Kids have their own Traverse!
Recreation Northwest Hosts First Annual Bellingham Kids Traverse
Now kids can be part of the Northwest Traverse Multi-Sport Series
BELLINGHAM, Wash., May 3, 2013 – Recreation Northwest, a nonprofit health and wellness event organization in Bellingham, Washington, is expanding its multi-sport race portfolio with an event geared toward 6-to-14 year-olds: the Bellingham Kids Traverse at Civic Stadum on June 29, 2013.
Now children can share in the Bellingham Traverse fun as well. The Bellingham Traverse, a multi-sport race celebrating the life cycle of wild salmon that includes running, biking and kayaking, will take place on September 21, 2013. Children are invited to participate in the Bellingham Kids Traverse, a pint-sized but appropriately challenging version of the Bellingham Traverse.
The Bellingham Kids Traverse will mimic the Bellingham Traverse in its course set up. Participants can complete the course as a Chinook (soloist), Coho (tandem team), or Chum (relay team). The Kids Traverse will start at Civic Field with a 1 mi. run through Salmon Woods, then a 1.5 mi. mountain bike around Civic and Geri Fields, next a .5 mi. obstacle course inside Civic Stadium and finish with a .25 mi team TREK to the Mallard Ice Cream Finish Line. The top three finishers in each age group get awards, and all finishers get a Kids Traverse ribbon and ice cream.
Recreation Northwest Executive Director Todd Elsworth looks forward to the launch.
"Adults have had so much fun doing the Bellinghm Traverse for the past twelve years, and we want to give kids the same opportunity with the Bellingham Kids Traverse," Elsworth says. "Recreation Northwest is always looking to get the entire family outdoors."
A portion of the 2013 Bellingham Kids Traverse proceeds will to the Whatcom Family YMCA. Register online at: BellinghamKidsTraverse.com

Recreation Northwest announces the recipient of The One 2013 Olympia Traverse partnership: Friends of Capitol Forest.
Each year, Recreation Northwest chooses a local non-profit to be beneficiary of the multi-sport Olympia Traverse. This recipient, known as The One, is chosen based on commitment to the community through their work and the programs they offer. Recreation Northwest also considers organizations who have been directly involved with the race and who will continue to use this as an awareness and fundraising opportunity for themselves.

Recreation Northwest will also be donating to the organization's cause, and offering Friends of Capitol Forest two company team slots so they can compete alongside the community in the Olympia Traverse.

Announcing Padden Mountain Pedal
Recreation Northwest adds Padden Mountain Pedal to Event Portfolio
BELLINGHAM, Wash., April 29, 2013 – Recreation Northwest, a nonprofit health and wellness event organization in Bellingham, Washington, expands its race portfolio to include the Padden Mountain Pedal. Recreation Northwest produces sustainable events that promote public health and wellness, showcase the region's recreational amenities and connect businesses and nonprofit organizations in the Pacific Northwest. Executive Director Todd Elsworth is confident that hosting the July 14, 2013 Padden Mountain Pedal at Lake Padden will engage the active Bellingham and regional cycling communities.
This race, which began in 1993, presents a wonderful challenge for mountain bikers of all ages and abilities. Mark Peterson has been Race Director for the Padden Mountain Pedal for the past 20 years, and will remain on as Race Director in partnership with Recreation Northwest.
"I am proud to be partnering with Recreation Northwest so the Padden Mountain Pedal will continue on as the cornerstone of cross country mountain bike racing in the Pacific Northwest for many years to come," Peterson said. "I'm ecstatic to continue on as Race Director while Recreation Northwest handles all the other details that make for a successful event. Recreation Northwest has the experience, logistical support and resources that were paramount qualifications in my search for a great partner. There is no doubt in my mind that this partnership will keep the longest standing mountain bike race in the Pacific Northwest relevant and vibrant well into the future."
Elsworth expects the 2013 Padden Mountain Pedal to draw 250 riders. Lake Padden boasts a scenic course, and various age and ability brackets make this race accessible to the entire community. Youth cyclists are invited to hop in the saddle as well, and there will be a free kids race at the event for children 10 and under.
Elsworth said under the board's leadership, and with the efforts of dedicated volunteers, the new organization is well equipped to host the Padden Mountain Pedal and to pursue its goals of encouraging public health and the stewardship of open spaces through community recreation events.
Recreation Northwest produces three multi-sport adventure relay races: the Bellingham Traverse, Olympia Traverse and the new Bellingham KIDS Traverse.

Help out the Chuckanuts- Lost Antler Trail Work Parties April 27-28 and May 4-5
Fellow Footsters,
I hope you can join us sometime over the next two weekends (April 27-28 and May 4-5) as we finish up the last couple sections of the coolest new trail in the Chuckanuts, the Rock Trail (A.K.A. Lost Antler Trail). Whether you've already helped and been snared by the beauty of the place, or totally missed out on previous occasions, come on out and be part of the story.
Tools, gloves, hardhats and cookies provided. As always, dress for the weather and bring lunch. Hiking or work boots recommended. Plan on descending and re-climbing about 100 fabulous new timber and gravel stairs. There's an overhanging cliff available in case we need to duck out of the rain for lunch.
We'll be up there this Saturday and Sunday and the following weekend as well (REI volunteers will also be joining us on May 4). Meet at 9:00 am sharp at the Gates Overlook at the end of the Cleator Road.
Directions: Head 4 miles south of Fairhaven, turn left on Hiline Road (before the fire station), which becomes Cleator Road; follow the bumpy road to its end near the top of the ridge. To carpool, meet in Fairhaven at 11th and McKenzie by 8:30 am. Volunteers do not need a parking pass. We'll wrap up and be back to the cars by 2:00 pm.
A handful of us will also be working on the trail several days next week, so drop me a line if you want to join us then and we'll coordinate schedules.
Feel free to invite others. No experience necessary!
An RSVP is helpful, but not required (email, phone or text, 202-758-8802).
May the tread be with you!

In late 2010, the Mayor of Barcelona announced his vision for the city centre to become CO2 and emissions free within four years. A joint project was formed under Cluster Moto with support from the Catalan administration and in collaboration with Barca University. The result is the MIUS electric scooter by Rieju - an alternative for individual lightweight transport. The Rieju MIUS (pronounced 'my us') is one of the most efficient, functional and green urban scooters available for personal or fleet use.
As an eco designer it won't come as a surprise that I'm no petrol head motoring journalist but I have had the chance to drive a number of pure electric cars over the years - many with varying degrees of success and just a little anxiety.
Chargemaster will be displaying their POLAR charging point at the 2012 Eco-Rally start line. All the electric entrants in this year's Eco-Rally will make use of existing charging points around Oxford in preparation for the 65 mile trip to London. The growing network of charging points will give Oxford one of the highest densities of charging points anywhere in Europe, courtesy of the POLAR network. All of these sites will soon provide the ability to fast charge suitably equipped cars at a rate over twice as fast as standard charging. POLAR is the UK's national, privately-funded, electric car charging infrastructure expected to cover the 100 largest towns and cities across the country in the near future.
POD Point is Europe's leading supplier of electric vehicle charging hardware and software, and has supplied over 3,000 charge points for public, home and workplace use to date. POD Point has just announced the launch of the largest UK PAYG charging network.
Spain's green racing pioneers Quimera Responsible Racing and the UK's Alex Letteriello and his small team at Evelio have joined forces to develop an all-electric drift-racer. The AEDC (aka K1 Evelio) is capable of quietly speeding from zero to 60 mph (96.5 km/h) in just 3.2 seconds, has an average range of 150 miles (241.4 km) per charge and is expected to reach speeds of 170 mph (273.5 km/h). Powertrain can be ramped up to 250kW. The vehicle complies with all sanctioned safety regulations.
The EV Investor Club Award for the Deal of the Year is open for voting. Anyone may vote for the winner of the award. Social media will account for one third of the total votes. To vote simply:
"Zero electric motorcycles are very important technology... I love the financial side of these motorcycles because they cost less than one cent per mile to operate and you get a 10% Federal tax credit...

When I received a sneak peek of today's feature in my inbox… I was smitten at first glance. Hellllllo Gorgeous! A refined yet rustic dessert table filled with scrumptious mini desserts AND a stunning cake! All created by the same bakery. Pale rose cream cheese icing with a delicate ripple pattern that almost mimics the ripples of the nearby lake. Dusty peach sugar flowers so dainty and quaint. Arranged in a vintage, silk-lined suitcase. It's enough to make a girl feel faint! If you can't tell, I've completely fallen for this Romantic Rose & Peach Dessert Display created by Cocoa & Fig…
Laurie from Cocoa & Fig shared a little background about this display:
"This soft and romantic cake and dessert table is a nice twist on the vintage theme. We knew right away that this would be a fun table to put together. The bride, groom, and bride's mother came in with lots of ideas. And it didn't hurt that the MOB owns a vintage furniture store!"
On top of the incredible style and gorgeous cake, this display included some delightful mini desserts! Everything from the light pink macarons to southern banana pudding dessert shooters {shown above} to dark chocolate shooters and carrot cupcakes! I think I see why Cocoa & Fig calls these next little gems Sinfully Chocolate Mini Cupcakes! I spy chocolate with chocolate topped with more chocolate….
Black velvet cake lollipops dipped in white chocolate… such a gorgeous contrast in one little bite! Before we go, let's take one more peek at the cake, shall we?
Are we officially gushing over this? I have to say YES, we are! I love, love, love the cake. The suitcase. The cake in the suitcase! All surrounded by gorgeously tempting mini desserts and shooters.
A special thank you to Laurie at Cocoa & Fig for sharing their Romantic Rose & Peach Dessert Display with us today. You have us swooning!

I love everything about this! I simply adore cakes that are simple but still make a statement. And the color? I'm dying over it
Definitely LOVE the cake in the suitcase! What a unique presentation! When a talented baker and an adventurous couple get together, great things can happen!
I love all!! So incredible…You make the perfect day
I have to agree!! This set up is simply spectacular! I could just imagine ALL the work that went into this dessert table. Well done!
Speechless….it is sooo…beautiful. I just adore the cake..
I actually find the cake IN the suitcase pretty impractical. Why would you want to loose an entire tier like that? The cake is way too pretty to be hidden like that!
Stunning cake.Cocoa and fig. Very yummy.
Good picture as well. -
Very cute blog! I wish I had the patience to make my food look as delicious as yours!

Senate panel OKs bill requiring candidates to declare felony, misdemeanor convictions
BY BARBARA HOBEROCK World Capitol Bureau
Thursday, February 14, 2013
2/14/13 at 7:16 AM
OKLAHOMA CITY - A Senate panel on Wednesday passed a measure that would require those convicted of felonies and misdemeanors to make it public on candidate declarations for office.
Senate Bill 287, by Sen. Susan Paddack, D-Ada, heads to the Senate floor for consideration.
Paddack said the measure would not preclude a candidate with a criminal background from filing for candidacy.
But the public has a right to know what is in the person's background, she said.
"Public officials are held to a higher standard," Paddack said.
Under the measure, the person would be required to disclose if he or she had ever been convicted of a felony or misdemeanor or if they are named in an outstanding arrest warrant.
The name of the offense, date of conviction or issuance of the outstanding warrant would be required as well under the measure.
The candidate would also have to list the date he or she was restored to eligibility to run for office.
A person convicted of a misdemeanor involving embezzlement or a felony can't hold public office for 15 years following the completion of the sentence, said Paul Ziriax, State Election Board secretary.
Paddack said the application for a gubernatorial appointment to boards and commissions asks for far more specific information in addition to criminal background convictions. The application form asks if the person has ever been arrested or subject of an investigation or complaint by any local, state or federal law enforcement agency.
The panel also passed Senate Bill 282 that would allow for military and tribal identifications without an expiration date to be used for voter identification purposes, said Sen. John Ford, R-Bartlesville, the author.
Other forms of identification that have an expiration date must be current to be used to vote, Ziriax said. For example, a person could not use an expired driver's license to vote.
The measure heads to the Senate floor.
The Senate Rules Committee also passed a measure, Senate Bill 233, that would double the deposits required for a recount when the result margin in an election is 10 percent or greater.
Currently, $600 is required for the first 3,000 ballots and $600 for each additional 6,000 ballots. Candidates for state or federal office must pay an additional $300 when filing their recount petition with the State Election Board.
Ziriax said during the last election cycle, there were several races with wide margins where recounts were requested and the results were confirmed.
"If it is such a wide margin and a low probability of success, it is not a good use of taxpayer dollars or the time for county election boards to conduct those," Ziriax said.
The measure heads to the Senate.

New Delhi, Aug 25: After all party meeting which held on Wednesday evening, all the political party and parliamentarians have come with one voice on Thursday from the parliament. They have made a respectful appeal to social activist Anna Hazare to withdraw his fast.
Prime Minister Manmohan Singh went one step ahead by saying the Jan Lokpal Bill would be discussed in the House. He told that the government is ready to debate in Parliament all versions of the Lokpal Bill in circulation at present.
The Prime Minister also added that Parliament will discuss the weak and strong points of the Jan Lokpal, including with all other anti-corruption Bills like NCPRI Bill, Dr Jai Prakash Narayan thesis on anti-corruption and send entire record for consideration of the Standing Committee.
He expressed that his government has an open mind on the issue of Lokpal Bill issue but he made it clear that Bill would be passed only through proper Parliamentary procedures. He added that it is our collective responsibility to find credible solutions to fight corruption.
The prime Minister calls an impassioned appeal to Hazare that I respect Anna Hazare's idealism. I applaud and salute him. His life is much too precious, I urge him to end his fast. He told that had made his point and his life was precious and valuable for the nation.
The leader of Opposition Sushma Swaraj has also supported PM's appeal to Hazare to end his fast. She assured him that the opposition would ensure that the govt passed a strong Lokpal Bill. The Speaker Meera kumar has also made an appeal on behalf of the House and the Lok Sabha has also passed a resolution urging Hazare to end the fast.

Music videoclip for song Dizzy of the band Like Elliot did. Their music is totally home made, very honest and not pretentious at all so I tried to do the same with the videoclip. And they had 20$ budget which we spent on lunch... I agree to do it for free because they are good friends. I shot the clip all by myself in my studio using my canon 5D, one 250w light, a black fabric and a leaf blower... That's it...

Director : Karim Charlebois-Zarffa
Camera : Karim Charlebois-Zariffa
Editing : Cédric Laurenty (intern)
Assistant : Jean-Constant Guigue (intern)
This is the CD design I did for the band Like Elliot did. Simon Duhamel took front and back portraits of the band. Then I hired Isabelle Hétu, a local portrait painter, to paint them. Then I took an old wallpaper illustration and photoshopped it to fit the design, and also did a custom type for the cover and the inside. As the band is transparent, folk and authentic, I tried, for the front and back, a technique to show that they have nothing to hide, the wallpaper feels for the folk side and the painting almost too realist represents authenticity and personality. The CD was really home made, recorded in Catherine's kitchen and in Francois's apartment. I printed the visuals on an inkjet printer on white stickers, and then I cut them and ordered the cardboards. Catherine folded, glued, sticked the print and stamped the CD of each 200 albums. Love the portraits!!! Thanks Isabelle.

I guess you could label the music of Ital, bka the Brooklyn-based producer Ital, as "house." I guess. But house music implies dancing, which is something you can do with Ital's music only sometimes. Take a track like "Boi" from his new record Dream On, which starts out as a Jungle tune, but quickly devolves into the realm of the discursive. Then there's the destructive Juke of "Eat Shit (Waterfalls Mix)," which takes an already hard-to-dance-to-style and asks us which parts of the skittering rhythms and seemingly-random bass stabs which actually need to dance to, while retaining the framework of the Chicago style.
Ital accomplishes this because though he uses computers to create his music, he's working against technology rather than with it. He produces primarily in Audacity, one of the most rudimentary pieces of music software available. For someone with a strict sense of musical ethics (Martin-McCormick started out in the band Black Eyes who were so DC Hardcore they put out a record on Dischord), Ital is a ridiculously nice person. He and I spoke over Skype, discussing his production techniques, the temptation to shoot for mega-electronic festivals, and then he told me a story about being pressured into trying to sell Indian food to strangers in Ireland. In fact he's so nice that he gave us "XLstFil," an exclusive track to run along with this interview. Stream it below and see what he has to say about pretty much everything.
NOISEY: What were you drinking when you made the new record?
ITAL: Drank a lot of coffee. I had a dog-walking job for a while and right when I got back from a tour right around Valentines Day, and I was able to, for the first time in my life, quit my job to just make music. Anyway, I had gotten a percolator from my sister two Christmases before and I got super into it. I would wake up every morning and make a percolator full of coffee and kind of spend the day tinkering with the album, maybe go out for a bit and come back to mess around a bit more, but always on this insane, five-cups-of-coffee-buzz.
My apartment at the time was kind of like a cave. There was little natural light, my room was small, like, big enough just for my bed so when I'd get up I'd still just be sitting on my bed, working on the record. Anyway, very coffee vibes for sure.
How was your schedule after you didn't have any place to be and were just working on a record?
It was cool! It was great, I loved it. I had a lot of time to just walk around. I think that working gives you a lot of focus when you're like, at work all day and you come home exhausted but for me, I just found that all I'd be thinking about is what I'd rather be doing and there's this finite period of time in the evening to really hustle which is very productive but I'm also good at setting deadlines for myself, making sure that there's external forces in place, you know? Like, the label is expecting the record at a certain time, so I have to work on it.
I don't think I would thrive very well if I didn't have people who were expecting something of me. I was pretty diligent about making sure a lot of different people needed me at a lot of different places at different times. So I was playing a lot of shows. I mean it was awesome, I'd recommend it. Working on tunes, not a bad experience.
You know, I didn't go to a cabin or anything and the record didn't take 24/7 to work on it. I'd try to work on it everyday and try to get a song a week done.
What was going through your head for this album? Were you thinking, 'I want to make an album about…something'? Or just like, 'I'll see what happens?'
I knew I wanted to make an album. I knew I wanted it to be pretty raw. I made the last record and I hadn't played that many shows at that point and it was sort of this heady experience engaging in it. Then when I made the new one it was after playing ten weeks of tour, a bunch of shows in New York, and was like, 'alright let's do this, let's fucking make this thing rip.' After that, it was pretty clear, it was mainly taking out the parts of the last album I liked and the parts of the live show I liked and just cutting out all the bullshit--just focusing on working really hard on those things.
Those things--to be more specific--were that I wanted a lot of drums, I knew I wanted a lot of clearly articulated sounds, no washiness, I wanted it to be a pretty alienating environment, I wanted it to be revolting at times, but of course, I wanted to have some clear lean, some melodic framework. I also wanted there to be emphasis on shitty computer techniques, like the timing stretching stuff I used a lot on Hive Mind, and see if there was a way to integrate this obvious signifier of Web 2.0, the degradation of the psyche, etc.
It's not like you're going very primitive, but maybe it's almost a primitivistic use of the techniques and tools of electronic music.
In a way. I think there are two ends of the spectrum that interest me; One is the sonic auteur, people who are deep, deep, deep in the gear zone and have a complete grasp of how to sculpt tones, maybe with modular shit, or just like, deep into synthesizer knowledge and they have amazing sounding records because of their impeccable command of their gear and all of those endless possibilities. On the other hand, like me, who's building something essentially from scrap.
What program do you use?
Audacity. I use some Logic too but I don't like working inside Logic. The reason is that Logic as a program is essentially, depending on how you look at it, the nice version of GarageBand, or GarageBand is the more user-friendly version of Logic. Either way, they're both programs that have been designed so that you can really quickly and easily start making something that sounds like music or at least, your image of "professionally-produced music."
I find that the complete lack of learning curve required to make something that sounds not unlike something you'd like is a really turn-off to me.
The interfaces on programs like Ableton allow you to not have to be decisive, mainly because of the way that you can pencil in an envelope change or a volume change, go back, realize you didn't like that, and have the freedom to change it. But in Audacity you're like, editing the software every step of the way and that's totally stupid and really annoying but the upside of that is when you make an edit you have to commit to it because otherwise if you want to make a change later, you've done 30 edits and theoretically, now must undo all of them.
That sort of decisiveness creates a feeling that's similar to the decisiveness of in the moment, off the cuff playing. Even though I can go back and hyper-edit everything more, there's all these layers of snap decisions I've made that are embedded in the music.
In the middle of those two spectrums that I'm talking about, I see a lot of people making music with computers that doesn't sound bad, sounds totally fine, but doesn't sound particularly unique--just like a lot of mediocre music in the middle. When I hear about these dudes on laptops, I don't know, it just feels like these programs are making a lot of subtle, subliminal decisions on their behalf.
Audacity still, in so many ways, makes a lot of decisions for you. You know, I appreciate how it limits you, and how much that makes me pour myself into it.
So yeah, it's sort of techo-primitivism but not just for its own sake. For me, it makes music that feels better than if I tried to do it on Logic, 'cause that's always an epic fail.
Say one day you decided to make a song in Logic or Abelton--how would it sound different from a typical Ital song?
Well, I don't know. The thing is that I'm now writing a lot of my songs live—I'm using an MPC in my live set-ups so I'm doing a lot of my writing on the road and that's kind of a different interface too, but they kind of end up feeling the same. The main thing that happens in Audacity is a lot of hyper-editing and a lot of use of these really shitty effects in ways that are probably not how they were intended to be used.
I figure the first 50 or at least the first 20 songs will sound like shit. They might have a similar structure or something like that but I'm not super familiar with the effects.
I'm not afraid of, I'm wary (which I guess is a subset of fear) of starting to use something more high-powered and have it kind of freeze me--draining all the ideas out my ideas so I could be like, 'now I can make a techno song' and it just sounds like a techno song and people could be like, 'oh that's fun,' you know? No. As opposed to doing something that's like where I'm going--I don't know where the fuck this is going but it is at least, a serious sonic adventure for me, which is usually how it ends up being.
It must be tempting to say, "Fuck it, I'm gonna make tunes that'll get me onstage at Ultra."
Every once in a while I'm tempted by that, absolutely. Every time I sort of hit against that temptation it usually backfires and makes me want to go into something super personal and outside of anybody's box.
Since I started playing punk bands and stuff like that, I still kind of feel like that's my root language or root vibe. The idea of crossing over and being like a techno guy who just churns out techno tracks seems even more boring and shitty than staying in punk bands and churning out punk tracks, you know what I mean? If I'm going to churn out anything I'd rather it be in something I was born and raised in because then at least I'm like, in my mother tongue. In some senses I feel like Ital and the zone I'm exploring has less to do with switching over to techno or house or anything like that and more with expanding musical horizons to be post-genre or pre-genre. The genre's not a thing it's more about using a couple tools like a four and four and kick drum as a new more specific jumping off point towards wide open musical exploration.
Do you listen to your own music if you're like, out for a jog?
No. I listen to my music so much when I'm working on it.
Of course.
I don't jog but if I walk around and maybe get like, a stray dog chasing me and it becomes a slight jog situation--it might be playing on my iPod. No, for me once it's done it's kind of just done. I do DJ it sometimes though which is kind of an interesting test to see how potent it is on the dance floor because when I'm making it I'm super hyped in my head and my internal dialogue is just like, "this is slamming." Sometimes I've DJ-ed my songs out and it's actually worked and it's very rewarding and vindicating but sometimes it's epic fail. With the exception of one or two songs, I'm always thinking this is the heavy-hitter.
Can you tell me a weird story from a tour?
Hang on. What's happened? Hmm. Fuck.
The big bummer that happened last night in Paris was when we were trying to intersect with our friends from the band Protect-U and they were playing a different club we decided it was getting too late and ended up not linking up but we get a phone call this morning and apparently all their gear got stolen!
Oh fuck, that sucks.
Yeah, big bummer. That isn't really our story though. Oh! Speaking of stray dogs, we went to Russia and had this insane show. We got super delayed because there was fog all over Krakow, so we miss our connection and end up getting into Moscow at 2:30 AM and then the club at like, 3 AM. This was the rawiest club. I'm talking about like two shitty speakers, no mixer (that I desperately needed), super janky visuals, fog machine just blasting fog out the ass. Then it actually got pretty crazy even though I played at like 4 AM, anyway, we're having these vodka-soaked conversations with non-English speakers, walk outside, and there's like this stray, semi-aggressive dog, roaming around the premises, like a wild wolf hanging out. Then we got in a gypsy cab, I tried to make burgers for everyone and it cost me $125, jammed with Jamal Moss of Hieroglyphic Being who rolled up with all these new songs on his iPod touch he was gonna play without practicing them. It was pretty crazy.
Dublin though, a lot of people are crazy. I was the butt of so many drunk men's mockery. My girlfriend was using the bathroom at this Indian restaurant and I was just outside waiting for her when these four guys roll up and ask me like, "Is this place good? Is this the best one in Dublin?" I was just like, "I don't know, I just got her today,' so they go on this tear about how I'm the worst salesmen and shit. So she walks out and they were like, "Oh you're waiting for your girlfriend!' I'm just like, "What? Yes? No!" Anyway, they stagger back into the hotel we're also staying at and I asked them if they enjoyed their dinner, 'gentlemen,' and they were looking way sheepish cuz I totally wanted to punch them out.
But people really do that, you know, try to convince people to come into their restaurant and shit.
But yeah I wasn't doing all that. I was just some indie dude in a fucking parka.

In addition to catering to a variety of palettes, the Taste of Chicago in Grant Park treats music lovers' ears to a daily, diverse lineup of internationally renowned and local artists from June 24 - July 3, 2011, at the Petrillo Music Shell. This year, four of the City's annual lakefront music festivals – Viva! Chicago Latin Music Festival, the Chicago Country Music Festival, Celtic Fest Chicago and the Chicago Gospel Music Festival – will be incorporated into the Taste of Chicago, rather than be planned as stand-alone events. On each of these specific days – Viva! Chicago Latin Music Day (June 24), Gospel Music Day (June 26), Celtic Music Day (June 29) and Country Music Day (July 1) – patrons can relax in one of the themed dining pavilions throughout the event and enjoy music, culture, cuisine and cooking demonstrations. Opening night, Friday, June 24, Los Horoscopos de Durango kicks off the music lineup at 5 p.m. on Viva! Chicago Latin Music Day is sponsored in part by Univision Radio. The band's origins trace back to 30 years ago in Chicago, and they are now one of the most popular groups both in the U.S. and Mexico for Regional Mexican music. They were nominated for a Latin Grammy in 2004 and 2005 for Album of the Year. Artists for Saturday, June 25 are to be announced. The tentative show time is 6 p.m., and the concert is presented by Bud Light. Sunday, June 26 is Gospel Music Day sponsored in part by Inspiration 1390AM. Choirs, groups, and soloists provide a range of treats from the soulful tunes of Reverend Milton Brunson's Thompson Community Singers and everything in between up until the Grammy, Dove and Stellar Award-winning artist, the incomparable Donald Lawrence & Companytakes the stage. Monday, June 27 at 6 p.m. is Broadway in Chicago presented by United Airlines. Patrons will be treated to a ""Taste"" of the Best of Broadway headlined by the casts of Beauty and The Beast, Million Dollar Quartet, West Side Story, Mary Poppins, Memphis, The Addams Family and others. ABC7's Janet Davies of 190 North hosts the evening. Program is subject to change. Tuesday, June 28, The Lemonheads play the Petrillo Music Shell. Evan Dando, best known as singer/songwriter/guitarist of The Lemonheads, will be performing an intimate set featuring songs from his solo album and plenty of classic Lemonheads tunes that put him on the musical map, such as the cover of "Mrs. Robinson," "Great Big No," and selections from It's a Shame About Ray. Dando is touring in support of his most recent covers album Varshons, which features a wide swath of genres, jumping from early British psychedelic to Dutch electronica. Chicago-based power pop band Material re-Issue, formerly Material Issue, opens for The Lemonheads at 5 p.m. featuring new singer-guitarist, Phil Angotti. Material re-Issue is the 20th anniversary edition of the band's acclaimed debut, International Pop Overthrow, featuring such favorites as "Valerie Loves Me" and "Diane," plus eight bonus tracks. Wednesday, June 29 Natalie MacMaster headlines Celtic Music Day starting at 5 p.m. The Canadian fiddler has performed with such artists as The Chieftains, Paul Simon, Faith Hill, and Luciano Pavarotti and has appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Late Night with Conan O'Brien, the ABC 2002 New Year's Eve Special and Good Morning America. As a musician, she ranges from traditional folk to Texas and bluegrass swing, folk rock and new age, modern and old roots. Liz Carroll, John Doyle and John Williams open for Natalie MacMaster. Liz Carroll and John Doyle were nominated for a Grammy in 2010 for their duet album, Double Play. John Williams was born and raised on the southwest side of Chicago and spent his summers during college performing in Ireland. He formed the groundbreaking Solas in 1995 with several musicians including John Doyle, and the group garnered two Grammy nominations for their 1996 and 1997 releases. Eight-time Grammy Award-winning artist Natalie Cole performs Thursday, June 30 at 5:30 p.m. The concert is presented by V103. When her seminal Unforgettable…With Love album came out in 1991, the jazz collection set a new standard for reinventing the Great American Songbook. Yet she continues to astonish with her vocal dexterity – ranging from R&B, pop and jazz – and her intimate, knowing way with a lyric and melody. Her canon includes such hits as "This Will Be (An Everlasting Love)," "Inseparable," "Pink Cadillac" and "Miss You Like Crazy." Friday, July 1, living legend Loretta Lynn headlines Country Music Day sponsored in part by US99.5. Last year marked the 50th anniversary of Lynn's arrival on the music scene with her 1960 debut single, "I'm a Honky Tonk Girl." As millions who read her 1976 autobiography or saw its Oscar winning 1980 film treatment are aware, Lynn is a Coal Miner's Daughter who was raised in dire poverty. She went on to record empowering female statements as "You Wanna Give Me Lift" (1970), "I Wanna Be Free" (1971), "We've Come a Long Way Baby" (1978), and "One's on the Way" (1972). She and Conway Twitty had a number of hugely popular duet performances from 1970-1982. The industry showered her with awards and accolades, including two Grammy Awards for Van Lear Rose in 2004, a collaboration with Jack White of The White Stripes. Court Yard Hounds, featuring Martie Maguire and Emily Robison – the two sisters from Dixie Chicks -- kick off the night at 5 p.m. This side project to Dixie Chicks features personal songs that go back to their roots as a country pop band. Saturday, July 2, The Jayhawks headline at 5 p.m. in a concert sponsored in part by 93XRT. The Minneapolis-based band emerged during the mid-'80s as a rootsy Americana band that fused rock, country and folk in the post-punk era. Their timeless and modern sound combined with their initial prolific output sustained them and their loyal following 25 years later. Chicago is one of the lucky cities that The Jayhawks will play as they tour in support of the January 2011 reissue of their first two classic albums for American Recordings, 1992's Hollywood Town Hall and 1995's The Green Grass, now featuring several bonus tracks. Everest opens for The Jayhawks at 3 p.m. While one can draw some clues from the folks they've toured with – Neil Young, Wilco, My Morning Jacket – ultimately Everest is simply a great rock 'n' roll band in the classic, open-minded mold, something boldly apparent on their sophomore release, On Approach on Vapor Records. Sunday, July 3 Greyson Chance performs the concert at 3 p.m. presented by Radio Disney AM 1300 Chicago. He garnered national attention after posting his performance of Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" on YouTube and following it with an appearance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show." Triple threat actor, singer and dancer Shane Harper opens for Greyson Chance in support of his recently released self-titled debut album. Harper is a principal dancer in High School Musical 2 and is on the Disney Channel's sitcom, Good Luck Charlie. Taste aims to enhance the customer experience this year with more dining pavilions and seating throughout the entire event. New Taste parking lots are available for a special discounted rate. Take the free McDonald's Family Trolley from the Taste lots to the event. See www.tasteofchicago.us for more details, lot locations and maps. Take public transportation to the Taste.

How is ADHD
usually diagnosed?
Many of the symptoms of ADHD occur from time to time in everyone. In those with ADHD, the frequency or severity of these symptoms impairs functioning both at home and at school or work. Although some computerized "tests of attention" and pen-and-paper tests for ADHD are available, no physical test exists to diagnose ADHD. Therefore, a diagnosis is generally based on the subjective reports of parents, teachers, and/or patients. In the USA, criteria for diagnosis are laid down by the American Psychiatric Association in their Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV ), 4th edition.According to DSM-IV, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) or one of its subtypes can be diagnosed if the child shows certain characteristics for a period of six months or more, with at least some of the symptoms beginning before age seven. Symptoms must occur in more than one setting - such as at school or work and home. The symptoms are subjective, generally described by a parent, and require:
(A) Six or more symptoms of lack of attention, as paraphrased below:
- Fails to pay attention, makes mistakes
- Difficulty staying on tasks
- Does not seem to listen
- Fails to finish things
- Trouble organizing things
- Does not like homework or schoolwork
- Loses things
- Easily distracted
- Forgetful
(B) Six or more symptoms of hyperactivity-impulsivity, as paraphrased below:
- Fidgets
- Leaves seat in class
- Runs around, is restless
- Difficulty playing quietly
- Acts like "driven by a motor"
- Talks too much
- Blurts out answers
- Can't wait his turn
- Interrupts others
For people who don't fit neatly into the categories of ADHD-attentional, ADHD-hyperactive, or ADHD-combined, there is another diagnosis called "ADHD, not otherwise specified." Diagnoses such as ODD (Oppositional Defiant Disorder), Conduct Disorder and Explosive Disorder are descriptive of their major problem symptoms; medical treatment offered is often the same as for ADHD.Many of the symptoms listed above overlap. For example, how would you separate the symptoms "losing things," "forgetful," and "having trouble organizing?" Are they really three separate symptoms?
It is unfortunate that the DSM-IV does not appear to stress ruling out physical symptoms.

More About Lynnfield Public Library
The community of Lynnfield has had its own public library since Lynnfield Social Library was built back in 1795. The town's current public library building was constructed in 1904 out of a former school building on Summer Street across from Town Hall, and the current Children's Room still contains part of the original school building.
Since the 1950s, the library has seen many additions and expansions, including the construction of a mezzanine, a ramp and an elevator. Obtaining a library card is free for any residents of Massachusetts, and the library is connected to the NOBLE (North of Boston Library Exchange) network, which allows patrons to request books and other materials from libraries within the 28-member consortium. The Lynnfield library offers thousands of fiction and non-fiction books, music CDs, DVDs and videos, periodicals and reference materials and also provides free wireless internet service.

Great product
posted 4 years ago
my friend's grandparents bought this gate to use at the top of their stairs that lead down to the basement. There is no door there, so they had to come up with something else to keep my friend's children from falling down the stairs when they came for a visit. I know this product was meant to help secure your fury friends, however, as you can see, it has many other uses too. It is great because it just squeezes into places basically. It doesn't cause any damage to your walls!
Pros: safe, no damage to walls
Cons: nothing

This gate has been a savior of new carpet. It was easy to install, is convenient to walk through, and looks better in the house than the standard wooden one. Thank goodness someone invented this. I was tired of falling over the old gates.
Pros: walk thru door, easy install, expandable
Cons: door could be a bit wider

Keeping dogs in one part of the house is a hassle, but if you must, this gate is the answer. Easy to set up and use and strong enough for large dogs to jump up against, unlike baby gates.
Pros: Easy of use
Cons: Still a hassle
