A unique game with cute graphics! I made this as a short project to see if I can make "girl-ier" games for a change.
Use the arrow keys and spacebar to play. Mouse control works fine as well. Find a guy that looks like your dream guy, and collect as much Happiness as you can before you turn 50!
Rated 4 / 5 stars November 13, 2012
This game's pretty nice actually. The idea is very cool and the concept is interesting, but it has so much more potential for a much bigger game. That's why I only give 4 of 5 stars. And because all the bars and writings on the lower half of the screen often block the view on items, which appear in front of you (especially annoying when it's skulls).
Rated 5 / 5 stars February 8, 2012
I found this game! I played this around a year ago, and couldn't find it. Now with the new Newgrounds, it was easier to find it (all I remembered was the word "dream"
I still love it :)

When it comes to saving a baby's life, price is no object. Ovation Pharmaceuticals banked on that --literally.
The Federal Trade Commission has sued the drug maker for alleged price-gouging after Ovation cornered the market on two life-saving drugs for premature babies -- and then inflated the price by 1,300 percent.
In what the FTC calls "monopoly prices" and "unlawfully obtained profits," the drug called Indocin was jacked up in price from $36 to $500 per vial. How do you spell G-R-E-E-D?
The drug is for preemies with life-threatening heart defects. It repairs a heart blood vessel defect that occurs in some preterm-infants that can lead to congestive heart failure. For decades Indocin had been the treatment of choice for some 30,000 preemies born annually with this potentially fatal heart problem. Ovation's drugs are the only alternative to risky surgery for "patent ductus arteriosus" in which a blood vessel connecting two heart arteries fails to close," reports efluxmedia.com .
"Just when I thought I could not take any more outrageous greed!" said Dr.Toni Brayer in her blog Everything Health, voicing what so many feel today. "This type of price gouging and greed needs to be halted in its tracks. I can't imagine what defense Ovation will propose. It looks pretty clear that they purchased their only competitor and blackmailed the medical community into paying the price."
The FTC suit was filed last month in U.S. District Court in Minnesota, following complaints raised by Children's Hospitals and Clinics of Minnesota and U.S. Senator Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn.
In an unusual move, the FTC is asking the court to force Ovation Pharmaceuticals to forfeit its "unlawfully obtained profits."
"Ovation's profiteering on the backs of critically ill premature babies is not only immoral, it is illegal," said Jon Leibowitz, FTC commissioner, reported by the Minneapolis-St. Paul Star Tribune.
As related in the FTC complaint, Ovation acquired the drug Indocin from Merck in 2005. At that time, a competing drug called NeoProfen was ready to enter the market. Ovation bought the rights to that drug (the only other drug used to treat this condition) in January 2006 and immediately increased the price of Indocin by 1,300 percent. When the drug maker launched NeoProfen in July 2006, it charged a similar price.
Ovation has recently purchased three other children's drugs and raised their prices by 864 percent to 3,437 percent, University of Minnesota Prof. Stephen Schondelmeyer told the Star Tribune.
"To achieve its dominant position, Ovation monopolized the market and bought its most imminent threat," said FTC Commissioner Jon Leibowitz.
Ovation is a pharma to keep a close eye on.
Here's what it's up to now: Ovation is getting ready to launch Xenazine (tetrabenazine) a treatment for chorea associated with Huntington's Disease (HD). Xenazine is the first and only FDA-approved treatment specifically developed for any HD-related symptom.
Additionally, an FDA advisory committee recently voted unanimously to recommend Ovation's Sabril (vigabatrin) for the treatment of two severe forms of epilepsy. If approved, Sabril will be the first FDA-approved monotherapy for infantile spasms.
Let's see how much Ovation will charge for these drugs for which it has "first and only FDA-approvals."
It amazes me how pharmaceutical companies (along with doctors and research universities to which the pharma companies provide huge pay-offs) continue to be greedy, unethical and immoral even at a time when they are being carefully scrutinized due to their past behaviors. It has to be arrogance, not even thinly-veiled.
What do you call greed combined with arrogance? What about "greedance?" It rhymes with grievance.
Can preemies hold a grudge?

The Portsmouth White Ribbon Group contacted
all Domestic Abuse Lead Officer's and seven London Boroughs late
last year to invite interested parties to take part in the first
ever White Ribbon UK Relay 2012. The idea is to pass a White
Ribbon Baton from city to city during Euro 2012 and in the lead up
to the Olympic Games.
White Ribbon is a global campaign to ensure
that men take more responsibility for reducing the level of
violence against women. The National White Ribbon Relay is sending
the baton around Britain and holding events to increase
understanding of the impact sporting events have on the occurrence
and nature of violence. The relay has been organised in partnership
with frontline service providers across the country and partnership
response advocates, Standing Together against Domestic Violence and
White Ribbon UK.
Michelle Davidson-Beck, Domestic Abuse and Sexual Violence Lead
Officer from the Conwy and Denbighshire Community Safety
Partnership (CSP) has successfully secured the passage of the baton
into North Wales. This will be the "Ribbon's" only excursion
into Wales and it will start from our Country's newest city, St
Asaph and travel through into Cheshire on Wednesday July 4th
The Welsh Leg of the "White Ribbon UK Relay" will start from North
Wales Police Divisional HQ on St Asaph Business Park at 12.45pm and
will be carried in relay by a team of 15 runners who are serving or
retired NWP Officers and Staff or members of the Community safety
Partnership. The North Wales Women's Centre Choir, Rhyl will
serenade the runners as they leave St Asaph to run in relays the
26.1 miles to Deeside Police Station where they will hand the
"White Ribbon" onto a North Wales Police motorcyclist who will
carry the baton on the final leg into Cheshire.
Detective Superintendent John Hanson North Wales Police lead in
Strategic Public Protection, and one of the runners taking part
said "This is a very worthwhile cause and one which North Wales
Police as part of the CSP fully support. Raising awareness is
a key factor in helping reduce and eradicate all forms of violence
against women. It is totally unacceptable that in the UK two
women a week are killed at the hands of a partner or ex partner,
45% of women have experienced some form of domestic violence,
sexual assault or stalking and at least 80,000 women are victims of
rape every year."
Michelle Davidson-Beck who organised the local leg added her full
support saying "1 in 4 women and 1 in 6 men suffer from domestic
abuse every year and around 85% of forced marriage victims are
women. All agencies have a responsibility to provide a
coordinated response through effective partnership working to
tackle the crimes of domestic abuse and sexual violence. This
event is a fine example of partnership working in raising awareness
of this heinous crime"
The National Campaign Manager for White Ribbon UK added " We think
the Relay is an excellent way of bringing people together to stand
up against violence against women and girls. We expect it, and the
many different local events associated with it, will help raise
awareness of this widespread issue that blights many people's lives
and is still largely a taboo subject. Any initiative like this is
really welcome. Well done to our Portsmouth supporters for
organising it!"

Police commanders in Atlanta have agreed to meet officers halfway in order to resolve a dispute over firearms training.
FOX 5 has previously reported on complaints that new weapons tests are seen as being unfair. Nearly 10 percent of the force has failed the more demanding test, which has more shooting scenarios and less time given to find and hit a target.
Veteran officers have complained to FOX 5 that the department expects them to pass the test without being able to see the course first.
Major Jeff Glazier of the Atlanta Police Department said that he's heard those complaints and is making a change.
"What we're trying to do is we're trying to solve this problem on the front end. We don't want people to fail," said Major Jeff Glazier of the Atlanta Police Department.
Glazier said that officers will now be allowed to see the course.
"I think if they fail after that, it will tell us that they simply don't have those basic fundamentals that they need," Glazier said.
Glazier defended the need for increased standards.
"Well, if you think about it, we're talking about deadly force. I mean, this is the highest level of force that a police officer can use. He can take someone's life," Glazier said.
When an officer fails the firearms test, it has an impact on police coverage in neighborhoods. That's because the officer has to sit for 45 days before he or she can take the exam again.

SPOKANE, Wash.--Spokane County Jail officers moved a local murder suspect to a cell by himself recently for his own safety. Guards said Issiah Schuman, 19, was beat up by fellow inmates.
Schuman is accused of shooting and killing Fabian McBride in June 2013 in Spokane County. The deadly drive-by happened in the middle of the afternoon near Atlantic and Wedgewood
Authorities have suspected both Issiah Shauman and Fabian McBride had gang ties to the same gang. McBride's family said the two men were close.
Shauman had been living with McBride in the days leading up to the shooting according to friends. Court documents said the motive came down to a break in where the two men were living. The victim's family said Shauman had an anger problem and could easily snap.
Shauman was only in the Spokane County Jail for a few weeks when he was beat up. His injuries were not serious. However, guards said he was moved to a different wing into a cell by himself to avoid future problems.
Officials could not elaborate further to protect Shauman's privacy.
All inmates are immediately classified when they are booked to prevent beatings like this according to guards. Inmates with the same classification are put together. Officials said it is up to inmates to be honest about any conflicts they have on the outside to be classified properly.
Jail staff said fights like the one involving Shauman are rare. He will likely be in a different wing of the jail for the duration of his time at the Spokane County Jail according to workers.

When Auburn's fans rushed the field to celebrate an improbable win over Alabama, someone took advantage of the opportunity to create a lasting memory.
We mean "forever memories. Permanent memories.
According to Auburn's Turf Grass management team, someone apparently poured ashes on the field of Jordan-Hare Stadium at the conclusion of one of the greatest college football games ever.

Here's where it gets even stranger:
According to several websites, including The War Eagle Reader, this isn't the first time it's happened. And that's why the grounds crew recognized the ashes of human remains.

How does returning a failed field goal attempt for a touchdown on the last play of the game acquire the description of "One of the best college games ever. Bammy doesn't have it's best team ever and as I watched the game it became boring at times.
Another case of the mighty Bammians fat All-Americans and veterans of 2 straight NCs not paying attention. One would have expected better reactions from a Middle School team.
One of the best college games ever???? It wasn't even the best college game of that day!!!!!

Spread the ashes. Don't throw it into one big clump.
Looks like leftover charcoal spot from a tailgate.

Quick Take: Yahoo!'s Fantasy Sports App Scores
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Yahoo! (YHOO) has made a big overhaul of its fantasy football mobile app and TheStreet's Chris Ciaccia and Brittany Umar detail its importance.
The new upgrade will allow users to not only view their teams' progress throughout game day, but actually do the team draft via their mobile device. Ciaccia said this is a feature that fans have been wanting for quite a while.
This is important, especially since Yahoo! had its mobile app go down last year, leaving a bad taste in the mouth of many fantasy footballer fans. He added that this new version should not only retain last year's users, but bring in new ones as well.
Additionally, football fans aren't the only winners here, with Yahoo!'s fantasy outreach stretching to hockey, basketball and baseball.Despite the added outreach, Ciaccia said the move will not likely equate to higher mobile ad revenue as yet. Instead, it will fuel mobile page views, he said. As Facebook (FB) and Yelp (YELP) have recently shown, the more eyes, the more money. Meaning that if Yahoo! can drive page views, the ad dollars will follow. Ciaccia concluded that Yahoo! completed the "Hail Mary" and will likely continue to remain a big player in the fantasy football world. -- Written by Bret Kenwell in Petoskey, Mich.

It is so exciting to see so much positive press about working dogs. I know many people looking for a 'career' for their four legged partners and what could be more perfect than a wine and truffles after a walk in the woods with your best friend?!

Looking for phones? CNET's reviews of the best phones include photos, video, and user reviews.
The HTC Desire 820 is a 5.5-inch Android phone with a 64-bit processor, an 8-megapixel camera and a fun, colourful design.
Pricing not available
The Desire 510 is HTC's cheapest 4G phone yet, with Category 4 LTE speed and a cool DotView case.
Pricing not available
The Desire 616 isn't one of the better HTC products we've seen this year, and you may want to give this a miss. There are cheaper and better alternatives such as the Asus ZenFone 5 or the Redmi Note.
Pricing not available
The HTC Desire 610 may be affordable, with an iPhone 5C-style plastic body, but its mediocre specs and poor screen resolution mean it's still not a good buy. For much less money you can grab the 4G Motorola Moto G, which has the same processor, Android KitKat software and a higher resolution display.
Pricing not available
The HTC Desire 816's combination of solid design and quality performance strikes all the right chords to make it a compelling phone for its price.
Sure, it doesn't have the latest Android software on board, but if you're after a good-looking HTC phone with powerful speakers and 4G LTE for speedy data downloads, the Desire 601 is an affordable option to consider.
Pricing not available
Take a look at our hands-on with the HTC Desire 820, a 5.5-inch, 64-bit Android phone with a whopping 8-megapixel camera.
The company's newest mobile promises speedy performance on a budget. Read on for everything you need to know.
Pricing not available
This good-looking phone from HTC derives its good looks from the Desire 816, but it ultimately underwhelms with its sluggish performance.
The HTC Desire 610 has a chunky plastic body, dual, front-facing speakers, 4G LTE and Android KitKat and doesn't cost the Earth either. Hit play to watch our video review.

We offer two ways to locate information:
The wine is a seamless fusion of two varieties, Shiraz and Cabernet Sauvignon. An intriguing nose of chocolate, crushed herbs, cedar, blackberries and smoke leads into a tightly focused palate with fine-grained tannin and incredible density. The finish is fresh and lively, with flavors that linger.
The 2005 is very similar to the 2004 although as with Amon-Ra, the 2005 Godolphin is a little larger and will take a little longer to fully integrate. The Cabernet component in the 2005 showed higher blackcurrant and cassis notes than the 2004 making the wine appear slightly more aromatic. Potential cellaring of 12-14 years.
"The 2005 Godolphin, a blend of 80% Shiraz (from 85-year-old vines) and 20% Cabernet Sauvignon (from 60-year-old vines), was aged in 100% new oak, primarily 300-liter French hogsheads. It represents a beautiful marriage of power and elegance, displaying an inky/blue/purple color as well as notions of black raspberries, blueberries, graphite, and sweet pain grille. Ripe, pure, and medium to full-bodied with sweet but noticeable tannin, it can be drunk now or cellared for 12-15 years."

Idle (CPU)
A computer processor is described as idle when it is not being used by any program.
On processors that have a halt instruction that stops the CPU until an interrupt occurs, such as x86's HLT instruction, it may save significant amounts of power and heat if the idle task consists of a loop which repeatedly executes HLT instructions.
Most operating systems[which?] will display an idle task, which is a special task loaded by the OS scheduler only when there is nothing for the computer to do. The idle task can be hard-coded into the scheduler, or it can be implemented as a separate task with the lowest possible priority. An advantage of the latter approach is that programs monitoring the system status can see the idle task along with all other tasks;[citation needed] an example is Windows NT's System Idle Process.
Some programs are designed to make use of CPU Idle Time, meaning that they run at a low priority so as not to impact programs that run at normal priority. This allows non-crucial background programs to only run when it would not affect the performance of other applications. Programs like this may cause the CPU to be at 100% utilization all the time which causes the CPU to consume more power, since most modern CPUs can enter power-save modes when they are completely idle.

God Forbid
November 1, 2012 by Ben Crystal
Mormonism doesnŌĆÖt work for me. I just wanted to get that straight, right off the bat. I have serious doubts about the timeline of events proffered by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I just canŌĆÖt swallow the idea that the Son of Man rolled away the rock and then ascended into heaven, only to make a pit stop on the other side of the planet. ItŌĆÖs not that I doubt that Jesus could have dropped in on the loincloth-and-human-sacrifice set; but if He did, His lessons clearly didnŌĆÖt take — until Hern├Īn Cort├®s and his Spanish legions reinforced it at the end of a musket. I likewise find the details of golden plates and seer stones pretty dubious.
But hereŌĆÖs the really cool part: I donŌĆÖt spend time thinking about LDS doctrine, nor do I have to. Mormons are welcome to believe whatever the heck they want; the last time I checked, thatŌĆÖs the American (not to mention Constitutional) way. And I would have guessed that the Democrats would move to the front of line to join me in dismissing attempts to criticize any candidate based on his religious beliefs. After all, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) shares the Mormon faith espoused by Governor Mitt Romney; and I have heard no howls of derision pouring forth from the left regarding Reid donning any ŌĆ£magic underwear,ŌĆØ promoting polygamy or otherwise planning to impose his faith on those of us who prefer the booze to contain actual alcohol.
To be completely honest, with Congressmen like Representative Keith Ellison (D-Minn.), a Muslim, keeping company with Islamofascist-linked hate groups like the Council on American-Islamic Relations while the Democrats accuse his detractors of religious bigotry and intolerance, it ought to follow that the LDS church, which has no ties to suicide bombers or their financiers, is free of the fickle finger of fatuousness.
It ought to follow, but it doesnŌĆÖt. As I perused media and social networking sites, I caught a recurring theme of liberals launching venom at Romney and his faith. From Daily Beast Brit and Obama cheerleader Andrew SullivanŌĆÖs statement that ŌĆ£Mitt Romney belonged to a white supremacist church for 31 years of his lifeŌĆØ to ŌĆ£DoonesburyŌĆØ (yes Virginia, it does still exist) cartoonist Garry TrudeauŌĆÖs crude attacks in a series of comic strips, there was nary a shred of religious acceptance to be found.
That sort of mouth-breathing, ignorant hate represents the worst kind of mindless political assault. And it is hardly isolated. The same Democrats who find EllisonŌĆÖs pals such fun at a party have no room in their hearts for a guy who thinks of Utah as the Promised Land. The same liberals who cheered the idea of a mosque within AK-47 range of Ground Zero canŌĆÖt abide the idea of a teetotaler in the Oval Office. The same Obama backers who slander anyone who opposes Obama with the rhetorical brush of racism just canŌĆÖt imagine a Mormon in the White House.
If the Democrats really do want Americans to look past those matters of faith that separate us, then perhaps RomneyŌĆÖs religion ought not be a sticking point in 2012. There is no shortage of reasons to object to Romney, and heŌĆÖs eminently preferable to the abominable Obama. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints causes me no great consternation. ItŌĆÖs not as if the Mormon clergy espouse a doctrine of hatred, racism and ŌĆ£God damn America.ŌĆØ Now that would be wrong, wouldnŌĆÖt it?

Seventh Generation
- Location: online only
- Website: seventhgeneration.com
Keeping the faith. There are a number of really good companies that produce and sell environmentally sound home products, but Seventh Generation is one of the best, offering almost everything you need under one roof.
Taking their name from the great Iriquois belief that "In our every deliberation, we must consider the impact of our decisions on the next seven generations," Seventh Generation sets the lead in producing and making available household cleaners, paper products, bulbs and trash bags that will not compromise our earth's future.
While the products don't always compete with toxic brands in terms of pure cleaning power, they don't hide this fact and are constantly improving what they can do without harming our eco system. We order from them to stock our home and the houses that we rent to others in the summer.
Mikhaela says: I use Seventh Generation products for the most part after a bad experience cleaning my bathroom with bleach cleaner during the winter. ...Sadly the Seventh Generation products don't work quite as well, but at least I can breathe.

I've been using their paper towels and cleaning fluids in our apartment for about a year now, and I've been very happy with them
I have tried most of their stuff
The Laundry detergent is real good, my skin problems stopped after using it. My previous detergent was to harh.
The dishwashing liquid is also good.
The paper towels are acceptable but expensive.
The toilet cleaner works, but the fragrance doesn't last
This is the truth
Otherwise I feel good about using their products, which you cannot put a pricetag on.
I really like the idea of the Method brand, which fuses safer ingredients with cool packaging design. I use the hand soap, which I found at DR, but cannot find any other products there. I ordered the laundry soap from their website, but paid almost as much for shipping as for the product! The laundry soap was great, as was the dispenser top on the bottle.
Anybody know where I can get a wider range of this brand in manhattan?
I think mxyplyzyk (never quite positive about that spelling) in the Village and The Terence Conran Shop sell the Method brand. And I have seen it also at Target.
I love the idea of Method, but their dishwashing soap is terrible. Smells lovely, but just does not work. The hand soap is carried in Duane Reade, but I am not sure if they have any other products.
Does Seventh Generation (or any other eco-friendly brand) make a "Soft-scrub" type product?
You can buy them at amazon.com They often have free S&H (on orders over $25) plus no tax
May I humbly propose Dr. Bronner's soap and baking soda, which, when combined in a paste, is a very effective and economical tub cleaner. Rather than buy costly, new eco products, look back to the cleaning recipes of a few generations back. And as for paper towels, I really can't see any eco-friendly use for them. Rags work fine and go to the landfill at a much, much more elderly stage in life than paper towels.
Target sells a decent range of Method products.
I've used the dishwashing liquid and thought it was just fine.
I dunno how eco-friendly it actually is though.
I agree about the Method dish detergent-but it may be due to my gauging the efficacy by suds, which this brand has next to none. Otherwise it seems fine. I am one who doesn't appreciate the packaging. I transfer it to a used Kiehl's bottle with the label removed. I really don't want more advertising to look at in my home. There's more than enough when I walk outside.

Public Safety: While the Justice Department reports a significant decline in violent crime nation-wide as well as in Chicago, the raw numbers are still too high.

It is essential that we do everything we can to prevent crime and promote public safety. Read more...

Your Neighborhoods Walk Score
I've waxed poetic many times about my own hood, and one of the reasons I've always loved Silver Lake is its walking friendly nature (we even have a local celebrity known for his daily walking habits!). Want to find out how walking friendly your neighborhood is? Check out Walk Score, which displays a score between 1-100, calculating walkability by the proximity of destinations such as grocery stores, restaurants, schools, libraries, bookstores and parks...all the places that make for a vibrant community. Who says nobody walks in LA? We scored an 83!
14 Comments
as a Los Feliz-er I agree! the walkability of the east side is what makes it so attractive I think
hmmm, the sight seems to be down at the moment.
Specifically, it says, "We've reached our Google Maps API limit and are in touch with Google to get the site back up.
Add to Favorites and try visiting us tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience!"
Perhaps too many ATers?
Wow, feel the power and presence of AT! We're like Digg readers, except with exceptional decor ;)
I'm a Los Feliz-er walker too!!!!! My feet have power!
Love it - can walk to just about anything you would need!! The hills, market(s), banks, movies, restaurants, friends, my old job, etc etc etc.....
I am in Hancock Park/Windsor Square and live a block from Larchmont Blvd. To be able to go to the bank, drycleaner, newsstand pharmacy and restaurants without getting in my car is such a pleasure. I see at least one of my neighbors doing the same every time I am on Larchmont.
I was getting the java syntax error so could not see how my neighborhood rates.
I live in Seattle's Capitol Hill neighborhood and despite the hilly terrain, it's quite walkable and I walk everywhere, to the grocery store, restaurants and the like. It's fantastic.
In the Miracle Mile, we got a very respectable 78 and my neighbor's address down the street (closer to Wilshire) got an 85! There are walkable areas throughout LA, you just have to have faith...
I was getting that error this morning too.
West L.A. I got myself a score of 66! My parents in the San Diego suburbs had a 20! Yikes!
However this doesn't take into account if the places you are walking are places you'll actually utilize. I border a few areas that aren't so great and wouldn't walk toward those areas alone. I am, unfortunately, much more likely to drive a further distance the opposite direction. Also, restaurants and bars listed I wasn't too sure about...
I looked up my mother's beautiful lakeshore house in New Hampshire and the road that runs along the lake was rated as, "Worst." I guess not spending money while looking at natural beauty is a bad thing according to Walk Score.
Hey Hoot, don't take it too personally, I believe your mom's lakeshore 'hood is all that despite the score. Walk Score clearly states their score is far from perfect:
We'll be the first to admit that Walk Score is just an approximation of walkability. There are a number of factors that contribute to walkability that are not part of our algorithm:
* Street width: Narrow streets are better for walking because they slow traffic.
* Block length: Short blocks make it easier to navigate the grid.
* Freeways: Freeways can divide neighborhoods and hurt walkability.
* Public transit: Good public transit is important for walkable neighborhoods.
* Safety: How much crime is in the neighborhood? How many traffic accidents are there? Are crosswalks well marked and streets well lit?
* Aesthetics: Are the sidewalks shaded by trees? Are there appealing parks and public spaces?
* Pedestrian-friendly design: Are buildings close to the sidewalk with parking in back? If buildings have large parking lots in front, they are less inviting to pedestrians.
As MarlonBain said, "You should use the Web 3.0 app called going outside and investigating the world for yourself" before deciding whether a neighborhood is walkable!
As expected - 0 out of 100. I read all the "green" ideas about using a bike/walking/reducing automobile use. LOL! We're about 2.5 miles of mountainous terrain to the nearest anything. With two kids in tow, no thanks. Disclaimer: We're about 300 ft from National Forest trails with private access and wouldn't move if you paid us. :-)
Cool site & idea!
100 outta 100! Woo hoo! Yes, in L.A. County (South Bay). But, I'm seeing a lot of empty store fronts popping up recently in my neighborhood. Buying from independent retail and walkability are interdependent, you're right.
Okay, just seeing this posting now...but ran my walk score and got a 57 out of 100??? I live in Santa Monica 4 blocks from the beach and a local park overlooking the pacific and a few blocks from Montana shops and right near the Santa Monica stairs! This makes no sense, people come into our area to walk and jog all the time. Any time of the day there are people walking to shops or walking their dogs. We bought our place because of how walkable it is. According to Gregory's list, we should have a high number, based on those criteria. If a place like our scores low yet Loz Feliz scores high (which I used to live there for many years) then this makes me think this site is not correct at all, both places are equally walkable.
I got a score of 71 (in LA, on the east side between Silverlake/Los Feliz and Koreatown). I do walk a lot in my neighborhood, but people are always surprised that I do. It's not the most scenic, but I can get around very easily and I love being able to walk to the corner store when I need something or walk to the library. And I'm also nearby a Metro station. But when we first moved, my boyfriend and I made sure that we would be by Metro/bus lines as he doesn't drive. So I think it's just one of those things that you can choose to make a priority. I grew up in a very affluent, beautiful neighborhood that was great for taking scenic walks, but where the closest stores were 40 minute walks. So I really enjoy being able to walk to things easily.

This is the daily tech show to beat all others.
Whether you want a high-quality printer, an all-in-one workhorse, a compact photo printer, or a simp
The Canon Pixma MX7600 multifunction is a huge improvement over the previous model. With additional features such as an autoduplexer, increased faxing options, and an upgraded control cockpit, we have no problem recommending the MX7600.
The Canon Pixma MX372 is a sensible printing solution for personal use, but photographers and offices looking for a network-ready printer could spend a little more up front for better output quality.
If you're shopping for a sub-$100 multifunction printer for intermittent use in your home, the Canon Pixma MP495 will meet your needs. It prints, scans, and copies documents, and the integrated wireless print server means you won't have a bundle of cables tangling up the office. We have a few flaws to nitpick, but otherwise Canon scores with the Pixma MP495.
A digital camera is a valuable imaging resource, but what happens when you need a physical copy? For when virtual sharing just isn't good enough, Canon takes the opportunity at CES 2013 to reveal four new Pixma multifunction inkjet printers.
The Canon Pixma MX410 isn't the fastest printer in its image class, but its auto-document feeder, wireless connectivity, and the comprehensive Canon software suite earn this multifunction printer our recommendation for light to moderate monthly output.
The Canon Pixma MX700 is a great choice for small offices with a wide variety of print tasks. This inkjet multifunction beats out the competition with a winning combination of features and performance.
If you work in a one-person office and are on a tight budget, the Pixma MX300 is a good fit; you won't find better quality output from comparably priced all-in-one inkjets. You'll need to keep shopping, however, if you need built-in networking or fast prints.
The Canon Pixma MX860's auto-document feeder, large LCD screen, and quick print speeds are sure to increase your productivity, but it also includes plenty of software to nourish your creative interests. At $199, this multifunctional printer earns our recommendation.
The Canon Pixma MX330 doesn't produce the best quality prints, but you won't find a more versatile printer in the sub-$150 category. An auto-document feeder, 1.8-inch LCD screen, and easy-to-use features make it an excellent choice for creative homes on a budget.

The end of the Cold War 25 years ago essentially ended public discussion of nuclear weapons until the advent of the Obama presidency.
Obama has declared his intention to eliminate nuclear weapons, has entered into a treaty with Russia to reduce the number of nuclear weapons in each nation's arsenal to 1,550 (which counts missiles and aircraft as warheads) and has called for a further reduction by one-third in the allowable number of weapons.
Last Sunday, CBS' "60 Minutes" program started building a case for Obama's cuts by raising doubts about the age, effectiveness and safety of our land-based missile force. According to the "expert" they interviewed, there wouldn't be any harm in eliminating that force altogether. How they reach that conclusion without reference to the threats we face or the systems that make up our offensive and defensive systems is a mystery.
America dealt with the threat of Soviet nuclear forces through deterrence achieved by building a massive nuclear force of missiles and aircraft. Both sides knew that a nuclear strike by one would result in a nation-destroying counterstrike by the other. From 1961 to 2003, we had the "Single Integrated Operational Plan," a strategy by which American nuclear weapons could be used only by direct presidential order. It defined how and when nuclear weapons could be used and aimed several missiles and aircraft at each target. It wasn't designed as overkill but to reflect the realities that cause different weapons to fail to reach their targets.
The Soviet's operational plans allowed military commanders far below their senior civilian leaders to order the use of nuclear weapons. That may still be their doctrine under the Putin government. But even in the worst of crises -- such as the Cuban missile crisis of 1962 -- the U.S. and the Soviet Union didn't resort to using nuclear weapons. Deterrence worked.
The dangers we faced then haven't disappeared, though they are not mentioned in polite company. The Russian nuclear missiles are gradually being modernized. China, North Korea and Pakistan all have nuclear weapons and the means to deliver them. Soon Iran will as well. The value of all of our adversaries' forces is diminished by the other side of deterrence, our ballistic missile defense systems which are still being developed and deployed. (Loose language in Obama's deal with Russia apparently counts missile defenses in the offensive weapons number.) Those defenses now are comprised of only 30 interceptor missiles stationed in Alaska and California. (The 30 Navy ships which have anti-missile capabilities are mostly tasked to defend the fleet, not our homeland, though four are detailed to NATO missile defense in Europe.)
Most nations are still susceptible of deterrence, the exception being Iran. So the value of deterrence, though less than it was during the Cold War, is still high.
At some point, reductions in the deterrent force could result in it being too small to deter some threats. But when? To decide that, we need a new SIOP, one which takes into account both the size and deliverability of our and our adversaries' nuclear weapons and our ballistic missile defenses.
As "60 Minutes" pointed out, much of our land-based missile force has outdated infrastructure, though the missiles themselves are entirely capable. What we need is a plan, funded by Congress, to ensure that all three legs of the triad are both modernized and sized to deter or defeat the threats.
President Obama's 2013 "nuclear strategy" document simply isn't one.
Congress should require that the Pentagon draft and implement a new SIOP which would be based on the best intelligence we have on the threats. It would measure our deterrent forces and craft a match between a new strategy (including a new operational doctrine) and the offensive and defensive weapons we may need to make the strategy workable.Jed Babbin served as a deputy undersecretary of defense in the George H.W.

Former Massey Energy Company shareholders cannot bring a derivative action to enforce an earlier settlement because
they lost their rights to do so following the company's merger, the West
Virginia Supreme Court decided.
Attorneys argued their case Sept. 4
to the state Supreme Court in the case of Manville Personal Injury Settlement
Trust, Longview Collective Investment Funds and California State Teachers'
Retirement System v. Don Blankenship, Baxter Phillips Jr,. Gordon Gee, Richard
M. Gabrys, James B. Crawford, Bobby R. Inman, Robert H. Foglesong, Stanley C.
Suboleski, J. Christopher Adkins, M. Shane Harvey, Mark A Clemens, Elizabeth S.
Chamberlin, Richard R. Grinnan and Massey Energy Company, now known as Alpha
Appalachia Holdings Inc.
Chief Justice Brent Benjamin recused himself from the case.
Senior Status Justice Thomas McHugh sat in his place.
Manville filed the lawsuit in Kanawha County Circuit Court
derivatively on behalf of Massey Energy Company, asserting its board members
turned a blind eye to safety and to federal and state regulations, which hurt
the company's financial standing.
A Kanawha County Circuit Court judge granted the defendants'
motions to dismiss Manville's petition for civil contempt and also vacated a
2008 order.
According to court documents, in May 2008 both sides executed
a stipulation of settlement, providing a release of claims that could have been
asserted derivatively on behalf of Massey.
The stipulation provided Massey would implement agreed
corporate governance changes under a corporate governance agreement. This
stipulation was approved by the court in June 2008.
Manville later filed a petition alleging certain Massey
officers were violating the 2008 order because they said the corporate social
responsibility report did not contain a worker safety compliance.
The circuit court ruled Manville did not have standing to
enforce the settlement other than derivatively on behalf of Massey and whether
it can file it derivatively would be governed by Delaware
Before the state Supreme Court, Manville asserts Massey
Energy officers and directors did not comply with the lower court's order,
which they say mandated the monitoring of violations and safety issues.
Manville argued the court also should have applied state law
pursuant to a choice-of-law provision and should not have found that an
exception warranted application of Delaware
The Sept. 13 state Supreme Court ruling concluded Manville
lacked standing to pursue contempt proceedings against Massey.
The opinion said Manville failed to allege the merger was
fraudulent. When the companies merged, the opinion states, Manville no longer
was a shareholder and under Delaware
law, that meant it lost standing to pursue derivative claims on Massey's
In their court brief, Massey officers asserted Manville did
not bring forth any new issues.
"Although petitioners spend almost one-third of their
brief … on the tragic explosion at Massey subsidiary Performance Coal Company's
Upper Big Branch mine … and respondents' purported noncompliance with the 2008
order, these are not the issues before the court in the instant
proceeding," the brief states.
The brief asserted Manville's arguments should be rejected
because when Alpha and Massey merged, Manville no longer owned Massey shares
and thus lacked standing to seek contempt.

Not too long ago, we brought you news that allowed HTC EVO 4G LTE users to customize their bootloaders. The process was pretty cool, allowing users to make their bootloader look however they want—including making it look unhacked. After the initial project was released, users clamored for this to be made available to more devices. The requests were heard and responded to. Now, the plugin has been made available to make the bootloader customizer for a number of HTC devices.
The process for a developer to port this is not hard. XDA Recognized Contributor regaw_leinad, who developed the application and plugin, takes a time out from the stags (yes, that's really him) to explain how:
it's basically all written, they just need to fill in the values for their hboot, and embed the hboot.img into the exe. I already have a placeholder for the hboot.img and android-info.txt so a drag and drop over them should keep it embedded.
Regaw_leinad is also creating the application for the supported devices, but wanted to release the plugin first so users had a chance to get it sooner. The current list of supported HTC devices include:
While the list is quite large, one must keep in mind that not all of these devices have S-Off, and users must have S-Off in order to actually use this application. To get started, visit the original thread.

Wildfire owners how have unlocked their boot-loaders using alpharev x running stock 2.2.1 with HTC Sense may be interested to hear of the fix that XDA forum member rickwyatt has posted in the forums.
The fix is for 2.2.1 HTC Sense where HTC wallpapers and the HTC settings wizard were not working properly, and default widgets were missing after a hard reset. The fix should work with all 2.2.1 ROMs including custom ROMs.
You'll need to copy the file uploaded by the XDA member to your SD card, install a 2.2.1 ROM or use you backup, flash recovery recovery-clockwork-22.214.171.124-buzz or higher, flash sense-fix, hard reset and finally, reboot.
For more information and download links, head on over to the forum thread.

Are you an HTC Wildfire user dying for some tasty S-Off action? Luckily AlphaRev X, which is intended on achieving exactly that, has just entered public beta.
Starting with an issue he faced himself, XDA forum member dannyjmcguinness has created a support thread regarding the public beta. Obtaining S-Off is a rather large milestone, as it allows custom kernels and ROMs to be flashed without any issue. Additionally, files in the /system partition can be modified while the device is powered on, enabling programs like MetaMorph to work as expected. Essentially, achieving S-Off makes the device truly yours.
If this tickles your fancy, please continue on to the support thread and grab a copy of the public beta yourself. Be warned, however, as this is quite the risky procedure.
[Thanks to scanja500 for pointing this out!]

About a month ago, XDA member danne_jo had began working on something for the HTC Wildfire. The little device was now being fitted to run Gingerbread, and not AOSP. The port to this was what it is commonly known as a Ginger-Sense build (Gingerbread and Sense if you haven't figured it out just yet). Now, you may be thinking that is is relatively old news and that you have seen Ginger-Sense ports for many other devices. Well, the thing is that the ports have been for far more powerful devices, and this is why the Wildfire gets an honorary mention in the Hall of Fame for being able to run this. Other devs have jumped into the project and so far there seems to be good progress. XDA member evilisto has been hard at play as well and has been able to get Wifi connectivity to work with it (as well as a few other things according to the video that he posted). Please remember before trying… it is very early in the project and thus, the releases so far are alpha quality. Many things still don't work, so don't expect this to be a daily driver just yet. Having said that, if your ORD is itching, you can always take it for a spin.
Please share your feedback with the devs if you end up trying this out.
I'm working on but no major progress.. pretty much the same as Sebastian's original rom.
but wifi is fixed just a few minutes ago lol
some more screenshots and video.. weather app(with sound effects)

Swype has been one of the most revolutionary keyboards for mobile devices since the introduction of Android. The Swype project has grown considerably over the past couple of years and it has become one of Android's must have apps. The downfall was that due to limitations in the coding and licensing, only certain devices were allowed to have the keyboard installed. One big hurdle that is usually a factor when porting apps was the screen resolution, and because of this, QVGA devices did not have the chance to sport this keyboard. According to a thread started by XDA member NickHu, Swype seems to be pro-actively developing backwards as well in an attempt to include the few remaining devices with smaller screen resolutions. In this new beta update, QVGA devices are finally being supported by the keyboard. According to several members, the app works wonderfully well and has a UK English dictionary as an added bonus.
Please keep in mind that the app is in beta, and you will probably need to register in the Swype beta program in order to use it. Any feedback about performance will be greatly appreciated.
Attention Wildfire users! Swype has been updated to use QVGA resolutions, and therefore supports the Wildfire! … And it looks pretty! Sign up for the beta at now!

Not too long ago (in fact, just a few hours ago) we told you how some of the older devices should be kept for a reason, since they pack more punch than our beloved carriers and manufacturers make us believe. Same goes for lower end devices like the HTC Wildfire, which thanks to XDA member ben1066, it just got its first taste of Android 3.0. Due to the little development on this device, the port took a little bit longer than the rest. However, it still made its way through and right now has the same functionality as many higher end devices. Needless to say, tons of things are non-functional, so do not expect to use this as your daily driver. Yet, just like with any sports car, taking it for a test drive should be fun.
If you think that you can contribute to this project, please swing by and leave some feedback for the dev.
Yes, at last it's here. This is a basic port from the honeycomb full SDK and more doesn't work than does work, unfortunately.
What Works:
All buttons but home,

In the most recent innovations for most Android devices, there is an app that has taken 'root' among Android users. This is called "1-Click Root", and it is available for many devices, including the Samsung Galaxy S series, the EVO, and many more. Now, it is the time for the HTC Buzz-Wildfire to get a shot at freedom. XDA member MartinEve has created a program to allow for a software root solution, which basically will grant some SuperUser permissions, but it is not the complete root. However, the dev says that he is in the process of trying to make the process into a true 1-Click root in order to be able to install goodies such as the beloved Cyanogenmod. Drop in the thread and help the dev if you know something about rooting.
Hi all,
As posted the other day, I have managed to get a temporary software-only root solution that will allow you to run some applications that require su. I am currently in discussion with some of the unrEVOked team to take this a step further and get the NAND protection defeated, clockworkmod etc. For now, though, I present an extremely simple, low risk, software root. Yes, it's not quite 1-click (it's 1-click once you've done the initial steps), but it's pretty easy.

The Wildfire – the Desire's baby brother – was unveiled earlier in the year by HTC. It sports a 3.2″ QVGA capacitive touchscreen, 384MB RAM and a 528MHz processor among the expected specifications of a cute, pocket-friendly Android device that fits a low budget. HTC's Wildfire (orignally codenamed 'Buzz') will run Eclair 2.1 with Sense and should be available to you soon.
In anticipation of its release and the development-related interest behind the device, we've gone ahead and given the Wildfire its own space on the site. The Android Development board and other traditional topics will be added once the public has got a hold of the phone, but you can visit the new section here.

This page is a work in progress and should be finished in an hour or two.
Setting up Development Environment
The Bioinformatics Laboratory, which leads and hosts Orange development, employs a wide variety of researchers of developers. Each and every one of us has his/her own preference regarding the development environment. It is our intention on this page to present some of configurations we use that seem to work well.
At the moment, unfortunately, only one configuration is described: Eclipse under Linux, specifically Ubuntu.
Ubuntu & Eclipse
This procedure has been written for and tested on Ubuntu 11.04, but should also work for newer and older (down to 10.04) releases.
Package Installation
You need to install the following packages:
- eclipse will be your IDE, and one of its plugins we will install needs libsvn-java to work,
- make, g++, python-dev, python-numpy, python-matplotlib and python-imaging are needed to build and use the Orange scripting environment, and
- python-qwt5-qt4 is needed in order for the Orange Canvas (GUI) to work,
- python-sphinx and dvipng are needed to build the HTML documentation.
Beware that Sphinx has to be at least of version 1.0; Ubuntu 10.10 and older contain older versions of Sphinx, so you should not install the one from apt repository, but find another way, such as easy_install.
This is the command to install all those packages in one shot:
sudo apt-get install eclipse libsvn-java make g++ python-dev python-numpy python-matplotlib python-imaging python-qwt5-qt4 python-sphinx dvipng
If you wish to use Orange for network analysis, you also need a recent version of networkx; you can install it with:
sudo apt-get install python-setuptools sudo easy_install networkx
Next, you need to run Eclipse and install the needed plugins: CDT (C/C++ Development Tooling), PyDev (Python IDE for Eclipse) and Subclipse (for Subversion repository support). Choose Help->Install New Software... and add the following Update Sites:
- CDT Site: http://download.eclipse.org/tools/cdt/releases/galileo
- PyDev Site: http://pydev.org/updates/
- Subclipse Site: http://subclipse.tigris.org/update_1.6.x
Choose –All Available Sites– for the "Work with" option and install the following choices: Subclipse, PyDev and CDT Main Features.
Obtaining the Code
Switch to the SVN Repository Exploring perspective and add the following repository location: http://orange.biolab.si/svn/orange. Then browse into the trunk directory (or elsewhere, if you know what you're doing) and checkout source, orange and, optionally, testing (in this order). Use the "Check out as a project configured using the New Project Wizard" option for all projects and configure projects as follows.
For source, select C/C++->C++ Project. Select Makefile project->Empty Project->Linux GCC for Project type and Toolchain. Later in this guide it will be assumed you used the directory name (ie. source) for project name.
Under project properties, C/C++ Build->Environment, add the following environmental variables:
- ORANGE_LIBDIR=${ProjDirPath}
- COMPILEOPTIONS=-ggdb
- LINKOPTIONS=-ggdb
(If you intend to invoke make on the commandline, you can add those properties into the Makefile and makefile.defs.)
To accelerate the compilation process on a multi-processor or multi-core machine, you may instruct Eclipse to use parallel build (-j switch to the make): go to project properties for source project and under C/C++ Build->Behaviour check "Use parallel build". Manually enter a desired parallel jobs count; do NOT use "optimal jobs number": Eclipse likes to run all possible compilations at once and you'll probably run out of RAM.
For both orange and testing, select Pydev->Pydev Project. Later in this guide it will be assumed you used the directory name for project name (ie. orange and testing). Uncheck the "Create default 'src' folder" checkbox. Configure the interpreter if Eclipse requests so; you may use the Auto Config button with default settings. Select source as a referenced project of orange, and orange of testing.
Path Settings
To be able to run Orange, you need to add some directories to the PYTHONPATH. Here, we will assume you only have one version of Orange on your system and you want to use it from within Eclipse and also outside it. If you have more than one version of Orange, we'll assume you also know the best way to deal with your paths.
Open a terminal and go to your workspace directory (which contains at least orange and source directories). Now invoke the following:
( echo -e "$PWD/source\n$PWD/orange\n$PWD/orange/OrangeCanvas\n$PWD/orange/OrangeWidgets" && find $PWD/orange/OrangeWidgets -maxdepth 1 -type d -regex '[^\.].*' ) | sudo tee `python -c "from distutils.sysconfig import get_python_lib; print get_python_lib()"`/orange.pth
You will need to provide your password, because sudo is used to write to a system directory. You may dissect the command to figure out what it does; it basically puts some paths in your workspace to a file orange.pth in python's dist-packages directory.
Enabling Running and Debugging
For debugging, it's best to set up three debug configurations: one for Python code, one for C++ code with Orange Canvas being invoked and one without Canvas to debug in python scripting environment. Choose Run->Debug Configurations and set up the following configurations.
Add a new "Python Run" configuration, name it orange-canvas-python, select orange as the project and OrangeCanvas/orngCanvas.pyw as the main module. Click apply.
Now add a new "C/C++ Application" configuration, name it orange-Cpp, select source as the project and /usr/bin/python as the C/C++ Application. Debugger (in the Debugger tab) should be set to "gdb Debugger" and "Stop on startup" not checked. You may now apply the configuration.
Now clone the last configuration, name it orange-canvas-Cpp and add, in the Arguments tab, type ${workspace_loc}/orange/OrangeCanvas/orngCanvas.pyw as program arguments.
