Assembly Minority Leader Brian Kolb is among Republican leaders touring upstate today and tomorrow meeting with local Republican officials to discuss their slate and agenda for 2010.
Suffolk County Executive Steve Levy, a Democrat, is doing the same, heading to Syracuse and Watertown today and Rochester tomorrow as he talks to county GOP chairmen about a potential run on their line as a Democrat.
But Kolb, R-Canandaigua, Ontario County, said the party has plenty of people to choose from before they start looking at Levy, who in 2007 ran unopposed as county executive and was cross endorsed by Republicans.
"Quite frankly, my reaction is I think we have a lot of good Republicans that have worked in the trenches for years in both the Senate and the Assembly and county executives, which I think we should really focus on first," Kolb said.
"Regardless of whether Steve Levy has been a successful county exec, he's also had a past pattern of trying to unelect Republicans. So think that's going to be a real obstacle for him to overcome."
Updated: One of those good Republicans for statewide office may be Kolb himself. He confirmed this afternoon that he's been approached by some Republican leaders to consider running for U.S. Senate against Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand.
Kolb, who has flirted with running for the U.S. House before, said he will consider it.
"People are just talking to me and encouraging me to really seriously consider it," he said this afternoon.
Kolb's comments come as state Republicans appear to be coalescing around Rick Lazio as its candidate for governor. He's received more than 40 percent of the weighted vote to win the GOP nomination at its convention this spring, and with Erie County Executive Chris Collins out of the race, Lazio is the only announced candidate.
State GOP chairman Ed Cox said this morning that the party will rally around Lazio, but stopped short of officially endorsing him.
"Rick is at the moment the only candidate out there, he's done a great job presenting our issues and we're going to be working with him so that he can raise the resources he needs to be effective as a candidate and to win the governorship," Cox said.
Despite not having a full slate yet, Republicans are feeling good about their chances in this November elections after Republicans in New York and the nation have fared well in recent elections.
Cox, Kolb and Senate Minority Leader Dean Skelos are in Albany, Watertown and Syracuse today and Rochester tomorrow meeting with GOP officials.
The good mood prompted Skelos to predict that Republicans could win five state Senate seats in November, more than enough to win back the majority it lost in 2008.
"We're going to beat Craig Johnson. We're going to beat Brian Foley. We're going to beat Andrea Stewart-Cousins. We're going to beat David Valesky. We're going to beat Darrell Aubertine and we're going to beat Bill Stachowski.
"I think we also have opportunities against Suzi Oppenheimer and others. We are going to run a complete slate of quality candidates against all the Democrats, including in New York City."
Here's Cox talking about Lazio's candidacy.

This is a "best practice" kind of question. I have a string which, for example, reads
Please read more detail about our products.
To make that localisable, I need to use something like:
<asp:Localize runat="server" ID="ReadMore" text="Please read more detail about our products." />
So far so good, but now I need to create a hyperlink:
Please read more detail about our products.
To make that more manageable from a localisation point of view, I think I need to use some placeholders:
string.format("Please read {0}{2}{1} about our products.", ", "", "more detail")
I guess I have two questions - is this the right way to do it (given that two parts of the hyperlink are static and the text within it isn't)? Secondly, how best to combine the Localize control with the string.format?
Thanks, Nick.

THE STORY: The Memphis Grizzlies are inching closer to clinching a playoff berth while keeping their eyes on the No. 4 spot in the Western Conference. The New Orleans Hornets have won four straight and six of eight in a bid to pull out of last place in the West. The Grizzlies lost to the New Orleans Hornets on the road Sunday, 88-75. Guaranteed a home in the Crescent City, New Orleans is evaluating its players from a position of strength.
TV: 8 p.m. ET, CST (New Orleans), SSO (Memphis)
ABOUT THE HORNETS (19-42): It was announced over the weekend that New Orleans Saints owner Tom Benson had agreed to purchase the team from the league and that a lease agreement was in place that would keep the team in the New Orleans Arena well into the future. The league also granted the city the 2014 All-Star Game. On the court, the Hornets have gotten stronger on defense in each of the pass four games, culminating with a 75-67 victory at Charlotte on Monday. They held Memphis to 35.7 percent shooting in Sundayâs meeting. Eric Gordon, who sat out Mondayâs game to get some rest, scored 18 points against the Grizzlies while Jason Smith and Carl Landry battled on the inside for a combined 30 points and 21 rebounds.

Gardening is so much more than reading about it. It is in the doing and the growing and the experience of seeing for yourself that you really learn. A paragraph pored over is a good start, for knowing where a plant comes from and how, in theory, it might grow is a useful part of the puzzle. Seeing it in situ and talking with the owner of the plant is better still, but there is nothing like growing it, living with it and having the time to see it develop to get to know its habits. Insider knowledge is the best knowledge, the information you need to give you the confidence to adapt and commit yourself in a garden.
One of the great joys of making gardens for other people is that I get to experiment. I can do this on a large scale in gardens that are far bigger than mine. Sometimes I think of it like building a country-wide plant collection in a range of wildly varying conditions that could never come together in a single garden. I can play with Judas trees, figs and mulberries as far north as Yorkshire to see if they will do well there in our increasingly mild climate. I can attempt to naturalise Trilliums in a wood in the Midlands or really push the boundaries to see if my favourite Datura might possibly be hardy in a sheltered corner in Guernsey. On an educated guess I discovered that Eryngiums do especially well in this mild, maritime climate and I am trying out a new and as yet untested palette there to broaden my experience. I carry out this experimentation within reason and always with a calculated risk, but it is good to get to know familiar plants better, and also to discover new ones to widen my knowledge of what might be possible.
I have passions that run through this path of discovery and one group that I am getting to know through my client's gardens are the crab apples. The interest in these wonderful flowering trees started several years ago, with a grove that we planted in a garden I am developing in southern Italy. They are planted in a small, high-sided ravine so that you can walk among them and be lost in the experience of blossom in spring. The blossom then is sweet, heady and incandescent with captured light, but the trees also go on to fruit, and from late summer the boughs hang low with miniature rosy apples. This display lasts for months, well after the foliage is down, and it only ends once the birds start to hunger and strip the trees in a few days around Christmas time.
Sadly, I have no idea what the trees are and I try every year to get them identified. If I am there in blossom season, I can never get a flowering branch home intact to ask an expert, and photographs only give up part of the story. The Italian nursery that supplied the plants is notoriously relaxed about what a plant really might be. I have waited years to discover that the white wisteria they supplied, which they swore was what I had asked for, is, in fact, blue. 'Does it really matter if the plants are beautiful?', is their response when quizzed. Well, yes, because in the case of the crab apples, I want to repeat the experience.
The frustration over their identification has only heightened my quest, and over the years, in an effort to match these lovely trees, I have been planting what I glean to be the best varieties whenever the chance arises. I have planted up groves in several gardens up and down the country with the aim of creating a place within the garden that sings at a particular moment and does it en masse. In one garden I have interplanted wild hazel with a dozen Malus hupehensis. This is one of the best of the crab apples, a strong tree, with branches that ascend in the early years and then broaden out to form a dome-shaped tree as much as 40ft in height and width. When in flower, and they flower late towards the end of April, they eclipse most things around them and half a year later their branches hang heavy with small red fruits. I have underplanted them with late-flowering Narcissus poeticus, the Pheasant's Eye narcissus, so that the clouds of white are taken up from ground level, and in autumn there are autumn crocus to complement the fruits.
Crab apples also make good urban trees where space matters. Clean white 'Evereste' is ideal in its upright space-saving habit, but I have also seen this used as a compact hedge at Harlow Carr gardens in Harrogate. The fruits are a rosy orange and it adapts well to pruning if you start it young with a multi-stemmed plant. In contrast, M x zumi var. calocarpa forms a low, wide-spreading tree with brilliant bright red fruit. It is wider in the beam than it is high, but light enough to allow ground-covering perennials to establish under its skirts. M floribunda from China is softer in character with fine, numerous branches and a froth of pink flowers in the spring. This is early and the buds are a bright, lipstick pink before they blow to something altogether softer in tone. I have heard it said that this tree is a martyr to canker, but I have been lucky so far and keep it well away from hawthorn hedging, as this is where the canker spends some of its life cycle.
A variety such as M x robusta 'Red Sentinel' often hangs on to the fruit well after the foliage is down. Each miniature apple is the size of a marble and a deep uniform red, which lights up brightly when illuminated by winter sunshine. Its yolky yellow equivalent, M x zumi 'Golden Hornet', has similar habits and oddly the birds leave them both until the going gets really tough. Before that happens, there is a wonderful moment during a gentle autumn when you get the fruit of crab apples combining with luminous foliage. The best of them colour pale golden yellow which, combined with fruit, is a gift in a garden. M transitoria is a treasure in this respect, with foliage laced at the margins and colouring reliably. (M transitoria 'Thornhayes Tansy' is even more dissected.) The tree has a wild, hawthorny quality about it and the leaves are the perfect foil to the tiny orange fruits.
M transitoria is also reputed to be resistant to honey fungus and is happy on a heavy clay soil. Crab apples are not such distant cousins to the culinary varieties and favour similar free-drained conditions in the main. Not all are suitable for crab apple jelly, but if you do decide to add to the depths of your autumn larder, 'John Downie' is a good candidate. One of just many that I am sure will be just as good for the purpose - I'll have to wait another 10 years or so to let you know with confidence, once I have tried for myself, but here's to getting to know!

There is something to be said about a school district such as Nogales Unified, where 99 percent of the students are Hispanic or another minority.
The facts that time and again our students win state and even national recognition, have a graduation rate far higher than the state average, and go on to become college- and career-ready in record numbers, most especially when compared with other districts with high minority populations, are based solely on their own merits. There is no throwback to affirmative action at NUSD.
The Tucson Unified School District is not nearly as lucky. A recently published article stated that TUSD wants to give minority students "motivation" points when they test for going into University High School because they are underrepresented on the honors campus. If they score below the entry-level requirement, they can still get in if they can demonstrate they are motivated to attend.
Not so at Nogales High School. NHS is unique in that it has both an International Baccalaureate and an Advanced Placement program, as well as honors classes. The participation in these programs mirrors the ethnicity rate of the school as a whole. That's right. The IB candidates, as well as the students in the AP and honors classes, are minorities. And no one gave them motivation points to join.
Last year, six of the 10 schools in the district received Reward status as outstanding Title 1 schools. Wade Carpenter Middle School was selected as the top Title 1 site in the state, and Welty, Coronado and Bracker were in the running. And guess what? At least 99 percent of the students in these schools are Hispanic, many speak English as their second language, and the majority have parents who have little education themselves. The district as a whole has a free- and reduced-price meal designation of more than 82 percent, so not only are they minority students, but they qualify as being economically deprived.
No one gives them points for motivation. They either earn their achievement or they don't. No one at the state level says: "Poor, poor Nogales. It has all these minority, poor, deprived students, so let's not hold them to the same standards. Let's allow them to score below Scottsdale or Catalina Foothills, but give them extra credit for being who they are."
Look at our minority athletes. The Rio Rico Little League team was stuffed with NUSD students, and these little Hispanics swamped the World Series. Our Hispanic-dominated basketball and football teams have taken state championships. Our mariachi students — led for years by a very talented Anglo girl — prove that ethnicity is not the deciding factor when it comes to musical talent. In this reverse-discrimination scenario, no one gave her motivation points to join a group that was not dominated by students of her ethnicity.
I have the privilege of writing the narratives for the 11 newest inductees into the Nogales High School Hall of Fame. Ten out of 11 are Hispanics, and most came from very humble households. Their accomplishments range from serving the community as fire chief, mayor and assistant police chief to major leaderships in education, public service and medicine. Every single one of them has made commitments to social and service organizations.
Can you imagine if these individuals were denigrated because it could have been assumed that they got where they are now because they got motivation points years ago before they even graduated from NHS?
Yes, we in Nogales are very fortunate. When someone here accomplishes something, it is because of his or her own strengths and not because years ago someone bestowed credit for their motivation. And that is how it should be.

Art Review: 'Charlotte Dumas: Anima' at Silver Eye Center for Photography
The exhibit "Charlotte Dumas: Anima" at South Side's Silver Eye Center for Photography features several large-scale photographs of the majestic burial horses at Arlington National Cemetery after a long day.
These close-range portraits show the horses in their respective stalls as they lay down to sleep. The images capture these otherwise intimidating animals in tender moments, with eyes slowly drooping, muscles relaxing and their whole being given over to sleep.
The Army horses — which belong to the Old Guard, the 3rd Infantry Regiment — are used to take soldiers to their final resting place in traditional military funerals.
Drawing inspiration from the classical portrait paintings of the 17th-century Dutch Golden Age, Dumas photographed them from 2010 to 2012, exploring the relationship between her subjects and their environment.
Commissioned by the Corcoran Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C., this exhibit, organized by Julie Saul Gallery, New York, and Silver Eye, has a look and feel as if walking through a stable of horses, depicting each horse submerged in darkness.
Dumas was born in 1977 in Vlaardingen, Netherlands. She graduated from the Gerrit Rietveld Academie in Amsterdam in 2000 and continued her education at the Rijksakademie from 2001 to '02. Her work has been included in many group exhibits and solo shows in the Netherlands, Italy, France and the United States.
For Dumas, who splits her time between Amsterdam and New York City, animals have been one of her main subjects for several years. In 2011, she photographed search-and-rescue dogs that worked at Ground Zero, four images of which are on display in this exhibit. Since 2005, she has been taking portraits of wolves, horses, dogs and tigers. An example of the latter is also on view.
She has done this with purpose.
"The disappearance of animals in our daily lives as part of society has a tremendous impact, I believe, on how we experience life and how we process and reflect on the things that happen around us," she says. "Once there was a broad variety of interaction with (working) animals that wasn't like the more common relations as we know now — kept as pets or used as meat."
In her view, animals were much more needed in the past while they also offered solace and companionship.
Dumas believes the way we look at animals tells us about ourselves.
"The portraits of the horses in Arlington seen at night laying down resting, away from their laden task, become also just horses again," she says. "Spending time watching them drift in and out of sleep felt like witnessing a most vulnerable moment, with their large legs folded underneath and their big heads tilting on the stable floor, they feel like friendly giants to me."
In the back of the gallery, a short video shows several of the horses slowly settling into slumber. In one stall, a horse rolls back onto its side, as though pushed, as it falls into deep sleep. It's a moment of exhaustion that is completely relatable between animals and humans.
"When rolling over, their figure is no longer vertical and majestic but fragile and sometimes awkwardly looking, with their bellies sticking up," Dumas says.
"The context in which I portray my subjects keeps changing, and although I meet new characters every time, some of which I'm more drawn to than others, their animal behavior is universal."
Having since completed another series featuring the wild horses of Nevada, Dumas says that one of the wild horses in her most recent video "The Widest Prairies" lays down just like that horse at Arlington.
"I enjoy seeing the different series in light of each other."

What should I do? or what can I do? there is a hope that it will be approved? it seems perfect. I might delete the v1 ensure that this is accepted, if possible but if he is denied the same? I remain with 0 run many v2, I do not understand why this was rejected, has been edited every effect change for the better animations and added various versions. it seems to me a very good standard.
Unfortunately your submission Stylish Chrome Energy V2 isn't quite ready for VideoHive and requires significant improvements and changes before it can be resubmitted and reconsidered. If you want to submit any more files that falls into this category they not only have to be up to our standards, but really outperform any existing ones. Your project is not under our quality level, but I don't feel it's better than those extruded logo stings we already have. And because you already have similar project: http://videohive.net/item/3d-stylish-chrome-energy-extrusion/2290627 there are even less reasons to accept another one.
you can recommend?video preview http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Su8KvRMbrE&feature=g-u
It's quite a nice one as they go, but simple flyovers of 3D extruded logos have been on the "we don't need them list" for years now. You take that risk when you make one.
What's more, CS6 projects are being accepted now, and the raytracer can simply do this kind of stuff better.

La Trinidad, Benguet, March 16, 2003 -- A cake worth P110,000?
Yes, if it is a giant strawberry cake whipped up out of 1,200 kilograms of fresh strawberry fruits.
Two giant strawberry cakes will be the centerpieces of the La Trinidad Strawberry Festival 2003 until March 23, Mayor Nestor Fongwan announced.
This is the second year that a giant strawberry cake will be baked and sold to local residents, visitors and tourists as part of La Trinidadĺs efforts to institutionalize its strawberry industry.
Only one cake about seven feet tall and five feet in diameter was prepared during the first La Trinidad Strawberry Festival.
A total of P98,000 was spent to make the giant cake. At P10 per slice (3.5 by 2.5 inches) sold to the public, the cake fetched P110,000, or a net income of P12,000.
Last yearĺs cake was baked by Eric Espadero. Of the 1,200 kilograms of strawberry fruits used, farmers donated 500 kilograms, and the local government paid for the rest.
This year, two giant strawberry cakes will be baked by Espadero and three other chefs Joy Chamas, George Lea˝o and Nanette Fontanilla.
One will be as big as last yearĺs and the other is smaller, Fongwan said.
The partaking of the two cakes will be held on March 22, starting at 10 a.m. at the municipal hall of La Trinidad, which is Benguetĺs capital.
Actually, the La Trinidad Strawberry Festival 2003 began last March 1 and will run until March 23.
The first-day activity was a Woodcarversĺ Festival. On March 12, the main event was the search for the biggest strawberry fruit.
From March 12 to 18, the search for the "Most Unique Product with a Touch of Strawberry" goes on.
An Agro-Industrial Technology Trade Fair and Strawberry Lane Food Festival are also among the main attractions until March 23.
Other activities include the First Strawberry Mountain Bike Challenge, country music band competition, the La Trinidad Strawberry Scrabble Tournament and the La Trinidad Open Chess Championship, vegetable fun run, health fair, cultural shows, amateur boxing tournament, a farmersĺ congress, flower arrangement competition, strawberry picking competition, and strawberry festival marathon.
Fongwan said strawberries and cutflowers are the two main crops of this town of about 71,000 people just north of Baguio City.
He said 90 percent of strawberries are produced in La Trinidad, and the rest in Tuba and Baguio City.
This town also produces cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli, potato and onion. Half of its 8,080-hectare land area is devoted to agriculture, churning out 29,7000 dozens of cutflowers and 29,420 tons of vegetables annually. (Rudy Fernandez, Star)

Aaron commutes to work by bike and bus while his family uses one car. Biking helps him exercise and feel more mentally acute – plus, it saves money and sets an environmentally responsibly example for his two children.
I pledge to drive 10 miles less each week. Can you ride your bike to work one day a week? Or work from home? Or make fewer car trips by combining your errands? In one year you will drive 520 fewer miles, reducing CO2 emissions by the equivalent of 520 pounds a year. #driveless
Jeff and Mandy save $245 a month in bills by driving a gas/electric Toyota Prius and an all-electric Nissan LEAF. Along with putting fewer emissions in the air, they have made an affordable, sensible family investment.
I pledge to consider an electric or hybrid car for my next car purchase. Did you know there are over 16 electric and 40 hybrid models of all shapes and sizes? Used hybrids start at under $5,000, and new electrics lease for $200/month. Going from a 25 mpg gas car to a 50 mpg hybrid reduces CO2 emissions by 6,000 pounds a year. Going to an electric car reduces CO2 emissions by the equivalent of 9,000 pounds a year. #chooseelectric

These two simple actions to use less disposable plastic will reduce CO2 emissions by the equivalent of 430 pounds a year. #ditchplastic
Georgianna joined the Eat Local challenge and learned to find food she loved locally. Farmers Markets and stores had all she needed to be an eco-friendly consumer, and introduced her to new favorites, from raw honey and sprouted almond butter to zucchini noodles and artisan cheese.
I Pledge to not eat meat, fish, or dairy one day a week. With a year-round growing climate and Farmers Markets held almost every day of the week in our region, it's easy to create a diet that emphasizes locally grown produce and whole grains. You'll find lots of support through efforts like Meatless Mondays and the Eat Local Challenge. Going vegetarian one day a week will reduce CO2 emissions by the equivalent of 200 pounds a year. #eatlocal

|Home > World News > Sept11 > Article
It's a date etched in our memories as one of infamy and death. As part of the anniversary this week of the attack on the World Trade Center, The Sun-Herald asked Australians to reflect on that tragic day.
"Being in Washington at the time of the attacks highlighted the new scale of horror and terror that had been inflicted on an unsuspecting community. We all have our different recollections of that day, but for most of us the events of September 11 represented a watershed in our life's experience at such a shocking and unpredictable event."
"It was close to 11pm Eastern Standard Time and there was only a skeleton staff in the Channel10 newsroom, so I was on my own with a director in the earpiece, describing what was happening in New York. More staff headed into Ten's Pyrmont studios as the enormity of the event dawned. I think I always appreciated how fragile life can be, but the concept is now indelibly etched into my memory bank."
"I was in Sydney, staying at the Royal Automobile Club. I woke up early at 5am and switched on the television set. It was hard to believe and to grasp what was going on. A year on it affects me every time I get on board because the security aspects are there. [But] life goes on and we just continue to operate professionally. We've always operated with security in mind."
"I was at home in Greenwich and we were having building work done. The builder came in and said, 'Have you heard what's happening?'. He was shattered. We put on the TV and sat there watching it all happen. I couldn't believe it. I find now I have a lack of trust in a lot of foreign people. I was driving through the Harbour Tunnel yesterday morning thinking what are the chances of a bomb going off on the Harbour Bridge."
"I was on the tarmac at New York's JFK Airport at 8.30am on September 11, about to fly home to Los Angeles after covering the US Open. I got a call from my wife, who had been watching the early news. I and cameraman Andy Felton got off the flight and headed into Manhattan to cover the catastrophe. Because of our sudden departure from the American Airlines flight, we were red-flagged by the FBI as persons of interest and questioned. I still feel a sense of unease living in the US. At one stage you would have to go through four security checks just to get on a flight and that would include removing your shoes and belt and untucking your shirt. Extra security is everywhere, even in shopping malls, and it's a constant reminder. You always feel danger is never far away."
"I was in my studio working when I heard a report on the radio and rushed to turn on the television. I couldn't believe it. It made me think of the Middle East and the American policy there, which is so shallow. It is Gunsmoke diplomacy - if you are not a goodie on our side, you're a baddie, so bang-bang. The root of the whole thing is Palestine, and unless that is settled, things will go on and on."
"I was in Sydney's St Martins Tower when I heard the twin towers had been destroyed. I felt shocked and amazed and fascinated. I think that after that, nothing - when it comes to world tragedies - would shock me. I have a big window next to my screen at work and every time I look out there's planes taking off. One would only have to turn left or right and they would be right here. For two or three weeks after September11 I was really checking out the planes."
"I was at home in Sydney when my wife Di, who was watching CNN, alerted me to the drama unfolding in New York, which was our home for 10years. We were just transfixed. To describe the impact would be like saying the unsayable. Every cliche has been used to interpret the impact. When I lived there I remember thinking New Yorkers were imbued with a sense of self-confidence and a positive, can-do attitude. That cockeyed confidence has gone now, replaced with a feeling of vulnerability and weakness. You really do feel the fear in the US and in Europe - fortunately it's not so much the case here."
"At the time, I was attending a Statewide conference, a formal dinner at Penrith, and someone ran in and said, 'Get to a television set'. I sat there until 3am watching in horror and answering calls from interstate colleagues. September 11 affected me in a major way. I don't know if you'd call it an early midlife crisis but it's brought home the reality that family and friends are the most important things in life. The firefighting fraternity is a worldwide one. I still think of the 343 colleagues who died. I was initially told that virtually everyone I'd worked with in Manhattan at one stage had been killed. I went back this year to find that was actually wrong, but several of them did perish."
"My wife Lucy and I were at home watching The West Wing late on Tuesday, September 11, when I switched programs during the ad break to see live footage of the first tower in flames. We watched on as the second plane hit the second tower. Twelve months later I feel the same way I felt then - numb. It's hard to believe it actually happened. In July I visited New York and looked down into Ground Zero. The sterility of the scene erased none of the emotion that accompanies the memories of the buildings, the planes, the flames and the ultimate collapse. A sad start to a new century, but a reminder that, as Edmund Burke said, 'The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing'."
"I was woken up early in the morning by a text message from a friend saying, 'What's the world coming to?'. As a nurse, I'm used to tragedy, but this was something else. I had never worried about travelling before but now I think, gee, this could be my last flight. The ban on small items such as nail scissors is a constant reminder. I used to think Australia was so far away from everything but now I'm happy to be so far away. September 11 has made me think that family is more important. Telling people how much you care is really important."
"I was home in Port Macquarie and had just been told on the morning of September 11 that I had got this job at St Vincent's, so I was feeling good. When I was watching TV I got a news flash. I realised it was a terrorist attack and immediately rang my sister, who lives in lower Manhattan. The frightening thing was that we didn't know what it would lead to - whether there would be a nuclear attack in New York. Now I'm putting more time into visiting my sisters and their children in New York and London. Since September 11 I have also been more pessimistic about the future of the West. This is an enemy we didn't see during the Cold War. Along with the coming down of the Berlin Wall, this has been the most significant event since World War II."
"Like many other Australians, Helena and I woke to the morning radio coverage. We immediately turned on the television and were transfixed. It was a huge reminder of the vulnerability of our lives here on this planet. However, the outpourings of support for the victims' families strengthened my belief in the generosity of the human spirit. Most importantly, it has taught me that life is fragile and nothing should be taken for granted."
"I was returning that evening from a function at the Clayton RSL Club. I hurried to a TV and, like all who watched that night, was transfixed by the horror that was unfolding. Watching the people in the World Trade Center towers confront the prospect of their death had a profound impact on us all. In their last-minute phone calls and e-mails people didn't discuss careers, money or ambition. They talked of the importance of family and friends. They reminded us of what is really important. They made us pause from our busy lives to reconsider our values and goals."
"I was sleeping and my sister rang me and was very dramatic about it. She said 5,000 people had been killed in New York and I thought it was going to be the beginning of World War III. I was staying at a friend's [house], and I wanted to go home as soon as it happened and I just panicked. I thought, 'Where are the kids? I really thought people were going to start pushing buttons and bombs were going to go off everywhere, because it just seemed so unreasonable and so extreme. The next day I remember having the feeling of my security being threatened."
"I was in Sydney doing some promotional work, and I'd been out to dinner with some friends and I came back to the hotel and watched a bit of the late news. Sandra Sully came on with the update that a plane had run into the twin towers. I just watched the whole thing unfold in my hotel room. I didn't immediately think terrorists. I thought it was a pilot error, that some tragedy had happened in the air. I watched it most of the night and my husband called me. The next morning my friend rang and we went and had breakfast and it was just deserted on the street."
"I had been asleep for only a short time when my mobile phone rang. Geoff Dixon, the Qantas chief executive, was on the line. He was trying to explain what was happening and I thought he was having a nightmare. He insisted I switch on CNN and so I did. I was appalled and confused by what I was watching. It was horrific. At 4.20am, someone from Qantas called to tell me my brother-in-law, a Qantas pilot, and sister-in-law, a Qantas flight attendant, were in New York but he was not sure where they were. Thankfully, within an hour, we found out they were OK. Like me, many people knew someone who either died or was in New York on that day. What made the attacks so horrific was that they affected ordinary people doing ordinary things - working at their desks, walking along the street or having a coffee."
"I woke up and I remember turning on ABC Radio and hearing about this carnage in New York - I was frantically trying to understand what had happened. It sounded as if someone had declared war on the US. I turned on the television to see what was on the Today show, which had wall-to-wall coverage. It took a few minutes for me to register what I was seeing. Watching these planes flying into the towers, my reaction was one of disbelief. I was incredulous. I think the whole world has lost any remaining innocence it may have had. For me, personally, it's always in the back of my mind when I get on a plane, particularly when I am travelling internationally. I get less irritated by security checks at the airport now. We just have to accept that delays due to heightened security are a fact of travelling."
"I was alone at home on the phone to my best friend who urged me to switch on the late news. I had an instant feeling of disbelief and shock. I kept watching in a kind of morbid fascination trying to make some sense of it. When the second plane hit the tower I went upstairs and kissed my sleeping children."
"I had dinner at my mother and her boyfriend's house. I got home and my mother's boyfriend called me and said, 'Put the TV on because they've bombed the World Trade Center'. He had just turned on the television and at that point it wasn't quite clear what had happened. I stayed up all night watching the whole thing with my flatmate. I don't think my first thought was that it was terrorism. Initially, when they said it was a plane that had gone in, at that point I was wondering if it was just an accident. It was so horrific it was very hard to comprehend. I called my dad and another girlfriend and a friend who was in America. It was in the worst way compelling viewing. I'd been in New York the week before and I remember standing on the roof of the hotel that I was staying in and looking across at the twin towers and I said to a friend of mine, 'God, they look beautiful'."
"I was working in the restaurant at Momo and about 11 o'clock one of the waiters came in and said something awful had happened in the States, that apparently a plane had crashed into a building in New York. Three front-of-house staff members all had calls around the same time from their wives or partners. We were just all incredibly shocked. I rang a friend I was meeting for a late supper and asked if they'd heard what was going on. I just went home, turned the telly on and saw the whole thing. A very good friend was engaged to be married and then he called it off and this woman went to the States to pursue a job as a solicitor which led her to the World Trade Center, and I think she was on the 70th or 80th floor, and she was lost. I think most people are touched in some kind of way, but just the whole horrific thing is pretty hard to grasp."
