Fresh Air Weekend: Tarantino, Waltz, 'Downton'
Originally published on Sat January 5, 2013 2:16 pm
Fresh Air Weekend highlights some of the best interviews and reviews from past weeks, and new program elements specially paced for weekends. Our weekend show emphasizes interviews with writers, filmmakers, actors and musicians, and often includes excerpts from live in-studio concerts. This week:

Tarantino was inspired both by spaghetti Westerns and the drama of slavery and the Civil War. The movie is extremely violent — but, says Tarantino, "What happened during slavery times is a thousand times worse.

I’ve always been a HUGE fan of Shepherd’s Pie.
If there was ever a dish that I could never get enough of, nor resist going for seconds, this would be the one. However, since it doesn’t sit too well with my new healthy lifestyle, I don’t eat it nearly as often as I used to. And when I do have it, it’s a completely revisited dish that I end up eating…
Let’s face it: Shepherd’s Pie, as I learned to make it, using regular ground beef, frozen corn kernels and mashed white potatoes made super creamy thanks (or not!) to the addition of tons of butter, cream and salt, did not constitute the healthiest of meals.
Especially not if you’re going to add a VERY generous serving of “reconstituted” 5 Pepper Sauce on top of it.
Yeah… I used to do all that!
And I must admit that I truly miss it, sometimes.
I mean sure, there are ways to play with the recipe and make it healthier, by making it vegetarian, for instance, or adding more veggies in an effort to boost its nutritional value.
But none of the healthified versions I made ever really
|
came close to the real thing.
Up until now!
This, ladies and gentlemen, tasted ALMOST like the dish I remember.
Yet, it’s loaded with all kinds of yummy veggies, namely tomatoes, zucchinis, cauliflower and aubergine, as

We love Garner. Nice sites, quiet in the winter. They now have Wi-Fi. Campfires depend on the current rainfall. We love spending New Year's there. Downside: the check-in process is slow and clunky. But it's worth it for a quiet, safe getaway in a beautiful spot. Hiking is good, but can be steep, so go prepared. We take our bikes and there are plenty of roads to pedal around the park.
Water hookups are available, but the water is brackish and not drinkable. Host told us potable water was available in town for free, but that is not correct, drinking water must be bought. Free drinking water is only available for Surfside residents. We called ahead and asked the lady who owns the campground if the campground was quiet. The host told us it was, but she "forgot" to tell us that there were two huge St Patrick's Day parties within feet of the campground and a party booked in the campground the night we were there. We got very little sleep after looking for a quiet restful place for a weekend away from work. We felt this was a misrepresentation. Her husband later told my husband that we "probably never had
|
fun in any campground". Our definition of fun is not his business and he was very rude and very insulting. We were very specific in what we were looking for. If that wasn't what they could offer, they shouldn't have promised it. There is one restroom with one toilet, one sink and one shower for both sexes - it was bare bones to say the least. No AC. A space heater I would be afraid

We knew that the call for Assad to step down has been coming, well today the US is leading that global call for Assad to leave Syria. Secretary Clinton: For the Sake of Syrian People, the Time Has Come for President Asad To Step Aside | U.S. Department of State Blog
Today, President Obama called for the President of Syria, Bashar al-Asad, to step aside and took the strongest financial action against the Syrian regime thus far. Following the President’s statement, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton addressed the situation in Syria.Secretary Clinton said, “For months, the world has borne witness to the Asad regime’s contempt for its own people. In peaceful demonstrations across the nation, Syrians are demanding their universal human rights. The regime has answered their demands with empty promises and horrific violence, torturing opposition leaders, laying siege to cities, slaughtering thousands of unarmed civilians, including children.”The Asad government has now been condemned by countries

Follicleanse® Shampoo and No Weight® Conditioner
I’ve been using a new shampoo and conditioner for the last month and I wanted to share it with you. Follicleanse® Shampoo is a deep cleaning shampoo that’s meant to remove the sebum on your scalp (the oil that your glands release that blocks the hair follicles). To do this it uses the power of Zinc PCA to clear away your dandruff and oil and then the botanical extracts work to heal and repair scalp inflammation as well as irritation and to balance your oil production to end your dandruff.
For those who don’t

suffer from the flaking and itching caused by dandruff, Follicleanse® Shampoo is a fabulous clarifying shampoo which cleans away excess hair products that have built up. The shampoo is Paraben free which is a must in my book, but it does have the foaming agent Sodium Laureth Sulfate which can cause irritation for some users.

We at Skips and AllBeerPong.com had a great summer and is optimistic that every one else did as well. The great parts about summer time are the beaches, summer jobs to make some money, catching up with friends and family, BBQs, and our personal favorite, playing beer pong. Fortunately, beer pong is an all-seasons activity. Now that students are returning back to school they can put all that summer practice to good use.
As responsible members of today’s society, Skip’s encourages all students to make sure they come back to school prepared with the right supplies.

You should have your books, paper, pens, pencils, backpacks, meal cards, television, late night snack box, condoms, and an inflatable floating beer pong table or folding beer pong table of course!

We saw some positive signs in the housing market this spring that were reinforced by some pretty good numbers in March for sales and prices of homes across the country. According to the Atlanta Business Chronicle, metro Atlanta didn't fare as well in April, though. Other places in the US continued to see improvement in their local markets, but Metro Atlanta home prices reportedly dropped 5.3% in April.
The Atlanta Business Chronicle article I just read says residential real state research firm, CoreLogic, reports home prices remain in decline in metro Atlanta. Metro Atlanta home prices fell 5.3 percent year-over-year in April. The news follows two recent reports of home price declines here:
- Metro Atlanta home values dropped 7.8 percent year-over-year in April, according to the latest Zillow Real Estate Market Report.
- Home prices in metro Atlanta dropped 17.7 percent year-over-year in March, according to the latest S&P/Case-Shiller monthly report.
National home prices rose on a year-over-year basis by 1.1 percent in April, CoreLogic said. That marked the second consecutive year-over-year increase this year and the first time two consecutive increases have occurred since June 2010.
On a month-over-month basis, national

home prices were up 2.2 percent in April -- the second consecutive month-over-month increase in 2012.
“Excluding distressed sales, home prices in March and April are improving at a rate not seen since late 2006 and appreciating at a faster rate than during the tax-credit boomlet in 2010,” said Mark Fleming, chief economist for CoreLogic, in a statement. “Nationally, the

Today, the New York Times published an article in which it examined the lobbying record of Rick Davis, Sen. John McCain’s (R-AZ) campaign manager. Based on interviews with current and former officials at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and public records, the Times found that over a period of five years, Davis made nearly $2 million lobbying for the two mortgage giants:
Senator John McCain’s campaign manager was paid more than $30,000 a month for five years as president of an advocacy group set up by the mortgage giants Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to defend them against stricter regulations, current and former officials say.
The McCain campaign’s response to the article was surprisingly vicious. On a conference call with reporters, McCain campaign strategist Steve Schmidt called the New York Times a “pro-Obama organization” and said, “it is not today — by any standard — a journalistic organization.” Davis claimed, “I never lobbied a single day.” Listen to a TPM Election Center recording here:
But just yesterday, in an interview with McCain, CNBC’s John Harwood said he’d be “glad to have [Davis's] record examined.” In a portion of the interview that does not appear to have

been broadcast by CNBC, Harwood asked McCain about his campaign manager’s former lobbying activities:

Wild Radio Lab is a creative group within the Flemish national public-service broadcaster, VRT, that looks to push the boundaries of what radio can do and be.
For the next Wild Radio Day in Brussels, 3 March 2012, Ward Weis is planning an installation piece that addresses the question “What is radio all about?” Weis plans to collect “a lot of spoken quotes by people out in the (great) world of radio” and to embed them behind QR matrix barcodes (such as the one at right).
In the installation, visitors will hear a composition of radio noises from an array of speakers and they can walk through the space using their smartphones to scan the QR codes to play back the answers to the question “What

“Graphic Details: Confessional Comics by Jewish Women” is the first museum exhibit to explore this unique niche of autobiographical storytelling by Jewish women. The touring exhibit, sponsored by the Forward, features the work of 18 Jewish women artists. The Jewish Women’s Archive — whose Jewesses With Attitude blog partners regularly with The Sisterhood — is interviewing each of the artists about their work and their experience as a female, Jewish graphic artist. This week’s interview is with Ilana Zeffren, an acclaimed Israeli cartoonist. Zeffren’s Sipur Varod, her graphic autobiography as an Israeli lesbian, is widely regarded as a breakthrough comic. Much of her work is available on her Flickr photostream.
Leah Berkenwald: How did you get into cartooning?
Ilana Zeffren: I got into comics after a dramatic break-up with my first girlfriend. After I stopped sobbing, I realized that what happened was actually kind of funny and ridiculous, so I made a comics strip about it. When I did it, I realized how much this medium that combines words and illustrations suits

Summer is one of my favorite times as a teacher! Like most teachers I like to take a little time away from school, but, once I've rested a bit, its my favorite time to do research as well.

I understand that in the non-Jewish world, men compete for a female's attention by engaging in feats of strength. But this woman was a rabbi, and I figured a potential mate who knew his way around a kosher chicken and came to her perfumed with parsnips and schmaltz would be just short of irresistible.
Did I mention I needed to make enough soup for 200 people?
The seder was to be held at the synagogue she served, Mishkon Tephilo in Venice. It was one of those American Jewish traditions, the second-night synagogue seder. Congregants paid for the pleasure of celebrating their People's liberation from slavery by drinking four paper cups of fermented grape syrup and eating two jellied balls of ground-up fish and a dollop of sinus-searing relish.
And we wonder why there are so few Jews.

Title: Lattice Point Problems and the Central Limit Theorem in Euclidean Spaces
A number of problems in probability and statistics lead to questions about the actual error in the asymptotic approximation of nonlinear functions of the observations. Recently new methods have emerged which provide optimal bounds for statistics of quadratic type. These tools are adaptions of methods which provide sharp bounds in some high dimensional lattice point remainder problems and solve some problems concerning the distribution of values of quadratic forms.

(BPT) - When you're looking for a job, the holidays may seem like a time to take a break. But if you do, you may miss the employment opportunity you've been waiting for. Why is the off season of job searching actually a hidden opportunity to become employed?
Job searching from Thanksgiving to the middle of January provides many unique opportunities, says Donna Dessart, director of Career Services at The Art Institute of California - San Francisco, a campus of Argosy University.
Reduced competition from those individuals who stop their job search at this time, and the need for some employers to spend their end of the year budgets or gear up for the new year favor the active

job searcher. What's more is this festive season is an ideal time to be social, get organized and keep motivated.

Clojure is a new functional language for the JVM. This post is a collection of links, articles, screencasts and free books I’ve found to help me learn the language and understand functional program design.
Here are some key features of Clojure that I find extremely interesting:
- Designed for concurrency
- A Lisp dialect – functional, not mixed-paradigm like Scala
- Compiles to Java bytecode
- Easy interoperability with Java libraries
- Immutable data structures
- Manage state with transactions
A lot of this seems to blow away the languages I use on a regular basis, like Ruby and PHP. Furthermore I’ve had some misgivings lately about the gaggle of run-times I end up using as a multi-language programmer using mostly interpreted languages. So the fact
|
that Clojure compiles to Java bytecode is a real selling point for me, despite my historical avoidance of Java.
You’ll need an editor to start working with Clojure. Though I’m a Vim user, I could not get VimClojure working right on my machine. Drop me a line if you got it running – hurray for you!
If you are on Windows, I recommend the super-easy-to-install Clojure Box. After a couple of clicks, you’ll have Emacs and a working

Following this Chiefs team is truly a different experience. Based on where you go, this is a team living in the middle of two different worlds; actually three. There’s the world outside of Arrowhead, which is divided, and then there is the world that resides inside of Arrowhead.
Outside of Arrowhead the opinion is split. You have your believers, and you have your non-believers. Honestly, both sides can argue their points with validity. The division of fans simply depends on what each has seen with their own eyes to date. Plenty of close friends argue daily

about each point of view.
To each his own; that’s what sports are all about. This is part of the entertainment.

"Xerox is concerned that these 'impressions' you are referring to suggest DHHR may be pre-judging the merits of Xerox's protest," Xerox attorney Carte Goodwin wrote to Bruner on Jan. 30.
"In closing, as it has the right to do, Xerox has filed a lawful protest to a procurement process that has numerous flaws, inconsistencies, errors and conflicts," the letter said. "And as it has the right to do, Xerox has filed a lawful public document request."
Xerox's protest, filed in late December, was just the latest twist in a bidding process that has dragged on for nearly two years at DHHR. The contract has been bid out three times because of problems with two initial bids.
Xerox alleges Molina won the new $250 million contract in part because Molina cut a multi-million dollar "side deal" with

Light sails are used as guiding symbols for the state exhibition around the Millstaetter Lake, Austria. In the 90's the lighthouse, one of the oldest communication systems, was used as a metaphor for orientation through the World Wide Web by the internet browser "Netscape Navigator". The lighthouse - a point of orientation, to be seen from far, was long time used for shipping throughout day and night. Nowadays the lighthouse is used as a symbol for holidays, for the sea, for adventures and water.
The idea to design the 7 light sails comes out of that old and very well known lighthouses. As lighthouses, the light sails, are used to guide the visitors around the different exhibitions.
The objects are abstract sails, as a "light-space-installation". The objects are orientated to the lake. The lake Millstaetter Lake is getting a tribune out of water, because the energy of the lake is trapped, converted and reflected as light. So the sails are working as a transmitter and receiver at the same time.
The illumination of the light sails itself is reacting to the surrounding - the more people approaching the sails the more vibrate light. The illumination is

also reacting to the temperature - they are constantly changing their color. The colder the temperature the warmer the color of light is getting and inverse.

You think the 15 million people who buy Call Of Duty every year would abandon it if they couldn't trade the game? They play it all year online so it wouldn't be an issue to them, they will go to the console that plays it and if it was exclusive to Nextbox they would go there.
They'd just play something else instead. Consumers are a fickle bunch, and should not be underestimated. To think they'll follow blindly is the first step to failure.

The GW620 / LinkMe is LG’s first Android smartphone and comes with a 3 inch HVGA touchscreen display (resistive, unfortunately), as well as a full 5-row QWERTY keyboard.
The handset also features HSPA, Wi-Fi, A-GPS, full HTML browser, access to Android Market, LinkBook (which provides easy access to social networking sites like Facebook and Twitter), 3.5mm headset jack, 5MP autofocus camera with flash, and a 1GB memory card in the box.
Like the GW620, LG LinkMe runs Android 1.5 and it will probably be upgraded only to Android 1.6. In Italy, the phone costs €299 (about $405

Bid protest halts construction at Birds Point Levee
Restoring the Birds Point-New Madrid Levee to its original height may take a little more time.
A bid protest halted construction at the Southeast Missouri levee.
A&M Engineering and Environmental Services from Tulsa, Oklahoma protested the type of contract the Army Corps of Engineers awarded to rebuild the levee. A&M also challenged the government’s evaluation of their proposal.
Army Corps of Engineers officials will review the bid process to determine the merits of the protest.
Army Corps of Engineers spokesperson Jim Pogue says there is no timetable to resume construction.
“Each day that we have a stop work in effect is, you know, a day that puts us behind. So we’re very hopeful that we can get this resolved quickly and get back to work because we want to get the levee fully restored just as quickly as possible,” Pogue said.

As I look out my window right now and see the overcast, gray sky I’m reminded of the seasons changing and although fall is coming up, winter is just around the corner. While it’s a wonderful practice to be in the present moment, at times it’s good to look toward the future so we can use this moment for planning.
I believe it was Benjamin Franklin who said, “Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.” When it comes to seasonal affective disorder (SAD) or just being negatively affected by less light or shorter days, this is a great opportunity to get your ducks in a row to stave off a depressive slide.
Here are 5 key tips to stave off any upcoming fall and winter blues:
- Mindfulness training – If you haven’t jumped in yet now may be the time. Mindfulness is a wonderful practice for breaking out of the ruminative cycle that can get triggered as the days get

shorter. We start to open the mind to become more appreciative of what’s here instead of focused on what isn’t here. This is the seed of resiliency. If you’re in Los Angeles, I have an 8-week Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT) group to prevent

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Rep. Patrick Murphy, an Iraq war veteran, kicked off a push Wednesday to persuade Americans that the president should repeal "don't ask, don't tell," the policy that prevents openly gay troops from serving in the U.S. military.
Rep. Patrick Murphy, a veteran of the Iraq war, says it is time to end "don't ask, don't tell."
Murphy, D-Pennsylvania, appeared along with several gay, lesbian and straight service members to launch the initiative.
"We can not afford to wait any longer" for the policy's repeal, Murphy said at the National Press Club in Washington. "Now is the time to change this, when our military is stretched so thin" with wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.
A "Voices of Honor" tour, sponsored by the Human Rights Campaign, will travel across the country, sharing stories of gay, lesbian and straight servicemen and -women in hopes of garnering support for the Military Readiness Enhancement Act, which would repeal the law that established the policy.
The act would allow gay and lesbian Americans to serve in the military without concealing their sexuality.

monese said in a statement, "We must repeal this discriminatory policy and ensure that our military can recruit and retain the best and the brightest troops regardless of their sexual orientation."
President Obama has said he wants Congress to repeal the law, but gay rights groups have been angered that the president has not done more to hasten the change.
Since Obama took office, 287 service members

A Stearns County Sheriff's deputy stands at a perimeter at the corner of Main Street and 3rd Avenue in Cold Spring early Friday morning. Crime scene tape crosses Main Street between 3rd Avenue and 2nd Avenue/St. Clouds Times Eric Stromgren
ST. CLOUD, Minn. - The man arrested in connection with the shooting death of Cold Spring officer Tom Decker told the St. Cloud Times in a jailhouse interview that authorities have the wrong man.
"Basically, they have no evidence whatsoever that points in my direction," Ryan Larson said during a phone call to the Times from the Stearns County Jail.
During the 10-minute interview, Larson gave his account of activities on the day of the shooting from 8:30 a.m. to 8:17 p.m., when he said he went to sleep. He said his time on Thursday was filled with school, homework and visiting friends.
On Thursday night, before Decker was killed, Larson's family members reportedly told police they were concerned for Larson's well-being and asked officers to check on him.
|
"I did send a couple text messages to my parents letting them know that tomorrow (Friday) was a big day," Larson said.
Larson said the messages were meant to indicate that he'd be taking a new direction in school, not that he was going to harm himself. Larson is a student at St. Cloud Technical & Community College

I think I seriously screwed up my eyeballs.

A few days ago I was at the eye doctor and they put in those numbing eyedrops to do the pressure test. The doctor told me I could wear contacts afterwards but that it would destroy those contacts for future use, so he gave me a pair to use that day and then throw away. I took my old contacts home in a different case.
Somehow, I don't know how, but possibly because I am a giant moron, I must have screwed up the two sets of contacts and thrown away the wrong pair. A

Investigators in West Virginia are searching for at least one other suspect involved in a nightclub shooting early Saturday that resulted in the death of Donte D. Newsome, a player for the Amarillo Dusters of the arenafootball2 league.
Police found no evidence that Newsome, 25, was armed, said Sgt. John Williams, supervisor of the violent crimes division with the Huntington, W.Va., Police Department. Authorities have determined that a second man, 24-year-old Curtis Keyes, also was not armed during the confrontation. Keyes, who was shot in the foot, was treated at a hospital and released.
Keyes and Newsome were formerly teammates on the Marshall University football team. Newsome played for Marshall from 2002-05. The university is located in Huntington.
Newsome was shot multiple times outside the Fluid nightclub in downtown Huntington, allegedly by a man, Jerel Addision Garner, 26, with whom he had an argument that evening, Williams said. Garner, 26, also was shot multiple times.
Police are certain that Newsome was shot first at around 3 a
|
.m. Saturday, but investigators still did not know Tuesday who shot Garner or Keyes, Williams said.
After treatment at a hospital, Garner was jailed Sunday on suspicion of first-degree murder, Williams said.
Police continue to collect evidence and interview witnesses, Williams said.

Welcome to NAMM: Day 3
January 15, 2011
The third day of NAMM is behind us, and here are some more highlights from the show floor.
Zildjian has been in the cymbal business for centuries and for 14 generations; the grandchild of the current owners of the firm, the 16th generation, gives her name to gen16, Zildjian's new line of digital cymbal products. There's a high-quality sound library tied to a powerful virtual instrument based on FXpansion's BFD Eco, which we'll be reviewing in a future issue, and a fascinating line of real metal perforated cymbals integrated with phase-cancelling microphone mounts and a special sound-modeling brain, creating a huge range of sounds from cymbals that play like the real thing and are far quieter than their acoustic counterparts. I was geeking out big time at the demo, which I wouldn't have believed without hearing it myself.

TTC still searching for a better way for riders
Explore This Story
It’s March 23 and TTC CEO Andy Byford has the Toronto Board of Trade breakfast crowd eating out of his hands. He opens his talk about modernizing the TTC with a joke about preparing the slides for his speech on an overhead projector.
The quip gets a solid chuckle from the assembled suits, many who wouldn’t know an overhead from a typewriter or record player.
But Byford knows the TTC’s dated technology and traditional business practices are no joke to the system’s 1.6 million daily riders.
Since taking over the top job from his politically ousted predecessor in February, the sleeves-up Brit who came to Toronto via Sydney, has put his shoulder into bringing the TTC into the 21st century.
It’s not precisely the makeover prescribed two years ago in the report by the blue ribbon panel on customer service that was convened to stem a brewing mutiny among transit riders.
But Byford’s modernization efforts, including a five-year strategic plan, offer the most solid sense yet that a cultural turnaround is not only possible but actually underway at Canada’s largest transit authority.

We live, while we see the sun,
Where life and dreams are as one;
And living has taught me this,
Man dreams the life that is his,
Until his living is done.
The king dreams he is king, and he lives
In the deceit of a king,
Commanding and governing;
And all the praise he receives
Is written in wind, and leaves
A little dust on the way
When death ends all with a breath.
Where then is the gain of the throne,
That shall perish and not be known
In the other dream that is death?
Dreams the rich man of riches and fears,
The fears that his riches breed;
The poor man dreams of his need,
And all his sorrows and tears;
Dreams he that prospers with years,
Dreams he that feigns and foregoes,
Dreams he that rails on his foes;
And in all the world, I see,
Man dreams whatever he be,
And his own dream no man knows.
And I too dream and behold,
I dream I am bound with chains,
And I dreamed that these present pains
Were fortunate ways of old

Marty Allen (born Morton David Alpern March 23, 1922 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) is an American stand-up comedian and actor. He has worked as a comedy headliner in night clubs and as a dramatic actor in TV roles. Allen was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the son of Louis and Elsie Alpern. After graduating from Taylor Allderdice High School during World War II, he joined the Air Corps. He was stationed in Italy where he attained the rank of sergeant and earned a Soldier's Medal for his bravery during a fire which happened while a plane

He was still doing a comedy act in small clubs, but to supplement his GI Bill allotment, he became the first door-to-door dance salesman for a while. Eventually, the night club act became lucrative enough to cause him to leave college. During the 1950s, Allen worked as an opening act for stars such as Sarah Vaughan, Eydie Gorme, and Nat King Cole.

Money flow is a measure of the dollar volume of trades on upticks minus the dollar volume of trades on downticks. The result shows the amount of funds flowing in and out of the market. Please note that these are raw money flow figures, not ones adjusted with respect to market volume or compared with a moving average period.

THE 29th edition of the Africa Cup of Nations kicks off tomorrow in South Africa with focus on the Chipolopolo, who are aiming to defend the trophy won during the 2012 AFCON finals in Libreville, Gabon.
What a great victory it was over Ivory Coast as Zambia won her first AFCON title but the squad now faces the challenge of defending the cup against 15 other countries seeking to dethrone the Chipolopolo as African Kings.
As Republican President Michael Sata put it in his goodwill message to the team, the Chipolopolo should aim at conquering the continent again and bring back the trophy home.
In exactly three days, the African champions get down to business against Ethiopia as all eyes will be on the Chipolopolo, who will be aiming to emulate fallen Egypt in defending the AFCON title.
Confident fans and the doubting 'Thom

ases' will be either at Mbombela Stadium or in front of their television screens cheering.
Cheering their lungs out for the Chipolopolo to do the nation proud and will obviously heed President Sata's advice of maximising their unlimited potential, just as they showed during the 2012 AFCON in Equatorial Guinea and Gabon, and target the continent's top football accolade again.

Toulouse, France – Sorry if this blog has typos. My hands are still trembling from nearly wiping out the entire peloton Friday.
I had nothing to do with it. The culprit was one Matt White, the driver of Team Garmin-Chipotle’s lead car. I earned the gift of riding in the passenger’s seat.

The Colorado Department of Transportation announced Friday it plans to realign U.S. Highway 550 across a private ranch and connect it to U.S. Highway 160 by a $47 million interchange that includes the so-called “Bridge to Nowhere.”
It is the same decision CDOT reached in 2006 before the agency hit snags in trying to cross the Webb property. Since then, CDOT has undergone an entirely new analysis that takes into account a gas well and the ranch

’s historic designation that were not previously considered.
“We’ve done everything everybody has asked us to do,” said Steve Parker, CDOT commissioner for District 8. “We’ve studied the alternatives that the other folks suggested and didn’t find any reason to go forward with those. We think we’re good to go, and we’re eagerly awaiting the record of decision to come down, hopefully this fall.”
The record of decision is the final blessing from federal authorities.
The proposed 1½-mile realignment would cost an estimated $78 million. It would upgrade the highway from two lanes to four lanes and route it

New Year's Resolutions: Another Kind of Diet
- Thursday, December 30, 2004
Is there anything we haven't eaten in the past week? Ham, tamales, potatoes, chocolate, brandy, wine... and...
On the way to eating, there is tasting, munching, nibbling and sipping. Whatever you call it, the food goes in... and settles in for a long winter's nap... right around the waist.
One week later, stuffed to the gills, we must face the truth. A diet is in order. The belt is tight, and we are too bottom-heavy to lift out of the recliner. Eating may be natural, but it certainly has its limits.
Guided by New Year's resolutions, millions of Americans begin to set boundaries on what we put in our mouth. We post calorie counts on the refrigerator door, we empty the kitchen of temptation and we carry boxed chocolates to the office.
Indulging at the banquet table comes at a cost. Anyone laboring to shed a few "holiday

pounds" knows the painful and difficult process of "paying for our pleasure." Food is only one item on a long list of indulgences... each with a cost.
