D.C. plans for sustainable future with building, waste, job initiatives

D.C. Mayor Vincent Gray is scheduled to release a sustainability plan Wednesday that calls for tightening up the District's Green Building Act, modernizing all public housing and public schools, expanding brownfield redevelopment incentives, introducing a "pay-as-you-throw" pricing structure for waste collection and creating a government-backed loan fund to support new business.
The plan, dubbed Sustainable D.C., follows up on the Earth Day 2012 release of the Sustainable D.C. Vision, itself a follow-up to Gray's July 2011 announcement that D.C. should be the "healthiest, greenest and most livable city in the United States." Drafted over the course of about 20 months, the plan takes the broad goals found in the vision document — in the areas of jobs, development, health and wellness, equity and diversity, nature, climate, food and transportation — and puts 143 specific initiatives behind them.
"Not every proposal will work out just as envisioned; some details will be refined over time and some actions may fail, but with this implementation plan we will move forward with clear goals in sight," Gray writes in an introduction to the plan. "The end game will be a victory for our city and for this generation of Washingtonians and the next."
D.C. green initiatives such as the 2006 Green Building Act, energy benchmarking and the green building code are still in their infancy, but the plan proposes to ramp them up to levels unseen in order to meet 20-year benchmarks found in the vision statement.
"By setting ambitious goals for our built environment, energy, food, nature, transportation, waste, and water as well as for our economy, public health, community equality, and climate, we strengthen the District's commitment to the core values of quality of life, economic growth, and equal access to opportunity," the plan states.
Michael Neibauer covers economic development, chambers of commerce, transportation and politics.

Thursday's Impact Rating, Update on TNA's Ring Ka King and All Wheels Wrestling Projects
by Staff - May 05, 2012
- The May 3rd episode of TNA's Impact Wrestling scored a 0.98 cable rating with 1,400,000 viewers.
– TNA's All Wheels Wrestling project that was filmed last year was passed on by The Speed Network and handed off to Fuel TV as a potential project for them. Once Fuel brought on their UFC programming, the decision was made that they didn't want any pro wrestling on the network. AWW is still being shopped around to to other networks.
Regarding the future of Ring Ka King, their status depends on whether Endemol and the Colors Network want to order another season. There have been ongoing discussions about a new season but nothing confirmed yet. There have also been discussions about doing similar seasons locally in other countries.

Halloween preparations
New mountain bike, in Halloween colors, taken earlier this week before it started raining.
Look what I found inside my pumpkin last night! I think this makes the pumpkin sort of an anti-zombie, as its innards are procreating rather than decomposing.
Kiddo as steampunk aviator trapper chick. What you can't tell from the photo is that the LED's on the goggles have a fun animation where the colors swirl around the edges of the circle. Oh, and they blink randomly. (I made them based on an Adafruit project.)

Bike Loads
I ran across Chad putting together an amusing load for the bike trailer the other morning.
What wasn't immediately apparent was that he was towing another entire bike in the trailer attached to the back of one he was riding!

Spider hike
A couple of weeks ago, I signed us all up for a docent-led hike that would allow us into Montebello preserve after dark (normally not allowed). As an added side bonus, it was a spider-themed hike, which was a topic of interest for Nim. As an added incentive, I picked up a bucket of fried chicken on the way over, so there was a promise of greasy crunchy goodness for dinner up on the hill.
We started in the sun, with characteristic views of oak grassland:
It was dark for the hike back,
so we used red flashlights, which made the orb weavers look particularly Halloween-y.
We started in the sun, with characteristic views of oak grassland:
At this point of the day, one can find holes belonging to tarantulas and their close relatives. I would have dismissed this as a rodent hole, not knowing otherwise. However, the white thing is the remnants of an old egg sac that the arachnid (just below it) had cleared out of her nest. If you pick apart the old egg sac, you can actually see the skins from the initial molt of the baby spiders, as they grow a bit and molt before they head out into the big wide world.
Another member of Family Theraphosidae. We enjoyed our chicken right next to this one's house,
while also enjoying the sunset.
It was dark for the hike back,
so we used red flashlights, which made the orb weavers look particularly Halloween-y.
It is still kind of a spooky spider under normal light:
Most entertaining, however were the scorpions. I did not previously know that: (1) there are scorpions in the area, and (2) they fluoresce under UV light. One of the docents loaned Nim his flashlight so she could search for the eerie glimmer of glowing scorpions on the bank adjacent to the trail.

Riding around in the dark
I woke up excessively early on a recent Saturday morning, and decided to squeeze in a quick bike ride.
4:50 am: Roll out of bed and put on clothes.
4:55 am: Fill water bottles and attach flashlight to front of bike and freshly-charged taillight to back.
4:58 am: Roll down the driveway into the dark.
5:10 am: Marvel at the complete lack of traffic.
5:20 am: Turn off of Foothill up El Monte towards Moody. Note that flashlight being used as headlight has started blinking of its own accord despite being supposedly in a different setting. Still quite dark yet, reset setting to constant light.
5:22 am: Headlight blinking again. Weird. Its brains must be scrambled.
5:25 am: Wait -- last time flashlight was scrambled, it had a dying battery. While taillight was carefully plugged in the previous night, flashlight lasts a long time and I didn't bother to charge it. When was it last recharged?
5:27 am: Aha! Last recharged before we went to New Zealand. Lots of cave exploration and general use since then. Uh oh...
5:35 am: Blinking seems to be slower than it was. Hmmm. Heading into dark canyon. Count seconds. One second on, five seconds off. Look ahead while light is on, remember that section of road and ride through it until the next blink. This works going up, but won't be enough going down. Clearly, I must climb until it gets light.
5:40 am: Really quite dark back in the canyon. Reassure myself that it will be lighter once I hit the top of Moody and am on the ridge rather than down in a hole. Taillight working fine, and there aren't any cars on the road anyway.
5:42 am: Darkest part of canyon before climb gets steep. One second in every eight illuminated. Neat night sounds in the dark.
5:48 am: Top of Moody. A bit lighter here now that I can see the sky. Good thing too. Only one second in ten light. Head up Page Mill.
5:55 am: Slight descent. Still kind of dim out. One blink per 12 seconds. Be careful.
5:56 am: Heading back up. Easier.
6:00 am: Really enjoying the dim climb. One blink in 14 seconds.
6:05 am: Down to one blink in 16 seconds. Plausibly enough light from the sky that I don't need headlight to see.
6:08 am: Bright light approaches. Looks like an oncoming cyclist. Hope my light blinks on as he passes so I don't look like an idiot riding around in the dark with no light. It doesn't.
6:12 am: Enter the marine layer. Hope I pop through it. One blink in 20 seconds.
6:15 am: Trees precipitating drips from the fog. Who needs it??
6:20 am: Wait -- these new drips are sweat coming off of my hair. Not the fog any more.
6:22 am: Deer in the mist, staring at me. With horns.
6:25 am: Oooh -- out of the fog! Gently colored pre-sunrise sky.
6:27 am: Bunnies! Many bunnies streaking across the road.
6:29 am: Los Trancos parking lot -- what I consider to be the top. Looking pretty light, though sun not yet risen. Enjoy looking down on the fog bank blanketing the Bay Area below. 2100 feet climbed before sunrise. Definitely light enough to descend now.
6:30 am: Good thing, too, as light is down to one blink per 25 seconds.
6:34: What a goofy ride. Clearly I must now ride the dirt trails up and over Black Mountain to make a loop. Alas, trails don't open until sunrise. Have snack to kill time. (By the way, when is breakfast?)
6:42 am: Official sunrise. No longer against the rules to be in the open space preserve. Roll down to Montebello entrance and head onto trail.
6:47 am: Pretty. Not pictured is the coyote pack that sounds like it is having a party in the drainage below.
7:13 am: Ack, ack argh!!!!! Sun shining directly in eyes, squirrelly dirt descent. Can't see loose patches of gravel. Descend gingerly to paved road.
7:20 am: Hit paved road. Sun still in eyes. Can't see giant bike-eating potholes in the ugly top section of the road. Oh bother.
7:24 am: Hit main road, better pavement. Yay!
7:27 am: Hit fog layer descending. Brrrr....
7:31 am: Out the bottom side of the fog layer. Start seeing other cyclists going up.
7:45 am: Near bottom of descent. Cyclist count up to 13. Quite a number to be climbing Montebello before 8am on a Saturday morning.
7:50 am: What are all of these car-things doing out so early?? Bleah. Welcome to civilization.
8:15 am: Roll back into home driveway. Nim playing on the computer. Chad still in bed. Time to make breakfast.
A most enjoyable morning.
Nim now 5 feet, 2.5 inches. She heads off to 7th grade every morning,
and I just let her ride her bike to the park by herself. "I'll be back by 5," she says.

Former Raley's Executive Gets Nearly 4 Years For $3M Kickback Scheme

WEST SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) – A former Northern California supermarket chain executive has been sentenced to three years and 11 months in prison in connection with a kickback scheme that cost the supermarket chain more than $3 million.
Federal prosecutors say David John Magana, former advertising director for West Sacramento-based Raley's, was also ordered on Tuesday to pay $2.9 million in restitution.
Authorities say in one scheme, Magana had paper and printing companies that provided services to Raley's pay commissions to a co-conspirator, who then kicked money back to him. He allegedly hid the commissions by listing them as additional charges on invoices from the companies. Those invoices were paid by Raley's.
Magana pleaded guilty in February to conspiring to commit mail and wire fraud and money laundering. The two other defendants in the case have also been sentenced.

Displaying posts under "Domain Services"
Headliners added to NamesCon: Atallah, Alexander
Akram Atallah and Fiona Alexander have been added to the NamesCon agenda.
NamesCon, taking place in Las Vegas January 11-14, has added a couple big names to its agenda for the first full day of the conference.
On Monday, July 12, I will have a fireside chat with the president of ICANN's Global Domains Division, Akram Atallah (pictured). Atallah is in charge of generic domain operations, domain name industry engagement and web services at ICANN. This includes new top level domain names.
Fiona Alexander has also been added to the schedule for Monday, and will give opening remarks. Alexander is Associate Administrator, Office of International Affairs, NTIA, US Department of Commerce. It's the Department of Commerce that is involved with Verisign's contract to run .com, and it's also the group that currently assigns the contract for IANA functions. This is the contract currently at the center of much discussion about the U.S. government "giving up control" of the internet.
These are two big additions for NamesCon, and it shows the breadth of the conference. NamesCon is shaping up to appeal to all segments of the domain name industry.
Frank Schilling changes strategy for .Click launch
5 more Uniregistry domain names go into general availability next week. And for one of them, .click, Frank Schilling is taking a different strategy when it comes to holding back domain names.
In previous launches, Schilling's companies have registered thousands — even tens out thousands — of names ahead of general availability launch. That left frustrated domainers searching through the scraps. This was especially notable because Shilling said last January they they wouldn't hold many domains back.
With .click, the registry is only holding back single character domains. Also, because .Click has already passed the "controlled interruption" period for name collisions, there won't be a block list there.
In other words, a free-for-all. No premium pricing, no names held back.
Retail prices will also be $6.88 or less, Schilling says.

New TLDs should emulate the Startup.club model for premium domains
Program promotes .Club while also generating premium domain sales revenue.
.Club's new Startup.club program is ingenious, and something that other new top level domains should consider emulating.
Here's startup.club in a nutshell: get a premium .club domain name but pay it off over 10 years, and .Club will also give you PR and marketing support. Click to continue reading…
Judging by the sponsor list, NamesCon 2015 is going to be huge
Already 40 sponsors lined up for January's NamesCon event.
It may be hard to believe, but NamesCon 2015 is just two months away.
And, judging by an updated sponsorship list for 2015, it's going to be a very big conference.
Uniregistry is taking top billing for the event, and there are six Gold sponsors: Afilias, Endurance, GoDaddy, Verisign, Right of the Dot and TLD Registry.
I count 40 sponsors in all, not including media sponsors. That's a lot, and indicative of anticipated attendance at the event.
Last year's event pulled in over 500 people with just 3 months notice. I expect this year's attendance to be much higher.
But rather than making my own uneducated forecasts, tune in to the Domain Name Wire Podcast next week to hear all about the upcoming NamesCon conference from co-producer Jothan Frakes.
BuyDomains and the economics of large domain portfolios
Should very large domain name portfolios be valued per domain or on sales and profitability metrics?
The sale of BuyDomains.com this week, including a portfolio of close to a million domains for something less than $80 per domain, has raised eyebrows.
On Tuesday, I wrote a bit about the BuyDomains' business and how the valuation might make sense when viewed from a different perspective.
This post will go into a bit more depth, and compare BuyDomains to other domain portfolio business models. Click here to continue reading…

HoopsHype Dallas Mavericks rumors
Roster | Salaries | On Twitter | Twitters | Instagram
Earl K. Sneed: Expect for Raymond Felton to be returning to practice very soon. When he does, he will immediately begin serving his four-game suspension. Twitter @EarlKSneed
Would Carlisle consider resting Dirk Nowitzki, Tyson Chandler or any of his other 30-something players? "It's possible," he said. "We did a strategic rest thing once or twice last year. We did it more frequently when [Jason] Kidd was here and he was 38, 39. We're keeping an eye on all that. When it's appropriate, we'll certainly do it and we'll certainly consider it." Dallas Morning News
Nowitzki considers Stotts a close friend. That doesn't mean he's not above giving him a ribbing. "He knows our team well, and he basically stole all our plays," Nowitzki said. "We were going through the scouting report and I was like, we're going against our own plays. He took our whole playbook here to Portland. But I get along with him great and I wish him nothing but the best." Dallas Morning News
Before the question was even asked in its entirety, Dirk Nowitzki was ready to tap the brakes. The subject was Portland star and Seagoville product LaMarcus Aldridge and the possibility that Nowitzki and other Maverick players might want to start their sales pitches to Aldridge as soon as possible. The 6-11 power forward will be one of the NBA's most attractive free agents in the summer of 2015. "Ease up on that," he said. Dallas Morning News
OK, admittedly, Game No. 5 is a little early to breaking out the speculation for free agents of next summer. Having said that, Nowitzki made it clear that teaming up with Aldridge would be something compelling to him, even though they play the same position. And yes, even though Aldridge has stated his desire to return to Portland and cement himself as the greatest Blazer of all time. "I think I've showed in my career that I can play with anybody in this league," Nowitzki said, clearly warming up to the idea. "In some situations, he's playing the five [center] when they go small, so …" Dallas Morning News
Chandler Parsons: Unbelievably sad what happened at game tonight. Prayers are with that family. Life is really bigger than basketball. Twitter @ChandlerParsons
What's the worst move you've made as the owner of the Dallas Mavericks? Mark Cuban: Letting Steve Nash go. I learned an expensive lesson. It took me too many years to realize that for some GMs, their number-one job wasn't winning a championship, it's keeping their job. It's easy to look back and see my mistakes today. I wish I would have been smart enough to know better back then. I loved taking risks to win. Unfortunately some of them were not as educated as they should have been. Rolling Stone
During the Donald Sterling situation, did you ever empathize with him? Did you ever think to yourself, "I've been in the news more than once for something I've said?" Mark Cuban: Did I empathize with him? Yes. Of course I did. This is an elderly man who grew up in a generation that is night-and-day in how it understood race and culture. And yes, I empathized with him because this was a conversation that took place in his kitchen and he had a right to expect privacy in his home. But none of that excused him from the rules of the NBA. He put the business of the NBA at risk. That is a situation that, while I have been fined, I have never found myself in and don't expect to. Rolling Stone
Mark Cuban: I loved D-Steve and never had a problem and didn't anticipate one. As far his arrest, it was for public intoxication. He wasn't driving. He was wandering. Or wobbling, I guess. As long as you aren't driving or in a position to inflict harm on someone, and over the age of 21, feel free to get as fucked-up as you please after you win a championship. I know I did. We have a team psychologist who spends time with all of our guys. While he won't divulge specifics, we do discuss whether or not there are red flags regarding a player's personal, professional or social life. We've had a functioning alcoholic on the team in the past and we put together plans and programs to help him. We've had other issues when we have asked the player to leave the team. Rolling Stone
Joe Freeman: Bad news #Blazers fans: Dallas PG Raymond Felton (sprained right ankle) is doubtful tomorrow when the Mavericks visit the Moda Center. Twitter @BlazerFreeman
The injury-hit Indiana Pacers are in the process of signing free-agent guard Gal Mekel, according to league sources. Sources told ESPN.com that Mekel, who's in his second NBA season and ranks as one of Israel's two exports in the league alongside Sacramento's Omri Casspi, also drew interest from Oklahoma City since his release by the Dallas Mavericks last week. ESPN.com
Perhaps that explains why Parsons has little interest in discussing Trevor Ariza, his much more cap-friendly replacement on the Rockets who has been phenomenal in five games. Ariza is averaging 17.6 points, 5.4 rebounds, 3.2 assists and leads the NBA with 21 made 3-pointers, knocking down 60 percent of his long-range attempts. "I don't pay any attention to him," Parsons said. "Listen, many people replace many people every year in this league. He's a good, proven player in this league. He's supposed to play good for them." ESPN.com
Earl K. Sneed: Rick Carlisle says Al-Farouq Aminu (left knee injury) was a full participant in practice today. Twitter @EarlKSneed
Mavericks forward Al-Farouq Aminu has left a game against Boston with a left knee injury. Aminu, in his first year with Dallas after signing as a free agent, was injured in the second quarter Monday night. He had five points in 10 minutes when he left the game. There was no immediate update on the severity of the injury. USA Today Sports
Dwain Price: BREAKING NEWS: #Mavs forward Al-Farouq Aminu is out for the rest of tonight's game with a left knee injury. Twitter @DwainPrice
Mark Cuban had an interesting take on the competitive nature of the Western Conference before Saturday's game. "I think there's a realistic chance that 10 teams win 50 games in the West," the owner said. Dallas Morning News
The Mavericks have gotten great feedback on their Run DMC video that debuted Thursday at the home opener. "It's viral," Cuban said. "Even the original Run DMC tweeted about it. Chandler was good in it. It was fun. And we got more stuff coming, a lot more." The video features Dirk Nowitzki, Chandler Parsons and Monta Ellis rapping about the Mavericks. Dallas Morning News
Cuban said: "When we came here that year he goes, 'You're going to win the championship. I already know it, I'm positive of it.' "It was early in the season, and he goes, 'If you win, do I get a ring?' I said, 'If we win, you'll get a ring.' " On Saturday, Menzies was sporting the championship ring Cuban gave him after the Mavs indeed captured the 2011 title. It's the same authentic ring Cuban gave his players, and it has Menzies' name on it. "The only games I wear it are when the Mavericks play here,'' said Menzies, who previously worked 17 years as a security guard for pop superstar Michael Jackson. Fort Worth Star-Telegram
Chandler is so high on Aminu that he compares him favorably to former Chicago Bulls superstar Scottie Pippen. "The first day I saw him I told him he should go back and watch Scottie Pippen, watch the tapes on him because that athletic, long built of being able to really hound guys with long arms and strength, I feel like he has that," Chandler said. "And he has the motor to stay after it as well." Fort Worth Star-Telegram
Five players from the championship team join No. 1 Dirk Nowitzki in the illustrious list.

A love of lillajul
The tradition of a Finnish Christmas in America
Soon my familys Christmas tree will drip with glittering tinsel as my sisters and I obligingly parade around the living room for my familys tiny Lucia pageant. Well eagerly tear into our stockings long before most of our friends, on the first Advent, a Finnish holiday known as lillajul or little Christmas.
The dining room table, nearly luminescent under the glowing yellow lights, will be covered by so much food that the gigantic leg of ham will be relegated to a different table. The sweet smell of my parents homemade glogg, or mulled wine, will fill the kitchen. Im already eagerly awaiting Christmas Eve dinner, my favorite meal of the year and one that lasts for hours. And on Christmas morning Ill be shaken awake by my youngest sister, Celeste, who has doubtlessly been awake since 7 a.m. waiting for me to crawl out of bed.
My family is Finnish, and although Finland is better known for its Programme for International Student Assessment scores and Angry Birds, the countrys holiday season is unmatched. Every Christmas season has been one long, happy event, beginning with lillajul on the fourth Sunday before Christmas: the first of Advent. My birthday on Dec. 5 brings the level of excitement in my family up another few notches, and it is followed by Luciadagen on Dec. 13. The day celebrates Saint Lucy of Syracuse, and my sisters and I take turns dressing as Lucy, also called Lucia, while the other two of us dress as her attendants. We lead a little procession around the family room while the traditional Lucia song plays, and then we pose for endless photographs to send to extended family members. I remember my confusion as a child when I realized that none of my friends held these traditions, which seemed so inseparable from the holiday season. The sparkle of lights in the streets of Portland wouldnt be the same without the anticipation of celebration after celebration in the Finnish style Ive always known.
None of these activities compare to the joy of Christmas Eve, however. Food preparation begins several days before, with massive shopping sprees to Scandinavian stores and, most importantly, to a Russian butcher who sells whole pork shanks. Production of glogg begins more than a week before Dec. 24, and my parents spend their days in the kitchen, working together to make the foods they enjoyed when they were children in Finland and yelling at my sisters and I to help out. The food is finally completed, always just minutes before the arrival of our guests. The feast on Christmas Eve lasts hours and is shared with family friends a Jewish family weve known for years, a tradition as odd as the pickled herring my parents devour. The event concludes late in the evening after we each open a present and slowly become sleepy.
We devote the next day to casually staying around the home, opening presents and eating rice pudding. Another Christmas comes and goes, concluding with much less fanfare than it begins with. The food lasts us another week or two, and a new year marks renewed excitement for the next Finnish Christmas.

Few believe inside trading rare in Silicon Valley
Send this to a friend
Only 5 percent of those responding to an online poll thought insider trading was a rare occurrence in Silicon Valley.
The Business Pulse survey was conducted between Oct. 20 and Oct. 27 by the Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal.
It followed high-profile charges against six defendants who the government said tried to profit from insider tips about Google Inc., Sun Microsystems Inc., Advanced Micro Devices Inc. and other companies.
About 61 percent of those responding to the poll said they believe insider trading is common in Silicon Valley and another 33 percent said we'll never really know.
Reader Michael Henderson wrote, "I think this is just the tip of the iceburg. Insider trading has been going on for decades. The problem is the SEC hasn't done much in the the way of enforcement."
Another reader, Michael Craig, wrote, "Galleon Hedge Fund was around during the days of finacial institutions not disclosing that the shares they were pushing their clients to buy were in companies that they helped finance the IPO of. Not that shocking that they figured out another way to cheat the system."
Robert J. Ransom believes the government needs to step up: "The SEC needs to ensure insider trading is stopped."
A reader who identified as CJ Joe wrote, "Also some of the positive outlooks in the semiconductor industry locally seem very overblown. Give positive statements about your future outlook in sales to investors in order to boost your stock, yet continue to tell employees how bad the company is doing and start a new round of layoffs before the holidays. Watch what one."

When you're naked, it's hard to hide flaws.
Especially if you're a naked chicken wing. And the wing that during the last 50 years has stormed every bar in North America, at that.
There has certainly been a buzz in central Hamilton the last couple of months about the opening of the Anchor Bar in Jackson Square.
It's the first franchise the iconic restaurant has allowed outside of Buffalo, N.Y. I must admit I was excited before visiting the place last weekend. Heck, this is the Anchor Bar! They invented fried chicken wings! With blue cheese and hot sauce and celery sticks!
Now, I've never been to the original Anchor, so I can't speak to how the Hamilton food compares to that in Buffalo (although newsroom colleagues who have eaten at both tell me the wings are identical). All I can do is weigh how good the Hamilton Anchor wings are compared to other offerings and to my taste.
They are extremely good by any standard, the best I've had in years.
Part of the appeal is the restaurant's approach to wings. It's the style I prefer, the one I use on the rare occasion when I make them at home. There's no dusting, no breading, no seasoning, no tossing with sticky sauce in the kitchen. They simply take chicken wings, trim them, blanch them in oil, then fry them a second time to make them golden and crisp.
There also is a sense of fun to the place. You can watch all kinds of sports on the dozen or so big-screen TVs. That's a distraction in many restaurants, but essential in a place like the Anchor. The service is fast, friendly and accommodating. Pricewise, the Anchor food leans toward the higher end for the type of restaurant, but I certainly felt I got my money's worth.
We had started the meal with a shared appetizer of Caesar salad ($6.99). It was impressive, a large plate piled with crisp and fresh Romaine lettuce pieces, tossed with a creamy, mildly garlicky house-made dressing — not too much, not too little, but enough to taste.
That was topped with house-made croutons (crunchy, bite-size, very good indeed) and lots of crumbled real honest-to-god bacon that had a slight maple-smoky edge. The meal was off to a good start.
There was, however, a little ripple in the pacing. We hadn't finished the salad when the Giardina pizza ($11.99) arrived. The famous wings ($11.99 for a single order) arrived fully five minutes after that. They should keep an eye on that timing.
The pizza is made by hand and wood-fired. The latter inevitably adds a smoky, rustic aspect to the dish. The Giardina is a vegetarian choice, with fresh tomato sauce, sautéed mushrooms, spinach, roasted garlic and buffalo mozzarella. The toppings were very good quality and the pizza overall was delicious, but the liquid released by the mozzarella as it bakes did make the centre couple of inches of the crust a little soggy.
At last, the much-anticipated Anchor chicken wings. You can get orders in different sizes — maxing with a platter of 50 for $64.99 — but they all arrive the same, unadorned and arranged on a plate with little tubs of blue cheese and hot sauce dips on the side. The single order is eight pieces, four drumettes and four wingettes, which for me is an ideal portion. They were large but not those super jumbos you find in some restaurants. That's important because the best wings need a certain balance of meat to crisp skin.
The wings were hot, meaty, tender inside and very crisp. The real secret, though, is those dips, made from special recipes. The blue cheese is chunky, mild and has a little bite of white pepper to it. Excellent. The hot sauce (medium in this case) was terrific, smooth and just thick enough to cling to the wings, with an enticing vinegar tang that helps counter the richness of the chicken skin.
Amazingly, there still was just enough room for dessert. They don't make those themselves but have The Dream Factory, a specialty baking company, supply the goodies. Apart from a selection of cheesecakes, the Anchor has cleverly included cupcakes and even mini-cupcakes for those who want just a little bite of sweet.
We went with a Blackout cupcake ($2.69), a moist and dark chocolate cake topped with similarly dark chocolate icing. Just the right size to finish the meal.
So there you have it. The Anchor Bar has hove to in Hamilton. They do the thing that made the name famous extremely well. The restaurant is already drawing lineups of customers eager for a seat (they don't take reservations). And that can only be good news for the downtown core.

Gutters do their job best when clean. Check yours for foliage build-up, particularly if trees hover over the roof. The rainy season is a prime time to ensure all drainage areas remain unblocked by leaves and/or debris. Trapped moisture can leave a house susceptible to mold and mildew and cause major damage to your roof and walls. While you're at it, make sure the downspout is clean and pointing at least two feet away from foundation walls.

Phillies win 13th straight at Petco Park, 4-1
Juan Pierre hit a go-ahead, two-run single in the seventh inning to back Cole Hamels, and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the San Diego Padres 4-1 on Friday night for their 13th straight victory at Petco Park.
AP Sports Writer
Juan Pierre hit a go-ahead, two-run single in the seventh inning to back Cole Hamels, and the Philadelphia Phillies beat the San Diego Padres 4-1 on Friday night for their 13th straight victory at Petco Park.
Hamels (2-1) improved to 7-2 with a 2.22 ERA in 12 career starts against his hometown Padres. In his last four starts against San Diego, he's 4-0 with a 0.60 ERA.
Shane Victorino hit a solo home run in the eighth, his second. Victorino was hit by a pitch on the left elbow earlier in the at-bat, but umpire Dan Bellino ruled that he leaned into the pitch.
After allowing a run in the fifth, Hamels was assured of the victory thanks to a three-run rally in the seventh. Hamels allowed one run and six hits in six innings, struck out four and walked one.
Edinson Volquez held Philadelphia to two hits through six scoreless innings before allowing three straight singles to open the seventh and load the bases. Andrew Cashner relieved Volquez (0-2) and allowed Brian Schneider's RBI single to right bring in Victorino with the tying run. With one out, Pierre singled to right to score Ty Wigginton and Freddy Galvis.
Jonathan Paplebon pitched the ninth for his fifth save in five chances.
Victorino's homer was off Australian left-hander Josh Spence.
The Padres haven't beaten the Phillies in San Diego since Aug. 16, 2008. Overall, the Phillies are 24-4 at Petco Park since it opened in 2004.
Cameron Maybin tripled to the gap in right-center leading off the fifth. The Padres had stranded seven runners to that point, but after Chase Headley struck out, Maybin scored on Jesus Guzman's grounder to shortstop.
Hamels was called for two balks for the first time in his career, but the Padres weren't able to capitalize.
In the second, after rookie Andy Parrino was forced at third on Volquez's bunt, Hamels' balk moved Orlando Hudson to third and Volquez to second with two outs. Hamels then hit Chris Denorfia with a pitch before striking out Maybin.
In the fourth, Yonder Alonso singled and Hamels was called for another balk, by second base umpire Bob Davidson. Hamels, who appeared to have stepped off the rubber, angrily yelled at Davidson. Alonso took third on Orlando Hudson's single but was thrown out at the plate when Hamels flipped Volquez's bunt with his glove to catcher Brian Schneider.
Volquez allowed three runs and five hits in six innings, struck out five and walked three.
NOTES: Hamels' two balks were the most by a Phillies pitcher since Paul Quantrill also had two balks on July 15, 1995, at Montreal. ... Hamels had three career balks coming into the game, all from last season. ... Rookie Andy Parrino started in place of SS Jason Bartlett. ... The four-game series continues Saturday night when Roy Halladay (3-0, 1.17) is scheduled to start for Philadelphia against Padres LHP Cory Luebke (1-1, 3.71).

Android-operated mobile phone recharges via its own photovoltaic cells
February 21, 2011 // Julien Happich
At Mobile World Congress, Umeox launched the Apollo, a solar-powered Android phone. The Chinese manufacturer showcased two different models: one for the US (MTK6573) with support for 850/1900Mhz bands and one (the MTK6516) that will work in Europe and much of Asia.
The mobile phone features a 3.2″ 320×480 display, 1GB of internal storage, it has a microSD card slot and comes with FM radio, Bluetooth 2.1 with A2DP, a 3 megapixel rear camera and a 3.5mm audio jack. The back of the unit is fully wrapped by sleek photovoltaic cells. The company estimates that charging up for daily usage should only require about 2.5 hours of sunlight, bringing it back to 100% after it has been fully emptied would require 17 hours.
