Fully Licensed & Bonded
Centre of Florida's 'Space Coast' around Cape Canaveral, Cocoa
Beach has become one of the Sunshine State's prime holiday resorts,
boasting the top attraction of the Kennedy Space Center and close
proximity to Orlando's major theme park attractions 46 miles (74km)
away. Sited on a six-mile (10km) long barrier island, nestled
between the Atlantic Ocean and the Banana River Lagoon, Cocoa Beach
offers the chance to watch a space launch from the beach or ride
the waves on which several surfing champions have cut their teeth.
The town of Cocoa Beach has a large permanent population made up
largely of retirees, but this more than doubles during peak season
when the local hotels, motels, timeshares and condominium rentals
are filled with holidaymakers and sightseers. The quintessential
beach town, Cocoa Beach has an oceanfront running the entire length
of its city limits, fronted by numerous dining spots, shops and
cafes. There is also an historic pier, stretching 840ft (256m) into
the ocean, lined with restaurants, boutiques and souvenir shops and
providing for good fishing. A few minutes away is man-made Port
Canaveral, port of call for numerous cruise liners, where there are
also operators offering day sails, casino cruises and deep-sea
fishing charters. Cocoa Beach is connected to Port Canaveral and
various stops in-between by the Beach Trolley service.
The possibilities for passing time pleasantly while on holiday
in Cocoa Beach are boundless, and strolling, sunning, swimming and
surfing on the miles of pristine beach is just the appetiser. At
least two days are required for experiencing the high-tech space
adventures at the Kennedy Space Center and the Astronaut Hall of
Fame where you can touch a piece of the moon or take a trip into
space in the Imax theatre. By contrast the area's wildlife
sanctuaries can be explored by airboat, kayak or riverboat, or if
you prefer nature in a more concentrated environment there is an
excellent zoo. Soak up history in the tree-lined streets of
historic Cocoa Village and local museums. Ride a horse or a
go-cart, or take a boat trip from Port Canaveral. The Sterling
Casino Lines gaming cruise ship sails twice daily for those wishing
to try their luck. The Cocoa Beach pier can claim you for an
afternoon's shopping, eating and fishing. Golfers have a choice of
several great courses, while the children can enjoy miniature golf
or tenpin bowling, or take in a movie.
The US Dollar (USD) is the unit of currency and is divided into
100 cents. Only major banks exchange foreign currency. ATMs are
widespread and credit cards and travellers cheques are widely
accepted. Travellers cheques should be taken in US Dollars to avoid
hassles. Banking hours are Monday to Friday 9am to 3pm.
Cocoa Beach, particularly in peak season, is not a place to seek
solitude or a quiet vacation. The beach is large and long enough to
ensure space is always available, but restaurants and other tourist
facilities become very crowded.
At Cocoa Beach visitors on holiday can dance the night away,
kick back and relax to some great tunes, sing karaoke, go see a
play or movie. Cocoa Beach and surrounds is packed with casual bars
and hip clubs, most centred along Atlantic Avenue. Rated one of the
hottest spots by the bikini and beach set is Coconuts on the Beach
on Minuteman Causeway, where partying goes on till the wee hours.
For jazz and blues Big Daddy Dave's in Cocoa Village is a sure
A wide range of taste temptations is on offer for holiday
visitors to enjoy at Cocoa Beach's 250-odd restaurants, with
establishments to suit every purse and palate from casual dockside
dining to four-star cuisine. In the space of one block you can
choose between Chinese, German, Thai, Cuban or American seafood and
steak. Seafood is always a favourite with visitors. Recommended
often is the open air Oh Shucks Seafood Bar right on the beach.
Port Canaveral has become known as the hub of some sumptuous
seafood restaurants.
Any holidaymakers who ever wanted a surfboard would be
well-advised to buy one at Cocoa Beach, capital of surfing on the
Florida coast, where speciality surf shops abound. Ron Jon's
Surfers Paradise a block from the beach claims to be the biggest
surf shop in the world. This typical beach resort is also well
stocked with fashionable beachwear and accessories, souvenir and
gift stores. Most shops are located in the tree-lined streets of
historic Cocoa Village. The town's main mall, with some anchor
department stores, 100 speciality stores and restaurants, and a
movie theatre is on Merritt Square on the Merritt Island

Downton Abbey Cast in NYC
Downton Abbey Actors Trade '20s England For Modern NYC
Downton Abbey Actors Trade '20s England For Modern NYC
Daisy, is that you? The cast of Downton Abbey was almost unrecognizable last night when they stepped out in New York City for a screening of the series, which hits America's TV Jan. 6. If she could see them now, Lady Violet, the dowager countess, might be rolling her eyes at Joanne Froggatt (who plays housemaid Anna Bates) and Sophie McShera (who plays Daisy, the assistant cook), as the women traded their conservative costumes for a retro minidress, leather pants, and makeup — something we never see them wear on the show. The men were looking dapper as ever, and I'd nominate the handsome Rob James-Collier, aka Thomas Barrow the cunning valet, to be a breakout international heartthrob of 2013. The 36-year-old actor and model looks bloody hot with a little bit of scruff.
It almost feels like Carson the butler, the Earl of Grantham, and all the others were time traveling last night, since Downton fans are used to seeing them in early 20th-century garb. To hold you over until the season three premiere, check out more photos of them out and about in NYC last night.

By the time you reach adulthood you've doubtless faced a lot of changes in your life. In line with the natural order of things we tend to experience successes and gains, but also great loss. If change has come upon you due to things like the kids moving out or going through divorce, you may feel like the life you have is no longer the one you want. The upside is that it's never too late to reinvent yourself. Any number of steps, both big and small, can help you give your life a reboot; here are just a few…
Change your look.
Sure, it may sound simple but what better way to embrace inner change than by changing your appearance? First envision the new you you want to become and then have that picture reflected in everything, from your wardrobe to your hair. Ditching the corporate job to become a visual artist? Guess you won't need those power suits any longer. Trading in the McMansion for an Airstream and a dream? Then you might want to consider an easy-to-manage hairstyle and high performance clothes that are suited for adventure. Or maybe you've always been a brunette and you think auburn might better reflect your new zest for life; it doesn't have to be completely drastic but your new style should herald change.
Move to a new town.
Still feeling constricted by a well-meaning community that thinks it knows you? If your attempts at bringing positive change into your life consistently meet resistance from friends and family then you may want to consider moving. This is no small change, that's for sure, but there are few things more liberating than being able to go to a new place and start fresh. Imagine your life becoming a blank canvas just waiting for new vivid patterns of color. Lifelong friends will always be there, no matter what the geographical distance; whereas the naysayers delivering the negative energy will simply fall away.
Go back to school.
Higher education is a terrific way to give your life a positive charge. Maybe you've always wanted to learn more about photography, or dance, or theatre; why not take this time to feed your mind and soul? You'll not only learn remarkable things about your subject of interest, you'll also surround yourself with people from all walks of life. When done strictly for yourself higher education can be an incredibly expansive experience. Granted, you might feel a little out of place at first but when you really look around and get to know other students you'll find any number of things you have in common with them. You'll also feel good that you're making real steps toward improving your life. And if you're prone to brooding, school will keep you far too busy to mull over those "what ifs" in life. However you choose to revamp your life, try approaching it remembering that this is not a dress rehearsal and that you were born to shine. So what changes do you see coming?

Over 200 students, faculty and staff of the Chicago High School of Agricultural Sciences had a sleep-over at the school on Thursday, October 6th so they could welcome Roz Varon and the ABC7 Chicago Morning Show to CHSAS at 5am on Friday. ABC7 has a new segment called "School Days" and it was an honor for CHSAS to be only the second school visited.
Over the two hours of the show, Roz was able to highlight the unique agricultural programs of the school, from horticulture to animal science and FFA Chapter, and also its sports teams, cheer leaders and active student body.
CHSAS was among the first urban agriculture high school in the country and it is great to highlight its accomplishments over the first 20 years of its history.
Roz had a great audience as students spent the night at CHSAS so they were ready for the 5am broadcast.
Roz received a floral display created by Brittany Kee just in time for her birthday.
Roz Varon is thanked for her support of CHSAS by Lucille Shaw, Master Ag Teacher, and Principal Dave Gilligan
School Days: Chicago High School for Agricultural Sciences
ABC7′s Roz Varon and the Morning show visited the Chicago High School for Agricultural Sciences at the AG School. The AG School was the first urban, college prep agricultural high school in the nation. The magnet school attracts students from across the city. The AG School opened in 1985 with a freshman class of 110 students. The school is located on the "Last Farm in Chicago" (the Farm in the Zoo in Lincoln Park Zoo is not a "working" farm).
The history of the AG School actually began in 1852 when the Chicago Board of Education purchased this farmland for just 50 cents an acre. This was before this area was a part of Chicago.
Dutch settlers leased this farmland from the Chicago Board of Education, and the same family farmed the land since 1963, remaining for a few years after the school opened in 1985.
The railroad came in 1873 and Mount Greenwood cemetery was established in 1879. More local cemeteries were established in the early 1900′s, and busses, pulled by white horses, would transport the mourners to local cemeteries. Stores, restaurants, and saloons opened up to cater to the funeral goers. The village grew, and the Mount Greenwood community was annexed onto the City of Chicago In 1927.
Chicago AG is the only school in Chicago with a veterinarian on staff. Daisy the calf was born last year, the first calf born in Chicago in 50 years. Cotton, the baby lamb, was born last week. The school barn is home to a variety of animals, including cows, pigs, sheep, and a horse.
Corey Flournoy, a 1992 graduate of CHSAS, was the first African American elected to the presidency of the National FFA Organization, the largest student leadership organization in the world, with membership of 450,000.
The AG School was the first urban, college prep agricultural high school in the nation. The school has been visited by board members and dignitaries from every state, and many countries, which look to establish a secondary agricultural program. While many schools offer agricultural courses, in this school every student majors in agriculture.

This is a reposting of some invaluable resources for those who are contemplating suicide. Cheesecake posted these some time ago, and is not currently available to repost an update, so I am doing it for her. (KLD)
SUICIDE HOTLINES(by Cheesecake): I looked up "suicide clusters/contagion and found this definition:
http://www.hhs.gov/faq/healthprogram...alth/1704.html "Suicide contagion is the exposure to suicide or suicidal behaviors within one's family, one's peer group, or through media reports of suicide and can result in an increase in suicide and suicidal behaviors. Direct and indirect exposure to suicidal behavior has been shown to precede an increase in suicidal behavior in persons at risk for suicide, especially in adolescents and young adults."
CareCure can be considered a "peer group" because folks have a common denominator, spinal cord injury. Many folks have talked about embracing one another and the realization of how important folks are to each other. Still others are now openingly talking about feelings of being suicidal.
I thought it might be a good idea to post some resources. I hope if anyone is giving suicide serious consideration, they will reach out and contact others or ask for help.

Estes Park residents have not been shy about telling town officials what services they want and expect from their tax dollars.
In the past three years, citizens have voiced their needs in many forums: in a community visioning process, a citizen survey, a senior center/museum master plan, and a feasibility study for a community wellness recreating center.
From those processes has emerged a list of needs. They include an expanded road maintenance program; a community wellness recreation center with integrated senior services and improved museum facilities; a need for more trails and connections; and enhancements to emergency management like an AM radio channel.
Town officials went back and looked at the budget and determined that cuts would have to be made into many programs (such as snow plowing, flowers and landscaping, community service grants, etc.) to find the funds to meet these needs.
Or, after running the numbers, a 1 percent sales tax increase for 10 years would accomplish the same thing – without the painful, and possibly harmful, cuts.
The tax, essentially one penny for every dollar spent, would raise about $2 million each year. Of that amount, 60 percent, or $1.2 million, would be dedicated to redoing the town's 225 roads and bringing them up to a "Fair" level. Money for maintaining them is already budgeted each year.
The rest of the tax would be split with:
– 25 percent going to the community wellness recreation center/senior center and museum. That is estimated to be about $500,000 a year and would be used as seed money to attract grants. If for some reason the community wellness recreation center is not built, the money would be spent on improvements to the senior center and museum.
– 12.5 percent ($250,000) going toward grant-matching and partnerships for new trails and connections, possibly from downtown to Rocky Mountain National Park. The money could also be used to add bicycle/pedestrian paths to streets under construction.
– 2.5 percent ($50,000) per year to enhance disaster preparedness and response by adding sophisticated emergency communications. The initial funds would be used to create an AM radio highway advisory that could be used for public information. That would have been helpful during last September's flood. Funds would also be used to put emergency response equipment in the new multi-purpose event center to support an emergency operation center.
All of these are true needs. But, they will also enhance our quality of life and add stability to the economic future of the town.
We need to remember that tourism is what drives our economy but we are no longer the third most popular tourist destination. We have fallen to fifth and could fall farther.
We need to be ever mindful that our image, like our worn out roads, is suffering.
If we want to continue to be attractive and have a vibrant economy, we need to fix our roads and trails as much for us as for our visitors.
And, let's not forget that our visitors do their part, contributing more than half of our sales tax revenue.
We need to support this tax on so many levels. It's about our quality of life, our expected levels of service, and our economic future.
If we stand still and do nothing, then we are truly going backward.

Cu Lao Cham is known as a beautiful island with various wild animals and legendary landscapes.
The large island consists of eight islets, 20 kilometres off the coast from Hoi An Ancient Town in Quang Nam Province. Cu Lao Cham Island has wonderful sand beaches, forested hills and the sea. With primitive landscape, the island is ideal for camping, swimming and scuba diving to enjoy the corals and beautiful marine life.
At the summer, if you reach for the island by normal boat, it takes 2 and half hour, but only 30 minutes by speed boat. There are 10 guesthouses for tourists who don't want to spend the night in a tent on the beach. Transport from the mainland to the islet is quite comfortable.
Cham islands are supposed to be the first place where Cham people landed, coming to Quang Nam Province from Indonesia (small monuments, dikes and basin to grow up rice on terraces are hidden in the forest, 17th century pagodas and small temples in the two villages). Therefore, being well-known since earlier Cham domination (from 4th to 14th century), the island became one of the main port of Champa Kingdom. Situated some eight miles offshore Hoi An, it was also part of Hoi An historical international trading. From 15th century till the beginning of 20th century, the old city was a meeting point for international vessels and junks.
According to archaeologists, Cu Lao Cham first settled there 3,000 years ago and established business contacts with external countries some 1,000 years ago. Up to now, Cu Lao Cham has preserved many architectural constructions which date back to the 18th and 20th century. They include the shrine dedicated to Than Yen Sao, built in 1843 at Bai Huong and Hai Tang Pagoda, built in 1753 on the western hillside of Hon Lao. Still, Cu Lao Cham has more to offer. After a three-hour canoe trip, one may hop over to the famed Well of the Cham people.
The island comprises an archipelago of one large island and seven smaller islands. The largest island - Hon Lao, covering 1,317 ha, is circle shape at the high of 500m. There are nice beaches at Bim and Ong beach. The topography of Cu Lao Cham Island is dominated by two peaks: a 517m peak in the centre of the island and a 326m peak at the western end. Natural forest here covers 532 ha of the nature reserve, equivalent to 35% of the total area, while plantation forest covers a further 30 ha.
Biodiversity values
The island is a place where shelter for value swallow birds. The natural vegetation of the islands is lowland evergreen forest, that is natural with a lot of woods and rare animals.
Scientists report the occurrence of macaques Macaca sp., monitor lizards Varanus sp. and pythons Python sp. To date, 265 vascular plant species have been reported from the nature reserve. Furthermore, a species of swiftlet Collocalia sp. is reported to nest on Hon Kho within the nature reserve.
Cu Lao Cham is also home to salanganes, birds whose nests have long been considered a delicacy by aristocrats and the wealthy. The nests may cost as much as US $4,000 per kilogram. In a beautiful day, tourists are able to see cliffs where salanganes build their nests and talk with salangane-nest takers.
Around the island has a lots of color corals under the water. Situated in a salty-water area, this square-bottom well, amazingly, provides clear fresh water all year round. Enjoyable extras include white-sand, pristine beaches and captivating attractions evocatively named Bai Ong, Bai Bim, Bai Chong, Bai Bac, Suoi Tinh, Cau Mo, Suoi Ong and so on, where tourists can relax, go hunting, fishing even fishing octopuses.
Visiting Cu Lao Cham, you also have chances to view the sea swallows' nests clinging to the towering cliff. Cu Lao Cham wins kudos for its seafood and delicacies (octopuses, lobsters, fish's fin, abalone, kaki, hind, cholonia's eggs, bird's nests) and fascinating souvenirs (pearls, conches, tortoise-shells).
Moreover, you can take a tour to Lang beach for seeing some interest places as such Au Thuyen-a shelter for boats at bad weather, a 100-year Tay Tang Pagoda remarking the Puddhism that came here for long time ago, Ong temple - a place worshipping a big fish burried here.

#1 create the installation media (I used OS/2 Warp 4.52.086)
N.B. Do not use OS/2 Warp 4.0 as it won't be compatible on the T43 platform out of the box and will be too much of a headache. IBM never supported Warp 4.0 on the T43 anyways.
#3 format the drive, I would advise to formatting it completely with MHDD or Nuke 'n Boot
N.B. I am not sure the maximum size that it can address, I've been using 90 GB drives
N.B. Assuming there is a disk size limit, you can edit the .ISO and the 'virtual diskette' to incorporate Daniela Engert's replacement storage and ATAPI driver, but I've had no luck with getting it to work and it's not necessary for standard SATA drives on a T43.
#2 use the first BOOT CD-ROM and boot into it.
#3 The installation will (most likely) require to create an LVM partition and restart
#4 After the installation loads further, it will ask you to insert the client OS CD-ROM (disc #2), insert it and press enter
#5 continue through the prompts via enter, it will bring you to the LVM manager
#6 press ENTER with the CD-ROM partition highlighted (which will be the only thing in the list), you'll then have an option to create a new partition
#7 create a new partition as bootable
N.B. If you're using HPFS the maximum size is 64 GB, keep in mind the ancient CHKDSK can only do 16 GB. I would just do 16 GB HPFS and then JFS further partitions later.
N.B. If you choose FAT you'll be limited as to what you can install due to lack of long filename support; for instance you won't be able to install the latest WarpZilla package without HPFS/JFS which is a huge drawback.
#8 Change the drive letter to C:
#9 Select the C: volume and change it to INSTALLABLE from the list
N.B. OS/2 can only be installed to C:, any other drive letter it will simply ignore, so your installation volume MUST be C:.
#10 Create another partition if you wish, exist the logical volume manager (it will need to restart)
#11 rinse and repeat with inserting the boot disc and then the client OS disc
#12 you'll finally get to the setup screen, for video you MUST choose *Super VGA* (it's further DOWN in the list), DO NOT choose the default video selection that the installer thinks it wants. Else you'll get a trap error once the installer restarts.
#13 choose all of the options you want, you'll have to specify a password for your account etc.
#14 the installation should restart twice (it may ask to install an optional video utility, you can ignore it) and then you'll be greeted with your brand new IBM (R) OS/2 (TM) Warp (TM) desktop.

T43/p OS/2 Warp Driver Package Download: http://ibmfiles.com/ibmfiles/t43/T43_OS2_DRIVERS.zip
#1 OS/2 TrackPoint driver
Run SMOUSE.EXE and follow the onscreen instructions. It will require a reboot and you will have to manually set the speed to 'lightest touch' and configure the middle button to scrolling. Despite the driver being older, OS/2 features multi-window scrolling (so your cursor simply needs to be over the window to scroll whichever window, and it also does horizontal scrolling). These features would only show up in the very recent drivers for Windows.
N.B. You will most likely have to disable the 'touchpad' portion of the UltraNav since SMOUSE is designed exclusively to work with the TrackPoint. If you don't the touchpad takes precedence over the TrackPoint.
#2 OS/2 SoundMax sound driver
Run INSTALL.CMD and follow the onscreen instructions. It will require a reboot.
#3 OS/2 SciTech SNAP video driver
Run snap-os2-3.1.8 and follow the onscreen instructions. Reboot. Configure the resolution to 1600x1200 @ 16M. Reboot. It should now be working correctly. You will have to run the REGISTER utility and enter in the following to unlock the product so it doesn't expire:
Name: Free OS/2 Code
Code: 9F98-2AB9-9195-CC
[this was a free code that SciTech released after OS/2 became a dead end]
N.B. Don't use the IBM-supplied ATI driver since it is less featureful and potentially more problematic to get working as it's in an unusual distribution package unlike the standard SciTech one.
#4 OS/2 Broadcom ethernet driver
Follow Broadcom's official instructions to add the driver files in MPTS Network Adapters and Protocol Services. Remove the following from OS/2's startup folder: Network Messaging. You will need to manually configure OS/2 to run TCP/IP on DHCP on eth0: TCP/IP Configuration found under system setup.
Below this point is outdated information as I attempted to figure out how to get it installed. There are a handful of errors and incorrect statements (natural byproduct of the troubleshooting process) so take it all with a grain of salt. I'm leaving the errors and troubleshooting steps just for general documentation and in case it may be useful to anyone.
I really want to get OS/2 Warp 4.52 going on one or both of my T43s. XP is an awful OS, Windows 7 can be pushed on a T43 but it's not optimal... so why not have something 'different' (plus Windows 10 is not my preference). IBM did support OS/2, at least marginally on the T43 as per the T43 announcement document (since 98 is listed as well it can be taken on an as-is basis):
The problem I run into (so far) is thus: the Warp 4.52 installer will start, if there are already partitions on the disk it'll claim it has to reconfigure LVM / on one T43 (the one with a SATA mod), it'll do it endlessly, on the IDE one it'll get past it on a reboot.Software requirements: The following operating systems
support the ThinkPad T43 computer:
• OS/2 Warp Convenience Package 2 V4.52 Refresh MCP2 Refresh: XR_4503 with FixPak XR_C004, or later, and XR_D003, or later
• OS/2 Warp Convenience Package 1 V4.51 MCP1: XR_4501 with FixPak XR_C004, or later, and XR_D003, or later
• OS/2 Warp Convenience Package 2 V4.52 MCP2: XR_4502 with FixPak XR_C004, or later, and XR_D003, or later
• Windows 98 Second Edition with USB 1.1 support
• Windows 2000 Professional (no service pack, SP1, SP2, SP3, SP4) with USB 2.0 support
• Windows XP Professional (no service pack, SP1, SP1a, SP2) with USB 2.0 support
• Windows XP Home (no service pack, SP1, SP1a, SP2) with USB 2.0 support
• Windows NT 4 (SP6a) with limited USB 1.1 support
For information about support for these operating systems, visit http://www.pc.ibm.com/support
Note: Previous versions of these operating systems are not supported.
But the problem with both of them is that I can't install anything because it can't find the hard disks. I tried forcing the IDE T43 and just ended up with this:
Both hard disks don't exceed 100 GB. Does OS/2 require some sort of device driver, or a fix for drives past a certain size in GB?d:\os2/image\disk_2\format.com format error

The first time I saw actress Lisa Bonet was on The Cosby Show. The main stars on the show were Bill Cosby and Phylicia Rashad. The other daughters were played by actresses Tempestt Bledsoe,Keisha Knight Pulliam and Sabrina Le Beauf. But Lisa was clearly the most popular daughter. Lisa played Denise Huxtable.The show came on back in 1984. I remember a lot of black boys in my neighborhood had a crush on her. I wont lie,I thought she was pretty too. I remember a classmate telling me that she was biracial and had a Jewish mother. I did think it was a bit strange that she looked biracial but had two black parents. I remember on the Cosby Show there were all different shades of black people. I also remember she did a spinoff show called A Different World.
I remember that the character Dwayne Wayne,played by Kadeem Hardison had a huge crush on Denise Huxtable. Eventually Lisa Bonet left the show to start a film career. After she left Dwayne fell in love with Whitley Gilbert played by Jasmine Guy(pictured above). The thing I noticed about these women is they are both biracial. Why is the mixed woman the object of affection so often? I didn't think about it much as a child. But I started to think about it more as I got older. This is something that has been going on for quite some time. I've covered this subject before and it needs repeating. It's not really about just Lisa Bonet. She's just one of the first examples I remember where the mixed woman gets all the attention. I've seen this pattern over thirty years. And it's steadily increasing. But it's mostly about the fact that Hollywood still uses biracial women has the standard for beautiful black women. And also we as black people have a problem liking any group of people that look "less black". This is a learned behavior. I've seen it in film,music and television. It's really nothing new. I've seen it throughout my whole childhood. You may find some of these women attractive. But the issue is not their attractiveness. The issue is the over abundance of mixed women being in the forefront representing black beauty. There's so many I could never list them all. But here's just a small sample of some of the more popular ones. And even some biracial women you may not be that familiar with.
Long before Mariah Carey or Alicia Keys….Sade was the biracial songbird that took the music world by storm. She was a huge star in the 80's. I admit I like her music. She really has a lovely voice. I remember guys in my neighborhood would always say she was so beautiful. Her being biracial probably didn't hurt too much either. They said she was wife material. It's funny because rarely did I hear them say that about Anita Baker,Patti LaBelle or Jody Watley very much.
In the 80's biracial actress Rae Dawn Chong was the "black" actress in many Hollywood films. Although she was mostly paired with white men.
Actress Jennifer Beals became a huge star when starred in the film Flashdance(1983). She played an exotic dancer in the film. Her mother is white and father is a black man.
In the action film Action Jackson(1988) the late pop singer Vanity played the love interest to Carl Weathers. The biracial singer whose real name was Denise Matthews also dated pop/rock icon Prince.
On the sitcom The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air(1990-1996) biracial actress Karyn Parsons played Hilary Banks. She played the cousin of Will Smith.
In the interracial drama Jungle Fever(1991) biracial actress Lonette McKee played the wife of Wesley Snipes. He cheated on his biracial wife for an Italian woman. I guess his wife wasn't white enough for him.
In the film Mo Money(1992) Damon Wayans starred with biracial actress Stacey Dash.
In Boomerang(1992) Eddie Murphy was paired with biracial actress Halle Berry. Robin Givens was also in the film but Halle was the women every guy wanted. Of course Halle was the go-to mulatto throughout the nineties. And even won an Oscar award in the process. She became the "pretty black woman" in Hollywood.
Sade ruled the 80's but in the 90's Mariah Carey became the mulatto singer the media feel in love with. I remember on music channels they would say she was a beautiful black woman. Mariah used to always insist that she was biracial though. Lately she has been getting more in touch with her black side. Maybe it was because she married black actor/rapper Nick Cannon. They have since divorced after having two children.
The sitcom Sister Sister(1994-1999) was a big hit among teenage girls. It starred biracial sisters Tia and Tamera Mowry.
R&B pop singer/dancer Mya was biracial as well. She first came on the scene back in 1998. She did a little acting in a few films. Some thought she would be the next Janet Jackson. I haven't heard much from her lately. Not sure what she's been up to.
In the 90's biracial actress Kristen Wilson was paired with black actors like Eddie Murphy and Damon Wayans.
Biracial actress Gloria Reuben was on the hit drama ER(1994-2009) Her character always had troubling finding love.
I also remember actress Michael Michele(above) was on the drama ER the same time as Gloria Reuben. She was a nice addition since there wasn't much "color" on that show. Of course she's biracial as well.
What's the Worst That could Happen(2001) Starred Martin Lawrence and biracial actress Carmen Ejogo. She usually plays a black woman or a racially ambiguous role.
This is a great video(above) by Youtuber Chrissie. She perfectly explains the double standard when it comes to biracial beauty. There's a lot of dishonesty when people talk about colorism and the advantage of being biracial.
Biracial actress Kandyse McClure is from South Africa. She has starred in films like Children of the Corn and Broken Kingdom. She's most known for the sci-fi television show Battlestar Galactica(2004-2009).
R&B singer Amerie debuted in 2002. There was a lot of buzz about her in the beginning. Her "exotic looks" come from her black father and Korean mother. Her only hit single was "One Thing". Some thought she would dethrone Beyoncé as the next big thing. Didn't quite happen though.
R&B/pop singer Cassie Ventura(knows as Cassie) on the scene in 2006. Her father is Filipino and mother is black/Mexican. She has done some acting as well. She obviously wants to be a bigger star. Although she is most known for dating music producer Puff Daddy. She has been his on/off again side piece for the last few years.
In the black drama ATL(2006) biracial actress Lauren London was the love interest to rapper/actor T.I. This film was supposed to make London the role model for all the biracial ghetto hood chicks. I guess she's living up to it. She already has two children by two gangster rappers. One with Lil Wayne and Nipsey Hussle.
In the film Idlewild(2006) biracial actress Paula Patton played the love interest to rapper/actor Andre Benjamin. Over the years she has starred alongside Denzel Washington and Tom Cruise. At one point she was dubbed the "next Halle Berry".
In the comedy film Norbit(2007) biracial actress Thandie Newton was paired with Eddie Murphy. Norbit was a horrible film. A total waste of film!
I remember when pop singer Leona Lewis dropped her debut cd Spirit in 2007. The British born singer has a black father and white mother. She made a big splash in her debut. She has the light skin,light eyes and long hair….and could actually sing. It's no wonder music critics called her the "new Mariah".
In the comedy action film Rush Hour 3(2007) mixed-raced actress Noemie Lenoir was the love interest for Chris Tucker.
Singer Jordin Sparks won the show American Idol back in 2007. The biracial singer was seventeen at the time. I think that show is rigged anyway…I'm just saying. She has become quite a big star over the last several years.
Biracial actress Tracee Ellis Ross stars on the silly sitcom show Black-ish(2014-). She plays the wife of Anthony Anderson. Her mother is music icon Diana Ross. Her father is a Jewish businessman.
On the Fox show Gotham(2014-) biracial actress Jessica Lucas plays Tabitha Galavan. She is not only a vicious villain buy also plays a lesbian. You know Hollywood always has to throw in that sexual confusion.
There are even more biracial women in news media as well. This picture(above) is ESPN sports reporter Sage Steele with her white husband. Steele is most known for being a white racist apologist. She never misses an opportunity to insult black people and the black struggle. Does that make her a mulatto coon?
This is biracial news anchor Soledad O'Brien. She's a news anchor on CNN. Just like Sage Steele she also married a white man. Look at those children. You can see the African features are just about gone! Kiss those black genes goodbye! But I guess that's purpose of marrying white anyway.
This picture(above) is of biracial news anchor Melissa Harris-Perry. She is pictured with her mother and father. She is an author and political commentator. She had her own show for four years(2012-2016) on MSNBC. Unlike Sage Steele and Soledad O'Brien she decided to marry a black man.
On the Fox show Pitch(2016-) biracial actress Kylie Bunbury plays Ginny Baker. It's a show about the first woman to play major league baseball. So…they couldn't find a woman that was just black?? Nope! They have to cast the biracial woman as the center of attention.
This picture was very interesting to me. I found it very eye opening. This is part of the cast of the Disney show K.C. Undercover(2015-present). From left to right the actresses are Zendaya Coleman,Jasmine Guy,Kara Royster and Tammy Townsend. The first three women all have white mothers. Townsend has a white father and a black mother. That's right..all of these women are biracial. How is that possible that ALL of them are biracial? They casted all biracial women. Could this be an accident? I'll let you decide.
This young lady is rapper Miss Mulatto. That's not a misprint,you read it right. Her actual rape name is Miss Mulatto. Her real name is Alyssa Stephens. The 18- year old rapper is most known for being on the reality show The Rap Game. I just find it interesting that she is capitalizing off of the popularity of being racially ambiguous. And using that as a way of being seen as unique in the rap world.
Then we have pop singer Tinashe. She is biracial as well with a black father and white mother. She's an okay dancer but not the best singer. But you don't have to be able to sing in the music industry anymore. You just have to have the right "look". Maybe Tinashe will be the next Zendaya. Or the next Jordin Sparks? On the next Mya? Who knows! I 'm starting to get them all mixed up.
Biracial actress Cynthia Addai-Robinson is getting a lot of roles lately. She has appeared in films like Colombiana and The Accountant. And shows like Texas Rising,Arrow and Shooter.
Actress Jamie Lee Kirchner(pictured above) was born in Germany. She has a black mother and white father. She has been in shows like CSI,Dollhouse and Bull. Although she has brown skin she is still biracial. Some people get fooled by this. Not all biracial women have really light skin and light colored eyes. Some of a bit more melanin but they don't always have African-textured hair. Many of them have lanky hair with a bit of a curl to it. This is just a small sample of biracial actresses and singers. I could've listed a lot more.
But the main point is that many of these white Hollywood casting agents don't think that deep brown skinned and dark chocolate-colored(not biracial) women are good enough. They don't have the "exotic look" they're looking for. They don't want African(Original)looking women with black features representing the black race. And they purposely promote biracial women in films and music as the standard. Otherwise why do they keep doing this? People say "well black people come in many different shades". Okay then why do the biracial women get so much of the attention. We all know why. The truth is white people(other races and some blacks) believe that mixed race women are more attractive than black women. They don't think that black women that are 85% black or more should be the standard. But this colorism madness needs to STOP! There are plenty of darker skinned actresses and singers that don't get the shine they deserve. I want all my sisters to get the limelight. She can have full lips,thick thighs,african textured hair and dark skin. This is not about bashing biracial woman. Like I have said before,I have biracial people in my family. I have cousins that have married whites and Mexicans(Hispanic whites). I But I don't consider them black..they are mixed. This one-drop rule has gotten out of control. I don't have any hatred towards them. I have nothing against them. But it's time to stop putting black beauty on the back burner. Black/African women have their own unique beauty that should be celebrated. I just don't think it's "fair" to give them most of the shine while black women are an afterthought. Lisa Bonet is a pretty woman. But a black woman shouldn't have to look like Lisa to get some credit for her beauty.

Source: Cotton, Incorporated
New crop cottonseed supplies available to dairies are expected to remain tight as U.S. farmers swap cotton acres for corn and soybeans across many parts of the Cotton Belt.
U.S. cotton production will likely drop 19 percent, from 2012 to 2013, according to the World Agricultural Supply and Demand Estimates Report released May 10, 2013. Total U.S. cottonseed production in 2013 is forecast to reach 4.58 million tons, compared to 5.76 million tons in 2012, resulting in about 2 million tons available for feeding.
Delayed planting, due to cool and wet weather, may further dampen supplies. While it's been wet across much of the Cotton Belt, Texas remains dry.
Twenty-three percent of the 2013 U.S. cotton crop had been planted by May 13, as documented in the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) National Agricultural Statistics Service Crop Progress Report. This compares with 38 percent, the five-year average. Additionally, USDA reported that the 2013 planting season is off to its slowest start since 1984.
"As cotton planting is delayed, farmers are less likely to plant cotton and more likely to plant soybeans," says cottonseed merchant Larry Johnson of Cottonseed LLC, La Crosse, Wis.
"Furthermore, as planting is delayed, we're more apt to see a smaller crop due to lower yields."
For dairy producers, this means potentially tighter supplies and slightly higher prices for new crop cottonseed, he says. "The new crop cottonseed price has been rallying from increasing cottonseed demand coming out of Asia, and a shortage of forages."
"We're still feeling the impact of last year's drought on forage supplies," Johnson continues. "Additionally, we're seeing a fair amount of alfalfa winterkill this spring."
Despite tight supplies, Johnson still sees a strong fit for cottonseed in dairy cow rations. "Many dairy producers are currently buying new crop cotton," says Johnson. "Whole cottonseed combines protein, fiber and energy, and works well with other ration ingredients to deliver a balanced and cost-effective ration."
Cotton Incorporated suggests producers get in touch with their cottonseed merchant or feed dealer to check prices, or submit a request for cottonseed quotes through its Cottonseed Marketplace. Also, those interested in receiving periodic updates on the available cottonseed supply, along with feeding, storage and booking strategies, can sign up for the Whole Cottonseed E-newsletter.
Cottonseed is an excellent source of fiber, protein and energy. Typical rations can include up to 15 percent cottonseed on a dry matter basis. For more information, including reports on market conditions, feeding information and a list of suppliers, visit www.wholecottonseed.com.
Cotton Incorporated, funded by U.S. growers of upland cotton and importers of cotton and cotton textile products, is the research and marketing company representing upland cotton. The Program is designed and operated to improve the demand for and profitability of cotton.

The most general way to satisfy a
clause is to scan the whole table and create a new temporary
table where all rows from each group are consecutive, and then
use this temporary table to discover groups and apply
aggregate functions (if any). In some cases, MySQL is able to
do much better than that and to avoid creation of temporary
tables by using index access.
The most important preconditions for using indexes for
GROUP BY are that all
BY columns reference attributes from the same index,
and that the index stores its keys in order (for example, this
is a
BTREE index and not a
HASH index). Whether use of temporary
tables can be replaced by index access also depends on which
parts of an index are used in a query, the conditions
specified for these parts, and the selected aggregate
There are two ways to execute a
query through index access, as detailed in the following
sections. In the first method, the grouping operation is
applied together with all range predicates (if any). The
second method first performs a range scan, and then groups the
resulting tuples.
In MySQL,
GROUP BY is used for sorting, so
the server may also apply
optimizations to grouping. See
Section 188.8.131.52, "ORDER BY Optimization".
The most efficient way to process
BY is when an index is used to directly retrieve
the grouping columns. With this access method, MySQL uses
the property of some index types that the keys are ordered
(for example,
BTREE). This property
enables use of lookup groups in an index without having to
consider all keys in the index that satisfy all
WHERE conditions. This access method
considers only a fraction of the keys in an index, so it is
called a loose index
scan. When there is no
clause, a loose index scan reads as many keys as the number
of groups, which may be a much smaller number than that of
all keys. If the
WHERE clause contains
range predicates (see the discussion of the
range join type in
Section 8.8.1, "Optimizing Queries with EXPLAIN"), a loose index scan looks
up the first key of each group that satisfies the range
conditions, and again reads the least possible number of
keys. This is possible under the following conditions:
The query is over a single table.
GROUP BY names only columns that
form a leftmost prefix of the index and no other
columns. (If, instead of
the query has a
DISTINCT clause, all
distinct attributes refer to columns that form a
leftmost prefix of the index.) For example, if a table
t1 has an index on
(c1,c2,c3), loose index scan is
applicable if the query has
GROUP BY c1,
c2,. It is not applicable if the query has
GROUP BY c2, c3 (the columns are not
a leftmost prefix) or
GROUP BY c1, c2,
c4 (
c4 is not in the
The only aggregate functions used in the select list (if
any) are
MIN() and
MAX(), and all of them
refer to the same column. The column must be in the
index and must follow the columns in the
Any other parts of the index than those from the
GROUP BY referenced in the query must
be constants (that is, they must be referenced in
equalities with constants), except for the argument of
MIN() or
MAX() functions.
For columns in the index, full column values must be
indexed, not just a prefix. For example, with
c1 VARCHAR(20), INDEX (c1(10)), the
index cannot be used for loose index scan.
If loose index scan is applicable to a query, the
EXPLAIN output shows
Using index for group-by in the
Extra column.
Assume that there is an index
idx(c1,c2,c3) on table
t1(c1,c2,c3,c4). The loose index scan
access method can be used for the following queries:
SELECT c1, c2 FROM t1 GROUP BY c1, c2; SELECT DISTINCT c1, c2 FROM t1; SELECT c1, MIN(c2) FROM t1 GROUP BY c1; SELECT c1, c2 FROM t1 WHERE c1 <
constGROUP BY c1, c2; SELECT MAX(c3), MIN(c3), c1, c2 FROM t1 WHERE c2 >
constGROUP BY c1, c2; SELECT c2 FROM t1 WHERE c1 <
constGROUP BY c1, c2; SELECT c1, c2 FROM t1 WHERE c3 =
constGROUP BY c1, c2;
The following queries cannot be executed with this quick select method, for the reasons given:
There are aggregate functions other than
MIN() or
SELECT c1, SUM(c2) FROM t1 GROUP BY c1;
The columns in the
GROUP BY clause do
not form a leftmost prefix of the index:
SELECT c1, c2 FROM t1 GROUP BY c2, c3;
The query refers to a part of a key that comes after the
GROUP BY part, and for which there is
no equality with a constant:
SELECT c1, c3 FROM t1 GROUP BY c1, c2;
Were the query to include
WHERE c3 =
, loose index
scan could be used.
A tight index scan may be either a full index scan or a range index scan, depending on the query conditions.
When the conditions for a loose index scan are not met, it
still may be possible to avoid creation of temporary tables
GROUP BY queries. If there are range
conditions in the
WHERE clause, this
method reads only the keys that satisfy these conditions.
Otherwise, it performs an index scan. Because this method
reads all keys in each range defined by the
WHERE clause, or scans the whole index if
there are no range conditions, we term it a
tight index scan. With
a tight index scan, the grouping operation is performed only
after all keys that satisfy the range conditions have been
For this method to work, it is sufficient that there is a
constant equality condition for all columns in a query
referring to parts of the key coming before or in between
parts of the
GROUP BY key. The constants
from the equality conditions fill in any "gaps"
in the search keys so that it is possible to form complete
prefixes of the index. These index prefixes then can be used
for index lookups. If we require sorting of the
GROUP BY result, and it is possible to
form search keys that are prefixes of the index, MySQL also
avoids extra sorting operations because searching with
prefixes in an ordered index already retrieves all the keys
in order.
Assume that there is an index
idx(c1,c2,c3) on table
t1(c1,c2,c3,c4). The following queries do
not work with the loose index scan access method described
earlier, but still work with the tight index scan access
There is a gap in the
GROUP BY, but
it is covered by the condition
c2 =
SELECT c1, c2, c3 FROM t1 WHERE c2 = 'a' GROUP BY c1, c3;
GROUP BY does not begin with the
first part of the key, but there is a condition that
provides a constant for that part:
SELECT c1, c2, c3 FROM t1 WHERE c1 = 'a' GROUP BY c2, c3;

text: Guest **DONOTDELETE** Posted May 11, 2001 Two weeks ago I was in Cincinatti and I let John, Linda, Marvin and Evelyn try some I W Harper distilled in 1936 and bottled in Bond in 1941. The big difference in this product and modern Harper is that it was distilled at little over 100 proof (probably about 104) and put in the barrel at about 103. This Harper was declared by all as being excellent and better than the current 15 year old Harper. This led to a discussion on barrel proof. John and I agreed (or at least I think John agreed with me, it is hard to remember after so many bourbons) that adding water after aging is not the same as aging water with the whiskey. The water in the barrel is going to have more flavor from the distillation process plus it is also going to receive flavor from the barrel. This leads to a more flavorful product that is complex and maybe a little "heavier" in flavor than modern bourbons. I also think it gives the bourbon better flavor at younger ages. Has anyone else tried some of these old bourbon and wish to comment upon this?Mike Veach Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Chances are you've heard of the 'small world' idea of six degrees of separation. But is it correct?
The idea traces back to an experiment begun in 1967 by Stanley Milgram, in which he tried to trace how many acquaintances it would take to pass a letter between two randomly selected people. The result that entered the public consciousness was that in general it took six steps or fewer to bridge the gap between any two people. But is that result accurate? One researcher, Judith Kleinfeld, a professor of psychology at the University of Alaska Fairbanks, looked at Milgram's original experiment in the hopes of updating it for the digital world. "Milgram's startling conclusion turns out to rest on scanty evidence," she says. "The idea of 'six degrees of separation' may, in fact, be plain wrong-the academic equivalent of an urban myth."
Other researches take issue with her assertions, however. In this segment, guest host Joe Palca talks with Kleinfeld and 'small worlds' researcher Steven Strogatz, a professor of applied mathematics at Cornell University, about the 'six degrees' idea. Do we really live in a 'small world' -- and, if so, what can we do with that information?

You know how every Olympic sport isn't boomerang-based? That's a problem for many reasons, but the most obvious of which is the fact that when something gets thrown, eventually it has to be retrieved.
Instead of genetically engineering 1/2 scale goats with grafted-on chimpanzee arms for the job, like any rational person would, the London Olympics are employing 1/4 scale electric, remote controlled MINIs.
These R/C MINIs are pretty cool: 10 HP (!) motor, vented disc brakes, beefy suspension to handle those heavy shot put balls, and they're good for 35 minutes of operation. The roof opens to reveal a waterproof storage area, and the open roof allows javelins to be transported as well. They can carry a 17.6 lb payload and have so far been running without a hitch.
This a is a good advertising move on the BMW Group's part, and it's great to see R/C cars used in a utility context. I hope Tomy's paying attention and will be providing Omnibots as personal valets to all the athletes.
(Thanks, Ryan!)

The quilt you made for Libby's soldier is just gorgeous. And to add all those goodies. Thank you for caring.
I love your Libby's quilt! That is the one for soldiers right? It is wonderful! Thanks for sharing. Haven't seen you around lately. Everything OK? Hugs, Jan L.
good to see another St. Louis person on here. There has to be more than just the 3 of us, lol
Just saw your question regarding embroidery machine quilting. Yes. The designs I use are purchased. I usually purchase them from emblibrary.com and I have a few I've purchased from embroiderydesigns.com. You'll find them under "quilting." Look for designs that are single run rather than double run.
Hi, Thanks for the welcome. I lived near Angola, Indiana which is about 45 miles north of Fort Wayne. Have been to Columbia City many times.
hi no worries yes, i did get the label made and the baby quilt is being loved by little Alicia. HUGS!
can you make an embroidery label for a baby quilt?

Just Posted: A Stormy Sail in 2002
Sailing to Yamba
We've just posted a story from 2002 when we left Sydney on a nice morning and got a shocker when we made it out past the Heads: It was blowing like stink.
It was a rough morning but we did knock off the miles on that trip: In twenty four hours we'd covered 175 miles even against the southward flowing East Coast Current. Did we like it? During the day it was simply a fast ride we'd rather not be taking. At night it was dark, loud, and scary but we carried on, and didn't turn in until Yamba. And no, we didn't like it.
But we got through it.

Sidney Crosby skates with protection over jaw
Malkin, Martin, Neal also practice at Southpointe
Penguins captain Sidney Crosby skated with protective facial gear Sunday as he continues to recover from a broken jaw suffered last month.
Crosby has not played since March 30. He skated at Southpointe alongside injured teammates Paul Martin (hand), Evgeni Malkin (shoulder) and James Neal (concussion), although Neal only skated for about 8 minutes.
Martin is the only one of that group who will accompany the Pens on their trip to Ottawa for Monday night's game against the Senators.
Coach Dan Bylsma has not said when any of the four injured Pens might be able to play again.
Kris Letang did not practice Sunday, and he may not play Monday. Bylsma said Letang is ill.
The Penguins have won their past six games and are 6-2 during Crosby's absence, clinching the No. 1 playoff seed in the Eastern Conference along the way.

Airport inquiry head Sir Howard Davies outlines aims
The head of a commission investigating airport capacity in the UK has said he aims to give the next government a "flying start" on the issue after the 2015 general election.
Sir Howard Davies, who acknowledged decision-making on the subject had been delayed, vowed to produce a "substantial piece of work".
London Mayor Boris Johnson said the process should be sped up.
The government has resisted pressure to build a third runway at Heathrow.
However, many businesses have been lobbying for expansion at the airport.
Mr Johnson, who opposes expanding Heathrow, told BBC Radio 4's Today programme that expansion at the west London airport "simply will not happen".
The mayor, who has advocated a new airport in the Thames Estuary, also said he felt the decision-making process was too slow and represented a "policy of utter inertia".
"I think what is going on now is a good thing, it's a productive process. I just think it could be speeded up, and there is absolutely no need to delay to 2015," he said.
Mr Johnson added: "Can I tell you in the next nine years how many runways they are going to build in China? They are going to build 52. How many are we going to build in the UK? None at all."
He said it would be "toxic and disastrous to go into the election of 2015 with Heathrow runway three still on the agenda".
Speaking to the BBC earlier, Sir Howard addressed criticisms about the recommendations being delayed until 2015.
"Politics dictate that, for reasons we all understand, the coalition has said they are not going to make this decision before the election," he said, explaining that his commission can do a lot of preparatory work.
That work would include considering a national airport policy statement, detailed business cases and environmental and noise assessments.
"We do have to do all of that and I think we can do that under the aegis of the commission, so that when the new government comes into office in 2015, when they make a decision, it will have a flying start," he said.
'Lacking consensus'
He said the full report, expected in 2015, would be a "really expert piece of work looking at how we think about airport capacity, which I hope will be internationally leading-edge".
"In order to build enough political consensus around the eventual solution, we will need to show that we have done in-depth analysis of the other options. At the moment, consensus is what is lacking," he said.
In the meantime, Sir Howard, a former chairman of the Financial Services Authority, said the commission would look at the options for increasing airport capacity within the existing framework and how to narrow down the range of possible approaches.
He said he planned to bring out an interim report by the end of next year in which the commission would have narrowed down the options.
Along with a third Heathrow runway, the options include connecting Heathrow and Gatwick, a new airport in the Thames Estuary and the expansion of Stansted.
Meanwhile, Transport Secretary Patrick McLoughlin has named the five other individuals who will sit on the commission chaired by Sir Howard.
They include Sir John Armitt, the former chairman of the Olympic Delivery Authority, and Geoff Muirhead CBE, former chief executive of the Manchester Airport Group.
Ministers say they are committed to maintaining what they call "the UK's position as Europe's most important aviation hub".
While the coalition government has ruled out further expansion at Heathrow during the current parliament, many Conservative MPs want ministers to think again as part of a wider review of the future of UK airports.
According to the BBC's political correspondent Chris Mason, the regular "mantra" from ministers is that 100% of their effort and attention is devoted to doing everything possible to revive the economy.
Liberalising the planning system and removing perceived barriers to growth are seen as key, he added.
Sir Howard was asked by the transport secretary in September to look into the issue of airport capacity .
