12 Scenic Road Trips in the UK
Travel the UK by road and make some stops along the way on these scenic routes
While it may be easy to associate British roads with bumper to bumper traffic and reserve the rose tinted road trip for roads like Route 66 in the USA, there are some truly scenic routes in the UK. In the age of Satnavs we've become so accustomed to the quickest possible route, that we've forgot about the treasures that can be found on the 'scenic' route.
While discussing the merits of Britain's 'A' roads may sound a little Alan Partridge, hear us out. Check out these 12 scenic roads in the UK – we've even found something to see or do on each one. Read more

The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey (2012)
Director - Peter Jackson
Country - USA, New Zealand
Starring - Martin Freeman, Ian McKellen and Richard Armitage
Running Time - 169 minutes
A curious Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, journeys to the Lonely Mountain with a vigorous group of Dwarves to reclaim a treasure stolen from them by the dragon Smaug.
As the world rapidly uploads itself to the digital space, there is a sense that the cinema has come full circle. A machine art form for the machine age, when it began in the late 19th century people immediately recognized its potential to take us to the world unseen. We could travel to every part of the globe through a make-shift theatre set up in the back of a gymnasium. Now it is the computer screen that draws the minds of millions every day. With it, the cinema has moved towards the digital. By that I do not mean the rise of digital cameras and projectors, but the landscape itself. For the first time, and with a sizeable enough budget, film makers can capture the magic not just of our own world, but of any one imagined complete with lens flare and digital gloss through a recliner chair in an office building.
Perhaps there is no finer moment to illustrate this evolution than when Ian McKellen's Gandalf looks down at a young Bilbo Baggins and states with a distinct lack of irony; 'The real world is not in your books, it's out there.'
The reason that Jackson's Ring trilogy was such a defining moment in cinema was because of how tangible it was. He drew on the beauty of New Zealand's landscape and a balance between practical and computer effects to create a world that was both believable and fantastical. With the advancements of CGI even since the end of The Return of the King, Jackson is able to create a much more expressive Middle-Earth for prequel The Hobbit. The landscape is more vibrant, the miniature ('bigatures') sets are replaced with digital ones and every mildly recognizable British TV actor gets a fake nose. Unfortunately with this reliance on computer effects, the authenticity has gone. You no longer feel Middle Earth as a real world, but a product of digital conception, expertly crafted but a product none the less. One could argue that this is a younger, more innocent Middle Earth that has not been tainted with the destructive allegorical evil of the Ring trilogy yet and therefore the more colourful look is suited, indeed Tolkien's book is a more child-aimed affair. However Jackson draws attention to its connection with Rings, coupled with some of the darker side elements and the result is that The Hobbit has a rather uneven tone and visual disconnection.
This is very much a prequel to the trilogy and an older Bilbo, initially played by Ian Holm, pops up to tie the two together. Make no mistake, although Frodo appears, this is Bilbo's story. There's a terrific shot early on that cements this as Frodo steps out of Bag End, a wide shot shows a hobbit in the distance striding through the landscape, walking stick in hand. Before panning out to reveal Frodo enthusiastically check the mail box for invitation responses, with it, the baton has been handed back so speak. There is a freedom to this journey due to the lack of 'the one ring' (at least in a significant sense) and Martin Freeman isn't quite the wet blanket that Elijah Wood was. Watching him gradually slide, or more appropriately, trip into the role of unlikely hero is very natural. His courageous, yet rash actions and errors in judgement give away his inexperience, and Freeman shrinks into the role, frequently letting the others take over the action, but his moment will come in due time.
The band of Dwarves that make up the group offer up plenty of entertaining interactions and riffs, even though you'll really only remember the names of about five. There is an uneasy feeling that hangs over this film that their quest just isn't that interesting. This feeling is shared most of all by Jackson who includes a variety of subplots, including an intriguing incident involving the rumoured emergence of a necromancer, which I imagine will be handled in the sequel to come. It is as if the movie is unsure of itself and looking to over compensate, it leaves itself rather bloated.
At nearly three hours long, it has to be said that it is just too long. The opening half hour amounts to nothing more than descriptions of cutlery and sing-alongs. The pace gradually increases as the film progresses, but it is constantly being interrupted by establishing shots, flashbacks and, of course, the arbitrary trip to Rivendell for which critic Bob Chipman rightly describes as 'The High Council of Exposition.' Make no mistake, once we leave the Shire this isn't a slow film, it's very busy and littered with action, even to a fault. Some have been written in, some are smaller scale skirmishes that have been expanded to full scale battles; they tick the boxes for sensational excitement, but end up feeling quite repetitive and contrived. The worst of which involves the mountain our heroes are traversing becoming a giant stone monster itself, which might be the most overt artificial lengthening sequence I've ever seen. The real highlight is undeniably Bilbo and Gollum's game of riddles, which despite being intense and darkly funny, only enhances the feeling that this is a step down from that series.
Much has been made of the 48 frames per second format; I for one cannot comment on how it looks yet, defiantly I went with the 24-2D version. I am planning on seeing it for comparison, but impressions I've heard have ranged from apathetic to bad. Really I don't see this being the next step for cinema as Jackson intended and I wonder how much more complicated things will get for the average movie goer.
There is some excellent film making here, flashes of the brilliance that made Jackson's Lord of the Rings a classic of epic storytelling, but The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey is too bloated, too indulgent and simply just not as interesting. It has neither the impact, nor organic design of its predecessors, and one cannot help but make the comparison. At least now that the characters and set up has been properly established, the next instalments will be a complete return to form. As it is however, you cannot help but wonder how co-writer Del Toro's would compare. A shadow has been cast over Middle Earth, but it is one made up of code and pixels, it looms towards us, a warning of this new cinema at a speed of 48 (or 24) frames per second.

SDX Energy Inc (LON:SDX, CVE:SDX) told investors that it has now put the KSR-16 well, at the Sebou project onshore Morocco, into production.
The well yielded a restricted production rate of 8.43mln cubic feet of gas per day, which is the best result of the three recent new wells at the project.

Q. I've been depressed for over a year, and I've been thinking about seeing a therapist. I hear therapy takes a really long time, and I don't I have the time or the money for that. Is there such a thing as short-term therapy?
Q. I�ve been depressed for over a year, and I�ve been thinking about seeing a therapist. I hear therapy takes a really long time, and I don�t I have the time or the money for that. Is there such a thing as short-term therapy?
A. In the past, many psychologists saw patients two or three times a week for several years. More recently, most psychologists meet with patients once a week until the presenting problem is resolved. You would probably profit from seeing someone who practices cognitive-behavior therapy (CBT) which is usually short-term.
In CBT, the therapist examines the negative thinking style (cognitions) that has led to your depression. For example, some of the dysfunctional thoughts I hear are: �I thought I�d be happy once I got married/had children/got a better job.� As CBT therapists, we have patients examine these dysfunctional thoughts and conduct a reality check. We attempt to rid them of the �shoulds, have tos, and musts� that often lead to depression and unhappiness.
As a CBT therapist, we also examine behavior. If you are depressed, we encourage you to be more active, to establish a routine, to interact more with others. We also examine alcohol and drug habits. Some people who are depressed attempt to self-medicate through substance use. These band-aid cures never work in the long term. If we think your depression is serious enough or interfering with your functioning, we usually suggest that you meet with your family physician or a psychiatrist to discuss medication.
Depending on the severity of your problem, the psychotherapy need not be long-term. In fact, most psychologists like to see patients get better and move forward in their lives. Our job is to move you along, not to hold you back.
Q. I told my doctor I was depressed about recent deaths in my family and he suggested a drug called Celexa or Citalopram. My husband called it a happy pill. What is it exactly? I haven�t decided to take it yet.
A. Celexa is referred to as an SSRI (Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitor). It is thought to work by increasing the level of serotonin, a natural neurotransmitter, in the brain that is believed to play a role in regulating mood.
Celexa should not change your personality. It is not a �happy pill,� and you will not feel high from taking it. Hopefully, the medication will help you to deal more effectively and efficiently with life�s stressors such as family deaths.
Since the appearance of Prozac, another SSRI, in 1986, these drugs have helped many individuals overcome depression and anxiety disorders. Celexa is simply a newer SSRI which helps in relieving depression in less time. Prozac can bring relief in 4 to 6 weeks, but according to the American Society of Health-System Pharmacists, Celexa works for most people in 1 to 4 weeks. The SSRI medications have proven to be safe and effective for many individuals.
Before beginning any new medication, you and your physician should discuss the side effects and the interaction you may have with other prescription drugs. Be certain to tell your doctor if you use any recreational drugs or products from health food stores or other sources, and be honest about your alcohol consumption. There are sometimes side effect from Celexa, such as nausea, decreased appetite, and fatigue; however, for most people the side effects subside within a few days. If they continue or you have other difficulties, you should contact your physician.
Talk with your doctor should you decide to discontinue the medication. Sudden withdrawal can create unpleasant side effects, so you must taper off Celexa and most SSRI�s gradually.

Superman was one of eight comics sold as "Comicbook Candy." Each of
these booklets consisted of a cover, 14 pages of story and a back
cover advertisement for a DC Super Heroes Collector Album. These
mini-comics measured 4-1/4" tall and 2-3/4" wide. Last Friday's
bloggy thing had a photo of the product's display box. The Grand
Comics Database has indexed these comics and, thanks to the effort
of the GCD indexers, we know a lot about them. But not everything.
Here's what the GCD says about this cover: Somewhat based on the
cover to Superman #300 (June 1976). Dick Giordano in an email to
the indexer has confirmed he inked this cover, and suspects that he
pencilled it based on a layout from Carmine Infantino. However, it
also seems to have a Curt Swan look, particularly Jor-El and Lara.
"The Superman Story" is a good retelling of the hero's origin tale,
though it doesn't have room for much about the Man of Steel's adult
life. Lois Lane and Jimmy Olsen aren't even mentioned. As is the
case with most of these mini-comics, the writer of this one has not
yet been identified. The editor of the comic was most likely Joe
Orlando, who was in charge of special projects for many years. Can
anyone tell me when Orlando moved to that department?
As for the art, the GCD says: The Comic Reader #191 (May-June 1981)
lists the artists as "Rich Buckler/Dick Giordano". In separate e-
mails to the indexer, Rich Buckler has confirmed that he pencilled
it, Mike DeCarlo has confirmed that Dick Giordano inked it and Todd
Klein has confirmed that Ben Oda did the letters.
An additional note. The shot of the wildly gesturing Jor-El in the
sample pages above looks familiar. It looks like a swipe of a Irv
Novick figure to me, but I can't pinpoint where it first appeared.
Am I dead wrong on this? Am I right? As always, your comments would
be appreciated...especially if I'm right and you can tell me where
the swipe came from.
The Secret Origin of Wonder Woman will wrap up this bloggy series
on "Comicbook Candy" tomorrow. See you then.

The cover is definitely Swan.ReplyDelete
The panel of Jor-El rings a bell with me as well. I want to say that it was from a Deadman story/cover with that character reaching out. Of course, I admit to being as far from an art expert as you can get.ReplyDelete
I argued strongly on the GCD lists that DeCarlo had a hand in the interior inking, based on certain panels — although I just had the thought that perhaps I've long been mistaking some telltale elements of his work for (and/or conflating them with) that of Arne Starr, who assisted both Giordano and DeCarlo over the years.

Parental Guidance offers a confused and flat portrayal of generational differences. Starring Billy Crystal and Bette Midler as a couple trying to reconnect with their estranged daughter, Alice (Marisa Tomei), and three grandchildren, the film has a setup with potential for all sorts of embarrassing antics: Old-fashioned grandparents help take care of over-coddled, over-achieving kids for a week in a computer-automated house (think HAL sans all the evil). But the filmmakers rarely let their imaginations run wild with the possibilities of such a scenario. Tiresomely, they prefer to single-mindedly focus on, well, actual running. When Artie (Crystal), recently let go from his job as a minor league baseball announcer in favor of a fresh new voice, sneaks the kids some sugar, they start scurrying around—and when the family goes to hear some Tchaikovsky, Barker (Kyle Harrison Breitkopf) takes off sprinting through the aisles.
Often it seems like the movie, structurally, is in a great rush, too, as its hasty editing barely leaves a beat between lines. This doesn't help bring a listless script to life, though, and neither do most of the actors, with the exception of Bailee Madison, playing the oldest grandchild, Harper. In small moments, from her wide, natural smile after talking to a boy in school, to her scowl while endlessly practicing the violin, she provides the film's brief and only sparks of sincere emotion. It's hard to say, though, whether more heartfelt acting would have saved a film that still uses Tony Hawk and the X Games to represent youth culture and which has a relatively younger character ask, "When's the last time you hashtagged?"
The film's take on the older generation is equally imprecise. In one scene, Artie lays Barker across his knees, threatens to spank him in front of a concert hall full of people, and gives a speech about how kids today are given too much leeway. But this bland and generic argument about how modern parenting has left behind needed discipline eventually leads into an equal appeal for wholesomeness, a quality that doesn't normally include spanking threats. Of course, the real end game here is for all the generations to get along, in which case the old methods also prove best. You may someday have a house that talks to you and makes breakfast for you, the movie warns us, but it will never teach you how to connect with your family. For that, nothing works like a good ol' fashioned game of kick the can. Which is to say, not surprisingly, the film's solution for family bonding comes down to running around the backyard.

Need Help / Advice on Radon
Need Help / Advice on Radon (post #211040)
I tested for radon and I got a 6.1 result. I've spent some time looking at a bunch of youtube videos on how to get rid of radon and it can be a bit of work. Seems like if I hire a pro, its going to be 1200-2500.
Overall, the professional fix seems to be to pull that gas out from under the slab before it can get into the basement. This involves drilling through the basement floor and setting up a bunch of pipes. My basement is concrete floor and stone walls (built in 1897).
Since we don't use the basement much, I was thinking of actually running a 4" pvc pipe to the outside and having a small fan on the basement floor push the air into the pipe and out. This would generate negative pressure in the basement which in return would pull air from underneath the main door into the basement. The other option is to perhaps remove a couple of weather strips I put on the outside door that goes into the basement. Then there is the sealing any and all cracks I find on the floor. Though can I really seal the basement if I have stone walls?
Any opinions on this? Not looking to fully remove radon but to drop it to <4.
Also, is a 6.1 reading bad / severe?
Thanks Everyone! Sorry if I posted this in the wrong area.

As a contractor I'd say the (post #211040, reply #1 of 2)
As a contractor I'd say the correct fix is the more expensive option. On the other hand if it were my own house I'd carefully caulk any cracks in the floor and foundation then coat the concrete and stone with a barrier coat brushed on to reduce permiability to the gasses. If the soil under the slab is sandy a single vent through the slab ducted to the exterior with a small fan may work great to move the gases to the exterior. I'd have at least a small vent through the slab and a small vent for above slab air ducted to the exterior, but it may not have to be much - even a few air exchanges per hour will be vastly better than what you have now.
I'd seal the floor/walls and install a minimal vent above slab and retest.
If I could edit my location it would say I'm now in Reno :-)
I agree. Try the easy stuff (post #211040, reply #2 of 2)
I agree. Try the easy stuff first. Seal gaps at the floor/wall connection with good quality silicone caulk. See any other penetrations you can find, including any sump pit cover. Any connections into the floor should be addressed.
A slight positive pressure in the basement may help keep the infiltration down.
A 6 reading is low, but, above the EPA threshold of 4. Bad readings can be much higher and will require positive underslab evacuation.
Good luck, Bob.

Preparing for Surgery
Our nurses will contact you before your surgery to complete a pre-operative assessment. If we have not reached you by the day prior to your surgery, please call 650-324-8500 and ask to speak to a nurse regarding your pre-operative assessment.
Back to top
The Night Before Surgery
Do not eat any solid food or drink any liquids after midnight. This includes water, chewing gum and mints. Rinse your mouth without swallowing any liquid when you brush your teeth.
It is recommended that you refrain from smoking the day before and the morning of your surgery.
Back to top
The Morning of Surgery
Before surgery, you can play an important role in your own health. Because skin is not sterile, we need to be sure that your skin is as free of germs as possible. Cleaning your skin before surgery can reduce the risk of infection at your surgical site. You can reduce the number of germs on your skin by bathing/showering with a special soap called chlorhexidine gluconate (CHG)* either the night before your surgery OR the morning of your surgery.
*Not to be used by people allergic to chlorhexidine. Any other soap will do.
You should receive the Chlorhexidine gluconate scrub and instructions from your surgeon's office during your pre-op visit.
Wear loose, comfortable clothing to the hospital. For surgery involving the face, chest or abdominal area, a zippered or button-down garment is preferable. You will find this especially helpful when returning home, as you will want to avoid any unnecessary pressure on sensitive surgery sites.
Wear flat shoes. Slip-on styles are best.
Back to top
For Patients Staying Overnight
Bring any prescription medication or herbal supplements you are currently taking on a regular basis to the hospital in their original containers. Do not bring pain medication. Any pain medication you require will be provided at the hospital. Ask your physician if you should take your medication the day of your surgery.
Leave jewelry and other valuables at home. If you wear contact lenses, bring your glasses with you.
A patient gown, robe, towels, toothbrush and toothpaste will be available to you in your suite, but you are welcome to bring your own comfortable night clothes and slippers. Bring any additional personal toiletry items you require.
Visiting hours are 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. everyday. After 7:30 p.m. visitors will need to ring the doorbell to the left of the front door for admittance. One visitor may receive complimentary meals during your stay. You may have one guest over the age of 18 stay overnight with you in your suite. A hide-a-bed couch is provided.
As every patient suite is equipped with a flat screen TV with cable.
You may bring a calling card or cell phone to make personal calls from your room. Please remember cell phones should not be used in the hallway.
Patients are discharged at 11 a.m. Please arrange to be picked up at or before that time.
Back to top
When to Arrive
Please check in at the reception desk 75 minutes prior to your scheduled surgery time. You will need to go through the admission process with the admission clerk and a nurse, prepare for your surgery and meet with the anesthesiologist and physician. Pain management patients are required to check in one hour prior to the scheduled time.
For early morning surgery patients, please ring the doorbell for admittance. On occasion, surgery times can change. Please make sure we have your correct phone number to contact you the day of the surgery if we need you to arrive before your originally scheduled time.
Back to top
Special Precautions
Contact your surgeon or MPSH immediately if you experience any change in your health. Even a minor elevation in your temperature, a cold or a cough should be reported.
If you are a woman of childbearing age and suspect you may be pregnant, please notify your surgeon. Anesthesia and medications may be harmful to a developing fetus.
If you normally take medications during the fasting period, check with your surgeon to see if you should take them the night before or morning of your surgery.
You must have a family member or friend drive you home after surgery. If you do not have transportation, the staff will assist you in calling a taxi.

We like to support the causes that we care about and focus on things that are unique to Arizona. There's really nothing like MIM anywhere else. —Jack Watson, Producer's Circle member Watson and Trotter often attend performances at MIM Music Theater and favor the intimate setting it offers. They appreciate the diversity of acts that come to the theater; some of their favorite performances have included the baroque orchestra Apollo's Fire; Americana and folk singer-songwriter Rhiannon Giddens; and Black Violin, a duo who blends classical, hip-hop, rock, R&B, and bluegrass music. "MIM is something we really enjoy and we are happy to support the museum in any way we can. We can't give millions of dollars, but we can give a little, and we love being a part of helping make the museum so special," says Watson. Last year, MIM Music Theater hosted 258 concerts and the Producer's Circle helps that number continue to grow, while showcasing both local and international artists from a multitude of genres.

- What Do the New 2011 ALTA/ACSM Survey Standards Mean to Lenders?
- February 18, 2011 | Author: Frank A. Appicelli
- Law Firm: Bingham McCutchen LLP - Hartford Office
On February 23, 2011, the "2011 Minimum Standard Detail Requirements for ALTA/ACSM Land Title Surveys" go into effect and replace the 2005 Standards. The 2011 Standards were adopted by the American Land Title Association (ALTA) and the National Society of Professional Surveyors (NSPS) in the fall of 2010. The 2011 Standards have been described as the first major re-write of the standards since their initial adoption in 1962. Since an ALTA/ACSM survey is a standard closing requirement for a commercial mortgage loan, lenders will want to know what the 2011 Standards mean to them.
Concerns of Lenders
ALTA and NSPS report that the 2011 Standards are the result of two years of work by NSPS and a select group of title attorneys from ALTA. Most commercial mortgage lenders were probably not aware of this project. One understandable reaction of lenders will be concern that the drafters of the 2011 Standards, primarily surveyors, will have weakened the benefits of the ALTA/ACSM survey to lenders in an effort to insulate the surveying industry from liability and to reduce the work required to be undertaken by surveyors in a typical loan closing. While that has partly occurred, the scope of changes embodied by the 2011 Standards are not reminiscent of the changes forced on lenders by the insurance industry in their recent changes to the ACORD forms of insurance certificates. Nonetheless, lenders need to be aware of the changes in the 2011 Standards.
Summary of Changes
The depiction of the mortgaged property and the plottable title matters shown on a survey prepared under the 2011 Standards will differ very little from a survey prepared under the 2005 Standards. In large part, the differences between the 2011 Standards and the 2005 Standards are formatting revisions to the organization of the standards and the streamlining of terminology for consistency purposes. Other differences are technical in nature and are largely refinements in the measurement standards to be used by surveyors that should not materially affect lenders. The following is a listing of differences between the 2011 Standards and the 2005 Standards that may be of concern to lenders:
1. Exclusive Form of Surveyor's Certification: The 2011 Standards contain a "short-form" of surveyor's certification that is generally the same as the one contained in the 2005 Standards. However, the 2005 Standards described this certification as one that could be made when the surveyor had met all of the detail requirements of the 2005 Standards. This was generally interpreted by lenders as permitting changes and additions to this form of certification. In fact, nearly all lenders require their own version of a "long-form" certification from surveyors. This is no longer allowed under the 2011 Standards. The 2011 Standards state that "[t]he plat or map of an ALTA/ACSM Land Title Survey shall bear only the following certification, unaltered, except as may be required pursuant to [applicable laws or jurisdictional requirements]." This is the one change in the 2011 Standards that appears to be an intentional effort by the surveying industry to avoid complying with the additional survey certification requirements imposed by lenders and property owners. However, it should be noted that the 2011 Standards now require that the short-form certification contain the date of completion of the field work for the survey, which is something that most lenders required in their long-form certifications.
2. Recognition of Lenders: The 2005 Standards did not include any references to lenders within the scopes and purposes of the surveying standards. The 2005 Standards only implicitly recognized lenders as part of the surveying process by referring to lenders as a potential party who could be named within the short-form surveyor certification. The 2011 Standards now expressly recognize lenders as parties who have come to rely on complete and accurate surveying work. A skeptical lender could ascribe this express recognition of lenders as a way to be clear that the use of only the short-form surveyor's certification, without alteration, is mandatory for lenders.
3. Mandatory Depiction of Table A Items: The Table A appearing at the end of the 2005 Standards also appears in the 2011 Standards. The Table A items are described as optional survey responsibilities and specifications to be negotiated with the surveyor. In the 2011 Standards certain of these optional items have become mandatory items and have been moved out of Table A and into the main body of 2011 Standards. These new mandatory items are (a) the vicinity map showing the surveyed property in reference to nearby highways and major streets and (b) the indication of access to public ways such as curb cuts and driveways. For lenders who already required these items when they were optional under the 2005 Standards, this will not constitute a noticeable change.
4. Other Changes to Table A: Item 6 of Table A continues to cover zoning matters. Item 6 has been revised to add the zoning classification for the property as an optional item. However, Item 6 has been further amended to provide that the zoning classification and other zoning information are to be provided to the surveyor by the title insurer. Since title insurers do not generally provide this type of information, it will be interesting to see how the title insurers respond to this change. Another change to Table A has been the addition of the following new Items: (a) Item 2 — street address of property, (b) Item 19 — location of wetland areas, (c) Item 20 — location of improvements within offsite easements, and (d) Item 21 — furnishing of certificate of surveyor's professional liability insurance.
5. Greater Description of Access, Easements and Servitudes: In addition to making access to public ways a mandatory survey item, the 2011 Standards require more information to be depicted regarding access, easements and servitudes. For instance, the survey must show the width of all easements and provide information as to whether their locations are plottable or observed, whether they affect the surveyed property, and whether they are part of a blanket easement. The survey must also show the location of any other forms of access used by persons other than the occupants of the property.
6. Inclusion of Title Commitment Information: The 2011 Standards require the surveyor to note on the survey the title commitment or policy number, its effective date and the name of the title insurer. For lenders who previously required this information on their surveys, this will not be a change. However, this requirement will help to make the use of the short-form surveyor certification more palatable to lenders as this requirement was typically found in lenders' long-form certifications.
The implementation of the 2011 Standards will not bring about any major changes to lenders, other than prohibiting the use of a long-form surveyor certification. However, if lenders undertook a review of their standard long-form certifications, many will find that the items contained in their certifications are already covered by the requirements contained in the 2011 Standards. Where a particular lender's standard certification in fact provides additional critical protections (such as flood zone information and additional zoning information), that lender will need to determine how to continue to receive those protections or reasonable alternatives. One option is to obtain those protections from other vendors, like flood zone and zoning consultants, title insurers or engineering firms. Another option is to remove the item, such as flood zone or zoning information, from the certification and require it be shown elsewhere on the survey. A third option is to require the property survey to be prepared under state or local surveying standards if they do not prohibit the use of a long-form certification. In the end, each lender will need to compare their own surveying requirements against the 2011 Standards and determine whether any such alternatives are necessary or practical. We believe that most lenders will end up accepting the 2011 Standards, even if grudgingly, and will rely even more on the survey coverages afforded by the lenders' title insurance policies (when the standard survey exception is deleted).

– Bertha Edwards, Librarian at the Community Library.
Mrs. Edwards, who was the librarian at Portsmouth's Community Library during the 18 years of its existence (1945-1963), was describing the library's original location, at South and Effingham Streets, in the heart of Portsmouth's African American business district. In mid-20th century Portsmouth, as in so many other cities across the US, services and businesses were segregated. African Americans looking for everyday resources such as barbers or doctors might have to travel long distances to find a place that would serve them, simply because they were black. In cities like Portsmouth, enterprising businesspeople opened shops and businesses where black people were welcome. These businesses, often clustered together, became centers of social and community life.
A new exhibit at the Portsmouth Colored Community Library Museum, opening on October 14, will examine a few of these businesses and their role in the community. At Linwood Copeland Bailey's barber shop, for example, Mr. Bailey's fellow I.C. Norcom High School alumni from the football team frequently gathered to discuss politics. The Mutual Pharmacy and Drug Company offered medical services and pharmacy supplies at a time when African American Portsmouth residents might otherwise have to travel to Norfolk to see a doctor. This exhibit, along with the existing exhibit about the history of the Community Library itself, will remain on display at the museum through 2017.

Difference in Degree, not Kind
having me all retentive (a reaction
exacerbated if my shits are fiery),
sometimes it suffices for me to do
what I would be too ashamed to do
in front of a stranger. Like what?
Put my head in my shirt and hide

that my space is indeed private.
It could have been more private,
yes. But it does count as private.

Jimenez votes to override SB 9 veto
Rep. Sara Wojcicki Jimenez (R-Springfield) and 9 other GOP House members joined Democrats to override Gov. Bruce Rauner's veto of three budget bills. The vote puts to end a budget impasse that lasted more than two years.
Senate Bills 6, 9 and 42 passed the House and Senate but were vetoed swiftly by Rauner. The Senate moved just as fast to override the governor's veto on Tuesday. With the House's vote today, the budget bills are set to take immediate effect, including a permanent income tax increase.
GOP legislators who also voted to override Rauner's veto were Reps. Steven Andersson (R-Geneva), Reginald Phillips (R-Charleston), Rep. Mike Fortner (R-West Chicago), Chad Hays (R-Danville), Rep. Terry Bryant (Mt. Vernon), Norine K. Hammond (R-Macomb), David Harris (R-Mount Prospect), Bill Mitchell (R-Forsyth) and Michael D. Unes (R-East Peoria).
All the representative who voted to override SB 9 also cast yes votes on SB 6, with the exception of Rep. Dave Severin, who voted yes on SB 6 and no in SB 9.
Republican leaders have said the bills cut off further negotiations and don't include the kind of reform the state needs long term. In all, 10 Republicans voted to override Rauner's veto.
SB 6 sets up a $36 billion state budget. SB 9 is expected to raise more than $5 billion in revenue through personal income and corporate tax hikes. And SB 42 is known as a "paperwork" bill that implements the budget

45 million cubic metres of clean water is lost through leakages daily, but replacing leaky water pipes is a costly process both financially for the authorities who have to pay for the upkeep of the pipe system as well as the disruption caused while the work is being carried out. However, it is difficult to justify allowing such huge volumes of precious and treated clean water to disappear from the network.
A recent innovation by Grundfos Pumps called Demand Driven Distribution may be the breakthrough that the industry has been waiting for. Devised by Grundfos, it is not the complete answer, but provisional results indicate that it can reduce water wastage by an impressive 15 percent. And at very little cost.
The solution uses Grundfos' expertise in controls to ensure the pressure in the water pipes will never exceed what the actual required pressure is to ensure there will always be enough water to meet demand. This will mean a reduced pressure for a large part of the day and night, during periods of low demand. Positive side effects of this are that when pressure is lower, less water leaks from the pipes and reducing the pressure also leads to a reduction in energy consumption by an average of 25% as well as reducing new leaks in the pipe system.
The savings are so large that the average payback time for the control equipment is less than one year, including new pumps, which will explain why this solution has created great interest from water supply companies.
There are not too many 'true' win/win/win situations however, this could be one of them as this solution will benefit the water authorities, customers and the environment.

The FBI swarmed in on my neighbors house this morning located in Pahoa, Hawaii.
I first noticed something was going on when my dogs were barking loudly and I looked out my window and saw FBI Agents with large guns and bullet proof vests surrounding the house. After the house was secured… they took off most of their clothes stating that they were FBI Agents.
One of the FBI Agents had a "Battering Ram" and I knew that something was about to go down so I grabbed my iPhone and started to take pictures.
I called Hawaii News Now Cameraman Darryl Lee and told him what was going on and that he might want to come check things out.
I asked Sergeant Scott Amaral what the heck was going on and he said he wasn't able to comment on the matter, however, he assisted me in getting one of the FBI Agents to come out and talk with me for a few minutes.
They were inside the house for nearly two hours talking to the occupants of the house and then they started removing some boxes with what looked like some files in them.
I asked the FBI Agent that was sent out to talk to me about what was going on and he said he was not authorized to speak on the matter and gave me a number to the FBI's media relations on Oahu. I've tried calling the number several times and have left a message asking them to get back to me on the matter.
They were at the house for nearly two and a half hours before they packed up their stuff and left. No arrests were made that I could tell of and only some property removed from the house.
It's still a mystery to me as to why they were there… but I expect to find out soon enough since I gave an interview to Hawaii News Now.

Mizzou Ready for SEC in Rout of Tar Heels
Aaron Schafer
December 27, 2011 at 3:42 PM
The half-page welcome ad from the LSU Tigers to the Missouri Tigers this past week. Quite a change from the Texas and Oklahoma Mafia family antics of the Big XII.
I really thought the
Independence Bowl
held a tough matchup for
North Carolina
had talent to burn, not to mention one of the stoutest run defenses in all of college football. I thought there was a very good chance the game was going to come down to James Franklin being forced to try and throw the ball to win a close game, and I could easily see such a situation coming unglued for the Tigers in a hurry.
Instead of pitting a stonewall run defense against the Tigers' spread ground attack, though, the Independence Bowl really served as a coming out party of sorts for Missouri quarterback
James Franklin
It also served as a jumping-off point for the national sports media to begin the narrative about Mizzou moving to the
next year and what, if any, impact Franklin himself may have on the team's immediate fortunes.
If last night was really any indication, the Tigers and their quarterback should be just fine.
While Franklin will certainly grab all the headlines -- and deservedly so -- the real heroes of this game were the men making room for him to run through. The Mizzou offensive line absolutely manhandled the North Carolina defense, a defense which features some of the brightest talent in all of college football.
Quinton Coples
is the best known of the group, a defensive end projected to go in the top half of the first round in this year's draft, but he's far from the only NFL-level talent
Butch Davis
managed to bring in before he was shown the door.
On the night the Tigers rolled up 337 total yards on the ground. Franklin called his own number 18 times for 142 yards,
Kendial Lawrence
went over 100 yards (108, to be exact), on 16 carries, and
De'Vion Moore
kicked in 59 yards on just 10 carries. Franklin ran for a pair of touchdowns and Lawrence added one of his own. It was, to put it lightly, a rather impressive show of force. And all without the Tigers' top running back,
Henry Josey
, aka the
Big XII's
leading rusher.
Franklin wasn't limited to running plays only, by any means; he threw for another 132 yards and a touchdown. His only real miscue came on an interception shown on replay to have been caused by a defender hitting Franklin's arm as he released the ball. On the Tigers' first drive of the night, Franklin completed a pass over the middle to
L'Damian Washington
(native of
Shreveport, Louisiana
, in fact, enjoying a very nice homecoming game), down to the two yard line that I honestly think may have been the single best throw the Mizzou quarterback made all year. I've often talked about my concerns over Franklin's arm strength and his ability to throw into tight coverage windows; the pass to Washington was absolutely perfect. Perfect velocity, perfect timing, perfect location.
The more I've watched Franklin this season, the more his game resembles that of
Tim Tebow
made the comparison all the way back in September
, and I feel more and more as time goes on it was a good comp. Franklin is a couple inches shorter than Tebow -- and doesn't come with nearly as much of the baggage -- but otherwise his physical skillset and style of play are a remarkably good match. Let's just hope Franklin can lead the Tigers to the same kind of heights Tebow did Florida.
Mizzou let up off the gas a bit in the second half, allowing North Carolina's talented quarterback
Bryn Renner
to pull the Tar Heels back into the game a bit. Bottom line, though, is what I thought would be a great matchup and a tough test for the Tigers looked more like a mismatch by the time the first half came to a close.
Really, the only disappointment on the night was the
painfully small crowd
in Shreveport, thanks in large part to some awful weather. Even with the climatic difficulties, I still thought the game would be better attended. It was Missouri's first real chance to make an impression in SEC territory, and to see such a small turnout was a little disheartening. The chants of, "S-E-C, S-E-C," from the Tiger fans toward the end were nice, but still, as first impressions go it wasn't a sterling showing of Mizzou's drawing power.
Then again, considering the impression the Tigers made on the field, the size of the crowd probably didn't make a bit of difference. James Franklin and his teammates said all that needed to be said about what kind of team they'll be bringing to their new conference next season.

Last week I did the MCTS Exam 70-516: Accessing Data with ADO.NET 4. Luckily I passed it at the first attempt. Because there are still no official Microsoft preparation materials out there (the according book will be released in June 2011), it was not that easy to prepare for the exam. I used the following preparation materials:
- MCTS 70-516 Practice Test by MeasureUp
- MSDN (ADO.NET 4.0 and EF4)
The practice tests by MeasureUp are really nice. They give you a very good feeling about the focus areas of the real exam and can be used to effectively learn the content. What's sometimes missing with the practice tests is the context. That means that sometimes in the real exam you need to know a little bit more around a certain feature than you get to know within the practice tests. So that's why I would suggest reading the MSDN or even trying out some features by yourself within a little sample application.
If you're going to do that exam too: Good Luck! I will head on to the next exam and post my experiences here again.

The software display seems outdated on the web. With the introduction of Web 2.0 and fluid layouts and pages, the appeal of the Crowdworx platform to an uninformed, or new user, may be very difficult to motivate. The platform does not capture the audience at first glance.

We engaged B2B customers using the CrowdWorx platform to discuss ideas for new products and services. The project was implemented on VERY short notice and the folks from CrowdWorx were instrumental in meeting our deadlines in this very successful project. The platform was intuitive and we could interact directly with the participants, which was very important for us.

The system started as an internal innovation management software but over time we have added various new use cases to it. It still is used for idea management but in additional we also use a separate area of it as a crowdsourcing tool with external participants. Recently we have started to add another use case to make it an online design thinking tool. The flexibility of this platform is impressive and the folks at CrowdWorx are very helpful when it comes to discovering new ways of using their tool. The feedback we are getting from our users (we are >200,000 employees) is very good.

We have been using CrowdWorx for running global idea campaigns with both customers and employees. We found the global coverage to be very useful for running our campaigns in the U.S., Latin America and other countries.

I was involved introducing the CrowdWorx system to the whole Telekom organization where more than 105,000 users would use the platform. Back in 2011 we have evaluated more than 50 innovation management systems globally and have chosen CrowdWorx as we found it to be the most versatile and flexible of all platforms.

We are using CrowdWorx as a global ideation and crowdsourcing tool. All of our employees worldwide have access to it and we have achieved very good results thus far with the tool. What is great is the flexibility of the platform which enables us to address many kinds of challenges.

As a media agency with offices in Europe and South Africa Crowdworx is our online ideation tool which connects our people from all offices. After we had the vendor configure the tool in such a way that we could focus only on the things we wanted it is pretty lightweight. It covers all our innovation-related work now.
What seems to be missing are some community features. They do have a basic community module and it could benefit from more dynamic social networking features, similar to what yammer and facebook has. We did consider using yammer, and JIRA, both tools we like. But for ideation they just have too few features and it's not possible to do ideation with them like with Crowdworx.

I'm working with this system on a regular basis since 2010. During this time I have worked with the Crwoworx folks on numerous projects and I can honestly say that they are the best team I have ever worked with. Their support is excellent, they always think along and go to great lengths to understand our industry and needs. So I hope to continue working with them for many more years.

text: Dear Colleagues, I am currently compiling a comprehensive Bibliography of the Pseudepigrapha, 1850-1999, which will be published this year in the _Journal for the Study of the Pseudepigrapha_ Supplement Series of Sheffield Academic Press. J.H. Charlesworth will compose a preface to the work. Every text that appears in Charlesworth's _Old Testament Pseudepigrapha_ is addressed in my work. The bibliography for each text (= a "section") is presented in a highly structured format that identifies editions (by version), the translations, the secondary studies, and so on. In addition to the sections on Charlesworth's texts, I include sections or sub-sections on i) many of the other Adam, Baruch, Daniel, Elijah, Ezekiel, and Moses pseudepigrapha from Qumran to the early mediaeval and Byzantine periods; ii) 11QPs(a) and other texts containing non-Masoretic psalms; iii) the/a book of Noah; iv) the book of Elchasai; v) the oracles of Hystaspes and the Potter; vi) Sefer Zerubbabel and other late Hebrew apocalypses; vii) the Cave of Treasures; and viii) special themes like the genre Testament in antiquity, the genre Romance in antiquity, the Jews in Ptolemaic Egypt, Martyrdom in early Judaism and Christianity, Sibyls in the classical and early Christian world, and the Second-Temple calendar. The bibliography is nearly complete, and many of the sections have been reviewed by referees. One of the remaining tasks is to ensure that recently-published scholarship is listed, especially those works that are dated 1999 but will not appear in print until 2000 or later. Accordingly, I ask scholars who have 1. published academic work on any of the aforementioned texts or themes in 1999 (especially if the work is still forthcoming); or 2. published work in the late 1990's in sources that may difficult to locate outside North America or Western Europe; or 3. published work in the late 1990's in sources not normally indexed in the standard abstracts and reviews of research to contact me privately by e-mail or post with the full bibliographic details of their work. In this way I will be able to verify that all the important recent scholarship is appropriately listed. If not immediately evident in the title, please specify which text or theme is addressed in the work and whether it presents an edition or translation of all or part of a text (and the version, if appropriate). Notice of unpublished doctoral dissertations is also welcome. I very much look forward to your reply. I am also willing to answer privately any questions regarding the details of the project.

PrintCity VAPoN Resource Book Launched
Tuesday, April 15, 2008
Press release from the issuing companyAugsburg, Germany, 15 April 2008 – The PrintCity Alliance announced its new Value Added Printing of Newspapers VAPoN 'Resource Book' at the WAN 2008 World Newspaper Advertising Conference in Budapest.
The PrintCity VAPoN study began in 2006 and was completed in early 2008, analysing and assessing all economic, production and operational factors involved in the many areas of value added newspaper production. The final PrintCity VAPoN report is published in the form of a 'Resource Book' in its Webline series of special reports, and is available immediately via email@example.com or from any VAPoN project team members, free of charge.
PrintCity VAPoN project team members are: Eltex, MacDermid, MAN Roland, MEGTEC, Océ, Sun Chemical and UPM. Contact details for all members can be found at www.printcity.de
This Resource Book is believed to be the only comprehensive analysis of all factors involved with value added newspaper printing & publishing. As such it is a 'must read' for all CEO's, Publishers, Advertising & Marketing Directors, Production Directors, Press Room Managers, Technical Directors and interested professionals.
The WAN Advertising Conference in Budapest was an ideal launching point for this market leading PrintCity Alliance Value Added Printing Resource Book, as the conference title was "Reaching New Audiences and Building New Revenues", with 350 participants from 64 countries.
Sabine Sirach of MAN Roland made a PrintCity VAPoN presentation together with Axel Springer's Ahrensburg Press Room Manager Christian Gaidies.
In his presentation Christian Gaidies commented, "We decided we would not sit back and watch a decline, but start a campaign demonstrating our potential for print quality" says Mr Gaidies, who described the special effects, supplements and other products as 'sexing them up to attract readers.'"
By quality printing, Mr Gaidies meant anything that adds value optically or any special pre-prints and supplements that can be inserted into the newspaper. Special inks and paper, and a wide array of new publications mean that commercial printing at Axel Springer's offset printing plant in Ahrensburg rose considerably between 2000 and 2007 because of these measures.
In conclusion Christian Gaidies said, "Newspaper printing is on the move."
In support Sabine Sirach commented, "The WAN conference presentation was a big success. I had the chance to introduce Christian Gaidies as one of our customers using many of the techniques we're analysing in the VAPoN project. The combination was very powerful.
"The statistics in the VAPoN study raised lots of interest. After our session, Christian and I were approached by many people. The users were very interested in all the findings we have."
