Aldermen set utility rates for city
The Mayor and Board of Aldermen literally hope their new rates will hold water as they go into effect early this fall.
With a unanimous vote on July 6, the board approved a new water and sewer rate structure. Rates will follow those used by the Tunica County Utility District. Residential customers will pay $12 a month for water up to 6000 gallons, plus $10 per month for sewer services up to 6000 gallons. Every 1000 gallons over the minimum will cost $2 for water and $3 for sewer. Commercial customers are divided into three different categories: small, large and hotels, motels and apartment complexes. Small commercial businesses are defined as those who will use less than 15,000 gallons a month. They will pay $12 for water up to 6000 gallons and $2 for every 1000 gallons over that. They will pay $18 for sewer services up to 6000 gallons and $3 for every 1000 gallons over the minimum.

Yes, Gov. Rick Scott has seen Dolphin Tale.
So, it seemed when he started character name dropping during an economic development and tourism discussion Friday at the .
Scott really seemed . Who he vowed to get to meet before leaving.
He also talked about the importance of the aquarium and others throughout the state that will be able to get a slice of the tourist tax pie after signing a bill that changes how that money can be spent.
"It's a great story here what's happening here with Winter and Rufus," Scott said. "That's the types of story you want. It's good for the community and good for Florida."
The bill allows for repairs, improvements and construction for publicly owned venues, or those run by non-profits, including convention centers, arenas and museums using money generated from county tourist taxes. The tax money will now be able to be used for aquariums too.
The change could also help 24 other aquariums throughout the state.
Two green shirted summer campers stood next to the stingray touch tank as Scott started his tour of the Clearwater Marine Aquarium.
"Is that the real governor?" one boy asked.
"That's the real governor," the other answered.
Scott tried to blend in with the other nearly 3,000 other anticipated visitors to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium during his tour Friday.
Some of the marine wildlife at the aquarium seemed excited about the governor's visit.
Nicholas, a dolphin who was rescued during Christmas Eve 2002, put on a show for a handful of visitors including Scott. The dolphin, which has severe burn scars on his back, danced and swam in a pool, eventually doing an aerial flip which soaked the governor and his entourage.
"The splash was unintentional," said Krista Rosado, spokeswoman with the aquarium.
The tailless dolphin is the center of a $2 billion economic engine.
Winter is a piece of the tourism puzzle that attracts 86 million visitors to Florida each year. And tourism in the Tampa Bay area has spiked directly because of the Dolphin Tale movie, Yates said.
Her story is the catalyst to an expected $2 billion economic impact over the next five years in Pinellas County according to a USF study that should be released in three weeks, Yates said.
Yates said the 20-page study took about nine months to put together. It used detailed information culled from different economic indicators since the movie's release in November.
Since the release of , a movie based on the story of Winter the Dolphin, visitor numbers at the aquarium have .
Yates is not sure how much, or when any of the tourist tax money will be able to be used. Much of it is spent as part of a deal with the Tampa Bay Rays.
But Yates does want to be able to secure more funding for expansion and other construction projects for the aquarium.
"All we want to do is put ourselves in the mix," Yates said.
The Clearwater Marine Aquarium is to support construction of a new facility that adds stadium style-seating to the dolphin pool and will double the sea turtle rehabilitation facilities.
Under construction for the last few months, the Big Jacobson Education Center, named after Dick Jacobson who donated $1 million to the aquarium.
The wing will house administrative offices and education classrooms. On the east side of the building construction of a new lobby is going to start soon too, Yates said.
Scott's tour ended with the ceremonial signing of the bill. As Scott started his speech Winter also chimed in with her well known squeal.
"Winter's speaking now," Scott said, stopping briefly.
He took a seat that resembled a movie set director's chair behind a large wooden desk. On the desk was a cup full of pens, a stuffed Winter plush toy and the bill to sign.
After holding the tailless toy, Scott grabbed a pen and signed the changes into law.
"Hopefully there will be a sequel and there will be more stars," Scott said during the bill signing.

RalphSd saidSomething you reminds me of me, me all the same, except that I have not played in a local group, but plan to do so soon
It is a very broad question!
I grew up listening to Iron Maiden…and Metallica…the nostalgia evey song of them has such memories of my early teenage years!
Then My style chifted to Death Metal and been a huge fan of Children of Bodom, I was the lead guitarist in a local band.
Then my style became more progressive…and I started listening to Dream Theater, Symphony X and Opeth….After that phase I started listening to some Steve Vai, Satriani.
And now I maintained the last phase with some oldies and soft rockIll only listen to death metal again if I want to refresh some old memories, cant stand the growling/screeching anymore! hehe
Nice! Well if you have an opportunity then surely go for it! I stopped because nothing other than wasting time came out of it, or at least thats how it is in Lebanon. We used to earn 100$ per gig and that is divided by 6 . And that is the average wage per gig in Lebanon. We really had/have a bad Metal scene over here + People over here will regard you as Satan Worshipers hehe..

A motorcyclist who State Police said may have been speeding and weaving through traffic remains in Cooper University Hospital after .
The preliminary investigation, which indicated the two factors, also showed the man, whose name has not yet been released, was attempting to go from the far right lane to the far left lane when the accident occurred around 3 p.m., Sgt. Brian Polite said.
After hitting a 16-foot trailer landscaping trailing, which was being towed behind a pickup, the motorcyclist was thrown from his bike, Polite said. The extent of his injuries wasn't known late Monday night.
One person who drove through the closure, where the wrecked motorcycle and a helmet were lying in the roadway, said there was blood visible on the median barrier near where the accident occurred.
The crash essentially shut down a two-mile stretch of highway through the late afternoon, after accident investigators closed two northbound lanes between Exits 22 and 23 near West Deptford High School around the accident scene.
As state Department of Transportation trucks directed drivers through and around the closure, investigators spent hours going over the site.
No other injuries were reported in the crash.

A controversial bill to redirect funding from NOAA Operations into regional fishery management council projects cast a shadow Monday over Wednesday's national fishermen's rally near the U.S. Capitol in Washington — a rally aimed at building support for different legislation and allowing flexibility in stock rebuilding timetables.
The chief organizer for the rally told the Times he had advised the office of Sen. Olympia Snow that she would probably not be welcomed at the event should she make an appearance to promote the Fisheries Investment and Regulatory Relief Act of 2012 — the new bill she co-filed with Sen. John Kerry — rather than bills writing flexibility into the Magnuson-Stevens Act, the rally's prime focus.
Jim Donofrio, executive director for the Recreational Fishing Alliance, said he had been contacted by Snowe's office about joining the list of speakers that includes Kerry, Congressmen John Tierney and Barney Frank, and about two dozen other federal lawmakers who have signed onto Senate and House versions of the flexibility bills.
"I told her (aide) the senator is welcome as long as she supports our goals for obtaining flexibility," said Donofrio. "We don't want her to discuss the 'Saltonstall-Kennedy' bill."
Donofrio was referring to the legislation Kerry and Snowe co-filed to reset the 1954 law that intended to create a dedicated funding source for fisheries research, development and marketing equal to 30 percent of seafood import tariffs. Over the years, Congress has diverted nearly all Saltonstall-Kennedy funding — about $100 million a year recently — into NOAA operations.
Donofrio said he was concerned about diluting the focus of the rally, a reunion from the February 2010 "United We Fish" that began a public drumbeat to loosen the strictures of the Magnuson Act on stock rebuilding deadlines.
At a Senate Commerce Committee hearing last October, in response to questioning by Rep. Frank, NOAA Administrator Jane Lubchenco conceded there was no ecological rationale for rebuilding overfished stocks in 10 years, as Magnuson generally requires, but she declined to support flexibility legislation.
Snowe has not supported New York Sen. Charles Schumer's bill, part of a tandem with New Jersey Rep. Frank Pallone's, to codify reasons to extend the rebuilding deadlines, which, when matched with the 2006 requirement for hard catch limits, have produced the ultra-small allocations that are the bane of the commercial and recreational fishing industry.
The pyramid of foundation-funded environmental groups led by Environmental Defense Fund and the Pew Environment Group have opposed loosening Magnuson, but are ardent supporters of Kerry and Snowe's reset of the Saltsonstall-Kennedy Act, written by then-Sen. John F. Kennedy and his Republican Massachusetts colleague.
The Fisheries Investment and Regulatory Relief Act, as Kerry and Snowe's bill is called, has raised suspicions due to the perception widespread within the recreational and commercial sectors that the eight regional fishery management councils, especially those for Atlantic fisheries of the Southeast and New England, have become captive to anti-fishing interests emanating from Lubchenco's office, EDF and the Pew Environment Group.
"I call it the Pew Relief Act," Bob Jones, executive director of the Southeastern (Commercial) Fisheries Association, said of Kerry and Snowe's bill — which also has the support of the Gloucester-based Northeast Seafood Coalition, a fishing industry group.
Jones pointed out that the bill limits to three the number of industry representatives on each 13-member regional investment committee that would decide on the use of funds redirected from NOAA operations.
"It would be foolish to spend another penny on the councils until the management system is fixed," said former Mayor Scott Lang of New Bedford.
Lubchenco was an EDF officer before her nomination by President Obama to head NOAA, and before that was a Pew fellow and a driving force within the Pew Oceans Commission which helped set the agenda for the seas in the last decade before disbanding in 2003.
At Frank and Tierney's urging, the Commerce Department inspector general Todd Zinser n January notified Lubchenco that his office had begun reviewing the "rule-making process" — whether EDF, Pew and other non-government organizations all linked to well endowed foundations of industrial powerhouses including Wal-Mart and Intel.
Snowe's office did not respond to queries about her plans for Wednesday's noon rally at Upper Senate Park adjacent to the Russell Senate Office Building, which is attracting charter buses from as far away as Panama City, Florida. A bus for New Englanders is due to leave the New Bedford waterfront at 2 a.m., stopping to pick up passengers in Rhode Island and Connecticut.
Kerry, whose office was made aware of the controversy over his bill, "is still working on his remarks," said his spokeswoman, Whitney Smith.
Richard Gaines can be reached at 978-283-7000, x3464, or at email@example.com.
To reserve a seat on the bus to Wednesday's Washington-bound fishing rally bus from New Bedford, contact Tina Jackson at 401-837-6932 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Reservations are $30 a seat. The Northeast Seafood Coalition has pledged to reimburse its members' bus costs.
The bus leaves New Bedford Wednesday morning at 2 a.m. Visit keepfishermenfishing.com for an itinerary and facts about the event.

A seven-year Cranston resident, coach, father and LaSalle Academy grad announced this morning that he is running for the City Council in Ward 5.
Chris Paplauskas, a Republican, said he believes "our best days are ahead of us" and "our city needs to be fiscally responsible and prioritize the same way families do" in a press release.
Paplauskas is endorsed by the Republican City Committee and has a pledge of support from Cranston Mayor Allan W. Fung, who said he's glad to have Paplauskas running "as part of my team."
"I've known Chris for several years now through his family's business in Cranston. He will treat the residents of Ward 5 with the same care and attention that he shows to his customers," Fung said.
That business, Balloons Over Rhode Island, bills itself as the largest and oldest promotional advertising company in the Northeast.
Paplauskas now is a manager for Falvey Linen Supply, a Cranston company.
A father of two, Aidan and Sophia, Paplauskas said the birth of his first child in 2007 after his 2005 marriage to his wife, Judy, sparked "a passion for seeing that Cranston remains a great city to raise a family."
Bruce Saccoccio, the Republican City Committee chairman, said Paplauskas will bring "a level of energy and committtment to the Cranston City Council that the residents of Ward 5 have not enjoyed for a long time.
"As a young father raising a family in this city, he knows all too well how important the role of the city council is in preserving Cranston's charming qualities for future generations," Saccoccio said.
If elected, Paplauskas, a Calvary Street resident, pledges to fight special interest groups and "old-style politics that have taken Cranston away from the taxpayers" and listed education, jobs, public safety, the environment and a balanced budget as priorities.
"We need to foster local control in our schools, encourage healthy businesses, cultivate a careful stewardship of Cranston's youth programs and parks, and most of all, transparency in government are my number one priorities," he said. "Cranston can be one of the [cities] leading the way for the future of Rhode Island. We just need to have a clear vision and do it."
Councilman Richard D. Santamaria Jr. currently holds the Ward 5 seat.

House Forecast Update
by Chris Bowers, Wed Sep 13, 2006 at 08:46:49 AM EDT
- NY-24 drops from "lean Dem" to "toss-up" following a strong internal poll for the Republican in the race
- WI-08 moves up into "toss-up/ lean Dem" from "toss-up" following self-financing Kagen's big win yesterday. Kagen has an internal poll showing him up double-digits
- AZ-08 moves up into "lean Dem" now that it is Giffords vs. Graf.
- VA-02 drops to "toss-up / lean Rep" from "toss-up following a strong internal poll for Republican Drake
- CA-04 and NC-08 move onto the board after favorable internal polls suggest close races
- NH-01 drops off the board since upset winner Shea-Porter has only 3% of her opponent's cash
- LA-03 drops off the board after I finally woke up and realized that Katrina made this district unwinnable for Republicans for many reasons
- VT-AL downgraded after new cash report, new poll, and coming to my senses
- Cash on hand numbers updates for campaigns in New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, Minnesota, Arizona, and Wisconsin.
Update: I'll be fixing VA-02 shortly, since I did nto at first catch that the internal Drake poll was a bogus, one-day internal snapshot. If she is only eleasing one day, it is safe to say that the other days don't look nearly as good. Thus, it is safe to say that I should not have downgraded that race.

The Edmond Sun
EDITOR'S NOTE: As a public service to our community, this is the third in a series of six weekly articles for the annual Edmond Sun Christmas Samaritan Fund Drive benefiting the HOPE Center of Edmond.
Volunteers leave the HOPE Center of Edmond knowing they've done something worthwhile that day.
Edmond children need not suffer from the stark cold of winter because of HOPE Center volunteers like Natalie Heng. Children are tucked under bedtime covers provided by the HOPE Center of Edmond. Families receive temporary assistance for clothing, utilities and medicine. Prenatal care is provided to expectant mothers who may otherwise not be able to afford assistance.
"If you can't give financially you should consider volunteering your time because it's easy and it's fun," said Heng, a senior at Oklahoma Christian School. "You get to know people here and you get to make an impact on your community at the same time."
Heng was spending her fourth day at HOPE Center. She likes seeing the clients there choose clothing for their families.
HOPE has 12 full-time employees and 6-8 workers at the clinic, store and center. The center's weekly volunteers organize clothing donations. They also assist clients when receiving clothing, bedding and household items. Food room volunteers help place items on shelves or in boxes ready to go.
"I volunteered for this to get community service but also because it's fun. You're actually doing something that makes a difference," said Jordan Clark, an Oklahoma Christian School senior.
Clark said she also has volunteered for U R Special Ministries and that it feels good to see the smiles that families get when getting clothes at either pantry.
Leslie Shuck was busy organizing clothes on her first day volunteering at the HOPE Center clothing pantry.
"It feels really good because I know I'm really blessed, so it feels really good to help others that aren't as blessed to have a good Christmas," said Shuck, an OCS senior.
There is always a need for volunteers to work in the clothing closet, said Cheryl Woods, volunteer coordinator. "This time of year we're especially busy and it's important that we really go through the incoming donations and make sure we're finding the very best items to place on our clothing room shelves."
Nearly 200 volunteers devote their time to HOPE Center on a weekly basis, Woods said.
This year's goal of raising $160,000 for the Christmas Samaritan Fund Drive was set to provide more than one-third of the HOPE Center's $400,000 annual budget, said Brenda Chambers, financial coordinator.
"The HOPE Center is a unique community collaboration that serves a number of individuals and families in a number of ways," Lt. Gov. Todd Lamb said. "During this season of giving, we commend the contributors and volunteers of the HOPE Center who through true acts of service provide Oklahomans with not only necessities, but also the life-giving virtue of hope."
Reception volunteers will greet clients and answer phone calls so clients will feel comfortable and respected, said Chris Sperry, executive director.
"We get (Boy) Scouts who want to earn their Eagle project for us," Sperry said.
TO LEARN MORE about HOPE Center, 1251 N. Broadway, visit www.hopecenterofedmond.com or call 348-1340. To send a donation, mail it to P.O. Box 2915, Edmond, OK, 73083.
HOPE Center is open Monday through Thursday and office hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.; Friday hours for clients are from 8:30 a.m. to noon. Donation hours are from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Thursday; 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
For holiday hours, HOPE Center will be open until Dec. 21 for client services. It will close the last week of December and first week of January for client services. The warehouse will be open for donations from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. every day.

CIGNA follows the American Psychiatric Association (APA) Guidelines for the treatment of Acute Stress Disorder and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. These guidelines accept EMDR for treatment. (CIGNABehavioral.com - Practice Guidelines for Behavioral Health Practitioners).
Magellan's Clinical Practice Guideline dated February 21, 2006 states that "EMDR has been found to be about as effective as other modalities for reducing symptoms of PTSD…" It also says that "EMDR may provide relief earlier than other modalities; and may be tolerated better than ET (Exposure Therapy) by some patients." Magellan follows the APA Guidelines. Updated 5/9/06
TRICARE Management Activity, the U.S. Department of Defense military health system, covers EMDR for the treatment of PTSD in adults. TRICARE changed its psychotherapy treatment policies to cover EMDR on November 3, 2010 with an effective date retroactive to April 16, 2007. EMDRIA began its efforts to gain TRICARE in 2005.
UBH has published its Best Practice Guidelines 2009 which for the treatment of PTSD refer to the American Psychiatric Association (APA) Guidelines. UnitedHealth Group, through its affiliate UnitedHealth Military & Veteran's Services LLC (UMVS), is contracted with the Department of Defense to provide Managed Care Support Services in the TRICARE SOUTH Region effective April 1, 2011. This involves the following states: AL, AR, GA, KY (Fort Campbell only), LA, MS, OK, SC, TN, TX (excluding El Paso) and FL. Updated 6/3/10
Wellmark's Behavioral Health Guide (updated October 2010) "allows benefits for up to 10 one hour-sessions of EMDR for the treatment of post tramatic stress disorder (PTSD), provided the services are medically necessary. Services for EMDR therapy are considered individual psychotherapy and should be billed using procedure codes 90804 – 90807." Updated 2/2011

The American Psychiatric Association has released Practice Guideline for the Treatment of Patients with Acute Stress Disorder and Posttraumatic Stress Disorder. EMDR is given the same status as CBT as an effective treatment for ameliorating symptoms of both acute and chronic PTSD.
Published in 2007 by the Australian Centre for Posttraumatic Mental Health. The Guidelines state that "adults with PTSD should be provided with trauma-focused interventions (trauma-focused cognitive behavioural therapy [CBT] or eye movement desensitization [EMDR] and reprocessing, in addition to in vivo exposure).
Published in March 2005 by the UK 's National Institute for Clinical Excellence. This Guideline explicitly 'warns' clients to not use other treatments than trauma focused CBT or EMDR. There is also a Power Point Slideshow available to spread the good news.
There was evidence that EMDR, individual Trauma-focused cognitive behavioral therapy/exposure therapy (TFCBT), stress management and group TFCBT are effective in the treatment of PTSD. Other non-trauma focused psychological treatments did not reduce PTSD symptoms as significantly. There was some evidence that individual TFCBT and EMDR are superior to stress management in the treatment of PTSD at between 2 and 5 months following treatment, and also that TFCBT, EMDR and stress management were more effective than other therapies. Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews 2007.
VA/DoD Clinical Practice Guideline for the Management of Post-Traumatic Stress. EMDR was one of four therapies given the highest level of evidence and recommended for treatment of PTSD.
EMDR was ranked as an evidence-based, Level A treatment for PTSD in adults.

Video call debugger running on iPad?
9to5mac got their hands on what appears to be an extreme close up of a video call debugger running on an iPad. Now that iPod touch has gotten a camera and FaceTime, can iPad really be far behind?
Apple special event in late January to announce iPad 2, followed by video camera capable iPad in March/April? But will it have both front-facing and rear camera, or just one or the other?
There are 21 comments. Add yours.
It's too close to really tell. But for sure that it will have FaceTime. The iPod Touch did.
I'm with geo, I think it will have FaceTime. Honestly, Apple knows better than to let us down on that one.
I love the iPad, but isn't it just too darn big for that!
Kick Butt
It will 110% have FaceTime , that is where apple is heading as a company and where it's taking it's ios
I would say front facing for face time. Makes no sense to have a rear camera to take pictures.
If you streamed the keynote, you may have noticed steve jobs mention in passing that HDR photos were coming to the iPad withyhe 4.2 update. I feel like I was the only one who noticed that slip.
@Ryan I caught that too. I was wondering what he meant. And that's definitely a slip. And I didn't buy a iPad because it's got no camera, front or rear. 2nd gen will be much better.
You do not need a camera for hdr but it will be better, just 3 pics of the same thing, the iPad does not need a rear camera..at all that for the iPhone people... Now more RAM is what everyone should be yelling about because there is no way 4.0/4.2 on ipad will be snappy with multitasking. Apps crash already and web always needs to refresh, iphone 4 has no prob bc or double ram. But I really hope that the reason it has taken so long for the update is bc apple is trying hard to make it quick and GOOD
I really don't know why you need face time or a camera on an iPad. I really think that would be douchie. My phone has it that is enough. I very much agree about double the ram. The next iPad will be what the 3GS was, all about speed.
I heard the slip from Jobs too. I wonder if it was an accident if not will there be a new iPad just in time for the holidays? I sure hope so!!!
@MacMan I think Facetime and a front facing camera would go well on an iPad. These things are being used more and more in lieu of laptops. Since just about every laptop has a webcam built in nowadays, it makes sense to add one to the iPad. But a rear HD cam, though? Meh. Not really necessary.
A front facing camera would be nice but a rear facing one, no its to big for that. Been holding out for the new iPad as I agree the biggest thing it needs is double or more ram
If Steve Jobs have revealed HDR Photo's on his iOS4.2 part of his keynote, why would he reveal it now? I think this FT is probably for the current iPad and they will probably sell cam's for iPads. Else it wouldn't make any sense to reveal the HDR-part for the iPad last week
On the topic of FaceTime... My biggest question is when will it be able to work with Macs... Seems silly that it works with the iPod touch (obviously without using a phone number) and yet no Mac support.
I agree with kagan, Mac support needs to happen to make this a perfect setup. Also 3G facetime would really help as just wifi is really not brilliant
Solid webpage. I bought a whole lot of fantastic info. I?ve been maintaining an eye on this technological innovation for awhile. It?s intriguing how it keeps varying, yet some of the core parts remain the same. Have you seen much alter since Yahoo made their latest acquisition inside the field?
According to the latest news, Apple plans to launch its next version of Apple iPad tablet by the June, 2011. This latest Apple tablet is named as iPad 2. The analysts are making claims that second generation of Apple iPad will built-in camera capable of video calls via FaceTime, a thinner/lighter construction and a mini USB port with the coming of 2011's 2nd quarter.
Hi I like your post and it is so good and I am gonna save it. One thing to say the Superb analysis you have done is greatly remarkable.Who goes that extra mile these days? Well Done!!! Just one more suggestion you shouldinstall a Translator Application for your Global Audience ..
yeah, I completely agree with your views, as is known to everyone, with the growing number of ipad owners, ipad is becoming more and more popular all over the world! it is already a trend!
I have to say that for the last few of hours i have been hooked by the impressive articles on this website. Keep up the wonderful work.

La Parolaccia: Mamma mia pasta!
This is definitely one of my favourite restaurants in Buenos Aires. I love pasta and the one you get here is really worth trying.
On Friday and Saturday nights as well as Sunday at lunchtime, it usually gets rather busy, so you may have to wait for around 20 minutes to get a table.
Try to get a table next to the window which overlooks the river (canal), the view there is gorgeous.
There are two Parolaccias: Parolaccia and Parolaccia di Mare. In the latter they have pasta as well as seafood.
Favorite Dish: "Raviol neri al salmone" is awesome! This is black ravioli filled with salmon mousse and it's covered in a spring onions sauce with caviar... two thumbs up!
Also merluza negra (black hake) is another good dish... it just melts in your mouth!
La Parolaccia: Buona pasta
This restaurant is located in Puerto Madero neighborhood, fancy decoration and excelent pastas. The waiters are young girls very kind, calm ambiance and a little expensive, like always in Puerto Madero area.
Favorite Dish: Tagliatellis with calamari sauce
La Parolaccia: Great Italian Food
This is a traditional, old school Italian trattoria located in the Belgrano District of Bs As. La Parolaccia serves traditional Italian food, but with a Roman flare. Very popular every day of the week, and for good reason; the food is excellent! I had the Caesar Salad for an appetizer, and it was very good, but where the food really stands out is in the entrees. I has the Ravioli di quatro formaggi (four cheese ravioli). It was served with a light bolognese sauce, which was flavored perfectly -- which is to say not too sweet. Two of my dining companions had the gnocchi (a house specialty), and they raved about them. Gnocchis seem to be very popular in Buenos Aires as they are on every Italian menu, and even on some menus that aren't Italian.
Their wine list is quite extensive collection of Italian wines supplemented by a wonderful variety of local wines.
I give this restaurant very high marks.
- Budget Travel
- Wine Tasting
- Food and Dining
La Parolaccia: Great italian in cozy surroundings
I've always loved La Parolaccia and I usually go back anytime I am in Buenos Aires - I especially like the one on Riobamba, which is tucked away a couple steps under the sidewalk and is very cozy and romantic. The Parolaccia in Puerto Madero is a bit more upscale, if a bit dark. The one in Avenida del Libertador in the Belgrano neighbourhood is also one of my favorites.
Food is great in each and everyone of them. Service is attentive, prices are reasonable, and noone ever rushes you (independently of how busy they may be)
Favorite Dish: Always been a fan of the Sorrentinos Caruso (a cheese filled pocket pasta - similar to tortelloni - covered in a cream sauce with ham and gratined with parmesan cheese.
- Business Travel
An exquisite selection of plates with fruits of the sea. In full zone chic of Port Madero, this restaurant invites to enjoy its delights of trattoria and of fish and shellfish.
Favorite Dish: I recommend to begin with: an insalata gave mare (salad of calamares, mejillones, pulpo, almejas, shrimps, olive oil and lemon $14). As main: filtel pesci and frutti gave mare grillati (parrillada of fish sword, pollack, pink salmon, calamares, cigala, mejillones, to see and prawns, by $28 eat two persons). Another of the options is merluzzo black scampi and fungui (with prawns, mushrooms, with sauce of cream and congñac $20), or a classical one paella ($28 eat 2).
Of dessert the cup of the house (ice cream of cream, mousse of chocolate, cream chantilli, almonds tostadas, ameretti and jam $7) or a classical one tiramisú.
La Parolaccia: Excellent food, excellent service
This is a very nice Italian restaurant with great food, and excellent service. I went here twice. They also have a "dolce y Caffe' store across the street selling sweets and coffee.
When you sit down, they serve you a complimentary glass of champagne. When you leave, they leve you with a complimentary shot of chilled limoncello (to aid digestion I hear). In between is some very good italian food. Once i had lasagne, and the 2nd time I had gnocchi. If it's your birthday, they'll get about 3 waiters to come over and sing happy birthday in Italian to you, and give you some balloons.
Bill for 2 dinners was about 70pesos....($23)
Favorite Dish: I liked the gnocchi best.
La Parolaccia: great italian or seafood!
there are several restaurants with the same name in the city. all of them are GREAT! The ne called "la paraloccia di mare" is for seafood. there is also a "la parolaccia dolce" in Libertador, across the street from a regular one (the 1st one) All the pastas are amazing, but don't limit yourself to pasta, the other dishes are as good!
GREAT service in ALL the restaurants and GREAT ambience, a totally winner!
Favorite Dish: "noquis", "sorrentinos a la francesa", pizza
- Romantic Travel and Honeymoons
- Business Travel
La Parolaccia del Mare: Great fish
When you finally tire of the meat, this is a good place to get good seafood. It's in Puerto Madero, on the river, but the fish comes from all over Argentina, and the Atlantic. The menu is Italian influenced, and is very good.
La Parolacchia del Mare: Frutos do mar em Porto Madero
Bem decorado, na beira do Puerto Madero, bela vista, serviço atencioso, bem frequentado - um ótimo ambiente para se curtir o Puerto Madero.
Existe um outro Parolacchia igual, mas sem frutos do mar.
Favorite Dish: Não posso recomendar o prato que comi (spaguetti aos frutos do mar) pois, embora muito bem servido, carecia de temperos.
O salmão da Márcia estava bom.
E a cerveja Isenbeck é ótima, achei mais gostosa que a mais comum Quilmes.
Sobremesa, Profiterolis, que deve ser dividido quem não quer se empanturrar de doces.
La Parolaccia: who doesn't like pasta?????
Mamma mia!!!! how to explain the delicious variety of italian food that this restaurant offers!!!
Trust me, just go there!!!!!
Favorite Dish: EVERYTHING (I even get anxious when the bread comes at the begining)

text: I have a pair of LS 50's that I got in 1996. They've always sounded great but recently one of them has developed some distortion and a "buzzy" sound. I thought it might be my amp or speaker wires but after some fiddling isolated one of the drivers that was making the sound. I popped it out and disconnected the wires and the speaker sounds good again. Could it be something else other than the driver itself like internal wiring or crossovers or?? I don't want to spend the $$ to repace the driver and have it be something else.

Erik Kain, Contributor
I write about video games: the industry and the culture.
I really wanted to like the Game of Thrones role-playing game.
The title has been in development for seven years by French developer Cyanide Studio – long enough for a polished game to emerge. Hopefully a game that immerses players in the lore of Game of Thrones and Westerosi intrigue that makes the books and HBO series so great.
But it only took half an hour for me to realize that this was not meant to be.
The badly animated, poorly voice-acted cut-scenes dominate a long stretch of the game's opening, and right away the title's shortcomings begin to dawn on you. Wooden gestures, shoddy facial animation, and an agonizingly slow story do their best to scare you away from the title before you've even drawn your blade.
You begin as Mors, a brother of the Night's Watch. Mors is your typically grim bad-ass, rugged and battle-scarred. He's an honorable man, so far at least, but willing to track down his friend and execute him himself after he deserts his brothers.
As Mors you can play as a Landed Knight, a Hedge Knight, or a Magnar. These classes determine the skill trees and preferred combat styles of your character. You can also customize stats, and choose strengths and weaknesses – the one truly unique part of the game's customization features. Strengths can bolster your character as they level, and weaknesses do just the opposite. Each point you use to strengthen must be balanced by a point of weakness. I liked this small innovation.
I haven't liked much else so far. The combat is turn-based, and I admit to never having been a huge fan of turn-based RPGs. You command a small party of characters and can scroll through each giving them commands. This has potential, and in a high-magic game filled to the brim with spells and powers it could work. As it stands, the combat feels clunky and repetitive.
You also have a pet dog you can issue orders to. The dog is perhaps the most glaring example of the game's lackluster graphics, looking like a beast not so much from another world as another generation of gaming consoles.
Combat is as stilted as the dialogue, and even more repetitive. I could handle poor graphics and animation, bad voice-acting, and all the rest if only the game were more fun. But after only a little over an hour I was bored, glancing despairingly over at the copy of Max Payne 3 lying on a nearby table and imagining going into bullet mode for a while. Bang bang bang.
"If you've suffered through six hours of an experience and remain unhappy, you're either (1) playing a video game, or (2) in prison," Tom Bissell wrote of The Witcher 2. While many of his complaints of that game are valid enough, that title is everything that Game of Thrones is not: polished, well-written and acted, and quite a lot of fun even if it drags at some points and the combat system is imperfect. But he is right about sitting through an experience that keeps you unhappy. You're either playing a game or in prison. Or maybe the hospital – though there you likely have drugs.
7 years? Then as per usual the texture and model quality would seem outdated. If this game has directed its budget in some efficient way, shape, or form, the 7 years of development should show up somewhere. I would keep looking, perhaps it is in the length of the game or something.
A true testimony to the fact that games are not art. Once development goes beyond 3 years age starts to show, and in that as quality rises the game gets worse. See general stalker reception for another example.
That is not always true though. Both Blizzard and Valve have shown that some people who polish know how to polish.
Your statement about games not being art because the game gets worse? What about moves? There are some that get stuck in development hell and do not come out better.
valve is four years, wc3 engine most definitly shows in WoW and they have had over 1200$ per investor so sustaining the devlopment has not been hard.
Sometimes I think that's the biggest mistake games make is always fighting for the highest tech and trying to push graphical limits. My favorite games have always been the ones who do more with less, stylised so they look distinct and unique rather than opting for the best 3D shaders and rendering.
Not every game needs to push the eveloppe of technology. Even if a game would be running on an older engine, it might be preferable to just let that happen rather than try and update it and have everyting just not work.
There was roughly 4-5 years for HL2. But there are other valve franchises.
What about Valve's Team Fortress series? I remember waiting in high school for team fortress 2, and I didn't get it until I was out of college for a few year, and guess what? It was awesome.
Other games with long dev cycles: GTA IV, Twilight Princess, Killzone 2, LA Noire. All good games, some great.
I'm in the same boat as you. I wanted to like this game as I love the books and the show. But I am not willing to give it any time as the reviews across the board seem to be poor.
I'm curious to see how The Last Story goes this summer. It has a turned base/cover mechanic that seems to be well received, and I am a big fan of the series creator and composer.
Well…glad I didn't pre-order this.
I pretty much expected this to suck, though. You really just can't trust a developer who has released a ton of truly awful games with one of the more beloved fantasy properties out there.
Aren't you the guy that just three weeks ago was hyping up the game in an article titled "Five Reasons Cyanide's 'Game of Thrones' RPG Actually Looks Pretty Awesome"?
After you've helped sell your quota of pre-orders you then jump on the bandwagon so you don't look out of touch with your readership? ;)
I realize you're just sharing your thoughts like any blogger — you were excited about the game — but when Forbes gives you a platform to speak from, you have some responsibility to your readers who see you as a credible source of information worth at least partially basing their own decisions on. Whatever your intent, your earlier article was a nice little "commercial" for the game during the pre-order period and leading into the big day one sales push.
I suggest linking your earlier shilling to the opening sentence of this article, so people who drop by for this review through a direct link from elsewhere on the internet can make a more informed decision as to what degree they want to take you for your word.

Every body on this thread know that MacBookPro 7,1 can support 16g of ram it's the other model the problem!
On OWC site it's clearly indicated
*For MacBook Pro 13.3" Mid 2010 (Model ID MacBookPro7,1) Only*
181. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memorysurry355f1 May 20, 2013 5:05 AM in response to alexbolduc
read the whole thread. there are some here that cound'nt get the 7,1 2.66ghz model to work properly. There is some confusion previously on the OWC site where it said only the 2.4ghz 7,1 model worked. I promised to write back once I got my 16GB kit for my 2.66ghz.
182. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memoryatatistcheff99 May 20, 2013 6:57 AM in response to surry355f1
You are right, thanks for the post. alexbold should probably pay more attention. You are the first one I've seen to sctually confirm that the upgrade works on a mid 2010 model with the 2.66Ghz processor. BTW, I even chatted with support at OWC and they did not think it would work either.
183. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memoryGlenn Radford May 20, 2013 8:33 AM in response to alexbolduc
Hello everyone,
It is only the 13" model that can be upgraded, apparently due to a simler video arrangement.
Unless Apple has recently issued a firmware upgrade, the 15" and 17" versions can't be upgraded. I know, it doesn't make sense...
184. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memoryersemi Jun 18, 2013 6:53 AM in response to port77
So finally can you confirm that for Macbook Pro 13'' Mid 2010 there's no problem upgrading to 16GB RAM?
My model is 2,4GHz. I wanted to buy the RAM but I don't want to waste my money if it doesn't really work
so I don't know if it would be better to buy just 8 GB.
Could you please confirm?
Thank you.
185. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memorybfer Jun 18, 2013 7:04 AM in response to ersemi
you are good to go with 16GB on your 13" MBP 2010...
MacBook Pro 13.3" 2.4GHz (Model ID: 7,1) Supports 16.0GB
RAM specs
- Speed: PC3-8500
- Cycle Time: 1.875ns
- Voltage: 1.5V
- ECC: Non ECC
just make sure you are running Lion and have all firmware updates installed.

It's working for me!
I now am running 16GB of RAM, with a 1TB hard drive.
Now, virtual sessions do NOT bog down my operation.
Mac OSx being UNIX, does a "wonderful job" of handling all of these tasks. It just needed the appropriate RAM (workspace ceiling) to do the job!
I have added "TotalSpaces" and "TotalTerminal" as well.
TotalSpaces allows me to press a key and the left or right arrows and roll over to yet another workspace, like in LINUX! And TotalTerminal gives me back that Yakuake "drop-down terminal" utility I love in LINUX. In fact, if the drivers were available for this Macbook Pro hardware in Ubuntu, I'd just change to LINUX and run Mac OSx as a virtual when needed.
Mac OSx is "Apple UNIX", actually bsdUNIX ... "tweaked" and "stripped-down". There is a lot missing in this UNIX version. It'd be nice if you had a fully functional LINUX OS here, with the Mountain Lion interface GUI for workstation use. "THAT" would be a perfect scenario!
187. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memoryRich Allcorn Jun 18, 2013 12:07 PM in response to ersemi
Wholeheartedly, I can!
I went out to YouTube.
There are a lot of items there that tell you what to look for, on your system, to ensure that you are compatible, and "where" to get too RAM that will work. Just specify the "16GB RAM upgrade" and your system name.
I've been using 16GB now for 3 weeks, and it works great! So great, in fact, I upgraded the HDD to a 1TB so that I'd have room for some 'virtual" systems on this one.
188. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memoryGlenn Radford Jun 18, 2013 2:07 PM in response to Rich Allcorn
Unfortuantely, the problem still exists for those of us with 15 or 17 inch MacBook Pros of this vintage.
Help, Apple, PLEASE!!!!
189. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memoryRich Allcorn Jun 18, 2013 8:08 PM in response to Glenn Radford
Please compare your system to those listed in this article.
Your system should take 16GB of RAM, and work flawlessly.
See the link:
http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-20125391-263/add-16gb-ram-to-your-macbook-p ro
Here's a short version of that page, for your review ...
The "key" is getting GOOD MEMORY to use, that works. Mine cost me around $250 for 2 8GB memory chips. I got mine from "Other World Computing" and they are "guaranteed"! You can't beat that!
They are running great!
[Summary - please see the article for details]
These systems are the ones with the model number series of MacBookPro8,x or later, which include the following:
- MacBook Pro 13-inch 2.3GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
- MacBook Pro 13-inch 2.4GHz dual-core Intel Core i5
- MacBook Pro 13-inch 2.7GHz dual-core Intel Core i7
- MacBook Pro 13-inch 2.8GHz dual-core Intel Core i7
- MacBook Pro 15-inch 2.0GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
- MacBook Pro 15-inch 2.2GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
- MacBook Pro 15-inch 2.3GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
- MacBook Pro 15-inch 2.4GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
- MacBook Pro 15-inch 2.5GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
- MacBook Pro 17-inch 2.2GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
- MacBook Pro 17-inch 2.3GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
- MacBook Pro 17-inch 2.4GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
- MacBook Pro 17-inch 2.5GHz quad-core Intel Core i7
If you have one of these systems, then you should be able to install up to 16GB of memory if needed, which can be purchased from vendors such as Crucial or Other World Computing.
I trust this will help!

We'll it should work too for Macbook Pro 7,1 13'' 2,4 MHz. Or at least that's what they say with the OWC kit. What I don't understand is why just with that kit. That makes me think that it could fail in the future maybe with another firmware upgrade?
191. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memoryGlenn Radford Jun 19, 2013 1:30 AM in response to ersemi
My model, a 2.66 ghz i7, 15", with model identifier 6.2, can only be upgraded to 8 gb ram. The same age 13" can be upgraded to 16 gb. Some problem with the firmware and how it handles the two video cards in the larger computer. I have heard that it only required Apple to patch the firmware, but it hasn't happened yet.
192. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memorysurry355f1 Jun 19, 2013 2:58 AM in response to ersemi
Hi Ersemi,
go to OWC website put in the model details of your Mac and check what options are available. I've got the 2.66 13" MBP Mid 2010... and all good with 16GB. That being said.. the best performance gain was not the amount of RAM installed but when I switched over to an SSD replacing the original mechanical drive. The SSD with even 4GB of RAM on 10.8.3 flies like a rocket. Depending on workloads 8 or 16GB will be useful. But do yourself a favour and go for an SSD!

You might even look into the new "hybrid" drives. They have a solid-state (static RAM) drive as the primary, caching over to the physical hard drive, any files that are not being frequently accessed. This improves performance "and" gives you more space.
My issues with the RAM were when I would run "virtual systems" on my PC. When running Windows XP or LINUX, or especially Solaris, in a virtual session, the system would just begin to "BOG DOWN" big time! One reason was because I only had 4GB of RAM. The 16GB of RAM I now have is fantastic on the speed! I can be running multiple screens, and a virtual system alongside my MacOSx and it never breaks a sweat!
With VirtualBox, you can "tweak" the RAM available to a virtual system.
For instance, Windows XP can only recognize 3GB of RAM - "max". So, that's all I give it!
The others, I tweak them as needed, usually giving them 4GB, but I can actually go 8GB if I want and still have a full 8GB for "me".
I strongly urge the upgrade of the RAM ...
and just as with the many things people have been "jail breaking" the iPhone for have since been added to the iPhone repretoir (and vice versa), I think Apple will soon open up the ceiling here, understanding that there are "power users" who are now giving their hardware a second look.
194. Re: Macbook Pro (2010) 16gb memoryGlenn Radford Jun 19, 2013 11:31 AM in response to port77
I think we need to start a separate forum dealing with the issue of the 15 and 17 inch models being excluded from ram upgrade to 16 gb. It is well established that the 13" model of that era is upgradeable. Apple needs to patch the firmware for the 15 and 17 inch to allow this upgrade to the higer end models.

Numero four for Unreal the second
New chart revelations
The latest chart information arrived today from independent statistical chaps Chart-Track, with Unreal 2 entering at a disappointing number four, behind The Sims, GTA: Vice City, and The Getaway. Other big-name PC release Battlefield: The Road to Rome entered at number fourteen.
Meanwhile, new Star Wars releases Bounty Hunter and the Clone Wars, could only manage nineteenth and twenty-eighth respectively. Despite Unreal 2 being a single-platform release, one might have expected this huge sequel, one of the very biggest of the year, to have entered at number one, given the strength of the Unreal name.
We'll bring you all the latest on all the biggest games as we get it.

3M working on its own ereader device for libraries
July 10, 2011 | 11:42 am
By Chris Walters
Next month, 3M's recent investment in German ebook device company txtr will bear fruit in a pilot program in Minneapolis. TwinCities.com reports that the library system there will test 3M's new cloud-based ebook library lending service using cloud-connected kiosks and custom ereader devices that users who don't own any hardware will be able to check out.
Allowing library patrons to check out an actual e-reader does come with some security concerns. But the St. Paul libraries are comfortable with the risk.
"Our biggest focus is giving access to people who can't afford them," said Sheree Savage, a spokeswoman for the St. Paul libraries. With any library materials, security is always a concern, she said. But the 3M e-reader only can be used to read materials available from the library, so this reduces the chance that someone might walk off with it, she said.
Update 12 July 2011: I over-abbreviated this post, and left out some useful and necessary details. Here they are for future readers:
- Txtr is providing the operating system, but not the hardware, according to the article cited.
- It's the St. Paul Public Library System that's participating in the program.
You can read the full article at TwinCities.com
TARDIS mini-libraries prove libraries are bigger on the inside
Kirklees considers "nuclear option" as UK libraries holocaust continues
Morning Roundup: Accidentally going digital. Libraries react to Kindle Unlimited
ALA finds 90 percent of U.S. libraries now lend ebooks
Morning Roundup: Facebook adds Save for Later. Five things about subscriptions
They announced this back in May. Where have you been hiding?
The annct in May with txtr didn't have this detail/any word of the library application, and in fact, 3M is not using a txtr e-reader. Also, teleread needs to cite the source of the quote in this story.
Minneapolis or St. Paul? Or both? Each city has its own library system.

slides: Greatest Athletes in Central Mass History: Hudson-Oakham
Thursday, July 26, 2012
This list also includes undoubtedly the worst human being who became a great athlete in Central Mass (you'll find out why), and his brother, who owns the dubious record of worst batting average in Major League history with over 2,000 at-bats.
If there's one list you must read, this is it.
#1: Wilbert Robinson, MLB.
"Uncle Robbie" is a Hall of Fame catcher who spent 17 seasons in the major leagues with the Philadelphia A's, Baltimore Orioles, and St. Louis Cardinals.
He hit .353 in 1894 and is commonly credited as the first catcher to play directly behind the batter (most played farther back until there were two strikes).
#1: Prince Amukamara, NFL.
The All-American cornerback was born in Leominster but moved to Arizona before high school.
He established himself as one of the top defensive backs in the nation at the University of Nebraska, being chosen as the Big 12 Defensive Player of the Year as a senior.
Amukamara was chosen by the New York Giants with the No. 19 pick in the 2011 NFL draft and won the Super Bowl in his rookie season.

Runner up:
Lew Brown, MLB.
Undoubtedly one of the biggest headcases in Central Mass baseball history (although there are far worse, as you're about to find out), Brown was blacklisted during the 1882 season for "confirmed dissipation and general insubordination."
He played seven seasons in the majors with six different teams as a catcher and first baseman and hit .248 with 10 home runs and 169 RBI.
#1: David Pelletier, figure skater.
Along with his future and now ex-wife Jamie Sale, Pelletier captured the hearts of the nation when the pair were denied the Gold Medal in the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City.
French judge Marine-Reine Le Gounge said that she was pressured by the head of the French figure skating association into voting for the Russian team of Elena Berezhnaya and Anton Sikharulidze.
Both pairs eventually received gold medals.
Runner up:
Bobby Butler, NHL.
Butler ranked second in the NCAA in goals scored in 2009-10 at the University of New Hampshire, and won the Hockey East Player of the Year award in 2010.
He is currently a member of the Ottawa Senators, having played 56 games for the team in 2011-12.
#1: Howie Long, NFL.
The Hall of Fame defensive end was an eight-time Pro Bowler and Super Bowl champion with the Raiders.
Long played 13 seasons in the NFL and recorded 84 sacks. He was selected to the 1980s All-Decade team and was co-Defensive Player of the Year in 1985.
He played football, basketball and track at Milford High School and went on to star at Villanova.
#1: Ron Darling, MLB.
Darling is a New York Mets legend and graduate of St. John's in Shrewsbury.
He pitched 13 seasons with the Mets, Expos, and A's, and won the World Series title in 1986, going 15-6 with a 2.81 ERA.
Darling won 136 games in his big league career and is a current analyst with for the Mets on Sportsnet New York.
Runner up:
Ray Roach Jr., basketball, football.
Roach was an incredible athlete at Millbury, becoming the school's all-time leading scorer with 1,285 points in 1970.
He is one of five players in Central Mass history to score 50 points in a game when he did so against St. Mary's of Milford in 1970.
He also quarterbacked the football team to a 16-1-1 record in his career and holds four school passing records, including 18 career touchdown passes.
Roach went on to play quarterback at Boston University.
North Brookfield
#1: Bill Bergen, MLB.
Bergen has the unfortunate distinction of being the worst hitter in baseball history.
He somehow played 11 years in the majors despite hitting .170 for his career, the lowest average in Major League history for any player with more than 2,500 plate appearances.
Bergen lasted in the bigs because he was a defensive specialist at catcher.
He played for the Cincinnati Reds and Brooklyn Superbas/Dodgers.
North Brookfield
Runner up:
Marty Bergen, MLB.
Like his brother, Marty was considered one of the best defensive catchers in baseball. He had the unique talent of being able to throw a runner out from the crouched position, without even moving his feet.
Bergen hit .265 and helped lead the Boston Beaneaters to National League pennants in 1896 and 1897.
Still, his teammates stayed away from him due to his incredibly volatile temperament. This would prove wise, as he killed himself and murdered his entire family in 1899.
(Now, that's a headcase.)
Remarkably, he still received a vote for the Hall of Fame in 1943.
North Brookfield
Runner up:
Ricky Wheeler, basketball.
The all-time leading scorer in Worcester Polytechnic Institute history put up 1,318 career points (21.6 ppg) and finished his career with several WPI records.
Wheeler once scored 31 points in one half of basketball against Wesleyan.
He was inducted into the WPI Hall of Fame in 2004.
#1: Mark Fidrych, MLB.
Fidrych started a national sensation along the lines of "Fernandomania" or "Linsanity" in 1976.
The Algonquin graduate took over the American League, winning 19 games and posting a league-leading 2.34 ERA en route to winning the Rookie of the Year award.
But it was his personality on the mound that made him even more memorable. Fidrych would talk to himself, the baseball, and anyone else who would listen. Sometimes he would aim the ball like a dart, and throw back balls that he believed had "hits in them."
He appeared on the cover of Sports Illustrated twice that season, but a rotator cuff injury virtually ended his career in 1977.
Fidrych died in a terrible accident in 2009, when his car collapsed on him as he was working on it.
No athlete on this list was more unique.

Daniel not come home.
Linda LaPorte stood in the kitchen of her home in Pascoag, R.I., holding her cellphone. Her son's Thai girlfriend was calling from San Diego, speaking a mile a minute in fractured English.
Daniel not come home.
Linda LaPorte stood in the kitchen of her home in Pascoag, R.I., holding her cellphone. Her son's Thai girlfriend was calling from San Diego, speaking a mile a minute in fractured English.
He said call mom if he not come home.
Linda and her husband, Joseph, had called their son just days earlier to wish him a happy 27th birthday. He'd said nothing about traveling anywhere.
Yet here was his girlfriend saying he'd gone to Mexico on business with a guy named Big Daddy. And he hadn't come back.
"What she was trying to convey to me didn't make sense," Linda recalled.
Dozens of American citizens have been kidnapped and killed in Mexico in the last year. They are a small fraction of the 2,500 people, the vast majority of them Mexicans, who have been slain gangland-style. Countless others have been kidnapped for ransom.
Officials on both sides of the border say the American victims are rarely unlucky tourists. Some lived in Mexico and may have known their attackers. Others were businesspeople who crossed the border regularly and were seen as an easy source of cash. Still others were thought to be involved in drugs.
Linda didn't know any of that. All she knew was that Dan was missing.
He was the youngest of the LaPortes' three sons. The other two had married and started families. Dan still hadn't settled down. He was affectionate and fiercely loyal, but had a troublesome temper. He had few ambitions; after graduating from Burrillville High School in 2000, he got a job in a deli.
In the spring of 2005, he followed his boss to San Diego, "looking for something better," Linda recalled.
Dan was working at a restaurant and as a bouncer at clubs -- just to pay the rent, he told his family. His plan, he said, was to open a surfboard factory in Mexico. A 6-foot, 1-inch former high school football player who weighed 290 pounds, he began to take better care of himself. He developed a taste for stir fry and Thai cuisine, started working out vigorously and dropped 100 pounds.
He was finding his way in the world, or so it seemed from 3,000 miles away.
Slow down, Linda told Dan's girlfriend, T.K. Dangalongkon. What's this about Mexico?
Dan had left for the border Feb. 22, a Friday, T.K. said. He'd looked worried and told her that if he wasn't back by 10 p.m., she should call his mother. She'd know what to do.
It was Sunday morning now, and Linda had no idea what to do.
She dialed Dan's Rhode Island cellphone and left a message. She called his California cellphone but couldn't connect.
She drove to the house of one of Dan's closest friends. When was the last time he'd talked to Dan? she asked. Did he have the names or phone numbers of any of Dan's contacts in Mexico? Who's Big Daddy?
Linda went to all his friends, but got no answers. They seemed evasive.
She called T.K. back and sent her to a neighbor, who helped her file a missing-person report with the San Diego Police Department.
A tearful day blurred to night. Sleep never came.
Linda and Joe got up Monday and went to work: she as a customer service representative for the Pascoag Utility District, he for the Burrillville Public Works Department. It was hard to focus on anything but finding their son.
Linda spoke to the State Department. One of Dan's friends contacted the U.S. Consulate in Tijuana. Mexican and U.S. authorities promised to scour prisons, jails, morgues, hospitals.
Days passed. Nothing turned up.
Three of Dan's friends flew to San Diego. They shipped back nearly a dozen boxes of his belongings.
Linda scoured them for clues. She turned out every pocket and pored over the files in his computer, piles of papers. She puzzled over a bill for a shrink-wrap machine, bought in the name of the surfboard manufacturing company Dan said he was trying to start.
In his camera were photos of a trip to Mexico in 2005, riding four-wheelers and swimming in the azure ocean. That was the Mexico she knew. Some photos showed men his mother didn't recognize; two of them looked as if they might be Mexican. She e-mailed the pictures to a Mexican consular official.
After a week of searching, Linda was right where she'd started. She had no answers, just suspicions.
John Eppick had worked in Mexico for nearly a decade, finding stolen airplanes for American companies, among other assignments. Now, he was intent on retiring after more than 40 years as a private investigator. He and his wife had bought a wooded property in Missouri with a fish pond.
His wife was still in California in March when she ran into a male acquaintance. The man had a friend in Rhode Island who needed a private investigator to work across the border. Was Eppick still taking cases?
Some, his wife replied.
Linda took a shot.
"Most of the other telephone calls I refer to other investigators," Eppick said. "This particular one concerned me because I was well aware of the problems in Tijuana and Rosarito."
Eppick told the LaPortes that the investigation was likely to take a month and cost $25,000, maybe more.

A lean mindset according to Mary and Tom Poppendieck is about "developing the expertise to ask the right questions, solve the right problems, and do the right thing in the situation at hand".
Interview with Ian Hughes on Virtual Environments and Gaming for Product Development
Virtual environments can be a rich form of communication, where people can brainstorm, share and discuss ideas, or collaborate on a virtual version of a product. They can also add a new dimension to customer interaction. Games can be used to simulate situations, as an enhancement for learning and teaching complex problems.

Fifty Shades of Grey is apparently quite popular among lesbians, or so says Roseanne Barr. She talked about the book during the recording of her Comedy Central Roast, which airs on August 12th.
According to a report from Celebuzz, Roseanne was quite outspoken about the erotic book trilogy. Of course one must bear in mind she's not necessarily a person that typically comes to mind when people think eroticism, so take anything she proffers with a grain of salt.
"I know all the lesbians love it," she says of the book during the roast. "My sister-in-law loves it. She gave it to me. I haven't had time to get into it."
Roseanne Barr's ex-husband Tom Arnold even shows up, giving a rather moving tribute during the roast. And while he never mentions E.L. James's new erotic best-seller, it's clear the book might have proved useful to the couple a few decades ago.
So what's your take on Roseanne's Fifty Shades of Grey comment? Do you think lesbian couples find it even more intriguing than heterosexual couples?

Symptoms of sinusitis
Sinusitis as a term covers the inflammation, blockage and infection of any or all of a group of sinuses within the head – the paranasal sinuses.
Severity and treatment of the symptoms of sinusitis depends on which sinus is affected, whether the sinusitis is acute, chronic or recurring and if there are any additional complications.
Because the symptoms of sinusitis are be same as a number of dangerous illnesses it is always advisable to see your family doctor if symptoms persist or get worse.
What are the principal symptoms of sinusitis?
Blocked infected sinuses cause pressure headaches – dull constant aching with occasional sharp pains, where the uncomfortable feeling of pressure and pain often worsens when bending over or lying down or if the sufferer tries to relieve nasal congestion by blowing their nose. Sinus headaches may have a very similar feeling to migraine headaches and it is often difficult to tell the two apart – although sinus headaches tend to me more localised.
Facial pain and tenderness
Infected sinuses will cause facial pain and tenderness coupled with an uncomfortable feeling of pressure. This pressure will be localised to the sinus concerned, starts on a single side of the face but spreads to both sides. Maxillary sinuses cause pain / pressure in the cheek and lower eye, which can spread to the teeth. Frontal sinuses cause pain and pressure headaches above the eyes, on the brow and within the forehead. Ethmoid sinuses cause pain and pressure between and behind the eyes, with the sphenoid sinuses also causing pain in this area, with added pressure and tension at the top of the skull.
Dental pain
What starts as pain in the cheek can rapidly become toothache – the maxillary sinus (the most commonly infected sinus) regularly causes throbbing or sharp toothache within the teeth, jaw and sometimes lower jaw. A complication can be the infection moving into the tooth roots and bone.
Sufferers often become tired due to broken sleep patterns caused by pain when lying down and changing sleeping position in the night. The constant throbbing pain may also cause feelings of depression which also adds to the fatigue. Finally sinusitis regularly comes at the tail end of colds, flu and bronchial infections, at a time when the body is already run down.
Bad breath
The sinuses continually discharge mucus into the nose, mouth and throat. Once the sinus becomes blocked and infected the mucus can become green or yellow and develop an unpleasant odour, which is then exhaled as bad breath. Another reason for bad breath is in cases of sinusitis where there is dental pain, the last thing the sufferer wants to do is brush their teeth.
Loss of hearing
Sinus infections may cause inner ear problems such as dizziness, vibrating sensations or ringing in the ear (tinnitus) and reduced clarity of hearing. The inner ear can become infected causing earache and worsening symptoms as above.
Infection of the eye socket – which may result in loss of sight.
Infection of the forehead and other facial bones.
Infection of the brain.
Altered consciousness.
Blood clots within the brain.
Meningitis, coma and even death.
(click for more detail on the symptoms of infections in each sinus)
Full Symptoms of Sinusitis
- Thick colored post nasal drainage or dripping
- Nasal discharge
- Congested nasal passages
- Sneezing
- Alteration or loss of sense of smell
- Headache
- Facial pain
- Facial pressure
- Fever
- Fatigue
- Hoarseness
- Halitosis
- Cough
- Irritability
- Clicking in ears
- Stuffiness or blockage felt in ears
- "Heavy" head
- Sluggishness
When to call the doctor
If you experience any of these symptoms, you could have a medical emergency and should seek immediate medical evaluation.
Headache, fever, and soft tissue swelling over the frontal sinus can indicate an infection of the frontal bone. This is called osteomyelitis and as a complication is usually limited to children.
Ethmoid sinusitis can cause infection within the eye socket, where the eyelid may swell and become droopy. Vision changes are rare, but can be signs of serious complications. Fever and severe illness are usually present with an infected eye socket and someone with this infection may lose the ability to move the eye. Ultimately, permanent blindness may result.
Ethmoid or frontal sinusitis may cause a blood clot to form around the front and top of the face. Symptoms may be similar to those of eye socket infection with the added symptom of a dilated pupil. This condition usually affects both sides of the face.
If a person experiences mild personality changes, neck stiffness, high fever, altered consciousness, visual problems, or seizures, infection may have spread to the brain. Coma and death may follow.

Match Preview
Varga and Whitehead boost Boro Middlesbrough duo Jozsef Varga and Dean Whitehead are expected to make their debuts when they host Leicester on the opening day. Midfielder Varga joined from Debrecen in the summer and the Hungarian international should line up in the middle. Former Stoke and Sunderland man Whitehead is also likely to join him in midfield after the 31-year-old penned a two-year deal. Manager Tony Mowbray has a fully-fit squad to choose from as he plots another promotion push. David Nugent has recovered from a minor injury to give Leicester boss Nigel Pearson a fully-fit squad to choose from. Nugent, the Foxes' leading scorer last season with 16 goals, has missed the last two friendly matches with a thigh strain but the striker will be part of the squad that travels to Teesside. Zoumana Bakayogo is the only new signing at the King Power Stadium this summer. The former Tranmere defender, who joined the club on a free transfer last week, will provide Paul Konchesky with competition for the left-back spot. Striker Jermaine Beckford and central midfielder Richie Wellens were the notable departures from Pearson's squad during the close season.
