Photos by: IOMTT.com Despite a rainy, chilly practice week, where, as of this writing, there has been no practice but copious ale consumption, the Isle of Man is starting to fill up with thousands of visitors and motorcycles here for the 110th annual TT races. Once the skies clear, the 37.75-mile Mountain Course, two-lane country roads festooned with more than 200 turns, a mountain, stone walls, pubs, roving livestock, and race watchers in hedges, will come alive with racers hitting speeds excess of 200 mph. The TT is without parallel, an intense, immersive two-week long festival in a beautiful (if occasionally moist) setting where everyone loves you because, motorcycles. I’ll be filing my ‘man on the island’ reports and video for Motorcycle.com again, capturing the goings on during the TT. All race results will posted on MO as well, so check in regularly. So, before the racing fully kicks in, and while my riding gear is drying out, here are some of the storylines surrounding the 2017 TT.

Fan favorites including 23-race TT winner John McGuinness (sadly, out of the TT this year for the first time since 1996 due to injuries from a crash at the NW200), chill Kiwi Bruce Anstey, with 11 wins and 36 total podiums, and Ian Lougher, who has started in 111 TT races, with 10 wins, can still win. But despite the incredible danger, long learning curve, and scant prize money, a new generation of stars in in their 20s and early 30s have arrived. Roadrace royal family member Michael Dunlop, the ‘Bingley Bullet’ Ian Hutchinson, and up and comers James Hillier, Dean Harrison, Peter Hickman, and others, are now racking up victories, podiums, and top-10 finishes. Some of these names will be etched on TT ‘replicas’ for a decade or more to come, and the depth of field and level of competition for the TT might be greater than it has ever been.

Nineteen of the first 20 seeded riders for this year’s Senior TT have lapped at over 128 mph, with a collective 71 TT victories and 195 podiums. Despite that, most competitors hold day jobs and race for the love racing. The TT, after 110 years, still draws in brave men and women to do the impossible. The rewards for winning – hell, for just completing in a TT – are meager in dollars but unmatched in achievement. The TT Will Make Sidecar Racing Cool Again Well, it already is as cool as all get out, but sidecar racing is a sport that deserves greater respect, attention, and sponsorship. The three-wheeled machines are powered primarily by 600cc Fours with a kneeling driver and a ‘passenger’ who must climb all over the body of the outfit, with their ass, head, legs and other extremities inches from the pavement in what looks like motorcycle hot yoga. The price to be paid for getting one of the 200-plus turns wrong is quite high. Ben and Tom Birchall win Sure Sidecar TT Race 2 2016, setting a new lap record in the process.

Trust's 10-episode first season is set in 1973 and centers on the abduction in Italy of John Paul Getty III, then-heir to Getty Oil. The first season will be written by Simon Beaufoy and directed by Danny Boyle. The 19th edition of this international workshop will be co-located with held in Sao Paulo, Brazil on May 8-12, 2017. Lates t News • 22 experts in the field have joined the Program Committee! Description Trust is important in many kinds of interactions, including direct or computer-mediated human interaction, human-computer interaction and among social agents; it characterizes those elements that are essential in social reliability. It also informs the selection of partners for successful multiagent coordination (for example, in robotics applications). Trust is more than communication that is robust against repudiation or interference. The reliability of information about the status of a trade partner, for example, is only partly dependent on secure communication. With the growing prevalence of social interaction through electronic means, trust, reputation, privacy and identity become more and more important. Trust is not just a simple, monolithic concept; it is multi-faceted, operating at many levels of interaction, and playing many roles. Another growing trend is the use of reputation mechanisms, and in particular the interesting link between trust and reputation. Many computational and theoretical models and approaches to reputation have been developed in recent years (for ecommerce, social networks, blogs, etc.). Further, identity and associated trustworthiness must be ascertained for reliable interactions and transactions. Trust is foundational for the notion of agency and for its defining relation of acting 'on behalf of'. It is also critical for modeling and supporting groups and teams, for both organization and coordination, with the related trade-off between individual utility and collective interest. The electronic medium seems to weaken the usual bonds of social control and the disposition to cheat grows stronger: this is yet another context where trust modeling is critical. The aim of the workshop is to bring together researchers (ideally from different disciplines) who can contribute to a better understanding of trust and reputation in agent societies. We welcome submissions of high-quality research addressing issues that are clearly relevant to trust, deception, privacy, reputation, security and control in agent-based systems, from theoretical, applied and interdisciplinary perspectives. Beehives in an apiary Daniel Milchev/Getty Images Seventy-one million. That's the number of bees Max Nikolaychuk tends in the rolling hills east of Fresno, Calif. Each is worth a fraction of a cent, but together, they make up a large part of his livelihood. Nikolaychuk makes most of his money during almond pollination season, renting out the bees to California's almond orchards. This year, a thief stole four stacks of his hives. 'He knew about the bees, because he went through every bee colony I had and only took the good ones,' he says. 'But, you know, the bee yards — I don't have no security there, no fences.' That lack of security means his bees have been stolen more than once. And it's a type of theft that's been playing out all over the state's orchards. Action Times are tough for Jez.and his motley crew of car mechanics, scraping a dishonest living in a small town on the Essex coast. So when they hear on the grapevine that a million pounds in. See full summary ». Short Two handsome master criminals are trying to pull off a big heist so they're putting together the most incredible heist team that has ever heist teamed before. United by dire circumstances, four unlikely allies from a Philadelphia prep school - the hacker, the slacker, the athlete, and the perfect student - band together to. Literally billions of bees are needed to pollinate California's almond crop. Not enough bees live in California year-round to do that. So they are trucked in from across the country, from places like Colorado, Arizona and Montana. Earlier this year, around a million dollars' worth of stolen bees were found in a field in Fresno County. Arley Terrence with the Fresno County Sheriff's Department says it was a 'beehive chop shop.' 'There were so many different beehives and bee boxes owned by so many different victims,' Terrence says. 'All of these stolen bee boxes that we recovered — none of them were stolen in Fresno County.' The bees were stolen from across California, but they belong to beekeepers from around the country. A few thousand bee boxes disappear every year, but this bee heist was different. 'This is the biggest bee theft investigation that we've had,' Terrence says. Most of the time, he says, beehive thieves turn out to be 'someone within the bee community.' Earlier this year, California authorities uncovered this 'beehive chop-shop' in a field in Fresno County. A single bee is worth a fraction of a cent, but there can be as many as 65,000 bees in each hive. Ezra Romero for NPR That was the case in the giant heist earlier this year. The alleged thief, Pavel Tveretinov, was a beekeeper from Sacramento who used the stolen bees for pollination and then stashed them on a plot of land in Fresno County. He was arrested and could face around 10 years of jail time. And authorities say he didn't act alone. His alleged accomplice, Vitaliy Yeroshenko, has been charged and a warrant is out for his arrest. Steve Godlin with the California State Beekeepers Association says the problem of hive theft gets worse every year. 'There used to be kind of a code of honor that you didn't mess with another man's bees,' Godlin says. But the alleged perpetrators of this giant hive theft broke that code. 'He went way, way over the line, Godlin says. 'It's just, you know, heart breaking when you go out and your bees are gone.' Godlin has had hives stolen in the past. He and many other beekeepers make their income not just from renting out hives but also from selling the honey the bees produce. So when bees are stolen, beekeepers lose out on both sources of income. Godlin says it takes time to develop a new hive by introducing a new queen and developing honey. 'Bees, you know, we have been hit by everything from vandals to bears to thieves. But the vandalism and thieving is the worst. You know, the one that hurts the most.' Godlin says his organization will pay a reward of up to $10,000 for tips leading to the prosecution of bee thieves. But that only relieves some of the sting.

But I feared this would probably suck as so many films staring former movie favorites do with type casting. Yet it I held out hope and boy I wasn't disappointed. Good to see Steven Yuen land on his feet in a starring role since his character Glenn got Lucille'd. What I found delightful was the excellent writing, gore, acting an social commentary.

The purpose of the present volume is to complement and enrich the existing studies by providing readers with a kaleidoscopic perspective, allowing for a holistic interpretation and understanding of Northern English. It includes studies not only on phonology but also on semantics, syntax and sociolinguistics from a synchronic and diachronic point of view, with a special emphasis on the process of enregisterment.
