Residents of Mexico's Baja Peninsula are picking up the pieces after devastating Hurricane Odile smashed ashore at Cabo San Lucas near 12:45 am EDT Monday as a Category 3 storm with 125 mph winds. The San Jose del Cabo airport (7th busiest in Mexico) is closed until September 22, and the Cabo San Lucas airport may be closed until October. Fortunately, no deaths are being attributed to the hurricane--a tribute to the excellence of Mexico's civil defense system for hurricanes.
August featured a record heat wave in the Baltics and Belarus, record cold in Northern Ireland, extreme rainfall events along the U.S. East Coast and in Michigan. Deadly flooding in Nepal and India killed at least 200 and Typhoon Halong hit Japan. A rare tropical storm struck the Big Island of Hawaii. Perth, Australia had its warmest August on record while Darwin measured its coldest August temperature on record.

People ask me these days why I keep blogging. Perhaps that's a hint. They imagine that I spend my days in repeated bickering that includes personal insults. That's not the case at all. My reasons include hearing from staffers in D.C. or a state capital that they look to my blogs for some considered analysis or synthesis on some current climate-change subject. The occasional note that someone in a pay grade far above mine, will be in some meeting, and needs to know how to respond to the whole silly warming pause, warming hiatus thing.
This two-day workshop will provide a forum to review and establish procedures for accessibility challenges during relief and evacuation efforts.
Seasonable weather will continue and finish off the climatological summer.

Chapter Fourteen3 Reviews
I'm just cool lyke dat.
I sat outside my house on the curb. I had two rolling suitcases and a duffel bag and some other things. I had called Meg and Lane and asked if I could come stay with them for a while and if they could come get me and my stuff. Of course they asked me questions, but I was tired and I told them I would explain later. It was a little after 8 in the morning and we were supposed to be in school. But we're seniors. We can afford to miss a little school.
I sat on the curb waiting for them my legs hugged to my chest and my head resting on them. I couldn't cry any more. I had run out of tears. With everything left there were no more to cry. Life went on, cars driving by on the street in front of me, people walking past behind me. I feel them staring, I hear them talking and I know what they're thinking. I don't care. I sit there and wait, ignoring them.
I hear a taxi stop and I hear footsteps come and stand in front of me. I hear my bags moving and I feel someone putting there arms around me and helping me stand up. I look around to see Lane helping the cab driver moving my stuff into the trunk and I see Meg walk me to the car. We get in and the trunk shuts and Lane slides in with us on my other side. They both hold my hands and we drive to their house in silence.
I don't remember most of the trip over to their house. This all seems so surreal. What kind of mother kicks their own child out of the house in the middle of her senior year of high school? And the most strange part is, she said that she would continue to pay for my schooling and cell phone bill (odd woman), but I could not live in her house until further notice.
We got to the Fulton's and moved my stuff into the guest room. I walked over to Meg's room and collapsed on her bed and snuggled into the pillows. I heard them walk in behind me.
"Nicky, we would like to know what's going on." Lane said.
"I don't really want to talk right now." I said into the pillows.
"Rain, we have a right to know." She said playing with my hair.
I sighed. They did have a right to know.
"My mom kicked me out because she said that I was out of control. The drinking, the smoking, the cutting. She said it was too much so she kicked me out." I saw surprisingly calm as I told them about it. They hadn't known about the cutting so I showed them all of the,. The ones Ryan hadn't seen on my legs and I showed them the ones he had seen on my torso and arm. They already knew about the drinking and smoking and sneaking out. Hell, some of it I did with them.
Some where in between all of this I ended up falling asleep.
Meg's POV
After Rain had told us about everything, she drifted off. Lane and I tucked her in and went to Lane's room.
"This is not a good situation." Lane said.
"Hell no its not. I need to talk to Matt." While I pulled out my cell she nodded and turned on her laptop and went online. I texted matt.
ARGH. I forgot he's in school. Oh well, Fuck it.
Emergency Come to my house ASAP. -Meg
I sat with my laptop and waited for Matt to reply. My phone vibrated and I flipped it open.
B there soon- Matt
15 minutes the four of us (Will had joined since he had skipped school anyway) sat in Lanes room drinking Red Bulls. It was only 9 in the morning so it was still early.
"Her mom kicked her out?" Matt asked after Lane and I had explained the situation.
We nodded.
"Fuck." Will mumbled shaking his head. "How's she holding up?"
"I think she still in shock. I mean wouldn't you be if your mom just kicked you out?" Lane said.
"Yeah. I guess." Will agreed.
Matt nodded. "Where is she now?" He asked. I leaned my head on his shoulder and he put his arm around me, pulling me closer.
"She's in Meg's room, sleeping. Apparently she was woken up really early this morning and had only gotten 3 ½ hours of sleep. She had a hard night last night anyways, so she must be exhausted."
"You should be, too." Will commented looking over at Lane and brushing the hair out of her face. "You were up late too."
She nodded and held up the Red Bull and smiled. "Thank you caffeine." We all chuckled together.
We ended up putting in a movie, letting Rain get some sleep. Mmmmm, Boondock Saints. We watched that, then made some lunch. Or rather we ordered lunch since we cant agree on food, Lane and I being vegetarian and Will and Matt being of the male species. Cheeeeeeese pizza.
We munched on that while we popped in movie #2. Lord of the Rings. When we got done around 3, Rain still wasn't up.
"All with the people inside, what a wonderful caricature of intimacy..."
"Ah! Turn it off!!!" Matt boomed.
I whined, Will groaned. Lane smacked Will.
"Oh shut you three. Its Nick's phone." Lane said getting up and picking it up off the table. We had kept it with us just for this purpose. In case anybody called or texted we could respond.
Lane tossed it to me and went back to the couch to cuddle back up with Will.
I glanced at the caller id. Ryan. Oh snap.
"Hello?" I answered.
"Nicky?" He asked confused.
"That's what I thought, you don't sound anything like her."
"Yeah, so what's up?"
"Uh can I speak to her?"
"Why not?" He asked confused.
"Oh. Well she's sleeping."
"This late? On a school day?" Still confused. Obviously she hadn't told him what had happened.
"Yeah well she did stay out super late last night and her mom did kick her out this morning and-"
"What did you just say????!!!" He cut me off.
"Her mom kicked her out this morning."
"Why? What happened? Where is she? Does she have a place to stay?"
"Whoa, so down there tiger. I think it would be best if she answered those for you. She's here, at my house. Come on over." I gave him directions.
"Ok. I'll be there as soon as I can." He said sounding panicked. Haha. He should be at a disco. SO he can Panic at the disco. I smiled at my joke as I hung up the phone.
"Ryan's coming over." I said as I hung up the phone.
"Ew." Matt said.
"He sounded panicked." I said.
"Haha. He should be at a disco so he can panic at the disco." Will drawled out.

Good luck getting that much money paid. These people who run these servers aren't rich, not even with the microtransactions.
I don't see why the kids and grandkids would have to pay. It's not their debt, and last time i checked, they're not liable for a parent's debts. They won't get much of an inheritance though.
I'd also say the 88 million will come down on appeal. Unless Alyson Reeves, is extremely rich, this just seems like a token "infinity billion dollars" amount.
There's only one person who can clarify things now! *shines Lawbringer bat-signal into the night sky*
brendan.euclid said...
If I am reading the case correctly, she made millions. I used to play a crappy little 2D MMO called Odyssey Online, and someone ended up setting up a microtransaction market for it and lived off of it very comfortably.
Pyromelter said...
There is no way blizzard will ever get that much money. They'll probably track down a fair chunk of the 3 million. And to the person who said that your debts do not get handed down, that is correct. Finally, in the United States, there are hundreds and possibly thousands of ways to get out of paying things. Many many many bankruptcy options, not to mention multiple other legal venues to avoid paying.
Plus, we in the United States do not have a "debtors prison." No one goes to jail for not paying debts. In more... seedier transactions, shall we say, you may get a broken arm or something.
The simplest way the goobermint gets money off of people is garnishing wages. Someone who was entrepreneurial enough to leech 3 million in a microtransaction market on a pirated server of significantly less quality than the real mccoy can probably figure out how to make money out of sight of prying eyes.
Bionic Radd said...
It doesnt matter if they get their money. They just gave anyone thinking about doing this 88 million reasons not to.
Generally companies are separate entity from you. Even if the company is foreclosed, everything sold off, and the debt can't be repaid, it doesn't affect you personally (aside from probably getting a really bad credit rating afterwards).
I think the fine is there more to make sure that no one will ever attempt something like this again. No one would expect to get that kind of money out of them.
The assessment of damages and amount to be paid are two different things. For instance, let's say you have an old car and get into a minor accident. You take the car to your insurance company's mechanic for evaluation. They assess the damages at, say, $4000, however, because the car is so old the value of the entire vehicle is judged to be $3000, so the insurance company views the car as 'totaled' and cuts you a check for $3000.
The private server company did ~$88 million worth of damages to Blizzard. That's like saying a bomb went off and caused $88 million in damage, it's just a way to assess the value of the damage done. That value is essentially the maximum that Blizzard would legally be allowed to squeeze out of those responsible. The damages paid will likely be far less, however I don't doubt that those responsible will be paying for most, if not all, of the rest of their lives.
"Plus, we in the United States do not have a "debtors prison." No one goes to jail for not paying debts. "
This is wholly untrue. For example, skip out on paying your child support and you'll go to jail.
Granted, the jail is technically for contempt of court - but the contempt arises out of not paying a debt owed.
There are some very stringent restrictions on where, how and when debts like this can be collected. Providing the private server company was a corporation, they also have some pretty hefty safeguards put into place regarding what can be collected.
IF the company is a corporation (or in some states a LLC), then the assets can be collected only from the corporation. Granted, the entire corporation can be dismantled and auctioned off - and many people don't realize that any assets that corporation claims on its tax returns can also be auctioned off, but personal property and monies of the owners of the corporation are, in most cases, protected.
If it is not a corporation, then any and all private assets of the individual can be auctioned off. Some of this can be alleviated with a bankruptcy - a certain monetary value in regards to personal property, real estate (primary residence only up to a certain monetary value), vehicle, etc. would usually be untouchable. Anything above and beyond this would be auctioned or sold, and the money would be distributed amongst the claimants of the bankruptcy depending on a strict schedule - usually secured creditors first (house, car, etc.), trickling all the way down to unsecured creditors, which Blizzard would be defined as. After the bankruptcy was complete (I'm assuming a chapter 7 here, btw, since it would be absurd in the extreme for them to try for a chapter 13), all remaining debt that was claimed in the bankruptcy would be discharged.
Even IF (big if) the private server person(s) chose not to follow any of these paths, the debt would be discharged upon his/her death - after any and all proceeds from his/her estate were auctioned and proceeds distributed to the creditors. No remaining liability would fall on the heirs of the estate - our laws are pretty clear on this, the heirs might not receive a single penny from the estate, but they would not be liable for any additional claims from creditors on the estate.

So after I posted my last (or rather, latest), Channel Flip, two people got in touch to very kindly ask about the movies they were still waiting, with saintly patience, for me to recap. One was Streets of Fire, a Rock'n'Roll Fable that answered pretty much all my life questions except one you ask of everyone in this, "What are you DOING here?", even as you pretty much enjoy yourself.

It's my final Channel Flip (I think – if your request hasn't been filled, drop me a comment stat)!
Most people asked for Channel Flips for movies and television they either themselves enjoy, or hope I'll hate as much as they might secretly hate it. It's been a blast, mostly! In this last Channel Flip, I learn to be more specific in terms of what I'll watch, if I ever offer again after this puppy, because someone will eventually request a movie that person made themselves in what looks like… Read more »
Penultimate Channel Flip! This one I was actively looking forward to, except the first disc broke and I had to send away for another, which seemed like a bad omen, which is sort of fitting for everything that has ever happened on Rome, ever, because all of it is just a beautifully-shot and -acted cascade of terrible things. Not that I know that from watching the series! It's just a guess I have, having never ever watched the series, because of course not, ha ha, DON'T LOOK AT ME.

In high school, someone tried to introduce me to Red Dwarf.

Yeah, someone got me on WWII trivia. Ouch, I hate making THAT kind of mistake, but well done, Kratz, for gigging me when I had it coming. But, guys, please, on time-references of the hit on the Pope, have you not yet learned that I ALWAYS farble time references I my books? The Ryan Universe is in quantum time. You never know exactly what the time period really is. (The Heizenberg Principle, you see.) The time references are always contradictory. The guys who tried to construct set time points for the books are even more crazy than I am. I mean, I respect and express my gratitude for taking my work so seriously, but, really, if I don't (on the time issue, that is) why should you? Alas, I cannot really comment on the criticism of my work (you ungrateful bastards!), but be assured that I read all of it. I even save the good criticisms to a file on my Mac, in the hope that I might learn from it. The good criticism, that is, not the stuff written in used house trailers next to the town dumps. TC

Hills. Wind. Hills. Wind.
NOLA W9/KW3 20.01 Miles; 3:20:35 (9:59 pace)
This was the hardest run I've ever, ever done. The wind was in my face the entire time. The hills were, well, hills. You guys coming to Nashville in April are in for a treat! I felt like I was running backwards and uphill for 3 hours. Next time the news says, "Wind gusts of up to 40mph" I'll do more than shrug it off.
Other than the elements out of my control, it was great. The weather was perfect-started out at 30 degrees and rose to 50, sunny and gorgeous. I had no pain AT ALL! I think taking a week off really helped work out some kinks and I felt great after I got warmed up.
Brenna and I got to run together virtually, and proceeded to send videos via text to each other. It was like mental candy. She totally killed her long run!
A cutback week in on tap for next weekend with 12 miles, and I get to run a 5k! It's been over a year since I've done a smaller race, so I'm pretty excited for that.

i ate some cherry garcia and it reminded me of the days when i was listening to the trippy music of the grateful dead
by Eric Arthur Blair December 08, 2004
An amazing play in ultimate frisbee, synonymous with the term "the greatest". Term derived from the deliciousness of the ice cream flavor, a "cherry garcia" is an alternate name for the action of leaping in the air to save a disc going out of bounds and passing it (in the air) to a teammate.
Davis pulled a cherry garcia in the endzone last point.

When a girl is straddling a guy's face before he eats her out, but instead she shits on his face. Then, as he sits up to yell at her, she punches him in the nose. The mixture of blood and fecal matter resembles the Ben & Jerry's ice cream Cherry Garcia

Volunteering As A GirlThank you girls for making me so pretty and beautiful
I was able to volunteer to serve tea and cookies during tea time
at the seniors nursing home.
The seniors were very sweet and kind, commenting I was a real
darling and a good girl for helping out.
I found the experience quite enjoyable, because the seniors
seemed to enjoy me as much as the tea and cookies.
It feels good to make others happy.
sweetandtendermarie 18-21, M 3 Responses 4 Jun 22, 2012
Melodie said it all.
Good for you.I worked at a nursing years ago,and the residents loved to have somebody to talk with.
If you are satisfied with what you accomplished then you have been rewarded twice, meeting more friends and finding out more about yourself. Being a good girl is not as bad as you thought it would be. You found you like showing this side of your personality and I hope you never lose this part of yourself.

Yep, pretty much.
For myself it's kind of an irony: I had to quit WoW a few weeks ago (forum lurking is part of my 'weening' phase') because I just couldn't commit the time necessary to keep raiding (my guild was working towards Algalon, with all but 2 of the 25 man Hard Modes on 'farm'), but I always bitched about having nothing to do except raiding.
My daily routine was:
- log in
- check mail
- pickup cooking daily
- pickup JC daily
- head to IC to get AT dailys
- Solo the 3-man Quest, kill a bunch of scourge, lolJoust, collect Champion seals
- hunt down the target of JC daily
- collect Mushrooms for Meatloaf (for the 100th time in a row)
- check H. Daily, and accept anything that wasn't Occulus or OK. Engage Dual Specs, switch to Tank and enter LFG.
- logout
Now that might seem like 'a lot', and I guess in a way it is, but it was mind numbingly boring, and it was all grinding.
- daily gold = repair bills + consumables
- AT dailys for Champion Seals = future rewards
- Daily Heroics = Emblems of Justice = Epic Gems in 3.2 (I had over 500 emblems when I quit lol)
None of it was 'fun' tbh. The fun would start when I got to the raid.
Now I look ahead at 3.2, and I feel like puking, as the raid content looks so terribad. It makes quiting easier tbch, as I feel like I'm getting out at the right time.
I dunno about anyone else, but WoW is definitely not heading in the right direction, at least imo.

Rhode Island's seat belt laws require that the driver and all passengers in the car over the age of 13 be buckled up. This is a secondary enforcement offense, meaning that the officer must have had probable cause to pull you over for a separate driving offense before he may issue you a ticket for unbelted driving. The fine for non-compliance is $57.
Children between the ages of 7 and 12 must be belted in. This is a primary enforcement offense, meaning that officers who have probable cause to believe the unbelted occupant is under the age of 12 may pull over the vehicle and issue a ticket. The National Highway Transportation Safety Administration recommends that children between the ages of 7 and 12 actually be belted in the back seat, because the front seat poses a risk of death from air bag explosion for children under a certain height and weight.
Children under the age of 7 must be restrained in the back seat. This is also a primary offense. Children under 54" and 80 lbs. must be restrained by a car seat. Those over 54" and 80 lbs. may be in a seat belt or child safety seat.
There are nearly 100,000 car accidents in Rhode Island each year. Still, 2002 was the first time that Rhode Island's seat belt usage has exceeded 70%. The national average is 75%. The demographic who most infrequently wears seat belts is young men (13-24), who only wear seat belts about 50% of the time.
A 2004 study from the Rhode Island Department of Health found that injuries and death are always more likely in accidents involving unbelted drivers and passengers.
Death was 2.8 times more likely to occur when the occupant was not wearing a safety belt.
The risk of death for 13-24 year olds is 4.5 times as great in unbelted occupants than it is in those who wear safety belts.
Severe Injury was 1.9 times more likely to occur.
Additionally, care outcomes are more costly and more time consuming in cases where the occupant chose not to wear a safety belt:
Hospital Admissions were 2.1 times more likely.
Hospital Charges were 1.6 times greater.
Hospital Stays were 1.5 times as long.

Chapel Hill, NC (June 3, 2010) - Divi Resorts announced today a special opportunity for guests at the Divi Flamingo Beach Resort in Bonaire to experience coral spawning, one of the most spectacular biological phenomena on Earth. A rarely seen but never forgotten event for most divers, coral spawning occurs only two to three times a year.
"It may require some patience to watch coral spawning, but you will definitely not be disappointed when it happens," stated Serge De Groote, dive operations manager of the Divi Flamingo Beach Resort.
The best "spawning dives" take place four to eight nights after a full moon. Divi Flamingo Beach Resort has thus organized travel and dive packages around the prime periods for viewing the coral's reproduction: September 25/26 - October 02/03 and October 23/24 - October 30/31. Says Groote, "Of course, we can't control nature, but divers in the waters off the Divi Flamingo Bay can expect to witness coral reproduction of the Boulder Star, Brain, Great Star, Sea Rod and Branching corals." Other underwater creatures also spawn during this period, such as brittle stars, cucumbers, sea-urchins, sponges (e.g. Touch-Me-Nots), fireworms and feather duster worms, adding to the underwater show.
The package includes extensive dives during visitors' stays, along with lectures by Denise and Ruud Janssen, expert divers and experienced tour guides for coral spawning. The husband and wife team are with Divi Dive Bonaire, the Flamingo Beach Resort's onsite five-star dive facility. "The Janssens provide great knowledge and expertise to this travel experience; the entire experience is one to not be missed," De Groote said. "To witness something so rare in a place as beautiful as Bonaire and just a few yards off shore from the resort is truly a memorable event."
The package, which is from $965 per person, includes the following amenities and activities:
• Seven nights accommodation at Divi Flamingo
• Daily breakfast buffets
• Daily two-tank boat dives
• Unlimited shore diving
• One free night boat dive during spawning
• One night dive on Calabas reef with certified instructors
• Pre-dive lectures by the Janssens
For more information about coral spawning, or to reserve your package please visit www.diviflamingo.com, or call 1-800-801-5550.

Hollywood careers rarely come with more vertiginous ups and downs than Robert Evans' - which means there's plenty of material for this engaging rattle through his autobiography. Told by the man himself, the stories (including his marital problems and drug addiction) make for great material. But while his involvement offers welcome access, it also means we only get to hear one side of his chequered story.

CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) — Homeless shelters in West Virginia could see an increase in residents as bitter cold is predicted across the state.
The National Weather Service has issued wind chill warnings for most of West Virginia, beginning Monday evening. Some areas could see wind chills of minus 30 degrees or lower.
Major John Blevins with the Salvation Army in Wheeling says the organization opened a warming shelter last week when temperatures dropped. It's a place for people to warm up during the day.
Blevins says 28 people are staying at regular shelter for men, women and families. A larger shelter can be set up at a separate church facility if needed.
Chaplain C. Burns with the Union Mission in Charleston says the organization's men's shelter can house up to 150 if needed.

One way not to run a decent newspaper is to run after rotten readership in sackcloth, ashes and a Berlin paywall. All of these, I wish The Post.
I view the carried interest tax provision as the canary in the coal mine (or from Wall Street's perspective, the gold mine).
When basic fee-based for these hedge funds and partnerships is taxed as ordinary income, like everybody else's fee-based income, then there is a good chance that the "bought and paid for" Congress will actually be looking out for its constituents' best interests.

7 Dos and Don'ts for Pregnant Commuters
Posture and Position
DON'T: Lock your legs or stay in the same position for your entire commute.
DO: Try simple stretches or any sort of movement to keep your blood flowing.
"I can't tell you how many patients have told me how they've fainted on the bus or subway," comments 20-year veteran Bellinson, whose practice draws many pregnant women from the Manhattan area. Pregnant women who stand in the same position for a long time are susceptible to dizziness and fainting because blood pools in the lower part of their bodies, depriving the brain of oxygen and putting pregnant women at risk of blacking out. Dr. Ashton equates the blood flow to the sand in an hourglass. The longer you stand, the more likely it is that blood will pool in the lower part of your body, just as sand drains to the bottom of the hourglass. While your baby is not at risk from lack of blood flow or oxygen, you are at risk of serious falls.
To alleviate blood-flow problems, make sure to move around as much as possible. If you're stuck in traffic, try wiggling your toes, moving your feet, or stretching your calf muscles to get your blood circulating. Bellinson also recommends maternity support stockings to help maintain adequate blood flow.
DON'T: Wait to be offered a seat on the subway or bus.
DO: Ask for someone to give up a seat if none are available.
"You can't always count on a polite person to give up a seat," says Dr. Ashton, "but you shouldn't hesitate to ask for one." Sitting will make your commute much more comfortable, and you'll be less likely to fall or black out.
DON'T: Drive without a safety net.
DO: Drive safely.
If you're exhausted or drowsy at the end of the day, consider taking a break at work before heading home, carpooling with coworkers, or using public transportation. Bellinson says pregnant women can "safely drink a cup of tea or coffee with caffeine in the morning if they are concerned about fatigue."
Beyond your own driving habits, you should also be vigilant with general safety strategies such as always taking your cell phone with you and letting someone know what route you'll be taking, in case of an emergency. (You may also want to stash pepper spray in your purse, as pregnant women can be targets for robberies.)
Commuting while pregnant can be uncomfortable, but by following a few simple suggestions, your commute can be a lot smoother and safer.

LAWTON, Okla._Local shoppers braved Saturday's heat to take advantage of some big savings.
Oklahoma's 7th Annual Sales Tax Free Weekend kicked off just after midnight Thursday. For this weekend only, Oklahoma retailers removed the sales tax from clothing and footwear products under $100.
Oklahoma state law allows anyone to take advantage of the savings, but it was primarily designed to help parents and students with their back to school clothing costs.
"Lots of back to school clothes and backpacks and stuff."
It's that time of year when families begin preparing for their kids to head back to school. That means a need for new clothes, shoes, and school supplies. These costs can add up quickly, but when shoppers hit their favorite stores Saturday they found some relief.
"I have spent $750, and I have only paid a little over $10 in sales-tax."
"We have probably saved about $120, but we have bought a bunch of stuff now too."
"In every store I am usually saving another $25 or $27, so its worth it."
On Saturday, people were at it all day to make sure that they got all they needed before the state's sales tax returns.
"We have been at it for 6 hours, and we are still not done yet."
And it wasn't just the lack of sales tax that was saving people money. Shoppers said there were deals and extra discounts everywhere.
"Very inexpensive. They are deals all over the place. Everywhere is packed."
But the long lines and full parking lots were worth it because of all the money local shoppers were able to save.
"It works out pretty good though. It is nice to be able to save a little money when you can."
Oklahoma's Tax Free Weekend continues through Sunday, August 4.

With the change of scale rules allowing gyros in aircraft at Top Gun, the need for an aircraft gyro in the JR® heli lineup became apparent. Being good at meeting the market's needs, the JR brand started immediately developing an easy-to-use aircraft gyro.

Its small size and easy programming make it an ideal gyro for your latest warbird or jet model.
The JR G370A high-frequency aircraft rate gyro is designed to provide gyro stability to any one of your model's primary flight controls – rudder, ailerons or elevator. It features MEMS sensor, remote gain adjustment and easy installation and setup.

David Just, the Colorado State AARP President, presented the Black Forest AARP Chapter # 1100 the trophy for being the best AARP Chapter in Colorado. The award was the fourth consecutive year that the Black Forest Chapter has received this award, which is based on service to the community. Noteworthy was the chapter's continuous effort to collect food for the needy, an annual free shredding event, assistance at a local school and senior living facility, and several ongoing projects to assist those in the community. The award included a $250 check to help offset chapter expenses.
Veteran's livelihood and the recognition of their contribution to America was the theme at the November Chapter meeting. Each veteran and veteran's widow was presented with a red carnation. Mr. Jim Thackett from the El Paso Veterans Affairs office reviewed the many programs available to veterans and their spouses and fielded questions and comments from the audience.
A catered Thanksgiving meal was provided followed by a short business meeting. Included was the mention that the chapter had donated 100 cans of soup to a needy Native American organization and the collection of Holiday stockings items for the Salvation Army to give to needy children and teens. A $200 cash award was also presented to the Black Forest Cares food bank.
Contact Chuck at 749-9227 if you are interested in participating in this community service organization. Membership is open to all ages.

Two's company
Pairing up is sometimes paramount to life. On the molecular scale, dimerization in our bodies is at the heart of many fundamental biological processes, such as the transduction of signals from the outside of a cell to the inside for instance. Split two molecules apart and, just like taking the propeller away from a ship, things are sure to change drastically. Signal transduction, on which life depends, is hugely due to protein-protein interaction. A ligand recognises its receptor, binds to it, thereby triggering off biological processes downstream. In the case of Kit ligand, and its receptor Kit, their binding is subject to the dimerization of both the ligand and its receptor, following which signals are transduced further downstream triggering off other biological processes. Kit ligand and Kit are a case of substantial conformational change on the molecular level - dimerization but also angles which bring about flexibility - that are necessary for Kit to get on with its job.
