Harbour Bridge accident causes delays
Traffic is backed up several kilometres after a car and a motorcycle collided on the Harbour Bridge. Vision: Sunrise, Seven Network.
The extensive delays due to the crash on one of the major arterial routes into central Sydney has again highlighted the vulnerability of the city's transport network.
Two of four city-bound lanes were closed opposite Milsons Point station just before 6am on Wednesday when a motorcycle and car collided. One of three northbound lanes was also shut.
All lanes were reopened about 8am once emergency crews cleared the crash, and police investigators had completed their work.
Just before 8.30am, city-bound traffic approaching the Harbour Bridge was queued 12 kilometres, extending all the way to the start of the M2 motorway.
Buses travelling over the Harbour Bridge were delayed up to 60 minutes, while those driving across the Anzac Bridge were up to 80 minutes late.
Opposition roads spokeswoman Jodi McKay said the accident highlighted the fragility of Sydney's traffic network and how easily it could be tipped into chaos, especially with the closure of George Street for the construction of a $2.1 billion light rail line.
"The government needs to answer a number of questions: namely why ... it took more than two hours to clear the scene of the accident?" she said.
"Clearly the protocols that deal with incidents like this didn't work and the government needs to explain why."
She suggested motorists who paid a toll on the bridge on Wednesday should get a refund.
Roads Minister Duncan Gay is due to hold a press conference at 1pm.
In an effort to help solve Sydney's traffic woes, the Baird government is pushing ahead with the $16.8 billion WestConnex motorway project.
An updated business case for the controversial project is due shortly, and will take into account additions such as a western crossing of Sydney Harbour. If built, it is likely to run from the Balmain peninsula to North Sydney.
Greens transport spokeswoman Mehreen Faruqi said the traffic chaos was what could happen when a city relied heavily on motor vehicles.
"Rather than building more motorways, like the government wants to do, we need to ask why thousands of motorists have to drive across the bridge to get to work in the first place. The answer is pretty obvious: a lack of transport options," she said.
The Baird government has embarked on Australia's largest public transport project. A 65-kilometre metro rail line will eventually connect to Bankstown in the city's south-west via stations in the Sydney CBD.
For much of Wednesday morning, traffic was heavy back to the Lane Cove Tunnel, the M2 motorway, and Military and Victoria roads, while northbound vehicles moved slowly past the City West Link on to Parramatta Road, and past Broadway and Wattle Street.
A NSW Police spokeswoman said a 38-year-old male motorcyclist was thrown from his bike and landed on the road in the accident.
He is believed to have suffered a fractured femur, and has been taken to St Vincent's Hospital. His injuries are not thought to be life-threatening.
The 25-year-old female driver of the Volkswagen involved in the crash was not injured, and is assisting police with their inquiries.
It is believed one of the vehicles may have crossed a lane immediately before the head-on collision.
However, police said it was it too early in their investigation to comment on the cause of the crash.
City-bound buses using Epping Road took an alternative route via the Pacific Highway at the Lane Cove Tunnel and rejoined the bridge at North Sydney, instead of using the Gore Hill Freeway.
Buses on the M40 route travelled via Crows Nest and North Sydney rather than via the freeway. School buses in Hunters Hill were also been delayed up to half an hour.

real deals
We are not simply interested in advertising to your employees. We make sure there is a great offer attached to every perk.

That's why we work so hard behind the scenes, following up on their requests to ensure that the products your employees want to see in WorkPerks® are added quickly.
ongoing communication
Introducing your employees to WorkPerks® is only the beginning. We regularly communicate new products, great offers, and money-saving tips to your staff to ensure that they are getting the most out of the program.
Here are just some of canada's leading companies that are using WorkPerks® for their employees...
"I used the Day's Inn perk this past March when I went to Buffalo for my birthday weekend with my best friend. We stayed at the Days Inn and Suites Niagara Falls/Buffalo hotel and the room for the night was only $67 all taxes in, which gave us more spending money for our shopping excursions! It was at least a 20% savings because other hotels were at about $100/night. I have found WorkPerks® to be easy to use and has some great deals. I used it earlier in the year to get a good deal at Ste Anne's Spa, which I hope is available again next year!"
WorkPerks® provides private access to a wide range of discounted products and value-added services — we call them perks. A single online access point connects your employees to local, regional and national perks. Within seconds your staff can start saving money on the products and services they want and need.

In What the Best College Teachers Do (Harvard University Press, 2004), Ken Bain concludes that effective teaching faculty "Have some systematic program… to assess their own efforts and to make appropriate changes" (p. 19). CATL's consultation services are designed to help all Elon faculty to be systematic and reflective in assessing teaching and learning.
All consultations about teaching and individual courses are formative, voluntary and developmental, and not part of the formal faculty evaluation process. We will consult with a faculty member only at her/his request, and we will share materials generated for the teaching consultation only with the faculty member involved.
In a consultation, your faculty consultant will offer collegial support informed by research on learning and teaching. We will not tell you how to teach, but we will ask questions and explore possibilities so that you can meet your teaching and learning goals.
Consultation topics range, but often focus on a topic such as these:
Consultations will be tailored to meet the goals of individual faculty, using one or a combination of approaches, each of which provides a different set of data for you to use to analyze your teaching and your students' learning:
A consultation can be as simple as a focused conversation about a particular class, teaching technique, technology, or question about student learning. We also might discuss options for how you could gather data from your students about how a class is going right now, so you don't have to wait for end-of-term evaluations to get some feedback.
Midterm student focus group
We can also provide a more structured way to gather midterm feedback from students. Research on this technique, called a Small Group Instructional Diagnosis (SGID), demonstrates that these focus groups typically lead to more student learning and greater student satisfaction. The process involves setting aside about 20 minutes of class time to allow a consultant to gather written feedback and to talk with students while you are not present. The consultant then meets with you and together you analyze the feedback, discussing how you might respond to the range of student comments generated by the focus groups. To request a mid-semester focus group, please fill out the request form, due by the end of business day on Friday, March 17. We will take requests until then, unless we reach scheduling capacity before that date.
Classroom observation
A consultant can observe your classroom teaching. After the visit, the consultant will discuss with you what was observed; together, you and the consultant can develop strategies for further experimentation and refinement, and identify areas for ongoing reflection. A teaching observation works particularly well if you already have engaged in some analysis of your own teaching, but would like another perspective.
Videotaped analysis
With advanced planning, you can have your class taped and then watch the recording with a consultant. This kind of analysis offers you the chance to observe and reflect on your practice through a different "lens" than when you're involved in the moment-to-moment teaching process. These must be scheduled in advance to allow for equipment reservation and coordination.
To schedule a consulting appointment contact Sarah Williams in the Center for the Advancement of Teaching and Learning at (336) 278-5106 or email email@example.com.
To request a mid-semester focus group and consultation, fill out the request form, by Friday, March 17. (We will take requests until then, unless we reach scheduling capacity before that date.)
Note: if you have a specific question about Moodle or instructional technology, our colleagues in Teaching and Learning Technologies (TLT) can provide just-in-time, useful information about various tools and apps. To schedule an appointment, contact TLT at (336) 278-5006 or email firstname.lastname@example.com. Teaching and Learning Technologies also welcomes drop-in questions in Belk Library room 115 on weekdays between 8am and 5pm.

The Latimer case directly concerned the rights of persons with disabilities. Mr. Latimer's view was that a parent has the right to kill a child with a disability if that parent decides the child's quality of life no longer warrants its continuation. CCD explained to the court and to the public how that view threatens the lives of people with disabilities and is deeply offensive to fundamental constitutional values. Learn more.

Not content with have the quickest cop cars on Earth, Dubai Civil Defence has asked Guinness World Records to register the customised supercars as second to none in the emergency services stakes.
Specially modified to hit speeds of up to 210mph, you might have seen these funky motors patrolling the city's motorways already.
In fact, the beasts have already come into their own during emergencies on our major highways, eclipsing the response time of the rather cumbersome engines more regularly in use.
As well as being supercharged, the cars have been modified to include monitoring devices to keep track of any issues on the roads and are fitted with fire extinguishers and first aid equipment.
Al Rahoomi says he has a positive response from Guinness, which has confirmed "there is no registered fire truck that with the same specifications as ours".

Back in 1974 when he borrowed $500 and started selling Corvette items like owner's manuals and T-shirts out of the trunk of a borrowed car at swap meets and Corvette shows, Mike Yager could never dream 38 years later he'd be the Chief Cheerleader of the wildly successful Mid America Motorworks.
But it's no dream.
In fact, at the prestigious Bloomington Gold in Champaign, Illinois from June 28-30, 2013, Yager will be inducted into the Bloomington Gold Great Hall, the most prestigious recognition of people and cars in Corvette's history.

Where to Recycle in El Paso County
Recycling is the processing of used materials into new products to prevent the end-of-life of potentially useful items. This is accomplished by redirecting an item that has already provided initial value and creating something usable, either for the original purpose or another. There are many benefits to recycling: it saves energy, decreases emissions of greenhouse gasses, and conserves natural resources such as timber, water, and minerals. Many things that you see around you every day can be recycled. To assist in this effort, El Paso County publishes a Recycling Directory designed to provide residents options to recycle many different materials.
Single Stream Recycling
Currently, the El Paso County Household Hazardous Waste Facility offers single stream recycling to households at no charge. The recycling bins are self-service, and are on a first come, first served basis. The bins are open 7am until 4:45pm or until full Wednesday and Friday ONLY. This is a registration based service, call 520-7878 to inquire about registration.

I keep small babies safe. In general I do that by wearing them, or by having a safe place to put them like a playpen.
I stop toddlers (the age in question) from serious injury or death. I guess small bumps, scrapes or scary things don't bother me. My 3yo still rides RFing in her carseat because that's actually a real safety thing.
I do think that this sets up an element of not parenting.
Or maybe I'm just not a fan of obsessive baby proofing.
I can't imagine not being the same room as my toddler unless they are sleeping (presumably not in the room with the tree). So when would they get the chance to climb the tree or pull it over?
Mom to 10yo Autistic Wonder Boy and 6yo Inquisitive Fireball Girl . December birthdays.
Taking the time to teach and parent means different things to different people. I'd rather my kids have a safe place to explore freely than have a picture perfect living room.
I'd rather cage the tree than the kid, but that's just me.
Exactly this. I think if anything on this thread is "not parenting" I'm going to have to go with putting the baby in a playpen rather than putting a gate around the tree.
Our house is basically toddler-proofed. It's also a large ranch. DD wanders into the living room when I'm in the kitchen all the time. I love knowing that she's safe even when out of eyesight.
I'd also much rather keep things I don't want her playing with out of reach than telling her "no" all the time. I want her to explore her environment - the last thing I want to do is discourage that.
FWIW, my nativity collection is up on a shelf, well out of her reach. I have the study wooden one where she can reach it.
Ak Hippie mama Yamia DSD '03 DS '07 DS2 '09 & DS3 '12
Third, the idea that you can always be within arm's reach only works when you have one child. And arm's reach really isn't close enough to keep super persistent and curious kids out of things all the time. Some kids are more passive, but some of us were blessed with children who make our days feel like we are trying to contain lightening while herding cats.
Becky, partner to Teague, SAHM to Keagan (7yo), Jonah (2yo)
I can't be the only one....
to have a play yard or baby gate up around the Christmas Tree?
Kristy, wife to Josh proud mama to Katie: since 3/08 and Emma since 8/12.
Those who think that enough re-directing would keep a tree safe don't know my DD. Seriously. On several occasions, I have spent literally 45 min or longer constantly re-directing my dd away from opening the dishwasher and climbing on the door. I redirect her until I physically block the door, which results in her standing in front of the dishwasher howling while yanking on the door trying to open it. FUN! I still have trouble keeping her off it. She's smart, she's quick and she's stubborn.
Really, it's like those harness backpacks. You can use them and have the child get 5-10ft of safe exploring space as you go for walks, or you can make them hold your hand all the time, or you can make them hold onto the stroller and get put into the stroller if they let go for an instant. Those harnesses are "bad/lazy parenting" in some books too.
When did our society (as represented by your relatives RocketGirl) get the insane notion that quality of parenting is directly proportional to the number of times a parent says "no"?

With names like Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Jean-Claude Van Damme and Chuck Norris, Expendables 2 has no shortage of self-esteem.
That's a good thing, says Schwarzenegger.
"We all have huge egos," the former governer of California said at Wednesday night's Expendables 2 Hollywood premiere. "We competed against each other in the '80s and the '90s and in the last 10 years, even though I was out of it for eight years doing the governorship."
"But still it was always a competition -- who has the biggest muscles, the best fight scenes, the best punch, who has the biggest gun, who kills people in the most unique way," he added.
That just makes it all the more of a draw when Expendables 2 opens on Friday.
Gallery: See who else was at the premiere
"The people know that," said Schwarzenegger. "And now we are all together in one movie. So that's what makes it very interesting (for them)."
Schwarzenegger was in rare form on Wednesday and seeming very much back at home back on the black carpet.
"I said I'd be back, and I'm back," he said. "And it's great to be back."

But it doesn't mean I can't love reds. Reds like this.
NYX Girls Amber Fire is a medium red with a shimmer, a burnt orange shimmer.
I'm really not a big fan of shimmer (or frost, I really can't tell) polish but this one is love.
I'm obsessed! Can't stop looking (and taking pics) at my nails even while I'm at the bazaar!
|ring from forever21
I even got a matching ring!
|ring from The Heiress Collections
I'm amazed with the formula, on how easy it was to apply on my nails, so easy I did my nails at around 4am and I'm done 10 to 15minutes later! I've had some NYX nail polishes before and they're ok, just ok, unlike this one, which I love. Maybe because this one is from a different line? NYX Girls, unlike my NYX Las Vegas Green or Purple which is just NYX nail polish, not NYX Girls nail polish. Haha. Sorry, I'm not making any sense at all!

The owners of a new Oxford Street store for plus-size shoppers which opened today, hours after the end of London Fashion Week, said their customers had felt ignored by the skinny-obsessed fashion industry for too long.
The three-storey London flagship of the Simply Be and Jacamo brands stocks women's clothes in sizes 10 to 32 and menswear in small to 5XL.
The 6,500 sq ft store was opened by former England cricket captain Andrew Flintoff, who has spoken about his battles with weight gain and bulimia, and Candice Huffine, the first plus-size woman to be included in the Pirelli calendar.
A collection from the Ashes hero called Flintoff by Jacamo is on sale along with designer brands such as Penguin, Voi jeans and Lambretta. The £1 million store has been designed to make plus-size shoppers feel more comfortable.
Female mannequins range up to size 16, the average for British women, while the male ones are of a "more athletic build". In- store images feature models up to size 18.
The fitting room cubicles are larger than usual and a biometric scanner is also available to match clothes to the body size and shape of each customer. Angela Spindler, chief executive of the Manchester-based N Brown retail group which owns the brands, said: "We get excellent feedback from people who shop in our stores.
"When we open on a high street it means larger people can go shopping and not be made to feel uncomfortable. They feel the industry has not always been sympathetic to them in the past."
She added: "One of the reasons large customers feel alienated and ignored by the fashion industry is that it has not designed clothes for them that are fashionable and enjoyable to wear."
There were some signs of change at London Fashion Week, with high street chain Evans holding its first plus-size catwalk show.
It included designs from Clements Ribeiro, Giles Deacon, Hema Kaul, Lulu Liu, Jamie Wei Huang and Vita Gottlieb.Reuse content

Finding Co-Officiants: A Multi-Step Process
This article has been reprinted with permission from InterfaithFamily
By Laura Free
Our first hurdle in planning an interfaith wedding (other than the insanity of touring and booking a venue) was finding an officiant and creating a ceremony that reflected both of us. The day after we got engaged, I began fumbling around for some guidance. I knew what a Catholic wedding looked like, but I had no idea what was important in a Jewish ceremony, much less what we could do if we wanted to combine them.
As the daughter of a lifelong librarian, I put my research skills to the test. Surprisingly, my local library had exactly what I was looking for. A quick search in the card catalog for "interfaith marriage" turned up a fabulous book by Rabbi Devon A. Lerner: Celebrating Interfaith Marriages: Creating Your Jewish/Christian Ceremony. Yes! Exactly what I was looking for! It's like someone has done this already…
Jewish, Muslim Manchester Mourners Have Been Friends For 10 Years
The elderly Jewish woman and Muslim man whose photo mourning together at a memorial to the victims of the Manchester attack went viral on social media say they have been good friends for over 10 years.
Renee Black, 93, and Sadiq Patel, 46, from Blackburn, Lancashire, one of the most deprived and racially segregated areas in Britain, are both members of The Interfaith Forum, a voluntary group devoted to promoting harmony between different faiths and ethnic communities, the Daily Mail reported.
From heartbreak to hope: renewing a legacy of Muslim-Jewish solidarity
I can never forget the first moment I felt my heart breaking. I was at school, reading through a textbook when I turned the page to a small grey and white image. It captured a moment that will stay with me forever: of Jewish children being humiliated in front of their classmates because of their faith.
The lessons of history remind us of a pain we must never forget, but it was outside of the classroom, many years later that history also gave me a crucial legacy of hope.
The Chief Rabbi And The Archbishop: Pushing Beyond Interfaith Clichés
Ephraim Mirvis and Justin Welby strike a historic blow against anti-Semitism.
It was moving to see one of the world's most important Christian leaders stand at Yad Vashem earlier this month, declaring that anti-Semitism should become so alien that it would be "something that is only found mysteriously in old history books." And it wasn't only what Justin Welby, leader of the world's third-largest Christian grouping said that made the sight so moving — but who he said it with.
Welby is Archbishop of Canterbury, meaning that he leads the world's 80 million Anglicans, and as he spoke about anti-Semitism in Jerusalem, his travel companion stood behind him, and then picked up where he left off. Archbishop Welby had told Commonwealth Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis that he would be visiting Israel, and realizing that the rabbi has been living in Jerusalem for a two-year stint and knows the city well, invited him to join the trip.
RE-READING RUTH: Not "Ruth and Her Conversion" but "Ruth and her Interfaith Marriage"
This article has been reprinted with permission from InterfaithFamily
by Rabbi Robyn Frisch
"Wherever you go, I will go; wherever you lodge, I will lodge; your people shall be my people, and your God my God." (Ruth 1:16)
These words, spoken by the young widow Ruth to her mother-in-law Naomi, are among the most well known and most powerful words in the Bible. They express Ruth's commitment to Naomi—and to Naomi's people and Naomi's God. With this declaration, Ruth the Moabite cast her lot with the lot of the Jewish people, and she recognized the God of Israel as her God.

From the moment the fourth goal was scored in FC Bayern's Champions League semi-final first leg victory over Barcelona, the talk has been of a new era. The subsequent completion of the Treble and the arrival of Pep Guardiola were to usher in a new age of dominance, in which Bayern reclaim their once proud position as the most powerful club in Europe.
The reality though, is not so simple. On the field, Bayern have already shown that the adjustment to suit the Guardiola philosophy is not something that will transpire overnight. The 4-2 defeat to Borussia Dortmund in the German Supercup last weekend was a timely reality check in an environment of undiluted optimism.
Off the field, meanwhile, there is not so much sign of a new golden age as there is of an old one being brought to its knees. For while Bayern were mercilessly rampaging through Germany and Europe last season, their president and most recognisable figurehead, Uli Hoeness, has been fighting the authorities in a bid to avoid a prison sentence for tax evasion.
It is one of the biggest scandals in German football since the match fixing crisis of 1971. In April, it emerged that Hoeness, the divisive figure responsible for making FC Bayern München what it is today, had in January submitted a self-disclosure of unpaid taxes on a bank account in Switzerland, originally set up in 2001.
Hoeness' love of the markets has always been well documented. A conservative to the bone and a man whose financial and footballing nouse led FC Bayern to be the economic heavyweight they are today, it now seems that his passion for the Börse may bring about his downfall. The self disclosure led to an investigation, and in March Hoeness opened the door to the public prosecution, a search and arrest warrant in hand. "From that day," the Bayern President later told Die Zeit "my life changed. That was the first day of hell".
Having paid a reported sum of several millions Euros he was granted bail, but the prospect of court proceedings has hung over him and his football club ever since the public revelation of the affair in April. Even while his players lifted the European Cup at Wembley, Hoeness was reluctant to be seen holding the trophy himself. When he eventually did, the boos from the still present Dortmund fans drowned out any appreciation showed by those faithful to him.
The faithful though, are a hearty group. Hoeness' closest friends and colleagues – Franz Beckenbauer and Karl-Heinz Rummenigge among them – have all come out to support him, while the Bayern board refused his offer to step down from his positions as President and Chairman while the affair was ongoing.
Yesterday, though, his worst fears were realised, just days after he had told ZDF that he was "relatively optimistic that things will end well." Yesterday it was announced that official court proceedings will be opened, with a confirmation expected towards the end of September. And in the worst case scenario, Uli Hoeness, the most long serving, influential member of the German footballing hierarchy, may face prison.
For FC Bayern, it is a crisis in stark contrast to the great new age they are supposed to be cultivating on the pitch. Should Hoeness face the worst punishment possible, moreover, it would strike not only at him but at the very heart of the club and what it stands for. Since 1979, Hoeness has epitomised FC Bayern – for over three decades he has fulfilled the role either of club manager or president. In that time, not only has he brought the club unthinkable wealth and success, but has also come to represent the model of financial responsibility for which the Bundesliga has now come to be admired.
While Bayern, under Hoeness' leadership, remain able to outmuscle all other German clubs, they have also proved themselves capable of helping them out. The loan that Hoeness and Bayern gave to Borussia Dortmund in the middle of the last decade has been well documented in light of their recent rivalry, while Hoeness was also responsible for a benefit match whose proceeds led to the economic survival of cult left wing club St. Pauli in 2003. Even Bayern's greatest rivals have benefited from Hoeness' philanthropy. Two years ago, the Bayern Ultras raised a rare voice of protest against their President when he moved to offer financial support to crisis stricken TSV 1860 Munich.
His willingness to indulge in Kooperenz (and amalgamation of the German words for "co-operation" and "competition") has in recent times allowed Bayern to hold the moral high ground over the financial behemoths of other leagues. Not only do they avoid debt, they also actively help the competition in order to keep their own league healthy. As with all moral high grounds, it has not gone without a certain amount of resentment, but a moral high ground it remains.
Most importantly, it is a moral high ground which embodies FC Bayern and Uli Hoeness. Should it be destroyed, the club would find itself in unknown territory. To put it in context, FC Bayern without Uli Hoeness and the persona he has created for himself is like Manchester United without Sir Alex Ferguson, multiplied by one hundred.
In times like these – when Bayern are recreating themselves as the major power in European football – they can ill afford to lose their guiding star. Received wisdom is that nothing will be able to stop the German Champions this year, but if Hoeness were to fall, it would cause a split in the club's hierarchy to rival those which frequently occur at Barcelona or Real Madrid.
For while this is inherently a private issue for Uli Hoeness, such things are now inextricable from his football club. The bank account in question came into being with a payment from then adidas chief executive and friend of Hoeness, Robert-Louis Dreyfus. Dreyfus is not implicated in any wrongdoing and the sports manufacturer remains among Bayern's most important sponsors.
With Pep Guardiola having ostensibly joined on the premise that Bayern offer the most secure environment in which to build a new legacy, Bayern would be walking on a tightrope if the Hoeness affair were to escalate further. Thus far, the new coach's wishes have been granted and thus far, he appears comfortable in his new environment. Should the board change and the demands on Guardiola follow suit, Bayern's newfound hegemony of Europe could hit the rocks before it even leaves the harbour.
For now, as with the entirety of 2013, Hoeness and those around him must play the waiting game. They must wait for the court to decide on a date, and then they must fight and wait for a decision over the extent of his guilt. The loyalty currently being shown to the Bayern President will no doubt endure. Franz Beckenbauer once hit number 31 in the charts with a song called Gute Freunde kann niemand trennen ("Nobody can come between good friends"), and it is to that infamous refrain that he and Hoeness' other contemporaries will return. Because they trust in Uli, because they believe him to be innocent of little more than human error, and – perhaps most importantly – because they know that if Hoeness falls, FC Bayern München teeters on the precipice.Reuse content

Buhari, a son of Daura in north eastern state of Katsina was born on December 17, 1942, to his father Adamu and mother, Zulaihat.
His first stint as political leader was between December 31, 1983 and August 27, 1985 when he served as Nigeria's Head of State after overthrowing the government of President Shehu Shagari in a coup.
Buhari was in turn overthrown in a coup led by General Ibrahim Babangida in 1985.
The rather 'restless' politician went on to contest the 2003, 2007 and 2011 presidential elections as a civilian but was defeated each time. Once against the Late Yar' Adua in 2007, against Olusegun Obasanjo in 2003 and the immediate past Goodluck Jonathan in 2011.
He won the March 28, 2015 polls against Jonathan to become Nigeria's president President, and also the first person to unseat an incumbent Nigerian president in democratic elections.

Methane emissions along a salt marsh salinity gradient

The seasonal flux of methane to the atmosphere was measured at three salt marsh sites along a tidal creek. Average soil salinities at the sites ranged from 5 to 17 ppt and fluxes ranged from below detection limits (less than 0.3 mgCH4 m-2 d-1) to 259 mgCH4 m-2 d-1. Annual flux to the atmosphere was 5.6 gCH4 m-2 from the most saline site, 22.4 gCH4 m-2 from the intermediate site, and 18.2 gCH4 m-2 from the freshest of the three sites. Regression of the amount of methane in the soil with flux indicates that changes in this soil methane can account for 64% of the observed variation in flux. Data on pore water distributions of sulfate suggests that the activity of sulfate reducing bacteria is a primary control on methane flux in these transitional environments. Results indicate that relatively high emissions of methane from salt marshes can occur at soil salinities up to approximately 13 ppt. When these data are combined with other tidal marsh studies, annual CH4 flux to the atmosphere shows a strong negative correlation with the long term average soil salinity over a range from essentially fresh water to 26 ppt.

Sail Date: February 16, 2008

Traveled As: Family (older children)
Room Type: Oceanview
Pros: Good food, I love the free-style concept, Every crusie employee went "overboard" to meet all our needs and expectations
Cons: Three of our four stops involved tendering from an offshore anchoring to the pier. It takes much longer to get to shore with that method and is not very convenient.

|Belize City, Belize
Got a late start on the 7 hour excursion, so we had no time to shop for tourist junk. Otherwise, the visit was exciting. This country is also economically depressed, but the locals are a very proud people and enjoy showing off their country.
Don't Miss: Myan Ruins were a treat.
|Coxen Hole, Roatan, Bay Islands, Honduras
Locals were friendly. The island is a "poor" island of hard workers. The excursion was a tour of the island and allowed us to see the true picture of the area, which is economically depressed, however the locals were freindly and seemed happy
Don't Miss: I didn't heare of any complaints of the excursions, so what ever fits your desires should be chosen.
|Great Stirrup Cay (Cruiseline Private Island), Bahamas
|A great day on the beach. It was a great way to wrap up our cruses
|Cozumel, Mexico
|This island is more developed and a bit more affluent. The merchants on the beach road were too agressive for me, but once you got a block or two from that area, it was a very pleasant visit.

Each day I walk with two of our six miniature dachshunds along the verges of a narrow road with passing places, and for a week or so these verges have been dominated by the blue flowers of harebells. Their shade of blue is difficult to describe. Each blossom is very delicate and nods in the slightest breeze, and while the colour may be likened to the blue sky, they are so paper thin they are almost translucent.
The blue blossoms are the highlight of each walk, especially when the sun is shining brightly and the colours seem even more intense. Then one day last week there was something different. At the top of a bank were some white harebells. I just stood there, looking for so long that the two dachshunds were left wondering what was wrong.
There are two plants with white blossoms only a few inches from each other and, at my last count yesterday, there were five white blossoms on one plant and six on the other. Apart from the colour they are identical to all the other harebells along the roadside. In most of the Highlands the normal blue harebells are considered unlucky and ill-luck will befall anyone who dares to pick them. In the north-east it was regarded with a suspicion and dread to the extent that it was also known as the "aul'man's bell" (devil's bell). For some unknown reason the white harebells were regarded as being lucky and there was no problem with picking them. As to the source of the name, harebell, it could be because they grow in grassy places where hares are found. This is quite possible as both the hare and the harebell are associated with magic and I often see hares in the adjoining fields. The correct name for the harebell in Scotland is the Scottish bluebell, but even after living for more than 30 years in the Highlands I still cannot stop myself calling them harebells.

Train hits car sending four to hospital
Four people are recovering today after police say the driver tried to beat a train, but was hit while crossing the tracks.
It happened at the tracks at 21st Street and Massachusetts Avenue on the near east side. Crews were dispatched to the scene about 1:49 a.m. Sunday.
Indianapolis Fire officials extricated two people from the vehicle.
They say Angelita Love, 41, was traveling south bound over the tracks, when she collided with a train heading southwest.
Both passengers in the backseat got out of the car on their own before rescue crews arrived at the scene. Due to the serious nature of the crash, those passengers, Walter Love Jr., 22, and Cornell Dunn, 44, were also taken to the hospital.
IFD extrication crews had to remove the windshield of the SUV to get both Angelita Love and her husband, Walter, 43, out of the vehicle. Both victims were taken to Methodist Hospital.
All victims are considered to be in serious condition due to the severity of the impact, but none are believed to have life threatening injuries.


text: ROCKVILLE, Md., June 6, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Lockheed Martin has received the highest level Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP) authorization from the FedRAMP Joint Authorization Board to become an approved provider of secure community cloud services to federal, state and local agencies. The company is one of the first large federal contractors to receive this level of authorization. (Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110419/PH85737LOGO-b) FedRAMP is a standardized approach to cloud security assessments, authorization, and monitoring that will save the government money, time, and staff by eliminating redundant agency security assessments. Through FedRAMP's security authorizations, federal agencies can also drastically reduce the time it takes to adopt new IT capabilities while maintaining security compliance. Lockheed Martin received the FedRAMP Joint Authorization Board's provisional authorization -- the most rigorous approval -- which entails a thorough review by chief information officers of the General Services Administration, Department of Homeland Security and Department of Defense. Whereas other authorization levels are reviewed for use by a specific federal agency, the provisional authorization and continuous monitoring by the board is done with a government-wide viewpoint to ensure the highest standards are maintained. "As a leader in cyber security and government cloud computing, Lockheed Martin is deeply involved in shaping cloud security standards across the industry," said Stephanie C. Hill, vice president of Lockheed Martin's Information Systems & Global Solutions-Civil business. "Our secure community cloud offering was built FedRAMP ready and has been serving government agencies and other regulated industry customers since 2012." To receive this authorization, Lockheed Martin documented and fully implemented the FedRAMP security controls on its cloud service offerings. In addition, Coalfire Federal, a division of Coalfire Systems Inc., audited these security controls as an independent FedRAMP-accredited third party assessment organization. A leader in cyber security, Lockheed Martin brings more than 40 years of security certification and accreditation experience across various federal agency programs at all National Institute of Standards and Technology security categories and impact levels. Through Lockheed Martin's proven Solutions as a Service (SolaS®) cloud strategy, the corporation has offered a flexible, mission-focused approach to secure cloud computing since 2009. The SolaS Secure Community Cloud combines best-in-industry partnerships with companies such as VMware, Inc. and EMC Corporation, as well as unprecedented domain expertise and innovative technology to deliver private, community and hybrid offerings for a variety of customers.

PARIS (AFP) -New car sales in Europe rose by nearly six per cent in 2014, ending a long slump in activity that began in 2007, but analysts warn the sector has not yet turned the corner in the region.
The European Automobile Manufacturer's Association (ECEA) said last week that 2014 new car sales grew by 5.7 per cent, but noted current volumes of activity remain significantly lower than they were before the global financial crisis that drove the sector into six years of decline.
Europe's continuing economic sluggishness means carmakers are unlikely to be able to repeat 2014's performance, with analysts expecting sales growth to be limited to 1 to 3 per cent this year.
A recovery to pre-crisis levels is most likely still years away.
Carlos Da Silva, an auto industry expert at IHS consultants, said that "2014 should be taken with relief and satisfaction. However, by any means, this growth should not be misinterpreted: the foundations for a flourishing car market are yet to be built.
"Right now, the patient is still limping, not starting to run on both legs!"
The European car sector's convalescent state is clear in comparing the 12.5 million units sold last year to the 16 million which rolled off dealer's lots in 2007 before Wall Street unleashed a global financial crisis.

Vps Hosting: Shared Hosting On Steroids
This unfortunately, can sometimes happen with websites. While it's every website owner's dream to have a huge and unexpected amount of traffic to their site, it's also their worst nightmare. If too many people come to the site, it could potentially shut the site down simply because there are too many users – especially if you don't have enough RAM. This is where burstable RAM comes into play.
Cloud internet hosting and virtual private servers (VPS) are two distinct forms of hosting that offer a little of the same great advantages that entice more and more businesses each year to make the jump from their current setup to the latest in technological advancement. If you need been wanting to make a change in the way that your small- or medium-sized business does its computing, then you may wish to consider the advantages of cloud internet hosting or virtual server hosting.
In today's modern era its a very easy thing to find and examine different types of plans available for Hosting you website. Every vendor has some pros and cons. So new people get confuse while making selection among such a huge available options in the market. So What is the key? In my opinion if you are running a small or medium size businesses and your websites are targeting a specific group of people (Customers) then you should go for an affordable and little bit reputed VPS Hosting provider. In VPS Hosting there are number of sites which are all sharing a unique and big hard drive. Though this kind of hosting is not efficient for the websites which targets very heavy traffic and they are not targeting specific type of visitors. Mostly the sites suppose to get very heavy traffic (entertainment and video sites ) prefers to go for 'Dedicated Server Hosting'. VPS Hosting is developed keeping in mind small and medium Website owners. In VPS Hosting a large server is divided in to multiple reclusive parts. Despite of sharing a server with other people you still get your own space without any body's interference, and thats the reason why your website's execution will not be induced by the other joint holder of the same server. In short the concept of VPS Hosting is allotting the its own virtual private space to each of the client. Further I will not hesitate to state that people who choose VPS Hosting has same power to do same activities which can be performed by a person who is holder of Dedicated Hosting.
Stability – In VPS hosting you don't should fear about any malicious pursuits and you will be cost-free from hackers. Its privacy and safety ranges are large mainly because you're leasing a VPS (Digital Exclusive Server) straight from your hosting.
When you're getting lots of traffic, need to run custom applications or become concerned about just how secure your cheap hosting account is, it's time to move up to a VPS hosting solution.
