Williams not caught up in Howard trade talk
LAS VEGAS (AP) - Deron Williams and Dwight Howard talked about being NBA teammates four years ago during the Olympics. Now Williams knows there's speculation that it could happen soon.
He's aware of reports that Orlando and Brooklyn and trying to arrange a trade _ possibly involving two other teams _ but he's not paying too much attention to that.
"There's been a lot of rumors over the last year as far as he's concerned, so early on I concerned myself with it, but lately just let it play out and whatever happens, happens," Williams said Monday at training camp for the latest Olympic team. "I think we'll have a good team without him, I think we'd have an even better team with him."
Howard has asked the Magic to trade him, with the Nets his preferred destination. That goes all the way back to last offseason, and Williams knows it's difficult not only for Howard, but for teammate Brook Lopez, whose name has been linked to all the trade talk.
There were multiple reports Monday that the Nets and Magic were talking with the Clippers and Cavaliers about a deal that would ultimately send Howard to Brooklyn
The Nets have already had a good July, acquiring All-Star guard Joe Johnson from Atlanta and getting Williams to commit to a five-year, $98 million extension, rather than join the Dallas Mavericks. Williams can finally sign the deal late Tuesday night and will be able to fully participate in the U.S. Olympic team's practices Wednesday after sitting out the contact portions for now.
Getting Howard, whom Williams said there is no player like in the NBA, would make them even stronger as they open their first season in Brooklyn.
"I think we'll be good, I think we'll one of the top teams in the East for sure, top teams in the NBA," Williams said, "but it just depends on how everybody jells and comes together as a team."
Williams said he hasn't talked to Howard for a couple of weeks, but knows the situation has been trying for him and hopes to see a resolution soon.
"For him, because I'm friends with him, so I know how tough it's been on him," Williams said. "So yeah, you want to see it end one way or another just so he can be happy and move on."

Polish Director to Receive Venice Film Festival Award
Andrzej Wajda
© RIA Novosti. Yuri ChichkovRelated News
MOSCOW, August 21 (RIA Novosti) – Andrzej Wajda, a prolific Polish filmmaker whose opus includes Russian-themed films, has been awarded a Venice Film Festival prize, the festival's organizers said Wednesday.
Wajda "is the director who has been capable, in his work … of raising the most decisive and important questions about the history of his country, and consequently, of Europe in its entirety," Venice Film Festival director Alberto Barbera said in a statement posted on the festival's website.
The 87-year-old filmmaker will receive a Persol award on Sept. 5 prior to the out-of-competition screening of his latest film, "Walesa. Man of Hope," a biopic about Lech Walesa, the Polish trade union leader turned politician.
Wajda's biography on the entertainment and film website imdb.com describes him as being "considered the most seminal Polish director, responsible for leading the 'Polish school' of filmmaking."
Wajda has directed and scripted more than 50 films, four of which have been nominated for the Best Foreign Language Film Academy Award. His "Man of Iron," a cinematic portrait of a Solidarity labor movement leader, won the Palme d'Or at the 1981 Cannes Film Festival.
The filmmaker's father Jakub was a Polish artillerist killed by Soviet secret police in 1940 in the Katyn forest massacre. The execution of more than 20,000 Polish soldiers and officers has for decades strained relations between Moscow and Warsaw.
Wajda depicted the massacre in his critically acclaimed 2007 film "Katyn," which featured Russian actors and was lambasted by Russian Communists as a "primitive" propaganda flick.
His other Russia-themed films include "The Possessed," a 1988 adaptation of Fyodor Dostoyevsky's eponymous novel, and "The Siberian Lady Macbeth," a 1961 adaptation of Nikolai Leskov's 1865 novel "Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk District." Wajda has also directed several theater plays based on Dostoyevsky's novels.

Serving up a mixture of flavors from around China is Kanglong's specialty. Cooking manners stem mainly from the Hubei region but are influenced by Sichuan cuisines, Hunan cuisines. Steak, chicken breast, salmon and other western style dishes also are strongly recommended on the menu.
Local specialties like Wuchang Fish (once immortalized in a Mao Zedong poem), Sliced Duck, Salt and Pepper Spareribs and Griddle Cooked Shredded Chicken shouldn't be missed. The food is usually delicate and consistently good with acceptable prices and the friendly and courteous staff.

The last remaining insurer of new municipal-bond issues is bracing for a fall that could bring its industry to a new low—and possibly increase borrowing costs for some small local governments.
Moody's Investors Service warned in late March that it might cut bond-insurer Assured Guaranty Ltd. AGO -1.90% Assured Guaranty Ltd. U.S.: NYSE $22.72 -0.44 -1.90% Dec. 11, 2013 4:01 pm Volume (Delayed 15m) : 2.61M AFTER HOURS $22.70 -0.02 -0.09% Dec. 11, 2013 4:02 pm Volume (Delayed 15m): 3,596 P/E Ratio 7.75 Market Cap $4.21 Billion Dividend Yield 1.76% Rev. per Employee $4,090,910 09/16/13 Detroit Bankruptcy Fight Heads... More quote details and news » 's credit rating to the single-A range from the current Aa3, which is three notches below the highest rating of triple-A.
A downgrade, likely in the coming weeks, would probably crimp demand from local governments and other municipal issuers for Assured Guaranty's coverage, analysts and local government officials say. That would leave fewer insured deals for investors to buy, as Assured Guaranty is the only company still writing coverage on new offerings.
A majority of the bonds Assured Guaranty insures are rated single-A or better, and cities, counties and other borrowers usually only buy coverage from a company that has a higher rating than they do. The insurance guarantees that interest and principal payments will be made if the issuer defaults.
Less bond insurance could make some individual investors wary of buying debt issued by small local governments that rarely borrow in the municipal-bond market, some analysts say, which could increase their borrowing costs.
Assured Guaranty's battle for relevance underscores the crisis that has enveloped an industry that at its height backed around 60% of municipal-bond issuance. The industry was eviscerated in 2008, when the mortgage-linked deals the bond insurers had guaranteed plummeted in value. Before the crisis about a half-dozen companies insured new municipal bond issues. Last year, according to Moody's, 5.2% of new municipal-bond issuance had insurance.
Future downgrades by Moody's or Standard & Poor's Ratings Services of Assured Guaranty could further sap demand for its bond insurance. That means the bond insurance industry that existed before the financial crisis will continue to play even less of a role in the municipal-securities market.
Assured Guaranty's executives counter that S&P, a unit of McGraw-Hill Cos., rates the company double-A-minus, also three notches below a triple-A rating. S&P downgraded Assured Guaranty two notches in November based on new rating criteria, less than some market participants had expected.
Assured Guaranty insured securities issued by three municipalities that are now embroiled in high-profile defaults, including Harrisburg, Pa. Reuters
A downgrade by Moody's, a unit of Moody's Corp., would prompt investors and municipal-bond issuers to pay attention to S&P's higher rating, Assured Guaranty executives say.
But analysts and local government officials say they are more likely to focus on the lower of the two ratings as they anticipate future downgrades from both credit-rating firms.
Moody's analysts say they are concerned that demand for bond insurance from municipal-issuers and institutional investors on new offerings is tepid, and that the deals the company has already backstopped are at greater risk for possible default as local governments feel the pinch of lower revenues.
"It's almost like a vicious cycle," said Rob Haines, an insurance analyst at CreditSights Inc. who believes the downgrade is unwarranted. "I'm afraid the downgrade is going to be a self-fulfilling prophecy."
Since Moody's announced its review of Assured Guaranty's rating on March 20, the bond insurer's shares have fallen around 30% to $13.03 on Wednesday. The company reports first-quarter earnings Thursday evening.
About 330 local governments and other municipal issuers purchased bond insurance from Assured Guaranty in the fourth quarter, and 88% of those were rated in the single-A category or higher by Moody's or Standard & Poor's, according to an analysis of the company's documents by The Wall Street Journal.
Assured Guaranty executives say that the municipal-securities market without bond insurance is riskier, particularly for individual investors. The company insured securities issued by three municipalities that are now embroiled in high-profile defaults—Jefferson County, Ala.; Harrisburg, Pa., and Stockton, Calif.
Investors in the debt issued by those local governments have "the security of knowing, come next quarter, they're still going to get their timely payments of principal and interest when it's due," Dominic Frederico, Assured Guaranty's chief executive, said in an interview.
However, demand has continued to wane among some municipalities that used to be consistent buyers.
Officials in Monroe County, N.Y., located along Lake Ontario and home to Rochester, planned to purchase insurance from Assured Guaranty on a $60.4 million bond deal set to hit the market in mid-March. But the day before the deal priced, local officials determined that Assured Guaranty's insurance wouldn't save the A3-rated county any money, said Chief Financial Officer Scott Adair.

Love this thread one of the best I've read on here.
This happened to me when I was about 17. I had just spent the night watching count Dracula on hammer house of horror feeling the need to sleep I switched the light out and settled down to get some shut eye. I no sooner did that when I heard a few taps on my bedroom window and a creepy voice whispering my name so I quickley hid under the quilt not daring to look. After a few seconds the tapping became more urgent and the whispers louder. My heart pounding I got up to have a peek behind the curtains it turned out it was my brother who had been for a night out and forgot his key lol . He had climbed up the drainpipe and onto the bay window to let him in. Needless to say I was mad at him for ages after lol.
Not really creepy but it was at the time.

Officials want ways to keep sand on beach, off highway
by Associated Press
Published: November 14,2012
Tags: beach, county, government, highway, public safety, road, sand, tourism, tourist, transportation, travel, vacation, visitor
HARRISON COUNTY — Officials are looking for ways to keep sand along the Mississippi Gulf Coast on the beach where it belongs — instead of blowing onto U.S. Highway 90.
Sand on the highway is a driving hazard, and cleaning it up is costly. WLOX television reports Harrison County has been working with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers to stop the sand from blowing onto the highway, or at least reduce the amount.
The corps next month will present recommendations for keeping the sand on the beach.
"We're going to do a trial area, hopefully in the near future, of lowering the template of the beach to a certain level to try and take care of the problem of the sand blowing onto the roadway," said Harrison County Sand Beach Director Chuck Loftis. "We have to be sure not to damage the seawall in any way with removing too much sand. So, that's what the Corps is coming in and telling us, how low we can put the template of the beach."
Adding dunes and vegetation will be part of the long-term solution.
"It took us 20 years to get those dunes up and running on the beach and Katrina took it out. And it's just going to take time. I hope it doesn't take another 20 years," said Connie Rockco, a county supervisor.
Harrison County supervisors also have contacted Mississippi State University for help and suggestions on how best to control that wind-blown sand.

Dorchester resident recognized for her work with homeless children
(Image courtesy Jacquie Spector)
Jayd Rodrigues, the lead teacher of toddlers at Horizons for Homeless Childrens Roxbury-based Edgerley Family Community Childrens Center, was recognized for her five-years of dedicated work.
Rodrigues was presented with the 2012 Sue Heilman Award for Excellence at the nonprofit's 16th Annual Recognition and Awards Dinner.
At the Recognition and Awards Dinner each year, we take the opportunity to let our volunteers, partners and staff know how critical their support is to the children and families we serve, said Åsa Fanelli, president and CEO of at Horizons for Homeless Children in a statement.
According to Horizons for Homeless Children, Rodriques has a deep commitment to the children she serves, learning sign language, Vietnamese, and Haitian Creole to help her better connect with her students.
I was extremely surprised by it, said Rodriques, who hails from Dorchester. I had a different idea of what homelessness looked like. They are just common people. They could be you or me.
The hours may be long and the work hard but Rodriques said she enjoys every moment of it and the recent award will make her work even harder.
Being here for five-years you can lose sight but this award definitely rekindled my passion and I am here for all of the families, said Rodriques.
Founded in 1988, Horizons for Homeless Children, according to the group, has created approximately 150 educational and recreational spaces in family shelters throughout the state.
In Boston Horizons has three Community Children's Centers that provide childcare and early education to 175 homeless children.

ROSE Congratulations state champs Congratulations to the Glide High Wildcats on winning their first state championship in wrestling. It's a well-deserved honor for a school that's long been a powerhouse in the sport, but had never managed better than a second-place state finish, despite having many individual state champs over the years. Depth was the secret this year with 11 state placers, including state champion Garret Short, racking up enough points to easily outdistance second-place Willamina. We salute the athletes who became state champs as well. Oakland's David Henry and Angus Swan were impressive in pinning each of their opponents …

On par with other developing countries, energy use per square meter in India's older existingcommercial buildings is quite low compared to even new buildings in developed countries. Thisis due to low penetration rates of building equipment and appliances, as well as India'spredominantly tropical climate and consequent low heating loads. However, recent growth inmarket demand for better thermal comfort and international-style commercial buildings andlarge scale residential buildings is leading to significant increases in building energy demandthat will likely continue in the medium-term future. The Indian central government has madestrong efforts to improve building energy efficiency in the new construction sector throughseveral national level policies. Despite these efforts, building energy codes have only recentlystarted becoming mandatory in eight states and implementation is going to be difficult due to acomplex regulatory development structure, an historical low-priority given to buildingregulation, and unavailability of data. Labeling and incentive schemes for energy efficientfeatures and products are similarly nascent due in large part to a lack of market awareness andlack of government standardization. Through a literature review and interviews, this papergives an update regarding the expansion of India's capacity to implement building energycodes, especially as experienced in recent development efforts in Hyderabad and Gujaratstates, as well as remaining implementation barriers.

In USA we are taught that people in the M.E. stone people to DEATH for crimes that are not too serious in nature. Is this true?
No words in the holy Quran says that these things must happen. The Bible says a lot about stoning and stuff, but not the Quran.
Why does M.E. practice such things in the name of religion when their religion never commands such things?
I guess for the same reason Christians believe in gay marriage. /

People talk out their anus all the time. Stoning is a barbarians way to deal with issues.Its cheap and effective. It is a third world thing. In iran the main way to execute someone is hanging them. Though stoning still happens
The middle east was hijacked by religious fanatics and fools who bend and twist religion to their own evils.
I talk about it allot in my video here
The middle east isn't as bad as people say. Just like not every american soldier is not a murdering psychopath that rapes the women. Though it does happen

Most Christians would argue that the Bible speaks against "a man lying with another man"
Leviticus 20:13 If a man also lie with mankind, as he lieth with a woman, both of them have committed an abomination: they shall surely be put to death; their blood shall be upon them.
so using that logic, by default, gay marriage would be wrong.
As far as the M.E. (as you put it) is concerned, in my opinion, the Muslims that stone people for stupid reasons are barbaric. Having said that, as long as they keep their barbaric practices in their own stone age countries then I am not concerned with it, although I do find the act(s) deplorable.

I meant gay marriage is wrong... .I think you misunderstood me a little bit.
On the Christian part- God says marriage is between a man and a women... ONLY!
On the Muslim part- Allah never directs one to maim another. Never (less Jihad).
So all religious governments(USA included because when have you heard a candidate not say he is Christian?) are wrong because of these things I've typed.

Posting PR info on Facebook during crisis can improve organisation's image: Study
Washington, Sept. 4 : A new study has revealed that if an organization posts public relations information on social media site Facebook during a time of crisis, it can actually help improve the organisation's image.
The study conducted by researchers at the University of Missouri found that Facebook can be used for crisis management as many public relations professionals are using the site more to communicate to the public.
Researchers Seoyeon Hong and Bokyung Kim analysed users' attitude towards a fictitious organization going through crisis and found a shift when posts related to the organization were posted on Facebook.
The researchers found that participants felt the crises were less severe following the Facebook posts. Hong believes these findings show the positive impact Facebook can make in crisis management efforts.
Hong said that the study shows that Facebook can be a valuable tool for public relations professionals when working to solve or lessen the severity of a crisis as Facebook is very personal for its users, well-thought-out crisis management messages can be effective at reaching users on a personal level, which is a powerful way to persuade people to a cause.
Hong also found that Facebook posts written in a narrative style were more effective than posts written in a non-narrative format. Narrative style is chronological and focuses more on story-telling rather than fact listing.
She said that the effect of narrative tone in organizational statements during crises increases perceived conversational human voice, which represents a high level of engagement and best communicates trust, satisfaction, and commitment to the audience.
The researcher further explained that it is an important practice for public relations professionals because perceptions that an organization is sincerely trying to provide timely and accurate information during a crisis can lead to not only more favorable attitudes toward the organization, but also perceptions of less responsibility the organization has for causing the crisis.

Remapping computer circuitry to cut bottlenecks: New generation computers will help cut down energy use, writes John Markoff
Abstract: Hewlett-Packard researchers have proposed a fundamental rethinking of the modern computer for the coming era of nanoelectronics � a marriage of memory and computing power that could drastically limit the energy used by computers.Today the microprocessor is in the centre of the computing universe, and information is moved, at heavy energy cost, first to be used in computation and then stored. The new approach would be to marry processing to memory to cut down transportation of data and reduce energy use.The semiconductor industry has long warned about a set of impending bottlenecks described as "the wall," a point in time where more than five decades of progress in continuously shrinking the size of transistors used in computation will end. If progress stops it will not only slow the rate of consumer electronics innovation, but also end the exponential increase in the speed of the world's most powerful supercomputers � 1,000 times faster each decade.

It's been one year and six days since the Pierz Pioneers last played in a section final.
The Crosby-Ironton Rangers have had a longer wait.
Not since the dynamic team of 1994 have the Rangers played in a section final. The drought of 14 years will come to an end 5:30 p.m. Friday when the top-seeded Rangers face the perennial powerhouse Pioneers for the Section 6-2A championship at the Fargodome.
Pierz, seeded No 2, will play in its seventh straight section final and will attempt to end the one-year absence from the state tournament. Pierz is 4-2 in its last six section finals and a win would give the program its eighth state appearance.
Crosby-Ironton's Reed Olander returned an interception against Wadena-Deer Creek in the Section 6-2A quarterfinals Oct. 27. The Rangers play Pierz for the section championship Friday at the Fargodome. Brainerd Dispatch/Kelly Humphrey» Purchase reprints of this photo.
"I don't know if it's an advantage, but it's a lot less stressful," Pierz head coach Leo Pohlkamp said about playing in seven-straight finals. "The planning of the food and everything else, we know how to do. We're upgrading to Greyhounds because of the longer trip. We know to wear tennis shoes and not spikes. We usually forget something, but we manage."
The Pioneers have managed pretty well this season. Aside from a loss to Class 2A's second-ranked Eden Valley-Watkins, Pierz has been spotless. The defense has posted five shutouts, including Saturday's 37-0 rout of Osakis in the section semifinal.
The Pioneers (9-1) are averaging 37.9 points a game, while holding opponents to 8.7.
"We're faster than last year," said Pohlkamp. "Last year we couldn't run with Breckenridge (in the section final). They had more speed than we had and it showed. We went to work on that this summer and we're hoping that's improved.
"C-I has a lot of weapons. It's not just one weapon. They have a quarterback who can throw and more than one guy who can catch the ball."
The Rangers finished the regular season 8-0 for the first time since 1973. Wins against Wadena-Deer Creek and Holdingford have them playing at the Fargodome for the first time.
No. 1 Crosby-Ironton (10-0) vs. No. 2 Pierz (9-1)
What: Section 6-2A final
When: 5:30 p.m., Friday
Where: Fargodome, Fargo, N.D.
At stake: Class 2A state football tournament
"We've been practicing inside to get used to that 70-degree temperature and warm air," said Ranger head coach Mike Gindorff. "We're just going to tell the kids to have fun, keep encouraging them and building them up. We will keep with the same mantra we've had all year and that's to finish the week 1-0."
Matthew Hudrlik leads the Rangers with 900 yards and six touchdowns. Nathan Hudrlik is close behind with 856 yards and 12 scores while quarterback Phil Kuhlmann has tallied 178 yards and seven TDs. Kuhlmann has thrown for 1,368 yards and 18 touchdowns on 69 of 138 passing. His main targets are Mark Hoge (23 catches for 599 yards and six TDs), Matthew Hudrlik (27, 382, 4), Mitch Gutzman (13, 162, 3), Alex Bundy (7, 135, 3) and Justin Edmundson (4, 104, 2).
What worries Gindorff is Pierz's offensive line. While the Rangers faced bigger teams all season, Gindorff said they have yet to face a line as talented as the Pioneers.
"They're the best line we will have played against," he said. "You have to be worried about their power running, but at the same time they can bust a big play on you. Plus, you have to stop two or three different guys.
"They pass well enough to keep you honest. You can't stake the line. We're going to stay with what we do and do it the best we can do it."
John Omann leads the Pierz rushing attack with 1,290 yards on 124 carries for a 10.4 yards-per-carry average. He's scored 15 times. The key will be fullback Cody Stangl. The three-year player has rushed for 718 yards and 17 touchdowns on 129 carries (5.6). Mitch Woitalla has 377 yards and five scores and Jake Nelson is healthy again.
Pierz has thrown for 523 yards, led by Zack Pohlkamp's 324 yards and three touchdowns.
"We won't change what we've been doing," said Leo Pohlkamp. "We throw when we want to. We're not as balanced as C-I, but we won't change from what we've been doing.
"We're happy to see C-I playing good football. We know they've been playing good basketball forever. They'll probably have more people over there than us and the place will be filled with that "Go, C-I, Go."

Disasters & Emergencies
Landslides and Mudflows
What are Landslides?
A landslide is a mass of rock, earth, or debris moving down a slope. They are activated by rainstorms, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, fires, and by human modification of the land.
What is a Mudflow?
Mudflows (or debris flows) are rivers of rock, earth, and other debris saturated with water.
They develop when water rapidly accumulates in the ground such as during heavy rainfall or rapid snowmelt, changing the earth into a flowing river of mud or slurry.
Landslide Facts
Landslides may be very small or very large and can move from slow to very high speeds.
It is estimated that landslides cause between 25 and 50 deaths each year in the U.S. and thousands more in vulnerable areas all around the globe.
Mudflow Facts
Mudflows may be very small or very large; flowing rapidly down slopes or through channels, and can strike with little or no warning.
A mudflow can travel several miles from its source, growing in size as it picks up trees, vehicles, and other materials along the way.
Danger Zones
Landslides may occur in all U.S. states/territories; California, West Virginia, Utah, Kentucky, Tennessee, Puerto Rico, Ohio, and Washington are at greatest risk.
Landslide Warning Signs
Doors or windows begin to stick or jam.
New cracks appear in plaster, tile, brick, or foundations.
Outside walls, walks, or stairs begin pulling away from the building.
Slowly developing, widening cracks appear on the ground or on paved areas such as streets or driveways.
Underground utility lines break.
Bulging ground appears at the base of a slope.
Fences, retaining walls, utility poles, or trees tilt or move.
The ground slopes downward in one specific direction and may begin shifting in that direction under your feet.
Be alert for sudden increases or decreases in water flow and a change from clear to muddy water if you are near a stream or channel.
Actions to Consider
Create an evacuation plan for your family and have a backup route in mind.
Be prepared to evacuate if instructed to do so.
Listen for unusual sounds such as trees cracking or boulders knocking.
Plant ground cover on slopes and build retaining walls.
If Indoors
Stay indoors. Move to a second story if possible.
Take cover under a desk, table, or other piece of sturdy furniture.
If Outdoors
Get out of the path of the landslide or mudflow. Run to the nearest high ground in a direction away from the path. Do not delay! Save yourself, not your belongings.
Run for the nearest shelter such as a group of trees or a building if rocks and other debris are approaching.
Curl into a tight ball and protect your head if escape is not possible.
Stay away from the slide area; there may be danger of additional slides.
Check for injured or trapped people near the slide area. Provide first aid and CPR if trained to do so.
Listen to local radio or television stations for the latest emergency information.
Help a neighbor who may require special assistance - large families, children, elderly, and individuals with disabilities.
Check the building foundation, chimney, and surrounding land for damage. Be especially careful to check for downed power lines and gas lines that may have ruptured.
Replant damaged ground as soon as possible since erosion caused by loss of ground cover can lead to flash flooding.
Report property damage to your insurance agent immediately.
Did You Know...
The May 1980 eruption of the Mount St. Helens volcano caused the largest landslide in history - a rock slide-debris avalanche large enough to fill 250 million dump trucks.

The third video from the "Inside IIHS" series has been released, with the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety giving us a look at how it determines the roof strength of vehicles.
Auto News
AutoGuide News Blog
The AutoGuide News Blog is your source for breaking stories from the auto industry. Delivering news immediately, the AutoGuide Blog is constantly updated with the latest information, photos and video from manufacturers, auto shows, the aftermarket and professional racing.
Make way for the new winners! Let's give the Saab 9-5 and the Volkswagen CC three cheers for earning their places as IIHS Top Safety Pick award winners.
Earning good ratings for performance in the Institute's roof strength test for rollover protection, these luxury vehicles also brought in good ratings for front, side, and rear crash protection, and both come standard with electronic stability control. It's interesting to note that Top Safety Pick only applies to the front-wheel drive Volkswagen CC – that's because the heavier all-wheel drive version only rated acceptable in the roof strength test.
Taking the test this time around were eight midsize to large family and luxury cars, but only the 9-5 and CC came out on top. The 2011 Lexus ES 350 earned a good rating for rollover protection, but didn't get an award because it didn't make the grade when it came to rear crash protection. Other contenders that earned acceptable ratings for rollover protection were the BMW 3 series, Chevrolet Impala (models built after July 2010), Infiniti G, Lexus IS 250/350, and Saab 9-3.

If you don't succeed, try, try again. And that's just what Ford did – when the 2011 Edge and Lincoln MKX didn't make the cut for Insurance Institute for Highway Safety's (IIHS) Top Safety Pick award, they made improvements to roof strength, and finally got the thumbs up from the IIHS.
These midsize SUVs jumped from acceptable to good for roof strength in rollover crashes to earn the Top Safety pick award. In order to pick up this prize, vehicles must earn the top rating of good for front, side, rollover, and rear crash protection, and they must have electronic stability control as a standard feature (ESC).
In the IIHS's roof strength evaluation, the Edge and the Lincoln MKX withstood a force equal to 4.7 times the vehicles' weight. To earn a good rating, vehicles must achieve a strength-to-weight ratio of 4 or higher. Only models produced after February, 2011 can boast TSP certification.

Drum roll please! The 2011 Mazda 3 is the latest vehicle to make it as a Top Safety Pick, after earning the top rating of good for roof strength in rollover crashes, as well as for front, side, and rear crash protection.
The sedan/hatchback drove away with a Top Safety Pick in the small cars category. It's the first Mazda to achieve this rating since the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) had changed its criteria, making it more difficult for vehicles to earn a good rating.
To rate the 4-door sedan and hatchback versions, the Mazda 3 had to go through two tests. The roof of the sedan withstood a force equal to 5.32 times the car's weight, while the roof of the hatchback withstood a force equal to 5.09 times its weight. To earn a good rating in the IIHS test, vehicles must have a strength-to-weight ratio of 4 or higher. The Mazda 3 also features electronic stability control (ESC), which comes standard on the 2011 model.
The award for the Mazda 3 only applies to those cars built after December 2010, as the automaker made changes to the roof structure to improve roof strength.
It's good to be good – especially when you're singled out for it. And that's what the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) just did with the 2011 Cadillac CTS and Infiniti M37/M56, which earned Top Pick Safety Awards in the large luxury class and earned the top rating of good in recent roof strength tests.
A roof strength tests assess how well vehicles would protect people in rollover crashes. The CTS and M37/M56 passed this test and also received good ratings in all four of the IIHS's safety evaluations, and include electronic stability control, a feature that helps drivers avoid crashes altogether.
"The test results show that manufacturers are moving quickly to improve the rollover safety of their newest designs," says Institute president Adrian Lund.
Eariler winners in the large luxury class include the BMW 5 series, Hyundai Genesis, Lincoln MKS, Mercedes E class, and Volvo S80.
Using a roof strength test, the Institute is able to evaluate rollover protection. In this particular test, a metal plate is pushed against one corner of a vehicle's roof at a constant speed. The maximum force sustained by the roof before 5 inches of crush is compared to the vehicle's weight to find the strength-to-weight ratio. This test is able to give a good assessment of vehicle structural protection in rollover crashes. Vehicles that are rated good have roofs that can withstand a force equal to at least 4 times the vehicle's weight.

Prince Harry: Boston's strength after bomb attack is 'remarkable'
Related Articles
Published: 21 April 2013
Prince Harry paid tribute to the "remarkable" way the people of Boston dealt with the deadly bombings as he attended the London Marathon today.
The royal said he had always planned on attending the London event despite the terror attack at the finish line of the US race.
"It was never an option as far as I was concerned," he told the BBC.
"Certainly everyone that was planning on coming is still here, no one's changed any plans - the volunteers, the security, everyone is here, nothing's changed.
"It was always going to be really well run and it always is, typically the British way the London marathon has been running for years.
"The way that Boston has dealt with it has been absolutely remarkable. It's never going to get anyone down here, the great thing about the marathon is no matter what colour you are, or religion, no matter what nationality you are, everyone comes together to run a certain distance to raise money for amazing causes.
"I think that you can never that take away from people."
Praising the large turn out of spectators who have lined the streets of the capital to cheer runners on, he added: "It's fantastic, it's typically British I think.
"People have been saying they haven't seen crowds like this for eight years around the route, which is remarkable to see.
"We're always stuck here at this bit of the finish line but maybe next year I can try and get out on the course and soak up the atmosphere a bit."
Harry said the marathon raises millions of pounds for the charities that he and other members of the Royal Family are patrons of.
"It's a great opportunity for people from all walks of life to come along and raise money for their own personal charities, small or big," he said.
"For us we're very lucky, we get a huge amount of places given to us by the marathon for all of our charities - my sister-in-law and William as well.
"We're hugely fortunate for what the marathon does for us. We're immensely grateful to them so I will continue to show my support where I can."
The prince also spoke of the recent announcement that he will take part in a race to the South Pole with a team of wounded British servicemen and women later this year.
"Walking with the Wounded is something that I've been involved with for sometime now," he said.
"It's an amazing opportunity.
"The only reason that I've signed up myself for this is well, firstly, because I only managed to do four days last time. I got dragged back, which was a horrible thing to do.
"But any way that I can support these guys I will, if that means walking 280 miles or whatever it is - no one told me that when I signed up for it - now I know it's a hell of a long way and I'll do my bit, get fed enough because I don't want to hold the guys back.
"It's going to be a fantastic race and a wonderful cause to raise awareness for all these remarkable people around the world that are having to continue their lies with injuries, whether they be mental or physical."

What is the purpose of unlocking weapon skills?
General Discussion « Guild Wars 2 9/09/12 5:27:23 PM
Seems pretty pointless to me..It takes 5-10 minutes to unlock all of the skills. No reason to even have it setup this way honestly. Now if they had a skills level system like Feeble - > - > Experienced ->-> Proficient ->-> Brilliant ->->..ect. and you pick weapon skills as you get higher skill levels over a lenghty period of time then it would make sense. Now? Not so much. |
After playing RaiderZ , Tera and GW2 I have to say that I still prefer the traditional style.
ArenaNet built GW2 around the idea of choice, but....

At least with the trinity you have players that enjoy being the tank , enjoy being the healer/support and enjoy being the DPS. WIth GW2 often times its DPS DPS DPS and I can understand why people find that lacking. |
Not sure if ANET has increased server load or what but during the head start I was always in the overflow for an area and now as soon as I login I get the message to travel to the main area. Take it for what its worth which is very little. My opinion would be the amount of players will lessen. |
Supporting people doesn't give you progression during events :(
General Discussion « Guild Wars 2 8/31/12 11:03:09 PM
The only support is DPS support : /.
I dont know.. I like the game but I cant say its the best PvP ever or even the best combat not when so much of it is centered around AoE.
I have a Guardian at level 22 and a couple other characters below level 10.. I already feel the grind. Running all over the map hoping to hit an active DE with a whole lot of nothing in between ( no dungeons before level 30!?! c'mon now! ) on top of waiting for days for the one DE to become active that actually offers a reward worth having isnt going to keep me wanting to go on for much longer. I also dislike how so much of the combat centers around AoEs. Even though there are many players around each event the game still feels anti social and impersonal. Then I wonder whats going to happen to these events when thee playerbase thins out and spreads out over levels 1-80. I remember the PQs in WAR were pretty nice until there werent enough players around to do them and it could happen with GW2 but at least most here are soloable with terrible rewards to boot. |

I am in love with turning these dollar store solar lights into outdoor hanging lights from Mad In Crafts! I am in the middle of planning out our big backyard re-do, and this is something I am definitely adding to the list!
These little bows would be perfect on a headband for a little girl (or to dress up a little purse)! Check out Funky Polka Dot Giraffe's tutorial!
I am droooling over these cinna-bun butter cakes in a jar by Picky Palate. Her packaging is gorgeous and it sounds so yummy. These would be awesome baby shower gifts- just think "(cinna)Bun in the Oven!"
Thanks for all of the wonderful inspirations! If you've been featured, I would be honored for you to grab a "featured" button!
