Twin Bomb Blasts Kill Dozens in Moscow
At least 38 commuters were killed at rush hour this morning in Moscow, after two female suicide bombers attacked the city's busy Metro system. More than 100 people were wounded in the attack.
Russian leaders have vowed hunt down those responsible for the attacks. President Dmitri Medvedev labelled the bombers "beasts" and vowed to "destroy" them.
The White House is calling today's twin suicide bombings in Moscow an "outrageous terrorist act." President Obama called his Russian counterpart to express his condolences and to say the U.S. is ready to help bring those responsible to justice.
The Associated Press reports that the first blast occurred just before 8 AM local time at the Lubyanka station underneath the offices of Russia's Federal Security Service. The second blast occurred 45 minutes later at the Park Kultury station.
Rebels from Caucasus, the region that includes Chechnya, are thought to be responsible for the blasts. Separatists have fought Russian forces there since the mid-'90s. It's Moscow's deadliest attack since 2004.
Back in New York, the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) says the agency has a "heightened security presence" due to the Moscow bombings. An MTA spokesperson said the beefed up security on New York City mass transit systems is being done as a precaution.
In the capitol, President Barack Obama has condemned the Moscow Metro attack, and has offered his condolences to the city's people. He said in a statement that the American people stand united with the people of Russia in opposition to violent extremism.
UPDATE SINCE THIS STORY WAS FIRST POSTED: This story has been updated to include an updated death count and the president's statement from the White House.

Villa Samuel
Villa Samuel in Parque del Ray, Lanzarote is a detached property and has its own walled garden and gated drive.
The large garden is at the front of the villa and has an extended patio area with lots of room around the electrically heated pool (8 x 4) for topping up tans! The villa is bright with a large lounge area, which has two comfortable settees, a coffee table and Sat TV with DVD player and FREE WiFi .
Patio doors lead to the outdoor dining area with table and six chairs, there is also an indoor dining area with four chairs . There are sun loungers for your sunbathing comfort! There is a fully fitted kitchen with window to the poolside. At the side of the kitchen is the solana 'drying area which houses the washing machine.
There is a large master bedroom with twin beds (together as a double) there are double fitted wardrobes and window to the side of the garden. The en suite bathroom is spacious with a corner shower.
The second bedroom has a single bed with an extra single guest bed underneath (two twin beds). The third bedroom has also two twin beds. All three bedrooms are bright and airy.
The Family bathroom is spacious with a walk in shower. The fourth room can be used as baby room (providing travel cot), games room or TV room.
Vertical blinds throughout help keep the villa nice and cool so you can chill out after a hard days sunbathing or a late night at one of Playa Blanca's many fabulous restaurants.
This villa is ideal for a great family Holiday!
A central portcullis arch leads you to the beautiful community of Parque Del Rey, which translates to Park of the King.
After the only central entrance, you can veer to the left or right which will lead you to one of the two exits of Parque Del Rey. Within the community of 70 villas, you will find a mix of holiday and locals homes.
They all have pretty gardens, and gated driveways, some with sea views, and all have stunning views of Montana Roja and the Rubicon Range of Mountains.
This tranquil totally flat landscape setting is certainly one to be enjoyed for couples and families alike. Although some of the villas have 2 easily negotiated garden steps. Whether you are pushing a buggy or being pushed in a chair it is a flat and easy route to the sea front and wheel/push chair friendly village of Playa Blanca.
If you exit left, you can walk in 8 minutes or so to the mini market Supermerloby, there you can buy holiday essentials, including fresh bread, fruit, vegetables and local vino.
Take a right, and the Cordoba Hotel has a supermarket, just 6 minutes or so away. You can use the facilities at the hotel too if you wish.
You will pass the bus stop at the end of the road, which is a reliable, regular service.
Otherwise, a taxi from Parque Del Rey to Hiperdino the large supermarket in the Village will cost a few euros. You can buy all you need here, including fresh fish, meat and in store baked bread.
Head back to your villa in Parque Del Rey, light your BBQ, have a swim while the charcoal is heating up. Stretch out on your sunbed and relax in the privacy of your walled garden.
If you take a right out of Parque Del Rey, and walk towards the sea, you will see some tennis courts with a well trodden path, alongside. Take this and in no time at all you will be at the harbour. A traditional pretty harbour, with the small fishing boats and by contrast the grand ferry boats too.
Punta Limones is the area you have walked to, and in the commercial center to your right, there are numerous bars, clubs and restaurants, including a wait for it…Chip shop! Popeyes serves great pub food, as does the Irish Anvil, entertainment is fabulous there too.
Stride out to the left to discover the pedestrianised shopping street of Playa Blanca, admire the sea views in-between the shops, restaurants and bars, whether it is Tapas or Tipple you are after, you will find it here!

Hi Marie,
Rain, rain & more rain! We are back in the UK. I am looking at photos of our months stay in Villa Samuel over Christmas & New Year.
We were worried about the comments on your website concerning the noise from the water park before we booked, it was just fine no problem, even in the school holiday time.
As on our previous stay at Parque Del Ray the villa was spotless, the welcome pack great, as was the welcome back smiles we received from both Neil the pool guy and the cleaners. By the end of the month it felt like home.
We love the local bus at the end of the main road that takes you right round Playa Blanca for just €1.35 also a taxi is under €4 into the village.
How wonderful NOT to have Wi Fi , it made sure we all had a good restful holiday, without the grandchildren spending all their spare time on the internet.
Thank you Maria for arranging for me to have our return boarding pass printed off.
Until next time
Kind regards

Last year we had such a lovely holiday at Villa Samuel we decided to come back this year for three weeks, Villa Samuel is on a nice quiet community area with some villas occupied by Spanish residents some English and some rented out as holiday villas.
We have had another lovely holiday here but I must say that the new water park within such close proximity has had an impact on our holiday. The loud repeated music, the noise, whistle blowing, screams as people go down the slides has made us this that next year we will probably go for an alternative villa. I must say that Villa Samuel is such a lovely villa lots of space, well kept gardens and pool, we do love visiting this villa but it is unfortunate that Paradise Island has buil the water park so close.

|Booking process with Lanzarote Lates was very straightfoward. We booked for the heated pool, one level villa, large garden and no car required. Directions were perfect. The villa was very clean and tidy. Whilst the villa was perfect I felt that the distance to town was further than I expected and a lot of the streets were very poorly lit if at all. The MVP Villa staff were very friendly and helpful. The office staff were also very helpful and efficent.

|The booking with Marie was excellent as always! We booked during our previous stay in July 2010. We have stayed in Villa Samuel before although Marie was very kind and showed us around some other complexes in Playa Blanca before we made our final decision. This was much appreciated!! The cleanliness and presentation always exceeds our expectations and the personal touches make it that more special. Thank you for the anniversary wishes and card, we really appreciated it! Villa Samuel has been much improved since our last visit two years ago. We love the heated pool which makes such a difference during the winter months. The new BBQ, "green" room and the high privacy wall between the neighbouring villa making the pool area nice and private. The team at MVP always provide a brilliant service. Neil (the pool cleaner) is a diamond with great knowledge of the island and places to eat. Villa Samuel is situated on a large corner plot with views of Fueteventura and with the addition of the new wall between the adjoining villa and the maturing garden shrubs, it offers a great deal of privacy around the pool area. A really nice villa! We are returning customers of Lanzarote Lates. This is our fifth trip and we are looking forward to our next visit. The best holiday rental company in Playa Blanca!

Thank you again for holiday in Villa Samuel in Playa Blanca (July 2010). The villa exceded our very high expectations, and the service we received throughout, from helping us choose the villa, the booking process, and during our stay in Lanzarote was excellent. The welcome touches such as wine and drinks in the fridge on our arrival were much appreciated. The on-site team struck just the right balance of making sure everything was right and that we were happy, without being intrusive in any way. A great service and excellent value for money.

The Winter Games has become a Kiwi success story.
The Audi Quattro Games, which was introduced in 2009, is established as one of the top five winter sports events in the world and the only one in the Southern Hemisphere.
In 2013, a record number of 41 nations have entered - including winter sports powerhouses such as the US, Canada, Switzerland, Austria, Australia, China, Japan as well as relative minnows Dominica, Venezuela, Belgium and British Virgin Islands.
It will stage six World Cups - two IPC alpine slaloms, FIS freestyle ski slopestyle and halfpipe plus FIS snowboard slopestyle and halfpipe. The freeski events were awarded platinum level sanctioning by the Association of Freeskiing Professionals (AFP) which put the Games on the same level as Winter X Games.
More than 750 athletes have entered across five sports - alpine skiing, freeskiing, snowboarding, cross-country skiing and curling.
For Kiwi winter sports fans it is a chance to watch the world's best athletes compete just six months before the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia.
Among them is snowboard legend and reigning Olympic halfpipe champion Shaun White (US) plus the entire medal podiums for men's and women's snowboard halfpipe at the Winter Olympics in Vancouver 2010.
Joining him are Gus Kenworthy (US), Jossi Wells (NZ) and Henrik Harlaut (Sweden) - the top three men freeskiers overall on the 2012/13 AFP World Tour - plus women's champion Tiril Sjstad Christiansen (Norway), Maddie Bowman (US), first in this season's AFP halfpipe world ranking, and Devin Logan (US) who won all three freeski gold medals at Winter Games NZ 2011.
The field also includes reigning paralympic gold medallist in alpine slalom, Adam Hall (NZ), and reigning Olympic gold medallist in cross-country skiing Nikita Kriukov (RUS) plus compatriot Alexei Petukhov with whom he won the sprint relay at the 2013 FIS cross-country skiing World Cup.
In true Kiwi spirit a small army of 400 volunteers will ensure the success of the Games.
For the first time in 2013 the Winter Games will be broadcasted on free-to-air TV in NZ. There will be daily highlights shows plus news features on TV3 and online.
Winter Games NZ chief executive Arthur Klap said the level of coverage in 2013 was unprecedented.
"Our partnerships with IMG Media and MediaWorks will give winter sport in New Zealand its highest ever profile and cement the Games' profile as one of the world's top five winter sports events," he said. "This is absolutely critical for building a permanent legacy for the Games in terms of assisting the development of young New Zealand athletes. Winter Games NZ provides them with world class competition."
There is hope that the Winter Games will build a lasting legacy in NZ. The organisers are working with Snow Sports New Zealand and other partners to develop young talent and build a legacy for winter sport in Otago and across New Zealand.

I was assigned to design a coat rack, so i incorporated the coat rack into something that i needed (a dresser). There are 5 drawers on this dresser, the bottom one being a pull down door for shoes of some sort. Also the coat rack bend is meant for you to lay out your outfit for the day while you shower this way everything is out and ready to wear.
This project is built with cherry, and bending ply.

Manhattan community rallies together during flood cleanup
MANHATTAN, Mont. - Floodwater in downtown Manhattan started Thursday night, quickly flooding multiple blocks of Main Street and the adjacent park with up to three feet of water on the street, and up to ten feet in basements.
Emergency crews got to work on Friday morning, using nine pumps to divert up to 12,000 gallons of water per minute, and finally had the street cleared by about 8 p.m.
On Saturday morning, Manhattan business owners could finally access their buildings, many of which had basements completely flooded.
"Amazement, shock, disbelief, would be what everybody initially thought," explained Doug Hamilton, who came to help his brother clear out his office after Friday's flooding.
Hamilton said nobody could have prepared for this, explaining "no one was even remotely concerned that Manhattan would flood."
But now, the community is rallying together to clear out and salvage what they can.
"We knew there was going to be a lot of cleanup and mess. So when we showed up, there were probably over 30 friends, clients, residents of Manhattan that were already here helping," he said.
And as the water in Main Street, Manhattan goes down, peoples' spirits are clearly coming up. Business owners explained it's easy to find the silver lining in this situation as so many community members have come out to help them clean up their businesses after the flood.
"It's a very bright day for us," said Deb Wheaton, owner of Gluten Free Prairie, a new bakery in town.
NBC Montana was there to see her building on Friday, completely flooded.
"We were just filled with despair when we thought it was a total loss," Wheaton said.
But on Saturday, volunteers helped her family pump water out of the basement. and she learned much of her expensive equipment can be salvaged.
"It's pretty amazing," she said. "It tells you when people can rally together, it's just the human spirit and what's possible."
Doug said the flood is a setback, but also a reminder of why he is a part of this community.
"[The volunteers] just showed up," he said. "Nobody asked them. They were here, they had trucks, they had trailers, they had skid steers. It was awesome."
And for Deb, a reminder that life is too short to be concerned about the future.
"I'm not worried about it," she said. "I'm going to live in this moment."
The Manhattan Bible Church has also not recovered from the flood.
Flood damage forced them to cancel services this weekend.
The church had to throw away all of carpeting in the basement.
Thankfully, most of the belongings in the basement were salvaged, but that is what is taking up space in the main sanctuary.
Pastor Randy Jones is encouraging their members to help out with the clean up efforts on Sunday instead of attending worship service.
"We won't be having services on Sunday," Jones said. "We emailed our folk and told them to worship wherever and then to help out whoever needs help with flood issues."
While community volunteers saved the day on Saturday, it is unclear at this point what government assistance Manhattan will receive.
If you would like to help out, you can give to the Manhattan Flood Benefit Fund set up at any Manhattan Bank branch.

Last week, my sweet daughter took me out to dinner for my birthday and Mother's day all kind of combined. We went to our favorite Italian restaurant and I chose what I always choose, Chicken Florentine. Chicken Florentine, light on the chicken and the Florentine, and heavy on the butter and cheese, just like I like it. However after having half of it for dinner and the other half for lunch the next day, my body was screaming for something a little less. A little less cheese. A little less butter.
So, I went searching for lightest salad I could find.
I found Honeydew and Prosciutto with Greens and Mint Vinaigrette in The Bon Appetit Cookbook: Fast Easy Freshin the first course section. Yes, it was supposed to be a first course, but it was just what I wanted. I served this with a glass of wine and slice of fresh baked bread. Heaven.
Now, if you don't have the book, (but you should SERIOUSLY), you can find the recipe online: Honeydew and Prosciutto with Greens and Mint Vinaigrette.
Make this. Really.
This will be my entry for Foodie Friday at Designs by Gollum!
This will be my entry for Cookbook Sundays!

Iranian Nobel laureate Shirin Ebadi decries human rights abuses in her homeland
Geneva: Iranian Nobel laureate Shirin Ebadi says the worsening human rights situation in her home country is "deteriorating rapidly."
She says the international community should continue to put pressure on the government in Tehran to stop abuses against opposition groups.
Ebadi has stayed outside of Iran since a day before the June elections after which hundreds of dissidents were arrested for protesting the results.
The 2003 Peace Prize winner spoke on Friday at the United Nations in Geneva ahead of Iran's appearance next week before the global body's Human Rights Council.
The review of Iran's record on Monday is expected to pit western countries and human rights groups against Tehran's allies on the 47-nation council.

2010 Primaries This Tuesday
Polling places will open at 6:00 a.m. and close at 9:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 14 for the 2010 general election primary ballots. To vote, you must go to your assigned Election District polling place, which is indicated on your voter registration card, or ask any election official at the polling site to look up your address in the street locator to ensure you are at the right poll site and election district. After you sign your name on the computer listing (poll list) of registered voters, a poll worker will issue you a ballot and direct you to a marking station.
Starting Tuesday the New York City Board of Elections will be implementing a new voting machine process. Voters will mark their choices on a paper ballot using a pen or ballot marking device, and will insert their marked ballot into a scanner.
The scanner will then tabulate the votes after the polls close on Election Day.
The new poll site voting system provides a verifiable paper record and allows all voters, including voters with disabilities, to vote privately and independently at their poll site.

Gun disposal law takes effect
RALEIGH -- The North Carolina General Assembly has never teemed with former law enforcement officers.
I suppose, after working for years in a profession where your life is literally on the line, most retired cops have little desire to face the figurative fire of holding public office. It also is not a profession where anyone gets rich, and running for political office can be an expensive proposition.
Still, the late Don East, who served in the state Senate for more than decade, had been a Winston-Salem police officer for 20 years. The late Ed Jones, who served terms in the House and Senate, was a 30-year veteran of the State Highway Patrol and had been police chief of Enfield.
Former state Rep. Joe Kiser had been sheriff of Lincoln County before spending more than a decade in the state House. Another former sheriff, Union County's Frank McGuirt, had a few years in the House after he retired.
One wonders what any of the four -- two Republicans and two Democrats -- might have thought about legislation approved, in bipartisan fashion, by the General Assembly that sets new rules for how law enforcement agencies get rid of guns confiscated in criminal investigations or found and unclaimed by their owners.
The law, which took effect Sept. 1, requires that functioning firearms either be sold at public auctions, used for training purposes, or transferred to a museum. Only those found to be unsafe or without legible serial numbers can be destroyed.
In the past, law enforcement agencies had the option to sell guns, but many chose to have county sheriffs destroy them instead.
A lot of police and sheriff's departments are only now figuring out how they are going to comply with the new law.
Some law enforcement leaders say the change is good and will allow them to have another source of money to pay for expenses, echoing the comments of legislators who promoted the change.
Others are less sure, saying that they will be forced to create new procedures and have yet to figure out exactly how they will work.
Jeff Welty, a criminal law expert at the UNC School of Government, has predicted that the law could leave some guns in legal limbo, citing those seized from someone subsequently convicted of a felony that disqualifies them from owning guns.
In that case, local law enforcement could not benefit from selling the guns. The state constitution requires that forfeitures, which is what guns seized as the result of a criminal case become, benefit the public schools.
But how much time and money is a local law enforcement agency going to throw at the process of having a federally-registered firearms dealer sell a gun at auction without any financial benefit to the agency?
The bottom line here is really simple: Who knows best how to handle seized firearms, the police and sheriffs who have been doing it for years or state legislators?
If legislators wanted to help law enforcement, they should have given them more options, not fewer.

GM's Plug-In Push
Don't tell General Motors (GM) Vice-President of Research and Development Larry Burns that the Chevy Volt plug-in gas electric hybrid vehicle it plans to launch is a marketing ploy to improve GM's brown image with consumers.
On the other hand, Burns admits that GM is spending SUV loads of money to make sure the Volt comes to market on time, and ahead of Toyota (TM), in 2010 in the hopes of changing the marketing nightmare the company faces. "No question, it is our intent to leapfrog Toyota in this technology," he says.
Coming from Behind
What marketing nightmare? GM has been unleashing the best vehicles it has ever produced. Quality is better than ever. Designs are being lauded. And critics are falling over themselves praising new versions of such previously dullard drives as the Chevy Malibu. Even a Buick, the Enclave SUV (BusinessWeek.com, 8/24/07), is drawing kudos, and GM can't make them fast enough to meet demand. But overall, GM sales are down almost 6% this year, compared with a drop of 2.5% for the industry through the first 10 months of the year.
Not only does GM's portfolio of brands have an awful time resonating on the East and West coasts, but research commissioned by the automaker spelled out in how little esteem cutting-edge customers hold GM. A survey cited by Burns showed that 70% of respondents think of GM as "part of the problem" when it comes to climate change and pollution, while 70% view Toyota as part of the solution. Moreover, consumers believe GM's brands have much lower quality scores than they really do, because of how poorly GM has marketed its brands over the years. "It's a huge hole to dig out of," says Burns.
But GM is showing signs of life in the arena of "green" image making that, if the company gets it right, could shed stardust on its whole brand portfolio. As GM and Toyota battle for superiority and market momentum with the next gas-saving technology—plug-in-hybrids—many analysts and engineers say GM may, for a change, have the advantage over Toyota. "GM has quietly closed the technology gap with Toyota and looks like it is pulling ahead in plug-ins," says Brett Smith, director of forecasting at the Center for Automotive Research (CAR) in Ann Arbor, Mich. (Read more about GM's successes in developing hybrid transmission technology.)
Changing Horses
Talk is cheap. But there is buzz in the industry's engineering and supplier community that GM's advantage is that it chose better battery technology than Toyota in the first place to develop its Chevy Volt plug-in car for sale by the end of 2010. Toyota has been focusing its battery development on cobalt oxide-based lithium-ion batteries, the same technology that's used in cell-phone and laptop batteries. But fires in laptop batteries earlier this year derailed optimism about their application in cars.
Meantime, GM has been pursuing a nano-phosphate-based battery with privately held battery technology company A123 Systems, in Watertown, Mass., whose technology is the kind used in lithium-ion batteries that drive cordless power tools. And it's this technology, which is not subject to fires and packs more power and battery life, that is emerging as the favored pathway for plug-ins. "There are a lot of problems with cobalt-oxide, including scaling it up for cars because of the cost and availability of cobalt," says Ann Marie Sastry, an engineering professor at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor.
Toyota, too, has been working with nano-phosphate as a hedge, but on a slower track than its cobalt-oxide program, which was in a joint-development project with Panasonic (MC). And GM is working with cobalt-oxide on a slower track for the same reason. But GM's nano-phosphate development is, according to supplier company sources working with Toyota, at least a year ahead of Toyota's. "All hell has been breaking loose at Toyota on its plug-in program for the last three months as it changes horses," says one supplier company executive working with Toyota.
Consumer Readiness
Toyota and Honda (HMC) have been uncharacteristically open in their criticism of GM's plug-in push. At the Tokyo Motor Show, Honda CEO Takeo Fukui said his company won't pursue plug-ins at all, because he feels they don't deliver enough environmental benefits. Toyota's project general manager in its hybrid vehicle system-engineering division, Yoshitaka Asakura, said he isn't even sure consumers want a plug-in, and that while Toyota is developing a plug-in Prius as a trial balloon, it is looking more for ways to expand its existing hybrid systems.
Honda's bearishness on plug-ins doesn't cloud the potential of the technology. Honda, while leading all auto companies operating in the U.S. in fuel economy, has proved to be especially tone-deaf in understanding the U.S. market for its vehicles. It launched the Insight hybrid around the same time as Toyota's Prius, but its size and unappealing styling made it a dud. The Civic hybrid has been a steady seller, but it is dropping its Accord hybrid (BusinessWeek.com, 11/19/07), which didn't sell at all and offered little fuel economy benefit over the nonhybrid Accord. Toyota, whose executives say they don't believe GM can get a battery small enough to fit in a car and have a 40-mile range, meanwhile, is heavily invested in its hybrid system and has the advantage over its rivals in passenger car hybrids.
Indeed, some believe the "wow" factor of getting more than 100 mpg could help plug-ins eclipse the popularity of hybrids. GM says the Volt technology will allow consumers to go up to 40 miles on battery power, after which the gas engine kicks on to recharge the battery while the driver continues. If a driver makes several short trips on battery power, the battery can simply be plugged in overnight to recharge. Many drivers could go weeks without gassing up. And electricity at night is cheaper than daytime recharging. Dr. Gary Vas, director of the University of Michigan Memorial Phoenix Energy Institute and a nuclear energy professor who is leading a study of plug-in vehicles, says the early indication on a study he is leading on the marketability of plug-ins "shows that consumers are more than ready to embrace it."
Toyota executives have said they believe the right model for plug-ins will enable drivers to go perhaps as much as eight miles on a charge before the gasoline power kicks on. University of Michigan's Sastry says such a conclusion may be dictated by the technology they have chosen, rather than consumer research. "I don't have any doubts that consumers will react very strongly to a 40-mile gas-free range," says Sastry.
Marketing Benefit
Consumer acceptance of the technology will depend a great deal on the price of the car, which GM insiders say will likely be between $25,000 and $30,000, and the final design. GM says it will build the Volt on the same engineering platform as the new Malibu. But it is a system GM can expand to other vehicles just as Toyota rolled out its hybrid system to five other Toyota and Lexus models.
GM engineers say the Volt and electric car program have "an open purse," meaning that when they need more money, they get it. A123 Systems Chief Executive David Vieau says GM's schedule for 2010 is "a risk" as far as using the nano-phosphate battery, but he believes they'll make it. In any case, GM is working with multiple supplier companies to give it the best chance. "But it's pretty clear GM will have an early advantage" when they start delivering cars. Robert Lutz, GM's chief product executive, says GM testers will be driving a prototype by this April.
When Toyota launched its first hybrids, it lost money for a few years on each one until the cost of the technology came down as sales volume went up. But the halo effect of the hybrid more than made up for it. The same internal study at GM that indicates consumers see the automaker as "part of the problem" also showed that the image of the Prius led car buyers to believe that Toyota's trucks and SUVs were about 25% more fuel efficient than they really are. Says GM's Burns: "We didn't understand the marketing benefit to the whole company that a hybrid would have, but Toyota schooled us on that."
The question is, does the student have what it takes to outsmart the teacher?

Campaign Begins to Name Birmingham Airport After Ozzy Osbourne
The man whose label signed Black Sabbath in the 1970s is leading a push to get Birmingham Airport named after Ozzy Osbourne. Jim Simpson, the head of Big Bear Music, told the Birmingham Mail that he wants to rename the airpoint The Ozzy Osbourne International Airport in honor of the metal frontman.
"I believe that there is a masterstroke that would instantly confound the cynics," said Simpson. "Just re-name our airport. How does The Ozzy Osbourne International Airport resonate? The message that would carry is instantly international, confident, powerful, unforgettable and says 'Hey World, we are proud of our own'. Ozzy might not always have been a paragon of virtue, but he is a genuine flesh and blood Brummie."
He added, "Before anyone launches into a "Liverpool got there first with a John Lennon Airport" retort we should remember that their airport is distinctly unimpressive, provincial and bears no comparison with ours."
Birmingham councillor Phillip Parkin responded to the campaign, saying, "It's an interesting idea and I've got an open mind but I think something like that would need to be consulted on fairly widely because it's a significant part of our infrastructure."

Does Adding Length To A Golf Shaft Always Add Distance To The Shot ?
BC John used the Ask Terry button to submit this question:
Q: I have never been able to hit driver well. Therefore, I use my 3-wood off the tee. I can usually hit the 3 wood 210-220 off the tee. What are your thoughts about making my 3 wood the same lenght as my driver (44 1/2 inches) and only using that off the tee ? Would that add 10-20 yards to my "drive." I would probably not be able to use the longer 3 wood off the deck, but I rarely hit the 3 wood well off the deck anyway. Thanks.
A: I commend your creativity, but think you will defeat the purpose by making your 3-wood driver length.
There are two reasons for difficulty hitting driver, and one of them is the length, probably more than the loft. The longer a club gets, the more unwieldy it becomes – that's simple geometry.
That's why most tour players are still favoring drivers in the 44-45" range, while most amateurs are trying to figure out how to control that length and longer.
Regarding making a 3-wood that much longer, you will also have trouble with the balance changing, as the swingweight will get quite heavy. But if you hit it well, you might experiment with adding ½" or so to see if it gives you more distance.
I had a rather eye-opening demonstration last week when I was in Virginia with one of our Certified WedgeFitters. He's been prescribing stiffer shafts for his golfers than most would think they could handle, and then managing trajectory with the loft.
I watched my partner, who's a 14 handicap player and doesn't hit it too far, have tremendous success with an X-shafted driver with 15 degrees of loft !!! Who would have thought that ? His accuracy was way better than he normally experiences, and the loft gave him the launch angle he needed. Distance was as good or better than ever.
To confirm that theory a bit, I just picked up a Sonartec NP-99 4-wood, which happened to have an X shaft in it (I play my woods at about 5.8 frequency). My intention was to have it re-shafted, but I'm killing this thing, and hitting it laser straight, so I'm not touching it.
My whole point here is that there are so many variables to distance and accuracy, one needs to proceed cautiously. But in general, you ability to hit the ball consistently is very much a function of shaft length.

lou says:
I totally disagree with the length of shaft, I read a recent article from Golf Digest that the latest tests conducted by a PGA source that over 400 golfers were tested from low HDCP's to High HDCP's were given various lenght shafts from 44" to 48" shafts for drivers.
The results were that the longer shafts all graphites 48" were longer and more consistant overall than the other shafts for majority of all players.
As a 6 HDCP and at 58 years young I recently went from a standard 45" to a 48" and I a as every bit consistant off the tee and about 10-15 yards longer than before, it made a believer out of me. I was always under the impression from years back that you would lose accuracy vs length, it's an old myth now.
With the new technology in shafts and various kick points available your losing distance with the standard shafts. I am considering going with a little longer shaft for my 3 wood.
wedgeguy says:
Well, Lou, if that is your experience, more power to you. Any golfer should swing the longest shaft they can still handle for accuracy. I haven't seen the magazine testing you refer to -- can you direct me to the exact issue of Golf Digest, because I'd sure like to read up on that. But you're the first I've ever seen that hit it as straight and solid with the longer shaft. I've seen it time and again that shortening the shaft produces great results in both distance and accuracy. And GolfSmith tested hundreds of golfers a few years ago at their Austin facility and found the optimum length driver for almost all golfers was just over 43".
What have you other golfers experienced?
Rfowler says:
tried increasing the lenght in my shaft to 46" this year up from 44" I gained 10-20 extra yeards off the tee and now hit the ball 300 - 350 meters however my golf game has gone to sh*t of the tee so switching back so i can keep it straight...
viet-cong-ban-nuoc says:
I think longer shaft for driver is longer, and if you get the right shaft, you could get more accuracy. I am 40 years old, began golf 7 years ago and a 10-handicap. I play a Nike SUNO stiff shaft and drive about 230-240 with a baby fade. I recently got a 50" Harrison Pro shaft X-stiff, installed to a SUMO head, totalled is 54". I've been at the range 4 times and I've never experienced anything like it before, and neither were my 6 friends. I've been hitting straight and/or slight draw consistently carry over 250-260, and that could mean a total of at least 270-280 easily. I am so happy for the results because this is the first time I tried something different. Try it, you will find your truth potential because you are the real driver of your driver. God Bless!
viet-cong-ban-nuoc says:
As long as you could handle the longer shaft, just take some practice, and you don't need to swing hard at all. I swing my standard Nike Sumo 100-108 mph, but the ball does not fly far, and the ball's flight or projectile is boring. With the longer shaft, my average scores of mid 80s will be lower and more fun. Definitely the longer drive will help me with all the par 4s - think about it - I could hit 7/8/9 irons on the second shot instead of 5/6 or hybrids, or even worse 5 wood. Check me out, Dongta at www.vietgolf.com. God Bless!

HARARE, (Xinhua): Zimbabwe is bracing for the worst food shortages in four years that one in every four Zimbabweans in rural areas are expected to need food support, a UN agency said Tuesday.
Citing a new study, the UN World Food Program (WFP) said an estimated 2.2 million people are to hit by hunger before next year's harvest season, the direst situation since early 2009 when about half of the nearly 13 million population needed food aid.
The current high levels of food insecurity are being attributed to various factors including adverse weather conditions, the unavailability and high cost of agricultural inputs such as seeds and fertilizers and projected high cereal prices due to the poor maize harvest.
The UN agency monitoring in rural markets has found grain prices 15 percent higher than this time last year.
"Many districts, particularly in the south, harvested very little and people are already trying to stretch out their dwindling food stocks," said WFP Country Director Sory Ouane.
Ouance said the WFP and its partners will provide regionally- procured cereals as well as imported vegetable oil and pulses. Distributions will be gradually scaled up from October until harvest time in March next year.

text: First, there were the Horrors, disciples of vintage vinyl who came of age in 2011 with their third album. Last year there was Toy, friends of the Horrors, whose long-haired guitars paid engaging tribute to their influences. Now along come Charlie Boyer and his Voyeurs, dedicated followers of the Velvet Underground and mid-70s New York. Their close cleaving to that sound might be derivative but rarely dull, due in some part to Edwyn Collins's shiny production. Starting with their first single I Watch You, there's enough vim on this debut to excuse a mid-album lull, where their attempts at mantric insistence grow a little leaden. Be Glamorous, meanwhile, is a perfect Hammond organ pop moment.

Monterey County DA reaches settlement with produce grower
SALINAS, Calif. - South County Packing, Inc. reached a settlement with Monterey County prosecutors in the unlawful shooting of two deer and four non-game birds.
South County Packing, Inc. operates Rava Ranches, a produce grower located in southern Monterey County illegally shot the animals in 2013 in response to perceived food safety concerns. That was a violation of the California Fish and Game Code and Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. The deer were killed out of season, using improper lead shotgun ammunition and without tags or permits. The birds also were killed using improper lead ammunition and were unlawfully possessed.
South County Packing has agreed to pay a $20,000 settlement, which includes civil penalties, costs and a $3,000 supplemental environment project. That fee was awarded to the Monterey County Fish and Wildlife Propagation Fund for the Monterey County Fish and Game Advisory Commission. The money will be used to provide education related to wildlife and resource management.
The company also agreed to implement policies to prevent these types of incidents from occurring again, and a permanent injunction was issued to require the company to comply with Fish and Wildlife-related laws and regulations.

April 29, 2013
PARK RIDGE, Ill. -- The Big Ten Conference office announced today (Monday, April 29) that sophomore catcher Lauren Sweet (Corona, Calif./Santiago) of the University of Michigan softball team won the Big Ten Player of the Week award. It is the first Player of the Week award for Sweet and second conference honor of her career (Freshman of the Week on March 26, 2012).
The catcher batted .857 (6-for-7) in a three-game series against No. 20 Nebraska, and she reached base in nine out of her 10 plate appearances by walking three times. Sweet hit a home run in the series opener and finale on her way to knocking in six runs.
In game two, a 5-3 Michigan win, Sweet smacked the game-winning hit. Her two-run single in the seventh inning broke a 3-3 tie and ensured U-M's comeback win. That hit was part of a 3-for-4 day for Sweet.
During Michigan's 19 Big Ten Conference games, Sweet is batting .468 (22-for-47) with six home runs and 27 runs batted in. She is also perfect in the field on 111 chances.
Sweet becomes the second U-M player to earn Player of the Week honors following two citations for freshman Sierra Romero (Murrieta, Calif./Vista Murrieta), who won it March 25 and April 8.
The Wolverines conclude the regular season with three-game series beginning Friday (May 3) against Northwestern at the Wilpon Complex. The game is slated to begin at 6 p.m. Michigan will wear pink jerseys to raise awareness for breast cancer research.

Listen, Protect, Connect - Responding to Trauma and Creating Community Resilience
Mental Health Association of New York City
Friday, March 15, 2013 from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM (EDT)
Event Details
Listen, Protect, Connect: Responding to Trauma and Creating Community Resilience
A workshop for DYCD Community Providers
DYCD and its community of providers have expressed ongoing concerns about the impact of multiple forms of trauma (including community and interpersonal violence as well as large scale disasters) on the lives of the individuals, youth and families they serve. The impacts of Hurricane Sandy as well as other recent acts of mass violence have created an even greater sense of urgency to assist our communities in responding to localized trauma as well as catastrophic incidents. To this end, MHA-NYC will be working with DYCD and its providers to help you respond most effectively to these events.
Listen, Protect, Connect (LPC) is a psychological first aid (PFA) model that was developed specifically for use by community members to enhance resilience. Listen, Protect and Connect is helps to ensure that non-mental health responders have the skills and confidence to intervene with families, children, individuals and communities in the aftermath of traumatic events, including both catastrophic events as well as more local traumas such as community violence. This model, when used by responders, can build community resiliency for community disaster victims and responder to responder peer support.
In this training, participants will receive training on the Listen, Protect, and Connect PFA model. By the end of this session, participants will be able to apply and use Listen, Protect and Connect Psychological First Aid in their daily lives and in disaster response with patients, family members and other responders.
- Explain how traumatic events impact children, families, individuals and communities in both the short and long-term.
- Understand and explain how Listen, Protect and Connect can be used in their work as community providers.
- Improve ability to respond sensitively and appropriately as traumatic events are occurring (and in the aftermath) through the application of the Listen, Protect and Connect Psychological First Aid model.
- Increase knowledge and access to existing information and connections to referral resources for mental health services and supports as needed.
Please contact Susan Grundberg (firstname.lastname@example.com) with any questions.

An interesting discovery in the last two years in the field of mathematical physics has been the exceptional Laguerre and Jacobi polynomials. Unlike the well-known classical orthogonal polynomials which start with constant terms, these new polynomials have the lowest degree ,…, and yet they form complete sets with respect to some positive-definite measure. In this paper, we study one important aspect of these new polynomials, namely, the behaviors of their zeros as some parameters of the Hamiltonians change. Most results are of heuristic character derived by numerical analysis.
