Working with the New Forest and South Downs National Park Authorities, Hampshire County Council is proposing to set up a formal agreement between all the partners to take forward a programme of initiatives to reduce the impact of traffic in both National Parks.
Funded by a share of a £3.8 million grant from the Department for Transport's Local Sustainable Transport Fund, the programme aims to develop sustainable transport programmes including cutting traffic congestion and lowering carbon emissions.
This will be achieved through a combination of infrastructure improvements, together with the promotion of public transport, walking and cycling. Work will include creating cycle and walking routes to stations, upgrading bus and rail facilities and schemes to increase safety for pedestrians, cyclists and horse riders.
In addition a wide range of other improvements are under consideration for the remainder of the programme, such as:
Councillor Mel Kendal, Deputy Leader and Executive Member for Environment and Transport at Hampshire County Council, said:
"While the County Council is the lead authority for this programme, we will be working in partnership with both the National Park Authorities and neighbouring councils, to develop and implement schemes. The programme aims to reduce the number of vehicles travelling in the National Park areas as well as encouraging more people to use public transport. Hopefully people will get more out of their visit by walking or cycling around these unique and beautiful areas of countryside.
"As part of this work we also want to identify new and innovative ways of reducing the impact of traffic on narrow, rural routes across the New Forest and South Downs areas, so we will be looking at a number of potential sites under this transport objective and working with communities to seek and explore local views."
Julian Johnson, Chairman of the New Forest National Park Authority, said:
"This is a once-in-a-generation funding opportunity. We now have a real chance to make a difference to sustainable transport in the New Forest for the people who live and visit here. We are looking forward to working with communities and organisations to explore ways of reducing the impact of traffic and improvement of transport facilities."
Barry Lipscomb, the South Downs National Park Authority Lead Member for Transport said:
"As the closest National Park to London in the most populous part of the country, it's vital that we enable more people to use public and sustainable transport to get to, and around, the beautiful South Downs National Park. This partnership and funding means we can join up with the local transport authorities to promote and support buses, trains, walking and cycling to both our most welcome visitors and the people who live here."

Are you being a creep? If you're a digital marketer working with mobile then unless you've got your privacy plans sussed there's a good chance that your customers will think you are.
As awareness of location data use increases (alongside the revelation that data might not be as anonymous as previously thought), consumers are becoming more and more wary about being tracked over their phones and other mobile devices. They also want to be reassured that any personal and financial data they input will be kept safely and securely.
Research earlier this year found that 66% of smartphone users are more concerned about their privacy on their phones than they were a year ago, while 79% avoid using apps that they don't believe protect their privacy online.
Regulators are also taking a stand on mobile creeps. The European Union's privacy watchdogs have warned that users "must be in control of their own personal data" and those involved in developing mobile apps have a responsibility "to create a safe, secure and data-protection-compliant app environment".
Certain data protection bodies, who are authorised by their national laws to take action, can even impose fines on organisations that they believe are not fulfilling their mobile privacy responsibilities.
Faced with this consumer and regulatory climate, how can you avoid being a mobile privacy creep?

The rise of smartphones and tablets has ushered in a huge shift in how consumers engage with brands.
These changes have fundamentally altered the path to purchase, which used to be a linear process, into a much broader mix of browsing and discovery, with social recommendations and easier access to information driving the online buying process.
Most notably, this shift is changing the way IT and Marketing, two divisions that have often worked in silos, must operate in response.
Underscoring the importance of these changes, Gartner recently reported that future ecommerce success depends on improving the customer experience, with top CIOs now ranking it as the largest opportunity to implement technology in driving business innovation.

Email is alive and kicking. Worldwide there are almost four times more email accounts (4.4bn) than the number of users on Facebook (1 bn) and Twitter (250m) users combined.
Email is also a more active medium than Facebook and Twitter, generating 8.3 times as much messages a day (45bn emails against 5,2bn Facebook updates/likes and 175m tweets a day), and that's not counting spam emails.
Or to summarise: if you want to reach a large audience, email marketing is a valuable asset that cannot be ignored.
Here are three essential email marketing tips...

Now that mobile access is essentially ubiquitous, the leading ecommerce sites have incorporated responsive website design to ensure a seamless user experience between devices.
However, the conversion rates on mobile continue to lag significantly, and now we are left to deliver on this next frontier of mobile.

A new TNS study across 43 countries suggests that 21% of shoppers use smartphones in store to 'showroom', 43% read reviews, 31% compare prices and 25% seek advice before they buy from friends and family.
This phenomenon has put the fear of God into many within the retail industry, woken businesses up to the link between the high street and internet and made retailers aware that they are not ready to service this reality.
We've seen Jessops and HMV go into administration in recent months and Best Buy shrink. The culprit? Supposedly showrooming.

You're probably growing tired of the phrase 'responsive design', but it isn't one of those overly-hyped buzz phrases that you can ignore, and it's not going to go away anytime soon.
The reality is that many sites – ours included – still need to figure out how to deliver a consistent user experience that adapts to devices with different screen sizes.
So, I thought I'd compile a few resources, and some lovely tools, to help you (and me) to go down the responsive design route.

Online advertisers are generally seeing more sales coming through from desktops and laptops than mobile phones. But that's not to say mobile clicks are not valuable.
Instead, advertisers need to use alternative ways to measure the contribution of mobile devices to overall paid search programme goals.

As familiar names like HMV and Blockbuster disappear from the High Street, web traffic can be expected to grow as a result.
However, the increasing numbers of data aggregators and tracking tags being placed on websites are leading to slower loading pages, while advances in technology designed to save people time have made us less tolerant of waiting.
In 2006, the average web user expected pages to load in four seconds or less. By 2010, that expectation had become two seconds or less.

Econsultancy has been discussing digital excellence on an ongoing basis for a while now, as digital concepts increasingly permeates business operations, capabilities and structures.
Ahead of ExactTarget's Connect tour, where Econsultancy is a media partner, I managed to catch up with one of the key members of their APAC operations, Regional Marketing Manager, Ryan Bonnici, to get his thoughts on the topic, as well as the peripheral issues of digital innovation, data and technology.

Loyalty schemes are big business. You only have to look at Tesco's Clubcard, Boots Advantage and Nectar points to see how effective they are at drawing consumers in and creating brand loyalty on the high street.
But looking around the globe traditional loyalty models are being taken on by the mobile revolution. Brands using their mobile channel to target engaged consumers and deliver smarter, personalised deals are giving traditional routes a run for their money.
Fiddling about with coupons and cut-out offers at the till will soon be a thing of the past. Brands that have harnessed marketing to mobile, enhanced by mobile payment solutions, will smooth the way when it comes to redeeming offers at the point of paying.

Thinking about going to see Daniel Tosh when he comes to DC in June. Anyone go to any of his previous tours? Was it worth the $90 a ticket? I love a good standup show.
Thinking about going to see Daniel Tosh when he comes to DC in June. Anyone go to any of his previous tours? Was it worth the $90 a ticket? I love a good standup show.
$90????????? Hell no!!!!!!!
Friendship isn't about whom you have known the longest... It's about who came and never left your side.
I like him, but 90 bucks a ticket is friggin crazy
90 bucks seems like a ton of cake to see a guy tell jokes for an hour and 10 minutes.
He's funny, don't get me wrong. I just don't think he's 90 dollar funny.
Have seen the tour but Mrs. Lemmy and I are thinking about going. Our only problem is he isn't hitting up anywhere local so we'll have to travel a bit (not too bad). $90 isn't an issue......we are basically hermits and lots of people blow through that much, easily, going out on any given weekend so we have no issue justifying.
he's on tv every fucking day so i dont feel the need to give him $90.
I hate being bipolar, its awesome.
is he gay, gotta be right?
I hate being bipolar, its awesome.
jesus, his ex girlfriend is smoking hot
is this some shitty music that only Kanye would like?
Tosh = homosexual icon; his events are akin to Lady Ga Ga, Cyndi Lauper.... that womens' golf tournament in Palm Springs
I saw him live last year - I'd rather go see someone for 1/3 the price at a local club.
BUT, Local to me is NYC, so any night at the comedy cellar I can run into LouisCK, Attell, Lange, Schumer, etc ....
Listen live @ http://www.nickandartie.com/
saw him in Ft. lauderdale a couple of years ago. he was funny. but tried too hard to be over the top edgy
I saw him two years ago. Tell him to shove his ninety bucks up his ass.

The participants were then asked to rate on a scale of 1-7 how much they enjoyed receiving or donating the money and how satisfied they were.
Approximately 40 percent chose to donate to charity. There was no difference in happiness between those who gave to charity and those who didn't.
But participants who were given $3 to spend on themselves were happier than those in the choice group and happier than those forced to donate to charity.
"People do enjoy receiving a lot," Berman says. "They enjoy it particularly because they have no choice."
The second study
In a following study, Berman and Small asked three groups to make a choice. One group had to choose between two gift cards to themselves, the other group had to choose between two gift cards for charity and the third had to choose between giving to themselves and giving to charity.
Again, approximately 40 percent of participants in the choice group gave to charity, and neither choice resulted in more satisfaction. The group that reported being the happiest was the group that had to decide between the two gift cards.
The third study
In the last study, the researchers asked participants their preference, whether they would like to donate to charity or keep the money. They were then told a computer would decide what would happen. In reality, all participants received their preference.
Once again, 40 percent donated to charity. Among those who kept the money, people who believed the computer had made the choice for them felt better about the outcome.

You may have seen Anna's (twice!) and Vanessa's versions of Figgy's Ayashe blouse-once I saw them I HAD to get my hands on my own copy! I haven't had a chance to make the skirt yet, but I got a blouse made the other day-and I am in love! It's such a simple top but with quite a few ways to change it up. I love the little details like the gathering near the shoulders on the front, and the way it's finished on the inside is quite brilliant. Although honestly I couldn't figure out the collar instructions so I winged it. (there is a reason why I make my own patterns lots of the time....I'm a bit defunct at reading patterns.)
haha, Sadie looks like a child of the 70's in this picture! I think the fabric I used would be a lot cuter with some white leggings. Groovy. Fabric is from the Denyse Schmidt, Hope Valley line.
I made a size 2/3 and it fit the Sadester great-though I think I might lengthen it just a tad next time. Oh and there will be a next time, if I haven't already made one by the time you read this post. Oh what's this!?
Hello cutie!
Hey how would you like your own copy of the Ayashe blouse and skirt pattern?
Check out their awesome selection of patterns and let me know a few of your faves in a comment on this post and I'll pick a winner Sunday night! Make sure to leave an email so I can get a hold of you if you win!
The winner is....sewVery!

Please, ladies, tell me it's not true (but even if you tell me, how can I believe you?)
In Little White Lies, Deep Dark Secrets, Susan Shapiro Barash explains how women "tell all sorts of lies," and for women, lying is a way of life. It's also perfectly understandable -- and really not their fault:
"A woman's lies to friends, children, husband, lover, adult siblings, and co-workers are societally induced -- it's a tool used when we're missing out, when the life we dreamed of eludes us, when the going gets tough. It's interesting how a woman recognizes a lie coming from another woman (men often miss the lie, as do children, especially sons) and often endorse the behavior. Unless a woman's lie deliberately hurts another woman, it's as if we all belong to the same club, where the expedience of our lies proliferate and rule the day."
The last sentence makes my skin crawl. A male commentator at Amazon.com said this: "The interesting thing is the amorality of the writer and the female deceivers."
And you feminists think it's fair that a gender of expert liars can send an innocent man to prison on the basis of her uncorroborated word?
I am going to be citing this book in my arguments against the corroboration rule from now on. The tone in the quote above that seeks to understand the culture of lying is almost celebratory. The suggestion that it's OK to lie if only a male is hurt by it is morally grotesque. To say that all this is off-putting to someone concerned about false rape claims is a gross understatement. Unfortunately, that quote mirrors a culture that manifests itself on this site day in and day out -- where the truth is held hostage to a woman's selfish need to lie for the sake of expediency, often at a terrible cost to innocent men and boys.

I understand your frustration but this is going to bring the "women are liars" out of the woodwork.

- Snark said...
Yep. This is a smoking gun.
Nice find.
Since men do not revel in lying, a woman's word in a rape accusation should be automatically disbelieved, until evidence can be provided.
This should be the case anyway, but here is further proof. - Mar 5, 2010, 4:47:00 PM
Anon at 4:30: I didn't write the book, you know.
Now, do I think it's a serious study about the frequency of female lying? Of course not.
It is, however, entirely consistent with a culture that manifests itself on this site day in and day out, where the truth is held hostage to selfish expediency, often at great expense to men.
There is no question in my mind that women, who are more verbal and have superior interpersonal skills, are better liars than men. But to justify lying as understandable, and to couch that justification as a woman's issue -- well, sorry, that's fair game here.
You'd never see a similar book written with that tone about men lying. Any book that celebrated male lying, especially to women, would be denounced by pretty much everyone as disgusting and misogynistic. - Mar 5, 2010, 4:48:00 PM
Snark, I think the rule should be that no rape claim should even get to trial on the basis of an uncorroborated assertion. If the accused offers some proof that she consented to sex -- even his own sworn statement -- then the burden should shift back to the prosecution to produce sufficient corroborating evidence.
Yeah, enough is enough. The risk to innocent men is too great. - Mar 5, 2010, 4:53:00 PM
But there's liars, and then there's LIARS. Most women who lie will never end up like Crystal Mangum.
In general, I'm skeptical of the argument that women are inherently more deceitful than men. The problem is that women have far more opportunities to falsely accuse than men do. But if men who make up false rape accusations and get away with it, I think that there would be plenty of male false accusers out there. - Mar 5, 2010, 4:53:00 PM
Archivist: I agree. The only ultimate solution is to require corroboration and timely reporting.
- Mar 5, 2010, 4:54:00 PM
The modern American "gender feminist hysteria machine" serves many purposes. Most, if not all, American politicians can now cater to the hysteria machine and get elected...without addressing any real issues.
- Mar 5, 2010, 4:55:00 PM
4:54: . . . and a statute of limitations for all acquaintance rape cases. For stranger rape, it can be longer, but there needs to be a cutoff.
- Mar 5, 2010, 4:56:00 PM
Anon at 4:53, I agree with you that men would make their share of false rape claims, too, if they could get away with it. But they can't, so we'll never know for sure.
I do think men are easier to read. Lots of women have the interpersonal shit down pat. - Mar 5, 2010, 4:58:00 PM
Small children will lie, as a goal seeking ploy, whether to avoid a punishment or to avoid a chore.
Small children have no power. That is why they lie.
Small children who are male and grow up to be men learn not to lie.
Other boys teach them this.
Small children who are female and grow up to be women do not learn not to lie.
Other girls teach them this.
If you think boys in a schoolyard can be cruel to other boys, you haven't got a clue just how casually cruel girls in a schoolyard can be to other girls.
Women grow up to lie, because for them it is a perfectly normal and perfectly acceptable, least effort, least energy, goal seeking behaviour.
There is only one thing wrong with what I said above.
It should all be qualified with the noun "western", as in western men, western boys.
In other cultures, guess what, boys grow up pretty much the same.
Girls however do not, girls grow up more like western boys, MORE EQUALITY, equally discouraged from goal seeking via lies. - Mar 5, 2010, 5:01:00 PM
Enabling women to lie, is kinda like letting children lie, you can if you want, or you don't have to.
But when the legal system enables and fosters a culture of lying in the area of false rape accusations...that borders "systemic perversion", and i believe it nearing un-constitutional. - Mar 5, 2010, 5:04:00 PM
@ Archivist.
I disagree, I have known plenty of men who have lied about plenty of things.
With the sole exception of the junkies and psychopaths, every single man I have ever met will talk about a given lie and admit that telling the lie made him feel like shit, and it is ALL OVER his body language.
Women on the other hand, will claim they regret telling a lie, but the only thing that is ALL OVER their body language is anger at the fact that you dared to call them on it.
Think about it, you will see I was right...

I guess you can't believe me, if you've already decided that women are liars, but I am a woman who is not a liar. Most of my female friends, just like most of my male friends, are not liars. A small percentage of my male and female friends are liars, but I'd say similar numbers.
Granted, this is only personal experience, but it seems about as valid as the quote you mentioned.
Additionally, the individuals I associate with are highly educated, and in the range of 24-35 years old, so I don't have much experience with individuals outside that range, other than with parents, professors, and family friend, of course. - Mar 5, 2010, 5:16:00 PM
In Little White Lies, Deep Dark Secrets, Susan Shapiro Barash explains how women "tell all sorts of lies," and for women, lying is a way of life.
It's exactly what I've always said but like all females Ms Barash doesn't understand herself or the real reason why females lie so she gives the reason as, because we feel left out". Of course it's nonsense and the fact of the matter is the female has absolutely no insight into why she behaves the way she does anymore than a dog knows why it barks;or perhaps she's lying in this too. The actual reason that females lie and behave in an erratic manner, especially around men, is clearly a primitive survival mechanism. The female is physically weaker and intellectually inferior to the male and this is nature's strategy of balancing things to ensure her survival. And before some mangina starts stamping his foot and protesting what I just wrote he should consider why no great idea has ever come from the mind of the female. Go ahead, name one. Sure, females can memorise well which is why they can study and succeed as a lawyer or doctor for example but these areas only require a good memory not the real ability to reason or for abstract thinking. Females have existed on earth as long as the male yet in all that time have never come up with any sort of philosophy or plan to make the world a more organised and less chaotic place with a sense of justice and law.A female's sense of justice is whatever happens to be to her advantage at any particular time and she does not understand general principles. Personally I believe that certain neural pathways for higher moral thought are blocked in the female brain because having them would not be an aid to her survival or that of her child since the female's basic function in nature is to produce the next generation. There is no such thing as equality between the intellectual and thinking male and the more primitive female mind.The female only manages to fuction within a man's world because we created an artificial protected environment with special rules and benefits for them.And even in this environment a female will lie or try to place the blame on someone or something else when she makes an error and may be held accountable for it. It's just her nature no matter how much she is conditioned from childhood in morality. She doesn't really understand it all and only behaves a certain way due to conditioning. - Mar 5, 2010, 5:34:00 PM

Amanda, I certainly don't think that.
This sort of writing, although jarring, is very typical when it comes to women's issues -- treating something that ought to be condemned as understandable and seeking to explain it or to rationalize it -- as I say, in an almost celebretory manner. I could give lots of examples of that -- I have an article in front of me about a woman who writes how she falsely accused a young man of rape. We're supposed to be understanding. You see, for me this is especially loathsome because in the false rape realm, as another commentator wrote, the legal system enables false accusers and fosters a culture of lying.
No, I hsve zero tolerance for women who think it's OK to lie except if a lie hurts another woman. - Mar 5, 2010, 5:53:00 PM

Afor: All those things that you mentioned that a woman could do could also be done by a child. A child can drive a suburban or shoot a gun.And let's remember that all of these things were invented by men. Females(and children) can use all of men's inventions including a computer and internet(mostly to shop, gossip and annoy people on men's blogs lol)
And btw Madame Curie was working under the direction of her husband until he died in an accident. However, let's say that she was the exceptional woman and she figured out a way of isolating radium from pitchblend. This is really no different and takes the same pattern of thinking as baking a cake, only to the Nth degree and is by no means equal to a man who developes a general system of laws about life and the universe. - Mar 5, 2010, 6:20:00 PM

Yeah, Amanda, this quote, taken by itself, doesn't prove anything.
But it's symptomatic. That's the point. I don't think every woman is a liar. I'll even be charitable enough to say that I don't think women are inherently more deceitful than men.
But are women encouraged to lie for their own gain? Most certainly. And they are given all manner of opportunities to do so, and provided with all manner of rationalisations to protect their egos afterwards.
This is simply a smoking gun. A woman who not only admits that this is the case, but is encouraging it. Encouraging women to lie for their own sake. - Mar 5, 2010, 6:31:00 PM

It's one of those libels that nobody believes, CB Girl, so it's not legally actionable.

"The female is physically weaker and intellectually inferior to the male and this is nature's strategy of balancing things to ensure her survival."
I wouldn't say that women were intellectually inferior to men, but rather that their intellects are employed for different purposes.
For example, you won't find many women as recipients of Fields Medals, but then again, you won't find many women in jail for decades for crimes they didn't commit on the word of a man either.
Controlling who gets jailed and who lives free is just as powerful an accomplishment as winning elite prizes - arguably better, going by all the statistics evidencing the higher standard of living that women generally enjoy.
Yes, women lie more than men. They are better actors on average (and acting is at heart deception). But that only matters if you consider sincerity a more admirable quality than survival. As a man, I do, and I know my life is a more serene and less complicated one because of it - but that's also because as a man I value serenity. Women don't. They love mayhem, drama and emotional roller-coasting.
Men and women are so different that it's amazing we manage to get on as reasonably well as we do. Differences between races in the past have often resulted in massacres, but I know of no mass killing of one sex by the other (yet). Remember, as duplicitous as many women can be, they are well aware of their sister's natures. - Mar 5, 2010, 8:08:00 PM
Listen, men are just like women, without the drama.

Whether either gender lies more is moot.
At issue should be our culture's willingness to ascribe greater inherent honesty to women than to men.

Yes, this is the point. I welcome a book that addresses lying among women. I would think we're well overdue for such an examination, especially one focusing upon false rape accusations and perhaps delving extensively into the fallout society is now reaping for protecting women from being held responsible for their actions.
This book is just one more attempt to relieve women from all acountability....another push to pronounce the impossible; that women are superior, strong and empowered....yet somehow still incapable of things such as honesty or any degree of self-control.
I'm sure that, while the author applauds and defends women who lie, any man will be promptly maligned and vilified for indulging in identical behavior. - Mar 5, 2010, 10:44:00 PM

Let's see how this turns out but I can onlt guess lol These guys seem to be the targets of every wacko female around.
A college student has accused Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger of sexually assaulting her early yesterday at a Georgia nightclub, authorities said.
The alleged assault against the 20-year-old victim took place in the Capital City bar in Milledgeville, police said.
Roethlisberger's agent, Ryan Tollner, said the quarterback spoke to police about "an allegation" after "Ben and his friends met a group of women and everyone mingled together throughout the evening." He has not been charged.
Last year, Roethlisberger was hit with a claim of sexual abuse.
ROETHLISBERGER Faces second allegation.Andrea McNulty, an employee at Harrah's Lake Tahoe, filed a civil suit against the Super Bowl champ, alleging that in July 2008, while he was attending a celebrity golf tournament, he lured her to his room and raped her in the penthouse suite.
"Ms. McNulty feared that since he was a football player, he could or would physically harm her if she attempted to fight him," the suit said.
McNulty did not file a charge with cops.
The Steelers star denies her allegations and has countersued.
Roethlisberger's agent said yesterday that "obviously, given the prior accusation against Ben, we are skeptical of motive, but we will continue to cooperate." - Mar 6, 2010, 8:32:00 AM
"At issue should be our culture's willingness to ascribe greater inherent honesty to women than to men."
Is it that our culture thinks of women are more honest, or as more human? It seems that women are always thought of as little angels -- even when they behave like Crystal Mangum -- and of men as animals, or at least potential animals. - Mar 6, 2010, 11:59:00 AM
From today's NY post:
A Morningside Heights man went to move his SUV from a street in his neighborhood yesterday only to find it had been trashed -- with the words "Cheater" and "Rapist" scrawled on it in orange spray paint.
The vandals had also flattened three tires of Ed Robinson's Ford Expedition on LaSalle Street and left four golf-ball-size holes in the windshield.
Robinson, 34, said he was in "shock" but didn't explain much about what could have prompted the attack.
"There was a situation, and I guess some people had some hard feelings. But there was nothing to that," he said.

"you are getting the better end of the stick.. don't fool yourself about all this crap..."
Who is the 'you'?
You say that 'we' are getting the 'better end of the stick' because, in your view, rape is underreported.
But how does that help me, or any of the other regular posters here, none of whom are rapists?
It's VILE that you separate all of humanity into two camps - rapists (men) and victims (women).
Truly VILE.
Ladies and gentlemen, this is what a black-and-white worldview looks like. This specimen thinks that 'we' benefit from women being raped.
Except, this site simply exists to draw attention to the fact of false rape accusations - the REAL underreported crime.
Why are trolls so unable to separate out the TWO different crimes of rape, and false rape accusation?
There is no 'better end of the stick' when EITHER crime is taking place.
The Archivists have stated MULTIPLE times that they are anti-rape just as much as they are anti-false rape accusations. The two positions are hardly mutually exclusive - does it make sense to say that, because I'm anti-theft, I am in favour of people making false accusations of theft? Or that, being anti-false theft accusations, I support theft?
The only one who thinks that opposing the two crimes is mutually exclusive, is YOU - and that is because you are a vile human being. - Mar 6, 2010, 2:48:00 PM

T.O. would have had well over 1,000 receiving yards last season had he stayed healthy. I don't think Randy Moss has more than 20-30 catches all season. Chad Ochocinco would be a big lift for the Bears, in my estimation. I just don't see Plaxico Burress as being the answer with his legal issues.
Legal issues aside, the man sat in prison for a year or two, no workouts (at least no NFL caliber workouts), how the hell is he supposed to get into football shape and learn the most complicated playbook in NFL history?

Lionel Messi has said that he is hoping to face Real Betis on Sunday after escaping a major injury scare last night. Messi left Barcelona's goalless UEFA Champions League draw with Benfica on a cart in the 84th minute after colliding with visiting goalkeeper Artur Moraes.
The sight of their star player being taken off the pitch silenced the Barça fans, but there was relief soon after with the club confirming the injury was no worse than a bruised left knee. Messi worked in the gym as his team-mates trained outside today, and said he still had a chance of playing at the weekend.
"I feel fine, but I don't know yet if I will be available for Sunday," he said at a promotional event at the Camp Nou today, reported on the team's official website and in AS. "I'll see. I am grateful for all the messages of support I have received."
Messi said he was hurt when he struck Moraes, but then tried to score with a curling shot before falling to the ground and clutching his knee. "I thought it was the last shot I was going to have for a long time," he said. "So I decided to gamble and hit it."
Admitting he feared the worst, he added: "The truth is I did not think about anything because all I could feel was the pain. But in a moment I thought the worst. When it was shown it was not a severe injury I was calmer."
Messi's involvement in last night's game has been a major talking point in light of the injury he suffered as the match was essentially meaningless to Tito Vilanova's men, already assured of top spot in Group G. However, Messi said he never let the fear of injury affect his approach to the game, and that he preferred to stay sharp by playing.
"Something similar could have happened in training or anywhere else," he said. "Whenever you walk onto a pitch there is a risk."
The 25-year-old went into the game one goal shy of Gerd Muller's record of 85 in a calendar year and there were suggestions the Argentina forward had only played in order to chase the milestone. However, Messi said the record was not as important to him as was being made out.
"As I have always said, for me the record is not an obsession," he said. "My colleagues have said they will help me and with them, I am not worried. It would be great, and hopefully if I do it, it will stand for a long time like Muller's, but it's not something I worry about. If it doesn't happen, it doesn't matter. But we are close so we will try."
Messi also downplayed the potential detrimental affect an injury to him could have on Barcelona. "They would continue to play with or without me," he said. "There are plenty of other players."

Comments about Medela Swing Breastpump:
I am a stay at home mom of 3. This pump is great if you are not pumping to go back to work. I pump a few times a week to build up a supply of frozen milk for those few instances I need to be away from baby and to help with weaning at 1 year. I have used this pump with all three. The only con for me is, since you can only pump one side a time it takes twice as long as a double pump, but that is not an issue for me, as i only pump 3 or 4 times a week. The variable strength is great, it allows me to find the right suction each time. You can also put batteries in it, which makes it great for road trips/travel.

These wedges are SO wonderful! It's 29 degrees where I live, I am craving summer, and want to wear them right away! Fit is true to size (I wear size 9.5 in Reva; 8.5 in all other Tory shoes). They are very comfy-the wedge makes them very stable and the flowers are so adorable-tried them on with the skinny jeans I wore today and they looked really cute. If you're like me, craving something to brighten your day and yearning for summer, this shoe delivers.

'Build a City of Charity in L.A.,' archbishop urges fellow priests
Besides serving as the vehicle for the blessing of sacramental oils used by parishes throughout the coming year, the Chrism Mass is also the occasion at which priests renew their sacred vows and recommit themselves to service.
"Each of us who has been baptized has a priestly soul," said Archbishop Gomez. "We are called to be holy people. We are called to make our lives something beautiful that we offer in sacrifice to God. We are called to strive for holiness, to self-denial, and to acts of love and mercy. In this sense we all share in the common priesthood of Jesus Christ," he said.
"But the ordained priest is someone altogether different — in the Church and in God's plan for salvation. By your ordination, you offered your humanity to Christ so that Christ might use you as an instrument of salvation for others."
On this note, the archbishop spoke of Venerable Nelson Baker, a man who served in the militia from
"It was not a career move," said the archbishop, "but rather a response to a personal call to do more." Father Baker started several ministries — a hospital, orphanage, vocational training school for boys, a home for unwed mothers with prenatal care and an adoption service.
"Father Baker always sought to do more in response to his call from God and for those around him," said Archbishop Gomez, pointing out that Father Baker was known to have served more than a million meals a year during the Great Depression.
"Father Baker was trying to build what he called a 'City of Charity,'" said Archbishop Gomez, who then asked his brother priests to join him in building "a City of Charity here in Los Angeles — a city where the love of God is made real in our neighborhoods and homes, in our hearts, and at our altars."
As is customary, the Chrism Mass served as an opportunity to honor the archdiocesan and religious order priests who will celebrate their 50-year jubilees in 2011. Of the 10 golden jubilarian priests who attended the Chrism Mass, two continue to serve as pastors: Msgr. John Barry, of American Martyrs,
Others attending were: Father James Bradley, SDS, Passionist Father Michael Hoolahan, Father Joseph Duc Minh, Msgr. John O'Byrne, Msgr. Peter O'Reilly, Columban Father Thomas Reynolds, Father Gilbert Romero and Father Thomas Stehly. (A future article in The Tidings will detail the contributions of these golden jubilarian priests.)

You will not find a better patio set for the price. We have it on our deck, when our adult children come with their children, we quickly extend the table for all of us to enjoy our barbeque. After they all leave, we put it back to a small table. We love it. Our friends are always asking about the extension and how it works and we are happy to show them how easy it is to change the size of the table. This was exactly what we were looking for.

The umbrella matches the chair cushions and they make a beautiful patio set.
from Auburn, California
The cushions are very nice but I expected them to be a little thicker and more plush. However, they are quality cushions and were a good value, so I'm happy with them.I ordered these just days before the FREE DELIVERY option was made via email and I then ordered a matching umbrella and got free delivery on it. I requested free delivery on the cushions but was refused and I think I should have had the $17.99 delivery charge waived since I bought the umbrella and would have waited to order the cushions had I known the free delivery offer was coming.

nice cushions. Quick delivery. I'm very happy with this purchase.
Questionable quality
By laker

I like the table, but it came with a couple of significant dings on the top )not related to shipping) and a side rail that is split underneath. Not sure how this got past quality control.

About Me High-end Shopper
We have had the table less than 2 months and it has already warped so much it is impossible for a plate to sit flat. We ended up purchasing another table yesterday (not from this company). A huge disappointment. [...] Plow and Hearth has lost a customer. Not sure why they sell such cheap quality products.
Looks Great!
By NapaMom
from Napa, CA
I am really happy with this table and chairs set. It looks great, was very easy to assemble and so far very durable, though I've only had it since April. It looks expensive, but has an incredibly reasonable price. It is perfect for what we were looking for with a limited budget.

By Golfing Gal

Before we used the table and chair set, we oiled with teak finish (two coats). We figured it needed all the protection it could get since we live in the mountains.Very impressive piece on our deck. Very generous chairs and table is a great size to easily sit 8 people.
This was a good product [...]

We needed a lazy susan for our large outdoor table. This was perfect and helps a lot when we have 6-8 people to serve.
Handsome table and chairs
By Liv the dog lover

I love my new table and chairs. They match my Adirondack chairs marvelously. Thank goodness, however, I have a dear friend who was kind enough to assemble them. I do not think that I could have managed that! BUT it was well worth the effort! They are both beautiful and functional!
Good Quality; Great Price
By Outdoor diner
from Connecticut
The table is wide enough to put food in the middle and still have plenty of room to eat all around.The wood is beautiful and you must be willing to maintain it's beauty with seasonal treatment with teak oil. Well worth it, in my opinion.
Love our new set!

Americans' Got Talent: Will a championship follow in franchise's fourth season?
BY Kevin Hageland,
Published: Wednesday, October 17, 2012 2:53 PM CDT
Much has been made of the Allen Americans' additions to the front office over the summer.
And rightfully so as the franchise added former Dallas Stars Mike Modano, Ed Belfour, Craig Ludwig and Richard Matvichuk (all members of the 1998-99 Stanley Cup-winning team) with Matvichuk signing on as Allen's defensive coach while Modano, Belfour and Ludwig became minority owners.
But the Americans believe they have collected more than just big names heading into the 2012-13 season, which commences Saturday (7:05 p.m.) and Sunday (4:05 p.m.) with home games against the Arizona Sundogs.
"We have a lot of physical players, but also plenty of skill, so I think it's a good mix," Modano said. "We want to win and when you look at the players we've got, I think we should win."
But the Americans have felt that way before.
That's why first-year Allen head coach Steve Martinson was brought in to replace Dwight Mullins, who coached the Americans in their first three seasons.
While Mullins led the team to the CHL Finals in its inaugural season, 2009-10, and the best regular season record in 2010-11, the Americans were continually tripped up in the playoffs. The club advanced a round less each year, with many noting the Americans' postseason downfall being because the club was more finesse than grit.
This team is looking to change that perception.
"We didn't want prima donnas, we wanted tough team guys that would all pull the same way," Ludwig said. "And I think we were able to find the players that fit what we were looking for, so we are going to be a tough team to play. You don't want to beat us, because if you do, we're going to make you pay for it."
Though that's not to say skill has been sacrificed along the way.
"We don't put toughness ahead of winning games," Martinson said. "We were able to bring players back and also got some of the top guys from the [East Coast Hockey League] as well as guys that were successful in the [American Hockey League]. And I like what I've seen so far because we have a good blend of size, speed, toughness and skill."
Among those returning when training camp opened last week were forward Jarret Lukin, an initial member of the franchise, and forwards Nino Musitelli, Kip Brennan and goalie Chris Whitley, who all previously played for Allen but were on different teams last season.
But a training camp spot is no guarantee of a position on the opening-day roster.
"We welcome tough decisions," Martinson said. "I don't think we wanted to get to the preseason and realize, 'we've got to get more skill and we've got to get better.'"
The Americans made some tough decisions in the offseason, not bringing back Colton Yellow Horn and Bruce Graham, both of whom had been on the CHL All-Star Team and played for Allen since 2009-10.
"We were just looking for some different guys," Martinson said. "Fans thought those guys were great, but now we've got some new great players."
Finding those players was a bit easier than in previous seasons.
"When you've got some Hall of Famers as part of the organization," Ludwig said, "maybe you get a few more calls from guys who want to play here."
It wasn't just the Hall of Famers that the team sold though.
"This franchise has a very unique atmosphere," Martinson said. "I told anyone interested in coming over to look up Allen, Texas, and look up the quality of life they could have here."
Among the new blood is forward Daryl Bootland, who played in the ECHL last year.
"It was a bit of a tough season in Kalamazoo," Bootland said, "so when I had this opportunity, I jumped on it."
The team also signed forward Scotty Howes, who was an ECHL Playoff MVP with the Alaska Aces in 2010-11. Howes isn't the only Allen player to hold that distinction as returning forward Jason Deitsch was a CHL Postseason MVP with the then Texas, now Fort Worth, Brahmas.
"We want guys that have had playoff success," Martinson said. "Because all that really matters is winning that last game."
Among the other players the Americans brought into training camp were Anthony Maiani, Ryley Grantham, Trevor Ludwig, Jamie Schaafsma, Mike Montgomery and Andrew Howes, all of whom scored goals in the team's back-to-back 3-1 preseason wins over the Brahmas last weekend.
But as those scores show, last weekend wasn't all about offense.
"We have put a lot of focus on our defense," Matvichuk said. "And I think we've got some tough, physical defenders that can also move the puck."
Among the defenders in training camp were Derek Matheson, Mike Berube, Trevor and Tyler Ludwig. That quartet helped block the way for goalies Aaron Dell and Steve Silverthorn, who picked up the respective preseason wins between the pipes.
Allen's preseason success, and big names, is something the league has taken note of.
"I've talked to other CHL coaches and general managers," Matvichuk said, "and we've definitely got a target on our back."
Trevor agreed with that assertion.
"Whether it's good or bad, we can't fly under the radar because we've got so many guys who have won championships," he said.
And they are all looking for another one.
"We have one step left and that's to win it all," Matvichuk said. "Anything less than a championship is unacceptable."
Saturday is the start of that process, but Martinson warns it will be a long one.
"We can talk championship now, but there are a lot of little steps that lead to that, just like there are a lot of little steps that lead to scoring a goal," he said. "The first step is assembling the right team and I think we've done that."

In perhaps the most significant finding, no one in any of the research projects suffered significant negative effects.
"At this point, we've had almost 3,000 heart patients treated with stem cells worldwide, and had absolutely no report of serious adverse effects," says Bolli. "Stem cells seem to do no harm, and there's certainly a lot of evidence that they are beneficial."
The University of Miami-led study was seen as important because researchers tested an important variation. About half of the 31 patients in the study received an infusion of their own stem cells, while the other half got stem cells from healthy donors.
Dr. Denis Buxton, an official at the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute (NHLBI), which funded the research, said donor cells offer potential advantages. "One, it simplifies logistics, so a hospital without a cell processing facility can still perform the treatment." That would also reduce the cost.
In addition, Buxton says donated cells are likely to be more robust than cells from heart patients, who tend to be older and have chronic health problems.
"Stem cells are adversely affected by age and diabetes," says Dr. Jay Traverse, an associate professor of medicine at the Minnesota Heart Institute and the University of Minnesota, who presented a study using people's own bone-marrow stem cells. "If you could use cells from a healthy young donor, that would be ideal."
Traverse is now preparing to embark on a multi-center study using donated cardiac stem cells to treat heart attack patients. The project has NHLBI funding and is led by Dr. Eduardo Marban of Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles. Traverse says the approach is promising because cardiac stem cells are naturally programmed to generate new heart tissue. By one estimate, he says, an individual's heart will replace every cell eight times over the course of a lifetime.
In a pilot study of 17 patients, presented last year, Marban used patients' own heart cells to regrow more than a third of lost tissue. Traverse says that if donor cells prove safe --- as they seem to be, based on Tuesday's presentations --- it would open the door to use the treatment much more widely. The first patient will be treated this month.
While acknowledging that questions remain --- about timing, the type of cells to use and the method of delivery, to name a few --- Traverse sounds supremely confident. "In the long run, this is definitely going to work," he says. " In 10 to 20 years, I think we'll be able to change the natural history of a heart attack."

Track and Field Equipment
The world's first aluminum rocker hurdle, invented by company founder John Marzucco in 1949 and patented in 1952, is what started it all. But track hurdles were just the beginning for AAE track equipment. We soon expanded our line of track and field equipment for sale to include pole vault poles and equipment, high jump equipment, throwing equipment, starting blocks and anything else a track coach could need. |
Football Field Equipment
In 1965, AAE introduced its own football goal posts and rugby goal posts to local schools and universities. Our reputation for designing quality custom equipment is what ultimately spawned the first portable football goal posts for the Philadelphia Eagles' summer camps in 1968. And today, AAE football field equipment can be found in numerous NFL stadiums...and at schools across the nation. |
Soccer Field Equipment
As early as 1968, existing customers began approaching AAE for better quality soccer goals than what was currently on the market. And it didn't take long for us to offer a full line of soccer field equipment: permanent soccer goals, portable soccer goals, practice soccer goals, soccer goal nets and practice soccer goals for sale. We even designed the first Rollaway Combination Football Soccer Goal for Georgetown University's rooftop field. |
Lacrosse Field Equipment
Dramatic growth of intercollegiate lacrosse in the Northeast during the early 1970s sparked greater demand for lacrosse field equipment in our region. Given our existing relationships with athletic directors and coaches for other sports equipment, AAE's segue into manufacturing lacrosse goals, lacrosse nets and lacrosse backstop nets was a natural progression. |
Field Hockey Equipment
With popularity of our football goal posts, soccer goals and lacrosse goals swelling, field hockey goals were added to complete our goal line in the mid 70s. But we had to improve the design – so ours were the first offered with a bottom board cushioning system that substantially increased the life of our field hockey goals over competitors' models. |
Baseball Field Equipment
Manufacturing discus cages for decades, AAE decided to branch out in the early 90s with its own baseball batting tunnels, baseball backstop netting and eventually baseball foul poles. And with an established line of baseball and softball field equipment like baseball benches and
bleachers, our baseball batting cage nets added another dimension to our support of the sport. |
Ball Stopper Sports Netting
The late 1980s saw an increase in multi-purpose sports fields – especially the inside track area used for everything from football and soccer to lacrosse and field hockey. This congestion of crossover practices created a ball containment problem that AAE solved with our Ball Stopper sports netting. Unique safety aspects of this backstop netting help protect other athletes, bystanders and property from the danger of stray balls. |
Athletic Field Equipment
Every sport has its own key equipment, but just as important are the peripheral items that can be used across all sports. Our video/band towers, portable bleachers, scorer's tables, team benches, team shelters and particularly our DONKEY elevated sports platform and portable press box products are integral in establishing well-equipped and successful athletic programs. |
Kronum Goals
Just when we thought our goal line was complete, we were approached in 2008 to fabricate a production quality goal for a cutting-edge, new sport created in the Philly Burbs – Kronum. As the Official Supplier of Kronum Goals to the Kronum League, AAE continues to stay in the forefront of the athletic industry. |
Athletic Field Design ConsultingOne of the benefits of designing athletic equipment from the bottom up is
our understanding of the scope of stadium and athletic field projects.
AAE knows the ins and outs of installation requirements and collegiate
and high school level rules and regulations to follow for track and field
design, baseball field design, soccer field design, football field design
and other athletic design projects.

Pro-Gun Protesters Rally Outside Maryland State House
Hundreds gather on the day Gov. Martin O'Malley testifies in favor of gun legislation he proposed earlier this year.
By Rashee Raj Kumar Capital News Service Hundreds of gun rights advocates rallied outside the State House Wednesday in opposition to new gun control measures proposed by Gov. Martin O'Malley. As O'Malley testified in favor of new gun restrictions before the Senate Judicial Proceedings Committee, protesters outside said his proposals to ban assault weapons, limit magazine sizes and strengthen licensing measures would erode their rights. Jay Hanlon, a retiree from Silver Spring, held a sign arguing that the Second Amendment protected gun ownership, including assault weapons, as a check against "Domestic Enemies." "That's the weapon we need to defend ourselves against a government gone bad—against our oppressors," said Hanlon, 65. Kerry …

If you forget or lose your password, there are several things you can try to reset or recover it. For more info, see What to do if you forget your Windows password.
If you think your password has been compromised or stolen by someone with malicious intent, we can help. For more info, see Get back into your Microsoft account if it's been blocked or hacked.
If you're signing in to only your local PC, yes. However, we recommend that you keep your PC more secure by using a strong password. When you use a password, only someone who knows it can sign in. If you want to sign in to Windows with a Microsoft account, a password is required.
Stronger passwords contain a variety of characters, including uppercase and lowercase letters, numerals, and symbols or spaces. A strong password should also be something that is difficult for a stranger to guess or crack. It shouldn't contain a complete word, or easy-to-find details like your real name, your user name, or your birth date. For more info, see Tips to create strong passwords and passphrases.
If you're signing in to a Microsoft account, your password is limited to 16 characters.
You can update your password regularly to keep it more secure—or change passwords for other people who use your PC, if you have an administrator account. The steps are different, depending on whether your PC is connected to a domain. For detailed steps, see Change your password.
No. You can use any email address for your Microsoft account, even an email address from a third-party web-based mail service like Google Mail or Yahoo! Mail. But when you choose a password for your Microsoft account, it doesn't change the password you might need to use to sign in to web mail on a third-party site. (If you want to, you can use the same password for both. However, using a variety of passwords for different purposes helps keep your info more secure.)
Create a picture password to sign in with gestures instead of by entering characters.
Tap or click Users. Under Sign-in options, tap or click Create a picture password and then follow the on-screen instructions.
When you choose a password for your user account, it's important to pick something you can remember. You're going to need it again later! To help you remember your password, you can add a password hint, as long as your PC isn't on a domain. For detailed steps, see Create or change a password hint.
Of course, you can also write your password down and keep it in a safe place. Taped to the underside of your laptop or the inside of your desk drawer is probably not a good idea, however. If you do write your password down, be sure to keep it separate from your PC.
For added security, consider using different passwords for different purposes. For example, you might want to keep one password for all your social networking accounts, and another one to sign in to your online bank account or other financial services.
If you do forget or lose your password, there are still several things you can try to reset or recover it. For more info, see What to do if you forget your Windows password.

I LOVE coffee. And I also really love hot tea.
Tonight, I was shopping at my local thrift store, and found a brand new espresso machine for a great price. It was still in the original package, all wrapped up securely, with the owner's manual included.
So, now I'm learning how to make espresso and cappuccino for the very first time. I've watched some how-to videos online, and I'm ready to give it a try.
Do any of you have an espresso machine in your home?
What other coffee or tea beverages do you enjoy making at home?
I have been making hot tea for years, using a simple teapot, covered with a handknit cozy. So, I'm good with that. And I also have a Senseo coffee machine, so I'm experienced at making that as well. This espresso machine is my next adventure. Wish me luck!

i think America's conflicted over it's ideology of capitalism. Capitalism,like communism, or socialism is a means to an end, and as the ends keep changing, so should the US approach be.
US is a great nation with many strengths, and it has done loads of good for its' citizens as also the world. But unbridled corporate greed has crept into people and now ANY governments' legitimate actions (defense, social welfare and investment directions) are to be trimmed, so corporates can continue to enrich themselves even as the US citizens suffer - this cannot be an acceptable outcome to anyone with an iota of sense.
At a time when US HDI (healthcare and education are especially shocking) is near the bottom of OECD, corporates and the rich should be patriotic enough to chip in and save America, not demand their pound of flesh even more noisily.
Something quite not right about the way different interest groups are floating new theories to muddy the waters.
Well Communism and Socialism had an "end" which was a classless, wealthy society. Socialism was a more evoluationary and pragmatic path, that possibly didn't see the complete disappperance of class.
I am not so sure capitalism does, other than eventually providing the greatest good for the greatest number of people (so maybe an utilitarian end). Of course Adam Smith wasn't against all goverment plans or programs, because he wasn't an anarchist.
As for human development, according to the UN the US was a surprising fourth in 2011 (see http://hdr.undp.org/en/statistics/ ):
4.United States
5.New Zealand
For the OECD "Better Life INdex" the US comes in third when all are criteria are weighted equally (I believe).
Here is access the wild flower graph chart - http://www.oecdbetterlifeindex.org/ - you have to make a few selections possibly (like sort by ranking).
The PISA scores for education give the US a pretty mediocre rating, aside for language maybe.
