Most relaxed: Rossland, B.C.
The bonus of a small ski town that hasn't yet crossed over into resort-town territory? The locals aren't jaded and the tourists aren't pushy. Stop into almost any watering hole or breakfast spot (like Clansey's Cappuccino, on the three-block main drag, Columbia Avenue), and you're likely to make new friends. Look for pockets of activity at the Flying Steamshovel and at Drift Izakaya, where locals go for a sushi fix.
Slopes: With only 112,000 total visitors per year (and only 6 total lifts), the tree-lined trails at Red Mountain Resort ($63 U.S.) stay fairly quiet. Even the newly 300% larger deck at Red's base lodge shouldn't dilute the mellow non-scene scene.
Sleeps: There are plenty of hot tub–equipped condos, or try the homey Red Shutter Inn (from $99 U.S.), the closest hotel to the lifts and the base camp for snowcat skiing with Big Red Cats ($352 U.S.). Wake to the smell of bacon wafting from Red Shutter's first-floor kitchen, where group breakfasts are fuel for days of powering down untracked powder in the surrounding Monashees.
Info: West Kootenay Regional is about 30 minutes away, but connections are pricey; Spokane Int'l is about a 2½-hour drive.

Just inside the North Beach car park of the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Reserve, a statue of a 16th-century Spaniard faces west. Ignoring the shore that lies behind him, his gaze, shielded by a conquistador's helmet, seems to look beyond the immediate. It flickers over the thick vegetation of this lush wetland zone, settling on the bright light of the afternoon sky. And there it lingers, musing on the question posed by the horizon.
A car park – where family vehicles have pulled up for a day on what is an undisturbed section of northern Florida's Atlantic coast – is an odd place for such a monument. But then, this is no ordinary statue – and, if one theory is correct, this is no ordinary location.
Instead, this sculpted figure of Juan Ponce de León is the latest attempt to fix a definitive marker to the precise spot where the USA was conceived. In April 1513, this grizzled Spanish voyager became the first documented European to set foot on what is now the American mainland. He is believed to have landed at a latitude of 30°8'N – co-ordinates that would have had him arriving 16 miles north of what is now the city of St Augustine.
Florida is many things to many people: a giddy enclave of rollercoaster loops, theme-park thrills and excitable children; a tireless party playground where the bars of Miami and Fort Lauderdale scarcely shut; a warm-weather wonderland where a tan is ensured. But it is rarely perceived as a hotbed of history. And as the 500th anniversary year of 1513's major moment has come into play, Florida has developed a taste for its half-ignored past.
The problem is that no one really knows where Ponce de Leon had his planet-changing epiphany. Several facts are uncontested: that he was part of Christopher Columbus's second voyage to the New World in 1493; that he was the first governor of Puerto Rico, but was pushed from power in 1511; that, on being unseated, he decided to look west for "undiscovered" territories; that he and his fleet of three ships departed Puerto Rico on 4 March 1513, sighted the Florida coast on 2 April, and, having waded ashore the next day, probably met native tribesmen as he sailed south trying to map a find which he believed was an island.
But the exact site of the footfall that fomented the first Spanish settlements in continental North America remains shrouded in mystery. That semi-accepted reading of 30°8'N would have been achieved using an astrolabe, a medieval navigational device that consulted the constellations as rudimentary guides, and was not accurate to modern standards. Furthermore, the main source for the crosshairs falling at 30°8'N is Antonio de Herrera y Tordesillas, a Spanish historian who reputedly based his account of the voyage on Ponce de León's own log (since lost) – but was writing nearly a century later in 1601.
The issue has spilled into the courtroom. Four places, strung along 280 miles of Florida's east coast, claim to be the giant X on the chart – St Augustine, the small towns of Ponce Inlet and Jupiter, the sandy strip of Melbourne Beach. In January, the Florida Historical Society staged a mock trial at Palm Beach County Courthouse, where the quartet stated their cases. Costumed actors spoke. "Evidence" was presented. No verdict was returned.
But what is clear to me, as I admire the new statue (it was unveiled on 2 April), is that there is something special about Florida's upper east side. Wandering to the ocean, I realise that this particular beach can be little changed from the day when Ponce de León may have glimpsed it. It has clean, pale sand and a wild verdancy, all wind-battered palm trees and salt-flecked seagrass. Moreover, the stretch of coast that runs from Jacksonville to West Palm Beach is little known to British visitors, despite delineating a state where Orlando and Miami are practically second homes. My plan is to see it all, visiting the four contenders to the title of "America's birthplace" by tracing State Road A1A – which, in cascading 329 miles from the border with Georgia to Key West, barely leaves the shore.
Half an hour south of the statue, St Augustine is alive with history. Whether or not it was the first landing site, it was undoubtedly the first European settlement in the future US, founded in 1565 by another far-foraging Spaniard, Pedro Menéndez de Avilés. Its tight grid of streets clings to this era, most notably in the form of the Castillo de San Marcos. Built between 1672 and 1695 to safeguard Madrid's fledgling possession, this fortress of hard coquina blocks was in military use until 1900, and was never taken during this time.
Within, I find ghosts of colonial Spain – cannons jutting over battlements; a musty chapel where a stone altar waits in silence. This theme is replicated in the Cathedral Basilica, which also dates to 1565 – dark wooden beams; deep red décor; light flooding through stained glass. On the rear wall, a set of murals delivers an optimistic treatise on Spain's ingress into the New World, soldiers, missionaries and indigenous Americans praying in unison – with no room to mention the violence and disease that would so afflict the latter.
On the opposite side of Cathedral Place, Avilés Street is the city's oldest thoroughfare. Certainly, it is old enough that the tiny church it once contained, Nuestra Señora de los Remedios, was built in time for colonial Spain's nemesis, Sir Francis Drake, to burn it down in 1586. The Spanish flag still flies at its entrance, but nowadays this narrow strip hides galleries and antique shops, plus a wholly 21st-century restaurant in Cellar 6, where I pause for pan-seared scallops ($25/£16). Nearby, the central drag of St George's Street is thronged with stores and eateries. As a bar, Sangrias sounds like a refugee from the English 1980s, but its long balcony overlooks a hive of humanity to fine effect, and the Ancient City Classico version of its titular tipple ($8/£5) is rich with orange and cherries.
St Augustine is the heart of Florida's 500th anniversary celebrations. Birthday presents range from Colonial Quarter – a family-friendly recreation of the Spanish city of yore, complete with musket demonstrations, which opened on St George's Street in March – to a Spanish food and wine festival, all gloopy olive oils and rosy riojas, scheduled for October. Then there is the exhibition that is currently dominating the main Visitor Centre. The staging of Picasso: Art & Arena (until 11 August) – a selection of the great man's scratchy depictions of bullfighting, on loan from the Fundación Picasso Museo in Malaga, underlines how seriously St Augustine takes its connection to its first inhabitants' motherland.
Leaving on the A1A, I call at St Augustine Lighthouse. The 165ft and 219 steps to the look-out of this 1871 beacon are demanding in the morning heat – but the view supports Avilés's cleverness in placing his project here. At this height, the city's wise position – set back from the Atlantic on the defensible channel of the Matanzas River – is visible. This is the start of a drive that will bring other revelations – not least the prettiness of the initial 50 miles, where towns with such names as Summer Haven and Hammock remember an innocent epoch of American holidays, and Flagler Beach, where I halt for the night, is happily trapped in the Sixties.
Si Como No Inn is a traditional seafront motel, painted in a merry rainbow of colours. It offers surfboards for rent at $20 (£13) per day – an inviting prospect thanks to the waves that break on its doorstep. And there is something similarly alluring about The Funky Pelican, an eatery injected into the restored planks of the pier, where the Pesto Funk omelette supplies my morning nutrition. Outside, a team of local fishermen have already taken up their posts, probing the Atlantic with rods outstretched.
This is America for American holidaymakers: unfussy, relaxed, amazed when overseas tourists happen upon it (and few do). So too, in a rather different way, is Daytona Beach, 20 miles further south. Here, in this city of motorsports, local law allows you to drive on the beach (for a $5/£3 fee). Curious, I amble down (on foot) for a closer inspection. Sure enough, a truck is parked next to the dunes, there are tyre tracks on the sand, and speed-limit warnings (10mph) shout their message within metres of children playing ball games – one of those strange situations where, for all its familiarity, America can appear utterly foreign. Retreating to my own car, I fail to suppress a laugh on noticing a sign, infused with self-denial, that asks visitors to leave "nothing but footprints on our beautiful beach".
This environmentally unfriendly regulation stays in force almost as far as Ponce Inlet, where the vista changes again. Gone are the high-rise hotels of Daytona Beach, replaced by rows of boats and a marina community. In truth, its name is the prominent basis for the idea of the area as the landing site, and even this is a slice of opportunism, the town having borne the less romantic title of Mosquito Inlet until 1927. But the panorama seen from the lighthouse that rears to 175ft in Maryland brick shows why the inlet – a wide opening in the barrier islands that shape this portion of the coast – might have attracted a curious explorer. On the water, meanwhile, the Down The Hatch seafood eatery caters to today's visitors.
Below Ponce Inlet the shore becomes fragmented, forcing me inland – then through Port Canaveral, where vast cruise liners occupy the docks. I rejoin the A1A for uninspiring progress through Indian Harbour Beach, where condominiums squat in front of the ocean – only for the Atlantic to reassert its authority at Melbourne Beach. And here, suddenly, is Juan Ponce de León Landing Park, where a billboard announces: "This is a historic site."
Perhaps it is. Perhaps it isn't. The claim is built on the research of a single historian, one Douglas Peck, who re-sailed Ponce de León's route in 1992, and found that the currents brought him ashore here, 125 miles south of St Augustine. Alongside the boardwalk, an information panel declares that "contrary to current consensus, [Ponce de León] landed at Melbourne Beach". It is a bold statement, but whatever its veracity, the beach is an untainted wonder. Another sign advertises that, between March and October, sea turtles nest and hatch here. I dig my toes into the sand, and observe a lone surfer as he strides out to greet the rolling surge. There would be worse places to trip over a new continent.
The last leg of my tour is a flurry of contrasts: gilded gated complexes framing the A1A south of Sebastian Inlet; raw leafiness at Fort Pierce Inlet State Park. Then comes Stuart, an idyllic town where cafes are arranged on St Lucia Inlet (part of Florida's Intracoastal Waterway), and the current exhibition at the excellent Elliott Museum – Leonardo Da Vinci: Machines In Motion (until 23 August) – salutes another 16th-century adventurer.
I reach Jupiter at dusk, drift into a waterside hotel, and wake to birdsong. Outside, Jupiter Inlet is the distant long-shot in the race to be 1513's poster boy, able to proffer no more solid a reason for being America's first landing site than its proximity to the transatlantic Gulf Stream (something that would become a factor as the New World grew, but would have been irrelevant 500 years ago). Yet with sunlight dancing on its surface, this hardly matters. As I watch pelicans dive-bombing the shallows in search of breakfast, a thought that occurred 18 hours earlier as I took a diversion into the protected coastal marshlands of Canaveral National Seashore – and saw the lift-off paraphernalia of John F Kennedy Space Center clambering mightily above the treeline – is reinforced: that whether you are a mariner, an astronaut or a tourist, this glorious region of Florida is ripe for discoveries.

Community Leadership
Young people find more success when they're supported by caring adults.
Be they parents, teachers, relatives, neighbors, youth workers or coaches, the adults in a child's orbit can do powerful things to alter the trajectory of a child's life. What's more, a network of leaders who care about children, and who are committed to working in partnership with them, can do powerful things to influence resources to align for the best interest of youth.
Through our community leadership work -- which includes neighborhood councils and our Community Connection Small Grants Program -- we develop resident leaders to accelerate the development of a network of mobilized, informed and diverse population that actively supports young people's educational and personal achievement.
Also important is encouraging and supporting youth leaders. Our youth are our emerging leaders. They must be listened to and invested in.
Read about the importance of investing in community leaders from a group of Detroit resident-leaders in Maximizing Returns: Investing in Nontraditional Leaders. This report was commissioned by the Skillman Foundation as part of Kids Matter Here: An Analytic Review of the 10-year Good Neighborhoods Initiative.
Community Connections Small Grants Program
The Community Connections Small Grants Program provides a pathway for the Foundation to support innovative, grassroots efforts to impact community change. While the Foundation typically awards grants to nonprofit organizations with federal tax-exempt status and revenues greater than $100,000, the small grants program awards grants of $500 to $5,000. It gives the Foundation flexibility to provide opportunities beyond these limitations and makes it possible to respond quickly to community needs. Since implementation in 2006, the small grants program has awarded approximately $3 million to nearly 500 community groups. A panel made up of residents meets monthly to review grant applications and make funding recommendations for grants.
Download an evaluation of the Community Connections Program, 2006-2015
To learn more, or apply for a small grant, visit Prevention Network, our partner and the program administrator.
Our strategies
- We work with partners to make it easier for Detroit residents to collect and analyze data.
- We help build networks that make collaboration and collective impact possible.
- We support leadership development opportunities for youth and adults.
- We work to strengthen community assets that share our agenda for children.

[QUOTE=YBNormal07]18-22%???? WRX's typically dyno at about 165 -170 whp. Much more than an 18% loss. I'm stand by my 10% difference between and AWD car and a FWD car. STi's, call it 225-235 whp depending on the dyno, again, 22% on the low side, more likely 25% I'd say 22% is on the low side.Originally Posted by schoolloans
Go look up the drivetrain loss for a fwd car... They loose about 15%. RSX-s, early years...200 hp, 170whp...15%. 10% difference is right on I think. I'll edit a little and say 22-25% for AWD (and countless dyno's to show it) and 12-15% for FWD cars. Again, this is all based on different dynos, but certainly there is significant;y more drivetrain loss with AWD and there's the added weight too.
And of course I was talking about cars that have equal weights, obviously you'd have to assume that.
Last thing, how much do you think torque is helping you on a roll after you're in the power???? Hardly at all. Once rolling and in the rpms, torque doesn't mean much of anything. Its nice for around town, or off a slow corner, but on a roll, its really not an advantage.
[quote=schoolloans]You are choosing the most optimistic numbers for the FWD platform vs the most pessimistic numbers for the AWD platform. This is an extremely old argument and has been proven incorrect on this board a number of times. Choose to believe as you will. As an owner of a WRX, an STi, and a Legacy, all modified at various stages, I speak from experience, with dyno's graphs (somewhere) I can post to back it up. Can you say the same? Granted, this is all bench racing, and only heads up matchups would determine where things really are, but then I don't pick a car based on it's supposed numbers, nor to I jump into a discussion like this without actual experience. It is obvious you are choosing your numbers to suit your position. Thats fine. Just please be clear in what you are trying to say in the first place, as I note you did not say anything about the change in numbers you originally posted of 10-15%, now saying that 10% is right on. What happened to the 15%? By your logic, the actual span is now 5-15% yes? Since your are allowing for 5% to the negative, why not 5% to the positive? I'll even give you some support. My stock STi dynoed at 255. That equals a 15% drivetrain loss. Do I believe that number. No I don't. However, even at a stock figure of 240 HP, you are still looking at only a 20% loss, which, BTW, refutes the 22% to 25% loss you are referring to. We could go on and on to debate this, but it won't make a difference as you and I obviously do not see eye to eye on this. Feel free to provide me with link to the STi's that posted a 225 stock dyno though. I'm well aware that there are a few out there, but the vast majority are much higher than this. It has been demostrated since the STi first hit the steet that it averages around 240 or so the wheels in stock form. After all, a stock 12.9 1/4 mile time does not support a dyno of 225 now does it? I also wouldn't call 104 through the traps exactly sluggish either. Same goes for a stock WRX time of 14.0. The physics are with me. You simply can't get a 3200 lb car to run a 12.9 with only 225 to the wheels. The math will never work. So I guess my car was one of those "factory flukes" (in this day and age of robotic assembly lines right).Originally Posted by YBNormal07
I personally could care less what helps me from a roll. Sure, seeing what your car will do against another is a blast, and I can say I've participated a number of times. Who doesn't. Those who do concern themselves with that aspect, well, more power to 'em. Performance racing is much more than putting your foot to the floor from a roll and seeing who comes out on top and some undetermined distance. IMHO, it's prevaliance comes from inexperience or inability to launch a vehcicle from a dead stop. The only sport that requires racing from a roll with no turns is top speed events such as out at the salt flats. I admire the commitment it takes to partake in those events, but it really isn't something that translates to driving on the road. The torque matters significantly when you are powering out of a corner, which very few cars to better then our platforms. It's just the nature of the beast that since you have 4 tires to push/pull you while turning at the same time, it will be faster at this point. A car that only dominates in a rolling run is great for fame on a public street, but will likely get trashed at a true race venue such as the 1/4 mile or road course where skill is needed to actually apply the power in a useful manner.
I guarantee that you will get a bigger smile on your face launching a WRX from a stop over a rolling race with a civic any day of the week.

i'm not a big fan of dismissing drivetrain layouts altogether. it's engineering that matters a lot more than what's on paper.
Porsche puts their engines over the rear axle in the 911 and makes it work; i think FWD has come a long way with the Mini Cooper, Acura TSX, Mazda 3, and yes, the Si.
sorry to call anyone a fanboy, it's just that how else can you describe a group of people that dismiss cars automatically because of its drivetrain layout? a Neon ACR will spank most WRX's on a road coarse, and feels right at home doing it.

Describe a group of people that dismiss FWD entirely. . hmmm, Experienced?Originally Posted by AngelBoy
Have you ever driven FWD? Now have you tried to put power to the ground with FWD?
How about coming out of a corner, or coming out of the hole? Torque steer & spin. . .not everyone can drive around all the time with traction bars on the back to keep load on the fronts.
And yes, I've driven plenty of FWD cars both stock and very heavily modded from 60hp honda's to 400+fwhp gst's and srt4's.

My experience comes from my ownership of a Maxima, and from renting/driving many different cars. Can a FWD car do well on a road course? Sure, I don't think anyone's said anything to the contrary.
The point is that after driving AWD and nicer RWD cars, I now loathe performance cars with FWD. You can quote numbers all day from Autocross or magazines, and you won't change the fact that I don't like the way they put their power to the ground, well-engineered or not. It's just a preference. You're welcome to disagree, of course.
I've recently driven a late-model 911; your attempt to create some kind of kinship between that layout and a FWD car is kinda strange. From the point of view of handling dynamics, the 911 felt completely different from any FWD car I've been in.

well you make good points but there is a strong kinship b/w a 911 and a good handling FWD car; they both have less-than-optimal layouts to begin with. in a FWD car, most of the weight is up front, and so are the drive wheels. in the 911, most of the weight is in back, and so are the drive wheels. to make either car handle well takes some good engineering.
and yes, Subaru's AWD is excellent, but its 5-speed's are absolute junk and you know it. i honestly wouldn't mind trading in 2 drive wheels for a slick shifting six speed these days. my point is that a FWD car shouldn't be dismissed because it's FWD, you have to look at the total package.
embattled, we prevail...only victory exhaled.
I would subscribe to that argument if the powered wheels on a fwd weren't the ones steering it.Originally Posted by AngelBoy
i think everyone's driven FWD. yes, i've tried to put power down with FWD, it's pretty easy considering most FWD cars are nose heavy and underpowered.Originally Posted by BrianH
the only difference in handling, that i feel, between my Mazda 3 s (sport package) and WRX was the bump steer. when turning in a corner, the WRX's independent suspension kept the wheels independent, whereas midcorner bumps would upset my 3's chassis. but on a smooth road course, an amateur like myself would be hard pressed to tell the difference. my 3 is delightfully neutral around New Jersey's jughandles, and i'm coming from a modified WRX. it's 160hp isn't gonna spin the inside tire anytime soon.
and a Neon ACR will rape a WRX on a road course and you know it. i think all in all, if you don't give those wheels too much power, a well setup FWD car can give the same smiles per mile.

although you're absolutely right, this would only affect steering feel (which is actually important, but we're talking handling).Originally Posted by Trainrex

You'll recognize her from "Dancing With the Stars," but we bet you never thought Brooke Burke would share one of her most intimate mothering moments with you. In this excerpt from a chapter in her book, "The Naked Mom," she does just that.
I can't be positive about this, because it's one of those taboo subjects that only the closest friends usually dare share with each other, but I'm pretty sure that most women harbor at least one shocking, guilty secret about their worst mommy moment. I don't mean the funny tales from the trenches about little Brittany answering the phone and telling a prospective employer that mommy's on the toilet. I'm talking about those heart-stopping moments when something unthinkable happens, and - justifiably or not - you blame yourself.
Mine came when my second-born was around a year old. Neriah was at preschool, and I was meeting two girlfriends for coffee at Starbucks. When I got there, Sierra was asleep in her car seat, but the parking gods were smiling down on us, and there was a space right out front. So I rolled the windows down enough to let air in, put one of those sunshades on the windshield, locked the car, and zipped inside, figuring my friends and I could enjoy our coffee at a table outside right by the car, and I would let Sierra sleep. But after we had gotten our drinks, my friends settled in at a window table inside, and without thinking, I plopped down with them.
We'd been chatting for maybe 20 minutes when I heard a car alarm start blaring. Glancing out the window, I could see a small crowd gathering and heard people shouting. I suddenly realized it was my car at the center of this ruckus. I had completely forgotten about Sierra! My heart was pounding out of my chest as I leaped up and ran outside to find an angry mini-mob surrounding my car, trying to get in through a window to rescue my poor daughter, who was red-faced and screaming inside. I was shaking and crying as onlookers screamed at me, "What's wrong with you?"
My girlfriend hustled me into the driver's seat with a stern command: Get in the car and just go! Go! Sobbing, I drove away, quickly turning down a quiet side street to pull over. I held Sierra and apologized to her and cried with her. I was terrified, and so humiliated and pissed off at myself for being so friggin' scatterbrained that I had left my child in the car. I could have been arrested for neglect. My children could have been taken away from me. My daughter could have died. I felt like the worst mother in the universe. Call it baby brain, or just sheer irresponsibility, call it whatever you like, but it was awful, and it makes me shake even today to recount it. I felt guilty beyond words. It's still a painful memory, obviously, but I eventually accepted that this was one of those times when the universe was sending me a wake-up call: I needed to slow down and pay attention.
Brooke Burke, co-host of TV's "Dancing With the Stars," is a mother of four, president of BabooshBaby.com, co-CEO of ModernMom.com, and author of the recent book "The Naked Mom" (New American Library), from which the above is excerpted.

In addition to explaining how the rules work, the filing goes into iTunes interaction with the feature. The desktop store could allow users to view statements and to be alerted when they are about to spend more than a pre-determined limit. Apple has been considering multiple patents on the NFC technology and Mastercard has recently stated that it wants to have every platform support NFC mobile payments which would imply that it has been talking to Cupertino.
Right now in the States, mobile payments are limited to the availability of NFC on just two Nexus smartphones, the Sprint Nexus S 4G and the Samsung GALAXY Nexus, and Mastercard's system. This leaves Google waiting for Isis mobile wallet to launch in the middle of the year or for Google Wallet to be available on more handsets. Once either occurs, NFC will get broader distribution. Apple will probably need to throw its support behind one or both of the mobile wallets although with its patent, iTunes could be used as a mobile wallet which would allow iOS users to have a complete NFC mobile payment option.

McAfee Labs recently released the "McAfee Labs Threats Report: Third Quarter 2013," which found new efforts to circumvent digital signature app validation on both PCs and Android-based devices. The McAfee Labs team identified a new family of mobile malware that allows an attacker to bypass the digital signature validation of apps on Android devices, which contributed to a 30 percent increase in Android-based malware. At the same time, traditional malware signed with digital signatures grew by 50 percent to more than 1.5 million samples. Less surprising but no less daunting was a 125 percent increase in spam.
"The efforts to bypass code validation on mobile devices, and commandeer it altogether on PCs, both represent attempts to circumvent trust mechanisms upon which our digital ecosystems rely," said Vincent Weafer, senior vice president of McAfee Labs. "The industry must work harder to ensure the integrity of these technologies given they are becoming more pervasive in every aspect of our daily lives."
The third quarter also saw notable events in the use of Bitcoin for illicit activities such as the purchase of drugs, weapons, and other illegal goods on websites such as Silk Road. The growing presence of Bitcoin-mining malware reinforced the increasing popularity of the currency.
Weafer continued: "As these currencies become further integrated into our global financial system, their stability and safety will require both financial monetary controls and oversight, and the security measures our industry provides."
Leveraging data from the McAfee Global Threat Intelligence (GTI) network, the McAfee Labs team identified the following trends in Q3 2013.

Peter Eisenman Assesses Architecture Today In Six Points
In his recent address to the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland, Architect Peter Eisenman broke down the current state of the practice into six headlines. What makes his observations interesting is that they apply to the current state of design in general. His fifth point addresses where we are in the style continuum.
Today I say we are in a period of late style. A period in which there is no new paradigm. Computation and the visual may produce a shift from the notational but this in itself is not a new paradigm. It is merely a tool. The question remains: What happens when one reaches the end of a historical cycle? On Late Style by Edward Said describes such a moment in culture before a shift to a new paradigm. A moment not of fate or hopelessness but one that contains a possibility of looking at a great style for the possibility of the new and the trans-formative.
Eisenman also points out that in his view today's buildings lack meaning and context to their surroundings. A point that we noticed architect Lebbeus Woods also speak to recently.
They may not necessarily look like anything or they may only resemble the processes that made them. In this case they do not relate outwardly but refer inwardly. These are icons that have little cultural meaning or reference. There is no reason to ask our more famous architects: "Why does it look like this?"
There is no answer to this question because "Why?" is the wrong question.
Why? Because the computer can produce it. One could ask these architects: "Why is this one better than that one?" Or "Which one of the crumpled paper buildings is better?" Or "Which one is the best and why?"

text: The Grace Powell wiki last edited by askwhy on 02/18/17 12:52PM View full history Brief HistoryGrace was a district attorney whom had many difficulties in her normal life as well as her career. After the seeming death of her husband, she had to take care of 3 young children. Among them her oldest son Chris (whom, unbeknownst to her was the superhero known as Darkhawk). Besides this very difficult task Grace also had problems when she had to legally fight in court against a criminal organization. This organization was bent on stopping her from reaching this goal by extortion. Darkhawk however intervened and managed for Grace to have a relatively normal life.Some years later, Grace's home was destroyed in a seeming attack. Luckily, Darkhawk managed to escape with his mother and brothers before there was any harm and Darkhawk, after the events of War of Kings, eventually stopped the assaulter.

Peru's health ministry said 89 children and five adults were affected by the food in Redondo, an Andean hamlet 300 miles north-west of Lima.
The mother of one of the dead children said they showed signs of having been poisoned.
"I think it was poison because all the kids are purple, from all parts of the school," said the mother, who was not named. "My little boy has died. My nine-year-old boy, Miguel Angel, has died."
The food had been donated by the National Food Assistance Programme, which gives food to schools in the poorest parts of the country.
Peruvian health official Miguel Zumaeta said the cause "looks like it was a carbonates intoxication, which means rat poison".
Prosecutors and health ministry officials are investigating.
In a similar case in 1999, 24 children died in a village near Cuzco in southern Peru after eating food contaminated by pesticide.

No Four For Friday today, but three EASY ones instead to keep you interested. If you have been paying attention to the gossip world in the past few days, you might have got a whiff of some of these.
This actor used to be A-list in the mid 90's but is now a straight to video kind of guy. Why you ask? Well it seems he likes taking projects that are international, and especially in Eastern European countries. The reason for this is so he and his current wife can enjoy the affections of VERY young girls who can be bought for a night in these countries.
Swimming with dolphins is not the only thing this actress did recently. Seems to be that she likes X, and when she takes it, she finds a few suitable companions and enjoys the drug and other activities that occur in hotel rooms with other consenting adults.
A friend of someone mentioned earlier today has been acting like a diva despite the fact it has been years since she could even pretend to be such. Banned from her health club for wanting to work out alone and to bring in her dog, this pseudo diva has also been trying to convince friends she has a relationship with a well known singer despite the fact that no one believes a word of it.

Growing demand for health, human services prompts partnership
Citing a changing community landscape, four organizations and three counties are partnering on a community assessment survey that today went out to more than 16,000 people.
The partners are United Way of the Capital Region, Harrisburg Regional Chamber of Commerce, West Shore Chamber of Commerce, The Foundation for Enhancing Communities and Cumberland, Dauphin and Perry counties. The survey is being facilitated by Temple University Nonprofit Evaluation, Services and Training.
"For the last five years, we have seen a steady increase in the demand for health and human service programs in the Capital Region," the survey introduction says. "We find ourselves at a crossroads as the gap between needs and resources continues to grow. That's why we formed a unique and diverse partnership to develop a broader understanding of the interconnected needs of our community."
The survey is one element of the partnership's plan, according to Tim Whelan, vice president of community impact at the United Way. The other two are review and analysis of existing data and community conversations to be conducted this fall.
The ultimate goal is identifying the most pressing needs of the Capital Region, determining priorities for available resources and establishing "dashboard" indicators to track the community's health.
Anyone who did not receive a survey invitation and would like to participate may contact Whelan.

The Arsenal takeover situation got a little more interesting on Wednesday after major shareholder David Dein, Arsenal's former vice chairman, vacated the club's board with immediate effect. Dein has been involved with the North London club for 24 years; he's also a prominent figure in European soccer politics, most recently chair of the G-14 group of Europe's major soccer clubs, a position he will now lose. A brief statement from Arsenal chairman Peter Hill-Wood said there were "irreconcilable differences between Mr. Dein and the rest of the board" that "necessitated a parting of the ways." Apparently, Dein didn't resign.
The Guardian claims "there is no question" those differences relate to American businessman Stan Kroenke's recent purchase of an 11.26 percent stake in
Arsenal. Hill-Wood on Tuesday made it clear that he's adamantly opposed to a takeover, adding that at least three of the directors, who between them own 44 percent of the club, had "no intention" of
selling to Kroenke. However, the agreement not to dispose of their shares lasts for only one year, according to the statement.
Now that Dein has left Arsenal, you can be sure Kroenke Sports
Enterprises will be inquiring about Dein's remaining stake in the club. The Guardian believes that Dein had met with Kroenke and was more sympathetic to a potential sale.

Passenger plane crash kills 21 in Kazakhstan
By Mariya Gordeyeva
KYZYL TU, Kazakhstan (Reuters) - A passenger plane crashed in thick fog near Kazakhstan's commercial capital Almaty on Tuesday and broke into pieces when it hit the ground, killing all 21 people on board.
After several hours, rescue teams recovered the plane's flight recorder, the central communications service for Kazakhstan's president said on its Twitter page.
A list published by the prosecutor-general's office showed there had been 16 passengers and five crew members on board.
The Canadian-built Bombardier Challenger CRJ-200 belonged to private Kazakh airline SCAT. It came down near the village of Kyzyl Tu about 5 km (3 miles) from Almaty's airport.
"There was no fire, no explosion. The plane just plunged to the earth," Yuri Ilyin, deputy head of the city's emergencies department, told Reuters near the scene.
Parts of the plane could be seen in the thick snow. Tractors and other heavy vehicles were being used cut paths through the snow to the wreckage but journalists were kept at a distance from the crash site.
It was the second fatal plane crash in the former Soviet republic in just a over a month.
Visibility at Kyzyl Tu was only about 20 to 30 meters (yards), and much of the area around Almaty was veiled in fog when the plane crashed at around 1 p.m. (2 a.m. ET). Continued...

Hey guys, finally picked up a WRX... in a form most of you wouldn't expect.
But I'm glad to be part of clubwrx now.
---2004 Subaru Impreza WRX Sports Wagon---
Here the beauty lies:
So, heres the story.
It runs through the family to buy wrecked cars and fix them and then possibly sell them.
So, I ended up buying this beast for $1,900 pulled out of the auction.
Clear Title - 106k Miles
A great buy IMHO.
I'm in the process of buying parts for it at the moment.
I just want to ask a few questions and discuss some things and possibly get opinions.
pictures of more detailed damage:
--Busted Intake Manifold--
Stick to a used stock manifold?
--Broken mounting tabs for PS Pump, Alternator, and AC Compressor--
the alternator broke off when it was hit
I was told it could be welded (I found some of the missing pieces of the cracked holes for the bolts) and some of them could be threaded a bit more and used like that.
The engine looks slightly tilted back. I don't know if they're designed like this, or maybe the motor mounts bent. Help please
Aftermarket parts the previous owner must have installed, if you could help me by identifying and explaining each:
-Invidia exhaust? Looks like its a whole new pipe under the car, not just the muffler.
-GT Spec rear sway bar
-Theres a short shifter on this with a momo knob. (don't know if thats stock)
-Boost Gauge, is it stock?
-Intercooler, it looks stock but the tube piping connection (sorry, dont know all my car vocab yet) doesn't look stock.
Any advice, help, or opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Citation: Ishida, B.K., Ma, J., Chan, B. 2001. A simple, rapid method for hplc analysis of lycopene isomers. Phytochemical Analysis, Vol 12, p. 194-198. Interpretive Summary: Lycopene is a major compound that is responsible for the red color in tomato fruit and is a major carotenoid in North American and European diets. It is found in highest concentration in tomatoes and tomato products. Interest in lycopene has increased rapidly since epidemiological studies implicated lycopene in lowering the risk of prostate cancer. Because research in this field is increasing, a rapid method for analyzing lycopene geometric isomers is of great interest. We describe a simple, rapid method that uses a reversed-phase HPLC with a C-30 column and a mobile phase of 40% MTBE (ethyl t-butyl ether), 50% methanol, and 10% ethyl acetate. This system separates cis and trans isomers of lycopene in about 23 min. The effects of light, temperature, and an antioxidant on lycopene isomerization were also measured.
Technical Abstract: A rapid method for the extraction, separation, and analysis of lycopene geometric isomers and beta-carotene from tomato fruit is described. Carotenoids iin tomato were separated and eluted, using a reversed-phase HPLC with a C-30 column and a mobile phase of 40% MTBE, 50% MeOH, and 10% EtOAc. This system provided sharp resolution of cis and trans isomers of lycopene within approximately 23 min. The effects of light, temperature, and the addition of an antioxidant on lycopene isomerization were also measured.

Successful Leadership in the World of Higher Education
Given the power of the media, colleges and universities are more cognizant of the threat of potential crises. However, as much as institutions can prepare, the unexpected can still happen. As a campus leader, knowing how to act quickly and effectively in the wake of a crisis can protect your students and your institution's reputation. Since relatively mundane events can quickly turn into crisis events, it is important to understand how to successfully plan for, manage, survive and recover from unexpected events such as disorderly protests, hostage situations and outbreaks of violence.Crisis Leadership in Higher Education provides critical information about proactive training and planning so you can implement effective crisis management systems in advance of a critical event. Faculty experts in crisis leadership guide participants through a variety of concepts and scenarios, examining practical challenges ranging from natural disasters to emergent infectious diseases. The program identifies communication strategies and reviews techniques and protocols that can be tailored to a wide range of institutional circumstances.
Faculty co-Chair Herman "Dutch" Leonard on Crisis Leadership in Higher Education
WHAT YOU WILL LEARNCrisis Leadership in Higher Education focuses on the strategic and operational issues that arise when preparing for, responding to and recovering from a crisis—from on-campus violence to natural disasters to controversial statements or actions by faculty and staff.
PROGRAM OVERVIEWIt is impossible to control whether a crisis will happen at your institution, but you can control the way you react to it. Organizations must improvise and innovate, usually under acute time pressure and high stress—making it critical to know how to manage, survive and recover with minimal damage. The quality of your response can have a lasting impact on institutional community, culture and reputation.
Crisis Leadership in Higher Education will help you respond to crises effectively, develop protocols and practices that minimize the potential for future occurrences and inspire confidence in the long-term success of your institution. The program draws on the complementary expertise, knowledge and experience of Harvard Kennedy School on crisis management and the Harvard Graduate School of Education on higher education, creating a powerful opportunity to engage this important topic in a way that no other institution can.
"Participants come from both large and small institutions, but they all share common interests, concerns and challenges about managing institutional crises effectively. The program inspires, motivates and empowers higher education leaders to gain more confidence, sharpen their skill, and better serve their institutions."
- James Honan, Senior Lecturer on Education, Harvard Graduate School of Education
- James Honan, Senior Lecturer on Education, Harvard Graduate School of Education
Crisis Leadership in Higher Education has been jointly designed by faculty from the Harvard Graduate School of Education (HGSE) and Harvard Kennedy School (HKS). The program draws on the complementary expertise, knowledge, and practical experience of both schools to help senior administrators plan for, respond to, and recover from a range of crises that can beset institutions of higher education. The joint HGSE/HKS faculty draws on concepts and materials presented in the Harvard Kennedy School Leadership in Crises Executive Education program (offered annually since 2002), along with other information developed to address the particular challenges faced by higher education leaders. The rich combination of HKS faculty experience in crisis management and HGSE faculty knowledge of higher education creates a powerful opportunity to engage these important issues in considerable depth.

Shailene Woodley: Cell Phone Cutie at Sundance
Keeping up with her friends back home, Shailene Woodley chatted away on her mobile phone while meandering around the 2014 Sundance Film Festival on Tuesday (January 22).
The "White Bird in a Blizzard" actress looked cute and comfortable in a grey hoodie with jeans and suede boots as she navigated the crowds in Park City, Utah while shutterbugs snapped up pics.
In her interview with The Daily Beast, Shailene talked about all the coming-of-age roles she's been privileged to play, noting that she, herself had a hard time growing up.
"I was a very late developer. I was playing with Barbie's as a 13-year-old. I went through an angsty period from 15-16 where I was like, 'I hate the world!' But I got over it. It was a normal teenage rebellion thing where I was just rebelling against anything because I could. I was just mean. It's so funny to look back on it and think, 'That was me?' A lot of sneaking out of the house and things like that."
And when asked if she remembered the first time she fell in love, Miss Woodley recalled, "I totally do. It was the dude I moved to New York with. I definitely thought I was in love with him. Looking back on that, it was so sweet. It was the day after I turned 18, and we moved to New York and I lived by myself. I learned some things from my younger self—the adventurous, kindred spirit."
Enjoy the pictures of Shailene Woodley at the 2014 Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah (January 21).

text: I have a 94 SLS with 226k on it. It ran great until 2 days ago. My wife called from 200 miles away and said when she started the car it ran rough, idled high and white smoke was pouring out of the back. I drove to get her and checked for the usual, low coolant, low oil, murky oil. All fluids were fine. I decided to try and drive it home, the smoke cleared up after a few minuets of high sppeed driving, but comes back when at slower speeds. I figured it would either make it our blow up. Well it made it and now I'm stuck fixing it. The problem is I can't tell what the problem is. I pulled and cleaned the plugs, they were fine #1 was a bit carbony. I've got good spark at all 8 cylinders, fuel pressure is good. I believe it to be an injector problem, but am at a loss on how to check for it. Can I run the engine for a short time to listen to the injectors with the beauty cover off and the bolts in place? Is there some other check I can make before buttoning it up and taking it to a mechanic? I try and do most of my own work, I've down the heads and timeserts so I'm confident it's not the head gasket. Also my Hiway MPG went from 28 to about 6 on the drive back.. Thanks for any help you can give!!

Factbox: Drugs to treat alcoholism, old and new
(Reuters) - Scientists researching drugs to treat alcoholism are building on an established range of treatments which target known areas of brain activity.
The following overview outlines treatments already available, and those more recently launched or in clinical trials, and the brain activity they target.
The three main drugs with regulator approval for treating alcohol dependence are naltrexone, acamprosate, and disulfiram. A fourth, topiramate, which is used in epilepsy, is showing some encouraging results in clinical trials for alcoholism.
* Naltrexone blocks opioid receptors that are involved in the rewarding effects of drinking and in the craving for alcohol. It reduces relapse to heavy drinking and is highly effective in some but not all patients.
* Acamprosate is an NMDA agonist and is thought to reduce symptoms of protracted withdrawal, such as insomnia, anxiety, restlessness, and dysphoria (an unpleasant or uncomfortable emotional state, such as depression, anxiety, or irritability). It may be more effective in patients with severe dependence.
* Disulfiram interferes with the degradation of alcohol, resulting in the accumulation of acetaldehyde, which, if the patient drinks alcohol produces an unpleasant reaction that includes flushing, nausea, and palpitations. Compliance can be a problem, but among patients who are highly motivated, disulfiram can be very effective.
Launched or Clinical trials phase of development for the treatment of alcoholism Continued...

If it was me, I would go for the platinum. I have about 45K on my 2011 X3 now and was considering the extended warranty. But, I'm going to pass and take my chances. The engine, mine is the inline 6, is bulletproof in my opinion. The tranny so far is perfect. I've had the inline 6 in my previous two BMW's and haven't had to touch either one. My first inline 6 had about 250K and ran like new. My second one was an M3, but I only kept it long enough to put 125K on it.
My concern with BMW's is usually focussed on the electronics and the front suspension. Everything else is extremely good, especially for the first 100K.
The OP is inquiring about extended maintenance, not warranty. Two different service products.
