The 2CV that I drove could be picked up by 3 ppl, but it was completely gutless, had holes in the floor, the seats couldnt be bolted down and wouldnt do over 55mph. But we had a real laugh stopping and starting with the seats loose. Eventually the steering seized after about 30mins driving so we just loaded it back on the flatbed and dumped it back where we had found it in my mates scrap yard.

Mack Truck is probably the biggest thing. The most fun thing I've driven would have to be a racing go-kart at an indoor racing facility about an hour from my house. They all have full racing slicks and are loud as all hell. They change the congifuration of the course regularly, but when they have it set up as an oval you can hit an honest 75 mph on the straights(they have a speed-indicating radar detector set up at one corner). And yeah, its in a BIG warehouse.
Needless to say there is no f'ing around at that place. Full helmet and neck brace required for all runs.

Comments about butter LONDON 3 Free Nail Lacquer, Tart with a Heart, .4 fl oz:
My first time using Butter. Had really high expectations. I think I'll try the brand again, but not the glittery kind. Did not enjoy feeling like I had sandpaper on my fingernails. I tried putting another color over the top, but that didn't work to get rid of that grainy feeling. It is a "cool" polish and I will wear it again. Just got to get used to the feeling I guess.

Computer Associates - has the worm turned?
Can CA reinvent itself?
Posted in Management, 4th June 2007 10:10 GMT
Watch Now : Virtual Machine Movement with Hyper-V
Computer Associates (CA) have had a pretty miserable time over the past few years. I guess they felt like the underpaid and overworked airport staff at New York's JFK airport as I came through on a flying visit to catch up on their latest news.
Having lost a chief executive, chief salesperson, chief financial officer, and legal counsel in what has been a well documented contract backdating scandal the $4bn company has had to endure a tough couple of years.
Certainly, the reputation that CA had of being ruthless, out to screw every last penny from oppressive software supply contracts still hangs over to this day in many quarters. Certainly anyone that has been in the industry for a few years will be familiar with customer war stories and many an ex-employee has spilt the beans on how bad the setup was.
I must admit to being a CA virgin. Yes, I had followed the stories and was most amused when someone very close to me had their company acquired by CA a number of years ago and worked there for a total of three weeks before realising how awful the place was.
That aside, I thought I would follow this opportunity up as I was curious as to how a company could reinvent itself and have the balls to invite a bunch of analysts to a briefing-cum-social do to hear about the reinvention that has been going on, no holds barred.
The world according to CA is now EITM - Enterprise IT Management.
"Hmmm", I thought. This stinks of gorgonzola and sounded so 90s I was thrown into a brief reminiscence for the days of 486 processors and Windows for Workgroups.
But, hang on, CA EITM started to sound interesting.
Now CA is one of those companies that have developed or acquired a large number of products across a range of technologies. Some of these have been cash cows, others have been old dogs that were probably still on the price list as they generated some annuity income.
EITM is the strategy, announced at CA World in November 2005, designed to pull all of these disparate technologies together under a single umbrella, using web services, SOA (Services Oriented Architecture) and XML interfaces to glue them.
No problem here, I thought. The architecture is spot on and credit to the CA team for getting to grips with web services and SOA. Still, they would have been monumentally dumb for doing anything else.
IT has gone through a huge change in the past 10 or so years. Now we are seeing IT transition from being a cost heavy support role into something that may actually be useful for a business. Some, including CA, would even suggest that IT could be a "business driver". Whether that is true is open to debate and very much depends on the organisation you are talking about. I would suggest that most businesses see IT as a necessary evil and until suppliers provide robust and manageable products that work as reliably as they should many business people will remain sceptical.
And this neatly reintroduces what CA believe EITM is all about - bringing together horribly isolated solution silos along the lines of govern, manage and secure.
This strategy strongly supports the old military adage of attack being the best form of defence. Instead of sitting back and letting HP and IBM take their customer base CA have come out fighting and appear to be reinvigorated.
I am really up for giving CA a break and seeing if they can deliver EITM as the industry needs to show that it has finally grown up.

Watch Now : Virtual Machine Movement with Hyper-V
Computer Ass. Inc
Having dealt with Computer Ass. for much of my career, I can indeed say that I am among the legions who will never deal voluntarily with them again. I have had the pleasure over the last 7 years to work in shops free of CA "solutions" (among one of the better oxymorons in my IT experience).
Indeed, to a large degree they seem to have shared business pracices with other industry Asses Including RIAA and MPAA. I have enough turds to polish without needing to introduce any more.
A pig by any other name...
A better analogy is: you can sugar coat a turd but that the end of the day it's still a turd.
I've never worked for CA but have had lots of experience with their enterprise products. For the first decade I used them, they sucked... They've gotten a little better but they're nothing to write home about...
Their support blows, their licensing schemes are overly complex and if you run a wintel shop with a diverse user community, implementing some of their products can be quite disastrous...
Not so original
This is not original as its exactly the same message as the also 'newly invented' HP Software (and just about everyone else) are putting out, SOA, XML, Web Services, Anti-silo, Service Portfolio Management etc...

- Paul Krugman draws a much-needed connection between austerity politics and Naomi Klein's Shock Doctrine: What Smith didn't note, somewhat surprisingly, is that his argument is very close to Naomi Klein's Shock Doctrine, with its argument that elites systematically exploit disasters to push through neoliberal policies even if these policies are essentially irrelevant to the sources of disaster. I have to admit that I was predisposed to dislike Klein's book when it came out, probably out of professional turf-defending and whatever — but her thesis really helps explain a lot about what's going (Read more…)

excellent quality
This light fixture was perfectly excellent. I was only disappointed that my house wasn't the right place for it! It was beautiful, but my space was too small. It was extremely well-constructed with a beautiful finish. My return went very well, and I did not hesitate to order a different fixture from lightingdirect. Excellent service!

Boulder Design Advisory Board (BDAB)The BDAB is a City Council-appointed board consisting of five Boulder residents. Currently, several members have professional experience in the areas of architecture, landscape architecture, urban design and community development.
The Boulder Design Advisory Board (BDAB) reviews projects located in the Downtown Area that are valued over $25,000 and involve the construction of a new building or exterior work on an existing building. The board provides comments to persons responsible for their design and development and assures compliance with the most recent Downtown Urban Design Plan. The BDAB also reviews projects that require a discretionary review, pursuant to chapter 9-2, and advises on amendments to the most recent Downtown Urban Design Plan. In addition, if its opinion is requested by the City Manager, Planning Board or City Council, the board reviews projects located outside of the Downtown to encourage thoughtful, well-designed development projects that are sensitive to the existing character of an area or the character established by adopted design guidelines or plans for the area. Scheduling a design review with BDAB is mandatory and is the responsibility of the property owner, developer or their representative. In general, a meeting should be scheduled before a formal application is submitted to the city. Locally-designated landmark buildings are the only exception and are reviewed by the Landmarks Board (LB). In addition, LB may act in an advisory capacity to BDAB for issues related to projects that are of historic significance but are not officially landmarked. The board uses the following guidelines as references:
Board MeetingsThe Boulder Design Advisory Board generally meets on the second Wednesday of each month at 4 p.m. in the Municipal Building Lobby, 1777 Broadway.

[Editorial] From ROCKY to Cocky: The Legend of Visceral Games
February 16th, 2011 Dan HemsathTen years is a long time. To survive in a highly competitive environment, you need tenacity. Electronic Arts Redwood Shores (EARS, to some) has been producing games for ten years now in 2011, starting with James Bond 007: Agent under Fire. Their pedigree of games had been composed of licensed properties, including James Bond, Lord of the Rings, and The Simpsons. As is often the case with licensed properties in the realm of videogames, this safe – but uninspired – approach to game-making is often a necessary evil; licensed properties sell (keeping food on the table for the hard-working game-makers) but are characteristically meet with mediocre reviews and fade into the darker corridors of gaming history.
Then came a change in leadership at Electronic Arts: in February 2007, then-CEO Larry Probst stepped down, and his handpicked successor, John Riccitiello, took the reins. The games published by EA had been "under fire" for some time, many citing that they simply didn't meet expected quality standards. The brand was in danger. Although it was in 2006 when EA announced it intended to produce more intellectual properties (IPs), the actualization of the promise would take time. One game – originally in development for the Xbox – would soon find itself at that mythic convergence of critical and commercial success… a game that would "make EA whole" in the eyes of action-horror enthusiasts.
In September 2007, Dead Space was announced. Shockingly dark and viciously bloody, the game hinted at a twisted future – one of terrors ripped from the annals of sci-fi horror classics such as Alien and Event Horizon. The game grew a following, and EA Redwood Shores fed their fans with a sophisticated pre-release multimedia marketing campaign, including six issues of a comic book mini-series and a website with supplemental content called "No Known Survivors." However, in September 2008, Dead Space community manager Andrew Green claimed that the title had been completely banned in Germany, Japan, and China. This was a lie. Shortly after the announcement, it was revealed that this was merely a marketing ploy, intended to insinuate that the game was so truly horrifying, that it was simply "too much horror" for the aforementioned countries. This was to be the beginning of a darker legacy for EA Redwood Shores, one of artificially generated hype in the guise of an "attack" on their own product.
Dead Space was a success. With a Metascore of 89/88/86 (360/PS3/PC) and two million copies sold as of August 2010, it has thrived in the difficult gamescape of IPs, where balancing creativity and clever design with profitability can mean the difference between having a job tomorrow or not, especially at the time of the 2008 economic crisis. Like a modern-day David and Goliath story, DS had found itself a fervent following, and its team of hard-working developers must have been truly satisfied at their victory. One could almost hear "The Eye of the Tiger" playing somewhere distant…
This calls for a celebration – or a change in name, at least. The lengthy name of EA Redwood Shores would henceforth don the new mantle of "Visceral Games," and, with it, a commitment to "action, intensity, [and] excellence." Furthermore, they did not simply rest on their laurels; Visceral Games would continue to produce games in 2009, namely The Godfather II and Dead Space: Extraction. (Godfather II still managed to ruffle some feathers by its inclusion of brass knuckles sent to several members of the gaming press – an illegal item in some states.) While these games did not amount to the same caliber of success as DS, Visceral was about to unleash the floodgates of unparalleled graphic content and questionable taste with their "loose" adaptation of Dante's Inferno in early 2010.
And yet, a significant amount of time prior to the launch of Inferno, a strange thing happened: around 20 protesters appeared at the Entertainment Electronic Expo event. Claiming to be from "a church" in Ventura County, these "protestors" decried the game as sacrilegious, even condemning EA as the anti-Christ. Unsurprisingly, many saw through this thinly-veiled hoax, perhaps because the game was still fairly unknown, making the protests more confusing than anything; shortly afterward, Electronic Arts spokeswoman Tammy Schachter confirmed the incident was a hoax. But Dante's Inferno – and the extensive pre-release viral campaign that was to follow – was only getting warmed up…
Inferno seemed to positively revel in its own self-generated controversy – it was an example of a game determined to push buttons outside of its own context-sensitive environment. Electronic Arts partnered with GameStop for an event held on September 9th, 2009, offering customers who pre-ordered Dante's Inferno a $6.66 discount. They even sent unsolicited checks to videogame reviewers of $200, with a note describing the nature of "greed"; should they redeem the check, their sin would have "consequences." The International Nanny Association even attempted to (genuinely) boycott the game, due to the inclusion of an achievement earned for slaying numerous "child-like" demons, an achievement called "Bad Nanny." Between these stunts, the websites featuring fake games and ads that would result in accusing the participant of various sins, and a quirky Super Bowl commercial featuring Bill Withers's "Ain't No Sunshine," the marketing campaign surrounding Dante's Inferno was reminiscent of a spoiled child "acting up," and that old adage that "there's no such thing as bad publicity" was becoming a new mantra for Visceral.
Inferno would score moderately amongst fans and critics both. Whether the games boundary-ravaging content was a factor to its benefit or detriment is difficult to pinpoint; it certainly faired well enough with regards to sales in its first month, though its legacy is a mixed one. Had Visceral gone too far? Was it trying to be the game whispered amongst parents, as they warned one another of its potential for corrupting their children? Was it coveting that role Grand Theft Auto (still) has in this capacity? It's all conjecture, sure, but Visceral Games had made a bold decision that seemed to scoff in the face of anti-videogame legislative fear-mongers like Senator Leland Yee… or, regrettably, endow them with additional ammunition.
Shortly after Dante's Inferno launched, Dead Space 2 was announced. It was heralded as one of the most highly anticipated titles at E3 2010. The technical prowess and design had truly evolved, with stylish zero-g combat, exciting new monsters, and highly polished environments and characters. The IP that had put Visceral Games on every core gamers' radar was back. Visceral even created a downloadable game to flesh out "The Sprawl," the location featured in DS2, called Dead Space: Ignition. Dead Space 2 was a game that was well-known to its fans months before launch, and would almost assuredly be a success. But that wasn't enough.
"Your Mom Hates Dead Space 2." Just when you thought it was safe to release a game without negative phantom-hype…
Possessed of questionable verisimilitude, "Your Mom Hates Dead Space 2" was a series of web and television advertisements for DS2, portraying a selection of roughly 200 women selected for their "conservative values and lack of familiarity with videogames". They were exposed to some of the most graphic scenes in the game – without context, presumably – and their reactions were recorded. Expectedly, the "moms" reacted with disgust and shock. But the intention of the campaign – to drum up excitement over a product so horrifying that it must be cool, because mom hates it – backfired. The campaign was decried as sexist, ageist, and simply missing its mark. By suggesting that "moms" hate this game, it implies that the game's audience must be of an age where mom's approval matters; as a Mature-rated game (ages 17+), this seems wildly inappropriate, as the only people who should be playing this game should have little concern whether Mom hates the game or not. The portrayal of moms (read: older women) as being ignorant and/or judgmental of the content of the game as a whole based on limited exposure is also confusing. Mary Elizabeth Williams puts it succinctly: "The videogame's campaign hinges on a unique premise – one that ignores how much the culture of gaming has changed."
So what legend is it that Visceral Games is attempting to found? Surely their work speaks for itself. Dead Space is one of the premier IPs in the modern gamescape, and even Dante's Inferno is a startling adventure game that forces its player to experience the horrors of Hell with its uncomfortable subject matter. And yet, their continued attempt to draw attention to their work through bizarre – and somewhat irresponsible – fabricated hype only seems to detract from their impressive catalog of games since they began to twinkle as a bright star in the world of game development with DS. Can Visceral learn to simply accept that their body of work is strong enough to stand on its own, or will they continue to degrade themselves by exploiting the popular animosity held that violent videogames are a "threat to our children"? To do this, they will have to be truly confident and assured in their amazing abilities as developers, and not fall prey to the sin of just being "cocky."

Fourth of July books for kids
I love children's literature. Actually, I love all kinds of books, but I particularly love books that will grab the attention of my kids. I also love to collect books that have a common theme. (My newly published book, Let the Adventure Begin! Theme Nights for Families with Young Children, contains lists of book suggestions for 56 themes.)
My love for kiddy lit spurred me on to add a new feature to my blog. Every Tuesday will now be "Terrific Tales Tuesday," and the blog post will include either book lists (usually based on a theme), or a book with an activity suggestion.
With the Fourth of July holiday fast approaching, I decided to start my first Terrific Tales Tuesday with a list of kids' books that are about or include Fourth of July celebrations. I hope you can add some of these books to your holiday celebration!

pec injections aren't bad at all
So "hypothetically speaking" I have a couple questions on injecting. So let's say that Saturday I did 1/3cc of Sustanon injected bilaterally into each glute top outer quarter, then Monday I did the same 1/3cc injected bilaterally into glutes about an inch below the prior injection site. After the injection on saturday it felt pretty fine for 2 days it was really smooth but after I hit them on Monday again man are the sore. My glutes are somewhat swollen and tender at the site is this okay, should I expect pain from hitting them bilaterally that close together? It just kinda worried me when they seemed to have a slight "swollen feeling" but I figured I just made a no no and should've picked a different body part haha. I was thinking about doing pecs, I definately have enough meat there it's pretty thick. So who's done pec injections and how was it, I don't do chest again until Monday so should I be good by then if I hit them today? Thanks guys I really appreciate any knowledge you can send my way.
pec injections aren't bad at all

i love delts 100% painless and no soreness at all .but now quads i can not walk for 4 days after idk.
That's what I'm worried about. I'm trying to work into an injection schedule that fits well into my workout routine. Like for instance, today is cardio and tomorrow is legs so I'd rather hit my upper body "like chest" in the middle of the week to save my legs and that way by the time chest rolls around on Monday or Tuesday that soreness should be g2g and I can hit Glutes on Monday and have legs be ready by thursday ya know. I'm still not sure which part I wanna hit on Friday though. I'm thinkin Monday-Glutes, Wednesday-Pecs, and maybe do Traps Friday, I'm not sure, I've heard trap injects are g2g but I'm always nervous to hit new spots.
I don't think you're getting any benefit from Bi-laterally injecting sustanon.... Save yourself the soreness and do it all in the same shot.
Traps seem easy until you actually try to do the injection, then your just too close to your face to work!!!! If you can do it, go for it, they pop out and are all muscle.
Be sure to aspirate.
Aspirating is a waste of time try delts quads and tris that 3ml in just your eod is asking for trouble. You will get major knots of scar tissue and possible infections. Why are you doing 3ml of Sus eod anyway?

Hillsboro Parks & Recreation (HP&R), in partnership with Metro and the Trust for Public Land, completed the purchase of the 42-acre former Orenco Woods Golf Course in December 2011. This natural resource jewel, currently home to coyotes, frogs, hawks and other wildlife, is an ideal location for a nature park. The property, north of Quatama Road and west of Cornelius Pass, next to Orenco Elementary, has been largely unused in the six years since the golf course closed.
The Trust for Public Land (TPL) negotiated and purchased the parcel for $4 million from US Bank, and the City and Metro then purchased it from TPL. The City funded roughly half of the purchase price from parks system development charges in combination with its allocation of the local share of the Metro Green Spaces Bond. The remainder of the funding came from Metro through the voter-approved Natural Areas Program. Metro and the City co-own the property and Hillsboro Parks & Recreation will manage the park. An adjacent 11 acres that were already owned by the City will be combined with the recently purchased property to form the new park. Approximately 10 acres in the SE corner of the site will be sold to help offset the cost of planning and developing the Orenco Woods Nature Park.
A master planning process for the new Orenco Woods Nature Park began in September 2012, with the public invited to learn about the site and enjoy a tour. In November, the planning team presented a variety of alternative concept plans. On April 24, the draft master plan was presented to the public at an open house. Comments on the draft master plan are encouraged and should be submitted by Wednesday, May 8, 2013. Submit comments here.
If you would like to be kept informed about the master planning process for Orenco Woods Nature Park and opportunities to provide input, sign up for our e-list.
Construction at Shute Park began in September 2012, and is anticipated to wrap up by early 2013.
The improvements at Shute Park include playground renovation, which is a project that has been funded by the Washington County Community Development Block Grant Program, and a new picnic shelter and overflow parking renovation, which have funding from a Land & Water Conservation Fund grant.
The existing main playground area will have new play equipment, with a nature theme that will work well with the character of Shute Park, and will provide new play experiences, including a sand and water feature. The layout will have separate play areas and equipment for both 2-5 years as well as 5-12 years, which will improve enjoyment for all ages of children.
The new shelter will offer picnicking in a quiet area of the park, with its own lawn space for games and activities. The park has only one other picnic shelter, which is very popular. This will be a nice alternative, and will attract use to this currently under-utilized area of the park.
The grass parking area south of the Senior Center will be turned into a porous paving parking area, and will provide for year round parking.
We will also be adding benches, trash receptacles, barbeques, and a drinking fountain. All of the new site furniture will match what is already in the park.

Rock Creek Trail Mid-Block Crossing on Evergreen Parkway
A project to install a fully signalized crosswalk on Evergreen Parkway at the City of Hillsboro's Rock Creek Regional Trail entrances on Evergreen Parkway between Aloclek Drive and John Olsen Avenue was completed in late December. The crosswalk now provides a safe bicycle and pedestrian crossing for trail users.
This project is a partnership between Washington County's Department of Land Use and Transportation, Oregon Department of Transportation and the City of Hillsboro Parks and Recreation Department. The project is funded through the Oregon Department of Transportation's Pedestrian and Bicycle Program. View a press release with more information here.
The Rock Creek Trail is a bike / pedestrian trail now extends from Orchard Park to the north side of US 26 and Rock Creek Blvd. The trail is considered the primary component of the City's Trail Master Plan, and provides scenic views of the Rock Creek Greenway. With help from a $1.275 million federal grant, the trail extension south to NW Wilkins Street is complete. The extension adds a distance of about two-thirds of a mile to the existing trail.
The Design Option phase was initiated in 2009, and resulted in the selection of a preferred alignment which places the majority of the trail on the west side of the creek. This alignment was selected as it was preferred in public feedback during the planning phase and will be less expensive to construct and maintain. It has a greater setback from the creek and from adjoining residential properties, providing for improved habitat and privacy values.The trail is a paved 10' wide surface and designed in accordance with federal standards for accessibility as well as pedestrian and bicycle safety. The majority of the trail is asphalt, with 1 bridge crossing over the creek and connecting boardwalk. Some scenic overlooks were developed along the trail route. The trail provides a connection to NW Cherry Lane, enabling trail users to continue west toward Cornelius Pass Road. The trail ends at NW Wilkins Street, and includes a pedestrian activated signal to facilitate crossing the street to sidewalks or bike lanes on the south side of NW Wilkins. The ultimate vision for the trail is to extend from US 26 in the north all the way to the Tualatin River in the south part of Hillsboro. Presently, the trail extends from just north of US 26 south to Orchard Park.
This drawing shows the profile of the typical trail section (upper right hand corner) and the elegant profile of the bridge and boardwalk where it crosses Rock Creek, going from the Cherry Lane site as it heads toward Wilkins, giving users the feeling of being in a treehouse as the trail gently slopes toward the creek. The colors in the drawing indicate both the normal ordinary high water level (OHW) and the 100 year flood elevation so the viewer can see that the boardwalk is above flood levels.
