Enter the Showroom at Harrah's on the Las Vegas strip and enter a time capsule with me. We're going to back to December 4, 1956. The unbelievable happens. Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis. Carl Perkins and Elvis Presley all are at the Sun Records storefront studio in Memphis for the first - and only time.
They are in various stages of their careers. There's a bit of rivalry. They are showman, each wanting the center of attention, each wanting to be The Man. These are the early days - the days when preachers spoke from the pulpits decrying the dangers of rock n roll.
But these legendary performers knew better. They knew this was the future and they were going to be the stars. Within minutes, the audience is hearing Blue Suede Shoes, assuring us that this journey will take us where we want to go. We hear "Wild One" and a young Jerrry Lee Lewis is pounding the keys of the piano.
The set design feels right, the microphones are from then, not now. Carl Perkins sings "Blue Suede Shoes". Someone calls Elvis, "that hillbilly". Johnny Cash, dressed all in black, gives us a little of Folsom Prison. We hear "Sixteen Tons", "Memories are Made of This." Many of us have some good memories to go with these songs.
Million Dollar Quartet is an excuse to play some of the best music of the 1950's. The plot line isn't that strong. Broken contracts and competition take a weak second place to the memorable music and the likeable performances. There's an in-joke here and there. Elvis has opened in Las Vegas for Shecky Greene and bombed. The people weren't ready for what he delivered. He announces, " "I'll never play Vegas again."
The show is about the artists and their music and you are treated to several songs with these great artists jamming. You'll hear "Peace in The Valley" and Johnny Cash doing "I Walk The Line."
This show walks the line between a full out Broadway show and a concert. But the music is authentic and is well presented. The beginning is slow, but the ending makes up for it. Take a trip back to the 50's if you want to visit the songs of those days.
In addition to the rock ' roll, there's gospel, R&B and country hits. This is the real thing. no canned music, no lip sync. The performers are top rate, saluting the stars they are playing. The mannerisms and nuances are there. Wow, Jerrry Lee Lewis can bang that piano, Elvis can swivel those hips.
And you can enjoy your trip back to 1956 in the Harrah's Showroom. For days, times and prices, contact the Harrah's Showroom hotline at 702 369 5111 or Ticketmaster. See the Million Dollar Quartet.

In January 1964, only a few scant weeks before the Beatles took America by storm, the band mates settled in for an extended stay in Paris. For the group, the Parisian visit proved to be a magical experience, with the Beatles playing 18 shows at the Olympia Theatre between Jan. 16 and Feb. 4.
On the first evening, the band performed a sold-out concert before a raucous audience, playing such numbers as "She Loves You," "Twist and Shout," and "Long Tall Sally." But the real highlight for John, Paul, George and Ringo occurred later that night in their suite at the George V Hotel, when the band mates learned that "I Want to Hold Your Hand" had topped the American charts three short weeks before their legend-making appearance on the "Ed Sullivan Show."
For the Beatles, it was a dream come true. As Paul McCartney later recalled, the Beatles received a congratulatory telegram from Capitol Records and "we didn't come down for a week." With their longtime roadie Mal Evans in tow, they became ecstatic, jumping up and down in their hotel suite out of sheer joy. As George Harrison remembered, "It was a great feeling because we were booked to go to America directly after the Paris trip, so it was handy to have a No. 1. We'd already been hired by Ed Sullivan, so if it had been a No. 2 or No. 10 we'd have gone anyway, but it was nice to have a No. 1."
The Beatles' unforgettable Paris visit also included a Jan. 29 session at EMI's Pathé Marconi Studio, where the band mates had been scheduled to record German-language versions of "I Want to Hold Your Hand" and "She Loves You." Flush with their amazing spate of success, the Beatles staged a brief mutiny -- and much to the chagrin of producer George Martin. As Martin later recalled, "I barged into their suite, to be met by this incredible sight, right out of the Mad Hatter's tea party. Jane Asher -- Paul's girlfriend -- with her long red hair, was pouring tea from a china pot, and the others were sitting around her like March Hares. They took one look at me and exploded, like in a school room when the headmaster enters. Some dived into the sofa and hid behind cushions, others dashed behind curtains. 'You are bastards!' I screamed, to which they responded with impish little grins and roguish apologies."
With their mutiny having been peaceably quelled, the Beatles joined their renowned producer at Pathé Marconi, where they not only completed the German-language tracks that would become "Komm Gib Mir Deine Hand" and "Sie Liebt Dich," but also began work on a new song, "Can't Buy Me Love," which McCartney had composed on a borrowed upright piano in the group's suite. By April, "Can't Buy Me Love" would be a smash hit across the globe, nearly matching the phenomenal success of "I Want to Hold Your Hand."
But as February 1964 dawned on the Beatles in Paris, they had their sights firmly set on New York City and their upcoming appearance on Ed Sullivan's popular variety show. And as history well knows, the four lads from Liverpool were destined to receive a welcoming party that -- even in their wildest dreams -- they could never possibly have imagined.
Kenneth Womack is the author of numerous works of nonfiction, including "Long and Winding Roads: The Evolving Artistry of the Beatles" (2007). He has also written three novels, including "John Doe No. 2" and the "Dreamland Motel" (2010), "The Restaurant at the End of the World" (2012), and "Playing the Angel" (2013). A professor of English and integrative arts at Penn State Altoona, Womack was selected in April 2013 to serve as the sixth Penn State laureate.
Penn State Altoona will host an international Beatles celebration Feb. 7-9, 2014, during the 50th anniversary of the band's legendary performance on "The Ed Sullivan Show."

OROVILLE — A co-defendant in a Palermo dog attack case was today held in contempt and arrested following a court disruption that resulted in the use of a stun gun.
Ruben Daniel Cambra was scheduled to appear in Butte County Superior Court for the receipt of a mental competence report in the case where he, his mother Chic Gordon, and Theodore Jason Scherbenske were charged following a May 21 dog attack.
The situation deteriorated quickly after Judge Steven Howell called the case. Cambra went to the defense table while his mother attempted to follow with her service dog.
Several deputies told Gordon to step back and wait until she was called by the court. At the same time, other deputies told Cambra to sit for the hearing.
The defendant refused, saying "Do not put your hands on me."
The officers remained in close contact with the defendant.
At several points, the judge asked Cambra to sit or be quiet, but the defendant remained defiant.
Cambra argued his constitutional rights were being violated and demanded Howell recuse himself. The defendant cited concerns about a March 19 hearing where the defendant collapsed and needed medical attention. Outside of court, Gordon alleged Howell had delayed the arrival of medical personnel during that hearing.
Cambra threatened to use citizen"s arrest on Howell if the judge didn"t recuse himself.
At that point, Judge Howell ordered deputies to take Cambra into custody. Several police officers seated in the jury box awaiting other hearings stepped forward to help deputies detain the defendant.
Officers struggled with Cambra, who at one point said "OK, OK," but appeared to continue struggling. He said the officers didn"t have the right to arrest him.
"I will be arresting people for this," Cambra said.
Eventually, Cambra was forced to bend over the railing separating the audience from the rest of the court. Seeming to acknowledge he was being arrested, he asked Gordon to remove his glasses. Gordon, who had stepped back during the disruption, slowly came forward and removed the frames without incident.
Once Cambra was subdued, several officers escorted the defendant from the room. He was subsequently given medical treatment, the judge said later.
Several personnel, including defense attorney Kevin Sears, confirmed afterward that a stun gun had been used on Cambra during the struggle, but it didn"t appear to fully stop him.
Once order was restored, Howell recited a summary of what happened for the record and prepared to take a recess to prepare a court order about the matter.
Before the court adjourned, Gordon asked for the court to consider a doctor"s evaluation she said concluded that Cambra should be excused from court proceedings for health reasons. She also said the court had previously denied to accommodate Cambra"s disabilities.
After Cambra"s previous collapse, Scherbenske said Cambra is still suffering from a concussion he received when he was arrested June 7. Gordon said Thursday that Cambra is also legally blind.
When court reconvened, Howell ruled Cambra was in contempt of court. He said the defendant was out of control and repeatedly refused to follow court orders. Because of events, a warning related to the contempt wasn"t necessary.
"In my 24 years plus, I"ve never been exposed to the outburst I"ve witnessed today," Howell said.
A sentencing date will be set after the criminal case is resolved.
Returning to the mental competence matter, Howell noted the doctor was unable to meet with Cambra. The judge indicated he could remand Cambra to jail until the appointment is kept.
Sears objected to holding Cambra for the interview and also objected to the contempt finding. He said he had initially wanted the court to tell Cambra that jailing was an option for not meeting the doctor, but ultimately asked for the defendant to be released.
"I don"t think him being in jail is going to help him or any of us," Sears said.
Sears said that both and the doctor had difficulty meeting with Cambra alone outside of the presence of his mother. He said Cambra and Gordon had divergent interests as co-defendants and it wasn"t proper for Gordon to be present for such interviews.
Deputy district attorney Kennedy Rizzuto asked that Cambra remain in custody until the interview is conducted.
Howell ordered Cambra be held without bail and that the doctor interview him there. He set a status hearing for May 16.
After the ruling, Gordon told the court Cambra isn"t in a condition to be interviewed by a doctor. She also expressed concern Cambra wouldn"t be able to keep other medical appointments while in custody.
Outside of court, Sears said the incident didn"t have to happen if Cambra had listened to him instead of Gordon. He said he would be able to defend Cambra against the criminal charges if Gordon stopped interfering.
All three defendants have disagreed with their court-appointed attorneys at various points and sought to replace them. Judges have denied the requests thus far.

I have heard that the champion has a tendency to get heated up with can ruin some of the health benefits of fresh juice?
Yes, the champion juicer works on the mastication process, which causes some friction. The housing of the champion may get warm to the touch in some instances. (This especially happens when you are using a DULL BLADE or juicing A LARGE quantity at once). I believe we were the first retailer on the web to advertise the champion to cause some heating. While the heating is very minor (ie: a little warmer), its by no means "cooking" your juice). While we have not done any testing on this issue, It is our opinion, the heat will NOT HAVE A SIGNIFICANT impact on the health benefits of the juice. It may slightly affect the quality of the juice if the temperature gets too, too hot, and start to degrade the enzymes. To lessen the effects of the friction/heat, we suggest a few things:

Warde baseball edges Staples baseball
WESTPORT -- Thanks to a pair of outstanding performances on the mound, no one in the starting lineup of either the Staples or Fairfield Warde baseball teams was able to produce a hit that would score the game's first run.
After Staples' Rob Vallone and Warde's Nick Nardone traded zeroes for six innings, up stepped pinch hitter Sean Homa for the Mustangs with runners on first and second in the top of the seventh.
Homa delivered in a big way, breaking a scoreless tie with an RBI double that sent the Mustangs to a 2-0 win over Staples on Friday afternoon. The win concluded a week of litmus tests against some of the FCIAC's top contenders for Warde.
"We knew we had a tough week with New Canaan, Greenwich, Staples and Norwalk," Warde coach Mark Caron said. "We had a goal to go 2-2, and to do it against Staples on their home field shows we are a team that's for real this year, and we're excited about it."
Nardone was stellar for Warde (5-4), firing a complete game shutout by allowing just three hits while recording seven strikeouts, including one against Nick Vega to end the game.
"If there's one word to describe Nick, it's that he's a competitor." Caron said. "And he finds a way to win. He's a winner and a competitor, and he demonstrated that today. He knows how to pitch and keep hitters off balance."
Vallone was equally strong for Staples before running into trouble in the top of the seventh. The first two batters reached before Homa doubled off reliever Ben Casparius -- one of only two extra base hits either team had Friday.
"Sean has a real quick, short quick swing," Caron said. "I figured that he would give us the best chance to put a ball in the gap like he did."
Three batters later, Nardone delivered an RBI single with the bases loaded to double Warde's advantage. The second run provided more than enough cushion.
"I don't think when I hit," Nardone said. "I go up, I see a pitch and I swing, that's all I do. That was just an extra run; all I needed was one today. Obviously I was excited to get a little insurance just in case."
Offense remains inconsistent for the Wreckers (6-3), who dropped their second in three games. Staples has scored five runs in its three losses this season.
"I'm very disappointed in the lineup," Wreckers coach Jack McFarland said. "We've worked hard on trying to score runs, we scored eight in the first inning against Trinity (Wednesday) and today we come out on a nice day; I'm disappointed."
For the second straight outing, Vallone ran into an equally outstanding pitcher. Vallone matched zeroes with Greenwich's Kyle Dunster in a 2-1 extra inning win for the Wreckers last Thursday.
"Rob pitched great today," McFarland said. "The disappointing part is that it's a wasted pitching effort. He pitched great against Greenwich and today, but he gets a no decision and a loss. It's tough."
Fairfield Warde 2, Staples 0
Records: Fairfield Warde 5-4, 5-2 FCIAC; Staples 6-3, 5-2.
Batteries: FW--Nick Nardone and Anthony Miller. S--Rob Villone (L), Ben Casparius and Adam Dulsky. Highlights: FW--Nardone threw a complete game shutout, allowing three hits. Sean Homa had an RBI double.

Learn what RIP software can do for screen and digital printers.
When a new technology is introduced into an industry, there is usually a small band of innovators who hop on board first. They invest their time and money in hopes of leveraging it to improve productivity and gain a competitive advantage. Over time, as the technology becomes increasingly accepted in the industry, the competitive advantage largely disappears and new users must adopt it simply to keep pace. As an example of this, Mark Bagley—a consultant and owner of Digital Marketing Solutions in Orlando, FL— believes that RIP software is currently in that life cycle stage where screen printers need to have it simply to exist.
"The screen printers who are have been in business for more than a couple of years are being forced to bring on more technology that will allow them to compete with direct-to-digital market. New screen printers may still limit themselves to printing one or two colors, but in time it will make it tougher to survive. After that, they start to look into RIP software," he says.
A generation ago, a small mom-and-pop shop could get by simply offering simple one- or two-color prints. With the rise of the digital age, artists and consumers have become aware of the options available online for customized, limited run products that feature multiple colors and even photo reproduction. When they visit their local screen printer, they're expecting similar quality and price points. RIP software is a critical tool towards achieving that capability using affordable inkjet printers.

As I know many of you work with the popular acrylic yarn Special DK from Stylecraft when making blankets and throws, I decided to put together a colour chart in this yarn for the Circle In Square Blanket. I've done my best to match most of the colours used and all you need to do is add scraps of similar shades from your already existing stash of acrylic yarn.
I had so much fun putting together this colour chart, because that is also playing with colors. And playing with layout programs and graphic design is also a great source of HAPPY for me, so why not? I hope the typical My Rose Valley colour palette can inspire you for a new make. And I'm curious to know what your favorite palette is? Where in the wheel of colour are you the most happy?

Each week, we'll ask our stable of scribes to weigh in on the three most important NBA topics of the day — and then give you a chance to step on the scale, too, in the comments below.
Week 16: All-time favorite Dunk Contest dunk? | On LeBron's hot streak … | Winning it all without a star
What stands out as your favorite all-time Dunk Contest dunk?
Steve Aschburner: I'm going with my pick of the most neglected, underappreciated dunk in Slam Dunk contest history. When Andre Iguodala came from back amongst the photographers on the baseline on one of his throwdowns in Houston in 2006, the geometry seemed impossible. Somehow, as a helper bounced the ball off the back of the backboard, Iguodala grabbed the carom, ducked his head to avoid the both the glass and any support bars and dunked from behind the board. It was stunning, and remarkable that he didn't slam-head-dunk-himself. The Sixers' young forward had two other terrific dunks, including a windmill in which he passed the ball behind his back … and he came away with nothing. That was one of the years in which people were fascinated with Nate Robinson's little-man theatrics, which meant sitting through about 20 straight misses (yawn) till he got a big one right. Said it then and I'll say it again: Iggy was robbed.
Fran Blinebury: I've seen them all in person since Larry Nance upset Dr. J in the first back in 1984 at Denver. Michael Jordan beating Dominique Wilkins at Chicago in 1988 was spectacular. Vince Carter putting his elbow on the rim in 2000 in Oakland was awesome. But I had the best seat in the house — front row courtside, straight out from the free throw line — at Dallas in 1986 and 5-foot-7 Spud Webb was simply breathtaking. He started by slamming a backwards dunk so hard that ball went through the net and bounced off his head. He did a pair of 360s and a double-clutch, two-hander. Then he finally took down Dominique in the finals by bouncing the ball just inside the free throw line and off the glass, catching it in his right hand and slamming it home. One of the photos from Sports Illustrated shows his feet even with referee Wally Rooney's chest. Air Spud. I can still see the little guy flying.
Jeff Caplan: I just ran into Dominique Wilkins the other night and he's not all that fond of this year's dunk contestants. Nothing against the guys personally, but he'd like to see some bigger names go at it like back in the day. So, I'm going way back to the Human Highlight Film's windmill dunks because, frankly, I think he's the one that introduced the windmill dunk or at least elevated it to an artform converging out-of-this-world athletic, finesse and raw power. So which windmill dunk? After all, Wilkins is a two-time dunk champ and probably should have won one or two more considering he was in five of them. Anyway, I'll take Niques' two-handed windmill jam that earned him the '85 title in a showdown with Michael Jordan, who, by the way, brought out the rock-the-cradle jam.
Scott Howard-Cooper: If we're talking NBA dunk contest, that leaves out the great Julius Erving–David Thompson moment at halftime in Denver in the ABA days. In the orange-ball world, I'll go with Blake Griffin redefining the term carhop. So much hype had built through the season about Blake Superior and his dunk arsenal that it seemed there was nothing he could do step up to the moment. And then he did. The car, Baron Davis with the assist, the choir — pure theater. It was way over the top, but what the event needed after years of losing excitement.
John Schuhmann: There's something — the power, really — about Dominique Wilkins' dunks that gets me fired up. My favorite in-game dunk might be the time he destroyed Larry Bird on a fast break, and my favorite dunk contest dunk was his two-handed windmill (8:20 mark here) in the finals of the 1988 contest in Chicago. He got up high, he brought the ball all the way around from left to right, and he almost tore down the rim. Elevation, finesse and oh, the power. We've seen more difficult dunks since then, but I'll always think of '88 as the best dunk contest ever, because it was two stars going head to head and just thinking up stuff on the fly. Nique did a variety of windmills that night, but the two-hander was the highlight. That the judges gave him a 45 (to open the door for Jordan to win on the final dunk) was pretty ridiculous.
Sekou Smith: "You're going to a reunion of all the JET Beauty of the Week superstars of the past 40 years. Give me your favorite?" It's an impossible question given all of the options. Being the lover of hang time that I am, it's hard to ignore the icons of the contest (Michael Jordan, Dominique Wilkins and Dr. J). But as far as anticipation and delivery, I'd have to go with Vince Carter's work in the 2000 contest. It was a rebirth for the contest, after a two year layoff, and an introduction to a new breed of dunk champ. Vince was the first guy I saw in the contest that took me back to MJ and 'Nique. His first dunk, that 360 windmill with the cuff, was just plain wicked. Made me love the dunk contest all over again.

The question is this: I have seen online communities over the years, and the amount of foul language is really high. People are not polite to each others and flame wars are common.
How come this community is so well behaved? I don't see the admins/moderators cleaning the site, this is just the user well behaving, which is really amazing. Do you have any idea why is this happening only on Stack Exchange?

When Small Is Better
Article reviews advantages and challenges of using nanotechnology in drug delivery
Researchers at Pacific Northwest National Laboratory drew upon their expertise in nanoscience and nanotechnologies to write a review article on using nanotechnologies for drug delivery. The article is online now and will appear in an upcoming issue of Small, the journal on fundamental and applied interdisciplinary research at micro- and nanodimensions.
Nanomaterials, composed of tiny particles or tubes a hundred thousand times smaller than the diameter of a single strand of human hair, may hold the key to solving problems in alternative energy, national security, and even human health. An article by Dr. Aihui Ma-Ham, Dr. Zhiwen Tang, Ms. Hong Wu, Dr. Jun Wang and Dr. Yuehe Lin in Small reviewed current developments in one area of promise for nanomaterials: protein-based nanomedicine platforms for drug delivery.
These researchers are part of PNNL's Transformational Materials Science Initiative, which is investigating novel nanomaterials and technologies that generate electronic signals in the presence of specific chemicals or biological agents. These materials are at the heart of technologies designed for sensing and separating chemicals and biological agents, whether those materials are blood sugar in diabetics or nerve agents in first responders.
The perfect system: Where medicine travels and where it ends up in the body directly influence how effective the drug will be in easing pain or curing disease. For example, it can take from 1 to 3 days for an anticancer drug to infiltrate the tumor cells, when time is of the essence in halting the spread of the disease. Protein-based nanoparticles are ideal for drug delivery because they are compatible with human biology, are biodegradable, and have low toxicity.
In their review article, the PNNL researchers shared the characteristics that make a good drug delivery system. Such a system is designed to reach the specific target organ in the body, is nontoxic, can be manufactured at a large scale, and has a higher ratio of medicine to the nanoparticles carrying it.
They also noted the challenges remaining before this technology can be widely applied. One of the biggest challenges is that the production of useful protein-based delivery systems is in its infancy. Biologists, chemists, and material scientists like those at PNNL are collaborating to develop a system that can be produced at large enough scales to truly make a difference for patients.
The future: "Nanomaterials hold a lot of promise," said Lin. "From sensing pesticides and biological agents to storing energy and treating disease, these complex materials can play many innovative roles." Under PNNL's Transformational Materials Science Initiative, Lin is leading nanomaterials research for homeland security and biomedical applications.
Acknowledgments: Work on which the review was based was conducted as part of PNNL's Transformational Materials Science Initiative. The initiative is developing the capabilities necessary to solve the underlying materials science challenges for the U.S. Department of Energy, national security agencies, industry, and others. Work was performed at DOE's EMSL, a national scientific user facility at PNNL.

When Fashion Causes Pain
As a woman, I love my shoes, especially my four inch purple patent-leather heels. My favorite handbag is not the diaper bag that I am normally carrying, but my 15-inch tote. So on the occasion that I have a girls' night out and have shed the sneakers and diaper bag, the next morning I notice that I have increased back and foot pain. As a physical therapist, I can explain why some fashion choices can cause pain, but I can also give you some tips on how to address the problem.
The negative effects related to wearing heels include increased incidence of sprained ankles, low back pain and leg pain. High heels create unstable posture, which increases the compressive forces in the low back. The change in posture leads to compensatory muscle firing that can cause discomfort and fatigue.
Purses cause similar body mechanics issues. We love our very large handbags that on occasion have been known to double as luggage or a diaper bag. Doctors say that they're treating more people for elbow, shoulder and neck pain due to the latest trend of carrying giant handbags.
Wearing heavy handbags over one shoulder causes uneven weight distribution across the back and may restrict blood flow at the shoulder. Heavy purses and unpadded shoulder straps place extra pressure on the nerves of the neck and shoulders and can result in pain, tingling, stiffness, numbness and tightness in the neck, shoulders and low back.
The American Occupational Therapy Association offers several strategies for selecting and packing a purse:
- Avoid heavily loaded tote-style bags worn over the shoulder.
- Avoid handbags made of heavy material such as leather; select bags made of lighter materials such as fabric.
- Avoid thin and long straps – they should be wide and adjustable.
- Eliminate unnecessary contents.
- Regularly empty your wallet of coins and unused cards.
- Use travel sized items such as lotions and hand sanitizers.
- Leave keys that you do not use on a regular basis at home.
- Place the strap diagonally across the opposite shoulder to help distribute the weight across the back (Cross body bags are designed to be worn this way.).
As a general rule, handbags should not weigh more than 10 to 15 percent of your body weight. For example, a 100-pound female's purse should not weigh more than 15 pounds. This applies to moms toting huge diaper bags as well! A back friendly alternative to a handbag or diaper bag is a backpack. Backpacks are available in many fashionable colors, sizes and styles.
So for an occasional date night or girls' night out, strap on the stilettos, but for your normal routine, stick to flats or heels less than one-inch high. As for giant handbags, lighten up: these days our smart phones can do almost anything!
If you are experiencing neck, back or shoulder pain, a physical therapist can start you on a treatment program to alleviate your discomfort. Contact Good Shepherd at 1-888-447-3422, or Request an Appointment.

Commercial pilots to face stricter FAA rules as Flight 3407 families draw praise
WASHINGTON – New commercial airline pilots will need to have far more experience before climbing into the cockpit under a new set of federal rules unveiled Wednesday that won widespread praise from the Families of Continental Flight 3407 and members of Congress.
The new Federal Aviation Administration rules, which stem from a law Congress passed in reaction to the crash of Continental Connection Flight 3407 in Clarence Center in 2009, require many co-pilots to have 1,500 hours of flying experience before being assigned to passenger flights.
Former military pilots and beginning pilots with a college aviation degree won't need 1,500 hours of flight time, but to become a co-pilot on a commercial airline, they'll need at least three times the previous minimum of 250 hours of flying experience.
The Flight 3407 families have been fighting for a big increase in pilot experience requirements since shortly after the Clarence crash, which claimed 50 lives, and they were happy to see the FAA finally act.
"This is a huge step in U.S. aviation safety history that will honor our lost loved ones from 3407 and those crashes before and will benefit people all around the world as others look to the U.S. for standards in excellence," said Scott Maurer, whose daughter, Lorin, was killed in the crash.
The new regulations, which will take effect as soon as they are published in the Federal Register, include:
• A requirement that pilots have a minimum of 1,000 flight hours of experience as co-pilots before becoming the captain of an aircraft.
• A stronger training regimen that pilots and co-pilots will have to follow before getting an air transport pilot certificate, including 1,500 hours of flight experience or its equivalent and 50 hours of experience on a multi-engine plane.
• Exemptions from the 1,500-hour requirement for military pilots with 750 hours of flight time, graduates with a bachelor's degree in aviation with 1,000 hours of flight time and those with an associate's degree with an aviation major who have 1,250 hours of flight time.
• A requirement that first officers have an "aircraft type rating," which involves additional training and testing specific to the type of aircraft they fly.
"The rule gives first officers a stronger foundation of aeronautical knowledge and experience before they fly for an air carrier," said FAA Administrator Michael P. Huerta. "With this rule and our efforts to address pilot fatigue – both initiatives championed by the families of Colgan Flight 3407 – we're making a safe system even safer."
Colgan, a now-defunct regional airline, operated Flight 3407 on behalf of Continental. After Flight 3407 crashed, federal investigators found that a poorly trained captain and an inexperienced first officer made mistakes that caused the crash.
The families of the crash victims quickly banded together to press for a new aviation safety law, which they helped push through Congress in 2010. Since then, they've been pushing the FAA to implement the new rules Congress called for under that law.
Wednesday's announcement of final regulations on pilot qualifications was the second of three big new regulations called for under that law. The FAA finalized new rules aimed at curbing pilot fatigue in 2011, and plans to finish new pilot-training rules by October.
"The other component equally important is the quality of training that first officers and newly hired pilots are going to be required to have, specifically stall training and bad-weather flight training," said Susan Bourque, whose sister Beverly Eckert, a 9/11 activist, was killed in the crash.
"This has been over four years of very, very hard work, and nobody ever gets everything they want, but we've come pretty close and we are grateful," Bourque said at a news conference in Clarence.
Western New York's lawmakers agreed – and credited the Flight 3407 families with pressing Congress and the FAA to implement such stringent new pilot requirements.
"Over the past four years, the families who lost loved ones on Flight 3407 have been a constant and powerful force in Congress, working to improve aviation safety standards so others are spared the same loss they have had to endure," said Sen. Kirsten E. Gillibrand, D-N.Y. "Their tireless efforts are leading to some of the most significant safety improvements in years."
Gillibrand and Sen. Charles E. Schumer, D-N.Y., pushed strongly for the aviation safety law, as did Reps. Brian Higgins, D-Buffalo; Louise M. Slaughter, D-Fairport; and then-Rep. Chris Lee, R-Amherst. And this year, Rep. Chris Collins, R-Clarence, joined the House and added to the chorus pressing the FAA to implement the pilot experience rules, which had been repeatedly delayed.
"Finally, the FAA has stopped dragging its feet and is moving forward in implementing the new safety regulations championed by Flight 3407 families and passed by Congress back in 2010," Collins said. "The flying public owes the Flight 3407 families a large debt of gratitude for turning their tremendous loss into a crusade to make sure the flying public is as safe as possible."
The FAA's delays in issuing the pilot experience rule stemmed in part from airline industry concerns that a hard-and-fast 1,500-hour flight time requirement for new co-pilots could produce a pilot shortage. The agency's decision to set lower hours requirements for military- and college-trained pilots shows that those industry concerns were valid, said Roger Cohen, president of the Regional Airline Association. Nevertheless, Cohen noted that in anticipation of the tougher experience requirements, more than 8,000 pilots have done what's needed to get an air transport pilot certificate, which the FAA will now require for first officers as well as captains.
The Flight 3407 families said they will continue pressing for the new pilot-training rules – while acknowledging that their loved ones' sacrifice is resulting in a safer aviation system.
"It's been four years in the making and one more hurdle we got over," said Jennifer West, whose husband, Ernie, was killed in the crash. "They gave their lives, but they are saving so many more lives."

Friday Fun: Icons of the 1970s
By Mike Schlee
Photo Gallery:
Icons of the 1990s
The 1990s were strange times. There seemed to be a bit of everything in the 1990s; grunge, epic televised court cases, boy bands, cheating presidents, a championship Toronto sports team, and a female prime minister. Things were no different in the automotive world. The decade began with the market craving a rash of hot new sports cars and morphed priorities towards sport utilities and retro cars by decade's end. Some of the cars that saw the light of day in 90s are still icons in 2013 and will go down in history as some of the best vehicles ever produced. Below I present my list of 15 vehicles that will forever be associated with the 1990s.
Acura NSX
When the NSX arrive on the scene in 1990, it brought along with it one aspect that had been missing from supercars previously: reliability. This mid-engine, perfectly balanced supercar could out-handle vehicles costing several times its price while still being driven to work and back every day. After the introduction of the NSX, the concept of an everyday supercar was a reality and several exotic European manufacturers had to step up their game.
Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1
The 1990–1995 Chevrolet Corvette ZR-1 was more than just a mighty LT5 V8. Every aspect of the car's performance was elevated, including the suspension and brakes. Initially offered with 385 hp, it was increased to 405 hp before ending production. The ZR-1 brought the Corvette from sports car to supercar and showed the world Chevrolet could build a serious contender.

Dodge Ram
Before the 1994 Dodge Ram came on the scene, pickup trucks did not offer much in the way of style. Most were rectangular boxes with a cab sticking out the top. Spurred on by poor sales, the Dodge team decided to make a dramatic redesign of their full-size pick-up truck. With styling mirroring that of Big Rig transport trucks, the Ram was an immediate success. Instantly recognizable, the same styling cues are being used to this day and forced all other full size pickups to think outside the box.
Dodge Viper
Inspired by the original Shelby Cobra, the Viper used the same concept of a very large motor in a small roadster body. When it first appeared at the Detroit Autoshow in 1989, no one thought Dodge would build this monster. But by 1992 the car was available for sale complete with an 8.0L V10—but no windows. There was nothing subtle about this car, including its performance. Thankfully, in 2013 the Viper is set to return to showrooms still wearing a body reminiscent of this original.

Eagle Talon / Mitsubishi Eclipse / Plymouth Laser
These compact hatchback triplets were the kings of the 'tuner scene' before the world even knew there was a tuner scene. Before there was ever a Lancer Evolution or WRX STi, these vehicles were running around with 2.0L turbocharged four-cylinder engines sending power to all four wheels. When they came on the scene in 1990, they could be specified with 195 hp attached their all-wheel-drive system. Unfortunately, these cars also became iconic for the phrase 'crank-walk'.
Ford Explorer
The latter half of the 1990's was dominated by the influx of sport utility vehicles, led by the bestselling Ford Explorer. There was a period of time where it seemed everyone was ditching their minivans and sedans for these body-on-frame brutes. It felt like Explorers, Blazers, Pathfinders and Cherokees were as common as Civics and Cavaliers in the late 1990s. It hasn't take long for consumers' tastes to change, though, and the crossover is now the king of the family vehicle. So much so that the Explorer has even become one.
Top: GM EV1, photo courtesy CarInPicture.com; bottom: Honda Prelude, photo courtesy NetCarShow.com. Click image to enlarge
The GM EV1 was the first modern electric car. Available for lease only and in very few places, the EV1 was a glimpse into the automotive future. While many conspiracy theories and hypotheses exist as to why it was cancelled, the EV1 did show a short-range all-electric city car could work in today's world. Less than 20 years later, we have consumer-ready electric cars. Still unconvinced it was iconic? How many other cars from the 1990's have award-winning feature-length movies made about them?
Honda Civic/Honda Prelude/Acura Integra
Although it was on sale for a long time before the 1990s, it was this decade when the Civic really came into its own. By the end of the decade it had become Canada's number one selling car, a crown it has not given up since. The Civic, along with its front-wheel-drive relatives, the Acura Integra and Honda Prelude, was the cornerstone of the import tuner craze that swept through North America in the late 1990s. To this day, mint condition examples of any of these front-wheel-drive Hondas are coveted by enthusiasts.

Irish cuisine is a style of cooking originating from Ireland or developed by Irish people. It evolved from centuries of social and political change. The cuisine takes its influence from the crops grown and animals farmed in its temperate climate. The introduction of the potato in the second half of the 16th century heavily influenced Ireland's cuisine thereafter and, as a result, is often closely associated with Ireland. Representative Irish dishes include Irish stew, bacon and cabbage, boxty, coddle, and colcannon.

Not all seafood is equal and consumer choices do make a difference for ocean life. The Safina Center has helped consumers discover the connection between a healthy ocean, fishing, and seafood since 2003.
Visit our searchable Healthy Oceans Seafood Guide for color-coded ratings for popular, wild-caught seafood. Just type in the fish you want to learn about – common or sushi name.
Our goal is to increase consumer understanding and preference for sustainably caught seafood. We also encourage seafood industry retailers, chefs and restaurateurs to implement sustainable seafood practices.
In 2014, we took our partnership with the Monterey Bay Aquarium Seafood Watch® program to a new level in order to provide consumers with even more sustainable seafood recommendations. The Safina Center and Seafood Watch are now using the same science-based criteria and methodology to rate seafood species. Now our seafood ratings list contains seafood species rated by both The Safina Center and Seafood Watch. These ratings are determined by evaluating each species' abundance in the wild, how well the fishing is controlled and managed, and how the fishing affects other species and habitats. We also include health advisory information to alert consumers to contaminants and mercury in some seafood.
Each rating takes months of research to condense dozens of scientific and government reports. Additionally, each report is peer reviewed to ensure each rating is accurate and up-to-date. Our work is transparent, authoritative, and easy for consumers to understand and use. Our oceans and fisheries are dynamic; to ensure accuracy and provide you with the most relevant recommendations, we only publish ratings that are up to three years old.
