Editorial: Cars off the road
Published: Tuesday, February 5, 2013 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, February 4, 2013 at 4:31 p.m.
Nearly 25 years ago, Gainesville's Regional Transit System first identified the need for park-and-ride lots. On Monday, the first lot finally opened.
It consists of 43 spaces in a designated park-n-ride area within the lot of the new Walmart Supercenter off Northwest 34th Street near U.S. 441. Commuters can park their vehicles there for free and catch an RTS bus to the University of Florida and Shands.
It might not seem like much, but these kind of efforts are exactly what the area needs to reduce traffic congestion.
Community discussions about transportation sometimes descend into a dynamic of roads versus buses. That's unproductive and misguided.
Everyone who drives should cheer when increased mass transit options lead to cars coming off the roads. There's a desperate need for road improvements in the area, but we won't be able to simply build our way out of the problem of crowded roads.
Park-and-ride lots are envisioned in plans for new developments including the Butler Plaza expansion, Celebration Pointe and Newberry Village. Putting park-and-ride lots at entry points into the city will provide options for commuters to leave behind their cars, rather than fight for limited parking spaces on the University of Florida campus or downtown.
College students have the incentive of bus rides paid through their fees, while more than 32,000 area employees are part of an employee bus-pass program. But more incentives are needed to convince workers to ditch their cars and ride the bus.
It might simply mean improvements to the frequency and reliability of RTS buses, or some version of a bus rapid transit system might be necessary. Either way, continuing to increase bus ridership is a key part of solving the area's long-term transportation problems.
So even if the new park-and-ride lot isn't an option, cheer when you see people parking there if you're shopping at the new Walmart. It means one less car on the road when you're driving home.

Bon Appétit Introduces Fair Trade Uniforms
Guest Blogger: Bonnie Azab Powel, Director of Communications for Bon Appétit Management Company, Palo Alto, California
Guest blogger Bonnie Azab Powel, Director of Communications for Bon Appétit Management Company, explains the mission behind the company and how they incorporate Fair Trade products into their business model.
At Bon Appétit Management Company, we believe that workers in other industries and other countries deserve the same rights and protections that our 11,000 chefs, line cooks, and front-of-the-house staff enjoy in our 400-plus cafés around America.
That's why we've gotten involved in farmworker advocacy, partnering with the Coalition of Immokalee Workers on a Code of Conduct for our Florida tomato growers in 2009 and coauthoring a 65-page report on the state of farmworker treatment in America, released in March 2011. We're also the proud sponsors of a special TEDx conference on farmworkers and labor issues, called TEDxFruitvale: Harvesting Change, which will be held this Friday, on October 14. (Watch the live webcast, attend a viewing party, or later, watch the archived videos here.)
That's also why we care about Fair Trade. All year around, various Bon Appétit cafés around the country — from Lesley University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, to St. Olaf College in Minnesota and TASTE at the Seattle Art Museum — offer Fair Trade items such as coffee, bananas, and chocolate. On Valentine's Day this year, we announced that Cordillera Fair Trade Certified™ baking chocolate would be available companywide.
Now, just in time for Fair Trade Month, we're excited to announce that we're extending our Fair Trade commitments beyond the plate. We're launching a pilot program to supply Fair Trade Certified shirts to student employees in two of our university cafés; if all goes well, in 2012, we'll offer them to front-of-the-house employees in other Bon Appétit cafés. Managers will be able to choose Fair Trade aprons and shirts in a variety of colors, and with a slogan that reads, "Organic, Fair Trade…This Uniform is Ethically Delicious!"
Because to us, who made your shirt is just as important as who grew your strawberry — and who picked it. We are all connected, and we have a responsibility to workers everywhere to show them that their labor is valued as much as the products we purchase.
Bonnie Azab Powell is director of communications for Bon Appétit Management Company, the organizer of TEDxFruitvale, and the founder of the food-politics blog Ethicurean.com. Bon Appétit Management Company (www.bamco.com) is an on-site restaurant company offering full food-service management to corporations, universities, and specialty venues. A pioneer in environmentally sound sourcing policies, Bon Appétit has developed programs addressing local purchasing, the overuse of antibiotics, sustainable seafood, cage-free eggs, the connection between food and climate change, and, most recently, farmworker welfare.

By: Michael J. Schoppmann, Esq.
As physicians react to the growing market pressures to grow and/or maintain their patient populations, many are embarking upon an entry into the world of social networks. While such environments may hold great reward for many businesses, they also hold many concerns and risks unique to physicians and their medical practices.
A "Social Network" is defined by dictionary.com as an online service, platform or site wherein "family, friends and their families, that together create an interconnected system through which alliances are formed, help is obtained, information is transmitted, and strings are pulled. In an organizational setting, it usually constitutes the group of one's peers, seniors, and subordinates who provide information on how to get things done, how the power structure operates, and who holds the strings"
The number of social networks continues to grow exponentially every day and a social network heavily favored one moment may quickly find itself an afterthought or viewed as outdated the next moment. Examples of social networks are illustrated in the chart below:1
Seemingly attractive, an increasing number of physicians interacting within social media are creating some notable, and dire, consequences. As exposed by the Journal of the American Medical Association, a large number of medical students have admitted to using the forums inappropriately to discuss individual patients. Other recent incidents have involved a physician's office staff posting entries on Facebook and/or Twitter complaining about "difficult" patients and in one case, a Boston pediatrician who blogged throughout his malpractice trial.
Before any physician contemplates their entry into this new, ever evolving environment, they should consider certain preemptive risk management factors before doing so, such as:
Absent positive responses to the above noted factors, physicians and medical practices would be better served to withhold their entry in the realm of social media until such time as they are prepared to provide a strong commitment to the demands of social networking. Absent such a commitment, a partial or half-hearted effort will only leave the practice exposed to not only potential liabilities but adverse internet "standing".
If the practice or physician decides to engage in social networking, a large degree of advance planning and the assigning of structural responsibilities must be considered, such as:
Regarding the actual data posted within a social network itself, physicians and practices must also be mindful of standards and/or codes of conduct they are bound to abide by – not only those required by the social network itself, but also those required exclusively of physicians. Issues such as patient confidentiality under state and federal law (HIPAA), conduct requirements under state licensing requirements (boundary violations), contractual terms under payor (both public and private) and the general obligations of law (i.e., prohibiting defamation, libel, etc.) all dictate that great care be taken, especially for physicians and medical practices, as to the actual content within a social network and vigilant scrutiny over the ever changing/updating data.
For even those practices which might decline to pursue efforts within social media, caution should be held over the activities of employees of the practice. Use of personal e-mail accounts while working should be strictly curtailed due to the growing number of unintentional and intentional violations of patient-privacy laws. Moreover, many disgruntled former employees use social networking sites to disparage the practice and/or solicit present employees to join pending workplace claims. Moreover, an increasing number of work-place claims (i.e., harassment, stalking, cyber-bullying, discrimination, hostile work environment, etc.) are originating from social media (Facebook, etc) interactions between employees. To risk management such threats, every medical practice should develop, adopt and issue a written set of detailed policies addressing these issues and prohibiting the crossover of their role (and responsibilities) as employees and social networking. Such policies should be reviewed directly with all practice staff, updated routinely and acknowledged in writing, by every member of the practice.
In conclusion, while not prohibited directly by and law or regulation, any environment which holds unknown risks and is ever changing at a breathless pace, should be disquieting to physicians and medical practices alike. Unlike other forms of business, the practice of medicine carries an extremely onerous degree of oversight and an increasingly powerful body of restrictions. As a result, the best risk management tool for medicine may well be to simply not enter the world of social media until society sets the permissible boundaries to do so.

T-Birds sign goalie to WHL contract
Updated: November 07, 2012 1:06 PM
Seattle Thunderbirds general manager Russ Farwell today announced the team has signed goalie Logan Flodell to a standard WHL contract and education agreement.
"Logan has already distinguished himself within his age group and we believe he will continue to develop to be a very solid goaltender for us in the future," Farwell said.
Flodell, from Regina, Saskatchewan, was the T-Birds' third-round selection, 47th overall, in the 2012 Bantam Draft.
Flodell was a member of Team Saskatchewan at the Western Canada U-16 Challenge Cup played Nov. 1-4 in Calgary. He recorded a 2-0-0 record in two games played, stopping 42 of 46 shots he faced.
He is playing for the Regina Pat Canadians Midget AAA team. He has a 4-1 record through in five games with a 1.80 goals against average and a .922 save percentage. Flodell has played 300 minutes and make 106 saves on 115 shots.
Flodell joins Keegan Kolesar and defenseman Ethan Bear as 2012 Bantam Draft picks who have signed with the T-Birds.
Road trip continues
The T-Birds have three games remaining on their seven-game road trip. The Regina Pats are up next at 5 p.m. Wednesday at the Brandt Centre. They take on the Prince Albert Raiders at 5 p.m. Friday at the Art Hauser Centre. The last game of the road trip is against the Saskatoon Blades at 5:05 p.m. Saturday at Credit Union Centre.
The T-Birds return home for back-to-back home games at 7:35 p.m. Nov. 16, against the Medicine Hat Tigers at ShoWare Center. They face the Spokane Chiefs at 7:05 p.m. Nov. 17.
T-Birds tickets are available online at the T-Birds website and at the ShoWare Center box office. The ShoWare Center Box Office is open Monday through Friday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., Saturday game days at 10 a.m. and Sunday game days at noon.

Characteristics of a Healthy Relationship
A healthy relationship is when two people develop a connection based on:
- Mutual respect
- Trust
- Honesty
- Support
- Fairness/equality
- Separate identities
- Good communication
- A sense of playfulness/fondness
A healthy relationship should bring more happiness than stress into your life. Every relationship will have stress at times, but you want to prevent prolonged mental stress on either member of the relationship. While in a healthy relationship you:
- Take care of yourself and have good self-esteem independent of your relationship.
- Maintain and respect each other's individuality.
- Maintain relationships with friends and family.
- Have activities apart from one another.
- Are able to express yourselves to one another without fear of consequences.
- Are able to feel secure and comfortable.
- Allow and encourage other relationships.
- Take interest in one another's activities.
- Do not worry about violence in the relationship.
- Trust each other and be honest with each other.
- Have the option of privacy.
- Have respect for sexual boundaries.
- Are honest about sexual activity if it is a sexual relationship.
- Accept influence. Relationships are give and take; allowing your partner to influence you is important; this can be especially difficult for some men.
- Resolve conflict fairly; Fighting is part of even healthy relationships; the difference is how the conflict is handled. Fighting fairly is an important skill that helps you have healthier relationships.
Characteristics of an Unhealthy Relationship At times all relationships will have some of the below characteristics. However, unhealthy relationships will exhibit these characteristics more frequently and cause you stress and pressure that is hard to avoid. This tension is unhealthy for both members and may lead to problems in other areas of your life. While in an unhealthy relationship you:
- Put one person before the other by neglecting yourself or your partner.
- Feel pressure to change who you are for the other person.
- Feel worried when you disagree with the other person.
- Feel pressure to quit activities you usually/used to enjoy.
- Pressure the other person into agreeing with you or changing to suit you better.
- Notice one of you has to justify your actions (e.g. where you go, who you see).
- Notice one partner feels obligated to have sex or has been forced.
- Have a lack of privacy, and may be forced to share everything with the other person.
- You or your partner refuse to use safer sex methods.
- Notice arguments are not settled fairly.
- Experience yelling or physical violence during an argument.
- Attempt to control or manipulate each other.
- Notice your partner attempts to control how you dress and criticizes your behaviors.
- Do not make time to spend with one another.
- Have no common friends, or have a lack of respect for each others' friends and family.
- Notice an unequal control of resources (food, money, home, car, etc.).
- Experience a lack of fairness and equality.

CANCER services in Colchester's hospital have been deemed safe in a new report, following a damning review last year which claimed they were not.
NHS England's latest report, which was published today, has revealed five of the six cancer pathways criticised in December are now safe.
The sixth pathway, for skin cancer, has not yet been revisited.
The trust's chief executive Dr Lucy Moore said the report was proof of the significant progress the Trust had made.
She said: "I want to thank NHS England for their report which I hope will reassure patients and the public that all of our cancers services are now safe.
"We developed a comprehensive action plan to improve cancer services following the CQC report and NHS England's first report and we now have independent evidence of the progress that has been made.
"However, we are not complacent and the report includes some extremely helpful recommendations for us to make further progress towards achieving our goal of having cancer services that are second to none."
Read more in tomorrow's Gazette.
Colchester's hospitals are still not safe enough, inspectors rule.

The 21st century has been witness to an epidemic of manrexia. Media-driven androgyny (metrosexual manrexia) is the Captain Bligh on the new Ship of Fools.
Your form of manrexia, however, is pharmaceutically driven. Through what is more technically known as opioid-induced androgen deficiency, testosterone levels get whacked around like an Arab dictator sitting on an oil field.
Luckily, you have a reasonable defense and don't need to resort to "a thyroid problem" (a dubious excuse for all ailments usually related to laziness). Like your old mate Lance, you have an excuse to juice. You're all legal. The distillation of maleness, percolated from the testicles of Amazonian pigmies (through registered organ donation only), is your new ristretto.
As long as you are monitored by your doctor, you should be all good. Your voice should not deepen and the Bay Watch bikini team should remain safe. If you have come back from the levels of an 80-year-old, I suspect everyone is a lot happier in your shack.
There are not too many side effects of testosterone medication that could affect your climbing per se, other than a few associated with mild overdose. Erections that pop up halfway through a route (as opposed to before you start rooting) run the risk of getting caught in a leg loop. Vomiting on your belayer can generate some bad feelings while rashes and itching will scatter your social circle quicker than a turd in the deep end of the pool.Keep in mind that long-term use of opiod medication has diminishing returns and is highly addictive. Get off them as soon as you can. Pain is not the root of all evil, pharmaceutical companies are.
Go outside and roar. Climb a rock. Spear something—eat it. Shag the missus. You are MAN.
Getting Teste
Sex hormones are like your basic supermodel—easily upset, and with a vast capacity to demonstrate it. Drugs, stress, illnesses, age, the time of the month, or that there are no soft wipes in the bathroom may all be catalysts of hormone mayhem.
Low testosterone can cause erectile dysfunction, moodiness, sleep disturbances and fatigue. The fact that your penis is no longer pitching a family-sized tent in the morning is a sign that your testosterone levels are falling.
Fanatical fat watchers beware—diets that look like a who's who of the fat-free product range result in lower testosterone levels, while diets with moderate fat intake, high protein and low carbs produce a consistent high level of testosterone.
Unlike a woman's menopause, when estrogen levels plummet over months to very low levels, men's "andropause" is a gradual decline of testosterone levels over the years—around 1 percent per year from the age of 40.
Some facts: Testosterone levels in the morning are 30 percent higher. You may have high testosterone levels if your ring finger is longer than your index finger. Higher levels tend to be associated with combative behavior, risky undertakings, receding hairline, heavy growth of facial and body hair, acne, a lean physique and high cheekbones with a low brow ridge.

I've been making black bean chili for about 10 years now. It's my go-to dish for the fall, especially when serving a crowd. But when I make it, I don't call it "vegetarian chili," even though it is. I think calling something vegetarian still freaks people out a little bit, as if it might have some scary mystery ingredient that vegetarians use to ward off meat-lovers and vampires, like TVP or tofu. Lots of dishes are technically vegetarian if you think about it; apple pie is meatless, but no one offers a slice of "vegetarian apple pie," do they?
So to me, chili is chili. Sometimes it's made with beef, sometimes chicken, sometimes just beans, and some recipes are loaded with vegetables like zucchini and carrots. Rachael Ray's Meaty, Meat-less Chili is made with black beans and portobello mushrooms, plus traditional chili ingredients like cumin and hot peppers. It's hearty, filling and comforting — perfect for a fall potluck or football party. No need to call it vegetarian chili, but you're vegetarian friends will love it, and so will your meat-loving pals.
Meaty, Meat-less Chili
Recipe courtesy Rachael Ray
Serves 4
3 medium ancho chiles
1 quart vegetable or chicken stock-in-a-box (choose vegetable stock to make this chili truly meatless)
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
8 portabella caps, wiped clean, gills scraped, chopped
4 large cloves garlic, thinly sliced
1 large onion, chopped
1 green or red chile, thinly sliced
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
A scant palmful smoked paprika
A scant palmful cumin
A scant palmful coriander
Pinch ground cinnamon
2 (15-ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (15-ounce) can fire-roasted diced or crushed tomatoes
1 ripe avocado
1 cup sour cream
Juice of 1 lime
A handful fresh cilantro or fresh parsley
Toasted pepitas or sunflower seeds for garnish, optional
Tortilla chips, 2 (1-ounce) bags or couple handfuls, optional
Stem and seed the ancho chiles and place in a pot with stock, bring the mixture to a boil then reduce the heat and keep warm.
Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat with 1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil, 4 turns of the pan. Add the mushrooms to the hot oil and brown 12 to 15 minutes, then add the garlic, onions, chile, salt and black pepper and soften 5 to 6 minutes more, season with a spice mixture of paprika, cumin, coriander, and cinnamon.
Puree the reconstituted chiles and stock in a food processor. Add the chile stock mixture, beans, and tomatoes to the chili, cook 15 minutes until thickened, then turn off the heat, cool, cover and chill for make-ahead meal.
To reheat: Cover the chili and place over medium to medium-high heat, stirring frequently until the chili bubbles, then uncover and simmer until ready to serve.
Combine the avocado, sour cream, lime juice, cilantro, and salt in food processor and process into a smooth avocado-sour cream sauce for stirring into the chili. Serve the chili in shallow bowls and garnish with the avocado sauce, pepitas, if using, and a few tortilla chips, if using.

This week's Meatless Monday Mover and Shaker is Mario Batali, host of Molto Mario and Ciao America, and a longtime lover of meat. Mario is such a fan of the meat-free campaign, which aims to improve health by eliminating meat just once per week, that he's adopted Meatless Monday in all 14 of his restaurants around the country. He's not ridding meat from his menu altogether; he'll still offer the dishes his restaurants are known for. But the meatless dishes on each menu will be marked with a logo: MM, for Meatless Monday, to make them easier to find.

The Mets will have to look elsewhere for a pitcher as the San Francisco Giants re-signed Bengie Molina to a one-year, $4.5 million deal, which is just a half million less than the Mets reportedly offered.
Catchers Rod Barajas of the Blue Jays and Yorvit Torrealba of the Rockies might be other options as they both are unsigned.
They also could choose to stay internal with Omir Santos, new acquisitions Chris Coste and Henry Blanco, or farm prospect Josh Thole duking it out for the starting and back-up roles.
None of these options is ideal since none really have proven to be offensive weapons, at least not yet. While Santos performed admirably last year, no one expects him to have the firepower of Molina. Thole needs more seasoning. Blanco hit .235 with six home runs and 16 RBI in 67 games last season, while Coste hit a combined .225 with two home runs and 18 RBI in 88 games with the Phillies and Astros.
Do you think the Mets should go for Barajas or Torrealba or stick with what they have?

Penn Relays Results | Penn's Results
Day One Recap / Day Two Recap
PHILADELPHIA- Highlighted by a third-place finish in the 4x800-meter relay, the University of Pennsylvania men's track and field team wrapped up the 2013 regular season at the 119th Penn Relays on Saturday.
There were 48,871 in attendance at historic Franklin Field on Saturday for a three-day total of 111,284 - eclipsing 110,000 fans for the sixth consecutive year. It is also the 10th straight year and the 13th time in the last 14 years with more than 100,000 spectators at the world's oldest and largest relay carnival.
Matt Chylak, Thomas Tallerico, Kirk Webb and Mato Bekelja made up Penn's third-place 4x800 relay team. Against a field of 33 schools, the Quakers were less than a second from claiming the Penn Relays title. The foursome stopped the clock at 7:30.12 which was only topped by Fordham (7:29.83) and East Carolina's winning time of 7:29.52.
In the preliminaires on Friday, Mason Smith, Kyle Webster, Seck Barry and Chad Payne edged Albany in the 4x200-meter relay to win their heat at 1:26.91. That qualified them for Saturday's IC4A final where the same foursome shaved a half second off their time. The Red and Blue stripes finished sixth overall at 1:26.42.
Highlighting the Quakers in the field events on Day Three was Karl Ingram in the javelin. He reached the finals and finished fifth among 25 competitors. His second toss of the day was his best and measured 61.66 meters (202 feet, 3 inches).
Also on Saturday, junior Maalik Reynolds was ninth in the high jump at 2.08 meters (6-09.75 ft.) and Jordan Jett was tops for the Quakers in the triple jump with a ninth-place leap of 13.90 meters (45-07.25 ft.).
A day earlier, among 27 teams in the distance medley relay, Penn impressed again with a fourth-place finish. John Foye, Ben Bowers,Mato Bekelja and Thomas Awad stopped the clock at 9:50.23.Penn also posted three top-five finishes in the field events. Freshman Thomas Pitt now stands just outside the school's all-time top 10 with a collegiate-best effort of 2.08 meters (6 feet, 9 3/4 inches) to place him third in the Eastern high jump. Meanwhile, classmate Sam Mattis finished fourth in the discus championship at 57.11 meters (187-04 ft.) - that would have passed the school record had he not set the standard even higher during Penn's home opener last month. Junior Jake Brenza was second in the Eastern shot put with a mark of 16.39 meters (53-09.25 ft.) - his best throw of the season.
On the first day of competition, senior Mike Kiley, finished just a second shy of his personal best in the steeplechase when he placed ninth overall with a time of 9:18.56. A short while later, in the 5,000 meters, freshman Brendon Smith nearly reached Penn's all-time top 10 with a sixth-place time of 14:26.55.
After hosting the Penn Relays for the 119th consecutive year, Penn has officially completed the 2013 outdoor regular season. The Quakers will now head to Princeton for the Heptagonal Outdoor Championships, May 4-5.

Bazooo - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linkGreat Justin. I can't believe you were already working on it when I wrote to you last week. Thanks a lot! Reply
nleksan - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linkI have been waiting for a review of this case since the day it was announced. In fact, I've been holding off buying a customized CL TH10 specifically because I just love the innovative design of this new case!
Honestly, I think this is perfect for users like myself who have outgrown their Switch 810 or similar case, but don't have the need for 4 or more 560 rads just yet. Price is right, and I see this very possibly (and rightfully) taking a lot of attention away from the (recycled/boring/overpriced/low-quality) Corsair 900D.
Too bad about the res mount, but that's what modding is for! Reply
f0d - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - link900D low quality? thats the first time i have ever heard that, its much higher quality than any other case i have ever seen
its a fantanstic case - a little expensive maybe but it looks AWESOME and worth every cent i payed for it Reply
f0d - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linkwhile i like the CL cases also they are WAY too expensive in australia, i think the CHEAPEST one shipped is $800 (nobody sells them here - have to import your own) which is twice the price of a 900D Reply
Insanity133 - Friday, November 29, 2013 - linkSame here in New Zealand. Reply
KurtToni - Monday, August 12, 2013 - linkLove my job, since I've been bringing in $82h… I sit at home, music playing while I work in front of my new iMac that I got now that I'm making it online. (Home more information)
http://goo.gl/mtEmF6 Reply
JohnVonWar - Saturday, May 28, 2016 - linkIn comparison to a CL(CaseLabs) case, yes—any case made by Corsair is much, much lower quality. Caselabs makes very good, very customizable cases. Generally they require some additional aftermarket parts to truly shine, but the construction is unparalleled by nearly anyone except Thermaltake, who literally copied CaseLabs' designs...and maybe Inwin and a couple of others, but generally with a little more bang for buck. Very high buck though...they're expensive as hell. Reply
hero1 - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkYou sir are just like me and I am going to grab this case as soon as it reaches Canadian shores and shove my system into it, that will be IB-E when it comes out with GTX 780 in SLI Reply
Pyrokinetic - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linkI love a large case, and while I like the Corsair 800D, I was not completely sold on it. This case though, is fabulous. Not too huge (Corsair 900D) and has a classic look with just a touch of style. Build quality looks great. I think I have finally found a case to replace my modded Cooler Master Stacker 810. Reply
techxx - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linkBe nice to see more mini-ITX case reviews. Full ATX accounts for less than 5% of the tech enthusiast community now. Reply
Alan G - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - link+1 on the mini-ITX request; I'm starting on my third build with this size board because that's what my friends want. I'm not prepared to spend over $200 for a case like this one as it's truly overkill IMO. Even though the from panel is closed off, what does anyone need with 5 5.25" drive bays? For my photographer friends I don't even put card readers in these days because USB 3.0 readers are cheap and if a pin ever gets bent (and this does happen) they get a new one for $30 and the case doesn't have to be opened and things pulled apart and installed.
I think there are just too many good alternatives to this case for less money. Reply
BillyONeal - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linkThere need to be more mini-ITX cases worth reviewing for that :) Reply
Grok42 - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkThe truth hurts. While there are some good mITX cases that haven't been reviewed, they aren't recent cases. I can understand not wanting to review a 2-year old design but I would still appreciate it. Reply
zero2dash - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - link"Full ATX accounts for less than 5% of the tech enthusiast community now."
I'd love to see the proof to back up that statement.
You can buy plenty of enthusiast mATX/ATX boards for nearly any price point; meanwhile, if you want an enthusiast ITX board, you're going to pay out the nose for it. You're also left with only a few decent cases that do a good enough job at cooling.
ITX works if you have minimal requirements on storage and are only running a single GPU. Reply
f0d - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkwhere is the proof of "Full ATX accounts for less than 5% of the tech enthusiast community now." i know that personally i have only built 1 mini-itx vs about 15 full atx pc's in the last 3 years for friends/family
and that person is now getting me to build an ivy bridge-e full atx system when they come out Reply
noeldillabough - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkWhich board do you plan to use? I use a raid controller and a discrete sound card so features on board don't really matter to me but I want a stable board with good overclocking potential. Reply
Grok42 - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkMy last build was mITX and I can't see every building anything larger than mATX going forward. The mITX case I chose holds 10 drives. You would be amazed how much space is saved by not having any 5.25" bays.
All that said, I'm too would be surprised that only 5% of the market is full ATX case purely based on the quantity of cases available. I guess if we're at an inflection point where everyone is moving away from full ATX it's possible that only 5% bought full ATX in the past month of YTD? Reply
Barbarossa - Wednesday, August 14, 2013 - linkGeorge from Corsair here. Full towers sell in larger numbers than Mini ITX. Look at all the ~$150+ cases that are selling now: NZXT Phantoms, Cooler Master Storm Troopers/Strykers, etc. Full towers are more popular than ever.
Mini ITX is growing in popularity but among the "enthusiast" crowd, full towers have increased dramatically in market share in the last couple of years.
Mid Tower ATX is still 70-80% of the total market, with Mini ITX and Full Tower ATX growing and chipping away at the edges. The bell curve is flattening but it's still there. Reply
f0d - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linktoo much plastic and not enough room
i prefer my 900D - im so happy with that case i cant imagine ever needing another case again Reply
HisDivineOrder - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linkThen the 950D hits and you suddenly awaken one day with the very real ability to imagine it.
Take the Obsidian 900D and then make it a huge cube instead. Ba-bam. You can name your new monolith, "The Borg" and add custom Borg cube sound effects when it starts.
Resistance is futile. Reply
f0d - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkpre order placed Reply
Abot13 - Tuesday, August 13, 2013 - linkmeh, just go to caselabs, resistance there is futile for sure, untill you realise that that kind of beauty costs.... still cheaper then a girlfriend though ;) (and depreciates less quickly too) Reply
Barbarossa - Wednesday, August 14, 2013 - linkHaha, Obsidian 1080D. Reply
JamesWoods - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linkFrankly, this case is not at all worth the cost when you can get a case to house your PC and do just fine for $40. Fools and their money are soon parted. Reply
zero2dash - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linkHaving owned several high dollar cases (including a LL PC-V1000BW Plus II and a SS FT02), it's all in what you prioritize.
That being said - at this point, I'd rather stick with <$100 cases (ideally <$75) and spend the extra money on more RAM, a better GPU, or a bigger SSD, which is precisely what I've been doing the last few years. Reply
noeldillabough - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkBuying an expensive case will last you a long time, compare that to say your sli videocards that are crap in a couple of years. The worst possible investment is computer hardware; doesn't stop me from wanting the latest! Reply
Ilias78 - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - link40$ with horrible cable management, acoustics, airflow and ergonomics.
Sure bro, whatever you say. Reply
JamesWoods - Wednesday, August 14, 2013 - linkllias78 - Horrible? Apparently you haven't been shopping in awhile. There are $40 cases now that have fantastic cable management. Maybe you just suck at building PCs. Cable management isn't some big mystery. Personally, I prefer to spend the extra cash on quiet fans and still have some extra left over from what I save.
noeldillabough - You don't sell your entire system...I find it's much better to do so. Remember the switch up from USB 2.0 to USB 3.0? It's easiest to just sell the entire system and build a new one than have to buy USB 3.0 PCI cards, or USB 3.0 connection boxes for your bay drives. Reply
waldojim42 - Wednesday, August 14, 2013 - linkWhile cheap cases do work, and I still own some that are 10+ years old, I actually don't like working with them the way I do my more expensive cases. The Antec 1200 for example, has enough room that I can move things wherever I need them. So when I am running 4 video cards, I can move all my hard drives to the top of the case, and open up the air flow down below them. Something a $40 case simply won't allow.
Also worth consideration, is the filtering. I live in a dusty environment (Texas), and am constantly cleaning my filters. Better filters than dead/overheating components in the case! Reply
rpg1966 - Saturday, August 10, 2013 - linkSurely you can plot the temperature and noise levels on a single chart (temp on X, noise on Y, for example), to make the numbers understandable at a glance? Reply
Pooter - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkI understand that there's some validity to test the case out of the box in factory configuration... but do you not have watercooling equipment to test these obvious cases that are aimed at watercooling enthusiasts? Same goes for the 900d review. All the options that make this case exciting is simply glossed over if you're going to not play with all the fan/radiator/reservoir options. Reply
f0d - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkexactly.!
if i diddnt have custom watercooling and a ton of hdd's and sli graphics cards there would be hundreds of other cases to choose from
these enthusiast cases really need to be tested with pumps radiators reservoirs and push/pull fans with multiple graphics cards and 8 or so hard drives Reply
C.C. - Monday, August 12, 2013 - linkI have long hated this about Anandtech's otherwise great reviews..This case was made FOR WATERCOOLING. There is no other way to say it. You can install 5 different radiators if you choose, depending on your needs. Yet you guys can't afford to take 10 minutes to at least toss in a freaking H100/H220 for the cpu at least? Seriously, stop slacking on this watercooling cases and test them the way they were meant to tested! Reply
lwatcdr - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkI am so sick of black. Yes Black goes with everything but why not Red, Blue, Green, Orange, and Yellow cases? At this point I would even praise White, grey, and gunmetal. Reply
JamesWoods - Wednesday, August 14, 2013 - linkThey sell this thing called paint...and you call yourself an enthusiast. Where's the enthusiasm in DIY? Reply
waldojim42 - Wednesday, August 14, 2013 - linkCan you not paint?
I have painted more than one at this point, it really isn't all that hard. And you get exactly what you want! Reply
Ilias78 - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkI just found my new case. Thanks Dustin. Reply
adriangb - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkI like how the fan controller works. I've always thought it cool to split a MB PWM into multiple fans. It would also be nice to 'digitalize' it, i.e read just the load and then set a specific RPM for what the MB demands, some MB don't have very good PWM. Reply
InfiniteImp - Sunday, August 11, 2013 - linkExcellent review - thanks for this. Since I plan on a liquid cooling setup, looks like the case's one shortcoming (CPU temps) should not affect me. Can't wait to see this in Canada. This will be a worth replacement for my old faithful HAF X. Now I just need to find someone who plans to stock it! Reply
toyotabedzrock - Monday, August 12, 2013 - linkCan someone tell me why case designers have not run premade custom flat wires for every fan slot and drive slot by now? For that matter most motherboards have almost identical placement of their power connectors and the gpu power plugs are all around the same area as well.
There is no excuse for the mess. We have had the atx standard for a decade. Reply
glugglug - Monday, August 12, 2013 - linkSerious or trolling?
Because most people don't use all the drive bays?
Because motherboard SATA/fan connector placement is not part of the standard?
Because these aren't even in the same quantity on each board?
Because when ATX came out, closer to 2 decades ago, there was not such thing as SATA yet? should the cases have PATA and MFM cables built in as well?
It would be nice if they provided something close to this for the audio/reset/power connector block though. I know some motherboards might have a slightly different layout for this, but there really should at least be a standardized clip for holding those connectors in a needed arrangement so they can be slid on the motherboard all at once easily.

Insanity133 - Friday, November 29, 2013 - linkCan't wait for this case to become available in New Zealand, or at least on Amazon. Reply

A-Gon's five RBIs help Greinke earn 13th win
Dodgers pull away from Mets, add to their NL West lead
LOS ANGELES -- After pitching seven innings with it Saturday night, Zack Greinke said his right elbow isn't a problem and he dismissed his manager's concern about how it will feel on Sunday.
"I think I'm fine," Greinke said after he and the Dodgers beat the Mets, 7-4. "I'm pretty confident I'll be fine tomorrow."
Greinke snapped a four-start winless streak because Adrian Gonzalez tied a season high with five RBIs on a three-run homer, a broken-bat RBI single and a sacrifice fly. The Dodgers have won three straight and lead the National League West by 4 1/2 games over the Giants, who lost to Washington, 6-2.
Greinke said he thought he pitched "really well," despite allowing runners in every inning and four runs (three earned) on nine hits, including home runs by Juan Lagares and Lucas Duda. He walked only one, intentionally, after issuing five walks in his previous start. He used more breaking balls and fewer changeups, finishing with 105 pitches.
Kenley Jansen pitched the ninth inning for his 37th save.
Greinke downplayed the tenderness he's had in the back of the elbow, which led to his start being pushed back two days. Earlier in the week, he compared it to an episode from Spring Training 2013 that cost him three weeks of exhibition games.
"Weird circumstances gave me extra time, but I've been pretty good," he said. "Between starts it hasn't bothered me. I felt great again today. I hope that's how it stays.
"You're not going to believe me, but it really hasn't bothered me when the game's on the line. It didn't affect any of my pitches. It really isn't a big issue."
He said he'd be honest with manager Don Mattingly if he didn't feel physically able to help the team or if he thought he was putting himself at risk of serious injury.
"I have no desire to go out there and give up 10 runs or hurt myself more," he said.
Mattingly said if nobody had known Greinke had elbow issues, suspicions wouldn't have been raised by the way he pitched. But Mattingly -- who already lost Josh Beckett and Hyun-Jin Ryu to the disabled list this month -- will remain apprehensive until Sunday.
"I don't think we had any doubt that he was going to feel good tonight," Mattingly said. "Hopefully tomorrow he wakes up, comes in here and feels good. So I think that's probably what is going to tell us a little bit more than what tonight does.
"He's got some inflammation or soreness or whatever -- or he's had some. He wasn't feeling it tonight. I checked on him after the sixth. I asked him how he was feeling, he said 'perfect.' So, it makes it easy. You see the ball coming out of his hand; you see his pitches the same; you see him locating and it just makes you feel like if you don't get all the inside information, you don't think anything's wrong with this guy."
Greinke came into the game tied for fifth in league strikeouts and struck out four Mets, including Curtis Granderson and David Wright with runners in scoring position in the seventh inning.
The Dodgers turned two double plays behind him, both on Wright at-bats, the one in the fifth inning requiring maximum effort from second baseman Dee Gordon and Gonzalez at first. Third baseman Miguel Rojas' throw to second took Gordon into the runner, but he was able to keep his foot on the base and then flip off balance toward Gonzalez, who made a full-length stretch to keep his foot on the bag.
"Adrian's was maybe his most athletic play of the year, and it saved a run," said Greinke. "It was huge."
"If I don't stay on the bag, it scores a run, so it was big at the time," said Gonzalez.
Gonzalez is second in the league with 88 RBIs, on pace for 109, which would be the most for him since he had 117 in 2011.
"Adrian's a really, really good hitter, and he gets paid a lot of money to drive in runs, and that's what he did again tonight," Mets manager Terry Collins said.
Mattingly called Gonzalez the most consistent run producer the Dodgers have had since Mattingly arrived as a coach in 2008.
"Adrian is a day-in, day-out kind of grinder that picks up one, picks up two, and then obviously tonight picks up five," he said. "But one of those guys that's a day-in and day-out guy. And good at driving in runs with a guy on third, will put the ball in play when he needs to.
"I think he knows how to hit against a lefty and what they'll try to do to him with that man in scoring position. As far as consistency, I don't think we've had anybody quite like him. Matt [Kemp] has had some big years. [Andre Ethier] Dre's had some big years. But kind of day-in, day-out type of guy, Adrian's probably the most consistent."

I've written about the marvellous National Archives Podcast series quite a few times and I make no apologises for mentioning them again. The latest podcast is by renown historian and genealogist Dr Kathy Chater.
From the 1500's many people fled Europe because of religious persecution, England was often their final destination where they settled and may well feature in your family tree. These refugees were known as Huguenots, and are represented in the genealogy world by the wonderful Huguenot Society who have published many volumes of records.
This podcast entitled "Tracing Huguenot Ancestors" will assist in finding out if you have Huguenot's on a branch of your family tree and give much useful information on exploring these interesting ancestors more fully.

Two years ago, Egypt was the scene of one of Turkish prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's greatest foreign triumphs. Now it is a country that he and much of Turkey look on at with anguish, a reminder that many of Ankara's ambitions for the Middle East have come crashing to earth.
Turkey invested heavily in the Egyptian revolution and also in the government of Mohamed Morsi. Mr Erdogan was one of the first international leaders in early 2011 to call on then President Hosni Mubarak to heed the message of the demonstrators clamouring for his exit.
When, months later, Mr Erdogan visited Cairo, thousands of supporters greeted him at the airport.
Nor did ties end there. Ankara announced the extension of a $2bn loan to Cairo. Mr Morsi was acclaimed by the congress of Mr Erdogan's ruling AKP last September. Just a few days ago, the Turkish prime minister discussed his plans to visit the Gaza Strip – which he would almost certainly travel to via Egypt. That trip looks much less likely today.
In sum, the Egyptian coup may be a devastating blow to Turkey's vision of a more democratic, more Islamist-leaning Middle East in which Ankara plays a leading role, partly by virtue of philosophical ties with governments in the region, partly because of its own experience in beating back military influence.

Music and me go way back.
I went to a Lutheran school as a child. Back then they apparently had the students audition to be members of the Cherub Choir, and one day I came home from school all upset.
"They said I didn't make it," I told my folks.
So my folks asked me to sing a hymn, which I did, and then Dad talked to someone, and pretty soon I was with the rest of my classmates in the Cherub Choir.
I've always loved music, and I've always loved to sing.
Dad couldn't wait until I graduated from eighth grade and was old enough to sing in the church choir. I guess my mom didn't think too much of the idea of Dad joining the choir by himself, but it was all right for the two of us to attend.
My 20s passed without me doing much more than singing along with the radio, but my 30s brought children and more regular church attendance.
When our flock was still little, choir was too hard, especially since it would have left Dave with our four alone in the pew. (Although it would have been fine by me!)
I sang with a couple of special groups, but I didn't become a regular choir member until we moved to Spring Valley in 1993.
We joined St. John's in Peru, and I was in no hurry to join the choir. But October rolled around, and there was a special invitation for anyone to join, just for the Christmas cantata.
I joined, planning to quit after Christmas, and I've been there ever since.
I was happy with all the rest of the sopranos in the back row until the day our choir director asked me to sing a solo.
Me! Did I tell you how I didn't make the cut for Cherub Choir?
But he insisted, so I trembled my way through a verse of "Beautiful Savior." Beautiful it was not, but it gave me the confidence to start singing out. Not beautifully, perhaps, but generally tunefully.
About 10 years ago we were without a choir director. Other than one class in music theory in college, I didn't know anything about directing, and my piano playing is two fingers, four if there aren't any sharps or flats.
I offered to direct just long enough for the Christmas cantata, and that, as they say, was that.
I'm still there, choosing music, and directing and singing along with all four parts.
Now we are in the process of wrapping up our singing for the season. This will be my last season as director as time and events have called me to other opportunities.
I'm afraid I'm making the most of my "farewell tour," and we're singing all of my favorites. May 19 will be our last Sunday, and I've saved my best for last.
We have a wide range of talent in our choir – ranging from the sublime to the one-noters – but we all believe in the power of music.
So I'll be singing out, wherever, whenever, I'm called to sing.
I'll share my gift, as great or as small as it might be.
I'll make my joyful noise, every chance I get.
And if you're there and listening, I'll be the one with the slightly flat high E.

BUILDING inspectors have been given a "very severe reprimand" over checks on a block of flats in North Yorkshire where a fire killed two teenage jockeys.
Jamie Kyne, 18, and Jan Wilson, 19, died in the blaze at The Tannery in Buckrose Court, Norton, in September 2009. Labourer Peter William Brown, 39, was later jailed indefinitely after being convicted of their manslaughter.
North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Authority subsequently made a formal complaint to the Construction Industry Council (CIC) over the "conduct" of an approved building control inspector, JHAI Limited. It was "dissatisfied" with the way the company dealt with a building control submission relating to the flats which required them to consult with the authority.
A statement from the authority said an initial complaint from North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service, using JHAI's internal complaints procedure, had not reached a "satisfactory outcome". A formal complaint was then made to the CIC, which licensed JHAI.
The complaint has now been upheld following a disciplinary hearing. A statement from the CIC today said: "The disciplinary panel decided that there had been a very serious breach and the appropriate sanction was a very severe reprimand.
"This sanction will be published on the CIC website for 12 months. The disciplinary panel was pleased to hear that JHAI had implemented changes to their procedures since the date of the complaint.
"The disciplinary panel considered that, in order to assure CIC that the reported procedural improvements have been made and are effective, an audit of these should take place within the next six months."
The CIC said the sanction did not prevent JHAI continuing to operate as an approved inspector. It also said the formal complaint made by the fire authority was confidential.
JHAI Limited's chairman Matt Read said the error related to the issuing of a "final certificate" for Buckrose Court without consulting the fire authority, although the block did comply with building regulations. He said the fire which killed Mr Kyne and Miss Wilson was "dreadful and tragic", and the "lapse in procedure" happened under the company's previous owners.
"In consultation with North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service, we have undertaken a top-to-bottom review to ensure this type of procedural error could not happen today," he said.
"The CIC has complimented us on the thoroughness of this review and on the staff training we have implemented. We approve more than 6,000 projects every year and this is the only time any kind of complaint against us has ever been upheld."

A William Robinson hat-trick sent Harvesters Under-9s North to a 5-0 away win at Whetstone Lions in the cup on Sunday.

Amalie Newman-Booth and Eve Shaw scored braces in Harvesters Under-11s Girls' 6-2 victory over Bury Rangers.
Neat, passing football was played by Harvesters as Emily Giovanni and Rachel Dodd also scored in a game that doubled up on the 3-1 advantage secured in a confident first-half display.
Ade Oyefusi's man-of-the-match display for Harvesters Under-11s South was not enough to prevent his team going down 4-1 to Bushey & Oxhey Bears in the league. Harry Ruane grabbed the only goal for the losing side.
Harvesters Under-12s Girls' team succumbed to a 2-0 defeat against a strong Enfield Town side in the League Cup quarter-final with Sabrina Spring producing an impressive individual performance.
A hat-trick of hat-tricks were scored by Harvesters Under-12s North as they routed Edmonton Rangers Jaguars 12-0 in the Second Round of the League Cup.
Finbar King, Amir Berchill and Louie Roberts were left to fight for the match ball and two goals from William Brothwood, plus George O'Connor's effort, contributed to an impressive result.
Maya Yapp excelled for Harvesters Under-13s Girls in a 6-1 win over Berkhamsted.
Player-of-the-match Yapp and Julia Draper grabbed a brace apiece with Bolu Fisher and Rebecca McShane also converting in a game Harvesters were always in control of, gelling particularly well in the final quarter of the game.
A four-goal second half display put pay to St Albans City's challenge on Saturday as Harvesters Under-14s Girls romped to a 5-0 win.
Star player Molly Rogan, scored twice and Olivia Syson, Megan Samuel and Robyn Reardon were also on target on a pleasing day for the team.
Liam Kirby put in a man-of-the-match performance for Harvesters Under-16s South as they were thrashed 6-0 by Everett Rovers thanks, in part, to a particularly strong second half performance from Rovers.

text: Green River Fishing Report from Ryan Kelly of Flaming Gorge ResortFlows: 800Hatches: Lots of Midges, Some BWO'sFishing remained good this week despite copious amounts of wind and a few inches of snow. The wind blew so hard at times it was picking up water and shooting it up the canyon walls. It was a sight to behold, but very hard to fish in. Fortunately, this weeks forecast looks fantastic. We saw solid midge hatches and a few more Blue Wings on the water. Dry fly fishing still remains fair as pods of rising fish remain spotty. If you get into a good pod it can be pretty good. It takes some hunting though. Nymph fishing has been strong with larger midge hatches. Midges range in size from a 16 all the way down to microscopic. BWO's are around a #16. More consistent BWO hatches are probably a week or two away still. The lower river has had some good streamer fishing still. We didn't catch numbers this week, but the fish quality was excellent. In this weeks pics I included a typical A section bow, a nice 20+ inch C section brown, midges accumulating on my boat, and a JuJu baetis (one of the most popular BWO nymphs here on the river).

Did you know?
Diamonds are measured in carats. The name comes from the carob seed once used as the standard for weighing precious stones. One carat weighs 0.2 grams.
When a 15-year-old farm boy named Erasmus Jacobs picked up a shiny stone under a tree near a town called Hopetown, on the Orange River in the Northern Cape region of South Africa back in 1867, he had no idea that his discovery was about to spark off an enormous diamond rush.
Or that the diamond, which became known as Eureka, would lead to the establishment of the city of Kimberley.
And that Kimberley, in turn, would lend its name to kimberlite, the rock formed in volcanic pipes in which these precious stones were formed.
You can learn more facts like these and see how diamonds are crafted into beautiful jewellery at the Cape Town Diamond Museum, located on the first floor of the Clock Tower Centre at the V&A Waterfront.
A small display tells you how diamonds became the ultimate romantic gift; about famous characters like Barney Barnato and Cecil John Rhodes, who shaped South Africa's history; and how to judge the value of a diamond by its clarity, cut, colour and carat.
For a time after the initial discovery of that first South African diamond, 95% of the world's production took place around Kimberley, at diggings that were as chaotic as they were profitable.
Today things are different. South African sales are strictly regulated to ensure the diamonds are ethically sourced, and the Clock Tower is a good place to do a bit of diamond shopping.
The Cape Town Diamond Museum is a non-profit venture developed by a leading diamond designer, Yair Shimansky, who wanted to give something back to the city.
Once you have been through the formal section of the display, you can enter the workshop (which doesn't technically form part of the museum) and see highly skilled cutters and polishers behind glass, working on designs patented by Shimansky himself, among them My Girl, Brilliant 10, Evolym (My Love spelled backwards) and Eight Hearts.
After your visit, wander around the Waterfront, have a bite to eat at the water's edge and contemplate that Eureka moment back in 1867, that was to shape South Africa's history in fundamental ways.

Trowbridge garage co-owner Steve Cade is running the London Marathon for the first time to raise funds for the Rainbow Trust to say thanks for the support it has given a family member.
Mr Cade, who runs DMC Auto Engineers with Steve Milsom, will be taking part in the 26 mile charity challenge, on April 13, in aid of the charity, which supports terminally-ill children, because of the help it gave to 14-year-old Emily White, a cousin of his wife Emma.
The teenager, who lives in Melksham, has neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation and the trust runs days out for her and advises the family on her condition.
The father of two, who has never run a marathon, is currently training hard and hopes his friends, family and customers will donate to his endurance effort.
Mr Cade, 35, who has previously run the Bath Half Marathon, said: "I'm really pleased to do this for the Rainbow Trust as they are great for Emily and the family.
"I haven't got a fundraising target, but I'd like to get them as much money as possible. The same applies to finishing the marathon, I just want to get to the end and I don't mind what time I do it in.
"This is the first time I have applied to take part and I was told it usually takes a couple of years to get on so I was a bit surprised to find out I was doing it this year.
"But I enjoy running and I'm training hard. I've had lots of support from my wife and two children Harry and Evie."
DMC's customers have been getting leaflets about the Rainbow Trust's work and a link to Mr Cade's fundraising web page with every invoice the company gives out.
The Avon Valley Run-ners member said: "I've received some donations from customers and the good thing is that even if they don't give money I'm still helping to raise the trust's profile."

Cay TV -July 23, 2008
Adnan Oktar: This is so natural. Our religion is one, our language is one, everything between us is alike, we come from the same roots, and we are brothers but we are separate. Today if we tell Azerbaijan 'let's all unite', they wouldn't think twice before approving and accepting our offer. Therefore it only needs to be formally requested. In other words two states would unite as one nation, with ease. There are no visible obstacles. The same goes for Kazakhstan, Kirghizstan , Turkmenistan, East Turkestan all of which will gain tranquility from this unity, the Islamic world, Iraq and Syria are also eager to unite with Turkey. The only matter is for Turkey to clearly emphasize this, that is to say to put a label to it. A request is all that is necessary for this.
Ekin TV -January 29, 2009
Adnan Oktar: There is one solution to this. One and only solution physically and spiritually: the Turkish Islamic Union. With the leadership of Turkey, with the support of the Turkish states, and yes, a a great and enormous unity embracing all Islamic countries, a great Islamic Union. This formation will be the world's most honest, respected, trusted, the most dignified super structure. In other words, we are from the same descent, same religion, same race, so we are identical all in all. There are several doors, let those doors be opened. Let the doors of Azerbaijan be opened, doors of Georgia, doors of Iran, doors of Iraq and Syria. Turkestan's doors be opened. Let's visit them with ease and comfort and deal in trades to the upmost, talk with them, share opinions with them, they are a piece of us, our brothers, they are our vital organs just like our kidneys, so to speak. That is why when we head to the entrance, to doors, why must we show passworts, let's pass with our cars stress free.

I mostly use 3.x, and use 2.x to run othjers programs. But I actually just noticed this tinkering in the interpreter of 2.x:
So print as a function, range() (i think there was something else) all work without using __future__, I could of sworn that maybe a year or two ago range() would break 2.x. Or maybe you dont need __future__ for 2.7.4 anymore?
