Between Hurricane Sandy and the threat of winter weather, hardware stores are getting slammed too. Sure, it's good for business, as long as they can keep up. As our Erin Vannella reports, some local shops are working on a new way to do just that
ALBANY, N.Y. -- Phillips Hardware store owner Jon Phillips is starting an email and phone distribution list with other area hardware stores as a proactive means to give customers what they need, when they need it
Phillips said, "The idea came about that every time we get hit, when we don't have product, we start trying to direct customers where they can get it."
Take Sandy, for example. That spurred a regional run on generators, batteries and gas cans. Here in the Capital Region, hardware store owners could just check the list before waving the white flag.
"All us are out of gas cans, Gary Robinson at Robinson's had a load of gas cans. I had people looking for them, we're shooting them over to Gary," Phillips said. "And it goes across boards. Gary will get that and sometime I'm going to have something someone doesn't have and hopefully we'll go full circle."
Deane Pfeil said, "It's friendly competition."
Deane Pfeil owns Pfiel's Hardware with her husband. She says it's always profitable in the long run to put the customer first.
"Everyone's willing to help everybody else and gosh, we ran out of generators, we sent people to Jon because he had generators. It really works better to work together," Pfeil said.
Especially when it's as easy as a phone call or email. In the wake of tragedy, it's the least Phillips says they can do to help.
Phillips said, "You know, you never know how big on a scale these disasters are going to be. There might be a time that could be really serious that all of us really need to be connected and if we have to then start figuring out how to do that, we're not going to be able to react quick enough."

Damage is not to be discounted by tanking, but it will generally only be a make-or-break when you're looking at the bleeding edge, i.e. hard mode ICC.
What I'd expect from your build?
Before 3.3.3 the build would have lots of passive survival buffing and relatively VERY weak threat. Now? You will probably do fine, provided you use Icy Touch in high proportion.
My bigger issue with builds like this is that they are lacking in cohesive design. What do I mean?
Blood Runes = you will have a weak BS and a weak BB, neither of which will feel meaningful to hit
FU pairs = you generally won't want to use OB because it will wipe your diseases, but it will also hit relatively softly. Your DS will hit softly and heal for as little as it can. Generally, you will probably just want to use Frost runes for Icy Touch, which will give you plenty of threat, but be a bit boring. To go with that, PS will hit softly and feel like filler.
RP burning = RS is ever-present, but it will hit about as softly as you could get (without any of the passive damage buffs your threat suffers as well). You don't have FS, and your DC will not be anything special.
Overall, you have plenty of passive survival tools, but the spec will lack style and synergy that comes of actually playing to the design of a tree.
On some of your conclusions: Unholy Command has much more relevance in PvP or chain pulling instances. I liken this to glyphing taunt, if you are expecting to taunt a lot, you're trying to cover a lack of threat or poor skills at picking things up. Those are the things to fix, not just be able to taunt stuff back faster. There has been one clear place where Unholy Command has been very useful in pve: Malygos for pulling in sparks.
Mark of Blood is a great spell, but it is not an oh sh*t button. It will not save your life usually when things are bad, it is a tool worth using to ease the damage for healers in non-emergencies and is heavily worth using on CD if you have good places to use it (like Unbreakable Armor).
Glyphing Dark Command is a little silly unless you *absolutely* need for your taunts not to miss (i.e. tank swapping fights in progression for your raid team). You will normally have a fairly low miss chance if you have any hit rating, and if your first taunt misses and it absolutely can't wait for the CD, you can Death Grip. The chances of missing both are slim.
If you are looking for threat buffing glyphs, OB, FS, and DS are probably all out for the reasons listed above. I wouldn't go with Frost Fever though, despite not having a lot working in its favor, RS will probably be your strongest threat glyph. Frost Fever will only be a remotely comparable threat value when you are tanking a very large group. That said, it will support your AoE threat, since you only have DnD to really help with that (your diseases will be light, your BB will be light, and you have no HB).
Could it function? Possibly.
Will it be fun? Most likely not.
Try it out and see what you think.

Genocide in Slow Motion
Darfur: A Short History of a Long War
Darfur: The Ambiguous Genocide
The same paralysis occurred as Rwandans were being slaughtered in 1994. Officials from Europe to the US to the UN headquarters all responded by temporizing and then, at most, by holding meetings. The only thing President Clinton did for Rwandan genocide victims was issue a magnificent apology after they were dead.
Much the same has been true of the Western response to the Armenian genocide of 1915, the Cambodian genocide of the 1970s, and the Bosnian massacres of the 1990s. In each case, we have wrung our hands afterward and offered the lame excuse that it all happened too fast, or that we didn't fully comprehend the carnage when it was still under way.
And now the same tragedy is unfolding in Darfur, but this time we don't even have any sort of excuse. In Darfur genocide is taking place in slow motion, and there is vast documentary proof of the atrocities. Some of the evidence can be seen in the photo reproduced with this essay, which was leaked from an African Union archive containing thousands of other such photos. And now, the latest proof comes in the form of two new books that tell the sorry tale of Darfur: it's appalling that the publishing industry manages to respond more quickly to genocide than the UN and world leaders do.
In my years as a journalist, I thought I had seen a full kaleidoscope of horrors, from babies dying of malaria to Chinese troops shooting students to Indonesian mobs beheading people. But nothing prepared me for Darfur, where systematic murder, rape, and mutilation are taking place on a vast scale, based simply on the tribe of the victim. What I saw reminded me why people say that genocide is the worst evil of which human beings are capable.
On one of the first of my five visits to Darfur, I came across an oasis along the Chad border where several tens of thousands of people were sheltering under trees after being driven from their home villages by the Arab Janjaweed militia, which has been supported by the Sudan government in Khartoum. Under the first tree, I found a man who had been shot in the neck and the jaw; his brother, shot only in the foot, had carried him for forty-nine days to get to this oasis. Under the next tree was a widow whose parents had been killed and stuffed in the village well to poison the local water supply; then the Janjaweed had tracked down the rest of her family and killed her husband. Under the third tree was a four-year-old orphan girl carrying her one-year-old baby sister on her back; their parents had been killed. Under the fourth tree was a woman whose husband and children had been killed in front of her, and then she was gang-raped and left naked and mutilated in the desert.
Those were the people I met under just four adjacent trees. And in every direction, as far as I could see, were more trees and more victims—all with similar stories.
There is no space in most newspaper articles to explain how this came to pass, and that is why the recent books under review are invaluable. The best introduction is Darfur: A Short History of a Long War, by Julie Flint and Alex de Waal. Both writers are intimately familiar with Darfur—Ms. Flint reportedly came close to getting herself killed there when traveling with rebels in 2004—and their accounts are as readable as they are tragic.
The killing in Darfur, a vast region in western Sudan, is not a case of religious persecution, since the killers as well as the victims of this genocide are Muslim. But, like the Christian and animist parts of southern Sudan, Darfur has traditionally been neglected by the Arabs (and before them, the British) who held power in Khartoum, the Sudanese capital. Flint and de Waal write that the British colonial rulers deliberately restricted education in Darfur to the sons of chiefs, so as not to produce rabble-rousers who might challenge their authority. As a result, in 1935, all of Darfur had only one full-fledged elementary school. There was no maternity clinic until the 1940s, and at independence in 1956 Darfur had fewer hospital beds than any other part of Sudan. After independence, Sudan's own leaders nationalized this policy of malign neglect.
One result was the terrible Darfur famine of 1984 and 1985, which de Waal earlier made the subject of a powerful case study, Famine That Kills.1 That book has been reissued with a new preface because of the interest in Darfur, and it makes the point that, in places like Sudan, "'to starve' is transitive; it is something people do to each other." The Darfur famine was the result not just of drought, but also of reckless mismanagement and indifference in the Sudanese government. It was transitive starvation.
During the 1980s and 1990s, ethnic antagonisms were also rising in Darfur. The civil war in neighboring Chad spilled over into Darfur and led some Arab tribes to adopt a supremacist ideology. Meanwhile, the spread of the Sahara desert intensified the competition between Arab and non-Arab tribes for water and forage.
The other book under review, Gérard Prunier's Darfur: The Ambiguous Genocide, makes the point that the shorthand descriptions from Darfur of Arabs killing black Africans are oversimplified. He's right—there has been intermarriage between tribes, and it's hardly accurate to talk about Arabs killing Africans when they're all Africans. The racial element is confusing, because to Western eyes, although not to local people, almost everyone looks black. And of course the very concept of an Arab is a loose one; with no consistent racial or ethnic meaning, it normally refers to a person whose mother tongue is Arabic.
But while shorthand descriptions are simplistic, they're also essentially right. In Darfur, the cleavages between the Janjaweed and their victims tend to be threefold. First, the Janjaweed and Sudanese government leaders are Arabs and their victims in Darfur are members of several non-Arab African tribes, particularly the Zaghawa, Fur, and Masalit. Second, the killers are frequently lighter-skinned, and they routinely use racial epithets about the "blacks" they are killing and raping. Third, the Janjaweed are often nomadic herdsmen, and the tribes they attack are usually settled farmers, so the conflict also reflects the age-old tension between herders and farmers.
The leader of the Janjaweed, whom the Sudanese government entrusted with the initial waves of slaughter in Darfur, is usually said to be Musa Hilal, the chief of an Arab nomadic tribe. His own hostility to non-Arabs long predates the present genocide. Flint and de Waal quote a former governor of Darfur as saying that Musa Hilal was recorded back in 1988 as expressing gratitude for "the necessary weapons and ammunition to exterminate the African tribes in Darfur." In the mid-1990s, the early version of the Janjaweed (with the connivance of Sudan's leaders) was responsible for the slaughter of at least two thousand members of the Masalit tribe. In 2001 and 2002, there were brutal attacks on villages belonging to the Fur and Zaghawa tribes.
The upshot was increasing alarm and unrest, particularly among the three major non-Arab tribes in Darfur. Their militants began to organize an armed movement against the Sudanese government, and in June 2002 they attacked a police station. The beginning of their rebellion is usually dated to early in 2003, when they burned government garrisons and destroyed military aircraft at an air base.
That's when the Sudanese government, led by President Omar el-Bashir, decided to launch a scorched-earth counterinsurgency campaign, involving the slaughter of large numbers of people in Darfur. It was difficult to use the army for this, though, partly because many soldiers in the regular army were members of African tribes from Darfur—and so it wasn't clear that they would be willing to wipe out civilians from their own tribes. The Sudanese leadership therefore decided to adopt the same strategy it had successfully employed elsewhere in Sudan, using irregular militias to slaughter tribes that had shown signs of resistance.
This wasn't a surprise decision. As Prunier writes: "The whole of GoS [Government of Sudan] policy and political philosophy since it came to power in 1989 has kept verging on genocide in its general treatment of the national question in Sudan." Flint and de Waal call this "counterinsurgency on the cheap" and note:
In Bahr el Ghazal in 1986–88, in the Nuba Mountains in 1992–95, in Upper Nile in 1998–2003, and elsewhere on just a slightly smaller scale, militias supported by military intelligence and aerial bombardment attacked with unremitting brutality. Scorched earth, massacre, pillage and rape were the norm.
In other words, when Sudan's leaders were faced with unrest in Darfur, their instinctive response was to start massacring civilians. It had worked before, and it had aroused relatively little international reaction. Among the few who vociferously protested the brutal Sudanese policies in southern Sudan in the 1990s were American evangelical Christians, partly because many of the victims then were Christians; some American evangelicals have complained to me that the American press and television are now calling attention to Muslim victims in Sudan after years of ignoring similar massacres of Christians in southern Sudan in the past. The comparison they make does not seem to me entirely convincing, but they have a point. It's probably true that if there had been more reaction to Sudanese brutality in the southern part of the country during the 1990s, the government might not have been so quick to launch genocidal attacks in Darfur.
After it had decided to crush the incipient rebellion in Darfur, Sudan's government released Arab criminals from prison and turned them over to the custody of Musa Hilal so that they could join the Janjaweed. The government set up training camps for the Janjaweed, gave them assault rifles, truck-mounted machine guns, and artillery. Recruits received $79 a month if they were on foot, or $117 if they had a horse or camel. They also received Sudanese army uniforms with a special badge depicting an armed horseman. Prunier quotes a survivor from one of the attacks that quickly followed:
The Janjaweed were accompanied by soldiers. They attacked the people, saying: "You are opponents to the regime, we must crush you. As you are Black, you are like slaves. Then the entire Darfur region will be in the hands of the Arabs. The government is on our side. The government plane is on our side, it gives us food and ammunition."
Flint and de Waal quote a young man who hid under a dead mule and was the only survivor in his family:
[The attackers] took a knife and cut my mother's throat and threw her into the well. Then they took my oldest sister and began to rape her, one by one. My father was kneeling, crying and begging them for mercy. After that they killed my brother and finally my father. They threw all the bodies in the well.

Colorado University finds Prius plug-in hybrids a hit; online assistance, not so much
by Sebastian Blanco (RSS feed) on Oct 23rd, 2012 at 1:14PM
In 2008, Boulder, CO became the "first Smart Grid City in the nation." It wasn't just a name, it was a step along the way for the town to become a green energy incubator. A few years later, Toyota sponsored a test program with 28 Prius Plug-In Hybrid vehicles conducted by Colorado University. CU has now released its preliminary findings from the two-year study, and the gist is that the left-leaning Boulderites loved driving on electrons but mostly didn't care about the additional benefits of controlling their electricity pricing or kWh usage that were available online. The 28 plug-ins... Read More

New Moon Details
New Moon is Friday, June 27 at 3:08 am CDT while Moon is in Gemini and Ardra nakshatra. Ruled by Rudra and Rahu, Ardra nakshatra brings with it a certain intensity- whether through the emotions or through physical movement and change; think forcefulness. Rudra is connected to storms, storm energy, as well as prana as he is the father of the Maruts, or inner winds.
Externally he manifests as a storm god; internally he manifests as the five types of Prana within the body. Harnessing the winds can be powerful for inner change or outer change. His association with anger and intense emotion is an example of his abilities with power. Anger after all is extremely powerful and is a form of passion and strength. How will you use this strength in the coming cycle?
This New Moon is not the silent, soft and quiet kind. For there is immense power available to us at this time. It is quiet and inward as any empty new Moon is, yet be mindful of the power available within this silence. What are you creating? Cultivating? And inviting in at this time? What is your relationship to the inner and outer winds?
For the coming waxing cycle, use meditation, pranayama and yoga to get the inner prana moving. As the Moon fills, attend to the needs of the inner winds. Emotional well being is intimately related to physical well being. Use this coming cycle to attend to your inner dynamics.
Share a free sample Soul Mate Compatibility. Are you with your true Soul Mate? Discover if you are with the person that you can share sorrows and triumphs with!
Work with emotions directly and note where the challenges arrive. Are you attending to your needs? Letting the mind run the show? Bypassing the emotions? Does the body have a message for you that you have been neglecting to listen to? Listen closely for clues and your inner wisdom. I will be starting an Emotional Body series in July so stay tuned for tips and resources.
The coming full Moon is the most auspicious of the year! Guru Purnima happens on July 11th. This full moon will be particularly powerful as Rahu and Ketu change signs after 18 months in Libra and Ketu respectively, just hours after the fullest full Moon of the year. Following this transition Rahu and Mars will be in exact conjunction and then Venus and Sun change signs within days.
This is an exciting time -- poised for change and explosive energy. I will be sharing more about this in my next Horoscope post and also in my upcoming weekly Moon Mind Calendar. Planetary transit report is now included in my weekly Moon Mind Calendar. Don't miss a post, sign up for my newsletter.

Sergio Perez is starting to settle nicely into his role at McLaren with the Mexican topping the timesheets on day two in Barcelona.
The 23-year-old, who completed 97 laps on Wednesday, hit the front with a 1:21.848, in the afternoon while he focused on single flying laps on soft tyres. He is the only driver to have dipped under the 1:22 mark so far at the Circuit de Catalunya.
His time was 0.349s better than that of morning pacesetter Sebastian Vettel (also softs), but it was once again a case of the regulars dominating proceedings with Kimi Raikkonen of Lotus, Mercedes' Lewis Hamilton and Fernando Alonso from Ferrari completing the top five.
Vettel endured a mixed day at the office, posting the best time in the morning session but then being forced to spend some time in the garage late afternoon after a loose wheel following a pit stop forced him to stop.
The team, though, insist it wasn't a major issue and they will be back to their best on Wednesday.
Raikkonnen was third fastest with a 1:22.697, but he also had some reliability issues as a gearbox problem forced him to miss most of the morning action. He completed only 43 laps in the afternoon, but his time was good enough for third.
Hamilton was the busiest man on the track as he completed 121 laps, posting a best time of 1:22.726 on the hard tyres while Alonso was fifth with a 1:23.247.

|How to join the documentation and translation teams:
Teams introduction
Documentation Team
The ZF documentation team helps with tasks and projects affecting all versions of the manual. Many tasks require only basic English skills, so we strongly encourage participation by everyone. All documentation team members are also encouraged to help with the English manual. Many edits, improvements, example contributions, and merging of user-contributed comments do not require strong English skills. Content and accuracy are much more important than "perfect" English, and English experts can adjust wording as needed later.
The documentation team has the authority to edit the English manual. Documentation project team members include:
- All Translation project members
- All English manual project members
- All Zend ZF team members
- Andries Seutens:
- automatic translation of docbook to HTML
- automatic translation of docbook to Wiki
- automatic translation of Wiki to docbook
Translation Teams
Each translation team gets his own wiki page. On these pages the team can list its members and resume where the team is needing help, e.g. We encourage people to communicate in whatever language they prefer. The language translation team wiki pages support UTF-8, including Japanese and Chinese. Translation teams include:
- Arabic (????)
- Brazilian Portuguese (Português Brasileiro)
- Chinese (??)
- Dutch (Nederlands)
- English (help wanted)
- French (Français)
- German (Deutsch)
- Hebrew (?????)
- Italian (Italiano)
- Japanese (Nihongo)
- Polish (Polski)
- Russian
- Slovak (Slovenská)
- Spanish (Español)
If you see this "[~nocla]", then please ask that person to send a CLA before contributing.
Using this Wiki to Support the Teams - Help wanted
Wiki Maintainers
The ZF Sidebar helps greatly, the organization and look and feel of our wiki pages could be improved. Drupal's website demonstrates an orchestrated, planned arrangement and organization of content. Their content is somewhat similar to that found in the ZF wikis, so perhaps we can borrow some organizational ideas.
We are looking for volunteers to proactively define this team's mission, responsibilities, and tasks.
- Managig: http://framework.zend.com/wiki/display/ZFUSER/Home
- Maintaining site maps for each wiki space
- Provides recommendations for changes to ZFDEV, etc. wiki spaces
Milestones & Tasks
- Improving organization of wiki
- To make sure users can easily find what they are looking for in our wiki
- Bring logic structure in every page, and set some standards
- Site Maps
Goals / Motivation / Tasks
- Make a PDF and HTML copy of the manual available for download.
- Make smaller edits easier, and possible by at least everyone on the documentation / translation teams, possibly including all CLA signers.
- Reduce the learning curve and effort required to make edits to the manual and translations.
- Allow anyone to comment on each section, but with comment moderation, so that the manual can evolve more quickly and with more flexibility than the current process.
- Need notification system for edits (e.g. the wiki "watch"/notifications feature)
- Follow a documentation style guide and proofread before it is released.
- Need to support offline editing of content, ideally with a plain-text import/export capability. Alternatively:
1. Click the "Edit" tab for the page
2. Select all and copy the wiki markup
3. Paste it into my text editor
4. Save a copy as "page title.txt.orig"
5. Save a copy as "page title.txt"
6. Continue editing "page title.txt" [offline] until complete
7. Review the diff of "page title.txt.orig" and "page title.txt", revising the latter as necessary
8. Paste the revised wiki text into the wiki markup tab of the page editor, and save the page
In this way, one can work on the wiki pages offline when needed.
Edits from different authors can be merged using the wiki.
- Quick access: type http://framework.zend.com/zend_controller similar to php.net, where you can easily access a specific function by appending it to the url
- Unreleased incubator documents should be avaiable in wiki, but not added when extracting to HTML and PDF (Maybe tagging or a seperated wiki space).
- Some contributors are writing like "this function can handle xxxx" other as "you can handle xxxx with this function"... note the first person stlye... a defined write style is must and makes the document flow smoothly as a whole.
- Automatically generate HTML and PDF for each language, either directly from the wiki, or from docbook, after auto-generating docbook from the wiki.
Subject: Proposal: Major Change to Facilitate Participation with English Manual
Date: Tue, 05 Sep 2006 13:27:17 -0700
From: Gavin Vess <firstname.lastname@example.com>
To: email@example.com
I would like to propose a change to how we write the English manual. I
think we have documented numerous cases and examples where the current
process imposes too many hurdles, complications, and effort for those
wishing to use it and contribute. Since the vendor of our current wiki
successfully uses their own product for their manual, including
generating the PDF and HTML, we would like to consider the implications
of switching from authoring content in docbook to using our wiki.
We are proposing opening up the English documentation process to
participation by all documentation team members, and allowing wiki page
commenting by anyone, but with reasonable moderation by the
documentation team members, following in the footsteps of wikipedia. In
order to help achieve consistency, we are also proposing borrowing
mozilla.org's documentation style guide, subject to exceptions you might
recommend (hint).
The process for adding content and editing the ZF manual pages might
benefit from the use of a wiki that allows user-contributed comments.
How many times have you wanted to make a suggestion or change to the
English manual, but not done so?
Please enter our brainstorm time, where we can openly consider all ideas
to help synthesize a final proposal, before decisions are made.
For the mechanics of this new process, we could setup two new wikis.
One would contain the last official release for public viewing and
commenting. The other would be a draft, work-in-progress with comments
rolled into the body of the page before pages are "released". When we
prepare for a release, changed pages could be copied to the official
release wiki. Then, translators could use the wiki "difference" feature
to see what has changed in the English manual on the release wiki,
without seeing all the interim edits made in the draft wiki.
There might be a wiki plugin that allows tagging and viewing differences
between tags ( http://confluence.atlassian.com/display/CONFEXT/Home ).
If so, such a feature/plugin might eliminate the need for having two
wikis. I am not eager to consider using a different wiki, as it would
significantly complicate user account administration and logins. The
current wiki already supports UTF8 text.
Our current wiki system supports export to PDF and HTML, although the
exports are "plain", and might require some creative manipulation, such
as using Zend_Pdf to beautify it. I agree entirely with recent posts
about the value of providing HTML and PDF downloads for the manual.
Several questions remain, including the docbook import/export process
for our wiki (Confluence):
Also, incubator components using the wiki for documentation would make
documentation available immediately, without requiring the curious to go
through the process of "building the manual". Many of us would like to
help with documentation for the new incubator components. Group editing
of a wiki page has advantages over trying to coordinate editing of the
documentation via SVN.
Research plugins and current efforts to export the wiki to docbook.
Research possibility of tagging pages, such that a PDF could be created
from tagged pages.
http://confluence.atlassian.com/x/8hIC - information on features,
including the user manual (in their wiki)
Consider adding "edit last comment" to our issue tracker (Jira), and
search for a way to do so with our wiki (Confluence).
Decide on moderation process / policy for comments.

Olivia & Co. Boutique celebrates first birthday
Olivia & Co. Boutique is celebrating its first birthday next Thursday, September 22, but it will be customers who receive the presents.
"We're going to give away gifts every half hour, with refreshments and other special treats," said owner Olivia Powers. "The fun will continue from 11 a.m. until 8 p.m. as a way to show that we do everything we can to please the ladies who shop here."
Before opening the boutique nearly a year ago, Olivia honed her business skills in other pursuits, such as running her own surf 'n' turf-style restaurant in southwest Jefferson County. When she closed it in 1985, she began looking for a new enterprise.
"I had started getting bored," she said. "I like being creative, so I went to an auction and bought two truckloads of materials, including beads and leather for making belts and jewelry. There I was with a basement full of stuff I'd bought, so I figured that I should make some money with it."
Olivia found that it was surprisingly easy to make earrings and other accessories; in fact, the most difficult aspect of her new endeavor was finding a steady supply of the materials she wanted. Her next step was to search for stores and shows in which she could sell her handmade wares.
"It wasn't very hard, because I had good friends helping me," she said. "I even went to Florida and found about 10 stores that wanted to sell my merchandise."
Thanks to those friends, along with customers who were charmed by her creations, Olivia branched out into personal shopping. Time and again, she traveled to New York to scout for top fashions on behalf of her clients. In the back of her mind, however, she couldn't shake the dream of opening a clothing store of her own.
Last September, she made her wish come true. Today, Olivia & Co. Boutique is the exclusive local retailer for brands such as Simon Chang and is brimming with stylish apparel by Dolce Vita, Sao Paolo and Alberto Makali – even comfortable shoes by Onex.
"I've actually been kind of surprised at how well we've been doing. Once people know we're here, we'll do even better," she said. "We try to please everybody: We carry a wide range of sizes, including bigger ones, and we have a hat designer on site before Derby. If we don't have what a shopper wants, we'll do our best to get it or help her find it."
Olivia & Co. Boutique, which is located in the (Hunnington Place shopping center, 1850 S. Hurstbourne Pkwy., is open Monday and Saturday, 11 a.m. – 4 p.m.; Thursday, 11 a.m.-7 p.m.; Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday, 11 a.m.-6 p.m.; and is closed on Sunday. For information, phone 502.384.3694.

Glad I did as its practically the same as using my phone just bigger.Works fine with most apps on the google market, some say imcompatible with this device however I think they are the ones with a licence, ie Sky GO.Really happy with this purchase.

This is the time of year when everyone is getting out and about on their new bike. We see many new faces down at LTR Sports who are bringing in old bikes for service, or shopping for a new bike.
As enthusiast riders, we always ask about our customers' latest rides, adventures, or trips they took with their bike. For half of the riders, it brings joy and excitement to their faces when describing their latest two-wheel fun. The second half of people describe to me how they haven't ridden their bike in years or how every ride leaves them in pain, from hands, neck, back and arm discomfort.
When shopping for a new bike, it is important to be sized correctly and fit to a bike. Whether you are riding on the bike path, circling the Monument, doing your first triathlon, or cranking out the miles on the mountain bike, a proper fit is important.
Bikes are made for the average person, and have been made to allow adjustments to fit the rider. For example, the seat post moves up and down, the saddle slides back and forth, the stem can be shortened or lengthened, and the handlebars can go up or down. Sadly, only a handful of cyclists see a professional bike fitter and use these options to adjust the bike to their body.
A professional bike fitter is someone who specializes in fitting a bike to a rider, rather than a rider to a stock bike. At the shop, we often see riders who have a bike that is too short, and too upright for them. This is very common and can be seen by the hunch in their back, the strain in their neck, and the lack of efficiency in their pedal stroke (Figure B). Many bike fitters, who have taken multiple classes and have specialized in the trade for years, can spot this right away. Others who use software and basics to measure angles will often miss this. They will see the basic angles from hip to torso, and torso to arms as being correct, which they are. Unfortunately, much of the software programs or "eyeball" methods do not account for the arch of the back.
Now look at Figure A and see how the angles from torso to limbs are the same, but the back is straight. In this position, there is no back pain or neck pain - the body is in a linear plane. Most riders who have back pain and neck pain, look like Figure B, and raise their handlebars. A good fitter will make stem length/angle changes to alleviate the pain and create a flat back.
Before you put that bike away for another season after sitting in pain, see a professional bike fitter and make this your most enjoyable cycling season ever! Just like getting measurements from a tailor to custom make a suit, a bike fitter will measure and make adjustments to create the proper and most comfortable cycling position.
Steinberg is the manager of LTR Sports and a professional cyclist. Visit ltrsports.com for more information.

I absolutely love the product, it holds my color longer and leaves my hair soft and manageable. The only disappointment with this particular product was that the tubes of conditioner were only about 2/3 full while the shampoo was completely full, and I use more conditioner than shampoo.

Hi everyone,
I am going to visit a Buddhist Temple soon and i noticed under the activities there was a "Lunch Dana".I know it means offering or sharing food for the monks or nuns.i think.
1.But how would I go about doing that?Do i bring my own plate?Do i use a takeaway style box and give it to them or Do I literally share it off my plate and put it into their plate or bowl etc..?
2.What kinds of food would you think is proper for them?Like can i serve them meat or are they strictly vegetarian.Should i serve hot foods or cold foods.I live pretty far away and take public transport so i don't know how the food's going to remain hot.Like i don't think i can serve them steaming hot soups or something.Are the foods i am supposed to serve already cooked like ready to eat or are they still in the packaging,Like noodles for example.
3.Is it strictly just food or Can i serve them drinks too.Like orange juice or fruit juice or milk.They can drink water after noon right?so it's not necessary to offer them a bottle of water.
What types of food would be suitable for the monks and nuns.I want to offer them something that i know they could really use..certain foods that will really help sustain them during the day so they can practice more.
any advice.Thank you.

Instead of beef jerky:
Rolled slices of roast beef
One little package of jerky will cost you 230 calories — and leave you hankering for more. Slash the calories in half with a rolled slice of lean roast beef: an equally hearty chew with the same savory taste.
Instead of buffalo wings with bleu cheese:
Grilled tenders with hot sauce
Those crispy-fried wings can approach 1,000 calories once you add the bleu cheese. "Naked" (unfried) chicken tenders topped with savory hot sauce are the best way to get that fiery Buffalo flavor for under 200 calories.
Instead of candy bars:
Special K Protein Chocolate Bar
We understand: sometimes only chocolate will do. But it's next to impossible to put down a candy bar. Rather than OD on the sugar and fat, try a snack-size protein bar that clocks in at under 200 calories.
Instead of dried, sugared fruit:
Fresh orange wedges or pineapple rings
The sugar and preservatives in dried fruit ratchet up the nutritional stats to the point that it's no longer healthy. Fresh fruits are literally bursting with the good stuff, filling you up on fewer calories. Four pieces of dried pineapple are 260 calories; the fresh version is 120.
Instead of flavored yogurt:
Plain yogurt with fresh or frozen fruit
Most flavored yogurts are too loaded with sugar to qualify as a smart snack. Stick with a plain-yogurt base for a fruit snack; this way, you've got control over what you want to add. Jazz it up with berries (fresh or frozen) or half a banana for a filling and nutritious 100-calorie snack.
Instead of fruit candy (starbursts):
Frozen grapes or frozen cherries
Rarely do we prefer our food frozen, but trust us: pop your grapes and cherries into the ice bin, then enjoy as a chewy fruit snack. 15 Starbursts will cost you 300 calories; 15 grapes, less than 70. Snack away!
Instead of fudge brownie:
Chocolate-covered strawberries
Ooey-gooey fudge hits the spot, but at 300 calories, there's got to be a better way to get your chocolate fix. Strawberries dipped in chocolate not only gratify; they're nutritious, filling and only 30 calories each.
Instead of gummi treats:
Small box of raisins or 100% fruit leather
Sure, those little bears are cute. But by the time you've beheaded enough to feel sated, you've already consumed 200 calories! Try a mini-box of raisins or a roll of fruit leather for the same chewy taste sensation at under 50 calories!
Instead of hot pocket pizza:
English muffin pizzas
Hot pockets will set you back 320 calories'Ķand that's not so cool. This English-muffin swap is a snap to make: split a whole-grain muffin, spoon with tomato sauce and sprinkle with mozzarella cheese. Easy assembly with kitchen staples means you'll save a few bucks, too!
Instead of ice cream:
Single-stick Fudgsicles or Creamsicles
The problem with ice cream: It's all too easy to scoop WAY more than a half-cup serving into your dish. Novelties like Fudgsicles and Creamsicles are so satisfying to polish off — and at under 100 calories a pop, why not?
Instead of mixed nuts:
What's in that nut medley, anyway? Pecans, walnuts, peanuts — plus 400 calories and a considerable amount of fat. Pick pistachios: the time it takes to de-shell them will help you pace yourself. Plus, you can enjoy 50 (yes, 50) for 160 calories!
Instead of nachos and cheese:
Corn chips and salsa
500 calories between meals? No, thanks. Nachos slathered in cheese sauce are a double-whammy of snack sabotage. A handful of corn chips and salsa will supply the same savory crunch with more nutrients, such as lycopene, at under 200 calories.
Instead of orange julius smoothie:
Fruit smoothie
Can't resist the food court? Slurping a sherbet- or cream-based fruit drink means swallowing upwards of 600 calories. Keep your smoothie fruit-based and sized small, so it qualifies as a snack (200 calories) rather than a liquefied meal.
Instead of pop tart pastry:
Quaker's chewy chocolate-chip granola bar
Here's a wake-up call: these breakfast bars are 400 calories a pair. Get that chewy-gooey taste in a healthier package with a 100-calorie granola bar.
Instead of pretzels:
Large apple
They're tiny, cute and addictive — so it's all too easy to polish off 300 calories' worth of pretzels. Sink your teeth into a 90-calorie apple instead. We guarantee you won't devour a whole bag - and it fills your stomach like a snack should.
Instead of pudding:
Sugar free Jell-O with fat-free Cool Whip
One dish of pudding can run hundreds of calories — overstepping its bounds as a snack. But gelatin, with the sugar removed, is practically calorie-free. Top with a generous dollop of fat-free Cool Whip to mimic that creamy pudding texture.
Instead of ritz crackers:
Triscuit thin crisps
You won't miss the Ritz at all. These crisps are salty, hearty and crunchy — taking care of your cracker craving on far fewer calories and saturated fat. Enjoy 15 crackers for 130 calories (as compared to 240).
Instead of salted nuts:
Finally: salty taste in a healthy package! Edamame, or soybeans, aren't just meant for popping into your mouth before the sushi arrives at the table. They're lower in fat than nuts, but equally high in protein — which means they fill you up as they slake your salt craving.
Instead of tortilla chips:
Microwave popcorn
It's just as crunchy-delicious as tortilla chips, but lighter and more airy — which means you can eat more kernels for fewer calories. (Nuke a 100-calorie portion — you'll be shocked at the heaping portion!) Sneak it into the movies to avoid buying the jumbo tubs; they're too much of a good thing.
Instead of whipped frapuccinos:
Skim milk latte
We're spilling the beans: whipped cream, blended chips and flavored syrups push this snack into decadent-dessert territory, at upwards of 300 calories. A skim latte pairs the rich taste of coffee with a filling shot of milk for under 70 calories per cup.

Nomads' Day festival
A cultural revival is proving a big hit with visitors and locals alike: For two days each September 17 to 18, which is symbolized an auspicious day the 17th of the second month of autumn, according to the oriental calendar, the steppes of Mongolia are alive with the sound of nomads, in what's become an extraordinary revival andpreservation of Mongolian nomad culture. It is organized by in-bound Mongolian tour operator Selena Travel brings local nomadic groups to the beautiful Gun-Galuut natural reserve in Bayandelger soum (county). In just five years, it has grown from a small local tourist event to widely celebrated cultural festival.Before Gun-Galuut became a nature reserve, the locals only lived on their livestock, milk, cashmere, wool and meat. It was not much for these families, so there was a gradual exodus from the countryside to the nearest towns. Now the reserve and cultural tours- including the Nomads Day festival – are giving the local communities a chance to make an income from tourism.
Another purpose to organize this festival is that in general, tourists come to Mongolia for on average 7 to 10 days. But in that short time they can't see all aspects of Mongolian lifestyle, festivals, horse racing, archery, wrestling, try Mongolian dishes and sense the culture. Tourists who come to Mongolia in July can see the Naadam Festival, but those come in other seasons can't. Therefore, Nomad's day festival is dedicated tourists to show them aspects they are interested in within two days and it is a holiday to inspire the nomads to reinstate traditions and compete with each other too.
You will meet real nomads in their traditional costumes and competing with their incredible heritage on nomadic traditions, witness young nomadic kids showing off their mental ability, see the contest of traditionally dressed beautiful nomadic couples, see a thrilling folk concert of various nomadic groups and will be treated with mouth-watering steppe delicacies and a mini Naadam - Three Manly Games of the Mongols "Archery, Wrestling and Horse Racing".
It begins with rival families competing to put up and take down a ger (the Mongolian tent dwelling made from canvas, felt and wooden poles), and over the two days kids and adults play games, guys on horseback try to pick the things off the ground at a gallop, and women make rope. Another event is called Smiles of Mongolia, a kind of beauty/talent contest for riding couples, and then there are the Three Manly games of Mongolia. The evening feature a wonderful folk festival and the festivities conclude with a "Delicacies of Chinggis" gala dinner and bonfire party to enjoy the best of nomadic traditional cuisine enriched with some Western tastes.
They have enjoyed themselves so much that they were already planning to return next year.
What had they liked most in Mongolia? Loren thought for a while, and said, "In America the culture of ownership prevails. This is different here. Everyone shares the land and shares hospitality, food, and animals. Sharing is such a wonderful thing and in America we don't have this."

For blocks of text, sprintf() is slow according to my tests.
Also, having the mapping between place-holders and the list of actual variables or datastructures often makes this code difficult to read. But the printf() family are widely supported and have a huge range of nice features. Performance is a cold mistress though!
From an ease-of-reading and maintenance, debugging point of view, I much prefer HEREDOC and "...{$variable}..." methods.
For a block of HTML markup with place holders, the fastest by far was:-
<div> markup etc<?= $variable ?>more markup
My tests comprised 20 runs of a loop of 1 million iterations with output buffering, ditching the buffer on each loop.
The timings ranged from average 2.1msec/million repetitions for the <?= $var ?> method up to 7.6msec/million using printf().
I'll try some benchmarking tools too, since I just wrote this myself and it could be introducing bias, but they've run on dev servers with low load.
Hopefully interesting.

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. - The honeybee, an insect integral to the agricultural world because of its handy pollination of crops, will be honored this Friday and Saturday, April 12-13 at the fifth annual Palisade International Honey Bee Festival. "Honeybee populations are declining worldwide," said Jean Tally, an event organizer. "Suffice it to say, it's a worldwide problem and this is a major agricultural area."The festival is the creation of one local group, formed specifically "to bring attention to the threatened honeybee population," according to the event website at palisadehoneybeefest.org. "The event is the brainchild of former resident and beekeeper Tina Darrah.""It's a way to engage people in a very relaxed setting," Tally said. "Saturday is supposed to be a beautiful day, with sunshine and 70-degree weather."Friday's opening at the Blue Pig Gallery, 101 W. Third St., will feature bee-themed artwork and jewelry, mead (a wine beverage made from honey) from the Meadery of the Rockies, and hors d'oeuvres, gallery director Kay Crane said. It's planned from 5-8 p.m. Saturday's main event, which includes a spelling bee for kids, vendors, art made from bee products, speakers, live music and food, is scheduled downtown from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. A new feature this year will be a children's contest for the best bee costume in which prizes will be awarded. Also, the Mesa County Library Palisade branch on Third Street will host a special bee storytime for children.The Town of Palisade will also provide continuous shuttle service on the "Buzz Mobile" every half hour from the Town Plaza with stops at the Palisade Community Center to see the Peach Blossom Art Show, the Meadery of the Rockies for on-site tours, and Wine Country Inn, according to a news release.For a full event schedule, visit www.palisadehoneybeefest.org.

When the administration of the Western College for Women – now a part of Miami University – opened its campus to civil rights activists in 1964, the institution followed its long tradition of independence and innovation. An estimated 700 young, idealistic college students from across the north arrived in Oxford, Ohio for voter registration training before leaving to serve in Mississippi to register African-Americans to vote and assist with local community projects, like Freedom schools and the building of community centers.
Today, the story of Freedom Summer has the power to evoke important questions about American identity, public life, engagement, and commitment. This exhibit will focus on local resident Roland Duerksen and former student volunteers Carole Colca and Mark Levy. They have left the legacy of their work in the Western College Memorial Archives. This exhibit, which includes photographs, letters, audio recordings, and an interactive map of Mississippi, will serve as a narrative of their dedication to civil rights and social justice.

Deer-antler spray supplier tells his story in bizarre 'news conference'
BY ADAM L. JAHNS firstname.lastname@example.com February 1, 2013 11:53PM
Super Bowl XLVII - Preview
Updated: March 3, 2013 6:16AM
NEW ORLEANS — In a bizarre scene that continued for almost two hours outside the New Orleans convention center, the athletic trainer who reportedly supplied Ray Lewis with a banned substance ripped Sports Illustrated for its reporting, apologized to any athletes hurt by it, posed for pictures with bottles of deer-antler spray, scrolled through text messages with apparent athletes, listed teams and players he supplied "performance chips," declared that he believes God wants him to cure amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and got into verbal squabbles with the media.
The arrival of Mitch Ross, co-owner of Sports with Alternatives to Steroids, on Friday in New Orleans was another twist in the pregame coverage of Super Bowl XLVII.
"[Manti Te'o] got 'catfished' like me by Sports Illustrated," Ross said. "I came here to say that Sports Illustrated 'catfished' me and lied a lot in the magazine article."
SI reported Ross prescribed a program that included using dear-antler spray to expedite Lewis' recovery from a torn triceps. The spray contains IGF-1, a hormone on the NFL's banned list. Ross said that he was "duped" by the magazine and that his comments were "misconstrued."
Ross spent a lot of time talking about performance chips, which his company says help improve energy. They look like small Band-Aids that stick to the skin and, through a disc inside, "bind sound vibrations for the purpose of influencing the human vitality field," according to the company's website.
He claimed he has sent hundreds of the chips to the Baltimore Ravens and New England Patriots, as well as to future Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre and New York Giants and former Illinois punter Steve Weatherford. Weatherford later told the New York Daily News that he has never met Ross.
Ross also said he has dealt with some former Bears.
"I did some work with Tommie Harris," he said. "Roy Williams hooked me up with him in [2008]."
But the performance chips, which Ross said don't inject chemicals into the body, are not banned or illegal.
"The only product that I have that is in concern of Mr. Lewis is the antler spray," Ross said.
Ross, who claimed he received death threats from Ravens fans, said Lewis never asked for the spray. But Ross said he talked to Lewis months ago and sent him a text more recently that said "God Bless."
"I'm here not because of Ray Lewis," Ross said. "I'm here to educate of why they originally came to interview me. I feel horrible with what happened [with Lewis]."
"I feel terrible for him. He's getting screwed because of this absolutely. This is wrong that this has happened."

American companies use a special food-safe wax; imports are covered with a water-soluble shellac. In either case, scrub the item with a scouring pad, using soap and the hottest tap water you can stand.
