Recent reviews
Good 3.9 /5 from 84 reviews
I stayed in a small single room with its own bathroom. The bathroom was ok, a bit of mildew and old hairs here and there but overall clean enough. The bed was comfortable but the worst part was that the sheets had marks and a yellow stain (yuck). The best part was that it had a large balcony facing the intersection. The location is also quite central to many things.
I stayed here for 5 nights on a solo trip to Barcelona. The hostal is in a great location - a block from the Tetuan metro stop, 15 min walk to Sagrada Familia, easy access to everything but with a more neighborhood feel than staying in the downtown core. I frequently came back late at night by myself and felt quite safe. Alex at the front desk was extremely helpful and friendly upon my arrival, and the cleaning staff were also quite helpful. Very reasonable price, as well. The room was plenty large enough, had a full bathroom ensuite and a closet for unpacking. No desk, but that was fine with me. I recommend getting a room with a balcony - mine was small and I didn't spend a lot of time on it, but getting to open the doors for light and air was wonderful. Bed was comfortable, and the room was very clean. I've seen many reviews that mention thin walls but I didn't have any problem with noise. Next time I'm in Barcelona I will definitely book here again!
We were looking for a place on a budget that was still close to the sights (we easily walked to the Sagrada in the morning), and were nervous about the designation of hostel. But we were very impressed with the cleanliness and privacy of our double room. We were on the second floor in the room one in from the corner which had a huge closed in balcony that protruded out over the street. It was the perfect place to sip coffee and watch the world go by. Air conditioning was a big plus in the summer heat. Staff was a little hard to find as there are a number of rooms on different floors accessed by a common building stairway and tiny lift, but once you got a hold of someone they were super friendly and helpful. Highly recommend!
It's a okay hotel to stay just a couple days. Nice staff
This place was very convient to most sights. Hotel staff were very friendly and helpful. They also spoke english. Extremely great price, especially if you are willing to stay in a windowless bedroom ( there is a small window in the bathroom.

Topic Overview
Problems with sexual function in people with Parkinson's disease are common.
- Muscle stiffness and movement may make sexual activity difficult.
- Depression or anxiety may result in a loss of interest in sex or, in men, erection problems. These often can be improved by treatment with medicine.
- Parkinson's disease can affect the nerves that control the sexual organs. This may cause difficulty in getting or maintaining an erection and delayed ejaculation in men. It can affect arousal in both men and women.
- Medicines used to treat Parkinson's disease or other conditions may affect sexual function.
If you are having problems with sexual function, talk to your doctor. He or she may be able to help you pinpoint what is causing the problem. Sometimes changes in medicine or exercise or treatment for depression may be all that is needed to solve these problems.

New VGA teaser hints that something Peace Walker this way comes
Yes, that Peace Walker. Do you know of any other Peace Walkers?
Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker may seem a little out of place in the company of, well, every major unannounced game release for the next 30 years, but a new VGA teaser's dropped a none-too-subtle hint that Big Boss isn't ducking out of the spotlight just yet.
The grand majority of the video is just Geoff Keighley waxing promotional about this weekend's show, but that all changes at the 0:48 mark when a Peace Walker logo temporarily engulfs the entire screen.
A potential PS3 port of the bite-sized sneaking/frequent kidnapping sim has been mentioned in the past, so a VGA announcement certainly isn't outside the realm of possibility. Check out the full teaser below.

I love all of the ladies (past and present!!) who have so willingly shared their fabulous-ness with us at I2S! Here's who's on board helping me out right now. 🙂
Guest Designer- Lisa Hidy
Hi, my name is Lisa Hidy, I live in Fort Worth Texas. I started scrapbooking soon after my son was born over 17 years ago. Like many I was introduced the subject at a home party. When my Mom was invited to one and didn't want to go she made me go along for the ride and encouraged me to buy something so she didn't feel obligated to! The rest is history! Now besides scrapbooking I love to make cards and most recently due to my fun loving scrappy friends at Inspired 2 Scrap I am also making pocket letters! I love talk radio, I'm a huge football fan, avid college basketball fan, lover of books, history and traveling. I love watching my son perform in his high school band (and soon college band as well!). I enjoy sharing all things papercrafting with others who share my passion so about 3 years ago I started a challenge blog with a friend called Sketch N Scrap (http://sketchnscrap.blogspot.com). About two years ago I also started a card ministry at my church to help support our women's ministry outreach for a women's shelter. I hope you will stop by my personal blog My Creative Endeavors (http://createdbylisa.blogspot.com) and say hi, I'd love to hear from you!
Our Digital Guru-
My grandmother introduced me to memory keeping years before I found the craft of scrapbooking. Even though she's been gone for well over a decade, I can vividly picture her living room closet shelf, filled with photo books, all neatly labeled and chronologically ordered. I began as a paper scrapper, and I still have lots of paper scrapping projects to do, but for the last few years, I've been using CM's Storybook program for digital scrapping. The great thing about using Stacey's sketches digitally is that it is so easy to reuse them in many projects! Once you have a digital template, it's a simple matter to fill in with papers and photos. Just like paper scrapping, you can easily make the sketch your own, and get a whole new look each and every time you use it! I love working with Stacey's sketch templates, and I can't wait to see everyone's work during class!
And a little bit about me-
Stacey Lokovic – Inspired to Scrap site owner
Hello everyone! I am a scrap-at-home-mama (oops, stay-at-home! 😉 ) to three little ones ages 9, 7 and 5. Needless to say, they keep me very busy between school, sports and other activities-not to mention just by being themselves! My husband, Jeremy, has always been very supportive of everything I do, including scrapbooking. Besides scrapping, I love camping, exercising, reading, cooking, baking, sewing and working on all types of crafts.I have been scrapping for about 18 or so years but I have always been a collector of memories and photos. I love scrapping and finding new inspiration to keep it fresh. A couple of the main reasons I started Inspired to Scrap was first, to share encouragement and inspiration with my fellow scrappers and second, provide us all with a safe and supportive online home. 🙂
In college, I studied English and journalism. Then, I was a teacher for five years before my first child was born. I love being able to teach classes online about subjects I love through Inspired to Scrap.
One of my favorite ways to be inspired is to use sketches. I loved sketches from the moment I first tried them many years ago! I started creating my own sketches around 2007 and have been hooked ever since. I started out using my computer to create them but I felt limited by my computer knowledge so I switched to good old-fashioned hand creating them after about 35 digital sketches. Art was one of my favorite subjects in and out of school…and pencil drawing was my specialty. I love sitting with my ruler, notebook, a favorite pencil and getting to work…there's something wonderful about the act of drawing!
I am so thankful to everyone who is here at I2S to be inspired along with me! Each of you has a special place in my heart and I cherish all of the conversations, layouts, recipes and more we share. I hope you will continue to spend time here as we find new ways to be inspired to scrap together!

Clearly I could uninstall the agent from the server, but I do not want to take this drastic step.... is there some way to mark the server as "paused", "disabled" or whatever? The reason for this, is that the server is going through some major reconfiguration work and will be unstable for a period of time.

by Michael Brox
Before I begin, I would like to acknowledge the fact most county residents utilizing the Milwaukee County Transit System (MCTS) are respectful, hard working, God fearing citizens.
They use the bus system to get to work, shop, or visit friends.
I myself am an avid bus rider and have enjoyed many delightful and lively conversations with people on the bus.
This week, I'd like to give proper recognition to the outstanding men and women of the Amalgamated Transit Union (local 998) who work for, drive and maintain the MCTS.
I became a regular MCTS consumer about a year ago when my "hoopty" (old beat up car) broke down for the last time. I swore I would not stick another $500 into fixing it. From that point on, I decided to ride the bus. This proved to be a very good decision.
The county bus drivers are always kind and courteous. I, personally, have never heard a bus driver raise his or her voice, with the exception of asking a passenger to turn down the volume of their music down.
Furthermore, I have never heard a driver swear or cuss at anyone and they almost always have a kind or encouraging word to say despite the fact they may be having a terrible day. In my estimation, these people are truly heroes.
As I've campaigned for Milwaukee County Fifth District Supervisor, the bus has been my main source of transportation. I've talked with many bus drivers during my commutes and I have found them to be extremely intelligent, well versed in what's going on around the community, people oriented, as well as very passionate and professional about their work.
I think we are very fortunate to have these people behind the wheel, as well as servicing and cleaning the buses given the limited resources they have.
It's unfortunate when some individuals riding the buses choose to be disrespectful, loud, unruly and, on occasion, violent. I'm sure you have heard of the recent situations where drivers have been attacked and severely beaten by groups of cowardly thugs.
One such incident occurred this past June when county bus driver Donald R. Woodson was attacked by a group of hoodlums attempting to steal his bus transfers. Now you might think the individuals who attacked Mr. Woodson were young folks. Not necessarily. One of the assailants was 40 years old.
What was a terrible situation for Mr. Woodson got worse when he was suspended without pay (which amounted to $6,000) by the transit system because during the attack, he got out of his driver's seat (a violation of transit rules) to defend himself. I know what your thinking and, yeah, you're right!
Angela Walker, a bus driver, and Legislative Director for the local 998 recently stated " these punitive measures toward the driver sent the wrong message to the public and it's simply not fair. Public transit is a legitimate form of transportation and it should be respected as such."
During a recent conversation with Transit Union President Alan Simonis, he informed me the union's main concerns for its members are: Health and safety, schedules (enough time to safely cover the routes), and bathroom breaks.
Simonis added it was important for upper and mid-level managers to work with employees to improve working conditions. "It's better for management to seek advice from those who actually perform the work on a daily basis."
Let's all think twice before we say or do something that may be seen as an act of disrespect towards anyone, not just our county bus drivers. You might think that being loud and trying to be seen is cool. But its not.
If you would like to show your support for the local 998 transit join us for a Fundraiser for my candidacy for the 5th County Supervisory district.
The event will be Monday, December 19, at O'Brien's, 4928 W. Vliet Street, from 7pm-9pm. All are welcome. See you on the bus.

Nitrogen oxides (NOx) are one of the air pollutants that cause acid rain. Although utilization of catalysts is a typical established method of treatment to remove NOx, the catalyst is expensive so that the total cost of treatment is high. The efficient treatments using pulsed power, which utilize the pulse streamer discharges, have been studied. We have brought the nanosecond pulsed power to the NOx treatment. More efficient treatment is expected with the high electric fields with a nanosecond pulse width. In using the nanosecond pulsed power, the issue of design and modification of reactors configuration becomes important. Coaxial reactors consisting of wire-cylinder electrodes are adopted here and three types of electrical connecting methods between a generator and reactor chambers and gas tubing methods were investigated. The deposited energy density of 150 J/L yielded approximately 100% NO removal ratio for initial NO gas of 100 ppm. The three types of electrical connections were parallel, straight and serial. The parallel and straight connections yielded a higher removal ratio and efficiency in this experiment. Distribution of voltage in the reactors affects the removal ratio and efficiency since the production and development of streamer discharges depends of the amplitude of voltage. While propagating voltage pulses will decay in the reactors, reflections of voltage pulse at the open end of the reactors multiply the voltage distribution. Although impedance matching between the pulsed power generator and the reactors should be important, a multiplication of the transparent voltage pulse into the reactors by mismatching may improve the treatment.

Pain Pumps
Pain pumps are used to provide a continuous flow of a drug into the bloodstream to help ease chronic pain. Pumps are implanted in the body and are used for long-term control of a painful condition, often through the use of opioid medications, such as morphine. This provides a continuous, steady stream of the drug for the sufferer throughout a given day.

Home runs propel Zephyrs past 51s
Published: Saturday, August 21, 2010 at 6:01 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, August 21, 2010 at 12:03 a.m.
METAIRIE -- Scott Cousins led off the first and eighth innings with solo shots, as the New Orleans Zephyrs launched three home runs defeating the Las Vegas 51s 6-3 on Friday night, taking the first and last games of the four-game tilt.
On the second pitch of the bottom of the first inning, Cousins drove his 12th home run of the year, off Las Vegas starter Shawn Hill (1-1).
The Z's added to their lead in the bottom of the second, when Danny Richar led off the inning with his sixth long ball of the 2010 campaign.
Z's starter Wes Whisler cruised through the 51s lineup until the top of the sixth inning before getting Danny Perales to ground out to Richar.
Whisler improved to 2-6 on the year, allowing two hits and four walks while striking out three over six innings.
After recording the final out in the top of the inning, Richar delivered a two-out RBI single before being thrown out at second, scoring Mark Saccomanno from first.
Cousins delivered his second led off homer in the eighth inning, his 13th of the 2010 campaign.
Cameron Maybin followed Cousins with a single and scored after Make Lamb singled and relief pitcher Merkin Valdez committed a throwing error.
Mark Saccomanno followed Lamb by reaching on a throwing error by third baseman Brad Emaus, scoring Lamb from second.
Scott Strickland entered the game in the top of the ninth and immediately allowed a lead off homer to Aaron Mathews, his ninth home run of the season.
Raul Chavez singled, Al Quintana followed with a double, advancing Chavez to third and Mike McCoy walked, loading the bases.
Taylor Tankersley entered the game with none out and the bases load but retired Chris Lubanski, Jason Lane and Brad Emaus on three straight fly outs for his first save of the year for NOLA.
The Z's now embark on a 12-game roadtrip before returning home to Zephyr Field for the final four games of the season.
The Z's start the 12-game roadie with four games against Albuquerque at Isotopes Park. Righty Adalberto Mendez (5-3, 3.61) squares off against fellow righty Geoff Geary in game one.

Job assignments, positions and activities that programmers can engage in to learn, improve and perfect skills related to programming.
Two key attributes that professionals attain are their skill set and their experience with that skill set.
Experience is valuable in many aspects:
As a professional gains experience in using a skill, that professional improves their ability to use that specific skill, measure either by reducing the time tasks take, or increasing the quality of that task's output (or both). See Wikipedia's atricle on the Experience Curve Effect for more information.
Increased experience often results in better judgement about when to use skills, or which skills might be most appropriate in given situations.

WoW 3.2 Is Patching
Posted by Kaelten Aug 04, 2009 at 16:04 UTC
Just a friendly reminder that WoW 3.2 is out and patching.
We've had an announcement about the PTR Diff and there is also a good forum thread about it.
Quote from 3.2 API Changes Thread:
While I've not seen the offical patch notes yet, here are the ones from the PTR:

Curse Client 4.0 Sneak Peak (updated July 24)
Posted by ckknight Jul 25, 2009 at 03:04 UTC
The development team here at Curse has been hard at work on the Curse Client 4.0.
Crunch Gear was given a sneak peak at the newest alpha client, 4.0. It's been entirely rewritten to optimize performance, speed, and usability. Of course it's going to pack in some new features as well. It's only in Alpha so we can only share this screen shot of the updated UI.
I (Kaelten) also wanted to take the opportunity to post a screenshot of our upcoming mac client. Our mac users are important to us, and as a result most of my time has been monopolized by working on the new v4 Mac client. It's a completely native Cocoa app targeting 10.4 and will run on both intel and PPC macs. It's not as far along feature wise as the windows client, but again, I did want to make sure people know that it is actively being worked on.
For clarification the Windows one is the dark one, where the mac client is the silver one.
Mac Update 7/24
I just updated with an extra screenshot from today's alpha release. So please check it out. I hope you guys agree it's starting to come together. :)
Site Enhancements
Posted by Ackis Jul 23, 2009 at 14:50 UTC
Over the past month, there have been many enhancements to the site. Here's a quick list summarizing the major changes:
There's a few new changes coming down the pipe. There was a [[announcements:curse-client-4-0-sneak-peak|preview]] of the new Curse Client released a little while ago, plus there are a few other nifty features which I can't talk about now.

Experimental Projects
Posted by ckknight Jul 06, 2009 at 19:38 UTC
Hey beautiful people, ckknight here.
There has been some hub-bub about project approvals recently and one way we figured that we could help on the backend side of things is to introduce the concept of experimental projects. If you have a cool idea but nothing fleshed out, your project is best considered "experimental". This is especially true for libraries. Many of the best libraries out there have a lot of rehashing, discussing, even without much in the way of code. Previously, a lot of projects (especially libraries) were left in a limbo state where this should fill that gap.
You can flag your project as experimental when creating, or it may be flagged for you by an administrator while in the approval queue.
If you flag your project as experimental:
At any time, you may resubmit your project for approval to make it a non-experimental project.

Got an email the other day from the guys at Primal Blueprint... I will be in the next edition of Primal Blueprint! Yay!
My experience has been similar to Winterbike's post on the previous page... in that keeping an active lifestyle, having fun and eating good food (the primal way) goes a long way.
Personally I've...
So... I dug up some old "frightening" pictures of myself. I guess I was a bit nostalgic since I just had a birthday.
Looking back, it's pretty sad...
Thanks you!
Not really. Since my training is mostly centered around BJJ and Kickboxing I get plenty of MA specific conditioning there.
I did start running a bit more some weeks back. But that was not...
You may be right... I was always relatively active training in martial arts (which uses a lot of core muscles). I just could never lose the fat until I found my way into the Primal lifestyle last...
Thanks Twibble and Jenny!
Appreciate it.
Hi Mike,
You can get there! Just trust in the process and it will happen.
When I took the "before" picture I had started the process of weightloss (but not gone Primal yet) and had lost about...
Thanks. :)
By the way, read your cancer story. Good luck with the climb!
Here's an updated picture from my transformation... I've been Primal for over a year now and going strong!
Here's a progress photo from the past year since going Primal. Thought it would be appropriate since it's my birthday today. :)
Nope... no thunder thighs for me.
I really don't understand where I kept all that weight either... I'm sure a lot of it was subcutaneous fat (scary thought).
For me it took a couple of weeks. But I've heard from some that it can last a bit longer.
Just hang in there!
Thanks Everybody! I appreciate all of your support.
By the way, my story was featured on Mark's blog on Friday: http://www.marksdailyapple.com/there-are-no-limits-there-are-only-plateaus/
Hi guys and gals,
Some of you may have seen my thread on my weightloss here.
But I decided to share my "story" in a new thread... (with it being a new year and all).
So here it goes:
Thanks Lauren.
Much appreciated.
You'd think they'd all be primal right? Unfortunately that's not the case...
I've sent countless people to Mark's Daily Apple and dozens of people to buy the...
Well... I've been doing Martial Arts for most of my life (since I was about 6).
I completely switched my focus as far as Martial Arts in the past year, as I switched to a bit more 'functional'...
Thanks. :)
I workout in the late afternoons / evenings... so I eat something very small 2 hours before working out. I tried an actual meal a couple of hours before working out, but that didn't really work well...
Lamb chops (Greek style), salad (with some crumbles of Feta cheese), grilled mushrooms and artichokes. Had a couple of pieces of Trader Joe's 72% Dark Chocolate with Almonds for dessert. :)
Here's my latest progress picture:
7 Months of the Primal Lifestyle... still going strong. :)
PS - I guess I...

Rusty Kettle
So I have been practicing on my own with my BBQ and have finally started trying more than one type of food at once. Is it really possible to manage to compete as a one man team? None of my friends are interested at my age in BBQ other than eating everything I make lol. Seems like I am always in the old man hobbies as my wife calls them. 26 and cooking BBQ on my front porch like an old man lol. I just am frustrated as I know I can get a nice crispy chicken skin on my legs and well I am starting to run multiple kettle grills as smokers and it is well overwhelming to say the least. I decided to just grill pineapple while I did chicken to try and get a feel for running multiple grills at once. You know that way I can practice without breaking the budget until I get ready for next year. Just to get a feel for running multiple things at once. Anyways my chicken skin came out not right it was done according to meat thermometer but the skin was not crispy. I was a bit sad about this. I am really starting to think that without a real team of people for support that I will never be able to compete successfully. So I guess what I am asking is should I really start to try to form a team a year in advance of actually competing? How do you go about finding people when your friends and family have no interest in it? or should I just continue down the path of trying to eventually compete on my own? I really would like to meet people with an interest in BBQ like I have and actually get a real team rolling. I just don't know where to start. So how did you form your team? How did you go about meeting one another? Any advice on actually starting a team?

The excellent breakfast and service
We were missing facilities in the room to make tea/coffee
The breakfast was fine, room was ok, nice entry and restaurant
We found some old cheese in the fridge, there is no possibillity to make a cup of tea or coffee, staff was very strict / correct
Easy going hotel, friendly
The welcome has been warm and everything has been perfect all along our stay; the staff is always available for the customers... We were very pleased.
Friendly staff, good breakfast incl, very nice and clean room, good value for money, would go there again
Very effective and friendly staff. Very nice appartment with full kitchen and 2 bedrooms.
Matrasses are very soft
We booked a hotel room, hotel staff even offered us a spacious apartment with 2 bedrooms. The hotel located in a beautiful area with a lots of woods, close to both West Scheling Town and harbor, a bit far away from beach, but cycling to beach is also nice and interesting to do. The room is comfortable, clean and spacious, facilities is good. Breakfast is good. Hotel staff are very friendly and patient. Hereby we would like to thank the help by Walter working in reception, as well as other hotel staff. We enjoy staying the hotel. It's very suitable for staying of family with children.
The swimming poor is closed a bit early at 4:00 o'clock, can be later.
Helpful staff of pleasant manners, cozy rooms, convenient location. They even had bathrobes and slippers included into the room price that low.
The room was clean and stylish, the hotel very well located in the town but near the dunes.
A perfect place as a base for exploration of Terschelling; well-done decor and atmosphere; comfortable; exellent meals; efficient service; worth repeat visits.
Need for tea-making facilities in rooms.
A nice hotel with friendly people in a great environment just 100 meters from the harbour and a good location to start walking or cycling on the island
How well furnished and equipped the apartment was
It would have been nice if the bar had stayed open beyond 6pm
Our own sauna in the appartment
No, it was good.
I liked the quiteness and the situation of the hotel. The restaurant is also good.
It was amazing to hike in the rain and cold wind and then relax in the comfortable sauna and pool...
There is only one restaurant and very expensive, no casual restaurant is available and for a snack or a light meal you should walk for 2 hours (which is indeed very nice if its not raining) or take a taxi (30 euros return) or the bus (very cheap 2 euros return) which shows up every 1.5 hours and only till 18.30. But overall we didn't find this very annoying...
The tuinsuite is good value. The suite is large and has good furniture. The hammam shower is fabulous! The fireside place in the reception bar is a good place to relax. Breakfast is a nice buffet: there was actually real softboiled eggs, which is very rare.
There was no phone in the suite. It was rather cold in the room and no explanations as to how make it warmer. The bubble bath was also without any user manual and it was not easy to get it going; i still wonder if it was working properly
Perfect hotel. Staff very helpfully to show directions. They don't offer a la carte service for dinner to keep the prices doen, but the food is excellent. A sit at the bar is nice where you can make lovely contacts.
Here's why:

Using the Visual Editor, it would be super great to be able to highlight a portion of one paragraph, click on a format painter icon, then click on another paragraph to copy over all the formatting from the former. Even if you have to highlight the entire paragraph not just locate the cursor in it.
I thought the paintbrush TinyMce button did that, but it is a "messy code cleaner".

Headed to Vermont tomorrow evening to hunt the whitetail opener with my Dad. Only going to be there 3 days, but it's good to be out there with him any chance I get.
It's been 10 years since I got a deer, so first legal critter will get a 30-30 between the ribs, hopefully!
I'll update from the woods if I get a chance.

Home tour digs deep into Mesa's past
For 15 bucks a couple of Saturdays from now, you can can lose yourself in Mesa's past.
In doing that, you can muse on what forced Mesa's first inhabitants to leave this place some six centuries ago, the strange fruits of racism and the mind-set of Mesa's first suburbanites — who also, perhaps not coincidentally, were among Mesa's first NIMBYs.
Or, you can just look at a bunch of old houses.
Photos: Mesa home tour | Alston House | Queen Creek preservation
Whatever your fancy, the Mesa Historical Museum's annual historic-home tour on Jan. 26 will offer its deepest look yet at the city's roots.
"It's a really different tour this year ... a very big tour," said Lisa Anderson, director of the Mesa Historical Museum, for which the tour is a fundraiser.
"The greatest value of this tour is we have, over 13 years, created an awareness of Mesa's heritage and Mesa's role in creating the larger Valley," Anderson said. "People who lived in these homes, some of these businesses, the schools had a significant impact not just on Mesa but the entire Valley."
The self-guided tour is expanding to include several non-home sites, including the 120-year-old downtown campus of the First United Methodist Church.
Home tour details
When: 10 a.m.-4 p.m. Jan. 26.
Includes: Evergreen district, Mesa Historical Museum, Mesa Grande ruins, Alston House and other sites.
Tickets: $15, can be purchased at www.mesamuseum.org, in person at the historical museum or on the day of the event, with cash only, at Sixth Street and Robson in the Evergreen district.
Museum site: The historical museum's main campus is at 2345 N. Horne St.
You should know: There will be printed material and docents at the various stops, but the tour is self-guided. Much of it is walkable.
Information: www.mesamuseum.org, 480-835-7358.
Here's a look at some of the home tour highlights:

I am using a shell script to automate the deployment of my website. I now want to push the code of this site onto GitHub, and now I am facing the problem that my login details will be publicly accessible if I push the deploy script too. Is there any way of changing or leaving out the file when I push to GitHub? I would still like to keep it under version control.
Have you considered keeping login information in a separate non versioned file?

What can I say about Tuscany? The best Italian region. A little Eden. Tuscany is probably the best known region of Italy, due to its beauty and many places to visit. It is also very appreciated for its weather conditions.
Lucca is awonderful location to discover all Tuscany as it is very close to the most famous beach of forte dei Marmi, 50 minutes from Florence, 30 minutes from Pisa, and 1 hour from Abetone skiing mountain.Lucca is one of the best Tuscan cities not as famous as Florence, Siena or Pisa but it is not as crowded with tourism... Lucca is completely surrounded by great walls and every corner of the city is full of history and characteristics.

Queen Latifah is the Empress of the Blues
A lover of music, history and culture, film biographies or the biopic, have long been a favorite of mine. While there are a plethora of stories to be told about people of latter day, I've always been fascinated about the journey of people that made their mark on the world before I was born, or made an impression on me early on.
FUNK Ad(d)s Up 2 $ – Part 5 / Exploiting "The King of Pop"
Five years ago at the inception of this Funkalicious blog, I talked about the value and use of FUNK in advertising. My intent was to show how influential FUNK still is today, although the epitome of the essence of FUNK, was 40 years ago.
The Inevitable Eminent Legalization of Cannabis
On Monday, July 7th, Governor Andrew Cuomo signed the Compassionate Care Act. This action made the state of New York the 23rd in the union to legalize medicinal marijuana. Although the stamp of approval is restricted to non-smokable forms via pills, oils, or vapors, the legalization of cannabis across America's 50 states continues.
I didn't write a tribute or an obituary immediately after he died. Not that much time has passed in the greater scheme of things, but from the perspective of doing a news story or covering a current event, hence why this is a blog. Phillip was a Funkin' good mutherFunkin' actor, a thespian, a true artist… right down to the way he thought, his thought process.
The first year I started this blog, I wrote a poem for Mothers http://museumofuncutfunk.com/2009/05/20/funky-mothers-day/. I sent it out to all my friends that are moms via e-mail and made it my sixth blog installment. Earlier this week, an old friend of mine lost his dad, and another reminded me that Father's Day was this Sunday. So I took time out to write a little something, in hopes it will allow "My Fellow Fathers" to have a better Monday.
FUNKY DIVAS SHELIA & CHAKA/ PATTI LaBELLE FUNKS UP BROADWAY!
Patti LaBelle is back on Broadway this month! Appearing in the stage production of "After Midnight," she fills in where Vanessa Williams, Toni Braxton and Fantasia have all taken bows, opposite Dule Hill http://museumofuncutfunk.com/2014/02/25/vanessa-williams-funks-up-broadway-again/. Her run goes through June 29th at the Brooks Atkinson Theatre.
An Open Letter to D'Angelo – insideplaya
Recently my friend Gary Harris, who happens to be a former EMI A&R exec, has been criticized and bashed by several fans and other outlets on the web. One who introduced me to the music of D'Angelo back in 1992 prior to it's release while I was at WBLS, he wrote an open letter to the artist, expressing a personal point of view.
Music Favorites (so far) for 2014
The year is half-way over as summer is upon us. The first five months flew by to me, but since 2012, my thinking has been that 2013 & 14 are merely set-up and transitional for 2015. I don't even know why I've thought that way, "it's just a feeling I've got." I personally moved to Boston this year and graduated from college last year, so perhaps it was just the transitions of my life that I foresaw.
Earlier this year, I had to put a friend up on the meaning of posthumous — I forget what I was referencing. According to Webster's it means: happening, done, or published after someone's death; born after the death of the father; published after the death of the author; and/ or following or occurring after death. For friends and fans of a music artist, posthumous is generally a dirty and undesirable word.
There's a lot of new music out there! Now, all new music isn't necessarily good or FUNKY, but here's some that is… acknowledging "Ladies First", out of the world of hip-hop, is Amethyst Amelia Kelly, better known by her stage name Iggy Azalea. An Australian recording artist and model from Mullumbimby, New South Wales, she's got "It."
The New AIR-Jordans/ The Death of "DETOX"
Dr. Dre is about to get PAID! As the hoopla of Solange assaulting Jay-Z dies down, the glory of the first billionaire rap star is the talk of the town. Apple's no dummy, they see kids – their employees – wearing Beats as opposed to the ear bugs they provide for their customers.
Oscar Diversity: The WIN – WIN!!! A Funky Prophecy
Last night was a historical one for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS). Headed by Cheryl Boone Isaacs, the first African-American to hold the position, diversity was exemplary at the Oscars. Hosted by the Fabulous Ellen DeGeneres, the list of winners and nominees was multi-cultural as well as valid, in that they made poignant statements regarding sexual; age; gender; class; and racial discrimination. This was the best thing about the winners and nominees of this year's ceremony.
Taco Bell is tired of Micky-D's raking in all that breakfast dough. So they've decided to add breakfast food to their menu!!! While I'm sure there are several that are excited about a new fast food breakfast option, the stuff they'll be selling, is not necessarily nutritious. I'll let the menu speak for itself…
Vanessa Williams is headed to Broadway for the fifth time! On April 1st, she'll begin her run with the production "After Midnight." Williams made her Broadway debut starring in "Kiss of the Spider Woman" in 1994. Having seen the Oscar award winning film, there was no way I was going to miss her in that production, she was phenomenal.
"GET ON UP" – The James Brown Movie
Chadwick Boseman, the star of the movie "42" based on the life of Jackie Robinson, has taken on the role of James Brown for the biopic "Get On Up." The film chronicles Brown's life from poverty to his rise to mega success, as he became one of the most influential musicians in history. World renown as "The Godfather of Soul", Brown is unequivocally "The Pioneer of FUNK."
Over the years, millions of people and the NAACP have taken offense to the lack of a black presence in Hollywood and films produced there. Last night at the NAACP Awards, Directors Guild of America (DGA) President Paris Barclay and the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) chief Cheryl Boone Isaacs, were inducted into the NAACP Hall of Fame at the organization's 45th annual Image Awards ceremony.
If you haven't heard yet, Lil' Kim is pregnant. A fan more so of her presence in hip-hop than her music, I met Lil Kim when she was promoting her first album "Hard Core." At four feet and eleven inches and chocolate brown skin, her FUNKY reputation had preceded her. The reserved young lady I met, was not the wild child I expected.
I believe the best Valentine's Day gift is not the giving of cards and chocolates, but expressions of communication and clear thoughts. Like every year since we've been together, that was the exchange of gifts that my wife and I shared yesterday.
THE FUNKY R&B DUO: Toni Braxton & Babyface
I never heard an R&B duet that I didn't like. Over the years there have been hundreds of performances, but the R&B duo as a musical entity, has been limited. Jill Scott and Anthony Hamilton are the male and female who have done it right most recently with the song "So In Love," from Scott's CD "The Light of the Sun." This was a track that no true program director in the genre of Urban music could deny — they did the damn thing.
A Few Words on the FUNKY Youths of Today
In general, I tend to be inspired by those younger than myself. Sometimes there are youths that inspire me from a backwards place.

I am definitely not a writer, but after a week of thinking about how hard times are with gas and groceries being so high and jobs so hard to find, it was put on my heart to write how thankful I am for my job.
I live within three miles of my workplace, so it takes very little gas to get there and it's not an ordinary workplace. The place I work is Campbellsville Apparel. It is a little plant with about 200 employees. It opened in 1999 and has had its ups and downs. Being laid off most of 2007, people were getting worried about our jobs.

The SEC is done beating up on itself and is set to compete for its seventh straight national title. Alabama is king of the league (again), and here's what we learned from Saturday:
1. Alabama's offensive line is indeed the best: Any reservations about Alabama's offensive line were eliminated after such a dominating performance Saturday. When it came to stopping the run and wearing down Georgia's front, Alabama's line, which is the nation's most NFL-ready line out there, did its job. The Tide rushed for an SEC championship-record 350 yards, and watched as running backs Eddie Lacy and T.J. Yeldon both eclipsed the 150-yard rushing mark against the Bulldogs. Together, Lacy and Yeldon averaged 7.4 yards per carry. Quarterback AJ McCarron was sacked three times but was routinely given enough time to make some big throws against the Dawgs. This line seemed to gain energy as the game went on, and hats off to center Barrett Jones, who basically played on one leg for the entire second half with his foot injury.
2. History won't be kind to this Georgia team: Despite Georgia winning 11 games and being literally a play away from playing in the national championship game, history won't be on this team's side. With the 32-28 loss to Alabama inside the Georgia Dome, the Bulldogs fell to 1-2 against ranked opponents, have lost 10 of 13 games to ranked opponents and have lost back-to-back SEC championship games. With all that NFL talent on defense, the Dawgs were gashed for 350 rushing yards and surrendered 512 total yards of offense to the Tide. Quarterback Aaron Murray and coach Mark Richt will no doubt receive even more criticism when it comes to winning the big game. This team went back and forth with one of the nation's best teams, and was a tipped pass away from being praised as one of Georgia's best of all time. Murray will take heat for the loss, but he was very good for most of the night and didn't make the same mistakes that had plagued him on the big stage. And Richt made some gutsy calls, including that fake punt, to try to win the game. People will harp on his decision not to spike at the end, but this season has been a true success, and the Dawgs deserve consideration for the SEC's other BCS spot.
3. We are set for a historical matchup: The Discover BCS National Championship will feature a matchup that has historical significance when Alabama and Notre Dame face each other in Miami, as two of the most storied programs in college football will play for it all. Alabama is going for its second straight national title and its third in four years. These two had some pretty memorable games in the 1970s and '80s, but Notre Dame holds a 5-1 edge in the series. This game also pits two of the nation's top defenses against each other, with both ranking within the top six in total defense. However, Alabama's defense needs some obvious work. In recent weeks, including Saturday, offenses have had real success throwing on Alabama. While Notre Dame doesn't own one of the flashiest passing games, 40-plus days to prepare to try to exploit those holes should help the Irish. However, 40-plus days to clean things up in Alabama's defense will help the Tide. Nick Saban and defensive coordinator Kirby Smart should have things looking much prettier down on South Beach.

Gene Parker sends along this tale of "hell and chemistry" (which many of us thought were synonymous).
A University of Washington professor, on a mid-term, gave a bonus question and was so impressed with one answer that he shared it with colleagues on the Internet.
The question:Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?
Most students answered using Boyle's Law, which states that gas cools off when it expands, and heats up when it is compressed.
But one student wrote:
"First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate that souls are moving into Hell and the rate they are leaving.
"I think we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Some of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell.
"Since there are more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.
"With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.
"This gives two possibilities:
"1) If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.
"2) Of course, if Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.
"So, which is it?
"If we accept the postulate given to me by Ms. Teresa Banyan during my freshman year that '...it will be a cold day in Hell before I give you my number' and take into account the fact that I have still not succeeded in acquiring her number, then 2 cannot be true and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and will not freeze."
The student got the only A in the class.

I have a static page for my homepage. The page that lists all the blogs posts doesn't update (showing the latest post) unless I clear my cache.
I understand I can set the expiration to everyday, but I only post once a week to that seems excessive.
So, I wanted to know if there is a way to make so that page doesn't cache. I remember the older version had a place for that. I like the new version, but it's very techie and I'm scared of screwing something up.

Are you wondering what the team is up to right now? Well, along with many other teams in the Developer Division, we are feverishly working to bring you our next Beta. We've been in what we call "Ask Mode" for four weeks now and have only taken around 65 fixes in that time. We still have 50-100 bugs that we would like to fix before we ship the Beta, but we are near the point where the overhead of Ask Mode is limiting our ability to do work for the product in whole. Ask Mode is the point where teams have to "ask" to make changes - even bug fixes - to the product. We are in shut down stabilization and we evaluate every change very closely to minimize the risk to this stabilization.
There are usually two stages to Ask Mode - product team level and division level. In the former the product team (so, the VC++ team) ultimately decides which bugs can get fixed; in the latter, our team has to ask approval at the division level to make changes. At both the product team and division levels, you have a group of people making the decisions that represents each area of the group, each function of the group and in some cases the managers for the group. The division group is basically made up of the division release team and product team reps. The product team reps are generally box PMs, test managers and some dev managers. Together we work on stabilizing together so we can eventually sign off and ship!
I'll say here that I owe you a post with an overview of the milestones that we use at the present time.
To get more specific about what our team is up to, I can tell you that we tend to see the product shut down in a sensible way - the "back-end," or, code-gen and tools team tends to shut down first, with the "front-end," or language compiler, not far behind. The libraries and IDE teams tend to stabilize after the base stops moving. We meet each morning for a team triage of Ask Mode issues and decide which fixes we want to take to the division triage in the afternoon. We discuss a lot of things: the customer scenario and how common we think it is, whether or not the problem is a regression, what root cause for the problem is, the code diff for the fix, the testing coverage, the risk of the fix and the impact of not taking the fix. All of this information together with a "bug bar" helps us make our decision. A bug bar is a list of criteria that describes the kinds of bugs we should be fixing at this point of the Beta cycle.
The test team is completing a full test pass (full meaning they run every test they have including manual test cases) to report a full status of quality. We track quality on several different metrics, and that is another post I will owe you (or maybe I'll revive the Five Testers from VC to tell you about the metrics!).
