2/5- Kulpmont Native Bob Chesney Tabbed as Football Head Coach
Worcester, Mass. (February 5) -- Assumption College has named Bob Chesney as its football head coach, as announced by Nick Smith, Assumption College director of athletics. Chesney succeeds Cory Bailey, who resigned in January to take a position at Coastal Carolina University.
"I am excited to welcome Bob Chesney to the Assumption College community and to our football program," said Smith. "He has proven that he can win on the football field and I expect that he will bring that success to Assumption as we strive for excellence on the field, in the classroom and in the community."
Chesney comes to Assumption from Salve Regina University, where he posted a 23-9 record during his three seasons as head coach. He coached 30 All-Conference selections, two All-Americans, 41 Academic All-Conference selections and one Academic All-American and his defense consistently ranked among the league and national leaders.
Most recently, Chesney guided his 2012 team to a 9-2 overall record and a perfect 5-0 mark at home. The Seahawks also advanced to the NEFC Championship Game after posting a 7-1 mark in league play.
In addition to the team's work on the field, the Seahawks were recognized as the Child and Family's Volunteers of the Year for their commitment to their foster home program and after-school homework club.
Prior to his arrival at Salve, Chesney worked as a member of the football staff at John Hopkins University in Baltimore, Md. from 2005-2010. He began his time there as a defensive assistant and special teams coach for four seasons before being promoted to associate head coach in 2009.
Chesney's other coaching experience includes time at King's College (Pa.), Delaware Valley College (Pa.) and Norwich University (Vt.).
A 2000 graduate of Dickinson College (Pa.), Chesney earned a Bachelor of Arts degree. At Dickinson, he was a four-year varsity letter winner and a two-time All-Centennial Conference selection in 1998 and 1999. He was also the 1997 recipient of the Vincent Correal MVP Award and served as the team captain in 1999.

Governor Andrew M. Cuomo today announced that the New York State Canal system is closed to navigation effective immediately.
"Travel along the canal system will be made far too dangerous by the winds and flooding that Hurricane Sandy will bring with it to New York," Governor Cuomo said. "This closure will protect boaters and allow public safety officials and first responders to continue to prepare for the storm's arrival."
Guard gates and lift bridges statewide will be maintained in a lowered position until further notice, to prevent structural damage from forecast high winds associated with Hurricane Sandy.
Water levels throughout the Canal system may change with little advance notice as the storm progresses.
The Canal Corporation began lowering water levels in many sections of the Canal system on Thursday, in anticipation of the storm.

Topic: Cinch CTL Binding Posted: Oct/22/2006 at 6:36pm |
Mike Says: Speed, convenience, value are the words K2 uses to describe the Cinch CTL Binding. The K2 Cinch Bindings combine different technologies, which create a unique binding. The Cinch CTL Bindings offer the support and adjustability of a traditional strap binding with the convenience of a rear entry binding (flow). K2 has seen great success with their Cinch bindings and continue to expand their line. Jump on band wagon and rock these bindings.

Great binding. Got a pair just 2 weeks ago and fell in luv. The rest of my family rides Flow but these rock and are much easier to get in and out of. Bad side - later that day tore my acl trying new tricks (no fault of the bindings though) guess i'll wait till next year for the full tryout.

what is the difference in the weight between the k2 cinch and the flow bindings?? I want to get a set, but I really cant decide because everyone I talk to says the pair they have on is better weather it is the k2 or the flow.

I'm gonna be like everyone else. I have the K2 and won't go back. I did ride flows for a season but to me found them harder to get into than the K2 since the top of the flow doesn't rise when the back is lowered. As far as weight I again go for the K2. Not that there is much difference but pack your board up a cliff a few times and you'll see the diff. Good luck - Go K2!

i have had a pretty great season riding with the cinch bindings. They are very supportive and very easy to get in and out of... I recommend giving them a go.

I like the Cinches better than the Flows I've tried (I liked Flows
better than anything else tho). My bud seems to think the Cinches are
harder to get into. I think they're about the same, but I like the pull
strap on the high back to help close them up. It's easier to reach when
I'm strappin' in on the lift.
I have some 08/09 CTS's and they were about 8oz heavier(that's for the pair) than my Flow Teams, which are lighter than most other Flow bindings. These were both size large. I've only had the CTS's a few months, after upgrading from some older CTL's I've had for about two seasons. No problems with any of the Cinches so far, where I'm always worried about losing hardware on the Flows due to past experience. It's been a while since I've had any problems with them, but I can't seem to forget about it. I guess you should be checking hardware on any binding every once in a while. The Cinches seem more robust and have given me no reason to worry since day one. |

I hate to revive this thread, but I have K2 Cinch CTS bindings. I love them personally, but the weight is killer. Although they are heavy, they feel like regular bindings generally. Responsive and don't feel anything like Flows. The drawback of putting the foot from the rear makes it difficult in steep areas, but not always. It takes some getting used to or you can always strap in like a normal binding. A negative is that the rachet system is slow and not smooth because it is designed more for rear entry. Aside form that I love them. Would i recommend them absolutely to anyone who wants to cruise around.
For the person that likes to hang around the park I don't recommend them because they are heavy. You would definitely be better off getting a lighter binding that wouldn't make you feel like its holding you down. I hope this answers the questions.

My bro went from Flow to Cinch and the Cinch was no cinch at all. It felt less responsive and it's harder to step in while riding. The Flow is heavier than the Cinch and the Cinch has pretty crappy ratchets. All in all, if you want easy in and out then go with Flow.
Sessions sucks hairy monkey balls, the end.

I'm not sure if the last change - adding USE_PERL5=yes - actually needs a PORTREVISION bump, since the port would simply not build if Perl 5 was not installed, but since it changes the package's dependency list, bump PORTREVISION anyway :)
Oops.. this port was missing a USE_PERL5 directive. Submitted by: lesi

We're Cutting the Cable TV Cord. We're Cord Cutters.
June 13, 2012 15 Comments
We've cancelled our cable TV. Not because of any high-minded desire to get ebil television out of our lives. We did it to save money.
With a third child we need a bigger house and we need to rearrange our finances to do that. That third child spent his first week in the NICU and we decided we wanted to pay off those medical bills sooner rather than later. My wife and I are also starting Dave Ramsey Financial Peace University to tighten up our finances. First class is this week.
Once we made our choice we didn't hesitate. We decided to cut the cable. Just as soon as "Game of Thrones" and "Mad Men" ended their seasons. Now the cable's gone as of sometime this afternoon ("the agent will be at your home between 10 and 4 because we run our cable company like a Swiss train") at least until the medical bills are paid off.
What we'll watch instead of cable TV
- We bought a $40 digital converter to watch over the air HD channels.
- We already have an Amazon Prime membership, so we can watch lots of free videos on the computers, on the Kindle Fire, or on the two flatscreen TVs that have PC/VGA inputs. Between free shipping, free video and free Kindle books Prime is a steal.
- Last night we connected a laptop to a 40″ TV with a VGA cable I had lying around and watched some Amazon Prime free video. The quality was outstanding.
- We're going to buy a Roku box for watching Amazon Prime and other video on TV. Compared to the laptop the Roku is smaller, doesn't tie up a laptop, doesn't require a TV with a PC input, and has a remote. Plus it has zillions of other features. I talked to Uncle last night and he loves his.
- The kids have a Wii and lots of DVDs. They love watching Amazon Prime videos on the Kindle Fire. We've already taught them the difference between the free Amazon Prime videos and the pay videos. Only once has one of the kids bought a pay video.
- We have hundreds of hours of TV shows and HD movies saved on the TiVo. If the spirit moves us we can use the TiVo to rent movies from Netflix and Amazon.
- I need to introduce the kids to Hulu.
- We can get free DVDs through the library, which has a good online catalog and reservation system. They have seasons 1-3 of Breaking Bad, which my wife and I have been meaning to watch.
So, yeah. Somehow I think we'll survive without cable. It's amazing how much free video is available in 2012 without a cable TV subscription.
Beyond that we hope to spend less time watching TV and more time walking, reading, taking pictures, and doing things like family game night that we've gotten away from.

No, do not add worms to your compost pile.
Confusion About Adding Worms to a Compost Pile
Worms are a common topic among home composters on the internet and elsewhere. Some species of worms are used in worm bins for a method called worm composting, vermicomposting or vermiculture. However, people who compost in piles may not be familiar with worm composting. This can lead to confusion since pile composters often see earthworms in their piles, so assume the worm discussions apply to piles. These worms are not necessary for composting in piles.
Heat of a Hot Batch Pile Kills Worms
The heat of a hot batch compost pile will kill any worms you add to the center of it. You will have wasted your money and destroyed perfectly nice worms. Vermiculture worms may or may not survive in the cooler, outer portions of a hot pile. At any rate, it is an unnecessary expense for pile composters.
Garden earthworms may live if you add them to a low-temperature section of the pile that is adequately moist, but your handling of them stresses them. Again, it is unnecessary to do so.
Build the Pile, and Decomposers Will Come
Nature's critters are really good at showing up right on time for dinner. Different decomposers are useful at each step of a pile's decomposition process. The specific decomposers required will vary based on (among other factors):
- pile temperature,
- contents of pile,
- moisture level of pile,
- what has already been eaten vs. what's left, and
- creatures already there that might serve as an additional food source.
The conditions of a particular pile may never be right for earthworms. If you add them anyway, they will either die or crawl away while the decomposers that showed up on their own continue to work on your pile.
You don't need to recruit decomposers for your pile; they will show up exactly when they are needed.

7 Responses to "Do I Need to Add Worms to My Compost Pile?"
Thanks for the info. I started a compost bin last year. I had considered adding worms, but did not. I thought I over stuffed my composter at the end of fall, but this spring, after leaving it alone over the winter, I have beautiful compost full of lovely worms. The decomposer came to do their work.
You know the answer to this question?
http://www.wiltedleaf.com/431/composting-leaves-in-trash-cans-where-do-the-worms-come-from -
If you have good microorganisms worms will find a way to get in there. The worms will replicate in the bin and probably got in there after a rain and the sides where wet and moist.
Thanks! The worms have done their work on my compost. I'm glad this batch stayed cold. It's alive!
This topic looks awesome! Keep on this great job and please upload more stuff like this!
Its all about patience, and making use of the right tools and supplies need for vermicomposting

Shaw Living Aligns with Artist Bob Timberlake
May 14, 2011
The launch took place during the High Point Furniture Market earlier this month.
Shaw described this new collection as a representation of "a celebration of a slower pace, a sense of history and an appreciation of nature."
For the past four-plus decades, Lexington, N.C.-based Timberlake has been known for his realistic painting style that draws its inspiration from "simplistic beauty found in everyday rural southern living," Shaw said.
The Bob Timberlake area rug collection will span machine-woven products made of Shaw's own EverTouch-branded nylon, which is recyclable, and are available in six sizes that range from 1-foot-10-inch-by-2-foot-9- inch to 9-foot-6-inch-by-12-foot- 10-inch. The suggested retail for a 5-foot-5-inch-by- 7-foot-9-inch is $739.
The style groups that make up the design portfolio are:
• Forest Ferns, a botanical look that features oversized fronds and foliage silhouetted and overlapping in a sophisticated color palette - dark green, dark brown, beige, and cranberry;
• Hearthside, which is inspired by the natural beauty and texture of timeworn and weathered wood, available in dark brown and beige;

The NEC was packed full of people on the hunt for something new, something different and something to help fill those Christmas stockings.
The show opened on Wednesday and offered the best in fine foods and drinks to guests from all over the UK. In between cooking competitions and presentations on the theatre stages, consumers were able to explore the sprawling alleyways of exquisite independent products. And that's where they found The Wild Geese Irish Whiskey* - at stand T64.
Although some familiar faces dropped by, who we met at the BBC Good Food Summer Show (in June), for many experiences what The Wild Geese had to offer was something new.
Our promoter, Kate, was an instant hit and her enthusiasm for The Wild Geese was shared by the people we met.
By Friday, the carpets were blocked out by the pulsating crowds - everyone excited to find something new.
Nick Wykees, our mixologist was also on hand to demonstrate the versatility of The Wild Geese, and mixed up some cocktails recipes which emphasised the Untamed nature of The Wild Geese Rare Irish Whiskey and The Wild Geese Golden Rum.
We hope you all enjoyed yourself at the BBC Good Food Show and be sure to stay in touch with The Wild Geese Collection. You can find more photos on our facebook page - http://www.facebook.com/thewildgeeseirishwhiskeycollection
We hope to see you all soon!
*In North America The Wild Geese Irish Whiskey is sold under the brand name 'The Wild Geese Irish Soldiers & Heroes'.

I love people like this. An artist understands all forms of art and accepts them, but knows they don't have to practice it. It takes a closed minded failure as an artist to sit there and insult others for their chosen styles.
Take your deconstructive criticism somewhere else.
I lurve my intuos 3 9x12.
An artist doesn't have to understand all forms of art but should not be so close-minded to say something isn't art.
I think.
I think. Should understand all forms of art are art? I dunno. Y'get the 'jist of it.
high five!
Great guide. I plan on purchasing a tablet now. Thanks!
Hey Daijitsu, is there some reason that my bamboo fun's drivers keep corrupting every week and forces me to use mouse mode?
Also it won't let me open the Pen Tablet Properties
I'm not quite sure... I don't own the Fun, so I can't say I know specifically what's wrong. I have to ask the obvious "Is your computer plugged in?" question, though: have you completely removed the driver and re-installed the latest version?
Any time!
I have to or I'm stuck in mouse mode
very peculiar...
ah, finally found the FAQ- http://www.wacom.com/faqs/knowledge_search.cfm?id=237
[release]Q. My tablet was working for a while, then it stopped working. Now it moves like a mouse not a tablet. What do I do?
A. The driver process has been interrupted or halted for some reason. A simple reboot should remedy the problem. If this is a recurring problem you may have a damaged preference file.
For a Windows computer do the following:
click on Start > Search (or find) > All Files and Folders
Type "tablet.dat" (no quotes) in the Search for Files and Folders field
Change the Look In Field to Local Hard drives and click search
Select the tablet.dat file in the Search Results Window and delete it by pressing the delete key on the keyboard.
Restart the computer.
For Macintosh Computer using OS 9 do the following:
Open the Mac HD
Open the System folder
Open the preferences folder
Open the Tablet Folder
Trash the tablet preferences.
Restart the computer.
NOTE: When restarting with a Serial tablet you will see a dialog box asking what tablet you have. Select Serial when prompted, then Search for the correct serial port.
For Mac OS X system do the following:
For a single user, delete the tablet preferences by first choosing your HOME folder from the GO menu. Then open your home LIBRARY folder. Within your home LIBRARY folder, open the PREFERENCES folder and delete the COM.WACOM.TABLETPREFERENCES file. Log out, then log back in. When the tablet driver loads it will create a new preference file using factory default settings.
For multiple users, delete all tablet preferences by first opening the main APPLICATIONS folder. Then open the TABLET folder and run the REMOVE TABLET utility. When the utility starts, click on the REMOVE ALL PREFERENCE FILES button. Log out, then log back in. When the tablet driver loads, it will create new preference files using factory default settings.
NOTE: Do not manually remove the WACOM TABLET.PREFPANE file from the main LIBRARY PREFERENCE PANES folder. This file is only to be removed when uninstalling the table driver, and then only when using the REMOVE TABLET utility.[/release]
What are people's opinions of the new bamboo fun?
The multi-touch is interesting, to say the least. I like it compared to the older bamboos, though the demo video was very... "you can do this now!" with everything that's been doable with everything else before.
I'm using Bamboo Fun, but not the most recent one. I think it's better than the one with touch enabled, my art school got those and I hate when I swipe my finger on it and it undoes something or zooms or jitters my pen.
But I guess I get that for not using the pen mode. A6 size, though, really small space to use in pen mode. ;_;
Could you put up a guide on preferred brushes to use with tablet with examples like which brush to use to get the crisp outline most people get when they draw in photoshop? (I can never achieve this, sadface.)
Whoa blast from the past. I forgot I had this is my subscribed threads.
Oh and by the way, I love this little thing (Bamboo Fun), I hope to make enough money at some point to get a medium-sized Intuos
I know, I just noticed the number of subscribed threads I have recently... just passed 69, and I cleaned up all the inactive ones barely a month ago :raise:
also, I keep referring people to this thread, as well as the camera one I wrote when need be. Good to keep the questions and stuff to one place, so more people will be likely to help out since they're subscribed/remember the thread/know it's a large thread instead of a random "TABLET??? HALP" thread so there will be better conversation.
are you like dumb or something if you're going into drawing anatomy you always start with the normal form and then stylize it to whatever you want.
how did this moron get moderator id make a 20x better mod than you
Still a bit expensive for me at the moment. I should be gettting a large sum of money in the summer though. But I was thinking of getting a laptop...... decisions decisions.......
So do you guys know of any good portable keyboard less tablet PCs out there that are any good?
I already own a cintiq and an i3 9x12, need something portable though.
Was thinkig of http://www.facepunch.com/showthread.php?t=922624 this, you guys know of anything better?
well, I'd say it's one hell of a touch tablet, and blows the ipad out of the water given everything you showed in your thread there. Given it doesn't seem to have a tablet pen, I wouldn't get it for sake of art, but it's a great piece as-it-is.
Well it does have a pen digitizer meaning it has pen support, but now there is talk of this product getting cancelled, so I ask if there are any other keyboardless tablet pcs worth getting out there?
I just found the In The News article, and your post in it. Sorry bout that.
I haven't looked into this kind of tablet myself, since I'm mostly one for pen tablets, but I'll keep an eye out.
Yeah I meant for these to be more pen based than touch.
Just lemme knw if u find anything,
I am thinking about getting into art again, but don't want to spend £130 for a tablet like I did last time, I'm a complete beginner and am wondering if this tablet would do what I want? Basic drawing, don't really need anything great just a starter really. I need to keep the price as cheap as possible ideally as I am on a tight budget, but have up to £40 to spend if it can be justified.
extremely cheap often spells trouble, I'd push your budget to its limit. Reading the reviews on the tablet you linked, you're getting what you pay for, though. It delivers quick, but the drivers are sketchy, compatibility with programs tends to be random, no tech support from the company. Also noted on every review was that it has an oddly short usb cable, so I hope you're not using it on a desktop computer (unless you have a USB hub/extension).
No gripes about the sensitivity, though, which I'm rather impressed with. It's ultimately up to you, but I'd try to aim for a bamboo tablet with the money you have. Looks like for just under 50 pounds you can get a nice bamboo pen tablet, which used to be 80. I know it's ten over your budget, but the extra squeeze is well worth the product overall.
USB cable length isn't an issue for me, I have a hub and extention cable. I'll research the drivers and if it seems to have decent compatability with Vista 64 bit. I would like the bamboo pen but my budget can't really be pushed, 40 is already pushing it to the limit.
i just purchased a second hand 1st generation bamboo thanks to this thread. it only set me back $65 AUD (about $55-$60 USD) i am planning on using it for my photography course, we have just started with layer masks and using the mouse for the drawing is driving me insane. did i get a good deal?
ebay link: http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI....d=606060568012
If you're on a budget you can buy a pack of printer paper(or a sketchbook if you're feeling fancy) and a box of pencils for under $10.
Do ho ho...
though that is a good point- people who are on a budget should probably spend the 30 bucks they have on some form of scanner to take in their pencil work.
Would require a little learning on how to use the pen tool to ink in photoshop, but that's not TOO bad.
Or you could always buy a box of crayons or colored pencils.
I have a Wacom Bamboo Pen & Touch, and I am using Windows 7.
What I am wondering about is what programs support pressure sensitivity?
I've seen Wacom's official list, however, even though the programs (Photoshop CS4, Flash say they support it themselves nothing happens when I push harder. (After I've enabled it)
I know there's nothing wrong with the board, because I can use it on MSNs drawing thingy and pressure actually works there, however, that program SUCKS if you want to draw serious stuff
(I am currently downloading the TVpaint Animation demo, it seems to support it, but then again, it said so about Photoshop too)
You have ArtRage, Painter, Paint Tool SAI.
SAI is free and ArtRage should be free, it comes with the tablet I think.
I had SAI before I bought the pad, but it doesn't seem to support pressure-sensitivity at all.
I haven't checked out the different settings though, will do it now
I got an Intuos 4 and I don't even fucking use it.
I don't even know why I have it. I don't do any art/drawing.
Rate me dumb.
Give it to me then, I would like to use it. :)
I don't do any art/drawing either, but since I got the board I've at least become a little better. If I keep going at this rate I'll draw basic comics in a year or so
Just got my fancy new Ergotron LX articulating wall mount with extension for my Wacom, I absolutely love it! I can move it with one hand, rotate it 360 degrees, and anywhere I move it it'll stick and not move on me. Totally worth it!
Oh, also, it'd be on but my DVI-I extension cable hasn't arrived yet.
Im thinking about buying a tablet, looks like Im gonna buy the Bamboo at my local store then. :D thanks for the thread.

Spooked by compliance concerns, survey finds; lack of time also cited Compliance concerns continue to keep most financial planners from using social networks such as LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook for professional purposes.
Only 45% of advisers and planners said they use social media for work, even though nearly three-quarters of them use the sites personally, according to a [CFP Board] survey of 3,532 professionals with the CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™ designation....
"It's absolutely imperative that advisers begin to embrace social media," said Kevin Keller, chief executive of the CFP Board. "The opportunity is in engaging with clients and raising an adviser's profile with prospective clients and depending on how it's implemented, positioning him or herself as a thought leader."

DENVER — A chance encounter at a restaurant in a Denver suburb led to the arrest of an Ethiopian immigrant who authorities say tortured political prisoners decades ago in his home country, according to testimony from a Department of Homeland Security official Tuesday.
The man authorities identify as Kefelegn Alemu Worku pleaded not guilty to U.S. immigration charges and denied that he is a former guard at a prison know for atrocities and human rights abuses.
"He denies all of it," said Matthew Golla, a federal public defender, outside of court. He called his client "Mr. Doe" during the hearing.
The man entered his plea in federal court before being ordered held without bail by a judge who noted that he is accused of using several aliases. U.S. Magistrate Judge Kristen Mix also said the man faces serious accusations involving a detention center known as Higher 15. It was established during the late 1970s in a campaign known as the Red Terror, an effort the global watchdog group Human Rights Watch has called "one of the most systematic uses of mass murder by a state ever witnessed in Africa."
Worku was spotted by happenstance and confronted in May 2011 in a suburban Denver restaurant by a former prisoner who recognized him as a Higher 15 guard, said Homeland Security Agent Jeffrey Lembke, who did not elaborate.
The Cozy Cafe in an Aurora, Colo., is a hangout for Ethiopian immigrants in the Denver area, said restaurant manager Girma Baye.
The man identified as Worku was a regular at the restaurant and was known as Tufa, said Baye.
The Ethiopian immigrant, who says he escaped from the prison in 1979, went to authorities with his suspicions, leading to the investigation that resulted in the man's arrest last month, Lembke said.
Two other Ethiopian immigrants, who say they also were held at the prison, identified the suspect as Worku in a photo lineup. None of the three have been identified except by initials.
These men had "a very strong reason to remember, even though it was 30 years ago," said federal prosecutor Brenda Taylor in court.
The three immigrants told authorities the man they identified as Worku participated in beatings and torture sessions that included a cattle prod, rifle butts, whips and pipes. They also said he threatened at least one witness with an AK-47 at the prison where detainees were regularly beaten and executed.
Golla said his client has lived peacefully in Denver for eight years and should be released. He said his client has worked at Denver International Airport and is currently employed with a parking lot company.
The man has been charged with unlawfully procuring citizenship or naturalization and aggravated identity theft. If convicted of both, he faces up to 12 years in prison and fines of up to $500,000.

Council To Vote On Balboa Park Makeover Plan
Tuesday, July 19, 2011
Aired 7/19/11
The full San Diego City Council will consider a controversial plan to transform Plaza De Panama today. A multi-million dollar makeover to remove cars from the plaza is at stake.
SAN DIEGO The project would route traffic coming into the park from the Cabrillo Bridge around the Museum of Man. The new access road would keeps cars out of the Plaza de Panama. It also includes the construction of a new parking garage behind the Speckles Organ Pavilion.
The plan has received the support of Mayor Jerry Sanders and Qualcomm Founder Irwin Jacobs, who vowed to raise $25 million for the project.
But historic preservationists have blasted the plan and it has received lukewarm support at City Hall.
The council Rules Committee voted to move it to the full council without a recommendation. Jacobs has stepped back from the project while the city sorts out whether it wants to go forward. The council will weigh in this afternoon.

The parking garage is not needed. Modern parking management (such as SFPark) makes parking spaces available in every parking aisle. This is what we need in Balboa Park, not a huge concrete eyesore.
markkap | July 19, 2011 at 12:08 p.m. ― 5 years, 8 months ago
Also, there is no need to build the expensive by-pass of Plaza de Panama. Just close most of the Plaza to cars, and leave open two thin traffic lanes in front of the Mingei Museum to connect the Cabrillo Bridge to the park drive. The bulk of the plaza would then be available for other pedestrian uses.
Daniel Beeman | July 19, 2011 at 7:06 p.m. ― 5 years, 8 months ago
We need more alternative proposals information. One City Staffer suggested that you could email her, call her with new alternatives, but never gave her name, phone # or email address. So who ya gonna call? Trial period with one way & only one lane on the Cabrillo Bridge, west to east & right turn(south) only at Plaza de Panama & U-turn after the horse rider statue [when coming north] to go back south. Please cars out the the park now, trial run. Access for handicapped and late late night for museum/retail/restaurant services/merchandise. There are already two other off Freeway accesses to the west side of the Park.
Sincerely yours, Daniel Beeman aka FreedomPlease
P.S. I also believe a Parking Structure, UNPAID, could be put at Inspiration Point, with 5-6 levels, freeway entrance & exit, with part underground, part above for Park Blvd & other Balboa Pk street access.

It's common to have questions before ,you begin a hospice volunteer position. Please check out the information below. If you still have questions, feel free to call the Mayo Clinic Hospice office at 507-284-4002 or 800-679-9084 (toll-free).
What is the expected time commitment? It varies, but when a hospice volunteer is assigned to a family, the visit is most often once a week for one to four hours. All assignments are based on the individual volunteer's availability.
How many patients do I work with at one time? Hospice volunteers usually work with just one patient at a time. A hospice family, however, may have several volunteers assigned if multiple volunteer visits are needed each week.
Where do the patients reside and what about transportation? Most hospice patients live in their own homes, but some live in nursing homes or assisted living facilities. Volunteers need to provide their own transportation and can choose to be reimbursed for mileage expenses.
Do volunteers get another assignment right away? If a hospice volunteer has established a close relationship with the patient, he or she will be encouraged to take some time off before accepting a new assignment.
Are volunteers supported? Yes! Support and educational meetings are held on a monthly basis for hospice volunteers. The volunteer coordinator keeps in close contact with each volunteer throughout the duration of the assignment. Volunteers may also contact other hospice team members for support or information.
What if I have a concern while visiting a patient? Volunteers are instructed to call the Mayo Clinic Hospice office at any time during the visit if they have a question or concern. An "on-call" nurse is available after office hours for consultation. A hospice nurse will come to the home if needed.
What personal qualities are sought in a hospice volunteer? Each volunteer has a strong desire to help and is able to focus on the needs of the patient and family. Hospice volunteering can be intense emotionally, so volunteers must be emotionally stable and up to the task. It is essential that volunteers accept where patients and families are in their acceptance of the dying process and are comfortable talking about death and dying as patients desire. Volunteers are as dedicated and responsible as the professional team members.
Why become a hospice volunteer?

PowerColor Radeon HD 7950 PCS+ review -
PCIe Gen 3 and ZeroCore Power
PCIe Gen 3
We have seen a lot of PCIe gen 3 motherboard announcements in Q3 and Q4 of 2011. What's that all about you ask? In a nutshell, PCI Express Gen 3 provides a 2x faster transfer rate than the previous generation, this delivers the capability for next generation extreme gaming solutions.
So opposed to the current PCI Express slots which are Gen 2, the PCI Express Gen 3 will have twice the available bandwidth and that is 32GB/s, improved efficiency and compatibility and as such it will offer better performance for current and next gen PCI Express cards.
To make it even more understandable, going from PCIe Gen 2 to Gen 3 doubles the bandwidth available to the add-on cards installed, from 500MB/s per lane to 1GB/s per lane.
So a Gen 3 PCI Express x16 slot is capable of offering 16GB/s (or 128Gbit/s) of bandwidth in each direction. That results in 32GB/sec bi-directional bandwidth.
The big problem is that you need a symbiosis of proper compatible hardware, like a Gen 3 supporting motherboard, Gen 3 capable processor and thus a graphics card supporting the new standard. A lot of Z68 and all X79 are PCIe Gen 3 certified. Processor wise however, its the upcoming Ivy Bridge CPUs from Intel that will support Gen 3. It is still pending whether or not Sandy Bridge-E will get Gen 3 support.
Power Consumption - ZeroCore Power Technology
There has been a dilemma in the PC industry ongoing for years now, while we all want greener and more power efficient products, our needs and demands for the PC have changed and as such we've seen a large shift in power consumption. The past two maybe three years though being more green has become a priority. Not only will it help mother nature, the electricity bill needs to be as low as possible as well right?
Therefore it's always a compromise, more performance means higher power consumption. That trend is changing though as performance for Watt has become an increasingly important aspect for any piece of hardware.
Believe it or not, but the high end Radeon HD 7900 series have a rated peak TDP (maximum power draw) of just 160~170 Watt, and that's really all right for a product of this caliber, features and performance.
AMD really focused on idle states as well, when you were in desktop mode for example in the year 2008 on 55nm, a graphics card would draw up-to 90 Watt. That changed dramatically on the 40nm nodes and seen products towards a much better ~20 Watt.
A new precedent is being set here though as in desktop idle mode, this high-end graphics card consumes only 2.7 Watt. So when the GPU is utilized less than 95% it can almost shut itself down 99%, even the ventilator will spin down and disable itself (which is a little freaky when you first see it really).
So what's happening there you might ask?
Well, as soon as the system goes into long idle state and applications are not actively changing the screen contents, the GPU enters the ZeroCore power state. In the ZeroCore power state, the GPU core (including the 3D engine / compute units, multimedia and audio engines, displays, memory interfaces, etc.) is completely powered down. ZeroCore Power state maintains a very small bus control block to ensure that GPU context is still visible to the operating system and SBIOS.
The enablement of the ZeroCore Power feature is controlled by the driver. The driver on its end monitors the display contents and allows the GPU to enter the ZeroCore Power in the condition that the GPU enters long idle and subsequent work requests are no longer being submitted to the engine. If any applications update the screen contents, ZeroCore Power technology can periodically wake the GPU to update the framebuffer contents and put the GPU back into the ZeroCore Power state.
Furthermore, applications such as Windows 7 desktop gadgets are architected to minimize activity and save power in the long idle state. These applications are active during screen-on mode to display dynamic content such as weather, RSS feeds, stock symbols, system status, etc. but also have the intelligence to suspend any updates and activity when the system enters long idle. These applications will not wake the GPU from the ZeroCore Power state in long idle. I have immense respect for the new technology as it is a truly great achievement.
So TDP wise, 160~170 Watt when it peaks during gaming, and 2.7 Watt in idle.

Techsters Host San Jose State in PINK ZONE Game Feb. 15, 2012 RUSTON - Louisiana Tech returns home to host San Jose State Thursday night at 6 p.m. in the PINK ZONE breast cancer awareness game at the Thomas Assembly Center. The game is the first of a basketball doubleheader as the Bulldogs host North Dakota 30 minutes after the completion of the women's game. It can be heard on the LA Tech Sports Network with the pregame show beginning at 5:30 p.m. The Lady Techsters (13-11, 6-3 WAC) are currently in third place in the Western Athletic Conference standings after their two-game road sweep at Utah State and Idaho. San Jose State (9-14, 4-4 WAC) is alone in fourth place. In the first meeting of the year between the two teams, Shantale Bramble-Donaldson scored 20 points and grabbed 15 rebounds to lead the Lady Techsters to a 70-64 victory. Tech is 21-0 all-time against San Jose State. However, the Spartans under first year head coach Tim LaKose are having their best season in recent history. Their four WAC wins has already surpassed their total from any of the past five seasons. San Jose State is led by the league's top scorer in forward Brittany Johnson, who is averaging 19.8 points and 8.4 rebounds per game. However, Johnson isn't the only Spartan averaging double figures as Sara Plavjlanin (13.6) and Ta'Rea Cunnigan (11.5) have also been consistent offensive threats this year. The Spartans are one of the top defensive teams in the WAC, holding their opponents to only 37 percent shooting for the year. As part of the promotions surrounding the PINK ZONE game, the first 300 fans through the Thomas Assembly Center doors will receive a free pink wristband while all fans are encouraged to wear pink to the game (any fan wearing pink can purchase a $5 ticket). A raffle will also be held as one lucky fan can win a "Sleepin' for the Cure" pillow case autographed by the Lady Techsters (all proceeds benefit the local affiliate of the Susan G. Komen Foundation.
Northern Louisiana Medical Center will also sponsor a "Toss it for a Tee" contest where fans can win free mini basketballs and t-shirts. |

Album Notes
Since scoring the hit indie film Little Miss Sunshine in 2006, composer Nick Urata -- known in indie music circles as singer and multi-instrumentalist of Gypsy-style alt-rockers DeVotchKa -- has expanded his reach, crafting the sonic backdrop for features like Crazy, Stupid, Love. and I Love You Phillip Morris. In 2012, Urata traveled back to the roots of his film composing career as directors Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris tapped him for their return to the silver screen, the fantasy-like rom-com Ruby Sparks. Following a novelist who overcomes writer's block after the title character emerges on the page and suddenly in life, Urata echoes the film's sense of joy and wonder in a series of songs based around swelling, swirling strings, propulsive percussion, and enigmatic vocalizations ("Creation," "I Was Waiting for You"), expanding to baroque brass as the story unfolds ("Inseparable," "Ruby Was Just Ruby"). In addition to Urata's compositions, Ruby Sparks [Music from the Motion Picture] collects throwback European pop songs (Sylvie Vartan's "Quand Tu Es Là," Plastic Bertrand's "Ça Plane Pour Moi") and a pair of mischievous reggae tunes (Derrick Harriott's "Psychedelic Train," the Lions' "Roll It Round") for added groovy fun. ~ Chrysta Cherrie

It is back to Half Square Triangles for they are so versatile, make for really great quilts, and provide comfort piecing after an episode of curved piecing. I can highly recommend them for their therapeutic benefits.
It is still a work in progress. Although I had envisioned the overall look of the quilt, it was not until yesterday as the blocks were arranged on my design floor for the first time, that I could finally see the overall effect of the design and colors.
As I needed to get this off the design floor, some of the parts have already been pieced together, others are still in stacks of numbered rows.

Former chief minister Capt Amarinder Singh has asked the Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC) president, Partap Singh Bajwa, to take a stand against the imposition of the property tax in the state.
Talking to mediapersons at Rupnagar on Saturday night, Capt Amarinder Singh said the imposition of the property tax was a retrograding step of the Punjab government and he was strongly opposed to the tax. He called upon the people of the state not to pay the property tax.
Capt Amarinder Singh said he had requested the AICC president, Sonia Gandhi, to retain the present office-bearers of the PPCC while restructuring the state body. At the same time, new office-bearers could also be added, he said.
He accused the Akali Dal-BJP government of ruining the state and failing on all fronts. The former CM also criticised the government for spending lavishly on performances by film actors and singers during the opening ceremony of the Kabaddi World Cup.

Trading volumes, volatility and spreads in foreign exchange markets: evidence from emerging market countries
This paper provides empirical evidence on the relationship between trading volumes, volatility and bid-ask spreads in foreign exchange markets. It uses a new data set that includes daily data on trading volumes for the dollar exchange rates of seven currencies from emerging market countries. The sample period is 1 January 1998 to 30 June 1999. The results are broadly consistent with the findings of the literature that used futures volumes as proxies for total foreign exchange trading. I find that in most cases unexpected trading volumes and volatility are positively correlated, suggesting that both are driven by the arrival of public information, as predicted by the mixture of distributions hypothesis. I also find that the correlation between trading volumes and volatility is positive during "normal" periods but turns negative when volatility increases sharply. Finally, the results suggest that volatility and spreads are positively correlated, as suggested by inventory cost models. However, contrary to the prediction of these models, I do not find evidence of a significant impact of unexpected trading volumes on spreads.

The sweet crispiness of the apples and the tang of vinegar give this potato salad a special lift. It's named after Normandy, famous for its apples and for its apple brandy, Calvados.
Leave a Review
Used russet potatoes, no Calvados, and basil in lieu of parsley. Also, I chopped the apples into smaller cubes. After pouring the sauce over apples/potatoes, I cooked it at 350 for about 30 minutes because it seemed weird to have crunchy raw apples with the scalloped potatoes... Turned out GOOD... surprisingly good...
A lovely potato salad in the Fall when there are so many apples in the green market. I thought it was fine (and healthier) with half the amount of dressing.
This dish appeared to be a nice twist, but was so-so. As another reader stated, it lacked bite - and I did add minced yellow onion. The apples were good in it...I think it just needs a different combination of ingredients. I wouldn't make it again, especially as is.
Who would think that apples and cream could so enhance a potato salad? The crunch and mild sweetness did wonders for what is usually an ordinary side dish. Everyone asked for the recipe. First made this when it was first published in Gourmet, and now it's a favorite.

Pitfalls lurk as Fed marches toward transparency
Federal Reserve officials want to tell the world what would cause them finally to reverse four years of easy U.S. policies, but something is keeping them up at night.
In the central bank's nightmare scenario, anxious investors drive up Treasury yields and abandon stocks as the nation's unemployment rate edges toward a level officials had flagged as a goal -- effectively tightening financial conditions and undermining monetary policy before the Fed was ready to act.
The worry is that such a situation could trip up the slow U.S. recovery from the Great Recession just when the economy finally gains pace. The Fed is carefully plotting how to avoid this communications nightmare.
These worries are slowing progress toward an agreement among the Fed's 19 policymakers on so-called thresholds -- economic data points, like specific unemployment and inflation rates -- that would signal when the central bank is likely to begin raising interest rates from near zero.
Many of the officials want to adopt them and influential Fed Vice Chair Janet Yellen voiced her strong support last week, making the project sound all but inevitable.
Such a rule would probably hinge on several pieces of economic information, such as the number of Americans hunting for work. If adopted, the rule would be the latest step toward Chairman Ben Bernanke's goal of a more transparent central bank.
But the trick is getting a hair-trigger market to behave.
Although the Fed's aim would be to inform the market how long its ultra easy policies will stand, that could backfire if investors interpret the conditional thresholds as automatic triggers, or if they try to front-run tighter policies.
"Aggressive traders are all for the Fed going in that direction because it will put money in their pocket," said Brian Reynolds, chief market strategist at New York brokerage Rosenblatt Securities.
"If you give them some concrete rules laid out in advance, the hedge funds will beat the Fed to the punch," he said.
To be sure, investors have long tried to predict changes to monetary policy. Indeed, markets need to react for those policies to work effectively. But as the Fed tests new ways to explain its unprecedented easing, it might court trouble if communications rules are too precise.
Fed officials are well aware of this threat, setting the stage for a delicate few months of trying to persuade investors that whatever rule they adopt is credible and helpful -- but not set in stone.
They could also abandon the idea altogether.
Proceed With Caution
Thresholds would replace a pledge the central bank has made to keep rates low until mid-2015. Many Fed officials and outside economists do not like this "calendar date" because it seems rigid or far-fetched and can be misinterpreted as a promise.
Hinting at the challenges ahead, Yellen, who chairs a Fed subcommittee on communications and is a front-runner to succeed Bernanke in 2014, stressed last week that the thresholds would not trigger a rate hike. She also said that decision would require further deliberation by policymakers.
But not everyone is convinced the message will get through.
Philadelphia Fed President Charles Plosser, who sits on Yellen's subcommittee, said thresholds could be misinterpreted as longer-run policy goals. "I am concerned that we would create more confusion than clarity," he said on Thursday.
Plosser voiced similar concerns back in January, when the Fed's latest change in communications confused some investors.
Emerging from a policy-setting meeting, the Fed announced it intended to keep rates low until late 2014 and then, hours later, published for the first time charts showing that more than a third of its policymakers expected a rate rise before 2014.
The contradicting messages whiplashed bond markets and may have instilled some extra caution in the central bank as it looks forward to yet new ways to refine communications.
Expectations Game
U.S. unemployment was lofty at 7.9 percent last month, while inflation has remained a bit below the Fed's 2 percent target.
Many factors, from wages to demographics to government spending, are behind the unemployment rate. The inflation rate is similarly "noisy," which poses problems if the thresholds are interpreted as blunt tools.
For example, the Fed is not likely to be satisfied with a jobless rate that is dropping because Americans are leaving the workforce en masse, as has sometimes been the case over the last 18 months.
But these important nuances may not matter to investors who anticipate the Fed will keep its word and move to raise short-term interest rates when the threshold nears.
"The market will start pricing in a lot of hikes, then the yield curve will steepen quite a bit, and equities will tank, and a lot of the good things that had momentum going into that move could become undone," predicted Krishna Kumar, a partner at New York hedge fund Goose Hollow Alpha Advisors.
"It becomes an expectations game," he added.
At the last few Fed meetings, talk of thresholds has heated up.
Last month, officials weighed the merits of adopting quantitative thresholds versus a more qualitative description of what informs its thinking, according to the Fed's minutes. In the end, "a number of practical issues" were left unresolved, and Bernanke told staff to do more work on the proposal.
The careful internal deliberations have not stopped some central bank policymakers from taking their ideas on the road.
Last year, Chicago Fed President Charles Evans pitched thresholds of 7 percent unemployment and no more than 3 percent inflation. In the last few months, two other regional Fed presidents floated their own plans.
Bernanke, the ultimate arbiter, has not weighed in specifically, though he may hint at where he stands in a speech on Tuesday in New York. The chairman is also set to hold a press conference after the Fed's December 11-12 policy meeting, but that might be too early for any final decision.
"We are probably still a couple of months away from such a communication strategy," said Michael Feroli, chief U.S. economist at JPMorgan. In the meantime, he said, the Fed will probably continue educating the market on how to interpret the thresholds.

Lots of snow from basin below Stujack to the top. Crux section and most scrambling areas are snow-free. Steep snow above pass, several very steep snowfields must be crossed. I had no visibility in snow, freezing rain, and strong winds. Probably better to wait until later summer when steep snow is gone. | ||

What a great climb! From Stujack Pass onwards the snow conditions were fairly decent, and the views were magnificent. Every time I wanted to take a picture of Sloan I had to remind myself - it only gets better the higher up we go. From the summit we watched the whole western horizon slowly fill up with clouds. By the time they had flooded the valleys between Pilchuck and Three Fingers we decided that it was time to climb down. Nothing especially hairy about the climb, a few of the steep snow sections were pretty exposed and made for slow going. | ||

Waited almost a year to return, but it was worth it! An early start from Redmond had us on the trail by 8:30. Low clouds, but no rain and the promise of clearing as the day wore on. Four of us headed up, including my partner from last October. The trail is in great shape, with only one blowdown to climb over or around. Reached the lake in a little over an hour, and the clouds were keeping the mountain from view. Another hour or so, and it was time to climb to Stujack pass. At least we could see it and the ridge this time. The clouds came and went, giving us an occasional view of our goal. Much nicer and safer in the late summer without fresh snow. Some clearing as we approached the base got the others to thinking about family and other earthly things. When we reached the small ridge above the head of the glacier, they decided they didn't like the looks of the scramble ahead. Twenty minutes later I reached the summit, 4hours, 8 minutes total. Views were still poor, but I made it! A long break at the campsite near the hoist to enjoy the views and the goat below us, and then back to the car. 9 hours R/T. | ||

This was the first time I had been up to Mt Pugh and it was not what I had expected. I really thought the hike up to the base of the pass was going to be more difficult. It was a lot of fun and let me keep some energy for the climb to the summit. The scramble to the top was great, but the exposure freaked me out a little. You would have to be crazy to try that in the winter. All in all, this was a great hike with some of the best views I have ever seen. | ||

Well, the summer had to finally end. Only problem was, I picked that weekend to attempt Mt Pugh. Arrived at the trailhead at 7:30 AM. Raining, foggy, very overcast. On the plus side, the gate to the forest road was open. The trail is in great shape! Nice and gentle all the way to the base of Stujack Pass. Saw the first snow around 4500', but still only about 4" all the way to the pass. A little route finding at the base, and we were on our way up. Reached the pass in just under 3 hours, and the weather hadn't improved. Windy at the pass, with limited visibility. Headed up the ridge toward Mt Pugh, following what we thought was the trail when possible, making it up when we had to. Eventually regained the trail, and followed it to the knife edge ridge. The snow was now about 12" deep, more or less. Eventually lost the trail, and with limited visibility, decided we went far enough for today. Right around 6300', a little past the winch. Four hours from the trailhead. Can't wait to get back. It was a very enjoyable trail. | ||

After summitting Mt. Forgotten the weekend before, Pugh was calling me back again, and I couldn't resist. The weather was pretty hot, but some questionable clouds started rolling in with the increased wind, and cooled things off. The clouds continued on to the north without dropping any water or lightening, but I didn't want to press my luck with the darker clouds coming in behind them. Great views all around, but there was a major fire that looked like it was somewhere between Leavenworth and the SE side of Glacier Peak. Very few people on the mountain. Leaves are really starting to come down, and looks like this day might be one of the last hot, dry days for a while. Pugh is such a blast. | ||

Beautiful day for climbing. Most peaks were clear and viewable except for Glacier Peak and Big Four Mountain. It was extremely hot, early on from Lake Matan up to the basin meadows. From there, we had a very welcomed cool breeze. For some reason, as we headed through the col, it felt very hot again. I knew getting acclimated to the heat of the area's first summer heat wave of the year would be added challenge. We were sweating like pigs and moving at a snails pace at this point. This was the most difficult part of the climb for me. Once we gained the ridge just below Stujack Pass, we took a brief break, and watched a dramatic avalanche come off the butte above the basin on the north side. Climbing through Stujack Pass with the current snow conditions was very tricky and had lots of exposure. One slip here would mean certain death, due to massive rock below and deep snow cracks in the basin below, without any run out of any kind. So... the nice, trivial kicked in steps I made suddenly became non-trivial. After crossing the adrenaline charged traverse, we found the steep summit ridge was considerable safer. We enjoyed great views of Sloan, Bedal Peak, Mt. Baker, and Mt. Shuksan. Two quarts of extremely cold water and two pints of frozen yogurt was our motivation and reward for getting down. Based on the transitioning snow conditions of Stujack Pass, I would recommend waiting about two more weeks before attempting this one again. Sometime around then, Stujack Pass should be much safer. | ||

scot'teryx | Route Climbed: North Ridge via Stujack Pass Date Climbed: November 30, 2002 | |
Road is gated at Mtn Loop Highway 1.5 miles to TH, bring bikes for an easier descent Trail is nice all the way up to stujack pass, then once on the other side of the ridge there is solid snow that is hard and requires crampons and ice axe. Even the higher south east facing slopes had some snow on them which made the scramble to the summit a little more interesting. 13 miles RT little under 5 hours to summit, 2.5 down | ||

Hike time Round trip 10.5 hours. Me and Neika (malamute) went up to the summit, and she made it this time. A few years earlier when she was a pup had to turn back on the ridge as there was a large rock block she could not get up. This time however, she made it with a bit of pulling and pushing haha. No bug's, no snow, plenty of wildflowers. On the descent neika stopped on the trail ahead of me and cocked her head funny and down below us a baby bear cub scampered straight up a large pine tree, being instructed by her mom below. We quickly left them alone and continued on. Limited people and on a Saturday only saw 3 other's. | ||

Easy hike to the top, and one of the greatest vantage points of Glacier Peak. | ||

We know that Jane Harman was blackmailed by the Bush Administration into supporting illegal spying on Americans.
But Dave Lindorff asks a really good question: was Harman the only Congress person blackmailed by the Bush Administration? Or were others blackmailed as well?
