Adding your own callbacks to existing JavaScript functionsJavaScript, jQuery By Dave Ward. Posted January 11, 2012
Hey Dave, is there a way to create an event handler so when .tmpl() is done it will fire a function? I'm trying to make it global, so I was hoping I could say, when ANY template gets done, do this…
The question of how to retroactively add hooks before and/or after a pre-existing JavaScript function executes is one that comes up from time to time. Whether it's a simple method like
tmpl(), a server-generated script artifact, or a function in a third-party script, sometimes it's desirable to alter a JavaScript function without access to change the original declaration of the function.
One of the handy things about JavaScript is that you can combine its functional and dynamic aspects to make surprisingly quick work of tasks like this one. Doing so is fairly straightforward, but it involves an approach you might not consider if you're more familiar with languages that lack JavaScript's unique features.
In this post, I'll briefly cover a few examples of how to "patch" existing JavaScript functions with callbacks. We'll begin with simple examples, then address an issue that stems from applying this approach to jQuery plugins, and finish with a more elegant way to handle the problem of patching functions that accept parameters.
A simple() example
Let's start with the simplest possible example, a function that accepts no arguments and returns nothing:
function simple() { // I am a black box. }
Maybe that function is pre-defined and emitted by server-side code. Maybe it's part of a script you're referencing from a public CDN. For whatever reason, assume that this function is part of your page, but that you don't have the ability to directly change its code.
If you need to run some of your own code before and/or after any time the
simple() function is called, you can use a technique called monkey patching to achieve that without access to the original function declaration.
// Get a reference to the previously defined simple() function. var oldSimple = simple; function simple() { // Code that runs before any call to simple() here. // Make a call to the old/previous simple() function. oldSimple(); // Code that runs after any call to simple() here. }
Since functions are just like any other variable in JavaScript, it's that simple.
Without touching the original
simple() function declaration, this snippet has effectively redefined it anyway. Calls to the original function will also execute our before and after code now, unaware that anything has changed.
Parameters and external "event" handlers
If you want to apply this technique to a function that accepts parameters, you'll also need to capture and relay those parameters.
Take this more complex function, for example:
function complex(foo, bar, baz) { // An assortment of black boxes. }
You could patch in a "before" event, parameters unimpeded, like this:
var oldComplex = complex; // Capture the parameters that the original complex() // function expects. function complex(foo, bar, baz) { // Call onBeforeComplex() if it's defined when this runs, and // pass a copy of the parameters that complex() was called with. if (typeof onBeforeComplex === 'function') onBeforeComplex(foo, bar, baz); // Call the original function, parameters included. oldComplex(foo, bar, baz); }
Using a separate
onBeforeComplex() function instead of inline code isn't necessary, but I prefer that approach. Now, you can drop this code into a script include anywhere after
complex() is defined and then declare the "handler" function anywhere on the page (or not at all).
Passing foo, bar, and baz to
onBeforeComplex() is optional, of course, but it's usually helpful to know something about what sort of call triggered the event.
Applying this to jQuery plugins
Now let's apply this technique to the real-world problem of updating
tmpl(). Doing that isn't much more difficult than the previous example, but we do need to identify the method's signature first so that we can apply the patch.
Digging into the last version of jQuery.tmpl.js on GitHub, the function we'll need to override can be found beginning on line 80:
So, the function we'll need to patch is
jQuery.fn.tmpl. Given the previous examples, you might thing it would be as easy as this:
var oldTmpl = jQuery.fn.tmpl; jQuery.fn.tmpl = function(data, options, parentItem) { if (typeof onBeforeTmpl === 'function') onBeforeTmpl(data, options, parentItem); oldTmpl(data, options, parentItem); }
Unfortunately, that will break
tmpl() (in two separate ways, no less).
jQuery plugins make "this" more complicated
Applying the monkey patching approach to functions that operate on and return jQuery collection objects, such as the
tmpl() plugin that led to this post, requires extra consideration. The crux of jQuery's fluent API is that chainable jQuery methods both operate upon and return an instance of the jQuery object.
Now that we're interjecting an additional level of abstraction, we need to be sure to maintain the scope of
this down into the original jQuery plugin method and preserve the original function's return value. Otherwise, our intermediary function will break jQuery's chaining.
apply() to call the original function allows us to control its
this value:
var oldTmpl = jQuery.fn.tmpl; // Note: the parameters don't need to be named the same as in the // original. This could just as well be function(a, b, c). jQuery.fn.tmpl = function(data, options, parentItem) { if (typeof onBeforeTmpl === 'function') onBeforeTmpl.apply(this, [data, options, parentItem]); // Make a call to the old tmpl() function, maintaining the value // of "this" and its expected function arguments. var tmplResult = oldTmpl.apply(this, [data, options, parentItem]); if (typeof onAfterTmpl === 'function') onAfterTmpl.apply(this, [data, options, parentItem]); // Returning the result of tmpl() back so that it's actually // useful, but also to preserve jQuery's chaining. return tmplResult; };
By capturing the return value of the original
tmpl() function and returning that back to the original caller, chaining is preserved at that previous level. That's particularly important in this specific example because that return value is the rendered template.
Better argument handling
If you're like me, explicitly capturing and passing each individual function parameter doesn't feel great. Not only is it extra work to determine how many parameters a method accepts, but our patched version of
tmpl() would stop working correctly if the original were updated to begin accepting additional parameters.
We can improve this situation easily enough by taking advantage of JavaScript's built-in way to capture all of the parameters that were passed to a function. Aptly named
arguments, this so-called array-like object is perfect for eliminating the explicit plumbing code to pass parameters between the patched function and the original.
Even better, arguments will capture all the parameters passed into a function even if that function's declaration doesn't accept parameters at all. So, now there's no need to worry about matching the original's function signature:
var oldTmpl = jQuery.fn.tmpl; jQuery.fn.tmpl = function() { if (typeof onBeforeTmpl === 'function') onBeforeTmpl.apply(this, arguments); var tmplResult = oldTmpl.apply(this, arguments); if (typeof onAfterTmpl === 'function') onAfterTmpl.apply(this, arguments); return tmplResult; };
Throw that code on a page, anywhere after the reference to jquery.tmpl.js, and then all existing usages of
tmpl() will begin triggering the before and after "events".
We took a circuitous route to get here, but I hope you agree that it was worthwhile to build the solution up step by step. Even if you don't need to patch an event into
tmpl(), you might be surprised how often this technique comes in handy once you're keeping the possibility in mind.

I'd recommend making to significant, but hugely beneficial changes:
1) Overwrite the function in a closure
2) Use custom events to trigger the callbacks
This avoids polluting the global namespace and I think is a little cleaner.
Here's write up on the changes I'd make:
This is a very useful technique which can be applied to show/hide loading graphics during ajax requests for instance.
@Dave, I'm glad that you've taken the time to write this one up.
@Dan, closures for the win – enough sad. :)
This is a good idea about how to use the tmpl with a "before" and "after" trigger.
i really appreciate your quality stuff sharing.
Technically, this is not a true callback. While the approach allows you to add flow before and after the function, it's not a technique for waiting for all the tasks inside the overridden function to complete.
thanks for this! Didn't need exactly this but I needed the original idea of calling the "oldFunction" after inheriting and altering prototype functions. Thanks, great post!

Trey McIntyre Project serves up a folk-dance/ballet blend
Dance troupe Trey McIntyre Project looks to Boise's Basque community and folk tradition for inspiration in "Arrantza," while McIntyre's latest, "Pass, Away" is contemporary dance as pure as it comes. Running through April 13, 2013, at UW's Meany Hall.
Seattle Times arts writer
Trey McIntyre Project
8 p.m. Friday-Saturday, Meany Hall, University of Washington, Seattle; $20-$43 (206-543-4880 or www.uwworldseries.org).
Say the words "Basque dance" and most folks will come up with only the vaguest imagery.
Aren't black berets involved? And maybe brightly colored scarves?
Well, there's no need to go a-Googlin' to find out — because Trey McIntyre Project offers some beguiling answers with "Arrantza," a 2010 work inspired by Basque community in and around Boise, Idaho, where TMP is based.
"Arrantza" (the Basque word for "fishing") is a sly amalgam of folk-dance rhythms and ballet airiness. It opens strikingly, with a sort of ambulatory, shroud-covered compound creature that refuses to disclose its identity until, with a floppy collapse and a waving of the Basque flag, it yields a group of eight dancers.
What follows is propelled by both traditional Basque music and interviews with Basque Americans. The men are, indeed, in berets and red neckerchiefs; the women have ribbons threaded through their hair and laced around their shins. Typical folk costumes — but McIntyre treats his folk-dance sources, with their springy, intricate footwork, merely as a starting point.
Brett Perry, a high-kicking whirligig of a dancer, is paired first with Rachel Sherak (sprightly élan personified) and then Chanel DaSilva (a dynamo with a knack for launching herself backward through midair so Perry can catch her nonchalantly at shoulder level).
Fine as those duets are, they're topped by an all-male trio. Perry, Ryan Redmond and Travis Walker are a continually evolving three-body action sculpture — one that's very fond of syncopated rhythms. You never quite know which way their balance is going to tilt or their limbs are going to fly.
"Arrantza" concludes with a string of solos done to tambourine rhythms. Redmond, who opens and closes it, is the standout amid some fierce competition. His tricky footwork and body abandon seem to pick up on every subtle rhythmic shift the music makes.
"Pass, Away," the evening's other highlight, is supposedly in previews. But its series of five duets and one solo, set to songs of Richard Strauss, feels impeccably shaped and polished.
On the troupe's website, McIntyre says he doesn't see the duets as "focusing on a human relationship between two people working something out." Instead, he views them as examining strands of a single personality trying to sort out its "different facets ... that may be in conflict."
That may explain the intricate, paradoxical character of these duos. Walker and Ashley Werhun, the opening pair, go from nuzzling tenderness to heroic posturing in an instant. There's something simultaneously grand and cozy about them. Sherak and Benjamin Behrends, the second two, are even more complexly interlaced, making a game of balance and embrace, lodge and dislodge.
DaSilva and Perry, now veteran stars of TMP (there's been quite a bit of turnover in dancers), are at their peak, serving up an alchemy of perilous body-weight shifts and elastic catches. Perry has a stunner of a solo passage as well — frenzied yet lithe, manic yet elegant, as though following two entirely different dance dictates, one to do with control, the other to do with unharnessed energy.
A male-male duet by Behrends and Walker is more standoffish initially. But its nervous taps and hiccups of rhythm soon expand to carving sweeps of limbs that lead, at last, to a real embrace. All of "Pass, Away" has a fluid, floating rigor and a finely distilled dance purity.
McIntyre likes a brisk pace, and "Pass, Away" and "Arrantza" both leave you wanting more, in a good way. But the evening's opener, "Queen of the Goths" — a dance-trio take on Shakespeare's "Titus Andronicus" — feels thinner and flimsier. Lead dancer Elizabeth Keller's movement has a slithery, slicing authority and she's certainly an imperious presence onstage. But the piece itself feels lacking.
Two out of three, though ... that's not bad.

When evaluating possible internships, engineering and computer science students with a passion for learning would be wise to put WhitePages at the top of their lists. That is if they really want to learn, write and push code during their summer months. Those that are happy to 'fetch coffee' need not apply because, well… that just doesn't happen at WhitePages.
Branded as the 'go-to' site for online people and business search and with 120 employees, Seattle-based WhitePages hires interns to do more than just read and write code. With the support of a carefully paired mentor, the company's interns are responsible for the full software development lifecycle—designing, building, testing, and deploying code that affects more than 50 million monthly users' experience on the site. According to Robert Noble, Director of Software Engineering and head of the internship program, this is all part of the plan to give each student the opportunity to become full-fledged software developers and hopefully to do so at WhitePages after they graduate.
But first, they have to qualify.
"At WhitePages.com we invest a phenomenal amount into each intern. We have a whole sprint team that surrounds them and every team member is responsible for the intern's success." – Robert Noble
The WhitePages Intern
Obviously, candidates need to have strong programming skills and grades but just as important is the candidate's ability to demonstrate a strong passion for learning. The WhitePages team wants to know what the intern likes to learn for fun, and why. Next, WhitePages wants to be able to also learn from their interns.
This passion for learning speaks to the company's core value of continuous improvement and self-development. This is further demonstrated by the fact that as one of its perks, each employee is offered a $1500 stipend for personal development which can be used on books, conferences, and even continuing education at the local universities.
WhitePages is looking for candidates that have demonstrated some technical expertise and passion. According to Noble, it doesn't really matter what that one thing is, because "it's our philosophy that if you can demonstrate that you are really good at one thing then we are confident you can become really good at a lot of things, but if you can't be good at even one thing then you probably aren't good enough for us."
Enough said.
Perks at WhitePages
The teams within WhitePages are always looking for fun ways to continue to build upon their relationships and foster communication between the different groups. While the number one perk is the mentorship, there are also other extras like weekly catered lunches and regular social outings with happy hours, go-karting, cooking school, and ropes courses to name a few. In addition to all the social perks, full-time employees also enjoy unlimited vacation policies and full health benefits.
If you are interested in being considered for a position at WhitePages, either with the intern program or as a new college grad in their engineering department, connect with them on Readyforce today!

The holiday season kicks off at The Civic Theatre in Kalamazoo with "Nuncrackers," starting this Friday, Nov. 23.
"Nuncrackers," directed by Nicki Poer, tells the story of a church's taping of a TV special for Christmas and features both classic Christmas songs and songs written specifically for the show.
"It is so funny," said Ben Zylman, Marketing Director for the Civic Theatre. "It is filled with all kinds of wonderful humor."
Zylman thinks that the humor of the show will appeal to everyone, including Western Michigan University students.
"I think, quite honestly, there is nothing like going to the theatre, especially downtown in Kalamazoo at Christmastime because we're right across the street from Bronson Park and it's so beautifully decorated for the holidays and there are wonderful restaurants downtown," Zylman said. "You get to see a holiday themed show, and I know for a lot of Western students, they're away from home and it might be kind of hard to get into the holiday spirit."
Zylman assured that the show won't have any heavy or serious moments.
"At the holiday time, when stress levels can be a little higher than normal with everyone trying to find the perfect gift or complete the holiday preparations, it's nice to have an evening where you can just sit back and laugh and listen to some great music and have a good time," Zylman said.
While Zylman said the show is a couple hours of silliness, there are also resonant themes present through the show.
"We have great voices," Zylman said. "It's a very talented cast, beautiful voices, great actors and actresses, and the nice thing about 'Nuncrackers,' not only is it really funny, but there's a nice little message in there as well."
Zylman expects that people will benefit from the themes present in the show, including, "That idea of really working and doing your best and kind of banding together in the face of adversity."
But for those who don't want too much weight in their comedies, Zylman noted that "Nuncrackers" is also loaded with double entendre.
"You just go 'Huh? Did they really say that?" Zylman said. "Then you laugh out loud."
"Nuncrackers" is just one show in a series of "Nunsense" musical comedies and is the only Christmas-themed musical in the series.
"People just love these 'Nunsense' shows, again, because they are slightly irreverent, they're very funny, they're heartwarming, and it's just an entertainment that everyone can sit back and enjoy," Zylman said.

Windows 7 Ultimate x32
Windows 7 USB/DVD Tool - "unable to run bootsect"
Hello. I have a laptop whose hard drive is ruined and I want to perform a clean Windows install on a new hard drive using the Product Key found on the label on the laptop.
I downloaded an ISO image of W7 Home Premium 64 bits from here and used W7 USB/DVD Tool on my Windows 7 32 bits desktop to create a bootable flash drive. At the the following message appeared:
Files copied successfully. However, we were unable to run bootsect to make the USB device bootable. If you need assistance with bootsect, please click the "Online Hlep" link above for more information.I looked around on the Web and found this page. I understand where the error comes from as stated in the link but the problem is that I cannot download the bootsect.exe file since I don't have a microsoft store account and I haven't bought Windows 7 HPrem. either, it came pre-installed with the laptop.
Is there any other way of getting the bootsect file?
Thanks for the help.

Hi there
The USB tool often doesn't work so do it manually as per described here ( at the botom in the section using the command line).
4 Ways to Create a Bootable Windows 7 or Vista USB Drive
There might be a method in the Tutorials too on the Forum. -- Choose the Manual / command line method.
(Note if you don't have a DVD drive then use a "Virtual Image" mounter tool to mount the ISO to extract the files - alcohol51% free edition is quite good as are others -- Windows 8 has this facility built in to the OS as standard BTW).

Hi addo,
You can easily create your bootable Windows Installation pen drive with Rufus without much ado.

Hi there
that tool doesn't work either in a lot of cases
I can't see what's wrong with using the basic command line method and the bootsect command from the actual Windows 7 installation files -- that way at least it's all Ms bog standard -- who knows what sort of stuff could exist in some of these 3rd party "boot sector creation" tools.
|My System Specs
|26 Jul 2013
And I don't see any reason why the OP can't try any other tool and why any ordinary user should be compelled to learn and use command line when he can easily get it done with simple tools.
And it is not a rocket science to find out whether any program or utility contains deleterious material.
If you had analysed Rufus and found any please report and share.

Pod Lens SystemPrice: $176.00
Design by Ross Lovegrove, 1998.
By Luceplan.
For the light for your home garden, the terrace, spaces around the swimming pool or for the vegetable garden. Pod Lens is high, low, stuck into the ground, in bunches or festoons on the branches of trees. The diffuser, reminiscent of natural forms like those of flower buds, is made entirely of polycarbonate, with over-molded walls that make the lamp waterproof and its colors resistant to ultraviolet rays. Inside the house, when raised on a high stem with aluminum base, it becomes a lightweight floor lamp.
Choose how you would like to mount Pod Lens from pendant mount (fixture does not include junction box mount, but can be "draped" from branches etc.), wall mount, as a ground stake or a floor lamp (floor mount requires stem and base- mobile or stationary). Lens color choices include Sage Green, Terracotta, or Grey. Stems will match lens color. Wall mount and stationary base are finished in Grey. Mobile floor base is an aluminum finish.
All Pod Lens are wired with an 8' grey weather proof cord and plug set.
Material(s): Polycarbonate
- Pods: 4" D x 11" H
- Mobile Base: 14" D
- Stationary Base: 4" D x 14" H
- Wall Mount: 5.5" H x 11" Projection
- Stake: 13.7" H or 47" H
- Floor Stem: 70.8" H
Bulbs: 1 X 20W E26 medium base compact fluorescent lamp (not included)
Designer: Ross Lovegrove
Ross Lovegrove studied design at Manchester Polytechnic and subsequently trained at the Royal College of Art in London. At frog design, he contributed to the design of the Sony Walkman and Apple computers. As an in-house designer for Knoll International in Paris, Lovegrove worked on the Alessandri office system. As a co-member of the Atelier de Nimes, along with Philippe Starck and Jean Nouvel, he acted as a design consultant to Luis Vuitton, Cacharel, Dupont and Hermès. In 1990, he created Studio X in London. Lovegrove is inspired by forms of the natural world, the possibilities of new manufacturing techniques and the ability to evoke an emotional response in users.View other products by Ross Lovegrove

Make Your Stay in Kennebunk Special
February 8, 2012 by englishmeadows
Our English Goldendoodle, Bailey, is eager to tell readers about some of our Maine Bed and Breakfast lodging specials.
"I think every day at the Inn at English Meadows is special; I certainly have great fun from the moment I wake Eric and Liz until I tuck them in at night. But I guess people sometimes like a little something extra to make their time here even more special–kind of like treats. I can understand that; I like treats.
Our Valentine Indulgence Special is sure to bring out the romantic in anyone. Roses, champagne, luxurious Frette robes, and a decadent homemade chocolate desert are added to a two night stay. I don't know what this Valentine is, but it must be nice.
Is there a more perfect combination than a Manicure and Martinis? Her hands will be treated to a transformative experience. His hands will escort her to Old Vines, where martinis will be placed in both his and her hands. I wanted to get my nails done, but Liz and Eric just laughed at me.
Yoga has been practiced for thousands of years. It endures because it balances and restores those who practice it. I know all about it–I do "Downward Dog" first thing every morning. Choose our Exhale Package and enjoy a private 90 minute yoga session and two relaxing massages during your stay. Deepen your practice, or begin it here.
When it's cold outside, our Winter Warm-Up Special feels just right. We'll have a bottle of red or white wine waiting for you, and we'll serve gourmet hot chocolate with homemade marshmallows and delicious, freshly baked cookies during your stay. To help you remember your cozy time in Kennebunkport, we'll let you take home our signature Sferra throw. Wow!
Whether you're pregnant for the first or the fifth time, you know what's coming: an adorable baby, sleep deprivation and exhaustion. All of your energy and attention will be focused on the baby once he or she arrives. For now, focus on yourself. Spend two nights in one of the luxury guest rooms at our Kennebunk/Kennebunkport Bed and Breakfast, and allow yourself to be pampered and massaged. We call this our Bliss Before Baby Special. Eric and Liz wish they had treated themselves to this before getting me; I can't imagine what they mean.
These are just some of the specials we offer at our Kennebunk/Kennebunkport inn; please see our Specials page for more. Treat yourself, because treats are nice."

My daughters Ashlynn 9 and Cassidy 7 spent the day off from school/work on Monday after the Big storm building an igloo in our back yard here in the town of Maine. With a few kids shovels a plastic recycling bin and lots of effort we were able to finish the 7ft tall structure.

Bio and Links
I was introduced to Find a Grave about 2000 by a cousin. Together we tried to add as many members of our family as we possibly could. It wasn't long before my cousin became the subject of his own memorial page. Eventually, I realized that there was more I could do than just search for my own family. So, I began trying to add photos whenever I could. Recently I became involved in a cemetery project in my area. A friend and I began searching through the hills, bushes and briers for long abandoned cemeteries, adding what we find to Find a Grave.
Find a Grave is a great site for people who are researching their family. We have made it our goal to do whatever we can to make it the very best it can be.

Glad to be of help, you don't have to give me credit of the photo, it is just a pass time thing to help preserve some of our history. I have just been working in the older sections of the cemetery, and find that there are some newer dates there too. I try to find the basic info on all, but that is not always easy to find!

Historical Traveller Reviews of Best Western Hood River Inn Hotel
Great Veiwsfrom Moonhole
Scenic view, retro decorfrom Louavull
Our window was large and looked out onto the river, which was very scenic and bustling with activity - lots of wind surfers and kite surfers. There was a walkway behind the hotel that stretched for about a quarter mile along the river, and was a great place to take a brisk walk.
The attached restaurant had a nice bar where we waited for our table. The hostess told us if we waited about twenty minutes until a new shift started, she could be sure to give us a seat with a view of the river. The food was above average, and the wine list included many fine Oregon wines at fair prices.
We hope we get to return sometime.
Okay stay at the Best Westernfrom NLFlower
Beautiful locationfrom tikimonkey
Great view, good stafffrom shutterbug2
& a museum, but it's a bit of a walk) to supplying lots of towels for the pool. We've stayed at much more pricey & "upscale" hotels that did not match this level of service. Maybe it's the vibe of Hood River in general, but I can highly recommend it. The view from our groundfloor room was great & the Columbia River provided entertainment with barges & wind surfers. There's a small beach at the inn, but it seemed mostly for wind surfing beginners. The pool was rather cool, but the weather was not warm (70 degrees F during the day). The hot tub was nice & seemed clean & well maintained. Meals were good in the dining room, but if you want to explore other options, the yellow pages has menus for many local place to eat.
We would certainly stay here again!
Great location, helpful stafffrom ilcoor
The only negative I can come up with is that as my friend and I sat outside our rooms in the evening to enjoy the view, the hum of the air conditioners was quite distracting. The staff was great--three hours after we checked out, I realized that I had left my expensive foam pillow behind--and when I called, it was still there!
Keep your socks on!from myles2go
Great locationfrom valvoline
Great locationfrom ElizabethMartin
Well treated for conventions 2 weeks in a rowfrom homerz
The views are nice of the river and the campus is very clean, with great areas to go walking down along the waterfront and to the marina next door. The restaurant has a stunning riverfront view from every table.
The convention meeting rooms were clean, easy to get to, and the hotel staff took great pains to keep us happy with timely refills on iced water, coffee, tea, etc. For some reason, the soap dispenser in the Gorge room bathrooms were not built in, so a bottle of soft soap sits on the counter. It gets really messy with that setup. I'm not sure why built in soap dispensers were overlooked.
I stayed in the west wing, top floor and both rooms, both weeks were always clean, and surprsingly quiet. I never had problems sleeping due to thin walls, which is a usual problem I have. Thank goodness that they have extra pillows that are really flat! For once, the showerhead in a hotel room has enough water pressure to get the shampoo out of your hair! AND the hair dryer worked well. It's amazing the little things you appreciate when you travel a LOT. The fridge did freeze my pop, but I turned it down the 2nd night and had no more issues.
The meals provided for the two conventions, while needing to stay under a government per diem rate, were always very good. We even got to have Tom Grant come out and play a night in the downstairs lounge for us.
The only complaint I can think of is that if only given an hour for lunch, you'd have a 40 minute wait from time of order and I'm not sure why. I tried lunch this way the first day, then bagged the idea for the rest of each week. We usually ran into town for lunch thereafter, as it was a bit cheaper anyway. Pietro's Pizza is fast and has a great salad bar.
I love the morning paper delivered to my door, the nearby Starbucks with a very friendly staff and free high speed wireless throughout the campus!
I would stay here again for business or pleasure.
Top Local Tips for Mt. Hood Meadows
Windsurfer's & Boardsurfer's Dream! Hood River's long been known as a mecca for wind & board surfers. The Columbia Gorge is no slouch compared to the views of European (Switzerland, Germany, etc) river towns with majestic slopes. The Columbia river & gorge itself looks like a ready set for a painter or photographer to simply capture. Hood River has oodles of character with a whole range of age brackets enjoying the town. A sportspersons destination for hiking, fishing, etc. If you're lucky, Mt. Hood itself will peek out of the clouds. Careful about the time of year: it gets socked in a lot, and with the rain/snow: can be stuck indoors if you don't check first. Come quick & play before Google, Yahoo! and the big sportwear labels plant a headquarters or "campus" here!
outdoors and more water sports, hiking, biking and more, but plenty for the less active person too. Spectacular scenery, fun shopping and dining,

EuroMillions Jackpot Rolls Again
Last night the first EuroMillions draw of the week took place and players were hoping to match the numbers drawn to win the impressive rollover jackpot on offer. However, this wasn't the case as the results show that no players matched the five plus two combination drawn therefore the EuroMillions jackpot rolls over again. This is now the ninth time that the EuroMillions top prize has rolled over so Friday's EuroMillions jackpot is estimated at £92 million.
The EuroMillions results from last night's draw if you haven't seen them already are 8, 15, 17, 25, 28 and the Lucky Stars drawn were 3 and 11. Despite no one winning the jackpot there were ten ticket holders that matched five numbers and one Lucky Star to win the second tier prize that was worth £199,832.10. To add to that there were over three million ticket holders that won a prize last night and the majority of winners, just over 1.7 million, won the smallest EuroMillions prize that was worth £2.50 last night.
This is now the highest the EuroMillions jackpot has been for some time, however it will be interesting to see if on Friday's draw any players can match the numbers drawn in the EuroMillions results to win the jackpot, or if the top prize in this lottery will rollover again and surpass the £100 million mark.
If you fancy winning this top prize then make sure you have your tickets ready and you never know, luck could be on your side and you could end up matching the numbers drawn to scoop the jackpot.

Two O.C. activists share little more than an ideal they heard 50 years ago at the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.
Wednesday: PBS SoCal TV will air its March@50 program at 10 a.m., including an online panel discussion with participants from the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.

•Organizers initially wanted to hold a demonstration on Capitol Hill. The Kennedy Administration opposed that. The compromise: A short march from the Washington Monument to the Lincoln Memorial.
•One of the goals of the march: Get legislators to establish a nationwide minimum wage of $2 an hour.
•The city of Washington, D.C., banned the sale of alcohol for the day.
•Despite referring to the march as ''the Farce on Washington,'' Malcolm X attended the gathering.
•The Kennedy Administration was ready to cut off power to the public-address system if officials deemed the speeches inflammatory.
•The only female speaker listed, Myrlie Evers, widow of slain activist Medgar Evers, was to deliver a "Tribute to Negro Women Fighters for Freedom" but could not attend.

•To give people access to drinking water, spouts were attached to the ends of fire hydrants.
•Among the many celebrities who appeared on stage, actor Marlon Brando held up a cattle prod as a symbol of the hatred and brutality black people faced at the hands of segregationists.
•Martin Luther King Jr.'s speech as written was titled "Normalcy – Never Again" and was expected to last about 10 minutes. King went off script and nearly doubled his time at the podium. Gospel singer Mahalia Jackson is said to have urged him to, "Tell 'em about the dream, Martin."
•President John F. Kennedy met with the "Big 10" leaders of the march in the White House after it ended to discuss his proposed civil rights legislation. He was assassinated before he enact such legislation.

On Aug. 28, 1963, Patricia Adelekan was 21. Carl Flowers was 16. She was black. He was white.
They didn't know each other, but they had at least one thing in common: A desire to improve the lives of their country's black citizens.
That's why both came to the nation's capital 50 years ago for the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom.
Adelekan was known as Patsy Isbell back then. A year later she married a doctor from Nigeria. She later traveled the world, raised four children and became a lifelong educator. But on the day of the March on Washington, she was one of the young people working with the NAACP to help end job discrimination in Columbus, Ohio.
Now retired in Anaheim, Adelekan has a long résumé and list of accomplishments – teacher, youth advocate, TV and radio host, writer, speaker. She founded an English as a Second Language Toastmasters Club and remains active in social and political causes, including involvement with the community group Los Amigos of Orange County.
She attended the March on Washington as an NAACP volunteer.
Flowers sneaked in.
Both his parents worked for the government – his mother was a cartographer and his father a geographer. Both were conservative Republicans who preferred not to make waves. So young Flowers went to the march without their permission.
Flowers grew up in Maryland, raised for the most part by the family's maid, who was African American. She influenced his outlook on racial issues, and his decision to attend March on Washington. The event influenced the path he took later as a lifelong activist for racial equality.
Flowers, now 66, ran track in high school and college. He later became a teacher – history, math, social science and P.E. – and coached several sports. He lives in Irvine, working as a yoga teacher and a personal trainer. He also serves as assistant treasurer for the political group Democrats of Greater Irvine.
To Adelekan and Flowers, that historic day they spent in a crowd of a quarter-million people who heard Martin Luther King Jr.'s stirring "I Have a Dream" speech in person is no less important now than it was then.
Here are their experiences, in their own words:
I lived down the street from a reverend, a Baptist minister, who was a very good friend of Martin Luther King. Whenever Martin Luther King would visit Rev. Hicks, he would always ask for the young people; "Where are the young people?"
I was one of those that would be called to go to the church and meet with Dr. King.
He would always come with someone, never alone. He came with students from SNCC (Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee). He came with students from South Africa. Many times, when they'd come, you could see the dog bites or the burns from the water hoses.
He probably came (to my neighborhood) at least six times. And one of those times, he said "We're going to march on Washington, we need help. Do I have some volunteers to help us?" He gave us the date. We said yes, some of us would help. What did that mean? It meant calling people to see if they would ride a bus to get to Washington, D.C.

Worcester County Man Sentenced to 11 1/2 Years For Distributing Crack Cocaine
Baltimore, Maryland - U.S. District Judge J. Frederick Motz sentenced Curtis Schoolfield, a/k/a "Smoosh," age 29, of Pocomoke City, Maryland to 138 months in prison followed by 8 years of supervised release for conspiracy to distribute crack cocaine, and distribution and possession with intent to distribute crack cocaine, announced United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein.
According to testimony at the two day trial, Schoolfield sold 16, 12.9 and 20.3 grams of crack to a government informant on three separate occasions. On one occasion, he sent his mother to deliver the crack and collect the money. The jury returned its verdict after deliberating less than two hours.
On November 8, 2000, Schoolfield was convicted in the Circuit Court for Worcester County, Maryland, of distribution of crack cocaine and was sentenced to six years in prison for this conviction, with four years and six months suspended followed by two years probation.
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein praised the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Worcester County Drug Task Force for their investigative work in this Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Force case. Mr. Rosenstein thanked Assistant U.S. Attorney Gregory Welsh, who prosecuted the case.
Help us combat the proliferation of sexual exploitation crimes against children.

This year's AEGON Classic in Birmingham is likely to attract a number of top players after it was announced the tournament is to be upgraded.
The Wimbledon warm-up event will become a WTA Premier 600 event as part of plans to increase the gap between the French Open and Wimbledon to three weeks, extending the grass-court season.
In the past, the tournament has been won by some of the biggest names in tennis, including Billie Jean King, Martina Navratilova and Steffi Graf, while Maria Sharapova was the champion two years in a row (2004 and 2005).
But since then it has struggled to attract marquee names, with Francesca Schiavone the top seed at last year's event which was won by American Melanie Oudin.
Lawrence Robertson, commercial director for the Lawn Tennis Association, said: "The upgrade to the AEGON Classic will mean more prize money and more ranking points for competitors, meaning more of the world's best players will come to Birmingham."
The LTA has recently invested £5m into a £12m project to redevelop the Edgbaston Priory Club, which is due to be completed this summer ahead of the tournament from June 9-16.
American Melanie Oudin is the defending champion.

Each year, hundreds of attorneys participate in one of the largest lobby days at the Massachusetts State House. Their goal is to urge lawmakers to protect state funding for programs that provide civil legal aid to low-income Massachusetts residents.
Thursday, January 29, 2015
11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m.
State House - Great Hall
At the 15th Annual Walk to the Hill for Civil Legal Aid in 2014, more than 500 attorneys heard from various speakers, including the Chief Justice of the Supreme Judicial Court and the presidents of the Massachusetts and Boston Bar Associations, about the critical role that civil legal aid plays in ensuring equal access to justice. They then visited their state Senators and Representatives to encourage them to provide $17 million in funding for civil legal aid in the fiscal year 2015 Massachusetts state budget.

Title: Average quality for Halloween costume
Date: Oct 13, 2012
My son is very excited to be Bane for Halloween. The costume is typical for what you purchase at a party store- one piece suit with rubber details. The suit fabric is thicker than usual, which is nice. It closes with velcro in the back. The rubber face piece had a strong odor but it was gone after allowing it to air out. We were unclear as to whether the pants were included, they are part of the one-piece suit. Overall, it makes my son happy so I'm happy.

Ishii, S. and Marshall, Fiona M. and Bell, John N. and Abdullah, Ahmad Makmom (2004) Impact of ambient air pollution on locally grown gice cultivars (Oryza sativa L.) in Malaysia. Water, Air and Soil Pollution, 154 (1-4). pp. 187-201. ISSN 0049-6979
Full text not available from this repository.
Official URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.1023/B:WATE.0000022964.55434.05
This study presents the first experimental evidence of the sensitivity of rice plants to ambient air pollution from the Southeast Asian tropical region. Two widely adopted local cultivars of rice (Oryza sativa L.), MR84 and MR185, were grown in open top chambers ventilated with charcoal-filtered air and non filtered air, and in adjacent open plots on the campus of University Putra Malaysia. This is located on the south side of the Klang Valley, a rapidly developing area embracing Kuala Lumpur and other satellite cities, but where agriculture remains important The experimental period was from October 2000 to January 2001, corresponding to the main rice growing season in peninsular Malaysia. Adverse impacts on rice growth and yield were observed and were attributed to phytotoxic levels of ambient ozone. There was a clear difference in the sensitivity of the two selected cultivars. A yield reduction of 6.3% was observed for cultivar MR185 (p < 0.01) which was largely due to an increase in grain sterility, whilst the yield reduction for cultivar MR84 was not statistically significant. The reasons for these differing responses are discussed, and a comparison of the present findings with crop responses to ozone found under European conditions suggests a higher sensitivity in our study crops. With increasing industrialisation and urbanisation, this study highlights the need for further examination of the sensitivity of a wider range of crops and cultivars to ambient air pollution in this region, and also points to the potential for appropriate cultivar selection to ameliorate impacts.

Get PUMPED!
August 06, 2013 // Category: Fitness Advisor
Whether it's frequent business travel or a summer vacation, one of the first things to go out the window when you are at a hotel is your workout. But, with a little bit of planning, you can stay motivated and consistent with your workouts. Here's how:
Go online and see what your hotel offers. You probably check out your hotel before you book it to make sure it has the amenities you like, so check out the gym too. Some hotel gyms are fully equipped with circuit machines, free weights, treadmills and ellipticals. Others have fantastic pools where you can swim laps, and some even have fitness classes.
