What are yor favorite road rides in Tampa Bay??/thx
What are yor favorite road rides in Tampa Bay??/thx
My fav. Ride every morning from the Northshore pool. Stick the weekdays if you want to avoid the weekend warriors. The weekdays have a core group of maybe 20. Everyone looks out for each other.
I do the Gulf Beaches from Treasure Island, cross the Pinellas Bayway to Fort DeSoto Park and back. Be very careful on Bayway bridge!
Even though I dont live in Florida anymore . (A Texas resident but I miss FL every day) When I went to school at USF we would ride through some desolate roads to Lutz and back. I remember a road called 7 mile hill. We practiced crits around the campus((Alumni, Laurel,Holly and Maple). every once in a while we would go down to Ybor City and do sprints between the lights--but that was all 25 years ago.
I like the Upper Tampa Bay Trail... fabulous ride and you don't have to worry about crazy drivers...
Live in the Tampa Bay Area?
Want to meet some people, join group rides, find local resources for cyclists?
Check out Tampa Bay Cycling Group @
I usually ride downtown burg friday nights because of the traffic. Not much fun for roading, though.
A fixed gear bicycle is 99 percent mechanically efficient.


text: Bruno's Straight Man ? A report this morning suggests Sacha Baron Cohen did not visit yesterday's Yes on 8 rally as the flamboyant firebrand Bruno, but rather as the comic's newer, closeted character Straight Dave. While that would no doubt explain his mall-refugee threads, confusion persists about the language barrier that would influence Straight Dave's placard to reject gay marriage "even zough zey're nice." And that is Bruno's Milan-crashing coiffure . Yes? No? Make your voice heard — the issues can wait. [Filmdrunk via Spout Blog ]

I was having the same experience when my baby was about the same age. One thing that really helped was chiropractic and baby massage. The cranial sacral massage made a world of difference in my daughters sleeping. Also if you are having problems with colic the chiropractor will help with that. I know it may sound a little weird but it helped me and if it means that you get sleep it is worth it. Hope this helps.posted 02/19/2009 by TLynnes08
WOW!!! My baby girl is 5 months old and has been sleeping 8 -12 hours during the night since she was 2 months old. I didn't have a book to tell me how to do it either, and shes my first child. I just started putting her in her crib between 9 and 10 every night. This was after her bath and her night time bottle. It worked and she doesn't wake up during the night to eat. She gets up between 9 and 10, its GREAT!!!!posted 04/28/2008 by aarnold23

Sleep when he sleeps the stupidest advice ever.posted 12/31/2008 by Kathryn61084
What worked for us was co-sleeping. My son figured out quickly that when we snuggled, it was time to sleep. He still fed often, but was able to sleep soon afterward. By 4 mo he was in his crib and by 6 mo he was sleeping up to 11 hours without a peep. I remember the exhaustion though, and I feel for you. It will soon end. Just remember to trust your instincts and do what works for you and your baby.posted 12/16/2007 by a BabyCenter Member
to the 5month old's mom, being weaned from BFing: why not not wean her completely? It's okay to bottle feed during the day, and then BF as part of your bedtime routine. I know alot of working moms who did this until their kids were 3 years old, and it worked for them. Your breasts will get used to it, and then only produce milk at night for the little one's bedtime. win/win situation. And your LO will get the comfort of the boob. :)posted 03/19/2010 by lily schey
First, some of this you may already be doing but....DONT go to her everytime. If she is content, let her just lay in the crib. Playing wtih her at night, turning on lights, etc. will only keep this going. Treat her like its night time...no talking, etc. Good luck. Also, try to keep her awake durng the day as much as you can and stimulate her with lights, outside and all of that. She will come around!posted 03/17/2011 by Shell1115
1)my girl is 2 weeks old ..at what age exactly can i regulate her night sleep ?and how can i do that? 2)after changing my girl diaper and feeding her and holding her,,and giving her colic medication ,,she still crying ..i am getting mad what else can i do?posted 12/26/2010 by evanwagieh
I had the same problem with my daughter also; I was lucky to get 2 hours of sleep in a row. Now, at 2 1/2 months she sleeps through the night about 80% of the time. Your baby is still young and don't worry she will figure it out. In the meantime it helps to establish a routine but try to be flexible with it. I suggest using johnson & johnson lavender scented baby wash, my daughter loves it and about 30-40min later she's out. After baths I stay in her bedroom with her so that she associates her room with sleep and a safe place to be. I also use some baby massage techniques on my little one; she gets some tummy time (which she usually hates)and I get the satisfaction of having a happy baby. I usually do this with her naked laying on a towel with a absorbant mat under her and use lavender scented lotion. Then after putting on pj's I either quietly play with her or feed her. After a little while your baby will get the hang of it. Just try to remember you will eventually get to sleep again.posted 01/28/2008 by Hasletts

Valmont Bike Park celebrates one-year anniversary; New video showcases park (City press release)
The City of Boulder Parks and Recreation Department recently celebrated the one-year anniversary of the grand opening of Valmont Bike Park. The park, located at the corner of Valmont and Airport roads, is a 42-acre, natural-surface facility, recognized as the largest urban bike park open free to the public and offers multiple disciplines for all ages and abilities. The grand opening of Valmont Bike Park occurred on June 11, 2011, at which more than 2,500 children and adults enjoyed a ribbon-cutting ceremony, vendor expo, food, fun and rides on the many park amenities and features.
"We are proud to celebrate the one-year anniversary of such a unique and world-class park," said Kirk Kincannon, Parks and Recreation Department Director. "Over the past year, Valmont Bike Park has won attention from riders from all over the world for its quality of design, construction and innovative terrain park features. Our dedicated staff and volunteers work daily to ensure the best possible experience for riders of all ages and abilities."
Over the past year, Valmont Bike Park:
- served an estimated 50,000 riders from across the country and the globe, including Austria, Bulgaria, Canada, France, Sweden, Germany and the United Kingdom
- trained more than 100 Bike Park volunteers to serve as park hosts and assist City of Boulder staff in community service to the park and users
- coordinated with more than 600 volunteers serving over 2,000 hours of onsite assistance to benefit the park
- distributed more than 200 free helmets to youth and families
- provided programs, clinics and lessons to more than 350 cyclists from the beginner to expert skill level
- partnered with more than two dozen businesses, agencies and organizations to offer additional onsite and offsite services such as programs, demonstrations, food, lodging and support
- hosted various cycling events serving more than 2,000 participants and more than 3,000 daily spectators
- was named the host venue for the 2014 Cyclo-Cross Nationals.
"Valmont Bike Park is one of the most unique and diverse bike parks in the nation," said Michael Eubank, Valmont Bike Park Coordinator. "The park was uniquely designed for both public day-to-day recreational use, programming, special events and world-class races. Over the past year, we've achieved success in all of these areas due to the quality of the park's design, construction and onsite maintenance-not to mention the help from a number of volunteers, organizations and partners such as the Boulder Mountainbike Alliance, Boulder Community Hospital, Avid4 Adventure and Lee Likes Bikes, just to name a few."
A new "know before you go" video showcasing Valmont Bike Park was funded in part by the Boulder Community Hospital, filmed by the City of Boulder's Channel 8 and produced by local company OnSight Media. The video is available at https://vimeo.com/44254238.

Dole Food Deal Passes By Slim Margin as Hedge Funds Seek Appraisal
Dole Food Co.'s $1.2 billion sale to its chief executive and founder squeaked past a shareholder vote on Thursday, but several large holders plan to seek a second opinion on the deal price from a judge, according to people familiar with the matter.
The buyout passed with the support of 50.9% of the shares not held by CEO David Murdock, who owns 39.5% of Dole and is trying to take it private for the second time in a decade. To pass, it needed a majority of shares not controlled by Mr. Murdock to vote yes.
But hedge funds holding at least 10 million shares — or more than 12% of Dole's stock — have said they will seek appraisal for their shares, a legal proceeding in which a judge set a fair price, the people said. Judges in appraisal cases have often awarded more than the offer price, especially in buyouts by large shareholders like Mr. Murdock. But an appraisal can come in lower than the deal price, too, and either way resolution can take years.
The bulk of those shares are held by Merion Investment Management LP, which on Tuesday disclosed an 8.3% stake in Dole. Prior to then it hadn't disclosed a position, meaning it owned less than 5%.
Two other hedge funds holding as many as seven million shares between them have also reserved their right to seek appraisal, according to one person. Another person put the number lower, closer to 2.5 million. A representative for Dole declined to comment, but confirmed that the company had received such notices from several shareholders.
In all, at least 10 million and possibly as many as 14 million shares have foregone the $13.50-per-share buyout offer in the hopes of getting more from a judge. Albert Fried & Co. analyst Sachin Shah said Thursday that the company could be worth more than $17 per share, including valuable land it owns in Hawaii.
This isn't the first appraisal case for Merion, whose strategy includes buying shares of companies on the brink of a buyout and pushing for more in court.
Merion teamed with three other funds in 2011 to seek appraisal for 5.84 million shares of Cogent Inc., which had just been sold to 3M Co. This summer, a judge awarded the funds 3.5 percent more than the sale price. In 2012, the Radnor, Pa.-based fund sued for appraisal of its stake in Deltek Inc., which had been bought by private-equity firm Thoma Bravo LLC. That suit was later dismissed.
Merion is currently seeking appraisal for its 5.4 percent stake in BMC Software Inc., which it acquired weeks before the company's shareholders voted to approve a $6.9 billion buyout by private-equity firms Bain Capital and Golden Gate Capital this summer.
Between BMC and Dole, Merion now has more than $450 million tied up in appraisals, based on the merger prices of the two deals.
Merion is run by Andrew Barroway, a former lawyer at Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check LLP, which represents plaintiffs in big merger and securities cases. Barroway did not respond to a request for comment.
Dole's stock price spiked briefly on news that the deal had passed and closed at $13.55.
It's too late for investors to benefit from an appraisal, which requires shareholders to notify the company before the vote.
But a person familiar with the trading strategy said the newcomers are likely betting on a the outcome of a separate lawsuit over the deal that is moving ahead in Delaware.
In that case, shareholders accuse Mr. Murdock, who also chairs Dole's board, of manipulating the stock price in the run up to his bid. The company canceled a planned stock buyback in May, sending shares plunging to their lowest levels in nearly a year. Dole also announced it would spend $165 million on new ships, a big upfront cost the plaintiffs say was designed to further depress the shares. Mr. Murdock announced his bid two weeks later.
And as it was telling stockholders the shares were worth $13.50, Dole was telling its banks that the company had net assets worth more than $23 per share, according to the complaint, which cites nonpublic materials shown to lenders. The company denies the allegations.
Few merger lawsuits result in more money for shareholders. Most settle, with companies agreeing to disclose more information about the deal process and to pay the plaintiffs' attorney fees.
But the law firm for the Dole plaintiffs, Grant & Eisenhofer PA, has a string of big damages cases to its name. The firm secured multimillion-dollar payouts in litigation over the sale of Del Monte Foods Co. to KKR & Co. LP in 2011, of El Paso Corp.'s pipeline business to Kinder Morgan Corp. in 2012, and of Delphi Financial Group Inc. to Tokio Marine Holdings Inc. in 2012.
Dole's trading after Thursday's vote suggests investors are optimistic Dole will be the next in that line.
UPDATE: Sachin Shah is an analyst at Albert Fried & Co., an earlier version of this post said he was at Goldman Sachs.

More than paper
I was one of those hat-waving, foot-stompin', chair-standing, hoopin' and hollerin' (and now hoarse) Texas delegates at the Republican convention. All week members of other delegations asked us how we put together such an energetic group. It was done one precinct meeting at a time, with years of perseverance and sacrifice. Most of us went back home to our families or jobs, homeschooling our children or volunteering at our local crisis pregnancy centers. But we all went home knowing we participated in a process that sets us apart from most of the rest of the world-a process that allows us a say in the policies that hopefully will guide this nation. Some say the Republican platform is just a piece of paper. Well, so was the Declaration of Independence. - -George W. Clay, Bowie, Texas
Clearing the air
I have always been aware of the liberal bias of the media but you have opened my eyes to the way they deftly mold the news to fit their liberal agenda ("Boo-hoo: GOP provides news media no negative campaigning to criticize," Aug. 12). WORLD is a breath of fresh air in the stagnant world of magazines. - -Andrea Schumann, Moberly, Mo.
Spun out
I am sickened of the liberal spin by political "analysts" on those intolerant, uncompromising Republicans. The Democratic platform is just as staunch for abortion as the Republican platform is against it. And members of which party's California delegation booed Boy Scouts when they walked on stage to lead the Pledge of Allegiance? And where was the media to report this? Strangely silent. Instead we saw, several times, the quiet prayerful protest of Republican Christians against the gay member of Congress who spoke at the Republican convention. Which is the real party of intolerance? - Trevin Wax, Murfreesboro, Tenn.
Avoiding the trap
I think you completely misread Mr. Bush's tactics in his interview with Barbara Walters ("An aborted vision," Aug. 12). Mr. Bush's simple response, "I am pro-life," turned away an opportunity for her to pick him apart or try to force him to equivocate. Too many professing pro-life politicians have been seen to waffle, temporize, or obfuscate. Mr. Bush's statement and his choice of a pro-life running mate show that he means to avoid this trap, and his promise to sign a bill banning partial-birth abortion forces the Democrats to defend this abomination. - Robert D. Sexton, Fresno, Calif.
No soap
I found Dr. Reardon's "judgment call" against Gov. Bush to be an exceptionally naïve assessment considering, as Dr. Reardon himself pointed out, Barbara Walters's agenda to portray the Republican candidate as the "enemy of choice." It is naïve to assume that one's staunch ideological enemy would allow your noble soap box moment to air unedited and unchallenged. It was not the forum to deliver a State of the Union address on the issue. - Bryan J.L. Glass, Elkins Park, Pa.
You've got mail
Dr. Reardon found an answer to those who are pro-choice, pro women's rights, etc. I am impressed with his thoughtful solutions to a difficult problem. I hope you sent a copy to Mr. Bush. - Anne Batty, San Clemente, Calif.
A soft answer
Rather than send a nasty note to General Mills, I called to thank them for putting the Bible on the CD even though they had apologized for it ("Nixing Scripture," Aug. 12). Meanwhile, I am enjoying the software. - Marte Kellogg, San Antonio, Texas
Nixing General Mills
My husband and I were very disappointed with General Mills upon reading "Nixing Scripture." Our family has decided to stop using General Mills products until they can satisfactorily explain themselves. - Karolyn Dunlop, Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio
Noah Webster's colleague
Another great job, Lynn Vincent, on "Nixing Scripture." However, Miriam is the sister of Moses. It's a Merriam who helped write the Merriam-Webster Dictionary. - Rick Merriam, Marion, S.D.

Just a game
While Mr. Veith's theory about Survivor being Darwinian was interesting, it might have helped if he had watched the show first ("Alternate reality," Aug. 12). His supporting claims were wrong; not all the old people were gone, and neither was Rich, the professing homosexual (he ended up winning). True, the Christian was voted off, but it appeared to me that people were more concerned about his health than his views. I think that Mr. Veith missed the point-it's only a game, it's not about true survival. - Sarah Schmidt, Mankato, Minn.
Cutthroat community
After finding myself uneducated about today's culture, I decided to watch Survivor as a study in human interaction. These castaways are in a game for the money, supposedly cutthroat, but from week to week there is a communal society affected by each other's actions. After people are voted off, there is always solemnity and mourning of some sort. There's more food to go around, but they've eliminated part of their group at the same time. Perhaps this group of castaways, a cross-section of our society, has demonstrated how people strive to survive without God and how ugly, sad, and unnecessary it all is. It has shown me that I could be any of those people, except by the grace of God. And perhaps the castaways are much more like us than we would want to acknowledge. Now that's reality. - A.K. Lemons, Phoenix, Ariz.
A one-time event, we hope
Thanks for your sincere apology for misspelling Mr. Cheney's name on the cover of the Aug. 5 issue. - Eleanor Wright, Central City, Neb.
Blessed by the ADA
My response to your peevish attitude about the "unintended consequences" of the Americans with Disabilities Act is that record piracy is caused by criminals and not by the ADA ("ADA ... live in concert," Aug. 12). The law should be touched up to prevent exploitation, but I would hope you are not suggesting that it should never have been passed or that it be repealed. I supported the ADA from the time President Bush signed it into law. I later gave birth to a son with spina bifida. He is now 7 and ambulates in a wheelchair, and I see daily reminders of what a blessing the ADA is to the disabled and their families. - Lucy Fetner Edling, Plano, Texas
American by understanding
In "Immigrant immisprint" (Aug. 12) you talked about "how many unqualified individuals might have gained citizenship." This does not bother me when I consider how many native-born Americans are also "unqualified." I know several immigrants who know what it is to be an American better than many native-born Americans because they do not take what we have for granted. - Thomas M. Blooming, Roseville, Minn.
Smoked out
Your defense of the tobacco industry is very offensive to me, having had personal loss in this area ("Stubbing out freedom," Aug. 5). Please cancel my subscription. - Russell Pilegaard, Ruthton, Minn.
New light
Your July 8 cover, the negative of the Supreme Court, was clever and graphic ("A dark day"). Yet even in the darkness of the negative, there was some light peeking around the columns. The Supreme Court's decision to strike down a ban on partial-birth abortion was a tragedy for the unborn but a wake-up call for the pro-life movement. Rarely is evil so clearly exposed as it is in partial-birth abortion. We must redouble our efforts to end the practice. Our recommitment, buoyed by God's love, can bring some light back into the abortion picture. - Ward Irvin, Marietta, Ga.
A sharp guy
"Locking up the big guns" (Aug. 12) was not the kind of article on the GOP convention I expected from WORLD. The critical and cautionary tone caught my eye, starting with the "Soft focus" cover headline, and it continued with "How Bush could blow it" and "An aborted vision." You apparently chose to sound a warning for a clearer vision, but I felt that Mr. Bush's Thursday night speech fired round after round of conservative values, including a pro-life stand. His hits on the current White House were right on target. Mr. Bush is the lens needed to sharpen the focus of the Republican Party. - -Gary S. Karwoski, Riverside, Ill.

SSP Blog
SSP Blog
This year, more than 1,700 finalists competed at the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair 2015 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Finalists qualify for Intel ISEF by participating regional, state, or national fairs associated with Society for Science & the Public.
Hosting an event like the Intel International Science and Engineering Fair requires lots of prep work. Check out some photos from our behind the scenes photo blog on Doing Science!
Makayla Gates came to Washington, DC for the first time in her life last year. She flew into the city for Broadcom MASTERS 2014, where she presented her project entitled Acoustic Levitation: The Wave of the Future.
It's been a whirlwind of a year for Makayla since Broadcom MASTERS. Read more on the Doing Science blog!
Alexandra Rojek, an Intel Science Talent Search (Intel STS) 2011 semifinalist, is currently an undergraduate at Harvard.
She co-founded the International Collegiate Science Journal (ICSJ) over the past year, with the help of several SSP alumni, including: Malone Locke, Intel ISEF 2007-2008; Abrar Choudhury, Intel STS 2012 semifinalist; Cissy Chen, Intel ISEF 2011; Carrie Sha, Intel STS 2013 semifinalist; and Joyce Kang, Intel STS 2014 finalist.
At SSP, we strive to create a supportive, engaging community for STEM enthusiasts by providing extraordinary opportunities for students and educational entertainment for the readers of our publications, Science News and Science News for Students.
We bet you probably didn't know that, according to the Department of Education, by the time young women go to college, only 3% of them will declare a major in engineering.
On Thursday, April 23, SSP President and CEO Maya Ajmera will join Broadcom Foundation's President and Executive Director, Paula Golden, in Irvine, California to discuss filling in the gaps of STEM education for young women at a "fireside chat" sponsored by the Broadcom Women's Network.
On Friday, April 3, the Culture Beaker blog, where science and culture mix, was added to the Science News blog network. It joins six other blogs currently available: Context, Growth Curve, Scicurious, Science Ticker, Wild Things, and Gory Details.
Editor's note introducing the blog:
Maria Elena Grimmett, the recipient of the 2012 Broadcom MASTERS 2012 Mathematics Award, used her award money to cover the expenses of a once in a lifetime opportunity to engage in twenty-two lectures and discussions with Cambridge faculty on topics as varied as Darwin and his era, Watson and Crick, Dickens' Hard Times, Ishiguro's Never Let Me Go, and Shelley's Frankenstein.
In 1999, Natalia Toro became the youngest Intel Science Talent Search top winner. She was 14.
In conjunction with the White House Science Fair held earlier this week, SSP announced a commitment to launch a pilot SSP mini-grant program in 2015. This program will support under-served and socio-economically challenged students who have done scientific research by helping them to take the next step and submit their research for presentation and competition.

State to release $1.7 billion in Sandy aid
(Page 3 of 3)
NY Rising representatives are currently assisting residents and business owners with the application process at the Ice Arena. Applicants may need to provide copies of their deeds, their most recent mortgage statements, insurance policies, contractor estimates, tax returns, and denial or approval letters from their insurance companies, FEMA or the Small Business Administration.
"They say, 'Come to the Ice Arena,' but don't tell you what you need to bring," Daly said. "I have at least 25 pieces of paper I need to scan and attach to the form."
Pennsylvania Avenue resident Sam Kinsley, who knocked down her Sandy-damaged home on April 15, said that after three hours of working on her application, she wasn't nearly done.
"I think [this funding] is going to be the same, if not worse, with this process we have to go through," Kinsley said. "The application process is beyond comprehensible. I spent three hours doing it and my eyes got blurry. It took less time to get a master's degree than to do this ridiculous paperwork. And there's no guarantee of what they're going to give. I'm not hopeful for any of this money. I'm more hopeful that I'd win the Mega Millions."
NY Rising
NY Rising representatives are assisting residents and business owners with the application process at the Long Beach Recreation Center and Ice Arena, 700 Magnolia Blvd., from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday, and on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. For more information visit www.nysandyhelp.ny.gov or call (855) NYS-SANDY.

The Grants have lots of catches. If you did not have flood insurance, did not qualify for a SBA loan and had in excess of FEMA verified 41,900 in damage you go to the front of the line as well you should.
They also asked for all your tax information. You also need licensed contractors to do work who need to provide W9s etc. Under 90K a year income is the magic number to get more money.
It is great the state is doing this but honestly few folks unless they have to be ICC complaint with less than 41,900 in uncovered damage will be covered. In fact they should not be covered.
Remember FEMA pays up to 31,900 and NY HRRF pays up to 10k.

Latest News Philippines: CamSur politics 'turning violent' – Journal.com.ph:
TIGAON, Camarines Sur — Mayor Arnulfo Bryan Fuentebella recently sought the help of police agencies, the CIDG, NBI and the police regional office in Camp Simeon Ola and offered a Php30,000 reward money for any information that could lead to the arrest of the suspect in the attempted killing of Bgy. Captain Arquimedes Mabana.
Fuentebella, son of CamSur 4th district Rep. Arnulfo "Noli" Fuentebella, told People's Journal on Tuesday that "we cannot allow violence to dominate local politics. I have sought the help of police authorities to get into the bottom of this incident, which had alarmed the peaceful residents of this town."
He said the recent killing of Lupi town Mayor Raul Matamorosa last Oct. 27 was politically motivated.
Fuentebella said Matamorosa was among the leaders of CamSur 1st district Rep. Rolando Andaya Jr. Fuentebella said that in the past months, a barangay official in Libmanan, a known leader of Arroyo, and a policeman were also shot.
Mabana's shooting last Sunday was reportedly perpetrated by riding-in-tandem suspects.
Mabana fled to the ricefields but the suspects chased him and fired at him three more times, hitting him in the left armpit.

Hey there everybody. I'm a long-time mountain bike rider who's looking for a good cyclocross bike for all-around riding. I've narrowed my choice down to the LeMond Poprad and the Cannondale Cyclocross, both '06 models. I was just wondering if anyone has any experience with these two bikes. I haven't ridden either yet. . . I'm still waiting for the LBS to get the new model year bikes in stock. I understand that the Cannondale is stiff, yet supple, thanks to the AL frame, carbon forks and seatpost. The Poprad, some tell me, has a bit more flex, being steel, and doesn't accelerate quite as quickly as an AL bike. But, the Poprad is also rumored to have a real nice, fast and smooth ride.
Also, does anybody know how much a 55cm Poprad weighs? I'm guessing around 23 pounds, but I really have no idea. I'm pretty sure the Cannondale is a little lighter, probably by about a half-pound.
Oh, and I really like the orange of the Poprad. Really. I'm not kidding. It's cool and retro. And I think that Cannondale needs to chill out with all the decals. Seriously. Just an aside. . .

Smartest Cities In America: Fast Company Ranks Brainiest Cities (PHOTOS) (Huffington post)
How brainy is your 'hood? That's the question posed by Dr. Boyd Cohen in a
recent article published in Fast Company.
Cohen looked at cities across North America and rated them on a "smart city"
scale based on characteristics ranging from livability to innovative
technology use.
Cohen argues that "smart cities" prioritize green buildings techniques,
entrepreneurship, societal inclusiveness, mixed-modal transportation access,
governmental transparency and overall safety, among other things.

Angels notes: Calhoun resumes hot-hitting ways
ANAHEIM – Just when it looked like Kole Calhoun's hot streak had come to an end, it started again.
Calhoun, who had been 2 for 17 in his previous four games, homered, walked and hit a hard line drive in the Angels' 3-2 loss to the Seattle Mariners.
"Kole is getting an opportunity and he's ready for it," Manager Mike Scioscia said. "He's better prepared now than at any time we've had him in our organization. He's made some adjustments on the mechanical side with his swing. It's a short swing. He's a strong kid. He's showing us a lot."
Calhoun is hitting .287 with a .351 on-base percentage and eight homers since he was recalled in late July, when Albert Pujols went on the disabled list. More impressive is his run-production. He has driven in 24 runs in his past 27 games.
Scioscia didn't seem concerned with the four-game hiccup.
"You aren't going to square it up all the time," Scioscia said. "There are things that are going to be cyclical at times. Everything that Kole has done (has shown) he's ready for his opportunity, and he's making the most of it."
Calhoun came up empty in his only at-bat with runners in scoring position Sunday, but it wasn't for lack of a good swing. Facing Felix Hernandez with the bases loaded and two outs in the third, he drilled a line drive to right fielder Franklin Gutierrez.
Including that one, the Angels were hitless in 11 at-bats with runners in scoring position. They also struck out 15 times.
C.J. Wilson pitched 81/3 innings, equaling his longest outing of the season, and he surpassed the 200-inning milestone for the fourth consecutive season. Wilson is one of just eight pitchers to reach that mark each of the past four seasons. The others are Mark Buehrle, Cole Hamels, Clayton Kershaw, Cliff Lee, CC Sabathia, James Shields and Justin Verlander.
"As a starter, you are trying to make all your starts, as many innings as you can," Wilson said. "That's your job. That's why they brought me in."
Wilson, however, took his first loss since July 5, snapping his career-best nine-game winning streak. He gave up a two-run homer to Justin Smoak in the sixth, providing the decisive runs in the game.
Andrew Romine ended up as the Angels third baseman almost by default, after Alberto Callaspo was traded and the first two players to replace him got hurt.
In the two weeks he has been the everyday third baseman, though, Romine has opened up some eyes.
"It's incredible," Scioscia said. "On the defensive side, there are obviously some things. There's a comfort level you acquire and he didn't play much third all year. He's got to get acclimated. He's doing a great job. At the plate he's gotten some key hits for us."
Romine is batting .328 since he returned to the majors in August. He was hitting .130 when he was batting left-handed exclusively. He returned to switch-hitting, as he had done for most of his career, this summer.
It's still too early to know how prominently Romine could figure in the Angels' third base plans for next season, since they will likely get someone from outside the organization to at least handle part of the job.
Jered Weaver, whose scheduled start Friday was scratched because of forearm tightness, threw a bullpen session before Sunday's game, and he is expected to throw a more aggressive one today. Scioscia is optimistic Weaver will be able to start Wednesday against the A's in the final home game of the season. If Weaver can't pitch, Matt Shoemaker will start. … The Angels outrighted pitchers David Carpenter and Daniel Stange. Both cleared waivers and have been removed from the 40-man roster. Stange has the option to become a free agent, but Carpenter will remain in the organization. … Chris Nelson is still not able to run enough to do anything more than play defense. Nelson, who missed three weeks because of a strained hamstring, was activated last week, but he's not fully recovered yet. … Including advance ticket sales for the final three home games of the season, the Angels will reach 3 million fans for the 11th consecutive season. The Angels and the New York Yankees are the only teams with active streaks of drawing 3 million fans for at least 11 seasons.

Pittsburgh Catholic Column: December 7, 2007
Why Catholic universities like the liberal arts
by Dr. Charles J. Dougherty
Large numbers of college-bound students have no clear idea of a future career and no fixed disposition toward a major field of study. They know they need a college education for whatever lies before them. But they do not have a career path in mind.
Many of these students will choose a liberal arts program. Some do so because of the prospect of deeper study of something they enjoyed in high school—history or literature, for example. Some do so because of advice that those undecided about a major should start with liberal arts. Some do so because the university they will attend actively promotes the liberal arts. This is true of most Catholic universities. In fact, many Catholic universities have core requirements in the liberal arts for all students, even those in professional programs.
Why do Catholic universities promote the liberal arts? One clear answer is historical. Contemporary American Catholic universities developed largely on the model of the medieval universities of Europe. In those institutions, theology, philosophy, rhetoric, grammar and mathematics were central. The study of law or medicine was generally preceded by studies in these liberal arts areas.
But there are deeper conceptual links between the Catholic university and the liberal arts. Theology is the obvious case. Catholic universities offer theology because of the belief that faith can be defended and deepened by the use of reason.
The other classical parts of the liberal arts—philosophy, history and literature—have another link to the mission of Catholic universities. In their modern expressions, none of these disciplines intends to defend and deepen faith. In fact, some major contributors to the development of these fields are indifferent or hostile to faith.
The connection between these fields and the mission of Catholic universities lies in the root of the word "liberal" which, of course, means free. The study of the liberal arts is meant to free the mind. In a society that regards itself as the leader of the free world and for students who enjoy an unprecedented range of freedoms in their lives, "free" in this context is neither political nor directly practical. The freedom sought here is mental, a freeing of the mind of limitations on thinking and imagination. The liberal arts accomplish this freeing by teaching, directly or indirectly, the following mental habits.
Analysis: The liberal arts foster the ability to break complex wholes into their constituent parts. This skill helps one to understand the steps of a moral argument, for example, or the multiple forces that led to an historical event.
Synthesis: They also promote mental habits in just the opposite direction. The liberal arts focus on the "big picture." They ask, for example, what is the essence of Christianity? Or, what is the message of" Moby Dick?"
Criticism: The liberal arts create critical thinkers. This does not mean being negative; it means being able to examine the truth of assertions. Perhaps "everyone" believes it, but is it true? What is the evidence for a point of view, and is it really compelling?
Imagination: The liberal arts were teaching students to think "outside the box" centuries before that phrase was born. To immerse oneself intellectually in another time and culture, for example, is to expand one's own possibilities.
Articulation: More than in any other field, the liberal arts hone the skills of reading, writing and speaking. Generally, ideas are only as effective as their expression. The liberal arts teach how to attend to the expressions of others and to be more articulate in one's own expressions.
It is clear that this is a list of skills that are universally useful. An individual in any career will likely be more successful if he or she has an analytic and synthetic mind, is a critical and creative thinker, and is an effective communicator. Such an individual is a freer, more complete person. That is why Catholic universities promote the liberal arts and generally require some study of them for every student, regardless of major.

An electron microscope image of a coronavirus, part of a family of viruses that cause ailments including the common cold and SARS, which was first identified last year in the Middle East. Photo: AP
London: A third patient has been diagnosed with a new Sars-like virus, in what experts believe is the first time it has been passed between people.
The patient, who has not been named, was in a stable condition in an isolation room at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham.
The other two confirmed cases of the coronavirus involved patients who had travelled to the Middle East, where it is thought that the disease originated.
The latest sufferer had not been abroad but is related to a patient in Manchester who was confirmed with the disease on Monday. The first case in Britain involved a 49-year-old Qatari man who was diagnosed last year. Experts said the Birmingham case was the best evidence yet of person-to-person transmission of the virus, of which there have been 11 diagnosed cases worldwide. It has killed almost half of those who have been diagnosed.
The new patient was understood to have a long-term medical condition that made them more susceptible to respiratory infections. Experts said that, as the new strain was detected more than three months ago and this appeared to be the first time it had passed between people, it did not seem to be very infectious.

MIAMI (AP) -- A tropical depression far out in the Atlantic is forecast to become a hurricane this week, but it's too early to know if it'll strike the U.S. or anywhere else.
The new depression is forecast to become Tropical Storm Katia -- the name that replaced Katrina in the rotating storm roster because of the catastrophic damage from the 2005 storm. That could come early Tuesday.
The U.S. National Hurricane Center in Miami said Monday the depression south of the Cape Verde Islands could reach hurricane strength Thursday, still far out in the Atlantic.
Hurricane Center spokesman Dennis Feltgen said it's too early to know if it would hit the U.S.

Stunning New Images From David Fincher's The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo
By Eric Eisenberg 2011-10-07 17:56:16 comments
There hasn't been another series of movie promotions this year as beautiful as the artwork being made for David Fincher's The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. In addition to releasing some stunning official stills and trailers, stars Rooney Mara and Daniel Craig have both participated in multiple magazine spreads as their characters from the film. The last time they did this was for the new issue of Empire, but now they've gone and done it yet again, this time for the French newspaper Le Monde.
The site has posted six images in total, three of which you can see below.

And the gold containers are another unique buy. "Try not to buy everything from one place," she advises. "It ends up looking like you've rushed it or too much like a catalog."

The Vampire Diaries
Are Ian Somerhalder and Nina Dobrev Still Dating in 2013?
Romances can be hard to keep up with. Sometimes we forget who we're dating. But Nina Dobrev (Elena Gilbert) and Ian Somerhalder (Damon Salvatore) are a couple who make it difficult to discern whether they're together or not.
For example, lots of cute and flirty photos seemed to indicate The Vampire Diaries stars were dating as far back as 2010. But they always played coy when asked about their relationship. Then in September 2012, Nina admitted to Seventeen magazine that she'd fought the connection between herself and Ian for a long time before finally giving in.
So as of a few months ago, they were definitely together. How about now? Well, the pair were spotted shopping for Christmas trees in December, and Ian wished the "beautiful" Nina a happy birthday via Twitter on January 9.
At the Celebrity Beach Bowl over Super Bowl weekend, Nina and Ian looked as in love as ever, chasing each other around the arena.
Looks like their relationship is as strong as ever!


text: Will Corrie's Andrea get her man? 04 Feb 2014 Coronation Street's latest arrival Andrea has set her sights on an oblivious Steve McDonald, despite the fact he is in a relationship with Michelle Connor - but will she get her man? Share Share Share Story by UTV Staff, Belfast After striking up a friendship with Steve, viewers were soon aware that Andrea wanted to be more than just friends.So with Michelle in the background casting a suspicious eye on her, Andrea started dating Steve's best friend Lloyd Mullaney - but is she fooling anyone?Speaking to This Morning, actress Hayley Tamaddon admitted: "She's a bit feisty!"I think Steve kind of thinks that he's got a mate in Andrea that he can have a beer with and she's dead cool."But she really has taken a liking to him and she fancies him quite a lot."She has set herself (the challenge) to get Steve and she's not going to stop until she does."The actress added: "Poor Lloyd - he has really fallen for Andrea and there is going to be some nice stuff actually with both those characters, but I don't think she ever takes her eye off the ball."To get to Steve I think she thinks she should go through Lloyd."Since joining the soap Hayley has been asked to stay longer than the six months she initially signed up for and she admits she is "gobsmacked" to be a part of team Corrie."I'm still pinching myself that I am in it," she said. "I go into work and I look in the green room and there's Barbara Knox (Rita Tanner), Simon Gregson (Steve McDonald) and Beverley Callard (Liz McDonald) and I'm like "I work with these people!"But it is a very busy time for Hayley as she is also currently taking part in the final series of Dancing On Ice.She explained that she almost didn't audition for the role of Andrea because she had already signed up for the popular ice skating show."I actually said to my agent "Is there any point in even going for the audition?" because I thought once they found out about Dancing On Ice I was sure they would give the part to someone else."And he said "We'll never know, just go along and meet them"."And it just slotted into place - it was amazing."They have been so overly helpful, both Dancing On Ice and Coronation Street have come together to really help me make it work."I eat at least one meal a day on a train! It's crazy but I think I'm thriving off the energy of it and I absolutely love both jobs so much."I'm not really bothered that I'm tired." © UTV Share Share Share

Today is the start of National Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
The campaign is now 25 years old, and its signature pink ribbon (shown) has become a talisman.
The good news this year is that the health reform law contains money to increase awareness of this disease among young women. It's rare among young women, but quite deadly.
Overall, deaths from breast cancer have been dropping for 20 years, and early detection is credited.
But is that the real answer?
There is a growing body of evidence that hormone replacement therapy may have been one factor responsible for the growth of the disease.
After studies pointed to a causality in 2002, for instance, cases among older women in Canada suddenly dropped 10%, as they simply stopped taking the drugs.
American rates of the disease are twice those of Brazil, three times that of China. New studies indicate that cutting back on alcohol and maintaining a healthy weight can cut your risk of developing breast cancer by 40%.
Then there is the controversy over regular screening, which is only growing.
Many women question the finding that regular mammograms for women over 40 may not be indicated, which was confirmed this week by a study in Norway.
As with prostate cancer, a key to understanding breast cancer may be knowing that it can vary in severity. Cutting off breasts and prostates because you hear the word "cancer," when you don't know how fast it's spreading or whether it might indeed just fade away, is not a life saver.
Instead, this may be a case where genetic medicine holds the promise of answers.
A mutation of the BRCA2 gene can increase your risk 60%. Such genetic tests can tell young women whether they need to get regular mammograms or not, and whether they need to take immediate action when the dread word cancer is spoken.
As I wrote here last year, save the ta-tas . Awareness, yes. Paranoia, no.

Speaking at Comic Con earlier this year, director Guillermo del Toro expressed some reservations about converting his Pacific Rim to 3D, noting that the film's large-scale, awesome-sounding battles between huge mechs and aliens might not play well in the format. Warner Bros., meanwhile, is really hoping no one remembers that statement by next summer, because they're going to go ahead and convert Pacific Rim to 3D anyway.
Variety claims the studio "has strong-armed Guillermo del Toro" into making his upcoming sci-fi action film--which stars Idris Elba, Charlie Hunnam, Charlie Day, and Rinko Kikuchi as a crew charged with piloting giant robots in a war against invading extra-terrestrials--the latest 2D film to after-the-fact switch to three dimensions in post-production.
The decision to say fuck-all to the director's vision and make stuff pop out of the screen it said to largely stem from the potentially-massive rise in grosses overseas, where some bizarre cultures do not find 3D to be at all excessive or irritating. Warner is still expecting the film to hit its July 12, 2013 release date. Also, they would like you to forget about how notoriously shitty it looked when they did this with Wrath of the Titans. Please stop remembering that and everything Guillermo del Toro said.

Unlike Facebook where you are not allowed to use animated gif images for our profile, Twitter lets you upload and use gif pictures for your profile picture. Lots of Twitter users are already using this feature and if you like it too and need to create an animated image for your profile and use it on Twitter, just follow the simple guide in this tutorial.
First, you should know that,
– The image must not exceed 80 x 80 pixels, else it may lose the animation when uploaded
– The size must not exceed 700kb, this is the maximum allowed image file size allowed
How to create a animated profile image
If you have a GIF editor installed on your computer, you can use it to create the animated profile picture you want to use and if you don't, there are several websites offering this service. A few of them are listed below:
1. Picasion
2. GIFgear
3. GIFsun
If you want to create something nice that won't look distorted, be sure the image you're uploading is square. Also remember not to let the dimension exceed 80 X 80.
You can also pick up one from this gallery here. There are lots of funny and crazy pictures there. To use the picture on your twitter profile, go to your profile settings page and uploaded the GIF image like you normally would. Save the changes and you check your profile. You should now see the animation.
Personally, I don't like the idea that much and I prefer using normal images.

Asians in Fashion | Miss A's Suzy for Elle Korea September 2013
Posted By Ethel Navales On September 24, 2013 @ 7:04 pm In Fashion | Comments Disabled
This 18-year-old Korean singer and actress gives us a taste of her modeling skills.
Bae Su Ji, more commonly known by her stagename Suzy, is most recognized for her role as Go Hye-mi in the popular drama series Dream High alongside Taecyeon, Eunjung, Wooyoung, IU and Kim Soo-Hyun.
Suzy is also known for her roles as Jang Ma Ri in Big, Yang Seo Yeon in Architecture 101, and Dam Yeo Wool in Gu Family Book.
In 2010, Suzy debuted with Korean girl group miss A. Adding on to her already impressive resume, Suzy has done her time as a tv host and is nicknamed "CF Queen" due to her success with endorsements.
Clearly, this is one talented young lady and quite a beauty as well. In this Elle Korea September 2013 photoshoot, Suzy shows a mastery of her poses and an amazing ability to make color pop. Check out the photos below:

The Lady Panthers will have just four days of practice under their belt when they take the court against their first opponent on Friday morning. With a young team and a new coach at the helm, fans are getting ready to see how good these girls can be.
The ladies started two-a-day practices on Monday and will line up against Gunter on Friday and then Sunnyvale on Saturday in their first and only scrimmages. Van Alstyne's first game of the season is the following Tuesday when they travel to Howe.
"The first few practices have been successful and I am looking forward to what's in store this season," Van Alstyne Head Coach LeQuia Collins said. "With only one senior this year, the girls are eager to learn and excited about the season."
Their home opener will be on Aug. 26 when they play host to Anna, Collins' former school.
Like all the change was not enough to overcome, a water leak at the high school forced the team to hold their first practices at the middle school while repairs were made. Despite the setback, Collins says that she has expectations that her team can and will start strong this season.
"I am extremely confident in my team this year," Collins said. "I am excited and honored to work with such a great and respectful group of young ladies."
With the UIL realignment last spring, Van Alstyne will see some new opponents when it gets to district play on Sept. 12. The Lady Panthers will take on Commerce, Tom Bean, Leonard, Lone Oak, Caddo Mills, Farmersville and Whitewright in district play; with eight teams in their district, a playoff spot is only guaranteed to the top four teams.

Calling it a project might be a bit of an overstatement, but only because it's something I've been doing since I was a kid. I actually bought Fractal Terrains some years ago (which is why I originally registered here) to create a map, but my skills are not anywhere near where they'd need to be.
So I'm calling for the pros. I used SimCity 4 to make a rough map of my country called the Confederacy of Neloxia. It's envisioned as a first-world nation that's now spread out onto two maps. I've reached as far as I can go though and would like a real visual of the nation and the autonomous region that borders it - Laurinca. I've taken this project so far that I bought a domain for it and have created a multi-tiered database in Football Manager depicting the country's football pyramid.
What I'd like is a web-based map (aka, one that shows all of the cities and major roadways) depicting the country. In a real world map, it spans from Friuli-Venezia province (Italy) through Slovenia and encompasses the Croatian island of Krk, but that's only to illustrate how big it is in real-life, not a constraint of how you ought to design it (though if that makes it easier to make a map, then please by all means do so.) The total land area of that is about 10,500 sq. miles or so.
I'm copying this from the post offered as a trial since it works for what I need: I'd want the right to freely distribute the image physically and electronically. I'd want the right, or option to purchase the right, to use the image commercially. I'd want exclusive commercial right to it's usage, but the artist would retain the right to display or sell it as a work of art. I'd retain the right to reproduce the image in full, or in part, on my own or through a commision with another artist.
I'd just like a nice quality map that would really bring Neloxia to life better than I can in SimCity. Timeframe isn't super important, I'm more interested in seeing progress...but it'd obviously be nice to get it before the end of the year, 2011.
To give you more ideas of the detail of the country, here are some detail maps from SC4 that I made in Photoshop from screenshots, the northern (and Laurinca) aren't shown as they've improved substantially since I took these earlier this year.
NW Neloxia
Southern Neloxia
Marisa Capital Area (which will be renamed for our new map)
So if you're interested, please drop me a note at activedialogue [at] gmail.com or reply on this thread and I'll get in touch.

Comments about Pedaltrain PT-2 Pedalboard with Hardshell ATA Flightcase:
Two parts to this review, the pedal board itself, and the ATA case.
First the pedalboard itself - It's solid, light weight and well built, this thing will outlast me. It easily fits my 8 pedals with some room to grow. I really like the mounting rails, the angle of the board and the space underneath. I ran my cables under the rails, which got them out of the way so they're neat, stable and secure. With other pedal boards the cables are often out in the open where the slightest nudge can disconnect something during a gig, but Pedaltrain is rock solid.
It comes with a generous supply of velrco and cable wraps. It also comes with mounting brackets for a separate Voodoo Labs powersupply, (not included) which can be mounted underneath. It does not come with cables.
Now, on to the ATA case. It is very solid and looks professional. If you're a gigging musician and want the utmost protection for moving your pedals and board, then you should consider this option. Otherwise it adds weight and bulk that you might not want. We still try to fit everything for our weekend gigs into compact car, so I am still considering whether this might actually be too big for me.

I pump my tires up to max pressure which is 65 psi but I notice that my rear tire is still deformed when I sit down, is this normal? Should I try going to 70 psi or will it go boom?
