Endangered Species Program
Conserving and restoring threatened and endangered species and their ecosystems
Section 7 Consultation
A Brief Explanation
The Endangered Species Act (ESA) directs all Federal agencies to work to conserve endangered and threatened species and to use their authorities to further the purposes of the Act. Section 7 of the Act, called "Interagency Cooperation," is the mechanism by which Federal agencies ensure the actions they take, including those they fund or authorize, do not jeopardize the existence of any listed species.
Informal Consultation
Under Section 7, Federal agencies must consult with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (Service) when any action the agency carries out, funds, or authorizes (such as through a permit) may affect a listed endangered or threatened species. This process usually begins as informal consultation. A Federal agency, in the early stages of project planning, approaches the Service and requests informal consultation. Discussions between the two agencies may include what types of listed species may occur in the proposed action area, and what effect the proposed action may have on those species.
If the Federal agency, after discussions with the Service, determines that the proposed action is not likely to affect any listed species in the project area, and if the Service concurs, the informal consultation is complete and the proposed project moves ahead. If it appears that the agencys action may affect a listed species, that agency may then prepare a biological assessment to assist in its determination of the projects effect on a species.
Formal Consultation and the Biological Opinion
When a Federal agency determines, through a biological assessment or other review, that its action is likely to adversely affect a listed species, the agency submits to the Service a request for formal consultation. During formal consultation, the Service and the agency share information about the proposed project and the species likely to be affected. Formal consultation may last up to 90 days, after which the Service will prepare a biological opinion on whether the proposed activity will jeopardize the continued existence of a listed species. The Service has 45 days after completion of formal consultation to write the opinion.
In making a determination on whether an action will result in jeopardy, the Service begins by looking at the current status of the species, or "baseline." Added to the baseline are the various effects direct, indirect, interrelated, and interdependent of the proposed Federal action. The Service also examines the cumulative effects of other non-Federal actions that may occur in the action area, including state, tribal, local, or private activities that are reasonably certain to occur in the project area.
What is Jeopardy?
The Services analysis is then measured against the definition of jeopardy. Under the ESA, jeopardy occurs when an action is reasonably expected, directly or indirectly, to diminish a species numbers, reproduction, or distribution so that the likelihood of survival and recovery in the wild is appreciably reduced.
Alternatives and Incidental Take
When the Service makes a jeopardy determination, it also provides the consulting Federal agency with reasonable and prudent alternative actions. These alternatives are often developed with input and assistance from the Federal agency. Alternatives must:
In some cases, the Service finds that an action may adversely affect a species, but not jeopardize its continued existence. When this happens, the Service prepares an incidental take statement for the proposed Federal project. Under most circumstances, the ESA prohibits take, which is defined as harming (includes killing) or harassing a listed species. Incidental take take that results from a Federal action but is not the purpose of the action may be allowed when the Service approves it through an incidental take statement. The statement includes the amount or extent of anticipated take due to the Federal action, reasonable and prudent measures to minimize the take, and terms and conditions that must be observed when implementing those measures.
The Next Step
After the Service issues its biological opinion, the Federal agency then decides how to proceed. With an opinion that determines adverse effects, the agency can adopt the reasonable and prudent measures outlined in an incidental take statement and proceed with the project. If the Service makes a jeopardy determination, the Federal agency has several options:
A Federal agency may apply for an exemption if it believes it cannot comply with the requirements of the biological opinion. The application is considered by the Endangered Species Committee, comprised of Cabinet-level members from various Federal agencies and administered by the Interior Departments Assistant Secretary for Policy, Management and Budget. To be considered by the Committee for an exemption, a Federal agency must have carried out the consultation in good faith and made a reasonable effort to develop and consider modifications or alternatives to the proposed action. It must also have conducted any required biological assessment, and refrained from making any irreversible or irretrievable commitment of resources to the project during consultation.

Theodor Hänsch was born in Heidelberg, Germany, on October 30, 1941. As a young boy Hänsch lived in a house once owned by chemist Robert Bunsen. An experiment set up by Hänsch's father to explain Bunsen's contributions to chemistry kindled an early interest in light and atoms in the young Hänsch. As he grew older he eagerly read everything from popular science magazines to science textbooks and ran his own experiments in chemistry, physics, and electronics.
At the University of Heidelberg Hänsch studied physics and mathematics. After receiving the Vordiplom in 1963, Hänsch worked as an assistant in the laboratory of Hans Kopfermann and became increasingly intrigued by the newly invented laser. When an opportunity arose to study gas lasers at the nearby Institute of Applied Physics at Albert-Überle-Strasse Hänsch signed on. For his diploma research, Hänsch studied saturation effects in the gas laser medium by observing the light emitted spontaneously to the side. He determined a number of previously unknown radiative transition rates in the neon atom. He received his doctorate in 1969. Much of the early work Hänsch undertook is still cited because it laid the groundwork for the understanding of phenomena such as lasers without inversion, electromagnetically induced transparency, and slow light.
In March 1970, Hänsch left Germany to work with Arthur L. Schawlow at Stanford University as a NATO postdoctoral fellow. Hänsch's time at Stanford put him directly at the heart of a revolution in laser spectroscopy. He acquired an early commercial nitrogen laser and spent six months experimenting with a range of configurations and applications. Towards the end of 1970, he began to focus his efforts on the goal of making a widely tunable dye laser highly monochromatic.
Other experiments involved ultrasensitive fluorescence spectroscopy enabling detection of light from single atoms, sensitive intracavity absorption spectroscopy with a multimode dye laser, the first demonstration of continuous wave Doppler-fee two-photon spectroscopy, and Doppler-free polarization spectroscopy. The roots of the laser frequency comb can be traced to Hänsch's years at Stanford.
In 1978, Hänsch went on sabbatical to the University of Munich with an Alexander von Humboldt Senior U.S. Scientist Award. Almost a decade later he accepted an offer to join the Ludwig-Maximilian University in Munich as a professor of experimental physics and to build a new Division of Laser Spectroscopy at the Max-Planck-Institute.
During the 1990s Hänsch's team focused on the quantum physics of ultracold atoms. His group demonstrated and explored two- and three-dimensional optical lattices bound by light; they explored new tricks for laser cooling below the recoil limit; and in the late 1990s realized Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of rubidium atoms in a novel magnetic QUIC trap. They later exploited the high magnetic stability of the small trap in the first continuous wave atom laser. Work on microscopic magnetic traps to manipulate cold paramagnetic atoms led to an effective method for loading cold atoms into microscopic traps, and a working conveyer belt for atoms. In June 2001, Hänsch's group was the first to achieve Bose-Einstein condensation entirely on a microfabricated atom chip.
Hänsch has earned many awards for his work including the Nobel Prize for Physics in 2005, the Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz Prize, OSA's Frederic Ives Medal, IEEE's I.I. Rabi Award, the Philip Morris Research Prize, and numerous honorary degrees. His many scientific society memberships include the European Academy of Arts and Sciences, Academia Europea, International Raoul Wallenberg Foundation, and the U.S. National Academy of Sciences.

A man of many interests "from teaching medical jurisprudence to writing literary reviews for a popular New York newspaper" Judge Willard Bartlett brought a diverse intellect to the New York Court of Appeals. Judge Bartlett's literary background served him well in his judicial career. Upon his death in 1925, the Court remarked that his "clear, forceful and yet gracious literary style . . . is due in part without doubt to his great love for books and general literature, and to his occasional literary reviews and criticisms published in the daily press." With his extensive legal and life experience, Judge Bartlett presided over some of New York's most important early 20th Century cases.
Early Life
Willard Bartlett was born in Uxbridge, Massachusetts on October 14, 1846, the eldest son of Agnes Willard and William O. Bartlett. His father, a prominent New York lawyer, served as defense counsel to the infamous William "Boss" Tweed. Agnes Willard was the granddaughter of Dr. Samuel Willard, who represented Worcester County at the Massachusetts convention in 1788 to determine whether to ratify the United States Constitution. Willard Bartlett had one younger brother, Franklin Bartlett, who rose to the rank of Colonel in the military. Franklin also was a prominent attorney and served as a representative from New York to the 53rd and 54th United States Congresses.
In 1857, the Bartlett family moved to Suffolk County on New York's Long Island where William O. Bartlett had purchased a 1,000-acre farm. A history of the property notes that William O. Bartlett "became legendary for building a spur from the railroad, which extended onto his estate. He kept his workers busy by having them build several stone walls on his estate."
Willard Bartlett was a graduate of Polytechnic Institute in Brooklyn and Columbia College in New York. One year before his graduation from Columbia in 1869, Bartlett was admitted to the New York Bar. He married Mary Fairbanks Buffum on October 26, 1870 in Brooklyn, and the couple had two daughters, Maud and Agnes.
Although he concentrated on his legal studies, Bartlett earnestly pursued his literary interests. While at Columbia College, he was a member of the Philolexian Society, which was established by associates of Alexander Hamilton in 1802 to improve the "oratory, composition and forensic discussion" of its members. Bartlett also wrote literary reviews for the New York Sun, a popular newspaper that published the famous editorial "Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus" in 1897. The paper also published a series of articles in 1835, claiming that the Moon harbored life. The fictitious articles became known as the "Great Moon Hoax." In his capacity as a literary critic for the Sun, Bartlett's apparent last review was of Frank M. O'Brien's book, "The Story of the Sun," which detailed the Great Moon Hoax. Bartlett's brother, Franklin, served as counsel to the New York Sun. Both Willard and Franklin apparently developed a close friendship with Charles A. Dana, the newspaper's controversial owner. Employing his literary background, Willard Bartlett helped Dana revise the American CyclopaediaCa late-19th Century "dictionary of general knowledge."
Legal Career
After graduating from Columbia College, Bartlett started his legal career in association with Elihu Root, the esteemed jurist who later served as a United States Senator and as Secretary of War for President Theodore Roosevelt. Root also won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1912. Bartlett practiced with Root from 1869 to 1883. Both Root and Bartlett, among others, served with William O. Bartlett as defense counsel to William "Boss" Tweed. Prior to Tweed's trial, the defense attorneys petitioned presiding judge Noah Davis to recuse himself from the case on the ground of his bias against Tweed. After he sentenced Tweed, Judge Davis held several of the defense attorneysCincluding Elihu Root and Willard BartlettC guilty of contempt for bringing the petition. The defense attorneys, however, were not subjected to disciplinary proceedings. Specifically, Judge Davis relieved Elihu Root and Willard Bartlett from any penalties "on the ground of youth and domination by their seniors."
In 1883, apparently not worse for wear after the Tweed trial, Bartlett was elected as a justice at the New York Supreme Court in Kings County and once again in 1897. He presided over the trial of John Y. McKane, the so-called "Czar of Coney Island." Among other things, McKane and his cohorts allegedly intimidated voters at polling booths and submitted names of deceased persons for the voting tally. Accordingly, McKane was charged with conspiracy to commit voting fraud. Judge Bartlett held that, despite a growing trend among other states to hold to the contrary, in "the case of an executed conspiracy to commit a felony the conspiracy, which is a misdemeanor, merges in the felony" (People v. McKane, 7 Misc. 478, 479 [1894]).
While on the bench, Judge Bartlett impressed his peers. The following passage indicates the esteem in which he was held: "His learning in the law was deep and profound and he had that qualification born in him and not acquired which is really necessary for the making of a great juristCa natural instinct for law and for justice." Judge Bartlett's judicial style was described as "methodical and prompt; in speech he is deliberate but not slow; on the bench he is precise without being tedious, expository but not obtrusive." Held in such high regard, upon the creation of the Appellate Division in 1896, Judge Bartlett, along with Charles F. Brown, Calvin R. Pratt, Edgar M. Cullen and Edward W. Hatch, was assigned to that court for the Second Department.
During his time on the bench, Judge Bartlett also pursued his interest in the medical field. In 1898, Judge Bartlett began teaching medical jurisprudence at the Long Island College Hospital. In a paper that he read before the New York State Medical Association, Judge Bartlett addressed concerns regarding medical expert evidence. Hoping to improve the quality of such evidence, he wrote:
"I should be sorry to feel that the prospect of reform was hopeless. There is one direction in which it seems to me brighter than any other. You have a code of medical ethics which every physician and surgeon is bound in all professional honor to observe. By that code you regulate your own conduct in the practice of medicine, and insist that those who join the ranks of your profession from year to year shall agree to regulate theirs. No statute could practically be more binding. Why may you not extend its provisions so as to embrace the conduct of the medical man when he assumes the role of expert witness?"
Despite his frequent forays into the medical and literary fields, Judge Bartlett did not lose focus of his judicial duties. In 1906, Governor Frank W. Higgins named Judge Bartlett to the Court of Appeals. Upon Judge Dennis O'Brien's retirement in 1907, Judge Bartlett was elected to the Court. In 1914, he became Chief Judge, succeeding his lifelong friend Edgar M. Cullen. In an address to the New York Bar Association, Judge Bartlett provided a detailed glimpse into a typical Monday for a Court of Appeals Judge in the early 1900s: "Monday, 7:30 a.m. By coupe to Grand Central Terminal in Manhattan. 8:30 a.m., by Empire Express to Albany and there to room at the Ten Eyck. About 1 p.m. luncheon, and thereafter to the Court of Appeals rooms, where the Judges put on their gowns and go into court at 2 o'clock. Listen to the argument of causes from 2 p.m. until 6 p.m., when court adjourns. 6 to 7 p.m. walk an hour or so for exercise or go home and take a nap before dinner, according to weather and inclination. Between 7 and 8 dinner. After dinner, study the cases of the day, the records having been brought to the Judges' room by the court messenger. Give special attention to the case assigned to you, so as to be ready if possible to report thereon at the consultation on Tuesday. Between 10 p.m. and 12 midnight go to bed."
Throughout his legal career, Judge Bartlett remained mindful of the lawyer's important role in society and the need to maintain one's integrity in the legal profession. In his Albany Law School commencement address in 1907, Judge Bartlett, quoting United States Supreme Court Justice John M. Harlan, stated that "'an advocate . . . owes a duty to the court of which he is an officer and to the community of which he is a member. Above all, he owes a duty to his own conscience.' The fulfillment of that duty is the sum and substance of the ethical obligation of counsel." Judge Bartlett served with distinction as Chief Judge until 1916 when he reached the age limit for judicial service under the New York Constitution.
Famous Decisions
In 1906, the Court of Appeals was presented with the issue of whether impossibility could be a defense to the charge of attempting to commit a crime. In People v. Jaffe (185 NY 497), the defendant, Samuel Jaffe, attempted to purchase 20 yards of cloth, which he believed to be stolen material. The cloth, however, had been returned to the rightful owner at the time of Jaffe's attempted purchase. Jaffe, nevertheless, was convicted of an attempt to receive stolen property, and the Appellate Division affirmed his conviction. Jaffe appealed to the Court of Appeals, which reversed the conviction. Writing for the Court, Judge Bartlett reasoned:
The purchase, therefore, if it had been completely effected, could not constitute the crime of receiving stolen property, knowing it to be stolen, since there could be no such thing as knowledge on the part of the defendant of a non-existent fact, although there might be a belief on his part that the fact existed. . . .
. . . A particular belief cannot make that a crime which is not so in the absence of such belief. Take, for example, the case of a young man who attempts to vote, and succeeds in casting his vote under the belief that he is but twenty years of age when he is in fact over twenty-one and a qualified voter. His intent to commit a crime, and his belief that he was committing a crime, would not make him guilty of any offense under these circumstances, although the moral turpitude of the transaction on his part would be just as great as it would if he were in fact under age. So, also, in the case of a prosecution under the statute of this state, which makes it rape in the second degree for a man to perpetrate an act of sexual intercourse with a female not his wife under the age of eighteen years. There could be no conviction if it was established upon the trial that the female was in fact over the age of eighteen years, although the defendant believed her to be younger and intended to commit the crime
(id. at 500-502). The decision was superseded by the 1967 Penal Law, removing impossibility as a defense to the charge of an attempted crime (see People v. Leichtweis, 59 AD2d 383 [1977]).
Judge Bartlett issued the lone dissent in the seminal products liability case, McPherson v. Buick Motor Co. (217 NY 382 [1916]). In McPherson, the defendant car manufacturer sold an automobile to a retail dealer that, in turn, sold the car to the plaintiff-purchaser. While the plaintiff was driving the car, it collapsed and the plaintiff was subsequently injured. One of the car's wheels was made of defective wood, and its spokes crumbled into fragments. The defendant manufacturer had purchased the wheel from another manufacturer. The plaintiff sued the defendant manufacturer for negligence. The issue presented in the case was whether the defendant manufacturer owed a duty of care to anyone other than the immediate purchaserCin this case, the retail dealer. The Court affirmed the determination of the courts below that the defendant manufacturer was not absolved from a duty of inspection simply because it had purchased the wheel from a reputable manufacturer. The Court famously held, "[t]here is nothing anomalous in a rule which imposes upon A, who has contracted with B, a duty to C and D and others according as he knows or does not know that the subject-matter of the contract is intended for their use" (id. at 393).
In his dissent, Judge Bartlett argued that well-established case law demanded a different result. He reasoned:
I do not see how we can uphold the judgment in the present case without overruling what has been so often said by this court and other courts of like authority in reference to the absence of any liability for negligence on the part of the original vendor of an ordinary carriage to any one except his immediate vendee. The absence of such liability was the very point actually decided in the English case of Winterbottom v. Wright, and the illustration quoted from the opinion of Chief Judge Ruggles in Thomas v. Winchester assumes that the law on the subject was so plain that the statement would be accepted almost as a matter of course. In the case at a bar the defective wheel on an automobile moving only eight miles an hour was not any more dangerous to the occupants of the car than a similarly defective wheel would be to the occupants of a carriage drawn by a horse at the same speed; and yet unless the courts have been all wrong on this question up to the present time there would be no liability to strangers to the original sale in the case of the horse-drawn carriage" (id. at 399-400 [citations omitted]).
After retiring as Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals in 1916, Judge Bartlett rejoined Elihu Root in the practice of law. Judge Bartlett also served as an official referee in State cases. On October 26, 1920, he and his wife Agnes celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary with a reception at their home.
Judge Bartlett died on January 17, 1925 at his residence in Brooklyn. He had been suffering from heart disease that had been aggravated by a cold. Services for Judge Bartlett took place at the Unitarian Church of the Saviour in Brooklyn, and the church was filled despite a snow storm, according to a report in the New York Times. Among the honorary pallbearers were Elihu Root, former Governor Nathan L. Miller, then-Chief Judge of the Court of Appeals Frank H. Hiscock and then-Associate Judge of the Court of Appeals Benjamin N. Cardozo. After the services, Judge Bartlett was interred at Greenwood Cemetery in Brooklyn.
Judge Bartlett was considered a man of great dignity who valued his role on the judiciary. In remembrance, the Court noted that the, "office to him was one of the most important in the gift of the people through which to serve his State and Nation. The judiciary to him was a sacred calling to which he consecrated his life, forgetful of personal gain or of the monetary rewards which might have been his at the bar . . . Such a life was an inspiration."
Judge Bartlett had two daughtersCAgnes and MaudCneither of whom had children. Judge Bartlett's niece, Bertha King Bartlett Benkard, gave birth to a son, Franklin Bartlett Benkard, who married Laura Derby Dupee. Their son James Willard Bartlett Benkard served as a law clerk to Court of Appeals Judge Charles Breitel and is a partner at Davis Polk & Wardwell.

Mysterious ulcers on Alberto Fuentes' legs forced him to give up work and the things he loved. After seven years of failed treatments, he came to National Jewish Health where he finally found answers.
Exceptional care for a challenging infection
When Tommy Thomas of Georgia was diagnosed with Mycobacterium abscessus, he asked his doctor, "What would you tell your husband if he was diagnosed with this?" His doctor said, "We would go to National Jewish Health in Denver." After treatment and lung resection surgery in Denver, Tommy's life is back to normal.
'I thought that life would never be the same, but now it is.'
Gina Ladinsky lived with bronchiectasis and MAC for years before finding the answers and care she needed at National Jewish Health. After undergoing lung resection surgery, there is no sign of infection. Today, Gina is focused on staying healthy by exercising every day – whether it is surfing, biking, hiking or walking.
'There is no other place in the world like it.'
More than eight years after being diagnosed with Mycobacterium avium complex, Deborah Schwartz is feeling great thanks to the care she received at National Jewish Health.
A "Picc"-Me-Up During Treatment for MAC
Marcia O'Bryan's pursuit of "the best" care for her respiratory condition not only guided her to National Jewish Health; it also led to her discovery of an innovative medical product that would become a thriving business.
'National Jewish Health Saved My Life'
Marian Sofferin, 57, has experienced far more than her share of health problems over the years, but none puzzled her doctors in Seattle as much as Mycobacterium Avium Complex, or MAC. Then, she discovered National Jewish Health.
She finally found help for her bronchiectasis
While trying to treat her bronchiectasis, Connie Hofmann visited eight doctors before finding help at National Jewish Health.
Two Second Chances at Life
After a shocking diagnosis of tuberculosis, National Jewish Health saved W. Merrill Carter's life not once, but twice.
"The best" care for a MAC infection
Colombe M. Nicholas learned about National Jewish Health as a supporter at benefit dinners in New York. Years later, when she needed expert care for a lung infection, she knew where to go.

The Laguna Community Concert Band scored another hit performance Monday at the Festival of Arts.
The concert was a musical triumph that few would have imagined when the idea of a community band was first conceived over a cup of coffee in 1998 at Zinc Café. Founders Bill Nicholls, Teresa Marino and Carol Reynolds had come up with an idea whose time was long overdue.
In the beginning the band had to beg to be heard. Many in the audience at the early concerts were there because of their friendship with the original band members: local conductor Ed Peterson, musicians Dennis White, Ken Hanson, Sheryl Caverly, Niko Theris and the three founders.
The band has since grown to 60-plus members. Some of them, like Reynolds, a pianist, hadn't touched another instrument in years. Now she sits in a full brass section, playing the French horn.
"Who would have thunk it?" she said.
The band is always looking for good musicians. Rehearsals are held from 6 to 8 p.m. Tuesdays at Laguna Beach High School. It's listed as a class through the Irvine Valley College Emeritus Institute, headed by Dave Anderson.
And the band welcomes enthusiastic guest conductors.
"We've been practicing for you," band President Matt Wood told Mayor Toni Iseman, who was invited to conduct "God Bless America" at Monday's concert.
Iseman was presented with a baton and a certificate conferring honorary band membership as a token of the band's appreciation. It was her second appearance with the band.
"It is one of the perks of being mayor," said Iseman, a music lover and mother of a musician.
Arts Commissioner Pat Kollenda has been tapped as guest conductor for the band's next gig at the festival Aug. 17. Kollenda will also serve as mistress of ceremonies for the performance, a task undertaken Monday by Lona Ingwerson.
"It is a big undertaking to get everything here and set up," said Jean Paris, wife of band member Jack Paris.
The musicians tote in their own music stands. Chairs, the backdrop, the scores and larger instruments, such as the vibraphone, have to be trucked in.
"It takes about three hours," Jean Paris said.
Sometimes longer.
On Monday, Steve Calhoun got stuck in traffic with his restored vibraphone. Vocalist Linda Hughes stepped in to take his place in the first set for "Blue Moon."
The set opened with the "The Star-Spangled Banner," but ranged from a John Philip Sousa march to Gary Gould's pennywhistle "Rose of Tralee" solo, to a tribute to swing band-era clarinetist Artie Shaw that included "Begin the Beguine," but not "Summit Ridge Drive," which would have been so appropriate in Laguna.
"This is for my wife, Emily," clarinetist John Lasser said.
Since its inception, the band has also fostered smaller ensembles: the SwingSet, Laguna Flutes, Third Street Strutters and a brass quintet.
SwingSet was also featured on the program, with Ginger Hatfield vocalizing
"Ginger began singing on Laguna Beach stages, starting in the third grade at El Morro," Ingwerson said.
Hatfield also performs in "Lagunatics."
Hughes was backed by the full band for her rendition of "I Love Being Here With You," followed by "Tico Tuba" with Charlie Warren on tuba and then songs from "Fiddler on the Roof, sung by Lisa Morrice and Jeffry Nottke.
Warren again was showcased in the Strutters' version of "When the Saints Go Marching In."
SwingSet featured guitarist Alan Schenk on "Tangerine," Gould on the alto sax favorite "Harlem Nocturne," Hatfield singing "Orange Colored Sky" and Calhoun on "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself A Letter."
The final three selections included Hughes singing the Peggy Lee classic, "Why Don't You Do Right?", "Chimes of Liberty" and a rousing "William Tell Overture."
The band now plays about 20 concerts a year but has never been asked to perform at the Music in the Park Concert Series at Bluebird Park.
Its summer series has included the Memorial Day Concert on the Cobblestones at Main Beach; the annual Patriotic Concert on July 4 at the Sawdust Art Festival; a performance July 9 at the Murray Community Center in Mission Viejo; and Monday's appearance at the festival.
The big Swing Band and the Laguna Flutes will play from noon to 2 p.m. Saturday at Art-A-Fair; from 5 to 6:15 p.m. Aug. 7 at the Huntington Beach Summer Concert Series; and from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Aug. 17 on the Festival of Arts Green.
The nonprofit is funded by grants and donations. Contributions are welcomed.
"To quote Tennessee Williams, we depend on the kindness of strangers," Ingwerson said.
For more information about the band, visit http://lccband.org/ or call 1-888-308-8324, ext. 400.
'Vapping' draws a crowd
E-Cig City, which began selling electronic cigarettes in March in Laguna, hosted a get-together Saturday at the shop at 1970 S. Coast Hwy.
It was standing-room-only for aficionados of "vapping," a verb coined by the use of juices vaporized in the e-cigs.
"Everyone here was a cigarette smoker," said Donna Pounds.
Many of the customers had come from out of town.
Pounds is a San Diego resident. Frank McGinnis came from Tustin.
McGinnis starting vapping with purchases made online.
"I bought a lot of overpriced stuff that I knew nothing about," McGinnis said. "When I got it, I didn't like it, but it was my own fault for buying online.
"The industry has grown so much. It takes a year of study to figure out what everything is. Here in the store, I can talk to someone who is knowledgeable and make an educated purchase."
E-cigs are billed as the newest technology in the fight against tobacco smoking, but they are not usually nicotine-free.
The store features basic e-cigarettes in 10 colors, one of them with a pretend filter, the batteries that charge them, accessories, pipes and little bottles of flavored juices called Pink Spot Vapors.
The amount of nicotine is listed on the bottle. Amounts range from zero to 36 milligrams per milliliter.
Juice is poured into the electronic cigarette. They boil and become vapor.
There are no age restrictions on purchases, but the industry has a policy of not selling to customers younger than 18, E-Cig City owner Jason Schaeffer said.
Schaeffer is a resident of Laguna with his wife, Nguyen Thi Honk Linh, and stepchildren, Aaron Oberndorf, who graduated last year from Laguna Beach High School, and Julia, who will be a senior next semester.
The advantages of e-cigs are claimed to be the pleasure and sensation of smoking without the tar, stink, ashes, yellow teeth, foul breath or secondhand smoke.
OUR LAGUNA is a regular feature of the Laguna Beach Coastline Pilot. Contributions are welcomed. Call (949) 380-4321 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.

STERLING – Lonely. Cold. Hopeless.
That's how a Sterling man – who did not want to be identified – described his 3 years on the streets, struggling to find work.
Today, he lives at Firehouse of God Ministries – still without steady employment.
The Rev. Randy L. Ernst of Sterling wants to change that. He plans to launch a new ministry called Salvage Operation: Souls – a mission to "employ the unemployable" in the Sauk Valley.
Workers will sell auto parts to earn income and start a new life. They will include the homeless; people with criminal backgrounds, including the recently paroled; and recipients of drug and alcohol rehabilitation.
Ernst, a 56-year-old associate pastor of The Big Red Church, relates to the down and out. Years ago, he lived in a van – scared and alone – for 4 months.
"I've been there," he said. "I know what that feels like."
Ernst recently shared his vision with residents of Firehouse of God Ministries, which provides meals, housing and rehab services.
He wants to hire people to dismantle donated vehicles, catalog parts and stock them in a warehouse. SOS will receive vehicles from individuals, companies and salvage pools.
Through SOS, Ernst will marry his passions – ministry and cars.
"I've always been a car guy," he said.
Workers will sell parts to auto body and repair shops, "do-it-yourselfers" and Internet customers. Unusable parts will be sold for scrap metal. SOS will be the only salvage operation within a 1-hour drive in any direction, Ernst said.
Sales will help pay workers' wages.
Another Firehouse resident – who also did not want to be identified – looks forward to the opportunity. Employers do not consider him an ideal candidate because he has two DUIs.
"You've got to have income to have a life, to pay your bills," he said. "It would make me feel good about myself again.
"Everybody deserves a second chance. People make mistakes."
Ernst agreed.
"To have to pay for those mistakes for the rest of your life is unconscionable," he said.
SOS staff will train workers to ship and receive, procure parts, control inventory, enter data, drive forklifts and tow trucks, weld, cut, operate air tools, and clean facilities. They will work in an environment free of drugs, tobacco and alcohol.
SOS board members and volunteers will mentor workers to instill values, character, morals and integrity. Board members include the Rev. Jeff Coester, pastor of the Big Red Church; the Rev. Brian Tribley, pastor of Firehouse of God Ministries; Linda Dirks of Prophetstown, who serves as secretary and treasurer; and Mark Zumdahl, a Sterling attorney.
Workers will acquire skills for future employment and receive a credible reference.
"That's worth its weight in gold," Ernst said.
SOS will operate under Firehouse's nonprofit status until securing its own. SOS also needs to secure a workspace and insurance. Ernst seeks financial support from the community to make the ministry possible.
The SOS slogan is "Selling Parts … Investing in People."
To help
Leaders of Salvage Operation: Souls request prayers and financial contributions to pay for wages, rent, utilities and insurance. Cash donations are tax deductible – dollar for dollar.
Make checks payable to "Firehouse of God Ministries" and write "SOS" in the memo-line. Donations may be mailed to Firehouse of God, 306 Fifth Ave., Sterling, IL 61081.
In addition, vehicles – any year, make or model – are "wanted dead or alive." SOS will tow vehicles for free.
Volunteers are needed.
The Rev. Randy Ernst is available to present to churches and organizations.
For more information, go to www.sosautoparts.org or call Ernst at 586-260-5074.
Not many people have "invested" in the man who lived on the streets for 3 years. People judge him, he said.
But not Ernst.
"We care about you," he told the men after his presentation. "We love you."

text: Rules to Manage Employees January 8, 2013 08:24 PM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Ed Clark Top Producer Business and Issues Editor Email Improve both worker and bottom-line performance Nothing is easy about managing employees, which becomes exceedingly important the larger your operation becomes. Improving how you manage your work force not only improves employee productivity, but also that of your farm. This can make your farm a desired worker destination so the best and brightest naturally gravitate toward you. The best rules for managing your work force, based on interviews with farm employee management consultants, are these: GIVE WORKERS RESPONSIBILITY, NOT JUST TASKS. "Many operations have grown to the point that to continue to grow and stay world class, they need people to take on more responsibility," says Bob Milligan, a farm management consultant based in Minnesota and professor emeritus of ag economics at Cornell University. This requires a systems approach in which the farm's vision and mission are communicated. ENCOURAGE COMMUNICATION. It's important to have regular weekly or monthly employee meetings, at which time feedback and expectations are provided in a specific way. Provide regular feedback, but go beyond either criticism or accolades, Milligan says. If a goal is not met, reasons why need to be taken into account, so that the only feedback categories are not just "positive" and "negative." A problem for many farm owners is that their expertise is often crop or livestock production. "Corn plants and cows don't need feedback," he says. Too often, employees don't know what is expected of them, says Felix Soriano, president of APN Consulting, a Pennsylvania farm employee management consultant. Poor communication is often the cause of high turnover rates, which can be costly, he explains. BECOME A GREAT PLACE TO WORK. "You want to become the Microsoft of agriculture," Milligan says. "Microsoft is such a great place to work that it doesn't have to advertise." This means that supervisors must be very good at how they deal with employees. While there is no relevant data on agriculture per se, in the general economy more than two-thirds of people who voluntarily leave their job do so not because they don't like the job, but because they have issues with their supervisors. GIVE JOBS MEANING. For those who have entered the work force post–baby boom—members of Generation X (born from 1965 to 1980) and Generation Y or "millennials" (born from 1981 to 2000), the most important characteristic of a job is that it has meaning. "There is a group of people unwilling to work at a job that doesn't have meaning for them," Milligan says. This is important because while overall unemployment is high for the economy, agriculture still has a shortage of quality talent. RECRUIT THE VERY BEST CANDIDATES AND INTERVIEW THEM PROPERLY. "Recruitment is marketing," Milligan says. The goal is to recruit a pool of people you can select from for your final decision, not just fill a slot. Recruitment involves more than taking out ads in magazines and newspapers, although this is important, Soriano says. Current employees, neighboring farms and colleges are other good sources for recruiting workers, he says. The interview process needs to be very specific, with carefully thought out questions that are written down. Part of the interview should be about characteristics the potential employee is looking for in a supervisor. CULTIVATE AND MOTIVATE. One common problem is that employers don't spend enough time cultivating relationships with workers. "Developing a relationship, caring about your employees beyond what kind of job they do, breeds loyalty and improves the overall quality of their work," says Shaun Duvall, a farm management consultant based in Wisconsin. Successful managers keep employees motivated, but that's not always easy. One technique Soriano likes is a negotiated performance appraisal. Unlike a traditional appraisal, the negotiated version can help you jointly develop a plan for performance expectations and improvement. BENEFIT FROM MISTAKES. When employees make a mistake, the situation is best used as an opportunity to motivate workers to improve, Duvall says. When a mistake happens, ask what was happening when it took place. Were your employees in a hurry, distracted or careless? What was going on in their minds? This is preferable to asking them why they did it, which will only elicit an excuse, she says. Duvall also suggests asking workers how they think the mistake has affected the entire farm. Try to not ask "yes" or "no" questions. "You are looking for thought and input from the employee," she says. DEVELOP A TOP TRAINING PROGRAM. Inadequate worker training is one of the top problems for farm employers, in Duvall's view. "People need to be trained; it can't be assumed they know how to do the job just because you do," she says. Overall, many producers lack knowledge about best employment practices, and some do not have an employee handbook, which Duvall believes is essential. It's not only employees who need to be trained; employers, too, need training on how to best manage their work force. "It takes more than just learning on the job," she adds.

SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - Jenna Green had her second double-double in the past three games, but it may have been her stellar defense that helped lead the UC Santa Barbara women's basketball team to Thursday's 57-46 victory over Cal State Fullerton at the Thunderdome.
Green finished with 12 points and 10 rebounds, but she also tallied five blocks and held two-time First Team All-Big West selection Toni Thomas to 4 of 19 shooting from the field as UCSB won its ninth straight in conference play.
UCSB improves to 14-7 overall and 9-0 in the Big West. Fullerton falls to 6-14, 3-6.
"Over the last month, Jenna has really found her rhythm and she simply does everything we need her to do," UCSB head coach Lindsay Gottlieb said. "She's so coachable and so smart out there - and on top of that she's pretty darn tough. She gets beat up a little bit and she gets some bumps and bruises but she plays through everything."
Green is averaging 17.5 points and 9 rebounds per game over the Gauchos' past four contests. She also had five assists on Thursday night, too.
Lauren Pedersen led the Gauchos with 15 points while also grabbing seven rebounds and handing out four assists. Jordan Franey contributed 10 points off the bench to go with nine rebounds.
UCSB held CSUF to 27.3% shooting from the field and a miserable 2-for-25 from beyond the three-point line. The Gauchos shot 45.2% from the floor and also outrebounded Fullerton 47-30. Whitney Warren had six boards while Sha'Rae Gibbons and Emilie Johnson each pulled down four rebounds.
"I've been following some of those numbers but I haven't really talked about it with the team because it's kind of hard to tell them how much better we need to get on defense when there are only four teams that are better," Gottlieb said, referring to UCSB entering the game fifth in the nation in field goal percentage defense. "I did tell them tonight as sort of a challenge. What an exciting thing, to say `We're fifth in the country and we can be better.' I thought we really responded well."
UCSB also went 17 of 23 from the free throw line.
The Gauchos next game is Saturday at 2 p.m. at the Thunderdome vs. UC Irvine. This is a Santa Barbara News-Press Kids to College game where every youngster under age 13 receives free admission. All fans also receive free fanbannas.
Tickets are available by calling (805) 893-UCSB, coming to the Ticket Office located inside the Intercollegiate Athletics building on campus or by clicking here.

With apparent marching orders, Mr. DNA leaves the conference room as most everyone else files out to go to their assignments. After signing out of the buildings new security perimeter, he begins sky-skating towards the hospital.
<<Jackson> Jackson, this is Mr. DNA. I noted that you wanted to be involved in the interview with Jerry Stairs. I didn't want you to feel that I was discounting your wishes or expertise in the matter; mostly my intent was to accede to Mainframe's suggestion to avoid upsetting him. This may actually prove more efficient, as I'll be able to start doing a chemical and molecular workup on the blood right away... on a different note, have you considered using the appellation "Roadrunner"?>
Jackson will have a limited amount of time to respond, before Mr. DNA closes the communication link, and then becomes busy at the hospital.
Also while in the air, Darren places a call to his sister, inviting her to come to Denver on business -and to visit, of course.
If his call doesn't go through, he will use Telepathy
After assuring Dr. McCallister that he will respect the patient's rights, Mr. DNA quietly enters the patient's room.
"Mr. Stairs, I'm known as Mr. DNA, and I work with the group known as Valor Unlimited. We have been asked by local police to assist them in locating the persons who are responsible for nearly killing you... may I sit down?"

Ian's Ticket and Figure
1967 - 1970
Claret and blue
were the original colours of
Crystal Palace Football Club.
They have been hand painted
onto Ian's player figure.
He stands ready
to strike the ball for Palace
at an important point
in the Club's history.
Palace joined the First Division
for the first time ever
in 1969.
Ian King
Ian has been
a Crystal Palace Football Club fan
as long as he can remember:
"Both my father and my mother
used to go and watch Palace
between the wars.
Then later they ran a grocery
and animal feed shop in Whitehorse Road
and the variety of things that we sold,
Palace Club used to come to us
for brooms to sweep the terraces
and for hay to feed the horses
which at that time
pulled the rollers etcetera
over the Palace pitch.
So I'd always been supporting Palace.
They'd been right down in the basement,
they'd had to apply for re-election
in the early 50s,
but they'd come back up
and 1969 was their first ever season
in the First Division.
At that time
Palace were developing

Global FDI flows picked up in the first half of 2015, increasing by 13% compared to the second half of 2014. If we exclude the drop in the first half of 2014, global flows have been on a rising trend since the first half of 2013.
Dans le cadre de la poursuite de l'effort qu'elle a engagé pour renforcer la confiance des marchés et l'intégrité des entreprises, l'OCDE a lancé en Asie la nouvelle version des Principes de gouvernance d'entreprise approuvée en septembre 2015 à la réunion des ministres des Finances des pays du G20.
Co-hosted by the Securities and Exchange Commission of Thailand (SEC), the Stock Exchange of Thailand (SET), and the Thai Institute of Directors (IOD) in partnership with the Government of Japan, the OECD-Asian Corporate Governance Roundtable is a unique platform for commitment by senior officials, regulators, and practitioners - including international and regional institutions and academics - to improving corporate governance in Asia.
The 2015 annual meeting of the OECD Russia Corporate Governance Roundtable took place in Moscow on 22 October. The discussions focused on implementation and monitoring of the 2014 Russian Code of Corporate Governance, corporate governance priorities of investors for the Russian market and the new G20/OECD Corporate Governance Principles.
This edition provides operational guidelines on how foreign direct investment (FDI) activity should be measured and sets the world standard for direct collecting investment statistics.
This public consultation is being held to gather comments on the draft Chinese Due Diligence Guidelines for Responsible Mineral Supply Chains. They are intended to align Chinese company due diligence with international standards and allow for mutual recognition with existing international initiatives and legislations.
This roundtable gathered business, government, civil society and workers to discuss the application of due diligence in the garment and footwear supply chain in harmony with the OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises.
The recent surge in competition between state and private firms in global markets calls for a reflection on how to minimise any potentially distortionary effects on international trade and investment created by state enterprises while at the same time restraining any undue protectionist policy responses directed at them.
To tackle these challenges and mitigate their effects, the OECD is working in a wide spectrum of policy areas: anti-bribery, public procurement, lobbying or money laundering. Strengthening the role of internal controls and audit functions is one of our key tools to help combat corruption and fraud.

Leading UK lighting rental company HSL is supplying lighting kit and crew for the Foals acclaimed "Total Life Forever" tour – as Oxford's current finest punky indie rockers take to the road in the UK and Europe.
Lighting designer Davy Sherwin has put together a stunning show based around an inventive design that makes the rig appear vastly bigger than it actually is. He first met the band when they were supporting Snow Patrol, for whom he has worked for several years producing some amazing shows, and they wanted a similar vibe, and something that suited their energy and ballsy music.
The project is being handled by Mike Oates for HSL, who says, "It's always great working with Davy – he is one of the most talented of the UK's current new wave of LDs".
The band gave Sherwin a few basic pointers in terms of what they wanted incorporated in the show, and then left him to it. They are very dynamic to light, with the music veering from moody and dark to percussive and shouty to full sensory absorbing rock out!
They particularly wanted multiple shades of blue, so the show errs towards the colder end of the spectrum in terms of colour, together with some classic and classy white moments, specially towards the end of the set, along with some surprise CTO variants.
Another specific instruction was that they wanted as little front light as possible! This of course was no problem, offering the perfect opportunity to make some great drama with beam work amidst some seriously atmospheric haze and smoke management.
The full rig contains a front and back truss plus a substantial floor package, the latter of which will travel to Europe with them where they will hook in to house rigs overhead.
Four different length tank traps come down as drop arms from the back truss, and another 5 come up from the stage underneath, with 1 x GLP Impression LED wash light on the down pipes and 2 on each of the up pipes. Another 2 x Impressions are on the floor, one to the side and the other on the mid stage riser for low level cross lighting for ambience, shadows and silhouettes.
Sherwin has used these briefly before on Snow Patrol and really likes the colour range, which includes some fabulous purples, oranges and reds.
Five i-Pix BB4s are positioned upstage on the floor washing up the 'Foals' logo on the backdrop.
Then there are 4 Robe ROBIN 600 Spots upstage on flight cases and 6 Robe ColorWash 700E ATs on the deck behind the backline, for some powerful back beamage. Five Omni floods on low 'turtle' stands are also sitting behind the band, introducing a tungsten contrast, with a further unit downstage right as a soft key light for lead singer Yanis Philippakis.
The floor picture is completed with 4 Martin Atomic strobes in a row upstage.
On the back truss – in addition to the 4 x GLPs on the drop arms, are 6 x Robe ColorBeam 700 – for intense, mega bright slicing effects, and 7 Atomics, 4 on drop arms and 3 on the truss.
The front truss features just 5 x 4-cell linear Moles, shooting into the audience and 6 Robe ColorWash 700E ATs, which are used for subtle but powerful washing along the front section of the stage, cleverly focussed to avoid over-lighting the band!
The floor orientated show is capable of producing lots of huge anthemic beam looks which work beautifully and flexibly on a variety of stage sizes, from town halls to pros arch theatres, opening right out to accommodate the largest performance space on this current leg of the tour which is Brixton Academy.
For control, Sherwin is using a Road Hog Full Boar console.
The crew from HSL are "Theatre" Tom Wright and "Rock 'n' Roll" Johnny Harper, a great combination in technical skill sets and senses of humour!
Sherwin has worked with HSL since 2006, when they first serviced the Snow Patrol tour…. and comments, "HSL has grown substantially in that time, and it's easy to see why – they have absolutely the right attitude, great equipment, crew and a service second to none. Mike (Oates) ensures that attention is paid to every detail and nothing is ever too much trouble – I'd recommend them to anyone!"
Date of issue : 8th December 2010.

Who says countdowns are just for Christmas? Your little goblins will think it's a scream to keep track of Trick or Treat time, with this creepy calendar! Here's how to make your own.
5/8 yd of Grey Felt
1/2 yd of Black Felt
Scraps of Yellow & Orange Felt
Fabric Fusion
White Transfer Paper
Printable Fabric
Bat Ball Fringe (Optional)
Sewing Machine/Thread (Optional)
- Cut grey felt to 60" x 19" piece. Set aside.
- Download Haunted House pattern. Tape together to pages to make full silhouette. Lay pattern on the wrong-side of black felt, with transfer paper sandwiched in between. Transfer pattern onto fabric (following the manufacturer's instructions). Cut out haunted house and either glue (with Fabric Fusion) or sew onto one end of the grey fabric.
- Out of yellow, white & grey felt scraps. Free-form cut out windows, doors and optional ghost. These don't have to be perfect, so don't worry that there's not a pattern for these! Using project picture as a guide, glue pieces on to house. Cut out two candy corn pieces and glue them together. Follow the provided pattern, to ensure that it fits in pockets.
- Cut out 21, 2x2" squares out of the leftover black felt. Print out the calendar numbers onto printable fabric. Cut out each individual number. Glue numbers on felt squares. Arrange squares evenly on haunted house. Using 1/8" seam allowance sew (or glue) squares to house.
- Cut out 1, 7"x 2" and 1, 4" x 2" rectangles from orange felt. Sew or glue to grey fabric, above house. If you didn't do so at the same time as the numbers, print out "Happy Halloween" text onto printable fabric. Cut out and glue onto orange felt.
- Fold grey felt piece in half length-wise, so the fabric background of your calendar is doubled. Sew a straight line about 2" down from the fold, to create a rod pocket. Using a 1/4" seam allowance, sew around the sides and bottom edge of piece. Trim.
- Glue on ball fringe at bottom & top of piece.
To hang, either add grommets to the top or, insert a dowel into the rod pocket and attach some decorative ribbon. Insert candy corn in a different pocket, every day until Halloween!
Psst! Don't worry that tomorrow's already October 1st. In my book, if you can get one of these puppies made by the 13 days before Halloween (October 19th), then you're keeping a DEADline that's fit for the holiday!

Ask any entrepreneur about the most valuable asset a startup owner can have and the answer will nearly always be "a mentor."
While the details of the startup world change constantly, there are a number of patterns that remain consistent — and there's no better way to navigate those than the counsel of someone who has been there.
While traditional mentoring is alive and well in Silicon Valley, a number of veteran entrepreneurs are taking to the classroom to pass on their experiences. The benefits extend beyond passing the torch to the next generation of big thinkers. Many long-time serial entrepreneurs are today's angel investors and venture capitalists — and the classroom gives them an early glimpse at the potential next big names in emerging fields.
Here are 11 notable entrepreneurs who have taken to the classroom.

Two bookish gifts for me that I am really looking forward to read and watch:
A cabinet of Roman curiosities by J.C. McKeown.
This one has been on my wishlist for a long time. In structure it reminds me a bit of Schott's Miscellany, in that it is just a number of "strange tales and surprising facts".
The movie "Night train to Lisbon" with Jeremy Irons. I just hope they didn't butcher the wonderful Nachtzug nach Lissabon by Pascal Mercier. Relying on Bille August here.
Will be watching it tonight.

THE co-owner of Taylor Made Men's Grooming is the first in the UK to be given a plaque recognis-ing him as a master barber craftsman.
The accolade was presented to Mike Taylor by The Hairdressing Council, which has the backing of the Government.
Mike, who runs the Top of The Town barber shop in London Street, with Hannah Wilcox, has been in the industry for 23 years and has been teaching and assessing barbering for a decade.
Delighted with the award, Mike said: "This is a massive honour and it means everything to me to be the first person in the UK to be awarded this important honour."
Mike, who also has a training academy in Poole called Master Barber, added: "It's something my grandchildren, when I have them, will be proud of."
Mike is on a mission to raise standards in the industry, and trains people from all over the country through private and government-funded courses.
"My passion is education in barbering and I have been educating in my craft for over 10 years now at the highest level," said Mike, who is a founder of the British Barbers Association, which he has been heading for four years.
He added: "I have been recognised for my years of service and teaching, but more importantly it will be helping to raise barbering standards."

M3 GTS. And I run right past the M3 CRT...
I guess a lot of people wouldn't notice this silver E90 M3. Apart from a dash of red on the bonnet vents you'd barely look twice. I didn't and jumped straight into the GTS. It's only later as the session's drawing to a close that I am given the CRT to drive for the final minutes.
Once bitten
Now, when I say the CRT is quick on the GP track remember that I've just been thrashing the GTS around until steel parts plinked in protest and I was asked to stop. That's a pared back monster developed by BMW Motorsport to go toe-to-toe with the Porsche 911 GT3 RS on track days. It's stripped, it's caged and every part of the suspension and chassis is optimised for the racetrack.
It's a brilliant trick carried out so casually by BMW that you really have to stop and think.
I have just a few minutes of track time in CRT number 00 of 67 before I have to convoy back to the pitlane for the next activity. Like the GTS, the engine of the CRT is a stroker with 4.4 litres of displacement versus the standard 4.0. At tickover it sounds a little bit deeper than stock, no doubt helped by the featherweight titanium exhaust. Pulling away it's urgently lumpy and torquey. The traction control systems are pulling at the ignition curve like angry monkeys, chopping power every time I get excited. I hesitate a whole lap before turning off the electronic nannies (I'm under a three-line whip not to). But, dammit, you don't drive a car as special as this every day and it's there to be enjoyed. That's what I tell myself, but I also tell myself I won't do any skids and that way nobody will know I'm being naughty for about the 17th time that day...
With the traction monkeys caged up, the power of the CRT is unleashed on lap two and I'm giggling like a kid. Perfectly linear delivery, bags of torque, blah blah. You get the idea. Pure German V8 heaven, but with a high-revs response to make a decade-old Ferrari blushing behind its Scuderia shields.
The biggest thing about the CRT is not that 4.4 litre alloy-and-steel lump though, it's the weight savings that work their magic on every part of the experience. Honeycomb carbon fibre and carbon fibre reinforced plastic are used a lot. An awful lot. Seats, panels, brackets, you name it.
Compared with a bog-standard M3 it's 45kg lighter. But you shouldn't compare it to a stocker, as this CRT gets the big BMW Individual stereo, the BMW Professional nav and a whole bunch of sound-deadening under those CFRP panels. So by BMW's maths it's about 70kg lighter than an equally specced regular M3 four-door.
Lap three is more confident and at this point I've not been told about the 130,000 euros price tag. So I'm squeezing the upgraded six-pot and four-pot brakes until just past the turn-in, tapping the gas and leaving shreds of Michelin's finest to bounce to the edge of the track. There's no overtaking either, so I have to hang back and wait for the other journos. But that's fine, my laps fall into a rhythm of attack-attack-wait-wait bwaaaaaaarp and attack again.
Until the guy with the flag waves it, points at his watch and I find myself convoying back to pitlane behind the other cars. My last few moments with my new favourite saloon. It's a bittersweet moment. I never knew about this awesome four-door sleeper until today. Now I do, and I want one so badly it's hurting me. So as I look back at the M3 CRT in pitlane, I walk away trying to forget about it. Trying to return to that zen-like state of ignorance that 30 minutes ago helped me ignore it...

People with a History: An Online Guide to Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Trans* History
Site Maintainer:
People with a History presents
the history of lesbians, gay men, bisexuals and transgendered people [=LGBT]. It includes
hundreds of original texts, discussions, and [soon] images, and addresses LGBT history in
all periods, and in all regions of the world.
Browse the Contents guide below to access a series of large
index pages which will then link you directly to the texts and images that interest you.
In addition to texts, the site includes other aides to help you study, or just make
sense of LGBT history - note especially the guide to online
bibliographies and the onsite bibliography [which is the
most up-to-date and complete bibliography of LGBT history available]
If you want to learn more about the goals behind this site, see the introductory
chapters Introductory Chapter and if you wish to get
straight (!) to current debates about the nature of LGBT history go to Chapter 1 on History and Theory .
If you have texts which could be added to this page, please consider sending them to me
at . Texts can include texts from
the past, or papers you have written about homosexuality, bisexuality, or transgendering
in history.
It is a specific goal of People with a History to avoid
complex web hierarchies, and continual mouse-clicking. It proved - in the draft version of
this site on AOL - to be too cumbersome to have only one main index page.
The various chapters are now grouped in sections. The contents of all the chapters in
each section can be accessed via the contents page for that section.
The old style All-in-One Page
is still available, but will not be updated

Depends on what you like. If you like MMA then train in that. The only downfall to training in MMA is if you don't want to actually compete then you won't get the full training. Most likely it will be a cardio session. If you only like the stricking aspect then hit up some muay thai..or if you like the submission side..then BJJ.

This is [i]wonderful[/i] Bill!
BM: Was there anything you guys had been working on that never made it onto the album?
JM: Oh yeah. I think lots of stuff. Well, we started off rehearsing quite a bit. Then after that we went on tour. During that process of rehearsing there was quite a bit of stuff that never got on tour or on record or anything that Robert finally felt wasn't really going anywhere interesting. In those rehearsals we were improvising most of it just to try and find some common ground.[/quote]
Material for future re-masters or another [i]KCCC[/i]?
BM: Right at the break [about 12:26]. Wetton said it was you who found some kind of a book about a Scottish condemned man.
JM: I remember a part on the record that...what John Wetton's saying there about me reading something. That rings a bell. But I'm not quite sure what it was. But I do remember there was a part on the record where Bill Bruford actually recorded something off the TV. It was some play on TV. It was an idea I had about sort of a part of life. Ambient sound. Like people talking or some situational background sound. I think that was one of those times when I had to persuade Robert that it would be a good idea. Bill was enthusiastic about it. So he went off and recorded this off the TV. It's a faintly Scottish thing. I think it was something about somebody being hanged or something. That was definitely off the TV. Bill Bruford went and recorded that off his TV.
BM: Really. That's interesting. So you're not really reading a passage from a book? It's actually from a --
JM: Well, erm. That, no. Yes. That was, I'm sure that was Bill Bruford off the TV. But that thing that John was saying about me reading something. [/quote]
I thought in Sid's book he says that it was recorded off of a radio somewhere?
Whatever. Jamie was there. I [i]wasn't[/i]. :roll:
[quote="Jamie Muir"]But I think everybody's life, in whatever way they define it, everybody is sort of, I mean, you can't be on a path or not on a path. The minute you're born you're on a path, and everybody is. You may give it a different name at a different times. You may be much more intensely conscious and active in the way you deal with it. But while you're being intense and active it doesn't necessarily mean you're actually moving along any faster. [/quote]
No wonder this guy is so incredible! That one's for the record book!

AHL Game Day 1/21: Falcons at Wolf Pack
If Ramo got shot at any more in this game, someone would've owed him a medal.
Karri Ramo stopped 53 of 55 shots faced in the loss as the Falcons were outshot 55-22 including 19-5 in the decisive final period. For his Herculean efforts, Ramo was named second star of the game. The lone Falcons goal came on the power play from Doug O'Brien off assists from Marek Kvapil and Blair Jones. As unholy as the shot totals were in the game, they were just one savvy play from the veteran line away from stealing a point which isn't bad for their third game in three nights.
The loss puts the Falcons 2 points back behind the final playoff spot in the Atlantic Division at 22-22-1. The Falcons will face division leading Manchester on Wednesday and a struggling Philadelphia club on Saturday. From here on out every point matters.

In a televised speech on April 30, 1970, President Nixon announced an expansion of the Vietnam War through an invasion of Cambodia. Anti-war protest spread across the United States as a result of this announcement. On May 4, 1970, Ohio National Guard troops, sent onto the campus of Kent State University to control student protests, opened fire on the demonstrators. Four students were killed. Speaking before the New Hampshire Chamber of Commerce on May 7th, 1970, Senator Barry Goldwater (Arizona) reflected on the deepening polarization in the United States over the Vietnam War. He blamed a "mixed bag of liberals and anarchists" for undermining the President's foreign policy and conduct of the war. Senator Goldwater?s statement is an early association of liberalism with political dissension.
