PhosphOmega provides long chain omega-3 fatty acids as nature intended, a complex of phospholipids with DHA and EPA acting synergistically on the cell membrane level. Most fish oil products consist of ethyl ester (EE) or triglyceride forms. Phospholipid-bound omega-3s are better absorbed and utilized than the EE or triglyceride forms. PhosphOmega is derived from fish meal and is a sustainable source of long chain omega-3s.

text: We embarked the Epic in Barcelona. There were a lot of people getting on, but all in all had no trouble. I really liked our cabin. Yes, it was a bit tight but it had great storage space and was very comfortable, quiet and well-maintained. We had an extended balcony and while nice to have, we never used most of it, preferring to sit by the railing to enjoy the sun.Our cabin was on deck 10 which was really convenient for going up a few floors to the pool deck or down a few to the restaurants. I never heard any noise from the hallway and very little from our neighbours. Closing the balcony door blocked any noise from outside, but it was nice to sleep with the door open at night.Room steward was efficient. Everything was as expected.We only booked one excursion through the cruise line: Pisa & Florence on your own. It was expensive but well run. Ship organized shuttle service in all ports was also good.I found Norwegian to be fantastic and getting people on and off the ship at ports. We never had to linger in the stairwells waiting to get off the way we have on other cruises.The buffet was well-laid out with lots of room for so many passengers. We could always find a seat somewhere, even on sea days.Loved their nightlife - The White Hot Party and Latin Night at Bliss were especially good. We also enjoyed the Jazz club & the pool tables at O'Sheehan's.We enjoyed our meals at the Taste and Manhattan dining rooms. Service was a bit hit-or-miss but generally food was good.We ate at Teppanyaki & Moderno. We much preferred Teppanyaki for the food and atmosphere. I found the itinerary exhausting. The 3 ports in Italy are especially long days. We preferred the ports we could enjoy close to the ship, with beautiful Palma being the clear winner.Overall a good cruise. Norwegian didn't knock our socks off but they did deliver everything they promised. I would definitely cruise them again if price/itinerary was right. They are a mass-market cruise line and are more similar than different to the others I've sailed (Carnival, Princess, RCI). The only thing that sets them apart IMO is their Freestyle Dining which I truly enjoyed. They also had better entertainment choices overall.

Comet C/2013 A1 (Siding Spring), discovered by scientists on January 3, flies by Mars at a remarkably close distance.
An official NASA website puts the most likely "close-approach" distance between the comet and Mars at something more like 100,000km.
The minimum close-approach distance is, however, zero, which leaves the possibility of an impact open.

For the fifth year, ETC (Booth #3300) is sponsoring a group of talented graduate students to ETS-LDI. The all-expense-paid trip will open further doors for these promising lighting professionals, whose youthful accomplishments and packed portfolios already merit recognition and reward. At ETS-LDI, the students will try out cutting-edge entertainment technologies, rub shoulders with veteran luminaries of our industry, and get a privileged peek behind the scenes with one of the world's leading lighting companies.
And the winners are…
Arthur "Shon" Causer For Shon Causer, lighting design is a unique opportunity to 'influence the emotional response of an audience without saying a word.' A three-time semifinalist in the prestigious ACT Festival, Shon is currently attending Philadelphia's Temple University and expects to complete his MFA in Lighting Design in 2006. With a BA from Humboldt University in Theatre Arts, 2001, Shon has also been staff electrician at Prince Music Theatre in Philadelphia and served as lighting designer on numerous productions, including Temple's recent Shakin' the Mess Outta Misery and GrooveLily's Striking Twelve at Symphony Space in New York City.
Matthew J. Fick Matthew Fick has set his sights on New York, and he "won't stop running until he reaches Broadway." He's off to a good start with a BFA in Theater Arts from Ohio University, Athens, 2002, and experience accrued as lighting designer at Shepherd College in conjunction with Contemporary American Theater Festival in Shepherdstown, WV. Matthew's recent design work includes Chicago and Footloose at the Papermill Theater and Two Gentlemen of Verona, done while concentrating on a 2005 MFA in Lighting Design at Rutgers University's Mason Gross School of the Arts, New Brunswick, NJ.
David Stuart Griffie Since being awestruck by the "unbelievable lighting" at a London production of Albert Speer, David Griffie has dreamt of being a professional lighting designer working in Chicago and teaching others. With a recent First Place in Lighting Design from SETC, David is working towards an MFA in Scenography at the University of North Carolina-Greensboro, in 2005. In 2002, he received his BS in Theatre Arts from Lees-McRae College in Banner Elk, NC. David has recently done lighting design for the UNC productions of The Crucible, Trestle at Pope Lick Creek and scenic design for the cult hit Bat Boy: The Musical.
Monique R. Norman Monique R. Norman is already a veteran board op, having taught herself how to run a control console when she was in sixth grade, and there was no one to do the lights for a choir show. In June of this year she graduated with a BFA in Lighting Design from Texas State University, where she won numerous lighting honors, advancing to ACTF Nationals at Kennedy Center in 2002. Monique has filled a portfolio with lighting and electrician work, including designs from The Barn Theatre, a summer stock venue in Augusta, MI. She is now pursuing an MFA in Tech-Design at the University of Texas-Austin, anticipating her degree in 2007.
Anjeanette Stokes Traveling abroad, and working under the tutelage of Joanna Town at the Royal Court Theatre in London, has given Anjeanette Stokes a global orientation in lighting design. Her goal is do international work after she finishes her MFA in Lighting Design at Ohio State University, Columbus, in 2005. With a BA in Drama from the University of Dallas in 2002, Anjeanette has amassed a dense resumé, including her teaching assistantship at OSU, her thesis design there on Measure for Measure, and a busy summer internship at Williamstown Theatre Festival in Massachusetts.
Greta J. Welsh Since a child, Greta Welsh has been "captivated by shadows", foregoing the limelight of acting for the moods and colors of light itself. Her fascination has led to experimentation in painting and stage design and aspirations for a career in the industry, working currently toward a graduate degree in lighting design at Humboldt State University, CA, in 2006. Her recent work there includes the atmospheric Echoes of the Night. With a BA from Westminster College in 2001, Greta says she has been much influenced by the likes of Oasis Stage Werks' Spencer Brown and the lighting seminars of the venerable Bill Klages.

Congrats Dougie Fresh and way to redeem yourself after that fumble. Even though it should have been called a fumble, you picked your head back up and ran it down the kittens throat in OT. **CENSORED** you panthers!

I like to train. It's been in my blood since I was a kid playing pop warner football (American) and I been at it ever since. I wake up everyday wanting to get the best out of myself Physically, Mentally and even Spiritually. Staying on the Physcial note though, I find the toughest routine to get up for when I hit the gym is core exercises. The shit kills me man, everytime! They have this new workout at this gym I go to, where u set your feet up to the point where you're dangling upside down and u have to pull yourself up. I figured new routine, I'll try it, why not. Did as many as I could until I burnt out... Bad idea! On my last count I couldn't lift back up and was left swaying back and forward like a fucking punching bag (Imagine that) until i could garner enough strength to pull up lol.
That experience led to the idea to ask people here who workout (or not), share what the toughest routine you've done or herd of doing while training?

In 6.1 miles, this trail winds through a bird refuge with more than 130 feathered species, a secluded canyon, and an old pioneer town flooded by the Willamette River in the 1800s.
The steep, 6-mile out-and-back hike to 3,226-foot Kings Mountain makes a good early-season tune-up or midsummer wildflower tour.

text: CHICAGO (AP) - Nature is throwing all it has at Middle America, from snow in the north to tornadoes in the Plains, and enough rain in Chicago to cause a sinkhole that swallowed cars. National Weather Service watches and warnings are in place across the region Thursday. Up to a foot of snow is forecast for parts of Minnesota and the Dakotas. Downpours are causing rivers to bust their banks in Missouri, Iowa and Illinois. Tornadoes caused scattered damage in Oklahoma. Frost warnings are in effect as a cold front pushes out warmer air. Rain is blamed for a huge sinkhole in Chicago that swallowed three cars and sent one driver to the hospital. Winds, possibly from a tornado, damaged dozens of homes in Spavinaw, Okla., and caused minor damage near Paris, Mo.(Copyright 2013 The Associated Press. All rights reserved.

Several readers questioned why our coverage of last Saturdays protest rally in Raleigh appeared on the Triangle & N.C. front and not on Sundays front page. Huge (record numbers?) numbers of people on the street on a cold day and this is not front page news? one reader wrote. The UNC student has a compelling story for sure, but the march was breaking news, not human interest stuff.
The Mass Moral March, among other things, protested several laws that the legislature passed last year.
We typically have space for three stories on Sundays front page. The reader referred to our story about Emilio Vicente, 22, a candidate for student body president at UNC-Chapel Hill with an unusual background. Vicentes family is from Guatemala. When he was 6, he traveled with his mother and others through Mexico. The group crossed into Arizona illegally. Vicente grew up in Siler City, where he graduated from high school.
We published this story on the middle of the page with a large photograph of Vicente. The story was pegged to Tuesdays campus election (Vicente led several candidates; a runoff will be held next week).
Atop the front page, we featured a report about North Carolina teachers leaving public schools. It was tied to this weeks announcement by Gov. Pat McCrory of a proposed raise for early career teachers.
In the least prominent position on the page, we wrote about the Catawba Indian Nations attempt to open a casino west of Charlotte. The proposal raises sensitive policy questions for the state; Gov. McCrory opposes it.
Reasonable people can disagree about story placement. The news staff disagrees daily. We gave the march story prominent display on the Triangle & N.C. front, with a large photograph and a secondary photograph; the package took up about half of the section front.
The crowds size made the march story worth considering for the front page. Raleigh police did not provide an estimate ( see a related story today by Thomasi McDonald) but said the permit called for 20,000 to 30,000 people. It appeared to be one of the largest marches in Raleighs recent history.
But this was an annual event with similar messages. The Historic Thousands on Jones Street march was started in 2007. Last weeks march repeated themes from previous years and from recent Moral Monday marches, which also were led by the state NAACP. We didnt think there were enough new developments to displace any of the front-page stories.
Dilbert and India
We received questions about why we published alternative Dilbert comic strips on Feb. 7 and 8. We chose not to publish two Scott Adams strips satirizing a court decision in India that makes homosexual acts illegal.
Cartoons by their nature simplify and generalize. Adams was entitled to comment on the court decision. But in one panel he said the people of India have the scientific knowledge of inebriated astrologers. Adams argument was with a court in India but his language stereotyped the entire nation.
Science coverage moves
Starting Monday, our weekly Science & Technology coverage will move from inside Triangle & N.C. (section B) to the first two pages of section D. The Science & Technology coverage has been popular with readers since we launched it in 2010. Moving it to the front of a section gives it a more prominent position in the paper. Connect, your guide to the latest gadgets and digital innovations, moves inside the section and makes for a good marriage of content.

A Seneca man whose body was found by a turkey hunter Thursday morning froze to death after he fled deputies after a crash, according to officials.
Oconee County Coroner Karl Addis said 40-year-old Douglas Chapman Jr. was found about 7 a.m. in a wooded area of the Friendship community near Seneca.
Addis said Chapman's body was found near where he was seen running into the woods after deputies arrived at a motorcycle crash Sunday morning. He said the Oconee County Sheriff's Office had an outstanding warrant for Chapman's arrest.
Chapman was found wearing only jeans and boots, Addis said. He said the low temperature on Sunday was 45 degrees and it had been raining. He said that as hypothermia sets in, victims become disoriented, confused and feel a sensation of warmth. He said this may have caused Chapman to shed his shirt.
Addis said Chapman had suffered minor cuts, consistent with being in a wooded area. He said there were no injuries that indicated Chapman was involved in a crash.

Rizzo and Selby for D5 supervisor. Our top choice in D1 is Eric Mar
Rafael Mandelman is a lawyer who's been involved in progressive politics in the city for years. He's an honest, principled activist respected by people across the political spectrum. He told us he has no illusions about the challenges ahead — or about challenging everyone, including his allies on the board, if that's what it takes to save City College. "Short term," he told us, "it's all bad" — and he has the clear eyes and integrity to make the painful decisions. In a bitterly divided board, he may be something of a peacemaker, since nobody on any side doubts his intentions.
Steven Ngo, a civil rights lawyer, has been an exceptional board member, someone who respects and supports the district's broad mission but has no illusions about the financial problems. He's been complaining for years about the lack of centralized accounting systems, about the district's lack of control over employee health spending — and about absenteeism among some board members, which has been a serious problem. He's talking about fixing the basic problems first, including a system of internal governance that is so diffuse it often seems nobody knows who's in charge.
Amy Bacharach, a policy researcher for the state court system, knows the value of education — she went from high school dropout to Ph.D. in 20 years. She agrees that the district shouldn't abandon its commitment to adult education, ESL, and non-credit classes, but also agrees with WASC that the governance system is far too loose and that the board needs to centralize decision-making. She has progressive values and a clear head for what needs to be done, and would be a strong ally for Jackson, Mandelman and Ngo.
We also liked William Walker, the current student trustee, who has lots of great ideas and knows more about the district than almost anyone but as a student with a job and a role on the board, he isn't running much of an effective campaign; he has a future in local politics, and ought to run again in two years when he has less on his table. Hanna Leung offered some solid ideas and was also a strong candidate.
But right now, in this race, at this time, we're backing Jackson, Ngo, Mandelman, and Bacharach.
It's safe to say that nobody else in town is endorsing this particular slate of candidates. But it reflects our complicated and nuanced perspective on the state of the San Francisco public schools.
It's important — critically important — to recognize that the local schools have improved dramatically over the past few years. When you see the actual data, it's almost a miracle — at a time when the district has lost almost 20 percent of its state funding, when schools are begging parents to donate pencils and paper because there aren't enough basic supplies to make it through the year, student achievement is up by almost metric. SFUSD is the best performing large urban district in California. There are more good schools and fewer failures. Test scores continue to creep upward. The racial achievement gap, while still unacceptable, is narrowing. Enrollment at the elementary level, once in sharp decline, is growing as faith in the schools improves.
The administration of outgoing Superintendent Carlos Garcia was refreshingly open; the gag orders and repressive programs of his predecessor, Arlene Ackerman, are gone. Garcia's anointed successor, Richard Carranza, is following the same track. And the often fractious board is working together remarkably well.
Their logic for endorsing Jill Wynn fails me. And not endorsing Gladys Soto simply doesn't make sense.
And what about Measure G? What is the endorsement for that?
races/issues are right on. They veer sharply off course when it comes to San Francisco city races and issues. We do not need more supervisors, especially in D7, who take their marching orders from the goons of SEIU.
You seriously just endorsed another guy who inappropriately puts his hands on women? What's that everyone says about the establishment progressives being misogynistic as hell?
By the way, did Steven recuse himself or is it totally cool for the Guardian to let their reporters throw an endorsement to their personal friends?
It's amazing how desperate and cynical the Olague camp is at this point. We've seen this same rumor surface every time anyone has anything nice to say about Julian. Show us some names, dates, accusations, and police reports, or STFU and own the fact that you're bought and paid for by Willie Brown, Rose Pak, Ed Lee and their real estate clients.
The Guardian pretty much admitted as much. What else was this supposed to be a reference to?
"His personal life and behavior in his 20s were not always admirable."
Julian Davis FTW!!!
Yes, what about measure G, the ballot initiative to overturn Citizens United?
We went ahead and broke out our city proposition endorsements here: http://www.sfbg.com/2012/10/03/endorsements-2012-san-francisco-propositions
you'll find our thoughts on prop G among them
Julian Davis 2012!!
He's been hyping his candidacy for months now while threatening Olague for wandering off the progressive rez. The endorsement of Julian Davis in D5 was a foregone conclusion - Olague is now totally free to vote her conscience on the Mirkarimi matter.
That doesn't mean principled progressives who supported Mirkarimi and who usually vote along something like the Bay Guardian's line should vote for Olague. While her independent voting record is OK, her febrile style has been really weak. Selby and Breed are sounding better and better to me.
What's also curious is how when given an opportunity to endorse a female of color, in this race and others, the Guardian inevitably defers. Breed, Olague, Cohen - the misogyny of the progressive left in SF never fails to depress.
When given the opportunity by downtown interests to vote for a one of two women of color, yes, we deferred, instead choosing an African-American and a woman who are both independent of that corrupting influence. We aren't going to be shamed into playing the game that Willie Brown, Rose Pak, Ed Lee, and their operatives David Ho and Enrique Pearce want us to play, one that Christina Olague has been sucked into playing, to our great disappointment. And my guess, Troll II (or should I call you Enrique?), is that you're also on that same game's payroll.
Sensitive much? If there weren't substance to the criticism, one voiced long before The Guardian went all in to defend a wife-smacking sheriff, you wouldn't be so vociferous in responding to it.
Here's a thought - you may be wrong and the criticism of your opponents may have substance. Ever stopped to consider that?
Enrique Pearce (aka John Henry?) wrote the paean to Lee which was distributed free to everybody's doorstep... just one step up from your neighbor's drunken hurl, in terms of desirability, no doubt.
Yes, lilli - you're falling prey to the paranoia too? I didn't event VOTE for Lee last year.
Enrique Pearce (aka John Henry?) wrote the paean to Lee which was distributed free to everybody's doorstep... just one step up from your neighbor's drunken hurl, in terms of desirability, no doubt.
Steven, you've managed before now not to fall into that kind of paranoia about commenters here that the likes of lillipublicans spews. How disappointing.
It isn't paranoia to identify this deceptive tactic that has been effectively employed by Ho and Pearce to drive in a wedge that has divided and conquered the progressive movement in San Francisco, to the benefit of developers and commercial landlords. It's clear and well-documented what has happened, and Troll II is parroting Pearce, which is why I made an educated guess that they are the same person or directly connected. The Guardian has always stood up for progressive values, and yes, diversity is one of those values, which is why it's been such a smart strategy for Brown, Pak, and Lee to coopt women of color (Jane Kim, Christina Olague, etc.) to push their agenda. But identifying and calling out what's happening is the first step toward countering it, and that's not paranoia, because we've seen in vote after vote, policy after policy, that they really are out to undermine the progressive movement and gentrify San Francisco, increasing their profits and power at the expense of the working and middle classes.
Expected the Davis, but glad to see that SFBG saw beyond its usual benchmarks to endorse a great candidate like Selby. I'm looking forward to seeing how she plays her cards in the next five weeks now that this one's been added to the deck.
then a better choice than Selby would be Hope Johnson.
The Bay Guardian seems to just endorse the candidates who give them the most advertising revenue.
...who question their particular notion of "the progressive movement" the least.
But I'd add Hope Johnson.
Nice to see the Jill Wynns endorsement.
She knows district history by memory and understand budgetary issues. No one can pull a fast one on her.
Mostly pretty good picks, but a few doozies. Passing over a passionate advocate for kids like Gladys Soto... in favor of a lifetime career bureaucrat like Jill Wynns? Seriously?
Missed the mark here big time. Based on his track record and aptitude, Yee is is not cut out to be a Supervisor. I saw one of his debates recently, his lack of eye contact, scripted remarks and poor communication skills were truly telling. Just because somebody has "experience" in a job does not make him qualified; electing the President of the School Board for Supervisor is like hiring the coach of winless pee-wee team to Coach the 49ers.
And if you are a fan of the status quo, giant budget deficits, and labor unions controlling this great but but ailing city we live in, then by all means vote for FX Crowley, career Labor Reprenative. Your kids will truly appreciate the giant debt burden incurred to pay for his misguided policies.
Look for somebody from the private sector that knows how to create jobs, manage a budget, negotiate for the best interest of families, students, and local business in District 7. My vote will go to Bob Squeri, lifelong resident of District 7, business owner, and not-for-profit leader.
One simple reason not to support Eric Mar.... he does not answer emails or phone calls.... not even from someone that wanted to donate to his campaign....
Is that someone we want in office?
I totally agree... from what I've seen, Mar just follows his own agenda. I keep reading about how much he's done for our district, but I've seen very little. All you have to do is walk down Geary St. and see how the area has deteriorated since he's been in office. He's eccentric and seems to desperately want to be labeled as "progressive," but has done virtually nothing for us despite hearing a lot of District 1 resident complaints. I'm ready to see some new blood in the Richmond. McGoldrick was a disappointment, and then I voted for Mar. He's basically wasted a lot of our time.
Mar was McGoldrick's lap-dog, hand-picked to continue McGoldrick policies, which flew totally in the face of what District 1 voters wanted. Mar doesn't even have the cojones to "follow his own agenda": he took his marching orders from Chris Daly, Mirkarimi and their ilk -- people whose agenda is NOT what the majority of the people of District 1 want. Mar figured the'd ride Murky's badge (or hair) into a better-paying gov't position. (He's had "issues" paying child support and his taxes while Supervisor...) But now he's screwed. After 4 years, our "missing in action" Supervisor has almost no name recognition; a large majority of those who do recognize his name have a strongly negative impression...and his step-ladder, Mirkarimi, has folded. The very best Mirkarimi can hope for at this point is to be a lame-duck sheriff, an ineffectual joke (earning a ridiculous salary). So Mar has now spent 4 years selling his constituents' interests down the river in favor of what Mirkarimi and his cohort wants...and the "chickens are coming home to roost" as they say. At least the Jack in the Box franchise owner on Geary owes Mar for selling out 1000 of his constituents -- so Mar should be able to get a job making nachos there...
"(It's interesting that Campos and John Avalos, the two supes who refused to moderate their stands or compromise with the likes of Rose Pak, are now running unopposed; their constituents seem to like consistency and honesty.)"
Read this on SFgate
"ATHENS, Ga. (AP) — Georgia Rep. Paul Broun said in videotaped remarks that evolution, embryology and the Big Bang theory are "lies straight from the pit of hell" meant to convince people that they do not need a savior.
The Republican lawmaker made those comments during a speech Sept. 27 at a sportsman's banquet at Liberty Baptist Church in Hartwell. Broun, a medical doctor, is running for re-election in November unopposed by Democrats."
Tim has used this "reasoning" around his golden boys in the past, so strange. In reality Tim is saying that the citizens of these districts are conceived as being so narrow and doctrinaire that no one wants to bother to run against them. Just as in some districts of Georgia.
It's really obvious that you don't even bother to read his articles (or anyone else's) before commenting. Otherwise, how do you come up with these non sequiturs?
these " " are?
They are quotation marks. Meaning what is inside them is quoted from some other place, in this case it is a quote of Mr Redmond.
Glad I can be of help.
... or perhaps, more to the point and more close to Samuel Johnson's original aphorism that I am paraphrasing, I should say "corporatist scoundrel."
The fact that political representatives who remain faithful to the electorate that put them into office thereby avoiding challenges at the ballot box has absolutely no bearing on the quality of the thinking or character of their constituents.
Matlock, you are such a hopelessly duplicitous jackass, it's hard to believe that anyone has ever been swayed by your rubbish, but you emit such a quantity of it, perhaps the laws of averages work in your favor on occasion.
are smart like you. As you claim to be a genius at every turn I can see how that works out for you. People that agree with you on most things must obviously be as self identified as smart as you.
Alas, Tim's argument is that a true believers will not face a challenger because they are so good at true belief and the public will love them. Not unlike the far rights claims that all they need are true republicans like Reagan and they will the White House forever. It is interesting that someone as self identified as smart as you falls for these obvious moronic talking points. So easily manipulated and so self identified smart.
to mention that today's Republican teabaggers revere Reagan in name only; in person, he would be *far* too liberal to satisfy their radicalism.
From above: "If Lee wins, it will be a huge setback to the progressive movement."
Yep -- which is EXACTLY why he's hugely popular in the Richmond district. We are a neighborhood of very hard-working small-business people (dry cleaners, small restaurants, hair salons...) We are mostly people who are new to this country for whom EDUCATION means everything. We are people who want the American dream...most of whom had parents who came, or came ourselves, to San Francisco, put every cent we had and borrowed more to open a small business that their spouses, kids, nieces and nephews worked in 14 hours a day. And we'll be damned if we're going to have Mar and his nut case "regressives" tell us that our hard work is not going to advance our families, but we're supposed to pay ever-increasing property taxes and parking meter rates and business taxes and sales taxes to support a bunch of lazy jerks who lay around on Haight St. all day, stoned, preventing people from getting into shops, causing store owners to have to scrub urine off their buildings and sidewalks, while these scum beg for "money for dope."
Mar and Mirkarimi and Avalos think that working hard and managing to buy your own home is "bad"! WTF?! And we're "bad" because we will provide housing (1 flat, or an in-law apartment) in the same building we live in and must maintain in a city that is desperate for moderately priced rental units? Do you have ANY idea how many sm. property owners have taken units OFF the market and will no longer rent them because of the outrageous, scary laws that these idiots have put into place -- which leave a property owner utterly HELPLESS if they have a tenant who's crazy or addicted, or dangerous or ruining their property? Our neighborhood has been blighted to the point where it's almost unrecognizable from what it was 12 years ago. We have "Progressives" McGoldrick and Mar to blame for this. There is NOTHING "progressive" about what they have done to District 1. Throw the bums OUT -- and give 'em a good kick in the backside to make sure they have good clearance!
Re: District 7, SFBG should have done some fact checking before endorsing FX Crowley. He is known as a corrupt union boss who bought his way into City Hall. In addition to the skeletons in his closet he has years of NLRB and EEOC charges for discriminatory hiring practices that primarily involve women. These lawsuits cost the union a small fortune and he will run his district just like he did his union ---into the ground.
I live in supe district 9 (SOMA) but received a district 6 absentee ballot, so there is nowhere to vote for supervisor!! I probably would not have realized unless I was going through the endorsements here. How often does the Dept of Elections f*** these mailings up??
My name is Bud Ryerson and I am a fully qualified write-in candidate for Supervisor in San Francisco District 9. Although we are not as powerful or as well funded as our opponent, it is not accurate to say that David Campos is running unopposed. We would appreciate seeing your correction before election day, if not your endorsement. We are on Facebook as "Bud 4 Nine" and also at http://bud4nine.budryerson.com. Thank you, and be sure to vote.
Here's what was written in this article in October, about Rachel Norton, but then SFBG deleted the text from their article:
"We recognize that Rachel Norton has been a powerful and effective advocate for students with special needs, and an advocate for healthier school food."
But they don't endorse her -- and they endorse the other incumbents even after such unflattering statements about them? Makes no sense, but SFBG never does, when they endorse candidates for school board.
Here the SFBG goes for ideological shortcut instead of doing its homework.
Steve Ngo headed the Budget Committee at CCSF. Do I need to point out that the last budget he signed off on was based on Prop. 30 passing? The Accreditation Committee surely noticed that. Instead of acting of any of the problems Accreditation pointed out six years ago, he went on witch hunts against well-meaning faculty and telling students they don't need a placement test to put them in the right English and Math classes. He's incompetent and vicious. Chris Jackson is his henchman, almost as worthless, if a bit more affable. Amy Bacharach's only academic experience is working at a FOR PROFIT college (Argosy), in the psychology department, which was sued for granting degrees that were not accredited (that is, worthless). Does the SFBG know this????
Mandelman looks pretty good. The rest are jokers or far worse--grandstanding identity politics retreads from the early 90s era academic scene.
San Francisco Voters:
Please vote for Rachel Norton for re-election to the Board of Education. Rachel has common sense, integrity, and has proven herself to be a tireless advocate for San Francisco's students. She's the hardest working member of the School board and deserves another term. I urge anyone who cares about kids in San Francisco Public Schools to vote to re-elect Rachel.
=v= We need another 3rd party in this city: Green In Name Only. It's a way to get environmental credentials without doing anything actually green. Maybe do a lackluster stint at a nonprofit known for sellouts, register Green for a while (before of course defecting to the Democratic Party at endorsement time), work to attract hundreds of cars to Golden Gate Park, stuff like that. Then you'll get the _Guardian_ D5 endorsement, easy peasy.
Your mommy was right. There are only good people and bad people. Everything is black and white. All issues can be reduced to yes or no. If someone does something you don't like, make sure they suffer for the rest of their life.
Thank you for this insight, gifted one. I know you guys (emphasis on GUYS) are just out for a little yuck, yuck on these chatboards since you obviously don't have anything more productive to do with your time, but if you and lilli and marcos ever get together and form a bona-fide group like, "The Only Ones Literate Snarkers, United," I suspect you can conquer the world with your incessently unwitty, critical and oppressive posts. The rest of us our just mindless, idiot sheep as you GUYS keep pointing out.

Green Grid announces strategy, timelines
The Green Grid gave an overview of their strategy and timeline for deliverables at a press event yesterday.
The group reiterated its bottom up focus (partly in response to questions about criticisms from the Gartner Group): start with the data center now, where they feel they can make a near-term impact and get their hands around the problem, and work out to larger issues over the long term when there is a contribution to be made.
The strategy is focused around three thrusts: data collection, data assessment, and technology proposals. The near term plan is aggressive, with major deliverable documents in all thrusts by the end of this year. Certainly some of these documents will be high level, but the group intends to iterate and refine over time.

PG&E has also announced their membership in the GG, the first utility to do so.

With the Miami Marlins 2012 revenues falling well short of expectations, the team has decided once again to dump salary.
According to Joe Capozzi of the Palm Beach Post, the team drew 2,219,444 fans in its first year at Marlins Park, which ranked 18th in the league and represented the smallest first-year attendance for a ballpark since 2001.
After the Marlins' tough season last year, it would be assumed the attendance numbers would plummet in 2013. By trading Mark Buehrle, Jose Reyes, Josh Johnson, Emilio Bonifacio and John Buck, the Marlins not only let down their fans, but also their remaining players.
Marlins star outfielder Giancarlo Stanton tweeted, "Alright, I'm pissed off!!!! Plain & Simple." Ricky Nolasco, the highest-paid Marlin, added, "Huh?.....".
Manny Navarro of the Miami Herald tweeted, "When Redmond was named manager, Beinfest told us he was given a spending plan by Loria. Now we know what it is: Dump $$." He also suggested that the 2013 marketing slogan be "Hasta La Vista, baby."
Dan Le Batard tweeted, "Not that it'll quiet anyone but Marlins spin will be attendance was bad, so we traded expensive last-place players for Toronto farm system."
The feeling around the Blue Jays is that they are ready to take the next step, with Blue Jay broadcaster Mike Wilner saying, "This appears to be about the biggest trade #Bluejays have ever made. The splash all y'all wanted last week. Instant contenders." Gregor Chisholm of MLB.com tweeted, "Once this trade goes through (important to note it's still not official), #BlueJays suddenly have very few glaring holes on the roster."
The Marlins got some good prospects from Toronto that their new manager, Mike Redmond, is very familiar with as he managed Toronto's Class-A team last season. However, the overwhelming response is that the Marlins duped the fans and taxpayers of Miami and that the Blue Jays have finally taken the next step to compete in the A.L. East.

Humor's only full-length disc has come – well – posthumously. It's
also a shame that the three original members' post-VH minimalist
outfit, named The Regrets (who appear on the last listed track),
has also prematurely disbanded. To VH and The Regrets, who now join
the boot hill of lost wonders victimized by major label courtship
along with Jawbreaker, Drive Like Jehu, Texas is the Reason,
Mineral … goodbye, so long, farewell.
Kansas, college boys, it was not before Jeff Matlow quit his day
job in order to release two seven inches and a seven song EP, which
eventually became the maiden releases on his Crank! record label.
On the cusp of a oversaturated grunge scene, yet in a highly touted
alterna-rock era, VH's sound hinted at vintage Dinosaur Jr. and a
well known Seattle-grunge trio, but never really found a niche.
Their inception and progression was too early and fast for the time
being. Their blend of loud, post-hardcore energy and pop
sensibility has yet to supplant its indie rock dwelling even today,
though the tide seems to be definitely turning. But VH is as much
of a paramount emo-pop band as they are a solid rock 'n' roll band.
The best tracks from "Posthumous" are collected from previous
recordings. The produced songs stand out noticeably amongst the
live, more raw ones, which does draw from the record's consistency
and attractiveness to non-die-hard fans. But then again, the
compilation is a perfect resemblance of VH's shortly-recorded
stint, and is truly personified in the last two cuts, "Our Lady of
the Highway" and The Regrets' song "Good Things Come to Those in
Small Packages." Both culminate with emphatic guitar and vocal
bursts that incite a head-shakin', body-jerkin'
song-along-and-hit-replay kind of thing. The songs are highlights
of what VH was at times and could have been- but unfortunately they
were shrugged off with whimsical assuredness. Yeah, we wish we
could hear more, but like they say, good things come in small
packages. Brendon Vandergast B+
and guitar driven songs … these are as fundamental to rock and
roll as grease is to french fries, and Pete Droge doesn't forget
it. On "Spacey and Shakin," the third release from singer and
songwriter Droge, the fare is pretty straightforward: good,
old-fashioned rock music. In a style that borrows equally from
Michael Penn and Tom Petty, Droge turns out 11 tracks of pleasant
melodies, thumping rhythms and cryptic lyrics.
the Millionaires, provides an solid background to his capable
guitar work and evocative voice. Most impressive is the interplay
between the various instruments on tracks like the futuristic "I
Want To Go Away" and the title track. Droge displays a subtle touch
behind the keyboard console in "Eyes On The Ceiling," weaving the
soft touches of the Wurlitzer in like a guitar quietly feeding
back. "Blindly," the closing tune, features subdued slide guitar
and laid back keyboards that carry the tune away nicely. The
gritty, standout track "Motorkid" conjures up images of open roads
and empty time. Here, Droge sounds most comfortable. the songs
guitar crunch and deft bass work invites foot tapping and excessive
freeway speed. While Droge does not venture into unproven territory
too often, he does put songs together well. "Spacey and Shakin"
deserves a cursory listen at the very least. Brent Hopkins B+
Underground leadman and critically-acclaimed solo artist Lou Reed
offers us his version of the "unplugged" album with "Perfect Night
Live in London." This non-MTV-affiliated acoustic album is taken
from a performance on July 3rd, 1997, where Reed mixed the old with
the new in an enjoyable, relaxed show. While not a hummable,
strum-along kind of acoustic live record such as 10,000 Maniacs'
"Unplugged", and not emotional and dark like Neil Young's
"Unplugged" or Nirvana's "Unplugged in New York", Lou Reed gives us
his own kind of the stripped-down style on stage like no one else
could. With his spoken-word type vocals and crystal-clear guitar
skills, Reed delivers a variety of tracks, including old favorites
such as "I'll Be Your Mirror," "The Kids" and "Vicious." Only two
numbers really stand out in this hook-less effort: the satirical
yet ridiculous "Sex With Your Parents" and the haunting classic,
"Perfect Day." With the latter enjoying a new life with its
appearance in the British blockbuster, "Trainspotting" and its
re-recorded version a hit in the U.K., it almost begs to heard -
and Reed doesn't disappoint in his delivery. Neither showy nor
passionate, "Perfect Night Live…" serves up the goods without
bowing to the usual pop conventions. Depending on who you are, this
will give you reason to ignore it or eat it up. Mike Prevatt B
easy listening to those looking for hardcore with their latest
release, "Master of Styles." The Urge incorporates more ska and
reggae styles into their blend of power chords and driving bass
lines. The drums sound absolutely tight with drummer John Pessoni
laying down a fast and rhythmic foundation for bassist Karl
pioneered the mixing together of ska and reggae with funk, punk and
metal. The Urge's cover of "Gene Machine" crunches with the punk
style in full effect, with the quiet moments that makes it easier
to listen to than their previous work. "My Apology" is another song
that makes The Urge seem more mature than they were in the past.
Jerry Jost's guitar work is solid, yet sometimes reminiscent of Van
Halen – which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
like the radio-friendly "Jump Right In" and "Divide and Conquer,"
whose reggae foundation keeps the melody sweet. Some of the
drawbacks of "Master of Styles" are Steve Ewing's vocals, which
give a somewhat drab delivery of his lyrics on most of the
lyricist he is fairly strong. But to get to that alt-funk crowd,
The Urge has taken on more structure to their songs. That, along
with the melodies, makes this album worth adding to your music
catalog. Michael Nazarinia B

Will Build Your Own ASP.NET 4 Website help me with university assignment?
Hi there,
I need to find a book and fast on how to build a simple online store in visual basic.net. No mvc/razor just the visual studio IDE, vb.net and sql. The tutorials at uni are rubbish and outdated (using VS 2008 when we are using VS 2010)
So to recap, once finished with this book will I be able to easily adapt the "intranet" site to a simple online store? If so, should I go for the 3rd or 4th edition (Can't use mvc/razor)
Thank you in advance

Swedish researchers have discovered that elite soccer players achieve higher scores on certain tests of cognitive ability than their lower division colleagues, and both sets of players do better than the general public!
Over the moon
It seems it's all about 'executive functions' and working memory. Specifically that successful players are able to constantly assess the situation, compare what's going on with past experiences, create new possibilities and make quick decisions. In short it's all about making fast decisions under extreme time pressure. Sounds great! Do the England team know about this?
Sick as a parrot
Of course, there may be a physical explanation. Sports psychologists have known for a while that cognitive abilities are correlated with aerobic capacity. So it may just be that footballers, and other athletes, do better simply because they're fitter. Mind you, if all this is true, it's a good argument for getting out there and doing a bit more exercise…

Hi Qt Symbian experts.
We are a games developer and publisher of games for mobile devices (J2ME, iPhone, Android etc.) and consoles (DS, PSP).
We have our in-house middleware that handles compilation for multiple platforms, both Java/J2ME and C++ targets.
Traditionally, we have always done the following when doing our multiplatform games:
1. Develop a reference version (in out own reduced-Java-like language) with full feature set, that runs on our PC framework/runtime.
2. Deploy it for J2ME targets (including Symbian J2ME targets) and Android.
3. Deploy it for C++ targets (DS, PSP, iPhone).
Now the thing is, while this approach works, it does not quite do the Symbian devices good justice in terms of graphics and sound performance (the J2ME implementation is still somewhat lacking behind native performance it seems).
Normally when distributin through the tradional carriers portals and such, this approach for mobiles, made sense, since most carriers didn't accept native apps.
But now since we have the Ovi Store, we gather it is "relatively" easier now to do native games for Symbian devices. We have seen a couple of native games on the store, and the quality pf those games are significantly better in terms of gfx performance and sound.
My questions are:
- If we were to add Symbian native support in our in-house build-tool and engine, what API would make the most sense to use, the old S60 API/Avkon (or whatever it is called) or Qt?
- If using Qt, will it be possible to have fast access to framebuffers and fullscreen drawing, alpha channel support, multi-channel sound etc.?
- We are mainly doing 2D games, but like to use 3D api's to able to rotate and scaling sprites etc. What is good practice here on S60 and/or Qt?
- Does it make more sense to bypass Qt and/S60 gui entirely, and grab low-level draw API's instead? (Do such even exist and how?)
The thing is, we are not sure, that doing a S60 API version is the best way to go, since we do not have much experience with it, and secondly we want the process to be as smooth as possible (it is all a question of economics and potential sale etc.).
We would really like to be able to deliver top-notch, perhaps on par with iPhone (or close) games for the Symbian devices.
What do you think?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards,
Henrik Weide, Progressive Media.

Thursday night, Denver-Tripoli's Brandon Sorenson began his quest to be the next four-time state wrestling champ.
Sorenson passed his first test with a major decision over Assumption's Tionte Parks to move one step closer. As he chases history, Coach Chris Krueger says Sorenson is approaching this year differently.
"He just wants to stay focused on one match at a time and not going to get caught up in the hoopla and everything that's surrounding him," Denver-Tripoli Head Coach Chris Krueger said. "He knows what's out there, and what he's trying to accomplish, and just doesn't want and distractions at this point, and just wants to keep at it."
Teammate Chase Shedenhelm also moved on needing just 21 seconds in his opening match at 182.
West Delaware's team title hopes got a big boost right off the bat with a pin at 106 by Patrick Woods.
Teammate Zach Less followed suit with a hard fought decision at 113. In all, seven Hawks advanced in the championship bracket.
Union would also move on four wrestlers spurred on by defending champ Max Thomsen's tech fall at 126.
"I'm feeling good. I'm just going to keep on my feet, stay away from everybody, and try to do the same thing I did last year, but I'm going to try to separate myself more," Union Sophomore Max Thomsen said.
Decorah's Andy Hovden got the job done at 220 after a 3, nothing decision.
Undefeated 120 pounder Leighton Gaul of New Hampton picked up a major decision. His road to the state title, however, goes through Charlie Jones, the defending champ from Waterloo Columbus ended his match early pinning Creston's Wyatt Thompson in the first period.
"I'm happy with my start," Columbus Senior Charlie Jones said. "I set up my shots really well, and executed fine, so if I can carry that in to tomorrow I'll be fine."
