I have two small beds I need some help on! - 1) One on the back of the house facing NNE, and 2) one on the left side of the house facing WNW. Our house faces SSW. Deer resistant plants would be wise choices for our garden. 1) on the back of the house facing NNE This is a very narrow bed (2ft deep I would guess) between concrete walkway and the wall with large window. It gets no direct sunlight, but but doesn't feel too dark maybe because it opens to the sky and light reflects from the white siding. There is a small area where Pachysandra is doing well, to the right of that is AC unit, and to the right of that about 10ft wide. I am a total newbie but the area is fairly damp/wet, so not dry shade. Currently there are only two astillbes there that grew about 1-2ft tall. Foliage was good, but it had only 2-3 flowers per plant. I am dividing them soon to see if that helps - I doubt previous owner did much to it at all. What else can I plant here? Do I need some foundation plant? It looks awfully empty in the winter so some evergreen + other perennials would be nice I think. But not a lot of space. Also it has large window on that wall, so I rather not plant something that will block the view too much. So something shorter than 3-4 ft ideally. I could plant something taller in the corner where it is just wall. 2) on the left side of the house facing WNW This bed is on the back NW corner of our house. No direct sunlight in AM at all, but around 2-3pm (depending on the season) it starts getting direct sun but only for a couple of hours. There are no trees between us and the neighbor on that side of the house so it gets direct sun until the sun is blocked by the neighbor's house. The soil is moist. When we moved in there wasn't anything there (except for the weeds..), and last fall we planted a yew in the corner (where it doesn't get any direct light all day, and a winter gem boxwood mid way of the bed. Both are doing well so far although i haven't seem it go through all seasons yet. What can I plant here? I have an Azalea bush in the front lawn that possibly needs to be moved, would it do well here? What about Hydrangea? What else can I grow here? I know some are going to suggest hostas, but I am not sure if it a losing battle with the deer. I am putting in a new fences but won't be high enough to keep them out. We prefer no high maintenance plants since we are a couple working full time with a toddler and another one on the way... |

Yo Drops: A Healthy Snack (But Your Kids Will Think It's Candy!)
I'm always looking for nutritious snacks to get my kids to eat. Things that taste so good that they won't realize it's actually really healthy and good for them. Because when they hear those words, they usually end up running the other way. Which is why I think that Yo' Drops by Revolution Foods is a FANTASTIC treat!
Yo' Drops are a "crunchable yogurt" snack and come in three flavors: Mango Mania, Berry Blast and Strawberry Banana-rama. If your kids like those yogurt tubes that you can buy at the grocery store, they'll love Yo' Drops.
The drops are made from certified, all-organic, 100% real fruit and yogurt and then turned into freeze-dried drops that look like little candies. There is no added sugar and Yo'Drops are free of high fructose corn syrup, trans fats and artificial ingredients. There's nothing fake about these "candies" though — they're just plain good for you!
It's a easy, portable snack that I know my kids love. They don't have to be refrigerated, so I always have a stash in my purse. The only drawback to this product is that you can't find them everywhere — I have to order them online. And while they're reasonably priced ($3.99 for a 4-pack . . . remember that it's all natural and certified organic), it's kind of inconvenient to have to order them online.
I do like that Revolution Foods gives back 3% of net revenues to school lunch programs which deliver fresh meals to under-served schools. So you're children are eating healthy and helping others to eat healthy, too!
So what do you think? Is this a snack that you would purchase for your kids?

RIP Jeff Conaway. You are in heaven now, keeping the Drazi angels and the Pak'ma'ra angels from killing each other.
Stereogum still works great, though! If you have something bitter and hateful to say about Bon Iver or Odd Future, you'll find lots of good company in the most commented threads!
It's more than a little embarrassing that they basically had the title of the comic in the dialogue, right? Did Tintin really need to wonder about what sort of Secrets the Unicorn might contain?! I only hope Speilberg goes all-in and has the last line of the film something like "Well Snowy, I sure am glad we found out the Secret of the Unicorn!" Roll credits.
Also for the record, I don't think JK Rowling ripped off Diana Wynne Jones. Just saying, if you go down that route, I think it's a little more apt.
For the record, it's Diana Wynne Jones she rips off more than Roald Dahl.
Seconded on the nice words for TV. I have some friends who work in reality TV, and I have lots of respect for them as storytellers (they all work as producers). So much of the "reality" TV that we watch today still has story arcs, and so there is a storytelling of a different kind going on here, maybe not the kind that is scripted out by a writer before hand, but storytelling just the same. And the amount of unwatchable and boring footage that gets sifted through just to create an engaging 15-minute moment on one of these TV shows is more work than some people imagine.
I should come back here more often, cause I missed Mans guest blogging. Great job Mans!
Sorry this is so late.
Was it just my imagination, or was the little scamp wearing the wheel shoes? Cause if so that fall must have busted up those shoes pretty bad. I mean, he's probably gonna have to buy a whole new pair, poor little guy.
A Wrinkle in the Ocarina of Time.
It's a bit of a stretch.
Aldomania! Boy is it nice to meet other curmudgeons on the world webbings.
You should absolutely be tooting that horn like Miles on Bitches Brew (the real # 1 drug album), cause that Verve comment was solid gold. And though I didn't say anything in the post, I did upvote it multiple times from multiple computers.
I thought a lot about this as soon as I read Gabe's statement about how the show is live every week, and how it needs to pull off something huge every time and cetera. And to your point about having it taped every week, and the first seasons that you can watch on Netflix and everything, I just think it's amazing what SNL has become as compared with what it started out as. It seems like in the early days, it was a send-up of the dying art of live TV as spectacle, the sort of George Burns and Gracie Allen type thing. You can see this manifest in the older episodes where they have these old guards of live TV on the show, trying to interact with a show that mocks what they once did with cheap sets, intentionally poor production values, and absurdist humor. Take a look at the old Milton Berle episode, where he should be a show-biz legend able to pull off a show like that in his sleep, instead he's awkward, crass, unfunny, borderline racist, and pretty openly hostile with a lot of the cast. So what was my point? Right, that SNL seems like a herculean feat now, but I suppose it is only in the context of now, and that the live TV spectacle was once more common, and what supported a lot of the original mockery on the show. But SNL is a beast unto itself, as Chris Trash mentions, so there's really no way to change. Pity SNL, unable to change and so unable to get back to being a hip television alternative to the status quo. I mean, they once had Sun Ra as the musical guest!
I'm just upset because apparently, this is the new Stravinsky. One day a graduate thesis will be written about how Brokencyde helped to usher in the post-post-post-modern era of music, and the riots that ensued on the Videogum comment boards.
True, but I think the overall point of the film is the same whether Mr Brainwash is simply a Banksy front or not.
You've got to see them in the theater! I can still recall seeing The New World, and during that shot where the boat approaches the swamps of Virginia, and the overture from The Rheingold is playing, oh that's something marvelous when writ large across the sky, my friend.
I say existential crises because, as I realized watching the trailer, I am in a much different place than I was when The Thin Red Line came out. And this one seems to be such an all-encompassing film (which, honestly, other Malick films certainly were as well, but none of them were so grounded in contemporary life as this one seems to be) that I'm actually nervous about where it will take me.
Also, I think that I'm investing far too much in a film. And yes, Thin Red Line is my favorite.
My favorite TV moment of 2010 was when I re-watched Babylon 5 on Netflix streaming. I even kind of enjoyed some of the first season episodes!
Kind of.
Yes! Just saw that on Kottke. Ever since The Thin Red Line took a black cat to my frontal lobe, I've been a die-hard Malick defender, which can get difficult sometimes.
But Tree of Life, I almost feel like I will need to watch this in the comfort of my own home, because I like to have my existential crises on my own time, thank you very much.
Tis the truth. I was having a conversation with a co-worker at a holiday office party many moons ago, and she asked the age-old question of which superpower you would want to have: flight or invisibility. I chose flight, because that is a fucking gift! When I fly in an airplane I'm so excited I can barely sit still, and I spend the entire time staring out the window like a baby because you are 30,000 feet in the air! How could you give that up?
But then she said no, I was lying. That we would all choose invisibility because then we could sneak around and watch celebrities have sex with each other. So there is plenty of allure to the cult of celebrity.
How many times do we have re-watch Hitchcock's favorite plot painfully acted by aging demi-gods? At least Hitchcock got the humor right, and most importantly in his films he made it extremely hard for the unwilling hero to actually kill or even temporarily hurt the bad guys. Give me Jimmy Stewart awkwardly running away from two nameless thugs over Johnny Depp destroying the Russian Embassy with one well-placed bullet any day of the week.
Does anyone else find that as they get older, the ultra-serious or suspenseful films from the old days have actually become quite funny? I find myself laughing often at Hitchcock films, and even plenty of Kubrick as well. Why do I find Eyes Wide Shut to be kind of hilarious now?
Thanks you two. And you know, I've been in and out of a few bands that are still playing in some respect, and a part of me wants one of them to make it REALLY big just so that I can be the Pete Best for a new generation, as if I would derive some perverse pleasure out of being King of the Almosts.
Wait…this is my therapist's office, isn't it?
Or how about the Ghost of Pete Best's Career?
I am not proud of myself right now.
I dunno, it seems like the movies are finally starting to be a bit more faithful to how completely bonkers the original cartoon was. Watching that old stuff with the benefit of critical faculties, I'm not sure how I enjoyed it at all, though the intense Lucky Charms sugar high no doubt helped.
!!! Kop! I commit no transgression!
I'm sorry, I must strongly disagree with this nomination. I will concede that sometimes the dialogue is a little ham fisted, but there are some great meditations on aging and growing apart from your family in that film. It might not deliver yucks every ten seconds, but I think it still ranks as a great film.
The "Ka-ZAM!" Sunday comic on that page, that includes a real gem of a Coconino County-esque landscape, and is my favorite Calvin and Hobbes strip, absolutely.
Bless your heart, Werttrew, for making this happen.

Mar 8, 2013 5:32 AM by ASSOCIATED PRESS
SAN DIEGO (AP) - Environmentalists say a five-year training plan by the Navy would harm endangered species off the Southern California coast including the blue whale.
The California Coastal Commission is expected to rule on whether the Navy's plan needs more protective measures at a hearing in San Diego on Friday.
Michael Jasny of the Natural Resources Defense Council says unless there are new restrictions the plan will bring a big surge in sonar testing.
In its proposal, the Navy estimates the increased activity would have a negligible impact on marine populations. Navy officials declined comment before the hearing.
Jasny wants the commission to urge the Navy create a new proposal that would avoid training during times sensitive for animals like feeding and breeding.
The current plan calls for the Navy to increase existing measures when necessary.
The training program would begin next year and run until 2019.

Ibiquity Rebrands IBOC; Now called HD Radio
By Chriss Scherer, editor
Columbia, MD and Warren, NJ - Aug 12, 2002 - Ibquity Digital has unveiled a trademarked brand name for its IBOC digital AM/FM technology: HD Radio. Ibiquity expects to have IBOC-capable radios ready for display at CES 2003 in January. To do so, the company has reached agreements with Texas Instruments to develop the necessary chipsets. Consumer electronics manufacturer-Kenwood is also developing receivers to be shown at the winter convention.
A recent Yankee Group study shows that half of all consumers shopping for a car or home receiver in the next year are interested in buying a digital AM/FM radio, a statistic that has been heavily debated during recent months. The Yankee Group study cites consumers are most interested in the improved sound quality of digital radio. Ibiquity and the Yankee Group also feel that Interactive digital features, such as radio recording and on-screen information, will help fuel consumer demand.
Ibiquity Digital's HD Radio technology, known as IBOC to most broadcasters, has been in development for several years. IBOC, an acronym for in-band on-channel, is a term whose use has also been debated. The Ibiquity signal occupies the outer spectrum of a station's RF carrier. Because of this, some have debated that the technology should be called IBAC for in-band adjacent-channel. The new trademarked term helps Ibiquity avoid the IBOC/IBAC debate while attaching a brand identity to the technology.
Exhibitors, Attendees Call Klotz RoadShowCase a Success
By Chriss Scherer, editor
Los Angeles - Aug 5, 2002 - On August 2, Klotz Digital held its first RoadShowCase in conjunction with SBE chapter 47 in Los Angeles. Many vendors and manufacturers participated in the event, including Studio Technology, Wohler Technologies, 360 Systems, Thales, Klotz Digital, Omnia, Moseley, ERI, Henry Engineering, Telos, Graham-Patten Systems, Orban, Gepco, Broadcasters General Store, Symetrix, Auralex, Radio Systems and RF Engineers. The day-long event hosted radio and TV broadcast engineers and programming personnel from the Southern California area.
About 75 people attended the event from companies including Infinity, DirecTV, Liberman Broadcasting, ABC Radio, Clear Channel, Big City Radio, Armed Forces Radio and TV Networks, Hispanic Broadcasting, Lotus Communications and Cumulus Media. Each attendee received an SBE Chapter 47/Klotz Digital America RoadShowCase t-shirt.
The show provided a smaller, more private setting for attendees to see the products and receive demonstrations. Regional shows such as these have been held throughout the country for many years and have proven to be successful. Vendors at the event were pleased and surprised by the attendance.
Hank Landsberg from Henry Engineering said, "It was a well-attended show, and attendees were the heavy-hitters of LA area radio. They didn't just come for a free lunch." Other exhibitors commented that the show was a great opportunity for them to meet and talk engineering with the core group from the area.
One of the key session presentations was provided by Jeff Detweiler of Ibiquity Digital. Detweiler discussed stations' needs to implement IBOC with their facilities.
Klotz Digital has announced that it plans to have its next RoadShowCase in Dallas during the first week of December. Several key vendors have already committed to attending.

FCC's Fee Filer Available for FY2002 Regulatory Fees
FY2002 Changes
FCC Registration Number (FRN): The Remittance Advice Form 159 has been revised to require the payer and applicant FRN. Use of the FRN has been mandatory since Dec. 3, 2001. Payments received without an FRN will be retained by the Commission, which will notify the filer that the payment was received without an FRN and that proper credit will not occur until the FRN is provided. If you do not yet have an FRN, you can obtain one through the FCC Commission Registration System (CORES) website at www.fcc.gov.
Exact Amount Due: Beginning in FY 2002, all payees are directed to pay the exact dollar and cents amount due for each entry on FCC Form 159 and when filing the Regulatory Fee electronically using the Fee Filer program. The use of exact dollar and cents for each entry will ensure that a payment is credited properly. While in the past, the Commission has permitted the rounding of fee payments to the nearest whole dollar, differences between the amount paid and the sum of fees for associated licenses have resulted in delayed payment processing.
The new Form 159 Batch Selection screen allows filers to create multiple 159 Forms. The filer can repeat the process as many times as desired. Those paying fees by credit card can now use Discover, American Express, Visa and Mastercard.

Columbia, MD and Redwood City, CA - Aug 6, 2002 - Ibiquity has acquired an exclusive worldwide license to Command Audio's intellectual property and technology in the field of digital radio and Command Audio's other digital radio-related assets. The acquisition has set the stage for radio broadcasters to provide consumers content on-demand, including program selection via an electronic guide, scanning content and pausing or saving audio for later listening.

Total - 50 cards
Around 50% of the cards in the deck are Odd-numbered.
Although it's not properly streamlined for rushing due to the theme (goblins) and "fun" cards in it, it's one of the stronger decks within our gaming group.
Considering it is a themed deck, the only major problems I've had with it are good unit control decks with a good start.
Ideal Starter hand is - Swarm of Bats+ Warpstone Experiments which has the potential to 8 damage a zone on the first turn.

Does anyone else have an Orc rush build that we can compare with?
Posted 04 December 2011 - 12:35 AM
The list seems to be too slow for me. Too much control in it.
My newst take on it:
3 Veteran Sellswords
3 Warpstone Excavation
3 Choppa
3 Contested Village
3 Crooked Teef Goblins
3 Fungusbrew Goblin
3 Spider Riders
3 Warpstone Experiments
3 Clan Moulder's Elite
3 One Orc's Scrap...
3 Snotling Pump Wagon
3 Squig Herders
3 Squig Trackers
3 Stunty Smasha
3 Swarm of Bats
3 Blood Dragon Knight
3 Smash-Go-Boom!
Posted 18 January 2012 - 12:43 AM
Here's the build that I'm running now:
3 Crooked Teef Goblins
3 Fungusbrew Goblin
3 Spider Riders
3 Night Goblin Fanatic
3 Sneaky Git
3 Squig Hopper
3 Wyvern Rider
3 Giant Spider
3 Ugrok Beardburna
2 Wight Lord
3 Warpstone Experiments
3 Pillage
3 Warpstone Excavation
3 Contested Village
3 Choppa
3 Totem of Gork
3 Grimgor's Camp
I've built the deck around the Night Goblin Fanatic and Sneaky Git, so there are only 12 even numbered cards. That means you succeed about 75% of the time. You instafold to any Chaos deck that runs anti unit tech but I've yet to find an Orc rush deck that doesn't. Also, this is the first Orc rush deck that I've played that can win by spending all 3 gold on your battlefield : )

Municipal water supply and wastewater treatment (W&WW) systems are among the most energy-intensive facilities owned and are operated by local governments, accounting for about 35% of energy used by municipalities. Water and wastewater treatment and distribution in the United States is estimated to consume 50,000 GWh, representing 1.4 percent of the total national electricity consumption, and cost over $4 billion annually. However, according to EPA's ENERGY STAR® program, 10 percent savings can readily be achieved in this area.
Water and energy are interconnected in two important ways:
From an energy efficiency perspective, water represents an important opportunity for energy savings. These savings can come from using less water—water efficiency—and from using less energy in water and wastewater systems. Achieving these savings will require increasing the awareness of this water-energy nexus and building bridges between the energy efficiency and water communities to spark innovations, research and development, leading to increased energy efficiency and decreased treatment costs and infrastructure and capacity building expenditures. An acknowledgement of this linkage is becoming evident in water-constrained states such as California, but interest is also growing more broadly from New York to the Southeast and to the intermountain regions. ACEEE supports this water-energy opportunity by conducting research to quantify the opportunities, studying and evaluating programs that promote water efficiency and energy efficiency in water and wastewater treatment, and policies that encourage greater efficiency in water.

LPGA Qualifying Tournament – Stage 1
LPGA International, Champions Course
Daytona Beach, Fla.
Third-round wrap story
September 6, 2012
Moriya Jutanugarn Maintains Lead at LPGA Qualifying Tournament
DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – Moriya Jutanugarn of Thailand will maintain her one-stroke lead heading into the final round on Friday of the LPGA Qualifying Tournament. Jutanugarn, 18, carded 4-under-par 68 today to move to 13-under 203. She leads Garrett Phillips of St. Simon's Island, Ga., who matched Jutanugarn's 68 and sits one shot off the lead a 12-under 204.
Jutanugarn posted three birdies, three bogeys and two eagles on Thursday and accredited some luck as her saving grace on the par-5 5th and 18th, where her eagles came.
"I was lucky," said Jutanugarn. "I hit it to within three feet on five and had a 15-footer on 18."
With or without luck on her side, Jutanugarn said she really enjoyed playing on Thursday because she was in the good company of friend and frequent playing partner, Jaye Marie Green.
"Today I played with my good friend Jaye," said Jutanugarn. "My sister and I play with her a lot in junior and amateur. It's so much fun to play with her. She's a great player. It's a lot of fun."
Jutanugarn said it might have been a bit of friendly competition that kept her game sharp throughout the round and had plenty of moments when Green would one-up her.
"When I hit it close, she would hit it closer," said Jutanugarn. "And I'd be like, 'what? That was a good shot!'"
The Thailand native said she's looking forward to improving her putting in Friday's final round and doesn't have much pressure riding her yet.
"I feel like my putting in the first two rounds was better than today," said Jutanugarn. "Tomorrow I just want to make some putts. I missed some putts for par. The greens have been tough.
"I'm not feeling too much pressure," she said. "I just want to make it in the top 60 and play in the second stage."
Green, a 2012 U.S. Women's Amateur finalist, (69) is in third at 11-under 205, followed by 2012 NCAA runner-up Brooke Pancake (69) at 9-under 207.
Friday's final round will start at 7:45 a.m. off the first and 10th tees. The leaders will tee off at 9:55 a.m. Friday off the first tee of the Champions Course at LPGA International.
The top-60 and ties on Friday will move on to the second stage of the LPGA Qualifying Tournament, to be held Oct. 9-12, at Plantation Golf and Country Club in Venice, Fla. The top 70 and ties from Stage II will advance into the final Qualifying Tournament Stage III.
The final Stage III Q-school will be contested over 90 holes Nov. 28 through Dec. 2, on both the Champions and Legends courses at LPGA International in Daytona Beach, Fla. Top finishers in the final stage will earn 2013 LPGA membership (total number of cards TBD) and all others who make the cut will receive Symetra Tour status.

I can't believe that this product is rated so low. I have been using this makeup remover for years and it's about the only thing that takes off ALL of my eye makeup! Other makeup removers don't work as well as this product. I've tried high-end kinds like Lancome, but they don't compare! If you can't seem to find a product to take off your stubborn eye makeup, I would highly recommend this one. Works like a charm! I will continue to use this product!
Convenient for travelling and home use. Gentle, doesn't irritate eyes, does its job, removes waterproof mascara and mascara coat, so this is lovely. Hope it can be on sale more often.
I accidentally purchased these instead of the oil free ones I normally get. But i figured why not use them instead of taking them back....big mistake.
They are SO OILY. i understand moisturizing, but it didn't feel good. it felt like i just dumped a bunch of french fry grease on my face.
The biggest thing however was it burned my eyes. I have sensitive eyes, and i wear contacts. It burned my eyes so bad i had to wash my face and lay with a wash cloth over my eyes to relieve the pain. It was awful.
I ended up giving them to my sister and she likes them, so to each their own. I know I will triple check next time to make sure i get the right kind. The oil free ones are amazing and take off all makeup!
I bought this specifically because it contains oil. Oil based removers do a better job of eye makeup removal in my opinion. This is a convenient, inexpensive way to remove eye makeup without tugging or pulling. To those who are complaining that it's oily, well the first ingredient is oil. You use these and then wash off you face with cleanser. It works great.
More reviews by UrbanObsession
Be warned that this product leaves a greasy film behind after removing eye makeup. I give it 2 lippys because it removed my waterproof mascara really well. However, it is not worth it for the way it leaves my eyes feeling afterwards, so greasy that I had to use a tissue to eliminate the film. I would not recommend this to anyone with problem skin. If you want a good eye makeup remover then try the oil-free version, it is so much better!
This makeup remover pads have been super hyped up in the beauty community. I've been on the search for the perfect eye makeup remover. I have super sensitive eyes so its hard to find a remover that doesn't hurt my eyes. There is 80 eye makeup remover pads, which I think is a great amount for what you pay.
Each pad is fairly thin, but VERY saturated with the makeup remover. I love how a pad is a never dry or doesn't have enough remover on it. This does not hurt my eyes, make them irritated at all. I will definitely be using this from now on!
I was really shocked to see such a low rating on these! I love them! I used to use mary kay eye make up remover with the swisper cotton pads but it just wasnt practical considering I didnt know anyone who sold mary kay and I just never found the time to order it online. Not to mention the price ($15) A friend told me about these and i decided to try them. I love them! They do leave your eyes greasy (hence the moisturizing) but thats not a big deal because i wash my face right after it. They are about $7 so pretty good. Will buy again
UPDATE: I came across a mini thing of mary kay eye makeup remover one night and decided to use that instead of my almay ones. There was a HUGE difference. I didn't have to constantly rub at my eyes just to get it on. I just held the mary kay eye makeup remover there and my eye makeup immediatly came off. I fished the rest but did not repurchase.
I have been using these and similar make up remover pads for years and years. They are just pads soaked in mineral oil but are the only thing I've found which will ever soften and remove majorly waterproof mascara without any dragging of the skin. It just melts it right off. Leaves a huge oily mess on your eyes but you're supposed to wash it off or at least wipe it off with a tissue! Leaves my eyes and lashes nice and soft and supple, no stinging at all. it's exactly the same as baby oil-mineral oil.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Does not remove all your eye make up and you need a lot to even remove eyeliner off both eyes! I would not recommend at all.
More reviews by hellokittyprincess
They're ok. I don't find them greasy at all. What I don't like about them is that they don't remove all of my eye makeup, which is the whole purpose. If they worked better, they would be great. I like the whole idea of pre-moistened eye makeup pads over the stuff in bottles, but the pads need to be more moist and the formula needs to work better to get my approval.

Though Crackdown was released in February, the only in-game content to be released for the sandbox shooter actually hit Xbox Live Marketplace before the game was in stores. Developer Realtime Worlds hasn't kept the fact that new content is in the works a secret, but has been tight-lipped about its contents.
That all changed today, as Crackdown community liaison "Agent G" gave gamers a first peek at the upcoming downloadable content. Rather than bullet-point details or list off new features, the rep let a picture speak for itself.
On the official Crackdown forums, Agent G provides a link to a single screenshot (pictured, click to expand), saying that it's a look at a new gametype and a new type of vehicle. In the picture, four dune buggies appear to be speeding across an existing piece of Pacific City, the game's setting.
Crackdown's DLC is expected to be released "soon," and no pricing details have yet been revealed.

Reducing Inappropriate Antibiotic Prescribing by Primary Care Clinicians
Hypotheses and Specific Aims:
The continued emergence of antibiotic-resistance in the outpatient setting underlines the need to responsibly manage antimicrobial prescribing. It is in this context that we seek to test an effective strategy for reducing the inappropriate use of antibiotics in primary care office practices. Our overall objective is to identify an effective and efficient strategy for decreasing the contribution of primary care clinicians to the emergence of antimicrobial-resistant bacteria in the community and to disseminate widely those strategies found to be effective and sustainable.
We hypothesize that implementation of a clinician decision support system, with an active education component, will reduce the inappropriate use of antibiotics in primary care office practices. Our hypothesis is based on the premise that most inappropriate prescribing is the result of multiple factors that include difficulty in distinguishing a benign, self-limited viral infection from a more serious bacterial infection; overdiagnosis of a bacterial infection in cases where there is clinical uncertainty as to the true nature of the illness; and constraints on the time available for clinicians to explain to patients the nature of the illness and the reasons an antibiotic is not indicated.
The focus of this proposal will be to compare the impact of clinical decision support and active education to no intervention for enhancing the appropriate use of antimicrobials for common outpatient infections. In this randomized control trial, primary care providers participating in the intervention arm will receive active education coupled with the implementation of a clinical decision support tool, while providers in the control arm will have no intervention. At the end of the study, providers in the control arm will receive a thorough analysis of their antibiotic prescribing patterns and suggested opportunities for improvement, as well as access to the intervention tools once the study has ended.
Our interdisciplinary team will integrate novel methods in implementation science with clinical and laboratory expertise in infectious diseases, antimicrobial stewardship, primary care, information technology, performance improvement, health services research, and biostatistics. The Specific Aims are constructed to validate our hypothesis in the primary care setting by demonstrating two results of our intervention strategy:
1. Reduced use of antibiotics to treat conditions for which those drugs are known not to be effective
2. Decreased prescribing of broad-spectrum antibiotics to treat common bacterial infections.
The degree of impact in terms of prescriptions per 100 visits for each targeted outpatient infection will be compared with active education and clinical decision support versus no intervention. The study will be able to measure the value of clinical decision support with active education that will inform future efforts in disseminating outpatient antibiotic stewardship interventions.

Acupuncture Practice Management Software
Manage Your Acupuncture Clients, Keep Notes, and Bill, Schedule, and Manage Inventory with Ease
If you are like most acupuncturists, you probably have a small office and only have yourself or a few other staff to rely on to run the day to day business. That means doing your own acupuncture appointment scheduling, billing, inventory management, financial and other reporting in addition to seeing patients. Some of you may even take an entire day or more out of your week to come into the office to get these things done. Either that means seeing less clients, or less free time for yourself.
Use AcuBase Pro for:
- creating greater efficiencies at your office with practice and patient preferences
- creating master forms for patients who have multi-session treatments
- easily creating Superbills or electronic CMS 1500 insurance billing
- tracking herbs and formulas from our inventory management section
- creating notes for patients you see over time

Recap: San Francisco vs. Oakland
San Francisco, CA (SportsNetwork.com) - Scott Kazmir justified his All-Star selection by firing seven scoreless innings, while Stephen Vogt knocked in three runs at the plate in the Oakland Athletics' 6-1 victory over the San Francisco Giants.
Josh Donaldson added a two-run homer as part of a 2-for-3 day that helped the Athletics close out the home-and-home Bay Bridge Series with wins in three of the four matchups. Vogt, Brandon Moss and John Jaso also finished with a pair of hits.
Kazmir (11-3) only allowed three hits and a walk while racking up nine strikeouts in an outstanding final appearance before Tuesday's Midsummer Classic in Minneapolis.
"From pitch one I felt comfortable," Kazmir stated. "I was able to get some quick outs and use all my pitches."
Tim Hudson (7-6) wasn't nearly as effective for San Francisco, with the onetime Oakland standout rocked for six runs and nine hits over 5 1/3 innings to drop a fourth consecutive decision.
"He was a little off today," said Giants manager Bruce Bochy. "Today he wasn't quite as sharp and didn't have quite the same action on his sinker and changeup."
Kazmir didn't permit a hit until Mike Morse singled to open the bottom of the fifth inning. The left-hander was working with a 2-0 lead at the time after the A's put up single runs in both the second and top of the fifth.
A single by Moss and a walk to Donaldson led to Oakland's initial run, with both runners advancing on a groundout and Alberto Callaspo sending Moss home with a fly ball to center.
Hudson cruised through the next two frames and got the first two A's out in the fifth, but then served Jaso's triple into the gap in right center that preceded Vogt's first RBI hit of the afternoon.
Oakland broke the game open an inning later, with Donaldson following a Moss double with an opposite-field homer to stake the A's to a 4-0 advantage. They tacked on two more runs in the sixth courtesy of Vogt, who reached reliever Javier Lopez for a single after Oakland loaded the bases to chase Hudson with one out.
San Francisco finally threatened Kazmir in the fifth, putting two in scoring position on Morse's single and Gregor Blanco's two-out double in front of Hudson's inning-ending flyout. Kazmir stranded two more in the sixth, fanning Morse for the final out of the frame to maintain Oakland's 6-0 margin.
"A couple innings he kind of battled out of some trouble," said Donaldson. "But for the most part, he just did what he normally does, and that's get outs and put up zeros."
The Giants foiled Oakland's shutout bid on three eighth-inning singles off Dan Otero, with Pablo Sandoval recording the last to bring home Ehire Adrianza.

This is the first stage of the enterprise's process of expansion. The Prior License granted will enable the stockholders to assess and decide upon the best opportunity for Veracel's expansion.
Veracel filed the application for this license with Bahia State's environmental body in December 2007. In 2009 IMA (Institute for the Environment) – now Inema – put Public Workshops in place, where Terms of Reference were discussed, leading to the environmental agency's setting Veracel's guidelines for carrying out the Environmental Impact Study for the expansion process. In 2011 Inema held Public Audiences where this study was presented and discussed.
In accordance with the Resolution published in this Thursday's DiárioOficial (14th March), the license granted by Inema is valid for 4 (four) years, for expansion of the bleached eucalyptus pulp manufacturing unit, with nominal production capacity of 1,500,000adt/year, side by side with Veracel's present production line and a 93,000 hectare actually planted forest base spread out over the municipalities of Belmonte, Canavieiras, Encruzilhada, Guaratinga, Itabela, Itapetinga, Itagimirim, Itarantim, Itapebi, Maiquinique, Macarani, Mascote, Porto Seguro andPotiraguá, by means of compliance with current legislation and the ongoing conditions set out in the Resolution governing the process.

I happened to go to the Lee Valley website looking at their drawer divider channels and noticed they are offering free shipping on orders over $40. Today is the last day. This is for all of their items, not just the divider channels. What else have people used from them that they recommend ?

Can't remember what I was looking for on leevalley.com, but found cool rare earth magnets. They come with a screw attached so that the very OCD can have refrigerator magnets that match their cabinet knobs. But I said, "Aha! I can use these to make a concealed towel bar inside my sink!" (The swing-arm Magisso one is so cool but so expensive.) So I've got a cabinet pull with two of the screw-mounted magnets, and two little magnets on the unfinished side of my sink to hold it all together. It doesn't swing like the Magisso, but works well for me. As you can see, when I'm in the middle of a big job I don't always use it: |

The microplane zester and holder are one of my most frequently used kitchen gadgets. Perfect for everything from ginger to parmesan, lemon zest to nutmeg. They slide together for storage. Love it! |

Thanks ! Those both look like great items to add. I checked the shipping charges table. Normal shipping for an order over $40 is $9.95, so free shipping is a big savings. |
Thanks angela! I ordered my drawer dividers and a bunch of other stuff too. |
- Posted by angela12345 (My Page) on Mon, Sep 24, 12 at 23:38
You're welcome marti8a !! What else did you get ? My order is placed. I also got these nail / vegetable brushes ... p.s. here is where you change your email address ... |
Besides the drawer dividers, I got the magnets and the grater, plus the pocket pin magnet. My mom used to have those nail/vegetable brushes. They work great. |
Bummer- missed out this time. Love the rasper! |

You're welcome breezy. I also private messaged a2gemini to let her know. I feel like I have done my good deed for today. : ) I swear I don't stalk that website. I just happened to luck up and catch the free shipping sales the only couple times I have ever been on that site. For those that only read the last post ... Free Shipping at Lee Valley |

Whew! Just got my order in! I couldn't tell if they were using east coast time or west coast so I just squeaked my order in before the east coast cut-off. I'm west coast and forget that sometimes the world doesn't revolve around my time zone. I ended up with 40 drawer dividers and the cookie/bacon rack. I might have perused more and more carefully figured my divider needs, but had to make a hasty decision. Besides, by the time DH actually installs the 40 dividers I just ordered, Lee Valley will probably have another sale! ;) Thanks again, Angela! |
Way to go! Now we can mess up our Wolf ovens together! baking bacon! - but never self clean before a holiday... I might have to check the ultimate bacon book by Ari Weinsman (owner of Zingermans)- I forget the actual name. |

Thanks Angela, Lee Valley is my favorite site! We got our trash/recycling pullout from them last year. It is identical to the one by Rev-A-Shelf, but considerably less expensive. I regularly get a dozen of the white plastic surgeon's scrub brushes. I use them for washing my hands, for dishes, veggies, the dog, stains,.... Love their heavy-duty Lifetime measuring cups and spoons, their classic kitchen scale, the stainless book holder, and the knife block. The knife block is like nothing you have ever seen. It does not have a wooden top with slots, it is closely packed with plastic coffee stir straws and you put the knives in wherever you want. You find most of the kitchen things in the "Gift" catalogue. The "Tool" catalogue will have you drooling, too. I have used their rare earth magnets, taped to the inside bottom of a plastic pail, to keep my lint pail on top of the dryer. It does not go anywhere until I pick it up to empty it on garbage day. From the Gardening catalog I highly recommend their Self-Watering Seed Starting kits. I also bought their very cool Water-Powered Weeder, which uses brass tubing to narrow the water from your hose down to a powerful, focused digging tool that you can use to follow the long roots of undesirable plants down deep into the ground in order to get all of it up and disposed of. It makes weeding fun. Muddy, but fun! Their water-filled Frost Protectors are red plastic segmented envelopes that you use to surround your tomato plants with. You can then put them in the ground weeks earlier because they will survive the frost inside these protectors. The sun warms the water all day and the water keeps the plants warm enough for early spring nights. And of course, they sell the Rimroller. For those who love Tim Horton's in late winter, just before the Stanley Cup Playoffs start, when you "Roll up the Rim to Win," a man named Paul Kind invented a tool that cuts the cup rim as you push the tool over the rim, and unrolls it as you pull it quickly back up. Lee Valley sells these doohickeys for $2.50US, $2 if you buy 5 or more. I pass them out to friends and to friendly Tim's drive-through staffers. For some unknown reason. Tim's has never bought these for their stores. I have a dream of someday having a pocketful of money and my rollator walker in the car and going to London, On, CA and shopping the store in person. |

Free shipping is once again on at Lee Valley. So it looks like this is approximately once a quarter ?? Do people want me to keep letting you know about these, or stop these posts ? Let me know. : ) Also, if you DO want to know and don't want to miss the next sale, you can reply to this thread and check that you want to receive notifications. Free Shipping at Lee Valley |

Sorry, I got the email a few days ago and just now noticed it. And I missed the free shipping email last quarter all together (it was May 29 - June 9). Here is the newest one ... Free Shipping at Lee Valley Please continue to add to this thread what other things you get from them that you recommend ! I *love* the things I have purchased from them on other's recommendations !! |
I recently had a birthday and I requested the Danish Dough hook from Lee Valley. We have a LV in our city, so I also picked out the little weigh scale. The double masher we got elsewhere :-) |
- Posted by angela12345 (My Page) on Mon, Sep 8, 14 at 9:22
I don't bake bread. I have been trying to figure out what or how the dough hook is used ? |
I love my dough whisk. Bought mine 9 yrs ago at the King Arthur Flour flagship store in Vermont. It was the first time I'd ever seen one. It's a great tool for muffins and quick breads, when you want to combine the wet and dry ingredients without over mixing them. I use it for waffle, pancake and brownie batter, too. Great simple tool! |
I made bran muffins on the weekend and it was so quick to mix. I'm going to use mine for mixing meatloaf, too. It's easy to over-mix ground beef. |

Head on Over to Half Dozen Daily to check it out. She's actually raising funds for two separate charities and in return for a donation, she's giving away that fabulous bag you see above. I have purchased a camera strap cover from Carla last year. It is the prettiest, most comfortablist (new word) camera strap ever. Love it!!
I will be donating to her charities because I would love to win this cute tote!
In other great news. I found that elusive blogger Judy, who I only found out is back thanks to Carla's charity drive/giveaway. I saw her comment and realized it had to be her. I have missed her and I bet you have too!
She's Just Making Her Way Back so go on over and give her a big welcome back if you haven't already.
