On June 8 auto journalist Gerhard Plattner and co-driver Franz Doppler will attempt to set a world record, driving from Africa, through Europe to Asia in just 72 hours. The duo will depart from Rabat, Morocco in an Audi A3 TDI e, traveling 3,044 miles (4,900 km) through 13 countries before the adventure ends on the Asian side of Istanbul.
The small 105hp Audi will undergo a genuine torture test while en route, testing its safety, efficiency and comfort. "The A3 has ideal characteristics for all three continents. Nevertheless, any attempt to break a record also requires a lot of good luck, especially regarding the weather and traffic," said Plattner at a press conference during the Audi Forum Ingolstadt.
The route will take both Plattner and Doppler by ferry to Spain, where they will drive along the Mediterranean coast of Spain, France and Italy before crossing the Alps into Germany. There they will proceed on to the Balkans and then over the Bosporus to arrive on the Eastern side of Istanbul.
Plattner already holds several records, including the fastest drive around the world (in an Audi S2).
In total he has driven more than 4.3 million miles.

Joe 'Diesel' Riggs will be fighting for the 55th time in his professional career tonight against Mike Bronzoulis at Bellator 106. This fight will determine the winner of Bellator's Fight Master season 1. The fight was originally scheduled in September, but a serious eye injury sustained by Riggs forced the bout to be moved to Bellator 106. Due to Tito Ortiz's injury, Riggs and Bronzoulis will now be fighting on the main card of Bellator 106. I recently spoke with Riggs about his upcoming fight with Bronzoulis, his time on Fight Master, the UFC, and much more.
Bellator 106
I am excited to be on the main card. It is definitely unfortunate what happened to Tito, but at least the fans get to see a great card for free on Spike. The fact that the PPV was scrapped does not really affect me. I was going to fight on Spike TV anyways. Now, more people should be watching my fight and the card as a whole, so that is good.
His relationship with Mike Bronzoulis
Towards the end of the show Mike and I started to become close. We spent a lot of time together so I learned about his upbringing and his background. Being in a house you get close with these guys. As for the fight, it's just business. I have been fighting for so many years, and he has barely started. I have myself and my family to take care of.
His eye and preparation for the fight
My eye has been totally healed for about two months now. I only took off about a week of training and I did not spar for three weeks. I bought headgear that covered my whole face, which allowed me to keep training hard afterwards. I have been training at the MMA Lab with Benson Henderson, Jamie Varner, and Tim Welch. We have a bunch of really tough guys in there and a great head coach in John Crouch. I have never been so prepared for a fight in my life.
Fight Master
There were times I did enjoy, but being away from my family was rough. Overall, it worked out well for me, but it was a really hard thing for me to do. As for the show itself, we didn't have much to do. We would bet on pool games and whoever lost would have to do something terrible. When I lost, I had to shave my entire head bald. The show decided to just show me from having blonde hair to being bald; they never showed me losing the bet. I thought the producers might stop us because they wanted me to keep my hair, but they didn't.
The craziest thing he has seen in his career
Kevin Randleman was getting ready to fight Pedro Rizzo at UFC 24, but tripped and KO'ed himself in the back. They had to scrap the title fight in the middle of the event! Another crazy story was when Diego Sanchez and Nick Diaz were talking crap to each other backstage before their fight, with only a sheet separating them. Nick was cursing him out and eventually threw his shoe at Diego.
Nick Diaz
Nick is crazy dude, man. He is way crazier than his brother. When I fought Nick Diaz, I wasn't in awe of his skill, but in awe of the damage that he was able to take. I was giving him all I had, and he took some really big shots but would not go away. When I think about the hospital brawl we had, I still shake my head in disbelief. I still don't understand how that happened.
Why he still fights after all these years
I absolutely love the sport. When I was younger I would say that I wanted to hurt people and that kind of stuff. Now that I am older, I realize I am a good guy and I don't want to cause anyone physical pain, I just love the sport. At this point in my career I am dialed in. I have never trained like this in my life during the winning streak I am on. I want to fight to the best of my ability and keep it going. The losses I had were all mental. If I come to fight ready mentally, it is very hard to beat me. There is no doubt in my mind that no matter what happens, I will not lose mentally.
One rematch he would love to have
I would really like to fight Mike Swick again. That night, I did not even try to fight him. Mentally, I was not there. He won the fight before I even walked out. My performance that night makes me sick because I know I could have beaten him easily.
His greatest career moment
Definitely getting the call that I would be fighting in the UFC. That was my all time greatest feeling ever. After all my hard work, I finally made it to the big show.

"Eduard Pamfil" International Festival of Young Guitar Players
|Festival Description
The "Eduard Pamfil" International Festival of Young Guitar Players is a competitive festival that takes place in Bucharest, Romania each year. The event is organized by The Romanian Guitar Foundation who awards prizes to the winners of the age categories. Recitals take place in the Concert Hall of "Tinerimea Română" National Art Centre located in 4, Schitu Magureanu Street, opposite to Cişmigiu Park, and next to Bulandra Theatre, Izvor Hall.

|Festival Links
Festival Story:
Eduard Pamfil studied psychiatry at the famous "Sorbonne" University of Paris where he obtained the degree of doctor in medical sciences. In the same period he studied classical guitar, also in Paris, with one of the most important teachers of the 20th century, Emilio Pujol from Spain. He was the first "Romanian guitarist" to perform at the Romanian Athenaeum, playing the Concerto in A major by Mauro Giuliani together with the physicians' orchestra.
From 1983 until 1990 the teacher Eduard Pamfil was a member of the jury of the National Classical Guitar Festival in Sinaia, and in this position, through his attitude and advice, he became the true ideologist of the guitar movement in Romania. Being a guitar teacher, performer, designer, poet and essay writer are just a few of the aspects of the personality of a great psychiatrist and PhD professor whose specialised books have been translated in several languages while he is still considered to be one of the founding fathers of the Romanian school of psychiatry. Through this festival we wish to bring our truest homage to the person who was always a great friend of the guitar and of all guitar lovers.

text: The foodiesphere grows fatter each day...not unlike many of its contributers (a hazard of the hobby). You may have noticed that occassionally my "Fun Links" section grows, but it's an attempt at a very edited list relevant to foodies of Vancouver (but for a more comprehensive food blog and resource list, check out KIPlog's list). I'm fairly selective, and usually a site has gotten me quite excited in order for me to add them. These are spaces that I tend to check in on regularly myself, so I tend to pick sites that update regularly or provide a great reference. For example, I just found a nifty little guide for what wine to pair with your food, or what food to pair with your wine, on the Wine and Dine, B.C. News site. There's also a nice little calendar of local food events there. For example, on November 18th, Lumiere restaurant celebrates its 10th anniversary with "The Inspiration Dinner," where Rob Feenie will cook with Charlie Trotter of Chicago. Twelve courses will be served, but a menu has not been released. Tickets are $1000 (wine, tax, tip, and signed cookbooks included) per person, according to eGullet. Six of those seats will be given to young, up and coming chefs. I can't wait to hear the buzz about it afterwards...assuming that at least one person of the lucky few that attends this dinner connects to the foodiesphere in some way. Almost all of the food writing in print form in Vancouver makes its way onto the web. Will the dinner live up to expectations? And will some lucky food writer get sent over by their publication? Mmmm, media pass dreams... Anyhow, if anyone reading this does go, please give Nancyland an exclusive report!

Navy welcomes the Owls of Florida Atlantic to town this weekend for a game which could propel the Mids to bowl eligibility. After last week's uncompromising beat down of ECU, spirits are high and a win here would set the stage nicely for the three-game run in. Here are three keys for Saturday's game.
1) Stop the Owls momentum early
The Owls may be 2-6 on the season, but they are coming off an upset win over conference rivals Troy last weekend. This win over the five time conference champions was the first Sunbelt victory in 15 attempts for FAU, and you have to believe that they will be coming to Annapolis with a new found confidence and determination.
As a result it is important that Navy get rolling early on Saturday. If the Midshipmen can demoralize the Owls early with a long drive or two that result in points (ideally with a three and out in between) then it stands to reason that life will be easier for the Academy from that point onward.
2) Keep playing mistake free football
Consider these two facts for a moment:
In September the Mids rushed for 217 yards per game and committed 12 turnovers.
In October the Mids rushed for 323 yards per game and committed one turnover.
This speaks for itself really, when Navy doesn't turn the ball over the Midshipmen offense destroys people, when they do the Mids struggle. Keenan Reynolds single greatest impact since taking over the starting quarterback gig has been his ability to lead the team while not making the kind of mistakes we saw in September. Not coincidentally Navy was undefeated for the month of October this year. FAU is not particularly skilled against the run, so a mistake free game should see that rushing total creeping into the 400s once again.
3) Maintain passing efficiency
One of the least likely stats at this point in the season is this one. If Keenan Reynolds had enough pass attempts he would currently be leading the nation in passing efficiency. Reynolds is 27-for-42 for 413 yards and six touchdowns and he has shown an ability to pass that no one in the program was expecting. Sure, he benefits from the element of surprise the option provides, but he still has to make the passes when they are called. If he stays this efficient defenses will notice and the running game will be even more effective.
Three Keys: Navy at Central Michigan
With one hand on the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy Navy should have renewed confidence as the team…

Join 500,000+ Artists
Its' free and it takes less than 10 seconds!
I am Evon Binns and I want to be an artist...in 3 months. So I am already 3 weeks in and going through the basics as best I can. I have my resources and a plan. I have until the end of February to gain the ability to call myself an artist and produce 20 pieces adequate enough for an application to an art school. One time deal.
I have been a long time lurker of these forums (without registering) and I have witnessed the way this community inspires each other to keep improving and pushing forward. So I am hoping to receive a small portion of that support.
I have been consistently doing 8 hours a day for 4 weeks in my sketchpad (no scanner available to show) and I have just recently transferred to Photoshop with this Matt Kohr tutorial to show.
(I goofed the base of the vase something fierce.)
So yes I have decided to be a man and created this one time opportunity for myself and I must see this all to fruition lest be set back 5 years on my life long of being an artist (in this case a concept/sequential artist).

Welcome aboard!
That's looking wonderful. I'd love to see more stuff when you get it into digital, or new stuff you make!!!
Thats a pretty beast vase none the less man. Really liking the lighting in this. Looks so much like a sculpture.
Applying some of that 1 point perspective. My anatomy is not that strong but I am going to try and finish this. I'm kind of amazed at what perspective can do...
So basically the concept here is "Mission complete and heading home." It is the trip home after a successful mission. The setting would be very early morning as the sky changes from night to day. The captain of the squad is telling them good job after a very difficult and dramatic mission. The kind of mission that had no causalities but near deaths were present for all involved.
Wow, now that's a very admirable goal you have there.
-And you seem to be doing pretty well so go for it! *cheering*
WIP. Trying to work without lines. Feels a bit more visceral to be honest. But idk how this will work for larger more complicated pieces. Gonna see how this turns out and try the piece above some more. Ran into a few difficulties with the faces. Probably just need to take it slow.
great studies! subscribed! Can' wait to see more!
Hmm something is off
Great start im trying to get into art school too
Was tired of all the grey and tried out using some colours. Pretty fun. Purple one i had a ref image with a whole bunch of lights. Stopped looking at it after a while. Tried my best not toget caught up with the details. Learning to let go is not easy...
Mostly i lack proper knowledge of the basics. Other than that I need to draw more expressions and more fluid figures. I need to "feel" it more...The biggest thing however is confidence. I know no easy way to do that other than forcing myself to draw and hope for affirmation/confirmation of what i think I can do.
Took a little liberty with the ref and did something else
Hey E,
you're off to a good start. I like the ctrl paint vase study very much.
I did it too! Keep practicing!
Risen from the Dead
Thnx destroyer. I am trying my best almost out of time tho -_-
I need to do more with these quick sketches...

National Lab Reiterates: Wind Power Doesn't Affect Property Values

In another major study released today on wind farms and property values, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) analyzed more than 50,000 home sales near 67 wind facilities in 27 counties across nine U.S. states, yet was unable to uncover any impacts to nearby home property values.
Climate & the Economy: A Rational Solution
By ACORE Interim CEO, Michael Brower 08/22/2013
It should be no surprise that when Gallup asks Americans to choose between economic growth or protecting the environment – during a time when too many Americans are still out of work, living paycheck to paycheck, drowning with college debt, and underemployed – they choose improving economic growth. But even as the economy remains America's number one priority; more and more Americans are calling for action on climate change. Most Americans see the environmental and economic challenges climate change poses, but they also recognize--as the American Council On Renewable Energy (ACORE) does--that clean, renewable energy is a solution to both environmental and economic challenges.
IBM Announces Breakthrough Renewable Energy Forecasting Technology
By Noah Ginsberg 8/16/13
The goal of any renewable energy developer or grid operator is to ensure a smooth flow of electricity stems from a power plant. And there are numerous technologies that aide project developers and grid operators to accurately forecast the weather to maximize the output and efficiency of renewable energy power plants. But none of these technologies come close to IBM's new Hybrid Renewable Energy Forecaster (HyREF). IBM unveiled their newest forecasting systems on August 12th – built with the renowned expertise the world has come to expect from IBM.
Arizona Fights for Its Solar Energy Rights
By Keally Dewitt of ACORE Member Sunrun Inc. 08/16/2013
Arizona Public Service (APS) recently proposed a drastic overhaul of net energy metering (NEM) policy in areas where it operates. APS's plan, submitted in July to the state's utility regulatory body — the Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC) would replace consumer-friendly NEM practices with terms — and economics — more favorable to the monopoly electricity provider.

GM SERIES PART 2: Charging Infrastructure - It's not your father's filling station
By Dan Frakes and Alex Keros 08/02/2013
When developing a new type of vehicle and propulsion system, somewhere along the line infrastructure will be a major part of the equation and needs to be addressed. This article sheds some light into how infrastructure is playing a role in the development of electric vehicles, and how key partnerships with utilities and organizations like the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE) are instrumental in the development of vehicles like the Chevrolet Volt and Spark EV.
SmartGrid/MicroGrid: Transformative Technology for Today's Energy Markets
By Roger Stark 07/30/2013
I recently co-chaired an American Bar Association/American Council on Renewable Energy (ACORE) webinar on SmartGrid and Microgrid technologies. For my inaugural blog post on Renewable + Law, I wanted to share the brief remarks that I made at this July 17, 2013, webinar regarding the importance of both technologies to our evolving 21st Century energy sector: In setting the stage for the presentations, I put forth two propositions, which may be provocative, but highlight the importance of the topic:
Cuts to renewable energy programs show House misaligned with Americans
By Todd Foley 07/16/2013
If you ask any American from any state (red or blue): "What do you see as the energy source of the future?" they will answer "green."
Green energy saves money at the pump and on the monthly power bill, fuels economic growth, and cleans the environment. Polls shows that Americans believe renewable energy is the most promising energy source of the future, not just for its environmental benefits but because of its triple bottom line - jobs, more secure energy resources, and a more resilient and less damaging fuel source. Even more importantly, when you ask Americans what type of energy sources they want their policymakers to support right now, polls show that nearly 80 percent of Americans want their representatives to vote for policies aimed at strengthening American renewable energy. But up on Capitol Hill, despite a history of strong bipartisan support for energy research and development, the majority of policymakers in the House of Representative are doing the exact opposite of what their constituents want. They are tearing apart a variety of programs that support American renewable energy, one of our most economically and environmentally promising industries. While we understand the importance of reducing the nation's debt (and we all must do our part), it is the very technologies being defunded that are the key to the cheaper, cleaner, and more diverse energy supply necessary for a growing economy.
American renewable energy Is powering the American energy transformation
More so than any other time in history, Americans are focusing their attention on energy issues. From the president's recent call to action on climate change to the possibility of finally attaining energy independence by the end of the decade, America appears to be entering a new golden age of energy development - great news for our energy security and economy. But for some policymakers on Capitol Hill, there is a need for a much better understanding that renewable energy is a significant and rapidly growing catalyst driving the American energy transformation.

Election Commission slaps notice on Kejriwal for remarks against Cong, BJP
The Election Commission on Sunday sent a show cause notice to AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal for his alleged remarks against the Congress and BJP saying "ek bhi vote agar Congress ya BJP ko pada toh khuda ke saath, desh ke saath gaddari karoge".
Noting that he violated provisions of the Model Code of Conduct, the EC asked Arvind Kejriwal to explain his stance on May 13, failing which EC will decide without reference to him.
The Election Commission also sent him a copy of the CD carrying his reported remarks. The notice read: "….The Commission is, prima facie, of the opinion that by making the….statements you have violated the provisions of the Model Code of Conduct."
The Commission also reminded him that in accordance to the Model Code of Conduct there shall be no appeal to caste or communal feelings for securing votes.

Maybe with so many clomid cycles, your body has figured out what to do now. Wouldnt that be great? I am excited for you either way, for the IVF consult..and the possibility that you wont even need to persue it further. This is the free consult right?
Alix: Hmm.. did they set you up for an ultrasound yet? you will get a EDD at that point and they will be able to tell you how far along you are at that point. I know my OB GYN wouldnt even do an orientation (and a pregnancy test as well) until you were at least six weeks and no ultrasound until they thought you were past 8 weeks, unless you were having issues, like bleeding. Happy and healthy 9 months to you!!
afm- JD leaves tomorrow. I'll be glad for some peace and quiet.. i swear the two of them together is a constant wrestle fest! I can go into a different room, close the door, and in a minute they are right in there following me, wrestling beside me. It drives me bonkers! I dont care if they wrestle, but geez NOT on top of me, please!
DH is looking forward to BDing, but now that hes made me wait all this time, Im not even really excited. The last time hurt pretty bad, so it wasnt even enjoyable. Im just used to the "no not today, hes in the next room" routine that Im beyond wanting it. Plus, I really think I O'd already so the drive is decreasing anyway. Oh well, his loss. I have to go clean since we are expecting his ex in laws to be here sometime this evening. They wanted to see me and Layla. lol Weird much? Just a lil but i guess its better than ex in law drama.

MADISON, Wis. (WHBL) - The 2011-2013 state budget is headed for the full legislature.
The spending plan was approved by the Joint Finance Committee Friday on a 12 to 5 party line vote. There were more protests during the meeting as about 30 demonstrators had to be removed and arrested for disrupting the discussions.
UW-Madison will not be split off into a separate authority, but UW System schools will have less red tape in such areas as personnel, budgeting and goods and services purchases.
The committee also voted to scale back a plan to privatize enrollment for state aid programs for the poor. It also approved a new tax cut for manufacturing and agricultural businesses

Arnold Schwarzenegger and the Space Elevator
March 10th, 2012
I'm a big fan of Arnold Schwarzenegger, the actor (not so sure about the person) and one of my favorite movies of his was Total Recall. Futuristic, lots of mind-twists, unseen aliens, etc., all things which appeal to a science fiction geeks like me.
In a recent posting on io9, David Hughes tells us how a sequel of Total Recall nearly came into being several times - and, in one of the possible versions, Arnold Schwarzenegger (playing Quaid), goes to work on a construction site for a Seattle-based Space Elevator. From the article:
Dejected and financially dependent on Rekall, Quaid finds a job on the construction site of a Seattle-based 'space elevator' — one of Arthur C. Clarke's proposed constructs tethering an orbital space station to the Earth, allowing payloads to be transported cheaply to and from space.
Meanwhile, an imminent presidential election draws Quaid's attention to an electoral campaign by Gloria Palomares, the President from his dream, denounced by her opponents as a "mutant lover" for promising to hold a referendum on Mars' independence if she is elected. Torn between his feelings for Melina (whom he now believes to be a construct of Rekall) and Renee, one of Mrs Palomares' campaign volunteers, Quaid becomes involved with her political campaign, but is betrayed and framed for an explosion which wrecks the space elevator. Imprisoned for six months in a space prison known as the Pasternak Institute for the Criminally Insane, he manages to escape, and rejoins what remains of the rebels, who tell him of Melina's death.
Why do they always blow up the Space Elevator? And, a Space Elevator based in Seattle? That's more than 47° north of the equator. I don't think so - but hey, it's Hollywood!
The article is a difficult, confusing read and, I guess it was supposed to be as it is an excerpt from Hughes' book, Tales From Development Hell. Reading this excerpt, it seems amazing that anything actually gets done in Hollywood.
But Arnold Schwarzenegger and a Space Elevator? I'd definitely pay to see that…

Yes, we need movies that show a space elevator in action!
Sooner or later we'll get one.
The original Total Recall story was by Philip K. Dick, of course, and he had a 1950's Sci Fi (non-engineering) perspective on space travel and of course his ideas on Mars colonization was rockets, rockets, and more rockets.
The book 3001 by Arthur C. Clark was a fun listen with a megasized orbital tethered spacestation/space colony.
There was a short story in the "Running The Line" collection of space elevator stories that had a similar feel/theme as Philip K. Dick used. It was the one about the cloning and teleportation of the executive guy fakes his own death. What was it called? That would make a good Schwarzenegger sci-fi story.

Hands-up straight away, we've been meaning to write this for ages, but put it off.
As the year draws to an end it is perhaps time to look at procrastination, the 'thief of time'. The reason so many of those big plans for 2010 never got off the ground.
In the modern world with so many distractions, it is easy to see why procrastination is still one of the biggest obstacles to business success, so how can we overcome it? Here are six ways:
Do your To Dos!
There are plenty of task reminder programs out there like Remember the Milk, the good old Outlook tasks list, even traditional pen and paper, so there is no excuse not to make a list of things you need to to. The issue is usually actually doing them. Lists need to be prioritised or at least grouped and with a deadline set. Try and set yourself easy-wins, alongside more intense tasks, so you don't constantly feel overwhelmed. Write everything down on that list too, otherwise you will find yourself working off several different lists at a time all with different items. Even if you have one massive list, by grouping and prioritising you can make it managable.
Have a set time to organise
Set aside an hour or two at the start of the week to assess and re-asses your to-do list. Make sure your list is up to date, realistic and accurate. A little time spent organising at the start of the week will mean you will be much more productive come the end of the week when many more things have been thrown your way. Make your assessment of your to dos realistic. You might be governed by management and business necessity but you also need some autonomy over what tasks and goals you set and when.
Re-assess your priorities during the week
Your todo list should be your guide but not you governor. Things will change daily, even hourly sometimes. You will actually find yourself more productive overall if you take half hour every day, either at the end or beginning to re-assess your list.
Limit your hours for Social Networking
Yes, we know it can be a great marketing tool, but it can also be the biggest procrastination distraction to your working life. If you must monitor your business Twitter account, etc 24/7 then make sure that is all you do. Don't fall into the trap of just checking your personal account while you are there.
Use do not disturb
An hour per day of pure focus on the task in hand and you will find you get much more done – in that hour and beyond. Turn off social networking, close down your email, switch off your phones, even your PC if you can. Deal with one task at a time, work logically through it and close it off, at least as far as you can at that time.
Set some long term goals to
The reason big companies set 5 year and 10 year plans is that they work. It is great to strike off small tasks as you achieve them but you also need to be able to see how each of these slot into the bigger picture. Have a separate list of longer-term goals and pick one out every now and then and move it into your weekly to do list. You might not crack it immediately but over a few weeks you will and by doing so you will also be expanding your business future.
Remember, there really is no better time than now, but the most fun task might not be the most effective one.

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
My son is in 5th grade. He has the best teacher he had ever had. He is learning very quickly in English and French. He used to be in private schools and we were looking for a french program school. Excellent!
Because , My Kids are learning everyday , the regular Class , the Gifted program and French Class. Also , they have a After school French. This School is very warming.
I have seen the school turn around after two years of poor administration. Most teachers are veterans and with lots of experience, they are also very caring. Parent involvement is high. And despite being a small school the diversity of the student/teacher population gives children real-world experiences that teach them about respect and tolerance! There is also fieldtrips, afterschool activities and language programs. Overall a safe and positive environment for children.
In my opinion The Grove is a chid unfriendly township. Unlike Key Biscayne, Coral Gables Pinecrest ( just to name a few) The Grove does not have a Communitee Center and or Children's Sports Center. Sadly the schools reflect this lack of interest. Coconut Grove Elemetary used to be a location kids and famillies came together to grow and bond however since this new administration everything has changed. No more field trips ,no more after school programs , enrichment is ditto papers and workbooks.The Winter program used to be and event not anymore and Authors night? give me a break. So if you are looking to move into The Grove with kids make sure you calculate private schooling or have conections to get into a magnet program in the area. Coconut Grove Elementary is no longer an acceptable option.
I have many concerns with this school lately. With the new principal, the school has gone down-hill. The overall morale has plumeted. Parents and teachers seem to be equally frustrated and disappointed with the way things are headed. The teachers and the gifted program were one of the things I really liked about the school. But I'm afraid they are going to lose some of these amazing veteran teachers. There is little communication with the administration and the once-strong PTA is almost non-existant. The school has lost many of it's high achieving students and hence many of it's involved and supportive parents. I think the district has forgotten about this little gem in the Grove. Because of its size, the school has been ignored and has had some incompetent employees dumped into it's staff. The school counselor does absolutely nothing. He isn't even allowed to speak to the children.
Dedicated teachers who helped my children learn in their own style and spoke/disciplined them in respectful ways.
I have the greatest of hopes for this school. I just wish the principal would engage the parents. As it stands, there is a disconect that has quality parents and students leaving the school for Sunset, Sumerset, and West Lab. These parents bring money and enthusiasm that could take this school to the next level. Not adressing this problem will will sink this school.
Horaay! We are now another school only working for the FCAT, no more music, art for almost a month, no more French Program, everything suspended until after FCAT. It is embarrasing the politics in the school. New Principal: no field trips, no afterchool activities, no prep rally for Fcat; only focusing in looks. Painted the classrooms last year and again this year.. talking about wasting or no budget. It used to be a neighborhood friendly school, well no more. Classes are overcrowed (27 students). We miss our old friendly school!
Great school! The change in principal is great but we miss the old AP. The gifted program is great. People bash one teacher over the other but reality is do you prefer a veteran teacher or one that can produce better FCAT scores. Data speaks for itself.
Great school, small classes, and everyone knows your name... wow! Good diverse student population.
the principal is a great leader, she cares about the kids, the school and the staff. It is a pleasure to visit this school.
This school feels like a big family. The size is ideal. Everyone knows eachother. My daughter is very happy.
feels like a private school. kids are all very friendly and from diverse backgrounds. the smaller school size allows for a lot more feild trips and evening events. my son loves it here!
Our child transferred here from a school in a fancier area and we have been extremely happy. There is tremendous parent involvement, excellent teachers, and a great staff!
Some of the teachers are good but not very friendly.The gifted program quality depends on which teacher you get, and that is sad. The music program is excellent, art is not exsiting and PE is also great. The parents who are involve are always the same!!
The quality of the academics programs are outstanding and the parent involvement is increasing every year. The International program will further enhance the school. This school is small and the enviroment is of a private school. Everyone knows each other.
The academic program is outstanding. The teachers are very professional. The school focuses on the educational well-being of all students.
I pulled my child out of a magnent elem. school and put her into coco elem. I am very impressed wih the teacher/administration knowledge of the students. You are not just a number, after 2 weeks, many staff members called my child by name and knew 'her story'. Pick up is wonderful. When your student sees the parent, they walk to their car. There is not an overprotective pick-up system. This gives the kids a sense of responsibility. Some schools, you have to practically show your id when you pick them up and it's almost the end of the year. The staff has been there forever. This is important to me. The teacers and staff have an impressive tenure. When teachers and admin. have frequent changes, that's not a good sign for me. I went to school there over 20 years ago, and there are still the same teachers.
Excellent school, A variety of activities.

"Featuring but two, Julian Teakle on bass and Peter Escott singing and manipulating the machines, they nonetheless manage to make a basement-rumbling, intimate beast of a sound that captivates even as it oftentimes disturbs. Minimalist and softly nightmarish like Young Marble Giants in an updated Edgar Allen Poe allegory, there's really no one sounds anything like them."
Listening to Rough Mixes of the Tomboy 12" and I'm pretty sure this will be one of the best records of 2014.

Very lovely review of the Saralee 12" from Termbo. Saralee "repress" will be done this week!
Saralee s/t LP
Debut full length from Boston's Saralee, a co-ed duo (Sara on vox/guitar, Lee on drums!) who already had some demos under their belt. It's rare to hear this kind of nearly twee lo-fi indie rock done well, but Saralee succeed with plenty ofcharisma and a ramshackle quality that reminds me of the Dawn Johnson/Rob Vazquez bands like Man Tee Mans or Gorls. Things never get too punky, but could be called quite garagey and there's a great sense of humor evident on tunes like "Children of the Night" or "Jackolantern House". Of course this stuff has to be a bit cute to work as well, and Sara's vocals convey the necessary girlish charm but never sound weak either. A bit reminscent of Barbara Manning even. Great recording sound, the guitar rings brightly while the drums ride shotgun and don't overpower. I challenge you to listen to "Lead the Fire" and not become charmed. A surprisingly well executed and personable record in a style that's difficult to pull off - I like this quite a bit. You never know what you're gonna get from Ride the Snake, and that's a good thing. Scum stats: 200 copies, sold out already?!(RK)

While "The Artist" is expected to do well at the Feb. 26 Oscars, the film has some new hardware for the mantle courtesy of its four-legged cast member. Uggie won a Pawscar.
The Jack Russell terrier took home the prize on Thursday (Feb. 9) for "Best Scene Stealer" at the competition put on by the American Humane Association.
"Not only did Uggie steal the hearts of [the] audience, he also stole the hearts of his co-stars," the AHA says in a release. "Uggie even managed to continue stealing the spotlight when the camera person at the Golden Globes couldn't take the camera off him during the cast's acceptance speech as 'The Artist' won Best Film."
Other winners include "War Horse," "Dolphin Tale" and "Mr. Popper's Penguins" (for Best Dressed, of course). In the "Best Speaking Role, Ever" category, the winner was Cosmo from the Ewan McGregor and Christopher Plummer film "Beginners."
It's a Pawscar for Uggie the dog

"Just seven days after Pat Tillman's death, a top general warned there were strong indications that it was friendly fire and President Bush might embarrass himself if he said the NFL star-turned-soldier died in an ambush… The memo reinforces suspicions that the Pentagon was more concerned with sparing officials from embarrassment than with leveling with Tillman's family." A White House spokesman said "that a review of records turned up no indication that the president had received McChrystal's warning."
Bush sent memo on truth about Tillman's death.

Thesis (Working Title):
Immigration in the Context of Globalization: Impact on Assimilation of Individuals in a New Society
Advancement in the fields of communication and technology is making goods and services increasingly easier for a larger number of people to access nowadays. This has begun to blur global society's several previously more pronounced cultural boundaries, thereby creating the possibility of a culturally homogenous world. On the contrary, it has the potential to create discord among certain segments of the global society due to increasingly fluid cultural norms leading to a sense of loss of cultural identity. Under Dr. Kenney's supervision, I would like to explore how various social factors shape expatriates' and immigrants' behavior towards people of the foreign or new land and vice versa.

BOARDMAN, Ohio — It was not the sunniest of days for the San Francisco 49ers.
Still, coach Jim Harbaugh refused to let a daylong rain dampen plans to get the 49ers' offense untracked Wednesday.
Still smarting from a 24-13 loss at Minnesota on Sunday, Harbaugh directed a morning walkthough on the rain-slickened asphalt of a hotel parking lot. Then practice took place in rain at their home-away-from home, Stambaugh Stadium at nearby Youngstown State.
The 49ers moved practice to Ohio this week in preparation for playing the Jets in New York on Sunday.
Patrick Willis, Brandon Jacobs, Ted Ginn returned from injuries to work in full pads, though nose tackle Isaac Sopoaga, nursing a left knee injury, did not.

new town, same old...maybe0 Reviews
Frank moves to a new town unexpected friends and even a boyfriend to wipe away the scars of his past. First fanfic and it's awful!!
I could see the sunlight drifting slowly through my eyelids as they fluttered open. Oh, great, new town, new school, new bullies. Perfect. My life is now complete. I rolled over and groaned as my 4 foot 11 inch lump of a scruffy punk body made contact with the floor. Picking myself up, I grabbed some random clothes, pulled them on and sauntered in a zombie trance to the bathroom. I looked in the mirror and my hair looked like a chaos theory at work, so I grabbed the brush and started raking it with a clump of gel through my jet black bangs.
"Friggin in the riggin
Friggin in the riggin
Friggin in the riggin
Cause there was fuck all else to do" I murmered softly as I raked the toothbrush over my teeth and smudged some red eyeliner around my eyes. That's when I looked down at myself and laughed.
"Gonna get called a fag today my boy, gonna get called a fag." I stated to myself, chuckling as I ambled downstairs. Hmmmm. Poptarts, my favourite! I skipped into the kitchen and dumped myself on the chair.
" Morning Frankie- boy!" My Dad practially screamed, and he (yeah laugh it up now) ruffled my hair.
"Morning Dad." My mouth was dripping with poptarts and coffee as my Mother eyed my clothes unnaprovingly. I had my ripped up jet black skinnies on with a skintight bright pink sex pistols t-shirt and VERY bright pink converse on. HA. Lets see how they like THAT at this so called hell hole they call a school. I finished my poptarts and looked at the clock. It screamed ten to eight at me in angry red letters, without a word I grabbed my bag and legged it out the front door.
"Watch the fuck where your going. Jeez!" I looked up and saw a rather sturdy punk girl looking down on me with a massive smirk plastered across her face. Ihad just run smack bang into her and I was now feeling like I was going to cry.
"Hey, I'm Jackie" Stated the girl, "This is Cheyenne, and that's Hollie." She motioned over her left and right shoulders to two girls with similar styles to mine, who looked rather scared and slightly nervous. Hold on, this was New Jersey... She had an English accent! I must have had my mouth open staring at the odd trio because Jackie started laughing, insaneley and loudly.
" Are you gonna just stand there or walk with us? I take it your new by the unpacking boxes, we're new too. You go to the Public High School down the road?"
"Uhmmm...yeah. M-my name's Frank, Frank Iero." My face was getting kinda hot as she grabbed my arm and pulled me into a hug and gave me a nuggie. The other two started smilimg and the girl called Hollie shouted.
" For God's sake, stop persecuting the boy! Jesus woman! One day I swear your attraction to talking to complete strangers will get you killed." All three of the girls smirked at some untold memory and we started off down the road. Maybe today wouldn't be so bad, wierd, yes, but maybe not bad.
Hollie's P.O.V.
So, we already had a friend and he seemed like quite a nice kid in my opinion. When he ran straight into Jackie though. I honestly thought his life would be over. She doesn't take too kindly to being shoved around, but she actually seemed okay with it. Anger management issues have gotten better then.
The bell rung, signalling first class, Jackie and Cheyenne had been bumped up a grade, so they were with me. Smart ass nerds that they were. We walked into first class and it was ,math...eeew.
Cheyenne's P.O.V
I was shitting it. New school, so much bigger than wrockers. And in America, really?? I had enough trouble fitting in without a load of cheerleaders added into the mix. For heavens sake, I can't even DO P.E!!
Jackie's P.O.V.
I kicked the door open to math and walked up to the teacher.
"Hey, we're the new kids!"

Arizona Coyotes
Coyotes goalie Mike Smith says team is finding groove
Phoenix Coyotes goaltender Mike Smith is feeling more confident in how he's playing now than he did at the beginning of the season.
Smith said he entered game one coming off the lockout against the Dallas Stars feeling prepped and ready to go.
And then the puck dropped.
"I thought I was ready until I let in 10 goals in the first two games," Smith laughed as he told Arizona Sports 620's Doug and Wolf. "Then it was pretty adamant that I wasn't ready, (but) I feel like I've came a long way since then."
Come a long way he has, as Smith has had three shutouts in the past eight games. One of those shutouts came on Monday night against the Calgary Flames, as the Coyotes won big 4-0 at Jobing.com Arena.
Smith said the team is finally playing their way of hockey: "The consistency aspect of playing the right way."
"We got away from that a little bit at the start of the season, (and) we weren't clicking on all cylinders as our team has done in the past," Smith said. "We win the right way, and that's getting contributions from everyone throughout the whole lineup. We find ways to get great minutes from our third and fourth line players. We have great depth throughout our organization and that's what made us successful in the past."
Smith gave credit to the teams that came out of the lockout already playing great hockey, but says there's a key difference between those teams and the Coyotes.
"The teams that did well early in the season ... are the teams that have really high skilled players," Smith said. "Not that we don't ... (but) the lockout didn't hurt those guys as much as it did with the teams that rely on their whole nucleus of players.
"I really believe we have come a long way."

EU to ease licensing rules for iTunes, other digital music stores
The European Union is looking to make it easier for Apple to sell music across the entire EU at once. Currently, music copyrights are issued on a country-by-country basis, so users can only purchase songs from their home country. But an effort to promote licensing across the entire bloc has prompted a proposed change in the rules that targets how royalty-collection societies conduct their business, Bloomberg reports.
While iTunes has been in some parts of the European Union for years, it only reached countries such as Poland, Hungary and the Czech Republic in 2011. The blame for the slow rollout is placed on onerous music licensing.

Strange New Leaf-Nosed Bat Found in Vietnam
Nose projections may help species catch prey.
Published February 24, 2012
A new species of bat whose face bristles with leaf-like protrusions has been discovered in Vietnam, a new study says.
When scientists first spotted Griffin's leaf-nosed bat in Chu Mom Ray National Park in 2008, the animal was almost mistaken for a known species, the great leaf-nosed bat, said Vu Dinh Thong, of the Vietnam Academy of Science and Technology in Hanoi.
Still, Vu Dinh and his team, thinking there was a chance the bat might in fact be new to science, used nets to catch some of the docile animals.
"While captured, some similar body-sized bats, i.e. [the] great leaf-nosed bat, reacts very angrily," he said by email. "But Griffin's leaf-nosed bat seems quite gentle."
The team did, however, have to contend with some vexing creatures—the "unbelievably high" number of leeches that take over Chu Mom Ray during rainy season, he said.2 notes ---

over a downhill on a rough one any day of the week.
I suffer from Raynauds and knew that i'd have to take care of my hands cycling in winter months, but we're not there yet.
I went out yesterday and had to stop twice (at 15 and 20 miles) because i literally had no feeling in my right hand whatsoever - i couldn't brake or change gear
The first stop was during a long stretch of downhill which i should have been thoroughly enjoying but i was getting shook all over the place. The second one was on the flat but similar surface.
I only had to stop for a minute or so but still, that's not a good thing.
I've had a bike fit done. Are gloves going to be any help? If so what am i looking for? Is there anything else (apart from a major roadwork initiative) that'll help me?
The question is, is the problem related to the Reynaulds or to the vibrations of the road and in both cases then the answer would be yes, gloves every timeThey will go some way to saving your knuckles as well
Gloves! You should deff wear bike gloves the padding absorbs some of the road vibration. Look at your bar tape to, if its old or thin, look at getting some thicker more absorbant bar tape.
I stuck gel pads for high-heeled shoes (the ones to cushion the ball of your foot) inside my gloves, and they made a big difference.
You need gloves fingerless in summer and full fingered in winter. Proper bike ones that have done padding in help too. I'm known to wear two pairs on winter rides
Reynauds here as well good quality thick tape (i use Easton) and padded bike gloves every trip i tend to get it more in the cold beware of having your winter gloves to tight you want dome spacevin there for a nice warm bit of air also i use inner gloves and wind/ showerproof outer ones
My hands are a major pain after cold swims they can add ages to transition as i try snd get them to function
Nurse Ratched wrote (see)
I stuck gel pads for high-heeled shoes (the ones to cushion the ball of your foot) inside my gloves, and they made a big difference.
I do wear fingerless gloves now, albeit cheapies from Aldi. Should i be looking for something a bit more technical - is there such a thing?
Top tip there Nursie, i'll try that.
The more i think about it i wonder if it's my hand postioning? I beleive my raynauds is linked to carpel tunnel. I used to wear splints to straighten out my wrists to encourage blood flow.

Raynauds is also worsened by cooler temperature (i get problems with toes in cold open water). Gloves for the gel pads, but also warmth. You can get long finger summer gloves. I used Gore windstopper for cooler days, neoprene or waterproof for very cold. For swimming I bought Huub booties (did the trick) and gloves and found out at what temperature I needed to wear them as it warmed up during the season.
