Pros: Strong battery life; High resolution screen; Incredibly good looking;
Cons: Poor Audio; Track pad needs better software; Shallow keyboard;
Asus' ZenBook is the most stunning Ultrabook on shop shelves today.
By Larissa Mac | Thursday | 12/04/2012
I'm not going to toy around: Asus' ZenBook is the most stunning Ultrabook on shop shelves today. On the aesthetic front it demolishes its Toshiba and Acer Ultrabook competition and is the closest to matching the allure found in Apple's MacBook Air.
I'm not going to toy around: Asus' ZenBook is the most stunning Ultrabook on shop shelves today. On the aesthetic front it demolishes its Toshiba and Acer Ultrabook competition and is the closest to matching the allure found in Apple's MacBook Air.
It looks sublime from every angle. Its metal lid is characterised by a concentric circle design which draws lingering eyes to its complementing Asus badge, giving the brand the usually elusive prestige aura.
A small lip found on the middle of its lid makes it easy to open the Ultrabook. It also helps that its 1.4kg weight is distributed evenly, giving it the sure footing Acer's Aspire S3 lacks.
Once the lid is opened, a two toned interior continues charming users. The silver keyboard matches its brushed steel base and track pad, while a dark grey screen bezel complements the key's tray.
The hinge used to bind the screen to the base is perforated, acting as a speaker grill which audio seeps through.
The ZenBook is an orgy of bespoke, premium and quality parts, with even the most insignificant components appearing sculptured.
The track pad has a polished texture to it, and although the hardware feels right, it and the software fail to communicate fluently. When browsing the web, multi-touch inputs seem inconsistent and jittery. You're always over or under zooming, inspiring frustration when all you want to do is surf from one page to the next without any hassle.
Most of the time it's a minor inconvenience and can be tended to by turning off multi-touch input, but it shouldn't have to come to that.
Beyond the inconsistent functionality of its keyboard and track pad, the UX31 gets back on track with strong connectivity support. Facing the monitor, its left side features a USB 2.0 port, auxiliary (3.5mm) input and a SD card slot, while right side harbours a USB 3.0 port, microHDMI input, a charging port and a VGA (D-sub) input.
The UX31 sports a 13.3 inch LED backlit LCD screen that has a 1600 x 900 resolution. For those unfamiliar with the quantitative measurement and technical jargon, the ZenBook's screen is well back lit, incredibly sharp and impressively thin. It still amazes me that, Ultrabooks in general, can house this kind of technology in such restrictive confines. Compared to Acer's Aspire S3 and Toshiba's Z830 Portege, the screen is the best in its class.
The Zenbook's sound is full of body and stretches across the range. There are delicate lows, articulate mid tones and sonic highs. Unfortunately there's an additional layer of repelling potent distortion. Every time you watch a YouTube video, play music or even chat via Skype, an unattractive buzzing noise lurks in the background. It gives the impression Asus bit more of than they can chew and the Bang and Olufsen speaker decal is yet another cosmetic attribute.
I was hopeful that my review unit was faulty, but the noise persisted even after Asus were kind enough to send out another ZenBook for review.
The introductory UX31 ZenBook comes with an Intel Core i5 CPU that clocks 1.7GHz, 4GB of DDR3 RAM, 128GB of SSD memory and a bloated $1,500 recommended retail price.
The review unit we had was a little higher in the food chain, and benefitted from the Intel Core i7 1.8GHz processor and 256GB SSD memory drive. These little additions up the price to a $2,000, which is right on par with Acer's range topping S3. The innards are impressive, especially when you take into consideration the ZenBook's puny proportions. It was a sucker for punishment, withstanding video playback, web browsing (ten tabs worth open, via WiFi), Microsoft Word and Facebook chat. It's easily powerful enough for everyday computing, ideal for the common businessman and tertiary student. However, if you're a gaming enthusiast, there are better suited buys.
Older notebooks running Windows were pretty slow when waking up from hibernation. Ultrabooks have tended to this inconvenience by using a feature they coin as 'instant on.' As promised by Asus, the ZenBook does awake from hibernation in roughly 2 seconds.
When it comes to battery life, the Zenbook earns another point. When playing video back-to-back with WiFi still running, the battery lasted little over 3 hours and performed even better with light usage, almost reaching a market leading five and a half hours.
It should be noted all Asus ZenBooks come with a Solid State Drive (no HDD option) and are incredibly well equipped on the accessory front, bundled with an elegant carry bag and various peripheral adaptors.
The jittery track pad and shallow keys are small prices to pay for a notebook that performs in every other area exceptionally. However, when coupled with the dismal sound quality, the Zenbook trips, falling below acceptable, and right into barely bearable. It is painfully attractive because you want to love the ZenBook. It looks so good you want to be proud of it, but unfortunately the track pad, keyboard and abysmal audio leaves you cringing.
Hopefully by the next generation of Ultrabooks, Asus will produce a product with the same irresistible beauty, but equipped with the functionality to match.

By Ann S. Kim email@example.com
Staff Writer
ALFRED — A Thomaston man who is accused in an alleged prostitution operation in Kennebunk failed Friday in his attempt to have the judge in the case recuse herself and to have his case dismissed.
Mark Strong Sr., 57, an insurance agent and private investigator, was charged in July with promotion of prostitution, a misdemeanor. No one else has been charged in the case.
His attorney, Daniel Lilley, argued that the case should be dismissed because prosecutors have not followed the rules of discovery. Lilley said he should have received documents and other evidence from prosecutors by Aug. 10 but still has not.
York County Superior Court Justice Joyce Wheeler ruled that dismissal was not appropriate because there was no evidence that prosecutors acted in bad faith.
"I would say maybe the state has gotten in a bit over its head in terms of the sheer volume and managing it," Wheeler said of the evidence.
Wheeler said she expects parties to follow the rules of discovery and told the prosecution that it must be more responsive.
Lilley said that two calls to the York County District Attorney's Office were not returned -- the prosecutor said she did not get the message -- and that he filed his motion two weeks after the Aug. 10 deadline to get the judge's attention.
He said he didn't get a call from prosecutors until this week. He was then able to see the quantity of evidence at the Kennebunk Police Department but was not allowed to examine it, he said.
Prosecutors are dealing with an extremely large amount of data, said Deputy District Attorney Justina McGettigan.
Authorities gathered evidence in February from Alexis Wright's home in Wells, the fitness studio in Kennebunk where she taught Zumba classes and her nearby office space. In July, police searched Strong's home and office in Thomaston.
According to a police affidavit, the searches of Wright's home and workplaces turned up evidence of significant business and personal connections between Strong and Wright. They also found video of Wright engaged in sexual acts, a price list and "meticulous" client records, according to the affidavit, which was for Strong's arrest.
The existence of a list of alleged clients -- rumored to include prominent figures -- has fueled speculation about who was involved. Defense lawyers in southern Maine have said that clients have been seeking legal representation.
Lilley has said he will subpoena the alleged clients and anyone else involved in the case.
He has said that Wright hired Strong to investigate her complaints of harassment by Kennebunk police. Strong loaned Wright money, thinking he was investing in a legitimate business, according to Lilley.
Assistant Attorney General Gregg Bernstein, who investigates financial crimes, formally joined the case two or three weeks ago.
The affidavit says authorities have Maine tax returns filed by Wright and estimate that the sex acts would have generated $150,000. The document also indicates that authorities have footage of Wright asking Strong to check license plate numbers, but it does not explain why.
McGettigan said it was surprising how much evidence was discovered in Thomaston, given how much time Strong had to destroy evidence. The affidavits for the searches in Thomaston remain sealed.
The information that prosecutors have leads in many directions and involves many parties, and the state wants to make sure that if it charges someone it will be able to, without the cooperation of others, prove beyond a reasonable doubt that a crime has occurred, she said.

just outside my mom's goat barn. ;) Two adorable little doelings, both born breech. My mom helped the first one out and I helped the second one out (after seeing how stunned and wet sounding the first one was, I didn't let the second one sit there quite as long). Really cute and my three children are totally in love with the goat kids. :)
Ain't life wonderful! We have baby sparrows on the front porch. I love spring. In Michigan all is green and lush with the promise of more to come. Morrels and steak for dinner tomorrow! Yum.
How sweet,!! Would that human breech and twin births were treated so normally.
I envy you guys the distinct seasonal changes, not that I would trade places though!
awwww :)
~ "Jesus was born unassisted" ~ ?!?
Possibly, the Bible doesn't say whether or not they had a midwife, but according to the Protogospel of James, a 1st century writer, the Innkeepers daughter was there to midwife. I believe her name was Dorcas, but I could be wrong about the name, I read it long ago.

Great, reliable work. Dwayne, one of the owners, is straightforward and honest. This is the 3rd time I've brought my car in and the first 2 times, I just needed a couple very minor things adjusted and he didn't even charge me. He even remembered me when I brought my car in the 3rd time for a rattling sound. I thought I had to get my timing belt fixed because of the code that came up on a Diagnositc check at Advanced Auto Parts, but Dwayne told me I simply had to change my oil on time! Whew!
Great, reliable and professional service...I have referred friends and family to them because I have taken my older high milage Acura there many times and received outstanding service for a reasonable price
Don't GO HERE AT ALL!! – Garbage!!!
Once again another mechanic in Orlando that has staged reviews. Any place with a perfect review portfolio watch out for. This place was suppose to replace a part on my Ford Explorer, which was most likely the shift solenoid. When diagnosed they finally replaced the computer sensor or so I was told. I ask the guy if the sensor could be just restarted. He stated NO! Now, paying for a brand new sensor of about almost 300 bucks and having it been replaced or so I was told I was on my way. The reason he stated was that the sensor gets "burned out" from all the heat in Orlando and it was a common problem here in Orlando. I being the dumb*ss schmuck believed this line. On my way I went. Only a few weeks later, while it was still not shifting right and now since the monitor was not working and reset, there was NO Check Engine light AT ALL now on my vehicle and no automatic shutoff. So, driving along on Colonial, it starts shifting wrong and lazily, then almost clunking, I manage to get it back to my driveway and notice a leak underneath it now. So, that part that was suppose to be replaced NEVER got replaced, and now I have NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT at all on my vehicle, so I have NO WARNING about when something might give out. So, if something goes wrong on my vehicle, since they only reset the whole thing without solving the main problem I can be KILLED without even knowing it. This practice of ONLY resetting the monitor is HIGHLY ILLEGAL and if this is the practice of this place in Orlando, it should not be in business AT ALL!! Another thing he said was: "Ford Explorers are tricky", well if they are that tricky then let me take it to a place that knows what they are doing. You should be reported to the BBB to say the least.
Professional, Reliable, Great Staff and Owners! – Joe, Dwayne, and the crew are the best. They fixed a fuel pressure issue on my wife's 2005 Mazda MPV that two other mechanics had failed to fix (and those failed attempts were at a great expense to me). When Joe found the real culprit, it was a faulty valve and cost me about $100.
They have done extensive work on my 1995 Civic as well...they know Honda and Acura like the back of their hand, and have bent over backwards to help me self repairs when I get in a pinch.
In short, their prices are very fair, and their expertise, professionalism, and customer service are top-notch. While in the shop, I've seen them work in plenty of last-minute repairs for customers at the end of the day, just to get people back on the road.
I won't be going anywhere else from now on.
Fair Prices | Good Guys | Goodbye Stealership – I brought my vehicle in for a timing belt, water pump and front motor mount replacement. Their prices are excellent, they use OEM parts and above all great customer service! They did an excellent job replacing the for mentioned parts, but I had an issue with my air cleaner cover.
Joe contacted me immediately regarding the situation. He was cordial, professional and was willing to meet me at the shop during off hours to rectify the issue. I was reimbursed for the price of the air cleaner cover and has made me a very happy customer. Excellent work on a tough job!
Thank you, I appreciate your business and input!
Great Service, Great Guys! – Hey, I had a problem with my transmission and had my car towed to this shop bc the reviews were so good. I spoke with Joe on many occassions about the car and what was wrong. Joe was very helpful and straight to the point, but he wasn't cold. He understood my finacial situation and did his best to make sure that I was taken care of and that I was getting quality service. He and his staff went above and beyond the requested service and saved me money. I feel good about dealing with this shop and definately will return and have no problems recommending others. Thanks again Joe!!
Thank you for the kind words, your situation was definitely a tough one with the surprises your car threw at us! I am pleased with the way your car turned out and I am even happier that you are happy with us, thank you for your business! Joe
Great Service! – I wanted to find a mechanic shop I could trust with my out of warranty car. Dwayne and company are always right there ready to solve the problem without excessive fees or adding any unneeded work. They give me my car in record breaking time and their work dependable. Their rates are always reasonable and they will use OEM parts when requested. They are great at troubleshooting, too! I highly recommend this repair shop.
Honesty, Integrity, Professionalism – My son and I drove his Mazda from Dumfries, Virginia. Before we left we did everything we needed to do with the vehicle: changed oil, replaced tires, checked it out bumper to bumper... Everything went smoothly. We got to Orlando and I noticed a not frequent but a strange noise coming from the engine... I said "shoot, what can this be?" A friend of my son said, "it could be the timing belt". Once again, "shoot". Well, to make a long story short. I was already back in Virginia when my son called me from Orlando. "Dad the noise became too frequent and louder". "Holly shoot"!. I started looking for mechanics reviews in Orlando and had the fortune of finding this guys. Joe & Dwayne treated my son very well. Still we were afraid the problem was serious and we're ready to get hit hard basically because we had no idea what was wrong. My son dropped off the car. Soon after that Joe called to tell him: "Don't worry about it. It was just a belt that needed some tightening". My son was relieved and I was even more relieved. So my son told Joe "I don't have a ride now, so can I go pick it up tomorrow?" Joe said "no problem". The next day my son went to pick the car up. Dwayne handed him the keys. My son asked "how much do I owe you, guys", Dwayne responded "you're good. No problem. Drive safe". So the guys diagnosed the problem. Fixed it. Kept the car overnight and the charge was? $ Zero!!!
Finding honest mechanics in this day and age is as impossibly difficult as finding honest attorneys... Please!!! So if you live or are visiting the Orlando area and experiment a mechanic problem with your vehicle, please DO NOT HESITATE FOR ONE SECOND... Drive safe and take you car immediately to this guys. You won't regret it. This are best professional mechanics in the Orlando Metro Area!!! Nice guys and on top of that honest and kind.
Top grade, affordable auto service – I recently damaged my front tire, rim, a knuckle, and axle brace. Several of my friends told me it would cost hundreds in parts alone from my dealer, and labor on top... I'm on a budget, mind you, and I don't exactly keep an extra two grand "on the side" for this kind of stuff. So I went online and searched for shops in my area, and thank God I found Orlando Import Auto Specialists!
They helped me calm down about the whole situation. They offered price options for used parts and new parts, and waived fees for some extra work beyond major repair. They told me what's a "must have", "good to have", and "not immediately needed". It's so refreshing to find a shop that is not going after as much money as they can get. I received daily updates on the phone until my car was completely done 3 days later (which would be at least a week at my dealer).
To make it all better, they honored a Citysearch coupon that applies to my repairs and made it even cheaper!
I can confidently say that I am this shop's newest regular! I highly recommend their service to all my friends.
Amazing Customer Service – These guys are the best. After a minor fender bender in a parking garage, I found myself facing a major repair, as a few key components on my axle were beyond salvaging. Since my dealership had charged me through the nose for so many other repairs, I followed a recommendation and took my car to Orlando Auto Imports. I was not disappointed. They went out of their way to give me the most affordable fix possible, without cutting any corners. They even rounded down the final total to an even number, saving me an additional $30 off an already discounted price. I would recommend these guys to anyone. They truly care about their customers, and put out quality work. Definitely worth the drive from anywhere in Orlando.

I absolutely LOVE the Fever series. I read all three in a week. I couldn't put them down. I think I might go insane before August.

OURAY – Although the Colorado Association of School Boards is urging school districts across the state to issue resolutions in support of Amendment 66, proposed legislation appearing on November's ballot that seeks to radically restructure the way public education is funded in Colorado, the Ouray School Board agreed at its most recent meeting not to take an official stance on the legislation.
Amendment 66 seeks to repair education funding formulas for Colorado, which ranks among the lowest states in the nation when it comes to the amount of state funds spent per pupil on K-12 public education. The legislation proposes amending the Colorado Constitution and the Colorado Statutes to change how the state funds public preschool through twelfth grade education by raising taxes to increase the amount of money available, changing how the state distributes funding to school districts and requiring a fixed percentage of revenue from certain taxes be set aside annually for schools.
In all, the proposed legislation would bring in close to $1 billion in new revenues for public education in Colorado. Superintendent Scott Pankow said, however, that the Ouray School District would actually experience a net loss of $14,000 in revenues if Amendment 66 passes,ultimately compelling the community to approve a higher mil levy to support the school district to keep funding at current levels.
"The board believes it would be hard to support anything where the taxes of our local support base would go up, yet we wouldn't see any benefit for our district," Pankow said.
Pankow added that the legislation has plenty of positive aspects. "Some of the good things that I like are the support for preschool and kindergarten," he noted.
But, he and other Ouray School Board members agreed, the proposed legislation is so complex, with has so many moving targets, that "the unknown pieces of this make you pause," Pankow said.
"We are not against it, but would like to have some more clarity. What public schools need is some certainty around finance, not just formulas."
Board President Mike Fedel agreed, saying that after spending hours reading the bill that led to the proposed amendment, and studying the effects it would have on the Ouray School District, he emerged more mystified than ever. "When there is a quadratic equation in a bill, there may be a problem," he wryly noted. "There is mass confusion out there. This is a very complex bill."

The shirts are green with gold writing. In other words, they look a lot like similar shirts Notre Dame fans wore a year ago.
It's unfair to slam the two Oregon students for selling these shirts, as one of the Ducks' players, Derrick Malone Jr., apparently did on Twitter, calling the idea, "Dumbest thing I've EVER seen."
Hey, if they're making money, good for the students. The shirts are harmless enough, and it's good to see students figure out a way to turn Oregon's football success to their advantage.
But as for the people who buy those shirts and sincerely believe the message, keep in mind that it's not good to focus on one particular opponent.
You still have UCLA, Stanford, Oregon State and a possible Pac-12 Championship Game. And we've seen before that as the season goes on, your Oregon team doesn't look so fast and mighty in your spread offense.
What's the old saying? Speed gets tired, but muscle doesn't shrink.
Besides, who's to say Alabama will get there? What if LSU wins out? What if the ACC, Big Ten or Big 12 champ is undefeated and nobody from the SEC is?
Maybe Oregon should worry about getting out of the regular season and the Pac-12 Championship Game alive. Then you can worry about who's in the BCS National Championship Game.

131 Cheapside, Lexington, KY | Directions 4050738.048237 -84.497967
Mon-Thu 11:30am-2:30am, Fri 11am-2:30am, Sat 11am-2:30am, Sun 11am-11pm
I have come here with family and as excellent beginning point or stop along the night and will continue to do so!!!
My husband and I stopped in Cheapside Bar and Grill recently and had a great experience. It was very crowded, so we had to wait for a table. The service was very good, even though the food took a little while to come out (our server told us that the kitchen was a little backed up--which was understandable given the crowd).
I've spent many a birthdays, happy hours, lunches there, it's a really great spot.
I'm a fan of the buffalo zinger (chicken fingers) and the bbq chicken pizza.
They also do have live music some nights... so there's always something going on at this place.
Nothing better than sitting on the patio upstairs, under the umbrella, while the rain falls. Best outdoor dining experience in Lexington.
Very happy with this place. I was visiting for a conference and tried this place because of the nice Oasis outdoor seating area. Very good choice. The drink selection was solid and at a reasonable price, for beer and burbons anyways.
Meh... – Food: Decent...
Drinks: Decent...
Upstairs patio/deck: Pretty awesome...
Service: Decent...
Drink prices:... Decent...
Nothing impressive at all really but it's a good place to get smashed and not care about acting a fool I guess.
I go because it's convenient but I don't normally stay long.
Cheapside Bar & Grill (131 Cheapside) is a downtown Lexington bar and restaurant. It's more relaxed and quiet than some of the neighboring bar & grills. It's an attractive, expansive place inside. The food, drink, and service qualities are reasonable. Pricing is sensible and the staffers are friendly. Cheapside noise and crowding doesn't go to extremes. There is an elevated outdoor deck that offers a view of part of downtown. The average crowd is a little older than what you find at other nearby bar & grills. Drinking hours are Monday through Friday, 11:30 am to 2:30 am, and Saturday - Sunday 11 am to 2:30 am.
Great Place to Catch Live Music! – I've read the other reviews, and obviously they should be going to applebees or fridays. There they'll find all of the consumerist comforts Wal-mart has taught them to expect. Cheapside is an excellent establishment. They bring in some of the greatest bands in town, and they're drinks are great. Space is a bit limited, but that problem is quickly solved in warmer weather. They have heaters on the patio, and unless your a comlete prince or princess you should be plenty comfortable during most of the year. They use real seasoning in their food so there's actual flavor. Which sets it leaps above other "more-easily-accessible" establishments. Cheapside is a great place. Its my personal preference, if I'm looking for tunage on most any night of the week. I say if you're a music lover give it a chance. You won't be dissapointed.
Not for Kids! – My husband and I went there with a group of friends and a couple of kids. The place wasn't set up for large parties nor children. The drinks sucked and the food wasn't spectacular. My time and money would have been better spent at Applebees!
This is THE place to be! – Cheapsides is THE place to see and be seen in Lexington! The bar inside offers a cozy atmosphere and the bands are terrific. And when the band begins a-rockin'- (especially August Christopher!) - get ready to party! Or you can choose to dine in the glass-enclosed restaurant or head outside to the two bars located on the patio or the balcony - which overlooks the Cheapside crowd and city. There is so much to offer in downtown Lexington - and Cheapsides is a perfect spot to either begin or finish a night on the town.

Why Good Bands Get Worse as They Age
By Ian S. Port
City living creates a tendency to shove the music you like into competitions with other attention hogs. When you're just one of a million maggots, hooks that compete with skyscraper cranes and choruses slick as makeup counters can mentally transport you away from the congestion. One iPod click generates beats overriding jackhammers, while the next soundtracks the Muni commute toward the paycheck slavery.
But for every giant anthem there's a batch of slow tunneling tracks that force the rush-hour mentality to bead away even if they're impossible to appreciate pitted against industrial aggressors. Greg Ashley's music doesn't work wedged between BART stops. It won't capture your imagination penciled into a coffee break. It demands your full attention.
Good listeners clock serious time with Ashley's songs. It's not that he makes highfalutin extractions you need a degree in symphonies to translate. The Oakland artist's solo records like Medicine Fuck Dreamand the new Painted Garden are just really delicate in their intricacies, like flea market finds that you wrap in tissue before taking home. The songs sound artfully weathered, edges yellowed the minute they hit headphones. But Ashley's music also ages in reverse, antique in its methodology but young and almost playful at the core. Cue the giggling, tickled girl opening Medicine Fuck Dream, or Ashley's techniques of embracing mishaps a cough in this song, a stuttered track shift on that one while his lyrics take artificiality to task, all marks of a musician short on years and long in soul.
"Greg Ashley is a true psychedelic visionary, maybe the greatest of his generation," Adam Shore of Vice Records writes in an e-mail. "His music is not retro and it doesn't pay homage to music of the past. It lives in this timeless place in a space of his own." Shore doesn't have a professional connection to Ashley who records for local label Birdman Records but he's a big fan nonetheless, as are members of the Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Trail of Dead, and Wayne Coyne of the Flaming Lips, according to Birdman owner Dave Katznelson. Katznelson adds of Ashley, "He has a way of changing the molecules in the air when he plays, something that others have done before but is still a rare occurrence. He is not only a great artist, but a great artist playing through a world of fuzz and beauty that I love."
Although his fans have their hopes, Ashley, aged 26 and a chain Camel Lights smoker, isn't poised to become famous anytime soon. His full band, psych rock outfit Gris Gris, was hand-picked to open for Karen O and company two shows in Los Angeles last year but that's probably his highest claim to fame in a decade of songwriting. Still, his grip on fans only firms with time. And with the release of Painted Garden, Ashley proves that in an era of greedy, speedy sonic consumption, his slow-building albums offer a rewarding transcendence outta this metropolis.
To get to the ex-Texan's Oakland studios, you walk past the boxing gloves hanging from a tree branch and take a right at the kitchen appliances nestled into the weeds. Go down the hallway of a two-bedroom apartment and dead-end at his temporary setup (noise complaints from the neighbors have left his renting situation slightly precarious). Although this is technically Ashley's bedroom, these quarters the size of a modest Public Storage unit are as overtaken by recording tools as his yard is with grass. Chords strangle a ceiling fan, stacks of album masters (for his solo work and with the Gris Gris and the Mirrors, as well as for the artists he's recorded Brian Glaze, Killer's Kiss, Battleship) are welded into a closet shelf. Elsewhere, analog artifacts jostle for space with stacks of blank CDs, and a Story & Clark piano stands burdened with random loads of technical knickknacks.
The Queer Eyecontingent would have a field day with this bachelor pad. Ashley's aesthetic is firmly set in "aftermath" mode, the only sign that he uses these digs beyond the creation and recording of music being a browbeaten couch/bed of the sort that usually dies on curbsides, its olive pillows covered in white sheets. But you don't come to Greg Ashley's place for the feng shui, you come by to record your garage band, you pop in to offer help with that piano melody, you spend a weekend drinking beers and end up weaving into the fabric of his Nuggetssensibilities. Or, in the case of Ashley's forthcoming producing project, you're part of a Birdman comp of local "people who have mellower solo stuff," he says. "Each [artist] comes over for a day and we hang out and record a song together."
Musicians request Ashley's assistance for various reasons. (Birdman solo artist Brian Glaze quips, "I like the fact that he smokes more than I do in the studio, and doesn't mind recording drum tracks on Christmas morning in a studio apartment.") But to the outsider, it's Ashley's spirit of pocket-change invention that cements his mystique. On 2003's Medicine Fuck Dream, he hit lollipops against half-empty bottles of Mad Dog for the percussion on a creaky cover of Hank Williams' "Lost Highway." On Painted Garden, out this week, Ashley's anorexic checking account forced more creative forays. To wit: "Medication #5" needed a cello, but all Ashley had on hand was a violin player. After taking a violin bow to his bass, he recorded the violinist at a low speed while she played her part four times as fast. "When the violin is slowed down, it goes down eight octaves and sounds like a cello," Ashley explains. In other words, it gives off a heavy melancholy befitting a song about rotting sexuality. Elsewhere, bent saw melodies "remind me of an opera singer," Ashley says; "it's high and kinda spooky," while clarinet skronk morphs into guitar feedback. "That's what I really love about doing this shit, you can really geek out," he says. "Like the song with a gong on it there's no way I could afford a real gong, so I bought a shitty $5 one and recorded it at high speed again and then slowed it down so it sounds like a low gong." What would Ashley do with the purse strings for a real gong, an actual cello, a live opera singer? He laughs and answers, "Then I wouldn't have anything to figure out."

Cary >Beauty > Skin Sense A Day Spa
2058 Renaissance Park Pl, Cary, NC | Directions 2751335.826919 -78.771779
Mon-Tue Closed,Wed-Fri 10:00 AM-9:00 PM,Sat 9:00 AM-7:00 PM,Sun Closed
Neighborhoods: The Arboretum
Poor Customer Service – I went to Skin Sense for a peel and took my friend along as a treat for her. The procedure itself went just fine. I had had several peels before at other places but this one was supposed to be THE BOMB. So I was willing to pay $125. However, four days after the peel... nothing was happening... no dry skin, no peel...nothing. I called them back.. they said to wait 10 days and call back... nothing happened. Called back was hoping to get another peel or at least a discount on a different procedure but no such luck. I will not return. The very least they could have done was to offer a discount on another procedure...
nice! – Thank you so much! I love coming here! Keep up the great work! You guys always take all of my stress away.
Best Experience – This is a great day spa. I have always had the best experiences here and I am always recommending them to friends.
Good Day – Everyone was really nice and the place was beautiful as well. I really had a very enjoyable experience here at Skin Sense.
Facial & Eye Treatment – After a wonderful facial and eye treatment, I spent a bit in the lounge and enjoyed a hot cup of tea. This was a perfect way to spend the morning.
Make appointment with MK she is the best – This is my third facial with MK, and she is absolutely fabulous. She recommends treatments and products that she thinks will improve my skin, and so far she has been dead on target. My skin is glowing. I have already scheduled my next appointment with her.
Great Atmosphere – I have been a client of Skin Sense, A Day Spa for a few months already I come here about 2 to maybe 4 times a month. I love the atmosphere this place has and all of the amenities they have available for you. I get everything done here from massage to waxing and I like the work they do here.
Fantastic Day of Pampering – My husband gave me a Valentine's present of a day at the spa. He purchased the Valentine package where roses were supposed to be delivered; however, their florist would not deliver to Goldsboro. BUT when I arrived at the spa--they were there for me to enjoy. The entire staff was so nice and truly trying to make my day a pampering a great day. Tom gave me the Head to Toe package and ended with a manicure and pedicure. I even had a delicious lunch at the spa while looking and smelling my roses. What an awesome day!!!! Thanks a million!!!! Guys if you don't know what to give your special lady in your life--this is a great gift--you won't go wrong.
Best experience ever! – I've tried so many different spas around town and am usually disappointed with the treatment. Usually I feel as if I am not getting my moneys worth. Let me tell you I did not feel this way with Skin Sense! They do so many different treatments during the facial and include some massage - it is awesome! Your face is glowing when you leave! I have Elisa do my facials and she rocks! She gives great advice on products too - I have definately noticed a difference in my skin and its only been a couple weeks. I highly recommend this place and Elisa - you won't be disappointed!
over priced – I recently had a facial done in north raleigh. The girl who did the treatment was very nice. But i'm not sure she had all the tools she needed to do the job. Isn't that a priority when you offer these services?.. I think something in the mask had a bad reaction to my skin because my skin is still blotchy and it's been 2 days. I'm so mad at myself for paying that much money to now be afraid to be seen in publc.

We enjoyed our first ripe strawberry of the season this morning. Nothing beats the sweet, sweet deliciousness of an organic, homegrown strawberry. Strawberries are probably the easiest fruit to grow in containers and do very well in hanging baskets, strawberry pots, or window boxes on sunny decks and balconies. I give mine little more than a little sea kelp and vermicompost (worm poo) fertilizer now and again and am sure to keep the soil consistently moist without drying out. The hybrids can take a bit of drought but I try not to push the plants too hard in order to get as much juicy, sweet fruit as possible.
This year I am growing both a pink flowering and a white flowering, everbearing hybrid that will produce two crops of berries, one this month and the second in late-summer/early-fall. Our first strawberry actually came from the canister plant but I missed getting a snap of it in Davin's eagerness to taste. With today's heat and humidity the berry shown in the above image should be ready by this evening!

Walkthrough: Creating a Windows Service Application in the Component Designer
The procedures in this topic demonstrate creating a simple Windows Service application that writes messages to an event log. The basic steps that you perform to create and use your service include the following:
Create a project by using the Windows Service application template. This template creates a class for you that inherits from ServiceBase and writes much of the basic service code, such as the code to start the service.
Write the code for the OnStart and OnStop procedures, and override any other methods that you want to redefine.
Add the necessary installers for your service application.
Build your project.
Install your service on the local machine.
Access the Windows Services Control Manager and start your service.
To begin, you create the project and set values that are required for the service to function correctly.
The Windows Services project template that is required for this walkthrough is not available in the Express edition of Visual Studio.
Your computer might show different names or locations for some of the Visual Studio user interface elements in the following instructions. The Visual Studio edition that you have and the settings that you use determine these elements. For more information, see Customizing Development Settings in Visual Studio.
To create and configure your service
On the File menu, click New Project.
The New Project dialog box opens.
Select Windows Service in the list of Visual Basic or Visual C# project templates, and name the project MyNewService. Click OK.
The project template automatically adds a component class named Service1 that inherits from System.ServiceProcess.ServiceBase.
On the Edit menu, choose Find and Replace, Find In Files (Keyboard: CTRL+SHIFT+F). Change all occurrences of Service1 to MyNewService. There are instances in Service1.cs, Program.cs, and in Service1.Designer.cs.
Click the designer to select MyNewService. Then, in the Properties window, set the ServiceName and the (Name) property for Service1 to MyNewService.
In the next section, you add a custom event log to the Windows service. Event logs are not associated in any way with Windows services. Here the EventLog component is used as an example of the type of component you could add to a Windows service.
To add custom event log functionality to your service
In Solution Explorer, right-click Service1.vb or Service1.cs and select View Designer.
From the Components section of the Toolbox, drag an EventLog component to the designer.
In Solution Explorer, right-click Service1.vb or Service1.cs and select View Code.
Add or edit the constructor to define a custom event log.
To define what occurs when the service starts
In the Code Editor, locate the OnStart method that was automatically overridden when you created the project, and write code to determine what occurs when the service starts running:
A service application is designed to be long running. Therefore, it usually polls or monitors something in the system. The monitoring is set up in the OnStart method. However, OnStart does not actually do the monitoring. The OnStart method must return to the operating system after the service's operation has begun. It must not loop forever or block. To set up a simple polling mechanism, you can use the System.Timers.Timer component. In the OnStart method, you would set parameters on the component, and then you would set the Enabled property to true. The timer would then raise events in your code periodically, at which time your service could do its monitoring.
To define what occurs when the service is stopped
In the Code Editor, select the OnStop procedure from the Method Name drop-down list, which was automatically overridden when you created the project. Write code to determine what occurs when the service is stopped:
You can also override the OnPause, OnContinue, and OnShutdown methods to define additional processing for your component.
To define other actions for the service
For the method that you want to handle, override the appropriate method and define what you want to occur.
The following code shows what it looks like if you override the OnContinue method:
Some custom actions have to occur when a Windows service is installed, which can be done by the Installer class. Visual Studio can create these installers specifically for a Windows service and add them to your project.
To create the installers for your service
In Solution Explorer, right-click Service1.vb or Service1.cs and select View Designer.
Click the background of the designer to select the service itself, instead of any of its contents.
With the designer in focus, right-click, and then click Add Installer.
By default, a component class that contains two installers is added to your project. The component is named ProjectInstaller, and the installers it contains are the installer for your service and the installer for the service's associated process.
In Design view for ProjectInstaller, click ServiceInstaller1 for a Visual Basic project, or serviceInstaller1 for a Visual C# project.
In the Properties window, make sure the ServiceName property is set to MyNewService.
In the designer, click ServiceProcessInstaller1 for a Visual Basic project, or serviceProcessInstaller1 for a Visual C# project. Set the Account property to LocalSystem. This will cause the service to be installed and to run on a local service account.
Security Note
The LocalSystem account has broad permissions, including the ability to write to the event log. Use this account with caution, because it might increase your risk of attacks from malicious software. For other tasks, consider using the LocalService account, which acts as a non-privileged user on the local computer and presents anonymous credentials to any remote server. This example fails if you try to use the LocalService account since it doesn't have permissions to write to the event log.
To build your service project
In Solution Explorer, right-click your project and then click Properties. The project's Property Designer appears.
On the Application page, from the Startup object list, click MyNewService.Program.
Press CTRL+SHIFT+B to build the project.
Now that the you've built the Windows service, you can install it. To install a Windows service, you must have administrative permissions on the computer on which you're installing it.
To install a Windows service
On the Start menu or Start Page, open the shortcut menu for Developer Command Prompt, and then choose Run As Administrator.
Navigate to the folder that contains your project's output. For example, under your My Documents folder, navigate to Visual Studio 2013\Projects\MyNewService\bin\Debug.
Enter the following command:
installutil.exe MyNewService.exe
If the service installs successfully, installutil.exe will report success.
To start and stop your service
To open the Services Control Manager in Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows Server, right-click Computer on the Start menu, and then click Manage. In the Computer Management console, expand the Services and Applications node in the left pane. Click Services.
You should now see MyNewService listed in the Services section of the window.
Select your service in the list, right-click it, and then click Start.
Right-click the service, and then click Stop.
To verify the event log output of your service
Open Server Explorer (Keyboard: CTRL+ALT+S) and access the Event Logs node for the local computer.
Locate the listing for MyNewLog and expand it. You should see entries for the actions your service has performed.
To uninstall your service
On the Start menu or Start Page, open the shortcut menu for Developer Command Prompt, and then choose Run As Administrator.
Navigate to the folder that contains your project's output. For example, under your My Documents folder, navigate to Visual Studio 2013\Projects\MyNewService\bin\Debug
Enter the following command:
installutil.exe /u MyNewService.exe
If the service uninstalls successfully, installutil.exe will report that your service was successfully removed.
You can create a standalone setup with which others can install your Windows service, but you must perform additional steps. ClickOnce doesn't support Windows services, so you can't use the Publish Wizard. You can use a full edition of InstallShield, which Microsoft doesn't provide. For more information about InstallShield, seeInstallShield Limited Edition. You can also use Windows Installer XML to create an installer for a Windows Service. For more information, see Windows Installer XML Toolset.
You might explore the use of a ServiceController component to enable you to send commands to the service you have installed.
You can use an installer to create an event log when the application is installed instead of creating the event log when the application runs. Additionally, the event log will be deleted by the installer when the application is uninstalled.

I worked at IKEA full-time for more than 8 years
Pros – Benefits, PTO, employee discount, don't have to buy work clothes. If there is good store management the place can be fun to work at. If not, it is a living nightmare.
Cons – Steering group and corporate office that has no clue as to what goes on in the store. They manage from a desk and will always be in meetings. They create work groups just to be in more meetings and avoid the co-workers and managers.
Advice to Senior Management – Stop sitting at your desk or in meetings and see what is going on in the store.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend

FITT Initiative Receives $1 Million Gift
Monday, September 10, 2007
For the past three years the "Our Valpo" initiative has sought support for capital projects across the Valparaiso University campus. Part of this campaign has been the FITT (Football, Intramurals, Tennis, Track) initiative with a goal of constructing a new synthetic football field/tack complex and a new outdoor tennis court complex.
As a part of the FITT initiative a donor has stepped forward with a $1 million gift. The gift has been given anonymously. This is the largest single gift ever received by the Athletics Department.
"This is a very exciting development for both Athletics and Recreational Sports," said Valparaiso University director of athletics Mark LaBarbera. "It is a great encouragement to all of our coaches and student-athletes to have people show this type of commitment to our programs."
"An upgraded game and practice facility is a critical next step in our goal of winning the Pioneer Football championship again," added head football coach Stacy Adams. "It is great to be so much closer to have this project completed."
The football field/track complex when completed will included a new eight-lane polyurethane running track, a synthetic turf football field, lighting for the track and football field, and a new scoreboard. The tennis complex has been completed and was dedicated in the fall of 2006.
"Having a track will help attract more quality recruits," said track and field coach Ryan Moore. "It will really allow our athletes to train and compete at a place they can call home."

Oh, My Aching Back! A Disney Park Guide for Bad Backs
I'm lucky that I only suffer from occasional back pain, but I still have to be careful on some of the attractions at Walt Disney World. Here is a park-by-park list of rides I avoid if my back is acting up.
Magic Kingdom
Space Mountain
Cramming myself into the small seat is one thing, but not knowing when to expect the next twist and turn since it's in complete darkness makes Space Mountain a killer for bad backs.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad
The rickety ol' tracks can strain a rickety ol' back. Riding with someone in your row makes this one tolerable though; you won't slide around as much.
Tomorrowland Speedway
It looks so mild, but these mini race cars can be pretty rough on the backside.
Mad Tea Party
Yes, I'm the one who usually insists on spinning our tea cup as fast as possible, so I guess I'm to blame for this one being on the list.
Test Track
It usually doesn't bother me, but I can see how the beginning part of Test Track with all the stopping, starting and turning could aggravate an aching back.
O Canada!
This is an amazing film in World Showcase, but standing in one position for 14 minutes puts a lot of pressure on my lower back.
Impressions de France
Think O Canada!, but four minutes longer.
Disney's Hollywood Studios
Rock 'n' Roller Coaster
It's smoother than Space Mountain or Big Thunder Mountain Railroad, but the inversions and not being able to brace for twists and turns (due to complete darkness) secure Rock 'n' Roller Coaster's spot on the list.
Toy Story Mania!
It's not the actual ride part of the attraction (though I can see how the sudden shifts of the ride vehicles to the next game might aggravate bad backs) it's that darn line. Even on a good day, you'll still have to stand in line for an hour.
Bench Seating at Shows
Oh, how I wish the benches were padded for Beauty and the Beast – Live on Stage, Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular! and Lights, Motors, Action! Extreme Stunt Show.
Disney's Animal Kingdom
Kilimanjaro Safaris
Kilimanjaro Safaris doesn't bother me as long as I ride toward the front of the jeep. The back seats offer a much bumpier ride.
Expedition Everest
It's an awesome coaster and smooth by most standards, but as with any thrill ride it's best to use caution.
This one gets me every time. The hydraulic lifting that occurs as the ride vehicle moves along the track can really inflame an aching back.
Primeval Whirl
What is the word for a slight case of whiplash?
Tips for Theme Park-Goers with Bad Backs…
1. Watch POV ride videos on Undercover Tourist's YouTube channel before your trip. You'll have a better idea of what's in store.
2. Heed the warning signs! If the sign outside the attraction says "Must be free from neck or back problems" there's probably a good reason.
3. Take frequent breaks to rest and stretch.
4. Rent an Electronic Convenience Vehicle (ECV).
Happy (& Healthy) Traveling!

I'm really tired and pissed.
This is my third iPhone (2 of the old ones, 1 3G) so i think I'm entitled to a little rant.
I really hate apple. They are a bunch of incosiderate arses who only cares about selling their goods, just as the ones the love to hate, M$.
Let me give you some detail about my anger:
I bought my 3G on august 22, the same day they started to sell them in my country, Argentina.
The next day I realized the mute button was stuck, so I went to change it, as it was obviously a manufacturing defect (instant replacement, right?). They told me (my mobile provider, as there is no apple store or apple direct representative in Argentina) that they had to run the problem by Apple USA. It's been three weeks, and still no answer.
Also, since 1.1.2 (when apple changed the number matching algorithm for a much complex one) or so the phone doesn't match the numbers of the sms with the ones on the phonebook. I expected that the problem will be fixed when they started selling the iPhone legally in my country.
I was obviously wrong.
We are in 2.1 now, and the sucker still doesn't match the numbers, but with a legally-bought-phone plus: now, also, doesn't match the numbers on the visual voicemail.
Really, is it too much to ask from a phone to match the numbers on the incoming calls with the ones on the phonebook? I think not...
And I was pissed with SonyEricsson about the lousy joystics... Oh, the irony!
But don't get me wrong: I LOVE the iPhone. Since the first day.
It's been a great work tool and a very fun gadget. And I wouldn't be complaining if that were the thing that weren't working... but the number matching? GIVE ME A BREAK!!!
And please, I know I can jailbreak it (as I did with 2.0.2 and all the versions before) and fix the matching, but is not as simple in v2 and up and Timschuerewegen seems not to have the time (or will) to make it all over again as the 1 click solution he worked up for 1.1.4 (for which I will be eternally gratefull).
Also, with all the patching solutions I tried on 2.0.2, the numbers on the visual voicemail still wasn't being matched.
Maybe Apple should change their motto from "It Just Works" to "It's Just Cool", because the working part leaves much to be desired...
Well, flame me if you want, I've emptied my chest.
