If you do not want to wait in line to get in to parking lot "B" you are welcome to park in lots "C" and "D" upon arrival. It's a very short walk across the fields to get to the check in and start line.
5K runners and Kid's Run participants should park in lots "C" & "D" unless arriving early for other distance events.

When the Special Education process begins, an initial referral for an evaluation is made. The Individuals with Disabilities Education Improvement Act (IDEIA) and corresponding New York State Regulations have made significant changes with respect to the initial referral process, including the initial referral source. Only specific people may make a referral for an initial evaluation, while different individuals may make something called a "Request for Initial Evaluation." This new process is outlined below.
The first step in determining if your child has a disability and if he or she requires special education services is to request an evaluation. This initial referral must be in writing and may be made by you or a designated school district official.

Brilliant blue skies? Or bonkers? Steve Hilton, the Prime Minister's thinker-in-chief is a bit of both. He is, or would like us to think he is, your quintessential modern man, the guy who wanders around No 10 in his bare feet when he is not holding seminars on the latest idea fresh out of Davos, Silicon Valley or a modish American campus.
No prizes, therefore, for guessing at the source of the story in yesterday's Financial Times in which Hilton's latest cerebral contortions are laid bare. No attempt was made to conceal the fingerprints of disdainful mandarins.
Perhaps the UK could ignore EU regulations on temporary workers, suggested the T-shirt-clad head of strategy? Not if you don't want your Prime Minister to go to jail, came the reply from No 10's top mandarin (not averse himself, it seems, to hyperbole). How about abolishing all Government press officers and replacing them with a single blogger per department? Abolish all consumer rights? Close all Job Centres?
Then the most toxic: abolish maternity leave in order to encourage employers to take on more women (follow the logic?). And, finally everyone's favourite: use technology to separate the clouds and bring in more sunshine. Who could argue with that?
Behind the mix of fury and mockery (Twitter had a field day with dozens of suggestions, such as privatising Tuesdays) is a serious dilemma for anyone involved in government. How do you make a difference?
The Tories have long seen Whitehall as protecting bloated special interests. Labour believed it was the last bastion of the posh Establishment. Tony Blair famously wailed about the scars on his back as he became bogged down trying to reform public services. Margaret Thatcher complained incessantly about the civil service as the enemy within. Gordon Brown simply threw mobile phones at people. They, and the people working for them, became frustrated at their apparent inability to bring about change.
Hilton's predecessors under Labour, such as Geoff Mulgan and Matthew Taylor, also came up with ideas that had little political traction. With everybody else immersed in the day-to-day, pushing the boundaries was part of their brief – although their ideas were not remotely as wacky as these.
David Cameron enjoys one major advantage over his predecessors. He can cite empty state coffers in order to engineer a reduction in the size of the state – which to more ideological Conservatives is political nirvana.
He also faces one major impediment, the fact of the Coalition or, more precisely, Coalition Mark II.
In the first year, such was Nick Clegg's determination to "co-own" every policy, he played down the differences. Once he saw Cameron's ability to double-cross him during the referendum on voting reform, he realised the need to change tack.
Now each day brings evidence of the yawning gap between the Tories' and Liberal Democrats' approach to state, society and the economy. Vince Cable's weekend denunciation of the Republican "nutters" in charge of the US Congress was one of the more colourful examples.
Hilton's politics represents the more flamboyant end of a new generation of Conservatism. It is a mix of US-style scepticism or hostility towards the state and its ability to provide all but the most essential services efficiently; a belief in bottom-up "empowerment" and activism (no surprise that he was chief architect of the Big Society); and a geek-led informality of style that is the preserve of social media and internet gurus (his wife, Rachel Whetstone is one of the head honchos at Google).
These young men and women in a hurry look around and see a contrast between entrepreneurs (fast lane) and public sector employees (slow lane). The former are prepared to risk everything for a great idea. The latter follow convention. The former insist on helping themselves. The latter believe in entitlements. Behind every generalisation there tends to be a kernel of truth. Even if one does not agree with Hilton's world view – and nobody seriously imagines he was doing more than trying to provoke discussion with his bizarre declarations – one can understand his frustrations.
Yet there is one gaping flaw in the Government's understanding of the new wave of tech-based entrepreneurialism. Facebook and Twitter embrace not just this new mood but also a more pronounced sense of equity. And it is this that is so lacking in Cameron's approach to economic austerity. The supine bail-out of the bankers and the servility towards the Murdochs proved that we are not all in it together. The pain has been shared out, in varying degrees, among the mainstream population, but not among the very wealthy and the obscenely wealthy.
The reason Hilton's reported remarks about abolishing maternity leave strikes such a nerve is that it reinforces a view that the wealthy can dictate the terms and that de-regulation is designed solely for this purpose.
Here, the Liberal Democrats, and Cable in particular, have a serious role to play. This is, or at least should be, a deal breaker. Belt-tightening for all is in a different universe from belt-tightening for most.
The young generation may be less wedded to a Whitehall-knows-best approach; suspicion of private enterprise may have been overcome in the 1980s. But the financial crash has not turned us into manic deregulators. Rather the reverse. It has revived a traditional notion of fairness, one that politicians – and their advisers – play with at their peril.

Why The iPhone Is Better Than Andriod
The barber was using an Instinct. He said he used to have an iPhone but found it "too complicated". He didn't need the "email features" that the iPhone had. It sounded to me like a salesman had done his job.
So yes we know that the iPhone is a great product. It is a game changer. The question is will it be another death by a thousand cuts with salesmen desperate to make their cut down-selling something which is just "good enough"?
I wonder if the salesman got a commission for selling an Instinct.
What phone is he using now? If it is a dumb phone then he can't afford the data plan and is giving excuses why he doesn't need the iPhone. I don't use the email on the iPhone at all.
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. - Steve Jobs
This is one of the reasons that I personally believe Apple HAS to release an iPhone on Verizon ASAP.
I totally agree. If Apple wants to stay on top of this smartphone business - and everything else suggests that they do, then they MUST get the next iPhone on Verizon in the fall at the very latest. There's really no two ways about it.
I've heard a lot of analysts and pundits explain how it is beneficial for Apple to stay exclusively on AT&T, but I really can't think of any advantages that can beat 90 million new customers lusting after the iPhone!? Not to mention the sales potential in New York and San Francisco when they can actually use an iPhone for telephone calls!
Not an insider - not an outsider. Just right in the middle of it all.

Android's achilles heel is that it can't carry its installed base forwards . . .
sg - can you elaborate?
Android devices are all different. There is no recognisable (to ordinary folk) UI consistency, no central, user friendly OS updating; it's down to the handset maker and carrier to offer OS updates, and there's no reason to, because they don't own the customer relationship. So only a tiny fraction of the installed base will ever be on the latest OS version. I understand the user even has to discover and explicitly install app updates individually, whereas iPhone encourages one-click mass updating without any searching. Android is replicating the MS Windows for PC's situation where the PC maker doesn't have a long term customer relationship. What did HP just decide about its Windows 7 tablet, which has all those good Android properties of being more powerful and fuller featured than iPad, more flexible, part of a huge range of products from many manufacturers with different features, yet all capable of running the same applications. How could such advantages not completely overwhelm iPad? Clearly HP has recently figured it out, even if Bosco hasn't yet. In that situation, the "manufacturer" is just a merchant buying in a feature set and branding it, the same as WalMart.
Ummm, pats… You're the one who said "think of the average consumer" and saying that they wouldn't be able to figure Android out. I beg to differ. I have anecdotal evidence to back up my opinion. I have a friend who got a Droid a few months ago. She has computer skills comparable to my Mom. We're not talking geeks. We're talking smart people who use applications for their fields and were both late adopters in the 1990s. She does far more with her Droid than my Mom does with her 3GS.
Droid interface is different from iPhone, not just visually, but how it flows. Being used to iPhone, it took me a couple hours with my N1 to figure out how liberating the multitasking and notification systems were. It took me a couple days for it to seem natural. And now, when I pick up my 3GS (rarely), it seems so pedestrian to me.
So, no, I'm not calling you stupid, and I'm just laughing at what you told me to do. Thanks for your service and all. I was an AF brat in my early childhood, so I appreciate it greatly. But I think if you can't find a better competitive advantage for iPhone, you're gonna wind up disappointed that more and more regular people in the coming year don't either. That's all.
sg - thanks for the reply.
I agree with most of what you're saying, but there's also always going to be a "we need more choice" crowd (about which I'm not worried), and those who settle for "Good Enough" once and then take years to change once they get used to a particular device (which could be Android if they're glued to Verizon currently). However, as you pointed out before, Apple may not want to go after that segment because it could turn out more costly to do so than any additional benefit. I continue believe that exclusivity is the biggest hurdle for Apple domestically (I posted more in the exclusivity thread).
... Having multiple handset vendors ensures that the pace of innovation, coverage of price ranges, and divergence of devices beyond smartphones and tablets will promote a robust 3rd party marketplace ...
That's the strategy that Microsoft used against Apple and other OS companies, has become marketing 101. I really want to know will it work for Android against iPhone, Nokia, RIMM, HP (WebOS) and Samsung (BADA). So far, Verizon is using the same trick as for RIMM phone, buy one get one free to inflate the market share number.

What phone is he using now? If it is a dumb phone then he can't afford the data plan and is giving excuses why he doesn't need the iPhone. I don't use the email on the iPhone at all.
He said that he had had an iPhone but switched back to the instinct. He didn't really elaborate as to why other than to say that it suited him better. If I said he was dumb for such a suggestion he could have retaliated with the razor and scissors. He would only be dumb - I could have ended up looking dumb.
It was a casual conversation but I thought it worth passing on.
Dear Brad,
We get it. Your point is clear. We disagree with most of your opinion. Apple disagrees with your opinion. Let's discuss more when there are new developments, shall we?
I used to be a developer myself not-so-long ago, so at first I at least sympathized with you a bit, but you've been creating too much noise. It's not like I'm going to put you on 'ignore' (I never do), but I've found myself skipping all your posts.
Since your whining on this board (and insulting its members) isn't going to change anything about Apple's policy, there are much better uses of your time - and ours.
... Android is replicating the MS Windows for PC's situation where the PC maker doesn't have a long term customer relationship.

Very good point. HP and Samsung have gotten wiser.
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. - Steve Jobs
@rattyuk… I come here because I have this idealistic notion that we can agree without being disagreeable. Look at the bile you guys toss at me because I disagree with some of your assessments of Apple's and competitors' products. You've tossed it before, and I simply stood my ground, and now look, one key point I predicted is coming true. And that doesn't make me Nostradamus. The writing has been on the wall since December. Nor am I "nah nah nah"-ing. I hope you will open your eyes and see the fundamental problem with Apple.
Now look above, where a couple of you realize that not having iPhone on Verizon is hurting Apple and will continue hurting Apple more. Yeah, no kidding. And this is where you can take a leap of faith and think, hey, Bosco kinda has a sense for this, even if his sense pisses us off. Verizon will not have the iPhone so long as Steve Jobs is CEO. The conflict is deeply personal between him and Ivan Seidenberg. We all know that when Jobs is backed into a corner though, he will put on his smile and come up with a story about how everything is better now, and the old enemy is the new friend. Adobe and Verizon won't bite this time. Unlike Microsoft, who saw a weak Apple on the verge of death, Adobe and Verizon have seen a belligerent Apple willing to go to war with anyone. And either will be happy to push Apple off a cliff.
As shareholders, this ought to concern you now. Just as starting in November, I said that Verizon's gloves-off approach to Droid ought to concern you.

Looking at the figures it actually looks like Google is eating into everyone except Apple. Apple has held steady while everyone else, including RIM have dropped. There should be a nice uptick next quarter when the new iPhone is released and all the original first time buyers who didn't upgrade get their chance to get their hands on the new machine. Time will tell.
When people realize that bottled water quality isn't about brand (see repeated consumer group tests) but about convenience (easy to take on the go, easy to keep track of how much you drink), the store brand will fly off the shelves at a lower price.
Based on this watery business analysis, can you please explain how the iPod? managed to win a 70% market share?
Not an insider - not an outsider. Just right in the middle of it all.
This is one of the reasons that I personally believe Apple HAS to release an iPhone on Verizon ASAP. It's not about how much money can be made from Verizon's 91m subscribers. Nor is it an issue of whether to release a CDMA version now, or an LTE version later.
The real issue is getting the iPhone onto Android's strongest turf (Verizon)...before Android becomes "good enough". I have desperately wanted an iPhone since it came out, but having had bad experiences with AT&T in the past, I refuse to go back to AT&T. So I have a Moto Droid on Verizon. I picked it because it was the phone that offered the features that I want, and was able to sync with my Mac without any additional software (like BlackBerry's require) ...
Now, I feel the same urgency for Apple to release the iPhone for Verizon. What do you think of Bosco's comment that Droid is much better than iPhone?
Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. - Steve Jobs
Now look above, where a couple of you realize that not having iPhone on Verizon is hurting Apple and will continue hurting Apple more. Yeah, no kidding. And this is where you can take a leap of faith and think, hey, Bosco kinda has a sense for this, even if his sense pisses us off.
As I'm one of the proponents of the idea that we're missing some market with AT&T exclusivity, let me briefly respond to this. Yes, we don't have the whole market. So? We don't even know why. Drop your theories of Steve's ego for a second because nobody knows then the legal contract with AT&T expires, let alone the specifics Verizon or Sprint may demand of Apple that may hurt Apple.
So we agree with some of what you're saying. We disagree with most. Reaching perfect agreement, as you hope, is impossible, unless we take your view or you take ours (wishful thinking). Repeated discussions of the same issues over and over again just create noise.
Android now outselling Apple's iPhone, claims NPD
Jonny Evans
May 10, 2010
Smartphones running Google?s Android mobile OS are outselling Apple?s iPhone, claiming second place position among US phone operating systems, the latest NPD Group data claims.
Based on data taken from 150,000 people filling in an online survey (which suggests some of the data could be shaky), the figures detail smartphone share in the first quarter of this year, they claim Android OS moved into second position at 28 percent behind RIM?s OS (36 percent) and ahead of Apple?s iPhone OS (21 percent).
Owning one-fifth of the smartphone market already isn?t such a bad achievement for Apple. Add in the data we picked up last week - that iPhone sales surged 131.6 percent year-on-year and you can see the company?s pretty healthy.
The appearance of Google Android on the scene has changed the market, however, and the readiness of mobile makers to jump on the search giant?s mobile bandwagon must have caused consternation to Cupertino. Android?s appearance may foster competition, but does mean Apple isn?t in a one-horse race.
Last month, Apple COO, Tim Cook said: "If you look in terms of the geographies, we had some staggering growth rates, as you mentioned. If you look at Asia Pacific as an example, the iPhone units in Asia Pacific grew 474% year-over-year. Japan grew 183. Europe grew 133. So these are some fabulous numbers we?re seeing, just incredible demand for iPhone.?
?As in the past, carrier distribution and promotion have played a crucial role in determining smartphone market share,? said Ross Rubin, executive director of industry analysis for NPD. ?In order to compete with the iPhone, Verizon Wireless has expanded its buy-one-get-one offer beyond RIM devices to now include all of their smartphones.?
Strong sales of non-Apple devices helped boos Verizon, though we are minded to wonder what impact opening iPhone sales up via Verizon would have on Apple?s smartphone share in the US…
Current smartphone market leader, RIM, is developing its answer to Apple and Android in the form of its BlackBerry 6 OS; Microsoft is praying for another chance with Win Phone 7 and HP?s Palm purchase are all factors playing into the future evolution of the smartphone biz.
Apple meanwhile will define its next 12 months with the next-gen iPhone, which many believe will show its face for the first time (legitimately) at WWDC 2010 next month.

Rodeos: To Ban or Not to Ban?
While New Zealand rodeo enthusiasts look to modernize rodeo rules to increase animal welfare, activists insist that the only change capable of protecting the animals is one that bans the sport entirely.
What about the bulls being ridden, the bucking horses, or the steers being wrestled?
"We see no point at all in the review of the code," says Hans Kriek, the executive director of Save Animals from Exploitation. "We will make it clear to the Government that it is time to ban rodeos."
Although the National Animal Welfare Advisory Committee is making New Zealand's Draft Code of Welfare (Rodeos) open to the public and is accepting submissions for suggested revisions until November 26, Kriek claims that "every single animal rights organization is against rodeos."
MORE: Wild Animals Under the Big Top: Amusement or Abusement?
According to SPCA manager Geoff Sutton and Canterbury Vets owner Steve Williams, organizers of the 2012 Methven Rodeo in New Zealand not only obeyed the current welfare code, but also went "above and beyond" to make sure the animals were treated properly.
But this is only one example; there are many more rodeos across the world that may not be as up-to-code.
The New Zealand Rodeo Cowboys Association calls cowboys and cowgirls the backbone of the sport. But what about the bulls being ridden, the bucking horses, or the steers being wrestled? Clearly, they're infusing the rodeo sport with their fear, anger, and lack of desire to be a part of it.
Rodeos are bizarre representations of national glory that somehow bring families together for "fun" picnic outings, much like football inspires fans to tailgate. As you can see in this video from the 2012 Methven Rodeo in New Zealand, children can even participate at rodeo events. However, rodeos weren't always theatrical displays of athleticism.
The sport originated in Mexico and Spain as an informal way for vaqueros to share their cattle herding techniques. Cowboys in the United States, Canada, South America and Australia turned the productive practice into a competition, adding rough stock and timed events. They include tie-down roping, team roping, steer wrestling, saddle bronc and bareback riding, bull riding, pole bending, goat tying and barrel racing.
As you can see in the pictures below, all events seem painful for both the animals and the humans involved, so why has the rodeo become an age-old tradition that is now the official state sport of Wyoming, Texas and South Dakota? One can only assume ego, pride, and the thrill of risk-taking are involved, combined with the ability to find more value in a shiny medal than in broken animal and human bones.
So what can you do to get involved in this animal activist issue?
Write a petition on change.org against New Zealand rodeos, sign this petition to ban rodeos in the United States, write letters to sponsors, or hold a demonstration.
The cows, horses, bulls, sheep, and aging cowboys with too many long-term injuries to count will thank you.
Should rodeos be outlawed in the United States?

Looking for some bike advice, please.
I started long distance tris last year on a road bike and am hooked.
I now wish to invest in a "race bike" for these events.
Has anyone advice to offer on:
- type of bike (i.e. road with tribars or triathlon)
- type or brand of bike for female cyclists (is it best to get a "female" bike or "unisex")
- anywhere in East Anglia particularly good for bike fit / advice (I don't want them to see a girl shopping for a bike and fleece me!)
P.S. I've got £2k to spend
Ta for any advice.
...oh, and I'm already working on the cheapest time saver of all = weight loss
I found that I needed a women's specific bike, managed on a men's initially but was so much more comfortable when I swapped. Specialized suit me and I race long distance on a Ruby with tri bars though I do have a set of race wheels which make it lighter. I think fit is the most important thing, my LBS were absolutely ace - hopefully someone can recommend a good one near to you.
Thanks for the advice.
I currently ride a TREK 2.5 C E. I didn't have a bike fit before purchase and feel it's a bit big for me.
I have a LBS to try.
If you are OK keeping the Trek as a road bike then maybe a dedicated Tri/TT bike is the way to go. If you are selling the Trek because it's too big then you don't want your only bike to be a time trial bike - you probably already know that - so in that case get a road bike but tell the fitter you intend to use it for triathlon with tri bars as that'll make a difference to the fit.
There are some bikes made to double up as road and tri bikes - some Cervelos used to be and I think Neil Pryde - think they have a dual position seat post for both a road and time trial position - not totally sure what is on the market like that right now though if anything.
I'd make sure the budget included some aero wheels - but they tend to be expensive and you can often pick up little used examples as people tend to save them just for races so second hand can make sense.
I think it'd be best to hold onto the Trek, with the intention to as a winter / all-weather bike.
Key points from what ye're saying seem to be:
- get fitted for the bike
- tri-specific bike and / or components
As a (cheapsake) aside, do bikes and their components get cheaper as the year draws to a close?

With hinges along the sides and bridge, these shades are the ultimate grab-and-go accessory. Available in both black and tortoiseshell, they feature a timeless silhouette that will flatter any face, and a handy storage case to keep them safe when not in use.
These glasses are great! I have a large head and the fact that there are multiple pivot points makes it look like these glasses arent bending away from my face. These were perfect for my wedding as well. For fun pictures where the guys had sunglasses on I could leave them on, since I had an all black and white wedding. When I was not using them I could tuck them in my pocket without seeing a huge bulge or putting them on the ground to have them get broken. I love these!5
These sunglasses are ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!! I am very picky in general, and I love these. They show great style while being very convenient with their easy folding. When I received these as a sampled, I literally laughed as I opened the sample, thinking they would be awful. After trying them on, they will replace my Ray Bans. They are great. Plus if I love them it won't cost too much.5

Hi All,
What has been your experience with that huge front overhang? Does it get scraped easily on driveways and bumps? Or does it fall more on the reasonable side?
It's one of my biggest pet peeves so I just want to have an idea of what I'll be dealing with. I tend to be careful when approaching unfamiliar inclines, by slowing down and approaching at an angle. Is this something I'll have to do constantly with this car? Or would that not even be enough?

Eva Mendes' sexiness is causing a stir once again.
A very sexy, provocative new Calvin Klein billboard featuring Eva Mendes is stirring up controversy.
The extra large underwear ad takes up the entire side of a building on the corner of Houston Street and Lafayette Street in Soho and is facing criticism from neighborhood residents who want it taken down.
Just like when her Calvin Klein Secret Obsession commercial had to be revised because it was too sexy for TV… You go girl!

Leonardo DiCaprio Fumes at Hypocrisy Charge on Global Warming
The earth can be saved if we listen to Leonardo DiCaprio. He has worshipped at the feet of Al Gore on the global warming issue and presents a new film designed to 'scare' folks into believing that they are at fault for global warming. But Leo is not at fault. Just ask him, but be careful, he gets testy when quizzed on the way he lives his life.
The New York Daily News reports that Leo who is urging the world to go "green," insisted yesterday that he is not a do-as-I-say, not-as-I-do hypocrite because he takes the occasional gas-guzzling private jet.
The paper notes that DiCaprio got testy when a reporter confronted him at the screening of his eco-documentary, "The 11th Hour." Asked whether he flew in a luxury, private jet, he spat back, "No, I took a train across the Atlantic." When it was noted that many stars who preach conservation use emission-heavy private jets, a testy DiCaprio countered that he had taken a commercial flight from New York.
"I try to travel commercial as much as I can," he said. He added that he was irritated with the media for going after former Vice President Al Gore, whose own film "An Inconvenient Truth" picked up an Oscar. Gore was slammed for the amount of power his sprawling Tennessee mansion uses.
"We're all trying the best we can; truly, we really are," he said.

1st paragraph
Miscellaneous by: Ian Dawn
Status: Finished
Genre: Horror
Ian Dawn
The night came in quickly as if GOD had reach over on his bedside table and switched off the sun. Cold and fog now started layering in towards the cabin as if in slow motion, and the five unsuspecting holiday makers inside had no idea what was going to happen next. Dave a car salesman sat next to the log fire stoking the dry cedar with twigs and leaves to start the solid burn and push back the seeping cold from outside. Lucy a hairdresser and Dave's girlfriend was looking reading "Who" magazine finding out if Kim K's marriage is all over or not. The other three still unpacking as the first jolt hit the timer construction. "BANG" "BANG" BANG" the whole cabin shook and Lucy screamed as she fell to the floor.
Paragraph Eight (Ian Dawn)
Lucy Stood for a moment in the hospital grounds, the sun starting to rise and take away the death and despair she was feeling.
"Max is dead" she said to herself out aloud and as she hung her head and started to cry she felt a presence close to her that made the hair at the nape of her neck rise and a chill spill down her spine like ice water poured down her back. She spun quickly and caught a glimpse of something in the shadows, but it was gonewith a blink of her eye.
"Lucy" Jenna called from the open automatic front doors ofthe hospital. "David is awake and they say we can see him" she yelled now.
Lucy turned to walk back towards the medical facility but as she turned her eyes drifted upward towards the roof to of thethree story historic building. I figure was beckoning her to turn away, she heard a voice in her head begging her to go back, to not enter the hospital. Her gaze fixed on the figure bathed in the rising sunlight of morning was David; she knew it was him although the glare from behind his silhouette obscured his form slightly.
A dark image flashed next to David and almost glided to where he was on the roof, there was no struggle no fight just the known forecast of what was to happen next. The world stopped as the figure pushed David from the edge and she could see in his face as he fell towards her he had his eyes shut and his arms crossed as if laying on a morgue slab. David hit the ground in front of her, bones and vital fluids escaped his bodies shell as he hit with such force and as she look at his face she realised his eyes were not shut they were missing as if ripped from his skull.
"LUCY! C'mon David's awake" Jenna screamed one last timeand the words spun her senses as the image of David faded with a snap of her eyelids.
Oh Shit! What's happening to us?

For those of us still lamenting the loss of the remarkable Sarah Jane Smith, there is a glimmer of hope. Shortly before her illness rendered her unable, she turned in a first draft of her autobiography to her publishers. The book will cover her whole life, from her Liverpudlian upbringing, through the Dr Who years and up to her current incarnation in The Sarah Jane Adventures. Her husband and daughter have worked on the redrafting since her death and the book is set for release this fall. Now to build that time machine.

Upcoming Autobiography by Elisabeth Sladen
- 08.25.11
Review: Joe Simon, My Life In Comics
- 07.18.11
It's not often that you can call someone a living legend, but Joe Simon fits the description. Realize, for a moment, that this is an autobiography written by a man who is ninety-seven years old and has been working in and around the comics industry his entire life. To say that he saw the birth of comics as we know them and was instrumental in their creation is an understatement. Along with his partner, Jack Kirby, he co-created one character after another including the likes of Captain America. He was also the first editor at Timely Comics which would later become Marvel Comics, and he helped train Stan Lee.
Mr. Simon's story begins with his early work in the newspaper industry and his struggles to get into comics. His anecdotes about the people who were his friends and co-workers create a vivid picture of not just his life, but also of times past, turning things into a bit of a history lesson. There are scenes from The Depression, World War II, and even the Senate Subcommittee Hearings on Juvenile Delinquency all worked into his life in comics.
In addition to details that set the stage for the development of the modern comics, Mr. Simon shares how he has fought for creators' rights and ownership from the start and why he finds it so important to retain the copyrights for as much of his work as possible. He even sued Marvel over Captain America and proudly tells readers that, although he can't discuss the details of the settlement, it resulted in those comics now carrying the credit "created by Joe Simon and Jack Kirby."
An engaging story about a man and the comics he clearly loves, fans will enjoy reading how Mr. Simon breathed life into a fledgling industry and even today continues to earn new fans and inspire artists to create new heroes.

Pandora's Juicebox: The Making of a Geek
- 02.22.11
When I was a little girl, a box of Tang changed my life. I didn't want to try it at first – because like many things marketed to children in the 1980′s, it looked and smelled like toxic waste – but the clerk told me that astronauts drank it. And then he explained what astronauts were.
A while ago, I wrote about the incredible fortune 'Pandora's juicebox' bestowed upon me during that fateful breakfast:
Only three years old, yet she already had that ache. "I'll be an astronaut," she told the moon. Of course it was listening.
The rockets roaring in her mind mostly drowned out her dad's jibe and the clerk's derisive laugh.
Last week, I took my son to the grand re-opening of the Charles Hayden Planetarium at the Museum of Science in Boston. A few of the adults in line with us gave me odd looks – I assume they expected my preschooler to act up during the show and spoil their experience of 'Cosmic Collisions'. They obviously didn't know who they were looking at.
When the lights went down and the dome appeared to open above us onto the naked sky, Bastian gasped in my ear, "It feels like we're flying!" I swear I could smell Tang on his breath…
I can't help it; I'm ten times as old as I was when I first dreamed of going into space, and I still choke up whenever a camera zooms out to show the Earth in a field of stars. At the planetarium last week, I let the tears flow.
Now, it's unlikely that NASA will ever want me for a mission, but Tang made me a geek, time made me a geek mom, and technology lets me fly to the moon with my son whenever we've got a spare afternoon. And who knows what the future holds for my little stargazer?
Five, four, three, two, one…
"And then what?" she asked.
Only three years old, yet he already had that ache. "BLAST-OFF!!"

Job Training Program has 90 Percent Success Rate
NewsRadio 920 WHJJ and the Associated Press
WARWICK, R.I. (AP) — Rhode Island officials are touting the success of job training program for shipbuilders that has resulted in jobs for 90 percent of its graduates.
The New England Institute of Technology's eight-week shipbuilding, marine trades and advanced manufacturing program is funded in part by almost $3 million in state and federal grants. It is free to unemployed state residents who are over 18 and pass an initial screening process.
The Providence Journal reports that 60 students have so far completed the program. Many of them have been offered jobs by General Dynamics Electric Boat, which recently was awarded a $17.6 billion contract to build 10 Virginia-class attack submarines for the Navy.
School officials say the currently have enough money to continue the program through next fall.

I have never shot this weight bullet in my 30-30, however I according to other posts and the law of physics I can't see how it would be superior in any way to the 150 except velocity. Velocity in and of itself does not translate into superior penetration. I think that the heavier 150 gr slug would far and away be the choice for most hunters who seek reliable, consistant penetration, especially within the confines of the 30-30's effective range.
I believe Best Lever has done some fairly extensive research with lighter projectiles, perhaps he will weigh in with his opinion.

111 delegates and guest speakers assembled for the two day conference with the sole focus of recognising and preventing the trafficking of people within New Zealand and the wider Pacific: a national focus with global implications, as trafficking in people is a globalised profit-driven crime which leaves no country untouched.
The conference was hosted by The Salvation Army's Social Policy and Parliamentary Unit, ECPAT Child Alert New Zealand and the US Embassy, and drew together a diversity of people from within New Zealand, Australia and Fiji, including a significant number of staff from various government agencies.
The diversity and quality of the speakers, which included the Minister of Immigration Michael Woodhouse, Human Rights Commissioner David Rutherford, UN legal advisor Dr Anne T Gallagher AO, renowned activist Matt Friedman, and US Embassy Deputy Chief of Mission Marie Damour, ensured the conference maintained a high level of presentations and discussions.

Brain Circulation and Miami's future as a Start-Up City
Posted on February 11, 2013 by nina
Published by Beached Miami
Ahead of Start-Up City: Miami, I met with Florida, author of several influential books, including 2002′s The Rise Of The Creative Class, to discuss what Miami needs to do to transcend the (outdated) fun-and-sun stereotype and become a global ideas capital. Here is an edited transcript of our conversation.
To start, put the term "start-up" in context. Are you talking about a Silicon Valley-style tech industry?
Florida: When I wrote The Rise of the Creative Class and I identified these three Ts — technology, talent, and tolerance — I said cities that did all three had an economic edge. And I said that's Silicon Valley, Austin, Boston, Seattle, on and on. And I used Pittsburg as an example of a city that had great technology but lacked tolerance and talent. And I used Miami, in that book, as an example of a city that was tolerant in lifestyle but lacked technology.

text: September 11th Here's how Michigan taxpayers came to own the designs for the original World Trade Center By Rick Pluta • Sep 11, 2014 Joshua Schwimmer / Flickr The state of Michigan owns public parks, roads, buildings, and even some historic artifacts. Among those artifacts are the original architectural drawings of the World Trade Center. This is a story of how the state of Michigan – its taxpayers – came to own the works. Thousands of people visit the 9-11 Memorial in New York every day. Children play by the fountain that surrounds the footprint of what once were the world's tallest buildings. Some people take the time to read at least some of the names of the people who died here on 9-11. Big changes coming to police radio systems By Steve Carmody • Aug 18, 2014 Steve Carmody / Michigan Radio Police chiefs in Michigan are concerned that changes coming to the way the U.S. manages its broadcast spectrum may negatively affect their radio systems. The Federal Communications Commission hopes to auction off part of the broadcast spectrum next year to meet growing demand for personal electronic devices. The auction is expected to generate more than $20 billion dollars.

Emerald Pools
Trip Start Sep 20, 2010
39Trip End Oct 26, 2010
After surveying the canyon by shuttle yesterday we chose the Middle and Upper Emerald Pools Trail for today. The Lower Pools and Angel's Landing trails were both closed for repairs. We had heard about Angel's Landing from friends and it sounded both beautiful and challenging, very exposed with steep drop offs on both sides of the trail as it neared the "landing". George would have eagerly hiked it but I admit to feeling relieved that it was closed given my inclination to "high anxiety".
We accessed the pools trail across from the lodge and it climbed steadily but we were in the shade of the mountain. As we neared the middle pool we heard the squeals of children and passed a number of elementary school kids on their way down, at full speed and full volume, a field trip for some lucky kids but I did not envy the chaperones. I am happy to report our timing was perfect, when we arrived at the middle pool it was very quiet, peaceful in fact. The pools were not quite emerald but are reported to be at certain times of the year.
A little more climbing and a little scrambling over rocks and we reached the upper pool, set against the base of a sheer curved cliff on three sides of the pool and with what I can only describe as a sandy beach on the front side. This would be quite a refreshing retreat on a hot summer day.
We took our time going down and then enjoyed another delightful lunch at the lodge, this time on the large outdoor deck with some of Zion's magnificent crags across the way. Another day in paradise.

Wilkinson, a fan of Olive Garden, once told Italian couturier Roberto Cavalli that Olive Garden is much better than authentic Italian food and has listed on her MySpace page "the owner of Olive Garden" as "people she would like to meet."
The Olive Garden employees are featured in the Playboy.com pictorial are Brook, 28, a server from Idaho Falls, Idaho; Katie, 22, a server from Greensboro, N.C. (pictured); Allysa, 21, a server from Fort Meyers, Fla.; Amy, 23, a server from Arcadia, Calif.; Sarah, 19, a hostess from San Diego, Calif.; and Shannon, 22, a server from Panama City, Fla.
The models can be seen in lingerie on Playboy.com and nude shots and video can be seen on Playboy's subscription Cyber Club.
Playboy.com's "Girls of Olive Garden" model search is not affiliated with Olive Garden.
