Warren planner wins award for Kickemuit work
Warren's town planner is officially an award winner.
Caroline Wells was recently awarded the Blueways Stewardship Award from the Rhode Island Blueways Alliance, an organization dedicated to developing water "trail" networks linking Rhode Island's rivers, lakes and ponds to Narragansett Bay. Ms. Wells, who has sought to develop a kayak and canoe blueway along the upper Kickemuit River for more than a year, was given the award for her work and for helping out with the ExploreRI website. She did the website work on behalf of the Kickemuit River Council and the Warren Planning Board's Fred Massie, who knows the Kickemuit well. She received help from Mr. Massie, as well as Jane Harrison and Linda Brunini.
The Blueways Stewardship Award was created in 2010 to recognize individuals who exemplify dedication to the stewardship and conservation of Rhode Island's rivers, lakes and coastal waters, and those who have helped further water quality monitoring and protection, developed trails on water, promoted land use that protects waterways, or worked to make connections between watershed conservation and their community.
Past recipients the Rhode Island Audubon Society's Eugenia Marks and Frank Matta of the Blackstone River Watershed Council/Friends of the Blackstone.

Once upon a time, a very long time ago, before humans attempted to rule the earth, before a human was even born in fact, back in the time when the earth was made of blue butterflies, there was a very beautiful blue butterfly Queen, her name was Arion. Her particular skills were sky dancing, and she was admired by all the other butterflies for her grace and her ability to leave a trail of beautiful patterns in the sky as she danced. Now it came to pass that her best friend gave birth to another blue butterfly who grew up very strong and beautiful , graceful and clever. Her name was Asthena. So clever was Asthena she was able to not only imitate Queen Arion and her wonderful dances in the sky, but she was able to turn the trail of patterns into little golden balls of dust. All the other butterflies admired her so much and asked her to dance for them every day. This made Queen Arion jealous and she began to turn green with envy, and one day in a fit of rage and mad fluttering she turned Asthena white and banished her from the earth. Disagreeing with Queen Arion's actions, many of the other blue butterflies on earth became agitated and began an uprising, but Queen Arion was having none of it and she turned them all white and banished them all from the earth.Meanwhile Asthena flew in the dark away from the blue earth below and became afraid, but when she turned to see her beautiful blue earth one more time she saw lots of white butterflies coming towards her. Together they flew on in the darkness until they became tired and there they formed a new world, we call it the moon.Back on earth Queen Arion became sorry for what she had done, so she allowed the white butterflies to visit the earth at night, (in that way she wouldn't have to see them and feel even worse for what she had done) she also gave them a new name - moths. However not being able to see very well the moths rarely visited earth at night, that was until humans invented artificial light ...Part 1 of a 3 part series.

Niello Audi Sales Reviews

Niello Audi, Sacramento, CAWritten by djudnic on 11/30/11 10:05:36 AM PST Go back to Sales reviews
Recommend this dealer? Yes Purchased a vehicle from this dealer? Yes
My personal experience at this dealership was excellent. The staff were very professional. They were thoroughly familiar with every model as well as the differences in the year to year changes. I have never seen this at any other dearship over the years. They never "talked down" to me nor did anyone attempt to talk me into something in which I wasn't interested. It was really refreshing to just talk with people about what I wanted and have a good time. I enjoyed the fact that they acknowledged their competition yet so intelligently differentiated their product. The whole process was extraordinarily easy. I am stunned at how simple it can be to attain such a high quality car. The responsiveness and close contact the sales staff kept while waiting for the car to be built was very reassuring. I really apprieciated that no one there created some artificial state between them and myself like alot of dealership salesmen do. It was almost like they weren't trying to sell me at all but just dealt with me like a peer. I felt like they simply have no need to take advantage of anyone so a customer could be forthright about their desires in a car. No games. They seem to want people to respect them enough that they would at least recommend them even if they didn't puchase there. That's thinking in the long term and not on the quick sale. The facility, reception, model specialists, finance specialist, the efficient process were all impressively polished. It all went so smoothly. I wholeheartedly recommend visiting Niello Audi in Sacramento if you want to dispense with pressure or discomfort. I simply have never had such an enjoyable experience buying a car. Of course it helps that the actual car continues to blow my mind on a daily basis! I purchased a 2012 S4.

Originally posted on Fox Sports North | Last updated 3/4/13
MINNEAPOLIS As expected, neither Nikola Pekovic nor Andrei Kirilenko will play on Monday against Miami. Pekovic suffered an abdominal strain in the first quarter of Thursday's game in Los Angeles, Kirilenko a calf strain two nights before in Phoenix. Pekovic underwent an MRI, which coach Rick Adelman said did not reveal anything further. Both he and Kirilenko will be monitored throughout the week, and Adelman was leery to say he'd expect either to take the court this week. The Timberwolves play against Washington at home Wednesday, in Denver on Saturday, and back home against Dallas Sunday. Adelman will start Mickael Gelabale in Kirilenko's place and Greg Stiemsma in Pekovic's, just as he did in Portland. Doing so rather than inserting Dante Cunningham into the starting five, as he did against the Lakers, gives the Timberwolves more flexibility of the bench. (And yes, you read that right: A player who began the season playing in France and was on a 10-day contract in January will be most likely guarding LeBron James.) James, who banged his left knee on Sunday in New York, will play for the Heat. The odds are against them: The Heat have won 14 straight games, tying a franchise record, and they roll into Minnesota coming off an impressive comeback win over the Knicks Sunday. With the Timberwolves having only nine healthy players, imagining an upset win seems like a long shot, but Adelman stressed that he and his team can't approach the game in such a way. "There's always that situation where you come out and play great, and some of the other team is not playing so good," Adelman said. "What you've got to do is give yourself a chance to win in the fourth quarter. You can't get down. They're an awfully good team." In their past five games against the Heat, the Timberwolves have lost by an average of 15.4 points, losing each time. In addition, James has scored at least 24 points in each of his last eight games in Minnesota; he's played there nine times in his career, with Monday marking the 10th. James is averaging 29.8 points at the Target Center, the most of any opposing player at the arena all-time. That's a lot working against the Timberwolves, and it's nothing new. As much as Adelman might be resorting more and more to humor in recent days -- he invited any media member willing to guard James to sign a 10-hour contract on Monday -- the coach is obviously stressed by the downright ridiculous rash of injuries his team has seen this season. He discussed at length how difficult it is to keep morale up, complimenting his players -- "We have a great group of guys who've busted their tails are year," he said. "They just keep getting slapped around." -- despite their losing record. "I worry about with . . . the guys we have, too, we're worried about not having somebody else go down," Adelman said. "You're pushing them so far. But that's just the way it is. I think our guys are going to compete." Follow Joan Niesen on Twitter.

more votes than Dubya, then the person who won the election gets to be
> President. Oh, maybe that's the problem...
> Chick
Think back to 1993 when Gore's deciding vote imposed the largest tax
increase on Americans in history. Where do you think the supposed surplus
came from?
Do we need another liar in the white house? At least Clinton lied to try to
keep the truth from coming out. Gore quote "I accompanied James Lee Witt
down to Texas when those fires broke out" next day he admitted on good
morning america that he had been in the area at a different time. 79 year
old Winifred Skinner who had to collect discarded cans - Ms. Skinner is a
former union organizer who repeatedly refused financial help from her
wealthy son who lives on an 80-acre ranch. Gore pointed out that she drove
to a debate....Gore champaign staff arranged her appearance. Gore said that
in Sarasota a high school was so crowded there was not room for a science
class to sit down and implied it was a money problem. Real reason for
crowding - Principal Daniel Kennedy reported it was because lab equipment
worth $100,000 was taking up space in the classroom. Mr. Kennedy further
reported the school had some 900 computers, 600 Internet connections and an
85 acre campus. The school is one of the wealthiest in the country. Gore
tries to embellish himself by tying himself to historical events, "World War
I started in the Balkans and my uncle was a victim of poison gas there" His
uncle Reginald was gassed but in France not the Balkans.
Gore said that his mother-in-law paid three times more for arthritis drug
Lodine than the same meds issued for her dog. the was an example that came
from a Democratic Party position paper not from Gore's own life. TRUTH: 85%
of seniors use a generic version of the drug which is much cheaper that the
"Dog" version.
Some try to discredit Bush by trying to make him look dumb but check the
education of each candidate. I believe Gore lies about that also. Need to
go back and find my source.
How many are aware of the law sponsored by John McCain and Sen. Gore
himeself in 1992 that would impose sanctions on governments discovered to be
selling weapons to nations such as Iran that are tagged by the State Dept.
for sponsoring terrorism? Well it has come to light V.P. Gore signed a
secret agreement with Viktor S.Chernomyrdin , Russian prime minister, to
allow Russians to continue selling weapons to Iran until 1999 even after
the law was signed into law. Among the weapons was a super quiet Kilo-class
submarine that could threaten U.S. warships in the Persian Gulf. The 1999
deadline passed and Russia is still selling weapons to Iran. Later it was
also discovered that Gore and Chernomyrdin in a classified 1995 letter, the
prime minister informed the V.P. that they were helping Iran build and fuel
a nuclear reactor. Chernomyrdin's letter referred to a prior agreement
between them and insisted the information was not to be told to the U.S.
Congress. Mr. Gore withheld the information from the U.S. Congress and has
violated the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Act which requires the administration
to keep congressional oversight committees informed on nuclear proliferation
matters. The news media does a disservice to the American people by
withholding information and giving only half of the story taken out of
context. I believe if Americans were informed truthfully many might think
Yes, I am afraid of the outcome.

I'm not very comfy sharing my works. So this is me trying to open up. I'm only here coz the site was recommended. I love to read more than write My posts are pretty infrequent what with being saddled with exams and assignments and stuff. College can be hell a minute, and heaven the next!

No marks for guessing which vindictive dudette marked his test.... I am a typical tomboy at heart though most people are under the impression that I am a finicky girly girl. Or vice versa... I haven't been able to post anything for a very, very long time because of school.... last year, coaching classes, entrance exams...I'm a science student and the list is endless. Thankfully things have panned out well, but I haven't written for over a year and am quite rusty.

Herbs: A LOT More Than Flavor
Timeless Nutrition Tip
Use herbs in your diet in place of sugar, salt or fat to help provide a health benefit, especially for people with diabetes.
Herbs such as rosemary, parsley, tarragon, basil, thyme and dill are plants that contain phytochemicals and are currently being studied for cancer-fighting potential similar to ingredients found in fruits, vegetables and whole grains.
In addition, some herbs may contain antioxidants. Oregano and rosemary are herbs known to be high in antioxidants. Rosemary has also been used as a natural food preservative to help keep fats, oils and meat products from going rancid.
Other herbs with antioxidant properties include basil, marjoram, sage, thyme, spearmint and peppermint.
Easy Ways to Add Herbs to Foods You Eat
- Sprinkle pizza with oregano, basil, marjoram, thyme or parsley.
- Add a mixture of herbs (oregano, basil, and marjoram) to marinara sauce.
- Steam fresh vegetables with rosemary.
- Add chopped mint to fresh fruit.
- Mix herbs into a favorite casserole or salad for extra flavor.
- Make herbal tea using spearmint or peppermint.
- Top seafood with dill and parsley.

Most listings are in the $0's per square foot per year. The The Gables region is experiencing a decrease in rates. In the last 3 months, the median rate fell $16 per sqft per year. That's a 100% decrease in rent.
In the last 90 days, 1 listings have been made available, which means spaces might be leasing quickly. You'll want to be prepared to make an offer immediately. There aren't many listings below 2,000 square feet posted, so finding a space for a small business might be tough.
The standard measurement for office space in this area is around sqft. Most buildings in this market are approximately 2 stories. Most buildings in this area were built in 1989 and are Class B.

2Status of reprints
3How reprints are prepared
4Changes made under section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989
5List of amendments incorporated in this reprint (most recent first)
This is a reprint of the Hawke's Bay Earthquake Relief Funds Act 1931. The reprint incorporates all the amendments to the Act as at 1 July 2013, as specified in the list of amendments at the end of these notes.
Relevant provisions of any amending enactments that contain transitional, savings, or application provisions that cannot be compiled in the reprint are also included, after the principal enactment, in chronological order. For more information, see http://www.pco.parliament.govt.nz/reprints/ .
Under section 16D of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989, reprints are presumed to correctly state, as at the date of the reprint, the law enacted by the principal enactment and by the amendments to that enactment. This presumption applies even though editorial changes authorised by section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989 have been made in the reprint.
This presumption may be rebutted by producing the official volumes of statutes or statutory regulations in which the principal enactment and its amendments are contained.
A number of editorial conventions are followed in the preparation of reprints. For example, the enacting words are not included in Acts, and provisions that are repealed or revoked are omitted. For a detailed list of the editorial conventions, see http://www.pco.parliament.govt.nz/editorial-conventions/ or Part 8 of the Tables of New Zealand Acts and Ordinances and Statutory Regulations and Deemed Regulations in Force.
Section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989 authorises the making of editorial changes in a reprint as set out in sections 17D and 17E of that Act so that, to the extent permitted, the format and style of the reprinted enactment is consistent with current legislative drafting practice. Changes that would alter the effect of the legislation are not permitted.
A new format of legislation was introduced on 1 January 2000. Changes to legislative drafting style have also been made since 1997, and are ongoing. To the extent permitted by section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989, all legislation reprinted after 1 January 2000 is in the new format for legislation and reflects current drafting practice at the time of the reprint.
In outline, the editorial changes made in reprints under the authority of section 17C of the Acts and Regulations Publication Act 1989 are set out below, and they have been applied, where relevant, in the preparation of this reprint:
•omission of unnecessary referential words (such as "of this section" and "of this Act")
"of this section"
"of this Act"
•typeface and type size (Times Roman, generally in 11.5 point)
•layout of provisions, including:
•position of section headings (eg, the number and heading now appear above the section)
•format of definitions (eg, the defined term now appears in bold type, without quotation marks)
•format of dates (eg, a date formerly expressed as "the 1st day of January 1999" is now expressed as "1 January 1999")
"the 1st day of January 1999"
"1 January 1999"
•position of the date of assent (it now appears on the front page of each Act)
•punctuation (eg, colons are not used after definitions)
•Parts numbered with roman numerals are replaced with arabic numerals, and all cross-references are changed accordingly
•case and appearance of letters and words, including:
•format of headings (eg, headings where each word formerly appeared with an initial capital letter followed by small capital letters are amended so that the heading appears in bold, with only the first word (and any proper nouns) appearing with an initial capital letter)
•small capital letters in section and subsection references are now capital letters
•schedules are renumbered (eg, Schedule 1 replaces First Schedule), and all cross-references are changed accordingly
•running heads (the information that appears at the top of each page)
•format of two-column schedules of consequential amendments, and schedules of repeals (eg, they are rearranged into alphabetical order, rather than chronological).

Management Group Launches New Data Distribution Service
Website Serves as Resource Hub for DDS - Only Data
Connectivity Standard Able to Meet
Advanced Requirements of the Internet of Things
Needham, MA, August 05, 2015 -The Object
Management Group® (OMG®) today announced the launch of its
new Data Distribution Service™ (DDS™) Portal at http://portals.omg.org/dds.
The Portal provides a comprehensive set of information on
DDS, the proven Internet of Things (IoT) data connectivity
standard. The new Portal is focused on the needs of IoT
developers and replaces the previous DDS Portal with an
enhanced user-friendly interface and improved structure.
The Portal is designed as a resource hub for the DDS
community and provides access to detailed information
including: technical overview and benefits of using the DDS
standard, use-cases, listing of companies that are building
systems with DDS, directory of resources and vendors, news
and events, and links to the latest DDS-related
standardization work at the OMG.
DDS is a middleware protocol and API standard for
data-centric connectivity from the OMG. It integrates the
components of a system together, providing low-latency data
connectivity, extreme reliability, and a scalable
architecture that business and mission-critical IoT
applications need, resulting in smarter decisions, new
services, additional revenue streams, and reduced costs. DDS
simplifies the development, deployment, and management of
applications, thereby speeding time-to-market.
"DDS is a perfect fit for both the Industrial IoT
(IIoT) and large-scale Consumer IoT applications, such as
autonomous vehicles, industrial automation and smart
cities," said Dr. Richard Soley, Chairman and CEO, OMG.
"It is already well-proven in industries ranging from
smart transportation to healthcare to smart energy."
DDS enjoys an active and vibrant community continuously
working to extend its applicability. The new DDS Portal is
fully supported by the leading vendor implementers of the
DDS standard including PrismTech, Real-Time Innovations
(RTI) and Twin Oaks Computing.
"The IoT vision is about enabling organizations to
optimize the value of data through the creation of new
services and operational efficiencies," commented Keith
Steele, PrismTech Founder and OMG Board Director. He
continued, "The DDS specification from OMG is a key
international standard for IoT data connectivity, crucial
for enabling the realization of this vision. This new DDS
Portal, developed collaboratively among the key DDS vendors
and OMG, is a great step forward. I encourage everyone
interested in making IoT a success to get involved in the
DDS standards process."
"DDS is the standard that delivers the reliability,
performance, scalability, and security required for the
Industrial Internet of Things," said Stan Schneider,
CEO of RTI. "DDS can connect sensors to the cloud,
interoperate across vendors, and span industries. The
updated Portal, built cooperatively with the OMG and leading
vendors, provides advanced usability, technology
descriptions, and application use cases. The growing DDS
community now has a great starting place to learn about the
"One of the core challenges for Industrial and
Consumer IoT applications is achieving robust, reliable, and
secure data communications between heterogeneous devices.
DDS has been successfully connecting diverse computing nodes
in challenging environments for years," said Clark
Tucker, President and CEO of Twin Oaks Computing. "DDS
continues to be a relevant and crucial infrastructure
component in IoT systems because of the efforts of the OMG
to evolve the DDS standard and the efforts of the vendors to
keep pace with their DDS products. The OMG DDS Portal
provides a great resource for DDS novices and experts alike
to learn about the DDS standards and technologies."
Highlights of key features of DDS include:
OMG CEO Richard Soley added, "The Data Distribution
Service is a proven, bullet-proof, industrial-strength
solution for integrating real systems on the ground (and in
the air). With secure, transactional, high-performance
interoperable and portable implementations from multiple
vendors, DDS is the right solution for many systems
including the Industrial Internet of Things.OMG is proud to
release this new source of information and updates on DDS to
help organizations optimize their systems using DDS
About OMG
The Object Management Group® (OMG®) is an international,
open membership, not-for-profit technology standards
consortium. OMG Task Forces develop enterprise integration
standards for a wide range of technologies and an even wider
range of industries. OMG's modeling standards enable

A stunning building with hours worth of paintings to be seen. I enjoyed a wander around the National Gallery yesterday and saw painting that I had wanted to see for ages. It was worth seeing and the Gallery itself is completely majestic.

It's to wear at the end of the day when you come home and wash your face and tell the truth to yourself in the mirror even if you haven't done it all day. It's for under your sweater at the business meeting where you promise you will speak out instead of quietly nodding. It's for those flashes of ideas that you really need to pay attention to and value, whether they seem practical to your inner censor or not.
The world needs your brilliance. So join the club.

You know what? I'd do just that, take in some doughnuts.
I take suckers to the bank all the time...Toosie Pops. It's a big bank, but they know me. Just last week I took my Harley through the drive-through and suddenly realized that I forgot my wallet. As I announced that I forgotten my wallet, the lady working the next window popped up and said I know him, I'll take care of his business.
One time, where I get my shirts done, this little old black woman was sweating her rear end off at the ironer. I backed out and went two doors down and bought a planter of flowers and then headed back into the shop. The manager saw what I was doing and played along...I asked to see the lady who irons my shirts. He asked her to step to the counter to see this customer who asked for her. I'm know she thought she was going to get a complaint, but I simply told her that I had appreciated how nice she made my shirts look, and I gave her the flowers...she was beaming...it brought a tear to her eye...and I enjoyed every minute of it.
One time I was calling my dentist to double check my appointment for the afternoon. I asked about my appointment and they joked with me to come right down as they were having a party.
When I arrived, I brought suckers, party hats, those thing you blow through that unwind?...well, they laughed out loud.
I get great service at those places that I show my appreciation at, and it's fun to do.
Hey, are you still here? Go get those doughnuts delivered.
Stay armed...show your appreciation...stay safe!

What was it that so tugged the heartstrings about the news that doctors had successfully communicated with a man thought to be in a vegetative state? For me, it was partly that my husband had taken the best part of three days to regain consciousness after a major brain operation, so I was reminded of the chilling sense of what if ... But it was surely also the glorious simplicity that shone through the complexity of what the neurologists had done.
They had established, through brain scans, the pattern for "normal" responses to common experiences, then applied it to the seemingly comatose individual before them. The result – with the otherwise powerless patient told to think "tennis" for "yes" – calls into question judgements made hitherto about switching off life-support systems and looks set to change clinical practice in the future. It was all so elegant, so epoch-making, and so cheering. And so different from the scientific confusion into which we lay people increasingly find ourselves mired.
In the space of just a few weeks we have learned of doubts – significant and serious doubts – attending some of the data supporting the hypothesis that climate change is largely caused by human activity (and can therefore be reversed by human action, too). Aspersions have been cast on some of the research methods and findings, as well as the attitudes of some scientists, at the Institute for Climatic Research at the University of East Anglia.
Scarcely had we non-scientists registered that there might be problems with the data than the chairman of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, Dr Rajendra Pachauri, admitted that one of the most memorable forecasts for the malign effects of climate change – the melting of the Himalayan glaciers by 2035 – was wrong. Now maybe, to the real scientists and climate-change cognoscenti, such doubts and mistakes are mere details at the margins. But for us, the wider public, they are not. They are the eye-catching alarms that convinced us – or were used to convince us – that climate change was an urgent threat each and every one of us needed to tackle.
But it is not just climate change where supposed certainties seem to be dissolving. Or, indeed, even more confusingly, vice versa. It is only now, after 11 years, that Andrew Wakefield, the doctor who posited a causal link between the MMR vaccine and autism in some children, has been reprimanded by the General Medical Council; only now that the article that gave his theory credibility has been retracted by The Lancet. Why so long?
Then, earlier this week, a fundamental aspect of the way scientific research is validated was called into question. Some leading stem-cell scientists, the BBC reported, were challenging the fairness of the peer-review system, accusing some of the scientist-reviewers of blocking or delaying publication (and so qualification for funds) by rivals or researchers they disagreed with. One award-winning scientist is refusing to offer his research to Nature.
Deadly rivalry in any specialist field is nothing new, and academia is no more civilised than any other sphere. Nor is it the first time the peer-review system has been questioned. But all this leaves us non-scientists flailing. The trouble is, we think we can recognise honest advance for what it is. Like the brain experiment, it positively radiates authenticity and benefit. We get worried when arguments about data and methods and validation erupt around hypotheses that never rang quite as true as a self-appointed scientific establishment had pressed us to believe. Which, in fact, may be no bad thing.
A vivid reminder of the kind of politician we could do with today
One of the dubious privileges of being Washington correspondent for a British newspaper is the periodic embassy breakfast with a visiting minister. Only one of these full-English occasions sticks in my memory. The guest was Mo Mowlam, still in the Cabinet, but some time after – I think – she had been removed as Northern Ireland Secretary.
There was still a splendid turn-out, with – unusually for such political breakfasts – a reasonable gender balance. Americans, especially American women, adored her candour and upfront informality. That morning everyone somehow recognised that this was a farewell. The breakfast ended in emotional applause.
I recalled this when we had a straw poll in the office about Mo, the television drama screened last weekend. It was the female staff of a certain age who, slightly reluctantly, admitted to having seen it, before enthusing about Julie Walters' extraordinary performance in the title role. The drama attracted huge attention in advance, largely for its revelation that Mowlam had dissembled the gravity of her illness. Afterwards, it was treated, albeit generously, as just another TV programme.
The figures, though, say something else. Mo gave Channel 4 its highest audience for a drama for more than eight years, with 3.5 million viewers. Maybe the attraction was Walters, but I bet it was also Mo herself – a politician who was more popular with the voters than with her government or her party for being a one-off and a bit rough around the edges. The sort of politician, in other words, we could do with a lot more of.
Pluses and minuses of online government
Along, it transpires, with a good number of The Independent's letter-writers, I filed my tax return online a day or two before the 31 January deadline. And some of what struck our indignant correspondents struck me, too, not least the sometimes shaky acquaintance of www.gateway.gov.uk with English spelling and grammar. But you do feel, at least I feel, that its scribes try to make themselves comprehensible, even when they fall short.
So I couldn't decide whether to be amused or irritated when gateway declined my first attempt to enter my password, reminding me that it was a password I had myself selected. Failing, even then, to log in, I found something on my handwritten notes called "password". It had the desired effect. I'm pretty sure, though, that even at my most inventive, I would never have devised the 12-character combination of letters and digits that eventually let me in.
Talking of official websites, there is one I have come to know and – almost – love: the one for the DVLA. No longer do you have to trek to the Post Office, only to find that one key document is missing. The operation is joined up: your insurance and MoT are automatically attached. And, in a nice touch, a little car makes its way across the top of the form to chart your progress.
I recently overheard a young man you would not have described as either a City or a hi-tech type, telling his mate all about it. The conversation would have been perfect, uncut, as a promotional video for the DVLA. If only he had mentioned the little car.

FABIO CAPELLO plans a dramatic England shake-up to avoid a flop at next
summer's Euro 2012 finals.
The Three Lions need just a point against Montenegro next month to qualify.
But boss Capello believes some survivors from last year's World Cup are
carrying too much baggage after the disaster in South Africa.
That could spell the end for Frank Lampard, Gareth Barry, and possibly James
Milner — who all started in Tuesday's insipid 1-0 win over Wales.
Even Rio Ferdinand, who was injured just before the World Cup finals and was
not considered fit enough for the Wembley date with Wales, faces a fight for
his place.
Of the old guard, left-back Ashley Cole is sure to survive and Steven Gerrard
should be restored when the Liverpool midfielder recovers from his groin
Wayne Rooney is an obvious choice to continue to be the main man in attack and
skipper John Terry is favourite to retain the armband.
But the rest of Capello's new England will be built around Gary Cahill,
Stewart Downing, Ashley Young, Chris Smalling, Theo Walcott and Jack
Wilshere when he is fit.
Manchester United striker Danny Welbeck — another who missed Tuesday's game
through injury — is sure to be in the reckoning along with his Old Trafford
team-mates Phil Jones and Tom Cleverley.

How did the New Left uprising of the 1960s happen? What caused millions of young peoplemany of them affluent and college educatedto suddenly decide that American society needed to be completely overhauled?
In Smoking Typewriters, historian John McMillian shows that one answer to these questions can be found in the emergence of a dynamic underground press in the 1960s. Following the lead of papers like the Los Angeles Free Press, the East Village Other, and the Berkeley Barb, young people across the country launched hundreds of mimeographed pamphlets and flyers, small press magazines, and underground newspapers. New and cheap printing technologies had democratized the publishing process, and by the decade's end the combined circulation of underground papers stretched into the millions. Though not technically illegal, these papers were often genuinely subversive, and many who produced and sold themon street-corners, at poetry readings, gallery openings, and coffeehousesbecame targets of harassment from local and federal authorities. With writers who actively participated in the events they described, underground newspapers captured the zeitgeist of the '60s, speaking directly to their readers, and reflecting and magnifying the spirit of cultural and political protest. McMillian gives special attention to the ways underground newspapers fostered a sense of community and played a vital role in shaping the New Left's "movement culture." By putting the underground press at the forefront, McMillian underscores the degree to which the political energy of the 1960s emerged from the grassroots, rather than the national office of Students for a Democratic Society (SDS), which historians of the era typically highlight.
Deeply researched and eloquently written, Smoking Typewriters captures all the youthful idealism and vibrant tumult of the 1960s as it delivers a brilliant reappraisal of the origins and development of the New Left rebellion.
Editorial Reviews
An unusually thoughtful account of the in-your-face underground press of the 1960s and its role in fomenting a decade of youth revolt.
McMillian (History/Georgia State Univ.;co-editor: Protest Nation: Words that Inspired a Century of American Radicalism, 2010, etc.) immersed himself in Bell & Howell's Underground Press Collection on microfilm to write this readable, richly detailed study of the hundreds of anti-establishment 1960s newspapers—from theLos Angeles Free Press to Rag (Austin, Texas) and The Paper (East Lansing, Mich.)—that "educated, politicized and built communities among disaffected youths in every region of the country." Edited by young radicals, filled with heated prose and muckraking by reporters who were engaged in the events they covered and made possible by inexpensive new printing technologies, these brash, often amateurishly produced, grassroots publications helped unite revolutionaries and bohemians and played a seldom-acknowledged key role in fostering the protest culture of the '60s. Sympathetic but fair, McMillian points out the aesthetic and intellectual shortcomings of these often-salacious publications even as he traces their astonishing success at reflecting the democratic sensibilities of '60s youths. The author provides numerous sharp portraits: Art Kunkin, half-Marxist, half-hippie founder of theLA Free Press(the "Freep"), and his superior coverage of antiwar activities and the 1965 Watts riot;Ray Mungo and Marshall Bloom, founders of the Liberation News Service, which issued weekly packets of political news and analysis from an urban commune; and the legendary John Wilcock, a founder of the Underground Press Syndicate. The chapter on the papers' role in spreading rumors about getting high on "banana joints" is a hoot. In 1968, the FBI began compiling information on underground papers. Federal and local authorities busted underground journalists for obscenity or drugs; intimated the landlords, advertisers and printers; and hassled their street vendors. By decade's end, most underground papers ceased publication. In their wake, they left a bevy of lifestyle-heavy alternative publications like the Chicago Reader and Washington City Paper.
A welcome book on the '60s—a nostalgia trip for those who were there and a vivid work of history for anyone curious about the journalism that jolted a decade.
"A lucid new work by a promising young media historian, Georgia State University's John McMillan.... Suitable for scholars, graduate students, and aging hippies everywhere."
Journalism History
"The story that John McMillian tells in Smoking Typewriters and the lessons he implies are at once admonitory and inspirational; this is a work of serious scholarship that suggests both a call to resurgent action and a demand that people do better next time."
Roz Kaveney, Times Literary Supplement
"Exploring the variety of cultures that produced the papers as well as documenting how the papers reshaped their communities as they connected young people across the country, McMillian offers fascinating portraits of many colorful characters while also developing a temporal narrative tracing the rise and fall of the newspapers and the youth movement they chronicled....Those who teach the sixties, protest history, or journalism history are indebted to McMillian for providing a readable chronicle of this critical moment when words fired minds and were, themselves, a form of action." H-Net Reviews
"Readable, richly detailed study of the hundreds of anti-establishment 1960s newspapers.... A welcome book on the '60sa nostalgia trip for those who were there and a vivid work of history for anyone curious about the journalism that jolted a decade." Kirkus Reviews, starred review
"This tour d'horizon of the 60s underground press is a tour de force.... [A] compact, sharply-etched, and well-informed recollection of the rebellious young journalists whose voices and views breached the high walls of Mainstream Media long before the current Internet-savvy generation rushed in to finish off to what remains of Conventional-Wisdom-based reporting. Seen with fresh eyes by a talented young scholar, Smoking Typewriters tells an important-and entertaining-story about modern American culture and its endless upheavals." Richard Parker, Harvard University
"Thoroughly researched and well-written, this book will serve as the definitive treatment of the radical and alternative media of the 1960s. While telling his story, much of it both exciting and tragic, John McMillian confronts crucial issues-questions about objectivity and democratic activism-with verve and insight." Kevin Mattson, author of "What the Heck are You Up To, Mr. President?"
"John McMillian's meticulous scholarship delves into the rambunctious, chaotic world of the counterculture weeklies that sprang up around the country, and mostly imploded, in the era of Vietnam, rock, psychedelics and pot. Smoking Typewriters (the witty title was a gift from Allen Ginsberg) explores the ambitions and private demons of several leading figures in the alternative press, notably Ray Mungo, Marshall Bloom, and Tom Forcade. The author parses - no easy task - the dizzily fractured political and sexual rebellions promoted by the founders, writers and cartoonists of the cheaply produced, offset, raggedy papers that thumbed a collective nose at The Establishment as they grooved on their beleaguered 'underground' status. I think he gets it right. This book is an enlightening contribution to a nation that still has not come to terms with The Sixties." Susan Brownmiller, author of In Our Time: Memoir of a Revolution
"John McMillian's Smoking Typewriters is as vivid, subtle, and scrupulous as the '60s upheaval, in all its audacity and weirdness, deserves." Todd Gitlin, author of The Sixties: Years of Hope, Days of Rage
"The forgotten cradle of today's 'indymedia' and blogosphere was the Underground Press of the Sixties revolution, an autonomous journalistic culture of writers, critics, poets and political radicals who were the connecting tissue for our generation. John McMillian succeeds in bringing their story back to life in this well-researched history." Tom Hayden
"McMillian is at his critical best when he examines the history of the papers that led the youthful resistance. A solid and informed commentary on the New Left's independent press." Publishers Weekly
"Meticulously researched and richly written with humor, tragedy, and grace, this book will find a home on the shelves of those interested in the New Left movement, free press, the youth culture of the 1960s, and the history of the underground press in America." Library Journal
"[A] thrilling historical narrative.... McMillian brings this crucial story alive for a new generation." Austin American-Statesman
"[A] fast-moving narrative about the birth, the death, and the second life of the newspapers that were spawned by the upheavals of the 1960s and that were also spurred on by those upheavals.... McMillian puts readers in the cockpit of the era. He conjures up the radical style, the exuberant mood, and the bravado no mean feat given the fact that he wasn't there to live it himself. An historian, he looks back at the era with the benefit of hindsight and with a certain detachment, too, that enables him to tell the story without aiming to grind obvious ideological axes." The Rag Blog
"[An] outstanding new book.... Smoking Typewriters is a fascinating read and a meticulously well-researched book, describing the time in American history, the personalities, and the economics that allowed the alt-press to flourish.... Anyone interested in the role of media in modern history will want to read Smoking Typewriters."
Chattanooga Pulse
"Smoking Typewriters clearly illustrates what has changed, and what has stayed the same, making it a must-read for anyone who wants context on today's IT-fueled freedom fights." East Bay Express
"Meticulously researched and richly written with humor, tragedy, and grace." Library Journal
"[A] lively chronicle of the dedication, ecstasies, nuttiness, pathologies, and generational cockiness of the 1960s left that the decade's underground press reported and embodied." The American Prospect
"It's hard not to get swept up in this engaging history of a bygone era in publishing."
Time Out Chicago
"History books rarely speak as trenchantly to contemporary issues as McMillian's Smoking Typewriters: The Sixties Underground Press and the Rise of Alternative Media in America. As the cascading revolts in the Muslim world demonstrate, communication systems matter.... Smoking Typewriters is as much a history of the '60s as it is of the era's 'alternative media,' a phrase we hear a lot these days (if you replace 'alternative' with 'independent'). It often seems like there is nothing new to learn about the '60s, but McMillian provides a fresh history by putting the role of media at the center. He helps us better understand the decade by providing a window into the institutions this anti-institutional generation built." In These Times
"[An] amply researched, intelligent and admirably even-handed chronicle.... McMillian, much to his credit, never falls off the cliff in his general admiration for the radicals; he's careful to point out that people on either side of the aisle might see events differently without being exactly wrong or right. Also, he points out that underground leaders weren't without biases of their own.... [A] valuable book that connects the dots from then to now, from underground to alternative to blogosphere, filling in an important part of America's cultural history along the way." Free Times (Columbus, SC)
"There have been at least a gazillion histories written of the 1960s, but John McMillian's latest, Smoking Typewriters, ... is one of the best. Many chroniclers louse up their tales of freak history by neglecting the subject's inherently subversive humor. McMillian's academic background and meticulous research are impressive, but he also knows when to let readers have fun while they're getting smarter." High Times
"[B]risk and illuminating...Smoking Typewriters offers a compelling argument that the underground press was one of the New Left's most important counterinstitutions.... Thanks to adroit writing as well as engaging source material, Smoking Typewriters is a lively read that should be of strong interest to historians of the 1960s, journalism, and American political movements across a range of disciplines." Journal of American History
"McMillian has done something valuable. Smoking Typewriters is a diligent work of history, and its toggling between numerous close-ups and the occasional wide shots adds up to an impressive montage of the period." Dissent
"McMillian has produced a necessary work for those who would like to understand how the underground press contributed to the growth of the white youth rebellion in the 1960s; and he gives us, too, some sense of the texture of the times." David Barber, American Historical Review
