I wish I had some pictures to upload, but I got caught in a snow storm on my way to see you in Detroit. It was a huge disappointment, especially since I love the new album very much. I hope you come back to Michigan (or Toronto) soon Keane!

I was getting the same error while trying to upgrade to 2.6.34 kernel on VMWare. The odd thing is that I did not get this error doing the same thing on Virtualbox.
Anyways, the error, at least in my case, stemmed from it being unable to unpack into /lib/firmware/ for some reason. Checked and for previous kernel there was a directory for /lib/firmware-184.108.40.206 where for the new kernel there was a link /lib/firmware -> firmware-2.6.34 problem was there was not a directory for firmware-2.6.34. I created the directory /lib/firmware-2.6.34 and, so far, all seems to be working correctly.

Hello All, I hope someone here can help me. To start off everything thing works fine as a live boot from the usb stick. Upon installing to hard disk drive via the installer everything appeared to be fine but was not. I did not have any use of my mouse either the built in mouse pad nor a usb mouse. Not to mention all of my other usb attachments cellular modem, keyboards etc. So i i rebooted looking for any errors during boot and the only error is as follows and it is output multiple times during boot up.
Fatal: can not open /lib/modules/2.6.31-14-generic/modules.dep.tmp no such file or directory.
I have installed multiple times. I have also searched around on google but all i have found was people that have not had any problems installing on my computer. So if anyone knows a solution or alternative install method i would appreciate it.
Thank you.

I get some all the time so I don't know what your talking about.
Another one of these world class surveys.
I am sure 99% of employers require you to wear shoes (and many of those closed toed). Would these same people rather get fired (or forced to take the week off)? I think not... This survey (like most re: iPhone) means a whole lot of nothing.
I had sex with a chic that owned a Palm Pre. Best sex I ever had. In a close 2nd was one that owned a Motorola Razr. If that makes me part of the 17% of the un-cool crowd I'll gladly accept that for what I got in return. Just goes to show how stupid someone would be to turn down a potential fun time because of the type of phone someone has.
And while 40% of iPhone owners would go without shoes for a week, I bet 100% of those 40% would never make that mistake again and would rather put their phone in a meat grinder than go through everyday doings without shoes for a week.
I went on a 5 day cruise last week and I must say it was kinda weird not having my apple toys, but I made it the whole week just fine. Had plenty of lovin with the wifey also, but I can see what the writer is trying to say. These mobile devices do consume alot of our day to day time.

The problem here doesn't lie in the fact that 32bit is better than 64bit, obviously anyone who has a brain or two would say 64bit is better than 32bit because of the higher number.
The real problem here is that there are lacking driver/software support. Unless if you want to convert all 32bit driver/software to 64bit you can but I can guarentee you it'll be a big job in which I am sure nobody dares to do singlehandedly.
A car fitted with bigger capacity does not necessarily mean swapping engine and/or its internals. It also means any other running gear that transfer's the engine power onto actual wheel/s may also need upgrading in order to handle the extra load. A 64bit leap from 32bit leap is a very big leap. Its not impossible, just like swapping the car's engine + internals to a bigger capacity but its alot of work.
Thorin: I agree, but I'm making a point here that people always expect/demand better yet they fail to see the basics. 64bit is still too young before we will see backtrack to be running on 64bit.

"This is one of the most special and enjoyable weeks of
the school year because it celebrates what a liberal arts college
is all about -- the life of the mind," Luckey said. "The quality of
undergraduate research being done on campus is so impressive right
now, and that is reflected in the outstanding graduate and
professional schools that have admitted our students this
At the Founders' Day Dinner, Luckey plans to talk about
the college's "phenomenal growth" over the last decade. LWC's
enrollment has increased by 69 percent to its record 2,677; faculty
has grown by 93 percent to its record 114; more than 300,000 square
feet of academic and residential space have been added; and
residential student population has blossomed to its current level
of 1,099.
"In many ways, this isn't even the same college it was 10
years ago," Luckey said. "You don't always see the grass grow, but
when you look back on it over a period of time, it's a truly
remarkable story."

It sounds silly but after a year of using wireless, I observed many often changes in the recption while still not moving from my room!
When its rainy its less signals than in other times... sometimes I receive plenty of signals, sometimes not!
Sometimes by moving like 1 meter away I have better signals and so on!!
weird, i'd like to have a tool to mesure exatcly theses!!

Odd-Even Rationing, Exclusive Fueling for Medical Personnel to Conclude
Trenton, NJ – Governor Chris Christie today announced that, with the progress made in power restoration and fuel delivery efforts, New Jersey will return to pre-Sandy fueling practices for gas stations, medical professionals, and first responders. Effective 6:00 a.m. Tuesday, odd-even rationing will conclude in the 12 counties previously effected, Bergen, Essex, Hudson, Hunterdon, Middlesex, Morris, Monmouth, Passaic, Somerset, Sussex, Union, and Warren. Also effective at 6:00 a.m. tomorrow, medical personnel will return to purchasing at traditional fuel retailers, rather than at specialized Department of Transportation locations. First responders will be permitted to continue fueling at these locations, until otherwise noticed.
"The odd-even fuel rationing system was successful over the past 10 days, creating order and easing customer lines at our gas stations and helping reduce additional anxiety of New Jerseyans through a difficult period," said Governor Christie. "This would not have been possible without the great work and efforts of first responders, private businesses, state and local governmental leaders, and all citizens of New Jersey. I thank them for that work and our ability to return to pre-Sandy fueling practices, another important step in returning to normalcy in the aftermath of the storm."
Odd-even fueling restrictions, provided for in Executive Order 108, had been in place since noon on November 3.

I'm running Backtrack 5 R3 and installed konsole command. When I run the konsole command I get this error:
QMetaObject::invokeMethod: No such method Konsole::Application::loadCommandLineOptionsForNew Instance()
I have already google it and did my own research and it is a known bug which is already fixed:
The problem is that I wasn't able to find the file that caused the bug in Backtrack.
One more thing, to the administrators, I have been trying to contact you because I can't post anything from my original account which is "Distorchion", it says that I don't have permissions to post threads and I've been a member since last year. I had to create this account to post this bug.

Hello everybody,
I just got my new Asus ROG G55VW-S1025D and installed BackTrack 5 R3 x64 as the only OS (I will use the laptop mainly for pen-testing and other sysadmin stuff) ... The laptop specs are as follows :
From the ground up there are some issues that I encountered (Remember ...this is a clean install with the updates available on 27.11.2012):Code:G55VW-S1025D Display: 15.6" 1920x1080 60Hz Matte Intel Core i7-3610QM (2.30GHz, 1600MHz, 6MB), Video nVidia GeForce GTX660M 2GB GDDR5, RAM 8GB DDR3 1600MHz (2x4GB, 2 sloturi libere), HDD 750GB 7.200rpm, SuperMulti DL DVD+/-RW, Card Reader 3-1 (SD/MMC/MS), Speakers Sonic Master, HD webcam, LAN 10/100/1000, WLAN b/g/n, no Modem, Bluetooth 4.0, no Finger Print Reader, Ports: 4xUSB3.0/1xHDMI/1xRJ45/1xVGA/1xMic/1xHeadphone/1xmini Display Port
*** Everything will be done as root or you can add "sudo" in front of every command line except the commented ones (between /*...*/)***
1. Update Backtrack
2. nVidia Driver Instalation ():Code:/* Update Backtrack*/ apt-get update apt-get upgrade apt-get dist-upgrade
The first thing you have to to is to logout or close the Xorg server and then:
And just follow the instructions on screen to finish the installation...then just reboot and everything will work !Code:wget uk.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86_64/310.19/NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-310.19.run /* Download the nVidia GTX660M driver(or go to the nVidia website and download the driver you need or a newer version of the driver)*/ chmod +X NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-310.19.run /* Make the installation file executable*/ ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-310.19.run /* Start the installation*/
3. Wireless NIC (Network Internet Controller)
As you probably already noticed you can't find anywhere (in the online specs) the model/version/producer of the wireless controller and at the first boot after installation if you run "ifconfig" or "iwconfig" you wont find any wireless adapter! Only in "lspci" it is shown as "Network controller: Intel Corporation Device 0887 (rev c4)" !! To work around this issue you have to do as follows:
After the Reboot open a console and run "ifconfig" or "iwconfig" and your Wireless NIC should appear on the list (notice the wlan0 ? that is my network controller wifi interface )Code:wget http://www.orbit-lab.org/kernel/compat-wireless-3-stable/v3.6/compat-wireless-3.6.8-1.tar.bz2 /*Download the latest Compat Drivers*/ bunzip2 compat-wireless-3.6.8-1.tar.bz2 && tar xvf compat-wireless-3.6.8-1.tar /*Extract the files*/ cd compat-wireless-3.6.8-1 && make && make install /*Install the drivers*/ wget http://distfiles.exherbo.org/distfiles/iwlwifi-2030-ucode-188.8.131.52.tgz /* Download iwlwifi-2030-ucode-188.8.131.52.tgz */ tar xvf iwlwifi-2030-ucode-188.8.131.52.tgz /* Extract the files from the archive */ cd iwlwifi-2030-ucode-220.127.116.11 /* Go to the folder */ mv * /lib/firmware/ /* Move all the files into /lib/firmware */ reboot
Sample Output :
Next you will have to open Wicd Network Manager (default in Backtrack) go to Preferences and at the Wireless Interface ad "wlan0" (or what other interface you have) !! Reboot and now your wifi should work !!Code:wlan0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx UP BROADCAST MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B)
Now ... the Aircrack tools "work" after this but at first glance:
- there is no channel hopping ... the channel is fixed on channel 1 even if you specify --cswitch (I will have to investigate further but i don`t have the time now)
- didn't test to see if injection and everything else works But I will asap !
4. Illuminated Keyboard and other Fn+Fx keys To make it work Do this:
Code:git clone git://git.iksaif.net/acpi4asus-dkms.git cd acpi4asus-dkms make make install rebootthen :Get the archive at http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.p...6#post12054636 (ubuntu forums account + minimum of 50 posts required) or http://markmail.org/message/idvl6s27r26xzorb (no account required)
Note: there is perhaps more suitable place to get the asus-wmi kernel module sources, the patch and the dkms conf file
extract the archive, and then extract the .deb and get the sources inside (asus-wmi.c is already patched with above patch):
replace 3.4.6-1-ARCH by your output for uname -rCode:# cp -a usr/src/asus-wmi-0.2 /usr/src/ # cd /usr/src/ # dkms add -m asus-wmi -v 0.2 # dkms built -m asus-wmi -v 0.2 -k 3.4.6-1-ARCH # dkms status # dkms install -m asus-wmi -v 0.2 -k 3.4.6-1-ARCH # dkms status
Actually all you have to do is to install acpi4asus-master ... if it doesn't work take the steps above !Code:cp patch.patch /usr/src/linux/ cd /usr/src/linux/ patch -p1 < patch.patch reboot
keyboard backlight script
In the same style that for screen backlight. As root, create the file /usr/local/share/kbd_backlight:
Allow file to be executed :Code:#!/bin/bash path="/sys/class/leds/asus::kbd_backlight" #path="/sys/class/leds/asus\:\:kbd_backlight" # max should be 3 max=$(cat ${path}/max_brightness) # step: represent the difference between previous and next brightness step=1 previous=$(cat ${path}/brightness) function commit { if [[ $1 = [0-9]* ]] then if [[ $1 -gt $max ]] then next=$max elif [[ $1 -lt 0 ]] then next=0 else next=$1 fi echo $next >> ${path}/brightness exit 0 else exit 1 fi } case "$1" in up) commit $(($previous + $step)) ;; down) commit $(($previous - $step)) ;; max) commit $max ;; on) $0 max ;; off) commit 0 ;; show) echo $previous ;; night) commit 1 ;; allowusers) # Allow members of users group to change brightness sudo chgrp users ${path}/brightness sudo chmod g+w ${path}/brightness ;; disallowusers) # Allow members of users group to change brightness sudo chgrp root ${path}/brightness sudo chmod g-w ${path}/brightness ;; *) commit $1 esac exit 0
Allow users to change brightness at each boot :Code:# chmod +x /usr/local/share/kbd_backlight
Adding to .zshrc or .bashrc :Code:# echo "/bin/bash /usr/local/share/kbd_backlight allowusers" >> /etc/rc.local
allows to easy toggle backlight in terminal :Code:alias -g "kbd_backlight"="/bin/bash /usr/local/share/kbd_backlight"
5. Sound volume is low and adjusting the volume doesn't work + trying to access Sound Preferences hangs at "waiting for audio server" (or something like that) .Code:$ kbd_backlight up $ kbd_backlight down $ kbd_backlight max $ kbd_backlight off $ kbd_backlight night $ kbd_backlight 2 $ kbd_backlight show
This can be solved by installing the ALSA Pulse plugin, the PulseAudio daemons and the PulseAudio tools.
(as root)
Next go to Sound Preferences/Hardware/ , select Internal Audio and at the Profiles tab select Analog Stereo Duplex !Code:apt-get install libasound2-plugins "pulseaudio-*" paman padevchooser paprefs pavucontrol pavumeter
Next go to Output, select Internal Audio Analog Stereo and down at Connector select Analog Speakers and close the window !
Go to System/Preferences/Startup Applications/Add and add this command "/usr/bin/pulseaudio"
If the microphone from the laptop doesn't work go to Sound Preferences/Hardware/ , select Input and at Connector select Microphone 2 and close the window!
I`ll get back on this thread asap and as i discover other problems/solutions I will post them here !
Any questions are welcome and please don`t be a troll !!

The staff was fantastic. Friendly, helpful and genuinely concerned for our needs. The room was clean and nice size. It is also very quiet. Could have used a comfy Chair to sit and read in and a small table or night stand on both sides of the bed. not a big deal, just would have been nice.
Lobby has style & charm - impressive as you enter. Designed to curl up with a great book! Charming, helpful & polite staff. Fabulous food with ambiance to boot. Lovely riverfront view. Pleasantly more than we were expecting. Close walk to riverfront dining/museums/shops. Fridge/microwave a bonus in room. Would definitely recommend. As a mom, I felt safe staying w my son during a college tour visit. Occasional minor hall noise from other guests in PM, although we were directly across from ice/sodas & elevator, so not entirely surprising. Otherwise, all else was great.
Surprised at how nice it was - everything. .the room, the staff, the cocktails, the breakfast, and the price.
Clean I felt very safe as a woman traveling alone. Very quiet. My room faced east and only had wooden blinds that didn't shut all the way. I had the vapor lights from the parking lot across the street all night and the sun in the morning.
Our group of six (3 couples) enjoyed our one night stay to see a show at the Civic Center. We liked: Welcoming comfy lobby Free shuttle Frig in the room Decorating in the rooms Breakfast and flavored coffee 2 complimentary drink tickets Comfy bed, linens and pillows Close parking Helpful front desk staff I'll let you know if I figure out something.
I had to leave because they had no wifi and I needed to work. They then charged my card anyway. Now I have to deal with that.
Nice breakfast-made to order omelette. Romm was kind of small. Phone did not work. Sink drained slowly.
The most comfortable and consistently quality stay in Peoria.
Location Staff was not helpful at all. Rooms booked were not what I received Rooms lacked enough hangers
Great value using Kayak, the rate was just slightly higher than neighboring value hotels. Located conveniently in downtown Peoria, it was easily accessible. Excellent staff was friendly and efficient during check-in. Room was furnished with modern fixtures and decoration. Despite the beautiful historic quality of the hotel, nothing felt outdated or worn out. No mini fridge or microwave provided in room, and no free continental breakfast.
Ever clean friendly staff comfy bed and chairs in room No mini fridge
Staff was very friendly. Lobby was modern and comforting. Location can't be beat for anything downtown. No mini fridge in room. Parking deck remote from lobby but only temporary due to construction.
Room was nice and clean. Staff was friendly. Room was too cold. Adjusting the thermostat only changed it from cold to warm air, neither of which was ideal.
Convenient downtown location with reasonable proximity to most points of interest by walk or quick cab ride. Clean and modern facilities. Hot breakfast for free--not gourmet but hey, it beats any cold continental breakfast or having to schlep to some restaurant and pay them $10 to feed you. Free WiFi, again a value compared to some of the other hotels nearby. Comfortably beds, couch and desk area. Kitchen suite was sweet. Robin, at the reception desk, was very friendly and helpful.

Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
Hey Tony,
I was relocated by my company down here to Panama City Beach Florida in February of last year, I didn't really have a choice but living at the beach isn't so bad. Pro football here in NW Florida kinda takes a back seat to the colleges (Florida, FSU, Alabama, and Auburn are king here) and even high school. As a matter of fact, the local sports covers high school, colleges, then the pros in that order. So people treat Ravens fans rather indifferently, but when at a sports bar watching the games, there's some good-natured jabbing going on since there are fans of EVERY team here.
There are only a couple Ravens fans down here, and they are mostly Baltimore transplants like myself. There are several sports bars down here that carry all the games. The best is probably Pineapple Willy's, which lots of big screens, great food and its right on the beach. Others include Hammerhead Freds, Frankie D's, Time Out!, and the Calypso. The Calypso has good food (Cajun) but unfortunately is a Steeler bar. I went there once for a Ravens game but probably won't go back unless its offseason. :)
I still have my PSL and buy my tickets. I sell most of them (to a Ravens Roost member so only Ravens fans sit in my seats) and fly up for a game or two each year.
Hope that helps, and thanks for asking!"I used to be disgusted, now I try to be amused" - Elvis Costello

Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
Well, I lived in Maryland until I went off to college, which was the 2000 season....college in Cleveland. Not the best time to be a Ravens fan. Now, I'm in Champaign-Urbana IL for more school, and if things continue like they have been now, I'll be in Chicago indefinitely.
The community here as a whole has a pretty wide acceptance of football tastes, being a college town. We're about 1/2 between chicago and indy in terms of geography (1.75 hours west of indy, 2 hours south of chicago). Overwhelmingly Bears fans, though a lot of my buddies from school are Steelers fans, couple Bengals fans. I know of one person that roots for the Colts and he doesn't particularly care that much about them.
Generally speaking, I'm pretty accepted as a Ravens fan and not really hated. I'll get the typical "murderer" rips, but after Tank Johnson lived up to his name, Bears fans have shut up about it pretty much.
Surprisingly the guys I get along with best are Steeler fans, I think of out mutual respect for the teams...well and they kind of had to be nice this year. I've gotten a fair amount of Bears fans to like the Ravens because, let's face it, if you like watching defense, then you're going to enjoy the bears and the ravens. I felt terrible for Bears fans when Tommy Harris went down. That pretty much single-handedly ended their chances, they didn't believe me until everyone started being able to run on them. There is also the Urlacher-Lewis debate, but when I show video of Ray in his prime they don't press the point.
I have to go to bars to watch games if I can get someone to go with me unless it's a sunday late game or somehow we're playing indy or the bears. I get NFC north coverage or the AFC south if there are off games....that's probably why all of the AFC north guys get along since we all go to the same bar together because it's one of the few places to see the games.
Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
Just what I'm looking for....I think it would make for an interesting collection somewhere on the site. Based upon the number of responses, we'll think of how to structure it...thanks again!
Exile....much oblige....
Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
Well, I'm a college student in Brasília, Brazil. My father is a diplomat, and in 2002 he was transferred to DC, and I went to visit him in the summer, and a few times after that. He didn't live in DC per se, however, his house was in Bethesda, MD. So while I haven't technically live there, I have spent many months there.
As to why I became a Ravens fan, I'm not really sure. For some reason, I've always felt this sort of bond to the city of Baltimore, and have always been sympathetic to their teams and stuff. My dad's an Oriole fan, but I think that's more because there didn't use to be a team in DC until recently. He's a Redskins fan...
I don't have much recollection of life prior to the Ravens' coming into existence, given that I was 10 when that happened, but I do remember liking the Jets on the Madden game I had gotten during the Christmas I spent in DC visiting my godmother
Over here there isn't much of a football community. There are some dudes who play every weekend, but I haven't played with them (yet). The last two Super Bowls, I went to TGI Friday's, and the whole team went there, they reserved the outside part and got big-screen TVs and all. They were pretty awesome. Outside of those two games, I've only seen games on my TV. However, football is growing at a spectacular rate here in Brazil, especially due to the terrific job the two new guys at ESPN have been doing. I'm sure soon enough there will be places to go to watch games

Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
a) I live in Pennsylvania and have never lived in MD.
a1) I root for the Ravens because I've always rooted for the Baltimore professional teams, I just never felt a connection with either Philly or Pittsburgh to root for their teams.
b) I watched games since they came to Bmore in '96, but didn't really become a true "fan" until I attended a game in '99.
c) I was never a big NFL fan to begin with, I grew up rooting for Penn State, and I still prefer college football to the NFL, but I do enjoy following and rooting for the Ravens.
d) I honestly have no idea, I have a mis-mash of friends: 1 Eagles, 2 Redskins, 1 other Ravens, and 1 that doesn't care about the NFL.
e) I mainly watch the games in my home, I'm not big on "sports bars". I enjoy watching the games mainly by myself so I can concentrate on teh actual game and not hear assinine opinions.

Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
1a. I moved out of Baltimore for work reasons in May 2000 and have lived in New England (Maine and Massachusetts) ever since. My wife and I bought a business and we live on Cape Cod now.
1b. I am accepted amid the hordes of Patriots fans out of respect for our defense - plenty of Pats fans told me last month that they were not looking forward to playing us in Baltimore for the AFC Title - too bad it never happened!
1c. Until I got DirecTV last year, I went to a local sports bar to watch the games - I made friends with the owner, who is a mega-Bears fan, and was able to score my own private TV every Sunday so I could yell at the TV and eat and drink on my own terms. I got plenty of wierd looks because of my old Ray Lewis jersey, but didn't care. I was tired of not having a TiVo when I watched the Ravens (I like to watch specific plays and formations a few times during the game and on Mondays), so last summer I sprung for the satellite with TiVo and now I yell for the Ravens with my 2.5 year-old daughter in our matching Ed Reed jersies - much better.
Thanks for asking the question - if it wasn't for the internet, and NFL Sunday Ticket on DirecTV - I would be stuck in a bar every weekend!
Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
2- I've never lived in Baltimore, though I did visit once.
-I live in Florence, Al.
-I became a Ravens fan because it is a combination of my two favorite things; Edgar Allen Poes poetry and NFL football. (Now another Ravens message board gets to laugh at me)
-The day they became the Ravens.
-This is a tough one. I grew up an Auburn fan, but after playing in college I really couldn't see the point of cheering for a school that I didn't go to. A couple of years after they told me not to play anymore the Ravens showed up. Natural fit.
-Joking answer: I'm 6'2, 315# and have an unhealthy obsession with really big swords. Like Master Card I'm accepted everywhere.
Honest answer: Once we get to the point I actually care if someone accepts me they know me well enough that the fact I cheer for a NFL team in a city/state I've never been to because I enjoy reading some dead guys poetry really doesn't seem that strange.
My best friend doesn't care about the NFL (Bama fan) while my closest "Sports buddies" are two Eagles fans and a whole lot (and I mean a WHOLE FREAKING LOT) of Alabama fans. Usually we help cheer each others teams on.
-My house. My In-Laws got me DirectTV for Christmas in '99 and bless that little gray dish it's only let me down for one game. In all fairness a huge tree crushed that little gray dish so I'll forgive it."A moron, a rapist, and a Pittsburgh Steeler walk into a bar. He sits down and says, Hi Im Ben may I have a drink please?
Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
a) Live in Ware, Hertfordshire, England, but currently studying Ecology with Biology in Norwich.
a1) I'm a Ravens fan because they were a new team when I started following the NFL on channel 4 in the UK in 1996. I thought that a new fan would go well with a new team. However due to not having the internet until much later I wasn't able to follow the team even remotely closely until the Superbowl season (very good/fortunate timing :D)
b) 1996 but not closely until 2000 and then really closely in the 2002 season when we had the youngest team in league history.
c) I didn't, though I did flirt with the 49ers (still have a soft spot) and Cowboys before settling on the Ravens.
d) I've managed to convert a fair few people at University to American Football and the Ravens and people no longer see it as the illegitimate love child of the two codes of rugby.
e) Via the internet and on TV on Sky Sports when we're on and I can get to a house with Sky.

Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
I grew up in College Park but went to college at Indiana University. I wanted to get away from home and IU has a great business school. Plus I have some family out here. (That was enough to overcome the Colts being here).
I ended up getting a job out here and other than 2 years back in Columbia, I've been here ever since. I now work for IU and love the slower pace of Bloomington. Despite that, there's still a lot to do thanks to it being a college town.
I'm the only Ravens fan I know here. People are really nice in general here so I don't get a lot of crap about being a Ravens fan, even after the Colts beat us in the playoffs. I'm not shy about my feelings on the Colts and once I share our side of the story people usually tell me how they just wanted a team and even wanted a new name. :insane:
I have DIRECTV solely to watch the Ravens and Orioles. Other than when my brother visits from Maryland or if I'm actually at a game, I watch the games alone. For the most part I don't like to watch the games with other people because I'm too moody and short-fused during the games. :)
Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
Hi Tony, I'm fairly new to the board but, visit religiously and think that its a great vehicle to keep in touch. As born and bred Dundalkian (Dundalker?) I could not get along without it. Your info sir:
a) Why you moved and where you have moved to
Moved to Palm harbor Florida because the manufacturing at the Defense contractor that I work for was moved to Florida.
b) How you are accepted in your adopted community as a Ravens fan
Treated with indifference by the Buc's fans on the whole. I mean there really is no connection since they are NFC. It was kind of nice that the Ravens gave them a beat down right out of the box though. The trouble is that most of the people in the community aren't from Florida. I run into alot of Steeler and Brown fans because most of the transplants are from the northeast.
c) Where you go to watch Ravens games.
If the game is not televised, and thanks to regional coverage it rarely is I usually listen to ESPN radio, I don't really get to a bar to watch the games.
Re: To Ravens' Fans Outside of Maryland
a) Where do you live?
a1) Why are you a Ravens fan?
b) When did you become one?
Richmond VA, originally from Harrisburg PA
My whole father's side of the family is from Baltimore. I've been raised a Balt fan...a Colts fan though they moved when I was about 7, Orioles fan, Ravens fan when they moved to Balt.
c) Who did you root for prior to being a Ravens' fan?
49ers. The first NFL game I actually watched was a 49ers game. I watched the Colts with my dad but was too young to actually pay attention. I was young when I saw the Niners, but they won and when you're young you root for winners, so they were my team after that. They're still my second fav team.
d) How you are accepted in your community as a Ravens fan
No one other than Ravens fans like the Ravens. It's about as expected.
e) Where you go to watch Ravens games?
I have NFL Sunday Ticket, so home.

Provo • Remember when BYU was often referred to as the Quarterback Factory? Or Quarterback U?
Yeah, it has been awhile. And it could be even longer before the school that revolutionized the passing game in college football taps again into the pipeline of strong-armed, pocket passers established by legendary coach LaVell Edwards in the 1970s.
Actually, it may not ever happen again, at least as long as Robert Anae is the offensive coordinator. Along with implementing his rapid-paced "go hard, go fast" style of play, Anae has brought the popular zone-read option to BYU. Edwards Air Force Base, as LaVell Edwards Stadium was once called, is now more similar to Falcon Stadium, home of the run-loving Air Force Academy's triple-option.
The Cougars (3-2), who play host to Georgia Tech (3-2) on Saturday (5 p.m., ESPNU) have more rushing yards, 1,389, than passing yards, 1,019.
John Beck and other former great BYU quarterbacks have noticed. Although Beck won't criticize the way things are being done in Provo these days, he does wonder whether he would choose BYU all over again if it was running this offense back when he came out of Mountain View High in Mesa, Ariz.
"That's hard to say," Beck said. "Shoot, that's a good question. You do try to put yourself into a scheme that plays to your strengths. So, I'm not sure."
Coincidentally, then-coach Gary Crowton put in some elements of the zone-read option for quarterback Brandon Doman when Crowton succeeded Edwards in 2001, and that helped Beck get on the field as a freshman in 2003 because he was a better runner than Matt Berry. But Beck also fears that the Quarterback Factory has closed shop at least as he knew it.
"It's tough, because BYU, for me, was the place recognized for producing NFL-caliber quarterbacks, and when I was being recruited by them, I obviously looked at guys like Ty Detmer, Steve Young, Jim McMahon and Robbie Bosco, and I said I want to be like those guys," Beck said.
Did anybody foresee the day when BYU would be ranked 13th in the country in rushing offense and only 95th in passing offense?
"We are not who we used to be, that's for sure," said BYU quarterbacks coach Jason Beck, a backup to John Beck (no relation) from 2004-06 when the Cougars were still flinging the football around with the best of them. "We will still throw it around some, and try to be successful that way, but we are just putting more emphasis on the quarterback running it, and adding that dimension to the running game. We are still expecting to recruit great quarterbacks, and have them play at a high level, but we will throw it and run it, and be a little more dynamic, both ways."
BYU's reputation as a haven for pro-style quarterbacks started to fade when three-year starter Max Hall graduated in 2009 after becoming the winningest QB in school history. Five-star recruit Jake Heaps, who eventually transferred to Kansas, couldn't continue the legacy or wasn't given the chance, depending on one's perspective of that mess and Riley Nelson had a lot of grit, toughness and charisma, but lacked the tools, namely a big-time arm.
Since Hall left, BYU quarterbacks have completed an average of 58 percent of their passes. Hall, a 65-percent passer in his career, was 32-7 as the starter; since then, the Cougars have gone 28-16. Against big-time defenses, though, they've struggled, notwithstanding Friday's 31-14 win over Utah State. The Aggies and Cougars, ironically, are tied at No. 24 in the country in total defense, both giving up only 335.8 yards per game.
Which brings us to sophomore Taysom Hill, who in just seven career starts has already established himself as the best running quarterback not named Eldon Fortie ever in Provo, but has yet to prove he can complete passes consistently. Hill's completion percentage this season is 43.3 percent, but only after going 14 for 19 against Middle Tennessee State and 17 for 32 against Utah State to get himself out of the 33-percent range.
Hill is an ideal fit for Anae's zone-read option offense, which is similar to the offense he ran at Idaho's Highland High before committing to Stanford and going on a church mission to Australia.
Anae said Tuesday that fans can count on more of the same as long as Hill is the man at BYU. Anae and Jason Beck both said backups Ammon Olsen, Christian Stewart, Jason Munns and freshman Billy Green wouldn't be able to run the current offense as well as Hill can.
"I do believe it is the job of the coordinator to kind of match the talent level of your best players," Anae said. "You know, there is so much on the position of the quarterback in the outcome of a football game. So to do what your quarterback does best to start with, especially with a young one. That's been our philosophy. So that's where we have started, and we are going to grow from there."
Known as a pure pocket passer out of Seattle's King High School, Green committed to BYU when Doman was the offensive coordinator, and said Tuesday he "really doesn't know" if he would have picked BYU if he knew the offense would change. Bronco Mendenhall replaced Doman and gave Anae a second stint as the OC the week before Green arrived last January.
"I mean, you see all the old film of Steve Young and Ty Detmer and all those guys, and it was considered Quarterback U back then," Green said. "Obviously, the offense has evolved, but I still think we can be called Quarterback U, and I still happy with where I am at. I feel like I could run this offense."
So the zone-read it is at least until Hill moves on after the 2015 season. By then, Green will be pushing for the starting job, along with another pure passer, Tanner Mangum, who was the No. 3 pro-style quarterback in the 2012 recruiting class. He's currently on a church mission in Antofagosta, Chile and scheduled to return in July of 2015.
Alex Kuresa, the scout team quarterback in 2011 who was moved to wide receiver in 2012 before suffering a season-ending injury, will also be back from his mission at that time. He's not as big as Hill, but is almost as athletic, and was a great running QB at Mountain Crest High while earning Utah Gatorade Player of the Year honors.
Mendenhall said Monday the bottom line is that the offense will adapt to the most talented player.
"It is easy to tailor and shift a little bit, based on the skill set of a BYU quarterback," he said. "So we need [good] grades, and we need a really good player, and we need someone that is willing to live the standards. So there is some freedom within the system to move it a little bit either way."
The factory, however, might just have to choose another name.

A former Box Elder County sheriff's deputy accused of sexually assaulting women during a series of traffic stops has reached a plea agreement that could land him in state prison for up to five years.
Scott Womack, 37, reached a deal in 1st District Court in which he will plead no contest to one count of custodial sexual misconduct, a third-degree felony, and two counts of attempted custodial misconduct, class A misdemeanors, according to court records.
Prosecutors have agreed to drop nine additional misdemeanor charges, including official misconduct, lewdness, unlawful detention and theft.
The deal will presumably be finalized at a hearing set for Wednesday before Judge Kevin Allen.
Womack is accused of ordering women to expose parts of their bodies during strip searches during traffic stops on eight different occasions between October 2010 and July 2011, according to charging documents.
He allegedly told the women he was searching for incriminating body art and piercings, and demanded they remove their clothing to reveal intimate areas. He was charged in various jurisdictions in the northern Utah county earlier this year after an investigation by the Weber County Sheriff's Office.
It was not immediately clear how this plea deal will impact cases pending against Womack in federal court. Late last year, it appeared both sides were working toward resolving all the charges in the federal system.
Womack faces eight federal counts of violating civil rights, a misdemeanor offense. A jury trial is set to begin March 6.
Three women who said they were victimized by Womack have filed civil lawsuits that name Womack, Box Elder County Sheriff J. Lynn Yeates, Box Elder County and the Utah Department of Public Safety as defendants.
Yeates has said Womack was fired after one of the alleged victims filed a complaint in July 2011.

Would you like to save as your currency permanently or for this visit only?
The hotel is already showing its age. It is a disappointment specially if you have already experienced another NH Hotel. Needs to be refurbished in order to be at the normal level of a NH.
Good hotel, friendly staff, a bit overpriced Ordered room service for lunch, prompt, but food a bit poor
Great location close to the town center for walkiNg and sightseeing
It food.
I like the location the hotel
The location and the simple but elegant environment
I like the hotel employes, specialy the people who clean the room for there simpathy and education. A must and an exemple for all hotels! The services included! They have video games at room (could be free...) with playstation. And if you forget the mobil charge don´t worry... the hotel have one for you! The room is a little small for a 4* but its very confortable.
staff facilities
Quiet during the night No shuttle bus service to the airport
Excellent location, especially during August time, when it is festival period. Clean comfortable rooms. No drawers in the rooms for storing clothes. No pool or balcony facilities, which would have been good.
The location is excellent, the room was clean and well-appointed, and the desk staff was very helpful. Parking is not included and it is expensive. The "free cocktail" was not up to us; the bartender simply made us whatever he wanted to and then refused to allow us to bring it back to our room.
the room was spacious enough, clean and quite. I enjoyed a lot the bathtub with hydromassage. the access to the sport facilities nearby (swimming pools) is free for hotelguests. the breakfast has international niveau Poor parking facilities available.
We liked everything, although we were in a junior suite so our room probably wasn't typical. It's location is first class; close to the old town but overlooking the sea. The staff were excellent, very professional and charming.
Location and facilities We were on a smoking floor
Fantastic breakfast! Carpet in room was very worn...needs changing
Fabulous view of port from room. Very comfortable room and great location.
The location of the hotel is just great - close walking distance to the old town and all its lovely restaurants but also a very close tram terminus from which to explore all the sights. Liked the outdoor pools a lot! I think for this standard of hotel there should be tea and coffee making facilities in the room
A gorgeous hotel. Really liked the champagne on arrival in the lobby after a tiring journey. A nice touch.very classy spot.
excellent rooms, we stayed in a junior suite and it was brilliant for our needs (with a baby), everything you would expect from a 5 star hotel was present
The Hotel was easy to find and the room was well appointed. We were there for just one night but managed to take odvantage of its position to walk into A Corunna and see some of it.
Hotel 100 % OK once passed the elevator : the entrance-hall is somewhat obsolete and doesn't let presume you arrived at a high quality hotel.
View over the harbour; great facilities for swimming, exercise carpet is worn; although labeled non-smoking room smelled of smoke; first room was very small, but after asking we were able to change to a better room
location,service,cleanliness and comfort
Setting, space inside rooms, confort, breakfast Cleanliness
The best place to stay while at La Coruña, price and excellent location, superb rooms, and the view: out of this world
Perfectly situated near the coast line with splendid, romantic seeview. Car parking place available. Nice cuisine. Friendly and competent personal, for example - Mr. Macario Vega from the restaurant staff. Couldn't remember drawbacks.
Beatiful area and views, really relaxing, I do recommend the fish menu it is superb. Be aware of the distance from restaurants and city center, it takes one hour to walk. They have no swimming pool
Its position virtually on the cliffs with easy walkable access along the coast onto the promenade into the middle of town. Also due delayed flight we were late arriving but were still able to order a meal in the restaurant at 10.45 pm Nothing.
There is a small beach nearby, the Hercules tower is also close by. Just stepping out the door the view is beautiful, there is a beach promenade which leads to the tower. Public transport also near to the hotel.
location rate
Good size room Long way from city centre
a very pleasant hotel
position and sea walks in ythe morning and evening. Would prefer parking in the hotel grounds.
The room was spacious and clean and they had a good selection of food for breakfast which is a shame as it this hotel could have great potential if it provided the basic requirements for a business traveller in terms of WIFI in the Room, Iron and Restaurant at night. No WIFI in room. No LAN cables available to check internet, no Iron in hotel to iron clothes (apparently we have to pay an outside company to do this), the restuarant down stairs is permantly closed at night, they only have a cafe/bar area which is very cheap looking, so you have to go outside for dinner or eat in your room. Overpriced drinks and food. If I where the manager of this hotel I would be very concerned about the loss in business this is causing.
Very friendly and helpful reception who took the time and trouble to find our 15 year old daughter a room next to ours.
friendly and helpful staff. clean and comfortable room
The hotel facilities were very good and so was the location as is very central.
Love it!!! The room was great , the restaurante was very good! Love it
Price It was not very busy and soulless. Awaay from old town and coast
Free use of computer with internet and printer. Easy accessibility with vehicle. Restaurant convenience and value for money. Very spacious, feel at ease and free to move about! A waste to throw away half- used gel and shampoo since they were hygienically contained in a plastic bottle!!Without compromising cleanliness and hygiene, there should not be unnecessary wastage as a policy!
The Hotel itself Cold Breakfasts . The location of the hotel was very poor indeed.
Modern hotel with good rates. Parking and breakfast discounted for our stay. Nice meal in the restaurant in the evening with staff that took pride in their job. Close to trendy bars. Bar wasn't open until 8pm....
Attended a wedding, site seeing Almost too quiet & functional. Bit of a Tardis !
It was perfectly located for my purpose (golf at the RCG La Coruna), and it was a good hotel at a good price. May need to improve the Internet signal.
Modern, clean and well located. Rooms were well fitted and reasonably spacious. The single Restuarant staff member for the evening meal was inadequate, appeared poorly trained and ill mannered. Given the price of the menu, this was most unacceptable.
We visited Attica 21 because we were attending the Sonar Music Festival. Attica 21 is very close to the festival venue (5 minutes walk) and was very convenient. If you are going into Coruna centre, there is a good bus service which runs past the hotel, or alternatively a taxi about 6 Euro.The hotel has good facilities, and was very clean. It was also very quiet, and we got the impression that it is normally used by business travellers.
very nice and relaxed area it would have been great if there had have been tea and/or coffee making facilities
The service, the location, and the facilities for the price are excelent. Nothing realy bad to say about. Just that when we returned from breakfast the cleaning lady was already in the room even before we checked out.
The leaking toilet.
Hotel was clean and in a good location, convenient to main shopping areas of A Coruña. Nice modern remodel of public spaces and rooms. Poor communicstikn with staff led to 30€ charge for a glorified continental breakfast (and of course they don't tell you until you are done eating) Parking is generally not available and staff will try to send you to parking miles away from the hotel. Room was very hot and could never be properly cooled off.
Clean and comfortable Noisy air con from adjacent shopping centre
comfortable room and bathroom no swimming pool
Cleanliness and the friendliness of the staff Not applicable
The value for money was unbeatable. Taxis were very cheap, so we could access the city easily. The internet was very expensive and the connection frustratingly slow.
Reception - very helpful. Easy to arrive and deprt city to/from this hotel by own car. Cost of 24hr parking nearby (i.e. no dedicated hotel parking). (We were lucky to get free street parking on Sat Night/Sun Morning - otherwise you have to pay quite a bit at nearby store parking lots).
it's location, bathroom and brealfast
the view is obviously the best thing we stayed twice a week apart. on the first occasion the room and bathroom were shabby but made up for by the view
The ocean view is wonderful. The room could have been cleaner. The restaurant food is mediocre: which is strange because food is great all over Galicia.
Location. View from room. Secure parking. Apparently the rate quoted by booking.com for our sea view room should have been per person not per room but the hotel honoured our quote without fuss.
Friendly staff! Nice View!
Location was excellent and the staff were fantastic! Would be more than happy to return the next time that I am staying in La Coruna:-) The hotel could definitely do with an ironing room; or place irons and ironing boards in the bedrooms; or alternatively make them available through reception. The hotel did offer an ironing service but I would expect the option of being able to do my own ironing in any hotel. A tea and coffee making option would also be a good idea for the rooms!
Beautiful and comfortable
an excellent hotel in a very good position.staff helpful and food good.
Good location, helpful staff, clean rooms.
I found the room noisy with the people on the floor above us.
central position for major sights, and proximity to beach, nicely furnished room difficulty of finding way through city centre and one ways
Excellent location - near to the beach and shops.
very helpful staff + beautuful new, modern, very quite room + very comfortabel bed + simply great atmosfer in the room + great position almost on the beach and in the city center .. absolutely worth of money you pay for this room ! We were satisfied with everything.
Excellent location of hotel. Friendly check in staff.
There were three employees of the hotel that stood out and were very helpful. Victor, Iago and Rosa. They informed us on places to go, gave us excellent directions and were very accomodating.
The reception staff were exceptionally helpful. Like all chain hotels it was standard and not much atmosphere. However it was central. 8 euros for parking is average.
The staff at reception were extremely polite, fun and helpful. Air conditioning was not very effective; car park was difficult to negotiate with a long car
This hotel is well located and minutes from the beach. 5-10 mins from the old town and restuarants. We only stayed 1 night and our room was reasonably large, comfortable, clean and well decorated. Yes it is part of a chain so has an element of corporate hotel about it but the design is well thought out and the rate we had was good value for such a central location with good parking facilities
It's situated very central
The staff were very helpful, the room was very nice it was in a great location for all the local ammenities.
The hotel was very quiet and peaceful. The sea view was wonderful to wake up to. The lounges and other seating areas were very attractive. The staff were very friendly. The bed was very very comfortable. Tea/coffee making facilities in the room would have been just perfect.
Very good location, good breakfast. Lack of free parking; Hotel parking expensive (€ 14,00 per night).
rooms,position of the hotel there is no place you can always find something to eat
The view and location Breakfast
Sea view, size of bedroom, cleanliness. Position of toilet in bathroom in 701; lack of comfortable armchair, hard pillows, lack of safe in the room.
It´s in a desirable location direct to the beach Rooms are poorly soundproofed
We had booked a double room only but were given Room 212 - a small suite with a sea view, so were very pleased with it! Great value for the amount we'd paid. We arrived at 11pm and left late next morning - but there were plenty of restaurants and bars very nearby and the walk around the sea front was great. It was a good choice for a night after a late arrival at the airport, before setting off on our vacation proper. We went back to the airport to pick up our hire car next day. Cost of taxi from airport around 16 Euros - only takes 10-15 minutes.
Right on beach with great view. Close to eating and sightseeing area. Breakfast adequate but not exciting.
Location, view, access to all things in the city. Good service, car parking available.
Excellent value for money. Great location: centric and close to the beach. Rooms have been recently renovated. Check-out process was a bit too slow. We had to wait 30 minutes to check-out.
Hotel good, friendly staff Unfortunatly very bad indicated, you have to chearch for hours
Clean, comfortable, good breakfast, good value Hard to find, OK for us with Satnav and address, but would be difficult otherwise. No local restaurants, it is on an industrial estate.
Everything you need during the business trip for very reasonable money
price, good location, useful staff, restaurant, room
Confortable business hotel. Not very central for visiting A Coruña but very close to my clients!
It was only one night. Professional.
Very nice hotel, confortable and with optimum price share
Excellent staff, great restaurant, spacious rooms
Good sized, clean room with well-functioning air conditioning. Parking and access in general are far more difficult than they need to be. No place to leave a car while checking in. Even a taxi driver got stuck with the poor layout. Poor signage and indifferent staff.
3 min. by car from center of the town, very comfortable, internet is in good working order. Must pay for internet
area around the hotel proved to be very good for cafe/bars. Bus to city centre was just down the road . Bus 1 euro, taxi about 5 to 7 euro.
In the add, it's wrotten it's central, I would not say that, you need a car or take taxis.
The service was good, and everything worked perfectly. A bit "clinical", in center of hard traffic area
Staff were superb. Service was excellent. Great value for money. Too far from centre of Coruna and this was not clear on the website when booking. Good taxi service and cheap enough too!
employees attention
the staff were very friendly, hotel well situated and affordable
The best thing about this hotel was the meal of the day, very good value for money Quite a walk to the car park especially if you have a walking disability
Convenient & fuss free N/A
Helpful staff, very comfortable sleep! Very close to train station; within walking distance. Hotel offers reasonably priced parking though isn't necessary as free parking in the area relatively easy to find. For our one night stay, no problems at all.
very friendly staff our room faced the major street, difficult to sleep with cars going by, it also faced the large 'hotel avenida' sign that is lit up at night, the windows had sheer filthy curtains on them. They just need some nicer light blocking curtains and bedspreads on the beds instead of just blankets and it would make a big difference in appearance.
The staff were very helpful The noise of th traffic was very loud at night .
The bad was very confortable and the room very clean the hotel has no balcony, so i cant recomand it to smokers.
Clean and comfortable and well located near transport
I liked the convenience to the bus and train stations. I did not like breakfast was not unitl 7:35am the morning we were leaving. The receptonist was not welcoming and friendly and did not go the extra mile in customer service. It seemed when asled a question it was an inconvenience rather than take ownership and help me out. I asked him if he could call my friend in his room and he said "no".
price, location was good would not print a document for me, no curtains only net curtains?
Good value for the money, great location. Room smelled kind of smokey (as in cigarettes). Also, our room faced looked directly into three other rooms, meaning that we could see anything and everything going on in these rooms if you had the blinds open, which you needed to have open in order to air out the smokey room.
Location, new, modern and clean rooms.
Convenient location. Could walk to Michelin restaurant and El Corte Ingles. Bed not too comfortable.
Convenience of location, helpfulness and friendliness of staff, cleanliness of room
It was close to a big shopping centre and the bus and train stations! Services were good It was a good bit away from the town centre, althoguh a bus did run from the next street into the town!
Excellent value for the money. The rooms were well kept and quite spacious for the price. The free high speed internet service is definitely appreciated. Though the hotel may not be in the heart of the city, it is a short distance by foot (< 20 minutes). Public transportation is readily accessible and taxis are easily hailed. If smoking bothers you, be sure to ask for a smoke-free room
clean and close to shopping area no parking, far from the center, very busy area
Great location, great rooms with wireless and plasma tv's, nice hotel staff and well worth the price. Un hotel de buen precio, localidad excelente, tenía una habitación fabolosa con un tv de plasma y wifi,además el personel era muy amable. Nothing! Nada!
Nice, clean, centric, good breakfast, all new, very kind and helpfull stuff

Everly Brothers' Don Everly reflects on brother Phil's death
Listen to The Everly Brothers on iHeartRadio
The Everly Brothers' Don Everly says that while "the world might be mourning an Everly Brother" with the passing of Phil Everly, he's grieving the loss of his actual brother.
In a statement to "People" magazine, the older half of the legendary sibling duo says he always thought he'd be "the one to go first." He adds that on Friday, just before he got the news, he'd been listening to one of his favorite songs that Phil wrote.
Don says he "had an extreme emotional moment," which he took as "a special spiritual message from Phil saying goodbye." He adds that while their relationship had some friction, their love for one another "was and will always be deeper than any Earthly differences" they might have had.
Don also says his family is "touched by all the tributes" they're seeing for Phil, and he's extending his thanks for allowing them "to grieve in private at this incredibly difficult time." Phil Everly died on Friday of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, or COPD. He was 74.

Mary Joy Jameson Named Associate Administrator for GSA Office of Citizen Services and Communications
July 29, 2002
Contact: Eleni Martin (202) 501-1231
WASHINGTON - Stephen A. Perry, Administrator of the General Services Administration, today announced the appointment of Mary Joy Jameson as Associate Administrator for GSA's new Office of Citizen Services and Communications (OCSC). Jameson, a Ridgeland, S.C. native, joined the Bush Administration December 2001 as the GSA Associate Administrator of Communications.
Jameson has held several senior-level communications positions during her 20-year career, serving as Senior Vice President with the public relations firm of Burson-Marsteller, Vice President of Communications at the American Forest & Paper Association, Special Assistant to the Ambassador at the U.S. Embassy in Paris, and Director of Public Affairs/Press Secretary for the U.S. Department of Energy.
Jameson, who began her career with former S.C. Gov. Jim Edwards, graduated with a bachelor's degree in political science from Clemson University in 1977.
In making the announcement, Perry said the new OCSC is closely tied to President Bush's management agenda which calls for making government more citizen centered, results oriented and expands the use of Internet technology for e-government. Perry called Jameson "a strong and media-savvy communications professional whose many years of experience in government service and in the private sector will be a tremendous asset to our leadership team."
The new office combines three highly successful areas within GSA--the Office of Communications, Federal Consumer Information Center and FirstGov.gov. "Our goal for the new office is to streamline and modernize the process for citizens to obtain information about U.S. Government activities and services, and to administer and coordinate communications for GSA as an agency," Jameson said.
"The Office of Citizen Services and Communications opens the way for citizens and the media to easily obtain information and services from the government on the Web, via e-mail, in print, and over the telephone," Jameson said.
GSA is a centralized federal procurement and property management agency created by Congress to improve government efficiency and help federal agencies better serve the public. It acquires, on behalf of federal agencies, office space, equipment, telecommunications, information technology, supplies, and services. GSA, comprised of 14,000 associates, provides services and solutions for the office operations of over 1 million federal workers located in 8,300 government-owned and leased buildings in 1,600 U.S. communities.

RK Motors Charlotte is unquestionably the home of the A12; you know, those killer Super Bees and Road Runners with lift-off hoods, 440 Six Pack engines, and four manual gears in the transmission. We've sold more than just about anyone else, and our staff is comprised of experts who know these cars inside and out and can tell from 20 feet away whether they're correct. We've restored the two most valuable A12s in existence, the first one off the assembly line and the famous Project Six Pack racer.
We're not alone in our appreciation of these amazing machines, either, and nobody here at RK Motors Charlotte was surprised when the market for these cars took a big jump skyward. Recent auction results show that even non-numbers-matching A12s are red hot. Just a few examples include one at Barrett-Jackson with an automatic that sold for nearly $120,000 last month in Scottsdale, with no mention of matching numbers or documentation in the description. Or how about the Plymouth Road Runner A12 with a non-matching, modified engine that grabbed $121,000 last June? Or the non-matching-numbers unit that Russo and Steele offered, which fetched a tidy $90,000 final bid and crossed the six-figure barrier after all the fees were figured in. Then there's the one Mecum sold at their Dallas event back in October 2011, another non-matching A12 that netted a final number just over $100,000, again without any paperwork. And these are all garden-variety, non-matching examples! Even Sports Car Market magazine noted that at $120,000, even a non-numbers-matching piece was priced "market correct." Now take a moment to consider what a documented, 4-speed A12 with its original, numbers-matching engine in a one-of-one color combination might be worth today…
Well, actually, you don't have to imagine it. RK Motors Charlotte is proud to present this totally unique, correct, matching-numbers A12 (as if they weren't unusual enough on their own) restored by our own craftsmen and ready to start collecting trophies at the very highest levels. Seriously, have you ever seen an A12 with a white vinyl top? I'm guessing the answer is, "No," because this A12 is a documented one of one! As a huge fan of the unusual and odd, I love this one even more than the uber-rare Butterscotch one we had two years ago. And yes, we have a Chrysler Corporation Broadcast Sheet on the car to back up its unusual configuration, as well as the original Lynch Road fender tag that is still on the car.
As an RKM Performance Center restoration, you know the paint and body work are beyond reproach. We don't represent anything but the best of the best, and if it's coming out of our own shop, it can't be anything but meticulously done. Arrow-straight bodywork? Of course. Gorgeous paint that's a mile deep? Obviously. Detailing that will pass muster at the Mopar Nationals and bring home a trophy? Absolutely. Ironically, while these cars were originally cheap and dirty racers for guys with only 3 or 4 nickels to rub together, this one has had a fortune invested in it to make it one of the nicest A12s on Earth. Panel gaps are excellent all around, and even the lift-off hood fits better than they did when they were new. The guys working on this car spent dozens, if not hundreds of hours sanding the body until every last wrinkle and wave was banished from the surface. Then the 2-stage Hemi Orange paint went on. We had this car parked next to the all-original survivor A12 on the floor, and the difference between this paint and the vintage 1969 stuff is mind-blowing. Don't get me wrong, original is cool, but anyone who sees this car in person will understand that there's just nothing like immaculate, deep, color-sanded and buffed urethane to make a car look like a million bucks.
And no restoration is complete without taking all the bright pieces to show-car levels, which is exactly what we did with this one. Emblems and badges are exact for the winning edge at a show. All the stainless glitters like a mirror, the chrome pieces are either freshly re-plated originals or excellent reproductions, and there's nothing here that is merely adequate. Over the top? Maybe, but for the enthusiast who wants the best, there's only one place to find it.
OK, so it looks nice. How does it run? Well, have a look under the hood. That's the original, matching-numbers 440HP big block, fully detailed and covered in matching Hemi Orange paint. Up top, there's a correct Edelbrock 3×2 Six Pack intake with three 2-barrel carburetors complete with the proper choke and fast idle solenoid assemblies, all fed by that giant oval air cleaner that inhales deeply through the scoop on the lift-off hood. There's a correct 054 radiator up front, hooked up to the motor by reproduction radiator and heater hoses with correct Corbin clamps. Date-coded spark plug wires connect to a rebuilt distributor and ride in reproduction wire looms. The battery's a group 25 reproduction item with the correct red caps, and note that the alternator pulley is the correct 2-belt piece, even though these cars never used the second groove (just like the Hemis). New cables, the correct PCV valve and a rebuilt master cylinder add to the look, and it was assembled and painted just the way the factory would do it, overspray and all.
Underneath you'll find some of the finest metalwork we've ever seen on a car. Yes, the floors are new, but I challenge you to locate the seams. The guys in our restoration shop, Mike Velek in particular, went all-out to make these floors look original. Come in and have a look at the car and we'll put it up on a lift, and see if you can find where the fresh steel was stitched in. And once that was done, it was coated in a tidy layer of factory-style undercoating to make it look authentic and not over-restored, which is often the key to winning at the highest levels. Since this is an A12, after all, there's also a date-correct A833 18 spline 4-speed manual transmission feeding a stout Dana 60 out back with 4.10 gears and a Sure Grip limited slip unit. There's a new dual exhaust system with all the correct hangers and polished tips, rebuilt stock suspension, and fresh brakes all around. Wheels are correctly stamped A12 steel units finished in basic black (hubcaps? We don't need no stinkin' hubcaps!) wearing F70-15 Goodyear Polyglas redlines as original.
Inside, it is about as nice as they come, and like the white vinyl top, the black and white interior is a very rare find on an A12. A vast majority of these cars had black interiors, so finding one spec'd with an original white interior is a very pleasant surprise. The black carpets and dashboard keep it from being overwhelming, and all the soft parts are new, of course. Rebuilt gauges, including the Tic-Toc-Tach, live under a fresh dash pad, and tie in nicely with the restored steering wheel. The white seats feature new foam over the original frames, covered with exact reproduction seat covers that fit snugly and without the wrinkles you see on lesser restorations. The seat belts have been restored, and you're gonna need 'em with the acceleration this car can generate. The black headliner is also new and has been expertly installed with no sags or wrinkles. Sparkling white door panels finish the interior.
The trunk has been detailed for show with a correct jack and lug wrench and a matching spare, all tied together with a new reproduction trunk mat. And have a look under the deck lid for correct markings that have been duplicated using a low-mileage original as a guide. Under that mat are more seamlessly installed floors that are 100% indistinguishable from original; heck, knowing how Lynch Road cars were built, these might even be BETTER!
Documentation, as I mentioned, includes a partial Chrysler Corporation Broadcast Sheet and paperwork from the original selling dealership, all of which verifies this car's color combination and options, making it completely unique in the A12 world.
Those of you who have admired some of RKM Performance Center's other restorations, well, here's your chance to own an incredibly rare A12 that was restored by the nation's foremost A12 authority. We have an A12 with about 9,000 original miles sitting in the showroom to use as reference, and there's no question that the guys in our body shop get some astounding results. Or maybe you just dig the whole idea of the A12 itself: fast and light with minimum frills, and you want the best one money can buy. Well, here it is. You'll blow people away at shows with the unusual color combination, and I can almost guarantee nobody has ever seen one like this before. The market is definitely on the move, and you can own this correct, freshly restored, A12 with a numbers-matching engine for about what the other guys are paying for also-rans. Call now before someone else recognizes that this is a rare opportunity!

East Cleveland: Toddler dies after falling 17 stories
(East Cleveland) At around 7:40 in the evening on Monday a two-year-old boy died after falling from the 17th floor of the Crystal Tower Apartments.
The boy, identified by the Cuyahoga County Medical Examiner as Alijah R. Glenn, was being watched by his Grandma at the time and fell through a floor level glass window.
Lt. Naylor with the East Cleveland Police Department says at this time the fall appears to be accidental.
Naylor says all the apartments in the building have floor level windows.
The toddler was alive when paramedics arrived and transported to Rainbow Babies and Children's Hospital with what Naylor describes as life threatening injuries. He was pronounced dead at the hospital.

Sorry to hear about this. Everyone alright in VB?
Just heard about this...
oh wow that's crazy hope everyone is ok.
I work inside the Naval Station, but live near that crash site. Both pilots supposedly ejected, but the jet crashed into an apartment complex
i live right down the street from the crash , at first i though it was just a fire i didn't hear or see anything i just saw huge smoke clouds. kids are out of school today i hope no one was at home
it was a few miles from my apartment...it took out a large section of the complex. There hasn't been any word of injuries or deaths besides the piolots (that had non-life threating injuries). If you look up pictures of the damage, it seems like it would be a miracle if no one was killed...especially with the kids being out of school. the police fire ect have everything blocked off from the ocean to the apartment complex and all around it. traffic is heavy to begin with here and now it is insane.
This sucks, sorry to anybody who is affected by this, it's an unfortunate accident.
Yea i was at the scene of this. i had just got out of classes in Norfolk and had seen the cloud of smoke. I went to go check it out and it was chaos down there. people lying in the street, crowds of people. 2 whole buildings were pretty much gone. probably shouldn't have gone down there due to the air quality but did it anyway. it wouldve been a damn miracle if no one died
local news and video
Hope everyone is alright. i heard the pilots emptied out its jet fuel before ejecting to minimize damage. stille looks bad. http://imgur.com/WKpwP http://i.imgur.com/arcto.jpg
Heard about it on the radio, didn't get to see any of the damage.. looks insane though
