maritime Rescue Co-ordination Centre, based at Havenbridge House, is to close as part of government plans to reduce the number of centres in the UK from 19 to 11.
That will mean emergencies will be handled by control centre staff as far away as Humberside or Southampton.
But, at a meeting of Norfolk County Council's full council yesterday, it was agreed that County Hall would call on the government to think again, following a motion put by Paul Rice, Conservative county councillor for South Smallburgh and a former coastguard rescue officer.
He said: "A core role of this council is to speak up for the people of Norfolk on matters crucial to the wellbeing of this county.
"In this case, the county council believes the maxim that 'local knowledge saves lives' has been demonstrated time and time again across our coastline.
"This council must work hard to retain local knowledge within Norfolk and thus safeguard the wellbeing of our residents and those who work off our shores."
Colleen Walker, Labour county councillor for Gorleston's Magdalen ward, welcomed the motion.
She said: "We feel this would cost more lives and put the safety of British waters on our coastline in severe jeopardy.
"Let us hope and pray that for the tiny savings they are making this will not cost us a life."
Tom Garrod, Conservative county councillor for Yarmouth North and Central Division and a volunteer crew member of Caister lifeboat, said: "It is vital for our crew to have someone on the end of the radio who knows about the current situation."
Richard Howitt, the Norfolk and Suffolk Euro MP, has led a campaign against the closure, warning that the decision would lead to a disaster.
The Yarmouth station is set to close at an unspecified date between now and March 2015.

Officials denied that any technical reasons had caused the delay
The test run for the first Metro train that was scheduled for the end of August has been delayed.
Officials of Chennai Metro Rail Limited (CMRL) said that the delay was solely due to their not finalising a date yet.
The first train arrived from Sao Paolo in Brazil on May 31 at Chennai Port and was then transported to the depot in Koyambedu; it is yet to be tested on the 800 metre test track in the depot.
Officials denied that there was any delay in the completion of civil works in the Koyambedu depot.
"We are just waiting to finalise a date to carry out the test run; it may be done soon," said an official of CMRL.
In August, CMRL officials told The Hindu that Chief Minister Jayalalithaa may flag off the test run and sought a date from the Chief Secretary for the same.
The train has been going through several tests over the last months to prepare it for the first test run; it will go through several such runs before the trial run, which is scheduled to take place in December 2013, on the 11 km-stretch between Koyambedu and St. Thomas Mount.
The depot in Koyambedu, which was constructed at a cost of Rs. 198.10 crore, will serve as the operational control centre for the Metro rail; it was completed in December 2012.
