The news that Fourth River Development LLC missed a $70,000 payment on the Peach Street condos brought up a lot of opinions — 76 and still counting — on my Facebook page Saturday. Yesterday, Kim Green, the Redevelopment Authority executive director, announced one condo is sold, and the developers showed up to promise payment. All good news….
In 20 years of writing for House to Home, I don't think I've seen so many nice condos and patio homes on the market at one time until now. The picture is of one of my favorites behind Erie Day School, but there are some for every price range and plenty are open tomorrow for…

Re: Does FICO factor "Current Status" on closed accounts?
I presume the account is currently reporting a zero balance. Is the date reported the same date as the 120 late date. IE the account was reported in 4/2012 with a zero balance and the 120 late is 4/2012. If so either talk to the lender to correct it or dispute it. You cannnot owe zero and be 120 days late at the same time.it is not possible.

How do you define "wealthy"?
Wealth is self-defined by people who participate in our programs. The amount of wealth people have access to, or expect to have access to in the future, varies greatly. Wealth comes from many sources including inheritances and earnings. Some people who are involved have access to philanthropic resources (as board members of family foundations for example), but do not have access to personal wealth. Generally, everyone involved feels that they have or will have access to more resources than they need. For a more numerical guideline of wealth, U.S. households at the 95th percentile have incomes around $148,000 and net wealth, including home equity, above $1.3 million.
For an infographic about wealth distribution in the United States, click here.
For an infographic about income inequality in the United States and abroad, click here.
How do you define "young"?
Resource Generation members are between the ages of 18 and 35, though participants in our family philanthropy program can be up to 40.
Is Resource Generation a national organization?
Yes! The majority of Resource Generation's staff is based in New York City and the Bay Area. We have countless member-leaders, volunteers, organizational partners and skilled facilitators who help carry out our programs nationwide.
We currently have local chapters in the Bay Area; Stanford University; Los Angeles; Seattle; Minneapolis/St. Paul; Chicago; Denver/Boulder; Philadelphia; Durham/Raleigh; Washington D.C.; New York City; Western MA; Burlington area/VT; Atlanta; and Boston. We have emerging chapters in Portland, OR and New Orleans.
I am in a cross-class relationship with a young person with wealth. Is RG for me too?
Absolutely! We welcome partners of young people with wealth from poor-, working- and middle-class backgrounds at all RG programs and events. While our specific programming for partners is new, it is steadily growing with an email list, resources for cross-class relationships, a partner praxis group in New York, and awesome small groups ("pods") at all of our retreats. Please contact Kirin for more information about partners at RG!
How is Resource Generation funded?
Resource Generation is funded primarily by individuals. We also receive foundation support, program fees and publication revenue.
What does "confidential" or "non-solicitation" space mean?
RG plays a unique role in engaging young people with wealth committed to social change. Confidentiality and non-solicitation have proven critical in supporting people as they begin to explore their relationship to money, class and privilege. This means:
- Attendance at an RG event is confidential
- There is no fundraising or solicitation between members or anyone else at RG events, except in clearly defined, opt-in "solicitation spaces"
- Resource Generation does not share its mailing list.
- Resource Generation as an entity is always an exception to the solicitation policy. In RG spaces, RG will solicit dues-paying membership in order to build our base and movement. If you have questions, please contact our Director of Development, Colette Henderson
RG strives to create a community of people that are open about their wealth with people in their lives, use their position of privilege to speak out for societal change and bring their whole selves to all the work they are involved in.
A new draft and more detailed explanation of our non-solicitation policy is here.
Does Resource Generation give grants?
Resource Generation is not a foundation and does not give grants or connect donors to organizations. We focus on education and skill-building for young people with wealth, who are then better prepared to offer their skills to social change work.
I am fundraising for an organization—how can Resource Generation help me?
Due to our limited staff capacity, we are unable to meet one-on-one with organizations or individuals looking for funding or fundraising advice. Click here for a list of fundraising resources.
I want to get involved, but I'm not wealthy…
Our programming is primarily geared towards young people with wealth. The RG community, however, includes people from all class backgrounds who are involved as trainers, partners, board members and members. We are currently expanding our membership program, which is open to all people regardless of class background. Please email our Director of Development Colette Henderson to learn more about membership opportunities.

This light works pretty well. The single LED is bright enough to light up an entryway, and the motion sensor works over a surprisingly wide angle. I had some problems with it initially when it stayed on and wouldn't turn off, but after removing the batteries and trying again, it seems to be working fine. I tried mounting it above the landing that is halfway between the first and second floor of my house, where the stairs turn 180 degrees. The light works whether I'm at the bottom of the stairs going up, or at the top of the stairs heading down, even though I am above the level of the light at that time. However, it does not have any adjustments for how long the light stays on or for the level of brightness. There are no visible controls on it at all, and none described in the short instruction sheet that came with it. The only adjustments are mechanical ones for positioning the light.
Overall I liked this light, especially for the amount of light it puts out and the wide area of light. The biggest problem with it although, is how sensitive it is. Cannot be placed within about 30-40 feet of any tree, bush, plant with leaves, etc. on a windy night because it will sense the motion from any leaf blowing in the wind, and stay on most of the night, running the batteries down fast. I would say this light is best placed only in a wide open area with no plant/tree growth nearby, or the least little thing that would move in the wind, or it will be coming on all the time. I have a solar-powered, motion-activated light outside also, which was situated about 10 feet from a small bush, and it does not go on when the bush blows - I tried placing this GE light well to the side of it, and everytime the wind blows a little and the leaves of the bush move the light comes on. It would be a great light if it was less sensitive.
I was very surprised at the quality of this little light. It is small enough to be discrete, and yet, the light output is enormous. For an inexpensive little light, it meets the expectations of a large, expensive light. It is not solar powered; however, you can adjust the length of time that the light stays on and it does not come on during the day. Easy to install and adjusts easily. DON'T FORGET THE BATTERIES! I would highly recommend this light for anyone needing just a little extra protection.
I like this light so much that I have purchased 6 and intend to purchase at least 4 more. They detect motion at a good range and give off a good amount of llight using only batteries, which makes them very easy to install. I find that the batteries last a long time, or has in the first ones which I purchased about 2 yrs ago. I especially like the fact that they are battery operated which makes them easy to install in areas where electricity is not available. I would definitely recommend this product.
OK, well I am not a babe in the woods when it comes to electronics or security items like trail cameras used mostly for hunting, or PIR sensing devices in general -- but this thing is amazing! Even my best Moultrie Flash Trail Cameras can't beat the GE LED Motion Sensing light for sensitivity -- and I have never seen it false. If it lights up something is likely out there. Granted; its late Fall and few insects [moths] are out there to trigger it, but ill have to wait till Summer, if it lasts that long in the harsh Texas climate, to test that. I bought this device mainly to cover a tree where I had an security flash cam vandalized then stolen a few days ago. My yard tests so far are very positive -- I mean you can not sneak up on this thing -- it picks up your heat sig even from 8' behind it! I think it must see your heat reflection from objects way in front of it. In my tests it always detects a person about 40' directly in front of it. I haven't tested it for vehicle sensing yet -- often IMO that's not as good. For $20 you can't beat it though -- hardware almost as good as you would find on a Q-Star high dollar security camera, costing almost 3 grand or the latest 3D Wildgame Trail hunting cameras. BTW: Whomever did this WM review programming is very talented :)
Mounted one on a tree so my wife would not worry about stepping on a snake. The other one is mounted above the front door, so I can see to put the key in the lock, when I forget to leave the porch light on. Three D batteris should last a long time (10 months so far) with the one LED (which puts out an ample amount of light). Same price as Amazon.
Excellent product, GE wireless motion sensing LED Spotlight does what it is supposed to do. Bought a year ago, delighted, want to by another one for the basement stairs for safety. Am very picky, don't like to write a review unless its really trouble free. Still use the same battery.
Easy to install, good light for what I need. The sensitivity is amazing and turns on with every car that passes by the driveway
Your page says it has brightness adjustments, but it does not. Its not even in the instructions provided. So where do you get that it has a brightness adjustment. Your page says you can adjust the light on cycle but that is not true. No adjustments anywhere and not in the instructions. I bought 4 of these based on your advertising on your page. Thanks Walmart. Here is a copy and paste from walmart.com. "For your convenience you can adjust the automatic shut-off time at either 30 seconds or 2 minutes. You can even adjust the level of brightness; 'bright' for maximum light output and 'dim' for maximum battery life. "
After approx 1 year it stopped working. I thought it was the batteries but it just stopped working. The battery compartment is rusted and corroded.
Works pretty good.

New York Still Allowed to Enforce Its Own Gun Laws
A controversial concealed-gun law has been defeated in the senate.
A controversial gun measure that the Times called "radical" and was opposed by Mayor Bloomberg and both New York senators has been defeated in the senate. The legislation would have allowed anyone with a concealed-gun license in one state to carry his or her firearms into any other state that granted concealed-gun licenses even if that state, like New York, may have more stringent restrictions on concealed weapons. Interesting how quickly support for states' rights vanishes when it's not convenient. [HuffPo]

The Amarillo Gorillas are a sportswriter's worst nightmare.
With the evolution of the media into an endless, constant stream of updates and information, sportswriters are constantly looking for new angles, fresh stories.
The Gorillas just don't appear to understand that. If they do, they just don't want to cooperate.
Friday night's come-from behind 5-4 overtime road win against defending Central Hockey League champ Colorado and Sunday night's 4-2 home win against Southwest Division-leading Odessa made it official: It's the same-old, same-old from the Gorillas.
It's almost to the point of ridiculousness.
It doesn't matter who head coach Joe Ferras has on the roster to open the season. It doesn't matter what transactions he makes or when he makes them. It doesn't matter what kind of personality his team takes on.
It's always the same result: His teams start the season slowly, then catch fire and charge into the playoffs.
In 2002-03, it was an up-and-down 8-8 start, with four of those wins coming via shootout. The team went 13-6-2 in December and January on its way to a 39-23-2 record. The team finished a point behind Oklahoma City in the Northwest Division and captured its first playoff berth.
In 2003-04, it didn't take quite as long to find the bearings, but the team did start the season 1-4-0 before an 11-game win streak in November ultimately led to a 37-24-3 record, a second-place finish in the Southwest Division and a second consecutive playoff appearance.
In 2004-05, it was a dreadful 4-8-2 start during which the offense was almost nonexistent. A five-game win streak in December and a six-game win streak in January propelled the team to a 31-20-9 record, a second-place finish in the Southwest and a third consecutive playoff appearance.
So what do the Gorillas do for an encore in 2005-06?
Amarillo at Lubbock
The Matchup: Amarillo Gorillas at Lubbock Cotton Kings, 7 p.m. today, Lubbock Municipal Coliseum.
Tuning In: KPUR 1440-AM, 6:45 p.m.
Simple. They start the season a CHL-worst 4-10-2, then win seven straight games from Dec. 4-22 and 10 of 13 through Sunday night. They enter tonight's game at Lubbock in second place in the division, one point ahead of the third-place Cotton Kings. They have gone from the worst record in the league to the fourth-best record in the Southern Conference.
By the way, after Sunday's win, the Gorillas are 26-10-3 in January during the past four seasons combined. They have 10 more games scheduled for January, five of which are against division opponents Lubbock and Odessa, which leads the division by 11 points.
Four consecutive years of the same thing firmly establishes a pattern, especially in a league with as much roster turnover as the CHL has. With the pattern firmly established, the only thing left is an explanation for it.
Ferras said he has no clue as to an exact explanation. He said he puts as much stock into the games at the front end of the schedule as he does to those in the middle and at the end. His best guess is that the core group of players he manages to keep in Amarillo season after season needs a little time to shape the attitudes of new players on the roster.
Players such as defensemen Mark DeSantis and Ryan Shannon, centers Dave Rattray and Derek Hahn, goalie Shawn Degagne and winger Scott Wray have been a part of all three playoff teams and understand Ferras' "Keep It Simple, Stupid" system of cycling the puck quickly out of the defensive zone and crashing the net at the other end.
"I think the system is a huge part of it," Ferras said. "The system we use requires a lot of hard work. Everybody is held accountable. One breakdown in the system is going to kill you.
"If we didn't have our core group, it wouldn't work. Players we bring in watch the work ethic of those players and how they've bought into the system, and they're asked to follow suit. The guys who stick around here are the guys who buy in. The guys who get cut or get traded are usually the ones who don't."
While I realize the Gorillas probably aren't going to give me any new angles to write about, I suppose calling them "a sportswriter's worst nightmare," might be a little dramatic. A sportswriter's worst nightmare is to cover a bad team, a noncompetitive team that plays its games with nothing at stake.
With the Gorillas back in the thick of the playoff race, they certainly are not that.

Lady Gaga isn't going to have her day in court after all.
Celebuzz can confirm that the Mother Monster has settled her legal dispute with former assistant and ex-roommate Jennifer O'Neill, who claims the "Applause" singer cheated her out of overtime pay. Their court case has been dismissed.
Lady Gaga is going to court in a lawsuit filed by her former roommate and personal assistant Jennifer O'Neill, who claims the "Applause" singer cheated her out of overtime pay. According to Associated Press, O'Neil will tell her story in front of a jury in November to decide whether Gaga will pay O'Neill $380,000 in unpaid wages plus damages…
Don't mess with Lady Gaga.
In 2011, former assistant Jennifer O'Neill sued the superstar for more than 7,000 hours of unpaid overtime — an amount she believes totals some $393,000.
According to court documents obtained by Celebuzz, Gaga held nothing back during her six-hour deposition, which was given in August 2012.

I converted to miles (I'm American), added pace (my widget only renders in medium), and removed the activity type (I only use runkeeper to track runs).

How low does a football team have to sink while rebuilding? With the way the NFL is set up, parity shouldn't be that hard to attain. After all, Miami, Atlanta, New Orleans, Baltimore, Arizona and Denver have went from terrible to pretty good in the past three years. All the aforementioned teams changed coaches and got immediate results. Why has Cleveland failed? Too many changes at once? Is Eric Mangini building this team through quantity instead of quality? Having depth is nice if they are backing up good players.
Offensively, this is the worst Cleveland team I have ever witnessed in my 48 years as a Browns fan. Nothing else comes close. Defensively, they are not much better. Where would we be without our special teams? Are John Lynch and I the only ones to question why Josh Cribbs is not getting the ball a lot more on offense?
I am at a loss to defend what we are trying to do on offense. I have given Mangini the benefit of doubt that he has a plan. When he says he sees improvement, I wonder where and how. Not at QB. Not at WR. Not at RB. Not in the o-line. Certainly not in the play calling.
Where is our aggressive "Bear Defense" we were promised? When will the tackling improve? When will we have a pass rush? Better yet, do we have any core players on either offense or defense? A lot of questions but so few answers.
Just two short years ago the Browns were 10-6. The talent level on that team couldn't have been that bad. After last year's 4-12 record, I thought we had hit bottom. So far this year, with a record of 1-6, we are still sinking. Where is the light at the end of the tunnel? How patient will owner Randy Lerner remain? Eric Mangini, for your sake and the sake of the entire Cleveland Browns football team, I hope we can see that light pretty soon.

There is a real quest in finding the best clothes on the market that will both suit the taste of the wearer and also the trends in fashion. This means that there are endless searches for the perfect combination and in the end we may finish by buying a set of things that we will only use in the best case for a couple of wears.
But not all the time it happens this way. There needs to be a planning in the way we choose the clothing items and the way we will wear them later. Only in this way we can make our passion a productive one and in this case we will enjoy the fruit of work. This means that we will sure attract all the eyes with our beautiful looking outfit and from there to be a fashion icon for our friends there is only one step.
But we must take into notice that to follow fashion trends in a slavish way can harm us. We must be wise and choose the best things that can be combined with what we already have in our wardrobe. In many cases it will be difficult, but there is no problem if simply we do not fit into this year's trend. The following may bring something that is in our advantage. The only way to work things out is to create our own style with the pieces of garment that we have at reach.

Heavy rain floods Chester roadsStaff Report | July 29,2014CHESTER Local police and firefighters had their hands full and wet Monday when heavy rain flooded several main roads.
Authorities temporarily shut down a section of Route 11 west of the Chester Rod and Gun Club and Route 103 north in the Stone Village area when storm water covered the pavement shortly after 4 p.m.
Firefighters parked one of their trucks in the village to signal problems along the road leading to Andover and Weston.
Heavy rain & runoff is causing problems on Routes 11 and 103 in the Chester area, the Twitter feed for 511VT told motorists. Roads may become blocked in some areas.
By 4:40 p.m., Vermont State Police said Route 103 from Gassetts to the Stone Village was closed because of flash flooding.
A half-hour later, the National Weather Service in Burlington canceled its severe thunderstorm watch for the state but continued its flash flood warning for Windsor County.
The state chapter of the American Red Cross, for its part, was said to have opened a shelter at the local fire station, according to scanner reports.MORE IN This Just InSPRINGFIELD Springfield residents will be asked next month during Market Madness for their...

Gabe Watson, 33, was indicted by an Alabama grand jury on capital murder charges in the death of his wife, Tina Watson. The motive, according to prosecutors, was money.
Watson allegedly drowned his 26-year-old wife of just 11 days during a scuba diving honeymoon trip on the Great Barrier Reef in 2003.
He pleaded guilty to manslaughter in Australia last year and served 18 months in a Queensland state prison for not doing enough to save his wife during the dive. Australian authorities argued that he killed the woman by turning off her air supply and holding her underwater.
He was deported to the United States Friday and is in custody in Los
Angeles without the possibility of bail.
In a brief court appearance today, Superior Court Judge Hilleri G.
Merritt told Watson that there is a governor's warrant for his extradition to Alabama, and Dec. 30 would be the last date for the transfer there.

Florida Prosecutor Moves To Send Marissa Alexander Back To Prison (Updated)
CREDIT: Associated Press
CREDIT: Associated Press
For more than a year, Marissa Alexander sat in a jail cell on a 20-year prison sentence for firing a bullet at the wall during an altercation with her abusive husband. Her case generated national outrage over the perverse outcomes of Stand Your Ground laws (she unsuccessfully invoked the defense) and mandatory minimum sentences (which applied to her case). Alexander was granted a new trial on appeal, and just before Thanksgiving, she was released to her family while she awaits the second round.
But now, prosecutor Angela Corey is trying to send her back to jail even before her trial, alleging she violated parole when she took trips to run errands and transport family members. Alexander's lawyers say every trip was approved by her parole supervisors.
"No justification supports the state's failure to include in its motion to modify and revoke bond the fact that every activity alleged to be a violation of bond had been approved by the agency charged with the responsibility of supervising Marissa Alexander's bond," Alexander's lawyer Bruce Zimet wrote in his response motion. "Obviously, including those omitted facts would expose the frivolity of the state's motion."
Florida State Attorney Angela Corey, who also unsuccessfully prosecuted George Zimmerman, has doggedly defended her prosecution of Alexander even as public opinion turned against her. After an appeals court granted Alexander a new trial because of faulty jury instructions, public figures like Florida Rep. Corrine Brown (D) called for her to drop the case or seek lesser charges that don't carry a 20-year mandatory minimum sentence. Instead, Corey has doubled down, alleging in her motion to revoke Alexander's parole that she "continues to demonstrate her utter disregard for conforming her behavior to the rules of others."
Circuit Judge James Daniel rejected Corey's bid Friday, ruling that Alexander did not violate her parole and secured permission from the sheriff for every trip she took. Daniel said the sheriff, however, had been too lenient in granting Alexander's travel requests.
Gun rights advocates exploited the outrage over Alexander's sentence to propose a bill in Florida that, rather than just reforming the mandatory minimum sentence scheme or addressing the underlying domestic violence concerns, would expand Stand Your Ground immunity to those who fire or brandish a gun in self-defense. The so-called "warning shot" bill advanced Wednesday after it was approved by a Senate committee.

Directional growth in polarised cells
Eukaryotic cells that grow by polarised extension perform specialised, essential functions in vertebrates, plants and fungi. This disparate group of cells, which includes neurons, pollen tubes, root hairs and fungal hyphae, all share a similar function – they extend through their environment in order to make contact with their own specific target. To be successful, they must be able to interpret local signals that tell them which direction to grow (navigate) and they must be able to change their direction of growth if necessary (steer). The environmental signals that help neurons, pollen tubes and fungi to navigate differ greatly but they may share similar steering mechanisms because the cell components that regulate polarised growth are highly conserved. We are using the dimorphic fungus, Candida albicans, as a model organism in which to study how polarised cells navigate and steer. C. albicans displays tropic, or pre-programmed, growth behaviour under certain conditions and we are using these responses to study the molecular links between environmental signalling and the machinery that drives tip re-orientation. We have shown that loss of normal regulation in the hyphal tip correlates with the inability of the fungus to form normal lesions in internal organs during systemic infection. We want to understand which signals within the human body influence how the hyphal tip behaves during disease progression.
Applied Mycology
Fungi are nature's great re-cyclers and can degrade all kinds of organic and inorganic material into the simple building blocks needed for new growth. The downside of this phenomenon for human health is that fungi biodegrade medical plastic devices, causing them to malfunction and need replacing. The upside is that fungi produce a host of bioactive compounds that can be harnessed for medical and industrial use. With collaborators in the Pharmacy and Chemistry Departments at Queen's Belfast and the University of Edinburgh, respectively, we are interested in both combating and exploiting the complexities of fungal growth.

False colour image of thigmotropic growth of C. albicans hyphae on a microfabricated quartz slide with a ridge height of 3.25 ?m. Growing hyphal tips change direction on contact with obstacles in the substratum. Deletion of calcium ion channels, or removal of calcium from the growth medium, reduces the sensitivity of hyphal tips to changes in the substratum.
C. albicans hyphae form 2-dimension sinusoidal curves and 3-dimensional helices when grown on semi-solid medium. Septa are generally located at the apices of alternate curves, suggesting that curve formation is linked to the cell-cycle. The formation of curved hyphae is attenuated in mutant strains where calcium ion channels have been deleted, so normal calcium flux and homeostasis is required for the initiation of this growth behaviour.
Like many tip-growing cells, C. albicans hyphae align towards the cathode in an applied electric field. This effect can be heightened or reduced by the addition or chelation of calcium ions, respectively.

Not Just Any Old Ion: The Role of Ion Fluxes in Cell Polarity Site Determination
BBSRC EastBio 4-year PhD programme, closing date 14th December 2015
For how to apply: https://www.abdn.ac.uk/clsm/graduate/research/eastbio-application-809.php
Supervisors: Dr Alexandra Brand, Dr Andrew Goryachev (Edinburgh) and Professor Peter Swain (Edinburgh)
Project Overview and Aim
The establishment of new growth at the correct cell site is fundamental to all living organisms. Research into this important process has previously focussed on the role of intracellular proteins and overlooked the influence of surrounding ion fluxes. The aim of this project is to understand how these fluxes influence the site of polarity establishment and growth in the fungus, Candida albicans. The approach will be to generate fluorescent reporter proteins with which to map fluxes of protons, calcium and Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) during live-cell imaging of cell polarisation and growth responses in specialised microfluidics chambers.
Background and Objectives
C. albicans is a fungus that causes a variety of infections in humans by forming invasive polarised cells called hyphae, whose ability to respond to directional cues is essential for tissue invasion and disease [1]. Using strains carrying fluorescently-tagged polarity proteins, we showed that polarity complexes change their position in response to external cues such as touch and small electric fields, and that constitutive activation of specific proteins can completely reverse the direction of polarisation [2,3 & unpublished data]. Our hypothesis is that external cues alter local intracellular ion concentrations to influence the positioning of polarity protein activity. To test this hypothesis, the objectives of the project are:
1.Generate new molecular tools, including fluorescent reporter strains for protons and ROS, to be used for the first time in C. albicans.
2.Adapt existing electric field and hyphal contact assays into novel microfluidic formats.
3.Use live-cell imaging and analysis software to quantify changes in polarity protein localisation and ion fluxes during cell polarisation, steering and growth.
Research Training Provided
The student will be based in the world-renowned Aberdeen Fungal Group (~ 80 people) which specialises in the biology of human pathogens, fungal immunology and anti-fungal drug discovery. Basic mycology and cell culture techniques will be learned, along with molecular methods including PCR, cloning, gene synthesis, sequencing and expression analysis. The student will use real-time fluorescence microscopy and analyse imaging outputs using a variety of software packages, with the potential to develop new analysis methods to inform a systems biology approach (Goryachev, Edinburgh). Training in customised microfluidics chamber design and manufacture will be given (Brand, Aberdeen & Swain, Edinburgh). Together, these skills will provide the student with a strong background in the tools and technology required to underpin a range of career choices in the field of eukaryotic cell biology.

What are some of the leading factors that cause a player to be undervalued?
The No. 1 individual trait is always a low points-per-game average. Because we are trained from our earliest childhood basketball experiences to overemphasize scoring's importance, we fantasy basketball enthusiasts are often guilty of prizing one-dimensional players who score and do little else.
But once we get beyond the points bias, we get into team-wide bias -- when an individual player's value is artificially boosted or depressed due to the perception of his given team.
It's simply the laws of dynamics at work. Winning teams deservedly get more attention. Large-market teams get more attention whether they deserve it or not. Hype has an effect, especially at draft time.
That surplus of attention has an effect on players' fantasy fortunes. It's why a Los Angeles Lakers fan has to overpay for a Kobe Bryant or a Pau Gasol. Or a Miami Heat fan has to spend a first-rounder on Dwyane Wade.
Conversely, it's also why players like Anderson Varejao or Brandon Jennings invariably go a round or two lower than they should.
It's obviously early. Three or four games don't constitute much of a sample size. But some smaller-market teams -- and/or teams projected to land in the lottery -- are already starting to shift the market in fantasy.
Let's take a look at a few teams that are shaking things up right out of the gate.
(These stats don't include the Monday night games.)

In previous seasons, the Rockets' chief fantasy issue was depth, as in too much of it. As in too much mid-level, medium-upside talent up and down the roster. So statistical superstar Daryl Morey finally went young in an attempt to improve draft position, gather assets and hoard cap space to make a run at a marquee name or two.
Now with Harden's arrival, the plan is ahead of schedule.
The backcourt is set -- I'd go as far as "ossified"-- with two players on track to average 35-plus minutes per game for the foreseeable future. Asik (foul trouble willing) is locked into a 32-35 MPG role, the question being whether he can offer any offensive production of remote note (the answer so far is no).
Both forward positions offer untapped fantasy opportunity.
Chandler Parsons is getting a bushel of minutes at present, and he's producing. But it wasn't too long ago that Carlos Delfino was one of fantasy's best box-score-stuffing success stories.
Delfino had visa issues in the preseason and didn't really get it going until late October. Parsons-Delfino could devolve into a value-killing timeshare, or it could work out with Delfino filling the type of role Harden performed back in Oklahoma City. Don't scoff; Delfino can back up the two. He has more to offer than 3-pointers, if he can stay healthy.
Power forward could be a gold mine, or regress into four-headed statistical miasma.
With Asik averaging only 5.7 points per game, there's a lot of pressure on the Rockets' power forwards to provide some interior scoring punch. If Patterson falters, the Rockets have multiple youngsters with upside to burn in White, Morris and Jones.
Or the Rockets could always make another trade. They've done it before. As in about 10 days ago.
Phoenix Suns
Heavy Rotation Players:
Goran Dragic, PG: 35.3 MPG, 14.7 PTS, 8.7 AST, 1.7 STL, 1.0 3PM
Marcin Gortat, C: 35.0 MPG, 13.3 PTS, 12.0 REB, 4.0 BLK, .543 FG%
Luis Scola, PF: 31.0 MPG, 17.3 PTS, 9.0 REB, 1.7 STL, 1.3 BLK, .533 FG%, .833 FT%
Jared Dudley, SF/SG: 28.3 MPG, 5.3 PTS, 0.7 3PM, .316 FG%
Michael Beasley, SF/PF: 28.3 MPG, 15.3 PTS, 5.7 REB, 1.3 3PM, 1.0 STL
Bench players to watch:
Shannon Brown, SG: 20.3 MPG, 9.3 PTS, 2.0 AST
Markieff Morris, PF: 17.0 MPG, 4.7 PTS, 3.3 REB
Here are some fertile fantasy conditions: no franchise player, lottery-bound in a tough conference, and four players on track to average between 28 to 35 minutes per game.
Contrast the Suns' distribution of minutes with a deep playoff-bound team such as the Celtics, who currently feature seven players averaging at least 22 minutes per night. (And that number will climb to eight when Avery Bradley returns.)
Depth is fantastic when constructing a team to advance deep into the postseason, but it's a real buzzkill for said team's ongoing fantasy prospects.
Dragic and Gortat were two of my most-drafted players of this preseason. Their ADPs seemed criminally low. Why did they drop? Both players were recent additions, hailing from (A) other smaller market teams and (B) foreign countries. Both players also only became full-time starters over the past season or so. And no one nationally was talking up Phoenix.
Then you also add a couple of change-of-scenery bounceback candidates in Scola and Beasley. In this lineup, Beasley should evolve into a role as the Suns' go-to-guy in crunch time, and Scola will, as always, continue to provide cheap blocks and boards.
Orlando Magic
Heavy Rotation Players:
Jameer Nelson, PG: 35.0 MPG, 9.0 PTS, 7.0 AST, 4.0 REB, 1.0 3PM, 1.0 STL (currently day-to-day)
Arron Afflalo, SG: 35.0 MPG, 14.5 PTS, 1.5 3PM, 5.0 REB
J.J. Redick, SG: 34.0 MPG, 22.5 PTS, 6.0 AST, 3.0 3PM, 1.0 STL, .640 FG%
Glen Davis, PF/C: 33.0 MPG, 25.5 PTS, 9.0 REB, 1.0 STL, 1.0 BLK
E'Twaun Moore, SG: 31.5 MPG, 14.0 PTS, 4.5 AST, 4.0 REB, 2.0 3PN, 1.5 STL, .571 FG%
Nikola Vucevic, PF/C: 26.5 MPG, 12.0 PTS, 8.5 REB, 1.0 STL, 1.0 BLK, .545 FG%
Bench Players To Watch:
Josh McRoberts, PF: 23.0 MPG, 7.0 PTS, 7.0 REB
Gustavo Ayon, PF (Out): 9.0 MPG, 0.0 PTS, 4.0 REB
Andrew Nicholson, PF: 3.5 PTS
Maurice Harkless, SF (Out)
Al Harrington, PF (Out)
Hedo Turkoglu, SF (Out)
Are the Magic getting the last laugh? After they were collectively guffawed out of the building by every NBA observer in existence? Well, no one here's going to make anyone forget Dwight Howard. But the Magic could be primed to provide a couple of heartwarming little fantasy success stories (At least it will be heartwarming for me; I'm a sucker for post one-sided-trade team-wide revenge seasons.).
As of this writing, the Magic sport six players notching at least 26.5 minutes a game. It's a mirage. Merely temporary. Because the Magic also have six players nursing injuries. And those six have the potential to play their way onto the fantasy radar. Some are grizzled vets (Harrington, Turkoglu). Some are unproven but carry buzz (Harkless, Ayon).
As Redick and Moore inevitably cool off, and Nelson and company heal up, the Magic's teamwide fantasy mojo will become more difficult to peg. There are a ton of variables at play here. This is essentially an expansion team. They're constructed to garner a high lottery pick for a lengthy rebuild.
They could go all-young with Harkless and Nicholson. Or they could go for instantaneously semi-respectable with Harrington and Turkoglu. Or something in between. It will be a while before I totally trust what's going on here.
New Orleans Hornets
Heavy Rotation Players:
Greivis Vasquez, PG: 36.7 MPG, 13.0 PTS, 9.7 AST 4.7 REB
Ryan Anderson, PF: 34.0 MPG, 14.0 PTS, 8.0 REB, 2.3 3PM
Al-Farouq Aminu, SF: 32.7 MPG, 13.3 PTS. 7.0 REB, 2.0 STL, 1.7 BLK, .594 FG%
Robin Lopez, C: 31.3 MPG. 14.3 PTS, 7.7 REB, 2.0 BLK, .556 FG%
Austin Rivers, SG/PG: 29.0 MPG, 6.0 PTS, 3.3 AST. 1.7 STL
Anthony Davis, PF/C (Out): 21.5 MPG, 14.5 PTS, 6.5 REB, 1.5 BLK, 1.0 STL
Bench Players To Watch:
Eric Gordon, SG (Out)
When your franchise player can't get on the court, and is having words like "microfracture" mentioned, it's going to open up production up and down the rest of that team's lineup. And because the Hornets carry a lack of depth at multiple positions (every position but power forward), it points toward a highly concentrated mix of minutes and touches at the top of their rotation.
A small confession: I've had a small roto crush on Aminu since he came into the league. He's got the sort of athleticism that translates into across-the-board box scores. If he stays around 30 MPG, and can hit the occasional 3-pointer, Aminu could crack the top 40 on the Player Rater.
I'm a little concerned about the roles in the frontcourt, especially Ryan Anderson coming off the bench. Davis will eventually garner the lion's share of frontcourt minutes. My guess is that Robin Lopez's playing time will suffer as a result, probably dropping into the 27-30 MPG range.
Austin Rivers is a rising X-factor. There's a growing possibility that Eric Gordon will be shelved for the duration. Rivers has struggled from the field, but he's recovering from some (less serious) injuries of his own (two ankle sprains).
With only Roger Mason pushing for minutes, it's entirely possible that Rivers could have a long-term 30 minutes per game delivered to him on a silver platter. With no playoff expectations, Rivers would be given every opportunity to stick as the starter.
As a lottery pick, Rivers carries some pretty high expectations of his own. Scouts and personnel men seem divided on Rivers, but I'm guessing the upside is there.

SBUX is looking for another acquisition. Who are the most logical candidates? GMCR? too expensive...they should of acquired them three months ago when they were at 1/3 the market cap. What about Coffee Holdings (JVA) at a market cap of $50 million? SBUX could scoop them up with the change in their seat cushions. How about Farmer Brothers? This $200 million market cap company seems more logical due to their national distribution footprint, large national contracts such as McDonalds, Target and Walgreens, entry in the k-cup business and vast real estate holdings.
Coffee can really do Great Things nowadays !!

Insert Coins, video-game-themed nightclub, coming to Minneapolis
Insert Coins, the world's first video-game-themed nightclub, is coming soon to the Warehouse District in Minneapolis
Ya'll ready for this? Insert Coins, the world's first video-game-themed nightclub, has set its sights on Minneapolis for its new location. Opening in the old Karma spot across from the Fine Line in downtown Minneapolis, Insert Coins will host a variety of both new and retro digitally themed goodies.
According to the club, we can expect this to be more of an "entertainment attraction than just 'another nightclub'".
What are some of the things you'll be able to expect from Insert Coins? Look for a full bar outfitted with 45 refurbished, classic video game cabinets; HD video game stations featuring a variety of consoles, including Atari 2600, Super Nintendo, and XBOX 360; and a "motion sensor/3D gaming hallway sporting two 70-inch HDTVs."

Make sure to re-emphasize *why* they should be so generous and apologize for any inconvenience your past history has caused them. And also make sure to let them know that you really do appreciate the response and professionalism of ACS, as well.
Worked for us. Turned a REALLY bad situation into one we were REALLY happy with. Now, sending in our payment doesn't hurt so much (emotionally or financially)!!
Best of luck to you!! Yay!!!
Is there any way you could pm me this contact information? I have tried 14 separate GW letters to ACS and having no luck at all - it's only two lates from 15 months ago but it would help so much to get those taken off.
I would really appreciate it

The F-15A/C is irrefutably the most successful jet fighter of the last 30 years. Serving in the Air Forces of Israel, the United States and Saudi Arabia, it has racked up a kill ratio exceeding 105:0. Despite its age, it remains the leading operational air superiority and intercept platform in service today. The hi-tech wizardry of modern air combat detailed in this book makes for fascinating reading, even to those not immediately familiar with modern airpower, and a huge pool of previously unpublished information on both aircrafts' combat records is uncovered.

Three Dunedin politicians gave voters food for thought during
an election forum at Council of Social Services Dunedin last
About 100 people heard Labour MP Clare Curran, National List
MP Jo Hayes and Green co-leader Metiria Turei respond to set
questions about major social issues such as the increasing
amount of poverty, the declining quality of housing, the
inequalities in access to health services and the increase in
domestic violence in New Zealand.
For most issues, Mrs Turei and Ms Curran agreed on solutions
to the issues, which included policies providing significant
investment in the health, education and financial welfare of
children and families.
They believed the policies would reduce poverty in New
Zealand and loosen the grip it has on the lives of children.
However, Ms Hayes fought criticism of the Government's work
on those issues so far by presenting National Party policies
implemented to tackle them.
While many had been successful, others were still ''a work in
The room appeared to shift politely, but uncomfortably, at
the mention of the Government's National Standards policy,
which Ms Hayes said was successful in helping reduce poverty
by cutting the number of children falling through cracks in
the education sector.

Research trip - Kyoto: Yu-zen dyeing
Research trip - Kyoto: Yu-zen dyeing
At Chiso Kimono makers
Research trip to Kyoto and Tokyo
As part of my research for both the exhibition itself and the accompanying book , I endeavoured on my first trip to Japan in February of this year. The plan was to visit Kyoto to see some of the craftspeople that contribute to the making of Yohji Yamamoto's incredible garments. The second stop would be Tokyo, or rather Shinagawa, where I would visit the headquarters and, rather nerve-wreckingly, have to interview Mr. Yohji Yamamoto for the publication.
First stop Kyoto, home of small craft industries in particular textiles and ceramics. The Kyo-yuzen dyeing technique originated here in the 1700s and it was the making of this particular kind of Kimono I was about to witness. From the first visit to Chiso in Kyoto (one of the most eminent of Kimono-making companies established in 1555 and also a close collaborator of Yohji Yamamoto) until completed Kimono can take up to three months and hundreds of man-hours designing, dyeing and making it .
Ao-bana utushi – tracing with traditional ink that disappears in the wash
We meet a room full of designers who adapt historical kimono patterns or create new ones depending on the client's wishes. One very humble man was introduced to me as he has over the last decade designed the embroidery and patterns for the only made-to-measure collection Yohji Yamamoto has done for no-one less than Sir Elton John and his Las Vegas Red Piano stage show! We get taken through all the steps of the long process of creating a Yuzen kimono and at the end see how the first version of the finished item is scrutinised by at least half a dozen Chiso managers.

Iro-sashi – painting the design

Gold-leafing – I tried my hands on this one, can't say I am too talented
After this we go to visit a small-scale embroiderer who works on Chiso's products details and get a glimpse of the embroidery done for Sir Elton John.


text: I am really posting this for posterity, to save it somewhere in case I rage again and delete all my teams and because I feel my RSE UU teams and ideas could be my only claim to fame in my almost seven years of Pokemon career. This team was inspired by shrapn3l's offensive RSE UU team and the concept of suicide leads, which comes from DPP. Glalie (M) @ Salac Berry Trait: Inner Focus EVs: 138 HP / 232 Def / 140 Spd Impish Nature (+Def, -SAtk) - Endure - Explosion - Spikes - Taunt Glalie has a quirky stat distribution (whoever decided to make this the "balanced stats pokemon"), awful typing and not much more. But it gets spikes, so I decided to make it feasible. This set combines everything Glalie can stand for: Spikes, Explosion and a good use of its stats - survives stuff like two max attack Kangaskhan D-E's and can reach 340 speed with Salac (faster than timid Electabuzz). This pretty much guarantees at least two layers of Spikes. Three would be prime. Starting with a couple of Spikes and an opponent dead to Explosion is excellent. Taunt is there so nobody can feel smart and attempt to set up on you. Nidoking (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Poison Point EVs: 252 Atk / 252 Spd / 4 SAtk Naive Nature (+Spd, -SDef) - Earthquake - Fire Blast - Ice Beam - Megahorn Nidoking usually crushes everything, with Spikes support it is easier to get past Water types. Also sports a nice number of resistances and immunities (Fighting, Rock, Electric) that make it a handy switch in. Banette (F) @ Salac Berry Trait: Insomnia EVs: 4 HP / 252 Atk / 252 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Destiny Bond - Endure - Shadow Ball - Will-O-Wisp Banette is key to my team's chances against stallers because it blocks Rapid Spin. Now, having a suicidal spin blocker might not sound like the best idea, but usually I only need to switch in once. Say, Blastoise gets in on Nidoking, I go to Banette to block its spin (doesn't matter if I get surfed), burn it or hurt it with Shadow Ball, then go to Electabuzz. Now Blastoise is at best at half health and needs to switch out. If it wants to come in again it will take more spikes damage and lose to everything else in my team. Gligar (F) @ Leftovers Trait: Hyper Cutter EVs: 156 HP / 252 Atk / 100 Spd Adamant Nature (+Atk, -SAtk) - Earthquake - Hidden Power [Flying] - Quick Attack - Swords Dance This usually works like a second Nidoking, but it has Swords Dance so sweeping is easier. It also has a very necessary Ground immunity. Grumpig (M) @ Leftovers Trait: Thick Fat EVs: 252 HP / 16 Spd / 240 SDef Calm Nature (+SDef, -Atk) - Calm Mind - Psychic - Rest - Sleep Talk This guy is here so I have something to fall back on when they send out something I can't KO easily. It also takes status afflictions. Electabuzz (F) @ (No Item) Trait: Static EVs: 4 HP / 252 Spd / 252 SAtk Timid Nature (+Spd, -Atk) - Hidden Power [Grass] - Ice Punch - Thief - Thunderbolt See Nidoking, except replacing Water types by Hypno/Grumpig. Spikes guarantees this gets surefire kills. Thief is here to annoy Hypno and destroy Shedinja. It also saves your ass sometimes stealing Salacs or even Choice Bands (!). This team is very fun to play because I always have to be creative and predict well to get past threats like Fearow. It is all about switching only when absolutely necessary, taking into account what mons your opponent has and which of yours you need in order to sweep. Electabuzz, Gligar and Nidoking can usually take on at least three of any team's mons (or more with Spikes help), so it's easy to put yourself in an advantageous position.

Apartment blaze last week largest in Hobbs history
HOBBS, N.M. (AP) — Officials say a massive blaze that recently destroyed five buildings at an apartment complex is the largest structure fire in Hobbs history.
The Hobbs News-Sun reports (http://goo.gl/ZMsRk4) that Fire [auth] Marshal Eric Enriquez said the inferno last week took four apartment buildings and a pool house, which was a total of 36,000 square feet. Authorities say that surpassed both the 2009 warehouse fire on Marland and the 2007 Tootie's grocery store fire.
Enriquez says the fire at the Ledgestone Apartments is still under investigation, but so far there is no evidence the blaze was started intentionally.
Hobbs Fire Chief Tim Kent says a few fire trucks were damaged by radiant heat, which also ignited dumpsters and melted portable toilets.
No injuries were reported.

With pretty much every game on TV, sometimes I just have to listen on the radio, or gameday audio so I don't have to listen to the crackling of 700 here in Newark. The Reds used to carry about 35 games on their network during the 70s and another good number were on national telecasts, back in the day of 3 channels. But the rest, my only option was to listen to Marty and Joe. So, I'd keep track of the score while watching a TV program, or playing a game, or reading a book.
Now, with virtually every game on TV, I find myself an addict. I say "tonight, I'm just going to listen to the game and do something else with the game in the background." Then, no one claims the TV at game time, or the kids ask "hey dad, are the Reds on tonight?" and that is my invitation to pull out the needle, er, remote, and turn on the TV.
Anyone else fighting this battle night after night? Do you find relief when a day game happens and there is no game on to fight the need for a fix? Or, do I need an intervention?
BTW, if everyone else goes to bed before the game is over and the game is worth watching, guess where I'll be in the final few innings tonight?

Rated 5 out of 5Â by cbs12 Double Take I have had this phone for a little over a month and the only problem I have had was a belt clip broke and Alltel said it was no longer availible so in 5 minutes I had one ordered via the internet cheaper than Alltel sold me the original. I love this phone being somewhat sight impaired due to being diabetic I can see most of the things I need and it also allows voice dialing which is a great feature when medical emergencies arrive I can push one button and just say call plus the person's name and the call goes though.

Rated 4 out of 5Â by Verified Reviewer Simple, Affordable - you get what you pay for. While this phone doesn't have any "bells and whistles" it does a good job and its been a good phone for a decent price..... Its an average phone, works well and its durable. January 31, 2014

I have more than one user on my vps, each one in a different sftp jail.
AFAIK to use the upgrade option without being asked for the ftp credentials are:
- add the ftp credentials to the wp_config.php file
- change the FS_METHOD to 'direct' in wp-config.php
- change the owner of every file to the one that the webserver is running
So, there's some way that can work when you have a lot of different users and you rather don't give the ownership of his/her files to the webserver's user? (obviously editing each wp-config it isn't a good idea either).
