Background to Netting-off for Speed Camera Funding

  Enforcement cameras were first introduced into the UK in 1991. A number of research studies have proved that they are an extremely effective measure for reducing road casualties. A cost-benefit analysis in 1996 (Hooke et al 1996) showed that cameras paid for themselves five times in the first year of operation alone, once the full benefits to society are considered—including to the Health Service.

  There is an established relationship between reducing speed and reducing collisions: research by TRL (Finch et al 1994) showed that just a one mph reduction in speed reduces collisions by 5 per cent. This figure has now been validated in a more recent study in 2000 also by TRL (Taylor et al 2000).

  In December 1998, the then DETR, Home Office and HM Treasury agreed that fixed penalty fine income from speed and red light cameras, collectively referred to as "Safety Cameras", could be used to fund additional camera enforcement—a recommendation for the original 1996 report. This process was termed hypothecation, although "netting off" is a more technically correct term that is now always used.

  Because of the complexity of the arrangements and relationships that were needed to make netting-off work, it was decided to pilot the approach in a number of areas. The pilots aimed to demonstrate how best to develop a workable relationship between local partnerships comprising local police forces, highways authorities, magistrates' courts and, where appropriate, the Highways Agency. It was also necessary to ensure robust linkages with the many central government departments involved.

  In 1999 thirteen areas submitted bids to pilot the scheme and eight were selected reflecting a balance of geographies, casualty problems and also different approaches to enfocement. The areas chosen were Cleveland, Essex, Lincolnshire, Nottingham, Northamptonshire, South Wales, Strathclyde and Thames Valley.

  These pilots went live in April 2000 and have been monitored against a number of criteria. The main criteria are:

    —  Speed and casualty—can the partnerships demonstrate an effect on speed and casualties in camera locations?

    —  Public acceptance—does the public acknowledge that the primary reason for speed and red-light cameras is road safety?

—  Financial aspects—have the financial arrangements worked without distorting operational priorities?

  Following the success of the eight pilot schemes the Government decided to extend the scheme Nationally, starting in England and Wales, and this was announced in August 2001. The rules for National roll-out are based on those used for the eight pilots with some changes based on experience, and a new requirement to make the cameras more visible and conspicuous to drivers. To date seven new partnerships have been accepted into the scheme and are currently coming on line. These are: Cambridgeshire, Derbyshire, Lancashire, Norfolk, North Wales, Staffordshire and Warwickshire. Roll-out arrangements for Scotland differ from those in England and Wales due to the separate legal and administrative rules affecting Scotland, and roll-out is expected to follow during 2002.

  The executive summary of the first year report of the pilot schemes (Gains et al 2001) is available from the DTLR website under road safety.

The Rules

  It was important when setting up the systems for "netting off" that arrangements were put in place to prevent potential abuse or distortion of priorities. Detailed rules about participating in the scheme were developed for the pilots and these have been adhered to throughout. Based on the experience of the pilots they have been enhanced, including new requirements about the visibility and conspicuity of safety cameras and signing.

  In summary, the rules for roll-out are as follows:

    —  Partnerships should be made up of the local highway authorities, the courts and the police, and in future include the local Health Authority. In some cases the Highways Agency and Crown Prosecution Service may be a member.

    —  Only costs relating to speed and red-light camera enforcement are considered to be allowable expenditure—the rules are set out in a handbook issued to partnerships that details what is considered to be allowable expenditure.

    —  No organisation is allowed to make a "profit" out of the scheme. Any surplus of fine income over costs incurred must be returned to the Treasury.

    —  All cameras should be located in casualty hot spots with a history of speed-related collisions.

    —  Speed surveys should be conducted prior to camera operation to prove that speeding is a problem at each site.

    —  At the end of the year partnerships are subject to a full audit by the district auditor. This will examine how the money has been spent. Failure to receive a clean audit certificate could result in removal of the privilege to retain the funds.

    —  Cameras shall be visible and conspicuous to drivers, with fixed site housings coloured yellow in most circumstances and mobile enforcement sites required to use marked vehicles and operatives wearing high visibility clothing.

    —  Signs warning of the presence of fixed and mobile cameras shall be placed within one kilometre of fixed sites and at the start of a targeted route for mobile enforcement operations.

Project management—The Project Board

  It was decided before embarking on the netting-off pilot programme that the wide range of governmental and institutional interests involved in speed and red-light camera enforcement must participate in the decision making processes. Because the primary objective was to improve road safety and reduce casualties the project management lead would be with DTRL (was DETR initially). A Safety Camera Project Board was established early in 1999, chaired and serviced by DTLR, and continues to oversee the project. Officials from the following organisations are members of the Project Board: DTLR, The Highways Agency, Lord Chancellor's Department, HM Treasury, the Home Office, the Crown Prosecution Service, Scottish Executive, National Assembly for Wales ACPO and local authority representation by the CSS and LGA.

  To assist itself and the Project Board, DTLR appointed PA Consulting Group as project managers to manage the day to day running of the project, to provide professional advice and to advise the Project Board about progress and performance of the pilots areas, and the new areas now joining the scheme. New partnership areas are coming on line with the decision by ministers to roll-out the scheme Nationally from August 2001, and they are also subject to the performance monitoring and auditing.

Dorothy P. Moore, Author Intercultural Press $28.95 (237p) ISBN 978-0-89106-144-1
Many of the more than nine million women business owners today have succeeded, according to Moore, because they learned how to manage their careers early, even before they started their own businesses. Using examples of businesses that have received national acclaim from the media and other organizations (such as the A.D. Morgan construction company, Advanced Tissues Sciences and Suzy's Zoo greeting cards), Moore reveals that these women have rarely stayed in one linear career path within a corporation, and that they are often closet inventors and risk takers. An entrepreneur professor at the Citadel, Moore provides a self-assessment quiz that allows would-be business owners to evaluate themselves on the same terms to see whether or not they're ready to start their own companies. She explains how entrepreneurs need to maximize their skills, particularly in managing people and negotiating, offering helpful negotiating strategies and a checklist of objectives. A key step in the negotiating process, according to Moore, is to see the situation from the other person's point of view after establishing one's own position. While her book offers a compelling look at the personalities of entrepreneurs, the book includes a haphazard mix of anecdotes and analysis that make it less helpful for readers looking for hands-on practical advice.

MSI GTX 760 Gaming MINI-ITX Review

Posted May 6, 2014 by Sandy Bruce in Video Cards

Release Date: Now
Specifications: See review
Price at time of Review: $249.00

Very Capable, Quiet, 4k compatible, Matches Gaming AC and other boards well. Quality

Price comparison. Potential issues with heat
More then anything else this GPU offers you options. After looking at everything the MSI GTX 760 Gaming Mini-ITX has to offer in this seldom noticed segment I come away with ideas... ideas on how I could best take advantage of what this small but powerful package has to offer.
by Sandy Bruce
Full Article

We recently had the opportunity to have some hands on time with the feature packed MSI Z87i Gaming AC board. It had a small size but a large feature set and gaming potential. Today we wanted to look at the partner tech for the Z87i Gaming AC. That is the GTX 760 OC Gaming ITX GPU. We have seen the GTX 760 from various manufacturers with different cooling solutions but MSI claims to have made one which will fit perfectly inside a cramped HTPC or LAN PC case. This will leave the MSI GTX 760 Gaming Mini-ITX in a tight space to battle temps and fan noise, all while keeping FPS up. That is a tall order for any GPU, so lets not waste anymore time, and jump right into the review.

Thanks go to MSI for providing this sample for review, and also for the use of the Bitfenix Colossus mini ITX and MSI Z87i Gaming AC mini ITX board reviews.

gtx 760 stock

Specs and Introduction.

We are not going to spend much time talking about the inner workers of the GTX 760. It has been out in the wild long enough that it has been covered quite a bit. The GTX 760 cores are based on the same 28nm GK104 technology we saw in the GTX 680 with a few of the sections disabled. When all is said and done, the GTX 760 ships with 1152 Cuda cores, 96 Texture units and 32 ROPS on a 256bit bus. As this is an OC version, the core clocks have been kicked up to 1033MHz (1098MHz boost) in OC mode. This is up from the Reference clock of 980MHz and the 2GB memory at 6008MHz. There are some other speed options the GTX 760 Mini-ITX Gaming can run, but we will cover those later in the review. Over-all the GTX 760 is a replacement for the GTX 670.

  • Graphics Engine NVIDIA GeForce GTX 760
  • Bus Standard PCI Express x16 3.0
  • Memory Type GDDR5
  • Memory Size(MB) 2048
  • Memory Interface 256 bits
  • Core Clock Speed(MHz) 1085 (Boost Clock: 1150) (OC mode)
    1020 (Boost Clock: 1085) (Gaming mode)
    980 (Boost Clock: 1033) (Silent mode)
  • Memory Clock Speed(MHz) 6008
  • DVI Output 2 (Dual-link DVI-I x 1, Dual-link DVI-D x 1)
  • HDMI-Output 1 (version 1.4a)
  • DisplayPort 1 (version 1.2)
  • HDMI Support Y
  • Dual-link DVI Y
  • Display Output (Max Resolution) 2560×1600
  • DirectX Version Support 11.1 API (feature level 11_0)
  • OpenGL Version Support 4.3
  • SLI Support Y, 3-ways
  • Card Dimension(mm) 260x126x38 mm

You may have noticed that the factory OC speed is a bit lower than a standard GTX 760. The highest speed configuration for the Gaming Mini-ITX “OC” is what was the slowest “Silent” mode for standard GTX 760 OC 2GB from MSI. This is to be expected when you have basically cut the card size in half and plan for it to be installed in smaller spaces. Since we know the cores can handle higher speeds, the potential remains for a solid OC to match its bigger sibling.

Raw Social Media Score Rises, WWE Ice Cream Bars Coming To WWE ’13 & New Screen Shots

Published On 08/07/2012 | By PWMania.com Staff | News

– This week’s episode of Monday night Raw was up 54% in social media activity compared to last week’s post-1,000 hangover show as WWE tries to find a baseline during the three-hour era.

Raw scored 401,202 on Monday, up from 259,203 last week, but down from a record 907,443 two weeks ago. Raw ranked #4 on cable TV Monday night, trailing Olympics coverage on NBC Universal and “Love & Hip Hop Atlanta” on VH1.

– THQ sent in the following on Tuesday:

While supplies last, those who pre-order WWE ’13 at GameStop in the US can get an exclusive in-game CM Punk ice cream bar t-shirt, while in Canada, it comes with all pre-orders placed at EB Games.

The t-shirt pays homage to nearly two decades of WWE’s popular dessert manufactured by Good Humor—ice cream bars that featured imprints of several WWE Superstars. Available for purchase in the 80s and 90s, the ice cream bar returned to popularity in 2011 as part of CM Punk’s on-air revolution, which players can now relive again through a digital version.

Rosella Leslie
Sergei Galipova, a Russian immigrant and a BC rancher, owes his life to the Countess Catherine Stanislavovna Federov. When the Countess asks Sergei to send his daughter, Alice, to help her set up a private hospital in St. Petersburg, Alice adamantly refuses. But when her father threatens to disown her, she reluctantly agrees to help the Countess for six months.
In a small town in the Carpathian Mountains, eleven-year-old Natalya Tcychowski, the youngest daughter of a Hutsul family, is coping with a crisis of her own. Having run afoul of the local bailiff, her eighteen-year-old brother, Oleksi, is forced to flee from their home village of Zgardy, which is under the control of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. When he arrives in St. Petersburg, Oleksi seeks the help of the Countess Federov, who owes his father a debt of gratitude for saving her life twenty-two years earlier.
The outbreak of war in 1914 puts both Natalya's and Alice's lives on a path they could not have foreseen and cannot avoid. Three years later Alice is still trapped in Russia and her  position as a Canadian in Petrograd is becoming increasingly perilous.  Natalya's family is torn apart by their loyalty to the Tsar and countess. As Russia is sent into upheaval by the revolutions of 1917, both Natalya and Alice fight for their lives in a country that is rapidly unraveling.

Emma Phillips is a 35-year-old divorcee with an undemanding job, a rustic old house, and a friend who provides all the benefits she needs. She's comfortable, complacent, and accustomed to getting her own way-until she is shipwrecked during a violent storm in the Queen Charlotte Strait and forced to assume temporary guardianship of three traumatized, newly orphaned children.
From the author of The Goat Lady's Daughter comes this moving new story, set against the rugged backdrop of coastal British Columbia, of a woman determined to manage her own destiny and a child whose own strong nature defies those who would take control of her fate.

Rosella Leslie knows intimately these west coast waters. And she fathoms as well the hearts of the motley crew of characters she tosses into the storm. Drift Child has all the elements of good mystery, the depth of good drama, and the smooth writing that makes for a satisfying read.  Betty Jane Hegerat, author of Delivery and Running for Home.

Take one aimless 35-year-old paralegal. Combine with three young orphans and a gang of eccentric villagers. Mix vigorously with a horrendous storm and an accident at sea. Let season in an authentic north Vancouver Island setting. The result is Drift Child, a rollicking, heartfelt page-turner that will leave you wanting more. Andrew Scott, author of The Promise of Paradise and Secret Coastline.

Though years and years of shoddy logging and farming practices near streams, mine tailings leaking into rivers, untreated human waste being pumped into the ocean, and the damming of salmon-bearing waters have imperilled Pacific salmon stocks, it is the most recent menace-salmon farms-that will finally destroy the last of these remarkable animals unless drastic measures are taken--and soon. A Stain Upon the Sea, which contains a condensed and updated version of Sea Silver: Inside British Columbia's Salmon Farming Industry (1996) by Rosella M. Leslie and Betty C. Keller, synthesizes the various threads of danger posed by salmon farming to wild fish, the threat posed by the Atlantic salmon which are being cultivated in west coast fish farms, and the lethal infestations of sea lice originating on salmon farms. Leslie and Keller chronicle the haphazard growth of the industry, the contradictions in DFO and MAFF regulations, the unwillingness of government to investigate or police the industry, and its control by foreign multinational companies.

Winner of the Roderick Haig-Brown Prize given annually for the book which "merits distinction as the work contributing most to an appreciation of British Columbia."
Finalist for the Second Annual George Ryga Award for Social Awareness.

Currently, the corporate-government collusion prioritizes the profiteering of salmon-farming operations with minimal regard for the environment, wild creatures, First Nations and the health of workers and consumers while staunchly refusing cost-incurring alternatives. In western society, citizens caught stealing from corporations are severely punished, but when corporations steal the right of citizens to a clean environment and healthful food, they are too often unpunished and seldom penalized harshly. As A Stain Upon the Sea illustrates, this is a scenario that must be changed-the continued existence of wild Pacific salmon may depend upon it.

co-authored with Betty Keller (Horsdal & Schubart, Spring 1996), is a detailed history of salmon farming in British Columbia. Taking a middle-of-the-road approach to the concerns of both salmon farmers and environmentalists, the book explores issues such as disease transference to wild stock, interbreeding of escaped Atlantic salmon with native Pacific salmon, and the costly impact on the industry and environment of establishing too many farms in one area.

Sorry, Out of Print

 is a novel about two eccentric sisters in their early fifties who find themselves adopting a baby girl. Mag, the crusty, conniving older sister and the breadwinner of the family, sees the child as a burden, but Florrie, the more motherly of the two, welcomes baby Jen with open arms. As the sisters struggle to make a living from their remote inlet farm, Jen worms her way into their hearts. When the child starts school, she is suddenly faced with juggling her wilderness existence with the social demands of a life in town. This cobbled-together family is drawn closer together as they grapple with the rigours of living off the land and battle an unscrupulous logger and developer named Pete Saari. They are helped by Sylvia Lower, an amateur archaeologist whose ideas on parenting clash with Mag's, and by Billy Thom, who runs a salvage boat called the Squawk Box. Then suddenly the family's bonds are threatened by a tragedy that nearly overwhelms them.

"The climax of this story is a marvel of shrewd narrative structure and emotional restraint. Rosella Leslie keeps her pathos on a tight leash. The more she holds back, the more power she gives readers to loose their own knowledge of loss. You'll need a hankie." Jim Bartley, The Globe and Mail, Oct 21, 2006

An "affecting, gentle novel." Nov 24/06

"[The Goat lady's Daughter] has a page-turning quality that is difficult to resist." Joe Wiebe, The Vancouver Sun, January 6, 2007

"Rosella Leslie's take on the classic rescued-orphan story steers clear of sentimentality and easy moralism. Instead, Leslie confirms for readers that a classic plot can still offer what Anne Shirley herself might call, "scope for the imagination." Edwards Magazine, January 2007

"Intriguing characters are the stronghold of Rosella Leslie's first novel, The Goat Lady's Daughter. With an intentionally basic storyline, Leslie has managed to vividly communicate complex and riveting characters that you will think about long after you've read the novel. Too often, first-time authors become entangled and too ambitious with their plotlines and high impact twists and turns. Few ever succeed in making such a solid character portrait as Leslie does in The Goat Lady's Daughter. Kindah Mardam Bey, Lucid Forge, 2007.

"In this extraordinary novel, Rosella Leslie envisions one of the most ramshackle yet thoroughly engaging families we're likely to see in Canadian fiction this year. With The Goat Lady's Daughter, she proves, in the style of Barbara Kingsolver, that our true families aren't always our relatives but are often those people we get stuck with and choose to keep." Kimmy Beach, author of fake Paul. (Turnstone Press)
Alberta-born Rosella Leslie's writing career began in 1980 after she moved to a small float house on an inlet 25 miles north of Sechelt. There she could develop her craft without being disturbed. Since then she has participated in on-going tutorials with Betty Keller and has attended writing workshops with Ian Slater and Daniel Wood. Her feature articles and short fiction have appeared in Western People Magazine Fiction, The Leader, Alive Canadian Journal of Health and Nutrition, and Coast News Weekender. Her published books include The Federov Legacy, Drift Child, The Goat Lady's Daughter, The Sunshine Coast: A Place to Be, two histories co-authored with Betty Keller-Bright Seas, Pioneer Spirits: The Sunshine Coast, and Sea Silver: Inside British Columbia's Salmon-Farming Industry, which was condensed and included in the award-winning book, Stain Upon the Sea Silver: Inside British Columbia's Salmon Farming Industry.
A founding member of the Sunshine Coast Festival of the Written Arts and the Suncoast Writers Forge, Rosella served as a director, program writer, and house co-ordinator. In 1990 she and her husband moved to Sechelt. Four years later she retired from the Festival to devote more time to her son's school, participating in Parent Advisory Councils, serving as a director of the Chatelech-Sechelt Community School Society, initiating a district-wide Breakfast for Kids program and working with C-PAS to organize an annual parent conference. In 2002 she was awarded the BCCPAC's George Matthews Award for Excellence in Parent Leadership.
Rosella's Books
Every town has its celebrities, but Sechelt's own unique and larger than life personality was wholesome enough to satisfy all of North America's appetite for eccentrics. Asta Bergliot Solberg, or Bergie, as her friends knew her, lived life on her own terms. She climbed wild mountain trails to hunt for goats, demanded car rides from unsuspecting locals, spent a night in the woods wrapped in the skin of a bear she'd shot and thought nothing of rowing twenty-five miles down a dark, windy inlet. With equal ferocity she wrangled cougars, conservation officers and the police, who had the temerity to tackle her for packing a rifle in town.
In this much-anticipated memoir, Rosella Leslie pieces together Bergie's life story through a collection of interviews, local stories and personal anecdotes.  The Cougar Lady: Legendary Trapper of Sechelt Inlet follows Bergie's life journey, one lived with ferocity and insurmountable fearlessness.  Asta Bergliot Solberg is a true icon of the Sunshine Coast, embodying the irreplaceable and unmistakable vibrancy of Sechelt itself.

Featured Road to Le Mans 2016: The Non-WEC Drivers

Discussion in 'World Endurance Championship' started by Jack Hunsley, Jun 16, 2016.

    Understandably many viewers find it hard to get to grips with the 'who's who' of the regular WEC. So when the 24 Hours of Le Mans decides to roll around and throw a spanner in the works by adding another 26 cars to the WEC's lineup, it very easy to quickly become daunted by the prospect of remembering who's driving what. So here's a quick run through of the non-WEC entrants to the 84th 24 Heures du Mans:

    SO24! by Lombard Racing

    Car Number - #22
    Drivers - Vincent Capillaire, Erik Maris, Jonathan Coleman
    Main Series - ELMS, 6th In Class

    Category - LMP2
    Debrief - A newcomer to the ELMS for 2016 SO24 have performed pretty well considering. However they've struggled at Le Mans so far this weekend so shouldn't be troubling the category leaders, they'll just be hoping to make the finish.

    Panis-Barthez Competition

    Car Number - #23
    Drivers - Fabien Barthez, Paul-Loup Chatin, Timothé Buret
    Main Series - ELMS, 10th

    Category - LMP2
    Debrief - Yes. This is the same Fabien Barthez who made his name for Manchester United and France as a goalkeeper. Since giving up the 'beautiful' game in 2007 he's made a name for himself in motorsport and has raced at Le Mans since 2014 with a best finish of 9th last year. With his and Olivier Panis' team 10th in the ELMS, they'll be hoping Le Mans can give them momentum going into the remainder of the season.

    Algarve Pro Racing

    Car Number - #25
    Drivers - Michael Munemann, Andrea Pizzitola, Chris Hoy
    Main Series - ELMS, 14th
    Category - LMP2
    Debrief - Another famous name gracing the Le Mans circuit is Britain's (well technically Scotland's but shush don't tell anyone) Chris Hoy. Since giving up competitive cycling in 2013 he's raced in the British GT Championship and now the ELMS where he won the LMP3 title in 2015. The switch to LMP2 has been harder though with only a single 10th placed finish to the team's name.

    Pegasus Racing

    Car Number - #28
    Drivers - Inès Taittinger, Léo Striebig, Rémy Roussel
    Main Series - ELMS, 15th
    Category - LMP2
    Debrief - The ELMS' current back marker, Pegasus Racing are in desperate need of a good result at Le Mans to save their season. The German/French outfit currently have just half a point to their name after two ELMS rounds which in all fairness is a rather impressive achievement. They do have the quirk of being one of the few teams running a female driver in Taittinger, but that's about all that can be said about the team.

    Eurasia Motorsport
    Car Number - #33
    Drivers - Pu Jun Jin, Tristan Gommendy, Nick de Bruijn
    Main Series - ELMS, 8th

    Category - LMP2
    Debrief - With team's competing across the Eurasia are a team who understand endurance racing well. Whilst that hasn't come to fruition in the ELMS this year so far, a 5th place at Imola is rather offset by a retirement at Silverstone. They could well spring a surprise at Le Mans

    Race Performance

    Car Number - #34
    Drivers - Nicolas Leutwiler, Shinji Nakano, James Winslow
    Main Series - ELMS, 9th

    Category - LMP2
    Debrief - With a former F1 driver and an endurance specialist in their ranks it's somewhat irking that Race Performance haven't performed better in 2016. Nakano made his name with Prost and Minardi in the late 1990's in F1, scoring two points at Montreal and the Hungaroring, whilst Winslow has competed in the ALMS and Le Mans prior with Greaves.

    G-Drive Racing

    Car Number - #38
    Drivers - Simon Dolan, Jake Dennis, Giedo Van Der Garde
    Main Series - ELMS, 1st

    Category - LMP2
    Debrief - The first of the true non-WEC contenders for the class victory on Sunday. G-Drive, the sister team of the WEC outfit, has performed admirably so far in 2016. Also with Simon Dolan of Jota Sport fame, former F1 driver and Sauber critic Giedo Van Der Garde alongside GP3 regular Jake Dennis, they arguably have the strongest driver lineup in the category. Expect big things.

    Krohn Racing

    Car Number - #40
    Drivers - Tracy Krohn, Niclas Jönsson, João Barbosa
    Main Series - ELMS, 4th

    Category - LMP2
    Debrief - As America's sole representative across the pond in the ELMS Krohn have a lot riding on them. Whilst they are joined by fellow tea party spoilers Mike Shank Racing, Krohn are the only American team who regular compete in the ELMS who will make the jump to Le Mans. Consistency has been the key so far this year, with their 4th place overall courtesy of a 4th and 6th place finishes at Silverstone and Imola, they'll be hoping to go one better at Le Mans

    Greaves Motorsport

    Car Number - #41
    Drivers - Memo Rojas, Julien Canal, Nathenaël Berthon
    Main Series - ELMS, 11th

    Category - LMP2
    Debrief - A Le Mans regular since 2007, Greaves Motorsport know Le Mans incredibly well. A race victor back in 2011 and having had the pleasure of actually leading the race overall in 2014, they have a reputation for springing a surprise. They could well be one to look out for come race day.

    Thiriet by TDS Racing

    Car Number -
    Drivers - Pierre Thiriet, Mathias Beche, Ryo Hirakawa
    Main Series - ELMS, 3rd
    Category - LMP2
    Debrief -
    Thiriet 3rd place overall is somewhat misleading. They won last time out at Imola, whilst a retirement at Silverstone after starting from pole has limited their potential. Make no mistake about it, Thiriet are dangerous.

    Murphy Prototypes

    Car Number -
    Drivers -Ben Keating, Jeroen Bleekemolen, Marc Goosens
    Main Series - ELMS, 13th
    Category - LMP2
    Debrief -
    Ireland's answer to the 24 Hours of Le Mans returns. A regular since 2012 the Irish haven't had the best of luck with their current DNF, 6th, DNF, 5th record leading me to predict another DNF this year if they have any passion for consistency. An all new driver lineup for this years race will also cause teething problems, however with Bleekemolen's Blancpain experience and Goosen's 12 previous 24 Hours of Le Mans under their respective belts should give them a better chance this year.

    Michael Shank Racing

    Car Number -
    Drivers - John Pew, Oswaldo Negri Jr., Laurens Vanthoor
    Main Series - IMSA, 6th
    Category - LMP2
    Debrief -
    Finally, the only non-ELMS LMP2 entry. Based off Wednesday's Free Practice results Mike Shank seem to sit in the middle of the LMP2 pack, which is very respectable for a team who's never been to Le Mans before. Back in the land of Uncle Sam they've had a victory at Laguna Seca already this year with Pew and Negri Jr. at the wheel. Now with the very welcome addition of Laurens Vanthoor they could be in for a good result.

    Corvette Racing

    Car Number -
    #63 & #64
    Drivers - Jan Magnussen, Antonio Garcia, Ricky Taylor & Oliver Gavin, Tommy Milner, Jordan Taylor
    Main Series - IMSA, 7th & 1st
    Category - GTE Pro
    Debrief -
    What more is there to say about Corvette. With 8 class victories since 2001 they have emerged as the Audi of the GT classes. Whilst the Gavin, Milner, Taylor entry heads the IMSA GT Le Mans class they have struggled for pace compared to the Ford's at Le Mans so far in 2016. But considering their historic good form here don't be surprised if one of the two cars are in the running come the checkered flag.

    Ford Chip Ganassi Team USA

    Car Number -
    #68 & #69
    Drivers - Joey Hand, Dirk Müller, Sebastian Bourdais & Ryan Briscoe, Richard Westbrook, Scott Dixon
    Main Series - IMSA, 9th & 3rd
    Category - GTE Pro
    Debrief -
    Arguably the best GT lineup is found with Ford UK's American brothers. With talent from all over the globe, not many other teams can boast having an CART and an Indy Car legend within their ranks. The Ford GT is also working VERY well at Le Mans so far with an almost frightening top speed. No doubt these two cars will be eager to beat their own UK brother's.

    Risi Competizione (Image Courtesy of Risi Competizione)
    Car Number -
    Drivers - Giancarlo Fisichella, Tony Vilander, Matteo Malucelli
    Main Series - IMSA, 5th
    Category - GTE Pro
    Debrief -
    Another Le Mans regular, Risi Competizione have been coming to Le Mans since 2007, and with former Ferrari F1 driver Giancarlo Fisichella alongside former AF Corse regular Tony Vilander, they should be in good stand come the race. A best finish of 3rd is what they have to show for their IMSA season, they should do well at Le Mans.

    Porsche Motorsport

    Car Number -
    #91 & #92
    Drivers - Patrick Pilet, Kévin Estre, Nick Tandy & Frédéric Makowiecki, Jörg Bergmiester, Earl Bamber
    Main Series - N/A
    Category - GTE Pro
    Debrief -
    A slightly odd one here. Technically this team doesn't compete in any championship after Porsche's decision to take a sabbatical year for their GT program in the WEC. They make their return for Le Mans however, and with two very experienced lineups they will be strong.

    AF Corse

    Car Number -
    Drivers - Duncan Cameron, Matt Griffin, Aaron Scott
    Main Series - ELMS, 4th
    Category - GTE Am
    Debrief -
    Another consistent finisher in the ELMS arrives at Le Mans. Whilst very easily confused with the regular WEC AF Corse these guys have made their name in WEC's baby brother. After finishing 3rd overall in the ELMS last year the #55 will be looking to make amends for their DNF at Le Mans last year.

    Team AAI

    Car Number -
    Drivers - Johnny O'Connell, Mark Paterson, Oliver Bryant
    Main Series - ALMS, N/A
    Category - GTE Am
    Debrief -
    Again. An odd on. At Le Mans courtesy of their exploits in the Asian Le Mans Series Team AAI have the rather unfortunate claim to fame of being the last placed finisher at Le Mans in 2015, although still beat both Nissan LMP1's despite completing fewer laps. They've also got some good experience behind the wheel of their Corvette. O'Connell has raced and finished at Le Mans three times whilst Paterson is a four time class winner, and has finished on the podium an impressive nine times out of his fifteenth appearances, mainly as a Corvette factory driver. They could yet spring a surprise.

    Formula Racing

    Car Number - #60
    Drivers - Johnny Laursen, Mikkel Mac, Christina Nielsen
    Main Series - ELMS, 9th
    Category - GTE Am
    Debrief -
    The all-Danish Formula Racing Team have a good reputation. With the daughter of former Le Mans racer Lars-Erik Nielsen, and a young ELMS protege in the form of Mikkel Mac, they stand in good steed coming into Le Mans. Whilst things haven't quite go their way in the ELMS in 2016, Le Mans should bring better results.

    Clearwater Racing

    Car Number -
    Drivers - Weng Sun Mok, Keita Sawa, Rob Bell
    Main Series - ALMS, N/A
    Category - GTE Am
    Debrief -
    Another ALMS entrant, Clearwater Racing took the title in Asia last season with a McLaren 650S, with two victories and a third placed finished at the Sepang finale. Meanwhile, Rob Bell has raced at Le Mans since 2007 (excluding 2014), and was briefly part of Aston Martin's factory team. Fingers crossed they can quickly get to grips with their Ferrari 458 and give the ALMS someone to cheer for.

    Scuderia Corsa

    Car Number -
    Drivers - Bill Sweedler, Townsend Bell, Jeff Segal
    Main Series - IMSA, 4th
    Category - GTE Am
    Debrief -
    You guessed it, another odd one. Whilst technically another IMSA entrant, and the only one in GTE Am, their lineup is so vastly different from their regular IMSA team you could argue they're not even related. With their regular drivers of Nielsen and Rojas already taken for Le Mans, only Jeff Segal makes the jump straight from America. He's joined by Sweedler and Bell again for Le Mans, with the trio racing to third last year in the class. Here's hoping they can replicate a similar result this time out.

    Proton Competition

    Car Number -
    Drivers - Cooper MacNeil, Leh Keen, Marc Miller
    Main Series - ELMS, 5th
    Category - GTE Am
    Debrief -
    If Scuderia Corsa had trouble retaining their usual lineup then their problems pale in comparison to Proton Competition. Whilst they come to Le Mans from the ELMS none of their regular drivers will arce for them. Instead, they've hired an American lineup to fight their cause. Cooper and Keen are both very experienced endurance racers, whilst Miller is almost far more than competent.

    Aston Martin Racing

    Car Number -
    Drivers - Andrew Howard, Liam Griffin, Gary Hirsch
    Main Series - ELMS, 1st
    Category - GTE Am
    Debrief -
    Last but not least is Aston Martin. The front runners in ELMS they come the Le Mans as the form team of GTE Am, at least of those invited to race. They should run well, given they've already won at Silverstone this season. But all remains to be seen.

Bertrand Denzler
& Norbert Pfammatter,
(Leo, 2000)

The name Nanocluster refers to the fact that this duo forms a part of larger band Cluster, but there's more to it than that. Where Cluster makes music which draws heavily on free jazz, this nanocluster is concerned with something much less dramatic: a jazz of tiny gestures in large, open spaces.

Both Bertrand Denzler and Norbert Pfammatter have conventional chops, but both leave them at the studio door for this session, focusing their powerful lenses on sonic detail instead. For most of the time, their playing is quiet and full of little holes. Some tracks can be off-puttingly minimal at first, such as the opener with its discursive enunciation of croaks punctuated by formless-seeming percussions.

One soon realises, however, that this is deeply serious music. Tenor saxman Denzler, although he sounds fragmentary, is terribly good at making logic out of his very clipped vocabulary. Drummer Pfammatter has been working with him long enough to understand where he's going and walk in step; there are some surprising sychronicities here which belie the apparent randomness at the surface. And Denzler is perfectly prepared to make plain the melodic line which lies under the surface of eveything he plays here, as he does towards the end of track 6 with a high, off-pitch wail which squeezes out a song which has been waiting to get out for a while.

Pfammatter's percussion is similarly subterranean. Often exclamatory or gestural, sometimes sounding more like texture or punctuation than anything else, it in fact has a tendency to reference more conventional jazz drumming styles (think Ali or even Elvin Jones) as a touchstone, just obliquely but just openly enough to provide the listener, too, with an insight into his style. Once you've noticed it, there's a definite swing here, although certainly not one you could tap your foot to. It works perfectly with Denzler, and the two spark off each other without becoming unfocussed or indulgent.

Records like this inevitably take some getting into. This is very contemporary, unapologetically difficult free jazz which takes a very open set of ears to hear it. It does reward patience, however, this intelligent and stimulating converstion between two instrumentalists of impressive vision.

The River

By: Gary Paulsen

The River was a direct response to readers who sent letters telling me that Brian's story wasn't done at the end of Hatchet. So many wanted to know what happened to Brian after the rescue that I started wondering about him myself. What if Brian went back to the woods with the knowledge he'd gained, but this time were also responsible for the life of another person?
When I finished The River I thought I'd taken his story as far as it could go. And then the next batch of letters started showing up. Again readers wrote that there had to be more to the story, but this time, they told me Brian had been rescued in Hatchet too soon--before --it became really hard going." What would he have done, they wanted to know, if he had to survive on his own through the winter? Since my life has been one of survival in winter--running two Iditarods, hunting and trapping as a boy and young man--the challenge became interesting, and so I researched and wrote Brian's Winter, showing what could and perhaps would have happened had Brian not been rescued.
And in answer to still more thousands of letters I wrote this final fictional account of Brian, Brian's Return. Much of what Brian encounters in these stories--in fact nearly all of it--has happened to me. This last book perhaps shows Brian most completely, most truly: how he is changed mentally, how he deals with home life and finally, how he must return to the woods that make him whole. There will be one more book, a nonfiction book, about those areas of my life (being attacked by moose, bear and--shudder--skunks; hunting, fishing and living on game; making and using weapons and tools, etc.) that parallel Brian's life, to show how truly close Brian is to reality.
Thank you for reading my books and I hope you enjoy this continuing story of Brian.

In The River, Brian is asked to return to the woods to teach Derek, a government psychologist, survival techniques. But when Derek is struck by lightning, Brian's survival skills are further tested as he must find a way to get the seriously injured Derek out of the woods.
The following books are also discussed in this guide:
Brian's Return
Brian's Winter

Born in Minneapolis, Minnesota, Gary Paulsen is one of America's most popular writers for young people. Although he was never a dedicated student, Paulsen developed a passion for reading at an early age. After a librarian gave him a book to read--along with his own library card--he was hooked. He began spending hours alone in the basement of his apartment building, reading one book after another.
Running away from home at the age of fourteen and traveling with a carnival, Gary Paulsen acquired a taste for adventure. A youthful summer of rigorous chores on a farm; jobs as an engineer, construction worker, ranch hand, truck driver, and sailor; and two rounds of the 1,180-mile Alaskan dogsled race, the Iditarod, have provided ample material from which he creates powerful stories.
Paulsen's realization that he would ultimately be a writer happened suddenly when he was working as a satellite technician for an aerospace firm in California. One night he walked off the job, never to return. He spent the next year in Hollywood as a magazine proofreader, working on his own writing every night. Then he left California and drove to northern Minnesota where he rented a cabin by the lake; by the end of the winter, he had completed his first novel.
It is Gary Paulsen's overwhelming belief in young people that drives him to write. His intense desire to tap deeply into the human spirit and to encourage readers to observe and care about the world around them has brought him both enormous popularity with young people and critical acclaim from the children's book community. Paulsen has written nearly one hundred books and some two hundred articles and short stories for children and adults. He is one of the most respected writers of young adult literature today. Three of his novels--Hatchet, Dogsong, and The Winter Room--were named Newbery Honor Books.
In Soldier's Heart, 15-year-old Charley Goddard enlists in the First Minnesota Volunteers in 1861. This gripping, heartwrenching story of war is seen through the young boy's eyes, as he fights in almost every major battle of the Civil War.
Brian's Return, the final companion novel to the Newbery Honor-winning Hatchet, and Paulsen's most recent novel, takes young readers on another exciting adventure to the north woods with Brian Robeson. As in Hatchet, The River, and Brian's Winter, Paulsen creates in Brian's Return a story that is ideal for integrating into the curriculum as well as for classroom read-aloud.
Gary Paulsen and his wife, Ruth Wright Paulsen, an artist who has illustrated several of his books, divide their time between a ranch in southern New Mexico and a home on a sailboat in the Pacific.

In the Classroom

Brian's Return, the final companion novel to the Newbery Honor-winning Hatchet, takes young readers on another exciting adventure to the north woods with Brian Robeson. As in Hatchet, The River, and Brian's Winter, Paulsen creates in Brian's Return a story that is ideal for integrating into the curriculum as well as for classroom read-aloud.
This guide includes a variety of activities for The River, Brian's Winter, and Brian's Return. The themes of survival, nature, making choices, and self-discovery can be explored in the classroom. Teachers may want to divide the class into smaller groups, each reading one of the books, to allow for more complete discussion of the activities included here.

We hope you find this guide useful in introducing your class to Gary Paulsen's two award-winning adventure tales.

Pre-Reading Activity

In Brian's Winter, The River, and Hatchet, Brian Robeson must survive in the northern woods. His most important resource is his own ingenuity. Divide the class into small groups and have them list items they think are necessary to include in a survival pack. Then challenge each group to decide which five items on their list are the most important. Ask each group to share and support their decision.

Ask students to discuss how surviving in the wilderness for a long period of time might change a person's life. Tell the class that in Brian's Return, Brian Robeson cannot adjust to ordinary life and feels that the only way he can be happy is to return to the wilderness. Divide the class into small groups and ask them to brainstorm the many reasons why it might be difficult for Brian to live the life of a typical high-school student.

Thematic Connections

Survival -- In The River, when lightning strikes Derek, Brian must find a way to get out of the woods and find medical help for the unconscious man. Ask students to discuss the difficult task of dealing with Derek after the accident. How does the accident further challenge Brian's survival skills?

Ask students to compare and contrast the skills Brian used to survive the summer months in Hatchet with those he uses to survive in Brian's Winter. How does his knowledge of summer survival contribute to his ability to make it through the brutal winter?

Brian takes some camping gear when he returns to the woods in Brian's Return. Ask students to refer to the list of equipment (Ch. 9) that he chooses to take with him. Then, have them select the items that they feel are absolutely necessary for his survival. How is his return trip different from his other long adventures in the wilderness?

Appreciation of Nature -- While Brian must depend on nature for food and clothing, he also develops a keen appreciation for the wilderness and has great respect for the animals that inhabit the woods. Find evidence throughout the novels that Brian is a careful hunter and understands the concept of wildlife conservation.

Though Brian suffers greatly from loneliness and works hard to survive, he has mixed feelings about leaving the northern woods when he is finally rescued. He feels that the woods have become part of him. Ask students to write a feature article for a wildlife magazine that Brian might have written, describing his relationship with nature.

How does Brian's understanding and appreciation of nature contribute to his need to leave home and return to the wilderness in Brian's Return?

Making Choices -- In The River, one of the most difficult decisions that Brian must make is what to do with Derek after the accident. Should he leave him there and go for help? Should he put him on a raft and take him downriver?

Encourage students to discuss the pros and cons of Brian's choices. What are the many factors that Brian considers before making his decision? Ask students to find incidents in Brian's Winter where Brian is faced with making important decisions. How do his decisions impact his health and safety?

In Brian's Return, Brian tells his mother that he wants to return to the woods to visit the Smallhorns. At what point does Brian realize that he isn't going to the Smallhorns? Ask students to discuss what Brian means by "he would find them when it was time to find them" (p. 110). Encourage students to discuss whether Brian ever goes to them.

Self-Discovery -- After Brian's 54 days in the wilderness in Hatchet, his parents insist that he see a counselor. The counselor thinks that Brian is "mentally injured." Brian, however, feels that his time in the woods changed him in a more positive way. Ask students to discuss what Brian discovers about himself.

In The River, Brian says that he was "reborn in the woods" (p. 9). What does Brian mean?

How does his "rebirth" affect his relationships with his peers in Brian's Return? Why does Caleb, Brian's counselor, feel that Brian must return to the woods?

Interdisciplinary Connections

Science -- Brian learns a lot about animals and how they communicate. Encourage students to select one animal that Brian encounters in Brian's Return, The River, or Brian's Winter and research that animal's method of communication, how it marks its territory, and how it protects itself from predators.

Math -- During his time in the wilderness, Brian draws on various math skills to help himself survive. He has to calculate how many days his food will last, and he must estimate distances when he is hunting. Ask students to create a math problem based on a specific incident or situation in either The River or Brian's Winter.

Art -- In Brian's Winter, Brian takes charcoal from the fire to make sketches of the events of the day on his shelter wall. Invite students to select a favorite scene from either novel and sketch it on poster board. Display the drawings around the room and ask the students to place the scenes in sequential order. Then ask them to brainstorm an appropriate title for each sketch.

Social Studies -- Brian hunts with tools similar to those used by early hunters. How does Brian know which tools to use in specific hunting situations? Ask students to use the library to research ancient hunting methods. Have them construct a pictorial time line that traces the development of various hunting tools.

Language Arts -- Gary Paulsen uses imagery to appeal to all of the senses--sight, sound, smell, taste, and touch. Allow students to browse the books and find examples of such imagery. Ask them to use Paulsen's images to create similes.

Bring an assortment of hunting and fishing magazines to class for students to peruse. Ask them to write a short article for one of the magazines that Brian might write discussing his dislike of "professional fishermen" and "professional hunters."

Ask students to read The Sign of the Beaver by Elizabeth George Speare. Divide the class into groups and ask each to list the survival skills that Matt learns from the Native American boy who befriends him. Then, have them discuss the survival skills that Brian has learned alone. Which boy has the toughest time surviving in the wilderness? Brian writes his thoughts and feelings to Caleb, his counselor. Ask students to write a letter that Matt might write to his parents about his experiences in the wilderness. Encourage the students to share their letters.

Music -- In the Author's Note at the end of Brian's Return, Gary Paulsen writes that he is waiting out winter storms before he can set sail on his boat Felicity. During the rain, he listens to the music of Mozart. Ask students to find recordings that they think reflect Brian's connection with nature.

Exploring Beyond Brian's World

Conservation -- Numerous organizations in America are involved in game management. Have students find out the purpose of each of the following organizations: U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, National Audubon Society, National Wildlife Federation, and Ducks Unlimited. Ask them to create a poster advertising one of these organizations.

Each state in the United States has game laws. Many states require a hunting and fishing license. Ask students to find out the laws regarding hunting and fishing in their state. Why is it important to have such laws?

Survival -- There are wilderness camps located throughout the nation to teach people survival skills. Encourage students to use the Internet to locate a wilderness camp in their state or region. What is the age range of the campers? What type of activities does the camp offer? How long is the camp in session? How much does it cost?

Students may also enjoy locating a camp in another part of the country. How does the locale of the camp affect the type of survival skills taught?

Teaching ideas prepared by Pat Scales, Library Media Specialist, Greenville Middle School, Greenville, South Carolina.

The vocabulary in Brian's Winter is simple, but Paulsen does extraordinary things with language. Encourage students to notice his use of strong verbs to convey difficult tasks--"hefted the lance" (page 62). Ask them to locate other examples of strong verbs in the book and to use a thesaurus to identify appropriate word substitutions.

Words in Brian's Return may include portages (p. 108), feinted (p. 104), and castigating (p. 81).

At the elite Hilliard Preparatory School, the competition is fierce, the gossip is worse, and Blake Dorsey has just arrived back on campus after an unexplained two-year absence.

Skylar Banks has a hunch Blake's in trouble. Skylar's the most likely candidate for valedictorian, but she's no stranger to tricky situations herself. She's got a reputation for taking her relationships straight from JV to varsity, and that rep is about to catch up with her.

Charley Morton doesn't have time for Blake's problems—not if he plans to get into Harvard like his parents expect, or to win over his dream girl (a.k.a. Skylar). But then Blake takes off for New York City, and Charley, Skylar, and her roommate, Marissa, have no choice but to risk their perfect transcripts to find him. It's a journey that will change the way they see each other— and themselves—forever.

Kyosho’s Jared Tebo Wins A-Main USA Worlds Warm Up

Kyosho’s Jared Tebo Wins A-Main USA Worlds Warm Up

From Kyosho America:

The schedule at the US World’s Warm-Up would be ran very similar to how the actual World Championship will be ran in just 1 month in Buenos Aires, Argentina. The Pro Buggy class would have 6 10-minute qualifiers where each drivers 4 best points out of 6 would be used. This would then seed them into the Semi’s that would be set for 30-minutes. The top 5 drivers out of each Semi would transfer straight into the Main Event, then taking the next 2 fastest times from either Semi would round out the 12 car field. The Main Event would be 1-hour of racing!

In Qualifying, it was all Kyosho/Team Orion’s Jared Tebo who went on to TQ 5 out of 6 rounds and take the Overall TQ. Team Associated’s Ryan Maifield qualified 2nd overall and Kyosho/Team Orion’s Cody King would qualify 3rd overall.

The Odd Semi Final was the one to watch with Jared Tebo, Cody King, and Ryan Cavalieri all in the same race. Cody King would take the Win by a few seconds over Tebo. Cavalieri would finish in 3rd just a few more seconds back.

As the tone went off for the 1-hour Main Event, the 12 car freight trained around for lap #1. After a few laps in Maifield was out front with King in 2nd and Cavalieri in 3rd. Tebo had some bad luck and was shuffled to the back of the pack about 1/2 lap down.

At the 10-minute mark in the race, Maifield was still leading, King was still in 2nd, Cavalieri in 3rd. Tebo had moved all the way up into 4th place.

At the 20-minute mark, Maifield continued to lead, King is in 2nd, and Tebo has worked his way up to 3rd laying down the fastest laps of the race.

At the halfway point, Maifield was still leading, but not by much. Tebo had made his way around Cody King for 2nd and was only a few corners behind Maifield. King was in 3rd.

A few minutes later Tebo made it by Maifield on the track and began to stretch out the lead. Maifield in 2nd with a big gap to Tyler Vik who is in 3rd.

Now 40-minutes into the Main Event, Tebo now had a half track lead on Maifield. Vik still holding down 3rd.

With 10-minutes to go in the Main Event, Tebo had now put 2nd place Ryan Maifield a lap down and continued his fast pace. Tyler Vik still in 3rd but began receiving pressure from Cody King.

At the end of the 1-hour Main Event, it was Kyosho/Team Orion’s Jared Tebo crossing the finish line 1st 1 1/2 laps ahead of 2nd place Ryan Maifield. 3rd Place would go to Kyosho/Team Orion’s Cody King on a last lap pass.

Pro Buggy Overall Top 3:
1. Jared Tebo (TQ)  Kyosho MP9 TKI3
2. Ryan Maifield                     AE
3. Cody King            Kyosho MP9 TKI3

Itchy kissy: Bad breath worse than smelly

Q. Of all the many things you might be allergic to, what just could be the nuttiest of them all? –Amedo Obici

 A. Your lover's sweet but potentially dangerous kisses, says Science News magazine. The offending ingredient here is not lips or saliva, but some sort of food eaten by the other person, often peanuts, says Suzanne S. Teuber of the University of California-Davis School of Medicine.

In a number of cases studied, the kissees had developed hives where they were kissed– and even other symptoms (although rarely)– even though some of the kissers had eaten the nuts hours earlier, and occasionally even despite a teeth brushing in the interim. Symptoms tended to commence within a minute, such as localized itching and swelling.

One serious reaction was in a peanut-allergic boy; another sent a young woman to an emergency room with anaphylaxis after kissing her shrimp-eating boyfriend. Some two to four percent of the U.S. population have food allergies– about one percent to peanuts or tree nuts such as walnuts, cashews and almonds, two percent to seafoods.

In one UC-Davis survey, six percent of the allergic participants reported reactions from kissing. Similar numbers came out of a European survey. Scott Sicherer of New York's Mt. Sinai School of Medicine reported that a peck on the cheek is unlikely to cause a severe problem, but that longer, more passionate kisses with much saliva exchanged just might.

For people with severe food allergies, advised Sicherer, always carry self-injectable epinephrine. "It will buy time to get to a hospital emergency room," he says.

Q. Very bad news: Skytrackers say we have one week before an asteroid hits Earth. Is there any place you might go to help dodge what's coming? –H. Penny

 A. Be thankful if you've got a gas-frugal car, then fill up and head north (depending on location) into Canada, says Stan Odenwald in Back to the Astronomy Café.

The reasoning is that asteroid orbits make hits more likely within about 25 degrees latitude of the equator, though they're possible anywhere, says Sonoma State University astronomer Philip Plait. Meteorites are found even in the Antarctic, so going North could backfire.

Getting to higher ground is probably a good bet, says Plait. That way you avoid floods if there's a tsunami from an ocean impact. But a mountain near the San Andreas fault might be a bad choice.

How about getting into an airplane? Maybe, unless the impact is really close– an airborne shockwave could slap a plane right out of the sky! Of course, these are only educated guesses, and it might be better just to stay at home near social services.

For asteroids less than a mile across, only local regions will take a bad hit. For five miles across, best to make sure all your affairs are in order, says Plait. The five-mile dino-doomer released energy billions of times more than the world's total nuclear arsenal. Rocks blown up through the atmosphere and falling back to Earth would cause widespread fires. Not to mention earthquakes, tsunamis....

"Astronomers are diligently locating such potential impactors, and with some decent funding, might even explore ways of diverting them," says Plait.

Q. What in snake venom makes it so deadly? Could the venom ever be beneficial to humans?

A. Toxic enzymes (proteins) are the killer, with many snakes having 20 or more in varying amounts, says biologist William Hayes of Loma Linda University. Venom composition differs from species to species, with close relatives having similar toxins.

However, venoms are dynamic and can change even within an individual snake's lifetime. Juvenile rattlesnakes, for example, typically produce a more toxic venom that changes over time to become a more digestive venom as they need to kill bulkier prey and digest them. In general, haemotoxic venoms kill by inducing circulatory or toxic shock, neurotoxic venoms paralyze muscles, including those for breathing, adds physiologist Scott Turner of the State University of New York.

A hot area of venom research is medical: Some neurotoxins work as muscle relaxants, others help with diseases like Parkinson's. Haemotoxins may aid stroke or heart attack victims or shrink cancerous tumors. Ironically, some day, a deadly snake might save your life.

Q. One member of the church choir had taken a nap and overslept, another ran into car trouble, a third was finishing up some homework. It turns out everyone had areas on and everyone was late– all 15 members of the Beatrice, Nebraska choir, from 10 different households. So what was so marvelous about all this coincidental tardiness? –B. Graham

 A. What are the chances that 10 different households will all experience independent (not a snowstorm etc.) delays and all be late? If you estimate that the average choir member is late 10 percent of the time, poses Bart K. Holland in What Are the Chances?, then the chance of 10 independent latenesses was 0.1 to the 10th power, or 1 in 10billion!

Even if the chance of a delaying event was 20 percent per household, the probability for all 10 was 1 in 10 million. Some church members wondered if divine providence was at work, for on this night in 1950 a freak explosion destroyed the church a few minutes after the choir practice was scheduled to start.

"Was this a miracle?" asks Holland. Certainly, the probability here was vanishingly small, he says, but still you can't rule out amazing coincidence.
