Editorial: Laureates indeed
Updated 11:23 am, Friday, November 2, 2012
The University at Albany Foundation has been honoring the Capital Region's most accomplished residents for 33 years now, in times of promise and in times of unease. Their achievements have been seemingly everywhere — in academia, especially science and medical research; in business, particularly economic development; and in contributions to culture, most notably the arts.
It's appropriate this year, with so much attention on the nation's enormous economic divide, that the winner of the foundation's Academic Laureate Award is Katharine Briar-Lawson, dean of the UAlbany School of Social Welfare.
She was presented with that honor at the Citizen Laureate Awards Dinner on Thursday night by the foundation's president, Times Union publisher George R. Hearst III.
Ms. Briar-Lawson's attention to the Capital Region's most vulnerable families represents the continuation of a career that began as a social worker in Harlem. At UAlbany, she has been among the people responsible for the success of the anti-violence program known as SNUG. Her influence and imprint extends, meanwhile, through the dozen books and even more numerous scholarly articles she has written on poverty and unemployment.
Two distinguished Capital Region philanthropists, meanwhile, are every bit as deserving of their Community Laureate Awards. I. Norman Massry's community involvement extends well beyond his role operating his family real estate and property management business. He serves on the boards of St. Peter's Health Partners; The College of Saint Rose, where an impressive arts center bears his family's name; the Saratoga Performing Arts Center and the Jewish Federation, among others.
Mr. Massry's wife, Michele "Micki" Massry, is similarly engaged. Her charitable work has been on behalf of the Daughters of Sarah Foundation and the Hebrew Academy of the Capital District, among other worthwhile causes.
For both of them, the Community Laureate Awards add to a long list of recognition and honors.
It's hard to envision what the region would be like without any of these people. Kudos to all of them, then, with our thanks for enhancing life in this community.

As High-Noon Deadline Passes, Third Point Fires Back At Yahoo Board
Michael Harper for RedOrbit.com
Last week, Yahoo´s largest investor Third Point LLC called out the new CEO Scott Thompson for allegedly lying about his education. Thompson, who has only been in his position since January, has been saying he has a Bachelors degree in computer science for years.Dan Loeb, who heads the hedge fund, discovered this was not true, and asked for further investigation by the board of directors. The board answered Loeb by saying they would look into his claims, but also said not having a computer science degree does not make Thompson a bad CEO.
Loeb responded with a second letter, this time with an ultimatum: Fire Thompson by noon on Monday or they will take further action.
Loeb´s deadline has passed and, true to his word, Third Point has begun the process under Delaware Law to obtain books and records regarding Thompson´s vetting process.
In the letter, Third Point calls for cooperation and transparency, saying,
"Third Point believes that Yahoo shareholders and employees will be best served if the Board accepts responsibility quickly for this latest debacle. If the Directors are truly interested in "working in a constructive manner with Third Point," they should provide answers promptly. We believe that this internal investigation by this Board must not be conducted behind a veil of secrecy and shareholders deserve total transparency."
Should Third Point have their way, they expect to closely inspect Yahoo´s internal records for evidence to further their fight to gain seats on Yahoo´s board of directors. Particularly, Third Point wishes:
• To investigate wrongdoing or possible mismanagement by Yahoo!'s management and/or any member(s) or committee(s) of its Board of Directors (the "Board") in connection with the hiring of Scott Thompson as the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and his appointment to the Board;
• To investigate wrongdoing or possible mismanagement by Yahoo!'s management and/or any member(s) or committee(s) of its Board in connection with the appointment of Peter Liguori, John Hayes, Thomas McInerney, Maynard Webb, Jr. and Fred Amoroso to the Yahoo! board rather than the nominees proposed by Third Point;
• To investigate wrongdoing or possible mismanagement by Yahoo!'s management and/or any member(s) or committee(s) of its Board in connection with the statements by Yahoo! on the afternoon of May 3 that the false filings about Mr. Thompson's educational background were "inadvertent."
• To determine whether Scott Thompson, Patti Hart, Peter Liguori, John Hayes, Maynard Webb, Jr., Fred Amoroso, and Thomas McInerney are suitable to serve as directors of Yahoo!;
• To facilitate communications with other stockholders concerning the matters identified in paragraphs 1 through 4 above, in connection with a proxy contest to replace the current board of directors with nominees proposed by Third Point.
Before this kerfuffle began, most were concerned with Thompson´s performance as he laid off thousands of employees earlier in the year. Also involved in this scandal is Patti Hart, chair of the committee to find Thompson who also lied about her education and degrees.
At 1 PM Eastern, an hour after the noon deadline, shares of YHOO were trading at $15.43.

DALLAS -- Chili's Grill & Bar is downsizing its menu options.
The chain announced Friday it will be slashing what it offers diners by 40 percent, focusing on the brand's core items: burgers, ribs, and fajitas.
Don't worry though, the Presidente Margarita isn't going anywhere.
"Over the years, like many bar and grill chains, Chili's chased consumer trends, expanded the menu and tried to be all things to all guests, therefore compromising execution and resulting in a fuzzy food reputation," the restaurant wrote on its website.
Starting Sept. 18, Chili's will "go back to its roots" and improve the quality of its food by focusing on less options.
"By eliminating 40 percent of our menu, we've reinvested in meatier burgers, ribs and fajitas – the items that we've always been known for," Kelli Valade, president of Chili's, said. "We apologize to any guest who misses a departed dish, but with this bold move we commit to all guests to do a better job of serving our famous food on every visit, in every restaurant."
Chili's Grill & Bar first opened back in 1975 on Greenville Avenue in Dallas. Back then there were only 25 menu options, including burgers, margaritas, and beer. Fajitas were added to the menu in 1986. Then came the famous Baby Back Ribs -- complete with catchy song.
By January 2017, the menu offered 125 options. Now there will only be 75 items on the "less is more" menu at Chili's across the U.S.

About the Book
The critically acclaimed and bestselling author of The Raising returns with a haunting and shadowy thriller about the love between a mother and daughter.
Something had followed them from Russia.
On a snowy Christmas morning, Holly Judge awakens, the fragments of a nightmare—something so important that she must write it down—floating on the edge of her consciousness.
Something had followed them from Russia.
It was thirteen years ago that she and her husband, Eric, went to Siberia to adopt the sweet, dark-haired child they had wanted so desperately. How they laughed at the nurses of Pokrovka Orphanage #2 with their garlic and superstitions, and ignored their insistent warnings. After all, their fairy princess Tatiana—Baby Tatty—was perfect.
As the snow falls, enveloping the world in its white silence, Holly senses that something is not right, and has never been right in the years since they brought their daughter home. Now Tatty is a dangerously beautiful, petulant, and often erratic teenager, and Holly feels there is something evil lurking within their house.
She and Tatiana are alone. Eric is stuck on the roads, and none of the other guests for Christmas dinner will be able to make it through the snow. With each passing hour, the blizzard rages and Tatiana's mood darkens, her behavior becoming increasingly disturbing . . . until, in every mother's worst nightmare, Holly finds she no longer recognizes her daughter.

Report: Delays in roof repairs led to costly damage at HISD campusApril 9, 2014 Updated: April 9, 2014 10:03pm
The Houston school district has allowed roof problems at an East End school to linger for seven years despite warnings and repeated leaks that damaged computers, other equipment and recent renovations, an internal investigation confirmed.

Midtown filling need for authentic experience

Texas A&M hopes to end reign of defending champ UNC
Going bold by going bald
The report said the district should have acted sooner to replace the roof at the Rusk School. Staff called in more than 200 work orders since consultants noted high-priority roof needs there in 2007, it said.
Superintendent Terry Grier's administration is asking the school board on Thursday to approve a new roof for Rusk costing $1 million.
"There's blame to go around, and it's frustrating and disappointing to see something like this," said Juliet Stipeche, president of the Houston Independent School District's board. She called for the internal investigation after a major rainstorm in September saturated the weak roof at Rusk, sending water, plaster and ceiling tiles into the newly renovated interior.
In a written response to the report, Robert Sands, who oversees the construction and facilities department at HISD, apologized for the "unacceptable occurrence" at Rusk.
The district had patched the roof at Rusk over the years, but didn't start securing a contract for more extensive repairs and a partial replacement until 2013. The storm hit before any significant work began.
Repeated reports of leaks at Rusk should have prompted quicker, more serious action, according to the investigative report from the Office of the Inspector General.
Preventable damage
The report, obtained this week through a public-records request, described a "disconnect" between the maintenance and construction departments. Even as concerns about the roof increased, contractors started renovating the school's office area and nearby hallways without ensuring the roof was sealed.
"The water damage to the newly renovated interior and equipment could have been prevented," said the report from John Gerwin, the construction audit manager, and Jeanine Hopkins, senior construction auditor.
The cost to clean up and replace equipment after the storm came to $114,000 and was covered by insurance, according to HISD officials.
Joel Falcon, the district's general manager over maintenance from June 2012 through this January, said in an interview that he repeatedly told the bond construction department that the Rusk roof was in need of more extensive repairs.
"There was always - I'm not going to say finger-pointing - but maintenance would say, 'That's a bond item,' but the bond folks would tell the principal that maintenance will take care of that," Falcon said.

'Roof leaks like a sieve'
In response to questions, the district noted that Sands recognized the need for major roof work at Rusk a few months after taking over the department in October 2012. That December, the board approved an extra $600,000 for a partial replacement of the roof. That work was delayed because of scheduling issues with the contractor, HISD said.
Minutes from construction meetings of contractors showed rising concerns about Rusk's roof as far back as April, the investigation found.
"The roof leaks like a sieve at any amount of rainfall," state notes from July. "We can't turn the power on with the leaks still occurring," says an August report.
Irma Villanueva, the mother of a third-grader at Rusk, said she had heard for several years that the school was to get a new roof. She hopes this time is different. Since her son was in prekindergarten, she has seen problems.
"In his classroom, I remember puddles of water or trash cans everywhere," Villanueva said. "Once I realized this wouldn't get fixed, I started complaining. Last year I went along with other parents straight to the district. They gave me the runaround."

Hello, I've just upgraded to Ubuntu 11.10 from 11.04. If I switch the WiFi on (using the buttons Fn + F2), it finds no network. of course my home Wireless network works, as other devices can connect to it - and the same computer could just before the upgrade.
The connection through an Ethernet cable works perfectly, though.
Oh and.. is there any way to revert back to a "classic" menu bar? I don't really like the new launcher, I feel it's confusing (but this is not very important).
Thanks for your help

Please contact firstname.lastname@example.com if you need help installing or using the app.
The Reverb Bigcommerce Sync app will sync your inventory to Reverb.
For us, selling pro audio gear which is related to the musician's community of buyers on Reverb, this app has thus far been plus business for us. We are seeing orders almost daily, and have moved some normally dead SKU's quickly, probably because of a wider base of customers.
I've never used SKU's on our BigCommerce listings, and this app requires unique SKU's to upload and connect items to Reverb. I simply did a bulk product csv export, copied the NAME of each product and pasted it into the SKU field, done. To be sure an item is not listed on Reverb, I simply leave the SKU field blank. If you do use SKU's, you can use CUSTOM FIELDS to turn listings on and off (not an option for us, as I use those for specific info on BC product pages in our design).
We uploaded about 550 items that are generally in stock and a good representation of the most common items we sell in each category.
There are a few quirks, sometimes the order of images for a product are not the same. To fix this I spent part of an afternoon scrolling through our Reverb listings and looking for the odd picture to slide over as the main thumb. Also, Reverb does not allow URL's in descriptions and it will simply delete that text. You may end up fixing up some of your descriptions as a result. Some characters, even apostrophes got replaced by funky symbols on description text also. The rep at Reverb was helpful in removing and fixing the ones we found.
Once your products are uploaded and connected, things like price changes, name changes and description text are uploaded automatically (and quickly) to Reverb from BC. This is great as price changes, adhering to MAP etc are now a breeze as you simply keep BC updated and it sends the info over. Keep in mind new pictures will get added to your Reverb listings, but deleting images on BC listings won't delete them on Reverb at this time.
As far as a company goes, I have to say Reverb is impressive to me. They work very hard to get you settled in. Their payment system costs a little more, but they have their own fraud protection and I'm not too worried about the extra .3% in fees too much. I can't really think of a reason why you would not use Reverb to reach a new community, if it fits your product mix.
This app allows users to sync inventory in Bigcommerce to that of Reverb and vice versa. Our store plans to utilize this for special product mixes such as used and sale items. It eliminates the need for duplicate data entry and makes it easier to keep track of inventory that has sold. It also has a pretty user friendly interface with straightforward setup instructions.
One feature we'd like as a growing store would be the ability to delete categories that are no longer in use. We have unnecessary and unused categories, and hope to see this development in future versions. Tech support was very responsive and helpful when we had issues on our end updating product categories.
Wow. They ignore all requests , and while ignoring us they activate several other stores.

Despite shortages of fuel in the New York City area, barges carrying fuel have been making it to the Port of Albany, said Richard Hendrick, the port's general manager.
"Global (Partners) got a gasoline barge last night," Hendrick said Thursday afternoon. "Sprague Energy has one over there right now."
Some barges and tankers haven't been able to get through the Port of New York, and on Thursday U.S. Sen. Charles Schumer asked the U.S. Coast Guard to reopen the port to petroleum shipping, which had been shut off since Superstorm Sandy's approach on Monday.
The Coast Guard reopened the port with some restrictions, and ships can unload fuel to tugs and barges. While none of the piers in the New York City area are yet open, the barges can move east to the Long Island Sound and north and south of the city.
Some refineries in New Jersey are still inaccessible, Hendrick said.
Gasoline shortages have led to long lines in New York City, and led ABC News to contact Polsinello Fuels in Rensselaer, which on Thursday sent a truck with 4,500 gallons of gasoline to ABC's headquarters.
General Sales Manager Matt Polsinello said he's working to get at least half a dozen more trucks to fleet customers in New York City, from media outlets to construction services and other businesses involved in the recovery.
Supplies of aviation fuel at Albany International Airport were more than adequate on Thursday, according to airport spokesman Doug Myers. The airport in 2006 doubled its storage capacity to 400,000 barrels when it added a new storage tank.

Venezuela to buy arms worth $5 bn from RussiaApril 6th, 2010 - 12:31 pm ICT by IANS
Moscow, April 6 (IANS/EFE) Venezuela will buy new arms from Russia valued at more than $5 billion, Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin has said.
"Our delegation has just returned from Venezuela and the total amount of purchases could exceed $5 billion," Putin said Monday at a meeting here on the development of the country's arms industry.
This includes the $2.2 billion loan that Russia will provide to Venezuela for the acquisition of new Russian weapons, the premier said.
The agreement was reached last week with the government of Hugo Chavez during the visit of a Russian delegation to Caracas.
Venezuela, which since 2005 has purchased $4.4 billion worth of Russian arms, has become the Russian defence industry's biggest customer in Latin America evoking concern from neighbouring Colombia and the US.
Venezuela has already bought 100,000 assault rifles, 24 Su-30MK2 fighter-bombers and 51 helicopters under the agreement.
A plant to manufacture Kalashnikov rifles and another one to make ammunition will also be built.
Venezuela is also planning to buy three Varshavianka-class submarines, 92 T-72 tanks, several BMP-3 armoured vehicles, 10 Mi-28N combat helicopters, Il-114 patrol airplanes and air defence systems, Russian sources said.

To regain full functionailty, I have to stop the car, turn off the engine and lock the car to and then unlock to reboot the system. This has only happened twice so will be difficult to replicate for the dealer. I did take a photo of the display and hopefully will get this sorted out under warranty.

The Metropolitan Police Service is a Ready Organisation
For the UK's oldest and largest police service, Being Ready means using iPads and our increased 4G coverage to spend more time on the beat.
The Metropolitan Police employs thousands of officers and support staff, covering a population of 7.2 million people.
By giving its officers iPads on our 4G network, they've been able to cut administration time, helping to tackle crime faster and boost public confidence. In the first 3 months, officers uploaded more than 1,200 electronic statements and issued 1,400 crime reports. For the first time ever, victims of crime received a reference number immediately.
The officers' iPads are kept secure thanks to Vodafone Secure Device Manager, and with Vodafone managing its mobile devices, IT staff are free to work on critical projects.
"Officers like using them (iPads) and the public likes to see them. It reinforces the idea we are a modern and relevant police force."

Don't Let Loneliness Stop You From Life
July 16, 2009
Loneliness and a stale social life are two common issues that can affect anyone at any age, and at any point in their lives.
As common as these issues may be, we often seem to be at a loss as to what to do about them.
Fortunately, possible solutions may be much simpler than we think. We humans are creatures of habit, and most of us prefer to keep a consistent routine each week. Although our routine may be comfortable, it can keep us locked in a pattern that is unhelpful for our overall emotional and physical wellbeing.
If you find yourself experiencing this, try something different.
Someone once told me that if you want to meet new people and break out of your box, accept any social invitation that comes your way, even to events and outings that you're really not particularly interested in. By doing so we can maximize our contact with other people, diminishing our real and perceived social isolation and exposing us to activities that may normally be outside of what we typically experience.
Why do we repeat the same actions each day, expecting that at some point we will discover a different outcome?
There is a bumper sticker that I have seen several times in the past that I feel really sums up how we can realize change in our life: "To get something you've never had, you will have to do something you have never done."
Don't be happy with what you have simply because it's what is comfortable. Seek out what your heart desires, and grab it with both hands.

Aashish Ghosh spends most of his time thinking about life and other philosophical matters, and he has often been accused of thinking too much. Aashish loves painting and writing and at the same time enjoys reading and watching Japanese anime. When he is not searching for answers to life's difficult questions or expressing his emotions on canvas, he indulges himself in his love for electronics-related projects. In a moment of epiphany, Aashish realized the irreversibility of death and how it wins every battle against mankind. The idea for this book came when he started thinking about how death finally conquers everything – every emotion triggered in man and every quest that defines him. He wrote these stories during his time as an undergraduate student.
There are so many people living around us. We sometimes hear of people who have died, we know nothing about them. And how could we? The End Takes All is a collection of stories that describe the lives of people we may simply pass by. The stories are based on specific events in people's lives: doctors, craftsmen, artists, detectives, friends, children, sons and assassins. The book portrays how people react to their own ends or to the ends of people around them either by passively watching and contemplating it or through the moral battles they are involved in, with their own demons as they play a role in people's deaths. ...Read More

Having problems with your HP Photosmart R707 Digital Camera ?
Everything works....but hit shutter button & it goes dead.

Hold the power button in the ON position for 10 seconds, then release (obviously making sure the batteries are in first). This forces the camera to do a full reset - you will have to set the time etc when it restarts.

Overexposed photos?? when i hit my shutter release button, sometimes the flash doesn't pop up and the view finder goes black. (it's like the camera is taking a picture but when I release my finger from the shutter release button it doesn't release) The only way to "get out of it" is to turn the camera off then back on. when i go to playback...it is a white picture. are my settings messed up and how do i avoid this in the future. Many picture moments are missed because of this!
The view finder "going black" on an SLR is caused by the mirror being up, which is also when the camera is actually taking the picture! The mirror sends the light from the lens to either the viewfinder or the sensor. When it's down, the light goes ... Nikon D80 Digital Camera with 18-135mm Lens

I hit the power button and it turns green for a second but then goes out. The camera and LCD screen do nothing. So I have some sort of power problem.

I transferred my hosting from WordPress to Godaddy a few days ago and after getting all of the posts imported in from the old blog I'm still having trouble in a couple of other areas.
First, none of the users registered to the blog are able to have a post published. We can write a post and hit publish, it will say that it's published in the dashboard but on the actual site itself attempting to visit the link results in a 404 error. The format of the posts are the same as before (ex. http://arcadeheroes.com/yyyy/mm/dd/postname/). Also, with the transfer I had to make a new WP account and I can only login to the new site under that one (arcadehero), if I try using the account that I am writing this post with (shaggycade) on the same login it says invalid username. But I can be logged into that latter account automatically by visiting any WordPress page. It has me a bit confused.
Also on an aesthetic level, I changed themes from Sapphire to Graphene and I cannot figure out how to make my header image link back to the homepage. I've tried tags to no avail and I just want the header at the top, not the text that is grabbed by the PHP header file, which I removed so it wouldn't superimpose against the header. I don't see an option in Graphene to make the image linkable so do I have to modify one of the PHP files in a particular place or just make the header an image map?
The blog I need help with is arcadeheroes.com.

By CHRIS TISCH, Times Staff Writer
Published February 24, 2008
The Tampa Bay area has played a leading role in making the Internet the top source of illegal prescription drugs in the United States.
A few years ago, Tampa Bay had the most illegal Internet pharmacies in the nation. The Drug Enforcement Administration has closed 19 of them.
"It was really ground zero for illegal and illicit distribution of prescription drugs in the country," says Mark Trouville, special agent in charge of the DEA in Florida.
Trouville said none of the nation's top 10 internet pharmacies are now here, but they have popped up in other states and countries.
The pharmacies often split their operations in different locations. They'll have a doctor in one place, a pharmacy in another, a warehouse and distribution center in another. This makes it difficult for local or state police to do anything about them.
"There should be a federal law that covers that," says Jennifer Pritt, of the FDLE's office of statewide intelligence. "You can't just have a hodgepodge of states."
Trouville said Congress is working on legislation that could strengthen enforcement efforts.
Illegal internet pharmacies sometimes use stolen license numbers to fill prescriptions. Or, they may employ doctors in financial trouble to approve prescriptions with a mouse click. The doctors will be paid a few dollars a client.
"If we have a doctor sitting in his attic on his computer screen writing 1,000 prescriptions a day for people he never saw," Trouville says, "is anyone with common sense going to say that's good medical practice?"
New Port Richey resident Dawn Ryan knows the ease of ordering drugs on the Internet.
The 37-year-old mother awoke one morning with back pain and soon became addicted to prescription drugs. She forged prescriptions, then turned to the Internet.
She got OxyContin from an on-line source in Mexico. She never met or talked with a doctor. She simply had to fill out a short form about her medical history. The pills arrived a few days later.
"They just ship them. It's ludicrous," said Ryan, who got clean in treatment after a drug arrest.
Investigators say even a child with a parents credit card can easily order drus on-line.
Says Trouville: "We have brought the drug dealer right into the bedroom."

Bus Rapid Transit
Columbia - Canada - France
Transdev has considerable expertise in Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) projects which are bridging the gap between tram schemes and conventional bus services.
Through dedicated bus lanes and adapted road layouts, intelligent priorities at traffic lights, optional vehicle guidance (optical or mechanical) and seamless integration with the multi-modal system, BRT is the ideal solution for passengers seeking reliable, high-quality service.
Key schemes are already operating in under Transdev's registered rapid transit solution 'BusWay' product.
The BusWay product builds upon Transdev's existing successful tram concept and applies it to a bus network by providing the same quality of service as a tram network. This has been demonstrated In both Nantes and Maubeuge, where Transdev had the mandate to design, build and operate the Bus Rapid Transit systems. In other words, we were responsible for delivering the goals the public authority wanted to achieve through its BRT service developing a close partnership between the local authority and Transdev which is an essential part of Transdev's approach towards public service provision.
Transdev's BRT schemes deliver high levels of priority, accessibility, frequency and comfort, facilitating modal shift and social inclusion.
The BusWay concept is built around six fundamental principles:
- A compelling service offer (high-frequency services, good evening and Sunday provision).
- Full accessibility for everyone both on buses and at stations.
- Dedicated, high quality vehicles with a unique and striking visual identity.
- Well-equipped stations with above-standard facilities such as real time information, excellent lighting and clear signage.
- Priority at traffic lights and where possible, a dedicated right of way.
- Integrated, easy to use ticketing alongside complementary bus and tram services.
BusWay encompasses all the qualities of a tramway at a lower capital cost - a hybrid solution adapted to cities that need to deliver a step-change in public transport provision but don't require the high capacity of a tramway.
In July 2011 Transdev partnered with the Greater Paris Region organising authority (STIF) to launch 'T-Zen' a BRT system with the aim of creating a series of high-capacity, cost-efficient transport corridors linking with the existing infrastructure. With a total project cost of under 85 million euro 'T-Zen' carries up to 2,400 passengers an hour in each direction along the 9 mile route – nearly 35% more passengers than a regular bus route .
Vehicles equipped with the latest Euro 5, EEV engines also feature automatic sliding doors, large luminous windows, wide gangways with comfortable seating, full accessibility, video-surveillance and on-board real-time information screens for a better passenger experience.
A newly-constructed 1,400 m² green depot features a solar panelled roof, natural gas heating and extensive water recycling. In addition, each station offers a 10-20 place secure bicycle parking facility
In the York region of Canada, Transdev work with the York Region Transit Authority to operate a BRT system 'Viva' with ridership of 8.3 million passengers every year. With 115 vehicles operating at 5 minute intervals at peak time, Viva has been recognised as "The most innovative Transit network in North America" by the American Public Transport Association annual awards.
High comfort, air-conditioned and sleek designed vehicles have transformed the bus experience with in-vehicle screens displaying current news, weather, and traffic updates. The modern and well designed stations are equipped with real-time passenger information and ticketing facilities with simple colour-coded routes that are easy to navigate.

Rihanna is really taking the whole fashion thing seriously! The 25-year-old singer is collaborating with British fashion retailer River Island on a third collection for the fall.
The new collection is described as having a "New York Street vibe" for "cool hip girls who aren't super thin." The collection is filled with plenty of leather, basketball jerseys, bomber jackets and high-heeled boots. Our favorite part: Some of the pieces — including panties and oversized jerseys — are emblazoned with "G4LIFE."
Basically, it's all of what RiRi wears on a daily basis.
All three of her River Island collections are definitely more masculine than girly — a direct reflection of her fashion influences growing up.
"As a little girl, I only ever wanted to wear my brother's clothes," she told Company Magazine in 2012. "I grew up with my brothers and [male] cousins so it was only when I met my best friend at 14 and discovered fashion magazines that I got into heels."
"Before that, I always went out in sneakers and pants with a t-shirt rolled up and my cap low. I was never girly," she added.
Rihanna added to Vogue U.K. that she only got into designing to create the sort of looks she couldn't find in stores.
"I just wanted stuff that I want to wear because, at the end of the day, that's what got me into designing, seeing things on the rack that were great, but it could have been a little more 'me,' or fit me a little better, or be a little longer, be a little shorter, or have a little more sex appeal, or a little less sex appeal," she said.
Fans are loving it, too: Her first two collections sold out quickly — and her third will undoubtedly go quickly when it drops on Sept. 14.

Designers Against Child Slavery (DACS) has just put on its second fundraising exhibition, which saw specially created artworks auctioned alongside a fashion show at Red Bull Space in SoHo, New York. Entitled Episodes, the exhibition brings together work by the likes of François Leroy, Ars Thanea, Niklas Lundberg, mydeadpony and Digital Arts contributors Mart Biemans and Rob Shields.
"I started DACS back in 2010 after meeting some people from The Blind Project," says John, a design student living in Columbia, South Carolina. "I'd always known about sex trafficking but I never really did anything about it. There came a point where I couldn't sit by and watch it continue without doing something."
John used his connections to put together the first DACS exhibition in 2010. "After eight months of planning, seeing the gallery packed out with over 400 people was just a dream come true," he says. The exhibition brought together work from Florian Nicolle, Mike Harrison, Maxime Quoilin, Man-Tsun, Sara Blake and Nathan Walker. "Sara's work was very simple and aesthetically pleasing," says John, "[while] Nathan's was disturbing and made you think about the whole issue in a very real light."
Three phases
That first exhibition gave artists a free hand to approach the subject of exploitation within the sex trade as they wanted, but the second provided a more specific brief. Artists were asked to illustrate one of the three phases in the life of a victim of sex trafficking: Coercion, Enslavement and Restoration. That focus has helped them create some powerful pieces, whether distressing or hopeful.
"It's amazing to use design for something other then selling products," John says. "You really get a great feeling from inspiring artists to search for other ways they can use their talents to create a better world."
When we spoke to John, he was concentrating on the exhibition opening, which happened on October 1, but he already had some ideas for where he wants to take DACS next. "Hopefully in 2012 we will have the chance to raise money for art supplies and go [to Bangkok] to teach [art therapy] classes to girls in aftercare facilities," he says.
"I've gotten a lot from DACS over the past two years," he adds. I've met many great people, learned a lot of new things, and heard a lot of amazing stories – but the best part is the sense of purpose." dacsunited.com

Wuthering Heights and the power of love
I had tried to read Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights at least twice before finally getting through it in January. The novel was never assigned to me, that I can recall. But it's one of those books so often referenced that not having read it felt like an absence.

It's always fun to pop into the grocery store for four minutes, then come back out, get in your car, turn, the key, and hear "click, click, click, click…" Oh boy, dead battery. Better call AAA! That's what happened to me the other day. Only I didn't just call the number on the card and sit and wait.
I do have AAA, but I didn't have my card with me that day, so I used the Safari web browser on my iPhone to look up the phone number. I called and reported my location, etc. Then while I was waiting, I Twittered!
But not just about random stuff. I asked if anyone knew how much car batteries run these days. I was pretty sure I needed a new one, but I hadn't bought one in a long time. The AAA representative on the phone said that the person they were sending out could test my battery and sell me a new one and replace it for me if I wanted. I thought that was a pretty cool deal as long as I could be sure I wouldn't be gouged!
I got helpful replies from @enjaysauce, @HaDAk and even @AAAauto. @enjaysauce and @HaDAk told me about how much they run, which I really wanted to know right at that moment. And @AAAauto told me a tech could test my battery and sell me a new one and install it for me, if I so desired. I already knew that, but it was nice to see them on Twitter, checking in on their members!
When the tech got there he ran some diagnostics and, sure enough, I needed a new battery. There was corrosion on one of the posts, and he said my battery should have lasted longer than it did. Who knows why it didn't, but it was a goner and needed to be replaced. The corrosion was just a symptom of some bigger problem with the battery.
So he proceeded to change out my battery, but there was a complication. The corrosion had eaten through the contact that attaches to the post of the battery that carries the charge to the engine. So he very carefully peeled off the contact, which he said was breaking in half like carboard (I believe him, I was watching – in fact, here is a picture!)
Fortunately he had one of those on his truck as well, and was able to replace it without harming any of the wires that go to the contact. It was a little while, but not that long, and he was done!
It was $141.xx for a replacement battery, replacement contact and the labor (which exceeded half an hour, due to the delicate contact-replacement operation). And because of my Twitter-attained knowledge of the price of an average battery these days, I was ecstatic with that amount. I thought it was extrememly reasonable, and I thought the tech did a great job.
To top it off, the tech saw the Blog Solace magnet on the side door of my car (my Vista Print special, which I love), and asked me about it. He said his wife needed a web site and blog built, and he took one of my business cards.
I'd say that was an all-around successful, social media, networking, modern, 21st century car battery replacement experience! Thanks to all my Twitter buddies and the help that day. And thanks to @AAAauto for following up afterwards to make sure everything was taken care of!

NFL executives tackle the Tedford dilemma
Published 4:00 am, Sunday, April 10, 2005
To hear some people in the NFL, the 2005 NFL Draft is as much about Kyle Boller and Trent Dilfer and Akili Smith as it is about Aaron Rodgers and Alex Smith and the other players who actually will be drafted in two weeks.
Call it the "Tedford Factor." That's what some NFL people call it.
Jeff Tedford, the Cal coach, is highly respected for his work with quarterbacks. But some within the league fear that Tedford coaches his quarterbacks so well and has such a good offensive system that they are already as good as they're going to be by the time they reach the NFL.
Since Tampa Bay chose Dilfer with the sixth overall pick in 1994, Akili Smith, Boller, Joey Harrington and David Carr all were Tedford-trained quarterbacks chosen in the first round. Except for Boller, who was the 19th overall selection of the 2003 draft, they all were among the first three players picked in their respective drafts.
None of that group has become a star.
But Carr had a productive third year with Houston's expansion team in 2004 and appears on the verge of a breakthrough, and Boller has improved and should be helped by the Ravens' acquisition of wide receiver Derrick Mason. Harrington faces a critical year in Detroit and Smith was unquestionably a bust. Dilfer's career has been, shall we say, intriguing, but he has a Super Bowl ring.
"Most of those guys are young, and there's so much focus on them because they're first-round draft picks," Tedford said. "They're expected to be great right away, and there's a learning curve in the NFL. The verdict is still out on a few of them."
Ted Tollner, the Detroit offensive coordinator and former 49ers quarterbacks coach, says the knocks he hears about Tedford quarterbacks once were directed at BYU, which produced quarterbacks who had great statistics and fizzled in the NFL.
Then Jim McMahon helped Chicago win a Super Bowl and Steve Young became a Hall of Famer with the 49ers.
"The ones that just were in the scheme, and the system allowed them to have statistics, those are the ones I worry about," Tollner said. "Here, you're talking about a guy (Rodgers) with a strong enough arm, an athlete, he's got all the measurable things that you want.
"The fact that he was in a system that enabled him to produce rapidly, that was a bonus, and he was able to pick it up. It's when those kids are missing either athleticism or arm strength or release, or there are off-the- field behavior things, those are things that sometimes a system can compensate for a guy."
A West Coast scout for an NFC team, however, said Tedford's relatively low-risk offense is able to mask quarterback inadequacies. This is not a majority opinion in the NFL, but a few coaches share it.
"I have never once been told by an NFL guy that there's something holding one of our quarterbacks back because of fundamentals or technique or lack of learning," Tedford said. "They're all competitive; they're all very skilled. We run a complicated offense. They all get them on the (chalk)board before they draft them."
Chris Palmer, the Houston Texans' offensive coordinator -- Carr's coach -- points out the only player in the group already proven a bust was Smith. Another NFL coach says that wasn't Tedford's fault, saying, "Akili just didn't like football, and he never showed up to work at football in Cincinnati."
"Those guys who are factoring Tedford into their grade on Rodgers, it's not fair," said Bill Musgrave, the Washington Redskins' quarterbacks coach. "What are you supposed to do with a guy? You're supposed to get the most out of him. That's what coaching is all about."
The NFL -- well, first, the 49ers -- now must pass judgment on Rodgers, the latest Tedford protege. Tedford says Rodgers has "more natural" mechanics and fundamentals than either Harrington or Boller but cautions that, like all quarterbacks, much of his success will depend on the team he goes to, the offense he's asked to run, and the supporting cast around him.
"The teams that are drafting in those (high) positions are there for a reason," Tedford said.

The purpose of the web was to make the sharing of documents easier. As the web grew, it started offering services that are primarily based on the philosophy of connecting the hyperlinked documents containing information. With the popularity of this new technology and the evolution of internet brought tools that made it incredibly easier for anyone with internet access to publish their documents online.
Bad Structure
A bad structure is when you do a website without planning it first. A web design that leaves the user bewildered as to where they should click next is a bad website design having a poor structure. Your website design should have a reasonable structure. It is wise to first plan your website before actually designing and publishing it to the web. Make sure that you present the information divided into different pages. Each web page should be accessible by a mouse click from other pages. The links should be placed in prominent places so that visitors can find them out. Make sure you provide the information that a visitor to your website might seek.
Inconsistency of Style
Maintaining a consistency between the design styles of different web pages is critical. All your web pages should use the same style rules to display content and links.
Wrong Colors
Whether it is a web design, a logo design, or a building design color is essential. It is a proven fact that human minds react to the colors. A bad combination of a color scheme may scare off your visitors. For example using blue text with a yellow background color is so painful that no one would stay on such a web page for more than a second. Choose your colors wisely.
Broken links
Nothing annoys a web user more than a broken link. Users come to your site hoping to find links that will lead them to the information they seek and move on to somewhere else or take some action. If a web page contains broken links that lead to page not found errors users simply hit backs the home button to search for some other useful website. This may affect the overall search-ability of the website. These should be highly considered by an online marketing company thus it affects the marketing condition of a business. So make sure your links are not broken and are connected to proper sources.
Missing Information
I don't remember how many times I visited websites that offered good content but failed to add some information. For example when you visit a company's website to look for their contact information, and you find out that even though they do have a website, but they forgot to add their contact details there. This is a real annoyance to most web surfers. When planning your site plan to add a page that provides all the necessary information that user may need to contact you or learn more about the website.

Fantasy NASCAR Race Preview: Goody's Headache Relief Shot 500
By Eric McClung
Shaped like a paperclip, Martinsville Speedway is among the oldest and most unique tracks on the circuit. The flat straightaways and sharp turns lead to extreme braking conditions as drivers come screaming into the corners. Patience and timing are the keys to making passes at Martinsville. Drivers that can set someone up and out-brake their rivals going through the turns will find it easiest to get to the front. Those relying on straightaway speed alone will lose their handle and give back their position in the turns more often than not.
Practice sessions: Friday, Oct. 25 at 12:00 p.m. EDT; Saturday, Oct. 26 at 10:30 a.m. EDT, 12:00 p.m. EDT
Drivers to keep an eye on
Jimmie Johnson | No. 48 Lowe's Chevrolet | Hendrick Motorsports
Last week, Johnson was able to get past Matt Kenseth in the Chase standings during an intense finish to an otherwise tame race at Talladega Superspeedway. The five-time champ has a great opportunity to extend his lead at Martinsville, where Johnson has won the last two events from the pole and has totaled eight victories in 23 starts. The No. 48 machine has paced the paperclip for at least 61 laps in five straight and led at least 111 in each of the last three. If you can start Johnson at Martinsville, you always do it.
Kyle Busch | No. 18 M&M's Halloween Toyota | Joe Gibbs Racing
Since 2009, Busch has held an average running position of 10th or better in six of the seven races at Martinsville to go along with four top-five finishes. Rowdy began the Chase with a pair of runner-up performances and three consecutive top-fives before crashing at Kansas Speedway. Busch immediately brushed off the latest of several mishaps at his least favorite track with top-fives in the last two races.
Jeff Gordon | No. 24 Drive to End Hunger Chevrolet | Hendrick Motorsports
Going back to 2003, Gordon owns 11 podium finishes and 16 top-fives over 21 starts at Martinsville. During that span he finished outside of top 10 just twice. Also remarkable: Since loop data was created in 2005, Gordon's average running position has been ninth or better 20 tunes. Coming down the stretch, Gordon checks in with nine consecutive top-15s and seven results of eighth or better.
Dale Earnhardt Jr. | No. 88 National Guard Chevrolet | Hendrick Motorsports
Even though Earnhardt finished outside of the top 20 in the last two Martinsville races, he ran pretty well. In fact, he's recorded an average running position of 12th or better in seven straight and 13 of the last 14. Earnhardt is coming off his second runner-up performance of the Chase and has led multiple laps in every postseason event so far.
Greg Biffle | No. 16 3M Ford | Roush Fenway Racing
Despite poor qualifying results, Biffle has seen his finish improve in five consecutive Martinsville races. The Biff started that run by placing outside of the top 30 and moving all the way up to ninth earlier this season to give him four top-15s in a row. Biffle has been equally solid as of the late with a dozen straight finishes of 16th or better this season.
Clint Bowyer | No. 15 5-hour Energy Toyota | Michael Waltrip Racing
Since 2006, Bowyer has finished 11th or better in 10 of the 13 events held at Martinsville. Earlier this season, Bowyer finished as the runner-up after he led 154 laps in this race one year ago. Bowyer is coming off his third top-10 of the Chase, during which he's only finished outside of the top 15 once over six races.
Brad Keselowski | No. 2 Miller Lite Ford | Penske Championship Racing
Over the last four races on the schedule, Keselowski has finished inside of the top 15 just once. However, that came as a victory in Charlotte Motor Speedway as he continues to be a boom-or-bust driver during this disappointing season. At Martinsville, Keselowski has finished inside the top 10 in three consecutive races with an average running position of fifth on two occasions.
Jamie McMurray | No. 1 McDonald's Chevrolet | Earnhardt Ganassi Racing
McMurray is coming off a victory at Talladega, his first trip to victory lane since 2010. Earlier this season, he finished seventh at Martinsville with an average running position of eighth and recorded the fastest lap a career-best 29 times. If you are short on middle-tier options, Jamie Mac could prove useful for another week.
Temper your expectations
Kevin Harvick | No. 29 Rheem Chevrolet | Richard Childress Racing
Back in 2011, Harvick won the spring race at Martinsville for the first time and put together another top-five during the Chase. Last year he had to settle for a pair of underachieving results, dropping to 19th from the outside pole in the spring and blowing an engine in October. This season Harvick ran well for much of the day but finished back in 13th. Harvick is a decent option but not a driver to be considered given the number of preferred elite drivers to select from.
Denny Hamlin | No. 11 FedEx One Rate Toyota | Joe Gibbs Racing
Hamlin won his four career Martinsville races in a span of six starts from 2008-10, all top-fives that included three victories in a row. A back injury kept Hamlin from competing here earlier in the season after leading double-digit laps in eight straight on the paperclip. The huge downside here is what Hamlin has done over his last 18 starts of the season, which features more DNFs (six) than top-15 finishes (two).

We sat down with heartthrob Rodrigo Santoro (Love Actually, Che) in New York City today to get the 411 on his new movie, There Be Dragons (opening nationwide tomorrow), which the Brazilian actor called, "an epic story about love, faith, betrayal, passion and the power of forgiveness."
In the film, Rodrigo plays a passionate revolutionary anarchist fighting against fascists during a civil war, but in real life the actor is much more laid-back, soft spoken and easygoing. In fact, when we told the humble star that women all around the world consider him a sex symbol, Rodrigo was totally surprised, saying, "Why do they think I'm a sex symbol? I'm used to seeing my face for 35 years. I feel normal. I take it as a compliment. I think it's cool."

Response to Where Would Music Be Without Tori Amos?:
You couldn't be more wrong about The Beekeeper. There is classic Tori GOLD on that album ("the sexiest thing is trust", for instance). I hope you can revisit it someday and really listen; you WILL hear what you were missing.
When a song that you know by heart comes on mid-chorus, and you instantly know that it's the 2nd chorus and what comes next. When one of your favorites comes on in the background, and you love it so much you get goosebumps, and someone notices and asks if you're cold.

Local law enforcement officials announced this morning that the woman who was found dead in rural Ellis County on Tuesday was Angela May Goddard, a 21-year-old Fort Hays State University junior from Russell.
"We are deeply saddened by the tragic and untimely death of Angela Goddard," Dr. Edward H. Hammond, FHSU president, said this morning. "We have contacted her family to offer our condolences and support. Also, our Kelly Center will take steps immediately to provide grief counseling for members of the university community."
The identity of the victim spread by word-of-mouth through the community on Wednesday afternoon, but the university withheld comment pending official confirmation from law enforcement officials, which came early this morning. The death has been ruled a homicide.
"The wrongful death of a young woman is a serious matter, and I commend County Attorney Tom Drees and the local law enforcement agencies for taking careful and deliberate steps to assess the circumstances of the death and make a solid identification," President Hammond said.
"Our university community is devastated by this senseless loss," the president said. "The FHSU Police have assisted in the investigation from the beginning, and the university will continue to cooperate in every way possible."
University officials began preparing for grief counseling on Wednesday when rumors circulated that an FHSU student was involved, and the president said help was being provided for everyone who needs it. He urged that anyone who is having difficulty coping with the loss should contact the university's Kelly Center at 628-4401.

Ancestors Herb in Baden (Germany)
I am searching for information on my anchestors Herb.
My first question: When and where my Great-Great-Great-Grandfather Franz Josef Herb was really born? And did he have more children?
The second question: Did my Great-Great-Grandfather Johann Jakob Herb have more children?
Here are the facts I have:
1. My Great-Great-Great-Grandfather Franz Josef Herb:
Franz Josef Herb, whose profession was bricklayer, was born around 1759 probably in the Allgaeu region. He was a catholic. He married Katharina Sara Schweickart in Leimen near Heidelberg on April 19, 1784 (no children known). Later he married Susanna Katharina Lorenz (catholic, baptized December 28, 1771 in Handschuhsheim near Heidelberg, diedDecember 30, 1838 in St. Ilgen near Heidelberg) in Handschuhsheim on February 2, 1796. Their son Johann Jakob is my great-great-grandfather. I don't know any other children of the family. Franz Josef Herb died in St. Ilgen on February 25, 1819.
Franz Josef Herb had a brother called Anton, who married Eva Barbara Audacher in Nussloch near Heidelberg on February 14, 1792.
2. My Great-Great-Grandfather Johann Jakob Herb:
The bricklayer Johann Jakob Herb is born in St. Ilgen on January 10, 1808 and baptized catholic there on the same day. He married Elisabetha Krafft (born March 7, 1812 in St. Ilgen, baptized catholic there March 8, 1812, died March 16, 1850 in St. Ilgen) in St. Ilgen on October 8, 1838. Johann Jakob Herb died in St. Ilgen on February 24, 1864. Their son Johannes Herb is my great-grandfather. I don't know, if the family had any other children.
3. My Great-Grandfather Johannes Herb:
Sergeant Johannes Herb, who later on served as a revenue officer in Pforzheim near Karlsruhe, was born in St. Ilgen on December 7, 1844 and baptized catholic there on December 11, 1844. He married Wilhelmine Leidner (born November 27, 1849 in Heidelberg and baptized catholic there December 2, 1849, died March 17, 1935 in Pforzheim) in Hemsbach near Heidelberg on September 23, 1873. They had seven children, but only one of them, my grandfather Hermann Ludwig Herb had children himself. Johannes Herb died in Pforzheim on September 3, 1889.
Thank you very much
Georg Herb
