I want to make a separate discussion from my Space Exploration & Astronomy one, to bring this issue to the attention of fellow Atheists here. Some of you probably already on top of it, but many are not.
James Webb Space Telescope is the most important scientific tool for Astronomy, on par with the Large Hadron Collider in terms of scientific value for all of humanity. It is currently incomplete and requires several more years of funding to be launched. It is, however, under the danger of being terminated due to budget cuts.
I urge every United States citizen to write to your House Representative and Senators, expressing your concern and voicing your stance against the termination of the JWST.
It's important to note that without U.S. nobody will and nobody could build this. It's absolutely vital for the advancement of science, of our understanding of the cosmic reality, for the spin-off technological advancements that will benefit us directly and indirectly, for the future scientists that otherwise will not be inspired or interested to even get into science.

I'm posting the below on behalf of Historic Easton. If you could help spread the word by sharing the link to this blog post, we are in need of stories about The Hill neighborhood and also donations to support an archaeological dig this summer to help us better understand and preserve the area.
Donations can be sent to Historic Easton, PO Box 1071, Easton, MD 21601. We are a 501 (c) (3) corporation, so gifts are tax deductible. Stories about the area can be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com and will be used to help illustrate life in the neighborhood over the years.
Morgan State University in partnership with Historic Easton, Inc. is embarking on a project to raise the awareness, appreciation and understanding of a currently undocumented and underrecognized aspect of the history of the African American experience in Maryland and in the Country as they seek to not only include the architectural and cultural significance of "The Hill," located in the heart of the Town of Easton, Maryland, and within the boundaries of the Easton National Register Historic District, but to Re-Honor "The Hill"; through restoration, rebirth, renewal and regeneration.
We believe "The Hill" is the oldest African American neighborhood in the country, predating what is thought of as the oldest documented African American neighborhood: "Treme" located in New Orleans, LA.
"The Hill" was first settled prior to 1790 as a neighborhood comprising free blacks and slaves. It is documented that the first African American church congregation began on the Eastern Shore of Maryland and on "The Hill" officially in 1818 (Bethel African Methodist Episcopal Church, 110 South Hanson Street, Easton, Maryland). Free blacks and slaves were already living there well before 1818 and arguably thriving and well-settled as "The Hill" was chosen by the African Methodist Episcopal Baltimore Conference of 1816 to found the first African American Church organization on the Eastern Shore of Maryland starting at "The Hill."
Whereas, "Treme" is currently documented as the oldest African American neighborhood in the country (1810 land purchased by the City of New Orleans and subdivided in 1816 to sell lots to blacks) and is nationally recognized as the birth of Jazz; the Morgan State research effort will document that "The Hill" is older, as it was settled by 1790; and it is also underrecognized as the birth of African American Methodism on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.

Test Recipes: Oven-Fried Onion Rings
Article Digest:
Good onion rings are hard to find. All too often, the onion rings that I get at diners or from the market are over-fried. The onion has gone way beyond tender and sweet and into the stage best described as flavorless and immaterial. The breading is usually so dominating that what little flavor is left in the overcooked onion requires intense concentration to identify. Even worse are the frozen supermarket onion rings that you reheat in the oven. They either come out soggy or, if the texture is right, they taste as if they were a reconstituted bread product with onion powder flavoring. When Cook's Country Magazine published a new recipe for Oven-Fried Onion Rings involving saltines and kettle-cooked potato chips, I knew I needed to try it.
Usually, home cooked onion rings are dipped in a batter made with some mixture of milk, buttermilk, cream, sour cream, and mayonnaise then tossed in seasoned bread crumbs. The onion rings are then fried or baked. (Frying onion rings always ends up with the best results, but who wants to mess with all that frying oil unless you're already planning to fry something more substantial - like a chicken?) Baked rings have a tendency to not be crispy or crunchy and somehow lack in flavor. Cook's Country solves this problem by using a rich, seasoned batter of buttermilk, flour, and cayenne with a final coating of saltines and potato chips. I've used crushed saltines as an ingredient in a variety of dishes (my favorite being meatloaf), but never used kettle-cooked chips as a cooking ingredient (I tend to eat them before I come up with an clever ideas to cook with them - once I was going to top a casserole with some kettle-cooked chips, but found that I had consumed most of the bag already so I have to use regular potato chips). I was really looking forward to the potential flavors of this onion ring recipe.
Kettle-cooked chips are usually thicker than the run-of-the-mill potato chips and, for this reason, are essential to the crunchy texture of these onion rings. I selected
Kettle-brand Krinkle Cut, Salt & Fresh Ground Pepper Flavored Kettle Chips
I pulled together the ingredients I needed: 30 saltines, 4 cups kettle-cooked potato chips (I couldn't figure out how to measure 4 cups, so I used four large handfuls), 2 medium onions (cut into large 1/2-in. [1-1/4 cm] wide rings), 1/2 cup flour, 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon pepper, 1/2 cup buttermilk, and 1 large egg.
I used a food processor to make a ground mixture of the saltines and chips. I simple dropped all the saltines and all the chips into the processing bowl and gave it ten pulses, each about one to two seconds long.
I whisked the buttermilk with 1/4 cup flour, cayenne pepper, egg, salt, and pepper to form the batter. I then placed the onions, remaining flour, batter, and crumbs next to each other so I could form an efficient dredging, dipping, and coating pipeline. Then I turned on my oven to preheat to 450°F.
I took each onion ring and dropped it into the flour to create a dry surface the batter could cling to. I tapped off the excess of flour and dropped the ring into the buttermilk batter. Using a fork, I lifted the ring out of the batter and allowed it to drip off the excess and then dropped it into the processed saltines and chips. Using my fingers I pressed the coating onto the ring and then transferred to a plate. I repeated for each ring.
I poured 3 tablespoons vegetable oil onto a half sheet pan and slipped it into the hot oven and waited for eight minutes - just enough time for the oil to produce wisps of smoke. I pulled the pan out, tilted to coat the pan evenly with oil, and then placed the onion rings onto the pan making sure none of the rings were touching. I put the pan back into the oven and allowed it to bake for 8 minutes when I pulled the pan out and flipped all the rings over. Another 8 minutes in the oven and the onion rings were done.
The rings were amazing - the best oven-fried recipe I have tried to date. The coating had just the right amount of crunchiness (although not really crispy like the deep fried variety) and was full of flavor. Best of all, the onions had been cooked just to the peak of their sweetness.

I got a bag of Kettle-brand Krinkle chips, no preservatives, no trans. fat, no cholesterol, no fried neither. it's delicious. my hunsband and I like very much. we enjoy it with no high cholesterol concern. Thanks for brought up this hand cooked and oven baked potato chips.
We love orion rings or any crispy snacks, but we are afraid of eating of any oil deep fried food. Thank for the recipe and the demonstration of home oven baked onion rings.

Post subject: Onion rings
I made these Sunday night. We liked them a lot....the onion itself was just nicely and perfectly cooked...good onion flavor. We too have been trying to eat better foods and fewer things fried. I'm not sure that using potato chips as part of the crust on these will actually qualify these as a better alternative....but, they still are likely to be better than fried ones in that regard.
I think I should have pulsed the crackers and chips a little finer. There were too many big chunks that stuck on the rings. It wasn't bad, but I'm thinking smaller would still be better. They had a nice crunch and were nicely browned where they were resting on the cookie sheet in the oil that was spread there.
Also, I only used one onion and did not have enough batter. Next time, I'll double the buttermilk, flour and egg for the batter....better to have too much than not enough. If you were actually trying to cook two onions, don't think it could have been done as written.
Anyway, thanks for posting this. I also made your pizza last week and it turned out great too! Keep up the good work.....you are becoming one of my favorite sites.

Tried this on Monday and it was bloody good. Onions still had a little crunch, none of that "Onion slipping out of the batter when you bite in" problem.
I agree with the above poster - The batter-to-onion ratio works only for medium/small onions. If you're in doubt at all, make more in advance.

Never thought that you could 'fry' stuff in the oven, maybe I'd attempt to bake other deep fried items and see how it works. Thanks for the idea.
Wish you had also put the pictures of the oiled pan and/or the onions on it, just wondered how 'deep' the oil was. Since I only have small pans, I was thinking of doing a system of putting in the second pan 4 minutes after the first so that I don't have to wait too long to turn the onions.

Sorry about that. I was a little surprised when I went through my pictures and realized I had forgotten to take a picture of the onions on the pan. Guess I got a little too eager.
The 3 Tbs. of oil on a half sheet pan (approx 18-in. x 13-in.) just coats it easily. There's not much depth to the oil level.

Post subject: Oven Fried Onion Rings--It's a Winner
Great recipe! I made these today to go with our dinner, and we were all surprised and impressed with how good they were. The coating has just the right amount of crunch, and there's no guilt about eating deep fried onion rings. The buttermilk batter really holds the coating well and has a pleasing cayenne and black pepper bite that isn't over powering. The onions were perfectly cooked and their sweetness worked well with the slight saltiness of the coating.
One note that others may be interested in--the coating is substantial, so you may not want to apply it too thickly. (I tried different variations and found a light coating tasted best in the end--although others may disagree.)
We'll never buy those those frozen "flaked and formed" rings again. Thanks for bringing this our way.

Oh, these were good. The cooking time was spot on.
I used jumbo sweet white onions, and the results were gone before I could get myself to the table.
I had to wait for the second batch!
This is definitly going into my staple file.

These are really great: flavorful, good texture, and cooked just the right amount. I also appreciate the way that they avoid the classic tunnel-of-onion problem (where the onion pulls out of the coating like a handkerchief from the sleeve of a magician), though I suppose this may have something to do with the fact that I can now eat them
as soon as they're done. Thanks for testing and posting this recipe.

Post subject: great recipe! thanks
i lacked buttermilk and avoid eggs, so made it with fat-free half-n-half curdled with a couple tablespoons of vinegar. i also lacked potato chips so i used some oven-baked rosemary hors d'oeuvres crackers instead, haha. the rosemary is an interesting variation, but they're low-fat and have no trans fat either. not sure if i'd do the rosemary variation again but the plate of 'em sure disappeared rapidly anyway
for oil, i used olive oil, which worked great and is a healthy alternative. i second the vote to make a bit more batter than is called for. the floured onion soaked it up pretty rapidly and left some areas unbattered.

Try this tip from Cooks Illustrated on their oven baked fries to get a crunchiness similar to deep frying- if you have an oil pump-aresol bottle, spray the rings after they are on the pan (or ideally both sides right after you pull the rings out of the batter) with a thin spray of oil- i prefer olive oil). Because spraying the sides evenly coats the rings with oil, you'll get crunchier rings than if you had just laid them down on a thin layer of oil.
Nonstick spray also does the trick in case there are people that prefer not to use any oil at all. (though not as well)

Based on my recent drives, I can offer these cautionary notes:
* At least as of Oct. 15, South Euclid Avenue in Ontario from a street I can't remember to Riverside Drive is a hell ride. That was the day I had a lunch date at Taylor's Cafe and found traffic slowed to a standstill, three lanes funneled into one, for massive reconstruction and installation of a new traffic signal. Maybe it's cleared up now — I don't dare drive back down there to check.
* In Montclair, Central Avenue is in pieces from the northern city limits to the 10 Freeway, near Montclair Plaza. Better they're doing this work now than during Christmas shopping, but that doesn't make me want to drive it.
* Similarly, Monte Vista Avenue near Montclair Plaza also has lanes narrowed and pavement torn out, although not as drastically.
Better to just avoid Montclair until further notice. Will you miss it? If you live in Montclair, or you really need new clothes at the mall, use your best judgment.
* East Holt Boulevard at Euclid Avenue in Ontario remains a pit of despair, five lanes squeezed into two. Avoid at all costs.
This traffic advisory has been brought to you by the forces of change.
Any other torn-up streets to avoid, readers?

British Critics Ravage 'Diana'; 'Wesley Snipes In A Blonde Wig Would Be More Convincing'
Posted by imoviezone in Celebrity News on June 14, 2014
The highly anticipated royal biopic Diana starring Naomi Watts has come under fire from movie critics in Britain, who have branded the motion picture "fabulously awful," "tedious" and "cheap."
The 44 year-old actress takes on the title role of Diana, Princess of Wales in the film, which premiered in the on Thursday night and portrays the late royal in the last years of her life before her death in a car crash in Paris, France in 1997.
Nonetheless, the movie has received a slew of scathing reviews from Britain's critics in the aftermath of the premiere, with many questioning the movie's historical accuracy and even slamming the story as a "soap opera" re-imagining of the princess' life.
Peter Bradshaw of The Guardian gave Diana just one star out of a possible five and heavily criticized the film, writing, "Poor Princess Diana. I hesitate to use the term 'car crash cinema'. But the awful truth is that, 16 years after that terrible day in 1997, she has died another awful death… The movie isn't so much Mills & Boon as a horrendous Fifty Shades of Grey with the S&M sex taken out – and replaced with paparazzi intrusion and misunderstood charity work… The moment anyone, anyone at all, opens their mouth we are in TV-movie-land, soap-land."
The Daily Telegraph's David Gritten concurs, singling out the movie's references to the Paris car crash as a "redundant piece of lurid sensationalism," adding of the film, "What's the point of Diana? It's hardly fascinating. It doesn't offer new facts about the Princess's life. And it certainly doesn't explain her complexity or contradictions. That would take a different, better film altogether."
David Edwards of the Daily Mirror adds, "Diana can only be described as a fabulously awful film. The Queen of Hearts has been recast as a sad-sack singleton that even Bridget Jones would cross the street to avoid… The film's a cheap and cheerless effort… Director Oliver Hirschbiegel… should know better… Despite a peroxide hair-job, (Watts) looks, sounds and acts nothing like the Princess of Wales. Wesley Snipes in a blonde wig would be more convincing."
Christopher Tookey of the Daily Mail also gave the film just one star out of five, branding it "tedious", "slow" and "terribly, terribly dull".
The film has also been criticized by the princess' former lover Dr. Hasnat Khan, who is played by Lost star Naveen Andrews onscreen.
He insists the story is based on "hypotheses and gossip" and is "completely wrong."

What really went wrong with the project? Here is the history, according to the technical lead:
"We pitched the client an economy car, and they came back and asked us to build a stealth fighter in the same time frame. I said it was impossible, but my manager said to try anyway. And now here we are, with about 10 percent of the stealth fighter completed instead of 100 percent of the economy car."
That eyewitness account is a lot more useful than a color code, right? Based on this, it looks like the project collapsed in the first month, during the design phase.
Yet, the project plan showed the design phase as successfully completed, and the earned value system had the project green for months afterward.
It sounds like the project manager should have called the design phase a failure and sent everyone back to the drawing board.
But before we point the finger, let's think about what would have happened.
The project would have turned red barely three weeks out of the gate. It would have been the quickest trip to the woodshed in project management history.
This raises a very interesting possibility. We've already established that the project manager cheated the earned value system to make his project look better.
But did the earned value system actually encourage the PM to make bad decisions?
Could a simple scoring system designed to track project performance actually contribute to a major project failure?
Speed vs. Quality
Let's say that we have two project managers, Jack and Jill. They are both experienced, but Jack has a tendency to cut corners on tasks and ignore potential problems, while Jill is extremely cautious and is very careful to check work quality and avoid risk. Who is the better project manager?
According to our earned value management scoring system, Jack is better.
He completes his tasks more quickly and at a lower cost. The system ignores the fact that Jill's team consistently delivers higher quality work.
It's not that earned value promotes poor qualityit is just blind to quality.
From the perspective of earned value, quality on all tasks and all projects is equal and absolute.
When a task is marked complete, the system assumes it will meet or exceed the required level of quality for the project.
This assumption is necessary in order for the earned value metrics to be used as common yardsticks.
However, it is obvious that there's a relationship between cost, schedule and quality. We've all seen co-workers rush through tasks and cut corners in order to meet a deadline.
As a rule, rushed work is sloppy work. The problem is that earned value rewards the rush.
As project managers start to understand the system, they soon realize that they don't get any points for "extra" quality.
They get credit for racing through tasks as quickly as possible, meeting only the minimum accepted level of quality. Any extra time spent on any single task threatens their earned-value metrics.
The conflict between our technical lead and the project manager now seems predictable.
The project manager's evaluation depended on speed, but the technical lead was evaluated on design quality.
And because the project manager was the one with the power to decide when the task was complete and to move on, speed won over quality.
How this conflict is resolved in other organizations that rely on earned value depends upon the quality control procedures the organization has in place.
In the above case, an independent design review could have saved the project by sending it back to the drawing board right away.

Like many Americans, President Obama and presumptive GOP nominee Mitt Romney rang in the Fourth of July with parades, picnics and fireworks.
But that doesn't mean the election was far from their minds.
Romney, who is vacationing with his family in Wolfeboro, N.H., walked with a crowd of supporters with the banner, "New Hampshire Stands With Mitt." He also delivered a speech from the back of a pickup truck to voters.
Obama also hugged and high-fived supporters. After presiding over a naturalization ceremony for active service members — and renewing his election year call for immigration reform — he and the First Lady hosted their third annual Independence Day picnic for service members and their families on the South Lawn.

UH employees nominated for the 2006 Governor's Awards for Distinguished State ServiceUniversity of Hawaiʻi
Arlene Abiang, (808) 956-5637
External Affairs & University Relations
HONOLULU — The University of Hawaiʻi has selected its employee, manager and team nominees for the 2006 Governor's Awards for Distinguished State Service. They will compete with employees from other government agencies for statewide honors to be announced at an awards ceremony on Wednesday, October 4, at the State Capitol Auditorium.
Charles Nelson, agricultural equipment development working supervisor in the molecular biosciences and bioengineering (MBBE) department at UH Mānoa, is the university's representative for Employee of the Year. Richard Dubanoski, dean of the College of Social Sciences at UH Mānoa, was nominated for Manager of the Year. The Career Access Project Team consisting of Paul Sakamoto, IT specialist, Office of the VP for Community Colleges; Erin Loo, job placement counselor, Employment Training Center; and Sandy Hoshino, job developer, Leeward Community College, were nominated for the Team Excellence Award of Merit.
Nelson was selected to represent UH as Employee of the Year for designing and building devices that make research, extension and instruction projects possible. His hard work and creativity have developed many technologies that benefit Hawaiʻi's people and environment, such as disinfestations machines that help growers combat invasive pests and biological treatment systems that clean contaminated dairy wastewater at the UH livestock farm and at a commercial Oʻahu dairy. He is committed to lifelong learning and applies his knowledge and skills to developing MBBE's Web site, setting up the department's server, maintaining the student computer lab, and training students to use the shop's machine equipment safely.
Dubanoski was selected to represent UH as Manager of the Year for his ability to lead a large and diverse group of 135 faculty members in 11 departments. His energy and creativity in developing and supporting the community scholar-in-residence program, legislator-in-residence program, public policy center, Mānoa Forum and other initiatives have supported the college's educational mission and helped connect the university more closely to the community. Dubanoski's transparent budget process, his open and inclusive governance style and the countless acts of support for individual faculty and staff have helped create an administrative environment in which many faculty, staff and students have thrived.
UH has nominated the Career Access Project Team of Sakamoto, Loo and Hoshino for their design and development of Career Access, a web-based job preparation program. The state-of-the-art, interactive system can be easily adapted for use by faculty members, counselors, staff and students in a variety of settings. The site is comprised of five tutorials that cover job applications, resumes, cover letters, interviews and job search.
The State seeks nominations for the annual Governor's Awards for Distinguished State Service each year. They are part of the State's employee recognition and incentive program administered by the Department of Human Resources Development to honor executive branch employees who exemplify the highest standards of public service and dedication to serving the people of Hawaii.
About the University of Hawaiʻi
Established in 1907 and fully accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges, the University of Hawaiʻi is the state's sole public system of higher education. The UH System provides an array of undergraduate, graduate, and professional degrees and community programs on 10 campuses and through educational, training, and research centers across the state.

LUSBY, Md. (AP) — An unreleased Government Accountability Office report says the Calvert Cliffs nuclear power plant in Lusby had 140 lower-level safety violations between 2000 and 2012.
The report, obtained by The Associated Press, lists the violations of nuclear power plants across the country.
Lower-level violations identified by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission pose very low risk, while upper-level violations range from low to high safety significance.
The Calvert Cliffs plant had seven higher-level violations during the same time period.

Liverpool eye Huntelaar swoop
Getting a bit more serious now.Liverpool are plotting to end their striker crisis by signing Dutch hot-shot Klaas-Jan Huntelaar from Schalke when the January transfer window opens, according to ESPNsources.
[background=transparent][/background][background=transparent][background=transparent]Klaas-Jan Huntelaar: Bound for England?[/background][/background]
Anfield chiefs believe they could secure the services of 29-year-old striker in a cut-price £6 million, with manager Brendan Rodgers desperate to bolster his striking options after his side missed a host of chances once again in their 1-1 draw against Newcastle on Sunday.
Huntelaar has already scored eight goals for Schalke this season, backing up his impressive haul of 44 goals for club and country last term, and while a move for the former AC Milan striker would divert away from Liverpool's bid to sign youthful performers, his value price-tag and ability to make an instant impact in the Premier League should persuade the club's American owners to sanction the deal.
Liverpool continue to be linked with a move for Arsenal contract rebel Theo Walcott, but ESPN sources suggest the inflated wage demands of the England attacking starlet may scupper any proposed move to Anfield.

Okay, try saying that 10 times fast. Spotted Sandpipers, while spotted in their breeding plumage, do not have spots in winter or when they are juveniles. Juveniles can be separated from winter plumaged birds by the scaling and barring on their upperparts, which nonbreeding adults do not have. Right around now, we start to see juveniles so look out for them; I recently found this juvenile in Votier's Flats in Fish Creek Provincial Park.

Special Greases
Wheel bearingsIn Racing wheel bearings tend to run close to their load limits while exposed to high temperatures from the braking systems and drive shaft. Rally and off-road cars may also expose the bearings to dirty or moist environments. Therefore the grease must tolerate high contact pressures and temperatures and have some capability to exclude dirt and water. One good example of a racing wheel bearing grease is the SKF LGHP2 or the SKF LGWA2.
Clutch release bearingsClutch release bearings are often exposed to high temperatures, however mostly the loads are low. Only when the clutch is opened is the bearing carrying a significant load. Therefore the bearing requires grease which can withstand high temperatures, protect the rolling elements from sliding under low load conditions and high speed gradients. PTFE based greases are commonly used in these circumstances. One such grease is the SKF LGET2.
Sometimes the clutch will work in the opposite way loading the bearing to keep the clutch open and unloading when the clutch closes. In this case as the bearing is carrying load most of the time a PTFE grease is no longer suitable. Please contact SKF Racing for advice in this case.

Starlite Limousines and the individual driver (6 trips) were easy to work with, timely and courteous.
Frank was punctual and I had a very comfortable trip to San Diego City. Thank you!
We used Starlite Transportations for my daughters homecoming dance and they made the evening extra special for seven very excited teenagers. I wasn't there, but heard from her that the driver was very professional and accommodating, the limo beautiful and had all the necessary amenities (non-alcoholic drinks and most importantly, chargers for their phones!). We discussed several stops along the way ahead of time and as a parent I felt confident that they were well-taken care of. Thank you for a wonderful, memorable night.
Starlite limousines drivers are courteous, punctual and professional. Highly recommend them for you party bus or limo bookings!
Frank made the night! He was friendly courteous and very hospitable. He will be my goto guy for any and all future transportation needs. Thanks frank for making our evening that much more memorable!
We could not have asked for a better experience. the driver was wonderful!
Great service! Driver was prompt, patient and professional. A+ Service
We arrived on a Sunday morning at the cruise ship terminal. I have never made limo arrangements to be picked up at a pier and this was my first time in San Diego. I was very pleased. The drive was on time. The car was clean. Could not have asked for better service. I would recommend Starlite anytime. They are a first class operation from the view of my first experience in San Diego.
Great service.
We have used Starlite Limo service in San Diego, Ca at least three times going to and from the airport. We were very happy with their professionalism, always on time, courteous and polite. You should try them. You will be glad you did. David Ruff Sr San Diego, Ca
Very happy...used for a 30th birthday celebration to Temecula
Great service. Drivers very professional, dependable, on-time and courteous, with luxury vehicles. Thanks Frank.
Starlite Transportation is paying people to give the FAKE reviews. BEWARE!
The pickup at 4:30 AM was great, arrived on time and was delivered to the airport with plenty of time to spare. I had been gone about 1 1/2 weeks and received a call at 1:30 AM (time zone I was in was 3 hrs ahead of San Diego) telling me that they were on way to airport to pick me up. Called back and said not arriving back to San Diego for several days and would arrive at San Diego at 10:30 AM on a Sunday. So, on the day I arrived back in San Diego received a call saying driver was a little late in picking me up and was almost at my house???? Told him airport and he did come back. I waited only a short time and the driver arrived was very sorry and polite and he got me home with no incidents. So I would say the drivers are nice but there seems to be a problem with dispatch. I might use them again and hope that they do not mess up the ride to the airport.
I am very please with Starlite transportation! The driver was friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this service. I used Starlite for transportation to the airport multiple times.
Great experience working with Starlite Transportation. The listen to the customers and their prices are fair. I recommend them.
They have been taking my wife to business trips within the state. She is very happy to have you. You are always on time and you maintain high quality of services. You are great.
We made a great deal with them to pick us from the airport to our hotel. They are professionals and never waste time. They are ussually on time.
I'd like to take this opportunity to thank Starlite Transportation for their professionalism in their duty when I used their services last month. I recommend them.
Beautiful services they offer. When we were moving from San Diego to the country side, they came to our heed. They came, packed all items so well and we felt we were at safety to let them work with us. They are cool. I rate them 10/10.
what I loved about them is their good language with their customers to make them stick and never make a thought of going anywhere else. they are very flexible if you encounter a difficulty to make you move or change plans. I recommended them highly.
Great services, perfect timing, they know what they are doing, I like them and will always have them as my preference. They accepted my call, gave me their time, they are very cool. They beat deadline. I recommend them.
The best team i have ever worked with. Very professional,on time,affordable prices and no disappointments. highly recommend them.
The only guy to give me a good deal out of the entire San Diego district. New to the area, and had a feeling he would hook it up. Thank you so much, you made my 22 birthday a memorable one!
We always use this company and I have never written a review. Very easy to book online and the answers are always prompt. Drivers are professional and know their business. Cars are always very nice and everything always works!!!
Their service is A++. I love the fact they send an email upon confirming your reservation. They call to remind you the day before of the service. And the day of they email you the drivers info. and receipt after drop-off. They always arrive early.
The most professional and timely service i ever experienced booking a limo service in San Diego!
Great service, always reliable!
Great driver, on time, professional, courteous n friendly.
Great service
Amazing Company
Starlite is the best of the best. Not sure how their prices compare, but because of the service, I've never wanted to use others. You will not find better service, professional and courteous drivers, and punctuality.
Stop looking - you found the right spot!
We hired starlight to drive our group of 40 from our office near Kearny Mesa to the Harbor for a jet boat ride and back. Our driver, Marge, called in advance, showed up early, dropped us off and when we were done, we sent her a text and she arrived in 5 mins to pick us up. We called around, pricing was in line with the market, bus was clean and neat. We will absolutely call them again the next time we have transportation needs. They are top notch!!
Reservation Process Very Easy
I am not from the area and was looking for a reliable company to get me from the cruise terminal to the airport quickly as my connections are close. When I spoke with Frank I felt assured that the limo will be at the cruise terminal as promised. I'll give a final review after May 7th when we arrive in San Diego and hopefully make our flight on time.
Starlight Limo service was on time, Very professional driver and friendly service
High Quality Limo, Dirver and Service
I have had a good amount of experience with renting limos for all different occasions but never found any service 'complete'. They were always lacking in some area and normally it was huge. Not the case with Starlite Limousines. I spoke with one of the owners on several occasions about what would be right for my event and never did i feel I was being sold something I really didn't need. The quality of the limo was something important to me and he reassured me the vehicle was a 2014 model and had been converted in 2015. When it arrived it still smelled a little like new materials. The driver was dressed in a suite and was very accommodating but professional, constantly reminding me that he was there to make sure we had a great time. The limo was stalked with beer water and ice as requested and the driver even had a cooler up front for refills of anything if we needed it. We had an amazing time an all 12 people said they had never experienced a limo service as good as this one. Do yourself a favor and go with Starlight Limousines.
Exceeded my expectations!
A group of 10 of us were going on a cruise out of Long Beach, we were picked up at my home at the exact time as promised. The driver was very friendly, loaded all of our bags and drove us safely to the cruise terminal. When we returned from our cruise he was waiting for us patiently and again loaded all of our bags with a smile and returned us safely back to my home. I would highly recommend them.
Outstanding Service
I wouldn't hesitate recommending Starlite Limousine to a friend. They provide truly outstanding service. The driver picked up my relatives in LA. He was on time, very professional, and made their drive to Carlsbad a hassle free and enjoyable experience.

In the medical device industry, it is often assumed that groundbreaking product designs involve substantial investments in R&D and technology. That's not necessarily the case, says Stacey Chang, associate partner and director of IDEO's health and wellness practice.
Innovation has more to do with recognizing "what the real need is" rather than deploying new sets of technologies. "Even when you are designing with your existing technology you can actually subtly shift the way you design in order to address the need better," he says.
Most device companies do traditional market research, Chang says. For instance, "they do time-and-motion studies, talk to key opinion leaders to see what their thoughts are," he explains. But there are a lot of different ways you can get at new ideas that don't involve those traditional methods. "Key opinion leaders (KOLs) aren't always the best people to talk with because generally they are the most practiced and the most capable; the issues that your average practitioner has, they don't necessarily have," Chang explains. "You are not actually solving the needs of the population you are going to sell to if you are only deriving your product specs from the KOLs."
Device companies also should make sure they thoroughly consider the "human need" of the end user, Chang advises. "The way most medical device companies go about determining specs is actually pretty rigid and defined by regulatory constraints. Some device companies don't [allow] a lot of time to focus on the human need, which is not always captured in the specs."
Chang acknowledges the substantial differences in product development in the medical device space and the broader technology industry. "The consumer space, which includes products like the iPhone, is all about making the consumer happy. In healthcare, the most important thing might be saving the patient's life," he says. "That being said, when you design a product well, it makes it easier for the physician not to make a mistake, which is a big deal."
Another barrier to innovation in the medical device environment is the lure of the consumer space for startups. "Because there are so many hurdles: regulatory, the difficulties of running trials, and so forth, it really raises the hurdles for entrepreneurs," Chang says. "If I am an entrepreneur and I want to do something really creative, I could move over to the consumer space, where there are low hurdles and the chances for success are high, and I'll know I'll spend less time spinning through all of the challenges of patent and regulatory kind of stuff,"
Chang muses that a consortium of people might be able to get together to come up with a set of tools that makes it as easy to innovate in the healthcare space as it is in the consumer space. "How do we get the broader ecosystem to lower those barriers so it is equally enticing to save a life as it is to make a cool iPhone app?" Chang asks. "Healthcare is where a lot of money is going to be spent in the next ten years and I think it is not a matter of if but when someone figures out how to develop those platforms. You look at companies like Qualcomm Life, Alere Connect, those are some of the people who are thinking about building platforms with which you can at least do digital innovation in healthcare," he says. "I think we have to figure how we can extend that notion much more broadly across the entire healthcare space including devices, services, protocols, and things like that so the risk profile is a lot lower."

Has anyone you know lost control of their online accounts? Cases like the "Mugged in London" scam demonstrate why it's important to take steps to help secure your activities online. If you reuse the same password on multiple sites and one of those sites gets hacked, or your password was stolen through a phishing scam, it can be used to access some of your most closely-held information.
We continually strive to develop solutions to prevent security breaches like these. So last year, we developed an advanced opt-in security feature for Google Accounts called 2-step verification. This feature makes your Google Account (and thereby also your AdWords account) significantly more secure by helping to verify that you're the real owner of your account. It does this by requiring two independent factors for authentication, much like you might see on your banking website: your password, plus a code obtained using your phone.
To make your AdWords account more secure, you can apply this 2-step verification to your Google account. While this is an extra step, it's one that significantly improves the security of your AdWords account because it requires the powerful combination of both something you know—your username and password—and something that only you should have—your phone.
Learn more about 2-step verification and get started at our Help Center. And for more about staying safe online, see our ongoing security blog series or visit http://www.staysafeonline.org/. Be safe!

Scarlett Johansson will rock a skintight superhero suit in this weekend's "Iron Man 2" – and she has the attitude to go with it.
"This is a no-b***s*** character," the star told the Summer 2010 issue of V Magazine of her role as the Black Widow. "It's not that she's non-feeling, she just gets the job done. She's part of something bigger, and she knows it. She's this crazy badass, and she has no time for f***ing around."
The tough-as-nails role was one the actress, and wife of fellow big screen star Ryan Reynolds, told the mag fits with her new-found maturity.
"I'm 25, and for some time I've played these characters who are kind of figuring it out, transforming from young girls to young women," she said. "I don't feel like a girl anymore. And I feel like my life and career are on a different path than they had been. There's a lot of road behind me."
She also had praise for "Iron Man 2" director Jon Favreau, approving of his casting on the project – which included fresh franchise faces Mickey Rourke, Sam Rockwell and Don Cheadle as well as herself.
"I think Jon just takes people that he really respects and squeezes them into superhero costumes," she laughed.
"Iron Man 2" is due in theaters today.

25-Apr-2002 -- 43N001W is on the commune of LARRAU in the Pyrénées Atlantique, close to the road to Spain through the port of Larrau, at the level of the pass of Erroymendi.
The pic of Orhy, 2017 meters high, is not far, and in this end of april the road to Spain is shown as closed due to the snow !
Any way I try,...and the way is clear.
I stop the car in a hairpin bend of the D28 at the altitude of 1260 meters (N43°00.011 W000° 59.315), only 930 meters from the confluence point.
The walk to the point is quite easy, passing close to horses, through meadows or under small trees.
A steep ascent brings, after 25 minutes walk, to the point whose height is 1361 meters.
The view is bright and shows valleys and mountains several kilometers away towards the north and col Bagargui.

Brenna's Minnie pumpkin all carved out :-) Dustin bought me a new cutting tool from Wal-Mart (at the bargin price on $1). I think she turned out pretty awesome. Now the only problem is that I don't want to set them outside - I think they maybe my table centerpieces for the month, lol.

Brenna's Minnie pumpkin all carved out :-) Dustin bought me a new cutting tool from Wal-Mart (at the bargin price on $1). I think she turned out pretty awesome. Now the only problem is that I don't want to set them outside - I think they maybe my table centerpieces for the month, lol.
Our project from this afternoon (below). Can you tell we are loving Disney this Halloween (there are some great ideas right now on http://family.go.com/disney/disney-halloween-crafts-and-recipes-photo-gallery-pg/ - 31 ideas to be exact, wonder how many we might try before Halloween??). Brenna was a great help with these - she did great rolling the dough (it is a salt and flour dough - not for eating, but in hindsight, I wish I would have made them edible and done my white moulding chocolate - but then again, I have been eating enough sweets lately...)
We made 6 of the Mickey pumpkins - Brenna painted two of them - I think she would give the project a thumbs up :-) (Although I ignored the directions to wear gloves when mixing in the food coloring - oops - I know have some very nice pink stained hands, lol).
I like the one that Brenna painted in the front - it looks like Mickey has hair to me :-)
Hello All!!!
Hope all is well out there! Things are going o.k. here - Dustin has a cold coming on - hopefully Brenna and I won't get it and it won't be terrible for Dustin.
We made some baked flour and salt Mickey pumpkins today (not edible). They were a fun time and I think they look pretty close to the inspiration ones. Brenna wanted to make tiny balls, but she got the idea of the bigger ones when I worked with her on them. (although we made the orange pumpkins first and then she was a little confused on the size for the black ears, but she caught on pretty well). Brenna even did pretty well putting the toothpicks in the ears - I think I should have put a little black paint on the top of the sticks, but maybe if we do this project again we will have it all figured out (although if we do it again - I may go for edible ones, lol). Now, we will just have to monitor Justice and make sure that he doesn't eat them (I'm sure the paint we used (and the toothpicks) wouldn't be good to eat). Brenna painted two of the pumpkins when they cooled - she actually did a pretty good job painting in the lines, but continued painting more on the front after she painted in the lines first (guess I should have been handing them to her and moving them quicker, lol). But, I think they all look cute.
I was impressed at Wal-Mart today that someone thought all my rain gear looked fashionable :-) (I think it is very fashionable - but I'm biased). Whoever that person is - thank you for brightening my day :-)
Well, I need to get Brenna to bed!
Take Care!

BOSTON, Dec. 23 (UPI) -- Former Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney's eldest son Tagg said his father "wanted to be president less than anyone I've met in my life."
The Boston Globe reported Sunday that Tagg Romney wanted to focus on a list of 12 people his father had helped in having a professional documentary made that would have shown his father's humanitarian side, but Stuart Stevens, Romney's strategist, wanted instead to focus on showing how President Barack Obama's economic policies were not working.
"He had no desire to ... run. If he could have found someone else to take his place ... he would have been ecstatic to step aside. He is a very private person who loves his family deeply and wants to be with them. He has deep faith in God and he loves his country, but he doesn't love the attention," said Tagg Romney, who the Boston Globe said worked with his mother to convince Mitt Romney to run for president.
National GOP officials said they intend to "reverse engineer" the Romney campaign to see what went wrong.
They said it was the Romney team's failure, until too late, to try to convince voters of Romney's leadership abilities and personal qualities, which allowed the Obama campaign to successfully paint Romney as uncaring about average people.
The Globe said Romney's campaign made political, strategic and financial errors that essentially assured Obama's victory.
