Since Seattle-Tacoma International Airport opened its third runway in 2008 things have gotten louder for residents in the Marine Hills neighborhood of Federal Way, who blame a change in flight patterns. But overall near the airport, things have gotten quieter.
People in the Marine Hills neighborhood of Federal Way are constantly raising their voices. Or often they just stop talking. Some can't sleep through the night.
And they're all pointing fingers at a neighbor eight miles north.
Since Seattle-Tacoma International Airport opened its third runway in 2008, things have gotten louder for residents, who blame a change in flight patterns. "Previously, we virtually had no planes that came over the top of us," said James Simpson, who's lived in Marine Hills for eight years. "Now they're right over the top of us all the time."

A sound monitor in the neighborhood shows that residents are dealing with loud airplane noise more than three times as often as they used to. The average amount of time when noise in the neighborhood is above 65 decibels — about the level of face-to-face conversation, according to noise expert Vince Mestre — has jumped from 78 minutes a day to 260 minutes.
The monitor is one of 25 the Port of Seattle has placed around the region, from the Maple Leaf neighborhood in Seattle to Twin Lakes in Federal Way. The monitors have shown that noise generally has decreased around the airport, which Port officials attribute to fewer and quieter planes. But at 10 of the 25 locations — including Marine Hills — it has gotten louder, according to a Seattle Times analysis of data from the first few months of 2008 and 2011. The analysis uses neighborhoods' median noise-exposure level, a ballpark figure for noise.
Stan Shepherd, the Port's airport-noise-programs manager, said the Port's hands are tied. Federal funding is available to help people soundproof their homes, but areas such as Marine Hills and the area west of Boeing Field that have gotten louder fall below the cutoff. And flight-path changes are not under the Port's jurisdiction — they're up to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
The Port's Noise Compatibility Study, which will wrap up around the end of the year, will find who's impacted by airport noise and how to reduce it, said Mestre, who works for Landrum & Brown, the company conducting the study.
The study uses a complicated logarithmic formula required by the FAA to calculate sound. The measurement, referred to as the day-night average noise level (DNL), indicates average noise over a year, with nighttime sound weighted 10 decibels higher because it's considered more annoying.
Marine Hills had the fourth-highest median noise level of all 25 monitors; it was 63.8 during the first three months of 2011. That's almost three decibels higher than it was before the third runway opened in 2008. That equates to roughly twice as many planes flying over the area during the daytime, presuming the loudness of individual planes hasn't changed, Mestre said. Noise exposure also can change as more planes take off or land from the north or south because of weather conditions, he said.
Even though Marine Hills is one of the areas most affected by airport noise, its residents don't qualify for FAA-funded noise protection, such as insulation and sound-dampening windows. That's because Marine Hills remains outside an oval area around the airport, inside of which the average day-night noise level is 65 decibels.
The 65 DNL was established by the FAA with the criteria that at least 15 percent of the population in that area is highly annoyed, said Nancy Timmerman, chair of the Technical Committee on Noise at the Acoustical Society of America.
"Highly annoyed means you're picking up the phone [to complain]. I don't think you want 15 percent of the people picking up the phone," she said. "I don't think that's an acceptable criterion."
Timmerman said 65 DNL is not the standard across all agencies that look at outdoor noise.
The Environmental Protection Agency and World Health Organization have recommended 55 DNL as a healthy outdoor noise level.
Other cities, such as Minneapolis, have obtained funding to insulate homes in areas below the 65 DNL threshold.
The Port of Seattle has tapped into other funding for noise projects below the 65 DNL in "limited and unusual circumstances," Port spokesman Perry Cooper said, including use of Port funds for noise mitigation in the Highline School District.
And in many places eligible for mitigation funding, the DNL is below 65.
Though the Port's 25 noise monitors show a general drop in noise around the airport, residents haven't been pleased.
A Port report after an October 2010 public workshop concluded: "The general tone of the discussion might be best summed up by this comment: The noise contours do not reflect the reality on the ground."
At a community update on the study in June at Federal Way, many people laid their noise woes before Port commissioners. Residents hearkened back to the long-contentious issue of third-runway use.
Airport neighbors have claimed they were misled to believe the runway would be used only minimally in bad weather. As of July 3, the third runway was used for 34.2 percent of all arrivals and 1.9 percent of departures in 2011, according to the Port, which doesn't have power over runway use — that's also in the hands of the FAA.
Blaming the new runway for noise changes is an oversimplification, Mestre said. The airline industry is always in flux, and the number of fleets operating out of the airport and how many passengers they carry change things, he said.
Federal Way City Councilwoman Linda Kochmar said her constituents in Marine Hills should receive some sort of mitigation funding.
"It's like a gorilla, a Goliath," Kochmar said of the Port. In front of the commission, she pleaded for a change in flight patterns to lessen the noise in Marine Hills. She said she's been asking the Port and FAA for help for years.
Shepherd said every neighborhood around the airport has had the same complaints about air traffic, and if the FAA changed the flight paths, the noise would just affect someone else.
"People want it moved," Shepherd said. "They always want it out of their neighborhood … . We address those concerns."

We all knew it was coming. There were multiple reports within the past 24 hours that extensions for Brian Sabean and Bruce Bochy would be made public within 24 hours, and that's exactly what happened.
San Francisco Giants President and CEO Larry Baer today announced that the team has extended the contracts of Senior Vice President and General Manager Brian Sabean and Field Manager Bruce Bochy through the 2016 season, with options for both in 2017. Terms of the agreements were not disclosed.
Sabean is in his 17th year as the Giants' GM, the longest-tenured man in the sport holding that position. As the Giants' press release states, "Bochy recently completed his 18th-consecutive year as a big league skipper, the longest stint by an active manager." Always nice to get the word "skipper" in there whenever possible. Six of those 18 years have been in San Francisco. While Bochy has compiled a 503-469 (.517) regular season mark with the Giants, his teams have averaged 90 wins over the past four seasons and gone 22-9 in postseason play and 8-1 in the World Series.
We all know Sabean so well by now (phrases like "kick the tires" and "due dilligence" immediately come to mind, and then there's the legendary RAZR flip phone), but he has changed his stripes slightly in the years A.B. (After Bonds). It took a while for Sabean to realize that after steroid testing went into effect players simply got old, not old and better at the same time. After relapsing a bit back into the veteran love in 2011, the Giants have given more rope to younger players like Brandon Crawford and Brandon Belt — that may be why Nick Noonan has a good shot to make the roster as the last infielder, instead of a retread like Wilson Valdez.
The Giants are even utilizing modern forms of statistical analysis more than ever before, something Wendy Thurm detailed recently.
Hiring John Barr certainly helped get the Giants some youthful position players worth making room for. Bochy has had help as well in the form of a great coaching staff, particularly on the pitching side with Dave Righetti (who'd be "Sir Dave Righetti" by now if he was the pitching coach for the Yankees, he's so good) and Mark Gardner, one of the underrated "good Giants" as Mike Krukow might say. Part of being a good manager is finding and keeping talent, and then listening to them.
"In my opinion Bruce is the best manager in the game today and is on his way to a Hall of Fame career," said Sabean. "Bruce's ability to communicate with his players, his outstanding coaching staff and the front office, as well as his ability to brilliantly manage a game sets him apart from the rest. It has been a pleasure to work with him for the past six years and I look forward to the coming years ahead."
The word that's instantly noticeable is "communicate," which in my opinion is the reason why the Giants have been this successful and also why Sabean's and Bochy's extensions get announced at the same time.
Sabean has a gruff demeanor, but he will answer nearly every question he faces directly and honestly (just don't ask about potential trades). The more I cover the team, the more in awe I am of what Bochy faces on a daily basis: pregame dugout media session, interview with Jon Miller, postgame media session, and then he also has a team to run and games to manage.
Because the season is so long, statistics tell a more complete story in baseball than perhaps any other sport. But inside that story is Bochy accumulating information from and conveying information to his players and coaches. All of that goes to Sabean, who makes decisions accordingly. I've told this story before, but when I first started getting access in August of 2011, the team was floundering. After a 7-0 loss to the Cubs, as we were making our way out of the clubhouse I smelled smoke. Sabean was sitting back in a chair in Bochy's office with a giant cigar, and while neither man was happy there was a quiet calmness that I couldn't help but notice, even though I only caught a glance of the scene as I was walking out the clubhouse door. Talk about an old school scene.
I wondered what they could've possibly been discussing ("Who to DFA? Who to call up?). Two days later, the Giants designated Miguel Tejada and Aaron Rowand for assignment, turning a necessary page for both men in how they adapted to a changing team and style of baseball in the (sort of) post-steroid era. Usually age and experience seems to go hand in hand with getting stuck in one's ways, but the longer Sabean and Bochy have been together and the more they have communicated, they better they have become as a tandem. It'll be interesting to see how much longer that remains the case.

While giving gifts on all the eight nights of Chanukah has become one of the most common and popular norms for American Jews, the tradition is fairly new for local Iranian Jews. Not having to compete with Christmas like most Ashkenazim, Jews living in Iran do not give gifts for Chanukah. Only recently has the community that has resettled in the United States adopted the tradition.
"Chanukah is not a major holiday in Iran [for Jews]. We used to light candles, and maybe every family would have a special meal for only one night," said Dr. Nahid Pirnazar, UCLA professor of Judeo-Persian history. "Of course, we would light the candles for eight nights, but there was only one night of a feast."
The tradition of gift giving among Jews living in Iran is and has always been popular during Purim but has not been continued among Iranian Jews living in Southern California, Pirnazar said.
"For Norooz [Persian New Year], the Iranians have the tradition of receiving gifts from the elders," Pirnazar said. "Since this holiday normally coincides with Purim, the Jews in Iran also follow the same tradition and give gifts to those who are younger on this occasion."
Iranian Jewish parents living in Southern California have taken on the American Jewish tradition of giving gifts on Chanukah to their children but have only been doing so for the first night, Pirnazar said.
Iranian Jewish scholars said that while Iranian Jews today are using the Festival of Lights as a holiday to encourage community fundraising through events, within a few generations, the giving of gifts on Chanukah may become more commonplace.

The laughs outweigh the scares in "Baghead," a clever horror/comedy hybrid and the latest good time movie from filmmaker brothers Jay and Mark Duplass. The fact that there are shocks throughout the film confirms "Baghead's" best attribute. The Duplass Brothers, much admired for their 2005 Sundance film "The Puffy Chair" and standout figures in the cultish "Mumblecore" film movement, are growing as filmmakers. They're trying new things in "Baghead" and building upon their strengths as craftsmen of approachable characters, zippy dialogue and warm romance. As a result, "Baghead" premiering in the Spectrum program at the Sundance Film Festival, is the Duplass Brothers' best film yet.
Watching a friend's film gain acclaim at the Los Angeles Underground Film Festival inspire friends Chad (Steve Zissis), Catherine (Elise Muller) )and Matt (Ross Partridge) and Michelle (Greta Gerwig) to try and jumpstart their own careers. They head to a cabin in Big Bear California to write a script and create stellar roles for themselves. While there, a stranger with a rumpled brown paper bag over his head begins menacing them. At first it seems like a joke, but then, as his appearances multiple, the man with the bag over his head becomes somewhat frightening.
Greta Gerwig is charismatic and pretty as Michelle, a free spirit who attracts men with little ease. Elise Muller brings spunk as Catherine, an actress with a notch more experience than the rest of the gang. Ross Partridge stands out at the lumpy bud desperate to make Michelle love him. His puppy dog glances at Michelle are priceless. Steve Zissis is all charm and wit as Chad, the instigator to the let's write a script plan. There's not a false moment between these four friends thanks to their easygoing performances and the film's quality storytelling. "Baghead" contains all the good humor and everyday characters of earlier Duplass Brothers films blended with genre horror elements. The impact is more silly than frightening but the laughter-screaming combination turns out to be great fun.
What's familiar in "Baghead" is the Duplass Brothers' improvisational style of storytelling, shoestring production and trademark and close-up-fixated cinematography. That's a welcome relief. What's different is a youthful tale of friendship and romantic longing boosted by the appearance of a menacing figure with a bag over his head. Seldom has genre been this warm and fuzzy. "Baghead" is funny, a little scary but always honest.

Im 63 year old male, 58", about 151 lbs, 38.25" chest, and my waist (at my belly button with my old-age bulging stomach) is about 36.5", but my pants (I wear hip length pants) are a 32" "waist," but thats really a hip measurement, not a waist measurement.

hi- my husband would want this suit for swimming laps in an indoor pool. he is very skinny and gets cold after about a half hour. my question is -can he use this for regular swimming? he has a swim t shirt but not sure if it is working as well as something else might. he is 510" and weighs 120 lbs. thanks for any info you can give me. i hope this isnt a stupid question. :)
Hello Jan, When you are sizing a wet suit or dive skin the two most important measurements are your chest/bust and waist. Height is a secondary measurement and weight is the last measurement you would take into account. Yes this suit would work year round as long as the temp is above 70 degree. If it is lower than that I would suggest for you the: http://www.scuba.com/scuba-gear-42/150595/Pinnacle-5mm-Escape-5-Front-Zip-Mens-Shorty-Wetsuit.html that would work for 60 degree and up.
Advise on shorty wetsuits. I am 5-07" 170lbs 35 waist 38 chest Live in Hawaii. Which size?
The most important measurements any time you purchase a wetsuit using the manufacturer's sizing charts will always be your waist and chest/bust measurements. The suit needs to fit your torso correctly in order to do its job properly. Keep in mind there is no such thing as a comfortable wetsuit on the surface. You want it to be snug, but not cut off circulation to your extremities. The more snug it is, the thinner the layer of water your body is heating. If its too loose you will remain warm for awhile, but eventually your body won't be able to keep up with the greater amount of water flowing through the suit and you'll wind up getting cold faster. After that your height is a secondary measurement. The manufacturers realize that generally speaking your boots and gloves can overlap slightly short arms and legs, or the diver can push or roll up longer sleeves and/or arms if need be. Weight is a measurement the diver can usually ignore. It really has little to no bearing what so ever on the sizing and fit of your suit. The manufacturers do not take into account muscle being more dense than fat, so based simply on fitness levels 2 people can be the exact same size but quite different in weight. This measurement should only be used if the person is literally on the fence between 2 sizes in all categories.
Wanting to purchase this Head 2.5mm Wave shorty for Caribbean diving, but concerned about sizing. My vitals are 42" chest, 34 waist, 38.5 hips.......60, 190 lbs, and was leaning towards the LARGE. I wear large in other make/model full suits, but realize materials and manufacturers differ. Would appreciate any sizing input you can provide. Want to avoid the dreaded too big wetsuit that floods with too much water.

A rhinoplasty is simply nose surgery or a nose job. With this surgical procedure you can improve the appearance of your nose by changing its shape or size. Or maybe you just want your nose to look like it fits better with the rest of your facial features. You choose! This procedure can also be performed to correct birth defects or injuries.
The Procedure
Rhinoplasty is performed as an outpatient, normally under either general anesthesia or local with sedation. The incisions can be made just inside your nostrils or across the base of your nose, or at the lower outer corners of your nostrils, depending on what you are having done. Your nasal bones, cartilage, and soft tissues will be maneuvered to form the desired shape that you are wanting.
• Bruising
• Swelling
• Headaches
• Minimal bleeding
You will need to wear a cast or splint for about 7-10 days. Over-the-counter pain medication can be taken to help control any discomfort. Any external stitches will be removed about 4-6 days following your procedure, while internal ones will naturally dissolve. Bruising and swelling will normally fade in about 2-4 weeks. While you will take pleasure in the outcome of your new nose within several months of surgery, the final shape of your nose will take about 12-14 months to experience the full effect.

I disagree with many of the others as I think it is fine to go,with Tr beginning for a sibset. Just be careful with that if you plan more more children.
I do like Tristan. Tristan comes across as preppy to me. Travis seems like a very different style than Tristan as it comes across as very country and Southern. Trinity fits more with Travis though I tend to think of Trinity as urban, religious, recent immigrant.
I think if you are going to use Trinity, it works better with a more traditional, feminine middle name like Jane rather than Jade.
Other Tr names that might work, Trish, Tricia, Tracy, Trudy, Truly.
You could also go with T names: Tessa is beautiful.Gwendolyn Mae... Meredith Jane. ... Josephine Claire...Catherine Esme... Evelyn Grace ** Arlo Grant ... Drew Thomas ... Eli James ... Owen Vincent... Jay Theodore

We cannot deny the fact that hacking is becoming more prevalent in the internet world nowadays. In fact, we have heard of a lot of hacking incidents concerning government authorities and other high security computer networks. Well, obviously hacking has become a big problem that questions the security of the Internet. Aside from government authorities and other secured computer networks, personal e-mails and Facebook account has also become a favorite target by hackers out there. In fact, there is an ongoing rumor that there will be a November 5 hack attack on Facebook. So what is going to happen on November 5?
Apparently, Anonymous, a group of hackers is targeting Facebook on November 5. Anonymous has been popular for attacking various secured sites such as Bank of America, Sony and a lot more. November 5 has become a potential attack day because this day is the so-called Guy Fawkes Day, which is supposed to be a celebration of the saving of King James's life, but has turned into a day where most people speak the truth and voice out whatever they want. This might not really be the first time that we have heard of Facebook attacks, but this time this attack is rumored to be bigger because it intends to kill Facebook entirely.
Now the question is – "Will Anonymous really attack Facebook?" The good news is that the group has also been known for frequently using threats and warnings in order to make people more aware especially now that Facebook has been reported to be a target for abuse of user privacy. This will also leave Facebook users out there to think about how much information does this social networking site has and how it invades our privacy as an individual.
As Facebook users, we should always be careful about the information that we share online. Always think before you click in order to avoid any hacking incident. In addition to this, try to strengthen your internet security if you do not want your account to be hacked and your personal information to be compromised. Whether Anonymous will really attack Facebook or not, it would be best for us to protect our Facebook account and be responsible users online.

Realty firm Puravankara Projects today posted 89.11 per cent increase in net profit at Rs 50.19 crore for the second quarter ended September 30, mainly on the back of strong sales.
The company had reported a net profit of Rs 26.54 crore in the year-ago period.
Total revenues for the quarter grew by 37.81 per cent to Rs 273.02 crore from Rs 198.10 crore in the corresponding period last fiscal, the company said in a statement.
"Despite macro-economic challenges of high inflation, rising fiscal deficit and sluggish GDP growth, we experienced strong sales momentum in both new and completed projects this quarter," company's Chairman and Managing Director Ravi
Puravankara said.
During the quarter, the company sold 6.7 lakh sq ft as against 5.8 lakh sq ft in the corresponding period last year.
"We expect the healthy absorption rate to continue in the coming quarters," he said, adding, "We expect the industry to perform well in the coming quarters due to the recent policy reforms announced by the government, such as CRR reductions and liberalisation of FDI norms."

This chocolate pot with cups & saucers is very different looking. The flowing pattern is busy due to the fact that the flower pattern is quite large, not often seen on Chintz. The Myott & Son's factory burned in 1949 and all the records and pattern books were destroyed. This particular pattern name is unknown. The only two (2) known patterns of Myott are "Spring Flower" and Summer Flower".
As you can see in the photos, there is a combination of large roses and a busy leaf design on a chocolate brown background. This set is very handsome to say the least. I am assuming any collector of Chintz would be thrilled to add this set to their collection. It is definitely RARE!!
The chocolate pot is 7" high X 8" wide (outer handle to outer spout). The cups are 2 ¼" high X just under 3" across. The saucers are 4 ½" wide. The condition of the set is very good. There is some slight overall crazing which is to be expected. There are no chips, cracks or hairlines, circa 1929-30's.

Central Library, Copley Square (Rare Books Lobby)
March 7 to May 30, 2014
Monday-Friday: 9 a.m.-5 p.m.
Since the 17th century, American women have been writing and publishing novels, poetry, essays, histories, biographies, and short stories. Their texts influenced the tastes and perceptions of generations of both female and male readers alike. While readers can get a sense of these women through their published work, it is the letters that they wrote to friends, publishers, and one another that provide real insight into their personal worlds. This exhibition of books and manuscripts from the Boston Public Library's special collections illustrates the public and private lives of reputed writers such as Emily Dickinson, Louisa May Alcott, and Julia Ward Howe, as well as those of lesser-known authors such as Hannah Adams, Helen Hunt Jackson, and Annie Fields.
This exhibition has been organized in celebration of Women's History Month.

This is what we looked like on October 28, 2012. We have been working steadfastly to rebuild ever since.
As many of you know, Hurricane Sandy devastated the community of Red Hook, Brooklyn. She sent 15-foot waves crashing onto our shores and water flowing through the streets. By our restaurant, the flood covered the hood of our Landrover. In the middle of the storm we went out to rescue chickens that were stranded in their coop in the lot nextdoor. To do that, we were wading through chest-deep water. (Here's a good NYTimes story about it.)

The Champions League-winning winger withdrew from the squad to face Holland in a friendly on Wednesday with a leg muscle injury.
It is not the first time the 24-year-old has pulled out and former Wales manager Terry Yorath on Sunday warned Coleman having Bale available for friendlies will become more difficult.
But Coleman is confident he is not experiencing a repeat of what happened to a number of his predecessors in relation to Ryan Giggs.
"A lot was said about Ryan when he missed a lot of friendlies for us but I don't necessarily think that was his fault as there was a lot of pressure from Manchester United for him not to come and play," the Wales boss told Press Association Sport.
"He was the new George Best, a wonderkid, a sensation, and Manchester United wanted to look after him.
"I think now the game has moved on a bit. Gareth Bale is one of the best players in the world and he is up there with Ronaldo, playing in the same team.
"Look how many caps Ronaldo has got for Portugal - over 100 - he never misses. If it is good enough for Ronaldo it is good enough for anyone.
"To be fair in my time 'Baley' has come even when he has been injured because he wants to be around the team and supporting the team.
"We have never had an issue with him because he has already played friendlies for us, he has missed one or two but he has also played one or two."
Coleman admits there is a balancing act to be done with Bale, who has won 47 caps, as what he does not want to do is alienate Real Madrid in the longer-term by over-working one of their prized assets.
"There are a lot of games for top-level players who are playing league, cup, Champions League and international games," he added.
"Now and again they do need the rest but it is more the mental than the physical.
"I hope it doesn't come to the stage where we don't get Gareth for any friendlies.
"It is not something I have envisaged really. I hope he is the same in the future as he has been in the past.
"When he comes with us generally in friendlies he may play 45 minutes to an hour but we are mindful of sending him back in good condition - like all our players.
"If you take advantage and send players back who can't play at the weekend the next time you go calling their managers are like 'Well, you can't play them'.
"I've been there myself. We have a duty of care."
Coleman stressed he was not just singling out Bale as he expected all his players to be available for every game where possible but such is the Real Madrid player's profile the focus inevitably falls on him.
"The gauntlet is thrown down to our lads to say 'Who is going to be the one to top 100 caps?'," he added.
"If you look at the Serbians and Croatians and even England - Steven Gerrard, Frank Lampard, Ashley Cole are up there - with 100-plus caps.
"You do that by putting yourself up for all the games, not just the nice juicy ones worth three points.
"If you represent your country you represent your country and it is a huge honour to do that.
"Portugal have been playing tournament football and we want to do that but to play tournament football you sacrifice your summer and it is a small sacrifice.
"You can have as many holidays when you retire as you like but your best days are your playing days, playing for your country is the best experience in my opinion."

U.T. System Officials to Discuss Telecommunications Programs in Mexico
AUSTIN – Chancellor R.D. Burck and other officials from the University of Texas System will meet with government and education leaders in Mexico next week to discuss the use of telecommunications technology, student and faculty exchange programs, and joint research opportunities in medicine and higher education.
The U.T. System officials will attend technical meetings on April 8 and the Mexican government's High Level Conference on Tele-Medicine and Tele-Education on April 9. The meetings will be at Los Pinos, the official residence of President Vicente Fox near Mexico City.
"Our main objective in attending these meetings is to identify new opportunities for collaboration in medicine and education between the U.T. System and Mexican universities and health institutions," Burck said. "Telecommunication technologies offer exciting avenues for enhancing and expanding our numerous current relationships with institutions in Mexico. We want to learn more about Mexican institutions and how we might form new collaborations for our mutual benefit."
Participation of U.T. System officials has been arranged by Juan Hernandez, chief of the Presidential Office for the Attention of Mexicans Abroad as well as a faculty member at U.T. Dallas and an adviser to the U.T. System chancellor. Other members of the U.T. System delegation are Edwin R. Sharpe, executive vice chancellor for academic affairs; James C. Guckian, acting executive vice chancellor for health affairs; Armando Diaz, vice chancellor for community relations; and Rodolfo Hernández, director of the Center for U.S.-Mexico Studies at U.T. Dallas. Buddy Garcia, special assistant to the governor for border/Mexico affairs, will represent Gov. Rick Perry.
Mexican officials who will attend include Julio Frenk, secretary of health; Reyes Tamez Guerra, secretary of education; Rogelio Cárdenas, president of the University of Zacatecas; Enrique Doger, president of the Benemérita University of Puebla; and Jaime Parada Avila, general director of the Mexican Council of Science and Technology.

Air Seychelles, the national carrier of Seychelles will reintroduce direct flights between the Island of Mahe and Mumbai on December 1, 2014. The minister of tourism and culture, government of India and his counterpart from the Government of Seychelles had a meeting on August 4, 2014 to discuss about the direct flight connectivity. Air Seychelles will fly thrice weekly to Mumbai and one can reach Seychelles within four hours.
Speaking about the introduction of the direct flight, Alain St Ange, minister of tourism and culture, Government of Seychelles, said, India is one of the biggest potential markets for Seychelles. Presently, the total number of Indian tourist arrival in 2013 was 2381 and by introduction of a direct flight between the two countries, this figures will go up gradually. Another major reason behind the introduction is India provides a huge workforce in the construction segment to Seychelles.
The ministry of civil aviation, Government of India has officially lodged an application for Air Seychelles to land in India. In the coming two weeks, the ministry of civil aviation of both the countries are meeting to finalise and sign a bilateral agreement. Also, there is no visa requirement in Seychelles for an Indian tourist and one can acquire a 30 day visa-on-arrival which can be renewed for another month.

Crews battled six large fires in Central and Eastern Washington on Friday and Saturday amid concerns about hot and dry conditions that have prompted burn bans across the rest of the state.
The Mills Canyon fire, southwest of Entiat, grew by about 2 square miles to 34 square miles of grass and brush near Entiat, roughly midway between Seattle and Spokane.
More than 760 firefighters worked to contain the blaze Saturday. The fire threatened 231 structures, with residents of 109 structures under an evacuation order, according to the Northwest Interagency Coordination Center.
Hotshot crews from Washington and Oregon have continued work on the uncontained perimeter of the fire. On Saturday they were working to protect 14 homes along Roaring Creek, near the fire's northern edge. Another priority was digging fire lines along the southwestern edge to contain the blaze.

The Lake Spokane fire had burned more than one and a half square miles by Friday and was 30 percent contained. Residents at 60 homes were told to be prepared to leave at a moment's notice.
Six to 10 households were told to evacuate the area threatened by the 25 Mile Creek fire about 25 miles south of Lake Chelan. The fire, which was reported Thursday, remained at 400 acres Friday evening and was completely uncontained.
The Rock Hill fire, about 13 miles west of Mansfield in Douglas County, was fully contained by Friday. The fire burned three square miles, destroyed two homes and damaged six other structures.
The causes of the fires are unknown, according to the Northwest Interagency Coordination Center.
State officials have extended an outdoor burn ban to include all 13 million acres of lands that the state protects because they're worried hot, dry weather could increase fire danger
A heat wave throughout the state is projected to last into next week, increasing the potential for wildfire on both sides of the Cascades, according to the Department of Natural Resources. The National Weather Service has issued a heat advisory for most of the Puget Sound area from 11 a.m. Saturday to 6 a.m. Monday, with temperatures expected to reach 90 degrees every day through Tuesday, meteorologist Dana Felton said.
The longest streak of 90-plus degrees in the city is five days, set in 1941 and matched in 1981. Felton said it's possible this heat wave could break that record, especially since rain isn't forecast for at least seven more days. The temperatures are well above average; the normal high for this time of year is 75 degrees, Felton said.
"We're definitely locked into summertime," he said.
Temperatures will climb even higher east of the Cascades, with some places reaching 104 degrees this weekend and little relief from the heat overnight, according to the Weather Service.

NEW DELHI: Three legal experts have disagreed with parliamentary affairs minister Kamal Nath's claim that the notification dealing with FDI in multi-brand retail need be passed only by the Lok Sabha.
Section 48 of the Foreign Exchange Management Act, 1999, mandates the government to lay down all rules and regulations in the Lok Sabha as well as the Rajya Sabha, experts say. The section, they add, makes it clear that the rules have to be laid on the table of each House within 30 days — whether spread over one session or more.

Wow, I love the concept of a "way station" for commuters without other access to showers and storage. Plus training on site, and a chance to hang out and chat with (or just watch) bike mechanics - I love it. Almost makes me want to move!
Hopefully they will do it right. I'm tired of bike shops (at least the ones around me) that insist on storing all their parts "in back". I would probably spend a heck of a lot more money in my LBS if I could go in and actually browse the parts they have. Half the time I don't even know what I want and I end up buying it online. If you are that worried about shoplifting, store them in glass display cases or something.
Also have some sort of logic to the store layout. Why are tires in one corner of the store, and fenders in the opposite corner of the store? Bah, I'm just ranting. Every time I go to an LBS around me, I end up leaving frustrated.
I'm extremely glad Lance is throwing his weight into promoting the culture of commuting by bike.

Who are they? Established in Ayr in 1980 as a small surveying and estate agency practice, the Donald Ross Estate Agency business earned an outstanding reputation for selling high quality homes before being bought over in 2005. The company continues to grow and under its new name is now Ayrshire's leading estate agency, with progress being made in rental and letting sectors.
What was the challenge? The client recognised that the business and the market had matured and it was time to re-examine the entire corporate identity to better reflect the more contemporary, dynamic attitude of today.
It was felt that the established corporate identity was creating misperceptions within the marketplace: it was slowing the company down and did not reflect a forward-thinking business forever trying to offer a better, more innovative service.
However, care had to be taken not to compromise the signature approach of the company, which had earned a strong local reputation for the personal touch as well as open, honest professionalism in every detail.
How did Darwin home in on the solution? Considerable research confirmed, among many things, that buying or selling a house is an emotional experience, made more so by exceptional practical and financial factors. Additionally, females account for a predominantly high percentage of purchase decisions.
Darwin profiled the client as not simply a franchise or just a local office: Donald Ross Residential offers excellent specialist local knowledge, insights and advice, and the customer experience is to a very, very high standard, driven by the company's belief in putting the customer first. The Donald Ross Residential approach makes life as easy and stress-free as possible for every customer, who is appreciated as an individual.
The answer that emerged is light, bright and above all passionate. It's clean-cut, open and wears its heart on its sleeve – refreshing honesty and friendliness are prized assets of Donald Ross Residential. Colours and shapes were chosen to emphasise the energy and positivity that typifies the company, which all help it stand out in an environment that too readily settles for me-too solutions.

ChidambaramNew row in BJP: Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi angry at induction of Sabir Ali
DAYS after the furore over the induction of the Rama Senes Pramod Muthalik into the party, the Bharatiya Janata Party was hit by another controversy Friday with vice president Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi objecting to the party admitting JD(U) Muslim leader Sabir Ali in uncharacteristically strong language and even linking him to Indian Mujahideen co-founder Yasin Bhatkal.
Terrorist Bhatakal friend join BJP...soon accepting dawood (sic), Naqvi tweeted hours after Ali was inducted.
Mistakes made knowingly or unknowingly should be corrected immediately at the earliest, Naqvi subsequently told The Indian Express. He said if Muthaliks induction could be reversed following the outrage over him being seen as a Right-wing fanatic, the same could be applied to Ali too.
A controversial Muslim leader from Bihar, Ali was taken into the BJP even though some leaders had reservations as he is believed to support the views of Bhatkal, which runs counter to the BJPs strong stance against terrorism.
Naqvis sentiments were echoed by Rajeshwar Chaurasia, national secretary and an MLA in Bihar who has been working with Narendra Modis aide Amit Shah in UP. Chaurasia said Alis induction smelled of a conspiracy.
People like Sabir Ali are being brought into the party as part of a conspiracy. These kind of people who have often attacked RSS, BJP and even Narendra Modi should immediately be thrown out of the party, he said.
However, those backing Alis entry said Naqvi may have reacted strongly as he may be feeling threatened by another vocal Muslim leader. Bihar BJP sources said while Ali may not bring votes, he would be a handle to puncture Chief Minister Nitish Kumars pro-minority credentials.
Ali, who has praised Modi and attacked secular parties, said he had met BJP president Rajnath Singh and expressed interest in joining the party and was inducted at his behest.
Ali was expelled from the JD(U) after he praised Modi.
The BJP leadership is learnt to have taken a strong view over Naqvis public disapproval of Alis induction. Naqvi should substantiate his charges failing which he could face the heat from the leadership, a BJP source said, adding that the party was in discussion over handling the latest controversy.

June 28, EWR-LHR, British Airways B777, flight #188
After a tough working week I headed from Manhattan to Newark, taking the new Airlink Train. Good thing is: For the first time there is a train connection to any New York airport, bad thing: You have to get to Penn Station first and then transfer at "Newark Airport" to, yes, Newark Airport (taking another train!). Travel time Manhattan-EWR = 1 hour.
Once there I checked in at the deserted First Class Check In and was told to expect a two hour delay for the evening flight at 9pm. So I headed to the lounge and received a voucher there for a dinner in there lounge. It's a great invention because you can go to sleep right after take off and they serve two different menus from the First Class menu. Great service!
Our plane must have been one of the last B777's in the old Landor color, which doesn't look too bad.

Intellectual Property Causes Sparks to Fly in Paris
How do you solve a problem like Hadopi?
One of the key issues at stake at the e-G8 is the question of intellectual property online and its protection. France is famous for its Hadopi law — whereby online intellectual property thieves can have their Internet connections cut off after three warnings.
The law has been widely criticized as impractical. French President Nicolas Sarkozy recently called the it "imperfect" in a speech. But is piracy still a problem and, if so, how best to legislate against it?
In one of the most lively sessions of the day, old media heavyweights including the chief executive of Universal Music France, Pascal Negre, and 20th Century Fox Chairman Jim Gianopulos clashed with cyber activist John Perry Barlow over the issue.
It was put to Mr. Gianopulous that Netflix was now more popular than piracy and so Hollywood needn't continue the fight. "If Hollywood has won the battle for intellectual property, I didn't get the email," he said.
"Political process is imperfect in any country," Mr. Gianopulous said. But if an agreement between users fails, then "government should have a role."
Mr. Perry Barlow retorted: "I think we are on a different planet. We are imposing business practices from another era on the future whether they are productive or not … If you start with tntellectual property you end up with speech you don't like."
Over the applause, Mr. Negre said that the bearded Mr. Perry Barlow had no idea about the music industry. He pointed to Spain, which Mr. Negre says has the worst piracy record in Europe. "Last year there was no new talent in the top 10," Mr. Negre said. To take the risk of investing in talent, record labels had to be sure to recoup the rewards. Instead he wanted a new agreement between creative industries and governments across the world.
However as Mr. Perry Barlow points out: "People want to pay for your guys' products…nobody wants to wait for 11 hours while a movie downloads on BitTorrent."
None of the participants suggested a system would ensure a better legal way to download.
French Culture Minister Frederic Mitterrand simply warned that regulation could keep up with technological change. "The policeman can evolve," he said.

Is Dating Bradley Cooper A Good Idea For Jennifer Lopez?
By Mack Rawden 5 years ago
Its been a crazy few months for Jennifer Lopez. The pop star separated from her husband and the father of her children Marc Anthony, and then the press had a field day with rumors that the split may have stemmed from a possible affair he had with Jada Pinkett Smith. Those wild accusations were never proven, but regardless of what happened, she ended up a single woman. Now her dating choices are fodder for gossip, and the current rumor going around is that shes getting involved with Hangover star Bradley Cooper.
News of a first date broke last month when the pair were spotted having dinner at New Yorks Per Se restaurant. Witnesses called the encounter quiet and romantic, but when nothing seemed to come of the night, media reports wrote it off as simply a dinner. Well, according to TMZ, she was spotted in Coopers car yesterday, and sources close to the potential couple have said theyre casually dating.
Over the past few years, Bradley Cooper has earned the reputation in Hollywood as a bit of a ladies man. Rumors have placed him with everyone from Denise Richards to Jennifer Aniston, but apart from a brief marriage to Jennifer Esposito, hes never really made a serious commitment. Maybe hes just the type of guy Jennifer Lopez needs to get over her long-term relationship. Then again, maybe this is a sign shes headed down a poor road. What do you think? Is Bradley Cooper a good idea for Jennifer Lopez? Sound off by voting in the poll below

Hello, I have a bike ride ( thepeaceride.com ) coming up and it's going to be 4 days 238 miles total and will be at 7,000 - 10,000 ft with 3 steep mountain climbs the first day. I've been researching and it looks like I need a touring bike more than a road bike. Any ideas of where to look for a good (or not so good) climber?
Here is the only thing I could find that might work.
Any thoughts?
Thanks for the help!

Suits Any Shape or Size of Garden
Available in 3 different sized rolls to suit your garden's/chickens' needs. You can also make any shape you like, rather than just squares or rectangles.

- Janette,
Fencing is fine except the pegs are too flimsy. Bend so easily. We had to buy stronger ones from Big W.
Omlet Chicken Fencing - Moira, Cheshire,
The Omlet fencing is just what we needed to keep our chickens in the garden area where they are free to roam and off the patio and raised flower beds that they found so tasty. Well worth the money and so easy to put up.
Fantastic Fence - Noeleen,
I bought Omlet fencing (21metres) to partition off my yard so the chickens couldn't come onto our patio area. It's been really fantastic. We have 4 leghorns and it's kept them contained to their area, and now I'm not constantly cleaning chicken poop up off my patio and outdoor furniture, yay ! We've had some very stormy weather over the past couple of days and the fence stayed up even with out the guy ropes. It's easy to use and easy to move when needed. Obviously the fence isn't predator proof , but we don't need it for that and our chickens are closed up in their pen and coop at night. I'm extremely happy with my purchase and highly recommend it for similar use.
Happy Chooks - Karen,
Thank you for sending the fence and stamp so quickly. We have set up the fence and I love it. My chooks can have a bit of free-range but I can still garden without them digging out what I have just planted. happy chooks and happy gardener.
21 m chicken fencing - Sam,
The fencing is very useful and I am able to move it easily. However, my naughty little Pekin Bantams are able to jump up and pop out through the larger holes in the fence. They can't get through the lower small holes so I would have been better if the smaller holes went higher up fence and not only at the bottom.

Canines of all sizes and shapes hop on surfboards and take on the Pacific Ocean waves in California.
17:35, UK, Monday 14 July 2014
Dog owners have brought their pets out to a California beach to see which ones could take the waves the most effectively.
The canines at the 2014 Unleashed by Petco Surf Dog Competition were of all shapes, sizes and breeds.
Some owners even dressed their pets up like characters such as the Muppets.
First prize for large dogs went to Hanzo, a defending champion owned by Eric Felland of Hollywood.
"I credit my success to Hanzo's enthusiasm for surfing," Mr Felland said.
"He loves what he does, and people really see that he really love to surf, so I think that's the enjoyment people get when they watch him surf."
The winner got a $250 (£145) gift card for dog treats and toys.
Some owners train their dogs ahead of the annual competition - but they insist surfing can be a bonding experience and, above all, that the dogs enjoy it.
"The key is knowing what your dog likes," said James Wall of San Diego.
"When a dog jumps on the board cause they love being on the board that's not very cruel."
