"Getting back to normal" isn't always a good thing. Did anyone expect Everett to suddenly change because of what happened?2. Big Ed Posted: September 19, 2001 at 07:43 PM (#72717)
'National disgrace' is a bit heavy, don't you think? Self-absorbed pompous arrogant jackass, yes. On the national level, I think most people probably don't give a hoot.

I have a shell script which takes a directory-name or path to the directory command-line, and create that directory. If I want to identify the argument is a valid path or only a directory-name, how can I achieve this? As if a directory-name is passed then that directory will be created in the location from where the script is being executed, and if it is a path then the directory will be created on that path. So this distinction is necessary for my script.
Thanks and regards.

Which Twitter plug in is the best and I want to make sure it is an easy plug in to activate.
[sig moderated]
Did you discover a twitter plugin ?
I think the problem is the subjective term 'best'.
It might be easiest if you could list the features you wanted.
i.e. display tweets in a list, in a side bar
send tweets
aggregate tweets
send post excerpts as tweets,
I too am looking for a decent twitter plugin for a site as well.
Of course, there are a ton of twitter related wp plugins (like many other functions as well).
Personally, I am looking for:
Must have:
1 - can display tweets on site, in page or sidebar.
2 - option for tweet subscription.
Nice to have:
send post notices as tweets
send tweets from page
can aggregate tweets for archives.
So far, I have not found any great resources for comparing plugins with feature comparisons.
~ Dave
I'm looking for something similar. A plugin that would send my personal twitter tweets with a particular hashtag, for that day, to my blog as a daily archive and exlude all @replies. Any such animal?? Please send link to @LeroysJournal

Celebrity Pictures in Designer Jeans
Kylie Jenner in RUNWAYDREAMZ
Kylie Jenner was caught taking some pictures on the 4th of July in Calabasas, California. Kylie showed her American pride by wearing a pair of the RUNWAYDREAMZ American Flag shorts. I like how RUNWAYDREAMZ give the classic 501 cutoffs some more flare and fun with all the studs and additional fabric detail.
Kylie has definitely found her style. It is a lot different than what we usually see from her sisters. It is more hipster and grunge than glam and pristine. You can click here to purchase these shorts at Singer22 for $159.
Jordana Brewster in AG Adriano Goldschmied
Jordana Brewster was snapped arriving at Sherman Oaks Veterinary Group in Sherman Oaks, California yesterday. Just like most pets, her doggie wasn't willing to go in without a fight. I hope he/she is ok!
Jordana chose to wear a very ripped up pair of AG Adriano Goldschmied jeans with a red and white striped top which matched her red and white shoes. This look is very coordinated on her. I think I need a new pair of AG Jeans actually, I love them so much! Buy AG Jeans at Singer22.com.

Amanda Seyfried in Joe's Jeans
Amanda Seyfried was seen arriving at Joan's on Third for lunch in Los Angeles, California and then leaving minus her red cardigan. She's always so happy and carefree when she's out, I love that about her!
Amanda was wearing a pair of Joe's Jeans studded denim shorts with red sandals, a red cardigan and a black tee. I'm liking the bright and intense shade of red in her knitwear, it shouts fun and excitement. I always find bold colours cheer you up, even when you feel down. Buy these shorts online at Joe's Jeans for $148.

Gavin Rossdale in AG Adriano Goldschmied & Gwen Stefani in Work Custom
Gavin Rossdale and Gwen Stefani were caught going to son Kingston's karate class in Los Angeles, California. Gavin wore a pair of AG Jeans while Gwen chose a pair of Work Custom jeans. They weren't the only ones wearing denim either. Little Zuma wore a pair of skinny acid washed jeans as well.
I think Gwen's jeans fit her amazingly. I remember the first time I saw her in these a while back and they were a bit loose. I think they look a lot better tighter. Click here to purchase both Work Custom and AG jeans at Singer22.

Once upon a time, it would have been used for pumping water from the underground basins. These days, there isn't much water around anymore, so there it sits, watching over the once thriving land.

In an effort to do more with less, CMOs are using several analytical approaches to create a more efficient operating environment. The industry is turning to lean design methods to identify manufacturing inefficiencies and improve supply chain management.
Manufacturing bottlenecks can be identified through operational simulations and multivariate analysis, using inline sensors to generate process data in real time. To ensure success, the lean manufacturing concept not only needs commitment from the top management, but it is essential that the concept be part of the culture and ingrained in everyone's daily activity.
Boehringer Ingelheim has been using Six Sigma and lean manufacturing tools to improve business and manufacturing processes for its biopharmaceutical operations since 2003. In order to gain maximal results and a continuous improvement culture, BI has a top-down and a bottom-up systematic methodology.
BI's business process excellence (BPE) policy has the commitment of top management as well as every employee. "We defined clear functions and responsibilities, made a process analysis, mapped the most value-added processes, and fixed them in a process landscape," Esch added.
According to Esch, "efficiency gained from Six Sigma and lean manufacturing tools included minimizing redundant process steps and reduction of wait and throughput times by more than 15 percent."
Meridian is another company where the lean manufacturing concept is ingrained in its culture. All Meridian management is expected to lead a process improvement project. Project progress is reviewed with the division president on a quarterly basis. Process improvement is also expected of each employee even if they have not gone through formal lean or Six Sigma training.
"By improving and streamlining our manufacturing processes we have seen dramatic improvements to the top line and bottom line, less complaints, improved customer audits, less variability, time savings, and less scrap," reported Lourdes Weltzien, GM.
Merck sites recently implemented the Merck Production System (MPS), which is based on Toyota's production system and incorporates key principles of Six Sigma across the manufacturing sites. "Process development is closely integrated with manufacturing activities so we are carefully planning how to deliver the benefits of MPS in process development so that it strengthens rather than compromises the strong innovative culture we have in place," Taylor commented.
In 2009, RecipharmCobra focused specifically on reducing lead times by applying visual planning as a tool to improve throughput, which led to a significant reduction in lead times for deviation close-out. "Clearly, for a CMO, standardization of business processes is an area where benefits can be generated, and this continues to be important to us in an environment where customer projects are unique," said Dr. Fenge.
Besides the hard quantifiable savings from lean manufacturing tools, there are intangible benefits that translate to high success rates in process transfers, improved flexibility in manufacturing scheduling, and increased manufacturing robustness as reported by Boehringer Ingelheim. Dr. Esch also touted "soft factor" benefits including team spirit and improved communication between departments that can lead to better identification and elimination of process risks.

Outrigger Tops Recycling Record with 35% Gain
Friday March 21st, 2014 - 9:25AM
These are shortcuts to your favorite social networking and bookmark sites. Add this story to your Facebook page, del.icio.us, DiggIt, and many others!
WAIKIKI, HONOLULU, HI—Eight Outrigger Hotels and Resorts 2013 eco-friendly efforts amounted to more than 27 tons of recyclable plastic bottles and aluminum cans from guestrooms, up from 20 tons in 2012, enough to preserve more than 200 cubic yards of landfill space, according to the company.
Outrigger Hotels and Resorts launched its in-room recycling program in 2006 at its two Waikiki beachfront hotels, encouraging visitors to leave plastic bottles and aluminum cans in a designated bin or area within the guestroom for recycling purposes. The program gained momentum, and in 2009, Reynolds Recycling honored Outrigger Enterprises Group with its inaugural "Green Leader Award" for being the top recycling and sustainability leader in Hawaii's tourism industry. Over the past eight years, the program has collected roughly 107 tons of recyclables that otherwise might have gone into landfills.
"Having reached the milestone of collecting more than 100 tons of recyclables, we are more committed than ever to helping keep Hawaii green," stated Barry Wallace, EVP/hospitality services. "As ambassadors for the tourism industry, it's our responsibility to ensure that Hawaii is a beautiful place to live, work and play for generations to come."
With the recyclables collected in 2013, the company was able to raise more than $27,000 for PACT, a local nonprofit that offers social services to Hawaii families in need.
Outrigger hotels and affiliated properties that participated in the 2013 recycling program included: Outrigger Waikiki on the Beach, Outrigger Reef on the Beach, Outrigger Luana Waikiki, OHANA Waikiki East, OHANA Waikiki West, OHANA Waikiki Malia, Embassy Suites-Waikiki Beach Walk and Holiday Inn Waikiki Beachcomber.

Well, it's halfway through 2016, and not much has changed since the beginning of the year. Despite the terrorism acts in Orlando, FL and Turkey, and the Brexit referendum, little has happened to affect the travel industry. Overall, things might have slowed a bit, but a majority of the fundamentals are holding steady, including occupancy, ADR and RevPAR. I've been asked why this cycle has lasted longer than those preceding it. As far as I am concerned, it's due to a single phrase: Never Again.

The Force Unleashed: Cast of Characters
July 7, 2008 - The Star Wars universe is no stranger to massive videogame projects. Even so, LucasArts hopes that their newest project, The Force Unleashed, will blow all previous efforts out of the water. The game, due out in September, will bridge the gap between Episodes III and IV and tell a tale of Darth Vader's secret Jedi apprentice. We know you've been waiting a long time for this game. Lucasarts has been hyping the project for almost as long as current-gen systems have been on the shelves. To help get you in the mood for The Force Unleashed, we're bringing you another installment of our Cast of Characters feature. The following seven heroes and villains are the stars of the game. We break down who they are and what motivates them in the dark times following the birth of the Empire.
Pre-E3 2008: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed Hands-on
July 3, 2008 - Early last week, we were whisked to the aboveground lair that acts as LucasArts's San Francisco office and bombarded with enough information on Star Wars: The Force Unleashed to choke a tauntaun -- or at least enough info to make sure this week's Monday through Thursday plan of covering every version of the Force Unleashed went off without a hitch.
NYCC 08: Lucasfilm's Latest
April 22, 2008 - Steve Sansweet's Lucasfilm con presentation is something of a traveling road show these days, a formulaic session that hits all the right notes to keep drawing in huge crowds, even when there's little real news to be had at the event.
The Force Will Be Unleashed on September 16
April 3, 2008 - LucasArts today announced that its highly anticipated videogame Star Wars: The Force Unleashed will be released on September 16, 2008 in the United States, September 17 in Southeast Asia and Australia, and September 19 in Europe.
E3 2007: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
July 11, 2007 - Of all the games we wanted to see at E3, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed was definitely near the very top of the list. The next chapter in the Star Wars saga looks to be one of the most exciting Star Wars experiences in the last few years. Players will get the chance to fill the shoes of Darth Vader's apprentice between the prequel and original trilogies. As Vader's apprentice, you'll help the Sith Lord hunt down Jedi across the galaxy -- although to be fair, it seems like you spend most of your time flinging stormtroopers around. We first saw the game in an ambitious and completely enthralling tech demo last year. At E3 this year, the game is only present in the form of a short but exciting trailer that shows off some of the amazing new technical effects allowed by the extreme Force powers you'll get a chance to use.
The Big E3 List: 2007 Edition
June 1, 2007 - E3 died last year. Booth Babes cried, fanboys screamed and anyone who had ever attended the buffet of blasting stereos and bloated neon breathed a sigh of relief. Then, "The Show" rose again.
The Force Unleashed Q&A
March 7, 2007 - During our time at LucasArts last month, we had the distinct pleasure of chatting with Hayden Blackman, Project Lead on Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Not only did he lead us (verbally) through some of the work-in-progress levels, he also showed us the amazing tech behind the game - Digital Molecular Matter and euphoria. We took the opportunity to ask him about some of the creative decisions behind the game, such as having a Sith character as lead, and some further detail on their approach to using DMM in-game, cutscenes, and casting.
Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
March 7, 2007 - New Star Wars games are always met with equal parts fond anticipation and trepidation. On one hand, each new Star Wars game gives players the opportunity to delve into a fresh storyline set a long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away. On the other hand, it is completely up to the developer to make good use of this licence and create a game that doesn't simply retread Hoth and Endor for the umpteenth time. To this end, IGN Australia was recently invited to visit George Lucas' game studio, LucasArts, to view its progress on the latest Star Wars game - Star Wars: The Force Unleashed. Announced back at E3 2006 and further elaborated on during Activison's 'Activate' event in Sydney shortly thereafter, The Force Unleashed is part of LucasArts' brave new foray into several new technologies, and we've had our fingers crossed since our first glimpses of the game that it will represent a bold new vision for the Star Wars license.
The Force Unleashed Gets Author
March 5, 2007 - Although the game isn't due for release until November this year, already LucasArts are preparing the hype train. As part of their effort to promote the next Star Wars game, The Force Unleashed, in the same mammoth way as the films were, the company today announced the author of the novel.
Game Scoop! Podcast, Episode 26
February 15, 2007 - Star Wars unleashed, Wii's voting channel and the reason your mother's hair smells funny.
LucasArts Unleashes The Force
February 14, 2007 - LucasArts officially announced its latest game in the Star Wars saga. Coming November for PS3, Xbox 360, PS2, PSP and Nintendo DS, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed explores one of the more interesting time periods in Star Wars lore. Set between the events of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith and Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope, Force Unleashed puts gamers in the role of Darth Vader's secret apprentice.

Meet Amy Chu. Amy is an extremely talented comic book writer whose newest release is a Poison Ivy mini-series entitled – Poison Ivy: Cycle of Life and Death! FINALLY, Bat-fans rejoice as Poison Ivy gets her very own mini!
Amy has also written stories for DC's Sensation Comics featuring Wonder Woman, Vertigo's Strange Sports Stories and the Vertigo Quarterly CMYK! She is the co-founder of Alpha Girl Comics which publishes her own anthology series Girls Night Out and horror/mystery The VIP Room! She enjoys non-profit work, creating educational comics for the New York Historical Society, Baltimore Museum of Art and the Museum of Chinese in Americas.
Meet Rich Douek. Rich is a Montclair, NJ local and another SUPER talented writer! Rich became infatuated with comics at a young age, using his allowance and whatever spare change he could find to buy them off the rack at the candy store near his home in NYC. Years, later, after building a successful career in copywriting (and filling up quite a few long boxes), he was able to realize a lifelong dream by publishing GUTTER MAGIC, his first original comic, through IDW and Comics Experience. Check him out on Twitter @rdouek.
Both Poison Ivy: The Cycle of Life & Death and Gutter Magic come out on January 20th and East Side Mags is happy to be able to host BOTH of these amazing talents the very weekend their books hit the shelves!

Basic Elements of Narrative outlines a way of thinking about what narrative is and how to identify its basic elements across the many communicative media in which stories are told and interpreted, exchanged and transformed. Providing a synopsis of key concepts developed by previous theorists, the book contributes original ideas to the growing body of scholarship on stories. Viewing narrative in three ways – as a cognitive structure, a type of text, and a resource for communicative interaction – this book characterizes stories as a basic human strategy for coming to terms with time, process, and change. Citing examples from literature, face-to-face interaction, graphic novels, and film, David Herman reveals what different stories have in common, and explores what remains constant when the same story is told in different media. Including a glossary of key terms, a full bibliography, and a comprehensive index, Basic Elements of Narrative is designed to be accessible to students as well as educated non-specialists. The concise, up-to-date treatment of foundational concepts also makes this book an ideal reference for scholars in the field.

Independent filmmaker Damon Russell didn't originally set out to make his captivating 2011 docudrama Snow on tha Bluff. The Atlanta native and Georgia State University alumnus insists that the story found him.
Russell is referring to Curtis Snow, the English Avenue resident on whom the film's crack peddler/armed robber is based. Snow approached the director near the end of 2008 about making a documentary about his life living in the blighted west Atlanta community commonly referred to as "The Bluff."
After spending much of the past four years producing and promoting Snow on tha Bluff, Russell thinks he has found his niche — working with real people, whom he says, "no one else is interested in."
"It's risky because you don't always know what's going to happen, but when you get it, it's really genuine," he says. "You can always cast somebody to be a crackhead, but there's nothing like just having a crackhead or someone who robs people."
Despite his talent in capturing the Bluff's frontlines, Russell hasn't found a way to make a living entirely off of his own projects. Over the past six years, he's worked with various reality TV shows, including "Flip This House" and "Made." These freelance gigs, which aren't necessarily his own creations, have allowed him to earn a paycheck while honing his craft.
"I'm lucky, working in TV lets me get paid to do stuff like this," Russell says. "I learn and work with a lot of great producers and editors, but at the end of the day I wish I was in control and say what we shot."
His freelance jobs, especially his work as a producer on A&E's cinéma vérité investigative series "The First 48," have helped him to create his first noteworthy film, one that he's truly "proud of." Although Russell doesn't hand his subjects any kind of script, he constantly collaborates with them about what they're doing and saying on camera. Russell thinks Snow was a "natural" at being himself during filming, but admits that he may not always "find somebody exactly like that."
As Russell finalizes casting for his next full-length feature, an "unofficial sequel" to Snow on tha Bluff, he's looking to Atlanta's suburbs for his next Curtis Snow. One possibility is a recent college graduate with a fierce drug habit who's dealt painkillers to everyone from lawyers to soccer moms.
"It's another tale of how drugs — in this case prescription pills — rip a person's life and family apart," Russell says. "It deals with the underworld of Atlanta and such, but a different subculture. Snow on tha Bluff is about Curtis. This one has a little more of a suburban slant to it. It's just as hardcore out in the suburbs, actually, in certain parts."
Russell, who hopes to start filming in early 2013, was initially hesitant about making another film on a similar subject matter, but someone unexpectedly offered to fund a sequel. That helped, along with the fact that he felt like there was an untold story to be explored that entwined with the first film's themes.
"It's rare that you can have money in place, so I figured out a way that it would be interesting for me," he says. "People who start on prescription pills end up on heroin because it becomes cheaper than their very expensive habit. It's people from these affluent areas out of the city that end up down in the Bluff searching for heroin. It's all connected in a really fascinating way."

This was our fourth trip to Belize and our fourth stay at the Victoria House. The service was as great as ever! From our sweet housekeeper (I wish I had asked her name), to Marlon (who is always smiling...even when it is raining and he is quickly moving cushions to a dry area), to the bar staff and servers (Tony, Justin, Gina, and Roxy, just to name a few), to the front desk folks, to Luis (who arranged a fun morning fishing trip for us with Roberto Bradley), to many others whose names have slipped my memory, once again we did not encounter an unfriendly face. From the moment Marlon picked us up until the moment we left, we felt right at home. The kind, welcoming, and helpful staff is one of the main reasons we continue to return.
Another main reason we continue to return is the FOOD! We love the lobster ceviche, so we were glad that this trip was during lobster season. We also enjoyed the lobster tacos, snapper tacos, lobster quesadillas, and the club sandwich (just to name a few) for lunch. We also enjoyed having dinner a couple of nights. Our meals were excellent, as always, and the wine selection is great for such a small island!
We enjoy staying in a casita, and over the years, we have decided that casita number 1 is our favorite. When we first stayed there in 2005, we thought the noise from the pool area and dining area would bother us, but it has never been a problem. We love its location and are pleased that we have been placed there several times.
We look forward to our trip to Belize next year (if not before!), which will hopefull include some time at this wonderful place in San Pedro! Thanks for another wonderful stay!

Digital libraries (DLs) introduce several challenging requirements with respect to the formulation, specification and enforcement of adequate data protection policies. Unlike conventional database environments, a DL environment is typically characterized by a dynamic user population, often making accesses from remote locations, and by an extraordinarily large amount of multimedia information, stored in a variety of formats. Moreover, in a DL environment, access policies are often specified based on user qualifications and characteristics, rather than on user identity (e.g. a user can be given access to an R-rated video only if he/ she is more than 18 years old). Another crucial requirement is the support for content-dependent authorizations on digital library objects (e.g. all documents containing discussions on how to operate guns must be made available only to users who are 18 or older). Since traditional authorization models do not adequately meet the access control requirements typical of DLs, we propose a content-based authorization model that is suitable for a DL environment. Specifically, the most innovative features of our authorization model are: (1) flexible specification of authorizations based on the qualifications and (positive and negative) characteristics of users, (2) both content-dependent and content-independent access control to digital library objects, and (3) the varying granularity of authorization objects ranging from sets of library objects to specific portions of objects

We had a great stay at Gran via./ Shopping centre , airport and metro very near by. We enjoyed our stay only missed loungechairs on the balcony, thst would have been nice. Family who we rented from very helpful, would stay again when in Barcelona
This was a great unit and location - close to shopping centre, metro and bus. Also a nice walk to Plaza de Espana. The owners were very friendly and helpful and happy to answer any questions we had. We would recommend to any of our friends and family.
We have had 6 wunderfull days in Barcelona. This perfect saty was generated at our base, Fair Granvia. Everything vere function very well and the hospitality from the Antonio familie was perfect. They informed us about the important thing in Barcelona, turist attactions and also where to take care. We highly recomand the Fair Granvia.
Very nice appartment, nicely located close to the city center
Very friendly and helpfull family to make you to have an enjoyable stay
We had such a great experience at this place! Everything in the house is perfectly functional and it is so easy to get to the city center in few minutes. The owners have been so kind to us, for every needing they was disponible. We were 6 guys, and it was amazing living the amazing life of Barcelona staying in that house. It's definitely to suggest! Mark: A+
nice family, nice appartment with new kitchen equipment - but horrible hot at summer nights.
We had a great time in the apartment, a very friendly and helpful host. The apartment is in next to the metro and somes cafes. The appartment is enough four 6 adults and 1 child. It has a comfortable bathroom and a nice new kitchen were you can cook what you like. But we preferred the tapa's and cervesas in the very many cafe's and restaurants. It was a top holiday.
Ha sido una estancia maravillosa. Además de que Barcelona es una ciudad inolvidable, hemos pasado unos días fantásticos en el apartamento. Lo que más me he gustado ha sido la limpieza, la terraza y el trato recibido. Sin duda, el apartamento es altamente recomendable y repetiría seguro. Muchas gracias por todo.
Tuvimos una excelente estancia, el apartamento sensacional todo muy limpio y muchas comodidades esta situado en muy buen lugar para poder movernos al centro de la ciudad, los dueños encantadores siempre intentando informarnos de todo 100% recomendable

Is my engine drunk, or is there a good reason to move the King here?
Here my engine recommends 11. Kf1, and scores the position after this move at +2.3. After 11. Bb2, the engine gives a score of just +0.9. Why in the world is it better to move the King, as lose the right to castle? Is there a good reason, or is my engine drunk?
There are som positions where engines have no clue. I don't know if this is one of them, because Kf1 seems to have it's merits. It gets out of a potential pin on the king, but other than that I don't know. I can't believe that white is up the equivalent of two pawns in this position, or is anywhere near ariving at a position where he is.
I agree. It's wicked.
11. Bd2 Bxd2+ 12. Qxd2 Qe6 13. d5!? Qg6 14. 0-0 d6 15. Rac1 Rfe8 16. Bd3 Qh5 is the line that Fritz 13 suggested though I feel 16. Qd3 makes play more difficult for Black. It also scored the position as +1.7. When I had it play from 16. Qd3, it scored +0.62. Kf1 is suggested with the idea of artificial castling after g3, Kg2 Rfe1 and Kg1 though this seems very speculative in view of the fact that Black simply consolidates with d6, Nc6 and Be6 later. Both positions are going by tablebases and not really worth examining very far beyond the 12th or 13th move as Black simply consolidates and White's pieces are disjointed. Analysis engines are good for post-mortem study and possibly openings preperation but I don't know how many real life players would take either side in this game as it really looks from the position that no matter what move White plays, Black can only equalize.
There is one position I know of where Chessmaster 9000 makes an obvious blunder. It will literally throw away a draw by the opponent forcing perpetual just to save a few pawns.
If anyone is interested I can show the position. I'm curious to know what more up to date engines have to say.
My guess is that the Bb4 is a target. The engine must have calculated that after something like 11.Kf1 Qa5 12.c5, it will be captured by pushing the queenside pawns. Best way to know is to play a few more moves 'by hand' against the engine and see what happens.
You are partially right, I didn't realize before that the bishop is trapped.
After the queen moves, white will play 12. a3 Ba5 13. b4 Bb6 14. c5 and white wins the bishop.

The Chapel On The Rock II
Eric Glaser
Photograph - Photography
This image of Saint Catherine of Sienna's Chapel at Camp Saint Malo in Colorado - otherwise known as the "Chapel on the Rock" - was captured on a crystalline-cold December morning following an overnight snowfall. Over the years, thousands of visitors (including Pope John Paul II, in 1993) have come to enjoy its simplicity and beauty.
To have contemplated such a magnificent scene on that morning, in its ethereal stillness and light, was like touching the very face of God. It reminded me how fleeting - and precious - moments like these really are.
Saint Catherine of Siena Chapel
Saint Malo Retreat Center
United States

The following information about the chapel is taken directly from the Camp Saint Malo website:
The founder of Camp St. Malo, Monsignor Joseph Bosetti, had for years entertained an idea that one day he would build a chapel on this site. In 1916 he and two friends observed a falling meteor during the night and in his search for the remnants the next morning, he came across a large rock. The beauty of the land inspired the priest and he remembered Jesus' words to Peter: "Upon this rock, I will build my Church." (Matt 16:18).
Vowing one day to build a chapel here, Msgr. Bosetti prayed for nearly 20 years to acquire the funds. During this time, he found himself in a constant battle with the Colorado Highway department which had plans to dynamite the enormous piece of granite to both widen and straighten the curve in the road.
Eventually, Msgr. Bosetti won the battle and years later, when the chapel became a reality, it was reported that a group of engineers who laid out the road came to the dedication and thanked him for his perseverance.
The chapel was designed by noted Denver architect Jacques Benedict. The contractors were the Coulihan Brothers and Charlie Miller of the nearby town of Allenspark, who had native stone hauled in by mule carts from the surrounding area to use as building material.
The land on which Camp St. Malo is built was given to the Catholic Archdiocese of Denver by Mr. and Mrs. Oscar Malo who purchased the 160 acres from the William McPhee estate in 1935.
The Malos donated the funds for the building of the chapel and paid for its maintenance for decades. The chapel was dedicated by Archbishop Urban Vehr in 1936 to the honor of Saint Catherine of Siena and in the memory of Mrs. Malo's mother, Catherine Smith Mullen.
In 1993, Pope John Paul II visited the chapel during his trip to Denver for the World Youth Day and bestowed his personal blessing on the chapel.
Over the years, thousand of visitors have stopped at the chapel to enjoy its simplicity and beauty as it is framed against majestic Mt. Meeker. In 1999, Boulder County designated the chapel as a historic site. The Chapel on the Rock is truly a Colorado landmark.

text: I am trying to link to a site called Mapquest directly via a URL. To do this, the spaces in the variables need to be changed to + signs, and i'm not really good enough to go through all that. I was wondering if someone had a script or could suggest somewhere to find one that would do this. Thanks all

NEW YORK -- The New York Yankees have summoned right-hander Kevin Whelan from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, adding another fresh arm to their depleted bullpen.
In a corresponding roster move, outfielder Chris Dickerson has been sent down to Triple-A.
The 27-year-old Whelan, who was called up before Friday night's game against the Cleveland Indians at Yankee Stadium, was 1-1 with a 1.67 ERA and 18 saves for the Yankees' International League affiliate.
He was acquired by the Yankees in 2006 as part of the blockbuster trade which sent slugger Gary Sheffield to the Detroit Tigers.
The Yankees, who are already without setup man Rafael Soriano and left-handers Damaso Marte and Pedro Feliciano, were dealt a devastating blow on Thursday when they learned that 25-year-old Joba Chamberlain has a torn ligament in his elbow and will require Tommy John surgery.
To clear room for Whelan on the 40-man roster, the Yankees moved Chamberlain to the 60-day disabled list.
Currently, the Yankees' patchwork bullpen includes steady right-hander David Robertson, future Hall of Famer Mariano Rivera and pleasant surprise Luis Ayala, but not much else.
Left-hander Boone Logan has been unable to retire left-handed hitters, while Jeff Marquez, Lance Pendleton and Amauri Sanit are -- for the most part -- unknown and inexperienced.
General manager Brian Cashman said Thursday that the organization is unwilling to call up highly-touted Double-A prospects Dellin Betances and Manuel Banuelos.
The 29-year-old Dickerson was batting .357 with three RBIs in 15 games for the Yankees.
