Oyster Bay
Trip Ideas
Explore Further
In the mid-1700s, both the English and the Dutch inhabited picturesque Oyster Bay, which accounts for the fact that the place has two main streets just a block apart. East Main Street was once controlled by the Dutch, West Main Street by the English.
Named for Oyster Bay's most prominent resident, the Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Park is a charming little downtown park along the water on Long Island Sound.
Oyster Bay, Cold Spring Harbor, and Old Bethpage can all be combined into one nice day trip from New York City, starting in Sagamore Hill (Oyster Bay), with lunch in Cold Spring Harbor, and on to the Whaling Museum or Old Bethpage Village to round out the day. To reach Oyster Bay from Route 25A, head north on Route 106.
Raynham Hall
Among Oyster Bay's notable historic homes–turned-museums is Raynham Hall (20 W. Main St., 516/922-6808, www.raynhamhallmuseum.org, 1–5 p.m. Tues.–Sun., adults $5, students and seniors $3, children under six free), once the home of prosperous Revolutionary War–era merchant Samuel Townsend. Townsend was a suspected Tory, but his son was George Washington's chief spy in New York City.
When the war broke out, Raynham Hall was confiscated by the British, though Townsend's daughter Sally remained in the house. There she overheard the British discussing Benedict Arnold's planned betrayal of West Point and conveyed that information to the colonists.
Planting Fields Arboretum
West of Oyster Bay is Planting Fields Arboretum State Historic Park (Planting Fields Rd., 516/922-9200, www.plantingfields.org, 9 a.m.–5 p.m. daily, $6–8 parking), a lush affair on the former estate of insurance executive William Robertson Coe. Some 160 acres here are planted with ornamental trees and shrubs, while about 200 other acres are preserved in their natural state.
At the heart of Planting Fields is Coe Hall (516/922-9210, noon–3:30 p.m. daily Apr.–Sept., adults $5, seniors $3.50, children 7–12 $1), a Tudor Revival stone mansion. The 1918 house is furnished with European antiques to give it the feel of an old English country manor.
Accommodations and Food
For overnight stays, the East Norwich Inn (6321 Northern Blvd./Rte. 25A, at Rte. 106, 516/922-1500, $122 s, $137 d) is a pleasant, upscale motel offering comfortable rooms with double beds.
For dining in downtown Oyster Bay, you'll find Wild Honey (1 East Main St., 516/922-4690, $21), a restaurant that serves creative American food in a beautiful historic building—formerly Teddy Roosevelt's executive office.
Canterbury Ales Oyster Bar & Grill (46 Audrey Ave., 516/922-3614, $14–28), specializing in its namesake—direct from Oyster Bay, of course. Also on the menu are various fish entrées, lobster, pasta, and wild game.

Can a chai-obsessed, meat-loving writer become a green juice-drinking vegan for 21 days in order to detox her body? Find out
Sweatin' out the toxins
Exercising is a crucial component of any good, sane detox plan. Think about it: During a time when you're trying to eliminate as many toxins as possible, sweating is one of the smartest things you can do. Your skin is your largest detox organ, after all.Luckily, I've got this part of the plan in the bag thanks to the fact that I'm a workout fiend. I do Pilates three mornings a week before work, try to sneak in at least one yoga class a week (two if I can), and I'm also a spin class addict. For me, sweating is an essential part of my day -- a completely enjoyable way to burn off stress and angst (not to mention calories).
In an ideal world, I'd also be making time to sit in a sauna (more sweating), dry brush my body before showering (which stimulates lymphatic drainage), and meditate (to help detox negative thoughts) while following this detox diet. But so far, I've only had time for my Monday-Wednesday-Friday Pilates sessions and a few spin classes each week. And I'm OK with that.

House Majority leader,John Boehner, and his Republican colleagues with their emphasis on Free Market fundamentalism, privatization, and unbridled freedom for the investing class will continue their attacks on the social safety net. Their failed efforts to disenfranchise voters and cripple unions clearly highlights their vision of unencumbered capitalism. The danger, of course, is that their commitment to corporate dominance and the maximization of profits will result in future ecological catastrophe as the one witnessed on the East Coast. Their willingness to deny climate change in the pursuit of profits puts all of humankind in peril.
In contrast, President Obama and the Progressive wing of the Democratic party stands for inclusiveness, moderation, and the promise of ameliorating ethnic and class antagonisms. They advocate for a more just and equitable society. They envision capitalism with a human face that expands health care, that protects Medicare, Medicaid, and Social Security. They question Citizens United as the judicial shield protecting the power of the financial and corporate elite.
We can not rely on Obama and the Democratic party to ensure our democracy's vibrancy, but rather, it is we the people who must curb the excesses of the corporate and financial elites by our energy, by our creativity, and by our commitment to the political process. Ultimately, it will be the citizenry, you and I, who determine whether democracy will flower or as in Langston Hughes' poem, "dry up like a raisin in the sun...fester and ...explode". We must be ever vigilant and active lest our rights are incrementally taken from us and we are relegated to submissive servants to an authoritarian elite.

What's Behind the Gas Price Gap in Lubbock?
By: Michaela MacDonald
Updated: January 17, 2013
A viewer called our attention to a gas price gap in Lubbock. Prices were significantly lower at west Lubbock stations than the same brand stations in south Lubbock.
"I went to United down the street and got gas for $2.62 the other day and I work out at slide, everyday on the other side of slide and its almost $3 out there," said Ryan Lowrance.
"Every penny counts so it may not seem like much of a difference but it adds up over time," said Mary Backis.
Consumers have been taking advantage of these low gas prices in West Lubbock.
"I'm working three jobs and still not making it so I've got to pay attention to what I'm spending," said Lowrance.
As of Thursday afternoon, gas prices in west Lubbock were as much as 12 cents cheaper than the same brand stations in South Lubbock. But Charles Bolton of Bolton Oil says this gap is small compared to a few weeks ago.
"That is the closest it has been in really three weeks. It has been 20 cents difference," said Bolton.
Bolton says prices are based on nearby competitors and one new gas station drove down the price.
"A new station opened up on 4th St and they just knocked the bottom out of the prices. As they were there for a few days other marketers met their price and that is what has been going on for the last 3 weeks," he said.
He says that their stations have been losing 20 to 30 cents a gallon keeping prices that low.
"It costs a lot of money to sell below cost. It's not something that people enjoy doing but from time to time that does happen," said Bolton.
And Bolton says thankfully for their company the price gap seems to be closing.
"They haven't been as aggressive on 4th St the last two or three days as they have been last two or three weeks. And you know part of that is going to depend on the prices of fuel and how much those locations are losing," said Bolton.
Bolton says Lubbock has always had a very competitive gas market. He says Lubbock prices average 10-15 cents cheaper than surrounding towns.

EVOL Air Chamber
The infinitely adjustable pressure setting in the extra volume (EVOL) air chamber regulates spring rate in the final portion of the stroke and controls the bottom-out characteristics of the shock.
Take your riding to the next level of performance and adjustability. The spring rates can be easily adjusted for your riding style and terrain. Fine tune your ride height and plushness independent of your bottom-out resistance and roll stiffness. Inside the anodized 6061-T6 aluminum, bodies the application-specific valving will soak up even the hardest of terrain. Turn the rebound adjuster to fine tune shock action to the terrain and your riding style.
The infinitely adjustable pressure setting in the extra volume (EVOL) air chamber regulates spring rate in the final portion of the stroke and controls the bottom-out characteristics of the shock.
The rebound knob allows you to tune the damping rate on the extension stroke in order to optimize control in all conditions.
One of the most significant components in any shock is its piston and valving … they are the heart of any damper. Every shock in our lineup utilizes our race-proven Velocity-Sensitive Damping Control technology. Through the use of different piston flow designs and variable valving specifications, we are able to custom tune each shock for its intended application.
Working closely with one of the word's leading seal suppliers, FOX Racing Shox has developed our unique dual stage Samurai Sealing System (SSS) for use on all FLOAT 2, FLOAT X, and FLOAT X EVOL air shocks. The seals in the SSS are specifically designed from a special low-temperature, highly durable material that scrapes away snow, ice, and debris while simultaneously keeping the seals lubricated for minimal friction.
Air springs provide a number of distinct advantages over their coil spring counterparts in the right application. They give a progressive spring rate, are infinitely adjustable, and provide a significant weight savings.

Unlike the original Tekken Tag Tournament, Tekken Tag Tournament 2 features a storyline,although it is still not canon. The story is still unrevealed as of July 2012. It is more of a "dream match", giving fans the opportunity to play as almost every character in the series up to that point, including some of those that had apparently been missing in the main Tekken storyline, in addition to the character roster of Tekken 6.

This is my second Updated review>>
The game does not have a story mode. Combot training is as close to a story that you can get with this one. The game offers Solo gameplay like tekken 6 and also tag team option for single player or multiplayer.
>If you have 2 gamepads then you and your friend can play as a team to defeat other teams online or in pair play offilne.
>Ending movies are awesome
>loads of customization and you can spend hours into customizing your character.
>you can now play your customer music in the ghame just copy you mp3 files onto your ps3 and enable them via tekken tunes.
>view you tekken online player card at wtf.tekken.com [wtf=world tekken federation]
You need to have a good internet connection with less than 50ms ping or you will loose and your combos will not work.
>Ranked matches are an easy way to up your characters rank
>You can download the ghost of previously ranked matches.
>You can also create your own session and play with your friends online
>World arena lets you openly challenge any opponent on the arena.
>while waiting for a ranked match to begin you can practice with Mokujin as a dummy.
Game Info:
works fine, you just need to wait for the game to be released worldwide and on its second day of confirmed worldwide release the DLC code will work. Thanks to flipkart I got an extra DLC code. I will always pre-order from you guys.
>Now I have all Swimsuit costumes and michelle chang and angel along with snoop dogg stage and ane extra dynamic theme based on tekken.
>With DLC code you will also get the first tekken as an additional download.
>you also get an extra bonus costume of Lily with the DLC code.
Online gameplay:
You need to use the provided online gameplay code or you wont be able to play online. People who did not get the online access code need to buy it for an additional 560 rupees from PSN Store
October 9th Update:
Now you get 3 more characters: Miharu [really cute female character], Sebastin[lily's butler], Slim BOB [slimmer version of bob].
>New stages and Online world arena has been added.
>Difficulty level of easy and medium has been lowered so now you can beat the Arcade mode with just about any characer by mashing the buttons.
>Load time of customized characters has been reduced
Decals Now Available: Use your decals to put on the clothing of your character, just like decals on NFS games.
Next update: people who did not get the DLC can stil get the rest of the characters on tekken tag 2's next update.
I am still waiting for kunimitsu and ancient ogre.
Verdict: Guys, we need to understand that the DLC code works through PSN and the codes for each region get updated on the servers only after 1 or 2 days after the game's release worldwide. I got the code a day before delivery of the game and five days later the code worked. Flipkart support has been awesome till now. ieven got the extra 500 rupees back in my wallet after the pre-order cost was reduced from 3k to 2.5k.
This Tekken installment is the BEST TEKKEN GAME to date. Namco, has done an amazing job by answering to all the requests of the TEKKEN FANS.
Power packed PRACTICE MODE, FIGHT LAB for beginners which also allows players to customize moves of COMBOT, the ability to PLAY SOLO, PAIR- PLAY allowing upto 4 players to play simultaneously, PRE-SELECTABLE BUTTON CONFIGURATIONS, THE BIGGEST CHARACTER ROSTER featuring nearly all the characters right from Tekken 1 to Tekken 6, the ability to store UPTO TEN CUSTOMIZED COSTUMES PER CHARACTER and the best of them all : THE ABILITY TO AUTOMATICALLY SAVE ALL THE VERSUS MATCHES, SO THAT THEY CAN BE REVIEWED LATER WHICH CAN BE PREVIEWED WITH DAMAGES LISTED are just a few of the features that make this game truly stand out from the rest.
Finally, I have to mention that I have also had problems with the pre-order. I was really impressed with the way THE FLIPKART TEAM has responded to my problem. They even gave me an option to refund the excess amount directly to my bank account. How cool was that!!
After going through the reviews from other users, I guess that everybody who ordered from FLIPKART are having problems with the DLC including myself. When I contacted them about the issue, they said that they would look into the issue within 24hrs which I think is pretty decent on their part. I am sure that they would sort this out. CHEER UP GUYS!!
5 STARS to the game and 4 STARS to the TEAM.
so here is my review for my first ps3 title ....woo hooo
1. ttt2 is awesome plus its online feature is also nice....although because we are in india,finding a challenger is hard though.
2.charecters...wooo....so much...every one is der...plus on my second update i got 3 new charecter.....we have 2 laws....jin,devil jin,jinpachi,jun,michelle as jaycee and so many fan favourite
3.flipkart delvered it on time
4. i am thinking that why flipkart drops the price in just 10-15 days gap........when i bought around starting october it was priced 2799 but today it is 2399..... dnt knoe how
over all game is nice,great graphics
one more thing u ll get all tekken endings in this but u have to unlock that :P
Tekken Tag 2 has the largest roster of characters in any fighting game.
The tag mechanics are tough to master especially those involving two characters of the same team on the screen at the same time but rewarding if you can master them
This is not something for a casual gamer, it's tough master and requires some practice to get the moves right.
This game was given a rating of 39/40 by Famitsu magazine, which is known for tough reviews.
It's action packed and really fun to play.
The online multiplayer is much better than the previous Tekken titles.
All in all fighting game fans should try out this game.
thanks to flipkart for awesome deal plus super fast delivery (they actually delivered it 1 day before the day of delivery they had promised...:P;))
and this is the best tekken till date... tekken 6 was awesome but this one just nailed it.. awesome gameplay, graphics, dlcz, online gameplay experience is ok but its tons of fun to play multiplayer mode with frnz, lookout for new interesting characters and finally the TAG thats what its meant for... superb, awesome, beautiful and very addictive.... a must have for fighting genre enthusiast...

The phrase 'Peace and security' in 1 Thess 5.3 has traditionally been understood as an echo of the OT prophetic warnings (Jer 6.14; Ezek 13.10; Mic 3.5) against false claims of peace. Stronger evidence exists, however, that the apostle is making use of a popular theme of the imperial Roman propaganda machine. The Romans vigorously promoted themselves through various public media as those who provided not only 'peace' but also 'security', thereby providing a closer parallel to Paul's statement in 5.3 than any OT text. This essay reviews four kinds of evidence—numismatic, monumental, inscriptional and literary—in order to demonstrate in a decisive fashion that the phrase 'peace and security' involves an allusion not to prophetic warning but to Roman political propaganda.

You have the team. They're experienced and professional, but they're not Windows experts. Or, perhaps they know Windows, but they're not experts at one particular aspect of system software. Sometimes all it takes is an extra hand from someone who's "been there" to get things moving. Systems software development can be a virtual jungle. Some APIs are undocumented. Some are documented, but don't really work the way you'd expect - or want. Plus, the information available is limited. What to do...?
That's where OSR comes in. We know Windows, from the source level out. As a result we can - and regularly do - figure out how to accomplish complex tasks for clients who would have been struggling for months trying to climb over a wall. After all, most things are easy if you know how to do them, and the way to get good at something is to do it a LOT. This is why we specialize in Windows system software - remember it's ALL we do.
In consultative engagements, OSR works with clients to determine needs and provide options to proceed with OSR, or suggest alternative solutions external to OSR. Maybe this is spending a few days in a conference room "whiteboarding" a product architecture; maybe it's a code review of an developed solution that is planned for a beta period; maybe it's acting as an "hired gun" on retainer as needed; maybe it's root-cause analysis on a critical issue in the field; maybe it's due-diligence work or offering subject matter expertise for legal issues. The point is, "consulting" assistance from OSR can be had in many forms, but no matter how it is acquired, you can be assured that we'll be bringing our definitive expertise, industry experience, and solid reputation to bear on our engagement with you.
Custom Development
There are a lot of contract programmers you could hire (Well, maybe not that many really good ones, but enough to be scary). But why should you pay someone by the hour to come in on contract and sit in on meetings and drink your coffee and attempt to solve your problem?
At OSR, we pride ourselves on knowing what we know, and knowing what we don't know too. Hey, there are lots of types of solutions to be developed in the Windows space, and we can't and don't want to be experts in them all. If we're not the right group to engage with, we'll tell you. Plain and simple. Our work is not "just another engagement" taken on to pay the bills. If we're not convinced we can make the solution you desire a success, we're going to suggest alternatives or respectfully pass on the opportunity and try to point you to someone else. THAT's what you should expect from your outsourcing partner. Honesty and integrity with the experience to back it up.
So, what does a custom development project with OSR "look" like? Almost all OSR solutions are proposed on a firm, fixed-price basis. Clients will know the cost of a project phase and deliverable dates before they have to make a commitment. Include a warranty, documentation, source code with rights to redistribute and that's a typical project for OSR. Ask us to help transition the code to your team and we'll provide you several options from training on up through annual maintenance.
Are we the right group for you? Only one way to find out. Just ask.

huh so im trying to think if paizo has opened up a way to have a player character have an at will, unlimited use, SA or SLA ability.
has anyone looked in to this? i would be really interested if someone found a way to do it.
Have you spotted one or are you just fishing?
there are a few examples for this:
a paladin has detect evil at will, and a number of monster races have at will abilities, so with the advanced race guide you can create one.
There are some feats in ultimate magic that give you some spells as SLA, but not unlimited use
hope this helps
Cantrips and Orsirions are, more or less, at will.
Also, there is ways to get a cantrip as an at will spell-like ability.
There's the "Spell-Like Ability, At-Will" racial trait you can give custom races, but it's in the Monstrous power-level, so most PCs wouldn't have access to it.
That's pretty much the only one i know, aside from what some classes give anyway.
There are a few other ways to get a 1/day SLA though.
thanks for your help, i was trying to remake a 3.5 character who used a 1st level spell at will, i couldnt figure out a way to do it myself. thanks ill keep trying to see if i can do it without trying to build my own race.
What was the spell?
What was the race?
Sounds pretty OP to me, especially if it's CLW, magic missile, or something similar (useful at all levels).

But if the spell is Crafter's Curse or Play Instrument...
Witch Hexes aren't quite SLA's, but a lot of them are at-will and could be used to simulate certain spells, like Sleep.
Drow nobles can cast dancing lights, deeper darkness, faerie fire, feather fall, and levitate at will or a regular drow with three feats.
Drow nobles have a level adjustment and aren't normally available to players as a character race. Your point about regular drow and the feats is valid, but you do have to get to level 5 first.
Paladins get detect undead at will, druids get alter self at will (as well as wild shape and some others), and many other classes grant at will powers at some point throughout their levels. As for getting a SLA at will from your race at level one, it basically doesn't happen. You can take a trait to get stabalize at will, but that's the sort of thing I don't expect to have a big impact by being at will instead of x/day. I definitely wouldn't expect anything that gave a character unlimited uses of a 1st level spell from his/her race. That would make your race better at casting than many casters at 1st level. You could ask the wizard to use comprehend languages, but the Racethegmmade can cast it at will, and the wizard only gets 4 if he's specialized, has 20+ int, and prepared it in all slots available.
Just to note on the Drow Noble comment: There is no such thing as Level Adjustment in Pathfinder. A more powerful race ups the average effective level of the party it is in for purposes of determining XP earned and challenges appropriate to the party, iirc.
This is what I was refering to.
An Air Elementalist Wizard (from the APG) can cast Feather Fall on him or herself at will... Only helps if Feather Fall happens to be the 1st level spell you were after, of course... ;)

My buddy, Alan Perlman, recently notified me of a company called Zumbox which essentially gives everyone in the US an online email address tied to your physical mailing address. The need stems from a very real problem: sending snail mail is wasteful, expensive and inefficient. An online mechanism which can solve this problem is clearly a nice thing to have. That said, I think this service is programmed to be unnecessary.
- What's wrong with just an email address? Zumbox claims that businesses have their customers' mailing address but not their email address. There are 3 things wrong with this:
- It assumes that Zumbox is somehow gonna have better success getting a businesses' customers to sign up for it's service than a business will have getting the direct email address itself.
- Businesses are already collecting their customers' email addressses as well as physical mailing address, thus skipping out on the middleman. My business doesn't even have a mailing address for our customers. The only way we contact our customers is via email.
- Businesses that aren't collecting email addresses of their consumers aren't doing it because they can't collect them, but rather that their systems aren't set up for it, they aren't technically minded or they just plain don't want to.
- Since Zumbox functions as a mapping service between your inefficient mailing address and your highly efficient email address, it still has the inefficiency of being tied to a physical location that doesn't travel with you when you move, thus creating one more thing you have to do when y ou change your address.
- Who wants yet another place to check your mail online? I've already got my work email and my personal email, facebook, twitter…
- Sometimes people prefer physical mail. Flipping through a physical magazine is just nicer than seeing it online sometimes. The feeling and smell of a personal letter that's suffered the journey of hundreds of miles has something deeply satisfying about it; for instance, I receive a weekly letter from my grandmother which I treasure unlike any email I ever receive.
The one function that has the potential to be great is the ability to consolidate and pay all of your bills from one spot. I'm pretty sure this has been tried before and has it's share of problems (namely that most businesses that consistently send bills already have this system in place), but I think it's nice. Maybe if they target midsize businesses that can't build out these systems themselves, Zumbox could work and find it's niche.

Annual Report 2001-2002
A message from the Chairman Suk-Won Kim
"I am sure that all members of our worldwide Scout Movement join me in extending deep and sincere sympathy to everyone that was struck by the catastrophe of September 11th that shattered or changed so many lives in the United States and around the world…"
With these warm words, our Honorary President, His Majesty, Carl XVI Gustaf, King of Sweden addressed the 44th Baden-Powell Fellowship Event which was rescheduled following the tragic events which changed the world.
Scouts throughout the world have been struck by these events, and have taken time to refocus on the core values on which their Movement is based – international friendship and understanding, community service, and a spirit of confidence in the face of an
even more difficult challenge. (...)
So, this annual report of the World Scout Foundation focuses on facing these challenges – with these essential core values of Scouting, what is the future strategy in a world which has changed forever.
I firmly believe that the world needs Scouting more than ever. It is our role to enable Scouts throughout the world to maximise their impact. Our "bottom line" will measure that.
Thank you for your continued support to Scouting!

How many of you saw Cathay Pacific's announcement that it's putting new seats in business class? It seemed relatively quiet on this side of the world, but it is big news. Possibly the biggest news is that Cathay is following the lead of . . . US Airways!?! That's right, it's the reverse herringbone. What do you think?

The outboard seats are gently angled towards the windows, giving passengers a perfect view.
———————————-That's nice, people like to see out the window during the day and when on the ground. The airlines that angle the seats with your back to the windows maybe didn't think that out to well. At least that's what I think.
Written by chris on December 10, 2010. Reply
I was all excited to hear about this until I learned that new biz class won't be on the 747′s flying to/fr SFO for quite a while. Wah! Near term plans are for B777 and A330 only.
Written by explanethings on December 10, 2010. Reply
If Cathay are as previous, it'll be years before all the fleet is refitted. Have the finished installing the previous incarnation fleetwide?
Let's hope this latest version fits people other than Asian sizes. Last time I flew CX J Class it was horrendous. If you're over 6ft, you're screwed!

These seats are getting to look more like what the doctor tells you to lay over and relax…..
Written by papa on December 10, 2010. Reply
This new seat overhaul at least demonstrates some serious commitment to improvement backed by serious cash investment.
Cathay has had lie-flat seats in for long-haul Business Class for a few years now, but they were criticized quite a bit for being very narrow and sort of coffin like in their herringbone config.
I cannot comment on the new seat since I have not seen it, but it looks like (a) they may be listening to consumers and (b) trying to implement continuous improvement rather than waiting till the next generation seating concepts.
Written by Sanjeev M on December 10, 2010. Reply
Personally, I have never travelled in any class higher than Economy (or World Traveller Plus on BA). But at 6'2 I feel that business class is about the flat bed. It's not about how much space you have to work, individual light lamps, etc…
So I would think having a business class configuration of 2-3-2 on the A330/A340 and 2-4-2 on the 777 (basically one less seat per row than economy) is fine. After all, it should be somewhat affordable. People over at airliners.net were outraged over Turkish Airlines 2-3-2 config on the new 777-300ER's but I think it's fine.
For that matter, whenever I walk past Club World on BA, that arrangement looks fairly good to me and still manages to be 8 across on a 777.
Anyway, sorry for the long rant but just thought I'd throw that out there, no offense to anyone.
Written by Rob L Austin on December 11, 2010. Reply
Cathay's First may be at at par or slightly better than Singapore's, but their business is way behind in the Asian airline race now. Of course, compared to US carriers, I'd opt for Cathy even in the current "coffins." It's still better than sliding to the floor on other "flat" beds where you can't sleep at all.
Written by Dan on December 13, 2010. Reply
As someone who just flew almost 20 hours in those seats (one way!) my biggest complaint is the seat width. Re-directing/-aligning the seats isn't that noteworthy to me, at least on those particular flights. But as a side sleeper, the seats were pretty danged narrow, and I really couldn't cross my legs sitting up. That's a bigger deal, and hopefully these new wider seats will rectify that.

For a brief period in the 70's and 80's New York was the place to be for football's biggest stars. The New York Cosmos were at the forefront of the North American Soccer League's (NASL) attempt to bring the game into the hearts and homes of the American public.
Their main tactic was to bring the most famous names in world football to Giants Stadium and hope the fans would follow. Established in 1971 the Cosmos were backed by then Warner Bros. president Steve Ross, giving them the financial clout to attract players like Franz Beckenbauer, Carlos Alberto and of course the great Pele.
Although many of the stars who came to play in America were nearing the end of their careers, the sight of so many greats in such a dream team was quite something. As were the glamorous tales that accompanied the club's heyday in the late 70's with rumours of legendary nights in the 'Studio 54' nightclub and players being treated more like rock stars than athletes.
In their history the Cosmos won five NASL Championships and seven division titles but unfortunately the fairytale could not last forever and the club folded after a whirlwind 14 years. Warner sold the Cosmos in the early 80's and the new owners were unable to match the investment put in previously. At the same time the NASL was in trouble and closed in 1984 after over-extending itself. The Cosmos continued for another year as part of the Major Indoor Soccer League before dissolving in 1985.
The club was at its peak in 1977 with Pele and Italian striker Giorgio Chinaglia leading the line and World Cup winners Franz Beckenbauer and Carlos Alberto marshalling the defence. That was Pele's last season before retiring and fittingly the Cosmos scooped the NASL Outdoor Championship. After his final game for the club, Pele's number ten shirt was retired in honour of his services to the club.

Both grant you a year of unlimited admission—including express entry through the mythical members' entrance—and, if you travel in an especially large school, both grant up to four additional guests half-off entry when accompanied by a cardholding member (per day). Although prices vary, today's deal offers you a year's access to the aquarium at a cost comparable to a single day's admission for the same number of people.
Rare-breed horses trot down green, tree-dappled streets, past rustic wood and brick buildings. As cracking drums and chirping fifes echo off ancient streets and the gnarled trunks of trees, a solider in a red jacket, boots, and military epaulets addresses a group of visitors clad in baseball caps and T-shirts. The historical interpreters and other staff of Colonial Williamsburg bring the restored 18th-century town's history into the modern era through live demonstrations, walking tours, and educational programs. The living museum town sprawls across a 301-acre Revolutionary City, which encompasses designated historic structures such as the opulent Governor's Palace, Capitol building, and Magazine, many of which are perched atop their original foundations. Within some buildings, interpreters explain the significance of various period furnishings such as medicine cabinets and original 1770s Twister mats.
Visitors can witness live demonstrations of blacksmithing, shoemaking, and carpentry in Williamsburg's 19 historic trades shops, or traverse galleries inside DeWitt Wallace Decorative Arts Museum, Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Folk Art Museum, and Bassett Hall. In warmer weather, the Revolutionary City's manicured gardens bloom with period-appropriate plantings, and a garden maze confounds explorers with winding hedges and resident gnomes who insist on reading maps upside down. On tours, guides lead visitors through archaeological collections or into a reenacted courtroom session, and at Great Hopes Plantation, interpreters provide glimpses into the lives and plight of African-American slaves. Other seasonal activities span hands-on children's programs, Revolutionary War reenactments, and fife and drum performances.

Acclaimed singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Carrie Rodriguez will embark on an extensive U.S. tour in support of her fifth full-length solo album Give Me All You Got, set for release January 22 on Ninth Street Opus. The LP is the follow-up to 2010's Love and Circumstance, which No Depression hailed as "an album you do not want to miss." In anticipation Rodriguez recently stopped by West Virginia Public Broadcasting's "Mountain Stage" to record a set that is scheduled to begin airing nationwide March 15. Check local listings or see mountainstage.org for details. A list of confirmed tour dates-including a stop at SXSW 2013 as part of the Thirty Tigers showcase-is below.
Produced by Lee Townsend (Bill Frisell, Loudon Wainwright III, Kelly Joe Phelps) at Berkeley's Fantasy Studios and mastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound NYC, the record also features frequent collaborator Chip Taylor in a set that marries Rodriguez's Texas background with a decade spent in Brooklyn, NY. "These new original tunes run the gamut of intense emotions, from heartache to budding new love, from Betrayal to resigned acceptance, and finally to the sheer joy of simply being alive," she says. "For the first time, I feel that the passionate spirit of my live show has truly been captured in a studio album."
Born in Austin, TX and raised on a broad range of pop, traditional and classical music, Rodriguez began training on the violin at age five while simultaneously developing a taste for fiddling under the influence of her father, singer/songwriter David Rodriguez. She was awarded a scholarship to Oberlin Conservatory of Music and moved on to graduate from the prestigious Berklee College of Music. Chip Taylor (of "Wild Thing" and "Angel of the Morning" fame) discovered Rodriguez at the 2001 SXSW music conference and invited her to play fiddle with him, asking her soon after to join him as both a singer and collaborator. She has recorded with John Mayer, Patty Griffin and Los Lonely Boys, and performed live with Lyle Lovett, John Prine, Bill Frisell, Alejandro Escovedo, Los Lobos and Ricki Lee Jones, among others. Last year she toured the U.S. with Jeff Bridges, with whom she also appeared on "Austin City Limits," "TODAY," "LIVE with Regis and Kelly," "The Colbert Report" and "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno."

Almost all the children are from language other than English and low-socio-economic backgrounds. While all the children are Muslims, the staff is forty per cent non-Muslim, and this is a deliberate policy of the School Board to ensure that the school employs only the best available teachers. With a very strong emphasis on Literacy and Numeracy, most students excel at school and almost 100 per cent of Year 12 students gain university entry. In 2010 there were 75 students in Year 12 and all of them gained university entry, and in 2011 there are 113 students in Year 12 and all are expected to qualify for university. The school's NAPLAN results are excellent, especially in Numeracy;for example, 74 %t of 187 year 9 students are in the top two bands with 47 % in Band 10.
In addition to participating in sports in the school, the children play with other schools every week. They also take part in a wide range of extra-curricular activities with other schools and organisations. Caring teachers, counsellors, and welfare co-ordinators attempt to provide the best education possible to the children in an environment conducive to learning. The parent, student and teacher satisfaction with the school is very high. There is a very big demand for enrolment places at the school, and this shows the high regard that the general community has for the school. Our school is a showcase of an Islamic school in Australia. In April 2011, the school opened two campuses at Hoxton Park with 78 children and at Beaumont Hills with 31 children.
First Term: Tuesday 29th January to Friday 12th April
Second Term: Monday 22nd April to Friday 28th June
Third Term: Monday 15th July to Friday 27th September
Fourth Term: Tuesday 8th October to Friday 6th December
Term dates are subject to change and parents will be notified accordingly.

Watch the slide show above. It will give you insight as to what and how I like to shoot. The photographs above were taken with a number of different cameras. I don't indicate which camera was used for each photograph because It doesn't matter. A photograph should be appreciated on its own merit, not because of the camera used to take the photograph.
Photography is my hobby. I have no specific photographic interest. I photograph any and everything. I am always looking for something to photograph, from a macro to a seascape. I love color. I love black & white. I have used a DSLR, a rangefinder and mirrorless cameras. I shoot for my own enjoyment and share my photography with others because photography is meant to be shared. What good is any photograph unless others have the opportunity to see it?
Photography gives me something to look forward to every day. I know there is always some thing, some place or someone just waiting to be photographed. I just have to take the time to see the opportunity. It has always been my belief that the ability to see the shot is more important than the gear used to take the shot. I hope you enjoy your visit to my site and my photography. Jim Radcliffe
