Tonight's return of Evita to Broadway means that once again Lloyd Webber has three shows running concurrently here, along with the revival of Jesus Christ Superstar that opened a couple of weeks ago and the now-and-forever Phantom of the Opera (now the longest running musical in Broadway history).
Two of those three shows, of course, were written with Tim Rice, who also has a third show on Broadway — he provided lyrics for The Lion King that's also still running here. So once again this pair, whose first production of Jesus Christ Superstar actually opened on Broadway ahead of its West End premiere, are the kings of the Broadway musical.
Mind you, they have competition from Alan Menken, who is currently also represented by three shows — last season's Sister Act, plus the screen-to-stage transfer of Newsies that I wrote about here yesterday, and the newly-previewing Leap of Faith. Menken, who of course began as a composer on the New York stage — writing the score to Little Shop of Horrors with his late co-writer Howard Ashman — subsequently became more prolific as an eight-times Oscar winning film composer, so it's good to have him back in the theatre.
Not that he's given up the movies, either: he's also scored Mirror, Mirror, a new adaptation of Snow White that opened in New York cinemas last Friday. And in a press release for it he says, "Despite my love of musicals, of both the stage and film variety, my most intense composing experience actually comes from scoring a movie. The contained period of time when I spend my days and nights living within every fraction of a second of a motion picture is an exquisite combination of being totally at the service of a director's vision and yet in a powerful position to influence and interpret the meaning of the film. I would consider my career incomplete without having the privilege of composing film scores and the thrill of hearing them fully realized thru the brilliant work of so many fantastic orchestrators, conductors and musicians."
But the theatre clearly still provides a major inspiration, conscious or not: on the film soundtrack, the songs "The Training" and "Mannequin Attack" sound very similar indeed to Sondheim's 'Stay with Me' from Into the Woods.
Talking of composers, today I'm heading to Washington DC, or rather Arlington VA across the river, to see Brother Russia, a new musical being premiered at the Signature Theatre there. It's by Dana P Rowe and John Dempsey, the American duo whose shows The Fix and The Witches of Eastwick were both originally premiered in London under the auspices of Cameron Mackintosh.
To declare an interest, Dana P (as I call him) has been a very good friend of mine ever since we first met before The Fix even opened; and no, we didn't even meet in a theatre or interview, but in a London gay bar! Last summer he vacationed (as they say here) with my partner and I in the apartment we rented in Provincetown on Cape Cod.
And in an interview on Broadwayworld last week, he spoke about his musical influences and I discovered something I never knew before about how he came to write the way he does: "I grew up playing classical piano and playing gospel piano, and, then, right before my brother went into the National Guard, he gave me a stack of albums and he said, 'Keep these safe for me and whatever you do, don't let mom and dad hear them!' And, it was just that - it was The Doors; it was Janis Joplin; it was the 2-LP set of Woodstock. I got a copy of Jesus Christ Superstar n the sly - and I had it memorized by the end of the Summer it came out, as I recall. You know, I listened to all of that stuff on headphones because my mom and dad were very, very adamant about not listening to certain kinds of music - you know, I could only listen to my Chopin and Arthur Rubinstein; which I did, sort of religiously. So, it's all the sum of my musical parts, as I say - I love all sorts of music and much of it is organic to me for one reason or another; whether it is opera and that world or whether it's the classics in the rock world. It's all a part of me."
Quotes of the week: Andrew Lloyd Webber on donating £125,000 to the Theatres Trust for their Theatres Protection Fund, quoted in The Guardian: "I'm a great lover of architecture and obviously theatres in particular. I hope my foundation's donation will help look after some of the less well-known prestigious theatres around the country and also maybe encourage other creators, writers and producers who have been lucky in the theatre, to join me in donating …I'm thinking of people who have made a decent living that can actually give something back. These buildings are crumbling. We don't want them ending up as lapdancing clubs or being pulled down."
And Lloyd Webber's wife Madeleine, who is a foundation trustee, comments: "Andrew has created a huge amount of millionaires in this business. There's an awful lot of people out there that are very well off thanks to live theatre."
Between them, Phantom of the Opera, Jesus Christ Superstar and the previewing Evita grossed $3,147,840 last week alone on Broadway. Madeleine is right: a lot of people are very well off thanks to live theatre, not least Lloyd Webber himself.

AbstractThe aim of this paper is to analyse the concept of consumer in relation to the concepts of habitus and reflexivity. We depart from the microeconomic perspective as well as rational choice models in order to question rational choice and insatiability issues. We believe that the consumer is multi-determined and multi-faceted by both the diversity of socialization and interaction contexts. The empirical analysis focuses on expenditure lists in order to identify distinctive features in accordance to descriptive variables and to emphasize the relevance of the dichotomy between practical and reflective habits. New hypotheses emerge from the analysis of the constrained relationship between consumer practices and types of reflexivity.

Daily deal: Enchanting epicure in Colorado
Rooms offer rich colors and warm accents.
Thinking of Telluride may call to mind visions of skis and snow, but this charming Colorado town is as much a summer destination as a fabled wintertime resort town. Consider it seasonally serendipitous, then, that it's exactly where you're going with today's Escape.
Let the Hotel Madeline Telluride serve as your base as you choose between a three-night culinary experience for two in May ($757) or two nights ($300) of utter relaxation in June, July, or August.
Everyone knows that good food is the linchpin of any good vacation and you won't just get good food from the Hotel Madeline's Chef Jake Linzinmeir - he'll teach you how to make it yourself. Your first option in this week's Escape is a package that includes a three-night stay in a junior suite, breakfast, a bottle of wine on the house and, oh yeah, a cooking class for two from this masterful chef.
Throughout the month of May, this Today show regular - who has also graced the pages of Bon Appétit, Food Arts, and Newsweek - is offering tips on everything from sauce and stock to Colorado farm and ranch cuisine.
But if the kitchen isn't where you're looking to spend your time this summer, Hotel Madeline's still got you covered with a two-night stay that includes breakfast for two and a $100 resort credit that you can put toward Chef Linzinmeir's renowned dining room dishes or toward your choice of spa treatment at Spa Linnea.
Spend your days mountain biking, hiking, river rafting, or checking out the town's popular warm-weather favorites - like the Telluride Bluegrass Festival or Mountainfilm in Telluride.
You see? Ski bunny or not, Telluride is the place to be when you forgo the snow.
Escape kit
- A three-night weekday or weekend stay in may for two in a junior suite ($757), including:
- Daily breakfast for two
- A cooking class for two
- Bottle of house wine
- Included overnight parking
- Or, a two-night weekday stay in June, July, or August in a junior suite ($300), including:
- Daily breakfast for two
- $100 resort credit to spend at the spa, restaurant, or on parking
- Book by 10 May

Document Type Master's Dissertation Author Goolab, Shivani email@example.com URN etd-03302011-181338 Document Title Optimization of the heterologous expression of folate metabolic enzymes of Plasmodium falciparum Degree MSc Department Biochemistry Supervisor
Advisor Name Title Prof A I Louw Committee Chair Prof L Birkholtz Committee Co-Chair Keywords
- folate biosynthesis
- recombinant protein expression
- Guanosine 5' triphosphate
- codon harmonization
- malaria
Date 2011-09-06 Availability unrestricted Abstract Malaria is a fatal tropical disease affecting billions of people in impoverished countries world-wide. An alarming fact is that a child in Africa dies of malaria every 30 seconds that amounts to 2500 children per day (www.who.int/features/factfiles). Malaria is caused by the intraerythrocytic forms of Plasmodium species, notably P. falciparum, P. vivax, P. ovale and P. malariae (Hyde 2007). The spread of drug-resistant strains, failure of vector control programs, rapid growth rate of the parasite, and lack of a vaccine have further exacerbated the effects of malaria on economic development and human health. It is therefore imperative that novel drug targets are developed or current antimalarial drugs optimized (Foley and Tilley 1998).One such target is folate biosynthesis, given that folates and their derivatives are required for the survival of organisms (Muller et al. 2009). DHFR and DHPS are currently the only folate targets exploited however, their antifolate drugs are almost useless against parasite resistant strains. As such, guanosine-5'triphosphate cyclohydrolase I (GTPCHl) among other antifolate candidates are considered for intervention (Lee et al. 2001). Knock-out studies (of P. falciparum gtpchI) resulted in the suppression of DHPS activity (Nzila et al. 2005). Additionally, gtpchI amplified 11-fold in P. falciparum strains resistant to antifolates due to mutations in dhps and dhfr and this may be a mechanism for the compensation of reduced flux of folate intermediates (Kidgell et al. 2006; Nair et al. 2008).
Over-expression of P. falciparum proteins in E. coli remains a challenge mainly due to the A+T rich Plasmodium genome resulting in a codon bias. This results in the expression of recombinant proteins as insoluble proteins sequestered in inclusion bodies (Carrio and Villaverde 2002; Mehlin et al. 2006; Birkholtz et al. 2008a).
Comparative expression studies were conducted of native GTPCHI (nGTPCHI), codon optimized GTPCHI (oGTPCHI) and codon harmonized (hGTPCHI) in various E. coli cell lines, using alternative media compositions and co-expression with Pfhsp70. The nGTPCHI protein did not express because the gene consisted of codons rarely used by E. coli (codon bias). The expression levels of purified hGTPCHI were a greater in comparison to oGTPCHI using the different expression conditions. This is because codon-harmonization involves substituting codons to replicate the codon frequency preference of the target gene in P. falciparum, as such the translation machinery matches that of Plasmodium (Angov et al. 2008). Furthermore, greater expression levels of GTPCHI were achieved in the absence of Pfhsp70 due to expression of a possible Nterminal deletion product or E. coli protein. Purification conditions could be improved to obtain homogenous GTPCHI and further analysis (mass spectrometry and enzyme activity assays) would be required to determine the nature of soluble GTPCHI obtained. To improve the expression of soluble proteins the wheat germ expression system was used as an alternate host. However, GTPCHI expression was not effective, possibly due to degradation of mRNA template or the absence of translation enhancer elements.

My homebrew Pale Ale.
Dr. Pepper 10.I like all the new "10" drinks. Especially the A&W 10.
Also, on a side note. I looked for those Steak chips at the grocery. They had a few different types of those ruffles extreme or whatever they are called, but no steak.
I swear they exist. Next time I see a bag, i'm buying a coupe more.
Costco has this Margarita machine on sale...I thought it would be a good addition to the Blackstone Margaritas and pizza tonight, let the party begin!
Oh no, you don't! You people made me get a Black Stone oven, you're NOT going to get me to buy one of these.

Periodic discharge from the vagina of blood, secretions, and shed mucous lining of the uterus (endometrium). The endometrium prepares to receive a fertilized egg by thickening and producing secretions. If the egg released by the ovary is not fertilized, the endometrium breaks down and is expelled by contractions of the uterus. The first menstruation (menarche) occurs after other changes of puberty, usually at 1113 years of age, apparently triggered by the passing of a weight threshold. Bleeding may be irregular or heavy at first. In adult women, menstrual periods begin at an average interval of 28 days and last about five days; some variation among women and in the same woman is normal. Uterine contractions are felt as cramps. The amount of blood lost is usually less than 1.7 oz (50 ml). Menstruation ends with menopause. Menstrual disorders include dysmenorrhea (painful menstruation) and amenorrhea (no bleeding), heavy or light bleeding, and uterine bleeding. See also premenstrual syndrome.

I'm thinking about making a dry well away from my house for my sump pump discharge. Oddly enough, my sump pump goes on more often then I would have expected it to (new home for us). No matter where I place the discharge hose in the back yard, that area gets pretty wet and hard for my kids and pets to play in the back yard. I was thinking about putting in a dry well at the end of the yard. I see most of the real dry wells on the market might be an overkill for what I need. 50gal well I think is too much for a sump pump discharge. I'm thinking about digging a 3x3 hole. Adding gravel to the bottom, placing a 5gal home depot bucket in the middle and adding more gravel around the bucket. Finally I would connect a 4" pvc pipe to it. The top would get covered with soil and grass. Anyone has any feedback if this will work? Thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
Can we presume that the pump is draining the foundation? It would be a mistake to trap the water in a limited "container" (5 gal. bucket plus surrounding rock-filled space) without an overflow. Also, while the hole you dig seems like it would hold a lot of water, you are filling most of the space with rock so not that much is left for water. Since the pump already comes on more than you imagined it would, chances are good that when extended heavy rains come -- even if infrequently -- there will be much more water being pumped out than you can now imagine. I predict that a much better, easier to construct, fail-safe solution could be achieved if someone had knowledge of the lay of the land and all the conditions that affect this situation (the entire path, and beyond, that water would take to leave your property.) It will be much less trouble to keep the water above ground, if possible. |

Tinnitus Treatment
Hi, I am Thomas.
After spending years looking for a good Tinnitus treatment I was beginning to lose hope. I have been suffering from that constant ringing in my ears since my early twenties because I spent the majority weekends as a teenager at rock concerts. While I was told by many people that I should be wearing ear plugs I thought I knew it all. I figured my tinnitus was my punishment for being stupid as a kid and I'd just have to live with it for the rest of my life. Fortunately for my sanity, I finally found an effective tinnitus treatment and can now hear myself think again!
The all natural ingredients in the Tinnitus Contol product have worked wonders in my life and the life of millions of others. I was lucky to have stumbled upon this great tinnitus treatment while working with a friend who said he used to suffer from tinnitus as well because of years working with loud construction equipment. After being skeptical of the effectiveness of it for months since I've tried many other supposed miracle cures before I finally gave in and gave it a try.
I was absolutely shocked at how quickly and completely this tinnitus treatment worked! For the first time in years I could fall asleep quickly because the awful ringing was finally gone! The next day I woke up to the blissful silence which I have not been able to enjoy in years. Of course, I immediately called my friend to thank him for the recommendation! He just laughed at me for not trying it earlier!
Ever since that day I've been able to sit in a quiet room without having to hear that dreadful ringing. I no longer have to turn on the television or a fan to help drown it out, I can actual enjoy the peaceful silence! This Tinnitus treatment has truly changed my life. While I wish I would have listened to my parents when they said to turn my music down as a child I am thankful to say that what I once thought was going to be a lifelong punishment is now gone for good!
The Tinnitus Contol product is amazing and since it is an all natural, homeopathic product I never have to worry that it is causing other problems while treating my tinnitus. Other than the incredible effectiveness of this tinnitus treatment one of my favorite things about it is the fact that it's so fast and easy to use. Just two quick sprays under the tongue and you're done, if you notice the ringing starting again you just repeat the process. You can use it up to three times per day but I typically just need it once and I'm good to go for the rest of the day.
Some other Tinnitus treatment
There are some herbs which have their natural benefits similar to the ones that can help people get rid of their ringing ears problem easily. Some of these include Chinese herbs, spinach, mistletoe, passion flower, fenugreek seeds, lesser periwinkle, goldenseal, sunflower seeds, sesame, black cohosh, burdock root and ginkgo-biloba. These can be easily found at any health food store or if your area has an herbalist then they can be asked regarding these.
The second way in which tinnitus relief can be experienced is by changing the diet. Avoid alcoholic drinks that are made from grain, chocolate, red wine and cheese. These should be avoided at all costs. Many experts state that tinnitus can also be triggered by consuming avocados, ripe bananas, citrus fruits, msg or monosodium glutamate, soy products or soy and even honey. It's best to avoid all of these if you have contracted the disease in the past because they can increase the chances of relapsing.
One of the best methods is to introduce exercise into your daily routine as that relieves a lot of physical stress. There is no need to practice a lot of stuff, as simple yoga and postures can help in getting rid of the problem. Another stress busting measure for tinnitus relief is to introduce meditation and pranayama into the daily routing. Just half an hour of practice can totally eliminate all stress levels experienced during the day.
I would not have believed it if I did not try it myself and even when a close friend suggested it I was still very skeptical. I'm glad I finally gave it a try and got my life back! This is the only tinnitus treatment I've ever used that was completely effective and so easy to use! I would defnitely recommend this product to anyone who is suffering from tinnitus

YAKIMA, Wash., January 14, 2013 – The holidays are finally over and, frankly speaking as a true curmudgeon, I'm glad. This last holiday season had too much mayhem for my tastes. Sadly, it started off with the Sandy Hook shooting in Connecticut, which cast a dismal cloud over the entire season. It ended with the idea that we need to employ more guns to protect our children.
Their reasoning went: "The only way to stop a bad guy with a gun is with a good guy with a gun." OK, but will somebody please tell me what "a good guy with a gun" looks like, or acts like. Was the sad case of Trayvon Martin an example of a "good guy with a gun" watching out for his neighbor's safety? How many "good guys" would we need? And, how do we determine, who's a "good guy?"
Is it the guy across the street who goes out in the hills once a month and takes target practice on glass bottles? Or, is it a person trained professionally, one who's thoroughly investigated and faces a batch of psychological tests that certifies him to be a "good guy?"
Here's a New Year's resolution for our entire country: We need to think long and hard about how we protect our children.
Speaking of resolutions, curmudgeons really don't like making them. In fact, I'm pretty sure I haven't ever succeeded in keeping one. But one finds comfort in the fact that most people don't succeed in keeping their resolutions either. If people were able to keep their resolutions, then why are there so many corpulent people in the good ole USA?
Last year I decided to try a resolution that I thought I could keep. I resolved not to go shopping the following Holiday season. It was a great resolution. This curmudgeon would avoid sales lines, crazed shoppers elbowing and hitting each other in pursuit of the "one-of-a-kind gift", crowded tables in the food court filled with screaming kids and crying babies, and I would avoid the endless circling in the parking lots like a hawk looking for dinner.
It didn't work. My record remains perfect, because I broke last year's resolution by going shopping this year.
The reality is that mostly young people are hopeful leading to the making of New Year's resolutions. They resolve to lose weight or get a job. By the middle of the year they've gained back the weight they lost by joining a gym in January and working hard until March.
Also, too many of them are still looking for jobs.
So this curmudgeon asks a simple question, "What's there to be hopeful about?" Big oil companies are still going to make billions of dollars, as will the Wall Street power brokers. Big banks are still foreclosing on homeowners at an unprecedented rate, including some homeowners who aren't even delinquent in their payments. And, our politicians still can't work together. Fact is, us older folk are not hopeful that we'll get our April Social Security checks. And, if we seniors do, it will cost you young people plenty.
I think maybe the Mayas were correct. Maybe December 21st was a good time for the earth to end.

SHERMAN, Texas -- If you've ever priced an iPad, you know how much they cost. The new models run $800.
But one "iThief" is tearing through North Texas, stealing dozens of tablets. The woman has hit 36 cities in North Texas, stealing iPads from 28 Wal-Mart stores and eight Target stores. She has stolen more than 100 iPads.
She usually strikes in the early hours of the morning. Police say she does the same thing every time, leaving groceries at the counter and walking out of the store with two or three iPads.
Her latest hit came last week at a Sherman Wal-Mart. The surveillance video shows how it happened.
The woman fills up a shopping cart with groceries. She then goes back to the electronics department and says she wants to buy three iPads. A worker then takes her to checkout.
"As they ring those iPads up, she takes that time to slip those iPads into a tote bag similar to a book bag," said Sgt. Bruce Dawsey, Sherman Police Department spokesman.
The cashier scans the iPads, and places them in a bag. As the cashier focuses on scanning items, the shoplifter places the iPads in the bag she brought into the store.
"She tells the clerk she needs to get the rest of the money," Dawsey said. "She goes outside and doesn't come back in."
Other surveillance video, from the McKinney Wal-Mart on Custer Road, shows her slipping a plastic grocery bag with two iPads into her canvas tote. This time, police say she told the clerk she was going back for two DVDs. The store's cameras caught her walking out and leaving in a black car.
The same woman is wanted in crimes all over North Texas and Oklahoma, from Ardmore to the north, to Sherman and Collin County cities like Plano, McKinney and Allen. She has also struck in Rockwall and Terrell, in Lewisville and Denton and in Cedar Hill and Corsicana.
Police say she has stolen $57,000 worth of iPads.
"For her to be successful in this number of thefts, she has discovered a way to beat the system," the police spokesman said.
And that's why police made finding this woman a priority.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Rob Ballew with the Criminal Investigation Division of the Sherman Police Department at 903-892-7246.

The Importance of Personal and Interpersonal Dynamics of the Sale
Helping a client sell their company—especially when they've been a reluctant seller in the past—takes not only experience executing a successful transaction, but also involves being a true advocate for the client—with a highly personal touch.
During the very recent sale of a client's software business for cash of multi-millions dollars, and another multi-million dollars earn out, Steven Konowitz's fifteen years of experience as a mergers and acquisition attorney for multi-national, multi-hundred million dollar companies wasn't the only reason the sale of this client's company was successful. It was equally important that Steven took time to understand his client's perspective from a personal side. As a result, he focused first on the personal and interpersonal dynamics of the sale, and then on the transaction.
This client was referred to Konowitz & Greenberg when their large Boston based, multi-national law firm was unable to negotiate the sale to the client's satisfaction. The owner had seriously considered selling his business several times, but wasn't given the personal support he needed to pull the trigger and complete the sale.
What did it take to finally close the deal? Here are five lessons learned that leveraged personal attributes and interpersonal skills on both sides of the table:
In the end, caring responsive teamwork, and personal attention that was lacking at this owner's former law firm helped this client sell his company. Remaining confident and optimistic, doggedly persistent, strategic in leveraging all of the advisors whether buyer's or seller's, and always advocating for the client's best interests was the real key to this owner's confidence in finally selling his business.
Steven Konowitz is the Managing Partner, Konowitz & Greenberg. For more information, please contact Steven at: email@example.com, or 781.237.0033 X236.

HTC EVO 4G LTE Reviews

Rated 1 out of 5Â by brobinson do not get this phone.
This phone constantly cuts off and on. The screen will lock up constantly. The battery life is great at first but quickly losses its life. The flip phone I have for work is much better than this phone will ever be.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by lsmonte350 great phone
The original evo got me hooked on HTC so I decided to try the evo 4g Lte. I haven't been at all disappointed by this phone. I have had it over two years and it runs flawlessly. I even updated to android 4.3 with exceptional customer service help from HTC. The update really brought the phone some new life! I just updated to an m8 but I gave my mother my 4glte because it is still a very decent quality phone! HTC all the way!

Rated 5 out of 5Â by ProWebWriter This Phone Made Me Decide to Stick with HTC
I've had this phone for nearly 2 years, and since I'm up for an upgrade, I have been contemplating what I want to get. For a while I entertained the thought of a Samsung Galaxy Note, but my friends with Samsung devices seem to have so many problems. Their SD card is corrupted, they looked at their phone wrong and the screen cracked, etc.
I decided that since my Evo 4G LTE had been so good to me, that I would set my sites on the HTC One. I've had absolutely NO issues with my HTC phone, so why fix something that isn't broken? I can't wait to get my new HTC and support a company with an underrated product. Let's rock!

Rated 4 out of 5Â by Raytaykay A very good phone!
This phone is awesome. Better than my last phone. This phone is awesome for media & I haven't had any problems. Also with beats audio when listening to headphones is amazing. I really love this phone & I say get it. Even in 2014 it is still good. The only thing that isn't that great, is the battery life. I wish the battery was a little bit bigger but this phone is really good.

Bethesda has announced that Dishonored has gone gold.
It was in development for more than three years at Arkane Studios, which recently released a Dishonored developer diary discussing the game's journey from conception to playable title.
Bethesda has confirmed a Dishonored release date of October 9 in North America, October 11 in Australia and Spain, and October 12 throughout Europe.
To celebrate the milestone Bethesda is giving away "an extremely limited Overseer mask" like the one pictured, as well as a signed copy of the game. The publisher felt the need to point out that the mask's not actually made of gold, in case you were wondering.

KANPUR: The trains are running full in the post-Diwali period. Seats are hardly available in the long distance trains running between Kanpur and Delhi, Hyderabad, Surat, Mumbai and other places. Rapti Sagar Express, Lucknow-Ahmedabad Express, Udyog Nagri, Udyog Karmi Express, Pushpak Express are a few trains in which no seats are available.
The situation is worst on trains running on Kanpur-New Delhi route. Passengers are unable to find reservation in trains going towards Delhi. Sources in railways informed that there is no reservation in long distance trains as the festival of Diwali had ended and the people working in other cities are going back.
There is no reservation in the trains till the end of the month. The worst hit is Shramshakti Express which originates from the Kanpur Central railway station and terminates in New Delhi. "Those working in Delhi prefer boarding Shramshakti Express for reaching Delhi and therefore, this train always run packed," said a railway official.
The situation is same even in VIP trains like Rajdhani and Shatabdi Express.
Other trains bound towards New Delhi like Rewa Express, Prayag Raj Express, Lichavi Express do not have berths.
Mahabodhi Express, Howrah-Jodhpur Express, Udyog Nagri, Udyog Kamri, Seemanchal Express are packed till the end of this month.
Meanwhile, a serpentine queue was witnessed at the booking counter on Friday. Most of the offices are to open on Monday.

She finally did get a call in July 2002. The police were at her house, tearing the place apart. Her grandparent tenants were charged with operating a meth lab. According to the police, Gramps was doing the cooking, and the oldest daughter and a boyfriend had been shoplifting cold pills.
Aquino was stunned, shocked -- poleaxed was what she was, especially when she found out what it was going to cost to get her property back in rentable condition. "I thought I could go in and clean it up myself," she says. "It was made very clear to me that that wasn't going to happen."
When a lab is raided, a private contractor is summoned to dispose of the seized chemicals and equipment. The service is paid for through a federal grant administered by the DEA; last year the feds paid $665,000 for meth-lab cleanups in Colorado, up from $485,000 in 2001. But those funds only cover the removal of the lab itself; the mess that's left behind, the chemicals soaked into carpets and drywall, are the property owner's problem.
Currently, there are no mandatory state standards for cleaning up the labs. Local governments can set their own criteria, imposing the authority they have through nuisance ordinances or other laws to require a certain level of decontamination. In Broomfield, cleanups are the province of the building department, which treats the problem as a housing-code issue.
If anyone had told Broomfield plans analyst Tom Meyers two years ago that he'd be overseeing meth-lab rehabs, "I would have laughed at the idea," he says. But in the past year, his department has supervised six cleanups, ranging in cost from $5,000 to nearly $30,000.
"Every one's a little bit different," Meyers says. "The contamination spread is dependent on two things. One, how long they've been operating in the house: The longer they're there, the more likely they are to move the apparatus around. Two, whether they have a forced-air ventilation system. Cooking near a return-air intake will distribute the contamination throughout the house."
The contaminated properties Meyers has seen range from a new house in Broomfield's upscale Broadland neighborhood to a mobile home scarcely worth the cost of cleaning. ("The owner just hauled it to a landfill," he says.) In several cases, the cook was an adult male living in his parents' house; the parents had to pay for the cleanup while Junior went to jail.
Meyers requires the owners to hire licensed, specially trained remediation firms, which determine the most effective way to clean the house. Generally, that involves airing out the property; removing stained sinks, surfaces, carpets and wallpaper; washing down floors, walls and ceilings; and encapsulating finishes, using paint, epoxy and other sealants to form a barrier against residual contamination. Samples are then tested by an independent lab to see if the cleanup meets acceptable standards for meth residue.
Aquino's house was Meyers's first meth lab. The house sat vacant for six months; Aquino says there were many delays involved in obtaining the city's approval for contractors, test results and procedures. The actual cleanup took only a few days but cost $14,000. Repairing the damage from the raid itself -- busted doors, ripped insulation, damage to the floors from garbage that sat around for weeks while Aquino was barred from entering the house -- cost another $8,000.
Her insurance wouldn't pay for the decontamination. She spent thousands of dollars on attorneys' fees to evict her tenants and seize what property they left behind, but most of it was too contaminated to be of value. "I did get a civil judgment against them, but I won't see a dime of it," she says. "The courts won't enforce it. If they have a job, you can go after them, but I can't find the girls now, and the parents are going to trial next month. This has been devastating for me."
Aquino is now renting her house again. Although the place has been fully cleaned, the stigma remains; she can only attract tenants by charging several hundred dollars less a month than she did before the raid. "When people move in, the neighbors run over and tell them the exciting news about the house," she says. "People hear 'meth lab' and they think there will be gangsters coming by."
Looking back, she doesn't know what she could have done differently; perhaps she could have obtained a special rider on her insurance policy dealing with chemical contamination, but would it hold up in a meth case? "People would be shocked if they knew how vulnerable they are," she says.
Aquino and property owners like her aren't the only ones suffering collateral damage from the labs. Neighbors trying to guard their property values and unwitting tenants who move into a poorly rehabbed former lab have taken hits, too. Gerhardt of Rocky Mountain HIDTA says he knows of at least three lawsuits so far from people who claim to have fallen ill after occupying former meth dens; they're suing the property owners for damages.
One of those suits was filed by Jean Michael, who moved into a townhouse in Estes Park because she hoped the fresh mountain air would help alleviate her asthma. The landlord assured her that the stains in the carpet were from tenants who smoked cigarettes. After Michael started having trouble breathing, she learned that her new home had previously been raided for meth.

INJURIES proved costly as Bradford Bulls fell to a 16-0 defeat at the hands of Hull Kingston Rovers this afternoon.
Skipper Matt Diskin was helped from the field nine minutes in and was followed, shortly after, by front-rower Adam Sidlow.
The pair were deemed unable to return to action and the hosting Rovers made the most of their absence, galloping into a two-try lead inside the opening quarter.
Craig Sandercock's side were 12-unanswered points to the good by half-time, despite the Bulls' best efforts.
And they moved further ahead following the restart, sealing their first two points of the 2014 campaign.

Leaks Around Skylights is not always about Water

Is Laminate Flooring Waterproof?
In short, the answer is NO, laminate flooring is NOT waterproof. There is a common misperception out there that laminate is waterproof, and I believe this is due to the fact that many customers mistakenly confuse vinyl and laminate flooring.

Due to its melamine wear layer, it has a tough finish which resists against scratches and … [Read more...]

How to Prevent Scratches in Your Hardwood Floor
Many of my customers in Westchester County ask me how to prevent scratching in hardwood flooring, so I thought I would provide some tips.

John Field 1616-1686
Tricia, A group of us are trying to prove/disprove whether John's grandson, Daniel Field, born 7 Aug 1690 in Providence is the father of my 4th great grandfather, George Field. John's son, Zachariah, was the father of Daniel. To do this we are comparing Y-chromosome DNA. The testing of George's descendants has gone well, but we can't seem to find male descendants of John to have tested. If you know of any male descendants of John who still carry the Field surname, please let me know. Charles Field

The pros and cons of Battle.net {WoW}
Oct 15th 2009 3:03PM I'm in the same boat as you are for my WoW acct being more secure then my online banking.
On the note of security through obscurity, even with authentication, your acct is still only as secure as you are intelligence. There was a recent study for bank security that recommended that you have a dedicated machine (or Live CD) for bank access to prevent keyloggers, real time tunnels with packet spoofing (which can hijack your log in, as the hijack would snag the Auth Code and use it in real time), and other security hazards from compromising your acct.
Basically, what I am trying to say here is that users still need to act intelligently with their computers - more technology is only added protection against simple attacks, not immunity. With all the information in one acct, the danger is not different then on separate accts. A compromised machine will give them all the access to your accts either way.

Class specific buffs become craftable items {WoW}
Aug 27th 2009 2:27PM Supported point - the Priest and Druid buff are the same as the *untalented* versions. The Inscription Fort will be 165. A priest giving the buff will have it talented, for 214 Stamina. Same kind of math for a talented Druid buff. The BoK is no longer talented, and so any paladin can provide the full 10%.
In short, this isn't a reason not to bring the class, just a reason no to be total lacking critical buffs otherwise.

I went with 5 or so guildies and we picked up 7 or so (collectively) killing the trash to the first boss, and the respawns after we knocked out AQ20. Each color counts towards the total.
WoW Rookie: Will my computer run WoW? {WoW}
Jan 29th 2009 12:33AM The idea that the human eye can not track things going faster then 30 frames per second, or that it will not make a difference is ludicrous. Seriously, take a moment to think about it - most classic 2D fighters (Street Fighter) require that you hit a button as a reaction in a *3 frame* window, at 24 frames per second. Play on a computer that runs consistently and *only* 60 frames per second, and tell me that it does not feel smoother, that your eyes don't feel more relaxed, and that the picture quality is not better. I hate to reference Wikipedia, but it is late:
I have seen other studies that support that as well. The effects of the refresh rate going up is positive (with diminishing returns) up to (depending on your specific eye) 85 hz.
Also, with regard to the shadows - The look pretty, but the more shadows, and details that you are shadowing, the more strain on the card. For a simple shadow the screen has to be processed effectively twice. With shadows all the way up, the work load on your computer is increased by an order of magnitude.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Lincoln!
Facts about Lincoln
- Breed: American Pit Bull Terrier Mix
- Color: Gray/Silver/Salt & Pepper - With White
- Age: Adult
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Male
Lincoln's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, good with kids, good with dogs, and good with cats.
Meet Lincoln... He is a 2 year old Pit-bull that was found emaciated and cold near Grant Park. A good Samaritan took him in and contacted PITC for help. This sweet loving boy is very outgoing, smart and loves to play. He gets along with cats and other dogs. He currently is living with his fabulous foster and a small dog and cat. He is fully vetted. neutered, microchipped and is currently being treated for heartworms. This boy is ready to find his forever family where he can receive the endless amount of love he deserves. Wouldn't this big hunk be a great addition to your family??
Other Pets at Pitties in the City
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Lincoln, a Dallas American Pit Bull Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a American Pit Bull Terrier for sale in Dallas, or seeking a American Pit Bull Terrier dog from a breeder in Dallas.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Dallas already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Dallas breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even American Pit Bull Terrier breeders who help with American Pit Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Dallas paves the way for another one to be saved.
