|This article presents an original piece of research which uses an innovative approach to researching online chat. The methodology involved collecting interactions in a cybercafe for children ages 3 – 13, and included recording the offline interactions between friends who were also interacting online. Research on chatrooms has rarely included simultaneous online and offline interactions, and has not considered children's interactions in cyberspace in this context.

Chevrolet Repair Questions? Ask a Chevy Mechanic for Answers ASAP
Hello & Welcome,
Where are you grounding the computer for restart ? case ? terminal ?
I believe you are going to find that you have a faulty FICM (fuel injection control module).To verify this would take the use of a scan tool looking at the data where trying to start engine.
First take a look at this info for a " chafed wiring harness".
09-06-04-034: Malfunction Indicator Lamp (MIL) Illuminated, Fuel Injector Driver Circuit DTCs and Cylinder Bank Shut Down DTCs, Reduced Engine Power (Repair Fuel Injector Control Module (FICM) Harness Chafed Wires) - (Aug 17, 2009)
This condition may be caused by the fuel injector control module (FICM) wiring harness protective conduit rubbing against the back of the alternator, the alternator bracket or the FICM harness retaining bracket. This may result in the conduit rubbing through, exposing the wires inside and chafing of the wire insulation then occurs.
Note: For Silverado and Sierra models only perform Step 5.
Important: DO NOT break off the tab on the electrical connectors.
Note: Some of these chafes are very small, possibly the size of a pen tip, but could still cause injector circuit concerns.
If necessary, peel the tape from the area and look for ANY chafes into the wires.
Note: For Silverado and Sierra models only perform Step 11.

Veterans Home Maintains Federal Funding
09/27/12 7:34AM By Susan Keese
| Download MP3
The Vermont Veterans Home in Bennington will not lose its Medicare and Medicaid funding.
After a six-month struggle to correct a string of violations, a final inspection completed Wednesday found the home in compliance with federal rules.
Veterans Home Administrator Melissa Jackson says everyone cheered when they learned the home will keep its federal certification.
"It was a huge sigh of relief," Jackson said. "But I see it as a new day here, where we go and look at every system and everything we're doing so we're never in this situation again."
The problems began during the home's annual inspection in March: a veteran was hurt falling out of bed and his alarm was found to be unplugged.
In April a veteran who was incontinent was sent on an appointment without the necessary help.
Jackson says as violations were corrected, new ones kept emerging: failure to report derogatory comments, improper procedure while dressing a wound.
But this time -- with the loss of twelve million federal dollars annually looming at week's end -- the home was found to be in compliance.
Caregiver John Dunham says that understaffing at the home remains an unsolved problem.
He and other caregivers say they've had to work 16-hour double shifts at times. Now that the home's future is secure, Dunham says he's been assured that the issue will be studied and the union will be heard.
"We're optimistic we can find a compromise that will work for everybody," Dunham says.
The consulting group that's been working with the home will stay. Among the issues they'll examine is whether better scheduling can assure that every shift has the right number of caregivers.
Vermont Human Resources Commissioner Kate Duffy says the state will also stay involved.
"We're going to continue these same things that got us to this good result," the Commissioner vowed. "That's looking at our processes, looking at education, looking at some leadership development. So it's not over."
Even in the recent case in which a caregiver allegedly punched a resident, the home's response received passing marks. The caregiver is on indefinite administrative leave while the incident is under investigation.

Excellent but a tad pricey
Great Ambiance & Decor, Food was really good as well but a little pricey. They have unique dishes. Had the Pork Chops which were delicious but slightly overcooked, Sweet Potato Mash was great along with the fried onions.
They offer Sandwiches as well, one of my guests had the smoked meat sandwich, looked a little disappointing, for those who are used to the over stuffed traditional smoked meat sandwich will be disappointed.
Decor is really nice kinda like a Modern 70′s look.
I would definitely go back, the service was excellent!

Oikos University is a small, nondescript one-story brick building located in an office-park neighborhood near the Oakland airport.
At the center of allegations about a political cover-up is a nondescript Edwardian terraced house in West London.
It's a small town of roughly 140,000 people with a collection of low-slung, nondescript buildings.
"He was kind of nondescript," recalls a former co-worker who turned down a dinner date.
Twenty minutes before the concert started, he was popping a nondescript pill.
It was not, however, ventured on; and the nondescript animal was still confined to the windows of "the Macaroni print shops."
The nondescript knew two Miss Dorrits; one who was born inside—That was the one!
A nondescript suit of the day-labourer type and a few deft touches of coal dust completed his make-up.
He was dressed in the nondescript costume he had worn at their first meeting.
The site of the world-renowned hanging gardens is now marked by a series of nondescript lumps.

Montreal, Can (Jun. 17)
(Jewish Daily Bulletin)
More than two hundred thousand dollars have been raised in the Keren Hayesod campaign in Canada, according to the report of S. J. Rodman, secretary of the Campaign. It is expected that an additional $50,000 will be raised in the Dominion.
Many cities over-subscribed their quotas and in some places the sum contributed exceeded by one hundred percent that of last year, Mr. Rodman stated.
A delegation composed of Mrs. A. J. Freiman, Chairman. S. J. Rodman and Rabbi J. L. Zlotnik, returning from a tour of Western Canada, reported that the Palestine sentiment is strong in every community. In numerous towns every resident contributed to the Fund.
The Jewish National Fund campaign is planned to take place during the month of September.
Rabbi Gerson B. Levi of The Temple, Chicago, a member of the Board of the Travelers' Aid Society announced that that organization has added 150 volunteers for the work of directing travelers in the railroad station in Chicago during the Eucharistic Congress.
"Of course the Eucharistic Congress has its own information booths and aids in the stations." said Rabbi Levi, "but because of the magnitude of the event and the great number of travelers, we thought that because of our experience in this work, we could help best by augmenting our regular forces. For that purpose we put 150 volunteers to work, and believe that with all these agencies at work, visitors to Chicago will have no trouble in finding themselves properly directed."

Story by Matt Gonzales
Throughout the world, more than 267,000 high school students call themselves Key Clubbers. They come from all different backgrounds, experiences and levels of academic achievement.
That's a big part of what makes Key Club special: No matter who you are or where you're from, Key Club has a place for you.
But at Silver Sands School in Okaloosa County, Florida, something really special is happening.
Focusing on abilities, not disabilities
Silver Sands is a school for students with developmental disabilities. In addition to cognitive limitations, many of its students have visual, hearing and other impairments. But that didn't stop them from successfully starting a new Key Club last October.
The Silver Sands Key Club is one of only a few Key Clubs in the world that has been chartered at schools for students with disabilities. For the club's members, the Key Club core value of inclusiveness has special meaning.
"The students at Silver Sands are so accustomed to having others help them," says Kaye McKinley, member of the Fort Walton Beach Kiwanis Club and co-founder of the Silver Sands Key Club. "It seemed like a great idea to give them the opportunity to help others."
Rallying the troops
Freeman narrowed down her list to 19 students who were good candidates for first-year Key Club membership. Each student was invited, and each one accepted the invitation.
Within weeks, the Silver Sands Key Club members began working on their first service project: Trick-or-Treat for UNICEF. The group raised US$462.99, all of which went to The Eliminate Project: Kiwanis eliminating maternal and neonatal tetanus.
Spreading their wings
At one of the Florida District's Key Club Spring Zone rallies, the Silver Sands officers got their first chance to mix and mingle with Key Clubbers from other schools.
"It was the first time our kids were really involved with other members," Freeman says. "They were really interactive, and the other kids were helpful and inclusive. Our members came away proud and confident."
That confidence has carried over at school. The members of the Silver Sands Key Club seem to walk the hallways with their chins a little higher, exuding a newfound sense of self-esteem.
"It's nice to see them so proud," Freeman says. "This is something that has made them feel good about themselves. And the kids who aren't in Key Club are all asking about how they can join next year."
Club president Kyle Peagues says being part of Key Club has been one of his best high school experiences.
"We get to get together, serve others and meet new people," he says. "It feels good. We get to help people, and I feel proud of myself."
How do you encourage inclusiveness in your club? Leave a comment below for the chance to be featured in the September 2013 issue of Key Club magazine.

I've just noticed the following issue when trying to log out of my user account:
1.- I enter FlashDen, and then log in into my account. 2.- I switch to any other marketplace, like video Hive, or any other. 3.- Now, when I decide to log out, this only affects the current site i'm on, which means that if I go back to any of the others visited when i was logged in, I'm still logged in.
I think that this is a serious security issue, specially for those of us who use a shared computer.
Yes, I know that I can go visit each of the sites and hit "log out", but this is slow, uncomfortable and weird, in my opinion.
Login once across the entire marketplace is very nice, so I think that log out should work the same.
Hope to hear from you people!
Wow your right! How have I not noticed this before????
We should be able to logout from all aswell as login from all, craaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazy
I totally agree, was gobsmacked when I first discovered this myself. I can understand technically why it is like it is.
Yup, looks like if you don't visit the other sites it wont log you in.
Try visiting another envato site from a new window (ie: no referral url)
If there is an envato site in the referral url it will redirect you to the login box and then back to the site and log you in.
So you don't have to go to each and every site and log out if you haven't visited those sites.
Would be nice to have a logout once, logout everywhere feature tho.
I agree… I figured out this one too a while ago… I hope the new design will log out in all Marketplace .
It will when they see this!
I agree… I figured out this one too a while ago… I hope the new design will log out in all Marketplace .
Hey.. what about the new site design? I thought it should have hit us half july. Too bad it's not there still..
Hey.. what about the new site design? I thought it should have hit us half july. Too bad it's not there still..
To be honest after some of the disasters we've had with recent new features I'm quite relieved that they are not rushing the process just to meet deadline.
I'd like to see the new design be a positive thing with as few issues as possible rather than 1 million and 1 hickups and some very disgruntled authors and buyers.
I know the whole team are working like trojans to get it up and running, so it she be more than worth the wait


text: A few years ago, Halla San was a lively restaurant that served authentic Korean cuisine (I know, I lived in Korea). My favorite WAS the bulgogi. The proprietor, Jeannie, was always friendly and attentive. I am so sad to say that this is no longer case... We were the only patrons there and the food and service were sub-standard at best. In fact it had an eerie feel, perhaps succombing to the decrepitness of the surroundings. Unfortunately, I highly recommend you do not go here.

When Patrick Crane left LinkedIn in 2010, the social media expert was planning to take a break from the work world and the frenetic pace of Silicon Valley startup culture.
He didn't get to recharge his batteries for long. Almost as soon as Crane's open-ended sabbatical began, he was the target of a recruitment effort -- though not from another social networking company or hot new Internet-based startup. Crane's suitor was Sungevity, a solar-panel leasing company based in Oakland, Calif.
Before agreeing to sign on, however, Crane decided to check out the company in a more fundamental way -- as a customer. As SolveClimate News's Maria Gallucci writes:
He filled out a free online Sungevity iQuote, punching in his roof specifics, electricity usage and other household details. In less than 24 hours, the company calculated the roof's pitch and orientation to the sun and emailed Crane a design of his solar array without ever stepping foot in his San Francisco Bay Area home.The quote tallied how much money the panels would save on electricity bills. And it stated that, at no cost to Crane, he could lease an installation from Sungevity, skipping out on tens of thousands of dollars in upfront costs.
And like that, Crane was sold on Sungevity not only as a customer, but as the company's next chief marketing officer. He tells SolveClimate News, "I felt in my bones that solar is a social phenomenon. Solar is not a bunch of black panels on a roof. Solar is a lifestyle."
A lifestyle that Crane believes can be effectively communicated via social media. His mission is to raise Sungevity's profile by, among other things, getting current users to spread the word about the "Rooftop Revolution" in the hopes that it will attract new solar customers.
Crane -- who still has a LinkedIn profile, by the way -- tells SolveClimate News that his company plans to develop web- and mobile-based apps designed to allow customers to monitor their systems and communicate with other solar-panel owners:
"They geek out over solar. The more you empower them to have those conversations, the greater the referral rates climb," he said.
Sungevity's installations currently are centered in the Southwest part of the U.S., but the company is in the middle of a big marketing push on the East Coast. According to SolveClimate News, the company has only 5% of current solar installations in the U.S., trailing two other Bay Area companies, SunRun (with 26% market share) and SolarCity (13%).
But Sungevity is growing. The company just announced it will stay in Oakland and plans to expand its office space to accommodate hundreds of new workers.

Discovery workshops offer Hampton educator high-tech collaboration
Erin Prosser knows the way to a child's mind is through a computer. A librarian and media specialist in the Hampton School District, Prosser uses technology to make topics relevant to elementary school students.
"My students come to school with the knowledge of computers in their daily life," said Prosser, 35, of Plum. "It's my job to help them use technology to succeed in life."
Prosser has traveled across the country each of the past three years to take part in the Discovery Education Network Summer Institute. Hosted by Discovery Education -- the group behind the Discovery Channel and Animal Planet -- the six-day program shows teachers different techniques and resources they can use in their classrooms.
This year, four Western Pennsylvania teachers were among nearly 80 from across the country to attend the workshop in Silver Spring, Md. Joining Prosser were Linda Michael, an elementary technology coach in the Connellsville Area School District; Jan Abernethy, a fifth-grade teacher in the Greenville Area School District; and Traci Blazosky, a first-grade teacher in the Clarion Area School District.
"It's rewarding just getting to network with other educators from across the country," said Michael, of Connellsville. "I'm hoping to collaborate with other teachers, including one I met from Canada. Hopefully, we can work on some projects together."
In addition to the networking opportunity, teachers participated in workshops. One, for instance, taught teachers how to combine music and images to have students make music videos. Other workshops focused on visual storytelling, which lets students use flip cameras -- an inexpensive video camera -- to create movies to tell their stories.
"Anything involving technology, these kids just eat up," Prosser said. "It's great for them to use technology to be creative and use their critical thinking skills."
Michael said she'll continue to use the writing prompts, quizzes and other technological tools she learns at the workshops in her third, fourth and fifth-grade classes.
"Kids learn so well with digital media," Michael said. "When I went to school, we didn't have computers like they do. Now as teachers, we need to keep up with those skills and make learning fun."

RESIDENTS enjoyed a community fun day in Corringham.
A community street party, held in Andersons and The Acres, was attended by residents young and old - some of the partygoers have even lived in the road since the first homes were built 50 years ago.
They took part in an international themed fancy dress competition and also had a visit from the Mayor of Thurrock Yash Gupta.
Phil Anderson, Conservative councillor for Corringham, said: "There was a great atmosphere at the community event, which was organised by local residents themselves. It was fantastic to see everybody going to such effort, meeting their neighbours and donning fancy dress.
"These events are a great way of bringing people together across the generations, and are something we need to do more in Thurrock. Street parties for your neighbourhood are one can organise, there are no licenses required. The council can help arrange road closures and community forums may be able to help with insurance."

A red-flag warning is in effect through Sunday afternoon due to the low-humidity Santa Ana winds, according to the National Weather Service.
The NWS is predicting gusts nearing 65 m.p.h. With the higher temperatures, high winds, and low humidity, Southern California is on alert for wildfires, San Bernardino County fire officials said.
�Fire is and always has been a natural part of our landscape and is now a year-round reality in San Bernardino County,� county Fire Chief Mark Hartwig said in a previous statement. �This means that both firefighters and residents have to be on heightened alert for the threat of wildfire.�
fire safety tips
The San Bernardino County fire department urged residents to be alert during the hazardous weather:
Report any sign of smoke immediately to your local fire department by dialing 9-1-1.
Use extreme caution when operating spark or flame producing machinery in hazardous grass or brush areas.
Have a wildfire action plan in place if you live in a brush-heavy area; and report any suspicious persons or vehicles to law enforcement.
Information provided by the San Bernardino County Fire Department.
A red-flag warning was issued in October, sending fire officials into a proactive scramble readying themselves for the worst possible firestorm scenario.
San Bernardino County fared pretty well but not without its challenges.
County firefighters responded to 10 vegetation fires in the San Bernardino Valley and one in the mountains. With the additional staffing, fire crews were able to contain and extinguish the fires quickly, the largest fire burning 3 � acres west of Crestline.
Fire officials advise homeowners to create defensible space around their home by clearing all dead or dying vegetation from the ground, roofs, underneath decks and around propane tanks. Cleaning out rain gutters and moving wood piles at least 30 feet from structures are also suggested.
Temperatures are expected to peak on Monday and Tuesday near 80 degrees before dropping back to normal seasonal levels, according to NWS forecasts.

India scored a thrilling five-run victory in the first One-day International on Saturday in this port city, where some 4,000 people have died in political and sectarian violence over the last five years.
But not a stone was hurled at the players by the capacity crowd of 33,000 in the National Stadium and "no anti-India slogans were chanted", police said after the dramatic resumption of cricketing ties between the South Asian rivals.
The fans proved to be "most sporting crowd," city police chief Asad Ashraf Malik said, after fears of terrorism were expressed ahead of the match at the start of India's first tour of Pakistan in 14 years.
"Karachiites have proved that they are peace-loving people and could have hosted a Test match as well."
India refused to play a Test in Karachi over security concerns, saying they did not want to stay for long in the city.
But Malik said: "The people's behaviour in such a hot and humid day was excellent and hats off to them."
Fans applauded both teams throughout the match, clapping every run and every wicket. Many spectators painted their faces with colours of their national flags, while some were even seen carrying the flags of both India and Pakistan.
However security was tough for the match both inside and outside the ground.
"We were on duty for three days. We came here at dawn on Saturday. Our job was to keep an eye on the fans," police constable Mohammad Ramzan said.
"I am happy and relaxed everything was perfect. I can now go back to my home and take some rest."
The provincial Government declared Saturday a holiday and most roads were deserted throughout the day. Private clubs and restaurants made special arrangements to show the match on huge screens.
"Cricket fans are mad about the game. They are not so stupid that they would attack the team and its players," a woman fan said.
"We consider them our guests whether they are Indians or Australians."
Shopkeeper Mohammad Usman said: "Peace and not merely cricket won in Karachi on Saturday.
"Yes, there have been some incidents of terrorism by a few militants, but the majority of people of this city are peaceful and it should not be potrayed as a 'city of followers of Al-Qaeda'."
Karachi was hit by two suicide car bombings in 2002, which killed several foreigners as well as Pakistanis. Eleven French engineers died in an attack outside the Sheraton hotel on May 8, 2002.
The New Zealand and South African cricket teams have refused to play matches in Karachi.
"You cannot judge the city because of a few bomb blasts and sectarian-related killings," said social worker Abdus Sattar Edhi.
"There is another side of the city as well and the way thousands of people cheered for Indians and Pakistan players could be an eye-opener for those who refused to play here."
He added: "The peace-loving people have welcomed the cricketers as well as politicians like Priyanka Gandhi."
Priyanka, daughter of slain Indian premier Rajiv Gandhi, watched the match and signed autographs for dozens of fans.

Argentina's recent decision to expropriate and nationalize its largest energy company, YPF (NYSE:YPF) has sent shock waves throughout the energy-investment community all across South America.
Deeming the oil industry one of "national public interest," Argentinean President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner's government will now own and operate 51% of YPF, with majority owner Spain's Repsol YPF (OTCBB:REPYF) seeing its stake dwindle to just 6%. The remaining assets of YPF will be divided among federal agencies and provincial governments.
Overall, the Argentinean government accused the oil company of not investing enough back into its local fields and criticized it for not producing enough oil. Energy imports into South America's third-largest economy rose nearly 110% last year.
The country's actions set a dangerous precedent.
Locally, what's at stake is Argentina's 774 trillion cubic feet of technically recoverable shale gas and unconventional reserves, the largest in Latin America. The nation is not alone in its populist momentum. Bolivia recently moved to expropriate a local unit of a Spanish power-grid operator, and Venezuela's nationalization ambitions are well-known. Meanwhile, populist politics continue to rule investment decisions in Nicaragua and Ecuador.
Many natural-resource hunters have practically given up on Latin America as these worries persist. Nonetheless, for every Argentina or Venezuela that has begun to unwind decades of progress, there are plenty of Latin American nations that recognize the importance of foreign capital, especially in the energy sector. For investors, the continent still offers many opportunities.
A Wealth Of Reserves
Despite heightened tensions in a few nations, new oil and natural gas discoveries are drawing investors into Latin America in spades. As maturing conventional oil fields dwindle and energy demand surges, exploration efforts across the continent continue to intensify.
There are several reasons to be bullish on the region.
According to the Latin American Energy Organization (OLADE), proven reserves across LATAM currently make up around 20% of all global oil reserves. And that number doesn't even include all of the unconventional and offshore deepwater potential of the region. Brazil's deepwater Tupi formation alone, located 2,000 meters below the surface of the sea, may be enough to boost current Brazilian oil and gas reserves by over 50%. The area is estimated to have five to eight billion barrels of recoverable light oil and natural gas in its pre-salt reservoirs.
The potential doesn't stop with the BRIC leader. Colombia has emerged as Latin America's fourth-biggest oil exporter as it has roughly doubled production since 2006. The nation is close to hitting its target of one million barrels per day after $5.08 billion worth of foreign direct investment flowed into the oil sector last year. The nation is partnering with various companies to beef up its pipeline and exporting infrastructure. Peru also has the potential to become a significant producer of hydrocarbons due to its vast untapped reserves. According to the Oil & Gas Journal, Peru had 582 million barrels of proven oil reserves in January 2012. The bulk of these are onshore and can be tapped using advanced drilling methods such as hydraulic fracturing. Those new drilling techniques, along with the opening of South America's first liquefied natural gas (LNG) export terminal, have enabled Peru to become a natural gas exporter despite rising domestic consumption.
Finally, Uruguay has begun to explore its offshore potential. While the nation doesn't feature the same pre-salt geography as its neighbor Brazil, officials there are hopeful that Uruguay could harbor its own "elephant find." The country recently began accepting bids on 15 different blocks offered for exploration.
Portfolio Options
While there are some worrisome situations, the region's long-term potential for oil and gas is certainly there, and the bulk of the continent's countries have embraced foreign investment in the energy sector. For investors, the region's future as a major energy producer is just too good to ignore.
Several publicly traded energy companies, such as OGX Petroleo e Gas Participacoes (OTCBB:OGXPY) are available for purchase. However, the only direct ways to play the region are through Brazilian energy giant Petroleo Brasileiro (NYSE:PBR), known as Petrobras, and Colombia's Ecopetrol (NYSE:EC).
Pumping out more than 2.7 million barrels of oil equivalent a day, Petrobras is one of the largest energy producers on the planet. However, like the other super-majors, the company has been experiencing dwindling production from its legacy fields. That's why it has unveiled one of the largest CAPEX plans in history.
Between 2011 and 2015, Petrobras plans to spend a record $224.7 billion on exploration to tap Brazil's deep-sea oil deposits and more than double production by the end of the decade, to about 6.42 million barrels per day. Already, that spending has trickled down to various service providers, such as FMC Technologies (NYSE:FTI) and Oceaneering International (NYSE:OII).
As I've noted before, that sort of higher CAPEX spending is a necessary evil for energy companies and essential to long-term growth. Because of this high spending, now could be a good time to strike on shares of the Petrobras. Since the broader Brazilian market has been flat or down for almost two years, Petrobras has also been on the decline for the same time period. So shares that cost around $42 at the beginning of 2010 now trade for half that, at a forward P-E of just 7.
While Petrobras is the continent's energy stalwart, Ecopetrol is the fast mover. Responsible for the bulk of Colombia's energy production, the company has seen its proven net reserves grow by 63% over the last three years. Meanwhile, the company has continually improved earnings on the back of its rising production.
Despite the fact that shares have surged since Ecopetrol's recent earnings win, the stock can still be had for less than its historical P-E of 16.5. Add the company's 3.3% dividend yield and you have recipe for Latin American energy success.

2012 Fontana: Panther DRR IndyCar Race Recap
Posted by: newsla on Sep 16, 2012 - 12:04 PM
2012 Fontana: Panther DRR IndyCar Race Recap
Fast Facts:
⢠Although Servia qualified 18th yesterday he started 8th due to the other cars in front him that were issued 10-grid spot penalties for unapproved engine changes.
⢠Oriol got a good start, but dropped a couple of positions as he worked on making adjustments to get his car more comfortable. He came in for the first time on Lap 37 for fuel, tires and a turn of front wing. He was P18 when he came in and filtered out to P21.
⢠On Lap 57, Servia came in on Lap 57 for fuel and tires. He was P14 after the stop. Unfortunately the left front tire got loose and a Panther DRR crew member had to go over the wall to get the tire. As a result, Oriol had to serve a drive thru penalty on Lap 67 for an illegal person that went over the wall causing him to go a lap down.
⢠On Lap 76, Servia stayed out and got the wave around. On Lap 82, he was back on the lead lap and sat in 17th position. After the Lap 85 restart he kept moving up and gained a number of positions.
⢠The caution came out on Lap 108 and Oriol came into the pits on Lap 110, for fuel, tires, and a tire pressure adjustment. He filtered out to P11.
⢠Trouble would set in on Lap 132. Servia had to come into pit lane because the water temperatures were too high. Rubber got stuck in the radiator causing the water temperature to rise. He went from P13 to P17 and went down a lap as a result.
⢠The problem continued throughout the race and he had to come in on Lap 160, 185, 203, and 219. Every time he came in the No. 22 crew had to blow out the rubber that was stuck in the radiator as well as fill the car full of fuel and switch to a new set of tires. Servia finished the day 19 laps down and brought the car home in 19th position.
⢠Yesterday, Servia qualified 18th for the MAVTV 500 at Auto Club Speedway in Fontana, California. He was 12th in line and secured a spot on the grid with a two-lap average qualifying speed of 212.533 mph (Lap 1-212.818 mph, Lap 2-212.250 mph). During yesterday morning's practice session, Oriol was 21st fastest and logged a total of 27 laps. For the second practice session, Servia was the 10th quickest and completed a total of 35 laps.
⢠Oriol had the opportunity to test at Auto Club Speedway on Wednesday. The team logged in a number of laps and as a result, reached the limit on miles on the Chevy engine, so he has a fresh engine for this weekend. This put Oriol on his fifth engine so he did not receive an engine penalty.
⢠This weekend marked Servia's sixth start at Auto Club Speedway (two of the six starts were in the Indy Lights championship where he finished 25th in 1998 and 14th in 1999, clinching the Indy Lights championship). Oriol competed at the track from 2000-2002. Hisbest finish was fifth in the 2002 CART race and his best start of 16th in 2000.
⢠For the last three years Servia has called Santa Monica, California home. He moved out west with his girlfriend Jackie at the end of 2008 and the couple still lives in California, which will make this weekend a "homecoming" for the Spaniard.
⢠In nine races, Servia has gained a total of 107 positions (7 positions in St. Pete to finish 16th, 13 positions in Barber to finish 13th, 7 positions in Long Beach to finish 16th, 12 positions in Brazil to finish 11th, 23 positions in Indianapolis to finish 4th, 11 positions in Detroit to finish 5th, 16 positions in Milwaukee to finish 4th, 9 positions in Toronto to finish 5th , and 9 positions in Baltimore to finish 7th).
⢠Since making the switch to Chevy power, Panther DRR and Oriol Servia have earned five top-ten results (four of them being top-five results) in ten races, tying with a season best of fourth place at the Indianapolis 500 and in Detroit.
⢠Motegi Racing was the primary livery on the No. 22 machine this weekend. Through technical partnerships with leading professional racing teams, Motegi Racing Competition and High Performance Tuning wheels are designed and engineered for performance. Motegi Racing is owned by Wheel Pros, one of the largest suppliers of branded custom wheels, performance tires and related accessories for cars, SUVs and light trucks.
⢠Last year, Oriol finished fourth in IZOD IndyCar Series standings....Recorded 11 top-10 finishes, with a best of second at New Hampshire and Baltimore....Among three drivers to be running at the finish in all 17 races..... Led all drivers in laps completed (2,103 of 2,011)....Oriol was the only driver to finish in the top 10 in first five races of the season.
Panther DRR
⢠This weekend marked the team's fifth time to compete at the temporary street circuit. In 2002, Memo Gidley started 27th and finished 21st. In 2003, Robbie Buhl started the race 6th and finished 10th and Sarah Fisher started 15th and finished 18th. In 2004, Felipe Giaffone started the race 19th and finished 8th. In 2005, Roger Yasukawa started the race 20th and finished 16th.
⢠It was announced in May that the Indianapolis-based squad has united with two-time IndyCar Series champion Panther Racing to form a strategic alliance on Oriol Servia's entry for the remainder of the 2012 season. The No. 22 Panther/DRR team will utilize Panther's second Chevrolet engine lease and work in conjunction with the No. 4 National Guard team and driver JR Hildebrand.
ORIOL SERVIA, NO. 22 PANTHER/DREYER AND REINBOLD RACING CHEVROLET, QUALIFIED 18TH: ON THE RACE: "At the end...we struggled a little bit with the car at the beginning of the weekend. But in the race, I really liked my car. But we had something strange happen, we were having all this debris getting the radiator. We didn't want to blow our beautiful engine, so we had to keep stopping because it was getting over heated. Our race was over then. We had to stop every 10-15 laps to clean the radiator. Strange. We had a couple of strange things this year. Filter, fuel and things that usually don't happen. A few more DNFs than we want. We had a great season, especially since we got the Chevy power behind us, definitely. Good season. We want much more, but we had some strong runs. Hopefully we can come back next year stronger."

The USDA ARS Cropping Systems and Water Quality Research Unit has been nationally recognized for environmental stewardship of electronics with awards including a Gold Level award in 2007* and Silver Level award in 2006* in the Federal Electronics Challenge.
The Federal Electronics Challenge* encourages federal facilities and agencies to purchase greener electronic products, reduce impacts of electronic products during use and manage obsolete electronics in an environmentally safe way.
USDA ARS CSWQRU was also a winner in the 2006-2007 and 2005-2006 Electronics Reuse and Recycling Campaigns* in the small facility (150 employees or fewer), midwest region, civilian category. Starting on America Recycles Day, November 15, and for a four-month period, federal facilities competed to see who could reuse and recycle the most computers and other electronics.
CSWQRU donates obsolete computer systems through the Computers for Learning program to the only high school group in Missouri recognized as Microsoft ?Authorized Refurbishers--the "Students Working to Advance Technology" or "SWAT" Team at North Callaway High School in Kingdom City, Missouri. The SWAT Team refurbishes used computers which then have a second life in schools.

Mariner Mexican Riviera Thanksgiving: Mariner of the Seas Cruise Review by TLex
Overall Member Rating
Mariner Mexican Riviera Thanksgiving
Destination: Mexican Riviera
Embarkation: Los Angeles
A. Just as beautiful as Voyager (we were on Voyager last January), perhaps in a little better condition because it's newer.
B. I'll skip details of the Pacific (Mexican Riviera) itinerary unless someone specifically asks. After all, this ship will (eventually, next Nov 2011)sail out of Galveston. Kept telling folks (jocularly), when they asked why we flew from Texas to LA, that we were "test driving her" to see if she'd work out in Galveston. She does, believe me, she does. We can see why our West Coast friends are as disheartened as we were when Rhapsody pulled out Texas in 2007.
C. Obviously, the ship's entertainment and ambience was keyed to "West Coasters" because the vast majority came from Southern California and up and down the West Coast. But I spoke with the HD and More other officers and I suspect that the focus will change, initially to accommodate the cruises to South America and from Brazil, then the Mediterranean (Mariner will be home ported in Citavechhia [Rome] and do mostly Holy Land and eastern Mediterranean cruises), and finally Texas.
D. We were in 1320 (OS) and I'd previously booked it for this cruise in Mar 2012 (w/o mentioning to DW). So I was glad that she decided on Day 4 that she really liked the Mariner and suggested we book it for Spring Break 2012. Without engendering the age old dispute over whether to get a suite or not, our preference is fewer cruises, larger suite. It's larger than early Voyager ships (= Navigator), very ample space and accommodation. We loved the balcony and whirlpool Jacuzzi and used each a lot.
E. Can't comment much on the ports. Our "destination" was, in fact, the ship. I enjoyed the Premier Yacht cruise at Cabo. Otherwise, when folks disembarked at Mazatlan and Puerto Vallarta, we enjoyed all of the ship venues in relative peace! The older children's pgm for our dau (12) was essentially nonexistent: most of the pre-teens/teens went to other venues. BTW: 967 children on board, not a single problem from our observations. All very well behaved.
F. Food in MDR was actually very good but our expectations are not to dine on gourmet offerings but rather food that's properly cooked and relatively tasty. So we were not disappointed. Unfortunately, we had one bad experience and as much as we loved this ship, I hate to report it but will with an understanding that each person's experience differs. We'd been to Portofino on Voyager and were interested in trying something else especially since DW insisted that the quality didn't seem as high on the second visit. So we went to Chops on Day 4. First, don't eat at Johnny Rockets in the afternoon and then Chops at night unless you have cast iron digestive system. And don't attend receptions earlier either unless you have a lot more fortitude than us. But most of all, do not spend $25pp plus an (extra) tip for Chops if you are expecting a top quality steak. My New York strip was suitable for hiking: it was tough, chewy, and tasteless even though it had been cooked to medium well. My DW's 16 oz. rib eye was not much better. Now, we know from the boards that many others have enjoyed great dining in Chops, and, no, $25 pp does not even begin to compare to the cost of dining at Ruth's Chris, Morton's and other fine steakhouses. But we actually found our steak in the MDR to be better tasting and of no better quality than the Chops steak (which, BTW, you can "buy" for $14.95 in the MDR). Maybe they had a bad night; maybe they didn't get a good shipment. The appetizers were fantastic and perhaps worth the cover charge alone as were the desserts. But for the money, we'll stick with the MDR or Windjammer on our 2012 cruise.
G. Sadly, Mariner will lose a lot of the people from which we received stellar service, especially some of the bartenders and waiters. Brazil apparently requires a certain percentage of the staff either be from Brazil or fluent in Portuguese and so they will have to replace the current staff with additional Portuguese speaking personnel. Many are going to depart before Mariner leaves for the TA to Italy. So we don't know how many will return to Texas but many of the folks from Caribbean nations told me that they hope to be assigned to Mariner in November 2011. Less

Cabin review: OS1320 Owner's Suite
The Owners Suite (1320) was a magnificent cabin, clearly larger than on Voyager, at 614 square feet, ample closet space, drawers, bins, storage, etc. Loved the head (bath) with separate whirlpool Jacuzzi tub, shower (always had ample hot water!), bidet, toilet, and double sinks. Dining table was larger and had 4, not 2, chairs and the furniture had obviously been upgraded because the sofa and chairs were spotless and modern and we loved the new wicker furniture on the balcony (two chaise lounges, two chairs and table). It's a monstrous room and we want that with the 42" plasma swivel TV, stereo and DVD/CD system, special lighting, and bar. Even though it's located right off the hallway from elevators, it was quiet and tranquil. Only "complaint" was that we occasionally got some very, very bad odors that allegedly emanated from the latrine on Deck 11 above us but they would "pass" quickly and for future cruise, we may bring air fresheners!Read All Owner's Suite (OS) Reviews >>

LUDWIGSBURG, GERMANY - DECEMBER 05: Marco Huck of Germany and his team waits for the walk in for his WBO World Championship Cruiserweight titel fight against Ola Afolabi of Great Britain at the Arena Ludwigsburg on December 5, 2009 in Ludwigsburg, Germany. (Photo by Alexander Hassenstein/Bongarts/Getty Images)
A very intriguing heavyweight title fight has been added to the calendar for the first part of 2012. WBO cruiserweight champion Marco Huck (34-1, 25 KOs) will challenge the WBA heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin (23-0, 16 KOs) in Stuttgart's Porsche-Arena on February 25, 2012. Both rivals have now struck an agreement. "This will be the Heavyweight Fight of the Year without a doubt," commented Kalle Sauerland. "There will be more action in this fight than we have seen in Heavyweight World Championship fights in many years. Two real gladiators with both speed and power: Huck has proven himself as the number one Cruiserweight in the world with hands of steel; Povetkin as the most exciting Heavyweight prospect seen since a young Tyson, and who last year crushed Chagaev to realise his dream of becoming World Champion. Speaking as a boxing fan who has missed big action heavyweight championship fights – the waiting is over!! I am not sure how long the fight will last but...

Regional Reviews: Connecticut & the Berkshires
Regional Reviews by Fred Sokol
The Understudy
Benator's Harry, more than vexed that he could not land a film role (but claiming not to be bitter) is around to rehearse a Kafka play, an opus lasting well over three hours. On stage, too, is Jake (Matthew Montelongo), a movie actor who, himself, will not be the main man in the Kafka. Husky and hunky, Jake sees Harry as an annoyance. Benator, by the way, has a lanky and slinky body type. Let us say that the men have issues.
Harry is taken by surprise when he finds that the stage manager, Roxanne (Jayne Paterson), is the woman he almost married but walked away from shortly before the wedding. Jayne, a former actor, has her own huge problems with unseen Laura (tech director) who cannot get anything straight because she is tanking up in the booth on all sorts of drugs. Laura manages to foul up all of Jayne's requests including set changes and suitable lighting. Thrown into this mix is a moment when Harry is absent and Jayne and Jake seize the opportunity for a hard and possibly passionate kiss.
It is Rob Ruggiero's purpose, as director, to maximize Rebeck's clever, fast-paced humor. He works with enthusiastic, impressive performers and the result is a diverting and lively show.
It all begins with Benator, whose credits at TheaterWorks include Lobby Hero and Santaland Diaries. His character is oddly idiosyncratic and the actor is a perfect fit for the part. Initially, he seems to be speaking to himselfexcept that he is out there by his lonesome addressing an audience. He mimics Jake, who gets paid a couple of million dollars for action films in which he shouts out lines like "Get in the truck!" Of course, Jake now has a more minor role as Charles, mentioned only, is the Kafka lead. Benator, however, is somehow endearing and sympathetic to the theatergoers almost despite himself. Montelongo (at TheaterWorks several years back in Take Me Out) is convincing. Egotistical and eager to disparage Harry, Jake goes toe-to-toe. Paterson manufactures an occasional shrill, cackling laugh as the anxiety-ridden Roxanne. This offends one's ears but it happens to fit with her character.
Beyond the comic edge, The Understudy, through the dialogue Rebeck composes for Harry, has a thoughtful and even metaphysical thematic aspect. Harry is searching for: a role, a place, a work place, and, really, meaning in life. What, after all, is existence all about?
Luke Hegel-Cantarella, set designer for the production, is pivotal, as his creations must slide in and out of scenes at the most inopportune of moments. With them, the piece shows greater texture and dimension.
The play includes segments from The Trial and The Castle, yet the Kafka in rehearsal is not a real work unto itself. This Understudy is a relatively short but rich evening or afternoon of theater. Rebeck's dialogue is constant and the actor repartee keen.
The Understudy continues at TheaterWorks in Hartford through September 18th. For ticket information, call (860) 527-7838 or visit www.theaterworkshartford.org.

Go for the Gold Reds Half-Case
Your Go for the Gold Reds Half-Case includes two bottles each of
Bertoli Chianti D.O.C.G.
Think of that perfectly broken-in pair of boots. They're tough enough for bad weather, but refined enough to add something to your favorite suit. Bertoli Primitivo di Puglia IGT is those boots. This powerful red, from Italy's heel, is soft and deep with flavorful vanilla, raspberry and spice notes. Pack it for a trip, or pair it with spicy sausages, venison, duck, or tomato dishes like chili and lasagna.
Award Winner: 90-point Gold Medal, San Francisco International Wine Competition 2016
Monarch Glen Merlot
Monarch Glen Merlot is a tasty red wine that flaunts aromas of tangy cherry and sweet berries, leading into a clean, dry finish. Looking for a food to pair with this wonderful wine? Try herb-roasted chicken, or grilled rack of lamb with fresh mint.
Multiple Award Winner: 90-point Gold Medal, Critics Challenge International Wine Competition 2016; 88-point Silver Medal, Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition 2016; 87-point Silver Medal, Toast of the Coast Wine Competition 2016; Silver Medal San Francisco Chronicle Wine Competition 2016; Silver Medal, West Coast Wine Competition 2016
Pico Malbec
Pico Malbec's flavor profile is a salute to this style of wine's homeland, Cahors in France. It drinks profoundly, with notes of blackberry and herbs. This red's smoky overlay hits it off well with your favorite grilled meat. It's full bodied, has a personality, and has a finish that should please the wine drinker in all of us.

Appendix: Abstract
This report summarizes the measurements of the total CO2 concentration and pCO2 in discrete water samples made by the LDEO group during the expeditions for the WOCE sections P-16S, P-17S, P-17A, P-17E, P-19C and P-19S conducted from October 1992, through April 1993, in the South Pacific Ocean. The methods employed for the measurements of these two quantities as well as the computational schemes used for obtaining the alkalinity and the apparent oxygen utilization are described. These data are listed along with the standard hydrographic data provided by the WOCE Hydrographic Project Office.
During this investigation, hydrographic and chemical measurements were repeated at five locations about a month to a year apart. An analysis of these repeat station data for total CO2 and pCO2 indicates that the expedition-to-expedition precision is about twice as large as the precision estimated for a single station. The expedition-to-expedition precision for oxygen measurements is excellent and is comparable to the single station precision. While the single station precision for the nutrient data is excellent, the data suffer from systematic offsets from one expedition to another due likely to calibration problems.
The meridional sections drawn for the total CO2 concentration in the South Pacific show the presence of a CO2 maximum centered around a depth about 2600 meters, representing a southward return flow from the North Pacific. The flow patterns of this high CO2 water are affected by the sea floor topography, namely the East Pacific Rise and Tuamotu Archipelago. This return water from the north is undercut by northward flowing Southern Ocean waters which have lower CO2 concentrations. The surface water pCO2 data indicate that, in austral summer, the eastern half of the South Pacific is a source for atmospheric CO2, whereas the western half is a sink. Since the sea-air pCO2 difference in the eastern half has a similar magnitude as that in the western half but has an opposite sign, the source flux tends to cancel with the sink flux. Hence, the South Pacific as a whole appears to have a small net CO2 flux.

In the next plate Flora is deploring the absence of her Zephyr, who has left her an opportunity to execute a pas seul.
In subsequent periods it was imitated by female dancers and as a pas seul.
On several occasions I have observed them perform a kind of dance, a pas seul, for each rotifer would be alone by itself.
I should like to see that pas seul, but first will you do me the extreme honor to dance this with me?
Take care that your face does not express more anxiety for the success of your pas seul than joy at greeting your friend.
True; but I never heard of a man that performed a pas seul before the enemy.
The wall is not meant for me to hold up, and if no one will ask me to dance, I'll get out and do a pas seul!
Unless he were dancing a pas seul out of sheer lightness of heart, the nocturnal visitor must have tripped over something.
Regular ballets of action now take place, in lieu of the pas de deux, and pas seul, of one or two principal dancers.
The next performer was a Mysian, who danced, again in armor, what we should call a pas seul.
