Go Koong is one of the best Korean restaurants in town. The menu covers extensive ground, from raw meats and seafood that are cooked sizzling on the tabletop grill, to kimchi stews and thick pancakes studded with shrimp, squid, and scallions. The complimentary banchans (Korean appetizers) are a feast in themselves, with over ten different items available every day. Order the smoked duck-breast salad to start before moving on to more substantial fare such as the
tender beef ribs steamed in whole pumpkin. If you still have room at the end of the meal, remember to try the patbingsoo—a giant bowl of crunchy shaved ice laced with sweetened red beans and fresh fruit.

Dec 25, 2013I honestly don't understand why there's so much negativity surrounding this game. I thought it was really fun, not perfect mind you, but entertaining to say the least. I actually really like the retro style of it (I was also a fan of the 3ds adventure time game" hey ice king why'd you steal our garbage") and it has some great voice acting provided by the cast of the show. I keep seeing remarks along the lines of "for anybody who isn't a fan of adventure time, this game wont have much to offer." which is... stupid to say the least. I mean, yeah, duh. next you're gonna tell me people who don't like Spider-man probably isn't going to like a Spider-man game. though real talk, there isn't nearly enough enemies and the game's much better with multiplayer. if you can look past that, it's a fun game. grab your friends and play it if you get the chance… Expand
Jan 23, 2014It's not broken, it's just dull. A disservice to the excellent franchise. [Issue#143, p.119]
Jan 2, 2014A show as delightfully zany as Adventure Time deserves much better that this bland and uninspired pastiche of top-down dungeon crawler mechanics and the brief flashes of irreverent humour and charm that appear throughout can't save this rushed and dull waste of a license.

Added Dec 8, 2008
Tokyo, Japan
This is a white shirt and navy pants that my son needed for the school concert. I added a matching jacket to the pants, and lined it with blue flannel from an Ikea blanket.
I made the pattern for the pants myself by tracing one of his pants, and then adding pocket details and turned-up hem. The shirt and jacket patterns are from a Japanese pattern book. I changed the pocket a little bit and added a pair of buttons.
I think the suit and shirt turned out really nice, my son (and me) really loves it.

Mother of All InfoGraphics: The INEVITABLE Derivatives Collapse coming to a Universe Near You!Submitted by AnCapMercenary on Fri, 04/20/2012 - 18:15
The Mother Of All Infographics: Visualizing America's Derivatives Universe
Zero Hedge
April 20, 2012
A month ago we presented the latest derivatives update from the OCC, according to which the Top 5 US banks held 95.7%, or $221 trillion of the entire US derivative universe (which in turn is just a modest portion of the entire $707 trillion in global derivatives as of June 30, 2011). And while the numbers of all this credit money, because that's what it is, and the variation margin associated with all these trillions in bets is all too real, appeared impressive on paper, they did not do this story enough service. So to present, visually this time, the US derivatives problem, we go to our friends from DEMONocracy, who put the $229 trillion derivative 'issue' in its proper context. For those curious what a paper equivalent of bailing out the US derivatives market would look like, now you know.
ORIGINAL Article:
Derivatives: The Unregulated Global Casino for Banks
SHORT STORY: Pick something of value, make bets on the future value of "something", add contract & you have a derivative. Banks make massive profits on derivatives, and when the bubble bursts chances are the tax payer will end up with the bill.
This visualizes the total coverage for derivatives (notional). Similar to insurance company's total coverage for all cars.
LONG STORY: A derivative is a legal bet (contract) that derives its value from another asset, such as the future or current value of oil, government bonds or anything else. Ex- A derivative buys you the option (but not obligation) to buy oil in 6 months for today's price/any agreed price, hoping that oil will cost more in future. (I'll bet you it'll cost more in 6 months). Derivative can also be used as insurance, betting that a loan will or won't default before a given date. So its a big betting system, like a Casino, but instead of betting on cards and roulette, you bet on future values and performance of practically anything that holds value. The system is not regulated what-so-ever, and you can buy a derivative on an existing derivative.
Most large banks try to prevent smaller investors from gaining access to the derivative market on the basis of there being too much risk. Deriv. market has blown a galactic bubble, just like the real estate bubble or stock market bubble (that's going on right now). Since there is literally no economist in the world that knows exactly how the derivative money flows or how the system works, while derivatives are traded in microseconds by computers, we really don't know what will trigger the crash, or when it will happen, but considering the global financial crisis this system is in for tough times, that will be catastrophic for the world financial system since the 9 largest banks shown below hold a total of $228.72 trillion in Derivatives - Approximately 3 times the entire world economy. No government in world has money for this bailout. Lets take a look at what banks have the biggest Derivative Exposures and what scandals they've been lately involved in.

Posted January 26, 2013 on AP on Fox
Real Madrid has signed goalkeeper Diego Lopez from Sevilla to help fill in for the injured Iker Casillas. Madrid said on its club website on Saturday that Lopez's contract will keep him at the Spanish champions until the end of the 2016-17 season. The 31-year-old Lopez came up through Madrid's youth system, playing sparingly for its first team before playing for Villarreal from 2007-2012. He had joined Sevilla last offseason. Madrid also said that Casillas was released from hospital Saturday morning after undergoing surgery on his left hand which he broke during a match on Wednesday. He is expected to be sidelined for two to three months.

The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Vatican raises possibility of holding conclave to elect next pope earlier than March 15
VATICAN CITY - The Vatican raised the possibility Saturday that the conclave to elect the next pope might start sooner than March 15, the earliest date possible under current rules that require a 15 to 20 day waiting period after the papacy becomes vacant.
Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi said that Vatican rules on papal succession are open to interpretation and that "this is a question that people are discussing."
Any change to the law itself would have to be approved by the pope before he resigns.
But if Vatican officials determine that the matter is just a question of interpreting the existing law, "it is possible that church authorities can prepare a proposal to be taken up by the cardinals on the first day after the papal vacancy" to move up the start of the conclave, Lombardi said.
The 15 to 20 day waiting period is in place to allow time for all cardinals who don't live in Rome to arrive, under the usual circumstance of a pope dying. But in this case the cardinals already know that this pontificate will end Feb. 28, with the resignation of Pope Benedict XVI, and therefore can get to Rome in plenty of time to take part in the conclave, Lombardi said.
The date of the conclave's start is important because Holy Week begins March 24, with Palm Sunday Mass followed by Easter Sunday on March 31. In order to have a new pope in place in time for the most solemn liturgical period on the church calendar, he would need to be installed by Sunday, March 17, because of the strong tradition to hold installation Mass on a Sunday. Given the tight time frame, speculation has mounted that some arrangement would be made to start the conclave earlier than a strict reading of the law would allow.
Questions about the start of the conclave have swirled since Benedict stunned the world on Feb. 11, by announcing that he would retire, the first pontiff in 600 years to abdicate rather than stay in office until death. His decision has created a host of questions about how the Vatican will proceed, given that its plans for the so-called "sede vacante" — or vacant seat — period between papacies are based on the process starting with a papal death.
"In this moment we are not prepared," said Cardinal Franc Rode, the former head of the Vatican's office for religious orders who will vote in the conclave. "We have not been able to make predictions, strategies, plans, candidates. It is too early, but we will get there. In two or three weeks things will be put in place."
Meanwhile, a German journalist who has published several long interviews with Benedict over the years suggested that the pope strongly foreshadowed his retirement during an August conversation.
Peter Seewald said in an article for the German weekly Focus published Saturday that the pontiff had told him that his strength was diminishing and "not much more" could be expected from him as pope.
"I am an old man and my strength is running out," Seewald quoted the pope as saying. "And I think what I have done is enough."
Asked by Seewald whether he was considering resignation, Benedict responded: "That depends to what extent my physical strength will compel me to." The summer interview, as well as another in December, were for a new Benedict biography.
Seewald's 2010 book-length interview with Benedict, "Light of the World," laid the groundwork for a possible resignation.
In it, he quoted Benedict as saying: "If a pope clearly realizes that he is no longer physically, psychologically and spiritually capable of handling the duties of his office, then he has a right, and under some circumstances, also an obligation to resign."
He stressed then, however, that resignation was not an option to escape a particular burden, such as the scandal over sexual abuse by clerics which had erupted earlier in 2010.
In Saturday's article, Seewald recalled asking the pope in August how badly the 2012 scandal over leaks of papal documents, in which the pope's ex-butler was convicted of aggravated theft, had affected him.
Benedict said the affair had not thrown him off his stride or made him tired of office. "It is simply incomprehensible to me," he said.
The journalist said that when he last saw Benedict about 10 weeks ago, his hearing had deteriorated and he appeared to have lost vision in his left eye, adding that the pope had lost weight and appeared tired.
Benedict, however, appeared in good form on Saturday for some of his final audiences. He met with the Guatemalan president, a group of visiting Italian bishops, and had his farewell audience with Italian Premier Mario Monti.
"He was in good condition," Guatemalan President Otto Perez Molina told reporters afterward. "He didn't seem tired, rather smiling, lively — and happy and very clear in his decision to resign."
Cardinal Angelo Scola, the archbishop of Milan and a leading contender to succeed Benedict, said several of the visiting bishops noted at the end of their audience that they were the last group of bishops to be received by the pope. "'This responsibility means you have to become a light for all,'" he quoted Benedict as saying.
Lombardi also gave more details about Benedict's final public audiences and plans for retirement, saying already 35,000 people had requested tickets for his final general audience to be held in St. Peter's Square on Feb. 27.
He said Benedict would spend about two months in the papal summer retreat at Castel Gandolfo south of Rome immediately after his abdication, to allow enough time for renovations to be completed on his retirement home — a converted monastery inside the Vatican walls.
That means Benedict would be expected to return to the Vatican, no longer as pope, around the end of April or beginning of May, Lombardi said.
He was asked if and when the pope would meet with his successor and whether he would participate in his installation Mass. Like many open questions about the end of Benedict's papacy, Lombardi said, both issues simply haven't been resolved.

A 1959 Jaguar XK150 Drophead Coupé connected with the infamous 1963 Profumo Affair will be put up for auction.
The car belonged to osteopathic physician and socialite Dr Stephen Ward.
Dr Ward introduced John Profumo, the Conservative MP and Secretary of State for War, to the nightclub dancer and model Christine Keeler.
Profumo then embarked on an affair with Keeler, who at the time was also allegedly in a relationship with the Soviet naval attaché Yevgeny Ivanov.
The Minister resigned from Parliament after news of the scandal emerged, while Ward was prosecuted for living off the earnings of prostitution.
Dr Ward committed suicide in his London flat just before he was sentenced in August 1963.
"Few Jaguars can boast such a fascinating ownership record and one that seemingly defined the era when it was first driven," said Nick Whale, managing director, Silverstone Auctions.
"Few cars offered at auction have such an amazing connection to such important events in British political history."
The car, which has the registration plate WLY 150, is finished in Old English White and comes with a dark red leather interior.
It will go under the hammer as part of Silverstone Auctions' sale at Race Retro on 22 and 23 February.

2. Marker light according to claim 1, wherein said light dividing prism (7) is adapted to emit two obliquely upwardly directed, partially overlapping light bundles.
3. Marker light according to claim 1, wherein said plate body (7) is horizontally disposed with an upper planar surface and lower, symmetrically situated incident surfaces (7a, 7b, 7c, 7d) obliquely oriented in opposite directions.
4. Marker light according to claim 3, wherein said incident surfaces include two outer incident surfaces (7a, 7d) obliquely oriented in opposite directions and at least two inner incident surfaces (7b, 7c) located therebetween and being likewise obliquely oriented in opposite directions.

8. Marker light according to claim 1, wherein said upper surface of said cover plate (8) comprises two portions (8a, 8b) slightly inclined in opposite directions and each emitting a corresponding one of said two light beams (L12, L34).
9. Marker light according to any one of claims 1 to 8, wherein said light source (4) is provided with a reflector producing an emitted, vertical light bundle which diverges at most 10�.
10. Marker light according to any one of claims 1 to 8, wherein said light source (4) is obliquely adjustable sideways and is provided with a reflector producing a light bundle which diverges at most 50�.
The invention relates to an airfield marker light, e.g for runways or taxi strips. The marker light is of the flushmounted type and provides light beams directed in opposite directions at a small angle with the ground.
Such a marker light is known from GB-A-966-357, wherein the light from a lower, non-directive light source strikes, on the one hand, two part-cylindrical collecting lenses each positioned adjacent to a saw-tooth surface, these lenses serving to focus the light into a respective light bundle with parallel rays, and on the other hand, somewhat curved reflector surfaces, located at the bottom adjacent to the side walls of the casing, these reflector surfaces serving to reflect the light toward the saw-tooth surfaces of the cover plate. With this arrangement, it is difficult to prevent a large portion of the light from striking the saw-tooth surfaces at an oblique angle with an accompanying total reflection, absorption and heat development in the cover plate. This is also due to the fact that each collecting lense co-operates with no more than two saw-tooth surfaces and that the light source has a large radial extension in relation to its distance from the collecting lenses and the reflector surfaces. Consequently, this marker light provides a relatively low light efficiency and, if the power of the light source is increased, the heat development will be too high.
A similar marker light is known from DK-C-113912, wherein a lower, point-like source emits non-directive light, which hits an upper, transparent cover plate having an upper planar surface and an incident surface, which has the shape of a toroid and which is discontinued by two diametrically opposed collecting lenses or planar cylinder lenses, the latter collecting the light into two light beams emitted from the upper surface of the cover plate in opposite directions. Even in this structure, the heat development will be strong, and it is therefore hardly useful in practical applications, since the required light intensity cannot be achieved.
Other examples of previously known marker lights of the flush-mounted type, although emitting light in only one main direction, are given in EP-B1-22106 and US-A-3 096 024, these two lights including a transparent cover plate having a planar upper surface and a saw-tooth lower surface. The light source is obliquely positioned, in this case so that its light bundle strikes one of the surfaces of each saw-tooth at a substantially right angle. In principle, these known lights can be supplemented by a second light source, inclined in an opposite direction, so that two oppositely directed light beams are obtained. However, such an arrangement is disadvantageous because of the complications involved in arranging two separate light sources, and because of the increased heat development caused by another light source.
The object of the invention is to achieve a marker light having only one light source and ensuring a division of the light bundle into two oppositely directed, sufficiently strong light beams with moderate heat development, in a structure which is fairly simple and relatively inexpensive to manufacture.
This object is achieved for a marker light according to the invention, which is characterized in that
(a) the light source is adapted to emit a collected upwardly directed light bundle, and
(b) the optical means include a light dividing prism in the form of a transparent plate body located between the light source and the cover plate and having oppositely inclined, refractive planar surfaces, so that the upwardly directed light bundle from the light source, during its passage through the light dividing prism, is divided into two obliquely upwardly directed light bundles propagating in opposite directions at right angles to the respective saw-tooth surfaces.
By this structure, the light energy generated by the light source is utilized to a very great extent as useful, emerging light, whereas only a minor part thereof is converted into heat. Moreover, the upper cover plate, which is exposed to mechanical forces, is thermally protected by the underlying light dividing prism. However, the most important feature is that it is possible to obtain substantially higher light intensity, with moderate heat development, than with the previously known solutions.
The light efficiency can be be especially high by adapting the light dividing prism to emit two mutually partially overlapping light bundles. If desired, practically the whole cover plate can then be utilized for light emission. A further increase of the light intensity near the ground level can be achieved in that the upper surface of the cover plate includes two portions slightly inclined in opposite directions and each emitting a light beam.
The marker light may be designed for narrow emitted light beams, diametrically opposed, which is preferable at straight portions of a runway, or for wider light beams, obliquely directed sideways, which is preferable at curved portions of a taxi strip or the like.
The invention will be explained more fully below with reference to the appended drawings, which illustrate a preferred embodiment by way of example, and in which
FIG. 1 shows a marker light according to the invention in perspective view, half of the device being cut away through a central, vertical section for increased clarity;
FIG. 2 shows the marker light in top plan view;
FIG. 3 shows the optical components schematically with the principal light rays; and
FIGS. 4a and 4b show central sectional views of the lower part of the marker light with a lamp in two mounting positions.
The marker light shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 comprises an essentially cylindrical casing 1 of metal, e.g., an aluminum alloy, having a bottom plate 1a and an upper, substantially rectangular seat 1b a reflector lamp 4, mounted on the bottom plate 1a by means of a bracket 2, with a mounting plate 3, a color filter 5, a transparent heat insulating plate 6, a refractive plate 7, and an upper transparent cover plate 8 tightly mounted in the seat 1b. As shown in FIG. 1, the casing 1 is disposed in a well housing 9 having a lid 10, so that the upper surface of the cover plate 8 lies substantially flush with the ground plane. The upper, substantially rectangular cover plate 8 is preferably made of a transparent epoxy plastic material, i.e., an abrasive resistant material, which, if necessary, can be provided with a new surface layer for filling in possible scratches or repairing other damage on the upper surface. However, to avoid such damage, hard, ceramic particles are partially embedded into the surface layer partly along two longitudinal edge portions 11, 12, partly along a central, transverse strip portion 13. Hereby, the upper surface of the cover plate is divided into two rectangular portions 8a, 8b each intended to emit a light beam, which propagates close to the plane of the ground (cf. FIG. 3). In order to achieve the best possible light intensity near the plane of the ground, each surface portion 8a, 8b is somewhat inclined, so that it inclines downwards from the central transversal portion 13 about 3� relative to the horizontal plane.
The mounting bracket 2 for the reflector lamp 4 consists of a bent metal strip, e.g., of an aluminum alloy, which is oriented substantially parallel to the transversal central portion 13 of the cover plate 8. One end portion 2a of the bracket is fixed to the bottom plate 1a, which likewise can be made of an aluminum alloy, in good heat conductive contact with latter. The other, longer end portion 2b is planar and horizontal, and the rectangular mounting plate 3 is secured to this portions by a screw fastener 14. The reflector lamp 4 with its socket 4a can be mounted on the plate 3 either in a central, straight upwardly directed position according to FIG. 4a or in a somewhat oblique (in a plane through the central transversal portion 13 of the cover plate 8) position in a corresponding recess 3a in the plate, as appears from FIG. 4b. The electrical feeder wires 15a, 15b of the lamp 4 are drawn through a central hole 16 in the bottom plate 1a, as appears from FIG. 1. The color filter 5, which is disposed somewhat above the reflector lamp 4, is made of a toughened glass plate with coloring pigment, the glass plate 5 being horizontal and all around sealingly fitted circumferentially to the cylinder casing 1. The circumferential portion thereof is secured between two cylindrical lower and upper tube portions 17, 18, likewise of an aluminum alloy, said tube portions being tightly fitted internally in the tube casing 1.
The insulating glass plate 6 is likewise horizontal and rests on the upper end of the upper tube portion 18, the circumferential edge thereof being fitted sealingly to the surrounding tube casing 1.
The refractive plate 7 is likewise horizontally disposed and is sealingly fitted to the surrounding tube casing 1 at a small distance below the upper cover plate 8.
A portion of the heat generated by the reflector lamp 4 is dissipated by heat conduction via the socket 4a, the plate 3, the bracket 2 and the bottom plate 1a, and a portion of the heat generated during the passage of the light through the plates 5, 6 and 7 is dissipated by way of the heat conductive contact with the tube casing 1. The insulating glass plate 6 also serves to prevent upward movement of heat by convection. Thus, the upper cover plate 8 can be maintained at an advantageously low temperature, whereby its resistance is increased and the life of the marker light is substantially increased in relation to prior art solutions.
The optical features will now be described with reference to FIG. 3.
The vertically directed reflector lamp 4 emits a well defined, collected light bundle, which in ground marker lights intended for straight portions of a runway or a taxi strip diverges about 10� at most, as appears from the longitudinal section in FIG. 3. Since the plates 5 and 6 are parallel, the light bundle passes through these plates without any geometrical change. The refractive plate 7, however, is provided with inclined surfaces 7a, 7b, 7c and 7d, and thus serves as a light refracting prism, which divides the light bundle into two bundle portions L1, L2 and L3, L4, respectively, directed obliquely upwardly in opposite directions (between the light refracting plate 7 and the cover plate 8). The underside of the cover plate 8 is saw-tooth shaped in the transversal direction (parallel to the portion 13 at the upper side), wherein each saw-tooth has an oblique saw-tooth surface 8c, which is normal to the oblique light bundle portion L1, L2, and an adjoining inclined saw-tooth surface 8d, which is normal to the other oblique light bundle portion L3, L4. The two oblique light bundle portions will therefore strike the underside of the cover plate without refraction, whereupon each light bundle portion is heavily refracted in the respective upper surface portions 8a and 8b, so that the emitted light beams L12 and L34 are directed longitudinally in opposite directions at a very small angle to ground plane M (dash-dotted in FIG. 3). It should be noted that no light strikes the upper transversal portion 13 of the cover plate, in which hard particles are embedded (cf. FIg. 2).
To achieve the desired light efficiency, it is preferble that the light refractive plate 7 be so designed and positioned adjacent to the cover plate 8 that the obliquely upwardly directed light bundle portions, namely, the bundle portions L2 and L3, partially overlap each other. For this purpose, the light refractive plate 7 is situated at a small distance between its upper, planar surface and the lower, saw-tooth surface of the cover plate 8. Furthermore, the refractive plate 7 includes two outer incident surfaces 7a, 7d obliquely oriented in opposite directions, and two inner incident surfaces 7b, 7c located therebetween and likewise oriented obliquely in opposite directions. The four incident surfaces 7a, 7b, 7c and jointly 7d adjoin each other and form the shape of the letter M with oblique legs. The surfaces 7a and 7c are mutually parallel and refract the bundle portions L1 and L2, respectively, which together form the emitted light beam L12 upon being further refracted in the surface portion 8b of the cover plate. The surfaces 7b and 7d are likewise mutually parallel and refract the bundle portions L3 and L4, so that the latter bundle portions, upon refraction in the upper surface portion 8a of the cover plate, form the oppositely directed light beam L34. If desired, additional oblique surfaces corresponding to the surfaces 7b and 7c can be formed between the outer oblique surfaces 7a and 7d, e.g. in a saw-tooth pattern corresponding to the underside of the cover plate 8. For optimum light efficiency, the intermediate oblique surfaces (7b, 7c) should have a vertical extension which is less than that of the outer oblique surfaces 7a and 7d.
In principle, the light refractive plate 7 could be replaced by separate prisms with corresponding oblique surfaces, but a unitary plate is preferable for easy mounting and efficient heat transfer to the surrounding casing.
The light rays according to FIG. 3 correspond to the location of the reflector lamp 4 according to FIG. 4a. If the reflector lamp 4 is obliquely positioned as shown in FIG. 4b, the light rays will be substantially the same as those in FIG. 3, since the reflector lamp 4 is inclined only in a transversal plane (normal to the drawing plane in FIG. 3).
Thus, the oblique position according to FIG. 4b will only result in that the light beams L12 and L34 are turned somewhat sideways; this position can be used, e.g., in curved sections of a taxi strip. If desired, the reflector lamp 4 can be provided with reflector which produces a somewhat wider light bundle, e.g., diverging up to 50�, so that the spread sideways is correspondingly increased. The spread in the central longitudinal plane according to FIG. 3, however, will not be increased since the light rays, which diverge more than about 5� from the vertical will be more inclined between the light refracting plate 7 and the cover plate 8, so that they are refracted in the outer incident surfaces 7a and 7d and are totally reflected in the upper surface portions 8a, 8b of the cover plate 8. If it is desired to reduce the heat which is hereby generated by the absorption of light in the cover plate 8, one can use a reflector which spreads the light bundle up to 50� sideways but only about 10� in the longitudinal direction.

Not everyone happy with name of Reading's new soccer team
Updated On: Jul 26 2013 07:49:21 AM CDT
The Major Indoor Soccer League welcomed the city of Reading as a new member.
The Pennsylvania Roar will start their first season at the Sovereign Center this November.
Sports fans in the area look forward to having a new team to cheer for in the area.
Locals like Terry Newman say that this would be more exciting if the team name was 'Reading Roar' instead.
"I think having that Reading feel to it would just pull a lot more people in and give it a hometown feel -- more than just Pennsylvania," said Newman.
Local sports enthusiasts like Robyn Lance agrees but she thinks that people will still come out to see the new team.
"When it's local, you can just tell because everyone gets into it -- screaming, yelling, and carrying on and it makes the game more exciting," said Lance.
Additional details about The Pennsylvania Roar will be released at a press conference on July 30th.

Adam Lambert: In Purple, Pot-Filled Hazeby Hilton Hater at . Comments
Adam Lambert often lights up whatever city in which he performs.
This is typically due to impressive visual effects that have followed the artist around the globe on his Glam Nation Tour. However, in Amsterdam last night, Lambert took the concept to another level, appearing to smoke marijuana on stage.
The pot comes out around the three-minute mark of another Purple Haze rendition, as Jimi Hendrix would certainly wouldn't approve of this drug use. So would the city itself, which has no laws against marijuana.
Watch, see for yourself and decide if you're cool with the sight of Adam puffing away in front of fans:
** Remember: you watch watch Adam's entire True Hollywood Story on THG RIGHT NOW!
Give me a break. First off the people who do most of the bitching about marijuana have never even tried it. It was a Friday nite staple in 73. I can also say I am not and did not get addicted to any other drug. Pain killers are addictive and cause more under the influence than marijuana does or ever did. Why do we put these people on such high regard that we say they are role models? Parents are totally responsible for making sure their kids are OK. Are you also banning Miley Cyrus for being a bad role model now when she was totally ok as Hannah Montana? People just enjoy the music. You don't have to watch the show.
"Adam is not awesome, he is part of the problem of tomorrow." Because America should strive for perfection.
Hm, he's definitely NOT a good role model, but he IS an amazing singer. It just strikes me as odd that he would do something that could, in the long run, harm his incredible voice. I don't really approve of it, but I'm gonna try my best not to hate him for it. It happened only one time(on stage, I mean)!!
First, why do everyone assume that people who complain about Adam smoking on stage do it because they're shocked ? I'm not shocked, I'm just a little upset about it. Now I'm not judging Adam and he's free to do whatever he wants and he's still an amazing singer, performer and person, but I can't help not liking the fact he smokes marijuana. And yet I'm young, I'm not american and I'm VERY open minded. So don't jump on conclusions. Second, since when did "legal" become a synonym for "good" ?
Bravo Raye, I understand what your getting at. Don't feel bad, my kids think I'm a pain in the ass too! I love Adam, I have no problem with MJ. But I don't think Adam is a good role model for younger kids. Parents need to be attentive and good teachers.
Your objectivity is gone when it comes to Adam. My panties are not in a wad, I'm laughing now, this conversation is over your head, pot is not a big deal and was never my point, sex has nothing to do with this conversation and Adam Lambert is not a God. I disagree with what you think, and that to you is a problem. You are upset because I have an opinion different than yours, so I am a pain in the ass. I thought these discussions were supposed to support opinions? Where is my acceptance? Acceptance does not mean you are about Love. Sometimes it even happens because you learn not to care or don't give a crap. Since you know nothing about me, I will leave you to your imagination of 6 packs and violence, to support what you think is okay. I'm sure you want me to go away, so I will.
It's legal in Amsterdam. Kid Cudi smoked a joint and passed some out to fans at his Amsterdam concert.
I don't believe it was pot just by the way he was smoking it. There was more blowing smoke then there was inhaling it.
Raye: You are a pain in the ass. Making a huge deal out of something that simply isn't. I am sure your old man can sit there with a six-pack of beer, right? Maybe you don't mind that. Remember, Adam is in another country which has a different outlook on marijuana use, which even though I personally don't use it, I know it isn't nearly as dangerous as that six-pack of beer!
Adam was in Amsterdam. It's really ok there. NOT in the U.S. Have you ever seen him do that on stage here? NO! So get your panties outta the bunch and get a life, learn to laugh!

Guestbook comments from the owner
Before the whole glow faded, I wanted to write and tell you how very much we enjoyed our time at Whales Tale. I wished we had another day or two there. What an amazing view! And such a lovely, comfortable house. The weather was absolutely perfect, raining one night and clear and bright during the days. We woke yesterday morning to a double rainbow over the dunes. Thank you so much for allowing us bring our dog along and for sharing your cabin. You are a lucky man to own that place. I think I'd never leave if I did!
All best wishes, Joanne

The historic Big Bear landmark Knickerbocker Mansion Country Inn was originally built by the 1st damkeeper of the Big Bear Lake Dam in 1920. This magnificently restored unique log private home and carriage house is now a well known B & B with rustic elegance, a quite atmosphere and personal attention from the innkeepers. Two historic buildings with guest rooms sitting on 2.5 private heavily treed acres backing to the national forest, yet walking distance to the Village of Big Bear Lake. Complete conference facility and full restaurant(open on weekends). The moment you arrive you will realize the Knickerbocker is a very special place.

I stayed here for couple of days and the experience was excellent. I checked-in late evening and the staff supported very well in late evening for food and accommodation; above expectation. And the morning breakfast food was superb; very delicious and very well served. The staffs were very friendly, my 6 yrs old daughter still remembers them. I recommend this as best place in Big Bear for Bed and Break accomodation
5 on November 10, 2014
The room was clean and peaceful and Chief Robert provided not only a delicious breakfast but an education on Big Bear. I highly recommend the Knickerbocker Mansion.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Mansion. The owners were away so we were catered to by Alyssa. She was a wonderful hostess. The rooms and property are beautiful. The full breakfast was delicious. The location is perfect. We walked to downtown shops and restaurants and hiked up to breathtaking views. We would love to visit again and share their home!

Very clean and quiet. Lovely place to stay!
3.2 on October 20, 2014
I was surprised at size of the room we rented. Very small, slightly larger than my walk in closet! The managers moved us to a larger room, But the bed was very uncomfortable. I feel bad giving a bad review because the managers were so friendly and nice, however the room was a disappointment.
4.2 on October 15, 2014
The current Owners have only been the proprietors for a couple of months and it seems they have made a lot of positive changes according to older pictures and previous reviews on other sites. We received a warm welcome when we checked in an hour early, nothing was mentioned about being there too soon, they had just put out Sweet Tea and Cookies. Our room was clean with basic amenities. We stayed in the Willow room of the Carriage House which was upstairs. The water is very noticeable when running but not intolerable. I could not hear our neighbors but I can't speak for the downstairs rooms.There was a new gas heater in the room and vents for what may have been a/c but with the windows open, not necessary. I enjoyed a few hours on the porch of the mansion reading and watching wildlife while the Husband was Mountain biking. There is a trail right behind the property that he took back so I did not have to worry about picking him up. The Inn is close to town but a little bit uphill so leisurely walks are nice but not after a shopping spree or a really large meal. It was really relaxing there and this uptight female really needed the wind down. It was exactly what I was looking for. Oh..the food? Excellent....we had fruit for a 1st course (not just average melon bananas and stuff) and the 2nd course on day 1 was "shored eggs" with peppers (a new one for me) that impressed these taste buds and day 2 was a French Toast Casserole with sausage. I really wish we had dinner here but had already made plans for other Restaurants we love in town, but we do plan to return sooner than later. They also have a Sunday brunch...the possibilities are endless, you won't regret staying here. Arrive without the pretentious attitude and expectations, get back to rustic ambience and simple pleasures. You will leave refreshed and ready for the "big city" once again, okay maybe just for the drive back.
5 on October 15, 2014
The service here is the best and a carefully prepared breakfast that you will look forward to each morning. The new owners of this B&B are the most gracious people you will ever meet.
4.4 on October 04, 2014
This was our second visit to Knickerbocker Mansion and we will definitely be back. The room has fine, not exceptional, but clean and nice. I would like to see them change the TV to one that has a DVD player as the one in the room was old and only took VHS tapes. The location is beautiful in the downtown section of Big Bear. You can see the lake in the distance. Our favorite part was breakfast by Chef Robert. He makes delicious food and his service was amazing!
4.4 on September 25, 2014
The breakfast's were creative and delicious. The beds were not queen size which was stated in the info described in the brochure. The grounds were beautiful and the staff was wonderful. We enjoyed the experience and would return.

text: Odyssey Chp 1 entryAs soon as she stepped into the open gate, she felt trapped and claustrophobic. She tried stepping back into the portal to get back but it was a dead cause. Her struggle was fruitless and a searing pain shot through her head, sending her falling back against something soft and comfortable. The pain vanished just as rapidly as it had come. Her mind focused once again and looking down she realized what trapped her. A soft navy blue belt with a shining steal buckle securely wrapped around her abdomen and the seat. She looked behind her to check what She had fallen against and realized it was a grey airplane seat.Upon close inspection of the airplane, she concluded that it was a private jet since it had only two rows of seats, a fancy bar and a small refrigerator placed near the left exit. There were only eight windows on each side of the plane and only four people aboard that she could see, including herself. Her surroundings were just sinking into her when the pilot exited the cockpit a

"Vector based icons created to aid in the design, development, implementation and promotion of multi-touch interfaces. These icons will aid in the creation of wire-frame documents, digital help files and printed documentation. You can also use Gesturecons inside of your applications in order to demonstrate to users how to complete actions or prompt them to interact with an application when they approach it."
Nice looking set of icons for the iPhone tool bar in vector form.
Love this.
Taken by Jason Stoff
It sure is good looking and I really like what they did with that large image in the background web design wise, but we'll see about the price and speed in a few months when it's actually shipping. Oh, and I doubt I'll be switching to Sprint anytime soon either.
Looks pretty sweet. I'll be installing it later today/tonight, but from the demo, I'm impressed. Every once in a while I step back and think about everything that my iPhone can do and I'm amazed. The little device is far and away the best gizmo I've ever owned. Period.
I generally agree that location based services will be a big deal as the mobile web grows, but I noticed this too when using Brightkite and manual checked in places. I basically spend the majority of my time going to and from work.
"2005: Derision ("If we go out tonight I'll send you a fax.")"
The way they designed the unlock is fantastic and I like some of the stuff they did with the status bar at the top. None of the other features really wowed me, but it's good stuff and I love seeing the innovation.
Excellent set of stencils for when you need to wireframe out that new iPhone application.
Like dodgeball, but a bit more and hasn't been abandoned. A nice visual design and the interactions are solid. I'm not ready to predict big things from it yet, but it has potential.
Everything here looks great and I can't wait to see what new applications start coming out. The only problem? It's not coming out until June.
It's impressive they're letting you recycle any cell phone even if it's not an iPhone. Well done Apple.
Nathan Borror over at Playground Blues talks about how he setup his Django powered site for mobile, and for him that meant an iPhone site. It looks great, and now I just wish I had some snazzy icons like his for my sections.
It's no iPhone user interface but this new gallery set looks a lot better then almost all the the other mobile phone user interfaces out there. I'm glad to see the competition.
Leaflets, Blue Flavor's suite of web apps designed for iPhone, is a finalist for the SXSW web awards for mobile.
Edward Tufte giving kudos to the iPhone but also talking about ways it could be improved. I'm heading down to SF this weekend and get to see him speak on Monday.
I'm not a big user of the google application suite, but I poked around with this implementation and it looks like a great implementation for those that do.
Vigilante justice… I so want one.

Area Division I football teams begin season
By Doug Halberstadt
Sports Columnist
This is the week when Division I college football teams from throughout the state of Illinois begin their 2013 season. The first team to play this year will be the Illinois State Redbirds. They travel to Muncie, Ind., tomorrow night (Thursday, Aug. 29) for a 6 p.m. match-up with the Ball State Cardinals. The game will be televised on ESPN 3.
The remainder of the Illinois teams will all start their seasons Saturday, Aug. 31. Beginning with an 11 a.m. kickoff, the University of Illinois Fighting Illini and the Southern Illinois University Salukis will square off against one another in Memorial Stadium on the U of I campus in Champaign. The Big Ten Network will broadcast the game. Illinois will be looking to improve on their 2-10 record from a year ago.
The Northern Illinois Huskies have an afternoon game. They take on the University of Iowa Hawkeyes starting at 2:30 p.m. at the 70,000-seat Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City. The game will be broadcast on the Big Ten Network. The Huskies will be looking to avenge their 1-point (18-17) opening-day loss to the Hawkeyes last year when the two teams met at Soldier Field in Chicago.
Opening weekend will wrap up with a late-night (9:30 p.m.) start between the Northwestern University Wildcats and the University of California Bears. The game will be broadcast live from Berkeley on ESPN 2. Last year, the Wildcats were a bit of a pleasant surprise to their fans. They finished the 2012-13 season with a 10-3 overall record, despite a disappointing 5-3 Big Ten Conference record.
The nearest Division I team, the University of Wisconsin Badgers, also start their season this Saturday. They have a home game at Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wis., against the University of Massachusetts. Game time is 11 a.m. The Badgers were 8-6 overall last year and finished with a 4-4 conference record.
