In short: Great for beginners, nice route & great marshalling, be back next year!Date of review: November 12, 2009
In short: Marshalling, mile markers and water stations were excellent; lavatory facilities prior to start and baggage handling very poor; hwoever, the positives outweighed the negatives and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Date of review: November 11, 2009
In short: really enjoyed this race and would recommend to all!In full: Date of review: November 11, 2009
In short: A nice way to end the racing seasonIn full: I was looking forward to this race and it didn't let me down. The morning was chilly, but that's how I like them to start with. It was unfortunate that it had rained for several days before as this made the path a little slippy, especially in the last third, but that adds to the challenge. Plenty of places to pass, no problem with the water stops or even the "threatened" angling competition (I think the fish had frightened them away). The marshalling was fantastic, no chance of getting lost and I though the nice lady by the first bridge after the start who gave us a smile on the way through set the tone nicely (thx Di). The mile markers were pretty spot on, which is always appreciated.Bananas, water and a medal at the end were all in order. However, special mention for the massage tent with Thames Valley U which was extremely welcoming and very professional. A donation was asked for, no problem there. Best post-race massage I'd had in a very long time. On the organizer's side, I can see that some people felt a bit aggrieved with the baggage/transport situation. I'm sure the organizers will do their upmost to ensure that doesn't happen again (and maybe a few rolls of bin bags on emergency standby just in case). I was more concerned about the toilet queues - longest I'd seen in quite a while (I was directed to a local café but he made it clear he didn't want runners in there). A bit more work needed there I think.I'll definitely be there next year, if only to try the course in reverse, downhill!! Date of review: November 11, 2009
In short: Great route but slippery and muddy adding new challengeIn full: This was my second HM this year and compared to the road race this one was definitely harder - I did not achieve to beat my time from the last time - but I contribute this to the up hill finish as well as the muddy route which made it difficult to have a grip from time to time .... I have run parts of this route in summer and it is definitely "easier" without the mud ....Loved the relaxed atmosphere and am planning to run it again next year just to see if I can beat my time from this year!Date of review: November 10, 2009
In full: Why did I sign up to run along a tow path for 13.1 miles which linked one dull commuter town to another? Quite a few casualties as they slipped on the fallen leaves/slippery path. This route would be so much better in summer months.Not much of a view to distract you, mind you you had to watch your footing all the time and the guy ropes of the moored houseboats, otherwise you would have fallen into the canal! Nice atmosphere at the end, shame about the start. Not one I'd do again. Date of review: November 10, 2009
In short: Nice easy 1/2 MarathonIn full: I'm going to join in the complaints about the lack of toilets but it's a common gripe about most races. I queued for 20mins having arrived an hour before the start so 6 loos were far from enough. The race is pretty much what you would expect from 13 miles on the towpath. If you don't like muddy, slippery surfaces then don't enter off road races in November DOH! Probably not one I'll do again but I only did it this time as part of my 2009 new years resolution of running one 1/2 marathon a month for a year... so on to Bedford in December then job done! Date of review: November 10, 2009
In short: very enjoyable run- would recommendIn full: This was my first hm and first time on this run. I thought it was a very good course, and you can't complain about a bit of mudiness when you're running on a towpath in Nov! only real gripe would be the toilet situation which needs addressing. 6 toilets for 400 people doesnt cut it i'm afraid! queued 10 mins nearly an hour pre race, and the queue got significantly longer. Late baggage van was unfortunate but Im sure was a one off. Overall well organised and very friendly marshalls + water stations. Will be back!Date of review: November 10, 2009
In short: An enjoyable scenic run, just a shame about the baggage delay at endIn full: A lot of people have complained about the course being muddy and slippery but to be honest I was expecting this as it's a run by water in November!Overall I enjoyed the event. The coach organisation at the beginning was excellent, the marshals were great, water stations were frequent so my only gripes were: i)standing at the end for a good 20mins waiting for my kit to arrive in just a vest top - I was freezing! and ii) not enough loos - queued for 18mins as was timing it. Despite this I would still do it again.Date of review: November 9, 2009
In short: Lovely run although, whoever decided to put that upward climb at 12miles may have been called a few names on the day!Date of review: November 9, 2009

MARCUS FRANKLIN and JAMIE THOMPSON
New Orleans' poor blacks were already at a disadvantage. Could more be done to help?
NEW ORLEANS - A black woman stood outside the city's convention center, surrounded by thousands of hungry, sick and frustrated residents.
Javelin Coleman, 20, arrived at the center by canoe. Now, several days later, and with no car, she and her 3-month-old son had no way to escape. "I got stuck here," she said.
Some 600 miles away in Tampa, a white man, Dave Dickson, enjoyed a Diet Coke and a muffin. He and his wife, Barbara, evacuated their $300,000 home in New Orleans and drove to Florida.
"I feel very fortunate that my friends and family are safe," said Dickson, 56.
In Hurricane Katrina's baneful aftermath, the dichotomy of New Orleans has become increasingly apparent. In image after image, the victims left to suffer appear to be mostly poor and black.
Why? Part of the answer is that two-thirds of New Orleans' population is black.
But history suggests an uglier explanation:
Black residents long ago were pushed into the swampy, low-lying lands of New Orleans, while rich white residents built on higher plots.
So when Katrina unleashed its fury, poor residents who could not afford to flee were most vulnerable. And, when the skies cleared, they were left to endure the floodwaters and lingering misery.
Black leaders expressed outrage Friday at the relief effort, wondering if it would have been more urgent for white victims. They also wondered if disaster planners gave enough thought to protecting poor residents.
"I do think the nation would be responding differently if they were white elderly and white babies actually dying on the street," said David Billings of the People's Institute, a 25-year-old New Orleans organization focused on ending racism.
Not everyone agreed. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, for one, denied the claim.
"That Americans would somehow, in a color-affected way, decide who to help and who not to help, I just don't believe it. Americans are generous to each other," said Rice, who is black.
"It's been hell," Coleman said as she stood outside the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center. "We're just trying to survive and get out of here."
She arrived at the center with only the clothes on her back and her son on her hip.
Coleman is unemployed. She said she stole milk and diapers for her son, Andrew. Deliveries of water and packaged meals have been few, with little medicine or milk in sight. She has been forced to improvise.
She gives Andrew two cans of water for every can of milk, even though his doctor warned against water because it can induce seizures, she said. One day this week, she fed him Pet Milk.
"I don't have any other choice," she said.
For Dickson, surviving Katrina has been easier.
An oil engineer for Halliburton, Dickson and his wife, a private school administrator, earn between $100,000 and $200,000 a year, he said.
They made quick decisions about what possessions to take before leaving town: family photographs and expensive jewelry.
They left behind his Honda motorcycle and pricey artwork. Turns out, their home was unscathed.
Coleman's neighborhood looked like a bomb had been dropped.
To be sure, white, black, Hispanic, rich, poor, young and old suffered from Hurricane Katrina.
But it came as no surprise to disaster planners, professors and historians that New Orleans' poorest neighborhoods suffered most.
The poorest residents have long lived in the city's low-lying areas, starting in the 1830s when well-off whites built homes on higher ground near Mississippi River levees, Craig E. Colten, a geography professor at Louisiana State University, told the Philadelphia Daily News.
Since the 1890s, those lower areas have been occupied largely by African-Americans. The Lower 9th Ward, where the worst flooding occurred, is 98 percent black.
Like other cities, white residents have left the urban area in droves.
New Orleans isn't completely segregated. Run-down shotgun homes sidle up to well-appointed Creole cottages.
And while the city has its share of wealthy white residents, it also has wealthy and powerful black residents.
But in Orleans Parish, 21 percent of households earn less than $10,000 a year. Nearly 27,000 families are below the poverty level. Most of those families are black.
While an estimated 80 percent of the city's population evacuated, tens of thousands stayed behind with no resources and no way out.
The images of the black poor struggling in New Orleans' chaos should be "a powerful wakeup call," said Dr. Jeff Johnson, a professor at the University of Maryland's School of Medicine.
"The message is that these people are in some sense abandoned, and that's why they're so angry," he said. "But that abandonment occurred not just around this storm."
Black lawmakers expressed frustration with the relief effort.
"It looks dysfunctional to me right now," said Rep. Diane Watson, D-Calif.
She and members of the Congressional Black Caucus, NAACP and other groups suggested the response was slow because those most affected are poor.
The Rev. Al Sharpton described the response as intolerable: "If we were not dealing with black people and poor people, we would not be dealing with this snail's pace reaction."
Black leaders and professors also said Friday they fear the long-term effects of Katrina.
Images of black people "looting" stores and reports of crime in the city have depicted blacks negatively, said Thomas J. Durant Jr., a black sociology professor at Louisiana State University.
"The reports are greatly exaggerated, I believe," Durant said. "I think it presents an image that has a drastic psychological impact on the rest of the population and creates fear."
Scholars and social commentators across the country question whether the new New Orleans will be as black as it was. Poor black residents won't be able to wait for a long reconstruction effort, Durant said.
And if black residents don't go back, how will they fare in new communities?
"These are people who didn't have much to begin with," Durant said. "Now they have close to nothing. How will America respond? Will we embrace them?"
With temperatures climbing into the 90s, Coleman remained at the convention center.
A man's body lay beneath a white sheet on the first floor. The smell of sweat and urine filled the air. Thousands of men, women and children sat in the unlit, sweltering center, heads held in their hands.
Others stood outside and yelled at the rare passing car: "Take us to Baton Rouge!"
Dickson, meanwhile, planned to stay with his wife in Florida until power is restored in New Orleans.
"We don't feel guilty. We feel fortunate," Dickson said. "Do we feel like we need to help? Yes. Can we? Yes. Will we? Yes."
Coleman, like thousands in New Orleans, waited for one of the buses that had been promised for days.
She didn't know where she was going.
She didn't know whether she would be back.
-- Staff writers Rebecca Catalanello, Eric Deggans, Matthew Waite and researcher Cathy Wos contributed to this report, which also contains information from the Associated Press, the Philadelphia News and the New York Times News Service.

OKLAHOMA CITY — The Tennessee Lady Vols (38-6, 12-3 SEC) supplanted Arizona State (38-5, 9-3 Pac-12) for the No. 2 overall spot in this week's ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 poll following a 4-0 week that included a sweep of conference foe Auburn. The Sun Devils had held the second position for five consecutive polls leading up to this week. Despite the shift in the top three, both teams continue to chase the No. 1 Oklahoma Sooners (37-2, 6-0 Big 12) who picked up three more wins over the weekend in a series sweep at Texas Tech.
Click here to see the complete ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25
The Sooners traveled to Lubbock, Texas on Friday for their second conference series of the year. In game one, the defending USA Softball Collegiate Player of the Year Keilani Ricketts (San Jose, Calif.) shut down the Red Raiders picking up her fourth career no-hitter and third of the season in a 9-0 Oklahoma win. In game two, the Sooners again shutout Texas Tech for a 6-0 win. On Sunday, Oklahoma completed the series sweep with Ricketts picking up her second win of the weekend, this time by a final of 13-7. For their efforts, Oklahoma swept all 20 first-place votes, their second-consecutive sweep and third of the season.
Tennessee began the week with a 12-3 (5 inning) win over in-state opponent Tennessee Tech. The Lady Vols, riding a 12-game winning streak, then welcomed Auburn to Knoxville for a three game series. In game one, the Lady Vols relied on the sister pitching duo of Ellen and Ivy Renfroe (Jackson, Tenn.) to get the 5-3 win. Tennessee extended its winning streak to 14 by defeating Auburn 6-1 on Saturday and 6-0 on Sunday for the series sweep.
Arizona State finished the week with a 2-1 record that included 7-1 and 2-1 wins over then-No. 13 Washington but a 3-1 loss on Friday was enough to drop the Sun Devils one spot in this week's poll.
Florida (41-5, 14-4 SEC) remains No. 4 this week. The Gators went 3-1 with a 9-1 win over now-No. 24 South Florida (35-12, 13-1 Big East) early in the week and a pair of wins over then-No. 19 Kentucky (31-12, 9-6 SEC) in SEC play. The Wildcats took one game from Florida on Saturday to avoid the sweep.
Oregon (36-6, 13-2 Pac 12) cracks the Top 5 for the first time this season after coming in at No. 6 in last week's poll. The Ducks swept then-No. 22 Arizona (27-17, 4-8 Pac-12) over the weekend to improve their conference record to 13-2. Oregon took game one of the series 5-3 and followed it with back-to-back run-rules to secure the sweep.
Rounding out the Top 10: No. 6 Alabama (37-6, 10-5 SEC) played just two games over the week, but came out ahead in both defeating Mississippi Valley State 8-5 on Tuesday and UAB 11-0 the following day; No. 7 Texas (38-4, 8-0 Big 12) held their spot on the poll following a conference sweep of Iowa State; No. 8 Louisville (37-6, 10-1 Big East) advanced two spots this week following five wins in which they outscored opponents 48-11; No. 9 Michigan (38-7, 12-0 Big 10) moved into the Top 10 for the first time since Week 14 of the 2011 season. The Wolverines went 4-0 on the week and swept Michigan State in a three-game series; No. 10 California (32-8, 7-5 Pac-12) dropped two spots following a 2-2 week that included a pair of losses to then-No. 21 UCLA (28-14, 5-10 Pac-12).
Rejoining the Top 25 this week is No. 24 South Florida (35-12, 13-1 Big East), who last appeared in the Top 25 in week 2 of this season. Each receiving 24 points in this week's poll, North Carolina (33-15, 10-5 ACC) and Arizona (27-17, 4-8 Pac-12) round out the poll tied at No. 25.
The ESPN.com/USA Softball Collegiate Top 25 Poll is voted on by coaching representatives from 11 Division I Conferences in the 15 ASA/USA Softball Regions as well as members of National and Local media who consistently cover Division I Softball across the country.

From Greenock to Stornoway, Stirling to Nairn. Our production of Handel's Rodelinda travelled the length and breadth of Scotland during Autumn 2013.
Director Chris Rolls, designer Oliver Townsend and lighting designer Mark Howland use their extensive theatrical expertise to capture the drama, and the elegance, of one of Handel's most successful operas. Against a backdrop of faded Baroque grandeur, a cast of very contemporary characters tells a compelling tale of tyranny, love and the corrupting nature of power.
Bertarido, King of Lombardy, has been defeated in battle and his enemy Grimoaldo has seized his throne. Bertarido's queen, Rodelinda, mourns bitterly, little knowing that her husband is feigning death in order to exact revenge. Alone in a world of ruthless Machiavellian intrigue, where every wall has ears, she agrees to marry Grimoaldo. Distraught, Bertarido dismisses her as faithless, but allegiances change in the flick of a knife, and nothing is ever quite what it seems.
Touring 16 of Scotland's smaller venues in Autumn 2013, Rodelinda is accompanied by three instrumentalists – on harpsichord, violin and cello – giving a strong flavour of the orchestra for which Handel originally wrote. The sensuous score is full of fragility, beauty and darkness, contrasting moments of frantic energy with those of exquisite stillness, reflecting the human passions at its core.
26 Sep to 2 Nov 2013
Toured to: Greenock, Fort William, Ullapool, Stornoway, Wick, Inverness, Ellon, Stirling, Dumfries, Helensburgh, Dundee, Aboyne, Nairn, Dunfermline, Kelso and Musselburgh.
Listen to extracts from Rodelinda:
L'empio rigor del fato
Lo farò. Dirò: Spietato

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (53 votes).
In short: Well-organised friendly and rewarding raceIn full: This race is excellent value - t-shirt, medal, bag (and up to 12 free hair bands!). Split times are printed out and handed to you with your medal as soon as you pass the finish line, which is pretty awesome. It's a friendly race, run in laps so you get to pass your supporters regularly and get cheered on. The scenery is lovely, grass, past a picturesque pond, through woodland and a couple of hills thrown in to make it a challenging race as well. I run this every year and it is one of my favourite races. It's a tough course, but I would thoroughly recommend it. :-)Date of review: October 31, 2014
In short: Really tough race but worth it for the organisation and sense of achievement when you finishDate of review: October 27, 2014
In short: Tough but scenic off road marathonIn full: Really well organised, great marshaling, lovely scenic route but really tough and grueling. Plus points are the really cheap entry which incudes a medal, tshirt and print out of split times. Only negatives were could have been a few portaloos and some of the music choices, candle in the wind after 17 miles not exactly inspiring but did make me chuckle!Date of review: October 27, 2014
In short: Well organised off roader. Big Hill!In full: Really enjoyed this twelve lapper. Brilliantly organised, and the marshals were superb. Great team you got there! Splits printed out and handed to you as you finish... wow. Great medal, nice warm T shirt for the cold months ahead. Will be looking at doing some of your longer ones maybe in the new year. Thanks. Date of review: October 26, 2014
In short: Very enjoyable despite tough weather conditions Date of review: October 28, 2013
In short: Tough run but rewardingDate of review: October 28, 2013
In short: Tough but rewardingIn full: As this was my first off road marathon I approached with a philosophical mind. Wasn't sure about the laps. Wasn't sure about the mud! Had a great time and somehow got within 10 minutes of my "road" personal best. Two inclines are hills by the end and not to be taken lightly. Overall would recommend but not for your first marathon.Date of review: November 21, 2012
In short: Really enjoyable, friendly race.In full: Not usually a fan of off road races, I really enjoyed this run. It was well organised, friendly, encouraging marshalls, free tea and cake and a great atmosphere. Had a great time despite the chilly weather and would definitely do this race again.Date of review: November 12, 2012
In short: Definitely worth getting up for In full: This was my first half marathon and 2nd trail run. But my shoes tackled the mud and hills perfectly.I found the hills quite brutal towards the end but they were part of the challenge. I suffered with a previous knee injury but still crossed the line in a respectable time for my experience. The organisers where helpful and supportive and made the experience worthwhile.One of the sponsors didn't turn up which I found to be rather disrespectful but that didn't effect the race. I'll definitely consider doing this again next year and beat my timeDate of review: November 1, 2012
In short: Thoroughly enjoyedIn full: I'm a 'newby' to off road running and was scared at the start when trail shoes were recommended! However plenty of people managed in trainers like me and it was OK. There were 6 laps for this half and the first lap I thought 'it's not hilly just undulating' but by the next lap they felt more like hills. Always short though, no long drags. The atmosphere and organisation were splended and I thoroughly appreciated the tea (even if badly made!) and cake at the end.I was anxious about the bag storage being the space behind the registration desk and put my bag in unnecessarily early because of this but most runners seemed to driver there and not require bag storage.The course was 50% undulations on grass and 50% muddy trails in the woods.I ran 14 mins slower than my pb (of 2 hours) and i will definitely be back next year!Thanks to the marshalls/organisers.Date of review: October 28, 2012

Filing Procedures
How to File
After you complete a court form or a document of your own, you must file the original with the court and serve a copy on the other parties. To file papers with the court, give them to the clerk at the courthouse, or you can file papers by mail but not by fax. If you file by mail, it's a good idea to use registered or certified mail, because you are responsible for non-delivery. For example, a document is not filed until the court receives it. If the document goes missing in the mail, it is not filed even though you sent it.

The person filing a document must exclude any non-public information from it and must declare that s/he has done so. If you are preparing the document from scratch or completing a court form, omit any non-public information. If you are filing a document prepared apart from the court process that happens to contain non-public information, redact the non-public information. Non-public information contained in a public document will be accessible, possibly on the internet. The judicial services representative will not redact the non-public information for you. You may still have to provide the court with the non-public information, and you should do so on a separate document. The courts have 4 forms for providing some of the more common pieces of non-public information to the court in a confidential manner. For more information, see our webpage on Non-public Records.
Where to File
If you are filing a complaint or petition to start a case, you must file it in the correct court. This is called "jurisdiction." Most complaints and petitions described on this website should be filed in the district court. You can file a small claims case in the justice court. And you can file a petition for a child protective order or voluntary consent to terminate parental rights in the juvenile court. Otherwise, you will probably file your complaint in the district court.
The complaint or petition also has to be filed in the correct county, and there may be more than one correct county to choose from. This is called "venue." The county in which the defendant lives and the county in which the case arose are almost always the correct county. There may be others for particular types of cases. If there is more than one correct county, you can file the case in the one that is most convenient. You can find the venue requirements in the Utah Code.
File forms and documents after the initial complaint in the clerk's office of the court in which the case is pending.
When to File
You have to file before the deadline. Different papers have different deadlines. If you are filing a complaint or petition, you must file it within the deadline created by the Statute of Limitation. If you are filing an Answer to a complaint or petition, you should have been served with a Summons that tells you the deadline. The deadline for other documents is governed by the Rules of Civil Procedure.
Many deadlines are calculated from the day you were served. Once you know the number of days after service that you have to file something, Rule of Civil Procedure 6 tells you how to calculate the deadline date:
- Do not count the day you were served. For example, if you have to file an Answer within 21 days from the day you were served and you were served on June 17, then June 18 is day 1, June 19 is day 2, etc.
- Do count the last day, unless it is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday. For example, if you have 21 days in which to file a document and day 21 is a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, file the document on the next business day.
- If the time period is stated in days, count intermediate Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays.
- If the time period is stated in hours, count intermediate Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays. If the period would end on a Saturday, Sunday or legal holiday, the period continues to run until the same time on the next business day.
- If you file by mail, add three days to the deadline, and mail the papers so they arrive by the deadline. For example, if you have 21 days in which to file a document and you file by mail, the court must receive it by day 24.
There are other requirements, so read the rule carefully.
If you file in person, you must be in the clerk's office before closing. Some courts do not accept filings shortly before closing. Call the clerk's office to check on local procedure.
For more information, see Rule of Civil Procedure 6.
Filing Fee
There is a filing fee for nearly all complaints and petitions and for many other documents as well. Filing fees are established by Utah Code Section 78A-2-301. For more information, see our webpage on Fees.
If you cannot afford the filing fees, you can ask that they be waived. You will be asked to complete forms with detailed financial information. The fee initially will be waived and your filing accepted, but a judge will review your financial information and decide whether you have to pay later. For more information, see our webpage on Fee Waiver.
If you do not ask that the fee be waived, you must pay the fee when you file the papers. If you file by mail, include a check for the filing fee.
Entities other than the court also charge fees, which may not be waived by the Application for Waiver of Court Fees. For example, the county sheriff or constable must serve papers for free, but a private process server may still charge a fee. The county recorder will charge a fee to record a judgment. If you subpoena a witness to appear at the trial, the witness fee is $18.50 for the first day and $49.00 for subsequent days plus $1 for every 4 miles over 50 miles one way.
"Service" simply means delivering the forms or documents to the other parties, but you must deliver them in special ways. If you are filing a complaint or petition to start a case, you must serve the defendant/respondent under Rule of Civil Procedure 4. If you are filing papers in a case that already exists, you must serve a copy on the lawyer for each of the other parties under Rule of Civil Procedure 5. If a party does not have a lawyer, serve the party.
You are also responsible for filing proof that the forms or documents have been served. For more information, see our webpage on Serving Papers.
Special Procedures
Ask the clerk whether a courtesy copy is required. A courtesy copy is a personal copy for the judge or commissioner. Not all judges and commissioners require a courtesy copy. Ask the clerk if there are any local filing requirements.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (589 votes).
In short: One of the most incredible running events in the universeIn full: Thank you to Dr Rob and everyone / anyone else in the Trionium organisation for staging another magnificent start to the year. And to the marshals, St John's Ambulance and all the runners.This was my 3rd Knacker Cracker and a new PB - only because it's a new course and it's the only 12k I've ever raced. The extra half a hill was nasty, though I liked the downhill bit in the middle.Came a cropper hurtling down the muddy steps yet picked myself up and kept going. If anyone's unfamiliar with this race, check out the race website for the photos - now that it's a mass start, albeit from the bottom of the hill this year, the sight of 200 runners in various states of fancy dress marauding down the hill must surprise a few new year dog walkers.The camaraderie around the course and the food and mementoes at the end make this a truly memorable race.Date of review: March 12, 2012
In short: wouldnt miss this for anything !!In full: some are mad to do this VERY tough and hilly race and some are even madder to come back and do it again... so having been told by my doctor i have a herniated disc and to rest there was no way i should have thought about running this but somehow on new years day morning i found myself liling up for my 5th knacker cracker!! yes this race is so good you just cant miss it...As always dr.rob used his thought of what goes up must come down but then go up even further and so the extra climb of the zig zag road was hard work but it as great and as in all the previous years very well organised and marshalled.My only moan was the loss of the moto britains hardest 10k maybe it should now be britains hardest 12k !! well done rob and team will be back again next year.Date of review: January 21, 2012
In short: Hard, hilly, not for the faint hearted but what a way to start the New Year! Date of review: January 8, 2012
In short: ABSOLUTLEY FABULOUS DARLINGS ! Its all been said before !Date of review: January 7, 2012
In short: Just a brilliant way to blast away christmas excess. Tough but great fun.Date of review: January 4, 2012
In short: First class race. Fantastic scenery, marshalls excellent. Great way to start the year!In full: First time doing Knacker Cracker and it was so tough. Enjoyed every moment and the support from the crowds at the lookout added to a very special race.Date of review: January 4, 2012
In short: ouch. two days later! Great race, excellent costumes and thanks as ever to marshalls.Date of review: January 3, 2012
In short: Most challenging 12k for some time which might be explained by the hills, steps, mud and a very late night before - great start to the New Year and uplifting experienceDate of review: January 3, 2012
In short: Much more fun than having a hangover all New Year's Day. Superbly organised.Date of review: January 3, 2012
In short: Best fun everIn full: Firstly, a big no huge thank you to the marshals.Great course, liked the ZigZag element. Hats off to the guy who ran in bare feet. Great mug (no doubt will cause more comments in the kitchen at work!) and top.Will be back for more next year - Well done Rob and coDate of review: January 3, 2012

The Return of the Griswolds
June 7, 2011
As a new brand in category that is relatively unknown to Americans, competing against hotels that outspend HomeAway 30:1, HomeAway needed a fresh idea to establish the notion of an alternative to hotels and put it on the proverbial map....quickly. Using social media, PR, the Super Bowl and especially, a short film, to generate traffic was that fresh approach the brand needed.

Canada Still Unsure on F-35 Purchase, Italian PM Candidate Plans to Trim Orders
Shane McGlaun
December 10, 2012 9:42 AM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
The loss of the major partner in the F-35 program could be a death blow
The beleaguered F-35 Lightning II program keeps taking blows. Two partner countries, Canada and Italy, are now indicating the possibility of cutting orders for the F-35. Each time a partner nation slashes its orders, the price goes up for each jet purchased by other partner countries.
In April of 2012, the Canadian defense minister landed in
hot water
over allegations of not sharing information on expected costs the F-35 program. Canadian defense minister Peter MacKay admitted in April that he knew the fighter program could cost Canada as much as $25 billion. That price is billions of dollars more than Canadian officials publicly acknowledged.
At the time, Canadian lawmakers
put a cap on spending for the F-35 program
and this week more rumors have surfaced suggesting that Canada could drop the F-35 program entirely. While Canadian officials have dismissed any reports that it is planning to cancel the purchase of 65 F-35 fighters, some have gone on record saying that they were reconsidering the program and might compete the contract to replace Canada's aging CF-18 fighters.
Boeing, on the other hand, continues to lobby Canada to cancel orders for the F-35 and purchased the F/A-18 Super Hornet.
At the same time word that a leading Prime Minister candidate in Italy might trim F-35 purchases if elected to office. Italian Prime Minister candidate Pier Luigi Bersani is the man many expect to win the PM election in Italy. He said on time TV, "I would consider a relaxing, a reduction of the commitment to the F-35 and military spending."
Pentagon leaders continue to support existing U.S. orders for the F-35. U.S. leaders do say that they can afford to make cuts far in the future to keep near and mid-term production volume up. However, other countries don't have that luxury.
"The key point is that this doesn't just impact DoD, but it impacts all the partners," said Mark Gunzinger, of the CSBA, on potential cuts to international orders.
Britain is the largest international customer planning to purchase 138 F-35 fighters. However, British officials have previously suggested that they could reduce that number.

School to offer free meals to all students
FAIRMONT – It turns out, there is such a thing as a free lunch – and breakfast.
Starting today, kids 18 and under are invited to Fairmont Elementary to enjoy a free breakfast and lunch, Mondays through Thursdays until Aug. 1.
The dates coincide with the school's Targeted Services summer school program, but it isn't just for the students taking part in the classes.
Assistant principal Michelle Rosen said the meals are available because the high number of students who qualify for free and reduced lunch pricing hit a threshold, triggering the Summer Food Service Program.
Typically more than 50 percent of elementary students qualify for the low-income meals during the school year. The number is slightly lower at the high school level.
The district will be compensated for the costs of the meals, which fall within the National School Lunch nutrition guidelines.
Youths who come to eat are not required to provide any kind of identification or income proofs.
"It is for anyone under 18," Rosen said. "It is an open site for food."
This is the second year the program has been held at the elementary school, but turnout from the community was lower than expected last year.
"It would be really great if we could have kids from the community come and eat," Rosen said.
The meals will be served to all students participating in summer school as well as community children not in summer school.
Breakfast will be served from 8:30-9:30 a.m. Lunch will be served at noon until 12:30 p.m.
Thursday lunches will feature a meal with an international theme, in keeping with the overall summer school theme.
Rosen said each class will focus on a different country during the weeks of class and prepare a presentation table for an end of summer school Taste of the Nations fair.
"Each group will have information about their country, a little food from there, the flag," said Rosen. "They will share it with the other classes."
The meal for July 11 will feature a Mexican theme, July 18 will have an "All American" theme, and July 25 an Italian theme.

Ren, So I am going through every blog trying to find out what products I want from this collection. I thought maybe I would spend 300 dollars but I figured that was a little extreme. So I wasn't going to get this Quad but now seeing your masterpiece I have changed my mind. Thanks

Oak Ridges—Markham
Paul Calandra Parliamentary Secretary to the Minister of Canadian Heritage
Mr. Speaker, we have heard this all before from the members opposite. We have heard it time and time again.
However, the reality of the matter is that the largest cuts to health and social programs in this country's history came from that government. The largest cuts to the military in this country came from that government. Cuts to health and safety and food inspection came from that government. The worst provincial government in the history of the province of Ontario, which made cuts to all manner of programs, all manner of departments, after having spent so much money that it was spending $1 million more an hour than it was taking in, was that NDP government. A number of those people are still on the front benches of this party. The only unfortunate thing for the Liberals is that the worst premier in the province's history is now the Liberal leader.
Will the Liberals finally confess to all of the damage they have done to this country? Will they look at this budget and see the investments we are making across the board in health and safety and in agriculture, and will they do the right thing, not like what they did with H1N1, which was to make Canadians afraid? Then what we saw was the best response in the world to H1N1, probably, after months and months of listening to hysterical Liberals tell us that the world was coming to an end.
This government gets the job done constantly—

Well, Mr. Speaker, my good friend is certainly full of bravado today. I hear him speak about all these cuts, but I recall that no one died on the watch of any Liberal government in Ontario or in Canada. He has failed to tell Canadians that.

Mr. Speaker, Walkerton was the jurisdiction, of course, of the provincial Conservative government at the time. That is the point I made. He well knows that.
What he is afraid to do is stand and admit that his ideology is now compelling them to make the very same mistakes now that they made then, which they continue to make, refusing to learn from history, refusing to learn from the listeriosis outbreak—

Mr. Speaker, in May 2000, 2,300 people fell ill after E. coli bacteria contaminated the water supply of Walkerton, Ontario. Sweeping Conservative cutbacks to the Ontario Ministry of Environment contributed to the tragedy, the most serious case of water contamination in Canadian history.
For a first example of the impact of the cutbacks, the Conservative government discontinued laboratory testing services for municipalities in 1996 and failed to put in place a regulation making the reporting of contamination mandatory. Had the government done this, hundreds of illnesses would have been prevented.
For a second example, Conservative cuts to the Ministry of the Environment made the ministry less capable of identifying and dealing with problems at Walkerton's water utility. The ministry's inspections program should have detected the improper treatment and monitoring practices and ensured that those practices were corrected.
In January 2002, Premier Mike Harris accepted responsibility for the shortcomings of the Conservative government. He said:
I am truly sorry for the pain and suffering you have experienced.
I, as premier, must ultimately accept responsibility for any shortcomings of the Government of Ontario.
I deeply regret any factors leading to the events of May 2000 that were the responsibility of the Government of Ontario....
History teaches hard lessons, reminding us that prevention is the best line of defence and that worst-case scenarios do happen.
In examining past disasters such as when the Exxon Valdez struck Bligh Reef in Prince William Sound in 1989 and when the Deepwater Horizon exploded in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, causing the worst environmental disaster in U.S. history, we see that key decisions were frequently made without assessing the risks, and sufficient prevention measures were not always taken. When extreme cases did occur, responses were often delayed and opportunities to reduce damage were lost. Most recently, the lesson to prepare for worst-case scenarios was repeated with the double disaster of the east Japan earthquake and tsunami in 2011.
It has been said that those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.
Unfortunately, economic action plan 2012, or the inaction plan for the environment, and Bill C-38, the budget implementation bill, show a complete failure to learn from the past, namely that past cuts to the environment have resulted in dire consequences and that worst-case scenarios do occur.
Instead, the budget implementation bill continues the Conservative government's war on the environment. An astonishing 150 pages of the 400-plus-page budget are focused on streamlining or gutting environmental oversight. The government is absolutely trying to avoid public scrutiny by jamming such major changes into Bill C-38, thereby avoiding specific study of the changes at individual parliamentary committees. Critics have called it an affront to democracy. As a result, on Friday I called upon the government to hive off changes to environmental protection and then send them to the relevant committee for a thorough clause-by-clause study.
Bill C-38 is an attack on our best means of defence, namely environmental protection monitoring and emergency response. The budget severely cuts Environment Canada, reduces our number of scientists, eliminates the National Round Table on the Environment and the Economy, the independent think tank with a direct mandate from Parliament, silences the government's critics and guts environmental legislation.
Environment Canada will lose 200 positions. Last summer, the government announced cuts of 700 positions and a 43% cut to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency. Key research and monitoring initiatives, which sample air pollution, industrial emissions, water quality, waste water et cetera, and partnerships for a greener economy will be cut $7.5 million.
It is important that parliamentarians have the opportunity to do due diligence and to identify all areas of scientific research and partnerships to be cut and to see how each identified cut is projected to impact decision-making and the development of public policy.
Critics of the government are being silenced through changes to the Canada Revenue Agency and attempts to seize control of the university research agenda. Critics are also being silenced through exclusion of concerned groups and citizens from the environmental review process for pipelines.
Bill C-38 effectively dismantles Canada's environmental laws as we know them, by the repeal of the Kyoto Implementation Act and the wholesale repeal of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act and its replacement with a new law that allows the federal government to avoid environmental reviews of many potentially harmful projects and to do less-comprehensive reviews where they still occur. What are the impacts of the repeal of CEAA on regulatory decision-making and the risk of project-specific and cumulative environmental impacts? What is the adequacy of the environmental assessment process in each province and territory and the impacts of industrial projects that cross provincial borders? The weakening of several environmental laws including species at risk in water and near elimination of fish habitat protection in the Fisheries Act puts species from coast to coast to coast at increased risk of habitat loss and population decline. The authority of the federal cabinet to approve new pipeline projects is now above the National Energy Board.
Astoundingly, as the government guts environmental legislation to fast-track development of major projects such as the Northern Gateway Pipeline and to allow oil tankers in northern British Columbia waters, it is cutting $3.8 million from emergency disaster response and consolidating the unit that responds to oil spill emergencies in central Canada, namely Gatineau and Montreal. Key questions regarding the government's preparation for and ability to respond to environmental emergencies should include how many positions in the unit will be slashed; how consolidating the unit in Quebec will impact operations and the predicted response time to travel from the new location to the oil spill; whether the unit will have the financial and technical resources necessary to respond to oil spill emergencies, including those emergencies involving diluted bitumen on the Pacific and Atlantic coasts and along the proposed route of the Northern Gateway Pipeline project; and what action the government has undertaken regarding risk assessment and worst-case scenarios related to the navigation of oil tankers and potential diluted bitumen oil spills.
With independent science squashed, environmental legislation gutted and critics silenced, what stands in the way of environmental disaster? The government must stop its war on the environment, science and indeed anyone who threatens to stand in its way of fast-tracking development. Canada needs robust environmental legislation to protect ecosystems, the health and safety of Canadians, the communities in which we live, the economy and our livelihoods.
I will finish by saying that I spent years of my career undertaking disaster prevention, response and recovery, helping organizations across North America prepare for extreme events resulting from climate change and preparing for pandemics, as well as designing the full disaster preparedness program for the university. The United Nations development program has recently asked me to be on the steering committee for international parliamentarians regarding disaster reduction.
Finally, in the wake of disasters, people often wonder whether there was a way to protect both people and property from such devastating losses. The answer is a resounding "yes, by taking action to prevent future damage before a problem occurs". In order to prevent another tragedy, the government must ensure that Environment Canada's programs and scientists are fully funded to support scientific excellence in prevention, monitoring and emergency response and hive off the environmental protection sections from Bill C-38 and allow public scrutiny of the bill through clause-by-clause study at the appropriate committee.

Joe Daniel Don Valley East, ON
Mr. Speaker, I am proud to inform the House that the Ted Rogers School of Management of Ryerson University in Toronto was recently presented with its Certificate of Accreditation by the Association to Advance Collegiate Schools of Business. The awarding of this accreditation is a tremendous accomplishment for the Ted Rogers School of Management, for Ryerson University and for Canada.
The attainment of this accreditation by the Ted Rogers School of Management is a very prestigious honour that attests to Canada's success in developing outstanding business schools and to the importance of the role that our business schools play in helping to create an economically vibrant and prosperous society from which all Canadians can benefit.
It must be noted that this will help Canada stay competitive in the global market, and that many students from Don Valley East attend Ryerson University.
I invite all members of the House to join me in warmly congratulating the Ted Rogers School of Management, in particular, its dean, Dr. Ken Jones, and the president, Sheldon Levy, on this outstanding accomplishment.

Yvon Godin Acadie—Bathurst, NB
Mr. Speaker, since 1876, people from northern New Brunswick have been taking the train to go on vacation, get to medical appointments and travel to university.
VIA Rail currently uses tracks operated by Canadian National. Now CN is planning to stop operating the section of track between Campbellton and Moncton because it is not profitable. If that happens, people from northern New Brunswick will become more isolated and our region's economic recovery will be hindered.
As an independent crown corporation established in 1977, VIA Rail Canada provides passenger rail services on behalf of the Government of Canada. I sincerely hope that the Government of Canada will not abandon the people of northern New Brunswick and that it will do whatever it takes to maintain rail service, which is essential to our communities.

Parm Gill Brampton—Springdale, ON
Mr. Speaker, I am thrilled to share with the House the incredible celebrations that took place in Toronto this past weekend. The Khalsa Day parade showcased our country's rich diversity, cultural traditions and unity.
What is so special about this annual event is that it brings us all together, regardless of faith, to share in the Sikh religion's values of service to others, harmony and equality. These are principles that our nation holds dear. These are the same principles that Canadians build their families on and that our government defends at home and abroad.
The strength of the Sikh community emanates across Canada. The Khalsa Day parade is a time to celebrate and also a time that reminds us all about enriching Canada through participation, peace and togetherness.
I would like to thank all of the organizers and volunteers who made this celebration a wonderful experience for everyone.

Judy Foote Random—Burin—St. George's, NL
Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize a young woman from St. George's in the riding of Random—Burin—St. George's.
In 2009, while a student at Memorial University of Newfoundland, Laura Chubb was part of a group that travelled to Tanzania in Africa to teach men and women in the HIV and AIDS ravaged Pemba Island.
She was so affected by the suffering she witnessed, she later returned to Africa on her own, this time to Kenya, intent on documenting the suffering she witnessed, but also to show the world the beauty of East Africa and to share a message of hope. While in Kenya, Laura volunteered with Kwacha Africa, helping in some of the worst famine-affected areas of the country.
Although Laura is busy working on a Master's Degree in Kinesiology, she is also preparing for her next trip. In May she will leave for Peru and spend 50 days assisting residents with the new farming techniques and helping build a new community centre.
Laura Chubb sees the world as a place in which we are responsible for the well-being of each other. I ask all members of the House to join me in recognizing this compassionate young women who is doing her part to make a difference.

Dean Del Mastro Peterborough, ON
Mr. Speaker, spring has firmly entrenched itself once again in Peterborough county and this spring, as has been the case for generations, local farm families are gearing up to once again sow the seeds that will lead to the fall harvest.
As a person fortunate to have been born and raised on the farm, I understand the hard work that goes into producing the food we eat and export to the world.
Just this past weekend, one could pretty much watch as the wheat planted last fall stretched from the ground, while farm equipment hastily went to work tilling the fertile soil of Peterborough county, making way for the planting of corn and bean crops that will support everything from livestock to five star restaurants.
As the federal representative, I could not be more proud of our agricultural producers and farm families, regardless of whether they are operating in the supply managed sectors such as poultry and dairy or producers of beef, pork, lamb or grain and oilseeds. All of them are doing their part and they are all contributing to the strength of our country and to our county.
I am proud that our government stands with our farmers. We are opening markets and we are growing forward together. I cannot predict the weather, but I can predict that our agricultural sector will continue to grow in Canada. One more thing I know, nothing runs like a Deere.

Comprehensive DescriptionRead full entry
"The family Portunidae are distinguished from the rest of the round-fronted (cyclometope) crabs by the adaptation of some of their legs for swimming, to which end these limbs are transformed into flattened paddles. The result is often to confer upon the crabs a power of darting at high speed through the water, which would hardly be credited by those who have not watched them. Corresponding to this mobility they have a thin flattened form of body, enabling them to pass sideways through the water, and a lightness gained at the expense of the protective cuticle. These peculiarities give the swimming crabs a strikingly different bodily form from the heavily-built, slow-moving Xanthids, which is moreover accompanied by an equally marked difference of habitat. The Xanthids are usually to be found on the reef or shore exposed to the full force of the breakers. In this position the lightly-built swimming crabs would be dashed to pieces against the rocks. Their proper haunt is a space of quiet waters, such as the lagoon of a coral atoll, and as these places are, in the tropics, generally bottomed with white or greyish coral sand, on which the crabs lie, and in which they often hide their bodies, they frequently mimic it by their pale greyish color, often in a manner as striking as that in which flat-fish resemble the shingly bottom they live on (Borradaile, 1902; pg. 199)."
"The family is highly variable and varietal and is probably undergoing rapid evolution in many directions (Borradaile, 1902; pg. 199)."

Closing/cancellation policies
Thursday, October 15, 2009
Steve Ludwig, vice president of administrative affairs, is one of the university officials charged with managing closings, cancellations and delays.
St. Cloud State rarely closes. Cancellation or delay of classes and events happen occasionally.
St. Cloud State makes every effort to announce closings/cancellations/delays before 6 a.m. for day classes and events, and before 3 p.m. for evening classes and events.
Should there be a major campus emergency, university officials can share information through Star Alert e-mails and text messages. Register for the free Star Alert notification service.
Closings/cancellations/delays are communicated through radio, television, campus-wide e-mail and voice-mail, the stcloudstate.edu Web site and social media sites.
Closings/cancellations/delays are also available by calling 320-308-0121, 320-308-2244, 1-800-369-4260 or 1-877-654-SCSU (7278).
For weather situations, university officials consult with the State Patrol, Minnesota Department of Transportation, National Weather Service, Minnesota Colleges and Universities (MnSCU), a St. Cloud State meteorologist and Metro Transit Commission.
For other situations, Student Health Services, Public Safety and others are consulted, as appropriate.
When classes or events are canceled or delayed, employees are expected to perform their regular duties unless specifically noted. Employees who cannot report to work must use leave time. During closings, only designated "essential employees" report to work.
The university urges students and employees to use good judgment in making decisions about attending class or work. Employees may contact a supervisor to request alternate arrangements.

It's amazing that it has just been over one year since the Santa Cruz City Council approved the Emma McCrary Trail (then the East Multi-Use Trail). I am just blown away by the community support for this project and all the love and care and sweat that have gone into making this beautiful, fun, and sustainable trail. We have had over 3,000 volunteer hours and $30,000 donated towards this project and are getting close to completion.
On Thursday, the beams for the two 35′ bridges were delivered. Big thanks to Tom Wilson and his crew at Geo H. Wilson Mechanical Contracting for assisting us with the unloading and transport of the beams into the park. The beams would not fit under the railroad trestle on Big Creek's truck. Using a crane, flatbed, and backhoe they were able to get the beams delivered as close as possible to the trail, ready for the next step in the process. Next Saturday, April 6th, we will be moving and placing the beams on the abutments. This work will take care, teamwork, and communication to get the job done safely, as well as a whole bunch of volunteers.
If you would like to assist in one of the last steps in completing this trail, please sign up at www.trailworkers.com. We will meet at 9 am at the Pogonip Ranger Station. Coffee from Verve Coffee Roasters and Muffins from Rebecca's at the Tannery. We are looking for a lunch sponsor.

Hip dysplasia in dogs is one of the most common skeletal conditions and certain breeds have a genetic predisposition for it. Because this condition is a result of the hips failing to develop properly with the subsequent development of arthritis, there is not much you can do to fix it once your dog is fully grown. However, there are a number of ways you can make it more comfortable and ease any pain caused by the condition.
Large breeds such as Labrador retrievers, Golden retrievers, German shepherds, Great Danes, and Saint Bernards are the most commonly affected. If you have a large breed dog, you should be on the lookout for clinical signs of the condition, according to PetMD.com. Dogs of either gender may exhibit a decreased level of activity and thee most common signs include a swaying or bunny hopping gait, stiffness or a reluctance to rise from a sitting position and decreased range of motion in the hip joint. Lameness in dogs, including hip dysplasia, requires radiographs (x-rays) for the diagnosis.
With the guidance of your veterinarian, there are several therapeutic approaches to soothe the pain of arthritis at home. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals recommends applying a warm water bottle to the dog's hips for 15 minutes twice a day and massaging the muscles around the hip joints for as long as 10 minutes a day. VCA Animal Hospitals reports hip dysplasia causes arthritis and painful inflammation within the hip joint and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) can often be used very successfully to control pain. VCA states there are several supplements such as glucosamine, chondroitin, omega 3 fatty acids which can also aid a dog with arthritis. Although it is not right for every pet, surgery is also available for some severely affected dogs.
Several additional modifications can be made to help your dog with hip dysplasia. It is important to provide daily exercise in order to keep your dog's muscles strong. Swimming is an excellent exercise as it limits stress on joints and encourages a large range of motion. Providing your dog a soft padded bed with an orthopedic support insert can make resting and rising more comfortable. The use of ramps can help a large dog into the car or onto the bed or couch.

Nice tangy vitamin c. Have recently started taking it so it's not clear how effective it is. Will have a better idea during the winter flu season. One problem is that it comes packaged in a foil bag that you cut to open but there is no locking top to reseal the bag. For storage, I had to pour mine in a jar after opening the bag.
It is ascorbic acid from corn, not true vitamin C! Not good.

Great For Face Mask

I use this about one a week for a homemade face mask treatment and it works great! I suffer from some redness around my nose and it helps to calm it down and even out my skin tone giving it a bit of a glow. I only use about a Tbsp and a bit of aloe gel at a time so this 16Oz is going last for a long time.
Nice product

I mix this in to face serum for a face mask. Makes my skin glow.Only use a tiny bit though or you can burn your skin.

With "The Inbetweeners," MTV has adapted another former British hit — see also, "Skins" — only this time with markedly better results. Comparing "The Inbetweeners" to "Skins" isn't necessarily useful because they're so different conceptually. "The Inbetweeners is more in line with other MTV shows, "Awkward." and "The Hard Times of RJ Berger."
Thankfully former "Arrested Development" writer Brad Copeland is executive producing. That means "The Inbetweeners" is more "Awkward." than "RJ Berger," in that it's actually funny. Centered on four guys who aren't popular but aren't complete outcasts either, there's nothing really original within the concepts, setups or plots, but it mostly works.
Monday's premiere was a good example of the series' structure. Simon (Bubba Lewis) and Will (Joey Pollari) are the central characters within the foursome, and Jay (Zack Pearlman) and Neil (Mark L. Young) are mostly there to provide comic relief.
Simon deals with his unrequited crush on Carly (Alex Frnka), and Will tries to fit in at public school after spending years at private school. Jay adds wisecracks and Neil drops deadpan non sequiturs — "She doesn't love you. You wasted all that paint." — in the background.
Where "The Inbetweeners" excels is in the camaraderie among the four guys that results in playful mocking (juvenile, but mostly funny) and engaging in bad ideas with disastrous results (completely juvenile and totally hilarious).
Chubby-guy Jay's ridiculous lies and raunchy comments — "Renob is boner spelled backward. I'd literally renob her so hard that my penis would be pushed back inside my body," — are fun, and Neil is by far the funniest thing on the show. But the situations these guys get into are the show's most enjoyable aspect. When Simon gets wasted to impress Carly and it results in explosive vomiting all over her kitchen, it's more than amusing because it feels like an authentic teen catastrophe.
"The Inbetweeners" probably will never be as good as "Awkward." because it lacks the heart and doesn't have Ashley Rickards' stellar performance, but it had a strong premiere and there's very little drop-off in quality in the next few episodes.
Feel like teens again:

Note: This post applies to Canadians, in part.
Millions of Americans use their tax refunds as a form of forced savings. You know who you are.
Money experts quibble with this strategy, arguing that when the government withholds extra money from your paycheck, you're giving Uncle Sam a year-long, interest-free loan.
That's true. But our beef with the refund-as-savings method is that many people get that nice chunk o' change—the average is about $2,800, according to the IRS—and don't save it.
It's vacation money, new TV money, iPod upgrade money, "Honey, let's get rid of this old couch" money.
If your tax refund enables you to make purchases with cash instead of credit, that's a smart choice. But we'd rather see you save at least a portion of your refund toward your SaveUP! goal.
If you haven't joined SaveUP!, seize this inspiring moment to list your pledge with more than 100 other DW readers—and take advantage of the split refund option this year.
Use IRS Form 8888 to have your tax refund directly deposited into as many as three different accounts. For example, have the IRS deposit $500 in your checking account, $1,500 in your IRA and $200 in the vacation/TV/iPod fund.
Spend a little—save a lot. That's how the money grows.
Split Your Refund and SaveUP!

KENSINGTON, Md. (RNS) John Linder and Tim Welsh aren't Jewish, and probably don't understand the religious symbolism in the menorahs, mezuzahs and dreidels they create.

That way, my tea budget has a couple extra teabucks to spend
