We lost two more New Jersey teens last week in a motor vehicle crash in Jackson. The driver, a 17-year-old high school honor student was traveling to a band competition with her 15-year-old sister when they hit a mini-van head-on. Both were killed. The week before that four teens died in a crash on New York's Southern Parkway. The driver, a 17-year-old and the sole survivor, is a permit holder with limited driving experience. (While police continue to investigate both crashes, speed, recklessness and a lack of seat belt use are considered key factors.)
As the leader of the New Jersey Teen Safe Driving Coalition and the mother of a teenage driver, I'm devastated every time I learn of another fatal crash. Despite having worked in traffic safety for nearly 30 years and knowing the risk for teens -- four times greater than for any other age group on the road -- I can't help but take it personally. And while some of you reading this may be thinking teen crashes and the resulting injuries and fatalities are inevitable, a kind of right-of-passage, I can't and won't accept that.
We have the tool to address the number one killer of teens. I'm talking about Graduated Driver Licensing and during National Teen Driver Safety Week (and every other day of the year), I urge every parent to learn about and use it. New Jersey has what is considered one of the more progressive GDL programs in the nation thanks to an older licensing age (full licensure isn't granted until the teen is at least 18), a one-passenger limit (which doesn't include an exemption for siblings), an 11 p.m. curfew, a total ban on all electronic devices, and a seat belt requirement for all vehicle occupants. Additionally, we provide a means for police to identify GDL holders -- a decal -- to aid in enforcing these proven provisions.
New Jersey's GDL program has been in effect since 2001 and since then teen crashes have dropped by more than 20 percent, while fatalities have been cut in half. But imagine how many more teen crashes could be prevented and lives saved if every parent not only understood and supported the provisions of the GDL program, but enforced them.
Sure parents are busy. I get it, I'm a parent, too. But it's incumbent upon us to make the time to learn about and put into practice something that can help our teens survive one of the most dangerous times of their life. Contrary to what parents may think, it's car crashes (not kidnappers, terrorists or predators) that are injuring and killing our kids. GDL works to address the number one killer of children, teens and young adults by giving parents the tools to help their teens build skill, while minimizing the things that cause them the greatest risk -- driving late at night; distraction caused by other teen passengers, cell phones, texting and other devices; as well as lack of seat belt use.
Sure your teen may be tremendously smart, athletic, artistic and/or sensible, but driving is the great equalizer. Teens due to brain development (we're not talking book smarts here) all start at the same place when they get behind the wheel. Which means it's incumbent upon us to give them the best start possible. That begins with GDL.
The easiest way to learn about the GDL program is to log on to njteendriving.com. The website will walk you through the how's and why's of the program. I also urge you to take advantage of parent/teen driving education programs that are offered through many schools and community-based settings. As the facilitator for the "Share the Keys" program, a free 75-minute orientation developed by the New Jersey Division of Highway Traffic Safety and Kean University with guidance from the experts at the Center for Injury Research and Prevention at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, I have helped thousands of families not only gain a better understanding of why teens crash, but what they can do about it. (Want to bring the program to your school or community? The Coalition can help you do that.)
The vast majority of car crashes are preventable and while immaturity coupled with inexperience is the root-cause of most teen-related incidents, knowledgeable and involved parents make the difference. Learn about the risks for teens and how GDL works to address that risk, then get to work helping your teen not only secure a license, but build skill so he becomes a good driver for life.
Look at it this way, you've invested thousands of hours and dollars helping your child reach his teen years -- an exciting time not only for him, but you. You've clothed, nurtured, inoculated, educated and done so many other things to help him succeed. Not investing the time or effort into learning about and leveraging the GDL program for all its worth has the potential to wipe all of that out. Are you willing to risk that?

Pam- This is a great article and parents play the "key" role here. I believe the GDL rules will help save lives, but only if they are followed. The stickers, on the other hand, will not prevent a death and continue to be used to profile young drivers.
10:57 am on Monday, October 15, 2012
Whenever I read one of these articles about keeping your kids off booze and drugs or making them safe drivers, what is rarely mentioned is how parents should be providing the proper role model. It's always about making sure your teens follow the rules and the laws, and rarely about following the examples that their parents provide. For example; provisional driver are banned from using any electronic devices while driving to avoid distractions, but how many parents provide a proper example by also foregoing all electronic devices when driving? Parents tell their kids to never drink and drive, but how often have kids seen their parents drive after drinking a glass of wine, or a beer or two?

I'm not sure if it was an article that Pam wrote a few months ago but there was a pretty strong debate with regard to the decals. I am all for educating our children and and if the stats from the GDL that have been presented as a direct result of their work are accurate, that is fantastic. I am still unsure if I want a decal on my kid's car that will alert not only the police, but the rest of the world as to how young they are. I made a similar comment int the last debate that if my 17 year old daughter (or son) were driving home from their after school job at 10pm....would I want that red flag of "I am young and inexperienced" on their car? My gut still tells me no.
8:35 am on Tuesday, October 16, 2012
The decals are worthless for identifying provisional drivers. I'm teaching my 16 year old to drive now, and I just leave the decals on my car all the time. I see decals on cars all the time that are driven by people my age. When I pointed this out to the police officer at the school who was giving the driving seminar, he admitted that not all cars that have the decals would be provisional drivers. I then asked him if this didn't defeat the whole purpose of the law (ie; identifying provisional drivers). He didn't have a good answer for that.
5:28 pm on Tuesday, October 16, 2012
I have a provisional driver not donning red stickers. I thought about just putting them on all of the cars in our household but decided it was not worth the risk of my young daughter actually being the driver, alone at night...

Ms. Fischer has made an excellent case to raise the driving age to 21.

Good thought provoking article. This video (warning: It's Rated R) provides a somewhat humorous insight into one young female driver's degree of focus on the task of driving: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0i_5YBnQdac If even a fraction of it is realistic (and I suspect that it is), it explains a lot about why there are so many young people in accidents.

Hey all! I was wondering if anyone has heard of/has had any experiences with DVA Talent in Austin? I did a forum search and nothing came up -- and I can't find too much about the agency online, despite the fact that they've been in Austin for 10+ years. Veronica seemed very nice but I was hoping to get some more insight... | |||

UPPER MERION The statistics about human trafficking and child prostitution are chilling.
Every year in the U.S., 100,000 children are involved in prostitution.
A study of five U.S. cities concluded 300,000 domestic minors were involved in prostitution.
In Pennsylvania, 12 percent of those involved in prostitution are male, 74 female and 14 percent unknown. Twenty-one percent are minors.
The average age of entry into prostitution is 13-years-old.
Seventy-two percent of girls in substance abuse and probation diversion programs have a history of commercial sex. All identified have a pimp.
Rachael Yudt, a licensed social worker and the chairwoman of the Montgomery County Anti-trafficking Coalition, and a coalition member who requested anonymity presented a two-hour program on human trafficking to more than 40 residents at the Upper Merion township building Wednesday night.
Force, fraud or coercion are three ways that victims are forced to participate in prostitution, Yudt said.
A news video was shown about a Chicago man who tattooed women who worked in his massage parlor and forced them to become prostitutes. In another case, Mexican men brought women to the U.S. after fathering a child with them. The children were held by the mens relatives in Mexico while the women were forced to sell themselves in the U.S.
We have done several cases in Norristown and Philadelphia, the coalition member said. They will rent out a house and put several girls in there. Everyone in the community knows what it is.
Sex trafficking takes place in houses, escort services, bars and strip clubs, online, in the street and at truck stops.
Facebook and MySpace can be used by sex traffickers to find new victims, Yudt said.
The presentation estimated that three women could generate $327,000 in a year for their pimp, and the pimp life has been glamorized by the mainstream culture.
The game or the life are terms for prostitution. Street action is prostitution on the street.
Gangs are involved in running prostitution rings, the coalition member said.
The victims of sex trafficking often come from a difficult home life. The girls are groomed by a pimp and promised gifts and attention. Many girls are addicted to drugs for control by their pimps.
We have as many as 2.8 million children living on the street and 70 percent of that number are involved in prostitution, Yudt said.
Yudt said that Pennsylvania suffered from a lack of awareness of the problem and responses to the problem.
In October 2012, a National Human Trafficking Hotline number, 1-888-3737-888, was adopted by state law to be posted at all state welcome centers, truck stops, airports, bus stations, strip clubs, adult entertainment stores, taverns under the smoking ban, nuisance bars and personal service establishments.
Three Web sites that have information about the problem are www.polarisproject.org; www.sharedhope.org and www.gems-girls.org.
Human trafficking is defined as sex trafficking in which an employer uses force, fraud or coercion to demand an adult participate in commercial sex and other activities. Under federal law, however, if the victim is under 18, no force, fraud or coercion is necessary for trafficking to take place. A business card from the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement on trafficking pointed out that human trafficking is exploitation-based and human smuggling is transportation-based.
Education is what this coalition is working on now, Yudt said. It is Slavery and Human Trafficking Prevention Awareness Month in January. On Friday, it will be Human Trafficking Awareness day.

I always think the same about my grandparent's home, they move quite a bit, and they always redecorate, but no matter what, there is always that same feeling in each surrounding. I suppose it is the people who make the home, not the house.

We're thinking about selling our house and are considering finishing our basement. We received a quote for $27,000 to do the job, and I'm wondering if it will add enough value to our house to justify doing it. It would add a bedroom, bathroom, living area, and about 1200 finished square feet to our 3 bedroom, 2 bath, ranch style house.
Do you think we will turn a profit on the money we spend to finish it, or are we just hoping to break even? Or is there a risk that we could even lose the money?

I hope I get to watch it, we're just now put into a tornado watch until 9 tonight. The weather channel on the computer since yesterday said today & tonight is severe with possible tornados.
Hubby just called me up telling me if we get a warning, I have to call him up because he doesn't have a radio for weather info where he's working. He's working 30-45 mins away from home & in an area that's more prone to tornado's than here at our house area. Time to turn on the weather radio & hear it all day long.

Sen. Cornyn Proposes Cutting Funding To U.S. Fish And Wildlife Service
By: Karl Rundgren
Updated: March 21, 2013
Cornyn filed an amendment to the Senate Budget on Thursday that would cut funding being used for determining whether species should be listed on the Endangered Species List.
Cornyn says that the current process uses "arbitrary decision deadlines."
Cornyn also says that the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is trying to list animals with limited data.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has proposed that the Lesser Prairie Chicken be listed as threatened.
While the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service has extended the public comment period on the potential listing, they still plan on making a decision on the listing in September.
The Lesser Prairie Chicken has a habitat in the High Plains region which stretches the Permian Basin on up to Western Kansas and Eastern Colorado.
If the species listed as threatened, federal protections of the habitat could negatively affect wind energy, oil and gas and ranching in the area.
Texas Governor Rick Perry, New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez, Kansas Governor Sam Brownback, Oklahoma Governor Mary Fallin, and Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper released a joint statement opposing the proposal to list the species as threatened in January 2013.
U.S. Representatives Randy Neugebauer and Mike Conaway have also spoken out against the potential listing of the lesser prairie chicken as threatened.

Bill to Regulate Kansas Strip Clubs Resurfaces
Associated Press - Tue 11:15 AM 01/29/2013
The measure would regulate where adult businesses can be located, and ban lap dances and dancing onstage in various levels of undress.
A bill that seeks to regulate strip clubs and other adult businesses in Kansas has resurfaced in the Kansas House.
The measure would regulate where adult businesses can be located, and ban lap dances and dancing onstage in various levels of undress.
A hearing on the measure is planned for Feb. 14 in the House Federal and State Affairs Committee.
But Rep. Arlen Siegfreid, an Olathe Republican, says he's unsure how eager lawmakers will be to vote on it and it's unclear if the committee will work on the bill this year.
When the bill was considered in Kansas in 2010 and 2011, it passed the House but died in the Senate.
Associated Press information from: The Topeka Capital-Journal

3. | Buddhism | ||
Buddhism is a religion based on the teachings of Buddha. Buddha taught that 1) life permates around suffering, 2) humanity suffers because of their desires, 3) to overcome desires, one must obtain nirvana, and 4) to obtain nirvana, one must follow the eight-fold path (Right Views, Right Resolve, Right Speech, Right Conduct, Right Livelihood, Right Effort, Right Mindfulness, Right Concentration). These are known as the four noble truths. Buddha accepted the concepts of karma and samsara, but rejected the idea of the Brahman and atman. Buddha also taught different understandings of reality and psychology which was based on the idea of anicca; that reality is not permanent and predictable but rather transient and changing. Thus all things flow according to cause and effect. The idea that there is a self, or ego, is an illusion. Buddhism teaches anatman or anatta, No Self. Acting on this illusion of the Self leads to dissatisfaction in existence - Dukkha. Buddhism teaches that karmic cause and effect leads to the generation of energy, a process called dependent co-arising. The workings of karma cause those energies to coalesce as five bundles of energy called skandhas. The skandhas are: Body (rupa), Perception (jamjna), Feelings (vedana), Inherent Impulses (karmic predispositions, samskaras), Consciousness/Reasoning (vijnana). These are always in flux and disperse at death. Karma causes them to reform as a new existence unless the chain of cause and effect is broken.
1. | buddhism | ||
A teaching by Siddhartha Gautama "The Buddha"(563 - 483 B.C) that teaches that eradication of the "self" illusion, extinguishment of material attachments and eradication of sensual cravings is the path to liberation (nirvana). Buddhism is perhaps the religion with the strongest scientific backing, with Albert Einstein once famously saying that Buddhism was the religion he favored most. It is believed that The Buddha referred to sub atomic particles and intra atomic forces long before any Western scientist. Some argue that "Buddhism" is not really a religion as it does not require worship to a God. To the great credit of Buddhism, not a drop of blood has been shed in the name of The Buddha, in the faith's 2500 year history.
2. | buddhism | ||
Buddhism firstly does not believe in the existence of an omnipotent being i.e. God. Instead, there is a concept of, if you will, the universal law. To better understand this, think of laws of physics (like inertia), those things that all physical things abide by, but we simply do not know why.
All beings on this Earth are bound to the 'cycle of suffering'. Suffering does not necessarily mean it must be painful or you must not like it, but it means that they are worldly things. i.e. by being bound to these things, you are 'suffering' as in you are not free and you will not find true peace. If you die, you will be reincarnated to suffer through whatever you deserve depending on your karma in the past life. Buddhism believes in freeing oneself from the otherwise neverending worldly suffering through detaching oneself from worldly things. Buddhism says you will never cease to feel angry, jealous, happy, or whatever as long as you are attached to worldly things like pleasure, love, and hate. Attachment to physical things also contribute to this suffering cycle. All the things that you see, hear, feel, touch, and taste everyday are all created by your brain, so there is no knowing that they are real and true. Thus, it is fair to say Buddhism is about freeing the mind. When you meditate, you sit still, close your eyes, and clear your mind. This is so that you are less likely bound by 'outside' things, and you can focus on understanding the facts of life and freeing the ... |

Buddhism is a religion which has its beginnings with Siddharta Gautama, a prince who gave up material possessions in order to meditate, always searching for the reasons of life. He came up with the Four Noble Truths and the Eightfold Path, things which also Buddhists live by. Siddharta became known as the Buddha, and despite those fat, bald little Buddhas you may have seen, looked nothing like them. Buddhism generally calls for a passive way of life, giving up material possessions in the search for truth and enlightenment. This is usually done through hours and hours of meditation.
5. | Buddhism | ||
The only peaceful religion in the world Buddhism says dont kill people
6. | Buddhism | ||
Buddhism is a religion (not just a "philosophy") practiced by millions of people, primarily in Southeast Asia, China, Japan, and (increasingly) in the U.S. It is actually the most diverse family of religions, and the only major religion never to have sponsored a holy war. Founded by Siddhartha Gautama in northern India in the 6th Century B.C.E., Buddhism teaches that life is suffering, that the suffering is caused by desire and other delusions, and that overcoming these delusions will extinguish the suffering.
Most Buddhists believe in reincarnation, and strive to achieve Nirvana (enlightenment) and thus get off the 'wheel of rebirth' (in other words, cease being reincarnated). This can be interpreted as "nonexistence," or as graduating to a higher plane of existence -- being reunited with the universe itself. Buddhism neither believes nor disbelieves in God; it is simply not considered an important question. But Buddhists do believe in the soul and afterlife (reincarnation). Buddhism is the most philosophical, contemplative, and psychologically oriented of all the major religions.
7. | Buddhism | ||
An offshoot of Brahminism/Vedism taught by the Indian Prince Gautama Siddhartha, which declared that there was no permanent self (Atman) and that liberation from suffering was to be found not by worshipping gods but by escaping from the cycle of birth and death. According to Gautama Buddha, suffering and rebirth are caused by attachment to things which are devoid of independent existence and thus impermanent.
While generally classified as a religion, Buddhism is probably more accurately described as a spiritual path. However, many Buddhist sects contain strong religious elements. Buddha himself told his disciples that understanding in Buddhism should be established through personal insight rather than faith or revelation. Some modern Buddhists, especially in the West, do not accept the ideas of karma and rebirth (after death) at face value. Sokka Gakkai believers who chant for personal gain and belief-free Western Zen practitioners are Buddhists.

Kumeu Valley Estate wedding by Lene Photography
The days of hiring a photographer for your wedding who also happens to live in your city are long gone. These days couples are flying their favourite photographers to their wedding location from all around the world. And there's another trend happening where photographers are fleeing winter in their home countries and spending a couple of months enjoying summer elsewhere, travelling and shooting a few weddings in what is effectively their off-season. Sounds like the perfect plan to me… perhaps I could convince my hubby to retrain as a photographer so we could do this!! Lene & Victor from Lene Photography are one such couple doing this. They left a cold German winter and spent the summer here and shooting in and around the North Island and whilst here captured Zara & Mark's gorgeous Kumeu Valley Estate wedding.
From the bride: My dress was from Rue de Seine in Newmarket. Once I stepped foot in the store and met Michele and Michael I knew that was it. I'm fussy about fabric quality and what I liked about Rue de Seine was how beautiful the fabrics were (silks and French lace – to die for!) and how much care they put into tailoring. They were incredibly lovely to deal with and went out of their way to make sure that my dress was perfect for me. I have quite simple taste so I went for a dress made of grainy, Dupion silk in ivory with little silk buttons down the back.
We imagined a pretty, festive summer garden wedding with close friends and family, followed by a merry celebration. We had both been to a wedding at Kumeu Valley Estate previously and really liked how relaxed the venue felt. My mum made 80metres of bunting, which we strung around the venue, and little pot plants to line the outdoor aisle.
All of the decorative elements were done on a budget, and because of our three-month engagement (with Christmas in the middle of it and both working in busy full-time jobs) we had to be choosy with what we spent time on. Mark designed and printed all the stationery himself and Mum made bunting and other little bits and pieces to decorate the venue. We had to let go of a few little details and play to our strengths, but it all worked out perfectly and we were blessed with the most beautiful hot summery weather on the day.
My wedding flowers were soft and relaxed – I didn't want anything that looked overdone. Kelly at Blush put together wild, loosely-tied bouquets of David Austen roses, lambs ear, garden roses, small clusters of Gypsophila, Lisianthus blooms in soft pastel tones. For the table settings we used a similar combination of flowers in different glass bottles and vases. The flowers exceeded my expectations.
Focus your energy on thinking about what marriage (the institution of marriage) means to you and why you're doing it, and make sure that it takes up more of your headspace than planning the wedding.
The ceremony was my most memorable moment! I loved walking up the aisle with my proud dad and seeing Mark standing up there waiting for me. It felt so good for both of us to be standing before friends and family and God and making these declarations to each other. Our friends Fraser and Naomi Browne (aka Paper Cranes) sung a few songs during the ceremony and it was just really enjoyable.

Auckland West Coast wedding by Greta Kenyon
I have a serious dose of pretty for you from Greta Kenyon Photography but before I get onto that I have to apologise as I completely forgot to announce the winner of the giveaway!! SO the lucky winner of all these goodies is Eliana from A little bit of Country!! Congratulations Eliana!! If you'd like to send me an email we can work out delivery details.
So back to this gorgeousness below… where to start… there is just so much to say about this beautiful wedding, from the bride's stunning Luci DiBella dress, to the amazing florals by Kelly from Blush, You can also see Lisa & Ant's lovely west coast engagement shoot here. Lisa is a graphic designer so naturally her wedding has style in spades and luckily for us she's sharing some of the details with us…
"From the outset I knew I wanted a unique gown that exuded the glamour of the 1920s, 30s and 40s but I didn't want to limit my search to a particular style. I discovered Luci DiBella's ready-to-wear collection through the wonderful Louise Anderson. From memory my dress was the second or third I tried on and I loved it instantly. My mum and sister were with me also and it was a special moment when we realised we all agreed that the dress was 'the one.'"
"We have a mutual love of the ocean – Ant is a volunteer lifeguard at Piha and I grew up in Hawaii so I love to surf. We've spent lots of time on the West Coast together over the years and it has always been special to us. We were excited to find Cassels, nestled amongst beautiful native bush on the way to Muriwai. The stunning venue spoke for itself so it carried our vision for a relaxing semi-outdoor wedding easily. Our styling incorporated shades of ocean, peach and grey. We named our reception tables after significant places in Piha and each card was attached to a corked glass bottle filled with black Piha sand.
I am a graphic designer so my first project was to design our stationery. I enjoyed odd little jobs like searching for envelopes in the perfect shade of grey! My amazing mum made our flower girl's dress and my grandmother spent hours embroidering tiny flowers onto the sash and sleeves – I'm sure it will become a treasured family heirloom. Mum also made our wedding cake – a tower of white almond lamingtons and our bomboniere – apothecary jars filled with our favourite baking including afghans, yo yo's and oatmeal chocolate chip cookies."
"Our bouquets featured pale grey Dusty Miller leaves, white, peach and blush roses, dahlias and gypsophila. Floral arrangements at the venue consisted of a selection of roses, dahlias and gypsophila displayed in a variety of glass bottles and vases.
We enlisted the talents of dance teacher Aaron Gilmore to help us with our first dance and we had an absolute blast with him in the weeks leading up to the wedding. Aaron had us whirling around the dance floor in no time and we surprised our guests with some great rock 'n' roll!
Trust your own judgement and instincts and having confidence in the decisions you make can save lots of time and worry. Make your wedding day uniquely yours by filling it with the things that you and your partner love. Don't worry about too much about trends or what others might think. Once you start making decisions and sticking to them, everything comes together without too much fuss."

Autumn inspiration by Intertwine
The lovely Kelly from Intertwine – who I was lucky to meet at the A bit more Soul workshop earlier this year – sent in this gorgeous shoot she did Mindy from Twig & Arrow. The shoot took place at Te Rama, a historic estate in Waikanae that will be newly opened for weddings later this year… it looks rather lovely don't you think? I'm loving the muted autumn tones throughout… so pretty! And the gorgeous dress is from Sophie Voon – another Wellington based vendor.

Board#251: Blue Danube
Ok I admit it… I had to pull the hubby in to name this board and Blue Danube is what he came up with! It's a stretch I know but he was rather proud of himself so I had to go with it!! Inspired by the gorgeous image of the bike against the cornflower blue building, I think it works so well with soft blush or peach tones. So so pretty!!

Eminem has slammed Mariah Carey and revealed intimate details of their alleged sexual encounters in his new diss track The Warning.
The rap giant, who claims to have bedded Mariah during a brief relationship before she married husband Nick Cannon (a claim which she denies), is apparently angry at the singer's attempts to diss him in her Obsessed video.
In Mariah's vid, she plays a male stalker that bears a striking resemblance to Mr Mathers. But once she hears the lyrics to Em's incredibly harsh and filthy new joint The Warning, she might wish she hadn't bothered.
"Oh gee, is that supposed to be me in the video with the goatee?" Em raps in the track.
"Wow Mariah, didn't expect ya to go balls out. Bitch, shut the f*ck up before I put all those phone calls out. When you was wilding out. Before Nick, when you was on my dick."
And it gets A LOT worse from there.
Here are the lyrics in all their explicit glory (WARNING: THESE LYRICS CONTAIN SERIOUS FILTH.) Happy Friday!

Providing tropical cyclone best track data in a centralized location to aid our understanding of the distribution, frequency, and intensity of tropical cyclones worldwide.
The intent of the IBTrACS project is to overcome data availability issues, and to freely disseminate this new global dataset. This was achieved by working directly with all the Regional Specialized Meteorological Centers and other international centers and individuals to create a global best track dataset, merging storm information from multiple centers into one product and archiving the data for public use.
One of the goals of the project is for the data processing methods to remain open, such that desired user feedback on data quality is more easily collected. Also, data provenance is completely recorded so all observations and corrections, either through rigorous quality control or user feedback, may be tracked. Data are then provided in various formats given the diversity of the tropical cyclone (TC) data user community.
IBTrACS and the WMO
The World Meteorological Organization Tropical Cyclone Programme has endorsed IBTrACS as an official archiving and distribution resource for tropical cyclone best track data.
Why use IBTrACS?
The IBTrACS project:
- Contains the most complete global set of historical tropical cyclones available
- Combines information from numerous tropical cyclone datasets
- Simplifies inter-agency comparisons by providing storm data from multiple sources in one place
- Provides data in popular formats to facilitate analysis
- Checks the quality of storm inventories, positions, pressures, and wind speeds, passing the information on to the user

Pontiac man assaulted after rear-ending vehicle
A 48-year-old Pontiac man was in critical condition after he rear-ended a vehicle at Baldwin Avenue and Kennett Road and then was assaulted, deputies reported.
According to the Oakland County Sheriff's Office, the man was unconscious and transported by ambulance to McLaren Hospital at 11:44 a.m. Saturday.
Deputies reported that after the man struck the other vehicle with his car, he drove away from the scene. The victim had a suspended driver's license, report deputies. The driver of the car that was rear-ended followed the fleeing car.
When the drivers both stopped, the suspect, a 32-year-old Pontiac man, got out of his vehicle, opened the 48-year-old's door, and repeatedly punched and kicked him, deputies said. The 32-year-old was arrested in connection to the battery, and a 46-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of assisting in the attempted disposal of the car. Both were lodged at Oakland County Jail.
The vehicle that was rear-ended was found behind a house in the 70 block of Putnam Avenue in Pontiac. By the time the vehicle was located, the suspect had already removed the license plate and had the other suspect sell the vehicle to a scrap yard. Both vehicles were impounded.

Volunteer in Kenya
Helping Kenya is a responsible and meaningful volunteering agency, who specialise in matching volunteers to projects where they can make the most difference. Helping Kenya is run by a Kenyan conservationist and his British wife, who have both experienced and built up close relationships with the projects in Africa. Here, at Helping Kenya, we have many different projects that would suit many different volunteers.
Some projects included are aimed at assisting the community. Volunteers can work with children in after school clubs and sports coaching, helping them to realise their full potential and educating the youths of the dangers of HIV/AIDS and substance abuse. Other community projects include recycling, waste management, environmental education and sustainable business development and training for the locals. Helping Kenya also has community projects which are focused on medical and rehabilitation programmes. Either by working in a hospital, or working along-side drug addicts, volunteers are needed for educating the local community on the dangers of HIV/AIDS, counselling ex-addicts, helping to run family planning clinics as well as many other duties. These projects allow for a close interaction with the local people, and really allow an insight into the real Kenya.
Other projects that Helping Kenya supports are conservation projects which are all about protecting the environment and raising awareness of some of Kenya's endangered animals. Projects include whale shark conservation which is a project all about education and research of the sea's severely endangered gentle giant. There is also a dolphin and ecotourism conservation project which looks into the behavioural aspects of the dolphins, as well as educating the locals on these animals and other marine issues. Colobus Monkey conservation is another of Helping Kenya's projects, which looks into the conservation of these animals, through orphan care, veterinary assistance and responding to emergency calls for injured monkeys. Helping Kenya also has a sea turtle project which looks at the protection of the turtles, along with local conservation and education to the locals of these animals. These projects allow volunteers to get close to some of nature's most beautiful animals, and help to protect them and their habitats.
Finally, Helping Kenya has projects which include different orphanages and schools that are not only in need of volunteers to help with the day to day running and caring for the children, but for some of the orphanages, builders, plumbers and electricians are needed to help with the maintenance of the buildings. These projects range in their resources, with some orphanages having very few facilities, to other orphanages that are well resourced and funded. Volunteers will therefore be able to choose how 'basic' they would like to go. As the government does not fund schools or orphanages, these places and children really rely on donations and funding from elsewhere.
All of Helping Kenya's projects are worthwhile, and are not only a great experience which will stay with a volunteer for a life-time, but through a wide range of skills that volunteers will be using, will also look great on a CV. Helping Kenya wants to send out volunteers to projects where they can make the most difference, not only through their help and interaction with the projects, but where their funding will be the most beneficial.

So I did a fresh install, (twice now) for an unrelated partitioning issue, and started the update process.
All with spritz
I did entropy first,
then compiz (the second time, same error twice now)
then select all 230 ish updates and add to queue- process queue.
No problem right? Wrong, it gets about half way through then several errors popped up.
The first time I think was because of the notification applet fork, fixed that with the install as per sticky.
Then it continued a bit, until the screen flashed, compiz seems to have crashed none of the effects work. restarted several times, no joy. The little icon is still in the bar, menu works but effects none... (seen someone else had fix with kwin- no change, also emerald -already was- and compiz manager, changed them back and forth but no change)
But it's much worse than that, I'm now stuck at 120 updates left. can't login to spritz as keyboard only seems to work in firefox and to login to kde or gnome or xfce (all same title bar probs). More over the title bar is missing, and running windows, like this firefox, are not shown in the main panel so I can't minimise. the show desktop button on the minipanel doesn't work.
I can't continue updating, and don't know which update it got to...?
can't run things in terrminal, it doesn't accept key press.
The first time I updated on reinstall, I just did update all, from the get go, it came to the same end stop. goto previous paragraph..
I'm happy to reinstall and start update again, but until I know which thing is breaking it, how do I avoid the same thing happening?
I'm well and truly stuck... any help much appreciated

Published September 1, 2009.
The problem with this dish isn't the vegetables or pasta. It's the sauce.
Most recipes attempt to unify the vegetables and pasta with nothing more than olive oil and a little cheese. The oil makes it greasy, but using less is likely to leave you with a dry and uninspiring mix.
We wanted sweet and complex vegetables and a simple sauce that united the components of this dish.
At the outset, we decided to develop a few different dishes, each focused on getting the best from a single vegetable. We settled on cauliflower (sweet and nutty when roasted), broccoli (browns nicely), and portobello mushrooms (earthy and meaty). We cut the vegetables into slices or wedges to maximize the surface area available for browning; tossed them with oil, salt, pepper, and a little sugar to jump-start caramelization; and roasted them on a preheated baking sheet. (Preheating cuts the cooking time and boosts browning.)
Then it was time to face our central dilemma: the sauce. Cream-based sauces muted the vegetable flavor, and vegetable-based sauces overwhelmed our veggies. The only option that showed promise was a garlicky vinaigrette—we liked the way the garlic bumped up the overall flavor of the dish—but the vinegar was harsh. Cutting back on vinegar meant upping the oil, and then we were back where we started. We needed an ingredient that could replace some of the oil and add both body and complementary flavor, without imparting overt richness. We found a solution right in front of us: garlic, which turns sweet and buttery-soft when roasted. We wrapped garlic heads in foil and roasted them along with the veggies, then squeezed the cloves from their skins and mashed them with extra-virgin olive oil and a little lemon juice. This creamy puree worked beautifully as a sauce, adding an earthy sweetness that complemented all three vegetables. We finished our sauces with herbs, nuts, and cheese that enhanced each vegetable's flavor and texture.
