Well, it was only R55. The problem is the lid has no hinges to lock the lid in, and if you make whole wheat pasta, which has to cook for long, the heat buckles the lid, and if you try to drain your pasta the lid falls off and your pasta has gone down the drain literally. Made normal pasta in it as well, cooked for the recommended time, pasta was still raw, going to extend the cooking time, hopefully the lid will not buckle because of the extra heat for normal pasta, but can't say for sure.

Ted Rall says something maliciously stupid, Ted Rall milks the resulting publicity, etc., etc. Same old story. What's amusing to me about this latest one is that now he's claiming to have received hundreds of "death threats." I'm kind of skeptical about that, because Rall's definition of the term "death threat" is a bit looser than the one used by the rest of us. For example, he claimed the following post from Robert Lee to the alt.society.generation-x newsgroup in Nov. 2001 was a "death threat":
Dear Santa:
Please let somebody kill Ted Rall while he's in Afghanistan.
That's the only thing I've ever asked for in my life for Christmas, except the Six Million Dollar Man with all the extra arms, and I promise I'll never ask for anything else.
This was a Usenet post, mind you. The guy didn't e-mail it to Rall or inform him in any way. He made a joke on a newsgroup. Rall found it on his own (in one of his self-Googling sweeps, I'd imagine). He then informed Lee that he had "forwarded the threat to the proper authorities." As I wondered at the time, who are the proper authorities for putting out a hit on somebody via a letter to Santa? The CIA (Christmastime Interceptors of Assassination)?
Rall also claimed that when Danny Hellman made some message board comment about "chalk outlines at a book signing," that was a death threat against him too. I don't have a direct link for that; it was on the Comics Journal boards, and they delete their archives every few months. But as Hellman noted over at A Small Victory in Feb. 2003:
Actually, the "chalk outlines" remark was one I made in reference to a book release party for Sammy "Wanted By The Feds" Henderson's THE MAGIC WHISTLE BLOWS, (published by St. Martin's Press). As far as I know, no one has ever said anything about "the NYPD drawing chalk outlines at a Ted Rall book signing," (after all, chalk outlines require the presence of actual human bodies).
In an effort to beef up his weak claim for Intentional Infliction of Emotional Distress, (one of five original claims in Rall v Hellman) Rall tried to misrepresent the chalk outlines remark as a death threat, but the emotional distress claim (along with two others) was thrown out by the New York State Supreme Court long ago.
I'm not going to rehash Rall/Hellman yet again. Google it if you're interested. Point is, if Rall was showing you the new suit he just bought for his latest Bill O'Reilly appearance, and you said it was "to die for," he'd add that to his list of death threats.
Update: Oh hell, I almost missed another excuse to trot out this old bit of "Rall death threat" detournment again. It's obviously still relevant.Posted by Jim Treacher at May 6, 2004 08:29 AM

The species–area relationship (SAR) is a fundamental empirical generalisation in ecology (Rosenzweig 1995; Lomolino 2000; Blackburn & Gaston 2003) and the prima facie reason for predicting declining biodiversity with on-going massive habitat conversion by humans (Millenium Ecosystem Assessment 2005). MacArthur & Wilson's (1963, 1967) theory of island biogeography was the first dynamic model to predict the SAR, followed by many other models (Ricklefs & Bermingham 2004; Kadmon & Allouche 2007; Rosindell & Cornell 2007, 2009; Whittaker et al. 2008). Given that very different models predict SARs, it is clear that just demonstrating a SAR for a particular system does not tell much about the mechanisms that have generated it. Nonetheless, it is widely agreed that the two main ecological processes that contribute to SARs are increasing habitat heterogeneity with increasing area, which allows a larger number of species with dissimilar ecological requirements to co-occur within larger areas (though see Allouche et al. 2012); and increasing probability of population survival with increasing population size and hence with increasing area, given that, other things being equal, larger areas tend to support larger populations (Hanski & Gyllenberg 1997).
SARs are most commonly described by the power-law S = cAz (Arrhenius 1921; Rosenzweig 1995), where S is the number of species, A is the area of the habitat, and c and z are two parameters. In log–log space, the value of z gives the slope of the increasing number of species with increasing area. Starting with the pioneering study by Connor & McCoy (1979), researchers have attempted to relate the value of z to environmental and ecological variables, but with only limited success (Matter et al. 2002; Ovaskainen & Hanski 2003; Drakare et al. 2006; Tjorve & Tjorve 2008). One generalisation to emerge is that, across a large range of spatial scales, the SAR exhibits three phases: a relatively steep slope for very small areas, which harbour only small numbers of individuals per species; a shallower slope for intermediate (regional) scales; and again a steep slope for very large scales, in the extreme covering several continents, which tend to have different sets of species (Rosenzweig 1995; Hubbell 2001). Most analyses, including the present one, are concerned with the regional scale, typically ranging from roughly 1 to 106 km2.
Power-law SARs have been used to predict extinctions of species due to reduced area of habitat (Whitmore & Sayer 1992; May et al. 1995; Brooks & Balmford 1996; Cowlishaw 1999; Ney-Nifle & Mangel 2000; Pimm & Raven 2000; Brooks et al. 2002; Brook et al. 2003; Pereira & Daily 2006; Pimm et al. 2006; Hanski et al. 2007). If the original habitat area A is reduced to Anew, the fraction of species that is predicted to remain following habitat loss is given by
In other words, if Anew = xA, where x is the fraction of remaining habitat, fraction xz of the original species will survive – the rest go extinct. Note that eqn 1 assumes that the power-law SAR applies both before and after habitat loss with the same value of z, which raises the question as to when, following habitat loss, the new species number Snew should be recorded, immediately after habitat loss or following any transient dynamics. We return to this question below.
Recently, He & Hubbell (2011) have argued that eqn 1 always overestimates extinctions, because the area required to remove the last individual of a species from a landscape, corresponding to extinction, is typically much larger than the area needed to encounter the first individual, on which basis SAR is constructed. To demonstrate their claim, He & Hubbell (2011) fitted to empirical data the power-law SAR as well as the following equation:
where a is the area destroyed and Sloss is the number of endemic species to area a, that is, species that only occurred within a and which were hence immediately lost when a was destroyed. He & Hubbell (2011) call eqn 2 the endemics–area relationship (EAR), which is however confusing, because eqn 2 does not describe the increase in the number of endemic species with area, given by Sloss = caz (Harte & Kinzig 1997; Kinzig & Harte 2000). Considering the slope values, z in eqn 2 is typically equal or less than z in the power-law SAR, whereas z in the power-law EAR, Sloss = caz, is greater than z in the corresponding SAR (Harte & Kinzig 1997; Kinzig & Harte 2000). Equation 2 may be rewritten as
which gives the fraction of species surviving habitat loss as a power of the fraction of remaining area. We hence call eqn 3 and the equivalent eqn 2 as the 'remaining species–area relationship', RAR, to avoid confusing it with EAR as defined by Harte & Kinzig (1997) (Table 1). Equation 3 describes the relationship between the number of remaining species and the remaining area immediately following habitat loss and the loss of endemic species. Noting that Snew = S − Sloss, eqns 1 and 3 are structurally equivalent, but because different data are used to estimate the value of z, the respective z values may be different. There is much confusion in the literature concerning the use of eqn 3; we describe our approach explicitly in the following section.
|Species–area relationship gives the number of species occurring in area A. The power-law SAR given here is the most commonly used functional form; SAR may be calculated for different spatial scales and for communities with different spatial population dynamics (Table 2)
|Endemics–area relationship gives the number of species confined to area a that is a part of the total area A
|Remaining species–area relationship gives the fraction of species that have populations outside the area a, that is, within A–a
While constructing any SAR, two issues that deserve attention are the spatial configuration of the habitat and the way species are sampled. Concerning the spatial configuration, the primary distinction is between continuous vs. fragmented habitats. The latter are represented by true and habitat islands, which are also the natural units of sampling while constructing SARs. In the case of continuous habitat, researchers typically overlay a regular lattice over the landscape for sampling. For different sampling schemes, see Dengler (2009), Gotelli & Colwell (2001), Scheiner (2003) and Smith (2010). An important point to note is that all these sampling schemes involve subareas of the same landscape. In contrast, in conservation one typically asks about the capacity of different landscapes with more or less habitat to support viable populations and species (Simberloff & Abele 1976; Hanski & Ovaskainen 2000). To address this question, one may construct a SAR with individual data points representing different landscapes with dissimilar amounts of habitat rather than subareas of the same landscape. Table 2 summarises our view about the different types of situations for which a SAR may be constructed. We recognise three types of data sampled within a single landscape (region): nested or non-nested clusters of lattice cells from a continuous landscape, discrete habitat fragments from a mainland-island setting (as originally studied by MacArthur & Wilson 1963, 1967) and discrete habitat fragments in a landscape without a mainland (the metapopulation setting). On the other hand, when different landscapes are the units of sampling, we distinguish between cases where the habitat occurs as a single block, which is implicitly assumed by the conventional SAR (the 'one-fragment' (OF-)SAR, Table 2), and cases where the habitat occurs in many discrete fragments (the 'fragmented landscape' (FL-)SAR). The slope of the SAR depends on how it is defined (Rosenzweig 1995; Ulrich & Buszko 2004; Tjorve & Turner 2009), and hence, the definition affects any predictions concerning the survival of species in the face of habitat loss. In particular, applications of power-law SARs to predict extinctions are often based on the slope value 0.25, which stems from MacArthur & Wilson's (1967) original work and a large number of subsequent empirical studies analysing variation in the number of species on true islands (Connor & McCoy 1979; Rosenzweig 1995). This slope value does not necessarily apply to the other settings in Table 2, especially not to continental SARs as has been known for a long time (MacArthur & Wilson's 1967; Brown 1971).
|Type of SAR
|Spatial unit of sampling
|Subareas of different sizes
|Subareas of a continuous landscape delimited in one way or another
|Discrete habitat fragments
|Habitat fragments receive migration from permanent mainland populations; this is the original mainland-island setting of the theory of island biogeography
|Discrete habitat fragments
|No mainland, species occur as metapopulations in a network of habitat fragments
|One-fragment (OF-SAR)
|Calculated for isolated habitat fragments (e.g. true and habitat islands) of different sizes with completely isolated populations
|Fragmented landscape (FL-SAR)
|Calculated for replicate fragmented landscapes with differences in the total amount of habitat and the degree of fragmentation
To return to the task of predicting extinctions due to habitat loss, we reiterate that eqn 3 and EARs (Harte & Kinzig 2011; Kinzig & Harte 1997) by definition describe the number of species going extinct immediately following complete loss of habitat in the area occupied by the endemic species. In conservation, we are concerned not only with these immediate extinctions but also with subsequent extinctions due to the remaining habitat being insufficient to support, in the long-term, viable populations of other (non-endemic) species. Second, predictions about extinctions based on SAR, RAR and EAR are focused on the pooled amount of habitat that is lost across the region, while they ignore possible consequences of habitat fragmentation. Arguably, this is a major shortcoming when the total amount of remaining habitat is small or relatively small and fragmentation becomes severe (Hanski 2005). Third, most models that have been constructed to derive SAR, RAR and EAR ignore spatial correlation in habitat type and differences in species ecological requirements (e.g. Kinzig & Harte's 2000 derivation of EAR from SAR, Hubbell's 2011 neutral model, He & Hubbell's 2011 sampling models and Storch et al.'s 2012 model of range placement; but see Sizling & Storch 2004). Fourth, SAR, RAR and EAR are typically not derived from dynamic models, which is a shortcoming at regional scales, where the occurrence of most species is dynamic and affected by dispersal.
Here, we aim at providing a perspective on the use of SAR and RAR in predicting extinctions by taking a computational approach: we construct a dynamic simulation model of the spatial dynamics of a large number of species to analyse and clarify habitat area-dependent extinctions. We develop a simple yet robustly realistic model, with the following key features. We ignore interspecific interactions but assume differences in the ecological traits of the species. We model stochastic patch occupancy dynamics (Hanski 1994; Moilanen 1999) on a lattice, assuming an exponential dispersal kernel (Ovaskainen & Hanski 2004) with a parameter specifying the average range of dispersal. The lattice cells are characterised by spatially variable habitat type, which is spatially correlated at a scale that can be adjusted with a parameter. The performance of a local population in a lattice cell is determined by the match between the species phenotype and habitat type. The model includes regional stochasticity, that is, spatially correlated environmental stochasticity, which leads to spatially correlated extinctions. We construct continental SARs, OF-SARs and RARs for the simulation results, with the aim of examining differences in their slopes. We then analyse transient dynamics following habitat loss, to contrast extinctions that occur immediately following habitat loss vs. further extinctions in the course of transient dynamics towards the new quasi-stationary state. Finally, we analyse the influence of habitat fragmentation vs. the influence of habitat loss on the number of surviving species. We conclude that contrary to He & Hubbell (2011), RARs always underestimate even short-term extinctions, because following habitat loss many non-endemic species go quickly extinct in the remaining habitat, where they do not have viable populations. However, and what is very important, conventional SARs produce large or even very large underestimates of the number of species going extinct in highly fragmented landscapes with a small total amount of remaining habitat. We modify the power-law SAR to account for the effect of fragmentation, and we make a simple recommendation that helps reduce the fragmentation effect in practical conservation.

Red Knights step up their bid to buy Man Utd
Mon 12th Apr 2010 | Clubs Ownership
More than 40 wealthy investors stand ready to put their money into the bid to buy Manchester United being planned by the Red Knights group of entrepreneurs as reported in the Observer newspaper.
The Red Knights are said to have been meeting weekly at the London offices of financial adviser Nomura to hammer out the final details of the bid. They are now deciding whether to have 50 investors paying £10 million each, or fewer investors paying more per head, in a £500 million contribution to the £1.25 billion deal. The rest of the bid will be made up from securities issued to Manchester United fans, raising £250 million, and the £500 million bond which the club issued earlier this year and the new buyers plan to retain.
The investment team's plan is to eventually hand ownership of the club back to the fans, in the mould of Spanish club Barcelona, which is owned by 100,000 "socios", or club members. But the Red Knights admit they will have a tough task working out a structure for the deal that will satisfy the "egos and testosterone" of the investors queuing up to back the bid. The vision of Jim O'Neill, the economist leading the Red Knights, is that the investment will be an act of altruism, delivering only a small return.
Manchester United's current owners the American Glazer family still say the club is not for sale. But The Observer quoted Philip Long, a partner at accountancy firm PKF, as saying "It will be [for sale] – everything's always for sale."
"The model at the moment isn't profitable unless they sell players. The club can't continue making the losses it's made."

Preparation For a Commercial Hurricane Insurance Claim Is Vital
Gregory P. Raab
Public Adjusting and Disaster Recovery Services
- Phone: 315.272.2134
- Email: Email Greg
There has been a spike in the number and severity of hurricanes in recent years. In the aftermath of these storms, there have been too many occasions where businesses were not adequately covered due to the complexities of the loss and inadequacy of their insurance coverage. Understanding your business' full exposure, and minimizing your risks, can help you financially survive the next major hurricane. The success of your claim will be vital to your financial recovery.
Since a hurricane is largely unpredictable, policyholders along the coasts must always ready themselves for the possibility of future damaging storms and the likelihood of having to file a commercial hurricane claim. In the aftermath of a hurricane, many priorities come to mind, but primarily:
- protecting your property,
- getting your business operating again,
- recovering damaged/lost goods, and
- getting reimbursed for lost expenses
in general, are paramount. Just like boarding your windows before the hurricane, understanding your commercial insurance policy long before a disaster strikes is essential to protecting your insurable interest and ensuring a fast claim recovery. If you have contingency plans established and the proper insurance in place, you will be better prepared to deal with the hurricane insurance claim process which will follow.
Following a major hurricane, it can take an expert to navigate the entire process and maximize your disaster recovery. Our public insurance adjusters' experience with hurricanes is unprecedented. Starting with Hurricane Elena in 1985, we have handled thousands of commercial insurance claims resulting from every hurricane to have hit the U.S. and Caribbean over the past 31 years. And you can be assured that our team of experts will be there with you every step of the way: preparing, negotiating, and settling your business' hurricane damage claim.

Earlier today, Demian Farnworth, author of the blog Fallen and Flawed, sent me a link to this podcast from Christian apologist Dr. William Lane Craig.
Tonight, I will be live-blogging my reactions to Dr. Craig's commentary, having never heard this podcast before. Let's see how this goes.
Question: It seems like more and more Christian apologists are leaving the faith and actively promoting atheism on the Internet. What do you think? Further, is it really possible to leave the faith for intellectual rather than emotional reasons?
Dr. Craig: You could say that the increasing number of people leaving the faith who have studied apologetics is simply a function of the increasing number of people who are studying apologetics.
Other Host: I think we have to look at in on a case-by-case basis. Could someone leave the faith for any intellectual reasons, or is it emotional?
Dr. Craig: I think it's for moral reasons, frankly...I say that not on the basis of case studies or investigations, but on the basis of what Scripture says.
Me: Whoa, I was with you up until then. You haven't done any case studies, you haven't done any investigations - you don't have any stories or rumors. Just Scripture...not very convincing.
Dr. Craig: Scripture says that if you inculcate godliness into your character, you will not fail [emphasis mine].
Me: 'The Scripture says'. I've read entirely too many deconversion accounts where people have specifically related that losing their faith was the last thing they ever wanted to do, that they wanted to serve their God but just could no longer believe. 'The Scripture says' isn't doing it for me, because unlike Dr. Craig, I actually have read up on "case studies".
Dr. Craig: This is why Christian apologists must make sure that we're keeping our lives clean and pure and holy before God.
Me: Fine. But you honestly think every other person who ever deconverted didn't try that? That's the great thing about defending Christianity: it's so difficult that no one can reasonably be expected to live it, so easy that you can get a child to do it.
Dr. Craig: I think, ultimately, that no one either fails to come to faith or falls away from faith due to intellectual difficulties alone. Ultimately, it's a spiritual matter about the orientation of that person's heart, and whether that person truly wants God and is open to God, or whether that person is closing God out of his heart and mind.
The Other Host and Dr. Craig: Some other stuff about Paul.
Dr. Craig: Some of these Christian apologists who have fallen away will often be very open about the moral difficulties which have led to their falling away: immorality, pornography, adultery"
Other Host: It's pretty easy to get burned out...so the last thing we want to do is to start taking a hardened stance towards people.
Me: That sounds like fairly good advice to me for any profession.
Dr. Craig: Another danger is becoming too cerebral...Alvin Plantinga, his book talks about how because of sin we love ourselves instead of God...the Holy Spirit helps repair that and help us respond emotionally to God and love Him. And if we ignore that side of our personality, then we can become dry and burned out.
Other Host: Sometimes people need just a human touch.
Me: Again, that sounds like good advice.
Dr. Craig: I think when you look at the some of the narratives of those who have left the faith, you will find a bitterness and a disappointment with those in the Christian Church because people did not come along side of them and help them when they were going through their time of struggle.
Me: And that's pretty much the end of the discussion on that subject.
Dr. Craig is clearly sincere about his beliefs. When presented with the potential problem of people who shared the same beliefs as Dr. Craig and no longer believe what he believes - it's only natural that Dr. Craig should find a way to reconcile his opinion that he has correct beliefs with evidence that contradicts his beliefs. By dismissing those accounts, which very obviously contradict his beliefs if he grants that some of the people who've deconverted may have done so for intellectual reasons, he's reaffirmed his beliefs from doubt. Once one begins the path of 'there may be intellectual reasons against my belief', one's priority is going to be critical thinking, and one is going to end up questioning one's beliefs.
Of course, there are plenty of religious people who are good critical thinkers. But the beliefs of Dr. Craig clearly have the most important place in his life, subordinating all other interests and motivations. Intellectual reasons for deconversion? No way. It can't be. Get out of here. There must be some other reason for this incident - they must have sinned or something, or maybe they were never Christians in the first place? It's easy to rationalize, and in the end, that's what I think this process is.
When sincere religious believers such as Dr. Craig become aware that other people around them no longer share their beliefs, there's some tension that has to be resolved. If the belief is correct, then logically people wouldn't leave the faith for intellectual reasons. If people may have left for intellectual reasons, then the faith may not be all it's cracked up to be, and that's clearly an unacceptable option for Dr. Craig and for many others who present similar arguments about the true nature of ex-Christians.

One of the things we love about this area of southern Germany are the castle ruins scattered over the countryside. For the most part, the original ones were built somewhere in the 11th and 12th centuries, and were destroyed in the Thirty Years War, which trampled over this region like a rampaging herd of dinosaurs repeatedly in the 17th century. We've been driving around, checking them out in the incredibly cold mist we've been having every day lately. Of course, this means our seven year old is completely over castles now it seems. *sigh*
St Michael's Monastery
The above is not actually a castle but someone's house, directly below Heidelberg Castle.

Hard to believe we are already headed for week 22 in the Premier League. Where has all the time gone?
When it comes to my personal predictions, I didn't have a bad week this week. Only stumbled a bit with the Everton/Man City tie (I called a 3-0 blowout). However, I did call the Liverpool/Sunderland match perfectly and had the right margin of victory in the Chelsea/Newcastle rematch. Before we get to my matches of the week for week 22 though....some thoughts on week 21.Of Course You Would, EvertonAfter so many weeks of abysmal performances against mediocre at best teams, of course Everton would manage a draw against the reigning champions from Man City. This result would leave the door open for Chelsea to take sole possession at the top of the table once again.
Just goes to show you...nothing is certain in the Premier LeagueDon't Call it a ComebackWeren't the Saints supposed to be falling from grace? Didn't the clock strike midnight on the Cinderella Story? Didn't someone tell Southampton that the expectations were gone?
Obviously not, because Southampton have fought their way back into the Top 3 with a 1-0 win over Manchester United. Although they are still 10 points shy of first place, Saints fans can hold onto hope once again as their gritty side continues to overachieve even when many of given up on them. This week Southampton proved why they are one of the funnest stories of the 2014/15 season so far. Foxes Get Three Points from Villa
At this point in the season, recently promoted Leicester City is playing to stay away from relegation and in week 21 they took a step in the right direction with a 1-0 win over Aston Villa.
With Hull City and QPR (especially) struggling as of late, I have this feeling the Foxes could actually escape relegation this season as they've managed to keep matches close with many of their opponents this season regardless of how talented the opponent is. I get the feeling Leicester is one of those sides that is just a couple acquisitions away from climbing up to mid table if they can stick around for one more season.
Now for my three matches of the week, as always....quit being a wallflower! Share your thoughts and predictions as well in the comment section!
Match 1: Leicester City v. Stoke City
Perhaps it's my love of an underdog or it's just the fact that foxes are generally one of the coolest animals out there, but I am loving the thought of a run of good play from Leicester to stave off relegation and so I am liking them to pull one out over Stoke City. Now don't get me wrong, I have always been a fan of the Potters as well, being that they've been one of the more likely squads to give Americans abroad time on the pitch, but I am all about the foxes right now.
My prediction: Leicester City 2 - 1 Stoke City
Match 2: Swansea City v. Chelsea
Chelsea is enjoying their alone time at the top of the table once again, but Swansea City - much like many other mid table squads this season - is always unpredictable especially when going against a team they are supposed to lose to. I actually foresee an upset with this one.
My prediction: Swansea City 3 - 2 Chelsea
Match 3: Manchester City v. Arsenal
Man City will be hungry to get three points after only getting one against lackluster Everton, but Arsenal did look impressive with a 3-0 win over Stoke City in week 21. That said, if we go with Arsenal's season so far, that win would almost certainly mean a head scratching loss this week. For that reason alone, I find it hard to put any money on Arsenal.
My prediciton: Man City 4 - 2 Arsenal
Let us know what you think!

Cholesterol isn't famous for its role in our cell membranes, or as a precurser to many of our hormones of our body. Rather, it's famous for its role in heart disease. Cholesterol is blamed almost exclusively for the millions of deaths each year due to heart disease.

Despite Paris Hilton's sexy image that she portrays in the public eye, Nick Carter (Paris Hilton's ex) reckons she needs booze and drugs to get her sexed up!
Nick Carter claimed:
"She was a drunken prude who as far as I can see did not really like sex.
"She relied on drugs and drink to give her confidence in the bedroom and was more often than not too wasted to even perform.
"I lost count of the nights I had to pick her off the floor and drag her to bed passed out."
She made it clear she wanted to have sex and couldn't keep her hands off me," he said.
"At the start she loved to tease me by saying she wasn't wearing any pants. But because I know Paris is used to getting what she wants when she wants, I was determined to make her wait, which drove her wild with desire.
"In fact I held out for three weeks before I had sex with her.
"We'd flown to the Bahamas and I wanted everything to be perfect. But Paris got completely wasted and the sex was distinctly average as we were both too drunk to really enjoy it. It was just a blur of Jack Daniel's."
Up to you if you want to believe him though….it's his words….I am not sure if they are totally reliable…Maybe I should talk to Paris Hilton's other exes. There's heaps of them out there!

Sea World is a short drive away, plus Knots Soak City, Lego Land, and the San Diego Wild Animal Park! The coaster (light rail) is a short walk away, and Downtown San Diego, with its great food, nightlife, and sports venues is a short trip from this townhouse!
And if you enjoy shopping, close by all along the 101 coast highway are all kinds of ecclectic shops with unique finds. If you enjoy outlet shopping, head up the coast a little more and stop by the huge outlet shopping center in Carlsbad.

If you have thought about keeping your car but switching the fuel to something more sustainable than gasoline, the conversion process is about to get easier thanks to new rules passed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
Prior EPA rules and the Clean Air Act made it difficult to convert vehicles to run on alternative fuels because these laws prohibited altering a vehicle or engine from its configuration certified at the time it was manufactured. Alternative fuel conversion systems alter one or more of these original configurations to allow the engine and vehicle to operate on an alternative fuel. The new rules passed by the EPA make it easier for manufacturers to change necessary components without violating the Clean Air Act.
With the new rule, manufacturers of fuel conversion systems will be able to qualify for an exemption from the EPA to tamper with existing vehicle configurations if they show that the converted vehicle and engine still satisfies EPA's emissions standards. The reporting and approval procedures differ based on the age of the vehiclenew, intermediate age or outside useful life. Newer and intermediate age vehicles are streamlined for approval faster than those vehicles deemed to have exceeded their useful life. However, conversions are possible for all vehicles regardless of the year they were manufactured.
Keeping in line with President Obama's Jan. 18, 2011, executive order directing agencies to find and consider new regulatory approaches that reduce burdens and maintain flexibility and freedom of choice for the public, EPA's new rules will reduce some economic and procedural impediments to cleaner alternative fuel conversions. Meanwhile, the new options maintain environmental safeguards to ensure that emissions are kept within acceptable levels.
To learn more about EPA's new rule, see this Fact Sheet. To search for certified clean alternative fuel conversion systems that the EPA has approved, use the Document Index System, select "Certificates of Conformity" and then select "Alternative Fuel Conversions." Detailed search instructions are available in EPA's October 2010 guidance letter for fuel converters.

The extended NAT tests are a collection of tests that require raw sockets or take much more time than the usual NAT tests. To run the test you need:
- A Linux PC with a mobile broadband modem (USB or integrated).
- Python 2, python-scapy and python-netifaces installed
- Agree to run the client as root
Some notes about the client and the measurements:
- The client adds an iptables rule to block the TCP RST messages from the Linux kernel. The rule is removed again after the experiments.
- The complete tests take around 3,5 hours and generate traffic up to 40 MB
- You can limit the duration of the timeout test, which takes by default one hour.
- There is a test that opens 213 UDP and TCP connections, which must be enabled explicitly.
- The result is a JSON file that contains all details from the experiments. A evaluation script will be available soon.
To run the tests, download the client here and unpack it:
$ unzip extended-nattests.zip $ cd extended-nattests
You need to know the interface name of your modem, use
ip a to get it. As mentioned before you can disable or restrict some tests:
Short timeout test without port space exhaustion test
The timeout test takes only 10 minutes now:
$ sudo python client.py -i ppp0 -s 188.8.131.52 --max-timeout 10
Normal timeout test without port space exhaustion test
The timeout test takes 60 minutes by default:
$ sudo python client.py -i ppp0 -s 220.127.116.11
With port space exhaustion test
The port space exhaustion test open 213 UDP and TCP connections.
$ sudo python client.py -i ppp0 -s 184.108.40.206 --enable-port-exhaustion
Submitting the results
After the tests are finished, you get the file
result.json. Please send this file to hertle (at) in.tum.de and also add the name of your ISP. Thank you!

Sammamish Arts Commission to Present:Don Fels: Vanishing PointsJanuary 19, – April 14, 2016
Sammamish, WA – The Sammamish Arts Commission is pleased to present the art of internationally acclaimed visual artist Donald Fels in an exhibition titled Vanishing Points. The works to be displayed in the Commons Gallery in the Sammamish City Hall, will provide a history lesson gleaned from World War II with a personal connection and will demonstrate a remarkable collaborative artistic process. Also on view will be ten collage works made from the many traditional paper posters and announcements found lining the streets of Southern Europe and India. He has repurposed the patterns and imagery from the paper to create compelling abstract collages with an aura of far-off places. The exhibit will be on view January 19 through April 14, 2016. A reception and discussion for the exhibit will be held Thursday, January 28, 2016 from 6:00-8:00pm in the Commons Gallery.
In 2008 while working in Southern India, Don Fels reconnected with family history involving his father's WWII experience as a pilot flying "the Hump," as the heroic China-Burma-India airlift became known. Planes crammed with cargo were flown by courageous pilots over high, misty, and icy peaks where the fatality rate was nearly fifty percent. Vanishing Points is both a personal history with generational connections and a linking of the artistic talents of Fels, the artist with the billboard painters of Cochin. The story has moved on to another generation – Fels' son Benjamin who at the time was the same age as his grandfather when he began historic and dangerous flights. Materials used in this exhibit – the 4' x4' painted aluminum panel format – shares a striking material affinity with the skins of the aircraft flown by Fels' father.
Donald Fels is active in the U.S., Europe and Asia. He holds a B.A. in Art, History and Literature from Wesleyan University, and an M.A. Ed. with Honors from City University where he was the Board of Governor's Presidential Scholar. He also studied at the San Francisco Art Institute and the University of Washington. Fels has been a Fulbright Fellow to Italy and a Fulbright Senior Research Scholar to India. He has twice received funding from the National Endowment for the Arts. He is a grant recipient of the Jack Straw Foundation, 4Culture, Artist Trust, the Ferguson Foundation, the Goodfellow Foundation, the Washington Council on the Humanities, the Ella West Freeman Foundation and the Northwest Institute for Architecture and Urban Studies in Italy. He was a Whiteley Fellow at the University of Washington Friday Harbor Marine Biology Laboratory from 2002-06. Fels has received multiple grants and commissions from Seattle area arts commissions. His work can be found in regional, national and international collections. The Washington State Arts Commission has recently purchased an entire series of Fels' paintings completed in South India, for permanent installation at University of Washington Tacoma Honors College.
Fels has inaugurated artist residencies at and for many institutions, he has written about art and culture for numerous publications including The Seattle Times, The San Francisco Chronicle and the Los Angeles Times. He serves as a Trustee for the Henry Art Gallery and exhibits regularly at the Davidson Gallery in Seattle. Donald Fels' website: www.artisthinker.com
The Sammamish Arts Commission offers a year-round series of exhibitions in the City Hall Commons Gallery with a primary focus on regional artists. Arts Commission information web site: www3.sammamish.us/Group.aspx?ID=3, Follow Us on Facebook and Twitter: Sammamish Arts Commission
Sammamish City Hall is located high atop the Sammamish Plateau, at the intersection of 228th Ave. SE and SE 8th Street. Exhibition is on view during regular City Hall hours Monday – Friday 8:30am – 5:00pm. Directions can be found on the City web site: www.ci.sammamish.wa.us.

Saved By The Bell Building
I love a good historical relic, but having a purpose for it is even better.
So, I'm not too happy with my Alma matter Georgia State University. It isn't the school I remember going to, and it certainly isn't heading in the direction of a truly "urban campus" like I had originally imagined before attending. Case in point: Georgia State has slated to demolish the Bell Building at the corner of Auburn and Equitable Place for construction of…….a parking lot. (Thunderclap)
If this isn't one of the most asinine uses for a school with over 12 parking decks near the center of EVERY piece of transit in this region??!!! Either the transportation team is absolutely blind to these mass transit uses, or the student and faculty at this supposedly fine institution is just too good to ride the bus home. MARTA literally began HERE. In the last two weeks, Downtown Atlanta looked as red as Cumberland will look in 2017 mainly because Georgia State still perpetuates the commuter school mentality that driving is the best way to get Downtown. Also, they subsidize heavily on parking just as much as they do transit. So why doesn't the latter win?
Now, on to the Bell Building itself. If you haven't heard, there is a campaign going on to save it. The link to sign it is below. I will admit that while being one of the first to sign it, I was also one of the first to question it. We've been down this road with the Trio Laundry building and it is still vacated to this day. I hope the same lax attitude doesn't follow with those wanting to save the Bell Building, as I've only seen a rendering but not a single specific suggestion on what to put here. This is where I hope the historic preservationists (wherever you are) don't resort to crickets when asked to provide an EXACT plan for the building given Georgia State wishes to hear you out.
Both Georgia State and the Save the Bell campaign need to consider the transit benefit of this building. Its location has prime connections to MARTA, Streetcar, GRTA, CCT, GCT, what have you. If both parties can look at how these modes can help reduce the vehicular traffic in Downtown as a whole, they can work towards a better purpose of utilizing more sustainable travel modes and encouraging historic preservation and adaptive reuse in Atlanta. If not, both will be still be fighting for something they can never obtain.
If you asked me, I would love a multi-story Target Express with condos above. See? That wasn't so bad.

Interesting & appreciated criticism. I'll mull this over. The great thing about this building is that zoning allows most anything to go here. It's something that's worth highlighting for sure.
