2003 Chevrolet Silverado 1500 ReviewThis car review is specific to this model, not the actual vehicle for sale.
Substantial changes improve one of the best.
Chevrolet's full-size pickups get an edgy new look this year. Silverado's aggressive stance is jolting for drivers used to conservative-looking Chevy pickups, but it's an evolutionary change and one that was needed. We'll get used to it.
Hidden beneath are considerable changes. Chevrolet Silverado boasts more than 40 major changes for 2003. Some you'll notice, such as the interior refinements. New audio and climate controls are easier to use and more sophisticated, the latter available with well-designed digital controls. Other changes are harder to discern, but are important from reliability and engineering standpoints, such as the all-new electrical system that eliminates thick bundles of wires and hundreds of connections. V8 engines offer improved throttle response and reliability and reduced emissions, while V6 engines deliver better performance and reduced emissions. (Some of these changes were actually made mid-cycle to the 2002 models.)
Chevy Silverado continues to be one of the best full-size trucks available. It shares that crown with the similar GMC Sierra. Boxed and hydroformed frame rails give the GM trucks a strong, rigid platform. Silverado is a highly capable truck. It rides, handles, and stops as well as, maybe better than, the best of them. It's quick and it's comfortable. These are still full-size work trucks, however, so don't expect a Cadillac ride.
Technology is really improving life with full-size pickups. Quadrasteer, GM's heavy-duty four-wheel-steering system, eases parking and maneuvering in tight places. StabiliTrak, an anti-skid system, improves driver control in avoidance maneuvers and on slick surfaces. Heated seats, a Bose stereo, XM Satellite Radio and other options make long days spent in a Silverado a little more comfortable.
Like all full-size pickups, Silverado is available in a vast array of versions: two-wheel drive and four-wheel-drive; standard-length regular cabs, extended cabs, and crew cabs; short (6-1/2-foot) and long (8-foot) bed lengths. Three trim levels are available: base, LS, and LT. Full-width Fleetside beds are standard, but retro Sportside beds are available for selected models.
Payload capacities vary. The 1500 series offers payloads ranging from 1593 to 2334 pounds (depending on bed, cab, and drive configuration). The 2500-series models offer payloads in the 2600- to 3200-pound range.
Silverado 1500 models are available with a 4.3-liter V6, 4.8-liter V8, or 5.3-liter V8. 2500 models and the 1500 HD Crew Cab are powered exclusively by the 6.0-liter V8. The 1500 HD model combines light-duty 1500-series styling in a heavy-duty six-passenger crew cab with a 300-horsepower Vortec V8. (2500HD and 3500 models are covered in a separate New Car Test Drive review.)
Silverado SS is a special high-performance model equipped with a high-output Vortec 6000 designed for exhilarating off-line acceleration. SS gets a unique high-performance Z60 chassis package, 20-inch wheels and tires, full-time all-wheel drive, a lower, wider stance, and special exterior and interior trim.
Options include XM Satellite Radio, which provides CD-quality broadcast of 100 digital channels coast to coast, a Bose sound system. Crew Cab models offer a Panasonic DVD Passenger Entertainment System and rear-seat audio controls. OnStar is also available, which puts a human being at your assistance at the press of a button any time of day. OnStar operators can unlock your doors remotely and the system automatically calls for assistance if the airbags deploy.
Passive safety features: A passenger-sensing system automatically deactivates the passenger-side frontal air bag under certain conditions to protect children. Dual-level frontal air bags are designed to provide an appropriate amount of inflation based on the severity of the crash. Active safety features include four-wheel anti-lock brakes (ABS) on all models. Auto4WD improves traction and stability of four-wheel-drive models on slippery roads.
The 2003 Chevrolet Silverado shares its aggressive new design cues with other Chevy trucks. It looks similar to the Avalanche sport-utility truck, but the TrailBlazer SUV and even the big Express van sport the new look. The upcoming replacement for the S-10 compact pickup, called the Chevy Colorado, will sport a similar look.
Most noticeable are the new headlights, which angle down at the top, making them look like knitted eyebrows. The grille features a large band running across the middle with a big gold Chevy bow tie in the center. It's all smoothly integrated into the front end with the redesigned headlamps. Silverado's new aerodynamically styled hood suggests power and strength and works with the headlights for an almost menacing appearance. Front tow hooks and fog lamps are recessed into the front bumper.
Along the sides are new front fenders, new body side moldings, and a new wheel line-up. In back, bulging taillamps boast a fresh design that maintains the Chevrolet family look yet clearly identifies it as a new Silverado. Models with Quadrasteer have bulging rear fenders.
The doors and door openings are large. Extended cabs come standard with four doors, though rear doors only open about 90 degrees. Big door handles make getting in easy. Puddle lamps mounted beneath the big side mirrors light the ground along the sides of the truck, handy in the woods and in the city. Those mirrors are also available with redundant turn signal indicators, warning drivers alongside or in the blind spot that you're moving over. Running lights on the roof, tailgate, and leading and trailing edges of the bulging rear fenders on some models add visibility for improved safety. They also look neat.
The bed features built-in tie-down brackets near the four corners. Indentations molded into the bed allow use of boards to form two-tier loading and bulkhead dividers. The Silverado's load floor is 31.6 inches above the ground on 2WD models, 33.7 on 4WD. Short boxes are 78.7 inches long; long boxes are 97.6 inches long. Fleetside boxes are 60.2 inches wide (at the floor); Sportside boxes measure 49.1 inches wide. All boxes are 50 inches wide between the wheel housings.
A PRO-TEC composite box is available for Silverado 1500 Extended Cab Short Box models. PRO-TEC is a nearly indestructible material that's lighter and stronger than steel and resists dents and never rusts. PRO-TEC Silverado tailgates can support a lot more weight than steel tailgates.
The Chevy Silverado is roomy and comfortable. Available in cloth or vinyl, the standard front bench is comfortable and can seat three, giving extended cab and crew cab models capacity for six people. Split 40/20/40, the middle part of the bench folds down to become a center console armrest. There's plenty of head room, leg room, hip room, and shoulder room.
Available bucket seats are comfortable and adjust every which way. Both the premium cloth and the leather are nice. The seats are separated by a deep center console that holds lots of stuff. The top of the lid features a nice rubber-lined indention handy for small items. It would be even better if the rubber would be an insert that could be removed for cleaning. It would be better still if the top of the console wasn't angled forward: Lay a clipboard there and it'll slide off.
A redesigned instrument panel for 2003 includes a large speedometer and tachometer. Smaller gauges to the right display oil pressure, water temperature, fuel quantity, battery charge. Heavy-duty models with the Heavy-Duty Trailering Package come with a transmission temperature gauge on the left. All use highly legible white-on-black graphics. Headlamps and taillamps turn on automatically when it gets dark. A new Driver Information Center is located in the instrument panel cluster that provides various bits of information, including an available engine hour meter.
New stereo systems offer digital controls with large volume and tuning knobs. It's more attractive and more sophisticated than the previous system, but just as easy to use. New dual-zone climate controls are standard. Sliders are used to adjust the temperature on base models with manual controls. Better are the available electronic climate controls, which use two large knobs for driver and passenger. A large LED displays the mode and fan settings. It's a well-engineered system that's sophisticated, yet easy to operate. XM Satellite Radio is a good option for people who want minimal blab interrupting their music or listen to dedicated news or sports channels. Drive across the U.S. without losing your favorite stations.
The back seat in the extended cab offers more room and comfort than we expected. We wouldn't want to ride across the state in the back seat, but three adults can ride in reasonable comfort back there. Most of the time, the back seat is used for cargo. Alternatively, the seat bottom can be flipped up to load gear onto the floor. When cargo capacity is more important than hauling passengers, the entire rear seat assembly can be removed with a wrench and lifted out through the door.
The back seats in crew cab models are roomy and very comfortable, similar to those in a Suburban. The rear seats can be flipped down to provide a big, secure cargo area. This is a great truck for someone who wants a roomy rear seat with interior cargo space and big trailer-towing capability.
Driving Impression
Revised for 2003, the Chevrolet Silverado is among the best of the full-size pickups.
Silverado feels tight and quiet. There's little road noise and wind noise. Those are benefits of the stiff frame, which minimizes noise and vibration from the running gear. The cab is stiffened by a magnesium beam behind the instrument panel and a lateral steel beam between the magnesium beam and the right side of the dash. This additional stiffening is designed to eliminate squeaks and rattles, and we haven't heard any. The chassis rigidity allows the suspension to soak up and manage bumps and ruts and tar strips. A long, 143-inch wheelbase improves the ride further and enhances high-speed stability.
Like most pickups, the Silverado rides more smoothly with weight in the back. At low speeds, our empty 2003 Silverado 1500 LT with Quadrasteer tended to bounce annoyingly when going over a succession of dips. Could it be that the stouter rear end that comes with Quadrasteer rides rougher? If so, we would still opt for Quadrasteer for the maneuverability it offers. The 4-Wheel Steering Package includes a manually selectable ride control system designed to enhance control when pulling a trailer. Press the Ride Control button when the truck is empty and the system seems to firm up the shock damping, which reduces the bouncing somewhat, but the ride becomes harsher. Ride control is probably best used for towing to reduce the tendency of the truck to pogo as the trailer goes over bumps, but it can also be used off road for better suspension control.
Quadrasteer is no gimmick. Four-wheel steering is a great feature on any Silverado for low-speed maneuverability and a must-have for owners who tow. Let's face it. Silverado is a full-size truck in a world of compact parking spaces. Four-wheel steering really helps when maneuvering in crowded parking lots and public garages. With Quadrasteer, an extended cab short box Silverado can turn around in a 37.4-foot circle (curb to curb). Without Quadrasteer, the same model takes 47.3 feet. That's 10 feet, a huge difference. You can make a U-turn in places that previously required backing up. Where turning around on a narrow street is a five-step process in a standard pickup, it's just a three-step process with Quadrasteer. Quadrasteer helps enormously around town, but we think it is truly a must-have feature for towing trailers. When towing a trailer, Quadrasteer will make you look like a star. First, it greatly improves control, eliminating much of that trial and error that occurs when you're not messing with trailers on a regular basis. Second, Quadrasteer allows you to back a trailer into spots where you could not physically do so without it. Chevrolet's ad showing the cowboy backing a horse trailer through a chute demonstrates the benefits well. Quadrasteer increases the 8400-pound towing capacity of Silverado 1500 models with the Vortec 5300 to 8600 lbs.
1500HD crew cab models do not seem to ride as smoothly as the other models. This is most likely due to the 1500HD heavy-duty suspension. When the bed is empty there is some road vibration, but drivers used to driving pickups should find it within acceptable bounds. Throwing some weight in the bed or adding a canopy should smooth it out some. The benefit is towing capacity: 10,200 pounds with a weight-distributing hitch and sway control. The 2500 models also ride rougher than standard 1500 models, but offer a 10,700-pound towing capacity.
Silverado's steering is responsive and offers the right amount of feedback. Silverado tracks straight and handles well on dry pavement, loose dirt, deep dirt, and off road. It's stable on wet pavement and stays true when the rear wheels spin when accelerating hard in a low-speed turn. Rack-and-pinion steering is used on Silverado 1500 4x2s. Four-wheel-drive and heavy-duty models use recirculating-ball steering. Even the rack-and-pinion system has a fairly wide dead spot in the center when cruising, which Ch.
Chevrolet Silverado is among the best of the full-size pickups. Changes for 2003 make it more reliable and more enjoyable to drive every day. Roomy, comfortable seats, a stiff frame, a choice of powerful engines make the Silverado a great work truck. A myriad of choices lets buyers choose the right truck for the lifestyle.

No one would even care that you cant DIRECTLY peel rogue for 3 seconds (although obviously almost any class can peel indirectly).
Lets not forget that subterfuge is great survivability talent which isnt something rogues can spare and it feels very rogueish and not some passive mitigation warrior-like sht.
As for c&d at the current state of the game it doesnt even feel that OP. I mean its possibly too strong on openers but i wouldnt like to drop it while dancing because, well, dance is the only thing that is scary about rogues atm and its not too hard to peel / use sht during those 6 seconds so cnd helping in that department.
I mean, obviously it feels hard because rogues do stupid amount of damage even through defensive cds, but thats not the fault of cnd or subterfuge. Its like... if rogue is lucky he can literally double evis through cds for like 80% of your hp and in this topic people go "ye, prolly subterfuge and cnd are stupid and too op". Ye, sure, its all subterfuge's fault ><

Although the guidelines for access to controlled data are similar for all Medical Sequencing and affiliated programs the specific process for some programs can differ and can require separate DARs. Processes to gain access to controlled data are detailed below.
A list of approved NHGRI medical sequencing projects is listed at Approved Medical Sequencing Projects.
Requesters should access the data via the dbGaP home page (dbGaP). Although dbGaP was primarily created for genome-wide association study data (phenotype and genotype), it is readily adaptable to handling phenotype and sequence data as well. In addition, several sample sets for which GWAS data sets are already available in dbGaP are also subjects of NHGRI MSP efforts.
Those requesting data via dbGaP will be asked to complete a Data Access Request (DAR), which will include a Data Use Certification (DUC) that the requester and institution, represented by an authorized Signing Official, will abide by any terms and restrictions associated with any data set. NHGRI will attempt to enable access to all NHGRI MSP datasets with a single DAR. However, some studies have use restrictions imposed by the original consent forms, and those may have to be requested individually.
To complete the web-based DAR, the requesting investigator and the authorized institution signing official (SO) must have an active NIH electronic Research Administration (eRA) User ID and password. NIH intramural investigators may utilize their NIH directory User ID and password. Visit era.nih.gov for information on creating an NIH eRA account.
Within two weeks of receiving the completed DAR submitted by the SO, the DAC will either 1) Approve, 2) Disapprove, or 3) Postpone data access for the requesting investigator. Requesters approved and authorized by the DAC are designated Approved Users. Approved Users certify that they will abide by the terms and conditions specified in the DUC, including the provision not to distribute MSP controlled-access data in any form to any third parties other than those of their own research staff who have agreed to the terms of the DUC. For collaborative projects, any independent collaborating investigator from a separate institution involved in the use of the MSP data is required to submit a separate DAR. All Approved Users and their institutions will be required to acknowledge responsibility for ensuring that all uses of the data are consistent with federal, state, and local laws and regulations and with any relevant institutional policies.
Approved Users will utilize their NIH eRA User ID and password to authenticate their identity and gain access to the controlled-access datasets. Access rights are granted for one year, subject to adherence to MSP policies. Annual renewal of approved access requires re-acknowledgement of the DUC and a modified Request Form that solicits the same information as a new request plus information about research accomplishments from utilization of MSP data and information about any violations of the terms and conditions for data use. The NHGRI DAC requests the latter information from Approved Users even in the absence of a renewal request.
The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) operates a program-specific Data Access Committee that represents the joint management of the project by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) and the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI).
Please see the TCGA Data Portal for information on TCGA Data Access.

The question in the cluster world is how well 2-socket systems do -- that's still the sweet spot. There's no question that today's single-socket quad-core Intels are great desktop machines -- I just bought a bunch for the new startup that I'm working for (which is building a consumer website.) But for our back-end cluster, our desire for low power consumption and big memory leads us to lean towards Opterons, and if AMD can get their Barcelona launch actually out the door, I think there'll still be a clear advantage for AMD on 2-socket and bigger boards, for most cluster applications. A reseller showed me a new 4-socket quad-core Intel platform; it takes 128 gigs of memory... but you should see the heatsink on the northbridge, and the ducted cooling needed by the fbdimms. And it will cost an arm and a leg. And I shudder to think how bad the STREAM and OpenMP benchmarks will be. -- greg

Google began asking people a couple of weeks ago what they would do if they had Google Glass.
Some people said they would use it in the classroom, create new interactive TV experiences using Glass, and even wear it in the operating room while performing surgery.
Now, JetBlue has come out and said what it would do with Glass, Skift's Rafat Ali reports.
If JetBlue had Glass, they "would continue to help the world view air travel through a whole new lens," the airline company wrote on Google+ yesterday.
JetBlue uploaded some images of what it could like to use Glass in the airport. If JetBlue has its way, we'd be able to use Glass to quickly see if a garage is at capacity and if there are available outlets in the boarding area. We could also get directions to the baggage claim area, and even receive taxi fare estimates.
Check out the images below to see what Glass could look like in the airport.

Tips for Seasonal Pool Owners
When warm weather finally arrives, homeowners with swimming pools find themselves starting the annual process of opening their pool and/or spa for the upcoming season. Here are a few tips from the recreational water experts at NSF International to help you avoid potential problems and ensure your pool opening process goes smoothly:
- Check your supply of water treatment chemicals to make sure you have everything you need. If any chemicals are beyond their expiration dates, replace them before opening the pool.
- Before trying to remove the cover, pump off any standing water and remove as much dirt and debris as possible from the cover as well as from the deck area immediately surrounding the pool. Remove the cover carefully, cleaning it thoroughly and allowing it to dry completely before storing it for the summer.
- Inspect the pool walls and/or liner for any punctures or tears. Scrub and clean the walls as necessary. Inspect the deck area surrounding the pool for any trip hazards and make any needed repairs.
- Remove plugs and reinstall any pumps, filters or other items and fittings that were removed at the end of the previous season.
- Inspect the drain covers and make sure they are properly installed and not broken. Consider replacing older drain covers with newer versions that meet today's anti-entrapment standards.
- Add water to bring the water level up to normal, then turn the power on and start up the system. Check for leaks and make sure the system is operating properly. Restart the circulation equipment and clean the pool.
- Analyze the water quality and add treatment chemicals as needed to adjust the chlorine, pH and alkalinity to desired levels. Refer to the chemical manufacturer's usage instructions or contact a qualified pool supply company if you are unsure how to safely use these products. Monitor water chemistry levels frequently the first few days the pool is open, adjusting chemical treatment as needed until they stabilize. Store chemicals in a secure location where pets and children cannot access them.
- Run the pump continuously at the beginning of the season until the pool water is clear and balanced. The filter may need to be backwashed frequently during the first few days of operation, depending upon how dirty the water became over the winter.
- Reinstall and tightly secure any ladders, railings or other pool equipment such as diving boards and slides. To help prevent unauthorized entry to the pool area, install a self-latching mechanism on the entry gate. Consider installing a pool alarm to notify you if anyone enters your pool without your knowledge, especially if you have small children who could accidentally fall into the pool.
- Check skimmer baskets and remove debris, ensuring the water level is at approximately mid-height of the skimmer weir opening for best surface skimming performance.

Financial inclusion measurement goes mobile
This blog post was originally published on the Microfinance Gateway.
These are exciting times for those of us in the business of measuring financial inclusion. Technology is remaking the financial system every couple of years — and we're adapting the Global Findex survey questions accordingly. Our new data, which we're launching in April 2018, features bundles of new questions on financial services accessed through mobile phones and the internet.
We started collecting data for the first round of the World Bank's Global Findex database — measuring how adults in more than 140 countries worldwide save, borrow, and make payments — in 2010. Back then, our survey asked people about their use of paper checks.
Mobile money was so nascent that we had a few questions about mobile payments, but nothing about mobile money accounts. That came later, with the vastly expanded mobile money module in the 2014 Global Findex.

Presidential popularity polls are of limited value at this stage, and online polls are even less probative than most. Nonetheless, it's interesting that Senator McCain commanded only 5 percent of the support of the nearly 20,000 people who voted in the first round of the Pajamas Media poll. He's doing even worse so far among the 1,000 or so who have voted in the second round. Indeed, he currently trails Fred Dalton Thompson and Ron Paul. Judging by our mail and our forum pages, I can't say that McCain would do much better among Power Line readers.
Mitt Romney edged Rudy Giuliani and Newt Gingrich in the first round and leads in the second round as well. Bill Richardson and Barack Obama are the most popular Dems, in what must be a very skewed version of the "electorate," given the Pajamas audience.

Atmospheric Sciences & Global Change
Research Highlights
March 2014
Bioenergy Crops Resilient to Climate Change, Grain Not So Much
New research links global crop data in climate change model accounting for emissions mitigation
Producing fuel from crops—bioenergy—is expected to be a key component in meeting future global energy demands. Because crop productivity is sensitive to climate, researchers wanted to know how climate projections may affect agricultural crop yields. Even with climate impacts, their research shows a prominent role for bioenergy in reducing carbon emissions in energy production. Rapeseed, pictured, is one source of biodiesel. Image courtesy of Creative Commons License. Enlarge image.
Results: Snap, crackle, pop might be deterred in the future by climate change, according to research from Pacific Northwest National Laboratory and the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research. In a new link-up of crop and global climate models, and a total-system assessment of possible climate futures, they found that climate change will greatly reduce yields of the world's major grain crops. The blow to grain is especially potent in scenarios that include both high greenhouse gas emissions and strong climate change. Yet, despite the effect on grain crops, the research shows that emissions mitigation will not be more costly or difficult, compared to similar scenarios without these agricultural impacts.
"Grass crops grown for bioenergy appear to be resilient to climate change, which is good news for mitigation efforts that may rely on bioenergy crop production and use," said Page Kyle, research scientist at PNNL, working at the Joint Global Change Research Institute, a partnership between PNNL and the University of Maryland.
Why It Matters: Food, water, energy production—the impacts of climate change will affect these and all areas of the economy and human circumstance. So slowing down climate change will involve more than one mitigation strategy. To understand the most effective path to reduce the amount and speed of climate change, scientists are funneling world economic, energy and ecosystem data into integrated assessment models to come up with possible futures. Without a model-based analysis, it would be difficult to gauge the extent that possible emission mitigation strategies are themselves vulnerable to climate change. For instance, a robust agricultural sector will be necessary for a transition toward an energy system that is more reliant on bioenergy and less reliant on fossil fuels. However, if agriculture is strained by climate change, such a transition may not be effective for reducing emissions. In this study, researchers are solving those puzzles, piece by piece. Using unique modeling tools, they are developing a method to conduct this complex analysis between the natural world, the climate and the human factor.
Methods: The study closed a loop of inter-model comparisons conducted in the past five years, in which models of different disciplines passed information amongst each other to generate a coherent picture of the future. Taking into account complexities of interactions among the human and natural systems, the researchers used PNNL's Global Change Assessment Model (GCAM), an integrated assessment model that takes into account all sectors of the economy in producing possible ramifications of proposed climate mitigation strategies. GCAM used the yields from a global gridded crop model (Lund-Potsdam-Jena managed Land Dynamic Global Vegetation, Agriculture and Water Balance Model, or LPJmL), which in turn used the climatic outcomes of a global climate model (HadGEM2-ES), which in turn used the future greenhouse gas emissions from integrated assessment models, of which GCAM was one.
The researchers found negative biophysical climate impacts for major grain crops, particularly in tropical regions. This held strong particularly in scenarios with high emissions and a high degree of climate change. However, bioenergy grass crops look resilient to climate change. This resiliency means that agricultural climate impacts do not pose a serious threat to pursuing greenhouse gas emissions mitigation, which likely will partially rely on bioenergy crop production and use.
Even with climate impacts, the research shows there is still a prominent role for bioenergy in emissions mitigation. However, the climate impacts on grain production will nevertheless require adaptation measures such as increased trade or changes to management practices. Though the study does not assess the uncertainty bounds, which are likely to be large, it develops a method for conducting this type of analysis that will likely prove useful to other researchers.
What's Next? There are three research themes currently under way. The team will increase the number of crop, climate and integrated assessment models used to narrow the range of uncertainty. A second project will improve and harmonize the assumptions in crop and agro-economic models taking into account future agricultural management practices. Finally, researchers are developing a simple set of equations to predict future crop yields for any future level of temperature, precipitation, and carbon dioxide concentrations. The goal is to eliminate the need to run a global gridded crop model to analyze yield impacts.
Sponsor: This research was supported by the Office of Biological and Environmental Research of the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) as part of the Integrated Assessment Research Program. GCAM was developed at PNNL with long-term support from DOE's Integrated Assessment Research Program.

The first army which was equipped with special footwear were the Roman legions. It was called "caligae" and were a kind of sandals, but at the time they offered a great comfort to soldiers.
The first army which was equipped with special footwear were the Roman legions. It was called "caligae" and were a kind of sandals, but at the time they offered a great comfort to soldiers.
It is believed that the clock, as it is known today, was invented in 1300, but there is no exact date for that. Knowledge of time measuring instruments existed since ancient times. Ancient civilizations measured time depending on the movement of the Earth and the Moon: the year and month after its revolution around the Sun (within 365 days), and the cycle of the day-after Earth's rotation around its axis (in 23 hours, 56 minutes, 4 seconds). Since 3500 B.C. Egyptians built the solar clock, the Obelisk. The hours were determined by the shadow it dropped on Earth from sunlight. This helped them to know what time of day it was. Over the time, sundials evolved to more elaborate forms.
Another primitive model of measuring time is the hourglass. That is a vase of glass with 2 compartments. The top has a quantity of sand, water or mercury that flows into the bottom compartment in a certain period of time. The hourglass was used in Europe in the 14th century, when some historians appreciate that personalities of that time acquired the first clocks in their homes.
In fact, history records that, ever since the year 1280, a clock with wheels was invented in England. Such mechanisms functioned in monasteries and cathedrals of the time. However, the first public clock was made and elevated in Milan, Italy, in 1335. People did not have clocks in their homes until the 14th century.
Another important date in the evolution of horologes is 1427, when Heinrich Arnold invented a number of components necessary for the proper functioning of an evolved clock, including the arc, which is especially utilized nowadays.
In 1500 a German locksmith named Peter Henlein began making watches that were small and only had one hand for the hour, and not a minute hand, and did not have glass protection. These watches were the size of a hockey puck and were carried in hand or in the pocket. The minutes indicating hand was invented in the year 1577, by Jost Burgi.
The first swing clock was produced by the Dutch scientist Christian Huygens, in the year 1657 (some historians believe it was the year 1656), which had an error of less than one minute per day, which was a great achievement for that time. The error in time measurement was brought to the stunning result of a second per day, by George Graham, in the year 1721, who improved the accuracy of the pendulum, by offsetting changes caused by temperature variations.
In the year 1775, Abraham-Louis Bregeut set shop in Paris and became horologer to the Kings, having a keen
sense for business. He fused formerly used clock elements together, and invented a large number of his own, one of the chief ones being the tourbillon, an anti-shock device for the balance mechanism.
Today, the time industry is going through an unprecedented boom, each year adding to the number of those attracted to the mechanisms that work with an accuracy to the nearest thousandth of a second. And the fans for whom the clock has become the symbol of "good life" see the tourism to factories and themed museums as an expedition into a world of stories with artisans, mechanisms, hundreds of hours of work, precious gems, real Princes and Princesses.
The main groups have announced significant increases in their turnover. Swatch reported that for the first time in its history it surpassed the threshold of five billion francs (three billion euros), while Richemont announced sales of 4.3 billion euros. But, beneath all the growth reports, beyond the hordes of Asians craving after Swiss watches and after a brand's image, there hides a world that fascinates even before meeting it, and persists in mind after you've met it.
As opposed to times before, when one watch accompanied a person for their whole life, today there are watches for all needs and purposes, from thrifty and disposable to the really well crafted and expensive. To name a few categories, there are Luxury watches and diamond watches which are more jewels that show off the elevated status of their wearer; then there are the Business and Casual watches, also ranging from affordable to expensive; then the so-called Sports watches, which themselves cover a whole range of sub-categories: there are the Military watches (here's a page on the Best tactical watch of the moment), the Aviator watches, the Diver watches, the Running watches (with heart rate sensor), etc. Have a look at these pages for the best aviator watch and the best divers watch. Not least, the most striking distinction in modern times is between mechanical watches and digital or quartz ones. With all this industry pounding out millions of timepieces a year, the fascination with intricate and high performance mechanisms has not disappeared, quite the opposite.
Back to our Swiss watch making tour, the tourist armed with a travel guide and a "Swiss Made" watch should know that the Swiss watch industry is concentrated in the western part of the country, in the interior of the arch formed by the Jura Mountains, between Geneva and Basel. The Swiss promote this area under the brand of "Watch Valley" and have designed special programmes for the tourists who are fans of mechanisms and manufactures.
The point of departure is in Geneva, where watch manufactures appeared for the first time in the mid 16th century. After a brief tour in the old city center, dominated by the Cathedral of St. Pierre, where John Calvin preached, and by Ile Rousseau, a small island on the River Rhône, where there is a statue of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, a visit to the watchmaking Museum means more than watching some simple exhibits. Because here the mysterious links between the characters of Swiss history and clocks are elucidated.
Visiting the Museum, one discovers that the emergence of watch manufactures is due to the reforms of John Calvin who denied jewels, forcing jewelers to turn to the new trade of watchmaker. Calvin was over-obsessed with punctuality and in 1541 he decreed fines for those who were late for the Sunday service. In 1561 clocks were installed in strategic points in Geneva, so that there were no excuses for delays.
By the end of the 16th century, Swiss manufacturers were already famous for the quality of their devices. The industry received an important boost in 1685, when Louis XIV restricted rights to the French Protestant. Thus, they left the country by the thousands and settled in the city of Geneva, bringing with them the know-how of watch production. As a matter of fact, one of the most famous family of watchmakers in Geneva was that of philosopher Jean-Jacques Rousseau.
Moreover, one of the most spectacular pieces in the Museum is a watch that had belonged to the grandfather of Jean-Jacques Rousseau, in the form of a dead head which opened in half to reveal the clock.
The backpack is a type of bag that may be carried on the back by two straps that pass over the shoulders. The person wearing a backpack is usually called a backpacker.
The use of backpacks is often preferred in the place of bags to carry heavy loads over long periods of time, because the shoulders can bear loads better than the hands. Larger backpacks convey most weight to a belt surrounding the hips, leaving the shoulder straps with only the function to stabilize the load. This allows to carry heavy loads because the hips are even stronger than the shoulders and improves agility and balance because the burden lies near the center of the body's mass. In addition, this allows to relief the backbone of the load that can damage it.
The backpack has its origin in prehistory, when the man needed to transport his belongings on his back. Over time this item evolved from the need to carry more and heavier objects. The wars have been large driving forces behind its development, both in design and materials.
There are different models of backpacks, depending on the specific objective: climbing (here's on the climbing essentials), hiking (here's on the best daypack for hiking), travel, military and carrier, to name a few. There are also the so-called hydration backpacks, which are specially manufactured to carry a water container. These have a hose that goes over the shoulder; so, the carrier of the backpack can hydrate easily.
If classified by their function, backpacks can be divided into three main groups:
Cordura, a derivative of polyamide, is the most common material used today for the construction of backpacks/rucksacks, since it has excellent low weight and resistance to abrasion and tear. The most recommended thicknesses range from 500 to 1000 denier.
Through coating with polyurethane, waterproofing of the backpack is achieved, though the seams will always be the favorite waterways to make forays into clothes, sleeping bag and other things that we carry inside. Some light, large and medium capacity backpacks use fabrics such as Kevlar, a fiberglass with great abrasion resistance, for their construction.
Currently, backpacks have replaced the classic school bags in the transportation of books by children. The backpacks are used to carry to school both the textbooks and notebooks, and also other school supplies: boxes, pens, markers, etc. They also serve to carry lunch and other elements such as robes, clothing for gymnastics, sports, etc.
Backpacks are considered a better option than school bags since they allow to evenly distribute weight on the back of the child. It is recommended for them to have symmetric shoulder straps adjustable to fit the height of the child. Both the straps and the part of the pack that rests on the back must be padded to prevent damage to the body of the carrier. The backpack should always be lifted a few inches above the waist of the child. We should likewise avoid adopting forced positions that could cause muscular injuries. The problems that today's children suffer from are caused by the misplacement of the backpacks and the excessive weight that schools require them to transport every day.
These bags or backpacks are those that exceed the capacity of 40 litres and are made of durable material, polyamide. These backpacks are made up of several parts:
Some incorporate solar panels, and are called in this case solar backpacks.

More than 30 young men are on campus this weekend interviewing and participating classroom exercises hoping to become a Lilly Scholar. It is the 33rd year for the scholarship event.
The Lilly Award is a four-year full tuition and room and board scholarship valued at more than $140,000.
The students come from 12 states including Florida, Kansas, New jersey, New york, Mississippi, Virginia, Washington, Indiana and the contiguous states.
Activities got underway Thursday night with a keynote talk from David Shane '70. Each of the students will have a 30-minute interview Friday along with attending classes, meeting faculty and coaches. After a social outing Friday night, the young men will participate in a seminar discussion Saturday morning.
To compete for a Lilly Award, a student must meet at least one of the following basic criteria:• a GPA of 3.5 (4.0 scale)• rank within the top 20 percent of your senior class• an SAT score of at least 1720, or an ACT composite of at least 25
These qualifications determine minimum academic eligibility only. Beyond these, we look at your individual accomplishments and abilities — achievements which may be even more important than your grades or test scores. We carefully consider all outstanding achievements, both academic and extracurricular, and we weigh one significant demonstration of leadership more heavily than casual participation in many activities. Especially impressive are young men who have shown particular initiative, worked independently or innovatively, or made a vital contribution to their school or community.
Six students won the award last year. The winners were: Seth Einterz, Zionsville, IN, Zionsville High School; Jacob Ezell, Indianapolis, IN, Roncalli High School; Jake German, Crawfordsville, IN, North Montgomery High School; Spencer Gore, Parkersburg, WV, Parkersburg South High School; James Morey, Mount Horeb, WI, Mount Horeb High School; Chris Sidebottom, Muncie, IN, Indiana Academy.

Welcome to the new location of the Dead Sociologists' Society at Pfeiffer University! A list of the various theorists, some biographical information, and a summary of their work can be found in the Dead Sociologists' Index, or you can look at the Dead Sociologists Gallery or the original chart from which I developed this.
The idea started a few years ago, after Robin Williams' movie "Dead Poets' Society," of course. I was trying to get my Introductory students interested in the Theory section of a summer school class. As I was reading in another text I came across a table which listed something like "The Major Contributors to Sociology." That was when the idea struck me! I copied the table, changed the title to "Dead Sociologists' Society" and made a transparency of it for my class. That was the original chart listed above. Now it has progressed, with the development of the WWW, into a much larger project than what I had originally anticipated. The WWW is just that -- a WORLD WIDE WEB. For a recent report on some of the problems I have experienced on the Web see "The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly in Cyberspace: Ups and Downs of the Dead Sociologists' Society." This paper was presented in a session on Social Sciences in the World Wide Web at the International Sociological Association, World Congress of Sociology meetings in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, July 27, 1998.
I can't take all the credit for the Dead Sociologists' Society, I just pieced some old ideas together. In order to give credit to where it is due, I have listed my references below. The pics were borrowed from Don Martindale's classic book The Nature and Types of Sociological Theory, mostly from the original 1960 version which is what I cut my teeth on. There is also a second edition which has some of the same pictures with some new ones and an updated text. These are listed below if you're interested in some additional reading.
The other material, which is most of the text that you find here, is borrowed from Lewis Coser's classic work, (which is what I had as an undergraduate) and still one of the best overall sociological theory texts around, Masters of Sociological Thought. It is also referenced below.
The Nature and Types of Sociological Theory by Don Martindale. Boston: Houghton Mifflin Co., 1960.
The Nature and Types of Sociological Theory (2nd Ed.) by Don Martindale. Prospect Heights, Illinois, 1981. ISBN 0-88133-353-0
Masters of Sociological Thought: Ideas in Historical and Social Context (2nd Ed.) by Lewis A. Coser. Fort Worth, Texas: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, 1977. ISBN 0-15-555130-2 (I learned on the original version of this one too, but I am referencing the second edition because it was also updated like Martindale.)
I am in the process of adding to and expanding the Dead Sociologists' Society with some of the original works of the theorists. My goal is to make this a mini-digital library for sociological material. It is a time consuming project, so bear with me as I add more to the Web.

Ischia is the biggest[edit]
Ischia is the biggest island in the gulf of Naples, saying "one of the biggest" is wrong. Thats why im going to change it for the second time... hoping that this edit will persist. Otherwise please tell me wich island is bigger then Ischia. I know just 3 island here: Ischia, Procida and Capri. Thx for your work, bye.
Adding lastminute section[edit]
I would like to create a lastminute section and add in it some link as this http://www.ischiatravelweb.it/lastminute.asp. It is seriusly the cheaper way to sleep in Ischia. Usually the hotels put many offers in this kind of pages. It is a quality service and it wont be spam. Please, tell me what do you think about it.
Well, when I need to travel I usually look for this kind of services about the place I am going to, just to spend less. I think it can be a usefull information for travellers.
About spam in the Holiday House section[edit]
In the Holiday House section I can see 2 suggested apartments but when i tried to add a good hostel it was been erased as spam. I thought that the hostel information that I added could be usefull becouse it is not easy to find a place like it on Ischia, I mean a cheap place for young travellers. I am not the owner and I am not linked to it absolutely.
In this way my question is: which is the meter for judge an holiday house info as spam? Why for exemple the info about Villa Marialuisa wasn't been deleted too?
I want just understand. Thx in advance for your reply.
Well thx Majnoona, it was frustant becouse I was happy to discover it, it is a good place to stay, I visited it becouse a friend of mine was there. I live in Ischia, a touristic place where you can find 300 hotels but i know just 2 hostels and I cant advise 1 of them. I already contributed to make this page with some contents, im not here to spam. Bye all cya soon.
Thanks L.J. for your contibute.

Wall Street's Hubris Meter Ticking Higher
It sure does seem like the animal-spirits switch has been turned back on, Mouseketeers.
M&A is taking off, the Dow is sniffing around its record highs, and the hedge-fund boys are getting seriously brazen. There's so much business out there, the Nasdaq may have to open at 4 a.m. Things are so heady, the gold bugs are being sent back into their caves.
That might overstate it a wee bit, except the hedge-fund part, and nothing illustrates just how brazen they have gotten quite like Carl Icahn's Herbalife gambit. Icahn disclosed he now holds a 13% stake in Herbalife, the nutritional supplements company that is the target of a major short by arch-rival hedge-fund manager, Bill Ackman.
Icahn may indeed think that Herbalife has "favorable long-term opportunities for growth," as he stated in the disclosure. He insisted in an interview on CNBC Friday that the position he's taken in Herbalife is strictly about making money. Yet many in the market surmise that making money is only partially the reason.

Cochlear ear implant with accessories, United Kingdom, 1999
The only way to regain some hearing for many people who are severely or almost completely deaf is a cochlear implant. This surgically implanted electronic device picks up sound using an external microphone. Cochlear implants electrically stimulate the auditory nerve, bypassing the inner ear. They consist of three parts: the internal component implanted in the ear, the headpiece worn behind the ear, and the external speech processor usually worn attached to a belt. Some people in the deaf community argue cochlear implants 'normalise' people with hearing loss. This example was developed by Advanced Bionics UK Limited.

If you've been successful at having orgasms with your man, you know that all the effort is so worth it. Still, there are occasions when you want to speed up the satisfaction. Well, rejoice: "The more you learn about your own body's responses, the more adept you'll be at quickly reaching orgasm," says sexologist Yvonne K. Fulbright, PhD, author of Sex With Your Ex. We asked experts for their best big O tactics. Used individually or all together, they'll help you hit bliss in record time.
- Find Your Tip-Me-Over Tricks
To hasten your orgasms with a guy, first spend a little extra time giving yourself one. Pay attention to your body and mind right before you climax—where you're touching, how much pressure you're applying, which muscles tense up—says sex educator Dorian Solot, co-author of I Love Female Orgasm. Then re-create those same moves during sex for a faster O.
It's also important to cultivate a titillating mood. "Every woman is unique in what she needs to feel—and stay—in a sexual mind-set," says Susan Crain Bakos, author of The Orgasm Bible. "It could be candlelight and soft music, deep breathing, or even porn playing in the background." So, figure out what atmosphere works for you, then set that tone before jumping in the sack.
- Tease Yourself Before He Gets There
One way to ensure faster blastoffs with your guy is to prime yourself before you even see him. "Building excitement throughout the day will keep you in a heightened state of arousal," says Fulbright. Fantasize about what you and your man will be doing later that evening, visualizing every hot detail. "Your body responds to stimulation more quickly if you're already turned on mentally," explains Bakos.
Speaking of stimulation, masturbating just to the brink—but not allowing yourself to peak—ensures that you'll be bursting at the orgasmic seams by the time your man walks through the door. When the two of you hit the sheets, "your body will quickly return to the level of build-up you've already achieved, and your guy can finish you off in a hurry," says Solot.
- Use Hot-Spot-Hitting Power Positions
Most women have two main areas of erotic real estate: the clitoris and the G-spot (to find this dime-size spongy area along the front wall of your vagina, insert a finger and make a "come here" motion with your digit). The quickest way to see stars during sex is to stimulate these zones by way of strategic positions.
Woman-on-top is probably the easiest pose to get you off because you control the angle, depth, and speed and can easily touch yourself. To get clitoral stimulation, grind against his pubic bone. Varying the move may crank up the heat faster. "Gyrate your hips in an oval rather than up and down," suggests Bakos. "You'll tease your clitoris every time you circle forward and your G-spot as you go backward.
"Doggie-style is another quicker-climax pose," says Fulbright. He is angled right at your G-spot, and you receive deep penetration. If he's well-endowed, he will also hit your A-spot—an area some scientists say is above the G-spot, toward your cervix, and that, when stimulated, can trigger an intense orgasm. Plus, if you get self-conscious during sex, facing away from your guy helps you tune out your nerves.
To up the arousal ante even more, squeeze your PCs (the muscles you contract to stop the flow of urine) during intercourse...no matter what position you're using. "Flexing these muscles pulls on the clitoris and vagina, creating more intense friction, which helps give you an easier, stronger orgasm," says Bakos.
- Double Your Pleasure
Zeroing in on the major erogenous areas is crucial, but to hit your high note even faster, multitask. "Anytime you can stimulate more than one spot at the same time, you'll up your all-over excitement, which can push you over the edge sooner," says Fulbright. For example, while he's going down on you, ask him to insert two fingers and do the "come here" G-spot move. Or, spin around into reverse cowgirl, so he can stimulate the back wall of your vagina and you can caress yourself down below.
But, don't just focus on some alphabetical area. Have him touch you all over during the deed: Rubbing your breasts, inner thighs, neck, etc. adds to the orgasm-inducing sensations.
- Turbocharge Your Touches
Sometimes a little "outside" help steps up the pleasurable pace. Adding a dollop of lubricant allows your hot zones to be continually, directly stroked without causing painful friction.
Erotic electronics also can accelerate your climax. It's simple math: Vibrators offer more strokes per second than hands do. If you're worried about your guy's ego, try a finger vibe that slips over one of his digits and enhances, rather than replaces, manual moves. To send feel-good tremors through both your bods, place a bullet-shaped buzz buddy at the base of his penis when you're on top, and grind against it.
When you peak faster, your guy can cross his finish line sooner, too. So, do what works to speed up your orgasm—ultimately, it benefits both of you.

It's described as the "Warm Heart of Africa," referring to the friendliness of the people. Established in 1891, the British protectorate of Nyasaland became the independent nation of Malawi on July 6, 1964. After three decades of one-party rule, the country held multi-party elections in 1994 under a provisional constitution, which took full effect the following year. National multiparty elections were held again in 1999 and 2004, electing present president Bingu wa Mutharika.

Making A Difference In The Community Through Music
The original Police Band was formed in Salford after the funeral of a police officer in 1877. Following the amalgamation with the City Of Manchester Police in 1968, and the subsequent creation of Greater Manchester Police in 1974, the band has grown into an acclaimed 40 strong Symphonic Wind Band, coupled with an outstanding Marching Band who undertake many high profile parades and public ceremonies.
Ten years ago our highly successful Swing Band was formed playing music made famous by many of the great big bands including Glenn Miller and Count Basie. We now boast six vocalists, George Pinnington, Chief Inspector Clara Williams, Sean Perkins, Andrew Fenton, Helena Hornby and Hilary Marsden, all of whom bring a variety of popular music to our many audiences. Music from Shirley Bassey, Aretha Franklin, and Tina Turner to Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, and Michael Buble, all feature in our Big Band performances.
We now also have a number of smaller groups including a five piece Jazz Ensemble, a Saxophone Quartet, a Dixieland Jazz Quintet, and a team of Ceremonial Fanfare Trumpeters. All these groups play regularly at many GMP events, formal civic ceremonies, both private and corporate functions, together with supporting a whole range of community engagements.
Our separate bands and ensembles are in great demand. On the creation of Greater Manchester Police in 1974 the band consisted of 35 full time police officers who undertook engagements all over the country on behalf of the force. Now with more than 50 volunteers including serving and retired police officers, together with support staff, professional musicians, teachers, and members of the wider community, our members all give up their time to represent the force.
The band is jointly coordinated and is managed by Mr Barry Frost, a retired police officer and band member for some 15 years. Barry plays the Soprano, Alto, and Tenor saxophones within the Symphonic Band, Big Band, and our smaller groups.
We aim to make a difference in our community through music. All aspects of our band are also available for hire for any public, private, charity or community events.

DUCKS vs. VANCOUVER
Faceoff: 7:30 p.m., Honda Center
TV/Radio: FSW/830-AM
Update: Top-line center Ryan Getzlaf said, "I feel good about (playing today)," after returning to practice Tuesday after sitting out the third period of the Ducks' victory Saturday over the Phoenix Coyotes plus all of their win Sunday over the Detroit Red Wings because of a lower-body injury. Getzlaf, who was injured when he blocked a shot in the second period Saturday, has a team-leading 53 points, including 23 goals. His career-high of 25 is in jeopardy. The NHL-leading Ducks (35-8-5) have won seven in a row and 17 of their last 18. They are a league-leading 19-0-2 at home. Goaltender Jonas Hiller has won 14 consecutive starts, matching the second-longest streak in league history. The Canucks are 24-14-9 after a bruising 1-0 loss Monday to the Kings.

Is this Program for You?
Dental Hygiene might be a good fit for you if you enjoy science, working with your hands, are comfortable interacting closely with people and possess keen attention to detail. Areas of study include organic chemistry, anatomy & physiology, nutrition, pharmacology and fundamentals of dental hygiene. Graduates generally work in private dental offices or in public settings such as public health clinics, universities, schools, nursing homes and oral research facilities.
Admission is selective and highly competitive. The program seeks motivated students who are dedicated to a career in the dental hygiene field. Applicants are advised to explore all aspects of a dental hygiene career and to work in the dental field prior to applying to the program.
Note: The educational environment contains multiple latex products and exposure to potential blood borne pathogens and that all treatment conforms to current infection control standards designated by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and the United States Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA).
Career Opportunities
Dental hygiene offers a dynamic and challenging career. As a licensed health care professional, the dental hygienist becomes an integral part of the dental team to provide patient care. A dental hygienist works with individuals and community groups to achieve optimum oral health. The range of services performed by hygienists varies from state to state and may include cleaning and polishing teeth, taking and developing x-rays, administering local anesthetics, placing and contouring dental fillings, educating patients about oral hygiene, and providing additional preventive dental care. Opportunities for part-time work and flexible schedules are common and salaries are high, making dental hygiene an exceptional career choice.
In addition to treating patients directly, dental hygienists may also work as educators,
researchers, administrators, and in business. Positions are available in various settings,
in the United States and abroad. Clinical dental hygienists may work in a variety
of health care settings such as private dental offices, schools, public health clinics,
hospitals, managed care organizations, correctional institutions, and nursing homes
or in a corporate environment. In addition to the clinical role, dental hygienists
may also work in an administrative capacity in any of the above locations.
While dental hygiene is a rewarding profession, it is physically demanding and involves repetitive motion. This may exacerbate existing neck, back, wrist, and other physical problems. In order to increase awareness of the specific challenges presented by the program and the profession, applicants are strongly encouraged to review the essential requirements for this program before beginning the pre-requisite studies.
Note: The educational environment contains multiple latex products and exposure to potential blood borne pathogens and that all treatment conforms to current infection control standards as designated by the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and the United States Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) . Confidentiality of information pertaining to the health status of all individuals is strictly maintained at all times.
Degrees in Dental Hygiene
Students with an AS/AAS in Dental Hygiene may earn a Bachelor of Science degree in
Dental Hygiene from Eastern Washington University at Lake Washington Institute of
Technology (LWIT). This is an innovative and new way for graduates of the Dental Hygiene
program to earn a Bachelor's degree while working part or full time as clinical dental
hygienists. The classes are held in the evenings/weekends on the LWIT campus and online.
A minimum of 61 upper-division credits is required beyond the associate degree, and 45 of these credits must be earned from Eastern Washington University. The Eastern Washington Degree Completion Program typically takes two years; however, graduates can choose to finish it in one year.

As part of the announcement, Garber said the team will play its inaugural season in 2015 in an interim home. The club's new management will continue MLS' discussion with the city about building a new stadium in Flushing Meadows Corona Park, but will explore other sites as well.
"The league has been engaged in this process for close to a year with the city of New York on trying to reach agreements in Flushing Meadows Park," said Garber. "At the same time, we were looking to secure an ownership group and we are here today proudly announcing Man City and the Yankees.
"The ownership group will look at what we've been able to present to them as a relate to pushing Flushing Meadow Park and try to see if that deal is one that makes sense, but only after they have gone out into the community to do the kinds of things the Yankees have done in the Bronx," added Garber.
Currently the football club is not only looking to make New York a house but a home as well. This means the NYCFC is looking to have a positive relationship with the public.
"This is not only about finding a place to build a stadium, this is about finding a home," said Ferran Soriano, CEO of MCFC. "We want ew York City FC to have a home. That means basically that first and foremost listen to people. Listen to the community. Listen to the stakeholders and make sure whatever we build, we are embraced by the community and we become family",
While groups opposed to the stadium are still worried about the stadium deal in Flushing Meadows, news that alternate sites would be explored was welcome.
"We welcome Major League Soccer to New York City," read a statement by the Fairness Coalition of Queens. "We are pleased with their new willingness to consider other sites in New York. The proposal for a stadium inside the heart of Flushing Meadows-Corona Park is deeply flawed and would irrevocably damage a vital community resource.
Until the club has a permanent home it will play at an interim venue, and it is possible that will be Yankee Stadium. Other sites could include Red Bull arena or Belmont Park.
"At this point it's premature to comment on any temporary venues," said Garber. "We've got work to do to assure that we've got the right temporary facility for them to hit the ground in 2015, so more to come on that in the months ahead."

OK kids, the new Super Friends: the Legendary Super Powers Show DVD hits stores today and on it they have a nifty little feature on the Super Powers toyline. The fun part of all this is that I'm one of the on-camera talent involved (alongside luminaries such as Mark Waid, Georg Brewer, Paul Levitz and Gerry Conway), and also recreated the logos and graphics for WB to use. Additionally, most of the toys shown are from the collection of our very own Julius Marx, who accompanied me to the shoot! I'm a bit glassy eyed though, as I hadn't slept in 2 days and went to LA and back in the same day to shoot this. I kept zoning out during taping, so I'm pleased I come across as semi-coherent.
I'm pleased to say that a fair amount of solid info on the line was included in the doc, although I talked for over 30 minutes in the interview and went much deeper into the subject, including some "4th wave" info that didn't make the cut. But still, it should introduce a new generation of kids to the greatness that is Super Powers and cement its status as the iconic DC toyline.
So what are you waiting for? Go watch it!
