This magnificent varnished wall could be considered the western continuation of the Black Velvet Wall. The approach is rather more involved, of course, and this seems to have limited its popularity.
Getting There
Walk in on the main Black Velvet trail and follow it into the southern branch of the canyon. Scramble up the short wall and continue up canyon past the start of Epinephrine. About two or three hundred yards past Epineprine, the canyon is again split (this time by a formation called the Corduroy Ridge). The left branch is the one we want. To reach it, you must climb a smooth, low-angle friction slab. There are several protection bolts on this short pitch.

Hello everyone,
I have been using Carbide C++ Express ever since it came out and have learnt lots about it. There is no doubt that its a very good software, especially when you come to think of it that its for free as well.
However, I had one question...Codewarrior has something called the Call Stack in its Debug view, through which you can trace back how the particular function was called. its kind of like a "Step Back". It shows you all the functions that were called before you came to the current breakpoint.
Now Carbide C++ has something similar as well. The Stack view ( the window where it shows all the thread numbers when you Debug, upper right corner window). however, in this case all the calls are in the form of DLL file names and not functions which makes it really confusing.
So my question is ...how can we change this view so it shows the actual fucnion call and not the DLL from where the function was called. For e.g If you debug In the hello world example with a breakpoint on helloAppui::Handle EventL() function call, then in the stack you will see AVKON.DLL being called before that...I want it to show me what function was called before helloAppui::Handle EventL() in the AVkon.DLL...just like codewarrior does.
Thank You in advance.

Authorities in eastern Nevada believe the disappearance of a Reno man back in April may be the work of a serial killer.
As we reported back in April, 86-year-old Patrick Carnes disappeared while driving from Toledo, Ohio to Reno on Interstate 80 in Humboldt County. His Subaru was found abandoned about 20 miles east of Winnemucca. The military veteran was traveling with his dog, Lucky.
Now Humboldt County Undersheriff Curtis Kull says it looks like the car was dumped there since it was on the wrong side of the road for the direction Carnes was going. He says another car was found five years earlier, abandoned in the same spot a month after its driver, Reno woman Judith Casida, disappeared. "She has never been found since."
On the night of April 13th, Carnes was pulled over a few miles east of Wells by the NHP. It was the last place he was seen alive. A dash cam video recording of that encounter shows Lucky's wagging tail in the back seat.
Kull has studied every snippet of the video including a grainy freeze frame shot of a tractor trailer with which Carnes seemed to be traveling in tandem. Carnes even mentioned to the trooper that he was following the trucker to Elko, and then he said something prophetic. "I'll never drive at night again."
Interstate 80 is a major artery for the nation, busy with all sorts of traffic during the day but after the sun goes down in the big lonesome, and darkness swallows up the high desert, truckers are pretty much all that you see.
As Kull has searched for Pat Carnes, he's also developed an interest in Grant Moedl of Rexburg, Idaho across the state line. Moedl vanished a month before Carnes did; to the east, Utah authorities are looking for a young man who disappeared in may along I-80 near Dugway and to the west, an elderly hitchhiker vanished in April in that state's Humbolt County.
Is it possible that the trucker who was traveling with Pat Carnes is a killer, even a serial killer, maybe a husband and wife team who somehow gained Carnes trust along the road? "We got into the scenario with truckers. Pat, prior to getting into computers, was a trucker in southern California and had an admiration for truckers, trusted truckers," says Kull.
The Carnes family thinks there could be many more cases out there than anyone knows. "The car was found. How many disappeared with no car, so you don't even know that maybe this is the area where they disappeared. If you don't find the car, if he hadn't got stopped outside Wells, we wouldn't have known he got this far," says son Tom. He along with brothers Jim and Ken have been looking any possible clues since their father's disappearance.
In 2009, the FBI established a task force to look at serial killers working as truck drivers. Since then, the bureau has profiled more than 200 possible trucker killers and more than 500 murder victims, many of them prostitutes. At least 10 suspected serial killers have been arrested, including Chester Todd who was picked up in February in Las Vegas, suspected in a string of rapes and murders. The bureau has a map of possible trucker slayings, including six in Nevada, but, has done little to publicize its task force and did not want to speak on camera. Kull, who has only 15 officers to cover 10,000 square miles, didn't know such a task force existed until he was notified. The bureau is now lending its expertise to the search for Carnes and a possible serial killer in a big rig.
At this point, the truck driver is only wanted for questioning and is not considered a suspect. "There is somebody out there who had to see something. I'm not saying they saw it and are not talking but out of the corner of your eye you saw something and kept going…."
The missing Idaho man and his car have since been found, underwater in a reservoir. Foul play is not suspected.

By Brent Glasgow firstname.lastname@example.com
Hendricks County Flyer
---- — BROWNSBURG — After his team escaped with a 1-0 victory against Danville earlier this season, Plainfield boys' soccer coach Dave Knueve knew Monday's sectional opener against the Warriors would be a battle.
The teams went to halftime scoreless, but Plainfield scored two goals over the final 18 minutes for a 2-0 win to reach the second round.
"Danville's a real good team, and they put a lot of pressure on us mentally and physically," Knueve said. "We were able to find the back of the net twice. I'm sorry to see their seniors moving on, but I'm happy for us to be moving on."
Despite six corner kicks, Danville had just one shot on goal, as Plainfield defenders thwarted many would-be opportunities in the box.
"That's what we talk about defensively, getting your body between the ball and the goal, and we were able to do that quite a few times," Knueve said. "It was a big part of the victory."
In addition to coping with Plainfield's defense, Danville had a handful of open shots miss their intended mark.
"We had a couple games like this, where the balls went just wide, we kicked it over from inside the six and just couldn't score," Danville coach Drew Brokamp said. "We had good chances. They finished two of theirs and we didn't."
Plainfield had two good scoring looks in the first half, but a save by Danville's Zach Blankenship denied Kaleb Preston, and a shot by Ryan Wolfe hit the crossbar.
Danville's best opportunity came with 14 minutes left in the opening half, when Christian Mason fed Jacob Verble, but Verble's shot sailed just over the goal.
After near-misses by Wolfe and Preston early in the second half, Caleb Law scored Plainfield's first goal with 18 minutes left.
Danville nearly tied it three minutes later when Tanner Perkins headed a perfect corner kick by Daniel Gerber, but it just missed the goal.
Plainfield iced it with six minutes remaining when Connor Cutler took a left-to-right cross from Law in the box and put it in.
Brokamp said Danville's season, which saw the Warriors go 13-4 and win the Sagamore Conference for the first time in a decade, was memorable throughout.
"I'll remember this team, especially for the 11 seniors we had," Brokamp said. "I think a lot of people didn't expect us to be this good after losing a lot of key players from last year, but these guys stepped up."
Plainfield (11-5-2) will face Brownsburg at 7 p.m. Wednesday, with a chance to avenge an earlier 2-1 loss to the Bulldogs.
"It was a good match the first time, and I hope to see the same type of competition along with us getting the win on Wednesday," Knueve said.

Tim Tebow, the one-time Denver Broncos wunderkind who is now an ESPN commentator, may end up back in the Mile High City, suited up and ready to throw a football.
Only not as a Denver Bronco.
Tebow has been offered a job as quarterback for the Denver Gold, a still-theoretical team of the newly christened A-11 pro football league, according to Denver Post columnist and ESPN regular Woody Paige.
The A11FL, as it's called, already has six teams enrolled — in New Jersey, Chicago, LA, Tampa Bay, Dallas and San Francisco. The finalists for the remaining two franchises for its inaugural season are Detroit and Denver.
"We would love to have Tim Tebow join our league," commissioner Scott McKibben told Paige, in an article in the Denver Post. "We have talked with his lawyer, and his agent, and we have made an offer."
The offer includes a percentage of team ownership, Paige reported.
The upstart A11FL league joins a long list of often ignominious predecessors, including the short-lived XFL, which lured viewers with WWF-style shenanigans like sending a cameraman into the cheerleader's locker room during breaks. The XFL was also panned for the poor quality of play on the field and it was disbanded after its debut season.
Most recently, Denver had a team in the Arena League, the Colorado Crush, which was owned by Broncos general manager John Elway.
McKibben told Paige the new league would learn from the past and not try to compete with the NFL.
"We're not making mistakes other leagues did. We always will be a spring league," he said. "We're an aspiration league. There are hundreds of quality players who aspire to play in the NFL, and we'll provide them with a chance to prove themselves. We'll be playing in major population and media markets in NFL stadiums, and we have the No. 1 sports network partner in ESPN."
Although he's signed with the network, Tebow can bow out of his contract if he wants to play ball. He had an up and down two seasons with the Broncos that were often more notable — and controversial — for his knee-bending prayers than his athleticism. He was traded in 2011 to the New York Jets, but was released last April. He retains a large fan base in Colorado.

Guide Review - 'Gone With the Wind' Summary
Gone With the Wind is the famous and controversial American novel by American writer, Margaret Mitchell. Here, she draws us into the lives and experiences of a myriad of colorful characters during (and after) the Civil War. Like William Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet, Mitchell paints a romantic tale of star-crossed lovers, torn apart and brought back together--through the tragedies and comedies of human existence.
Margaret Mitchell wrote, "If Gone With the Wind has a theme it is that of survival. What makes some people come through catastrophes and others, apparently just as able, strong, and brave, go under? It happens in every upheaval. Some people survive; others don't. What qualities are in those who fight their way through triumphantly that are lacking in those that go under? I only know that survivors used to call that quality 'gumption.' So I wrote about people who had gumption and people who didn't."
The title of the novel is taken from Ernest Dowson's poem, "Non Sum Qualis eram Bonae Sub Regno Cynarae." In the poem, there's the line: "I have forgot much, Cynara! gone with the wind."

Improved Radio-TV Sync How-To
Improved instructions for setting up RadioDelay to synchronize your AM or XM radio or MLB Gameday Audio with baseball on the television. Now you can enjoy baseball again with Tim McCarver and Joe Buck muted while you enjoy more intelligent and cogent commentary from Jon Miller, David B. Flemming, and Kruk and Kuip. Life is good. I clearly have way too much time on my hands, but since the Giants are in the playoffs I feel that it's worth it. I added screen shots of the various settings for those who are not sound engineers. UPDATE: Mac users can try Garageband to add delay. See: http://www.botecomm.com/bote/radio/radiodelay_mac.html Mac screen shots have been added Tuesday afternoon. Thanks to Chris Gonzalez for the Mac notes on Garageband. Respect the Dangle!

Not only can the first generation core skills can be optimized but we can more clearly understand the brain based training and its impact on the whole training process. This new level of understand of the inner workings of the brain can assist athletes to perform more consistently at new heights quicker! Measuring the functional state of the Brain and central nervous system provides information about the quality of communication in the brain, resistance to training stress, and levels of activity/rest. The brain is the major factor affecting day-in, day-out performance; everything else are just the outputs. In the application of second generation applied sport psychology we measure this and provide training tools to help understand peak performance and make it more consistent. Mastery in sports requires three critical factors: practice, benchmarking current abilities, and consistent feedback. Without benchmarking and consistent feedback, performance is often erratic. Athletes may appear to simply "go through the motions" at practice and be unsure of how they will perform in competition. Second generation Sport Psychology provides a high level understanding using the latest advances in neuroscience, sport psychology, and exercise science. Consistent performance requires more than just "thinking positively," but rather assisting athletes to control the controllables by not only being told, but rather experiencing, seeing, and making real neurological changes in the brain in real-time.

SportingNews: Cam Newton best arm strength and accuracy in the class but not a first round prospect
The link takes you to the SportingNews WarRoom page because the following is an excerpt from their draft preview magazine. The person in the cubicle next to me was reading it so I snatched it (naturally) and found some bits to share with the Rumblers. Their positional rankings and scouting are based on War Room Scouts and SportingNews claims they are based on watching film of every single game in college. To demonstrate how this scouting has given them some unique results the magazine lists Jimmy Smith as the best cornerback prospect, Mark Ingram as the fourth best running back, Marcel Dareus is their third rated DT, and they claim the offensive tackle class gets a grade of A+ with Anthony Castonzo as a top 10 talent and Solder and Tyron Smith joining him as elite prospects in their mind. As you can see, they arent afraid to tell you what they think. So here are their QB thoughts: Strongest Arm: Cam Newton - Newton has rare, elite arm strength and has consistently shown the ability to throw the ball way down the field with excellent zip and accuracy. There is no question that he has the arm strength that few NFL quarterbacks possess." Most Accurate: Cam Newton - While Newton made a lot of throws last season at Auburn that he will never even try in the NFL, he was remarkably accurate on film. What was most impressive was his ability to make throws of 20-plus yards accurately. He did so when he needed to make touch passes and when he was called to put a lot of zip on the ball. Despite these incredible reviews, Cam Newton was still ranked fourth on their QB prospect list with Gabbert as 1, Kaepernick as 2, and Ponder as 3. They graded these guys different facets out of 9 and to give you an idea: Arm Strength: Newton (9), Gabbert (8), Kaepernick (7), Ponder (5) Accuracy: Newton (8), Gabbert (7.5), Kaep (7), Ponder (6) Field Vision: Ponder (8), Kaep (7), Gabbert (6.5), Newton (5.5) Running Ability: Newton (9), Kaep/Gabbert (8), Ponder (7.5) Intangibles: Ponder (9), Kaep (8.5) Gabbert (8), Newton (5.5) Other: Quickest Release - Nathan Enderle (Idaho), Most Dangerous Runner - Tyrod Taylor (Virginia Tech), Most Battle-Tested - Greg McElroy (Alabama) SportingNews says the risk is too high with Newton and that no QB with his types of red flags has ever become successful in the NFL. Go buy the magazine if you're interested in more, or just steal it from a co-worker like I did! These guys definitely go out on some limbs and I found it refreshing and worth the read through.

Online Innovations has spent over a decade helping businesses get more from the web. We help businesses define their online brand through building websites, promoting them and integrating social networking strategies around them.
We concentrate a huge amount of time and effort keeping up-to-date with the developments in the social platforms, focusing on the role that they are playing - and going to play - in our lives. Social media has not reached maturity yet. New platforms are constantly blipping up on the radar (all hoping that a network will jump on and in-so-doing become the next big thing) and the established social platforms constantly playing catch up with one another - who knows how the cards are going to fall.
As social media, Facebook and Twitter are here to stay - that we can bank on. But what of Google? Clearly, they understand the importance of social media but left the starting blocks a little late and have been playing catch up ever since.
Googles search engine goal is to provide their customers the best possible search results pertaining to their search query.
So how does it rank results in the search engine results pages (SERPs)? Primarily it references 2 main criteria; context and popularity.
When Google indexes a website it analysers the content and identifies the keywords and keyword phrases and by-so-doing contextualizes the website.
But what if the content is added by a webmaster that does not have the training to optimize the content for search engine indexing? A common problem now that content management is so popular. Or what if the webpage contains video? It is very informative, superbly so in most cases, but contains little text. How does Google interpret that?
Common sense says that the more people that link to a website, the more popular and the relevant the website should be. Or is it?
This exposes the process to abusive practices like spam, where black-hat SEOers create and sell back links added to blogging sites and so forth.
Considering the above, the social platforms are perfect media to reference the context and popularity of websites. Viz. if people are talking about the website then it must be good and popular, right?
Google needs to monitor what websites are being spoken about. But there is a turf war and the popular social platforms can restrict Googles access to their systems and in this lies the importance of Google + (to Google anyway).
Google+ has taken a hammering since its launch and most have the opinion that they have had to chase after Facebook, who lets face it have the market on the social media front. This frantic chase has resulted in many mistakes that I am sure left the Google team a little red faced at times, and also left many of us confused and frustrated.
Then, Google converted their Google Places Local Business Listings to Google+ Pages and I believe that changed everything.
Business owners have been forced to start scratching around in Google+, to not only claim their Places record but make sure that the Places record sends the right message. In so doing, they have become more familiar with the fantastic business opportunities and tools Google has to offer.
Yes, we all know of Analytics, YouTube, AdSence, etc but we have never really been fully committed. There was always something that stopped us from full adoption. That reason was having to use a Gmail address as the primary email address.
Not that Gmail is bad, far from it, but for anyone who is serious about their brand, online or otherwise, having a matching email address to their domain name is about as basic as it gets. Having worked towards a consolidated online brand, sending your emails from Gmail and having all your Google Applications referencing your Gmail accounts as the primary email address, just seems like a step in the wrong direction.
This can be achieved by subscribing to Google Apps.
Google Apps is a service from Google, providing independently customizable versions of several Google products under your domain name.
There is a misconception that you need to spool your email through Google to have an Apps account. This is not the case - if you are running your own Exchange server Googles Mail can be disabled.
It features several web applications with similar functionality to traditional office suites, including Gmail, Google Cloud services, Google Calendar, Talk, Docs and Sites. But most importantly it allows businesses to consolidate all their Google Applications and Tools (like Analytics, Webmaster Tools, Places, YouTube, Plus, etc) into one profile. Added to this, administrators can also create additional accounts and assign users access and responsibilities to all or specific tools and applications.
While it all sounds so easy, it is best that you consult a Google Reseller to guide you through the process and manage the entire setup for you. An unqualified decision in the beginning can cost you dearly in the long run.
Online Innovations are Google Resellers and have a deep understanding of Google, the applications that Google provides, how they link together, the migration- capabilities and restrictions, and how businesses can best take advantage of them.
Talk to us. Money well spent on getting it right - from the start - translates into massive savings and value benefits in the future.

It's complicated....
The Chargers were "granted an extension Wednesday to sell the roughly 1,000 remaining tickets to lift the local TV blackout." Last Saturday's game against the Bears was not broadcast until later. "With apologies to "Saturday Night Live" hosts, we say: "Tape-delayed from San Diego, it's Saturday Night Chargers!'' This is what the article says about us: "The Raiders? Once Chargers fans stayed away because of Raiders fans; now Raiders fans cower because the Raiders stink." Rise, SD Raiders brethren! I am pretty sure this writer is spewing lies to encourage attendance at the games, but that's an outrageous claim.
No surprises at all here. The only area that the Raiders have the advantage at is secondary and d-line. Nnamdi Asomugha is sick. Hopefully Jackson has a little luck against him. What do you guys think? Also, from the same site, none of their experts give the Raiders a chance haha. Hopefully that doesn't mean this is a trap game. http://www.sdnn.com/sandiego/2009-10-30/sports/sdnn-expert-picks-chargers-raiders
Along with San Diego, the raider will be considered one of the teams to move to LA. Knowing Al Davis's history with the city of industry, he will be a factor in any team moving into LA. If they do...

Bay City News—A big-rig driver has been sentenced to 20 years in state prison for shooting at two Oakland police officers three years ago.
Colin Todd, 44, of Alameda, was initially charged with two counts of attempted murder on a police officer as well as two counts of willful and premeditated attempted murder. He could have faced life in prison without the possibility of parole if he had been convicted of any of those charges. But the Alameda County District Attorney's Office recently allowed Todd to plead to two counts of the lesser charge of assault with a deadly weapon, and Judge Carrie Panetta approved the plea agreement at his sentencing hearing on Monday.
The charges stemmed from an incident that began at about 3:45 a.m. on Aug. 30, 2009, when the two officers noticed a flatbed big-rig weaving erratically in the 1100 block of 66th Avenue in Oakland.
The officers activated their lights and sirens, but Todd, who was driving the big-rig, didn't immediately pull over, according to police. The officers followed him until he stopped on an on-ramp to northbound Interstate Highway 880 just south of Coliseum Way.
Todd then got out of the big-rig and began firing at the two officers, police said. One of the officers returned fire, and the other was struck in the foot by a bullet, according to police. That officer was treated at a hospital and released.
After shooting at the officers, Todd got back into the big-rig and drove north on Highway 880, police said.
Other officers pursued Todd because the first officers' vehicle was riddled with bullet holes and wasn't working, he said. The pursuit ended on Highway 880 near the 3700 block of East Ninth Street when the big-rig drove into a guardrail and overturned.
Todd ran from the scene of the crash and managed to hide until just before 11:30 a.m. that day, when he was taken into custody, police said. Todd wasn't hit by gunfire and didn't need to be hospitalized, according to police.

New camera!Tuesday, August 10, 2010 at 1:00 am | Posted in shopping | Leave a comment
My camera was getting a bit old, so I decided to get a new one before going on a one-month trip. I thought about getting a basic DSLR, but after a lot of thought, I came to the conclusion that, even though I wish I knew how to take nice pictures, I'm no photographer, not even an amateur one. So I got the camera below, a Canon Powershot SX210 IS.
Basically, I wanted a simple digital camera that could be easily taken everywhere and performed as good as possible in low light and at night. Oh, and good colour rendition was another concern. After a lot of reasearch online and checking it in the shop, I was convinced that this was the best for me; as simple as it is, it does enable me to control shutter speed and aperture, and it has some other nice features. Already tested it and, so far, so good!

As I dearly love reading, bookmarks are objects that I definitely pay attention to. My favourite ones, so far, have been the most basic, plain ones, made out of cardboard and with some interesting drawing or pattern printed on it. But while souvenir-hunting in Paris a few weeks ago, I came across this adorable little quotation mark (maybe a comma?) at Pylones and couldn't resist buying it. In fact, I bought one more to send to my mother, and she loved it, too!
As lovely as it is, it does squash the pages a little bit, but if it is a problem for somebody other than me, you might easily use it as any other bookmark, as it is not too thick. That's just what I've been doing and I have no complaints so far.

The Wikipedia article on yarn weight brings one good tool for knitters everywhere: a chart that shows you how to determine yarn weight according to the wraps per inch method and, subsequently, convert that into the -ply way of measure. It also helps in the conversion to different terminologies.

Door to nowhereFriday, July 30, 2010 at 4:45 pm | Posted in travel+city talk | 1 Comment
This was saved in my drafts' folder since before I went to France. I first came accross it while researching interesting places to visit while in Paris, but, when there, ended up completely forgetting about it, argh.
Photograph © Untapped Cities by Michelle Young
The door shown above is actually fake, meaning that it leads nowhere. The artists Julien Berthier and Simon Boudvin put it up in 30 minutes and there it rests until this very day. Well, actually I don't know that, but I can only assume, since it stayed put for over four years (can a door not stay put? I don't think it'd fancy stretching its joints every now and then… Yeah, so funny.). Anyway, my favourite thing in it is the number, 1bis. Despite thinking it's utterly crazy, I love how, whenever in need of one more number in the middle of two consecutives (uh?), the French just put a bis after the immediate anterior number. May I add that both France and England's way of numbering houses makes me quite desperate at times? Things in Brazil are definitely easier, what with the whole thing of having more or less 100m per block and having the numbers follow this system (yes, I don't know how to explain it properly, but, believe me, it is easier to locate oneself).

Quick polish post…Friday, July 30, 2010 at 10:16 am | Posted in beauty+fashion | Leave a comment
…just to show a few pictures.
Flying Dragon, Turned Up Turquoise and Ruby Pumps. The colours are not those, by the way. Tried hard, but I just couldn't make my camera or my brother's get the tones right. The turquoise one is particularly wrong. I blame today's terrible lightning!
Flying Dragon on my nails. Bad photo because, well, I'm a bad photohrapher. That and also I had to photoshop it a lot to make the colour a bit more similar to the real thing. The extremely fine red and blue glitter is not apparent in any of my shots, though.
Lambada and Rainbow. Colours are more or less like shown.
Detail from Rainbow, yay! Please, please, please, search for swatches of it and you'll see with much more ease just how flamboyantly beautiful this polish is.
From the choice of colours, it is clear that I'm not that discreet, right? I'm actually quite shy and quiet in person, so that's probably the reason why I'm so drawn to extravagant nailwear. No need to say that my father is not really into it, is there?
Gaiman, Pratchett and the end of the world as we know itThursday, July 29, 2010 at 5:00 pm | Posted in culture tidbits | Leave a comment
Tags: books, neil gaiman
Despite my laziness, I've been reading quite a bit recently. After The Handmaid's Tale, by Margaret Atwood, I needed something lighter and Good Omens was the best choice, really. I really love Neil Gaiman's novels and even though I had never read anything from Terry Pratchett before, I've read enough good reviews to want to give him a chance (ha, I'm sooo magananimous).
Anyway, while it didn't make me laugh like hell, it was definitely funny and worth reading. The book tells the story of the end of the world, sort of. The thing is the Antichrist is born and, eleven years later, he's bound to bring Armaggedon around. Aziraphale, an angel, and Crowley, a demon, both quite reluctant to let a planet they like so much become history, join forces in a desperate attempt to avoid the whole thing.
Full of unbalanced (for lack of a better word) characters, Good Omens keeps you hooked until the very end, which is imperative for me nowadays, as I seem to have completely obliterated any attention span I might've once had. But being so fun to read has a downside, too: the book finished much too quick. Still, can't really complain about it, as it was way easier for me to carry it around than the one I'm currently reading, Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell, by Susanna Clarke (more on it after I finish reading all the over a thousand pages.
Polish-obsessed, againThursday, July 29, 2010 at 1:30 am | Posted in beauty+fashion, shopping | Leave a comment
Lots of things have been going on, so let's try to update the blog little by little. Baby steps, you know?
First big news is that I finally found a place in London that carries China Glaze and OPI nail polishes. I was happy beyond reason, obviously, but I managed to hold myself and only got three bottles that were on offer: Flying Dragon, Turned Up Turquoise and Ruby Pumps, all by China Glaze (in order to check some swatches made by other bloggers, click on the name of the polish). Using Flying Dragon right now (pretty-pretty-pretty!), but as I've had some trouble with my camera, no pictures of it are available as of now.
And as I was looking for swatches of those three to decide which one I was going to use first, I came upon this wonderful flakie:
image from steph's closet
It is from Danish brand Gosh, found on Superdrug. As I had to go out anyway to buy a topcoat (the one I brought from Brazil is sorta off, after so many months without use), I decided to kill two birds with one shot only. Fortunately, I found it, but, unfortunately, it was part of a offer so I HAD to bring home a second colour – Lambada (the forbidden dance, according to an incredibly bad early 90s movie), a beautiful red. They also have this interesting holographic polish, but I couldn't find it today. The quest, therefore, continues.

AFTER 10 days of capacity crowds along Tamworth's Peel St, yesterday it was quiet again, save for the music of Charlie Saliba, the last busker in town.
When The Leader caught up with Mr Saliba yesterday, he was preparing to pack up his gear for another year and make the trek home to Budgewoi.
The singer, MC and some-time actor has been to the past 34 festivals and busked in Peel St for 33 of them.
He arrived in the city on January 16 and was outside Mathers every day, the business which has retained his services for many years.
He loves what he does, but fondly remembers the "good old days" when the Tamworth festival was "just country music, not a mixture like it is now", and each busker could make themselves heard.
"It's all about big amplification now and there's just no need for it," Mr Saliba said.
The financial rewards weren't as great anymore either, he said, although this year had proved more lucrative than the last.
Still, Mr Saliba loves to entertain and Tamworth is a chance to catch up with old friends and new.
"For the past few years I've said this'll be my last, but I always come back ... and I'll be back next year," he smiled.

Early Easter
My parents are going to Finland this week, and won't be here for Easter on Sunday. So we decided to have Easter dinner and our egg hunt a little early. The kids had a ball searching for Easter eggs in Grandma's back yard. So much so, that we had to "hide" the eggs all over again, so they could be found again. I didn't get any really good pictures, cause the kids were just too stinking quick, but here's one just because. There are a few more on flickr…

Inn at Pearl Street is such a beautiful B&B. I enjoyed every moment of my stay. I got in after office hours on Friday and was greeting by someone anyway...quick tour of the buildings...glass of wine on the deck...perfect way to start my weekend. Jessica was amazing and very sweet. I slept like a rock, loved my room (the Venetian), and all-in-all had a most wonderful weekend. Great options for breakfast, beautiful furnishing everywhere, great location to UT campus, Capitol Building and downtown. I requested a last-minute late check out and was granted one. I realize this may not always be doable, but I was so thankful nonetheless. STAY HERE!!

I proposed to my fiancee at this bed and breakfast earlier this month and they could not have made it a better experience for us!!! They first went out their way to help me get the room we had stayed in 8 years prior with three days notice, then they help me set up for the proposal, and then the amazing quality of the room did the rest!!! Jill and Jessica are such nice, amazing people and they alone make the experience well worth it!! But of course... the property and rooms are gorgeous so it is a win win!! We are considering Austin's Inn as our wedding venue now as well!!

Our stay at "Austins Inn at Pearl Street" was outstanding in every way and we plan to return soon. My wife and I appreciate early 1900's homes and to stay in a bed & breakfast in downtown Austin was great. All of our expectations were exceeded and I highly recommend the Austin Inn at Pearl Street.

The hospitality & accomodations were GREAT!!!! Jessica our hostest was AMAZING. However, we were disappointed with the breakfast options. We expect a delicious hot breakfast when staying at a B&B. The Austin Inn only offered a cold breakfast during our stay....

My husband and I stayed in the Safari Room on Fourth of July weekend. Our trip could not have been better. Our room was even better than it looked on the website. The room, bathroom, and private balcony were all so spacious. Jessica provided amazing hospitality and showed genuine concern for our comfort and well being. The continental breakfast each morning had a large variety of choices. We will definitely be returning to Austin's Inn at Pearl Street!

We booked this deal to escape before a family hiking trip and had a very relaxing day/night to recharge our batteries :-)

Very nice room and location near downtown. Construction across the street interrupted my sleep very early in the morning. I seemed to be the only guest in my building.

This place absolutely exceeded my expectations. The grounds were beautiful, the room was amazing and comfortable, and the service was exceptional. Everything about this place was perfect. Would definitely stay again! Cant wait to return!

Provided by Texas Tech Athletics
LUBBOCK, Texas – Former Texas Tech right-handed pitcher Nathan Karns made his Major League Baseball debut in a start for the Washington Nationals on Tuesday evening against the Baltimore Orioles during the Nationals' 9-3 win over the Orioles at Nationals Park.
Karns, 25, became the 24th Red Raider to make his MLB Debut while going 4.1 innings with three strikeouts while allowing three runs on five hits with two walks and two home runs allowed. Karns left the game in the fifth inning with one out with the Nationals leading 7-3 after throwing 85 pitches (50 strikes).
Karns is the 15th Texas Tech pitcher to make his MLB debut and is the sixth Red Raider to make a debut in a starting role. The last four years the Red Raiders have had five former pitchers make their MLB debuts (Dustin Richardson, Josh Tomlin, Zach Stewart, A.J. Ramos, Nathan Karns).
In addition, Karns is the first Red Raider to make his MLB debut as a starter and lead his team to a win since Josh Tomlin pitched seven innings during his Indians debut in 2010 in a 4-1 victory over the Yankees in Cleveland.
Karns becomes the second Red Raider from the 2009 MLB Draft class to make his big-league debut following right-handed pitcher A.J. Ramos who was called up and made his debut for the Miami Marlins last September. Karns was a 12th round draft pick by the Nationals and Ramos was a 22nd round pick by the Marlins.
Karns pitched two seasons at Tech (2008-2009) while ranking among team leaders both seasons in innings pitched and strikeouts. During his Tech career he won eight games with 104.1 innings pitched with 105 strikeouts in 25 starts.
Karns entered the season ranked as the No. 6 prospect in the Nationals organization after being named the organization's Minor League Pitcher of the Year in 2012 following a standout season that included an 11-4 record and 2.17 ERA in 24 outings (18 starts) with 116.0 innings pitched, 148 strikeouts and 47 walks allowed. His ERA and strikeout totals led all Washington minor league pitchers.

In their hunt for a suspect in Tuesday night's Rossmoor stabbing attack, authorities are asking any other witnesses to come forward.
At 9:11 p.m., a 28-year-old woman suffered three stab wounds inflicted by a man who attacked her while she was jogging in the upscale community , according to Jim Amormino, Orange County Sheriff'es Department spokesman.
The woman, a Rossmoor resident, was released from Los Alamitos Medical Center late Tuesday night or early Tuesday morning in stable condition, Amormino said.
"Every available investigator is on the case," said Jim Amormino Orange County Sheriff's Department spokesman. "We're going to door-to-door trying to locate any additional witnesses."
Officials are still searching for the suspect. Originally, deputies thought there might be a composite sketh
"Nobodies in custody," Amormino said. "Hopefully, they will be, but no one's caught right now."
According to Amormino, the woman was grabbed from behind and stabbed at 9:11 p.m. Tuesday while she jogged on Bostonian Drive
Though hurt, the woman knocked the knife out of the assailant's hand, but he managed to knock her down and stabbed her two more times, Amormino said, adding that the victim was stabbed in the face, arm and hand, suffering non- life-threatening wounds.
Hearing the woman's screams, a resident of the upscale community rushed outside, and the assailant fled on a BMX bicycle, Amormino said.
Amormino said the assailant was a thin Latino man in his early 20s,
about 5-foot-7 to 5-foot-9, wearing dark clothing and a baseball cap.
Originally, officers had hoped the vicitim would be able to help them create a sketch of the man but, Amormino said, "she was not able to provide any specific details."
It's unclear what motivated the attack, Amormino said.
"He made no attempt to sexually assault her," Amormino said, "and he didn't say one word. She said he looked angry."
Robbery appears unlikely, as well, since most joggers would not have money on them, Amormino said.
Amormino said because the attacker's intentions have not been determined, the victim's name has not been released.
Anyone with information about the incident is asked to call (866) TIP-OCSD or (714) 628-7170.

Avoid Amazon -- Buy These Cheaper Stocks Instead
NEW YORK (Stockpickr) -- A couple of more bricks just got chipped off of the bricks-and-mortar foundation.
Old line stores -- derisively called "bricks and mortar" for their legacy way of selling merchandise -- just completed another ignominious milestone. Market share shrank as the online retailers made continued headway, led by mighty Amazon.com (AMZN). According to Web traffic monitoring firm Comscore.com, online sales rose roughly 15% in November and December compared with a year ago. That compares with zero growth through traditional retail channels. Online holiday sales, which hit $32.6 billion in 2010, appear set to approach $37 billion in 2011.
>>5 Stocks Hedge Funds Favor for 2012
This ongoing migration carries two implications. First, traditional retailers may need to think about closing more stores in 2012 as the least-trafficked outlets fail to generate enough sales to cover fixed overhead costs. Second, online retailers can count on still-expanding profit margins as they leverage higher revenue over their fixed costs.This all should be an endorsement for Amazon.com, the undisputed heavyweight champion of the online sales arena. Amazon is on track to boost sales at least 40% in 2011, another 30% in 2012 to around $65 billion, with more gains likely to come after that. Trouble is, Amazon is an awfully expensive stock based on near-term results. An investment in Amazon now is a bet on a much higher sales and profit base five years down the road. How's this for an eye-opener? Amazon trades for 147 times projected 2011 profits, and looking ahead to 2012, that multiple falls to a still-lofty 88.

Cruising in the Whitsundays
We have had some guests in the last month who have had their Whitsunday Islands holiday on-board a cruise ship. It is cruising season in the Whitsundays. In fact when the Queen Mary 2 arrived last month, it was one of four to visit within the week. It was, of course, the largest!
Today is the turn of the Black Watch, which has 421 cabins and is 205 metres long. She is on a 26 night cruise Singapore to Sydney and will spend four days cruising through Queensland waters, spending some time at Hamilton Island and on the Great Barrier Reef. Black Watch will be giving their passengers Great Barrier Reef accommodation with a difference.
When the ships visit Hamilton Island they anchor off Pebble Beach, giving qualia guests and those in the northern Hamilton Island Holiday Homes a great view.
Tenders deliver passengers to the marina to enjoy Hamilton Island, take scenic flights or play a round at the golf course at Dent Island. Others join a Whitsunday Islands cruise to Whitehaven Beach.

Cleveland (WOIO) - Kyrie Irving isn't the best point guard in the NBA...yet....but he's well on his way. The rest of the NBA found that out firsthand during the All-Star festivities, as Kyrie clearly stole the show, and I'm talking Friday through Sunday.
So who's ahead of Kyrie at this point? Chris Paul. The Clippers guard, and All-Star game MVP, isn't the scorer that Irving is, throwing down 16.6 per game (compared to Kyrie's 23.5), but on his team, he doesn't have to be, and he's incredibly creative at finding his teammates, and racking up 9.6 assists per game.
Then there's Derrick Rose, the Bulls guard, who hasn't played since tearing his ACL last May. You can't lose your position to injury (unless you're Alex Smith), and you can't lose your spot on my Top Point Guards list to injury. But...it will be interesting to see how strongly Rose comes back.
Bottom line, Kyrie, at 20, is already in the top 3. And Paul and Rose shouldn't look back, because somebody's definitely on them.

|Contractor backs Ottoville waterline work with 5-year warranty

OTTOVILLE — Miller Construction is standing behind a waterline project on Auglaize Street in Ottoville.
Ottoville Village Council called a special meeting Tuesday night to allow Josh Clay of Miller Construction and residents of the village the opportunity to discuss the frozen waterline issues that affected Auglaize Street this past winter.
Close to a dozen residents voiced their concerns regarding the construction of the roadway and the depth of the service pipes in relation to why their pipes froze during what Clay describes as "The Perfect Storm."
"Tearing up the road would be counter-productive and homeowners should get what they paid for," Clay said. "I'm proposing a five-year warranty, extending the guarantee to October 2018."
Residents and council members agreed the proposed extended warranty was an acceptable solution to the problem.
Brian Goubeaux, lead engineer from Choice One Engineering, said with the five-year warranty, if the pipes are not deep enough, it will be discovered.
By mid-February, the majority of the houses — eight or nine — on the east side of Auglaize Street were being affected by frozen water lines. The village started getting reports of frozen pipes the second week of January.
As Clay and Goubeaux explained to residents and council during the Feb. 24 meeting, all the elements came together to cause the problems with the service lines.
After the water system was installed, the excavation was back-filled with compaction gravel and water was used to aid the process which traveled downward and deepened the frost line. In essence, given the time of the year construction was completed — the end of October — the water in the stone backfill never had time to evaporate before cold weather set in. As temperatures plummeted, so did the frost line, thereby freezing the trapped water around the copper service lines.
While council spoke on the frozen waterline issue at the March 24 meeting, Mayor Ron Miller reported he had spoken with Clay, who offered the village a 1-year extension on the warranty from October 2013 through October 2015. Residents expressed their concerns regarding the depth of the lines. Miller said he was ready to trench the street if indeed the lines are found to not be 36 inches deep.
