A Trip to the ZooLogic Grid puzzles come with a handy interactive grid that will help you solve the puzzle based on the given clues.
One day, five mothers each brought their only child to the zoo. The children had a glorious time together watching the different animals and eating their favorite snacks. The kids were so good, at the end of the day each mother let her child get one item from the souvenir shop as they were leaving the zoo. Can you determine the full name of each child, each child's favorite snack and animal, and the souvenir each brought home?
1. Julia, who loves cotton candy, didn't like the elephants. Mary didn't get a caramel apple. The child who got the stuffed animal liked the giraffes best.
2. Alan Rivera, the girl who liked the lions, and the child who got the activity set didn't want to leave the zoo.
3. Neither of the boys got fried dough, but one got nachos and the other one liked the monkeys best. Tom didn't get a poster.
4. The Gomez child almost got a coloring book with Mary but finally decided on a poster.
5. Tom, whose last name isn't Lozada, got a toy gun but didn't get a caramel apple. The Rodriguez child had fried dough.
6. Beth, who didn't like the giraffes or the elephants best, got an activity set.
AnswerAlan Rivera: nachos, giraffes, stuffed animal
Beth Lozada: caramel apple, seals, activity set
Julia Gomez: cotton candy, lions, poster
Mary Rodriguez: fried dough, elephants, coloring book

The government has risked a fresh fight with Derby after Theresa Villiers, rail minister, pulled out of a rail conference in the city at short notice to attend to constituency matters.
Business and civic leaders in the city, including the Conservative leader of the council, Philip Hickson, are already seething after Bombardier, the UK train maker, lost out to Siemens in a train contract.
It has shed 1,400 jobs as a result and is reviewing the future of the plant.
Ms Villiers told the Derby and Derbyshire Rail Forum on Tuesday that she would not deliver a promised keynote speech on Thursday because she had a more pressing issue. Read more

WITH January touted as the divorce season, one Bromsgrove-based law firm is making the most of circumstances, by offering a reduced rate for it divorce fees throughout the month.
Thomas Horton LLP Solicitors has just appointed Anila Naeem as its new head of matrimonial services.
She said: "It's a sad fact that there is a higher proportion of marriage breakdowns in January than any other time of year so this can be an extremely difficult time for many families. By offering a reduced fee we are able to remove at least one uncertainty in the process.
"Matrimonial law is varied and complex and each case is completely individual, so client care is always the main focus for us. By their very nature, our cases are always sensitive and real emotions are involved so it's essential for us to strike the right balance between legal expertise and human support."
The firm has reduced its portion of the fees by nearly 40 per cent.
Fiona Lawson-Hughes, head of the firm's family department, added: "Anila is an extremely knowledgeable and capable solicitor who has shown real passion for both the firm and matrimonial law and we know this passion and drive will stand her in good stead in her new role."

• aplomb •
Pronunciation: ê-plahm, ê-plêm • Hear it!
Part of Speech: Noun, mass (no plural)
Meaning: Composure, confidence, coolness, poise, self-control.
Notes: Today's Good Word is an absolute lexical orphan without a single relative: no related adjective or verb. It is a distant historical relative of plumber (see Word History), but neither of these words is derived from the other. Keep an eye on the final B. English doesn't like the cluster MB and only the M is pronounced, unless the two consonants fall into discrete syllables, as in the case of number. Notice that the B is not pronounced in the comparative form of numb (numb-er), but it is in the noun meaning "a cipher", where the syllable break is between the M and B: num-ber.
In Play: Wherever composure and self-confidence are required, look for aplomb: "Miranda played the Mozart fugue with great aplomb and remarkable dexterity." It does, however, emerge in situations where you might not expect it: "Leticia responded to the post-party mess throughout her house with great aplomb, never once losing her temper."
Word History: Today's Good Word goes back to an Old French phrase à plomb "(aligned) with the plumb bob" from plomb "lead, plumb bob". Its sense derives from the use of a lead weight at the end of a string to measure a perfectly vertical line. Anything that is plumb with the bob is perfectly upright and well aligned. French plomb "lead" comes from Latin plumbum, which turns up in several English words. Most of these words have to do with plumbing, which originally consisted of lead pipes held together by lead joints. Since the discovery of lead poisoning, plumbers shifted to iron, copper, and, now, plastic pipes with cemented joints. Down South we still say, "He's plumb crazy," meaning he is perfectly crazy.

FERNDALE, Mich. - A Ferndale man wants to warn others not to fall for a fake lotto scam like he did.
Peter does not want his last name reported. He said he received a letter from Spain telling him he qualified to win $5,500,000 in an international lotto drawing.
The letter showed what appeared to be a former winner. The letter told Peter he needed to send $2,000 to help him claim his winnings.
"He was going to come with a diplomat supposedly, pick me up and take me to a bank to do the rest f the paperwork to get me my money," Peter said.
Peter is an older man, disabled and trusting. The scam artists look for just such a victim who believes the alleged winnings will change his and his wife's lives.
"I thought we could pay off the house, she could quit working, because we don't see each mother much. She works the late shift," Peter said.
Peter is embarrassed to admit he did cash a $2,500 check that was sent to him, but is glad he did not try to use the money for a big purchase.
Peter then became worried when someone kept calling him.
"He was kind of intimidating too. Every time he would ask, how's the wife? Why did he keep asking? That made me nervous," Peter said.
Peter's wife started doing research and stopped him from spending any of the money he was sent. The Local 4 Defenders asked Peter how he felt.
"Like a sucker. Thank God my wife was more suspicious than I was," Peter said.
Peter and his wife took their case to the Ferndale police department and filed a report. There may be little police can do, but Peter and his wife want to warn anyone about getting checks in the mail and being asked to cash them. They say it might be just the start of a bigger scam.

A GULF war veteran and his disabled wife who were facing eviction because of the bedroom tax have had a council decision against them overturned.
The couple from Ryedale, who live with their daughter in a three bedroom house, could have been kicked out of the home because the bedroom tax policy said they did not need the third bedroom and Ryedale District Council decided did not qualify for extra cash to help them cover the rent, even though the couple's disabilities mean they cannot share a room.
The husband, a Gulf war veteran left with nerve damage and PTSD by his days in the armed forces, and his wife who has MS, cannot work so had no way of paying the rent shortfall created by the bedroom tax.
They applied for discretionary housing payments (DHP) from Ryedale District Council to cover the extra rent needed, but were turned down and saw the council suggest they move to smaller home, take in a lodger, or earn an income to find the money.
But now lawyers have successfully challenged that decision, arguing the local authority did not apply the DHP policies properly, hadn't taken the family's needs into account, and discriminated against them.
Fiona McGhie, the specialist solicitor in Irwin Mitchell's Public Law department who represented the family, said: "We are delighted that we have been able to help this vulnerable family get the payments they deserve, after the original refusal placed a huge strain on them.
"Ryedale District Council rejected the application on grounds which were simply not viable for this family – a clear reminder that local authorities need to give proper consideration to applications and apply policies to the individual circumstances of each case.
"This family, which already faced so much hardship due to disability, was confronted with the prospect of potentially being evicted from their home as a result of an application rejection that should not have happened in the first place."

NO charges have been brought against a member of staff at the Bright Kids Nursery at Crabbs Cross, Redditch, who was arrested last month (February).
Detective Inspector Dean Jones said that following a full investigation no offences had been established. A person arrested on February 4 had been on police bail but that had now been cancelled and no further action would be taken.
Det Insp Jones said that after the matter had been brought to their attention police had worked with the nursery and partner agencies to ensure children's safeguarding processes were followed from the outset.
He added: "We hope people will feel reassured that we have carried out a thorough investigation and we would like to thank parents and everyone else connected with the nursery for their co-operation and understanding throughout our inquiries."

Balmain Fall 2011
Balmain's Christophe Decarnin was a no-show backstage at his collection, and the official word seemed to be that he was suffering from exhaustion. If so, it was difficult to determine quite where the energies had been spent on this one-note collection which lacked the designer's emphatic signature and pointed to a more significant absence during its creation—one that leaves a question mark hovering over this storied house.
There were certainly allusions to the designer's characteristic rock-star attitude and love of sparkle, imbued this season with the spirit of a glam rock David Bowie (which glittered here and there in Milan, too), from the skintight jeans in what looked like liquid platinum or an extraordinary metallic with multicolored reflections that resembled the liquid blobs of a lava lamp, to the thickly crusted embroideries.
The classical geometry of some of those that Pierre Balmain used in the 1960s from great embroidery houses such as Lesage may have been the starting point for the relentless bejeweled, striped embellishments of rhinestone, Lurex thread, and what looked like shards of disco balls that coruscated over long-sleeved minidresses and skirts, stiffly tailored jackets, and even some football shoulder pads supporting a skimpy silk tee.
Shaggy goat fur used as epaulets on a Lycra jumpsuit or to fringe a Lurex scarf caught the texture mix of the season, and the lace-up ankle boots were on theme too, although the white leather examples might have pushed ironic bad taste a little too far.
The "Xanadu" finale numbers included skintight unitards ignited with rhinestone lightning bolts that evoked the eighties fantasias of Fabrice, slashed suede, and acres of Oroton (the chain mail so beloved of Gianni Versace), as well as a potentially cool-looking combination of a sleeveless men's bib-front cotton dress shirt worn with a solid rhinestone skirt. The skimpy suspenders however, didn't seem to support its considerable weight, so the model appeared to be clinging onto it for dear life—Xanadon't?

It could rank as one of the shortest retirements in the history of music. Within 24 hours of reports that Kylie Minogue, our original global pop princess, was to quit singing and focus on acting, the claim has been well and truly quashed. Twice.
Britain's Sunday Mirror reported that Kylie had "called a halt to her music career" and would devote herself to acting, under the bombshell headline "Kylie Minogue quits singing". The paper also reported she had split from her long-time manager Terry Blamey.
The news of her retirement from music sent shockwaves across Twitter yesterday afternoon, with some questioning the wisdom of such a decision. After all, it didn't work for Madonna, and even Justin Timberlake has come back to releasing albums. So why would our Kylie be any more successful as an actor?
Then Kylie's official Twitter account, @kylieminogue, refuted the claim, with a post reading: "#lovers #notquitting", followed by tiny icons of a love heart, followed by a microphone, a movie camera and a bright red lipstick print. Translation: I love music, I love film, I love youse all. At least that's the way her Twitter followers read her message. Their response was immediate, effusive and unanimous: "Thanx God!!!!" said one. "Phew! I LOVE YOU KYLIE x" said another. American Jared Braden, who runs pop website Allure of Sound, said what many were thinking: "I figured that!"
Unfortunately, none of this stopped several media outlets pushing the "Kylie quits" bombshell on television and online today, powered somewhat ironically by constant retweets of the rumour. The incorrect rumour.
Now her Australian publicist has put the claim to rest, expanding on the #notquitting tweet. She told Fairfax: "Kylie was never quitting music and she tweeted that overnight."
Blamey's original media statement said as much: "Kylie has decided to pull back slightly from the pressures of her career and devote more time to herself and her acting career. This is not to say she will be retiring from music, just taking a bit of a break."
So yes, she's hoping to expand her acting career – at the same time as continuing her pop career, albeit at a slower pace. It all makes sense - she is 45 this year.
The moral of the story? News breaks fast on Twitter, but like all media, take care with your sources.

|Forums: Index → Narutopedia Discussion → Technique pages
So I've noticed that the technique articles on Narutopedia don't appear to follow the same standard layout as every other article. I am proposing that we standardise the layout of technique pages with something like this:
{{Infobox}} The {{Tlx|Translation|'''X'''|kanji|romaji}} technique is/was a techique created by Y which Z. == Background == technique background here (creator, why it was created, steps to creation (if known) etc) == Usage == Information about how the technique is used === Advantages === Any advantages of the technique, if applicable. === Disadvantages === Any disadvantages of the technique, if applicable. == Trivia == Any noteworthy trivia points. == References == <references />
X = page name Y = creator of the technique Z = what it does in brief Discuss below, thanks --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel 18:20, August 6, 2013 (UTC)
That would be cool to dedicate pages to techniques. Offensive capabilities and defensive as well. Sorta like how we all know susuanoo isn't the perfect defensive. Example would be how Garra easily grabbed madara from his susanoo or how obito grabbed sasuke. Or how kakashi's kamui was blocked by obitos kamui. IRONFINGERZ2 (talk)IRONFINGERZ2~~
- There are already pages for every known technique on here....
- Also, you have clearly not understood this proposal in any form at all: this proposal is to standardise a page layout for the technique pages, not to discuss the differences between techniques. --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel 19:56, August 6, 2013 (UTC)
You want a standard of how all techniques should be seen on the pages for characters or what not? So it's an identity thing that you want to see.IRONFINGERZ2 (talk)IRONFINGERZ2IRONFINGERZ2 (talk)
- Kinda. Anyone else want to drop an opinion on this proposal ? --Speysider Talk Page | My Image Uploads | Tabber Code | Channel 10:22, August 7, 2013 (UTC)

Area 23a lines up hybrid release for Silver Circle
The event-based distributor will premiere the animated thriller on Mar 22 in New York ahead of theatrical expansion to major markets and a series of special event screenings.
Pasha Roberts directed Silver Circle from a screenplay by Steven Schwartz that takes place in a dystopian future controlled by the Federal Reserve.
"In addition to comic book fans, Silver Circle will connect with anyone who has been paying attention to the fiscal cliff, the liberty movement – which was officially formed around Congressman Ron Paul's presidential bid – and American politics in general," said Roberts.
"Our animated indie film brings this story to a broader audience – an audience who is excited to see a feature film which offers a deep look at the Federal Reserve and the power it wields."
Silver Circle has already screened at Comic-Con conventions in New York and New Orleans.
"We are excited to be partnering with Pasha on Silver Circle, the film tour will also include Q&As with celebrity panellists, special edition comic book giveaways, music performances and film-themed after parties," said Area 23a co-founder Kirt Eftekhar.

Kelly Wearstler Launches Ready to Wear Collection
Kelly Wearstler's New Ready-to-Wear Collection Interpreted For the Home
Kelly Wearstler may have made a name for herself as an interior designer, but this month she firmly planted herself in the fashion world with the debut of her first ready-to-wear collection. Don't judge the girl by the questionable crimped hair she sported on Top Design; she's got serious sartorial talent.
"So much of my influence in interior design comes from fashion," she says, "and everything relating to fashion, from jewelry, which can be reminiscent of sculpture, to the colors and silhouettes that I find in clothing. This feels like a natural evolution." It's so natural, in fact, that taking the first peek at her new line, I couldn't help be reminded of a few specific pieces of decor I'd seen. Take a peek at how the pieces look when interpreted into the world of home decor!

TINY toddlers braved the wet and rainy weather on Saturday to help raise money for vulnerable children's charity Barnardo's.
Wrapped up in their waterproofs nearly 30 children took part in Worcester's own Big Toddle event, which saw them walk round Gheluvelt Park.
They set off around 2pm on Saturday afternoon.
The event was following a space theme but because of the weather most of the outfits were covered with clothing to keep out the water.
One of the organisers, Hollie Packer, was manning the cake stand at the event before launching the toddle.
She said so far they had raised £800 and by the end of the day they were sure the total would be around £1,000 for the whole event.
Organisers said: "It's in aid of Barnardo's. The Big Toddle events happen across the country but often at zoos, which we don't have here.
"We are hoping to do it next year as well, maybe later in the summer so it's bigger and better and we would hope with better weather.
"We would like to thank everyone who has helped us with the event, especially Matt Croft at the Co-Operative and Lynsey for her face painting. Also Tom Packer from Malvern Cops, who has brought his police car down today in his own time for the children to enjoy."

I have been interested in sleep learning for a while now and I just opened a new forum for others also interested in this type of research.
The First project is to program a belief that will make you a genius.
We live in a society that is used to taking a pill for every problem they have, while in most clinical studys a placebo is about 50% as strong as the real thing.
Why Does a placebo work 50% as well as the real thing? because the power of the mind and the belief in the mind.
What I am trying to research is learning a new belief on a subconscious level while you sleep.
My method is 2 program a belief that a vitamin is a drug that will make you smart. :)

Saint Leo Regular Season Draws to a Close
SAINT LEO, Fla. – The Saint Leo softball team is concluding their 2011 regular season schedule with a three-game series against the Eckerd College Tritons. Game one is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. from University Stadium on the Campus of Saint Leo.
In their last time out, Saint Leo (23-28, 7-14 SSC) fell victim to the fifth-ranked Rollins College Tars as they were swept in a three game series last Thursday and Friday from their friendly confines.
Despite the conference setbacks, the Lions still have a chance at double digit conference wins, a feat that has not been accomplished since 2008.
The end of the regular season also brings with it the final home games for the seniors. Tomorrow evening, before game one, the Lions and the Saint Leo Department of Athletics will honor five graduating seniors for their contributions, Elysha Agen, Sarah Boyd, Ana Castillo, Jaime Walker, and Ashton Whidden.
The Tritons enter the series sporting a 14-37 overall mark and currently possess a 2-19 SSC record. Batting .236 as a team, the Tritons are led by senior Kirsten Cox and her .289 average.
In the circle, Eckerd has two pitchers with five wins apiece in Kaitly Dougherty and Alex Sasso.
Dating back to 2009, the Lions have won five of their last seven against the Tritons.
For live game coverage of the series, please visit the MULTIMEDIA link of SaintLeoLions.com.

A FLOOD guru has written an open letter to the Prime Minister about the perils of flooding and has demanded he do more to help victims.
Mary Dhonau, a community flood consultant from Worcester, has told David Cameron lessons must be learnt from the most recent floods which devastated parts of this county. Mr Cameron visited Upton last month when he announced £10 million support plan for flood-hit businesses and grants of up to £5,000 for flood victims.
Mrs Dhonau, herself a victim of flooding, wrote to Mr Cameron: "You (and many politicians before you) have repeatedly said that "Lessons will be learnt". Will they? When the media have ceased pursuing you and the brief 'sympathy visits' to all affected areas are over, will you remember your promise? Or will you move onto the next big thing, forgetting the many people who will be out of their homes for at least nine months, as well the farmers and the businesses struggling to keep going?
"Flooding is the biggest natural risk we face in this country. The recent floods have shown us that water has the ability to bring vast swathes of this country to its knees – it is the silent burglar that wrecks so many people's lives."
Mrs Dhonau said people were already at breaking point as a result of flooding and urged the PM to invest much more in flood risk management and told the PM trees were the best form of natural flood management.
She said: "The recent period of extreme weather has given us a grim foretaste of what this would be like. Worse still, this winter's flooding crisis was not a 'one off' – the last decade has seen numerous 'big' floods and each one seems to get worse.
"Please stop building on the flood plain. No one in their right mind (I hope) would put in planning permission to build a housing development in the river, so why build houses where the river naturally goes when it floods?
"If we have to build on the flood plain, we must insist developers build houses that are sustainable – make them resilient to flooding, make use of sustainable urban drainage (something your government is currently dragging their heels on) using green roofs, grey water recycling and the like. We also have to slow down the runoff from developments, because urban flooding is on the increase - we've paved over, tarmacked and concreted over far too much of the country already. "
She told the PM she welcomed the grants of £5,000 to enable householders to make their own homes properly resilient to flooding but urged him to stop any planned cutbacks for the Environment Agency (who, incidentally, did a sterling job during the floods).
She wrote: "You have a chance to reshape our future – please do so."

We are two days away from the official start of hurricane season and we've already had two named storms. I've been getting questions, like this one, about how busy our hurricane season will be:
"It's not quite June 1st and we're already into the "B" in storm names. I'm scared for this season. What are the powers that be saying as far as their season forecast?" -- Marivonne
This is a good example of believe what I say and not what you see. All of the hurricane forecasts pretty much have an average amount of storms forming this hurricane season. The 30-year average is 12 storms per year, six becoming hurricanes and two major storms, category 3 or higher.
So how can we have an average number of storms form if we already have such a fast start? According to NOAA, the answer is simple: "In addition to near-average sea surface temperatures across much of the tropical Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea, known as the Main Development Region. Two factors now in place that can limit storm development, if they persist, are: strong wind shear, which is hostile to hurricane formation in the Main Development Region, and cooler sea surface temperatures in the far eastern Atlantic."
Ocean temperatures need to be at least 80 degrees 125 feet deep for a tropical storm to form. A cooler ocean would translate to a less active hurricane season.
But what does this mean for us in southeast Texas? Nothing! Here's why: It's not the number of storms that is important, IT'S THE IMPACT! It only takes one storm a hurricane season to be devastating. The last two hurricane seasons saw a record number of storms form (19 in 2010 and 18 in 2011), but only one hurricane hit the United States. The last two seasons were incredibly active, but there was no impact for Texas. Twenty years ago, Category 5 Hurricane Andrew hit Miami. It was one of six named storms to form that season. In 1993, category 3 Hurricane Alicia made a direct hit on us. It was one of only four storms to form that season.
It's not the number of storms that matter, it's the impact, so we should all prepare for one. Does your family have a hurricane plan and kit? I hope so.

text: Updated to include comment from MetroPCS and T-Mobile and corrected information regarding PSAM proxy. NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - When it comes to opposing the merger of T-Mobile USA and MetroPCS ( PCS), struggling billionaire hedge fund manager John Paulson of Paulson & Co. says it's about debt, not greed. In a strongly worded letter on Wednesday, Paulson, a 9.9% shareholder in MetroPCS, said that a characterization of MetroPCS shareholders as 'greedy' by T-Mobile CEO John Legere is inaccurate and fails to address the poor economics of the merger between the wireless providers. Paulson, a famed merger arbitrageur, notes in the letter that his hedge fund has cast support to 99% of acquisitions among the its holdings. This one is different as a result of the leverage in the combination of T-Mobile and MetroPCS , and a poor stock conversion that will effectively give T-Mobile a 74% stake in the combined company. Paulson "strenuously objects to T-Mobile CEO John Legere's characterization of MetroPCS shareholders as greedy because they believe the current terms of the merger are poor for MetroPCS shareholders," wrote the fund in a March 27 letter. T-Mobile CEO John Legere characterized MetroPCS shareholders opposing the merger as greedy at a conference in New York on Tuesday. "It will be approved despite the greedy hedge funds that are trying to take a double-dip out of that process," Legere said at the conference. But some MetroPCS investors disagree. They highlight $15 billion in debt that will be part of the deal. "MetroPCS shareholders are left with a subordinated minority stake in an over-leveraged equity stub," wrote Paulson & Co. on Wednesday. Paulson believes that a fair deal would give MetroPCS shareholders an added $5.58 a share for their holdings to go on top of the proposed merger. The current proposal gives MetroPCS shareholders $4.08 in cash and half of a share of the combined company. MetroPCS valued the total deal at between $16.50 and $18.80 a share in a recent proxy filing. Currently, MetroPCS shares fell over 1% in Wednesday trading and stand at $10.53, indicating a steep discount to the company's projections. As MetroPCS's largest shareholder, Paulson maintained opposition to the proposed merger, which will go up for a vote on April 12, after receiving key antitrust approvals earlier in 2013. P. Schoenfeld Asset Management, another MetroPCS shareholder, said in several press releases that the merger piles too much debt on the combined companies and creates unnecessary risk for existing shareholders. The asset manager is running a proxy campaign to reject the merger proposal in its current structure. Madison Dearborn Partners, the second largest MetroPCS shareholder with an 8.3% stake, is likely to support the deal. James N. Perry, Jr is currently a director at both MetroPCS and Madison Dearborn. Legere was in New York on Tuesday to unveil T-Mobile's so-called Simple Choice plan, which will bring the iPhone 5 to customers at a low cost and without the cumbersome contracts offered by the likes of Verizon ( VZ) and AT&T ( ATT). T-Mobile's long-expected iPhone plan has been baked into the forecasts of some MetroPCS shareholders who oppose the company's merger. Those investors highlight merger integration costs and the operational challenges of growing a network to handle increasing smartphone usage as added reason to cut back on the debt of the combined companies. "We're confident in the proposed combination with T-Mobile and the stockholder value it creates," a MetroPCS spokesperson said. "The proposed combination is the best strategic alternative for the company and its stockholders."

|FYI — February 2005
|By Brad Dunn
A Word With... Norm Abram
Q: What are your earliest boating memories?
Q: If you started with a nine-footer, what are you cruising around in today?
Q: Where do you typically go?
Q: Does being a master carpenter help you on the water?
Q: Ever think about starting a new program called This Old Boat?
Q: What do you enjoy most about cruising?
Give 'Em a Break
Fines start at $65 if you're caught by a local law enforcement agency and $150 if you're busted in a federally protected zone. However, most of the statewide speed zones are only in effect during the high season of manatee migration, which takes place November 15 to March 31. After that, your throttle can return to its regular position.
Most boaters in Florida live near manatee slow zones, but if you're trying to plot your next cruise away from them, check out www.floridaconservation.org for a complete map. Actual speed limits vary, but most areas only allow you to go "slightly faster than a no-wake zone."
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation says it counted 2,568 manatees across the state in 2004, down from 3,029 the previous year.

HIMLEY hit the bottom of the Birmingham Premier League after what captain Greg Wright described as the team's worst ever batting display.
Himley travelled to Brockhampton last Saturday as they looked to kick-start their season following a disappointing start.
The visitors won the toss and put Brockhampton into bat in the reduced overs contest.
Himley bowled well to keep their opposition to a total of 109 for their 23 overs.
A 47 from Brockhampton's Chris Boroughs and a 34 from William Barrett was the highlight of the home side's innings.
However, Himley's opportunity to claim a much-needed victory was soon to slip from grasp after a disastrous batting collapse.
They were bowled out for just 58 with Bilaal Hussain top scoring with just 13.
Skipper Greg Wright said: "We were pleased with the first part and kept them to an achievable score.
"We gave ourselves a very good chance of winning the game and getting our season back on track. However, we then threw that away with what can only be described as the worst batting display from any Himley side I have ever seen.
"We are not helping ourselves and are putting more and more pressure on ourselves by pushing the self-destruct button whenever we play.
"We have to show more guts and determination and play with a lot more intelligence. That is the only way we are going to improve.
"They players are fully aware of our situation and need to step up and be counted, now more so than ever."
Himley are hoping Worcestershire's Tom Kohler-Cadmore will return for this Saturday's home game against fourth-placed Knowle and Dorridge.
Ben Smith is also set to return from retirement after making himself available once again.
The Stourbridge Road club are due to take on Kidderminster Victoria in the T20 Challenge Cup tonight.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. - Police on Tuesday released a composite sketch of the man a couple says attacked them with a baseball bat on a nature trail of a city park on Sunday.
A man and woman in their 60s told the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office they were at the Castaway Island Preserve near San Pablo Road South and Beach Boulevard around 3:15 p.m. Sunday when they were attacked.
The woman told Channel 4 they asked the man what he was doing and started to call 911 when he attacked them.
She said the man punched and kicked her fiance, causing him to lose consciousness. She says he also kicked her in the back of the head.
Police said the woman was OK but the man had to be rushed to the hospital. He was treated and released, but had a black eye, cuts and bruises on his face.
The woman said she wasn't sure, but she didn't think her attacker used the baseball bat on them.
The woman's daughter said she's lucky they weren't killed.
"That park is a place where a lot of women go by themselves to go walk their dog," she said. "I wouldn't recommend anyone going out there alone. [My mother] is just having a recurring of the scene."
Police used K-9s and a helicopter to look for the suspect, but didn't find anyone. On Monday, three officers were patrolling the city-owned park for safety.
The couple described their attacker a black man in his late teens or early 20s wearing a black hoodie sweat shirt and blue jeans.
Anyone with information about the attack is asked to call the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office at 904-630-0500 or First Coast Crime Stoppers at 866-845-TIPS (8477).

Spark Plug Plane Paperweight
From his workspace in Portland, OR, where discarded materials emerge as works of inspired art, Brian Mock weaves his industrial magic to the delight of all around him. Of course, it's not really anything supernatural that allows Mock to create what many have dubbed as metalic masterpieces, but a commitment to precision and detail on every one of his creations. The end result is something to behold, a means of finding beauty where you might least expect it. Mock begins by sketching out a rudimentary design, or framework for what's to come, then measures each part to ensure a perfect fit, both aesthetically and practically.

"The magnets turned out even better than I expected. All the pictures looked really good with the chevron background and I received so many compliments."
"My fiance and myself are doing a non traditional wedding. We didn't exactly want a save the date or an invitation. But we did want a cute and crafty announcement. This fit us so well. The colors in the images I provided really popped and I used a purple backdrop on it. It came before it was suppose to, and I'm so pleased with my purchase. The quality of the magnet is also noticeable. I highly recommend this product and company. I will be back for future purchases for sure."
"I love our Save-the-Dates! The colors are exactly what we picked out and I love that we got to see a proof of precisely what we wanted. The magnet works perfectly and the photos came out looking gorgeous! The first person we gave one to was so excited that it was magnetized and said that the pictures were really great quality! I cannot say enough good things about this product."
"I loved the quick and easy personalization of this product. I also loved that I was able to receive the item before the date given to me. They are of great quality and look amazing."
"This save the date turned out amazing! The color matched perfectly to my wedding color and it is so classy and pretty. Friends and family loved it :) completely happy with the turn out!!!"
