From hotels to resorts to homes.
Brooksville, Florida is not the first place you might consider when planning your next golf trip; however, with a great collection of championship golf courses including several that are nationally ranked, Brooksville is the perfect alternative to most Florida golf trips. Without the hustle and bustle of more notable tourist spots, the area is charming and quaint, the terrain is atypical of most of Florida, and the golf is exceptional.
Located 70 miles north of Tampa International Airport and situated along a secluded corner of Florida's Gulf Coast, the Plantation Golf Resort & Spa makes use of every square foot of the 232-acre property for some form of recreational activity. Highlighted by 27 championship-caliber golf holes, the resort also includes two lighted tennis courts, heated outdoor pool, volleyball, shuffleboard, and croquet. The hotel restaurant offers a daily a la carte breakfast, lunch, and dinner. For lighter fare, guests can try the Library Bar, the 19th Hole Grill, or the poolside Bar & Grill. Base your group here and you can play golf right on property or easily get to other area courses such as Southern Hills.
Southern Hills Plantation, the only private Pete Dye course in the Tampa area, opened in 2006 to rave reviews with Golfweek naming Southern Hills "One of the Top 50 New Courses in the United States" and "One of the Top 100 Residential Courses in the United States." Featuring elevation changes of nearly 250 feet, the course has a distinctive Carolina feel, yet with five sets of tees ranging from 5205 to 7557 yards, the course is very playable for golfers of all skill levels. Take advantage of this limited opportunity to play one of Florida's best courses.
Currently ranked #25 on Golfweek's list of "America's Best Modern Courses," Pine Barrens at World Woods is one of Tom Fazio's best designs to date. Since opening in 1991, the course has been collecting awards and accolades. Affectionately known as "Florida's Pine Valley," Pine Barrens is perennially ranked among the nation's top courses by Golf Digest. The course features large fairways framed by expansive waste bunkers and towering pines (hence the comparisons to Pine Valley). If you are staying in Brooksville it is a must play. If you are staying in Ocala, Tampa, or Orlando, it is well worth the scenic drive to play this masterpiece.
Although built right next door, the land occupied by Rolling Oaks at World Woods, another Tom Fazio gem, provides a stark contrast to that at Pine Barrens. Here you'll find huge oak trees draped with Spanish moss within a landscape reminiscent of Augusta National, including the gorgeous Azaleas! The course features beautiful rolling fairways and well-defined bunkers with bright white sand. Fazio's mindset must have been completely different when designing both courses, but the end results are nothing less than spectacular. Particularly enjoyable are the great par-three holes at Rolling Oaks. Play them both for one of golf's most exciting 36-hole days!
For accommodations in Brooksville, Vander Valk USA Vacation Homes, located in the charming town of Inverness, offers three-, four- and five-bedroom homes are just the ticket for groups of golfers looking for one big home to share. All units are individually decorated and offer plenty of room to unwind with large living/dining area, fully equipped kitchen, and screened lanais with private pool. These units are located away from the hustle and bustle of other tourist areas, but close to a variety of great courses. In fact, it's an easy trek to play Lake Jovita, Hernando Oaks, Silverthorn, and World Woods.
Be sure to consult with one of our "Golf Agents" if you have any questions. See you on the first tee!
We've been helping the traveling golfer for over 35 years, and we love golf as much you do. Here's a few more reasons to use Golfpac for your next golf vacation.

Ender's World
Each season we announce our new titles individually, each in their own post, to give you a little extra background...
Posted April 2ndRick Grimes and the Lessons of Undeadness
Robert Kirkman's epic comic book series is called The Walking Dead.
Not The Whiny Humans.
Can we agree on that much? Can we all accept that this, at least, is fact and not just "my opinion"?
Can we?
Because there's a reason he gave it that title.
Kirkman's phenomenal series makes perhaps the strongest case in contemporary fiction for the superiority of the zombie over the human. It is on the positive traits of zombies that Kirkman has chosen to focus his narrative, and rightly so. In the dark and apocalyptic world of The Walking Dead—so expertly limned by Kirkman—it is the zombies and not the humans who consistently find ways to persevere, who succeed, eventually, in obtaining their goals. Wherever they are and whatever they are doing, zombies always have the advantage. They triumph where humans fail. They endure in situations that would leave living persons totally obliterated. These dynamic, ever-stalwart, and supremely self-assured wonders are an inspiration to us all—but never more than to Kirkman's own characters.
I could, if I so wished (and if space would allow), make this point by producing a litany of instances in which capable, strong, and resourceful human characters are bitten, killed, or otherwise defeated by zombies. The Walking Dead provides no shortage of illustrative examples. Time after time, the zombies prevail and feed while the humans die, flee, or fight each other.
Yet it is not this consistent tactical dominance that provides the most persuasive evidence for the superiority of the zombie over the human in Kirkman's world. …

Question about a Teacher's pay (self.Teachers)
submitted 4 months ago by joltvolta
For Douglas Country School District in Colorado, the salary starts out at 35,000 for a BA with zero experience (if I'm reading it correctly). As someone strongly thinking about becoming a teacher who has had crap dead end jobs at an average $12 an hour for the last ten years, 30k sounds pretty good. I don't think that pay is that bad for a bachelors with zero experience. I certainly would like to see quality teachers be compensated better, especially with the demands that come with the job. With that being said, what am I missing?
[–]RedditJay 5 points6 points7 points 4 months ago
You're missing the fact that several (if not the majority) of teachers work 12+ hour days on a consistent basis. And, once you finally leave the classroom, you have 200 papers to grade. I absolutely love my job, but it does not leave much time for anything else, except the summer (that is quite a perk). However, I wouldn't trade my job for anything else because of the rewards teaching provides, such as the time with the students and the fun in the classroom. Teaching can be a wonderful time, but you must make sure you have passion for it, otherwise you could be working a job that pays much more and you're just wasting your time.
[–]joltvolta[S] 2 points3 points4 points 4 months ago
Thank you for the reply. This is what I meant by 'what am I missing'. Many jobs look like a dream on the outside but it's not until your in that position does the reality become apparent. I'm looking for the input of those you in the field of teaching or education.
[–]queenofthenerdsChemistry & Environmental Science 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago
RedditJay said a lot of solid things about the hardships and rewards.
I want to share some more numbers.
Sometimes my workdays are 8, or 14 hours.
One of the largest stressors and the thing that I feel makes the job really demanding is the "number of preps" we have to teach, aka how many different classes we are teaching in a day that each require a preparation of unique materials. 1 or 2 is a blessing. 4 or more makes a person go crazy, and yet, it teachers are given schedules like this too often.
Depending who and what and where you teach, and the school's schedule, you might have 50 kids instead of 100 or 200 throughout the day. It is still hectic. But you touch a lot of lives, and vice versa. I often will go home and worry about individual students in between worrying about other things.
[–]1000yrturtleSecondary ELA 2 points3 points4 points 4 months ago*
I earn 34 k teaching in a western state. I make a little more working as adjunct faculty at a local university and for advising the school newspaper. Hopefully next year I'll hit 40 k.
I applied for an office job with the Fed. government. They offered me 75k for my credentials. EDIT: I turned them down because I decided I like what I do after all, but still.
It may seem great coming out of college - but for the hours and responsibilities, teacher pay is low, low, low.
[–]joltvolta[S] 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago
What are your credentials?
[–]1000yrturtleSecondary ELA 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago*
BA, MA, 1/2 an MA, 2 yrs experience in journalism and 2 yrs in education. Surprised at how little experience is needed for 'big bucks'?
Most entry level positions in Federal departments start at 45-50 k a year.
Teachers don't make more because most teachers don't want more (or know what they're worth) and tax payers are more than happy to give them what they want.
[–]aoneandatwo 1 point2 points3 points 4 months ago
Your decision is your own business, but for long term financial stability for one's family, a federal job is almost always an excellent choice. And, if it were in the DoD education system, not only would you earn more money, but you'd have the credentials to go just about anywhere you wanted with education, administration, curriculum consulting, etc. I left a low paying Texas teaching job because I couldn't raise a family on that income. I miss the children, the a-ha! moments, but not the idiotic administration, frustrating resources, and some wacky parents. And I can support elderly parents and help family who are still teachers in the same county with my current pay. Just my two cents from a fed who loves education, but finds teacher pay and the environment we put our children and educators in a national embarrassment.
[–]1000yrturtleSecondary ELA 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago
It wasn't a DOD or educational position - it was with another department and it wasn't a good fit - but the money was tantalizing.
I agree with all of the things you've said. I think its too damn bad that our education system depends on high rates of turnover and zealous applicants who don't want money to keep costs down.
[–]jeffanie96K-5 art 1 point2 points3 points 4 months ago
I certainly would like to see quality teachers be compensated better
How do you determine what a quality teacher is?
[–]zangywastaken 2 points3 points4 points 4 months ago*
Comprehensive teacher evaluation system that doesn't rely on standardized test scores. Problem is you have lazy administrators. I'm a teacher and also have a masters in admin. Education has many problems but top among them is inadequate administrators. There are many teachers our there that need to be removed from the classroom but administrators won't take the steps necessary to remove them.
[–]anonoman925 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago
Many need to be removed along the spectrum of positions
People aren't skilled in the game of making things tough on people. If you truly are a waste of space, I can get rid of you - I learned from the best
That is a good question and certainly a hot topic. When it comes to assesing or evaluating a teacher, what measurements can be used that doesn't come with a list of issues? Standardized testing would be an example of something used to gauge performance that people have argued strongly against. Putting that aside, there are more effective teachers than others.
[–]ivybutcher 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago
Why are teachers in America paid so poorly? Starting for me where I am in Canada is just over 50k, and we have one of the lower provincial pay scales.
[–][deleted] 4 months ago
[–]joltvolta[S] 1 point2 points3 points 4 months ago
There is more to it than the allocation of federal funds towards wellfare and similar services. Like any job or compinsated position there are the economics and politics surrounding it.
[–]sparrowmint -1 points0 points1 point 4 months ago
You know Canada, generally speaking and varying by province, has a stronger social safety net than the United States does, right? So your idea about the US spending too much on "welfare" doesn't make any sense.
[–]aoneandatwo 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago
If you mean corporate welfare and handouts for the wealthiest and most powerful, then yes, you are partially correct.
[–]ChuchoterNew teacher grad! :) - English/French - Canadian 1 point2 points3 points 4 months ago
The money may look good, but we need to spend our own money on student supplies. Notebooks, pencils, pens, rulers, highlighters, glue, etc. We also spend a lot of time making our own lessons and dealing with emotional issues with children.
In Ontario, we start off at 48k, but requires teaching experience and the market is very competitive.
[–]anonoman925 -1 points0 points1 point 4 months ago
Wow. You certainly drew an expensive place to live out of that hat of yours
[–]Shell3Helgak 1 point2 points3 points 4 months ago
I was making over 60k as a programmer, and I'm looking at anywhere from 30 - 40k to teach math.
Maybe it's why there's such a hurt for STEM teachers in public schools these days.
[–]merglytudesHS English :: US 0 points1 point2 points 4 months ago
I'm a first-year teacher with an MA. My gross pay is $40k, but my take-home is just more than $31k. I worked as an editor before I was a teacher, and my salary was $41k. My take-home pay then was closer to $39k. The difference is that when I was editing, my company paid all of my health insurance, contributed to my 401k, let me choose how much (or how little) I contributed to my 401k, and gave me profit-sharing bonuses. I also did not pay union dues (right now I pay about $100 a month).
SO—I think one thing you may be missing is that teacher gross pay (as represented on the salary scale) will net less to you than a regular job's gross pay. If your teacher salary is $35k gross, I expect that you will be netting less than $30k. I guess that's more than a $12-an-hour gig, but not as much as it appears.
[–]anagrammaton 1 point2 points3 points 4 months ago
My salary is 30k, but I take home more like 21k after taxes and retirement (our retirement is insanely high). My husband, who works an hourly job ($14/hr), brings home more than I do.
You're missing cost of living, hours worked (not hours paid), and the cost of getting an education.
Deciding to do anything for the money is a bad idea. Do what you like first.

New pup---last pick of litter
This is my first time buying a dog from a breeder. My husband and I have been put on the waitlist for an upcoming litter and we've got the 5th pick out of 6 pups. My husband has a legitimate concern that we'll be getting a less than desirable dog with such a late pick. I'm confident that we'll be getting a great puppy because the sire and dam are high quality and previous buyers from this breeder have all been thrilled with their dogs. I'm also quite sure that this breeder would not let us take home a puppy that isn't a great fit for our family. What has your experience been? Thank you, d |

The breeder should be picking the puppies for each buyer. If that is the case and with all you have said about the sire, dam and breeder....you should be getting a good match for your family.

I've never put much stock into "pick of the litter". I like being able to go and see the pups and give my opinion on which dog I like from what I see, but if it's a good breeder, then you shouldn't have a problem.

Yep. It's not about who's first pick, etc. in your case (since you're not looking for a 'show dog', right?). The breeder should pick out the dogs according to the fit. The only issue would be if the breeder doesn't match the pups according to the buyer, and if there isn't a pup in the litter to match to what you want...would the breeder let you know that and wait for another litter?

Have you met the puppy? Our boy, Leif, was one of the last 2 male puppies left from a 9 pup litter (there were 2 other females left as well). He was significantly smaller than the other male, but we liked his personality a lot more than the other one. We were concerned about him being so small too. However, because of the litter size, we thought he'll catch up when he doesn't have to compete for food. He's from a reputable breeder, so we weren't concern about the quality of the sire and dam (we also met them). He was only 14 lbs when we took him home. He is almost a year old now and weight 73 lbs, great temperament, good looking and very smart. We could not have asked for a better pick! I think you'll be fine with your pick too. Good luck! and don't forget to post pictures. We love seeing floofy puppies! Last edited by Karo4410; 03-05-2013 at 10:51 AM. |

First or last pick from a good breeder doesn't really matter. A good breeder evaluates and places puppies with the family that best matches. So as long as you trust the breeders ability to evaluate and know their dogs then thats all that really matters.

imho, people want different "things" from their dog. if you described your life style and what you intend to do with your dog, they should be able to tell you if this pup will meet your expectations. for me, i know what i want and could care less weather i had the first pick or the last. i am one that will have to rely on the breeder to choose for me.

Everyone has different needs, goals, likes and dislikes...the whole "pick" idea is not something that really means anything. I hate the whole idea of "pick" and "leftover" pups.....every pup in every litter is going to be the best match for a different person, sometimes, yes, 2 people want and need the same things in a pup....my black male was "last pick" of three pups/2 males...so I had no choice at all...and he looked like his dad (what I wanted!!!) and he had lots of drive and I trained him and got Sch3 on him...and so did the other male...so it really meant nothing....although I think the other male had much better health throughout his life...but there was no way to tell that at 8 weeks old!

I agree with those who said the breeder should be picking the dog for you, and that getting last pick doesn't mean you're not getting a good dog.
The breeder narrowed my choices down to the 3 (out of a litter of 8) that she thought were most appropriate for me based on what I said I wanted. |

Better the last pup in a good litter than the pick of a poorly bred one. Assuming all of the pups are healthy and the breeder and parents are good as you say, you should be fine.

home |Archaeologies of the Greek Past ARCH0420 s01
a course with Christopher Witmore email@example.com (office hours: Wednesdays 3-5 or by App.) and Cecelia Feldman Weiss (T.A.)
Beginning with the destruction and abandonment of the Bronze Age palaces, through the classical age of Greek art and architecture to the conquests of Alexander the Great. This course provides a general survey of Greek archaeology and art. It will address questions of how archaeology helps to (re)construct ancient Greek society, and it will capitalize on the energies and mystique of the Greek past—the monumental sites of Mycenae, Corinth, Olympia, Athens, etc; the art, sculpture and mundane materials of the Classical period; the everyday architectures of the Greek household; the storied landscapes of the Peloponnesus. At the same time, it will engage questions of why the Greek past is important; in what ways are Greek pasts folded into the fabric of contemporary American culture and society?

University's space project goes where no man has gone before
8:00pm Wednesday 6th February 2013 in News By Wendy Brading
THE force has been with scientists from the University of Essex.
They have been working with space agency NASA on a project where they controlled a virtual spacecraft by thought alone.
Using technology called brain-computer interface, they found combining the brain power of two people could be more accurate in steering a spacecraft than by one person alone.
Essex University has built-up an international reputation for its research in this field.
Now it is expanding its work into the new area where tasks are performed by combining the signals of multiple BCI users.
The £500,000 project with NASA's jet propulsion lab in Pasadena, California, involved two people together steering a virtual spacecraft to a planet using a BCI mouse, developed by the scientists at Essex.

Reds to stay at redeveloped Anfield
Liverpool owner Fenway Sports Group marked its two-year anniversary of buying Liverpool FC by announcing their plans to remain at a refurbished, 60,000-capacity Anfield costing around £150m.
Director Ian Ayre admits the planned redevelopment will save a lot of money and will help to enhance the club's spending power within the transfer market.
Moving to a new stadium at Stanley Park would have cost £400m for FSG whereas redeveloping Anfield with the same 60,000 seat capacity will cost a significant less money of £150 million.
"FC celebrated its 120th year in 2012 at Anfield and there is no doubt Anfield is the spiritual home of the club – our preference was always to remain at Anfield," said managing director Ian Ayre. "This is step one as there is land to acquire, plans to be approved etc., but this is a significant moment.
"Added to that is the fact that I'd say it was very much the preference for our fans, the majority of our fans, and certainly for all of us. I think this is the spiritual home of Liverpool Football Club.
Steven Gerrard welcomed the decision to redevelop Anfield. "I'm really pleased," the captain said. "I've had some special occasions at Anfield and so have the club.
"If they are going to spend all that money on Anfield and improve it then fantastic. A lot of history and important things have happened at Anfield and I think it is fantastic Liverpool are staying there."
Personally I think this is the right decision for the club as Anfield is our home. What does everyone else think?

A new era has arrived; one where our annual vacations to St Lucia or the Swiss Alps will no longer suffice, and plane journeys between countries will seem a walk in the park. Last week commercial mastermind Sir Richard Branson celebrated the dedication of his latest innovative scheme - Virgin Galactic Gateway to Space, the world's first commercial space line.
Designed by Foster + Partners with URS Corporation and local architects SMPC, the New Mexico project is breaking new ground in architecture, education and research circles, pushing the boundaries of commercial building design.
Last Monday over 800 guests gathered at the 120,000 sq ft Virgin Galactic Gateway to Space to rejoice with Branson as scarlet-clad aerial dancers scaled the building to perform a contemporary performance in celebration of the revolutionary centre. More than 150 of these visitors had already paid a hefty deposit securing their seats for the first round of commercial spaceflights.
Inserted deep into the desert landscape to exploit thermal mass, Virgin Galactic Gateway to Space will welcome public visitors through a sunken channel into a New Mexico Spaceport Authority Visitor Experience where the buildings retaining walls will display a permanent exhibition documenting the history of space exploration.
The complex has been designed to meet LEED Gold requirements and comprises astronaut preparation and celebration facilities, a mission control centre, friends and family area, and a hanger facility capable of housing two WhiteKnightTwo and five SpaceShipTwo vehicles - both of which gave flight demonstrations at the dedication ceremony.
Susana Martinez, Governor of New Mexico commented: "New Mexico has a long tradition of pioneering innovation in aerospace and related technologies. Spaceport America and the opening of Virgin Galactic Gateway to Space significantly deepen those capabilities and strengthen our global position as a powerhouse supporter of space industry."
Private punters are not the only ones to benefit from Branson's novel new venture however. Virgin Galactic have just announced a contract with NASA's Flight Opportunity Program for research flights with a potential value of $4.5m and links forged with Purdue University, Space Florida, the Challenger Center for Space Science Education, and Southwest Research Institute in an effort to inspire students with ongoing space research initiatives.
Work will now begin on the internal fit-out following last week's handover to the client, with the building due to be fully functional in the next 12-18 months. Book you seat on one of Branson's space flights here and view a clip of the SpaceShipTwo's first feather flight in Mojave below.

Easton High School's ice hockey games thus far have been very one sided, whether they were shutting teams out while tallying goals in the double digits, or being shut out themselves. Friday, January 11th, was the first game this season Easton has played in in which both teams scored goals.

POLL: Does Marijuana Decriminalization Make Sense In RI?
Fairness, permanent record concerns pitted against public safety arguments.
The state Senate and House have approved bills eliminating the criminal charge for carrying an ounce or less of marijuana.
Gov. Lincoln Chafee said he's inclined to sign it into law during a WPRO interview.
The legislation passed the House in a 50 to 24 vote and passed the Senate in a 28 to 6 vote. Each bill must now pass in the opposite chamber in order to become law. If enacted, Rhode Island would become the 15th state to decriminalize marijuana.
The legislation could save the state millions of dollars each year, clean the judicial dockets for more serious issues and take away the criminal stigma from an otherwise youthful indiscretion, said Rep. John G. Edwards (D-Dist. 70, Tiverton, Portsmouth), a sponsor of the House bill.
Barrington Police Chief John LaCross said the RI Police Chiefs Association has always opposed the decriminalization of marijuana, and he has testified against decriminalization in the past.
Representatives of the BAY Team in Barrington also testified against passage of the bill this time, LaCross said.
Attorney General Peter Kilmartin also opposes decriminalization because it would increase the number of people driving under the influence of the drug and increase the risk of teens using it.
So, which concerns carry more weight?
The long-term consequences and cost of prosecution for posession? Or the effectiveness of officers and the potential risk to teens?
Vote in our poll below, and tell us your reasons in the comments.

This may be silly, but I can't find a link to the poll. Am I missing something?

Are Pop-ups Content Spidered Like Regular Pages?
Posted 16 July 2004 - 12:50 PM
On a couple of client sites I have pages of thumbnails of products and you can click on the images and generate pop-up windows with larger photos and more info. on the individual product. I just want to be sure that the content is spidered like any other page and that good content on those pages is helpful?? Separately should I stop using pop-ups since they are associated with unwanted ads and some people turn the options for pop-ups off in their browsers?
Posted 16 July 2004 - 01:11 PM
More and more people are installing toolbars, all of the ones I know of have the pop up stopper active as default.
Apart from that so long as you make sure the script you are using is a standard HREF tag then the spider can follow it. Why not just make it a normal page though? It will be much better IMO as then people landing in it will not be trapped.
I am not 100% on this, as I always have a product page for a product not via a popup. I am assuming you are using a java script that turns off all the browser elements, and presents a limited browser box? I am not sure if this page would open up in a normal browser and look dumb, or not open up at all.
Like I said, If I had 500 individual products, I would want 500 individual pages. Thats just me though. Others will argue differently I expect.
Posted 16 July 2004 - 01:14 PM
the discussion on popup pages has been had a few times and there are more cons than pros.

To me a pop-up is a window that pops up automatically with no
user interaction on my part except me being (un)lucky to land on
such a page.
What they are describing seems to be a new browser window
albeit smaller than the one underneath it; and can only be
activated by an intentional click from the user.
Personally I like to use these small window boxes for my
page-specific FAQ's or if I want to display a quicktime movie.
Pesonally I think each product should have its own page.
But if there is additional information you need to present,
this is an elegant solution that allows them access to the
information without losing the original page they were on
or causing them to have to click back and forth.
Posted 16 July 2004 - 03:36 PM
However, there are some folks who consider any new browser window (even those opened by their own mouse click on a link with a target="_blank" attribute) as being "pop ups".
Guess it's sort of like spam. The definition is in the eye of the beholder.
OWG, I keep a printout of the article on file in the desk drawer right behind my desk. It's right next to the print out of the article about the best way to size text using CSS. You may notice I refer others to them both regularly around here. The URL is printed at the bottom of every page.
(Low tech solution, to be sure, but it works...)
Posted 16 July 2004 - 03:36 PM

That is what I mean. I use Adobe Golive and a javascript action to create these little windows that come up only of you click in the thumbnail. So maybe "pop-up" is the wrong word to use? The windows do not come up automatically. But do the spiders still not read these?
Posted 16 July 2004 - 03:43 PM
Just compare how the method you're using works to the method outlined in the article. If you're doing what they recommend, you'll be okay. If not, then it isn't just the search engines who will have trouble accessing the content in those new windows (think of people who don't have JS enabled in their browsers, for instance...)
Posted 16 July 2004 - 03:52 PM
Posted 16 July 2004 - 03:58 PM
Sounds as though you and I are using similar terminology. But in any case, I think I understood what you were asking, so I guess that's the important part, eh?
Posted 18 July 2004 - 03:01 PM
Posted 18 July 2004 - 03:28 PM
Posted 18 July 2004 - 06:45 PM
I use user-launched pop-ups like Torka's but I haven't switched them over to the "Perfect Pop-up" solution yet.
How do you get the window to resize with the "target=_blank" method?

iam8bit's Art Show About Retro Video Games, From DuckTales to E.T.
See also:Shannon Cottrell Playing in Uncle Scrooge's gold depository on opening night of "Entertainment System" at iam8bit.
*Entertainment System at iam8bit (Pics)
Were you the type of kid who raced home from school to catch DuckTales? Did you have the theme song memorized? Did you spend hours playing the video game? Then maybe you should head down to iam8bit's Echo Park headquarters and go for a swim through Scrooge McDuck's pool of money.
For "Entertainment System," the latest retro-gaming themed art show from iam8bit, the group created a real life representation of the vault where Uncle Scrooge would dive head first into a sea of coins. "We are huge fans of the DuckTales game," says Noah Lane, the senior project coordinator at iam8bit, referencing the 1989 adventure game based on the series. "We've been researching and working on it for months."
The Echo Park firm worked closely with Capcom to bring the vault to life. Capcom, the video game company responsible for a slew of hit games, was behind the original DuckTales video game and recently announced DuckTales: Remastered. The new version of the old game will be available for multiple systems later this summer.

As a two-year North Bergen resident, I have enjoyed running laps around the lake in the James Braddock Park. That is, until recently. This past summer, I have been maneuvering around a virtual minefield of bird droppings. This problem seems to be getting worse. Each time I go for a run, at least one group of visitors is feeding the pigeons, geese and ducks. Among many problems that this creates, the birds are defecating all over the lake's walkway. With such a dry August, the droppings are drying, smearing and accumulating on the path. Disgusting? That's the point.
Feeding birds only increases their dependence on humans. Park visitors are making it unnecessary for birds to find their own food. Bird overpopulation can lead to the spread of mites and parasites between them. An easy food source will also promote unnatural migration patterns. With an increase in pigeons and geese at the park, I wonder if these are the visitors the park was intended to host.
Theoretically no, because red-lettered signs posted along the lake read: Protect Your Health: Do Not Feed Wildlife: $100 fine: It's Against the Law: Park Ordinance #213-5-1982. Despite the signs, visitors continuously feed the birds. Most often, they are giving birds stale, refined carbohydrates that they feel guilty about throwing away. What many do not understand is that they are feeding more than birds. Consider the families that toss fistfuls of stale bread onto the lake path, snap a few shots of their children playing with the birds and then walk away. The extra bread can easily attract rats and mice. How many people want a picture of their toddler feeding a raggedy gray rat - its sharp teeth shining in the flash of the camera?
Pigeons carry a number of infectious diseases such as salmonella, tuberculosis and orinthosis and are a source of allergens, which cause respiratory problems and skin reactions. Humans are exposed to these diseases when we come in contact with pigeon droppings, bird dandruff or feathers. All three are in no short supply at the lake. Just look around the path or in the water the next time you take a walk.
In two years I have not seen anyone receive a ticket, or a warning, for feeding wildlife - though I have lost track of the number of people violating the park ordinance. If no one is there to stop them, is there any incentive for people to stop feeding the birds? Maybe the police department is simply too busy. We are a big city after all. But then again, the Sheriff is visible in the park nearly every day. Officers sometimes ride their patrol cars right on the lake path. I even saw the Sheriff take a stroll on foot around the lake during the week of August 17th. Did he see the same families feeding the wildlife that evening that I did?
If no one is going to enforce or adhere to a rule that is clearly posted this problem will only get worse. Don't get me wrong - I do not dislike birds. I have no problem with wildlife existing alongside humans. I take issue when humans interfere with the natural habits of animals for a little family fun.

Our health care payment system is really broken.
We have a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) through Dan's office. This is a Good Thing. We put aside some pre-tax money every pay period, which can be used to reimburse us for certain out-of-pocket medical expenses. Thus, we are not taxed on those expenses, meaning that the government partially subsidizes them. If we put aside too much money (a possibility, since we have to estimate the amount the year before), we lose the excess, which presumably helps the government offset its subsidy. We therefore try to be conservative in estimating how much money to put aside.
So…this year because we had some unusual expenses, we ran out of our FSA budget sometime in June. With $14.74 left in the FSA account for the year, Dan had to make a doctor's copay of $15.00. He tried to put this on the debit card associated with the FSA account, and (naturally) they would take only $14.74. So he charged that amount and paid $0.26 in cash. Perfectly reasonable, yes?
In August, we received a notice from the company that administers the FSA account that there was a charge of $14.74 for which they required backup documentation. Normally our copays do not require backup documentation, so…apparently either Dan hadn't gotten, or I hadn't saved, the medical documentation for the charge, not expecting to need it.
Apparently, the reason the system rejected the charge of $14.74 was that it was an odd amount, not matching our standard copay, and it's theoretically possible we might have bought something from the doctor that didn't qualify for the FSA account. In other words, the rejection was triggered because we had underpaid by twenty-six cents.
In order to clear up this $0.26 discrepancy, I decided that the easiest thing to do would be to submit some other charge that was clearly legitimate and more than the $14.74 under dispute. I got on the benefit administration company's Web site in early November to do this. (Yes, I procrastinate bureaucratic stuff like this.) But their system wouldn't allow me to enter new charges because it looked at all charges submitted rather than all charges accepted. Since the $14.74 under dispute had been submitted (though not accepted), the system thought that we were already maxxed out for the year.
So I called the customer support line. After almost three minutes negotiating their phone system, I spoke with a Real Person, who told me that I had to submit the new charge manually (not through their Web site) and that she would annotate our account so that they would apply the new charge against the outstanding $14.74 and call it even. I also annotated the claim form in large letters with this information.
I submitted the information manually via US mail.
Yesterday, we received a letter denying the claim. The reason the claim was denied was that it was for $25.00 but there was only $14.74 left in the account.
Today I got on the phone, negotiated the phone system for almost three minutes, and spoke with a Real Person. She told me that, even though our account had been annotated by the previous Real Person I talked with, the system had rejected the new charge because the $14.74 claim was still open. She said she is going to resubmit the charge for manual review and it should go through just fine.
If for some reason it doesn't, we'll be getting another letter from their system.
As nearly as I can tell, the fact that we paid $0.26 too little has now cost me $0.44 for a stamp and about an hour of my time. It has cost the administration company $0.88 for postage and two phone calls with Real People lasting 5-10 minutes each. A company I once consulted to estimated that every call to Customer Support costs the company close to $50 in salary, indirect expenses, office space, etc. That was ten years ago, but let's say this company is really efficient, and each call costs them only $25. Therefore, they have spent some $50 so far in order to handle Dan's underpayment of twenty-six cents. And they will spend more than that: we still have a manual review process to look forward to.
I'm sure this is just the smallest example of the sad state of affairs of our health-care system. Was anyone wondering why our health care costs are so high?

Stormwater Program
Help Keep Our Waterways Clean!
Thank you for talking time to learn about preventing stormwater pollution and helping to keep our creeks, channels, bays and ocean CLEAN. The information that follows will give you the tools you need to join the team of responsible citizens who assure a safe environment for all.
Stormwater Program: Checklist of Allowable Discharges
Best Management Practices (BMPs) help control and reduce pollution. Here are some guidelines for allowable discharges.
Stormwater Program: Illegal Discharges
Certain discharges from residential, commercial and industrial activities are considered illegal because they can pose dangers to the environment. Read on to learn more.
Stormwater Program: Residential Pollution Prevention
Brea residents take pride in a clean city and understand that everyone is a partner in preventing pollution. Read on to get key stormwater guidelines for the home. Additional educational materials are available for download
Stormwater Program: Pollution Prevention for Business
Every business in Brea makes a smart decision when they assure best management practices are followed to prevent pollution. Extra care to follow stormwater guidelines can protect bottom line results. Read on for a quick review.
What to Do With Used Motor Oil?
Used motor oil never wears out. It gets dirty, but it can be cleaned, recycled and used again. Improper disposal may result in contamination - trouble for the environment and also possibly the person who tossed it away. So, what to do?
Stormwater Hotline
Citizen cooperation is vital for an effective stormwater program. Likewise, people on the streets are key to timely enforcement. If you suspect an emergency, always call 911. In a situation where you observe a discharge that you are uncertain about, but should probably be investigated, there are several points for reporting.

Choosing the perfect holiday gifts for friends and family can be stressful and expensive. Why not start a new gift tradition? Instead of buying multiple gifts, pick a theme to base your giving around. For example, do you and your friends love wine? Exchange one great bottle. Have a thing for chocolate? A great box of sweet confections will hit the spot. Not only are you sharing in the season, but you are also giving your friends something you know they'll love. Here are some more ideas that may turn into new holiday gift traditions for you and the circles you move in:

Call: 978-804-1726 Email: email@example.com
I have built three houses and just recently totally renovated a fourth. In all this construction experience, Mike and 3rd Generation are by far the best I plumbers I have encountered. This latest renovation/addition included totally gutting and/or building three bathrooms, a bar area and a kitchen, in a house which was first built around 1920. That's not to mention all the work 3rd Generation did removing and replacing steam radiators on the old heating system. What makes Mike and 3rd Generation so exceptional - is when we encountered problems or issues, which is a given when working in an old house, Mike always came up with cost effective quality answers to the issue. Unlike other plumbers who would just see dollar signs with each change, Mike worked with us to find the best, cost effective, solution. We throughly enjoyed working with Mike and his crew over the course of this long project. Kudos to Mike and 3rd Generation for being a quality professional organization which truely cares about all their customer's needs - including budget!
Hi Mike, I just wanted to send out a brief email to say thank you for taking the time to work with us and this antique house of ours. What started out as the biggest obstacle to our remodel turned out to be one of the things that we are happiest with in the end. The design that you created to hide all of our pipes is just perfect, the electrician and carpenters that worked on the job were impressed as well. Take Care
3rd Generation Plumbing has been the preferred Plumbing Contractor for NGP Management, LLC – Scrivanos Group for the past year. We own and operate over 120 Dunkin' Donut franchised locations throughout Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Maine and Vermont and no matter what, when or where our emergencies or service needs arise we can always depend on 3rd Generation Plumbing for their exceptional, professional and courteous service.
Dear Mike, Bravo to 3rd Generation Plumbing! I am writing to say how pleased I am with your work. Prior to starting the job you were patient with consulting services, so I could make good choices to remodel my bathrooms. You came to do the work promptly and did an outstanding job. I will recommend you to other "boomers" who are "dressing up" their homes before downsizing. Thanks so much for your outstanding work!


text: Dear KS List members: Thank you to Dr. King and one off-list correspondent for your replies. The gentleman off-list also quotes from Samuel E. Martin's _Reference Grammar of Korean_ (pp 523-524): "Dictionaries list the abbreviation as hāy and that is the prescribed pronunciation of the 1988 rules of the Ministry of Education. Since the form usually appears in a position where the distinction of vowel length is not maintained, here we write it as short in all positions." Between that and Dr. King's handy rule of thumb, I would extrapolate that 되다 would theoretically behave in an analogous manner, although it has been pointed out that the long vowel may be disappearing from 돼, if not from 해. So this brings up another question...when I started learning Korean, I was oblivious to the distinction between long and short vowels, and do not recall seeing any mention of the distinction in any of the many beginners' texts I used. (Perhaps not taking a proper course was the problem!). Presumably the matter is discussed at the intermediate level, at least? Is it not considered essential for beginning Korean learners to know? Or is non-coverage of long vowels an artifact of that pedagogical spectre, "Korean for foreigners"? Or as my correspondent suggested, could the distinction be vanishing in modern Korean? Yet, practical experience indicates that one of the reasons people misunderstand me when I speak Korean is because I inadvertently shorten long vowels, or for that matter, deintensify unmarked intensified consonants (e.g., 한자 /hanqca/, 결정 /kyelqceng/)--both features that are not shown in Korean writing and also seem to get omitted in beginning-level language texts, but which lead to mispronunciation if neglected. Yours, Stefan Ewing --Forwarded Message Attachment--From: jrpking at interchange.ubc.caTo: koreanstudies at koreaweb.wsDate: Thu, 20 Sep 2007 23:15:00 -0700Subject: Re: [KS] Long vs short vowels in verb and adjective conjugationsHi Stefan: You sort of answer your own question, but the easiest way to do it this: vowel length is only distinctive in standard Korean in first syllables. So once a form that otherwise has a long vowel in first-syllable position gets pushed out of that first-syllable slot, bye-bye vowel length.
