On a recent Saturday, a young woman passed out free red pencils in front of Bishop Kearney High School to adults filing into the building to take state-required teacher certification exams. The pencils were a gift of New York Urban Teachers, one of several expensive Department of Education projects aimed at streamlining the Byzantine certification process.
But inside the building, the pencils generated confusion and a warning.
"Do not use them," an exam administrator advised test-takers preparing to fill in dozens of bubbles on question sheets. "We have no way of knowing if they are No. 2."
Indeed, the pencils bore a catchy slogan - "Bringing outstanding certified teachers to NYC public schools," but no indication of lead hardness. The most vital information just wasn't there.
The pencils were emblems of the failures of the city's much vaunted teacher recruitment efforts. Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg announced the latest of these last month, a glitzy campaign sponsored by the Ad Council said to be the most ambitious in the city's history. The mayor promised TV commercials and billboards that would help attract the city's "largest pool of teaching candidates."
Like the useless free pencils, glitzy ads cannot help the majority of people who already want to be city teachers, but who now face
• heightened certification requirements,
• long delays in application processing,
• and a hiring culture that favors the well connected over the merely qualified.
On Feb. 1, requirements for a teaching certificate jumped significantly, even as the starting salary for most city teachers remained a modest $39,000. On that date New York State changed the requirements for entry-level teachers. First-time teachers sending paperwork after the deadline could no longer get a provisional certificate, which had allowed them to postpone one of three standardized exams until after they started work and demanded slightly less - or, in some cases, just different - coursework.
Tom Dunn, a spokesman for the state Department of Education, said the state toughened the requirements to comply with a portion of the federal No Child Left Behind act (PDF Format) mandating measurable state efforts to improve teacher quality by 2006.
"It's a national trend," Dunn said, adding, "We have no interest in certifying unqualified people as teachers."
But will the new regulations really produce better teachers? Depending on the certificate sought, applicants might need no more than two or three extra courses than they would have in January. Still, that could be a major deterrent for people who lack three credits of "information retrieval" - that is, a computer course -- now required for most teaching certificates.
Even before February, certificates required passing grades on two standardized exams - one in liberal arts and sciences, the other in teaching skills - each costing $70 for registration. With the addition of the third exam, the so-called "content-based test" on the subject to be taught -applying for a certificate costs an average of $500; added to the exam costs are fees for fingerprinting, application processing and required workshops, most of which have risen recently.
There is, of course, no guarantee that the applicant will be awarded a certificate, and then a job, after these expenses.
As the deadline for the changes loomed, an unprecedented 30,000 applications for teaching certificates poured into Albany in the first weeks of the year. Applicants currently enrolled in college education programs apply through their institutions and get priority. Others are being told to brace for a 24-week wait before their transcripts can be evaluated.
The process was delayed further by the state's failure to promptly issue new application forms and lists of coursework requirements. On Feb. 1, the state removed its downloadable application from the Office of Teaching Initiatives website; not until four weeks later did the new form materialize. During the hiatus, officials in the education program at one CUNY campus told students to cross out a heading on the old application reading, "Do Not Use After Feb. 1," and send it in anyhow.
First lesson for new teachers: break the rules. Given the 24-week wait, those who waited obediently for the new applications may not have their credentials in time for the September hiring season.
Or so it would seem. Actually, despite all the subway posters and radio ads contrasting teaching with baser callings like investment banking, networking and connections play as big a role in this low-paid world as they do on Wall Street. Individuals attempting to navigate the system on their own discover that it's like a nightmarish deli line, where those who came later than you keep elbowing to the front.
The New York City Teaching Fellows program streamlines, and subsidizes, the certification process for college graduates willing to teach in low-performing schools, mainly in the Bronx and central Brooklyn. But those wishing to teach high school social studies or elementary school need not apply: this highly selective program looks for people able to teach subjects for which there are acute teacher shortages, like math, science, Spanish and special education.
Another city-funded program that accelerates the process for teachers willing to work at troubled schools is New York City Urban Teachers, the program advertised on the pencils given away at the Brooklyn testing site. But Urban Teachers is mainly aimed at luring back certified teachers who have left the profession, particularly if they're already certified in a high-shortage subject or wish to add a second certificate in one of those subjects.
Those who do meet the criteria of these narrowly focused programs, but whose heart strings have been plucked by the Teaching Fellows recruitment posters ("Take your next business trip on a big yellow bus"), get shoved to the back of the line.
There's another shortcut, one that doesn't get announced at press conferences. A notice that appeared recently on the state's Office of Teaching Initiatives website informs prospective teachers, "If you are offered paid employment in a certified position in a New York City Public School, the New York City Department of Education can request an expedited review of your application."
How can uncertified teachers be offered jobs requiring certification? Dunn, the state education department spokesman, said job seekers who have sent their transcripts and test scores to Albany could show those same materials at an interview and expo. If a local official believes that certification requirements have been met, Albany will evaluate the application in 7 to 10 days, Dunn said.
Asked how local officials could so rapidly master the recent changes in requirements for dozens of different certificate titles, Dunn said, "People are being offered jobs by district hiring officials familiar with the process."
Who imagined that the education ads in the Sunday New York Times - and even in Craig's List, the online swap shop, where some of the city's public schools advertise for teachers - don't necessarily mean "certified teachers" when they describe jobs as open only to "certified teachers"?
It's a safe bet that Albany isn't rushing those applications to the front to reject them. That's why stories abound of job seekers who were "walked through" the certification process by a friendly administrator and landed a job although lacking a few pesky courses.
Thus, those who know someone who knows someone are favored, raising questions about where this leaves members of minority groups without social connections or heavy political wiring.
Maybe that's why the city didn't bother to specify whether the giveaway pencils were No. 2 - those in the know already knew.

Miami Delivers, Cruette Takes The Melges 32 Lead
4 March 2010
Miami, Fla. - It was an amazing day of racing for the 23-strong Melges 32 fleet at Premiere Racing's Miami Grand Prix. Abundant sunshine, a shifty, oscillating 15-18 knots of breeze combined with cooler that normal temperatures whipped up some of the best and most challenging conditions for three very nice races. Leading the fleet by a phenomenal 9 points, Jean-Francois Cruette (La Rochelle, France) on Teasing Machine turned on some serious speed to finish the day with a 5-1-1 scoreline in this ever-increasing, tough, talented fleet.
Racing got underway without hesitation, starting on time with the fleet finally getting their shot at a start just before 11 o'clock. The start was clean with John Kilroy (Los Angeles, Calif.) on Samba Pa Tipunching out, taking a strong early lead. Just when it looked as though Kilroy had the win within his grasp, 2009 Melges 32 World Champion Pieter Taselaar (New York, N.Y.) on Bliksem, current Midwinter Ranking Series leader Joe Woods (Torquay, UK) on Red and Jeff Ecklund (Ft. Lauderdale, Fla.) on Star charged ahead at the last leeward gate to the finish. Taselaar aggressively took the lead and won, Woods took second, Kilroy third, Ecklund and Cruette finished respectively in fourth and fifth.
The second race was equally exciting. A course 4 at 325 degrees with 1.8 nm set the stage for another heat — Miami Melges 32 HEAT! Another clean start placed Cruette around the top mark in first, Alex Jackson (Riverside, Conn.) on Leenabarca, Taselaar, Ecklund following. Cruette extended his lead as the race progressed leaving Taselaar and Jackson to fight for second place. By the last run, Cruette, Taselaar, Jackson and Ecklund broke away from the fleet. John Porter (Lake Geneva, Wisc.) on Full Throttle moved up into fifth. Cruette was launched for the finish, taking the win, Taselaar was second, Jackson was third.
Race three was a Course 5, providing Cruette the perfect opportunity to steal the show. The weathermark revealed another new leader, 2009 Melges 32 North American Champion Don Jesberg (Belvedere, Calif.) on Viva in first followed by Taselaar in second and Ryan Devos (Holland, Mich.) onVolpe in third. A big shift on the first downwind run turned the fleet on its ear at the leeward gate with Yukihiro Ishida (Tokyo, Japan) on Yasha Samarai just barely overtaking Jesberg at the gate, the two splitting the difference. With Jesberg to the right and Ishida left, Cruette moved into third position. Porter and Ecklund (who rounded the top buried deep in the field), came in from the right to round fourth and fifth respectively. Jesberg moved back into the leader position for the final weathermark with Jason Carroll (New York, N.Y.) on Argo in second, Cruette held firm in third. Patiently, Cruette worked his way down the final run to over take the lead on the finish beat to win. Carroll took second and Jesberg was third.
More racing is yet to come for Friday with similar conditions.

Awesomely Ambitious!
We have a wealth of information at our fingertips, with hundreds of professional, experienced Independent Professional Video Services Providers from around the world sharing and offering tips and suggestions for improving our video production skills or making our jobs easier. Tips and tricks of the trade. Insider knowledge that if we didn't have to look all over the place for it or spend a few hours searching for the right term on Google to find it, we could be using this information today! Right now!
Well, here it comes!
"1001 Video Tips" will feature secret, not-so-secret, unique, unusual, remarkably simple or somewhat complex ideas and actions that professionals and amateurs in the video industry use EVERY DAY to make their jobs easier or better. This book will organize a treasure trove of information into logical collections, under specific groupings and headings to help facilitate finding just the right bit of information you need to make your current project one degree, or a hundred degrees, easier, smarter, better.
And, you ask, what is so "awesomely ambitious" about this? It's getting the interest, involvement, enthusiasm and participation of the hundreds of video enthusiasts OUT THERE to make "1001 Video Tips" possible. I'm willing to do the work, organize the content, compile the information, categorize the contributions, create the mechanicals and publish the eBook, PDF and printed versions of the results. As you can see by the working title, we're aiming for "1001 Video Tips" and this could prove to be a massive undertaking.
Sure, it would be equally awesome if everybody from Steve Moses of Southern California, to Bill Mecca of New Jersey with his Video QuickTips, popular blogger and video producer Jay Michael Long of Mississippi, Luis O. Maymi of Puerto Rico with his ongoing e-mail video marketing campaign strategies and simple blue screen tutorials, all the folks from the popular FB groups such as Wedding Cinema, The Frugal Filmmaker, Final Cut Pro X for Event Cinematographers, the Video Editing Cubicle and the myriad video-based forums on the Internet, got onboard with this, each contributing one or more "tips" for inclusion in "1001 Video Tips" ... we could easily hit that number, easily representing 1,001 or more members of the unique world of independent video production.
With the help of Jay, offering to present this as a guest blog on "In the Viewfinder" and the individuals and groups mentioned above, their friends and associates in professional videographers associations around the world, "1001 Video Tips" could reflect the influence of the many, many video enthusiasts who enjoy making video for personal pleasure or profit ... those just starting out or even many of us who have been "in the trenches since day one." Not a day passes that I don't learn something from Rick Smith, Nishi Dias, Steve Doc Yankee, Pamela Sprys Dahlgren, Natalie Forbes Neal, Tony Bondi, Wes Moore, Ed Wardyga (remember Gadget Man?), Artis White, David Lai, Dan O'Hara, Bruce Paul, Ron Priest, Tom Alan Mitchell ... the list is infinite!
Enough of the name dropping. The "strategy" is to get at least one serious TIP from each of these individuals and as many as a thousand more, compile them into a solid reference and resource publication and offer it at a ridiculously low price to EVERY video enthusiast on the planet.
The popularity and success of this production is guaranteed, insured by the anticipated huge number of contributions, the good will of a WORLD of video professionals and enthusiasts who are more than happy to offer something unique to "1001 Video Tips" and in turn receive a downloadable PDF of the results, plus recognition for their unique contributions, a headshot photo and brief bio so readers know who they are in the industry, and their website if desired. This will be a massive viral experience! How?
I have the personal experience of organizing, writing, designing, publishing and marketing a number of video-related publications in print as well as ePub formats. I have succeeded in having publications listed not only at Lulu Dot Com, but iTunes' iBookstore and Barnes and Noble's Nook bookstore on the Internet. I will soon have a presence on Amazon as well. In addition, "1001 Video Tips" will have its own website presence. All of you who contribute and participate will have a photo/bio listing there as well.
In addition to all this, if each and every contributor also uses his/her social sites, blogs and PVN connections to mention "1001 Video Tips" even only once, the exposure will be astronomical and overwhelmingly viral.
A video book trailer will be created as well.
Your participation in the creation of "1001 Video Tips" will gain you recognition, establish branding for your business, products and services, and probably open doors that you didn't even know existed.
What's in it for You?
Recognition. A PDF copy of the finished publication. Unique discount pricing on the print publication ONLY for participants/contributors. And, depending on the overall success of the viral marketing strategies, special recognition on the "1001 Video Tips" blog site from voters and participants who give the nod to The Most Unique Tip, The Most Unusual Tip, The Least Expensive Tip and a host of other titles that you all will suggest over time as you participate in the blog content.
The blog will feature expansion on certain tips, offer readers an opportunity to enhance, add to or even share new approaches to the "1001 Video Tips" in the publication. This interactive environment will be beneficial to all of us who participate in the publication of "1001 Video Tips"!
A portion of revenues will be applied to acquiring software, hardware or even the components for implementing various "tips" in the book with random award drawings.
Categories can be expanded, based on what comes in but essentially topics will include: Lighting, Audio, Do-It-Yourself, Gadgets, Safety, Production, Editing Tips, Backup Tricks, Archiving, Creating Your Own Music. I am open to suggestions and input regarding all possible categories.
Keep in mind that the focus of "1001 Video Tips" is primarily on simple, unique or easy-to-implement "tips" that make the everyday production work in a videographer's life just a wee bit easier, smarter, more efficient or less stressful.
Tips probably should mostly range in the 500-to-900 word range, but there's nothing that says a good, solid tip needing extra special information couldn't be longer or more involved. The contribution of self-generated images representing your "tips" contributions and a release to use not only your tip and images, but your image and bio information is suggested. I can and will provide a form if you want/need one, or a simple statement given along with your submission would suffice.
Once the interest is evident and the tips begin coming in, I can begin organizing and categorizing, eventually formatting the layout. When the initial goal of 1,001 tips is reached I will provide all contributors with a working outline of the content and ask for input regarding that. Dropbox could be utilized to facilitate materials and progress reports.
What's the Timeline?
We're going to keep this project loose and by that I mean while I would like a deadline of, say, 90 days, taking this to December, with the plan to have a finished publication ready to offer first quarter 2013, for now I'm not implementing a HARD deadline.
The more complete your contributions are, the faster this will come to fruition and result in a publication we all can be proud of. So, have your tip, support graphics or image(s), brief personal/business bio and headshot all ready to submit at the same time. Initially, anyone interested may e-mail me at email@example.com. This may very quickly evolve into a Dropbox file folder where your e-mail query will result in getting access to upload your materials for inclusion in "1001 Video Tips".
THANKS, JAY, for offering space on your blog for this "guest" blog post.
— Earl Chessher, Video StoryTellers!™

Two Former Professors are Also Honored
The University of Rochester's Department of Mathematics is well-represented in the first-ever round of fellows announced by The American Mathematical Society. The AMS has named Professor Frederick Cohen, Professor Douglas Ravenel, and Professor Emeritus Joseph Neisendorfer of the Department of Mathematics to its inaugural class of Fellows for 2013. Also named were Sam Gitler, a professor at the University from 1987 to 2002 and past department chair, and John Moore, a current research associate who served on the faculty from 1987 to 1998.
The AMS started the fellows program to recognize "members who have made outstanding contributions to the creation, exposition, advancement, communication, and utilization of mathematics."
All five of the University-connected mathematicians have made their marks in the field of topology, which involves the study of geometric properties.
"The mathematics department has long been proud of our strength in topology," said Allen Greenleaf, department chair. "These fellowships confirm that we have one of the most influential topology groups in the country."
The American Mathematical Society, with headquarters in Providence, RI, was founded in 1888 to further the interests of mathematical research and scholarship.
In all, the AMS named 1119 mathematicians—about 3 percent of its membership, representing more than 600 institutions—to its inaugural class of fellows.

Kohima, the state capital, houses the largest crucifix in Asia.
Touphema Tourist Village
Situated on a gentle hillock with panoramic views of the surrounding valleys at a distance of 41 km north of Nagaland capital Kohima,the Tuophema tourist village offers exquisite traditional Naga life in the lap of nature.
As part of the Naga hospitality, tourists are also offered local dishes with home made rice beer.A recently refurbished Museum inside the village offers an extensive ethnographic collection including wood carvings, musical instruments, textiles, handicrafts traditional artifacts, jewellery ans archaeological finds.
"I have enjoyed it so much. It is a completely new experience and it is very impressive and very moving. Its a traditional culture still strong and still active. Most impressive, very moving," says Allan Wilson, a Scot tourist..
The Hornbill festival held in the first week of December shows that with its stunning natural beauty and great cultural traditions, Nagaland can offer a rich fare to tourists.
The state of Nagaland still supports a tribal culture and here at the Hornbill Festival, in the state capital Kohima, this is celebrated with a series of performances and demonstrations.
The festival sees each tribal Hoho (the leading body of each tribe) construct a Morung (boys dormitory), where the values of life are traditionally imparted. In these modern-day Morung, the tribes depict their original lifestyles as accurately as possible. Although they don't have the original totem poles or carvings, the ceremony still serves to give an authentic idea of the traditions of the tribes.
Traditional arts are also featured, with paintings, wood carvings and sculptures by modern Naga artists on display. Naga troupes sing folk songs, perform traditional dances and play indigenous games and sports.
In the evenings a programme of music concerts, catering for all tastes, ensure that the festive spirit continues through the night.
Dzükou Valley
Dzukou Valley Situated at an altitude of 2438.4 metres above sea-level, behind the Japfu Peak, it is 30 Km to the south of Kohima. The entire valley is overshadowed with a type of tough bamboo brush to make the place appear like a mown lawn. The serpentine stream that flows through Dzukou becomes frozen during winter. In summer, wild herbs sprout along the river banks. Lilies in white and yellow and a hundred of other specias of flowers in varied colour adorn the valley in summer. Rhododendrons in white and other colours ornament the hills surrounding the vale. This is one of the best trekking spots in the North-Eastern Region. A base camp for Trekkers' is being constructed on the way from the Jakhama route.
From June to September, the entire valley is covered with a carpet of wild flowers. Here, you are completely at peace with nature. The valley is surrounded by hills, natural caves & rocks and is thus, ideal for camping.

A home network will link the many different electronic devices in your farm office, including two or more computers. Once your network is set up, your computers can share the Internet, plus printers, scanners and other peripherals. You also can manage controls within your home and office, such as temperature and lighting, through the network and even remotely through the Internet. And you can use the network for security monitoring with network cameras.
These are the major categories of home networking systems:
Conventional Ethernet requires special wiring as well as a server, hub and/or router to direct network traffic. Each device on the network must be connected to the Ethernet. Ethernet networks often require new wiring, a hub and add-in cards for older computers.
Phoneline (HomePNA or HPNA) uses the existing phone lines and wiring typically found in homes. The network can support up to 25 devices up to 500 ft. apart in offices and homes up to 10,000 sq. ft. HPNA operates with other networking technologies such as Ethernet and HomeRF and is compatible with high-speed Internet technologies such as cable modems and DSL.
Wireless is cable-free. There are three types of wireless networking services/standards being developed and sold today: IEEE 802.11 (wireless Ethernet), HomeRF and Bluetooth. A wireless network uses electromagnetic waves to transmit and receive data over the air. These waves are actually low-frequency radio signals that are not licensed by the FCC and are used mainly for microwave ovens and cordless phones.
Powerline networking uses existing power lines. Signals are encrypted before transmission; the signal reduces quickly so it will not leave the home. However, some Powerline technologies are more secure than others; an unencrypted household network may be accessible to neighbors sharing the same transformer. — 2Wire Inc.

Verizon Wireless Apparently Still Can't Train Its Sales People In Basic Math
from the add-your-0.2-cents dept
Broadband Reports points us to a guy who clearly has way too much free time, who decided to check up on Verizon Wireless, calling the company 56 times to ask about two separate data rates. Out of 56 customer service reps he spoke to, a grand total of one gave him the correct info on both questions. 52% answered both questions incorrectly. All in all, he received 22 unique answers, with many underquoting the actual rate by a factor of 100. However, as he noted, that didn't stop nearly all of them from immediately then offering him a two-year contract -- which you could claim was sold to him with false data about what he'd be paying. He put together a nice video to highlight some of the incorrect statements from Verizon Wireless CSRs:

The Rail Accident Investigation Branch (RAIB) is the independent railway accident investigation organisation for the UK. It investigates railway accidents and incidents on the UK's railways to improve safety, not to establish blame.
This website forms the RAIB's primary channel for sharing the findings from its investigations, as well as providing the railway industry and general public with a means of finding out about the RAIB.
Our purpose for investigating an accident or incident is to improve the safety of the railways, and to prevent further accidents from occurring.
We achieve this by identifying the causes of accidents and other aspects that made the outcome worse.
Our investigations are entirely independent and are focused solely on safety improvement - we do not apportion blame or liability, nor do we enforce law or carry out prosecutions.

In the realm of "now I've seen everything," a darling doggy and her dishy master wordlessly (and barklessly) took me on a tour of a home, told me a story, and made me want to move in (with them). Brainchild of agent Heather Rovet of Sage Real Estate, the professionally produced lifestyle video is an innovative sales tool.
Ms. Rovet's previous experience in the fashion and film industries made her realize that a lifestyle video was the best way to engage potential buyers for 218 Cottingham St. "By the time they first visit a property, most consumers already know the specs and features, so creating a visual way for them to interact with the house is a natural next step."
A unique, renovated threestorey property listed at $1,495,000, the semi has double car parking and an open main floor with doors at each end leading to private landscaped patios. A master bedroom with a gorgeous ensuite bath, a laundry cupboard, custom closets and an office inhabit the second floor while an open, skylit loft and bath occupy the third. The unusual layout begged to be filmed.
Working with Mark Wilson from Property Film to develop a storyline involving a hipster and his furry friend (which took a week), they went on to shoot the one minute, 53 second video with professional actors over one (exhausting) day. Neither Heather nor Mark has worked on this kind of lifestyle video before. More important, it got the results Heather had hoped for. And in seven days.
The buyer, a guy in his midthirties who works in finance and dresses like the actor (but has no dog - yet), saw the video, fell in love with the house and presented a bully offer. Heather confirms, "The video was instrumental to the sale." But Heather is not the only one to use video in a creative way.
To entice buyers to his home and condo listings, Jonathan Amantea of Re/Max 2000 Realty posts commentary and videos of attractions, hotspots and public transit options. He says buyers who don't know neighbourhoods more often consider moving in after watching his mini-tours.
Chuck Charlton atRoyal LePage Meadowtowne Realty has positioned himself as a Milton real estate expert by providing daily video insights into every new listing. For anyone thinking of moving to the town, his videos are a stellar resource.
Over at Coldwell Banker Terrequity Realty, Farrell Macdonald's unscripted videos are a huge hit with potential buyers who like his casual but insightful personal home tours. He says, "75% of people looking for real estate online expect to see some video component, but only 10% to 15% of agents employ it." That explains why traffic to his website is increasing monthly. And why the doggy video was instrumental in the sale of 218 Cottingham St.
Videos of any kind are enthusiastically welcomed by consumers who shop online before touring homes and neighbourhoods in person. While a lifestyle video is not ideal for every property, for special homes it has been proven to be 100% effective. So, how long will it be before scene-stealing dog actors are in high demand?

We're available 24/7 to discuss treatment options.
Making an educated treatment decision begins with the stage, or progression, of the disease. The stage of multiple myeloma is one of the most important factors in evaluating treatment options.
Our cancer doctors use a variety of diagnostic tests to evaluate multiple myeloma and develop an individualized treatment plan. If you have been recently diagnosed, we will review your pathology to confirm you have received the correct diagnosis and staging information, and develop a personalized treatment plan. If you have a recurrence, we will perform comprehensive testing and identify a personalized treatment approach.
To determine which multiple myeloma treatments meet your needs, your care team will learn the stage (extent) of the disease. The rate the cancer is growing and whether or not there is evidence of kidney problems or other serious symptoms may also influence treatment choices.
Most cancers are staged based on the size and spread of tumors. To stage multiple myeloma, we look at blood cell counts, the amount of protein found in the blood and urine, the calcium level in the blood and other diagnostic test results.
There are currently two ways of staging multiple myeloma, both of which divide myeloma into three stages indicated by Roman numerals I-III. These two multiple myeloma staging systems differ in the factors that are evaluated:

kite recomendation
so if u have already read my other post im a wakeboarder switching over to kiteboarding for a while due to getting run over by a jetski, i have sucured a practice kite that my neighbors that i have been playing with and have decided im going to go with the sport. so basicaly im going to use a modified wakeboard that has low rocker to save money cause i am on a budget cause im a teenager. and i have been looking at kite on ebay and cause of my limited knowledge on winds conditions and currents i need a recomendation on a kite. i weigh 145 lbs. and im 5'9" and ass i said im using a low rocker wakeboard so i have minimal drag but wont be nearly as little as a kiteboard and until i get to between beginer and intermidate i refuse to buy a board incase i decide that kiteboarding isnt for me, also i plan to be riding out at the berkely marina as a starting point, so any ideas are welcome, currently im looking at a 12 m naish boaxer, and a 10 m slinghot fuel, any recomendations on sizes for my size and those conditions off the marina would be great
Well to start you should really get a kite specific board to learn on. You can get a cheap one on ikitesurf.com classifieds. A wakeboard is not designed to be used with a kite. It can be done but it's not very fun nor easy. The 12m and 10m should be good for Berkeley but Berkeley is not a good place to start. Being a wakeboarder you probabaly want to stay with a med aspect kite like the boxer and fuel. Get some time in at Alameda and a 12m is perfect to learn on there. Berkeley is very dangerous for a beginner because of the rocks and the freeway and on shore wind. I was the same as you being a wakeboard convert and thought it would be much the same but kiting is a lot different and there is a lot to learn as far as safety, wind, edging, right of way on the water, tacking, jumping, powering and depowering, the power zone, launching and landing etc. hope this helps. Be safe out there. It's one extreame to the other. Hit by a wave runner or lofted into a tree. I have seen people launched into a tree twice in my five years of kiteboarding.
Re: kite recomendation
No one starts out at Berkeley. Try Alameda or 3rd ave first. Unless you want your new kite torn up on the rocks.
You need more than 12m at Alameda. At 3rd, the 12m and 10m are a good call.
Good luck!
well cool thx guys i thought berkely cause its closest to me and i can get rides there no prob daily from my neighbors but ill start at alameda. i thought that berkely would be good launching over on the beach by the old dump site, last time i was there i saw no rocks and though it might be a good starting location. also i have alot of sailing experience so im familiar with right of way taking wind conditions, but i fall short as far as safety goes and when it comes to powering and depowering with a kite i have no idea how to do all that so obviously at a high wind location with rocks it would be very bad and ill have to agreee with you pipedragon getting launched into a tree is not good neither is getting hiot by a wave runner anyways hope to see you guys out there soon, any other sujestions are welcome
Your probably familiar with Liquid Force coming from the wakeboarding background. They make a nice bow kite, which I would recommend for someone starting out kiting. Complete depower and easy relaunch when learning will shorten your learning curve greatly. Also, bow kites have a greater wind range which will get you more days on the water with only one kite. A 12M bow has an effective range of 10-14M. Kitewindsurf shop in Alameda will have demo's (12 and 16M) to fly in a few days. The Liquid Force boards (WLF, Mission, and Drop LTD) are available to demo right now.
ok personaly i have lots of experience with liquid force having rode for them but i cant emphesize enough that i have very little money to do this because im a teenager below 18 and i dont have a job so while buying nice equiptment would be nice im stuck having to buy sub 200 dollar kites that are used and no buying a board so but if i get some money together ill take that recomendation on a bow kite cause i havent found a used one for less than 400 bucks

Thanks to our own AC synchronous and reluctance motor designs and expertise, IDAM is positioned to meet the growing demand for highly dynamic and precise motion control applications.
From extremely fast wire bonding machines, to highly precise measuring and processing machines, to fast material handling systems, IDAM has the expertise and infrastructure to assist with a wide variety of linear motor applications.
IDAM can further optimize a linear motor system by combining it with either a mechanical bearing or air bearing support system.
Slotted synchronous L1, L2 and L2D series as wellas the ironless ULIM motors are especially suitable for machine tools.
L1 motors operate accurately and efficiently with low heat generation and the power generation is approximately 6 - 8 N/cm2. These linear drives are particularly suitable for measuring and feed tasks due to their slim design.
With the L2 motor series, our developers have succeeded in combining high power generation (> 10 N/cm2) with excellent synchronization properties and considerable efficiency – precisely the characteristics required in the precision machine industry. The cogging and load pulse forces have also been practically eliminated. This results in optimum synchronization, one of the prerequisites for precision processing. The high winding density means that heat penetration into the surrounding machine frame is minimized. Two separate cooling circuits and heat insulation also further reduce heat penetration.
The L2D series is characterized by an excellent power to volume ratio and by the lack of attraction to the guide system. This means it is predestined for dynamic applications requiring high performance. A very compact design supports the integration of these motors in the mounting structure.
The ironless motors of the ULIM series are particularly dynamic, have an excellent smooth motion and no cogging forces. Especially tasks with high dynamics and applications, which need highest path accuracy or constant speed, are good to resolve with this ironless, linear direct drive – e.g. measuring and testing systems, precision automation.

After three days adrift on a life raft in the remote Southern Ocean, round-the-world yachtsman Alain Delord has been rescued by a cruise ship returning from Antarctica.
The Orion rescued the stranded Frenchman about 500 nautical miles southwest of Hobart on Sunday night.
A spokeswoman for the Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) confirmed the 63-year-old was picked up by the ship, which was diverted about 1800km to perform the rescue, in an alert issued just after 9.30pm (AEDT).
"I'm very pleased to confirm the solo sailor, who had been in a life raft in the Southern Ocean for the past three days, has been recovered by the cruise ship Orion, and AMSA believes he is being taken to Hobart," she said.
There were "scant" early details of the rescue but AMSA said Delord had been recovered "safely and without injury".
"He is currently receiving medical attention and early indications are that he is healthy," the spokeswoman said.
"Weather conditions were better than expected and there was plenty of light in the area."
Delord, who set off at the beginning of October, abandoned his yacht Tchouk Tchouk Nougaton after it lost its mast and its hull was damaged in rough weather.
The location was too distant for a helicopter rescue with MSA using three aircraft to maintain contact with the sailor until a vessel could reach him.
The Orion, with 100 passengers and 80 crew on board, was on its way from Antarctica to the world heritage-listed Macquarie Island when it responded to the call for help.
The ship had battled deteriorating weather conditions throughout Sunday to reach Delord, with fears he would have to spend a third night at sea.
The yachtsman had received an air drop of food, water, communications equipment and a survival suit while he waited for his rescue.
The captain of the Orion Mike Taylor reported that Delord was recovered safely and without injury.

by Eric Ratcliffe » Fri Jul 03, 2009 11:48 pmLee I cannot agree more with your review and love next week's choice. Such a great time to be a fan of the medium.
by Punchy » Sat Jul 04, 2009 5:21 amFourthman, did you notice that in Cascioli's original pencils, Ray was also in his Atom suit when normal-sized.
Even more confusing.
by KING King Impulse » Sat Jul 04, 2009 11:18 amI don't know the full reasons as to why, but that is what Ray Palmer always did. His suit always disappeared when he grew to full-size. (Well, he could have it on at full-size, but it seems there's an option to change back)
I don't complain about the Flash rings, so I'm not going to complain about this.
by thefourthman » Sat Jul 04, 2009 11:57 am
yeah, but they should have fixed it in that first page then. I kinda got the sense that he will no longer be wearing the suit anyhow.
by thefourthman » Sat Jul 04, 2009 12:00 pm
Like I said, there may be a reason, but you got the one guy (Ryan) who is pretty much always in the suit (as I recall wasn't he naked the first time he put on the belt or something to that effect, I remember him running around all naked) at both sizes and then Ray not only grows bigger without the suit but appears to be shrinking to not wearing the suit at the end...
It needs an explanation. That's all. Even Flash has explained that ring crap to whatever way the writer feels.
by KING King Impulse » Sat Jul 04, 2009 12:56 pm
Ryan was fiddling with the belt and accidentally shrunk himself out of his clothes.
I'm going to look into the actual reason as to why the suit appears at Atom-size
by Daringd » Sat Jul 04, 2009 3:07 pmSo I picked up my comic yesterday and completely forgot about CfJ. I went back to the store today to get it and the damn thing I had sold out. So no review from me sorry guys. Great pick for next week!
by guitarsmashley » Sat Jul 04, 2009 4:18 pmWhere to begin when discussing Cry for Justice, I'll go with Hal. I'm not a Hal fan, I read through Rebirth and the first 8 or so issues of the GL title it's currently on. Maybe my limited experience is where I just don't get Hal, but he's never seemed to me that he's the kick ass take no prisoners guy he was set up to be in the first 4-6 pages. In fact it felt forced lets start a comic with this guy and he's being pushy and he doesn't care what people are saying what Batman is dead? ok let's make him Hal Jordan. Really I feel like Robinson put the wrong second word on his script really it should have been Arrow not Lantern giving this diatribe instead. On a side note if I say something before the character says it, it's really not that great a writing job. It would have been nice for Ollie not to say "Oh boy" and be almost his entire dialogue but because this is something he actually agrees with and Hal is lets face it a buffoon goes with him. Thus ends the appearence of the more "interesting" characters of the book.
I turn the page and I see an Atom, I think it's probably ray Palmer. I was glad to see Ryan who I liked during Remenders couple of issues but the first couple panels of Ryan and Ray were a bit confusing. Now we get to the moment all us Starman nerds are waiting for, Mikal Thomas. It was lame. Thanks for nothing James. and then we see the same set up over and over again. No villians no team-ups, no plot. There is a little set up but right now our heroes are interested in one thing completely seperate from each other, JUSTICE and you just know they'll find each other at the end of next issue so they can take down this justice fellow.
Ah the art, I didn't know comics were being colored with crayons these days.
by Zechs » Sat Jul 04, 2009 6:55 pm
It's good to see such fine upstanding folks are as brutally honestly as I was that this mini is utter shit. Cause clearly me, guitar, and 48 are not blinded by Robinson being on Starman to see what this book truly was. The rest of you are utter FOOLS for thinking this book was awesome. McDuffie wrote a better speech in JLA showcasing Hal and Ollie as they truly where being assholes.
by Eric Ratcliffe » Sun Jul 05, 2009 12:39 am
For once...go fuck yourself ducky.
Seriously 3 of the reviews are low scored and didin't enjoy the issue, doesn't make it fact that it sucked.
Sorry that no one likes your batgirl enough to use her.
by Starlord » Sun Jul 05, 2009 12:45 am
I didn't care for the issue, but didn't think it sucked.
However, that last line is hilarious and capped off a great night!
Loves ya Zechs!
by malcolm reynolds » Sun Jul 05, 2009 6:00 pmJustice League: Cry for Justice #1
James Robinson and Mauro Cascioli's first issue of Justice League: Cry for Justice was released this week. Initial interviews with Robinson stated bluntly that this series will be about "justice and seeking justice, rather than responding to emergencies, letting the problems come to them and being almost entirely reactive." In this first issue we see Hal Jordan putting Superman in his place and stepping up to be the law enforcement officer he id supposed to be. Although in this first issue I just found myself getting sick of the word 'justice'.
In the second part of this issue we see Ray Palmer and the new atom in for lack of a better term, a bar fight, with a D-list Batman villain. We see Robinson attempt to do a back-and-forth inner dialogue the likes we've seen in Superman and Batman. It didn't quite hit home and was just a tad annoying to read the same text from both characters. And to be honest I've never read anything involving the new atom and after his unmemorable portrayal here, I could care less if he's around in five years.
Next the readers are introduced to Mikaal Thomas, from Robinson's Starman series. And although this had the same feel as the rest of this poorly narrated book, you felt like this scene was a bit easier for Robinson to write, it flowed a lot better than the rest of the scenes. And finally; Congo Bill/ Congorilla, I have no idea who this character is, and I have a hard time imagining that a man in a gorilla's body is going to be able to keep up with the strength of a Green Lantern. It made it even more obvious that Robinson knew that no one knew who this character was, when they threw in a last minute origin at the end of the issue. As for the back matter I really liked it, not only did we get to see some of the unfinished pencil's for the book but we get to hear Robinson's take on this book and what's going to be coming from it.
I understand that in a first issue there has to be a certain amount of set-up, but this is only a 7 issue mini and after the first issue we've only seen five members of a team that hasn't even formed yet. The price tag with this mini seemed a bit steep too. Sure the back-matter was great but it was only what, a 22 page comic.
I'm new to James Robinson, but from what I've read so far of Starman, and also to a lesser extent his work on Superman, he is a phenomenal writer. But I can't help feel some of his grandeur is behind him with his "Justice" one-liners just getting lazier as the issue progressed. In fact alot of the dialogue felt off from the aforementioned Atom scene to Green Arrow being stuck on an "oh boy" loop. It really felt like he knew that fans were going to love this team because of the characters and just phoned-in the rest.
The premise of the story itself is interesting enough, Green Lantern feels that the Justice League doesn't actually do anything except wait around get attacked all the time. He wants them to actually go out and stop the villains instead of just reacting to attacks like they are currently. And when Superman doesn't listen he takes Ollie and leaves the tower. I always love Green Arrow and Green Lantern together and this was no exception, it's great to see a character that has the other's back no matter what.
Mauro Cascioli is an outstanding artist and this is my first encounter. His attention to detail and his Iconic designs of the characters were engrossing. I found myself drawn to the art; I have a monumental flaw of breezing through a comic in five minutes and not appreciating the art, not the case in this issue. The flashback panels of the deaths of Batman and the Martian Manhunter were notably some of the best work I've seen recently. The red over-tones separated these panels from the rest of the page and spoke volumes for the emotional depth they were trying to convey. We don't see much on the scale of what Cascioli is capable of as this first issue is a lot of basic talking scenes, and is lacking in any sort of action. I'm interested to see what else this fantastic artist is capable of.
Despite my many criticisms's of this fist issue, this book has major potential and is light years ahead of what McDuffie has been producing in his recent tenure on the book. I really felt this could have just been the start of Robinson's run on JLA rather than just a mini, but as it stands DC has managed to make me pick up another title of theirs for the time being at least. It's unfortunate this book didn't live up to my expectations, but thanks to the hype and the high standard I hold Robinson's writing I don't think it could have. Justice League: Cry for Justice, is an average step in the right direction, but it might be enough to make me care about the justice league again.

I Haven't been around much lately, busy times but I always try to make time for the review group at least once every two weeks. Wednesday comics next week is going to be interesting. It'll probably get a lot of mixed reviews, with the title having a lot of different writers. But this is one title that I'm really looking forward to.

I'll jump on the "this issue sucked" bandwagon. The writing felt so cliche and just run of the mill which made it boring. This should have been one of those issues given out on FCBD as basically this entire issue was set-up and nothing meaningful happened. The first 8 or so pages have been in solicits for it feels like months now so I had alread read have the book it fel like before opening the damn thing. I have no attachment to any of the characters so any hidden stuff for DC fans went over my head and did nothing for me. This is a one and done for me on this series as I care less about the book than I did before picking it up and reading. The art however was very nice and gave the book a unique feel at the very least. I like to see different styles and this was very unique at least as far as compared to anything I buy regularly.

text: Why Cheese Is Essential to Ag Trade Growth April 11, 2014 05:59 AM Tweet When ag trade works, the value to U.S. producers and their customers is enormous. TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By News Release Email Cheese could play a vital role in ongoing trade negotiations. By: Melissa George Kessler, American Farm Bureau Federation Gorgonzola, asiago, parmesan, feta – all of these are common in grocery stores and restaurants, key components of salads, pasta dishes and cheesy bread products. They are also known as geographical indicators, words that reference the historical origins of the products themselves, though all have been produced outside of those home regions for generations. In many cases, makers of these products in other parts of the world have spent decades building their markets. But now the European Union is seeking restrictions on how these common names can be used as part of a trade agreement it is negotiating with the United States. If EU negotiators get their way, American producers of these cheeses and other food products would be forced to rebrand their goods and try to communicate to consumers why the foods they have traditionally enjoyed are suddenly called something different. This would have real reputational and financial costs; the U.S. Dairy Export Council estimates $4.2 billion worth cheese would be affected. It's no news that U.S. agriculture is a trade powerhouse. The value of U.S. ag exports has exceeded $140 billion each of the past two years, with an overall positive trade balance that infuses billions of dollars into the American economy each month. According to the United States Trade Representative (USTR), the agency that negotiates trade agreements on behalf of the U.S. government, 20 percent of farm income is from exports. This means that not only is ag trade essential to the continued health of our national economy, growing sales of farm products overseas will fuel the growth of rural economies here at home. Two very important trade negotiations are underway right now: talks with the EU known as the Trans Atlantic Trade and Investment Partnership , and a separate set of negotiations with other Pacific Rim countries, known as the Trans-Pacific Partnership. Each of these agreements has the potential to vastly broaden markets for the goods produced by American farmers, ranchers and food companies. But to do so, negotiators must reach agreements that truly work for farmers, a goal that the cheese debate shows is more complex and delicate that it might appear on the surface. Misuse of geographical indicators is a perfect example of protectionism, and it's a trade barrier that simply must not be codified in any TTIP agreement meant to benefit American agriculture. Luckily, lawmakers overseeing the trade talks are having none of it. More than half of the U.S. Senate wrote negotiators last month and asserted they will reject any proposal that restricts these common names for cheeses. Unlike many industries in our increasingly service-based economy, agriculture results in tangible products - commodities, foodstuffs, fibers and fuels. American farmers and ranchers produce the best food in the world, and selling it to the 95 percent of people who live outside our borders is enormously beneficial for both sellers and buyers. But to be beneficial to agriculture, TTIP and TPP must address potential trade barriers like geographic indicators, sanitary and phytosanitary issues and even standards for genetically modified crops in ways that are productive and take into account the diversity of our agriculture industries and our consumers. When ag trade works, the value to U.S. producers and their customers is enormous. But if these critical issues aren't addressed, an agreement could be just stinky cheese. Back to news

On a trip to Dallas from BWI last week, to my surprise, I was sitting next to Ray Lewis of the Ravens. He was on his way to the Pro Bowl in Hawaii, and I'm sure it was a bittersweet trip for him. Mr. Lewis accommodated anyone and everyone who asked for an autograph with respect and dignity. He was most kind and considerate, even while being interrupted during a telephone call for an autograph while we were sitting at the gate. I did take the liberty of congratulating him on a great season, and he shook my hand with appreciation. He handled himself as the professional he is, and never once during his private moments was he upset with anyone who approached him.
There are some great defensive linebackers that have defined NFL teams over the years, such as Ray Nitschke with the Green Bay Packers, Dick Butkus of the Chicago Bears, and Sam Huff of the New York Giants. Included in that list will be the city of Baltimore's Ray Lewis. He will be in the minds of many fans and players the definition of Baltimore and it's rich connection to the game this town loves.

It is never easy replacing a legend, someone whose name is synonomous with the program.
As they say, though, someone has to do it.
In this case, former UConn player Kevin Ollie is replacing Jim Calhoun as UConn men's basketball coach.
Calhoun is in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame, won three national titles (1999, 2004, 2010), took the Huskies from nowhere to everywhere. Called by some the greatest building job in college basketball history, what Calhoun did was leave his mark on the nation, the state and his players, one of whom was Ollie.
Ollie figures to be a lot like Calhoun. Ollie had to fight for everyhing he got in the NBA and what he got was a long career. Calhoun is a fighter who respects hard work. Ollie always has worked hard.

When slipped on the end of a crankshaft, these specially designed sockets let you use a 1/2" drive ratchet or breaker bar to rotate the engine assembly. Our sockets also have the unique feature to hold our degree wheels or any wheel with a 1" or larger center hole. The knurled retaining nut actually sandwiches the degree wheel and holds it in place. This can then be loosened while on the crank snout so that you can turn the degree wheel independent of the engine, which is really handy when finding TDC.

Ribble Cycles - since 1897!
Ribble Cycles are one of the oldest bike shops in the world, starting in 1897 in Preston, Lancashire, and are perhaps best known for their exceptional value own brand road bikes.
In 1987 (just the 90 years after forming!) they started a mail order side to their business, which helped them to expand - and as per the rest of their competition, launched their website in 2001. In order to deal with the increase in business, the company moved to Bamber Bridge, which resulted in the closure of their Watery Lane shop, and eventual upsizing to yet another warehouse in Leach Place.
In terms of actual cycling, Ribble have historically sponsored some of the most iconic riders in UK and world cycling history; Chris Boardman and Bradley Wiggins have both successfully competed on Ribble bikes. Other noted riders include the ladies Barcelona 92 Time trial team, the 1990's RT Italia race team and Steph Forrester at the Sydney Olympics. In short, they like to support the sport that they trade in!

LANCASTER, Pa. – Two turnovers proved to be the difference as Gettysburg handed Franklin & Marshall a 28-14 defeat in the Centennial Conference (CC) football season finale for both squads. F&M ends its season with a 3-7 overall, 3-6 CC record while the Bullets closed out 2011 with 6-4, 6-3 CC mark.
On the seventh play of F&M's first series John Harrison threw a backwards pass toLamont Jackson which bounce off Jackson's hands and was recovered by Larry DelViscio at the F&M 20. The Bullets capitalized four plays later when Kyle Whitmoyer connected with John Pesce on a five-yard pass to give Gettysburg a 7-0 lead.
F&M answered on its ensuing possession with a 94-yard drive. Jackson racked up 54 yards on four carries on the drive; with the last carry resulting in a seven-yard score to even the game at 7-7.
After a three-and-out by the Bullets, F&M was poised to strike again, driving down to the Gettysburg six with a first-and-goal. Two plays later, Hugo Nolasco picked off Harrison at the two. The Bullets needed just eight plays to drive 98 yards which was capped off by a Freddy Caruso four-yard run to give the Gettysburg a 14-7 edge early in the second quarter and into the halftime break.
Gettysburg went up 21-7 on its opening drive in the second half. Whitmoyer hit John Pesce for an 11-yard strike to cap of an 11-play, 71-yard drive.
F&M responded on its next possession to cut the deficit to 21-14. The Diplomats marched 60 yards down the field on nine plays and Harrison hit John Kaschak for a nine yard score.
The Bullets sealed the game with a 94-yard drive in fourth quarter that ended with a one-yard run by Ted Delia.
Saturday marked the final game for 13 seniors. The class of 2012 amassed a 22-20 mark over four years with back-to-back ECAC appearances. Two of them, Harrison and Kaschak left with their names all over F&M's record book.
Kaschak moved up on two career lists on the day. Kaschak picked up 30 yards on 13 carriers and moved into the No. 2 spot on all-time career rushing list. The senior finished his career with 2,384 yards and is only second to Andy Surtz's ' 2,913 set in 1996. Kaschak's touchdown in third quarter tied him with Keith Wert '77 on the all-time touchdowns scored list with 29.
Harrison owns just about every single passing mark in F&M history. The senior signal caller is the leader in attempts (1,298), completions (856), yards (8,886), percentage (65.9) and touchdowns (87).
Another milestone was reached today as C.T. Marsh became the all-time sack leader in F&M history with a sack today. Matt DesChamps '92 previously held the honor with 25.5; Marsh has 26 sacks for his career.
Jackson finished with 98 yards on 11 carriers with a touchdown. Harrison went 22-for-35 for 241 yards with Tim Muller catching nine of those for 109 yards.
Brian Velasco tallied a game-high 11 stops with an interception. Brendan Wenerter had eight stops and Ty Savastio finished with seven. Nick Barbieri and Marsh had an identical six tackles, one sack and two tackles for loss.
