Weaker construction of hotels, manufacturing facilities and health care facilities in the private sector left January construction spending flat with December, the U.S. Census Bureau reported Thursday.

Why Recent Job Gains May Stick This Time
The U.S. job market's recent improvement has some economists wondering if 2012 will break from last year's pattern of strong job growth in the winter followed by a slowing in the spring and summer.

For the first time in a long while, there will be some roster turnover for the Detroit Red Wings this season. While a few familiar faces have exited, some new players give Detroit a lot of depth, both up front and on the back end.
The last of the 1997 and 1998 Stanley Cup-winning squads are almost gone with the retirements of Chris Osgood and Kris Draper. Nicklas Lidstrom and Tomas Holmstrom are the last remaining players from either one of those teams. Both players will have a somewhat reduced role this season, however, as younger players are expected to take on bigger responsibilities.
Holmstrom will likely be relegated to the fourth line with an occasional stint on a scoring unit. His net-front presence on the power play will continue, and he is still one of the best at that role in the league, despite being a little long in the tooth.
Lidstrom, on the other hand, is coming off of his seventh Norris Trophy and is still playing like a top-tier blueliner. But the coaching staff wants to keep his minutes down to preserve the elder statesman for a possible playoff push. Niklas Kronwall will likely be the top minute muncher on the back end this season.
Here are the possible line combinations for this season based on training camp:
Dan Cleary – Pavel Datsyuk – Patrick Eaves
Datsyuk remains one of the craftier players in the league, both offensively and defensively. He is a wizard with the puck and a relentless back-checker. Cleary and Eaves are similar players possessing good skills and quick skating strides. Eaves may get a chance at a scoring role after playing on the third and fourth line for the Red Wings over the last two years. He has a great shot and will not be out of place at all.
Valtteri Filppula – Henrik Zetterberg – Johan Franzen
There isn't really a first and second line in Detroit. It's more like 1 and 1A. Zetterberg, the Red Wings returning point leader, gets two very solid offensive players on this line. Franzen is a power forward with a tremendous shot. He is a very streaky scorer, but Franzen also has two great passers at his disposal on this line. Filppula has been better on the wing than as the second line center, a role he played when Datsyuk and Zetterberg were together. This should be a productive unit.
Justin Abdelkader – Darren Helm – Todd Bertuzzi
This is the new version of the "two kids and a goat" line, a unit that was originally made up of Datsyuk, Boyd Devereaux and former sniper Brett Hull. Zetterberg replaced Devereaux to make the more famous – and more successful – version. While there isn't nearly as much offensive flair to this combination, there is a lot of speed, tenacity and potential. Abdelkader and Helm are two players who Detroit's management thinks are key components to the future. Both are relentless puck hounds. Bertuzzi's soft hands and skill should be a nice compliment and help get the best out of the two youngsters, while giving Bertuzzi a shot of adrenaline.
Drew Miller – Cory Emmerton – Jan Mursak
This is one unit that isn't set by any stretch. The eight preseason games will decide who makes the cut. Miller signed for two years in the offseason and has been a key member of the penalty-killing unit. Coach Mike Babcock loves Mursak's game and has repeatedly complimented him throughout training camp. His speed rivals Darren Helm, but Mursak also has soft hands and serious offensive potential. Emmerton has the inside track at the fourth-line center job as he has paid his dues for three seasons in Grand Rapids. He brings good hockey sense and skills on both ends of the ice, but many in the organization think he should be more productive offensively with his skill set.
On the outside looking in:
Jiri Hudler is going to be on a short leash. After just 10 goals last season at nearly $3 million per year, Hudler might spend more time in the press box than on the ice if he doesn't turn things around. He will probably be rotated as a healthy scratch with Emmerton, Miller and possibly Mursak. Training camp invites Ryan Johnson and Fabian Brunnstrom will have to go to Grand Rapids if they want to stay with the organization, unless they have unbelievable performances during the preseason.
Nicklas Lidstrom – Ian White
Lidstrom just won a seventh Norris Trophy and is still one of the best defensemen in the league. A new partner – particularly a right-handed player – to replace Brian Rafalski is the likely route Detroit will travel. Lidstrom and White could also be the blueliners on the first power-play unit. White brings a calm, steady presence to a defensive corps that turned the puck over a lot last season. Despite his lack of ideal size, White is also a tough player who isn't afraid to protect himself or his teammates.
Niklas Kronwall – Brad Stuart
A very productive tandem in the past, Kronwall and Stuart are by far the most physical unit on the team. Kronwall's open-ice hits on Dany Heatley and Ryane Clowe during last season's playoff series with San Jose illustrate his physical prowess. Stuart is no slouch, either. He led the team in hits last season, and the only teammate that came close was Abdelkader. With Lidstrom taking a slightly smaller amount of ice time, Kronwall and Stuart will have to step up and contribute even more.
Jonathan Ericsson – Mike Commodore/Jakub Kindl
With a new contract comes new responsibilities and expectations, especially when you're Jonathan Ericsson. Many believe the Red Wings overpaid to keep the 6-foot-5 d-man, but he's hoping to prove otherwise. Babcock has said during training camp that Ericsson has looked steady and poised, perhaps his biggest downfall during his struggles. The real competition here is between the youngster Jakub Kindl, who played very well toward the end of last season, and newcomer Mike Commodore. They play contrasting styles, as Kindl is more of a finesse player despite his big stature. He has a very good offensive game, and the Red Wings think he is a big part of their future. Commodore brings a presence that Detroit hasn't had recently, a punishing, net-clearing blueliner who toes the line between physical and dirty. Look for both to get a lot of playing time.
On the outside looking in:
Prospect Brendan Smith is perhaps the most highly-touted defenseman in the Red Wings' system in recent memory. The Red Wings' scouts and front office members love his offensive abilities, and his defensive skills are improving rapidly. He is being looked at – as much as anyone possibly could – as the "replacement" for Lidstrom when he retires. Of course, no one player is going to replace Lidstrom. It will be a team effort. But Smith is simply the best young player in the system and perhaps one of the best defensive prospects in all of hockey. Veteran Doug Janik returns to the Grand Rapids Griffins, but with the depth on the back end this season, it's unlikely he will see much NHL time, if any.
Jimmy Howard
Detroit showed its faith in Howard by rewarding the netminder with a two-year extension toward the end of last season. Although his save percentage and goals against average took a bit of a downturn, he still posted 37 wins – the same as his rookie season – with a sub-par defense in front of him. He performed admirably in the playoffs, and with the retirement of Chris Osgood, Howard will have to carry most of the load in Detroit.
Ty Conklin/Joey MacDonald
Babcock has made it very clear that just because the Red Wings signed Ty Conklin, that doesn't automatically mean he will get the backup job. MacDonald played pretty well in spot duty last season for Detroit, notching a .924 save percentage and 2.21 goals against average. Conklin struggled mightily with St. Louis last season. The only certainty is that the backup battle in Detroit is far from decided.
On the outside looking in:
Former first-round pick Thomas McCollum has really struggled since turning professional. He had such a bad go of it during his rookie season in Grand Rapids that he was sent to the East Coast Hockey League's Toledo Walleye, where he still couldn't get it together. The Red Wings like his potential, however, and many within the organization believe he is talented enough to play in the NHL. His confidence must improve, and the mental aspect seems to be McCollum's biggest hurdle. The Red Wings are looking for a bounce-back season this year to remind them why they took a risk by spending a first-round pick on a goaltender.

Watching a baby take her first steps is one of the proudest moments in a parent's life. There's nothing sweeter than seeing your toddler shakily teeter toward you, arms outstretched a la Frankenstein. And while it may seem like your baby still has a long way to go before they've got the walking thing down pat, you'll soon be collapsing from exhaustion after chasing a running toddler around all day.
"Most children wind up walking around their first birthday," says Robyn Strosaker, MD, Director of Inpatient Services at University Hospital's Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio. Some children will start walking a few months earlier and others won't begin strutting their stuff until around 17 or 18 months old.
Up until about 9 to 10 months of age, baby's primary means of transportation is ... you. But around this time, they'll likely start crawling, which means two things for Mom and Dad: Baby is officially free to explore the world on his own (well, as much as a 9-month-old can explore the world on his own), and time to childproof! Typically, babies will learn to properly crawl by slithering around on their elbows and bellies a la army-style, but some babies may skip this adorable milestone altogether and go straight to walking. "Some babies never crawl and will move right from scooting or pulling themselves on their elbows to walking," notes Robyn Strosaker, MD, Director of Inpatient Services at University Hospital's Rainbow Babies & Children's Hospital in Cleveland, Ohio.
Ever since Rissa was a baby it has been impossible to keep socks on her for very long. She used to kick them off, now she yanks them off as soon as her shoes are off.
But it's not her socks that caught my attention the other day.
When we first heard Kate Middleton and Prince William had taken off to Maldives for a romantic holiday, we were thrilled the couple was able to sneak off to enjoy some well-deserved one-on-one time! But now, the royal couple may be kicking themselves for jetting off.
While they were hitting the beach at the Cheval Blanc Randheli resort in early March, 8-month-old Prince George reportedly crawled for the very first time while staying with his grandparents Carole and Michael Middleton in Bucklebury, claims a source in the new issue of Us Weekly. Ugh.
I can't help but wonder if whoever broke this news thought of perhaps biting their tongue, so Kate and Wills could see George do it again and be none the wiser that it was actually his second or third time? Perhaps ignorance would've been bliss, hmm?
Congratulations on your child's high-school graduation, dear most people I grew up with. Hang on a second... What's that? Wow! My child just handed me a chunk of her own poop.Because I waited until age 46 to reproduce, I could be my own two-year-old daughter's grandfather. I don't look my age, which is great. (It wasn't great while trying to avoid the inside of middle-school dumpsters because I looked like a fetus with hair. But it works now.)Still, the sad fact is that I may not live to see my daughter graduate high school, much less ever meet my own grandchild. ("You never know," my wife jokes. "You could get lucky; she could become a teen mom.") But even if I do live that long, I will probably be eating dinner at 4:30 p.m., sending out mass blank emails and handing my daughter chunks of my poop.
There's something about being pregnant on New Year's Eve and day that makes you feel more reflective. Blame it on sobriety, but it's actually really nice to spend the holiday with a clear mind that gives you the power to actually make resolutions you'll want to keep. I've never been one for promising myself I'll spend more time at the gym or eat less meat after January 1 -- but I'm all for resolutions that can slowly be achieved over the course of the year.
And so I've vowed to make 2014 the year I focus solely on goals that will make me a better mom. Talk about pressure!
You know the whole hindsight is 20/20 thing? The older my son gets, the more I realize just how true it is. There are so many instances where I just want to go back in time and savor all of the special moments I probably didn't appreciate as much as I should have.
Like when he was a toddler, for example. Yes, that period in time was chaotic, challenging, and often seemed like it would never end -- but it was also so special and unique. I only wish I'd done a better job of documenting it so I could remember more of it today. (Pictures only go so far.)
I know this is probably going to sound pretty weird, but my son is nearly 8 years old -- and he still hasn't lost any teeth. Yep, every single one of his baby teeth are still fully intact, and as far as I can tell, none of them are the least bit loose either.
And I feel kinda bad for the little guy. At least once a week, he comes home and tells me that another one of his friends lost another tooth -- and he asks me why he hasn't lost any and when he is going to lose them.
Of course, I don't have the answer, so I just keep telling him that it'll happen soon enough and that he cut teeth late (11 1/2 months), which is probably why he hasn't lost any yet.
I'm not quite sure if a baby's first birthday is a bigger milestone for the baby or for the parents. When my twins turned 1, I remember feeling like I crossed the finish line of a marathon. There was a lot of champagne and multiple cakes -- although my girls didn't quite know what to do with them.
Looking back on it, I wish I'd been aware of the trend that so many parents have caught on to: Set the birthday kid up with their very own smash cake, a separate, aptly proportioned confection presented without utensils for the honoree to enjoy in whatever manner they see fit.
They can feel free to squeeze it, drool on it, crumble it, face plant in it. You name it. No one else is going to eat it but them!
Here are a few reasons why this is an absolutely genius idea:
We all know being a parent has its challenges. But here are some words of wisdom I received that have made the job a bit easier.
"Take off the baby's shoes and socks before changing him." I read this in a book and it stuck with me. I never would have thought of it. But this advice has saved me several times from the odorless-until-revealed Poo Monster that occasionally takes residence in my son's diaper. Poo and urine wipe off of skin pretty easily (most of the time); getting them out of clothes isn't so simple.

It's spring! (For those of us in the northern hemisphere, I should clarify.) Everything is popping out -- flowers, trees, bushes, and lots and lots of skin. Yes, it's time for the perennial topic of modesty.
If you aren't old enough to remember life before the Internet, you are probably unaware that women used to go to work with a lot more fabric on. Seriously. In fact, in professional settings, no one ever showed their cleavage, their bellies, or their lower-back tattoos. It was common to have office dress codes that specified closed-toe shoes, pantyhose, and actual suits. (For the one or two of you who have to still dress this way--and you know who you are there in DC!--you have my sympathies.) Back then, women wanted to be taken seriously for their aptitude, not their assets. But don't get me wrong: I am not arguing for a return to sweating in pantyhose in muggy July weather. Ugh.
What I am saying is that we have to realize that fashion has evolved this way because of the "pornification" of our culture in the last 15 years or so. There are specific values being cultivated and advertised through fashion--and that means women in the church are affected, too. We might not consciously know or agree with the "porn positive" ideology that courses through our culture at present. But rest assured, we are no different from the women addressed in New Testament churches who sought attention with their clothing and opulent hair styles. The fashions may be different, but the heart issues are the same. So in humility, each year it's good to evaluate how far we've drifted from biblical standards toward other patterns.
This year, we have the assistance of a chapter titled "God, My Heart, and Modesty" from the forthcoming book, Worldliness: Resisting the Seduction of a Fallen World. In it, C.J. Mahaney says: "I write this chapter as the father of three daughters, now grown. I write as a pastor with a growing concern for the erosion of modesty among Christian women today. I write because God's glory is at stake in the way women dress. I write about modesty because God has first written about it in his eternal Word."

Nashville, TN (Sports Network) - Kedren Johnson scored 15 points, leading four players in double figures, as the Vanderbilt Commodores posted a 73-61 win over the Auburn Tigers in SEC action at Memorial Gym.
Kyle Fuller accounted for 14 points off the bench for the Commodores (8-9, 2-3 SEC), followed by Kevin Bright and Sheldon Jeter with 12 and 10 points, respectively, as the team won for the second time in as many games.
The Tigers (8-10, 2-3) were paced by Rob Chubb and Frankie Sullivan with 14 points apiece, while Brian Greene tacked on 11 off the bench as the squad suffered a third straight setback.
Auburn shot an impressive 50 percent from the floor in the first half, compared to just 35.7 percent for the hosts, yet it was Vandy that owned a 34-27 advantage at the break as it outscored the Tigers 10-1 at the free-throw line in the period.
In the second half the Commodores again shot well at the free-throw line, 14- of-18, and at the same time limited Auburn to just 35.5 percent accuracy from the floor, en route to the double-digit win.
Both teams made good on 9-of-24 behind the 3-point line on the night, the big difference coming at the charity stripe where Vandy held a 24-8 scoring edge.

CHMOD dirs not in install guide
12 February 2009 at 12:53am
I have looked and searched for what folders to chmod 777.
Why isnt anything about this told in the guide or wiki?
This is so strange that there is no mention about this.
I installed this last week and I do remeber after alot of searching i found it but now I lost the url that told this.
But its strange that it isnt under "installatioN" or in t he files in the downloaded pack.

The installation itself should provide information whether permissions need to be changed, really there is no set guide as to what you need to have apart from assets/ needs to be 777. The installer needs to write to mysite/* as well

By the time the next patch comes the welfare raiding mentality will be as deeply entrenched as the welfare PvP mentality was in BC. Hell, it pretty much already is, as evidenced by the ludicrous number of idiotic articles trying to come up with excuses for it.
There's a reason it's always been "Make it god awful hard, then nerf it down to the common folk". You take something and make it easier and people will thank you. Try going the other way -- take something that's easy and make it harder -- and expect a lynch mob. That's just basic human nature at work.
As with Kara (which was an utter nightmare when it first came out and sure the hell wasn't PuG bait the first week the way Naxx is) before it, Playskool Naxx has set the pace. Oh, sure, what comes from here will be harder, but the starting bar has been set so low that "harder" doesn't mean a whole lot.

Albany -- Despite financial troubles, DeLosh Mazda of Albany is still open for business.
Bob DeLosh said Friday that while the property has been foreclosed on, they are working on a plan with the bank, and working with a Michigan buyer, and hope to have a deal worked out by next week.
For now, DeLosh Mazda is open-- doing repair work, and still selling cars.
DeLosh says Albany is a tough car town and that everyone on the auto strip on Oglethorpe Boulevard has had difficulty selling cars.
The DeLosh brothers still own and run another dealership in Fitzgerald.

TWT Management to Discuss Exec. Overthrow at 10AM
Sources inside The Washington Times say that the paper's management team has been called together for a 10 am meeting to discuss the Moon brother's surprise overthrow of three top executives.
President and publisher Thomas P. McDevitt, CFO Keith Cooperrider and Chairman Dong Moon Joo are all out according to a press release that TWT issued this morning. The release also names Jonathan Slevin as acting president and publisher.
Rumors are swirling that Executive Editor John Solomon who's been in his position since January of 2008 may resign as a result of the shakeup. In my humble opinion, that would be mean huge trouble for the Times and a blow to morale that I'm not certain the newsroom could handle.
According to our sources, TWT staff has not been briefed nor received any information regarding the changes or implications of the shakeup.

Bragging and knowledge..
(I don't know everything so any comment/correction/exchange of knowledge is mostly welcomed).
Last year I wrote a lengthy blog post about Japan (very) fine dining. And I'm keen to elaborate on that idea and how, as an informed foreigner traveling to Japan, you can make the most of your situation. Again this is not *basic* knowledge and you may Google for the basic elsewhere. (I'm not a snob but I feel the information above the *basic* doesn't seem to exist on the Internet so much).
Knowledge – correct or not – is key as it could ignite curiosity of the Japanese, or even better, a conversation. This knowledge isn't necessarily aimed at chefs but also to your diners next to you. To me, Japan is a country with a stubbornly exclusive mentality and the best you can do to become less excluded is to tease the chefs with what you know and do not know. Direct or indirect conversation that the chefs can hear can lead to an unfolding of a more-than-ordinary experience. (I can't tell you how exactly to *do it* but you can surely find a way).
(Click the links for photos).
Seasons (roughly)
The knowledge I'd like to share today is that of seasons in sushi toppings (i.e. fish, shellfish, whatever). I divide the seasons into 4 (spring, summer, autumn, winter) and focus mainly on what's available when. There are, of course, sub-seasons in Japan, which in the future I will have more knowledge of and can elaborate. It is also noteworthy that in Japan a few fish and shellfish are enjoyed at different stages in their life and these different stages in life are indicated by different names.
Kisu (Sand Whiting) – white fish, "shirogisu" prime in summer, bitter skin, low fat, prepared "kobujime"
Kazunoko (Herring Roe) – salt pickle, "spring kazunoko" in Hokkaido
Tairagai (Pen Shell) – similar to hotate/scallop but bigger, crunchy and not as sweet, inedible mantles
Torigai (Japanese cockle) – purple black leg like bird beck
Shako (Mantis Shrimp) – 15cm, half ebi half kani, "tsume" sauce, "katsubushi" roe, until summer
Katsuo (Bonito) – "first" or "spring" katsuo, lean
Karei (Flounder) – translucent, "engawa" fin sinew
Kawahagi (Filefish) – firm, rough skin, prepared "kobujime", liver usage
Kochi – "fugu of summer", tough, Kinkai area
Suzuki (Perch/Sea Bass) – not good in August due to spawning, stomach fattier than backbone area, 4yr old name (koppa – young; seigo – 1yr; fukko – 2-3yr)
Aji (Horse Mackerel) – "maaji"
Awabi (Abalone) – "kuroawabi" high price, "mushiawabi" simmered, "wata" intestines, until autumn
Anago (Sea Eel) – June and rainy season, "tsume" sauce, half as fatty as unagi
Ika (Big Fin Squid) – "aoriika" most popular but also "sumiika" thick and chewy "yariika" spring "hotaruika", "geso" tentacles
Kurumaebi (Prawn) – 20cm long, "odori" prepares raw, age variations "saimaki" "maki" "kurumaebi" "ogurama"
Tako (Octopus) – 2-3kg, "madako" from Akashi, "yudedako" boiled in coarse tea, "namadako" raw, massaging, until autumn
Katsuo (Bonito) – "returning", fatty, twice as big, hay-grilled
Hirame (Marbled Sole) – mature taste, "kanbirame" caught in mid winter, from Aomori
Kohada (Gizzard Shad) – salted and vinegared, 2nd stage of its age (shinko – spring and young; kohada; nakazumi; konoshiro)
Saba (Mackerel) – "shime-saba" prepared marinated, "sekisaba" in winter from Oita
Ikura (Salmon Roe) – thinner membrane in early season
Tai (Sea Bream) – high status, "matsukawa-zukuri" served with blanched skin, fat between skin and meat
Sayori (Half Beak) – "wazukuri" prepared with whole fish, until spring
Shirauo (Glassfish) – transparent, bay but swim upriver in spring
Uni (Sea Urchin) – white and red kinds, short or long spikes, "murasakiuni" "bafununi" "ezobafununi" from Hokkaido, "akauni" from western Japan, until summer
Aoyagi (Orange Clam) – "bakagai" parboiled, "kobashira the eye, "oboshi" big kobashira and "koboshi" small kobashira, shell similar to Hamaguri, until spring
Akagai (Bloody Clam) – "himo" mantle, until spring
Hamaguri (Hard Clam) – "sakamushi" steamed with sake, "nitsume" concentrated soy mirin infusion
Hotategai (Scallop)
Hokkigai (Surf Clam) – "ubagai" real name but "hokki" because of Hokkaido, greyish brown when raw and peachy red when cooked, until spring
Mirugai (Giant Clam) – "miru" seaweed growing on the shell, golden brown meat
Read more about Tsukiji Market if you want..
Tuna / Honmaguro
Maguro (Tuna) – over 3m, Oma coast in Aomori, highly priced, taste maturing in winter
Apart from Japan, tuna from Spain is also highly sought after. You can also find – yep get ya boat out! – tuna in Portugal, Greece, Croatia and Ireland. I'm not sure which route they swim just yet.. -__-"
These are the common categorization..
Akami (lean – near spine)
Chutoro (half fatty – near skin)
Otoro (fatty – belly)
You will also get the "half-half" kind of cut, such as Chu-o-toro and the Chu-toro that is close
to the Akami.
Akami (lead, red meat) can taste quite bloody, depending how close to the blood vessel (the inner part closed to spine) that cut of Akami is. Some people prefer bloody taste; some don't. One of the means to dilute the blood taste of the Akami part is "Zuke" (marinated/pickled in soy sauce). The Akami that is close to the tail is leaner and slightly paler.
To make things more complicated…
A tuna fish is generally divided into 3 parts, from head to tail.
Kami (near the head)
Naka (middle part)
Shimo (near the tail)
Se (back part)
Hara (belly part)
Both Se-toro and O-toro are fatty but Se-toro (found in the back part) is less fatty than O-toro. Also the O-toro that is close to the head (Kami) is fattier than the O-toro that is close to the tail (Shimo). The reputedly *best* part of O-toro is called Hara Kami Ichi Ban, which is the belly closer to the head. One of the rarest and fattiest parts of tuna and the oiliest is Kama-toro or tuna collar. It is also the most expensive.
The fattiest doesn't necessarily mean the tastiest (in my opinion). Some very fatty cuts don't have the complexity of blood taste. And the means to make the fat taste more complex is to sear it with charcoal (or blow torch). This method is called "Aburi".
There is also a kind of sushi that combines the lean red meat with scraping of fat directly under the skin. (Generally cheaper than the fatty bits). This is called Maguro Kawagishi (red meat with oil under skin). It's usually served as a Gunkan-maki. This only works with native tuna. The fat under the skin of farmed tuna is reportedly smelly.
Tuna belly generally contains a lot of sinews. Often they are unpleasant. There comes the ageing process to soften the sinews and enhance the taste of tuna is called "jyukusei" ("jyuku" reaching the peak; "sei" to become).
The bone marrow of tuna is also edible.
This interest of mine in tuna took me to a sushi restaurant called Irifune.
(Special thanks to this guy for some lecture on tuna).
Irifune for tuna?
Irifune is a no-star sushi-ya in Tokyo's suburban area of Okusawa. The itamae is known for buying the *best* of tuna (honmaguro) from Tsukiji Market.
Personally I think it is a good restaurant but it's not life-changing. The care that goes into fine-tuning temperature, etc. is missing. The rice makes no impact. Quite glue-y and lacking in movement. It is also not true that if you go you'd necessarily experience (and learn by tasting) many obscure cuts of tuna. You need to be able to tell the difference and to order it by kind. (I chanced into a kama-toro (tuna collar) because I could identify it by look rather than being given).
The best way to eat a lot of tuna at Irifune, in my opinion, is to get the tuna donburi, rather than having an "omakase" sushi set. In your donburi, you'll be served o-toro from various parts of tuna, chu-toro, maguro and aburi-toro.

Home > ESR > Vol. 6 (1994) > Iss. 1
Twenty years later, the question of the impact of the oil shock on the economy remains controversial. Mainstream economic analysis, carried out in sectoral studies or formal macroeconomic models, most often leads to the conclusion that the impacts were very substantial in terms of a slowing down in growth or productivity gains. But in a larger perspective, drawing upon analysis of the world economy over the long term, the judgement is qualified. In short, it appears that a "long-wave" analysis, inspired by the work of neo-Schumpeterian economists, allows one to see more clearly how the world economy and the international energy system fit together within a dynamic framework. Within this perspective one can approach the question of whether there will be additional oil shocks in the future.

LUBBOCK, TX (KCBD) – Did you know the City of Lubbock charges you for property tax on your tap water? It's the same for garbage collection, stormwater, sewer, and electricity. The city will charge itself more than $5.4 million in property taxes in the coming year, up from $2.9 million in the current fiscal year. But of course, City Hall does not pay that tax bill. You do.
Lubbock Power & Light was allowed an exemption from PILOT or payment in lieu of taxes ever since its financial meltdown in 2003. But starting in the 2010/2011 fiscal year, LP&L will pay more than $1.4 million in property taxes.
Comparing Lubbock To Other Cities
KCBD NewsChannel 11 called other West Texas cities. Every city we successfully contacted charges a franchise fee. However PILOT is less common. "We do not have any PILOT programs," says a spokesperson for the city of Midland. No payment of in lieu of taxes? "No, sir" she says.
Plainview had a similar answer saying it has a franchise fee for services like water & sewer but not PILOT.
"We do not charge a property tax," says a spokesperson for Amarillo. But Amarillo was quick to point out it charges an administrative fee against its own departments such was water and sewer. The fee covers the cost of accounting, use of the H.R. department and other costs.
Likewise Lubbock also charges an administrative fee or "indirect cost," which totals about $2.3 for water, sewer, stormwater, garbage, and LP&L.
Odessa does charge PILOT against the estimated value of its own water lines, sewer lines, etc. "That's no different than what any private company would pay," says a spokesman for Odessa.
Add Franchise Fees To Those Taxes
In addition to charging itself property taxes, Lubbock's franchise fees for water, sewer, storm water, garbage collection and LP&L are $11.7 million. That number does not include franchise fees paid to Lubbock by Suddenlink, Atmos Energy and other private companies.
If the city of Lubbock were to refund the PILOT, and franchise fees paid by its own departments, the amount of money would be (based upon the number of water meters in Lubbock) enough to refund more than $217 per year to every business and household in Lubbock.
Mayor Agrees With PILOT Practice
Don't hold your breath on that refund. Mayor Tom Martin says, "It's a long standing thing we've been doing in Lubbock going back at least 30 years."
"Utilities could be privately owned," Martin continues. "And if they were private operations they would be paying property taxes." Martin says that years ago the justification for PILOT went something like this; "It puts public utilities on the same playing field as private enterprises."
"I agree with giving non-home owners [renters] a chance to pay their share of government and not placing the entire burden on the home owner's property tax bill."
Martin goes on to say that landlords cannot always fully recover the cost of property taxes from rent payments. "We have a city where in previous years the numbers showed between 40 and 50 percent of the housing came from rental units."

Do right and wrong exist?
I'm curious about objective right and wrong. If you believe in God, this is a no-brainer. Some things are wrong, some things are right, simply because God says so and He knows. But if you don't believe in God, can you still believe in objective morality? I personally don't think you can. I mean, what do you base it off of? How do you find out what's objectively right or wrong? (By objective I mean "existing independent of thought or an observer as part of reality." from dictionary.com)
Sure, there's subjective morality. Any idea of right or wrong come up with by a human is by definition subjective. That's all well and good. Problem is that it only applies to people who believe in it and it gives them no authority to proclaim anything as "what we should be doing." Very often everybody disagrees with each other and we don't get anywhere. (Just look at Congress for an example of this.)
Maybe you disagree with me and you think there is objective morality but no God. That's fine. I would like to ask you to answer a question for me though. Let's pick an easy one. Why is rape objectively wrong? Don't misunderstand me, I can't think of a single instance where rape wouldn't be wrong. I believe very strongly that sexual abuse is one of the greatest evils in the world. Why is it evil? If you can answer me without using a God-based or subjective argument, I'll concede the point.
That point is this: Without God, there is no such thing as right and wrong, only the things we call right and wrong. And since nobody can agree on what to call what, we're all in a lot of trouble.

Mar 3 2013: This is based on the opinion that if God exists there would be an objective morality from which to abide by. This alone is a subjective statement that Deism argues against. While it is true that morality takes a subjective stance, it is constantly reinforced by both the law and social factors. This also means that culture plays a large part in morality, as there is no single defining factor that is not subject to change over time. For instance using your question rape is seen by (western) society as wrong, because it violates human rights meaning it also go's against the law, therefore, making it morally wrong. While this morality is subject to change, so is the bibles interpretation of morality as well, as seen in the crusades, stoning, subjugation of minorities, beating of woman, and rape have all been seen as morality right in one time or another in the eyes of several religions. This brings the conclusion that was is 'right' and what is 'wrong' changes through-out time whether there is a belief in God or not.

At the present time, Professor Buss is devoting all of his scholarly work to researching and writing about the American influence on the Australian Constitution. He thinks it is important for Americans and Australians to know how deep and wide that influence was on the Australians who wrote their Constitution and how much similarity there is now between the two constitutions.
Prior to joining the law faculty in 1967, Professor Buss clerked for Judge Bailey Aldrich on the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, practiced law with Foley, Hoag & Eliot in Boston, and served as Lecturer on Education and Assistant to the Dean of the Harvard Graduate School of Education. Since coming to Iowa, Professor Buss has specialized in the field of constitutional law, especially including comparative constitutional law and constitutional law related to public education. His scholarly writing has included articles on the constitutional rights of students, special education in the United States and in England and Wales, and freedom of speech in the United States and Australia. He has taught comparative public and constitutional law at Durham University in England, and at Victoria University in New Zealand. Professor Buss's current scholarship concerns the American influence on the making and interpretation of the Australian Constitution.

An excellent international resource for the laboratory equipment industry.
System Could Harness Power to Explore Sea from SeaExploring the deep oceans presents huge technical challenges, many of which could be overcome if there were some cheap and efficient way to deliver power to machines while at depth. To tackle this problem, a collaborative research team including Ryuhei Nakamura from the RIKEN Center for Sustainable Resource Science has now demonstrated a remarkable system that uses natural hydrothermal vents on the sea floor to generate electricity.Nakamura and colleagues at the Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology (JAMSTEC) and the Univ. of Tokyo developed a robust robotic system that essentially works like a household battery. Hydrothermal fluid from deep-sea vents is enriched with reduced or electron-rich ions, while seawater contains oxidized or electron-depleted ions. By placing one electrode in the hydrothermal fluid and another in the seawater nearby, the system creates a chemical gradient that produces an electric current.Read more: http://www.laboratoryequipment.com/news/2013/10/system-could-harness-power-explore-sea-sea

Renegade Farmer, Most misleading game name of the year, not!
Apr 15 2012, 02:28 PM
Post #1
Type: Designer
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Renegade Farmer is a project which was blindly named but then had it's storyline recreated to fit it's name.
So I'll just get straight into it;
Story Synopsis:
John wakes up on river harrod. He's saved by cass and her best friend (Gary), and then is nursed back to health. He learns basic farming from the Gary. He tends to a farm for a while, until Eden comes back and buys Satia due to death threats.
Several months later, Satia has become basically a slave camp. Eden, using robots, has dug into the caverns below Satia. The majority of Satia citizens are forced to become miners, they are mining for precious metals believed to lay below Satia. The rest of Satia is being heavily farmed for food and goods. After a while, John meets up with an Eden miner named Guy. Guy says that he hates Eden corp, and wants to overthrow them. He knows of a way to destroy the hatred in the Boss's heart: Crystaline essence, which is farmed from pure happiness. Guy and Gary decide to create a secret tunnel that will lead away from the perimeter of Satia, but they have to mine at night, so the guards won't notice.
Everything goes according to plan for a while, until Guy and Gary mess up one night (they're caught heading into the mine at night), causing the guards to become suspicious. Guards are then planted inside the mine at night. John comes up with a plan. On the night of a nearby holiday, John plans to cause a stampede of animals inside the caves, as well as in the town itself. Guy and Gary plan to steal a mining robot during the stampede. John also needs to sneak into the storage warehouse the night before the holiday, seeing as a large shipment of fireworks will be delivered that day.
After several days of acting normal, the holiday finally arrives. John releases the cows, and sets off the fireworks, causing the cows to stamped in several directions. John, using a tractor, then steers some of the stampeding cows into the mine. The cows trample some of the guards, and cause the others to give chase. Guy and Gary then get to work, and manage to finish the tunnel by the time the night ends (John heads back home to make sure nobody gets suspicious. Also, the tunnel is covered up by a large grey blanket that looks like a rock wall).
A week later, John manages to escape through the cave, along with several rebellious farmers and a few crops (during week leading up to his escape, John gathered the crops and recruited the farmers). John heads to the western forest, and manages to set up a farm in a clearing. The farm begins to prosper, and it also grows steadily due to the large amount of lumber. During one night, Guy and Cass visit John, and they tell him that the guards have been searching all over the town for him, and they'll soon start searching outside Satia. Guy says that John needs to start making aquamarine essence immediately. Guy heads back to the town, and John tries his hardest to make his animals happy. Cass decides to stay with John, seeing as the guards have been pestering her. Two weeks later, Guy returns with grave news, the miners became impatient and started a violent rebellion against Eden Corp. Guy says that the miners are planning on flooding the mines. What the miners don't realize, is that if the mines are flooded, the now very small foundation under Satia will become weak, causing Satia to collapse into the earth. If John does not harvest the essence in time, there won't be a Satia left.
Some time later (maybe three-four weeks, depending on the player's farming skills), John finally harvests a small bit of the essence. Deciding that he doesn't have much time, John heads back through the tunnel and back into Satia (at nighttime). After avoiding the guards, John arrives at the miner barracks. He enters the barracks, only to find that they are totally deserted. John heads back outside, and is stopped by Guy. Guy says that the majority of the miners snuck back into the mines, and they are planning on flooding the mines in the morning. Guy also says that Gary has lost his mind to revenge, and is leading a diversion attack on the Eden HQ. John now has to make a choice on how to use the essence.
Ending 1 (if John chooses to use the essence on the Boss):
John heads to the HQ, where he is stopped by Gary. John says that he needs the miners to attract as many guards as possible, so that he can sneak into the HQ and give the essence to the Boss. Gary agrees, and gives the attack order. Suddenly, a small militia of miners charges at the door, taking cover behind various things. The miners that have weapons open fire on the building, blowing out several windows. Guards begin to pour out of the building, and the battle begins. While this is happening, John sneaks into the HQ and works his way into the Boss' office. There he finds the Boss. The Boss calls on several guards, who come and seize John, who tries to reason with the Boss, and tries to tell him about the miners flooding the mine. Unfortunately, the Boss doesn't want to listen, and orders the guards to take John away and execute him. Suddenly, out of nowhere, the building starts shaking as if it were in an earthquake. The floor gives way under the guards, causing them to fall away from John. John then lunges at the Boss, and applies the essence to him. The boss immediately becomes remorseful and apologizes to John. John and the Boss then escape the crumbling building, only to find that Satia is collapsing into an underground lake, a lake that used to be the mines. Several miners, including Gary, charge John and the Boss, trying to take the Boss down, but the ground collapses underneath them, causing them to be swept away in the current. John and the Boss manage to escape the crumbling city, thanks to Guy (who saved them with a pickup truck).
John, the Boss, and Guy all arrive at John's farm, where Cass, the mayor, and several citizens and farmers are waiting for them. They all agree that is was best to let Satia crumble. That way, there would be nothing left to fight over, and now they could start anew.
Ending 2 (if John chooses to use the essence on Gary):
John heads to the HQ, where he is stopped by several miners (who are armed with makeshift weapons). The miners ask where John is headed, and he says that he needs to tell Gary to stop, else Satia will be destroyed. The miners don't allow John to pass, and begin to attack him. Guy saves John by hitting the miners with a pickup truck (Guy sure loves them pickup trucks, doesn't he?). John then begins to sneak his way around the makeshift fortifications outside the Eden HQ. He eventually finds Gary, who is happy to see him, until John tells him that he needs to call off the attack. Gary decides that John is a threat, so he has two miners escort him away from the HQ. Guy suddenly appears again, and rams one of the fortifications (a small wall of hay bales). The bales fall onto several people, including Gary. John quickly applies the essence to the trapped Gary, who then realizes what he is doing is wrong. Gary tries to call off the flooding, but the miners say that the makeshift bomb already been lit. John jumps into the truck with Guy, and they both rush to the bomb site in the mine. When they reach the bomb, the timer has only 45 seconds left. Neither of the men can defuse the bomb, mainly cause the miners rigged it to be impossible to defuse. The bomb is also so powerful that wherever it blows up, it will still collapse a small bit of Satia. Guy decides that he will take a bullet for Satia. He radios Gary and tells him to fall back. Guy then loads the bomb onto the truck (25 seconds left) and floors it. He drives to the tunnel that they built, hoping that the straight tunnel will take him and the bomb far away from both Satia and John's farm. The bomb then explodes while Guy is inside the tunnel, causing it to collapse. John and Gary both rush out of the town, hoping to find Guy. They find Guy, a ruined truck and a large crater,Guy was alive but badly hurt. John and Gary hurry over to Cassandra and she gets him in bed immediately and starts tending to him.
Later, John, Gary, and the rest of the gang, stand outside the Eden HQ. The Boss finally agreed to meet with them, after seeing the destruction that they're capable of. The citizens of Satia and Eden decide to split Satia halfway, and all of the citizens are freed from being miners (except for those who like mining, in which case they become Eden Employees). Satia then
World Info:
Diamond Beach: On the eastern side of Satia resides the Beautiful Diamond Beach. The beach stretches for miles north and south, passing the borders of Satia on either side, and the harrod river flows along the shore. The beach got it's name from it's sparkling sand. Research has shown that the sparkling is caused by tiny flakes of gemstones (mainly diamond). As to where the flakes came from, nobody can say.
Satia town: The town of satia is not very large, seeing as the majority of satia is taken up by farmland. The majority of the buildings are as old as the town itself, and a few wooden buildings have fallen to disrepair (due to a current lack of money), although they are still being used frequently. A large wall, built to fortify the town during the great war, protects the town from the western side. Seeing as Satia is a friendly place, and the residents enjoy newcomers, the wall has not been locked down in years.
Satia Plains: To the south of Satia town lies the plains. These plains a filled with nutrient rich soil, and they are perfect for any form of crop. The majority of the plains are covered with crops, but several miles of open ground surround the crop fields.
Western Forest: To the west of the town, a few miles past the open fields, stands the grand western forest. Most of this forest is untamed, making it a dangerous place to travel alone. A large road was cut straight through the forest, allowing farming shipments to come and go, but the road is scarcely traveled otherwise.
Character Bios:
Age: 20
Personality: John can best be described as loyal and hardworking. He is also a people person, seeing as he easily becomes liked by most of the town. Deep inside, somewhere in his subconscious, John is emotionally scarred… although nobody, not even John, knows why.
Occupation: Farmer of Satia
Background: Not much is known of John's background, seeing as he woke up as an amnesiac. He apparently has a deep connection with Eden Corp, and Eden Corp has a deep resentment for him.
Goal(s): To save Satia from the evil Eden Corp.
Cassandra Yemmin
Age: 19
Personality: Cassandra is very caring for people of all ages, shapes, and sizes. She seems to be drawn to John, due to his winning personality and his work ethic. She is a very empathetic person, and she selflessly cares for any weary traveler, no matter who they are.
Occupation: Cassandra doesn't have an occupation, other than tending to weary travelers who are in need of hospitality.
Background: Cassandra was born and raised in Satia. While her father has always been there, Cassandra never knew her mother. Her mother apparently passed away from malaria when Cass was young.
Goal(s): Cassandra wants to keep Satia, and her people, as happy and healthy as possible. No matter what the cost.
Fredrick Yemmin
Age: 52
Personality: Fredrick is a kind and caring man, who holds a deep love for Satia and her people. He would willingly give his life in order to save satia, if such a sacrifice was needed.
Occupation: Mayor of Satia
Background: Fredrick is the 16th mayor of Satia. His grandfather was the mayor of Satia when Eden made it's first offer. Fredrick's grandfather always told his grandson that one day he would be mayor, and he would lead the people of Satia into great and horrible times. Because of this assumption, Fredrick spent most of his teen years studying under his grandfather, until his grandfather passed away. Fredrick promised his dying grandfather that Satia would never be taken by those unworthy of it's glory.
Goal(s): Fredricks life goal is to keep Satia safe from those who would harm it, all while running the town himself.
Gary Markwell
Age: 22
Personality: Gary, while a very kind man, can be quite rash. He holds a deep love for Satia and the Yemmins (seeing as his family was redeemed by the town and the mayor), and he will do whatever it takes to protect Satia, no matter how suicidal his plan may be.
Occupation: Gary is a local lumberjack that helped build many important buildings in Satia (such as the church)
Background: Gary and his family came to Satia shortly after Fredrick became mayor. Gary's family was running from a large criminal organization (like the mafia) who was trying to kill Gary's father (due to his loose tongue). Fredrick gladly accepted the family, giving them shelter in the town. When the organization arrived, Fredrick himself met with the leader, and they eventually made a trading deal. Fredrick gave the organization $500,000, and the criminals left the town in peace. Stunned by the fact that the mayor gave away half of his own money, just for their lives, the Markwell family pledged eternal allegiance to the town of Satia. Several years after, Gary's father vanished without a trace, and he was soon followed by his mother. Gary figured they decided to go back to their life of crime, which filled him with rage. If Cassandra had not been there for Gary, he would have most likely hurt someone. Ever since, Gary and Cassandra have been fond friends.
Goal(s): To protect Satia and the Yemmins from any form of harm.
Boss (Pat Leonard)
Age: 36
Personality: Pat is very controlling of everything. He rarely listens to reason, especially when he's angry.
Background: Pat seems to hold a very deep love for his father. When the mayor of satia refused to sell the town, Pat could tell that his father was very hurt. Pat's father truly wanted to help people with satia, but he wanted to mine under the town in order to gain materials that could arm the innocent citizens in the great war, all while supplying the troops and citizens with food. Of course, even though the war ended, Pat still wanted to fulfill his fathers legacy. Unfortunately, Pat misunderstood his father's motives, and decided to instill a slave-like system on Satia, so he could punish the town, all while still getting what his father wanted.
Goal(s): To control Satia and fulfill his father's wish.

"My favorite movie of all time is House On Haunted Hill (the original) because, it was way ahead of it's time and it was the first horror movie to scare me"
"The remake of House on Haunted Hill is far superior to the original. We all love the '59 version, but it gets pretty goofy and isn't scary at all. And I hate to say it, but Geoffrey Rush nearly matched Vincent Price in terms of acting. Seriously: rewatch it."
"Vincent Price will always be the best horror movie actor and House on Haunted Hill (original) will always be my favorite horror movie."
"The house on haunted hill remake still creeps me out."
"I would marry Vincent Price's character in House on Haunted Hill."
"Every morning I do my daily routine of getting ready to Sorry Tulip from The House On Haunted Hill soundtrack (1999) it makes me feel sophisticated and dangerous."
"The House on Haunted Hill remake had scary visuals throughout the whole movie. I commend it on how scary those mental pictures were."
"I know it is regarded as a horrible movie and remake, but I think House on Haunted Hill (1999) is legitimately frightening. I actually don't mind the cheesy dialogue since it allows me to catch my breath."
"When I was a little girl, about 4 years old, my mom used to take me to the library every week, where they used to rent out VHS tapes. One week I asked my mom if we could get a scary movie. We rented House on Haunted Hill with Vincent Price. Every week after that, we would rent a new scary movie and watch it together: Psycho, The Birds, The Bad Seed, Whatever Happened to Baby Jane, the list goes on. I can singlehandedly thank my mother for introducing me to what horror is all about."
"Every time I watch House on Haunted Hill (1999) I always want to own and operate a theme park like Price's."
"Even though it's not that scary, the original House on Haunted Hill will always be my favorite Horror movie."
"That scene in house on haunted hill where vincent price pulls his wifes hair turns me on farrrrrrrr too much"
"I liked the remake of House on Haunted Hill, and I don't care what anyone says."
"I sincerely believe that the remake of House On Haunted Hill (yes it IS a remake idgaf if they changed the names, the premise is the same) is an embarrassment to the original."
"The First Horror Film I Ever Saw Was The House On Haunted Hill Remake. I Was 8 And The Scene Where The Doctor Shows Up On The Camera And Spazzes Out Made Me Cry And Pee My Self. And Still Freaks Me Out To This Day"
