Using TLG has been one of the best decisions we've made in our business because timing is everything for our very demanding customers.
We deal with all kinds of chain stores so getting our supplies on time is very important. And doing so for less than we used to pay makes the experience even better.
We really see them as one of our remote offices.

Third-Party negotiating leverage
The opposite is true. By working with ONE consistent supplier, you gain greater control than working with many fragmented ones. The WHOLE is much greater than the sum of its parts.
Decisions are driven from a joint team comprised of your department heads, the 3PL manager and our expert staff.
We are an unbiased third-party, not affiliated with any one carrier or shipper.
In addition to the standard modes of transportation such as Truck Load, LTL, Rail and Intermodal, we are also experts in specialized services such as Expedite, Routings etc.
TLG IS a non-asset based transportation provider with many years of industry experience.
In a typical audit, TLG examines freight bills which you have already paid for possible overcharges. If we find overcharges, we file a claim to recover those overcharges you paid to the carrier that shipped your goods. The carrier must refund to you the amount of the overcharge on all valid claims.
Just as you check your personal bill line by line to make sure that all charges are accurate and that you weren't billed for services you didn't get, a TLG auditor verifies that each line of your freight billing is accurate, both in terms of industry practice and the language of the original contract between you and the carrier who moved your goods. There are many possible errors that can be identified on a freight bill.
When a TLG auditor identifies an overcharge in a client's freight bill, TLG files a claim with the carrier. Governed by relevant law and industry practice, this claim must be responded to in a timely manner. By identifying, as much as possible, only those bills which legitimately contain overcharges, TLG has established a reputation among carriers for honesty and integrity, making it easier for us to collect your money.
We offer two options: 1. The carrier issues a check for the claim amount payable to you and mails it to TLG. TLG verifies that the check is written in the amount of the original claim and then forwards the check to you with an invoice for our portion of the recovery. 2. Most clients authorize TLG to deposit claim checks in our bank. TLG then issues a check payable to you for your portion of the claim.
TLG receives a percentage of the recovered overcharges. We work on a contingency basis, which means if we don't collect for you, we don't get paid.
If no overcharges are found, we return your bills with a statement to that effect. You owe TLG nothing and you have the peace of mind knowing that your bills have been verified by industry experts.
The Transportation Industry Regulatory Act (TIRRA) and the Interstate Commerce Commission Act (ICCTA), passed in 1994 and 1996 respectively, established a 180-day window of opportunity to contest trucking bills. (Other modes of shipping -- rail, ocean and air -- are not covered by these acts.) All claims for truck shipment overcharges must be filed within this 180-day period to be valid.
We can be contacted via email, telephone or by our contact form.

NASA's Nodosaur Track
Last fall, fossil tracker Ray Stanford and paleontologists David Weishampel and Valerie Deleon announced something wonderful–a rare impression of a baby ankylosaur. The delicate specimen, officially named Propanoplosaurus marylandicus and on display at the Smithsonian National Museum of Natural History, is an Early Cretaceous snapshot from Maryland that gives us a fleeting picture of how these armored dinosaurs started life. And the fossil is even more spectacular given the rarity of dinosaur bones found in the area. Paleontologists have discovered teeth and bone fragments over the years–including bones from "Capitalsaurus" in Washington, D.C.–but even partially complete skeletons remain elusive. Dinosaur tracks are far more common, and, according to the Washington Post, Stanford may have discovered a footprint of an adult ankylosaur in an unexpected place.
As reported by Brian Vastag, the print sits on the property of a NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Maryland. Stanford stumbled across the lone track earlier this summer and recently led NASA scientists out to the site to show them the fossil depression. Though the track has started to erode, and may have been damaged by a lawnmower, the roughly 112-million-year-old track still shows four toe imprints. According to David Weishampel, the track could have been made by a nodosaur–a member of the heavily-armored ankylosaur subgroup that lacked tail clubs but often sported prominent spikes along their sides.
Officials at the NASA campus are already moving to protect the fossil, and they plan to bring in paleontologists to look for other dinosaur tracks. The NASA scientists want to keep the site a secret, Vastag reports, but ultimately want the public to be able to see the track. What happens next will depend on the laws that regulate how fossils can be removed and curated. But it seems that there is more than just a lone track at the spaceflight facility. When Stanford took the NASA scientists out to the site, he and other researchers found several more possible dinosaur tracks. The high-tech NASA facility may have been founded on a Cretaceous dinosaur stomping ground.

We went to the Monkey Jungle (which is advertised as "Where Humans Are Caged and Monkeys Run Wild!") on a trip from Key West to Miami sometime in 1967 when this picture was taken. I do not remember much about it, but the kids enjoyed it. In addition to many species of primates, they also have birds.
Currently, Hours of Operation are 9:30 am until 5:00 pm but the ticket office closes at 4:00 pm
Admission Rates
- Adults: $17.95
- Children ( 3 - 9 ) : $11.95
- Senior Discount 65+: $14.95
Prices do not include tax which is 7.5% in Florida.
There is no charge for children under the age of 3.
Presentation times at the wild monkey swimming pool are:
10:00 am 12:15 pm 2:30 pm 4:30 pm
When we got back from our trip to Key West we saw the sign for the Monkey Jungle. We have been driving past it for a few times over the years but this time we decide to follow the signs... The park itself is on the right of Southwest 216 street. It is easy to pass it by so as soon you see a sign slow down and turn right...
After parking your car (no parking fee) you can enter the shop where you can buy your ticket...
Then the yourney begins, you start walking into the cage and notice little baskets hanging on chains.... If you are wondering why they are there for the monkeys will show you by banging them to the cages. You are suppose to fill them with raisins or nuts you can by at the gift shop or around the park...
If you fill them the monkeys pull them up and take the food to drop the baskets for more.. but if you stretch your hand they also will take it from your hand.
Around the park are presentations on set times, it isn't a real large park but depending if you stay at the presentations you can spend the morning or afternoon here...
Pictures taken december 8, 2003
The big show of the day is during the feeding, when the Java monkey's dive into the pool for fruit and treats.
Admission is $13,50. $8 for children.
While you're out here, you should go just a mil farther to Burr's Berry Farm for some of the world's best strawberries.

Do the Obama´s have a personal bank account with the name of National Drug Intelligence Center? And how many million does it have in it from the last four years?
Are they still getting checks ?
Hey Barry, you´re on a roll. Keep those gems coming.If sequestration is allowed to go into effect...... the national sanitariums will be emptied... daily home milk delivery will stop... the price of home-delivered coal will increase... gaslights on every street will go out... production of buggy whips will ceaseI´m sure my fellow LDotters can think of many more terrible events that will befall our nation should this unthinkable cut in spending occur.
If there weren´t so many idiots who believe all this junk, it would be funny.
The late congressman john murtha managed to get the center placed in his congressional district, with a lousy location - Johnstown Pa, with limited airport service inand out of Johnstown.It was but one of many boondoggles served up by Murtha, who should have been in jail.
this is a hilarious story! Off with their heads!
How about these for cuts, Obamageddon?No more guns to the Mexican drug cartels.No more free lunches for illegal aliens.No more Obamaphones for the LoFos.Cut Hillary´s pension.Fewer secret servicemen for Bill.No more F16s or tanks for Egypt.No more tax refunds or unemployment benefits to prisoners or dead people.And on and on . . . and bam you´ve reached >$85B.Oh yeh, and collect those delinquent tax payments due from those irresponsible federal employees for more revenue.There´s your "balanced approach."
Who says it doesn´t exist anymore. Barry probably just transformed it into a muslim outreach agency with hollow point bullets and AK-15s to back it up. Quick. Someone look to see if this so-called non-existent agency participated in FEMAs solicitation to buy guns, bullets, and establish camps. Never mind. I´ll do the search myself.

ALL BLACKS prop Tony Woodcock will take to the field for the first time this year when he plays for the Blues development squad against the Fiji Warriors in Pakuranga tonight.
The 83-test veteran, who scored the only try in last year's Rugby World Cup final, has not played Super Rugby this season after activating an early-season rest clause in his contract to heal niggling injuries.
He will start the match at Bell Park on the loosehead side of the scrum and no doubt Blues coach Pat Lam will be eager to hear how the bookend gets on in his first hit-out of 2012.
"You can tell by his attitude that he can't wait to get out there and get some game time. It's also a great opportunity for the younger guys to play with someone of his experience," says coach Jeff Wilson.
Meanwhile, midfielder Francis Saili has been called up to join the Blues in South Africa ahead of their match against the Stormers after wing Rene Ranger was suspended for two weeks.
« Back to ArticlesWith the series level, expect both teams to put it all on the line as they seek to win the deciding test in Sydney on Saturday night.
It's hard to escape the feeling that Dan Carter's test career could come to an end sooner rather than later.
There are issues aplenty festering away in Australian rugby at the moment which are deeply hurting the game.

Surprisingly though, the focus of a woman's sexual power is in her lower hips, rear and pelvis area!
If that is true, then the types of panties she wears (even if she is the only one who knows) can make a bold statement about who she is, inside! The choices these days range from conservative briefs, to sensual g-string panties. There is a pair of undies for every type of woman, even if you change moods "as fast as you can change underwear!"
Do you prefer panties that are functional; doing the important job of separating delicate areas of the body from your outer clothes? Some good choices are:
Or, do you prefer a different functionality (reduced panty lines) and/or more sensuality in your undies? Then you should consider:
Or you can do like I have, and have a mix of both groups, and wear whatever fits the situation, and mood!
In any case, you can learn the differences and some advantages and disadvantages of all the types, in the photo glossary, below.
Also, I provide a link for each panty, to one of my Top Lingerie Sites, for more examples (or purchase).
If you have never worn a thong or g-string, you may ask "why would I want to?" Consider:
"Why would I not want to wear a g-string or thong?"
You can view the panty photo glossary by scrolling down the page; or you can just use the links below to "jump" to the panties you are interested in (I show 10 different types, here).
The best thing about the bikini type panties is that they are more flattering if you have a bit of tummy, yet they are more stylish than regular briefs!
Plus, most women find that bikini panties are very comfortable for daily wear.
They have a medium amount of coverage, front and back, and certainly wont show through heavier fabrics like denim or wool.
This is a panty style whose waistband is usually thin, and rests on the hips. The sides can be anything from a string to a thicker side band.
The front has a triangle of material, covering everything important, and a bit more. The back is another, larger triangle; the amount of its coverage depends on the style of the bikini, but usually covers 1/2 to 3/4 of the rear area. See more, at HerRoom. Return to Top
Since they are comfortable enough to be worn all day, every day, boy shorts add flexibility to your lingerie; allowing you to wear something stylish and sexy with every outfit!
Another advantage of boy shorts is that (when made seamless and from microfiber, for example) they eliminate panty lines under virtually all tight fitting skirts, pants, etc.
They also are great when matched with a camisole, and worn as lounge or intimate wear.
Boy shorts are rapidly growing in popularity, for a number of reasons; they are ultrasexy, "cheeky", novel, and most women who don't want to wear a thong or g-string find the boy short more exciting to wear than a regular brief.
As you can see in the picture, Boy shorts (also called boyshorts) are a style of panties cut in a way that resembles boys underwear; straight across the top, and straight across the legs/rear, but very high. They also resemble the style of what used to be called "hot pants". See more, at HerRoom.
Brazilian panties are ideal for those who want comfort with a super low panty line and who desire less coverage!
A Brazilian panty covers much more in back than a thong but less than a brief or bikini.
A Brazilian panty has a full crotch, but the back is cut to follow the shape of your cheeks in a curved or arched shape.
Often, Brazilian panties have frilly lace running around the waistband, or around the leg cuts, as well as a floral pattern on the material itself.
This sexy curve is what seperates the Brazilian panty from others. See more, at HerRoom. Return to Top
The classic panty; comfort and coverage for every woman!
One always feels most comfortable of all in a brief, the feel of the coverage is pleasant, no matter if you are sitting all day in the office, active at home, or working out in the gym!
These days, the style options for briefs are almost limitless, from plain white cotton briefs, to sporty microfiber, to romantic lace and ribbon!
I believe every woman should have a good selection of briefs in her drawer; if you do, you are ready for virtually any occasion!
A brief panty's waistband rests at or below the navel. It provides full back and side coverage.
There are variations to the leg cuts in briefs. One is the hi-cut (or "French cut") brief, which has a high-cut leg, for more side/thigh exposure, such as in this picture.
The lady in the picture is wearing briefs with a waist band that is a lower than most, but not as low as a hipster (see below). See more, at HerRoom. Return to Top
Smooth any tummy with this comfortable type of shape wear! If you desire a slimmer silhoutte, you can get one in seconds by putting on a control brief; instantly looking and feeling pounds lighter!
This panty does double duty; first as a regular brief panty, and then the waist line rises above the hips, to give control and support to your mid section.
Depending on the style, control area can even extend up to the ribcage, and down to the mid-thigh, reducing the entire area.
If you want to wear a dress that your body has begun to fill a bit too tightly, the control brief can often give you the room, and look, that you are seeking.
You would be surprised just how popular this type of shapewear is becoming, as we baby boomers grow, and wish to retain more of our younger figure! See more, at HerRoom. Return to Top
This exciting style will boost your sensuality to a new level!
Also, a g-string will absolutely prevent panty lines under tight-fitting garments of most any material, which is a tremendous advantage when wearing tight and/or sheer dresses, etc.
Similar to a thong in front, a g-string leaves your derrier exposed. The back has either a simple string coming off a thin waistband or a small triangle with the string coming out of the lower point.
Obviously, how comfortable you will be while wearing a g-string depends on a few things: the type and thickness of string, your activity level, and how you interpret what your body is feeling.
Personally, I have found that the ones that have the thinnest and softest string (made from microfiber) are as comfortable as regular briefs, and extra sexy. Best of all, I have zero visible panty lines! I prefer them over any other panty, and wear them almost every day. When I plan to be physically active (gym, hiking, etc.) I switch to thongs.
Some women love g-strings, others hate them, most are too afraid to even try! See more, at HerRoom. Return to Top
With the new low cut pants on the market, this style has become very popular! With these, you can wear low cut pants, without showing your undies!
The hipster (also called low-rise brief) is a mid coverage panty; the waist band rests much lower on the hip than a brief. The legs are cut like traditional briefs, not high/French cut.The rise is shorter, so the waistline of the hipster is well below the navel.
A hipster is a perfect solution for wearing under low cut jeans, etc., which is what it is designed to do. Comfort wise, it feels almost exactly the same as a regular brief.
One drawback to hipsters: though they won't normally be visible above the waist line of your pants (even when bending, etc.) they still have the same visible panty lines of any other brief type panty, when worn with sheerer fabric pants, dresses, etc. See more, at HerRoom. Return to Top
The Rio thong is an excellent and exciting starter thong! It is a very flattering look to many body types.
This thong has the most rear coverage of the thong family. Generally, about 1/3 of your rear is covered by material and a similar amount of coverage in the front. Thong styles vary, but they all have a steep angle to the rear material.
If you are not sure if a thong is for you, but are curious to find out, the Rio would be a great start; that's why I am listing it separately from the other thongs. Return to Top
A tanga is (like the Rio, above) another great way to comfortably transition from a brief or bikini, before attempting a thong.
If you have been thinking about trying to wear thongs or g-strings, starting with a tanga would be an easy first step!
In terms of back coverage, most tangas are between a bikini and a thong. A tanga has narrower back coverage than a traditional panty, but is not as narrow as a thong. The front coverage is easily as much as most bikinis, and some briefs.
Tangas are a more common silhouette in Europe. See more, at HerRoom. Return to Top
This exciting style of panty is great for virtually all sizes of body; giving you an ultra sexy look, no visible panty lines, and a sleek appearance!
I find thongs very comfortable to wear, plus the added excitement they give me makes them a pleasure! I think they are a style whose time has come, and their high popularity shows I am not alone in this.
If you want to try a thong,(and not the intermediate step of a Rio or Tanga, described above) then I recommend you buy a few different pairs, and give them a few days to see if they work good magic with you!
A thong is a panty with a narrow piece of fabric in the back that begins as a "v" shape at the waistband and then tapers to a thin strip by the time it reaches the crotch. The cheeks of your bottom are very exposed. It also has a thin strip of waist band, and small (smaller than Tanga) triangle in the front.
I am really impressed with how lovely a thong looks in plus sizes. It is a flattering item of lingerie, for any woman.
The variety of thongs is unbelievable; designers have created some works of lingerie art, with these little numbers! See more, at HerRoom. Return to Top

In which I join Michael Shermer in disagreeing with Jerry Coyne, and Coyne in disagreeing with Shermer
Although, to be fair, I think we're mostly in agreement but talking past one another because of our prioritizing of certain premises.
Michael Shermer thinks that "the most any natural science could ever discover in the way of a deity would be a natural intelligence sufficiently advanced to be god-like but still within the realm of the natural world."; Jerry Coyne claims that there could be, in principle, evidence for a supernatural god — there just isn't.
My position is that we cannot find evidence for a god, that the God Hypothesis is invalid and unacceptable, because "god" is an incoherent concept that has not been defined. I could claim that a spumboodle exists, for instance, and we could go around and around with you presenting hypothetical examples and listing potential entities or forces that are spumboodles, but we'll get nowhere if I never tell you what the heck a spumboodle is or what it does or even how I recognize a spumboodle. Without that, the whole concept is untestable and unverifiable. It really doesn't count if I insist that something undefined exists, and then keep jiggling between vague realities (it exists in our dimension! It has a color!) and contradictory guesswork (it's transdimensional! And completely invisible!) designed to keep moving the spumboodle away from any possibility of honest evaluation.
Coyne accepts the wobble. On the one hand, he is insisting on general principle in the possibility of existence of a divine being (I think a clear and unambiguous definition of "divine" is a prerequisite for that), but on the other he's willing to substitute a mundane creature with only unexplainable abilities for "divine".
Well, yes, we wouldn't know whether a divine being was absolutely omniscient and omnipotent, or relatively more omniscient or omnipotent than us. But if the degree of, say, omnipotence and omniscience is sufficiently large (i.e, any miracle can be worked, all things can be foretold), then I think we can say provisionally that there is a God. I've previously described the kind of evidence that I'd provisionally accept for a divine being, including messages written in our DNA or in a pattern of stars, the reappearance of Jesus on earth in a way that is well documented and convincing to scientists, along with the ability of this returned Jesus to do things like heal amputees. Alternatively, maybe only the prayers of Catholics get answered, and the prayers of Muslims, Jews, and other Christians, don't.
Yes, maybe aliens could do that, and maybe it would be an alien trick to imitate Jesus (combined with an advanced technology that could regrow limbs), but so what? I see no problem with provisionally calling such a being "God"—particularly if it comports with traditional religious belief—until proven otherwise. What I can say is "this looks like God, but we should try to find out more. In the meantime, I'll provisionally accept it." That, of course, depends on there being a plethora of evidence. As we all know, there isn't.
And that's where he loses me. What does it mean to be relatively omniscient or omnipotent? If our criterion is that the being has to be a certain amount more powerful than us to be defined as a god, what is that amount? The sun is much larger than us, and has far more power than we do…is it a god? Or will that suggestion be met by the sudden appearance of additional criteria to constantly exclude all entities from consideration that don't also meet certain unstated requirements?
What I want is something like the Higgs boson: a description of a set of properties, inferred and observed, that can be used as a reasonable boundary for identifying the phenomenon. If you're going to dignify it with the term "hypothesis", there ought to be some little bit of substance there, even if it's speculative. The god proponents can't even do that. God beliefs are remarkably specific — belief in Jesus as an admission ticket to paradise, for instance — but somehow, when it gets down to saying who, what, where, when, and why, they all fly to pieces, and when it comes to saying how they know of its existence, all goes silent, or subsides into ritualistic repetitious chanting of words from a holy book.

The Curious Dentist
In Buffalo, New York, a dentist named Alfred Southwick kept abreast of the latest developments concerning electricity.� As a medical man, he thought electricity could be useful to him in his practice, perhaps as an anesthetic.� When a Buffalo man stumbled into a generator at the citys power plant and was electrocuted, Southwick got an idea;� death from exposure to electricity, he thought, was an instantaneous, painless way to die.� It could be adopted by the State as a replacement for hanging.� At the same time Dr. George Fell, also of Buffalo, was coming to the same conclusions.� After having shared their ideas with each other at a meeting of a Buffalo scientific society, Drs. Fell and Southwick went to Colonel Rockwell, the head of the Buffalo Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals.� Electrocution, they told Rockwell, was a far more efficient and humane method of disposing of unwanted animals than drowning, which was the method then most often employed.� Rockwell agreed.� In 1882 Southwick and Fell began a long series of experiments on Buffalos surplus animals, publishing their findings in scientific papers as they progressed.
Southwick had an influential friend in New York state governmentSenator Daniel MacMillan.� When Southwick showed MacMillan the results of his experiments, MacMillan was struck by how useful electrocution would be against those who wanted to abolish the death penalty.� The main benefit of electrocution was, Southwick claimed, its quick and painless nature.� If abolitionists could no longer claim that capital punishment was cruel and painful then their arguments against it would carry no weight.� MacMillan, a strong proponent of capital punishment, took Southwicks ideas to Governor David Bennett Hill.� Hill was convinced;� in his 1885 State of the State message he charged the New York legislature with finding a means for taking the life of such as are condemned to die in a less barbarous manner.
The legislature did not address Hills concerns in 1885.� In 1886 he took a different tack, appointing A Commission to Investigate and Report the Most Humane and Practical Method of Carrying into Effect the Sentence of Death in Capital Cases.� Appointed to the committee were Alfred Southwick, Matthew Hale, and Elbridge Gerry.� The conclusion arrived at in their 95-page report was thisthat of all the types of execution that could possibly replace hanging, electrocution was the best option.� The report, submitted in January of 1888, recommended that New York should adopt electrocution as a replacement for hanging.� A proposed bill for the amendment of the Criminal Procedure Code was included.� It was introduced in the legislature almost immediately.
Public reaction to the bill was mixed, and by Spring it seemed doomed, having suffered several amendments that left it a shell of its former self.� But on May 8, the final day of the legislative session, Senator Henry Coggleshell maneuvered the bill back into its original form and got it passed with a voice vote.� Such political gymnastics were uncommon, but raised few eyebrows in an era known for greed and graft.� Governor Hill signed the bill on June 5, and it was set to become law on January 1, 1889.� From that point forward, condemned criminals in New York would be electrocuted instead of hanged.� What remained to be decided, though, was which system, AC or DC, would be used in the New York death chamber.

Braxton Hicks, Braxton Hicks contractions, Physical therapy, Pregnancy, Pregnancy Photos, Relaxin
It's a little late, but here's my 32 week picture. The photos seem to be getting worse and worse, which I suppose means David is getting just as sick of this pregnancy as I am. Or at least that he's getting sick of taking pictures of me. Oh well.
With eight weeks to go I'm tipping the scales at 30 pounds gained. Fan-tas-tic. The reflux took a week or so off, but it's back in full effect now. And my relaxin-induced joint loosening is getting worse and worse. So bad, in fact, that I've started physical therapy for it.
I've never done physical therapy before, so I had no idea what to expect. It turns out that so far I basically just get a massage for 45 minutes and then they send me home with some exercises to do. Twice a week. Paid for by my insurance. I can live with that! Supposedly we're starting "deep bone work" tomorrow, though, so the massages might be over. Sad day.
The highlight of the last few weeks has been an increase in movement. Or not movement exactly, but an increase in what I can feel, since the baby is getting bigger and the amniotic fluid level is maxed out (so the book says). So now instead of just some random nudge, I can tell that it's actually a foot or an elbow. And that's pretty freaking cool. I'm carrying basically the same as I was with Addie and he's doing the same thing she was at this stage: he's head down and he'll push his feet out to my right side and his butt out to my left side, stretching me out as he stretches his legs. It's pretty adorable.
Not so adorable are the intense Braxton Hicks contractions that I'm getting. I've had them since about 20 weeks, but at this point they're pretty extreme. Much worse than they were with Addie. Obviously it's still nothing compared to real labor, but they can leave my abdomen sore by the end of the day. And I get them ALL the time. The books say to call if you get more than four in an hour, but I'd be calling every single day if I did that. My midwives assure me that it's normal in second pregnancies and that I'll know if something isn't right. Which I'm sure is true. But it's still really annoying.
Other than that, I'm just trying to get through the move and settling in. It's hard to imagine having a baby when we have another major life change just a week away. I think once we're moved the next few weeks will go really fast. At least I hope so.
8 weeks to go!!

Back in 1997, the Boxster made Porsche a household name... and without our help. Yup, if you're going to mess up, you might as well flame out in a Boxster.
Now is as good a time as any to reveal our misadventures with one of the most intriguing and groundbreaking sports cars ever made.
With nearly every auto writer in the land begging to test Porsche's new mid-engine marvel, we somehow managed to score a gorgeous 1997 Guards Red Boxster for a week's worth of cruising along a portion of the view-rific Pacific Coast Highway that hugs the cliffs and shoreline between San Francisco and Los Angeles, Calif.
Sadly, that trip ended far too soon.
Late on the second day, a photo shoot on one of Monterey's many beaches (south of Pebble Beach) turned into our worst nightmare when the Boxster became bogged down in sand. In trying to free the car, which had sunk to the point that the rear tires were no longer in contact with anything, a lower control arm was severed. The damage promptly ended the drive, but that was only realized after four body-builder types literally picked up the rear (the heavy end with the engine) of the Porsche and, risking double hernias, literally carried the Boxster about five metres back to asphalt.
The flat-deck truck driver who eventually arrived at the scene kindly dropped us off at a hotel after hauling the wounded and somewhat sand-encrusted roadster to the nearest dealer for repairs. Not so kind were the remarks delivered over the phone by Porsche's PR folks.
The significant repair costs included several hours to vacuum several pounds of beach from every nook and cranny that occurred from spinning the Boxster's wheels in a futile attempt to coax the car onto more solid ground.
Prior to this misguided episode, the Boxster (the name is a derivation of the car's horizontally opposed flat or "boxer" engine and "roadster") was a sure-fire traffic stopper, whether in the city or out on the open road. The response was understandable considering the car's stunning looks. But what really caused jaws to slacken and hearts to fill with lust was when the base price was revealed to be much lower than the 1997 Porsche 911 Carrera convertible.
Initially, Porsche set out to produce an affordable car that would reflect its half-century in the sports-car business. The design inspiration was the company's mid-engine 550 Spyder and the rear-engine Speedster models dating from the 1950s.
There was nothing old-fashioned about the Boxster, however. Unseen behind the cockpit was a 201horsepower 2.5-litre horizontally opposed six-cylinder engine. Porsche claimed a zero-to-60-mph (96 km/h) time of about six seconds with a slick-shifting five-speed manual transmission. A five-speed Tiptronic automatic with steering-wheel-mounted shift buttons was optional.
Atop a lengthy list of neat features was a power-operated top that resided beneath a clamshell-style lid that, in a mere 12 seconds, automatically opened wide to swallow the fabric roof. Other standard goodies included 16-inch alloy wheels (17-inch versions were optional) air conditioning, power windows, leather seats with power adjustments for the driver and stop-on-a-dime disc brakes.
The Boxster's practical nature showed through with a deep storage space up front plus a bonus luggage area behind the mid-mounted engine.
By the year 2000, a newly installed 2.7-litre flat-six gave the Boxster 217 horses to play with, while the all-new Boxster S model's 3.2litre engine produced 250 ponies.
Also by that time, Audi, BMW and Mercedes-Benz were producing their own relatively affordable open-top sports cars. Even Honda had entered the fray with its high-winding S2000 roadster. In no time flat the entire nation was awash in fun-to-drive rolling hair dryers.
Now with a brand-new third generation model arriving, Porsche continues to refine the Boxster, adding progressively more power and content, along with modestly escalating prices. But its continuing popularity, along with that of the Boxster-based Cayman coupe launched for the 2006 model year, have broadened Porsche's sports car lineup, added considerably to the company's fortunes and introduced a previously untapped fan base to the Porsche experience.
A Porsche on the cheap? Not exactly. But a thoroughly competent sports car (that works best when restricted to pavement) for nearly half the price of a comparable 911? What's not to love?

Expert Profile
Genevieve Gebhart
2013-2014 Luce Scholar
Gennie Gebhart, a Sacramento native and now a proud Seattleite, grew up exploring libraries. Gennie graduated from the University of Washington in June 2013 with a degree in International Studies and Economics. While her academic studies at the UW have focused on environmental economics and international energy politics, she is aiming to extend these fields of study into a career in information justice and international librarianship. The UW Libraries have opened countless doors for Gennie, and she owes her current informatics skills and aspirations to them. Having worked at the UW Libraries' Odegaard Undergraduate Library, the Northwest branch of the National Network of Libraries of Medicine, and the UW's Media Center (the main multimedia library), Gennie has had hands-on experience in what it takes to keep a university library running from day to day through everything from budget cuts to large-scale renovations. Gennie's introduction to the art and study of cinema at the Media Center has led to her current senior Honors thesis on Italian film, which she has been fortunate to undertake in Rome during winter quarter 2013. Her activities in Italy so far have included trips to Naples for Christmas and New Years with strangers-turned-family, trying to fix her apartment's water heater, and speaking as much Italian as possible. Gennie's greatest passion lies in the problem-solving and advocacy she has found as a student representative on the UW's Library Student Advisory Committee and Faculty Council on University Libraries. In these groups, terms like "open access," "information justice," and "digital commons" have taken on tangible and urgent meaning. Gennie hopes to enter the global open access debate armed with international experience, a multidisciplinary education, and constant mindfulness of the vital human side of digital information technology.
Gennie is hosted by the Central Library of the National University of Laos in Vientiane, working with Mr. Chancy Phuangsouheth, the director of the Library. The Central Library maintains a number of important international and national level collaborations. It is a member of the ASEAN University Network of Libraries Online, Electronic Information for Libraries, the Lao Library and Information Consortium (LALIC), and the Lao Library Association (LLA). Mr. Chancy serves as the president of LALIC as well as the vice president of the LLA.

- Identify facilities planning and policy issues with recommended steps to address the issues and challenges.
- Completion of a $3.1-million upgrade of the Oshkosh Sports Complex facility in September 2008. The work included a major upgrade of locker rooms, team meeting rooms, offices and other support spaces as well as a major overhaul of the exterior facade and public entrance plaza.
- Infrastructure upgrades — a $2-million upgrade of the campus electrical distribution system and a $1.7-million upgrade of the campus fiber optic system were completed by September 2008.
- The architectural team of Berners-Schober Associates in partnership with VOA was selected to develop the design and manage the construction of the $48-million New Academic Building. Design documents currently are at the 35-percent completion phase, and the project is expected to break ground in September 2009.
- Berners-Schober Associates Inc. also was selected to design the renovation of the former Cub Foods Facility site, 650 Witzel Ave., into the new home for the Facilities Management Department. Moving Facilities Management is necessary to clear the site for the construction of the New Academic Building.
- Acquisition of the former Department of Military Affairs maintenance repair facility located at 663 Third Ave. This two-acre parcel is being retrofitted for use as the Facilities Management Grounds and Vehicle Maintenance Facility.
- Kee Architecture Inc. was selected to develop and manage the construction of the renovation of Elmwood Commons into a Student Support and Development Center. This $8.4-million project is scheduled to break ground in August 2009.
Executive summary
The key components of the Facilities Master Plan include a discussion of strategic goals, program trends, planning issues and themes, space needs, near-term capital development, and major maintenance and renovations.
Strategic goals
The University is guided by five strategic goals:
- Community: Develop a diverse, engaged community of lifelong learners and collaborative scholars that will be regionally based and globally connected.
- Teaching: Enhance the scholarly and physical environment for teaching excellence, active learning and dynamic curricular programs.
- Scholarship: Sustain, support and enhance a vigorous scholarly environment for research, intellectual activity and creative expression.
- Partnership: Expand and support collaborative relationships that contribute to the development of knowledge and its application in new situations while maintaining its core values.
- Stewardship: Promote accessible, representative and altruistic leadership, responsive shared governance and flexible resource stewardship.
Program trends
The following intents and trends will materially affect space needs and the configuration of existing space within the University over the coming decade:
- Increasing enrollment within the College of Nursing has created severe space constraints upon the teaching of basic science courses. This affects both the undergraduate and graduate programs and increases the need for laboratory space on campus. The FNP program continues to see increased demand and will require access to additional operational clinic space.
- Increased emphasis on evaluation of student performance will necessitate access to self-paced learning laboratories, mostly microcomputer based, for students pursuing needed skills.
- The University's designated Centers of Excellence (geology and international studies) are beginning to develop areas of focus that will need support space and access to research facilities. The University also plans on creating several more Centers of Excellence within all four colleges in the near future. As these programs develop, additional demands will be placed on existing facilities.
- Three trends are worth noting: (1) younger, more active researchers are joining the faculty, (2) emeritus faculty are remaining to teach one or more courses a year, and (3) there are new and evolving program specialties.
Planning issues and themes
The top 12 planning issues and themes, by priority, are:
General Purpose Revenue (GPR)
- The College of Nursing is in immediate need of additional instructional, hands-on labs, including multiple state-of-the-art simulation labs.
- The College of Education and Human Services lacks adequate instructional labs, faculty/staff/support offices and grant/special project space.
- The department of foreign language and literature requires a second language lab to meet the large number of students in their programs.
- Many general access classrooms and lecture halls have poor aspect ratios, viewing angles and some lack full ADA accessibility. In addition, they lack modern technology typically used in today's delivery of instruction.
- The lack of a central HVAC system in the old portion of Dempsey Hall makes for a substandard working environment.
- The quality of instructional space in Harrington Hall is substandard and insufficient to accommodate Geology's and Archeology's space needs.
- The campus is cut lengthwise by two one-way high traffic roads, which feed to downtown Oshkosh. The traffic on these roads is disruptive, noisy and presents safety hazards to students and other pedestrians.
Program Revenue (PR)
- Residence hall rooms lack configuration varieties. The rooms are small and, in general, are double occupancy.
- Fletcher Hall is in need of a total overhaul that addresses backlog maintenance, lack of room variety, program space and social gathering space needs.
- Donner and Webster halls are in need of total overhauls that address backlog maintenance, lack of room variety, program space and social gathering space needs.
- Reeve Union lacks an ADA-accessible, inviting main entrance off of Algoma Boulevard.
- The student leadership and involvement space in Reeve Union needs additional space for offices, meetings and casual gathering for the many student groups on campus.
Space needs
The major space needs, by space category, are as follows:
- Classroom facilities: Most existing classrooms were built before 1971, lack technology, are not ideally configured, are otherwise inadequate and in need of renewal. Much of the existing need will be addressed with the construction of the New Academic Building; however, significant classroom-related renovations are planned for various buildings, including Clow Social Science and Swart Hall.
- Laboratory Facilities: The College of Nursing and College of Education and Human Services lack adequate lab space and have needs for additional lab space. New younger, active researchers across the University are joining the faculty and require lab space.
- Office Facilities: Virtually every department has experienced some growth and is in need of additional office space. The situation is particularly acute in the College of Education and the English, Foreign Language and Math departments.
- Residential Facilities: The Resident Life facilities are old, dated and lacking in a diversity of living environments. Appropriate space is needed for older students.
Near-Term Development
- New Academic Building (Construction): This $48-million project currently is in design and is expected to break ground in August 2009 with completion scheduled for August 2011.
- Student Support, Development and Referral Center (Construction): This $8.4-million project also is in design and is expected to break ground in August 2009.
- Clow/Nursing Education Renovation: The renovation of Clow Social Science Center and Nursing Education basement are considered crucial to the redevelopment of the academic core. The project addresses the critical space needs of the College of Nursing and the College of Education and Human Services.
- New Residence Hall Construction: This project evolved as a result of an extensive Residence Life master planning effort. The new residence hall is to provide a type(s) of housing not currently available on campus.
- Clow Lecture Hall Remodeling: The Clow lecture hall remodel redevelops two inaccessible, outmoded lecture halls into modern ADA-accessible classrooms that are a required component of the campus's classroom inventory.
- Dempsey Hall HVAC Renovation: The project will install a central HVAC system in the 1918 portion of the building. Installing a central system will provide the most cost effective way to properly condition the spaces, provide a healthy and comfortable working environment, and allow the removal of the inefficient window air conditioners.
- Donner and Webster Hall Renovations: This project will address much-needed backlog maintenance, reprogramming of space and general updating. This project is the next phase of residence hall work to be completed, as identified in the residence life master plan.
- Fletcher Hall Renovation: This renovation also will provide diversity in housing types and options available to students.
- Reeve Union Entrance Expansion: The Reeve Union Entrance Expansion and Renovation project will develop the western entrance to the building into an inviting and ADA-accessible main entrance off Algoma Boulevard.
- Harrington Hall Renovation: Renovations to Harrington Hall will include installation of a central HVAC system, elimination of backlog maintenance and general upgrading of the facility.
- Clemans and Nelson Halls: Renovations to Clemans and Nelson halls address much-needed backlog maintenance, reprogramming of space and general updating.
- Pearl Avenue Road Development: The Pearl Avenue Road relocation project is a key component of the exterior-site development of the campus. It is anticipated that negotiations between the owners of the AxleTech property and the University will reach a positive conclusion by this biennium so that this road relocation can occur.

Diner Dash Game Customer Reviews
My grandchildren and I both enjoy this game, you can play several options, such as career mode, endless shift in various difficulties which will keep all ages and skill levels entertained. We have challenges against each other. The graphics are not really realistic, but are well drawn and colorful. Kids love to watch diners eat various plates of food. Music is catchy, and is not overpowering to game play. No matter what age it is easy to learn and play, and has good replay value. I downloaded the demo version, then just had to puchase the full game, it was so popular in my home. Give it a try. True it is a simple game premise, but does every game have to be a mental challenge and complicated? Somtimes games are just fun to play.

5.4 PRS and disability
Until now no PRSP has contained an adequate disability dimension, even though people with disabilities are among the most vulnerable and prone to poverty. In fact, they are locked in a vicious circle of poverty, causing bad health, disability and further impoverishment (see Chapter 6). However, the participation of DPOs and organisations working in the field of disability is necessary, as only these actors are able to change the focus of action concerning disability to meet their real interests. A recent study conducted by a World Bank consultant (see Bonnel, 2005) has revealed that when DPOs had the possibility to participate in and contribute to the PRSP, the economic dimension was mostly focused on.
People with disabilities face exclusion at various levels of the PRS approach, of which three main shortcomings can be identified:
1. PRSP Sourcebook
The PRSP Sourcebook rarely considers people with disabilities, and when it does, it is inconsistent. People with disabilities are mostly restricted to the category of social protection and considered as being economically inactive or as welfare cases. On the other hand, statements on inclusive education and with regard to transport and communication make it clear that the surrounding conditions and the environment have to be changed in order to include people with disabilities in society more successfully. In short, the Sourcebook lacks a clear understanding of the term "disability", and indeed the terminology used is at times obviously prejudicial: people with disabilities are addressed as "the disabled" at a number of points. In the Sourcebook people with disabilities are often included in other vulnerable groups, a fact that risks overlooking the special exclusion mechanisms or special needs that these groups require. Such groupings might be helpful in explaining main tendencies, but do not result in appropriate analysis and solutions. Ideally, the chapter on "Cross-cutting Issues" should include a specific section on disability.
2. Lack of participation
People with disabilities rarely participate in consultations for the formulation and preparation of the PRSP. DPOs are seldom able to participate in any stage of the process, as they usually lack the necessary capacities and connections. (For the general constraints for civil society participation, see above.) DPOs and organisations working in the field of disability face the same limits, but very often in an intensified form: the process, for example, is even more non-transparent for people with impairment, as the information is not provided in an accessible format (e.g. Braille or sign language).
3. PRSP documents
Most PRSPs do not address people with disabilities in a comprehensive way. PRSPs contain mainly vague formulations for policy measures, and suggestions are often selective and do not include the wider context. It is not enough that disability issues are mentioned in the PRSP itself: they must also be included in the action plan or policy matrix, which sets the priorities of the PRS. Furthermore, these measures must be considered in the budget, and all related instruments such as the PRGF, PRSC, CAS or the progress reports, as otherwise they will be omitted from day-to-day policy, and resources will be scarce. Given the lack of data available, and keeping in mind the fact that there is little understanding of disability and of the situation of people with disabilities, the latter are often treated as a homogeneous group, or simply subsumed in the huge group of "vulnerable persons". The main characteristic of members of this group is their inability to work, so the solutions proposed concern only social protection. Little attention is paid to the various types of disability and the differences in terms of living situation – for example, disability is never mentioned in the context of rural development.

Nomandela Snipes Bragging Rights
09 December 2012
ABSA Premiership
Teams: Free State Stars 1-0 Bloemfontein Celtic
Date: 9 December 2012
Venue: Charles Mopeli Stadium
Referee: Zolile Mthetho
Free State Stars claimed bragging rights with a 1-0 victory over cross-town rivals Bloemfontein Celtic in the Premiership on Sunday.
Luyolo Nomandela sniped the spoils with a last-gasp winner at Charles Mopeli Stadium.
In a dour derby, Stars threatened early on, as Anver Esterhuizen's shot drew a save from goalkeeper Patrick Tignyemb two minutes in.
Tignyemb was forced into action again in the 10th and 20th minute respectively, with the Cameroonian equal to Moeketsi Mvula's separate efforts.
At the other end, Jacky Motshegwa fired harmlessly over the cross bar midway through the stanza, while Celtic playmaker Ruzaigh Gamildien put his attempt wide eight minutes before the interval.
The second period saw more of the same, with the sides trading efforts without reward until late on.
Joel Mogorosi, Lerato Manzini, a half-time replacement for ex-Jomo Cosmos hitman Siyabonga Nontshinga, and Gamildien had unsuccessful cracks on goal for Phunya Sele Sele, as did Lennox Bacela, who was denied by Zambian Africa Cup of Nations winner Kennedy Mweene in the 78th minute.
Ea Lla Koto's Dove Wome and Tsietsi Mkwanazi were likewise unable to find a way through.
However, Nomandela struck the decisive blow in the sixth minute of stoppage time to snatch three points.
Free State Stars: Kennedy Mweene, Luyola Nomandela, Sadate Ouro-Akorika, Enver Esterhuizen, Enva Wiltwer, Angelo Kerspuy (Mhamha 74'), Daniel Cardoso, Tsietsi Mkwanazi, Paulus Masehe, Dove Wome, Moeketsi Mvula (Berrian 54').
Bloemfontein Celtic: Patrick Tignyemb, Tsietsi Mahoa, Thabo Nthethe, Limbikani Mzava, Dominic Isaacs, Jacky Motshegwa (Leonard 76'), Itumeleng Duiker, Joel Mogorosi (Lakay 90+3'), Ruzaigh Gamildien, Siyabonga Nontshinga (Manzini 46'), Lennox Bacela.
Goals: Luyolo Nomandela (Stars 90+6').
