Chassis selections for the Subway Fresh Fit 500: see the list of many teams and what chassis were selected by the team to run at Phoenix International Raceway:
MISSING? why are some teams missing? like the #11, #24 or others? those teams do not report what chassis in the race previews or prs.
#1-Jamie McMurray: Crew Chief Kevin "Bono" Manion and the No.1 Bass Pro Shops/Tracker Boats team will be bringing a brand new chassis, Chassis #1206, to Phoenix International Raceway this weekend.
#2-Brad Keselowski: The No. 2 Miller Lite Dodge Charger team will race chassis PRS-810 during Sunday's Subway Fresh Fit 500 at Phoenix International Raceway (PIR). This is a new chassis to the No. 2 fleet.
#5-Kasey Kahne: For the March 4 race, Francis will unload Hendrick Motorsports Chassis No. 5-663, which was built in March 2011. The No. 5 team competed in the car four times in 2011, notably collecting a top-10 finish at Richmond (Va.) International Raceway in September.
#9-Marcos Ambrose: The No. 9 RPM team has prepared chassis No. 805 for this weekend's race at Phoenix International Raceway. This Stanley Ford is brand new and has never been run before.
#10-David Reutimann: will pilot the No. 297 chassis. TBR debuted chassis No. 297 with Blaney at Texas Motor Speedway in November 2011. Blaney also piloted the chassis at Homestead-Miami Speedway in the 2011 NSCS Season Finale where he finished 28th. TBR purchased the chassis from Richard Childress Racing during the 2011 season.
#14-Tony Stewart: Chassis No. 14-637: This car made its debut in April 2011 at Martinsville, where it experienced some teething problems, qualifying 28th and finishing 34th with a broken rear-end gear. Prior to Martinsville, Chassis No. 14-637 was tested March 14 at the half-mile Little Rock Speedway in Rockingham, N.C. The July race at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in Loudon marked the car's second career start, where it qualified second and led twice for 48 laps around the 1.058-mile oval before finishing .773 of a second behind its sister car, piloted by Ryan Newman. It saw track time again during a Goodyear Tire Test at Phoenix International Raceway Aug. 29-30 before returning to New Hampshire in September for its third career start and first of the Chase. The car carried Stewart to his second straight Chase win, leading only the final two laps after previous leader Clint Bowyer ran out of fuel just before taking the white flag in the 300-lap race. Chassis No. 14-637 returned to action and another flat, 1-mile oval for the 2011 season's penultimate race at Phoenix. It again performed well by leading five times for a race-high 160 laps to deliver its third straight topthree finish. The car returns to Phoenix with fresh sheet metal to make its first start of 2012 and its fifth overall with Sunday's Subway Fresh Fit 500k.
#15-Clint Bowyer: The No. 15 5-hour ENERGY team will race chassis No. 712 at Phoenix. The backup is No. 718 - both are new.
#16-Greg Biffle: Primary: RK-778 Last ran New Hampshire - finished third; Backup: RK-759 Last ran Phoenix as the No. 6 - finished 33rd
#17-Matt Kenseth: Primary: RK-790 (last run at Martinsville, Nov. 2011)
#18-Kyle Busch: Chassis No. 326: No. 326 will make its fourth-ever start in Sunday's Subway Fresh Fit 500k at Phoenix. This chassis made its debut in the first race of the Chase for the NASCAR Sprint Cup last September at Chicagoland. After qualifying a solid ninth and running within the top-10 all race long, Busch ran out of gas with just two laps remaining, forcing him to come to pit road for a splash of gas, which led to a disappointing 22nd-place finish. Up next, Busch qualified third and finished 11th in the Hollywood Casino 400 last October at Kansas Speedway. Most recently, the No. 18 team brought No. 326 to Phoenix last November. After qualifying 34th, Busch was forced to start at the rear of the field after the team changed an engine during the first practice session of the weekend. Despite the setback, Busch picked his way to the front and led 23 laps before more engine issues forced him to the sidelines after only completing 188 laps, relegating him to a disappointing 38th-place finish.
#20-Joey Logano: Chassis #336 will ride with Logano and the Home Depot team at Phoenix this weekend. The car was used at Phoenix last season. Chassis #339 will serve at the team's backup for Phoenix.
#22-A.J. Allmendinger: and his Todd Gordon-led Penske Racing No. 22 Team will be racing their "PRS-808" Shell-Pennzoil Dodge Charger in this weekend's Subway Fresh Fit 500 action at Phoenix. This is a brand new addition to the "Double Deuce" fleet. The "PRS-807" is the backup Dodge Charger. It is a new car, also.
#27-Paul Menard: will pilot Chassis No. 328 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable in the Fresh Fit 500. This Chevrolet Impala was utilized by the No. 27 team three times in 2011, most recently at Phoenix International Raceway in November 2011 where Menard started 11th and finished ninth. This chassis was also raced last season at Darlington Raceway in May, where the Eau Claire, Wis., native finished 22nd and Las Vegas Motor Speedway in March where he finished 12th.
#29-Kevin Harvick: will pilot Chassis No. 365 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable. This former No. 33 racer competed in three races in NASCAR's senior division last season, placing finishes of 17th at New Hampshire in July, 22nd at Richmond in September and 10th at Phoenix in November.
#31-Jeff Burton: will race chassis No. 382 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable this weekend. This is a brand new No. 31 Chevrolet Impala that will turn its first laps during opening practice on Friday.
#33-Brendan Gaughan: will pilot Chassis No. 351 from the Richard Childress Racing NASCAR Sprint Cup Series stable. This Chevrolet Impala is a proven contender in Sprint Cup Series competition, as Gaughan's RCR teammate Kevin Harvick made a trip to Victory Lane with it in May 2011 at Charlotte. Harvick also drove this former No. 29 racer to a seventh-place finish at Atlanta in September, a 10th-place finish at Dover in October and a 19th-place finish at Phoenix in November.
#36-Dave Blaney: will drive the No. 293, which he drove five times during the 2011 season. The Harford, Ohio native�"s best start with the No. 293 chassis was 22nd and best finish was 27th. TBR purchased the chassis from Richard Childress Racing, where Jeff Burton drove the chassis prior to its debut with TBR.
#39-Ryan Newman: Chassis No. 39-691: Two starts, two top-10 finishes. That was the story for Chassis No. 39-691 last season as it competed in the fall races at Richmond and Phoenix.This weekend at Phoenix will be Chassis No. 39-691's first appearance in 2012.
#42-Juan Pablo Montoya: Chris Heroy and the No. 42 Target team will be bringing a brand new chassis, Chassis #1203, to Phoenix International Raceway this weekend.
#43-Aric Almirola:: The No. 43 RPM team has prepared chassis No. 804 for this weekend's race at Phoenix International Raceway. This is a Ford Fusion brand new to the team.
#48-Jimmie Johnson:: Johnson will pilot chassis No. 689. Chassis No. 590 will serve as the backup.
#51-Kurt Busch: Chassis No. 662: This weekend's Subway Fresh Fit 500k will be the second Phoenix race for this chassis which was built in June 2011. Landon Cassill finished 29th at Phoenix in Chassis No. 662 last fall. The car was also used in events at New Hampshire Motor Speedway in July and September 2011, scoring 26th- and 30th-place finishes, respectively. Kurt Busch tested this chassis in January at Nashville Superspeedway during a two-day test session in preparation for the upcoming season.
#55-Mark Martin: Primary- 714; Backup- 715 - Both are new cars
#88-Dale Earnhardt, Jr.: This weekend, crew chief Steve Letarte and the No. 88 crew will unload Hendrick Motorsports Chassis No. 88-709. This is a brand new, untested chassis.
#99-Carl Edwards: RK-801 - New car

text: The Commonwealth Games Federation said Wednesday that British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher will be invited to attend the sports festival despite an African-led mass boycott against her refusal to impose sanctions against South Africa. With 30 of the 58 countries involved boycotting the games, which open today, the turmoil has involved even Queen Elizabeth II, who heads the Commonwealth. The Edinburgh (Scotland) socialist-controlled council had previously written to Thatcher saying she would not be welcome at the games. Meanwhile, officials were forced to scrap two boxing sessions at the games. Boxing cards on Sunday and Monday afternoon will not be staged. Sunday's session will be replaced by tournament play between England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

That Haneefah Wood is a comic force to reckon with was pretty clear from her hilariously over-the-top portrayal of Cassandra, the soothsaying housekeeper in Christopher Durang's "Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike,'' at the Huntington Theatre Company.
But in that 2015 production, Wood was part of an ensemble, her turns in the spotlight intermittent and fleeting. How would the actress fare when she was the only person onstage, faced with the task of singlehandedly enlisting and sustaining the audience's attention throughout Theresa Rebeck's "Bad Dates?''
Just fine, as it turns out. Quite a bit more than fine, actually. Wood delivers a performance in the Huntington's "Bad Dates'' of such confidence, energy, and inventiveness that it's almost as if she has been secretly hankering for a chance to answer that question — in boldfaced exclamation points.
This is one of those cases, not infrequent in theater, when a performance is better than the play. Wood's inexhaustible brio helps to drown out the sound of clanking plot machinery in "Bad Dates,'' which is directed by Jessica Stone, who was also at the helm for "Vanya.'' Wood plays Haley Walker, a restaurant manager and divorced mother of a 13-year-old, who is venturing back into the confusing waters of the dating world. Haley's search for Mr. Right, it will not shock you to learn, involves misadventures with one Mr. Wrong after another.
It's only been 14 years since Rebeck's solo comedy was produced at the Huntington after premiering earlier in New York, but social mores change so fast that "Bad Dates'' can't help seeming old-fashioned at times, despite the inclusion for this production of a few digital-age references to Netflix and Tinder. The premise of one sequence — when Haley's mother sets her up with a guy who turns out to be gay — seems to belong to the era of "Three's Company'' (elsewhere in the play there's a reference to none other than . . . Suzanne Somers). A tonal shift near the end of "Bad Dates'' is not persuasive.
But there are sound reasons that Rebeck ranks among the most widely produced playwrights around, and they include her gift for pungent dialogue (or, as in "Bad Dates,'' monologue) and her knack for creating characters who have a sharp grasp of the absurdity of their own situations.
The hyperverbal Haley charms us right out of the gate, words tumbling out of her in a fast-flowing torrent as she confides in the audience while trying on shoes and dresses in the bedroom of her New York apartment, preparing for what is apparently her first date in a long time. (The apartment is handsomely designed by Alexander Dodge, whose sets are invariably a feast for the eyes.)
Haley has personality to burn and a job in which she finds personal satisfaction and even meaning ("There is nothing better in life than being allowed to do a job that you're good at.''), although there is that small complicating fact that the restaurant she runs is a front for the Romanian mob, which is using it to launder money. The dating world also contains challenges aplenty; she puzzles over the mysteries of men ("Men will happily sleep with someone they don't like. Women won't.''), and gives nicknames to some of them ("Bug Guy,'' "Wretched Companion'').
Wood mines comic gold out even the smallest moments. In one scene, she wrings big laughs out of her enunciation of a single word ("What?'') while describing a date who babbled on about how relationships are like movies. In another, she subtly and deftly modulates her facial expression and tone of voice from tentative puzzlement to full-on indignation while on the phone with a guy who has stood her up. Later in the play, Wood, who is African-American, brings a knowing twist to a line about going to the police for help.
About those shoes: Even more than Carrie Bradshaw in "Sex and the City,'' Haley has a thing for designer shoes. An 8-foot-high rack in her bedroom is overflowing with footwear; more shoes are in her closet; and downstage right is a kind of shrine on which sits a pair of blue high-heels. If you're thinking that Haley's constant, restless search for the right pair of shoes is a metaphor for the uncertainties of the dating world, you're not wrong.
Play by Theresa Rebeck. Directed by Jessica Stone. Presented by Huntington Theatre Company at Huntington Avenue Theatre, Boston, through Feb. 25. Tickets: From $25, 617-266-0800, www.huntingtontheatre.orgDon Aucoin can be reached at email@example.com.

So, in seven days I will get on a plane and fly to New York City for the first time in my life. I am so freakin' excited I find myself giggling everytime I think about it! My husband just laughs at me, he thinks I am crazy! Anyways... My in-laws have sublet an apartment for the holidays and we are staying with them for five days.
Its a big deal to me because I have always felt I belong there. I know I don't belong here (West Texas). It seems like my whole life I have been trying to get to the city and now I am finally going. It's fabulous!
My favorite brother, Jake, sent this picture to me today and it made me all kinds of happy. First, because he wrote it in snow, which cross your fingers I will get to see while I am in NYC. And Second, that he was thinking of me. Love ya Jake!!

Oil Changes, Tire Rotations and More Are All in a Day's Work for the Rusty Wallace Ford Service Department
Proudly Serving Drivers from Dandridge TN, Knoxville TN, Sevierville, Morristown TN, Newport TN and Jefferson City TN
When you come home from work, the last thing you want to have to worry about is maintaining your car. That's why so many people trust mechanics to do the work under the hood for them. As for whom you should trust with such a lofty task? Finding a reputable mechanic can be hard. That is, of course, unless you simply turn to Rusty Wallace Ford, serving Dandridge TN, Knoxville TN, Sevierville, Morristown TN, Newport TN and Jefferson City TN.
We maintain a well-trained auto service and repair department that has only one goal in mind: making sure your Ford runs as efficiently as possible. Because we consider every Ford F-150, Escape, Explorer, F-250 Super Duty and Fusion on the road to be a reflection of our dealership, we want to help you get the most out of every mile.
Achieving that goal means taking the time to know every model in the Ford lineup, as well as only utilizing parts that are approved by the OEM -- the very same ones that were originally used to assemble your Ford F-150, Escape, Explorer, F-250 Super Duty or Fusion in the first place.
Ready to put us to work for you? Be sure to fill out our online appointment form today. Once we know what kind of car you have and what work needs to be done, we'll confirm the details of your appointment.

My name is Alea Tveit, and I am the newly assigned Public Policy Research Fellow working at UnifiEd. I came to work at UnifiEd through the Eichenthal Fellows program which was founded in 2013 by David Eichenthal. Each year the fellowship provides two college students with the opportunity to work with civically engaged and publicly interested nonprofits in either Chattanooga, TN or Brooklyn, NY. The Eichenthal Fellows program lasts 10 weeks throughout the summer and provides students with professional, project-focused experience in effective organizing to address a range of community issues. To learn more about the Eichenthal Fellows program clickhere.
I plan on dedicating my life to social justice, advocacy work, and combating inequality. My goal is to eventually work with environmental justice movements, empowering community voices, and fight against environmental racism and sexism. I believe that a city that is socially based on inequality and economically based on the unregulated destruction of ecosystems is not a city that can hope to have a peaceful, healthy, and long lasting future. I believe a city must have a foundation of respect and equality to survive. This all starts with cultivating a society of understanding and education, which is why I believe so strongly in the vision and mission of UnifiEd.
I am currently a junior at the University of Tennessee Chattanooga majoring in Environmental Science with a Sociology and Anthropology concentration and minoring in Women Studies.

The editors of the New York Times lust after bogus trend stories. My all time favorite was last year's For the A-Cup Crowd, Minimal Assets Are a Plus. (In case you were wondering, "the persistent strain of A-cup pride running through our culture is unmistakable.")
And now there's a new "unmistakable" trend sweeping the nation: idle sex drives.
Pepperidge Farm! Hulu! Curriculum Night! Art!
being touched by one's husband or partner
How did writer Meg Wolitzer stumble upon this noteworthy cultural phenomenon? It all started when a friend told her the story of a woman who announced at a party, "I would pay someone to have sex with my husband." Other people at the gathering laughed and snorted in agreement. One woman even clapped.
Sounds like a trend!
And like all New York Times articles on the New Big Thing, this one offers other clear evidence to back up what might otherwise be considered anecdotal. Because this one time, when the author was 14, she totally said "no" to her velour robe-wearing boyfriend when he wanted to go to third base. And this other time, a guy told her that a little porn and a date with Rosy Palm and her five sisters is sometimes preferable to actual sex.
See? The New York Times has not one, not two, but three whole stories to suggest that people are turning down sex with their partners in
record uncertain numbers.
Either the human race is doomed, or we have new, unwanted insight into Meg Wolitzer's sex life. Bowchickaewwww.

The set lunch menu here changes daily, so you can expect to see something different on the menu here everytime you come. Since we love the salads here, my mum and I ordered the Balsamic Glazed Squid with Mesclun Greens. Just look at the portion, really generous amounts of beautifully cooked squid. I was most surprised that Baby C loved it so much too. Our other guests are not accustomed to eating squid so they had the Brocolli Cream Soup, which they commented was really creamy, rich and delicious.
During our last trip, we weren't served any complimentary bread but this time, we were served some warm pita bread.
For our mains, we had the Braised Lamb Shank served with basmati rice and a side salad. I love lamb shank and man, the lamb shank here was really delicious! Tender meat and again, a very generous portion. Even the basmati rice was really good, as it has been cooked with some butter making it extra fragrant. If I ever see this on the menu again, I would order it in a heartbeat. One of our guests decided to have the penne pasta with chicken ham, which turned out to be nicely prepared too.
For desserts, my mum had the Chilled Cream Cheese Cake (RM7.90) which we were informed was complimentary when we were paying the bill. Thanks Babylon! Rich and decadent cheesecake served with strawberries and peaches, and strawberry ice-cream.
During this visit, we were offered an ice-cream menu - it is a confection called ice floss. I believe it is from Taiwan. The manager, Ed explained that it was similar to our local ais kacang, except that they use flavoured ice. It comes in several flavours such as milk, chocolate, lemon, strawberry, green tea and durian. Sounded really interesting, so we decided to give it a go. And boy, was I impressed!
I had the Lemon Flavoured Ice Floss (RM6) and the flavours were tangy and really appetizing! It was topped with orange segments and some little balls, which I was told was similar to nata de coco. It's really fun as it pops as you place it in your mouth. I would liken this to eating a sorbet. Baby C really enjoyed this very much, we ended up ordering an extra bowl which she shared with my mum. This would abslutely be perfect for a hot day, which we've been experiencing a lot lately!

Two Most Important Words in Sales
What are the two most important words in sales? You and Why.
In order to close deals, take orders and build your business you first have to believe that YOU are the most important person in the room.The success of everything you're selling is dependent on your ability to deliver. Customers buy you first and your product second.Without you there is no relationship, no one to drive, deliver and be accountable.
The next most important word is the word "why". Why leads to one of the most important elements of the sales process… Answers.When you ask "why" you'll be able to dig down and learn what really makes your prospect tick and find their true values.Mastering the art of asking why will make you the master of your sales.
Deliver values that having meaning to the customer
• Sharing industry best practices.
• Manufacturing components and offering plant safety tips.
• Medical devices to doctors and teaching bedside manner.
• Teaching clerks how to close sales when a customer comes in to buy using your coupon or voucher.
• Office supplies and teaching customer service to receptionists and accounting.
• Anything in favor of your customer that helps them increase productivity, communication, operations, morale, and especially profit.
TIP: If you really want to deliver value, ASK YOUR CUSTOMER what he or she considers valuable. Whatever they say, do that, offer that, share that, communicate that, teach that, print that, and say that. In a nutshell, that's value. Real value. Value perceived.

The 6'2" Lafayette Hill native decided last September that he would attend Colgate University, and he signed with the Raiders in November. O'Brien played soccer for Penn Charter up through his sophomore year and was projected as a high-level Division I recruit in that sport, but he chose to devote his attention to basketball, and he finished his career with the Quakers with 1116 points.
At Colgate, O'Brien will be under the tutelage of Head Coach Matt Langel, who played at Penn, graduated from the Wharton School of Business, and later served as an assistant coach under Fran Dunphy at Temple. Colgate assistant coach Mike McGarvey is a Penn Charter graduate who went on to play at Ursinus College, and O'Brien appreciated the fact that there is already a strong Philadelphia influence at the upstate New York school.

Teleportation device needed asap (pref. w/ radio).
Lately, since I've been leaving the house almost every single day - albeit mainly to buy shoes (Thank you Zeus for Stave Madden), but also to work on all sorts of exciting projects with just a pinch of introducing some honest American English to unsuspecting souls in a (Whoa!) classroom situation (it gets better...) with moi actually in charge (when you say it all together like that the result is quite scary and unpalatable, I know) - I've again been subjected to one of the things I don't particularly miss from my life in Mexico City (Yes I do! I miss it all!), but that very likely accounted for quite a few months out of the couple year span.
Yup. Traffic. Trafico.
I have such fond memories of inching down Reforma, one of the main arteries of Mexico City, for hours on end in my burgundy shoebox of a Chevy with zero air conditioning. Wearing exhaust fumes like a fine perfume. Buying all of my cleaning products at intersections. Chatting to beggars in broken español. Singing along to the songs on that weird Mariachi radio station without actually knowing the words (cept for Cielito Lindo. Everyone knows Cielito Lindo. Besides it's just a whole lot of ay ay ay ay and then some more ay ay ay). Watching my suction cup Jesus gently sway in the furiously circulating lukewarm air. And believe it or not, sometimes playing sudoku. Honest.
And here I am again, stuck in traffic.
Granted, regardless of still conforming to the universally accepted definition of traffic (as opposed to the Finnish definition which can be loosely understood as: "Shit. There's someone else on the road at the same time as me! Holy Cow! I must watch out now."), the traffic here in Jozi is nowhere near the kind of sea of ebbing and flowing waves of chaos associated with Mexico City. Still, it's something you sit in for longer than you had initially intended or hoped. Until you run out of boogers to fish out of your nose, and that weird, red something between your teeth that looks like tomato peel although you can't remember when you last had anything with tomato in it just does not enthrall you like it did a minute ago.
But traffic's different here. Simply not slow enough to play sudoku, put on makeup, tweeze my eyebrows (I don't really, just putting it out there as a potential), work out what the hell that black stuff underneath my nail is and why can't I wash it off, come up with seven different ways of wearing my faux-hawk with the help of multiple mirrors available in my car, or make up stories of people who have those stupid 'baby on board' suction-cup thingies on the rear window in which (the stories that is) they always have dark family secrets or possibly an extra toe/finger/other magnificent appendage (never claimed to have a normal imagination).
Too fast for anything but radio.
Thus, I'm actually finally coming to my point.
Yes, there fokken was one all along. There really was! (Well, okay. Maybe not a point, but more of a theme. A unifying factor. Yes.)
And my point is a series of questions to you people:
How loud is it acceptable to sing along to 50 Cent's Baby By Me? Does 'doing that weird vogue movement' with your head make any difference? Is Baby By Me the new Baby Got Back? How frikken awesome is P!nk? Why don't more people sing loudly in their cars? What is it called when you kind of dance along behind the steering wheel? What do you do to kill time in traffic?
I know. I do. I blame the mother-in-law. Maybe you should too.

Sing in your car as LOUD as you want. And dance...head shoulders hands~~anything you can move and still maintain occasional contact with the street. It scares away weirdos and t'ell with the rest of 'em.
- Vancouver's Enviro Girl said...
Hubby and I have car specific dances and we always sing loudly (and badly), sometimes to made up songs that Hubby produces on the fly. It amuses us AND everyone else in traffic, so it really is a win-win.

Not only do I sing loudly in the car, but my kids do, too. Nothing makes me more proud than to hear my baby boy singing along with TI and Rhianna or Justin Timberlake. I'm such a good mom. : ) Oh, and for the record, I do not have a "Baby on Board" sign. I do however have a sticker touting Wind Powered Energy and my belief that we need more of it. I'd love to be stuck in traffic with you, singing at the top of my lungs. But it will have to be there, because thankfully we don't have enough traffic here to get stuck in it.

I know a whole family who don't sing in the car. they don't even have music. They are WEIRD. Singing loudly is your car is awesome. We do out of tune singing too!
- CrazyCris said...
I actually learnt to drive in Mexico City! I remember that on the rare occasions I got to put the car in 3rd gear it was like "whoah! too fast!!!" :p
- Heather said...
Blame everything on the mother-in-law, makes life so much easier.
- Melanie said...
I am so extremly happy to realize that there are others out there who, like me, enjoy and practice singing loudly in the car. Well I sorta yell singing-ly in the car. Keep it up! Its good for the soul! and yes, it is your mother-in-laws fault. It always is
- Fidgeting Gidget said...
I love to sing in the car. My favorites include:
Rockstar by Nickelback
Can I Get A....by Jay-Z
Anything by Kid Rock
Brad Paisley tunes OF COURSE
and my new favorite, Ice Cream Paint Job by Dorrough. If you haven't heard it, listen. It's hysterical
- Boomka said...
I have been taking public transportation in NYC for over 4 years now, but I used to have a car in the burbs. And when I had internships in the summer I had to commute in traffic rush hour. I hated it. I would get sleepy and my eyes would start to close and then HONK. OH sorry, drive, and then kind of my mind would wander while I thought about HONK. Oh jesus sorry. Yea, I like the train cuz I can just fall asleep. And people never honk at me. Well, almost never.

Everyone has that dream beach destination. The warm, white sand beaches packed with people soaking up the sun in beach chairs just at the water's edge.The smell of suntan lotion mixed with the salty air. Kids playing beach games while running between people brushing the sand off of their towels. This is prime real estate for your brand to be seen and with so many branding opportunities, you can cover almost every aspect of someone's beach experience.
Working with your medium can provide some fairly unique opportunities for branding elements if done correctly. Using what you're given can make a more lasting impression than a billboard or sign and can sometimes be cheaper than you would expect.
Beach Towels
What's the one thing that people seem to buy every year before the big beach trip even though they probably already have ten shoved in the back of a closet? That's right, beach towels. It's such a simple purchase for people because everyone needs a towel at the beach. Beach towels make great gifts and allows your brand to hitch a ride to the shore - whether they're used for drying off or tossing an extra one in the bag because you know one of the kids will forget theirs like they always do. Like, seriously, you tell them fifteen times to grab a towel and they still forget it. What's the point? Plus, a beach towel has been time and time again named the least likely promotional product to be thrown away.
Sun Protection
One thing that mothers are always concerned with at the beach is the amount of sunscreen their kids have on. Sunburn is a serious threat for people of all ages. With branded bottles of sunscreen, you can remind customers of your company while they're applying enough liquid sweatshirt to their child to ensure that the sun doesn't stand a chance.
Another vital part of the well-oiled beach gear machine is a pair of sunglasses. Who doesn't love sunglasses? Well, besides people who wear regular glasses, there aren't many people. Several people don't want to take an expensive pair of sunglasses to the beach for fear of their ultimate demise, but you can offer an alternative to those designer shades without fear of sacrificing the better pair.
Beach Bags
There are those that are prepared for the beach and those who are not. Plain and simple. Those who are prepared have everything in a beach specific bag with more than enough supplies for a day at the shore. Those who are not prepared are the ones that bring everything down in twelve separate bags, some of which come from the local pharmacy, and still forget some of the most important things. A really sweet beach bag changes all that and allows the woefully unprepared to say good riddance to those grocery store plastic bags for good. The good thing about these bags is that almost everyone has one, and their promotional abilities are working too. Fifty percent of U.S. consumers say that they do own a promotional bag, and the best part is that these bags generate more impressions in the U.S. than any other promotional item out there. Like, upwards of 5,700 impressions per year.
Beach Games
You always see groups of kids playing games on the beach, whether they're just throwing a beach ball at the youngest child or something more sophisticated like bocce ball, there needs to be something to keep them occupied so the adults can relax. With something like a beach ball, use the medium as ad space and provide your customers with branded beach balls for some fun in the sun. Provide the children with the game and reach the parents with your brand on the game.
Vacationers spend excessive amounts of money on beach items every year, so providing them with shore ready products is something that they can not only use, but cherish. Making life easier for someone on vacation seems like something that isn't really possible, but providing them with products designed specifically for their beach vacation is something that they can greatly appreciate.

After a two week goodwill tour in China, intense months of training and choreography, and a day of solid rehearsals, the time came to crown the next Miss NY Chinese. I arrived at the Mohegan Sun with my photographer for the evening, Amit Chaffee, by car, but there is certainly a multitude of ways to get to the massive gaming complex. If you are just in the mood for a quick, last minute weekend getaway, the Mohegan Sun offers everything you need onsite and is just a short bus ride away from Flushing. Having never been to Mohegan Sun, I had no idea what to expect. I had read my colleagues article about her stay there and done research online, but none of my research really did the place justice.
On our journey to the ballroom, we passed store after store of designer labels, restaurants opened by famous chefs, and miles of gambling – a perfectly indulgent place for a luxurious event. As my photographer and I enter the ballroom, the seats are empty, and the stage is dim. We arrive an hour and a half early. The contestants were busy with last minute changes, hair, makeup, and a little practicing of the choreography backstage. Photographers and videographers were making final tests and adjustments at their posts. People were slowly trickling into the foyer in front of the ballroom entrance. Program booklets are piled high at the registration desk, and ticketholders are eagerly awaiting the doors to open.
Checking in with some of the friends I had made while on the China tour, I turn around for just a second. When I turn back around to see the house, the seats are filled. There is a huge turnout for the event! As far as the eye could see, the seats are filled with bright faces and well-dressed audience members. VIPs are seated in the front rows to the right and left of the catwalk with champagne flutes filled.
Arlene Liang and Wilbur Pan are our hosts for the evening… speaking Mandarin, Cantonese, and English. The opening number is a choreographed dance with all fourteen of the finalists. By the middle of the program, only five remain, and by the end, there are only three, with only one to be crowned 2011 Miss NY Chinese. The pageant followed the basic format of all pageants with choreographed dances, an evening gown competition, a question and answer session, an evening gown competition, a swimsuit competition, and of course, the talent portion of the event.
The five finalists compete in the talent portion. Yao Yi opens with belly dancing, a talent she picked up having lived in the Middle East for over a decade. Fanny Liu dazzles the audience with a bit of flamenco. Jasmine Hayter, having studied dance since the she was tiny, stirred the emotions of the crowd with her Latin-inspired interpretive dance dedicated to her father. In a Lady Gaga-inspired bright gold multi-length dress, Melody Wu expressed herself through her rendition of "Born This Way". Danni Wang closed out the talent competition by first misleading the audience in a pair of nerd-chic, black-rimmed glasses and a black trench coat, which eventually revealed a tight, red-fringed outfit for an alluring chair dance.
Several awards are presented by the prior year's winners. Jike "Keke" Sun is 2011's Miss Congeniality with an adorable smile and a caring, gracious attitude. Angela Gao wins 2011's Miss Photogenic title because she can certainly make any camera her friend. Best evening gown goes to Jasmine Hayter in a form-fitting, floor length, flared white gown with silver accents. 2011's fitness award goes to Melody Wu.
Congratulations to this year's winner of the Miss NY Chinese Beauty Pageant! Second runner up – Melody Wu First runner up – Danni Wang 2011 Miss NY Chinese – Jasmine Hayter!
The finalists, organizers, and stylists, all pile into the one restaurant that is still open. We order food and beverages and start unwinding from all of the excitement. Many of the contestants are exhausted and can barely hold their chopsticks while others are wired and can't even begin thinking about sleep. I get a few moments to chat with Jasmine and her mother who flew in from Atlanta to support her daughter. When I asked what it felt like to win, she noted that the reality of it all still hadn't sunk in yet. Details still need to be worked out for the Miss Chinese International pageant in Hong Kong, and all of the obligations and responsibilities of being Miss NY Chinese must be talked over, but for now, Jasmine is just enjoying her accomplishment and the fact that her mother was able to be there for her.
Keep an eye on Jasmine as she makes her way to the Miss Chinese International competition held in Hong Kong.

Former Man, Woman, Wild star Mykel Hawke has unleashed a series of tirades on his Facebook page against Dual Survival star Joe Teti. In the posts, Hawke scolds Teti as a fraud, a coward, and even shared posts from Teti's former co-workers who accuse Teti of criminal behavior-- wow!
One of the more interesting things to come out in these posts is that Hawke claims to have been Joe Teti's former commander at their California National Guard unit, and was also responsible for getting him his job on Dual Survival.
Teti responded to Hawke's accusations on his own Facebook page, calling Hawke a "fool" and stating that he would be filing a defamation of character lawsuit against him.

Cancer kills Abu Anas al-Libi days before US trial
NEW YORK - A Libyan accused over the 1998 Al-Qaeda bombings of US embassies in Africa died on Friday, days before he was to stand trial in New York, his lawyer and family said.
Abu Anas al-Libi, 50, was on the FBI's most-wanted list with a $5 million price on his head when he was captured by US troops in the Libyan capital Tripoli in October 2013.
He and Saudi businessman Khalid al-Fawwaz were due to stand trial on January 12 over the attacks on the US embassies in Kenya and Tanzania that killed 244 people and wounded more than 5,000.
Libi, a computer expert, died at a hospital in the New York area on Friday, his lawyer Bernard Kleinman told The Washington Post, saying the health of his client -- who had advanced liver cancer -- had deteriorated significantly in the last month.
Libi and Fawwaz both previously pleaded not guilty to conspiracy charges.
A third suspect, Egyptian Adel Abdel Bary, last year pleaded guilty to playing a role in the 1998 attacks.
Libi's son Abdel Mouin told CNN by telephone from Tripoli early Saturday that his father had been in a coma before his death and that the family holds the US government "fully responsible" for his demise.
Libi, who also suffered from hepatitis C, told a federal court in Manhattan in October that he had been on hunger strike when questioned by FBI agents -- during which he made an incriminating statement.
Looking pale and thin, and speaking very quietly through a translator, Libi told the court that he had told "anyone who asked" that he was on a hunger strike.
He was detained by US commandos on October 5, 2013, and interrogated on board a US warship before being handed over to FBI agents on October 12.
Kleinman says Libi was innocent and had cut his ties with Al-Qaeda before the 1998 attacks.

1) Completion of construction of House of Hope, Children's Village: $20,000 remaining. $40,000 has already come in!
2) Evangelism and Discipleship in South Sudan: We are launching another massive evangelistic outreach in South Sudan to bring over 500,000 souls into the Kingdom of God. Following the mission, the '2020 Vision' (once activated) will provide discipleship, pastoral training, and church planting throughout this new nation. We need $16,500 for the first 40 pastors to train, equip, and send them out to plant the first 40 churches. $3,500 has already come in.
Acts 12:24 – "But the word of God grew and multiplied…"
Thank you for being a part of this incredible multiplication this last year! We look forward to moving together with you into another awesome year of harvest.
In the Father's love,
Carole Ward

ITTC Project
Quantifying the Impact of Unlicensed Devices on Digital TV Receivers
Project Award Date: 09-01-2006
The Federal Communications Commission proposed in Docket 04-186 to allow sharing of underutilized TV broadcast spectrum by unlicensed devices that could determine that the spectrum in question was not used. Even sophisticated unlicensed devices may under certain circumstances have incidental emissions in TV bands. Although the primary emissions from these devices--those used for communicating--would not be in an active TV band, incidental out-of-band emissions (resulting from the limits of radio technology) might fall in an active TV channel. Limits on this need to be clearly established.
The fundamental cause of this problem is that TV receivers are designed to meet conflicting requirements: they must be very sensitive, must cover a large tuning range, and must be sold at moderate cost. Of necessity, design compromises must be made to meet these goals, and as a result such receivers generally have little resilience to undesired signals in the TV band. Unlicensed devices using the white spaces in the TV spectrum will need to be designed within limits appropriate to this environment.
Interference with a user's digital television viewing is likely only when there are a substantial number of unlicensed devices transmitting simultaneously in the vicinity. ITTC researchers will develop a proposed limit for unlicensed devices in TV spectrum. They will create a simple and reproducible testing method to verify that a proposed unlicensed device meets the limit.

Government-Free VJJ/
You know that female anatomy features prominently on this blog, so you won't be surprised when I tell you that I support the Government-Free VJJ Project:
Some awesome folks got sick of politicians trying to butt into their reproductive rights and so are knitting bits of the reproductive system to send to these men-in-power. You can find patterns here. I kind of enjoy the "Snatchel" by the Anti-Craft.

Etoiles nominated by Rudolf Nureyev
Manuel Legris nominated by Rudolf Nureyev on the stage of the Metropolitan Opera de New-York
Sylvie GUILLEM
December 24, 1984
After having been promoted to "première danseuse" on 29 December 1984 at the Ballet Competition, five days later, at the end of her first Swan Lake Nureyev's version), she was nominated "Etoile" on stage by Rudolf Nureyev. She was only nineteen years old at the time. She left the Opéra de Paris in 1988 to pursue an international career.
Isabelle GUERIN
November 2, 1985
She was nominated "Etoile" on stage by Rudolf Nureyev at the same time as Laurent Hilaire, at the end of a performance of Swan Lake (the Bourmeister version). She retired from the Opéra in May 2001. She was also responsible for rehearsals for the revival of La Bayadère (November-December 2001) at the Bastille, and she re-staged the Don Quixote of Nureyev at the Scala of Milan (November 2003).
Elisabeth MAURIN
December 23, 1988
Rudolf Nureyev nominated her "Etoile" on the set of The Nutcracker Suite, a film produced by Nureyev and Colin Nears for French Television, in the studios at Bry-sur-Marne.
Manuel LEGRIS
July 11, 1986 *
He was nominated "Etoile" by Rudolf Nureyev on stage at the Metropolitan Opera of New York, at the end of the performance of Raymonda, in which he danced the role of Jean de Brienne, during the official tour of the Opéra de Paris in the United States, which the Company had not visited since 1948.
Since September 1, 2010, he has directed the Vienna State Ballet.
Laurent HILAIRE
November 2, 1985 *
Nommé "Etoile" sur scène par Rudolf Noureev à l'issus de la représentation du Lac des cygnes (version Bourmeister) .
* These are unique occurrences in the history of the Opéra de Paris, since Laurent Hilaire and Manuel Legris were still only "soloists" when they were nominated "Etoiles". They had not yet graduated to the category of "premiers danseurs", which had no vacancies for three seasons (from 1983 to 1986).

[Tutorial] Gelish Removal
Gel Polish is the way to long lasting nails without getting colours chipped within a week or even 24 hours time frame for the nail polish to dry. However, the removal of it is a hassle when you do not have the spare to have lunch, let alone to get your relish polish removed at the nail salon. :( I know that feeling, been through the "Oh no, my nails are getting too long, I have to remove my gel nails"
After observing how my manicurist remove the gel polish, I've decided to do them at home. And it saves me the travel time and the spare time to other things ^_^
* Acetone (I'm still on my first bottle)
* Aluminium Foil for 10 nails
* Cotton Pads (a piece can be cut into 4 small pieces = you will need ably 2.5 cotton pads)
* Nail Butter
* Orange Stick
* Miracle Cure (optional) or Base/white coat
1. Buff the top to remove the top coat that protects the gel polish
2. Soak the cotton pads into acetone
3. Place each cotton pad on the gel polish and wrap with the aluminium foil. This is to secure the cotton pad and it heats up the process.
4. Wait between 10 to 20 minutes (rough gauge).
5. Remove the aluminium foil and the cotton pad.
6. Scrape the gel polish off with the orange stick.
7. Buffer the nails till smooth, but do not over buff as you may weaken your nails. Repeat step 6 if there are stubborn gel polish.
8. Apply either miracle cure (since acetone and buffing isn't healthy for your nails) or base coat. I would recommend a nail cure for this step.
Remember not to over buff your nails or even just buffing it to remove the gel polish. It will weaken your nails. I've seen how bad it was when a friend got hers buffed at a salon and she didn't believe in gelish for a while. :(
