ONARCHITECTURE- Jilted park: Forest Hills funding snatched
This master plan for the renovation of Forest Hills Park will have to be shelved, as funds for the project were reallocated due to "financial realities."
Just weeks before construction was to begin on the $750,000 renovation of 7.1-acre Forest Hills Park in the Fifeville neighborhood, the city elected to defer the project and reallocate the funds, specifically to the $10 million Smith Pool project. At a City Council meeting last month, Parks & Rec director Mike Svetz deemed the switch necessary because of "financial realities" facing the city. Mayor Dave Norris applauded the decision, commending Svetz and City Manager Gary O'Connell for taking a "hard look across the board at capital expenditures."
What a difference a year makes.
Last year, the City had no problem spending $400,000 on the renovation of McGuffey Park, a little 1.1-acre park and playground next door to the McGuffey Art Center on Second Street NW. In fact, the City Planning Commission awarded a neighborhood group called the Friends of McGuffey Park an "outstanding neighborhood effort" award for raising an additional $224,000 (the total cost of the renovation was nearly $700,000) for the project and shepherding it through the system.
The small toddler park, completed last fall, features state-of-the-art playground equipment, a wall mosaic celebrating donors, beautiful long wooden benches, extensive landscaping, and a "weeping water wall" for children to splash in.
At the time, some questioned the fiscal responsibility of spending so much on such a small amenity.
"Spending $400,000 on that one little park is a travesty," said Charlottesville resident Kevin Cox. "There aren't enough cops on the street, and the City wastes money on a playground."
Longtime North Downtown resident Frances Walton, 62, thought there were "better uses for the money," like undergrounding utilities, and believed the push for the park was "generational," spear-headed as it was by North Downtown's new crop of residents, many of them young moms.
However, no one in city government questioned the $400,000 expenditure or considered spending it on more obviously decrepit parks like Forest Hills. In fact, when the Hook ran stories in which citizens questioned the cost, two McGuffey Friends accused the paper of "gratuitously trying to stir up controversy by placing a negative spin." (Another suggested in a letter that the Hook's coverage must be a "vendetta" originating from a romantic jilting by one the "wonderful women" who founded the Friends.)
At the time, Svetz defended the expenditure in more sober terms, saying it should be seen in the context of all the planned improvements to the city's park system.
"We've also completed a master plan for Forest Hills Park and currently have funding of $751,000 for that park," said Svetz, noting the considerable design input from the neighborhood. "As you can see, McGuffey isn't all that's being done to improve the park system in Charlottesville."
As it turns out, McGuffey may have been the last city park to get an extreme make-over for the foreseeable future. In addition to Forest Hills, ongoing plans to improve Rives and Azalea parks have also been also deferred.
Although Svetz is away this week, City spokesperson Ric Barrick says there is still hope for Forest Hills Park.
"We will hold off on Forest Hills until we find ourselves in a more comfortable financial situation," he says. "But it is on hold and not off the table."
West Main make-over
If all goes according to plan, West Main Street from JPA to Ridge/McIntire will be getting a long-awaited make-over.
Thanks to a joint project with a private developer, the City, and UVA, the sidewalks will be widened, trees and new lights will be installed, and utilities will be buried. Developer Bob Englander, who is building a 9-story mixed-use building on the corner of West Main and Ridge/McIntire, is kicking in a $300,000 proffer for a re-zoning consideration that will cover the portion from Ridge to 4th streets. UVA is putting in $750,000 for its portion from JPA to Roosevelt Brown Boulevard, and the City is kicking in $1 million for the rest.
According to Neighborhood Development chief Jim Tolbert, to ensure continuity, the entire project is being guided by a single master plan already completed by the Philadelphia-based design firm Wallace, Roberts & Todd, despite multiple designers for each section. Although Tolbert says a designer has not been chosen yet for the City's portion, he notes that UVA has hired an architect who will begin working on the streetscape.
Sprucing up 2nd Street
Unlike Englander, developers Lee Danielson and Halsey Minor won't be chipping in a dime for their nearby streetscaping project. Although the contractors building the $30 million Landmark Hotel on the Downtown Mall will do the work to fix the streetscaping between it and the Live Arts building at 2nd Street SE, the City will foot the $200,000 bill. Again, Tolbert says the project will follow design guidelines already laid out by Wallace, Roberts & Todd.
Eventually, the streetscaping will be improved beyond the railroad tracks as the Gleason condo project, which broke ground last month, and a Coran Capshaw office building beside ACAC, already topped off, move forward.
"The design by WRT goes all the way to Monticello Road," says Tolbert, "and the intent here is that developers incorporate the plan in their projects as they go forward."

It's said that the greatest artists know when to step back from their work and declare it finished. Whether it be music, or painting, or simply renovating the house, the temptation is always there to keep fiddling and refining to the point where you're actually going backwards.
It's a trick that Melbourne-based tuner Walkinshaw Performance, by and large, have down pat. Whereas some aftermarket outfits subscribe to the 'more is more' school of thought, and aren't satisfied until every single part of the vehicle has been tweaked and tuned, Walkinshaw more often than not knows how to build on a car's strength, improve its weaknesses and, crucially, know when it's unlikely to improve something.
It's an attitude that's especially important when the base vehicle in question is HSV's Gen-F GTS. Upon its release in mid-2013, it reset the benchmark in terms of how good an Aussie-built car could be in terms of power and chassis sophistication.
If there was a criticism to be levelled at the GTS, however, it's that it has never quite felt the full 430kW/740Nm; at least in terms of its similarly-powered German opposition, such as the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG S and BMW M5. With 0-100km/h in the mid-fours and a mid-12 quarter mile, it's certainly no slouch, but it's never felt quite as quick as the Euros.
Walkinshaw has attempted to rectify that with its new WP507 package, yours for $7990 supplied, fitted and tuned. Tweaks are relatively minor, amounting to a revised supercharger pulley to increase boost to 12psi from the stock nine, ceramic-coated headers, a cat-back exhaust and, of course, the obligatory ECU tune to make sure it runs as well as standard. The result is 507kW at 6200rpm and a stonking 850Nm at 4400rpm.
It feels it, too. Whereas the standard GTS is undoubtedly impressive, the WP507 is on another level. On a narrow country road, particularly if there are a few corners in the way, it feels insanely, rabidly fast, to the point that often 75 per cent throttle is more than enough.
At full noise, large numbers appear on the head-up display very quickly indeed. And full noise is an apt description, as the tuned LSX makes a lumpy racket not unlike a hard-tuned old-school small black V8.
At the strip, the WP507 reels off 0-100km/h in 4.38sec and a 12.39sec quarter mile at 189.99km/h. On a stickier surface and a cooler day (temperatures during testing were low-mid 30s) it would easily knock a couple of tenths off both times. That's not to suggest it's a handful, though. Its ability to use the extra power is a large part of why it feels so rapid; very few kilowatts are wasted in wheelspin.
It's testament to the quality of the base package that it can shrug off a 77kW/110Nm increase with no sweat. The huge AP Racing brakes cope with ease and at no point does it feel wild or unruly. What is odd, though, is that Walkinshaw swear it left the suspension alone, yet the WP507 jiggled and fidgeted over small bumps far more readily than the last GTS we drove.
Likewise, the transmission is supposedly untouched, yet no GTS ever shifted this aggressively. However, while this gives it an appealing hot-rod vibe, it would be no lesser a vehicle with the standard transmission mapping.
There's very little not to like about the WP507. The modification cost is relatively minor, it's backed by Walkinshaw's drivetrain warranty for peace of mind, and it gives the HSV GTS the power it's always felt like it's deserved. We reckon it's a fine piece of work.

Pictureka is one of the latest additions to the Hasbro Family Game Night category of Xbox Live Arcade games. It snuck out with little fanfare, a fitting marketing plan as there is very little to get excited about here. Pictureka essentially amounts to an entire game – priced at 800 MS points — where all you do is find a specific picture on a board and then press the A button.
Now that I've begun writing this review and essentially summed up the entire Pictureka experience in one sentence, I'm not sure how long I'll be able to stretch this out. I'll keep it short. Pictureka is devastatingly bad as a single player game. Like other Hasbro Family Game Night titles, there is no artificial intelligence here which means playing alone finds you without any competition in a quest to find pictures quickly. Spoilers: you win every time. There is online support through Xbox Live, but I was unable to find anybody to play with so you should expect to predominantly play this one locally.
Pictureka comes with two modes, the board game original and a new remix edition. The remix is identical, though it adds in a few twists such as a challenge where players must find a picture that corresponds to an audio clue. Up to four can join in the search for pictures or letters, though about 90% of the game is turn based. Rarely does more than one player hunt for pictures simultaneously. The challenges range from the simple (find the picture on this card) to the more complex (find four things with smoke). There's a lot of extra clutter on the screen to distract you, and any wrong guesses will penalize you a few ticks on the clock, which is how Pictureka adds stress to a simplified version of what you played in Highlights magazine while waiting in the dentist's office as a kid.
The basic premise here is bland and that's not the only weak part of Pictureka. With so much of the game turn based, the winner often comes down to who goes first. That is, of course, unless something unfair happens. On turns where sounds of corresponding pictures are played it's oftentimes difficult to even hear the clue due to poor audio mixing. Or your opponent can just yell and you're screwed since the audio clue can't be replayed. Some challenges require players to bid on how many of a certain item they can find, but it's done through a selection process that flashes random numbers on the screen rather than any actual bidding.
Closing Comments
I can't see any reason to dish out money for Pictureka. Only small children would find the concept compelling for longer than a few moments, but you could similarly entertain them with a simple and free game of I Spy.

La Casa del Zorro enjoys a unique setting in the midst of the scenic 600,000-acre Anza-Borrego desert, a nature-land of serenity and solitude. Cradled by the Santa Rosa Mountains, towering six thousand feet over the desert floor, the resort is close to hiking trails and endless opportunities to explore unspoiled canyons, buttes, and mesas. Borrego Springs is one of the few "dark-sky communities" in the world. The skies are illuminated by millions of bright stars and galaxies due to night light restrictions. In spring, the pink and lavender Sand Verbena wildflowers cover acres of the desert floor.
Our History
a southern california classic resort
The hand-hewn beams and old adobe walls in the lobby of La Casa del Zorro are reminders of the resort's heritage. Our first guests arrived in the fall of 1933, when the resort was just a house on the old Burks Ranch.
Over the years, as more guests came to the quiet retreat, the resort began to grow. Visitors far and wide, from Los Angeles to Switzerland, from San Diego to the Netherlands, traveled to Borrego Springs to experience the rejuvenating desert, sparkling sunshine, and nights so dark and clear that the stars in the sky seemed closer to earth than anyplace else.
Decades ago, guests gathered around the kitchen table for their meals. Some even washed dishes. Today, fine dining in the Butterfield Dining Room and the Rose Garden Terrace is a hallmark of the resort, and so is the custom of families returning to visit as the years go by. Many of our guests and staff have known the resort since they were children, and the connections between La Casa del Zorro and the neighboring communities are strong.
In 1960, newspaper magnate James Copley purchased La Casa del Zorro. New guest accommodations were added, the first swimming pool was built, and the dining room was expanded.
Today, continued thoughtful and extensive renovations, which respect the unique character and charm of the property, capture the historic echoes of the past. Present day luxuries and amenities, including a full-service spa, complement the essence of La Casa del Zorro… an inviting retreat for people who love the outdoors, appreciate gracious hospitality, and value the opportunity to spend their time in a stunning natural setting.

First map of floating plastics to help save baby turtles
(Phys.org) -- A PhD student at The University of Western Australia is creating the first map to show the distribution of floating marine plastics in Australian waters, and models that chart the likely pathways of these plastics and sea turtle hatchlings.
"The early life of sea turtles occurs at the ocean's surface, where there's an increasing amount of floating plastics that are proving fatal to hatchlings," PhD student Julia Reisser said.
Ms. Reisser, who is also a CSIRO researcher, has been studying sea turtles for nine years and in 2010 she broadened her research to include marine plastics.
"My work is identifying the places contributing most to the increase in plastics in Australia's oceans and how this links to sea turtle life cycles," Ms. Reisser said.
"We're quantifying plastic pollution hazards and its distribution throughout Australia's oceans, and contribute to a national marine debris audit being undertaken by CSIRO's Wealth from Oceans National Research Flagship."
The research is been undertaken onboard the Marine National Facility vessel Southern Surveyor, which is owned and operated by CSIRO, and available to all Australian scientists. Securing research time on board is highly competitive and allocated to quality science projects that are internationally peer reviewed and in the national interest. Once major voyages are allocated, the transit time between these is offered to early career researchers and students under the Next Wave' program.
"It's an incredible experience as a PhD student to be the Chief Scientist onboard Southern Surveyor for a transit voyage, and to have access to a research vessel equipped with modern laboratory facilities and deep-water research technology," Ms. Reisser said.
The Southern Surveyor will be replaced in 2013 by Investigator, a new state-of-the-art 93.9-metre research vessel capable of spending up to 300 days a year at sea, and able to support scientific research across the oceanographic, climate, geological, fisheries and ecosystems disciplines.

PIANJ member agency finds new talent with Project Y
The Barclay Group hires new producer after college fair recruitment
RIVERTON, N.J.–The Barclay Insurance Group, Riverton, recently hired Matthew Rosenhoover, Haddon Heights, because of its involvement in Project Y, a joint insurance industry recruitment effort by the Professional Insurance Agents of New Jersey Inc. and the New Jersey Young Insurance Professionals. Rosenhoover, a recent college graduate, is an account executive, responsible for building and maintaining relationships with commercial-lines clients.
?Our agency, like so many others, faces the common and persistent challenge of finding new, young talent to join our staff,? said John Latimer, Esq., president of The Barclay Group and a past president of PIANJ. ?But thanks to our participation in Project Y, we were able to recruit Matt, who is thriving in his work and is one of our up-and-coming producers.?
Rosenhoover found a position with the agency when Project Y made an appearance at his university?s career fair last spring. ?The stereotypical vision of a career in insurance is on par with that of a used car salesman,? said Rosenhoover. ?I learned that this is not the case–it?s a business dedicated to helping people. It?s a rewarding industry, with plenty of opportunity for advancement.?
Project Y is a special joint initiative by PIANJ and the NJYIP, developed to recruit high school and college graduates throughout the state. A key goal of the effort is to create a new image of the insurance industry, projecting it as a field with endless growth potential and exciting opportunities. The plan includes representatives attending college and job fairs, and collecting resumes for a database accessible to PIANJ members looking for new employees. This makes it easier for interested students to explore the insurance industry by connecting them directly with agents.
As a next step in its efforts to help agents find new talent, PIA and YIP introduced a presentation tool kit, which member agencies can use on their own to find employees. This includes a customizable PowerPoint, brochures about the industry and a script for agents to use in classrooms and at community events.
?Students need to know that even in a tight economy, there?s always money available for high-quality hires, like Matt,? said Kim Voelker, director of PIA?s three-state Young Insurance Professionals associations. ?That?s why Project Y is essential–to spread the message to the next generation that insurance is a field that?s lucrative and with many opportunities.?
Rosenhoover earned a bachelor of arts in criminal justice at Richard Stockton College, Pomona, N.J. He interned at the prosecutor?s office in Camden, N.J., which helped to nurture his investigative disposition. ?This is a great career for anyone who is a detective at heart,? Rosenhoover said. ?There is something for everyone in this industry, whether you majored in marketing, accounting or management.?
To learn more about Project Y, visit the Web site at www.projectynj.org, or e-mail the NJYIP at email@example.com.
NJYIP is an organization dedicated to the professional and personal growth of newcomers to the insurance industry. It is affiliated with PIANJ, a trade association representing professional, independent insurance agencies and their employees throughout the state.
Established in 1945, The Barclay Insurance Group has been continuously serving the insurance needs of businesses, families, contractors, public entities and emergency squads in the community. Today, The Barclay Group has grown to nine offices in four counties to become one of the largest and most trusted professional independent insurance agents in New Jersey. Since 1999, customers have voted The Barclay Group Burlington County?s BEST Insurance Agency and Gloucester County?s BEST since 2006. For more information, please visit www.barclayinsurance.com.

Southern Ohio Medical Center has announced it will be partnering with Nationwide Children's Hospital to bring additional resources and care to pediatric and neonatal patients.
"We consider it our responsibility to make sure our community has access to the best care possible, and this new affiliation will help us do just that," Randy Arnett, president and CEO of SOMC, said. "By combining the resources and expertise of Nationwide Children's Hospital with that of our current pediatricians, we can bring our patients a higher level of pediatric care and service."
As part of the affiliation, SOMC will be able to directly consult with specialists at Nationwide Children's Hospital in Columbus, Ohio. SOMC's medical staff will also benefit from training and mentoring programs as well as state-of-the-art pediatric research and clinical trials.
"Together, SOMC and Nationwide Children's Hospital will build upon the tremendous care already provided by our current pediatricians," Arnett said. "They will be able to provide even greater care by taking advantage of Nationwide Children's telemedicine services and pediatric and neonatology expertise.
"Our hospitals will also be able to work together to place graduating residents from Nationwide Children's Hospital right here in southern Ohio, which will directly impact the quality of care available at SOMC."
"We are looking forward to our formal collaboration with Southern Ohio Medical Center," said Gil Peri, vice president of Regional Development at Nationwide Children's Hospital. "We will bring our pediatric expertise to the community working closely with local pediatricians to enhance care in the Portsmouth and surrounding communities. Together we can improve the health of the neonatal and pediatric community we serve."
Nationwide Children's Hospital
Ranked 7th of only 12 children's hospitals on U.S.News & World Report's 2012-13 "America's Best Children's Hospitals Honor Roll," Nationwide Children's Hospital is one of the nation's largest not-for-profit freestanding pediatric healthcare networks providing wellness, preventive, diagnostic, treatment and rehabilitative care for infants, children, and adolescents, as well as adult patients with congenital disease. In June 2012, the hospital celebrated completion of the largest pediatric expansion construction project in United States history, adding 2.1 million square feet of clinical, research and support facilities to total 5.3 million square feet on its main campus. A medical staff of 1,100 and 8,300 employees provide state-of-the-art pediatric care for nearly one million patient visits annually. As home to the Department of Pediatrics of The Ohio State University College of Medicine, Nationwide Children's Hospital physicians train the next generation of pediatricians and pediatric specialists. The Research Institute at Nationwide Children's Hospital is one of the top 10 National Institutes of Health-funded freestanding pediatric research facilities. Nationwide Children's remains true to the original mission since its founding in 1892 of providing care regardless of a family's ability to pay. More information is available at NationwideChildrens.org.

On October 1, 2013, there were 3,013 students enrolled in the twelve schools in the district. By comparison, the district had 3,064 students on October 1, 2013.
In the most recent year, the largest enrollment drops were at Blanding Elementary (44), Monument Valley High (8), and Whitehorse High (13).
There were enrollment gains at Bluff School (8), Tsebinidzgai Elementary (6), Monticello High (9), and Navajo Mountain High (5).
Bluff School has more than 100 students for the first time in more than a decade.
Despite the one-year drop, the 2013 enrollment is higher than any other year in the past ten years. Over the past several years, significant enrollment gains have taken place at schools in Montezuma Creek and Monument Valley.
Kim Bailey, principal at Albert R Lyman Middle School in Blanding, reported on progress at the school.
Bailey pointed out impressive gains in performance on year-end tests. For instance, 95 percent of the eight grade students were proficient on their language arts tests last year. As seventh grade students, 81 percent of the same group scored proficient while 78 percent were proficient as sixth grade students.
Bailey reports that the growth continues a multiyear trend and is the result of hard work by students and faculty.
Bailey also discussed the school's positive behavior support program, which has resulted in a dramatic decrease in tardies and suspensions.
Chaz DeWitt, the district supervisor of secondary schools, discussed issues related to the six secondary schools in the district.
DeWitt reports that one of the biggest challenges faced by the schools is the high turnover in faculty and administration.
DeWitt reports that 29 percent of the teachers and 73 percent of the administrators in secondary schools have been in their position for three years or less.
The board heard a report about a proposal to hold the 1A boys and girls basketball tournaments at the same time and in the same city.
Currently, two separate tournaments are held; the girls tournament in early February and the boys tournament one month later.
Superintendents from districts with 1A schools submitted the proposals, arguing that combined tournaments would cut down on time out of school.
The general concern has been that Richfield does not have the capacity to hold both tournaments at the same time. However, Richfield officials state that there are enough motels and restaurants to host the tournament.
Richfield High School would be used for the first few days of the double elimination tournaments. Richfield High School is adjacent to the Sevier Valley Center, which currently hosts the individual tournaments.
Superintendent Doug Wright said, "It is a proposal that is worth considering."
The proposal will be considered by the Utah High School Activities Association.

This town is a bit of a tongue twister but the once you wrap your mouth around the name, it's well worth a visit. For this is a pretty village, which skirts the fringes of the Gold Coast and sits patiently at the foot of the Gold Coast Hinterland.
Old Gold Coasters believe Mudgeeraba remains relatively untouched by tourism and this is one of its many charms. Certainly, the original Mudgeeraba Hotel built in 1884 still remains, although these days its name has changed to the Wallaby Hotel. Many credit the opening of this watering hole, both for horses and passengers, for the impetus around which the village was built and today, the old world charm remains.
The Mudgeeraba Farmers Markets are believed to be the oldest on the Gold Coast and home to local produce, coffee, jams, cheese, wine and baked goods from around the area. There's also quaint restaurants, bed and breakfasts, cafes and art and craft galleries in this lovely area which eventually winds its way up towards Springbrook National Park. The only tongue twister remaining will be where to eat.

The White Sox signed 32-year-old righty reliever Orber Moreno to a minor league deal, reports Billy Russo of El Universal. Said Moreno: "Oswaldo Guillen told me that he believes in me and that he will give me the opportunity." Thanks to Nick Collias for translating.
From the Google translation it seems like Moreno will be given a chance to make to the Sox during Spring Training.
Stats: FG.
Rotoworld says "Moreno, 32, once looked like a nice find for the Mets, but hasn't been able to make it back to the major leagues after undergoing shoulder surgery in 2004. He spent last season in Mexico, finishing 2-1 with a 3.41 ERA and 1.24 WHIP over 37 innings for Mexico City and Quintana Roo."

Let's Get Drunk Watching: Arrested Development
Television's much more fun if you make every show into a drinking game.
I know this isn't an advice column, but allow me to start off with two pieces of what I consider to be sound advice. First, if you are tasked with writing jokes for a tongue-in-cheek drinking column about a television comedy, you probably shouldn't spend your time immediately before writing that watching a movie about cancer alone in a dark hotel room. Second, if you're not familiar with Arrested Development, then you should definitely strap on some Daisy Dukes and get familiar.
The Necessary Details
Arrested Development first aired back in 2003 and was cancelled in 2006, and everyone's still angry about that. But Netflix will be releasing 15 brand spankin' new episodes all at once for streaming this weekend—you didn't have any plans for Sunday and Monday, did you?
Arrested follows the Bluth family, focusing on Michael Bluth (played by Jason Bateman), the straight man and moral compass who does his best to keep the dysfunctional Bluth bunch together. Michael is forced to take over the Bluth Company after his father, George Bluth Sr (Jeffrey Tambor), is arrested for defrauding investors. Michael's alcoholic mother Lucille (Jessica Walter) becomes CEO upon George's incarceration and attempts to install Michael's youngest brother, the dim-witted and timid Buster (Tony Hale), as company president with disastrous results.
Rounding out the cast a bit, we've got:
G.O.B.: (pronounced like the Biblical "Job," and played brilliantly by Will Arnett) an unskilled magician and Michael's older brother.
Lindsay: (Portia de Rossi of Ally McBeal and married-to-Ellen fame) Michael's vainglorious and vapid twin sister.
Tobias: (David Cross) Lindsay's husband, who can never feel comfortable in the nude.
George Michael: (Michael Cera. You know, that kid you don't think is cute anymore) Michael's son and budding frozen banana mogul.
Maeby: (Alia Shawkat) Tobias and Lindsay's daughter, and George Michael's cousin/love interest.
Supplies You'll Need
Since there's always money in the banana stand, I recommend a Frozen Monkey, with a little booze added. (Vodka's fine, bourbon's tastier.) Option two is for British eyes only. Just remember Lucille's advice on booze: once you open a bottle of vodka, you have to finish it or it'll go bad.
For food, you can opt for some hot ham water, colloquially known as ham soup, or if you have some leftover ribs, you toss those bones in a pot, add some broth, and baby, you got a stew goin'.
Just stay away from chicken.
The Arrested Development Drinking Game
As always, this game is presented for entertainment purposes only. So no drinking and driving your stair car, okay?
Take a Sip
1 Sip: This one is simple: if Lucille drinks, you drink.
2 Sips: For Steve Holt!
2 Sips: For every time G.O.B. attempts an
magic trick illusion.
2 Sips: For each time Tobias has a new look. 3 sips if it's something that says, "Dad likes leather."
3 Sips: For every appearance of the Bluth Family Banana Stand.
4 Sips: For any instance of embellishment, extortion, fraud, perjury or insider trading perpetrated by a Bluth.
Take a Swig
1 Swig:: For every appearance of a seal.
2 Swigs: For "No touching!" No touching? NO TOUCHING!"
3 Swigs: For every there's an appearance of any attorney you wouldn't trust to chase an ambulance.
3 Swigs: For any time Lucille asks for help zipping up her dress.
3 Swigs: for any time a Bluth does something dishonest that isn't covered by rule #6 (thought you were getting off easy? Don't test me!)
Slam It
Slam Your Drink: If G.O.B. successfully executes a magic trick.
Slam Your Drink: If narrator Ron Howard breaks the fourth wall.
Drink for the Duration of:
Any "chicken dance" scene.
Stop Drinking If:
You start feeling that being a Bluth doesn't seem so bad...

More and more gardeners and landscapers are heading "back to the land." In addition to self-sufficiency, less pesticide use, growing heirloom vegetable varieties, urban homesteading, hardscaping using natural materials is also becoming more popular. This provides a wealth of natural materials for landscaping and design work.
In the mountainous areas, limestone, granite, and slates have been mined for decades, and used as building materials for prominent sites such as the "Hokie stone" used to build Norris Hall at Virginia Tech, or the buildings in aptly named Rockmart, Georgia, contracted using locally quarried Rockmart slate. Fieldstone is a generic term indicating stone that has been removed fields that have been tilled for agricultural use. Fieldstone is also abundant throughout most of the mountainous areas and is a great material for dry walls, steps, and fire pits. River rock of varying sizes, colors, and shapes found in the rivers of the mountains and Piedmont regions are often used to create dry creek beds in areas where runoff may be an issue It can be used as mulch material around shrubs and trees, allowing rainwater to percolate down into the soil. Since it will not wash away as easily as other organic mulches, replacement cost is low, unlike traditional mulch.
Clockwise: Use small stones to highlight unique plant specimens. • Keep the style of your home in mind when planning hardscape features. Borders of natural stone work well with the home's foundation. • This fieldstone wall serves not only as a border, but also adds an artistic touch. The craftsman spent weeks choosing just the right stones for the perfect results.
In coastal areas, landscape materials such as oyster shells, driftwood, bluestone, and slate are available. Oyster shells make great mulch, and are a beautiful addition to driveways and paths. Be aware that when using oyster shells around plants, they may leach materials into the ground such as salt and lime, causing the soil to change slightly in salinity and pH values over years. Driftwood is abundant along the coast and is an interesting material to use for fences, arbors, furniture, and planters. Bluestone is mined extensively for use as gravel, and can be used to create pervious driveways, walkways, and patios. Slate is another great material for patios and steps.
The wide variety of available materials allows for diverse hardscape styles – from a "beachy" feel to more formal designs.
Keep in mind the style of your home. Unless you are planning an area where the house won't be a factor, a formal walled garden might not be right for a beach house or a modern sculpture garden in front of a Victorian house. Nature provides so many textures, colors, and shapes, so use materials that will complement your house and landscape.
Top: This rock wall blends in seamlessly with the rest of the landscape.
Far Left: The trailing plants soften the hard lines of the stones.
Left: Slate is a great material for pathways. It is stable and allows water to percolate into the soil.
When purchasing materials, more is usually better, as natural materials are hard to "match" from lot to lot or place to place. If you finish a product and still have an abundance of material, it should be relatively easy to work into your landscape later, perhaps as steps or other type of accent.
And don't forget about the plants. Choose plants that work with the style you are trying to create. Plants can soften natural materials such as rock and stone and blend the new elements into the existing landscape.
There are a few things to keep in mind when working with natural materials:
• Will the materials need to be eventually replaced due to weathering or decay? If so, how can that be effectively accomplished?
• Know what will be necessary to maintain the area around your new hardscape. Will you be able to do it yourself or will you need to hire a maintenance service?
• Always keep sustainability and the environment in mind. Does your plan allow for water permeability? If not, is there a plan to accommodate water runoff?

I have discovered this black hole after the Curator in Kara, and I am wondering whether to report it to Blizzard.
- Raid one-shots Curator.
- Divides loots
- Moves on to next trash.
- Mmmm player X (and maybe Y) have disconnected.
- Let's give them 5 minutes
- OK 5 minutes have passed, lets clear some more trash and give them another 5 minutes.
- OK, let's start LFM, but keep them in the raid until we do – because they might sort out their technical difficulties.
- Mmm looks like the black hole has struck again!
I mentioned a similar thing in last weeks post, on that occasion with a Shaman. This week we lost 2 high performing Locks.
Now the thing is I could understand someones frustration if we had taken 3-4 hours to get to Curator, but the reality is we are finishing Curator within 1.5-2 hours.
So what is it?
- Are they upset at Blizzards RNG not offering them what they wanted?
- Did Mum call the off to bed?
- Have we wiped too often?
- Have they really got technical difficulties?
- Were they annoyed that their greater than average dps/damage meter was still being beaten but that annoying little Gnome mage?
I know of one occasion where a player (that time the tank, which really screwed us), got pissed cause he didn't win the roll on the Curator drop (he had won something off every other boss up until then, and had even needed on a BoE item which he obviously was just going to pawn at the AH). But he cracked it when he lost the roll.
But these other folks, give no indication… none.
So folks, if you are the sort that are going to fall into a black hole after a boss, do the world a favour.
- Be honest about your play time limitations.
- Be honest about the fact that you only want to kill up to x boss.
- If you are going to drop raid, then just say so… I don't care you if you come up with a pox excuse, just tell us, so we can spend the 20 minutes of grace that we will give your DC'ed toon in looking for a replacement. Let me assure you, you are replaceable. We have enough Alts or toons able to respec to continue on with whoever is in LFG at the time. We just need to know!
Actually it wasn't a bad run until then. I was topping the damage meters overall, but it was a real mix of classy dps. I don't think anyone topped the charts on a boss fight more than once and the meters were see-sawing all night. As much as I like being at the top of the meter, I much prefer really close DPS, because that indicates everyone is pulling their weight and we have a good chance at all the bosses.
Everything was good until the 2 disconnects. Worst part was I had to go at that point as well.. if they had stayed the raid would have only needed one more. Because of their actions, the raid needed 3 more.
Actually, I wish there was some sort of universal rating process, so you could score toons on how good/bad they are. Similar to reporting an /afk, or ebay score, but visible to everyone.. don't bother checking their armory page, check out what everyone that has played with them thinks.
Gnomer and Out!

$250 man: Slave auction stirs passions
Visitors to the 11th annual Jeffersonian Thanksgiving Festival, which took place last month at Court Square, came expecting to see Revolutionary reenactments. But this year, one display seems to have been a bit too revolutionary for some viewers: a white slave owner, dubbed "Cornelius A. Banker," attempting to sell his black slave "Bilal" for $250.
The local NAACP lodged a complaint with the City, but perhaps no one has expressed as much dismay as Mark Beliles, Festival director and pastor at the nondenominational, multicultural Grace Covenant Church on Market Street.
Beliles worries that many people thought the Festival had sanctioned the "auction." The Hook was among those fooled– the above image ran in last week's "Photophile" along with several other Festival pictures.
"Black leaders ask us not to portray the slave trade. We prefer to address it and talk about it," says Beliles, noting the Festival's inclusion of several African American reenactors who play freed slaves and historic figures such as York, William Clark's slave on the Lewis and Clark expedition west.
But as for performing a reenactment of a slave sale, says Beliles, "We do not and never will."
Rick Turner, Dean of African American Studies at UVA, was also disturbed to hear of the incident– though he reserves his wrath for the African American man who allowed himself to be what Turner called "the butt of a serious form of exploitation."
"There are fools in all races," Turner says.
The object of all this attention is none other than Scottie Williams, known around town as "Scottie B.," a soft-spoken sometime restaurateur, DJ, drummer, and now performance artist.
"I'm not trying to start a controversy," says Scottie, who stopped by the Hook's offices to set the record straight.
His ancestors, he says, were slaves who were sold at auctions. He doesn't want them– or their experiences– to be forgotten, as he believes Beliles and Turner would like them to be.
"I'm just here to represent what they're trying to forget," says Scottie. "It's a shame that in generations to come, people won't know that part of history."
As for why his staged auction touched so many nerves, Scottie has an explanation: "I think a lot of people are afraid that people will get angry," he says. "It makes me angry when people don't want to portray the true history."
The "slaveholder" reenactor, played by Anson Parker, springs to Scottie's defense on a local news blog called cvilleindymedia.org.
In his article, Parker insists that most observers at the Festival were "gladly taken" with the auction– with the exception of one: Mark Beliles.
In Beliles, writes Parker, "We could not have found a more fitting antagonist." Parker claims Beliles called them racists and demanded that they "move their show elsewhere."
After nearly three hours of confrontation, including a call by Beliles to the police, the pastor confronted his tormentors once more, this time, Parker writes, in costume.
"Fittingly dressed in the black robes worn historically by French Jesuit Monks who gave smallpox to the Native Americans," writes Parker, "Mark Beliles chanted his dark prayers beside the auction block."
Parker sees a certain irony in Beliles' behavior– and in the reenactments deemed officially appropriate for the Thanksgiving Festival.
"Mark's tailored version of history depicted the happy Negro standing shoulder to shoulder with his master fighting for freedom and justice," writes Parker. "The irony of his disapproval of the expression of free speech and freedom to peaceably assemble did not go unnoticed."
Beliles counters that the auction "constituted not just a free-speech act of their own, but also a fraudulent misrepresentation of our speech." Further, Beliles says, his Thanksgiving festival responsibly deals with issues of race in history. The festival schedules high-profile African Americans to lecture on black history, even on the "ugly realities" of slavery and racism.
"We have done this for years, sometimes having dramatic skits just focused on this and on racist attitudes of that time," says Beliles. "At our Festival we have also urged people to pray and seek repentance and reconciliation even today."
Turner backs Beliles. He considers the reenactment as offensive as old minstrel show "blackface" performances, and he says he sees no educational value in such a stunt.
What about the historic plaque in Court Square noting the site of an 18th century slave auction?
Turner has no argument with that memorial.
"That's a part of history that should be recorded," he says. "But I don't think you need to reenact that horrible kind of situation with any sense that this is going to be education."
Anson Parker as "Cornelius A. Banker" and Scottie Williams as "Bilal" wonder what all the fuss is about.
18th-century period actors are deemed a more appropriate version of the county's early history than a slave auction by Thanksgiving Festival director Mark Beliles.

I recommend this book because it is a mystery and is fun to follow the clues. I think the illustrations are really great. I think you should read this book because it is a lot of fun to find fang. I think kids of all ages will enjoy this book. This reminds me of when I couldn't find my kitten named Mittens, but I finally found her. The pictures in the book are in color and they are painted. This is like a book I've read before called "Mary Kate and Ashley". It is also like other books by the same author.

New York, February 27, 2012--Ecuadoran President Rafael Correa announced today that he would pardon several news managers and journalists he had sued for libel, but his actions in the cases have done grave damage to free expression in his country, the Committee to Protect Journalists said today. Correa had won separate libel complaints against executives of the daily El Universo and authors of the book The Big Brother concerning reporting critical of his administration."We are relieved that El Universo and its directors, along with the authors of The Big Brother, will not face penalties for having dared to criticize the president," said Carlos Lauría, CPJ's senior Americas program coordinator. "But these cases are part of an alarming pattern in which the president and other Ecuadoran officials have subjected critical journalists to long and debilitating legal reprisals. Citizens' fundamental right to freedom of expression should not be left up to the whims of a public official."
Correa announced his pardon in a televised address, saying, "There is forgiveness, but it is not forgotten." His statement was shown on large television screens outside the national palace in Quito and was accompanied by live folk bands, news reports said.
"Correa's statement--that he is forgiving but not forgetting--is a thinly veiled warning to all journalists who might report critically on his administration," Lauría said. "Ecuadoran authorities should ensure the free and robust debate that is a hallmark of democracy by eliminating recent restrictive laws, tolerating dissent, and refraining from retaliation."
On February 16, Ecuador's highest court upheld a criminal libel conviction against El Universo that sentenced its three directors and opinion editor to three years each in prison and a total of US$40 million in damages. The complaint stemmed from a February 2011 El Universo opinion column that insinuated the president could be charged with crimes against humanity for his actions during a police uprising in 2010. The libel case was marked by allegations of irregularities, the most significant of which was a defense charge that Correa's lawyer wrote the trial court's decision. The case became emblematic of deteriorating press freedom conditions in Ecuador and culminated in an epic 15-hour hearing earlier this month.
El Universo's lawyers said they were waiting for the appropriate papers to be filed for the pardon to go into effect, the newspaper reported.
Correa filed a separate civil libel complaint against investigative journalists Juan Carlos Calderón and Christian Zurita for allegations they made about the president's brother in their book The Big Brother. On February 6, a judge ruled that the journalists had to pay Correa US$1 million each in damages, in addition to legal fees. Both the journalists and Correa, who had sought $10 million, appealed the case. In his address, Correa said he would withdraw the complaint.
CPJ research shows that Correa's administration has led Ecuador into an era of widespread repression by systematically filing defamation lawsuits and smearing critics. In December, the director of the Quito-based daily Hoy was sentenced to prison on charges of criminal libel for articles depicting the political influence of an Ecuadoran banking official who was a relative of President Correa. After the sentence was issued, the official announced he would pardon the newspaper director and withdraw the complaint.

Merry Christmas To All!
After one of the most eventful Decembers I've seen in all of the years I have followed open-wheel racing, Christmas Eve is upon us and it's safe to say we will probably go at least a few days without any announcements regarding drivers or sponsors.
I will be taking a few days off from this site. My family and I are spending Christmas with my mother in the home that I grew up in. Both of my older brothers and their families are here as well. This is the first time we have all been together at the same time since 2006.
Along with going to the Music City Bowl to watch my Tennessee Volunteers, I plan to relax, eat and rest up over the next few days in order to be ready for what promises to be a very busy couple of months leading up to the 2011 IZOD IndyCar Series season. I will return here on Monday January 3.
I wish everyone safe travels, a very Merry Christmas and a prosperous and Happy New Year!
George Phillips

Happy Holidays George, I thoroughly enjoy your view points. Go Colts !!
Merry Christmas, George!!
Merry Christmas to you, the Phillips and all the pressurized folks around!
Merry Christmas to you and your family George. The coming year is full of promise and excitement for open-wheel fans.
Merry Christmas to you and yours as well, George. Thanks for all your great work in 2010, and here's to an even better 2011!
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family. This will be an off-season to remember. Thanks for being an ambassador for IndyCar.
Merry Christmas George. Kind of weird not having my Cats in the Music City Bowl this year. I hope you enjoyed this last game because the 300 year win streak will end next year…Rocky top will go down!
Enjoy a blessed new year, George & Susan.

Search the Spokane Daily Chronicle Online-Free!
from Library Genealogy Blog by genealogy librarian
A friend recently brought to my attention that Google has digitized and made searchable the Spokane Daily Chronicle and its predecessor, the Spokane Falls Daily Chronicle as well as the more recent Spokesman Review from approximately 1890-date. The method of finding the search is difficult, which is probably why it has remained unknown for so long. Although you can find articles and view them on Google, in order to get a physical copy you would need to come to the library or contact us with a citation, which is available at the top of the page. The way to get to the search is as follows: First, go to Google and click on News. Then click advanced news search (to the right of Search the Web). On that page, click archive search, then click advanced archive search. One last thing, make sure you enter "Spokane" in the source box to get only local searches. If you are from out of town and need a lookup contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com. Happy searching!

Confused? That's okay, so am I. Sampson Videos was taken down some time back to motivate myself to do better - unfortunately, that blew up in my face. I'm currently working on bringing the project back to life. For now, enjoy the 1200 Grid System. If you really need to get to the videos, they're still available on sampsonvideos.blip.tv.
The 1200 GridSystem is a CSS rapid-prototyping tool to assist in quickly laying out complex div-based layouts. This grid system functions like, and shares syntax and conventions with, the popular 960 Grid System created by Nathan Smith.
1200 GridSystem provides for its user a 1200 pixel wide layout as opposed to a 960 pixel wide layout provided by the 960 Grid System. Also unlike the 960 Grid System, the 1200 Grid System only offers 1 type of container, consisting of up to 20 columns.
You may download the 1200 GridSystem file(s) below. Included in your download will be the standard reset files that typically ship with the 960 Grid System.
1200GridSystem.zip | 2.08kb
To prepare your page, be sure to include all stylesheet references, and add your container_20 element.
<!DOCTYPE html>   <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <title>Template</title> <link href="reset.css" rel="stylesheet" /> <link href="text.css" rel="stylesheet" /> <link href="1200.css" rel="stylesheet" />

Anybody who has used the 960 Grid System will find no problems learning to use the 1200 Grid System. In fact, there isn't much learning to it if you're familiar with the 960 Grid System. Below are a series of simple examples that you can study, or copy and paste into your projects to begin your layouts. Above each example will be provided a short description of the example.
Here we have our container, and two equal-width columns. These columns will be set side-by-side, since they do not exceed the container width of 20 columns.

Left Column

Right Column

Many layouts will require three vertical columns. In the example below we demonstrate how to setup a standard layout that consists of a left column, middle content area, and a right colum.

Left Column

Center Column

Right Column

Often times you may find the need to use grids as though they were mini-containers. Nesting grids doesn't require much effort, just be sure the nested grids don't exceed the width of their parent. In our example below, we have two 5's within one 10. Also, when nesting, be sure the first nested element has a class of "alpha" and the last a class of "omega". This removes conflicting margins and allows the nested elements to align themselves properly with the parent element.

Left nested column A

Left nested column A

Right Column

Adding a prefix causes the element to appear as though it had columns in front of it. Adding a suffix causes the element to appear as though there were columns after it. These create additional horizontal spaces between lateral grids.

I appear to have four columns of emptiness before and after me.

With prefix's and suffix's, I occupy 12 horizontal slots.

I have four columns of emptiness to my right.

By adding push-classes and pull-classes to your grid, you can rearrange lateral grids to appear on either side of eachother. This allows you to have something appear earlier in the HTML, yet render lower in the browser.

I appear second, though I'm really first.

I appear first, though I'm really second.

Below is an example using all of the 1200 GridSystem featuers. Again, there's nothing here that didn't already exist in the 960 Grid System by Nathan Smith.

I appear in the middle.

I appear to the far right.

I am a large column which appears to the far left.

I'm the first nested element. I have one invisible column to my right.

I'm the second nested element. I have one invisible column to my left.

K-7 Reviews Update
A lot of the "reviewers" have reviewed the K-7 already, I think 1001 Noisy Cameras have kept track of all those online reviews very well and have been updating their review links and summary very quickly (up to the minute, I would say). Here is their summary:-
The latest K-7 review is published by the DC Resource, here is the Conclusion page:-
Do read the Cons, they talk about underexposure and soft images directly out of the camera. Well, aren't these two problems exactly what I found when I tested the K-7 back to the July and reported?
There is another new European review that have many of those full-sized K-7 sample photos posted. Various "luxury" Pentax contemporary digital lenses were used to produce the shots. But actually I am not impressed with the Image Quality of those samples once again, or I would say those are just terrible. Narrow Dynamic Range, exposure errors (with manual compensations already - may argue as user errors, though), soft images, obvious corner blurs (possibly owing to low optical performance), high noise at just ISO 800 and super grainy pictures (see the model portraits). Well, I have already stopped to inspect further! It's just too disappointing afterall!
As for other non-internet K-7 tests or just other not-so-typical K-7 tests and shootouts (against other APS-C upper class DSLR models), you may wish to dig into my this Blog for more!
E.g. http://ricehigh.blogspot.com/search?q=k-7+test
Last but not least, I notice that Dpreview (DPR)'s K-7 test is yet once again delayed (for long already, actually almost everyone else has done that now). Is it possible that there might be some technical issues and/or quality issues that cause the delay, just like what we were told for the previous DPR review tests of many of the Pentax DSLR bodies and lenses before? Don't ask me about more details, go read the stories told by DPR (in their lens and body reviews) yourself if you want to know but haven't yet known about those! :-)

A number of businesses and schools have been left stranded today after a major outage at IBM's $80 million data centre in South Auckland.
A hardware fault is understood to have hit the Highbrook Park data centre about 3am and services were still down as of 4pm.
IBM issued a brief statement from Sydney this afternoon saying it was working to resolve an outage to New Zealand Virtual Server Services.
It would not confirm what had caused the outage or when it expected the problem to be fixed.
Many cloud-reliant businesses and education providers have been unable to work at all today because of the fault.
Arrow International, an Auckland-based project delivery company, said its systems had been down all day.
A spokesman said the situation was "pretty messy".
"We've got no computer access at all. It's been terrible."
Steve Voisey, who works in the IT department at Elim Christian College, posted a tweet about the outage at 2:30pm today.
"We're experiencing a major outage at the IBM datacentre at Highbrook. Is anyone else?"
Voisey told nzherald.co.nz that Elim had two campuses in Howick and one of these was completely reliant on the IBM data centre through a service called Nimbus, provided by an IT company called Telco Technology Services (TTS).
Nimbus was designed specifically for New Zealand schools to store their data in the cloud.
"Nimbus increases the safety of your valuable data thanks to it being housed in IBM's $50m state-of-the-art secure data centre in Auckland," TTS said in a brochure.
Freight management firm Kotahi said all online business was stalled today because of the outage.
"We're sort of in a holding pattern right now," a spokesman said.
"IBM's giving us certainty that they're getting their services back up and running."
IBM opened its $80 million, 5200 square metre data centre in May 2011.
The centre allows for companies to securely store and access digital information, removing the need for them to own and maintain computer servers.
On its website, IBM describes the data centre as "a local New Zealand cloud" which was "designed with Kiwi businesses in mind".
"This enterprise-class cloud services delivers a secure and scalable-hosted IT infrastructure with on-demand access to virtual server and storage resources enabling you to create your own virtual data centre."
The building contains a 1500 square metre raised floor, able to hold up to 720 server racks and is kept at an even temperature by 1.4 kilometres of air conditioning pipes.
The server room hooked up to four electricity generators, capable of producing enough juice to power 266 homes.
