What's in a name? The mystery and explanation of #BAON
What's in a name? The mystery and explanation of #BAON
An 1870 oil painting by Ford Madox Brown
depicting Romeo and Juliet's famous balcony scene
#BAON. You may have seen the hashtag pop up recently in regards to Thorns FC tweets. What does it stand for? What does it represent?
Much like #RCTID, #BAON has taken on an organic, fan-driven evolution. It grew out of a desire to sometimes separate fans' Thorns Twitter conversations from their Timbers ones. They can certainly overlap and intersect, but on occasion, one is one and one is the other.
But back to #BAON, what's in a name?
Exactly. For sharp-eyed literate Shakespeare academics, #BAON stands for "By Any Other Name" and is a snippet of a monologue from Romeo and Juliet's Act II, Scene 2. Romeo, scion of the Montague family has fallen for Juliet, maiden of the sworn enemy Capulets. The famous scene is set is the evening when Romeo comes upon Juliet high atop her balcony. Hidden from her view, he speaks his famous "But soft, what light through yonder window breaks," monologue singing the praises of her beauty. Her response, which he listens to, laments the fate that should see them be from separated warring families. Were Romeo not a Montague in name, she figures, all her problems would be solved.
What's Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O! Be some other name:
What's in a name? That which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name;
And for that name, which is no part of thee,
Take all myself.
In essence, she's saying, "It's not the name that should matter, it's what's inside that counts." Juliet is pining for the man, not the name—a romantic wish to be sure.
But for Portland Thorns FC, with their intertwining language and identity with roses and the Rose City being key, the meaning is expanded to become less about the name on the back of the shirt, and more about all being what's inside the player—the quality of the play and the drive to win.
So be it #BAON or #RCTID, now you'll know where to track your Portland soccer teams' online chatter and discussion.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
Perhaps another railroader will offer more objective enlighenment than I. I am nearing the end of my RR career as a locomotive engineer. Never in my foggiest dreams did I imagine the hatred and loathing I would be feeling for the RR industry at this point in my life. Many past generations of railroaders admitted that they actually looked foreword to leaving home and going to work. For the majority of my career I too felt this way.
Things have deteriorated so quickly and dramatically that I just don't know where to begin with my complaints. Kent, the RR and airline lifestyle seem to be parallel. Let this be a kindly warning for you; the RR's are hell bent to operate their trains with single man crews. 10,000 ton trains moving at 70+ mph with just one human onboard to monitor the computers. Hope he/she is well rested and has a stable homelife.

We will welcome the team and the Dominator 2 back to our dealership on Thursday August 22nd from 12-3pm at Todd Wenzel GMC! Click here for directions. In the meantime you can view more Storm Chasers photos at our Todd Wenzel Automotive Facebook Page.
America's favorite storm team at Todd Wenzel Buick GMC Todd Wenzel GMC is happy to be the official vehicle partner of the Dominator Team- Reed Timmer, Chris Chittick, and Joel Taylor – from the Discovery Channel's popular series, Storm Chasers, and founders of TornadoVideos.net. We provided the TVN team with a 2011 Yukon XL, which will soon become the "Dominator 2" tornado-chasing and storm research vehicle. Timmer currently drives a modified 2008 Chevy Tahoe, best known as "The Dominator". "We felt this partnership was a natural fit," Todd Wenzel said. "Reed and Chris are from Grand Rapids, and they have had great success chasing extreme storms in a GM product. We are excited to be a local partner and keep them in another solid, dependable vehicle." Timmer and Chittick, together with their vehicle modification team, picked up the Yukon XL on February 3 at Todd Wenzel Buick GMC in Grand Rapids.
Building the Dominator 2
Modifications included a state-of-the art armored shell to protect it, and passengers, from 100+ MPH winds and flying debris. In addition, they will attach various radars and probes to help them collect important data and insight into the destructive twisters they eagerly drive into.
Watch the videos below to see the transformation of the Yukon XL into the ultimate storm chasing machine!

Best Lunch in Old Town Pasadena?
oh geez, i worked out there for years and was hard pressed to find anything other than drinking places in Old Pas. Despite having a lot of restaurants, there's just a better version of each type of cuisine elsewhere! Tibet Nepal House is someplace to try, I guess it's more of an experiment to find out if you like Tibetan food. The Chicken Place on the south side of Colorado next to Raymond is someplace we got takeout, but it's not out of the ordinary, just chowish. The half-order of chicken dark meat wasn't anything special but it came with a green sauce that was really tasty, and an iceberg lettuce salad with another tasty japanese mustard dressing. That was the best bargain on the block. I guess you could get sandwiches at Santorini and some of the gelato downstairs.
If you're willing to give up on Old Pas, the eating at Lake and Colorado is significantly better. I used to catch lunch at Euro Pane, technically a bakery, but she had great sandwiches and coffee and desserts. It's still my favorite spot in all of Pasadena. Celestino's on Lake was a "fine dining Italian" kind of lunch, and there was a hotpot place in the same complex as Trader Joe's. It might be closed now.
Chado Tea Room
Tasty tomato basil soup, honey/poppy seed/strawberry/lettuce salad, caramel tea.Tutti Gelati
Cinnamon and peanut butter are the flavors I have to get every time.Gyu-Kaku

Father Nature
Gelato di Roma
Sushi Roku
Yujean Kang's
Wokano -
If you'd like a "different" experience, you might want to look into lunch at Famima on Raymond, just north of Colorado (http://www.famima-usa.com/index.html) - sandwiches, soups, pastries, Japanese, Chinese - all sold in what feels like an upscale 7-11. It's pretty interesting and there's some good food, though I've not had anything great.
25 N Raymond Ave, Pasadena, CA 91103-
re: ElsieDee
I've had the (unfortunate) occasion to try some of the warm Famima offerings (the one in downtown LA) and came away rather unimpressed.
Don't know about the soups or sandwiches, but the boas and that chicken curry bread were rather awful, sort of reminded me of hospital cafeteria food straight from the depths of Sysco.
Perhaps the other stuff is good, but the ones I tried were most definitely not.
re: ipsedixit
Ah, two of the things I haven't tried. I've had a couple of decent sandwiches - not the be all, end all of sandwiches, but decent. And I've tried a couple of their soups and enjoyed them. Haven't tried the sushi or dumplings - those are things where I'm convinced that fresh is the way to go. I guess, for me, at least part of the appeal is the novelty of the place.
re: ipsedixit
I like Famima, and I go there often, partly due to convenience. The prices are high for some items, but the food is decent.
I like the iced tea that they have called "Dave," the mixed fruit plates and the salads that they have. :)
The address below is for the Famima in the Pasadena Playhouse District. There's also one in Old Town (already posted by ElsieDee). :)
I like Saigon Noodle for pho in Old Town. The service is fast, and the food is decent.

10 E Union St, Arroyo Parkway
Pasadena 91103
Azeen's Afghani Restaurant
110 E Union St, Pasadena, CA 91103-
re: badseed
I am no expert on Afghani food, but I had lunch last Tuesday at this restaurant, and came away underwhelmed. Perhaps my expectations were unrealistically high.
We had the KABOB-E-GOUSFAND (Tender cubes of lamb) for $12.90. It came with pallaw (rice pullao) and their bread. Four chunks of marinated grilled lamb, but for $13 for lunch it was NOT a good value.
We also had HOUSE COMBINATION PLATTER (atter of Aushak, Sambosa, Bulanee) for $8.90. All three components were fine, but nothing to write home about. The Sambosa (equivalent to Indian samosa - triangular turnovers) had more chickpea paste than ground beef. The Aushak (leef and scallion filled pancakes topped with yogurt and meat sauce) was also fine, but much better scallion pancakes can be had in the Chinese restaurants in Monterey Park/Alhambra. The Bulanee (turnover filled with leek, scallions and herbs) was similar to the Sambosa in appearance, slightly different in taste.
We also ordered a side dish of GULPI (Stew of cauliflower cooked with ginger onions and tomatoes) for $3.90. While competently done, it was so similar to the generic cauliflower subzi at most Indian restaurant buffet lunches, that it was mostly wasted.
The total bill for 2 came to $32 - NOT a good value in my personal opinion.
re: browndoggie
For my personal taste, Tibet Nepal House was the single worst Indian restaurant I have tasted in 22 years in LA. (Close to it is the fast food buffet at the old location of Ambala Dhaba - now Ambala Express in Cerritos)
For my money, one of the best lunch deals is Yujean Kang's in Old Town Pasadena (Raymond, between Union and Holly).
re: suvro
"For my personal taste, Tibet Nepal House was the single worst Indian restaurant I have tasted in 22 years in LA."
But Tibet Nepal House doesn't serve Indian food. They serve Tibetan and Nepalese dishes. There's some cross-over in the cuisines (Tibetan, Nepalese, and northern Indian), but it's unfair to say that a place is "worst" when you're comparing it to a different cuisine.
I really like Tibet Nepal House and I like some of the Tibetan and Nepalese foods - do I like everything on the menu? Nope. But I have no problem finding all sorts of tasty dishes to expand my palate while dining there.
Tibet Nepal House
36 E. Holly Street, Pasadena, CA 91103
re: Cecilbee
First time I went there was for dessert, it took an hour to get our table but it was DEFINITELY worth it! Went again for dinner and not so great. Service was great (ex: clearing the plate when everyones done.. i hate it when restaurants don't know the basics) and the waitresses were extra friendly. I ordered the steak and frites but it was not what i expected.... The garlic fries were good but the steak was over cooked. I ordered it medium rare and it was cooked medium well. It wasn't "melt in your mouth" perfect either. Its a filet mignon so it's pretty hard to screw that up, but they managed to. I'm hoping the food was bad because we went at a really busy time (First time i went they didn't take any customers because kitchen was backed up).
Theres a great open face sandwich next to kabuki. It's a bit pricey for sandwiches but good ingrediets = good food.

DKs are trickier. I could see them moving the Improved presences to be lower in the trees though, and making Improved Frost Presence the chosen talent. This would mean that DPS DKs could potentially grab it, but they would be giving up talent points that could be spent on DPS. Alternatively, the bonuses could be applied through Mastery points.

Growth for 5th Leading International Trade Fair for Industrial Coating Technology from 8 through 11 April 2014 in Karlsruhe
In Great Demand: Booth Floor space at PaintExpo 2014
2 months before the next PaintExpo, 460 exhibitors from 25 countries have already made firm bookings for their booth locations. With more than 134,500 square feet, occupied net floor space already amounts more than 120% of all floor space utilised at the event in 2012. This great demand of companies from Europe, America and Asia confirms the significance attributed to PaintExpo as a global presentation and procurement platform by suppliers from all areas of industrial coating technology.
PaintExpo's recipe for success is its exclusive focus on industrial coating technology. The offerings presented by the leading international trade fair within this field are more comprehensive and market-oriented than anywhere else in the world – ranging from pre-treatment to final inspection. As a result, it's the number one information and procurement platform for users around the globe. Consequently, more than 8000 expert visitors from 63 countries travelled to Karlsruhe to attend the event in 2012. Most of them brought concrete tasks and projects along with them.

Detailed Description:
The purpose of this study is to determine the role of hypoxia inducible factor (HIF)-2a on the production of inflammatory cytokines that lead to reflux esophagitis.
Condition | Intervention |
Esophagitis Reflux Esophagitis Gastroesophageal Reflux Disease |
Other: Cessation of Acid Suppressing Medications |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Intervention Model: Single Group Assignment Masking: Open Label Primary Purpose: Basic Science |
Official Title: | The Role of HIF-2a in the Pathogenesis of Reflux Esophagitis |
Resource links provided by NLM:
Further study details as provided by Dallas VA Medical Center:
Primary Outcome Measures:
- change in esophageal inflammation from baseline to 14 days [ Time Frame: day 0 and day 14 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]inflammation of the squamous esophageal mucosa will be measured at baseline and at 14 days
Secondary Outcome Measures:
- change in HIF-2a levels from baseline to 14 days [ Time Frame: day 0 and day 14 ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Amount of HIF-2a present will be measured at baseline and at 14 days
Estimated Enrollment: | 15 |
Study Start Date: | February 2013 |
Estimated Study Completion Date: | June 2014 |
Estimated Primary Completion Date: | January 2014 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
Arms | Assigned Interventions |
Experimental: Reflux Patients
Patients with reflux and a prior history of reflux esophagitis are being enrolled. The intervention is cessation of acid-suppressing medications.
Other: Cessation of Acid Suppressing Medications
Acid-suppressing medications are stopped for all participants the day after baseline assessment. Subsequent evaluations performed while participant is not on acid-suppressing medications.
Detailed Description:
Reflux esophagitis is thought to be caused by gastric acid that refluxes into the esophagus, causing injury. Newer data suggest that reflux of gastric juice into the esophagus stimulates HIF-2a, which increases production of inflammatory cytokines. These cytokines are thought to lead to reflux esophagitis. The investigators plan to study the relationship of HIF-2a to inflammatory cytokines in patients with known gastroesophageal reflux disease and reflux esophagitis.

I have a little PS script that Buck Wooody posted a while back. I use it to generate a refreshed list of registered servers in a given server group. I would like to add the Custom Color property to the script but haven't been able to find it anywhere. Any help would be appreciated. This is the script:

Answering separately since this is a complete other solution but you can install SSMS Tools pack (its free) and get that same functionality without having to code at all. I have the tools pack. It colors the Query just under the tab and colors are different for each query. The Custom Color on the Connect property is the connection information at the bottom of the Query. I have setting up a color for Production servers (red), a color for Dev servers (green).

I found this same code on Bob Beauchemin's blog. Anyway, since you're creating a registration item, you should be able to get your new registration as an object immediately after you create it: $srv = get-item SERVERNAME; Once you have this object, you can then theoretically use it's methods to change it's properties through SMO: $srv.set_UseCustomConnectionColor($True); $srv.set_CustomConnectionColorArgb(-16711936); --I took the values for these functions from an existing registration I made in SSMS. The ColorArgb is supposed to be green. However, Bob's note at the bottom of his blog post about the changes made in PowerShell not showing up immediately in SSMS seem to be the case whenever I test. In fact, I can never seem to get the changes to show up in SSMS...ever. I'm happy to be proven wrong, but my guess is that the new-item cmdlet doesn't quite make the Registration properly enough that you can modify it's properties through SMO. More testing: I notice that those properties, UseCustomConnect ionColor and CustomConnectionColorArgb, have reset back to their defaults (False and 0, respectively) once I leave PowerShell and then restart PowerShell.

The origins of Pastificio d'Apuzzo trace all the way back to 1848 in the small town of Gragnano, where Giuseppe d'Apuzzo began his business of handcrafted pasta production. In 1902, the business was passed down to his youngest son, Giuseppe junior, who modernized the production of pasta by establishing the first...

Frequently asked questions-Storage Encryption FAQ
Storage encryption FAQ-Frequently asked questions <<previous|next>> :Is encryption required for compliance with current privacy and security laws?FAQ:
What are some common mistakes and oversights when implementing storage encryption?
Also, in most networks that I'm seeing, people don't have a clue as to what information they actually have. They also don't have a clue where it's stored or what security risks it's up against. So, if they don't know this stuff, they can't reasonably know what needs to be protected. I think the assumption is that everything that is sensitive is on servers or protected storage so there's not that much to worry about. This is wrong. I'm seeing vulnerabilities in these areas all the time. In any given network today, there are megabytes, if not gigabytes, of files scattered all across different hard drives and storage systems within the network. I think sensitive information is everywhere across the network, it's unprotected, and it's waiting to be compromised. And, a lot of people are oblivious to it in many cases.
Check out the entire Storage Encryption FAQ guide.

Saint Benjamin the Deacon
Deacon. Imprisoned for a year for his faith, he was released on condition that he never speak about Christianity where he could be heard by any of the royal court. Benjamin then became a street preacher, proclaiming the word any place he could find people. For his obstinate evangelization during the persecutions of king Varanes, he was arrested, tortured and martyred.

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) - Texas A&M followed its big win at Kentucky with two straight losses, and the young team is trying to get back on track when it travels to LSU on Wednesday.
The Aggies need to string some wins together in Southeastern Conference play to avoid missing the NCAA tournament for the second straight year.
Second-year coach Billy Kennedy says that his goal every season is to make the tournament. He says reaching it this year is going to be difficult.
Texas A&M is trying to bounce back from last year's 14-18 season, which broke a streak of six straight appearances in the NCAA tournament. Kennedy hopes the team, which has only three seniors, can become more consistent as the season progresses.

THE HERALD Blitzkreig to Be Staged at Fort Sheridan Defense against the mechanized forces of modern blitzkreig will be demonstrated in graphic fashion by 6,000 soldiers in a huge military show, October 31 and November 1 and 2 at Fort Sheriidan, in which men from Maywood, pVIelrose Park and Forest Park will participate. Anti-aircraft guns will send burst after burst into the air, powerful pencils of light from the 800 million candlepower searchlights will sweep the sky, thousands of men will march to martial music, and all types of military equipment vvill be on exhibit for close inspection by the public. "This will be the largest show of its kind ever presented in the midwest, and a crowd of more than 50,000 persons is expected," Col. F. C. Rogers, commanding Fort Sheridan, said today. "It will afford our citizens a rare chance to see the modern army at close range." Parades will be presented twice daily at 2 p.m. and 8 p.m. on the parade ground, with participation by thousands of soldiers, most of them hardened and experienced after engaging in the recent army maneuvers in the south. The crowd will be given an opportunity then to view the exhibits, set up and manned by picked squads capable of answering questions about the material in their charge. These displays will include the 3-inch anti-aircraft guns, the 37- millimeter anti-aircraft and antitank guns, the .30 and .50 calibre anti - aircraft machine guns, searchlights, sound locaters, all types of army trucks including "jeeps" and "blitzbuggies," post hole digger, field kitchen, tents and all types of signal equipment such as radio and teletype. Firing of the guns is scheduled next from the beach below Gordon Johnston field near the south end of Fort Sheridan. Tracer bullets will he used in the 37- millimeter guns which fire 120 rounds a minute, the .50 calibre machine guns which can fire four miles straight upward and the .30 calibre machine guns. Searchlight demonstrations at both the parade ground and beach will follow the night parades. Proceeds of the 50 cent admission charge, which includes 5 cents tax, will be devoted to the Army Relief society, formed by civilian women to care for the families of deceased soldiers. Boogie Woogie Boy to Have His Day The Sixth Corps Area Bugle contest will be conducted Sunday, November 2, it was announced this week by Major General J. M.

BARTSCH PETROLEUM CO. GENERAL OFFICES FOREST PARK. ILU Cpl. Nelson to Attend Army Training School The biggest step in his army career loomed today for Corporal Charles J, Nelson, Scott Field, who by virtue of excellence in character, training, and experience has been selected to attend the army's Officer Training school, according to Col. Wolcott P. Hayes, commandant at Scott Field. Corporal Nelson is the son of Mrs. Bethia Nelson, 910 South 10th avenue Maywood. Corporal Nelson, a member of Headquarters and Headquarters Squadron, 7th Air Base group, was notified of his appointment and given orders to proceed to his new pct immediately. He will start his training October 22 at Fort Belvoir, Va., in a course which will bring him a commission as 2nd lieutenant in the Engineering Corps. Before being called into the army last February, Corporal Nelson was employed on the editorial staff of the Joliet Herald News, Joliet, 111., and at Scott Field was appointed non-commissioned officer in charge of the post Public Relations office. He is a graduate of Northwestern university. Possibility of attending Officer Training school is in keeping with the policy of America's new army of offering opportunities to deserving men from the ranks. The champion buglers from Fort Sheridan, Fort Custer, Fort Brady, Camp Grant, Scott Field and the Savanna Ordnance Depot will take part in the contest. Local contests are now being conducted to determine these local winners. The Corps Area champion will be presented with a bugle as a symbol of his prowess. Women Here to Knit for Army-Navy Join the Sweater-a-Month club! This is the plea of the Qtizens committee for the Army and Navy, Inc., enlisting American women here in a regior-wide drive to knit sweaters for the United States soldiers. Already thousands of American women, representing every strata of society, have pledged themselves to knit a sweater each month for the nation's men in uniform. Membership in this new band of patriotic knitters ranges from society leader to shopgirls, famous actresses to college students, noted clubwomen to housewives. It's simple to become a member of this growing club. All you have to do is visit your local store for yarn and official knitting instructions—then get out your knitting needles and get busy. Stores throughout the country have on hand ample supplies of regulation yarn, together with simple knitting instructions for the types of sweaters needed by today's vast forces of American boys in uniform. When your sweater is completed, return it to the store where you purchased the yarn, which in turn- will forward it to the nearest region council Who will see that it reaches a United States soldier—a personal message from you to some boy in camp, assuring him that he is not forgotten by the "folks back home." Your pin money will buy the yarn. Your spare time will make the sweater. And you'll make an American soldier happy. Phone Mrs. George Heisler, Bellwood 6806-J for further information.

I make it a rule to not pay much attention to whatever Willard "Mitt," a.k.a. "Billy", Romney says.
Unfortunately, he just won't go away. He's effectively spent the past 17 years running for one public office or another (of which he only spent four actually in office, as Governor of Massachusetts) and now he's running for US President, again.
On the campaign trail, it often seems as though he's in a tug-of-war with himself, wanting to brag about his accomplishments during his tenure as Mass. governor from 2003-2007 while at the same time distancing himself from anything that actually happened here, specifically universal health care and marriage equality.
Odd to have someone who is "from" Massachusetts trying as hard as he can to run away from it. Mr. Romney either must think he doesn't need to win Massachusetts' electoral college votes next November in order to become President or he thinks voters here will love him no matter what he says, and he'll win the state regardless. A third possibility is, as my close friends (and I) believe, he's without a moral compass and will say anything and everything in order to be elected, so he'll criticize Massachusetts now to look conservative but brag about it if he wins the Republican nomination next summer to look centrist.
While Mr. Romney does his dance, most of us here in the Bay State just sit and wonder, why would anyone disavow all the great things we've accomplished here?
I was fortunate to be able to sit down with three-time Massachusetts' Governor (and US Presidential candidate) Michael Dukakis several weeks ago. While our conversation was surreptitiously about the MBTA's (useless) bag-search policy, it was basically so I had an excuse to meet with one of my heroes. (Since my tape recorder ended up not working - which was actually a borrowed iPhone that I had no idea how to use - I have no record of that meeting, so I can't write up a column about it. Sorry, Governor …)
He has fond memories of the his years in public service and talked about how the city and state have changed during the past 35 years. The amazing drop in serious crime, the economic miracle, the progressive politics that have made us a shining example of what good government can do. Quite a different point of view than that of Mr. Romney.
Beyond my confusion over how anyone could criticize us, what's more disturbing is that those who are enemies to our way of life always seem so angry.
My Facebook friend, a young, gay, twinky 20-something, is a progressive in the good ol' South who supports marriage equality and is against the death penalty. Over the past several years, he's been slammed by his "friends" over his views. (They are apparently the same sort of people who are cheering the widespread use of the death penalty, gay soldiers, and sick and US citizens without health insurance.) Last week, he posted a status update about Troy Davis, the man who was put to death over many people's objections.
I'll never understand how someone could get satisfaction out of someone else being put to death. Actually, strike that. I can certainly understand how if you had a loved one killed by someone else that you might support the death penalty, but the vast majority of those who are pro-death penalty will never know first-hand what it's like to face that situation, so why do they get so much pleasure from it?
There are certainly things I hate about our state and its peculiar reputation. Our current leadership in the House and Senate, along with our Governor, seem hell-bent upon destroying all that is good in our world with a few strokes of their pens, bringing the vulgar, low-class, and unseemly into our state. And, basically, I am disgusted by the Democratic machine that runs the state. I am, after all, from the South End, which has been represented by such illustrious elected officials as Dianne Wilkerson, Chuck Turner, and Sal DiMasi. But, that's why I'm an independent, not a registered Democrat. The good heavily outweighs the bad.
In-state tuition for illegal immigrants? Sure. Parole for first-degree murderers? Why not? Transgendered-rights bill? You betcha! Not only am I not embarrassed by these things, I wear them like badges of honor.
So, three cheers for us, for leading the nation. If you don't like it, I recommend throwing in the towel, giving up that anything is going to change in your favor, and moving to another state. Like, New Hampshire. Even better, Georgia. Or, Texas. That way, when we split our nation into two parts after the next, inevitable, civil war, you'll already be settled in.
Being a Left-Wing Liberal Snob, Because It Works
Why the Massachusetts-bashing, Mr. Romney? Most of us are happy to live here. And, happy to brag about it, too.

Really John? What part of illegal makes it acceptable?
Let me help you out in case you don't understand what illegal actually means - unlawful; illegitimate; illicit; unlicensed. Illegal, unlawful, illegitimate, illicit, criminal can all describe actions not in accord with law. Illegal refers most specifically to violations of statutes or, in organized athletics, codified rules: an illegal seizure of property; an illegal block ( in football ). Unlawful means not sanctioned by or according to law: an unlawful claim to the inheritance; to take unlawful advantage of the trading situation. Illegitimate means lacking legal or traditional right or rights: an illegitimate child; illegitimate use of privileged knowledge. Illicit, which originally meant simply "not permitted," now most often applies to matters regulated by law with specific emphasis on the way things are carried out: illicit conversion of property; an illicit attempt to control the market. Criminal most often refers to violation of the statutes of penal as opposed to civil law. All felonies are criminal as are all crimes sometimes punishable by death such as murder, arson, and kidnapping: a criminal act.

"...bringing the vulgar, low-class, and unseemly gambling industry into our state. "
You are such an elitist John. How many of your friends have ever wagered any money on sporting events in their lives? How about you? No squares for you when the Pats were playing in the Super Bowl? How about the NCAA brackets? I have friends that make a good living. They aren't vulgar. They aren't "low-class." They enjoy to gamble here and there…more importantly, they love having the option to gamble if they choose. Other friends like to go to the casino to see shows, have dinner and NOT gamble. Believe it or not, there's more to a casino than gambling. But how would you know this, have you even been to a casino?
Death penalty – So you weren't sad to see Saddam hanged?
Ok, deep breath. I'm done with this article.

Kristi, no worries. It's obvious *someone* doesn't care for my conservative opinions (I am NOT saying YOU!) This is Massachusetts; I am used to it.
That aside, I may just abstain from responding to this board and stick with the more traditional 'Charlestown Townies' Facebook page.

Rome (Travel Tips)
SWISS Cabin Crew
In the third part of our series of travel tips we turn our attention to the Eternal City – Rome. The Italian capital is famous for its many historic monuments, among them the Colosseum.
Many of Rome's historic attractions are readily accessible on foot as they are located in the city centre. For a superb view of the city, climb up the Gianicolo hill in the Trastevere quarter. From this vantage point you can see all of the seven famous hills of the city and enjoy perhaps the single finest view of the entire city.
The same quarter is home to the restaurant "Checco er carettiere" (photo on the right-hand side), which has been welcoming diners since 1936. The menu specialises in Roman and Italian dishes, particularly fish fresh from the Mediterranean.
If you are in the mood for a cup of coffee or a glass of wine only, the "Caffetteria Italia" is warmly recommended. The café is at the Vittoriano Monument on the Piazza Venezia. Aside from your beverage, you can also enjoy a stunning view of the heart of the city, including the Roman Forum. If you don't feel like climbing the steps, you can take one of the two lifts.
Rome is a city rich in markets. One of the biggest is the Porta Portese, which occupies Via Portuense and Via Ippolito Nievo in the Trastevere area. You can find just about anything here. The market takes place every Sunday from 07:30 to 14:00.
Have fun in Rome!

look: 3.5 | smell: 3 | taste: 3 | feel: 3.5 | overall: 2.5
Handsome amber color in the pint shaker. Thin body but perky flavor. Pleasantly carbonated on the tongue.
Hops up front, but then they fade, only to resurge in the aftertaste. It's recirculating hops. Pleasant flowery hop flavors to start. Sharp and bitter on the light mouthfeel. If this was 4% ABV I'd be more charitable. It gets to be quite thin, bitter, and sharp, which is OK for a big, thirsty gulp, but not so pleasant for sipping after a pizza.
Drank this on tap at the Ocean Beach location on Election night, 2012.

This beer was my first at Pizza Port in Ocean Beach. I love this place. I'll review it a little later. Right now for 125. It pours a clear golden color with white head that is constantly fed by carbonation bubbles migrating from the bottom. Light lemony citrus bouquet. Mouthfeel is cottony and full.

On tap at Port Carlsbad – 05/03/12
A: Pours a burnished almost brass-like golden color with some real nice clarity. Has a light yellowish glow around the edges. Real effervescent. Forms about a fingers worth of pure white foamy head that leaves some running tracks of lace down the glass.
S: Smell is a super fruit blast full of bright apricot notes with predominant candied citrus fruits. I get lots of tangerine peel and a finishing grassy leaf note. Really nice fruity and floral aroma.
T: Taste is just loaded with citrusy hops that leads with copious grapefruit and orange flavs. Citrus gives way to a kick of that signature PizzaPort hemp plant note. Nicely layered upon an almost biscuity pale malt base that brings a soft grainy sweetness to the brew. Good amount of astringent bitterness. Very sessionable at just 5%ABV and just oh so hoppy.
M: Real light in body with a somewhat creamy mouthfeel and a super dry crisp finish. Upper level of carb. Lingering sticky hop oils coat the mouth.
D: Another great brew from Yiga out of OB! Such a nice hoppy sessionable pale. Nice citrus notes with a big bitterness factor and the pale malts retaining balance. I could crush this one all day long.
Right up there with Alpine's Hoppy Birthday.

A: Slightly transparent yellow orange with an enormous white head.
S: Bright orange, tangerine, and grapefruit notes. Great fruit profile. Light malt with a touch of sweetness. Floral aromatics. Pungent.
T: A burst of citrus flesh. Dominant orange and grapefruit with an upper low bitterness. Big hop flavor without astringency or harshness. Faintly sweet crackery malt.

Overdraft fees still surprise consumers, survey finds
PHILADELPHIA - Nearly two years after the Federal Reserve began requiring banks to get customers' permission before subjecting them to controversial overdraft practices, many account-holders are still surprised when they are charged overdraft fees for debit-card purchases or ATM withdrawals that could simply have been declined, says a new study financed by the Pew Charitable Trusts.By: The Philadelphia Inquirer, INFORUM
PHILADELPHIA - Nearly two years after the Federal Reserve began requiring banks to get customers' permission before subjecting them to controversial overdraft practices, many account-holders are still surprised when they are charged overdraft fees for debit-card purchases or ATM withdrawals that could simply have been declined, says a new study financed by the Pew Charitable Trusts.
The Pew study found that more than half of those hit with overdraft fees did not believe they had opted in to the policies, which enable banks to approve purchases or withdrawals for customers short of funds and then charge them fees for the transactions. Pew says the median bank overdraft fee is about $35.
Pew has focused on unexpected overdraft fees as part of its Safe Checking in the Electronic Age Project, which says the fees pose financial risk, particularly to younger and less-affluent customers.
Overdraft fees, which the economic-research firm Moebs Services says generated close to $30 billion last year, have also been criticized by advocacy groups such as the Consumer Federation of America and since February have been the subject of an inquiry by the federal Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.
In an earlier report, Pew said overdraft policies were typically detailed in stacks of account disclosures that averaged 111 pages at the nation's largest banks.
The new study, based on a survey of more than 6,000 people in March and April, said that about 10 percent had been charged for an overdraft during the previous 12 months for a purchase or cash-machine withdrawal.
Many of the 606 respondents who had paid an overdraft fee did not understand key aspects of their banks' policies, said Susan K. Weinstock, director of the Pew checking project.
"The big point that jumped out at me is that there is so much consumer confusion about this service," Weinstock said in an interview Monday. "Seventy-five percent of overdrafters would prefer to have a transaction declined rather than have it go through and pay the $35 fee."
Weinstock said confusion was magnified by banks' nomenclature for the programs, which the Federal Reserve allows them to present as their "standard overdraft practices."
"Different banks call it different names," she said. "Some call it 'overdraft protection'; some call it 'bounce protection.' " More than a third of the overdrafters surveyed "did not know they had overdraft coverage until after they incurred a penalty," the study found.
Pew recommends requiring banks to label the fee as an "overdraft penalty," to distinguish the underlying programs from cheaper alternatives that most banks offer. Weinstock said customers who opt to cover overdrafts from a savings account or a line of credit pay a median fee of $10 for the transfer.
Pew has also urged the CFPB to bar banks from clearing a day's transactions in ways designed to charge extra overdraft fees, such as by reordering them from largest transaction to smallest.
Weinstock said clearing from smallest to largest would be reasonable, especially since banks are typically paying all the overdrafts in question. So would a fee-neutral approach, such as clearing transactions chronologically.
"We say that if the purpose of reordering is to maximize fees, it should be stopped," she said.

It certainly changed the outlook of UConn coach Paul Pasqualoni.
"The system they're in is obviously difficult enough to defend,'' Pasqualoni said. "And when you're able to run the ball like that it just makes it so much harder to defend.''
How West Virginia got to the point where an explosion like last week's was possible was due to a lot of different factors. Holgorsen has talked all season about the week-by-week improvement of the offensive line. Garrison finally emerged from a three-way battle among true freshmen at tailback. And Shawne Alston, who had 49 yards and two touchdowns against Bowling Green, is finally healthy and provides a big-back alternative.
Still, no one is feeling as if the running game has arrived. This week will provide an entirely new set of challenges in a UConn defense that is eighth in the country against the run.
"I'm never going to feel like we arrived anywhere,'' Holgorsen said. "That's not how we coach around here, and when you think you have figured things out, you'll get humbled pretty quickly.
"We're happy with the performance, but we've closed the book on Bowling Green and we're not going to ever revisit it. [This week is] all about Connecticut and what we have to do to schematically figure out how to be successful on all three sides of the ball.''

It looks to me as though that board was never meant to be reflowed in an oven. Instead, it was soldered using something called the Wave process, where the board is literally passed over a "wave" of molten solder. Anywhere there's a hole is filled with solder.
One easy way to tell is all the through-hole and plastic components, the single-sided board, and the lack of surface mount parts. Next time, use a soldering iron and a desoldering pump – unless you happen to have access to a solder fountain!

Nike Air Foamposite One 'Memphis Madness'
October 15th, 2011 by Aaron Kr. | 59 comments
With "midnight madness" in the air across the college basketball land, we've recently seen a few coinciding sneakers to help properly show some 2011-2012 school spirit on foot leading up to last night's festivities. The 'Oregon Pit Crew' version of the Air Jordan III and the LeBron 9 'University Pack' have made some big noise in the sneaker world lately, but no one ever saw these coming. At last night's "Memphis Madness" event at the FedEx Forum, Penny Hardaway was in attendance to show some support to his former college squad and participate as a guest judge in the Tigers' slam dunk contest. The real story though, was on Penny's feet – a pair of white on white Air Foamposite Ones that were shown off on his Twitter page referred to as Memphis Madness exclusives. No word yet on a possible releases for these, so for now we'll assume that they're for Penny (and perhaps a select few others) only, but you know we'll keep you posted if there are any further developments.

I'm normally not a fan of the foams unless they're in air force form but these I f**kswit super hard I'll even buy these early
I recieved a pair of these a few years back for a charity event we did for penny's charity... All 4 of us did & I still got em (drool if u want)... Pic's on my FB Page.....
These shoes are straight sickness. Really, you guys are ragging on his jeans? You're probably the type to put on some skinny jeans and think you're killing em lol. Fuck outta hea bums
I'd prefer a foamposite pro, black inner lining, white pull tab, black nike check on the side, white foamposite exterior and a black bottom. I'd call them the reverse Dr. Dooms.
LET'S FUCKING GOOO! finally a cw of the foams I feel I must get thus year since the royals
The yellowing on the bottom will match the top as well! Chill these are a no no. Knowing Nike and there foam overkill it'll release.
daaaaaaaaaammmm.. those foams are so fuckin dope... and u kno they will never release these to da public.. dam shame
Dear Nike, Where the f*ck is my pair? Sincerely, The guy with no exclusive sneaker connects
...1st time i ever saw PENNY play was when he went up against MICHIGANs FAB FIVE. I think it was in the NCAA TOURNAMENT and he dropped 32 on JALEN ROSE but the FAB FIVE stole the show...ahhhh,the GOOD OL' DAYS. And he played for MEMPHIS TIGERS.
Haha yessir! These r very dope tho. I think we'll get a chance to grab these next year at $225
granny jeans; even tho penny was probably wearing true religious. and that does not justify how ugly those jeans are
I own 3 pairs of them buddy OG black pro and pearls and the blue penny one. They ate over rated. Nike over did it. I also own 2 pairs of flightposites and white/blk duncans totals they are nice kicks but overrated

For Wheels
Whether it is viewed as a large family sedan or a street-legal hot rod, the Dodge Charger can be much more than you first envision.
That's a large part of the appeal. There are plenty of bigger sedans that have the space to carry a full complement of five passengers, but not that many come with an engine that is nearly 300 horsepower. And there are high-horsepowered cars out there that would be just as at home on a race track as a highway, but not that many that can handle the luggage for an accompanying pit crew.
The Dodge Charger, with a notable addition of a high-performance SRT8 for 2012, has it all.
For those thinking this is all-American muscle, you're partly correct. There is certainly muscle in the SRT8, and while the creativity may come from Detroit, all Chargers are actually manufactured in Canada.
I recently drove two very different Chargers. The SXT Plus, with its near-base price of $28,595 (the entry-level SE starts at $25,595) comes with a 3.6-liter V6 engine that might provide all the pulse-raising you need with 292 horsepower.
The SRT8 is the high-end trim at $45,925 that comes with a 6.4-liter V8 HEMI and its pulsating 470 horsepower. Both were with the traditional Charger rear-wheel drive, although all-wheel drive is also offered on the RT and SXT trims that are priced somewhere between our testers.
There is also a third-engine, a 5.7-liter V8 with 370 horsepower.
I started out in the SXT Plus, which surprised me with its road manners and its plush optional Nappa leather seats (just typing Nappa makes it seem better). Seriously, for around-town driving, this version of the Charger seemed like an Impala.
Among the standard items were an 8-speed automatic transmission, hill-start assist and universal garage door opener. The V6 engine seemed more than suitable for all occasions.
Until, that is ...
The SRT8 arrived. Now Dodge gets your attention. The 470 horsepower engine is robust, can go 0-60 mph in less than five seconds and reportedly can reach 175 mph. Not that I was so brazen. Let's just say that this baby is quick and plenty fun.
The bulky price tag is filled with more than an engine. There is a navigation system, leather and suede upholstery, heated and ventilated front seats, heated back seats, upgraded sound system, performance adaptive suspension, rear spoiler (needed for a visual presentation of this being more than an ordinary sedan) and 20-inch tires.
The SRT8 hearkens back to more macho days. Other members of the Dodge Charger lineup allow for everyone in the family to go along for the ride.

I have a tub with an integral overflow in a second story bath. The drain for the tub is directly over a sistered joist. I REALLY don't want to move the tub or cut the joist so I set up the drain as shown.
I can't get the trap watertight (it is slightly misaligned so it doesn't seat properly)- so I will be taking this out anyway. I would appreciate any advice on a better setup moving forward.
