What's the future of transpo financing? - Exclusive: AAA backs Boxer's rental car bill - Port frames race between two Dems - MTA tax ruled unconstitutional
Featuring Kathryn A. Wolfe and Jessica Meyers
THE FUTURE OF FINANCING: The transportation bill is now law, but the question of how to pay for the next one is already rearing its ugly head. And the answer may lie in whether Congress can cut a deal on a bigger fiscal package. As summer fades, much of the Beltway crowd's attention will turn to the conventions, but transportation wonks will still be fretting over whether there's any reason to hope for a lame duck deal that might include some reprieve for the ailing Highway Trust Fund. The basic problem: The fund takes in billions less each year than it sends out to states. It's already needed over $35 billion in bailouts over the past few years. The federal gas tax that supports the fund hasn't changed in nearly two decades. But while the tax has stayed flat, construction prices and overall inflation have risen and slashed its purchasing power. Kathryn has the in-depth look for Pros: http://politico.pro/Q2k9lS
Story Continued Below
'A day of reckoning': Rep. Earl Blumenauer said he's holding out hope for big action from Congress. "I just sense there's a day of reckoning that's building," he told MT before the recess. "Part of it is getting past the election, because this is too much the province of stupidland." Referring to widespread power outages following the derecho storm that recently hit the D.C. area, Blumenauer said Americans "are a couple of episodes away from galvanizing opinion." He continued: "We're seeing it with water, we're seeing it with transportation, we're seeing it with the grid. I think those elements, coupled with working with people in the field, will put us in the position where we may be able to punch something through in this next cycle."
Gas tax fun fact: Back in 1993, the gas tax stood at 18.4 cents per gallon — and it hasn't budged since then. But in that time, the price of a First Class stamp rose from 29 cents to 45 cents. If that same rate of inflation had applied to the gas tax, it would be at 28.5 cents per gallon today — a dime higher than it actually is.
MT EXCLUSIVE — Boxer touts AAA support of rental car bill: Sen. Barbara Boxer has a major name behind her bill (S. 3502; text: http://1.usa.gov/PdPDBh) to stop rental car companies from selling or renting cars under a safety recall: AAA. "I am very grateful that the AAA has endorsed my legislation to ensure that rental car companies never sell or lease an unsafe vehicle," Boxer says in a statement set to hit the wires later today. "AAA is a leading authority on car safety issues, so its support means a lot as we move towards consideration of this legislation." In a letter ( http://1.usa.gov/PdPqOI) sent earlier this week, AAA head Robert Darbelnet wrote that "as an advocate for the safety and security of all motorists, AAA views this legislation as a common-sense solution that would help keep unsafe vehicles off the road."
DEM INCUMBENT BATTLE ABOUT PORTS: The congressional pillory didn't help, but even before Rep. Laura Richardson was slapped with an official House scolding, the T&I Democrat had issues. She kept bleeding employees. A freshman trampled her in the primary. And to top it off, Rep. Janice Hahn has jumped on her transportation priorities. The November showdown between the two Democrats will be a battle over potential, pedigree and ports. And now the two women, who leapt into Congress through special elections, are trying to convince a largely Latino community that this new port-centric district is theirs. Jessica has the story for Pros: http://politico.pro/OSkt0Y
MTA PAYROLL TAX STRUCK DOWN: A New York state court has ruled a payroll tax that funds the MTA is unconstitutional, a verdict that could cost the transit agency $1.5 billion in revenue. MTA said it will appeal the rule and noted that the four earlier challenges to the tax were rejected. Reuters has more: http://reut.rs/PdRar2

"Bring a magazine to read around our broke down transportation …" http://youtu.be/N6DjyXQl7L8
NO DISTRACTING FROM THESE DOT GRANTS: A new grant program authorized in the transportation law will provide about $17.5 million to states that have laws banning distracted driving by 2013, DOT announced yesterday. Congress also authorized an additional $5 million for NHTSA to develop distracted driving commercials. But the final amount for both programs depends on FY 2013 appropriations from Congress, which is likely to be dealt with in a continuing resolution once lawmakers return in September. Once the notice appears in the Federal Register, which an NHTSA official said should happen by Friday, states will have 45 days to apply for the grants.
More details: GHSA brings us an in-depth breakdown of the funding: $5.6 million can go to the 35 states that have primary texting bans (meaning an officer can pull you over only for distracted driving). The remaining $11.9 million goes to "states that have much stricter laws including a provision for increased fines for subsequent offenses. At this point, only a few states are likely to qualify for this funding," GHSA said. The safety group also outlined how states can use that remaining money: "States may use 50 percent of the funding for any purpose eligible under the section 402 behavioral highway safety program. The remaining funds must be used: to educate the public about the dangers of texting and using a cell phone while driving; for the purchase of signage to notify the public about the state's distracted driving law; or for enforcement of the law." http://bit.ly/OS4dNr

CRASH UPDATES — CSX derailment: Investigators are still looking into the freight train derailment in Ellicott City, Md., that killed two young women. The train was running at the authorized speed of 25 mph, an NTSB official said. The official refused to speculate and said Wednesday's on-scene work was "purely fact-finding." The AP has more: http://cbsn.ws/Rfr6PT
FAA, NTSB employees: The Transportation Safety Board of Canada continues looking into a fatal May collision of two small planes (one registered to an FAA employee, the other to an NTSB worker). "One of the main areas we haven't answered yet is that, based on the angle of approach and the physical layout of each aircraft, would either pilot have been able to have seen each other," investigator Jon Lee told the AP. Lee added that workers are looking at if air traffic control procedures or software played a role in the crash and that a draft report should be out by late November or early December. AP: http://wapo.st/RfrGgH
LaHOOD IN WASHINGTON (THE WEST COAST ONE): Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood is in Seattle today for "an important freight announcement" with Sen. Maria Cantwell. DOT didn't offer a preview, but the secretary later heads to the U.S.-395 North Spokane Corridor, which snagged a $10 million TIGER grant in the last round. Pros, stay tuned today for an update later today.
THE DAY THE EARTH DIDN'T STAND STILL: Today is the first anniversary of the 5.8 magnitude earthquake that hit the D.C. region last summer, wreaking havoc on the region's transportation network. The shaking led Metro to slow trains to 15 mph, temporarily shuttered the MARC commuter rail and led to major road congestion, caused in part by some traffic light outages. For a look back at how things played out, hour by hour, see TBD's story from the day: http://tbd.ly/n7jV1a

MT POLL — How do you get around on vacay? It's that time of the year when the city slows down and everyone tries to satisfy their traveling jones. But we wonder: What do you do when you get there: Rent a car or use transit? MT is a cheap son of a gun, so both halves have ridden transit whenever possible. But some times and in some places, cars are way easier. What about you? Polls close Sunday. http://poll.fm/3updy
NOT TALKING: Negotiations have broken down between the International Longshoremen's Association and the U.S. Maritime Alliance over a contract affecting East and Gulf Coast ports. The contract, which could impact more than 14,500 jobs, is scheduled to expire at the end of September. The Journal of Commerce later reported that ILA President Harold Daggett said a strike is likely now that talks have ended: http://bit.ly/MN6zBI
THE COUNTDOWN: DOT funding runs out in 38 days, passenger rail policy in 404 days, surface transportation policy in 769 days and FAA policy in 1,134 days. There are 75 days before the general election and the 113th Congress convenes in 136 days.
MORE GRANTS: Also yesterday, after the distracted driving grant announcement, FAA said it is giving $6.8 million to fix the main runway at Boise Air Terminal/Gowen Field in Boise, Idaho. The rehab project will extend the runway's life, give more traction for planes taking off and landing, and improve water drainage. The funds come from the Airport Improvement Program, which is supported by Passenger Facility Charges that are capped at $4.50 per flight segment.

Now it's time for the UAE to play by the rules and bring an end to their subsidy-fueled expansion campaign.

Main :: Sonic Port / Mobile In
by markcsomers on 2011-11-15 08:42:33.0670
I am looking forward to getting my Mobile In device that I ordered yesterday.
Two questions:
1. Will I need a 30 pin extender/adapter in order to plug in the device if my iphone is in a case?
2. Will using an extender cause any problems (ie: latency) with using the program/device?
It looks from photos and videos that there is no space between the top of the Mobile In and the ipad/iphone when the device is plugged in. Therefore, one will need to either use a 30 pin extender/adapter OR remove the iphone from the case when wanting to use the Mobile In device.
Thanks for the help!
by Icewind on 2011-11-15 09:54:43.6210
I can't answer #2, but the answer to #1 is almost certainly yes. Any case that obstructs the bottom of your device will make it difficult--if not impossible--to seat the Mobile In.
by markcsomers on 2011-11-15 13:48:39.5520
Based on comments on this site and in the App Store, I decided to cancel my order for the Mobile In and order the Apogee Jam. I plan to use the Jam with Garage Band that recently became available as an app for iphones. That said . . . I am a huge fan of Line 6 products and currently use the Pod HD500.
by Line6Don on 2011-11-16 16:48:36.0530
Hey markcsomers,
1: It depends on the case, however most cases should accomodate the Mobile In just fine. The connection is the size of the standard 30 pin connection. Where you could encounter a problem is if your case is rather thick around the dock connection. The Mobile In adpator fits just about flush against the bottom portion of the iDevice.
2: We have not seen any reporting cases of a extender causing problems, although as I mentioned above most cases will accomdate the Mobile In just fine without the need for a 30-pin dock extension cable.
by squeegy on 2011-11-25 17:58:12.5050
I have the Apple bumper case and I do not need an extender. I do have one that I use for a Bose dock and I tried it on the Mobile In. The DockStubZ extender by CableJive worked fine if you did have a case with a thick bottom. absolutely no change in sound or latency with it on.
by JeffValenta on 2011-11-26 00:04:17.3370
that sounds like just what I need because the bottom of my case is too thick.
I notice that the DocStubZ extender has a mini-USB for charging while using the Mobile In.
I just want to know if charging it at the same time as using it with Mobile POD will damage the Mobile In?
by squeegy on 2011-11-26 08:19:04.5380
I haven't had a chance to try it, but from info on cable jives web site, it is meant for when the dock you are connecting to can't supply power like those old fire wire docks. my guess is that it woul d not hurt the mobile in hardware, but someone from line 6 might know more. one thing I found when connecting mobile to your iPhone disrupts the iPhone from finding any network 3G or wifi. it is best to go into airplane mode to save battery as it will continuely search for a network the whole time you are jamming.
by JeffValenta on 2011-12-05 08:20:18.4450
Mobile In does work great as a digital in for certain programs. BUT, it won't support using any sort of 30-pin pass through extender, powered or unpowered. I've already spent over $50 in different extenders because I don't like the precarious way the Mobile In hangs off of the iPad. I intend to use the Mobile In and iPad for live performance as well. When plugging in any extender, then the Mobile In to the extender I always get "USB device not supported" message. Line6 needs to fix that.
by rperretta on 2011-12-10 10:34:55.4940
Bad news - I just got my Mobile In, hooked it up to my iPad2 and the connectioin is so intermittent as to be unuasable. THe connector doesn't click in at all, even when the iPad2 is out of the case. If you hold it just right with both hands, click your heels an dsay there's no place like home.... Well you know the story. Looks like RMA time...
I RTFM'd just in case. No luck.
Anybody else have this problem? I'm a long time Project Manager in the electronics Industry and I can't imagine that the product would have made it out of development without adequate design review in mechanical engineering and component qualofication. Did I get the bad one? Would an extender fix it? - Less hassle than RMA. I just want to make music.
I'm thinking about Jeff's posting above as well. Even if it did work, it seems preacious. They should have used a cable. If it was my project, that design wouldn't have left the factory. I've been a LIne 6 customer since AX212 but I may have to look elswhere on this one. Even the best stumble. Say it ain't so Line 6!
by JeffValenta on 2011-12-12 13:53:31.0710
I'm pretty convinced Line6 knew ahead of time what would work and what wouldn't. If they had been upfront with that, it would have saved me over $50 and much frustration trying to improve the usefulness of the Mobile In.
IMHO I think they wanted to be first to market (or largest userbase to market) AND do it before the Holidays.
That being said, I did use my iPad and Mobile In/Mobile Pod for a gig over the weekend and people were blown away!
I bought a dremel tool and made the 30-pin opening bigger on my plastic x-clip on a mic stand. Worked great.
I love the technology, and I think with a bit more effort, Line6 could hit a homerun with this concept.
I'd have to believe that the processor in the iDevices is capable of handling the HD sounds/fx.
by RicW on 2011-12-21 06:47:28.2290
I bought this dock extender and it works fine for both ipad 2 and iphone 4s.
by JeffValenta on 2011-12-22 10:09:55.3600
cool, unfortunately I have an iPad1 and iPhone4 and no extenders are supported on either of these.
by RicW on 2011-12-27 06:36:20.9300
Tried it with my sons iPad 1 today and works fine.
The information above may not be current, and you should direct questions to the current forum or review the manual.

2001 - 2004
betaversion were a series of interactive image experiments with sound I conducted during 2001 -2004.
The experiments involved a data projector, computer, infrared mouse, stretched canvases with prepared reflective surfaces, triggered recorded sounds. The audience activated and triggered visual animations and recorded sounds via a mouse. The projected images bounced off the various reflective surfaces in different ways creating a kind of depth of field experience. The stretched canvases were arranged upright at various positions to create different "planes" for the projection to project on to.
The betaversion experiments were first inspired by experiments with real-time digital painting at Pinacotheca gallery, Melbourne in 2001 which used a digital projector, computer, infrared mouse, Photoshop and VR programs. Experiments at my flat also contributed at the time as it had lots of doors I could open or shut to different rooms and first demonstrated to me the idea of projecting on to physical surfaces and planes to create a visual space I was interested in.

Jimmy had previously been an artist attending Arts Project Australia studios for many years. He was the original person at Arts Project Australia who inspired me to come up with the Animation and media art program I initiated and developed in the studios as an artsworker in 1998 - 2001.

CHICAGO (AP) -- The Rev. Jesse Jackson says his congressman son will return to Minnesota's Mayo Clinic for a checkup.
The elder Jackson told The Associated Press on Sunday that doctors will determine whether the congressman needs to stay longer. The younger Jackson left the clinic in September after seeking treatment for bipolar disorder. He first took medical leave in June.
The younger Jackson has given no indication of when he'll return to work but released a robocall to voters asking for patience.
A Mayo spokeswoman says Jackson isn't a current patient and she couldn't confirm whether he plans to check into the clinic.
The congressman's spokesmen didn't immediately return messages.
The elder Jackson wouldn't say when the checkup was. He says his son wants to work, but it's up to his doctors.

Wildlife and the Outdoors
Stages of a Hunter
Daniel G. Toole, Wildlife Biologist
As people progress through life, they usually learn from their experiences and change their ways to better themselves and those around them. These developmental periods or "stages" also hold true for most hunters. As experience is gained, a personal ethic evolves. Eventually, most hunters develop a love and respect for hunting and for our natural world.
Most hunters are introduced to hunting at an early age. Children tend to have short attention spans, very little patience, and demand physically active pastimes. When youngsters participate in hunting, they usually just want to shoot. Getting a shot off is more important than waiting for a trophy animal. Hunters at this stage in their hunting life are often referred to as being in the "shooting stage." This is why dove and other types of small game hunting are perfectly suited for introducing young or new hunters to hunting. These types of hunts allow the adult, whether a parent or just a friend, to spend time with the child teaching him/her to become a responsible hunter. The combination of active shooting, in the field and at a range, along with mentoring from an experienced adult, helps most hunters move quickly through this stage.
As hunters become better marksmen they are able to harvest more game. Many become more concerned with the number of animals they harvest rather than simply having an opportunity to shoot. Hunters at this stage are usually referred to as being in the "limiting out stage." Some hunters never progress beyond this stage, and believe they must harvest the most game in order to be happy with their day in the field. Hunters in this stage expend effort and energy to fill their bag limit. Hunters that carry this stage to an extreme can portray a negative image of hunters and hunting to the public.
Fortunately, most hunters progress beyond the stages of shooting or limiting out. They become more selective as to what they harvest. These hunters are usually referred to being in the "trophy stage." They tend to be more willing to pass up shots on young immature animals in order to have the opportunity to harvest mature animals. Hunters in this stage are continually learning new hunting techniques and improving their marksmanship and other skills that allow them to become better hunters. They tend to be more focused on harvesting their targeted species and spend countless hours in the field to accomplish their goals. They are usually more interested in applying management and/or harvest techniques, such as intensive fertilization to improve forage quality or limit the buck harvest in a deer herd in order to improve age structure and antler production.
Some hunters become more interested in how they harvest an animal rather than how many animals they harvest or their size or quality. This stage of hunting is often referred to as the "method stage." Whether it is harvesting a deer with a long bow, or a turkey with a black powder shotgun, it is the satisfaction of how they harvest the game that really matters.
Fortunately, there are hunters who progress to a step in their hunting career called the "sportsman" or "experience stage." These individuals realize that hunting is more than just shooting or harvesting an animal. The success of the hunt is measured by the overall experience – the appreciation of the out-of-doors, respect for the animal hunted, the process of the hunt, and the camaraderie shared with other hunters. These individuals realize the importance of introducing and teaching new hunters about the outdoor experience as well as always acting in an ethical and legal manner to help ensure that hunting will be enjoyed by generations to come.
Not all hunters progress through each of these stages, nor do they necessarily do it in this order. Some progress more slowly than others and some never progress to the next stage. However, each hunter should understand this growth process and help others mature and become a more responsible hunter.

Nolo - HLFP Song Collection (ICELAND 2009)
NOLO is a young, very promising band from Reykjavík, Iceland. They are two 18-year old guys, Nonnji Lorange and Ivör Björnsson, who have already been playing together in different bands for some years, before they deceided to work together as NOLO.
"I, Nonnji play guitar and I sing and occasionally play the electric piano. Ivör, plays the organ, sings and plays bass. (...) We record all our music with lo-fi equipment really, at Ivörs basement. Normally we use one microphone in all, usually start recording the drums in a specific song - and then the organ and so on... The instruments we use at the moment are 2 guitars (electric and acoustic), an organ (almost a hammond) f.x. the drums we use or coming from the organ or one of our electric pianos." (Nonnji)
My favourite song: "Fondu" – absolute killer track with fantastic guitar sound!

Recently, Mike from Belching Monkey posed a seemingly simple question on Twitter – what are your 3 favorite IPAs? It's probably an easy question for most people that enjoy having a bit of beer, but for a geek like me it took quite a while to whittle the IPAs I've had down to the top three. Although I struggled quite a bit to come up with beers two and three, coming up with my favorite was easy.
That distinction goes to the Dogfish Head 60 Minute IPA.
I haven't really made my love of the Dogfish Head Brewery a secret here on Brews and Books. My guest posters and myself have written quite lovingly about a number of different brews from the Delaware powerhouse. Hell, I even pushed a Dogfish beer on the community at Murmur.com by incorporating beer in the site book club. But none of the crazy, unique beers they produce hit me quite the same way as one of their tasty (and surprisingly traditional) brews.
Here's how the brewery describes the India Pale Ale;
Our 60 Minute IPA is continuously hopped – more than 60 hop additions over a 60 minute boil (getting a vibe yet of where the name came from?). 60 Minute is a session India Pale Ale brewed with a slew of great NorthWest hops. A powerful, but balanced East Coast I.P.A. with a lot of citrusy hop character. The session beer for hardcore beer enthusiasts!
So, tons of hops, lots of citrus, and the ever-important balance – sounds great coming from the brewer's mouth, but what does it all mean? Follow me down the tasting rabbit hole after the jump.
On the pour, the 60 Minute IPA is a brand-new-penny copper color, orange and bright – in the light, it practically seems to radiate light in the same way that imperial stouts feel like black holes. There's plenty of haze in the glass, and a nice fluffy head that dissipates pretty quickly to leave a bit of lace on the top of the beer. The brewery wasn't kidding about "citrusy hop character" – the 60 Minute has loads of grapefruit and orange in the nose. I'm not sure of the entire hop bill for the 60 separate hop additions, but there are definitely some pine and grassy notes in the aroma as well. Some bready malt and the tiniest hint of alcohol keep the nose from being non-stop hop.
The brewery also wasn't kidding about the beer being balanced – the first sip (not to mention the following ones) is pretty perfect. Up front, the bready malt gives some sweet sugar cookie flavor, followed right up by sharp and citrusy hops. The Dogfish crew created a very drinkable, very sessionable beer by crafting a light-bodied, well-carbonated beer that finishes really dry – so dry that you want another sip right away. It also accomplishes something many other IPAs fail to do; because the hops are added continously during the boil, you get a lot of hop flavor without things being too bitter. Again, yum.
So…hoppy? Check. Balanced? Check. Drinkable? Check. Tasty? Check-chiggity-check! The 60 Minute is a really, really well crafted beer, and deserves it's spot as the best-selling brew from Dogfish Head. If you're looking for a solid, sessionable beer to keep stocked in your fridge, this is the beer.

i have been in such creative slump lately. So I have dusted off a few projects that I shelved because I was too busy trying to make a living instead of working on the things I love .... This is for The Last Dragon, a project I have started and abandoned many times over the years. I have redesigned the some of major characters in the story and am currently up dating the images already done for the story.

Gunny, there's been many great coaches who are non-aggressive on the field and many lousy ones who were idiots.
wwookie Payson, UTNov. 5, 2010 3:48 a.m.
Was this really about Patterson? It made so many references to Bronco (who in the world would compare Patterson to Bronco?) and to Whittingham.
Sorry buddy, but you should leave your BYU bias at home when trying to wrtie a story 'out of your comfort zone'.
Coach Patterson is defensive minded, emotional, loves his players and is willing to sacrifice for the team. He embodies what is good about college football - competitiveness and sportsmanship.
Coach Whit has all of those traits except for the emotional part. The coaching matchup in tomorrows game will be one of the highlights of this game. Hopefully Whit comes out victorious.
Gunny Spanish Fork, UtahNov. 4, 2010 3:46 p.m.
I wish Coach Mendenhall and his coaching staff would be more aggressive like Coach Whit and Patterson. That is waht it will take to get to the next level for BYU Football. This is not a slam on Coach Mendenhall, just my gut feeling. Football is football, coaches need to be football coaches. Lean and mean. Nice Story Dick Harmmon
DEW Cougars Sandy, UTNov. 4, 2010 1:42 p.m.
Texas to become part of Big East? Travel expense? Not traditional when facing those Eastern Schools. Stay put, maybe BIG XII will be calling soon. Sure, tcu will trounced those big east and will get the automatic to every year but will be left out for NC.
Marcus Murray, UTNov. 4, 2010 9:47 a.m.
Patterson's a stud through and through. He fought hard to get the program on the national radar, now nine years later, he is the best program in Texas. That say's something.
AK Cougar Palmer, AKNov. 4, 2010 9:24 a.m.
Great story on a really good coach. These interest stories are almost a better read than the buildup about a critical game. It is going to be a battle at RES this Saturday.
Go Cougars.
Not So Fast Salt Lake City, UTNov. 4, 2010 7:00 a.m.
Interesting story. I follow the Y. but Dick Harmon should write out of his comfort zone a lot more often.

Apple enthusiasts are very much eager for the upcoming iPhone 5C. The packaging images of iPhone 5C have been leaked by iapps. It seems that the packaging will come in a rainbow of colors. It seems to be a high-tech plastic boxing. The name of the phone "iPhone 5C" is emblazoned on the plastic cover.
This type of casing is just making clear that Apple has no started compromising on the quality of packaging too. The plastic always looks cheap however it may have been colored. I guess the target audience for Apple 5C seems to be teenage girls. By looking at the pink plastic covers no boys will ever look at it for buying.
Do whatever it is its just the price of the phone that will attract customers to buy this phone. This kind of cheap packaging will not induce people to buy this phone. Kids may get a cheap tool to play with for sure. Lets see how the actual design and build of the phone will be in coming days.

JAVELIN thrower Kelly Bramhald and hurdler Aiden Davies picked up the top individual honours at Doncaster Athletic Club's annual presentation evening, writes Steve Hossack.
Bramhald won the club's Overall Outstanding Female Track & Field award.
She became the first club member to win a gold medal (senior girls) at the prestigious Aviva English Schools' Championships at Gateshead in July and finished the year in third place in the national Under-20 rankings.
Davies, who competed in the intermediate 400m hurdles and also formed part of the South Yorkshire 4 x 400m relay team at Gateshead, was a double silver medallist at the English Schools' Championships.
He later went on to compete for England in the 400m hurdles and Combined Events international and again finished in the medals.
He also won individual gold (400m hurdles) and team silver (4x 400m relay) in the Sainsbury School Games – the first event to be held at the London Olympic Games Stadium.
Beth Dobbin, the daughter of former Doncaster Rovers footballer Jim Dobbin, Lucy Chappell and Alice Howe, were runners-up to Bramhald.
Bertie Houghton, Brother Jack, and Joe McGrath were runners-up to Davies.
Bramhald, Dobbin (senior girls' 200m), Jack Houghton (senior boys 400m hurdles) and Davies were all presented with club medals to commemorate their medal-winning performances at the English Schools' Championships.
"The Championships is the most prestigious competition for all young athletes," said club chairman Kevin Lincoln.
"To even be chosen to compete is a great accomplishment and something that not many club athletes manage. So to win a medal is credit indeed."

Da Vinci was in many ways ahead of his time, creating mechanical concepts that were not practical with the manufacturing technology and materials available in his day, but that are in common use today. His ideas included a early concepts for "the bicycle, breathing apparatus for divers, hang gliders, elevators, parachutes, cog-wheels, jacks, military tanks, and other warcraft, including a mobile ladder for attacking enemy walls, that looks much like the ones used by firefighters today."
Using computer graphics to recover previously-invisible details from Da Vinci's drawings and sketches, experts have created working models of many of these inventions, and have placed 62 of these models on display in Vienna until May 29.

|What Health Issues
can Acupuncture Treat?
MICROCURRENT POINT STIMULATION (MPS)MPS applies concentrated DC micro-stimulation to produce an "acupuncture" response that "releases" muscle tissue that impinges nerves and causes joint articulations (pain). This action permits increased reinnervation of affected neural pathways, allowing patient pain levels to be substantially decreased, often instantaneously. This multi-pronged approach to the body's nervous and musculoskeletal system is the reason why MPS works so well on pain.
The intention of MPS is to isolate the root causes of a patient's pain by applying micro-stimulation to acupuncture points that relate to different muscles, tissues and systems (neurological, segmental, limbic, myofascial etc).
MPS electrically locates and stimulates a specific series of treatment points (acupuncture, trigger and motor) which, historically, have been proven to help relieve chronic pain syndromes.
In acupuncture and trigger point therapy, the insertion of needles has been scientifically proven to stimulate the release of powerful internal opiates called endorphins. These natural pain relievers are secreted from the pituitary and are circulated throughout your body via your blood stream. Not only are endorphins the most powerful pain relievers known to mankind, they enhance the immune system, reduce stress and produce a feeling of euphoria (endorphins are your feel-good hormones).
Science has long known that a special form of low frequency DC electrical stimulation applied to these same points can reproduce the endorphin response just as in traditional needling. The reason why MPS works so well for pain relief is that it taps into our body's own internal pain relieving system, the endorphin response.
Secondly, MPS releases or relaxes contracted and spastic muscles. Applying MPS to tightened and contracted muscles, or to treatment points which relate to them, "releases" the muscles and permits increased reinnervation of their neural pathways. This process allows the suffering person's pain levels to be substantially decreased.
In other words, by relaxing the muscles there is less pressure on the nerves which calms the nerve pathways, permitting greater range of motion and increased functionality. Also, by keeping the muscles soft and supple, you guard yourself against further injury while at the same time maintaining optimal health of muscle tissue.
MPS then becomes an excellent alternative for the patient that may not do well with needles. MPS Therapy is effective for: migraines, elbow / wrist, hypo / hypertonism, arthritic joints, hip / knee, TMJ, back / neck pain, ankle / foot, parkinsons, torticolis, neuropathies, autism, frozen shoulders, fibromyalgia, headaches, strokes and much more!

I did it! Finally got back around to doing a project from Pinterest. Hopefully I can stick with it and have a new project to share with you every Friday. Even if it is something little. I'll also be attempting more recipes, I think. I pin a lot of recipes. Blog addict, remember? Okay, here's what we're attempting today.
Here's what you'll need.
Yes, it's a headboard made out of cardboard. Pretty cool, right? I thought it was. And easy. And cheap. Start by covering up any gaps in the cardboard. Luckily, we had boxes left over from the move, but they all had gaps where they fold. I just covered them with a little bit of duct tape.
I took the suggestion from the original source and cut out the pattern that I wanted onto a piece of newspaper. This way you can use it for both sides to make sure that it looks the same. Also, then you don't have to free hand it and be upset if you mess it up.
I cut two pieces of newspaper on top of each other, so I ended up with two identical pieces. Then I just taped them down in the area where I needed to cut.
At this point you have your headboard! Now you need to dress it up a bit.
Wrap your fabric around the piece of cardboard. I strayed a little from the original tutorial on this part. I would suggest maybe checking out how she did it.
Pull your fabric tightly around the edges and secure with thumb tacks.
Please, make sure that the thumb tacks didn't come out the other side. It wouldn't be pleasant to scratch yourself on these during the middle of the night.
Then you're done! I know, mine isn't as cute as the picture that I pinned. I'm going to work on it. I think there were a few spots where I failed to pay attention to detail.
1. I didn't cut drastically enough. The design I cut needs to go down farther on each side and to be more bold in general.
2. I didn't use a very good method of securing the fabric. Because of this, you can barely see the design that I cut at all!
It's still a cute idea and completely my fault for not turning out the way that I wanted.
If I make some adjustments and it gets better, I'll make sure to show you.
Until next time.

Give Christo the duct tape
"For the past week, I've had this nasty cough that wakes me up a lot in the middle of the night, so I've been hearing the Brian Lehrer show replay on WNYC around 2 a.m. Last night the topic was about terrorism, again. This was good: A listener suggested Christo wrap the city in duct tape."

Review- AVENGERS: ENDLESS WARTIME
AVENGERS: ENDLESS WARTIME (Marvel, 2013; Hardcover)
Original graphic novel.
Writer: Warren Ellis
Artist: Mike McKone
Colorists: Jason Keith with Rain Beredo
Loathe as I am to admit it, the reign of 616 Marvel Universe continuity is almost at an end. To the world at large, the movie and cartoon versions of these characters are the real versions. If these versions which betray the foundations of the characters at worst or miss the mark at best keeps these characters alive and saves them from falling into obscurity, is this really such a bad thing? Yes. Yes, it is.
Warren Ellis is a writer whose work I usually adore. Here he is doing ham-fisted hack writing rife with bad dialogue and cheesy one-liners, all in an attempt to keep the characterizations of the movie versions of the Avengers intact. This is supposedly in continuity. I guess it is...just not comic book continuity. Mike McKone is a wonderful artist, so there isn't anything to complain about in the art department.
This is one of Marvel's new Original Graphic Novels, standalone stories originally published in a hardcover book format. DC has had much mainstream bookstore success with their Batman and Superman ones and so Marvel has rolled this out to cash in. Reaching new readers is never a bad thing in my opinion. I have been called a continuity snob. Continuity is important to a point. If you do not have a structure for these stories to take place in, then what is the point at all? You may as well keep retelling the origin stories over and over and over, like the movies. Because audiences will never grow tired of those, right?
Movie Captain America and movie Iron Man are the most likable of the bunch, while movie Hawkeye and movie Black Widow are forgettable. Oh, who am I kidding? I hate comic book Hawkeye, too. Anyhow, movie Bruce Banner (the second one) in comic form doesn't work for me. Referring to the Hulk as "the other guy"...I don't know. Granted, I am not a regular Hulk reader, but it doesn't ring true to me. And of course Wolverine is added in to crap things up.
The villain is a World War II-era artificial intelligence which has merged with some Asgardian creature to create some hybrid that wants to kill Captain America and Thor. There is also some political metaphor about drones. Like it or not (and I don't), drones are a reality in this century. They will be fighting our wars and delivering our pizzas, and we'll all keep telling ourselves how much better off we are now.
If groan inducing dialogue and superheroes who swear are your cup of tea, then this book is for you. Face it, tiger...you've hit the ham and cheese jackpot!
Junk Food For Thought rating: 2.5 out of 5.
The OCD zone- The free digital copy code is no longer on a stiff piece of cardboard glued into the book block. It is now behind a sticker which must be peeled off. While still annoying because it "ruins" the book, it is less annoying than the card.
The trim size of this book is the same as other Marvel oversized hardcovers, which is larger than the Premiere Edition hardcovers.
DVD-style Extras included in this book: None.
Paper rating: 2.75 out of 5. While the glossy coated stock paper is of a fair weight, it is the shriveled nature of it which knocks it down 1.25 points on The OCD scale. At least a third of the book has this shriveling. This book came factory sealed in shrinkwrap. My house is a climate controlled environment, and it was like this as soon as I cracked open the cellophane. This is not the first time that I have noticed this from this printer (R.R. Donnelley) with books made in this timeframe. I believe that it has to do with using young, green trees which did not have time to properly cure. As paper demand shrinks and costs rise, printers cut corners as much as possible. Decontented product will only accelerate the demise of print, pushing fans to digital. It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy...all to save a buck.
Binding rating: 4 out of 5. Perfect bound (glued) hardcover.
Hardback cover coating rating: 5 out of 5. The hardback has a nice, thick glossy lamination which is resistant to scuffing.

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only obsessive nut that is driven off the deep end by that shrivelly paper. WTF? I'm paying good money for this stuff....I want shrivel-free paper! DC's books suck now, but at least they have non-shrivelly paper. I've been looking forward to this book, but I'm literally a decade behind in my Marvel reading. I just finished the AVENGERS DISASSEMBLED story.....Damn anal-retentive continuity hound that I am, I just can't bring myself to read these books out of order. Whatever that order may be....ReplyDeleteReplies
Haha right on, Dan! DC had this problem on the Before Watchmen hardcovers, at least one or two of them.Delete
You have to go through a really dark period in Avengers history...dare you plow through EIGHT YEARS of Bendis?

Early clinical results using a new interlaminar device (INTRA Spine) in lumbar D.D.D.
Search Medline for
|May 30, 2008
Objective: All interspinous systems presently available create, even if in different degrees, a significant reduction of the flexion-extension and, to a lesser degree of the bending and axial rotation. Furthermore, they are distant from the IAR.
Methods: We present a new device for interlaminar assistance in the degenerative pathologies of mobile lumbar segments. The device, made of medical silicone (75/80 shore) with a polyethylene terephthalate coating, has an advantage with respect to other similar interspinous devices, which is that it may be implanted more anteriorily (interlaminar) and therefore as close as possible to the center of istantaneous rotation of the segment.
Furthermore, with this device, it is possible to restore the physiological lumbar lordosis, thanks to the augmentation of the supraspinous fibrous complex by means of a robust artificial ligament that is passed around the two adjacent spinous processes.
A surgical instrument, created ad hoc, allows us to perform the procedure with a mininvasive monolateral approach and with the maximum anatomical respect for the structures.
The indications are:
- Black disc-facet syndrome
- Soft and/or foraminal stenosis
- Lumbar canal stenosis after decompression (no laminectomy)
- Large dimension lumbar disk herniations in young patients
- Topping-off (to prevent the junctional pathology)
Results: The first results (100 implants) seem promising, even though taken after a short follow-up.
Compared to the pre-operative controls performed with CT scan, dynamic X Ray and MRI, these identical post-operative examinations demonstrate that the physiological movement of the motion segment that was previously altered, is now restored.
The clinical results are evaluated by VAS and Oswestry.
Conclusions: We think we can say that the interlaminar devices, seen as they closer to the IAR, help re-create a ROM that is very similar to the physiological one, and therefore opens the way to a new and improved possibility of motor preservation in the surgical treatment of the degenerative lumbar spine pathology.
We are so satisfied with the first clinical results that we decided to begin an international randomized study in a few months which is controlled by an independent observer to validate the use of this new device.

Earlier this month, the Internet lit up with a tantalizing whodunit. Someone had leaked to bloggers confidential internal fundraising and strategic documents from the Heartland Institute, a Chicago-based think-tank that questions global warming orthodoxy.
The apparent goal: to discredit and embarrass those who raise doubts about the science behind climate change.
Heartland officials cried foul, asserting that at least one of the documents was forged. They vowed to track down the leaker and pursue charges.

The fervor for frivolous litigation in the aftermath of the NFL's Super Bowl ticket debacle only further strengthens the political argument for tort reform.
Those 400 people who came to Cowboys Stadium last Sunday with enthusiasm and, more important, an $800 ticket, only to discover that there was no seat for them, were wronged. They paid for the promise of a seat at a major sporting event. They didn't get that seat for whatever reasons. They should be reimbursed for the cost of the ticket, plus interest.
The NFL did precisely that.
But typical of this country's desire to assign excessive fault, there will be a flurry of class-action lawsuits bent on making the aristocratic NFL and Dallas Cowboys owner/bon vivant Jerry Jones suffer financially far more than they rightfully should.
How much did those 400 people without seats really suffer? How much emotional pain did they actually endure watching Super Bowl XLV from the stadium concourses with access to unlimited food and adult beverages at league expense and the opportunity to participate in the on-field postgame celebration?
The NFL offered those 400 a choice of ticket reimbursement at three times the cost of the ticket (that amounts to $2,400) plus a ticket to next year's Super Bowl in Indianapolis (that they could easily broker for a cost of $5,000 if their favorite team isn't playing), or they could get free travel and accommodations to another, perhaps more tropical, Super Bowl venue.
That's the equivalent of an airline bumping you off a flight to Newark, N.J., because there weren't enough seats and, as compensation, awarding you three complimentary first-class tickets to Paris.
But even that's not enough for these people.
The cry for litigation in this particular instance is nothing more than white-collar entitlement.
Only a precious few are so financially flush to easily afford Super Bowl seats. They don't have to apologize for making a lot of money. They can spend it anyway they choose, and if they choose to throw it at a football game, that's their privilege.
But it's still just a football game.
Having them employ a legal remedy that's really in place for those physically injured and emotionally distressed in workplace transgressions that affect their livelihood isn't just disingenuous. It's ethically repugnant.
But why should a good conscience stop people from what their greed tells them is the right thing?
NFL officials should have never let this happen. They know it. They screwed up. They've gone more than out of their way to right a wrong.
But there comes a point when those supposed victims must assume their own responsibility in blowing up something so far out of proportion that the wrong really isn't as sinister as they want you to believe.
That time is now.

11-30-2011 #12aliraq Guest
yes you need all links ..install the pkg demo and... and enter the full game >> red faction >> PS3_GAME >> USRDIR >> build... cut all file in build and paste in USRDIR.
change eboot + param http://www.mediafire.com/?lko0d30128jn2hn
copy game on hdd external chose game from multiman or rogero and run game from app home
Note : eject disk before run game
11-30-2011 #13master32820 Guest
Does it save or not?
12-01-2011 #14pkc415 Guest
This didn't work for me. I installed the demo, cut & pasted all files in "build" folder which contains "ps3" folder & eboot file, replaced eboot & param files, run in app home but get an error msg. Did I do something wrong?
12-01-2011 #15shadow2066 Guest
Install the demo, and copy the files of the disc game (folder-build (dg) to folder usrdir (demo) then run it from xmb like the demo!
It works, but at the end of level 1 there is no finish... no freeze but level 1 never end (bug? or problem of the Demo Eboot?)
12-01-2011 #16HeyManHRU Guest
This fix just makes you play a little longer in level 1 than in the demo. After level 1 the game is basically over for you because it freezes like shadow2066 mentioned and there is no way around it. I would just stay away from this game until there is a full fix. (You may want to add this info in the first post boss )
12-01-2011 #17shadow2066 Guest
I'm sorry but the level you can play isn't level 1, it is level 6 like in the demo and at the end of this level the game doesn't freeze you can play but there is no way out.
12-02-2011 #18HeyManHRU Guest
Hmm alright, but I still don't understand, does this "fix" give you any more gameplay than the Demo does?
12-02-2011 #19spunkybunny Guest
all it does it let you play the demo which is what the demo does. It's fake, thats what it is.
There is no way to play it unless you have the TB dongle or get it on xbox 360 where it's been playable since it was first leaked all those months ago.

Included in the set is one clear gloss, and four tinted glosses. The tinted ones aren't massively pigmented and don't claim to be, but they do offer a nice sheer wash of colour, and in one case, subtle sparkle. I love the finish of these glosses - they make the lips appear really plump and juicy, and the formula is thick and quite sticky which means it stays put for a while. This does mean it's probably not the best gloss for a windy day, as I can imagine the whole pesky hair-stuck-to-lips thing occurring... Not the best look!
I'm definitely glad that I bought these glosses - I love the cheeky name, gorgeous scents, and I'm even a fan of the weird tingly, pins and needles effect they have on the lips! I only have one or two lip glosses in my entire collection so it's nice to suddenly have five shiny new options for when the mood to wear gloss strikes. And, this set only cost me £7 - half the RRP as it's one of Soap and Glory's Christmas 2013 gift sets that are currently half price at Boots. Bargain!

- Playstation 2
Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) announced the upcoming release of EyeToy : Kinetic, an innovative new physical exercise title produced in association with NIKE Motionworks. Developed by SCEE's London Studio exclusively for PlayStation 2, EyeToy: Kinetic represents a unique new development in physical gaming and should launch in January 2005. The first interactive fitness title, EyeToy: Kinetic allows players to improve not only general fitness but also reactions, posture, balance, breathing and all round body toning and conditioning. You can view the first teaser trailer for the title by following the download tab above.
In the early stages of development, the NIKE Motionworks team of fitness training experts played a key role, providing information about the key exercises and movements to be included in the game and also aiding in the development of the warm-up, stretching and toning sequences.
The NIKE team also contributed greatly to the creation of EyeToy: Kinetic's Personal Trainer Mode, aiding in the structure and sequence of the exercise routines, and offering insight into the validity and health value of the movements within the routines.
EyeToy: Kinetic offers a wide variety of fitness activities that far exceeds the traditional home workout video. The EyeToy camera, with the addition of a newly developed Wide Angled Lens that attaches to the front of the camera, allows for increased levels of interactivity projecting the exerciser's image onto the television screen, enabling them to physically interact with their environments.
With four areas of discipline to choose from, EyeToy: Kinetic offers a wide variety of exercises for players to choose from. Aero Motion and Combat zones help to increase the player's overall fitness level, inspired by moves and stances from activities such as Tai Kwon Do, Modern Dance, Kick Boxing, Aerobics and Karate. The Mind and Body zone focuses on breathing, concentration and flexibility, taking inspirations from Yoga and Tai Chi, leaving players feeling relaxed, yet with their body fully conditioned. The Toning zone helps the player to tone specific muscle groups utilising slow and refined movements.
Offering a tailor-made fitness regime that encourages and motivates players to develop, improve and commit themselves to exercising, EyeToy: Kinetic is easily adaptable to fit in within a busy lifestyle, whatever the person's fitness level.

British Transport Police (BTP) detectives are appealing for information after a man exposed himself and performed an indecent act in front of two schoolgirls.
Investigators have released CCTV images of a man they would like to speak to in connection with the incident which took place between 1.30pm and 2pm on Saturday, September 8.
Detective Constable Tony Bronger, the investigating officer, is asking for anyone with information to come forward.
He said: ""The two 14-year-old girls who boarded the train at Gatwick Airport, noticed a man get on at Worthing station and take a seat across the aisle to them.
"A short while later they realised that the man was exposing himself and performing an indecent act whilst looking at them.
"We believe the man left the train at Emsworth station."
Officers have carried out a number of enquiries in order to establish the identity of the man, including speaking to witnesses and circulating images on police intelligence systems, but to no avail.
"We have now isolated an image and are looking for anyone who may recognise the man pictured to come forward," continued DC Bronger.
