Everyone's favorite ancient Fed chair found himself having a neighborly chat with some government commission today, about who wasn't to blame for the financial meltdown. Surprisingly, Greenspan is blaming literally every single person on earth except the Fed. Even Communists, in the first paragraph of his prepared statement. It was the global proliferation of securitized […]

Okay, it's the closest he's come to admitting he did it: The Crisis, by Alan Greenspan. It sounds like an airport novel. But the 66-page paper is the closest we've ever gotten to a mea culpa from the former Fed chief, who chaired the US central bank in the midst of a growing housing bubble. […]

Ha ha, scare headline. So now Alan Greenspan is advocating that banks too big to fail should be broken up into lots of tiny little banks, like Constructicons. Yes, that same Alan Greenspan who partied with Ayn Rand and was unable to even pronounce the word "regulation" until his fifty-third birthday. "If they're too big […]

EXO off to an explosive start
Text: Lim Wen Ying
Having big names such as TVXQ! and Super Junior as their seniors, 12-member Chinese-South Korean boyband EXO (divided into subgroups EXO-K and EXO-M for different markets) officially debuted in April under watchful eyes of the public.
Besides well-honed dance skills and an impactful title track, all these -- together with the huge debut hype fueled by SM Entertainment -- meant there was no reason for EXO to fail.
And succeed they did, with their debut EP MAMA ranking high on charts in both China and South Korea. According to Korean media, at the end of their two-month promotional period, MAMA has sold a remarkable total of 152,255 units (both EXO-K and EXO-M's versions).
In an exclusive e-mail interview with xinmsn, prior to their first performance in Singapore, EXO-M's Kris shared their gratitude towards fans from all over the world for their enormous support.
"Every time we meet the fans, we have so many things to say, but mostly we want to thank everyone for the support. We hope to work hard and show our appreciation through our wonderful performances."
EXO-K's Kai mentioned that before they debuted, they could only dance and sing by themselves, but now they are able to showcase their dance and singing in front of fans that enjoy the performance, making them really happy and appreciative.
As commoners turned idols, EXO-M's Lu Han cited the presence of fans as the biggest change as well.
"For this reason, all the members started taking care of our appearances more on daily basis," the Chinese lad added.

Know your product. Great advice for a sales rep. But critical for a job seeker. A sales rep can say "I don't know the answer to that, but I'll find out and get back to you." You can't. The resume is a starting point to knowing and selling your product (you), and yes, it is required. But no, it's not magic and no, it won't get you the job.

Manchester man faces felony charge for allegedly firing a shotgun out window
Marsalis Johnson, 21, of 215 Wilson St., is accused of firing the shotgun out a window about 4:30 Friday morning in a congested area without regard for possible injury.
Police responding to the gunshot report caught Johnson crawling out a third floor window. Police said witnesses reported Johnson and his roommate were fighting when Johnson discharged a shotgun.
After obtaining a search warrant, police recovered a shotgun shell from the floor inside the apartment, along with a box of loaded shells, but did not recover a shotgun.
Bail was set at $75,000 cash/surety, but there is a 72-hour probation/parole hold on Johnson. Because no plea can be entered to a felony in Circuit Court, a probable cause hearing was set for April 2.
Prior forgery conviction
Reginald Cadichon, 28, of 743 Douglas St., objected Monday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division to a proposed $10,000 cash/surety bail on three forgery charges, two of them felonies and one a misdemeanor.
Cadichon is accused of using six counterfeit $20 bills at one location and two counterfeit $20 bills at another location Feb. 12.
Cadichon told Judge William Lyons: "I'm employed full time. I have a 2-year-old daughter."
Lyons said Cadichon has a prior forgery conviction, so personal recognizance bail is not appropriate, but he set bail at $6,000 cash/surety, with conditions that bar Cadichon from either location where the bills were passed.
A probable cause hearing on the felonies was set for April 2 and trial for the misdemeanor was set for April 23.
'A misunderstanding'
A Merrimack man, charged with felony second degree assault and misdemeanor simple assault, insisted Monday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division that it was "a misunderstanding."
Kyle Pozzetta, 27, of 87 Bean Road, said: "I've never hurt my girlfriend. I never did."
Pozzetta was arraigned on a felony charge of second degree assault that alleges he put arms around his girlfriend's neck in a choke hold Saturday and struck her on the side of the face.
A police prosecutor requested $15,000 cash/surety bail, but Judge William Lyons set bail at a total of $11,000 cash/surety, with conditions barring contact with the alleged victim and barring him from an Orange Street address.
New stalking charges
A city man who has 11 stalking and two witness tampering charges pending in Hillsborough County Superior Court was arraigned Monday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division on three new felony stalking charges and a misdemeanor of possession of a controlled drug.
Juan Rivera Ortis, 29, of 421 Manchester St., could enter no plea to the felony charges which allege he called the woman's cell phone and left a message March 4, called and spoke with her March 9 and was with her March 15 at a South Willow Street location.
He's accused of having marijuana in his possession when arrested.
Police prosecutors sought $50,000 cash/surety bail for Rivera Ortis, whose stalking charges are felonies because he was convicted of stalking in Nashua District Court in February 2011.
His criminal history includes assaults and criminal threatening of the same woman, who at Rivera Ortiz' arraignment Jan. 31 on another stalking charge told a judge: "I cannot stay away from the man." Robin Boutin said: "I love him that much. I have a 6-month-old son with him. I'm in recovery with him."
Bail was set at $50,000 cash/surety, with conditions barring contact with the alleged victim and barring Rivera Ortiz from the alleged victim's address.
A probable cause hearing on the felonies was set for April 2 and trial on the misdemeanor was set for April 23.
Says he can't leave
The alleged victim of a city woman charged with second degree assault and resisting arrest Monday said he will be homeless if he moves out of the shared residence at 118 Pearl St., but Tammy Jean Tucker can move in with her mother.
Tucker, 40, told Circuit Court-Manchester District Division Judge William Lyons: "I want to go home."
Tucker is accused of throwing a glass at the man, hitting him in the head and causing a cut on the back of his head. Tucker, who relies on a cochlear implant to hear, told the judge: "I'm not guilty."
Tucker was also charged with resisting arrest for struggling with officers trying to handcuff her.
Tucker, who has a court-appointed guardian, initially declined to apply for a lawyer, saying: "I don't have a job right now." But because that meant she was eligible for a court-appointed lawyer, she agreed to apply.
A probable cause hearing on the felony was set for April 3 and trial on the misdemeanor was set for April 25. Bail was set at $1,000 cash/surety with conditions barring contact with the alleged victim and barring Tucker from the Pearl Street residence.
Neighbor called police
Police who responded Friday afternoon to a report of a burglary in progress at a Union Street address spotted a man running from the area who matched the description provided by a neighbor of a man walking around the building and being up on the front porch.
Frank Ryan, 28, whose stated Goffstown address is a mix of two street names, was charged with criminal mischief, for allegedly breaking a window pane in a door; loitering/ prowling, for checking doors at the Union Street address; possession of a controlled drug, for allegedly having 31 grams of marijuana in his possession, and possession of a prescription drug, for allegedly having three Xanax pills.
Ryan pleaded innocent Monday in Circuit Court-Manchester District Division to the mischief, controlled drug and loitering charges and trial was set for April 23. He could enter no plea to the felony drug charge, so a probable cause hearing was set for April 23. Bail was set at $10,000 cash/surety, with conditions that bar contact with a specific person and bar Ryan from the Union Street address.
Parking officer struck
A parking control officer reported being struck by a vehicle Friday as she attempted to issue a parking ticket for a vehicle parked in violation of a one-hour only zone on Beech Street.
The parking control officer had started to issue the ticket to a Ford Econoline van parked in front of a Beech Street address when a woman came out of the building, telling the parking officer she would move the van and correct the violation.
The parking officer said she was still going to issue the ticket and positioned herself behind the van to complete the process.
The parking officer said the woman then got into the van and proceeded to back up about two feet, striking the parking officer in the leg and prompting her to yell at the driver to stop.
The driver stopped, got out of the van and went back into the building, not checking on the parking officer's condition.
A police officer responding to the call located the driver inside the Beech Street address, identifying her as Brittney Flagg, 26, of 190 Grove St.
Flagg was charged with felony reckless conduct and conduct after an accident. She was also charged with operating after suspension.

The Wire Vernice Cannondale Ltd Edition Cycling Shoes from Sidi delivers ultimate performance without compromising comfort, and is versatile for both road and MTB cleats. Techno 3-system, an adjustable heel retention device and a soft instep fastening device will keep feet fully supported and snug, perfect for riders who want efficient power transfer with the optimum fit. - R.K.
Fastening system adapts the upper shoe to the shape of the foot, with Sidi's Adjustable Heel Retention Device ensuring a snug fit all round. The tight fit gives incredibly efficient power transfer, with comfort maintained by the Vent Carbon Sole. No compromise.
The reinforced heel keeps the foot in a optimal position and avoids the shoe being deformed by extreme performance or prolonged pressure.
Replaceable Heel Pad - For walkability, Sidi cycling shoes include a replaceable polyurethane heel pad.
Vent Carbon Sole - For 2013 SIDI engineers have shaved additional weight off the Vent Carbon Sole, which now features an ultra-light heelpad and a replaceable integrated toe pad/vent cover. The key benefits of the Vent Carbon Sole are not only superior power transfer, because of its lightweight and stiffness, but also warm weather comfort. The Vent Carbon Sole is designed with an integrated vent and air channels for heat dissipation and air flow.
The vent leads to two longitudinal airflow channels molded into the carbon sole that direct air to perforations under the forefoot area (SIDI's Comfort-Fit insoles have matching perforations for unimpeded airflow). The vent can be opened or closed for 4-season comfort. The Vent Carbon Sole is handmade exclusively of carbon fiber in a weave pattern oriented at opposing angles that maximize stiffness while allowing for a small degree of controlled flex in the toe area.
This carefully designed flex biomechanically relieves stress on the plantar tendon and helps promote circulation. The Vent Carbon Sole features a standard 3-hole drilling pattern, printed 10 mm lateral and fore/aft cleat alignment scale as well as the Look Memory Eyelet for easy cleat alignment and replacement. To improve walkability, the Vent Carbon Sole is designed with replaceable polyurethane heel and toe pads. For triathlon, the vent also serves as a water drain, dramatically improving foot comfort after a wet transition.

Alternative Loans are private, creditworthy loans that help bridge the gap between the cost of attendance and other financial aid that is awarded. A co-signer is generally required, and the interest rate is usually a variable rate, typically based on Prime or LIBOR plus a certain percentage. With most lenders, the maximum annual amount is equal to the cost of attendance minus any other financial aid awarded. Students are encouraged to apply for federal, state, and institutional aid before applying for an Alternative Loan.
While some lenders will allow you to defer repayment until 6 months after graduation, interest is charged while in school. Eligibility criteria, loan limits, loan fees, deferment options, and repayment differ among the various lenders. Check with your individual lender for all loan terms and conditions.
If an Alternative Loan is listed on your award letter in an offered status, it is only a recommended amount, and you must apply each school year and receive a credit approval to be eligible for the loan. Also, if there is a specific Alternative Loan lender listed on your award letter, it is the lender that you used in the past. However, you are free to use any lender you wish.
To apply for an Alternative Loan, go to our Alternative Loan Preferred Lender List. If you are approved through one of our preferred lenders, we will certify the amount of loan that you are eligible for and transmit this information back to the lender for a final guarantee. Please understand that you have the right and ability to select the lender of your choice, are not required to use any of the lenders on our preferred lender list, and will suffer no penalty for choosing a lender that is not on our list.
The instructors were knowledgeable and welcomed class discussions, with
respect for each student's contribution. I've learned how to be a more
effective leader. My capstone class gave insight on how to combine all
the education learned to operate a business. That's when I realized how
much I had sharpened my knowledge.

Wait, wait, wait. Doesn't Lineage II have like 100 million players or something? Doesn't Habbo Hotel have like 26 million? WoW is a big fish, yes, but in a small pond - Western MMOs with subscription fees - and the 12 million number there is not actually subscriptions, but includes the Chinese players who pay by the hour. Blizzard has maybe half that number of actual subscriptions.

NEW LONDON — Our favorite sculpture on the campus of Connecticut College is "The Dangers and Pleasures of Co-Education" by William McCloy. Set in Castle Court near the college's fine arts center, it depicts two semi-abstract figures in black metal silhouette engaged at close quarters, possibly in hand-to-hand combat, possibly in a more intimate activity. McCloy was chairman of the art department when the college went co-ed in 1969, and created this bronze six years later just as the tsunami of the sexual revolution was breaking over campuses all across the country.
Celebration or cautionary tale? It's hard to tell, but even 45 years later, "Dangers and Pleasures" retains the power to prompt debate and discussion — which might be the main reason to have large outdoor sculpture all over a college campus.

Shafik Shoaib doesn't see it as some sort of prank. He's been the victim of violence before, and he believes this is how it starts."I wish I could move from here," he said.Shoaib is terrified. He woke up Monday to find his van vandalized. The attack happened early Monday morning. Some of the drawings are so vulgar they can't be shown on television."Someone [does] this and what's [the] next step."Shoaib is well aware how bad this could get. In 2006, he was brutally beaten outside his Detroit home by a group of men, who he says were yelling racial slurs. The alleged ring leader has since been charged with a crime and left the neighborhood."I got stitches in my head. I got my knees almost broken. I had to use crutches for about two months."Now six years later Shoaib fears it could happen again. He believes the vandalism is the work of another neighbor, but since there is no proof, we won't identify them."Three of them [were] yelling ... calling us names. Calling me a [expletive].""I feel bad for him because he's a pretty good guy. He doesn't bother [anyone]," remarked Archie Skursha, who lives across the street.He said his daughter saw a little girl playing with white spray paint the day the van was tagged.Shoaib reported it to police, and he's hoping whoever is behind it stops. Meanwhile, he says he will be documenting everything that happens from this point on and, if necessary, getting a personal protection order.

As ordered reported by the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
on August 1, 2013
S. 1386 would authorize appropriations for the Department of State's embassy security programs. CBO estimates that implementing the bill would have discretionary costs of about $1.8 billion over the 2014-2018 period, assuming appropriation of the specified and estimated amounts.
In addition, CBO estimates that enacting the bill would increase direct spending by $15 million over the 2014-2023 period, and thus, pay-as-you-go procedures apply. Enacting the bill would not affect revenues.
S. 1386 contains no intergovernmental or private-sector mandates as defined in the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act (UMRA).

Song of the Departed: Selected Poems of Georg Traklby Georg Trakl
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
"Trakl's poetry is amazing. His reader is gifted with visions of a darker world, an autumnal place of surreal beauty and a dying splendor. It is not a world friendly to people—it is full of death, desolation, and decay, strange creatures and arcane gods. But it is beautiful nonetheless. Hauntingly beautiful."—Chris Faatz, Powells.com
"I do not understand them; but their tone pleases me. It is the tone of true genius."—Ludwig Wittgenstein
Song of the Departed brings back into print poems written at the height of Georg Trakl's career. Trakl boldly confronted the conflicts created by the pursuit of truth amidst the fallenness of the human condition, writing of the unspeakable that lies beyond language, creating poetry that is intensely personal and eerily beautiful. Included in this revised edition are several new translations and an introduction by the translator.
All roads disgorge to black decay.
Beneath the golden boughs of night and stars
The sister's shadow flutters through the silent grove
To greet the spirits of the heroes, bleeding heads.
And softly in the reeds drone the dark flutes of autumn.
O prouder grief! you brazen altars;
Tonight a mighty anguish feeds the hot flame of spirit:
Unborn grandchildren.
Georg Trakl was born in Austria in 1887. He served as a medical officer during World War I. As a lyric poet, he set a dark, introspective tone that deeply influenced the course of German expressionism. He died in 1914 after an overdose of cocaine.
Now back in print, the poems of Georg Trakl have been championed by Rilke, Bly, Wright, and Wittgenstein.

Bashar al-Assad: 'I'm not a Western puppet, I live and die in Syria' [Sophie Shevardnadze Exclusive © RT]
- Knewtube
- uploaded: Nov 9, 2012
- Hits: 56
In an exclusive interview with RT, Syrian President Bashar Assad said that Syria is not going through a civil war, but rather a different kind of war -- terrorism through proxies

He missed out the crucial word, the one word that would explain the so-called 'uprising' in Syria;
They are busy engineering all of the so-called 'Arab Spring' trouble in the region for their own selfish and rather pathological reasons.
With a divided and dominated Middle East, Israel can and will spread Zionism to all countries in the region.
Israel is behind all of this, with a view to expelling Russian warships from it's Syrian naval base, so it's deluded allies in the US can more easily bomb the hell out of yet another Middle East nation and potentially kill millions more innocent people.
It's such a sicko world. Most people in the West have absolutely NO idea of just how much of a terrorist, rogue state Israel actually is and the depths they sink to in order to oppress Arabs.
It's NOT about Jews and Judaism...most Jews are against what Israel does too, it's about Zionism.

7 U.S. Code § 2622 - Investigations
(a) Administration of oath; subpena; contempts; process; jurisdiction
The Secretary may make such investigations as he deems necessary for the effective carrying out of his responsibilities under this chapter or to determine whether any person has engaged or is engaging in any acts or practices which constitute a violation of any provision of this chapter, or of any plan, or rule or regulation issued under this chapter. For the purpose of any such investigation, the Secretary is empowered to administer oaths and affirmations, subpena witnesses, compel their attendance, take evidence, and require the production of any books, papers, and documents which are relevant to the inquiry. Such attendance of witnesses and the production of any such records may be required from any place in the United States. In case of contumacy by, or refusal to obey a subpena issued to, any person, including a handler, the Secretary may invoke the aid of any court of the United States within the jurisdiction of which such investigation or proceeding is carried on, or where such person resides or carries on business, in requiring the attendance and testimony of witnesses and the production of books, papers, and documents; and such court may issue an order requiring such person to appear before the Secretary, there to produce records, if so ordered, or to give testimony touching the matter under investigation. Any failure to obey such order of the court may be punished by such court as contempt thereof. All process in any such case may be served in the judicial district whereof such person is an inhabitant or wherever he may be found. The site of any hearings held under this section shall be within the judicial district where such person is an inhabitant or has his principal place of business.
(b) Self-incrimination; privilege
No person shall be excused from attending and testifying or from producing books, papers, and documents before the Secretary, or in obedience to the subpena of the Secretary, or in any cause or proceeding, criminal or otherwise, based upon, or growing out of any alleged violation of this chapter, or of any plan, or rule or regulation issued thereunder on the ground or for the reason that the testimony or evidence, documentary or otherwise, required of him may tend to incriminate him or subject him to a penalty or forfeiture; but no individual shall be prosecuted or subjected to any penalty or forfeiture for or on account of any transaction, matter, or thing concerning which he is compelled, after having claimed his privilege against self-incrimination, to testify or produce evidence, documentary or otherwise, except that any individual so testifying shall not be exempt from prosecution and punishment for perjury committed in so testifying.

For all the latest opportunities, you can "like" CU Serve on Facebook. Just click here.
Cameron University believes Community Service is integral to a productive campus. As such, we promote local volunteer activities for students, faculty, and staff.
Cameron also partners with local agencies to provide opportunities for both campus groups and individual students to serve.

- The single-most event that Cameron University Students volunteered with was the Spirit of Survival, which benefited from 778 service hours
- In Oklahoma, one hour of volunteer work is valued at $17.49. This means that the dollar value of Cameron University's student volunteering was $29,872.92!
Top 10 Reasons to Volunteer:
#10: It's good for you! Volunteering provides physical and mental rewards. It:
- Reduces Stress - Experts report that when you focus on someone other than yourself, it interrupts usual tension-producing patterns.

- Support families (daycare and eldercare)

- Beautify the community (beach and park cleanups)
#4: You learn a lot. Volunteers learn things like these:
- Self: Volunteers discover hidden talents that may change your view on your self worth.
- Government: Through working with local non-profit agencies, volunteers learn about the functions and operation of our government.
- Community: Volunteers gain knowledge of local resources available to solve community needs.

#1: You make a difference. Every person counts!

YOUNGS-unsure of origin
The last or oldest YOUNG known is/was Michael b. 1755 in NC, I was told.
His brother Godfrey was born NC. We found a brother John, and a sister Christina [called Jenny]
They lived either in Pulaski Co., Ky or in a county near.
I was told that they were German origin. I can find no evidence of this or anywhere for that
matter. Anyone recognize this family? There is another Michael YOUNG who should not be
confused with this one. Michael married Margaret ALDRIDGE.
on 2013-01-01 13:09:56
Mollib , from Indiana, has been a Family Tree Circles member since Dec 2012.
We have Youngs in our family came from UK to sydney can't find many - anyone know any others my great grandmother was Martha YOUNGS.
Have you looked at census records? If you work your way back, and look at birth,
marriage, and death records you can connect these family members, and you will
learn where your relatives came from.
When someone is born in 1755 I don't know how to find a census. I know a Michael Young was in the1790 census, but no help.
I need to come upon a brother. I think I will investigate a couple of known sons. Thanks.

Want to show your bike-crazy birthday boy or girl a "wheelie" good time? Invite a bunch of pals to bring their cycles, then turn your driveway (or perhaps a nearby school blacktop) into party central.
Set up a station where kids can soup up their rides with homemade number plates, noisemakers, and handle-bar decorations. Next, turn them loose on an obstacle course that tests their skills — and lets them be silly too.
Add a spoke-tacular cake, prize ribbons (below), and take-home goody bags that make everyone feel like a champ, and you've got the coolest party on two wheels.
Give each kid a bright ribbon marked with awards such as "Thirstiest Rider" or "Most Cheerful."
For each ribbon, cut a 10-inch length and a 12-inch length of flagging tape. Line up the lengths so the tops overlap, as shown.
Affix a gold notarial-seal sticker (available at office supply stores) at the overlap, then align and affix a second seal-sticker to the back of the first to cover the ribbons. Write the name of the award on the seal with a permanent marker and use a safety pin to attach it to each child's goody bag or shirt.
Any level stretch of driveway or blacktop can become an extreme sports venue with a few easy touches. Customize your course with what you've got in the garage — and be imaginative! We used cones, sidewalk chalk, a sprinkler, and (going off-road) a ride-through arch made from pool noodles, duct tape, and dowels stuck into the ground at the edge of the driveway. We also had the kids dismount their bikes to crawl through a cardboard-box tunnel and a tent, whack a tee ball, and shoot a basket.
The most important part of the race: the wave of the checkered flag at the end (print our paper version or pick one up at a party store), followed by a rousing cheer from the crowd.

Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart were spotted stepping out together following a night with music royalty.
After whirlwind tours promoting "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2," with Robert in Australia and Kristen in Tokyo, the pair was spotted leaving Prince's show at the Sayers Club in Hollywood on Thursday night.
The duo was photographed leaving the club and attempting to shield themselves from photographers.
While down under, Robert, 26, dished on his "ridiculous" sex scenes with his 22-year-old co-star – more on their steamy vampire sex, HERE!
In related Robert and Kristen news, the couple is reportedly still working on their relationship following Kristen's cheating scandal with her "Snow White and the Huntsman" director, Rupert Sanders.
"There's still healing to do and trust issues," a source told People. "But, Kristen will do whatever it takes."
Another source told the mag that Robert "never stopped loving her."
"The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2" hits theaters on November 16, 2012.

text: Bad Ass BeetleVW finally sent us a Beetle worth caring about. The 180-hp 2002 Turbo S is the most powerful Beetle yet, a full 30 horses more robust than other turbo Beetles. And it looks faster too (for a Beetle). As have other vehicles powered by VW's (and Audi's) turbocharged 1.8-liter, DOHC, five-valve four such as the GTI and Jetta, the Turbo S' engine gets revised engine electronics, which optimize air intake, ignition timing and fuel mixture. And when combined with a new exhaust system, it jolts output up a full 20 percent. The turbo itself and its intercooler are familiar too, but the six-speed manual trans it feeds is new. The peak 180-hp comes at a relatively modest 5500 rpm and VW claims torque peaks at a thick 173 lb-ft at just 1950 rpm and stays there all the way to 5000 rpm. A torque curve this flat doesn't rate being called a curve. Along with the extra power, the Turbo S gets its own unique set of 17-inch wheels, integrated fog lamps, new turn signals, a front spoiler, a new rear bumper and a split outlet exhaust. The turbo Beetle's black, speed-activated, automatic rear spoiler is retained. Inside, Volkswagen added loads of the usual look-fast stuff, including stainless-steel pedals with (and this is a direct lift from the press release) "fashionable, but functional grip holes." There's also white-on-black instrument illumination, "brushed alloy look" trim and a leather wrap around the steering wheel. There's even "brushed alloy" trim on the Beetle's infamous dashboard bud vase. (Although anything with a bud vase still screams "girlie car.") By the way, this most powerful Beetle ever has 7.5 times the horsepower of the first 1946 Beetle imported into the United States. Audi's Continuously ChangingContinuously variable transmissions (CVT) aren't really new. Holland's DAF company was selling a version of the CVT as far back as the '50s, Subaru sold the Justy with a CVT aboard during the '80s and Honda will still sell you a Civic GX with a CVT if you really want one. But Audi's new Multitronic CVT for the A4 (and eventually other Audis and VWs) is the new world standard for high-tech CVTs. While the term Multitronic may conjure up images of old Star Trek episodes, the essential elements of a CVT are in place with the new Audi transmission - it still works by moving a belt across pulleys which vary in diameter depending on their position. Since the belt remains a constant size, the drive pulley changes in size directly in proportion to the change in the driven pulley and the ratios vary. There are no stepped gears as in a conventional transmission, so CVTs can run exceptionally smoothly. The Audi Multitronic system adds electronic control to the world of CVTs. Instead of a rubber belt, the Multitronic uses "link-plate" drive chain that is tied to "variator" pulleys whose sides expand or contract to vary their size. A computer decides, depending on throttle position, when to hydraulically vary the pulley sizes and produce the various ratios in concert with engine torque production and clutch engagement. The use of a chain instead of belt means torque loads up to 230 lb-ft can be accommodated, which is quite a bit higher than previous CVTs. What's particularly satisfying about the Multitronic CVT is how the electronic controls allow Tiptronic operation of six "virtual" gears in manual mode. Using the Tiptronic shifter, the computer creates steps in the CVT's ratios, which simulate manual gear choices very well. CVTs have been more a novelty than a choice for most enthusiast buyers - mostly because they have been available only in small, low-power vehicles. The Multitronic unit increases torque capacity significantly and may mean CVTs will have a more fruitful future than anyone thought a few years ago. « | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | » | View Full Article Enjoyed this Post?

Patrick Lavoie, photo by Sian Richards.
Patrick Lavoie was born in Montréal, Québec and trained at
L'École supérieure de ballet contemporain de Montréal and San Francisco Ballet
School. He joined The National Ballet of Canada in 1997 and was promoted to
First Soloist in 2003.
Mr. Lavoie's repertoire includes the roles of Romeo and Paris in
Romeo and Juliet, Siegfried and
Rothbart in Swan Lake and Prince
Charming in Cinderella, as well as
principal roles in Onegin, The Firebird, Madame Butterfly, An Italian
Straw Hat, The Seagull, Hamlet
and The Four Seasons. Also included
in his repertoire are The Sleeping Beauty,
Giselle, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland, Jewels, The Four Seasons, Carmen, The Man in Black and
Emergence. Recently, Mr. Lavoie danced the roles of the Faun and Golden
Slave in the Canadian
premiere of Nijinsky by John Neumeier.
In 2010, he danced with the company in 24 Preludes by Chopin at the Cultural Olympiad at the Winter
Olympics in Vancouver.
Mr. Lavoie was awarded the David Tory Award in 2012 and the Patron
Award of Merit by the Patron's Council Committee of The National Ballet of
Canada in 2001.
You will be making your debut as Kostya in The Seagull this season. What excites you about taking on this role?
Kostya is a multi-faceted role. Not only is there a lot of depth to his character but there is so much happening between him and all the different characters onstage. It's also interesting to dance and expand upon a role that has been developed so deeply on page as in Chekhov's play versus creating a character from scratch.
How does John Neumeier transform Chekhov's famous play, The Seagull, into dance?
John stays very true to the characters and story of the play. The greatness of Chekhov and other Russian playwrights is how much is not being said. John is wonderful at conveying through dance the subtle themes and feelings that lie beneath the surface in the story.
You are also dancing in The Sleeping Beauty and La Fille mal gardée. How do the three ballets differ in choreographic style?
The Sleeping Beauty is the most classical of classical ballets whereas La Fille mal gardée is a bit more light and down to earth. The Seagull is the opposite and is dark and extremely theatrical.
You have been with the National Ballet for 15 years and have a diverse repertoire of roles. Name some of your favourite roles and what you liked about them?
One of my all time favourite roles is The Man in The Four Seasons – it is so beautiful and well crafted and it was an honour to dance the role – but every role I've danced, big or small, has been interesting and rewarding in its own way. It all depends on how much you invest into the role.
Tell us what brought you to ballet. How did you decide to make dance your career?
My sister used to dance ballet as a child so it was natural for my parents to take me along to class as well. I fell in love with the physicality of ballet and stayed with it through the years. I chose ballet for my career because of the artistry.
What gives you inspiration as an artist?
Life, the people I meet, my family… inspiration is everywhere. Dance is about the real world, a lot of times, as in The Seagull, where the characters are ones that you can actually relate to.
You recently became a father for the second time. Your daughter Anais was born in October last year. How do you juggle family life and being a dancer?
It's hard to juggle both, it's not easy. There are many sleepless nights but you get used to it and it is extremely rewarding to have your kids watch you dance and appreciate what you do.
I like doing active stuff with my kids, such as ice skating and skiing in the winter and playing on the beach during the summer.
Swan Lake "Patrick Lavoie debuting as Rothbart was a sensation... he found the evil
sorcerer's strength of command without ever losing a stately bearing. His
chemistry with both victimized Odette and accomplice Odile was palpable." The
Globe and Mail, 2010
The Four Temperaments "From the opening steps, danced with rapier-like precision by Bridgett Zehr and
Patrick Lavoie, it is a dance lover's dream" Toronto Sun, 2009
The Man
in Black "Patrick Lavoie brought something real and
emotional to the stage with his vulnerable portrayal of a hurting,
self-destructive man." Dance International, 2012

How Boxer Mikaela Mayer Knocks Out Cravings And Her Sexy Abs Secret!
Written on May 8, 2013 at 12:32 pm , by FITNESS Intern
Written by Carrie Stevens, editorial intern
Care to step into the ring with 22-year-old amateur boxer Mikaela Mayer? Chances are this former model will knock you out—figuratively and literally. In 2012, she secured the title of U.S. National Champion and brought home bronze and gold medals from the World Championships and Continental Games, respectively. The Los Angeles native was an alternate in the London Games (the first year women could compete), and has her sights set on gold in Rio. We talked training and being bikini-body ready for summer (have you seen her abs?), plus her genius secret for keeping that sweet tooth in check.
How did you discover boxing?
I signed up for Muay Thai at a gym near my house, and was practicing to keep myself busy. A few months in, I suffered a slight back injury that prevented me from kicking, so my trainer made me take boxing fights to develop my hands. Once I tried it, fell in love and never went back! I remember telling myself only two or three months in that I was going to be the best female fighter in the world.
Clearly that's working out! How often do you train?
When I'm in camp for a tournament, it's six days a week, two to three times a day for six weeks. It's nothing but eat, sleep, train, repeat! The workouts will vary week to week, but it's a mix of interval running, swimming, strength training, boxing and sparring three to four times a week.
Well, that must keep you bikini-body ready year-round, right?
Even when I don't have major competitions coming up, working out is still a part of my everyday routine. Partly because I enjoy getting stronger and more skillful and partly because getting back in shape after you have let yourself go is too hard! So I always try to maintain. Staying in tip-top shape requires working out consistently. You can't make excuses for skipping the gym. It needs to be a priority.

NBAA 2011: A Tale of Two Static Displays
NBAA has two static displays of aircraft, one at Henderson Executive Airport with 85 aircraft and the other right next to the Las Vegas Convention Center, with 14. At Henderson, all the major aircraft manufacturers are showing their latest and greatest, while several aircraft brokers have a good number of quality preowned aircraft for sale.
NBAA President Ed Bolen told AINtv that the large static area at Henderson "may end up being the strongest static display that NBAA has ever had." The display area covers some 630,000 square feet of area.

Please confirm that your email address is correct, so you can successfully receive this alert.
By Daniel Paul Schreber. New York, New York Review of Books, 2000, 454 pp., $14.95 (paper).
This book, written a century ago by a man confined to an asylum, was selected by Amazon.com as one of the 100 finest nonfiction books of the 20th century. This must be the first time a madman has made a "Great Books" list. Psychiatrists know Schreber through Freud's case study, but scholars of all types have read him. Memoirs of My Mental Illness is surely the most studied text ever written by a psychiatric patient.
Daniel Paul Schreber was born in 1842 to an upper-class family in Leipzig. His father was a physician who was famous in Germany for his work in health and education. After finishing law school, the younger Schreber entered the service of the Saxon Ministry of Justice, where his career steadily advanced. At the age of 42, he ran for a place in the Reichstag but was overwhelmingly defeated. Shortly thereafter, he developed multiple depressive symptoms and admitted himself voluntarily to a psychiatric hospital run by Dr. Paul Flechsig, whom he later regarded as his persecutor. After a 6-month hospital stay and a convalescence, Schreber resumed his duties at court. No one reported psychotic symptoms during his illness.
So far as we know, Schreber remained free of psychiatric disorder for almost 10 years after his first psychiatric hospitalization. Shortly after becoming a presiding judge, he became symptomatic and was readmitted to Flechsig's asylum. Thereafter, Schreber developed a very rich, very complex, and very bizarre delusional system.
He believed he was connected to God through nerves or "rays," which, he thought, made up the human soul. He feared that his soul would be handed over to Flechsig, who would either abuse his body or let it rot. This was "soul murder." Schreber developed an array of messianic ideas, including the belief that he was to be fertilized by God in order to create a new race of beings.
Schreber wrote his manuscript in an attempt to win his freedom. He hoped it would demonstrate that he was sane enough to leave the hospital. In 1902, the court released him. No one thought that he was sane, but the judges believed he was harmless. (Ironically, he was freed by the same court in which he had served as a presiding judge.) Five years later, Schreber was readmitted and remained hospitalized until his death.
Why has this book captured the attention of so many academics? First, it is a vivid and articulate description of psychosis. Schreber's psychosis is manifest throughout, but he writes like a scholar; everyone who reads Schreber notes the peculiar combination of the most unbelievable delusions within a logical and eloquent literary form. When he can free himself from his more personal beliefs, he writes persuasively, as in his essay on why "cases of harmless insanity" should not be involuntarily hospitalized. After a time, reading Memoirs of My Nervous Illness becomes tedious because Schreber frequently repeats or contradicts himself. Few will want to read this book cover to cover, but anyone who picks it up will be fascinated by the author's delusional symptoms.
A second and more important reason for the popularity of this book is that Schreber offers penetrating insights, however bizarrely they are presented. The reader gains a deeper understanding of madness. Indeed, the reader gains a deeper understanding of whatever topic the man addresses. Schreber's influence is evident, for example, in Freud's interpretation of paranoia and Lacan's views of paternal representations. As Professor Zvi Lothane (1) has pointed out, Schreber is a master thinker and interpreter who should be heard on his own terms. Freud (2) recognized this when he concluded at the end of his monograph on Schreber,
It remains for the future to decide whether there is more delusion in my theory than I should like to admit, or whether there is more truth in Schreber's delusion than other people are as yet prepared to believe.
