The scene of a crash between a tourist bus and a car which has left 18 people injured on Victoria's Phillip Island was chaotic, emergency officials say.
As help arrived late on Saturday night, the group of scared and injured Chinese holidaymakers were huddled on the roadside, their bus had careered into the trees and two people were trapped inside the extensively damaged car.
Because of the number of casualties, a state emergency response plan was activated and a roadside triage tent set up to treat them.
The most seriously hurt, two teenagers, were flown by air ambulance to The Alfred hospital in Melbourne.
Police believe the sedan was travelling north on Pyramid Rock Road at Ventnor when it collided at an intersection with the bus which had been heading east on Back Beach Road just after 10pm (AEDT).
The bus, carrying 32 Chinese tourists, their guide and the driver, then veered off the road into a paddock.
It is understood the group was returning from visiting Phillip Island's famous penguin parade.
Fortunately three doctors, including an emergency physician and several nurses who were working with St John Ambulance at the nearby Tough Mudder event, were able to rush to the scene.
Ambulance Victoria said the driver of the car and his passenger were the most seriously injured and were flown to Melbourne.
The 19-year-old driver has neck and facial injuries and his 17-year-old female passenger has arm and abdominal injuries.
Phillip Island ambulance paramedic Mal McCann arrived to find a "chaotic" scene which was exacerbated by language difficulties, he said.
"It was a pretty full-on scene," Mr McCann told AAP.
"You had a bus through the trees, groups of obviously foreign tourists right on the side of the road, very scared, and an extensively damaged vehicle on the other side with people trapped in it."
Eight were taken by road ambulance to the Dandenong Hospital with minor injuries including cuts, abrasions, bruising and strains.
Another eight were treated at the scene.

2012 Ford Ranger Overview
The 2012 Ford Ranger is slightly larger than the Ranger currently being sold in the United States. However, according to a recent Ford press release, the 2012 Ranger is not slated for sale in the United States. The new Ranger is considered a "global" vehicle, in that it is being produced without country-specific variants. Even though the press release made no mention of sales within the United States, it only seems logical that Ford will eventually sell them stateside, especially considering that the Ranger currently selling in the US is scheduled for termination by next year.
The 2012 Ranger, officially known as the T6 test truck, was claimed to have greater power and enhanced fuel economy due to a new family of Ford engines. Ford also stated that the vehicle has been tested in places like Australia, Middle Eastern deserts and European Alps, logging over one million kilometers of test driving.
Known Features "" Test trucks were spotted configured in both right-hand and left-hand steering models. The vehicles appeared both longer and wider than the Ranger currently being sold overseas. According to the design and appearance of the vehicle, it would fit just below the Ford F-150 in the Ford family of trucks. Some of the test vehicles that were photographed contained various types of engines, including gasoline burning and diesel. There is speculation that the new Ranger will be sporting a newly designed Ford engine. The engine specified was a 1.6-liter four-cylinder engine that was direct injected and turbocharged. The EcoBoost engine is stated as delivering 175 HP and providing 180 ft-lbs. of torque.
Markets "" The 2012 Ranger is going to be sold in South America, the Asian-Pacific territories and South Africa. The vehicle is scheduled to incorporate a 2.2-liter diesel engine with four cylinders and turbocharger, or a 3.2-liter In-Line five cylinder turbo-diesel that can produce 200 HP and 347 ft-lbs. of torque. The impressive specs of the 3.2-liter engine place it in class with some existing V8 engines when comparing horsepower and torque.
Trim and Styling "" The Ranger utilizing the 3.2-liter engine will come with a six-speed transmission that is available in either manual or automatic configurations. The smaller 2.2-liter engine comes paired with a manual five-speed transmission. The interior design is keeping with Ford's global styling, and features centrally integrated controls and an information screen that is mounted up high. Additional design cues were said to have been taken from Ford's F-150, Bosch and DeWalt power tools, and G-Shock Watches. The 2012 Ranger also includes updated connectivity features such as iPod connector, Bluetooth technology and steering wheel controls. The vehicle will be sporting a new style front facia/grill/headlight design/rear lamp cluster/hood.
Final Word "" Apparently Ford is hoping that truck buyers in the United States will shift from the Ranger to the F-150 class of vehicles. The desire is to make the Ranger a heavily purchased and desired global truck, while Ford modifies the F-150 lineup to keep up with buyer needs, tastes and a growing need for fuel-efficient vehicles.

Einhorn throws one-hitter as Glenn tops Triton 11-0
BOURBON — The John Glenn Falcons played a near perfect game in all three phases as they routed the Triton Trojans 11-0 on the Trojans' home turf Friday night.
Senior Mark Einhorn threw a one-hitter with nine strikeouts and one walk, with the lone hit not coming until the sixth inning, and the Falcons played solid defense behind him, not committing a single error in the game.
"Mark threw his best game of the season for us. I thought Mark had great command of all of his pitches," said Falcons' coach John Nadolny. "Drew McDonald made two nice plays for us in the hole for us. This is the way we can play. I hope we have turned the corner a bit."
The Falcons' bats also came to play with 10 hits in the game.
Glenn started the game by scoring three runs in the first inning with Einhorn singling and then stealing second, and Kyle Liedtky knocking him home with a single of his own. Liedtky then advanced to second on a wild pitch. Justin Gierlowski followed that with a walk. Then with runners on first and second and two out, Austin Bloss singled, which brought both runners home while Bloss was picked off at second.
Glenn continued the scoring in the second. The first two batters of the inning walked, and then Ryan Price knocked a run home with a single of his own, moving another runner to third. Another run was scored on a Drew McDonald sacrifice fly.
The Triton defense held the Falcons scoreless in the third as Triton pitcher Jayden Hargrave forced a couple of fly outs and struck the third batter out.
Leading 6-0 in the top of the fourth, the Glenn batters were at it again. After four straight balls, Triton made a pitching change to Seth Glingle. Drew McDonald then hit a double, moving the runner to third. With one out in the inning, Kyle Liedtky drove in both runs with a single up the middle, finishing the night with a team-leading four RBIs in the game. Glenn would tack on three more in the sixth to end the game in six.
"John Glenn is a solid team. They played well," said Triton coach Randy Younis. "We are kind of a young team, and we're trying to find our way. Some games we look pretty decent, other games we look like we are young. We need to hit more consistently and put the ball in play so we have an opportunity to get base runners on."
Coach Nadolny hopes this game is a sign of things to come for the Falcons as the season winds down with only two weeks remaining.
"We play games like we did tonight, and then we play games where you'd think we didn't even practice. It's been a bouncy two weeks for us. Going into sectionals in these last two weeks, we have to get some more consistency, especially on defense," explained Nadolny. "We went 2-1 this week, so that is a good week for us. You want to be playing your best baseball going into the sectionals. This is a good start for us."

Miners hoping to string some wins together.
With the heavy lifting of its schedule mostly out of the way, the Missouri S&T football team is hoping to string some victories together, starting on Saturday.
The Miners end a three-game road swing on Saturday when it travels to Owensboro, Ky. to take on Kentucky Wesleyan in Great Lakes Valley Conference (GLVC) play. Kickoff is set for 3 p.m.
It will be Wesleyan's Homecoming Game.
After winless Wesleyan, S&T takes on 4-1 Saint Joseph's and 3-2 Truman State before ending the campaign with three squads without winning records.
S&T comes in with a 1-4 overall and 0-1 GLVC mark. Of its four defeats, three came against nationally-ranked Division II foes (Chadron State, Missouri Western and Indianapolis), with the fourth against a tough Lindenwood (3-2) squad.
The Kentucky Wesleyan Panthers are 0-5 and last week opened league play by falling on the road to Saint Joseph's 35-9 in a weather-shortened game.
Last week S&T was again burned by turnovers in a 34-3 loss to Indianapolis in its GLVC opener. In that game the Miners committed six turnovers, bringing their five-game total in giveaways to 21.
S&T leads the all-time series against the Panthers 9-0, including last season's 47-23 blowout in Rolla. In the nine previous games the Miners have averaged 45 points per game against Wesleyan.
The Panthers are averaging a GLVC-low 262 yards per game after being held to just 47 total yards against Saint Joseph's last week.
Wesleyan has scored just eight offensive touchdowns this year, with senior H-back Jeff Ward responsible for six of them.
Ward has a team-high 31 receptions for 399 yards and ranks seventh nationally in all-purpose yards with 1,009. He has four TD catches and has also returned a kickoff and a punt for TDs.
Senior quarterback Will Barnes was 15-for-26 for 158 yards in the first half against S&T last season before suffering an injury. He returned to the Panther lineup last week and went 8-for-16 for 63 yards.
Senior running back Devin Le'Gall leads the Panther ground game with 318 rushing yards.
S&T's No. 1 goal is to cut down the turnovers. Sophomore quarterback Reed Brown has completed 57.1 percent of his passes for 975 yards, three TDs and 12 interceptions.
Miner junior wideout Melvin Stovall has 32 catches for 297 yards and a TD while junior wideout Nick Taylor and junior slot Leon Moody each have 20 receptions.
Sophomore Zenel Hudson leads S&T in rushing yards with 409 yards but injured an ankle last week and is out for Saturday.
Senior linebacker Chris Emesih leads the S&T defense with 37 tackles while junior linebacker Zach Melber and senior free safety Mark Hopkins each have 30.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. - MIT showcased a balanced attack along with a strong service game in its first-ever meetings with the women's volleyball teams from Lesley University and Emerson College on Thursday. The Engineers (8-3) opened the tri-match by defeating Lesley, 30-13, 30-11, 30-12. MIT's success continued as it swept Emerson, 30-16, 30-17, 30-15.

A New Paradigm: Partnerships and Rights in Forest Investments
Report of the Side Event '"Investing in Locally Controlled Forestry" by The Forests Dialogue
Partnerships for collaborative solutions between investors and rights-holders can mobilize unused natural resources, improve forest protection, and promote sustainable development. The Forests Dialogue (TFD) presented the initiative Investing in Locally Controlled Forestry (ILCF) at the UN Forum on Forests 10th Session in Istanbul. TFD showed ILCF is different from common investments in natural resources in that it promotes a paradigm shift from 'capital seeks natural resources and needs labor' to 'rights-holders manage natural resources and seek capital and partners.'
Why is ILCF relevant?
A growing trend toward local control and rights for rural communities and indigenous groups unleashes increasing support from investment funds and philanthropic foundations for community-driven initiatives. Besides enhancing the…

Consulting firm Deloitte predicts that in 2013 more than 90 percent of user-generated passwords will be vulnerable to hacking.
The company says a combination of bigger computers available to crack passwords, and users who adopt the same password for multiple sites and logins are among the problems.
Even passwords generally considered strong by IT departments, such as those with at least 8 characters including capital letters , lower case letters, numbers and symbols, will be vulnerable.
\"Inadequate password protection may result in billions of dollars of losses, declining confidence in Internet transactions and significant damage to the reputations of the companies compromised by attacks,\" Deloitte\'s Technology, Media & Telecommunications group said in a blog post. \"As the value of the information protected by passwords continues to grow, attracting more hack attempts, high-value sites will likely require additional forms of authentication\" Deloitte added.

NASHVILLE, Tenn - Tennessee State clinched a spot in the 2013 OVC Tournament with an 82-57 win over Morehead State in a Thursday matinee at the Gentry Center.
Senior guard Jasmin Shuler recorded her 1,000th career point with 3:24 remaining. The Clarksville native is the 15th Lady Tiger to score 1,000 points at TSU. Shuler led all players with 19 points, while Kesi Hess added 18 points, 12 of which came from beyond the arc.
Tennessee State (12-14, 8-7 OVC) held the advantage over Morehead State (9-20, 5-10 OVC) for much of the first half, but never held a more than a two possession edge until a run late in the first half. Over the final 4:30 of the half, the Lady Tigers went on a 12-2 run to head into the locker room up 37-28.
TSU closed the door on any hope that MSU had of a second half comeback as the Lady Tigers scored 23 points (6-of-8 from the floor and a perfect 9-for-9 from the line) in five-and-a-half minutes early in the half to take a commanding 60-38 lead.
After shooting 48 percent in the first half, TSU limited the Eagles to 26 percent in the second half.
Destiney Gaston had a strong showing off the bench scoring 14 points and collecting six rebounds in 23 minutes. Simone Hopes also had double figures putting in 12 points along with a career-high 14 boards, including 11 in the second half. Gaston and Hopes' play on the glass played a big part in TSU winning the battle of the boards, 43-34.
The Lady Tigers took advantage of 23 Eagle miscues, turning them into 23 points. TSU also excelled from the charity stripe hitting 23-of-26 from the line.
TSU concludes the regular season on Saturday with a home game vs. Eastern Kentucky (17-8, 11-3 OVC) at 5:30 p.m.

No. 16 Beavers take aim at ColonelsNov 28, 2012 - 4:09 PM Corvallis, OR (Sports Network) - The 16th-ranked Oregon State Beavers will close out their 116th regular season on Saturday afternoon, as they welcome FCS foe Nicholls to Corvallis. This contest was originally supposed to be the season opener for both teams, but was rescheduled due to Hurricane Isaac.
Mike Riley's Beavers opened the season off strong, winning their first six games, including a pair of ranked foes to begin things in Wisconsin and UCLA. The team did struggle down the stretch in Pac-12 play however, with losses to Washington, Stanford and finally last week's 48-24 loss to rival Oregon in this year's e Civil War.
Riley is in no way looking past this game a the bowl season.
"I think that this one (The Nicholls State game) is about the preparation, really wanting to win and setting a tone for the complete identity (of the team)," said Riley. "The identity of a football team lasts for the year, It is felt throughout the course of the season. We are down for the last couple of chapters and we need to talk to the team about putting an exclamation point on who they want to be remembered as. One of the first ways a team is remembered is their record, so we want to make that record as good as we can."
Struggles are something that the Colonels are quite familiar with this season, as Charlie Stubbs's squad has just one win against nine losses. That lone victory came in week three against Evangel (73-17), but was followed by seven straight losses.
This is just the second time ever that Nicholls will be playing a game in the month of December, with the only other time coming in 1986 against Georgia Southern in the Division 1-AA playoffs.
This marks the first-ever meeting between these two teams on the gridiron.
Wins have not come easy for the Colonels, who snapped a 12-game skein with their blowout win over Evangel. The team racked up a Southland Conference record 751 yards in that victory, but it is an anomaly, with the team struggling the rest of the year offensively.
Nicholls enters the season finale averaging just 19.2 ppg and doing so on 349.9 yards of total offense. Quarterback Landry Kann hasn't exactly excelled under center this season. He has completed just 56.5 percent of his passes, for 1,885 yards, with only eight touchdowns against 12 interceptions. As a result, there is no dominant receiver on the outside, as tailback Jesse Turner leads the team with 34 receptions, for 348 yards and two TDs.
Junior tailback Marcus Washington leads a rushing attack that is averaging a modest 123.0 yards per game. The junior is averaging a solid 5.1 yards per carry, pacing the Colonels with 550 yards and six TDs on the ground.
The problems have not been exclusive to the offensive side of the ball for Nicholls, which is allowing 34.9 ppg, on 433.0 yards of total offense. The team has been gashed by both the run (188.9 ypg) and the pass (244.1 ypg) this year, with a mere 11 total sacks through 10 games. The one area the team has produced at times is in creating turnovers, with 21 on the season.
Senior middle linebacker Jordan Piper leads the team with a Southland Conference-best 102 total tackles. Fellow senior Rashar Knight has made the most of his opportunities along the defensive front, with team-highs in TFLs (10.0) and sacks (4.0).
Although the Beavers were unable to match Oregon's offensive firepower last week, not many teams can. Oregon State comes into this contest averaging 420.8 yards of total offense, thanks to a lethal passing attack that is generating 304.1 yards per contest.
Quarterbacks Sean Mannion and Cody Vaz have both seen time under center and have both had their moments. Mannion is listed as the starter for this contest though and has completed 62.9 percent of his passes on the year, for 2,215 yards. The one area the sophomore has struggled with is his ball control, throwing as many touchdowns passes as he has interceptions (13).
Regardless of who is throwing the ball downfield, the target of choice has been senior wideout Markus Wheaton. The 6-foot-1 veteran doesn't get the kind of national publicity that some of the other gifted Pac-12 wideouts receive, but he has had a terrific season to date, leading the team with 76 receptions, for 1,084 yards and 10 TDs, en route to All-Pac-12 First-Team honors.
The ground game plays second-fiddle in Corvallis, but tailback Storm Johnson (768 yards, 4.8 ypc, nine TDs) is more than just serviceable and can provide offensive balance when called upon.
The Oregon State defense has had its ups and downs this season, struggling against the better offenses in the league, while dominating the rest of the competition. On the year, OSU is yielding 21.3 ppg, giving up 365.5 yards of total offense.
Juniors Michael Doctor and Rashaad Reynolds are tied for the team lead with 70 tackles apiece. Doctor has made a habit of creating big plays with 10.0 TFLs, one interception and one fumble recovery. Reynolds likes to mix it up from his right cornerback position and ranks second on the team with three interceptions, trailing only ball hawk Jordan Poyer, who is responsible for six of the team's 17 interceptions. The top playmaker up front is sophomore end Scott Crichton. Of his 40 total tackles, 16 have come behind the line of scrimmage, including a team-high nine sacks. Poyer and Crichton were both tabbed All-Pac-12 First-Team members.
No one has shouted yet.

This week, the trucking industry learned an important lesson about roadway safety. Associated Wholesale Grocers (AWG) and its driver Donald Creed settled a civil lawsuit in Oklahoma for $62.7 million. The suit was filed by the families of eight people who were killed in a June 26, 2009, accident when the truck Creed, who was 76 years old at the time, was driving slammed into the back of a sport utility vehicle stopped on the roadway in a traffic tie-up.
In all, 10 people were killed that day. The SUV was part of a backup that resulted from a minor traffic incident just ahead on Interstate 44 near Miami, OK. According to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), Creed's vehicle never slowed and there was no indication that he did anything to try and avoid the collision.
By most accounts, this appears to be an accident in the truest sense of the word. Attorney Jim Secrest, who represented AWG and Creed in the civil case, said that the AWG truck he was driving included "state-of-the-art" equipment and that Creed himself had "5 million miles without one personal injury accident."
So what went wrong? NTSB attributed the crash to fatigue in its report, along with the lack of onboard technology such as forward collision warning systems and video event recorders. Creed, according to both the report and Secrest, seemed to have followed the letter of the law that day up until that point.
"To this moment, we know what happened, but we don't know why," Secrest said.
Creed had been driving for just over 10 hours that day, which might have played a role, but was still within the legal limits. He was not speeding at the time. Did he black out or doze off? We don't know.
Secrest told me that there was a second claim against AWG that blamed the company for allowing the 76 year old to be driving.
"He's older for a truck driver, we admit that, but you can't fire him for that," Secrest said, adding that that there was nothing in his history that would have indicated he was an unsafe driver.
NTSB proposed a number of items in its report, including the use of recorders, more fatigue management, etc. Because Secrest even admits that Creed remains fuzzy about what happened to this day, no one will ever really know why this tragedy had to occur.
We can legislate all the devices we want into trucks. We can take advantage of all the technology available to us today. We can even institute comprehensive fatigue management programs (Secrest and AWG admitted the company's program may not have been strong enough at the time). What we cannot do is prevent accidents.
If all these devices had been installed in Creed's truck, and if Creed had gone through a thorough fatigue management program, might this horrific tragedy been prevented? It's impossible to know for sure.
Sometimes, accidents just happen.

Post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (GN) is a disorder of the kidneys that occurs after infection with certain strains of Streptococcus bacteria.
Alternative Names
Glomerulonephritis - post-streptococcal; Post-infectious glomerulonephritis
Post-streptococcal GN is a form of
The strep bacterial infection causes the tiny blood vessels in the filtering units of the kidneys (glomeruli) to become inflamed. This makes the kidneys less able to filter the urine.
Post-streptococcal GN is uncommon today because infections that can lead to the disorder are commonly treated with antibiotics. The disorder may develop 1 - 2 weeks after an untreated throat infection, or 3 - 4 weeks after a skin infection.
It may occur in people of any age, but it most often occurs in children ages 6 - 10. Although skin and throat infections are common in children, post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis is a rare complication of these infections.
Risk factors include:
Strep throat
- Streptococcal skin infections (such as
Decreased urine output
- Rust-colored urine
- Swelling (edema), general swelling, swelling of the abdomen, swelling of the face or eyes, swelling of the feet, ankles, hands
- Visible
blood in the urine
Other symptoms that may occur with this disease:
Joint pain Joint stiffnessor swelling
Exams and Tests
A physical examination shows swelling (edema), especially in the face. Abnormal sounds may be heard when listening to the heart and lungs with a stethoscope (
Other tests that may be done include:
Anti-DNase B Kidney biopsy(this is usually not needed) Serum ASO(and streptolysin O) Serum complement levels Urinalysis
There is no specific treatment for post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis. Treatment is focused on relieving symptoms.
- Antibiotics, such as penicillin, should be used to destroy any streptococcal bacteria that remain in the body.
- Blood pressure medications and diuretic medications may be needed to control swelling and high blood pressure.
- Corticosteroids and other anti-inflammatory medications are generally not effective.
You may need to limit salt in the diet to control swelling and high blood pressure.
Outlook (Prognosis)
Post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis usually goes away by itself after several weeks to months.
In small number of adults, it may get worse and lead to chronic kidney failure. Sometimes it can progress to end-stage kidney disease, which requires dialysis and a kidney transplant.
Possible Complications
Acute renal failure
- Chronic glomerulonephritis
- Chronic renal disease
Congestive heart failureor pulmonary edema End-stage renal disease Hyperkalemia
- High blood pressure (hypertension)
Nephrotic syndrome
When to Contact a Medical Professional
Call your health care provider if:
- You have symptoms of post-streptococcal GN
- You have post-streptococcal GN, and you have decreased urine output or other new symptoms
Treating known streptococcal infections may prevent post-streptococcal GN.

About 9,000 shoppers crowded the grounds of the 165-year-old plantation for the 29th annual fall Southdown Marketplace Saturday.
Parking lots overflowed and lines formed at many of the 300 booths as people vied for a chance to sample local and regional fare and buy wares from crafters.
"There's a lot of people," said Catherine Fussell of Bayou Blue. "I've been before but, this time I've noticed more. There's more art. I've already bought three bracelets."
Festival-goers saw an increased number of art vendors at the fair, a move by Southdown Executive Director Rachel Cherry that's intended to diversify the offerings and provide a venue for contemporary expressions of regional culture.
"We like to add diversity to the marketplace every year," Cherry said. "In the past we haven't had as many artist-vendors, and that is something we are going to try to do more of in the future."
It was the first time at the market for James Guidry of Lafayette who sells wine. Guidry said he decided to participate after attending the Oak Alley Plantation crafts show held in Destrehan last weekend.
"We're doing as good or even better than we did at Oak Alley," Guidry said.
Even for vendors who already have products in stores, the crowds provide an opportunity to increase exposure and develop relationships with customers.
Among first-time vendors was St. Matthew's Episcopal Church, which had a tent selling handcrafted gifts to raise money for kitchen equipment, the final expense in a $10 million rebuilding effort. The historic downtown Houma church, built in 1855, was destroyed in a 2010 fire.
"It has been great," said Beulah Rodrigue, director of the church's kitchen. "It seems like people are really interested in helping us rebuild."
Terrebonne High School students raised money selling corn soup.
Children used bottles filled with syrup create intricate candy art for waiting customers, though they occasionally sneaked a taste.
Lockport resident Mary Curole said she was more impressed with Southdown Marketplace than she was with Oak Alley's offerings. She toted a selection of gifts she bought for her daughter, who lives in Massachusetts.
"It's wonderful. I see a variety of crafts that I don't remember seeing before," she said. "Each year it changes, and it just seems to get better every year."
Fair weather brings record-breaking crowds to Southdown Marketplace

SEATTLE -- The shortage of experienced artificial intelligence engineers is so severe that top tech firms are luring professors out of academia with seven-figure salaries.
It's posing a dilemma for the industry: Who will teach a new generation of AI students the tech industry desperately needs?
Professors who have spent much of their adult careers researching AI -- and some never having worked in the private sector -- are being pursued with offers of million dollar stock incentives, cash and preferable working conditions.
"As a result of that we started actually seeing major players in the industry start making insane offers," says Ali Farhadi, an associate professor of computer science and engineering at the University of Washington.
"These days seven digits is not out of the norm," says Farhadi, who admits to receiving million dollar offers.
Luke Zettlemoyer has also seen big offers.
"I think you can go to three or four times your university salary often pretty easily," says Zettlemoyer. who is also an associate professor of computer science and engineering at the University of Washington.
State salary records show some UW professors with an expertise in AI are making upwards to $180,000 per year. But with that salary comes years of research work at some of the most prestigious universities in the world.
Zettlemoyer received his Ph.D. from MIT and did post-doctoral work at the University of Edinburgh.
Hannaneh Hajishirzi is another professor who has seen big offers to leave academia. The UW research assistant professor of electrical engineering believes the demand for professors could hurt the industry going forward.
But she, along with Zettlemoyer and Farhadi, share a big common theme. All of them have turned down the big -money offers.
Hard numbers about the shortage of experienced AI engineers are difficult to find, but professors are seeing more and more temptation to join the private work force.
"Basically companies are reinventing themselves as artificial-intelligence or machine-learning companies because there is such a high demand," says Zettlemoyer.
Which is posing the dilemma for academia and industry. If companies lure the experienced teachers away, students could suffer.
"There is just more and more of a need, the university programs can't grow fast enough to keep up with it," says Zettlemoyer. "If you take everybody ( teachers ) all at once, of course, everything would collapse and can we sustain the pace that's going on right now? We'll see, but it is definitely an issue."
"That's an important fear," says Hajishirzi.
As an alternative, several UW professors have been able to keep one foot in academia and one foot in the private sector.
Both Farhadi and Zettlemoyer work part-time at the Paul G. Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence. It's a Seattle-based nonprofit research firm of AI professionals who work on industry projects, but release their work publicly, free of charge.
They are just missing the million dollar salaries.
"I love this arrangement," says Farhadi. "It's the best of both worlds. On the Allen Institute side, I get the resources I want to launch big projects, and on the university of Washington side I get the freedom to do things."
Farhadi find personal satisfaction in teaching, something he believes he would miss if he went to work full time Google, Amazon, Microsoft who are fighting for experience AI talent.
"To some of us that's a little too restrictive meaning that you may not want to commit to a specific product," says Farhadi.
"There's very much a danger of killing the goose that lays the golden egg," says Oren Etzioni who left his professorship at the University of Washington in 2014 to become CEO of the Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence.
"Our university system is at the core of training the people," says Etzioni. "Now if you hire away the teachers and you hire away the students before they even finish their training, that's a problem."
Zettlemoyer feels the same way and chose personal satisfaction of teaching the next generation artificial intelligence while working on projects he finds beneficial for the entire industry.
"The whole point of research in this area is to make computers do things they couldn't do six months or a year before," says Zettlemoyer. "That's kind of amazing, and it's not clear how far can we push that, but to me that's more valuable than money."
Other professors have found similar arrangements with large tech firms. Hajishirzi consults for several firms and continues to teach.
"We try to play nice with folks like professors at the University of Washington and not steal them" says Etzioni.
Who would have thought a job making computers think like humans would be on par with the salaries of professional athletes?
There's nothing artificial about that.

Automotive Crankshafts
Handling and Machine Tending
Two identical robot systems fully automate the crankshaft pack-out operation and meet all project goals and objectives. Systems achieve desired production rate of approximately one crankshaft every 15 seconds. Depending on whether pack-out requires rust inhibitor station and/or trays, cycle time varies between 9.5 and 20.2 seconds. Average cycle time is approximately 13-14 seconds, which is faster than customer's requirement. Flexible systems handle a wide range of crankshaft models, improve quality and reduce/eliminate dropped and damaged parts. Robust designs and components provide reliable production and maintains uptime average for maximum throughput.
Project Challenges
- Provide robotic systems to pick a wide variety of crankshafts from two inspection conveyors, load and unload a rust inhibitor station (as required), then pack the crankshafts into shipping containers, bins or baskets. Pack-out includes handling part trays, as required.
- Achieve production rate of one crankshaft approximately every 15 seconds/240 per hour. (Cycle time varies depending on required sequence of operations.)
- Crankshafts are batch run. Parts range in size from 449.5-653.5 mm (17.7-25.7") L with 52-73.74 mm (2.05-2.9") dia. and weigh 17.5-34.7 kg (38.6-76.5 lbs).
- Fully automate pack-out process, improve quality and reduce/eliminate dropped and damaged parts.
- Maintain uptime average for maximum throughput using robust designs and components.

Description: The gyuto is modeled after the French pattern chef's knife. Longer and slimmer than the santoku, it is well suited for preparation of meat and other general purpose tasks around the kitchen. The long blade is needed for the sawing motion required to cut meat and the slim profile keeps the weight low and the balance right.
Kansui Ink Pattern/Suminagashi knives feature a Jigane, which is made by repeatedly folding together two layers of different types of stainless steel. This unique process creates a stainless Jigane with 16 exceedingly thin, alternating layers, called Damascus. The Jigane is then forge-welded to both sides of a stainless cobalt steel core and tempered to Rockwell c63º. This process creates a blade of great beauty and strength. The addition of cobalt and manganese to the high-carbon steel core greatly increases durability and ease of sharpening. These knives are perfect for restaurant and heavy home use. They will never tarnish or rust. Pakawood handles are riveted to the full length tang. Each blade comes razor sharp.

Ernest Borgnine, who turns 94 in January, is having the time of his life.
With a new film out this month (and several others in the can), the Hamden-born, Connecticut-raised actor is finding no lack or work, or awards.
In January, the Oscar-winning actor will receive the prestigious Screen Actors Guild Award. (Betty White won it last, for 2010.) And on Saturday he returns to his home state to talk about his life on stage, screen and television at Sacred Heart University in Fairfield.

I am fascinated by debt: the advance of cash today against the mere promise of payment in the future. A promise that depends crucially on trust and knowing who the borrower is. For that, financial institutions rely mainly on credit bureaus. But not every country has a perfectly functioning credit bureau, in which case access to credit suffers.

BPD makes arrest in abduction case
On Wednesday December 19th, 2012 the Borger Police Department investigated a reported Kidnapping of an adult victim. The alleged victim came to the Borger Police Department to report that they had been held against their will by Mark Jackson, later identified fully as Mark Alan Jackson, 44 years of age, of Borger. The incident was reported to have taken place at 400 South Hedgecoke Street, where Jackson had been currently staying. The victim and Jackson knew each other, therefore this was not a "Stranger Abduction". Officers promptly continued their investigation at Jackson's current residence on Hedgecoke Street, where Officers collected evidence related to the incident.On Thursday morning December 20th, 2012, Detectives with Borger Police Department obtained an Arrest Warrant for Jackson, charging Jackson with the Offense of Kidnapping. Shortly after obtaining the Arrest Warrant, Jackson was located at the residence on South Hedgecoke Street and was placed in custody without incident. Jackson was transported to the Borger Police Department where he was processed and incarcerated into the City of Borger Jail Facility for the Kidnapping Warrant. Kidnapping is a Felony of the Third Degree and carries a Sentence of up to 10 years in State Prison. Jackson was later transported to the Hutchinson County Jail in Stinnett where he was incarcerated in that facility. Jackson was incarcerated in the Hutchinson County Jail in Stinnett with a Bond Amount set at $50,000.00.Jackson is a Convicted Sex Offender, who currently registers with the City of Borger Police Department, and is also listed on the Texas Department of Public Safety Sex Offender Website. The Texas DPS Public Sex Offender Website list Jackson's Risk Level as High and mandates him to register Annually for Life. The DPS Public Sex Offender Website lists two charges for Jackson, both being the charge of Indecency with a Child by Exposure. One incident occurred in 2003, where Jackson was sentenced to 5 years in State Prison. The other incident occurred in 1987, where Jackson was placed on 5 years Probation. Jackson's Sex Offender information, along with any other Registered Sex Offenders, can be found at: https://records.txdps.state.tx.us/SexOffender/PublicSite/Application/Sea... Type=National.While this incident was not a "Stranger Abduction", the Borger Police Department would like to urge all Citizens to always be vigilant to their surroundings and safety at all times, especially during the Holidays. The website listed above is available to the Public, and is always updated frequently, so that residents can be aware of any Sex Offenders in the area. The Borger Police Department has an active and aggressive Sex Offender Registration Program and works frequently with the District Attorney's Office to promptly Prosecute those Sex Offenders who do not follow the terms of their Sex Offender Registration Requirements. Any Citizen who may become aware of or have information of a Sex Offender who is not living where they have reported as living or is violating any other terms of their Sex Offender Registration Requirements please contact the Borger Police Department at (806)-273-0930.

I just donated part of my monthly FTB pay to the link above, you're hereby invited to join in, add 0.01 to a whole dollar ammount if you want them to know it came through a blog. … So, after all the ugly lies about how some deadly event is somehow a God-ly harbinger of whatever conservative cause the right-wing nut job du jure happens to be spewing that day, finally, mere days before a momentous election, a freak hurricane-blizzard-storm strikes that peels back the facade built to disguise the dangers of anthropogenic climate change and the unusual cruelty of a government harnessed by the ultra rich solely for widening the luxurious gap they already enjoy from us riff-raff, all in one fail swoop. You can argue about whether or not a rape is a specific, planned divine event, but I'm pretty sure a hurricane would have to be, if the terms "Act" and "God" have any literal meaning.
Do you really want to know how Smarmy Team Romney reacted to this tragedy?
Buzzfeed— But even as Romney, clad in blue jeans and rolled-up sleeves, hustled around his area of the gym, shaking hands, thanking supporters, and stacking cases of bottled water on top of each other, signs of stagecraft remained.
As supporters lined up to greet the candidate, a young volunteer in a Romney/Ryan T-shirt stood near the tables, his hands cupped around his mouth, shouting, "You need a donation to get in line!" Empty-handed supporters pled for entrance, with one woman asking, "What if we dropped off our donations up front?"
The volunteer gestured toward a pile of groceries conveniently stacked near the candidate. "Just grab something," he said. Two teenage boys retrieved a jar of peanut butter each, and got in line. When it was their turn, they handed their "donations" to Romney. He took them, smiled, and offered an earnest "Thank you."
They put some canned goods they bought into the hands of attendees so the attendees could pretend they were inspired and giving them to Romney — the Red Cross website has stated for years they can't use items in kind like canned good. If you want to help, give money, or if you're broke donate blood — the Red Cross can handily turn blood donations into money too.
How is this election even close again?

Sadly, I feel an agreement with this qoute. There are now many groups where this has become a mantra. We might not ever see the war of 'all against all', but it might express itself in many ways, and multiple contexts.
While I am not a 'true believer' in the power of love, we might discover that it might be the only way to save ourselves from madness. As we pass through all our options for relating, will love remain an option to cool the passions, and to prevent that final moment of madness at the brink?
It's a good quote, almost as good as his other: "faith means not wanting to know what is true".
@James, I think the same but i have yet to find the book where it says it to know the context (I'm reading his books instead of google it). As far as i have read, this quote may be referring to two things, either the german politics in his time (mildly likely) or christianity (Much more likely).
I wonder how this could relate to 'what does not kill you makes you stronger'?
"Here's more middlebrow bullshit philosophy. "That which does not kill me makes me stronger." I've got something more realistic: "That which does not kill me may sever my spinal cord, crush my rib cage, cave in my skull and leave me helpless and paralyzed, soaking in a puddle of my own waste." Put that in your T-shirt, touchy feely New Age asshole!" -- George Carlin

"How we inspire people to buy well by uncovering crucial points in their journey"
Thought Leadership
By Jon Hamm, Global Chief Creative Officer
In any "journey" of the heart, mind or body we undertake, there is a moment – a moment in which how we feel, what we think and who we are changes.
This change can be caused by any number of factors, be they emotional or rational, big and monumental or small and undistinguished. Maybe the information we have on a particular subject becomes more complete, our need or requirement for something more or less critical, or our sense of wellbeing more secure.
What is consistent to all of these moments is that there is a "change"- a change that moves us from thinking about something to doing it. Our hearts tip from liking to loving. Our minds move from indecision to decision. Our bodies shift from contemplation to action. It is a change that is irrevocable. From which there is no going back because this change happens to us, we have a new perspective, a new conviction, a new state of being.
The moments where and when this change occurs are more than just important or influential; they are the PIVOTAL MOMENTS.
It is this irrevocable change that defines them as pivotal. Without change they would be merely important or influential moments, which whilst not inconsequential are not pivotal.
These Pivotal Moments are the ones we remember as the ones that changed our destiny when we look back on where we are even if at the time we were unaware of their significance.
Why is this relevant for us?
We inspire people to buy well by uncovering these pivotal moments along their journey and create ideas that can exist in them – ideas that become so intrinsic to that moment – so that the action they inspire naturally transforms a person's relationship with the brand. It's what allows us to create ideas that feel relevant, useful, fun, and respectful to the person who is experiencing it.
How do we identify these moments?
We establish a systematic map of the journey that people go on when making a purchase decision to establish the status of their relationship with the brand and their intentions towards the category.
These maps are more than a series of inputs or interactions along a person's journey. They reveal the human complexity behind it all, uncovering the emotional and mental states people experience along the way.
Getting this right helps us reveal the true opportunity for change this presents to brands. But getting this right is much more than just where and when the window of opportunity exists for us to create; we have to dig for that one human truth about it that can inspire powerful ideas.
We call these Pivotal Ideas and they are the focus of everything we do at Geometry.
Put simply, Pivotal Ideas are created with the single-minded intention of inspiring a change in the people that experience them.
To do this, we aim to change more than the way they think, but the way they behave.
Achieving this is hard.
These ideas must be created with the intention of changing a specific behaviour, they must have human truth at their core, exist at the Pivotal Moment and make an action irresistible to ignore.
But get Pivotal Ideas right and we create the most relevant ideas for the modern, connected world we live in.
Ideas that are so compelling they demand attention from an ever more filtered, inattentive audience.
Ideas that will find a receptive place in culture through their utility and relevance to people's needs.
Ideas that achieve scale beyond their boundaries, as their truth and simplicity make them exponentially shareable.
Most importantly they are ideas that drive transformative action for our clients' brands and the people that experience them.
Which is at the heart of why we are here.

All Belly, All the Damn Time
September 19, 2005
Oh Internet, I had such grand ideas for today's post -- we have artwork and a-fancy paintin' type things in the nursery now, and lo, it is gorgeous and very ready for the Prince of Everything's debut. My mother-in-law? Scary, scary talented. And patient. And not asking me to help at all, which is the best part.
I took pictures this morning but...well, I am an idiot who forgot to turn on the flash. So I have pictures of shadows and things which are not at all interesting.
Here's a preview, courtesy of the one photo that actually came out, kind of.
So instead of nursery photos and some hilarious commentary about me stenciling leaves (yes), repainting our bathroom (no), and pouring spoiled milk into everyone's morning coffee because I JUST DIDN'T NOTICE THE CURDLES (yes), I will post some belly pictures, because THOSE came out just fine.
Jason took these last night, when my belly looked especially pointy and lopsided.
There really isn't any way to describe the feeling of having a full-sized, actual infant inside you. Except impatience, because clearly, this kid is just freeloading at this point.
Then I took these this morning, just to give you the full, uncensored horror.
(Yes, there are stretch marks. Many, many stretch marks. But because I am a lousy photographer whose photos are never properly lit, you can't really see them here. But I won't deny their existence. Am so sexy I can hardly stand it.)
Completely unrelated addendum: Thursday's post turned out to be quite the barn-burner. Hundreds of emails. Hundreds! I tried to reply to everybody, but I failed miserably, as I think I burned out around email number...twelve, or something.
And the great thing? Out of those hundreds of emails? I got exactly two telling me where to stick my "ridiculously rude" or "completely unrealistic" opinions regarding reader advice. Oh, and one person who went back through my entries to find one with open comments just so she could slam me there, because she was determined like that. Heh.
So three people hate me now and will never read the site again. And hundreds (hundreds!) of you love me and all but ordered me to stop defending myself all the time.
(Which means I'm going to defend myself one last time.)
FRANTIC SELF-DEFENSE BACK-PEDALING #1: I got some emails from people apologizing for their comments when they did not need to apologize for their comments. And I felt mean and bad, because I didn't stress enough that there is a HUGE difference between saying "Hey, this was my experience" and saying "Hey, this was my experience and thus, the only way it should be done."
Sharing experiences is Good. We like sharing experiences. We are like Oprah, only with more cursing.
Not Good: judgement, scare tactics and a lack of respect for people who make different choices than you.
FRANTIC SELF-DEFENSE BACK-PEDALING #2: The worst offenders of my zero-assvice-tolerance policy did not leave comments. They emailed me directly. Emails that, when forwarded to other friends, ellicited the same toe-curling reaction of "who the fuck is this person and how can she possibly think this is helpful?" So while you may think that all of the comments left last Wednesday were fine and dandy, rest assured they were the tip of the "unless you do things this way, horrible, horrible things will happen" iceberg.
And while I can handle a few of those, once I start getting dozens and dozens of scary stories that make me feel completely trapped in at every angle and I don't even KNOW THESE PEOPLE and now my head is full of botched forceps deliveries and maternal hemorrhaging and GAH, anxiety attack, I simply have to draw the line and plead with the Internet to Make. It. Stop.
FRANTIC SELF-DEFENSE...wait, fuck that for this one. I am sick and tired of hearing the blah-blah-talkyspeak about how because I write things on the Internet and have a comments section, I should totally be okay with whatever people choose to say to me.
Maybe I should totally be okay with it. But guess what! I'm not. I'm sorry I'm not as big of a person as you think I should be, but maybe you'd rethink your position if you had to live a week with my email inbox and actually saw some of the stuff people say to me day after day.
Okay, I'm done now. I heart the Internet once again and will maybe think about not closing comments permanently after all.
Let's all talk about something else. Is anybody wearing any particularly cute shoes today?

Ford Tdci 1.8 Smoking & P0299 Turbo Underboost
duratok replied to Lawis's topic in Ford Focus ClubI had similar problem. The issue is related to a popped hose. Either from the intercooler exit to the intake manifold OR the turbo exit back to the intercooler. Check for oil leakage or spray of oil. I am pretty sure its a blown hose. Best you replace all your hoses to silicone type ie Samco etc. They last way longer. Note - my ford hoses appeared to be cracked when i took them out to inspect. My leakage was at the intercooler to intake manifold ( split at the intercooler side)
New Bodykit For Mk2.5 In Malaysia
duratok replied to kitman's topic in Ford Focus ClubHarlow Jason! fancy seeing you here :P So to the rest - this is how it actually looks like with proper pictures.
My Tdci - Anything To Make It Better?
duratok replied to duratok's topic in Ford Focus ClubThanks for the warm welcome. I had a shop reckon to get the existing turbo out and get the hybrid work done on it. Enlarged cores and a new set of uprated fins can be slapped on to it. However, i have approx 35000 KM left to go for the warranty to expire before actually touching it. That would probably the the approach i take. Just wondering if anyone has done a turbo upgrade on a focus tdci yet.
My Tdci - Anything To Make It Better?
duratok posted a topic in Ford Focus ClubHey guys, I'm from Malaysia and here's my TDCi Mk 2.5 with a 2.0 liter duratorq engine with a 6 speed powershift transmission here's what i've done with it - Fitted better stiffer adjustable shocks for the front and sport shocks for the rear - from a custom shock builder from malaysia called Titan - Fitted an Airtec ST intercooler - Fitted JBT uprated Rotors - 330 mm front and 320mm rear with EBC green stuff on the front and ford originals on the rear with a custom steel braided hose - 2.5 inch decatted exhaust system with a single 2.5 inch s-flow box at the back - Foamed the entire chasis - A,B,C pillar and the under carriage - had a custom map for the car installed - which brings the power from stock 139hp with the mods above to about 171hp and 393 nm of torque. - had some skirt and an RS spoiler fitted as well. - samco hose replacement for all the hoses from the intake manifold, intercooler and the turbo side Note - only Euro2m biodiesel is available in this country for fuel I am thinking about getting a hybrid turbo installed to gain a few more horses. Thoughts on that? Looking out at options to increase any available power

I'm sure there were great and interesting talks at the Fire and Knives Mixed Grill event on Saturday, it's just that I didn't get to see any. I did the catering. I made a four course set lunch for 70 people and ran the snack/wine/coffee bar. After only two hours sleep on the Friday night, I spent Saturday in a spaced out daze, trying to remain upright and vaguely polite. It would have been a shame to have undone all my hard work by snapping irritably at all the movers and shakers from the food scene that populated this event.
My Cotswold Food. This private chef is an expert at outside catering. He never sleeps. He's like some sort of catering shark, always on the move, only catching a bit of shut eye while stirring a pot. James had even less sleep than me on Friday night, and that was in my shed! He lives in his chef's whites.
Conway Hall, where the event was held, has only one tiny domestic oven and one small fridge. Clearly, as much food as possible had to be prepared beforehand.
This was the menu I settled upon:
James trained at Claridges and so knew how to do classic French hotel food which was exactly the vibe I wanted. I love old fashioned hotel dining rooms, with the clinking of fork against china, of glass against bottle, the murmured civilised conversations, the silverware, the formality, the white linen, the stiff backed waiters, the domed platters.
The skin came off easily.
At 3.30 am, with James' tutelage, I was still dressing the salmon; piping home made mayonnaise into the spine, layering fine slices of cucumber as scales, criss-crossing the sides with thin strips of dark cucumber peel, as if it were a pin cushioned upholstered chair, studding the triangles with circles of anchovy olive, garnishing the back with capers and proud tufts of flat leaf parsley.
I also learnt to worship the god Clingfilm. How to transport stacks of precious vintage plates and not break one? Clingfilm. Everything was wrapped tightly so nothing jiggled.
We partly loaded up the vans the night before, I was just about to carry out the glasses and James passed on another piece of wisdom: "Don't do that until the morning. The glasses will get condensation on them overnight and we will have to wash them again in the morning."
James is the master of the checklist: "Serving spoons...check; salad dressing...check; serving dishes...check; glitter...check; clingfilm...check (because we will need to wrap it all up again when we drive home)"
The blancmange took forever. I loved blancmange as a kid; my mother had a rabbit shaped metal mould but she made it from a packet with cornflour. Nobody eats blancmange, 'eat white', a sick bay dish of choice, anymore. I made it the authentic way, soaking ground almonds in hot milk for several hours. Some guests said it was their favourite dish, that they had never had proper home made blancmange before. If having a go at home, choose a recipe that add gelatin at the end, it's almost impossible to strain otherwise.
The tables looked fantastic, with blue and gold glasses, pretty tablemats, a facsimile of the cover of my book and a mix of my vintage dishes and those from Bristol Vintage, who kindly lent their plates, napkins and babycham glasses.
Here is James' blog post on the event; as a non-Londoner, he was horrified by the parking charges! And he got a ticket five minutes before free parking started.
Thanks also to Josh, Amy and Mike from Blanch and Shock; Reena Retuta, Helen Gibbons of Corney and Barrow, Yinka Opaneye, Sienna Rodgers; Maria Grist; Alissia Durbridge of Bibendum.

Read the full story at Sustainable Business Oregon.
A Portland State University study found that carbon taxes could reduce Oregon's "distortionary income taxes," an issue that has vexed lawmakers for years, as well as provide new revenue channels.
The study, from the school's Northwest Economic Research Center, maintains that "putting a price on carbon in Oregon can result in reductions in harmful emissions and have positive impacts on the economy."
Oregon's House and Senate are considering four carbon tax-related bills during the current session. Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber has also backed the notion.
Tom Potiowsky, the former Oregon state economist who leads the Research Center, said a $30 per ton carbon tax would raise $1.1 billion in 2015. If the tax graduates over the years to higher levels — that's how British Columbia approached the levy — the $60 per ton the state would charge in 2025 would bring some $2.1 billion to Oregon's coffers.The money could help steady Oregon's shaky revenue system. Because Oregon doesn't have a sales tax, state finances are frequently volatile because the government relies heavily on property values and income levels.
Potiowsky's team also determined that reinvesting 10 percent of any carbon tax revenue could generate nearly 2,800 jobs.
"The repatriation of taxes is an importance component of it," Potiowsky said. "You've got a method to reduce greenhouse gases, it's a cost that people know, so it's not like cap-and-trade ... If there's been talk about taxes being too high on households, here's a method to try to lower those without losing overall tax revenue to the state."
The study also noted that a tax could help cut carbon emissions from about 42 million tons in 2012 to 34 million tons over the next 20 years.
The state's goals call for Oregon manufacturers to emit only 28 million tons by 2020. To get there, the state would need to impose a dramatically higher carbon tax, of $100 per metric ton, than, say, British Columbia's $30 per metric ton.
"In British Columbia, there's no indication that their economy was harmed by having the tax," Potiowsky said. "And there's evidence that their carbon emissions did go down."


text: Thanks to a first grade teacher who had a boot camp approach to handwriting, my cursive remains elegant despite the fact that I haven't written as much as a letter in at least 5 years. However, it has come to my attention that in an age of email, text messages and electronic documents, handwriting skill can deteriorate when unused. So, the question is: has typing made your handwriting worse?

The Holiday Car Show is held at the John Force RaceStation store beside the JFR shop in Yorba Linda, Calif. This year's show will begin at 10 a.m. and wrap up at 4 p.m. To get in for free, bring a new $10 unwrapped toy. There will be tours of the race shop and museum all day. Fans will be able to see thousands of John Force's personal collectibles, trophies, and race cars.
Hundreds of street rods, muscle cars, antiques, classics, motorcycles, trucks, boats, and race cars will be on hand. Featured vehicles will include Ashley Force's pink Rookie of the Year Ford Mustang Funny Car, Jay Leno's Jet Cadillac, Chip Foose's HemisFear, the Crazy Junk '34 Dodge truck, Barbie's pink Hummer, convertibles, and antique fire trucks. There will be vendors onsite plus In-N-Out Burgers.
Enthusiasts can also participate. If you have a great-looking hot rod, register at the JFR Web site here.
All the JFR drivers will sign autographs on the celebrity stage, including John, Ashley, Brittany, and Courtney Force.

Pink was a prominent colour in the palettes of many top interior designers this season, but one shade stood out in particular: Dusty rose. You may recognise it as not dissimilar to rose quartz, which formed half of Pantone's blended 'Colour of the Year' for 2016 along with a pastel blue named serenity. Dusty rose is the key to the 'Past Modern' aesthetic, which is being touted as the go-to interior trend for Spring/Summer 2016.
Featuring colourscapes that are more closely associated with the '80s and '90s than the new millennium, they've been reinterpreted with modern flair to create a look that's fresh and contemporary. We've brought together some tips to assist you in incorporating it into your home.
Combine with last season's neutrals
Copper and marble were both big last year, so dedicated followers of interior design trends will be glad to hear that they're remaining in place for SS16. More good news: They look wonderful paired with dusty rose in a retro-inspired aesthetic. A pair of classical armchairs upholstered in dusty rose would be perfect accent pieces in a marble-floored room; add some artwork with simple copper frames to bring the look firmly back into the 21st century.
Team with pared-down wooden furniture
Washed linen bedsheets in dusty rose add a romantic and feminine touch to bedrooms furnished in dark, raw wood. Leave them as the only splash of colour in the room for a modern country look, adding a grey throw and pillows for a hint of contrast. Use contemporary copper accessories as focal points, placing ornate candlesticks, picture-frames, or a reading lamp on the rough-hewn bedside table and mantelpiece.
Add a pop of colour in the entryway
Enliven a minimalist hallway by painting the inside of the front door. A corridor with white floorboards, white walls and a dusty rose door at the end creates an enchanting picture and allows you to introduce the trend without renovating a whole room. Dark wood is a fantastic contrast to white wood and dusty rose, so consider adding some storage to the hall area too: for example, some big rattan boxes. These are a fine nod to dusty rose's country credentials, while also offering the perfect place to store shoes and other sundries.
Team with other pastels
Take inspiration from the other half of Pantone's Colour of the Year, a pastel blue shade. The company recommends pairing the two for a soothing effect, so where better to place them than the home office? Paint the walls rose and add a statement desk in pastel blue. Anchor them with dark wooden floors, introducing metallic accessories in copper or yellow gold to avoid an overly rustic impression. Complete the effect with minimalist desk-lamps and wire-frame chairs.
