Human Rights Watch

Anita Neville Winnipeg South Centre, MB
Mr. Speaker, according to a new report issued by the organization Human Rights Watch, since January 2001, 52 Palestinian suicide bombings have killed more than 250 Israeli civilians and injured some 2,000 more.
According to the analysis of Human Rights Watch, these attacks are of such a size and nature that they clearly fall under the category of crimes against humanity, and that those who carry out suicide bombings are not martyrs but war criminals, as are the people who plan such attacks.
International law states that those responsible be held to account. The failure of the political leadership of the Palestinian Authority to exercise authority to prevent or control groups, such as Hamas, the Islamic Jihad and the popular front of the liberation of Palestine, clearly does not meet the standards of international law.
I call upon our government to condemn the armed groups and the complicit political leadership responsible, and demand that they halt the suicide attacks on civilians immediately.

John M. Cummins Delta—South Richmond, BC
Mr. Speaker, internal Coast Guard documents reveal that the Coast Guard station at Vancouver airport was out of service on May 22 of this year. All its search and rescue craft were down. Lives were at risk.
The base provides rescue coverage for crashes on the tidal flats surrounding the airport. Its job is to coordinate the rescue of hundreds of passengers who might be involved in a crash, to take life rafts to the crash site and to pick up survivors.
On May 22 the Coast Guard advised the Rescue Co-ordination Centre and the Vancouver airport that the base was out of service, its vessels inoperable and advised them to find commercial helicopters to ferry life rafts to the site of any possible crash.
Since October 4 there has only been one hovercraft in B.C. That means that the airport is now regularly left unprotected as the remaining hovercraft is out of service for routine inspection and maintenance.
The Vancouver Airport is left with third world emergency rescue coverage. Shame.
Remembrance Day
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Rose-Marie Ur Lambton—Kent—Middlesex, ON
Mr. Speaker, November 11 is a day that gives Canadians time to pause and reflect on Canada's history, as well as what Canada is and stands for in the world today. Above all, it is an occasion to remember the valiant men and women who sacrificed their lives in the interests of Canada.
On Remembrance Day we remember the more than 1.5 million Canadians who fought for Canada in World War I, World War II and the Korean War. We recognize the more than 100,000 soldiers who died and the enormous sacrifices made by their families who were split apart by war and tragedy.
We remember the men and women who have sacrificed their lives in the service of peace and who continue to defend our country and our interests today. At the same time, we recognize the reasons they fought, namely the values, freedoms and way of life that we cherish and are privileged to enjoy today. These include the liberties that we take for granted and our ability to actively participate in political, social and cultural life in Canada.
That is why we stop on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month to remember the cost of freedom and to honour those who have paid the price for it.
San Giuliano di Puglia
Statements By Members
2:05 p.m.
Alan Tonks York South—Weston, ON
Mr. Speaker, there are members of the House who represent towns and villages from across this land who can testify to the special closeness that exists between families and neighbours, especially in rural areas.
It is therefore shockingly clear to the House what the devastating impact would be if those events that occurred a short time ago in San Giuliano di Puglia, Campobasso region of Italy, had occurred in any part of our country.
Today, as a result of the devastating earthquake that rocked the region, there is not one family in the town that has escaped the tragedy of losing a beloved child.
In addition, as winter conditions threaten, nearly 3,100 people are living in tents and local authorities are desperately and courageously trying to deal with emergency conditions.
Throughout this country's history, Canadians have benefited from that special quality of love of family and community that is characteristic of Italians and what they have contributed to Canada. In this spirit of extended family, I would like to express our profound sympathy for the grieving families of San Giuliano di Puglia.

Bob Wood Nipissing, ON
Mr. Speaker, this is the week Canadians proudly wear the scarlet poppy on our lapels. We do so as a reminder of how much we owe our veterans who served this nation in two world wars, in Korea, the Gulf war and in countless peacekeeping operations around the world.
We were reminded of the true nature of their sacrifice not so many months ago with the tragic loss of four of our own in Afghanistan.
Over the years, our veterans have simply asked that we recognize and remember their service. It seems so very little to ask in return for all they have done for our nation. We, who have inherited that future, remain forever grateful to the veterans of Canada.
It remains incumbent upon us to demonstrate that gratitude by keeping their stories alive, not just for this generation but for generations to come. The stories of our nation give our children the glue of our history and our common values that bind our country together.
Let us keep those stories alive, lest our children forget.

Mr. Speaker, it is my honour as the only member of the House of the Islamic faith to announce that today, November 6, is the first day of the holy month of Ramadan.
Ramadan is the ninth month of the Muslim calendar. The month of Ramadan celebrates when the Holy Quran "was sent down from heaven".
The fast of Ramadan lasts the entire month. It is a time when Muslims concentrate on their faith and spend time with family and community.
During Ramadan strict restraints are placed on the daily lives of Muslims. They are not allowed to eat or drink during the daylight hours. At sundown the fast is broken with prayer and a meal called the
After the meal Muslims spend time visiting with family and friends. The fast is resumed the next morning.
Ramadan is a time of focus on family and faith. I hope all Canadians take time to experience and learn more about the Islamic faith.
On behalf of the official opposition, I would like to wish all my Muslim brothers and sisters a very joyous celebration of Ramadan.
Four Nations Cup
Statements By Members

Karen Redman Kitchener Centre, ON
Mr. Speaker, the Maple Leaf will be flying proudly in my constituency as Kitchener hosts the Four Nations Cup. Tonight our nation's finest women hockey players will take to the ice as Canada and the United States face off for the first time since Canada's gold medal win in Salt Lake City.
The city of Kitchener is proud to host the Four Nations Cup that will showcase four of the world's best women's hockey countries: Canada, Finland, Sweden and the U.S.A. Women's hockey has become enormously popular in Canada. The Four Nations Cup will certainly help continue the growth of women's hockey at all levels and ultimately encourage more women to play the game.
Canada is the reigning cup champion after claiming victory at last year's Three Nations Cup in Finland. Canada has won five of the six Nation Cup championships, dating back to the inaugural event in 1996.
Kitchener is looking forward to five days of fantastic hockey. I invite everyone to take advantage of this exciting opportunity to cheer on our nation's favourite team. Go Team Canada.
Monsignor Jean-Marie Fortier

Serge Cardin Sherbrooke, QC
Mr. Speaker, as we speak, the funeral of the former Archbishop of Sherbrooke, Monsignor Jean-Marie Fortier, is taking place in Sherbrooke.
I would like to pay tribute to this great man of the Church, who was totally committed to our community for 28 years. I remember him as a man easy to like and easy to approach, with the best interests of not just his diocese but the entire region at heart. He was a man of faith who retained his simplicity despite the onerous tasks entrusted to him, particularly as the president of the Assemblée des évêques du Québec.
I remember him too as a man of generosity, always ready to listen to anyone, from the humblest to the greatest, wealthy or poor. I will also remember Mgr Fortier presiding over the funeral mass for former Quebec Premier René Lévesque.
On behalf of my colleagues in the Bloc Quebecois, my most sincere condolences to his grieving family. I thank you again, Monsignor, on behalf of the entire population of Sherbrooke.

Mr. Speaker, I am pleased to rise today to congratulate two winners of the 2002 Synergy Awards for Innovation announced by the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada.
Dr. Vincent Tao and Dr. Allan Tarswell were recognized for their important work on three dimensional imaging of laser radar. This tool measures atmospheric pollution and has the potential to revolutionize all forms of urban mapping.
In a partnership between York University and Optech Incorporated, these outstanding scientists showed that collaboration is an important investment in research and development.
Successful partnerships between universities and industry are good for students and good for Canada.
York University in my riding is one of Canada's leader research institutes.
This award demonstrates the importance of innovation in the knowledge-based economy.
I ask members to please join me in congratulating this winning Synergy partnership which draws together those who produce new knowledge and those who know how to apply it.

James Lunney Nanaimo—Alberni, BC
Mr. Speaker, on Thursday, October 31, about 200 people gathered in Bamfield, a beautiful village on the west coast of Vancouver Island, to celebrate an event that created a cable link across the Pacific Ocean.
In 1902, after 20 years of planning, workers connected 6,000 kilometres of undersea cable linking Bamfield and Fanning Island in the South Pacific. This undertaking, known as the "All Red Route", completely linked the British Empire.
On November 2, two days after the final cable was connected, the message went out, encircling the globe and setting in motion advancements in communications that led to today's fibre optics and satellite technology.
Although the cable station was closed in 1959, the site is now home to the Bamfield Marine Science Centre, one of Canada's leading marine science institutions.
The centenary celebrations included a message from Queen Elizabeth, the unveiling of a commemorative stamp and a gathering of former cable operators, cable kids and historical enthusiasts.
Bamfield, leading the way into the 20th century with cable communications and now leading the way into the 21st century in marine science research.
Hay West
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
John Harvard Charleswood—St. James—Assiniboia, MB
Mr. Speaker, we have in Ottawa today two extraordinary gentlemen from Navan, Ontario, Willard and Wyatt McWilliams.
On July 17 last summer the father and son farming duo were discussing the terrible situation of drought stricken farmers in western Canada. After consulting their MP, who happens to be our esteemed House leader, the Hay West initiative was born. Less than four months later, 1,800 farmers in Ontario, Quebec, New Brunswick and Nova Scotia had pledged more than 30,000 tonnes of hay that was shipped to Alberta and Saskatchewan by over 700 rail cars and 160 trucks. Canadian citizens and corporate Canada donated farm equipment, thousands of volunteer hours and over $1 million. In total, about 1,000 farming families in Alberta and Saskatchewan received the much needed hay thanks to Willard and Wyatt McWilliams.
As chair of the western Liberal caucus, I wish to express my appreciation as well as extend my congratulations to the McWilliams for their ability to show Canadians how things are done in Canada when people are in need.
Parliamentary Reform
Statements By Members
2:15 p.m.
Bill Blaikie Winnipeg—Transcona, MB
Mr. Speaker, it is amazing what passes for democratic revolution in the Liberal Party. Members openly vote against their leadership so they can secretly vote against their leadership when it comes to committee chairs.
While any erosion of Liberal authoritarianism is welcome, it does seem strange that it comes in this way on this issue. It would be stranger still if it stopped at this issue.
If the 56 Liberals who value their own privacy so much mustered the courage to vote against the latest security bill, Bill C-17, which according to the privacy commissioner massively violates the privacy of Canadians, that would indeed be an event of historic proportions.
We await the day when what happened yesterday extends to legislative as well as procedural matters. That will be the day that parliamentary history is truly made.
Dairy Industry

Suzanne Tremblay Rimouski-Neigette-Et-La Mitis, QC
Mr. Speaker, Deborah Buszard of McGill University and Bertrand Farmer of Quebec's Dairy Herd Analysis Service, have been awarded the Prix Léo-Derikx. This is an award created to acknowledge innovative models for long term partnerships at the pre-competitive phase of research and development.
This McGill University project, started as a means of helping dairy farmers, has developed into a world-class centre of expertise on which the entire Canadian dairy industry depends when decisions need to be made. At present, it receives and analyzes data on more than 13,000 Canadian dairy herds, comprising some 750,000 cows. This represents some 1.2 million milk production records annually.
Working together, the dairy businesses and the award winning academics have proven that great things can come out of effective partnerships. Their success has enriched university training and research programs in Quebec and in Canada, and given them concrete advantages.
Our sincere congratulations to the award winners.
Giller Prize

Sarmite Bulte Parkdale—High Park, ON
Mr. Speaker, I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate Mr. Austin Clarke who last night won the coveted Giller Prize for fiction with his book
The Polished Hoe.
The Giller Prize is awarded annually to the author of the best Canadian novel or short story collection published in English and is recognized as one of the most prestigious prizes for English language fiction in Canada.
Mr. Clarke is the author of five short story collections and nine novels, most notably The Origin of the Waves which won the Rogers Communication Writers' Trust Fiction Prize in 1998.
Canadian authors from all regions and backgrounds have long been recognized as among the best in the world. Our authors continue to create masterful works which appeal to audiences everywhere. We are extremely proud of the excellent calibre of our writers.
I invite all Canadians to join me in congratulating Mr. Austin Clarke for winning the 2002 Giller Prize.

Keiko was the real-life orca whale star of the hit movie, Free Willy. He was living in very poor conditions in a small tank in Mexico City. Free Willy moviemakers, Warner Brothers, approached us to lead the historic effort to help rescue Keiko.
We formed the Free Willy–Keiko Foundation to spearhead Keiko's rescue. We built a state-of-the-art rescue and rehabilitation facility at the Oregon Coast Aquarium in Newport, Oregon, where Keiko was flown to bring him back to health. Once healthy, Keiko was then flown to a large ocean sea pen in his home waters of Iceland. There, he eventually left his pen and swam in the open Atlantic Ocean, often accompanied by wild whales. Keiko was the first captive orca whale ever returned to his home waters, a historic first. He lived out his life free of the stresses and dangers of life in a concrete tank. We continue to tell Keiko's real-life story and how the retirement, rescue, and possible release or orcas and dolphins can work.
The whale captivity industry has steadfastly blocked all efforts to allow the retirement and potential release of any captive dolphins or whales. They fail to mention their own refusal to help Keiko when he was sick in Mexico, or how 17 captive orcas died during the time Keiko was rehabbed and released. Other captive orcas and dolphins may be candidates for rehab and release. We're keeping Keiko's legacy alive to help guide future efforts.
David Phillips, May 2016
Whales and dolphins in captivity are suffering and there is growing worldwide recognition that they should no longer be held captive in concrete tanks performing circus tricks for ticket buyers.
We at Earth Island Institute's International Marine Mammal Project led the project for the rescue, rehabilitation and release of Keiko, the orca whale made famous by the movie Free Willy. We know it can be done safely and effectively. There is not a single captive orca or dolphin that would not immediately benefit by being transferred to a seaside sanctuary.
Jean-Michel Cousteau, March 21, 2016
SeaWorld's CEO Joel Manby characterization of the Keiko program as a failure misses the point. Keiko lived in the wild in a very large bay pen for the latter years of his life, interacted with orca and other wild animals in the open ocean, and gained health and stamina from being able to swim long distances. While he did not re-connect with wild orca on any permanent basis, he interacted with his own kind in his natural birth environment in ways that an artificial environment found in captivity could never provide.

Welcome Gary
Your absolutely spot on regarding V&M.
As for NEW:
I've listened to the deluxe version twice now. Everyone make sure you get the deluxe. The two bonus tracks should have been on the album proper. I know it's a money grab, but I sure wish they would cut it out.
The album itself is astonishing. I predict it will land on everyone's top five. Too early to tell exactly where it lands for me, but it's top three on the way to #1.
Not to be politically incorrect on a Macca fansite, but this album is pure meat: NO FILLER ADDED

Rays place Scott on DL, set opening day rosterAP , Associated Press
Mar. 31, 2013 7:31 PM ET
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — The Tampa Bay Rays placed designated hitter Luke Scott on the 15-day disabled list with a strained right calf and designated catchers Stephen Vogt and Robinson Chirinos for assignment in moves that helped the team set the opening day roster.
The club also announced Sunday that it purchased the contracts of right-handed reliever Jamey Wright and first baseman Shelley Duncan, who signed minor league deals this winter.
Meanwhile, catcher Craig Albernaz was reassigned to the minors. The club purchased the contract of right-hander Juan Carlos Oviedo, who then was placed on the 60-day disabled list due to Tommy John surgery.
Scott was placed on the DL, retroactive to March 24. Vogt and Chirinos were designated for assignment to clear spots on the 40-man roster for Wright and Duncan.

Speaking at the Masdar Institute in Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates today, Secretary Clinton said:
"…We believe that the work that is being done here at Masdar has the potential to solve some of the most urgent challenges facing our planet. How do we develop sustainable energy sources that can power our cities without contributing to climate change? How do we create technologies that are scalable and both use less power and are widely affordable? How do we supply water for drinking and farming in places where fresh water sources are decreasing? How do we achieve economic growth without relying so heavily on fossil fuels where they're drilling for them, selling them, buying them, or burning them?
"Now, these challenges are pressing across the world, but they are especially significant here in the Gulf. We know that oil supplies are shrinking, water tables are declining. The old strategies for growth and prosperity will no longer work. For too many people in too many places, the status quo today is unsustainable. And the UAE is leading our work and the path we must take into the future. It is putting into practice what it means to be sustainable and laying the groundwork for economic, environmental, and social progress.
"What I admire about the steps that the UAE has taken is that it's not only this institute, which is very impressive just to be part of and to view, but it's also working while continuing your role as a leading oil producer, investing in renewable energy sources like wind and solar, and moving toward a knowledge-based economy by investing in education, as I saw this morning at Zayed University. UAE is positioning itself to be a center for innovation and entrepreneurship for years to come.
"…This is the first truly international organization to be headquartered in the Middle East, and we have high hopes that it will provide a link between developed and developing countries in sustainable energy production. And we want it to be a truly global organization open to representative offices here in the UAE, to every country willing to abide by its principles and commit to its goals to translate good intentions into concrete results.
"I am very pleased that the United States and the UAE have deepened our partnership on energy in recent months. Masdar and the U.S. Department of Energy signed a memorandum of understanding last year to promote joint research and development of clean energy technologies. Our two countries along with nearly two dozen others held our first ever high-level ministerial meeting on clean energy last June in Washington, and Abu Dhabi will host the second meeting here in April. And in a week, U.S. public and private sector representatives will join people around the world here in Abu Dhabi at the World Future Energy Summit.
"This work is in the interest of not only global progress, but also our own domestic interests as well, because clean energy will be a driver for good jobs. I know that there are many talented people here in the UAE, and giving scientists and engineers and technicians the opportunity to participate in the clean energy revolution will bring good jobs to UAE, more income, and a greater ability to create and spin off businesses.
"UAE is so well positioned to compete in the 21st century because of your commitment to clean, renewable energy. We are fully committed to supporting your work and we will do everything we can, through our academic institutions like MIT, through our government, like the Department of Energy and the State Department, and through our private sector to bring more jobs and bring more innovative entrepreneurial spirit here to the UAE. There is so much we can do together.
"And I would add that part of the reason for my trip is not only to meet with leaders, as I've had the chance to do, but also to talk with the citizens of this country, as I did earlier at the town hall, but also to highlight the very creative efforts that are being undertaken here in Abu Dhabi. I want my country to know how advanced you are in pursuing clean, renewable energy. I want the world to know that the United States is partnering with you, because we are betting on Abu Dhabi and the UAE. We are betting that this incredible investment represented by Masdar is going to pay off. And when it pays off, it will not only mean a better life for the people of this country and this region. It will have ripple effects throughout the world.
"One of our challenges is how do we raise the standard of living in poor countries. We cannot do it by recreating the past. We have to do it by leapfrogging into the future. And the technologies that you will pioneer here will enable a poor African or Asian or Latin American country to have a better future as well."
You can read the complete transcript here. Additional information about the Secretary's travel to the United Arab Emirates, Oman, and Qatar is available here.

I like this part of what Secretary Clinton Said.
"And the UAE is leading our work and the path we must take into the future. It is putting into practice what it means to be sustainable and laying the groundwork for economic, environmental, and social progress".
I like the thought of our people working together to improve the future of many.:)

The problem is not my business, but in fact the president of the former location of the current Iranian would be difficult, to be replaced or the story should help, but now not expected to help the situation, you think that?

What is the practical dominance of the president is weak, but he is still using the means that he can commit to reforms, and for that unwelcome in any group, is thought to be targeted.

In order to completely eradicate Somali pirates rather than the military operations inside Somalia of military forces or with specific people love them and developed countries will be supported from outside by those who are internally I think we should bring unity.

You must also have been in the promotion of press think. An opportunity to regain the pride I think. (Black Hawk Down the movie we thought it would be erased from the memory is forever, made films, rather than a fun time to consider the larger issue.)
Somalia is a normal form of the state would say, a coup d'etat of raising national system of fixing the democratic and capitalist countries in the form of converting the reforms constituted should want to talk, UN's aid even delivered correctly, not anarchy continues in the country coup think the word is not applied.
This situation continued in Somalia does define that? Normal stimuli from the outside to make the country a definition does not?
While working to build a just, pathetic being held - to negotiate without any money - how to help the crew was thinking the same thing about the novel.

One step at time
To the Journal editor:
In our pursuit of happier, healthier and more productive lives, listed below are benefits of physical activity based on research in physical education, education, psychology and sociology.
Promoting physical development and health, including developing cardiovascular fitness, developing energy, developing resistance to disease, developing a healthy weight and developing muscular endurance, flexibility and strength.
Promoting psychological development and health, including providing enjoyment and reducing anxiety and stress.
Promoting social development and health, including not developing the antisocial behaviors of physical, psychological, social or verbal aggression and developing the prosocial behaviors of communicating, competing, cooperating, helping, leading, problem solving and following others and rules.
Promoting intellectual development and health is possible because there is a positive relationship between the physical, the psychological and the social with the intellectual.
Based on a person's age, goals, health and life's conditions, to achieve benefits children and adolescents should have physical education in school and adults should have individual and group physical activities with at least moderate-intensity for at least 150 minutes per week. More benefits occur with longer duration, greater frequency and high intensity.
Accessible beneficial individual physical activities including walking, bicycling, hiking, running and skiing.
For search-based benefits and other concepts, and for a variety of individual activities for a variety of purposes, read American College of Sports Medicine Complete guide to Fitness and Health (2011). For illustrative research, read Research Quarterly for Exercise and Sport.
Now is the time for all of us to pursue happier, healthier, and more productive lives through appropriate physical activity.
Research demonstrates benefits, but research does not always demonstrate statistically significant benefits. Benefits for individuals will vary.
The major assumption is knowledge is acquired by scientific methodological justice that objectively uses valid and reliable data, not by individual methodological justices that subjectively use persona elements, including belief.

This regal blue 1948 Lincoln Continental two-door hardtop coupe is not a restoration project. It's been kept in pristine shape all these years, and was recently sold to car collector Lonnie Shelton (no, not the ex-NBA player). But it's not just any 1948 Lincoln.
"The first time I saw the car," Shelton said, "I fell in love with it. There are several 1948 Lincoln Continentals out there, but none like this one." That's because this one was owned by baseball Hall of Famer Babe Ruth before his death on August 16, 1948.
Earlier that year, Ford Motor Co. presented Ruth with a new Lincoln Continental as a measure of its appreciation for his tireless devotion to Little Leaguers and baseball. Before he died of cancer, Ruth spent many of his final days traveling across the country in this Lincoln, giving speeches and hitting lessons to kids.
The car is in perfect shape, with original interior and car color — "I call it Yankee blue," Shelton said. The speedometer reaches 110 miles per hour. The radio works and takes about 15 minutes to warm up the glass tubes used in that era. The doors and windows work by hydraulics. The steering wheel is huge by today's standards. The license plates are black and feature the orange words: THE BABE.
"To know somebody had enough foresight since 1948 to keep that car in that kind of shape is amazing," Shelton said. "I respect that. And I can tell you that car will be maintained and kept in better shape than it ever has. I love old cars."
Shelton said he plans to use the car to help raise money for charities.

Art Modell (spit) is a duplicitous scum who doesn't deserve to live. And that's the nicest thing I can say about him.
I won't pretend to compare what he did to The Holocaust, but no one should forget what he really did, and what his motivation was. I will tell the story to anyone at anytime for the rest of my life. The old fans know. The young fans need to learn.
If Trivisonno let him off the hook, I lost the infinitesmal amount of respect that I had for him.
Still in line to piss on his grave...

10 Reasons NOT to Run an Ultramarathon
Moldy Camelbaks, mud-stained shoes and the endless questions about why someone would ever choose to run for hours on end
Photo by Flickr user NickP // Creative Commons
1. It's dirty.
You have to use the bathroom in the trails or, if you're unfortunate enough to do an ultra in the street, on the side of the road. Your Camelbak will never be clean, no matter what kind of bleach or organic cleaning product you use. You will eat with your hands. If it's raining, your calves and butt will look exactly like the trail. Whatever color your shoes are now, forget it, because they'll soon be brown.
2. Your feet will look like aliens.
No pedicure can save them. They will be calloused and blistered and your skin will never grow back the same way again. Your feet will swell and shrink. You will lose your toenails. First the pinky, and then, depending on the length of your race, every single one.
3. It's expensive.
You'll have to find a way to cover your grocery bill, which grows every time you move up to a new training bracket. You'll have to buy a new wardrobe once your clothes stop fitting. You'll need to buy rain gear and snow gear and first-aid kits, and then you have to pay for the race. You have to buy trail shoes. Then you have to buy new shoes after yours wear out.
4. You have to travel.
Where do you live? There's a better ultramarathon two hours away. If you don't live near the mountains or the hills, there's no option except in the next time zone. The race goes from the fifth to the sixth and then you have to drive and acclimate and meet new people. You have to take pictures. Sometimes you'll have to learn a new language. Then you have to run in a new language. Impossible.
5. Planning your social and running calendar becomes a science project.
It's easier to get new friends who train, or just stop having friends.

Quincy tests system to locate source of gunfire
QUINCY, Wash. - Quincy police say they're the first in the Northwest to test a system that detects and locates gunshots.
The Wenatchee World reports the city council approved a one-year $130,000 contract to use the ShotSpotter Flex system for a year. Officials are concerned about gang violence and hope it improves police response.
The system uses sensors to pick up the sound of a gunshot. Computers triangulate the location within a minute and give police a location within 15 feet of where a shot was fired.

Grinnell's Service Learning and Civic Engagement Program is an outgrowth of the College's rich history of social responsibility, and operates under the assumption that civic engagement not only addresses the common good, but is a form of interdisciplinary, transformational learning. Activities and classes supported by this program allow you to become an active participant in your education while making a difference in the community.
In addition to enhancing your overall sense of wellbeing and civic purpose, service learning and civic engagement deepen your understanding of what you're learning in the classroom and teach related, transferrable professional skills. These activities also allow you to appreciate the interdisciplinary nature of real world problem solving, and to understand the civic and professional value of a liberal arts education.
The College collaborates with more than 50 different non-profit, direct service community partners to support both curricular and co-curricular service opportunities. In the co-curricular realm students may volunteer in the community, participate in the Community Service Work-Study Program or volunteer with the AmeriCorps ICAP education award program. Co-curricular service at Grinnell is unique in that most projects are student initiated, led and organized.
Throughout the curriculum, Grinnell's Service Learning and Civic Engagement program helps faculty and students incorporate civic engagement components into a wide variety of courses, strengthening thelinks between classroom learning and some of the most pressing issues facing individuals, communities, and countries today. These courses allow you to apply what you're learning in class through some form of public work, such as issue advocacy, social or policy action, or community service projects. Through collaborative partnerships with local non-profit partners, civic engagement classes will deepen your appreciation of course content and use interdisciplinary methods to address real world problems and issues. These curricular opportunities also provide avenues for reflection, giving you time to intentionally integrate your values, academic interests, and emerging professional skills with your personal, civic, and professional goals.
Recent examples of how civic engagement has informed course content at Grinnell: in a class about policy and immigration, inviting a local immigrants' advocate to speak about the issue of domestic abuse within the immigrant population; in a secondary education class, evaluating a computer program used by a local school to place a diverse group of children in the right classes; in a politics of food course, engaging with local farmers on the challenges of sustainable agriculture.
Compensation is available for service work you're already interested in doing — with local non-profit organizations you'll love!
Through the Grinnell College Community Service Work-Study and Iowa Campus Compact AmeriCorps (ICAP) programs, you can be compensated for service work with a local non-profit organization. Community service work-study students and AmeriCorps ICAP members not only assist with the day-to-day activities of their partner organizations, but also help develop and lead sustainable service or social justice projects related to the organization's philosophy and scope of practice.
The goal of our work-study and AmeriCorps programs is to provide you with opportunities to work collaboratively with community partners and peers to improve the quality of life for people in the larger Grinnell community. These partnerships will help you develop the collaborative leadership skills needed to become a socially responsible and responsive member of society. You'll not only make a direct difference to the community, but you'll also serve as a link between our partner organizations and the Grinnell campus by raising awareness of community needs and encouraging campus engagement now and well into the future. At Grinnell, we're educating the next generation of social justice leaders.

Rated 5 out of 5�by JRsgrma Our grandson LOVED it! This was purchased for our 5-year old grandson. My husband is an avid golfer and he wants to introduce our grandson to the sport that he loves so much. This is our grandson's FIRST golf club and he LOVED it! 5-year old's have the attention span of a flea yet he "practiced" his putting with this club for about 30 minutes - maybe more. And, he wouldn't let Grandpa take it to "show him how to do it". He wanted to show Grandpa how to do it. Perfect size for him. June 4, 2014

Rated 4 out of 5�by Tommy Very Good Buy I have an above average height 3 year old that I brought this putter for. He is able to carry it around and control it in the putting greens with ease. The putter is also durable so unless he hits another huge growth spurt I can easily see this being his putter for a long time April 16, 2014
Rated 5 out of 5�by thoms9p Great Price We had been looking for a putter for our grandson. Our visit to the store was for something else and we were thrilled to find the right putter at a terrific price. November 13, 2013

well, i'm hooked, have been for years...cheese or no !
this year, so far, i'm very heavily leaning towards taylor hicks (?), the grey haired 29 yr old...if joe cocker and michael mcdonald had a test tube baby with..i don't know, janis ian...it'd be him...he does get into the music!
so far, mandisa is a close second, for me.
both have astounding voices and great personalities !
that little geeky kid should've got the boot last week, instead of the young black kid...man, he could sing...was just waiting for him to really get into it...coulda easily been a al green type, just needed to loosen up.
which raises a thought...does anyone else notice that when the booted-off contestant sings, they always seem much more passionate than the night before, when they were wooden and sucked...or is it just me ?

One of a Kind Toronto Spring show opened today at Exhibition Place and will run for five days until Sunday March 31.
OOAK has been running for many years and is one of the largest shows of handmade objects, art and crafts in Toronto. It's huge. You likely know all about it, so I won't go into too much detail.
A couple of interesting new things that are worth looking out for when you visit:
3D Printing Shop
The most delightful thing I stumbled upon at the Spring OOAK was Hot Pop Factory, a 3D printing shop with a very stylish jewellery collection. They also make custom 3D portraits, scanning your head on-site and producing a miniature custom bust within a few days. There's a 3D printer operating in their booth and it's great to watch it in action.
I love the new directions that are opening up to artists and makers and it's great to see 3D printing outfits in high-profile craft shows such as OOAK. May there be more art enabled by new technologies everywhere and soon!
Etsy section
For the first time this year, there is an Etsy-branded section, with a sampling of about 40 artisans from the thousands who have online shops at the largest virtual marketplace for handmade goods. Etsy is currently trying to raise its profile in Canada and their section at OOAK is part of this effort.
As with many things that sell well online, the crafts on Etsy tend towards the lightweight and inexpensive, and most artists in this section are first-time OOAK exhibitors. Both of which factors probably contribute to this section being set up as tightly and compactly packed as it is.
There are many Toronto Etsy Street Team members in both the Etsy and the Rising Stars sections, including Ele Willoughby (minouette) – featured recently on this blog – whose science and nature-themed prints are gorgeous in real life.

Internet changing Inland Empire retail market
Feb 04, 2013 (Inland Valley Daily Bulletin - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- The growing popularity of buying products through the Internet and from bargain retailers is fueling big changes in the Inland Empire's retail real estate market, experts say.
With more people shopping and receiving media content on tablets and smartphones, the number of large brick- and-mortar stores is shrinking.
The vacancy rate at Inland Empire shopping centers and strip malls improved by a percentage point or two over the past year. But the sharp overall rise from 5 percent at the height of the market in 2007 to today's vacancy rate of about 9 percent is a direct result of technological advances and ramped-up competition from discounters like Costco and Walmart, according to experts.
Challenges facing this sector of the real estate market were among the highlights in area developer Randall Lewis' recent annual keynote speech in Rancho Cucamonga to the regional real estate community.
Lewis, vice president of the Lewis Operating Group of Companies, cited the high number of "for sale" and "for lease" signs on shopping center properties in the region. He projects "continued turmoil" as Internet sales grab more brick-and-mortar shopping dollars.
"Retailing is going through changes and so the Internet is taking a larger share, and it's expected that will continue," he said. "We're definitely seeing bookstores being challenged by companies like Amazon, and I think people are seeing electronics as a category that's been challenged.
We can look at companies that have gone out of the electronics business." E-commerce's market share has grown to about 10 percent, a huge increase from a decade ago but still overshadowed by other economic factors, according to Tarique Hossain, an associate professor of marketing and international business at Cal Poly Pomona.
"That's certainly a contributor, but not anywhere near replacing the brick and mortar," Hossain said. "These retail stores expanded when the economy was strong and didn't predict the recession or how long the recession would last. Throw the e-commerce in the mix, and you have the recipe for a perfect storm." The storm is hitting nationwide, he said, although he expects the effects to be different for different regions.
"You have much higher unemployment in San Bernardino (County) than in Orange County, for example," he said.
A weaker economy presents a challenge for retailers, but he said it also probably lessens the Internet's role.
"I would conjecture that e-commerce is probably correlated with high income and high education," he said. "Who's going to be more savvy about checking things quickly and be comfortable placing an order "If I were to guess, I would say Orange County is going to have more e-commerce than San Bernardino County." Lewis and Brad Umansky, a real estate broker who owns Ontario-based Progressive Real Estate Partners, said one way to fight the trend is to offer more service-oriented business, such as massage businesses, fitness centers and medical services.
Businesses like Massage Envy, they said, are now taking over spaces once occupied by Blockbuster or Hollywood Video.
"We've seen fitness clubs take over locations that were previously occupied by grocery stores," Umansky said.
Lewis agreed.
Stores that have to compete with bargain retailers face a lot of pressure, he said.
Shopping centers and strip malls, he said, will put more emphasis on services -- "could be nails or haircuts or legal services." And there will be a greater need "to have extraordinary customer service." Lewis said the new service-oriented retailers will have to provide something that can seldom be found elsewhere.
"People should come there because they're treated right," he said. "And if there's a problem, they're going to fix it quickly or have a good return policy. It's going to put even more pressure on people to be great at service." A related strategy would be to concentrate on higher-end or more-complicated products that can't be replicated online, said Hossain.
"Stores aren't really adjusting to the reality, in my opinion," he said. "On some products, you won't win, so let Amazon have them. Retailers need to concentrate and adjust." Lewis said shopping centers are also tweaking their retail environments with a mix of high-end and low-end stores and medical businesses.
Grocery stores are also being challenged by competitors like Walmart, Target and Costco, which now offer produce and other foods.
"You've got new competitors in the high end, like Gelsons and Bristol Farms, and new and growing competitors at the low end like Costco, Target and Winco," Lewis said.
Jeff Bloom, Rancho Cucamonga's deputy city manager for economic and community development, said fewer and fewer retailers seem to want larger spaces because of the recent market changes.
An exception, Bloom said, has been the Hobby Lobby arts and crafts store at the Terra Vista Town Center at Haven Avenue and Foothill Boulevard.
"Fewer retailers want a large space," he said. "Therefore you try to encourage owners and developers to consider dividing them down to smaller spaces." Bloom said local planners in recent years have focused on increasing more mixed- use development.

I have used these for three years now and find them good quality and value.
Good price
Posted by Reviewer2760234 on Mar 01, 2011
I used to take Nordic Naturals, Omega-3 Purified Fish Oil, 1000 mg, 180 Lemon Flavored Soft Gels, which costs $35.66 each. The lemon flavore was nice, but I decided to try another one. Natural Factors, RxOmega-3 Factors, EPA 400 mg/DHA 200 mg, 240 Softgels containes more softgels and cheaper. The flavor is acceptable. No problem for me. I think I will continue to have this.
Does the job
Posted by Reviewer2940089 on Jul 22, 2011
This is a decent formulation of fish oil that supplies goodly amounts of EPA and DHA. The product would be better if the manufacturer switched to a non-gelatin capsule.
Great oil, shame about the gel caps
Posted by Reviewer3099908 on Jul 26, 2009
I suffer from migraine associated vertigo and these gel caps triggered it all off. Apparently they are manufactured with MSG. Whatever it is, I emptied out the oil minus the gel cap and it was fine. It's a very good ratio of DHA:EPA.
Review of RxOmega-3 Factors
Posted by Reviewer1191770 on Mar 04, 2009
Impossible for me to review. I have to take Consumer Labs at their word that the product is what it says it is and does what it says it does. I have little confidence in testimonials, covering a short time span. Better would be a double-blind study with several thousand subjects, verifying improvement in serum lipids compared with a placebo group at least three-month intervals, until stable.
Cannot see the effect

Have tried contionusly for 8 days, can't see the effect yet.

Pete-zza, thanks for the recommendation, but can you recommend a cold rise recipe? I can use the expanded dough calculating tool and do the conversion myself.
use the 17-17.5 ounces of dough that c0mpl3x suggested in Reply 273
Over position - Does the lowest oven position make the bottom of the pizza cook faster then the toppings? and a higher position cooking the toppings faster then the bottom crust?
TMTM,In my electric oven, yes. I often move a pizza that has baked on the lowest oven rack position to the upper oven rack position to get more top crust/cheese browning.Peter
In almost all recipes I have seen the yeast is added to warm water and salt and/or sugar and let it foam and after that it is added to the flour and other ingredients but in your recipe you say to mix all but the yeast and when it is already a dough then (not before) you add the yeast to the dough, it is very different from the other recipes, when you add the yeast to the dough can it still ferment the dough and will it still rise?
I'd love to hear your thoughts on pizza trays, disks, and other carriers.
