for the Trail Mountain Bike Leader Award
OverviewTrail terrain is non-technical. This means that it does not involve specific route selection (for example between rocks, roots or other obstacles) in order to ride on it. It can be as narrow as handlebar width. Typical trail terrain includes: forest tracks, fireroads, cycleways, and other smooth ground. Public highways and roads also fall within trail terrain.
The Bike Park, which features seven trails and numerous jumps, drops and berms for riders of all ages and abilities, has already been attracting enthusiasts both from the nearby garrison towns and from civilians.
With the future of the site put in the balance by concerns that the trails on site were too challenging, CTC, the national cycling charity stepped in to support Tidworth Freeride. CTC now welcomes the Park to the CTC Bike Park Network joining four others in the charity's partnership mountain bike sites across the UK.

Notes to editors
Mountain bike professionals including Olly Wilkins from the DMR team will be at the official opening on Friday 14th June 2pm
There's less than a month to go before the 2013 Endurance Series kicks off again after a brilliant first year of competition in 2012. Up and down the country, at some of the best mountain bike races on the calendar, the biggest names in British Endurance racing will be pushing themselves to the limit for the title of Endurance Series Champion.
Once again the series will combine six well known mountain bike events, spanning a range of distances and durations, to produce the ultimate Mountain Bike Endurance Champions.
Bontrager Twentyfour12 is an endurance Mountain Bike Race around a course of approximately 12-14km, entirely off road. As the name suggests, multiple races take place at the same time on the same course: a 24 hour race, a 12 hour one starting at midday and another 12 hour one at Midnight- the Torchbearer12.
The venue offers space and facilities for camping, all on site, beautiful scenery, and a flat arena/camping area. This is complimented by a course that has been host to five rounds of the Cross Country World Cup in the 1990s and continues to have a superb reputation for variety and fun riding - and it's able to withstand some horrible weather and still be rideable.
The idea is quite simple - you race as many laps as you can in the time allowed and as long as you have started a lap before the finish time you will be able to complete it.
There are lots of different categories in each race and there should be something that appeals to all levels and ability of rider - from novices through to very experienced - and all levels of equipment and lighting. The main 12 and 24 hour races start at midday on Saturday 7 July, the 12 hour race finishes at midnight, with the 24 hour one continuing onto Midday on Sunday. As one 12 hour race finishes, another begins as the Midnight category breathes new riders onto the course.
The venue has lots of space for camping with showers, toilets, water, trade stands, bike shops, bike wash, massage, entertainment and mechanic support, plus lighting partners Exposure will be on hand to keep your batteries charged throughout the night. All you need to do is bring your bike, helmet, a set of lights (the info below may give you an idea of how good they need to be), a tent (or caravan/motorhome) and get entered.
So which do you choose? Well, first ask yourself a few questions ...
Have you raced your Mountain Bike off-road before? Do you have people who will be able to keep you and your bike moving? Do you have high quality lights with a long 'burn time' (how long they will last before needed recharging?). Can you perform well with little or no sleep? What preparation will you do? Will it freak you out being alone in the dark woods at night...?
There are lots of other questions, but as this event is meant to be endurable and enjoyable, if you have lots of 'No' answers already, then you should really be thinking about getting some like-minded souls together to form a team or a pair! This will make the weekend more sociable and help back you up when you tell everyone at work on Monday that you spent the weekend taking part in a 24 hour mountain bike race!
12 hour options
Riding the 12 hour event means you get to finish at midnight, sit round the barbie, crack open some beers and heckle the brave souls who are carrying on for the full 24.
This race offers solos only at a crazy time, with a lot more darkness to contend with. There will be a separated start area to spread out the Torchbearer riders before joining the main course.
The Torchbearer12 starts at Midnight and finishes at Midday on Sunday 28 July
24 Hour options
Solo - Keith Bontrager says you don't race for 24 hours solo, you just exist. Well that may be true, but there are some mad people out there who do it regularly and can perform well without any sleep. These people usually have a dedicated team of helpers keeping them fed, watered and working (often affectionately known as 'pit bitches'). These people should be marvelled at and celebrated (riders and bitches). This category is limited to 80 riders in 2013.
Pairs - Same as 12 hour pairs...except twice as long. In many riders' opinion, 24 hour pairs is harder than 24 hour solo for deep psychological reasons...find out if you agree... This category also sells out...we have no idea why it is popular...prizes will be awarded for top 3 in each category
Teams - 4 or 5 riders in a relay format. You can choose who goes when and whether they ride 1,2 or 3 laps at a time (this means less changing over and less time wasted in the relay transition), this also means that you might just be able to get some sleep - but make sure you have a good alarm clock for that 4am changeover. There are 2 sub categories in this category for Masters (combined age 130+ for 4 riders and 160+ for 5 riders); and Veterans (combined age 170+ for 4 riders and 210+ for 5 riders). Prizes for top 3 in each category and trophies for sub category winners.
Just for Fun - That's right! Lots of fun! Up to 10 riders means that you will spend the majority of the time drinking coffee, looking at the trade stands, watching the entertainment, eating crepes and sleeping, with just the occasional inconvenience of actually riding your bike for the odd lap. Also means you won't have to invest in a very expensive set of lights to take part. There are no prizes in Just for Fun, but the top 3 teams do get to stand on the podium.
The mini-downhill format, masterminded by Naked Racing's Chris Roberts, aims to make downhill racing more accessible to everyone who enjoys the sport. Sunday saw the first ever mini-enduro, Chris' attempt to do the same for the Enduro format of bike racing. The race was held in Devon's Haldon Forest Park, and despite the adverse weather conditions was attended by nearly 150 keen riders, from former world champion Gee Atherton down to people racing for the first time ever!
Stan's NoTubes Oktoberfest powered by Mercedes-Benz Vito Sport in (surprise, surprise) October. Now going for a good number of years, the Oktoberfest is hot on the heals of its June brother in terms of popularity and atmosphere.
The Oktoberfest cramps everything into just one day with the popular 8hour team, pairs and solo event as well as two 4hour events – one starting am and one pm. The event will once more be based around the fantastic Ashton Court course and will feature the Bikefest typical relaxed atmosphere, smooth overall organisation plus a little bit of an 'Bavarian' twist'.
So be prepared for swoopy single track, oompah music, a great event village, superb event catering, some (not Bavarian) tunes during the day and in the evening, pretzels as medals (or maybe not) and some Weissbier at the bar!
To find out all the details of the Stan's NoTubes Oktoberfest powered by Mercedes-Benz Vito Sport and to enter please go to www.bike-fest.com.
Aston Hill has long been a favourite of riders across the South-East, including riders and writers for Mountain Bike Rider (MBR) magazine. It is situated just outside Wendover in the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Beauty and features five graded downhill (DH) runs, a 4X track and a two-part cross-country (XC) loop.
The purpose of the day was to get some up-to-date photos of mountain bikes in an amazing setting. So CTC's Senior Off-Road Officer Ian Warby and I teamed up with junior downhill rider, Josh Lowe, to pose on bikes in Aston Hill.
Gorrick 12:12 Torq in your Sleep
Gorrick's headline event of the year that is recommended as a great experience for riders of all ages and abilities.
The event takes place over 12 hours from noon to midnight. at Minley Manor in Hampshire. There will be riding for Solos, Pairs or Teams (team members don't have to be confirmed until the day).
You can expect a superb 8 mile figure of 8 course featuring the Bridge to Nowhere, a huge marquee and arena with loads of trade stands and a DJ. There is beer and chocolate as you finish and chill before the spot prizes draw and then the trophy/prize presentations.
Free trackside camping is available from Saturday until Monday morning, so you can make a weekend of it.
There'll be full facilities, including showers, and catering.
Entry is online only and will close when the event is full. No entry on the day.
To enter go to www.gorrick.com

Franklin High students became active volunteers in a service-learning program this fall to improve the ecosystem along the Franklin Greenway.
More than 40 students, along with local community members, conducted a three-day site inventory and extraction of exotic invasive plants along two miles of the greenway in October.
Exotic invasive plants have seriously degraded the natural areas along the greenway. Exotic plants spread aggressively and monopolize light, nutrients and space to the detriment of native species. As a result, animals that rely on native plants for food and shelter also suffer losses.
"The worst exotic invasive plants change the character of entire ecosystems," said Mary Bennett, Southwestern Community College's GEAR UP College Readiness Coach.
Controlling exotic invasive plants is labor intensive, in this case requiring pulling, digging and chopping.
"It's just plain hard work!" observed sophomore Clinton Anderson, who eagerly uprooted 10-foot-tall shrubs from the woods.
In addition to the manual labor, the program was coupled with classroom instruction, guest speakers and fieldwork exercises.
"Participating in a practical and hands-on activity while communicating with professionals enables the students to improve technical skills and job readiness while increasing their career awareness," said Bennett.
Other groups participating in the project included Western North Carolina Alliance, Friend of the Greenway, Coweeta Hydrological Lab, U.S. Fish and Wildlife, and Land Trust for the Little Tennessee.
"The students really took to the responsibility of protecting the natural habitat and wanted to leave it in better shape," said Franklin Agriculture Teacher Devon Deal.

A Gentile man pretends to be Jewish to impress the girl of his dreams, enlisting the aid of his Jewish best friend in order to maintain the elaborate ruse in this romantic comedy based on the hit play by Bryan Fogel and Sam Wolfson. Christian O'Connell (Ivan Sergei) and Adam Lipschitz (Joel David Moore) have been best friends since childhood. As Adam begins questioning his decision to marry Hannah (Jamie-Lynn Sigler), Christian falls hard for Alison (Jennifer Love Hewitt), a rabbi's daughter. Having impulsively introduced himself to Alison as "Avi Rosenberg" Christian finds himself in the difficult position of having to maintain his deception with more than a little help from his old pal Adam. But as the lies begin to snowball, it's only a matter of time before both men are faced with making revelations that could throw their love lives into chaos.

Beware the Gonzo
A teenager learns both the upsides and downsides of upsetting the status quo in this comedy. Eddie Gilman (Ezra Miller) is a high school student who has great ambitions of becoming a journalist and wants to write for the school newspaper. However, Eddie is low on the school's social pecking order, and when he angers the paper's self-centered editor, Gavin Riley (Jesse McCartney), he's bumped from their staff. Determined to have his say, Eddie starts his own underground paper, "The Gonzo Files," which tells the messy truth about campus stories and dispels the lies spread about some of the student body. Eddie and his staff -- including fellow geeky outcasts Scheenman (Edward Gelbinovich), Horny Rob (Griffin Newman) and Ming Na (Stefanie Y. Hong), and gossip victim Evie (Zoë Kravitz) -- become heroes at the school as "The Gonzo Files" becomes a hit, but Eddie's new popularity goes to his head, and he ends up on the other side of the same sort of rumors he wrote about himself. Also starring Amy Sedaris and Campbell Scott as Eddie's mom and dad, Beware the Gonzo was an official selection at the 2010 Tribeca Film Festival. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A notoriously gullible detective becomes the number one suspect in the murder of a tabloid reporter after accepting the task of protecting a once-famous celebrity who faked his death to escape the public eye in director Peter Ettinger's quirky adaptation of Steve Brewer's popular series of novels. The grandson of the only known fatality brought on by the 1939 radio broadcast of War of the Worlds, Bubba Mabry (Jay Mohr) comes from a lone line of painfully gullible descendents - and he's determined not to live down to the family reputation. Operating from the seedy confines of a criminal-infested Route 66 Motor Inn, Bubba finds that few of Albuquerque's skeptical locals are willing to enlist the aid of a detective of such credulous origins. When a man named J.G. (Mike Star) shows up covered in gold jewelry and approaches Bubba about protecting a recently-arrived celebrity from an overzealous fan, the struggling detective sees his latest mission is an easy way to make a quick buck. Upon discovering that his latest client is none other than the Elvis Presley, and that the "fan" is actually a tabloid reporter looking to break the story that The King is still around, however, the once-simple case begins to grow increasingly complex. As if things weren't strange enough already, the body of the reporter has been discovered dead in a motel room and Elvis and J.G. have skipped town, leaving Bubba the prime suspect in the strange murder. Now, in order to crack the case and stay out of prison, Bubba is going to have to stay one-step ahead of tireless female reporters Felicia Quattlebaum (Lindsay Price) and Bambi Gamble (Nikki Cox) as he seeks out a suspicious local concert promoter and get to the source of a lucrative blackmail scheme aimed at blowing the lid off of The King's long-running ruse. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Storm select strong squad
Melbourne Storm have included 11 members of their Grand Final-winning team in a 21-man squad for the World Club Challenge against Leeds Rhinos at Headingley on Friday 22 February.
Kangaroo trio Cameron Smith, Billy Slater and Cooper Cronk will all be part of the squad that flies out of Melbourne tomorrow after overcoming injury concerns.
Smith is fine to tour despite breaking his nose in the NRL All-Stars clash in Brisbane yesterday, a match Slater and Cronk withdrew from.
Cronk has sufficiently recovered from a back injury to travel, while Slater, who pulled out of the All Stars game with ankle and shoulder complaints, proved his fitness in the Storm's 40-8 trial defeat by Canberra on Friday.
However, the Storm paid a heavy price for their mauling by the Raiders, with New Zealand internationals Matt Duffie (hamstring) and Kevin Proctor (knee) and utility back Maurice Blair (cheekbone) all suffering injuries which ruled them out of the trip.
The squad includes former Wigan Warriors duo Brett Finch and Ryan Hoffman, who will be appearing in his fourth World Club Challenge, England international Gareth Widdop and new recruits Lagi Setu, Junior Sa'u and Junior Moors.
Melbourne and Leeds have met twice in the World Club Challenge, in 2008 and 2010, with honours shared.
The Rhinos are the current world title holders after defeating Manly in last year's match, while the Storm return to the UK for the first time since 2010 and will be looking to become the first NRL club to win three global challenge matches.
The squad arrive in London on Tuesday morning and will spend five days in the capital before travelling to Leeds next Sunday to complete their final preparations and will hold an opposed training session with Halifax on Tuesday week.
Melbourne squad: Kenny Bromwich, Jesse Bromwich, Will Chambers, Cooper Cronk, Brett Finch, Mahe Fonua, Ben Hampton, Tohu Harris, Ryan Hinchcliffe, Ryan Hoffman, Junior Moors, Bryan Norrie, Justin O'Neill, Jason Ryles, Junior Sa'u, Lagi Setu, Billy Slater, Cameron Smith (capt), Siosaia Vave, Sisa Waqa, Gareth Widdop.

Independence Day Racing
We were poking around the Library of Congress' collection of photos on the Flickr Commons site, wondering if perhaps an interesting aviation-related Independence Day image might present itself. No such luck, but we did find this old gem, marked "Heinrich's Aeroplane, Governor's Island 7/4/14." Between help from Flickr readers and a July 5, 1914 issue of the New York Times, the Library deduced that the image features "the Heinrich Model D monoplane, flown by aviator Albert S. Heinrich (1889-1974), on day of a race above the Hudson River, New York on July 4, 1914." Remembering our early aviators and how they shaped our lives today is certainly a nice way to to celebrate this country's long history.

The dryer looks sleek n stylish. Its made of strong and durable material. The colour combi. of a dull white and pink is just that elegant.
Is efficient and the temperature spreads evenly on the hair which is exposed to the dryer. Does give the results wanted.
It has 5 options and not 6 as mentioned, as the first option is only the 'switch on'.
There is no difference between the cool shot button and the option with the minimal heat setting. Its all the same.
Overall it can be said that its not as sophisticated as is claimed, but just works well with whatever there is.
It is adequate and works more than needed in a home set-up.
Its priced right and is for anyone who is looking for an 'in-between' dryer which is not too simple, but also not too pricey and complicated.
And kudos to flipkart for the packing and delivery made in just 3 days!!!
I don't know much about the technicalities of this product; I just use it to dry my hair before straightening ..I don't know how to straighten or curl using a blow dryer but this hair dryer is pretty nice because it has 6 different temperature and wind settings ..i've tried this dryer from drying my hair really quickly and turning it into a pouf before straightening (haha) to using the cool shot button and letting my hair dry while maintaining my natural curls ..

Notes from the MAR Legal Hotline
Steve Ryan, MAR General Counsel
Michael McDonagh, MAR Associate Counsel
July 2009
Short Sales
A short sale is a transaction in which the lender, or lenders, agree to accept less than the mortgage amount owed by the current homeowner. In some cases, the difference is forgiven by the lender, and in others the homeowner must make arrangements with the lender to settle the remainder of the debt.
Q. What are the biggest challenges identified by REALTORS® when working through short sales?
A. Limited Experience. Many REALTORS® are new to the short sales process, a difficulty which is compounded by many lenders' lack of sufficient and experienced staff to process short sales. Even if the REALTORS® are experienced, many servicers are understaffed and still not adequately trained, making negotiating a short sale particularly difficult.
Absence of a uniform process and application. Currently, both short sales documents and processes are lender-specific, making it very difficult and time-consuming for REALTORS® to become knowledgeable and efficient in facilitating these transactions.
Multiple lenders. When more than one lender is involved, the negotiations are much more difficult. Second lien holders often hold up the transaction to exert the largest possible payment, in exchange for releasing their lien, even though in foreclosure they will often get nothing.
Q. Is it possible for a seller to receive short sale approval when there is more than one lien on the property? What happens if approval of the second lien holder is not received?
A. If the second lien holder does not approve of the sale, the seller might not close on the property. If more than one lender must accept less than its full payoff, each of the lenders being asked to take a short payoff will process the request independently. For example, if there is a $300k first mortgage and a $50k second mortgage, and the gross proceeds to the seller total $325k, the first mortgagee will expect full payment regardless of the second mortgagee who may not agree to this.
Even though the primary lender agrees to a short sale other creditors may not. So as you negotiate the short sale, be aware of other outstanding fees like secondary mortgages or tax liens. If there is a second mortgage or equity line, they should also be contacted regarding the possible payoff of a loan. Keep in mind that there is no obligation for a lender to agree to a short sale.
For more information and resources on short sales please visit the Massachusetts Association of REALTORS® website at www.marealtor.com and click on "Online Training and Webinars." You can view a free one-hour webinar on short sales which includes many frequently asked questions by REALTORS®. On the website you can find more information about MAR's "Loss Mitigation Certification" course which focuses on short sales, REO sales, and auctions. Finally, visit www.realtor.org for the National Association of REALTORS® Short Sales "Field Guide."

Uncommon, Substantial Girl Names
We are set on a boy name but are still undecided for a girl. I prefer names that have a longer history of use and have never been really popular. Most of the names we're considering have been given to fewer than 50-75 girls in recent years. My daughter's given name is inspired by a civil rights activist so I would like some link to a person my future daughter could be proud to share a name with as well.

There may never be a better time to buy platinum, except when the price was lower. So it goes with all investments classes that are in a strong secular bull market, but especially with commodities in general at a time when the world seems to be running shortages.
Platinum is the Rarest of the Precious Metals
Platinum (Periodic Table symbol Pt), along with gold and silver, is in an undisputed long-term bull market. Called the "Rich Man's Gold," platinum is more rare than gold by a factor of 15 or more. It is the rarest of the precious metals. The reason for the value of platinum reaching such great heights is mostly due to its scarcity, but also due in part to its utility. Platinum is used in many industrial applications such as catalytic converters, computers, dental equipment, and even drugs for cancer treatment. But that is only part of platinum's many uses. Besides this half of platinum's applications, the other half is comprised of jewelry (about 40%) and platinum investments (10%).
Platinum vs. Gold
With the platinum vs. gold situation in terms of availability, platinum pales in comparison. Most of the gold that has been mined throughout the centuries is still in a well-preserved state (and used in decorative pieces, ornamentation, or jewelry), whereas if platinum (it is said) were to have its mining discontinued it would be completely gone in a year's time (except for that which has been saved/hoarded).
Some of the most well know platinum investment vehicles are the Platinum Eagle produced by the government mint, and platinum bars (platinum bullion). Platinum prices reached a climax in 2008, reaching over $2,000 per ounce! It then dipped down during the "credit crunch" as all asset classes slid south, eventually reaching parity with gold (talk about a perfect situation for buying on the dip). Platinum prices in the spot market are now fast approaching the $1,800 mark, while gold flirts with the $1,600 level.
Buy Platinum Now to Protect Your Purchasing Power and for a Potential Big Future Payoff
Platinum coins are a great store of value in times of inflation and government mismanagement. It is always a wise choice for the common investor to "get physical" by having a portion of his or her investment portfolio allocated to platinum coins or bullion, along with similar products in gold and silver. Diversifying is one of the tried and true successful investment strategies. Another method of buying platinum is through an up-and-coming favored investment equity called an ETF (Exchange Traded Fund). The Platinum ETF is a popular choice available on the NYSE (New York Stock Exchange) among those who have already have bought platinum and stockpiled as much as they are able to, or who prefer not to have to deal with the logistics of storing platinum. The Platinum ETF is set up to function as essentially mirroring the price of platinum, where each share is represents one-tenth of an ounce of platinum.
Platinum Outperforms the Market
Whether you want something that will appreciate in value over time as one of the current best investments, or as protection against a falling dollar, buying platinum is a prudent and potentially wealth-enhancing option, and has proven itself to outpace the stock market handily in returns during the last few years.

Proud Past Bright Future, by Chuck Lay is a historical look at MFA Incorporated's first 100 years. The book is a celebration of the contributions made by thousands of individuals. It reflects the history of agriculture and the nation as well. The beautiful 184 page book contains dozens of never-before-seen historic images. The book was proudly printed in Marceline, Missouri.
This year's annual meeting kicked off MFA's celebration for the upcoming 100th year. The business meeting convened at the Missouri State Fairgrounds in Sedalia and began with the National Anthem performed by the 2013 Miss Missouri, Shelby Ringdahl. Missouri Governor Jay Nixon and Senator Roy Blunt both spoke briefly to commend MFA. Chairman of the Board Don Mills and President/CEO Bill Streeter spoke at the event as well.

With some good detective work, FFA members have a chance at winning the MFA History Essay Contest. More than 1,000 Farm Clubs were formed in Missouri by 1919 as a result of the efforts of William Hirth. Hirth owned The Missouri Farmer and Breeder magazine and frequently urged farmers to organize and place group orders for farm supplies. Those farm clubs, in turn, organized into MFA stores, elevators, cold storage facilities, creameries, produce plants and livestock associations. Today's MFA developed as a result of this early activity. READ MORE HERE OFFICIAL RULES PAGE PRIMARY HISTORICAL RESOURCES

Corum Vintage Re-Releases: Round Golden Bridge Watch
The rest of the dial is black with vertical texturing, while the sloped flange ring is lined with triangular gold hour markers. The watch hands are stubby, but that is because of the movement. They can't be too heavy, and that petite movement can only take so much weight. The movement bridge/plate is nicely engraved, and I like the design of the case which visually continues on to the lugs. The watch is matched to a black crocodile strap, and is limited to just 75 pieces. So you ask, is it a man's watch or a woman's watch? In this case, that is up to you.

The Vineyard in Winter
Pulitzer Prize-winning author Geraldine Brooks delights in the allure of Martha's Vineyard's off-season
- By Geraldine Brooks
- Photographs by Paula Lerner
- Smithsonian magazine, February 2009, Subscribe
Here's what I love most about my town: its edges. In three directions, Vineyard Haven ends abruptly, as a town should, surrendering, gracefully and completely, to farms and fields and watery expanses of harbor and salt ponds. Within minutes, you can leave town behind and be lost on a woody trail, eye to eye with a ewe or out on the whitecaps with a sea gull.
Because of these edges and what lies beyond them, it smells good here. The breezes that blow through my kitchen window mostly carry briny scents, tangy with ocean. But when the wind shifts south, there might be rich dark smells of loam or hints of hay from newly mown fields. I love maritime things, so I also love the way it sounds here. On sultry summer nights, the foghorn from the West Chop Lighthouse lulls me to sleep with its low, rhythmic groan. In the morning, the three-blast warning from the departing high-speed ferry tells me it's 7:40, time to get to work. On still nights, with the bedroom windows open, I can hear the clink of the shrouds on the sailboats moored behind the breakwater.
If the island of Martha's Vineyard resembles a tricorn hat, Vineyard Haven is notched into the northern crease of its crown. It is not the oldest town here. (Edgartown, where the English first settled, is more venerable.) Nor is it the loveliest. (The gingerbread cottages of Oak Bluffs and the stone-walled, picket-fenced perfection of West Tisbury are more picturesque.) While the name "haven" these days conjures respite and idyll, for the hardy English colonists it meant simply "harbor," and replaced the even-more-to-the-point previous name penned on the earliest maps: Holms His Hole. The town, despite its tourist veneer, remains at heart a working harbor, a good, deep, sheltered place to dock a ferry, moor a boat. With its marine railways, corrugated-metal workshops and waterfront fuel-storage tanks, the town remains scruffy and scuffed, unmanicured. Real.
The island of Martha's Vineyard is two quite different places: summer and off-season, although those of us lucky enough to live here prefer to think of the demarcation differently: summer and secret season. Vineyard Haven, where the big white car ferries come and go, reflects this duality. In June, the cars coming off the ferry are stuffed with the paraphernalia of the summer house: extra blankets and cookware, kayaks on the roof racks and bikes lashed to the trunk. When I see these cars with their lumpy, bungee-corded extrusions, my heart lightens: summer's really here; good for the vacationers, I hope they have a lovely time. But by Labor Day, when the last laden cars line up to leave, I breathe the sigh of relief of the year-round resident. It's a sigh that ripples across the island like a collective exhalation.
In summer, the world is too much with us. Yes, it is quite fun to find yourself in line to buy leeks behind Jake Gyllenhaal or sitting down to dinner at the next table from Bill Clinton. But no one likes the traffic, the crowds, the sudden infusion of citified bustle and self-importance. There's an island bumper sticker that sums it up: Summer People, Some are Not!
After Labor Day, when the island is ours again, the volume drops as if someone's pressed the mute button. We don't have to wince at the car horn, sounded by some dolt unaware that island etiquette is to wait silently while the mom loads her kid into the car seat or her groceries into the trunk; while the two old geezers, cars abreast on a two-lane byway, pause to discuss last night's Red Sox game. You just wait. However...long...it...takes. There's a natural patience that comes from living on an island, where you learn that you're never totally in control of your schedule. Need to get to the mainland today? In this fog? Forget it.
Sometime in late September, the air turns cooler and the light changes with the lowering autumnal sun. Instead of summer's strong, buttery yellow light, there's a pale liquid radiance that pours slantwise across the bronzing salt marshes and kindles the crimsoning leaves of the beetlebung trees. In the early mornings, when I walk my dogs along the wrack line of the beach, the green twists of seaweed flare and glitter like strands of Christmas tinsel.
For me, raised up among friendly, laid-back Aussies and then dipped (for the decade we lived in rural Virginia) into the reflexive courtesies of the American South, it's been tough to adapt to the tight-lipped terseness of New Englanders. But I've been here long enough now to recognize it for what it is: Yankee thrift, a kind of prudent economy of expression. Just as no self-respecting Yankee would dream of wasting food or flaunting ostentatious wealth, few feel the necessity to waste words. So I've learned to get by without a lot of the social grease I used to need, because I now know that my neighbor who barely greets me day to day will be there in an instant if I ever really need him.

Geraldine is a treasure among us. Or perhaps I'm among her. Her year-roundness on the Vineyard predates mine . . . .

Your style of writing is so engaging. So glad I met you through this article on the Vineyard where my infrequent summer visits over the years have always been special. Supposedly, everyone has a double and your picture proved so to me although I am much older. Off to get some of your writings!

She gets lots of awards and tributes. Well deserved, et al. I have another tribute for her. It may be one I hope she holds dear now that she's a Vinyarder, and one above ground. I have now spotted her books on the shelves of sandy Summer beach houses here. There sit March, Nine Parts, and maybe Year of Wonders, among a pantheon of other fine, rumpled paperbacks that folks snuggle up with to make good a rainy Vineyard day. For me, it doesn't get much better than that.

We're the two men whose grave monument you so admire. Except for the fact that (to paraphrase Mark Twain), the report of our deaths is greatly exaggerated, the tenor of the entire article reinforces why we chose eventually to become "permanent residents" of the Vineyard, since we own no other property there. We have visited, even worked (at the Vineyard Theatre) on the island for many years. Like you, we prefer spring and autumn but it is an ever- surprising paradise any time of the year. We have traveled to many places, but we always come "home" to this wondrous isle.

As a fellow wash-a-shore year round Vineyarder, this article really captures the beauty I see out of my window right now as I type. The only problem is, now EVERYONE will want to see it :) I, too, cherish the calmer season that is everything outside of mid-June - mid-September but like most residents, I couldn't be here without all the 'Summer People'. They are my livelyhood and I LOVE the ying yang nature of the Vineyard. I too anticipate their arrival as I would the visit of a favorite aunt but also breath that little sigh of relief 3 months later when they go (also like a favorite relative). The beauty of this seasonality is that in summer there is no end of entertainment and fun, but in winter it's pot luck suppers and school plays - just as fun for everyone, just different. Thanks for capturing the wonder that is our 'other' season.

Sadly, the impression I was left with after reading Geraldine Brooks' article about Martha's Vineyard in The Smithsonian Magazine is that the "summer people" (as she calls "them") do not want to be a real part of the Vineyard community and may not be welcomed as such. How distressing and in my opinion incorrect. What I love about the Vineyard is that she is BOTH, "many communities AND one," at the same time. I am primarily a "summer person," though I spend many winter weekends on island and pay taxes. I love all the Vineyard has to offer- the history, the traditions, the walking trails, the commitment to the environment, the peacefulness, cultural activities, the cemeteries, the "hellos" wherever I walk, the commitment to "doing good" for society. And like many "summer people" I know we also are committed to protecting and preserving the Vineyard, just as the "year-rounders" I know are. I am not alone in spending much of my visiting time learning about the Island, participating in enriching her as much as I can, and joining in helping to raise money to support social service, health, cultural, religious, conservation organizations on the Island. For the Island to be what we all want her to be we must preserve the diversity of the island communities and simultaneously be one community. I have so enjoyed her books, and I hope I totally misread her point. Gerald Jones

I so enjoyed your article about your area. Your style of writing is so inviting and soothing. On my 5th Anniversary, I surprised my husband with a trip to "Martha's Vineyard" and it was a trip I will always cherish. We stayed in "OakBluff" but ventured out to several of the hidden spots you mentioned. It was always nice to find places where there weren't many people. You could really feel how special of a place it is and your words captured it perfectly. Thank you for bringing back so many good memories for me. Oh-we are about to have our 15th Anniversary. Maybe we'll return. Thank you for sharing. JC in Michigan

I have never been to Martha's Vinyard, but would love to visit. This scenario makes it even more inviting.
Posted by Nan Susan Hart on January 29,2009 | 03:43 PM
This is a comment to the author. As a summer visitor for more than 50 years to another island, Vinalhaven, Maine, I enjoyed your article very much. My sister has made the leap to be a full time resident there and speaks of the winter closeness of the people and how they look out for each other. You left me with a chuckle when you related the graveyard inscription: "At last, a year round resident." Those not born on Vinalhaven are known as "from away" even if the mother was required to take the ferry to "America" to give birth and come home with the baby shortly thereafter. Thank you. Enjoy your beautiful island. V. Paul

Error using Seagate disc wizard(acronis), to partition the 320 gb disk: ST3320620AS.
The supplied, Seagate Diskwizard, does not recognize any Seagate disk installed.
Error- "System should have at least one Seagate or Maxtor device in order to function.:"
My previous DiscWizard for windows, as well as win XP, can see and initialize the disk. But I need to partition the disk for Linux and NTFS. Unable to do so. I am trying to do using the supplied seagate discwizard(acronis).
I have already tried uninstalling the previous version of DiscWizard, still does not work-
SeaTools s/w recognizes and passes the disk as OK, along with other Seagate disks on the m/c.
Tried contacting support, they keep e-mailing an auto-response –

I have the same problem with a ST3320620AS drive! When connected to my notebook in a USB case, it is not recognized by Diskwizard. I tried with two different USB cases on 2 different computers. I even downloaded re-installed Diskwizard just to make sure I had the latest version.
1. I was able to access the drive with Diskwizard by connecting directly to my Desktop's SATA connectors. I formatted it that way.
2. I then put drive back in USB case and hooked to notebook. Drive was available as 'Drive E' and I could read & write files to it with Win Explorer, but Diskwizard could not recognize it. (I did see it find 'Drive E' and scan it before giving me the no Seagate drive error message.)
3. Made a Diskwizard bootable CD - this too failed to recognize the drive.
So - what is next?? I want top transfer everything from my nearly full notebook drive to the new Seagate drive.
Had the same problem - disk wizard can't see a Seagate drive in the USB enclosure.
I was already staring to think about just using a bootable GNU-Linux CD, partitioning and
then just dd the raw partitions etc, but:
The solution is implied in the documentation - a Seagate drive must be in the system.
1. Make sure to install the bootable media creation feature.
2. Create a bootable disk wizard CD.
3. install current HD in USB enclosure.
4. Install new Seagate HD in system.
5. Boot from CD and clone away.
The cloning process is very flexible. Have fun!
I had the same problem but Downloaded a free tool called MiniTool from Partitionmagic and it worked great and simple. http://www.partitionwizard.com/free-partition-mana

How to Get the Best Computer Services in Sheridan, OR
If you've ever had a computer you already know how important finding the right computer service really is. Computers are constantly evolving, improving and, unfortunately, running into problems. Whether you're setting up a new network or trying to keep an older system installed and operating, one thing is certain. Eventually computer services will likely be required.
What Type of Computer Services Do You Need?
Computers are complex items that need a fair amount of updating, installing and fixing. Before you can get your computer running smoothly you have to decide which type of computer service in Sheridan will suit your needs best.
Computer repair services – Computers are a great convenience but when they require repair it can make life almost impossible. If you've ever had a computer needing repair you already know how important finding the right computer repair service really is. Computer repair services can fix just about any issue you're having and can be done remotely or on site.
On site computer service – On site computer services refer to times when a technician must come to your home or business to work on your computer. This is commonly needed if you have a hardware issue or computer systems are being set up.
Computer network services – When you have or want to set up multiple computers that are connected to share information and communicate on a network then computer network services will likely be needed.
Computer consulting services – Many of those who call themselves computer consultants specialize in computer programming and systems administration. Some computer consultants work as full-time employees for various companies while others work independently for hire on short-term jobs. People who own businesses and computer networks in Sheridan are more inclined to need computer consulting services.
Choosing a Computer Service Technician in Sheridan
Sheridan computer service technicians help people with all sorts of technical issues and needs. Computer service technicians can work on hardware and software and also work to set up installations or make repairs on existing systems.
As you can imagine, computer technicians in Sheridan, OR can either be highly specialized in one sort of service or be knowledgeable in many different computer-related topics. Regardless, any computer service technician you use should have certifications that prove they are knowledgeable enough to meet your requirements. Ask the computer service technician to produce evidence of their certifications, education and experience.
If you use an established company rather than an independent Sheridan computer service technician they will have already done this for you. They may also guarantee their work and merchandise which safeguards you from needing to pay for another computer service technician if the first one can't complete the job.

MADISON, Wis. -- As part of its 2012-13 non-conference schedule, the Wisconsin men's basketball team will be participating in the 12th-Annual Continental Tire Las Vegas Invitational on Nov. 23 and 24. In addition to the Badgers, this year's field includes Creighton, Arkansas and Arizona State.
Wisconsin will play a total of four games as part of the Las Vegas Invitational, with two coming at the Kohl Center before the final two rounds at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas.
Donors to the Wisconsin Athletic Department and Wisconsin men's basketball season ticket holders can request tickets through 4:30 p.m. on Thursday, May 17, online at UWBadgers.com or by calling the Wisconsin ticket office at 1-800-GO BADGERS.
General public can also purchase tickets beginning Saturday, May 19, by calling the Box Office at the Orleans Arena (702) 284-7777, or on the web at www.orleansarena.com.
UNLV took home the 2011 Las Vegas Invitational title, besting North Carolina in the finals. Last season, Wisconsin won the Chicago Invitational Challenge over Thanksgiving weekend. Over the last five seasons, the Badgers have spent Thanksgiving at the Paradise Jam (St. Thomas, 2008), the Maui Invitational (2009), the Old Spice Classic (Orlando, Fla., 2010) and the Chicago Invitational Challenge (2011).
Wisconsin is coming off a 26-win season and its third Sweet 16 appearance in the last five years. The Badgers will look to replace All-American Jordan Taylor in 2012-13, but return four of five starters from last year's squad and over 70 percent of the team's scoring. The all-time wins leader at Wisconsin, Bo Ryan will enter his 12th season with the Badgers owning a record of 268-101 (.726).
Creighton finished the 2011-12 campaign ranked 21st in the AP poll after tying a school-record for wins in a 29-6 season. The Bluejays will return nine of their top 10 scorers from that squad, including first-team All-American and Naismith Player of the Year finalist Doug McDermott (22.9 ppg., 8.2 rpg.).
Arkansas will enter its second season under head coach Mike Anderson after going 18-14 last year with signature wins over three ranked teams, including Vanderbilt, Mississippi State and Michigan. The Razorbacks return 77 percent of their scoring and 73 percent of their rebounding from a year ago, as well as second-team All-SEC guard BJ Young.
Arizona State, one of just nine schools in the country without a senior on its roster, is coming off a 10-21 season in 2011-12. Led by 2009-10 Pac-10 Coach of the Year Herb Sendek, the Sun Devils figure to be led by Carrick Felix (10.5 ppg) and 7-foot-2 center Jordan Bachynski (6.0 ppg, 4.0 rpg).

Historic villages and markets
Quaint tearooms, bustling markets and a very old cricket pitch
eace, quiet and people who talk to you. Yes, there's a lot to like about English villages. Take yourself up the railway track from almost any English city and you'll find yourself transported into a different world. A Medieval world to be precise.
In Amberley , West Sussex, thatched roofs come as standard. As do winding, cobbled paths and pints full of frothy local ale. In fact, a quick glance is enough to tell you that this English village's priorities are definitely in the right place – with two pubs and one shop. For all its tranquility, however, life's far from dull: there's Morris dancing in summer and the nearby Amberley Wild Brooks are great for a wander (just don't forget your Wellies).
Next door in Kent, pretty villages are two a penny: Penshurst boasts a quaint tearoom and one of the oldest cricket pitches in the country; while nearby Otford is famous for its duck pond – right in the middle of the village roundabout actually.
But to be honest, you've not really experienced English country life until you've seen the bustle and excitement of market day. Indeed, English market towns are often historical places to visit in their own right, like Framlingham in Suffolk – or 'Fram' as locals call it. Come here on Tuesdays and Saturdays and you can buy delicious fresh fish and veg' from the market in the main square, just a short walk from the Norman castle.
Whizz over to Gloucestershire, meanwhile, and you'll find specialities including shiitake mushroom-growing kits and smoked garlic (don't knock it til you've tried it) at Stroud Farmers' Market on Thursdays. And, where better to buy original Yorkshire tea than in the Dales themselves? Head to Appleby's indoor market on Fridays and you'll see what we mean. Ahh, that's better.

Washington, DC Friday, June 1, 2012
A House Natural Resources Subcommittee looks at the E.P.A.'s efforts to halt a previously approved coal mining project in Logan County, West Virginia. The agency says the project will jeopardize the health of Appalachian communities and pollute its waters. In March of this year, a U.S. District Court Judge rebuked the E.P.A.'s efforts, saying the agency was overstepping its authority and using "magical thinking" to do so. The Obama administration is now appealing that decision.
In January 2011, the EPA revoked a permit issued by the Army Corps of Engineers, citing provisions of the Clean Water Act that allow it to reject previously issued permits if a project threatens permanent damage to communities and water supplies. Under the Spruce Mine permit, operator Mingo Logan Coal Company would have buried over six miles of streams in Logan County, West Virginia.
In March 2012, U.S. District Court Judge Amy Berman Jackson rejected the EPA's decision, declaring that the agency overstepped it's authority. In May, the EPA announced that it would appeal the judge's decision.
Opponents of mountaintop removal mining rallied around the EPA's decision to appeal. Environmental groups, including Earthjustice and the Sierra Club, issued a statement saying they were "heartened" by the agency's commitment to enforce the Clean Water Act.
Mine supporters claim that the EPA is systematically targeting West Virginia's mining industry. They also allege that EPA policies are threatening American industries, from manufacturing and home construction to farming, by creating uncertainty over the clean water permit process.
Witnesses at today's hearing include: State Senator Art Kirkedoll, West Virginia; Ms. Karen Harbert , President & CEO, Institute for 21st Century Energy, US Chamber of Commerce; Mr. Ross Eisenberg, National Association of Manufacturers, VP, Energy and Resources Policy; and Ms. Maria Gunnoe, Boone Co WV Organizer, Ohio Valley Environmental Coalition.
