Driver availability declines
Nov 15, 2005 8:20 AM
Driver labor availability fell in October for the first time since June of this year with the largest decline since January 2005, according to FTR Associates, Nashville IN.
The availability of labor for the truck industry declined in the period primarily because of the strong hiring environment for the same pool of individuals in the construction and manufacturing industries.
Truck share of employment, which is a measure of supply and demand, reached its second highest level on record in the third quarter of 2005, suggesting that it remains extremely difficult to hire and retain drivers.
The monthly report looks at supply and demand issues as well as how freight and broader labor markets all affect the pool of available drivers. The ability to put drivers in vehicles has a major impact on individual fleet and industry expansion plans.

1. | Zipper Ripper | ||
1 - (n) A woman who is so hot she causes men to develop an erection so hard it tears right through the front of their pants often blowing out the zipper in the process. 2 - (n) An erection that tears through the front of your pants. 1- Did you see the hot girl in the Fiat Superbowl commercial?!? She is a total zipper ripper.
2 - When Stacy took her clothes off last night I was so turned on I developed a zipper ripper. |
2. | Zipper Ripper | ||
When you break wind and the sound that is made is very reminiscent of pulling on a zipper. As you control your flatulence, you can speed up or slow down the quickness of the zipper sound to make it sound like you are pulling the zipper faster or slower which causes those around you to giggle more. 1. It sounded as if someone had unzipped something until the smell hit me and I knew it was a "zipper ripper".
2. Before I unpacked my luggage, I had to pass gas and as I let it rip, I forced it out quicker giving it a quick unzipping sound, a "zipper ripper", and then unzipped my suitcase and laughed at how similar they both sounded. |

Indians celebrate Dussehra
New Delhi, Oct 6 (ANI): The festival of Dussehra, which symbolizes the victory of good over evil, is being celebrated through out the country today.
President Pratibha Devisingh Patil, Vice President Mohammad Hamid Ansari and Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh have greeted the people on the occasion.
President Patil said the festival should motivate people to work whole-heartedly for the nation.
In his message, Ansari wished the festival would bring peace, prosperity and joy to the citizens of the country.
Dr. Singh said, the festival is an inspiration for leading a life of righteous action. He expressed the hope that Durga Puja and Dussehra would usher peace, prosperity and happiness for all.
In the months of Ashwin and Kartik, Hindus observe a 10-day ceremony of fast, rituals, celebrations and feasts to honor the Mother Goddess and the triumph of Lord Rama over the demon king Ravana.
Dussehra also symbolizes the triumph of the warrior Goddess Durga over the buffalo demon Mahishasura.
The effigies of Ravana, his son Meghnada and his brother Kumbhakarna will be consigned to flames, while idols of the Goddess Durga will be water. (ANI)

The Culture of Celebratory Worship
General Assembly 2007 Event 4039
Presenters: Rev. Sofia Betancourt, Rev. John Crestwell, Rev. Jason Shelton, Rev. Leslie Takahashi Morris
This workshop focused on cultural appropriation and misappropriation, especially as seen from the perspective of minority cultures. The Rev. Sofia Betancourt began by defining the words.
Cultural appropriation happens when a group of people use customs, folklore, or traditions from another group of people. This definition is neutral; it carries no judgment.
Cultural misappropriation happens when there is a danger of the appropriation being misrepresented, or is done without a willingness to engage in the struggles or pain that may lie behind the custom.
The panelists emphasized this is a complex issue. Incorporating different traditions is complex and making sense of them is never easy. Furthermore, there are important differences between the dominant culture and minorities, between the privileged and those who are less so. For example, when someone misunderstand or misinterpret Bach's music, the pain caused will be relatively small, even to lovers of Bach. However, when the dominant culture misuses music that is rooted in the pain of slavery, it can evoke far more intense pain. A key test is: are people willing to engage the issues? And even if people are, the result can still be a painful experience for people who have felt oppressed.
There are no easy answers; questions lead to more questions. People may have good intentions, and then someone says "Ouch!" At this stage people need to stop, acknowledge and understand the pain they have caused, and learn from the experience.
The Rev. Leslie Takahashi Morris described two experiences, one successful, one less so. A year ago, she led a Shinto New Year service, and in doing so felt deeply connected to her Japanese roots. Furthermore, she felt she was honoring her father who, when he emerged from an internment camp at the end of World War II, felt he should deny all things Japanese.
A less successful experience occurred when a committee adopted a slogan that was apparently a quotation from the Hopi. Was this misappropriation? In order to know, she would need to know the context of the original quote. Was it sacred? No one seemed to know.
The Rev. Jason Shelton described a similar experience with using a traditional Muscogee (Creek) Indian song. He did some research and found a complex history full of ambivalence. Finally, the issue was settled for him when a choir member said she was a Creek Indian and wanted to sing the song because it would help her connect with her own roots.
The panelists agreed that it would not be helpful if every UU church phoned the Hopi elders to engage them in long dialogs of cultural understanding. Hopefully, those of us who know can share the relevant information with others. For this purpose, UUA staff are considering the possibility of a Wiki site that could be used to share this sort of information.
The Rev. John Crestwell pointed out that misappropriation of music is especially sensitive because music has a way of stirring up emotions. He admitted that, like most of us, he occasionally misuses African-American songs; nevertheless he feels angry when an all-white church misuses an African-American song, especially when no context is provided and there is little attempt to understand the context.
Shelton told of an occasion when he casually started to play "Glory, Glory, Hallelujah." Then, when ministers of color began to look at him uncomfortably, he realized he had not established the sort of relationship with them that would give him the right to evoke such painful associations. He realized that one cannot just assume that everything in a new place is "just like it is back home." Crestwell responded, "At first, I did not know Jason, I did not know if he understood. Now I know him, I feel differently." Music, he said, is emotionally powerful.
In response to a question from Rev. Fred Small, the panelists re-affirmed that the issues are complex and we are all going to make mistakes. We need to be humble and do the best we can to raise our own awareness. Nobody is suggesting we should avoid the issues.
Crestwell summarized as follows. "We should engage the issues until we master them; then Unitarian Universalists will be an example for all the world to see."

President Obama beats Mitt Romney to win re-election
- Last Updated: 6:06 PM, November 7, 2012
- Posted: 2:55 AM, November 7, 2012
CHICAGO—President Obama scored a big victory in his reelection battle last night, repelling a tough challenge from Mitt Romney with a Rust Belt "firewall" and hanging on to much of his 2008 coalition despite the nations' tough economic times.
A jubilant Obama greeted his supporters in Chicago early this morning.
» Joy at Obama's Chicago HQ
» Editorial: Obama's second term
» Obama wins female vote
» Gillibrand wins big, Dems keep US Senate
» Photos: Sandy victims head to the polls
"While our journey has been long, we have picked ourselves up, we have crawled our way back, and we know in our hearts for the United States of America the best is yet to come," Obama told a screaming crowd of about 10,000 supporters.
Obama said he congratulated Romney on a "hard-fought campaign," and said he looked forward to sitting down with his Republican rival "to talk about where we can work together to move this country forward."
After a bitter campaign, Romney was gracious in defeat.
"This is a time of great challenges for America and I pray that the president will be successful in guiding our nation," Romney said as he conceded to his disappointed supporters in Boston.

Do you know how many judges serve on the Supreme Court, how many amendments the Constitution has, or even what an amendment is? These are just three out of 100 questions that individuals who take the naturalization test must know to become a citizen of the United States.
By the way, there are nine Supreme Court justices and 27 amendments. An amendment is a change or addition to the Constitution.
"We had a mini United Nations last year." – Dr. Dennis Pope
Fulfilling a need
In 2010, 619,913 people became naturalized in the United States, according to the Department of Homeland Security. The five states with the largest number of individuals that became citizens that year lived in California (129,354), New York (67,972), Florida (67,484), Texas (46,699), and New Jersey (33,864).
With 36 years of experience as a professor of political science, Pope, who is retired, has taught a range of students from diverse backgrounds. He earned his doctorate in American government and constitutional law from Rutgers University and held positions at Kean, Drew, Farleigh Dickinson and William Paterson Universities.
He noticed that a number of his students, most recently from Middlesex County College, would come up to him after taking his American government course to let him know that they had taken and passed the naturalization test. He wondered last year if Secaucus residents planning to become citizens could benefit from a similar type of course.
A mini-United Nations
"Actually Dennis, to his credit, last year said, 'Do you think anyone would be interested in citizenship classes and I'd be willing to teach it at a good price,' " said Louise Rittberg, literacy coordinator for the library.
Rittberg noted that some of the foreign-born students who come in for one-on-one tutoring for the literacy program are also interested in becoming a U.S. citizen.
"I've known Dennis Pope for many years and was very pleased when he offered his time to the Literacy Program as a one-to-one tutor," she said. "I gratefully acknowledge him for taking on the added responsibility of volunteering to share his knowledge and expertise with those preparing for the Citizenship Test."
Last January, over 20 residents took advantage of these same classes to learn what to expect on the test and how to prepare for it.
"We had a mini United Nations last year," said Pope. "People from Central America, South America, the Caribbean…we have people who were from Korea, Vietnam, Indian, and Pakistan."
The ethnic make-up of the students that take the Secaucus class is consistent with the backgrounds of the largest groups pursuing citizenship in the U.S. In 2010, nationwide, the highest number of new American citizens came from Mexico, (67,062), India (61,142), the Philippines (35,465), the People's Republic of China (33,969), and Vietnam (19,313).
Understanding what it means to be American
"It is not strictly a prep program," said Pope about the class.
Pope said he covers the Constitution in depth with a particular emphasis on the Bill of Rights. He said the goal of the class is to familiarize individuals with the rudiments of American government.
"The way for [the students] to learn it is not memorization but to understand [the material]," said Pope. "I go into all the elements of free speech with them."
Updated materials
Rittberg noted that the library has updated all its materials that relate to preparing for citizenship. "There are three Citizenship and Civics 'tool kits' that have everything you need," she said, "as well as book/CD sets titled Literacy Skills, Civics and Literacy and Ready for the Interview. A library card is all you need to open the door to learning."
The course currently has 15 students enrolled and has five open spaces.
The classes are free to resident library patrons. Those interested may contact Rittberg at email@example.com or can apply in person. For more information, call (201) 330-2083.
Class size will be limited to 20 students and offered to Secaucus residents first. A waiting list of non-residents will be kept and they will be invited to join the classes as space permits.

Regional Economic Outlook for Sub-Saharan Africa
Economic conditions in sub-Saharan Africa have remained generally robust despite a sluggish global economy. The near-term outlook for the region remains broadly positive, and growth is projected at 5� percent a year in 2012�13. Most low-income countries are projected to continue to grow strongly, supported by domestic demand, including from investment. The outlook is less favorable for many of the middle-income countries, especially South Africa, that are more closely linked to European markets and thus experience a more noticeable drag from the external environment. The main risks to the outlook are an intensification of financial stresses in the euro zone and a sharp fiscal adjustment in the US�the so called fiscal cliff.

Further information

Important information
In north-east Japan: The FDFA advises against any type of stay or stop-over in the zones designated by the Japanese authorities as evacuation and exclusion zones around the damaged Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear power plant (cf. following section "Damaged nuclear power plant Fukushima-Daiichi").
The data in the description of the danger zones is approximate since the risks cannot be confined to clearly outlined areas.
Further information: FDFA travel advice (in German / in French / in Italian)
The earthquake and resultant tsunami severely damaged the Fukushima-Daiichi nuclear power plant. A series of explosions in the plant destroyed the external walls of several reactor blocks causing radioactive substances to leak out.
Emergency procedures are in place and people have been evacuated from an area within a 20 km radius of Fukushima-Daiichi. The Japanese authorities have also ordered protective measures for those within a radius of 20-30 km. In addition, the authorities have decided to extend the evacuation zone beyond the original 20 km zone for certain areas (Deliberate Evacuation Areas) in which the population will have been exposed to a radiation dosage exceeding 20 mSv by March 2012. The municipalities affected by this are Katsurao, Namie, Iitate, and parts of Kawamata and Minami-Soma. To a certain part, these municipalities extend up to 40 km in a north-west direction from the nuclear power plant Fukushima-Daiichi. The 20 km zone surrounding the Fukushima-Daiichi plant has been turned into an exclusion zone. In other adjacent areas, the authorities have recommend that those persons living in certain spots at which a dosage of over 20 mSv is said to have been accumulated (so-called "Specific Spots Recommended for Evacuation", e.g., in the community of Date), observe special precautionary measures or leave the area in question. A large-scale radiation-measurement operation has begun, covering an area within a radius of over 100 km around Fukushima-Daiichi, for the purpose of indentifying any possible additional such spots lying beyond the current evacuation zones.
On 16 December 2011, the Japanese supervisory authority NISA announced that a state of cold shutdown had been reached. This means that in the view of NISA the reactors are in a safe condition. The danger that large amounts of radioactivity could be released has been reduced further.
The National Emergency Operations Centre (NAZ) in Switzerland regularly publishes its most recent assessment of the nuclear situation on its website (in German/French/Italian): National Emergency Operations Centre - Federal Office for Civil Protection FOCP
A leaflet regarding the radiological situation and safety measures for Swiss citizens in Japan is available under:
Leaflet regarding the radiological situation and safety measures (pdf, 122 Kb)
Please note that the leaflet is for information only and that information and instructions provided by the Japanese authorities prevail.
The situation at all other initially affected nuclear power plants is considered stable at the moment.
In the latter half of March 2011, the levels of radioactive iodine in drinking water in the Tokyo metropolitan area and the prefectures of Chiba, Fukushima, Ibaraki, Saitama, and Tochigi temporarily exceeded the threshold considered safe for infants. In the meanwhile, these levels dropped below the threshold in all of the initially affected areas, so that currently no restrictions apply for the consumption of tap water.
The Japanese government regularly tests food products for radioactive contamination, especially in the prefectures which were affected by the nuclear fallout. Food products which exceed the strict Japanese thresholds are banned by the authorities from entering the market.

text: Hi, I have some trouble with decoding Video and Audio at the same time... Video alone is no problem, but I don't know how I should do the audio part.. The problem is, I need the Video and Audio seperated.. I can't just use av_read_frame() in a loop and check each time if it's audio or video and then decode it. I have one loop for the video, where I'm using av_read_frame() and then am checking if this is my videoStream. (like in this tutorial: http://www.inb.uni-luebeck.de/~boehme/using_libavcodec.html) But, when I'm doing the same for the Audio anything screws up.. :( It seems as if, when I use av_read_frame() in the audio-loop, it also skips some videoframes... but the only thing both loops are using is the AVFormatContext. (each loop has an own AVCodec, AVCodecContext and AVPacket) To explain what I need: Let's say I have a Video of 10 seconds... now I want to grab the Videostream of the first 5 secs, and the Audiostream of the last 5 secs... the resulting video should now be 5 secs long.. hard to explain, do you know what I mean? Kind regards, Aya~ PS: when I use avcodec_decode_audio, the result will be raw PCM audio, right? If so, how do I determine the SampleRate, Channelcount and BitsPerSample?

OPINION: Help put Michigan back to work by hiring a recent grad or a returning vet
Michigan's powerful are meeting on Mackinac Island this week.
The annual watering hole gathering of Michigan's top civic, business, labor, education, government, political and foundation elite began Tuesday and runs through Thursday.
The 2012 Detroit Regional Chamber's Mackinac Policy Conference will draw up to 1,500 of Michigan's "movers and shakers" to the island famous for its fudge and its ban on motor vehicles. They will eat, drink and mingle on the world's largest porch at the Grand Hotel to gab about the state's problems and opportunities.

Henry Ford once said, "Before everything else, getting ready is the secret of success." Ford was right and the business community has a responsibility to help ready our state and nation by helping to put people back to work.
Today, we live in a fast-paced, disruptive, transformational, technologically-driven, knowledge economy where ideas and jobs can and do move around the globe effortlessly. Michigan lost nearly a million jobs in the previous decade and we need to accelerate the hiring process to get Michigan working again.
There is a Chinese proverb that says, "Don't curse the darkness, light the candle."
So rather than cursing the lack of employees, consider hiring and training the unemployed vet, high school or college grad actively looking for work.
By hiring, training and mentoring, we will be lighting the way to the future. Putting someone to work not only puts money and experience in their pocket, it also benefits our entire community.
During the most recent economic downturn, many people have been deprived of the opportunity to be employed through no fault of their own.
But as the economy picks up steam, if businesses were to make a concerted effort to hire, collectively it could make a huge difference for them and our state and country.
With massive deficits at the local and federal levels, it is unlikely that governments will fill the void to create youth employment opportunities. It is time for businesses to step up hiring.
"Don't find fault, find a remedy" is another Henry Ford quote we might all be wise to follow.
Today, we have the power to prepare our future workforce while strengthening our communities and state.

Geeky Giveaway: BadAss on blu ray!
Last Updated on Wednesday, 6 June 2012 01:02 Written by LoganDX Thursday, 31 May 2012 05:30
Winner picked, check thy emails geeks!
The beard has become real! Anybody who's ever seen the Epic Beard Man video on Youtube might be surprised to find out it was turned into a movie. Okay, inspired a movie if you want to be technical. The movie is real and it stars perpetual badass, Danny Trejo. Mr. Machete himself takes on the gangs, the baddies and the corrupt cops in the city that had forsaken him years ago upon his return from Vietnam. Now his new found fame prompts him to find the killer of his best friend since those crooked cops won't. And maybe clean up the city while he's at it.
Kicking criminal butts and taking the law into his own hands, Danny Trejo (Machete, "Sons of Anarchy") ignites the screen in the gritty, violent and enthralling film Bad Ass. Inspired by the viral video of a vigilante citizen taking action into his own hands, Bad Ass also stars Ron Perlman ("Sons of Anarchy," Hellboy) and Charles S. Dutton (Alien 3). Bad Ass tells the story of decorated Vietnam hero, Frank Vega, who returns home only to be shunned by society. It's not until 40 years later when an incident on a commuter bus makes him a local hero and he's suddenly celebrated once again. But his good fortune ends when his best friend, Klondike, is murdered and the police aren't doing anything about it.
Nothing can really top a full tilt action flick with Danny Trejo crushing skulls and blowing crap up! Grab a couple buds, some tasty refreshments and a bucket of popcorn then sit back to watch the craziness unfold. Hit the break to shoot in some entries as well as check out more films that looked too fake to be true.

Adult stem cells help Alzheimer's
A recent study seems to show that stem cells derived from umbilical cords can help treat Alzheimer's in mice. Next stem, humans.
Scientists have found that targeted immune suppression using stem cells derived from human umbilical cord blood may reduce the progression of Alzheimer's disease, according to a new study published in the March issue of Stem Cells and Development.
For the study, researchers had administered a series of low-dose infusions of umbilical cord blood cells into mice with abnormalities mimicking Alzheimer's disease, according to a Mar. 27 news release by Cryo-Cell International, Inc., which funded the study. Alzheimer's disease is a progressive and incurable brain disease that affects more than five million people in the United States alone.
According to the organization's announcement, researchers found that the two main markers of Alzheimer's progression in the brain were reduced as a result of the infusions – myloid-beta proteins by 62 percent and cerebral amyloid angiopathy by 86 percent.
"The scientific community has only skimmed the surface in uncovering the many potential therapeutic uses for cord blood stem cells, and this new research in Alzheimer's disease may pave the way for discoveries around the use of these cells for a host of neurodegenerative and other chronic conditions," stated Mercedes Walton, chairman and CEO of Cryo-Cell International.

2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart Review
Prosfun and practical sporty ride that can haul baby around if needed, and still race those annoying civics and cavaliers Consexhaust rattle from factory, non mp3 cd player, Mivec engine loses power/torque when it should boost it-
2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart. — I bought this car after checking the competition (over and over) All cars have highs and lows but price was right and it came well loaded. This car is versatile with 4 doors and large trunk. It also caters to the compact sports car owner. It has euro inspired tail lights, it handles like a lowered car yet the ride is bearable. The torque out put of the engine is very impressive @ lower speeds (compared to many imports that may have more horsepower but only useable higher RPM's.) This car is really fun to drive. It has 163hp and same for torque. The gearing is low it really throws you back in 1st/2nd and I rarely take it out of 3rd in the city because @ 50Km's it still takes off. It has a small gas tank and the most I get is 480km's per tank. More like 280km's in the city with a moderate lead foot. I put some low profile tires and rims on mine and it makes it a handfull on uneven roads. This car is relatively easy to maintain and has caused little reason for concern. I've driven the 08' generation and the new Lancer is better equipped (GT) and it's a great looking car but the engine lacks power and sounds tinny. It's a Hyundai,Mitsu,Daimler -Chrysler venture.... chassis and all. I haven't driven the new Evo nor the new Ralliart that's to come but the Price jumps. I prefer the old ralliart that is fun to drive over the similarly priced "bluetooth ready,heated seat,stereo with hard drive, blah blah blah, 08' Lancer". (none were built for 07')

ProsFun to drive ConsNaturally aspirated
Its A Good Vehicle, And For Daily Driving Is Totally Recommended. — Acceleration is strong for a n/a engine. Brakes work well, so does the e-brake :D. Handles well with some understeer, to be expected from FWD. No repairs needed yet. Good looking exterior, and comfortable interior, but by no means luxurious. Gets good fuel mileage, a tank will go about 400 km give or take, depending on how its driven, and only takes 45 bucks to fill on high octane. Its fun to drive, recommended if you are looking for a sporty, economical, relialbe 4 door. Primary Use: Commuting to work | ||

ProsVery fun and nimble. ConsFront Wheel Drive
Needs One More Gear. — Although this car is front wheel drive there are some options out there to make those front wheels deadly to drive. Not to many companies out there make modifications for it. This car is a middle ground between the evolution and the base lancer. A little higher prices but can be talked down. Primary Use: Sport/fun (spirited driving, track racing, off-roading, etc.) | ||

ProsHorsepower, Torque, Maintenance, Ease of Ownership ConsN/A
Impeccable — I love my 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Ralliart. I have had it for over two years and it had one owner before me. I have no negatives for it other than the fact the FWD is dangerous in the rain/snow. I have had no problems with it other than a battery that needed to be replaced after 50k miles anyway. I rated the car by comparison to other cars of the same class. | ||

Church leaders have given their backing to a report by MPs which challenges the government's proposals to replace the Trident nuclear missile system.
The need for churches to be vigilant about nuclear proliferation has been stressed by the World Council of Churches (WCC) executive committee in a statement adopted at its 27 February - 2 March meeting in Bossey, near Geneva.
The Church of England yesterday strengthened its opposition to the renewal of the Trident nuclear deterrent.
Up to 50,000 demonstrators took to the streets in London and Glasgow today (Saturday 24 February 2007) to call for an end to the war in Iraq, a non-military resolution of tensions involving Iran, and the scrapping of Britain's nuclear deterrent. Church leaders and Christians were among the protestors.
With a critical UK parliamentary vote due in March 2007 on the issue of the replacement of the Trident nuclear weapons system, Christians marked Ash Wednesday (the beginning of the annual Lenten season of repentance) by gathering in Central London today to make known their opposition to Britain's possession of weapons of mass destruction.
Well-known thespian Emma Thompson and Anglican Bishop of Southwark Tom Butler are among 100 public figures spanning the arts, science, politics, academia, the churches and civic life who have joined together to oppose Prime Minister Tony Blair's plans to spend vast amounts of money on replacing Britain's Trident nuclear fleet.
The Church of England's General Synod is to be debate the Government's proposals to replace the Trident nuclear weapons system, as well as the crisis in Britain's prisons, it was announced yesterday.
The large numbers of Christians who will be joining the anti-Trident nuclear weapons demonstration in London on 24 February 2007 are being invited to an ecumenical service beforehand. Hinde Street Methodist Church - just north of the famous Oxford Street shopping centre - will host the gathering for worship at 10.30 AM.

Whichever building(s) is selected for the Project, the goal is to achieve LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environment) certification, which will help keep operating expenses low and will serve as a model for sustainable downtown redevelopment. The raw space will have a "cool and clean" feel, with polished original flooring (likely concrete or wood), white drywall partitions and exposed ductwork ceilings. The opportunity will be given to the tenants to make their space vibrant. Special consideration will be given to artist needs, including natural light, wide hallways and accessibility.
Space Allocation
The Project floor plans will have four components:
Des Moines Social Club / Public Space
- Lounge, restaurant and coffee shop
- Blackbox theater
- Large gallery space (with skywalk and/or street level access)
- Public function spaces with potential for rooftop access
Arts-related Non-profit Space
- Office suites of various sizes (sizes can be configured per user's request)
- Classrooms
- Conference rooms
- Break area
- Resource room (including shared copiers, printers, etc.)
- Shared administration services (if demand proven)
Artist Studios (non-residential)
- Target of 100+ studios of various sizes (sizes can be configured per user's request)
- Studios can be shared
- Natural light
- Polished floors
- 7.5 foot-high white drywall partitions (higher walls would be considered)
- Ceilings with exposed ductwork
- Common areas decorated by artists
Arts-related Specialty Spaces (if demand proven)
- Recording studio
- Rehearsal space / dance studio
- Video production facility
- Kiln
- Dark room
- Set production / woodworking shop
- Basement storage
Floor Plans and Pricing
The Project will aim to accommodate artists and arts organizations with a variety of floor plan options. Standard rental pricing for artist studios is targeted at an annual $7.00 per square foot, plus utilities (for example, a 347 square foot studio would cost $202/month plus utilities – see Artist Studios representative floor plan for other price examples). Pricing for arts-related non-profit space is targeted at an annual $7.00 per square foot, plus utilities and common area usage. Alternate pricing plans will be available for specialty arts spaces and additional build-out. Premiums will be charged to those requiring special units or features. Studios may be shared by two or more artists.

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; because there is not effort without error and shortcomings; but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
dont let other haters bring you down bcz their jealous their team wasnt in the superbowl and isnt as good as the steelers. so we lost, as Arnold once said: "I'll be back"

I didn't buy much, as I can't see the point at the moment, and luckily there was nothing i really liked in Myer or DJ's.
Target did however provide me with a number of singlets for $8. For that price, if they only last a month I don't care! Not fashion related, but I saw a clock in Real Living the other day I liked, but it wasnt credited ( ). I found it in Freedom today whilst wandering around for $39, reduced from $89. -------------------- |

39.278051 -76.612678 View WebsiteNix the shrimp salad. WHile most of the food is acceptable or good, don't waste your money on the shrimp salad. It had nice, large shrimp but they were absoulutely tasteless. I saw, or tasted, NO evidence of Old Bay or any other seasoning.
Service / Food / Atmosphere *****. What a GREAT find! Best Chicken Gumbo on the East Coast.Stopped in on a Tuesday and was treated like a Queen by Co-Owner Sandi.Actually, her husband Allen was equally as charming.I've found my home.
Z best crabcake in the city. Group of four had brunch on a football Sunday. Enjoyed homemade complimentary muffins and spicy bloddy mary's along with a white peach beleni. Menu was very creative with unique and tasty omelets, two of us had crab cake sandwiches which were amazing with boardwalk style fries. Friend told me dinner was just as good. Going back for sure
In a neighborhood where good food isn't unusual, one quintessential Federal Hill pub-restaurant offers upscale entrees and martinis galore..
In Short
Enclosed within the tiny confines of twin row houses built in the 1860s, the eatery exudes a laid-back vibe. Exposed brick walls and polished hardwood floors greet diners as they travel through the bar to the dining room with its large storefront window and original, antique marble fireplace. The menu is an eclectic mix of comfort foods (like lamb chops and burgers) and a healthy assortment of salads. Martinis are a Regi's specialty--a separate menu boasts 23 items to be shaken, not stirred.
Not worth the wait. We ordered salads...the tables next to us were seated 15 minutes later than we were and received their dished 15 minutes sooner. Our waiter had no explanation. He kept assuring us that it was coming right out. Once we got the salads, they weren't anything special. It's a salad! I would not return to Regi's, especially if I'm hungry.

FBV Shortboard MkII help
Like (0)
I am trying to use my FBV Shortboard MkII to control Waves GTR3. The FBV isn't showing up as a MIDI device in GTR3 OR in Windows. I've completely updated everything using the latest version of Monkey. The FBV is showing up as an Audio device. ??? Weird.
Device type: It shows up as a Sound, video and game controller.
Manufacturer: (Generic USB Audio)
Location: Location 0 (FBV Shortboard MkII)
How do I get this thing to show up as a MIDI device?
Windows XP with all the latest updates.
The FBV Shortboard MkII will show up as an audio device in Device Manager. I think that's just the way the computer recognizes the class compliant driver. So that's normal.
Can you get the FBV to show up as a MIDI device in any other applications?
Perhaps you could try downloading the demo of POD Farm 2 for iLok and see if it will control that?
Also, have you mapped the Shortboard at all using the FBV Control software?
Stay in the mix and in the know.

A national newspaper wrote an article about our product and included a link to our site. I'm sure that's a good thing, but what exactly are the benefits to our site when they use a no follow?
You still have the benefits of traffic for your site and visibility, and people who see the article may also write about you and include followed links.
Regardless of what google may say, having a nofollow link to your site does pass credibility to you. So having a link from a national newspaper is a big win.
I wouldn't worry too much that it's a no-follow. In my experience, if it's from a great source, it makes little difference. You should still get value from it
I agree with Shelly. No follow is simply a hey we are not vouching for this external website. Google still follows no follow it just doesn't pass the page juice. It certainly is a good lead mechanism and if they syndicate then you may even have more than one link. I would applaud yourself and keep on moving forward.
