FEAR for the future of Mary Valley will be put aside this weekend with the staging of the annual Mary Valley Festival at Kandanga Recreation Ground.
Giant puppets of the animals of the Mary River environs blending with a spectacular solar laser show, accompanied by awesome music, will be the highlight of this year's event, which gets under way at noon.
The puppeteers, musicians and lighting team have been working solidly for months now on the project called Sounds of Mary to bring us the best Mary River Festival so far.
But this is only part of the festival, which will also have storytelling, a movie tent showing environmental videos, a speaker's tent, environmental products, good music, good food, children's activities and plenty of local community spirit.

Obama Admin. to Supreme Court: Allow Warrantless Smartphone Searches

Administration is upset about Circuit Court ruling that prohibits warrantless smartphone searches
President Barack Obama's (D) Assistant Attorney General (AG), Mythili Raman, and the
U.S. Department of Justice
(DoJ) have filed
a petition
to the Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) to consider overriding a July decision by the
U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit
warrantless cell phone searches
were a violation of the Fourth Amendment. The 1st Circuit Court sets precedent for Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Puerto Rico, and Rhode Island.
The Obama administration has
oft made the argument
that the Fourth Amendment -- which protects a citizen's "houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures" --
is "inconvenient" for law enforcement
and should be pruned back to a much more limited form. In its argument in favor of
warrantless smartphone searches
, the President's staff argues that notebooks, calendars, and pagers have all been found in past SCOTUS or Circuit Court rulings to be searchable without warrant (not eligible for Fourth Amendment protections).
a post
on academic law blog "The Volokh Conspiracy",
George Washington University
law school professor
Orin Kerr
, a prominent social libertarian points out a major flaw in the Obama administration's argument.

He points out that the administration appears to have cherry-picked a case involving an older device (the case in question involved an classic "dumb" cell phone seized in a 2007 crack cocaine bust of a Mass. man). He says that asking the court to consider a case with outdated information may be an attempt to lead them to an inaccurate conclusion. He writes:
Given that the argument for treating cell phones differently from physical items hinges on the storage capacity and services available through smartphones, I think it would be very helpful for the Court to take a case involving a smartphone instead of a more primitive model. In recent years,
smartphones quickly have become ubiquitous
: About 35% of Americans owned one by May 2011, 46% owned one by February 2012, and 56% owned one by May 2013. (In case you're wondering, 91% of Americans have cellphones, so about 61% of cell phones owned as of May 2013 are smart phones.) Reviewing a case with an earlier model phone would lead to a decision with facts that are atypical now and are getting more outdated every passing month.
He argues that it would be better for the SCOTUS to examine a separate case that law professor
Stanford Univ.
Jeff Fisher
has asked
the SCOTUS to consider --
Riley v. California
. That case involved a 2009 search of a customer's Samsung Electronics Comp., Ltd (
Instinct M800
, an early smartphone. The case involved officers searching through a suspected gang member's smartphone for videos, pictures, and address book -- all without getting a warrant for the search, a key step of Fourth Amendment due process that prevents abuse.
The California Court of Appeal, Fourth District
declined to hear the
case, leaving SCOTUS as a potential route for a further appeal.

All quotes tagged Old Year
(6 quotes found)
"The Old Year has gone. Let the dead past bury its own dead. The New Year has taken possession of the clock of time. All hail the duties and possibilities of the coming twelve months!"
Contributed by: Randi
"My pipe is out, my glass is dry; My fire is almost ashes too; But once again, before you go, And I prepare to meet the New : Old Year! a parting word that's true, For we've been comrades, you and I - I thank God for each day of you; There! bless yo"
"A bird sang sweet and strong
In the top of the highest tree,
He said, "I pour out my heart in song
For the summer that soon shall be."
But deep in the shady wood,
Another bird sang, "I pour
My heart on the solemn solitude
For the springs that return no more.""
""Old times" never come back and I suppose it's just as well. What comes back is a new morning every day in the year, and that's better."

Had a bit of time on my hands so I replaced the second, less bad side, push rod seals. Nice. No more oil on the sides and bottom of the pan.
While I was at it noticed the left cylinder spark plug was black. Not the case on the right plug. Black is too rich - or so I think. After putting everything back, adjusting the valves a few times to get them "singing to me" and it was running nicely. So I pulled out my home made carb vacum sensor and worked on the balance, particularly in terms of rich/lean.
With the carbs sucking equally, I dropped the left side down until it "bogged" then back it off a bit. Not too rich, not too lean. But I just noticed it's still smoking!
Question. Other causes for smoking? could it possibly be rings or something.
76 R90/6 40,000 miles only. Doesn't burn oil. Usually sits on the center stand.
thanks guys.

Discussion in 'Odds & Ends' started by Say Chi Sin Lo, Oct 30, 2012.
No matter. Grizz advance with an 88-84 victory.
Grizzlies are in the West Finals!
Goodness! Prince dunked on the entire OKC team!
Every big man (except for Marc Gasol) needs to watch how the TNT guys broke down Zach Randolph's "old man game".
Spurs vs Heat would be one to watch.
Memphis is just too dull of a team to watch.
Did you just say Memphis is dull? Compared to who, and how so?
Much less drama in the conference semis...hope that changes in the next round. Grizzlies should cut an extra playoff share to the Rockets' Beverley for his crossbody block on Thunder's Westbrook...OKC got way too one-dimensional after his injury.
That's what happens when you're a two man show instead of being a real team. Even when one of the Heat's big 3 goes down, they have guys that can step up and help them still win.
Miami would still make the finals if Wade or Bosh got hurt. Maybe not if LeBron since he's such a beast. But OKC made a big mistake when they gave up on Harden and kept that slug Kendrick Perkins instead.
so the thinking in OKC was that they could've kept harden for one more year but he would've left after that one year and OKC would've gotten absolutely nothing for him. he already turned down one extension offer. so he was only staying for max money or close to max money.
so they got martin and i think a draft pick too. meh. the funny thing is if westbrook doesn't go down -- i think OKC management looks like the smartest guys in the world.
instead all the westbrook haters (myself included) look at him a little differently now. maybe A LOT better than we ever gave him credit for. watching durant alone has been like watching lebron in cleveland - so much talent, so little support.
Memphis just played bigger and better. Harden wouldn't have made a difference since you're sacrificing offense for interior defense. And Kevin Durant shooting about 25 percent doesn't help either. Tayshaun, Tony "Smith", Randolph, and Gasol just completely neutralized him.
They resigned Perkins a few years ago, which left them without the cap t room to keep harden. Who'd you rather have? The answer is obvious.
they should've amnestied perk and kept the big three (actually big 4 with ibaka) for another year or two. even if they paid some luxury tax. they are spending $12+ mil a year for perkins for 2 pts a game and 3 boards these playoffs.
The thing with Harden, is that they dont make the Finals last year without him. He presents a skill set maybe 5 people in the league have. The ability to shoot threes and pentrate and finish att he rim. You let him walk for 1 year of Kevin Martin, Jeremy Lamb, and a mid Rd pick.
They were a one dimensinal team with Westrbook and Durant. Harden gave them another element and gave the team different options. I really dont now if they get by memphis even with Westbrook.
OKC should have stood pat on Harden made another run with those three saw what they had and adjust accordingly.
If Harden steppud and became so good then at that point they could have pulled off a sign and trade.
The Perk Amnesty could have happened after this year to clear space to keep Harden if they wanted to.
They took a gamble that Ibaka would step up and fill some offensive void. but he is the same player regardless.
"Smith?" Just Turrible
How Harrison Barnes escaped that fall without a concussion is beyond me.
The kid's got heart though.
*Update* Harrison Barnes isn't returning after playing the 3rd quarter, he has headaches. I bet the noise at Oracle Arena isn't helping either.
And that probably mean he won't be available if the Warriors get a Game 7, such a shame.
Have we got a GREAT Western Conference Finals for you?! "Boring" Spurs vs. "Boring" Grizzlies!
A tremendous season for the Golden State Warriors. They more than lived up to expectations and will be a playoff threat for years to come. Stephen Curry blossomed into a superstar before our eyes.
Ok, Its not boring anymore cause I'm on the Memphis bandwagon. :twisted:
I think we can say the same to a certain extend for Klay Thompson and Harrison Barnes.
I'm hoping David Lee's hip flexor tear won't be a lingering issue, because he didn't have the hops.
+1 Barnes really performed well, especially relative to his regular season.
If these guys can play as well during the next regular season as they did during these playoffs, they have a real chance for 60 wins, which means spending more time at home and a real chance for a title.
The TNT guys keep saying GS needs another good big man though, and they may be right.
Pretty much everyone has been saying that. Bogut needs to take more shots and start building his offensive confidence and consistency. And David Lee, well that was just bad luck, because before he tore his hip flexor, the dude was a double double machine. But I give him a ton of credit for playing on one leg.
Great series! But Indiana had PAYBACK on their minds. Let the Heat squeak by last year after punching them in the mouth to take a 2-0 lead. This is gonna be a good ole-fashioned throw-down!
Can the league's most dominant interior defense stop the Chosen One? Or are the Heat destined for Finals glory again?
Yeah I'm expecting a Bulls/Heat sort of series but with more healthy bodies. I want to see some 'bows. :twisted:
Lakers fan here. Wondering what sort of announcement Kobe is talking about...
Magic Johnson (and Im a LA fan) sometimes sprouts a lot of BS... he said the Warriors needed a low post scorer next season. When David Lee (20/10 guy, all star) is on that team. Also said GS is strictly a jump shooting team. wow.
He is right. The Warriors got killed inside.
Lee is fine, but I think they need a more physical C. Also, Lee played hurt as well and only averaged 5 and 5 for the playoffs.
The Spurs simply adjusted by clamping down on the shooters on the 3 point line, since the Warriors had no inside out game.
He said they needed sign one over the summer! When Bogut and Lee would be healthy!
Even when he wasn't 100%, Bogut was very physical and outplayed Tim Duncan at times on the glass.
Bogut hasn't proven to be a legit low-post threat since returning. So if he isn't going to be an offensive threat, then yeah Warriors need another big who is a threat. In that series, he was nothing more than a more mobile version of Biedrins and all he did was clog up the middle for rebounds.
I was disappointed with Bogut because if your 20/10 guy is out, you need to step up and fill that void.
Outplayed Tim Duncan? Please...
Duncan was great again yesterday, regardless of age, his performances thist post season have been huge.
Do you think the Spurs could beat the Heat, if thats the finals? The Heat do struggle at times against dominant big men, Parker always finds a way to get it done, the defence of Leonard on James could be a factor.
Honestly, I think either Spurs or the Grizzlies will have a GREAT chance against the Heat.
Guards all day long, Parker and Ginobili will pick them apart because they'll get to the paint. And LeBron can only guard one of them at a time. D-Wade can't stay with them, not with that bad knee. Mario Chalmer and the rest of Heat's guards don't stay with anyone, period. The Spurs may not necessarily kill the Heat in the paint, Duncan-Bosh is a wash, but they have enough big guys to throw at Bosh. The Spurs will most likely out-rebound the Heat too with their smaller lineup.
More or less the same story with Spurs. They have better guard play. Also, they can throw top defenders Tony Allen and Tayshaun Prince at D-Wade and LeBron. In the paint, the Grizzlies should absolutely kill them with Randolph and Marc Gasol. Not to mention Heat's inability to rebound because of the small line up.
The common theme here is that, the Heat will get out-rebounded and sorely out-played at the guard positions. Both teams are bigger and can definitely neutralize any post threats the Heat can come up with.
They have LeBron James, and that's scary. I'm pretty sure you can plug LeBron James with just about any team and they'll get to the Finals. Even the Bobcats.
Let's not count out the Pacers, their top notch defense and balanced offensive threats will be a handful for anyone. I wouldn't be surprised if the Pacers beat the Heat in 6 or 7 games.
Your right, the Pacers gave the Heat a scare last season and I think they have improved since then. Hibbert showed some good form against the Knicks, West and Hansbrough is a pretty deep set of bigs aswell.
The huge thing for the Heat in last years finals was their 3 point shooting, Battier and Miller hardly seemed to miss. I think Battier and Allen were around 20% against the Bulls, if that continues they could struggle against all 3 teams left. As you said, James on his own will win games, but with Wade struggling with his injury and them being cold from 3 point range, it's a big ask.
Bogut AND Lee I think is a bad Combo. They need a guy next to Lee who plays bigger. Bogut could get healthier, but I am not sure it matters. The main issue is Beidrins. He is very expensive and is horrible. They wont be able to move him and free up space for a 3rd big who would do a better job for them in a 3 man frontcourt rotation.
If you are going to shoot J's, you have to have interior offense to keep a D honest. I know that all too well. With Dwight, we destroyed any team that could not guard him 1 on 1. But any team that could beat us since it was easy for them to clamp down on the shooters.
I think the Pacers can take this series to 6 or 7 games. Not sure if anyone can beat the Heat. What they will probably do is the carmelo strategy, where they will give lebron his points, and try and shut down everyone else. Basically force lebron to win the series.
Hibbert is going to need to dominate inside on offense. The Pacers could have swept the Knicks if Hibbert had a better series, but Chandler is a solid defender. The Heat should not have anyone who can deal with Hibbert underneath.
Biedrins may be the most overpaid player in the history of the NBA.
For once Otis Smith is totally unaccountable for rash overpayment!
Dwight Howard is talking stupid again:
Yeah, like D'Antoni would listen to him when there is a 5x champ, and a 2x MVP with years of relationship sitting on the bench.
Stop talking Dwight, bring your problems to Houston like reported and maybe Kevin McHale can work on your post game.
EDIT: So maybe Kevin McHale will resign because of your BS and go back to the TNT crew. He was awesome on TV.
Dwight always passing the blame to someone else. He does it on the court, off the court, in divorce court..etc.
Yeah, he became the Real Big Baby Maker bcoz of defective Magnums!
Speaking of D12, tonight is our latest chance to snatch the overall #1 draft slot. Pat Williams is doing the honors again, so our chances are even better than 25%!
Cleveland Cadavers are #3???? Is this rigged or what?
Yes Yes Yes!!!
Del Negro is out.
Is it possible for the Clippers to snatch D'Antoni from the Lakers?
That would make this Laker fan very happy.
I think DLee and AndrewBogut are going to be fine together. It might free up Lee to go 20 and 8, while Bogut seems happy with 12 and 12.
Bogut this season is without his right hand. And a sorta gimpy leg. He's averaged 16 pts his career, so he can score from the low post. Obviously, he's no long distance shooter.
Both Lee and Bogut, when healthy, can score from inside the paint. Both pass well.
That should free up some 3 point room for the skinny guys.
I agree, but he hasn't shown such form since those injuries. I'll wait and see.
Cavs will be making more trips to the lottery and it's the 5th time they got the #1 overall pick in their history.
Lol. Curious as to who the Cavs will choose to play along the likes of the hugely talented Kyrie Irving. Ben McLemore? Nerlens Noel?
I'm sorry but what did he do wrong again? They had a flawed roster that can only play fast, or they all stand around and watch CP3 go 1on5.
So should they keep Griffin or trade him to Boston for KG and Pierce?
I am very happy with #2. I want #1 next year and I want Wiggins.
I could see us taking Tom's guy - Ben Mac, at #2, or Otto Porter, but I suspect he may go #1.
Some fans see us reaching for Burke, but I am not sure he is talented enough to justify that.
Horrible year to have a really high pick in the draft.
LeBron James CLOSES the show like a champ!
OH yes.

How RGGI is Growing Renewable Energy and Reducing GHGs
A new report demonstrates that emissions markets can increase renewable energy, decrease greenhouse gases (GHGs) and grow the economy. The Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative (RGGI) is the first U.S. market-based regulatory program designed to reduce GHGs. RGGI is a cooperative effort among the states of Connecticut, Delaware, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Rhode Island, and Vermont to cap and reduce the power sector's CO2 emissions. There are roughly 160 power plants covered by RGGI. Under the program, states sell emission allowances through auctions and invest the proceeds in consumer benefits including energy efficiency, renewable energy, and other clean energy technologies. In addition to spurring clean tech innovation and reducing GHGs, RGGI is creating green jobs.
Proposed amendments to RGGI have been incorporated in an Updated Model Rule which was released on February 7, 2013. Although New Jersey Gov Chris Christie pulled out of the program nearly two years ago, the nine remaining states have all agreed to make even deeper cuts to power plant carbon emissions, leading to a 20 percent reduction over the next decade.
According to a report released on March 26th 2013, RGGI has increased renewable energy, lowered GHGs and grown the economy. Between 2000 and 2010, the economies of the ten Northeast states grew twice as fast per capita as other states, while per capita carbon dioxide emissions declined 25 percent faster.
For further information see RGGI.

A photo would be very useful! Obviously you can't upload a photo the size of a house brick!
No, seriously, there are two ways to get your photo uploaded. If you click on the camera icon in the toolbar over the message you can insert a photo into the message (but it will be reduced to 450 x 600 and will be rejected if it has more than 10 Mbyte) or you can attach the photo (in which case the Mbyte limit is 50). BTW, this facility may be dependent on your browser. I have given up using MS Internet Explorer as it doesn't allow the insertion of a photo with the camera icon and if you've experienced that problem try a different browser. Also, as I write this reply I can't see an option to attach a photo. However, it magically appears when I switch to the advanced editor!

Equine Prepurchase Exams
A prepurchase exam helps you evaluate a horse's health and soundness before buying.
- Slideshow
- Aug 13, 2014
- Basic
- Topics:
Choose the Right Veterinarian
The prepurchase veterinarian works for and is paid by the buyer and should be impartial and have no financial stake in the sale. The buyer owns the rights to the obtained information, including radiographic images (X rays) and test results.

Overall Health
A basic prepurchase exam should include a thorough medical and performance history, as well as a complete full physical evaluation of the horse.
Photo: Kevin Thompson/The Horse
Checking for Colic Scars
During the initial physical exam, the veterinarian will look for clues to the horse's health, such as any scars from past colic surgeries.
Photo: Kevin Thompson/The Horse
Dental and Oral Cavity Exam
The veterinarian should check the horse's mouth for any issues or dental abnormalities. These can include evidence of tongue or cheek injury or missing or damaged teeth. This will also give your veterinarian a chance to verify the horse's age.
Photo: Kevin Thompson/The Horse
Eye Exam
The veterinarian will examine the horse's eyes for superficial lesions on the cornea, anterior chamber (the space between the cornea and the iris), and lens.
Photo: Kevin Thompson/The Horse
Respiratory Exam
The veterinarian should examine the horse's lungs and respiration. A rebreathing exam involves placing a large plastic garbage bag over the horse's nose. As the horse breaths in expired carbon dioxide, his brain signals him to take deeper and slower breaths, making it easier for the veterinarian to hear the lung sounds.
Photo: Kevin Thompson/The Horse
Lameness Exam
In addition to a general physical exam, most veterinarians recommend performing a lameness exam, especially if the horse is an athlete. The veterinarian will observe the horse moving in circles of varying size and on different surfaces (hard vs. deep) to check for unsoundness.
Photo: Kevin Thompson/The Horse
Flexion Test
Here the veterinarian flexes the horse's hocks. After a short period of holding the joint in flexion, the veterinarian will have the handler trot the horse away. Then, the veterinarian observes for any changes in movement that could indicate discomfort.
Photo: Kevin Thompson/The Horse
Hoof Testers
Hoof testers add pressure to the foot's sole and can indicate if the horse has any hoof discomfort or pain.
Photo: Kevin Thompson/The Horse
Radiographs (X rays) are a common part of many prepurchase exams. Your veterinarian will advise you on which joints or structures might need X rays. X rays can give insight into problems or abnormalities of bone, cartilage, and soft tissue.
Photo: Kevin Thompson/The Horse
Blood Test and Coggins
Your veterinarian might also run blood tests. Proof of a negative Coggins test for equine infectious anemia (EIA) is required by law for any horse moving from state to state (and by most equine event organizers). A complete blood count (CBC) and serum chemistry can give some indication of the horse's overall health. Blood can also be used to test for anti-inflammatory drugs, such as phenylbutazone and flunixin meglumine.

I am not speechless, but I am surprised at the Editors "No" on Prop 37. My first thought was "follow the money" as this recommendation and reasoning is simply wrong. An industry proud of their product Labels It as a selling point... organic, fair-trade, grass fed, free-range, natural. The resistance of the industry regarding proper labeling is suspect at best and we, here in California, have the power through the voting booth to demand knowing what foods we are buying and ingesting. Neither our Congress nor our FDA, which is run by a former Monsanto executive, is going to do anything about this. Californians have always led the way in making course corrections for the environment, for food sourcing, for recycling, etcetera.
We are here, now, voting YES on Prop 37 because it is the honorable action to take for our country.

Dear Editor,
I wish to commend your endorsement of Ken Dauber and Melissa Baten Caswell for the PAUSD board, and for not endorsing Camille Townsend for a third term (I have not met or heard Heidi Emberling.) Until recently, I was one of the silent majority of parents who "outsourced" any decision making to the board and the PAUSD, and was content knowing that my children go to some of the best schools in California. Recently, however, thanks to We Can Do Better Palo Alto, I learned about the stark differences in the advising models between Gunn (where I have a child) and Paly. As someone who served as a resident fellow at Stanford some years ago (the "adult" in an undergrad dorm), I recognize the importance of safety nets and a strong advising system. I have also tried to educate myself more on the topic, and it seems clear to me that the bulk of research suggests that Paly's system is indeed the better of the two. What I found more disturbing is that the survey commissioned by PAUSD had in its data sufficient evidence o this effect, but the analysis done was below par, and it was Ken Dauber's careful and thoughtful quantitative analysis that shed much light on the pronounced differences between the systems. I then chose to attend three PAUSD board meetings, expressing my opinions on the matter in two of them, and I was underwhelmed by the leadership of Camille Townsend. I am sure that Mr. Walter Hayes, whose Letter to the Editor commended her collegiality, believes that this trait is key to success. I, however, would like a board that addresses the real problems and is able to both question the status quo and have the assets needed to offer positive change where needed. I believe that proven critical thinking and analytical skills, which help shed light on the issues that need improvement, are what is really needed at this point. Ken Dauber possesses these skills (and from my attendance at the board meetings I believe that Melissa Baten Caswell does too.) Also, from my own interactions with Ken Dauber, I can only attest to his respectful attitude and engaging demeanor. Mr. Hayes suggested doubted whether "cooperation among board members would be maintained if he replaced Townsend." I have no doubt that cooperation would not only be maintained, but that we would have a board that would be able to offer guidance and insights that have been lacking in recent years.

Thank you Walter for your thoughtful letter.
The three strongest candidates have shown they can represent the students, parents and teachers whilst moving the district forward. They have engaged with the community to make this one of the best school districts in California. Their endless support and volunteering in schools over the last decade have shown their commitment and understanding of the problems we face.
Hopefully all will recognize the validity of your analysis and vote accordingly.

Maps and
even printouts of Google Maps directions became obsolete
when affordable global positioning systems (GPS) hit the market. But users in
the state of Washington are now questioning these devices after being led off
bridges and into unknown territories that are nowhere near their desired
According to the Washington State Department of Transportation, 623 collisions
occurred within the state from 2006 to 2010 due to GPS units/computers. Two of these collisions
were fatal.
Washington has had many GPS-related issues in the recent past. For
instance, three women from Mexico used a GPS system to navigate their way to an
Embassy Suites in Bellevue's Eastgate area. They were in town for a Costco
convention, and when driving back to the Embassy Suites in their Mercedes SUV
around midnight, they turned onto Interstate 90 West instead of East, and made
a turn off Bellevue Way Southeast. They were then led down the Sweyolocken boat
ramp into Mercer Slough. The vehicle sank, but the passengers got away safely
and slightly drenched.
Another user led astray was Paul Unwin, an avid GPS user from Seattle. When
traveling to a stargazing party in a desert outside Tucson, Arizona, the GPS
led him 10 to 15 miles down a strange and rough road with cacti lying across
the path.
"I thought, 'Let's punch it into the GPS and it'll take us there,'"
said Unwin. "It reminds me that you can't always trust what
the GPS is telling you, and if you're unsure of the area, take a little
extra bit of caution."
While a GPS system can be blamed for certain mishaps, there are other occasions
where the driver is too busy looking at the system instead of paying attention
to the road. For instance, a charter bus driver crashed into a bridge in
Seattle's Washington Park Arboretum while using a GPS in April 2008. The bus
driver failed to see the flashing yellow lights and the signs indicating the
low bridge down the road, and 20 students from the Garfield High School softball
team were hospitalized.
Carly Baltes of Garmin International further expressed driver responsibility,
saying that GPS units cannot be blamed. She also pointed out that manuals tell
drivers not to plug new coordinates in while driving, which could be a fatal
"GPS devices provide route suggestions," said Baltes. "They do
not cause drivers to make driving decisions."

Beyoncé was one of the MVPs on Sunday night (April 30) at Los Angeles' Staples Center. She and husband Jay Z sat courtside where the L.A. Clippers battled the Utah Jazz in the NBA Playoffs. And the singer's pricey Gucci bag received almost as much attention as the game.

A very pregnant Beyoncé held the beautiful $1,790 bag at her feet throughout most of the night. The backpack, which has the "Modern Future" slogan emblazoned in black print, is one of the more recent items in the Gucci collection currently available for pre-order.
The expensive Gucci item wasn't the only thing on display, though. At one point, cameras caught Jay Z lovingly placing his hand on her expanding stomach. See the photo here:

New York is always a wonderful town in the summer. This week we cut the ribbon on the newest section of Brooklyn Bridge Park at Pier 6. Last week, we opened 13 miles of public beaches, providing a great seaside escape for millions of New Yorkers and visitors. But even if you're not a beach person, there are plenty of ways to have fun in the city, without spending a dime.
Last year, I asked City agencies to develop a huge range of free and lowcost activities in every borough. And now we're doing it again. It doesn't matter where you live or what you're interested in, there's something fun for you and your family to do this summer – for free.
For instance, why not take the free ferries to Governors Island, which are starting up this weekend? And once you're there, check out Encounters: the free island-wide sculpture exhibition that opened yesterday and will be on display all summer.
If you'd like to see some sights that are off the beaten path, I invite you to participate in 'Key to the City,' an interactive public art exhibit that opened last week.
This month I will not be the only one with the power to give out a Key to the City; everyone will have the authority to do it. I invite you to come to the special kiosk in Times Square where you'll be able to award a key to a friend, a colleague, even a complete stranger. These keys unlock special places across the city: A secret door on the fifth floor of the Brooklyn Museum of Art, for instance; a hidden room at the Louis Armstrong House in Queens; even a bedroom closet in Gracie Mansion. This fantastic project is coming to us thanks to Creative Time, which has a great tradition of putting on public art around the city.
If you're a music lover, this is going to be a particularly great season for you. Central Park Summer Stage is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year with over 100 free concerts, dance, and theater performances throughout the city: R& B, classical, jazz — you name it! And don't forget about the return of Make Music New York on June 21st. On that day, more than 800 concerts and musical events will take place in parks, on streets, and in other venues throughout the five boroughs. Governors Island will be transformed again into 'Punk Island,' with more than 100 bands pounding out 12 full hours of punk music. The office workers of Midtown will be having their own 'battle of the bands' in Bryant Park, and jazz musicians will revive the New Orleans "Second Line" tradition with a jazz parade from Soho to Harlem.
Or maybe you or your kids want to learn a new skill this summer. Well, you're in luck. In conjunction with the City Parks Foundation, we offer free programs in everything from ropes courses in Alley Pond Park in Queens to free yoga classes in some of our recreation centers.
Just because the weather is warming up doesn't mean you can't spend time inside, too. So why not come out for the Museum Mile Festival this Tuesday, June 8th. All nine museums on Fifth Avenue – from the Met to El Museo Del Barrio – will be free to the public from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m.
The possibilities to have fun without spending a dime are almost endless. In fact, we've put together a calendar of hundreds of free events and activities happening over the next few months – which you can see by visiting nyc.gov. You can also tune in to NYC Life Channel 25 and watch NYC 4 Free, a new weekly show that highlights upcoming free events around the city.

I was looking at the video of the father earlier and you can see from his body language that he had no idea what was going on. Sadly he is defending these (unts out of love, but in the comming weeks he will be left to deal with the fallout of their dispicable plans.
I believe in the rule of innocent untill proven guilty. Reading through this posts early pages there were pictures of innocent people being bandied about as THE Terrorists. In these hard moments its easy to go on a witch hunt but thats what the terrorists want, fear and confusion. Let the FBI and Police do their jobs and we will know the full story very soon.
Father "They were framed".
Currently there are two guilty people. Thankfully one is dead and the other is running out of corner space. Then the FBI, Homeland Security and eventually the CIA can go after the real planners of the attack.
You are not alone in understanding how it feels to lose innocents.
I lived through 13 years of the IRA bombing my country followed by the London attacks.
My thoughts go out to everyone involved in this horrendous situation.
Men live lies that their wives should but don't catch on to regularly. It's easy to say in hindsight, she should have known... but when you love someone, you don't really look for signs if they are part of a dormant terrorist cell, or whatever.
She needs to be questioned, no doubt, but I'd bet she's completely in the dark. The both of these guys look 100% guilty, and it looks like they've spent 10+ years in this country putting up a "look American" front, only to be activated in some way to take action.
Look at the kids twitter, his posts are grossly cliche of a 19 year old screw up, placing value on money, drugs, hoes... but its a charade, he very obviously muslim. So it's part of the act to blend in... the cryptic tweets where he mentions bombs, explosions, taking action, 9/11, alarms, clocks, the marathon, and suicide, those are the posts that reveal more of what the younger brother was about.
Man, I just stumbled upon an Indian message board where they were discussing the bombers.
They make us look like amateurs when we argue. The Hindis were slamming the Pakis and Islam and man were they brutal. Those Indians hate and I mean hate Islam and they don't hold back. (lol)
Am i the only one who got even more confused by the last press conference. Things dont add up.
I can only guess this dude is dead somewhere, stowed away on a trip out of town somehow, or in a safe house.
No explanation for how that many shots went off last night, and this guy drove right away from them and then disappeared into thin air... not with this many resources here.

Quintessential Albuquerque: Our weekly Instagram photo contest winner
Instagram is no longer the sovereign province of "the hipster." Your mom and grandma are probably there too, posting Rise-filtered snaps of their latest programming manual or regional cookbook. We dig Instagram because an inclusive ethos motivates our social media efforts. Put simply, we love seeing the world through your eyes.
So every week we reward one passionate Alibi reader-
Last week's theme was Quintessential Albuquerque (#alibiburque / @weeklalibi), and the winner is Instagram user @andreamichellelove29. Her ristra photo captures the earthy effulgence of two of New Mexico's core elements, red chile and sunshine. Please email firstname.lastname@example.com for deets on retrieving your prize package of $10 Alibi Bucks and an extra something or two (CDs, books and/or promotional schwag).
8-bit garage
Sometimes, people take the liberty of exciting every old-school gamer by muralizing their garage entrance. I am completely and totally in support of this and, needless to say, driving by this Pac-Man mural every day keeps me pretty entertained. Keep an eye out for street art. Finding little gems like this make driving to work seem far less mundane, and may even keep that third-cup-of-coffee craving at bay. ... for a while longer.
Editor's note: Enjoy the Nuevo Mexicano chiptune banjo-pop of Bud Melvin below.
Inking semicolons;
Or on suicide awareness
In the words of poet Miguel Hernández, "If it weren't for… I don't know what/ my heart would write one last note…/ and I'd say to the world, you stay here." [Editor's note: He probably wrote this in Spanish.] He went on to survive the Spanish Civil War and imprisonment by a fascist government, and he never gave in to the life's darker pull; he held fast to hope in the face of heartbreak.
Today in Albuquerque, people will take on a symbol of hope and permanence that will never wash off. At King's Kreation tattoo shop, an estimated 150 people will partake in Albuquerque's first-ever semicolon event; it's a project aimed at advocating against suicide by tattooing a semicolon somewhere on the body.
Why a semicolon? It's an enigmatic punctuation mark, and it means a series of commas, a verbal pause—greater than a comma—approaching the pause after a period. It also denotes conjoined, related ideas. Poets are fond of semicolons because they allow for the splicing of childbirth with sunrise in a single thought. "I never thought that I would get a tattoo that couldn't be covered by a shirt. Then this project came along. The metaphor is beautiful," says event organizer Jonathan Cottrell. "I've been a grammar geek for my entire life, and to use punctuation symbolically is something I have just never thought of."
I think a semicolon tattoo is brilliant symbol of solidarity. A suicidal person needs breathing room, but they also need to talk; it's a way to work the emotional slivers out. The best thing you can do for a suicidal loved one is to listen to them. Tattoos are permanent, sans lazer; so even if there's a long, sad pause, there is no separation.
The (;) tattoo costs just $20 plus tax at King's Kreation (117 Seventh Street NW); don't forget to tip your artist. Half the event proceeds will be donated to Agora Crisis Center.
Art auction for Japan tomorrow
Across the Pacific Ocean, Japanese coastal towns are still in need of volunteers and donations as they struggle with the aftermath of March's earthquake and resulting tsunami.
Sunday's fine art auction "Hands Together for Japan" at the Albuquerque Museum of Art and History refocuses attention on ongoing relief efforts. Decorating your home has never been so karma-positive:
Albuquerque Museum (2000 Mountain NW)
Sunday, July 10
6 p.m to 9:30 p.m.
Five aid organizations put the event together. It features work from various Southwest artists including Anthony Abbate from Beals & Abbate Fine Art in Santa Fe.
Pieces for sale include pottery, oil paintings and prints that represent the culture of the Southwest and Native American traditions.
All proceeds go to Ananda Marga Universal Relief Team, an organization that provides aid around the world. The team's efforts in Japan focus on restoring the homes and lives of the displaced elderly and affected communities. It also offers counseling and activities to help alleviate mental trauma after the disaster.

An art show in the north valley this weekend
Janie Gonzales, of Vida Art Connections, is throwing Zimmer, an art exhibition, at her Rio Grande Estates home Saturday, Oct. 9 and Sunday, Oct. 10 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. and by appointment after that.
Gonzales said the invitational art exhibition is in honor of Lis Zimmer, a former Albuquerque resident and community activist, who died this spring from breast cancer. A percentage of proceeds from this event will be donated to the New Mexico Cancer Center.
Vida Art Connections, formerly known as Vida Art Exhibitions tries to place high quality fine art in non-traditional venues for the mutual benefit of the viewer, the hosting organization, and the artists involved, according to Gonzales.
Gonzales set the event up to coincide with the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta.
Marian Berg, Travis Bruce Black, Susan Brown, Magda Rea Burger, Anna Carillo, Kim Eagle, Tina Garcia, Estevan Gonzales, Janie Perry Gonzales, Sydney Johnson, Linda Laitner, Margie Lucena, Cecelia McRoberts, Norma Mitnick, Andrea Ponzini, Holly Roberts, Todd Tibbals, Bob Wilson and Teal Wilson are participating at the event.

Guerilla Art Show
This weekend only at the Trillion Art Space
Several artists from all over New Mexico are showing graffiti-inspired street art work at the Trillion Art Space, 510 2nd NW.
Artists are making screen prints. There is a printing shop set up in back with locally made t-shirts for sale. Paintings made with the tools of traditional graffiti (latex paint sticks, spray paint, etc.) are hanging on the walls. The show features paintings of Ronald Reagan, creepy little mythical creatures, abstracts and even some painted LPs. There is a definite hip hop influence to much of it. Artists were making a large variety of silk screen prints, everything from Yoda to pueblo-inspired pieces, on site Friday.
Trillion has a factory sort of vibe, and it's always fun to watch art getting made. You can stand right next to the press and watch the silk screening process. It's festive.
The show is being taken down on Monday but is open Saturday and Sunday from noon to about 10 p.m. The event seemed spontaneous and possessed a marked transient quality like much of the street art I've seen lately. It pops up it one place and then disappears. See it before it's gone.
Fighting graffiti with beauty in Bangalore!
Fresh off the awesome Exit Through the Gift Shop, which I finally got around to last night, I've got street art on the brain.
First, let me just expound, briefly, on the sweetness of this movie. It was totally sweet. And this comes from someone who is tired of hearing about Shepard Fairey and hopes the AP takes him down for lying about which Obama image he culture jammed. So, when I saw Fairey come on the screen, I let out a tiny groan. But it was cool, because he turned out to be less of a tool than I thought, but not rad enough to change my mind about the guy. The flick mostly revolves around Mr. Brainwash, who is clearly, at least in some aspect, made up. Anyway, read Devin D. O'Leary's review of the movie if you want more.
I wasn't even going to bring Exit up until I saw these fantastic murals that are coving Bangalore, India. From the Telegraph, "authorities say they plan to extend the scheme to cover virtually every city wall." They're sick of graffiti and are doing something about it. Check out the elephant on roller skates, he's my favorite.
So, the point is: Street art kicks-ass, if it's art and not just some nickname you made up for yourself. If you're sporting a spray can, do something beautiful, please.
Oh, and if anyone knows who did those killer rainbows downtown, tell them I'm looking for them. It's all on the down low, of course.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Sarah Palin says she won't speak at the Republican National Convention later this month in Tampa, Fla.
The 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee says she's excited to hear from this year's candidates.
Palin says in a statement that she supports Mitt Romney and his running mate, Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan, and will focus on grassroots efforts to help get the pair elected.
She says everything she said at the 2008 convention still holds true — including her prediction that President Obama would set out to fundamentally transform the country.
Palin didn't say whether she will attend the convention, where Romney will officially accept the Republican nomination for president.
Democrats will hold their convention in early September in Charlotte, N.C.

Hello, I'm currently in the process of putting together a contest for Web Designers & Developers.
What prizes would you realistically like to see here? These prizes are donated by companies in exchange for advertising and back links.
Because the contest is open to the world, it makes anything requiring shipping very difficult/expensive, so the prizes will likely be digital products and services.
Currently we have Wordpress themes, premium plugins, uptime monitoring, training videos and e-books.
We're looking into hosting, stock photos, icons, etc.
I'm asking you what prizes would interest you enough to enter daily. We would also like to think outside the box and include some prizes that are more fun, less work if possible.
What digital products/services do you currently pay for, or would pay for if you had the money to do so?
Also, if you own a company and are interested in exchanging prizes for advertising, that would also be great.
P.S. For those interested in the contest, it will be available mid-January at WebDevContest.com

(**I am sorry for the spelling mistake in the title**)
What's the syntax for initializing a global variable with a number in a data file?
I only know how to change the value of a variable from a data file using an ifstream variable and the >> operator. However I can't (or don't know how to) use the >> operator outside of the main function.
For instance, if the name of the data name is info.dat and it has only one number - 100 in it. How would you initialize a global variable, say it is called a, from info.dat, the data file?

I agree with you and Dave about the fragile inheritance problem (and wonder if adding hook methods [martinfowler.com] or migrating to a Class::Std [cpan.org]-based object model would solve some of these problems.
However, one of your suggestions makes a similarly unwarranted assumption, specifically:
if (UNIVERSAL::can($self->{gallery}, $name) {
What if I want to overload
can()? It's a method. Why shouldn't I be able to do that?
Yes, it's the great "Why in the world are you explicitly calling the parent implementation of a method on an instance of a known-derived class?" debate. Someday I'm going to write
UNIVERSAL::new and write code that calls that directly instead of the actual constructors just to show how stupid a debate it is.
can() is an object method. There's a default implementation in the
UNIVERSAL base class so that classes that don't need to define their own implementations can inherit it.
Classes for which the default implementation is unsuitable can override it with their own implementations -- and there are good reasons for doing so, such as if you have a proxying or delegation relationship you want to keep transparent, if you autogenerate methods you can't know at compile time and don't necessarily want to install th
It's a normal method, so treat it as you would handle any inherited method. If you use
SUPER, the implementation in the parent can change but the child can continue to work without change.
if ($scalar->can("explode")) {
because the program will die unless
$scalar is an object or package name. If it's an unblessed reference or a simple scalar, calling a method throws an exception, so one ends up writing:
if (ref $scalar and blessed($scalar) and $scalar->can("explode")) {
which is just a lot of typing, and we kn
but then I decided that it was fine to assume, for the example, that Scalar::Util was available, and that I was being overly snarky.if (ref $scalar and (not grep { ref $scalar } @std_types) and $scalar->can('explode')) {
Don't worry; Rafael applied my patch to perlfunc a little while ago.
able is a good idea. Plus we need an option for Scalar::Util:
use Scalar::Util export => "able", to_namespace => "Customer::ProjectName"
I can only see that argument as "Because someone else might write broken code, I'll deliberately write broken code."
If someone needs to override
can() and does it incorrectly, calling
UNIVERSAL::can() will give the wrong answer. You can't fix that without fixing their code. That's their bug.
If someone needs to override
can() and does it correctly, calling
UNIVERSAL::can() will still give the wrong answer. How is that possibly good? What possible legitimate reason is there for recommending it? This technique has no chance of working correctly in the face of an overridden
can()! That's your bug.
For the record, I'

CINCINNATI, OH -- AdvancePierre Foods is extending its popular Big AZ line with the launch of the BaconAddict Cheeseburger. The individually wrapped microwaveable sandwich features an oversized flame-broiled beef patty sandwiched between two layers of bacon-infused American cheese, topped with more bacon, on a hearth-baked yeast roll.
Tony Schroder, president of convenience channels at AdvancePierre Foods, said market research suggests that bacon is one of the most popular sandwich proteins and that many consumers prefer sandwiches with bacon. Additionally, a recent Technomic study found that more than 87% of consumers are willing to pay at least 50¢ to add bacon to a sandwich or burger, suggesting that bacon has a perceived added value.

About the Author
Many of my earliest memories contain books –— my parents reading me nursery rhymes before I could read them myself, flipping through the pages of Babar and Madeline books and listening to my parents read aloud from tThe Hardy Boys series. Later I devoured Judy Blume's children's books, the entire Anne of Green Gables series, fantasy novels like A Wrinkle in Time and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe, and still later contemporary teen novels about various social issues and romantic relationships (offerings by Richard Peck, Norma Fox Mazer, Norma Klein, and others).
I began writing my own stories at the age of seven. My third- grade teacher placed them on the shelf at the back of our classroom along with the published books so my classmates could read them, but it would be a long, long time before any book by me landed on the shelves again.
I never really stopped writing though. In high school, I used to pass on my short stories on to my favourite teacher, Mrs. Burns, to read and makes notes on. Between high school and university, I wrote a Choose Your Own Adventure book, which was promptly rejected by the publisher in New York who already had an entire team of people writing books for the series. In university, I penned several short stories (submitting a few, without any success, to literary journals) and did a bit of writing for the university newspaper. But somehow I sensed I wasn't ready to devote the necessary time to writing so after graduating from York University in Toronto with a Film Studies Degree in the early nineties I gave in to the pull I'd felt towards Ireland since first visiting a couple of years earlier. In Dublin, I worked in an odd assortment of places –— including a couple of bars, a lingerie shop, video store, and a division of the Irish post office –— but spent most of my time hanging out and enjoying the buzz.
It wasn't until I'd gotten married (to a lovely Irish guy) and was on the verge of moving back to Canada that I began writing my very first YA novel, inspired by the fantastic writing on TV show Party of Five. Several years (and books!) later Random House bought and released I Know It's Over. Since then I've written many more YA books, but I'm not really any wiser now, about where the stories come from, than when I was seven years old. When asked, sometimes I say that I feel like medium Allison Dubois, only channeling characters instead of spirits. One thing I'm certain of is that the initial inspiration to write sprang from my love of an elephant king in a three- piece suit, a spirited little French orphan girl, and a collection of nursery rhymes from The Little Mother Goose.

NFL Training camp season is always a time for irrational exuberance. Every team thinks it can win the Super Bowl, even though 31 of those teams will end being horribly wrong. And so, to preview the upcoming NFL season, which could be the most unpredictable ever, we now give you five reasons why your favorite team could win the Super Bowl. Today, it's the Tampa Bay Bucs.
1. Because I'm picking them to win the NFC, I tell you. And really, is there a better omen for a team's season than to be chosen by a random writer who doesn't really know anything, who picked the Titans to make the Super Bowl last season (oops!), and who is choosing the Bucs mostly so he can avoid picking the Packers or Eagles because everyone else will pick the Packers or Eagles? I THINK NOT! Seriously though, this is team is gonna be good. Allow me to explain why.
2. Josh Freeman. BOOSH. The astonishing progress the Bucs QB made in just his second season is impossible to ignore: Over 3,000 yards passing, over 60% of his throws completed (and unlike many QBs, Freeman didn't pad that stat by throwing dinky passes), and an eye-popping 25-to-6 TD-to-INT ratio. And stats don't even begin to tell you about what a joy it is to watch Freeman play. If it hadn't been for the incredible return of Mike Vick last season, Freeman would be a star already. Something tells me he isn't going to be content to linger in the background this time around. I'm banking on Freeman being there when I pick in the sixth round of my fantasy draft and if someone steals him from me they will TASTE THE THUNDER.
3. Hooray for the glacial slowness of the American judicial system! Cornerback Aqib Talib was arrested for felony assault charges in March. However, since it takes months and months and months just to process one single case through the American court system, Talib doesn't go on trial until March of 2012. NICE! Kudos to judicial lethargy! Now Bucs fans can relax and watch Talib play without having to worry about pesky matters such as whether or not he pulled a gun on someone. Phew!
4. The skill players have skillz. Virtually every skill position player for the Bucs is a sleeping giant. Wideout Arrelious Benn is coming back from a torn up knee and could become a consistent deep threat. Mike Williams was one of the best rookie wideouts in football last season, scoring 11 touchdowns. And RB LeGarrette Blount proved to be an absolute steal for the team last season when he broke out for 1,000 yards, almost all of which he gained in the final 11 games. He's not just a Bronco-puncher anymore! All of these guys are potential Pro Bowlers, and they'll have an improving Freeman getting them the ball. It's terrifying when a team has a core of offensive players that all mature at the exact same time.
5. Beware the quiet team. The Eagles are the kings of the offseason. But you should always beware of teams that make virtually no noise during the offseason, as the Steelers and Colts always seem to do. The Bucs clearly want to model themselves after those two organizations, using mostly homegrown players and making very few waves. They're so sneaky, LIKE PIRATE NINJAS! If they don't win the NFC, I'll give you three bucks. I'm just kidding. I would never do that. That would be idiotic. For real though, I like this team.

Hi everyone,
I'm not sure this is in the correct place but I have used code::blocks before but am trying to find a solution that will allow me to write c++, ruby, python, java (being new to all of these) and also continue my web design i.e. html5/css.
I wanted to find ONE multi-purpose IDE to achieve the above so I can learn the software thoroughly and be able to do all my things in the one place.
So far I have seen:
1) Aptana 3
2) Netbeans 7
3) Eclipse (not sure about version)
If anyone could help me out with choosing, it would be most appreciated. I installed eclipse and aptana but got stuck VERY early on when trying to run my simple loops program (i.e. it wouldn't run without error, may have not set up correctly!). I will put in the time though and try again.
Two things to note:
(i) code::blocks with mingGW (no idea what that is) was a breeze and worked out of the box on win7 64-bit but I still want to learn how to use one of the above.
(ii) I am aware aptana is built on top of eclipse but I am also aware that there are differences
I just wondered (a) what you guys used and also (b) what is the standard for a professional company? I can't decide myself as I don't know yet which direction my programming is taking and whether the pros/cons apply to me at this very early stage.
I hope this makes sense and thanks in advance for any replies.

Home sales in Lakewood Ranch are on the rise and are a confirmation of the recovery of the real estate market.
Recent sales statistics include, 257 homes sold in the Lakewood Ranch zip code 34202 from Jan. 1 through Aug. 31. Of those 257 homes, 15% sold at or above asking price.
"Market conditions have improved steadily month over month for the whole year," said Miranda Oswald, vice president of sales and marketing for Lakewood Ranch Communities. "People can afford to be very picky right now about where they spend their money, and we are definitely seeing an increase of market share here in Lakewood Ranch. Typically in years past, of all the homes purchased in Manatee County, approximately 2-4% were purchased in Lakewood Ranch; however, recently that number has gone up to around 12-14%."
Visitors to the Lakewood Ranch information centers and builders' models are also increasing with a lower number of inventory homes available. The number of inventory homes on the ranch has dropped dramatically in the past 90 days.
"At one point here at Lakewood Ranch, we had 850 out of 6,500 homes on the market," said Milt Flinn, president of Lakewood Ranch communities, "now we are down to 280."
Buyers such as Peter Seley of Alta Loma, Calif. see this as a time to buy. This month, Seley purchased a home in Country Club East from Paradise Homes. It will be completed in early 2010. Seley, who works in the real estate field in California, thinks the market has bottomed out.
"We looked for two years and couldn't find the right house…we finally found it in Lakewood Ranch with Paradise Homes," Seley said. "The real good bargains are being sold. People that are being reasonable, those homes are selling. I'm seeing it in California and Arizona as well."
Oswald agrees.
"We are now seeing correct pricing and we're seeing multiple offers, two strong indicators that the market is rebounding," she said.
The combination of correct pricing, lower inventory and higher traffic all point to the strength of the Lakewood Ranch brand and provide a positive outlook for new home construction in the Sarasota-Manatee area.
• For the month of September, 271 people have been through Lakewood Ranch information centers and models, as compared to 118 in September 2008.
• The number of return customers seen so far this month is quadruple the number seen last year, from 22 in 2008 to 94 this year.
• Lakewood Ranch Realty's sister company, University Title Services, had more closings in August 2009 than any other month in the past two years.
• Year to date, University Title has more than doubled the amount of closings from last year.
• In the first quarter of 2009, Lakewood Ranch had 24 new home contracts. In the second quarter, 45 new home contracts, and so far in the third quarter, 29 new home contracts.
• Commercial development is also looking up in this market — office vacancy rates on the Ranch are 16% versus the average 23% on the Interstate 75 corridor.
• 15,000 square feet of retail space was recently leased on Main Street, adding great new vitality to the already thriving businesses such as the theater, which attracts close to 20,000 visitors a month.
Home sales in Lakewood Ranch are on the rise and are a confirmation of the recovery of the real estate market.

We all set goals. Whether the goal is to save for retirement, lose 10 pounds, complete the Iron Horse Bicycle Classic or simply to make it to work on time today, most of us set goals on a regular basis.
When we have a goal, we usually have a clear notion of success. We know weve reached Silverton before the train or made it to work at 7:58. Generally, we dont put a bunch of procedures and systems in place to prove that we are reaching our goal. But we arent governmental agencies.
Historically, when a governmental agency assesses whether a program is reaching a goal, it focuses on procedures did the services start within the prescribed timeline, were the contracted number of beneficiaries served, did the beneficiary receive notice of her rights, was all the correct paperwork completed, etc. The outcome putting people to work, educating children, providing food is often secondary to the procedures, if it exists at all.
On March 2, the Department of Education reversed this trend in an announcement that the Office of Special Education Programs (OSEP) will no longer be conducting onsite verification and results visits. Instead, it will be designing a new system that looks at how well children, including children with disabilities, are being educated. One would hope that for the Department of Education, childrens education is the goal.
According to the U.S. secretary of education, the department has determined that its current system of doing onsite-compliance reviews doesnt improve student outcomes or close the achievement gap for students with disabilities. Instead, OSEP hopes to design a system more focused on those student outcomes. The 2012-13 school year will be dedicated to designing this system.
The OSEP already has developed results-based systems for some of its programs. The Early Intervention Program (Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act) has been measuring results for young children with developmental delays for several years. Early Intervention programs such as San Juan Kids at Community Connections have collected data about whether kids who receive intervention services improve their positive social and emotional skills, their acquisition of knowledge and skills and their use of appropriate behaviors to meet their needs.
So far, the data reflects excellent results. In Southwest Colorado, more than 80 percent of children ages birth to 3 who are identified with developmental delays substantially increase their growth by the time they leave Early Intervention Services. These real results make a difference in the lives of young children and their families.
As interested citizens, we should be demanding results from our governmental agencies. Instead of compliance and detailed processes, we want to see children and families achieve real outcomes of growth and knowledge.
You can support programs for young children by participating in Week of the Young Child events from April 22 to 28 in La Plata County.
For more information, call the Early Childhood Council of La Plata County at 247-5960, visit ecclaplata.org or call Community Connections at 259-2464.

Council President Tony Young hasn't endorsed anyone in the San Diego mayor's race but that hasn't kept him from showing support for both candidates' education initiatives.
Young stood with both Councilman Carl DeMaio and Rep. Bob Filner as they expressed concerns about San Diego's education systems during the past month.
He applauded as Filner on Thursday announced proposals to help students and young people. That was one month after issuing a public "call to action" with DeMaio for citizens to participate in a special joint session of the City Council and San Diego Unified School District Board scheduled for Sept. 18.
Young said that meeting has been postponed because the school board "isn't prepared" to meet with the city just yet. The city does not have any direct control over local school systems, but both DeMaio and Filner believe supplementing students' education with after school programs, internships and partnerships within their communities can help children become college-bound.
Goldsmith endorses DeMaio
San Diego City Attorney Jan Goldsmith, who was unopposed in winning re-election this year, threw his support to Carl DeMaio Thursday.
"Carl DeMaio has a record of collaboration and a temperament that makes him the best and only choice for mayor," Goldsmith said in a statement.
DeMaio, a Republican, and Filner, a Democrat, increasingly have made education a focal point as the race creeps closer to Election Day on Nov. 6. Young, a former schoolteacher, said he believes education is the most important issue in San Diego and is willing to work with either of the men who could be the city's next mayor.
"It's about the issue of education and the kids, not about the partisan politics," he said.
DeMaio and Young appeared together on Aug. 8 to discuss the disparity between schools in the city's eight council districts. The two councilmen called for the joint session that Young said will be postponed until after the election.
Filner got his political start as a member of the San Diego Unified School District board more than three decades ago. When he was later elected as a city councilman, he encouraged joint meetings of the council and the board.
Filner's news conference focused on an eight-point plan that includes ramping up the city's Hire-a-Youth program, partnering with businesses to create apprenticeship programs for youth aged 16 to 24 and increasing spending on libraries and recreation centers.
"The way we think about education currently is in silos," Filner said. "And my mantra is that the whole city needs to be responsible for educating our youth."
Young said he was supportive of Filner's initiatives and that he hopes DeMaio comes up with a more robust plan to address more specific needs of school children.
Neither candidate has advocated giving the city a direct role in governing San Diego Unified, as was proposed during the mayoral primary campaign by District Attorney Bonnie Dumanis, who finished a distant fourth.
DeMaio has yet to unveil a detailed education proposal and the topic is a modest part of his two economic plans.
His news conference in August largely looked at a study that showed great disparities between the performance of students throughout the city depending on where they lived. The study was produced by the Center for Education Policy and Law at the University of San Diego.
Neither DeMaio nor Filner faulted Young for appearing with each of them at education events.
"Tony is all about solving a problem not taking one side or the other," DeMaio said. "We need more people in government like that."
City Council seats and the mayor's office are technically nonpartisan. Young is a Democrat who hasn't always towed the party line, resulting in the San Diego and Imperial Counties Labor Council giving him a failing grade earlier this year.Copyright © 2018, The San Diego Union-Tribune

Rockies can't halt Phillies' knack for walk-offs
PHILADELPHIA -- For the second time in as many nights, closer Rafael Betancourt couldn't put the Phillies away in the ninth -- blowing his third save opportunity of the season as the Rockies dropped a 5-4 decision on Thursday night at Citizens Bank Park.
The loss overshadowed another big night offensively for catcher Wilin Rosario, who hit his 20th home run of the season, as the Rockies fell to 1-32 in road games where the home team scored first.Full Game Coverage
PHILADELPHIA -- For the second time in as many nights, closer Rafael Betancourt couldn't put the Phillies away in the ninth -- blowing his third save opportunity of the season as the Rockies dropped a 5-4 decision on Thursday night at Citizens Bank Park.
The loss overshadowed another big night offensively for catcher Wilin Rosario, who hit his 20th home run of the season, as the Rockies fell to 1-32 in road games where the home team scored first.Full Game Coverage
With two outs, Phillies shortstop Jimmy Rollins doubled into the right-field corner. Betancourt, who returned from the disabled list on Aug. 16 (appendicitis), allowed Rollins to steal third unabated. Michael Young followed with a two-strike dribbler to the left side that third baseman Nolan Arenado failed to pick up with his bare hand, and Rollins easily scored to tie the game at 4. After the play, Rockies medical personnel came onto the field to check on Betancourt, who promptly left with a sprained pitching elbow. He was saddled with the loss.
"You come out of the game, it's usually not good," Rockies manager Walt Weiss said. "He felt something in his elbow.
"He didn't mention anything about it [before the game]. Raffy has been great in the closer role. He's dealt with a couple of injuries, but he's a warrior."
Southpaw Jeff Francis entered the game and walked Chase Utley before allowing a walk-off single to Domonic Brown that scored Young from second.
"That's a part of the game," said Rockies starter Chad Bettis, who missed out on his first career win after going 5 1/3 innings, allowing just one run with five strikeouts. "You can't count the other team out until the last out is made and you have to give them credit. They just kept coming at us."
Rosario extended his hitting streak to 13 straight with a three-run home run in the sixth inning to give the Rockies a 4-1 lead.
After the Rockies (59-70) manufactured a run in the fifth to tie the game on Dexter Fowler's sacrifice fly, Troy Tulowitzki opened the sixth with a single over the head of Phillies shortstop Rollins. Phillies starter Kyle Kendrick had been very efficient over the first five innings as he scattered four hits and used just 58 pitches to reach the sixth, but Tulowitzki's single foreshadowed the end of the night for the veteran right-hander.
Michael Cuddyer followed Tulowitzki with a single into right and that brought Rosario to the plate. Kendrick had retired Rosario twice previously on the night, but his 1-1 pitch spent little time airborne before it crashed into the left-field stands. Just like that, the Rockies held a three-run lead. Kendrick lasted one more hitter, as Todd Helton's single to left put an end to his night one batter later.
Rosario's home run was his fifth at Citizens Bank Park in just seven games -- he also has five at Chase Field -- and his third in as many nights. As a catcher, his primary position even though he did play first on Wednesday, he has 18 home runs and 66 RBIs. He's also been particularly good on the road as 11 of his 20 home runs have come away from Coors Field.
"Wilin has been swinging the bat well," Weiss said. "For a few weeks now. That's a dynamic bat. He's an impact offensive player.
The Phillies got on the board in the second as Brown led off the inning with a single into right field.
Carlos Ruiz, whose double one night earlier tied the game at 3 in the ninth en route to a 4-3 Phillies win, hit a line drive down the left-field line that Corey Dickerson cut off before it reached the warning track. Brown took the opportunity to head for third and while the ball beat him to the bag, third-base umpire Jim Wolf ruled that Arenado missed the tag. Arenado argued the call to no avail and Ruiz scampered into second.
After a strikeout, Cody Asche hit a flare into left for a double that scored Brown and moved Ruiz to third. That was all the Phillies got off of Bettis, who settled down and struck out both Roger Bernadina and Kendrick to end the inning.
"I felt real good," said Bettis, who is the Rockies' No. 8 prospect, according to MLB.com. "I felt as good as my last start, but with better command and location of my pitches. I was just trying to get outs and keep us in it as long as possible."
