Natalie From Love Actually — What Does Actress Martine McCutcheon Look Like Now? (PHOTO)
It's hard to believe that Love Actually is already 10 years old! The now-holiday classic hasn't aged a day, and neither has British beauty Martine McCutcheon — the actress who plays Natalie, aka "Plumpy," the lovable, foul-mouthed aid to the new Prime Minister, played by then-heartthrob Hugh Grant.
Martine, now 37, was spotted on December 13 in London after a guest appearance on British daytime show This Morning, where she taped segment called "Martine's Merry Must-Dos," dishing all about her family's festive holiday traditions. The actress looked winter-chic in black pants, a beige wool coat, and an adorable pom pom beanie.
While Martine looks and feels fantastic now, the past few years haven't been so kind to the England native. Not only did she suffer from a variety of health issues including depression and chronic fatigue syndrome, but she also racked up an inordinate amount of debt and was forced to file for bankruptcy. But things are finally looking up for the former EastEnders star, and Martine's even thinking about trying for a baby with hubby Jack McManus.
"It's what I want more than anything, but I'd been so scared that I wouldn't be able to," she revealed in an interview with HELLO! last month. "I thought, 'How can I bring a baby into the world when I'm not well enough to look after myself?' Now I feel I could."
We're so excited about Martine's plans to become a mom — we just hope she leaves herself enough time for that rumored Love Actually sequel!
What do you think of Martine's look these days? Take a trip down memory lane with this adorable clip from Love Actually and then share your comments below!

Dennis Smith
Birth Name: Dennis Smith
Dennis Smith was one of the go-to directors for the popular television drama "NCIS" (CBS 2003- ); his several dozen episodes of the series balance propulsive, adrenaline-fueled storytelling with moments of laugh-out loud comedy. From the beginning of his career, Smith was a student of this singular action-comedy blend: as a camera operator, he cut his teeth on some of the films that defined the style, from Sylvester Stallone and Kurt Russell's buddy-cop team-up "Tango & Cash" (1989) to the full-on slapstick of the enormous hit "Home Alone" (1990). In the early 1990s, he moved into cinematography on the critically-acclaimed small town drama "Picket Fences" (CBS 1992-96); while working on t... Continue Bio >>

Katie Holmes' musical roleKatie Holmes is desperate to land a role in the film version of musical 'Nine'.
The 28-year-old actress reportedly auditioned for the movie's director Rob Marshall on Tuesday (26.06.07) by performing a song and dance routine in his office.
Demi Moore is also said to have auditioned, while Ren?Zellweger and Catherine Zeta-Jones are also being linked to the project -about a film director who is heading towards a nervous breakdown.
Marshall has directed both Ren?and Catherine before in the Oscar-winning 'Chicago'.
Katie is not known for her singing talents, and has previously struggled to stay in tune when performing the song 'On My Own' from long-running hit musical 'Les Miserables' for an episode of 'Dawson's Creek'.
Marshall has previously said: "'Nine' needs to be created specifically for the talent involved, to suit their strengths.
"Casting will be a big issue here, and if commitments complicate things, it will be 2009 before it gets going."
'Nine' has previously enjoyed success on Broadway, with the most recent production in 2003 featuring Hollywood star Antonio Banderas.

1:45 of Z1-2 HR and Z2-3 power. Good ride. Didn't realize how sore my legs were from yesterday until I started to ride. It took a while to get them freed up.

How should one feel after an LTHR test? I did one this morning for the first time in a looooong time. I tried to pace it so I could hold constant but I don't think I went hard enough. It was 15F on my commute so I got a little cold by the end. Well my toes did anyway.
You know those days when you feel like crap on the warm up and you feel even crappier still during the first 20' but you get through it and then you feel like less crap on the second 20' and by the time you finish it you're feeling pretty damn good?

Ok...watching a movie while on the trainer made it much more tolerable. Its a good thing because the mornings around here will be much too cold for me to ride outside for the next 10 days...
today i watched the first half of Pirates of the Caribbean.
Can't find WR's 3 minute all out FTP test thread, but I was reading this blog which I found related/relevant: http://matthewbusche.blogspot.com/20...ding-ears.html
I'm sure when you were getting to the point of blowing nothing was obvious but making the pain stop...I don't know about you but after the fact I always look back at those moments and think 'why didn't I just keep going' but at the time there wasn't enough oxygen on the planet to make me take one more pedal stroke.

Did a 5' test today in the middle of a JRA ride. Felt good to keep the suffer on for the duration -- but at first it didn't feel like I could hold on for the whole thing. Came out at 5.0 W/kg, so I'm reasonably happy with that.
Still trying to look ahead rather than thinking back to before the big infection, but it's been a year now. Sheesh.
1.5hr w/ 6x3min @ max on Tuesday.
2hr w/ 6x10min @ 100% on Wednesday.
Training is going great w/ the numbers I saw Wednesday!

2 hours easy in the muck last night.
Putting the Duh in Floriduh.
2x20 on the trainer at 5:30 this morning for the first time in ages. It sucked, but was nice and time efficient.
WRI's last night for the first time this year. FUUUUUUUUUUDGE. Burped up a little bit of lunch.
I was doing them up hills because, well, that's what I want to do. The first 2 I tried "all out, punishing the cranks for being cranks" and only made it to 30 seconds before crying, so, I figured getting to 1 minute is more important than max-MAX power right now, as my anaerobic systems haven't been punched much yet this year. So, for the last three I went hard hard, instead of sprint sprint. Still puked a little bit, so that counts for something, right? average power was still well above Z7 threshold. I'll let you all know how the next one goes.
2x20'. In the wind and on my bike without the PM so I'm sure my power was all over the place. HR and RPE is good enough for me today.

The Prescott Municipal Airport is one of the nations busiest General Aviation airports. During 2008, approximately 272,000 aircraft operations occurred at the airport. An "operation" is defined as either one takeoff or one landing by an aircraft. This level of operations made Prescott the 4th busiest airport in the state and the 41st busiest airport in the nation during 2008. Designated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) as a General Aviation airport, Prescott is utilized by light aircraft, helicopters, corporate aircraft (propeller & jet), commercial airline and military aircraft.
The Prescott Municipal Airport is an integral part of the local, regional and national air transportation system providing essential aviation services. Regional population and economic growth are anticipated to increase all segments of aviation at the airport. A primary factor affecting aviation activity is the growth, both residential and commercial, in the tri-city area. This growth has and will continue to cause aviation activity to increase at a rate that is somewhat proportionate to the rate of growth.
Until recently, the airport was located away from the population centers of Prescott, Prescott Valley and Chino Valley. As the population of the tri-city area continues to grow, moving residential development closer to the airport, the natural buffer zone that once protected the airport is gradually disappearing. Adding to the aviation activity in our area is the weather. The abundance of clear skies in the Arizona area has fostered a worldwide reputation for excellent flying conditions. So the same reason that so many people decide to locate in the tri-city area has brought about a high level of aviation activity.
Much of the traffic comes from flight training activities conducted by Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University and other flight schools. Other activity includes personal aviation, scheduled airline service, corporate & business aviation, and the military. The community benefits of these activities include medical flights, search & rescue flights, law enforcement, US Forest Service Air Tanker operations during the summer months, air tours to the Grand Canyon, etc.
In an effort to help minimize the potential impact upon the airport from residential encroachment and to allow for the development of the surrounding areas, the Airport and the City of Prescott developed and adopted the Airport Specific Area Plan (ASAP) in 2001. For further area information you may wish to contact the City's Planning Services office at 928-777-1207 and/or check the Arizona Department of Real Estate website. Additionally the City of Prescott is in the process of completing the 2009 Airport Master Plan which is updating the 1997 Airport Master Plan. For more information on the Airport Master Plan, please contact the Airport Administration Office at 928-777-1114
Voluntary Noise Abatement Policies expandable section
The procedures described below are designed to minimize aircraft noise disturbance to homes near the Prescott Airport. Compliance with our voluntary noise abatement procedures is extremely important in maintaining goodwill between the airport and the surrounding communities.

Complaints that contain vulgar or threatening language will not be acted upon.
Other Information about Aircraft Noise expandable section
A.O.P.A. Noise Awareness Steps
(Aircraft Owners & Pilots Association)
These are general recommendations; some may not be advisable for every aircraft in every situation. No noise reduction procedure should be allowed to compromise flight safety.
- If practical, avoid noise-sensitive areas. Make every effort to fly at or above 2,000 feet over such areas when overflight cannot be avoided.
- Consider using a reduced power setting if flight must be low because of cloud cover or overlying controlled airspace or when approaching the airport of destination. Propellers generate more noise than engines; flying with the lowest practical RPM setting will reduce aircraft noise substantially.
- Perform stalls, spins, and other practice maneuvers over uninhabited terrain.
- Familiarize yourself and comply with airport noise abatement procedures.
- On takeoff, gain altitude as quickly as possible without compromising safety. Begin takeoffs at the start of a runway, not at an intersection.
- Use Precision Approach Path Indicator (PAPI). This will indicate a safe glidepath and a low a smooth, quiet descent to the runway.
- Retract the landing gear either as soon as landing straight ahead on the runway can no longer be accomplished or as soon as the aircraft achieves a positive rate of climb. If practical, maintain best-angle-of-climb airspeed until reaching 50 feet or an altitude that provides clearance from terrain or obstacle. Then accelerate to best-rate-of-climb airspeed. If consistent with safety, make the first power reduction at 500 feet.
- Fly a tight landing pattern to keep noise as close to the airport as possible. Practice descent to the runway at low power settings and with as few power changes as possible.
- If possible, do not adjust the propeller control for flat pitch on the downwind leg; instead, wait until short final. This practice not only provides a quieter approach, but also reduces stress on the engine and the propeller governor.
- Avoid low-level, high-power approaches, which not only create high noise impacts, but also limit options in the event of engine failure.
- Flying between 11 p.m. and 7 a.m. should be avoided whenever possible.
FAA's Noise Abatement Policy expandable section
FAA's 1976 Aviation Noise Abatement Policy described the roles and responsibilities for all of the participants in aircraft noise issues, which is repeated here in its entirety.
- The Federal Government has the authority and responsibility to control aircraft noise by the regulation of source emissions, by flight operational procedures, and by management of the air traffic control system and navigable airspace in ways that minimize noise impact on residential areas, consistent with the highest standards of safety. The federal government also provides financial and technical assistance to airport proprietors for noise reduction planning and abatement activities and, working with the private sector, conducts continuing research into noise abatement technology.
- Airport Proprietors are primarily responsible for planning and implementing action designed to reduce the effect of noise on residents of the surrounding area. Such actions include optimal site location, improvements in airport design, noise abatement ground procedures, land acquisition, and restrictions on airport use that do not unjustly discriminate against any user, impede the federal interest in safety and management of the air navigation system, or unreasonably interfere with interstate or foreign commerce.
- State and Local Governments and Planning Agencies must provide for land use planning and development, zoning, and housing regulation that will limit the uses of land near airports to purposes compatible with airport operations.
- The Air Carriers are responsible for retirement, replacement, or retrofit of older jets that do not meet federal noise level standards, and for scheduling and flying airplanes in a way that minimizes the impact of noise on people.
- Air Travelers and Shippers generally should bear the cost of noise reduction, consistent with established federal economic and environmental policy that the adverse environmental consequences of a service or product should be reflected in its price.
- Residents and Prospective Residents in areas surrounding airports should seek to understand the noise problem and what steps can be taken to minimize its effect on people. Individual and community responses to aircraft noise differ substantially and, for some individuals, a reduced level of noise may not eliminate the annoyance or irritation. Prospective residents of areas impacted by airport noise thus should be aware of the effect of noise on their quality of life and act accordingly.
In addition to the roles and responsibilities, the 1976 Aviation Noise Abatement Policy provides general information on aircraft noise issues that may be useful to individuals who are new to the aircraft noise issue. The FAA also issued a draft policy in the year 2000.
Additional Information for Property Owners Surrounding the Airport expandable section
Arizona Revised Statutes
28-8485. Airport influence areas; notice
- After notice and hearing, this state or the governing body of a political subdivision that has established or operates an airport may designate as an airport influence area all property that is in the vicinity of the airport, that is currently exposed to aircraft noise and overflight and that either has a day-night average sound level of sixty-five decibels or higher or is within such geographical distance from an existing runway that exposes the area to aircraft noise and overflights as determined by the airport owner or operator.
- If this state or the governing body of a political subdivision establishes an airport influence area, this state or the governing body shall prepare and file a record of the airport influence area in the office of the county recorder in each county that contains property in the airport influence area. The record shall be sufficient to notify owners or potential purchasers of property in the airport influence area that property in the area is currently subject to aircraft noise and aircraft overflights.
28-8486. Public airport disclosure; definitions
- The state real estate department shall have and make available to the public on request a map showing the exterior boundaries of each territory in the vicinity of a public airport. The map shall clearly set forth the boundaries on a street map. The state real estate department shall work closely with each public airport and affected local government as necessary to create a map that is visually useful in determining whether property is located in or outside of a territory in the vicinity of a public airport.
- Each public airport shall record the map prepared pursuant to subsection A in the office of the county recorder in each county that contains property in a territory in the vicinity of the public airport. The recorded map shall be sufficient to notify owners and potential purchasers of property that the property is located in or outside of a territory in the vicinity of a public airport.
- For the purposes of this section:
- "Public airport" means an airport that is owned by a political subdivision of this state or that is otherwise open to the public.
- "Territory in the vicinity of a public airport" means property that is within the traffic pattern airspace as defined by the federal aviation administration and includes property that experiences a day-night average sound level as follows:
- In counties with a population of more than five hundred thousand persons, sixty decibels or higher at airports where such an average sound level has been identified in either the airport master plan for the twenty year planning period or in a noise study prepared in accordance with airport noise compatibility planning, 14 Code of Federal Regulations part 150.
- In counties with a population of five hundred thousand persons or less, sixty-five decibels or higher at airports where such an average sound level has been identified in the airport master plan for the twenty year planning period.

"What can we get for you and John Kerry?" [Darleen Click]
Also: Can we question the timing?
A new poll shows about 80% of Americans think President Barack Obama is "personally" responsible for at least some of the issues with the medical care provided to former soldiers by the Department of Veterans Affairs.
The Washington Post-ABC News poll, released Tuesday, found 38% of respondents viewed Obama responsible for a "good" or "great" amount of the VA's woes; another 41% said Obama was responsible for "just some" of the controversy. That makes for 79% of voters who lay at least some of the blame for the scandal with the president.
h/t Glenn Reynolds
Well, I think that the biggest problem we have is that the system itself, if we have a dominant branch, simply begins to shut down in terms of the safeguards. People don't seem to understand that the separation of powers is not about the power of these branches, it's there to protect individual liberty, it's there to protect us from the concentration of power. That's what is occurring here. You know, I've said it before, Barack Obama is really the president Richard Nixon always wanted to be. You know, he's been allowed to act unilaterally in a way that we've fought for decades.

This article interprets the regulatory state in Colombia as the result of a dialectic process between transnational knowledge and domestic politics, which influence, transform, and inspire each other. Such a process results in an interesting constitutional variant of the regulatory state, in which neo-constitutionalism becomes a counterbalance to the unchecked expansion of neo-liberal regulatory practices. I, therefore, distinguish between neoliberal and constitutional regulatory states. As a result of neo-constitutionalism, the domestic judiciary is empowered, and becomes a crucial actor to understand both the specific traits of this regulatory experience, and its interaction with global centers of power.

Today it's C-O-O-O-L-D, with forcast lows in the 20's.
Cold air is more dense, and provides more lift when flying my little airplane. It's so cold today that it took off by itself. (And it was still roped to the tie downs) :D

Ricky overslept and Ashley had to take care of John. Ashley is mad that Ricky may be lying to her about what he was doing (he slept with another girl while John was with his parents) and she is super jealous. They begin to argue about why they would never be together because she's practically his sister in law. She's also seeming like she is going to burst with the information that Ben is having a child with Adrian. Ricky thinks Ben should tell Amy. She thinks that they have real feelings for one another and she says that it is not just a sexual attraction. Ashley has fallen in love with the wrong guy. Their parents are listening and they think that he should leave John and go home for a few days. Ricky overhears what they are talking about and he says "good idea" behind the door.
Ben is sitting a chair seemingly talking to himself and Grace calls it 'the empty chair' where the person that passed away is told about something ridiculous. Ricky gets a knock at the door and it is his real mother. She asks if it is okay if she comes in and he wonders how you got in. He wonders why she is there and she says she wants to see her grandson but he refuses to and says she never will. She just came to say goodbye. She violated her parole and has to turn herself into the women's prison the next day. She promises to behave and that she is very much clean and sober. He seems to give in finally.
Ben shows up to talk to his dad and say goodnight. Leo tells him that you have business to take care of and Ben doesn't know what he is talking about. He wants to know if he has called Amy. He has decided he isn't going to call her because it is not the best thing for any of them right now. He thinks that they will deal with it then, but Leo worries that someone else will tell her before him. He is now making him go to New York to see Amy and tell her about what it is going on. He says that if he doesn't do it he will go to military school. He understands that he is still shocked, but in this house what he says goes. He tells him that they are going to talk about what he is going to say. Ben says that he will never be prepared to do that because it is really hard. Everyone has to deliver bad news at some point in their life and he has to tell Amy face to face. Ben's best friends show up and he tells them that he is kidnapping him. His one friend tells him that he should call Amy tonight if he doesn't want to go to New York and do it face to face.
Ricky is calling Ben and he answers the phone. Ricky needs a ride to school in the morning and thinks that they should talk so Ben agrees to it. Ashley walks in on her dad hanging up on Amy. Ashley thinks that someone has to tell Amy about Ben. He needs to talk to her and tell her that she can't date Ricky because he is the father of Amy's child. Her father tells her that it can never work. Ricky opens the door and tells Ben that he said he would talk to him out in the car. Ben is shocked that Ricky's mother is really there. Ricky is letting his mother have his car today. His mom thinks that Ben should have someone else tell Amy instead. Ricky and Ben leave and talk about his mother. He tells him that she wants him to go release her to the police. When they are about to walk out Bunny comes in so that she can watch the store while his mother is there.
Grace and Adrian catch up at school and they talk about how they had Ben tell his mom that she's having his baby. She tells her that Tom has been asking about him. She thinks that Tom is not going to have a good day because he's supposed to have a urine test and had pot brownies. Lauren gets mad at Madison because she didn't tell her about the baby. Adrian catches up with Ben's best friends and tells them she is pregnant. She calls attention to everyone and tells the whole school that she is having a baby and that the baby is Ben's. So now everyone in school knows that he is having a baby. At the deli, it seems that Bunny has put Ricky's mother to work and convinced a man to eat more meat so that she can make more money. Ben and Ricky show up and are weirded out by that. His mom decides that they have to go because it is a long drive. She goes upstairs to get her stuff and Bunny asks if he will be able to do it and he says that he will be fine. Ricky says that Ben will be fine when he tells her about the baby.
Jack is texting in the kitchen and Lauren's boyfriend shows up. Jesse thinks that people need to know that Jack lives at the guesthouse. They are going crazy because they are fighting. When he is leaving Tom comes in and he introduces him to Jesse but Tom is upset and he failed the drug test. Tom's mom comes in and has caught him living there. He tells her that the brownies were in the freezer and he didn't know. Tom said that they were going to tell her when the time was right. Jack wants to fix it and he needs to stay there. She thinks that they need to see how things go. Ricky brings his mother to the prison so that she can be dropped off. She forgot to to take her gun out of her purse before she went to meet with her parole officer. She gives him a necklace and a key to a safety deposit box. She asks him to send her pictures of John. She tells him that she is going to learn how to speak Vietnamese since you should have a goal when in prison according to her. He starts crying and decides to hug her goodbye.
Amy and Ashley's mom talk to Ashley about the fact that Ben will be going to New York to tell her about Adrian. She asks how Ashley feels about Ricky and she thinks she might love him. She asks if he feels the same way about her and she doesn't think so. They have a heart to heart about how relationships makes someone need to consider whether it is good to do that or not. She needs to think as well as feel. Ricky comes in and asks Ashley if she needs a ride to school. He thinks they need to talk and she thinks that they should just be friends and he says that is exactly what he needs right now. Elsewhere in New York Ben pulls up with his father and he wants to make sure he knows what he is going to say to her. She pulls up and she is there. He leaves the kids to speak out front. He decides to blurt out what he needed to tell her. She is crushed that she is actually having the baby. She drives off instead of staying there. He says that he did the right thing by going there and telling her.

25 Essential Items for Your Triathlon Race Bag
Instead of trying to think of everything all at once, we've compiled the ultimate pre-race packing checklist for you. Print out this list and check off every item as you pack up the night before—you'll be less likely to have a panic attack on race morning because you've forgotten one of your race-day essentials.
1 of 26
Pay attention to the weather report when packing for the swim. Is it going to be sunny when you start your race? Then make sure you pack a pair of tinted goggles so you can actually see the swim buoys.
2 of 26
Check your wetsuit for tears well before the race so you can have them patched before race day. Pack an extra just in case.
Extra Goggles
3 of 26
An extra pair of goggles doesn't take up much room, and having them ready when yours unexpectedly break on race morning is recommended.
Swim Cap
4 of 26
Bring two or three to be on the safe side. The extra warmth on your head from two caps will make a difference in cold water.
Wetsuit Lubricant
5 of 26
For a good wetsuit lubricant, you don't have to fork over big bucks for a name brand. A good trick is to use a non-stick cooking spray, which does the same job just as well. No matter what you decide to go with, make sure you've used it in practice before so you know it doesn't bother your skin.
Goggle Anti-Fog
6 of 26
The best anti-fog for your goggles is baby shampoo, but make sure you prepare this the night before the race.
Cycling Shoes
7 of 26
This one is pretty self-explanatory. You won't get very far without your shoes.
8 of 26
The same rules apply for sunglasses as with goggles. Know what you're up against. Is it a heavily shaded bike course? Make sure your lens choice matches the course and weather conditions.
9 of 26
If you forget your helmet, your race will be over before it begins. All certified triathlons require a helmet that must be worn at all times during the bike leg.
Arm Warmers or Wind Breaker
10 of 26
Arm warmers are one of those items people often overlook in a race bag. The extra 30 seconds it takes to put them on in a cold race can save you hours of agony. If you know the course will be cold or windy, put on the windbreaker—your body will thank you later on in the run.
11 of 26
As for socks, well, that's a personal choice. It's a struggle to put them on after getting out of the water, but that little bit of extra comfort can go a long way in a race.
Running Shoes
12 of 26
A good tip is to wear your running shoes to the race. That way you'll be sure you won't forget them. It'll also leave a little bit of extra room in your bag for nutrition.
Visor or Hat
13 of 26
If it's a hot race, bring a hat instead of a visor. The extra coverage from the sun is important—and a hat is a great place to stick sponges and/or ice that you grab at aid stations.
Portable Hydration Bottle
14 of 26
If you're racing in a sprint or an Olympic race in mild weather, you might not need a portable bottle. Bring one anyway. You might feel more dehydrated than normal after a salty swim, or you didn't drink enough on the bike. Having fluid with you as you start the run can be a lifesaver.
Make sure you find out ahead of time if the race has regular aid stations on the run course too, and remember that just because they had water at every aid station when the race began doesn't mean they won't run out by the time you get there. This is when extra nutrition can come in handy.
Bottles for the Bike
15 of 26
For every 100 calories of food (in whatever form) you plan to ingest per hour, you need at least 12 ounces of fluid in that same hour. Figure out how many bottles you'll need during the race and bring a few extra just in case.
Extra Bottle in Transition Area
16 of 26
Keep one more extra bottle of plain water in transition. You can use it to wash your feet off after a sandy swim or drink it after the race.
Pre-Race Nutrition
17 of 26
Your race-day nutrition plan is one of those incredibly personal decisions—and it's a lot harder to follow if you forget to bring it to the race. Just make sure you have a plan and stick to it.
Fuel for Bike/Run
18 of 26
You should pack 100 calories of food for every hour of racing. Try to plan out when and what you'll eat (gels, bars etc.) and bring a few extra.
Race Belt
19 of 26
Some races require you to have your number pinned on for the bike and not just the run, so be mindful of this. If you have a race belt, bring it. It's a lot simpler than pinning on numbers that'll probably bunch up anyway.
Timing Chip
20 of 26
Put on your timing chip as soon as you set up your transition area. Pay attention to where all the stickers go (bike frame, helmet, dry clothes bag etc.) because some races are strict about this. Do it the night before, if possible.
21 of 26
Bring sunscreen. Put it on everywhere before you put on your race kit. Put it on again after body marking. If your race is longer than a sprint, you're going to want to reapply at least once.
22 of 26
Lots of stuff gets wet during your tri. Bring a towel to dry off between legs or to wipe off your gear after the race.
Duct Tape or Electrical Tape
23 of 26
Want to bring a couple extra gels but have nowhere to put them? Electrical tape them to your top tube for easy access.
Safety Pins
24 of 26
Did you get a crappy timing chip strap that is about to disintegrate? Pin it in place.
Everything in Your Race Packet
25 of 26
Every single thing they give you in that race packet at the expo—all those numbered stickers and twist-ties and Velcro straps—bring all of it with you. Something that seems useless the night before could turn out to be a lifesaver on race day.

Riding Shotgun
From Grand Theft Wiki
Riding Shotgun is a particular side mission in GTA Chinatown wars that is similar to rampages. There are several Cavalcade FXT vehicles parked all over Liberty City. When you enter these vehicles a triad member will accompany you on the van park and shoot at a number of gang cars, most in particular the gang leader's truck. The side mission is similar to the Zhou Ming mission "Driven to Destruction." As with all side missions the riding shotgun is necessary to achieve 100% completion.

The NBA's 10 Highest-Paid Benchwarmers
Ever taken a look at the bench during an NBA game and saw that guy sitting there in his warm-up gear, cheering on his team? If so, then you've noticed the twelfth man on an NBA roster. The twelfth man is the unofficial term for the last man on the depth chart of an NBA team. Teams have to dress twelve players for a game. However, typical teams only play eight or nine men in an average game. Sometimes a team will play ten players in the event that there is an injury or other issue with a starter. The last man on a team's roster will often only play with a few minutes left in the game when his team has a considerable lead or is totally out of the game.
It's pretty uncommon to see a twelfth man enter an NBA game but people love when it actually happens. Don't let yourself feel too sorry for these benchwarmers, though. While they hardly get to see any game action and are often mocked for being cheerleaders of sorts, they are still paid handsomely compared to the average Joe.
The NBA's minimum salary is $490,000 a year for rookies and $1 million for players who have been in the league for at least five years. Some of the NBA's twelfth men are rookies who are just getting their feet wet, but others are experienced veterans who provide mentorship and guidance for younger, more capable players on the team. Here's a look at the NBA's highest-paid benchwarmers for the 2013 season.
10. Tornike Shengelia – Brooklyn Nets – $780,000
Tornike Shengelia is a native of Georgia who played nineteen games for the Brooklyn Nets last year, averaging around 4.9 minutes per game. The 22-year-old scored thirty points during those nineteen games, eleven of which came in his league debut against the Boston Celtics. Shengelia has had multiple assignments this season with the Springfield Armor, the Nets' NBA Development League affiliate. His $780,000 salary is a $300,000 increase over what he earned in his rookie year.

Take a Walk on the Wilde Side…
High society wedding planner Lauren Remington is determined to prove her family wrong and make a success of her business, but a last minute disaster brings a glorious end to all her grand plans. Desperate for help, her only hope is Max Wilde, a man whose rugged, leather-clad body is almost as dangerous as his sleek black Harley. Max may be everything Lauren's mother warned her about, but desperate times call for desperate measures… providing she can convince him to help her out.
Max isn't sure why he agreed to help save Lauren's shapely derriere, especially when one tilt of her blue-blooded nose is enough to get his back up. There's just something about the way Lauren's curvy body snuggles up against his that feels right, and he'd kill to see her out of her Chanel suit and into tight red leather. Not only that, but he can't help but admire the way she doesn't shy away from his foster kids and their rough-and-tumble friends. Still, Max knows that his wrong-side-of-the-tracks background could never fit in Lauren's high society world… but somewhere deep behind the lady lies a woman born to be wild.

Deliver Us From Darkness: The Untold Story of Third Battalion 506 Parachute Infantry Regiment
Ian Gardner, co-author of Tonight We Die as Men, is back with the second installment of the exploits of the 3/506 in WWII. Drawing on years of research and more than seventy extended interviews with veterans and civilians caught up in the fighting, Deliver Us from Darkness begins where the earlier book ended, with the troops taking R&R back in England after weeks of grueling fighting in Normandy.
Deliver Us from Darkness explains how, with little notice on Sept 17, 1944, the 101st Airborne Division parachuted into Holland as part of Operation Market Garden. Their mission was to secure the main highway that passed through the city of Eindhoven and facilitate the advance of Gen. Sir Miles Dempsey's Second British Army towards Arnhem. The soldiers had been lead to believe that after the capture of Eindhoven their mission would be over. In the end, however, it was only the beginning of a bloody 72-day campaign that would see no quarter given by either side.

Bankruptcy Law
Bankruptcy Law Questions? Ask a Bankruptcy Lawyer Now.
May 2013
This creditor is non standard. They say they charged off the acct, but the collection agency said they are part of Key bank. They also say they are continuing to accrue interest. Is that usually the case. I was able to settle another acct, but it was a different company. They immediately offered 39% and I took it. The acct was $5700 last month and now they say it's $5800. I sent a settlement offer last month for $2400 and they called me and offered $3000 to settle. I told them I don't have that and will have to pay other creditors so may even not have that much later. Can I lower my offer this month? This company is strange and the collector said they can't send me any documents and communication must be with the original creditor recovery dept. I can send a written offer and offer less $$, say $2000

If it's not hardware or we forgot to turn on WiFi then it's likely to be a hardware failure.
WLAN AutoConfig service gives error 1067 when trying to start it. What I tried:
Reset winsock settings
Ran SFC /scannow
Did system restore
Uninstalled and reinstalled drivers
Ran full system clean up (cache, temp, internet files, errorlogs etc)
I tried all of these in normal mode AND in safe mode. None of it worked.
Then i thought the service dll (C:\Windows\system32\wlansvc.dll) itself might have been damaged/outdated/whatever, so I tried to delete it and put a new one from donor pc, but no luck.
It wouldn't give me access to the file no matter what i tried, safe mode, unlocker tools, auto rename it on startup, doing everything in administrator and changing permissions under properties. It just won't give me access to the file.
It was working few days ago and i literally have no idea why it stopped working.
Windows 7 Professional 32-bit
Sony VAIO Laptop

Any idea how to fix it? Thanks in advance

They say highly publicized allegations of employee mistreatment can tarnish a company's reputation with consumers, damage its employment brand and diminish the company's value in the eyes of investors.
"The reputational risk is real," says Tim Smith, senior vice president of Walden Asset Management, a Boston-based firm that specializes in sustainable, socially responsible investments. "A company that doesn't deal with the public directly isn't as vulnerable, but for a consumer-
oriented outfit like a big retailer, these sorts of charges can be troubling."
Some of the consumer-brand damage may be self-inflicted; experts say that employees unhappy over what they perceive as unfair treatment are less likely to provide good customer service. "That ill feeling becomes part of your image," says labor law attorney Reuben Guttman, who is representing meatpacking plant workers in a wage and hour suit against Tyson Foods.
"In the old way of thinking, employees were viewed as an expense. ... But today, sustainable investors are seeing that as shortsighted and problematic."
—Tim Smith, senior vice president, Walden Asset Management
Wage and hour lawsuits can cripple talent acquisition as well, says recruiting and HR consultant Peter Weddle, publisher of the Weddle's guides to employment-related Web sites.
"Some think your employment brand is a jingle or a slogan or a formal branding statement, but what's equally important is what people say about an organization and what it's like to work there," he says. "It's absolutely guaranteed that one of these situations will degrade the employment brand, because it says something negative to potential hires about the leadership values and priorities of an organization."
Increasingly, investors are tuned in to such disputes and what they reveal about corporate governance, Smith says.
"More and more, they look at ESG [ethics, sustainability and governance] issues as part of fiduciary responsibility," he explains. "In the old way of thinking, employees were viewed as an expense, something you try to get as much work out of for as little money as possible. Companies might have assumed that investors wanted them to squeeze workers. But today, sustainable investors are seeing that as shortsighted and problematic.
"They want companies that see the workforce as a resource, as an asset on the balance sheet rather than a cost."

A pair of pizza delivery drivers were robbed at gunpoint in what investigators say appear to be unrelated crimes.
The first one happened Monday afternoon on Mary's Court.
Tallahassee police said a masked man with a black revolver came around from the back of the house and stole the driver's cash and cell phone.
Then, around 10:30 Tuesday night, a trio of masked men robbed a pizza delivery driver on Balkin Road. Sheriff's deputies said one of the men struck him in the face before fleeing the scene.
No arrests have been made.

Next year i am thinking of moving to DC. My girlfriend is in law school at GW and I may be moving there to live with her. I was wondering what cycling is like in the greater DC area. She commutes to and from places, but she hasn't been riding long. What are the commutes like? If i were to live 5-10 miles away from DC, is commuting an option?
Besides commuting, I do road race. What is the racing scene like? Are there many races? Is there any or many cycling or tri clubs in the area?
If anyone has any other relevant information about cycling in and around DC I'd love to hear what you have to say.
Thanks for your input....

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. --- Despite a bout of severe weather that moved through Tuscaloosa late Tuesday afternoon, a crowd of about 1,200 fans were on hand to watch the 2002 edition of Night of Champions.
"It was a big night tonight for our players," said Tide coach Dennis Franchione. "The crowd was encouraging and I think the kids performed well."
A total of 10 records fell during the exhibition, nine weight lifting records and another in the vertical jump exhibition.
"It was gratifying to see how the kids were getting excited about each other," Franchione added, "there were some big lifts out there tonight. We have made such a big jump since this time last year. We are ahead of where I thought we would be going into our second season. This was a great way to end this semester of school.
In addition to the record-setting lifts, defensive back Roberto McBride, tight end Theo Sanders, defensive end Antwan Odom and defensive lineman Atlas Herrion were named "Iron Men" for the 2002 season. The Iron Man Award is based on proportionate amount of weight lifted per pound of body weight.
Setting records Tuesday night were sophomore tailback Josh Smith (465 pounds) and linebacker Cornelius Wortham (480 pounds) in the bench press; defensive tackle Anthony Bryant (755 pounds) and tight end Theo Sanders (550 pounds) in the squat; offensive guard Justin Smiley (415 pounds) and receiver Lance Taylor (365 pounds) in the hang clean and receiver Dre Fulgham (390 pounds), offensive guard Marico Portis (450 pounds) and fullback Nick Signaigo (415 pounds) in the incline press.
Defensive back Waine Bacon had a 42-inch vertical jump for the other record.
Others participating in the event were linebacker Mark Anderson, receiver Brandon Brooks, center J.B. Closner, defensive lineman Jarret Johnson, tight end Clint Johnston, linebacker Juke King, defensive back Anthony Madison, defensive back Charlie Peprah, receiver Lance Taylor and tailback Shaud Williams.

Charlie Sheen & Winona Ryder
According to MSN, Charlie Sheen dated Winona Ryder in 1986, when the two met on the set of Lucas. Sheen even claims to have given Ryder -- originally Winona Horowitz -- her stage name. "We were listening to the Doors, to 'Riders on the Storm.' [Winona's] real name is Horowitz," he said during an appearance on CenterStage. "And I said, 'You know, I'm thinking Winona Ryder sounds cool,' and she was like, 'Yeah!'"

We want riders to win because of ability, not because they were lucky enough not to break an engine...
Posted by Ich - Unregistered (4 hours ago)
Exactly.I would hate to see the championship decided by an engine failure!
People complain that we arent seeing enough real racing but riders who are running out of engines are going to be afraid to push for potential victories for fear of damaging the engines they have left.I have always hated the engine rule and this is only going to make it worse.

All true (don't get me started on my pet topic "instant gratification" aka fairy floss) - even the disastrous ones survive like zombies in the few projects that used them and got to first base for other reasons.
Personally I don't think Pick has those hallmarks as it still has some adherents. However in 30 years of opportunity it hasn't totally dominated the world so I feel quite relaxed about consigning it to the also ran category as I doubt very much if it would achieve that in another 30 years.

Trying your first 3D programs? Read the book and let it roll,
This review is from: Java 3D API Jump-Start (Paperback)
As a developer with a number of ideas all having to do with 3D applications, I was searching for more info on Java3D. I was not even sure if I should use Java for it. Although being a Dutchman, my business as an independent trainer and developer is in the high-tech German automotive and appliances industry. Training and educating young German engineers in development and manufacturing of new high quality products.
So, there I was, having lots of ideas but no real base to build on. What I had were some plain Java books, of course the Java Tutorial and the Java 3D API Specification. Especialy the latter gives lots of information and is an excellent source of 3D coding, however, it is not an easy guide for a starting programmer. Anyway, you know how it is, if you go into detail, you're coming across many difficulties and problems. It usually takes lots of times to find out where something like your problem is described. And even if you find something similar, it might be in a completely other context, or you have to go through long code lists just to find a part of the solution.
Then, searching the Amazone site, I came along a new book called the Java 3D API Jump Start. I finished it in two main sessions, I believe it were two long evenings all together. The main advantage to me in the first place was that it re-assured me, Java3D was the way to go. It very well describes the history of Java3D, the backgrounds and developments under way, and the outlook in the future. All backed up by many pictures, lots of them in full color.
It is, of course, a book for beginning 3D programmers. So, it brings you quickly up to speed. The way the book deals with the various topics is the following. It describes details you ever wanted to know about, gives some code lines just fot that particular option and refers to the API's or free available examples on the web, for the neighbouring code lines. Just to give you an idea of some of the topics, it descibes very thoroughly things like Geometry Arrays and Utilities. There are, for instance, full code samples of building geometric shapes, using advanced tools like the automatic triangulator and the normal generator. Also it describes very well topics like Indexed and Stripped Geometry Arrays. Some of the highlights of the book to me are the chapters on lighting, transformations and behaviours.
The book refers also to the Jump Start web-site where the interested reader can find example programs together with the source codes. So, the book gives you exactly what it promises, a jump start into Java3D. It not only helps you to build your first 3D programs, but it tells you also how things work and why they should be programmed in their particular way.
Now that I have read the book, do I still have questions? Yes, lots of them. But that's the way it should be. After you have your first shapes moving across your screen, you want more. You like to add all those nice little things you only know about, and of course, these are nowhere described. But now you have at least gained experience and increased your knowledge of Java3D, which makes it easier to find solutions elsewhere. And, hopefully the authors of this book Aaron E. Walsh and Doug Gehringer will make some efforts to write their next one on advanced Java3D programming.

There is no bigger taboo in Israel than comparing the state of Israel to Nazi Germany. And yet that is precisely what Yair Golan, the deputy head of the Israeli military, did during a speech to mark Holocaust Memorial Day. There is now a palpable fear among army commanders like Golan that they are losing control over their soldiers – and with it any hope of holding on to their much-cherished claim to be the "most moral army in the world".
Holocaust / Anti-Semitism
The Paris killings have reinforced Israeli suspicions that Europe, with its rapidly growing Muslim population, is being dragged into a clash of civilisations it is ill-equipped to combat. And the targeting of a kosher supermarket that killed four Jews has heightened a belief that Jews outside Israel are in mortal danger. In Netanyahu's conception, a Jew's primary bond should be to their "true home", the Jewish state of Israel. Paradoxically, that view is shared by Europe's far-right.
Netanyahu was probably the least welcome of the 40 world leaders who participated in the rally in Paris on Sunday to demonstrate their outrage at last week's attack that left 17 people dead, including four French Jews. According to Israeli media, President Francois Hollande's advisers had urged Netanyahu not to come, concerned that he would exploit the visit – and the deaths – to increase divisions in French society. They had good grounds for concern.
An Arab member of the Israeli parliament has sparked controversy among Jews and Arabs in Israel over his decision to join an official Israeli delegation commemorating International Holocaust Day tomorrow at a Nazi death camp in Poland. Mohammed Barakeh will be the only Arab in a contingent of Israeli parliamentarians and government ministers, including Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister, at Auschwitz to commemorate the 65th anniversary of the camp's liberation.
Iran is the new Nazi Germany and its president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the new Hitler. Or so Israeli officials have been declaring for months as they and their American allies try to persuade the doubters in Washington that an attack on Tehran is essential. And if the latest media reports are to be trusted, it looks like they may again be winning the battle for hearts and minds: Vice-President Dick Cheney is said to be diverting the White House back on track to launch a military strike.
The trajectory of a long-running campaign that gave birth this month to the preposterous all-party British parliamentary report into anti-Semitism in the UK can be traced back to intensive lobbying by the Israeli government that began more than four years ago. At that time, he drafted the Israeli media into the fray. Local newspapers began endlessly highlighting concerns about the rise of a "new anti-Semitism", a theme that was rapidly and enthusiastically taken up by the muscular Zionist lobby in the US.
Anti-Semitism, like some plague-inducing virus, is "evolving" — or so warns Holocaust scholar Daniel J. Goldhagen. His article is one of the latest contributions to a growing body of reports by American and Israeli journalists and research centers purporting to show that a powerful new strain of racism is sweeping the globe. None of the authors is as disinterested as he claims: each hopes to silence criticism of both Israel and the muscular Zionist lobby groups within Washington that support Israel.
For many months the Haaretz newspaper has included a special compilation of reports on the "New Anti-Semitism". Some commentators have pointed out that Israel's current preoccupation with anti-Semitism dangerously conflates two separate, and very different, trends: the first a harsher ideological climate in Europe towards Israel's military assault on the Palestinians; and the second a wave of attacks on synagogues and Jews, often committed by Muslim youths angry at what they see as Western indifference to this assault.

In all three cases, the video will be shown as it fits into lesson plans most likely in a recorded form at a later date.
According to the U.S. Department of Education, "During this special address, the president (Barack Obama) will speak directly to the nation's children and youth about persisting and succeeding in school.
"The president will challenge students to work hard, set educational goals, and take responsibility for their learning."
BISD Superintendent Dr. John Hardwick Jr. said that the decision of viewing either the live or recorded version of the speech will be left to the teachers.
"We are not going to shut down everything," he said, saying that classes will continue as usual.
Teachers, Hardwick said, have the option of using the speech as part of their curriculum and developing questions and having open discussions.
"We always encourage our teachers to use the window of opportunity and use current events to motivate students," he said. "The teachers are also expected to make sure they don't lean on the students or try to influence the students to their own opinion."
Skidmore-Tynan Superintendent Dr. Brett Belmarez said that they would follow similar guidelines.
"We won't be interrupting classes for this viewing," he said. "We are not afforded the luxury of taking time out to do this."
Belmarez said that while they won't be interrupting classes, teachers have the option of showing the address during class if it fits within their curriculum.
"Each individual campus will make that decision with teachers," he said.
For youngsters in the elementary grades, the viewing time, 11 a.m., is in the middle of their lunch period.
Belmarez said that those students who wish to see it also can view the recorded version on the government Web site. This same recording can also be used by teachers wanting to incorporate it into their curriculum.
The decision not to interrupt class was not politically motivated, Belmarez said, echoing the comments of the other superintendents.
"Oh Lord, no," he said adding that some of the teachers did show the presidential inauguration during class and that it was used as part of the curriculum.
At Pettus ISD, Superintendent Tucker Rackley said that they will show a recorded version of the address to students but not the live version.
"We are going to record it and later during the week we are going to incorporate that into our social studies classes in the 4-12 grades."
For those parents concerned about the broadcast, a permission letter was sent out this past week.
Parents, after viewing Tuesday's broadcast, either live or recorded, can then return the permission slip either giving permission or declining.
"There is a lot of controversy and parents are concerned," Rackley said. "I want to put this into the hands of the parents."
A call to the Pawnee superintendent was not immediately returned.

Over the last few months, I have been conducting a search for a qualified candidate to fill the vacant Editor-in-Chief position here at IGM. The plan was for Vinny and I to hold down the fort while I made the rounds.
As I did my work, I noted something. The writing staff was functioning as smoothly as it ever had been, we were meeting our soft deadlines and all the while we were still gaining momentum toward the upcoming April release of the Magazine. I was busy searching and doing my normal duties, so it wasn't me…
Therefore it just made sense for me to offer the position of Editor-in-Chief to Mr. Vinny Parisi. Effective immediately, Vinny will become, officially, the leader of our editorial and writing team in addition to his normal roles. As we discussed it, Vinny pointed out that this ends up being just a title change for him since he was doing the role already anyway.
So let me be the first to congratulate Vinny on his promotion. Well done Vinny! Thanks for making IGM awesome for our audience, staff and even myself. It has been a real pleasure watching you go from a writer to Community Manager to Editor-in-Chief.

There is an illusion of absolute power pervading Washington these days. "We can do whatever we want, voters be damned. All we have to do is print more money." I have no doubt they will drive America into the ground in the short term. Election Day, I'm hoping, will put these idiots out of a job.ReplyDelete

The entire country is chest deep in debt - the Feds, state governments, local governments, and most of the population. It will take a generation or two to get out of all this debt. And to pay for it government at all levels is going to have to raise taxes. And that, believe it or not, will be a positive thing in the end. That's the only way we will get back to budget surpluses. Individuals are so scared of all the debt they are carrying that they will be in saving mode for some time.ReplyDelete
It is amazing how easy it is for us to buy in to the idea that the only solution is to raise taxes - How about the unusual concept of cutting spending.ReplyDelete
Our elected officials proudly point out that half of the cost of Obamacare will be paid for through reductions in Waste & Fraud in Medicare & Medicaid - the fact that there is $500 Billion in Waste & Fraud to be cut should not be a source of pride, it should be a cause for a lot of people to lose their jobs and some to be prosecuted.
