Posada Margherita Restaurant
Posada Margherita Hotel
Tulum, Quintana Roo, Mexico
This, intimate, open-walled Italian restaurant forgoes menus and sticks with a consistent rotation of a handful of pastas made in-house and two to three dishes built around fish caught that day. Each meal begins with an antipasto platter that includes bruschetta, focaccia, and cauliflower. The candlit dining area, which has wooden tables and tile flooring that meets the white sand of the beach, can get crowded, especially at night, but the open walls and high thatched ceiling compensate. Decor includes modern takes on indigenous artwork, including wide-eyed ritual masks. The wine list includes a selection of chianti and South American offerings.
Insider Tip:
Owner Alessandro Carozzino takes great pride in the creation of the day's menu and has been known to frown on requests to alter dishes to preference.

Routing Switchers
Oct 5, 2010 1:25 PM, By Bennett Liles
The current market for routing switchers is a very dynamic place, with the explosion of digital video formats including HDCP and EDID links while new control and configuration options have been added to the mix. Expandability and a trend toward modular internal media conversion have been balanced by new options in redundant power and hot-swappable components. The models we cover here are representative of these latest developments, and they range in size to suit any mission from presentation to plant-wide routing.
The new HDMI-UTPRO-0808 from AMX can route eight HDMI 1.3 sources to monitors nearby through HDMI cable or over much longer distances on twisted pair with full HDCP compliance. For the longer distances, the unit uses Valens' HDBaseT technology to support transmission of uncompressed 1920x1080p, audio, and control data up to 100 meters. Using AMX native NetLinx, the UTPro receivers offer remote display control through IR or bidirectional RS-232 serial at various baud rates, and the Ethernet port provides control by way of an embedded web interface. AMX HDCP InstaGate technology offers low-latency switching of HDCP-protected content.
The 3D compatible 4x4 HDMI Matrix Switch from Black Box Network Services has signal boosters on its ports to amplify HDMI signals for transmission with delivery of 12-bit deep color up to 60ft. The rackmountable unit provides a video bandwidth up to 6.75Gbps for support of resolution up to 1080p. It can be controlled from the front panel, an IR remote, or an RS-232 connection to an AMX, Crestron, Control4, or other third-party controller. It also supports HDMI audio formats including Dolby TrueD and DTS-HD.
The Fiberlink Matrix OM32 from Communications Specialties is an optical matrix switch configurable up to 32x32. Also available in nonmatching input and output channel capacities, it can be configured to mix and match single and multimode fiber modules with reclocking of SMPTE SDI and CSI data rates. The unit is fully SMPTE 297-2006 compliant, can be fitted with ST or LC fiber connections, and can be remote controlled by RS-232 or through a built-in Ethernet-based GUI. Configuration, firmware updates, and GUI upgrades can be made on a USB port. The front panel of the 3RU chassis is dominated by dual color-illuminated buttons providing preset store, recall, and edit capabilities.
At the top of the DigitalMedia matrix switcher line from Crestron, the DM-MD32X32-RPS provides advanced HDCP support, EDID resolution management, CEC signal management, and USB HID signal routing. The unit is field configurable for handling up to 32 sources in a wide array of signal types. Built-in redundant power supplies are included for mission-critical applications, and the capability can be expanded to 160 outputs over STP copper or on fiber by linking additional units. Audio switching includes video follow and audio breakaway with simultaneous stereo and surround sound from the same HDMI source. Ethernet routing adds to the switching capability.
Available in a range of configurations from 4x4 to 80x80 with intelligent modular design, the MXP series digital routing switchers from DVIGear offer a number of digital display features including fast switching and advanced EDID management with 100 memories—50 of which can be user-defined. Also featured are multiple digital signal format cross-platform routing, 50-meter cable compensation on all inputs, reclocked outputs for lower jitter, control over RS-232/RS-422 and LAN, breakaway remote-controllable front panels, redundant power, and a backlit LCD control panel. Digital end points for these routers are available as copper and optical extenders. The MXP series supports all single-link DVI resolutions up to 1920x1200 and 2048x1080.
Among the many fiber-optic, digital, and analog routing switcher products from Extron Electronics, the Fox 4G Matrix 320x represents the company's largest fiber-routing solution with expandability from 16x16 to 320x320 in a modular frame designed with 20 board slots. It handles standard-definition video and high-resolution computer video, DVI-D, and multirate SDI with bandwidth capability up to 4.25Gbps. It features hot-swappable I/O boards, power supplies, and a fan. Configurable in any combination of multimode or single-mode I/O boards, the unit has 164 memory presets for saving and recalling commonly used input and output ties. The switcher can be monitored through front- and rear-panel RS-232 ports as well as by Ethernet, and an additional control option is provided by its compatibility with the MKP 3000 X-Y remote control panel.
Up to 10 For-A MFR-5000 series routing switchers can be linked for heavy-duty applications with automatic multiformat support in HD, SD, ASI, and RS-422 signals. Up to eight front-loading input boards can be installed in each 8RU chassis, and each of these is configured in units of 16 channels for a total of 1204 channels. For reliability in mission-critical applications, options for redundancy include CPU boards, a power source, and networking. If one of the multiple main units goes down, another can continue to operate. The settings and alarms are shown on the front-panel LED display, and there are a number of switcher panels available for remote operation.
Capable of demuxing embedded audio on input signals, routing them independently, and multiplexing any audio signal in the router on any HD, SD, or 3GB digital video output, the Platinum MX router from Harris uses front-loading, hot-swappable modules. The new 8-channel frame sync card allows up to eight wild video signals to be synchronized to house reference without using external frames or wiring. Supporting coax and fiber connectivity, the unit offers increased tie-line capability and new configuration software. For enhanced third-party-equipment support, a names-based protocol has been added. Centrio modules in the Platinum MX frame provide multiviewer support for all input signals with up to 32 picture-in-picture images controlled by the router system.
With the ability to switch between copper and fiber I/O without using external media converters, the Draco Major routing switch from IHSE USA can be used in a number of different modes for varying missions. It can be configured as a crosspoint switch with 32 video sources to as many as 16 displays; as a KVM switch, the unit can exhibit partner viewing by reproducing one screen's content to many others. Optional redundant power supplies can be added for reliability, and user and access-rights management can be configured to 1000 levels. The Draco Major is capable of online upgrades, and it is remote-controllable via serial or web interface.
Sierra Video Alta Pro wideband routing switchers from Kramer Electronics offer 600MHz RGBHV and RGB signal routing, employing single-board architecture for reduced frame size, maximum reliability, and dramatic energy conservation. They are designed for demanding RGBHV, RGB, and analog HD signal routing applications and are available in 12x8, 12x4, 8x8, and 8x4 configurations with optional stereo audio. One member of the line, the 88HB5S, is an 8x8 RGBHV switcher controllable via RS-232, RS-422, and Ethernet. The Expand On Demand instant field upgrade allows expansion from component/RGB to RGBHV and/or to a larger Alta Pro configuration by calling the factory and purchasing the upgrade.

Hedge Funds
Charlie Gasparino: SAC Capital Busting Its Ass To Prevent Redemptions
By Bess LevinAccording to Fox Business reporter Chaz Gasparino, the hedge fund has been working overtime to convince investors ahead of the February 15 deadline for submitting redemption notices to stick with Steve. With a moderately to majorly amazing sales pitch:
Sayeth Chaz:
"SAC senior officials are scrambling to prevent massive redemptions from the $14 billion hedge funds and are currently contacting and holding one-on-one meetings with large investors.* Basically they're saying don't pull out, we think we have this under control. They're saying despite everything you've heard, the criminal charges against [Matthew] Martoma, the investigation that involves Steve Cohen…they think Steve Cohen is going to be OK. Internally, they're saying we may get a large fine, we think we are going to get a large fine, we think we are facing charges but we are not going to be indicted so keep your money with us."

*Please say they've set up one of those telemarketing phone centers with employees wearing headsets and computers rigged so that for every 15th investor, it's Cohen himself who talks to them.
Comments (28)
And if yet again for the cheap seats, make sure it's clear that the quote is attributable to Gasparino, and not to SAC.
No shit.
Steve: "… will I pay the fine myself? … You mean me, as in SAC Capital? … Yes they are synonymous … Now hold on, you signed up for 3-and-50 … No I will not pay fines out of pocket … Get the fuck out of my fund!"
IR Head: "Oh, Steve."
Pretty sure everyone was tipped off to that by the line "SAYETH CHAZ"
"[W]e think we are facing charges but we are not going to be indicted."
Man, if I had a nickel for every time I had to say that, I'd be in the 3c7 fund by now.
I've.. got..two tickets to paradise…..!
-Stevie Money
I think your brain has a thick candy shell
Un pasaporte para Esteban Cohen, por favor.
Wait a sec, Chazza. I thought the funds were mostly SAC's personal money. Are you trying to tell us that SAC is busting his a$$ to stop himself from making a sizeable redemption?
"Basically they're saying don't pull out"
I once said that, big mistake.
-Mrs. Shazar
They really just need to raise money for a new special situations fund, call it AMOTRAM, that will shoot the total balance to a cayman account and cross its fingers.
well at least two tickets…
"from" the cheap seats…..
Ooooh….double fallopian tube BURN!
-Easy Peasy Leviney Squeezy
Cohen on Line 1 to anonymous investor:
"Yes, I've heard about the notion that I could be indicted as head of SAC. I'm not flattered, but it really is a bad idea. Part of the reason is that I am indeed the World's Worst Administrator — and that does matter. Someone else can do the legal work — but an administrative job requires making hiring and firing decisions, it means keeping track of many things, and that, to say the least, is not my forte…employees inside my business can of course have even more influence — but only if they're good at a very different kind of game, that of persuading the investors in behind-closed-doors discussion. And everything I know about myself says that I'm not very good at that game. By my reckoning, then, any redemption , no matter how small, would actually reduce my influence, leaving me unable to say publicly what I really think and all too probably finding myself unable to make headway in internal debates."
Tony Danza really let himself go..
you can say ass here
Frankly, kind of wary of a man who won't do so, regardless of the forum.
You're telling me. Now gimme back my marker.
Better that than letting people bust in your ass, Gaspo.
"Let's just say that we're not worried about the Federal government pressing charges, based on a new hire we've got coming in . . . right around the time the President appoints the new Secretary of the Treasure," *wink* *wink*
These pretzels are making me thirsty
My dear Mr. Cohen:
We would like to speak with you about our premium business relocation service. Do contact us at your earliest convenience.

Leaving your money with this sinking ship is inviting destitution. The gang in charge are heading to the Big House.

The argument that a rich person should sacrifice funds simply because they're already rich is just something non-rich people say. But I'm not rich, so I'm going to say it.
By putting up a Balboa-style fight over the specific value of what will inevitably be an enormous contract that should secure and comfort his family for multiple generations to come, Drew Brees has very little to gain and a lot to lose.
The latest report out of the Bayou is that Brees turned down a contract that would have made him the highest-paid player in NFL history. And while there are several different ways to measure a contract's overall worth and this is probably a sample of propaganda from the team's camp, it doesn't bode well for the image Brees has created for himself.
He is Mr. New Orleans. He helped save the city from post-Katrina turmoil. He's always been about more than the game, more than the money. At least that's the way he's been pitched to us by national magazine cover stories and NFL Cares promos.
The Saints and Brees are reportedly $5 million apart. That's a lot of money. But when you put it into context, is it worth the reputation damage? That same reputation that might very well make him that much money and more in retirement? Brees is the face of that city. Between the NFL, speaking engagements and endorsements, he already makes north of $30 million per year.
But it's completely possible that this episode could ultimately cost him more than it makes him. He has leverage, of course. He can strong-arm the team into paying him $16 million guaranteed for one season under the franchise tag or caving to his demands by paying him $20-plus million a year but having the luxury to manipulate the annual numbers in order to free up money for the immediate future.
As ESPN's Pat Yasinskas so eloquently put it yesterday, "the man who made the New Orleans Saints could end up breaking them." The franchise tag or an out-of-this-world salary could force the team to let key free agents such as Carl Nicks and Marques Colston walk while handcuffing them on the open market.
I'm not saying Brees isn't worth every penny he's demanding. The guy set the single-season passing yards record while completing a ridiculous 71.2 percent of his passes. He's still in his prime, and, at 33, he probably has a handful of elite years left in him. But if Brees already possesses every dollar he and his kids will ever need, and if winning another Super Bowl is his chief objective, and if he wants to maintain his pristine and highly marketable image, he'd be smart to suck it up and take the record-breaking deal that is reportedly on the table.
Poor guy…

There are some problems while attaching xrefs in Autocad 2013 it shows "eduplicaterecords" error and "Invalid" while attaching manually. But the functionality is working good in Autocad 2012 and below editions of Autocad.
This error is getting resolved when i use "audit" command for Autocad 2013. So i want to customize this command.
Please help.
I have this error while attaching xrefs with the code db.AttachXref() method. This works fine for Autocad versions 2012,11,10. But it is not working for 2013. It works fine for autocad 2013 when i do audit command from autocad menu.
So thats why i wan to customize audit command in .net before attaching xref with db.AttachXref() menthode.
Check the AutoCAD 2013 board, there have been problems reported with XREFs so I don't think its something in your programming. I recommend waiting until the first SP to see if it has been adressed before trying to hard on a work-around.
Yes I will. I managed to this by giving error message to user. Thanks

I haven't had a period in 4 months but I still get the phantom periods as well as irritability, sweaty, nausea, anxiety,ect..does any of this go away or will this just keep going until i reach full menopause and possibly even after that? I have good days but there are still bad days and I would like to be able to get up and not have to worry what the day will bring. I want to feel normal for once and I am hoping I will after this is over but for now I am not too sure of what to expect. |

I get some hot flashes sometimes - but that is all I get. You can not tell, unless I am ripping some piece of clothing off. :) I feel fine. Great. I am increasing my weight bearing exercises to help with bone health. I also take magnesium (The Magnesium Miracle by Dr. Carolyn Dean). And Iodoral iodine along with 200 mcg of selenium. EVERY DAY. Then, there is the Vit D3 with K2. Vit C far away from the iodine. CoQ10. Resveratrol/grape seed/blueberry tabs. Gingko biloba. Sometimes some garlic. I just bought some cinnamon with milk thistle. My triglycerides always run high. I bought a blood test online and want to take the cinnamon for awhile to see if it helped at all. But, I feel no different. Well, there is NO PMS. No bloat. No ruined clothing. No buying pads/tampons. Free at last. Good luck and good health to you!! |

Following the brand conversion of existing hotels, Starwood Hotels & Resorts Worldwide Inc. ( HOT ) will now end September 2012 with two new Aloft properties. The properties are Aloft San Francisco Airport hotel and Aloft Nashville Music Row. Meanwhile, there are several other properties lined up to be converted into the Aloft brand in Tucson, Calgary and Atlanta. While the makeover of an existing Clarion property to a 253-room Aloft San Francisco hotel took 14 months to complete, the conversion of the Hotel Indigo Nashville Music Row to the 139-room Aloft Nashville hotel needed just a month. The San Francisco Airport property enjoys a prime location, adjacent to mass-transit options into San Francisco as well as one of the world's major air-travel hubs. Apart from this, the hotel is easily accessible from various corporate hubs, making it strategically fit for repositioning. The Aloft Nashville Music Row, which is the first non-Starwood-owned Aloft conversion hotel also marks the brand's entry to Nashville market which will likely create a strong guest base. Starwood set a trend in hotel designs with Aloft, which spread its operations globally with more than 60 hotels opened since its launch in June 2008. In its four years of journey, Aloft has been on an uphill ride in terms of guest satisfaction scores, reflecting the brand's strength and growing popularity. In the second quarter of 2012, RevPAR growth in Aloft was 8.7% or 9.7% in constant dollars, the highest among all the other brands. Aloft as a brand name has also earned recognition as it offers an urban concept for modern travelers seeking a unique experience. Its affordable price point in the mid-market hotel category is another reason for the burgeoning popularity. Starwood is ideally targeting two types of prospects for the Aloft conversion. First are the well positioned, older hotels set up in the '70s or '80s, and second are the well-to-do independent hotels in need for a stronger brand. Starwood which competes with the likes of Marriott International Inc. ( MAR ), currently retains a Zacks #2 Rank, which translates into a short-term Buy rating. We are also maintaining our long-term Neutral recommendation on the stock.

I'm trying to do this for my son. I want to remove ALL the grayish areas so it'll be just black/white. NO gray areas at all (like a coloring book page).
I have PSP 7 and I remember doing something like this.....but it's been a couple of years since I did it. I've just recently installed PSP on this computer, so it's new to me (again)! lol Can someone give me SIMPLE instructions on how to do it? |
Follow-Up Postings:
Try using the magic wand - tolerance about 20 and no feather. Click on all the black lines - hold the shift key as you click to get all the lines - delete key if you make a mistake. Now go SELECTIONS - INVERT Press delete (keyboard). You should just have the black outline now with no shaded area. Hope this helps. |
You mean like this? There has got to be an easier way to do it but I don't know of it right now. |

Yep..just like that! lol I was trying to follow Jacksmum's instructions, but still trying to figure out where I'm suppose to set the tolerance! I'm soooo much a dummy when it comes to PSP! Urlee..can you tell me exactly how you did it? I don't know (or remember) a thing about the tools and how to use them. Thanks!! |
~Urlee~ :) |
Forgot to add-----After you click around each box, you right click to make the marching ants come so it is selected to delete. ~Urlee~ |
- Posted by Country_Bumpkin_AL (My Page) on Tue, Nov 8, 05 at 19:41
Thanks again!!! |
LOL Use Urlee's way it's much easier!! I didn't have time to check my instructions before writing them so I just did it then and it's a bit fiddly and the lines aren't a clear and crisp as Urlee's so ignore my instructions. HUGS |
Sue, For one, it will work but I'd hate to have to do it my way for a bunch as it is time consuming and your patience tested."lol" Like I say, there must be a better way but off hand, that is what I came up with. :) ~Urlee~ |

My wife were made to feel very welcome by the desk service persons upon our initial arrival which, of course, colored our overall liking for Candlewood Suites.
Not bad but room for improvement
January 12, 2015
Upon check-in, the heater in the room was turned off (in winter!) and the room was unacceptably cold. It took nearly 6 hours to reach a comfortable temperature and even then the fan with in the unit barely worked. Then a few days later, all TV channels stopped working and I was told by the front desk that there was no ETA for it to be fixed. Thankfully this hotel was nearly half the cost of other area hotels, otherwise I would be very disappointed. Other than those issues the room, kitchen, bathroom, and bed was perfectly acceptable.

Freedom of expression at risk in Tunisia
By Yasmine Najjar in Tunis for Magharebia – 26/04/2013
Tunisia's highest court on Thursday (April 25th) failed to review, as expected, the jail terms given to two men for publishing cartoons of the Prophet Mohammed, their lawyer told AFP.
The suspension created confusion in a controversial case that many activists view as a major setback for freedom of expression in post-revolutionary Tunisia.
"I was surprised to discover that the court has not acted because the demand for an appeal was mysteriously withdrawn," Ahmed Mselmi told AFP.
Jabeur Mejri and his co-defendant Ghazi Beji, who fled abroad and whose whereabouts are unknown, were sentenced in a closed hearing in March 2012 to seven and a half years in jail for "publishing works likely to disturb public order" and "offence to public decency".
Tunisian rights defenders are sounding the alarm over the state of political freedoms in the country. Last week in Tunis, they presented testimonies of journalists, activists and artists at a seminar organised by Amnesty International.
"Freedom of expression in Tunisia and the countries of the so-called Arab Spring is threatened due to violations committed against journalists, activists, artists and others," Lotfi Azzouz, the head of Amnesty International Tunisia, said at the April 17th event.
"This event is about launching a national campaign for the respect of freedom of expression in Tunisia. We have circulated a petition to be delivered to the National Constituent Assembly and the presidency of the government," he said.
Journalist Sofien Ben Farhat complained that he had received death threats.
Tunisia's media sector is also threatened with a legal vacuum and lack of protection.
"There are efforts by the government to replace Decree Law 115 that organises and regulates the freedom of press with another law that could drag journalists to prison," stressed Kamel Labidi who presided over the National Committee of Information and Communication Reform (INRIC) after the revolution. "This law would be a stain on the forehead of the National Constituent Assembly if it agrees to ratify it as a law replacing Decree Law 115."
Legal and media experts who partook in the national consultation on the legal framework governing the media sector agreed last year that Decree Laws 115 and 116 suffered from gaps and legal loopholes. These laws, prepared by the High Commission for Realisation of the Revolutionary Goals, contain serious deficiencies and risks to free press, they concluded.
"There is no room to legally activate Decree Law 115 because of what it contains in terms of gaps, ambiguities and inconsistencies. It suffers from weaknesses in methodology and wording and a lack of knowledge of penal law and procedures," commented lawyer and university professor Bechir Ferchichi.

People of Tunisia free! No America and no Qatar!
Free expression, free criticism but respectfully, not pleasantry, sarcasm and derision of Sharia on TV.
Too late—the worm is in the apple. Tunisian friends, you have offered the enemies of freedom handcuffs, and they are being clamped down on you. One piece of advice: adopt a low profile and wait for better days. You cannot do anything for the time being lest you pointlessly risk your lives. Always keep the Algerian example in mind.

I notice that you are a newly registered member. Welcome. Provide some more info on you member page like where do you live - Alaska, Hawaii, or Maine. Helps in diagnosing problems. My best guess #1 is a flea beetle, #2 aphid or vice versa because I think I got them reversed. A light sprinkling of Sevin or Rotenone dust will cure the problem. Good luck, Gary |
Sevin kills bees. Not just the bee that visits your garden, but all the bees in the beehive when that bee returns to the colony. Try something else. |

Five Arroyo Grande High players are named to the San Luis Obispo County team for the third annual FCA All-Star Football Classic. The game is set for Saturday, June 1 at Lompoc High School.
The Eagles will be represented by All-League First Team defensive lineman Ian Malott, First Team linebacker Zach Diaz, First Team offensive lineman Wyatt Cox, Second Team defensive lineman Chris Addy and wide receiver Joseph Gonzalez.
"To be picked for this team is remarkable. I mean I don't think I've ever had this much feeling for the game," said Cox, a 6-2, 250 pound offensive lineman, who helped the Eagles produce 317 yards of total offense per game.
The Eagles are honored for the opportunity to hand Northern Santa Barbara County its first loss in the third year of the event.
"We have a lot of guys that are quick, athletic and I think our quickness will be our strong point," said Gonzalez, who caught 23 passes for 242 yards and one touchdown in his senior year. He also rushed for 158 yards and 2 more touchdowns.
Arroyo Grande is coming off an 8-3 season that saw the Eagles share the Pac 7 League title.
Malott, Diaz and Addy were the Eagles' leading players on defense. The 6-2, 230 pound Diaz recorded 87 tackles, 3 interceptions and recovered 2 fumbles. Malott, who's 5-9, 176 pounds, registered 74 tackles, 13 tackles for loss and a team-best 10 sacks. Addy, a 5-11, 185 pound defensive lineman, tallied 59 tackles for the Eagles.
The Eagles are sponsored by Mullahey Ford. The car dealership donated $2,500 toward the $20,000 car raffle that will be awarded during halftime of the All-Star Game. "It's an opportunity to be involved with the program. It's a great opportunity for these seniors to play one final game. It's about the students raising money for the schools and getting some well needed equipment," said Doug Epley, the general manager of Mullahey Ford.
Game and raffle tickets are available at the fifteen participating schools. All proceeds go directly into the schools' athletic deparments. In two years, the event has raised a combined $280,000 for area programs.

The battle began by chance, at the 2002 Burning Man festival, when a twenty-something man costumed as Jesus crossed paths with a stranger in a Satan suit near the ice-vending tent in Center Camp.
Jesus struck the one-legged "leaping crane" pose made famous in The Karate Kid, then channeled Bruce Lee, unleashing a high-pitched, howling "Keee-yai!"
Seconds later, Christ and the Antichrist exchanged mock blows, kicks, martial-arts-flick sound effects and taunts in the midst of a rapidly encircling crowd.
"Come on, Jesus, admit it," Satan shouted. "You fornicated with that whore, Mary Magdalene, didn't you?"
"That was 2,000 years ago, Lucifer. Will you just give it a goddamned rest?"
Satan looked shocked at such language coming from the Son of God.
"Nice," cried the horned one, twisting into a spinning back kick. "Really fucking spiritual, Jesus."
The biblical combatants were but two of nearly 30,000 souls who traveled deep into the Black Rock Desert of northern Nevada to participate in this year's Burning Man, the festival's thirteenth incarnation and the biggest yet. Subjective in the extreme, the Burning Man experience is tricky to translate into words. It is a huge, countercultural costume ball, a psychedelic playground and a grand experiment in a temporary community with a functional barter economy. It is a test of endurance in a harsh environment and an incomparable showcase of large-scale, mind-bending installation art.
"Explain Burning Man to someone who's never been? Ha! Good luck," says 33-year-old Dave Colberg, a Denver resident who is known at the festival as Amadeus Tonguefingers. "Basically, you build the most remarkable, eccentric, erotic, artistic and inventive city you could ever imagine, and you build it in a week, in a very demanding environment...and then you tear it down and burn it."
Colberg works for a local fabric-restoration company, repairing furniture and clothing damaged by fire. "Oh, the irony," he says -- because among, and perhaps above, everything else, Burning Man is an elaborate occasion to indulge one's inner pyromaniac.
"My first year at Burning Man, we recklessly set fire to our camp offal and created an explosion," says Julie Chase, aka "Uberblonde," 29, who completed her master's thesis on Burning Man at the University of Colorado in May. "We were uninformed and irresponsible, and after decades of good suburban breeding, it was exactly what I needed. I experienced a new kind of collective power in the act of blowing shit up."
Held the week before Labor Day on the perfectly flat, lifeless, cracked-earth hardpan of a dry, prehistoric lake bed roughly 120 miles northeast of Reno, Burning Man's ephemeral city traditionally draws most of its populace from the San Francisco Bay area, which is the nearest major urban center, eight hours away by car. That held true this year as well, although an informal survey of license plates and "So where are you from?" queries at the festival showed that Colorado is running a clear, if distant, second in the home-state category.
"It's quite remarkable how much the regional Colorado Burning Man culture has grown in the last three years," says Chase. "When I first went to Burning Man four years ago, there were very few large-scale theme camps or 'art cars' out of Denver. This year, they were everywhere."
Burning Man's layout has evolved into a massive, 260-degree arc of encampments organized along a grid of streets collectively known as Black Rock City. The city's main promenade leads outward from Center Camp to the festival's namesake, a three-story wooden effigy packed with explosives. Beyond this gigantic matchstick man lies "the playa," the open-desert landscape that Burning Man's installation artists employ as their blank canvas.
A sign planted by some merry prankster way beyond Black Rock City's developed limits reads: "Coming soon, Playa Meadows! Ranch style homes in the mid-300s."
Theme camps and villages make up the hundreds of distinct neighborhoods within Black Rock City. The 2002 lineup included the Hee Bee Gee Bee Healers, a tribe of Burners from Boulder who, in their third year at Burning Man, erected a highly decorative and functional "healing tent." Offered within were free massages, body painting, Tarot readings, reiki energy work and nutrient-loaded "smart drinks."
As in years past, however, by far the most impressive Denver-driven theme village was Disturbia, population about 150, founded in 1998 by Lizard Man, a Boulder space scientist who analyzes particles from other planets for NASA (really), and Teiwaz, a San Francisco dot-commer (now ex-dot-commer). The two met in 1997, when they both attended Burning Man for the first time.
"I was living in Salt Lake City that summer, and I met this guy through the ride board on the Burning Man Web site who said he was driving through from Boulder, so he could pick me up," says Teiwaz, 29. "We hit it off and turned out to be great friends, and as we were leaving the festival that year, we were looking at all the theme villages, and we more or less just said to one another, 'We can do this.'"

I was looking at my annuals yesterday and noticed that they are looking better than ever. They actually looked a bit ragged in late summer/very early fall, particularly after Irene. But the mild humid conditions in October, coupled with the complete absence of anything close to a frost so far has really allowed them to thrive. I moved the impatients that were potted into full October sun, and they seem to really like that. My annuals have been growing now for almost 6 months since I planted them in early May. Half a year? It feels like we have had a very very long growing season. I hope these mild conditions continue into November. It might be nice to keep those annuals blooming nicely into the dreary dark days of November that lay ahead. |

Yes, it's been a banner year for annuals. For me, the highlights are the tender sages I splurged on last spring - they're ridiculously happy. Wendy's Wish, a dark, dusky red, is really beautiful, and Coral Nymph is starting to look like it might become a pest - seedlings are popping up and blooming in the brick patio. Self-sown sweet alyssum is on its second generation, and Verbena bonariensis is going strong. There are also surprise perennial come-backs, like balloon flower and lavender, which I thought were finished weeks ago, but the annuals are really stealing the show at this point. |
Most of my annuals are still beautiful too. Cleome, Alyssum, Verbena bonariensis, Melampodium, and Zinnias all looking good. The Tithonia is over 8 feet tall, but getting a little ragged. Cosmos has mostly gone by. California poppy foliage looks good, but there are few blooms. The Salvia is the highlight. A mix of Salvia 'Yvonnes', 'Coral Nymph' and 'Lady in Red'. Red, pink and white, one of my favorite color combos. |

My marigolds are surviving in some areas and not in others(I pulled some out today), dahlias are doing well and also the new guinea impatients are looking good as ever! |
Nice thread. I have some neglected nasturtiums in hanging baskets that don't look too bad. The whiskey barrel looks pretty good. But I've been looking at two perennial beds that are done, wishing I had some annuals for some color along the edges that are visible from the house. I'm thinking zinnias or marigolds for next year. Just want something low. |

I don't do a lot of annuals--just a few in containers each year--but they're all still blooming non-stop. I always have New Guinea impatiens in a large container at the northeast corner of the house with blue lobelia tucked around them. They couldn't be happier with all the rain we've had. The ageratum & million bells/calibrachoa weren't nearly as happy this year so I'm guessing they like it hot and dry. I'm hoping to add more annuals next year once my winter sown perennials are established. Yvonne's salvia is finally blooming and looking so pretty! |
