How much space does a good skate park need?
It would fit in that Digi-Pen (whatever the fuck it's called) fountain space? It just seems... not big enough (when you consider buffer area too). Why do it half-assed if it's going to be a squeeze?
I am all for a skate park, and I know the city jerks skaters around, but why plan a location at Seattle Center when it could all change with the redesign coming up soon? Or would the proposed location fit with any of the redesign plans and not be a problem?
"Newsflash: THERES ALREADY A HUGE FOUNTAIN, LIKE, 50 FEET AWAY!!!"
That's like tearing down your favorite restaurant is okay because there's another restaurant like 50 feet away. Aren't all restaurants the same? The DuPen Fountain is completely different than the International Fountain.
That all-caps exclamation is so well, lame, that I surprised it didn't start with "DUDE!"
The skaters don't even like that site all that much, but thought that was their only choice. Now they've discovered their being pitted against the visual arts community, which I'm sure they don't want. Dude, it really sucks.
The Du Pen fountain is different from the International Fountain in that it's totally fucking ugly. It's underused and a waste of space. Get rid of it.
You're right. The skaters don't like that site. It's almost a 1/3rd smaller than the old SeaSk8 and it's in a wonky corner, but right now, they want to get a site without having to start from square. The likelihood of them getting a different site in any sort of timely manner is slim at best. I'd love to be wrong about that one, but I don't think I am.
The sad part of all of this, is that Seattle Center is a total wasteland. It's ugly, it's useless 10 months out of the year and it's totally ridiculous that the Center has made it so damn hard for these guys to get a decent park. This was nearly a sure thing last week, it's tragic that it's getting held up any longer. Dude.
So, is the "Seattle Center is totally worthless" line the new thing for Slog, after that shoddy, simple-minded article last week?
I am pro skateboarder, but anti-fountain destruction. Personally, I like that area of the center. Surely there are other places on the Seattle Center Campus. How about that creepy and ugly surface parking lot for Memorial Stadium?
I believe Memorial Stadium is already being fought over by other entities.
I've lived here for a long, long time and the Center has been pretty useless for a long, long time.
Seriously, when were you there last? I'd love to hear what people do at the Center. I'm really not being snarky. The last time I was there was when I worked at a daycamp. There's nothing there. The Fun Forest is a death trap; Key Arena is, supposedly, falling apart; the Center House is a joke; need I go on?
This is finally an opportunity for the Center to get some use, and the city is totally blowing it.
Here's a bunch of stuff we missed (or will probably miss) at Seattle Center this year:

Two Councilmembers have raised concerns about the site. Don't the skaters have five votes? Has the vote been taken yet?
Jonah, you're getting your Stranger propaganda mixed up with your Sonics propaganda.
There's not enough of the Fun Forest left for it to be a "deathtrap"; The only people who think the Coliseum is "falling apart" are the Sonics - and they only say that to get yet another free renovation of it; The Center House is only a "Joke" to dubious writers from alternative weeklies who apparently think that the Center House needs only an "upscale" restaurant to make it non-Jokey.
In reality, the Seattle Center houses one of the nation's biggest tourist attractions, an NBA franchise, two theatre companies, the Children's theatre, The Children's Museum, a high school football stadium, and acres of park space and meeting space. Many cities would love to have that kind of attraction.
Just because hipsters don't have much cause to go there doesn't mean that other citizens don't use it.
The Stranger would do well to remember that one of the reasons The Seattle Weekly started to be regarded as dorky was their weird obsession with the Seattle Center back in the "imagineering" days.
I've been to Seattle Center about seven times this year. An awards show at the Space Needle, a Vera show, two fundraising dinners at Fisher Pavillion, a volunteer appreciation party at the Exhibition Hall, VegFest, a meeting, and something else I can't remember. Last year it was a wedding at the Needle, Gay Pride, and some other stuff.
Center House would be cool again if they'd PUT THE FUCKING BUBBLEATOR BACK.
if the park is not covered then it will be useless most of the year since it rains. Burnside in Portland and the park in Vancouver Canada are the best ideas for Seattle. Build under a bridge or "I 5" there are some really ugly spots under the highway that could use a sk8 park. The park does not "have" to go by Seattle center it can be anywhere. Sk8 parks are perfect for areas under overpasses.
How about that AND seattle center? See, there are skate parks for different levels of skater and I doubt parents would want their six year olds under I-5.
I have been going to the Seattle Center since the 60's, and while its not "totally useless" it sure could use some improvement.
But ripping out a fountain to cram a skatepark in makes nobody happy except the bosses at the Center, who are trying to have the least possible skatepark they can get away with.
The DuPen fountain may be "fugly" to you, but thats just subjective personal opinion- it has its fans, and it gets used in an entirely different way than the turbo douche fountain over on the lawn. Little kids wade in it, parents sit on the edge, and it makes that concrete gulch where it sits livable and pleasant on hot, crowded days.
And its way too small for a decent skatepark anyway.
They just wanna stick it there because Vera is right there, and they figure to ghettoize all those pesky kids in one place will make em easier to police, literally.
The Center made a deal. Gates and his foundation made a deal- and the deal was, they would REPLACE the skate park. But neither of them will actually commit potentially profitable real estate to do it.
The Center location is needed because its, well, central. Portland has a bunch of skateparks, and Seatlle has virtually none.
And no political will to build anything for the public- instead, we ease zoning to build more condos and office towers- 50 odd construction projects downtown right now, another 150 in the permit process, 15,000 new, expensive condos under construction, but we "cant afford" one skatepark?
Since I work only a couple of blocks away, I eat my lunch at Seattle Center regularly. I started sitting at Du Pen is a great lunch spot. Less screaming children and it isn't closed off for half the summer for post-festival grass reseeding.
seattle is pretty good at taking good things and ruining them. an elderly gentlemen at one meeting told me that it is usually seattles' policy to "find something fun and tear it down"
as for 'fountains' and 50 feet away, they already did that to us with the ballard bowl and ruined a perfectly good scene and park in order to suck some yuppie developers off.
here's lookin at you Cathy Tuttle, you worthless piece of shit!
This all avoids the real reason the sk8r park got killed - the non-voter Gates Foundation got SCC to kill it.
Yes, but the Gates Foundation saved the entire Seattle Center, which has been in the red so badly in the past ten years, the City probably would let Fox News take over and make it the Murdoch Center.
The Gates Foundation was a good move for the Center. Too bad they can't figure out this seemingly easy issue.

Very congested today....can't smell anything so I'll have to try later. I wore my Red Vetyver for everyone else today ;-)
I'm going to wear my decant of Black musk tomorrow which I'm really liking as well and decide if I need a bottle now that I own Musk to Musk.
I just got this and it definitely deserves a spot among the rest of my Montales.
It starts out light, with a bit of the sourness of the aoud and then a smell that just smells like fresh laundry...
Agreed. My favorite house but other than my most worn Red Vetyver I will only order 50mL any more....since most of them I own only take 2-3 sprays for a full day wearing ,100mL is overkill.
Still my top. I can't figure it out either LOL. Something in it is just so imminently wearable and addictive at the same time. There are times I think I may like Black Aoud or Aoud Lime even more,...
I know. It was a surprise to me too ;-)
Would in a heartbeat had I not just gotten a 50mL off the splits board here.
No sorry, never tried the Aoud Musk.
Not dry per se but I'm absolutely loving Le Labo Vetiver 46 for the fall with its green vetiver and incense accord.
Well, don't know about your blotter but I'm wearing my sample and it is just lovely. Sitting here watching the game and keep sticking my nose down my t-shirt for deep whiffs.
I find Black Musk a very nice counterpunch to Black Aoud.
I've been wearing my 20mL quite a bit and when it is out I'll be ordering a full bottle.
I own Taj and Black Aoud. Trust me, the rose is NOTHING alike. Those 2 are very different animals.
Love Montale.
Wore Wild Aoud yesterday.....some slag it here for it not being an instrument of force a'la Black Aoud but I love it for its versatility. The Aoud/Woods combo works well.
As a nice counterpoint to Black Aoud, Black Musk is wonderful.
I have recently fallen back in love with Aoud Lime as well.

2 compliments on it today alone.

Me too, along with Montale Black Musk and L'Air du Desert Marocain received today.

Thanks for all the food for thought! I'm gonna sleep on it and try to decide.
Any other opinions? I need to start packing tomorrow.
I'm leaning towards Grey Vetiver, Red Vetyver almost surely.

Oooh.....good pair I hadn't thought about.

I like Pursuit.
I used to like Desire Blue....now I can't see what I ever saw in it. Last time I wore it all I smelled was bad laundry detergent.
I bought Live Jazz from a fellow basenoter semi-blind. I remember smelling it and liking it quite awhile back. Hoping the love is still there.

Getting ready to enjoy the perfect storm for me: being onstage, cool weather for Mississippi, and an opportunity to wear my favorite whilst using a heavy hand to apply so I can wallow in it!

Oh, but the majority of them are full bottles in my collection....or ones that I had a large decant and bought or am buying a full bottle. I typically don't buy large decants unless I've tried a frag...

Wonderful campsite. Went for two nights from May 23rd and we practically had the campsite to ourselves. Got a bit windy at night but nothing unbearable. The view was spectacular form the tops of the rocks and is not too far from the entrance of the main park. good rocks to climb all around with fire pits and bathrooms nearby. Make sure to try the health food store nearby the West Entrance. Very delicious! Check out the pictures! Would definitely return in a heartbeat. There was not one back campsite on this campground.

Transposable elements (TEs) are major sources of genetic variation, and mating systems are believed to play a significant role in their dynamics. For example, insertion number is expected to be higher in sexual than in asexual organisms due to the inability of TEs to colonize new genomes in the absence of sex. The goal of this study was to determine the impact of the loss of sexual reproduction on TE load. Daphnia pulex has two reproductive modes, obligate and cyclical parthenogenesis, which differ with respect to the production of diapausing eggs. Cyclical parthenogens produce them meiotically, while obligate parthenogens produce them clonally. Pokey is a TTAA-specific DNA transposon, and is a stable component of Daphnia genomes. We used a PCR-based approach, TE-Display, to estimate the number of Pokey insertions in 22 cyclic and 22 obligate isolates of D. pulex. As expected, the copy number of Pokey insertions is significantly higher in cyclic than in obligate isolates. However, the distribution of elements among isolates within each breeding system is similar, which is congruent with the recent establishment of obligate lineages from a cyclic ancestor. We also assayed 46 isolates from eight cyclic populations and found that very few Pokey insertions were observed in more than one isolate, suggesting that Pokey has been active recently. Sequencing of PCR products from the TE-Display analysis shows that Pokey inserts into both coding and noncoding regions of the genome. However, there is no obvious similarity among sequences downstream of the TTAA Pokey insertion site.

Clarksburg City Council Swears in Newly Appointed Member
Written by Your 5News Team
Last updated on January 25, 2013 @ 1:48AM
Created on January 25, 2013 @ 12:56AM
Bob Caplan officially became the newest member of the Clarksburg City Council Thursday evening after an official swearing in ceremony.
One week ago he was appointed by council to fill the seat former councilman Jim Hunt held for the last 27 years.
Hunt was at the meeting, and said with a laugh that it all still felt a little awkward for him. But, he'll now consult other cities and travel around the country.
Caplan was born and raised in Clarksburg. After serving in the military, he moved back to the area and now owns a jewelry store. He's been active in the Chamber of Commerce and other civic organizations.
"I look forward to serving the people of Clarksburg, and please, I'm an open book. Let me know if there's anything on your mind. I'll be glad to help you," says Caplan.
His first actual council meeting will be February 7th.

In a language where both are available, would you prefer to see an instance constructor or a static method that returns an instance?
For example, if you're creating a
String from a
new String(chars);
We started with Q&A. Technical documentation is next, and we need your help.
Whether you're a beginner or an experienced developer, you can contribute.
In a language where both are available, would you prefer to see an instance constructor or a static method that returns an instance?
For example, if you're creating a
In Effective Java, 2nd edition, Joshua Bloch certainly recommends the former. There are a few reasons I can remember, and doubtless some I can't:
The downsides:
I write a constructor when creating the instance has no side effects, i.e. when the only thing the constructor is doing is initializing properties. I write a static method (and make the constructor private) if creating the instance does something that you wouldn't ordinarily expect a constructor to do.
For example:
Because I adhere to this convention, if I see
while reading my code, I have a very different set of expectations about what each of those two lines is doing. That code isn't telling me what it is that makes creating a Foo different from creating a Bar, but it's telling me that I need to look.
There's a paper from ICSE'07 that studied the usability of constructors vs. factory patterns. While I prefer factory patterns, the study showed that developers were slower in finding the correct factory method.
If your object is immutable, you may be able to use the static method to return cached objects and save yourself the memory allocation and processing.
I've been working on a public API recently, and I've been agonizing over the choice of static factory methods versus constructor. Static factory methods definitely make sense in some instances, but in others it's not so clear and I'm uncertain whether consistency with the rest of the API is reason enough to include them over constructors.
Anyway, I came across a quote from a Bill-Venners interview with Josh Bloch that I found helpful:
Having read that quote, and the study that Uri mentioned*, I'm feeling inclined to err in favour of constructors unless there are compelling reasons to do otherwise. I think a static factory method without good cause is probably just unnecessary complexity and over-engineering. Though I might well change my mind again by tomorrow...
*Unfortunately this study focused less on static factory methods and more on the factory pattern (where a separate factory object exists to create new instances), so I'm not sure one can really draw the conclusion that static factory methods confuse many programmers. Although the study did give me the impression that they often would.
Static Method. Then you can return a null, rather than throwing an exception (unless a reference type)
I prefer instance constructor, just because that makes more sense to me, and there's less potential ambiguity with what you're trying to express (ie: what if FromCharacters is a method which takes a single character). Certainly subjective, though.
I personally prefer to see a normal constructor, since contructors should be used to construct. However, if there is a good reason to not use one, ie if FromCharacters explicitly stated that it didn't allocate new memory, it would be worthwhile. The "new" in the invocation has meaning.
It depends. For languages in which using an instance constructor is "normal", I would generally use one unless I had good reason not to. This follows the principle of least surprise.
By the way, you forgot another common case: A null/default constructor paired with an initialization method.
As Jon Skeet paraphrased Josh Bloch, there are a number of reasons why a static factory method is preferable to a constructor in many cases. I would say that if the class is a simple one with no expensive setup or complicated usage, stay with the idiomatic constructor. Modern JVMs make object creation extremely fast and cheap. If the class might be subclassed or you are able to make it immutable (a big advantage for concurrent programming, which is only going to get more important), then go with the factory method.
One more tip. Don't name the factory method

1. The Mavericks came back from 15 points down with 4:48 remaining in the fourth quarter and beat the Thunder in overtime, 112-105, to take a 3-1 series lead. Who is to blame for the Thunder collapse?
2. Inside 10 seconds to play in regulation with the Thunder clinging to a 2-point lead, Nick Collison got called for the foul on Dirk Nowitzki, who tied the game with two free throws. Was it a foul?
3. The Chicago Bulls haven't lost three straight games yet this season. What does Derrick Rose have to do tonight in Game 4 to avoid falling into a 3-1 hole in the Eastern Conference Finals?
4. If the 2010 free agency rules aren't reinstated, Santonio Holmes, Braylon Edwards and Brad Smith will all be unrestricted free agents. Jets head coach Rex Ryan firmly believes that Randy Moss could fill the void, saying that even in the twilight of his career, he creates matchup problems. Is Moss worth the risk?
5. Bengals president Mike Brown told NFL Network on Monday the team's stance on quarterback Carson Palmer has not changed. He said he has no plans to trade Carson Palmer, and if he chooses not to play with the Bengals he would have to retire. Who will win the standoff between Carson Palmer and the Bengals?
6. Dirk Nowitzki scored all 12 of his fourth-quarter points, including the game-tying free throws, as the Mavericks rallied from a 15-point deficit with a 17-2 run over the final five minutes of regulation. How has this year's playoffs impacted Dirk's legacy as an all time great?
7. LeBron James said he can relate to what Derrick Rose is going through, having won the MVP and played for the Coach of the Year, but running into a team in the playoffs with multiple matchup problems. Which team is better, the 2010-11 Chicago Bulls or the 2009-10 Cleveland Cavaliers?
8. Chicago Bulls forward Joakim Noah has been fined $50,000 for using a derogatory and offensive term from the bench during the first quarter of the Bulls' 96-85 loss to the Miami Heat last night in Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals. Did the NBA get it right?
9. Luol Deng defended Noah, saying that it's difficult for players not to react to fans. Are Deng's comments in or out of bounds?
10. With a win tonight, the Heat will find themselves one win away from the NBA Finals. The Heat would most likely face the Dallas Mavericks, who hold a commanding 3-1 series lead over the Thunder. Who needs to win a title more this season, Dirk or Lebron?

Chow BREAKING: Bad Lighting Nearly Ruins Dining Experience!
posted by March 20 at 11:18 AMon
Everybody loves Osteria la Spiga. Me too. I loved la Spiga in its old digs on Broadway—heck, after two or three dozen visits I'd even come to appreciate their Epcot-Center-esque "dat's Italian!" decor. The food was so good—particularly the pasta—that it hardly mattered that every surface was spackled with cliches. So I was looking forward to eating at la Spiga after its big move to 12th Avenue—particularly in the wake of all the rave reviews, most of which heaped as much praise on la Spiga's new space as they did on la Spiga's food. And, yeah, the room is beautiful. And the food? As good as I remembered it… but outclassed, just a bit, by the space.
One thing bothered me, though—the lighting. Not the lights over the booths, which looked fine, but the light over my two-top table. They've got these weird… flashlight… things… hanging most of the tables.
The the light they give off is cold and harsh—and has a weird green glow. It's unflattering—to the food, to your dining companion. Lean forward and it glares in your eyes and makes you look cadaverous…
…lean back and you can't hear the person your dining with.
I wouldn't say that the lighting at la Spiga ruined our dining experience. But it came close. Oh, the humanity.

A video of the protest has been uploaded to Facebook, while
supporters continue the picket outside the building in
downtown Queen St.
A large banner reading, 'stop super funding Israeli

The protesters are demanding an interview with the Superfund
chief executive.
A large noisy protest has gathered outside as students from
the university joined in the march down Queen St with
banners, chanting.
They have stopped at a side door of the tower block at 21
Queen St where NZ Superfund is housed, blocking the entry.
Earlier security guards locked the main double doors to
prevent protesters getting in.
About six police officers are lining the entry, ushering
workers in and out of the building.
Chants of "blood, blood, blood on your hands", and "boycott
genocide, boycott Israel'' are being shouted.
One protester asked, "Our taxes kill children, what do we
think of that?", which was met with cries of "shame, shame''.
The loud protest has grabbed the attention of a number if

Israeli authorities Tuesday announced the approval of 942 new settler homes in annexed east Jerusalem, provoking Palestinian fury on the eve of the resumption of fragile peace talks with Israel.
The Jerusalem municipality said that while it had only now given final approval for the new homes in Gilo, an existing settlement in east Jerusalem, they had been a long time in the planning.
But senior PLO official Yasser Abed Rabbo said the announcement, coupled with the weekend approval of around 1,200 homes to be built elsewhere in east Jerusalem and in the West Bank, threatened the "collapse" of talks.
"This settlement expansion is unprecedented," Abed Rabbo said. "It threatens to make talks fail even before they've started."
The last peace talks broke down in 2010 on the issue of settlement building.
The latest developments come as the Israelis are due to free 26 Palestinian long-term prisoners -- the first of a batch of 104 to be released under a deal agreed to get the talks going again.
US Secretary of State John Kerry during a visit to Colombia on Monday urged the Palestinians "not to react adversely" to the weekend Israeli settlement announcement.
Kerry, who took the lead in securing last month's resumption of peace talks after a three-year hiatus, stressed the need for the two sides to return to the negotiating table as planned on Wednesday in Jerusalem.
The city's leftwing deputy mayor Yosef Pepe Alalu told AFP the municipality had approved a construction plan for 942 homes in Gilo.
"This is a terrible decision which is a provocation against the Palestinians, the Americans and the whole world who oppose continued settlement building," he said.
The city confirmed the homes' approval but said they had been planned for a long time.
"The authorisation (was) granted yesterday," a statement from Mayor Nir Barakat's office said Tuesday.
But "the housing development in the Jerusalem neighbourhood of Gilo was previously announced over two years ago."
Israel's housing ministry on Sunday announced tenders for the construction of 793 settlement housing units in annexed east Jerusalem and 394 elsewhere in the West Bank.
"Settlement expansion goes against the US administration's pledges and threatens to cause the negotiations' collapse," said Abed Rabbo.
Kerry, speaking in Bogota on Monday, sought to neutralise the atmosphere, noting that the settlement plans were "to some degree expected," and calling for both sides to resolve their major issues.
"We have known that there was going to be a continuation of some building in certain places, and I think the Palestinians understand that," he said.
Kerry said he did not expect the latest developments to become a "speed bump," but he reiterated that the United States regards all settlements as illegal.
"Once you have security and borders solved, you have resolved the question of settlements. And so I urge all the parties not to react adversely or to provoke adversely, whichever party may do one or the other in any way," he said.
Israel meanwhile was preparing to release 26 veteran Palestinian prisoners ahead of Wednesday's talks, reportedly to begin in the early hours of the morning.
Israeli public radio said that the 26 had been moved to Ayalon prison, in Ramle near Tel Aviv, where they had undergone "security checks" prior to their release.
The radio said that police and prisons service vehicles were rehearsing their route from Ramle to the West Bank crossing near Ramallah where they are to be handed over to Palestinian authorities.
The remaining 78 prisoners will be freed in batches depending on progress in talks.
A last-minute appeal against their release by families of victims was rejected Tuesday by the Supreme Court, which said prisoner releases were political decisions for the government alone to take, court documents said.
Palestinian chief negotiator Saeb Erakat underlined the importance of the prisoner release for peace talks to continue.
"We hope to put into effect what we've agreed on... we hope for the release of 104 prisoners," he said.
"There is a clear understanding between us and the Americans and Israelis. Any change (in that) will mean the agreement is off the table."

Blogs Liberty and Power Excuses, Rationalizations and MisrepresentationsFeb 16, 2004 2:15 pm
Excuses, Rationalizations and Misrepresentations
First, and I'm really sick of this, he characterizes all people who do not want the U.S. flying all around the world solving problems as simple minded isolationist bigots like Pat Buchanan. If there is one reason that libertarians and classical liberals need to stand up and shout more loudly in public debates it's because the right is trying to demean and ignore us. Is he not aware of the widely held view that someone can oppose foreign military adventures and still support free trade and open immigration? Has he, like every neo-con I seem to encounter these days, decided to simply ignore us like foolish children? Why do Republicans wonder why libertarians are becoming increasingly disenchanted with their politics if they decide not to listen to us, and in the case of this column simply misrepresent us?
Second, like every neo-con I've ever heard, he cannot and will not say what he really thinks about why the neo-con view of the world is not merely an update of Wilson's interventionism of the early 20th century. I won't make judgements on Krauthammer's character. I don't know him well enough to go that far. But it seems to me that for most neo-cons the decision to impose some vague form of"our way of life" is based largely on questions of wealth and race. We don't need to start democracy in Africa because, well, they are, you know....hint, hint. The Arab world has oil. Get it?
Yeah, I get it. Black lives aren't worth saving. Arabs probably aren't either, but more importantly we need the oil. I'll make any neo-con out there a bet. There will be more freedom in Africa within our lifetimes than anywhere the U.S. continues to meddle like Iraq or Afghanstan. One caveat: once Iraq breaks up into three separate countries, democracy in the Kurdish part doesn't count because the Kurds already have democracy there without our help.

TechnoServe Featured in Global Agricultural Productivity Report
October 24, 2013
The Global Harvest Initiative's new report on food security spotlights TechnoServe's work with the poultry industry in Mozambique.
How can the world boost agricultural productivity to meet increasing demand while conserving environmental resources and improving people's lives? This is the subject of Global Harvest Initiative's fourth annual Global Agricultural Productivity Report.
By 2050, agricultural output will have to double to keep pace with population growth, changing diets and increasing demand.
The report, released last week at the World Food Prize Symposium in Des Moines, Iowa, examines the state of global and regional agricultural productivity. It seeks to identify sustainable solutions to improving productivity across agricultural value chains and the key policies necessary to support these measures.
The report cites four case studies, including TechnoServe's work with Mozambique's poultry industry, to illustrate how well-designed value chain programs can sustainably increase productivity. TechnoServe worked with players along the entire poultry value chain — from farmers and associations to companies and government agencies — to help the industry's sales grow from $25 million in 2005 to $160 million in 2009.
Read the report to learn more.

Arizona Cardinals
Report: Guard Mike Gibson to join Cardinals
The Arizona Cardinals offensive line has been plagued with injuries and depth issues throughout the 2012 season but especially in recent weeks.
Center Lyle Sendlein tore the MCL in his left knee during the team's Week 12 loss to the St. Louis Rams.
With Sendlein — who had previously started 80 straight games — forced to the sidelines for the remainder of the season, Ken Whisenhunt has relied on third-year veteran Rich Ohrnberger to start at center during the team's past two contests.
Ohrnberger, who had played in all 13 games this season, injured his knee in the Cardinals' 58-0 loss to the Seattle Seahawks Sunday and was placed on injured reserve Monday. Arizona replaced his roster spot with veteran quarterback Brian Hoyer, but still wanted some depth over the final three games. And from the looks of it, they may have found it Tuesday.
News: Cardinals signed OG-C Mike Gibson to help their horribly leaky offensive line today.
— Eric Edholm (@Eric_Edholm) December 11, 2012
Gibson, a former sixth-round pick by the Philadelphia Eagles, has played in just 17 career NFL games. The guard last appeared with the Seattle Seahawks during the 2010 season.
Gibson was previously cut by the Eagles in training camp.
I'm back… glad to be apart of a team again. I am happy to be apart of the AZ cardinals organization.. #GoCards

Election Season Means Clock Is Ticking on Trade

So far, 2015 has been a great year for those who believe free and open trade is critical to the U.S. economy. We've already seen action on a number of trade bills and proposals that seek to expand global trade from less developed countries. Renewal of the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) and the African Growth and Opportunity Act (AGOA) means that the U.S. has retroactively reduced tariffs on many goods coming from several less developed countries as a way to spur economic growth for both sides of the transaction.

Trade Victories Pave Way for Historic Agreement
December 14, 2015
Posted by Cindy Squires
Many wood products traders have been following the sometimes ridiculous machinations of the U.S. Congress over the last two years in search of the answer to a simple question: when will Washington see fit to return the money paid in extra duties during the lapse of the Generalized System of Preferences (GSP) program? Thankfully, with passage of the Trade Preferences Extension Act of 2015, we are finally starting to see U.S. Customs and Border Protection begin the refund process. As important as GSP renewal is to many traders, Congress in this legislative package also set the stage for further action on a number of trade agreements that could boost global trade and hopefully spur further economic growth here in the U.S. and around the world.

(HOLLYWOOD, CA) -- She looks young enough to be an actual schoolgirl sexily dressed in a seductive dark outfit that would make Britney Spears blush, but make no mistake newcomer Judas is down for adult sex and a devilish good time. The twenty-one year old Houston, Texas native is new on the LA porn scene and looking to get banged.
"I was born to fuck," Judas emphatically states over a dinner at a Hollywood eatery.
"I'm here to make the leap into porn stardom and I might even be dirtier than Belladonna."
Dirtier than Belladonna? High self praise indeed but one look at the tiny five foot, hundred pound dynamo puts that possibility firmly in mind. But would she take on a baseball bat?
"I might shove a baseball bat up my ass because assholes are meant to stretch aren't they?" she says with a seriousness that makes you wonder what else is going on inside her sexy head. The brunette cutie is an open book. She moved to Los Angeles just weeks ago after a quick pit stop in Sacramento and signed with Foxxx Modeling who is busy booking her shoots.
"I've always been horny and I've been addicted to porn since forever so this was always on my to-do-list. I love sex in every position and want to hook up with men and women. Sex is full of filth and it's dirty but in a good way. I guess you could call it the sweetness of sin," she offered.
Judas is not your typical young lady as she prefers listening to Black Sabbath, Iron Maiden, Marilyn Manson, Depeche Mode and Skinny Puppy over more age appropriate music.
"Judas is completely different from any girl we've ever booked," stated director Will Ryder. "Just one look made us curious as to what was going on with this chick but none of us expected what we would soon hear coming out of mouth."
Judas is a devil worshipper. Fully in love with Satan but as she says, in a cool way. "If I could I would have sex with Lucifer. When I have sex with people I fuck like I'm possessed," she explained.
"I didn't know if I should have run, screamed or hid," Ryder remarked. "I was a bit freaked out at first. But then I realized apart from the devil stuff she is pretty cool."
Ryder has cast her in his upcoming movie Charles Manson XXX a 1960s hippie love story about the Manson Family.
"I'm looking forward to being in Will Ryder's movie because nothing like this has ever been done."
Also cast by Hustler Video for an upcoming shoot, Judas is on her way to fulfilling her sexual objectives.
"Listen, don't be afraid of me, I'm just looking to have fun and get laid. If you're not down for that find another slut," she remarked before walking away down a long dark corridor.

"Wow! I was pleasantly surprised by conditions. Some new overnight snow made the sketchy runs fun and the groomers plain awesome. Waited in a line of maybe 4 people once... just did laps on beautiful spring snow. Get it before it melts or is washed away by rain!"
"Very good conditions today considering he season we're having. Hard pack. Not many people here, ski directly onto the lift. "
"I was there on 1/4/16 and it was quite bad. there was one lift open and it didn't open till noon since it was broken and then the conditions were so bad. the main problem was that they were trying to make so much snow that when you skied you couldn't see 10 feet in front of you. I have never experienced such terrible visibility. would have been okay if they had more trails open but there were just 2 or so"
