Denver Post Game Notes
Jan. 11, 2006
Box Score
Photo Gallery
With the 79-73 loss, Northern Colorado falls to 2-17 on the season, while Denver improves to 9-6. Northern Colorado is 2-3 since the Christmas Break; Denver has won four in a row.
Denver now leads the all-time series 70-40. They have won 12 of the last 13 in the series; UNC last won on Dec. 11, 1993 in Greeley.
The Bears made a big improvement over last years game, when they trailed by 20 at the half before losing to 19 at home vs. the Pioneers.
UNC and DU will meet one more time this season, on Feb. 15 in Denver in a game that will be broadcast on Fox Sports Rocky Mountain.
The Bears used a starting lineup of
Matt Kline
Sean Taibi
Erik Olson
Dwayne Birden
Kirk Archibeque
for the sixth time this season and second consecutive game.
Denver used a 10-0 run late in the first half, to turn a 26-20 deficit into a 30-26 advantage.
In the first half, DU outscored the Bears 26-12 in the paint and 10-3 in points off turnovers (the Bears committed five first half miscues).
Archibeque had 13 first half points, eclipsing the 10 points he had the entire game last season against Denver.
Denver used a 4-0 run out of halftime to built its largest lead of the game at 45-37 with 19:05 to play in the game. But the Bears used a 8-0 run, keyed by four points from Archibeque, to tie the game at 45. Following a Taibi jumper with 15:24 to play, the Bears led by three. But Antonio Porch scored at the 13:23 mark to give the Pioneers a 54-52 lead, and they would not trail again.
DU would lead by as many as six points the rest of the way. UNC cut the lead to 70-68 on a jumper by Archibeque with 2:47 to play, but they could get no closer.
The All-American candidate Nicholson led all scorers with 33 points and 14 rebounds in 39 minutes of action. He had 10 rebounds in the second half. DaShawn Walker (14) and Andrew Carpenter (11) also scored in double figures for Denver.
Archibeque had a season-high 27 points (12-of-18 shooting) to lead Northern Colorado. He scored 20 in his last game, marking the second time in his career he had back-to-back 20-point games.
Taibi added a season-high 24 points, hitting 7-of-14 shots and 4-of-8 3-pointers. He increased his 3-point total to 48 on the season (tops on the team and among independent players) and has hit a 3-pointer in every game this season. He is 11th nationally in 3-pointers made. Taibi has 13 multiple 3-point games this season (out of 19 total games).
With Archibeque and Taibi both hitting the 20-point plateau, it marked the first time the Bears had that happen in the same game since Archibeque and
Erik Olson
each scored 20-plus in a win over Longwood on Jan. 10 of last season.
Kline dished out nine assists, pushing his career total to 230, moving him into eighth place on the Bears career assist list. He has had seven or more assists in four of his last seven games.
After hitting only 31% from the field in his last 11 games, Birden snapped out of a shooting slump by hitting on 4-of-7 shots and scoring eight points. He also grabbed eight rebounds, the third time in his last four games he has had eight or more caroms.
Northern Colorado matched its season low with 10 turnovers (also done against Eastern Michigan). The Bears have had 15 or fewer turnovers in four of its last five games (after not having fewer than 15 in the first 14 games of the season).
The Bears hit 11-of-13 (84.6%) from the free throw line, the second straight game they have shot well from the charity stripe. The Bears hit 75% of their attempts on Monday night against UC-Colorado Springs. Prior to the UCCS game, they hit 65% or lower from the free throw line in 7 of its prior 8 games.
UNC hit 52.8% from the field for the game, the second straight game they have hit 50% or better. That is the first time they have accomplished that feat this season.

How to Survive a Vegas Weekend
Las Vegas is at the top of many people's lists for a summer getaway, with tourism peaking between Memorial Day and Labor Day. When Think Like a Man Too, which features Vegas as the backdrop to one of the most epic bachelor/bachelorette parties yet seen on film, drops this Friday, we predict traffic to the legendary will go through the roof. But a weekend of decadence requires preparation. Here's our list of must-haves for surviving Las Vegas...

the first day I went unraw. The food does not look as good as raw food.
Posted on June 30, 2011
My friend is gone and staring today, I am back to raw! I am guessing I will have to go back through detox again for a bit, but it will be worth it. I hate cooked food. To be honest, it is not as good as I remember it and I always feel like shit after I eat it now. In preparation of me moving to San Francisco, I am going to be doing research on raw restaurants and grocers there. I will be posting links very soon.

So I have not been doing raw for the past week because I have a friend visiting me from out of town. I feel bloated and gassy all the time, my skin is braking out like no tomorrow, and I have never been so itchy. I love the person who is staying with me right now, but I am glad that she is leaving soon so I can go back to being raw.
Also, I just found out that I got into school in America. Yeah! I have loved my time in London and defiantly want to move back here for my masters but for now, some fun in the sun will do. One of my concerns about America is that whenever I have vacationed there, I have never felt good after I have ate, even if it was just salad. America has such a bad reputation when it comes to healthy eating, but I am moving to california where they seem to be more open minded and a lot of raw food bloggers/chiefs live.

I went to Dr. Brian Clement talk on Sunday and it was very disappointing. I was there for 2 hours and then left early feeling a bit insulted and that I had wasted £27 and 2 hours of my life. From the way that he talked, I could have never guessed that he had his phd. And for some one who spent all that time in school to get a phd, he made it clear that he thinks that people should not go to school. He kept on repeating that school is useless, teaches you wrong thing, limits you and turn people into destructive humans. I found this a little ironic, seeing that people are paying him to gain knowledge and get taught. He also made it very clear that he is against religion and who ever believes in God is limited and basically a dumb ass. I left after almost 2 hours and in that time he had managed to insult any one who goes to school or believes in God, talk about how one can cure AIDS and cancer by getting rid of their sorrow, and did not once mention nutrition or talk about the raw food diet. What the fuck?!?! I wanted to be enlighten on being healthy through the raw life style, not join some listen and do everything I say and you life will be bliss cult. At the end of the day, I think Dr. Brain Clement is full of shit and should go back to school and pick a different career.

Addicted to Twilight? You're Not Alone!
Reading "Twilight" is like biting into a dark chocolate brownie. You savor every moment, yet your taste buds are never truly satisfied. You're always left wanting more.
Caroline Kruse is a mom addicted to "Twilight." She compares it to a Calgon "take me away" commercial. "For me, 'Twilight' was such an escape," says Kruse. "I couldn't wait for the kids to go to bed so I could crawl under the covers and read my book."
Kruse has read the entire Stephenie Meyer series and visits the fan sites on a regular basis. When she saw the movie with her 15-year-old daughter, Kruse wore a Jacob T-shirt to the theater. "Jacob's a bad boy. I always love the bad boys," says Kruse.
Her daughter turned her on to "Twilight" during a road trip. "I started reading it and finished it on the drive home," says Kruse. "Then I picked up the next one." But she let her daughter read the sequel first. "She introduced me to the books, so I thought it was only fair," say Kruse.
Clearly, it's not just teens that want to sink their teeth into Edward Cullen. But why are moms so obsessed with the "Twilight" saga? "I think everyone can relate to high school no matter how old you are," says Kruse. "It's when you have your first love."
Kruse also confesses "Twilight" has improved her sex life. "A lot of moms are thinking of their husbands as vampires or werewolves, so there's more romance going on," says Kruse. "My husband is a werewolf, but he's not that hairy."
So "Twilight" moms, stop hiding in Forks and embrace your inner Bella Swan! Join momlogic's Twilight Moms group.
"Reading "Twilight" is like biting into a dark chocolate brownie. You savor every moment, yet your taste buds are never truly satisfied. You're always left wanting more."
and then one day you wake up and realize you're addicted and need some very serious help…
Are you kidding me…If there was a group of 30 (or 40) something dad's drooling over two teenage girls the way some of these mom's act over the two leading boys in this movie, they would be looked upon as perverts.
Get a grip…What would you have thought if your mom thought your teen idols were hot?

How to get thicker legs?
i need to get my legs thicker I been doing squats but they made my legs even skinny =[
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
You really can't do anything. Your body is set to the size you are going to be. Your still young so you may fill out more later, but your muscles and such can only get so big based on genetics. Some people are made to be bigger and some are not.
Thank you for your help =]
What Girls Said 3
yyyyyyyy would you want thick legs I have em its not always the funnest because some guys LOVE em and some guys HATE em it gets annoying...kinda like girls with big boobs I guess they don't like em but I want em because I don't have em
Thick thighs are HOT!, why do you care about guys that don't like thick thighs when you know there are guys that LOVE it
Don't worry girls don't give a crap about how your legs look. At least some don't.
Try to build your legs muscles

After a varied career as a computer repairman and yacht captain, Hugh Howey turned his hand to writing. He'd self-published several novels and stories when the sci-fi dystopia WOOL, originally just a novella, found sudden runaway success in 2011. Howey found himself writing sequel after sequel to keep up with reader demand — the latest volume, Dust, was released in August.
Over email, Howey describes WOOL as "like the TV show Lost, except with an ending that makes sense. In the world of WOOL, the planet has grown uninhabitable and the remnants of mankind live in an underground silo," he writes. "When the sheriff of this silo leaves in search of his wife, a mechanic from the lowest levels takes his place. And she begins to uncover the mystery of why they're there and what's really outside."
The silos are horrific, but they're also masterpieces of design; built to last, completely self-contained, for centuries. We find out in the second volume that they were designed by a congressman with a background in architecture — do you also have that kind of experience?
Not formally, but I wish I'd been an architect. I taught myself AutoCAD when I was younger and used to build structures out of foam board like I was a real architect. It goes all the way back to grade school when I used to buy pads of graph paper and draw out intricate house plans. I've always wanted to build things, but I mostly just break them and tear them apart. Writing gives me the opportunity to really create. I get to make entire worlds.
I guess the second half of that question is, how did you approach the world-building? What do silo residents do and have that we don't? Or vice versa? And why?
I really wanted the silo to represent our planet. We live on a giant ball of rock and water, and it's so big that it feels like the resources are limitless, but they aren't. We transmute raw materials into waste, and that will have to end at some point. We also do a terrible job of getting along with our neighbors, even though we're all in this together. So the silo is a microcosm of our world. The story is about real people and real problems. I think that's why it resonates with readers the way it does.
I really like Juliette, one of the main characters, because she's heroic but believably flawed — hotheaded, hyper-focused — in a way you don't often see with female characters.
I have three women in my life who are all amazingly accomplished and incredibly driven. That drive is the secret to all that they've managed to do with their lives; it is also the source of their few failings. I think I share a lot in common with my mother, my sister and my wife. I look up to each of them and try to be like them, and I also see in each of us the ability to charge right past our destinations. Juliette is like this. We admire her, but we wish she knew when to ease up, when to soften her touch, when to let down her guard.
When I create characters, I don't like to allow their genders to define them. One of the problems I see with a lot of strong female characters in fiction is that their strength seems to lie in displaying a masculine toughness. There is so much more than flexing a muscle or knowing how to kick someone's butt. A greater strength, I think, lies in not wanting to fight at all but to find some other method of resolution.
Dystopias often say quite a bit about the society in which they were originally written. Is that the case with WOOL?
I hope so. I certainly tried to inject some of our times and culture into the work. In a lot of ways, the things I write about are timeless. But then we've had the NSA issue crop up, which makes WOOL appear prescient to some degree. I think we have a conundrum right now in that the standard of living has gone up for most people, but the gap between those standards has widened.
If the poor and the middle class (what's left of the latter) have it better than the poor and the middle class of a hundred years ago, that feels like progress. But if the difference between the top and the bottom has grown apart, that creates resentment. It all depends on who you compare yourself to, what you are thankful for, and how much disparity you can stomach. At the time I was writing WOOL, Occupy Wall Street was going on and the Arab Spring was in full effect. People had had enough. WOOL was written in the shadow of that.

Pressing Play
To all of our readers:
It has been too long since our last post. We apologize. Cheech is in China and will have many adventures to share upon her return. I, on the other hand, have just been swamped with my day job. Just know we haven't forgotten you and we definitely have not forgone our nomadic lifestyle nor our penchant for mischief. Stay tuned…. we are soon to press play.
Until Such Time

* Cheech with the Tibetans is a picture of a picture on her phone but I still wanted to give you all a taste of what she's experiencing.

Letter from Zapallal: November 2013
The Regional government invited over 400 schools to take part in a competition "Dance for your Promoción" with various prizes, the top one being all the expenses of the Promoción's leaving fiesta would be paid for by the Region. A highly desirable prize. Our dance group got through to the finals but did not win. However they won S/.1000 for the Promoción so that will certainly help expenses. The fiesta is a big thing in the lives of the 5th Year and is usually a very colourful and elegant affair. It is also big business for the venues and it is necessary to book early in the year. Our booking was made in early July.
8th October was a national holiday so no school. It recalls the heroic naval defence against the navy of Chile in a 19th century war. In the end Peru lost but the heroism is honoured, in the same way as Dunkirk is honoured.
We are in the time of earth tremors and have had quite a few recently. On 10th there were three national earthquake drills. The morning and afternoon drills were like fire drills in UK schools but in the evening there were full dress rehearsals in Lima and other big cities, re-enacting all the possible scenarios. Obviously such public awareness is very important but there is so little time. There are the first movements so the question is, Is it a temblor? Probably, so evacuation and gathering of groups. On a very good day the school can do all this in about two minutes which is pretty good but then you think the earthquake in 2007 lasted only 150 seconds but did immense damage and killed more than 500 people. The overhanging fear is that the experts believe there is the possibility of another major earthquake in the Lima region.
We had a rather interesting type of donation – 2000kgs of potatoes (reminiscent of a few years back when we received 3000kgs of oranges). Parents very quickly formed queues to receive the benefits.
Our annual football and volleyball championships of former pupils are now in full swing. It is good to see so much enthusiasm and obvious affection for the school. Rivalries are keen and some games are very physical but there seems no bad will.
18th October is the official anniversary of the school when it was legally established twenty two years ago. So we had celebrations. Early in the morning there had been three temblores, one particularly strong which set off all the dogs barking. It was a wet chilly start. First of all we had a very good religious service. Then there were various games based on Families. The first was a singing competition – first group to recognise and continue a song. I thought it was a bit harsh on the younger groups because it had to be word perfect and none could manage it. There was then a quiz for the secondary pupils on the history of the school. They were not too hot on the early part of the school. They then had to create a moving machine from a representative from each year group. The most ambitious was a steamroller, the easiest a blender. Then they had to pick out a 'value' from a hat – justice, friendship etc. – and form the word again using bodies. They were quite imaginative in this. Four teachers then reminisced about incidents in the school. The finale was a general dance session.
All the personnel of the school were invited to lunch and before eating there were presentations for ten or twenty years of service in the school.
Linked with the anniversary celebrations was the Dance Competition on 20th. Again it was a chilly wet start and I felt sorry for the 4th and 5th years who had the minimum of clothing as the first part was a walkabout in the streets around the school. There were four categories based on age and each category had been allocated a type of dance. The youngest category had "Carnavals" which allowed plenty of movement. The other age groups had the traditional divisions of coast, mountains, jungle. A group of mums also performed. The standard was very high and a judge from the National Institute of Folkdancing commended all the participants but with those oft heard words, "not everyone can win." I agreed with the judges' decisions. I particularly liked the 6th year primary who elegantly danced the polka Lima-style. The 5th years won the last category, deservedly so. Generally speaking it was a very good day and the inner man was not forgotten as there were plenty of traditional dishes on offer, serviced by the 5th year for their funds.
They needed funds because on 24th and 25th they went for the Leavers' educational visit. This seems to be a custom in all schools. They went about four hours south of Lima to one of the river valleys that are in such contrast to the starkness of the coastal desert. They had to produce work on the history, geography and economy of the area. They all seem to have thoroughly appreciated the outing which offered many of them an opportunity to see another aspect of their incredible country.
At the moment we are enjoying sunny afternoons. I hope you and your families were not affected by the recent storm.
God bless,
Brother Mark

Face Forward and Watch Your Back
For the foreseeable future, the need for security products and services will continue to increase. However, new industry expansion is not likely to mirror the expansion of past years. Security needs drive the industry's growth, but four critical factors...
Security consultants also need to be more IT savvy regarding the kinds of systems integration the products they specify will be involved in. In most cases the software that "glues" the various applications together (middleware) will be provided by IT. The requirements and design for the middleware will include the security system integration. Not only must the security consultant be able to discuss the security system's role in the overall integration, he must specify a system that is up to the task.
The Big Danger: Ignoring the Customer
The previous article in this series (ST&D August 2004, "Playing Catch Up: Convergence With IT and Building Controls") discussed the need for interoperability between systems and pointed to the building controls industry as an example of customers driving change. In retrospect, we see that both customers and companies would have benefited from a more timely industry response. The article suggested that the security industry take a lesson from the building controls industry and actively pursue interoperability without having to be dragged into it by the customer base.
There is danger in looking to the history of building controls industry for guidance. It took 10 years to develop the BACNet specification, and it will be years more before BACNet contains the needed support for security systems, and again more before companies adopt it.
The danger is this: Unlike the HVAC and lighting control portions of the building controls industry, the security industry cannot safely drag its feet for years. The building controls industry did not have outsiders waiting in the wings that could simply come in and take the business away from its integrators. The security industry does. The IT industry has the technology, the people, and the money to pull it off.
Encroachments have already taken place, as we've seen, with IP-based video systems, and similarly with Web-based visitor management and identity management systems. Some security industry companies responded by adopting the related IT standards and interfacing with the IT systems. Most did not respond at all.
The Threat of Microsoft
Implementing an identity management system is no small task. So to help make the introduction, Microsoft offers a six-month evaluation version of Microsoft Identity Integration Server 2003, which is downloadable from the Microsoft Web site. Microsoft Server 2003 includes a free implementation of a Public Key Infrastructure system suitable for small businesses. PKI is a component required for smart-card-based access control to information systems. Both Windows 2000 Server and Windows Server 2003 support smart cards for Windows logon.
What if Microsoft took a liking to networked video? Would we see a six-month trial version of Microsoft Video Management Server 2005? If that happened, you could expect to see the Microsoft development Web site offer a video server development kit, so that anyone could interface to the software.
Part of the threat of Microsoft is that it creates systems that are standardized to allow other groups to use the same technology. This would signal the end of popular proprietary technology and the beginning of a drop in system prices.
Culture Change
IT has thrived on open standards and interoperability. Security industry manufacturers fear open standards and interoperability. They would much prefer things to remain unchanged. But the IT door has already been opened, and it cannot be closed.
Cisco reports that the chief lessons learned from the transition to digital CCTV pertain to making the best use of Cisco IT resources. "Physical security and IT security are converging," said Chatterton, "and the two groups need to work more closely than before. When we managed the servers ourselves, a hardware or software problem was a serious issue for the department. Now we just generate a case and IT uses their technical resources and expertise to resolve the issue. We had to shift our culture to let IT do the work and run through its own processes."
Like Cisco, many end users are experiencing corporate culture change due to convergence. Unless there is a corresponding culture change within security industry companies, the end-user change will amount to a shift away from traditional security companies to IT services companies.

((omg crying too cute))
Dear King JackJack,
I'm calling you that because you're the nicest and most greatest boy I've met who's around my age and great and nice boys are kings, right? So you can be a king. Mommy says that we'll probably end up being good friends and end up being best friends forever, and I think we will too because I really like you. I'm also friends with Andy, though, so I guess I can call both of you my best friends and we'll be together forever and ever! I know we've only had a couple of times we've played together but Mommy says we'll go over a lot more once my big brother comes home and the island's safer again. Maybe you can meet my big brother then, too, because Mommy and Daddy both tell me he's really great. He might even make you a robot because he's made me and Mommy and Daddy robots, too. If he doesn't I'll make him do it so you can have a JackBot. Mommy says that big brother is going to love me so I'm sure he'll listen. I really hope we get to play again sometime soon because I miss you!

85th Annual Junior League Fashion Show, Friday at The Fairmont Hotel
The Junior League of San Francisco celebrates its centennial anniversary this year with their 85th Annual Fashion Show: A Fashionable Legacy. Both the luncheon and dinner shows, will be held this Friday at the Fairmont Hotel.
Each year the show features members of the JLSF, their hubbies and their children as models in the elaborate runway show. Model trainer, Charleston Pierce, is back on the scene this year, to help these charitable ladies get officially runway ready. (We're guessing the new models just happen to be catching up on America's Next Top Model, too.)
Last year, the show featured trendy designer, Trina Turk. This year, Macy's Fashion Director, Laura Schara, will pull wardrobe from Macy's to style everything from children's wear to haute swimwear. Yes, even the classy ladies of the League has been known to take it off for a good cause.
It's not all about the fashion. Proceeds from the fashion show and silent auction help fund the JLSF's community outreach programs. Last year, the show raked in a huge half million that helped support Compass Community Services, The Homeless Prenatal Program, in addition to several other charities.
This year, the League is stepping it up with a dedicated Giant's viewing area (We're guessing it'll be the only baseball party in town with tuxes, updos and bubbly on tap. Go Giants!), and a post fashion show dance lounge in the Fairmont's Terrace Room. Mark our words, this will be one lavish evening.

I think he's talking about "normal" runs. Moving from one starting zone to another is a given as far as long runs are concerned.
As for me, my absolute least favorite run is from Ironforge to Scarlet Monastery before you get the FPs or even from Southshore to Scarlet Monastery afterwards.
Having never played Alliance, I've always wondered how Alliance get to SM. I mean, it's down the road from Undercity for us Hordies. But from Alliance territory, do you have to go all the way from Southshore? If so, it must suck to do on a PvP server, since it forces you to go through the UC to Zepplin crossroads.

| "Stevenson has delivered a musical gem that features not only her fluent, jazz-tinged harp but also the moody whistle of Davy Spillane and the gipsy-like fiddle of Anne Wood. The thrilling bustle of the opening track, with Spillane pouring out notes, gives way to the slow, mesmeric beauty of The White Swan and then some sparkling solo harp in An Buchaille before the three musicians settle into a sustained exploration of Stevenson's ruminative themes, spattered with spicy, Charlie Parkerish chord changes.

Home Tour 2013:
Petitfils-Boos House, Los Angeles
"People use the expression 'dream home' all the time," says television personality Dayna Devon, who, with husband Dr. Brent Moelleken, owns the Petitfils-Boos House in Los Angeles' fabled Hancock Park. "But this house," she continues, "is beyond anything I could ever have imagined. I had never dreamed this big in my whole life."
An Italianate Renaissance Revival home with sweeping lines and soaring spaces, the Petitfils-Boos house was designed and built in 1921 by architect Charles Plummer for entrepreneur, Walter Petitfils. Situated in storied Windsor Square, the home may be the only single-family residence in the world clad in famous Gladding McBean architectural terra cotta tiles.
Dayna remembers being overwhelmed by the house's interior the first time she and Brent viewed it. "Because it was tied up in a complex court case, we didn't think it was something we could ever actually own. We were just so pleased to see and experience a home of this caliber. I remember putting my back up against the wall so I could just absorb everything about it. It took my breath away."
A Look Inside:
Eloquence and Symmetry
Cross the threshold, and you immediately understand her reaction. Exuding museum-like detail, archway after archway opens onto rooms detailed with rich walnut panels, hand-stenciled beams and intricate stained glass. Most remarkable are the exquisite murals by renowned Dutch artist Anthony Heinsbergen.
"The house was partly a product of its time," explains Brent Moelleken. "It was built before the stock market crash, when money was just growing on trees. And it reflects the sense of proportion they had at that time."
A perfect "L" shape when viewed from above, the house's symmetry is one of the characteristics that make it so historic. And it's one of the things that appeals most to Dr. Moelleken, a plastic surgeon. "Brent really loves the symmetry our home," Dayna says. "He instinctively looks for that in his work as well as in his surroundings. It's part of his aesthetic."
"Not a day goes by that I don't see both the house's beauty and its functionality. I think that kind of design is almost a lost art now."
A House to Live In
The Moellekens greatly credit their designer, Norm Wogan, for helping them create a home that retains its historic authenticity and is still suited for modern-day living. "You know, it's amazingly livable, this house," Brent says. There are no hallways on the entire first floor. It just flows from one room to the next. We use every single room. Not a day goes by that I don't see both the house's beauty and its functionality. I think that kind of design is almost a lost art now."
"Even though it is a formal house, we wanted it to be really livable. We let the kids ride big wheels through the house!" Dayna laughs. "We wanted to hear the pitter-patter of footsteps. Even though it's historic, we always wanted the house to be filled with life and energy."
"Even though it's a formal house, we wanted it to be really livable."
Palazzo Life:
A Series of Outdoor Vignettes
While the original design of the gardens had been lost when the Moellekens took possession of the property, recreating an outdoor space true to the house's sensibilities became a labor of love. "Fortunately, both Brent and Norm [Norm Wogan Design] have spent a great deal of time in Italy and France," Dayna says. "In the end, we incorporated a lot of hedge and very specific trees to create the kind of elegant simplicity you might see in the gardens of a fine European home."
"When we were designing the gardens, we created little vignettes," adds Brent. "Depending on the weather, the mood, how many people there are...each vignette has its own purpose. Each space calls out how it wants to be used. It's very European to do it that way."
"I love Frontgate's selection of outdoor furnishings! One of my tricks: I use different throw cushions in different outdoor vignettes. It gives the impression of a completely different space... even if the sofas are identical. I change them up every couple of years and it freshens everything."
Born This Way:
A House for Entertaining
"It's when you begin to entertain in a house like this that you think: they really knew what they were doing back then," Brent continues, "Sometimes if it's sunny and warm we'll go out and eat beneath the loggia, which we actually built from historic elements. If it's a little cooler, we'll sit around the pool. Or sometimes we'll go to the courtyard behind the house where there's an Italian fountain, and we'll set up tables and have dinner for 50."
"We've had an opera singer come and sing by the piano in the ballroom," Dayna adds. "The singer's voice reverberated through the house like it was amplified. I don't know if it was deliberate in the design, but the acoustics are just amazing. Not only do I have the kids' birthday parties here every year, but our 10-year anniversary is coming up and we are thinking of having a Great Gatsby party.
"We have entertained in virtually every square foot of this home. And when we don't entertain for a while, we almost feel guilty... as though we were doing the house a disservice. Because entertaining is what this house was meant for."
Chain of Dreams
Over the years, the Petitfils-Boos house has had many owners. Most of them took exquisite care of the property, including the woman who poured her entire fortune into the house's renovation and the doctor who spent a million dollars restoring the famous murals alone. The Moellekens have made their own significant restorations to the home, but believe they are merely the latest owners of this historic treasure.
"I think we both have decided we are caretakers for this place," Dayna says. "We love this house so much, but it's not really ours." Brent laughs, adding "I hope future generations will say, you know, those Moellekens... they took pretty good care of this place."
The Petitfils-Boos House is on the National Register of Historic Places.

York Regional Police say officers were called to the Vaughan Mills Mall at about 2 p.m. Sunday after a passerby saw the unattended child sleeping in the back seat.
Police say the windows of the vehicle were left slightly open but that the temperature outside the vehicle was more than 30 C and the child was showing obvious signs of extreme heat exposure.
Officers forced down the window and rescued the child, who was found to be hot to the touch, her skin red and her hair drenched with sweat.
A Toronto man was arrested after police say he returned to the vehicle about 30 minutes after the girl was discovered.
He's charged with leaving a child unattended.
The girl was taken to hospital as a precaution and was released into the custody of her mother.
Police remind the public that children and pets can quickly become overheated and dehydrated if left unattended in hot vehicles, which can result in serious injury or death.

Heat rookie Shabazz Napier in different situation since draftShandel Richardson, Sun Sentinel
The link began before Shabazz Napier even entered the NBA.
It was April when he was first associated with LeBron James. It started with James being fascinated by his play during the NCAA Tournament. It continued when the Heat traded for Napier on draft night, with some thinking it was a ploy to keep James in Miami.
Their bond has changed since James decided to return to the Cleveland Cavaliers. Napier is solely focused on improving as a player instead of hanging onto to any praise from James.
"It was great to hear," Napier said of James' kind words. "It was humbling, but right now I'm just focused on trying to get better with the summer league."
Napier is doing his best to detach himself from James, who tweeted about him while he was leading UConn to the national title. While it was Twitter that first tied them together, Napier created some minor news when it was learned he unfollowed the former Heat star.
Napier has since said he doesn't use his own Twitter account.
But after the Heat's loss against the Los Angeles Clippers Monday at Thomas & Mack Center, he seemed disinterested in discussing anything related to James. His attention was strictly on basketball.
"I don't really fall into it," Napier said when asked his reaction of James' departure. "I'm just trying to get better myself."
Napier would much rather concentrate on how his situation has changed since being drafted. Before James left, he was originally expected to serve as the backup to guard Norris Cole. All signs pointed toward Mario Chalmers, the starter the past three seasons, leaving via free agency.
That became no longer the case once James exited.
Chalmers was re-signed and is expected to remain the starter. That leaves Napier as the third point guard on the roster. He said there is nothing wrong with competition.
"I'm happy we've got some teammates, we've got some good players," Napier said. "I'm looking forward to playing with those guys."
The only concern for Napier is improving. He has struggled with his shot throughout the summer league. He made just 2 of 8 from the field against the Clippers.
"It's not 1/8a concern3/8," Napier said. "That's one of the biggest things right now. Shooting-wise, I shoot the ball well but right now I'm not."
As always, Napier has been his biggest critic. It's been that way throughout his career. He often finds the negatives in his performances, win or lose.
"I'm never satisfied," Napier said. "Even though I was on a high, I was never satisfied with who I was and my game play. Every time I have a bad game, even if it's a good game and we lose, I always find ways to criticize myself. I do it in the right manner. I don't beat myself up but I just got to figure out what I need to do better, what I need to learn."
Part of it is just Napier adjusting to playing at a different level. Things have started to somewhat slow down, allowing him to play less passive.
"I feel good," Napier said. "I've just got to be more aggressive. I'm not as aggressive as I need to be. That's not who I am. I am going to get it sooner or later."
The positive is Napier feels he has improved after each game. He views that as a "stepping stone" to becoming a consistent contributor.
"It's basketball," Napier said. "In a few beginnings of games, I was just thinking too much. It's basketball at the end of the day. I just got to continue to progress each and every game ... That will be the key. The goal is just to continue to be consistent."

Finally, our game is out of beta stage!
Okay, this game was actually started pretty early this year (or maybe very late last year). It started with the idea of the game "Nyan Cat in Outer Space" and the movie where Mario ate a mushroom and had rainbow flashing eyes (with the Nyan Cat music playing).
This version is actually quite harder than the beta. For example, 1up mushrooms disappear once you get 50000 points, and water bottles disappear once you get 25000.
My personal best is 38579. Submit yours!
EDIT: Guys, thanks for the reviews!
Just so you know, the music is on the main menu, and I'll get to adding the SFX.
So far I've added Boo to the characters, and it will replace the water bottle if you have 25000 points or more. The sprites are bigger now, so there are only 4 at a time. Hopefully this helps :)
I'll let you know when it's updated, so don't worry ;)

NJIT's Big Bear (California) Observatory Reopens
November 07, 2003
Big Bear Solar Observatory reopened Monday November 3 after a six-day shutdown cause by California's wildfires. Mandatory evacuation mean the center's director Philip Goode had to leave his home on Big Bear Lake and return to New Jersey, where the observatory is managed by the New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) in Newark. But no harm came to observatory staff, property, or equipment. >>
October 28, 2003
A major solar flare, possibly the second largest ever recorded, erupted today at 6:30 a.m. The intensity of the flare has sent a space storm careening towards the Earth. If the storm's magnetic field is in the right direction – opposite that of the earth – it could cause problems when it reaches us Wednesday. It could knock out power grids, upset satellites and disrupt GPS signals. More benignly, if the weather is clear, people who peer into the northern sky on Wednesday night could see a shimmer of lights known as an aurora," says NJIT physicist Dale Gary. >>
October 24, 2003
"This storm is predicted to be a strong event, but events of this size are not too unusual," says Dale Gary, Ph.D., professor of physics at New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT). "We don't expect to see it cause an unusually large amount of activity on earth. We see an event of this sort happening on the average of once every 30 days or during an 11-year solar cycle, about 200 times." >>

NJIT Physics Team Charts New Solar Data
June 16, 2003
Newark, N.J.--The "weather" in space may have just gotten a bit more predictable. Using new digital equipment, a team of NJIT researchers has gotten a better look at the surface of the sun and what happens to it both before and during solar flares. Working at NJIT's Big Bear Solar Observatory in California, a team led by physics professor Haimin Wang, Ph.D., produced a series of new images. They show for the first time that rapid changes in the magnetic fields emanating from the sun's surface are associated with flares and mass ejections of energy from the sun's corona. These eruptions are typically near areas known as "sunspots", which appear dark through telescopes because they have a lower surface temperature than that of their surrounding surface. "This is good news for the researchers of space weather, because our information will enable scientists in industry and government to better understand and predict the likelihood of flares and prepare for and mitigate adverse consequences," says Wang. Wang is scheduled to present the findings this week at the American Astronomical Society's solar physics division meeting at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, MD. Solar flares are violent eruptions that send electromagnetic radiation into space, ultimately causing problems on earth by disrupting the atmosphere. The flare-ups can interfere with satellite-based communications and television and radio broadcasts. That can mean disruptions in cell-phone service and flight communications. Wang and colleagues produced images showing how the sun's surface changed during an after a flare. The research should enable scientists to predict when solar flares will erupt, how disruptive they will be, and how long they will last, he says. Crucial to producing the images was a new imaging system known as a "digital magnetograph system" built by NJIT doctoral student Tom Spirock. The team's work was also supported by grants from NASA, the National Science Foundation, and the Office of Naval Research. >>
Solar Physicists at New Jersey Institute of Technology Discover Rapid Changes in Magnetic Fields on Surface of Sun

A solar research team from New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) has discovered new information about the sun's surface, known as the photosphere. Haimin Wang, Ph.D., professor of physics at NJIT, who led this team, detected rapid changes last July in magnetic fields on the sun's surface. Such rapid changes are associated with flares and coronal mass ejections (CME). >>

Consumption Insurance with Heterogeneous Preferences. Can Sharecropping Help Complete Markets?
AbstractEmpirical tests of the complete markets hypothesis generally reject full insurance and stimulated the study of optimal risk sharing. However, most of the empirical tests of the complete markets hypothesis make strong assumptions concerning the specification of preferences. In particular, the usual rejection of full insurance may be affected by the incapacity to account for heterogeneity of risk aversion of households. Underlining the methodological problems on the identification of preferences, the direction of the tests and their power, we study the risk sharing and consumption insurance achieved by rural households from three provinces of Pakistan. We show how to deal with these methodological problems in studying consumption smoothing and implement some non directional and directional tests of market completeness. We actually find that markets are incomplete in Pakistan even at the village level and look for a possible explanation of how households try to complete markets. The risk sharing property of sharecropping is actually often called upon, but its effect on consumption smoothing has never been tested directly. We therefore present a reduced form evidence that, in Pakistan, the sharecropping institution allows to complete markets. Households able to use this contractual choice, which permits to share production risk, are better insured against idiosyncratic shocks. It seems that sharecropping provides a contingent claim that other accessible markets do not allow to replicate. This empirical fact shows that agricultural contracts play an important role sharing production risk but also through informal insurance mechanisms when markets are incomplete.

The Case for a Factored Operating System (fos)
Download Now Free registration required
Executive Summary
The next decade will afford the computer chips with 1,000 - 10,000 cores on a single piece of silicon. Contemporary operating systems have been designed to operate on a single core or small number of cores and hence are not well suited to manage and provide operating system ser-vices at such large scale. Managing 10,000 cores is so fundamentally different from managing two cores that the traditional evolutionary approach of operating system optimization will cease to work. The fundamental design of operating systems and operating system data structures must be rethought.

How Can Wine Industry Insight Help You Prevail -- Not Just Survive -- In The Most Challenging Economic Environment in Decades?
Wine Industry Insight's editor and publisher, Lewis Perdue, founded Wine Business Monthly and Wine Business Insider in 1991. After their sale in 1997, he concentrated on writing books and serving as founder or co-founder of two technology corporations and as a start-up consultant to several others.
But during this time, Perdue maintained his contacts within the industry and continued to follow it. Among other topics, Perdue's 1999 book on the wine industry, The Wrath of Grapes, accurately predicted the timing and extent of the millennial winegrape oversupply.
Perdue has been an award-winning journalist, and Washington correspondent covering the White House and Capitol Hill. He has also served as a columnist for The Wall Street Journal Online, The Street.Com, Marketwatch and other business and financial media.
In addition to his journalism experience, Lew founded and managed a Los Angeles-based wine import/wholesale firm, has been a negociant and has hands-on business start-up and management experience.
That experience allows Lew to examine news, data and trends with insight shaped by experience.
