Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO discussed the results of the financial statement audits of the General Services Administration (GSA), the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and the Department of Transportation (DOT).
GAO noted that: (1) GSA is the federal government's business manager and is responsible for space acquisition and management, retail and wholesale supply sales, fleet management, travel and transportation management, telecommunications and information management, and governmentwide policy on procurement, travel and transportation, and electronic commerce; (2) GSA's expenses for fiscal year (FY) 1998 totalled $11.7 billion; (3) GSA received an unqualified audit opinion on its FY 1997 and FY 1998 financial statements; (4) for FY 1998, GSA's independent public accountant (IPA), whose audit report was timely issued, concluded that internal controls over financial reporting were effective; (5) however, the IPA identified three reportable conditions and reported noncompliance with the Federal Financial Management Improvement Act (FFMIA) of 1996 financial systems requirements related to weak information technology access controls and application of security policies and procedures; (6) EPA is responsible for carrying out various statutory authorities directed at controlling pollution and other human health and environmental risks; (7) EPA's expenses for FY 1997 totalled $6.9 billion; (8) although EPA received an unqualified opinion on its timely issued FY 1997 financial statements, as of September 27, 1999, it had not released its audited FY 1998 financial statements, which were due March 1, 1999; (9) although EPA received an unqualified opinion on its FY 1997 financial statements, the EPA's Inspector General (IG) reported one material weakness which related to the difficulties encountered by EPA in estimating the Superfund Trust Fund's year-end unbilled oversight costs for monitoring the cleanup of hazardous waste sites; (10) at the request of the IG, the agency performed additional analyses and recalculated the accounts receivable balance related to these unbilled oversight costs; (11) the Office of Inspector General also cited eight reportable conditions and three areas of noncompliance with laws and regulations; (12) DOT establishes and implements national transportation policy for the federal government; (13) DOT's reported net costs for FY 1998 were $41 billion; (14) DOT's IG was unable to express an opinion on DOT's FY 1998 and FY 1997 consolidated financial statements; (15) both reports were issued about 1 month after they were due; and (16) DOT's IG found that DOT was not in compliance with FFMIA and two other laws and regulations.

Kawasaki's ZX-10R evokes thoughts of rip-roaring power and handling best suited to race circuits. While that may have been the case of the original 2004 model, subsequent models have been diluted to the point where ZX-10R is regarded as a decent on the road superbike but not quite in touch with the competition of the latest Blade, techno-laden R1 and ...
1043cc, 138bhp, 165mph, Insurance group 15
Loosely based on Kawasaki's excellent Z1000, the SX fits snugly in to the gap between said naked bike and the track orientated ZX-10R, making it a grown-up bike for the real world. The near 140bhp inline four motor gives sporting potential, but creature comforts like a new seat, vibration reduction and additional fairing make it a viable long-distance touring bike. For many riders this ...
1352cc, 139bhp, 151mph, Insurance group 17
Kawasaki has given the GTR a significant upgrade, added to the comfort of the original model with a larger screen and include heated grips as standard. But more interestingly they've improved the safety of their flagship tourer with new ABS and traction control. The traction control is really impressive and works off the ABS wheel sensors and is the most ...
998cc, 185.4bhp, 186mph, Insurance group 17
The new Kawasaki ZX-10R scores an easy five out of five; it surely must be the fastest production 1000cc bike of the current crop. But this ZX-10R is not all about Kawasaki's new blistering engine and head-banging attitude, it's controllable and handles much better than the previous ZX-10R and despite the blistering pace is actually easier to ride. Not for ...
The Kawasaki GTR1400 is the long-awaited, long-rumoured flagship sports tourer based on the powerhouse ZZ-R1400 – and it's been worth the wait. The GTR1400 is a classy, smooth and potent bit of kit, delivering a magic carpet ride across continents better than virtually anything else/ It may lack the proven reputation and long options list of BMW but in virtually ...
1199cc, 178bhp, 185mph, Insurance group 17
For many owners the Kawasaki ZX-12R combines the best aspects of the Honda Blackbird or Hayabusa, but mixes in a dose of good old fashioned lairy fun. The Kawasaki ZX-12R is a beefy, roomy sports-tourer, with an engine that keeps tempting you to open it up. Decent build quality too.
1352cc, 197bhp, 187mph, Insurance group 17
The Kawasaki ZZ-R1400 is not only the fastest, most powerful motorcycle you can buy, but happens to be an extremely capable all-round machine too. Limited to 186mph (300kmh) – but the Kawasaki ZZ-R1400 will do it with a gear to spare. Capable of commuting, two up sporty touring, track days, drag racing, posing – almost anything is possible on the ...
998cc, 181bhp, 182mph, Insurance group 17
Slightly more user friendly than the psycho C-model Kawasaki ZX-10R of 2004/05 but the latest Kawasaki ZX-10R is still a pretty extreme, track focused missile. Competitive in the 1000cc sports category, so obscenely fast and fine handling. Kawasaki ZX-10R headlights not to everyone's taste visually but it's a look that gets cars out of the way sharpish.
1052cc, 123bhp, 155mph, Insurance group 14
The Kawasaki GPZ1100 is more sporty tourer than sports tourer. Launched with zero cutting edge technology but a honking great engine with a hearty midrange that makes rapid riding easy. On the spec sheet the Kawasaki GPZ1100 is an overweight dinosaur but on the road it's actually a great machine. Just don't go chasing the latest GSX-Rs on a twisty road.
1052cc, 147bhp, 172mph, Insurance group 16
The ZZ-R11 long reigned as speed top dog, but that all changed in 1996 when Honda's Super Blackbird assumed the title of "Fastest Production Motorcycle". Intriguingly, however, the ZZ-R continues to impress, aceing the the Blackbird in top gear roll on tests, remaining a great all-rounder and now being better value than ever.

After working as an anchor of a TV travel show called "Full Circle" from 2006-07 and as a model in India, the raven-haired Bombay beauty Frieda Pinto got her big break when Danny Boyle chose her to be the female lead in Best Picture winner "Slumdog Millionaire" (2008). It was just after she'd earned a bachelor's degree in English literature from St. Xavier's College and started taking acting classes from theater guru Barry John. Previously engaged to publicist Rohan Antao, she moved on and in with her "Slumdog" costar Dev Patel. After appearing in a Bruno Mars video and dabbling in big-budget fare like "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" and "Immortals," she will next be seen in Terrence Malick's "Knight of Cups." In her spare time, she works with Andre Agassi's charity foundation and does work with the UN, Plan International and the World Bank to promote female empowerment and education and stop genital mutilation and child marriage around the world.

Tea Party Nation founders Judson and Sherry Phillips have endorsed Robin Smith in the 3rd Congressional District Republican primary.
"Robin is a true conservative," Mr. Phillips said in a news release. "She has supported the tea party movement since its beginning and spoke at the very first tea party rally I held at Legislative Plaza in downtown Nashville in February 2009."
He said "some politicians waited to see which way the wind was blowing," but that Mrs. Smith "jumped in with her convictions and her full support."
"Other politicians conditioned their support on being publicly associated with the tea party movement and wanted to know what they could gain," said Mr. Phillips. "Robin, on the other, has worked tirelessly behind the scenes motivated only by her desire to help this country."
Tea Party Nation joins Chattanooga Tea Party leaders Mark West and Karen Chastain in endorsing Mrs. Smith.
Get breaking news from the Times Free Press on Twitter at www.twitter.com/timesfreepress or by visiting us on Facebook or Twitter at the right:
There are many in the Chattanooga Tea Party who do NOT endorse Robin Smith. I know of a lot more tea party activists who are supporting Van Irion. Robin "talks the talk" but Van walks the walk. We can depend on him to follow the Constitution ... and that, after all, is the job description.
I am a tea party member and I DON'T endorse her. She supports Zach Wamp and he voted for TARP. She doesn't know the difference between Flat Tax and Fair Tax. Listen to her and you can hear some of the same old thing we have been hearing from all the politicians that are in Washington now. I stopped going to the Chattanooga Tea Party when they did that farce of a straw poll a couple of months ago. The whole thing was ridiculous, they just wanted us to write down whether or not we had picked our candidate. Why were they afraid to ask who? The straw poll from Bradley County was one poll Robin won, if you had money you could vote and vote often. I saw that as a huge sham and she uses it as some sort of endorsement.
I am a Reagan Conservative, however should she receive the Republican nomination, I wish the Democratic nominee the best of luck in November. She gives the Republican Party a bad name and would be the Right Wing version of Nancy Pelosi and God knows we don't need another one of those. It's not personal, her practice of "win at all costs" tactics (including trashing other candidates and people who support them)are distasteful and simple not worthy to be in the House of Representatives.
I understand that Robin has had a few "Mel Gibson moments" in conversations with supporters of other candidates during the course of the campaign. It will be interesting to see if any of those hot-tempered incidents come into public view before the election.
I'm a yellow dog democrat and think the tea party is basically espousing a delusional and antiquarian way of a world that is two centuries gone by, so you are forewarned; however, a little decency would help Tennessee politics. I know Robin personally and she is a very nice woman, mother and wife who does not deserve nor merit the denigrating comments above - regardless of your politics or hers - and the fact she supported wump! If I can overlook that you ought to be able to find a way to be polite in your own party. If you don't like her, let your vote do the talking - not your mouth.
Mr. Phillips is a TP fraud - the three Robin supporters from the Chattanooga Tea Party did not support his so called national tea party convention - because they saw him as a fraud as well. I'm sure that they don't really like their name associated with his.
I would guess that about 60+ % of the Chatt Tea Party support Van Irion - as well as many of the leaders of the CTP including Brendan Jennings, Tony Kubik, Carol Grohn, and myself. In addition - Van has polled about 90% of the Tea Party vote across the third district.
For Ms. Smith, an establishment Republican desperate to lose that label - you got the wrong guy to help - Judson Phillips is what we call Teastablishment or teapublican.
Van Irion is the right person for the job.
I don't know about the rest of you, but after reading the comments by inquiringmind, I will never vote for Robin Smith. If that is the type of person she attracts, she is not what I am looking for. Inquiringmind is right abour one thing though, this nation is changing, for the worst. His attitude and others like him, is exactly why. We need to find elected people who still hold the feelings of respect for the constitution and who love this country. If you don't want us to get back to a moral, God loving nation, PLEASE LEAVE. There plently of places where you'll be welcome.
Any Tea Party group that endorses Robin Smith is not a constitutionalist entity and therefore false. Research, think, learn. If it is true that this Tea Party Nation group is spouting this drivel I am sure they will be soon dissolved in the minds of those who understand what the Constitutionalist movement is all about.

So these are the convertible mittens that I made for thechunkyknitter as part of my give away! She just messaged me that she received the package, so I can now post pictures- yay! These are the very first fingerless mitts/convertible mitten/etc. that I have ever made. And I loved how they turned out. I thought the color was beautiful and they are super adorable and I'm going to make a pair for myself before winter. They didn't turn out perfectly- but they are still pretty freaking awesome if I do say so myself.
They're lovely!!

This interactive breakout session is designed to give several easy to learn networking tools that will help conference attendees gain confidence in their ability to connect, improve their level of professionalism while networking and then leverage the contacts they make after the conference.
Author, networking guru, and Introvert Icon Richard Oceguera brings reverence and a sense of play to making connections. He knows that community is foundational in building business.
And he knows the quiet strength of the introvert. His compassionate philosophy to coaching is simple – Everyone has something to offer; everyone has the right, and the power, to shine.
This former wallflower is now a multi-award winning entrepreneur; the founder of several six-figure businesses; (including a Chamber of Commerce in NYC); the author of Convert Your Community to Cash: Monetize Your Connections; and a national television spokesperson on networking for business professionals.

Stock Prices in the Stock Market
>>FREE Download - Quick Start Guide to Investing in Philippine stock market! Click here!<<
Stock Prices and How to Use Them
And so it's quite imperative to have a closer look on this important figure whose swings and sways drive all market participants really crazy, whether small investors like you and me, or big time managers who run and control the funds of big foreign or international investment firm.
The Different Prices
We can easily see some of these prices whenever we see quotes of a stock through your stockbroker, or through the website of the stock exchange – Philippine Stock Exchange (PSE) in the case of Philippine stocks.
For online stockbrokers, a stock quote is usually accompanied by some other related stock data that aid us in doing our analysis.
Let's tackle these prices one by one.
Thus, it gives you a hint on whether it's a cheap (or overvalued) stock when compared to its fundamental or book value.
There are rules (or algorithms) followed in determining the opening and closing price of a stock, which depends on the price and volume of all pending orders during the Pre-open and pre-close periods respectively.
- HIGH and LOW PRICE
It gives you the price range in which the stock moved during the trading day, and thus an idea on the extent of the perceived value of the stock.
- BID and ASK/OFFER PRICE
These bid and ask forces are the ways how the market shout out its voice in dictating the market price.
As a result, in any trading day, any stock can only be up or down by at most 50%.
- DYN T LOW and DYN T HIGH
Dynamic Threshold means the permitted difference in price between two Last Traded Price updates for a given security. In the picture above, the Dyn T Low and Dyn T High therefore sets the highest and lowest next match price for every Last Traded Price. The next trading price should fall within this interval. This in effect controls the extent of jump of a stock price within the trading hours.
That too many prices huh?
With these prices in mind, you now have more idea on the most important figure of the stock market!
Have fun investing!

Jessica is the Senior Accessioning Archivist at the Library of Virginia. She holds degrees from the University of Virginia and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
The Library of Virginia recently acquired business records of Ephraim Baker (1836-1919) of Mount Olive, Virginia (Accession 51052). Baker, born on 13 December 1836 in Topnot, Shenandoah County, Virginia, was the son of Lewis Baker (1808-1889) and Anna Dellinger (1811-1879). He operated a general store in Mount Olive for most of his life. The store was used as a hospital during the Civil War. Ephraim Baker was married twice, and died on 19 June 1919. He is buried in St. Stephen's Cemetery in Strasburg.
The majority of the collection consists of correspondence, accounts, and accounts of sales to Baker from commission merchants in Alexandria and Baltimore. The correspondence includes information on market conditions and current prices of goods being sold. There are also circulars, advertisements, and price lists from various merchants. Baker was an agent for the Davis Sewing Machine Company of Watertown, New York, and the collection contains correspondence and invoices from the company's headquarters. Also included are customer orders from local residents requesting goods from Baker's store.
Among the records is an 1871 Green & Brother catalog with annotated prices. Nineteenth century furniture catalogs or price lists are fairly unusual to find, and this one has particular importance for the furniture making business in Virginia. As early as 1820, English born cabinetmaker William Green was advertising his furniture in the Alexandria … read more »
In late 1943, Leona Robbins was 12 years old and living in Norfolk, Virginia. Her neighbor and close family friend, Army Lieutenant Charles Field, was headed overseas, where he would be stationed in Norfolk, England. Field suggested that Leona and her friends pull together some toys to distribute to the children there. England had been at war for over four years at that point, and the deprivation and danger faced by its citizens was considerable. Leona responded sympathetically, gathering some dolls and toy cars for the children.
Lt. Field delivered the package to the junior school in the village of Carbrooke, Thetford, Norfolk, in March 1944. Headmistress Mary Norton and each of the children in her class wrote Leona letters of thanks and introduction. Miss Norton spoke highly of the American soldiers, who had thrown two separate Christmas parties for the children the previous December: "They spoilt our children, and consequently are very popular! I honestly think this last was the best Christmas our children have had since 1939." The students also drew pictures, including some of a christening ceremony they had for the dolls (naming one of them Leona Mary).
The correspondence continued for a little over a year, with each side sending letters and small gifts. The letters show typically curious children, wanting to compare ages, schools, recreational activities, and vacation schedules with … read more »
Archivists and others in history-related careers aren't always known for being overly interested in embracing emerging technologies. A good many of us regard social media only as a fun diversion in our personal lives, with no obvious application to our professional goals. With that narrow mindset, we might as well cede the point to the chorus of naysayers proclaiming that the internet will eventually make libraries and archives irrelevant.
And yet somehow, Dale Dulaney, one of those "I refuse to ever join Facebook" guys, knew that social media could be the perfect tool to ignite an interest in and respect for archives and the work of archivists. He knew that the Library of Virginia (like so many other cultural institutions) had to make its relevance obvious in a time when crippling funding cuts are always a possibility. He knew that archives are often misunderstood or completely overlooked by the public at large. He also knew that the LVA's archives housed all kinds of unique research treasures, records ranging from poignant to hilarious, to just plain useful. And he knew that we had at our fingertips a fast and low-cost way to show an often oblivious world that archives and archivists – what we have and what we do – matter.
I'll spare you the details of the exhaustive work Dale invested to get this blog … read more »
Before the Civil War, Virginia did not have a comprehensive public school system. Lawmakers passed various measures to fund public schools, but these measures were directed primarily toward schools for a small segment of the population, the children of indigent white families. These schools were known as "free schools" or "charity schools," and only the very poor attended. African Americans, free and enslaved, were excluded from these schools because it was illegal to teach them. With the end of the Civil War and ratification of a new state constitution in 1870, lawmakers established Virginia's first public school system for all children, in order to "prevent children growing up in ignorance, or becoming vagrants."
As local officials complied with the new state law, they set about drawing school districts segregated by race. This could be a challenge, however. While cataloging Alexandria/Arlington County school records recently, I came upon this hand-drawn map of Jefferson Township (in what was then Alexandria County, part of present-day urban Arlington), which shows white and African American families living closely together. To create two districts segregated by race, the map-maker drew what looks like a badly gerrymandered voting district. The map was attached to an 1870 census of school-aged children in Jefferson Township. Each dwelling is designated W ("white") or C ("colored").
Jefferson Township was located near what is now Crystal City … read more »
One of the benefits of studying more recent history is the opportunity to see and hear historical figures on film, providing information about speech, mannerisms, and personality that can be difficult to capture in words. For students of 20th-century Virginia history, a series of public television programs taped in the mid-1970s to late 1980s gives just this sort of glimpse at key state leaders.
Hosted by Richmond Times-Dispatch (RT-D) political reporter James Latimer (1913–2000), and jointly produced by Central Virginia Educational Television and the RT-D, the Living History Makers series featured lengthy interviews of influential Virginia politicians. While the details of each man's career have been hashed out in print many times, these extensive on-camera interviews breathe life into the story of Virginia's leadership during times of exceptional stress, including World War II and the battle over school desegregation.
In 1975, Colgate W. Darden (1897–1981, governor 1942–1946) and William M. Tuck (1896–1983, governor 1946–1950) sat down with Latimer for the first Living History Makers program. As public personas, the two men were strikingly different. While the dignified Darden was once hailed by a political opponent as "the noblest Roman of them all," Tuck was a brash good-timer described by the Richmond News Leader as having "the comfortable appearance of a man who has just dined on a dozen pork chops." Yet the two … read more »
Fraternal orders. Military regiments. Agricultural societies. Women's organizations. Religious associations. Political parties. Schools. The Library of Virginia houses more than 650 collections of organization records from a variety of groups. Ranging in size from one leaf of paper to over 70 cubic feet of material, these collections contain accounts, agendas, architectural drawings, correspondence, financial records, minutes, photographs, programs, reports, schedules, and other papers that detail the goals and histories of these groups. Organization records include other types of media, including audio recordings in reel-to-reel tapes, cassette tapes, and CDs; video recordings in cassettes and DVDs; and even archived websites. Now, information about all of these collections is gathered in the Organization Records Guide, an on-line resource located on the Library of Virginia's website.
The guide is organized alphabetically by organization name and includes a letter index at its top to facilitate searching. Each entry contains the name of the organization, the title of the collection (whether records, account book, etc.), date range and size, accession number, a description of the material, and whether the materials are originals or copies. Entries link to catalog records and, where applicable, to on-line finding aids and databases created for the collections, or to archived websites. The Organization Records Guide will be updated on a regular basis as new collections are added to the Library and catalogued. Jason Roma … read more »
Editors Note: This post is a modified version of an article that originally appeared in the former "Virginiana" section of Virginia Memory.
The Watkins Family Papers (Accession 42063) include certificates, newspaper clippings, photographs, postcards, programs, and yearbooks documenting a prominent African American family in New Kent County, Virginia. While much of the collection consists of Jones and Watkins family photographs from Richmond and New Kent County, the collection is also significant for its connection to the struggle for school desegregation in Virginia.
Dr. George Washington Watkins (1898-1972) was born in Pickens County, South Carolina, the son of James and Lattie Watkins. He received a Bachelor of Arts degree (and later an Honorary Doctorate of Divinity) from Virginia Union University, and a Master of Arts degree from Hampton Institute.
Watkins is perhaps best known for his work in education, chiefly as principal of the New Kent Training School (renamed the George W. Watkins School in 1950). This school played an important role in the education of African Americans in the area and was at the center of one of the most significant school integration rulings to follow Brown v. Board of Education (1954). He was also a pastor, heading congregations at Second Liberty Baptist Church of Quinton, and Elam Baptist Church of Ruthville.
In 1930, there were 15 elementary schools in New Kent County, … read more »

(SoapOperaNetwork) — Does mother know best in Pine Valley? Continuing in their efforts to build a formidable Hispanic presence, "All My Children" casts the Castillo family matriarch..
Elena Campbell-Martinez debuts on "All My Children" on Thursday, March 3. Campbell-Martinez will portray Leticia Castillo, the opinionated mother of Griffin (Jordi Vilasuso) and Cara (Lindsay Hartley) Castillo. At this time, the role is recurring.
The Mexican-American actress who started her acting career just twelve years ago is not new to the world of daytime drama. Campbell-Martinez started her daytime career on NBC's "Passions" in multiple minor roles from 2005 to 2007. She followed those appearances with small roles on both ABC's "General Hospital" and CBS' "The Bold and the Beautiful". The actress has also guest starred on several popular prime-time series including CBS' "The Big Bang Theory" and "Criminal Minds," ABC's "Brothers & Sisters" and Nickelodeon's "Zoey 101."
Look for the Castillo matriarch to take a staunch stand regarding her daughter Cara's complicated relationships with both former son-in-law Dr. Jake Martin (Ricky Paull Goldin) and potential future son-in-law (Stay Tuned!) Tad Martin (Michael E. Knight).

The Birmingham Canal Navigations Society (BCNS) aims to conserve, improve and encourage a wide range of interests in the 100 mile network of the Birmingham and Black Country Waterways known as the BCN.
It was formed in 1968 and has been promoting the areas canal system for forty years. In the early days it fought campaigns against the closure of many canals, but now the emphasis is on restoration and promoting awareness.
The BCNS has its headquarters at the restored Pumphouse on the Titford Canal, in Oldbury. At 511 ft above sea level the Pumphouse is at the highest part of the BCN. Complete with moorings and full facilities the Pumphouse is a fine illustration of the aims and achievements of the Society.
We meet monthly at the Pumphouse for talks by a wide variety of speakers on canals and subjects of related interest. See the Meetings and Social Events page for details. A fair proportion of us are boaters, so we don't have meetings across the summer – too many of us are off on our boats.
In the summer and autumn there are boating events and rallies. See the Rallies page for information of those to come.
Our early rallies are the BCN Explorer Cruises and our annual Rally. This years are now history, and the detail of next years are yet to be sorted.
The Explorer Cruises are a relaxed group of boaters exploring the lesser used parts of the BCN in company – though aimed at those who are not familiar with the BCN, all are welcome. They are organised by Stuart and Marie Sherrat, who deservedly received the BCNS Presidents Award in 2014 for their sterling service in running this event in recent years.
This year our annual rally was at Titford Pumphouse. When the arrangements have been confirmed, next year's rally will be put on the site.
Our other early event is the Marathon Challenge. This is another "Explore the BCN" rally – but at the other extreme. How much of the BCN can you explore in 24 hours. Extra points are gained by cruising the more obscure parts of the BCN. Great fun, hard work, very competitive, but with the a real spirit of friendly competition. The winner is the boat who gets the most points, following Roy Kenn's complex scoring system (the more out of the way the canal, the smaller the crew, and the more miles and more locks all contribute to more points.) The ability to answer Roy's mind bending questions brings in more points.
The Bonfire and Fireworks Rally at the top of Smethwick locks close the our rally season.
We also supports many other events and rallies throughout the Midlands canal network and within the local community.
We keep our members are kept up to date with news and events around the region with our quarterly magazine "Boundary Post". (Named after the posts that once lined the edges of the BCN marking the canal company boundary.) We'll also sell Boundary Post to non-members at the many events attended by The BCNS.
The Society works closely with the Canal & River Trust to ensure the ongoing maintenance of the local system. The BCNS has C&RT recognised self supervising workparty status. We hold regular workparties throughout the year using the society's purpose built 38ft workboat Phoenix paired with open butty Crow. In September 2009, in recognition of its work, The BCNS was one of ten national recipients of British Waterways Volunteer Awards.
Since 2008 The BCNS, in partnership with Coombeswood Canal Trust (CCT), has operated the historic British Waterways workboat Atlas and butty Malus. Restoration and maintenance are ongoing, and we welcome anyone interested in historic boats to join us.
Why not join us and help us conserve this valuable labyrinth of canals and its heritage for the benefit of everyone. Follow this link for details and an application form.
The BCNS was established as a Registered Charity (charity number: 1091760) in 1968. In 2002 we reconstituted as a Company Limited by Guarantee (company number: 4306537). info @ bcnsociety.co.uk

text: Interesting little piece at Sociological Images that endeavors to provide a social explanation for the rise in Autism cases. The article makes the argument that Autism cases aren't actually increasing, but we as a society is simply getting better -and more aware- of noticing and diagnosing it. In particular, higher class families may be even more *aware* and likely to spot the signs and have it diagnosed, as well as spread that information through their networks. It's a theory, but an interesting one.


text: GamesBeat Two weeks, 12 dramas. The most controversial console generation yet? December 1, 2013 8:30 AM Dan Crawley 0 DualShock 4 rubber wearing out Above: Down to the plastic with just two weeks of useImage Credit: Reddit/Cayos While most gamers are falling in love with the new DualShock 4 controller (which we recently covered in our exclusive four-part series), some have reported problems with the rubber on the analog sticks. Specifically, the rubber covering of the left stick has been wearing away or splitting completely. While this problem was first noted just before launch via a Reddit post, it was largely dismissed as a one-off. Now that the PlayStation 4 has been in people's homes for a couple of weeks, though, it's clear this isn't just an isolated incident. The organized folks over at gaming forum NeoGAF have even started recording which batch numbers have the issue in the hope of seeing a pattern emerge. Nothing reported so far indicates that the problem controllers are from the same production run, so it could be more than just a faulty batch at blame. The Redditor who originally flagged the concern cites an email thread discussing the problem, which credits a Sony representative saying, "Tell people not to press so hard." This, of course, should not be taken as fact. Sony Computer Entertainment has yet to make an official comment on the issue. Xbox One microtransactions leave a bitter taste Above: Forza Motorsport 5Image Credit: Microsoft Remember the days when you just bought a game for $60 and played the heck out of it? If the Xbox One's launch lineup is anything to go by, those days are well and truly behind us. Ryse: Son of Rome, Crimson Dragon, Powerstar Golf, and Forza Motorsport 5 all have microtransactions built into them that either help boost performance or unlock additional items. Forza has seen the biggest backlash against this system as the game seems to make unlocking cars by skill alone into a Herculean task. Why grind the same old tracks for hours when you can drop some cash and unlock that shiny new set of wheels? The biggest letdown is for gamers who buy the Forza season pass, which drip-feeds you a selection of new cars you can't just jump in and drive. Despite dropping $50 on the pass (on top of your $60 game purchase), you can't actually access the cars until you buy them in the game through accumulating or buying tokens. The most expensive vehicle, Kimi Raikkonen's 2013 Lotus E21 F1 car, costs over $50 to unlock, and developer Turn 10 has now started to address concerns about these microtransactions. "Based on the numbers we've seen from our first week of Forza Motorsport 5, as well as feedback we heard directly from you, we're in the process of making some changes to the Forza Motorsport 5 economy," said Turn 10 community manager Brian Ekberg in a recent blog post. For some, though, the mere existence of such microtransactions in a full price retail game is enough to make them turn their backs. Above: A fan responds to the Forza 5 microtransactions in a GamesBeat commentImage Credit: GamesBeat Did Foxconn iterns really sabotage the PS4? On Nov. 15, a new member started a thread at IGN's gaming forum, claiming to know something about the hardware issues the PlayStation 4 was having. The member, known as "qbroid," posted a screenshot showing a comment from a Chinese forum. The comment reportedly came from a Chinese student who worked as an intern at electronics manufacturer Foxconn, which helped produce the PlayStation 4. Qbroid translated the post as saying: "Since Foxconn are not treating us well, we will not treat PS4 console well. The PS4 console we assemble can be turned on at best." Qbroid followed up this post with more alleged comments from students, including one that read, "I throw PS4 down every day, three together once." It's no secret that students worked at Foxconn this summer on a basic wage as part of a compulsory internship. Foxconn has also confirmed that these students were given night shifts and overtime in violation of its own policies. Whether these students felt so aggrieved as to deliberately sabotage their own production line, though, is far from clear. Kotaku examined the IGN comments a few days later, deciding that there was too little substance to take them at face value. The Chinese press, however, has been reporting on the PS4's hardware problems, and a number of high-traffic sites have mentioned the Chinese forum posts shared on IGN. This one sits firmly in the rumors category for now, but it's an interesting rumor nonetheless. View All 1 2 3 4 More information: Amazon Electronic Arts Inc.

Gov. Swarzenegger's Budget Handling is Horrible-$40,000,000.00
Why is the Governor Arnold Swarzenegger spending $40,000,000 on body guards?$25,000,000 more than the Gov before him? Gov. A. S. said he didn't want to get paid but obviously he wanted to use the budget for his personal interest. Now, too many offices are closed and jobs lost. Even Sup. Antonovich's office needs to be shaken up. When complaining about sincere problems regarding gov. employees, they dilly dally-over $50,000. was blown a few years ago by the water well employees harassing me (the neighbor) It's on record. Many gov. employees are too comfortable and think they are home when using the budget. I saw a small claims typist in LA walk in with filthy, fluffy slippers to work the cases that day. And, the judge was incompetent. Another real example. They should have been weeded out and the serious, integrity filled employees honored. The system is obviously destroyed by personal greed.

You omitted the great contribution of the Poles who created an copy of the enigma machine sight unseen.
The Pole presented the copy in a most secret gift to the British before Poland was overrun.
Without that gift the balance might have tipped in favor of the axis. Kcal 9 owe at least recognition of this act of courage. The Polish codebrakers fled through neutral countries or France before it was overrun and continued their work I Britain.
