Laika Cocktail
2 oz Vodka
Shy quarter ounce Lemon Juice
Quarter ounce 1-1 Honey Syrup
Allspice (aka Pimento) Dram
Stir with ice and strain into a glass coated with Allspice Dram. Squeeze thick swath of orange peel over cocktail and discard.
Another vodka cocktail I worked up for Heaven's Dog.
I was trying to riff on the ingredients used in the Eastern European beverage calld Krupnik: vodka, lemon, honey, spice.
Trying to think of a name, Krupnik reminded me of Sputnik, which reminded me of the first animal to orbit the Earth, Laika.
If you have a vodka with some character, this cocktail will show it off. I like to make it with the grape based vodka we have at work, CapRock.

What Vancouver Gained By Hosting the Olympics
The Games have a lot of naysayers. But Vancouver's former planning chief says the 2010 games made his city stronger.
As billions await the London Olympics' opening ceremonies, global urbanists are already deep into the sport of navel-gazing. Has London mimicked former host Beijing, focusing on national reputation-building and expensive attention-seeking architectural icons? Or have they followed in the carbon-footsteps of Vancouver, the last Winter Games host, with weighty aspirations to use the Olympics as a catalyst for sustainable and inclusive city-building?
Watching the London Games approach has brought back my own memories of our experiences with the 2010 Vancouver Games. Olympic host cities of all stripes share a rare and special collective memory and experience. The days leading up to the 2010 Games were filled with hand-wringing, anxiousness and criticisms.
From weather fears to concerns that locals wouldn't truly embrace the Games, there was lots to lose sleep over for VANOC and its many partners. Indeed, for Vancouver, tangles and tragedy struck early. Who could have predicted warm weather with no snow, a cauldron malfunction during the Opening Ceremonies, and most sadly, a devastating athlete death on the first day? In those first moments, things felt grim.
For those of us in city-building the big work of facilities-design was long done, because it had to be, along with developing the Olympics Transportation Plan, and envisioning public space transformations, "look-of-the-city" elements and spectacles. But the logistics of being a good host to thousands of athletes, media and visitors kept everyone tense and hopping.
Like in London, officials were obsessed with Olympics branding issues, with predictable debates about free speech in the public realm. Hundreds of meetings were organized for local and regional economic development, as well as special events hosted with global partners such as the Clinton Climate Initiative and Sir Richard Branson.
A big part of our job during the Games would be as ambassadors to the global media, as well as to political, city-building and economic development delegations intrigued by our preparations (especially our LEED-ND Platinum Olympic Athletes Village, dubbed by the U.S. Green Building Council as the "greenest community in North America" at the beginning of the Games). We also kept busy with unexpected challenges, like negotiating an improved re-design of the unfortunate Olympic Cauldron condition, infamously hidden behind harsh chain-link fencing.
It might help Londoners to know that there had been plenty of pre-Games grumbling in Vancouver too. Many pledged to "get out of town during the Games;" others complained "we never should have gone after the Olympics." We, like the rest of the world, had been affected by the global economic crisis in 2008, and debates about whether the Games would help or cost us economically abounded.
I followed with great interest London Mayor Boris Johnson's recent call to grumpy pre-Olympics Londoners to "put a sock in it." Although this is a bit more aggressive language than we Canadians might have used, our own mayor also had to encourage Vancouverites to stay positive in the days leading up to the opening ceremonies. The concept of a "pre-Olympics funk" is well understood by host cities. There was considerable worry that Vancouverites would put on an unhappy face when the visitors arrived and cameras started rolling.
When I was interviewed by Nate Berg in Places Journal in 2010, here's how I put it:
Past Olympic cities have talked about the emotional roller coaster that happens before an Olympics, and sometimes you have to go through the troughs to get to the high points. I think our city has had that. Vancouver is a very self-aware city. We can be tough on ourselves and that's one reason we've achieved as much as we have. But it can be a challenge to balance between booster-ism and cynicism about our place in the world, and how well we've achieved our goals around the Olympics and around sustainability. But as we get closer and closer to the day, it's just more excitement and less worry. As they say, at this point it's like a luge sled: no brakes and limited steering!
As it turned out, organizers needn't have worried. Vancouverites and visitors teamed up to make the 2010 Olympics a new benchmark in Olympics-related civic transformation and celebrations. The public embraced the complete Olympic experience in the city and its streets like never before, fostered by beautiful shorts-weather and a city-led focus on making the Olympic energy accessible to everyone, not just those who had tickets. The whole city was the Olympics, something that changed us as a city forever, and changed the Country and the Olympics as well.
Vancouver's Games will be remembered not for our gold medals, though that final gold in hockey, defeating the U.S. in overtime, has become part of Canada's collective cultural memory. It will be remembered not for the things that were out of the host city's control, the mechanical glitches or the initial media snickers. It will be remembered for how the organizers responded and recovered, and how the city celebrated. It will be remembered for perhaps the strongest effect on national unity, identity and pride across a host country seen in recent memory. In almost every way, Vancouver's Games were the opposite to Beijing's, certainly in the budgets involved - but if Beijing's goal was national reputation and identity-building, Vancouver's Games accomplished that in spades, without a single piece of iconic star-chitecture.
For city-builders, the more detailed key legacy lessons from our Games, in adaptable and responsible facilities, public realm transformations and festival-making, and mobility/mode-shift legacies, will be the subject of my second article later this week.
What's best for Londoners to remember is that even for a great global city like theirs, the Olympics can be an incredible city and nation-changing moment — if its designed that way, and the people embrace it. In the end, London will hopefully be remembered as a wonderful and joyous host city, and for what Canadian commentator Stephen Brunt called the quality and power of the "collective experience." There is power, and a lasting legacy, in that.

Asus Rampage II GENE Review
Whenever a new chipset is released there is always a rush to be the first on the market and take advantage of the high prices that invariably come with almost every new hardware release. Unfortunately this rush to the market causes premature releases meaning unstable drivers, a performance hogging BIOS and many other unfortunate shortcomings remedied by later editions. One fairly standard rule though is that if you want all the features, then you have to have all of the board. This means that if you want to play with things like SLI, Crossfire, Overclocking, and pretty much every other enthusiast feature available, then your sights are narrowed immediately to just the ATX style and the gigantic eATX style motherboards. Far from perfect for the mobile gamers out there forced to lug a huge case around simply for lack of a smaller motherboard that doesn't skimp on the features. Enter the Asus Republic of Gamers branded Rampage II GENE motherboard.
The RIIG is the first uATX style motherboard to join the ROG family, and it is as deserving of the title as every other product in the ROG line! With features like full 24GB 2000MHz RAM support, SLI/Crossfire abilities, support for 12 USB 2.0 Ports (6 built-in, 6 on-board headers), Fuzion waterblock compatibility, and integrated X-Fi sound, the RIIG is as packed on paper as it is in real life but with all of these capabilities is it just the jack of all trades or does truly perform with the big boys? Let's find out!
Closer Look:
The Rampage II GENE come packaged in style. Sporting the same design as the rest of the motherboard's current RoG brethren, the Rampage II GENE comes in a flashy red box with Rampage II GENE artistically plastered on every side in a gray to silver gradient contrasting beautifully with the bright background. One of the truly stand out features on the packaging however is the remarkably refreshing absence of some cheesy alien/cyborg/elitist object attempting to proclaim the units superiority through outright lack of any taste whatsoever. Instead, there is a simple yet modern flame motif originating from the bottom right corner of the package around none other than the Asus logo itself. Words can only go so far when describing an object so see for yourself. Asus has packaged the Rampage II GENE to blow away the big boys but it's the innards that count. Still, Asus would be foolish to present a dud in a warriors outfit so I'm interested to see what's to offer. You get a small peek at whats inside when you lift the flap on the front cover, underneath you can see some of the stand-out features that Asus wants you to know about such as the on-board X-Fi.
Opening the box you get full frontal view of the Rampage II GENE protected by a clear plastic shield. Once you remove the motherboard tray you come to the bountiful assortment of accessories, the most prominent of which is a copy of the flame motif seen on the front of the packaging in case sticker form, just what the avid LAN gamer needs to prove the superiority of his or her system. The inclusion of this was thoughtful seeing as how the small form-factor will make this board very attractive to the LAN going types.
Well we have seen the shining armor, now to see if a true knight resides within.

Reviews: Movies
Penn's 'Into the Wild' Is Beautiful, Stirring, Complex
"…too-muchness is the essence of the story—a hero's gallant, possibly mad and inevitably doomed attempt to channel too much experience and too many ideas through one young life that can't possibly hold it all… Moviegoers will argue the question of whether the young man's quest succeeds or fails: Is he a pilgrim who finds the transcendence he sought, or a wounded bird flying blind on lofty ambitions, or both? There's no arguing, however, that 'Into the Wild' is a new experience, even though some of its countercultural themes and tropes may seem familiar. It's a mainstream movie of ideas that lives in a world of fateful action." READ MORE >

It seems Nicole Richie took a cue from Kelly Osbourne after the two presented at the 2013 American Music Awards in November.
The 32-year-old mother of two recently dyed her hair purple which she showed off via Instagram on Monday. "About last night," she captioned the photo featuring her new purple hair styled in a tight chignon.
What do you think of Richie's new hair? Would you ever try out this look?

It seems that almost on a daily basis someone in here finds some bit of odd news. Therefore, I felt that this would be appropriate to start such a thread, as an effort to consolidate future odd news items.
I decided to start with an engineering whoops type of news!
LINKFor 2,000 years the Trevi Fountain in Rome has provided a constant influx of fresh water for one of the most fabled sites in the city. Now, with summer around the corner, the supply has dried up and it has nothing to do with global warming.
Water engineers blame the reduction to a trickle of the normally gushing Aqua Virgo on damage to underground conduits caused by work on a suburban garage. The builders say that they were assured that no archeological remains lay beneath the site.
Can you imagine being that engineer who caused the damage to a 2000 year old pipe! I am impressed with the knowledge of engineering at that time to create and maintain a system that is that phenomenal and lasted up to today. I guess its true, they dont build em like they use to.

"The Festival of Street Painting is actually allowing the audience to see the artists in action," says 3D sidewalk artist Anat Ronen in this video showing the creation of 3D chalk drawings commissioned in celebration of the 90th anniversary of Tel Aviv suburb Ramat Hasharon. "We see it in between art and performance art."
Chalk artists, painters, environmental sculptors and musicians from Israel and Holland, Italy, the United States and Russia contributed their diverse talents to the inaugural festival, which took place in July.
Municipal spokesman Guy Kelner says he expects this to become an annual event.

Strasburg scratched, Nats send Ohlendorf to the hill
Washington, DC – The Washington Nationals scratched ace Stephen Strasburg from his scheduled start on Friday and will instead send right-hander Ross Ohlendorf to the mound.
Strasburg apparently felt soreness on Thursday while experimenting with a new pitch. He will rest for a few days and is expected to make his next start against the Miami Marlins on Sept. 19.
Nationals manager Davey Johnson said the soreness in Strasburg's muscle is in no way related to the Tommy John surgery he had performed three years ago.
Ohlendorf takes his place and will make his sixth start of the season Friday when the Nationals open up a crucial 10-game homestand against the Philadelphia Phillies.
Washington (77-69) has resurfaced in the National League wild card race after winning 17 of its last 22 games, with its four-game sweep of the New York Mets putting them within 5 1/2 games of Cincinnati for the second wild card spot.

Trust and the Future
Skilling insists that Oxford's success is a direct result of trust built between district employees and school board members through a shared vision that was consistently communicated throughout the administration, the schools and the community. The district also went a long way toward earning the trust of parents and the rest of the community by eliminating activity participation fees and student admission fees for school events.
This shared trust between the school board, educators, parents and the community emboldened Skilling to transform the district's educational delivery. Once such trust is built, Skilling says, "It opens up innovation exponentially."
In the end, just as he'd hoped before the Great Recession set in, Skilling was able to "leverage this economy to create Oxford's finest hour." But he and Oxford Community Schools remain focused on the future.
By 2013, all Oxford teachers will use a blended learning instructional model, where the instruction is delivered both by the on-site classroom teacher and by computer-based software, Internet-based software or teachers educating remotely via the Internet. By 2015, most face-to-face learning, especially in the upper grades, will be in "flipped classrooms." Students will receive instruction outside of the classroom (often via recorded lectures online), and teachers will devote classroom time to practice, application, mentoring, discussion and collaboration, among other things. Oxford also aims to digitize all of its curriculum and instructional material, replacing traditional textbooks.
Spurred in part by the OVA's success, the district plans to create the Oxford International Virtual High School. This program will connect students to teachers and peers around the world. Some classes in the program will use a blended learning model, while others will be full-time online. The goal is to provide students opportunities to work in a globally diverse environment.
Based on his experience at Oxford, Superintendent Skilling bluntly advises other school leaders to embrace digital learning: "If the magnetism of your vision is not greater than your current assets, your district's in a state of decline, decay, heading towards mediocrity and possible extinction. If you don't get on board with virtual, you're on your way to extinction."

Climate change activist speaks at Loyola Jan. 9
Loyola press release - December 10, 2012
Ever wonder what life as an activist would be like? A lecture Jan. 9 sponsored by the Loyola University New Orleans Environment Program offers a rare peek into that exciting world through the eyes of well-known environmental activist and writer Rebecca Solnit. She will highlight some of her life experiences of working on environmental and human rights campaigns since the 1980s during the lecture at 7 p.m. in Loyola's Nunemaker Hall, located on the third floor of Monroe Hall. The event is free and open to the public.
Solnit's talk, "The Speed of Thoughts: Parades, Marches, Strolls, and Other Journeys Through Places and Ideas," will draw connections between urban landscapes such as New Orleans and the wilder sides of the region. Attendees will "stroll along" with Solnit as she discusses how people behave in the face of environmental disasters. In fact, a recent op-ed by Solnit focuses on one such disaster, Hurricane Sandy, and its relationship to climate change.
The San Francisco resident has authored 13 books, including 2010's "Infinite City: A San Francisco Atlas," "A Paradise Built in Hell: The Extraordinary Communities that Arise in Disaster" as well as "Wanderlust: A History of Walking." Her perspective as a nonacademic intellectual serves as an alternative model for students, faculty and others.
The event is also co-sponsored by the English department, Women's Resource Center, Women's Studies Program, School of Mass Communication, Loyola Association of Students for Sustainability, Sustainability Committee and the Center for Environmental Communication.

Already in Foreclosure?
Jun 23, 2014
If your home is in foreclosure, this can be an extremely difficult time and it may appear that you have few or no available options. You may also feel like you've lost control and can't determine if or when you can vacate.
Don't Give Up
Depending on your specific situation, you may have options. For instance, you may be able to voluntarily transfer your mortgage to the owner with a Mortgage Release™ (Deed-in-Lieu). A Mortgage Release is where you, the homeowner, voluntarily transfer the ownership of your property to the owner of your mortgage in exchange for a release from your mortgage loan and payments.
Options are available (sometimes with a relocation incentive) to help you leave the home immediately; stay in the home for up to three months without paying rent; or lease the home (at market rates) for up to one year. Depending on your situation, you may be required to make a financial contribution to receive a Mortgage Release.
Can I Quality?
To qualify for Mortgage Release, you'll work with your mortgage company to:
- complete the eligibility process, such as determining the value of the property and how much you still owe as well as reviewing your current hardship
- review the options available under Mortgage Release (your mortgage company will help you choose the best option for your situation)
If approved, you will be required to sign standard pre-closing documents as well as attend the closing. A Mortgage Release usually takes around 90 days to complete, but this could be shorter or longer depending upon your specific situation.
The Right Move
Your next steps depend on which option you've qualified for. These include immediately vacating the home, staying in the home for up to three months (no rent), or leasing the home (paying market-based rent monthly) for up to one year.
Additionally, when you vacate the home at the agreed-upon date, you are required to leave the home—inside and outside—in good condition, free of interior and exterior trash, debris or damage, and all personal belongings must be removed. In some cases, you may be eligible to receive up to $3,000 relocation assistance to use toward your moving expenses and to make the transition to new housing easier.

The 1-for-24 disaster suddenly washed away. Seventeen strikeouts that defined major league embarrassment vanished.
All Brett Wallace knew was he had just destroyed a baseball and his second home run of the day was a game-changer: a towering three-run blast that finally ended up in the shallow right-field stands, allowing the Astros to tie the Tampa Bay Rays in the eighth inning Thursday at Minute Maid Park and turning Wallace's teammates into a shouting swarm.
Wallace couldn't hear the crowd. He couldn't hear the shouts for a curtain call. Manager Bo Porter found his fill-in third baseman and forced him to the top step of the dugout.
"I was so locked into our team," said Wallace, who finished 3-for-5 with two home runs and four RBIs. "Guys were screaming and yelling in the dugout and high-fiving everybody. I had no idea. I didn't even hear it.
"Bo actually had to grab me and pull me out there and actually pushed me back out there again, because I was coming back in. It was really just an emotional moment. I honestly was kind of just out of it — I didn't even hear it."
Wallace's homer was the best it got for the Astros, who fell 7-5 to the Rays in 11 innings. But the sight of Wallace, 26, stroking an opposite-field blast in the fourth inning, then launching a game-tying shot in the eighth on a day he tied his career high for hits was promising for an organization trying to pluck positives from a season with 55 losses.
Wallace has hit safely in six of seven games since rejoining the Astros, going 8-for-28 with three home runs and nine RBIs. The lefthanded Wallace's best work has been to left field. And a hitter clearly more confident is looking like a major league batter.
"When you start driving the ball the other way … what happens?" Porter said. "You bring 'em back to happy land.
"He got something middle in and did what you should do with it," Porter said of Wallace's second homer.
April demotion
Wallace was a mental mess April 18 when the Astros optioned him to Class AAA Oklahoma City. An expected everyday player in 2013 hadn't delivered a hit since the March 31 season opener.
Once Wallace got to Oklahoma City, he stabilized. He streamlined his batting stance, raised his hands and found a home in the box. In 59 games, Wallace batted .326 with 11 homers, 37 RBIs and a .952 OPS. When he was called up June 25, the Astros were coming off a 14-6 Wrigley Field rout by the Chicago Cubs and the promotion of Jake Elmore instead of Jonathan Villar overshadowed Wallace's return.
But a career .309 hitter with an .882 OPS in six minor league seasons appeared different. Wallace had rediscovered his attack and confidence.
"You never lose belief in what you can do and for me that was the biggest thing," said Wallace, who has raised his average to .173 and is slugging .404 with the Astros. "I never doubted that I could be a contributor here and be a piece of this team.
"Sometimes, it doesn't work out the way that you think it will. I just had to keep my head up and keep working hard."
Wallace's perseverance and low-key approach long ago earned him the respect of his teammates.
"It was awesome," center fielder Brandon Barnes said. "That guy deserves it. I've known Wally for a couple years now and played with him last year in Triple-A. The guy works hard and he loves the game and he wants to play.
"Unfortunately, he had a bad start. But he didn't let it get to him. Now, look what he's doing: he's hitting the ball. This is the Brett Wallace we know."
Kudos from Maddon
The rest of baseball associates Wallace with 1-for-24 and 17 strikeouts.

You Can't Keep a Lid on This Kind of Creativity
Commode Covers Become Platforms for Artists; Swizzle Sticks, Space Shuttle
Barney Smith, 91 years old, a retired master plumber turned artist, recently put the finishing touches on his 1,035th toilet seat lid, which will be displayed with his others in his oversize garage.
He began his collection about 50 years ago, when he bagged a small deer and was looking for a way to display the antlers and discovered that a lid worked perfectly. Since then, he has painted, engraved and adorned lids to mark earthquakes and Super Bowls and to honor entertainers, mayors and his wife, Velma Louise.
"If it's not a lid, I won't paint on it," says Mr. Smith, of Alamo Heights, Texas, whose collection is enshrined in his Toilet Seat Art Museum, which is free and draws about 1,000 visitors a year. Executives from toilet seat manufacturers have taken tours as have local grade school classes, who can learn about the eruption of Mount St. Helens and see ashes from the site, which are glued on the lid, as well as the fall of the Berlin Wall, a piece of which is mounted to another lid.
Mr. Smith aside, toilets and art haven't generally been associated with each other. Commodes are considered commodities, and like religion and politics, not the subject of polite conversation. "There's something about human nature that shies away from toilets," said Celeste Massullo, an entrepreneur from Macedonia, Ohio. She said she had a hard time getting people to take her seriously when she first introduced Toilet Tattoos, a line of reusable vinyl décor for lids. But the concept is catching on. She says annual sales of the tattoos, which she began selling in 2006 and retail for $9.95, have reached $6 million.
"It really turns your toilet lid into a frame for artwork," said Ms. Massullo, who also designed jewelry and a line of feather coats. Her Artistic Canvas collection includes wildlife paintings of deer and bears, brightly colored tree frogs and portraits of German shepherds, which she licensed from several artists. Some artists refused to participate. "They don't want their work on a toilet," said Ms. Massullo.
Wisconsin artist Lori Schory does. Ms. Schory's paintings of flamingos, koi fish and butterflies appear on several items, including jigsaw puzzles, light switch plates and T-shirts.
She heard about Toilet Tattoos, thought it would be a good fit for her work and contacted Ms. Massullo, offering to digitally adapt her work to fit both round and elongated lids.
Since then, she has produced custom drawings for Toilet Tattoos, mainly scenes of outhouses. "Art isn't just for someone in an art gallery," said Ms. Schory.
Some galleries have shown toilet lid art. Last summer, the Flying Pig Studio and Gallery in Lucas, Kan., hosted an exhibit of hand-painted lids in conjunction with the opening of a public restroom in downtown Lucas called Bowl Plaza, which is shaped like a toilet tank with an entrance resembling an upraised lid.
Mr. Smith prefers toilet seat lids over canvas for practical reasons. They are versatile, plentiful and inexpensive. Local plumbing companies donate rejects. John Kostopoulus, of Boron, Calif., also apparently preferred lids. He had 400 toilet lids, featuring celebrity portraits and political slogans, suspended from a hurricane fence around his home. He died in 1996.
Mr. Smith believes his collection is the biggest, although he isn't in any world record book. He checked Guinness World Records and didn't see anything for toilet lid art, although there is a record for the most toilet seats broken by the head in one minute—46. Mr. Smith has an application to submit his collection for consideration but hasn't filled it out. He's too busy.
"Some nights I fall asleep with my shoes on," said Mr. Smith. He recently completed a lid in anticipation of a busload of senior citizens from a local retirement center. The lid is engraved with the center's logo.
He works only on pressed wood lids because he can drill into them and secure various items such as license plates, military medals and computer keyboards. People send him mementos they think worthy of being so preserved.
One man offered what he said was a piece of a space shuttle that he found on a Florida beach. Mr. Smith mounted the object and painted a picture of the shuttle above it.
One couple donated their swizzle stick collection; another sent the bootees of their newborn and asked that one be made for their baby.
He doesn't charge people for making customized lids and doesn't sell them either. "He's not doing this to make a living," said Liz Tullis, who lives around the corner from the Toilet Seat Art Museum. She asked Mr. Smith to make a tribute lid as a surprise, one-of-a-kind gift for Phil Hardberger, the former mayor of San Antonio.
"It's one of my proudest moments," says Mr. Hardberger, who also has a more conventional canvas oil portrait hanging in city hall. Mr. Hardberger, a country boy who grew up in a house without an indoor toilet, said he admires Mr. Smith and the fact that he uses a medium that others might consider odd or inappropriate.
"I like people who kind of step to a different drummer," said Mr. Hardberger. The former mayor autographed the lid, which is number 1,000, and has visited the museum twice.
On a recent day, sales executives from Plano-based Topseat International Inc. stopped by to admire the collection. Topseat sells lids with 3-D images of tigers, polar bears and butterflies. Its newer Vario Scenario lids can rotate pictures of landmarks around the world, including the Statue of Liberty and the Eiffel Tower. Marlin Coffee, who is in charge of sales, had read about the museum and wanted to contribute two lids to Mr. Smith's collection.
"He's very passionate about his work," says Mr. Coffee, who was impressed by the intricate carvings and eclectic subject matter.
Mr. Smith said he never runs out of ideas.
When his local dentist was retiring, Mr. Smith called. "Do you have anything that I could put on my toilet seat?" The dentist gave him two sets of dentures, which are mounted on a lid along with instruments, and serve as a lesson for visiting children on the importance of dental hygiene. "If you don't brush your teeth you're going to lose them," Mr. Smith warns them.

Oldie But A Goody!
Eric Michaud | Posted 2009.01.13 at 3:58 am | Perma
So, I know people over the years have posted plans on how to make a card reader for basically nothing. Which is really cool, and still is, but sometimes you just want to play around with other hardware to get familiar with it. So I found a very recent project done by the crew HackMiami documenting how to read 2 track Magstripe cards. (in a very sleek and sexy package I might add!) Even if it is on a breadboard))
In this project they show how you can use a Arduino coupled with a LCD and a magstripe reader to easily output the contents of your card. They even include the code and pretty easy to follow diagrams. How cool is that!

Grand Theft Auto IV Walkthrough
|Do You Have Protection? (cont.)
When you gain control, point your gun at the target, following the on-screen prompts if you don't already know how to do so. Then, as the game instructs, shift your attention (and the barrel of your gun) to the guy on your left. Since they're not listening to Dimitri so well, he orders you to shoot the guy in the leg, so do so, being absolutely, positively careful not to shoot him anywhere else, or you'll fail the mission. That's all these chumps needed. They give up the money, and you're free to leave the shop and head back to your car.
En route back to your car, Dimitri will let you know that there's a firearm shop he needs to visit. This store is located Downtown on Dillon Street, but naturally, the GPS will get you there quickly and easily, so don't concern yourself too much with getting there. Just get there! Once there, Dimitri will let you go in by yourself, tell you to buy an uzi, and tell you to charge its $1,500 price tag to Faustin's account. So, do just that. You won't be able to buy any of the other weapons, since the game simply won't let you, nor do you have the money for any of them at this point anyway. But now, you're well-armed. With the uzi, get back into the car and bring Dimitri back to Faustin's. Case closed.

Disclaimer: All product reviews and honest opinions on this site are solely that of my own and I am not endorsed, affiliated, or paid for this review unless otherwise specified. I bought this product with my own money.
- 75 seconds – fastest heat-up for the perfect style
- Dual heat comes from both the clip and the roller for extra hold
- Ceramic technology – for better heat transfer and longer-lasting curls
- 20 ceramic multi-sized rollers – for beautiful curls and volume
- 8 jumbo rollers (1.25″)
- 6 large rollers (1″)
- 6 medium rollers (.75″)
- 20 heated clips
- Stay-cool end rings
- Ready dot
- On/Off switch
- Power indicator light
- 5-foot line cord
- UL listed
- Limited one-year warranty
The clips heat up on the hot plate that's also in the box for longer lasting curls, and you just keep adding clips onto the plates as you take one out (one in, one out). The heated clips help speed up the process, and help keep the curl so it lasts longer. It comes with 20 rollers total, and 20 clips. The rollers are different sizes, 8 jumbo rollers, 6 large rollers, and 6 medium rollers.
What I didn't like about it? It curled my hair nicely, but because I have long hair, I had to re-curl a few sections a few times just to get it to even look like it was curled which probably takes longer for me than if I were to use an actual curling iron. The clips half the time, did NOT stay onto the rollers, they kept sliding off and my hair would unravel from the roller, and I didn't even use a lot of hair where it would be too much for the roller and the clip. I could never even 'tighten' the roller so it stayed/felt secured on my head because the clip itself only encompasses half of the roller, so there was barely any comb left from the clip to hold onto my hair so it would stay close to my scalp. It would just sorta fall loosely which was annoying because after awhile the weight of having close to rollers on your head just starts to hurt since it sorta tugs and becomes uncomfortable. Also, the curls didn't really last a long time, at the end of the night they lost it's shape and just looked wavy, and that's with hairspray.
– Heats up fast
– Clips heat up too which is nice to ensure a lasting curl
– Has a slit in the roller which I believe stores more heat in the ceramic plates as oppose to tradititional rollers
– Clips would not stay on rollers, couldn't clip it tight enough to roll it close to the top of my head
– Had to re-curl a few sections to get a decent curl
– Wish there were more large or medium curlers
Overall? I recommend it for gals with shorter and fine hair because I think it would work great for that type of hair. My hair is just too long and thick for these rollers so they just didn't work out for me, even at the end of the night they were weighed down and went from curly to wavy. I am better off personally using a curling iron as it can give me my desired curl/look, and it seems a lot faster.

Pass tobacco price increase
To the editor:
As a tobacco control advocate, I'm happy to say that this legislative session has been encouraging: The House heard testimony about bills that would close the "little cigar" loophole and increase the price of tobacco, the Senate held a special tobacco tax hearing and Governor Dayton included a tobacco price increase in his budget proposal.
Thanks to these efforts, we are one step closer to making a tobacco price increase a reality. Research shows that by increasing the price of tobacco, we can help current smokers quit and prevent children and teens from ever starting.
I met with Rep. Chris Swedzinski recently over the legislative break to make sure he heard about the broad support for a tobacco tax increase from one of his constituents. I hope Rep. Swedzinski will take our conversation into consideration when he returns to the Capitol and help pass a tobacco price increase.

Selling bullets may be the most secure job in Florida as long as supplies last.
After months of heavy buying, gun dealers across the state are experiencing shortages.
Some say it began with the election of President Barack Obama. Others say it's about the economic downturn or fear of crime. Whatever the reasons, ammunition has been selling like plywood and bottled water in the days before a hurricane.

Installing the Necessary Dependencies
First, install GNU's iconv library for Windows. You can get a nice msi installer from http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/libiconv.htm. Unfortunately, they only offer a Win32 installer, so hopefully that's the platform you intend to target.
Next, you'll want to grab the GLib headers and libraries for Windows. The easiest way to do that is to go to http://www.gtk.org/download.html and download the All-in-One pre-built bundle for Win32. Once downloaded, extract the zip file (the docs suggest not using WinZip due to a bug) and place them wherever you want (I put mine into C:\Users\jeff\Documents).
Configuring Visual Studio
Now that the libiconv and glib headers/libraries are installed, you'll want to configure Visual Studio to know where to find those headers and libraries.
First, go to the Tools menu and select Options...:
In the Options dialog, expand the Projects and Solutions tree item and then select VC++ Directories.
Make sure Win32 is selected in the Platform option menu and then select Executable files under Show directories for:, like so:
Scroll to the bottom of the listbox and add the bin paths for your installed libiconv and Gtk+ bundle just like in the above screenshot.
After you've added the bin paths, you'll need to add the #include paths. Select Include files under Show directories for: and, like you did for the Executable paths you added above, add the paths to the include files.
Next, you'll need to ad the library paths. Under Show directories for:, select Library files and add the appropriate paths to the bottom of the list.
And that's it! You are now ready to start building GMime!
Note: I've been using Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition which you can download for free from Microsoft.

Corsair Hydro Series H90 Review
Corsair Hydro Series H90 Introduction:
When Corsair decided that it wanted to grow as a company and break from the mold of being just a high performance DRAM supplier, one of the first products out of the new Corsair was the Hydro Series H50. This self contained liquid cooling solution in a box revolutionized the way water cooling was looked at for the masses. Traditionally, liquid cooling was for the select few who were willing to take the risks of putting liquids inside the chassis with custom made parts that really were not always of the best quality. Fast forward to today and there are tons of cooling parts centered just around liquid cooling as it has hit the big time with the cooling needs of today's hot running CPUs. Overclocked of course!
Outside of a custom loop, a self contained liquid cooling solution is the next best option in terms of cooling performance. So much so that both AMD and Intel are offering their top end enthusiast parts with the option of a self contained solution. As the need has grown, Corsair has been there to deliver ever more efficient solutions from the old and new H60 to the H70 and H80 with larger radiators and finally the H100 series. Working with OEM builders Asetek and CoolIt across the series has delivered the best each company has to offer.
Finally we get the new Hydro Series H90. This revision is built using a 140mm radiator and fan to provide increased cooling across the board. Increased surface area is always going to aid cooling. Pricing is currently around the $99 mark, putting the Hydro Series H90 at a premium price point. Based on past history, the H90 should be another step up in performance over prior revisions of Corsair's Hydro Series self contained liquid cooling solutions.
Corsair Hydro Series H90 Closer Look:
The package change seen on the new H60 is used with the H90. A sliver box with blue and black accents is used to stand out on a shelf when sold in a brick and mortar location. The front panel has a rendering of the H90 with the product name in a bold font so you know just what you are getting. Support for both AMD and Intel processors is advertised as well. Just above the product name you can see that this revision uses a 140mm fan instead of the traditionally used 120mm. The back side of the package illustrates the merits of the Hydro Series H90 when compared to a box cooler running an Intel 3770K at 4.6GHz showing that the H90 is indeed a high performance liquid cooling solution. Subject to validation, of course. Along the bottom is the contents list to show what should be included in the package. On each side is information that speaks to the use of a 140mm fan while the obverse lists the technical specifications in multiple languages.
Opening the package shows that the Corsair H90 is held in place with a formed cardboard housing that holds the components in place so that each part of the package is isolated from damage. The manual sits on top of the contents, each strategically placed in the shell to minimize any impact damage. Corsair has used this means of packaging the Hydro series for some time now and it has proven effective.
The accessory bundle that come with Corsair's Hydro Series H90 includes the user guide/installation manual, a single 140mm fan, and the mounting hardware for the Asetek Gen 4 pump head and 140mm radiator. Mounting hardware is included to install the H90 on all of the current socket types from AMD and Intel.
Compatibility with the latest sockets allows the H90 to be used with just about any system on the market currently, whether its a Socket 2011 Intel or FM2-based AMD system. The H90 is suited for use with all of them.

With an estimated price tag of $14.46 billion,the London Olympics has presented costly logistical and infrastructure challenges and has created the biggest peacetime security operation in the country's history, costing an estimated $877 million.
The British military has taken high-profile measures, from deploying over 17,000 soldiers inside and outside of London during the games to placing surface-to-air missile batteriesatop residential buildings.
With so much emphasis on security, entering Olympic venues may make spectators feel like they are going through a check point at an airport. Just as airport security restricts certain items, the London Organising Committee for the Olympic Games has listed a range of things that are prohibited or restricted.
Restricted items — those that "may disrupt competition, obstruct the view of other spectators or create a safety hazard" — may be confiscated.
The committee suggests that spectators bring as little with them as possible, but in most cases spectators are allowed to bring one medium, soft-sided bag into venues that can fit underneath a seat or on a lap. The more a spectator brings, the longer it will take to pass through security.
So what are some of the prohibited and restricted items in 2012 Olympic venues? Although most of the items — weapons, alcohol, drugs, fireworks, liquids, spray paint and pets — are obvious, but some may surprise you. Click ahead for some of the most interesting examples.

Most women have painful cramps from their
period from time to time. The good news is that you can usually relieve cramps
over-the-counter medicine and home treatment.
Menstrual cramps usually
begin right before or at the start of your period. They can cause mild to
severe pain in your lower belly, back, or thighs. Some women also have
headaches, diarrhea or constipation, nausea, dizziness, or fainting.
Menstrual cramps can cause mild to severe
Menstrual cramps can cause mild to severe pain
in your lower belly, back, or thighs.
Continue to Why?
your menstrual cycle, the lining of your
uterus produces a hormone called
prostaglandin. This hormone causes the uterus to
contract, or tighten, which can cause cramping. Women with severe cramps may
have higher-than-normal levels of this hormone, or they may be more sensitive
to it.
Most women have painful menstrual cramps from time to time.
Cramps are more common in the teen years and early 20s. This cramping usually
goes away in a few years when the hormone levels even out. But some women in
their 30s and 40s still get cramps during their periods.
menstrual cramps are caused by a health problem not related to having your
period, such as
endometriosis or
uterine fibroids. To treat these kinds of cramps, you
need to treat the health problem that is causing them.

On-line Videos Featuring Home Care for Cats: The Cornell Feline Health Center has developed a series of six live action videos to help owners provide basic home care for their cats. The short programs at www.felinevideos.vet.cornell.edu are free, informative, and have simple to use step by step complete instructions. Much of the scientific detail is illustrated with animation.
The current topics are: Caring for Your Diabetic Cat; Giving Your Cat a Pill or Capsule; Giving Your Cat Liquid Medications; Trimming Your Cat's Claws; Taking Your Cat's Temperature; Brushing Your Cat's Teeth. Cornell is open to new topic requests to add to their on-line "how to" cat care library.
Cats can be uncooperative patients. That's an understatement. These videos give many practical suggestions for in home medical procedures. Bookmark the site. Even veteran cat owners will get tips. During the cat confusion, owners can forget the obvious- such as putting the cap back on the bottle of medicine so the patient or person doesn't knock it over. The videos offer reminders and also let you in on some vet tech tricks of the trade. The web tapes tell you how to set the stage and how to grip your feline friend.
These videos come from an excellent source. Since 1974 the Cornell Feline Health Center, located in Ithaca, NY, has been devoted to improving the health and well-being of domestic and exotic cats everywhere, by sponsoring breakthrough studies to prevent and cure diseases in cats; educating veterinarians and owners about feline health, nutrition and behavior; and aiding veterinarians when new or unknown feline diseases occur. The Center has played a key role in answering cat owners' concerns about the risks of avian flu.
Cornell has been responsible for many "firsts" in the study of feline disease including establishing the latest vaccine recommendations; developing shots for certain respiratory viruses like feline herpevirus and calcivirus; and clarifying the role of maternal antibodies in kittens against feline panleukopenia (commonly called cat distemper).
Two of the current studies at the Center are investigating the causes of deadly thrombosis in feline heart disease and refining the use of a certain chemotherapy drug with cats. Docetaxel is one of the most effective anti-cancer drugs in humans but seems to have many side effects when given intravenously to cats. The Center is reporting promising clinical results with oral doses of docetaxel in owners' cats stricken with advanced cancer. The Cornell Feline Health Center is one of our cats' best friends.
"Sassy" the poster cat at Oyster Bay Shelter (677-5784) Miller Pl. Syosset is a gorgeous, longhaired gray cat with a white bib. "Sassy" #0005 is mature, super friendly and quite large. "Hamlet" #1024 is a male black Lab mix who has been waiting for a forever home for a long time. See more photos on the shelter's Petfinder site.
+Female: "Dora the Explorer" #1120- the tan Shepherd mix shown last week; a muted calico # 1204; "Kitcha" #1182- a black & white cat.
+Male: "Sebastian" #771- an older large Shepherd mix; "Bob and Company" the tabbies housed in the shelter lobby.

Since the last post, all sorts of stuff has gone on! Things are progressing nicely, especially with Neddick. Since last time we've registered each of the Fogcutter subprojects with sited dedicated to F/OSS, such as Ohloh.net, Advogato.org, and Freshmeat.net. Source code has been pushed to GitHub and the Google Code SVN repository. We've gotten Bugzilla and IceScrum installed and configured, and we have a live Neddick demo site up and running. Additionally, documentation has been written on our development process, and some roadmap documentation has been put together. We've also put together a site at Fogbeam.org dedicated to Fogbeam's open source activities.
Not a bad week's work, eh?
So, for your browsing convenience, here are links to all the new hotness:
Neddick demo site

I think that's about it. Whew...
Anyway, what's coming next? Well, all of the stuff from the Neddick roadmap, and we also need to get a proper Ant build setup, some tests written, and Hudson installed and configured to do continuous integration and automated testing.
The Neddick screencast should also be forthcoming shortly, which should be fairly enlightening.
And that's about it. Any questions, just leave a comment here, or join the fogcutter-dev or fogcutter-discuss Google Group and post there.

New Lego center aims to build a good time, brick by brick
It is expected that families from across the area will be stacking up on some fun this weekend when the newest Legoland Discovery Center opens in Westchester County.
It will become the 10th such center, joining others in such places as Tokyo, Kansas City, Chicago and Berlin. It will be the only one in the Northeast, said Chris Mines, the site's general manager.
Lego has teamed with Merlin Entertainments Group when it comes to the centers, as well as its theme parks.
Reached a week before the center's March 27 grand opening. Mines said it was much quieter than he expected it would be once the doors officially opened to the 32,300 square foot space.
"From here on out, it's going to be really busy," he said.
Aimed toward families with children 3 to 12, the center features interactive rides, a 4-D cinema experience, iconic sites and buildings of the area in Miniland and master model builder workshops.
"It is like jumping into the biggest box of Legos, really," Mines said, adding that there are more than 3 million Lego bricks actually in the building. More than 1.5 million of them are in Miniland alone.
"There is a building test area, too, where kids can build cars and race against one another," he said.
Duplo village will likely be a stop for toddlers and the whole family can have their seats at the theater. Don the glasses to enjoy the 3-D experience and make sure to stay alert to enjoy the 4-D experience, which enhances images on the screen with special sensory effects such as wind and scents.
"Our master model builder will be running workshops throughout the day, revealing the secrets of building fantastic models," Mines said. "We'll talk through the fundamentals of building ... and how to build to last."
Mines said participants can even test their Lego engineering skills at the earthquake table, which, with a few shakes, can test the structure of any model or sculpture.
Mines said research at the other discovery centers have shown that the average visit is about two to three hours.
"I'm sure the kids would like to spend all day here, though," he said.
"We are very proud to be part of the community," Mines said, adding that the center has already created about 100 jobs.
It may appear to be all about kids' play, but Mines said parents are just as encouraged to play.
"It is all about the playful learning," he said. "There really is something for everyone."

A new site marketed toward singles suggests love can be found through sharing a room. Not by signing a lease together, rather just for a night while traveling.
Interested in ?Add as an interest to stay up to date on the latest news, video, and analysis from ABC News.
LoveRoom, which launched in Beta earlier this month, connects singles who are "sharing a room" or "seeking a room" for free. Account profiles on the site require answering questions that will "help other users get to know you better," via personal interests and taste in home decor.
"We want to help you find interesting people to stay with," LoveRoom founder Josh Bocanegra told ABC News. "So it's not just about sharing with complete strangers. It's about sharing with those who spark your interest, those who you might have a connection with."
New Charm Dating App Lures Suitors with Video
Initially advertised as "Airbnb for attractive people," Bocanegra has since tweaked his description to be more universal.
"It's more of an Airbnb for single people," he said. "Everyone's attractive to someone."
Unlike Airbnb, however, the site doesn't charge "seekers" for sharing a home. LoveRoom simply provides a space to peruse possibly good-looking hosts, which on its face seems more akin to the "casual encounters" section of Craigslist.
Pay-to-Date Sites Go Mainstream
Detractors of the startup say the message behind LoveRoom is confusing, with columnists on Business Insider, Mashable, and L.A. Business Journal questioning whether the site fills any real need in the marketplace.
But according to Bocanegra, some singles have found the purpose to be crystal clear.
"We have over 700 users now," the founder wrote in an e-mail to ABC News. Most range in age from 25 to 35 and represent various ethnicities, he said. The majority are based New York and Los Angeles.
He stressed that LoveRoom is still in a state of evolution. If users request an ability to charge for sharing a space then the company may add that function in the future. Bocanegra also noted that the site is not simply for the heterosexual and viril set.
"We're also gay and bi friendly," he said. "So women can search for women and men can search for men."
The official launch is targeted for Valentine's Day 2014.

AFCO 80101NDP Double Pass Racing Radiator-27.5 Inch Wide, 19 Inch Tall
Universal Fit, Double Pass Radiator Style, Aluminum, Upper Right Inlet Location, 2 Row Quantity
Important Messages:
- Get FREE shipping when your order includes this item and exceeds $99! Ground shipping only in the contiguous US.
AFCO Double Pass provide more cooling over standard type radiators, with less than 2 oz. of added weight. Common temperature drops are 10-20 degrees when replacing a standard configuration radiator of equal core size. Keeps your mind off the water temp and puts it onto the race track.
Double pass radiators gain their efficiency by first passing the fluid over the top half of the radiator and then the bottom half, giving the radiator the ability to dissipate heat twice.
AFCO uses an exclusive 360 degree TIG-welded baffle that splits the radiator core into two sections. This 360 degree baffle effectively creates two radiators out of one and assures that you wont have any coolant that has entered the radiator but never made it across the core. This is superior to utilizing silicone to seal internal baffles, or worse, a partial weld that allows the coolant to bypass the radiator core completely.
