Students at Burnley-Moran Elementary School are learning firsthand about water conservation.
Charlottesville City Schools and the Public Works Department installed a 1,000-gallon rainwater harvesting system at the school. The rainwater stored will be used in the school's garden.
This is a way to reuse rainwater and teach students at the same time.
"It's a really hands-on way to learn about water conservation because they're seeing it happen right in front of them and they're utilizing that water and it's a great time to teach them and maybe think about other ways in their life they could also be saving water," said Kaitlin Finan, a water conservation coordinator.
Parents and students can learn more about the tank during Burnley-Moran's back-to-school night on September 19.
City of Charlottesville Press Release
The City of Charlottesville Installs Rainwater Harvesting System at Burnley-Moran Elementary
Charlottesville, VA - In an effort to conserve water at City schools, the Public Works Department has installed a 1,000 gallon rainwater harvesting system at Burnley-Moran Elementary School. The stored rainwater will be used in the City Schoolyard Garden. In addition to this system, there have been numerous rainwater tanks installed at City schools. There is a 2,500 gallon tank at Buford Middle, a 300 gallon tank at Venable Elementary, and a 40,000 gallon underground tank at CHS, along with smaller rain barrels at other schools. These systems capture rainwater runoff and divert it through pipes and a filter to the holding tank.
"This feature will not only save water but also teach students the importance of water conservation. Reusing rainwater in their garden is beneficial to our water supply, especially in times of drought," says Kaitlin Finan, the Water Conservation Coordinator for the City. The tank at Burnley-Moran can keep the garden supplied with water during a 6-8 week drought.
These systems also have a beneficial stormwater component; they minimize rainwater's exposure to contaminants before being used in the garden. Otherwise, the water would runoff the roof into a storm drain, picking up harmful pollutants and debris. This polluted stormwater runoff ends up in the Rivanna River and eventually the Chesapeake Bay.
The newly installed rainwater tank is expected to be put to good use this school year. According to Matt Darring, the garden coordinator at Burnley-Moran, "The kids will be fascinated by this. The parents at a recent workday were definitely excited. The whole point of the garden is to teach the students to be healthy, to be connected to the natural world, to build on classroom studies, and to use the experiences in the environment to learn. This rainwater capture system will help us 'close the loop' on the water cycle, conservation, erosion, environmental stewardship, and a host of other lessons." Hopefully these lessons will be instilled in the students for years to come. Parents and students can learn more about the rainwater tank when it is featured during Burnley-Moran's "Back to School Night" on September 19th.

President Barack Obama and the leaders of Germany, Britain, France and Italy agreed on a conference call last night to impose wider sanctions on Russia's financial, defence and energy sectors.
EU ambassadors are meeting today and are expected to target state-owned Russian banks and their ability to finance Moscow's faltering economy.
European Council President Herman Van Rompuy has written to EU leaders asking them to authorise their envoys to complete an agreement by the end of today. That would avoid the need for leaders to hold a special summit to approve the sanctions.
Under a blueprint produced last week, European investors would be banned from buying new debt or shares of banks owned 50 percent or more by the state.
This is a big deal and there are increasing signs of investors turning their back on Russia lock, stock and barrel. However, with its giant FX reserves, the central bank can provide dollars to fund external debt for a considerable period of time. It whacked up interest rates last week possibly to try and curb a new round of capital flight.

Accepting Changes.
Accepting change can be hard, but once you let go of the thoughts and be in the moment. Thinking of it as a new phase in your life, you free yourself of the hurt. Maybe right now it sticks in your mind but as the days go on it slowly evaporates like the rain does on a drizzly day. When we try to help people in ways that they can't see, if the same result keeps happening we must take a step back and be silent in the tree's. Let them sway in the wind and make their own path. Just as we have our own lives to live. It's harder when we care so deeply but as i've learnt today, I am no use worrying about it. Tears trickle down my cheeks and my heart swells, but as I take the time to see clearly, my love is enough for them to feel. It's all I can give. And for now I must let it be. Just as it is. Life is too short to have regrets and pain, each person is here to love and feel happiness. No matter what today can make you feel over the next few hours life can suprise you. There's no knowing the future, but you and I can have a say in it, by looking to the good and letting go of the negative. We allow the universe in, become an open vessel and embrace the change with new eyes new thoughts and new sense of self. Stronger than before.

This one is a quite recent addition to the 'personal year charts' lists. YT = YouTube link; if still available when you are reading this.
--- Share Good Vibrations at Facebook ---
--- Share Good Vibrations at Twitter ---
* = dance music, around 120 bpm and upwards. In the early 90s also semi dance (100-120 bpm).
** = 50s/60s exotica and bossa nova, ska, motown, hiphop, swingbeat, funk, soul, 70s style disco, world music, reggae, jazz, etc..
*** = ambient, idm, electronic, downtempo/lounge
**** = pop or rock, spanning from Nirvana to Britney Spears. 60s surf pop and synth based 80s disco are also counted.
***** = other styles, like cabaret.
# = guilty pleasure music. For some reason, I like those corny/cheesy tracks.
About the year of release
Basically, I put every track on the page of it's orginally year of release (the 'oldest' year I can find, after searching Discogs and such sites).
More about the music
Why publishing this?
To share my passion, and to get people in touch with - imo - something great they didn't know yet.
Why reading this, being a visitor?
Can be either nostalgic fun, digging up loads of old tracks, or a way to discover something 'new'. Especially among the relatively recent tracks (mid 00s-now) are a lot of less known or even obscure ones.
What kind of music?
I'm no purist, and my musical taste is a mish mash. From almost prehistorical to brand new, from utterly corny to really credible, from number one hits to obscure stuff. And besides that, I like tracks within about 1001 subgenres.
But most is quite light, with a natural undertone and an open, dynamic production. Another thing many tracks are sharing: a psychedelic and/or funky edge.
My personal dislikes:
Bloated, excessively overproduced 'loudness war' music. Obvious autotune. Forced hipness. Sugary softpop like Celine Dion. Specific parts of contemporary EDM; Afrojack and similar styles. Or too generic '50000 people in a huge venue putting their hands in the air' trance.
But there will always be exceptions, with an undefinable 'x-factor'.

|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

Wy'East Fire District and local, state and federal investigators are working diligently to bring the Diamond Fruit Growers fruit bin fire case to a close and are asking for the public's help in gaining more information about the Nov. 25, blaze, according to Wy'east Fire Chief Greg Borton.
A total of 10,000 plastic fruit bins, valued at about $1.3 million, were destroyed. No one was injured in the fire, which was fought by every fire department in the Hood River valley. Neighboring homes and vehicles were damaged.
"Diamond Fruit Growers as well as many other community members suffered a great loss as a result of this large fire and many neighbors suffered damages to their residences and personal belongings as a result of the intense heat," Borton said.
Because of this, a reward of up to $5,000 is being offered for information leading to the arrest and conviction of any person or persons involved with the Diamond Fruit Growers Bin Pile Fire.
If you have any information call the fire tip hotline at 1-800-452-7888, 24 hours per day, or call the Hood River County Sheriff's Office at 541-387-7077 and leave a message.

Very good doc...one of the best Vietnam pieces ever...the style was original and it WORKED...
Sad how this whole thing ended up...58,000+ KIA...many of the letter writers did not return home...
August 10, 2007
Absolutely amazing. One of, if not the best documentaries I've ever watched. The music was perfect and the letters were as touching as they were full of depth. The reading of the letters was really well done. I was not expecting this film to blow me away like it did. Highly recommended!
April 20, 2007
Very sad, but it is a part of our history. It's the best you can do if you don't know anyuone was that there.
April 18, 2007
excellent look at the vietnam war from the solider perspective - great voice work from vietnam movie actors
April 7, 2007
I loved it! I wish people all around the world could see this, it was so moving, it shows how hard american soldiers fight, and how difficult it was for them. it even tells the sad truth about how americans turned there back on vietnam soldiers. i really shouldnt even call them americans, they dont deserve it. I hope everyone that sees it understands how hard they fought for our beleifs and continue to support them.
June 10, 2006
A powerful and vivid tour through the cultural era of the Vietnam War years, made by one of America's finest documentarians. This is probably the greatest piece of documentary filmmaking I have ever seen.
April 10, 2014
Powerful and touching. I saw it back in high school but the message is so intense I can remember it even now.
May 22, 2013
Personal, unique history of the Vietnam War.
November 2, 2013
My Favorite Film Is 1941's Citizen Kane.
July 20, 2011
Saw it in my APUSH class and will never forget it.
January 9, 2013
Based on the novel Platoon Alien Wars this had little to do with THE SIX SURVIVORS OF THE 9 TO 3 ALIEN MOVIES
January 7, 2013
Great documentary. Various letters read by different perspectives was really the best medium for showing the true nature of war.
May 17, 2011
Beautiful compilation of the personal thoughts, hopes and fears of the Vietnam Soldiers, accompanied by photos/film showing both the light-hearted and (all too numerous) gritty moments from the war, not to mention a fantastic soundtrack. Dear America: Letters Home From Vietnam gives us a much needed, unbiased view of the Vietnam War.
November 5, 2010
While watching this film, one thought constantly asking for the attention, and it's simple, I just want to kill every single fucker, who is/was making his/her profit and building his/her wealth on war.
October 31, 2010
I loved what the way the put all the real footage and letters together and have famous actors narrate the letter that real veitnam soldiers wrote home. To see real what war is really like and to see what those brave man and woman went threw. It was just moving to watch and I give it a A++++
April 20, 2010
DEAR AMERICA, LETTERS HOME FROM VIETNAM comes to mind as the best "VIETNAM EXPERIENCE MOVIE"
In talking to a bunch of Vietnam Vets over the years (neighbors, teachers, relatives, etc.), I found that every "VIETNAM EXPERIENCE" is radically different from one another--there is no BEST movie because it seems like every soldier has such a varied experience . . .
DEAR AMERICA, LETTERS HOME FROM VIETNAM comes to mind as the best "VIETNAM EXPERIENCE MOVIE"

Steel Storm 2 Caught In A Blizzard
Published on 06 September 2012 08:17 AM EDT
Written by
Michael Larabel
8 Comments
A new milestone has been reached with the forthcoming Steel Storm 2 title from Kot-In-Action.
Uploaded to YouTube yesterday was a new Steel Storm 2 video by the game's developers. The video was uploaded with a description of "Another milestone has been reached. Large outdoor terrain, harsh weather, moving clouds drop shadows onto the terrain.. We can do it!"
The best part, at least to us, is "Hopefully we can put a real-time benchmark together using this content." It would be nice to see as this outdoor terrain / blizzard video looks fun although not visually the most amazing thing out there, still rather nice for a Linux title. Steel Storm 2 was originally being powered by the DarkPlaces engine but has now moved to id Tech 4.
Steel Storm 2 was
confirmed for Linux last year
although the indie game's development
isn't going too fast
. The company's other title,
Tomes of Mephistopheles
isn't selling too well
Steel Storm 2 is expected to be a first person shooter inspired by Doom and Quake.

Queen's Honour of Distinction
From EastKingdomWiki

Heraldry Needed
|Award Information
Founded by edict of Elspeth Keyf of Neddingham at her coronation. This was explicitly designed as a "catch-all" award to cover situations in which the Queen felt that no other award would be appropriate. This was in response to several awards Elspeth had seen over her long experience in which the statutes were "bent" or compromised to fit. The QHD is given entirely at the Queen's whim, for any act, series of acts, or pattern of behavior she herself feels moved to recognize. Recommendations are neither solicited nor accepted, and there are no quantity limits per individual or per reign. The token is traditionally, but not necessarily, crafted by the Queen's own hand. --Steffan ap Kennydd 18:28, 2 March 2009 (UTC)

Lorelai: Hey, do you remember the first time we met?
Luke: What?
Lorelai: I'm just trying to remember the first time we met. It must have been at Luke's, right?
Luke: It was at Luke's, it was at lunch, it was a very busy day, the place was packed, and this person…
Lorelai: Ooh, is it me? Is it me?
Luke: This person comes tearing into the place in a caffeine frenzy.
Lorelai: Ooh, it's me.
Luke: I was with a customer. She interrupts me, wild-eyed, begging for coffee, so I tell her to wait her turn. Then she starts following me around, talking a mile a minute, saying God knows what. So finally I turn to her, and I tell her she's being annoying - sit down, shut up, I'll get to her when I get to her.
Lorelai: Y'know, I bet she took that very well, 'cause she sounds just delightful.
Luke: She asked me what my birthday was. I wouldn't tell her. She wouldn't stop talking. I gave in. I told her my birthday. Then she opened up the newspaper to the horoscope page, wrote something down, tore it out, handed it to me.
Lorelai: God, seriously. You wrote the menu, didn't you?
Luke: So I'm looking at this piece of paper in my hand, and under Scorpio, she had written 'You will meet an annoying woman today. Give her coffee and she'll go away.' I gave her coffee.
Lorelai: But she didn't go away.
Luke: She told me to hold on to that horoscope, put it in my wallet, and carry it around with me -
[takes a piece of paper from his wallet and gives it to her]
Luke: one day it would bring me luck.
Lorelai: Well, man, I will say anything for a cup of coffee. Um… I can't believe you kept this. You kept this in your wallet? You kept this in your wallet.
Luke: Eight years.
Lorelai: Eight years…

If you asked yourself "Where was the publicist?" when "Duck Dynasty" star Phil Robertson went off on gays during his big interview with GQ magazine ... TMZ now has the answer ... the publicist was not there!
Sources very familiar with the situation tell us ... a publicist did indeed accompany Robertson to the interview -- per A&E's rigid PR policy -- and the interview took place in several locations. When the GQ reporter and Phil hopped on ATVs, the publicist didn't come along for the ride.
We're told it was then the reporter apparently saw an opening and Phil made his incendiary anti-gay comments
It's pretty shocking ... because Phil is widely known as a loose cannon ... so it's a little like playing Russian Roulette to let him gallivant off with a reporter.
See, he needs a handler in order to relate with civil society. I say tar and feather the bigot!
He answered it honestly, that's a no no
Phil didn't made an anti-gay comment, he made a anti sodomy comment. (don't look it up, sodomy means butt sex)
How can anyone still have the ancient belief that homosexuality is a choice.. IT is NOT!! I can only pray that he does not have a child who comes out because he would probably be the type to throw the kid out and disown him/her. His way of thinking is typical of the boondocks hillbilly he really is.
So typical... corporate backtracking
You can tell America is a ****ed up piece of **** when it makes maggots like this famous.
Thanks a lot for Jersey Shore too. ****ers.
How come gorillas don't have butt sex in the wild, is it because they're uncivilized?
ENOUGH!!! It is Christmas time & this should wait a couple of weeks.
So A&E definitely knew what they had on their hands huh? While it's A&E fault for hiring this man, he should at least feel ashamed to be accepting money and allowing a handler to be by his side telling him what to say even if that's not what he believes. Maybe he has no dignity? oh wait....
As much as I don't agree with everything he has said this focus is ridiculous. Yet it's acceptable for musicians to constantly discriminate and get away with it.
So it's someone else's fault he is a bigot? Hiding behind religion wasn't enough?
All the man said was he doesn't like butt sex and thinks its sinful.
Duck Dynasty Is Fake anyways
First let me say...im not a duck hunter (not that I wouldnt just havent had the opportunity) I also dont watch the show all the time (although I do like the message the family gives and find it funny) im also not a "church goin man" (but I absolutely belive in christ and the teachings from the bible) I do believe to each his own. Even though I may not approve of what some do I believe that a lot of what people choose to do will prevent them entering heaven. As long as they dont shove their beliefs in my face I will not to them. HOWEVER.....phil did not do anything wrong. He stated his point of view on the subject that he was ASKED about and referenced the bible concerning the subject. End of story. I am friends with someone who has know willie when they were in school and says they are a very good honest respectful Christian family. What more could you ask for out of Americans? Other religions have the beliefs they were taught ....to each his own. But wether you like it or not America was built with a Christian foundation. Over the years our "politcally correct" bull**** has cost us many of the freedoms and liberties that built this country to the once great nation it was. I only fear that it will never be again. Instead to continually decline until we are a socialist or even communist place. That is truly heart breaking. Phil thank you for standing for what you believe! Quite frankly after Christmas I will be buying a complete set of your calls (may take a few months $$ lol) as far as I'm concerned everyone should. Some say this was a publicity stunt. Me? I dont think so. If it was then I say hoorah at least he chose a good one!
I literally just read the entire GQ article. They were sitting in the living room when he spoke of homosexuals. When they got on the ATV there was no mention of such. At the very least I ask of you to GET YOUR **** TOGETHER journalistically.

In particular, the convention has been established that the GET and HEAD methods SHOULD NOT have the significance of taking an action other than retrieval. These methods ought to be considered "safe". This allows user agents to represent other methods, such as POST, PUT and DELETE, in a special way, so that the user is made aware of the fact that a possibly unsafe action is being requested.The logout link fails this. Obviously this is a bigger problem than that though.

Smaug The Stupendous
One of the things that I love best about Smaug (and I love so fucking many things about Smaug, okay, he's been my favorite dragon since I was a kid watching the 70's Hobbit cartoon through my fingers b/c that shit was scary as fuck) is that, more than any other cinematic dragon I've seen, Smaug is an actual dragon.
Dragons in movies are almost always misunderstood in some way or another - Draco from "Dragonheart" or the slash dragon (I'm sure he got a real name but I don't care) from "Merlin," Toothless from "How to Train Your Dragon" - when dragons are shown as creatures with comparable intelligence to humans, they are almost inevitably on the side of good. There is, moreover, usually something accessible about them - they're funny, or they miss their home, or they show loyalty to someone. We are able to recognize elements of ourselves and thereby relate.
But with Smaug, there is absolutely nothing accessible about him. Even his avarice is inhuman (or in…dwarfish? whatever) - there's nothing he can use the riches of Erebor for, he doesn't need it for food or power or status or safety. While he is "cunning," his intelligence is completely alien to Bilbo and the dwarves; when he asks Bilbo if he thinks that flattery will keep him alive, he expresses genuine surprise and puzzlement. He confidently ascribes all of Thorin's motivations to greed and ambition because those are probably the only dwarvish emotions he can possibly understand. When he discovers that Bilbo cares about the people of Laketown, it's useful him only because it means he can inflict more pain on Bilbo before returning to kill him.
This is the kind of dragon that I like best, and the kind of dragon that makes the most sense given the origin of their kind within this world - if I've got my mythos right, Melkor created the dragons specifically for the wars he was waging, and each one was considered as mighty as a full army. These were creatures that were not just bred but made to be fire and death; made to hate the other races of Middle Earth and disdain any good thing about them. Smaug is either a descendent or (more likely, since we don't know if dragons can even breed) a survivor of those wars, and most likely what he'd seen of the dwarves and elves and men in those wars has done nothing to make him respect them.
In short, Smaug is the most frightening dragon in movie history because for all his intelligence and ability to communicate, he is still utterly alien and evil. And I LOVE HIM FOR IT.

If you are working to get your movie made, keep in mind that the toughest part of the process is getting started. Many would-be filmmakers sit around all year waiting for everything to be perfect. Not you. The sooner you realize your movie will never be perfect the better. This frees you up to get started and take action.
As a filmmaker, taking action is better than sitting around and talking. Taking action is always better than making excuses for why you can't make your movie. And while we know there is a lot of crappy information touting foreign pre-sales as the only way to raise money, we also know there are other ways.
The Toughest Part Of Filmmaking
Taking action involves looking around, making a tally of the resources that you have right now and deciding to pick up a camera.
Depending where you are in your career, getting started may seem like an insurmountable obstacle. If this describes your situation, you're in luck. When I first started, I was stuck in my small town and I did not know anyone in the film industry. So I took any job I could. My first gig was mopping floors at a local production company.
What price are you willing to pay to make your movie?
And if money is the only issue, check out Tom Malloy's film finance package. I think you'll like it.

A Westminster holiday apartment offers luxurious accommodation located near some of the most important and popular London attractions. Your holiday rental may be a cosy apartment for two or a six bedroom stunner large enough for your entire family. Expect well-appointed kitchens and extras such as a washer and dryer, private terrace and modern décor. Each apartment is very well-appointed, so you will have everything that you need to enjoy your stay.
-Castles and palaces: So many castles and palaces are within a short distance of your lovely Westminster holiday apartments. See Buckingham Palace, Westminster Abbey, Banqueting House and St. James Palace. Study the differences in the architecture or just imagine what it would be like to live in one of these historic buildings.
-Museums: Another way to see some of the area's treasures is by visiting some of the many nearby museums such as the National Portrait Gallery, the National Gallery, Tate Britain and Royal Mews. The Queen's Gallery is extra special as it contains items actually owned by the Queen.
-Religious buildings: The important religious buildings near Westminster are as ornate and lovely as some of the palaces. Visit Westminster Abbey, St. Margaret's Church, Westminster Cathedral and St. Martin-in-the-Fields.
-St. James Park: This park, which is surrounded by three palaces, has a long history. In the 16th century it was a royal hunting ground and has undergone many changes at the whim of different rulers. Today, the beautiful spot looks like a country estate and is as well-decorated as you would expect any royal garden to be.
-Shopping: The shopping in Westminster is quite unique. Instead of typical chain stores, you will find a series of unique shops selling things such as artisan cheese, rare books, top hats or hand crafted boots. You'll also find a wine emporium that has been selling wine for more than 300 years.
The average temperature during the winter months is 5° to 6° C. During the spring you can expect average temperatures of 10° to 13° C. Summer brings average temperatures of 18° to 20° C. There is between 40 and 70 mm of rain per month, so bring your umbrella no matter what time of year you visit. Because Westminster doesn't suffer from extreme temperatures at any time of year, there really isn't a bad time to visit. You can enjoy the best weather in late spring or early summer, but you can avoid the biggest crowds by opting for a different time of year.
From Heathrow Airport (LHR) you can complete your journey to your Westminster holiday apartment via train. Westminster and Knightsbridge are two of the stations located nearby. You can also opt for a pre-booked car or taxi, which will make it easier, especially if you have a good bit of luggage.

false positive(fâls poz´&-tiv) (n.) The condition in which spam-filtering software will incorrectly identify a legitimate, solicited or expected e-mail as a spam transmission. As spammers use more and more sophisticated methods of averting spam filters, the filters have to adapt to keep the onslaught of spam at bay. While sophisticated spam filters, such as the ones that use Bayesian filtering, are keeping out the overwhelming majority of spam e-mails, some spam still slips past the filters, and unfortunately some legitimate e-mail is incorrectly identified as spam and filtered out.

As software evolves during development and maintenance, regression testing is applied to modified versions of the software to provide confidence that the changed parts behave as intended and that the unchanged parts have not been adversely affected by the modifications. To reduce the cost of regression testing, test cases are selected from the test suite that was used to test the original version of the software---this process is called regression test selection. A safe regression-test-selection algorithm selects every test case in the test suite that may reveal a fault in the modified software. Safe regression-test-selection techniques can help to reduce the time required to perform regression testing because they select only a portion of the test suite for use in the testing but guarantee that the faults revealed by this subset will be the same as those revealed by running the entire test suite. This paper presents the first safe regression-test-selection technique that, based on the use of a suitable representation, handles the features of the Java language. Furthermore, unlike other safe regression test selection techniques, the presented technique also handles incomplete programs. The technique can thus be safely applied in the (very common) case of Java software that uses external libraries or components; the analysis of the external code is not required for the technique to select test cases for this kind of software. The paper also describes RETEST, a regression-test-selection system that implements our technique, and a set of empirical studies that demonstrate the potential savings that can be achieved using our technique. These studies show that, for the subjects we considered, the regression-test-selection algorithm can be effective in reducing the size of the test suite.

Edward Behr on How to Eat Better in 2014
In his new cookbook, 50 Foods: The Essentials of Good Taste, noted culinary expert Edward Behr guides readers on how to select, prepare, and most importantly, enjoy, some of the world's best foods. To help us get the new year started off right, here are Behr's top ten tips for a delicious 2014. — JBF Editors
1. Eat better apples.
Most of the apples in supermarkets have been picked too soon, and even if they were stored well, they've spent too long in the distribution pipeline and then sat too long in displays without refrigeration. They're not at their best. Instead go to a farmers' market or a store that cares about fruit and offers great varieties with real flavor, such as Ashmead's Kernel, Duchess of Oldenburg, Esopus Spitzenburg, Newtown Pippin, Wickson Crab, Pink Pearl, and Macoun (the best of the McIntosh family). Any of those are good for eating out of hand and are also excellent for cooking.
2. Eat fresher,

Make It Ahead
Unless you're a very confident cook, avoid last-minute cooking at all costs. A frantic or absent chef does not put guests at ease. For many of us, salads and stews are saviors.
Cook What You Know
The day of your party is not the time to practice something fancy that you've never even tasted, let alone cooked. Your tried-and-true pot roast may not seem exciting to you, but a solid dish done well is always better than a flashy one gone awry.

Raising the Bar: How to Make Better Cocktails at Home with Audrey Saunders
We tapped the Pegu Club owner and 2013 JBF Gala mixologist to share her tips for better at-home mixology.
Simple Syrup, Simply Put
When it comes to cocktails, we don't want to cook simple syrup; that increases its viscosity. There are exceptions, but we generally don't want heaviness in a cocktail. Fill a bottle halfway with superfine sugar, which is gritless and dissolves instantly. (I like to repurpose 10-ounce glass soda bottles. They're ideal for home use and a speed pourer fits perfectly into them.) Fill the other half with filtered, room-temperature water. Cap and shake well. The mixture will appear cloudy at first but will quickly settle. Top off with more water. When it's transparent, it's ready for use.

I liked it. The production value is pretty amazing, great artwork and decent animation. Could've used more keyframes, like when the girl is walking out of the house, but otherwise it looks a lot better than the limited animation on television right now.
I didn't laugh at anything, but that's just my tastes (I don't find timothydelaghetto funny), the jokes where fine.

You won't be 'board' this 4th of July!
The central event in this year's Old Fashioned 4th of July will be the official opening of the Blaine Skatepark at 2 p.m. followed by an afternoon of top flight boarding competition.
Otherwise the day will have the same traditional elements as before, starting with the 8 a.m. strawberry pancake breakfast at the Blaine senior center ($3.50, $2.50 for kids 12 and under).
The noon parade will go from F Street to Boblett Street on Peace Portal Drive. Parade participants are asked to stage up at the city parking lot at 3rd and G streets at 10 a.m. Peace Portal Drive will be blocked off between F Street to the north and Cherry Street to the south from 11 a.m. until the parade is finished.
Downtown streets will begin filling with classic cars that morning for the Show 'n Shine, and the vendors, musicians, kids activities and library book sale for the annual Street Fair open at 11 a.m. The Plover boat will make hourly runs from noon until 8 p.m. from Blaine to Semiahmoo and back, and a free Whatcom Transit Authority shuttle bus will be running all afternoon from downtown to the marina to make the connection easier.
Live entertainment begins after the parade with Gloria Dawn and Ten O'Clock Scholar at 1:30 p.m. The skateboard competition begins at 2 p.m. and ends around 6 p.m. with raffle prize drawings. Semiahmoo Resort's annual Salmon Barbecue runs from 5 - 9:30 p.m. ($15, $10 for kids 12 and under).
The day ends, of course, with $13,000 worth of pyrotechnics going up in smoke. The first blast is scheduled for 10:15 p.m. Coordinator Pam Christianson asks people to remember "the technicians from Western Direct, the company we've used for years, won't begin until it's dark enough, which will be about 10:15 p.m. Don't worry, though. Believe me, you'll know when it starts."

Rain, snow, sleet or hail: Rowers keep on rowing
As the white of winter lingered into the new spring season, University of Pennsylvania crew team members found themselves rowing through snowflakes along the Schuylkill River yesterday.
"I've never actually rowed in snow until this year, and this year it's happened about seven times," said rower Mitch Stein, 22, a senior finance and accounting major.
Between two and three inches fluttered across the Philadelphia area yesterday, extending the winter season for at least one more day to the dismay of several summer sports teams.
"This morning was the worst. When we would stop to turn around, I would have accumulated snow on my body," said Stein, who tends to sit in the back of the boat.
Most wore jackets, but rowers don't usually wear gloves. Some believe it shows weakness.
"It wasn't that bad," Stein said. He was just happy there wasn't much wind.
The worst part was docking, he said. "There was about two inches of snow on the docks, so getting the boat out and back in—that's when my feet just froze."

Mention the National Geographic -- It identifies you!
Kodachrome by Thomas Nebbia.
From "Where Jesus Walked," National Geographic, December, 1967.
Thread of life through harsh hills, the Jordan River coils southward from the Sea of Galilee, creating a swath of plenty. Jesus was about 30 years old, according to St. Luke, when He came to the Jordan to be baptized by John the baptist before beginning His ministry. Except for a norther segment, the entire valley lay within Jordan until last June [of 1967], when Israeli troops swept in and seized the western bank, left.
Map of Ancient Israel, Samaria, Galilee, etc. Drawn by Elie Sabban. Compiled by Dorothy A. Nicholson.
From "Where Jesus Walked," National Geographic, December, 1967.
Birthplace of Christianity
Ancient kingdom of the Jews, outpost of the Roman Empire — this was the land Jesus knew. The towns bear the names of His day; the roads follow the turnings He traveled. Roughly the size of Massachusetts, His homeland traditionally stretched from Dan to Beersheba, approximately 150 miles, a distance a man could walk in a week. Only 80 miles separate Nazareth from Bethlehem. Although the Romans improved the major trade routes, paving them with stones, much of the travel was on dusty tracks or rocky trails.
No one knows the exact route of the Nazarene during His brief ministry. The Gospels do not agree in chronology and often fail to refer to places by name. Locations of many revered sites of Christianity rely on tradition: the baptism of Jesus at the ford north of the Dead Sea; the town of the first miracle, Cana, north of Nazareth; the temptation of Jesus in the wilderness among the harsh hills near Jericho; and the Transfiguration on Mount Tabor or Mount Hermon.
But to the men who wrote the Gospels, the events of Jesus' life far outweighed concern with such details as where they happened.
Inset shows boundaries as of June 4, 1967. For the June 10, 1967, cease-fire line, see page 785 and supplement map distributed with this issue.*

Kodachrome by Thomas Nebbia.
A two-page spread from "Where Jesus Walked," National Geographic, December, 1967.
Carefree age of innocence leads children to a sunlit meadow outside Nazareth, where Jesus spent His childhood — the "hidden years" unchronicled by the Gospels. Jesus probably devoted much of His day to studying the Law of Moses, like most Jewish boys, or helping His foster father, Joseph, in the carpenter shop. But there must have been time to play and dream in the nearby fields, where He came to know the birds and flowers, the fig tree and the mustard seed — the wonders of nature that He used to illustrate His teachings in later years.

"Flying Stomachs" Attack Pakistan; Men Cannot Stop a Migratory Swarm
Ancient scourge of mankind, the ravenous grasshopper, or locust, has been described in carvings and writings for 4,400 years. Exodus 10:15 tells the horror of the eighth plague which the Lord visited upon Egypt because Pharaoh would not release Moses and his people:
"For they [the locusts] covered the face of the whole earth, so that the land was darkened; and they did eat every herb of the land, and all the fruit of the trees, which the hail had left: and there remained not any green thing in the trees, or in the herbs of the field, through all the land of Egypt."
Joel's dire prophecy (Joel 2:3, 10) has often been fulfilled:
"… the land is as the Garden of Eden before them [the locusts], and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them. … The earth shall quake before them; the heavens shall tremble: the sun and the moon shall be dark, and the stars shall withdraw their shining."
At least eight major locust species have wrought destruction on six green continents throughout history. Not until the 1920's did man begin to understand that the insect led a double life. Knowledge that the inoffensive solitary grasshopper may become the swarming migratory destroyer gave its victims a new weapon.
All of those black, smudgy dots you see in the photograph are locusts. And Swarming Migratory Destroyer would be a great name for your next drone noise project.

In Bottineau, a November vote will decide if a near-19-million dollar project moves ahead.
The school district hopes to construct a new elementary school.
Currently, grades pre-k through second grade are in the Central School Building and grades 3-5 go to the middle school.
A new one-story school would be built on the east side of town and would feature larger classrooms, a better pick-up and drop-off system, and enhanced safety.
Bottineau Public Schools Superintendent Jason Kersten says today's standards have surpassed the capabilities of the Central School building.
(Jason Kersten, Bottineau Public Schools Superintendent)"It has some limitations. We've had to add some sections with some enrollment increases and we feel it needs to be replaced at this point in time to keep up with today's technology and with how education is handled today."
The 18.9 million dollar project would be funded through a bond--$925,000 of that would help renovate two science labs at the high school.
Kersten says estimates show a new school building would add about 230 dollars a year in property taxes on a $100,000 house.
He says the new school would make way for expansion down the road.
(Jason Kersten, Bottineau Public Schools Superintendent)"I think it's very important as we move into the future and if there's going to be growth that's going to be a selling point for families to move in."
The vote will take place Tuesday, November 5th from 10am to 7pm at Bottineau School.
You can view renderings of the project at the school's website.

Not many years from this present, a new war rises upon humanity, and many mechanical devices, including this robot, are sent to fight with the humans. Suddenly, in the middle of the battle, our friend, partially destroyed by the enemyÃf'Ã'´s weapons, finds a curious fantastical creature that grants him any wish he want... "wich one would be his wish?"
...I challenge you to find out ;)
This work was particulary hard to make. I had to study several robot references from many works, and I even had to make my own sketches of how the robot face will look like. I think the outcome is decent. Im verry satisfied with the face, wich has to show an inexpresive look, and let the the people guess their oun expresion in his eyes.
Hope you like this work guys :D

I really like your idea. Great contrast in subject in in the image. I think if his hands were brought towards the viewer more, that would help make it seem more interactive. Great job playing with the negative space, the wire design is really good! I also love the little bits of highlights on the armor. Great job!
Rated 4 / 5 stars Feb 21, 2014
I really like the idea of your backstory. Robot at war finds a creature that will grant him a wish. And I just can't help but wonder what would a robot ask for? Part of what I like about this circumstance is how you designed the robot. It doesn't look too intimidating or violent. It looks strong, but there's nothing here to indicate that it would want to hurt somebody. It's sort of... neutral. Like maybe if given the chance, it wouldn't want to go to war. But then again, we don't know. And that is a part of what matches up great with the scenario of the poster. Something neutral, vague, unknown, maybe innocent, given such a large power.
I like the detail of the robot, and the way the robot and the background are sort of gray and bleak pair up with the war theme nicely. And the contrast between the bleak robot and the pretty shine of the wish-granting creature is great. Almost like hope among despair or something. Great work.

This is a nice fusion of sci-fi and fantasy- like two people of opposite backgrounds crossing paths and finding commonality. The wonder of what might happen really causes this piece to have appeal. Good work.
