Back in Albuquerque
NOB HILL--I have been back for a month. Nevermind asking why there have been no posts. I'm not sure.
I guess I decided that some things don't seem to fit anywhere else except here or on Albloggerque. The trouble with Albloggerque is that it doesn't seem to work with the feeds on the Duke City Fix. So I am expanding JohnnyTransAmerica to include things besides the bike trip.
I will write about the trip as well...after all, I do have 99 days of memories and over 800 pictures to sort through.
Meanwhile, here is me getting back in town. I was so happy to see MaryAnn! She looked even better than I had remembered, however impossible that seemed to me.
Notice that full head of hair! My hair was long when I started the trip and never got it cut. Also, the big smile. Happy me.

The Original Tail Angel: The Cookie Lady
TROUTVILLE, VA--Two days ago, climbing up the Blue Ridge Mountains, at the very top of a very steep hill, we came upon the house of June Curry...The Cookie Lady.
Her hospitality to Transam bikers started the whole 'Trail Angel' phenomenon. Well, she is in ill health and no longer passes out cookies to the bike travelers as she has done since 1976. She no longer has lodging for weary cyclists either.
But the sign is still there. And we were certainly ready for a break when we reached her hilltop house in Afton, Virginia. Jerry and Lynne were riding with us. We stopped for a while and wished we could have met this legend of the trail.
Her bike house is full of 30 years of memorabilia from the trail. We rested outside and thought about her 30 years of greeting people just like us. However, the afternoon was waning and we had to ride on. Good luck...June Curry. From all of us.

Four More Nights in Virginia
CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA--Mike and I are sittin in the Hampton Inn tonight. And I am trying to work fast on this laptop because of a mistake I made several days ago. I forgot the power supply cord for my MacBook in the motel room in Williamsburg. Fortunately, I had their phone number and they are going to send it to MaryAnn back in ABQ. She'll have to figure out how to get it to me.
Meanwhile I am lugging the machine around and using it sparingly. I have 70% power left as of right now.
The first night we got to the Glendale Methodist Church, 41 miles or so from Williamsburg. Our information said they were willing to put up cyclists. What wonderful people.
Mike and I slept in the Sunday School building along with a couple on a tandem. Katie and Chris were from Milwaukee. She used to be an editor for the Milwaukee Journal. Anyway, they were planning on doing 80 miles a day...so we won't be seeing much of them!
The next night was in a private campground near Ashland, Americamp. It had an airport on one side, a sawmill on another, and the freeway on a third. Not only that, it was pretty difficult to find. Nevertheless, Mike and I did strike up an acquaintance with a ten-year-old who hung around most of the day. Finally we asked, "Why aren't you in school?" The answer was in one word, "Homeschooled."
There was nobody around during the day to even watch out for him. He lived in a 5th-wheel with 4 or 5 men who were all gone working until suppertime.
The next night we rolled into Mineral after a pretty hard day in the saddle. I had got us lost a couple of times following 3-digit route numbers until I couldn't even remember my own phone number.
We rode up to the Mineral Volunteer Fire Dept. and said, "We hear you have a place for cyclists who need a place to put up a tent." One of the chiefs, Delbert, said,
"Not tonight, we've got a carnival all set up on the lawn. You'll have to sleep in the firehouse." So we did. Showers. TV. Internet. Really fine people. We went across the street and had a truly excellent pulled pork sandwich for supper.
We were out of there by about 7:30 as we have been every morning so far. Coming out of Mineral we took a shorter route than the Adventure Cycling map shows. It had a LOT of traffic, but it cut out 15 miles. The Hampton Inn has a shuttle service and we took it out to Montecello
this afternoon and toured the building and grounds. We called and the driver, Renee, picked us up and drove us downtown to a central street to eat. The street had be turned into a pedestrian mall. It was fabulous. We picked out a restaurant with tables in the shade and sat down for a great meal.
Then who showed up walking down the street but Jerry and Lynne, the couple I had photographed in Yorktown. They were doing fine except for Lynne's allergies. Anyway, we had a fine time sharing road stories and left hoping to see each other again down the road.

Trail Angel
Williamsburg to Glendale, VA
We started out around 7:30 AM from the Super 8. Jon had been there so long the staff cried. I gave Linda my bag that I used to bring miscellaneous items on the plane. She said she really needed a bag just like that. As we scooted out of town the mist was rising of of the grass and gave us a strange sensation of being surrounded by battles and ghosts of regiments who fought in the Revolutionary War and the Civil War. Jon keeps up with the history of the area and we stop frequently to honor the monuments to those who were killed on both sides.
Jon got his first flat tire. The only time I got wild and crazy and passed him he got a flat. I am waiting at the convenient store about a mile past him when a young rider from the AC group stopped and told me of Jon's dificulty. I figured by the time I got back to Jon he would be ready for an ice-cream. I managed to get back before it turned out to be an ice-cream float. He had fixed his flat on the rear tire and was ready for the treat. It wasn't long before we were safe at the Glendale Methodist Church. The caretaker graciously allowed us to use the building behind there church to crash in. Not a bad crash it even had refrigerated air conditioning. We shared the place with Katie and Chris who were riding across American on a Tandem.
I would like to thank Gail again for guiding us through the bike path and pointing out the special sites. Jon and I have always met special people in our travels and Gail is certainly in the top ten "Trail Angels"

The Real Day #1
WILLIAMSBURG, VA--Today we rode over to Yorktown to dip our wheels ceremoniously in the York River. We stopped and talked with a member of Blackbeard's Crew for a while...primarily discussing the world flint shortage. With that out of the way we ate breakfast at the Duke of York. A loaded cyclist stopped there while we were eating. He said he was with the Adventure Cycling Transamerica group. They are leaving today also for Williamsburg.
I am sure we will encounter him again. We rode by the rest of the AC group near the Victory Center...about half a dozen of them. Maybe we won't see them again. Maybe they'll get a few days ahead of us and we'll never really meet up.
I actually rode to Yorktown last Tuesday. I met Jerry and Lynne Lisenby on Main St. They were staying at the Grace Episcopal bike hostel in Yorktown and were riding down to dip their wheels. They asked if I would take their pictures. Of course I said "yes." They turned out to be from Peoria, Illinois.
Jerry is one of America's biggest losers...from the TV show, that is. He has lost somewhere around 130 pounds. He is pretty famous. His wife Lynne is in charge of mental health services at the Peoria Children's Home. They are riding to raise money for the Home.
Later in the day I ran into Todd Morrison from Portland, Oregon. He is riding from the D.C. area up to Pittsburg on a series of canal and rail trails. I believe he said it was a 400 mile trip and almost all of it is on dedicated bike paths.
The first thing he did when we met was to enter my cell number in his phone. We both wandered around for a good part of the afternoon in different directions. Then he called me up and gave me a ride back to Williamsburg in his rented van. Nice.
Mike and I didn't have that option. But it was such a beautiful ride on the Colonial Parkway that the miles flew by.
Tomorrow: Glendale, 50 miles, camping at a church.
Today's Handlebar Statistics
Distance: 32 miles

Williamsburg Cab Ride
Friday, May 2nd
We always start out very precise. You will note by the 10th or 15th day notation of the day and date will be less than consistent. Anyway, I have arrived in Williamsburg, Virginia. Let me tell you the hour long cab ride was worth the experience. The cabby was from Nigeria and half the time he was on the phone with his friends or family speaking something incomprehensible to this westerner's ear. Even though he assured me that English was the national language in Nigeria. Non the less I pestered him relentlessly in the journalistic manner that many I meet have learned to detest. I mentioned that I would like to bike in Africa and his response was that I would be Lion Bait. He emphasized that it wasn't anything personal, that any westerner is considered less than desirable company but good revenue for the local bandits and robbers. He had lived in the States for greater than 6 years and had a family that were completely westernized. Due to the wild agility of his driving habits, I believe he must have had some sort of standing appointment that he needed to be at. He seemed to be apologizing to someone on the phone for being late. Needless to say he was becoming more and more agitated that we were not finding the bicycle shop sooner rather than later. He was just as happy to let me out of the cab as I was to see "Bikes Unlimited" As quickly as I paid him he was off. Spinning a U turn almost quick enough to catch me crossing the street. All kidding aside he was very friendly and tried patiently to answer the repetitive bombardment of questions that I shot at him.
Once at the bike shop I assembled and hooked up my trailer Barry had done a excellent job of reassembling my bike and tuning it up. I rode from Scotland Road down Richmond Ave to the Supper 8 where Jon was waiting. I had called him from the bike shop and he met me in the parking lot. We were both very glad to see each other. The hotel was across from a local shopping center where we grabbed dinner at Sal's Italian restaurant, picked up some necessary hardware items and visited the bookstore. As we walked back to our hotel the sidewalk was becoming crowed with local visitors who were out for a stroll on this Friday evening.

Mike Shows Up in Williamsburg
WILLIAMSBURG, VA--Mike Moye, intrepid as ever, rode up Richmond Ave. this afternoon straight to the Super 8 Motel where we are staying. We worked on our bikes for a while...made some equipment adjustments and repacked a few items. He brought my MacBook with him.
I still can't get all the software working on it. I used to have IPhoto and now can't find it. I'll try to use Preview and Image Capture to bring up the visual highlights until I figure things out more fully.
Tomorrow Mike and I ride to Yorktown to dip our wheels in the York River to officially start the beginning of the Transamerica ride. We will then return to Williamsburg, spending the night in our motel room before heading west through Jamestown, Charles City, and Glendale. There is supposed to be an Adventure Cycling group starting out tomorrow as well.
Tonight we went out to eat at Sal's across the street. That makes 3 times in 5 days I have eaten supper there. Baked Ziti, Eggplant Relatoni(?), and Chicken Victor. Damned good! Of course, eating with Mike, the spumoni was the highlight of the meal.

Tornado Alley
I called Jon today and he said to bring a kite. The wind is incredible and if we catch it soon we'll be in Kansas in no time. Rather than taking a chance and camping out Jon opted for the safety and security of the Days Inn. He said it rained most of the night and continued to sprinkle off and on today. He also mentioned that the weather is unpreditable. I'm sure the local Virginia meteorologist agree. The last tornado to hit Virginia was more than twenty years ago. I hope Virginia get this all out of it's system before I arrive. Jon said these comforting words before he hung up, "Don't forget your coat, there are frost warnings tonight"

Today is Sunday the 27
of April. Next Saturday Jon and I will begin his trek from
, Virginia to Astoria, Oregon. An adventure that has been a dream of ours for several years. We began our journey more than six years ago, on a whim, to try and ride across New Mexico from West to East. We traveled through towns with names like
, Pie Town,
, Magdalena. Through old trails like
where the only refuge was a town named
with two buildings; one was a magazine editor, and the other a rock salesman. The journey lasted nearly ten days and we covered over 550 miles. Little did we know at that time where our bikes would eventually take us. Since then we have ,over the course of the last 5 years, traveled roads paralleling the continental divide from Mexico to Jasper Canada. The multitudes of sites and friends we met along the way will always be a special part of our lives.
Next week Jon is undertaking what to some may seem an insurmountable task of crossing these United States. I am honored to join him for his first 500 miles. Anticipation by Merriam-Webster is "a prior action that takes into account or forestalls a later action; the act of looking forward". If I did not anticipate then half the experience of the the journey would be lost. Anticipation gives us an opportunity to develop in our minds the cans and can
of the future. Therefore we attempt to anticipate any outcome that may be before us on this journey. But we also must be flexible, able to yield to unknown influence and adapt to change.
Riding requires an application of concentration
matched by any other mode of transportation. First of all you must pack everything you may need to make the journey safe and possible, without packing so much that you are overweight. You must know your way without fault. Every wrong turn only adds anguish and consternation to a long day in the saddle. Planning includes clothing for any
seen change in the weather. You must maintain balance on your bike and in your mind. Wondering minds can bring you to undesirable destinations and wasted time. Fatigue will bring you to your knees. But proper attitude will allow you to enjoy the change and be flexible enough to adapt.
Someone once asked my how we could ride 50, 60, 80 miles a day and I explained that we don't think of it as a long ride but rather sever short rides in one day. We ride ten miles over and over. Every stop is a new view and a new adventure; remember "time is but a moving thing" and Jon will be pushing time from shore to shore. I am anticipating a great trip and Jon has the ability and flexibility to make it happen. I wish him good luck but I know he doesn't need it because he has anticipated this trip for years and he has the ability to adapt.

Training Totals for March
NOB HILL, ABQ--Here at the total number of miles logged during March. Various amounts of weight were carried...usually about 20 pounds.
Week One: 107 mi.
Week Two: 133 mi.
Week Three: 157 mi.
Week Four: 149 mi.
No injuries to report. Bike was gone over by Jeff at
Two-Wheel Drive
. He replaced all cables, re-packed the bottom bracket and hubs, trued wheels, replaced the chain. It is so important to me to have only one person working on the bike. And Jeff works on it as if he were taking the trip himself.
Charlie, the owner, and Jeff are in my corner. Thanks.

Video: MaryAnn Tries Riding Into a 50 mph Headwind
BOSQUE BIKE PATH--It was good weather when we started out last Sunday. We rode the 10 miles north to the Corrales bridge easily. Oh...in fact it got easier and easier!
You know what that means...a tail wind had crept up on us. Well, coming back south was a different story. The winds howled at up to 50 mph. And they were straight out of the south.
Dust. Galloping tumbleweeds. Hard pedaling. I had a hard time convincing MaryAnn this was fun! It took almost 2 hours to get back to the car.

He Wore His Brand New Jersey
NOB HILL--In what may be regarded as a sign of over-confidence, I ordered a new bike jersey from
Adventure Cycling Assoc.
It reads "TRANSAMERICA" across the front. The back has a big waving U.S. flag.
Now what would possess me to start off a 4200 mile bicycle trip across the U.S. wearing a shirt that indicates the trip is a done deal, a snap, and finishing is a certainty...just keep
those pedals moving?
Actually, I am anything BUT confident. After all, I am a 65-year-old asthmatic with a bad ankle and dangerously delicate knees. And the biggest worry of all is
that for most of the trip I will be riding solo. My friend Mike can only ride the first 500 miles or so with me.
Here is the story: the shirt is part of my bargain with destiny. It is my way of acknowledging all the risks and hardships that might stop me, and still I announce my intent. I do not take this trip lightly. The new jersey is my way of coming to grips with all that might befall me.

Training for the Big One
NOB HILL, ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO--I have been training for the last 4 weeks. I started pretty much at zero. Here are the mileage totals so far:
Week #1: Feb. 17th, 90 miles
Week #2: Feb. 24th, 106 miles
Week #3: Mar. 2, 107 miles
Week #4: Mar. 9, 133 miles
The goal from here on out it to increase the mileage by 20 miles per week until the last week. That week is not totally certain, but I am planning on leaving someplace around April 20th. So that gives me 4 weeks to get ready!
I am riding the bike I plan on taking cross country, a Gary Fisher Tassajara. Yes, this is a mountain bike. I am training with heavy, fat tires and carrying two bags and half a gallon of water. I'm not sure what this all weighs, but the whole thing rides like I'm trying to pedal a pickup truck.

Johnny Transamerica
This is the journal of a transamerica bicycle trip. Jon Knudsen (aka Johnny_Mango) intends to ride the 4200 miles or so from Yorktown, Virginia to Astoria, Oregon. His buddy and riding partner on a multitude of bike adventures is Mike (Mike Biker) Moye. Mike can't leave his accounting business for 3 months to do the trip. Nevertheless, he is helping get Johnny started off on the right foot, or pedal, by riding the first 500 miles or so with him. Then that rascal Johnny will be on his own.

Caroline Wozniacki takes a tee shot for her boyfriend Rory McIlroy during the festivities to open the Masters. Results were not awesome.
|Rory McIlroy and Caroline Wozniacki
Joe DiMaggio and Marilyn Monroe they are not. The famous old ball player and movie star were an all-star couple with a dramatic, star glazed quality that we couldn't resist. Rory McIlroy and Caroline Wozniacki? What can you say, really, bar, Jokin' Joe and Marilyn will not be challenged for 'athlete couple of all time' for some time yet.
Nevertheless, Rory and Caroline are being gleefully rammed down our collective throats at every possible occasion. Thankfully, we still get a chance to laugh at their antics on occasion, perhaps unintentionally, and definitely not as planned out in advance by their seemingly rabid PR teams.
This week in the Masters par 3 tournament Rory McIlroy and his playing partner Graeme McDowell played the course with their respective lady friends as their caddies. Rory even let Caroline have a shot. Let's have a look at how that went.
Perhaps Caroline should stick to tennis, for now anyway. Notice how the divot went further than the 'tee shot'?
It is just as well McIlroy is not superstitious, and he won't take this epic tee shot fail into the tournament proper with him as mental baggage. It is as well McIlroy is rock solid mentally, and completely unlikely to do anything crazy like, for example, walk off the course in the middle of the back nine.
Oh, wait....

Comedian Mike Birbiglia brings his hilarious semi-autobiographical story—already an off-Broadway smash and a best-selling book—to the screen as writer/director/star in his cinematic debut. Occasionally commenting ruefully on the action ("Remember: you're on my side!"), Birbiglia plays alter-ego Matt Pandamiglio, a struggling stand-up comedian avoiding commitment with his long-time girlfriend (Lauren Ambrose, "Six Feet Under") who is becoming impatient. Unable to confront his anxieties, Matt finds them manifesting in ridiculous, dangerous and surreal bouts of sleepwalking in which his sub-conscious runs wild (he fights off a jackal attack, competes in the Dustbuster Olympics). With the help of a doubtful talent agent he goes on the road to little colleges and dive bars, where his material bombs until he stumbles into some revealing jokes about his relationship. Birbiglia's self-deprecating persona makes for a fresh, appealing and very funny film. Co-starring Carol Kane and James Rebhorn, with cameos by members of today's stand-up scene. Co-written and produced by Ira Glass ("This American Life"). Official Web Site
Mike Birbiglia
Mike Birbiglia, Lauren Ambrose, Carol Kane, James Rebhorn, Cristin Milioti, Kristen Schaal, Marc Maron, Wyatt Cenac, David Wain, Loudon Wainwright III

The leaves are beginning to show their beautiful fall colors, boats are being winterized, and local boatyards are busy hauling boats for the winter season. An unaware reader may think that the sailing community is about to go into hibernation - and many sailing spouses may secretly hold out hope that their "to do" lists may finally get some attention. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news - but that list may have to wait, as our sailing friends are already quite busy. The Frostbite Fleet was out last Sunday for a try-out day, foregoing attendance at the Annual Moosehead Awards (which will be reported on next week) to introduce prospective sailors to the fine art of sailing in cold, damp, windy weather. For many of us who are advocates of winter sailing, there is nothing quite like being on Manhasset Bay in 30 degree weather in small dinghies. Maybe it's the thrill of a small boat racing downwind in good breeze, or the challenge of keeping the boat flat as one rounds a mark. Or maybe because it feels so good to get back on land and have some hot cocoa at the clubhouse. But ask any frostbiter and you will find out that cold weather sailing is some of the best, and most competitive sailing of the year. The Interclub Dinghy Frostbite Class website described the sport, "The Interclub Dinghy Frostbite class, originally envisioned as a class for Inter-Club racing on Long Island Sound, attracts some of the best sailors from a variety of other 'summer' classes and provide great short course sailing on Sunday afternoons in the Northeast. Frostbiting an InterClub is a funny sport. People often ask, 'why should I get into a small dinghy in the winter when I can sail a PHRF boat or sit at home and watch football?' Then they try it and find out that IC sailing is a blast! The boats are fun to sail, tack and jibe on a dime, and require real sill to drive. Crews soon discover the importance of team work and instinctive reaction." As in the past, IC dinghies will be sailed and there is some discussion of adding the Ideal 18s to the fleet. The season should be fun, and the Race Committee (who eat particularly well on Kraus' Kastle) and frostbiters look forward to another good season of sailing on Manhasset Bay.
Many institutions take pride in entertaining their members with hilarious stories, most of which have stretched the truth a bit to emphasize a particularly funny anecdote. The Storm Trysail Club comes to mind, as do those esteemed committee members of the Moosehead Awards, to say nothing of the high jinx during the Annual Frostbite Meeting held on New Years day. Well, move over, fellas! The Women's Racing Clinic (WRC), that group of ladies who race all summer, and do things like have a mother-daughter sail, seminars to teach racing rules, make plans for warm weather get-aways, also know how to have a good time. This year, the 5th Annual Halloween Party was held at Manhasset Bay YC on Thursday, Oct. 27, and all the clubs on the bay and Sea Cliff sent witches and other such scary people - to celebrate the holiday in a fitting manner. There was fortune - telling, costume judging, coven elections and wicked awards were presented, with the best saved for last. Stephanie Baas, as head Women's Racing Coven, ably supported by Vice Coven Cindy Jordan, conferred the "big enchilada" to fellow sailor-coven Pam Prokop. The description, in part, of the lengths Ms. Prokop had to go to receive this prestigious award: "And finally we come to our last award of this year's Halloween Coven gathering. It is especially gratifying for one of our members to achieve greatness in the muggle world. The MBO has been around for more than 75 years. A number of noteworthy sailors have passed through the class. Our witch took over the helming of the family MBO when her warlock husband was incapacitated. Great thing happened. During Race Week, it appeared at first that she might win the class, but alas, it was not to be. But her second place was great accomplishment in this competitive class. It was good enough for her to win the prize for top female skipper in Race Week. But wait - it seems Pam's MBO exploits go beyond her racing prowess. Pam took it upon herself to test the limits of the MBO. On a breezy afternoon she showed that a swamped MBO will not sink if she has the proper floatation. For that we award Pam a bailing cauldron to be used by her warlock crew next time she tests an MBO's stability. Not done yet.... Pam's racing success is caused because she is a fierce competitor as befits a coven member. How fierce you ask? As fierce as they come! There was a race this summer when one of her competitors dared to challenge her for room at an obstruction. Pam sensing a weakness in her rival put her boom in his cockpit and wrapped the mainsheet around his crew's neck. Yes, Pam, take no prisoners. For this fierceness we award Pam Prokop the Enchanted Scinutar - a single stroke and that mainsheet impediment is eliminated. We hereby find Pam the Outstanding Witch of 2005 and give her a 2005 Firebolt - the fastest broom in the fleet." To see photos of the fun event, go to www.manhassetbayyc.org
And now for a more serious note: The people over in Bermuda get it right. During the King Edward VII Gold Cup, junior sailors were invited to compete in their own regatta. Junior Optimist skippers from eight guest nations and Bermuda sailed in the Renaissance Reinsurance Junior Gold Cup Optimist Regatta as part of the weeklong festivities surrounding the Investors Guaranty presentation of the King Edward VII Gold Cup. Joining 28 local Bermuda Junior Optimist sailors this year are Philip Autenrieth, Germany; Claire Bethez, France; George Kool, New Zealand; Tina Lutz, Germany (World Champion); Sean Moynahan, USA; Sacha Pelisson, France; Kevin Peponnet, France; Matthew Rainback, UK; Matthew Schoener Smith, Trinidad; Mark Whittington, Australia; Daniela Zimmerman, Peru; Stephanie Zimmerman, Peru. It's nice to see at least one competitor from the United States. Wouldn't it be nice if some of the Regatta Chairs would plan to include some of our junior sailors? Think of the benefits - to both the juniors and the regatta participants. Just imagine being a junior and have the opportunity to rub elbows with "sailing stars." It seems like a "win-win", so why haven't more U.S. regattas done this? Might be a good idea for next year - right here in Manhasset Bay!

Unoriginals be warned: Ultra Pulverize takes no prisoners
Blame it on Glamor. With a capital G.Glamor Hornsby is an ex-Nintendo champion who, along with pal Bobby Jewell, aka Ultra Pulverize, was a member of the U.S. National Video Game Team.Jewell and Hornsby shared a common love for gaming, but Glamor took his role more seriously than Jewell, who fancied himself a be-all, end-all ladies' man. One day, Jewell vanished, never to be heard from again. Or did he?This is but a piece of the origin of Ultra Pulverize — the band, not the player. Part kraut rock, part techno and part hip-hop, the team of Tony Robot, Ultra and Korgenbutz have turned what was inspired by these fictitious characters into a three-headed extension of their Nintendo- and Sega-influenced imaginations.The three had never been in a band, but in Halloween 2004, they were out in front of fans with costumes, a drum machine and a mission. This week they celebrate the release of Unoriginals Get The Dose, their new offering that's sure to expose you to the wonders of finger-tapping, to say nothing of Dracula-driven, black Chrysler Concordes.LEO: So, about those costumes?Ultra Pulverize: Most everyone wears a costume when they go out into society. Ours just happen to be cooler and more futuristic. We outgrew the old costumes, so it was time for an upgrade.LEO: What do you guys do in your free time?UP: We like to search the alligator pit at the zoo after-hours, collecting the pennies that accumulate down there. We actually financed the new album entirely in this way. So I guess those pennies were good luck for somebody after all. Besides that, we pretty much sit and listen to Jermaine Jackson's "Escape from the Planet of the Ant Men" on repeat.LEO: How is this album different from 2005's Gorillas in the Fist?UP: The new album has a lot more variety of sounds. We also put more thought into pacing it out, allowing the songs to either breathe or flow together with interludes. It's fun to listen to as one piece. If Gorillas in the Fist was Ridley Scott's "Alien," then Unoriginals Get The Dose is James Cameron's "Aliens" — relentless and vicious in an electronic way.LEO: Your influences?UP: Nintendo and Sega music is probably the biggest influence on our band, considering the insane amount of hours the three of us spent playing when we were younger. Some others include digestion trouble, love, miscommunication, sweat, day jobs and curb-turd alerts.

Maurice Jones-Drew has been a fantasy football favorite over the past few years, as his excellent play on the field and his affinity for fantasy football has stuck a cord with most owners across the country. MJD loves to play fantasy football himself, and he understands the importance of the game to the overall success of the NFL.
In two seasons as a starter with the Jacksonville Jaguars, Jones-Drew has delivered consecutive 1300 yard seasons, including a career best 1391 yards and 16 total touchdowns in 2009. His 2010 season was cut short to only 14 due to a nagging knee injury, forcing Jones-Drew to undergo surgery over the off-season.
Despite his excellent production as a starting running back for the Jags, fantasy owners in general have been low on MJD this season. As of the date of publication, Jones-Drew has an average draft position of 13th overall on www.fantasyfootballcalculator.com, his lowest ADP as a starter. It is apparent from this data that owners do not believe that MJD has fully recovered from his knee injury, and his alleged bone-on-bone knee issues will limit his production this season.
Knee injuries for running backs are certainly a concern; however I believe that owners passing on MJD in the latter stages of the first round are making a mistake. MJD is only 26 years old and has relatively low mileage on his legs due to his time-share with Fred Taylor over the first three seasons of his career. He has average 228 yards per season over the last five years, and should be able to have two or three more productive seasons in the future.
Another concern is the emergence of Rashad Jennings as a possible vulture in the Jacksonville backfield. Jennings played well last season, but I view him as a complimentary back to MJD, and not a threat to his production. Jennings could actually help MJD this season by giving him some rest while ensuring that MJD will be fresh for red zone carries. It should be noted that MJD scored 14 or more touchdowns in two of his seasons while splitting time with Taylor.
While conducting one of my many mock drafts this summer, I came across a scenario that I felt was the best possible simulation of the first two rounds. At the 9th position in the draft, I was able to draft Rashard Mendenhall in the first round followed by MJD on the backside of the snake draft. Both players are excellent bookend backs in a twelve team league, giving my team a stellar foundation to build upon. Although I was fortunate to get Jones 16th overall, I believe he is will produce fantasy numbers worthy of the 6th overall pick.

"At present I am working with a development team to enable automated testing of a complex rating algorithm under development within a property/casualty insurance system. The system component under test accepts several hundred independent input variables which are used to produce rating factors as output. I have had some opportunity to use [NIST-ACTS] as a means to calculate test coverage and identify missing test cases in our current population of test data. I'm pleased to report that the combinatorial coverage data has proven useful to us in identifying gaps. Eventually, I would like to use this data to extend our test coverage as well -- at coverage strength 3 we're producing a volume of test cases that should be manageable when paired with automated test data generation. I can also foresee other uses which would pair automated testing tools with [NIST-ACTS] output to improve our test coverage for other systems."
"Nice... the XML configuration can be used for both CLI and application."
"Our feedback on [NIST-ACTS] is extremely positive. The tool implement in a very efficient way the algorithm of N-Wise reduction we were looking at. In fact, we would be interested in including your technology in our tool [ ]."
"[NIST-ACTS] is a good application. It was easy to figure out and use. ... I would use this application again."
""I've fund it intuitive and greatly helped to reduce the test size. I'll continue to use this tool at next opportunity."
"I think that [NIST-ACTS] has been very helpful in determining test coverage for simple test cases with lots of variables."
" Not only does [NIST-ACTS] handle phenomenal combinatorial complexity without breaking a sweat, it is also very easy and straightforward to use. The user interface is very well thought out, intuitive, and delightfully uncluttered. "

XD HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! I loved the Freddie vs Jason-esque showdown towards the end lol. It was such a monsterpus let down. Not once does the audience have to think for themselves and yea, the prestigious Moss and McDowell reduced to shoddy plot points that are developed superficially. What more can be said? It looked ok lol, but was so full of garbage and 3-D moments that if you saw in 2-D like me were just SILLY. Gotta love gratuitous nudity XD what a let down haha, still at least I laughed alot *shrug* i'll always have the original movie. And the "bosses" of the movie might as well have had signs saying "defeat me by pressing HERE" buttons LOL.

For Long Islanders, home is where the heart is and not surprisingly, it better include a yard. Real estate numbers for September 2013 continue to rise across the board, be it for single/multi-family residences or condominiums. But according to statistics provided by the Multiple Listing Service of Long Island, residents in both counties far and away prefer to have a piece of land to go with their home. According to Merriam-Webster, a condominium is "a room or set of rooms that is owned by the people who live there and that is part of a larger building containing other similar sets of rooms." Condos are different from co-ops, which will be addressed in next month's real estate market update column.
In Nassau, the median number of single/multi-family residences sold last month were 828 with a median price of $420,00. Although only 62 condos sold in the county during the same time period, the median price was nearly $100,000 more at $529,000. Over in Suffolk County, 879 single/multi-family homes sold last month for a median price of $332,500. Apartment living seemed much more in vogue versus Nassau County as the median number of condos sold were 164 with a median price of $287,000.

Explosive Underwear Is No Match for Janet Napolitano's Anti-Terror System
Because 2009 is determined to end this sucky decade on the suckiest note possible, Americans celebrated Christmas with a jolly old blizzard and a festive centerpiece of attempted terrorism. The latter was handcrafted by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, using nothing but a Northwest Airlines plane and a stash of pentaerythritol tetranitrate sewn in his underwear…
Usually, a shock wave from a blasting cap or an exploding wire detonator is needed to set off PETN. Mr. Abdulmutallab was reported to have used a syringe to try to inject a liquid into the explosive.
"It sounds like he was trying to cause a chemical reaction that would initiate it, and that didn't work out so well," said Jimmie C. Oxley, an explosives expert and professor of chemistry at the University of Rhode Island.
Meanwhile, homeland security secretary Janet Napolitano spent the holiday weekend singing damage control carols on CNN…
NAPOLITANO: What we are focused on is making sure that the air environment remains safe, that people are confident when they travel. And one thing I'd like to point out is that the system worked. Everybody played an important role here.
Apparently Napolitano is referring to a sophisticated two-part safety system: the first part requires airplane terrorists who forgot to take notes during chem. The second part involves having a Dutch filmmaker on board to put out the flaming explosives with his hands. Wow! I sure feel confident about traveling, now that I know this system's in place.
Of course, to be fair, it hasn't failed yet.
Update: Now Janet Napolitano is saying the system did fail. You may return to your regularly scheduled panic attack.

Why Ontario needs a competitive market.
For the past two years, the Ontario power sector has resembled a piñata at a children's birthday...
disposed of and the machines cleaned.
Two examples easily illustrate this concept. Plate thickness at a steel-rolling mill is controlled by microprocessors. A brief power interruption can cause rollers to misalign, making it necessary to reheat and reprocess the product. Computer failure at a paper mill can create clutter that requires two work shifts to clean up. It is apparent from these examples that a power interruption may result in an enormous amount of wasted product, employee time, and company resources.
Computers in the banking industry also require an uninterruptible power supply. Even a momentary blackout can be disastrous and require days to get computers back on line, potentially losing millions in sales and angering customers. The First National Bank of Omaha calculated that a one-hour outage would cost $6 million.
Because of the need for a continuous flow of electricity, 3-nines electric reliability is no longer acceptable to some customers. Incredible as it may seem, today some customers are demanding 6-nines or even 9-nines (99.9999999 percent) electric reliability. Demand is forcing development of new strategies for these customers. These strategies will resolve the difference between the reliability of delivered power and the reliability needed by the customer.
One of the new strategies is distributed generation. Distributed generation is the use of small, modular electric generation units close to the point of consumption. The units can be located within an industrial area, inside a building or within a community. Distributed generation technologies are installed for the benefit of a specific customer or an electric system; therefore their use can be stand-alone or they can be integrated with the grid. These technologies are emerging as a result of three independent trends-utility industry restructuring, increasing system capacity needs and technology advancements-that are concurrently laying the groundwork for their widespread use. Distributed generation is drawing interest because of the potential to increase system capacity cost-effectively, while meeting the industry's restructuring objective of market-driven, customer-oriented solutions.
A wide variety of power generation technologies can be classified as distributed generation. These technologies vary by size, application, and efficiency. Reciprocating engines and gas turbines have been commercially successful for decades. Fuel cells and microturbines are newer, evolving distributed generation technologies. Fuel cells can deliver 6-nines reliability, which translates to approximately thirty seconds of outage a year, and may be sufficient for technology centers and the data processing needs of the banking industry. In 1997, the First National Bank of Omaha switched from the grid to fuel cells after experiencing a costly computer crash at its data processing center. The difference between 6-nines and the 9-nines electric reliability required for an unprotected microprocessor also can be supplied by distributed generation investments on the customer side, or some form of storage capacity that can provide a few seconds of ride-through capability.
Distributed generation technologies also provide policymakers, regulators, and the market with flexible options to address system capacity challenges. Long-term demand is now expected to increase at an accelerated rate 2 and there are numerous examples where planned generating capacity is not keeping pace.

T'D OFF: Jimmy T. Annoys His Way Off The Island
"Pulling The Trigger" — Espada adjusts to life without Coach Jimmy Johnson, with Marty acting as kingmaker and king, and Jimmy T.'s protests grow a little too loud for the rest of the tribe. Brenda hands NayOnka the Hidden Immunity Idol on a silver platter, which only serves to emblazon the bully lording over Kelly.
COACH JIMMY EJECTED: Weak, Antique, and Defeated
"Glitter in Their Eyes" After suffering another challenge loss, Espada looks to their leadership for change – led by Marty and Jimmy T., who haven't been happy with how anointed leader Jimmy Johnson has been coaching. A challenge win by La Flor includes a clue to the Hidden Immunity Idol, and NaOnka pulls no punches in wrestling it away from Kelly B.
YOUTH IN TUMULT: Shannon A Persona Non Grata
"Fatigue Makes Cowards of Us All" – As Holly deals with the fallout of having voted out her lone ally and begins losing her mind, the entirety of La Flor goes off the deep end, as NaOnka flips out over Fabio's socks and Shannon losing a power struggle against Brenda, culminating in a bizarre series of outbursts and insults at Tribal Council and leading to his ouster.
GOAT RANCHER TO SCAPEGOAT: Wendy Too Wordy
"Young at Heart" – The tribes are divided into young (La Flor tribe) and old (Espada tribe), but not before setting off to find the mysterious Medallion of Power. While La Flor alternates between flirting and chest-thumping, Jimmy Johnson's pep talks can't translate to challenge victory for Espada, and social outcast Wendy becomes their scapegoat.

Colorism, Racism and other Undesirables
Sometime during the weekend of Thanksgiving, while sick at home because of an LA Flu that seems to be going around, I saw a tweet from a young lady that I find to be very entertaining. She is adorable and a total lady, from what I see of her.
Hi Serria, I've always been shy & overweight. I took your advice, stuck to a New Years resolution to lose weight, and I lost 50 pounds! But I need some serious help, because 1) I don't feel comfortable in my new body, I'm not toned & I have a lot more weight to lose 2) [...]

Is North Korea's World Cup team any good?
As World Cup fever heats up around the world, there's huge interest in the tournament's biggest underdog: North Korea, which debuts against soccer juggernaut Brazil on June 15 in its first cup appearance since a Cinderella showing in 1966.
Kim Jong Il's squad, ranked 105th internationally, just barely qualified for the big show, and oddsmakers figure its chances of winning are about 1,000 to one.
Little is known about the players. There's Kim Myong Won, a striker known as "the Chariot" for his speed. But Kim will be restricted to playing goalkeeper due to a North Korean attempt to skirt FIFA rules. There's also Jong Tae-se, a stocky forward who was born and lives in Japan, where he is known as "the People's Wayne Rooney" for his resemblance to the English star. Jong scored both North Korean goals during a recent match against Greece, which ended in a 2-2 tie, and has vowed to score once in every World Cup game. The team's captain is Hong Yong Jo, who plays for FC Rostov in Russia.
The North Korean team has been cloistered since arriving in South Africa earlier this week. But one source of great speculation has been cleared up: The players will be wearing uniforms made by Legea, an Italian sportswear company that paid a reported $4.9 million for the privilege:
North Korea's team is getting an amount similar to what might be paid to a low-ranking team in the English Premier League, the world's richest soccer league, according to Simon Chadwick, a sports business professor at the U.K.'s Coventry University. Ri, in an interview in Tokyo last week, said it was hard to find a jersey sponsor as there's "no market" for sports apparel in North Korea.
"If it doesn't result in sales, there's no point" for some sporting-goods companies, Ri said.
Legea will provide North Korea with branded World Cup jerseys and training gear, Nastro said. That will help raise the Italian brand's international profile, although the marketing bet could backfire, Chadwick said.
Legea "will be working overtime to put clear blue water between the team and the regime," Chadwick said. "It could get to the stage when people stop buying the brand if they're being seen as propping up a dictatorship."
Ya think?
As part of the deal, North Korea will get a 10 million-euro bonus if the team wins the cup.
