The Mile High Transit Opportunity Collaborative: How A Group of Nonprofits and Philanthropic Foundations Are Working to Ensure Equitable TOD in the Denver Region
October 12, 2011
More News & Resources:
The Denver region is currently embarking on one of the most ambitious and extensive fixed-guideway transit expansions in the country. Other regions are watching closely to see how the network gets built out and if development patterns reorient themselves around new transit stations, hoping to emulate our success. The region's cities and counties have been busy preparing land use plans for new stations over the past few years, yet so far most remain long-term visions, lying in wait until stations open or developers line up to build. There are also concerns that transit-oriented development will not benefit the populations which need it most—low-income households and communities of color--which typically spend a greater percentage of income on housing and transportation.

Naropa University students will have a new community area and enclosed walkway between two campus buildings early next year.
The construction project at 2130 Arapahoe Ave., includes a 1,382-square-foot pedestrian passage between Sycamore Hall and Performing Arts Center on the Arapahoe campus.
Work began for the project on Sept. 11, the first day of heavy rains in Boulder County that led to massive flooding earlier this fall.
Though the rains and flooding slowed down construction efforts some, Naropa chief financial officer Todd Kilburn said the project should finish on time, with a projected finish date of Jan. 3.
The project also upgrades some campus infrastructure, such as the electrical and plumbing systems. According to documents filed with the city, the project is expected to cost $430,000.
The enclosed walkway will also create some "community space" for students on campus.
"The idea is to create an area in the middle to have some seating for students, a place where they can get some food and sit and chat and gather together before a performance," Kilburn said.
This summer, Naropa finished another construction project at its Paramita Campus at 3285 30th St., that added around 1,800-square-feet of office space for psychology graduate students.
"We're working to try to start looking at how we can upgrade all of our campuses, so this is a small thing at the table for what else we can do," Kilburn said. "That's why we're trying to upgrade some of the infrastructure. . .Doing this now gives us the ability" to do something else in the future.

It's so fun to watch him ride, because no matter what, he is always goofing off and having such a good time, all the while throwing down hammers (not real hammers). His style is effortless. I ride with him everyday and never get tired of watching him. Today I was filming him and he says, "let me get a few tricks," and he did exactly that. Every pass by the dock he would throw like 3 hammers back to back to back. We are like always helping each other out trying to get better and always having fun.

Cross-posted with my independent service, TradingWithCody.com, where I post all my trades in real-time.
Good morning and welcome back to the coliseum, where the gladiators battle the machine. The markets are down and down with some aggression this morning and that comes as no surprise to me, per my notes here yesterday. I've trimmed down already and am likely to even add to the shorts or sell some more on rallies.
As for Netflix NFLX, a trade is a trade is a trade and I'm taking the loss on the calls I bought last week for a trade. I had this email dialogue with a friend of mine, a guy who helped build up one of those Silicon Valley companies to the point that it became so powerful as to be investigated by anti-monopoly departments around the world. One of the smartest guys I know and one of the most tuned-in tech guys I know.
But nobody's right all the time.
Him: Freaking Netflix. Ouch. I got this one wrong wrong wrong. Hurts.Are you going to cut bait? Or hold onto them. It's down like 30%. damn.My gut tells me to not sell tomorrow. But I've gotten Netflix wrong wrong wrong the past three months. I could buy a nice car with the damage they've inflicted. Ouch! 😉
Him: i hear you. i hear you. tough one though. man.so you are just cutting bait on nflx? selling it all tomorrow? i may do the same. we'll see how far it falls. question for you…why not wait it out? i do think down 30% is too much based on the quarter and guidance.holy cow. these guys have destroyed this business. i still love the service though.
Him: i'll probably hold on. may as well ride it out. lost so much already, may as well see what happens. ugh.thanks for the support. i hear you. portfolio approach. unfortunately i chose the wrong name to get heavy in. without it, i'd be way up for the year. with it (i.e. reality!) i'm still down a little. oh well…don't play with what you can't lose. lesson learned here though…i never thought this would happen. I should have known that because i thought today/last three months could not happen, that it most definitely WOULD happen. 🙂 lol.thank you brother…hope all is well.
Her: Don't apologize. I sold late this afternoon before the close for a 63% gain. Good tip.

*Compared to previous Advance formula
"Safer Choice" is a program by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) that provides a label for safer chemical-based products. The "Safer Choice" label helps customers identify products with safer chemical ingredients without sacrificing quality or performance. Products have to pass the EPA's stringent criteria in order to earn the "Safer Choice" label. The program reviews more than just product ingredients; it also looks at product performance, pH, packaging and more to ensure that products with the label are safer for you, your family and pets, and the environment. Once a product meets the "Safer Choice" standard, the EPA conducts annual audits to ensure the standards continue to be met. For more information, visit www.epa.gov/saferchoice
EPA/Safer Choice recognition does not constitute endorsement of this product. The Safer Choice label signifies that the formula for this product, as Wegmans has represented it to the EPA, contains ingredients with more positive health and environmental characteristics than conventional products of the same type. EPA/Safer Choice relies solely on Wegmans, its integrity and good faith, for information on the composition, ingredients, and attributes of this product. EPA/Safer Choice has not independently identified, that is, via chemical analysis, the ingredients in the product formula, nor evaluated any of Wegmans's non-ingredient claims. EPA/Safer Choice provides its evaluation only as to the product's human health and environmental characteristics, as specified in the Safer Choice Standard and based on currently available information and scientific understanding.

It's a lot more fun — or maybe just funny — than it sounds. Rooster Teeth's "Achievement Hunter" duo set out to find yet another random and quirky pastime in Skyrim.
Because you have probably exhausted all quests, side quests, and hoarding possibilities in the latest Elder Scrolls title from publisher Bethesda, now is the perfect time to trick shot some cabbages into buckets. What else were you going to do with that Alteration spell, anyway?
Geoff and Gav get creative with their newfound activity, bouncing cabbages off of guards and having them roll off the roofs of houses before successfully plopping into the small target of a bucket. Wait until the end for a momentous celebration. The laughs are worth the wait.

We've heard just about every creative phrase you could possibly apply to a Corvette, but when Ford Heacock, the owner of Heacock Classic Insurance, described his Marina Blue '67 Sting Ray as "pig iron under water," our curiosity was piqued. What in the world did he mean? "'Pig iron under water' is a light-hearted phrase frequently used in the insurance business when referring to ultra-low risk," Heacock explains. "The reference is that pig iron under water is not likely to burn. You could refer to a '67 Corvette--or most any midyear Sting Ray for that matter--as being an ultra-low risk from the collector's viewpoint. You're not likely to get burned, especially if the car has Bloomington and NCRS credentials."
In addition to being one of the country's leading classic-car insurers, Heacock is an avid Corvette fan. He was raised in Sebring, Florida, home to the 12 Hours of Sebring, and where factory-modified Corvettes began proving their cred on the 5.38-mile course in the mid-'50s.
"I was a pit rat when I was a kid," Heacock recalls. "I was 13 years old when the '63 Corvette Grand Sports started racing. Throughout my teenage years, I hung out in the Sebring garages and watched the race cars being worked on. That's when the Corvette Sting Rays really had an effect of me."
Four decades later, Heacock had his mind set on acquiring a Corvette that reminded him of his days learning about race cars at Florida's famous road circuit. "One of the things I learned in the insurance business is that the people who grew up with Sting Rays come back to them when they are older," he says. "I laughed when I realized my observation was also about me."
In January 2004, Heacock attended Mecum's Kissimmee auction and spotted a Marina Blue '67 Sting Ray with a factory-issued L79 327/350 engine, a four-speed gearbox, and mostly original parts. His research showed it was 1 of 22,940 Corvettes that rolled off the St. Louis assembly line in 1967; 1 of 6,375 that were powered by the 327/350 that year; and that its exterior color was the second most popular one of the model year. The midyear also had a handful of factory convenience options: air conditioning, power steering and brakes, and an AM/FM radio, among others.
That wasn't all that made this particular Corvette special to him. "It won Bloomington Gold certification in 1989 and NCRS Top Flight in 1991. I felt confident it was the pig iron under water I was looking for," he says.
Admittedly, all that was left for him to do before he committed to bidding on the milestone midyear was to get a second opinion. "The auction was on the same property as the NCRS Winter Regional, so I struck up a conversation with some judges and asked them to look the Corvette over for me. They gave it the thumbs up, so I was ready to bid," he says.
"I'm pretty savvy at pinpointing the value of Corvettes and setting my bidding limit," Heacock continues. "I was confident my high bid was right on the money.
"The morning of the auction, however, my wife had plans, and I couldn't remain onsite. I asked my underwriter/appraiser, Gary Gandy, to remain at the auction with my bidder number and my high bid, and to place my bids for me," he says.
Heacock headed back to his home in Lakeland, Florida. Still, the farther away from the auction site he drove, the more he fought a frustrating feeling he wasn't going to win the Corvette. "It was nagging me inside," he says. "I called my underwriter on the phone and told him, 'Win or lose, you have $500 more to bid on the Sting Ray.'"
What happened next was fate. The bidding on the Corvette quickly escalated to within arm's reach of the estimated value Heacock had placed upon it, then landed exactly on his high bid--and stalled. There was only one problem: He wasn't the high bidder. Before the auctioneer could bring down the hammer and conclude the sale, Heacock's backup $500 increase took the high-bidder position and stood uncontested. Going, going, gone! He won the Corvette.
"In the '60s, I fell in love with Corvettes," Heacock concludes. "Fast-forward 40 years, [and] ironically I insure the Corvettes I wanted to own when I was a teenager. Thanks to a lucky moment, I drive the one I wanted, too.
"I've owned my Sting Ray over seven years now and show it at Heacock Insurance's Lake Mirror Auto Festival Classic [held each October, in Lakeland], and at other concours events in my home state. When people see my Corvette at our display booth, it reinforces the fact that I'm a Corvette collector, too. I'm as passionate about this stuff as you are."
Tips for Insuring Your CorvetteAs an exclusive service for VETTE readers, Heacock offered six important tips to consider before insuring a Corvette, whether it's a classic Sting Ray like his, or a typical late-model driver.
1. Don't over- or underinsure the car. Try to be within 20 percent of the correct market value. If you bought recently, the purchase price may serve as that value; otherwise, invest in a professional appraisal.
2. Every two or three years, revisit your Corvette's market value and adjust your policy's agreed value accordingly. This is important in times of value escalation, such as 2000-2005, and in times of devaluation, like 2006-2007.
3. Make sure your insurance company allows you to buy your salvage vehicle back if a total loss occurs.
4. Install Lojack for Classics or other anti-theft tracking-and-locating device. Lojack for Classics now sells for less than $300 installed.
5. Major classic-car insurers have competitive rates--usually within 10 percent of each other--so choose the company that provides you with your desired level of personal service.
6. If you insure your Corvette through your family auto-insurance policy, make sure you understand the difference between the terms actual cash value, stated value, and agreed value. The method of settlement on a claim can be much different, depending on which type you select.

NEW ORLEANS (Reuters) - Baltimore Ravens defensive coordinator Dean Pees gets a kick out of watching Colin Kaepernick play, but would most enjoy keeping the San Francisco quarterback in check in Sunday's Super Bowl.
The multi-threat Kaepernick, who gained a record 181 yards rushing in his first NFL playoff game this postseason against Green Bay, runs a read-option package that has kept defenses guessing on whether a run or a pass is coming.
"Any time you play option football, somebody has to have the dive, somebody has to have the quarterback, somebody has to have the pitch," Pees said on Thursday.
Pees said communication between the defenders and the understanding of their assignments before the snap was critical given the success the strong-armed Kaepernick has had.
Veteran Ravens safety Ed Reed said the various options could lead to confusion.
"You have so much that can come off it," said Reed. "You got the pass off it, you got the option off it, you got the dive off it, you got the quarterback off it. They might deliver a pizza or two off it, you just don't know what they gonna come with."
Pees said he had faith in the Ravens' plans to contain the 25-year-old Kaepernick, but admired the skill and enthusiasm of the big, fast San Francisco signal caller, who will be making just the 10th start of his NFL career.
"I hate to say this, since I'm defending him, but he's actually fun to watch," the Ravens coach said. "He looks like a kid that just wants to pick up a ball and go out and play in the backyard in a pick-up game. He's done a great, great job and he looks like he's having fun doing what he's doing."
Linebacker Ray Lewis, a 13-time Pro Bowler, said in their film study the Ravens found flaws in how other teams attacked the option plays.
"A lot of people who played against them just never communicated at all," said Lewis. "I believe that's one of the advantages of what we have as a defense.
"A lot of people against the read-option just played as individuals. It's really hard to play that type of package as individuals. You have to play it as a group."
Pees said the Ravens would vary their assignments to disguise how they were defending those plays.
"It could be a defensive lineman, could be a linebacker, could be a secondary guy," he said, again stressing communication and execution. "Everybody needs to know what they've got before the ball is even snapped."
"You never play anything the same way. You always have to have change-ups all the time."
Anticipating the strategic chess match ahead of the game is one thing, and adjusting during the game is another.
"I'm sure they're going to come up with something new over the two weeks," Pees said, noting the extra week off since the conference championships. "Just like we probably will."

Digimon Adventures Tri – news and trailer revealed
New Digimon Adventure tri series images and news roundup
It's hard to believe that it has been 15 years since they first Digi-volved and earned a place in our hearts through one of the most loved children's television shows of its generation. But now, 15 years, six series and numerous movies, toys, video games later, Toei Animation has given us a first look at the newest incarnation of Digimon: Digimon Adventure tri. The orginal series first aired in the UK on the Fox Kids channel before...

Use the arrow keys or the WASD keys to move. Press any other key to jump.
The optimal pathway through the maze can be viewed here. Press 8 to enable a secret compass that will guide you through the optimal pathway.
You can safely stand on the right tip of crocodile heads even when their mouths are open.
The object of Pitfall 4K is to guide Harry through a maze of jungle scenes, jumping over or avoiding many deadly dangers, and helping Harry grab the most treasures in the shortest possible time. You start each adventure with 2000 points. Some misfortunes will cause a deduction of points. Should you fall down a hole by accident, you will lose 100 points. Rolling logs will also cause point loss depending on how long contact is made with them.
Each treasure you find will add points to your score. There are eight of each type of treasure in the entire game, 32 in all, for a total of 112,000 points. A perfect score is 114,000 points, reached by collecting all treasures without losing any points by falling down holes or tripping on logs.
You have 20 minutes to complete each adventure. Harry has 3 lives in each game.
There are 255 jungle scenes through which Harry can travel. Each scene covered underground is equivalent to three on the surface. Pitfall 4K is a circular maze, which means that, if Harry safely goes through all 255 different scenes, he will come back to the starting point. In the course of that journey, Harry will also encounter all 32 treasures.
Pitfall Harry's Jungle Adventure is fraught with danger. Some hazards will slow him down and rob you of points, while others will stop him cold in his tracks. The lesser hazards are the open holes in the ground and rolling logs. The catastrophic hazards are the scorpions, fires, cobra rattlers, crocodiles, swamps, quicksand and tar pits. These obstacles will not cost you points, but they will cost one of Harry's 3 lives.

When you want to get essentially the most from Runescape, you must 1st keep a safe account all the way. You see quite a few players get their account banned when enjoying the game, and this can be almost certainly the most undesirable point you may count on due to the fact you may have a terrific deal of Runescape gold within your bank. And this tends to make it extremely necessary to ensure that you can retain your account protected and continue to earn Runescape gold. I ripped this from yet another web page. It's funny how Runescape gold might be found all over the spot.
In the event you do not have enough Runescape gold, a great way you can possibly go for is to buy Runescape gold from a variety of 3rd party internet websites. But in case you will ever attempt to do so, it may possibly be in your finest interest to locate trusted sellers in lieu of just selecting a site at random. A good deal of sites are untrustworthy and they're all capable enough to steal your account in case you are not also cautious. Still it's far better to purchase runescape gold as opposed to farming all the way and risking the legitimacy of one's account by botting or other activities that may be quickly traced. Heck, acquiring Runescape gold is barely traceable and absolutely won't get you in problems. Just say, "hey, it is my buddy!" and it'll all be fine.
It is a hard position to become within a 15 year old game with absolutely nothing to show for. Everybody already knows how things perform and for those of you simply receiving in to the game, it'll be particularly complicated. Not merely will you need to get to understand the typical farming spots, procedures, substantial items, as well as other such nonsense, it's important to compete with these really do botting. It's an unfair benefit and also you definitely do not want the discomfort of farming all that Runescape gold by your lonesome.
This really is absolutely a nonsensical post and I do not really know what I'm saying. Likely since I located that obtaining no real expertise in playing Runescape, there lies the difficulty in producing actual information for Runescape gold. What ever the case may possibly be, you must realize that it'll be completely simpler and safer should you merely opt to purchase Runescape gold in lieu of farming it. With out that sort of understanding, you could finish up a bitter and old gamer that knows nothing else but to suck at goldofu. That's the funny component about it. https://www.goldofu.com

Rip was Ripped – Classic Mugshot Revisited!
"If you want to have a dodge ball victory, you've got to grab it by it's haunches and hump it into submission".
"If you can dodge a wrench, you can dodge a ball".
Great quotes from one of my favorite actors...Rip Torn. One of the greatest names in Hollywood too! He's turning 81 today! So in honor of his b-day, I thought I would share his mugshot from a few years ago, taken after he got drunk and attempted to "withdraw" money from a bank, brandishing a handgun.
Ain't it a thing of beauty?

After-tax corporate profits sank 13.7% in the first quarter to mark the second biggest decline in the past 50 years, using a number that adjusts for depreciation and the changing value of inventories. Reason to worry companies will slash hiring and investing? Probably not. Read: U.S. economy contracted 1% in the first quarter
For one thing, corporate profits remain close to an all-time high. The decline in earnings in the first quarter follows record levels in the third and fourth quarters of 2013.
The drop in earnings, what's more, was probably exaggerated by the end of a special tax break that allowed companies to write off the value of investments at a quicker pace. So companies were unable to use as many deductions and paid higher taxes in the first quarter.
Looked at another way, corporate profits in the first quarter after companies paid taxes only fell by a small amount. This unadjusted number – what companies show publicly in their profits reports– slipped to an annual rate of $1.88 trillion from a record $1.90 trillion in the 2013 fourth quarter. That's just a 1.3% drop.
What's more worrying is the lackluster pace of business investment despite such high profits. Since the recovery began in mid-2009, investment on equipment such as computers or heavy machinery as a percentage of gross domestic product has averaged just 5.2%.
By contrast, annual spending in that category averaged 6% during the economic expansion from 2001 to 2007, and an even larger 6.8% during the long boom from 1991 to 2001. While the difference might seem small, that amounts to tens of billions of dollars of investment that can boost hiring and even lead to higher wages for American workers.
Hopes for faster growth in the second quarter and beyond rest on the idea that businesses will soon increase investment. And there's some evidence to suggest that might start to happen. Neil Dutta, head of economics at Macro Rennaissance Research, points out that spending on research and development has risen 5.7% over the past year. That's the fastest pace since the end of the Great Recession. R&D typically rises ahead of business investment in other areas.
On the other hand, companies have spent large sums over the past few years on stock buybacks and higher dividend payments, perhaps a sign they don't think they'll generate a sufficient return on increased investment.

Health Tips
From tips on how to lose weight effectively to ways to combat boredom eating, this collection of informative articles covers a wide range of health topics that matter to real people, like you.
In order to have better sleep, it's important to know that it takes more than skipping out on a few unhealthy meals here and there.
If you think that all you have to do is cut back on a few drinks, or pass on the French fries for the day, wake up and follow these essential guidelines on how to eat for better sleep.
If Your Meals Are Skimpy, Don't Expect to be Sleepy…
If you are on a diet, it's important that you don't skip meals in order to lose weight; it's unhealthy and it won't get you better sleep at night.
When you skip meals, you actually throw off your body's normal sleep pattern. Medical studies have been conducted on various religions that show this fact.
The subjects in this study came from religions that participated in fasting periods. It was concluded that most of these subjects actually lost an average of 40 minutes of quality sleep per night.
The likely cause? The changes in hormone levels due to fasting.
This is where "not" skipping out on meals becomes crucial.
If you have a late meal, don't expect to have better sleep. A big meal before bedtime will increase the blood flow level to your digestive tract, and will make your intestinal muscles and pancreas work overtime.
Just remember: Eat Often, and NOT Late at Night…
In order to eat for better sleep, it's important to start first thing in the morning.
"When you sleep, your body actually uses energy, and it needs to be restored," says Tessa Prior-Pullins, lead dietitian for BistroMD.
"This is why it is so essential to eat a healthy mix of protein and carbs for breakfast," says Tessa. "This nutrition, spread throughout the day, will help maintain the right balance of hormones and neurotransmitters, which is essential for getting better sleep."
Party Animals Need to Hibernate Too…
The next time you are at a party, just say no to the meat party trays, the massive cheese platters, and all high-fat finger foods. They won't help you get better sleep.
Most of these foods actually cause indigestion, which can keep you up long past your bedtime.
Carbs for Dinner Are Okay
Why are carbs such a good thing for dinner? Well, they can actually cause your body to promote better sleep.
Certain carbohydrates can increase your body's production of tryptophan, which is an amino acid that makes you sleepy. These carbs include certain varieties of rice and grains.
Don't Eat on the Extreme…
If you eat below 1,200 calories per day, you probably won't be getting the best sleep you can.
Extreme diets that promote less than 1,200 calories, usually deplete your body of essential nutrients, like iron.
Iron deficiency is one of the main causes of restless legs syndrome, which will keep you from getting better sleep. Extreme diets also limit the time your body needs at night for necessary muscle repair and rehabilitation.
Balance is Essential for Better Sleep
In order to have better sleep, it's important that you have a well-balanced diet that gives your body essential nutrients.
"Diets with meals that provide your body with vitamins and calcium will help you rest better," says Tessa. "These are natural relaxants for your body, and they will keep your body healthy."
By following these tips, you will be counting sheep before you know it.

Space is back in the news these days (albeit on page 35) as NASA's "Lunar Atmosphere and Dust Environment Explorer" (LADEE) mission wends its way to the moon for a scheduled rendezvous next week.
Launched from the parking lot of the Staples store in Chestnut Hill (where most of its components were made on a 3-D printer), the flight will take 30 days, as opposed to the three days it took for the old gas-guzzling Saturn rockets. The mission's goal is to drop a "Roomba®" robotic vacuum cleaner onto the moon's surface, where it will dust, squeegee and wax the entire lunar landscape in just under two years.
As the rocket took off in a modest puff of smoke on Sept. 10, launch controller Grover Nerdquist solemnly intoned, "Godspeed, Roomba," to which the plucky little vacuum cleaner (which responds to several verbal commands, including "turn left" and "our funding's been cut") replied, "Thank you."
According to Nerdquist, "We hope to demonstrate to the world that we are ready to clean up after all of the other spacegoing nations who will be traveling to the moon and beyond in the years ahead. There's no money to be made from space exploration, but we believe we can break even if we transition to a service-oriented enterprise. In addition to our housekeeping services, we plan to offer package deals for kids' birthday parties in space. Imagine the fun of doing the moon-bounce on the actual moon!"
Almost 100 nations now have space agencies. Some, Like Russia, China and the European Union nations, have manned space flight capabilities, and some have rockets and satellites but no astronauts. Bulgaria has an astronaut but no rocket. Turkmenistan has some office furniture and a sign for the door. Mongolia has a photo of an astronaut. The one thing they all have in common, though, is that they are on the way up, while America is on the way down.
Of particular interest to the U.S. might be the fact that Iran, which first put a satellite into orbit in 2009, has already sent a rat, turtles and worms into space. They also claim to have successfully launched a live monkey and brought it safely back to Earth. This claim was disputed, however, when at an official press conference, a different monkey appeared to have been presented to the media.
Top Iranian space official Mohammad Ebrahimiadinajad Mohammad just announced that a Persian cat is the next candidate for a ride into space. Mohammad said the Persian cat was the favored candidate for the mission after tests had been conducted on a number of animals.
His announcement drew an angry response from People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals. "Are they kidding? A cat? How could a cat be considered a good candidate? No cat has ever obeyed any human command," said PETA spokesperson Wolf Spritzer. "And Persian cats are the worst of all. They're so full of themselves, they don't even acknowledge the existence of human beings!"
PETA has subsequently entered into negotiations with the Iranians, who seem surprisingly willing of late to enter into talks with the West. At the first meeting, Iran offered to change the payload from a cat to a baby giraffe, but PETA said that if Iran does commit such an outrage, PETA will have no choice but to bomb Syria.
Subsequent offers to send a goat, a parrot and finally, a clam, were likewise rejected. After days of round-the-clock bargaining, it was agreed that Iran would send a potato on its next flight along with butter and sour cream, and that the potato would be subject to perusal by an international team of potato inspectors upon its return.
It was further agreed that in return, when Iran has established safe, reliable shuttle trips to its bases on the moon (by 2020), it will then be allowed to send cats and that NASA would take full responsibility for changing the kitty litter.

2011 chevrolet equinox Model Overview
More evidence that GM's product renaissance is well underway comes in the form of Chevy's hot Honda CR-V competitor, the Chevrolet Equinox. The first generation was simply nowheresville in terms of good design and engineering. The new crossover launched last year recalled the Chevrolets of yore, when you could expect way more car or truck for your "low-priced three" money. Buyers responded, and GM has increased the Chevy Equinox's production capacity.
Equinox comes available with two engines; an Ecotec 2.4-liter inline for with gas direct-injection and a 3.0-liter V-6, also with gas direct injection. While in the past Chevrolet would try to sell the V-6 against four-cylinder Japanese rivals, with the new Equinox it has been emphasizing the four-banger, especially with front-wheel-drive instead of the optional all-wheel drive, acknowledging that nobody buys these to go off-road.
With the Ecotec its feature engine, Chevy emphasizes its 32-mpg highway EPA number in advertisements — a best in class number. The Equinox is one of GM's best new products, and should become a sales leader in coming years.
Bodystyle: Crossover SUV
Engines: 2.4L I-4, 3.0L V-6
Transmission: 6-speed automatic
Models: LS, LT, LTZ
The Equinox's V-6 is flex fuel capable for '11. Heated cloth seats are standard on 2LT. Bluetooth for the phone, USB port and a leather-wrapped steering wheel with audio controls comes standard on 1LT. The LS gets a compass. Directions and Connections is free for the OnStar six-month trial. Twilight Blue is a new exterior color, and Summit White is "upgraded."
There are no styling changes for the model's second model year. The Equinox, with its "mutl-dimensional" hood (Chevy's words) and wraparound rear glass looks elegant beyond the brand's place in the automotive class hierarchy.
Four-cylinder Equinoxes come with Active Noise Cancellation, a premium touch typical of the design. Generally, the Equinox uses good quality leathers, vinyls and cloth inside, though some hard-plastic surfaces remain, notably top of the dash.
Equinox's base four-cylinder is unexpectedly impressive for a 182 horsepower engine. Avoid all-wheel drive and you can avoid springing an extra $1,500 for the 264-horsepower V-6 and its considerably lower fuel economy. The ride is smooth and nicely damped, with handling and predictable understeer well suited for a crossover SUV.
Equinox has six airbags, including head curtain side bags and pelvic/thorax seat-mounted bags. Brakes are four-wheel disc, and StabiliTrak electronic stability control and traction control comes standard. OnStar with Directions and Connections also is standard.
LS, LT, LTZ (2.4L) FWD: 22 mpg city/32 mpg highway
LS, LT, LTZ (2.4L) AWD: 20 mpg city/29 mpg highway
LS, LT, LTZ (3.0L) FWD: 17 mpg city/25 mpg highway
LS, LT, LTZ (3.0L) AWD: 17 mpg city/24 mpg highway

From its initial location the mouse moves one cell forward.
It turns right with its next move incrementing by 1.
This incremental process continues up to a certain constraint whereby the mouse resumes the process with a move of one space until that constraint is met again; continue this process until you either return to your starting position or you evidently will never return.
What generalisations can be made about how variations of the value of the constraint affect the path forced upon the mouse?

It seemed inevitable their paths would cross in a meaningful way.
After all Misty May-Treanor and April Ross went to the same high school, Newport Harbor, though they graduated at different times. They grew up in the same town, played at the same gyms and learned the sand game on the same beaches.
Of course they have a connection.
Five years ago, so the story goes, Ross was about to form a team with Jennifer Kessy. The new duo played in a secluded practice match against the best: Misty and her partner Kerri Walsh. It was a tryout of sorts to see if they could hang with the best.
"We did pretty well against Misty and Kerri so [Jennifer] agreed to play with me in our first tournament," Ross said. "We got to the finals of that tournament, which is crazy because I spent the whole year before that in the qualifier."
Ross and Kessy were supposed to go back to their usual respective partners after the runner-up finish, but they both sensed something special. So the USC alums stayed together.
Now, who knows? The paths of the famous Newport Harbor High stars could cross again in London.
May-Treanor is seeking her third straight gold medal and wants to close out her Olympic career in storybook fashion. Ross definitely wants a medal in her first Olympics. Ross and Kessy have been training to win the gold in a wide-open women's beach volleyball race.
May-Treanor and Ross are among a dozen Team USA athletes with ties to the Newport-Mesa area or UC Irvine, heading to the London Olympics, which begin Friday.
Ross has watched an impressive career unfold for May-Treanor, a legend in beach volleyball.
Ross said she is motivated by May-Treanor's success, but not so much because they attended the same school and played for the same coach, Dan Glenn.
"I just think Kerri and Misty's success over the years as a beach volleyball team has driven everyone else in the United States, in the world," Ross said. "They set the bar so high. You win a tournament that's really cool. But it's not good enough because Misty and Kerri won like 90 in a row. Misty is inspiring for that reason. You can't just be OK. If you want to be recognized in the United States you have to be excellent."
Ross is headed to London to be excellent. She isn't the only one from Newport Harbor at the Olympics.
The Sailors have three on Team USA, as Newport Harbor alum Esther Lofgren (rowing) is also going to the Games. She had missed the 2008 Olympics by one spot, but now she will be rowing for the women's eight seeking its second straight gold medal.
Newport-Mesa Unified School District has four high schools. Three of those schools will be represented by athletes on Team USA at the Olympics.
Sharon Day, considered the greatest athlete in Costa Mesa High history, is competing in the women's heptathlon. She has a great chance to come home with a medal. After these Olympics she could be building herself toward becoming the nextJackie Joyner-Kersee.
The U.S. men's water polo team, which won the silver medal at the 2008 Olympics, has former UC Irvine All-Americans Ryan Bailey, Jeff Powers and Tim Hutten, as well as former Corona del Mar High standout John Mann.
Tumua Anae, also a former CdM standout, is a back-up goalie on the U.S. women's water polo team that won the silver medal at the Beijing Games.
Sam Mikulak, yet another CdM alum, is competing on the ever-popular U.S. men's gymnastics team.
Former UCI standouts Brian Thornton and David Smith are on the U.S. men's volleyball team, which won the gold medal at the 2008 Olympics.
The London Olympics will also have coaches and announcers who have a connection to our area.
UCI women's volleyball head coach Paula Weishoff and UCI assistant coach Jamie Morrison are coaches under U.S. women's volleyball team head coach Hugh McCutcheon.
UCI women's water polo head coach Dan Klatt is an assistant on the U.S. women's water polo team.
Newport Harbor boys' water polo head coach Robert Lynn is an assistant on the U.S. men's water polo team.
Tony Ciarelli, the throws coach for track and field and defensive coordinator for football at Newport Harbor, is the coach for Seema Antil, a thrower competing for India.
Ciarelli's daughter, Maryn Ciarelli, is the strength coach for May-Treanor and will also be in London.
Also, Keith Yonkers, a Newport Beach resident, will be the announcer for men's water polo matches at the Games.

Full red wines, with plenty of spice and acidity
The trademark of wines from Tuscany, and especially those from the region of Chianti, was once the fiasco. This straw-colored flask may carry associations of lengthy rustic meals out on the portico of a villa in the Tuscan countryside, but this romantic reverie must be interrupted with a burst of reality-- the wine in these flasks, dominated by the Sangiovese grape, wasn't very good.
This declaration isn't an indictment of Sangiovese, however. The blame doesn't lie on the grape, but rather on indifferent winemaking. And luckily, since the 1980s, the wine business in Tuscany has transformed, allowing growers to invest in high quality, low production clones. Now producers work hard to limit the vigor of Sangiovese vines, which, if left alone, can produce high quantities of fruit in the hot, dry conditions of Tuscany. In this wine-growing region, wine growers must be willing to reduce yields, if they wish to improve their wines. And before the marketplace changed, few producers were willing to sacrifice yields to make higher-quality wines that wouldn't necessarily be purchased.
Now, however, the reputation of the Sangiovese grape has dramatically improved. One trend remains consistent: Sangiovese is rarely bottled alone. In the past, white grapes were added to Sangiovese in Chianti blends. Now, this process has largely been dropped as part of an effort to produce bigger, more age-worthy reds, but varying percentages of many other red varieties are generally mixed in. Cabernet Sauvignon is currently the most popular blending grape, helping to craft the wines currently known as "Super Tuscans."
As Sangiovese is a fairly delicate variety in terms of the fragrances and flavors it offers, what ends up being added makes a major difference in the final profile of the wine. Climate and altitude also influence the nature of Sangiovese-based wines; wines made in hotter, drier parts of Southern Tuscany are fleshier than wines made in Chianti and other cooler, higher areas. With lesser clones and viticulture, Sangiovese tends to produce tannic wines, without great color. The best examples are highly aromatic, fragrant wines with nicely integrated tannic structure.
If you are looking for wines that are 100% Sangiovese, your best bet are the wines from Montalcino, a pretty medieval hilltop town 25 miles south of Sienna. Here, wines are made from the Brunello grape, also known as Sangiovese Grosso, an especially high quality (and large) clone of the Sangiovese grape. These full-bodied and powerful wines, labeled Brunello di Montalcino, rank with Barolo among Italy's most-ageworthy wines. Rosso di Montalcino, also grown in the same town, is also 100% Brunello, but results in a softer, fruitier wine that requires much less aging. Reliable producers for both Brunello and Rosso di Montalcino include Altesino, Caparzo, and Val di Suga.
Sangiovese based wines, including Brunello di Montalcino, are natural partners to the classic cuisine of Tuscany: bistecca florentino, pizza margherita, and veal chops, for a few examples.

Ride at Disney centerpiece of New Fantasyland
LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fla. (AP) — The centerpiece of the New Fantasyland area inside the Magic Kingdom at Walt Disney World will open to the public on May 28.
On Friday, Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Chairman Tom Staggs announced the opening date of the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.
The ride is a roller coaster aimed at the whole family. It does have a height requirement of 38 inches (97 cm).
It takes guests throughout the forested world of the dwarfs, then plunges them into a mine with glowing gems. Scenes and songs from the movie "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" play during the ride, and animatronic dwarfs and animals also make an appearance.
There are some steep hills and quick plunges, and the coaster's cars pivot back and forth.
Sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article.

Interesting. I cook a fair amount of lentils and usually salt at the beginning. What exactly do you mean by 'better'? (I.E. what is the effect that you get) Am curious and may try this tonight as I had planned to cook lentils anyway.
http://www.thekitchn.com/how-to-cook-dried-lentils-116321 wrote:After trying many different cooking methods for lentils, we have found that the most reliable way to cook perfectly tender lentils is to bring them to a rapid simmer, and then reduce the heat to low for the rest of cooking. You want to see just a few bubbles in the water and some gentle movement in the lentils. They will plump up nicely without splitting their skins or becoming mushy.
The other trick is to wait to add the salt or any acidic ingredients until the lentils are done cooking. These ingredients can cause the lentils to stay crunchy even when fully cooked. If you stir in the salt while the lentils are still warm, they will absorb just enough to taste fully seasoned.
http://noshon.it/tips/how-to-cook-perfect-non-mushy-lentils/ wrote:How to Cook Perfect, Non-Mushy Lentils
Lentils are one of our favorite pantry staples because they're versatile, healthy, and add an earthiness to salads and soups. They come in a variety of colors like orange, red, and yellow (which are better for soups & stews), but green lentils are the best for salads because they hold their shape. Here's how to make perfectly cooked lentils:
1. Rinse the lentils under cold water and pick out any stones or discolored bits.
2. Add the lentils to a pot with a ratio of 2 parts cold water to 1 part lentils. Wait to add salt until the end.
3. Bring to a boil, turn the heat to low, and cook 20-30 minutes uncovered until the lentils are cooked through but not falling apart. You may need to add hot water to keep them slightly submerged.
4. Strain, return to the pot, then salt and season.
Salting the lentils while they cook may prevent the shells from softening so we like to season them while still hot right after you drain them. If you're using them in a salad recipe, add the dressing while the lentils are warm so they soak it up. Now, your perfectly cooked lentils are ready to use so let your creativity run wild.

Mattiazzi Branca Table
Sam Hecht / Industrial Facility, 2010
The beauty of the simple, but not plain, Branca table works well with the Branca chair—or any other chairs you pull up to it. Its light, clean, geometric look makes it a perfect dining companion.
The table comes in two sizes and measures 71 by 43 inches and 59 by 43 inches. The legs and frame are solid ash, and the legs are sculpted and "sliced," so that they look delicate but remain strong. The slick expanse of top is white lacquer.
