is the method by which we prepare today to afford the
improvements of tomorrow."[1]
Island, unfortunately, failed to prepare for tomorrow. Its
problems all came to a breaking point in 2009, at the depth
of the recession, at which time government officials realized
they needed to address the depletion of funding in the state
and municipal employee retirement systems.[2] As a result, in
2009 and 2010, the General Assembly amended the statutes
governing the pension system, changing the retirement age and
reducing the cost-of-living adjustment (COLA). See
P.L. 2009, ch. 68, art. 7; P.L. 2010, ch. 23, art. 16;
see also G.L. 1956 chapters 8, 9, 10, and 10.1 of
title 36; G.L. 1956 chapter 21 of title 45. In 2011, the
General Assembly took more drastic action and passed the
Rhode Island Retirement Security Act of 2011 (RIRSA), which
abridged the retirement benefits of state and municipal
employees even further. See P.L. 2011, chs. 408 and
409. In response, a number of lawsuits were filed by various
state and municipal unions on behalf of their affected
these appeals, we are asked to review a class-action
settlement that was approved by a Superior Court trial
justice in 2015. That class action was filed in April 2015
for settlement purposes only by the following parties: the
Rhode Island Public Employees' Retiree Coalition
(RIPERC); the Rhode Island American Federation of
Teachers/Retirees, Local 8037 (AFT/R); Roger Boudreau;
Michael Connolly; Kevin Schnell; the Rhode Island Council 94,
AFSCME, AFL-CIO; the National Education Association-Rhode
Island (NEARI); John Lavery; Michael McDonald; Jason Kane;
Amy Mullen; Susan Verdon; the Rhode Island State Association
of Firefighters; Raymond Furtado; and James Richards
(collectively, the Union plaintiffs). The class action was
filed against both state and municipal defendants. The state
defendants are the following: Gina M. Raimondo, in her
capacity as Governor of the State of Rhode Island; Seth
Magaziner, in his capacity as General Treasurer of the State
of Rhode Island; and the Employees' Retirement System of
the State of Rhode Island, by and through the Rhode Island
Retirement Board, by and through Magaziner, in his capacity
as Chairman of the Retirement Board; and Frank J. Karpinski,
in his capacity as Secretary of the Retirement Board
(collectively, the state defendants). The municipal
defendants are the towns of Barrington, Middletown, and South
Kingstown (collectively, the municipal defendants). While the
Union plaintiffs approved of the settlement, filing briefs in
this appeal in support of the state defendants, two groups of
class-member plaintiffs appealed the trial justice's
approval of the settlement in two separate actions, now
consolidated on appeal. Those opponents are "the
Clifford plaintiffs"[3] and "the Retiree
plaintiffs."[4] For the reasons set forth in this opinion,
we affirm the judgment of the Superior Court.
and Travel
State Employees' Retirement System
Rhode Island, the state retirement board administers the
state employees' retirement system-the Employees'
Retirement System of Rhode Island (ERSRI)-and the municipal
employees' retirement system-the Municipal Employees
Retirement System (MERS).[5] See G.L. 1956 §§
36-8-2 and 36-8-4(a). MERS, "which includes locally
funded plans[, ]" was established in 1951. Andre S.
Digou, A View of the Rhode Island Pension Landscape:
The Potential Reform of Local Pension Plans Under
the Preemption Doctrine, 19 Roger Williams U. L. Rev.
740, 741 (2014). Rhode Island "pools plan funds for
investment purposes, " and the Rhode Island general
treasurer chairs the retirement board; he or she "is
responsible for the [system's] investment decisions and
setting asset allocation strategies * * *." Id.
at 741-42.
2009, the General Assembly enacted legislation that
effectively redefined the service and/or age requirements for
present employees. See P.L. 2009, ch. 68, art. 7.
The following year, the General Assembly made further
amendments, curtailing the COLA to "the first * * * $35,
000 * * * of retirement allowance, " and requiring that
it not "commence [until] the third (3rd) anniversary of
the date of retirement or when the retiree reaches age
sixty-five (65), whichever is later." P.L. 2010, ch. 23,
art. 16.
2011, as part of its legislative findings in passing RIRSA,
the General Assembly explained its reasons for adopting the
act as follows:
"(1) The State of Rhode Island has one of the lowest
funded and most vulnerable statewide pension systems in the
"* * *
"(4) The state retirement system's unfunded
liability exceeds $7 billion as measured by well-established
and accepted public accounting standards.
"(6) Annual government contributions to ERSRI more than
doubled between fiscal years 2005 and 2011 and those
contributions are estimated to double again in fiscal year
2013 to exceed over $600 million. Without immediate and
comprehensive legislative action future contributions will
continue to grow dramatically and exceed $1 billion * * * in
necessary annual contributions.
"(7) If pension contributions continue to grow at the
current and projected levels, they will be unaffordable and
the pension security of our valued public employees will be
placed in jeopardy." P.L. 2011, ch. 408, § 1.
response to all of these fiscal issues facing the state,
RIRSA included a minimum retirement age for certain employees
and also made changes to the COLAs. P.L. 2011, ch. 408,
§ 7. Specifically, and at issue in this appeal, RIRSA
stopped paying annual COLAs "until the state's
pension plans [were] 80% funded overall[, ]" which, as
expressed by both sets of plaintiffs at oral argument in this
appeal, is indefinite. Christopher D. Hu, Reforming
Public Pensions in Rhode Island, 23 Stan. L.
& Pol'y Rev. 523, 527 (2012).
Filed by Unions and Retiree Associations
the passage of RIRSA, state and municipal employees suffered
a severe diminution of their anticipated retirement benefits.
This led to the filing of a number of lawsuits commencing in
2010 that challenged the enactment of the 2009 and 2010
amendments and RIRSA, which came to be known as "the
pension cases."
first lawsuit was filed in 2010 by a number of unions
representing state employees and teachers, alleging that the
2009 and 2010 amendments violated the Contract, Takings, and
Due Process Clauses of the Rhode Island Constitution. Then,
in 2012, five lawsuits were brought on behalf of various
unions and retirement associations challenging RIRSA,
alleging the same constitutional claims as alleged in the
2010 lawsuit.
2013, all parties involved in both the 2010 and 2012 cases
were ordered to attend mediation. After months of mediation,
the parties reached a proposed settlement in February 2014,
subject to approval by all members of the unions. The
parties, however, failed to secure the necessary vote from
the members, and so the litigation continued. In 2014, three
more cases alleging similar claims were filed, one of which
was the so-called "Clifford" case, by a group of
individual retirees. The lawsuits were eventually
parties engaged in extensive discovery-defendants produced
more than 700 gigabytes of electronic documents and over four
million pages of documents. The parties began preparation for
a trial scheduled on April 20, 2015. In March 2015, the trial
justice assigned a special master to oversee any remaining
discovery issues; after the special master had worked with
the parties, he announced that all parties except one group
of plaintiffs[6] had reached a settlement approved by a
majority of the group members.
on April 13, 2015, the parties filed a class-action lawsuit
to implement the settlement, move for class certification,
and appoint class representatives and class counsel. The
parties also sought initial approval of the settlement terms
and approval of notice procedures of the settlement to all
members of the class action.
April 16, 2015, after hearing argument on the motions, the
trial justice issued a written decision granting the Union
plaintiffs' motion for class certification in accordance
with Rule 23(b)(2) of the Superior Court Rules of Civil
Procedure, designating the class representatives and
appointing class counsel for plaintiffs and defendants.
plaintiff class was defined as follows:
"All persons (and/or their beneficiaries) who, on or
before July 1, 2015, are receiving benefits or are
participating in the State Employees, Teachers, or Municipal
Employees' retirement systems administered by ERSRI and
all future employees, excepting only those individuals who on
July 1, 2015, are participating in a municipal retirement
system administered by ERSRI for municipal police officers in
any municipality and/or for fire personnel of the City of
the trial justice certified a number of plaintiff subclasses,
described as follows:
"State Employees and Teachers: Participants in the
Teachers and State Employees Retirement System (ERS) who are
employed on or before July 1, 2015, but who have not retired
as of June 30, 2015 and all future employees;
"Participants in the Municipal Employees Retirement
System (MERS), other than police or fire units: Participants
in MERS, other than police or fire units, employed on or
before July 1, 2015, but who have not retired as of June 30,
2015 and all future employees;
"Participants in all fire MERS units, except for fire
personnel of Cranston: Participants in all fire MERS units,
except for fire personnel of Cranston, employed on or before
July 1, 2015, but who have not retired as of June 30, 2015
and all future employees;
"Retirees: All retired members and beneficiaries of
retired members who retired on or before June 30, 2015, who
are receiving a retirement benefit under ERS or any MERS
trial justice also certified the following defendant class:
"All municipal entities that participate in MERS and all
municipal entities that employ teachers who participate in
the state employees and teachers' ERS."
As part
of her decision, the trial justice summarized the terms of
the proposed settlement as follows:
"A one-time COLA payment of 2% applied to the first $25,
000 of the pension benefit and that amount added to the base
benefit will be paid to retirees (or their beneficiaries) who
participate in a COLA program and who retired on or before
June 30, 2012 as soon as administratively reasonable
following the passage of the legislation based on the amount
of benefit payable on the effective date of the legislation.
"For funds that are not already funded, the settlement
shortens the time intervals between suspended COLA payments
from once every five years to once every four years. The
settlement also improves the COLA limitation for current
retirees whose COLA is suspended. The settlement also
requires a more favorable indexing of COLA Cap for all
current and future retirees. The settlement also changes the
COLA calculation to one more likely to produce a positive
number and dictates that the COLA formula will be calculated
annually, regardless of funding level, and when paid, the
COLA will be compounded for all receiving a COLA.
"Current retirees (or their beneficiaries) who have or
will have retired on or before June 30, 2015 will receive two
payments: (1) a one-time $500.00 stipend (not added to the
COLA base) within sixty days of the enactment of the
legislation approving the terms of the settlement and (2) a
one-time $500 stipend payable one year later.
"For State Workers, Teachers, and General MERS, the
settlement (1)adds another calculation to reduce the minimum
retirement age; (2)improves the available accrual rate for
employees with twenty years or more of service as of June 30,
2012; (3) requires increased contributions by the employer to
the Defined Contribution Plan for employees with ten or more
years of service (but less than twenty) as of June 30, 2012;
(4) waives the administration fee for any employees
participating in the Defined Contribution Plan who make $35,
000 or less; and (5) adds another calculation designed to
limit the impact of the 'anti-spiking' rule imposed
by the RIRSA on part-time employees.
"For MERS Firefighters (excluding Cranston
Firefighters), the settlement (1) lowers the age and service
requirements for retirement; (2) increases the accrual rate
for Firefighters who retire at age fifty-seven with thirty
years of service.
"For State Correctional Officers, the settlement
increases the accrual rate for correctional officers with
fewer than twenty-five years of service as of June 30, 2012.
"The settlement reduces the impact of an early

're-amortize'; that is, partially refinance, to be

A T-shirt (or t shirt, or tee) is a style of unisex fabric shirt named after the T shape of its body and sleeves. It normally has short sleeves and a round neckline, known as a crew neck, which lacks a collar. T-shirts are generally made of a light, inexpensive fabric and are easy to clean. Typically made of cotton textile in a stockinette or jersey knit, it has a distinctively pliable texture compared to shirts made of woven cloth. Most modern versions have a body made from a continuously woven tube, produced on a circular loom, such that the torso has no side seams. The manufacture of T-shirts has become highly automated and may include cutting fabric with a laser or a water jet. The T-shirt evolved from undergarments used in the 19th century and, in the mid-20th century, transitioned from undergarment to general-use casual clothing. A V-neck T-shirt has a V-shaped neckline, as opposed to the round neckline of the more common crew neck shirt (also called a U-neck). V-necks were introduced so that the neckline of the shirt does not show when worn beneath an outer shirt, as would that of a crew neck shirt.
Custom T-shirt
My name is Helen, and I want to have a party next month. In order to make the party more successful. I'd like to buy some custom T – shirts. I went to the local store, but it was really expensive. And then I decided to check. If there is an internet shop for me. When I search on the Internet, I found a website called Brightent, which sells custom T-shirts. I design t – shirts and ask the customer service to do what I like.
Very good quality of the T-shirts
Now I got a T – shirt. The quality is very good and the price is very good. When my friends see these T – shirts, they all like it very much. I recommend this website to them, and they want to buy some for their family.

This has been a good book week, I think. Here's where I stand:
Going Postal (review to follow)
In progress:
House of Leaves - I'm allocating 30 minutes a day to this. I will finish it!
The Princess Bride - This book is so great so far! When I first saw the movie almost 20 years ago (OMG, how on earth has that been 20 years????) I thought it was incredibly stupid. But over the years, it really grew on me. This is supposed to be a "side read," with me only reading it during our family reading time, it seems to have maneuvered itself into "main book" position.
The Good Earth - I just started this on Wednesday or Thursday. At first I wasn't sure I was going to enjoy it, but I seem to be getting drawn into it. This was supposed to be my new "main" book, but it's sort of become my lunchtime/wait-for-the-shuttle book.
Outlander - Still plugging along on this audiobook. I've become emotionally involved with the characters now...
Vampirates - The fam's still enjoying this one.
Fast Food Nation - I say this in progress, but I haven't read any of it this week. Not sure I'm invested in it yet.
Starting this week:
Aurora County All-Stars - This is the third novel by Deborah Wiles, all based in rural Mississippi. The first two were just so good: Each Little Bird that Sings and Love, Ruby Lavender. This isn't a series, but they're all interconnected, if only by a reoccurring character or two. My daughter and I are going to listen to All-Stars on our morning commute.
I was going to do a challenge update, but I think I'll make that a monthly post and wait until 11/1 to do an update.

BVA in Fine Arts (Hons) Australian Fine Artist and Writer
Green is Greener -
'The Australian Dream' 2002
Installation of work at SOApBox gallery in Brisbane and Funded by Queensland Government, Arts Queensland
Searching for the picturesque...Close your eyes... now visualise the most perfect landscape or simply a perfectly civilised suburb. Is it green? Is there lots of lovely lush green grass on the rolling hills? Are the lawns neatly edged and clipped? Maybe you have a few strategically placed gum trees on the horizon or carefully maintained in regimental lines down the street, but are they enough to sustain a colony of Koalas?
The exhibition 'Green is Greener'- 'The Australian Dream' considers the part that cultural notions play in shaping our practices relating to the urban sprawl and it's effects on the Australian environment.
The exhibition reflected upon some of the consequences of 'TheAustralian Dream'. Everybody wants to own the house on a plot of land. The castle surrounded by a moat of green grass. We tenderly water, cut and fertilise our grass to maintain that brilliant green reminiscent of Europe.
Woe be tide the digging bandicoot or assorted insects that may create varying blemishes to the uniformity of our green grass. Gum trees don't fit the picture. They are either too big for the myriad electrical lines that criss cross over head, or they drop leaves, branches, gum nuts etc... that destroy our precious grass.
The exhibition used a variety of mediums that have been used traditionally to demonstrate to us what is 'beautiful'or 'picturesque' in the landscape. Painting and film continue to play their part in helping to shape our beliefs of what is valuable or desirable and what is necessary in the choices that we make.
The green lawn is an alien concept when related to the pristine areas of Australia's environment and may signify more about our secret need to control the organic. Is this civilised behaviour?

Learn English playing beautiful football – MANCHESTER CITY
The name Manchester makes most people think of The Beautiful Game, as this northern English town is only home to two of the bitter rivals and famous football club names ! Following the big success of the Manchester United Soccer & Language Schools, whose marketing in Southeastern Europe is exclusive to the Verbalists Language Network, we are excited to be able to give the opposing team a fair play – by introducing the Manchester City Football Language School, in the heart of none other than their Etihad campus! Now you can decide, are you Man City or Man Untd?
The City football schools' program is unique as it combines on and off-field learning, in an authentic setting – the recently built state-of-the-art training Academy where Man City's first team also practices. As a feature of the course, you will not only get an exclusive insight into how Manchester City players train at the City Football Academy and how a Premier League club runs, but you will also interact with other players from different cultures across the world.
Groups are formed according to the level of English and football skills, so everyone can join, as people from all over the world attend this program – show off your skills and learn from others during the course.
Quality on and off the field
The Life Changing Learning aspect means that the teaching doesn't take place in one location; it takes place in classrooms, on the pitch, in the media center… the list goes on. The students learn by being shown and experiencing themselves what a successful player's career development consists of. During the course there are various extracurricular activities, such as excursions, visits to the National Museum of Football and of course, a guided tour of the Etihad stadium! Upon finishing the course, the young player will receive a certificate acknowledging his or her hard work and achievements on and off-pitch.
The coaches are fully qualified and experienced Man City trainers, and the teaching staff at the language workshops are certified CELTA professionals, who also have an avid passion for football, giving you an opportunity to discover your potential and find out "Who could you become?"
Accredited program supported by the accredited Verbalists Language Network
The program is accredited by British Council as well as EAQUALS. The EAQUALS inspectors identified points of excellence in the following categories: teaching & learning, course design and supporting systems, academic resources, and client services. EAQUALS is an industry-trusted organization whose aim is to promote and guarantee high quality in language teaching and learning worldwide.
The Verbalists Language Network is accredited by the world's leading, independent accreditation bodies in student recruiting, language teaching and learning. See more about our international accreditation and certifications here.
You can expect 15 hours of football training per week, in the mornings. The sessions cover individual skills development, as well as team play. You will go through performance tests, strength conditioning exercises, learning new tactics and much more.
To be able to play as a great team, communication is all, which is why the program also covers 15 hours of English language teaching per week. The topics covered are football related – exactly like those taught to the most successful football players in the world. You will have match analysis workshops, nutrition and healthy eating sessions as well as press conference situations and role play, teaching you how to use language in the most effective way when under the spotlight – yes, these are all aspects of day to day lives of famous sportsmen. All course material is included in the price and provided for on the first day of the program.
Every player needs to rest, and so the evenings are dedicated to developing new friendships, playing games and various other activities, organized by the school.
Excursions and social activities
There is no space for boredom, as activities are held every evening, and excursions every week-end. Some of the exciting things you will have the chance to participate in are film and quiz nights, barbecues, talent shows and many more. If that is not enough, there are excursions to some of the most popular tourist attractions – especially for football fans, as it includes a guided tour of the place where all the greats such as Aguero, Kompany or Kolarov meet – the Etihad stadium.
There is also a visit to the National Museum of Football in Manchester, to the mysterious York Dungeons in York, or even a day at the beach in Blackpool, the preferred holiday destinations of the Brits!
During the two weeks (14 days, 13 nights), you will be staying in a modern student hall residence, Sheavyn House, part of the Manchester University campus. The single en-suite rooms are comfortable and in a safe environment. There are three hot meals a day (full-board), with the breakfast and dinner served in the student accommodation, and lunch served in the training facility.
Students have access to Wi-Fi, laundry facilities (staff can help with the use of washers/dryers, approximately £2 per machine), common room for games and hanging out, a 24/7 reception desk, and study desk in the room.
Sheavyn House residence is a 20 minute private coach ride from the training facilities. Transport is organized by the Academy every morning and afternoon, as well as for the week-end excursions.
Each working day begins and ends with Daily Team Talks at Connell college. Connell college is a modern facility where all the classes, language and media sessions are held. It is where the students have their lunch together. The College's changing rooms conveniently lead directly onto the pitch – one of the main reasons why Man City's youth players use them frequently during the whole year. The students have exclusive access to these changing rooms during the program.

James Comey's unexpected ouster last Tuesday sent Washington into an unprecedented tailspin as the White House communications apparatus tried to explain away Donald Trump's seemingly abrupt decision to fire the man heading the Justice Department investigation into his campaign's alleged Kremlin ties. But, one week later, that scandal seems rather quaint by comparison. In another twist in the seemingly endless Russian melodrama, The New York Times' Michael S. Schmidt reported that Trump explicitly asked Comey to shutter the F.B.I. investigation into Mike Flynn, his former national security adviser, shortly after his inauguration.
"I hope you can see your way clear to letting this go, to letting Flynn go," the president said, according to a memo that Comey prepared after the meeting, part of which was read to the New York Times by an associate of the former law enforcement official. "He is a good guy. I hope you can let this go." Comey reportedly responded, "I agree he is a good guy," but did not promise to close the probe. The existence of the memo was quickly confirmed by NBC News and The Washington Post. (Trump and his associates have denied any wrongdoing.)
According to the Times report, the conversation between Trump and Comey took place in the Oval Office on February 14—the day after Flynn resigned amid scandal following the Post's report that the former general had misled White House officials, notably Vice President Mike Pence, about whether he discussed election-related sanctions against Moscow with Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak. Comey reportedly informed other F.B.I. officials of the existence of the memo, which sources told the Times was part of a broader paper trail kept by the seasoned law enforcement officer, detailing his interactions with the president. According to those two sources, Comey took detailed notes on every phone call and meeting he had with the president.
The White House flatly denied the Times report. "While the president has repeatedly expressed his view that General Flynn is a decent man who served and protected our country, the president has never asked Mr. Comey or anyone else to end any investigation, including any investigation involving General Flynn," an official said in a statement. "The president has the utmost respect for our law enforcement agencies, and all investigations. This is not a truthful or accurate portrayal of the conversation between the president and Mr. Comey."

Direct Mail Spotlight: Xerox
Direct mail marketers conventionally treat business and consumer mail as separate disciplines and may even specialize in only one or the other. However, it's important to remember that B-to-B prospects, while acting in a business role, are still motivated by the same desires and emotions as ordinary consumers.
As in consumer direct mail, appealing to a B-to-B prospects' sense of curiosity, tempting them with a free gift, and offering real value and cost savings can get your mailer opened and response up. In its recent Phaser 7760 color printer lead generation effort, Xerox loads its outer envelope with an iPhone sweepstakes, rebate incentives and a curious die-cut with candy peeking through to draw B-to-B prospects inside.
Xerox mailed its lead generation effort in June to a large segment of graphic arts prospects who have needs for high-quality color. The outer copy, "Irresistible. Mouth-watering color so accurate, it's PANTONE approved," and image of a hand ripping through the envelope and revealing colorful candy inside get prospects curious. On the back of the outer there's an offer to win a free iPhone with a picture of the device as well as a $400 mail-in rebate for the printer (Archive Code #812-171839-0806).
If the prospect tears through the envelope, as the image of the hand on the outer suggests, inside is a candy-card print sample produced on the Phaser 7760 color printer itself. The print sample goes through a lot of quality control because it is integral in converting the lead. "We have an in-house print shop that runs pieces on our printers, so it's very similar to a press check at a commercial printer," says Ami Danielson, a direct mail manager for Xerox. Xerox teamed with Anderson Direct Marketing, a Poway, Calif.-based full-service direct marketing agency.
A three-paneled brochure further details the printer specifications and restates the iPhone and rebate offers and deadlines. Xerox finds it important to get the mix of technical and sales copy right for its audience. "This isn't a product spec sheet. It's trying to get the customer to understand how it can help them in their daily business," Danielson says.

Clad in a leather jacket, a nervous participant puffed away on a cigarette at the start line. Elsewhere, as club music pumped through nearby speakers, Miss Davida Jones waved to her fans, dressed in a Halloween-themed satin robe over black lace lingerie.
At the start line, participants gripped pumpkins by the stem or held them tight and secure under their arm, similar to the hold of a running back with a football. It was clear that the 2018 High Heel Drag Race would not be like any other 200-meter contest.
Matt Hanson, president of race sponsor New Hope Celebrates, which promotes diversity and inclusivity, said the event started back in the 1970s or '80s as a gag among some friends, but it has really taken off the last few years.
"Since the '30s, there have been houses that LGBTQ people would meet and have drinks and get to know each other at little private drinking clubs," Hanson said. "We love to celebrate everyone in this town. That's what this event kind of says, we have straight people running, LGBTQ people, allies, everyone's welcome."
This one-block race in New Hope, Pennsylvania, is quite simple. Runners must wear heels and some type of drag or skirt—the outfits ranged from custom-made dresses to tight, colorful bodysuits.
"This is a Bobbie Pinz wig. This is a custom-made one-piece, I forget who made it," said Steven Ennis, as his fishnet-wearing, Jersey Shore-inspired character Coco Loco. "The boots are like a Hustler brand boot that I rhinestoned."
Then, they must carry a pumpkin up a 100-meter long hill, where a table with art supplies awaits. After decorating the pumpkin, they must make it back down the hill in one piece.
"It's a hodgepodge of love and awesomeness is what we're seeing here tonight," said participant Kelleen Gebler, founder of the New Hope Run Club.
Gebler is an avid runner, but her runs are usually completed in Brooks or Newtons. Speaking to Runner's World as Kiki, she wore purple heels and her friend's prom gown.
"Go big or go home is my decorating strategy," Gebler said. "And glitter. Glitter always wins."
An estimated 1,500 spectators packed into the one-block section of Mechanic Street to take in the sea of sashes and sequins. Festivities included runway-style introductions and a performance of The Pointer Sisters' classic "I'm So Excited."
When the race finally began, only a handful of the 15 participants took off at full speed. It was evident the rest were putting health over glory.
"It's day number one in high heels," said first-time participant Bruce Burns. "I definitely don't have any intentions of winning the race, but at least I'll walk home."
[Smash your goals with a Runner's World Training Plan, designed for any speed and any distance.]
Aviva Daniels of New Hope was the first across the finish line with a time of just over 30 seconds. When asked about the large smile drawn on the pumpkin, Daniels merely said, "That's how I feel." For the victory, Daniels was awarded a night out at various local bars and restaurants, valued at about $200.
In total, the 2018 running raised $2,700. The funds raised will benefit New Hope Celebrates and go toward LGBTQ-friendly events in the borough, such as the annual Pride festivities.
