Other videos put out by Transworld:
There are so many goddamn Transworld videos that we had to make a link for em.
Sight Unseen is Transworld's 12th video offering and has a cast including some of the most eclectic talent involved in skateboarding today. Heath Kirchart, Dustin Dollin and Tosh Townsend offer the stunt-orientated segments, while John Cardiel and Henry Sanchez focus on the art of fast-flowing skateboarding. Also included are three very different montage sections.
Sight Unseen is a video that comes as close to perfection as possible. The video is technically superior to most, featuring the editing genius of John Holland and Greg Hunt. The montages are also put together well, featuring cameos from rarely seen skate heroes like Ray Barbee, Lance Mountain, Matt Hensley, and Tommy Guerrero. From the get go John Cardiel proves that he is more than a typical hessian. One minute he's executing the best boneless ever seen and the next he's grinding a 30 stair handrail. Amazing! Perhaps one of the most underrated skaters in the entire history of skateboarding is Henry Sanchez. This landmark section features Henry's triumphant return to skateboarding. He executes some of the fastest and cleanest lines Pier 7 has ever seen. Check out his full cab fakie frontside tailslide. For a finale, Sight Unseen brings us the always-dependable Heath Kirchart. Heath's part is representative of the patented "Strickland Slow-mo" style Baker/Bootleg fans have grown to love. Expect more Hammertime with finesse. In closing, I'd like to say: Sight Unseen is great but we don't need to see anymore 20 stair lipslides. It's over kids. Go find some shit in a junkyard and build something to jump off of. It's either that or learn some actual tricks.
Featured Skaters:John Cardiel
Dustin Dollin
Heath Kirchart
Henry Sanchez
Tosh Townend
Also Appearing:
There are 44 other skaters that appear in this video for a few tricks. They deserve credit too.

The Peter K. O'Rourke Special Achievement Award
The Peter K. O'Rourke Special Achievement Awards recognize notable achievements in the field of highway safety during the prior calendar year by individuals, coalitions, organizations, nonprofit groups, businesses, government agencies, universities or programs. About Peter K. O'Rourke
2009 Winner: Maryland's Task Force to Combat Driving Under the Influence of Drugs and Alcohol
All 2009 Highway Safety Award Winners
Maryland Governor's Highway Safety Representative, Neil Pedersen, with Liza
Aguila-Lemaster, Project Coordinator.
Maryland's Task Force to Combat Driving Under the Influence of Drugs and Alcohol was established in 2007 by the Maryland General Assembly to assess the status and progress of statewide efforts to combat impaired driving, identify deficiencies, propose solutions, and submit a comprehensive report to Maryland's Governor and General Assembly.
One of the most complete and diverse reviews of Maryland's impaired driving system resulted in a final prioritization of the state's impaired driving issues and 42 proposed recommendations which were submitted to the Governor and General Assembly. The multi-agency recommendations included improvements in engineering, enforcement, intervention and treatment, education and the courts. These recommendations included seven legislative initiatives, of which five were selected as part of the Governor's 2009 legislative agenda.
The staff time and expenses of the Task Force were paid for by the state highway safety office. The Task Force membership, including the chairperson and lead staff person, consisted of 21 people representing a diverse group of public and private agencies and associations which were specifically designated in the legislation. Included were representatives from the judiciary, law enforcement, hospitality, insurance and beverage business community.
The Task Force held 12 meetings, nine of which were convened in subcommittees over an 18-month period. Each subcommittee listened to practitioners and experts in the field before submitting recommendations to the full group. The full Task Force then reviewed the recommendations and issued their final report to the Governor and General Assembly.
The State of Maryland already has reaped the rewards of the Task Force's effort. The final report was reviewed and adopted by the Governor. Five of the seven legislative recommendations were introduced verbatim by the Governor. Four of these have already become law. Additional efforts are underway to guide the passage of the other recommendations in the future.
The high-level leadership and support for the Task Force's recommendations and the development and implementation of these initiatives will advance the state's impaired driving program to new levels and lead to a reduction in impaired driving crashes, injuries and fatalities.
To learn more about the Maryland Task Force to Combat Driving Under the Influence of Drugs and Alcohol, contact Liza Aguila-Lemaster at 410-787-4076 or email@example.com.

"A simple and intuitive interface belies a surprising amount of layers and creative power."
"An interesting well thought out rhythmic playground for coming up with all sorts of cool! "
Jordan Rudess Wizdom Music
"The unique control and power of BIP definitely makes it ... A Killer App!"
"..excellent groove creator and performance app."
Promusic Apps
"Bip is an amusement park of sound and possibilities with piles of potential."
bip is a fantastic creative tool for playing, recording and performing musical rhythmic patterns. Starting with the simple idea of a programmable generated beat, touch and hold gestures are used to select beats and patterns. Patterns of recorded beats can be mixed and matched along with a touch-strip controller for transforming beats. Choose from track templates for quickly creating tracks or spend the time importing and tweaking beats with your own samples. Record and export recordings either as a loop or as an entire song.
bip offers hours of creative composing and live performance.
bip grew from an idea that all music exists already and the musician selects what music is to be heard. Whether it is a violin with a set of strings and a bow or a couple of decks and a mixer, the musician selects and manipulates music embedded within the instrument. And that this process of selection can occur from the micro level of notes to the mid level of parts of a piece of music to the macro level of whole pieces of music. For bip, at the micro level, the basic building building block is a beat. It is a set subdivision of time pre-set by the musician along with a sample and a set of parameters. Using a touch-surface, beats can be selected to play, thereby creating rhythmical musical phrases. These phrases can be recorded and arranged and again selected. Much like the bow of a violin, bip has a touch-strip, assignable to a number of parameters of either beats, phrases or entire songs. Using this in real-time or to record beat or pattern parameters, the touch-strip promotes creating expressive and dynamic music.

You get all gussied up, meanwhile working through the mental preparation for the big event.
Sure, it will be a long drive, but seeing friends, adventure, the chance to mingle a little and seek new opportunities, oh, and the food, yes, definitely the food, will make it all worth it.
The excitement is barely containable as the miles tick by and then finally, you're there.
Only there is no party.
All that's left is dried up food and empty glasses — you missed it.
Now you're starving, exhausted, and not quite sure what to do next.
But at least you can breathe a sigh of relief that you're not a hummingbird.
Because of climate change and early blooming patterns, scientists speculate hummingbirds might just be missing the party on a regular basis.
And with a nectar dependency that accounts for as much as 90 percent of their diet, that could spell trouble if they don't adapt and change their migratory timing, according to the National Audubon Society.
Then again, since there has been no large-scale, comprehensive study conducted, there is nothing to do but speculate.
It's cause enough for concern to prompt a call for help from citizen scientists across the nation and with the help of volunteers everywhere, scientists are hoping to accomplish a task that might otherwise be impossible.
This week, the Audubon Society announced the release of a free app to aid citizen observers in collecting and reporting information that will help develop a better understanding of what, if any changes the little birds are facing as they embark on their spring pilgrimages to feeding and breeding spots across the nation.
"Hummingbirds at Home was designed to bolster current research by collecting data from volunteers across the country that offers important insight on the effects of climate change and the birds' well-being," a press release from the Audubon stated.
"Participants can get involved by spending a few minutes as frequently as they wish to collect invaluable data from feeding areas in their gardens and communities. Audubon's Hummingbird at Home app makes it fun and easy."
Available at www.hummingbirdsathome.org, the app is free and provides a simple interface so anyone from the casual observer to the most diehard birder can contribute data to the study.
An interactive map, sparsely populated as of yet, is also available so hummingbird enthusiasts and participants can track the progress of the study and see the data that has been collect.
Though not yet represented in the available data, as home to one of the more diverse populations of hummingbirds in the nation – boasting nearly 20 species — and serving as a thru fare on the migration path, New Mexico has a lot to say about hummingbirds.
And, whether it's a fun summer project to do with the kids or just a fun summer project for kids at heart, the Clovis area — as one of the few oases in a great expanse of dry and a sure stopping point for travelin' birds — could most definitely contribute to such an ambitious project.
Whether observing a one-hit-wonder that flits through or a frequent visitor to the flower patch in the back yard, it's all part of a much bigger picture of a fascinating little bird.

John Gearhart: This was a decision that my mother had made following the death of my dad, who was a coal miner in Western Pennsylvania and I was placed in an institution called Girard College, which is sort of a strange name, but it was one that was set up by Steven Girard who was a banker and merchant and mariner, who funded the War of 1812 almost solely by himself, which is interesting. A very wealthy man and he had set up an orphanage, and so I was placed there for ten years. View Interview with John GearhartView Biography of John GearhartView Profile of John GearhartView Photo Gallery of John Gearhart
We were disconnected, I mean from the world, in the sense that this institution had -- a remarkable place -- it had a wall that was 12 or 15 feet high. It was up the street from the Eastern State Penitentiary. It looked every bit like it. We were only allowed outside these gates for brief periods of time so it was really like a little, you know, sequestered -- although there were a thousand kids in there. It was a very isolated kind of a thing. View Interview with John GearhartView Biography of John GearhartView Profile of John GearhartView Photo Gallery of John Gearhart
Award-Winning Architect
My house was strange. I mean some of the things I did, like the chain-link fence. It wasn't about what people thought it was about. The chain-link fence, so much of that material is made and used and absorbed by the culture, and there is so much denial about it. I was fascinated by the denial, and I was trying to humanize it, so that if you are going to use it, at least use it, find some way to use it right or aesthetically more pleasing. Well, that backfired on me. Everybody thought I was making some kind of great "stick in the ribs" kind of thing about it. Also, the house was me trying to find my middle class self in a middle class neighborhood. How do I relate to this? I guess I am here. I am with them. They have their cars on the front lawn. They have chain link. They have corrugated metal. They have all these things, and how am I going to? So I dealt with it, but when I dealt with it, it was like the neighbors thought I was making fun of them, which I wasn't.

Vince Gill: When it happened -- it happened I think in 1989 or 1990. And he came to see me play in New York. I was a huge fan of Mark Knopfler's and the band (Dire Straits) and loved their records, and loved the way he played the guitar. Once again, that common bond that would have drawn him to me and me to him was that we liked the way each other played. So there was that, we had something in common. And at the time it was a fork in the road. And the obvious choice, because of what had happened up until then, would have been go and go play with this nationally known band, do a world tour, make a bunch of money, get your family healthy and pay for your house and all that. But I chose the other one, just because I believed in myself. And it was not the decision that would have probably made the most sense for the circumstances that I was in. But once again, I just felt like making that decision was the acceptance of failure.

Q: What's next on the AARP advocacy agenda?
A: We base our advocacy agenda on what we learn from reaching out through our publications, website, call center, and member communications, as well as through polling and focus groups. Right now we're closely monitoring how health care reform is being implemented at the state and federal levels. Our advocacy priorities include strengthening Social Security and ensuring that Social Security benefits aren't cut to reduce the deficit, protecting Americans 50 and up from utility rate increases, lowering prescription-drug costs, making sure older Americans can find doctors to treat them, expanding job opportunities for older workers, and combating age discrimination.

Year: 2011
Country: KAZAKHSTAN, GERMANY, RUSSIA
Run Time: 94 minutes
An absolutely stunning visual delight, BAIKONUR is a most unusual love story. The Baikonur Cosmodrome, an entire Kazakh city administered by Russia, encompasses an old yet ultra-modern space launch facility. Riding furiously across the barren steppes outside Baikonur are rival groups of Kazakh horsemen, intent on being the first to reach newly-landed space junk, which they recycle for a profit. Burning objects rain from the sky on a regular basis. The villagers' motto: Whatever falls from heaven is a gift from God, and belongs to the first who finds it. The launches are monitored by a young Kazakh ham radio operator and space fanatic calling himself Gagarin, after the Soviet cosmonaut. One day the capsule containing a beautiful French space tourist named Julie crashes on its way back to Earth, rendering her comatose. Gagarin takes her tenderly into his yurt and places her on a bier, like Sleeping Beauty. What will happen when she wakes up? Will Gagarin follow Julie to her otherworldly life or remain down-to-the-Kazakh-earth? (In English, Kazakh, Russian, and French with subtitles) B.B.

Probability and Uncertainty in Computation
Recently there has been an increasing interest in approaches based on randomization, probability, and uncertainty to speed up computation and to model resources more realisticly. (1) Given that in real world problems computational resources are limited, and the environment is very dynamic, it is important to use flexible, incremental methods that trade off resources for value of information. (2) Probabilistic analysis and empirical studies of the runtime distributions of algorithms have recently been adopted as a better way to characterize algorithm performance. Such studies have improved algorithm design, leading to anytime strategies, and, more generally, methods that combine algorithms into portfolios. (3) There has been considerable success in developing stochastic local search algorithms as well as randomized systematic search methods for solving hard combinatorial problems.
This workshop will bring together researchers from different areas of AI and Operations Research in order to discuss various topics in randomization, stochastic search techniques, probability analysis of algorithms, flexible computation, and uncertainty. Topics include:
Utility perspective on computation and information
Flexible anytime computation based on utility measures
Probabilistic analysis and evaluation of stochastic algorithms
Randomization to improve algorithmic efficiency and robustness
Design and implementation of randomized algorithms
Stochastic local search vs. randomized systematic search methods,
other stochastic search strategies
Portfolios of algorithms
Theoretical results on stochastic algorithms
The workshop runs for one day (July 31, 2000) and will include technical paper presentations, invited talks, and panel discussions.
The workshop will be limited to about 40 invited participants. Persons interested in attending the workshop should submit either full papers (up to 10 pages) or statement of interest (up to 2 pages). Paper submissions of two kinds are invited: technical papers or position papers that describe opportunities and challenges.
Submissions should be in postscript, pdf, or ascii (only for statement of interest). Submit your contribution by emailing the URL where the submission can be retrieved (preferred method) or by emailing the submission itself to email@example.com or email@example.com. Submissions will be acknowledged by March 15th.

Mexican chef Patricia Quintana will close her restaurant Izote to begin a new project, a personalized banquet service business.
"A goodbye is a see-you-later and ... the moment has come to close Izote, which flourished like the flower of the yucca palm," said Quintana in a farewell letter.
The chef is saying goodbye after 13 years heading the restaurant, located on the exclusive Masaryk Ave. in the Mexican capital.
"I am convinced of the importance these 13 years at Izote have had. They allowed me to grow personally and professionally. Now, you will be able me to find me with the new project 'Izote comes to your house,' where you will be given personalized banquet service," said the chef.
One of the country's most acclaimed chefs, Quintana for more than 45 years has devoted herself to the research and recovery of the origins of Mexican gastronomy with its roots among the indigenous peoples.
"We're closing one cycle and we're being reborn to continue offering you exquisite Mexican dishes that all during my career I have learned about from the gastronomy of Mexico," she said.
Quintana has published more than 25 books about cooking that have been translated into several languages. EFE

Low-Fat, High-Carb Diets Reverse Insulin Resistance
5 comments:
- AnonymousApril 26, 2012 at 1:42 PM
Just keep saying it, and keep on believing. If you believe hard enough, perhaps one day it will be true.ReplyDelete
But until then, every macro-sociological trend runs directly counter to your (wholly unproven) hypothesis.
Adherence to the high carb, low-fat diet has increased exponentially since the 1970s. Not coincidentally, so has type 2 diabetes, insulin resistance, ADHD, and obesity.
Vegetables good. Grains bad. Not for everyone, and not under all circumstances. But for those who have been to the doctor, tried to do what the doctor prescribed, and failed to get thinner or healthier despite your best efforts, perhaps its time to think a new thought.
The state of nutrition science in America is abysmal, and those who continue to toe the party line share responsibility for the overwhelming rise in mortality and morbidity in the last four decades due to diabetes and obesity.
Objective studies are finally being conducted, and results are finally trickling in. The data do NOT favor the diet propounded by the so-called experts. Please take a look at this lecture by Professor Christopher Gardner from the Stanford University School of Medicine. He is, for the record, a longtime vegetarian. He's also a good scientist.
- AnonymousApril 26, 2012 at 2:07 PM
I just love broad sweeping statements like, "It was clear by the early 20th century that diets that include a lot of fat resulted in impaired glucose tolerance." Citation please! In face, since it's supposed to be 'clear', I'd like four or five citations. This sounds more like an article of faith than anything that was demonstrated experimentally. Clear? Not so much.ReplyDelete
And even if it was 'clear' in the early 20th century, it was also 'clear' that radium was good for you, dyslexics were profoundly retarded, and black people were not quite fully human. Clear?
Nutrition science remains in its dark age, and until we can map out with specificity the overwhelmingly complex relationships among insulin, glucagon, dopamine serotonin and the rest, you guys are doing nothing more than spouting religion. And for those of you who make your living thereby, you are to blame for unbelievable amounts of suffering and pain. To earn one's paycheck in such a manner is despicable in the extreme.
If you look at the text version of the editorial, you will find a link to a medical journal article that gives citations to the research that made it clear, by the early 20th century, that fatty diets impair glucose tolerance. The per capita consumption of fat and calories has dramatically increased since 1970, which accounts for the increase in obesity and type 2 diabetes. The increase in carbohydrate consumption has largely been in the form of concentrated sugars, not in the form of the unrefined starches, vegetables, and fruit that constitute a healthy diet for human beings. I have posted elsewhere on this blog that dyslexia was shown in the 1920s to be the result of an inappropriate method for teaching children to read. There was no evidence in the early 20th century that radium was good for human health. By 1930, it was horribly clear that occupational exposure to radium was deadly.ReplyDelete
The state of nutrition science is actually good. The problem is the poor state of nutrition education, along with the generally abysmal state of general science education.Replies
Go Google low carb high fat gorilla. The energy intake of Gorillas and other herbivores due to fermentation or other processing of fiber/plants leads to most of the energy being from Short chain fatty acids. If humans eat the same way we end up with mostly carbohydrates instead.Delete
Doesn't really make much sense does it.
Fermentation of fiber in the human large intestine does produce short-chain fatty acids, such as butyric acid. Butyric acid is an important energy source for the colonic mucosal cells. http://wheredogorillasgettheirprotein.blogspot.com/2009/11/salad-deficiency-causes-ulcerative.htmlReplyDelete
For the short-chain fatty acids released by the fermentation of fiber to be a significant part of your energy intake, you'd have to eat a lot of fiber.

Cuban film director Jose Massip, the winner of the National Film Prize and founder of the island's Cinematographic Art and Industry Institute, or ICAI, died in Havana, local media reported. He was 88.
Massip died on Saturday after a long illness, ICAI sources quoted by the state-run AIN news agency said.
He is remembered as a member of the group of Cuban intellectuals and directors who in 1959 worked to create a national film industry, the AIN obituary said.
Massip's filmography included outstanding works such as "Historia de un ballet (Suite Yoruba)" (1962), considered to be a classic of Cuban cinema after the triumph of the Revolution in 1959.
He also directed emblematic works dedicated to Cuban historical figures such as Jose Marti and Antonio Maceo, namely "Paginas del diario de Jose Martí" (1971) and "Baragua" (1986), respectively.
During his long film career, Massip collaborated with late directors Julio Garcia Espinosa, Alfredo Guevara and Tomas Gutierrez Alea in the filming of "El Megano," worked at the behest of Dutch documentary filmmaker Joris Ivens and contributed to his country's intellectual life as a critic, teacher and essay writer.

News in brief
October 19, 2011 —
Building collapse injures workers
LIBERTY, NY — A gas station which was being rebuilt on North Main Street in Liberty collapsed on October 15, trapping two workers. A majority of the roof substructure and several new trusses caved in during a period of strong winds.
Liberty police, along with the Liberty Fire Department, the Monticello Fire Department Trench Rescue Team and the Mechanics Town and Goshen collapse teams, the New York State Police, the Sullivan County Sheriff's Department and MobileMedic all responded to the collapse.
mergency workers were able to free one of the victims upon arrival, owner Tariq Mohmood Guja, and he was flown to Westchester Medical Center with head injuries. About an hour later, a second victim was rescued and taken to Catskill Regional Medical Center with injuries to his legs. Other workers suffered minor bumps and bruises and were treated at the scene.
As of October 18, Guja was in critical but stable condition.
An investigation into the collapse by the federal Occupational Safety and Health Administration is underway.
Dates set for Tusten zoning review
NARROWSBURG, NY — The Town of Tusten zoning rewrite committee has set the date of Thursday, October 27 at 7 p.m. for a committee meeting at which a decision will be made with regarding keeping, deleting or modifying Article 14. The article would explicitly prohibit heavy industrial uses, including natural gas drilling, in the town. Public comments on all other issues in the zoning rewrite will also be reviewed, and any needed modifications voted on, at the same meeting.
An intended date of Monday, November 14, at the monthly town board meeting, was set for the vote on the zoning rewrite as a whole. Both meetings will be held at the Town of Tusten Town Hall on Bridge St.

I liked it for what it was. I mean, it wasn't the most serious soap. It was never going to win an Emmy for Drama Series. Many times, it was campy and ridiculous and over the top -- but in a good way, unlike Passions. My biggest issue with the show was that they dragged certain stories out for entirely too long.

Good point. However, the only other role we know they are casting for is the father of Mia's baby and I can't see Stabilie playing him as he would be too old to have done something with Mia. So, I tend to think this is for the role of the Horton we've been hearing about. No one has been casted yet so Stabile may have just tested for the role. I would give him a chance but there are others I would prefer.

No, you are thinking of Mark Cameron Wystrach. Nick Stabile was a temporary recast for Fox when Justin and Lindsay went on maternity leave together.
|May 18 2009, 11:53 PM Post #32
Yay! I have him on my blog. LOL.
He's good looking, but he's old now.
Too old for Jeremy!
|May 19 2009, 01:55 AM Post #33
He looks like Bryan Dattilo I think they are even the same age any one sure its not a recast?
Anyways they are replacing the established males and bringing on Passions replacements. After they got their males lined up then they will bring in the women to accommodate its gonna be completely different show aka passion's lite.
|May 19 2009, 07:03 AM Post #34
After all... tomorrow is another day!
Not that contracts mean anything these days, but wouldn't Dattilo still have quite a bit of time left on his contract since he just came back around this time last year?
If the show was to ever get rid of Bryan Dattilo, then they should just get rid of Lucas - the character. He's already barely on as it is right now when he actually sort of has a storyline with this Daniel-Chloe-Lucas triangle.
|May 19 2009, 11:07 AM Post #35
Yeah, a recast seems utterly pointless to me. He just hangs around being clueless with Chloe and occasionally talking to Sami about her baby scheme. He's about as useful to me as Roman is. I don't hate him but there's really no reason for him to be around if they aren't going to write for him.
|May 19 2009, 12:12 PM Post #36
Only three weeks? No wonder I don't remember him.
I don't see why they'd recast Lucas either. The Roman comparison is spot on. Always on the outskirts of a story, if he's in it at all, never getting the girl. I'm not calling for their firing, but I don't understand how either actor managed to dodge the cast cuts.
I think I saw an older shot of him before, because the newest pictures of him on this page make him look out of Melanie's age range.
|May 19 2009, 10:00 PM Post #37
ok .. Just a tad confused, isnt the guy they are bringing for Melanie a DR?? ... And Wasnt Jeremy a Pilot or something? Not to mention in serious legal trouble for human smuggling.
Is there a different Horton he could be ?
|May 19 2009, 10:52 PM Post #38
After all... tomorrow is another day!
It could either be a way too young Mike or Jeremy Horton returned if the characters has the Horton name, unless they create a new person named Horton like as if Mike and Robin had another son. Can't think of any other people who could even have the Horton name unless someone is taking the name out of wedlock through the mother.
I suppose another option would be a super SORASed Jack Jr.
If the show was actually using history in this (doubtful) it could I suppose be Scotty Banning (Julie Olson's grandson and thus a Horton via Addie Horton) in a really weird time warp as he left the show having been accepted to medical school back in 1990 (the role then was played by Rick Hearst who went on to GH and B&B).

The corrupt media, which has no credibility with 150 million people in the United States, is out to get Ted Cruz.
It's easy to see who they fear the most.
But, in Texas Cruz received much love for having the courage to do what he told his voters he would do if they sent him to the Senate.

Gas news at a glance
The Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) has released new guidelines on the management of oil and gas operations on State Forest Lands as part of a presentation before the Governor's Marcellus Shale Advisory Commission. The document starts with an overall set of principles DCNR will use in management operations. It states that the Bureau of Forestry will promote forest sustainability for managing the social and ecological impacts of oil and gas development according to lease agreements and the rights afforded to private owners of subsurface oil and gas interests. The guidelines cover general topics like public safety, ecosystem and multiple-resource management and record-keeping and right-to-know issues. Best management practices covering seismic surveys, well pad sites, water acquisition, transport and storage, water disposal, roads, pipelines, compressor stations vegetation management, invasive plants, restoration and recreation are addressed. The document also spells out the review and approval process, sets guidelines for routine field inspections and reporting and responding to emergency and pollution incidents. A copy of the document is available at http://www.dcnr.state.pa.us/ucmprd1/groups/public/documents/document/dcn...
Texas Company fined for polluting creeks In Clearfield County
EOG Resources, Inc. has paid a total of $208,625 in three settlements in lieu of fines and civil damages to the PA Fish and Boat Commission as a result of the company's pollution of Clearfield County's Alex Branch and Little Laurel Run in 2009 and 2010. EOG agreed to pay the settlements following investigations by PFBC waterways conservation officers and the Department of Environmental Protection which determined that the substances the company released were deleterious, destructive or poisonous to fish. The settlements involved three separate pollution incidents. The PFBC recently introduced a new toll-free hotline for the public to report suspected pollution incidents or fish kills (855/FISH-KIL).
Unable or unwilling?
I read the report and it seems as if "unwilling" would be a more appropriate word since the proprietary issue is why they don't reveal what they are. Did I miss something?

The company probably wasn't overjoyed by a British High Court's ruling earlier this week, either, which found that Clarkson's words were not consistent with the legal definition of libel.
Justice Tugenhadt wrote: "In my judgment, the words complained of are wholly incapable of conveying any meaning at all to the effect that the claimant misled anyone. This is because there is a contrast between the style of driving and the nature of the track as compared with the conditions on a public road... no reasonable person could understand that the performance on the [Top Gear] track is capable of a direct comparison with a public road."
Essentially, Tugenhadt's statement suggests that consumers realize that range will fluctuate given where (and how) the Roadster is driven, and that a track isn't the place where the most range will be eked out.
Top Gear isn't out of the woods with regard to Tesla's lawsuit just yet, though. The program still faces claims of five separate incidents of malicious falsehood: Tesla has alleged that Top Gear fabricated a brake failure, an engine overheating and staged the Roadster's battery draining after 55 miles.
Tesla had hoped Top Gear would stop airing the episode in question and clear the company's reputation, but a court ruling in favor of the remaining charges doesn't seem a likely scenario at this point.

Miley Cyrus. You either love her or love to hate her.
The former Disney Channel star has been making entertainment news within the past year for her sudden and surprising image change. The sweet, innocent Miley Cyrus everyone used to know has come and gone. You may have asked yourself at one point: What happened to her?
Well this coming summer, one private university will be trying something very new to answer that question. Skidmore College in New York...

The hotel catered for smokers. The staff wwere very helpful without being intrusive. Although the room was very clean - the smell of the cleaning products used was quite overpowering.
Clean and comfortable, idea for a stopover close to the airport The area around the hotel in general
front desk is very helpful. SHowers are very small. Breakfast needs more variety, there was hardly anything except bread and cheese
Next to the train and bus station (2 min.). Short walking distance to the old town as well. None.
Hotel Staff very good and helpful. Hotel very central, just round the corner from the bus station and train station and Faro beautiful Marina. Rooms very basic, pillows were so hard. The triple room we reserved was small double with a bunk bed thrown at the botton of the bed/.
Excellent location and friendly helpful staffs The hot water system not so great and bathroom has moulds on the ceiling.
Meeting the man from Zimbawe and also the owner. Very helpful and friendly
The rooms are new and great. They charged my credit card 5 days before I came without my signature or anything.
The staff were friendly. The breakfast was a welcome extra. The room was fairly comfortable and nice bathroom Balcony didnt lock
Location and non smoking floors
Quiet room, nice view, comfortable bed. friendly helpful staff (needed to speak Portuguese). Bus stops nearby, local cafe provided a traditional good value meal.
Reception is very good. French speaking reception. We are able to rent a (bottom-of-the-line) mountain bike at this hotel. A lot of track to bike around ! It's a good place to start mountain-bike ride.
I'd like the staff and the owners, very familiar, helpful and friendly. The drinks at the bar are really cheap, the breakfast made on your desire. It's not a hotel, it's more a family guesthouse. Some things are missing, like wireless internet, no telephone. A frigde in the room is really important at the Algarve. The shower cabin is tiny, the shower head was calcified, missing small towels and bath mat.
Staff were very friendly and as helpful as they could be with their little knowledge of English and my pigeon Portuguese! I would only recommend if you have a car. It was in the middle of nowhere and when we arrived it was about 8pm. there is no real restaurant facility in the hotel and no shops nearby so that evening we dined in our room with a small tub of pringles and airline bought water! sad times! this hotel is a bit more like somebodys house and it was about a 30minute drive from the beach. due to this we subsequently moved hotels after just 1 night.
Proximity to resort. Air conditioning was an extra-this was not highlighted at the time of booking. Also the a/c unit was not effective.
Price of the excellent breakfast Hot water was only aired - would not get hotter. No one spoke English - managed to get by through speaking French
Spotlessly clean, family run business. Lovely clean pool. Very welcoming atmosphere.
Staff is nice, pool is fine and teh pool and ping pong table make it easir to pass the tim Location is far off from anything, Faro is dead at night and not really a interesting town, the beach is not nice, Albufeira on the other hand is 30 minutes drive from the hotel so if you want nice beaches, nightlife and resturants you are better of getting something closer
The people running this hotel were very helpful, going out of their way to make your stay an enjoyable one.
Yhe staff at the hotel were really helpful and hotel was really clean
get waht you pay for,good value lights went in bathroom and the lift stopped working cause the cleaner got the hoover jammed in between shaft and the door,
Helpful staff, pleasant hotel interior, clean room and bathroom, decent bed, AC, balcony with view Ugly street and unattractive main entrance (but a lot better from the other side)
good value for money, very close to train station
The hotel was very convenient for all transport/s. Room small but adequate. Complimentary continental breakfast also adequate.
lovely private balcony, decent breakfast selection internet wasn't working
Good value for money. Reception staff friendly and helpful. Breakfast rather basic
The fact that the room had a patio, and the cleanliness The room was extremely small, and had no view whatsoever, despite the advertised. The room was located at the back of the hotel, far from the main entrance, having to pass through the breakfast room to get there. It faced the emergency exit of the nearby hospital, and since it was on the first floor, I could hardly sleep, because of the noise.
The Residencial Afonso lll was a great place for us to stay as we were flying out of Faro at 6 am. It is a 2 min walk from the train station and seemed to be in a good location. Staff was fantastic and very eager to assist with directions, information etc. Rooms were small but comfortable. A very nice place, for the budget traveller. Bathtub was permenantly stained where bathmat should be and bathroom could have been cleaner. I think it was more the appearance of being dirty (eg old grout, stained floor etc) than actual dirt.
The breakfast, the central location Two single beds pushed together to make a "double bed"
Close to the airport. My flight cam in late and the hotel was easy to find with directions from the airport. Only stayed overnight. Room was Ok. Breakfast terrible. No real coffee or fruit juice.
No room service menu - only on bar menu which was ham & cheese or cheese & ham sandwiches!;
Breacfast on the 4th floor with nice view to the salt marshes I did not now do I need to pay additionally for drinks from refregerator or it is included in price
Good location, easy to find easy to check in and out nice scenery at the breakfast room air-condition was poor carrage was expensive (10 e/ngt), same as bigger cities
No bedside table No facecloth No tissues Very minimalist decor
Great location in the centre of Faro with stunning coastal views from rooftop the Restaurant The noise from the town square can be an issue in the early hours
comfortable and relaxed.Friendly staff who are helpful. Breakfast prepared too far in advance.could be varied.Car park too expensive and poor design
Good Location Information pack in room not good
Convenient location, very clean and comfortable room found the sound proofing minimal with noticable noise from adjacent rooms
The location and the design of the hotel.
We liked the location, the view from our room to the marina, the excellent rooftop restaurant,the friendliness of the staff.
We selected hotel EVA in Faro for location and value for money. Both were excellent. The hotel is in the same building as the bus station for the lines from faro to Sevilla, Spain, and at the same time 200m from the old town. Internet should be free of charge, as there is no running cost for it. Safety box in room was not large enough for my laptop.
Great view , good location in Faro, very nice spa .
Staff were really great, location was good, beds were reasonably comfortable although it was two singles and as we'd just got engaged we wanted a double. Wifi didn't work, beds were crammed in- and there were three, when we only needed the one double- room service selection was really poor, facilities were ok but the pool was absolutely freezing, shower leaked everywhere and the bathroom grouting had mould growing on it, room temperature control didn't work so on a hot day was pouring out hot air into the room...to say it was a four star hotel it has two star qualities. Be glad the staff are fantastic because the rest of it was really poor. Would definitely never go back.
The gym WiFi access not available
practice sports in hotel Gym
Hotel Eva is a very pleasant place with helpful staff and great facilities, which makes it an ideal place to stay in faro,If their is a down side it would be that their can be some street noise but this depends on which room you are staying in as to the level of noise that you will hear.
the location very poor service for a 4 star hotel: no working safe in the room, a mini bar with 3 bottles of water, no working internet service.....
Good hotel
The staff were very friendly and helpful and the short distance to local bars,restaurants and shops was a bonus.
Good location yet very quiet Don't know why we weren't given a balcony when we paid for most expensive room and hotel was far from full
Breakfasts excellent and great to sit beside the window on the top floor sipping coffee and watching planes approaching the airport, with the marina below. Overall the hotel provides very good for money. Internet booking saved about 7 euros per night While we were there we booked an extra night for a fortnight later and were given suite style accommodation for that night, which was excellent recently refurbished accommodation. Swimming pool on the roof is a real bonus, with excellent views across the coastline. Accommodation very central, excellent position.There is a busy street below and the main bus and coach station, however, two layers of double glazed doors and thick curtains means that sleep is not a problem Other guest reviews I had seen were not as positive about the hotel as I thought they could be. Unable to get a marina side view even though requested in email.
Staff was very friendly, the bed was big and comfortable, the masseurs were very good, fresh lemonade to welcome you at the front desk Dinner (not at all what would you expect from the pretentions and the price -was totally average!), the staff, although friendlywas sometimes inneficientely busy - or too many of them, or just not there....
A Portuguese 1800s Palace turned into a luxury boutique hotel with an excellent restaurant overlooking Faro. Avoid high room numbers, it's a long walk to the last rooms.
An amazing mix of tasteful restorIon of Baroque palace with cutting-edge contemporary designed accommodation. Beautiful setting but close to authentic Portuguese small town traditions. Nothing of note
Was there for a short overnight. got off at wrong exit was told two direction signs had come down and weren't replaced. staff is wonderful room very comfortable, you need a gift shop of some sort
Very nice building/achitecture (old palace with modern style hotel complex), very nice dining area in old palace, nice pool, nice rooms, absolutly recommended for short stays Staff seems sometimes unexperienced, for longer stays menu little bit limited
The great staff ,all very kind and helpfull.Everybody is a great professional. Very hard to find ,even with the help of a GPS!!
The staff where friendly and helpful and the location was very peacfull
It is not real palace as for example pousada de Queliz
The staff was very friendly and attentive. The rooms were very clean and modern, all new fixtures and the bed was very comfortable. Gorgeous garden and property. Food left something to be desired, and the pool bar wasn't always staffed - at one point several guests were searching the Spa, hotel lobby, etc. for someone to place a drink order with. There isn't much to do around the property, which if you get cabin fever like I did by the 3rd day, you have to take a cab ride to Faro or some of the larger towns to sight see and eat at new restaurants.
nice combination of ancient building with modern hotel, attractive pool area (with small pool), large room with king size bed, free garage parking, free WLAN, attractive buffet breakfast and some good dinner options
Absolutely everything-the food,the location,the beautiful old palace bulidings which had been so cleverly linked with the new. It was exceptional and I will return
The quiteness, the views, the nice decoration, the pool, the breakfast. Everything was very nice. They don't provide free internet ; it costs 10 € per hour !!! For a big and luxury hotel (and certainly not cheap), they should provide internet in every room for free, we are in 2009.
it was 10m from the beach, not far from the airport and had really friendly staff perhaps the bathroom - but it was value for money
good proximity to airport for late flights, and location on the beach nothing
I loved the hotel. The location cannot get any better, for the beach is literally 10 seconds away and it's only 5 mins by car from the airport, and yet you get peace and quiet since it's located on the isolated lagoon that can only be reached by crossing the bridge. The staff were very helpful, spoke very good English, very kind. They gave a lift for my very early departure and made me a lunch pack. The room had a balcony facing the beach and Atlantic Ocean and the dining space is facing the lagoon where you can see the Sun coming out and have breakfast while enjoying the view. I abosolutely had an amazing time and the very best time of my life. Nothing I can say.
The location of the hotel is very good, just a few steps form the beach. The staff was extremely helpful and nice.
close proximity to the beach and friendly staff made our stay pleaseant and hotel views where decent dated decoration and facilities not enough pillows and uncomfortable bed
Proximity of excellentn restaurants and services Parking problem (no street parking aside from 2 spots)
Location, cleanliness, staff Not applicable
great value for money, good room, not big for 2, but ok. Breakfast is nourishing, the hotel has its own confectioner, all the bakery is very delicious, especially Portuguese national round cakes with custard. The hotel is near to the centre and city mall with shops, pastelarias and small restaurants they have no ironing room or at least iron. Also there is no computer with i-net. So if you are unlucky to travel without netbook, prepare to look for an i-net cafe.
Family room, clean, well equipped. One of the staff members at the reception desk was kind of rude. The rest of the staff was good. The room we stayed in was tiny. The pillows were very old and unconfortable.
location was tops ,staff more than helpful and it met all my requirements of my holiday Balcony door did not shut properly , was no security risk but noise was a slight issue room 207
nice staff, esp at reception, spoke fluent English, well situated hotel, clean and modern it was like it was still undir construction, not complete, the breakfast was not so interesting
The accessabilityto local shops, restaurants and seafront. The smart appearance and politeness of the staff. Newly refurbished to a high standard. Would definitely stay again if in the area.
We have been travelling around Italy, Southern Spain and Portugal for three months and this hotel is easily the best value for money accommodation we found. Staff are wonderful, very friendly, professional and always anxious to help. The hotel has a nice restaurant with a set menu (changes daily) of a three course meal with either a fish or meat dish for seven and a half euros. They also have a great (and cheap) coffee shop with some of the best cakes we could find. We stayed four nights and wished it had been more. Faro is a lovely little town where you can spend quite a few days looking around and just taking it easy. We met people who have been coming back to this hotel for years and we can understand why.
Excellent location and very clean. Also, all facilities are in hotel for food and beverage.
great location. very competent courteous and helpful staff. excellent breakfast! rooms were exceptionally clean and provided all amenities. would highly recommend great value for a stay in Algarve
The rooms are spacious, clean and the hotel is very quiet. The staff are nice and helpful and the location is good, about 10 minutes walk to the city center. The only thing I didnt like too much was the breakfast, as it is very basic. A bit more choice and variety would be really good.
Everything was ok, we stayed there very shortly but it was clean, easy to find,
The cleanliness of the hotel was superb and the staff knowledge was excellent, providing maps and showing you where everything was. The lack of facilities at the hotel was disappointing, there was nothing to do when the weather was bad and I am pleased I didn't have the children with me because that would have been a nightmare.
The room door lock was pretty poor and staff merely showed me how to open it with my shoulder
The room was quite big. It had a separate living room as well a jacuzzi. The breakfast was excellent. It is a bit far from the bus/train station. It was a bit difficult to find it.
parking and cenral
No hastle No
Friendly and helpfull staff.
it was clean, comfortable, good location, close to airport and walkable to all town amenities.
The hotel was very quiet and we had view on a church from our window. Someone walked into our room straight after we checked in - we think that it was cleaner.....
The hotel staff was very helpful and we enjoyed staying there a lot. The hotel is very beautiful, its swimming pool is great too. If bored its possible to play pool or chess. The city where hotel is located has a nice atmosphere. Having a car is a must.
friendly and helpful manager; excellent breakfast; very nice interesting town.
Very friendly staff, excellent breakfast and a great house. Rental car recommended. Great place to relax.
wonderful hotel full of nooks and crannies to explore.great service,nothing is too much trouble.Very helpful manager who is very welcoming and friendly.Had a great stay as it is a great location for airport,motorway and Faro.excellent base. Somewhat noisy rooms opposite village square. breakfast ok for short stay,but became boring after fourteen days
Set in a quiet village it was like stepping back in time on passing through the Doors of Casa de Estoi. Fabulous hotel superbly clean All the staff made us feel welcome and spoke good English.Perfect spot for a quiet weekend getaway.
Beautiful house - lots of history and nicely appointed rooms.
The management immediately make you feel welcome. The hotel is beautifully appointed and the staff excellent. Everyone shares their days' experiences at breakfast or in the comfortable bar/lounge in the evenings. Nothing to fault.
It was a perfect Portuguese hotel set in a small agricutural town with fantastic staff , a lovely room and balcony, small pool set within a relaxing courtyard. Very atmospheric and delightful.
the staff were very attentive and they had a pool table and a number of chess boards just laying around the place, it feels like your at home, there was a lot of traffic sound, you are surrounded on all sides by road and they tend to fly around reving the engines a lot,
The quaintness and character of the house, both inside and out. There were no credit card facilities and the pool was neither heated (as advertised) nor particularly clean. As an aside to the hotel itself, the neighbouring church chimes its bells on the hour and half hour too which can be a bit disruptive if you want an afternoon snooze by the pool!
The birds and the trees. The people of the front desk. They tried to charge me with the telephones calls that are toll free. They are very rude.
Great facilities at a great rate and staff very accomodating. N/A
great area, pool area great and location was super TV was not clear, toilet seat kept falling down rooms a bit shabby,
Nice spacious suite, well equipped, great resort facilities. We felt we were more nuisances than guests at Bobby's restaurant.
The villas are comfortable, nicely refurbished and quite attractive. I did not have hot water in the first day which meant having cold showers... something that I always detested, even if after a lovely day at the beach
Accessibility A bit old fashioned
Low cost Street noise - I was kept awake most of the night, altho I am a very light sleeper............
Nice little hotel, beautifully furnished, with air conditioned and free wifi. Lovely small balcony on the street. On Saturday night the street was very noisy. The rooms at the back would have been better but I believe that they have shared bathrooms.
It was charming
central location, good for early flight nothing
It was secure and in a central location in Faro. Good value considering very reasonable price. Reasonably quiet. No breakfast is included
Central location, "old-fashioned" character, did not feel like just another international hotel, staff very accommodating Facilities were very basic - decor now a little faded
Very central; bed/mattress was good. Room was generally clean. The bathroom was clean but a bit smelly and the door only had a very flimsy look. No breakfast.
great price, location, cleanliness, and friendly host. Also it was in a place in Faro where is easy to park for free near church of St.Peter (Sao Pedro) bathroom was extremely small (could take a shower but could barely move inside without hiting knees into walls)
Friendly and small Noisy
Residencial Dandy is an excellent choice if you need a room in central Faro/central Algarve for a really good price. The staff helps you with everything you need. The residencial is very quiet during the night. If you need to work you have free access to wireless internet. We had a wonderful stay and you get a touch of the Portuguese culture. The building is old and traditional! NB: No breakfast
From room with balcony is amazing view to town. Hotel near to centre and very easy access to/from AirPort. I forgot my mobile in the hotel - Thanks a lot to staff and Elvino, who ASAP sent me the phone to Vilnius.
Friendly staff, well located, clean and inexpensive, would stay again.
convenience to the airport and a good staging point to the rest of the Algarve
hotel in good quiet location near to bus and train station. very clean.
Price, cleanliness A bit worn out.
Staff, location
The staff were very helpful. The hotel is easy acess to the airport and walking distance to the town centre but over looking a park.
everything excellent especially staff no
Easy access from outside the city but within walking distance to the city center
Good location

News in brief
The virus is spread to people and animals by infected mosquitoes. Older adults and persons with compromised immune systems are at an increased risk of becoming ill from the virus.
Last year, there were 28 human cases but no deaths. 2009 reported no cases, but in 2008 there were 14 cases and one death.
Athletic fields referendum back again but when?
LAKE HUNTINGTON, NY — The Sullivan West Central School District board has voted once again to put before voters the question of whether to use a reserve capital fund to add facilities to the school grounds for sports including baseball, basketball, football, softball and tennis.
Instead of presenting the proposal as a single project, however, the board has broken it down into several pieces. even though some on the board argued—and Hilton concurred—that going about the work in a piecemeal fashion would raise its cost. The first of the proposed parts will be a $1.735 million project to create softball, baseball and soccer fields at the high school in Lake Huntington, resurface the track that currently exists at the Jeffersonville campus, repair the nature trail there and conduct a district-wide energy audit. Two subsequent portions of the project, to come up for later votes, would include repairing the high school's stadium turf with more natural turf, preparing the elementary school for new fields and dealing with problems relating to the restrooms, a fuel oil tank and the roof. The third part would complete the Jeffersonville fields as well as accomplish miscellaneous goals like replacing lighting and windows and addressing ventilation issues.
There was some controversy as to the best date of the renewed referendum at last week's board meeting, with proposed dates ranging from this coming October to October of 2012. The first part of the proposal will most likely be voted on in October or November of this year.
What a waste of time and energy.
Of course, more energy is what we need
