Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka ("The Hill Dyed Rose Madder") is a 2007 Visual Novel by feng. A Twelve Episode Anime adaptation also aired as part of the Fall 2008 lineup, as well as a 2-volume manga adaptation running 2008-2009. A PlayStation 2 port with a new voice cast (based on the anime) and a more family-friendly version, Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka Parallel, was released about a year later, which was eventually ported to the PlayStation Portable on 2009.Junichi Nagase is known around town as the feared "Geno Killer". One day while out for a walk, he saves a girl from some delinquents trying to cause trouble. That girl was Yuuhi Katagiri. In a fit of impulse, Junichi ends up kissing her, only to find out that because his parents saved her father some time ago, she is now engaged to be his fiancee. Yuuhi then starts living in his house to try and assemble a report on Junichi to prove to her father why they shouldn't be married. The rest of Junichi's class goes to great lengths to tease the couple, so as it goes, Hilarity Ensues.
Akane-iro ni Somaru Saka provides examples of the following tropes:

Marginal Marine Environments and Lakes:
Transitional Environments: Depositional environments that are influenced both by sea water, fresh, water, and often subaerial exposure. Effectively includes everything terrestrial along a coast and the shallowest portion of the marine shelf. These intergrade, but for simplicity we recognize four major transitional environments:
- Deltas: The interface of fluvial and marine environments.
- Shoreface: Where sediment is deposited and transported by wave action and subjected to intermittent subaerial exposure.
- Tidal: Dominated by tide action, subaerially exposed fine sediments at low tide, shallow and marshy at high tide
- Barrier complexes: Long sandy islands or peninsulas that parallel shore but are separated from it by lagoons.
Deltas: The interface between the stream and marine environments.
Deltas form when sediment is deposited at river mouths faster than marine processes can remove it. This happens because, streams empty into a standing body of water, flow velocity decreases and the flow quickly drops its sedimentary load, starting with bed load, but eventually including suspended load.
Deltas are rare on active margins, but commonly found on passive continental margins.
The simple schematic at right shows their most important distinguishing features:
- Delta deposits prograde or advance their edges into the ocean.
- Because the coarsest sediments are deposited closest to the river mouth, and the finest ones farthest away, the general stratigraphy of a delta environment shows a coarsening upward sequence. Why is that?
The deltaic environment breaks down into three regions:
- The Delta Plain: The terrestrial environment where river meets ocean. It differs from fluvial floodplains and channels considered previously because it develops on top of previous deltaic deposits. In it, we see:
- Distributary channels
- Flood plains
- Interdistributary marshes and swamps
- Beach complexes
- The Delta Front: The steeply sloping portion of the delta where deltaic deposits slope downward from sea level to the level of the sea floor. Characterized by:
- Thinly bedded turbidites
- Slumps, slides and convolute bedding
- Grain size grades from sand and silt near sea level to fine clay farther out. During floods, however, sand may extend farther down slope.
- Prodelta: fine grained distal mudstones on the edge of the delta furthest from shore. Usually finely laminated
Deltas in map view:
As a channel current reaches the ocean and loses confinement, it spreads across the surface of the salt water as a tongue-shaped plume. This plume experiences friction with sea water at its edges, so particles drop from suspension at the sides, continuing the river's subaerial natural levees as subaqueous levees.
Bed load, however, is deposited in the thalweg of the channel mouth where the fresh water plume separates from the bottom, as a channel mouth bar. The presence of the channel mouth bar divides the thalweg into two distributary channels. As the delta progrades, these channels lengthen. The channel mouth bar is perched at the top of the delta front. Failures of the front sediments can result in turbitity currents and slumps down its face. Because of current action and rapidly changing salinity, distributary channels are challenging to organisms.
Interdistributary bays: The spaces between distributary channels begin as pieces of open ocean that aggrade through the deposition of overbank muds and crevasse splays into interdistributary marshes and flood plains. These are typically sites of great biological activity, thus, many of the world's major coal deposits are from deltaic environments.
Distributary abandonment: Differences between distributary channels may prompt channels to avulse, abandoning some distributaries in favor of others (generally shorter ones.) Thus, a complication of delta stratigraphy is their tendency to abandon distributaries as may happen with the Mississippi and Atchafalaya.
In the rock record: The schematic at right contrasts the lithologies of deltaic facies. Remember This shows a cross section along a distributary channel. In a cross section through an interdistributary bay fines muds would be more prevalent. In the real world, interdistributary bay and distributary deposits are superimposed on one another as deltas develop and abandon their distributaries.
Factors controlling delta morphology in map view:
Typically, current is not the only thing influencing delta morphology. Tides and waves also do. the spectrum of delta morphology, therefore, has three end members:
River dominated: The action of currents in distributary channel predominates. In map view these appear lobate or form a "bird's-foot". E.G.: The Mississippi (right).
Tide dominated: The action of tidal currents significantly overprints that of channel flow. Channels become aligned with the direction of tidal currents E.G.: The Fly, New Guinea, (right).
Wave dominated: Wave action significantly reworks sediments, spreading them up and down the coast. Progradation of distributary channels is restricted E.G.: The São Francisco, Brazil, (right).
Diagnostic features Deltas:
- Setting: At passive continental margins, adjacent to fluvial and shallow marine deposits.
- Geometry: Roughly triangular in map view and wedge shaped in cross section. Tens to thousands of km2 and tens to thousands of meters thick.
- Typical sequence: Coarsening upward from laminated prodelta clays to distributary channel and bar sands, interfingered with interdistributary muds. E.G. Lourinha, Portugal
- Fossils: Marine organisms in prodelta and delta front deposits. Coal in interdistributary muds.
Turbidites: We referred to Turbidity currents periodically moving coarse sediments down the delta front. In fact, these are the primary down-slope movers of submarine sediments altogether, and characterize continental slope deposition.
A brief review:
- Earthquakes trigger slumps or other mass wasting events. These kick sediments up into suspension.
- The resulting mixture of water and sediment is much denser than sea water, and goes roaring off downslope. This is a turbidity current. It has a life of its own, separate from the landslide that started it. Turbidity currents are capable of carving canyons in deposits of unconsolidated sediments.
- Eventually, as the turbidity current loses energy, larger, then progressively smaller clasts are deposited. Because progressively finer clasts are deposited in progressively lower energy, grain size and flow conditions are correlated. The result is the Bouma sequence:
- Ta (massive): Structureless basal conglomerates.
- Tb (planar bedded): Plane bed deposition - Fr > 1.
- Tc (current rippled): Ripples/bedforms - Fr < 1.
- Td (planar laminated): Laminated silt and mud
- Te (suspension fallout only): Laminated mud
- Turbidites can be up to 10 m thick, however most are much smaller. Their bases are often characterized by sole marks such as flute casts.
Turbidite-dominated continental slope deposits are known as flysch - many superposed turbidites. (right)
Peritidal environments
What if a stream met the ocean without transporting in copious sediment. This yields a tide dominated environment of tidal estuaries and wetlands. The key features of this environment are:
- Extreme range of salinity
- Alternation between submergence and subaerial exposure.
- Low net circulation yielding poor oxygenation.
- Thus, only a small cast of organisms can successfully colonize it, typically marsh grasses.
- Sediments tend to occupy reducing environments, so dark, organic rich.
- Muds interfingered with sands and silts delivered by incoming tides or rivers.
Tidal Flats: If a peritidal environment experiences enough tidal current flow that vegetation can't become established, the result is a tidal flat. (E.G. the Turnagain Arm of the Cook Inlet, AK.) Diagnostic features include:
- Experience daily reversals in flow direction
- Herringbone cross beds (from alternating current flow)
- Flaser, wavy, and lenticular beds form as flows of differing strength alternately deposit sands and muds
- Mudcracks and algal mats on upper-most reach of the flat
Shoreface/Beach: A deposit of unconsolidated sediment extending from low tide to a topographic break such as a line of dunes or cliffs.
- Requirements for beach formation:
- loose sediment
- Wave energy strong enough to remove clay and silt sized particles, sand moved by saltation, actually moves sand up onto shore, covering heavier particles
- Separates sand by energy level creating a beach profile
- Beach regions:
- Offshore: below wave base. Accumulates finer grained sediment from water column.
- Lower shoreface: Shoaling zone. Wave action intensely affects lower shoreface only during storm events. Primarily finer sands with layers of mud. Planar lamination present if not disrupted by bioturbation.
- Upper shoreface: Influenced by regular wave energy. Breaker/surf zone.
- Medium-fine sands, well sorted
- Dominated by longshore currents
- waves (moving perpendicular to shore) deposit sediments in bars parallel to shore
- Trough cross bedding common as a result of unidirectional current flow in longshore troughs.
- Surf zone dominated by multi-directional trough cross beds, low angle planar cross beds.
- Foreshore: The swash zone. Between high and low tide lines. Strong shallow flows. Upper flow regime planar beds dominate. Sometimes slightly cross bedded.
- Backshore: Between normal high tide and margin of beach. Characterized by berms, shelf-like storm deposits. Except during storms, the wind is the primary agent of transport. Beyond the berm, eolian dunes are common.
Barrier complexes:
Barrier: elongate sandy islands or peninsulas that run parallel to shoreline.Their formation requires:
- Separation from shore by lagoons and marshes
- Require abundant sediment supply
- Longshore currents and wave action dominant over tidal action
- The seaward side of barriers have typical shoreface environments
- Offshore: below wave base. Accumulates finer grained sediment from water column.
- Tombolo. Sometimes, a sea stack or island may form a wave shadow. When that happens, sediment can accumulate behind it, eventually connecting it to the mainland.
- Spits: Imagine that a beach ends at an embayment, and that a longshore current is carring sediment into the embayment. Voila! A spit! A projection of a beach into a body of water.
- Baymouth bar: If the spit continues to develop, it may completely enclose the embayment, forming a baymouth bar.
- Barrier islands: Of course, a baymouth bar does form a barrier between two bodies of water. If this is broken, tidal inlets or passes can form. The separated segments become barrier islands.
Lagoon Body of quiet water isolated between the barrier and mainland.
- Sediment: Fine silts and clays settle, often laminated
- Usually rich in microbial activity and/or vegetation
- Water can be stagnant and anaerobic, forming organic rich muds
- Can be part of the tidal range and exhibit tidal flat deposits
A final note: Whereas fresh water is acidic, sea water is just slightly alkaline. Thus, calcareous cements (usually aragonite) can cement beach rock in situ.

Christmas feels very simple and good right now. We didn't put up every single decoration we have this year. Sometimes putting every single piece of it up just feels like clutter. This year it feel like just enough.
I did make one more ornament though.
I purchased some wooden disks from Modern Needleworks on etsy. These are laser cut wooden bases for cross stitching and embroidery. I embroidered a simple geometric pattern, but when I was trying to decide whether or not this would become an ornament or a necklace, I added some sparkle with some Swarovski crystal beads.
Adding that little bit of sparkle suddenly made it seem perfect for the tree. I covered the back with a piece of leather to hide my crazy stitches and added a jump ring at the top.
I have another base I'd like to stitch up, if I could only remember where I put it.
I am going take a blog break for the holiday season. I plan to spend some time with family and finish the writing I need to do for the book. There's some movies to watch, some presents to open, an eggnog habit to kick, some family to see.
Thank you for being out there, for stopping by this space, for being excited about what I do, and for being the awesome people you are. I wish you peace this holiday season.
See you in January!

Also can we get a supply for something other than a toner colour? Maybe icons for, fuser assemblies, imaging units (drums), toner collection units, rollers, and other "consumable supplies"?
Thanks to those who have offered help here with regards to MSSQL
The database libraries I use in PrintMaster, in theory, support multiple databases - but the queries have to be written in a slightly different, generic, way. For most of the project I think that would be fine - but there are several queries in there at the moment that use mainly MySQL-specific functions and syntax, which would need to be updated.
So - if MSSQL was something that people really wanted to be supported, I could look into the possibility of updating the project to support it "out of the box". The only problem is that I don't know much about using MSSQL at all Do I just download SQL Server Express and away I go?
Also can we get a supply for something other than a toner colour? Maybe icons for, fuser assemblies, imaging units (drums), toner collection units, rollers, and other "consumable supplies"?
Thanks for the suggestions guys.
Id like to use this between 2 departments so will not be able to install just on My PC.
I have tried installing mysql on the server but will not allow me to create new database using the command line syntax CREATE DATABASE. Where am i going wrong?
Webman im not a pro at MSSQL but i assume just installing SQL Express would give you all required.
CANT WAIT TO USE YOU APP!! Its going to save us alot of hassle
Hi eskIT.
What errors are you receiving when you try to make the database? How are you trying to do these?
When you set up MySQL, you should have set a "root" password at some point. When you log in as root with that password, you should be able to do anything - including creating new databases.
@webman - ive said it before - excellent bit of software!!
Any news on those changes? (adding in chargeback ticks)
I set the Root password and allows me to login. when i try creating the database i get no errors just carriage return to the next line.
@eskIT - use apache friends - xampp for windows
It made things so easy for me to install Print Master.
Anyway we can make better use of screen real estate? There's a lot of useless space to the left and right of the Install consumable Consumable stock columns.
lines 72-78).
You will see references to grid_5 suffix_1 and grid_6. These classes determine the width on the page that each one takes up. It's based on a grid system, with 12 imaginary columns to work from in total. So if you used grid_6 classes on both columns, each would take up half of the width of the container. Or you could have a grid_5 for the consumables and a grid_7 for the stock. As long as the grid_X numbers add up to 12, you should be fine.
@webman I have just installed PrintMaster today - great product!
I have a couple of queries / suggestions for slight changes...
1.) (and I think it has been mentioned before) the ability to track more than just toners; i.e. Drum / Fuser Units etc.
2.) it would be really useful (I think at least ;-) ) if the Models page were to show a count of printers for each model, in the same way the manufacturer page shows a count of printers.
3.) Per-consumable critical / warning / OK levels. If I have only one of a particular model I may be happy to only have one consumable on the shelf; but if I have ten of this model I may consider four toners to be critical...
Thanks again for your work on this; great script!
webman (14th January 2014)
Hi Jon, thanks for your message and checking out PrintMaster
Your number 1 and 3 suggestions have already been mentioned before. This additional request though has given them extra weight to help them gain more priority for the next round of changes! Number 2 is a good idea as well and rather easy to do.
Thanks again!

This CEO Note appears in the new Spring 2014 issue of Oceana magazine, now available online.
Saving the ocean sounds like a global-scale task. For practical people, such big ambitions can be off-putting. Many of us want to know that what we are doing is actually making a difference, and will readily trade in glorious unfulfilled ambitions for measurable and concrete achievements.
So do Oceana's campaigns meet that standard?
"Let's save the oceans and feed the world." We've been saying that a lot lately, but now we have company.
Last week, Bloomberg Philanthropies committed a historic $53 million over five years to improve international fisheries management. The project will help deliver healthy oceans to our future and ensure that 700 million people can eat a healthy seafood meal every day. It's a necessary intervention for the oceans at a time when overfishing threatens our food supply and we face the challenge of feeding 9 billion people in the not-so-distant future.
Last month, Oceana CEO Andy Sharpless visited the New England Aquarium to talk about his new book, The Perfect Protein: A Fish Lover's Guide to Saving the Oceans and Feeding the World. Co-authored with Suzannah Evans, the book explains how seafood will be key to solving the coming global hunger crisis. Wild fish populations in decline because of overfishing, destruction of habitat and bycatch, and we need to act fast in order to save them.
Conservation is an international challenge, especially when it comes to our oceans. Earlier this month the presidents and CEOs of 24 leading conservation organizations, including Oceana, send a letter to U.S. Trade Representative Michael Froman urging him to incorporate fisheries subsidies reform into the Trans-Pacific Partnership.
Wednesday night I had the honor of being on stage with former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton and HBO CEO Richard Plepler at Oceana's Partners Award Gala in Los Angeles. The gala honors individuals who make outstanding contributions to the cause of protecting our oceans.
We live in a world increasingly divided and governed by partisanship. At times, it can be frustrating for those of us who want to make a difference.
That is why I am proud to let you know about the Oceana's relationship with two remarkable leaders from different sides of the aisle, both united in their desire to save our oceans: Hillary Rodham Clinton and James Connaughton.
Happy Friday, all!
We just wanted to remind you about the The Economist's fast-approaching World Oceans Summit where 200 global leaders, including our CEO Andy Sharpless, will discuss the future of our oceans.
The summit, which takes place in Singapore from Feb. 22-24, will offer a robust examination of the future of the seas, the importance of the sustainable use of the oceans, and what this means for business.

DNA tests have confirmed that a man in Lebanese custody is the suspected leader of an al-Qaeda-linked group that said it carried out bombings across the Middle East, the Lebanese army has said.
In a brief statement, the army said the tests show that the detained man is Majid al-Majid, a Saudi citizen and the commander of the Abdullah Azzam Brigades.
Al-Majid is on Saudi Arabia's list of 85 most-wanted individuals, and the US State Department has designated the group he leads a foreign terrorist organisation.
The group has claimed responsibility for attacks throughout the region, including the 2010 bombing of a Japanese oil tanker in the Persian Gulf and several rocket attacks from Lebanon into Israel.
The group claims it carried out the November 19 double-bombing of the Iranian Embassy in Beirut, which killed at least 23 people and wounded dozens.
Earlier on Friday, families of those killed in the Iranian Embassy bombing demanded that al-Majid be tried in Lebanon and not be sent to his homeland.
He has not been charged in connection with the embassy blasts.

Discussion: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
So now that the excitement of signing day has come and gone, coupled with it being a slow day at the office, I decided to try and put some metrics to our recruiters for the 2014 class.
Here is my methodology. I took all of our recruits and looked at both their composite score on 24-7 and their 24-7 score. Since the 247 composite is listed as a decimal (0.9528) and their regular score is listed as a whole number less than 100, I multiplied their composite by 100 then added the two together and divided by 2. For example. BAW has a composite of 0.9503 and a 247 score of 96. After I normalized the first score, that gave BAW a rank of 95.515
I then examined who recruited them. For example BAW was recruited solely by Whammy. So I gave Whammy all of the points for BAW. If a recruit had a secondary recruiter I gave the primary guy 100% of those points and the secondary guy 50% of those points. For example. Dante Sawyer had a score of 94.875 in my arbitrary system. He was recruited by Mangus and Adams. So I gave Mangus all 94.875 points and Adams 47.4375 points. Unfair? Possibly, but stay with me. Here's how it all shook out.
Elliott 446.11
Spurrier Jr 385.465
Adams 359.6775
Brown 313.41
Mangus 279.105
Ward 276.825
Sands 89.705
Robinson 87.265
Botkin 86.235
Further breaking it down to primary vs secondary points....
Elliott 446.11, 0
Spurrier Jr 251.08, 134.385
Adams 178.555, 181.1225
Brown 177.76, 135.65
Mangus 279.105, 0
Ward 276.825, 0
Sands 89.705, 0
Robinson 0, 87.265
Botkin 86.235, 0
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
I think your system is horribly flawed
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Ranking things must be part of our genetic code. I swear if two guys were marooned on a desert island they'd start ranking the coconuts by blemishes and shell density.
Not pissing all over your list, just making an observation.
Not sure about your system, a lot of depends upon the area they're assigned to.
Plus, I know Whammy kills it. I think you rightly point out, however, that Elliott sometimes doesn't get the credit he deserves as a recruiter.
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
nice list...looks like it took some time to set it up
Obviously, it looks like (based on your number system) that Elliot should get more credit for his recruting but of course there is far more variables than whether or not someone signed when figuring out who is the best recruiter.
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Edit: So it turns out that 247 has their own raking system (but I think it's multi year, not just 2014....)
Elliott 59.22
Mangus 57.98
Ward 55.96
Adams 47.3
Brown 47.25
Spurrier, Jr 41.1
Sands 34.46
Botkin 26.51
Robinson 16.61
FWIW, I'm not concerned with the top of either raking system....
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Rather than by recruiter, can you correlate by regions. IOW, I think your score may relate to the region the coach was assigned to recruit.
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Good stuff. Nerd points achieved ;)
The mitigating factors are that I heard the interview with green. They asked him about Grady brown and it seemed that his conversation with SOS was the deal sealer along with whammy.
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Ya'll remember how KICK @$$ our special teams were last year, right??
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
You should divide by the number of recruits they had so a guy that got 15 3*s wouldn't be rated higher than a guy with 5 5*s.

Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Magnus is our best recruiter. Ward close second.
There really is no way to quantify it, though. A great recruiter may get someone to come to an official visit here, that would have never otherwise come here. However, that recruit is being recruited by another great recruiter at a school that has better tradition, closer to home, offers a better chance at early playing time, etc. The recruit may choose the second school, but it was still a great job by the first recruiter to get him even thinking of his school in the first place. There is just so much that goes into it (including money under the table) that its hard to say who is better. To be honest, I'm convinced that the guys always near the top aren't really that great, they just offer lots of money (Ed Orgeron comes to mind).
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
If coach robinson isn't a good recruiter, what is he doing for his supper?
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Spurrier's laundry?
It damn sure isn't special teams coaching.
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Lonnie - you're such a d*ck for taking the time to put this list together. It might be the single worst thing you've done in your life.
Sriously, ut's an interesting list and largely aligns with what I would assume as the top tier of our recruiters, with Ward, Mangus, Elliott and Adams being at the top.
Hopefully Botkin and Robinson are good fundraisers, esp. Robinson since ST have been so bad.
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Yeah Special Teams needs vast improvement but maybe it will be his best year this year with more continuity with the players? Or does he know someone sorry about conspiracy.
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Interesting. Thanks for putting it together. What was your method for deciding who got the points for a split recruitment?
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
You could do it any number of ways. All I was looking for a was a quick thumbnail of how our coaches did.
:clap: To all of them. (Almost...)
Re: Discussion: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
The other thing, since coaches are assigned areas/regions to target:
1. How target rich is that area?
2. How effective is a position coach at recognizing talent for other positions and then being able to close on that kid (i.e. Sands recruiting a DT)?
Re: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
Re: Discussion: Ranking our recruiters for 2014
This seems to me to be meaningless metrics. Metrics often give clarity to a situation, but often are so reductionist, they not only don't tell the whole story, but they mislead. Probably a lot of work for a slow day, but I don't think it shows anything meaningful.

The closing of Tangerine dealt a blow to the 36-year-old McMullin, who's still looking for a new job. (And, sentimentally, to Kim, who previously worked as a server at many of Brokaw's restaurants and as his bookkeeper for a number of years.) But a couple of Buds lift his spirits, and soon he's reminiscing about Tangerine's halcyon days.
"It was mad-busy those first three years," recalls McMullin, who's rockabilly from his greased-back hair down to his white-and-black wingtip shoes. "We'd do 400 people a night through that place. Blake bought a Porsche on layaway. He just brought cash in and said, 'I want that Porsche.' It was a Speedster. He'd just bring some cash in at the end of the week and thunk it down towards his car. It didn't take him that long to buy it. It was insane." (Brokaw says he sold the car a few years back. "I don't own anything except my dogs," he says.)
Emigrés from Boulder, Colorado, during Washington Avenue's pre-boom days of the mid-'90s, the McMullins paid $375 a month for their loft back in the day. In their time they worked at almost all of Brokaw's businesses. It started back in the days of Sanctuary (which subsequently changed its name to Velvet), when they ran with Brokaw's crowd.
"I was already a bartender and Blake said he wanted to open a martini bar," Matt McMullin recalls. "I said I had a lot of fantastic recipes for different flavored martinis. We knew the martini-retro thing was going to break big. We pretty much brought the modern martini to St. Louis.
"Once Tangerine opened, it pretty much occupied our entire existence," he goes on. "There were hundred-hour weeks: Just have a beer as we were closing, go home, go to sleep, get up and do it again."
A similar buzz is in the air tonight at Anthony's. Brokaw, who created the menu along with head chef Vince Bommarito Jr., stays out of sight in the kitchen despite requests from his friends that he come out and talk. But his presence is here, in everything from a spinach-and-mushroom tamale appetizer to chocolate truffles served three flavors to a plate: peanut butter, raspberry and cayenne pepper. Godfather-esque, Tony's patriarch Vince Sr. makes the rounds. He compliments Brokaw's rapport with his son and indulges in a brief stroll down memory lane: "Blake worked for me for a long time, back before he started his restaurants. He understands what we're trying to do."
By the time Bommarito moves on, the Cardinals game has started at nearby Busch Stadium and Anthony's has nearly emptied.
"We made a classic business blunder," McMullin says, getting back to Tangerine's downfall. "What is Blake's biggest strength is also his biggest weakness -- that he loves to open businesses and he's fantastic about it. He can bring so many factors together so fast, it was really brilliant.
"Hungry Buddha was great, but it was probably a decision we shouldn't have made," McMullin continues. "It was a cannibalization of our own lunch customers at Tangerine. When we opened Lo as well, that drew more customers away from Tangerine. What we probably should have done in retrospect is funnel all that money back into Tangerine -- creating it again, expanding it, making it new. But there were a lot of factors that made that kind of tricky to do, and we made the classic business blunder of overexpansion, which was compounded by bad luck.
That bad luck, McMullin contends, came in the form of the tanking of Washington Avenue.
"It seemed to Blake and us at the time that the street would be able to support these multiple businesses. The expansion was to anticipate the street's explosion when all the [construction] work was done. We really expected the street to take off."
--anonymous graffiti,
Tangerine men's room
Paul "Pablo" Weiss's Kitchen K, which opened in August of last year, is currently being affected by stage two of the Washington Avenue renovation. Weiss says the St. Louis Development Corporation learned from its mistakes the first time around and is handling this stage of the project better. But he says stage one was a disaster.
"It was like the lunar surface: No traffic, nothing. It was a death knell to all the businesses, in that you couldn't get there by car," says Weiss.
"The fact that you couldn't get to the area just to eat killed Hungry Buddha," echoes Velvet and Rue 13 co-owner Scott Gilmartin.
Jennifer Tretter, who worked as Brokaw's bookkeeper, goes further.
"Basically, downtown is dead," Tretter argues. "I feel like they closed the street for a year and a half for nothing. Parking is a nightmare. Nobody's going out. It hurt everybody down there." Another factor: Until recently Washington Avenue's nightclubs were among the only local establishments of their kind that stayed open until 3 a.m. "Now with South Grand being open until 3 a.m. as well, along with U. City, there's just not enough people to go around," says Tretter.
She cites other ills, as well: The economy is bad. Downtown lofts are too expensive. And homelessness downtown is out of control. "Larry Rice's minions panhandling, 'Give me liquor, give me cigarettes,' every day," Tretter says, echoing a frequent Washington Avenue complaint. "I don't think I would want to live down there, personally. I don't know who they think is going to live down there. Fifty-year-old couples? The bars are the only reason to live down there."

State legislators returned to Albany today, and Southern Brooklyn's pols went with a message: when it comes to casinos, location matters.
Several legislators joined the newly-formed Stop the Coney Island Casino organization on Monday to say that Coney Island is off limits as a casino venue, and that any attempt to change the state constitution to expand gambling will be opposed unless it includes specific locations.
"[The proposed legislation to expand gambling] must include specifically where the casinos are being planned," said Assemblyman William Colton during the press conference. "Then we will know whether we can support or oppose such legislation. Because if we do not include that in what is going to be passed … we will be leaving the decision of whether Coney Island gets a casino not to the people of Coney Island, and not the people of Brooklyn, but to special interests."
The press conference at the Kings Bay Y (3495 Nostrand Avenue) was the formal debut of Stop the Coney Island Casino, and featured Assemblymembers Colton and Steven Cymbrowitz, State Senator Eric Adams, Councilman David Greenfield and 45th Assembly District Leader Ari Kagan. The bi-lingual press conference drew Russian-language media outlets and about 40 attendees from Russian-American and Russian-Jewish organizations. The organizations and elected officials said they stand united in opposing a Coney Island casino, claiming it will increase crime rates, depress the community's economy and obliterate quality of life.
"If you want to see crime go up, if you want to see traffic go up, if you want to see small businesses go out of business, then support the casino," said Councilman Greenfield. "But if you care about the community, join together with us and stop the Coney Island casino."

Chris Robshaw has played down the significance of England's injury concerns and is wholly confident that strength in depth can see his side to a succesful RBS 6 Nations campaign.
Robshaw skippers Harlequins in tonight's Aviva Premiership clash against Northampton Saints at Franklin's Gardens that will showcase a number of England contenders, including Dylan Hartley, Tom Wood, Courtney Lawes and Lee Dickson, as well as Joe Marler and Mike Brown.
And though Stuart Lancaster will have to do without the likes of Manu Tuilagi, Geoff Parling, Tom Croft, Christian Wade and Marland Yarde, the England captain insisted the squad would be strong enough to mount a serious challenge for the Championship.
Indeed, while twin wins over Australia and Argentina before a hard-fought 30-22 defeat to New Zealand represented a decent series of autumn QBE Internationals, Robshaw also reinforced the importance of winning the closer matches.
"There's been a lot spoken about injuries but you only need to look at our strength in depth from loosehead all the way down through the team to full back," he said.
"There are two or three players in every position who can come in and play well. That's exactly what you want – people pushing each other and competition for places."
"We want to really kick on as an England side. We've been in some good encounters and come second after being pipped. We've got a tough fixture to start away in France but they're all tough.
"They're the kind of places you want to go and test yourselves. The boys are looking forward to it."
England's schedule – a trip to the Stade de France before a visit to Murrayfield and home ties against Ireland and Wales – is rather unforgiving and means they will have to be on their mettle from the very first kick-off.
However, Robshaw insisted that he would want nothing else in such a pivotal competition on the road to Rugby World Cup 2015.
He added: "We've shown signs that we're going in the right direction but there are still things we want to tinker with. We are improving every time we meet up and that is the important thing.
"Stuart has been very open as to what our goal is and that is to go and hopefully win a World Cup in 2015. Every tournament we are improving, and hopefully we can do that again in the Six Nations."

CPU-Z for AndroidPosted by Franck Delattre - June 15th, 2013
CPU-Z arrives on Android. That version is of course very different from the PC version, but its aim is the same , namely a small tool that shows the key hardware feature of your device.
Please note that this version 1.01 is still a beta version. You can download it from Google Play by clicking on the image below.

Fantastic to see cpu-z on android installed it as soon as it heard it was available, cpu-z is one of the few programs i must have in my pc and now must have in my android.

Good app, but consumes lot of power. More than 5%, that too in background without any usage. It seems evenif I am not using the app, the app is working in the background and keeping all the sensors active.

This application must support Android 2.2 (FroyĐľ) or even 1.6 (Donut).
There are devices that can not be upgraded to ver.3.X (Honeycomb) which is a minimum requirement for the installation of this application.

Thanks, and CPU-Z is helpful.
But I had some questions, since I am working in a ARM SOC vendor company. Would you please help to give some suggestions on how to add a new SOC's support on CPU-Z, so that when running CPU-Z on our platform, the 'SOC'

hi, How can I download cpu-z for android to my PC ?
, June 17th, 2013 - #58474
If CPU-Z can be ported to Android, does that mean that it's possible to see it on Linux? Since they both use the Linux kernel.

Very good , But in my phone(TI OMAP4460 Android 4.1.1 ), It take the Setting / Battery Stats to abnormal state, Hope to fix the problem in next version. (sorry my poor english )

Suckling edition notes
The manuscript has been very lightly edited. No additional articulations or dynamics have been added; printed slurs should be considered my interpretation of the sometimes ambiguous markings of the manuscript. The autograph's beaming has been maintained; whilst sometimes it may be notational convenience, it is sometimes indicative of musical gesture.
The original clefs of the violoncello part have been retained, including the octave transposing treble clef (first movement, bars 71-81); Vivaldi's use of this clef is curious as its range is only a tone higher than is notated elsewhere in tenor clef. The viola's octave transposing bass clef in the same passage has been modernised to an alto clef.
The shorthands of the manuscript have been expanded; repeated ritornelli and repeated quavers have been written out in full. The missing viola part from the first movement, bar 13, has been added. A missing accidental from the first beat of the first movement, bar 44, of the violoncello part has been restored. The autograph's superfluous accidentals (when reading with modern conventions) have been removed.
This edition was prepared for a performance by the Editor with the Feinstein Ensemble in London on 3rd May, 2013.

SUPERIOR - Wisconsin legislators met with local leaders Friday to discuss problems caused by synthetic drugs in Northern Wisconsin.
The Last Place on Earth saga across the bridge in Duluth has been a cautionary tale for Wisconsin's legislators and law enforcement.
Officials gathered with members of the community to discuss current law and the effectiveness it may or may-not have in combatting changing synthetic formulas.
"So, we want to make sure that we are equipped properly in regards to what the law needs to be to prevent loopholes that would otherwise cause a similar problem here that we see in other cities and states," Superior Mayor Bruce Hagen said.
In 2011, a law banning possession, distribution, and delivery of synthetic marijuana was signed into law.

Not a line of her writing have I, Not a thread of her hair, No mark of her late time as dame in her dwelling, whereby I may picture her there; And in vain do I urge my unsight To conceive my lost prize At her close, whom I knew when her dreams were upbrimming with light, And with laughter her eyes.
What scenes spread around her last days, Sad, shining, or dim? Did her gifts and compassions enray and enarch her sweet ways With an aureate nimb? Or did life-light decline from her years, And mischances control Her full day-star; unease, or regret, or forebodings, or fears Disennoble her soul?
Thus I do but the phantom retain Of the maiden of yore As my relic; yet haply the best of her--fined in my brain It maybe the more That no line of her writing have I, Nor a thread of her hair, No mark of her late time as dame in her dwelling, whereby I may picture her there.

« Back to Italian Restaurants In Lebanon
Pasta Di Casa – Joumblat
Italian restaurant serving fresh pasta
Review by Souad
Open since 1994, Pasta Di Casa is a small and cozy Italian restaurant near Hamra. They serve fresh pasta, risotto, steaks, crepes and sandwiches in addition to anti-pasti, salads and soups.
The interior design is simple with a traditional Italian tone, it's really the warm and comfortable atmosphere of a family restaurant.
During our visit to Pasta Di Casa, we felt very welcome and pampered. The owner takes the time to help the customers to choose their dishes, then serves them as if they were 5 stars restaurant guests. The pasta was fresh and good, we loved the tomato bruscetta and the lemonade with the secret perfumed recipe.
Prices are very affordable and quantities are good.
If you're looking for good food and simple but warm atmosphere, I definitely recommend the place. It's a different experience from the often over sophisticated places we find in Beirut.Write a Review

Jul 15, 2014 at 12:10Was this interesting?10It's a five stars restaurant. I surely recommend it.
Mar 10, 2012 at 09:38Was this interesting?34I read several positive reviews on this restaurant but when I went there I was really disappointed.I asked for "al dente" pasta and I got uncooked one. Besides, we usually find shrimps, squids or mussels in the sea food pasta but they only put shrimps and crab.The lasagna was not tasty at all and you have to look for the meat inside.Very bad experience.

Just a reminder…..Mitt Romney committed his life to promote the Mormon church. At any time he can can switch to any opinion that is handed to him by the Prophet.
Go to Admin » Appearance » Widgets » and move Gabfire Widget: Social into that MastheadOverlay zone
If Tim Pawlenty, Newt Gingrich and other Republican presidential hopefuls feel they need to close the gap on front-runner Mitt Romney, they didn't show it at the New Hampshire debate.
Romney, the former Massachusetts governor who leads in the early polls and fundraising efforts, had a surprisingly easy two hours Monday night. He looked calm and steady, criticizing President Barack Obama on the economy and health care while rarely being forced on the defensive despite some well-known vulnerabilities of his own.
With New Hampshire's first-in-the-nation primary half a year away, the seven GOP candidates seemed more eager to introduce themselves to voters in the televised event than to start ripping each other. They rarely differed on major policies. All agreed that Obama has botched the economy and doesn't deserve a second term.
Near the end of the debate, Romney said anyone on the stage would be a better president than Obama. That was high praise for little-known candidate Herman Cain, libertarian hero Ron Paul and former Sen. Rick Santorum, who badly lost his last re-election bid in Pennsylvania. It also reflected how friendly everyone had been to Romney.
If any candidate had nearly as pleasant an evening as Romney, it was Rep. Michele Bachmann of Minnesota. She made maximum use of CNN's live telecast to announce she was formally entering the race. And she showed a feisty but folksy style, perhaps grabbing an audience that many once thought would go to Sarah Palin, who was not present.
Before the debate, there were signs that Romney might be pressed harder on his record, especially the Massachusetts health care law that requires people to obtain health insurance. On Sunday, Pawlenty had derided the state law as "Obamneycare," because it served as a model for Obama's 2010 health care overhaul, which many conservatives detest.
Pawlenty, the former Minnesota governor, seemed loath to revisit the issue Monday. CNN moderator John King pressed him three times to explain why he had used the term "Obamneycare." Finally, Pawlenty replied somewhat weakly that it was "a reflection of the president's comments that he designed Obamacare on the Massachusetts health care plan."
King had no more luck enticing the other six contenders to comment on Romney's former support for legalized abortion, gay rights and gun control. He has switched his position on all those issues since his days as a Senate candidate and one-term governor in liberal-leaning Massachusetts.
King asked whether anyone on the stage felt Romney's authenticity was "an issue in the campaign." After a pause, Cain said, "Case closed," and the discussion turned to other topics.
The crowded stage and tight time constraints made it difficult to tease out meaningful differences between the candidates. Bachmann said that as president, she would not interfere with states that recognize same-sex marriages.
Santorum and Romney said they support a constitutional amendment limiting marriage in all the states to one man and one woman. Bachmann jumped back in, saying she supported that too. But she had been asked earlier whether she would try to challenge state laws on a one-by-one basis, a different question.
Gingrich, the former House speaker who suffered a wholesale campaign staff defection last week, appeared rather grim and determined to show his toughness. In the opening greetings, when most candidates said little more than hello, Gingrich vowed "to end the Obama depression."
That set the tone for an evening focused on the president, leaving Romney and his fellow Republicans unbruised.
"It was a very friendly debate to say the least, which helps Romney," Republican adviser Greg Mueller said. "No one took center stage and emerged as the main challenger to Romney."
A stiff challenge to Romney from the right "is there for the taking," Mueller said, "but did not happen tonight."
Summer, fall and Christmas will pass before the Iowa caucus and New Hampshire primary take place. Romney's rivals have plenty of time to mount their attacks. But on Monday in Manchester, they showed they are not ready yet.

Just a reminder…..Mitt Romney committed his life to promote the Mormon church. At any time he can can switch to any opinion that is handed to him by the Prophet.
Or that he can decode from reading tablets in a hat.
Jon, you must be referring to the Hebrew 'decoder ring' phenomenon known as the "'Urrim V'Tummim" that ports over into Mormon theology concerning the interpretation of the 'golden plates/tablets' revealed to Joseph Smith which supports his writing of the "Book of Mormon" written in this 'holy' language of angels…no?

In other words, Republican politicians are anti-Federal intervention and pro-states' rights except when they aren't.
The situation with regard to the 2012 election is allowing all of us to make a choice between the usual Democratic mantra of a redistribution of wealth and a threat from the religious right based on prohibitions against gay marriages and abortions.
How does one locate a decision when two evils are standing up against individual freedoms? Neither side wants to stop the wars in the Middle East and both want to take on Africa.
How long does one have to wait for a solution that involves getting the government out of our job growth plans and our individual freedoms?
Do I take my chances with watching the government taking from the rich and giving it to the poor? Or do I allow this same government to direct all citizens in their choices made in their personal lives?
Neither of these choices is acceptable; but they are all that are offered. Is the concept of Americans being able to direct their own lives without the federal powers, a lost cause? When did we lose our ability to choose?
We can all work on a plan to revise the tax codes but once we turn our personal lives over to the churches, we are doomed to await another inquisition.
CHB has always leaned towards God but to allow this into our federal government is a crime against American freedoms.
That is precisely the intent Sandy. They use hot button issues to divide us while being the same on the issues that really matter. This gives the common man an illusion of choice. Some of us refer to this as the false duopoly. It's why we always vote for change and never get it. This is also why I claim voting will never solve our problems.
My only suggestion at this point is to hunker down and prepare for the worst. This ship is not changing course. We are going to hit the iceberg. Do you think Congress prepared a lifeboat for you?
