In order to be able to reduce the weight of the sails we developed a completely new range of laminate materials, with a much thinner film supported by a double structure of fibers, a balanced scrim of fibers orientated in the warp and fill and a classic X-Ply angled series of fibers. From here the name 2Ply. Creating an complex woven web for highest durability with super light weight.
Beside the proofed X-Ply we use this new laminate in the upper sail body to archive minimal swing weight and protection of critical areas.

Offered is a vintage Double Cone planter designed by Lagardo Tackett for Architectural Pottery of Southern California in the 1960s.The piece measures 21 inches high and 11 inches in diameter and is in very good vintage condition showing only appropriate signs of age and use. Marked: Architectural Pottery Made in USA as shown in the last photo. About Lagardo Tackett: LaGardo Tackett (1911-1984) was born in Henderson, Kentucky. His father was a grocer, and later in life Tackett, who preferred to be called Tack, explained that his unusual first name came off a can of tomatoes from his father's store. As a young man, he entered Indiana University to study geology but left school after two years and married Virginia Lee Roth, whom he had met there. In 1937 they moved to New York, and Tackett got a job with the department store giant The May Company. By the early 1940s, he became the interior promotion director, which necessitated a move to the company headquarters in Los Angeles. He was drafted during World War II but returned home in 1945 and used the GI Bill to take formal pottery classes. He later taught at the California School of Art, including a course he taught at his own kiln in Pasadena. He mentored several of his students, including John Follis and Rex Goode. His work, along with that of Follis and Goode, as well as Malcolm Leland and David Cressey, was discovered by entrepreneurs Max and Rita Lawrence, who started Architectural Pottery. The pieces designed for this company became favorites of the architects who designed Case Study houses.

Note: I had my column up from this week on the site, but I didn't want to leave it here because it's really more political in nature. So if you're wondering where it's gone, it's just that I want to keep this blog about marriage and family, not politics, even if sometimes I write about politics.
Instead, I thought I'd reprint this column from several years ago. We've had a lot of deaths in our small town lately, many young people before their time, and it made me think of this again.
A few weeks ago my mother-in-law was listing various health complaints, when I commented, "growing old sure doesn't sound that fun, but at least it's better than the alternative."
My dear mother-in-law then said something very wise. "But how do we know?" She asked. "I'm sure heaven is far better than what we have here."
I believe it is, and yet often that belief doesn't translate into my everyday life. Too often I live thinking only of the here and now. Yet if there is something beyond this life, shouldn't we spend some time figuring out what that is?
Perhaps that is easier for children, who seem to have a better grasp on spiritual things. In just two short weeks I'll remember the anniversary of my son's death, fifteen years ago now. His memory is still so much a part of our family, and so my daughters have grown up without being shielded about death, as many children are. And yet it has not made them sad. I remember listening in on a conversation then 6-year-old Katie was having with a friend who was over to play. The friend had picked up a picture of my son and asked Katie about him. She replied, "That's my big brother Christopher. I never got to meet him on earth, but when I get to heaven he'll be my tour guide." I've always liked that image.
It is in times of grief that these images are often sealed, either for good or for bad. We either reject the possibility of a deity and an afterlife, or we run desperately into God's arms for comfort. I have chosen the latter, and I have found that even in tears, it brings peace.
It was that peace that radiated at the funeral last week, as my friend Bruce reflected on his mother's Margaret's life. The service was a beautiful testimony to her sense of humour and her faith. And Bruce ended with a story from December 23, 1986. He had called his mother to come and pick him up in Belleville, but she could not find the keys to the car. "Check your pockets," she said. He did. And the keys rattled. She told him that perhaps it was time for him to learn a lesson and walk home.
With no other alternative, he started to trudge to his house northeast of the city. Over the years, Bruce admits, the story has become embellished. He admits now that he did not walk uphill the whole way. He was not barefoot. He did not have to climb over mountainous snow banks. And yet, on that day, he remembers his overwhelming thought was of his mother, safe and warm at home, while she left him to walk alone. And as he stood at his mother's funeral, he had that same overwhelming feeling: she was safe and sound, at home, and he was left to walk alone.
When we lose someone we love, that overwhelming sense of loneliness is inevitable. I know those days will descend upon me again, whether it be soon or decades in the future. I hope, though, that those days come, I will be able to keep three images in mind: the God who welcomes me; Margaret, safe and happy at home; and my son, waiting to be my tour guide.

A closer look at the Apollo 16mm "DAC" Footage (Trailer)YouTube: "This brief presentation you will see here is just a bit of a teaser/trailer, showing a short segment from a larger video project I am currently in the process of working on. While the full presentation is still awhile away from being complete, I have received more than a few emails asking me about when my next video was going to come out, so I thought that in the interim, I would release this short segment just as a teaser to show a taste of some of the interesting visuals I plan to include in upcoming presentations where I will provide my own analysis of some of the Apollo-era films. All of the footage you will see here was captured on film during the Apollo missions to the Moon, shot by NASA astronauts. Originally exposed on 16mm film, this footage was taken using what was known as the "DAC" - the "Data Acquisition Camera".

Reliving my schooling. Rebooting my life.
The young woman whom my mom mentors is going out of state for college in the fall, and my mom is compiling a booklet of advice for her. (Yes, my mom rocks.) Here's my contribution:
If I could do college over again, I'd spend less time in the library and more time living. As a student, I had the attitude that the most important part about school was academic achievement, but now I realize that it's about so much more. It's about playing frisbee on the lawn at 10 pm. It's about sitting around with your girlfriends in the dorms, giggling about silly inside jokes. It's about the little moments that will stay with you the rest of your life. This may be the only time where you live on a campus with people who are all your age, so enjoy your time there. Don't believe people who say that college is the best time of your life, but make it one of the best times.
Fall in love with learning, if you haven't already. Get excited about the hundreds of class listings available to you each term; realize how cool it is to get to learn as your full-time job. You can stay engaged in your classes and work hard in them without putting too much stock in grades. Do not let your transcript define you. It does not reflect how much you know, and certainly not how happy you are.
Get to know your professors during office hours and social events. Make them your mentors, and keep in touch. They are some of the smartest people you'll meet, and they can help you in doing whatever you choose to do.
Jump at any chances for real-life learning in addition to book learning, out in the community and on campus. Use all the resources available to you as a student: lectures, concerts, and sports games a few paces from your door. Study in another country if you can, and travel. It will be life-changing.
Graduate with the least amount of debt that you can by applying for as many scholarships as possible. Some student loans are OK, but money that you don't have to pay back is always better. Get a part-time job if you wish, but don't work full-time if you can avoid it — you'll miss out on other opportunities.
Know what services are available at the gym and health center. Usually you can get a therapist for free at college (instead of for $150+ per hour), and God knows that everyone could use one. Make an appointment with the career counselor, who can help you brainstorm possible career paths and internships. Remember that there's no need to pick a career right out of the gate. Explore. Take lots of different classes: mythology, creative writing, and behavioral science, for example. Don't worry about picking the "right" career. Try on possibilities like hats, to see what fits you. If one doesn't appeal to you, there are plenty more to try.
If you choose to drink (or do other things that would get you in trouble with your RA or your parents), use good judgment. Go with your instincts, always, about whether you're being safe. If you choose not to drink, etc., don't judge others who do. Let people do their thing, as long as they're not stepping on your toes or putting you in danger.
Instead of limiting yourself with labels — "I'm an X kind of person, not a Y kind of person" — be open to new experiences, friends, and identities. You'll be surprised at how much you change by the time you graduate. During tough times, remember that "This, too, shall pass." It always does.
Above all, be grateful for the opportunity to go to a four-year college. The time there is yours, so don't let anyone tell you how you "should" use it. Do what makes you happy — truly happy, the "I want to do this all day" kind of happy. It's the best habit you can pick up in college, and everything else follows from there.
What would be your advice to my mom's mentee? (Short or long, I'll make sure she gets it.)
June 3rd, 2009 at 6:48 am
Great advice!
I was amazed towards the end of college at how much my worldview had changed–so much so that it'd be difficult to describe myself as the same person who graduated that I was when I entered.
(I've tried telling this to my student loan lenders in an effort to show that the person who borrowed the money has changed so much that it wouldn't be fair to expect me as an enlightened graduate to be responsible for my freshman self's debt…no dice.)
Here's a copy & paste of the advice I'd sent:
The biggest adjustment I had to make in college was how to deal with all of the free time. It's the first time no one's standing over you telling you what to do or where to be for large chunks of your day.
It doesn't mean you have to study for eight hours a day, but it does mean that you should set up a basic schedule for yourself. If you have an hour in between classes, why not get your reading out of the way instead of playing video games or playing on Facebook? Lots of people would stay awake until late hours and then sleep until 1 p.m. This is probably not a good schedule to keep.
The main thing is to be conscious of how you're spending all that free time, so that you can wrestle control of it from the forces of procrastination.
Good things about dorm life:
There's always people around.
It's the last time you'll not have to pay for utilities. Enjoy the 'free' internet, electricity and cable while it lasts!
Bad things about dorm life:
There's always people around.
You'll share a bathroom in some fashion. Definitely get a shower caddy to haul all your stuff. And however many towels you think is enough, get a couple extra, because you'll probably go longer than you should between laundry trips.
College is the first time you get to take the classes you want. Go ahead and take a couple fun things mixed in with your major classes.
See your advisor or department office to get the checklist for your major. Right away as a freshman, you can start mapping out the next four years to make sure you're on track and figure out where you can fit in your fun electives.
1) Do what you want. Take the classes that interest you, choose a major that excites you and take some risks if you're not sure. One of my only regrets about college is that I never studied abroad because I let laziness and my relationships with others hold me back. I wish I had been a bit more energized and a bit more selfish when it came to my education.
2) Take part in extracurricular activities. Join the newspaper staff if you like to write or get on an intramural sports team if you like to keep active. Joining professional organizations at the college level is also a great idea because, in some cases, that means you get the discounted membership rate for life.
3) Don't be afraid to ditch things if they're not working out. I joined a sorority for a semester and I hated it, so I quit. I started taking a design class and became quickly aware that it wouldn't be worth my time, so I withdrew from the course. I'm not saying you shouldn't apply yourself; I am saying that some things just aren't worth the aggravation. You'll know what those things are pretty quickly after you encounter them.
4) Get yourself on a schedule. Figure out when you're in class, when you're working and when you're studying. Don't forget to pencil in time for fun. I always knew that I would be working on the school newspaper every Wednesday night, but I also knew I would be at my favorite bar with my friends every Monday night. Having at least a loose idea of what you're doing when means that you'll rarely have to skip the fun stuff.
5) Take advantage of internships and other career-training programs whenever you can, and start as soon as you can. Though internships look good on your resume, they also serve a higher purpose in that they give you a taste of what you'll be doing for a living if you remain on your current path. You want to start early because it's way better to figure out that your chosen major isn't for you during the first two years of college then, say, the summer before (or after) your senior year. It's still possible to fine-tune your plans at that time, but it's way easier to do an overall switch early on.
6) College is an amazing experience. Because I went to school about 800 miles away from my home, my friends became my family there. I know these people will be there for me for the rest of my life. Cherish the experience and create memories. Sometimes grabbing a burger at 2 a.m. IS more important than last-minute cramming or getting eight hours of sleep. I don't remember all the papers I got As on or all the tests I aced. I do remember the sometimes life-changing adventures that I had with the people I met along the way.

Some big things I would do differently if I woke up tomorrow and found that it was the day after high school graduation: live on campus and culminate friendships/relationships with students AND instructors, visit a counselor every semester and talk to him or her about what my current plans are (not just sit back and be told it's time to take this class, this class, and this class), study abroad (I have a hard time recommending the Spanish program at SFSU now because I was NEVER informed about studying abroad, and as my family's first college student in over forty years, I had NO CLUE what typical college milestones were), and take an internship or two or three (this once again goes back to bad counselors and not knowing college milestones).
However, the most important thing I've learned about college: get in, get out in four years is not for everyone. If you find that your college isn't a good fit, it's okay to change schools. If you don't think you can finish in four years, it's okay to take an extra semester or two. If you no longer feel energized by your major or minor, it's okay to find something else. And if you find that college just isn't for you at all, that's okay too. You might find each other somewhere down the road, and there are plenty of ways to live happily without a BA.
June 8th, 2009 at 2:16 pm
Thanks, ladies - I've passed this on to my mom for her mentee. I'm struck by how much our advice still resonates for those of us "older folks." Don't be afraid to change direction if a situation isn't working out. Take advantage of opportunities for hands-on learning. Schedule your time so you can balance work and play. These are things I'm still applying to my life…or at least trying to.
At the age of 28, I went back to kindergarten. I needed to get my life back on track, and I wanted to start over from the very beginning.
Over several months, I repeated my education, from kindergarten to college. I spent the months that followed learning how to grow up. I'm still learning.
This site is a place for me to tell my story of education, and for you to tell yours: our experiences past and present, and our vision for how it could look in the future.

Interview: Adam Scott of 'Bachelorette'
On raunchy comedy, 'Parks and Recreation,' the Catalina Wine Mixer and more.
With a debauched comedy attitude that suggests it's not so much trying to tickle your funnybone as rip it from your side and backstab you to death with it, "Batchelorette" stars Kirsten Dunst, Isla Fisher and Lizzy Kaplan as three friends who reunite by ruining a friend's wedding. Adam Scott is the guy that got away for Kaplan, but what makes the film worthy of note is how the couple's reunion plays sharp and mean before getting real and tough -- including comedy digressions like some light pick-pocketing and a beloved Scottish '90s hit single. We spoke with Scott in Los Angeles.
MSN Movies: When the director tells you that you're going to be wearing a disproportionate length of stubble in this film to rightly convey your character's skeeviness, is that a good jump on your part?
Adam Scott: Um, what?
When you find that your character's going to be unshaven…
… and that is a specific device to kind of suggest skeeviness, is that like a quick set of cheap notes for your characterization?
No. I think that was just because I was shooting "Parks" at the same time so I couldn't shave. I don't think it had anything to do with skeeviness, but if that's how it read, then fantastic.
How quick a shoot was it?
Well, I think the whole thing was like five or six weeks and I was just kind of coming in and out because I was shooting the show,, so I would fly in for a couple of days and then come back a week later and shoot a scene or two and then just kind of back and forth.
When you're literally being flown in, is that remarkably confusing insofar as you're not quite sure where everybody else is or where everyone else is connected to?
Everyone else in the movie and like …
Yeah, in terms of their pacing of scenes and you just get flown in briefly.
No, I mean, you know all my stuff is with Lizzie pretty much, and we've worked together a lot, so we kind of always kind of click in with each other and have a great time working together. And Leslye's a really easygoing director so it was actually really relaxed and fun.
It is worth noting that certainly between this and "Party Down," you spend a lot of time macking on Miss Caplan.
Has it gotten to the point where there's no preamble? Just one quick blast of breathspray and getting to the job?
No. I mean stuff like that's always awkward just 'cause there's a crew and we're friends so it's kind of weird, but we just happened to work on two jobs where we're a couple so it just kind of ended up that way.
But was part of you going, "C'mon, give me a shot at a scene where the chemistry's with Dunst or Fisher or Kyle Bornheimer somebody, anybody else?"
(laughs) Yeah, Bornheimer looks like he's a great kisser.
He just has that look like he'd understand.
All kidding about kissing Bornheimer aside, do you find that in a film like "Bachelorette" which is sort of about crossing the gulf between maturity and immaturity, is that pretty much gold for a comedic actor?
Yeah, I guess it is. I mean, you know, it's a time in life everybody has to go through, and I personally think there's nothing funnier than someone with way too much confidence who has no reason to have confidence and a lot of that is immaturity. So yeah, I think that it's kind of great kind of ripe material, you know?
When a film does as well as this did at Sundance, people talking about it what have you, and then it gets released in August, does it drop off of your mental radar until it comes back up when you go, "Yes, I have to talk about that film and take part in other people's enjoyment of it"?
No, I don't think so. I think that, you know, Sundance is an important festival for a lot of reasons, and for a movie like this it's important to just get kind of people interested in it and start getting a little publicity. But I think the public by and large doesn't really pay that much attention. It's not like people in the entertainment industry and certainly the entertainment press pay a lot of attention to it, but I think as far as the public at large goes you're kind of starting from scratch when it ends up coming out no matter what the movie is.
Right. You create this big buzz in a relatively small space, which is still deserved, but when you take it out to the actual world it can be that you pretty start over from zero.
Yeah, pretty much. I mean it just depends on what the movie is, but it's an important starting point but I think it's probably just different for every movie, too.
I always ask people what is the moment which you're most often recognized on an unsolicited level? Like, do people walk up to you and say, "Are we having fun yet?" Do people walk up to you and say, "Hey! 'Piranha'!"? What do you people say to you? Is it mostly "Parks and Rec"?
Yeah, "Parks and Rec," "Party Down," or "Step Brothers."
Have you ever actually attended the Catalina Wine Mixer?
Have I ever what?
Actually attended the Catalina Wine Mixer.
Other than when we were filming it, no.
You just didn't buy into all the hype?
(For) the Catalina Wine Mixer? There could never be enough hype for the Catalina Wine Mixer.
Working on a film like this, does it give you a rough sense of how you feel about the mechanics of social circumstances like this? Doing so many awkward social circumstances, whether it's a business meeting, a date, a wedding ... Does that give you a better sense of how to behave in those real like circumstances or do you just make different and more exciting errors?
Oh, I see. Yeah, you know, I guess I just always feel -- I'm usually uncomfortable no matter what so when I need to behave that way on a show or movie or something it's usually just sometimes an expression of how I'm actually feeling anyway so it's just a place to be able to place it tangibly, which is very handy.
With this and with "Friends With Kids," do you feel like you're sort of moving into this kind of off-kilter romantic lead?
I don't know. You know, that's not really for me to say. I don't feel any different, but yeah, I have no idea, no idea whatsoever.
Like you're just completely divorced from any perception the industry may or may not have of you?
Well, it's a difficult thing to gauge when you have no real perspective on it, you know? And if you get caught up in combing the Internet for what people think of you or how people perceive you, I think that's a slippery slope. And so I think what I try and do and kind of what I've seen people that I know and respect do is just kind of keep your down and try do things that interests you, that you think you could do a good job with and just sort of try and take it from there and not become bogged down with industry perception and stuff like that. If you start playing into something like that, it could be sort of a trap for yourself.
Right, so you're not walking around saying out loud, "When the hell am I going to get an action film?"
I do not do that, no.
That's not something you're empirically interested in?
Walking around shouting, "When am I going to get an action film?"
No, being in an action film. (Laughs) I'm not asking if you're interested in walking around and shouting. I'm sure that's not how you comport yourself. But I mean…
You know, I just kind of take things project by project. I mean, I love action films, you know, good action films. So I would never say never about anything certainly.
What do you hope people take away from "Bachelorette?" What do you hope people get out of it?
You know, it's just really, I hope it's just a fun, it sounds really corny, but I hope it's just a fun night at the movies for people. I think it's a really funny movie, and I think it's great to see yet another female-driven comedy, just female-driven movie period, out there. There aren't enough of them, and I'm just glad to be a part of one of them and it's a good one.
One final question. I was, of course, going over your career in your IMDB page and a random commenter said, "Looks Canadian." Do you consider this a slight to yourself or an unwarranted slight against Canadians?
Someone said what?
Somebody noted that you look "Canadian."
Look Canadian?
I'm wondering if you feel this is a slight or if you feel it's a slight towards Canadians or if you feel that just, you know…
(laughs) Well it's certainly not a slight against me. Canada's awesome so I would say if anything it's a compliment to me and a slight against them.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Geiss: they've already run out of unique situations when using 2 tanks. So why not change it up? Ultra already kinda has this in 25 man with extra people soaking the debuff. Nef had to have a DPS grab adds unless you brought a 3rd tank.
My biggest problem with this whole thing is that some people seem to not get how hard it is for a guild to keep a 25 man roster. My guild has been unable to get close thanks to the 25 man guilds with their faster legendaries and faster hearing STEALING people from us. We get people geared up, start getting close to either 2 10 mans or being able to PUG the rest on a 25 and 2 or 3 leave because they get promised better loot.
Personally, I think 25 man raids should just go the way of 40 mans. It feels more personal and heroic having a small strike team than a huge mob.
I am pretty sure this is going I get me darkened fast by the 25 man elitists, but it's been how I feel for a while.

Ultimate road-warrior tech at CeBIT
Summary: We've spent the week walking the 30-plus halls at CeBIT to pick out the best pieces of kit for the serious road warrior — whether your need is small, light and cheap or a bit more esoteric, there will be something here for you
For those long flights to CeBIT, this General Mobile G777 phone could come in handy. It has fairly standard features for the most part, with GPRS support and 3-megapixel camera. The notable exception is the headset to the left in the picture below, which makes this phone the device to take on longhaul flights, particularly if your company policy dictates that you travel in economy.
The headset contains two tiny screens with a lens arrangement that projects a image of the phone's QVQA screen onto the retina of each eye. While there's nothing new about such headsets — they have been around for at least a decade in one form or another — it is novel to find one attached to a phone.
A Micro CD card slot means full-length movies can be watched in total privacy on a plane; the example on the stand was showing The Hills Have Eyes II.

The purpose of this mission is to help outdoor mobility for disabled Veterans at a local level. Even small donations from a small percentage of the community would allow us to purchase Trackchairs for Veterans in need. We have joined forces with AllenForce and their "VETANK" program to help improve the lives of our heroes.
This endeavor was started by the president of Second City Web Design, Inc. in Naperville. He has family that has served in the military including one family member actively serving. "If given an opportunity to change lives, I feel you should take a proactive approach. Giving back to those who have given so much for our freedom is an honor," he said.

Male Privilege #14
Nobody tries to take away your right to use a condom. Nobody hammers into your head that you should feel guilty and shameful about preventing your gift-from-God sperm from fertilizing an egg and thus ensuring the birth of a beautiful child. No politician tells you using condoms makes you a slut. Nobody bombs a convenience store that sells condoms, threatens people who put condom vending machines in areas, or attacks politicians who support condom use.
I took a picture of a condom vending machine in a prominent area while I was in Tuscany a few weeks ago. Tuscany, which is in Italy, the most Catholic country in the world. You could buy condoms. Cheap. In the open. No muss, no fuss.
Male privilege is a hell of a drug.

'Think Like a Man' Banned in France Due To an All Black Cast
well… that's unsurprising of you France….
So, Jerry Ferrara is black now?
or what about that guy who played the Hapily married man?
I mean, I don't support shit about the film… but, um, and all-Black cast is an issue for a fucking Western European country? THE FUCK.
I read the article, and it was apparently banned for a QUOTE "lack of diversity in it's cast".
France, THIS will make me freedom fry your ass.

"In the pantheon of TV mothers, Betty Draper may be the worst. She doesn't seem to like her children at all and in fact seems determined to make them non-entities in their own home. (We haven't even mentioned the CONSTANT drinking and smoking around her kids — and while pregnant. I also was shocked by scenes of her dieting while pregnant.)"
Is 'Mad Men's' Betty Draper the worst TV mom ever? | Momania: A Blog for Busy Moms
I had to roll my eyes at this. Many women drank and smoked through their pregnancies in the 60s. It wasn't uncommon or scandalous, and that's hardly a sign that a mother didn't care about her children, at least not at the time. A lot of moms did the same.
(via robot-heart-politics)
Seriously. So ridiculous. I think my grandma smoked a pack a day (or more) while pregnant with all of her kids and gained almost no weight. Why don't people seem to understand that there were different standards back then? Different attitudes towards health issues and the like. My mom told me that doctors used to lecture pregnant women all the time about how they should be watching their weight.
(via bluebears)
Different mores and standards back then, absolutely. As for Betty not seeming to like her kids, add a laugh track to her lines about Sally and she's a proto-Dooce hip, wry anti-mommy mom that are just so effing cool to be these days.

Lamar Odom's mistress "roommate" Polina Polonsky says the athlete definitely fashioned crack pipes at her place during the six weeks they lived together.
Recent photos of Odom purchasing Chore Boy scrubbing pads led us to believe he wasn't cleaning pots and pans, but making homemade crack pipes.
Now Polina Polonsky has basically confirmed as much.
Polina, as people who have followed Lamar's saga know, hooked up with Odom in June and July after meeting him at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood.
He essentially moved into her apartment for six weeks after that, right around when reports of his estrangement from wife Khloe Kardashian began surfacing.
During that time, Polina says he was doing crack.

Old Salem Museums & Gardens whisks visitors to the cozy streets of a reconstructed 18th-century Moravian town that encompasses 100 restored and reclaimed buildings and expansive, pristine gardens. As they stroll through the 90-acre homage to early Americana, visitors can interact with hands-on activities, such as the German paper-cutting art of Scherenschnitte or the colonial tradition of libeling a governor with accusations of actually governing. Old Salem's horticultural marvels include the Miksch Garden—a living illustration of Moravian subsistence farming—and the Family Gardens of Salt Street, which demonstrate the innovative practice of seed saving. In addition to year-round attractions, special exhibits rotate through town, celebrating momentous occasions, notable people, and game-changing presidential pets. After traversing the grounds, visitors can peruse souvenirs at a number of gift shops or sidle into Winkler's Bakery for a piece of renowned Moravian sugar cake.
Nestled behind the LJVM Coliseum—an arena that has hosted events ranging from the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship to Billy Joel concerts—stands The Annex Ice Rink. The ice rink hosts public ice-skating, hockey leagues, and events seven months out of the year. Visitors can strap on their own cleaver-healed boots or a pair of rentals and take to the ice for free-skate sessions, youth and adult hockey, or figure-skating lessons. A live DJ serenades skaters during Friday Night Ice Jam, providing a fun soundtrack as skaters loop the official-size rink. The skating center also opens for groups and special events such as birthdays and office-ditch days.
At Big Shotz Tavern, chefs celebrate American comfort food with a vast menu of pizzas, burgers, and barbecue. They season and marinate chicken wings in homemade rubs, and whip up sauces and dips from scratch.
A bustling, lively atmosphere prevails in the spacious dining room. Big-screen TVs hover above the wraparound bar, and, in the warmer months, musicians serenade adorable diners with spinach in their teeth on the outdoor brick patio. The restaurant also hosts a weekly trivia night.
For more than a decade, The Hitting Zone has helped baseball and softball players hone their slugging skills with top-notch batting cages. Its newly renovated facility includes seven new batting cages, new token machines, professional-quality turf, and enhanced lighting. While three cages devour tokens and spit out speedy pitches, schedule-savvy batters claim one of four regular cages for a designated hour of ball-pummeling against a Cy Young android lookalike.
Angell Hair Salon treats tired tresses and crafts expert coifs with a full range of services. After a complimentary consultation to assess the best hue strategy for your locks, color connoisseurs can effortlessly transform dishwater blonde into sparkling platinum or sandbox brown into bombshell red with all-over color ($65), partial highlights ($65), or full highlights ($95).
The Piedmont Chamber Singers' volunteer vocalists enrapture audiences with melodious performances of timeless choral melodies. Concertgoers revel in the beguiling acoustics of the Ardmore Baptist Church as the ensemble opens with a sample of musical appetizers by French composers Saint-Saëns and Ravel. Singers fill the air with the ethereal, contemplative Requiem by Gabriel Fauré, which signals the conclusion to the current choral season and the return of bike cops' seersucker uniforms. As part of their encouragement of choral-music education in public schools, PCS will share the spotlight with Bella Voce, Reagan High School's premiere choral ensemble.

Gulf Traffic 2003 floor space up 350 percent
Gulf Traffic 2002, the region's major vertical conference and exhibition for the Middle East's traffic and transport industry held in Dubai for the first time last month, will move to a new venue next year to cater for an anticipated 350 percent increase in floor space demand.
According to IIR Exhibitions & Conferences, the event's organizers, Gulf Traffic 2003 will be held between December 8-11, 2003, at the Dubai International Exhibition Center (DIEC) across a floor space of 1,800 square meters, as early exhibitor bookings are strong.
Dubai Municipality is also expected to renew its chief sponsor commitment for Gulf Traffic 2003. According to a survey conducted during and after this year's inaugural event, an overwhelming number of international exhibitors have verbally expressed their intent to be present at Gulf Traffic 2003. — (menareport.com)

Converting free 'Windows 7' Server into a workstation
Summary: Students can download Windows Server 2008 R2 for free. Turn it into 'Windows 7' in only a few steps.
TOPICS: Windows, Microsoft, Operating Systems, Servers, Software
10 of 26Image
The features are incredibly important, unlike the roles which are not. These features will include some of the basic Windows 7 functionality that you would have had, but are not installed by standard because those using a server operating system rarely need them.
In the Initial Configuration Tasks window, select the Add features option and make sure you select the following: .NET Framework 3.5.1, BranchCache, Desktop Experience, Ink and Handwriting Services (only if you have a tablet/touch PC), Internet Printing Client, Peer Name Resolution Protocol, Quality Windows Audio Video Experience, Simple TCP/IP Services, Windows Biometric Framework (only if you have a fingerprint reader), Windows Server Backup Features, Wireless LAN Service and XPS Viewer.
Please note: any feature you install which attemps to install a role (it will say so), make sure that you do not accept this. You may have to do this a couple of times, but you will end up with what you need without anything unnecessary churning up your precious computer memory in the long run.
To read more about this, head on over to the ZDNet iGeneration blog.
Once you've restarted and the Initial Configuration Tasks window appears, make sure that the features enabled under the heading are there. The above roles should be non-existent if possible. In this screenshot, it was necessary to install File Services but this won't have a significant impact on the overall performance or memory usage of the computer, as the file server aspect simply won't be used.
To read more about this, head on over to the ZDNet iGeneration blog.
Now we need to disable the annoying Shutdown Event Tracker. To do this, go to Start then Run, and type in gpedit.msc and hit OK. As you are logged in as the administrator (which will be changed later to help secure your computer) it will load straight up. Under the left hand pane, go to Computer Configuration -> Administrative Templates then click on the System folder.
Scroll down and double click on Display Shutdown Event Tracker. Click the Disabled radio button then Apply and OK. The Shutdown Event Tracker will no longer be displayed when you shutdown.

Obfuscation of the day, John Hancock edition
Matt Yglesias wonders whether he should invest some of his 401(k) in John Hancock's International Value Fund. Naturally, one of the key pieces of information about the fund that he wants to know is its expense ratio: what kind of fees does it charge?
Yglesias eventually found the relevant bit of the John Hancock website; it runs to 421 more or less incomprehensible words. (Exempli gratia: "For internally-managed Funds advised and sub-advised exclusively by John Hancock's affiliates, the total fees John Hancock and its affiliates receive from these Funds may be higher than those advised or sub-advised exclusively by unaffiliated mutual fund companies. These fees can come from the Fund or trust's Rule 12b-1, sub-transfer agency, management, AMC or other fees, and may vary from Fund to Fund.")
The upshot of all the prose? If you want to find out the fund's expense ratio, you have to phone up John Hancock and ask them to send you its most recent "Returns and Fees" document — which of course isn't simply available online, and which is subject to change in unpredictable ways in future.
This kind of thing seems tailor-made for the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to crack down on. Arthur Levitt, for one, would surely approve:
For years, I have pressed for "plain English" in financial documents that go to the investing public, but with only mixed success. The problem, it appears, is that such efforts get tugged into the ditch by the irresistible pull of legal jargon. The language of lawyers is not spoken by Aunt Edna, who rightly senses that if something sounds complicated, it is. The advice of Will Rogers comes to mind: "I love words but I don't like strange ones. You don't understand them, and they don't understand you. Old words is like old friends—you know 'em the minute you see 'em."
You wouldn't buy an investment from a stranger, so why buy one wrapped in strange language?
It's not just the mutual fund companies who deserve the blame here — it's also the 401(k) administrators at places like Yglesias's employer, who ignore the degree to which the options they're choosing are readily comprehensible to their employees.
There are three main reasons why investments in 401(k) plans significantly underperform investments in defined-benefit plans. The first is that 401(k) investors have to rotate into relatively low-risk fixed-income instruments as retirement approaches and their risk appetite declines; defined-benefit plans never need to do that. The second is that defined-benefit plans have the ability to diversify into many more asset classes than 401(k) plans can. And the third is that there are multiple points at which 401(k) performance can be scuppered: at the fund-manager level, at the corporate-benefits level, and of course at the individual level. Bad choices at any one of those levels are enough to result in severe underperformance; and it's entirely possible that you can have bad choices at all three points.
Will the CFPB have the power or the inclination to clean up the mess that is the 401(k) system? I doubt it. But if it doesn't, no one will. And the likes of John Hancock will continue to obfuscate their customers for no good reason.
Update: Stephen Lubben points out that under Dodd-Frank, the CFPB has no oversight of investments: there's no way they can be of use here.
I agree that most documents filed with the SEC are egregiously incomprehensible to ordinary folks. Did you know that Registered Investment Advisers now MUST file their main registration form (ADV part 2) in plain English? I hope that all SEC documentation follows suit.
Here's the SEC's guide to Plain English, if you're curious: http://www.sec.gov/pdf/handbook.pdf
[I will take the liberty of cross-posting a comment I made at MY's blog:]
It bears considering whether the best place to look for the information that you want about this fund is the fund adviser's web site. Regardless of how eager (or reluctant) the fund adviser may be to tell you the things you want to know, the fund adviser is going to concentrate on complying with SEC disclosure rules and providing preemptive disclosures to avoid lawsuits. You should probably look elsewhere for consumer advice.
In particular, if you run the fund ticker symbol for the John Hancock International Value Fund (JIVIX) through Google, it will show you the expense ratio immediately.
This state of affairs is not unique to mutual funds. Want to know if the Ford Focus is a good buy and a reliable car? Don't go to the Ford website, which will mostly tell you about what colors and options are available (useful in its own way, but it won't answer your questions). Go to edmunds.com or cars.com or somewhere like that.
Full disclosure: I work occasionally for mutual fund advisers and trustees.
[I would add in respect of this comment: "And the likes of John Hancock will continue to obfuscate their customers for no good reason." The fact is that there are all kinds of lawsuits about fee disclosure language in mutual fund prospectuses, and I would not want to be the John Hancock attorney who suggested omitting the sentences you suggest are examples of pointless obfuscation.]
(1) It is true that individual investors tend to be more conservative than the pension funds, however this does not by itself explain the gap in performance.
(2) Asset diversification is a valuable tool — but it serves primarily to reduce risk, not boost returns.
(3) Anecdotal evidence suggests this is the key point. Small investors often panic when the market falls because they don't understand the markets in which their money is playing. So when something frightening happens, they pull out (at the worst possible time). Pension funds tend to shrug that off — they may not take advantage of a drop by reallocating into the bargain-priced sector, but neither do they flee.
The key to investment success is understanding your investments. The flip side of that is to invest in what you understand. If you do not understand a certain type of security, then you are likely to buy or sell at the worst possible time (while those who DO understand the security will eat your cake).
Seems to me those pension fund managers who were investing in MBS might do well to heed this advice as well?
Mutual funds (i.e. "professional management") are no substitute for knowing what you are doing. If you aggregate 100 different stocks that you don't understand, you end up with a diversified mutual fund that you don't understand. And you'll still sell into the teeth of a market panic.
I should add that understanding all 500 stocks in the S&P500 would be a Herculean task (and one that no professional analyst would attempt). If you invest in a stock index, you by definition do not understand your investment — and only have the vaguest idea whether it is safe, risky, overpriced, underpriced… Estimating its value in ten years is even trickier, so much so that people tend to fall back on models rather than attempting a bottom-up analysis.
Read Felix' various comments on "the stock market" and you will see proof of my point. (Not his fault — nobody can hope to understand a system that large.) If I had so little understanding of my investments, I would be hunkered down under a table after the volatility of the last couple years!
I agree with alkali that lawyers are probably at least partly involved in obfuscating official documents.
Let me push back a bit against a point from TFF that is often made by Felix about not understanding large aggregations; perhaps 3 or 4 years ago (and to a lesser extent today) people have used diversification as an excuse for not understanding investments well enough, but there is truth to both 1) you can never understand an investment perfectly, but there's a lot of ground between there and understanding only that its ticker symbol is the same as the initials of your first crush, and 2) that understanding each $1B of possible fluctuation in future earnings of each of several companies is less valuable the more diversified you are. Unless correlations are literally 1, you gain something from diversification in terms of risk management, and the optimal granularity of information-seeking presumably drops.
Wealthfront recently published with the help of Lipper Inc. (the leading mutual fund market research form), a detailed analysis of all the fees an investor pays in an average actively managed mutual fund. When you include all the components (including the hard to find ones) and use an arithmetic average (rather than an asset weighted average which makes the fees look a lot lower), the total average actively managed mutual fund fees is 3.01% of assets under management. Please see https://www.wealthfront.com/blog/activel y-managed-mutual-fund-expenses/ for details
dWj, good point on diversification as risk-management, but you still need to know all the stocks in your portfolio well enough to know that they are sound companies. Diversifying into bad companies is always a bad idea.
Despite my polemy, we have roughly half our stock investments in a broadly diversified low-cost fund (that essentially acts as a composite domestic/international index). We might not have chosen that, but it is simply the way the system works. The rest of our stock investments are divided ~15 different ways, with no single security comprising more than 5% of total assets.
For me, working alone, that seems a reasonable balance between diversification and confusion. Had I a larger allocation to JNJ this year, I would have been sorely unhappy with the results!
"Will the CFPB have the power or the inclination to clean up the mess that is the 401(k) system? I doubt it. But if it doesn't, no one will."
Any plan sponsor who dosen't clearly disclose all fees paid by plan participants can expect to hear from the department of labor. I'm on the work group that manages our 401k and we get updates from our service providers all the time to make sure our disclosure is compliant with ERISA regs.
I'm sorry, but Alkali's comment is nonsense.
Lawyers undoubtedly had a lot to do with John Hancock's windy evasiveness, but even if I'm willing to believe that all that boilerplate is needed to avoid litigation, I'm still left with the fact that John Hancock won't give you the number. You've got to make a phone call.
And there's a simple control to be made here: I checked out a Vanguard fund — Explorer Value Fund, a non-indexed small cap value fund. It took me all of 30 seconds to find that the expense ratio was 0.56%, and that the industry average for similar funds was 1.48%.
So, is Vanguard simply being reckless? Do they hold down costs by refusing to employ counsel? Is John Hancock's ratio vastly more difficult to calculate?
Or is it possible that they're being evasive simply because they don't want you to know the number?
y2kurtus, you're missing the point. The plan sponsor can and does disclose all fees paid by the plan participants, but does so in a manner that is utterly opaque to even educated employees who are contributing their wages to the plan.
As such, the disclosure, while meeting the letter of the law/regulations, is useless to the end-user of the information, who wants to know what portion of their contributions, that is to say their hard-earned wages, is being siphoned off to support the bolivian marching powder habit of some Wall St. type.
Yes, y2kurtus, you are way off base on this one…
Back in my ignorant youth, at my first job, I had a salesman try to sell me a 403b deferred compensation plan. Turned out it had annuity fees of 1.5% a year on top of management fees, for a total cost in the 2.5% to 3.0% range. Yet to figure this out, I had to piece together information from multiple paragraphs, spaced throughout a twelve-page agreement.
Had I signed on to that, and stayed in the plan (there were exit fees as well, though I couldn't figure them out) I would have given away well over $100,000. Ouch!
Bury a disclosure in enough fine print and you effectively aren't disclosing anything at all.
Perhaps I am "way off base" because my bank is so far ahead of the curve that we are a golden role model for others to follow… but I doubt it.
Our ADP administered 401k plan website clearly discloses the exact expence ratio paid by participants for all of our options. I'm told that ADP is a top player in the 401k admin space and I'm sure everyone they serve has the same interface we do.
We have been advised by ADP and others that anything less than that full and straightforward disclosure is afoul of DOL guidelines. If you click on the link I included in my previous post and stroll around the DOL website you'll find that clear and simple disclosure of fees born by participants is a big area of focus for the DOL.
Maybe I am 15 years out of date, y2kurtus? All I know is that I was given a hard sell by somebody invited into my school, encouraged to sign a sheaf of papers without having had the chance to read them, and the damning numbers were NOT prominently displayed in the documents.
If that is no longer the industry standard, then I apologize for the slander. Yet I continue to read articles of people preying on senior citizens — so I'm skeptical.
A company which offeres a 401k plan to it's employees owes those employees a fidicuary standard of care in the selection of investment options and the disclosure of the costs born by participants. This became a huge issue when the supreem court allowed participants to sue providers in class action law suits.
http://www.usatoday.com/money/perfi/reti rement/2008-02-20-401k-scotus_N.htm
The very shady industry standard TFF described is in my massively biased opnion still standard practice for annuity sales… here's 20+ pages of fine print… sign here… yes I just made an 8% comission… BARF!
Like always there are probably some very honest and ethical agents out there… but in the world of annuities the ratio of bad apples to good apples has been unacceptablely high in my expeiernce.

Updates in this section will be intermittent from here out, but Ill be more reliable on Twitter. Please follow me there.
July 2012
Its been quite a while since my last update. Parenthood will do that. But its been an enjoyably busy year: I wrote an article for New York magazine about the migration of violent crime in America from big cities to smaller towns and suburbs, and about an FBI agent named Jimmy Gagliano who was dispatched to the tiny community of Newburgh, NY to confront a murder epidemic. In January The New Yorker published my account of a decades-long environmental lawsuit against Chevron over environmental contamination in Ecuador. Then I spent several months delving into the business model of Mexicos Sinaloa cartel for a cover story in The New York Times Magazine.
For the last several months Ive been working with the PBS show Frontline to expand some of my research on the Sinaloa cartel into a documentary, which should hopefully air sometime in early 2012.
Director Stephen Gaghan, producer Richard Brown, and the terrific novelist and screenwriter Nic Pizzolatto are working on the film version of The Snakehead, about which more soon.
This spring I joined The New Yorker as a staff writer, which I couldnt be more thrilled about, so Ill be writing a lot for the magazine and the website in the coming months. Im also excited to be joining the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars this fall, for a year-long fellowship, during which I hope to make some progress on a new book, which is still taking shape but deals with the dynamics of corruption.

LINDSAY LOHAN and her breasts posed for celebrity photographer, TERRY RICHARDSON in a desperate bid to win the title role for ELIZABETH TAYLOR's Lifetime TV biopic.
LiLo did her best to channel the late, lamented Liz at her most sensual with a series of poses that photographer pal Richardson was only too happy to oblige…
And such was LiLo's zeal at showing Lifetime producers that she, not Megan Fox, is right one for the job, she even had herself photographed with "Furious Love," a book detailing Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton's love affair upon which the TV special will be based.
While Lindsay's been getting more scripts than she's had than in years when she'd been an utter hot mess, it appears she really, really wants to be Liz Taylor. How else would you explain this out-and-out campaign to win the role that she and Megan Fox are up for.
It was announced earlier that Lindsay was slated for the part, but Lifetime producers later decided it was going to be a toss-up between her and Megan Fox to get some press out of the whole production.
So who do you think will make a better Liz Taylor? Lindsay Lohan, who'll have to shuttle back and forth from filming to L.A. where she has to show up for progress reports with her judge? Or naturally brunette Megan Fox, who'll need some boob padding to achieve Taylor's considerable chest?
