BUILT will premiere during Black History Month on Sunday, February
23 at 6 p.m. on WHYY TV12. The one-hour documentary, produced
by the Hagley Museum and Library, is about the ambiguous legacy
of segregation, and ultimate desegregation in 1967, of Delawares
public school system.
Focusing on the 89 schools built by Pierre S. du Pont (1870-1954),
the program includes many contemporary images and compelling
interviews with teachers and students whose lives span 75 years
of African-American education in Delaware. The documentary also
looks at current efforts by black Delawareans to preserve, restore,
and reclaim their former schools as sites of African-American
culture and heritage.
A SEPARATE PLACE recalls the efforts of African-Americans to
obtain quality education during the period in the 1920s when
Delaware mandated racial segregation in its schools. Education
was a priority for the black community since it provided one
of the only vehicles for economic advancement during the Jim
Crow era. "The two most compelling aspects of the film
are the determination and persistence of African-Americans in
pursuing educational opportunities and the support and guidance
provided by dedicated African-American teachers," said
Dr. Jeanne Nutter, Executive Producer of A SEPARATE PLACE.
Appalled by Delawares segregated system for collecting
school taxes, du Pont spent more than $6 million to build African-American
schools. This included more than $1 million for Howard High
School, Delawares only black secondary school until the
The schools built by du Pont dramatically improved the conditions
under which black students were taught. These improvements,
as well as the limitations which preceded them, are detailed
in the programs interviews with former students and teachers
from "colored" schools.
The schools were not only educational facilities, but also served
as cultural centers for the African-American community. "This
is one of the better schools that Mr.
du Pont built because we [had an auditorium]," said James
Hardcastle in the program about his alma mater, Booker T. Washington
School. "Back in those days, there was no place in Dover
where black folks had an opportunity to congregate other than
the churches."
Once the schools were erected, they were turned over to black
educators who then controlled them under the segregated school
system. In addition to providing basic educational needs, teachers
taught students about the arts, politics, homemaking, woodworking
and also gave vocational instruction. "The teachers were
very kind to us. They taught how to do everything. They taught
us life," said Sam Peterson in the program.
Even though the teachers were exceptional and the school buildings
were state-of-the art, the education resources available to
students were inferior. From books to baseball bats, all supplies
came from white schools, once they had become too worn for white
students to use. A SEPARATE PLACE cites how books would often
arrive at African-American schools with rolls of scotch tape
so the torn pages could be repaired. This also meant much of
the information contained in the books was outdated. "When
they (white students) were reading about Lindberg, we were still
reading about the Wright Brothers. Thats how far behind
we were," said Gladys Clark in the program.
The program also explores how access to education after 8th
grade was severely limited by racial segregation and blacks
often could not attend secondary schools reserved for whites
in their own communities. Howard High School in Wilmington was
over 100 miles from communities in the Southern part of the
state, and most students did not have the funds to relocate.
"Some people couldnt afford it financially and many
people dropped out of school talented people," said
Eldridge J. Waters in the program.
"We dont know how many of them became disillusioned
and discouraged."
Racial segregation in Delawares education system finally
ended in 1967, but as in many other states, the results of integration
were disappointing for the black community. According to the
program, black students were disproportionately assigned to
special education tracks. Desegregation also affected African-American
educators and administrators who found themselves unwelcome
at integrated schools. Many lost their positions of authority
and faced relocation and reassignment.
Today, many African-Americans in Delaware are working to preserve,
restore and reclaim their former schools as sites of African-American
culture and heritage. In the program, former students of Christina
111C, which was destroyed by fire in 1990, discuss how they
have raised thousands of dollars from bake sales to restore
the school to its original state.
The program draws resources from the collections of the Hagley
Museum and Library, as well as P. S. du Ponts personal
photographs, architectural plans of schools, and letters from
African-American school children. It also uses materials from
the Delaware Historical Society, the Delaware State Archives,
Howard High School, the National Archives and filmed oral interviews.
Dr. Jeanne Nutter is the programs Executive Producer.
Alonzo Crawford is the Director and Cinematographer.
Principal funding for A SEPARATE PLACE was provided by the Longwood
Foundation. Hagley Museum and Library and the Delaware Humanities
Forum, a state agency of the National Endowment for the Humanities,
also supported the making of the program.
The Hagley Museum and Library is a nonprofit educational institution
dedicated to the preservation and understanding of Americas
economic and technological heritage. For more information, visit

10 Comments on "Paul Rudd Lip Synchs"
You did NOT mention the bum feature, Seven!! I would have watched it looooooong before now! Yay for P Rudd and his twitchy hips! And bum
?? I love, love, love Paul Rudd.
This was so worth watching. Paul killed it!
You can pretty much skip over Jimmy – the Tonight Show morphed him into looking like a sophomore math teacher. Paul OWNS his pieces, even Jimmy admits it. 🙂 (Hint: Queen is the second song and the hips, they gyrate in a right fashionable manner that is pleasing to the eye.)
I just want you to know that I am only watching this because of your comment, Seven. Use for good only, not evil
Someone at work always says lip singing instead of syncing, cracks me up every time.
I was watching Romeo + Juliet the other day and had forgotten he was in that movie. He looks exactly the same. Fountain of youth right there.
If I were the judge at the roller rink, Paul Rudd would win. And not just because I'd try to use it as leverage to sleep with him.
Love, love, love Paul Rudd, plus the choice of music is excellent!
You had me at Paul Rudd lips… and then I was sold on the hip gyrations.
I'll be in my bunk.

Another DSM-4 Corporate Psychopath
WASHINGTON -- Sodium dichromate is an orange-yellowish substance containing hexavalent chromium, an anti-corrosion chemical. To Lt. Col. James Gentry of the Indiana National Guard, who was stationed at the Qarmat Ali water treatment center in Iraq just after the 2003 U.S. invasion, it was just different-colored sand. In their first few months at the base, soldiers were told by KBR contractors running the facility the substance was no worse than a mild irritant.
Gentry was one of approximately 830 service members, including active-duty soldiers and members of the National Guard and reserve units from Indiana, South Carolina, West Virginia and Oregon, assigned to secure the water treatment plant, according to the Department of Veterans Affairs. Sodium dichromate is not a mild irritant. It is an extreme carcinogen. In November 2009, at age 52, Gentry died of cancer. The VA affirmed two months later that his death was service-related.
In November, a jury found KBR, the military's largest contractor, guilty of negligence in the poisoning of a dozen soldiers, and ordered the company to pay $85 million in damages. Jurors found KBR knew both of the presence and toxicity of the chemical. Other lawsuits against KBR are pending.
KBR, however, says taxpayers should be on the hook for the verdict, as well as more than $15 million the company has spent in its failed legal defense, according to court documents and attorneys involved with the case. ................(more)

3. Because they are
a subsidiary of Haliburton... remember Dick Cheney???? and all those "no bid" contracts awarded to them back over a decade ago when Cheney was driving the W around like a ....? and started those wars that were never supposed to end? Wanna guess who's benefiting by all of that in bank accts. offshore? That's how they got to poison our troops, imprison innocent people who went to Iraq to work but were put in prison camps and their passports taken away for years at a time and occasionally got to work but their pay was stolen for "rent" in the prison, I mean, workers' camps? That's why, it was part of the pillaging of America ala ChenyBu$h.

5. Indeed. Most of the
vets I know, from other war times, were aghast about the KBR contracts to do everything from laundry to food service and all of that when it used to be servicefolk who did all that so that they were performing all tasks in the theater. First, I hope we find a way to never go to war again... but if we do, no KBRs or contractors of that sort and on those conditions.
On edit: I think that KBR should pay all fines, restitution and refund the US for every cent they made after all that is deducted from their "take". Slimeheads.

But I might even go a step farther.. Bring up the head honchos at KBR on charges of first degree murder, and when they are found guilty hang them by the neck until dead.. Of course that won't happen either. But if it did it just MIGHT be a case where the death penalty actually works.

Honestly, some of the suits in KBR should be facing criminal charges at this rate. Dissolve KBR's corporate status and let's see how many of the lower echelons will cut a deal to squeal on the higher-ups.

text: The success of the spectral element method with the shallow water equations has prompted us to develop a primitive equation version of the model (SEAM, for Spectral Element Atmospheric Model). We have recently completed this work, making extensive use of the Held-Suarez test cases [Held and Suarez, Bull. Amer. Met. Soc. 1994] to validate SEAM and compare SEAM with other GCM dynamical cores. The results are practically identical to Held-Suarez results from their spherical harmonic spectral model. SEAM also performs well. Results at T42/L20 resolution on 64 nodes of the Cray T3D show that SEAM runs about 9 times faster then the dynamical core from NCAR's CCM3. (At present, SEAM uses an explicit time step 8 times smaller than CCM3, so most of this gain is lost.)

EVERYTHING you think you know about the song; "We Shall Overcome"…is WRONG. This is the Shocking, Untold Story of the iconic freedom-song; We Shall Overcome and its TRUE author; Louise Shropshire – a sharecropper's daughter and self-proclaimed "nobody", who through love and dedication to God, Gospel-music and the African-American Church; overcomes racism and poverty to find herself in the inner-circle of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Rev. Fred Shuttlesworth, Rev. Thomas A. Dorsey and the Civil Rights Movement. In the process, Shropshire composes and copyrights a popular Gospel-hymn, which is hijacked and secularized by Pete Seeger and four other folk-singers – then peddled for untold millions all over the globe by Pete Seeger, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, Bruce Springsteen and countless others. Featuring more than 160 extraordinary photographs -this extraordinary book not only describes the disturbing details surrounding the misappropriation of Louise Shropshire's sacred hymn, but also explores the historical attitudes of Black-exploitation, subjugation and racism in America – attitudes that enabled such an unthinkable act to occur in the first place and remain unchallenged for over half a century. Although it would earn untold millions and the US Library of Congress would call We Shall Overcome; "The Most Powerful Song of the 20th Century", Louise Shropshire would die penniless and unrecognized.

Let us know when your receive great advice so we can thank our lawyers and point others with similar questions in the right direction.Got it!
My sister-in-law (whom I haven't had contact with for 15 yrs!) had me served with a restraining order in Aug. I went to court and she never showed up. The judge dismissed the case. The next day, she went and filed again. Now I'm due in court in Sept. I know she won't show up because she's doing this to her own sister and brother, too. She files, has us served, we show up and she doesn't. She's just playing games. So what happens if I don't show up? This has been so stressful and I'm tired of it - We all are!both the petition and respondent did not show up
First let me state that I am not licensed in MO and you should consult with a local attorney.
That said, if you don't show up and your sister-inn-law does, then you will be defaulted. If neither of you show up, then the case will be dismissed again. However, filing frivolous lawsuits is unlawful in most districts and your sister-in-law could be fined by the court. I would recommend that you show up and bring it up to the judges attention. I would also recommend that you speak with a lawyer about this if it happens again.Ask a similar question

President Bush Issues Executive Order Facilitating Hunting Opportunities and Wildlife Conservation
Friday, August 17, 2007
On behalf of NRA members, gun owners and hunters, Id like to thank President Bush for his steadfast support of national hunter heritage protection policies, said Chris W. Cox, National Rifle Associations (NRA) chief lobbyist. As a life-long hunter, the President appreciates the essential life lessons learned in the field and countless benefits realized by Americas hunting families. In addition, President Bush understands that hunters are the nations true conservationists.
This groundbreaking executive order compliments NRAs long-standing efforts to protect and enhance hunting opportunities. These efforts include state laws eliminating barriers to youth participation, no-net-loss of public hunting lands initiatives, voluntary programs encouraging landowners to provide public hunting access to their lands and robust federal funding of critical wildlife habitat conservation programs.
The executive order details a number of specific strategic policies. Some provisions include:
· Evaluate trends in hunting participation and where appropriate address declining trends and implement actions that expand and enhance hunting opportunities for the public;
· Consider economic and recreational values of hunting in agency action;
· Manage wildlife and wildlife habitats, including wildlife management planning, to expand and enhance hunting opportunities.
This order will also encourage collaboration between Federal agencies and State governments to establish short and long term planning and managing goals for conserving public lands and game species and promote expanded hunting opportunities.
Anti-hunting groups have long fought to dismantle public hunting land in an effort to eradicate Americas sporting heritage," added Cox. "This order guarantees that the hunters of tomorrow will enjoy the traditions and learn the skills their parents and grandparents mastered in the woods.
America provides hunters with the richest opportunities anywhere in the world and is home to vast wildlife habitats coast-to-coast, concluded Cox. The Presidents order will safeguard our treasured hunting heritage for generations to come and promote programs to protect diverse lands critical for wildlife species.
Here's an idea... instead of drafting useless orders that says "hunting is good" how about doing something to put a long term protection ON our right to hunt?
- Push through a gun control bill which doesn't sunset and protects our right to own firearms. Its great that he didn't renew the AWB but he did nothing to stop the next wave from putting a new one in place
- Fund our agencies! We have a lot of game land already and it isn't going anywhere without gov't approval. We need more people to patrol it and keep the meth heads out!
- There is a reason that areas are losing the number of hunters... ITS BECAUSE OF THE GREAT MIGRATIONS! Stop the damn crime in the cities, put more boots on the ground in the major Metros and the amount of hunting land will stop decreasing!No I'm not dead

Economic policy covers a multitude of topics—interest rates, employment, inflation, and GDP growth to name a few. It's about the environment, agriculture, and energy. But, mostly, it's about budgets: deciding how much money goes where and then how to raise it.
As the US ponders its economic future, PT spoke with three different sources about their take on
what lies ahead: Wilbur Ross, one of the country's experts on bankruptcies and restructuring; Georges Sudarkis, an investment officer with ADIA, the world's largest state fund; and Vic Miller, a leading authority on federal budgets. To read what they had to say, check out the three new articles in this May 2008 issue of Policy Today.
Highly regarded within the field or bankruptcies and restructuring, Wilbur Ross is Chairman and CEO of W R Ross and Co. of New York. His successes include automotive, coal, and steel manufacturers. Now, Ross is focusing on the financial services sector.
At a recent conference, Ross provided a very sobering view of the financial black hole that American banks and consumers have dug for themselves.
Federal budgets face splits between Congress and the White House, differences between House and Senate, and small Democratic majorities in both houses make coalition-building necessary, yet difficult as coalitions keep shifting. Add to that difficulties of producing compromises on virtually any point even when ultimate goals are agreed. Says Vic Miller, Senior Fellow at Federal Funds Information for States, "it's very difficult to reach consensus."

FORT HOOD — Soldiers and civilians gathered at Fort Hood Stadium on Friday for the post's annual Independence Day celebration.
Central Texas families began arriving at the site about 5 p.m. for the celebration, which featured food, drinks, games and entertainment.
"It's just a great place to bring your family and celebrate," said Jackie Jones, who traveled from Morgan's Point with her two grandchildren to participate in Friday's festivities.
Musical guests at this year's Fourth of July event included Pat Waters and the Chainlink Band, as well as Max Stalling.
Short remarks from the Fort Hood commander, Lt. Gen Mark Milley, were followed by performances by two 1st Cavalry Division bands: Warrior's Call and the Crossfire Brass Band.
The night was capped off by a 30-minute fireworks show.
While music and fireworks were likely common elements of similar celebrations in towns and cities across the United States, Jones said being able to celebrate the holiday at Fort Hood was a reminder of just what Independence Day was all about.
"It seems like it means more when you are standing next to people that served our country," Jones said.
Wanda Wizenhunt, who also brought her young grandson and his friends to the event, agreed. Wizenhunt's husband is retired from the military, and her son was recently deployed to Afghanistan.
"The military is like a big family," she said. "We all understand what (Independence Day) is about."

Jakarta (last day)
We managed to go shopping today as our flight time to KL is 6:05 pm. Planned to go to Mangga 2 but the taxi driver recommended going to Cempaka Mas as he said the complex is more bigger under one roof. We arrived there at 9:45 am.
The lights were not all switched on, shops are about to start operating and many shops still closed (awalnya datang!)
But as we walk from one shop to one shop, the complex became brighter (all the lights was ON) and all the shops were opened.
Yes it's true, all things are here. And most surprising to us, the same things (mostly) at Pasar Baru Trade Centre Bandung could be found here with much much much much cheaper. Waduhh...menyesal? To cover the guiltiness, I also spent some (as usual). Don't miss the chance OK. And lesson for the day is, next time if you want to buy things like telekung, batik, tudung, kemeja, hbag, bought at Jakarta. Branded items get at Bandung.
We couldn't spent much time here as we have to go back to hotel room to pack & check out before heading to airport.
After having lunch, we departed to airport at 3:30 pm. By right it would only take 20 minutes from the hotel to airpot, but because jalan macet (jam), there's a construction at hiway (imagine 3 lanes became 1 lane), we almost missed the flight. That was the "panic period" for all of us, including taxi driver. The boarding time is 5:30 pm, but we still in the hectic traffic jam at 5:40 pm. Ammar & Aqil were praying
. We reached airport at 5:50 sharp, took our luggages put on the trolley and all of us were running running running like Home Alone movie..really. All the mixover feelings were there - panic, irritate, shock. The rest was history.....
And since we travelled with the baby, we were given priority to board first. My "kecut perut" only cured when only I laid myself on the seat, in the flight. The experience that won't be forgotten. "Jalann macett"
And not so many pictures today as we are shocked by all those things I listed above
Not to forget, our special dedication to hubby a.k.a abah, thanks for this treats, BDG & JKT. Thanks from mummy, Ammar, Aqil, Hannah and mek(maid) Ana. Where next?

Prodigy Joins Lupe, 'President Obama Is a Terrorist'
Chicago rapper Lupe Fiasco has at least one ally in his anti-Barack Obama sentiments. Mobb Deep's Prodigy is in accord with Fiasco's opinion that President Obama is "the biggest terrorist."
"I would have to agree with him," Prodigy tells HipHopDX. "Most of these politicians and these government officials … most of them are the real terrorists."
The Queensbridge MC famously rapped "Illuminati got my mind soul and my body, secret society trying to keep their eye on me," on LL Cool J's 'I Shot Ya (Remix),' which is just an inkling of his familiarity with various conspiracy theories. One being that government institutions are misleading by default.
"I was definitely checking [Obama] out and seeing what he was doing and what he was about," said the 'Keep It Thoro' rapper. "But I already knew ahead of time — I've been studying all that type of stuff since like 15, 16 years old, so… You can't pull the wool over my eyes. I already know what time it is."
Prodigy's schedule has been quite busy since his release from prison after serving three years for weapons charges. He has released a book, 'My Infamous Life,' dropped a free mixtape called 'The Ellsworth Bumpy Johnson' EP, made peace with Nas and recorded a song with G-Unit nemesis Rick Ross.
Hard at work on their forthcoming album, Mobb Deep is performing at the Rock the Bells Festival this summer.

Topic: Shopping (03/01/07)
TITLE: An ASDA Abomination
By Justin Ray
In the five months that we've all been eating together, no one has taken him up on the offer for certain adventure. I don't know if I went out of curiosity or sympathy, but I know it was quit an experience. Well, that's not entirely true. I went partially because of an inconvenient truth. Unlike Al Gore's version of inconvenient truth, this was actually a true-truth.
On Wednesdays we eat at 5:15. I get off work between four and five, depending on factors beyond my control. This leaves me with fifteen minutes to an hour and fifteen minutes to cook, if I get the fine privilege of cooking on a Wednesday. I live in a really small, really cramped flat with dry-rotted stairs and five room mates: Kevin, Raphael, Jeremiah, Alan, and Black Mold. As you can imagine, there is zero fridge-space, so I have to do my shopping in the same afternoon, unless I make special provisions to clear enough room for a meal for ten people in the refrigerator.
It was a Tuesday night, and Paul made his weekly ASDA announcement and I thought, "Hey, I'm cooking tomorrow. Morrison's is closed already, and I don't have time to shop tomorrow after work. I should go with him and see why he likes the Bolden ASDA so much." I told him I would go, and our temporary dinner guest, Colin, decided to join us.
So we drove out to East Bolden and arrived at ASDA. In twenty years from now, if I were to take one of those word association tests with a shrink, and he said, "England." I would respond, "Atrocious customer service." Almost every tertiary store in England opens at nine or ten and closes at five or six during the week, is totally and ridiculously packed-out on Saturday, and is close on Sunday. When I stepped out of the car in the ASDA parking lot, I was met with a giant lit sign boasting "24 hour" on the front of ASDA, welcoming me with open arms. I almost couldn't contain my excitement as I walked rapidly through the automatic doors. In America, almost everything is open twenty-four hours. You can get groceries any time, any where. In England, I have a hard time finding a convenience store open for twenty-four hours.
My joy ended promptly after the automatic sliding door closed mockingly behind me. I walked around that store for about forty-five minutes with Colin and didn't find anything I would dare serve for dinner. I got desperate for a couple of minutes and picked up the most low-quality "it's not delivery, it's not DiGiorno, it's cheap" pizzas I've ever seen. I put them back, because I was too ashamed to serve such rubbish for a meal. Seriously though, I walked around the entire store, and didn't see a single thing that interested me other than a children's riot police costume.
With Wednesday rearing it's ugly head, I became slightly worried about dinner. By noon, my ability to work was fully incapacitated by the fear of a dinner disaster. Then, by the grace of God, I remembered a saviour; Quality Pizza. This little take-out place on the corner owned by a family of Romanians. I placed an order for four ten inch pizzas and the stress was over. I picked those puppies up at 5:10, and had the boxes on the table at 5:15.
Just as a side note: Colin did manage to score some "Littlest Pets" toys for his daughter. Good on him, wish I had some luck in ASDA.

Local Musician Matt Manisero Looks to Make the Leap in 2014
While most New Year's resolutions involve things like diet and exercise, one Monmouth County man has far greater ambitions. Manalapan's Matt Manisero, a talented musician and performer, is hoping that 2014 will be his breakout year.
Hot off the recent release of his new single and music video for the song "Can You Feel It Now," Manisero will perform at Freehold's Encore Event Center on February 21 as the opening act for American Idol winner Kris Allen.
The show, which is sure to sell out, will be Manisero's first outing as a solo performer. He is no stranger to stage lights, however, having plenty of experience as the leader of the recently defunct band The Perfect Gentleman.
"I couldn't be more excited," Manisero said. "Getting the chance to perform in front of a huge crowd like this is a dream."
The February concert is just the first step in what promises to be a huge year for the performer. His album Chasing the Feeling is due out this spring and a series of live dates supporting the release will follow.
See the video for "Can You Feel It Now" below and be sure to keep up with Matt on Twitter, Facebook and his official website: mattmanisero.com.

Jen Leaves Violet & Ben To Fend For Themselves
Jen Leaves Violet & Ben To Fend For Themselves
Chloe, Prada, Chanel Oh My! Jennifer Garner is sure making up for that unfashionable backback - next up shoes! The actress seems to be showing off her latest purchase as she made her way through security at LAX yesterday. She's headed to Japan for a junket before she jets back to the states to get working on rehearsals for Cyrano de Bergerac in NYC. Jen's trip will mark the first time that she spends away from her adorable Violet, leaving Ben on full-time Daddy duty. The farmer's market won't be the same without Jen, but based on how adorable Ben is with Violet, we think they'll do just fine.
Speaking of Ben, he's the newest big star to add his name to He's Just Not That Into You. You guys aren't worried about too much star power in the film, so the more, the merrier.

"One family. One room. Four screens. Four realities, basically. While it may look like some domestic version of "The Matrix" — families sharing a common space, but plugged into entirely separate planes of existence through technology — a scene like this has become an increasingly familiar evening ritual. As a result, the American living room in 2011 can often seem less like an oasis for shared activity, even if that just means watching television together, than an entangled intersection of data traffic — everyone huddled in a cyber-cocoon."

Fast, exhilarating descents are cycling's way of saying thank you for the hard hills. Beginners often find them scary, but they don't have to be, explains Andy Cook, if you follow a few simple rules.
Consciously relax your death grip on the bar and release the tension from your arms and shoulders. Apart from being unnecessarily tiring, a stiff body will transmit any bumps in the road to your bike, making it more difficult to control.
A relaxed upper body will help you avoid any sudden movements, and keep your braking and steering smooth. Keep your pedals level so you can unweight yourself from the saddle and use your legs as suspension to smooth over any bumps in the road.
Keep pedalling
Most long descents come after a hard climb, so suddenly relaxing your legs and then stopping pedalling for protracted periods of time – especially in a racing tuck – will make them stiffen up. To avoid this, make sure you do some pedalling on the way down, even if it isn't to make you go significantly faster. That way when you get to the next rise in the road your legs won't let you down.
Keep your distance
Remember that neither you nor the rider directly in front has brake lights, so you may get no warning if they have to suddenly brake or swerve. For this reason, make sure you look well ahead down the road – not just at the wheel of the bike in front – and always leave enough room between you and the rider in front for your reaction time.
Remember your highway code: 'Only a fool breaks the two-second rule.' Why not apply the same space management technique to the gap between you and the speeding riding in front, ensuring you can count two full seconds from when he or she passes a point to when you pass it too? If they really are too slow, then wait for a safe place to pass and get around them quickly and cleanly, leaving as much space as possible.
All-seeing eye
Anticipate possible dangers, cornering speed and sharpness, changes in road surface, lines, braking points, other riders behind or in front and cars in side roads. Focus ahead on the piece of tarmac (US: pavement) that you are aiming to roll over – your line – and leave your peripheral vision to do what it's fastest at: picking up movement in black and white and quickly processing it to the brain.
Covering your brakes at all times, even if it is simply with the forefinger of each hand from the drops, will help you react more quickly when you need to.
Go aero!
The lower you manage to crouch, and the more you can tuck in your knees and elbows, then the less your frontal area and wind resistance – and the faster gravity will be able to propel you. If you're flexible enough you'll be able to keep your head up and look where you're going too – which is important.
To get extra pace, ride with your hands on the lower handlebar drops and dip your torso down towards the top tube. Choose an appropriately big gear so you don't spin out if you suddenly want to put the power down. Keeping the chain on the big ring on the front will keep a decent amount of tension in your chain too and avoid the likelihood of it jumping off onto the bottom bracket if you hit a bump
Braking wind
Just as going aero will make you descend faster, if you want to wipe some speed off a descent without having to resort to protracted, rim-wearing braking, then sit upright and catch some wind. Switching your hands to the hoods or tops will help add drag too, as will sticking out your elbows and knees.
Using your body as a natural brake like this is a useful tactic for adding control while you're braking before a corner.

Strong conditions in the automotive and advertising markets have allowed
Net profit at the online car advertising company jumped 45 per cent to $27.6 million and earning before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation rose 39 per cent to $39.8 million during the December half, beating analysts' forecasts.
Chief executive Greg Roebuck said net profit in the current half would be similar to or slightly better than the December-half result, indicating a full-year net profit of about $55 million, up from $43.2 million in 2009-10.
"We haven't given profit guidance before," he told The Australian Financial Review yesterday.
"The percentage growth in our profit in the December half was substantial. But we had a soft December 2009 half and we didn't want analysts to think the growth rate we just announced would be repeated in this half.
"We didn't want analysts to make unrealistic forecasts, so we've been more specific about the outlook than we'd like to be."
Shares in Carsales.com, which is 49.1 per cent by Nine Entertainment Co, jumped 23¢ yesterday to $5.05. The company lifted its interim dividend from 6.6¢ a share to 9.4¢, fully franked.
Carsales.com's revenue grew 31 per cent to $72.2 million during the December half, including a 32 per cent jump in online ad revenue to $48.2 million and a 24 per cent increase in data and research revenue to $8.4 million.
Mr Roebuck attributed the revenue growth to the health of the online advertising market, the internet's rising share of car ads (which is now about 20 per cent) and "a robust local automotive marketplace".
Macquarie Research Equities analyst Alex Pollak said Carsales.com's private advertising business (as opposed to ads from dealers) was the "standout" in the December-half results.
"The revenue growth in this segment was driven by solid price rises – from $50 to $60 for standard ads and $80 to $90 for premium ads – as well as strong ad volume growth," he wrote in a note to clients. "There is headroom for further price hikes, which are a fraction of those in print."
For more than a year media executives have claimed that large car dealers such as AP Eagers and Automotive Holdings are planning to set up advertising websites.
"The rumour is still strong, but nothing has happened," Mr Roebuck said.
"I'd prefer if something happened, so I can compete against a real business rather than a rumour."

Please Note: This Production of Storyfest Journeys is post here for your interest. It is not part of the School of Sacred Storytelling since this is hardly a sacred tale. But it is a tale I love to tell...
An Evening of Storytelling with Gouveneur Morris, Founding Father of the United States, Virtual Son of George Washington, and Native of New York City.
Few men know George Washington as well as Gouveneur Morris. During this evening with Mr. Morris, the passion of Washington for Theatre will be the theme. For "His Excellency" public life was a great stage on which the key issues of the day were enacted with a shrewd theatrical touch. Washington was a master of political and military theatre, and the stories about his dramatic talents reveal new insights into the personality and legacy of George Washington.
As for Gouveneur Morris himself, he was described as a bon vivant, a master merchant and financier, a rake, a shred political theorist, a vehement opponent of slavery, a defender of religious liberty, the elegant author of the Preamble to the Constitution, tireless lobbyist for the Contintental Army, a devoted diarist, an unabashed aristocrat, and a vivid chronicler of the French Revolution from his viewpoint as Ambassador to France. As a native of New York City myself (I was born in Manhattan, he was born in the Bronx), I am very please to take on the character of Gouveneur Morris and tell the tale of the man we are both devoted to, "His Excellency George Washington."

JERUSALEM (Nov. 20)
El Al and the Soviet airline Aeroflot will begin direct flights between Tel Aviv and Moscow in January, according to an El Al delegation that returned from the Soviet capital Sunday.
The exact date the joint service will commence and other operational details have yet to be worked out by the managements of the two national airlines. Each will establish facilities in the other's country to handle commercial and technical matters.
El Al has mapped its route for the three-hour-and-40-minute flight to Moscow. It crosses Cyprus, Turkey and the Black Sea.
The flights are expected to bring thousands of Soviet Jews to Israel each year, both those immigrating and those coming as tourists.
El Al announced, meanwhile, that it is resuming direct flights to Bulgaria at the end of December, after more than 25 years.
Weekly service will be provided by El Al's charter flight subsidiary, Sun d'Or, and Balkan Air, Bulgaria's national airline. The frequency will be increased during the summer tourist season.

CBJ takes race to April
The Columbus Blue Jackets are in playoff position as March draws to a close.
Most seasons since the team began play in the 2000-2001 season, that has not been the case.
But this year, the Jackets have survived a variety of injuries, insults and indifference to be in a position to move into the post-season for just the second time in the organization's history.
The off season brought promise with the summer-time acquisition of the hottest free-agent in the market; Nathan Horton.
Nevermind that Horton needed shoulder surgery and wouldn't join the team until after Christmas. The Blue Jackets had the man everyone else wanted.
Nevermind the fact the team got off to another disappointing start. Starting 2-5 was not in anyone's plan after the fabulous finish of 2013.
Nevermind the NHL's best goaltender last season, Vezina Trophy winner Sergei Bobrovsky got hurt in early December just as the team was beginning to put things together.
Nevermind this team is one of the few in the recent history of the NHL that does not have a captain.
Nevermind that the superstar forward acquired at last season's trade deadline, Marion Gaborik, was injured twice and ultimately traded at this year's trade deadline for a young third or fourth line forward who has only played in two games since his March 6th arrival and has yet to record a point as a Blue Jacket.
Nevermind the coach of the most profitable non-professional sports team in town dissed the only Big Four sports franchise in town(The Blue Jackets) by admitting to an Atlanta newspaper that he sometimes sells Columbus as a "large city with no professional sports."
Nevermind that the Columbus Dispatch which is owned by the company that also owns a slice of the Blue Jackets ran a front page article on the day of one of the most important home games of the year crowing over the team's low attendence and bad tv ratings.
Nevermind that the much-hyped free agent signed in the off-season is now injured and will miss the first game of April and possibly "beyond" according to his head coach.
Nevermind that some fans don't view that player's loss as a big deal since he hasn't scored a goal that counts since January 23rd.
Nevermind that the Jackets don't have a player among the top-45 point scorers in the NHL. Nor do they have a player in the top 90 when it comes to plus/minus ratings.
In the standings where it counts, the Blue Jackets enter the final month of the regular season not just in the playoff discussion but in the playoffs--if they were to begin at this moment.
There is still work to do. In fact there is a lot of work to do before the team gains a post-season berth.
But what they have acheived to this point in the face of opponents, critics and bad breaks proves this team does things as a team regardless of what others may think or feel.
As such this team should not be counted out until the end.

magnetic moment
Magnetic moment, also known as magnetic dipole moment, is a measure of the strength of a permanent magnet or a current-carrying coil expressed as the torque product when the magnet or coil is set with its axis perpendicular to a unit magnetic field; in other words, it is the maximum turning force exerted on a magnet or coil (or moving electric charge) in a magnetic field divided by the strength of the field. Charged particles and atomic nuclei also have magnetic moments.

Teacher Writes 'Loser' on Students' Assignments
To relate to his sixth grade students, Rex Roland writes 'loser' on assignments in a joking manner.
-Faye Brennan
Rex Roland, a sixth grade teacher at Enka Middle School in Candler, North Carolina, has been writing the word 'loser' on his students' assignments in an effort to relate to them through humor.
However, the put-down has angered Patty Clement, a parent who believes this teaching method is harming her daughter and has started a petition to have Roland suspended after a 12-year teaching career.
Read 6 Things Your Child's Teacher Won't Tell You (But Wishes You Knew)
Other parents disagree. "A lot of the students he has are academically gifted students," says another parent, Kathy Andrews. "So one of the ways that he would joke with them would be if they scored a 110, he always gave extra credit, so if they scored a 110, 120 on a paper, he would have a joke on it – 'loser'. That's what he engages in … he gets on their level and their words and tries to relate to them."
The school district is investigating the matter, and Roland has apologized, but Clement says she is determined to not stop fighting until the teacher is gone for good. (AOL News)

Oh God It's Your Glory - Poem by Pintu Mahakul
Oh God it is your nice creation, Oh God it is your glory
By your grace we are in motion, for universe you are signori.
On your command time flows, nature writes new story,
We come here, wind blows, and we carry body as lorry.
Soul comes here for a vision, as per his duty repertory,
Per his action there is a reason, he falls in every category.
Soul writes here his new fortune, just like coin in aleatory,
Sun does shine light receives moon, for humans earth keeps quarry.
You send messenger he is your son, to wash sin he builds purgatory,
Many sinners further by hearing run, hold hands in gesture placatory.
You do wash away sin, it is your power and it is your work of prefatory,
While soul connects, in mind's tower, you convey them true multi-story.
Change is a law you have made, in this world all are transitory,
Range is out of human shade, your all statements are promissory.
You truly come here by showing grace, all your laws are obligatory,
Person, who does obey, wins race, lives in pleasure in this territory.
By your mercy in ocean, swims, happily dances and sings dory,
Your knowledge removes clumsy skim, breaks complicated tory.
While your bless falls on earth, ever in Scotland shines corrie.
Show direction to follow your path, Oh beloved God it is your glory.

Salt Lake City police have arrested a 21-year-old man suspected of stabbing his 84-year-old grandmother Wednesday in her Avenues home.
Zachary Cole Weston was booked into Salt Lake County jail on suspicion of aggravated murder, a first-degree felony. The victim, Joyce Dexter, was found dead in her home at 310 J St. after police responded to a 2 p.m. call from someone who reported a domestic disturbance at her address.
A probable cause statement released Wednesday night by the Salt Lake County Corrections Department states neighbors could hear a woman screaming for help. Police arrived to find Dexter dead of a stab wound, according to the statement. Police allegedly found Weston holding a knife. He had blood on his clothes, arms and hand, police said.
During interviews with police after his arrest, Weston admitted to stabbing his grandmother numerous times and to slicing her abdomen open, according to the statement.
Police did not say who made the initial call.
Police blocked off the immediate vicinity of the woman's residence, an apartment within a red brick unit on the corner of J Street and Sixth Avenue.
In October 2010, Weston was charged in October 2010 with four misdemeanors after he allegedly assaulted his mother and two police officers during an incident in front of a 7-Eleven at 1305 E. 3900 South on Sept. 2, 2010. Court documents allege that police asked Weston to leave at the request of one of the store's clerks. He allegedly shoved his mother when she joined the conversation. He allegedly punched two officers in the face when they tried to take him into custody.
Weston resolved the case in March 2011 by entering a guilty plea in abeyance to class A misdemeanor assault, and prosecutors dropped the other three counts: assault, assault on a police officer and interference with police.
Weston was ordered by the court to obtain a mental health evaluation and complete any recommended treatment, including taking any medications prescribed.

We have determined that the crash is caused by more than one duplicate
variable specified in an interaction; parentheses control the parsing order
and can prevent the crash.
This will be fixed in the next executable update.
In the mean time Ulrich can avoid the crash by specifying a given factor
variable only once per interaction.
For example, Ulrich's example was
. margins i.us#i.highed#i.highrelig#(i.us#i.highrel), at(age=50)
The duplicate variables are 'i.us' and 'i.highrelig', and the parentheses add
nothing to this interaction specification. The above syntax is equivalent to
. margins i.us#i.highed#i.highrelig, at(age=50)
In a side note Ulrich said:
> (The idea was to interact the first three dummies with an interaction term.)
If Ulrich meant to separately interact each of the dummies with another term,
then the following syntax might be what Ulrich wants:
. margins (us highed)#highrelig, at(age=50)
This is a shorthand notation for
. margins us#highrelig highed#highrelig, at(age=50)
If Ulrich meant to compute the margins for each dummy in addition to their
interaction with another term, then Ulrich can type:
. margins (us highed)##highrelig, at(age=50)
This is a shorthand notation for
. margins i.us i.highed i.highrelig us#highrelig highed#highrelig, at(age=50)

Michigan athletic director Dave Brandon writes blog posts for the Michigan athletic website from time to time regarding pertinent issues surrounding the university's sports. And his most recent post was in defense of and showing support for Michigan football coach Brady Hoke.
It's a kind and understandable statement from the athletic director, especially with the heat Hoke has taken from Michigan fans who've grown impatient and frustrated with this 7-4 football team.
Brandon admits that this team isn't where the fans want it to be and he acknowledges that the coaches, players and staff feel the same way.
"If you saw how hard everyone inside Schembechler Hall works every day, you would understand why they are disappointed," Brandon wrote. "They pour their lives into developing these young people to prepare them to compete at the highest level and consistently win."
Brandon then compared Hoke to some pretty successful coaches.
He pointed out that Nick Saban was fourth in the SEC West during his fourth year at Alabama (though he fails to mention that it was also a 10-win season for the Crimson Tide and Alabama had won a national title the season before). Brandon also brought up Jim Harbaugh, who had two losing seasons before putting Stanford on the map.
"I have seen firsthand what Brady and his coaching staff are doing to make this program better," Brandon wrote. "It takes time and sometimes patience by all of us before we can build the consistent winner that meets our expectations."
The sentiments themselves aren't surprising at all. However, the timing seems a bit odd.
It's just a few days before the Michigan-Ohio State rivalry game. Obviously, if the Wolverines were to lose badly to the Buckeyes on Saturday, the rumor mill would spill over following the game about Hoke's future at Michigan.
Brandon's blog has squashed all of those rumors before they could even possibly begin.
But on top of that, the timing seems even a bit more curious considering Michigan's top commit in the 2014 class -- defensive back Jabrill Peppers, the No. 2 recruit in the nation -- announced this week that he would be taking official visits following his season.
Peppers hasn't signed with Michigan yet so it can't officially acknowledge him, but some of the quotes seem a bit pointed especially when considering that Peppers told ESPN.com that he just wanted to take a look at other options because of the rumors he has heard about Hoke's unsure future.
"The only threat to our continued success in recruiting," Brandon wrote, "is the same old, tired tactic being used by some who wish to see us fail -- to try and scare young recruits into believing that our coach 'is on the hot seat' -- which simply isn't true."
If Peppers does choose to take his official visits, he will be in violation of Hoke's no-visit policy, which says that any commit who chooses to take a visit after giving his verbal to Michigan will no longer be considered a commit.
The Wolverines have lost players because of this, such as tight end Pharaoh Brown, who chose to take a visit and eventually commit to Oregon after giving Michigan his verbal commitment. But, for players like offensive lineman David Dawson, who committed to Michigan then had his recruitment reopened, it didn't work out quite the same way. Hoke allowed Dawson to recommit to the Wolverines, showing that it still is a bit of a case-by-case situation, which will likely prove to be true with Peppers as well.
An athletic director standing up for his head coach and publicly showing support is no surprise, and perhaps there shouldn't be any surprise in this day and age that it came in the form of a 1,000-word blog post.
However, the company he has now put Hoke in and the timing of it all seems a bit more curious.

Slow cooker shredded chicken has 2 ingredients and yields 5 lbs of cooked chicken that can be easily repurposed for multiple meals throughout the week!
Not owning any diamonds of my own, I'm here to say that slow cooker shredded chicken is a girl's best friend.
Yes it is!
Nothing makes me happier than to open my refrigerator when I'm desperate with a "what am I going to make for dinner" panic, to find a bowl of already prepped shredded chicken.
It's the perfect meal protein starting block! A whole WORLD of possibilities can come from simple slow cooker shredded chicken. Over the next few weeks, I'm going to showcase three recipes that are great for you back-to-school parents, busy working professionals, and devoted meal prep'ers. Sneak peek at what's coming up:
Three totally different flavor profiles, three dinners your family will love, and three meals that you'll find are really simple to whip up.
The key to making meal prep a healthy, not overwhelming, pleasant experience is to try and thread the same ingredients through multiple meals. Last week we talked about how Basic Cauliflower Rice is a great meal component to make in advance, and in bulk. As you'll see in two out of the three dinners above, cauliflower rice and shredded chicken work well together.
This week, let's turn our kitchen's attention to chicken! I can't stress how ridiculously simple this recipe is. While I've outlined some thorough instructions for both a slow cooker and a stovetop method below, here's the crockpot reader's digest version:
Sprinkle 5-6 lbs (12 breasts) of chicken with a little salt & pepper. Plop them all in your favorite slow cooker, cover with water or broth, put a lid on, and let it cook on medium for 6-8 hours. When it's done, pull the chicken from the broth and effortlessly shred with two forks.
That's it, folks! Pretty simple way to meet your week's protein needs.
I hope you find this recipe as useful as I do!

Dan + Shay Still Think Someone is Pranking Them [Listen]
A fast-rising single, ACM nomination and two top tours ... success found country duo Dan + Shay quickly and the two men still can't believe it's for real.
A fast-rising single, ACM nomination and two top tours ... success found country duo Dan + Shay quickly and the two men still can't believe it's for real.
Country newcomer Michael Ray recently stopped by the Taste of Country Nights studio to tell his story, talk about writing with John Rich and debut some new music. The Florida native and winner of the CW's 'The Next' says he grew up on Bobby Bare and Porter Wagoner, but at age 16 heard Gary Allan -- "and that was it for me."
You won't find a musical environment more casual than the one Jerrod Niemann put together to work on his new studio album, 'High Noon.' The 'Drink to That All Night' singer tells Taste of Country Nights how tailgating activities played an important role in the writing process.
Charles Kelley of Lady Antebellum is almost as passionate about golf as he is country music. The singer says if he had to pick between a hole in one or a No. 1 single ('Compass' is currently in the Top 5), he'd take the radio hit. But in a strange way, the two passions merged last summer.
Dierks Bentley's new 'Riser' album hits stores and digital retailers on Tuesday (Feb. 25). The singer calls it his most personal album to date, and says the current single 'I Hold On' is his favorite radio single ever. During an interview with Taste of Country Nights' Sam Alex, Bentley opens up about the music, his family, his trips to the White House and his wife Cassidy's Toyota Prius.
Heavy rain showers didn't stop country music fans who'd come from all over to see Willie Nelson on Thursday night. Thousands packed Hunter Mountain in New York for the inaugural Taste of Country Music Festival. Ponchos, umbrellas, cold beverages and great country music kept fans in good spirits while the LoCash Cowboys, Parmalee and Nelson took the stage.
Happy Mother's Day to all you ladies out there! Here's a special shout out to my sweet mom.
Have you ever been stuck wondering what to get the special lady in your life for Mother's Day?
You just never know what we're going to see outside our window here at Taste of Country Nights. Last Friday there was an early Cinco De Mayo celebration going on, and I just couldn't help myself -- I got out the bullhorn!
Like a lot of you, I sat home today crying at the TV as we said goodbye to George Jones. What a beautiful tribute it was seeing Alan Jackson's tearful version of 'He Stopped Loving Her Today.' I wish country music was still in those good old days.
Ever just wanted to drink out of the container in the check out line while the cashier looks at you like you are totally crazy
What a beautiful little Texas town, but such an enormous tragedy that happened. This weekend on my way back to Dallas from San Antonio, I stopped by the town of West, Texas to pay my respects -- and, I guess, to satisfy that curiosity bug I had about what everything looks like.
