The Detroit Department of Transportation will equip 250 of its buses with a system of eight security cameras each in an effort to curb violence against drivers and riders.
That was among the messages delivered today by Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan during a news conference to introduce Dan Dirks as the city's new transportation director.
He'll be in charge of DDOT and Detroit People Mover operations and be the point man for the city's involvement in the M-1 Rail streetcar project.
DDOT has more than 400 buses, of which about 260 are needed for peak-time operations.
Duggan, Dirks, and Gary Brown, chief operations officer under Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr, along with DDOT union leaders, spoke to reporters and bus system employees this morning at the agency's main garage on Warren.
Dirks was hired by Duggan last week in a move approved by Orr. Duggan said the move was sparked by seeing people waiting for late city buses.
Dallas-based MV Transportation Inc. has managed DDOT since last August under a contract that's set to expire in September.
MV Transportation's Paul Toliver has been DDOT director but now reports to Dirks.
Bus security has been an issue for some time, and there have been a series of attacks on DDOT drivers over the years.
Fifty buses are being outfitted now with the camera system and will be on buses that travel what was termed "the most problematic lines" for incidents fueling 9-1-1 calls. The cameras will be able to film the interior of the bus and around the outside of the vehicle.
The city will spend $3 million for the cameras, which are from Canadian surveillance camera provider Seon. SMART uses Seon bus cameras, the city said.
The city also is forming a 35-officer transit security force and expects to have it in place in 90 days. The police department has provided 10 officers for bus security in the interim, Duggan said.
Brown will oversee the transit security efforts, Duggan said.
The mayor said rider anger at late bus service is directed at drivers, but they typically are not responsible for delays. Instead, it's usually a blend of factors, including maintenance issues, weather and missing drivers, he said.
"It is not fair to vent your abuse at the driver," Duggan said.
Dirks and Duggan said they'll be examine the DDOT system and assemble plans to improve service, route times, maintenance, cleanliness, driver absenteeism, procurement, bill payment and other issues.
"It will be a system that can rate with the best in the country," Dirks said.
They didn't provide a specific timeline for most improvements, other than to impart a sense of urgency.
Dirks said he plans to meet with DDOT riders, employees and city council members to talk about the system.
Any future expansion of the DDOT system won't happen until Dirks proves the agency can meet its current route obligations, Duggan said.
"There are lots of pieces of this system that are not working," Duggan said.
Better cooperation between the Suburban Mobility Authority for Regional Transportation and DDOT also is on the agenda, Dirks and Duggan said.
Dirks, 62, is no stranger to the region: In addition to being a Detroit native, he was general manager of SMART from 1998 to 2007. Duggan ran SMART in the early 1990s.
Dirks most recently ran a transportation consulting company based in Louisville, Ky.

Director Bong Joon Ho looked to Alfred Hitchcock's "Psycho" for minor inspiration in making his breakthrough Oscar contender and genre-bending class thriller, "Parasite." This isn't surprising considering his meticulous rhythm and pacing throughout the voyeuristic masterpiece. "Parasite" stands out for its suspenseful, escalating tension, as the down-on-its-luck Kim family insinuates its way into the wealthy home of the Parks, only to discover they are not alone in trying to scam them for financial security, resulting in a murderous rampage at the end.

Mobile phone history
Do you remember when you bought your first mobile phone? Perhaps you were able to stump up the £3000 needed for a cell phone back in 1985, or perhaps you got mobile when digital came along in the early 90s, or when the first pay-as-you-go service began in 1997? Everyone has their own story.
Despite being as common as a Bic Biro, the mobile phone has remained a highly visible 'badge' product, reflecting its owner's outlook and values. Whether you are a top executive or a teenager, certain phones have been the coolest on the planet for a short space of time.
In recent years, values of early mobile phones have nearly outstripped their cost back in the day. The mobile phone is now also a serious investment as well as an important piece of social history.
New features:

Defence Geospatial Intelligence
The DGI Conference & Exhibition brings together heads of geospatial intelligence, remote sensing, GIS data & mapping, satellite imagery and analysis within the military, governmental, and intelligence sectors. Running for 10 years, DGI is the most international event for the geoint community, attracting 800 professionals from 45 countries. Benefits of attending include:
- Develop relationships with over 800 defence & intelligence professionals
- Discuss sucessful strategies for providing geospatial intelligence support to contigency operations in-theatre and at home
- Hear about the latest ideas for using big data & the cloudin defence intelligence
- Learn about the latest requirements from the world's largest defence organisations
- Understand how others are tackling the Arctic challengeand indentifying collaborative solutions
See more at: http://www.wbresearch.com/dgieurope
DGI 2014 finished the first Defence and Intelligence Survey and thought it would be of interest to you.
This study was conducted in September 2013 with 322
senior-level defence and intelligence professionals from defence and government
organisations worldwide. It was designed to help benchmark the current 'state
of the industry', looking at what their current requirements and concerns are
and where they see future trends heading. We hope these results will bring new
insight to the industry as to precisely what the key decision makers are
focusing on and how they see their budgets shifting.
The survey highlights a challenge faced by virtually all 'big-data'-driven industries: Where to put data and how to use it. 44% of respondents have said that their main requirement for the next 1-2 years is for data to be available in a timely manner. With 66% of respondents planning to invest in new GIS technology in the next 3 years, could we expect a step-change in the industry?

Last year, Davidson declined an invitation to join the Colonial Athletic Association. This week, the Wildcats accepted membership in the Atlantic 10.
Ah, the power of television and men's basketball.
Both the Richmond-based CAA and Newport News-headquartered A-10 represented upgrades from the Southern Conference, a league Davidson joined in 1936. But the A-10 offers greater television exposure and revenue, and a better brand of basketball, a sport in which the Wildcats have long excelled.
"As it turned out, our choice to wait was the right one," Davidson athletic director Jim Murphy said in a media teleconference Wednesday.
The Wildcats are an equally sage choice for the A-10.
First, it keeps the conference in the Charlotte, N.C., market. A member since 2005, Charlotte is leaving the A-10 for Conference USA and the Football Bowl Subdivision.
Second, and most important, Davidson meshes with the A-10's goal of being the nation's best basketball-centric conference — a new Big East that includes Georgetown, Villanova, Marquette, Creighton and A-10 deserters Xavier and Butler figures to bump the A-10 from that perch.
The Wildcats have played in 12 NCAA tournaments, five of the last eight, and are expertly coached by Bob McKillop. Thanks to Steph Curry, they upset Gonzaga, Georgetown and Wisconsin en route to the 2008 Midwest Regional final, where they lost to eventual national champion Kansas by two points.
Less relevant, but cool nonetheless, Davidson reached the East Regional final in 1968 and '69, falling to North Carolina by a combined six points. The Wildcats coach was Lefty Driesell, his top assistant Terry Holland.
Davidson joins the A-10 in 2014-15 — scheduling logistics precluded an immediate move, Murphy said — and combines with 2013-14 newcomer George Mason to soften the blow of losing Xavier, Butler, Temple and Charlotte.
That's where A-10 commissioner Bernadette McGlade and the conference's presidents have excelled: Even as schools have exited for various reasons, they have added the likes of VCU, Mason, Davidson and, albeit for a cup of coffee, Butler.
Five A-10 teams — Saint Louis, VCU, Temple, LaSalle and Butler — made the NCAA tournament this past season, and all advanced, LaSalle to the Sweet 16. That gives the conference 32 at-large bids in the last 16 years.
For all its heritage — the league was formed in 1921 and used to include many current ACC and Southeastern Conference members — the Southern has never received an at-large bid.
"The excitement lies in the challenge," Murphy said. "We really feel like our basketball program can compete at any level. I think we've proven that."
The A-10's recent deals with ESPN, the NBC Sports Network and CBS Sports Network also trump the Southern, as well as the CAA.
Indeed, Davidson president Carol Quillen called those partnerships "an enormous opportunity to enhance our visibility and extend our reach on a national and even international level."
The Southern Conference, meanwhile, is hunting reinforcements in the wake of departures by Georgia Southern, Appalachian State, the College of Charleston and now Davidson. Among the candidates: the Big South's VMI, a Southern stalwart from 1924-2003.
Long story short: While the ACC's recent grant of rights appears to have curbed realignment at Division I's highest levels, fault lines remain elsewhere.
"We'll be 14 (members) in 2014," McGlade said, anticipating Davidson's arrival.
But with the Big East still unsettled and perhaps trolling for some combination of Saint Louis, Dayton, Richmond and VCU, I asked McGlade how confident she is with that statement.
"Obviously there's nothing for sure right now," she said. "I'm well aware of that. … To the best of my knowledge, we'll be 14 in 2014. If the landscape begins to settle down, that would be a great thing. If it doesn't, we'll just be ready for whatever starts to occur."
George Washington's Steven Knapp, chairman of the A-10's council of presidents, echoed McGlade.
"You really can't predict the future, but I think right now we're very happy with the community we've built," he said of his fellow CEOs. "This morning we had a conversation with a number of the presidents about this … press conference, and we were practically high-fiving through the telephone."

The state's Citizens Compensation Committee voted today to give lawmakers a fivepercent salary increase. The commission had previously cut elected officials' pay by nearly 25 percent over the last four years.
Former State Senator Gary Hart testified at the meeting in favor of a raise:
"Due to term limits, legislative service is a career interrupter for strong candidates. And if you don't have an attractive and competitive salary we lose many capable candidates."
California legislators are among the highest paid in the country. They earn a base salary of more than $90,000, with an extra $25,000-to-$30,000 in per diem expense income.
The Governor currently makes more than $165,000 -down from $212,000 before the recession.
The pay increase goes into effect in December. It does not impact the state's General Fund.

Lean mean racing machine: Oz Sanchez
Oz Sanchez, one of the world's best para-cyclists, begins his quest for London 2012 Paralympic Games glory on Sept. 5.
Oz Sanchez, one of the most dominant athletes in the sport of para-cycling, issued this warning to his rivals, saying, "I'm definitely not at my peak yet."
"I got the mean part down," he said back in May, "but not the lean."
Those can be even more intimidating words when you take this into consideration: Since winning gold and bronze medals in Beijing four years ago, Sanchez has won five world championships, placed first in the 2011 UCI Para-cycling World Cup Series and claimed two gold medals at the 2011 Parapan American Games. Oh, and during this same time span, in 2010, he finished the Hawaii Ironman race.
He will be representing Team USA at the London 2012 Paralympic Games, competing in the men's individual road race (H4 class) and the men's individual time trial (H4) and the mixed team relay event (H1-4). The Paralympic Games began Aug. 29 and road cycling events start Sept. 5.
When he made his Paralympic debut in Beijing, however, he was not considered to be one of the medal contenders. He had only started hand-cycling competitively in 2006.
"I was a huge underdog for that," said Sanchez, now 36, looking back on his Beijing experience. "Nobody had me on the radar until I won.
"Now, I'm on everybody's list. I haven't lost that race (time trial) since."
Still, Sanchez isn't taking his status as the heavy favorite lightly. Expected to be among his top competitors in London are Ernst Van Dyk of South Africa, who won the gold medal in the individual road race event in Beijing (Sanchez took the bronze in that race) and former Formula One race car driver Alex Zanardi of Italy.
Even with all of Sanchez's success over recent years, he said, "I still have days myself where I'm just like, 'I can't believe I'm throwing it down with these guys.' "
Sanchez, who grew up in Southern California, ran into problems with drugs and gangs. He enlisted in the U.S. Marines, where he said his life took a 180-degree turn for the better. He became part of the Special Forces unit of the Marines and was deployed twice to the Middle East. He decided to transfer to the Navy with hopes of becoming a Navy SEAL, but in 2001, he was involved in a motorcycle accident.
The accident injured his spinal cord and left him paralyzed from the waist down. Through his rehabilitation efforts, Sanchez was introduced to the Paralympic Movement and he started competing in 2006.
He credited the Paralympic program with helping him get through the depression he underwent following his accident.
"Once I started getting active again, started winning races, things like that, then it started bringing me back up," he said.
These days, he works with other veterans in programs to introduce them to adaptive sports and spends much of his time training. In addition to cycling, he often cross trains on a rowing machine and in the weight room. On his chest is a tattoo that says, "Know no limits". He clearly follows that mantra and will continue to do so as he hits the race course in London.
"I'm getting lean and mean, and I'm going to peak just at the right time," Sanchez said. "I'm in better shape than I was in Beijing. I'm going for gold."

SEOUL — A RACK FULL OF IDENTICAL silver bicycles caused me turn my head and pause a moment as I made hurried strides away from my office. With baskets hanging from the handlebars, they looked utilitarian but not sturdy; the bikes' clunky design gave off a shine of cheapness. Their frames were adorned with lettering praising the supposedly clean air of Seoul's Jongno District, and they were locked with identical locks. Briefly considering their proximity to the district office, I was led to an exciting conclusion — these must be public bikes!
Unfortunately, it was the wrong conclusion. I stopped by the Jongno office on Tuesday to ask about registration but ended up speaking with a man who told me the bikes were for use only by civil servants (who likely weren't using them due to a cold snap). He lamented that a program styled after Paris' Velib was a long way off in Seoul. While the government recently announced plans to expand the capital's shoddy network of bike lanes (which are often used by pedestrians, roller-bladers and flippant men and women on scooters), getting together the funding to create such a program would be difficult, he said.
In sharp contrast, the provincial city of Changwon in Korea's far south set up a thoroughly advanced bike-sharing program last year. Citizens can check out bicycles digitally, lock up at dozens of stations around town and feel safe knowing that any medical bills resulting from accidents will be at least partially covered by the municipal government. All of the bikes are also equipped with navigation systems that sit between the handlebars.
It's great that small towns are cutting new pathways towards sustainability, but shouldn't Seoul be leading the way? A big part of the problem is a jumbled mess of roads and merciless traffic, admitted the Jongno employee. Seoul Mayor Oh Se-hoon met with the head of National Geographic Channel Asia to sign an MoU on combating climate change earlier this week. But whether Oh will make any groundbreaking changes to foster a bike-friendly culture in the city remains to be seen. Certainly getting public workers to see the streets from the saddle is a step in the right direction.

BALTIMORE – The UMBC baseball team makes a quick turn-around after yesterday's home contest versus Navy, traveling south to take on East Carolina for three games in Greenville, N.C. this weekend. The Retrievers and Pirates open the series at Clark-LeClair Stadium on Friday at 2:00 p.m. with a doubleheader. The third game has not been set due to inclement weather forecasted in the Greenville area.
UMBC (5-11) rallied for six runs in the final four innings and had the tying run on base in the bottom of the ninth, but could not complete the comeback, falling to Navy, 9-7, on Thursday afternoon at Alumni Field. Junior Jake Barnes (Annandale, Va./Annadale) went 2-for-4 at the plate for the Retrievers, notching his sixth multi-hit game of the year, while driving in three runs.
East Carolina (14-11) blew past North Carolina Central, 12-5, at home on Wednesday to push its win streak to four after sweeping Charlotte on the road last weekend. Ben Fultz collected three hits in the mid-week win, driving in three runs and scoring three as well for the Pirates.
Game one of the series will feature a battle of right-handers as sophomore Riley Stephenson (Frederick, Md./Boonsboro) works for the Retrievers and Jeff Hoffman (0-3, 4.03 ERA) gets the ball for ECU. Stephenson (1-1, 3.18 ERA) was no-decisioned in his last outing as UMBC rallied to defeat conference rival Maine in 12 innings on Sunday.
In game two, senior Mac Gill (Bethesda, Md./Walter Johnson) heads to the mound for UMBC and will be opposed by junior left-hander Reid Love (1-1, 3.12). Gill (1-1, 1.30 ERA) tossed his sixth career complete game on Saturday night, allowing just one unearned run on five hits, as the Retrievers leveled the series with the Black Bears.
The series finale will pit Retriever southpaw Joe Vanderplas (Fairfax, Va./Fairfax/Tennessee) against Pirate righty David Lucroy (1-3, 7.63 ERA). Vanderplas (0-2, 2.74 ERA) fired six innings for the Retrievers last Saturday afternoon against Maine, but took the loss after yielding just two runs on five hits. The sophomore lefty leads the Retriever staff with 11 punch outs, while walking just three batters.
Sophomore Kevin Lachance (Clifton, Va./Centreville) went 2-for-5 against Navy to push his hit streak to seven games and record his team-leading seventh multi-hit game of the campaign. The second-year shortstop is hitting .344 this season while infield partner Mark Esposito (Bethany, Conn./Amity Regional) is also over .300 with a .321 average.
Zach Houchins leads the ECU attack and is hitting .350 (35-for-100) with six doubles and nine walks. Ian Townsend has provided the power for the Pirates, driving in a team-best 20 RBI while blasting three home runs. Bryce Harman has also connected for three round-trippers this season.
UMBC and East Carolina have met once previously on the diamond, facing off in Wilson, N.C. in the 2001 NCAA Tournament. The Pirates shut out the Retrievers, 7-0, as UMBC made its second appearance in the post-season in program history.
- The Retrievers are 2-8 in non-conference games this season and 2-7 away from Alumni Field in 2014.
- The Pirates are 10-6 at Clark-LeClair Stadium this season.
- Lachance is hitting .423 (11-or-26) with five walks and seven runs scored during his streak.
- Esposito is hitting .345 (10-for-29) in ten non-conference games this season.

Title: Jurassic Park 4
Post by: Gregzs on November 24, 2011, 11:37:11 PM
I watched The Pacific and did not once think: "This kid looks familiar."
Joseph Mazzello On Playing Mouse in G.I. Joe 2 and Returning for Jurassic Park 4
The actor that played Tim Murphy in Jurassic Park and made a cameo in The Lost World revealed his desire to see a grown up Tim in the possible fourth film.
Joseph Mazzello recently revealed new details about his Mouse character in G.I. Joe: Retaliation to the Dutch website filmtotaal. As best as I can translate it, he said, "It's something completely different, but I have a lot of fun filming my scenes. I play Mouse, a new Joe with his gun firing bullets and controlling them with a joystick in certain directions can be sent." That is the best I could do with Google translate. But, from what I've also read, basically Mouse will be a brash young Joe who brings technology to the battle.
What follows is an excerpt from Joe's interview with heyuguys.co.uk
And youre currently shooting G.I. Joe 2?
I am. Im on hiatus from that at the moment. Its going great. [Director] Jon Chu is fantastic and we actually went to school together and he texted me one day with a Hey, I have a role for you in my movie, do you wanna do it? I told him that for him Id do craft services and that was how it happened. Im loving it Dwanye Johnson is fantastic. I think you could crush me with his pinky but he wouldnt hes the nicest, most gentle guy. Channing Tatum is so much fun. Weve had a blast on set and going out at night experiencing New Orleans the way its supposed to be done.
So, Jurassic Park 4 There are rumblings and rumours. Have you been contacted, and would you be interested?
I know they are writing it and its been developed right now. The last time I saw Steven was at the Emmys and I put the bug in his ear, I have no shame in that! I said, Hey, let me know when youre doing Jurassic Park 4, ok? If it came around and I was a part of it that would be an absolute thrill. I think it would be a great idea to have Tim grown up and see how that would affect things. Well see, you never know. If it happens itll be the greatest thrill of my life.

Clever Girl! The Making Of The Raptor Suit For JURASSIC PARK
I can't tell you how many times I've watched that scene in the kitchen where John Hammonds (Richard Attenborough) grandchildren, Alexa (Ariana Richards) and her brother Tim (Joseph Mazzello) are hiding, but I can tell you at no time, ever, did I stop and think that I was watching a man in a dinosaur suit. And that my friends is the magic of Stan Winston Studio.
The main suit performer was John Rosengrant, and concept artist Mark Crash McCreery filled in on another suit when a shot required two Raptors. The suit was created by making a body cast of Rosengrant, and then the dinosaur's form was sculpted around that.
For Rosengrant, this was his first major role, he poured everything he could into. He learned to imitate the Raptor's movements by looking at illustrations, and worked with a physical trainer prior to shooting knowing that he would have to be able to hold an uncomfortable position for hours on end. The position, that was a skiing pose, and at times during filming he had to hold it for four hours.
Stan Winston Studio created multiple raptors for JURASSIC PARK, including full-size cable-controlled puppets, half-puppets, insert legs and men-in-suits.
This exclusive "Making of" video, narrated by raptor suit performer, 25-year SWS supervisor & co-founder of Legacy Effects, John Rosengrant, walks you through the evolution of JURASSIC PARK's raptor suits, from first foam fabricated "garbage bag test" to the finished suits that you see in the final film.
John Rosengrant - All of their work can be for nothing if you cant bring that character to life inside the suit. In the past, there have been times when a character we put a lot of care into was not as good as it could have been because the performance just wasnt there. Thats why people who do this work are so often driven to perform in the suits themselves. It is a way to maintain some level of control over what youve created. Being in those suits is so difficult, is such a pain in the ass, you have to be really motivated to do it. You have to have a vested interest in the character; and no one has more of a vested interest than the people who created it. Performers who arent that motivated are going to get fed up with the physical discomfort and the heat and the inability to breathe. Theyre likely to say: Get me out of this stupid thing. Its not working. Of course, it could work you just have to have someone in there who has a higher commitment to making it work.

JURASSIC PARK IV Gets A 2014 Release Date!
2014 is already a big year for movies, and we just entered 2013. Godzilla, Dawn Of The Planet Of The Apes, Transformers 4, The Amazing Spider-Man 2, The Hobbit: There And Back Again and many other big budget films are all set for a summer release that year. Now, we can add another movie to the list: Jurassic Park IV. Universal Pictures has announced that the fourth installment in the popular dinosaur franchise will arrive in theaters June 13th, 2014. While he isn't planning to direct, Steven Spielberg (who helmed the first two installments) is on board as producer. The film will be shot in 3D, which isn't surprising since the original Jurassic Park will be re-released in 3D on April 5th. Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes scribes Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver wrote the most recent draft of the script, and turned it in this week. A director is currently not attached to Jurassic Park IV, but it has been speculated that, since Robopocalypse has recently been delayed, Spielberg could very well return to the director's chair (Despite saying that he will only produce).

Universal picks newcomer Trevorrow to direct "Jurassic Park 4"
LOS ANGELES Hollywood newcomer Colin Trevorrow was named the director of the long-awaited fourth installment of dinosaur movie franchise "Jurassic Park" on Thursday.
Universal Pictures said that Steven Spielberg, who directed the first two movies in the $1.9 billion worldwide franchise, would be the executive producer of "Jurassic Park 4," but he would not direct.
Trevorrow, 36, is little known in Hollywood. He made his feature film directorial debut with the independent time travel comedy "Safety Not Guaranteed," shown at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival, and has made a TV movie and documentary.
Universal said "Jurassic Park 4" would be made in 3D and was scheduled for release on June 13, 2014.
Spielberg announced in 2011 that a fourth film was in development, and speculation had been rife about whether he would direct it.
"Jurassic Park III," directed by Joe Johnston, was released 12 years ago, but its $368 million worldwide box-office take was well below that of the first two films.
The original "Jurassic Park," first released in 1993, will return to U.S. movie theaters in April in a 3D conversion.
Universal, a unit of Comcast Corp, gave no details of casting or the plot for "Jurassic Park 4."

Jurassic World Roars In For 2015
Jurassic Park IV gets a title and release date
Though we all worried when the fourth Jurassic Park film struck a delay and Universal announced it wouldnt make its planned 2014 release, everyone began to breathe easier when a banner announced a 2015 date. Now we know the exact release date June 12, 2015, in the US at least and what it will be called. Welcome, then, to Jurassic World.
What that title means is anyones guess right now at least outside of the core filmmaking group of director Colin Trevorrow, co-writer Derek Connolly, producer Frank Marshall and Jurassic Park warden/executive producer Steven Spielberg but it points to a wider scope this time around. Does that title mean that the dinosaurs get loose on a wide scale? Will we see pterodactyls in the skies over Europe? On the other hand, maybe it just means that this time the park is bigger, in the same way that Disney World is bigger than Disneyland.
Trevorrow and Connolly have been working on the script, which has seen work from Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes Rick Jaffa and Amanda Silver, but they needed more time to develop it before shooting can begin.
Theres no exact date for the start of shooting yet, but everyone involved is working full tilt now, especially since they have to have this behemoth ready for 2015 in 3D... Start your guesses now as to exactly what Jurassic World will involve!

View looking north at London Bridge in Lake Havasu City.
"London Bridge is a bridge in Lake Havasu City, Arizona, United States, that is the reconstruction of the 1831 London Bridge that spanned the River Thames in London, England until it was dismantled in 1967. The Arizona bridge is a reinforced concrete structure clad in the original masonry of the 1830s bridge, that was bought by Robert P. McCulloch from the City of London. McCulloch had exterior granite blocks from the original bridge numbered and transported to America, to construct the present bridge in Lake Havasu City, a planned community he established in 1964 on the shore of Lake Havasu. The bridge was completed in 1971 (along with a canal), and links an island in the lake with the main part of Lake Havasu City."
See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_Bridge_(Lake_Havasu_City)
The United States is one of the most diverse countries on earth, jam packed full of amazing sights from St. Patrick's cathedral in New York to Mount Hollywood California.The Northeast region is where it all started. Thirteen British colonies fought the American Revolution from here and won their independence in the first successful colonial rebellion in history. Take a look at these rolling hills carpeted with foliage along the Hudson river here, north of New York City.The American south is known for its polite people and slow pace of life. Probably they move slowly because it's so hot. Southerners tend not to trust people from "up north" because they talk too fast. Here's a cemetery in Georgia where you can find graves of soldiers from the Civil War.The West Coast is sort of like another country that exists to make the east coast jealous. California is full of nothing but grizzly old miners digging for gold, a few gangster rappers, and then actors. That is to say, the West Coast functions as the imagination of the US, like a weird little brother who teases everybody then gets famous for making freaky art.The central part of the country is flat farmland all the way over to the Rocky Mountains. Up in the northwest corner you can find creative people in places like Portland and Seattle, along with awesome snowboarding and good beer. Text by Steve Smith.

Josh Duhamel and Newborn Axl Spent Sunday Watching Football [PHOTO]
Precious! And no, we're not talking about singer Fergie's husband, the handsome actor Josh Duhamel of 'Las Vegas' fame. We're talking about their newborn son, Axl Jack, born Aug. 29, who might end up a future NFL'er or, at the very least, a football fan.
Duhamel is getting his little guy interested in sports in a super early fashion, something we learned when he shared an adorbs pic of the twosome watching football on Sunday, Oct. 6.
That face! He is so cute and he looks happy to be tucked under dad's protective arm.
Fergie is a lucky lady to have such awesome dudes -- big and little -- in her life.
Axl Jack, who has a rocker's name, is the couple's first child. He is a looker. Clearly, his parents are in love with him. How couldn't they be? We can't stop "oohing" and "aahing" over the lil' guy.
We love seeing Duhamel and little Axl enjoy some male bonding time. Nothing unites quite like the NFL. It's refreshing to see that even a famous actor does what most people do on Sundays, and that's plop on the couch and park in front of the TV to enjoy gridiron action.

Welcome to the first Campaign of age 4, unfortunately not all of the features I had planned are fully completed however everything from age 2 has been implemented. No changes are going to happen during this campaign however there will probably be a few cosmetic items added, such as ads over the next day or two.
Stats from the previous ages of age 2 will be made available as soon as I work out how to import them.

I have today finished most of the first stage of alliances. Currently implemented is a ranking list, alliance profiles and the ability to create, leave and join alliances.
A lot of functionallity is still incomplete, the major thing missing is the alliance base which will feature news and announcements, a wall and member only information about the alliance. The member counts currently don't update either neither is there a script to update the alliance rankings. The final item needed will be adding alliance information to players profiles.
After this first stage there are several other stages to finish such as leader options and making the three alliance types actually do something but I will post more on them as they are implemented.
As the alliances are currently in a state of flux, I may have to deleted some or all alliances as I'm working on implementing things.

Welcome to the age 4 private beta.
The reason you have been invited to take part in this beta test is to try out some new features and test for bugs in a small controlled environment. To this end, there are a few things I would like you to take into account:
All normal foe rules apply to the beta test
The new features in this beta should be kept secret
There may well be bugs, there are incomplete features; some I know about some I don't. I have a bug tracker setup which everyone will get an account on in a few days.
To assist in testing as there are so few players and as an exception to (1) You may create as many accounts as you wish, however do not use these accounts to boost a main account; play each as if it were a single account. It would be a good idea to pick different races, gods and strategies for each account.
Thanks for playing.

Essex's hopes of gaining a substantial first innings lead over Hampshire in their LV= County Championship match failed because of the shortcomings of their middle and late-order batsmen.
A century third wicket partnership involving Ravi Bopara and Jesse Ryder had provided a foundation for a sizeable advantage as they carried the total to 187 but a combination of nagging accuracy and a reluctance of the batsmen to try and seize the initiative saw Essex fall well short of expectation.
Once Ryder departed soon after lunch, only Greg Smith of the remaining seven batsmen managed to reach 20 and that took him just short of an hour to compile.
Essex had started the third day on 70 for one, 176 runs adrift of their opponents, and quickly lost Tom Westley for 37 as spinner Liam Dawson found just enough turn to bowl him.
However, Bopara and Ryder dug in to put Essex in the ascendancy despite Jimmy Adams continually juggling his attack in an attempt to remove them.
For the most part, Bopara was content to defend but at the same time, wasted no time to punish the wayward delivery when it came along, a fact underlined by his 50 containing 10 fours and a six.
Ryder was much more fluent and twice struck Dawson for six and also gathered five fours in moving to his half-century from 74 balls.
The New Zealander had contributed 69 of a 114 partnership when he was bowled by left-arm spinner Danny Briggs, a dismissal that opened the door for the visitors to make steady inroads into the innings.
Ryan ten Doeschate scored just a single before cutting the same bowler to cover point before Bopara's four-and-a-quarter hours at the crease which spanned 254 deliveries was ended when he fell lbw to the medium-paced James Tomlinson for 79 - 54 of those runs coming in boundaries.
Dawson took a fine catch low down at second slip to remove James Foster for 18 and provide Tomlinson with another success, while Graham Napier was trapped lbw playing back to fast bowler Nathan Rimmington for nine to leave the hosts 254 for seven.
Wicket-keeper Adam Wheater then pulled off a low diving catch to get rid of Smith with Rimmington again being the successful bowler leaving Essex 259 for eight while Sajid Mahmood was still seeking to get off the mark when he was bowled playing back to Dawson.
Monty Panesar brought some relief by on-driving Dawson for six to the third ball he faced and had made 13 from a dozen deliveries before Tim Phillips was run out for 12 after attempting a second bye in order to retain the strike.
This left Hampshire only 39 runs adrift and they started off in aggressive manner, the first five scoring strokes all reaching the boundary. However with the overall scores level, they lost Adams, a victim of left-arm Phillips in his first over when caught by ten Doeschate at leg gully for 18.
The visitors though suffered no further setbacks as Michael Carberry (48) and Will Smith (13) took them to the close and an overall lead of 44 runs
Essex all-rounder Smith said: "We didn't really bowl very well tonight and it's going to be hard work tomorrow to bowl them out although it is turning a bit. We need to take a good few wickets early in the first session otherwise it's probably going to be a dull draw."
Hampshire's Wheater added: "I think the first session could be vital for either side. Our guys stuck to their guns well today and the way that Michael Carberry played when we had to start our second innings with almost an hour to bat was exceptional."
Sorry we are not currently accepting comments on this article.

ARTopia brings art to life for AMSET fundraiser
All the way live … Having fun and raising funds is de rigueur when chairing any fundraiser, and the Art Museum of Southeast Texas (AMSET) achieved that goal and then some with the unveiling of ARTopia last weekend. Chairs Melanie Dishman and yours truly (along with creative duo Heather Petkovsek and Elizabeth Waddill) carried the ARTopia theme throughout the evening — from the art, artists and au courant art space to the delicious dinner — and this gala entertained all from start to finish. Front and center was the honoree, art patroness Mary Jane Garth with her fab family — Harriet Garth, Le Ann and Terry Garth, Jessica Whitney, David Garth and twin sons Kit and Tyrrell Garth — and the tons of close friends who were there to honor this deserving and fantastic lady. Adhering to the splashy casual or favorite artist dress theme were a bevy of beauties and gents such as Carol Snowden, Ashley Edson, Stephanie and Bernie Daleo, Laurie Kent, Jessica Malach, Susan and Tim Byrom, Kathy Fisher, Laurie and Curtis Leister, Brian Hampton, Sissy Coffin, Jeff McManus, Rusty Hall, Nathan Jones, Russ Waddill, Martha and Buddy Foxworth, Betty and Sheldon Greenberg, Ann Winslow, Betty Leaf, Billie Russell, Jef Russell, Alison Low, Stephen Roane, Sarah Hamilton, Bryan Lee, Roy Steinhagen, Bill Benning, Ellen and David Reynard, Bel and Kip Lamb, Marilyn and Ed Gripon, Rusty Hall, Ida Pyle, John Scott, Colene and Bob Hansen, Marc McDonald, Ellen Schulz, Vic Reyna, Johnnie and Bill Grantham, as well as Frida Kahlo look-a-likes Casey Winslow, Eve Anderson, Julie Funchess and Gena Geyer Sylvester, who all did the eccentric artist proud. Winners of the best artist interpretation were Kim and David Willard, aka Andy Warhol and Michael Basquiat, with honorable mention going to one-eared Van Gogh Earl Brickhouse. The diverse silent auction generated a healthy profit for AMSET with lucky bidders taking home a Paul Manes print, a crystal vase from For Heaven's Sake and a fabulous George Wentz watercolor among the available items. The French picnic orchestrated by Chef Denson Hilton of Treat America Food pleased the palates of partygoers to rave reviews as they grazed on smoked tenderloin, fried chicken and cupcakes cleverly served on artists' palettes. The highlight of the evening was the unveiling of the tableau vivants (live paintings — an idea conceived by co-chair Madame Dishman several years ago, coming to fruition on this evening). The "paintings" were staged with the help of local artists and costumed by Kelly Draper. At the unveiling guests entered the portrait gallery and were enthralled by the interpretation of Arrangement in Grey and Black: The Artist's Mother by James McNeill Whistler (modeled the museum's director Lynn Castle), American Gothic by Grant Wood (modeled by Barbara Quinn and moi), A Bar at the Folies-Bergere by Manet (modeled Heather P.), The Death of Marat by Jacques-Louis David (modeled by Justin O'Mara), L'Homme au Chapeau Melon-Man in the Bowler Hat by Rene Magritte (modeled by Rob Clark), Self-portrait with Bandaged Ear by Van Gogh (modeled by Jared Fall), and Dr. Samuel Jean Pozzi at Home by John Singer Sargent (modeled by Bryan Castino). After the viewing, dance enthusiasts hit the floor to the sounds of DJ Brocato's heart pumping tunes. With a photopia memoir of the evening, guests will certainly be smiling about this sensational soiree for months to come!
You gotta have a gimmick … Kudos to director Paula Bothe and the cast of "Gypsy" running for the next two weeks at The Betty Greenberg Center for Performing Arts. Playing to a packed house Friday and Saturday evening, audiences were smiling and laughing throughout the performance as the revival of this Tony award winning play unfolded in our fair city. If you want to be entertained for an evening and enjoy the acting, singing and dancing of a whole crew of local talent, make reservations soon for this remarkable interpretation of this classic piece of musical theater. Call the box office at (409) 833-4664 for tickets.
New bottle in town … Partners Don Roger, Claire Bloom, Walter Umphrey and Phil Meaux will unveil their smooth tasty vodka Blue Iguana to the U.S., with the first shipment delivered to Sam's Package Store this week and stocked in Debb's and several other liquor stores in our area very soon.
Candles and cakes… Birthday wishes for Kathi Seewald, Sally Bundy, Mary Margaret Groves, Ann DeCordova, Becky Mason, Jean Moncla, Ann Clary Old, Chris Draths, Debbie Bando-Duit, Will Jenkins, Paul Steinman, Dade Phelan, Tammy Bennett, Blair Foxworth, Lana Portner andMadison Gober.
Until the next RSVP!

Pistachio-Crusted Chicken
This dish, which I created for a special guest of Ms. Winfrey, is one of my most frequently requested new dishes. Everyone asks for seconds, and we have served it over and over again to our guests. If you love the flavors of Asia, this is right up your pad Thai alley. My sous chef, Rey Villalobos, crusts his chicken ahead of time and refrigerates it, which he says makes the crust stay on better. The sauce is my most famous. I've even had people tell me they could drink this sauce. It can be made ahead of time because it keeps well in the refrigerator.
Coconut-Chili-Ginger Sauce
Pistachio-Crusted Chicken
In a food processor, place half of the pistachios, half of the Parmesan cheese, and half of the herbs. Pulse 5 or 6 times until the mixture is finely chopped. Transfer to a bowl. Repeat this step with the rest of the pistachios and combine with the other pistachio mixture.
Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Place flour in another bowl and season it with salt and pepper. Remove chicken from refrigerator and prepare it for assembly. Preheat a large nonstick sauté pan over medium-low heat with a thin coating of grapeseed oil. Remove one breast, shake off any excess buttermilk and dust the breast with flour on each side. Dip only one side of the chicken back in the buttermilk and press pistachios onto that side. Repeat that step with the rest of the chicken. Place chicken in sauté pan, pistachio side down, and cook for 2-3 minutes. Turn and cook the other side for 2 to 3 minutes. Place in the oven to finish cooking for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove, let rest for 5 minutes and then slice to serve with the Coconut-Chile-Ginger Sauce and the LoMein noodles (below).

War, Drama and Continuity
A project called Ancient Greeks/Modern Lives: Poetry-Drama-Dialogue delivers staged readings of key scenes from Homer's Odyssey and selected classical plays, town-hall discussions in theaters, scholar-led reading and discussion groups in libraries, and public master classes in ancient Greek stagecraft to 100 sites across the nation.
The program is the creation of the Aquila Theatre Company Inc., based at New York University's Center for Ancient Studies, produced with NEH support, and in partnership with the Urban Libraries Council and the American Philological Society. Ancient Greeks/Modern Lives, with assistance from the Philoctetes Project/Theater of War, emphasizes outreach to military veterans and their families. Those audiences often find that some of their war-related trauma can find cathartic release in discussions led by carefully trained facilitators about the stresses of post-war alienation articulated by the military characters in classical Greek drama—stresses remarkably similar to contemporary experiences. The enjoyment and practical benefits of relating ancient stories to modern lives are carried to an even wider audience by this project's extensive website.

Combine power and hand tools to improve your joinery skills.
By Thomas J. Macdonald
Pages 24-29
Building a toolbox much like this one was a real turning point in my woodworking career. It was 1999 and I had begun classes at Boston's North Bennet Street School's Cabinet and Furniture Making program. At the time, I was a pretty good carpenter and could build plywood cabinets using power tools, but I was pretty inexperienced when it came to crafting fine furniture. Designing and building a toolbox was one of our first project assignments at school.
The experience was for me way more than a project; it was my introduction to hand tools and more advanced joinery. Years later, I realize just how much this project influenced my woodworking. While building it, I was learning the harmony of using both power and hand tools.
Now, it's one of my favorite projects – and it's featured in season three of my PBS television show, "Rough Cut – Woodworking with Tommy Mac."
If you're new to woodworking, or haven't learned basic hand-tool skills, this project could have a similar influence on you. Don't worry about the joints being a perfect fit. It's a shop project after all.
Mill Your Lumber in Stages
I prepare stock in a couple sessions at least a day apart. This is meant to minimize wood movement while also allowing for it. As a rule of thumb, avoid taking more than 1⁄4″ of wood off of the thickness of a board in one milling. I call the first session "rough mill" because I cut the parts out of the rough board leaving about 1″ over in length, 1⁄2″ over in width and 1⁄8″ over in thickness.
First, flatten one face on the jointer. Check the grain direction of the wood and watch for tear-out. Take off about 1⁄16″ with each pass until the face is flat. Next, straighten one edge with the jointed face against the fence. Make sure the fence is 90º to the bed of the jointer.
When the jointer work is done, move to the planer and make the opposite face parallel (to avoid tear-out, whichever end trailed over the jointer should lead over the planer). Run each part through the planer with the jointed face down. Mill the boards to the sizes in the cutlist plus the overage described above.
Stack the parts with stickers between and align them vertically so each board is supported by the one below it. Leave the boards overnight then repeat the milling process to bring the boards to final dimensions.

So I was wondering if it is possible to stores indexes as variables. I have a question where the user inputs a string such as the fox [who is red] must have left earlier.
The problem is to return only what is in the [] including the brackets and the second question is to get the length of that part. Does anyone know how to do this? I was figuring if I could store the indexOf [ and the lastIndexOf ] stored those values as variables and then used them in a substring method (a,b) but I don't know how to do that or if it's even possible. Thanks

Checking Stats – Like Watching Concrete Dry
When it comes to checking stats too much, (Adsense, Adwords spend, eBay, Neverblue, etc.) I'm probably the worst offender. I usually check them early in the morning for the previous day, some stats after lunch and then do the rounds again before I go to bed.
That's what I plan to do, but it rarely is limited to only those 3 times per day. You might know what I mean. You go to check email and while you're waiting for it to download, you'll just run over to your Google account and see how Adsense is doing or how much you've spent so far today with Adwords. I do that a lot and then I see something and decide to delve a little deeper and find that one of my sites isn't giving me the usual Adsense revenue I'm accustomed to, or I see lots of clicks on one of my Adwords campaigns, better check the CPA company to see if I'm earning more than I'm spending.
Pretty soon I've spent the last hour over-analyzing everything, stressing out about some little anomaly I've run across and I've forgotten I just wanted to check email. Funny thing is, my stats will be the same at the end of the day whether or not I check them every time I download email, wait for a Photoshop file to save, wait for a browser reload after leaving a comment on someone's blog or anyone of a hundred other things where I think I can just "check this one stat here."
It's kind of like waiting for concrete to dry. We had our slab poured early this morning for the extension on our home and it was kind of cool to watch the whole process take place. The concrete came out of the pump looking kind of thin but I was assured that it would set properly, it's just a little thinner than normal so it can be pumped through a hose from the front yard to the back yard.
Even though we have thinner than normal concrete setting right now, no matter how many times I walk out of the home office and go watch it dry, it's still going to cure at the same pace and at the end of the day we'll be able to walk on it. There might even be some weird kind of mental-wave-mind-meld sort of thing going on that actually causes it to cure slower when watched. You know that creepy feeling when someone is watching you.
Maybe this will be a good reminder not to log into my Adsense account 10 times a day.

To get the amount of HCA required to see these wonderful fat fighting effects youd have to eat dozens of Garcinia Cambogia fruits every day.
What weve done with Simply Garcinia is concentrate all that HCA inside a tiny vegetable capsule you take three times a day, before each meal, with a glass of water.
Where Does it Come From. Simply Garcinia is naturally extracted from the Garcinia Cambogia fruit found in India and Southeast Asia for its high concentration of HCA (Hydroxycitric Acid).

Low friction SKF Explorer deep groove ball bearings
With bearings being a relatively small share of the construction costs of a conveyor, the benefits are accounted for during conveyor operations. Taking into account the sheer number and operating hours of idle rollers in bulk conveyors, even a small energy saving may offer significant cost reductions.
Low friction SKF Explorer deep groove ball bearings may also offer benefits to web transport systems where reduced torque is desired.
- Electric motors
- Pumps
- Compressors
- Fans
- Conveyors
- Other applications of medium or light loads are possible
- Lower energy consumption for end customers
- Enables easier building of higher efficiency machinery
- Reduced operating temperature results in increased viscosity that can extend bearing life
- Lower total cost of ownership
- Optimized internal geometry
- Low noise, low torque, long-lasting grease
- Unique polymer cage design

When Penny and I design patterns for Sew-Ichigo we always want to think of some practical uses for them. We always put our creations in the Sew-Ichigo Flickr group and we hope you will do the same! For Penny's The Button It pattern I wanted to use them to make a button card to feature in a generously sized tray to store mini projects.
I used Ayumi's tray pattern scaled up so I though I would share my measurements in case you wanted to do the same. Firstly I printed the Button It pattern a little smaller so the buttons would be 2 1/2" finished size rather than 3"- set your photocopier at 83% for this.
Once I had made 5 buttons using the new Liberty Lifestyle prints and a blank square 3 x 3" of Kona snow, I stamped some fabric with Made in England and Buttons and then sashed them together. There are tips on using stamps here. I did a little extra piecing at the top to get fit the selvedge in but the measurements are the same as below.
I used a single strand of embroidery floss to turn the selvedge circles into tiny buttons and 6 strands of floss to make the buttons look as if they were stitched on to the card.
My final touch at this stage was to use the 6 strand floss to make a single stitch as if a button was missing from the card. The block was sashed all around with 6" wide strips of Essex yarn dyed linen in flax and I trimmed it down so the button card was at an angle, this measured 16" x 20".
I then followed Ayumi's tutorial! I used fusible fleece, Vilene H640 which is the only interfacing I can truly trust not to go wrong! It adds structure and softness and is great for pillows and bags too. I quilted lightly, just following the sashing seam lines on the button cards and a diamond criss cross on the linen. The gusset measured 8 1/2" but you could change this to have lower sides and a wider base.
I top stitched the sides to make it stand up. And then I popped it in the post for Ayumi! It was her birthday present. We can all never have enough storage and Ayumi's tray pattern is so easy to adapt and make a series of trays Russian doll style!
Penny will be sharing another of Ayumi's tutorials; the fabric basket to show you further uses for the patterns and you can buy for 'Button It' and 'Rainbow Rack of Spools' here and here. I am seeing some great ideas coming up in the Flickr group so I fancy sharing a gallery of those soon too!

Nicotine gum and lozenges release nicotine slowly into

Nicotine patches stick to your skin and
slowly release nicotine through the skin into your bloodstream.

The inhaler delivers a puff of nicotine vapor into your mouth and
You can buy nicotine gum, patches, and lozenges without a
prescription. You do need a prescription to buy nicotine inhalers.
Note: Nonprescription nicotine replacement therapy
products cannot be sold legally to people younger than age 18. A doctor may
prescribe one of these products if a person younger than 18 is dependent on
Nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) helps
nicotine withdrawal and craving by supplying your body
with nicotine. It contains about one-third to one-half the amount of nicotine
found in most cigarettes.
People become dependent on the nicotine
in cigarettes because it increases the levels of certain chemicals, such as
dopamine and norepinephrine, in their brains. When people quit smoking, the
levels of those chemicals drop. Their bodies react by having nicotine
withdrawal symptoms such as grouchiness and hunger.
Nicotine from medicines
increases the levels of dopamine and norepinephrine just like nicotine from
cigarettes does. Chemical levels in the brain are kept level so that withdrawal
symptoms are reduced. This can temporarily replace the nicotine that a person got from smoking cigarettes. Nicotine replacement can be used in smaller and smaller amounts until a person no longer needs it.
When you inhale tobacco smoke, the nicotine
in the smoke moves quickly from your lungs into your bloodstream. The nicotine
in replacement products takes much longer to get into your system. This is why
nicotine replacement medicines are much less likely to cause dependence on
nicotine than are cigarettes and other tobacco products.
replacement therapy is safe when used properly. Nicotine by itself is not
nearly as harmful as smoking. Tars, carbon monoxide, and other toxic chemicals
in tobacco cause harmful effects, not the nicotine.
Nicotine replacement therapy is
useful for most people who are trying to quit smoking.
replacement therapy may not be right for you if you are pregnant or have heart
Doctors do not often recommend nicotine replacement
therapy for people younger than 18, largely because the products have been
tested only on adults. The side effects of nicotine replacement therapy for
young people are not well known. If a teen smokes daily and has had withdrawal when trying to quit, sometimes a doctor will prescribe nicotine products.
Using some form of nicotine
replacement therapy doubles your chances of quitting smoking.footnote 1 All forms of nicotine replacement products appear
to be about equally effective when used properly.
Combining the
use of the nicotine patch with another form of nicotine replacement therapy, such as the gum, increases your chances of success. Talk to your doctor before you
combine NRTs.
Your chances of quitting are best when you combine
nicotine replacement therapy with a complete smoking cessation program that
includes setting a quit date, having a plan in place for dealing with
smoking triggers, and getting support from a doctor,
counselor, or support group.
Since all NRTs appear to work equally
well, many smokers choose a treatment based on how easy it is to use and what
possible side effects it may cause. All forms of nicotine replacement have side
effects, but the types of side effects differ across NRTs. Very few people
(less than 5%) have to stop using a nicotine replacement product because of
side effects.
Stopping nicotine replacement therapy abruptly may
cause some of the same withdrawal symptoms that occur when you stop smoking
cigarettes. You are less likely to have withdrawal symptoms if you gradually
decrease the dose or number of uses of the specific therapy each day.
It is possible for a person to become dependent on a nicotine replacement
product, although this is rare.
Side effects of nicotine gum may
Side effects of nicotine lozenges may
Side effects of nicotine patches may
Side effects of nicotine inhalers may
The nicotine inhaler may not be a good choice if you have
a breathing problem, such as asthma, allergies, or a sinus condition.
See Drug Reference for a full list of side effects.
(Drug Reference is not available in all systems.)
If you slip or smoke a little, don't give up. Talk to someone who has quit smoking or to a counselor, to get ideas for what to do. If you are taking medicines or using nicotine replacement, keep doing so unless you go back to regular smoking. Using nicotine medicines and smoking rarely causes you to use too much nicotine. Symptoms of too much nicotine are headaches, nausea, confusion, and vomiting. If
you think you have overdosed, call your doctor right away.
Regardless of the method you use to quit smoking, you may cough more or
start coughing for the first week after you quit. This is not a symptom of
withdrawal from nicotine. It is the result of your body trying to clear your
lungs. This happens whether you use nicotine replacement therapy or not.
With nicotine gum, lozenges, and the inhaler, not taking enough each day is a
common cause of relapse.
Avoid drinking beverages, especially acidic beverages
(such as coffee, juices, and soda pop) for 15 minutes before and after you use
these products. Your body may not absorb the nicotine well because of the acid
in these drinks.
Choosing a form of nicotine replacement therapy is usually a matter of personal choice. If you smoke more than 20 cigarettes a day, or you smoke within 30 minutes of waking up in the morning, use the highest dose of a product, whether it is gum, lozenges, the patch, or a combination of NRT.
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) says it's okay to start using a nicotine replacement
product on your quit date, even if you aren't able to stop smoking right away.
If you find you cannot continue to use one form of
nicotine replacement because of its side effects, stop using that form and try
a different one. Remember, using nicotine replacement products doubles your
chances of quitting smoking.footnote 1
Long-term use of nicotine gum has not been found to be
Nicotine replacement therapy will reduce most but not all
of the
nicotine withdrawal, craving, and other symptoms associated with
quitting smoking.
By the time you finish nicotine replacement
therapy, you will have greatly decreased your dependence on nicotine. You also
will have started to get used to not smoking at the usual times. This will take
longer for people who have smoked for many years. And it may mean using nicotine
replacement products for several weeks or months. Stopping nicotine replacement
therapy too early is a common cause of relapse. When you finally reduce your
nicotine intake to zero, you still may have some symptoms of nicotine
withdrawal. But these symptoms won't last. Using nicotine replacement products
makes symptoms less severe.
Talk to your doctor before you use two
forms of nicotine replacement (such as a nicotine patch and nicotine gum) at
the same time.
Using bupropion and nicotine replacement products
together may work well for some people who smoke. But it should be tried only
under a doctor's care. Your doctor may recommend bupropion alone instead of
using two medicines.

LONDON - A man has died after 35 people, including several children, were found inside a shipping container being unloaded at a dock in eastern England on Saturday morning, police said. Two of the group were taken to the hospital in serious but not life-threatening condition, while others were treated for dehydration and hypothermia. The container was being unloaded at Tilbury docks in Essex from a ferry that had arrived from Zeebrugge, Belgium.
Essex Police said that for the time being they were treating the incident as a homicide investigation. "As a result of the ferry docking, staff at the port became aware of screaming and banging coming from the container," Superintendent Trevor Roe said. Port staff were busy searching other containers from the ferry. No further details were immediately available of how long the group had been inside the container or where they had entered it. Tilbury, on the River Thames, is primarily a bulk cargo and container port. Immigration and health authorities were assisting the investigation, police said.

Boys State Cross Country
Girls State Cross Country
Three in a row! The Monticello boys cross country team convincingly brought home the 1A state trophy for the third consecutive year, while the Lady Bucks came out and surprised by grabbing the second place 1A girls trophy.
Monticello led a strong contingent from San Juan County as local runners dotted the finish line in several races.
The Monticello boys have ample prospects for another trophy next year with only one senior in the top seven. But that senior is a good one, Easton Nielson, who left his stamp on the 1A ranks and the 2013 season in impressive fashion, fashioning an 18 second win to grab individual medalist honors.
Nielson is the first individual boys state champion for Monticello since 1996, when Jordan Jensen led the Bucks to a state championship under the coaching tutelage of Mike Pehrson.
Easton also joins sister Macee (Nielson) Black, who won two individual titles for the girls in 2007 and 2010 and dad RT Nielson, who coached the Buckaroo girls to five state titles in the 1990s.
Easton's 2013 time of 16:41 is the second fastest winning time since 2008. Nielson was a runner in all three state championships for Monticello. And each year he improved dramatically.
After placing 18th as a sophomore in 18:36, Nielson improved to 11th as a junior and lowered his time by nearly a minute to 17:42. He improved another minute his senior year to become the champion.
Two other Buckaroos, Jens Brewer and Sheldon Black, have also run in all three state championships for the Bucks. And two more, Tyler Bird and Kyler LaRose, have been on the last two. Brewer, Black, Bird and LaRose are all underclassmen. See what I mean about ample prospects for next year?
The Buckaroo boys have now won eight state championships overall. The Bucks first won a state championship in cross country in 1979, coached by the legendary Joe Wolfe Davis.
Mark Hugentobler coached the Bucks to two state championships in 1988 and '90. In addition to Pehrson in 1996, Kent Rowley was the coach when the Buckaroos won in 2000. Current coach Jeff Hunt picks up his third consecutive state title.
Sophomore Bailey Goodwine led the Buckaroo gals to that second place finish by grabbing fifth place herself.
She is joined in the top ten by freshman Kendal Harris, who was eighth. Zoe Chadwick (14), Cambria Welch (24), and Nancy Johnson (29) completed the Buckaroo scoring. Also running for the Lady Buckaroos are Ashley Hoggard and Lindsey Crowley.
The win was a strategic one for the Buckaroos, who, before the state finals, set their sights on two-time defending champ Panguitch and last year's runner up Wayne.
Although the Bobcats from Panguitch easily defended their title, taking the top three spots for the second year in a row with the same three girls, the Buckaroos pulled out a close win over Wayne, 67-74 to bring that second place trophy home.
The Ladies from Monticello weren't so much going for time, they were just looking to finish ahead of Wayne. And they did just that as Harris finished one spot ahead of the Wayne second runner, and Chadwick and Welch finished three spots in front of the Wayne third and fourth runners respectively.
The Bucks clinched the second place trophy when Johnson, the fifth placer for the Bucks, finished two seconds and one spot ahead of Wayne's fifth place runner.
The win is the highest finish for the Lady Buckaroos since 2000, when they claimed their most recent state championship with Sanford Randall as coach.
Overall, the girls from Monticello have won 12 state cross country titles, starting in 1982, when Davis coached the girls to six titles in a row.
RT Nielson took over the coaching ranks in the 1990s and led the girls to five trophies, including four titles in a row from 1992-95. His fifth came in 1999.
