Previous version BMX Boy 1.6 apk for Android will help you to downgrade or install older app easily. This is one of the best Racing apps.
What makes this game so different from car or motorcycle racing is that this bicycle race will be more about agility. The agility of someone in riding and "flying" on the bicycle is really crucial here. Though it is virtual, you really need to think and move quickly. This of course, will help in gaining points. After that, the agility here means the ability to avoid barriers, rocks, bull, birds, cows, and others will be really disturbing you when you have fun with your BMX.
There are two important controls you need to master. The first is about controlling the bike so the speed will be controlled well, steadily, and fast. The second one is about controlling for jumping so that you can avoid any barriers. All you need to do is touch the arrow forward to start pedaling. Then, press the arrow to the top for jump. Jumping while styling enables you to reach a higher distance. You need to master this all because there will be barriers that can make your tricks fail. But again, all these things can be done with your thumb. Find, play, and feel the sensation of cycling in BMX Boy for Android.Features of BMX Boy APK 1.6
- Clear and simple pictures
- 3 different terrains
- 90 cool and addictive levels.
- Various cool tricks.
- More levels are coming soon.

In what may be the AMPTP's biggest misstep in the WGA strike's PR war, the organization did not buy the URL for www.amptp.com.
Owned by the Mission Hills property masters/weapons specialists Tactical Edge Group, the address now directs to a mock AMPTP site. Graphically, it's only a little more sophisticated than the site Stephen Glass created in desperation for Jukt Micronics, but it's still very funny.
The "press release" follows.
AMPTP Boldly Relaunches Bold New Website
LOS ANGELES, December 10, 2007 —
The Association of Motion Picture and Television Producers announced today that the reason it exited negotiations with the Writers Guild of America was to finalize the relaunch of its website, www.AMPTP.com.
"This is a bold new era for our website," said AMPTP president Nick Counter. "These last few weeks, we have negotiated with the WGA during the day and worked with boldness all night on making our website more fun and user-friendly. We have made bold, groundbreaking moves in several areas of web design, including words, pictures, so-called 'hyperlinks,' logos, and also words and pictures."
According to Counter, now that the AMPTP is no longer distracted by trying to make a deal with the WGA, it can redouble its efforts to make its website "a bold source of information and the Internet's number one database for photos of me."
Visit the AMPTP at www.AMPTP.com.

Earlier this month, the United States Mint unveiled the final design selections for the 2014 America the Beautiful Quarters® Program. These five designs are offered as the fifth year of releases for the program and feature reverses emblematic of national parks located in the states of Tennessee, Virginia, Utah, Colorado and Florida
With this design unveiling, images for the 2014 America the Beautiful Silver Bullion Coins™ and the 2014 America the Beautiful Five Ounce Silver Uncirculated Coins™ are also known since they feature the same basic imagery as found on the associated quarter dollars. However, unlike the quarters, coins of the two silver programs are struck from five ounces of .999 fine silver and feature the diameter of three inches. Continue reading

Florence campaigns for a safe road crossing in Four Lanes
By Jeff Muir
Florence MacDonald, local parish councillor is campaigning for a safe crossing on the main road through Four Lanes to help children get safely to school.
There have been several accidents on the main road through Four Lanes in the last year alone. Despite this and the Highways officer visiting Four Lanes, no action has been taken. Apparently, speeding is not considered a problem!
Florence said, " As a teacher myself, I know how difficult drop offs and pick ups can be for parents.
A crossing on the main road would allow local parents to walk their children to school, which would ease traffic congestion at pick up and drop off times on Loscombe Road.
But this is not just about getting children safely to school.
There are many people with mobility issues in the village who struggle to get to the post office and local shop!"
If you have a concern about this and would like to support Florence's campaign, please sign her petition

Real name:
Opening Hours:
Legal counseling is possible only by appointment, in order to reduce waiting time. We will tell you the date and time a week beforehand. In exceptional cases, appointments can be arranged via email. Send a brief description of your case to email@example.com
Because our advisory service is often overburdened, please bring all issues that have nothing to do with higher education law or examination regulations to the attention of our other legal advisory services.
Securing a university place at the TU by making a legal claim
Have you applied for an university place and your application has been declined? Or are you afraid that this might happen? We will hold meetings in March, in which we will explain how to secure a university place by making a legal claim. We provide information and answer questions about the legal procedure and the financial risk involved. We bring the necessary forms and can help you with filling them out.
Student rights
In light of recent events, we encourage students not to put up with bullying by lectures. As a student, you have rights that you should assert. In many cases, a brief glance into the Regulations Governing General Study and Examination Procedures (the 'Allgemeine Studien- und Prüfungsordnung') will tell you if the requirements in a course are legal or not.
You can find a more readable version of most relevant laws and regulations here.
Often students turn to us when they have just missed a deadline, and we are no longer to help them. To avoid this, please show us official decisions, with which you are not content, as soon possible. You can find a list of the most important deadlines here.
The political dimension
We work for a university where studying remains possible for all students, and not only for those who can afford it! However, because of the undemocratic power structure in the university, we can assert only relatively little influence on the laws and regulations governing study and examination procedures. This is due to the constant majority of professors within the university's decision-making structures. Apart from giving individual advice, we campaign for free access to higher education.
If you are planning to secure a place at the TU by making a legal claim (the 'Einklagen'), you do not need a lawyer for it. A first introduction into the topic can be found on the website of the Council of Departments of the Humboldt University.
Topics include (but are not restricted to):
- securing a university place by making a legal claim
- problems with the study and examination regulations
- problems with an examination board
- help with making an appeal or an application for an re-examination ('Gegenvorstellung')
- study counseling without consent (the first step to de-registration)
- de-registration
- detailed medical certificates (the 'Funktionsstörungsatteste')
- attendance lists and compulsory attendance
- encroachment on privacy
- ...
Soon your course of study will cease to exist?
Thousands of students are still enrolled in a Masters or Diploma course in the TU Berlin you are not alone in this! Despite this, the university plans to let these courses peter out, and legally, it is allowed to do so because of § 126 in the Berlin Higher Education Law. The law stipulates that universities set a date when the final exams will be organised for the last time. After this date, the course is considered to be suspended. You might already have heard about these dates; some of them have already passed.
Please contact us if you want more information about the courses of study which are to be suspended!

I'm a renegade trader. I don't follow "the rules" and I do play a lot of "what if" games. I recently was directed to PitView and have just been amazed. Especially with the new 2.0 version. I work a lot with XAUUSD (Gold) and V.2.0 has it now in the "Metals" section. On my first morning with 2.0, I've grabbed over $4K in profit. How? I "Auto-Scaled" it using 1 lot, 4-6 additional orders at 1 pip sep. PitView makes it much easier than taking candy from a baby. I just "follow the leader." It don't get any simpler than that!

"I'm very proud to have been given this task and I promise you I'll do my best to represent your country." Those were Harry Redknapp's first words as he was unveiled as the new coach of Jordan, the well-known English manager underlining his commitment to the cause – despite taking command for a limited time only. His brief, after all, could hardly be more specific, with Redknapp appointed to get results in Jordan's final two group-stage qualifiers for the 2018 FIFA World Cup Russia™.
Although most coaches prefer time to get to know their players and pass on their message, the new man at the helm has opted to forego all that. Instead, his spell will effectively last just three hours, with his remit covering the match against Bangladesh on 24 March and the trip to Sydney to take on Australia five days later. "I've been working in football for a lot of years and I know this job won't be easy," Redknapp told FIFA.com. "I have very little time, but I'm used to accepting any challenge. I've only come here for two matches, but who knows what the future will hold? Let's take it step by step."
Building a rapport
The former Tottenham Hotspur manager will have to juggle his Jordan duties with his advisory role at Derby County. He travelled to Amman fresh from watching the second-tier English outfit beat Nottingham Forest, and the following day he slipped on his tracksuit for his first training session in his new job, where he held discussions with the players and looked to build a quick rapport. Watching with his assistants as the players were then put through their paces, Redknapp was quick to pause the action when necessary, bounding on to the pitch several times to hand out instructions.
"I didn't have a full grasp of the standard of the Jordanian players but, after the first session and talks with the coaching staff, I feel that they have great potential," he said. "I saw the effort they put in and I know they've been giving their best for several days. I was able to sleep well because I'm convinced this is a good squad which can get the results we want in the next two games."
The feeling appeared to be mutual. Judging by the expressions on the faces of the Jordan players, they too were pleased with their first encounter – and could not wait to work more with their well-respected coach. Redknapp's compliments during that inaugural training session clearly went down well too.
No magic wand
He joins a side that has become used to instability. In fact, Redknapp is the third coach to have held the Jordan reins since World Cup qualifying began, with Jordanian tactician Ahmed Abdel-Qader and Belgium's Paul Put having both gone before him.
As a result, supporters are keen to know what the current incumbent can offer in such a short space of time. "I don't have a magic wand, but in football hard work and application are the keys to success," he said. "Keeping on the coaching staff who provided us with all the necessary information on the players will help us in our task because we'll consult with them before making decisions. I had a chance to meet most of the players and the first game against Bangladesh will be the perfect time to field the best possible team to take on Australia.
"I'm not saying we'll play the first game without respecting our opponents, as if victory was guaranteed. On the contrary, I've told the players to focus on getting the three points. In football, you can't take any opponent lightly or you'll run into serious problems. We'll just be taking things step by step."
'Faith in ourselves'
After tackling Bangladesh, Jordan face a 20-hour flight south to Sydney, where they face a monumental test. Redknapp and Co can settle for nothing short of victory against the Asian champions if they hope to reach the final qualifying round and match their achievement on the road to Brazil 2014, when they contested an intercontinental play-off against Uruguay.
The visitors will have to contend with a passionate Australian crowd as they take to the field, but they need not fear their rivals. Instead, they would do well to imagine that they are the home side. After all, they saw off the Socceroos 2-0 on Jordanian soil earlier in the campaign, and downed the same side 2-1 at home during the previous qualifying effort.
They also lost 4-0 in Australia in that World Cup bid, and Redknapp has no illusions about the scale of the challenge ahead. "We know our task is difficult, but we have to have faith in ourselves. We need to go there with a positive mindset or there's no point even making the trip.
"It's a huge challenge for us," he added. "The Australian team are strong at home and they won the last Asian Cup. I know some of their players because they play in the Premier League. I'm going to watch all their previous games in detail and obviously their next match against Tajikistan as well. We'll put our finger on their strong and weak points and then choose our team with that in mind."
Whatever happens, Redknapp is certain to relish the occasion. "In life, you have to give everything to avoid having regrets. I can't wait for us to face this challenge together."

But separating fact from fiction is a real chore with this complex naturalistic approach to health, so today Blender Babes is delving into an in-depth analysis of ketosis, as well as explaining in thorough, yet simple detail exactly what a ketogenic diet really looks, feels, smells and tastes like! And more importantly, we'll touch on the key aspects of why you might want to … [Read more...]

Gareth Bale has spoken of his praise for Harry and the Tottenham team for last seasons efforts. Bale said he couldn't wait for the new season to start when Tottenham face Manchester City who will be hungry for revenge.
Bale, 20, said: "That defeat against Portsmouth hurt so much and we were obviously down after it.
"But we used it to give ourselves a kick up the backside. The manager made us realise we couldn't let it affect us in a negative way.
"Rather than mope and feel sorry for ourselves, we used it in a positive way and managed to get to fourth in the table – which was unbelievable for the club and the fans."
"Champions League football is what you have to aim for at a club like this.
"But that doesn't mean we can sit back and reflect on the achievement.
"Now we must take our football to the next level and that is the task ahead for us in the new season.
"I can't wait – and obviously Manchester City at home in our first game is a great fixture given the tussle we had with them last season for fourth."
Boom Boom Boom let me hear you say Bale……
You've got to admire Gaeth Bale for his amazing end to last season, it's a scary thought but if you think about it logically, it wasn't down to Harry seeing the boy had potential it was just fate that BAE got injured so Bale got his chance, if that hadn't happend then Bale would probably have been sold this summer, scary thought hey?
From one player to the next, Roman Pavlyuchenko's agent has claimed the 28 year old striker will be staying at Spurs, at least for now. His agent Oleg Artemov said "Tottenham chairman Daniel Levy is not going to let Roman leave, he is necessary for Harry Redknapp.With Tottenham about to make their debut in the Champions League it would seem Redknapp wants as many options up front as possible and Pavlyuchenko does not want to miss the opportunity.
"Roman himself does not want to leave England but, if that does happen, he will return to a Russian club.
"We have noted information appeared regarding the possible departure of the striker. Among contenders were Sporting Lisbon and Spartak Moscow.
"But I did not see any movement from Spartak – there were no specifics.
"Interest from both Zenit and Lokomotiv, as was reported in Britain, was nothing."
Again this in my view is good news, I think Pav has done enough to prove he is worth holding onto for another season, he scored a good brace agaisnt Bournemouth in a friendly and with Robbie Keane destined to leave is it really wise to sell Pav too?
Nice bit of positive news this fine Sunday morning, Bale is happy, Pav might be staying, so guess what? I am happy just like Bale.
5 Responses to "Bale Praises Harry + Pav To Stay"
a fantastic day
So great that we kept Pav after all the interest in him from Barcelona and Real Madrid and Man Utd and Stoke City.
How long do we have to wait for Keane to go?Make it soon please.
I would like to exchange links with your site triffictottenham.co.uk
Is this possible?

Solution structure of the Josephin domain of Ataxin-3
Structural highlights
[ATX3_HUMAN] Defects in ATXN3 are the cause of spinocerebellar ataxia type 3 (SCA3) [MIM:109150]; also known as Machado-Joseph disease (MJD). Spinocerebellar ataxia is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous group of cerebellar disorders. Patients show progressive incoordination of gait and often poor coordination of hands, speech and eye movements, due to degeneration of the cerebellum with variable involvement of the brainstem and spinal cord. SCA3 belongs to the autosomal dominant cerebellar ataxias type I (ADCA I) which are characterized by cerebellar ataxia in combination with additional clinical features like optic atrophy, ophthalmoplegia, bulbar and extrapyramidal signs, peripheral neuropathy and dementia. The molecular defect in SCA3 is the a CAG repeat expansion in ATXN3 coding region. Longer expansions result in earlier onset and more severe clinical manifestations of the disease.[1]
[ATX3_HUMAN] Deubiquitinating enzyme involved in protein homeostasis maintenance, transcription, cytoskeleton regulation, myogenesis and degradation of misfolded chaperone substrates. Binds long polyubiquitin chains and trims them, while it has weak or no activity against chains of 4 or less ubiquitins. Involved in degradation of misfolded chaperone substrates via its interaction with STUB1/CHIP: recruited to monoubiquitinated STUB1/CHIP, and restricts the length of ubiquitin chain attached to STUB1/CHIP substrates and preventing further chain extension. In response to misfolded substrate ubiquitination, mediates deubiquitination of monoubiquitinated STUB1/CHIP. Interacts with key regulators of transcription and represses transcription: acts as a histone-binding protein that regulates transcription.[2] [3] [4]

Publication Abstract from PubMed
The Josephin domain plays an important role in the cellular functions of ataxin-3, the protein responsible for the neurodegenerative Machado-Joseph disease. We have determined the solution structure of Josephin and shown that it belongs to the family of papain-like cysteine proteases, sharing the highest degree of structural similarity with bacterial staphopain. A currently unique structural feature of Josephin is a flexible helical hairpin formed by a 32-residue insertion, which could determine substrate specificity. By using the Josephin structure and the availability of NMR chemical shift assignments, we have mapped the enzyme active site by using the typical cysteine protease inhibitors, transepoxysuccinyl-L-eucylamido-4-guanidino-butane (E-64) and [L-3-trans-(propylcarbamyl)oxirane-2-carbonyl]-L-isoleucyl-L-proline (CA-074). We also demonstrate that the specific interaction of Josephin with the ubiquitin-like domain of the ubiquitin- and proteasome-binding factor HHR23B involves complementary exposed hydrophobic surfaces. The structural similarity with other deubiquitinating enzymes suggests a model for the proteolytic enzymatic activity of ataxin-3.

I Don't Think So
Monday, October 25, 2010
While I was blow drying my hair this morning that show kept replaying in my mind. We've lived in our home for 12 years and have never locked the front door except at night. It's unlocked all day, whether we're home or not.
My kids were all at school or work, my husband was gone and I was home alone. I heard a noise at the closed, but not locked, bedroom door. My heart stopped. I knew that was it. I was about to die.
I turned off the dryer, put on my robe (I wasn't going to be killed totally naked), grabbed my gun and slowly opened the door.
There was a crouched black figure there. I screamed and aimed. I almost shot my standard poodle. She was at the door tapping to get in. I caught my breath, grabbed her by the collar and went to lock the front door.
I went back to the room with my dogs and my gun. I locked the bedroom door. Then I took my dogs and my gun into the bathroom and locked that door.
With my vicious yorkie and my scary poodle at my feet and my .38 on the bathroom counter I finished getting ready for the day.
And my brother wants me to watch Shutter Island? I don't think so.

- What's Included
The latest Insteon plug-in module, I/O Linc, lets you monitor and control any low voltage devices such as alarm sensors, electric door strikes, and contact closures as part of your Insteon home automation network. With one dry-contact sensor input you can control many Insteon devices throughout the house. Plus, use the built-in single-pole double-throw (SPDT) switch, connect any low voltage-powered device for continuous or momentary operation. Create your own remote-control door lock using an electric door strike and power supply or use a security sensor turn Insteon controlled lights on or off.
Required Accessories
Sensor wire: 16 - 28 gauge wire fits, but 20 - 22 gauge recommended
I/O Linc Kits Available:
I/O Linc's flexible output relay can control many different types of low voltage devices, from pool valves to electric door strikes to garage doors due to its different relay modes. When controlling devices like pool valves, you will want the ability to leave it on for an extended period of time, giving it plenty of time to fill the pool. As it approaches the desired water level, then you can remotely turn it off. For devices like electric door strikes, set I/O Linc's output relay to momentary, allowing you open the front gate using a RemoteLinc or any other Insteon controller. A third version of I/O Linc's momentary mode allows you to remotely press your garage door button with an Insteon On command, but only if your garage is currently closed. This allows you to open your garage with On command and close it with an Off command. Because I/O Linc uses a garage door sensor to know whether the door is open or closed, it only controls the garage when it needs to.
Controlling Two Separate Loads
With the addition of a DPDT Relay Board, the I/O Linc is capable of switching two separate loads on and off together. In this configuration, the I/O Linc could control two different loads of varying voltages (i.e. one high voltage and one low voltage load) or two higher current loads (up to 7A @30VDC each).

- Works, but only for a few years. Review by TechGuy
Works, but only for a few years.
Using IO-Linc to automate a ToggleLinc based on input from a magnetic reed switch mounted to projector screen. It turns the light off when screen drops, and back on when screen is retracted all the way. The ToggleLinc continues working well, but I wish the IO-Linc would be as reliable. Every couple years I am having to replace the IO-Linc.

- Another Update Review by OldSurferDude
Another Update
The intermittent communication came back. What really fixed the problem was a 2992-222 Range extender (another $40). I have 30 some power line only and Dual-band devices. It surprises me that I don't have at least one Dual-Band on each phase.
I tried the 2443 access point and it didn't work in my application, bridging from an existing Dual-band device.

- Updated review Review by OldSurferDude
Updated review
In my previous review (which never showed up here), I gave it one star because it started operating intermittently. I would receive a command but not send the status of the sensor or respond to queries. (heat related?)
In that state, it was useless to me. Before buying a new one, which I loathed to do, I decided to take it apart. I hoped to find one of two fixable problems: a blown capacitor or contamination.
I suspected the former because in other forums, this was the fix. The latter because it seemed to be a transmission problem and not a reception problem.
It was the latter, easily fixed by scraping the orange/clear splotch on the PCB. I also suspected poor solder joints and carefully looked at all of them (in another life I was an electronics manufacturing engineer) as this could cause signal problems. I was delightfully surprised that the manufacturing was quite good. (thus the three stars).
I didn't give it more stars because, to me, it is obvious that the management does not spend enough on R&D. Smarthome was clearly the leader in the field of home automation but totally dropped the ball with underfunded projects like The Hub. Universal Devices' ISY994 is what The Hub should have been. Smarthome is doomed if does not fully fund the many obvious project that it could do. For example, this I/O device could easily be 8 bits wide at very little additional cost. Reliability is not adequately tested, either.

- Intermittent when the temperature gets warm Review by OldSurferDude
Intermittent when the temperature gets warm
It's been pretty pretty warm here in Southern California for the past month. My garage door faces west and it gets quite warm in the garage when the door is closed ... where the sensor is. At some point, the device only worked intermittently. That is, would receive commands to change the state of the relay, but would not send the status of the sensor. Eventually I reset it to factory defaults and reprogrammed it. I will be looking for a replacement.

- Love the function, but it's not perfect Review by Viper
Love the function, but it's not perfect
I just bought an IOLinc to replace an IOLinc that went bad. The one that went bad would report it's status, but wouldn't control the relay, then it started strobing (flashing on and off constantly) and no longer reported status. So, reliability...I'm not sure. I also noticed that the IOLinc is only good down to 32 degrees, but it is sold as a garage door solution (where I use mine). My garage is detached and gets down to -40 degrees. A definite mismatch between marketed solution and technical specifications.

- Garage door sensor. Review by Otis
Garage door sensor.
The relay works, but the one thing mos important to me does not. This is likely a software issue. When I open my Insteon app, the app does not show if the door is open or closed. If you open the door, while using the app, it displays correctly, but, if you check the app minutes later... no display of the sensor status shows... rendering the device/app all but useless as a garage door monitor. FIX THIS!

- Using for Portable Thermostat Support Review by Lou
Using for Portable Thermostat Support
Paired this with a 2441ZTH Portable Insteon Thermostat to control my first floor zone. Wiring was easy enough, but it is a bit tricky to get the state of the Normally Open/Normally Closed pins working as expected. Despite the naming of the pins, you can actually make them behave either way, though they will be complements of each other. Just read the user guide section on "Linking an INSTEON Controller to Control the I/O Linc Output Relay". Basically put the relay in the state you want it when an "ON" command is received (e.g. with the relay closed, using the N/O pins) before linking. Working flawlessly so far.

Sen. Pat Toomey is one of the great accomplishments of the Tea Party Movement, and after supporting him in '04 back when Bush was backing Specter, it does my heart good to see him in our dysfunctional deliberate body. For that same reason, some are very angry at him for his vote on the fiscal cliff deal. But as we go into another debt-ceiling fight, he's one of our better communicators on this issue. So, it also does my heart good to see him go on "Morning Joe," up against five people who disagree with him, and direct the conversation, over and over, away from the fig leaf of revenue and back to the real issue of entitlements and $16 trillion in debt.
There are some, like Ben Domenech, who think the debt ceiling deal will look much like this one— a short-term get-out-of-jail solution that again doesn't address our real problems because no one really wants to address them. There are some, like Jim Pethokoukis, who think it'll end in another tax hike.
If it's ever going to look any different, with the GOP demanding what's best for the country— "getting us off the path to Greece," as Toomey puts it by addressing entitlement reform and maybe tax reform—it's going to take people like Toomey to explain that, on TV, every single day. Many Americans simply don't understand the gravity of the debt problem. Democrats and some Republicans are more than happy to feed this misunderstanding by pretending these deals make some kind of progress because it helps them avoid stickier budget wickets.
Toomey's Wednesday appearance is getting a lot of press because he said the GOP should be willing to risk a temporary government shut-down to get cuts, but that's just the beginning of what he said. He challenges the panel on the notion that credit downgrades come from these skirmishes and short-term deals or whether they really come from such deals making clear the U.S. is unwilling to tackle its larger problems. He challenged them on whether a temporary shutdown would cause more pain and disruption than allowing the debt problem to fester until it calls for more drastic measures. He informed them that one of the reasons we're in these cliff situations is because Democratic senators haven't passed a budget in three years. All of that should be part of the conversation, but it won't be unless Republicans like Toomey make it part of the conversation.

Pollution-fighting plants
Scientists at the University of Washington are engineering poplar trees that can clean up contamination sites by absorbing groundwater pollutants through their roots. The plants then break the pollutants down into harmless byproducts that are incorporated into their roots, stems and leaves or released into the air.
In laboratory tests, the transgenic plants are able to remove as much as 91 percent of trichloroethylene — the most common groundwater contaminant at U.S. Superfund sites — out of a liquid solution. Regular poplar plants removed just 3 percent of the contaminant.

Getting started early and working with skilled consultants helped get a new Amazon.com Fulfillment Center open in less than 14 months
A high-profile tenant with the potential of bringing 2,500+ jobs is interested in a facility somewhere in your county. The catch? Their new, very large facility must be designed, permitted, and built within 14 months, an extremely fast-track schedule. If this schedule can't be met, the deal is off, and the tenant will go elsewhere. How do you make this work so the company and those jobs come to your county? These five tips can help.
- Complete Your Baseline Work Early. Early completion of baseline work (including geotechnical, traffic, survey, wetland, and cultural resource investigation) is essential to "jump start" the design process. As one of our land survey veterans puts it, "Release the survey early, as a part of the due diligence process, or immediately thereafter. The engineer's hands are tied until the survey work is complete." Any concerns about financial exposure in releasing that information needs to be considered in context with the overall risk management program for the project since these costs typically represent less than one percent of the total construction cost.
- Go with a One Size (Almost) Fits All Approach. Projects with established prototype building designs lend themselves very well to fast-track development. The prototype design can be adapted to the site early in the process, allowing everything else to be accelerated. One of our clients was able to use a prototype design – while completing the zoning ahead of time – to cut nine months off the schedule and attract a significant occupant in 240,000 square feet of space.
- Know Your Partners and Communicate! Strategic and established relationships with local, state, and federal agencies are critical to any successful project. Most owners/developers rely particularly on their civil engineers to push a project along due to their understanding of local conditions and requirements. A good rule of thumb is to have your engineer solicit initial input from the regulatory authorities via informal reviews, before formal submittals. This can be mutually beneficial, and gives the team a feel for potential issues, scheduling objectives, and anticipated requirements. Also, holding regular and frequent meetings makes important dialog and decision-making easy.
- Embrace – and Manage – Change. Although not ideal, a fast-track situation typically requires "locking in" a footprint and site plan very early, knowing or expecting there will be changes. The key is to manage the change process and not get caught off-guard when the architect moves a door, adds a service bay, or reconfigures a parking lot. It's typical to have different versions of a site plan, particularly in the early phases. The civil engineer should submit these plans early to get the site permitting process started, acknowledging that further refinements will occur and must be documented. Even with the best intentions, not all revisions will be accomplished in the design process; expect them to continue into the construction phase. Changes will happen, but stay on top of them and manage the process!
- Make Decisions in Real Time. Establish a streamlined decision-making process and make sure you are focused on making timely project decisions. Hillsborough County, Florida, has established fast-tracking procedures for economic development projects, a very proactive and effective approach to project management. These methods ensure that County staff expedite reviews and enhance their communication of all site-related approvals.
Back to our opening scenario. This fast-track requirement was the case in Tampa Bay, and the project team made it work, following the tips above. The owner chose a consultant firm that they trusted and, working with the appropriate agencies, cut the design and permitting time in half. The design documents were high quality because the designers already had the benefit of client direction and agency input, well before plan submittal deadlines.
In the end, Tampa Bay is the proud home of the new Amazon.com Fulfillment Center in Ruskin. The 1.1-million-sf facility opened last month after a tight, 13.5-month project schedule. The team's ability to work together to secure this tenant will bring over 2,500 jobs to the local economy, a boost that could have been missed if the fast-track challenge wasn't embraced.

"It doesn't get much better than LYBCC. It is a perfect location for camps, conferences, and retreats for any ministry. It has been the host of our Amp
Week Student Camp for the past 3 years and the staff and the facility go above and beyond every year. If you are looking for a beautiful Florida location,
great facility, great food, and a wonderful staff then try Lake Yale. God had blessed this campus and blessed our group every time we visit."
Todd Hickox
Westside Baptist Church, Jacksonville
"Lake Yale Baptist Conference Center is the perfect place for our yearly School Transportation workshop. The staff is very helpful and congenial. We could
not have our conference, with the budget restraints on state government, if it were not for the group at the camp. We have been the last eleven years and
enjoyed every moment. The staff makes the event an enjoyable one. We use all the facilities except the swimming pool and every person at the assembly makes
us want to return each year."
Kay Kanupp
Department of Education-School Transportation
"The Florida Woodturning Symposium enjoys working with the Lake Yale staff. This is our 11th annual symposium. All of them have been at Lake Yale. Our
attendees all seem to enjoy themselves and many return each year. The location is great and the mornings with the sun rising over the lake is very peaceful.
Thank you to the Lake Yale staff for helping to make our Symposium a success each year."
Frank Sospenzi
Florida Woodturning Symposium
"My scrapbooking group loves to come to Lake Yale for our bi-annual retreat. The workspace is perfect for our needs and the staff is very helpful while
we are there. They are very accommodating with our special requests while we are there. The office staff is very helpful and patient during the planning
of my scrapbooking retreat and only a phone call away if I have any questions or concerns. It is a pleasure to walk the grounds to and from our motel
rooms and stroll by the lake when we need to get out and stretch our legs. If you are an early riser, you must see the sunrises above the lake, they are
beautiful. My group looks forward to our stay at Lake Yale every time we attend."
Sherrie Geick
Creative Memories
"We are looking forward to our visit the end of this month. This will be my ninth stay at Lake Yale and I believe the eighth for our sewing group. Because
of the excellent facilities offered at Lake Yale Baptist Conference Center, our Board has approved your site for our 2013 FSS Sewing Retreat and Expo.
Please let the staff know that all of their hard efforts in setting up for our conference, the wonderful service in the cafeteria and the fact that they
don't have to travel to attend the classes were a few of the points considered when making the selection. Your personal attention to our needs and that of
the administrative and housekeeping staff make our job easy. If it weren't for the affordable accommodations and access to the wonderful classrooms with
ample electrical for all of our sewing machines, many of our members could not afford the experience."
Jan Squires
American Sewing Guild
"(Lake Yale staff) was so cooperative and did everything to make our retreat a such a great success. The staff was also helpful in making the room just as
we asked…and the food was delicious! We look forward to next year."
Dee Burns, Mary Ann Caggiano and Beth Dombek
Lake Miona Quilters
"We enjoyed Lake Yale so much this past weekend! It has a warm place in my heart and I always enjoy going back there! The rooms were very nice and
comfortable, and all the little extras were so nice. The food was amazing! Wow, the bread was the talk of the weekend from Friday night, everyone
said it was like their dessert, scrumptious!...Everything was wonderful from the coffee, conference rooms and hotel room, superb!

If you or someone you love was injured in an accident while riding a conversion van, you should speak with an experienced auto products liability law firm immediately. Unfortunately, some of these full-size cargo vans that have been fitted with "luxury" amenities for camping and road trips may have sacrificed safety for utility and accessory. If this is the case, you may have reason to file a conversion van accident lawsuit against the manufacturer.
Conversion Vans
While these passenger vans were likely made by a large automaker, a van conversion company probably overhauled their interiors. "Upgrades" might include raised roofs, captain chairs, sofa chairs, kitchens, fold-out beds, TVs, and/or bathrooms.
What many consumers don't realize is that many conversion companies are not experienced auto manufacturers. (Even if you bought your car at the dealer, it was still likely a third party van conversion operation that renovate it). To make room for these additional amenities, conversion van companies may even take out some of the most basic safety features in the vehicles, which can allow vehicle occupants to suffer serious injuries during a collision.
Examples of safety defects and design flaws found in conversion vans:
- Seats that are prone to come off the car during a crash
- Seat belts that can easily rip apart
- Weak roofs that lack the structure, strength, and support found in regular vehicles
- Raised roofs that come right off the van or shatter during a collision
- Enlarged "picture windows" that are prone to break during an accident
Unfortunately, many van conversion companies lack the experience, resources, technology, and knowledge to properly engineer and test their vehicles.

Kateri, or Catherine, Tekakwitha, known as "the Lily of the Mohawks," was born in 1656 at Ossernenon (modern-day Auriesville), New York (or, according to some authorities, the village of Gandaouge which lay on the south bank of the Mohawk River) and died on April 17, 1680 at Caughnawaga (Kanahwake or Sault St. Louis), an Indian reservation in what is now Quebec, Canada. Her mother was a Christian Algonquin; her father a Mohawk. When she was only four years old, her family fell victim to an outbreak of smallpox; her father, mother, and brother died of the disease and she was left scarred and partially blinded. Tekakwitha was adopted by her uncle, a chief of the Turtle Clan.
Tekakwitha had her first contact with Jesuit missionaries in 1667. Her uncle was opposed to religious conversion, however, and she was not baptized until 1676, a year after she met Fr. Jacques de Lamberville. She was baptized on Easter Sunday, April 18, and took the name "Catherine." She must have been very devout, as Jesuit policy at the time was not to baptize natives unless there was no danger of back-sliding. After her baptism, Catherine did not remain in her village long, as she was accused of sorcery and sins of impurity. At Fr. de Lamberville's suggestion, she left for the Christian village of Kanahwake (Sault St. Louis), where she spent the remainder of her short life.
At Kanahwake, Catherine and other native converts practiced corporal mortification to repent for their sins and those of their nation. The Jesuit missionaries had difficulty in regulating the pious women's mortifications! And even here, there was pressure for Catherine to be married. Fr. Pierre Cholenec, whose advice she sought on the matter, records her as stating: "I have deliberated enough. For a long time my decision on what I will do has been made. I have consecrated myself entirely to Jesus, son of Mary, I have chosen Him for husband and He alone will take me for wife." Catherine made a vow of perpetual virginity on the Feast of the Annunciation (March 25), 1679. Her health, always poor, was made worse by the mortifications she practiced (but which she refused to give up), and she died in 1680. After her death, the scars which had so disfigured her face miraculously disappeared.
Kateri Tekakwitha was beatified on June 22, 1980 by Pope John Paul II. She is scheduled to be canonized on October 21, 2012. Her feast day is celebrated on July 14 (United States) or April 17, the date of her death (Canada).

After a lot of thought and fully knowing that I will be swearing many times during the course I made the decision and in a few months I will have my first mountaineering holiday. After seeing photos from my boyfriend's previous trips and watching a few videos on YouTube I'm now very excited.
I still think that this is damn difficult but I also know that a few years ago I would never have thought about doing something like this! So yes I'm excited about it.

It's all backwards. It has been the problem since the first century church was grabbed by the tail and "want" set in. No, it wasn't the Catholics and it wasn't indulgences and it still is not the main problem. The disease and erosion of the mind and the heart have been with the human race long before Christianity. It was a faulty business model,paired with lack of accountability and a pressure of performance multiplied by ego and there you have it. What came first, the business or the ministry?
Business Plans and Capital ideas
At the Ministry of Leadership and Communications the group of journalists, pastors, musicians and producers; artists; lawyers and entrepreneurs, have cracked the right question, throwing out all brainstorm ideas and dismissing many of them as nonsense (which coincidentally began with the brainstorm idea: "There are no bad ideas in a brainstorm.") Many of the men and women lead a group of young missionaries in the inner city of Denver and came to the right idea without conclusion: 'What would cause us to breakthrough the business of ministry model that most churches and organizations fall into?" the relative thinkers concluded that there were many great ideas and models and would approach it that "it all depends on what your definition of truth is." That is actually pretty healthy because the right wing, Christian group decided that by "defining truth an practicing stewardship was the best way to approach the model." Still there were the "fence riders" who said "both ways are right and no way is wrong, let them do whatever!"
The Business of Ministry
So they broke into two groups and 'had it their way' and took an inner city neighborhood with 77 percent unemployment, the medium price for a house slightly under $40,000 and marriage and family life is breaking down, but the divorce rate is low, because most people can't afford the legality. Only 35 of the men and women attend the church in the neighborhood. The group that took the "business of ministry approach" decided that a labor pool would be the best way for the unemployed to crawl out of their situations while still collecting some unemployment and food stamps. The other group went on a different road. The mission statement states that "The Business of Ministry is designed to provide a family assistance and one or both parents, short term jobs."
The Ministry of Business
The strategy of group 2 was to write a ministry of business plan that trained, challenged, and changed the scope of the community by helping men and women start, support and sustain new industries and companies housed in the neighborhood. They decided to do a study on a neighborhood sustainable farm, food bank and grocery store. They also proposed a renovation of the old elementary school building that would be used as a media and arts center. The men and women also agreed on applying for grants to build and renovate a two acre piece of land that was used for Denver Public School's bus barn. The idea is to build and rehab the place into an Inner-City Mission Training Center and Library with a college; a coffee house; and a media center that would train; equip and men and women to study; build community and relationships and reach out to others by continually making the neighborhoods better.
A Tale of two plans
The free enterprise system is designed to be the model that is the ministry of business as opposed to the business of ministry. This is the breakthrough and each community can solve the problem by looking at the model that way. When you look at the business of ministry from a numbers game, the numbers can be crunched in such a way that it leaves a lot of room for greed to seep through. The bottom line is the thing and it creates an environment of competitive dishonesty and half truth. Some make money; yet the community remains a struggle and theft and mistrust is the norm.
Ministry first and everyone profits
When you simply come at it from a ministry first; business next model; it allows for accountability and is built on The Solid Rock. The Ministry of Business is taking the men and women of the community and living life together; caring for people and watching people's backs. It is taking a Biblical approach and living a systematic life, that is powered by the Holy Spirit and is evangelical in nature. When ministry considerations are first and people are empowered to minister to others, everyone wins. Ministry first and everyone profits. This is the only way that when a pastor mentors and equips a young man or couple; gets them on their feet, they won't leave the neighborhood since they are invested in the success of others and the success of the community. For more please e-mail email@example.com.
A new digital book and curriculum are both being developed by Five Points Media Group. The new book is a workshop and workbook called "The Ministry of Business and the Business of Ministry – A Guide in Building Community one Neighborhood at a time."

DWTS Season 11 – Changes, As Per Usual
I saw this article a few days ago, but work has been such a nightmare that I've not had as much time to post random bits I find. Then I nearly forgot about it!! But then we were just discussing in the comments how every single season the producers feel this inexplicable need to tinker. Tinker, tinker, tinker. Pretty sure this comes from a press release, but The Examiner doesn't provide a link – for that reason, take it with a tiny grain of salt…or hope it's not true?? I dunno, some of these might be interesting. And at least by putting them out there NOW, no one can cry that their favorite is being conspired against. 🙂 From The Examiner:
Other than its new cast of diverse celebrities, ABC has announced even more changes for the new season of Dancing With the Stars. "We're trying to make the show more like a real ballroom dance competition," says executive producer Conrad Green. So, how does ABC plan on shaking up a show that scored monster ratings last season? Here's a look at what's new for season eleven of Dancing With the Stars:
• Rock Night: This new themed night will feature classic rock and roll. All of the teams will dance to the tunes of classic rockers, like The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, The Eagles, Elvis Pressley, Queen, Chicago and others.
• A Striped-down Acoustic Night: The audience will be seated on the dance floor to make it a more intimate setting.
• Instant Choreography Challenge: The couples will practice their assigned style of dance all week, but they won't get their music until 20 minutes before they have to go out and perform.
I think we all know where the "Acoustic Night" came from – I certainly hope they are compensating Derek and Chelsie appropriately. 🙂 I'm all for it – I think their Paso was very powerful for it's stripped down feel. But can everyone pull it off??
Classic Rock?? No big deal. Now, the Choreography Challenge could either be interesting or a disaster. Some pros seem to ignore the music anyway, but others are very musical. It could negatively impact them.
ETA: Carrie Ann confirms the changes and adds an additional one (which I hate) on The Insider (Video on the site – Thanks to Jennifer):
In addition, Carrie Ann, Len Goodman and Bruno Tonioli will be joined by a fourth judge this season when some of the favorite contestants from the past will join the judging panel. No one is confirmed yet, but the "DWTS" judge says she would like to see Drew Lachey, Emmitt Smith and Jerry Springer, among others, return.
What do you all think??

The evolution of a legendary near-field monitor.
More than 30 glowing reviews, numerous awards, and countless dedicated fans made the A7, the predecessor of this new model, a true legend in near-field monitoring. Now, the legend continues with the A7X: All drivers, all amplifiers, as well as the cabinet have been revised, resulting in a speaker that claims nothing less but to be a new benchmark in near-field monitoring.
Driver technology
The first aspect that distinguishes the old from the new model is the X-ART tweeter. The ˜X™ stands for ˜eXtended frequency response™ and thus for one of the features of the Accelerating Ribbon Technology that has been drastically improved: the frequency response. It now extends all the way up to 50kHz. In addition, the X-ART tweeter has a higher efficiency and higher maximum sound pressure levels.
The perfect integration with the lower frequencies has been achieved with a newly designed 7 midwoofer. It has been redesigned with a much bigger voice coil (1.5) and is driven by an amplifier with twice the power compared to its predecessor. This combination produces an amazing sound and pressure levels with an almost distortion-free musical reproduction.
Amplifiers / controls
Each driver has its own dedicated amplifier. A 50W A/B amp is responsible for the X-ART tweeter, while the midwoofer is being driven by a 100W PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) amp. The front panel includes a power switch and a control for the volume that retains the volume setting independently from the on/off switch.
On the rear panel of the A7X are several additional controls: a gain for the high frequencies (± 4dB) and two shelf filters for high and low frequencies. To ensure greater compatibility, there are both XLR (balanced) and RCA (unbalanced) connectors.
X-ART Technology
The X-ART (eXtended Accelerating Ribbon Technology) tweeters and midranges incorporate a new approach to the Air Motion Transformer concept originally developed by Dr. Oskar Heil. ADAM Audio has improved upon this splendid idea utilizing superior geometries and materials to achieve unprecedented audio fidelity. X-ART strikes a new path concerning the kinematics of moving air, resulting in a dramatic improvement in the quality of audio reproduction.
The X-ART membrane consists of a pleated diaphragm in which the folds compress or expand according to the audio signal applied to them. The result is that air is drawn in and squeezed out, like the bellows of an accordion.
The ADAM X-ART design overcomes the piston-like motion of all conventional drivers and their inevitable problems by achieving an improvement in air loading by a factor of 4 over conventional transducers. To illustrate the basic principle by a comparison: When you breathe, your thorax is moving slowly whereas the air is moving comparably fast. Similarly, the X-ART diaphragm presses the air faster in or out of its folds than they themselves are moving. This markedly superior motor is responsible for the unprecedented clarity and pristine transient reproduction that can be heard with the ADAM X-ART drive units.
In addition, the X-ART tweeter' pleated membrane avoids the typical breakup/distortion and subsequent dynamic limiting at higher frequencies of stiffer voice coil designs, such as those found in dome and cone tweeters. Another positive result of the X-ART design is that the driving stripes are in direct contact with the outer air and are cooled immediately.
Pulse Width Modulation
PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) " sometimes referred to as Class D amplification, sometimes called Switching Amp Technology " converts the incoming signal to a series of rectangular waveforms of equal height. The width of the rectangles varies in time and the relation of the width of the rectangles represents the musical signal. This waveform can be amplified much more simply, as the transistors are not modulated anymore; instead they are used as switches that only turn the power supply voltage on and off.
It is possible that a very fast mechanical switch could do the job, but power transistors are a better choice for the task, so PWM amplifiers still work pretty much like conventional Class AB designs. It is important to note there are no bits and bytes involved, so œDigital Amplifier is a misleading and inaccurate term.
The main advantage of PWM amplifiers is their extremely high efficiency (>90%). As a consequence the heat to be dissipated is only one fifth of earlier designs, leading to much lower temperatures within the amps and making the use of heat sinks obsolete.
This principle has been known for decades, but time was needed to develop units that perform at the leading edge in sonic reproduction quality and yet still maintain the high efficiency mentioned previously. The ADAM units use the new technology for both the amp and the power supply section (i.e. no more transformers) combined with state of the art input and filter sections to achieve the best in multi-channel active studio monitoring.

"The Baking of Adam" by London-based Michelle Wibowo of Michelle Sugar Art
On exhibit at London's St. Pancras Church
On exhibit at London's St. Pancras Church
Michelle Wibowo has re-created Michelangelo's "The Creation of Adam" fresco using ten thousand marshmallows and approximately half a billion cake sprinkles. The arrangement took over 168 hours to complete, and the final product measures 18.7 feet in width and 9 feet in height. It was commissioned to commemorate the 450th anniversary of Michelangelo's death in Rome at the age of 88.
