The Oscars!
Fashion's (and celebrities') big night out!
It didn't disappoint.
The big trends were RED and WHITE.
Also. Good thing H and I couldn't collaborate on this post in person because there could have been a knock down drag out fight over some of these dresses (kidding. kind of.)
C: I love this so much it makes my heart beat faster. What an amazing choice. The fabric is to die.
H: This falls under the "just because it's vintage doesn't mean you should wear it to the Oscar's" category. I hate how she (her team) styled this. The jewelry, the bag, and the dress just don't go together!
C: Natalie Portman slipped from being fashion star last year during the awards shows to being a total mess. This dress was obviously originally purchased at Windsor, sold at a second hand store, and passed off as vintage. And her hair!! Sad story.
H: Her hair is approx 1 million times better this award show (PROPS). LOVE the dress but if we're being picky there is a brooch on the dress that needs to go and not a fan of the pink clutch.
C: Cue the Hallelujah chorus! This is the only dress I have liked of hers this award's season and she totally redeemed her other luke-warm choices. The color, fabric, fit are all perfection. Although I agree about the bag (is it Hello Kitty brand?) it's not enough to taint the otherwise fabulosity that is Michelle Williams.
H: One of my favorite looks of the night!! Dear G, you make me want to wear a cape on a daily basis. sincerly, H.
C: REALLY? I thought she looked like the Pope! And what's with the helmut-head hair (try to say that 10 times fast)?
H: Feel free to disagree but I loved Rooney in this number. So soft and pretty to counter those severe bangs/hair/makeup.
C: I loved it as well. She looks like a little 20's dreamboat.
C: Um. I loved it. But okay, okay, not for the Oscars. Maybe a large, million dollar/carat earring would have spruced up the look?
H: I don't know who this chick is but she rocks this dress. GORGE.
C: Milla looks AmAaaaaaZing. The look is perfectly accessorized and her hair and makeup are icing on this tall glass of water.
H: There will be many who disagree...but I hated this! This is the most flattering picture of this dress I've seen. It seriously looked like she borrowed it from her plus size sister. And her hair? Don't get me started on the synthetic pony tail glued to the back of her scalp. Sorry Sandra!
C: Medusa's tentacles are wrapped around her waist and people are loving it? I'm confused.
H: Angelina. You little sex kitten you. Loved this look. But the leg? Really? I can only imagine how long she practiced that pose in the mirror.
C: I literally saw an article entitled "The break out star of the Oscars--Angelina's right leg." So basically I hate it now. But to be fair, I think she looks pretty and I like that she wore black velvet!
H: Go Tina! Love this look for her.
C: So proud of Tina and her grow-up choice (finally).
H: Hands down the best I've ever seen her. She looks totes amaze-balls! Her hair, jewelry...the dress- dare I say perfection?
C: I agree!! I've never thought of Kristin Wiig as any sort of fashion icon ("I invented the term fashion icon. I was the original fashion icon." Am I the only SNL Penelope fan?) but she really hit it out of the park with this number.
H: Stacey does it again. The cinnamon roll swirl is a little large for my taste but she looks like an Oscar trophy...winning!
C: Her ONLY saving grace in this dress is that she is 7 feet tall. Okay, fine, and that she is on the arm of GC. This was my least favorite of her award's season choices. You can't just throw on a gold trash bag and call it good just because your face is pretty. I'm sure that's a law somewhere.
H: The dress is lovely. Her bangs need a trim so badly I can't.
C: I was surprised by how much I like this. Who knew that the socially awkward and hard-to-watch dork from the Office could clean up so nice? I agree about the bangs though. And did she curl them under with a 1-inch iron?
H: Why don't I own this dress? If only to do my dishes in- Friends style (anyone?). My favorite color of the night. Best dress nominee!
C: Marrrriaaa (picture me singing this in a high pitched falsetto voice). She is so gorgeous and this dress is so perfect. To quote Manny from Modern Family (a lot of pop culture references here today, folks) "She is a dream wrapped in a wish poured into chiffon."
Now it's your turn!
Who was your WORST?
Who was your BEST?

Hello All,
Following some confusion, I thought it might be useful to pass on some new thoughts on events and expenses so that new folks understand how things have been done in the past. Should people feel that these ought to be changed, sure, why not? However, we should discuss any changes and alterations as a collective.
Some points:
* Forest has, as long as I've been involved, been able to cover some expenses. Here's the rules / precedents:
- If we invite you, we cover your costs. This allows us to get great performers from all over the place. Also, it is pretty shit to beg a band to play for free and then not pay the taxi.
- If we are asked to cover expenses we can easily commit 50 quid if WE WANT TO SEE THEM PLAY. This is the call of the Events Team and Collective Members wishing to weigh in.
- We can also add to that 50 quid (or earn part of it) by splitting corkage. This is very easy. You put the corkage in a separate pot. At the end of the night 50% goes to the band. 50% goes in the till. IF we promised 50 quid and we only earned 30 from corkage than 20 will come from the till. Get receipts (petrol, train, or any kind of scrawled note saying 'I got 20 quid from Forest' (this is the least good.) If you are uncertain about paying it -- you can tell them to email firstname.lastname@example.com with an invoice and Martin will pay it in due course.
- This is not a KM / NM decision though their input is invaluable. Normally, it is an events decision. If events people can't make the gig they must remind performers it is their responsibility to ensure that corkage is counted separately on the evening and to expect to invoice for any difference if there was a guarantee minimum amount.
<NB: In the past, only a handful of performers would want corkage or fees covered. Those were performers coming from some distance. Like I said: we have two options: 1) guarantee a minimum fee and pay that out of corkage. 2) simply split corkage. Both work because it means the bands actually care about people paying their corkage. Win.>
* We are an arts and education space and our self-proclaimed role (in Edinburgh) is to support artists. Now, most places in the world support artists by giving them space and a chance to earn some cash. Some charge for a hire, some don't. All allow you to charge on the door or pass a hat. We don't. Which could lead a lot of people to wonder, rightly, how are we supporting artists rather than exploiting them in order to sell coffee. Hell, we barely even bother to properly promote most gigs. There are a lot of reasons for that: We're all volunteers, we don't sell booze and so staying open at night is not really cost-effective, we let ANYONE play sound unheard, we provide resources for up and coming artists. However, if we want anyone good or serious to play we do need to help make their lives easier. That means helping with taxis so stand up bass can come and it means working with artists to ensure they are not losing money by playing with us. Covering travel expenses and explaining and ensuring the whole corkage thing is very important. As is making sure the band gets food and coffee and any booze if we happen to have any. We support them by giving them a free place to play, to an audience who didn't have to pay, to an audience who may be surprised at the appearance of an amazing band so much so that they'll dance, buy a cd or a badge. The atmosphere and tone we create is essential. We operate out of generosity and compassion and understanding and respect. In as much as possible, as much as reasonable, we ought to strive to say yes. We have a lot of rules so it is understandable that some performers will be confused or upset.
It is worth noting that many venues are quite adversarial. No discounts on drinks, no food, no help, no welcome, no poster up. Therefore, it is not very hard to be excellent within our own restrictions. Say yes as much as possible or figure out how to. Make sure the performer is welcomed. If you think they are awesome, tell people they are awesome. Split the corkage when you can or if they ask. Be nice even if they are confused or peevish.
* In the future it would be great to get Alistair to record live gigs. Such a recording would be a real gift to some performers and would be seen as supportive of artists
That's my thoughts from the dusty bin of history. x

Where was Thoreau in 1850?
To find out, look on line 33 of this page from the 1850 census taken in Concord, Massachusetts. It reveals that Henry David Thoreau—the author of Walden—was 33 years old and living at home with his parents. The 1850 census was the first one that listed individuals instead of families and that included questions about place of birth, age, and occupation.

Slaying victim's family visits site
July 23, 2006
CNJ staff photo: Sharna Johnson
David and Maria Beardmore view a cross they placed Thursday to mark the location where the body of their daughter, Laura McNaughton, was found by hunters in December.
On the edge of a desolate, wind-whipped field stands a small homemade cross wrapped in a pink feather boa. It was placed by a mother and father mourning their daughter.
Thursday, for the first time, David and Maria Beardmore visited the ditch where the battered body of their daughter, Laura McNaughton, was found more than seven months ago.
"Pink was her favorite. She was a girl-girl," Maria Beardmore said, explaining her choice of the fuzzy pink boa embracing the cross.
Inscribed on the cross are the words, "We love you, Laura." Strands of letter beads wrap around it, bearing messages that include "you are my shining star," and "we love you," strung lovingly by McNaughton's three sisters.
A yellow gossamer butterfly is affixed to the fence post behind the cross.
The cross marks the spot on a lonely stretch of County Road C, about two miles south of the Pleasant Hill Fire Department, where a group of quail hunters found McNaughton's nude body Dec. 10 in the dry winter brush.
"It's so beautiful here — but sad," Maria Beardmore said as she gazed across the plains, the wind whipping her hair. Her eyes wandered to the ditch mere feet from the small rise where the cross was placed.
It took seven months, she said, before she was ready to see the place where her daughter's body had lain in the brush.
They came to Clovis from San Diego to visit their granddaughters and to attend a status hearing in the death-penalty murder case against James Smith.
Smith, 37, is accused of killing McNaughton, 30.
He was arrested Dec. 20 and faces the death penalty if convicted.
In another first, the Beardmores said Thursday's hearing was the first time they have been in the courtroom, though they have listened to every hearing by telephone.
They just weren't ready before, Maria Beardmore said.
A third attorney has taken over as defense counsel, leading to delays in the case.
Originally scheduled for January, the trial has been rescheduled for June 2007.
"We want to have it done and over with so we can grieve for Laura," her mother said. "We're in so much pain, we've never gone through anything like this before."
"But (the case) it's got to be done right," David Beardmore said.
Visiting the place their daughter was discovered is one step toward healing for them, they said.

Category: Questions about Income
Form 982: What is a "discharge of qualified real property business indebtedness"?
If you had debt cancelled and are no longer obligated to repay the debt, you generally must include the amount of cancelled debt in your income. However, if it was a discharge of real property business indebtedness, the debt generally does not have to be added to your return as income.
What is real property business indebtedness?
Qualified real property business indebtedness is indebtedness:
1. that is incurred or assumed in connection with real property used in a trade or business.
2. that is secured by that real property.
3. that was incurred or assumed:
A. Before 1993
B. After 1992, if the debt is either
(i) qualified acquisition indebtedness or
(ii) debt incurred to refinance qualified real property business debt incurred or assumed before 1993 (but only to the extent the amount of such debt does not exceed
the amount of debt being refinanced).
4. that is a debt to which you elect to apply these rules.
*Note: This provision does not apply to a corporation.
Qualified acquisition indebtedness is
1. debt incurred or assumed to acquire, construct, reconstruct, or substantially improve real property that is used in a trade or business and secures the debt, or
2. debt resulting from the refinancing of qualified acquisition indebtedness, to the extent that the amount of such debt does not exceed the amount of debt being refinanced.
What amount of cancelled debt can be excluded from income?
There are a few limitations as to the amount that you can actually exclude from income due to a discharge of real property business indebtedness. First, you cannot exclude more than the excess of the outstanding principal amount of the debt (immediately before the cancellation) over the net Full Market Value (FMV) (as of that time) of the property securing the debt, reduced by the outstanding principal amount of other qualified real property business indebtedness secured by that property (as of that time). The amount that can be excluded is further limited to the aggregate adjusted basis (as of the first day of the next tax year or the date of disposition, whichever is earlier) of depreciable real property you held immediately before the discharge. This does not include any property that was acquired in contemplation of the discharge. Any excess could not be excluded, and would be included in income.
To locate Form 982 within our program go to Income > Other Income > Less Common Income > Cancellation of Debt > Exclusions (Form 982) or use the FORMS Tab on the right hand side of the screen.
For more information, please review Publication 4681 and Form 982.

This permit is designed to meet three objectives that support the goal of saving campus permit holders money:
It is. A parking lot along 38th Street provides a low-cost remote parking option for those on East Campus that is similarly remote (1-2 mile bus ride from your workplace) and similarly underutilized (over 50% empty on average) in comparison to the lots offered to permit holders based on Main Campus. Free, covered, shuttle parking is currently available to East Campus drivers, with a shuttle trip of a similar length; see the last Q & A below.
The price difference is based on the distance from the parking lot to the principal workplace of the permit holder. A two-tiered proximity pricing system was devised in the 1970s for Parking Services because faculty and staff felt that it was unfair for someone who had to walk a long distance from their parking lot to their office be charged the same price as another in that same lot whose building adjoined the lot. Since that time, our office has used a pricing matrix that specifies the price/distance relationship between lots and buildings on campus. This matrix details over 8,000 lot-building price relationships between 69 parking lots and 117 buildings on campus. Approximately 2/3 of campus permit holders pay the highest rate to park relatively close to their primary workplace; 1/3 pay a lower rate to park further away – some out of choice to save money or because they don't drive very often, others because there is not enough close-in parking near their workplace to accommodate them. A smaller fraction park in a gravel lot and pay a lower rate.
Most that drive to work on East Campus buy EC Zone permits (lots 560, 562, 563, 566 & 567) and park in the section of the EC Zone closest to where they work. The only EC Zone lot available for the remote parking shuttle permit is lot 560. We will limit the number of permits issued in this lot (and others) to insure parking for all permit holders under normal circumstances. The other lots with remote parking shuttle permits are 544, 578 and 580. The number of permits issued here will also be limited. We will monitor the use of the new permits in these lots and work to insure the lots do not become overcrowded.
Parking permit prices are based, in part, on proximity – with a two-stage proximity based price structure. Persons who park in a lot adjacent to their primary workplace pay the proximate permit price of $54.00 per month; this is the same on Main and East Campuses. Approximately 72% of all faculty/staff permit holders choose to park close-in and to pay the highest rate of $54.00 per month. Another 17% or so pay the midrate ($46.00 per month) for less proximate parking. Some choose the less proximate option to save money; others are simply waiting for a chance at the higher-priced, close-in parking to become available to them.
Offering a remote parking shuttle permit does not change the cost of proximate parking. People with the privilege of parking adjacent to their building still pay the top permit price for that privilege. Simply charging all existing East Campus faculty and staff $14.00 to park would not better utilize East Campus lots; it would not better utilize the Stampede shuttle and it would not open parking space on Main Campus. To sell these low cost permits to East Campus employees in lots that are not remote from their buildings would be unfair to all other permit holders campus-wide who pay the standard price for proximate parking. In addition, lowering the permit price for existing permit holders with proximate parking would reduce revenue for our office, putting our operation in the red; as a self-funded auxiliary, we do not have the option of running a losing operation. Among other considerations, the bonds that financed the Euclid, Folsom and Regent parking garages require that PTS maintain an established revenue stream to cover the repayment of the bonds.
The number of permits allocated to a department does not change. Moving an existing permit holder from a Main Campus lot to an East Campus lot simply changes the location of that person's permit. In this instance, the department may have another existing permit holder waiting to move into the lot vacated by the permit holder moving to East Campus.
Switching to or from a remote parking shuttle permit is treated the same as any other change of lot location. Whether moving to an East Campus lot or to a Main Campus lot, specific lot availability will be based on both the number of permits allocated to your department that are unused and on availability of space in any specific lot. Departments are guaranteed an allocated number of permits, but not in any specific lot or lots. Moving an existing permit holder from their current Main Campus lot to an East Campus lot simply changes the location of that person's permit. The number of permits allocated to your department does not change. If you choose to move back to a Main Campus lot, your lot location will depend on space availability; the space you vacated to move to East Campus is likely to have been filled by another permit holder.
A faculty or staff member whose primary work location is on the Main Campus may purchase a remote parking shuttle permit and use it to park on East Campus for a carpool. Carpool members could ride the shuttle to Main from East Campus – or one member of the carpool could drop the others on Main and park on East and take the shuttle back to Main. Moving an existing permit holder from a current lot to an East Campus lot simply changes the location of that person's permit. The number of permits allocated to a department is not changed by this new permit.
Yes, but he or she cannot be the permit holder. The permit holder must show that their primary place of work is on the Main Campus.
Yes, but the standard business permit rules apply. While doing departmental business away from your primary work location, you may park in an approved lot by hanging your remote parking shuttle permit together with your department's business permit. You may not use a business permit (with any type of personal permit) to park while working at your primary work location. The Office of Internal Audit has determined that to do so is to use departmental funds for personal parking, a violation of State fiscal rules and a misuse of State funds - something one can lose a job over. Having to travel to and/or from East Campus to retrieve or replace a personal vehicle in order to use it for departmental business suggests that it is unlikely that these permits will be used with business permits.
These permits, like the less expensive gravel lot permits, do not have overflow lots. Permit allocations will be managed so that it will be unlikely you will find your lot full. However, it is possible that, for a variety of reasons, a lot may get too full and you will have to park elsewhere – on the street, at a meter, etc.
No. The remote parking shuttle permit has a specific purpose – to better utilize underused East Campus lots; better utilize the Stampede shuttle at times it is under utilized and to open up parking space on Main Campus.
In applying for the permit, we ask you to verify with your signature that your primary work location is not on East Campus; we also ask that you turn in the remote parking shuttle permit if your primary work location changes to East Campus. In addition, because many departments show a departmental and building location in PeopleSoft that is not correct, we check with departmental staff on each person's application - to verify primary work location. We verify work location for two main reasons. First, this permit is very low in cost because we are asking people to park far from their workplace and make a five to fifteen minute bus ride each way (depending on their work location). The second reason we are verifying work location is that many departments do not list actual work locations in PeopleSoft, rather they list all employees at a single location for simplicity's sake but actually have people assigned to a variety of different locations.
In addition to remote shuttle permits in lot 544 in the Research Park, East Campus employees actually have a free remote shuttle parking option similar to $14.00/month remote shuttle option offered to those based on Main Campus. Free, covered, shuttle parking is currently available at the RTD Table Mesa park-n-Ride garage at US 36 and Table Mesa Drive/South Boulder Road – the shuttle trip on Foothills Parkway to and from the 824 space Table Mesa park-n-Ride from East Campus takes about the same amount of time as the trip to and from East Campus from Main: seven minutes.
See a map of the entire park-n-Ride system, with 66 locations – all free. Parking at the Table Mesa park-n-Ride is free and the "Flatiron Flyer" bus route comes directly to CU Boulder's campus.

Game review
Offense: B
After a forgettable first half, Alex Smith completed 8 of 11 passes for 136 yards in the second half and directed scoring drives on four of the Niners' first five second-half possessions. His deftly placed 41-yard pass to Michael Crabtree down the left sideline set up the game-winning field goal. The one-two punch of Frank Gore and Kendall Hunter led a rushing attack that gained 178 yards, the Niners' most since Oct. 16.
Defense: B
Seattle's Marshawn Lynch (21 carries, 107 yards, TD) ended two impressive 49ers streaks by topping 100 yards and rushing for a score, but the 49ers held Lynch to 24 second-half yards in a dominant performance over the final two quarters. In the second half, Seattle managed three first downs and 72 yards. LB Larry Grant (11 tackles) sealed the win with his tomahawk strip of Tarvaris Jackson.
Special Teams: C
The best special-teams unit in the NFL nearly committed the game-deciding mistake as an Andy Lee punt was blocked for the first time since 2008, and Seattle's Marshawn Lynch scored on a 4-yard run one play later. David Akers hit four of five field-goal attempts, his miss coming from 52 yards, and set the NFL record for field goals in a season (42).
Coaching: B
Jim Harbaugh insisted he wasn't settling for field goals, but it sure appeared that way when the 49ers called running plays on two 3rd-and-long situations in the second half while deep in Seattle territory. Harbaugh gambled on 4th-and-2 at the Seahawks' 40 on the first drive of the second half, and the Niners converted as Alex Smith found Vernon Davis on a play-action pass for 16 yards, the key play on a game-tying TD drive.
The rushing streaks ended. The special teams suffered an uncharacteristic breakdown. And the 49ers had 43 passing yards, three points and several dropped passes in an ugly first-half performance. Still, they found their footing and came out of one of the NFL's most hostile environments with a win against a resurgent team that had won five of its past six games.

TransRockies Adds Six-Day Solo Event100 spots in solo race to open on March 18
Photo by Kelvin Trautman
Today, the TransRockies Race Series announced the addition of a six-day solo category, RUN6, to the annual TransRockies Run, a six-day, 120-mile footrace from Buena Vista to Beaver Creek, Colorado. From its inception in 2007, the six-day event has been a two-person team trail running adventure. While a solo three-day event was added in 2010, running the entire course solo has never been an option for participants—until now.
"In the beginning it was believed that the 6 day migration of the Trail Strider could only be conquered in pairs," proclaims a short (and amusing) YouTube video released today by TransRockies Events, "...that the obstacles were too great...the journey too arduous...the predators too fierce...too demanding to migrate alone. Not anymore."
Say the event organizers, "While running with the right partner is magical, it can be challenging to find the right partner, and some runners simply prefer to go it alone. The addition of the RUN6 Solo opens the event to all runners enabling them to test their minds and bodies on an individual basis."
Registration for the approximately 100 spots in the six-day solo event will open Monday, March 18, 2013 at 10 a.m. MDT. The registration fee is $1499. Runners who have already registered for the three-day solo event will be permitted to upgrade.

Falconer Shop Upgrade Moves Forward
MAYVILLE – A sorely needed upgrade to the Falconer Department of Public Facilities shop is moving forward.
George Spanos, Chautauqua County director of public facilities, was given the green light Monday to draft a resolution that would provide hundreds of thousands of dollars to replace the aging structure. The approval came during a meeting of the County Legislature's Public Facilities Committee.
If approved by the full legislature, a new public facilities shop would be built in Falconer at a cost of $200,000 to $300,000. Spanos told legislators a new shop built elsewhere from the ground up would cost as much as $4 million.
Members of the committee recently visited the county's three facilities shops. The Sheridan facility is believed to be in the best shape, while the Sherman shop is under review for a capital project.
"I think you have a clear understanding of the request (to upgrade)," Spanos said.
The current facility in Falconer, built in 1926, has seen little upgrades and has shown its age for decades. In fact, an analysis completed 20 years ago identified that a new shop was needed, Spanos said.
A potential layout of the new facility was presented to the committee in April. On Monday, Spanos got unanimous support for an upgrade. A resolution authorizing construction could be brought forward in June.
"I think it's time that we move this forward," said Tom Erlandson, D-Frewsburg. "I think we've waited long enough."
Said Robert Stewart, R-Ellington, "I think it's time we took the bull by the horns. The longer we wait the more it is going to cost."
Also discussed Monday was the transportation of hydraulic fracturing wastewater over county roads. Members of the Chautauqua County League of Women Voters expressed frustration over the lack of county oversight to ban the transportation of the waste.
"A traffic accident or flipped tanker could easily send gallons of this material into our water table," said Minda Rae Amiran.
Spanos said two companies have permits to transport the fracking material on County Route 23. The 5-mile road runs from North Harmony to Clymer. Trucks then proceed into Bear Lake, Pa., where two injection wells are located.
Spanos stressed as Public Facilities director, his priorities are with enforcing weight limits on county roads. He noted other trucks that haul milk and wood also are required to get permits to travel on the county road.
As for regulating material within the trucks, Spanos said that was an issue for the state Department of Environmental Conservation. He said he would contact the DEC with concerns raised by the League of Women Voters and report back to the committee. No further action was taken.

Here's how RW members rated this race in the past (86 votes).
In short: Busy but fun. One of the best large half marathons I've ran.In full: Despite the crowds it was one of the quickest half marathon times I've recorded. Great crowds, great scenery and - despite the volume of people - well organised. It's only when you go to a large event that is shambolic that you appreciate when one is well run. You'll always have waiting time at the bigger events but this was kept down to a minimum here.Date of review: November 19, 2012
In short: Beautiful - but only skin deepIn full: This race takes you on an epic route, sights of London and the parks in all their autumn glory (especially in the stunning sunshine we had), it truly is beautiful to look at.However this race's beauty is only skin deep. For me the atmosphere was just not there. Just not friendly enough. Was it all them Londoners thinking they were still on the tube? I am from the Styx but I do like my races with a bit of joy in them. Plus SO many peeps running with headphones. So many times I just wanted to chat or smile or have a little moan to someone but it seemed like almost everyone was shut off in their own world. :-( Practically speaking headphone make it hard to overtake people and say Excuse me, as they can't hear you. This was an issue as the race was busy and crowded with a couple of bottle-necks. Plus some marshals were not so good at keeping things safe - several spectators ran across my path, trying to dodge the runners. Loo queue terrible, baggage drop, didn't even bother. Organisation nuffink special. Missed my goody bag, t-shirt terrible. I-phone app good for timings, but not working on the day for my supporters to track me.How to improve? 1. Ban headphones 2. Sort out nutter spectators, 3. More toilets (OF COURSE) 4. Later races start for people coming from outside London. 5. Make app work during race 6. Help people feel the JOY!Date of review: October 26, 2012
In short: My favourite race but its getting a bit crowdedIn full: Fantastic race, and one I hope to do every year, though I've only ever managed to get a charity place for it each time.2 main negatives:1) pre-race baggage drop etc took a really long time this year, meaning no time for toilet, and it was not that easy to find the correct starting pen2) way to many spectators running across in front of me- its hard enough dodging the people running in the same direction as you at different speeds, but to be cut up many times along the route gets quite frustrating.Date of review: October 25, 2012
In short: Good views, too squashed first half of race, long lines for the toilet.Date of review: October 21, 2012
In short: Great vibeIn full: I really enjoyed this years Royal Parks. The cheering from the crowd is inspirational and the course is dead flat. Highly recommended.Date of review: October 21, 2012
In short: My first half marathon and was my favourite ever race. Amazing route, very well organised and great medal and t-shirt! Date of review: October 18, 2012
Date of review: October 11, 2012
In short: Great route, great supporters, great weather, great dayIn full: This was my first half marathon as part of my training for VLM in April and even though I found it tough (I had a target of under 2hrs 10 which was a struggle for me) I really enjoyed it. The route is great, going through lovely parks and past some of Londons major landmarks was a great taste of things to come in April. The route is very flat and the first part is quite wide through the streets of London and the traffic is corned off. The second half in Hyde Park is quite twisty as it doubles back on itself several times and also quite narrow in places which made it harder to maintain a constant pace whilst trying to overtake slower runners in front. The twisty route could make it hard for your friends and family to follow you....if it weren't for the brilliant iphone app that allows them to ftrack you using your timing chip! How clever!! This allowed my boyfriend to weave around the course and see me at 4 different points which was great for morale! The value for money was pretty good, the medal was nice, free T-Shirt is a good fit and good quality (if I'm being picky the yellow shade is a bit gaudy but can't have it all!) and good drinks and snacks after (look out for the snack stands though, I almost missed these after exiting the finish funnels). The support on route was amazing, at times you were hit by a wall of noise which was just brilliant and very uplifting when I was flagging around mile 10. Overall a really great race that I will definitely do again if I can get a ballot place. One tip - arrive much earlier than you think is necessary - I was still standing in a huge queue for the toilet when the race started!Date of review: October 11, 2012
In short: Beautiful, well-organised, flat and sunnyDate of review: October 10, 2012
In short: What a route !!In full: The course was absolutely excellent - taking you through the parts of London that you normally only run through at the end of the VLM (that bit when you're not feeling so good and your keen to get it over with). Several times I wanted to put the run on 'pause' and just drink in the views/look at the sights.Not a course for a pb, due to the numbers taking part - but very friendly and with good baggage/toilet facilites. Only addition I would make is for a couple of marquees for changing.Date of review: October 10, 2012

Posted on 02/06/2013 6:25:52 PM PST by neverdem
COLUMBUS, OhioA new form of clean coal technology reached an important milestone recently, with the successful operation of a research-scale combustion system at Ohio State University. The technology is now ready for testing at a larger scale.
For 203 continuous hours, the Ohio State combustion unit produced heat from coal while capturing 99 percent of the carbon dioxide produced in the reaction.
Liang-Shih Fan, professor of chemical and biomolecular engineering and director of Ohio States Clean Coal Research Laboratory, pioneered the technology called Coal-Direct Chemical Looping (CDCL), which chemically harnesses coals energy and efficiently contains the carbon dioxide produced before it can be released into the atmosphere.
In the simplest sense, combustion is a chemical reaction that consumes oxygen and produces heat, Fan said. Unfortunately, it also produces carbon dioxide, which is difficult to capture and bad for the environment. So we found a way to release the heat without burning. We carefully control the chemical reaction so that the coal never burnsit is consumed chemically, and the carbon dioxide is entirely contained inside the reactor.
Dawei Wang, a research associate and one of the group's team leaders, described the technologys potential benefits. "The commercial-scale CDCL plant could really promote our energy independence. Not only can we use America's natural resources such as Ohio coal, but we can keep our air clean and spur the economy with jobs," he said.
Though other laboratories around the world are trying to develop similar technology to directly convert coal to electricity, Fans lab is unique in the way it processes fossil fuels. The Ohio State group typically studies coal in the two forms that are already commonly available to the power industry: crushed coal feedstock, and coal-derived syngas.
The latter fuel has been successfully studied in a second sub-pilot research-scale unit, through a...

Reducing pollution is fine, but carbon dioxide isn't pollution. It's plant food. Expensive carbon capture and sequestration technology is needed only if you believe the anthropogenic global warming, AGW, hypothesis. There's no proof of AGW. We're supposed to accept this ideology on the basis of the precautionary principle! Where else does the left apply the precautionary principle?
it's a "faith based" initiative.
The left doesn't observe the precautionary principle with respect to quaranteening AIDS patients, in foreign policy and national security affairs, or in fiscal and monetary policy. But we're supposed to observe the precautionary principle for minor increases in a trace gas, carbon dioxide!
While the near infinite energy potential of thorium is largely ignored, we fret about the amount of CO2 that burning of coal releases. I am far more concerned about the health effects of fly ash and the trace radioactivity that we are spreading along with it than I am about CO2, and that is for one simple question:
What is the optimum temperature? Taken over the last several glacial cycles, on average most of Northern Europe and North America would be under hundreds if not thousands of feet of ice. For short periods it has thawed enough to grow food crops.
We also now find, thanks to a very recent project to research Antarctic ice cores that it was warmer 800,000 years ago. Yet, nobody seems very interested in why it was warmer then than now.
Are we warmer than the optimum or cooler? Who gets to decide? I am not interested in much of the frantic climate news until those simple questions are addressed.
Cut down on CO2, and you cut down on the planet's oxygen production.
These lying sphincters should be whipped within an inch of their lives, and then hung. Publicly.
Such a craven breach of the public trust is criminal on its face. But to do so in order to perpetrate a FRAUD, thus creating a cradle-to-grave control mechanism over virtually every facet of the lives of every living human being is abhorrent and vile. It is evil beyond words.
Spend 50 years "dumbing them down" with a State controlled crap education system, and then prey upon their enforced ignorance by feeding them bullsnot and soaking them for every dime you can't otherwise steal. I say they've way more than outlived their usefulness. Time to take out the garbage.
"The coal and iron oxide are heated to high temperatures..."
The article doesn't state how the coal is heated in the first place.
Out of curiosity—how is carbon dioxide recycled? Fed to plants?
Must of been telepathy the minute I read your synopsis I was thinking the same thing. What a waste of money on a pseudo scientific premise. The only reason it may get pushed (patent patent patent) will be because we have a fascist goverment and there's money in it for them. Let's see what happens if this makes a mention during the inaugural. Outside of that what other application does this have ?
Won't be good enough for the enviro-wackos including Obastard.
Not a bad idea- vent it into greenhouses.
It's engineering based on an ideology.
From the article: In the simplest sense, combustion is a chemical reaction that consumes oxygen and produces heat, Fan said. Unfortunately, it also produces carbon dioxide, which is difficult to capture and bad for the environment. So we found a way to release the heat without burning."
Their twist on the Broken Window fallacy.
You would think that a scientist would be smarter than that but then I am sure that he is being funded by a government grant to produce this technology.
How is making electricity more expensive by making the generation of the electricity less efficient going to spur the economy with jobs?
Yes you may produce a few construction jobs while you are building your white elephant of a coal plant but you are going to destroy jobs by making energy more expensive.
The best way to grow the economy is to make energy less expensive. You do that by reducing regulatory burdens that are counter productive. You do that by making it easier to build new modern generation plants and oil refineries. You do that by making it easier to license new coal mines nuclear power plants and oil fields.
This nonsense about carbon dioxide and anthropomorphic global warming is junk science and needs to be put in the dustbin of history.
Clear link between solar activity and winter weather revealed
Scientists have demonstrated a clear link between the 11-year sun cycle and winter weather over the northern hemisphere for the first time.
They found that low solar activity can contribute to cold winters in the UK, northern Europe and parts of America. But high activity from the sun has the opposite effect.
The study helps explain why the UK has been gripped by such cold winters over the last few years: the sun is just emerging from a so-called solar minimum, when solar activity is at its lowest.
But the Global Warming Hoax prognosticators are now saying that Sun activity has nothing to do with our weather here and cutting CO2 needs to continue.
I read the press release and what I linked in comment# 1. I wrote in comment# 1: "Expensive carbon capture and sequestration technology is needed only if you believe the anthropogenic global warming, AGW, hypothesis."
Coal-Direct Chemical Looping (CDCL), might be good for reducing real pollution. I don't see a need for carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) unless manmade climate change is proven. I'm still waiting for some evidence.
Dolphins, spotted owls, baby seals, and the Dali Lama still exhale this pollutant with every breath they take. Until we find a way to exterminate these polluters, we'll never be free of the carbon dioxide scourge.
Thanks neverdem.
Ideology or engineering it doesnt make a difference once you look at the bottom line.
Our economy can not afford a 35% increase in the price of electricity and still compete on the world market.
The Chinese are working very hard to reduce the cost of the energy in their economy. They have built the largest Hydro-electric dam in the world, they building a fleet of modern nuclear power plants and buy up oil leases world wide. They are aggressively expanding their access to cheap energy. We simply can not afford this kind of navel gazing idealistic non-sense that does nothing useful and raises the cost of everything.
It's a good thing plants don't think or liberal plants might be trying to eliminate O2!
We need to use all of our resources including coal of course, omitting wind and solar. Use our resources while developing new technologies. Cut back drastically the power of the EPA
Forget coal! It's cold fusion that will give us all cheap energy......if only those machines can be tweaked just a tiny bit more. Some day.
Bump for later.
OTOH, the article also neglects that pulverizing coal is not energy-neutral, either...
And it says nothing about the thermal energy conversion efficiency of the process...
We're at 390ppm of CO2 and rising, starting out from about 280. Plant life drops off rapidly below 200. We are in no danger of that.
Great points. From a health perspective homosexuality is deadlier than smoking, yet it's seen as an alternative and even positive lifestyle choice.
Does Fan have any contact info? Ignorance can be cured.
Great insights. Thackney posted a chart on electrical energy generation and its related costs. IIRC we lose in conversion about triple what we produce.
Your points are valid: there is a group called 350.org that thinks along those lines (reducing CO2 is good). There is also plant death and ice age spiral below a certain amount. But getting to that point now with our added CO2 is basically impossible.
"Out of curiosityhow is carbon dioxide recycled? Fed to plants?"
My thoughts too...if they capture the CO2, what then are they doing with it, or proposing to do with it? Maybe a huge greenhouse, creating a rainforest etc? Oh, wait...we already have that...it is our Earth's ecosystem!
Just do what we have always done...release the CO2 to the Earth's atmosphere...
Or another thought...a facility, a 'living' quarters, for these AGW leftist, zombiefied goonies to capture the CO2 they are breating out, enhancing their CO2 environment until they are overcome by the sheer joy of being deprived of O2 and saving all the rest of us from Global Warming doom!
Excellent graphs. Thanks for the link. Here is another of interest, from Vostok Station via wiki:
I am just stunned that conversion losses are 170% of gross generation. Conversion seems like a gold mine of opportunity if just 10% of those losses can be captured back you've just increaesd gross generation by over 15%.
Thanks for your great insights. It's hard to sort through all the muck and get to the truth.
Billions have been spent getting it this low.
Coal, Gas, Nuclear, etc are all thermal engines and subject to the Rankine Cycle of Thermodynamics.
Our (the relatively few who are informed and aware) ability to shout over these Media-aided-and-abetted Josef Goebbels acolytes, or to re-educate the already dismally, abysmally uninformed and misinformed public, simply doesn't exist.
What is left are the two options of:
1) Lie down and take it up the Brown Snake hole...
2) Just start tracking these vicious predators wherever they live and eat, and start filling our meat lockers with their nutirent-dense organs. Hearts and livers are a must-have, and the hypothalamus, pituitary glands and adrenal glands would make a lip-smacking fun desert on some rainy afternoon!
Perhaps I'll write a cookbook to be used "After The Big One" (you knew it was coming once O'Bunghole stole the last election!) which shows people how to make tasty, filling dishes using parts harvested from wayward liberals and "Climate Change" liars.
To me that smacks of furthering ideology, not engineering prowess.
Of course it won't be "good enough",
because their goals aren't even what they are stating (reducing CO2 output).
Their goals are zero energy use [by the peasants] and people shivering in the dark.
While I understand your point, CO2 is a valuable gas that has many possible uses. So there are other reasons for seperating and capturing the gas. One possible use would be to bubble through Algae tanks to produce bio-diesel or feedstocks for butanol production.
Or we could just let it go and let it feed the vegitation like it was designed to do. Just sayin'... ;)
[Out of curiosityhow is carbon dioxide recycled? Fed to plants?]
It's shipped to a Red state and released in the dead of night.
"These lying sphincters should be whipped within an inch of their lives, and then hung. Publicly."
No, no, you are doing it all wrong big guy. First you hang them...by their toes of course. THEN you whip them within an inch of their lives. Then you whip them some more. Then you drop them in shark infested waters...or in a hog pen if your name is Henry.
I must concur... and only wish my name were "Henry," because that sounds like alot of fun!!!

Blu-ray Review: Treme
Consider the dense, multi-layered, centuries-old, and sometimes impenetrable culture of New Orleans — especially in the months just after Hurricane
Katrina and the ensuing Federal levee failures nearly drowned the city forever. Is any other scenario more difficult to depict on the small screen? Yet that was the arduous task chosen by David Simon and Eric Overmyer — part-time New Orleans residents and famed co-conspirators on Homicide and The Wire — who came up with HBO's Treme. Season 1 is now on Blu-ray, coinciding with the airing of Season 2.
No one else in TV could have pulled this off. Simon and Overmyer understand that the magic of this great city resides in small, casual moments: the brilliant music that erupts spontaneously on the streets every day, or the way even strangers greet each other on those same streets with genuine warmth and interest. The result is a series that, clearly, isn't for everyone — just like New Orleans itself. But then, if you prefer the manufactured drama of gunfights and car chases, you can always find it elsewhere, no effort required.

Specter is a RINO no longer
GOP Senator Arlen Specter joining Democrats
Associated Press - OneNewsNow - 4/28/2009 11:35:00 AM
WASHINGTON, DC - Pennsylvania Republican Senator Arlen Specter has announced he is leaving the GOP and will join the Democrats. (Watch news video report)
In a statement released this morning, Specter said that since his election in 1980 as part of the Reagan "Big Tent," the Republican Party has moved far to the right.
According to Specter, more than 200,000 Republicans in Pennsylvania have changed their registration to be come Democrats. He says: "I now find my political philosophy more in line with Democrats than Republicans."
He says he plans to run for re-election as a Democrat in the 2010 Pennsylvania primary. He has served five terms as a member of the GOP.
The move would give Democrats a 60-seat filibuster proof majority in the Senate -- if Democrat Al Franken is eventually sworn in as the next senator from Minnesota.
Associated Press reports that President Obama fully supports the senator's decision, saying the Democratic Party is "thrilled to have you."
Face-off against Toomey?
Specter's strategy apparently is to increase his chances of returning to the Senate for a sixth term. Diane Gramley of the American Family Association of Pennsylvania points out that for years the 79-year-old Specter has been described as a RINO -- "Republican in name only." (Listen to audio report)
According to Gramley, Specter has lined up philosophically with Democrats for quite a while. The pro-family activist was asked if the senator has supported the Republican Party platform? "No -- he's not pro-life, he's not pro-family," she emphasizes. "He has not followed the platform of the Republican Party for as long as I can remember."
Will the switch to the Democratic ticket make Specter a stronger candidate in the general election?
"Definitely, it would strengthen Specter's running with the Democrats, but not with Republicans," responds Gramley. "I think that he has definitely cut the last string that ties him to anything Republican."
His chief challenger is Republican conservative Pat Toomey, who Gramley believes will win that primary easily. So the big battle likely will be in the general election in 2010. Specter narrowly defeated Toomey for the Republican nomination in 2004.

Love this stuff!!
Posted by healthydoesit on Oct 10, 2013
Wow!! This is the best tasting honey. I've never had anything like it. Full of flavor and super creamy. It's expensive, but well worth it for the antibacterial effects. My boyfriend was suffering from a needles and pins sore throat, which normally turns to strep. I fed him.spoonfuls of this at night and he was able to sleep with less pain. Two days later, no soreness and no infection! Will definitely purchase again! Take a look at my page to see over 100 real reviews from products I've purchased and tested here at Iherb!
Too bad about the honey being in plastic.
Posted by Reviewer2437438 on Nov 18, 2012
I would rather not have the manuka honey in plastic so I will not purchase this again. I will say that the taste is very good and if you are not worried about plastic, then I would rec this honey to you.
its good taste
Posted by Reviewer2519362 on Dec 15, 2010
its good tasting honey but why organic product packaging in plastic jar. If I was a producer I sell them in glass jars its more healtier. Because I hate plastics and especially plastic bottle and jars..
