- Buenos Aires is the favorite city in America when it comes to enjoy the most popular and passionate sport in the planet: football. Every year millions of tourists from all the corners of the world arrive to Argentina´s capital to see the matches in the historic stadiums in Buenos Aires, visit museums of the clubs, be present in trainings, meet players who they have as idols, etc.
The city is the headquarter of the first Association of collectors of football shirts, entity that promotes collecting and fights piracy, besides doing charity and social events. www.aaccf.com.ar
If you are fan of football, you should know the main stadiums where Argentines live their passion in each match.
Boca Juniors
Brandsen 805, Capital Federal.
The "Bombonera" was opened on May 25, 1940. On Sunday, June 2, 1940was the first official match: Boca Juniors against Newells Old Boys of Rosario and won 2 to 0, goal from Alarcón and Gandulla. In 1949, the building started and ended in 1953 after consecutive inaugurations of works such as the termination of the third BANDEJA and the artificial illumination of the stadium. In 1986, it was decided that the Bombonera would be named "Dr Camilo Cichero", in honor to its president, during his term of office the fundamental stone for the building of the stadium was placed.
Since then the "Bombonera" did not suffer modifications until 1996, when under the presidency of Mauricio Macri the stadium was inaugurated again. Therefore, the old boxes facing the Del Valle Iberlucea street where demolished, replacing them by a small stand. New boxes where built over this stand, of metallic structure and two huge handmade walls by the plastic artist Perez Celis were inaugurated. They unify the VIP area of the old Bombonera with the new boxes. Besides decorating the walls are 15 works made by the artist Romulo Macció.
In 2002 the name was changed to "Alberto J. Armando"-current name-.
The stadium has parking space, bar, café and concessionaire, an area (Stall L) created for disabled people in wheel chairs and their respective companions. Enter by elevator.
The Atheltic Club Boca Juniros is recognized for its fans called "the 12" as they were one more player.
Libertadores de América Stadium, Avellaneda.
The Independiente Stadium was the first one to be built with cement in all Latin America and was opened in 1928. The main characters of the football history played there, such as Diego Maradona, Pelé, Alfredo Distéfano and Johann Cruyff, among others.
In 2006 it was closed for a complete remodeling.
Already in its final building stage, which will be the new house of this Red team and will be opening the next year. The stadium will have space for 40.000 seated spectators and it will be seen in February 8, 2009.
Independiente is the club that more "Copa Libertadores de America" has won: he won it in 7 opportunities.
For more information: http://www.independiente.com
Racing Club de Avellaneda
Juan Domingo Perón Stadium.
Its stadium is the second in capacity in Argentina, located in Mozart and Corbatta streets. The colors that identify the club are light blue and white, In the mateur era it won seven consecutive championships, nicknamed as "The Academy", and it is still call this way.
In the professional era it was the first Argentine tri-champion and the first champion of the America´s champions.
Racing is one of the five great of the Argentine football and its historic rival is the Athletic Club Independiente, with which it fights for the Avellaneda Classic, one of the most important sport event in the world.
River Plate
Monumental Stadium.
Place where the World Cup of the 78´ took place and Argentina won, and where the most important matches of the national team are played.
In October 31, 1934 the selling of the territories was signed (83.950 square meters, 35.000 of them were ceded to the Municipality where the new stadium was built in Ñunez. The initial cost of the construction reached a sum of 4.479.545,80, though it was reduced to 3 million pesos when the commission decided not to build the north stand. A characteristic feature of the building was that they opted for a direct founding, six or eight meters deep, with open pit excavation to allow the stability of the ground and a pump bildge for water that bursted. The construction of the three stands was held in two years. It had 50 kilometers of bleachers, 26.000 square meters of concrete and a frame of almost 3000 tons of steel. Few years later, in the middle of the Second World War, steel would have cost more than what building all the stadium costed. It has space for 65.645 spectators, with 25.568 seats.
The opening game of the Monumental Stadium "Antonio Vespucio Liberti", in May 25, 1938, was between River Plate and Peñarol (Montevideo, Uruguay). River won 3 to 1.
San Lorenzo
New Gasometer, Av. Perito Moreno and Varela.
The Athletic Club San Lorenzo de Almagro is one of the five great football teams in Argentina. It was founded in the neighborhood of Almagro in Buenos Aires City, April 1, 1908, by initiative of a group of young people with the help of the salesian priest R.P Lorenzo Massa.
It was the first Argentine institution that in the professional era an unbeaten champion (1968, Metropolitan Championship) and in 1972 national champion for the second time (Metropolitan and National, again unbeaten). It has the record of Argentine football with 13 consecutive triumphs, achieved between "Clausura"(closing season) and "Apertura"(opening season) of 2001.
The institution has at present a Sport City of 27 hectares in the heart of Buenos Aires, there in December 16, 1993 "The New Gasometer" was opened, the stadium gave back the home that the team did not have since the closure of the old "Gasometer" in La Plata Avenue in 1979, true cathedral of the Argentine football.
Velez Sarfield
Vélez Sarsfield. José Amalfitani Stadium, Av. Juan B. Justo 9200, Versailles.
January 1, 1910, in the house of Nicolás Marin Moreno, was formalized the foundation of the Atheltic Club Argentinos de Velez Sarsfield. The first president named was Luis Barredo and two teams were integrated: one of third and other of fourth division. The uniform was the traditional white t-shirts, that were within everyone reach and matches were played in the field of Ensenada and Provincias Unidas. Two years later they made a change in the official uniform: royal blue t-shirts and white shorts.
Vélez was champion for the first time in December 29, 1968. The team won 10 matches, 39 goals and achieved the heaviest defeat of the season when they won 11 to 0 against Huracan from Bahia Blanca. The World Cup of 1978, it had as second headquarter the Liniers stadium, which was remodeled according to the rules from the FIFA. New boxes were built and the capacity of the "New Fort" was of 50.000.

The goal of radiation is to kill cancer cells by directing strong X-rays or other radiation at the site of the tumor. The radiation damages the cancer cells and stops them from growing and dividing. Radiation therapy is a local therapy, meaning that it affects the cancer cells only in the treated area. It is used most often if you are unable to have another treatment because of another medical condition, such as bleeding problems, or if the cancer is in an area that would be hard to remove with surgery.
If you have radiation therapy, you will meet with a radiation oncologist. This doctor will estimate the size of your cancer. For example, the radiation oncologist may find that a growth such as a basal cell tumor may be larger under the surface of the skin than it appears to be on the surface. The radiation oncologist will then create a plan that details what kind of radiation therapy you will have and how long the therapy will last.
Radiation therapy affects normal cells as well as cancer cells. Side effects of radiation depend on what part of the body is treated. You might have dry, red skin, or a rash. This irritation will go away after treatment is done. Your doctor can recommend ways to relieve these side effects.

Roberto Osuna Game Report – 4/7/2013 at Lake County Captains
I want to thank Craig Deas and the Lake County Captains for granting me access.
I didn't expect to go to any minor league games during the first weekend. As Sunday approached the weather proved more favorable than expected, and Roberto Osuna was listed as the probable in Lake County that Sunday. How could I pass up that opportunity?
He may only be 18 years old, but Roberto Osuna has a well developed, physical build uncommon for his age. Wearing the number twenty-four, I couldn't help but see some Ricky Romero-esque characteristics. Not overly tall (for a professional pitcher) at 6'2″, his strength is well proportioned with a thick lower half and a well developed upper body. He looks to have trimmed down a bit since Conor saw him last year to the point where there is little visible softness in his upper half. He is physically mature and is unlikely to see any additional growth.
Osuna utilizes a fairly simple delivery with a moderately high leg kick; he repeats the motion well and shows good body control for his age. The tempo is steady — perhaps a touch quicker than average (I know, I can hear Kevin Scobee yelling already, "not quick enough!") — and maintained fairly consistently from pitch to pitch. There are times when he will pause over the mound, but the majority of the time Osuna maintains his forward momentum towards the plate. The arm action is loose and fast from a consistent, true three-quarter, slot. The delivery is sound but not without its flaws: the effort level can get ratcheted up at times with more significant arm recoil; the wrist is hooked and he flashes the ball to the hitter during his delivery; and there is visible scap loading which may increase his risk of developing an elbow injury further down the road (a risk factor but certainly not an inevitability as every arm is unique and handles stress differently).
4-Seam Fastball:
You probably don't need me to tell you that the fastball is the pitch for Roberto Osuna… but it is. An explosive offering that comes out of his hand easily, the four-seam variety sat in the 94-96 MPH range — touched 97 — and held steadily throughout the afternoon. Osuna has some slight cross fire in his delivery and that, along with his arm slot, resulted in an angled ball path towards the plate. In addition to that path, the four-seam shows a touch of late cutting action. It's a lively pitch that can generate swings and misses within the zone. Lake County hitters were overpowered by the pitch, defensively fouling it off or weakly grounding out when they did happen to make contact; it's hard to envision any Midwest League team faring better. With the amount of command he displayed, this is a major league ready offering.
Velocity High: 97 MPH
Velocity Low: 91 MPH
Velocity Avg: 94.8 MPH
2-Seam Fastball:
The two-seam fastball may be used a bit more judiciously than the four-seam, but you cannot say that it takes a backseat to its sibling. It is only a tick slower in terms of raw velocity (92-94), yet features more horizontal and vertical movement. The late tailing action and sink gives the pitch riding life in on right handed batters and can freeze hitters as it back doors in on his glove side corner of the plate. It too can generate swings and misses.
Velocity High: 95 MPH
Velocity Low: 90 MPH
Velocity Avg: 93.3 MPH
Breaking Ball:
The one area where Osuna needs most work is refining his breaking ball. With solid spin and somewhat late 10-4 break that dove into the dirt, it showed promise during his bullpen session but was simply not a factor in game. The couple of times Osuna threw the pitch it broke early and steadily, lacked shape, and tended to be pulled to his glove side. At 79 miles-per-hour, it's in that grey, slurvy area between a true curve ball and slider. There were enough positives pre-game to lead me to believe that this will turn into an average pitch in time.
Velocity High: 79 MPH
Velocity Low: 79 MPH
Velocity Avg: 79 MPH
With about a 14 miles-per-hour differential and mirroring the two-seam fastball movement, Osuna's change-up showed pretty well throughout the game. The majority of the time he maintains good arm speed — there were a few instances where he guided it a bit — and produces consistent fading and sinking action. In a heavy fastball repertoire it was the go-to, but still sparingly utilized, off-speed pitch. Hitters were ahead of the change and were wont to chase or wave at it, producing swinging strikes out of the zone or weak ground ball contact.
Velocity High: 80 MPH
Velocity Low: 78 MPH
Velocity Avg: 79.2 MPH
Osuna repeats his delivery fairly well and fills the zone with fastballs; he shows the ability to throw his change up for strikes as well (though they often fade and sink out of the zone as chase pitches). The slider was utilized too rarely to make a judgment, but it would surprise me if he cannot throw that for strikes too. He was frequently ahead of hitters and only a handful of times did he miss well out of the zone. Those instances were usually the result of releasing the ball a bit too early or a bit too late — the fastball miss tended to be up out of the zone and the change tended to be in the dirt. Through two games, he has a sterling 14/1 K/BB in 9.2 innings.
Command is one of the last things that the prototypical young power pitcher develops, so it took me by surprise how crisp Roberto Osuna was throughout the game. As mentioned, he pitched heavily off of his two fastballs; they were moved in and out at will to both right handed and left handed batters. He generally kept them low in the zone and hit the quadrant where the catcher set the target. The times that the fastball did drift towards the heart of the plate or sail up in the zone, the quality of his fastball bailed him out, typically resulting in empty swings from the hitter. The change-up, meanwhile, was thrown to the intended vicinity but often faded away from the target; as he gains more feel for the pitch, his ability to locate it should improve.
After being somewhat disappointed with Luis Heredia a year ago, I tempered my expectations for Roberto Osuna. After all, it was his first start of the 2013 season, and he only turned 18 years old in February. What I saw was a significantly more advanced pitcher than I anticipated; he commanded his pair of explosive fastballs and cruised through five innings of work. Not only did the stuff and pitchability stand out, but there was athleticism in his physically mature frame. The secondaries still need more refinement, but the fastball alone should carry him through the lower levels (and perhaps the upper levels if his command is consistently this sharp) of the minors without much trouble. I see a future number two starter.

This is one of the weekend's saddest stories.
Investigators are trying to determine what caused a horrific fire inside a limousine late Saturday night on the San Mateo Bridge over San Francisco Bay. A new bride and four of her friends — all women — died as they tried to escape. Four other women, who had also been celebrating Neriza Fojas' recent marriage, managed to escape. So did the driver.
San Mateo County firefighters and California Highway Patrol officers investigate the scene of a limousine fire in which five women died Saturday.
Jane Tyska/Oakland Tribune /MCT /Landov
As The San Francisco Chronicle says:
"They were heading out on what was supposed to be one of the happiest nights of Neriza Fojas' life, a party to cap off the bridal shower she'd been celebrating with eight of her nurse friends. Then the women's stretch limousine headed west over the San Mateo Bridge — and horror erupted.
"Just after 10 p.m. Saturday, flames burst out in the back of the 1999 Lincoln Town Car. The driver pulled over, and he and four of the women managed to escape. But the other five passengers, including Fojas, remained trapped."
The fire grew quickly, and it appears the women didn't think they could get out through the rear door. Instead, they tried to escape through the partition between the passenger area and the driver's seat. Four were able to make it, the driver says. The five victims were "all huddled near the partition, apparently unable to squeeze through," according to The Associated Press.
The CBS Local website in San Francisco has video reports, which include some cellphone footage of the fire. Warning: It is intense.
The Oakland Tribune says that Fojas, who was from Fresno, "had already married her husband, but the couple planned a ceremony and reception for family on June 19" in the Philippines. She was 31.
When the blaze broke out, the women had just finished a night on the town and were heading to a hotel where Fojas' husband was waiting, the AP adds.

Company ressurects manned, James Bond-style spy helicopters
The gyrocopter, or autogyro, hasn't really gotten much love since World War II. Several nations pressed the aircraft into naval recon as it was towable by ships and subs while flying. Now, a company called Gyrojet wants to bring the gyrocopter back.
At first glance, autogyros don't seem all that useful. They can't hover in midair like a helicopter or even take off vertically. What they have going for them, however, is being able to stay airborne even at low speeds — which is great for urban recon — and the fact that an autogyro's chassis vibrates less thanks to its unpowered motor. That means that surveillance equipment and the like will be steadier and clear.
Still, one has to wonder if the gyrocopter hasn't lived out its usefulness in a world where unmanned drones are growing in leaps and bounds. In the past, gyrocopters used to be a lot less noticeable than a helicopter, and cheaper to deploy to boot. Then again, since it's a manned vehicle, a gyrocopter could deploy personnel, which is something that a drone can't do yet, and deploy them in areas troublesome for helicopters, such as sandy environments.

AirTalk for March 27, 2013
Report finds state Department of Parks and Recreation mismanaging state parks
Rebecca Hill/KPCC
Entrance gate to the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation area, which is the largest urban national park in the United States.
"The old model is obsolete." So finds the Little Hoover Commission report on California's State Park lands. 1.5 million acres of land are designated as state park land, and the Little Hoover report says those state parks are in sorry shape, victims of incompetent management from the Department of Parks and Recreation.
Compounding the issue are economic factors: Tight budgets mean park facilities can't be upgraded at a time when visitor numbers are falling, further dampening revenue generated by the parks.
What should California do in response to this report? What are the best options for state parks? What other agencies, entities, and grassroots groups could do a better job? What could happen to 1.5 million acres of parkland if poor choices are made at this apparently critical time?
Stuart Drown, Executive Director of the Little Hoover Commission
Craig Middleton, Executive Director of the Presidio Trust, a self-proclaimed "new" model of park management. He was interviewed as part of the Little Hoover report
Carolyn Schoff, President of the California League of Parks Association and President of the Friends of Pio Pico State Park

While in Morocco, I worked as an Advocacy Specialist with Adros, a project that seeks to eliminate child labor in Morocco through education.
I hold a B.A. from Oberlin College where I studied Politics with a concentration in International Studies focusing on the Middle East and North Africa.
I am currently in the process of starting a fair-trade rug importing business from Morocco. I trade directly with the women artisans and reinvest a portion of all my proceeds back into local education initiatives.

text: 4 Before you slate this game and rate it badly....carter91 | 21/09/2009 | See all carter91's reviews (17)The handling on this game was botched by EA before release date, therefore the handling is not the standard that it was supposed to be. Therefore the settings must be altered in order to compensate for this in the options menu then gameplay and settings. These are the settings that i use:Steering deadzone 30%Acceleration/brake deadzone 2%Steering sensitivity 0% (yes this does work but can be altered to your taste)Acceleration/brake sensitivity 45%Speed steering sensitivity 100%.I know this shouldnt have to be done on a retail game but it does in this case so minus one star for me. Also, no matter how much tweaking you do on this; the drifting in this game is still appaling and broken in every aspect. However, these little bugs out of the way, the rest of the game is brilliant. The graphics are brilliant and the cars look fantastic as do the tracks and the environment. As expected from a NFS title, theres plenty of custominsation to be done on the cars. The game overall is very solid with great sound from the cars and plenty of tracks to race round. Hopefully EA will fix the controls and the drifting races with a patch soon, when this is done then the game will recieve 5 stars from me.

I am extremely proud and excited for my fourth, and final, semester as a member of the Terry J. Lundgren's (TJL) Center for Retailing Student Advisory Board. I am a senior in the Retailing and Consumer Sciences (RCSC) major, with a Business Administration minor. I was raised in Tucson, Arizona and growing up here helped me appreciate the University of Arizona and its offerings so greatly I could not imagine going to another school.
As an undecided college freshman, I went to a Meet Your Major Fair and spoke with ambassadors of the TJL Center for Retailing Student Advisory Board. Their passion for the major and industry inspired me to go to an information session about the RCSC major. Learning about the course work and multiple opportunities available influenced me to change my major, a decision I am extremely happy about. I have never forgotten that meeting at the Meet Your Major Fair and it has inspired me to become a Student Advisory Board Ambassador. It's my mission to encourage other students to contemplate RCSC as their potential major. As an ambassador I look forward to helping current retailing students find internships and career paths by connecting them to the TJL Center's Corporate Advisory Board partners.
This past summer I interned for Macy's in their Store Management internship program in Chandler, AZ. It was an amazing experience and I learned so much. I am proud to announce that I will be continuing my management career in Phoenix, AZ with Macy's after I graduate in May 2014.
Currently I work at the University of Arizona BookStores as a sales associate and the Greek life merchandise buyer. My time at the Bookstore continues to be a valuable retail experience and has introduced me to many facets of the industry. I look forward to using this experience and my coursework as I work towards my career goals of retail management.
I am eager and enthusiastic about working with my partners, Macy's, Altria, and the University of Arizona Bookstores and providing them with opportunities for successful student involvement and recruitment on campus.

More on Disney Baby
Create magical moments with these inspired ideas and feel-good products.
The Issue with Snacking in the Car and a Smart Solution
I cleaned out our vehicle last week before a last-minute inspection from our dealership (our lease is up) and discovered that my children need a snack solution. Long road trips and frequent travels mean lots of snacking, especially from my growing toddler. The problem is, he (and his sisters) have a bad habit of spilling just about everything. This means plenty of crumbs EVERYWHERE. Baggies work for the older kids, but not so much for my son, as he tends to fling those bags (and their contents) anywhere and everywhere.
The First Years have come out with a really cool product that looks as though it may solve my snack mess woes. This container fits in most cup holders and is ideal for accidental tosses and tumbles. If your child drops the container, no more than three pieces of cereal or dry snack will fall out. This is thanks to the membrane that lines the top. How handy is that? It says the bowl is recommended for babies 9 months and up, but I'm not ashamed to say that I'm looking into purchasing one for each of my girls. The less mess for me to clean up, the better!
CARS Snack Container
This would definitely be my son's pick as he's a big fan of CARS!
Disney Princess
Pink, pink and more pink! Can't go wrong with Disney Princess! My girls would need matching, this I know for sure.
Minnie Mouse
Bright, fun and cheerful, just like Minnie herself! I just love the color combo on this container!
Monsters, Inc.
Last, but certainly not least, is the Monsters, Inc. container. These guys prove that not all monsters are scary!

McKinney: Quick Hitter
Make sure to grab your copy of Thursday's High Point Enterprise early.
Don't let the kids use it for second base or the neighbors set it up for BB gun target practice.
Thursday's HPE features a pair of extra-special, five-star, can't-miss items.
First, our high school football preview section will be included with the print edition. This colorful product offers stories, photos, schedules and much more.
Our Michael Lindsay took the point on this project, while top-flight graphic designer Leslie Long brought her fantastic touch to the layout.
Add in a few stories from Greer Smith and Patrick Budd as well as photos from Sonny Hedgecock, Don Davis Jr. and Michael and you've got something to see.
Don't miss it!
Second, my old buddy San Quentin Quayle sent word by Pony Express that he'll be back for another season of peerless prep prognosticating.
Check out his picks for week one on Thursday, too.
I'm definitely feeling the excitement!

Last August, I had the chance to spend time with Tony Carbajo, co-founder of Title Boxing. From admiring the sport as a child to becoming a Golden Gloves champion in his younger years, Tony's head has always been in the ring. His story is a fascinating one, and is a testament to the importance of passion when it comes to building a business.
Boxing since he was just eight years old, Tony explains how he parlayed his interest into a stint at Kansas State University and then on to building Title Boxing, a business that is today the world's largest distributor and manufacturer of boxing equipment.
In this interview, you'll learn how Tony built his business and how he has moved from boxer to supplier, to product development. He also discusses how he's adapted his product line to meet the sport's changing demographics, which now include women.
Finally, hear why Tony and his partner choose to keep this business in the Kansas City area—Lenexa, Kan., to be specific. While born and raised in the area, the choice to keep his thriving company in the heart of America is all about the practicality of being centrally located in the U.S.

Rosie's Place
6 comments:
I am SO glad you finally made it here! I live a couple of blocks away and Rosie's is my go-to place. The roasted turkey sandwich is my favorite, esp the basil mayo. For the longest time I didn't think I liked basil and now I have been obsessed with trying to recreate that mayo to have at home.ReplyDelete
Next time, you will definitely have to try their signature gooey butter cake. It's pretty amazing.
Thanks for the post. I'm happy to see this place getting some attention finally. I grew up dining in Albuquerque and Rosie's Place has an item on the menu that only my mother made for me! Thanks again.ReplyDelete
- Karen HarveyDecember 17, 2012 at 3:25 PM
I second the gooey butter cake. To die for! I go to Rosie's a lot, and the best thing I've had is the caprese eggs benedict. Everything there is delicious.ReplyDelete
We live in Noblesville and love to ride our bikes to Rosie's in the summer and sit outside. I personally prefer their lunch over the breakfast but I've yet to be disappointed in either. I'm glad you liked it.ReplyDelete
I also like Rosie's a lot, it's classic local cooking, and the baked goods are excellent. The new Conner Station at the corner of 10th Street and Conner (one of the corners on the Square) is getting better since it opened a few months ago ... and they're in the process of re-naming it to the Copper Still, with menu changes under the guidance of Brad Gates. A recent trip there revealed some amazing pulled-pork nachos but pretty gross fried pickle chips.ReplyDelete
- Indy Cycle ChicDecember 21, 2012 at 3:29 PM
My husband loves going to Conner Station/Copper Still since they have a great selection of local beers. The food has been very hit and miss lately for me with my favorites disappearing after each visit. I don't eat red meat and the menu doesn't seem to have many other options. I'm hoping Brad Gates gets it settled down with some good options soon. I've head several people say the pickles are gross too.ReplyDelete
I am limiting publication of "anonymous" comments. Please give me some sort of name when you post your comment.

Picket the greedy landlords!
Yes, these are "stupid" suggestions because they don't address the fundamental problem. The basic problem is that the Bay Area is a desirable place to live for employment, climate and cultural reasons but the the supply of housing is limited by a combination of geography and zoning. The result is that high paid employees bid up housing prices and drive out lower income people. The solution is to change the zoning constraints and build more housing. This would be good for everyone - both high earning techies and lower income people would benefit from more plentiful housing, which would keep prices down. Win-Win.
One thing that could be done is to make the tax structure such that landlords don't strike it rich simply by being there before the boom. I found the possible solution in the link below interesting:http://qz.com/169767/the-century-old-solution-to-end-san-franciscos-class-warfare/
The question that immediately comes to my mind, having read the suggestions, is, what incentives do "techies" have to start even with these simple changes? I'm sure there are those in the tech industry who'd like to show more civic responsibility, but, as long as the city is bending over backwards to accomodate the tech industry, they're going to be up against those who say, "I can afford to be hated."
Matt Yglesias says it well: "San Francisco Is Great—They Should Make More of It". San Francisco is about half as dense as Brooklyn and only a quarter as dense as Manhattan. There is a lot of room to accommodate more people in San Francisco by building up. And San Francisco is only a small corner of the Bay Area so there is a lot of potential for denser housing, which would bring down everyone's rent.
Deeper problems are at the core of why SF is so expensive. Development is costly and forbidden in many places and in many ways. The people who own property in SF and make income or derive their wealth from the scarcity of that property have no interest in seeing new housing. This entrenched economic group along with the frequently overlapping set of people who want to keep SF just the way it is to satisfy their aesthetic sensibilities, have found natural allies in the poor who they normally victimize. Google, as a wealthy company, is an easy target compared to the longstanding politically derived unfairness of San Francisco's housing market. The City council, zoning regulations, home owner associations and rent control have more to do with the high price of housing then the combined workforces of every tech firm in the area.
Why exactly should Google employees support more affordable housing in SF? The world is full of affordable housing. Affordable housing is what you have when a lot of poor people live in a certain area. You can buy a house for a dollar in some areas (Detroit, Gary, etc). Areas that are expensive are that way because rich people want to live in them. It's nice to be around other rich people and it's nice to live with an absence of certain kinds of poor people, especially unemployed poor. I think Google employees should be working against affordable housing. And who wants homeless people around? They are dangerous and unpleasant. They are "why we can't have nice things". There were (and still are) communities in the US where people don't lock their doors, help each other, etc. That kind of society can't exist if the wrong kind of people show up.
Why the fuck should the people on a Google bus feel obligated to volunteer their time? Why the fuck should they then need to demonstrate this and somehow earn the right to ride a bus to work.
I should probably use a Philip J. Fry gif for this but. . .
not sure if humorous reference to fake google bus protestor, or genuine trolling
It's not trolling. Rich people don't aspire to live in an unpleasant area, such as a place with crime, bad schools, drug markets, and blight. Affordable housing, for the wrong kind of poor people, brings in all those things. Homeless are especially the wrong kind of poor people to be around, because they have lots of problems with crime, drugs, and mental illness. Why should Google employees want to have those problems near them? I work hard because I want to live in a community that's good. I sure don't want to support homeless people or unemployed poor near me. Why should I? (I am not a Google employee and don't live in SF).
Ironically, in my area, we had people try to keep other people out on the basis that they would drive property values down. It's all right though, as long as Google folks agree to take a pledge of volunteering, we'll let a few in. But I don't want them dating my kids.
Part of that has to do with the fact that Brooklyn and Manhattan aren't built on any major earthquake faults, so they were able to go vertical before it became feasible in San Francisco.
Maybe all those folks driving up the prices should GTFO of town.
Or maybe the rest of the townfolks could get their legal pitchforks and make them indentured servants to the community?
Right, why exactly would I want to have unemployed poor people, or homeless people, moving into my zip code? They will soak up my tax money, drive my property values down, make the schools worse, and commit crimes. Someone explain to me why anyone who is a Google employee would want to enrich his community with unemployed poor people and homeless? Just to feel less guilty? Any other reasons?
Well, alright, let's run a couple of those points down then
Increasing affordable housing would tend to decrease homelessness. In that homelessness is defined as not having a home
the people who are currently most upset about gentrification are the ones who used to be able to afford rent in SF, and who now cannot because the rapid influx of people with google level salaries are driving up rent by competing for those same apartments. There's a difference between affordable housing & a homeless shelter, although I would argue that both of them are socially beneficial. But the main focus right now seems to be the displacement of people who used to be able to make rent just fine
the phrase "the wrong kind of poor people" really feels like an intentional incitement to class warfare.
There was already a community in SF. If you want to live there, it behooves you to become a part of the community. If you want a gated burbclave where the poors aren't allowed in, then why are you moving into SF?
California used to this, but the infamous Prop 13 put the kibosh on this form of taxation in the late 70s.
You don't need to pass any new laws to implement your idea; all you need to do repeal Prop 13.
good luck with that....
Gisbon's Bridge City to become reality in 3.. 2..
Based on my experiences of living in the bay area for a couple years, any excuse to leave it should be taken as a higher power dropping hints on how to improve your life.
SF is a neat city with some great character, but it's the sort of "neat" that is best experienced as a tourist.
Plus their football team sucks.

Citro�n starts selling Lattes
No, they haven't started selling overpriced coffee. I'm talking about the new Citroën C3 Pluriel Latte, a special edition of the company's droptop minicar.
It's differentiated from other Pluriels by its creamy Ivory paint color and dark grey and cream-colored two-tone leather interior. The rub strips and roof arches are finished in an aliminum look instead of the standard black.
Like all C3 Pluriels, the Latte's power sliding soft top adds a great deal of versatility. When fully closed, the car is a hatchback. It can also be opened three-quarters of the way to make a panoramic roof or rolled back completely to create a full open-top experience. Removing the side rails turns it into a traditional-looking convertible, as seen above. The C3 minisite has nice flash demos of the roof mechanism in action. In addition to all the regular standard equipment, the Pluriel Latte also gets A/C and electric folding mirrors as part of its special edition trim package.
The Latte is powered by a gasoline-sipping 1.4L four-cylinder that generates 75 horsepower and gets 41.5 miles per gallon in combined usage. You can read up on the rest of the car's tech specs at the Citroën UK site.
With its rich color combination, the Latte makes a nice addition to the C3 Pluriel lineup. Above above all else, it's a neat little car. Pricing is set at £12,745.
(Additional info after the jump)
[Source: Citroën]
Citroën has served up a hot and tasty new special edition for the summer in the shape of the C3 Pluriel Latte, which introduces a classy new body colour and leather upholstery as well as air conditioning as standard.
Stimulating to the eye, the C3 Pluriel Latte comes in a fresh new 'Ivory' body colour that is nicely complemented by a rich blend of stylish 'aluminium' roof arches, bumper inserts, side rubbing strips and door handles.
On the inside of this range-topping model, Citroën has introduced an attractive new leather finish – dark grey on the lower section of the seats and cream, to match the exterior, on the upper parts. To complete the reinvigorating look, the steering wheel and door grab handles are also finished off in leather.
Air conditioning and electric folding door mirrors are indicative of the C3 Pluriel Latte's top-end specification list, which also includes variable power steering, remote central locking with deadlocks, four electric windows and a CD player. An impressive 4-star Euro NCAP rating ensures that the C3 Pluriel Latte not only looks great, but is one of the safest small cars around too.
A supermini during the winter months and a convertible during the summer, the C3 Pluriel offers customers real flexibility. With the roof up, the C3 Pluriel offers space for four occupants and a generous sized boot, yet the opportunity to choose from a variety of set-ups, including the option of removing the roof arches, ensures that passengers can enjoy real wind-in-the-hair-motoring come the warmer weather.
The Citroën C3 Pluriel Latte special edition is equipped with a 75hp 1.4i petrol engine that returns in excess of 52mpg in out-of-town motoring and is priced at £12,745, including the current £1,500 cashback.

Living in a Computer Simulation
Oct 15, 2012
General Nonsense
Physicists in Germany think they might have a way to find out if our reality is just a computer simulation. At least I think that's what this
in MIT's Technology Review says. It's a bit hard to penetrate.
In my view, the odds are in favor of our perceived reality being a computer simulation. Allow me to make my lawyerly argument in defense of that view. Sure, I've blogged on this topic before, but not so convincingly.
When I was a kid, I dreamed of one day growing up to be a world-famous cartoonist. When your actual life conforms to your childhood fantasy, it makes you question the basic nature of reality. Did I really beat million-to-one odds, or is something else going on?
One explanation for my experience is that I'm extraordinarily lucky. For this discussion I'm defining luck to include my genetic composition, upbringing, and environment, since I didn't have much control over any of that. Let's say the odds of getting to this point of my career by luck alone is somewhere in the range of one-in-a-million.
A second explanation for my perceived life is that I'm insane and I have delusions that I'm a cartoonist. An estimated 1.1% of the population is schizophrenic. Rounding off, let's say the odds that my life is a hallucination are a hundred to one against. And yet, so far, that's the best explanation.
A third explanation is that I live in a simulation that was designed to satisfy my ambitions. That seems plausible to me on several levels. Let's begin by assuming scientists are correct when they say there are probably lots of planets in the universe with life. Add the power of evolution plus several billion years of percolation and you have a universe peppered with intelligent beings.
If you wait long enough, almost any species will die off from one sort of natural disaster or another. Maybe a sun explodes, a rogue meteor hits, or a new virus springs up. So if it's true that the universe created lots of life on various worlds, it's probably true that many advanced species have already died off. Some of them probably saw it coming in time to project their personalities, hopes, and dreams into computer simulations that would run forever, as sort of an artificial afterlife.
I think it is likely that for every "real" and intelligent being in the universe there might be hundreds or even billions of expired civilizations that figured out how to port their essence to computer simulations before checking out.
Summarizing the three explanations for how my actual life could so closely conform to my childhood fantasies:
million-to-one against
hundred-to-one against
million-to-one in favor
It's really no contest. In my specific case it would be irrational to believe I am anything but a simulation.
One feature of our so-called reality that makes me scratch my head is the consistency of the rules of physics. One might expect a "natural" universe - one that came from an explosion - to be nothing but randomness on every dimension, including the rules of physics themselves. Any sort of consistency to our perceived reality feels like a "tell" from the simulation creators.
If you were the designer of this simulation you would need to strike a delicate balance. You want the characters to have your curiosity and intelligence but you also need to prevent them from realizing their true nature within the simulation. That means creating boundaries that don't look like boundaries. For example, you might program the simulation to have an infinite size (as if that even makes sense), but limit the maximum speed of things to the speed of light, making it impossible for the simulated people to examine the edges of their universe.
As a designer, you'd also need to make the quantum world totally freaky and endlessly puzzling. What are the tiniest particles in the universe made of? Answer: waves. What is a wave? Answer: Something that makes sense only in the realm of math. When you look for the boundaries of reality you always bump into a wall that defies common sense so aggressively that it looks intentional.
Another hint that we are simulations modeled after our programmers is that we are suspicious about the possibility. If the creators modeled us after themselves, they created simulations that could imagine someday creating their own simulations. That means we might be - wait for it - the simulations of other simulations.
Keep in mind that the perceived passage of time for people in a simulation does not have to map to any "real" time in the universe. So perhaps I am experiencing my trillionth simulated life. Perhaps each of us gets to experience every life and every time period of our alleged reality. The entire simulation would only take a few seconds in the outside world if the processor is fast enough.
If even one civilization in the real universe created a simulation that could create its own simulations, the odds of any particular "sentient" creature being real are perhaps worse than a trillion to one. That assumes the alien processors are fast and our perceived time doesn't need to match any real time in the actual universe.
Ladies and gentleman of the jury, I rest my case. And I predict you have been programmed to disagree with my conclusion.

Sounds like a creationist theory, but more specific (creationism leans toward god setting it all up, but not necessarily monitoring and !$%*!$%*!$% So I ask - you mean all the pain/suffering/war/death/disasters are part of someone's programming intent? What sort of demented wackos "programmed" this simulation anyway? 8-}

I think this thought fits under the idealism philosophy group - that reality is merely a projection of some mental construct.
But here is a thought experiment from that group. If we perceive a non-real experience as being real, and we perceive other intelligences that are separate from our self, and those other non-self intelligences report a similar perception of the experience as our own, and that experience is continuous, consistent, and ubiquitous, then what other criteria could possible distinguish the non-real experience from a real one?
I'm sure you have seen the movie Inception, which draws elements from The Tempest. Both present examples of reality and non-reality, but also explores the idea central to idealism, that it is our perception alone that defines what is real, and nothing else. So if you perceive reality in a certain way, it makes no difference as to whether that reality comes from our own consciousness, some other intelligence, or from random chance.
An all-powerful programmer is functionally no different from an all-powerful God, or all-powerful entrophy.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned the most logical argument of all. We're the AI's in a video game of a more advanced species. Considering how rapidly we're pumping out content that seems almost as real as our lives, it's likely that other people have already done this for us. It's like the Sims and whenever something truly strange or miraculous happens in our lives specifically, that's just our player interacting directly in our lives for the moment.
Could probably explain buddhist/hindu style reincarnation too. Boom! Level UP! High Karma Score! You go from !$%*!$%*! to spider!

Reality is what we can get away with. That means wether or not this is a computer simulation is irrelevant to wether or not this is reality. Unless you come up with some plan for 'escape' the world we see around us is the world we have to deal with.
And don't tell me I don't exist. My consciousness is enough proof to me of my existence wether or not Im really a computer program and I find the idea that I don't exist insulting. Yes, I know, you said it to WATYF1 not me, but you were thinking it about all of us weren't you?

I'd very much like to live in the simulation in which my childhood dreams come true. Is there a reboot button?
Does the way our minds work have an outcome influencing effect on the theoretical simulation? If one's dreams or ambitions are defined clearly enough and consistently over an extended period of time, does that encourage the simulation to create those conditions?

Apparently, you've been programmed to make dumb arguments. :^D
Do you have any idea how many people don't have ANY of their ambitions satisfied (let alone most or all of them)?? You've made the mistake of looking solely at the odds while ignoring the empirical data.
The obvious answer is #1: Luck. Do I arrive at that answer via the odds? No. I arrive at it by a cursory observation of the populace at large, most of which isn't nearly as fortunate as you and most of which doesn't end up fulfilling their childhood dreams.
You're a lucky bastard, Scott. Just accept it. You don't need to come up with ridiculous hypotheses about the universe just to satisfy your winner's guilt. :^D
Btw... this statement: "One might expect a "natural" universe - one that came from an explosion - to be nothing but randomness on every dimension" makes me think you're trying reeeealy hard to accept that this universe was designed without accepting the most common explanation for that perceived design. :Op Every one of your "curiosities" can be accounted for by theories that have been around since the beginning of recorded history.

You left out what I think is the most likely explanation - that your memory of childhood is unreliable.
You are a successful cartoonist. You say that you always wanted to be a successful cartoonist. You probably also wanted to be an astronaut, a fireman, a famous singer, a writer, and a prince. If you were an astronaut, you would likely look back and say - I always wanted to be an astronaut, what a remarkable coincidence that I became one.
Your present condition (being a successful cartoonist), paired with your contentment, means that your memory will focus on only memories of wanting to be a cartoonist, and will ignore memories of wanting to be an astronaut.
So there's nothing overly remarkable about your reality conforming to your perceived desires, only confirmation bias playing with your perception of your desires and your experiences so that they are congruent.
[I considered selective memory and confirmation bias. But I have in my possession my application to Famous Artist School for Young People that I completed when I was eleven years old. On the application I described my goal of becoming a cartoonist. I'm almost positive I never applied to astronaut school, but you are technically correct that I could have forgotten. -- Scott]

Enterprise-Level Health-Care Applications
Today most health-care companies are struggling to find ways to improve patient care, reduce costs and provide more and better service. They increasingly see technology as a solution to these requirements. Our company is no different. We have approximately 1,300 employees in 13 states and 40 offices. Our existing patient care system and financial accounting system were developed over ten years ago and were not designed to handle the requirements of a large, distributed organization.
Many members of our executive team have backgrounds in high-volume claims processing, where millions of claims have to be processed daily on high availability systems. Our CEO and the executive team defined the following requirements for our new IT applications:
It must be scalable, portable, reliable and secure.
It must address the requirements of the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).
It must integrate all our applications and provide business-to-business (B2B) capability.
It must meet the "four As" of availability: accessible, anytime, anywhere and on any device.
It must be cost effective.
Scalability is a matter of survival. Many vendors have said, "hardware is so cheap, just throw more hardware at it." This is a good solution until you are responsible for a budget and getting it past a CFO. In our situation we must not sacrifice one byte of memory, one processor cycle nor one block of disk to bloated, inefficient applications and systems.
Portability and scalability are related. If our application is written on an Intel platform, but must run on a mainframe to perform as needed, that application must be portable to different operating systems running on different hardware. Our hardware selection today may change a year from now based on speed, cost, support, reliability and available talent to run the system. We can't replace our applications whenever we change our hardware.
HIPAA, passed by the US Congress and signed into law in 2000, has tremendous implications for health-care companies. These laws take effect in 2002. HIPAA's authors intended to standardize how claims are processed, how data is exchanged between companies and how patient information is accessed and stored. The applications and systems we run must conform to HIPAA requirements and must change with the regulatory environment. Health-care companies will spend two to three times the cost of Y2K on HIPAA conformance, according to industry analysts.
Industry analysts also claim that health care is one of the last industries to take significant advantage of advances in information technology. Many health-care companies' information systems run on old, sometimes very old, technology, and our systems must communicate with them. When we enroll a patient in our medical information system, we must automatically enroll that patient in our pharmacy provider's system so the patient can fill their prescriptions anywhere in the US the same day. We must also send information to our medical supply company to allow the patient to get medical supplies without excessive delay.
Our company evaluated over 50 health-care applications. None could address our needs. Some companies had just invested millions of dollars to go from DOS application to client/server, 32-bit Windows applications. Some had DOS applications and just looked at us funny when we tried to explain what we wanted. In the end we found nothing that fit our needs. Our solution was to put together a team of highly experienced developers with backgrounds in high-volume transaction processing and build a transaction backbone and the applications to run on top of it.
Our first task was to define the broad outlines of the architecture. We wanted an N-tier architecture, but beyond that we wanted one that placed no limits on possible solutions. We evaluated several transaction engines and application servers. All failed to satisfy our requirements. Commercial transaction engines were either extremely expensive to purchase, maintain and develop on or they were too inflexible or unreliable for us.
How much reliability do we require? If an e-tailer goes down .1% of the time, about nine hours per year, the worst likely outcome is the loss of some orders. However, when a nurse needs to access patient records to learn a patient's medication and dosage, downtime is a different issue. It's simply not acceptable.
Dog Health
I am currently heading the staff at VitaHound Labs. The organization is dedicated to pet nutrition, specifically canine health plans. The dog supplement industry is in its infancy and for that reason the demand for dependable brands is massive. Our team of dog nutrition experts has created a highly recognized forum on dog health allowing the interaction with many dog owners, essential to gaining the whole story on the modern dogs diet. Our products are helping to reduce the chronic disease and shortened life spans canines are experiencing.
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

Hi Joe,

Thanks very much for the answer. In my case it looks like I'm sorry

I woke you up. I tried the most recent 2009 CD as well as the 2007 CD

I built the machine with the first time. Looks like this Mac Mini has

gone down hard - bad disk at least, possibly bad memory. I'm not sure

it's worth my effort to fix it as it's so very slow.

Anyway, I appreciate the answer and wish you all the best. Thanks

for your efforts.

Mark

I heard about water therapy, which states that if I consume 1.5 liters of water every
morning after I wake up, the water will clean my bowel and the toxins found in my body. This therapy is supposedly
beneficial to patients with hypertension and diabetes. How effective is water therapy? Will it cause my body any
Dr Stanley Liew Choon Fong, Specialist in Endocrinology, Raffles Hospital
In general, an adult would need to consume approximately 2.5 litres of water daily.
However, we obtain about a litre of water from food. Therefore, this leaves only 1.5 litres to be consumed in the
form of fluid. In other words, most of us need to drink around 6 to 8 glasses of fluid a day. This amount should
be spread out during the course of the day as guided by our thirst sensation.
The concept that a large amount of water consumed in the morning can cleanse the bowel may be over
simplistic. Most of the water we drink is absorbed in the gut, and then used by the cells in our body. The kidneys
would excrete the excess water. So, very little water is left behind in the gut to "clean" the bowel. Otherwise,
we would all be having diarrhoea after drinking a large amount of water.
There is no scientific evidence that "water therapy" has any specific benefits to people with
hypertension or diabetes. In fact, healthy diet, regular exercise and keeping body weight in the healthy range are
the best lifestyle modifications for people with hypertension and diabetes.
Consuming 1.5 litre of water in one go can even be harmful as this is almost
approaching the limit which can result in water intoxication. Also, drinking an excessive amount of fluid is not
advisable for those with weak heart, which can be present in people with hypertension and diabetes. If in doubt,
they should consult their doctors.

Today's workout uses the same framework as Monday's…
I am also going to ask you to continue starting your workout by using a foam roller, lacrosse ball or similar fascia mashing device to break up muscular adhesions in your:
Start with your regular…
Circles – Starting with the ankles and moving all the way up to your neck, gently make circles with all of your joints – 10 revolutions each joint in each direction
…before moving onto the foam roller work that I outlined above.
In addition to the leg work, I want you to stuff a lacrosse ball/tennis ball/yoga ball in between your shoulder blades & spine, lay on your back letting the ball sink into the nooks & crannies. Once the ball is in there, start making circles with your arm. It will break up those tight upper back muscles you get from staring at the computer screen.
Like the guy says in the video…go looking for areas of tightess & pain
Complete the assigned reps or stop at 5 min…whichever comes first
Complete the assigned reps or stop at 5 min…whichever comes first
Complete the assigned reps or stop at 5 min…whichever comes first
Now that the sweaty stuff is over, I want you to spend at least 10 minutes doing 30 sec static stretches. In addition to your personal tight bits, I want you to stretch your pecs (chest), glutes/hips/hams, hip flexors & quads
Alright…that's it for today…tomorrow you should do either…

For more information on Mortenson and his work visit the following sites:
Below is a CBS News interview with him that you may find interesting.
