Dead Space from Electronic Arts is set to hit the US iTunes App Store sometime later today in both iPhone and iPad versions. TiPb got a sneak preview so let's just give you the goods right now. If you couldn't guess from the title it's a space survival/horror shooter with absolutely gorgeous graphics and even better sound and atmosphere. The mood is just perfect and transitions from casual, almost monotonous getting-to-know-the-controls early missions to OMFG-what's-eating-my-face action with heart-stopping abruptness.
Controls are about as good as can be expected for a mulitouch device though I did once in a while have trouble picking something up as opposed to shooting. If you're familiar with other first-person shooters on iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad you'll feel right at home.
Dead Space isn't on rails; you walk where you want to walk, blast what you want to blast. You do have a guidance mechanism to show you the way, however, which minimizes the frustration of truly open environments.
Like I mentioned at the beginning, it's not a universal app so you can buy it just for iPhone/iPod touch (and framed on iPad) or you can buy Dead Space HD for the big screen iPad experience. (When you do buy Dead Space for iPhone or iPad and register the game, you'll get a special unlock for Dead Space 2 for Xbox 360, PS3, and PC.)
Unfortunately, like most other separate iPhone/iPad games, there's no way to sync progress between platforms so if you get pretty far on the iPhone on the bus, you probably won't want to switch to the iPad and keep going on the sofa. Pity.
Overall Dead Space reaffirms that we've just entered the next great generation of iOS gaming. It looks great, it sounds great, and it's a ton of fun.
Video up top and screen shots after the break. If you check it out, let us know what you think.

Check the tie rod ends and where the tie rods go into the center steering arm. You may can tighten the seats in the tie rod ends and center arm. Don't get them too tight or it will bind. Most of your wear is in the center steering box. The sector gear is probably slipping on the shaft, and the center rod may be slipping as well.

Moving To Work In The Bay Area
September 9, 2013

Low-income workers face multiple barriers to advancement Moving to Work examines the critical role of transit - as well as development clustered around transit (TOD) - in linking low-income communities with career-ladder opportunities Reconnecting America with Urban Habitat and support from the Great Communities Collaborative today released the findings and recommendations from a year and a half long project: Moving to Work in the Bay Area, a study of the barriers that low-income workers in the Bay Area face to accessing economic opportunity. The study found that while low-income workers in the Bay Area face multiple barriers to career advancement, the economic and workforce development fields often overlook a key barrier for low-income workers: transit access. In turn, transit advocates often overlook the importance of job creation and training to building a stronger Bay Area economy as well as…

Filling the Financing Gap for Equitable Transit-Oriented Development: Lessons from Atlanta, Denver, the San Francisco Bay Area and the Twin Cities
April 1, 2013
More Resources:
Foreword During the past two decades, transit-oriented development (TOD) has emerged as a powerful tool for creating liveable communities near good public transit through the development of dense housing, work places, retail and other community amenities. As demand for liveable communities grows, land values near transit increase, which can sometimes lead to gentrification. Recently, a particular approach to TOD has been gaining greater attention: equitable TOD. Equitable TOD prioritizes social equity as a key component of TOD implementation. It aims to ensure that all people along a transit corridor, including those who are low income, have the opportunity to reap the benefits of easy access to employment opportunities offering living wages, health clinics, fresh food markets, human services, schools and childcare centers. By developing or preserving affordable housing and encouraging locating jobs near transit, equitable TOD can minimize the burden of housing and transportation…
BART Bicycle Plan: Modeling Access To Transit
August 30, 2012
More Resources:
Executive Summary Plan Goal Like similar transit systems in Japan and Western Europe, BART can retool its stations and approach to access planning to attract more bicycles and fewer cars to the system each day. Bicycling to BART, particularly when those trips replace automobile access, helps avoid construction of costly auto parking spaces, can increase ridership, reinforce the agency's image as a green transportation provider, promote fitness and public health, and contribute to achieving regional goals to reduce traffic congestion and greenhouse gas emissions. Providing plentiful and convenient bike parking is also the most effective tool BART has to encourage as many passengers as possible to leave their bicycles at the station, rather than bringing them onboard, thus leaving space for the system to carry more passengers. When this plan was published in 2012, approximately 4% of home-based trips, or about 14,000, were made to and from BART stations each weekday by…

Why This Book? Transit-oriented development can be used as a tool to support family-friendly communities and high-quality education. Transit-oriented development (TOD) is a mix of housing, retail and/or commercial development, and amenities in a walkable neighborhood with high-quality public transportation. Interest in TOD has grown across the country to achieve multiple goals, including: Reduced automobile trips and greenhouse gas emissions; Increased transit ridership and transit agency revenues; The potential for increased and/or sustained property values near transit; Improved access to jobs for households of all incomes; Reduced infrastructure costs, compared to what is required to support sprawling growth; Reduced transportation costs for residents; Improved public health due to increased walking and biking; Creation of a sense of community and place. Recent TOD projects have often catered more to young professionals, empty nesters or other households without children, as these…

Executive Summary The federal government, through various transportation acts, such as the Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act (ISTEA), the Transportation Equity Act for the 21st Century (TEA-21), and, more recently, the Safe, Affordable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act—A Legacy for Users (SAFETEA-LU), has reinforced the need for integration of land use and transportation and the provision of public transit. Other federal programs, such as the Livable Communities Program and the New Starts Program, have provided additional impetus to public transit. At the state and regional level, the past three decades have seen increased provision of public transit. However, the public transit systems typically require significant operating and capital subsidies—75 percent of transit funding is provided by local and state governments.1 With all levels of government under significant fiscal stress, new transit funding mechanisms are welcome. Value capture (VC) is once…

10 Strategies For Attracting Investment Near Transit
October 31, 2011
More Resources:
Background Over the next 25 years, the San Francisco Bay Area is projected to grow by an estimated 22 percent—adding around 1.6 million new residents. Land use and development professionals are engaged in a dialogue around how the region can accommodate this growth in a way that maintains the extraordinary quality-of-life that attracts people to live and work in the region. With an eye toward demographic shifts like an aging population and an increasing number of smaller and non-family households, planners and developers recognize the growing demand for homes and jobs in walkable, urban environments. High land and housing costs in the core areas of the region, however, create continued development pressure in the outskirts of the region, leading to commute-times and household transportation costs that are among the highest in the nation. The high cost of housing and transportation is particularly felt by the region's moderate- and lower-income families, who in some cities spend as…
Building Support for Transit-Oriented Development: Do Community-Engagement Toolkits Work?
July 8, 2011|University of California Transportation Center UCTC Research Paper No. 885
More Resources:
Many metropolitan areas are struggling with how to accommodate future population growth—and are looking to transit-oriented development (TOD) as a potential solution. TODs, in which densely-built, mixedincome housing is placed near transit to create walkable neighborhoods complete with amenities and retail, could house as many as a quarter of the country's new households in coming years.1 Yet one barrier to building a significant amount of TOD housing is the unwillingness of many local residents to support some of the components of TOD, particularly higher-density construction and mixed-income housing. Often called NIMBYs (short for Not-In-My-Backyard), opposing residents can stop such developments in their tracks.

Living the dream
Boomers who made good on first career open many of state's new wineries.
- September 28, 2010
- |
Real estate broker Donna Evers decided on a lifestyle change while traveling in northern Italy 15 years ago. She awoke on a train from a deep sleep, and her eyes fell upon a sunbathed vineyard on a gentle slope. "I just couldn't forget the sight," she recalls. "I told myself, this is a view I want to be mine."
Today, Evers and her husband, Bob, own Twin Oaks Tavern Winery in Bluemont. It's less than an hour's drive northwest of Washington, D.C., where she founded Evers & Co. Real Estate in 1985. From the porch of the renovated 19th-century tavern on the winery property you can see a pristine, 2.5-acre vineyard on a gentle slope.
For Evers and many others like her, starting a winery in Virginia is an agrarian break from successful, fast-paced first careers.
Virginia licensed 60 wineries from 1975 to 2000, when the post-Prohibition farm winery industry was getting established in the state. In the past 10 years, 102 more wineries have opened. Very little of this recent growth can be attributed to people involved beforehand in agriculture or horticulture, or to college-trained winemakers, or to large wine corporations expanding into Virginia. "Most of the people who are becoming winery owners here had a very successful first career in something else," says Annette Ringwood-Boyd, director of the state's Wine Board Marketing Office.
Wineries have been started by land developers, information technology entrepreneurs, construction contractors, chemists, bankers, Fortune 500 company executives, surgeons and lawyers, as well as at least three celebrities — rock musician Dave Matthews, socialite Patricia Kluge and racecar driver Mike Canney. (See list on page 66.) Many of these entrepreneurs are baby boomers, that feisty generation of Americans born during the years after World War II, from 1946 to 1964.
Asked why people with experience in one field would want to start from scratch in another, Ringwood-Boyd laughs. "It takes a certain passion."
"You don't get into this business to make millions. That's like saying, 'I'm going to start painting pictures in order to make millions.' On the other hand, nobody I know opens a winery to lose money. They have lots of reasons. Sometimes people want to start a winery because they think they can make better wine. Some have traveled a lot and fallen in love with wine regions around the world. Others want to be closer to the land or to preserve land for agriculture."
This is nothing new, Ringwood-Boyd points out. "People all over and all through time have made money in one career and then bought a wine property. You remember the banking family that bought the chateaux in Bordeaux, the Rothschilds."
Many recent winery startups in Virginia have cost $5 million or more, according to Ringwood-Boyd. This size investment usually provides a large tasting room and an events space that allows a winery to host weddings and receptions, pumping up revenues. But she also can point to recently launched Virginia wineries where the owners focus almost exclusively on vineyards and winemaking facilities, and still end up spending several million dollars to get up and running.
Once they make their investments, according to at least two domestic wine production studies, winery owners must wait an average of 10 years to break even. Still, averages can be deceiving.
Brian and Sharon Roeder, managing owners of Barrel Oak Winery just off Interstate 66 in Fauquier County, say they reached the break-even point late this summer, less than 30 months after opening. Brian, who has worked as a management consultant and housing developer, invested $3.3 million of his own and his partners' money in the enterprise. He did it because he believed he could come up with a marketing plan unique in the Virginia industry. Also, Sharon became intrigued with winemaking about the time she got fed up with her office job. "She pictured herself taking her coffee and her dog out on misty mornings to check the vines," Brian says.
His strategy has been to sell ultra-premium wines, mostly in the $25 to $30 per bottle range, exclusively on-site and with lots of help from social-media publicity. The winery property, according to the plan, had to be close to the heavily populated Washington, D.C., metropolitan area and be picnicker- and dog-friendly — note the winery's initials, "BOW." In August, Barrel Oak was averaging 1,000 visitors per weekend, and it planned to bump production from 7,500 to 8,000 cases per year because of brisk sales.
At the other end of the scale, Robert and Francesca Giardina began this summer to search for a buyer for their 900-case-per-year Bloxom Winery on the Eastern Shore. He was a building contractor and she a pastry chef in New York when they decided a decade ago to establish a vineyard and winery in Virginia. He wanted to pursue a winemaking hobby he had started years earlier in his basement. Francesca says both were work weary and wanted to slow down. But the winery was undercapitalized, preventing them from hiring help and forcing them to work harder than they've ever worked before. "Robert envisioned making wine and fishing," she says. "But his boat is falling apart under the trees. He never went fishing."
Evers, who now divides her time between the real estate and wine businesses, says her winery project has been 10 years in the making. Her cash outlays have been incremental and not too large. The commercial launch of the winery was in 2008 and, so far, production has been fewer than 200 cases a year. She uses part-time consultants for vineyard management and winemaking and is thrilled to do some of the chores herself. "When I see people making enormous investments, I think, "Wow! Everybody seems to be trying to figure out how to make money at this.' It's not easy, especially for a small winery."
Despite the risks, she says her winery has increased the peace and beauty in her life. Does she regret not having opened her winery sooner? "No, I don't think I could have done this any earlier. You have to have the time, and the money. When you're younger, you never seem to have both of them simultaneously."
European regions where wine has been made for thousands of years have long been an inspiration to Evers. She owns an apartment in Paris and often has traveled in the French wine district of Burgundy, which she describes as the "high altar of the wine religion." She detects a reverence toward wine whenever she is in France, Italy or Croatia, where she has winemaking relatives. "There is no question; winemaking is an ancient idea that is appealing to me and my husband."
The charm of Old World winemaking also captivated Stephen Mackey, who opened Notaviva Vineyards in Purcellville two years ago with his wife, Shannon. The Mackeys have worked in the professional audio and digital media industries. In 1992, Stephen was an audio engineer for the concert tour of Julio Iglesias, a dedicated wine fancier and collector. "While on the tour I was exposed to regional differences in wine while traveling around Spain, Europe and the world," Mackey says.
Patrick Duffeler founded The Williamsburg Winery in 1985 and now it's the state's largest, producing 60,000 cases a year. He was born in Belgium and worked as a marketing executive in Europe for several corporations before becoming a Virginia vintner. Although he is fascinated by the wine tradition in France and was briefly involved in marketing Burgundy wines, his dream of opening a winery was shaped by his contact with American wine personalities, especially the late Robert Mondavi. "It was these people's approach to the constant potential for wine improvements that was a trigger point for me," he says.
Also, Duffeler says, anyone who has worked in the corporate world, especially in marketing, has experience that the wine industry needs. "This is a long-term-oriented industry requiring accurate forecasting of market demand, environmental issues, economic issues and otherwise. Ultimately, a solid understanding of consumer-pull and distribution-push marketing is essential."
Barrel Oak's Roeder agrees but adds that newcomers should not forget how much they owe to the industry's early "pioneers, artisans and scientists." He says these people have not been motivated so much by profit as by an intense desire to sort out the best vineyard and winemaking practices. "They made it possible for entrepreneurs from other walks of life to come in now and make a go of it."

As you all I'm sure are aware of of the open source social bookmarking CMS called Scuttle. Well it isn't anything too special except for the fact it happens to be one of the most popular scripts chosen on many many many niche based social bookmarking clones. Within the past year there also has been a launch of ScuttlePlus which is an improved version of Scuttle with a few more features such as do follow, administrator panel and advertising control. Now keep in mind 90% of the sites based on Scuttle are not even worth the time it takes to put a link in mainly because the websites are useless. There is no real substance to these sites making them weak places for a backlink, so use at your own risk. I've included a list of Scuttle based sites that are do follow and have *some* authority at the end of the post.
Find Scuttle based websites is a breeze but keep in mind most of them are no follow, so the only real point would be to find a few that actually have traffic based around your niche. I can't promise you'll find a site related to your niche so hopefully you have some luck on your side. I took sometime to find out the best way to mass identify Scuttle sites and you can easily do it with this Google search query inurl:?sort=url_asc which brings up a huge list of potential sites.
ScuttlePlus sites are just as easy to find and a lot more of them are do follow, and I must also mention seem to have more of a structured system going on. I'd expect links from ScuttlePlus to be considered a little less spammy, so becareful when using Scuttle for links. To find websites running ScuttlePlus another Google query will do the trick inurl:populartags.php/
I'm also aware that blackhats will and have been using automated tools to spam the bloody hell out of these social bookmarking sites, so I wouldn't be surprised to see a slap from the G in the future on spammy Scuttle sites. Regarldess of the black/whitehat implications of use, remember to keep an eye out for similiar software that might becoming more popular to use for your link building benefit.
Here's a list of a few Scuttle sites that all look the same and provide no real help to your link building efforts. Seeing these sites kind of seals the nail in the coffin for the future of social bookmarking links being a good source of link weight….

mod 3 5 ==> 3flip is generally used in place of a lambda expression, when constructing a specialized function:
flip mod 3 5 ==> 2
map (\x -> mod x 17) [1..] -- with lambdaUnfortunately, my brain really doesn't like that reversal. When reading any non-trivial expression using flip, I have to stop and think about which argument is now where.
map (flip mod 17) [1..] -- with flip
I've found that I prefer sections. You need to have one of the arguments handy, but I find that's often the case:
map (`mod` 17) [1..] -- with sectionI like this form better because it preserves the visual ordering of the arguments, which seems to be deeply seated in my reasoning process. Because of Haskell's flexibility with switching between prefix and infix application, it's easy for me to adopt a style to suit this preference.

The Dan Flavin Art Institute Opens for the Summer 2000 Season
Special Presentation "Dan Flavin Icons, 1961-1963"
From May 25 through September 10, 2000, The Dan Flavin Art Institute, Bridgehampton, New York, will present "icons, 1961-1963" and "Dan Flavin: Nine Works". Maintained by Dia Center for the Arts, The Dan Flavin Art Institute is located on Corwith Avenue off Main Street. Hours are Thursday through Sunday, 12 noon to 6 pm; suggested contribution $3.
A series of early works by the artist will be presented in a summer long exhibition, "icons, 1961 - 1963", which combines painted boxes with attached fluorescent and incandescent lights. The pieces are significant, not only as first manifestations of the artist's enduring preoccupation with the aesthetic applications of simple forms and electric light, but as telling precursors to the oeuvre he later developed based on new combinations and arrangements of fixtures and colors.
On permanent view in the second-floor gallery is an installation in fluorescent light by the artist. Consisting of nine works from the years 1971-1981, this installation was planned and completed in 1983 by Flavin for the Bridgehampton space. It has since been maintained by Dia Center for the Arts for public viewing each summer.
In addition to maintaining the Dan Flavin Art Institute in Bridgehampton, Dia has supported Flavin's work in other ways since 1974. The institution has commissioned site-specific installations in Marfa, Texas; Grand Central Station, New York City; and, most recently in 1996, the staircases of Dia's main exhibition facility at 548 West 22nd Street, New York City. Dia's permanent collection also includes over 40 additional works by this renowned American artist, a selection of which will be featured in a long-term installation at Dia's new museum in Beacon, New York, scheduled to open in 2001.
Dan Flavin was born in 1933 in New York City, where he later studied art history at the New School for Social Research. From 1963, he exhibited nationally and internationally. He lived and worked for most of the last 20 years of his life in Bridgehampton and Wainscott. Flavin died on November 29, 1996.
Dia Center for the Arts is a tax-exempt charitable organization. Established in 1974, the organization has become one of the largest in the United States dedicated to contemporary art and contemporary culture. In fulfilling this commitment, Dia sustains diverse programming in visual arts, poetry, education, and critical discourse and debate.

F.U.N. participants get together every 2nd and 4th Thursday of the month to play ukuleles (soprano, concert, tenor). It's recommended that you bring a music stand and ukulele tuner, along with a ukulele of course. Beginners to advanced uke players 16 and older are welcome but we do not teach lessons. Just jump in and play what you can. Most of us pick up new chords, songs and lyrics as we go along.

Student Growth Percentiles
A student growth percentile expresses how much progress a student has made relative to the progress of students whose achievement was similar on previous assessments.
A student growth percentile complements a student's SOL scaled score and gives his or her teacher, parents and principal a more complete picture of achievement and progress. A high growth percentile is an indicator of effective instruction, regardless of a student's scaled score.
What are Student Growth Percentiles? Learn about this new way to measure student learning.
Calculating Student Growth Percentiles
Student growth percentiles are calculated by identifying all students in the state whose previous SOL scaled scores in a subject are statistically similar and, then, comparing the achievement of these students on the next grade-level test. The achievement of each student relative to that of the other students in the group is expressed as a percentile.
Student growth percentiles range from 1 to 99, and represent the percent of students who had similar prior academic achievement (based on SOL tests) and earned lower scores on the most recent test in the content area. Higher numbers represent higher growth and lower numbers represent lower growth.
Reporting Student Growth Percentiles
VDOE has reported student growth percentiles for students who participate in SOL testing for reading and mathematics in grades 4-8 and Algebra I through grade 9 since fall 2011.
Examples of Student Growth Percentiles
Let's examine the meaning of the hypothetical student growth percentiles of four elementary students who all achieved scaled scores of 313 on the 2010 grade-3 reading test.
In the following chart, Student D was the highest achieving of the group, and the only one to exceed the minimum scaled score for proficiency of 400. Student D also showed the most growth because he achieved at a higher level than 91 percent of students statewide with similar histories.
Student A was the lowest achieving of the four students on the grade-4 test. The growth percentile of 15 indicates that Student A achieved at a higher level than 15 percent of students statewide with similar score histories.
Student B, with a student growth percentile of 48, demonstrated close-to-typical growth in reading compared with students with similar score histories. About half of the students who performed similarly on past assessments experienced more growth and about half experienced less.
|Example Grade-3 Reading:
SOL Scores and Student Growth Percentiles
|2010 Grade-3 Reading
|2011 Grade-4 Reading
|Growth Percentile
|Student A
|Student B
|Student C
|Student D
Now, let's compare the growth of four students who each earned a scaled score of 412 on the 2010 grade-3 mathematics test.
In the following chart, Student D earned a 510 on the fourth-grade test in 2011 and showed more growth in mathematics than 92 percent of similar students statewide. Student A showed the least growth relative to similar students.
|Example Grade-3 Mathematics:

As expected, the NFL-imposed Feb. 15 deadline for teams to file for relocation to Los Angeles will come and go without an NFL team taking action.
In the short term, that means Los Angeles will be without an NFL team next season for the 19 th straight year.
In the long term, it means little in Los Angeles' quest to bring pro football back for the first time since 1994, when the Raiders bolted for Oakland and the Rams fled for St. Louis.
That no team showed interest in moving here to play the 2013 season is about as surprising as Peyton Manning exiting the playoffs in the first round.
Nothing of substance is going to happen until the Anschutz Entertainment Group, the company behind the proposed Farmers Field Stadium project adjacent to Staples Center and L.A. Live, wraps up its heavily publicized sale.
The deal to purchase AEG remains in the bidding stage, and until the new owner emerges, the entire process of bringing the NFL here remains on hold.
Farmers Field is one of two local stadium projects the NFL is mulling along with the Ed Roski's City of Industry proposal.
Both projects are privately funded and have cleared the necessary hurdles to begin construction, but the NFL will wait until the AEG sale is complete before deciding which stadium to back.
As a result, the deadline will pass with everyone staying put.
For the time being, anyway.
It's only a matter of time before the AEG sale is settled, and with reports of interest from powerhouse names like Patrick Soon-Shiong, the richest man in Los Angeles; the Guggenheim Group, which owns the Dodgers; and Russian tycoon Mikhail Prokhorov, who owns the Brooklyn Nets, the bidding process figures to take some intriguing twists and turns over the next few months.
Once a sale is completed, the NFL will be ready to take a serious look at Los Angeles again.
The list of potential teams that might move here remains essentially the same as it has for more than a year now – although you can strike the Minnesota Vikings off that list after they secured a new stadium deal in downtown Minneapolis.
The San Diego Chargers are stuck in neutral in their quest to get a new stadium deal done and have an annual clause that allows them to buy out their lease with Qualcomm Stadium. Assuming nothing happens in their stadium fight, by this time next year the Chargers could be a serious candidate for relocation.
The St. Louis Rams are locked in a disagreement with city leaders on how much money is needed to bring the Edward Jones Dome among the top 25 percent of all NFL Stadiums by 2015, a negotiated requirement for the Rams to remain locked into their lease.
While the city estimates the renovations falls in the $120 million range, the Rams insist it likely exceeds $600 million. The disagreement is in the hands of arbitrators, and a ruling is expected soon.
If it's the lower number, the Rams will remain in St. Louis. If it's the higher amount, the Rams instantly become favorites for relocation as they can opt out of their lease without the improvements.
The Raiders and Jacksonville Jaguars are candidates as well.
But all of that is on hold for the moment as the NFL awaits word on the sale of AEG.
Once that happens, the other dominoes will begin to fall.
So stay tuned.

It couldn't be clearer – unless residents recycle, the city won't pick up their trash.
That means that on collection day, they will have to put out two carts, a gray one with trash and either a blue or green one with mixed recyclables. Alternating weeks of blue and green recycling carts is over. Paper, bottles, cans and plastics can now be mixed.
Along with the end of separating recyclables, the "No cart, No collection, No exception" rules go into effect on June 11.
The system should minimize trash while maximizing recycling, says Christopher Beneduce, the city's sanitation and recycling supervisor.
And, while Beneduce recognizes many people may not fill a green or blue cart in the course of a week, there's another reason to put one or the other out.
"Our biggest fear is that they will hold on to it [recyclables] and fill both of them [carts]," he said.
If that became a common practice, collection crews could be faced with more recyclables on one week than on another. That could pose problems.
As planned, each of the seven trash and seven recycling trucks on the road during a collection day will make a single run to Rhode Island Resource and Recovery (RIRR) in Johnston. A full truck, or nearly full truck, is the most efficient means of operation. Requiring people to place recyclables at curbside is seen as ensuring as even a flow of material as possible and keeping trucks on a single haul to the landfill schedule.
Also, requiring one recycling cart weekly, the city figures people will always have another to handle any overflow that otherwise might have been thrown in the trash.
In the long run, the entire system, including the mixing of recyclables, is projected to save money for the city and the state.
With a recycling collection rate of more than 26 percent – that's 26 percent of all collections are recyclables – Warwick has one of the highest rates among cities.
Some smaller communities have rates over 40 percent, which reflects different systems, says Beneduce. Some communities collect recyclables for free but charge for trash. In those cases – subscription service – recycling rates are higher. A reduction in the waste stream further translates into savings at the landfill. Municipalities pay a $32-a-ton tipping fee at the landfill and nothing for recyclables. In fact, they get a rebate on recyclables.
Further, explains Beneduce, municipalities are offered an incentive to increase recycling with reductions in the tipping fee. He said municipalities with a 24 to 27 percent collection rate have their tipping fee reduced by $1 a ton. At 27 to 30 percent, they get another dollar.
Municipalities are also faced with caps on trash, at which point tipping fees increase. Warwick's cap is about 26,000 tons a year, which, to Beneduce's recollection, has never exceeded.
At the receiving end of all the recyclables, Resource Recovery has invested $16.9 million in an improved system that mechanically sorts material; separating the mix it takes in. Sarah Kite, spokeswoman for the landfill, said the system works best when faced with a mix of recyclables. The system that went into operation last week is also designed to capture more of the plastic containers that previously went into the landfill. That includes jars for mayo, peanut butter and jelly; tubs for butter, ice cream and margarine; plastic takeout containers, but not Styrofoam, which still goes into the trash; iced coffee cups; yogurt containers and plastic egg cartons.
To properly recycle, containers should be empty and rinsed.
The system is also designed to recapture wrapping and tissue paper previously slated for the trash. Refrigerated and frozen food boxes, as well as greasy pizza boxes, should go into the trash.
All Warwick residents should have received a mailer, including a refrigerator magnet with a breakdown of materials that should and shouldn't be placed in recycling carts. They should receive another mailer this week reinforcing the city is going to the mixed system and making it clear, "No cart, No collection. No exception."

|Petere Ustinov as Herod the Great
Although we have no corroborating evidence for this story, it does fit into what we know about the man. He was responsible for killing his own wife and several of his sons. He even ordered that, upon his death, all of the leading figures of Judea be executed so that there would be some level of mourning when he died, even if not for him. Herod was a nasty piece of work and was clearly not a very popular person. Caesar Augusts is supposed to have once said " I would rather be Herod's pig than his son."
Well Herod didn't escape life without a painful death himself, at least according to Josephus. And the Montreal Gazette has an article today that explains the kind of death Herod suffered and asks medical experts: "what killed Herod?" Here is a bit of what the article has to say.
"He had a fever, though not a raging fever, an intolerable itching of the whole skin, continuous pains in the intestines, tumours of the feet as in dropsy, inflammation of the abdomen and gangrene of the privy parts." He also suffered, according to Josephus, from "limb convulsions, asthma and foul breath."
The doctors of the day were, not surprisingly, flummoxed by this combination of symptoms. They used the contemporary therapeutic armamentarium, including immersing the patient in a bath of hot oil. But Herod received no relief, and the bath burned his eyes.
The clinically curious of today can turn to the more modern Historical Clinicopathological Conference put on by the University of Maryland, which brings experts together periodically to examine the death of a famous personage, and which recently tackled Herod's case. The combination of symptoms was a challenging one, especially the presence of gangrene of the genitalia — something one does not see every day. The scientists used a clever bit of clinical reasoning and came to a tentative conclusion: chronic kidney failure of unknown cause complicated by the rare (thank God) Fournier's gangrene of the testicles. There are other candidates, of course, such as syphilis or other sexually transmitted diseases, but the kidney diagnosis seemed to fit the symptoms best.
All very interesting, but I am not convinced. Without some type of forensic evidence, I am not sure we can really know how Herod died. Moreover, I think Josephus' description of Herod's death is colored in such a way as to communicate to his readers that this is the way that evil people die. It was a common literary motif in ancient literature to describe the death of the wicked in very gruesome details. Here are two examples in Acts.
Acts 1:15-19
15 In those days Peter stood up among the believers (a group numbering about a hundred and twenty) 16 and said, "Brothers and sisters, the Scripture had to be fulfilled in which the Holy Spirit spoke long ago through David concerning Judas, who served as guide for those who arrested Jesus. 17 He was one of our number( and shared in our ministry." 18 (With the payment he received for his wickedness, Judas bought a field; there he fell headlong, his body burst open and all his intestines spilled out. 19 Everyone in Jerusalem heard about this, so they called that field in their language Akeldama, that is, Field of Blood.)
21 On the appointed day Herod, wearing his royal robes, sat on his throne and delivered a public address to the people. 22 They shouted, "This is the voice of a god, not of a man." 23 Immediately, because Herod did not give praise to God, an angel of the Lord struck him down, and he was eaten by worms and died.
It seems that having problems in the bowels was commonly understood as a painful way to die, and just the way you would like to see your enemies die. Look at these other examples from antiquity, one a very graphic description of the death of Judas.
'But the all-seeing Lord, the God of Israel, struck him with an incurable and invincible blow. As soon as he stopped speaking he was seized with a pain in his bowels, for which there was no relief, and with sharp internal tortures – and that very justly, for he had tortured the bowels of others with many strange inflictions. Yet he did not in anyway stop his insolence, but was filled even more with arrogance, breathing fire in his rage against the Jews, and giving orders to drive even faster. And so it came about that he fell out of his chariot as it was rushing along, and the fall was so hard as to torture every limb of his body..... and so the ungodly man's body swarmed with worms, and while he was still living in anguish and pain, his flesh rotted away, and because of the stench the whole army felt revulsion at his decay.... so the murderer and blasphemer, having endured the more intense suffering, such as he had inflicted on others, came to the end of his life by a most pitiable fate, among the mountains in a strange land.
King Joram, who had caused the people of
I could provide more, but I think you get the point. Besides, it is a bit early to be reading this type of material. I once had a student leave my class very white from reading some of the above descriptions. But in any case, I am not sure that we should accept Josephus's testimony about the type of death Herod experienced. It follows too many of the literary conventions used to describe the death of evil people, which is what most of Herod's subjects thought of him.

My husband has a fruit allergy and if he eats any it closes his throat and on occasion it will cause hives. sometime he can eat banana bread and sometimes he can't. Is there anything that we can do or is there any medicine that can help him so he can enjoy eating fruit again?
I would recommend speaking to a physician or allergist about this.

Here's Brett Levy at TheJournalismShop.com World HQ in Scottsdsale, AZ, about to type the last bit of critical code before unleashing a great net innovation on the planet. Will it be for good or evil?
Here's what he says in his blog:
Three weeks ago, I was asked if I could build a website for former Los Angeles Times journalists wishing to sell their services on a freelance basis. Today, we launched TheJournalismShop.
While we're still working out some kinks – we're not happy with the logo and may have a domain issue – the site is fully functional and easy to use. Say you need a former reporter with health reporting skills. Simply navigate to the Reporting page and then scan the bios. If that journalist seems to fit the bill, click on More Info. There, you will find a full resume and means to contact the journalist.
If you could do me the favor of clicking around the site a bit, that would be fantastic. Also, if you have a blog, linking to TheJournalismShop would also be of great help.
By the way, you can find me in the Projects, PR/Marketing and Design/Editing categories.

Over the past century, cotton has been one of the most researched plants on the planet. But as cotton production continues evolving, scientists are confronted with new puzzles about nature's complex fiber-producing factory.
In recent years, concerns about fiber quality and other issues have led to an increased emphasis on breeding, genetics, and genomics programs, both public and private.
That more intense focus has created a greater demand for researchers, already in short supply.
Cotton Incorporated, the research and promotion organization funded by U.S. growers and importers, has taken an unusual approach to securing qualified persons to conduct these important studies.
In 2003, it launched the Cotton Incorporated Fellows Program, which recruits PhD students and post-doctoral researchers to address critical issues related to cotton breeding.
"There is a real shortage of U.S.-trained scientists in this field," says Roy Cantrell, vice president of agricultural research for Cotton Incorporated, the research and promotion organization funded by growers and importers. "But these researchers are key to solving the difficult quality issues confronting the industry and to the long-term future of cotton improvement."
In 2004, nine CI-funded fellows were working at Clemson University, the University of Georgia, Louisiana State University, Mississippi State University, Texas A&M University, the University of Arkansas, New Mexico State University, and the University of California-Davis.
"All are involved in Cotton Incorporated research projects, working for you," Cantrell told members of the Cotton Board's Agriculture and Fiber Quality Research Committee at the board's annual meeting at Seattle. "Some are working on very applied science, looking at variety stability and fiber quality issues; others are involved in really cutting edge research, looking at new ways of analyzing fiber, new ways to associate fiber traits with spinning traits, so we can better predict end product fiber quality."
A lot of today's research, he notes, is directed at trying to develop better, more predictive tests relating raw cotton fiber to its performance in the mills and to the quality of the finished product. "That's not an easy thing to do," Cantrell says, "and a lot of our research is directed at these goals."
The program is focusing on strengthening public cotton genetic improvement programs to provide major benefits to U.S. cotton growers; accelerating genetic improvement of fiber quality and yield stability; and expanding applications of genomic tools (DNA markers) to cotton genetic enhancement.
"Problems and challenges facing the genetic improvement of cotton demand the attention of great minds," Cantrell says. "Many of these scientists will be future leaders in the U.S. cotton breeding community."
Some of the CI fellows will be graduating at the end of the year, he says, "and we're looking forward to getting them into the industry — whether with seed companies or biotech companies — and making an impact on cotton's future. Maybe 100 percent of them won't go to work in cotton, but we're confident that enough of them will that it will make a difference in the success of this industry."
In February 2003, one of the original five fellows, Joe Johnson, was hired as a cotton breeder at the USA Agricultural Research Station at Stoneville, Miss.

Re: Insert New Line Bug?
Not sure how to classify this bug but here's the behavior I'm seeing in VS2010 c# code.
Here's the code to reproduce:
abstract public class Dog {
abstract public void Bark();
public class Poodle : Dog {
Error List window:

<doubleclick the error list item to take you to the Poodle.cs file>
Here's where the viemu bug happens:
When i place the cursor at "public class Poodle..." and press o to insert a new line, a new line isnt inserted. The cursor jumps to "Poodle" and Poodle is highlighted and i seem to be switched into visual selection mode.
Hope this makes sense.

Storage of liquids on so called Lab-on-a-chip systems is of increasing importance. This is particularly true for reagents (e.g. proteins and enzymes), but also for water and common buffer solutions in general. With the on chip storage fluids are not brought onto the chip from the outside (e.g. ,by manual or automated pipetting); liquids are stored directly on-chip in blister packs.
Blister packs and pouches have been used in other application areas in the past. However, using this storage concept for Point of Care applications brings its own typical challenges. Here, controlled release volume and release rate, along with air free filling of the blister packs are essential.
thinXXS Microtechnology AG, a leader in developing and production of microfluidic systems, offers its customers with the Blister-on-chip- Technology the unique possibility of liquid storage directly on the microfluidic disposable. The coated aluminum blister packs can be adapted to customer requirements. The standard volume range lies between 150 µL and 5 mL. The blister packs are connected to the fluidic network with very low dead volume and can be filled cooled or under oxygen free atmosphere if required.
Controlled release is achieved utilizing a proprietary technology. The blister may also be used to transport the liquid on the chip. In this case they act much like a syringe pump.

Savitri Devi
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Savitri Devi (30 September 1905 – 22 October 1982) was an Esoteric Hitlerist author.
- I worship impersonal Nature, which is neither "good" or "bad", and who knows neither love nor hatred. I worship Life; the Sun, Sustainer of life. I believe in the Law of everlasting struggle, which is the law of life, and in the duty of the best specimens of our race — the natural élite of mankind — to rule the earth, and evolve out of themselves a caste of supermen, a people 'like unto the Gods'.
- Pilgrimage (Calcutta: Savitri Devi Mukherji, 1958, p. 327, http://www.savitridevi.org/pilgrimage-09.html)
- To those privileged ones -- among whom we count ourselves -- the high-resounding "isms" to which their contemporaries ask them to give their allegiance are all equally futile: bound to be betrayed, defeated, and finally rejected by men at large, if containing anything really noble; bound to enjoy, for the time being, some sort of noisy success, if sufficiently vulgar, pretentious, and soul-killing to appeal to the growing number of mechanically conditioned slaves that crawl about our planet, posing as free men; all destined to prove, ultimately, of no avail.
- The Lightning and the Sun (Calcutta: Temple Press, 1958, p. 3, http://www.vaidilute.com/books/savitri/savitri-01.html)
- A 'civilization' that makes such a ridiculous fuss about alleged 'war crimes' -- acts of violence against the actual or potential enemies of one's cause -- and tolerates slaughterhouses and vivisection laboratories, and circuses and the fur industry (infliction of pain upon creatures that can never be for or against any cause), does not deserve to live. Out with it! Blessed the day it will destroy itself, so that a healthy, hard, frank and brave, nature-loving and truth-loving élite of supermen with a life-centered faith,-- a natural human aristocracy, as beautiful, on its own higher level, as the four-legged kings of the jungle -- might again rise, and rule upon its ruins, for ever!
- Impeachment of Man (Calcutta: Savitri Devi Mukherji, 1959, p. x, http://www.savitridevi.org/impeachment-preface.html)
Quotes about Savitri Devi[edit]
- The greatest fighter after Adolf Hitler, Rudolf Hess and Joseph Goebbels. Moreover she was the first to discover the secret and spiritual power behind Hitlerism.
- Miguel Serrano, author and diplomat, (interview in The Flaming Sword, No. 3, August 1994, http://web.archive.org/web/19990508175302re_/www.satanism.net/iss/wot/Miguel_Serrano2.html)

Gov. Paul LePage sent a letter to Republican lawmakers, apologizing for "any difficulty that remarks recently reported in the press" may have caused them.
The governor has been under fire for his comments at an Aug. 12 political fundraiser in Belgrade, during which he reportedly accused President Barack Obama of disliking white people. The comments have been confirmed to the BDN by several attendees,, who have chosen to remain anonymous for fear of political reprisal. LePage denied making the comments to television reporters on Tuesday.
In his letter, published in full below, the governor says he does not believe Obama dislikes white people, but did not clarify what, exactly, he said at the fundraiser.
My fellow Republicans, I write to you to apologize for any difficulty that remarks recently reported in the press may have caused you. I had hoped that this matter, which was fueled by rumor and innuendo in the media, would die down. But there are some who are still fanning the flames.
Let me be clear, I do not believe that President Obama dislikes any racial group.
From my own family experience, I have seen and felt the effects of poverty and prejudice on our society. I believe that President Obama had perhaps the most unique opportunity in history to bring the country together. He could have been a great unifier for this nation. It is unfortunate that the President has missed that opportunity. It is also unfortunate that the media seized on this opportunity to try to divide us even more and create a problem where there is none.
Newspapers owned by politically motivated and powerful elitists relentlessly attack my every word and often mischaracterize my comments. They highlight negativity and partisan finger-pointing while putting important issues in the background—or they fail to report them at all. Ultimately, the goal of these media attacks is to prevent us from moving Maine ahead so the same old establishment politicians and their wealthy power brokers can maintain the status quo.
I grew up on the streets, where my first language was French, and I am not a polished speaker. I am plain-spoken, and I do not always use the correct wording while making a point. Yes, I can be blunt. But, as I have learned throughout my life, a person's actions speak louder than their words.
So let's focus on the progress we are making to create jobs, improve the economy, reduce taxes and reform welfare. Working together, our actions will build a better Maine.
Paul R. LePage

Craig Bullen needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 165 designs submitted by 33 freelance designers.
the Plunge
I am a guy who was fed up with drinking third rate expensive coffe at my sons football matches and though it would be ideal if I could brew my fresh coffee in the same cup as I drink it out of. So I developed "the Plunge". It's really just a coffee press that you can drink out of. I'm trying to get across that its a funky simple product that really works and really does not only save the user money but also produces the coffee they really like.
It's for all persons that want fresh coffee on the go. Pour hot water onto the coffee grounds before you leave home then press and drink it whilst in the car or bus etc. (the coffee stays hot/drinkable for up to an hour. so Mums on the go, commuters, etc. no specific target age group as will appeal to all.
I require a simple but clever logo which I can use on the product and on the website. It would be useful but not essential if the logo could stretch to a semi circle for the top of the cup. It would probably be better if it was just text without any graphics as such. But saying that a small part of the wording could be shaped into a graphic.

Volunteers needed for blood drives
The American Red Cross needs volunteers to support blood drives in Connecticut.
Volunteers at blood drives help with donor greeting and registration, as well as serving refreshments to blood donors.
"Volunteering is easy and helps support the collection of lifesaving blood by making donors feel welcome and comfortable," Stephanie Boles, senior director of volunteer engagement with the Connecticut Chapter, said.
The Red Cross collects an average of 135,000 units of blood in Connecticut each year at approximately 3,000 blood drives. "We really need the help of volunteers to make sure we are able to staff drives and support a safe and adequate blood supply," Boles said.
No special skills are needed. The Red Cross will provide training. Basic qualifications include good communication skills, flexibility and friendly personality.
"Staffing a blood drive is a great way to meet new people, keep up with members of your community and support the lifesaving work of the Red Cross," Boles said. "And we don't think you can meet a nicer group of people than Red Cross blood donors."
To become a volunteer, visit www.redcross.org/ct/volunteer.

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's Serious Fraud Office (SFO) said on Thursday it had found no conflict of interest in its investigation into Autonomy, the British software company accused of accounting irregularities by its U.S. owners Hewlett-Packard.
SFO head David Green said the investigation was proceeding into allegations that the U.S. computer and printer maker was duped when it bought Autonomy for $11.1 billion in 2011.
"We are not conflicted on Autonomy," Green told Reuters in an interview.
The SFO said in March it might be using an Autonomy product, Introspect, as a document management tool and therefore needed to establish whether it could continue a criminal investigation into how the British company was sold.
HP, which bought Autonomy in a bid to make it the centerpiece of a shift into software, stunned the market a little over a year after the purchase by writing off three quarters of the British firm's value.
It alleged "some former members of Autonomy's management team used accounting improprieties, misrepresentations and disclosure failures" to inflate the company's apparent worth. Autonomy has denied the allegations.

Usually the least crowded of the San Diego strand beaches, South Mission Beach has several unique sport-oriented attractions to offer. There are two quality outdoor basketball courts north of the parking lot. There are also a number of sand volleyball courts north of the parking lot and farther north along the seawall. The north Mission Bay Channel jetty is adjacent to the parking lot and is a popular location for fishing for bass, halibut and other species. In addition to the excellent fishing off the jetty, divers can take lobster, in season of course, from the many nooks and crannies along the jetty rocks. Remember, fishing licenses are not required for line fishing from jetties and piers. South Mission Beach is a great location for swimming and boogie boarding. The swim zone starts north of the South Mission Beach lifeguard station. Pay attention to the location of the black-and-yellow checkered flag. On San Diego beaches the lifeguards use this flag to delineate between a surf zone and a swim zone. On Sunday evenings South Mission Beach becomes very crowded, as it is a popular weekly gathering place for young people.
Known as "Americas Finest City", elegant and sunny San Diego is truly a city with something for everyone. In town, a whole day or more could be spent in Balboa Park, playing golf, touring the world-famous San Diego Zoo or visiting a museum. Just outside of town, Torrey Pines State Reserve offers a somewhat wilder terrain where visitors can view rare birds and the stately trees the park is named for. Children, and in turn parents, will be delighted with the city's wide range of family-oriented activities. From SeaWorld to the historic Gaslamp Quarter, there are events and exhibits to keep even the most hard-to-please happy. San Diego boasts an array of fine and trendy restaurants covering a melting pot of cuisines, world-class shopping and hotels from lavish to budget. San Diego is the eighth largest city in the United Sates and the second largest city in California. Relatively free from smog and byzantine freeways, San Diego, set around a gracefully curving bay, represents the acceptable face of southern California. Although it was the site of the first mission in California, the city only really took off with the arrival of the Santa Fe Railroad in the 1880s, and in terms of trade and significance it has long been in the shadow of Los Angeles. However, during World War II the US Navy made San Diego its Pacific Command Center, and the military continues to dominate the local economy, along with tourism and the Biotech Industry. San Diego is also home to one of the 2009 top ten beaches in the US. Coronado beach has just moved up from the number 8 position to number 4. You can enjoy the 100 year old Hotel Del Coronado visited by Kings, Presidents and movie stars behind you while taking in the ships and sail boats in front of scenic Point Loma.

Blackhawks end 'Circus Trip' with win against Coyotesby Jerry Brown
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- The Chicago Blackhawks finished their annual extended "Circus Trip" with their first six-win journey ever. Phoenix Coyotes coach Dave Tippett wants to know when his team is going to stop clowning around in the first period.
Chicago's Patrick Kane, Andrew Shaw and Niklas Hjalmarsson scored in the first 11:04 amid a series of penalties, missed assignments and poor play by Phoenix. The Blackhawks then withstood a second-period rally and closed the game strong to defeat the Coyotes 5-2 Saturday at Jobing.com Arena.
Brandon Bollig iced the game with a third-period goal, backup goalie Antti Raanta made 31 saves and Chicago finished a 12-day, seven-game road trip with six straight wins and a 6-1-0 record, improving to an NHL-best 11-3-1 away from home.
Marian Hossa scored into an empty net with 45.4 seconds left.
"It's a long time to be away from home, but we heard it's the best 'Circus Trip' in the history of the Hawks," said Kane, who scored his 16th goal one night after his career-high 12-game scoring streak was snapped in a 2-1 shootout win against the Dallas Stars.
"If you told us before the trip that we'd be 6-1, I think we'd all be happy with that. We didn't start off the way we wanted to [with a Nov. 19 loss at the Colorado Avalanche] but it definitely finished the way we wanted to."
Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus annually occupies United Center in Chicago in late November.
Rob Klinkhammer and Martin Hanzal scored in the second period for the Coyotes, who are 0-2-1 in their past three home games after a 9-0-1 start. This one came before an over-capacity crowd of 17,321 that included plenty of Blackhawks jerseys.
"They came back on us but we weathered the storm and [Raanta] played a great game and made some saves that he probably shouldn't have," Bollig said. "I wouldn't be surprised if we had more fans than them. It's always like that here. It's crazy how many fans we have on the road and it helps us out with momentum in games like this."
Coyotes goalie Mike Smith made 31 saves but has allowed at least three goals in six straight starts and eight of the past nine. The first period continues to be a problem for the Coyotes, who have been outscored 28-16 in the first 20 minutes. For the second time in the past three games, mistakes and a listless effort put them in a quick three-goal hole.
"I don't know what it is," Hanzal said. "It's not acceptable though, and we've got to get it turned around. Once in a while we come out strong and keep it going, but it seems like we have to battle back too much, and you're not going to win against good team. That's exactly what happened."
Phoenix took two penalties in the first 1:14: a too many men on the ice call on the first shift change of the game followed by a Derek Morris holding call as Chicago attacked the Phoenix net. With a 5-on-3 power play for 1:35, the Blackhawks cashed in when Kane deflected a Hossa shot out of midair at 2:34.
Duncan Keith assisted on Kane's goal, giving him a point in all seven stops on the trip, eight in all.
At 8:56, Smith couldn't handle Shaw's weak backhander from the slot that dribbled between his skate and the post to make it 2-0. Just 2:08 later, Kane squeezed a pretty pass into the slot that Hjalmarsson fired under Smith's blocker, and the Blackhawks had three goals in their first 13 shots.
"First shift of the game, and you have two right defensemen playing at the same time?" Tippett said. "This is a big game ... you know they are coming in tired and will try to play a heck of a first period to see if they can push back, and we just say 'Here, go ahead.' We take penalties, make mistakes; we give them a 5-on-3 just to make sure they really get going. Then we give up a poor goal that should be stopped and then poor defensive zone coverage on the next one.
"You can push back after 3-0, but let's start the game on time. That's frustrating. It's so foreign from how you want to play if you're going to be able to compete with a team like that. It's almost inconceivable we could do it, but we did."
Phoenix regrouped in the second period, pressuring Chicago and getting on the board at 5:52. Michael Stone put a shot-pass off the back boards that found Klinkhammer waiting at the post for the stuff-in. It was the first assist of the season for Stone (he has seven goals) and the fifth goal for Klinkhammer, a one-time Chicago minor leaguer.
The Blackhawks were called for four penalties in the period, and with Hjalmarsson serving a double minor after arguing his slashing call, the Coyotes inched closer. Mike Ribeiro's cross-ice pass found Radim Vrbata, who set up Hanzal in front of the crease for a tip-in at 15:56 to make it 3-2. The Coyotes earned more than a minute of 5-on-3 penalty time less than a minute later, but the Blackhawks killed it off and carried their lead to the third period.
Raanta admitted to a few nightmares before his first NHL start against the Calgary Flames on Wednesday but said he felt much more comfortable Saturday.
"It was much easier to play today than in Calgary, straight from the beginning," he said. "I made a couple of saves from the start. Maybe I had too much energy in the second period, too many splits, but I forgive myself. It was a pretty good game."

I must confess I should have worded that question as "Which is the greater tragedy?". But all points taken.
Also perhaps there is some middle ground, where a person has talent but lacks inspiration. What better kind of inspiration for a musician than an instrument with some favorable character? Even if it never gets used in the final mix. Although as Hybrid points out, this is likely not a significant factor in the rising demand and rising costs.
Either way, ebay is the quick and easy path. The dark side. Consume you it will.
