To gain my alcohol expertise, I haven't attended a cheesy bartending college or struggled through a twelve-step program (yet). My only credential -- my only excuse -- is that the imbibing of alcoholic beverages is one of my favorite pastimes. Which makes me an expert. Or close enough.
I can certainly say with some authority that nothing, absolutely nothing, tastes better on a hot summer evening than a cold drink. And while I know that everyone has a favorite place to do this -- often sucking down brewskis on the front porch, watching the neighbors water their grass with an eyedropper -- this town boasts many spots that offer cocktails worthy of consideration. From my lips to yours.
First stop: Cuba Cuba (1173 Delaware Street, 303-605-2822). At this "Buena Vista Social Club" in the Golden Triangle, ceiling fans rotate slowly, infectious salsa rhythms play, and the drinks are sugary sweet. On a recent visit, we grabbed a tall table in Cuba Cuba's pastel bar and started off with a tall pitcher of mojitos: mint-infused rum, sugar, a splash of lime and rum, rum and more rum, all crushed together with ice. A tall rocks glass full of heaven, really.
"It's such a refreshing drink, perfect for the summer," says owner Kristy Socarras Bigelow. "We get a lot of people who come in specifically for our mojitos. It took me a couple of years to come up with the exact recipe, but I think that we were the first to really do them well in Denver."
After moving outside to Cuba Cuba's covered patio, we next selected a pitcher of brandy-red sangría. And then another. After that, I'm not sure...which is why you shouldn't forget to eat some of Cuba Cuba's deep-fried plantains served with garlic-citrus mojo or a big serving of shrimp ceviche. (Frankly, I can't remember if I did.) Because these drinks are strong -- and I mean strong.
My summer drinks often start out with fruit juice. And no place in town does more with fruit juices than the new High Street Speakeasy (3862 High Street, 303-298-9333), which is tucked into the Cole neighborhood. That's where you'll find my current favorite bartender, Kalib -- he goes by only one name, explaining, "People know what they need to know" -- pressing fresh grapefruits, lemons, limes and oranges behind the big old wooden bar. I like High Street's Gone Tropo, made with pineapple vodka, Cointreau, Triple Sec Magnifique, half a ruby-red grapefruit and half a lime. One sip instantaneously transports you to the steamy Caribbean.
As live jazz and blues heat up the place every Friday and Saturday night, the best way to chill is with the ultimate alcoholic smoothie: the Strawberry Spreadsheet. Made by blending Godiva's White Chocolate and Cappuccino Liqueurs and fresh strawberries with ice, the Spreadsheet comes in a large margarita glass garnished with a chocolate-covered strawberry. As for the name, it's self-explanatory, says Kalib. "The name says it all. Guys, buy her one of these, and she'll never forget you. Or the night."
One last drink before stumbling out the door: the Speakease Tea, High Street's version of the Long Island Iced Tea, no sunshine needed. "It's a very labor-intensive drink; it's got about ninety things in it," says Kalib. "I've never seen anybody handle more than two of these without making a total fool of themselves." Consider yourself warned.
As long as you have a designated driver, there's no reason to limit yourself to Denver when Colorado's many mountain towns offer a wide variety of drinking extravaganzas -- from the Telluride Wine Festival to Vail's annual Oktoberfest celebration of lederhosen and beer.
I consider mountain drinking much more fun than hiking, and last year I found two great festivals: the River Run Bluegrass and Beer Festival and the Toast of Breckenridge.
On a sweltering day last August, I spent an afternoon at Keystone's River Run nibbling on kettle corn, watching brute lumberjacks split logs, dancing to some damn fine bluegrass and sipping more than twenty of Colorado's finest microbrews -- one at a time, of course -- out of a four-ounce mug.
As the sun started dipping behind the mountain, my friends and I got down to business with "90 Minutes of Power." What's that? Every minute for the last hour and a half of the festival, you slam a beer. Why? I have no clue -- but it seemed like a good idea at the time. Yes, someone had a stopwatch. Yes, we looked ridiculous chugging mini-beers and then running as fast as we could for more. No, I do not remember going home. No, I did not drive. And yes, I probably will do it again this summer.
River Run's Bluegrass and Beer Festival is scheduled for August 9 and 10. Entry is free, but you pay $15 for the all-the-beer-you-can-drink mini-glass. Log on to www.keystoneresort.com for details.
I tried to find a more high-class experience when my sister was visiting from Los Angeles a few weeks later. Absolutely starving, I suggested spending the day at the Taste of Breckenridge. Oops: The event we showed up for was actually the Toast of Breckenridge, a wine festival.

After watching us, a bleary-eyed couple, trying to negotiate the Fellini-esque scene at the airport, George not only gave us a lift to the Hotel Colina, but after discovering that they were booked, he invited us to his home and dispatched his boyfriend Ulises to canvas the neighborhood and find other accommodations. We ended up staying with a Cuban family several blocks from George's house, which was a much better deal all the way around. Instead of enriching one of Fidel's hotels, we were able to spend time in a real home.
We would stop by George's house daily and discuss our exploits. His was a happy place, filled with birds, dogs (we remember Taco), Ulises, and whoever else was around -- plus the noise and excitement of the street. One night we were invited to dinner. The conversation was warm as my wife and George reminisced about their days in Pittsburgh's Shadyside.
George had certainly adapted to life in Cuba. He was well known in his neighborhood, and he happily shepherded us to the local market downtown and to a performance-art area nearby. But life in Havana certainly had its difficulties. Once we asked him how he'd spent his day. He said he had taken the entire day to look for a 100-watt light bulb. He had to go to eighteen stores to find one.
Another day he mentioned that there had been a great commotion at his house. The local police had come by, demanding to enter to spray for mosquitoes. George, who had a menagerie of animals, refused. The conversation escalated until the police officer, shouting, said, "I have a proclamation from Fidel Castro stating that we must enter every home, including yours, and Fidel says we must spray for mosquitoes!"
George's response (sarcastically): "Next time you see Fidel, say hello to him for me."
The day before we departed, I longingly eyed the hood ornaments on a rusting hulk of an automobile perched on cement blocks just outside his apartment. I told George we would pay ten dollars each for the two ornaments. George contacted the family and had them ready for us, all polished, the next day.
George even arranged for us to borrow bicycles so we could explore the surrounding suburbs. He also planned our transportation back to the airport. Though we began to panic when we ran out of gas on the way to catch our flight, George's friend calmly went to the trunk and pulled out a can of gasoline and a funnel.
Everything George did for us had a magical quality to it. Through him, any modest remunerations and supplies we brought with us were given to people in need when we were ready to leave. He gave his Spanish teacher at the university $50 at the end of the semester, knowing that her salary was the equivalent of $15 per month.
When we left Havana we talked with George about a rendezvous in Miami, hoping to return in some small way his overwhelming hospitality. We tried to contact him by e-mail several times thereafter, but with no response. Imagine our horror when we saw your article!
Whatever else George did in his life, we have the fondest memories of his unwavering warmth, compassion, and generosity. He was our guardian on our trip to Havana and we will never forget him.

Unfortunately New Times tainted the story by failing to give proper credit for a photograph of Zirwas as a young priest. On the morning of April 11, your art director telephoned me to ask for the photo. Within hours we e-mailed it to him with a request that New Times give credit for the photo to my company. Instead they gave credit to a woman named Polly Becker.
I'm glad Glasgow and Corsa got their story. I'm glad they had artwork that helped to tell that story. I just wish New Times had given credit where credit is due.

Editor's note: The photograph of George Zirwas as a young priest was properly credited in the print version of New Times. The error was committed on the Website only and has since been corrected.
Nine out of ten people are obsessed with numbers: I want to tell Rebecca Wakefield how remarkable and how remarkably well-told was her story about Anton Solar, a.k.a. Mr. Toothpicks, and his friend Frank ("Meet Mr. Toothpicks," April 17). The toothpick men make sense to me. There's a big difference between 1,000,000 of something and 999,999 of something, isn't there? Why else would billions of people celebrate New Year's Eve 2000, or even each 10,000-mile flip on the odometer?
But Rebecca's language and perspective sold the piece. This was truly A-hed (Wall Street Journal fourth-column) material. I'll be sure to check out her stuff regularly.

although this bronzer says it's for medium to dark skin, I'm able to use it on my fair skin with a pretty good result. I normally use it for contouring, but sometimes I'll just use a little on my cheeks for a nice glow. I like how it has a happy sun in the middle :) I don't find it to be too orange or shimmery either. I use this almost every day, in rotation with my Physicians Formula Healthy Wear bronzer in Light.
As a drugstore product, this isn't horrible but on my slightly tanned Asian skin, it doesn't show up at all. It's hardly build-able unless i swirl my brush into it 50 times. Though since it has some shimmer in it, sometimes I use it for an subtle all over glow over another bronzer. I will not be repurchasing.
This is probably a good bronzer for someone with medium to dark skin, on my super pale skin it just looked too orange and fake even in the summer when I have a tan it's just too dark, besides all that the excessive glitter is really not my cup of tea, I like soft, gentle bronzers, I dont want to look like Im covered in glitter.
I love to use this as a finishing powder to set my concealer & my matte finish foundations. It's gives my face a luminious quality that is beautiful! It's like an msf natural for a fraction of the price. The bonus is that it does not oxidize on me.

PRO: really nice natural brown colour that goes on evenly
CON: excessively glittery and sparkly. My boyfriend said I looked ridiculous and I had barely used any and it was in the shade, let alone in the sun, i looked like disco ball.
Waste of money.
More reviews by DrTierraFierce
I am an african american girl and I have a medium caramel tone, this stuff doesnt give me a bronze look since I already have the skin color however, the shimmer does show up pretty well its not too shimmery if you apply it right but it does show up especially when you take pics I think it would be great for the summer or when the sun hits. I like the stuff but since it doesnt really give me a bronze look but shimmery, I think that I will just stick with a face shimmer lotion
I never wore bronzers before this and I've bought this bronzer twice now. It just fits well with my anemic pale yellow-olive skin and it makes me look healthy. I wonder how I got through a day without it. I must have looked like a zombie :/

this is my HG bronzer, it gives me the perfect sunny glow. i paid $11 for mine at shopko, and i'd like to say i'm extremely impressed. i apply mine with a kabuki brush and it gives me a flawless sunkissed tan complexion. it doesn't look fake or muddy. it's a bit on the expensive side but it's definately worth it. i've had mine for almost three months and i've barely made a dent. and i wear mine everyday. i'd repurchase this again.
i love this bronzer, i've probably used it for five years? I'm extremely pale, and this still looks good on my skin. When i put on self tanner and am darker, this still looks good on too!
i snached one when they had $5 off coupons attached to them, not to mention they were on sale for 6.99 AND i used a 20% off ulta coupon and i ended up getting one for 65 cents~!
PF's bronzers are great but this is one of the best ones. I am NC35 and this gives me a great glow and believable tan look. I set my foundation with this. I stay looking fresh and tan the whole day. Great for people who have yellow undertone. You can add glow or tan or both with the shades in this bronzer. Read the instructions on the box. You can use this for contouring and even highlighting the whole face.

Changing Screen Resolution Of Games
I know his may sound like a daft question to some of you, but i am playing football manager 2007 and when i start the application, it automatically changes from 1200x800 to 1024x768. This is quite annoying, as it makes the picture look a little stretched. I know that you can right click on the .exe and go to properties an change it to 640x480 or something, but i would like to change it 1200x800.
Could some kind soul tell me how to do this?

Re: Changing Screen Resolution Of Games
Change in .exe? I'm not sure about that, but I do recall some games you can find some kind of .ini file or some type of notepad related file that you can go in there and change the resolution of the games to support widescreens. Try http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/forum/ (wide screen gaming forum) they might help you even more.

Re: Changing Screen Resolution Of Games
...you should be able to change resolution from INSIDE the game, in your options or whatnot. If not, check the link from above. If that doesn't work, you can set your drivers to scale while preserving the aspect, which makes scaling look nicer, and if that STILL doesn't work, you can set the drivers to just not scale the images, and if that's STILL not right, give up on the game.

Re: Changing Screen Resolution Of Games
if you cant change the resolution to your monitors resolution in the game, then theres a good chance it dosnt support widescreen resolutions. Popular games like EA's can usualy be hacked and are covered in places like the widescreen gaming forums, but alas this game isn't so I was unable to pull any more info on its widescreen capabilties.

Re: Changing Screen Resolution Of Games
why dont you run it in window mode if there truly is no widescreen resolution.
Read this for the command line for Football Manager
(its for 2006 but it should work for the 2007)

Interview with Seles now on CNN
May 22nd, 2002, 10:42 PM
May 22nd, 2002, 10:43 PM
It is coming in a few minutes
May 22nd, 2002, 11:02 PM
I hope some people did see it.
She looked really great.
May 22nd, 2002, 11:09 PM
Sorry I missed it. Why were they interviewing her on CNN and what did she have to say, if you can tell us.
May 22nd, 2002, 11:34 PM
They were interviewing her because she is such a great champion. They were referring to what happend in 1993, that she came back as a real champion.
They asked her if she tought she had a chance of winning RG.
She said yes because she tought with all the power players gravel is the surface where she has the best chance.
They showed images of what happend in 1993 and asked her if she ever thought about how it changed her career. She won 9 Grand Slams they said and asked if she ever tought about how many she could have won if she hadn't been hurt in 1993.
She said that it happend and that she doesn't look back.
I can't remember anything else. The interview was only a few minutes but it was great to see her, she looked great.
May 22nd, 2002, 11:39 PM
Thanx! "Monica on CNN" Is that referring to World Sport?
May 22nd, 2002, 11:43 PM
Thanks a lot for the information, bcoene! I forgot CNN had that "World Sport" program. I couldn't figure out why the news department was interviewing her.

Think you've got an idea for an educational company? Like many of these entrepreneurs, you may see an opportunity based on something in your kids' lives. But to make sure you do it right, don't act on your intuition until you can confirm a real need for the service you're considering.
With this type of business, it's also a good idea to start small and on a local level before branching out. Before Peter-Lawshe launched her Reading and Language Arts Centers, for instance, she tested the waters by offering seminars at local libraries for parents whose kids were having trouble learning or needed extra help with homework.
Remember, too, that traditional centers of learning are't the only market for entrepreneurs in this field. In addition to school districts, day-care centers and preschools may be a potential market. Or you can add education to an existing child-care business.
To see if there's a need for educational enrichment in your area, research what others in your community are doing. If educational centers offering enriched classes are booked, there's probably a need for more such centers.
Of course, one of the best sources for market research is parents in your area. Talk to them to see what services they'd be interested in for their kids.
Education is always a hot topic in the media, so take advantage of that interest: Once your business is up and running, start a grass-roots public relations campaign. That's what Gold-Dworkin did when getting Little Scientist off the ground, and before she knew it, "people were coming from all over the state," she recalls, "and all the classes were filling up!"

On June 4, 2012, the Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario ("IPC") released her 2011 Annual Report. The theme of the report "Ever Vigilant" was chosen because, according the IPC's press release, the reintroduction of "lawful access" legislation (discussed in my previous posts here, here and here) "represented one of the most invasive threats to our privacy and freedom" that the IPC has encountered and represent, in her words, what she is calling "Surveillance by Design."

Glendale homes and real estate remain some of the area's most attractive due to their access to so much. When considering Valley living, the areas of Glendale and Burbank probably offer the most central spots when it comes access to all the variety that southern California provides.
It is thirty minutes to the beach, fifteen to downtown, five to Pasadena, and about an hour to the snow. Combine all this with the vibrant culture and beautiful homes that the area provides and you have one of the most notable cities in any of the valleys.
The Glendale city is actually split down the middle by an amazing mountain range. These mountains are known as the Verdugo Mountains. If you are looking for a large city with tons of neighbors and things to do, the Glendale homes are perfect. Glendale is considered to be the 3rd largest of the cities in Los Angeles. This means there will be tons of housing opportunities and activities for the families to indulge in.
Americana is the shopping community located near this city. You will always find something to keep yourself occupied and entertained in Glendale. The homes in this area range from 1 bedroom homes and apartments to 6 bedroom luxurious homes. The spectrum is very wide when it comes to home size and price. The more expensive homes are almost all multi-level. They will also come with beautiful views of the city and the mountains. One side will show you the skyline of the city and the other side will show you the outlines of the mountains. Many of these larger homes were built many years ago but have been redone to keep up with the times. You will experience a modern feel when it comes to the appliances and technology but the exterior and structural designs will bring you back a few years.
The Glendale real estate at the lower end of the price and size spectrum is still large enough for a family. These homes are little more wallets friendly but can still comfortably hold a decent sized family. Some of these homes are built for a single couple or individual or for a small family. With prices a step below those of Burbank, Glendale offers house hunters a chance to search out true bargains.
Some people might think a 1 bedroom 1 bathroom condo home might be too small for comfort, but these homes are reasonably sized. You won't have to worry about cramming all of your belongings in a closet with these houses. They are large enough to hold a lot of items but small enough to be quaint and cozy.
The Glendale houses in the middle of the price and size spectrum are great for families or even college students with roommates. With 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, you can fit a family with 3 children or 4 different roommates in these homes. Because Glendale is in the ideal location, finding a home to fit your needs won't be too difficult. You will be close to different shopping plazas, grocery stores and even tons of restaurants. You will also have magnificent views of both the city skyline and the mountains.

Question for WD VelociRaptor owners...
Both of my VelociRaptors make this subtle click-click noise for a while after disk activity, and in each case the clicking will eventually stop if no keyboard keys are pressed, and no mouse actions take place. The click-click noises are about 5 to 8 seconds apart, until they finally stop. If you do anything with the computer, here they go again. These clicks are somewhat annoying if you can hear them (at least they are to me). I am fully aware of the click of death syndrome that strikes some mechanical hard drives, but this seems to be different from that.
Lots of web searching has produced information about other VelociRaptor owners experiencing clicking sounds, some of which are drives going out, but some contend that these drives do this by default. I'm inquiring about it here because I'm uncertain if the sound that I'm hearing is the default sound they make, and if it isn't, I want to RMA these drives while they are still fairly new.
Thanks to any of you that can verify any clicking noises with your own WD VelociRaptor hard drive(s).Last edited by oz; 08-19-2010 at 05:00 AM. Reason: errors fixed

I have two WD VelociRaptor connected as Raid0.
Now that you mentioned it, I can confirm to hear that click-click you have described.
It is not very high pitched, though. And it is not as loud as the noise during read/write access.
There are special cases for hard drives available in which you can put drives to be less audible, if it really annoys you.

That's exactly the sound I'm referring to. I purchased these two drives on separate occasions, and with that noise on the the first one I thought for sure the drive was bad, but when the second one sounded the same I became unsure, yet worried, so started searching the web but the descriptions found online didn't really settle my concerns much, hence my post here.
Thanks for the info, GNU-Fan!oz

This type of sound is very common with higher-performance drives. It is related to heat and the drive "re-parking" the head (AFAIK) and very normal. I've had many generations of Seagate Cheetah's (10K and 15K) and they are gawd-awful noisy - one of their noises is the type of "clicking" you describe. At one point I changed to some Quantum 10K's and realized I missed the familiar clicking.

Thanks for the verification, HROAdmin26
I posted this question on the Arch Forum as well since that's what I use and one of the members there suggests that this particular noise can be stopped by disabling APM with hdparm and a simple udev rule:
Not only velociraptor, also Caviar Black, and maybe others models with newer firmwares. Is the APM, disable APM with hdparm -B 255.
For example I done this for my wd black with an udev rule. [#1]

from what I understand there is a CM with a headset probably behind the attraction (Not totally unlike the talking trash cans) and the next gen system of computer graphics with AI is being used for the screen
I just got back from Disneyland and my husband talked to a cartoon turtle. And the cartoon turtle talked back. And the same turtle also talks in DisneyWorld's Epcot. And I've been racking my brain to figure out how it was all done. Anyone got the secrets? I've searched the forums and can't find the answer to this one.
It is more brilliant Disney magic, and I don't mind spoilers so give it all away if you know how they do it.
Thanks for any ideas you can share.
from what I understand there is a CM with a headset probably behind the attraction (Not totally unlike the talking trash cans) and the next gen system of computer graphics with AI is being used for the screen
All the people will look up and shout: "Save us!" and I'll whisper...'no'.
Who watches the watchmen?
I'm sure the actor playing Crush has good cameras/monitors to see the audience, but the turtle moves so often and gestures so clearly, I wondered how he was controlled. The facial expressions and the gestures were excellent. And Dory visited and even had things to say about a question an audience member asked.
I'd like to know how many possible variations Ellen had to record. My husband was in the back row and Crush also comments on what is happening in the first rows. There must be a second cast member helping to structure the show and talking to Crush through a headset to prompt the way the show will work. Maybe someone controls his body while the actor controls his face.
I'm just amazed by this show. I hope you can all go see it!
I think the one at EPCOT is closed at the moment still because last time I was at EPCOT, and the Living Seas is closed where Turtle Talk with Crush. But I hope it opens back up soon so I can visit it soon.
It's that great Disney magic!
In the one at Epcot, if you look next to the screen, you will see some dark, semi-reflective, one-way glass. I'm sure the voice talent uses these to view the audience. Also, I don't think that Ellen recorded anythis for Dory...based simply on the amout of questions that Dory could be asked, I think they'd have to use a voice actor.
Por favor mantanganse alijado de las puertas.

Really? They sure had me fooled, I was sure that's how they saw the audience!

I know that there is a person sitting behind the screen and I believe that there are cameras in the room, also lots of the clues can come from the CM in the room with the microphone.

They are not behind that screen. And the host just talks directly to Crush like the guests do.

Quotations from Chairman Barry
I still have my old copy of Quotations From Chairman LBJ. The book was inspired by Quotations From Chairman Mao Tse-Tung ("the little red book"). Compiled by Jack Shepherd and Christopher Wren and published by Simon and Schuster in the annus horribilis of 1968, the book consisted of supposedly laughable quotes attributable to President Johnson. It was popular enough to go through multiple printings. My copy derives from the third »

Why the Gallup Poll Means Deep Trouble for Hillary
Gallup headlines: Obama Approval Drops Among Working-Class Whites. Here, "working class" includes all non-college graduates, some 60-65% of the adult white population. Gallup's chart shows President Obama's approval rating among white college graduates and non-college graduates from the beginning of his administration to the end of October. His 27% approval rating among non-college graduates is indeed striking: But perhaps more important is Obama's steep decline within that demographic. Since he »

The fire this time
Watching the Ferguson mob rioting for fun and looting for the traditional reasons live on television last night, I didn't see much "anger" in evidence. The arson and destruction looked premeditated and deliberate, an orgy of opportunity. Was it an accident that the orgy commenced as President Obama urged calm?

Is Immigration Lawlessness a Precedent? Obama Is Stumped!
George Stephanopolous asks Barack Obama the question that we posed here: if Obama doesn't have to enforce the immigration laws, then why can't a future Republican president decide not to enforce any laws of which he disapproves, like, say, the tax on capital gains? Amazingly, Obama has no answer. He stumbles and fumbles like a kid who is called on in class and hasn't done his homework: Or, to give »

We quoted comments from a specialist in immigration law in "When you're strange." I emailed him a follow-up question and he elaborated his comments through the day.

When you're strange
I cannot find the text of the memos/orders signed yesterday by President Obama to implement the actions announced in his immigration speech this past Thursday evening.

Ramirez's take
You can tell that Investor's Business Daily editorial page editor/editorial cartoonist Michael Ramirez has attended to President Obama's many disavowals of the authority he wielded last night. In the cartoon below that is posted here, Ramirez dispenses with words entirely except the ones cut out of the opening of the Constitution and placed atop the head of the king for a crown.

Go down, Barry
You'd never know that President Obama got clobbered in the midterm elections held — when was it now? — earlier this month, a few weeks ago. Last night Obama was buoyant — not like Mark's Twain's "Christian with four aces." He was way beyond that. He was gleeful. What what he so happy about? He's not facing the voters again. He's free at last and it's time for payback. He's »

Day of infamy, part 2

Day of infamy
FDR famously characterized December 7, 1941, as a date that would live in infamy because of Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor that day.

A spiral of inanity
President Obama is marinated in the left-wing hatred of Israel and, not surprisingly, he hates Israel (not just Prime Minister Netanyahu, though there is that too). He has no patience with Israel's struggle for survival. He seeks to engineer Israel's surrender to her enemies. His attitude toward Israel is perhaps a little more obvious than his attitude toward the United States. As with so many issues, however, Israel presents as »

Angels heard on high: Like the leaves on aspen trees and fields of wildflowers, music in the mountains seems to spring up overnight, along with the temperate weather. The melodies will be flying this weekend as a number of festivals get under way.
The Telluride Bluegrass Festival, Colorado's premier high-country hoedown, might seem like it's getting too sophisticated for its britches, with headliners such as Johnny Cash, Lyle Lovett, Mary Chapin Carpenter and Shawn Colvin continually changing the festival's face. But the four-day favorite in trendy Telluride, snug against the fabulous backdrop of the rugged San Juans, hasn't abandoned its first love: There'll be plenty of bluegrass from Telluride repeaters, including Sam Bush, Bela Fleck, Jerry Douglas, Tim O'Brien and Peter Rowan. Relative newcomers on the folk circuit--notably, Gillian Welch and David Rawlings, Keb' Mo' and Ashley MacIsaac--will also be there, and maybe you will be, too. Area campgrounds fill up fast, as do other forms of lodging, and attendance is limited by the stretched accommodations of Mother Nature herself, so give Planet Bluegrass a call at 449-6007 or 1-800-624-2422 for information. The show begins today and continues through Sunday; admission is $120 for a four-day pass.
A funkier, ethnic lineup that includes Wilson Pickett, Gladys Knight, Tito Puente, Dee Dee Bridgewater and Santana tunes up tonight in the 2,500-seat Snowmass tent for Jazz Aspen at Snowmass, continuing through Sunday. Various weekend packages, starting at $141, are available, as are individual concert tickets; for information call 830-TIXS or 1-800-SNOWMASS.
And a short piece down the road in Aspen, the annual Aspen Music Festival, a time-honored, summer-long classical showcase featuring resident and visiting artists, gets going tonight at 8 with a piano recital by the 1997 Van Cliburn gold medalist at Aspen's Harris Concert Hall. Concerts are held at both indoor and outdoor venues; the graceful Bayer-Benedict Tent, which houses most shows, is surrounded by an inviting lawn perfect for freeloading listeners and sometimes features the sound of gently falling rain to accompany musicians. This year's festival, centered around a Love and Death theme, will include some opera, rock/pop performances and children's events, along with the usual orchestral and chamber concerts; for ticket information call 1-970-925-9042.

Well-rooted: A concert with Taj Mahal is like a fascinating lesson about indigenous folk music--he's been conjuring up an enlightening gumbo of country blues, Caribbean rhythms, New Orleans jazz and even a Hawaiian twang for years, leaving some 35 albums in his wake. His latest endeavor, with something called the Phantom Blues Band, picks up on an R&B drift, mixing up the countrified soul of Ray Charles with the Crescent City pop syncopations of Fats Domino and easygoing Chuck Willis. But no matter what genre Taj Mahal takes on, he ends up teaching you something about it. Classes begin tonight at 7:30 and 10:30 at the Fox Theatre, 1135 13th St., Boulder. Tickets are $21; call 443-3399 or 830-TIXS to reserve yours.
Seeking Solas: No one who hears Seamus Egan play believes he was born in the good old U.S. of A. By the age of fifteen, the Irish-American multi-instrumentalist was, after all, an All-Ireland Championship winner on flute. And tin whistle. And banjo. And, oh yeah, mandolin. But Egan isn't the only talent in his band, Solas, a sort of Celtic version of American new-grass. Fiddler Winifred Horan, button accordionist John Williams, guitarist John Doyle and haunting vocalist Karan Casey all add something unique to the mix, making Solas a major Celtic contender alongside top dogs Altan and Clannad. The group kicks off the Denver Botanic Gardens' summer concert series tonight at 7:15 with a lilting open-air show; for tickets, $19 ($16 DBG members), call 777-3836. The Gardens are located at 1005 York St.

Moptop memories: Don't look now, you rapidly ripening baby boomers, but your age is showing. Not only do you own the entire Beatles anthology, but you even remember that first awesome night when the Fab Four stormed American television on Ed Sullivan's really big shew. Demographically, you know you're the prime target audience for Yesterday: A Tribute to the Beatles, so just do it. Give in and go see for yourself: The impersonating foursome, decked out with authentic Beatle costumes, hairdos and musical gear, looks and sounds pretty much like the real thing, as long as you remove your specs. Next stop, Las Vegas? Nah--that's still Elvis country. Tickets to the show, tonight at 7:30 at the Arvada Center's outdoor amphitheater, 6901 Wadsworth Blvd., are $17 for reserved seating or $10 for lawn seating; call 433-3939.

Defeat at Thermopylae
The Spartans fought the Persians for three days, while the other Greek soldiers got safely away to the south. At the end of three days, every one of the three hundred Spartan soldiers was dead, along with the Spartan king, Leonidas.
After the war was over, the Greeks put a memorial stone at Thermopylae. On it, there was a poem by Simonides, which says, "Stranger, go tell the Spartans that here, obeying their orders, we died."
The Persians got through Thermopylae and rushed on south. They went by Thebes, which had already surrendered to them, without attacking it, and prepared to attack Athens.
To find out more about Thermopylae, check out these books from Amazon.com or your local library:

Gates of Fire: An Epic Novel of the Battle of Thermopylae, by Steven Pressfield (1999). For older readers - there's a lot of graphic violence and some romance. But it's a pretty accurate account of the battle, in fictional form, and very dramatic, though the writing seemed a little wooden to me.

About our recent rate change
We've worked hard to maintain our rates for seven years while bringing natural gas—a cleaner, lower cost energy source—to you and your region for the first time.
Our rates will be changing for our customers in Baily/Southpark, Cripple Creek, Pueblo West and Eastern regions as of November 1, 2013.
We will to continue to provide you with the highest level of service. As the only natural gas provider in Colorado serving communities other utilities would or could not serve, the rate change will help to ensure that CNG maintains the most modern, reliable and safe system possible.

Coconut popcorn oil can be a great way to enjoy coconut oil. Yet, using coconut oil to pop corn is probably something you'd never have considered.
(Click HERE to read our Popcorn recipe!)
Traditionally popcorn is popped with canola oil or plain old vegetable oil. But using unrefined virgin coconut oil instead will give your popcorn a slightly tropical taste that's both intriguing and delicious.
Virgin coconut oil is an amazing all purpose cooking oil that you can consume. In fact, coconut oil weight loss is becoming a thriving industry. But there are more ways to get this delicious oil into your diet than through popcorn alone. Here are 5 great ways to use it in cooking so you can be as healthy and happy as possible.
- Stir-Fry Meals–Yes, you can use solid coconut oil in stir-fries. As with any cooking, organic coconut oil is best, because it's made from coconuts grown without chemical pesticides or fertilizers, so it will be healthier for you. It doesn't matter what kind of stir-fry you're making, you can use this oil in it, though its tropical taste naturally lends itself to dishes including tropical ingredients such as pineapple, mango, and banana. Note if you add some sea salt or herbs or garlic it will reduce the coconut flavor and bring out the high notes of the dish or herbs you have added.
- In homemade ice cream–If you have an ice cream maker, you can make the best coconut ice cream in the world with coconut oil. All you need to know is where to buy coconut oil and how to crank an ice cream maker. Most coconut oil for sale is available at grocery and health food stores, so it's not too hard to find. Mix the oil with coconut water and stir in flaked coconut flesh, and you've got a taste sensation that can't be beat.
- In baking –In place of butter, try coconut oil. You'll be surprised at how rich and moist your cupcakes, pie crusts, cakes, and muffins come out. You can use it in place of butter measure for measure, and it tastes delicious.
- In homemade granola — Every good homemade granola dish needs some oil, and butter or canola oil is usually the choice. Try melting some coconut oil to liquid state and mix in with your granola concoction before baking it, and you'll be amazed at the scrumptious results.
- On salads –This is a great choice if you're making your own dressing. A little olive oil and vinegar gets a healthy and tasty boost by the addition of some melted organic coconut oil. Your salad dressing will taste richer, and the salad overall will be much healthier. Give it a try and see what a difference it makes in your health and your way of cooking.

Visit Holiday Travel Park in Virginia Beach
June 27, 2010 by admin · 2 Comments
We've been to almost all the other areas of Virginia (which is a great state to visit no matter where you're at) so we decided we'd head to Virginia Beach this summer. I looked up Woodall's and decided on Holiday Travel Park. The girl taking the reservation was very polite and was a good indicator of how well we'd like our stay.
We checked in Saturday night and even though they were busy, our check in was quick and easy. The site I had chosen was on the Eden Drive circle. This area is tucked away, but still convenient to get to all the needs of the campground. The sites were a good size and the one we had even had a nice deck to it.
In a word, this is one clean campground! Holiday Travel has a wonderful group of people working for them who all seem to take pride in their jobs. No matter where were went in the park the staff was friendly and helpful. There are many comfort stations (restrooms) through out the campground and they are all well maintained.
The campground is well laid out with 4 pools and 5 playgrounds, it makes this large campground seem small and quaint. We tried out 2 of the 4 pools. The main pool was our favorite since there was a 1 foot kiddie pool and the big pool started off at 2 1/2 feet (the other pool was 3 foot and Baby Girl was too sort to touch the bottom). The main pool is also where they host the DJ, so even when it's hot as blazes, you can still cool off and enjoy the entertainment.
There are 2 very well stocked camp stores, one at the main gate and one in the middle of the campground. They've got everything for your camping needs, pool needs, beach needs and even some nice souvenirs.
The campground is about 1 1/2 miles from Virgina Beach. They have their own lot a block off the beach where you can park. We used this lot when we went to the beach at night just to walk around. Since we had lots of stuff to schlep to the beach when we went for the day we parked on the municipal parking lot right off the beach. It was well worth the $6. There's also a bus that makes a loop to this campground, the KOA right up the road, the beach and the aquarium. You can buy an all day pass for the bus for $2 a person at registration. (little ones under 38″ are free) Speaking of buying passes from registration office, you can also get discounted tickets to all the main attractions in the area including Bush Gardens.
After I had booked our reservation, I had saw some reviews on the campground that were not favorable. Those dealt with 2 main complaints, one being the jet noise. No matter where you camp in Virginia Beach, you're going to have jet noise, the airbase is after all in Virginia Beach. But since my family loves things that are fast and loud, we were actually entertained by the jets flying overhead. The other complaint was this campground is bi-lingual. Many people from Quebec come here to visit. So if you're a Chatty Cathy like me, then it can make it harder to strike up a conversation when you're at the pool, but I wouldn't say this made my visit any less enjoyable.
All and all we really enjoyed our visit to Holiday Travel Park. The park offered lots to do for family camping. They try to make your visit to Virginia Beach as pleasant as possible. The campground offers many convinces. We saw all types of campers there, from retired couples, to families with teenagers, to families with young children. It really is a campground for all.

Tried self install at first, directions not that great. Had them professionally installed and was told installation was a little tricky. They needed to cut a very small section of the heat shield for install. They stuck to their original verbal quote of 1 hr. labor, when it took closer to 3; honorable on the part of the shop. Look great and gives the Pilot a more 'trucky' look. Eases access to roof rack for me and helps the little ones get in and out with ease. Recommend.

Xenotransplantation: Diabetic Volunteers to Receive Pig Cell Implants
Xenotransplantation ("zee-no-transplantation") may sound like something from a space invasion novel, but it's actually the practice of transplanting organs, cells, or tissues from one animal species into another. With scientific advances taking place so rapidly and with so many patients desperate for organ transplants, it seems plausible (and pretty likely) that one day xenotransplantation will be commonplace.
At this time, the transfer of disease from the donor species to human recipients, called xenozoonosis ("zee-no-zoo-oh-no-sis"), is still a cause for concern. But by minimizing this risk, Living Cells Technologies is moving forward with a study evaluating xenotransplantation as a possible treatment for type 1 diabetes.
During the company's study, insulin-producing cells from newborn pigs will be implanted into the stomachs of human subjects in an effort to delay the effects of type 1 diabetes. Professor Bob Elliott, the medical director of Living Cell Technologies, stated in a press release that in two previous trials of the process, insulin production was "increased in some subjects. Others rejected the pig cells, or the implanted cells stopped producing insulin after a year."
Although pig insulin used to be a common treatment for human diabetes, implanting pig cells into humans is another story entirely. Xenozoonosis from the pigs to human recipients has the potential to cause new illnesses that have not been previously seen in humans. How would we respond? Would it prove to be deadly? Dr. Elliott, however, believes that the threat of a pig virus infecting the humans in his study is no more than "theoretical." The piglets used for the cell transplants are believed to be free of transferable viruses because their ancestors lived for 150 years on an isolated island south of New Zealand. They are currently being housed in a sterile environment.
Professor Martin Wilkinson, who is not associated with the study, stated in an Associated Press article that infection from the pig islet cells is not a great risk and that the human subjects could probably deal with it even if it did happen.

Interview: John Hawkes Comes from Outer Space for 'Martha Marcy May Marlene'
Features By Jack Giroux on October 27, 2011 | Be the First To CommentJohn Hawkes describes his cult leading character Patrick as if he "just came from outer space." After you've seen the film, you'll know that that description could not be more apt. Patrick is a walking and talking enigma with no past or future. He's someone who lives in the moment and is only interested in feeling that moment. Does he have a greater agenda? Maybe. Are his intentions malicious? Possibly. Where does he come from, and what does he believe in? No idea. That's Patrick: a mystery. The gentle and quietly frightening character is one of the many mysteries in Sean Durkin's feature debut, Martha Marcy May Marlene. The Sundance hit raises far more questions than the answers it barely gives. Durkin's psychological horror film trusts you to fill in the blanks, as does John Hawkes. Here's what the actor had to say about the oddly and charming ways of Patrick, the walking mystery:
The Toronto International Film Festival Announces Its Lineup, Looks Spectacular Doing It
Film Festivals By Nathan Adams on July 26, 2011 | Comments (1)If you're like me, then you probably don't pay much attention to what goes on in towns outside your own. As far as I knew, the only thing Toronto had going on was gripes about Maple Leaf hockey and reminiscing about when The Kids in the Hall used to play that tiny theater down the street. But what do I know? I haven't been there since The Ultimate Warrior pinned Hulk Hogan at Wrestlemania 6. Turns out they have a really awesome film festival every year. This year the events go down between September eighth and the eighteenth, and the first fifty or so films announced for the lineup have me wanting to take a trip. There are too many to discuss, but just to give you an idea of what we're working with, let's look at a few.

A prototype of Samsung's Galaxy tablet (creatively named the "Galaxy Tab") has been spotted again, this time in the hands of a Chinese citizen. Unfortunately, Google Translate is pretty awful on this one:
Rumor around the interwebs in the last few days has been that Samsung may be planning on announcing the Samsung Galaxy Tab during the August 11th press conference.
Unfortunately, we just got word from the official Samsung PR source saying that the event is unrelated to a tablet release. In fact, it's completely unrelated to the mobile division altogether and will be related to the Consumer Electronics division. While, one could argue that CE could include a tablet as well, the PR contact specifically mentioned that a tablet is not involved.
Samsung has confirmed that their Android tablet device, the Galaxy Tab, will be shipping in Q3 of this year. The Galaxy Tab has been rumored for some time now, and is very similar in design and function to the Galaxy S line of phones – which our own unboxings show are some pretty gorgeous pieces of kit.
As you can see, the tab truly does look like an oversized Galaxy S.
The title says it all: Samsung has sold a whopping 200,000 Galaxy S' in the first 10 days in South Korea. That may not seem like a lot in comparison to the iPhone 4's 1.7m in 3 days, but keep in mind that the iPhone 4 launched internationally. South Korea's population (as of 2009) was just over 50 million people – meaning they're less than 1/6 the size of the US.
Ever since details of Samsung's upcoming 'Galaxy Tab Tape' were revealed by the company's South African Twitter account at the beginning of this month, more specifications have been finding their way on to the internet.
The latest findings suggest that the Galaxy Tape will be powered by a 1.2GHz processor, and come with 16GB of storage to match. In addition to this, it's touted to run Android 2.2 out of the box.

Our Philosophy
Coworking….nice concept, right? Sure, but it's much more powerful than you might think. Telecommunications and technology, in general, have been improving at warp speed. Our standard of living has never been better and our access to information and one another has never been easier. We can video-chat with people around the world and share information with the click of a button. We have cars that can park themselves nowadays and smartphones that can do just about everything but walk the dog.
But we've been missing something. Something big. We still struggle to find satisfaction in our jobs — the activity we spend most of our time on. Why is it so hard to find a job we like? Or to like a job that we have? Sometimes it's the work itself, but sometimes, it's not. Sometimes, it's the environment and details that surround your work. Sometimes, it's your never-ending commute or your boring co-workers (or lack thereof) and office politics. Sometimes, it's your inflexible hours or uninspiring work space. Sometimes it's all of these things! These details can not only affect your work-life happiness, but your overall well-being.
Coworking is a means to solve this. Coworking, as we see it, is a way to improve happiness at work. It's an evolution of work — where work is what we do and no longer where we are. Taking part in this work evolution can result in some powerful changes, not only for you, the worker, but for your company, your community, and the environment.
Whether you are a self-employed worker or entrepreneur, remotely located corporate employee or part of an expanding business, you have a new workspace at Onward. It's estimated over 40% of the US workforce has coworking compatible jobs. Do you?

Not sure about my other characters.

Feb 12th 2012 11:26AM I consider myself fortunate that I have no rugrats of my own and two of my sisters also play WoW (sometimes we go on dungeon runs together). If I have to go take care of something (usually a chore of some kind, such as setting the table or something) I'll say BRB and follow the healer if I'm a DPS.
The Light and How to Swing It: 2 tanking wishes for Mists {WoW}
Feb 10th 2012 9:53PM As a tank, I have several things I'm trying to focus on (killing the monster, making sure other monsters don't come join the fight before I'm ready, and the healer's mana). When I first started tanking, threat was also an issue, but then they took that off my plate (no pun intended) for the most part (still something I need to focus on, but not as much as I used to).
I'd rather Blizz didn't add threat back in addition to active mitigation. I'm okay with them adding damage mitigation. As it is, my rotation is pretty boring, even if I add the occasional damage CD. I think adding hit, expertise, crit to the list of important stats would be a good thing. There could be a passive benefit to the mitigation abilities, but if you hit, the benefit is greater.
