I really don't understand this "too square" thing you guys keep talking about. Just look at a normal Pokemon game. They don't follow these imaginary codes of conduct that you guys are applying here. They're just as square.
I can't remember the last town I went to where the houses were distributed _in a chaotic, random pattern_ by the contractors. I'm pretty sure when people build towns, they follow a blueprint that places those houses in the most efficient patterns possible to allow for the most area; in other words, my game having square towns is actually
"natural" than the imaginary standard people here seem to have.
If you're arguing that I should break from this "Nintendo" style of mapping, well I'm sorry but that's just how I prefer to do things. To be honest, I don't like everyone's attempt to be realistic (since this IS Pokemon, why exactly are you trying to make it like reality?) This fixation on how the maps look is, to me, a secondary priority. I would like to just HAVE maps made and HAVE scripts written before I start worrying about how "pretty" I make everything look. (And honestly, when you play a Pokemon game, are you playing it for how "pretty" it looks?) The day will come when I polish Pokemon Rose with things like DP Poke Centers, custom made trees and palettes, and so on. It's not my top priority. My top priority is to make Centiq exist first before making it exist in small chunks. To me that seems to be why most rom hacks fail to be completed; their creators worried about it looking -just- right and basically spent all of their time working on the first few parts of the game; burning themselves out, they lost interest in finishing their game and it became like so many other games--incomplete and forgotten.
That's not what I want to have happen to my game. I understand people like games to use something other than the FR tiles/maps. If you guys would like to help me change that, I would love to receive your assistance in doing so! =)
Pokemon Rose will be a trilogy. I only attempt to be "canon" in this first game, so don't worry about all of the specifications I give as it's just to make it fit properly with the official games' world! I also drop the usage of pre-existing characters like Team Rocket or Red (yes, he does appear in this game!) in the second and third games. Expect many new characters to pop up in future releases!

Site Improvements, and Five Things About Me
Published on - December 22nd, 2006 (Modified on - September 4th, 2014) (by J.D. Roth)
I'm taking a break between now and New Years. My absence will be filled by contributions from you, the readers of Get Rich Slowly. Next week could see a heavy posting schedule or a light one, depending on the number of submissions. Meanwhile, I'll be working behind-the-scenes on various site improvements. If you have any suggestions or requests, please let me know so that I can add them to my agenda.
Did you now that you can subscribe to Get Rich Slowly via any of the following methods?
Finally: though I'm not a fan of blog memes, I'll play along this time. Several of you have "tagged" me to share five things most readers don't know about me. In keeping with this site's theme, I've tried to keep them money-oriented.
- I grew up poor. My family lived in a trailer house in the middle of the country. (That trailer house is now the office for our business.) Dad was frequently out of work. But during his life, he also started two successful businesses, the latter of which is the source of my day job today. He did some farming, too. All of these things led to a sort of "famine or feast" financial situation. We struggled without much for months at a time, and then we'd suddenly have money again. Dad was terrible at saving. He spent all his money on expensive hobbies. He always owned an airplane (he was once a flight instructor) and a sailboat. It was from this sort of modeling that I learned the terrible money skills that I still struggle with today.
- I always knew I would go to college. But because my family was poor, I knew they couldn't help pay my way. So, I studied hard in high school, and participated in a lot of activities. I based my choice of colleges on who would give me the most financial aid. Willamette University gave me a full scholarship, as well as grants for room-and-board. I actually think this hurt me in the long run. Because I didn't have to pay for anything, I didn't appreciate the cost of my education. I wasn't as serious about my studies as I ought to have been. I graduated without any debt, but also without any direction.
- I was a psychology major. I minored in English literature. I started taking speechcomm classes my senior year and loved them. I almost got a minor in that, too. (Ran out of time.) If I could do it all again, I'd study history — the older I get, the more I realize how fundamental a grasp of history is to understanding the world today. I still take about one college course every year, either at the local community college or at Portland State University. I believe education is of utmost importance.
- My wife used to teach high school physics. When she decided to leave teaching for a career in forensic chemistry, we thought we would have to move from Oregon to Connecticut. This prompted me to spend nine months undergoing a crash course in computer science. I worked full time while taking classes at local colleges. When it turned out we didn't have to move, I parlayed my skills into a computer programming job. I hated it. I'd always wanted to be a computer programmer, but once I became one, I loathed the work.
- My favorite job ever was at McDonald's when I was a senior in high school. I'm not kidding. My co-workers were whip-smart and efficient. We had a blast. It was a game to see how good we could be. I've worked at other jobs where the employees are apathetic, just killing time on the clock. Those jobs are miserabe. It wasn't like that at McDonald's. We were a team, and our goal was to be awesome. We were.
Now's the part of the game where I'm supposed to tag five other bloggers. I'm not going to do that. However, I'd love to learn more about regular readers in the comments!
This article is about Administration
You must have had a really great management team at your McDonalds. I worked at a McDonalds off and on for a total of two years and hated every minute of it. I never experienced anything resembling team work.
Starbucks, however, is the best job I have ever had. It was a blast, training was awesome and fun, and they know how to take care of their employees. I worked there for four years (the longest I have ever held a single job). Please note that I am the type to distinguish between a job and career.
I have a bachelor's degree in history. I mostly studied war. If you can grasp this concept, you have not missed much: No argument is a new argument–there are just more devastating weapons each time.
The cost of education thing is actually surprisingly common. I got better grades in college than the valedictorian of my high school, who burned out later on and didn't really care because everything for him–including room and board–was free. I, on the other hand, was paying for everything out of pocket except a $500 "scholarship" from my church, and I had to live at home to manage it. Worse, however, are the ones whose parents paid for everything; since they don't have to maintain grades to keep their scholarships, they just drink.
I had pretty much a full scholarship to college (NYU) and it was amazing – for me that meant that I could afford to go to grad school after college (I have a Phd in Biology – and your average academic scientists are not particularly well paid in the long run) – if I had big loans I would have worked right away and maybe never gotten to go back to school. I would have felt pressure to do something more lucrative to pay my debts instead of following my interests.
I took college seriously (and did have fun too!) and really appreciated not having $100K debt when I left.
As a bonus, the money my parents had saved for my college education (which would not have been enough to pay my way to college entirely, even at a state school) augmented my down payment for a condo.
I'd like to see some numbers on the whole kids in college with financial support end up screwing it up.
I have read research that shows students that have to work too much to support themselves have lower grades. There's the anecdotal evidence of kids with full support of parents or scholarships not taking college seriously enough, but I haven't read any studies on this.
There should be a balance of external support and students supporting themselves.
I ended up only paying for my books. Parents, loans, and scholarships paid for the rest. It was hard to find a job when I graduated with a Computer Science degree since the tech bubble had just burst. If I had taken college more seriously, it would have been easier, but I'm not sure I would have done so if I had to hold down a job during school. Now, just a few years after graduating, I've got a really good job and more that making up (money wise) for the couple years I was underemployed and living with my parents.
Honestly I see what you did with working hard in high school as something more kids should learn from. If I had known about the possible scholarships for good grades I would have applied myself more to reach such a goal (maybe not).
I paid for about 85% of my college and even took time off several semesters to not have to take out any loans. So now I'm minus the school debt, but I don't remember enjoying any of it knowing how much it really cost.
I believe I would have studied more and been more focused on a career after graduation if I wasn't so concerned with how to pay for next semester…
I'd be surprised if there's any significant difference in academic performance between students who pay their own way versus those who are supported by scholarships and/or their parents. It boils down to motivation and maturity. If you were a good student in high school you'll probably be a good student at university, unless your good grades in high school were due to parental supervision. When you're in your late teens and early 20s, finding direction and taking your studies seriously can be a challenge regardless of who's paying for your own education.
Can't help but weigh in on the impact of college funding: I was lucky enough to turn my hard work during high school into a full ride plus stipend (from a variety of sources) at my state (but very good) university.
Somehow, I think I actually felt more motivated because of this – unlike most of my peers, I had been given grant money to cover my education because various organizations (the state, various private organizations, a federal fund to promote scientific research, etc) had thought that funding my education would pay off in the long run in terms of the benefits I would bring for society at large. I was extremely grateful for the support, but since it certainly wasn't clear to me how in my current state I was prepared to give back enough to fulfill this hope, I felt a strong obligation to work hard and go as far as I could in order to prove them right. I'm now 6 years out of college and immersed in a full time research career in a basic science lab, and so far I am proud of how I have done (although I still feel a strong obligation to justify the money that has been invested in me).
One thing that I do think helped me a lot is that I didn't get all of my financial support up front. I started college with enough to cover the first year in full and with much of the subsequent years covered, but not nearly all of it. Each year, then, I would apply for additional scholarships and grants and fellowships to cover the rest. This turned out to be a very important part of my education: most of what I applied for was money tied to research, where the application involved writing a research proposal as well as normal cv-based stuff. Each application, then, involved writing multiple drafts of a research proposal and going over them with my research mentor (who in fact I only had because my money was tied to working in a research lab); in addition, each award I received improved my cv and made me qualified to apply for more competitive grants in the future. At the time, I had no idea how important all this would be to my future career – I was just applying because I needed the money. But afterwards, both my skills in writing these kinds of proposals and my cv turned out to be significant advantages over my peers who had similar records otherwise, but had had college paid for from the start, and so not been participating in the grant application process all along.
Wow, I'd love to work at that McDonald's too! I've never worked in any establishment where at least 1/2 the people weren't apathetic … ugh.
Hmmm … something about me that you may not know. OK, keeping with the financial theme … even though I run a humor site, by day I'm the CIO of a mid-sized Financial Services firm in DC area.
While Australia doesn't have the ridiculous cost of university in the US, studies here have found that students who work a small amount have improved grades over those who don't have a job at all, but more than ~12 hours a week and the grades start to go down again.
I worked at Sonic Drive In for 5 years. The corporate side of it treated its employees like garbage, but my manager was amazing. He kept us motivated and showed us that having a job, no matter how lowly it seemed, was something to be proud of, since we were earning money for ourselves rather than relying on parents. I also took many important soft skills from that place: how to deal with difficult co-workers, what it's like to be a manager, how to handle drunk/rude/tired customers, how to teach others that you get out of life what you put in.
My family was constantly poor while I was growing up too. I was a first generation college student and had to pay my own way through college also, through scholarships, grants, loans, and a full time job. I agree with Brad, what makes a successful college student is maturity level. My younger brother was paying his own way through school, like me, but because of his maturity level (or rather lack thereof) he flunked out by way of too much partying.
Your honesty encourages me to stick with my financial plan and dig myself out of debt. I look forward to more in the new year.
thanks for posting this – here are five things about me =)
1. i live in north of sweden & we still don't have snow for christmas this year. but to look at it from the bright side – at least i won't wear out my winter clothes as much this year
2. i love to knit & crochet – atm i'm trying to use up the yarn i already have at home instead of 'always' buying new stuff when i see something i like. so the past days i've made a cell phone cozy for my friend's b-day gift & a pair of slippers + a bikini top for me. there's still lots of yarn left. or rather, i can hardly see anything has gone. but the more socks, the better
3. i am currently working as a journalist for a local lifestyle magazine, where i write a lot about shopping. at first, as a big part of my daily tasks consists of running around in stores, i spent more money than i normally do – but now i'm used to it + i also visit shops a lot less in my spare-time – why keep doing what i already have done at work all day?
4. i'd like to study at a university in another town in the fall, so i'm saving up for that. i'm amazed to see how many things i can do without. although my phone bill may have increased, by calling my friends to tell how good i'm doing with not spending.
5. since i started living more frugally (partly thanks to this site) i feel that my quality of life has increased. i thought it would be the opposite but that i'd 'have to put up with it' in order to be able to move. now i really appreciate what i do have (and i do have a lot of food etc already at home, which i used to just ignore & buy something new and more interesting) & am thrilled by getting to eat something yummy which i used to take for granted. of course, what's the most satisfying is to look at the numbers in my savings' account & say 'i did this all by myself & in such a short time'. well, not entirely by myself – i've found good advice too =)
merry christmas to you & anyone else who might read this!
Why did you hate computer programming? I've switched my career from starting a career in acedemia to being self taught in computers and now I am a CTO at a software company. I love the work so much. It's very mathmatical, and there is alot of creativity if you really know how to design and architect systems.
I have a degree from Lewis & Clark College in psychology and business administration. I also make Portland my home. I have been in financial management for many years, and have gradually discovered that my psychology degree has been much more valuable to me than my business degree. So much so that after 22 years in business I intend to go back to LC for my masters in counseling psychology.
I have also learned over time (painfully) that the constant pursuit of material gain is a serious and devastating practice. Many people find themselves desparately in debt and with very low levels of self-esteem and happiness. Up to this point, I have dedicated my career to helping shareholders (and to a lesser extent me) get rich. From now on, I am dedicated to helping others escape the bonds of consumerism and materialism.
Keep up the good work.
[...] I was going to tag other personal finance bloggers but I think most of the blogs I read have already been tagged. So instead, here's a list of bloggers I've found that have participated: 2 Million Blog Adult ADD And Money Adventure Money Blueprint For Financial Prosperity Blunt Money Boston Gal's Open Wallet Consumerism Commentary Experiments in Finance Free Money Finance Fire Finance Frank the Financially Savvy Atheist Get Rich Slowly It's Just Money It's Your Money Lazy Man And Money Mapgirl's Fiscal Challenge Money, Matter, and More Musings My Money Blog My Open Wallet My Wealth Builder No Limit Ladies Stingy Students The Digerati Life The Simple Dollar The Sun's Financial Diary Tired But Happy We're In Debt Young And Broke December 25, 2006 – Category: Miscellaneous Digg! Furl Del.icio.us Reddit [...]
I do programming for a living (and support my wife staying at home with our 4 kids, in a rather expensive state … NJ).
Some things I enjoy about programming are (re)architecting applications, and helping others if/when they have problems.
What I don't care for too much lately, is the slightly archaic tools that we use. However, I'm trying to enhance those tools to make our lives easier (so I'm happy about that).
What have I learned in my 25 years of work experience so far (everything from Janitorial to Computer Programming)? Simply that enjoying your work shows, and is also rewarded. If you don't enjoy it, then it's time for a change. That change can either be you leaving the company, or making complete suggestions to your management on how to make things easier/better/faster.

My main is a rogue, and while I remember the Shadowcraft days of hating ferals trying to steal my gear, I like them in the end game. Put 2 rogues, a hunter, a shaman, and a feral in a group and you have some UBER dps on your hands. Plus after BC when ferals can make our crits heal us, well then all the more welcome.

Others wary, but many believe Lieber's stamina may be sufficient for jog in from the pen
March 21 2007
Popular consensus seems
to have the Phillies keeping six starters and, despite my seemingly lone
vote for Hamels, most think it's Lieber or Eaton headed to the pen. Some
have suggested in recent days that of the two, Lieber might be better suited
for a bullpen role than Eaton.
I still have some questions about whether the Phillies will actually put Lieber in the pen. He started for them on opening day last season, it's hard to think the Phillies' perception of him has gone from best starter to sixth starter in a year. If they still have him at the start of the season they will no doubt still be trying to trade him to a team that would use him as a starter -- it's hard to demonstrate he's a valuable starter if you aren't willing to give him the ball yourself. Last season was the first in the last ten in which he's thrown to an ERA over 4.50. Still, I think you can make the case that Lieber would do a better job out of the pen than Eaton.
When you look at a starting pitcher's numbers for the first 15 pitches he throws, there are several things that are important not to forget. First is that it's very common for a starting pitcher to have worse numbers in his first 15 pitches than he does overall. The second is that this more likely represents the fact that the starting pitcher is facing better hitters than that he is less effective in his first 15 pitches. The first inning is the inning in which the team the starting pitcher is facing can best control who will come to the plate -- they usually send their best hitters (at least by the time they get to third in the order, if not in the leadoff man and second hitter).
That said, Lieber has just been better than Eaton in his first 15 pitches over his career. Here's what the two have done in their first 15 pitches compared to their career numbers:
|First 15 pitches
|Career ERA
|Career Ratio
I'm not holding back on
you, I genuinely have no idea what the Phillies will do. Lieber's career
numbers suggest that he might be a better bullpen pitcher, but they also
suggest that he's been a better starter. I don't think that the fact that
the Phillies want to trade Lieber, and that he has more value as a starter
than as a middle reliever, should be forgotten.
I'm still waiting for momentum to build on the Hamels thing.
Hamels allowed four runs in 3 2/3 innings in minor league game.
Alex Gonzalez's
passion for the game has been reignited.
The Phillies fell to the Yankees last night, losing 2-0 to drop to 7-13 in spring training.
The Phillies got three hits, all singles. Victorino was 2-for-4 and Burrell had the other knock. Kei Igawa shut them down for five innings, allowing two singles and three walks. He was followed by four Yankees relievers who combined to allow one hit.
Garcia was 0-for-1 with a
strikeout. Bourn 0-for-1.
The Phillies made three errors. Howard, Victorino and Nunez.
Zack Segovia got the start for the Phils and was tremendous. He allowed a run in five innings on five hits without walking a batter. Madson followed Segovia and threw a 1-2-3 sixth. He returned for the seventh and allowed a single and an RBI-double, but the run was unearned due to an error by Victorino. Alfonseca set the Yankees down 1-2-3 in the eighth.
I don't think Segovia really has a chance for a bullpen spot, but it's being discussed.
The Phillies play the Blue Jays tonight.

Invasive. When a gardener tells you a plant is invasive, and asks you if you still want it, you should think carefully before you jump up and down and say yes, please, I've got lots of room. I'll take ten.
Trust me on this. Those tall flowers in the photo above? Aster tartaria. Beautiful purple blossoms with yellow centers, six or seven feet off the ground. The plants bloom in late September, making them a boon to perennial borders filled with plants that peak earlier in the season.
I started with ten aster tartaria plants. Now I have hundreds.

Excellent recipe. I used the "basic marinara sauce" for this recipe. Instead of tomato sauce. Turned out great and more flavorful. That is why I did not give it 5 stars. This recipe will be one of our favorites. Excellent for company.

Mat Garretson, a former Gainesville man now a California winemaker, noticed a piece in ESPN magazine about football bowl games that mentioned the Poultry Bowl of 1973.
The Citizens Bank was a mainstay in Gainesville for more than eight decades. Before the banking landscape changed so dramatically, you had Citizens, First National and Gainesville National, then the savings and loan guys, Home Federal and First Federal. In recent years, banks grew like kudzu, and even in today's recession new ones are sprouting.

Gainesville's recent decision to abandon its attempt to annex unincorporated islands into the city illustrates again the reluctance of many outside-city interests to become part of a city.
Two reminders of Brenau University's Japanese connection remain on the Gainesville school's campus.
A weathered stone lantern that once graced Lake Takeda in the area of the present tennis courts now stands in the plaza area in the school's sorority circle off Prior Street.

Jackson Countians know why the Jefferson bypass on U.S. 129 south of Gainesville is named for Major Damon J. Gause. Many others, even in neighboring counties, might not know that he was a World War II hero, whose remarkable story about multiple escapes from the Japanese will be told in a Public Broadcasting documentary next year.

The Braves have released minor league pitcher Deunte Heath, who was suspended last month after being arrested for soliciting a prostitute in Kissimmee, Fla. while with the Braves in spring training. The Braves suspended Heath on March 26. They formally released him from the organization on April 8.
Heath, 24, was 2-6 with a 5.20 ERA in 32 games, including 14 starts, last season between Class AA Mississippi and Class AAA Gwinnett.

Yet another casualty of a victimless crime…..
Yes, he didn't show good judgment, but the law itself is absurd…..
This kid shouldn't have his life ruined because of this…..He should be admonished, but also be developed (both as a player and person).
It's time society wakes up and stops devoting so much effort and rancor towards victimless crimes, and starts focusing on matters that actually affect your life, liberty, and property….

Kristin, will you be bringing the oil from the back room? What goes around, comes around Ms. K! Be careful up on that "High horse of yours!"
The Braves had an opportunity to teach him about trafficking and sexually transmitted diseases. Still, his name was not Andruw Jones, McGriff, Lemke, or numerous others who "Gentlemen" knew what was commonplace behavior in the beloved Braves organization.

What a freaking jerk. It'll be fun to see him selling hot dogs at Turner Field one day.
A freaking jerk? Are you really that offended by Heath's actions?
The Braves did the right thing in cutting him loose, the classy organization that they are. Other organizations would have probably kept him. It's good business making that move as well as baseball is regarded as "family-friendly" — especially the Minors where everything is family oriented.

Feel bad for the guy screwed up his life on one bad mistake. It's not like he raped someone. He could have been like Big Ben up in Pitt at least he was willing to pay for it.

Wife beating: forgivable, 2 consenting adults agreeing to sex: not forgivable. Steroid use in HOF managers clubhouse: OK, 2 consenting adults agreeing to sex, not OK. I'm sensing a pattern here.

Great point, its ok to beat women cause the Braves will pay u for that but when u try to use their money and give it to a woman oh they'll cut ur butt. So remember kids… soliciting bad spousal abuse good.

Donte Stallworth kills someone while he is driving drunk, and he serves hardly any jail time and then gets his NFL career back. This kid gets horny and loses everything he has worked his entire life for. The society we live in today is really messed up, don't you think.

Steve H….this kid isn't married. He didn't cheat on his wife. Who did he hurt? He didn't hurt anyone in the stands. He didn't hurt anyone in the Braves organization. He didn't hurt you. He paid for sex, something men have been doing for thousands of years. It should be legal. It is a choice between a woman and a man. Big Ben didn't give the woman a choice and what is happening to him? A slap on the wrist. If this had been Chipper Jones, do you think the Braves would have released him? No way. The Braves didn't do the right or moral thing here. They just possibly ruined a kids life. Go Braves!!!

This is a minor leaguer who has been blessed with an ability to perform a sport at a high level. Even then the odds are long against making it to the major leagues. I think that this young man should have been given an opportunity to take a negative situation and turn it into a positive one. It's harsh to take away someone's current livelihood when, as many persons here have pointed out, total forgiveness would have been given to superstars or minor leaguers with star potential. And yes…we are taking about a transaction between two consenting adults. I wish the police would spend more time on other "crimes."
April 17th, 2010

I've never seen the problem with prostitution. Its perfectly accepted in other functioning societies. Its illegal, yes, but this was an overreaction by the front office.

Hey, I have a health care solution. LEGALIZE prostitution, regulate it and put a tax on it. I guarantee that every single LEGAL United States citizen would have very good health care insurance. I should have run for president……because I have what most of the folk's up in Washington don't….Common Sense. Brave's messed up with this kid. He made a bad decision. If this is the first time the Brave's have had a problem with him then I believe that he should have been given one chance to prove that he was sorry and amend for his actions.
April 17th, 2010

The Braves made Heath the victim in a victimless crime. How long was Bobby suspended when he smacked his wife?
Maybe they needed an excuse to axe him. Hope he gets another shot.
April 17th, 2010
9:54 am
Most everyone here is dead on correct on this one…except for Kristen, and no doubt if he was 6 and 2 with a sub 2.00 ERA, he would have not gotten released.
April 17th, 2010

Wonder if Denny Neagle solicited prostitutes while with the Braves or just after?

Yeah, the Braves are being hypocritical with this one. Keep this event in your file, Braves fans when someone on the big league squad does something stupid. (DUI, maybe). Which one is the bigger crime, Kristin?
April 17th, 2010

Can't even get laid with a consenting adult any more. What the heck is happening to democracy?
April 17th, 2010
1:12 pm
As a law enforcement officer in Central Florida I can tell you that this is not a "victimless" crime. Prostitution and other crimes lead to larger more serious crimes and most of the women involved in prostitution are not doing it because they want to, they are doing it because they have been made to do it. They can spread diseases or be the victim themselves of horrific beatings. I was not the officer who arrested Heath but I know them well. Maybe its not that big of a deal and it is probably right that if he had a sub 2.00 era with a 98 mph fastball he would not have gotten released but his actions were part of "gateway crimes" that often lead to much worse crimes. I hope the young man learns from this and get another shot with a different organization.
April 17th, 2010
1:44 pm
The gateway crime is the law inforcement personel that let drug dealers and other criminals ply their trade while others are arrested. There is your gateway. Anyone can spread diseases. Anyone. If prostitution were legal then it wouldn't lead to other crimes. I bet pot leads to heroin use too. Do you know that at this very minute our marines in Afghanistan are harvesting poppies. At this very minute. I know soldiers there. We are harvesting and then paying the afghans for their poppies. We are then giving them vegetable seeds to plant instead of poppies. Guess what our government is doing with the poppies. Just like Vietnam there sending them home in dead soldiers bodies. It's about time Law enforcement went after the real criminals. How about it LT200? Can you arrest the CIA? If not then SHUT-UP until you want to deal with the real criminals.
April 17th, 2010
1:56 pm
Wow, that was some expensive tail.
April 17th, 2010
3:37 pm
The whole "gateway crime" argument is flawed to the core EVERYTIME it is used. There is no objectivity in this type of assessment. Technically, I can make a much stronger argument that criminalizing prostitution is a gateway for abuse and disease. It appears the best way to deal with these underlying issues is to decriminalize and regulate: see the success Netherlands has had with drugs and prostitution…. Drinking water is a gateway for becoming an alcoholic? Going on a date is a gateway for date rape? etc. etc. (stupid stupid stupid) Think, people.
April 17th, 2010
3:41 pm
Oh, and my boss "makes" me go to work too. Am I a victim, or should I move and get a new job? …weeell, it does pay well.
April 17th, 2010
4:47 pm
He obviously had no future in pro ball….why waste the time, the investment, or your patience on such a loser…Good Riddance….
April 17th, 2010
5:09 pm
@Geezer: Yeah, because no pro-baller has ever committed a misdemeanor or a felony. You hate to see someone so young losing their livelihood over a mistake not nearly as egregious as others that other personalities get a slap on the wrist for.
April 17th, 2010
8:07 pm
I used to visit the local brothel before every ballgame, and knock off 8 hot dogs before batting practice. Not bad for a guy with a career .342 batting average.

Remember when Denny Neagle and David Justice got busted for soliciting prostitutes? Justice was married to Halle Berry at the time !

Pterocarpus angolensis lectin (PAL) in complex with the trimannoside [Man(Alpha1-3)]Man(alpha1-6)Man
The crystal structure of a Man/Glc-specific lectin from the seeds of the bloodwood tree (Pterocarpus angolensis), a leguminous plant from central Africa, has been determined in complex with mannose and five manno-oligosaccharides. The lectin contains a classical mannose-specificity loop, but its metal-binding loop resembles that of lectins of unrelated specificity from Ulex europaeus and Maackia amurensis. As a consequence, the interactions with mannose in the primary binding site are conserved, but details of carbohydrate-binding outside the primary binding site differ from those seen in the equivalent carbohydrate complexes of concanavalin A. These observations explain the differences in their respective fine specificity profiles for oligomannoses. While Man(alpha1-3)Man and Man(alpha1-3)[Man(alpha1-6)]Man bind to PAL in low-energy conformations identical with that of ConA, Man(alpha1-6)Man is required to adopt a different conformation. Man(alpha1-2)Man can bind only in a single binding mode, in sharp contrast to ConA, which creates a higher affinity for this disaccharide by allowing two binding modes.

Waiting For Ray - APRIL 1911 Reviews
The stress is starting to get to everyone.
"Donna, I've tried. He just keeps saying he can't leave Ray. He wants to be here when Ray wakes up." Alicia herself didn't look to far from breaking down.
Don stood, "I'll go talk to him." He wasn't sure what to say to his son but he hoped he could convince him to go home and get some sleep. Donna gave him an encouraging smile as he left.
"Have you talked to Monica yet?" Donna asked Alicia, "How is she?"
Alicia frowned, " She's alert and doesn't have any memory loss but when she talks it's like hard for her to get the words out. Gee said the doctor told him that's not unusual but I can tell he's still worried."
Donna sighed, "He worries as much as Mikey, he just keeps it hidden more."
Frank and Jamia joined them. "We were just up talking to Ray. Mikey's talking to him now. He's telling him stories about out first tour, shit I had forgotten so much of the stuff Mikey was talking about. That seems like a lifetime ago." Frank took a seat and looked down lost in thought.
"Jamia how are you feeling?" Donna asked her with motherly concern. "Any morning sickness?"
"Nope, I've been feeling pretty good physically but mentally that's a different story. I think I'm turning into a blimp." She laughed trying to shake off the stress of today but it wasn't easy. Taking a seat next to her husband she looked over at him. He was so upset she just wanted to see him smile. She was happy when he looked up at her.
"You're my beautiful blimp" Frank told her with a grin. He put his arms around her and hugged her tightly.
"We were just talking about Mikey before you walked in, we need to get him to go home for tonight." Donna said sadly.
Frank agreed, "He's so torn up about Ray. You know how he gets. Ray had asked him to go to lunch with him after the interview but he decided to ride home with me. Now I'm sure he thinks things wouldn't have turned out like this if he had gone with Ray."
"Shit, I didn't know that." Alicia said, "He didn't tell me."
"Well I just hope Don can convince him to go home. You both can come back in the morning, if there is any change Gerard will call. He's gonna stay with Monica tonight." Donna looked up to see Gerard coming down the hall.
"Where's Bob?" he asked as he walked in.
"He's been sitting with Ray's family. You want Jamia and I to go tell him Kara is here?" Frank guessed.
Gerard nodded, "Yea, she asked me to find him for her. Monica seems to be speaking a little better," he told them. It really wasn't the truth but he wanted to believe it was. Even after the doctor said it was to be expected he still hated to see her struggle to speak.
"It will just take some time, honey." His mom said, "She will get better each day."
He nodded, "Mikey up with Ray?'
Alicia answered, "Yea and so is your dad. He's trying to talk Mikey into going home for tonight."
"He needs to get out of here, it's messing with him. The last thing we need is for Mikey to have a break down."
"He's just upset, Gerard. He's not gonna have a break down." Alicia shot back. She hadn't meant to snap at him but her nerves were getting the best of her. Her husband was so upset and nothing she said or did seemed to help.
Gerard sighed, "I'm not saying Mikey is weak, but shit hits him harder than the rest of us. Now he's blaming himself for not going to lunch with Ray after the interview. He really thinks he could have changed all this shit."
Frank stood and pulled Jamia up out of her chair. "We'll tell Bob that Kara is here then I'm taking Jamia home. She's tired and there nothing else we can do tonight. Call us if anything changes." He was worried about Jamia and because of her pregnancy he wanted to keep as much stress from her as he could.
They said goodbye and went in search of Bob. Gerard sat in the chair across from his mom and leaned his head back against the wall. "I told the girls they could stay until nine then they needed to go home and get some sleep. I promised they could come back first thing in the morning."
"Don and I will bring them back in the morning." Donna told him. She looked at her son who had tilted his head back up, "He's staying at the house tonight." she added quietly.
Gerard sat up straighter and tried not to look surprised but it was impossible, "Dad's staying with you tonight?"
"Yes Gerard, your dad is staying at the house tonight. Don't read too much into it." She smiled. "Well maybe you can read a little into it."
He grinned at her and was about to say something else but saw his dad and brother walking towards them. As they neared he saw how bad Mikey looked. "Going home for tonight?" he asked hopefully.
Mikey nodded, "You'll call me if there is any change right?"
"For sure, bro" Gerard told him, "Get some sleep. Tomorrow you can tell Ray some more stories that are sure to wake him."
Mikey didn't look convinced, "If anything can wake him," he muttered. Hope was something that Mikey was having trouble holding on to in his heart.
Alicia stood and put her arms around him, "Come on honey, I'll drive." They said goodbye to everyone and headed toward the elevators.
Don took the seat next to Donna. He reached over and took her hand. Gerard tried to hide his smile. "I'm gonna go talk to the girls and Monica." He began to walk down the hall but glanced back over his shoulder. His dad leaned over and gave his mom a kiss. This time Gerard didn't have to hide his smile.
Monica was trying not to doze off but the medicine they had given her was making it very hard. It was a comfort to her just to hear her daughter's voices. She tried to focus on their questions as they spoke to her.
"Mama, when do you get to come home?" Kelly asked. She has perched on the foot of the bed.
"Haven't told me," Monica answered. She was growing frustrated she couldn't speak without trouble. She prayed tomorrow it would be easier for her to talk.
Kara sat forward in her chair, "Mom, Donna told us it was Jenn. I'm glad they got her. I hope they put her in jail and never let her out. She's fu.. uh, freaking crazy."
Monica looked at her sadly, "She's mentally sick."
Kelly looked down at the floor, "Like Daddy was." she said in a whisper.
Kara glanced at her mom and knew this subject would upset her. She saw her mom staring at Kelly; she looked as if she was about to cry. Kara took a deep breath and tried to handle the situation, "Kelly, our dad was a good man but yea, he had some mental problems. That doesn't change that he loved us. He was just mentally sick."
Monica looked over at Kara and gave her grateful smile. Kara was holding up so well. Monica was proud of her.
Kelly nodded, "Yea I know." She thought a moment and then told her mom, "I told Gerard I loved him, that was OK wasn't it? I mean, he is gonna be my step-dad." She ducked her head and added, "I do love him. I want him to be my dad."
Monica was so touched by her words, "It was good you told him." It was getting harder for her to stay awake, her eyelids were growing heavy.
Gerard had heard Kelly's question and her remarks went straight to his heart. "He walked in and smiled, 'Well I'm glad you love me cause I love you and your sister."
Kara looked surprised by his words. Kelly smiled up at him and Monica drifted off to sleep with a smile on her face.
"Come on I'll walk you guys out." Gerard whispered to them. They all took one last look at Monica and filed out.
"I wanted to stay until nine" Kelly said sadly. They met with Don and Donna in the waiting room.
Bob was sitting with them and when he saw Kara he stood and took her into his arms. "How are you holding up?" he whispered into her ear.
She sighed, "I'm OK, just tired, I guess. Can you drive me home?" She wanted to spend some time with him alone.
He nodded then turned to Donna, "I'm gonna take Kara home, if she's up to it we might stop for coffee." He looked at Kara and she nodded.
Donna understood they needed to spend some time alone, "That's fine. I'll see you at the house." she told Kara.
After they left Gerard spoke a few more minutes with this parents and Kelly before walking them to the elevators. "I'll see you in the morning." he told them.
"Take care of mama." Kelly whispered in his ear when he hugged her goodbye.
"I always will" he whispered back, "I promise."

The Krinkles
3: The Mordorloff Collection
By: Rinjo Njori
If the album cover from The Krinkles' latest album looks familiar it's because the cover is a pretty faithful recreation of the 20th Century Masters - The Millennium Collection, the most successful Canadian Greatest Hits series of all time. Regardless of the "wink and nod" art work The Krinkles are coming off their own self imposed hiatus. For the unitiated, the Chicago four piece has been around for roughly a decade and released two previous albums, Three Ringos and Revenge of The Krinkles.
The new album delivers a fairly even mix of "Power Pop Punk Rock". The anthemic "Today is The Day's" contains less sneer and scowl then your average pop punk. The feel good, positive lyrics work well with the music. Especially when you consider other songs like "Dirty Girl" that has the same energy with decidedly darker overtones. This might make it harder to separate the more humorous songs from the "serious" songs. "Best Friend" examines the concept of a platonic love song, ideal for the average guy's "bro-mance." Considering a few tracks here sound like Weezer, it wouldn't be unfair to call this River and Matt's theme song.
"Gimme Gimme" is another decent track that is reminiscent of San Francisco's The Rubinoos. "Listen to the Future" captures that late 90s alternative sound. The Krinkles hinted at that sound on their previous two releases but were never able to achieve it with great effect. The chorus reminds me of a few songs from one hit wonder's Fastball. If there is one song on this album that might catch on based on sheer talent it is "Friday Night". The vocals and music come into perfect harmony. The song plays up that same magic formula that bands like Plain White T's have honed and turned into surprising commercial appeal. "So... Goodbye" and "Outerspace" are worth the price of admission. In five plus minutes they capture all the signature sounds of early 80s power pop. Rising vocals, one memorable solo, and inspirational vocals. These songs are demos but are clearly the strongest of fifteen tracks which make up 3: The Mordorloff Collection.
Like every other band that spreads themselves too thin, there are a few tunes that clearly shouldn't have made the cut. Prime examples here are "Stay With Me", which represents the "token" underwhelming love song, and the Weezer-esque take on bad metal that is "Blinded by Love". When The Krinkles slow things down the mistakes add up. Luckily the strength of the majority of the album makes these "low lights" less noticeable.
It's doubtful that The Krinkles could or would indulge this reviewer and write more songs with Springfield-esque chorus' like "So.. Goodbye" or the dramatic lyrical overtones on "Outerspace". More likely they will and should stick to the anthemic pop punk that holds 3: The Mordorloff Collection together. A couple of more albums like this might rate The Krinkles their very own 21st Century Masters Series. That is if the Canadians agree.

Gwynedd Archaeological Trust
Regional Historic Environment Record
Hillfort, Dinas Emrys, Beddgelert
Primary Reference Number (PRN)
: 1462
: Gwynedd
: Beddgelert
Site Type (preferred type first)
: Early Medieval HILLFORT
Legal Protection
: Scheduled Ancient Monument
Summary :
Dinas Emrys is well known as the site of the legendary confrontation between Vortigern and Ambrosius, recounted by Nennius in the 9th century. The site occupies a small, steep-sided hill some 70m above the floor of the Glaslyn valley. The summit is craggy and irregular with an enclosed area of approximately 1.2 hectares.
The fort was partially excavated by H.N.Savory in 1954 and since then a number of different and occasionally contradictary interpretations of the site have been offered. However the main phases of occupations seem to start with a possible palisade of pre-Roman date, followed by an early Romano British phase evidenced by 1st century AD pottery. A later Romano British phase is indicated by ceramics and glassware, including late 3rd or 4th century mortaria and colour coated wares. The glassware is dated as late or post Roman. An imported amphora and a sherd of pottery stamped with the chi-rho symbol are evidence of early medieval use of the site - this is also the period to which the ramparts are thought to date. The latest phase of activity on the site is the rectangular stone tower, likely to belong the the reign of Llywelyn ap Iorwerth (d.AD 1240).
Description :
A fort occupying a small hill the ancient remains are generally ruinous and confused.
The entrance seems to have been from the west end, the natural line of the ascent in narrowed by a ruinous wall. Above this the ascent led to a gap in a second rampart, about 80yds east of the first. This rampart extends for about 40yds ending on the top of the precipices. The innermost rampart lies 40yds further east penetrated by a gap. Halfway between these two ramparts access is further hindered by a natural crag about 10ft high, ending on a precipices, and only to be passed by a narrow track.
The ramparts are very ruinous, but they appear to have been about 10ft thick, of rubble faced with laid stone. Where natural slopes provide sufficient defence the walls seems to be absent or have been reduced to no more than an ordinary field boundary in thickness.
A tower measures 32ft N - S by 23ft the walls are about 4ft thick with the external face battered of rubble masonry laid dry and jointed with clay, there is no visible entrance.
The remains are probably those of a 12th century tower comparable to the earlier building at Dolwyddelan.
Dinas Emrys figures in several traditional stories Nennius records magical events associated with Vortigern's attempt to build a palace above the spring there, later the burial of the dragons which appear in that story is explained, and a very late tradition makes the fort the site of a battle between Owen son of Maximus, and the Irishman Urnach. <1>
An Iron Age bronze teret from this site is now in the NMW. <2>
Dating of a sample of wood from a 1.2m deep posthole yielded a date of 650+ or -100yrs. The sample was originally thought to be Iron Age. C14 date of 650+/- 100yrs unexpectedly late. Sample originally thought to be Iron Age with site extending into the 12th century. <3>
Site description <4> <5> <6>
A stone walled fort making use of natural scarps or slope and therefore irregular in outline, with a lower annexe enclosing a lower terrace of the hill. (Smith, 2006)

If it can be said that the freshest of the fresh artistic creations bubble up from "underground," then it should come as no surprise that the vast network of tunnels that comprise the coiled entrails of Paris' infamous catacombs has long served as a place where creative Parisians bent on escaping the trappings of society, hemmed in by signs and signifiers girding the city's surface, retreat to the "freedom" of the damp and hard-cut, cramped lawlessness that thrives beneath the streets, expressing themselves with dim-lit abandon. Veteran graffiti artist Psyckoze has spent more than 25 years traversing, tagging, sculpting and mapping the catacombs beneath Paris, a perilous proclivity that makes the documentary Dead Space infinitely watchable.
The Parisian catacombs have always held a certain fascination, whether it be a fear of the dark-generated late night creepshow vibe (must be because of all those skulls 'n' things down in there) or a more sensationalist ghost-hunters of "reality" television programming feel, the mere mention of the mysterious, bone littered underworld beneath the French capitol always stirs the imagination. In following Psyckoze on several adventures throughout the underground maze, documentary film-makers Marielle Quesney and Jean Labourdette nearly destroy their camera (they claim it was held together by duct tape by the end of shooting) and find themselves lost on more than one occasion while Pyschoze, or Psy, encounters graffiti and scrawls of years (sometimes hundreds of years) gone by, often stopping to update his own tags with the fresh designs of his evolved artistic style, and discovers a myriad of threats and claims laid by various catacomb clans, gangs (like the Rats, who were prominent in the eighties) and wanderers who have at one time or another called the catacombs home. There is even a faction of preservationist catacombers who seek to stop taggers like Psy, arguing that the tunnels should be cleaned and restored to their natural sandstone tones (which is not unreasonable, really, when you consider the quarry origins of the catacombs, which were once used to mine and transport building materials as far back as 1000 years).
Shot on a shoestring budget over the course of two years, Dead Space follows Psy as he conducts a surprisingly cohesive tour of the catacombs below Paris (clad in his habitual rubber boots and mining helmet catacomb gear), stopping here and there to highlight several of the more famous subterranean hang-outs like "the Beach" (a large, sandy chamber with a huge painting of a wave --- styled after Hokusai's famous woodblock print --- where parties often rage underground for days) and revealing Psy's personal secret hideaways, including his "castle" --- a sprawling freehand relief sculpture of breasts, faces, battlements and turrets comprising what has to be Psy's ultimate psychedelic masterpiece, laden with personal significance (example: Psy carved a turret in the castle for every year his good friend and fellow catacomber spent locked up in a Thai jail, nine altogether). However, it is clear that most folks who venture down into the catacombs have something other than artistic creation and personal reflection in mind.

Douglas Dynamics Inc. Stock Upgraded (PLOW)
- EXCLUSIVE OFFER: Jim Cramer's Protégé, Dave Peltier, only buys Stocks Under $10 that he thinks could potentially double. See what he's trading today with a 14-day FREE pass.
- The debt-to-equity ratio is somewhat low, currently at 0.85, and is less than that of the industry average, implying that there has been a relatively successful effort in the management of debt levels. To add to this, PLOW has a quick ratio of 1.95, which demonstrates the ability of the company to cover short-term liquidity needs.
- PLOW, with its decline in revenue, underperformed when compared the industry average of 12.3%. Since the same quarter one year prior, revenues fell by 29.4%. The declining revenue appears to have seeped down to the company's bottom line, decreasing earnings per share.
- DOUGLAS DYNAMICS INC's earnings per share declined by 44.4% in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. This company has reported somewhat volatile earnings recently. We feel it is likely to report a decline in earnings in the coming year. During the past fiscal year, DOUGLAS DYNAMICS INC increased its bottom line by earning $0.86 versus $0.06 in the prior year. For the next year, the market is expecting a contraction of 68.6% in earnings ($0.27 versus $0.86).
- The gross profit margin for DOUGLAS DYNAMICS INC is currently lower than what is desirable, coming in at 32.50%. Regardless of PLOW's low profit margin, it has managed to increase from the same period last year. Despite the mixed results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 6.21% trails the industry average.
- In its most recent trading session, PLOW has closed at a price level that was not very different from its closing price of one year earlier. This is probably due to its weak earnings growth as well as other mixed factors. The stock's price rise over the last year has driven it to a level which is somewhat expensive compared to the rest of its industry. We feel, however, that other strengths this company displays justify these higher price levels.

The bantamweight UFC star discusses her fight against Cat Zingano, and answers the same 10 questions we always ask everyone.
Photo by Jim Kemper/ Getty
You went pretty hard for the first two rounds in your fight against Cat Zingano in Vegas earlier this month. How was that fight for you?
I knew Cat was going to be an incredibly tough fight. It didn't surprise me that she didn't go down with that or that she didn't tap - I was expecting an all-out war, and that's what we got!
Did you feel the fight was stopped too early?
Yes, I know how I felt inside the cage…I'm pissed to say the least. I'm definitely not happy. Fuck, I still felt like I was in the fight. I don't feel like for one second that it should have been stopped, I wanted to keep fighting!
What was the last thing you had to apologize for?
Being a total bitch in my training camp! I did have to apologize for that, because I was! It happens…we have our good days and bad days. But when I have a bad day in training, you don't want to be anywhere near me…
What's your favorite curse word?
Probably "shit."
What's the worst hangover you've ever had?
My 21st birthday - I learned a very heavy lesson that day! I just remember leaning over the toilet, projectile, on the wall, and I was like, this is horrible! I really try not to drink like that at all, I'm a couple-of-glasses-of-wine kinda girl. That's about it, I don't like to get all crazy.
