Bribon-Movistar And IMMAC Take Lead In Training Races
27 January 2012
Barcelona January 27th – With British punctuality at 2 o'clock, the Race Committee of the Real Club Nautico de Barcelona, led by Vincent Cespedes, gave the warning signal of the first of multiple starts of the training phase of the third event of the Merchbanc Barcelona Melges 32 Winter Series. Two practice races were completed, one more than what was initially scheduled thanks to a perfect wind conditions.
The first heat was completed under beautiful breeze at 10-12 knots out of the west, which allowed teams to test their strength. After a good start Marc de Antonio's Bribon Movistar with Hugo Rocha as tactician, took the lead followed by the Spanish Gunter, helmed by Javier Sherk and the Japanese of Team Bros, also this time "directed" by Manu Weiller. Great result for Bribon Movistar: victory in the first practice race, which was useful for the whole crew to improve the feeling with the boat.
After two more training starts, the second race of the day went on stage. This time the story changed since German IMMAC took the lead after a struggle with Bribon Movistar and Team Bros. IMMAC finally returns to victory in a race practice, repeating the success already achieved in the first phase of the Merchbanc Barcelona Melges 32 Winter Series in what now seems a distant November.
Starting tomorrow, the fleet means business with the commencement of the first of three windward-leeward races scheduled at 11 am. The show is guaranteed, since Team Bros aim to defend, tooth and nail, their first place position in this first edition of the Merchbanc Barcelona Melges 32 Winter Series. This leadership is closely threatened by Bribon Movistar, "we are sure that the local favourite team will spare no effort."

Did Scott Turow Keep The Copyright On His NY Times Op-Ed About The Importance Of Copyright?
from the questions,-questions dept
While many people pointed out the hilarious irony of Turow and his colleagues using Shakespeare as an example for stronger copyright laws -- since the Bard lived in an era without any copyright laws, and was famous for directly copying the works of many others -- some others noted a separate bit of irony. In taking to the pages of the NY Times to insist on the importance of copyright for authors, or warning that authors may not have incentives to write any more, some pointed out that the standard NY Times Op-Ed agreement involves handing over your copyright on the Op-Ed to the NY Times to do whatever it wants with it.
And, yet, this still seemed worth it to Mr. Turow. In other words, despite his explicit words talking up the importance of copyright as the key motivator for content creation, his implicit actions suggest he knows quite well that there are many, many other incentives to create, and many people -- including himself -- are willing to create even when they do not retain the copyright on their works. As the author of the above linked article, Wendy Kaminer, notes at the end of her piece:
When editors at the Times publish an op-ed stressing the cultural value of copyright protections, it's probably not your copyrights they have in mind.

Muscle Mustangs & Fast FordsNews & Views
Photos: Saleen George Follmer Edition 2014 Ford Mustang
Up Close and Personal
Back in the game and taking the automotive industry by storm, Steve Saleen is introducing three vehicles to add to his Heritage Collection. Of course, the first model is the 2014 George Follmer Edition Mustang edition styled from Follmer's No. 16 1969 Boss 302. The restyled Follmer Edition '14 Mustang made an appearance at the Mustang Club of America's 2013 Grand National "Mustangs at the Mickyard" held at the Walt Disney World Speedway this past weekend.
"We decided that we were going to do a limited run of 250 units each, but that's because most of the Trans Am races were 250 miles," Steve told us, "In particular the Riverside Mission Bell 250, which was the last race with the top 5 drivers Parnelli Jones and Dan Gurney – which we've already done – George Follmer, Swede Savage and Mark Donahue. We've covered iconic cars of that era."
Powering the heart of the beast is a 302 4-valve DOHC V-8 putting out 470 hp and 405 lb-ft of torque. Other modifications include a race tuned "High RPM" intake manifold, high-flow 90 mm throttle body, Saleen shaker hood intake system with low resistance air management, performance intake and exhaust camshafts, 6-speed MT-82 manual transmission and 3.73 gears.
Styling includes a racing style front chin spoiler, GF exclusive '69-style shaker hood, GF edition hood pins, taillight chrome halos and a race-inspired fuel door among many other goodies. The suspension is Saleen's own Heritage Series S4 High Performance Suspension. The exterior was painted to match Follmer's '69 Boss 302 sporting a red, white and black scheme complete with 302 side C-stripes.
There are details on the Mustang that some may overlook at first glance. Look closely at the exhaust and you'll notice louvered exhaust tips. Flip over the floor mats and you'll see embroidered GF Heritage racetrack outlines on each side. You can check out the full list of modifications here at Saleen.com.
Each of the three Detroit auto makers honored with a car from the Heritage Collection include the Mark Donahue Chevy Camaro, that will make its debut in January, and the Swede Savage Plymouth Barracuda, to be introduced next spring. With 250 built of each model, the price is set at $75,000.

No. 1 UConn women end Baylor home streak
WACO, Texas -- Connecticut coach Geno Auriemma was as anxious as anyone to see how his top-ranked Huskies would handle a close game.
They responded in another streak-busting performance.
Breanna Stewart made a short baseline jumper with 10 1/2 minutes left, starting a game-ending 16-6 run after No. 7 Baylor had closed within one point, and the Huskies went on to a 66-55 victory Monday night to snap the Lady Bears' national-best 69-game home winning streak.
"There were certain possession that we had to win those possessions, and we did," Auriemma said. "Even though we were up the whole time, it never seemed liked it was going to get away from them. ... We were timely."
Stewart had 18 points and 11 rebounds in a matchup of the last two national champions. Defending champ UConn (18-0) won its closest game this season, having beaten their first five ranked opponents by an average margin of 22 points, with the closest being 17 points.
"I think it builds our confidence a lot. It was a tough game, and we really had to grind it out at times, and you want to be able to respond well when things aren't going your way, and we did that," said Bria Hartley, who finished with 17 points. "I think that's a step in the right direction for us."
Baylor (14-2) hadn't lost at home since a 70-54 defeat to Texas in its regular-season home finale March 7, 2010. Senior starters Odyssey Sims, the national scoring leader, and Makenzie Robertson, the daughter of coach Kim Mulkey, had never lost a game in the Ferrell Center.
The Huskies have two of the five longest home winning streaks in women's basketball, their record of 99 snapped two years ago and an earlier 69-game streak. They have ended the other three, previously ending Stanford's 82-game streak last season and winning at Tennessee after the Lady Volunteers had been the first team to win 69 straight at home 18 years ago.
Moriah Jefferson had 13 points and Stefanie Dolson 10 for UConn, which has won 24 in a row overall. That matches the sixth-longest winning streak in school history, and is their second 24-game winning streak since their record 90 in a row ended in December 2010.
Sims, who entered the contest with 31.8 points per game, finished with 20 points on only 4-of-25 shooting. She made all 10 of her free throws, none after halftime. She didn't score for the final 10:53 of the game.
"I don't think they're worried about (their first home loss). I just think they're competitors, and you hate losing. It's not about a streak. You'll re-live the game," Mulkey said of the two senior starters. "Odyssey will relive the game and think, 'Wow, if I would have given us a little bit more, we might have won.' Or Makenzie thinks, if I would have made a couple more free throws. That's what competitors do. But they certainly are not worried about a streak."
Freshman Nina Davis had 11 points and 17 rebounds for Baylor. Robertson had 10 points including three 3-pointers.
It is the fifth season in a row the two national powers have met, this game featuring the two winningest active coaches by percentage and four of the six college players named earlier Monday to the U.S. women's basketball national team pool -- Sims and UConn teammates Stewart, Dolson and Kaleena Mosqueda-Lewis, who were all recognized before the game. Three were preseason AP All-Americans (Sims, Stewart and Mosqueda-Lewis)
UConn won the first two meetings, 70-50 in the 2010 Final Four, and by one point at home early the following season. Baylor as the No. 1 team for the last two games, winning in Waco two years ago and at UConn last season.
After trailing 36-27 at halftime, Baylor cut the gap to 45-42 with just under 14 1/2 minutes left when Niya Johnson scored on a layup after a bounce pass from Sims.
Auriemma called timeout, but when play resumed Johnson stole the ball from Stewart before Robertson missed a layup. Jefferson then hit a 3-pointer for the Huskies.
Sims hit a 3-pointer from the left wing with 10:54 left, her last points of the game, to get the Lady Bears within 50-49 -- though they never got even or went ahead after that.
Jefferson is the only UConn player from Texas (Glenn Heights in the Dallas area). She had a breakaway layup and a 3-pointer for the first five Huskies points of the game. She then had a steal and stumbled but kept her balance long enough to scoop a pass to Hartley for a layup that made it 10-7.

Micropayments For News Represent A Huge Opportunity... For The Smart News Org That Avoids Them
from the that's-how-you-fail dept
If most newspapers switch to micropayments, someone much smarter when it comes to business than Isaacson will create a new news site that doesn't charge. And they'll make it high quality, and they'll be able to make money through other means. Hell, it will be easier because all the fools who follow Isaacson and others in demanding payment will take all the competition out of the market.
These old journalists may know something about the inverted pyramid and how to put a news story together, but they might benefit from an economics class on how competition works when it comes to pricing. In the meantime, you just know there's a smart business guy out there, just drooling over the prospect of these old line media companies destroying their own businesses.
Oh, and one final point: just as in the article we saw yesterday, note that nowhere does Isaacson talk about giving people a reason to pay for the content. He just assumes they will. I'm sure the buggy whip makers expected people to keep spending money on buggy whips as well.

Gladys Joanne Jacobson was born in Dunton, Colo., on May 26, 1916. She is the seventh child and only girl born to Matthew L. Jacobson and Ida Johannah Jacobson.
She attended grade school in Colorado until 1927, when the family moved to Hood River and bought the Spring Grove Auto Park, which was the family home until it was sold in 1983. Gladys finished high school in Hood River and graduated in 1933.
After high school she worked in the fruit industry and had various jobs until November of 1942 when she went to work for the sheriff's office, where she was employed for 24 years.
In 1966, her mother had a stroke, so she resigned her job to care for her mother until her death in 1972. Thereafter, she helped with the Tourist Park until it was sold in 1983.
She was a charter member of the Soroptimist club, a member of the Hood River Historical Society and was a member of Immanuel Lutheran Church.
She was preceded in death by her parent and six brothers.
Her survivors are her niece, Karen Jacobson, of Lake Oswego, Ore.; five nieces and nephews in Philadelphia and three cousins in Colorado.
"It has been a good life and I hope all of you will keep well and happy for many years to come." (Obituary written by Gladys Jacobson.)
Gladys died Dec. 9, 2010, at the Hood River Care Center.
Arrangements are under the direction of Anderson's Tribute Center (Funerals, Receptions, Cremations), 1401 Belmont Ave., Hood River, OR 97031; 541-386-1000. Please visit www.andersonstributecenter.com to leave a note of condolence for family.

VARSITY BOYS: A 3-1 home win Tuesday and a 1-0 win Thursday gives the Hood River Valley High School varsity boys soccer team the momentum it was looking for as the league season approaches.
Edgar Villegas, Daniel Romero and Giovani Magana scored in Tuesday's home win against the Sandy Pioneers in a game that started slow for the Eagles (1-1 tie at halftime) and ended with an impressive showing of the team's offensive potential.
The boys went on the road Thursday, where Armando Hernandez scored off a corner kick for the only goal of the game. Goalie Quique Rueda got the shutout.
The team is now 4-0, with a 10-2 goal ratio, going into the third week of the season. The boys will have four more non-league games to improve upon before facing Pendleton, on the road, Oct. 1 in the Columbia River Conference opener. The next home game is Sept. 21, noon, at Westside school vs. McLaughlin.
VARSITY GIRLS: The HRVHS varsity girls bounced back from a tough 2-1 loss Tuesday at Sandy with a commanding 5-0 win at home Thursday vs. Franklin.
Senior captain Miga McCurdy had two goals in Thursday's win, as did freshman Cielo Rivera, while Taylor Simonds had one. Sophia Marble and Vanessa Silva split time in the goal for the shutout.
Coach Kevin Haspela said the girls played well organized and with intensity in the win, unlike the loss earlier in the week when the girls started less aggressive and fell behind 2-0 before picking up the pace. Collete Zack scored for HRV vs. Sandy, while an unlucky shot from McCurdy that would have tied the game bounced off the post toward the end of the second half.
The team, now 2-1 in the pre-season, plays next on Sept. 17, 7 p.m. at Henderson Community Stadium vs. Lincoln.

CORTLAND, N.Y. – Dan Pitcher (Cortland) threw a 19-yard touchdown pass to Mike Humphrey (Le Roy) with one minute, three seconds remaining and Marc Corrado (Newburgh Free Academy) made the tiebreaking extra point as Cortland rallied to defeat previously unbeaten and nationally ranked Montclair State, 10-9, in a New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC) game.
Montclair had a chance to win the game in the final seconds, but Jake Delvento's (Island Heights, NJ/Toms River South) 30-yard field goal attempt sailed wide left as time expired.
Cortland improves to 7-1, both overall and in the NJAC, and is currently a half game ahead of both Montclair State and Rowan in the league standings. Montclair, ranked 13th nationally by the AFCA and 14th by D3football.com, and Rowan University are both 6-1 in the league and 7-1 overall. Cortland wraps up the NJAC season next Saturday at home versus William Paterson. Montclair has league games left at home versus Brockport and at William Paterson, while Rowan hosts Western Connecticut State and travels to The College of New Jersey to finish its league slate.
Montclair took a 6-0 lead with 9:13 left in the first quarter on a Matt Jimenez (Waldwick, NJ) 8-yard touchdown run. Delvento's extra point, however, was blocked by Lou Crispo (Eastchester). The Red Hawks' six-play, 38-yard scoring drive was set up by a Dan Keegan (Fairfield, NJ/West Essex) 39-yard punt return.
A Keegan 34-yard punt return to the Cortland 26-yard line early in the second quarter set up Montclair's next score. The Red Hawks were held on 3rd-and-1 at the 17-yard line and Delvento made a 33-yard field goal to extend the lead to 9-0.
Cortland's first scoring drive started from its own 20-yard line late in the third quarter. Justin Autera (Mahopac) ran for a combined 24 yards over five plays. Two plays later, on 3rd-and-11, Pitcher hit Humphrey on a 28-yard pass to the Montclair 28-yard line. The drive stalled at the 19-yard line when Autera was stopped for no gain on 3rd-and-1, but Corrado made a 36-yard field goal to close the deficit to six.
Cortland's next two drives stalled in Montclair territory. Montclair started a drive on its own 12-yard line with 2:19 left but was held to six yards over three plays. Cortland burned a timeout after each play and got the ball back on the Red Hawks' 39-yard line with 1:43 left.
Receptions by Rob Von Bargen (Massapequa) and Anthony Giuliano (Thornwood/Westlake) pushed the ball to the 19-yard line. Two plays later, Pitcher found Humphrey open in the back right corner of the end zone for the go-ahead touchdown.
Montclair's Yessy Tejada (Weehawken, NJ/St. Joseph's (WNY)) returned the ensuing kickoff 23 yards to his own 40-yard line. The Red Hawks then earned two of their three second-half first downs as Tom Fischer (Livingston, NJ) threw three consecutive passes of 12, nine and 17 yards to Byron Lewin (Carteret, NJ). With less than 40 seconds left, Fischer connected with Keegan on a 4-yard pass and rushed for two yards on a QB draw. A Jimenez 3-yard run set up 4th-and-1 at the Cortland 13-yard line with 7.1 seconds left and led to Delvento's missed field goal.
Autera led Cortland with 122 rushing yards on 34 carries, including 20 rushes for 89 yards in the second half. Pitcher was 11-of-26 passing for 119 yards, with Giuliano making five catches for 57 yards. Pitcher has now thrown at least one TD pass in a game in a school-record 10 straight contests.
Cody Allen (Medina) and Bill Smith (Nanuet) recorded eight tackles each. Joe Lopez (Port Jefferson Station/Comsewogue) intercepted a pass late in the end zone late in the first half for his sixth pick of the season. Lopez has tied a school record with interceptions in four straight games – a mark originally established by Steve Daly in 1975.
For Montclair, Fischer finished 16-of-28 passing for 140 yards. Lewin caught 10 of those passes for 107 yards and A.J. Scoppa (New Milford, NJ) ran 12 times for 44 yards. Keegan returned three punts for 102 total yards. Ed Kirschenbaum (Lake Como, NJ/Manasquan) made a game-high 13 tackles, eight solo, and Mario McLean (Boonton, NJ/Montville) recorded nine stops. Kevin Cloghessy (Hempstead) intercepted a pass in the first half.
Cortland finished with a slight 255-227 advantage in total offensive yardage. The teams combined for 23 punts – 12 by Montclair and 11 by Cortland.

According to Zaring's post, the family paid a photographer $250 for a family photo shoot and these are the photos they got back...
Zaring says, "She said the shadows were really bad on the beautiful, clear, sunny day and that her professor never taught her to retouch photos."
The post has already been shared over 130,000 times and is giving the social media a good laugh.
"I literally have not laughed this hard in YEARS," Zaring said.

REAL SALT LAKE vs. GALAXY
Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. StubHub Center
TV/radio: TWCSN, TWCD/KEIB 1150, KWKW 1330
Update: This will be the third and final meeting of the season between the rivals who annually stage a battle for supremacy in the Western Conference. RSL scored a 1-0 victory in the season opener at StubHub Center and the teams played to a 1-1 tie two weeks later in Utah. … Defender Omar Gonzalez, back from the U.S. national team, resumed training this week with the Galaxy but remains questionable with an ankle injury. … Midfielder Kyle Beckerman and goalkeeper Nick Rimando, Gonzalez's teammates during the World Cup, are back with second-place RSL (7-3-7). … The Galaxy (5-3-6) are in a favorable spot in the standings with several games in hand, but they're still searching for consistency. "We can be more consistent throughout games," Coach Bruce Arena said. "Get a little bit away from those down moments. But that's all part of it with teams." … The Galaxy are down a forward after terminating a loan agreement with Brazilian striker Samuel this week.


text: WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. agricultural exports surpassed expectations last year generating a record $68.6 billion for U.S. farm families and the economy in general. According to USDA forecasts, the 2006 record will be broken soon with exports expected to bring in $79 billion in fiscal year 2007 and $83.5 billion for 2008. Ken Hobbie, U.S. Grains Council president and CEO, said the increased forecast is a direct indicator of the growing demand for U.S. feed grains, which are forecast at a record $24.3 billion in 2008. "By way of sharing information and educating our trade partners, the Council has helped producers establish a reputation for providing high-quality feed grains," said Hobbie. "Thanks to farmers responding to intensifying demand, we are known as a reliable and trustworthy partner." According to Kirk Miller, general sales manager of USDA's Foreign Agricultural Service (FAS), many facets contributed to USDA's most recent forecasts for U.S. agricultural exports. "A lot of factors came together to allow our analysts to come up with the 2007 and 2008 export forecasts. For example, many of our competitors are facing natural calamities, which are significantly reducing their crop size. Even more importantly, the quality of U.S. grains continues to meet and surpass consumer expectations," said Miller, who oversees FAS exports promotion, marketing and trade analysis, export credit programs and USDA food aid activities. Miller said when it comes to developing markets and enabling trade, the Council's efforts inspire demand through information sharing and hands-on development. "We cannot ignore the significant contributions being made by the U.S. Grains Council, which is a leading cooperator with FAS, on behalf of U.S. farmers," said Miller. "They are literally working around the clock to develop new markets and expand those already in existence." Hobbie said the heightened demand for U.S. feed grains contributed greatly to the USDA's forecasts. For example, corn exports alone are expected to reach $9.3 billion in 2008, accounting for 11 percent of the total value of U.S. agricultural exports. He also said with increasing corn prices, demand for barley and sorghum is growing as trade partners search for feed alternatives. Sorghum exports are expected to rise by $200 million. Kevin Natz, USGC director of trade policy said recently signed free trade agreements will open many doors for U.S. farmers to very important markets, thus fueling demand. "If Congress approves free trade agreements with the Andean countries of Peru, Colombia and Panama, the U.S. will ultimately have free trade for U.S. feed grains with over two-thirds of the population in the Western Hemisphere," said Natz, adding that the pending agreement with South Korea also stands to greatly benefit U.S. agriculture. "U.S. feed grains and producers win in a free trade environment. Liberalized trade will add value to U.S. grains."

Chrysler Group LLC filed paperwork on Monday for an initial public offering of up to $100 million, an action that could slow majority owner Fiat SpA's plans to take full ownership of the U.S. automaker.
Continue Reading Below
The offering will be underwritten by J.P. Morgan (NYSE:JPM), the company said in a securities filing posted more than four years after the third-largest U.S. automaker emerged, under Fiat management, from a government-sponsored bankruptcy.
Chrysler did not say how many shares of stock will be offered in the sale. The proceeds will go entirely to the trust for retired workers.
Chrysler's minority shareholder, the United Auto Workers retiree healthcare trust fund, decided in January to sell part of its 41.5 percent stake in the company in an IPO.
Sergio Marchionne, chief executive of both Chrysler and Fiat, said in mid-September that the IPO is likely to take place in the first quarter of 2014.
Marchionne and the UAW trust, a voluntary employee beneficiary association, or VEBA, have been at odds over the value of Chrysler. Their inability to agree on a price for the VEBA stake led to Monday's IPO filing.
Chrysler has risen from a nearly dead company in 2009 to one that is stronger than its parent in Italy.
Still, Chrysler said in its filing, "Despite our recent financial results, we have not yet reached a level of sustained profitability for our U.S. operations."
Chrysler, based in suburban Detroit, had cash and cash equivalents of $12.2 billion as of June 30. Its net profit in the first half of the year fell 21 percent to $764 million from $966 million in the previous year.
Marchionne had wanted to avoid the IPO because the sale could delay his plans for a full merger of the two companies. A full merger would make it easier - but not automatic - to combine the cash pools of the two companies, giving Fiat more funds to expand its product lineup.
Currently, Chrysler and Fiat are forced to manage their finances separately, even though they are run by the same executive team.

SOUTH HADLEY, Mass. - On Sunday, the MIT men's fencing team traveled to Mount Holyoke College for the 2010 New England Championships. MIT sophomore Ben Nield led the way for the Engineers, capturing the men's foil crown, while the Cardinal and Gray took fourth place in the event.
Nield posted an 11-1 record in the qualifying round, and when the day was done, the 2009 runner-up had captured this year's title, becoming MIT's 15th individual New England champion in the history of the program and the first since Oliver Chadwick in 2000. Daniel Levine (8-4) and Richard LaGrandier (8-3) also competed well for Tech's foil team, as Levine repeated last year's fifth-place finish and the Engineers took second in the weapon.
In epee, freshman Jackson Crane (8-4) and sophomore Carter Chang (9-3) both survived the qualifying round; Crane finished third, and Chang took sixth. Javier Ordonez (7-4) also had a solid day as the MIT epeeists ranked fifth on the day.
MIT's sabre squad failed to qualify any fencers for the finals, but Max Brand (8-4), Rajiv Nadadur (5-7) and Vinayak Ramesh (7-5) all posted solid records to lift MIT to another fifth-place finish.
Sacred Heart University took the title on the men's side, followed by Boston College and Vassar College.
The MIT fencing team hits the strips again on Wednesday when the men's and women's squads host the 3rd Annual Beanpot in DuPont Gymnasium at 5:00 p.m.

So without further adieu, it's finally time to share our Scattante Stories Giveaway Grand Prize winner. As we said before, we were thoroughly impressed by all of the funny, heartfelt, and inspiring Scattante Stories that we received. It made for a very difficult process to pick our winner, but we had to pick one story to win our Grand Prize of a 2010 Scattante CFR Comp Road Bike, Scattante Spyder Road Helmet, Scattante Team Short Sleeve Jersey, Scattante Airfino Bib Short, Scattante Matrix Multi-Lens Eyewear, Scattante Race Gloves, and Scattante Race Socks, and our winner was Gil!
Gil's Scattante Story is a simple but touching story of a father and son reconnecting by bike and enjoying their time together out on the road. So congratulations Gil, we hope you enjoy your new bike and all the adventures you'll have with your son while riding your new Scattante (we've heard a rumor that his son Alec will get to take over Gil's R330)!
My Scattante story is one about a father trying to stay connected to his 13 year old son.
Alec has gotten into fixed-gear cycling in a big way over the past year and he's really into his riding track bike. It's been great watching him get into riding, customizing and maintaining his bike. It reminded me about when I was into road biking when I was a teenager. I often watched him take off with friends with a mixed feeling of pride and a bit of loneliness — yes, loneliness.
Alec's rides were taking him farther and farther away from home. On weekends he'd be out riding with friends from morning til dark. It felt like a metaphor for a son growing up and asserting his independence. Don't get me wrong, I don't believe this is a bad thing, but sill as a dad, I felt our days of bonding over play were coming to an end. He had no interest in trips to the park, the zoo or bowling — the things we typically did before.
Part of me wanted to join him, but I had no bike that could keep up — I don't count the 'delivery bike' that has been a fixture in our garage for the past 10 years and had become a bit of a family joke. When he came home, Alec would share his adventures with me. I would wax nostalgic about my 1982 Schwinn. Alec would meekly suggest I should get a new road bike. I would respond with a non-committal grunt. A fixed gear bike seemed too hardcore for me. A road bike?… At that point I moved the conversation onto the next subject.
Finally two months ago, I built up enough resolve to go into Performance Bike and walked out with the Scattante R330. I was impressed at the lightness, the smooth shifting Shimano Sora gears and the overall comfort for a road bike. I was amazed at how much bikes have changed since my 1982 Schwinn. After a few trial runs getting used to riding, I was ready. Alec and I went out on a ride together for the first time in years.
We both enjoyed road biking together a ton. We took a ride out to the beach together and cruised up PCH. We had lunch. We raced. We saw snakes along the side of the road. We spotted three Ferraris. It was an awesome day for the two of us.
Well let me tell you — Alec and I are now taking rides together 2-3 times a week. Night rides (with lights of course) beach rides, sprints, you name it. For the first time in years, I feel like we are "playing" together. He's excited to talk to me about cycling, bikes and about planning our next adventures.
I don't feel like I got my little boy back — instead I feel like I now have something even better. A rich, dynamic relationship with my teenage son, and ample opportunities to bond over shared adventures. My Scattante R330 has played a big part in bringing my son and I closer together.

Brantley Gilbert Reveals That His New Tattoo Will Be Finished on TLC's 'NY Ink'
Brantley Gilbert doesn't quite have a full sleeve of ink on his left arm, but when his new tattoo is finished, he'll be close. The singer joined host Jeremy Robinson on the syndicated radio show Taste of Country Nights this week to talk about his new body art, and it was there that he revealed that the ink will be finished by artists on the TLC series 'NY Ink.' You can watch a video of the 'Kick It in the Sticks' singer talking about all his tattoos below.
The empty cross on his left bicep will soon be filled, according to Gilbert. "It will be a mural of Jesus inside the cross, and like the gates of heaven," he explains. That will contrast the fire and skulls on his forearm — work that was done by Corey Miller of 'LA Ink.'
Gilbert's little brother shares the cross tattoo with him, while a group of his motorcycle-riding friends share the "Brothers" tattoo he has on his right side. It's not clear when Gilbert's episode of 'NY Ink' will air, but he said he went to film it on September 11.

I was given a name of someone on Facebook that has made some interesting posts. I think that it is "PooP". I'm gonna give his name and the Facebook link, but I want everyone to wait until Thursday before trying to contact him. This will allow more people to view his stuff before he takes it down or secures it:
His name is Joey Sans. He apparently went to Loy Norrix. Check out the posts on his wall and see what you think. If anyone knows him or comes across him please get him to stop his vandalism. I will be sending him a message soon. I just want to give people a chance to see who it is.

Graduate Studies in Physics & Astronomy: Frequently Asked Questions
|The absolute shortest time is a little bit more that one year, since students must advance to candidacy at least one year before the beginning of the semester in which they plan to defend their dissertation. In reality, 3 years is considered very short. Five years is typical. Seven years is a time limit set by the Graduate School. It is possible to apply for an extension, if the student is in the advanced stage of preparing a thesis, or if there was an unforeseen circumstance causing delays. The two figures on the right show how does our student population change over time. On the first figure you can see the number of Ph.D. degrees awarded each year for the past 25 years. The other figure shows the number of students entering into the Ph.D. program, and the number of students still in the department as of April, 2005.
In addition, TA jobs are contingent upon passing the TSE or the SPEAK test. The TSE or SPEAK results are not required for admission. You may start preparing for the test after being accepted, and the tests can be done after arrival, during the week before the first semester starts. (The cost of this exam is paid by the student.)
|Another set of data is based on the survey made by the Gradute School for a report to the National Research Coucil. Here the median GRE is reported (median: separating the higher half and the lower half):
|The exam has 12 problems and students has to pick four. The problems are from advanced physics. It is possible to pass the exam even if the solutions are not perfect. It is difficult to tell how hard is the exam, but many students pass it before the final deadline. The figure shows how many students passed the comp after 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 or more semesters in Stony Brook, based on data collected between 2001-2006. For a student entering in the Fall the last time to pass the exam is the Fall of the second year, i.e. 4 semesters. In very exceptional situations the deadline can be extended. The best way to prepare for the exam is by looking at the old Exam problems, and reading the material of the breadth courses.
|The research activities in the Department are described in our WEB pages, and in the Graduate Bulletin. The figure here represents the approximate numbers of students working in different research groups, as of April, 2005. Key: Accelerator: Accelerator and Beam Physics; AMO: Atomic Molecular and Optical Physics; Biology: Biological and Medical Physics; CM Exp: Condensed Matter Experiment, CM Meso: Condensed Matter, Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics; CM Theory: Condensed Matter Theory; HE Exp: High Energy and Particle Physics, Experiment; ITP: C.N.

About Hammicks Legal Information Services
Short History of Hammicks Legal Information Services
Hammicks Legal Information Services (HLIS) takes its name from Charles Hammick a career army officer who, on leaving the army with the rank of Major in 1964, went on to open a general bookshop in Farnham, Surrey in 1968.
In 1973 after being featured in The Times, BBC's Money Programme and winning the Ronald Pollitzer prize for "significant services in the widening of book interest and book ownership", Charles allowed himself to be purchased by Associated Book Publishers (ABP) who were seeking to expand into retailing. APB were the owners of a number of academic / professional publishers including Sweet & Maxwell, Stephens and Routledge and were keen to develop a chain of bookshops to extend their influence in the marketplace.
On the 4th August 1975 ABP transferred the retail law interests of Sweet & Maxwell to Charles' control under the new trading name of Hammick, Sweet & Maxwell. The new group comprised a showroom in Chancery Lane, London, a mail order business and a journal / subscription business. HLIS therefore traces it own history from this date.
Hammick, Sweet & Maxwell published a catalogue of law titles available for purchase through it shop in Chancery Lane or by mail order. Today the Hammicks Law Catalogue is still an annual event having been published for over 35 years continuously.
In 1986 Charles Hammick retired and on the 31st July of the same year the London law bookshop was removed to 191-192 Fleet Street (its present position) and thus celebrated its 25th anniversary in 2011. At this point the group was still called Hammick, Sweet & Maxwell and had been a sister company of Sweet & Maxwell publishing for 11 years.
During 1987 ABP was purchased and broken up by International Thomson, a family owned business from Canada, keen to expand its professional publishing interests. HLIS (now renamed Hammicks Bookshops and including a wholesale business and 21 general bookshops as well as what eventually became HLIS) was purchased by John Menzies Ltd who hoped to duplicate the success that rival WH Smiths had had in purchasing Waterstones bookshops.
In August 1993 following a management "buy in" which bought the Hammicks shops out of John Menzies, a second Hammicks Legal Bookshop was opened in Manchester. This event prompted the formation of Hammicks Legal Division which then went on to further expand by opening a shop in Bristol (1995), a website (1999) and develop a sales force covering the whole of England, Wales and parts of Scotland. In order to supply accurate bibliographic data to its customers the Division published in addition to its annual catalogue (first published 1979), a Student Law catalogue, a Practitioner Law catalogue (looseleafs and mainworks only) and Hammicks Legal Catalogue on CD (a subscription product sold to clients across the UK and overseas).
Following many years of growth Hammicks Legal Division was sold to John Smith & Son Ltd in April 2003 and its headquarters moved to Ringwood, Hampshire. From there sales continued to grow and in 2007 the Division was awarded a contract to supply the Ministry of Justice which is still retained. It was during this time in 2008 that we were renamed Hammicks Legal Information Services as this name was thought to better reflect the range and depth of services offered to customers across the world.
Hammicks Update was first sent to customers in 2007. This monthly update on new titles, by category of law, expected from all law publishers over the next 12 months coupled with Just Published! detailing titles published in the last calendar month, allowed customers to keep abreast with new titles within their practice areas whilst ensuring that nothing important was missed due to early publication or for any other reason. Today thousands of Hammicks customers receive this monthly email alert or download the information in pdf format from our website.
Today in 2014 Hammicks Legal Information Services has been in place for 39 years. We remain the principal legal retailer within the UK, with the largest law bookshop in the world in Fleet Street, London plus our web and subscription/journals businesses which have customers world-wide. Our customers continue to receive an unrivalled one stop service for print products of all types, including online access to management information relating to their accounts and regular updates on new products. As well as traditional print information we also provide eBooks from leading law publishers and a growing range of online services and digital products in such areas as Compliance, Library Management, Business Development and Law Reports.
During our 40th year Hammicks Legal Information Services will continue to prove why we remain the principal legal retailer within the UK. Mirroring our customer's continuing movement to obtaining information either digitally or remotely (ie online or mail order) we closed our Fleet Street bookshop in January but maintained customer service levels through a new stock holding distribution centre. We will also be introducing a full eBook service through an expanded website as well as a bespoke standing order service for print and eBook to complement our existing world-wide subscription/journals business. Meanwhile our customers continue to receive an unrivalled one stop service for print products of all types, including online access to management information relating to their accounts and regular updates on new products. As well as traditional print information we also provide eBooks from leading law publishers and a growing range of online services and digital products in such areas as Compliance, Library Management, Business Development and Law Reports.

Alexandria Crossover occurred last week — all remaining House bills went to the Senate, and all Senate bills went to the House. It was a busy week, with big topics discussed from SB 259 to budget and transportation.
The big news this week was that the Speaker ruled that SB 259 (which was the Senate redistricting plan) was not germane which effectively killed the bill. Thanks to all of you who wrote and called. Defeating this was an important step. But some legislators in Richmond are already talking about ways to bring this back. So this fight is likely to come up again. We will keep you posted.
Budget: The Senate and House of Delegates passed budgets that will now be sent to the other body to review and ultimately to reconcile. I voted against the House budget for two reasons. First, it took money from education to pay for transportation. We have been cutting per pupil spending in Virginia for a number of years and our schools are being constrained in their ability to meet community needs. And second, the House budget didn't include a full expansion of Medicaid, which would help approximately 43,000 people in and around my district. With Medicaid, each of those people would have less need to use emergency services, which creates a savings for all of us.
Fortunately, the Senate budget provides funding to expand Medicaid. I am committed to working to make sure the Senate's Medicaid proposal ends up in the final budget. I put in a request for $2.5 million for a statewide Mental Health First Aide program and $1.85 million made it into the House budget. This is a great step. And I hope it will help pave the way for Virginia do much more with mental health care services overall.
Transportation: Last week NoVA was identified as having the worse traffic in the country. But I know none of us needed a survey to know that. Traffic destroys our quality of life and puts at risk the prosperity of our region. The Governor's transportation bill, which eliminates the gas tax and raises the sales tax passed the House and is now in the Senate where we expect many changes for the better.
I can see an opportunity for us to get something done this year, but it won't be easy and there will have to be changes to the currently proposed transportation bill. The Governor's bill does a lot of gymnastics so folks can claim they didn't raise taxes. The problem is, doing that means it also doesn't raise much money and it puts education funding at risk. We need well over a billion and a half dollars of new dedicated transportation funds each year to address our maintenance and construction budget shortfalls.
I understand the need to compromise and I remain ready to do that. But I also want to make sure the final bill isn't just a press release that forces us to come back to this issue next year. We need real revenues. We need local control of much of the money so we don't have to rely on VDOT making choices that don't make sense for our community. And we need to make sure transit is given the support it needs.
I'd love to hear your thoughts about transportation. Please visit my website (www.krupicka.com) and complete my survey on transportation issues. It will be under the 'Issues' tab. Additionally, I will be having a town hall this coming Saturday, from 11-12:30 at the Charles Houston Recreation Center at 901 Wythe Street in Alexandria. Info is also on my website.

Samsung has pushed out a number of system updates for the ATIV S Windows Phone. The device has only just started hitting supported markets and we're already seeing improvements being applied by the manufacturer, which could be viewed as a strong sign of support. So what has been updated?
Unfortunately a changelog isn't available for each app that has been bumped to a new version, but these are the system apps that are affected:
- Additional call settings
- Advanced text messaging
- Call blocking
- Contacts import
We haven't yet received the update notification on our own ATIV S just yet, so we could be seeing a delayed propagation. Should you already own the Samsung Windows Phone, be sure to stay alert and look for any sign of the updates rolling out.
Thanks, Andy, for the tip!

Leonardo DiCaprio eyes Woodrow Wilson biopic
- Bang Showbiz
- 17 September 2013
Leonardo DiCaprio has signed up to star in and produce a biopic about former US president Woodrow Wilson
Leonardo DiCaprio is set to star in and produce a biopic about US president Woodrow Wilson.
'The Great Gatsby' star has signed up for the big screen movie about the 28th American president, which is based on A. Scott Berg's recently released biography 'Wilson', according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Warner Bros. is in talks to pick up the cinematic rights to the book and DiCaprio's Appian Way production company is expected to join forces with the studio to make the film.
Berg's book was released last week to high praise for its "intimate portrait" of Wilson, who was elected to power in 1912.
The US president led the country into World War I and was instrumental in supporting the League of Nations, the creation of the Federal Reserve and the Treaty of Versailles.
The commander-in-chief's life certainly makes for a cinematic experience as he suffered a debilitating stroke whilst travelling tirelessly across America to rally support for the League of Nations.
Wilson was also the final president to wed inside the White House when he married Edith Galt in 1915. The president's first wife died in 1914, just one year into his first term.
DiCaprio is no stranger to biopics about historical figures after previously playing FBI director J. Edgar Hoover in Clint Eastwood's 'J. Edgar'.
Steven Spielberg recently enjoyed success with his biopic 'Lincoln', about the 16th US president Abraham Lincoln. The film earned star Daniel Day-Lewis his third Oscar for Best Actor.

The Westminster High football team had two goals in mind when it entered Ruby Field on Friday night: beat longtime rival South Carroll for the county title, and complete the first undefeated and untied regular season in school history.
With those accomplishments now in hand, the Owls can move on to their main goal of winning the school's first state football championship.
Westminster effectively mixed its running and passing games and unleashed the county's best defense in a 42-7 romp over the Cavaliers on Friday night at Ruby Field. Coach Brad Wilson's team completed the first undefeated regular season in program history, while earning its second consecutive county championship.
The Owls (10-0, 5-0 county), who outgained South Carroll by a 389-145 margin, were never threatened as they built even greater momentum heading into the Class 4A North regional playoffs.
"I want the kids to enjoy this, because going undefeated is big," said Wilson, now in his ninth year at Westminster. "But they're not done, and they have had only one goal on their minds since January. They're a mature group that works on getting better with each practice.
"We talked about three chapters in our book. The first chapter is done, the second starts next week, and hopefully we can keep playing the way we've been and get to that final chapter at the state championship."
Westminster and South Carroll had already clinched playoff spots before the season finale.
But they will be joined in the postseason by Manchester Valley.
The Mavericks' 26-7 win over North Carroll, combined with Northwestern-Baltimore's loss to Reginald Lewis, clinched the first-ever playoff spot for the four-year old program. Coach Tony Shermeyer's Mavericks will travel to either New Town in Owings Mills or Baltimore's Reginald Lewis next Saturday for a Class 1A North regional semifinal.
On Friday night, Westminster will host a playoff game for the first time since 2005. The Owls will host Blake (6-4), from Silver Spring, in a Class 4A North regional semifinal.
After dropping its first two games, Blake won six of seven before losing to Albert Einstein, 28-20, on Friday in its final regular-season contest. The Blake-Westminster winner will face either second-seeded Sherwood or third seed Catonsville in the regional championship game on November 16.
"After the win over Martinsburg (in week four), we really took off and knew we could do anything," said senior running back Dan Johnson, who gained a season-high 117 yards on seven carries and also caught a team-leading six passes for 67 yards. "Everyone is already focused on the next step, which is our first playoff game."
The Owls relied on their prodigious passing game to produce another lopsided victory. Senior quarterback Deryk Kern continued to excel, completing 19 passes in 29 attempts for 259 yards and three touchdowns.
Kern already holds the county single-season passing touchdowns record with 52, and seems certain to break the state mark of 56 set by Arundel's Billy Cosh in 2008. With 3,083 yards, he is also within reach of the county single-season mark of 3,335 passing yards set in 2005 by Westminster's Kevin Clancy.
"I started off nervous tonight," Kern said. "I'm usually calm, but after that first drive where I went 0-for-three, my teammates really picked me up."
Westminster jumped on top for good when Kern found junior wideout Ryan Hursey for a three-yard touchdown at the 7:06 mark of the opening quarter.
Kern and Hursey connected again from four yards out in the first minute of the second quarter, and Johnson's first touchdown run of the season at the 8:20 mark put Westminster up by three scores.
With just 1:17 remaining, Kern hit senior receiver Bradley Metcalf on a crossing pattern for a 13-yard score to give the Owls a 28-0 halftime lead.
On Westminster's opening drive of the second half, Johnson produced an outstanding 45-yard broken-field run to the Cavalier five. One play later, Kern scrambled through the South Carroll defense for the Owls' fifth touchdown.
Johnson's six-yard burst up the middle with 7:43 remaining closed the Westminster scoring. The Cavaliers finally got on the board with less than a minute left on quarterback Ben Nardo's six-yard keeper.
South Carroll, the first team in county history to reach the playoffs for four consecutive years, will move on to the Class 2A West regional semifinals.
The Cavaliers (6-4, 5-2 county) will have their hands full next Friday when they travel to undefeated Middletown for the second time this season. The defending Class 2A state champions defeated South Carroll, 37-14, on September 14.
While South Carroll will be a considerable underdog at Middletown, the Cavaliers are used to overcoming the odds. Coach Steve Luette's team started 1-3 each of the last two years, then rallied to win five straight games before absorbing a loss to Westminster in the regular-season finale.
After suffering heavy graduation losses from the 2011 team, the Cavaliers were expected to struggle. A season-opening 35-34 win over traditional powerhouse Linganore was followed by consecutive losses to Patuxent, Middletown, and Winters Mill.
But South Carroll quickly righted the ship. Led by the running of senior Dylan McDermott and the emergence of Nardo at quarterback, South Carroll won five consecutive county games to wrap up another postseason berth.
McDermott, who was held to 38 yards on 12 carries by Westminster's suffocating defense, concluded the regular season with 1,036 rushing yards.
He was one of a record five county players to eclipse the 1,000-yard rushing mark this season. Century senior Tyrice Rock led all county rushers with over 1,600 yards. North Carroll's Dan Gebhart and a pair of quarterbacks, Manchester Valley's Dom Frank and Wes Cook of Winters Mill, joined Rock and McDermott in the 1,000-yard club.

The new social gaming hub will be native to Android and showcase features along the same line as Apple's Game Center, including: achievements, leader boards, and a friend finder system. It was also rumored that the new platform will use Google+ to enhance its social aspect. Supposedly Google has been working towards making Android a better gaming platform for about year, something that "wasn't part of their institutional DNA". No information was given on when Google might launch this new service but it wouldn't be surprising if they made an announcement at their upcoming I/O conference. We'll keep you updated, but until then let us know what you think in the forums. Source: Android Police
