here is another wallpaper (or whatever they are). there are two more but i'm going to put them on hold until i've got other things out of the way.
again, it's 4:3 standard size - 1600 x 1200 pixels.
i'll make widescreen or dual screen if there is a request to do so.
widescreen version now here.
'binary' - more traditional/minimal wallpapers now added.
widescreen versions are 1900 x 1200 (not the usual 1680 x 1050).
just realised i got the widescreen ratio wrong - should have been 1920 not 1900. corrected wallpapers uploaded.

CNN canceled its March 1 Republican presidential debate on Thursday after three of four candidates declined to participate, citing busy campaign schedules leading to Super Tuesday on March 6.
"Mitt Romney and Ron Paul told the Georgia Republican Party, Ohio Republican Party, and CNN Thursday that they will not participate in the March 1 Republican presidential primary debate," CNN said in a statement. "Without full participation of all four candidates, CNN will not move forward with the Super Tuesday debate."
Former U.S. Sen. Rick Santorum also said he would not participate, leaving only former House Speaker Newt Gingrich committed to attending.
Still scheduled is a Feb. 22 debate sponsored by CNN and the Arizona Republican Party in Mesa, Ariz. It will be moderated by CNN's John King.
From National Journal:
PICTURES Pet Moments Presidents Live to Regret
CAMPAIGN 2012 How Would Santorum's Culture War Play in the Fall?
Andrea Saul, a spokeswoman for former Massachusetts Gov. Romney, said, "With eight other states voting on March 6, we will be campaigning in other parts of the country and unable to schedule the CNN Georgia debate. We have participated in 20 debates, including eight from CNN."
Santorum "has no plans of doing it right now," spokesman Hogan Gidley said of the March 1 debate.
Gingrich, whose home state is Georgia, had planned to take part. "The Romney model is to go to Wall Street and raise huge amounts of money to run negative ads," he said. "And you can understand why having to defend that strategy is probably not something he's very happy with."
Correction: An earlier version of this story erroneously referred to a March 5 debate.
Lindsey Boerma, Ethan Klapper and Sarah Huisenga contributed contributed to this article.

Players Map - September
Communication - What does it mean to communicate?
This month we are going to talk about communication - specifically nonverbal communication and body language.
The way you look and act and react can tell a lot to somebody – even if you didn't mean to convey what your are conveying. So what is body language? What does it say and how does it say it? And most importantly…what can you do about it?
Here is a PowerPoint that I put together to get you to learn about and think about your body language – what it is and how to make the most of it to be a great player. Check it out. Or if you like simply click through some of these articles to get you to examine professional athletes body language and what it may mean,
- Communication - Body Language PowerPoint
- In this article Tom Brady (NFL quarterback) talks about a poor game he has had and his body language in that game. What is he saying? What is he saying about himself…especially around some of the younger players?
- This is an awesome article about the US vs Mexico Worlc Cup qualifying game in September 2013. The article mentions the fact that Mexico had lost its past 3 qualifying games 2-0 in Columbus (where this game took place). It was shaping up to be one of those nights again and the USA sensed it. What is the article saying about body language? Is it true? Does it matter if its true…or just that the Americans sensed it to be true…which can feed their belief?
- This final article is about Wayne Rooney and his recent transfer saga in which many teams were trying to buy him form Manchester Unite. The rumor was that Wayne wanted out of Manchester...and his body language in games showed it. What is the article saying about his body language? Is it true?...Again, does it matter if its true?...or does it say something to his teammates either way?

A big congratulations from the Kubuntu team to Debian on their release of lenny. And at the same time, a big thanks to the Debian KDE Team for their great work and collaboration.
"Every Debian developer is also an Ubuntu developer, because one way to contribute to Ubuntu is to contribute to Debian." — Mark Shuttleworth
The Kubuntu team is proud to announce the release of Kubuntu 8.04.2, the second and final maintenance update to Kubuntu's 8.04 release. This release includes updated desktop, and alternate installation CDs for the i386 and amd64 architectures. This update is provided in recognition that the current Kubuntu release (8.10) with its cutting edge KDE 4 desktop is not yet appropriate for all users.
In all, over 200 updates have been integrated, and updated installation media has been provided so that fewer updates will need to be downloaded after installation. These include security updates, and corrections for other high-impact bugs, with a focus on maintaining stability and compatibility with Kubuntu 8.04.

My wife and I are considering purchasing a new house, but the surveyor says that it has wall tie failure. What is the best solution for repairing this? Is it really necessary to get the old ties out again?
Take the 2-minute tour ×
Home Improvement Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for contractors and serious DIYers. It's 100% free, no registration required.
Let me first say, being originally from the UK my understanding of "wall tie" might be different from your particularly definition/situation.
"The wall is brick on the outside and block on the inside" that to me describes Cavity Wall construction ie the outer and inner leaves of brickwork/blockwork are tied together with wall ties, normally spaced at 450mm centres vertically & 900mm centres horizontally (spaced differently at openings).
How does the surveyor know the wall ties are failing?
Are the walls bowing in or out or are the walls cracking?
See if this helps, How to Replace Wall Ties
If the above link does not help &/or I have got the wrong end of the "wall tie" stick, please post back with any additional information you may have.

Two oval patches of 25 mm x 35 mm are for wider cuts. A tube of self-vulcanizing fluid bonds the patch to the tube at the molecular level. Each kit is packaged in a small plastic box with sandpaper for cleaning the tube and instructions.

Great patch kit
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Have had to use this on more than a couple occasions. Works as described and would recommend.
Ben Cook
Great Repair kit.
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
For less than the price of a tube you can fix a tube several times. This creates a way better/more permanent fix than the Sticker type patch kits. A bit more fuss but worth it in my opinion.
Kyle Br
gotta have item
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
you have to have one of these in your pocket or saddle bag along with your tube, super easy to use and will save you in a pinch.
Robert Smallman
These work great
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
I started patching my tubes when i moved out here to Utah. These work as well as any i've ever used.
James Robbins
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Always keep it riding pack. Seals up holes with ease so you can keep rocking those tubes. I have had the glue dry up before I was able to use all the patches. Isn't a good time to find out that your glue has dried up when you are out on the trail with a flat tire.
multi useful
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
works great on flat bike tubes. also sucessfully repaired a leaking Camelbak bladder with it.

When Flats Strike
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Be prepared to conquer them! Make sure each one of your packs has one... Camelbak, check! Commuter tool roll, check! Heck, keep one in your tool box too. Nothin' too fancy about them, they do what they were intended to do!
A must have
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
Plain and simple - all peeps need this - and if not for you, I am the chosen one on rides for flat repairs :)
Gianni Versace
Don't toss that tube!
- Gender: Male
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
This kit works better than any other patch kit I've used to date. Easy to use and it saves me from needing to purchase expensive $8 to $16. Thanks again Park Tool
Trevor J
Save the Tubes!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Great patch kit for saving some tubes. When tubes costs $7-$15 a pop, a little patch kit like this can go a long way for you. Easy to patch and has helped up great for the tubes I've repaired. Fluid will not last forever.
skinny cyclist
fluid tube doesn't last long once opened
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Patches work fine but the fluid tube rapidly dries out once it's opened....had to find out the hard way when I flatted in the middle of nowhere only to find out my patch kit wasn't really a patch kit any longer.
Ben C
the best patches
- Familiarity: I've put it through the wringer
For whatever reason these patches last much longer than the cheap chinese ones you can get worldwide. Fluid still doesn't last forever, but I haven't found a fluid that does.
I've used two patches.
In the picture I have two less patches that I used. Great to have in your pack when on the trail. Small enough to fit in a small pocket.
Chad Cordell
Easy Repair
These are great patches that bond extremely well to your tube. No need to toss your tube after a puncture, just patch it and get back out there.

It's that time of year again, and no we're not talking about Valentine's Day (although the coincidence is quite divine). Enter the VMAN Ford Model Search, advertised in the upcoming issue #21 of VMAN, a competition where the magazine and Ford Models team up to find the next male superstar. Not only does the winner get to be photographed by iconic shutterbug Steven Klein for the cover of VMAN, he also gets a major leg up in the cutthroat male modeling world, as evidenced by past finalists and winners. Indeed, many former entrants are alive and thriving in the biz, and we've put together a little slideshow to show you the highlights of previous VMAN searches. And, hey, if you're interested in papering our wall, the contest is now live here until March 1st. Better hit the gym in 5-4-3-2-1...

Should students be allowed to hand out religious items in public schools?
In Plano, Texas, they couldn't. Yet their parents are trying to sue the educators who stopped the kids. According to the AP, "A Dallas-area religious group has appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court a ruling that gives legal immunity to educators who stopped students from handing out religious items in schools.

Warmack is a can't miss All-Pro.....As long as we address the holes on this team....I'd have no problem adding him.
They ran behind him all game last night.
Warmack is a can't miss All-Pro.....As long as we address the holes on this team....I'd have no problem adding him.
They ran behind him all game last night.
Jay Fiedler can take his'n and lose to your'n.....or take your'n and lose to his'n.
Please, don't even try that....a guard at 12? Even Ireland can't be that stupid. Even John Hannah and Hutchinson were NOT drafted that high. Do people on this board ever learn anything? We took a LT #1 and a center at 15 and now you want a guard at 12?......Yeah, maybe Tannehill can complete passes to Pouncy and this damn guard.
Ozzy rules!!
Yeah, I have to agree. Picking him there at 12 is just too much to swallow, considering the positions that will appear available. I'm all about BPA, but starting the BPA argument with "Warmack is a top 5 prospect!" as some sort of clear cut fact is just dishonest.
Jonathan Cooper is a better fit for what we're trying to do. Warmack would be pretty awesome in San Fran or Baltimore.
He's most likely our first round pick, so I guess we should get used to the idea.
No. Decastro worked so well for Pittsburgh after being a first round pick. The positional value just isn't there
He is a great player but not sure he fits best in the zone blocking the fins want to use. We need a big playmaker at #12 i.e. WR, DE, CB or TE if one grades out that high.
If he fits what Fins look for... why not.
However... id perfer to go DE with the first selection... with CB perhaps being a close second.
lets get a guard in round 3

When changing your aperture to defocus the background, the light sources appear blurred. This 'bokeh' effect of the blurred background can be enhanced with circular aperture blades used in this lens. Conventional aperture blades have flat sides creating unappealing polygonal shaped defocussed points of light. α lenses overcome this problem through a unique design that keeps the aperture almost perfectly circular from its wide-open setting to when it is closed by 2 stops. Smoother, more natural defocusing can be obtained as a result.
The distance encoder plays an integral part in ADI flash metering, which delivers high precision flash metering that is unaffected by the reflectance of subjects or backgrounds. The distance encoder is a lens component that directly detects the position of the focusing mechanism, and sends a signal to the CPU in order to measure distance to the subject. During flash photography, this data is very useful in calculating how much flash output is appropriate to the scene.
Rather than using the focus drive motor in the camera body, SAM lenses feature an autofocus motor built into to the lens itself that directly drives the focusing element group. Since the built-in motor directly rotates the focus mechanism, operation is significantly smoother and quieter than conventional coupled autofocus drive systems.

ESPN suspended reporter Britt McHenry for a week after a video of her berating a towing company employee surfaced Thursday. On the roughly one-minute long video that was captured by a surveillance camera, McHenry says to an employee at a register: "I'm in the news, sweetheart. I will (expletive) sue this place." The employee tells McHenry she's being recorded, but it doesn't stop her from continuing her rant. Here are some other celebrities who have fallen from grace.
Stephen Collins, the actor who played the pastor Eric Camden on the hit show "7th Heaven," is being investigated by police after allegedly confessing to child molestation.
Oscar Pistorius: He was charged with murder in the shooting death of his girlfriend, Reeva Steenkamp, earlier in 2013. Pistorius claims he thought she was an intruder, but police said they have responded to previous domestic violence reports at their home.
Nicknamed the "Blade Runner," Pistorius made history when he became the first Paralympian to compete in the able-bodied Olympics in 2012. In Sept. 2014, he was found guilty of negligent murder.
Lance Armstrong: After years of denials, Lance Armstrong admitted to doping in a recent interview with Oprah Winfrey. The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency accused Armstrong of doping and organizing a drug trafficking ring in June 2012, at which point he was banned from cycling and stripped of all titles he won since August 1998, including his seven Tour de France wins.
Lindsay Lohan: For awhile, the actress seemed to be in a constant cycle of court appearances -- according to a count by CNN, she's been in court 19 times in the last six years. She was charged with four misdemeanors after officers said she crashed a car and resisted arrest in 2012 and was convicted of stealing a $2,500 necklace in 2011. She faces assault charges after allegedly punching a woman in a nightclub in November 2012. In 2010, Lohan was sentenced to jail twice and rehab twice, but her incarcerations were shortened by jail overcrowding.
Baseball stars: Steroids was the self-destructive drug of choice for a number of major league baseball players. Here Sammy Sosa, Mark McGwire, Rafael Palmeiro and Curt Schilling appear together to offer testimony to Congress on steroid use in March 2005. McGwire in 2010 finally admitted using performance-enhancing drugs during his career.
In 2013, no baseball players were admitted to the Hall of Fame for the first time since 1996, which several baseball writers said was largely due to admissions and assumptions that various players had doped. The collective snub raised speculation about whether the steroids scandal meant players like Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Sosa, McGwire and others would ever get into the Hall of Fame.
Charlie Sheen: From call girls and a cocaine overdose to multiple rehab stints and accidentally shooting his former fiancee, trouble has seemingly followed Sheen since the 1990s. His recent run of bad luck started with a 2009 domestic dispute with his third wife that landed him back in rehab and on probation. In February 2011, CBS ultimately booted the actor from "Two and a Half Men" after Sheen lobbed insults at the show's creator and lead writer. He later made headlines again for his expletive-laced rant at a Staples Center security guard.
Anthony Weiner: This fiery New York congressman resigned after tweeting a picture of his boxer-covered genitals to a young woman in 2011. The married congressman initially denied knowing whether the photo was of him, but ultimately admitted to and apologized for the incident.
John Edwards: Edwards was a rising star in the Democratic Party when it was discovered he had a child with a campaign videographer during his 2008 presidential campaign. He and wife Elizabeth Edwards separated after news about the affair broke. They never reconciled, but there were reports Edwards was with his estranged wife when she died of breast cancer in 2010.
Tiger Woods: A car accident in late 2009 brought his marital infidelity to light. Despite a disciplined image, he had been cheating on his wife, and a number of women claimed to be his former mistresses. Woods lost his wife, some sponsors and all the golf tournaments he played in 2010 and in 2011. He then won three tournaments in 2012.
Mark Sanford: Former South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford was a rising star in the Republican Party when he went missing for several days in 2009. He initially claimed he was hiking the Appalachian Trail, but ultimately admitted he was having an affair with a woman in Argentina, who he described as his "soul mate." His wife filed for divorce later that year. Sanford is no longer in office, but has said he plans to run for his old congressional seat, which recently became empty when Rep. Tim Hass was appointed to the Senate. He is also engaged to his one-time mistress.
Mel Gibson: Aside from being arrested on a DUI charge and making anti-Semitic comments to a police officer in July 2006, he went on a rampage threatening former girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva and making racial slurs during taped conversations that surfaced in 2010. His most recent meltdown resulted in a restraining order, a domestic abuse investigation and his agency, William Morris Endeavor, dropping the one-time blockbuster actor.
Britney Spears: She raised eyebrows between 2007-08 when she shaved her head at a local salon, took an umbrella and smashed it against a paparazzo's car window, dated a paparazzo, exposed herself, checked into rehab, lost custody of her kids and locked herself in a bathroom with her children. Spears was also taken to UCLA Medical Center, where she underwent a mental evaluation and suicide watch for 72 hours. Soon after, her parents got a restraining order against her former manager. She is still under a conservatorship with her father and has made a remarkable comeback to the music scene since then.
Miley Cyrus: This teen queen has made plenty of headlines for her overly sexual exploits. In 2008, she appeared in a Vanity Fair photo in which she appeared to be topless (she was wrapped in a bedsheet), and then during a performance at the 2009 Teen Choice Awards, she incited a media uproar after briefly pole dancing. In 2010, video of Cyrus giving director/choreographer Adam Shankman a lap dance hit the Web. In December 2011, after a video hit the Internet showing her taking a bong hit of the natural herb salvia at a party.
Michael Jackson: In the '80s, the King of Pop was on top of the world with hit record after hit record. But in the '90s and until his death, he was dogged by child sex abuse allegations, two failed marriages, drug addition and bankruptcy. Physicians have also speculated that Jackson suffered from body dysmorphic disorder and underwent a series of cosmetic surgeries.
Dave Chappelle: In 2005, Chappelle abruptly walked away from his popular sketch comedy series and turned up in South Africa. In July 2010, a private plane was forced to land after Chappelle was deemed a safety risk after he reportedly refused to fasten his seat belt, made repeated visits to the cockpit and grabbed the pilot's arm.
Michael Vick: In 2007, the NFL star was sentenced to 23 months in prison after pleading guilty that August to a dogfighting conspiracy charge. The former No. 1 draft pick filed for bankruptcy in 2008 and in 2009, the Atlanta Falcons cut ties with him. Vick has since made a comeback -- he's back on the field as a star quarterback with the Philadelphia Eagles and partners with the Humane Society to speak to students about the evils of dog fighting.
Pete Rose: In 2004, former Cincinnati Reds player and manager Pete Rose admitted to betting on baseball games after years of accusations. He had been ruled ineligible for the Hall of Fame in 1989 due to the accusations.
Mariah Carey: In the summer of 2001, Carey made a bizarre appearance on MTV's "TRL," handing out popsicles and launching into a striptease of sorts. Just days later, she left rambling messages on her website that complained of being overworked. She was soon hospitalized for "extreme exhaustion."
Rip Torn: The actor who has starred in hit movies like "Men In Black" is seen here in a booking photo after he was involved in a two-car accident and refused to take a breathalyzer test in 2006. He was also convicted in 2009 in another drunken driving case. In 2010 he was arrested for allegedly breaking into the lobby of a Connecticut bank and entered rehab for alcohol abuse.
MC Hammer: Considered a hip hop innovator, MC Hammer skyrocketed to fame and fortune, but then also famously declared bankruptcy in 1996 and found himself in legal battles, including a fight with Rick James over copyright issues.
Bobby Brown and Whitney Houston: The couple wed in 1992 and their stormy 14-year marriage and run-ins with the law were tabloid fodder for years. His troubles included drugs, late child support payments, a drunk driving conviction and a 2003 accusation that he hit Houston. Drug-use rumors dogged Houston in the 1990s, and she memorably said in an interview that "Crack is whack." In 2012, Brown left Houston's funeral early after getting into a fight over seating with Houston's family.
Lil Wayne: The rapper who got his start as a child artist here arrives for a sentencing hearing in a firearms possession case in New York in February 2010. He was sentenced to eight months in jail.
Wesley Snipes: The popular actor met his downfall after facing an unlikely foe: the taxman. Snipes began serving a three-year sentence in December 2010 for failing to file taxes.
Tonya Harding: Harding was a champion figure skater in the late 80s and early 90s, but she is remembered most for the cover-up of an attack orchestrated by her ex-husband and bodyguard on competitor Nancy Kerrigan in 1994. She ultimately pleaded guilty to charges of conspiracy to hinder prosecution of the attackers, though she has always said she didn't know about the attack beforehand and never wanted to keep Kerrigan from skating. She has had several minor run-ins with the law since then, and has also dabbled in boxing.

What would you do if you, or someone you love, felt that chest discomfort-that "Could this really be a heart attack?" feeling that we all dread. Do you know where you'd go for emergency cardiac care?
Consider this: The Society of Chest Pain Centers has designated The Chest Pain Center at Bridgeport Hospital as Connecticut's first and only accredited chest pain center. Only 41 other chest pain centers in the entire nation have received the Society's accreditation.
In order to gain this prestigious distinction, The Chest Pain Center has demonstrated expertise in these important functions:
Established in 1994, The Chest Pain Center is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year. "This was the first service of its kind in Connecticut dedicated to the rapid diagnosis and treatment of patients with chest pain-whether their pain turns out to be a heart attack or not," explains Michael Werdmann, MD, the hospital's Emergency Department chairman. "The accreditation is not just about what happens in the Emergency Department, where the Chest Pain Center is located, but it's about all aspects of cardiac care at Bridgeport Hospital, from the initial evaluation through the patient's hospital stay and even community education," he adds.
Above all, the goal of The Chest Pain Center staff is to make sure that their patients are surrounded by a culture of quality and safety that will ensure the very best-and swiftest-care.
To sign up for Bridgeport Hospital's Heart Institute Newsletter, please call 888-357-2396.

- people in the U.S. have this name View Wesley Ozouf on Whitepages
Meaning & Origins
From the surname of the founder of the Methodist Church, John Wesley (1703–91), and his brother Charles (1707–88), who was also influential in the movement. Their family must have come originally from one or other of the various places in England called Westley, the 'western wood, clearing, or meadow'. The given name was at first confined to members of the Methodist Church, but is now widely used without reference to its religious connotations.

We are officially past the 2011 holiday season, which was a time to get together with family, friends, and coworkers. Many of these gatherings involved the consumption of alcohol. On nights like Christmas Eve and New Year's Eve, Michigan State Police and county and local patrol officers were on the lookout for drunk drivers. Judging by the number of calls we have received, many people were arrested for drunk driving during the holidays.
We are often asked, "Will I go to jail for drunk driving?" The penalties for an Operating While Intoxicated case depend on whether this is a person's first drunk driving offense, second drunk driving offense within 7 years of the first, or third drunk driving offense in a lifetime. Sentencing also depends on whether the person's blood alcohol level was high enough to be considered a Super Drunk offense.
Hiring a drunk driving defense lawyer is an excellent idea for those people charged with a drunk driving offense. This is because the attorney may not only argue that the charges should be dropped, but they may also argue against the imposition of any jail or prison sentence. At Kronzek & Cronkright, PLLC, we have successfully kept many of our clients who were charged with OWI out of jail.
If you have been charged with drunk or drugged driving, contact an attorney today.

Art Saltsberg joins Bob Chase as sports icon
Bob Chase was recently honored with one of sport's most prestigious honors, the Lester Patrick Award for service to hockey. It is fitting he has finally received his long overdue recognition, but there are others who have also made significant contributions to our community who have not been fully recognized. Such a man is Art Saltsberg. Art has served our community in radio and television for five decades.
On Jan. 25, 1978, Art, then news director of WOWO radio (1190-AM), realized the possibility of a catastrophic blizzard crippling Fort Wayne. Instead of going home and letting others worry about it, he rented a room at the Travel Lodge. When his worst fears were realized, he tunneled his way back to the studio and joined the stranded night crew to provide unequalled around-the-clock coverage until reinforcements could arrive. For Art it was entirely typical, just another three days at the office.
Those of us who follow sports, however, will remember Art as the pioneer of the finest sports talk show the area has ever seen and likely ever will see. While WOWO news director, he founded a twice-weekly call-in sports show in 1977 with Ron Gregory. Later, after leaving WOWO, he reprised the show in Auburn before returning to WOWO in November 1985. He and Dean Pantazi became the gold standard for nightly sports talk and, in the judgment of this writer, created the most entertaining sports show in this area's history.
Art and Dean did it differently. They treated each caller as a welcome guest and refused to belittle them to make themselves look clever or smart as was the custom on most national shows. Their shows were always upbeat, informative and even occasionally spiced with a bit of trivia, in short, always enjoyable.
They worked with a variety of producers and often had to do the legwork themselves despite having full-time careers in other realms. Throughout the history of the program, Sports Talk was must listening for sports fans in the tri-state area. Because of WOWO's 50,000-watt signal, sports fans across the eastern United States and Canada were grafted into the WOWO sports community.
Art's powerful voice and smooth delivery are self-evident, but it is his indisputable integrity that still makes him in heavy demand as a commercial spokesman. If Art endorses a product one can be sure he believes in it and uses it himself. While Bob Chase is the unquestioned icon of Fort Wayne sports, let's not forget the contribution of others such as Art Saltsberg. Thank you, Art, for a job well done.

I heard it looks crazy good on blu ray and offers a lot more bonus material then dvd. Also the lincoln dvd has much less then the blu ray. Some say the dvd is just as good. I am worried cause I hear that dvd's will be dead soon like the vhs. Any advice I get I always take into account. Thanks again.

Published: 23 April 2012
CHICAGO, April 19, 2012 – United Continental Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: UAL) today announced its enhanced carbon offset program in celebration of Earth Day, providing customers the opportunity to calculate and offset the carbon footprint associated with their air travel and cargo shipments. While United and Continental each had a similar initiative, this new program focuses on offset projects that go beyond climate change and provide social and economic benefits in communities United serves. "We provide an incredibly efficient service to hundreds of thousands of customers every day and continue to focus on investments in the latest fuel-efficient aircraft, advancement of biofuels and operational improvements," said Jimmy Samartzis, managing director of global environmental affairs and sustainability for United Airlines. "Our Eco-Skies commitment to the environment drives action today, and our redeveloped carbon offset program now enables customers to contribute to emission-reducing projects in communities we serve." After booking a trip with United, customers have the opportunity to visit United's carbon offset program website (http://co2offsets.sustainabletravelinternational.org/ua/offsets) to make a contribution to offset greenhouse gas emissions associated with the travel. While calculations are based on a comprehensive carbon footprint of the flight operations, the calculator only assigns the emissions associated with individual passenger travel. Through its partnership with Sustainable Travel International (STI), a non-profit organization, United offers customers a choice of three carbon reduction projects in communities it serves: forest conservation near San Francisco, wind power in Texas, biodiversity preservation in Belize:
Forest Conservation in California – The 23,780-acre Garcia River Forest, located in the Redwood region. The forestland was purchased by The Conservation Fund, a national nonprofit dedicated to protecting America's most vital landscapes and waterways, and was established as California's first non-profit working forest.
Renewable Energy in Texas – The Capricorn Ridge Wind farm is located in west central Texas and is comprised of more than 400 wind turbines that are capable of producing enough clean, renewable electricity to power approximately 220,000 homes annually.
Forest and Biodiversity Conservation in Belize – The Boden Creek Ecological Preserve, which environmentalists believe is one of the most-threatened tropical forests in Central America, is made up of 13,600 acres of lowland broadleaf forest. The preserve serves as a critical wildlife corridor that connects diverse inland terrestrial ecosystems with coastal marine ecosystems. "Our enhanced carbon offset program allows our customers to join us in taking meaningful actions that reduce our impact on the environment," said Samartzis. "Focusing on the environment is inextricably linked to our business and to our future growth as we continue to make progress in priority areas such as fuel-efficiency and commercialization of sustainable biofuels, and we're excited to offer customers a way to contribute as well."
United is committed to the environment through its Eco-Skies program, which is designed to make a positive impact on the environment – in the air, on the ground, at its facilities, with business partners and across communities.Eco-Skies highlights include:

New: Great authentic Beijing cuisine in San Francisco
Brand-new Beijing restaurant on Alemany and Ocean is a rare find and an oasis in our neighborhood. We've been twice in the last week and both times the food was wonderful and really interesting. I should say my husband is Chinese and both of us are adventurous Asian food eaters, so we tend to know quality and authenticity when we find it.
The owners Sandy and Jin are two Beijing natives (by way of New Zealand) who are young, energetic, and very outgoing. They are very excited about their food and eager to tell you about the special "small food" dishes and hand-made noodles Jin's mother (who ran a restaurant in Beijing for 20 years) is making in the back alongside another trained chef.
The restaurant specializes in Beijing cuisine, only here, they mean it. The place is small (9 tables), occupying an unusual corner spot you may have never noticed before. There are dishes here you will rarely find in the bay area and everything we've had has been wonderful. The first time, we had:
* Cumin Lamb
* House Special Pie--really a kind of turnover with wonderful pork and ginger
* House Special Steamed Meatball--amazingly tender and delicious
The second time we had:
* Warm Pot with fish-a kind of soup in a clay pot with tender slices of rock cod and preserved vegetable in a tasty broth
* Beijing Beef Pie--fantastic
* Beijing Style Noodles with Special Sauce-made with hand-pulled noodles you mix everything together with cucumber, been sprouts, and celery--a tad salty, but that might be Beijing style
* We even tried dumplings with fennel! Apparently it's a Beijing favorite
The menu has lots of other interesting dishes on it, including flour ball dishes (meaning dishes with dumplings), and lots of Beijing specialties as well as many more traditional Chinese restaurant dishes. They do a very inexpensive lunch as well.
re: Chandavkl
Yes the restaurant sounds very nice; I wonder what the name is and exactly where it is located.
re: SFDude
Formerly the wonderfully-named Nulite Kitchen
Beijing Restaurant
1801 Alemany Blvd, San Francisco, CA 94112
From the original poster: The name of the restaurant is BEIJING RESTAURANT. It's at 1801 Alemany Blvd. (at the corner of Ocean Avenue).
John, Becky, Nick and I had dinner at Beijing Restaurant last night and had a great time. The owners are really nice -- and we had a chance to meet Jin's mom, who is very proud of her food. We had:
** the steamed meatball -- delicious
**house special spicy eggplant -- not that spicy, but with unexpected but delicious shrimp, pork and chicken in a tasty hoisin based sauce
**Beijing beef pancake -- housemade pancake rolled around a nice beef filling,
**absolutely delicious, garlicky "boiled beef," served cold -- the best tendon that I've ever had -- again, not really spicy, but wonderful flavor and beautiful texture.
**Stirred Flour Ball with Shrimp -- small dough cylinders, about 1/2-in long, cooked to a very nice al dente texture and stir-fried with shrimp, cucumber and peas and carrots -- the veggies were a bit boring and the dish could have used a more complex sauce, but the flour balls were quite addicting because of their nice texture.
** Hot and Sour Nappa -- this was the weakest dish, not hot, not very sour -- I prefer a cold, marinated version of this dish.
We will definitely visit this restaurant again! I'm so glad that it's only 5 minutes from my house, but I'd travel to go there. There are so many interesting sounding dishes that we want to try -- all sorts of dumplings, pancakes, "pies," hand-pulled noodles, pan-fried and steamed baozi, and lots of Beijing-style meat dishes. They also serve a hot-pot dinner that looked very good at the table next to ours. It's only listed in Chinese on the menu, but you can ask Jin about it -- he's very helpful and excited about the restaurant's food.
All in all, a great experience -- very nice people, very good food.
re: Nancy Berry
and... when is the next chowdown at Beijing Restaurant?
re: MIss G
Miss G, check the stickies at the top of the board for how to be notified of chowdowns.
re: Nancy Berry
Jing and I went over the weekend. We had several of the same dishes others have written about, and I don't have much to add about these, except that the House Eggplant dish was the highlight of our meal.
The one thing we ordered that it seems others have not:
- Grilled lamb kebob appetizer. These were a bit of a disappointment. A bit fatty for me and not much cumin taste. We told the male owner (Jin?) that we thought it would be better with cumin. He said there was cumin and that they themselves prefer more cumin, but they found that their customers didn't like a strong cumin taste, so they toned it down. He said next time we should tell them, and they will make it to our taste.
I wonder how others compared it with Old Mandarin Islamic on Vicente? I enjoy them both and can't really declare a victor after one meal at Beijing Restaurant. Nice to have another authentic Beijing restaurant in town, and I hope the newcomers are successful.
After reading this I just had to check it out. Bottom line: I will return, but this place will need some time for the young owners to work out the kinks. Apparently this review triggered a big turnout, with lines out the door and long waits. (Anyone confirm this?) They had no idea what hit them, so I told them to search chowhound.com... By New Years eve (last night) it was pretty quiet though.
I stole from your page and had the cumin lamb(good), house special pie(yum!), and Beijing style noodles with special sauce(sauce was meh). Next time I gotta check out the other noodles, the flour ball dishes, the dumplings... Definitely intriguing.
re: BernalKC
as much as I love CH, I can think of a number of places that were quite favorably reviewed on this board, and yet didn't become hugely popular overnight...I suspect the crowds had something to do at least in part with the New Year.
OTOH, it is true that really good Chinese restaurants aren't all that common in that part of the City....and it figures that one would open just when I am leaving town! (sigh)
this place does sound worth some exploration. Thanks all for the reports. I am with Cynsa: when is the Chowdown?
re: susancinsf
except.. Jin was freaked out that so many knew his name, knew they were from NZ, talked about the mystery web review...
re: BernalKC
From the original poster:
I didn't catch what you meant by "mystery web review ".
re: ksherak
> didn't catch what you meant by "mystery web review "<
I think what was meant that it was a mystery to Jin how so many people knew so much about him and the place, that it must have come from some web review that he knew nothing of.
Thanks for the report. Will have to try next time I'm running around the City. Love hand pulled noodles.
