Me and the Missus are heading to the Big Apple next week and are on the look out for cool things to see and do.
Now we aren't looking for the typical box ticking tourist attractions that cost a lot but don't necessarily convey the true culture of a place. We are more keen on finding little unknown pockets of awesomeness that aren't in the guide books. Could be an amazing coffee shop, a back street dive bar, an old school board game store or the best street food place to get noodles outside of Asia.
Those are the sorts of things we love to experience whilst travelling and if any of you have any tips or little secrets that you are willing to give up to two complete NYC noobs then your advice will be welcomed whole heartedly and will make what is already destined to be an awesome trip, even more awesomer!

Recently i got a 1 star rating because the buyer didn't read the description where it said trapcode particular required.
Can we as the author not simply have the option to reply to a rating comment? If I saw that 1 star rating and then see an author's response to the tune of…
"sorry you didn't like this item, it does clearly state in the item description that particular is required etc."
I as the buyer would totally understand that this was a useless rating. Also as the author it would be very much appreciated if I could defend my work against the opinions of consumers who may have misunderstood the content or technical requirements of the item.
I am looking for an illustrator to help me out with a project starting early next week. The job will entail taking two photos, one of a landscape and one of an individual in an office setting (photos will be supplied) and creating comic book art styled versions of both.
The image style I am after is as shown in the (hopefully) attached images.
These two illustrations will need to be animated so creating the images in layers is crucial. This project is tight turnaround and I would require the illustrations to be created within 48 hours of me supplying the photos. A more detailed brief and an animation example can be supplied via email if you are interested.
Please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com if you would like to work with me on this project and provide a quote for creating both illustrations as well as links to any examples of previous work that are relevant to this job.
I know this is a massive cliche but this is genuinely a starter for many future projects. These two illustrations will be used in a video edit for one case study. The company this is for has in excess of 20 case studies that they will need visualising if this one proves successful with the board of directors.
Kind regards, Jameshttp://www.smudgethis.com
The answer to your 'why is Facebook better or worse' question is, to be honest… I don't know.
This whole process of leaving Facebook, be it on temporary basis or permanently, is purely an experiment to see if I can live without it. I don't know if twitter is better or just the same in another guise. @Creative you may very well be right, perhaps I'm the kind of person who needs it in my life, craves the attention of others and feeds off seeing the like counter on my opinion rise and rise. I would like to think that isn't the case but I'm not naive enough to think that I may be wrong.
I'm not knocking it, and I'm definitely not knocking those who use it. That wasn't the purpose of my original post. I was just keen to hear other people's opinions and experiences.
As for my comment on the family of 'facebookers' on the train. I do believe that was a fair observation of what is in my opinion the worst social side effect of Facebook (and any social media). It isn't the fact that people want to have their voice heard by the world, who doesn't, it's the fact that in that instance, the individuals sat around the table would rather communicate with a virtual device than their loved ones.
Maybe cutting off Facebook entirely from my life isn't the perfect solution but I am curious to know if it's possible and as mentioned before, I won't know if I don't try.
@Creattive your post is exactly why I enjoy posting in this forum and will continue to do so. It very often opens an intelligent debate with opinions on both sides with very valid opinions and intelligent insight.
Maybe I do like to express myself and start threads and post comments bla bla bla but I think it's ok for me and others to dislike a certain platform. Facebook and twitter are essentially the same thing but the way they are used is very very different and for that reason I have chosen to stop using the one I don't like.
@Creattive I totally agree and I admit to being guilty of this and it's another issue I am trying to wrap my head around. Can I leave Facebook but still continue using other 'social networks' such as forums and twitter without being a hypocrite?
Please like this comment and share with your friends.
I just got home via a 1hr train journey. On the table opposite was a family of four who spent the entire journey buried in their phones, occasionally piping up to say what someone they knew was doing or had commented or the one that I actually found annoying… that someone had liked their comment.
Is this now what I am doomed to, leading a life of mildly arrogant observation towards everyone who is buried so deep in a world of 'social' media that it actually annoys me? Is it better to be naively lost in a concept than viewing it from the outside with frustration and anger?
Or am I just turning into a grumpy old man? :/ (I did turn 30 years old last December).
So… I left yesterday. Only deactivated the account so if I find myself biting my nails down to the knuckle wanting desperately to know how 'old school friend number 8's kid is doing at play school' I can hop back on and pretend this whole episode never happened.
Not too many people arguing the case pro-facebook here. :/
Made this decision yesterday after returning from a bank holiday weekend away with my wonderful wife and seeing my Facebook feed full of people seemingly trying to one-up one another with their 'awesome' weekends.
Maybe I'm just turning into a grumpy old man but I am going old school, disconnecting from the social web and looking forward to learning of people's adventures via the classic form of conversation be it in person, over the phone Skype or preferably in a pub with a couple of beers.
Anybody else made this leap and how is it working out for you?
p.s. I am still going to be on twitter:
@smudgethis for the business and @notsmudgethis for my own personal stuff, although don't expect a huge amount of activity on here. This is kind of my social network life-line that may well be severed in the not too distant future.

Immigration, Gay Positions Seen Harming Texas GOP Outreach
The sweep by movement conservatives at this past weekend's Texas Republican Convention has energized Tea Party and social conservative groups like the Eagle Forum, but many Republicans are asking if the GOP went too far in some of its hard line platform stances, 1200 WOAI news reports.
The GOP, following a four hour debate, endorsed rigid enforcement of current marijuana laws, saying that even medical use of marijuana will lead to the use of harder drugs.
The 7,000 delegates rejected what has been called the Texas Plan of dealing with illegal immigration. That plan called for a 'guest worker' program which would allow some illegal immigrants to work openly in the state to provide workers needed by employers in the economically booming state. But the delegates rejected that guest worker option, and approved a platform which rejects any accommodation with illegal immigrants, calling it 'amnesty.' During a speech by Lieutenant Governor candidate Dan Patrick, delegates held up posters displaying fences, symbolizing their desire to secure the border and crack down on illegal immigration.
But it was a bizarre plank which endorses so called 'reparative therapy,' or 'pray the gay away,' which has gotten the most attention.
The plank specifically rejects any attempt by state lawmakers to outlaw the very controversial practice of using psychiatry to 'turn gays straight.' The practice has been outlawed for minors in New Jersey and California, but there is no effort to ban it in Texas.
Gregory Angelo, who heads the Log Cabin Republicans, an embattled gay GOP group, says the platform plank will push moderates and young people, many of whom are disillusioned with President Obama and the Democrats and are within reach of the Republican party's economic theories, away from the party.
"I do not feel that the language that is in the Texas GOP platform is doing the party any favors," Angelo said.
The 'reparative therapy' plank was pushed by the Texas Eagle Forum, a social conservative group.
Angelo says the practice has been denounced by every major medical group.
"The American Psychological Association, the American Medical Association, have all said that these types of therapies do more harm than good."

McQueen's troubled patron, Blow, committed suicide in 2007, and his mother, Joyce, died in February 2010.
The Joyce estate had settled with Shloss, but it was handed legal bills of a quarter of a million dollars.
His clarity of conviction prompts him to praise Flaubert, Henry James, and Joyce, though the praise is qualified.
At an underground party, Joyce introduced Peggy to her friend Abe Drexler (Charlie Hofheimer), a beatnik journalist.
Joyce had made even less headway with Ulysses, a work he had been planning since 1906.
Victor was vexed by the stranger's intrusion, but could not gainsay Mrs. Joyce.
"It'll cost you something to do that," said Mrs. Joyce cautiously.
Mr. Carlyle had got "Master Arthur" on his shoulder when Joyce entered.
Joyce was prepared to swear to every item of the indictment.
Mrs. Joyce would not allow herself to glance in its direction.
proper name, earlier Josse, Goce, etc., and originally used of both men and women. Of Celtic origin. Joycean, in reference to the fiction of Irish writer James Joyce (1882-1941) is attested from 1927.

PHOTO: Ciara offers us a look inside her baby nursery
Listen to Ciara on iHeartRadio
Ciara is counting down the days until she officially becomes a mom!
Capturing her growing belly on Instagram, Ciara posted a new shot on Tuesday of her calming, all-white nursery that is ready for her baby boy with fiance Future.
The caption of the photo read, "In Love With My @angelsonghome Gliding Chair, and My @BrattDecor Baby Crib For My Little Prince. This Is All Surreal. Everything About This Time And Process…Wow!!:)"
Weeks ago, the mom-to-be went shopping with BFF Kim Kardashian to West Hollywood's trendiest baby shop, Bel Bambini, where she stocked up on all the essentials for furnishing the nursery and to get ready for the arrival of her baby.
According to reports, Ciara and Future spent a whopping $20k on her animal-themed baby nursery. In March, the two reportedly picked up some items at LA's Petit Tresor and spent $1,800 on an 8-foot stuffed giraffe alone.
Looks like Future and Ciara are sparing no expense when it comes to their little prince!

IT'S OVER! K. Michelle splits with Lance Stephenson
Listen to K. Michelle on iHeartRadio
K. Michelle is back on the market!
Just days after fielding pregnancy rumors, the Love & Hip Hop star confirmed she is single after separating from boyfriend, Lance Stephenson.
The pair were rumored to be having trouble in paradise and she shared the bad news with fans via Twitter on Tuesday night.
I'm single. Ill explain later. I have to do what's best for me. ❤— K.Michelle (@kmichelle) October 2, 2013
If it doesn't make you smile, know when to walk away. There's only so much a heart can take. No one deserves to be lied to and cheated on.— K.Michelle (@kmichelle) October 2, 2013
If her tweets are true, its sounds like she has been cheated on again. Maybe her pain will help her belt out those power ballads from her new album, A Rebellious Soul.
Let's hope she doesn't lose too much sleep over the two timer. The sexy singer can probably have her pick of any guy she wants!

Korea Baseball Team So Bad Its 'Fans' Are Actual Robots
(NEWSER) – If you're a fan of the Hanwha Eagles, you can be a part of the crowd without even going to the game. That's thanks to the team's army of robots, who sit in the stadium and broadcast the game to viewers at home—all while cheering for the Eagles, Quartz reports, via CBS Sports. The fan, meanwhile, watches the game on a smartphone and controls the robot remotely. And if she wants her presence felt at the stadium, she can upload an image of her face onto the robot's head.

Brevard, N.C. - After three years, the time is now for seniors Lindsay Brendle, Holli Flippo and Anna Schlobohm, as the trio comprises the Tornados first four year graduating class of players who have spent their entire career in South Atlantic Conference play.
Coach Shannon Reid begins her fourth season with the Tornados women's basketball team as the Tornados look to return to the postseason after falling short of the 2011 Food Lion South Atlantic Conference tournament and returns four starters and 11 players from last years' squad.
The Tornados lost starting post player Amanda Whitaker to graduation, but return four key starters, including junior point guard Micheala Watkins and senior guard/forward Anna Schlobohm as the duo were named to the preseason All-SAC Second Team.
Watkins returns after becoming the first Brevard College women's basketball player to win a SAC statistical championship after leading the conference in steals per game with 2.68 per game, including a BC single game record with 10 steals on November 20th against St. Andrews.
Schlobohm was the key to the Tornados offense last season, as the rising senior played the sixth-man role under Coach Reid, providing instant offense when she walked on the court. A strong 5-8 guard, Schlobohm has the skills to create her own shot at will and added a career high 27 point game last season as she looks to continue to be the spark the BC offense needs this season.
Seniors Flippo and Brendle also plan on making an impact in their final season in Boshamer Gymnasium as all three have been influential in the program since day one when they stepped on campus. Flippo returns after having been the team's leading rebounder last season from the guard position as the 5-6 athlete from Kingston Springs, Tenn. possesses the basketball acumen and determination to bang down low, while also providing a dead-eye shot from the outside after connecting on 37 three-pointers last season.
Brendle added another dynamic to her skilled offensive set in the 2010-2011 season as she began to push the ball into the lane instead of settling for jump shots on the outside and the rising senior completed her most successful season after leading the Tornados with 11.9 points per game, connecting on a team high 42.9 percent of her field goal attempts. Brendle was also third on the team in rebounding and will look to continue to her growth as she takes on a larger role in the offense this season.
Juniors Asheley Watkins, Candice Fritz and Alyssa Cutshaw also return to provide experience to the Tornados depth chart.
Watkins, a defensive stopper and athletic slasher showcased both skills last season and cracked her way into the starting lineup and provides speed for Coach Reid in the lineup when matched with Micheala, while also running as the back-up point guard. Fritz showcased her skills early last season with a double-double and continues to work her way into developing into one of the top post players in the conference, while Cutshaw gives the Tornados dependability and stability in the offense and provides a left-handed stroke from the perimeter for Brevard.
Katelynne Poole returns after a redshirt season and is one of the best pure shooters on the court, leading the Tornados at the free throw line in her first season, and with a year under her belt, her confidence is running high as she returns to the BC lineup. Chezney McJunkin also comes back for her sophomore campaign and will give Brevard a change-of-pace at the point guard position when she steps on the court.
New faces will also play a key role for the Tornados in the 2011-2012 season as Brevard welcomes Lacey Singletary, Chantel Alford and Taylor Hiatt to the crowd.
Singletary is expected to step in and help provide a presence in the post for the Tornados, as the 6-1 athlete can contribute both offensively and defensively. Alford is also expected to make an impact in the post with her ability to score and rebound possessing a strong back to the basket game, while Hiatt's ability to defend, rebound, and score from different positions will allow her to make an immediate impact in the program.
The Tornados will begin their 2011-2012 campaign on the road on November 12th against Belmont Abbey.

March 16
Charleston, South Carolina
Q & A with the Bride:
What was the one thing about your venue that made you know it was the one?
It's hard to pick just one! It was the perfect size and feel for the small family wedding we wanted, and the location in Charleston allowed all our guests to explore during the weekend. Also, everyone who worked there was so helpful and friendly.
Which three details from your wedding were your favorites?
Cake pulls in cupcakes for the single girls, my grandfather's pocket watch on my bouquet, and the surprise magnum of champagne engraved with our names and the date.
If you could offer one piece of advice for other couples planning their wedding, what would it be?
Plan what makes you happy, but don't worry if things don't go exactly the way you planned. The "problems" make the best stories!
Give us the one moment in your wedding day you can't stop thinking about.
The one thing we can't stop thinking about is the beautiful song one of our family friends played for us at the reception. There wasn't a dry eye in the room!

Photo gallery: Chino & Ontario firefighters drill training in Chino
CHINO - First-responders are constantly risking their lives when they are faced with collapsed buildings, fires and explosions.
In a joint training drill, Chino Valley and Ontario fire departments' urban search-and-rescue units simulated real-life scenarios the teams could find themselves up against during a natural or man-made disaster.
The daylong training at Chino's old Fire Station 61 included about 50 members of the cities' rescue teams, who are also firefighters.
"A lot of times if we have to respond to an incident, we have to collaborate with other teams so it's good to know each other's capabilities," said Chino Valley Fire Capt. Carlos Skibar.
Electric saws and hammers made for a lot of noise throughout the day as firefighters constructed a number of temporary shoring inside and outside the building.
The techniques are used to create a safe zone for firefighters and would allow for the rescue and evacuation of trapped victims.
"It's basically making a shield for yourself before you enter the building," Skibar said.
A total of six shorings were constructed, and they all followed FEMA and the Army Corps of Engineers' guidelines for emergency shoring construction in a disaster.
These types of drills are done bi-annually and with surrounding cities, Skibar said.
The day-long training sessions were conducted on June 19.

NVIDIA, AMD Set to Square Off Once Again This Summer

The next codenames to remember: GT200 and RV770
After the
NVIDIA financial analyst call last week
, the company briefly hinted at its upcoming roadmap this year.
AMD's RV770 architecture, set to launch this summer, will be immediately followed by a new graphics architecture from NVIDIA, codenamed GT200. GeForce 9900, as it's been dubbed, is not simply a derivation of G92 like the current GeForce 9800 GX2 and GTX offerings.
NVIDIA has been extremely tight-lipped about GeForce 9900, as it overlaps considerably with its current high-end offerings. NVIDIA's latest flagship products,
the GeForce 9800 GTX and GeForce GX2 only made their debut last month
. Unlike the GeForce 9900, these cards were once again based on the G92 die -- nearly the same GPU used in the GeForce 8800 GT.
Original NVIDIA roadmaps put the GT200 launch in late Fall 2008. However internal memos sent out to board partners in early March detail that the GT200 processor has already been taped out. The same document alludes to the fact that the GT200 chip is very stable, and has been ready to ship for reference designs for several weeks already.
The company gave no reason for the tentative roll-in, but with AMD launching the successor to successful RV670 (Radeon 3850, 3870) this summer, it seems entirely plausible that NVIDIA anticipates another close race.
AMD partners claim Radeon RV770 will make its debut this summer under $300. NVIDIA's 9900 is currently scheduled as an ultra-high end adapter to be priced higher than the GeForce 9800 GX2 offerings, which retail for more than $500 today.
Channel partners indicate that the 9800 GTX and GX2 will begin phasing out next month in preparation for the GT200 launch. Both companies have made promises to show demonstrations of their next-gen cards at the Computex Taipei trade show on June 3, 2008.

Office of Small & Disadvantaged Business Utilization
Operation Boots to Business - From Service to Startup
April 4, 2013
The U.S. Small Business Administration (SBA) has partnered with the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs and the U.S. Department of Defense to launch an entrepreneurial training program for transitioning service members to help them become entrepreneurs and create jobs.
Operation Boots to Business: From Service to Startup is a national program which uses a multi-phased approach to introduce the fundamentals of small business ownership, as well as the SBA tools and resources available to them. Building on lessons learned from the Boots to Business pilot program, launched in 2012 with the U.S. Marine Corps, the SBA aims to ultimately provide entrepreneurship awareness and opt-in training nationwide to the 250,000 service members from all branches of the military that transition each year.

NWL notes: White speeds up to win
Canadians right-hander finding success with faster approach
By Patrick Brown / Special to MLB.com | August 17, 2012 7:42 AM ET
As it turned out, he didn't need more time. In fact, he needed to speed things up.
White has cut back on the time spent between batters, which in turn gives them less time to gather themselves. All of a sudden, hitters don't have time to step out of the box and make adjustments. Instead, another pitch is on the way before they know it.
"I was really trying to work on taking my time to make quality pitches," White said. "I realized that I don't have to take my time to make quality pitches."
The quicker approach has made an immediate impact on his game. In his six starts from June 27 through July 24, he allowed 25 earned runs while striking out 19 hitters. His last four starts have been a clear difference, as he's allowed just four earned runs while striking out 20.
His improvement comes at a perfect time for the Canadians, who are 14-9 in the second half and currently in first place in the West Division. As the defending champions, Vancouver aims to be the first team to win consecutive championships since Salem-Keizer did it in 2006 and 2007.
"Being here last year I got to see us win the championship, and it's hard to forget that feeling," White said. "There are a few guys who are on the team from last year. They know the feeling and just try to keep a level head about it."
After struggling out of the gate, White continued to work with Vancouver pitching coach Jim Czajkowski to try to overcome the adversity he was facing. That's when he sped up his pitching cadence, a change that may have given new life to his professional career.
He's continued to gradually improve, and though he admittedly would like to increase his velocity a bit more, he's happy with the progress he's made while working with the Canadians coaching staff.
"Jim is great in the fact that he tells it like it is," he said. "If you weren't good, he'll tell you. If you were great, he'll tell you the same."
A self-declared "workhorse," the 23-year-old continues to strive to move up in the Blue Jays organization, and the adversity he faced early in his career has helped him develop. Along the way, sometimes he just needs to stop and take it all in.
"I wake up every day, I go to work, I show up to a ball field and a game breaks out," White joked. "It's hard to beat that lifestyle and hard to beat calling that a job."
For the ladies: The Everett AquaSox are holding their first-ever Ladies' Night on Aug. 25. The $35 package includes a ticket to the game, meet and greet with the AquaSox, a T-shirt and a pregame barbecue. Ten dollars of each package will be donated to the Mary Kay Foundation. Tickets can be purchased on the AquaSox Web site.
Movin' on up: Texas Rangers first-round pick Joey Gallo was assigned to the Spokane Indians this week and appeared in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Yakima Bears. Gallo, who plays third base and was the 39th overall pick, set an Arizona League record with 18 home runs this season.
Who's hot? Who's not? Boise first baseman Daniel Vogelbach has six home runs and 12 RBIs in his last nine games. Tri-City right-hander Shane Broyles is 1-0 with 13 strikeouts, one earned run and two walks in his last 11 1/3 innings. Salem-Keizer righty Chris Johnson has allowed eight earned runs in his last four innings, while Everett AquaSox second baseman Jamodrick McGruder has hit .147 in his last nine games.
He said it: "I didn't get to see the last two innings, but obviously something really special happened today, and it's really cool that it was our pro club." --Everett AquaSox first baseman Taylor Ard to Spokane's Spokesman-Review regarding Felix Hernandez's perfect game.

OMG! WHAT Have They Done to Anna Kendrick's Neck?
Does Anna Kendrick's dress double as a neck brace?
-PJ Gach
Pitch Pefect's movie premiere in LA was a few days ago, and this photo of Anna Kendrick on the red carpet looks like an optical illusion. Where is her neck? What have they done to it?
Not only is the ensemble monochromatic to the point that it blends in so well with Anna's natural coloring (can we say "chameleon?") that it's beyond eerie. Where does the outfit end? Where does Anna begin? It appears that Anna's head is floating over it. Or she's misplaced her neck.
Read Lindsay Long Creates Eco-Friendly Salmon Skin Pieces You'll Adore!
Then there's Anna's stare that's also odd. Could she have spotted something strange….like a vampire or werewolf in the crowd? Bettys aren't permieres supposed to be a happy event?
Could we possibly be off-base? Does this outfit showcase Anna perfectly? Do you think she looks amazing? Or should Anna be banned from wearing this shade forever?
Tell us!

Britney Spears confirms 'massive' Las Vegas residency
Listen to Britney Spears on iHeartRadio
Britney Spears is confirming months of rumors about a possible show residency in Las Vegas. The pop superstar tells "Shape" magazine she has been shaping up for the event, which she says will be "a massive party from start to finish."
Spears reveals a workout regimen that includes 90 minutes of yoga twice a week and lots of hour-long cardio sessions with her trainer.
The Vegas confirmation comes months after Spears let slip that she was in negotiations to headline an extended concert series shortly after she vacated her judge's seat on "The X Factor."
As yet, no official announcement has been made about where Britney's Vegas show will be held.

By Jessi Loerch Herald writer
I went to Thai Bistro for the pumpkin curry, after I heard a glowing review of its culinary charms.
I love pumpkin, I love curry and I love Thai food. How could I resist? I was there within a day of hearing about it.
I ordered the curry without a second thought, but my husband spent much, much longer perusing the menu. Thai Bistro is a cozy little spot in Mill Creek. It's easy to linger over the menu.
While he examined the menu, my husband enjoyed a drink called the Raspberry Phuket Island ($8.75). The drink consisted of gin, rum, vodka, tequila, triple sec and raspberry puree.
I have no idea why he ordered it. It sounds rather intimidating, doesn't it? However, it was fabulously drinkable. It was one of those dangerous drinks that doesn't taste as strong as it is.
I ordered the fascinating Tom Yum martini ($8.75), which included rum, lemongrass, kaffir lime leaf, ginger and a chili garnish. The drink was surprisingly spicy. I loved it. My husband, however, wasn't impressed. It's probably not for everyone. I thought it was unusual and a fantastic pairing with the Thai food.
For an appetizer, we ordered one of our favorites, the do-it-yourself wraps ($10.95). In these wraps, you wrap up dried shrimp, ginger, coconut, peanuts and lime slices in lettuce leaves with sauce. Usually I've seen this served with spinach leaves, and I prefer it that way, although these were good as well. And fun.
We also had Tom Zapp ($10.95), an intensely flavored soup with beef, chili, shallot, galangal root, lemongrass, basil and tamarind juice. We asked for three stars, and it was quite hot. Even my steel-tongued husband admitted it was spicy.
We ate it slowly, however, and enjoyed it. While the spice was intense, it didn't overpower the soup. Interestingly, we had some of this soup left over, and the heat had mellowed by the next day.
For dinner I ordered, of course, the pumpkin red curry ($13.95). This was, as promised, the star of the meal. I ordered it with chicken. (As in most Thai restaurants, you can choose what protein you want with most dishes. Seafood and tofu also are available.)
The chicken was tender and soaked up the flavor of the curry. The dish was rich and luscious. The pumpkin was almost silky smooth, but not at all mushy. I ordered brown rice with it, and it was perfect.
My husband ordered the Prig Khing ($10.95), a nice mix of green beans and beef. The rich savory sauce was tasty and the green beans were perfectly cooked. In this case, 3 stars was the perfect amount of heat.
We really enjoyed our meal at Thai Bistro. The service was friendly, occasionally a bit too attentive, but not enough to be off-putting.
While it is a cozy place to eat it, I'm sure the food would make great take out.
And really, believe me on the pumpkin curry.

Imagine a streetcar or TRAX line running through Bountiful, Woods Cross and North Salt Lake that ties into the existing TRAX system near the EnergySolutions Arena in Salt Lake City.
Those communities and the Utah Transit Authority are taking a step toward making that a reality but probably far in the future, and after conversion from an initial, cheaper-to-build "bus rapid transit" (BRT) line, sort of a TRAX on rubber wheels.
Officials are working out details to join in a $450,000 study on whether to build such a line, where the alignment should be, whether it should be a streetcar, TRAX or BRT and what kind of economic impacts it could have. That "alternatives analysis," assisted by a $360,000 grant from the Federal Transit Administration, is expected to be completed next year.
It's not the first time the idea has been studied, and a 2010 study led to opposition further north in Centerville and Farmington. The new study will not include those areas.
"We never force these sorts of things down communities' throats. We only want to go where communities want to partner and embrace potential projects," said Matt Sibul, chief planning officer for UTA.
Sibul noted that long-range plans by the Wasatch Front Regional Council currently include a project that would initially be "bus rapid transit" from EnergySolutions Arena to North Salt Lake, along US-89 there and in Woods Cross to Main Street in Bountiful toward Centerville. Plans envision most of that to be built 20 to 30 years in the future, and later converting it into a rail project.
Sibul said the upcoming study will look at what transit modes would be best; "how it might potentially go from bus rapid transit to rail in the far future;" and would take "a fresh look at what the alignment might be, again working with the locals and addressing what the concerns might be."
It will also look at costs and potential economic impacts from various options. "There will be a robust level of public involvement," Sibul said.
UTA currently operates only one bus rapid transit project on 3500 South in West Valley City but is planning many more throughout the Wasatch Front. Such projects use bus-only lanes in roads. Tickets are sold before boarding at machines. Entry and exit is allowed at multiple bus doors. Stops are less frequent and farther apart than those for normal buses. Drivers may manipulate traffic signals somewhat to speed their journey.
While cheaper to build than TRAX, bus rapid transit can still get caught in traffic,tend to be slower and carry fewer people than rail.
Also, Davis County Commissioner Louenda Downs said bus stops may not attract as much new development around them as rail stops.
For example, Davis County Commission Chairman P. Bret Millburn, who is also vice chairman of the Wasatch Front Regional Council, notes the under-construction Sugar House streetcar project in Salt Lake City already attracted a projected half-billion dollars in new development near its stops something bus stops do not do.
What could delay a streetcar or TRAX and force longer use of the cheaper BRT is that Davis County has a lower sales tax rate for transit than does Salt Lake County, so less money is available for such projects.
For every $1 dollar spent in Davis County, the Utah Transit Authority now collects just over a half cent in sales tax 0.55 cents to be exact. In Salt Lake County, taxpayers have approved collecting just over two-thirds of a cent per dollar 0.68 cents.
With greater tax collections and bonding, Salt Lake County has seen TRAX extensions completed to West Valley City and Daybreak and projects underway to Draper, Salt Lake City International Airport, as well as the Sugar House streetcar.
That may also make a big difference in overall community development as regional planners seek to make mass transit stations the centers of new growth and want to cluster homes, work, play and shopping close to them. They say that would help handle the expected 65 percent population growth in the next 30 years with less traffic congestion and pollution.
"In order for Davis County to be a player," Millburn said, increasing the transit sales tax likely will likely have to be addressed "some time."
Downs said a few years ago voters in the county made it clear how they felt about a transit tax increase: "the two-letter word, 'No.'"
She said gauging support for such an increase is an option in the future. But maybe not too soon.
"We certainly don't want to raise any kind of a tax in this [slow economic] environment," she said. "But if the needs become very obvious, that could change."

Haskell programmers publish a great deal of research at conferences, which are also great places to meet and discuss Haskell and its future. The following is a list of some of the conferences at which Haskellers and their research appears.
For a calendar-like interface, see Andy Gill's page.
1 The Haskell Symposium
The Haskell Symposium is an annual symposium organized in affiliation with the International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP). The workshop is sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery (ACM) under the aegis of the ACM Special Interest Group on Programming Languages (SIGPLAN).
The purpose of the Haskell Symposium is to discuss experience with Haskell, and future developments for the language. The scope of the symposium includes all aspects of the design, semantics, theory, application, implementation, and teaching of Haskell.
2 The International Conference on Functional Programming (ICFP)
ICFP (International Conference on Functional Programming) is an annual programming language conference. It is sponsored by the Association for Computing Machinery under the aegis of the ACM Special Interest Group on Programming Languages (SIGPLAN), in association with Working Group 2.8 of the International Federation of Information Processing (IFIP).
3 Commercial Users of Functional Programming (CUFP)
The goal of CUFP is to build a community for users of functional programming languages and technology, be they using functional languages in their professional lives, in an open source project (other than implementation of functional languages), as a hobby, or any combination thereof. In short: anyone who uses functional programming as a means, but not an end
4 International Symposium on Functional and Logic Programming (FLOPS)
FLOPS is a forum for research on all issues concerning declarative programming, including functional programming and logic programming, and aims to promote cross-fertilization and integration between the two paradigms.
5 Principles of Programming Languages (POPL)
6 Programming Language Design and Implementation (PLDI)
7 Implementation of Functional Languages (IFL)
8 Practical Aspects of Declarative Languages (PADL)

The fabulous folks from Found Animals had a table at BlogPaws, and, needless to say, their new 6 Packs/9 Lives 2012 Calendar caught my eye! They created this unique calendar to promote cat adoption by busting out of the "crazy cat lady" stereotype. Found Animals, and these 14 calendar hunks, want everyone to know that cats make wonderful pets for any lifestyle and they encourage everyone to adopt a cat from their local animal shelter or rescue group.

DIAMOND BAR -- Quail Summit Elementary School teachers, staff members, parents, and students got their groove on during the second annual Zumba for a Cure.
The high-energy dance fundraiser supported finding a cure for breast cancer awareness recently at the Diamond Bar school.
Many of the dancers wore pink hair ribbons and sports gear for the all-out, nonstop, fitness fundraising dance party held from 3:30-4:30 p.m. on the blacktop behind the school.
"Zumba for the Cure - just do it!" shouted second-grade teacher Erin Ruhl while grooving to the beat.
Donations of $10 supported the Susan G. Komen "Fight Like a Girl" breast cancer awareness. The school also took orders for T-shirts through an event Facebook page.
Warehouse Fitness Instructor Fay Murphy skillfully led the group through the fast-paced dances. And if they didn't know the moves, that was OK. It wasn't a contest.
"Zumba is really about having fun," said Anna Chung, kindergarten teacher and event coordinator. "And as you can see we have people of all abilities here."
"Be brave. It's for a good cause!" said Noon Aide Amy Guerrero about the challenging and fun dance moves.
Food Services Worker Hilda Medina came out to the try dance craze for the very first time.
"I'm not a Zumba girl, I'm just here to support the breast cancer fundraiser," she said during a quick water break.
"Lots of parents and staff, and a few our friends from the Cardio House in Chino Hills came out to support us today," said Chung.
She said every dollar raised is so important for this cause because the school has parents and staff members who been touched by breast cancer,.
"We're doing today's fundraiser in honor of Quail Summit teacher and survivor Lori Aicard. It's a tribute for her victory. She's a teacher, a survivor and an inspiration," Chung said.

Hitting the books -- the legal books, that is -- could lead to the answers you seek. From birth certificates to bounty land warrants, there's a law behind just about every official record genealogists use. Laws governed how our ancestors went about petitioning for divorces, applying for naturalization, registering births and deaths, purchasing land, joining the military, and so forth. And the laws your ancestors lived by can give you insight into the historical and social framework of their lives, explain why counties and states have different records and record-keeping practices, and offer clues to where records are located. But you don't have to go to law school to reap these rewards -- just take this quick course in three types of old laws that affected your forebears.
Public affairs
Laws affecting the general population in a jurisdiction are called public statutes or acts. They can be state or federal, criminal or civil. Legislatures use them to create and regulate government offices and agencies -- and in the process, generate records that are useful to genealogists. For example, in November 1781, the General Assembly of the Commonwealth of Virginia passed "an Act for Ascertaining Certain Taxes and Duties, and for Establishing a Permanent Revenue." Part of this act stated:

Fox Comes Up With Yet Another Fake Controversy Involving Planned Parenthood
Fox News attacked a partnership between Planned Parenthood and a Los Angeles area high school for entering into a partnership that has reportedly reduced teen pregnancies without any significant parental objections.
As part of their continuing assault on Planned Parenthood, Fox News called the school's clinic, which is run by Planned Parenthood, "controversial" and promoted the objections of critics of the program. In his report on the program, Fox & Friends co-host Steve Doocy stated:
DOOCY: A controversial move in California: Some high schools there in California now allowing Planned Parenthood to set up shop at some high schools. They'll provide students with free birth control, counseling, and pregnancy tests at the high school. Critics say this should be done by parents and not through the school.
Almost everything about Doocy's short statement is wrong. According to the Los Angeles Times [1], one school, Roosevelt High School, is partnering with Planned Parenthood to staff a reproductive and primary health care clinic. But the article reported that, according to the local Planned Parenthood chapter, parents in the school want their children to have access to reproductive health care. From the article:
Planned Parenthood's Los Angeles executive director, Sue Dunlap, said Latino families generally want access to information and care. "We really don't experience the traditional narrative of angry parents not wanting access to reproductive care in the schools," she said. "It's really the opposite."
Moreover, there is a reason why students are given opportunities to make their own health care decisions instead of it only being "done by parents." Requiring parental consent for students to receive birth control at the clinic would actually be a violation of California law. According to a report [2] on the Los Angeles County government's website, in California, "a minor may receive birth control without parental consent." The same goes for health care related to a pregnancy. Furthermore, with regard to contraceptive and pregnancy treatment, "[t]he health care provider is not permitted to inform a parent or legal guardian without the minor's consent."
California's law protecting minors' privacy on these issues is in line with a statement by the American Academy of Pediatrics [3] on the issue, which discusses birth control and sexually transmitted diseases as areas in which "the boy's or girl's right to privacy supersedes the parent's right to know":
Since the 1970s, the U.S. Supreme Court and many state legislatures have expanded the rights of minors to make health-care decisions for themselves. These laws were enacted not to undermine parents' authority, but in recognition of the reality that harmony and open communication do not reign in every family. In cases where notifying a parent would pose an obstacle to an adolescent's receiving needed medical care, the boy's or girl's right to privacy supersedes the parent's right to know.
Examples include abortion, obtaining birth control and screening for the HIV virus, as well as treatment for AIDS and other sexually transmitted diseases; mental health problems; substance abuse; and rape, incest or sexual abuse. The majority of teenagers who test positive for HIV or who desire an abortion do tell their moms and dads. It's not surprising; they're usually scared and upset, and desperately want their parents' love and support. When kids choose to keep their condition a secret, it's frequently because they fear their parents will react violently, or throw them out of the house.
Finally, although Planned Parenthood's involvement is a more recent development, the existence of the clinic is nothing new. And when the clinic temporarily closed, there were reportedly a rash of positive pregnancy test, which slowed after the clinic re-opened. From the Times [1]:
The campus began offering contraception and counseling in 1997. But in 2006, a collaboration with a local hospital ended and the school no longer had the resources to provide free contraceptives. In 2008, [Sherry] Medrano [the nurse practitioner who runs the Roosevelt health clinic] said, she saw 32 positive pregnancy tests during her peak period between March 1 and June 1 -- around the time of spring break and prom.
Medrano then reached out to Planned Parenthood, which now provides a medical assistant, the contraceptives and the pregnancy and STDs testing. The organization bills Family PACT, a public program that provides family planning to low-income and uninsured California residents.
In 2009, Medrano said, she saw three pregnancies during the same time period. The numbers have since climbed to about 10. Only a few parents have complained about the program since it began, she said.
Fox repeatedly [4] attacks [5] Planned [6] Parenthood [7] with false claims and trumped up controversies, and this latest example is no different from the rest.

Now that you've had some fun doing basic recordings with Audacity, here is a guide to some of the more advanced functions.
If you look to the upper right of your Audacity interface, you'll see the "Tools" toolbar. I know… heck of a name for a toolbar, ain't it?
The first icon on the top row is your basic selection tool. I'm sure that any of you that have used a word processor, e-mail or an image processor know the drill. Click and drag to select a portion of the track to manipulate in some way.
The second icon gets a little weirder. This is the "envelope" tool. This allows you to adjust the volume of a specific section of track. Once you've clicked on the beginning and end of your section of track, what you'll get looks something like this (I've magnified this to 300 times the original size to make it easier to see):
Those four teeny white dots show your selection. By clicking and dragging anywhere within them, you can adjust the volume up or down. In this image, I've created several points where I've decreased the volume to one degree or other:
You can insert as many volume changes as you want.
The third one in the top row is the "Draw" tool. This allows you to adjust the volume on a specific sample. So, for instance, if your cat meows or your AC clicks on while you're recording, you can zoom the track image to its maximum level and turn that noise all the way down. If you hold "Ctrl" while you're doing this, it will limit your selection to the one sample. If you hold down "Alt" while you're clicking, it will allow you to "smooth" a section of audio.
The first one on the bottom row, the magnifying glass, is, of course, the "zoom" tool. Left-clicking zooms in, right-clicking zooms out. The middle mouse button restores it to the default zoom level. If you click and drag on a section, it creates a dotted section that you can zoom in or out as much as you want without effecting the rest of the image.
The next tool is the "Time Shift" tool. This allows you to drag a section of audio from one track to another, or to another point within the track. So, for instance, if you were recording a message for your girlfriend, and you realized that you recorded "I love you; I want you to move out", and then realized that you wanted "I love you" at the end, you just select the section of the image where you said "I love you" and drag it to the end of the message.
The last tool is the "Multi" tool. This gives you all five of the previous tools at once. The position of the mouse will give you a visual demonstration of which tool you're using. For instance, if you're in a section that can be zoomed, the magnifying glass with appear. If you're at the top or bottom line of the track, it displays the envelope arrows, etc.
Under that is the "Mixer" toolbar, which allows you to adjust the input and output volumes independently:
The last tool that we'll look at is the "Transcription" tool:
By clicking and dragging this left and right, you can speed up or slow down the audio on playback, so if you're trying to transcribe it, you can adjust it to a comfortable level for yourself.
The last advanced feature that I'll comment on here is the ability to move any toolbar to anyplace that's comfortable for you to use it. You do this by clicking on the serrated left edge (highlighted here in red):
In the next article, we'll talk about some cool things that you can do with Audacity, such as using special effects and mixing tracks.

Anderson, S.C. - The Tornados' comebacks came up short in both games of the doubleheader on Saturday against Anderson University as Brevard fell to the Trojans, 5-4 and 5-4.
Brevard falls to 4-6, 0-3 SAC, while Anderson improves to 9-5, 3-0 SAC.
Game One: Anderson 5, Brevard 4
Box Score
Brett Brinson and Randy O'Dell had two hits apiece and Champ Stuart hit a solo home run in the top of the ninth inning, but the Tornados' rally in the top of the ninth fell short as Brevard fell in the first game of the day, 5-4.
Anderson held a 5-1 lead heading into the eighth before the Tornados began their comeback. Brinson doubled down the left field line with one out and O'Dell brought him home with a base hit up the middle, cutting into the lead. O'Dell advanced to second on a balk and came around to score as Ethan Pressley reached on an error by the pitcher to put the score at 5-3, but that was it for Brevard in the eighth.
After BC relief pitcher Jacob Koontz retired the Trojans in the eighth, Champ Stuart greeted Anderson reliever J. Saxon with his first home run of the season to left field, bringing Brevard back within one. However, Saxon recovered to retire the side to preserve the save and give the Trojans the victory.
Brennan Daniels (1-1) took the loss, pitching six innings and allowing five runs, while Campbell received the win for Anderson, pitching five innings while striking out three.
Game Two: Anderson 5, Brevard 4
Box Score
Kameron Armacost came off the bench to drive in two RBIs and Derek Ham scored twice as the Tornados pushed runs across in both the sixth and the seventh, but Anderson starter Sanderson (2-1) held on for the complete game victory, scattering eight hits in the win.
Armacost doubled down the left field line in the top of the third to give the Tornados the 2-1 lead, scoring Patterson and Ham, but Anderson came back with a pair in the bottom half of the inning as May and Sanderson drove in runs to put the Trojans back up 3-2.
Down 5-2, Ham crossed the plate in the top of the sixth to cut into the lead, scoring on Merriken's double to right field and Brevard added another run in the seventh as Christian Christopoulos, but the comeback fell short as the Trojans closed out the weekend series with the 5-4 victory.
Brevard stays on the road, traveling to Bristol, Tenn. on Tuesday, February 22nd, as they take on King College. First pitch for the nine-inning contest against the Tornado is set for 1 p.m.

http://www.theguardian.com/environme...cientists-warnThe collapse of the Western Antarctica ice sheet is already under way and is unstoppable, two separate teams of scientists said on Monday.
The glaciers' retreat is being driven by climate change and is already causing sea-level rise at a much faster rate than scientists had anticipated.
The loss of the entire western Antarctica ice sheet could eventually cause up to 4 metres (13ft) of sea-level rise, devastating low-lying and coastal areas around the world. But the researchers said that even though such a rise could not be stopped, it is still several centuries off, and potentially up to 1,000 years away
wow, stuff like this seems short-sighted:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-27393805The government has unveiled proposals to limit the subsidies paid to large solar farms from next April.
Owners of installations bigger than 5 megawatts (MW) will have to compete with other renewables for financing.
The Department of Energy & Climate Change (Decc) says it wants to encourage the development of smaller scale and community energy production.
Campaigners have condemned the move, saying it will undermine investor confidence in the renewable sector.

Another great advantage is that with personalized ski caps and beanies advertising your company's name all over town, your employees can become a free marketing method for your business!

Kipnis named AL Player of the Week
(CLEVELAND) – Indians second baseman Jason Kipnis enjoyed a memorable month of June and he is being recognized for it again. On Monday afternoon Major League Baseball announced that Kipnis won the American League Player of the Week Award.
It is Kipnis' second career AL-Player of the Week honor and his second for the month of June when he and teammate Corey Kluber won the award on June 17.
Kipnis hit .478 this past week in seven games, while also racking up three home runs, four doubles, 10 RBIs and nine runs scored during his torrid stretch. The second-year second baseman for the Tribe hit over .400 for the month of June.
Despite an off day, the Indians now own a half-game lead over Detroit in the Central Division as the Blue Jays topped the Tigers Monday afternoon 8-3.
This is the first time since May 20 that the Indians have been in first place atop the AL-Central.

St. George Prostitution Ring Busted
St. George police have arrested four adults from Utah and Nevada -- as well as a 17 year old girl -- all accused of operating a prostitution ring, in Southern Utah.
Police say the sting operation was carried out, with help from the Washington County Sheriffs Department and Homeland Security.
Authorities say the case involved a minor, who was transported across state lines for prostitution.
Homeland Security is conducting a human trafficking investigation.
