I'm an avid reader of Shop-Eat-Surf because it's really the only online newsletter that I have found that is not only industry related, but also because it's not so "guy-centric." I find that a lot of the information I read on the site pertains to my business (as a swimwear designer) and keeps me up to date on what other companies and other women in the industry in general are doing which is not only inspiring but also helps me gauge the future direction of my business as well.
I feel privileged to read the Executive Edition because I know I am getting insider industry information before it hits the mainstream media channels. And it's always good to know what my friends are up to in the industry.
- By Monica Wise, Founder, L*SpaceThere is no better publication that I am aware of that is so accurate and on top of any news and developments in our industry. I personally recommend it to many people that want to know and understand more about our industry. For the most part, shop-eat-surf.com gets the stories first. As a matter of fact, I require all the executives in our company to read it.

Press Release:
PHILADELPHIA, May 16, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Urban Outfitters, Inc. (Nasdaq:URBN - News), a leading lifestyle specialty retail company operating under the Anthropologie, Free People, BHLDN, Terrain and Urban Outfitters brands, today announced net income of $39 million or earnings per diluted share of $0.23 for the three months ended April 30, 2011.
Total Company net sales rose by 9% over the same quarter last year to $524 million. Comparable retail segment net sales, which include our direct-to-consumer channels, decreased 1% for the quarter while comparable store net sales decreased 5% for the quarter.
Comparable retail segment net sales at Free People and Urban Outfitters increased 30%, and 1%, respectively, while comparable retail segment net sales at Anthropologie decreased 6% for the quarter. Direct-to-consumer comparable net sales increased 15% and wholesale segment net sales rose 22% for the quarter.
"I am confident that we are on the right course to bring our business back to its high standards," said Chief Executive Officer, Glen T. Senk. "I am encouraged by the progress each of the brands have made and anticipate improvements to occur gradually during the balance of this fiscal year," finished Senk.
For the first quarter ended April 30, 2011, gross profit margin percentage declined by 493 basis points versus the prior year's comparable period. This decline was primarily due to increased merchandise markdowns to clear slow moving inventory primarily associated with women's apparel at both Anthropologie and Urban Outfitters and a non-recurring loss associated with the sell-off of Leifsdottir wholesale inventories during the current quarter.
As of April 30, 2011, total comparable retail segment inventories (which includes our direct-to-consumer channel) increased by 6% at cost while total comparable store inventory increased by 1% at cost. Total inventories grew by $42 million or 19%, on a year-over-year basis, primarily due to the acquisition of inventory to stock new retail stores, as well as, inventory to support growth in the direct-to-consumer channel.
For the first quarter ended April 30, 2011, selling, general and administrative expenses, expressed as a percentage of net sales, increased by 96 basis points. This increase was primarily due to the deleveraging of store operating costs as a result of the negative comparable store net sales for the three months ended April 30, 2011.
Additionally contributing to the deleverage in the quarter were investments in new technology, non-recurring transition costs associated with Leifsdottir and planned transition costs for our new distribution and fulfillment facilities in Europe.
On November 16, 2010, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase program that authorized the repurchase of 10 million common shares subject to prevailing market conditions. During the quarter ended April 30, 2011, the Company repurchased and retired 4.8 million common shares for approximately $149 million.
These repurchases completed the Company's 2006 share repurchase program leaving 5.7 million shares available for repurchase under the 2010 share repurchase program.
During the three months ended April 30, 2011, the Company opened a total of 10 new stores including: 5 Free People stores, 2 Urban Outfitters stores and 3 Anthropologie stores.
Urban Outfitters, Inc. is an innovative specialty retail company which offers a variety of lifestyle merchandise to highly defined customer niches through 178 Urban Outfitters stores in the United States, Canada, and Europe, catalogs and websites; 156 Anthropologie stores in the United States, Canada and Europe, catalogs and websites; Free People wholesale, which sells its product to approximately 1,400 specialty stores and select department stores; 47 Free People stores, catalogs and website, 1 Terrain garden center and website and a BHLDN website as of April 30, 2011.

The Cornwall region
Cornwall's visitors are constantly tempted back to the beautiful coastline, tiny fishing villages, hidden coves and the world-class surfing. Whatever the reason, Cornwall has long cemented its place as one of Britain's premier holiday destinations.
With winding cobbled streets and a harbour full of boats, Mevagissey is the perfect Cornish fishing village. Leading along the coast in both directions are stunning walks past sandy beaches, high cliffs and hidden coves to explore. The village itself has a good selection of restaurants and pubs whilst the local area is full of excellent holiday activities. The Lost Gardens of Heligan are just a short drive away, the Mevagissey to Fowey ferry runs daily between Easter and September and the harbour at Charlestown is home to a number of Tall Ships. Also nearby is the world famous Eden Project, just 11 miles away, which features fascinating tropical biomes. No matter what the time of year, this lovely area of Cornwall has something for everyone.

"A wonderfully well equiped delightful cottage within easy reach of the pictureseque harbour"
The cottage is a delight. 3 well appointed bedrooms, large living/dining room with well equipped kitchen. Within easy walking distance of the harbour and the bars and restaurants along the harbour. The public car park, for which there is a permit, is a minutes walk away from the cottage.

Go little or go home. At Genesis Health System, we're trying to imagine a world where people don't always think bigger is better, but in fact, that less is more. Why? Because when it comes to minimally invasive procedures, it is. Thanks to small incisions, there's less tissue damage, less scaring and a lot less pain. But perhaps one of the best things about minimally invasive surgery is that it takes a lot less time to recover. Which in turn gives you much more time to get back to enjoying your life.

La Libanesa Bakery changed hands before May 2013 and reopened under new owners and a new name. It no longer offers the superb middle eastern pastries, great coffee and personal service as its previous owners.
My wife and I enjoyed breakfast here a few days. It was much cheaper than the hotel and offered authentic Puerto Rican pastries and breakfast items. We enjoyed the cafe con lech and breakfast sandwiches on our way to the local beaches. The service was great and everyone was friendly.
Right on the corner, and worth a stop for a breakfast sweet. Bring some wet wipes or something so you can wipe away the sticky fantastic goodness that your pasteles will undoubtedly have. You'll get a couple napkins if you ask, but no utensils or plates and there's no bathroom. Just sayin. :)
You can only go to La Rosa Inglesa so many times and eat the hotel breakfast so many times before the cost consumes you. Thus, venture just outside the pueblo to this place. Remember, the local residents love coming here because it's CHEAP. $0.70 for a small coffee? Two cafes, two pastries, under $3 every time. You can't beat that.... More
Yes, this is just a bakery, and my expectations were not high, but the front of the bakery was full of trash. Once I got to the front of the line (there were 10+ people in line) i was told their espresso machine was not working, and we passed on the food, which looked dismal. If your main concern is... More
OMG! This bakery has the best sandwiches you will ever taste!
excellent coffee and a good breakfast, right in downtown rincon, and very inexpensive
One of the only bakeries in this town. Has great, fresh coffee and flan & pastries for breakfast as well.
If you want a quick, light and yummy breakfast then this is a good choice. The coffee with milk is very tasty, like Starbucks but a quarter of the price. The bread they make the sandwiches on is sweet and tasty. Cheese and ham sandwich plus coffee is the thing to eat.
Two Cafes con leche, two pastries = $2.78. Cheap, good food. A no frills bakery + eatery in the Puerto Rican style. Would definitely go there again. Coffee was great, pastries were very tasty. And it is located right in downtown Rincon.

VIDEO: Hodgson knocks down an undefeated Howard squad Hodgson's Ray Jones led the Silver Eagles to a 45-0 victory against the Howard Wildcats on Saturday afternoon. In the opening quarter, Jones proved he could do it all. He scored three rushing touchdowns, kicked extra points, and that was just on offense. The junior also showed his defensive skills by catching an interception on the 16 yard line. The quarterback ran touchdowns for 38, 10, and 12 yards to give the Silver Eagles (3-2) the early 20-0 lead with 2:52 left in the first quarter. In the second, Bilal Nichols scored two touchdowns of his own. Nichols caught touchdown receptions from Jones for 24 and 40 yards. Before halftime, Hodgson's senior Justin Hardy scored a 42 yard touchdown with 52 seconds left. Hodgson led 39-0 at the break. With a running clock in motion, Daniel Diggs rushed for an eight yard touchdown in the second half, and the Silver Eagles handed Howard (4-1) its first loss of the season. |

Every time I hear of a web services failure, like the Google Mail crash yesterday, I'm reminded of a vendor briefing that my colleague Jay Heiser and I received from a small enterprise GRC platform vendor, Xactium, a few weeks ago. Xactium has built a GRC cloud computing solution on salesforce's force.com platform — a pretty cool strategy when you think about it. This way they don't have to maintain the platform and hosting, and they can just focus on the application functionality. From a customer perspective, you know that at least there is a big vendor, salesforce.com, supporting the platform.
But my colleague Jay asked Xactium: "What happens if you fail? What recourse do your customers have?"
Xactium responded that the data would still be there on force.com, and there are many companies that would have the ability to help the customer get to that data.
Xactium's answer made a good point — the use of a well-accepted web services platform like force.com in and of itself helps to mitigate the viability risks of working with a small vendor — and for a non-strategic application of Xactium, that should be okay.
But then Jay asked, "What if salesforce itself goes away? What then?"
Silence on the line — then Xactium said they'd think about that one.
Another vendor risk management option might be to mirror the data and back-up key reports on your own servers — neither of which incurs significant expense. Escrowing the application may be an option as well, but who's escrowing the web services platform?
So — you're probably thinking, salesforce.com going away is pretty unlikely, right? I agree, but …. The day after the vendor briefing, this was in the news: Three Executives Leave Salesforce.com
By the way, Xactium is too small to make the EGRC platform magic quadrant — but keep an eye on them — using force.com to deliver a GRC SaaS solution is still a pretty cool idea.

Management 'Scared' by Open Source
Re:The main reason is lack of clear knowledge (373 comments)
I certainly appreciate that a lexer/parser generator can save me months of work. And as I mentioned in my original post, I'm using one. When I did my Google search for parser generators, I found several, and I chose the one that was public domain over BSD and GPL ones because the license makes it easy to use. I was unable to judge merit having not used any of them before, but ANTLR did not look markedly inferior to the alternatives. (Some lexer/parser generators, including ANTLR, require distributing a runtime with your application, not just the output code; thus the license is relevant. Bison/Flex was not an option as we are not using C).
I think you are overestimating my aversion to BSD code. Like I said, the situation where using BSD code would save me months of work has not yet come up (because there is more public domain code out there than you might think), and in that situation I would use it. Also, if our project had already incorporated some BSD code and therefore had precedent (approval from management/legal, a CREDITS file or equivalent to put the attribution in) I would be more comfortable.

text: SO I'm stuck in a spot where I'm lingering with the same 2 lbs for almost 3 weeks already. I'm having period issues right now which I can use as my excuse but I'm also now on BC (Yaz) and don't know if that has anything to do with it. I even eliminated some of my night time snacks as I thought that was my downfall (it's so hard to give them up too). Any suggestions what to do about the plateauing?

This is my fourth IMAGINI purchase, but by far the most beautiful one...the quality is outstanding and the design is superb... I have purchased the X-Large, but I also could have bought the Large, as the fabric has a wonderful stretch to it. The fabric is kind of a soft knit and the length is perfect..Keep those beautiful sweaters and sets coming, as they will last you for a very long time

using a variable for xml node values
I am using simpleXml and I am wondering if it is possible to do something like this with it:
PHP Code:$simpleXmlName = "'".$xmlName."'"; // sets up value for simple xml tag name
$newSimpleXML = new SimpleXMLElement($newValue);
$newSimpleXML->{$simpleXmlName} = $status;
//instead of:
$newSimpleXML->{'node-value'} = $status;
Any suggestions?
Thanks a lot

you don't need the quotes. these are only to denote a string ("node-value" may be a valid tag name, but not a valid variable name, hence the quotes), so $newSimpleXML->{$xmlName}
should IMO suffice.

Location: Lincoln House, 113 Brattle Street, Cambridge, MA 02138
Speakers: Peter R. Stein and Laura Johnson
Non-government organizations (NGOs) all around the world are engaged in innovative land conservation activity. Many of these initiatives are being modeled on American land trusts, but also involve strategies that go well beyond the U.S. land trust toolkit. Peter Stein, the 2012-2013 Kingsbury Browne Fellow at the Lincoln Institute of Land Policy, will share the breadth of these private land conserving efforts across the globe and highlight select examples of individual NGO action and networked associations. The presentation will include a comprehensive examination of innovative NGO land conservation activity in more than 35 countries across the globe, many of them relying on growing information networks of NGO practitioners from New Zealand to Chile. He will also reflect on his personal experience as one of the many architects of the U.S. land trust movement over the past 35 years, and the potential for establishing an international network. Laura Johnson, immediate past President of Massachusetts Audubon Society, will offer a brief commentary on the presentation.

NIMH Director Steven Hyman to return to Harvard; NAMI praises his leadership as "A hard act to follow"Statement by NAMI President Jim McNulty, For Immediate Release: October 29, 2001 |
Since 1996, Steven E. Hyman, M.D. has served with distinction as a brilliant, dynamic, outspoken director of the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), presiding over an agency with more than 1,000 scientists and budget of $1.2 billion. He will be a hard act for anyone to follow.
Under Dr. Hyman, NIMH's budget nearly doubled, and the agency played a more forceful role in setting the nation's scientific research agenda in mental illnesses. He challenged traditional research and achieved greater emphasis on the brain and molecular biology, as well as the mind and behavior.
Dr. Hyman understood the importance of connecting pure scientific research to clinical insights and practices. He helped to initiate large-scale studies seeking to identify more effective, real world treatments for schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, and other severe mental illnesses. He also played a leading role in collaborating with the White House and the U.S. Surgeon General to produce landmark reports and conferences on mental illness in adults and children. He helped to establish the nation's baseline for future research and treatment.
NAMI also honors Dr. Hyman for significant leadership to ensure greater protections for consumers who participate in clinical research, and to increase the role of consumers and families in shaping NIMH priorities and families. We wish him well as he prepares to return to Harvard University to assume the office of Provost in December 2001. We look forward to continued friendship with him, and opportunities for future collaboration.

Amen to that.
You can imagine I'm having a heck of a time trying sort it all out.
Such a "comedy of errors" here.
I didn't know my keyboard could send 7-bit RPNs until now.
It sends low then high RPN param number, when everybody says
it ought to be high then low. Yet no real harm it's only the param nums.
So I think "Yay I've got a true HW source to test with".
So I select an RPN parameter - 7-bits on this old KB and many other devices -
and then operate the 'data' slider and I'm sitting in MusE going
"Why is ALSA seq giving me separate controller events?"
Well, seems ALSA has no such 7-bit (N)RPN support, only 14-bit.
So I think, "Even if ALSA could take a 7-bit and deliver me a 14-bit with
the high value, it ain't working here!".
If so, I'm thinking it's because the data slider messages aren't full RPN
messages - the data slider simply sends data H.
A few ironies:
That it seems I must now manually encode these separated 7-bit RPN
ALSA seq events into our internal 'compact' RPN controller type.
Darn, maybe we ought to just go with ALSA RAW and DIY the whole thing.
That regardless, I must make my own full encoding code anyway for
our Jack midi driver, because Jack midi delivers separate events.
But that's totally understandable :)
That I might pass received Jack midi events back through an ALSA encoder
and then back to MusE, yet I'd still need my own 7-bit RPN encoder.
That apart from dealing with single 14-bit controls, one must also be
prepared to support separate coarse and fine user controls.
Meaning any order MSB or LSB, any time.
For that reason I am totally discounting anything to do with checking
any 'time delay', which I have read about. I'll just try to work with values
as is. See my 'options' below.
That our internal 'compact' event types are ultimately just decoded
again before they are sent to any external midi port. But they are
useful internally, for example for sending to soft synth control ports.
Luckily, we have some options.
We have output instruments, and I've just added input instruments.
Our instruments support user definition of special 'compact' internal
14-bit CC, and 7/14-bit RPN and NRPN controllers, and full 'Program'.
So when our driver receives midi it can now refer to the chosen input
instrument with some new options, for what kind of behaviour to expect
from controllers, to help determine our internal 'compact' controller type.
The reason for the original question is that I was trying to decide
between two or three new 14-bit instrument/controller options:
'Verbose': Either MSB or LSB are encoded anytime anywhere,
together with their last LSB/MSB counterpart, initial zero.
Good for separate coarse and fine controls. The midi ideal.
We get two different encoded 14-bit internal events, but hey,
it makes sense here.
'Unified': Wait for LSB.
Good for a single 14-bit control - *if* it always sends LSB.
Possible third option *if* I should never expect an LSB:
'Verbose with LSB fill': Encode LSB anytime together with last MSB,
same as 'Verbose'. But encode MSB anytime with a filled LSB
(0 or 127 depending on MSB delta).
This MSB delta check ensures a smoother transition.
Since we'll end up with two different encoded 14-bit events, we might as
well make the MSB encoded one have a smart LSB so that the next
LSB will make it continue on the same upward or downward *trend*
Of course with all of this, I'm betting on MSB always arriving *before*
any possible LSB. Which I know is supposed to be the convention,
but I hate to think that some reverse it. Oh well, looks like 'Verbose' mode
for those guys... But I even read one product only sent LSB for 7-bit.
A 'reverse MSB/LSB' option? Hate the thought of having to do that,
and some products might even reverse anytime or in mid-stream...
I had thought we might 'tell' ALSA seq exactly what to expect from input
controllers, but instead it seems to try to guess by itself. Hm, magic?
Hey thanks for listening.

True love or transition guy? Widow needs to know
Advice columnist Carolyn Hax answers questions about transition relationships and debt.
Syndicated columnist
DEAR CAROLYN: Two years ago my husband died of cancer. I grieved hard.
But back in July, I decided I am ready to date.
Strangely enough, my first time out of the gate I met someone with whom I am extremely compatible. He likes me too — a lot.
But, in his own words, he is terrified because he believes he is my transition guy and, in his mind, transition guy can never be long-term guy. He thinks I simply don't know what else is out there and I need to explore.
I'm not that interested in exploring. I should add that he split from his second wife a year ago, so he is in a transition, too.
Can a transition relationship never become a real relationship?
— Anonymous
DEAR ANONYMOUS: Yes, of course, transitions can become permanent.
A funny thing happens when your goal becomes one of persuasion, though: Where you might once have been open to letting this relationship run its natural course, whatever that may be, you're now invested in having it become a long-term committed relationship.
It's impossible to have a relationship without any external concerns, hopes or influences, but you still want to get as close as you reasonably can to creating conditions where the relationship lives or dies on its own merits.
Embrace the fact that neither of you can think for the other; or know where things are going; or know who's right, if anyone, about if the transition issue is even relevant — then use that as the root of your positions on this subject.
Such as: "Maybe you're right that transition guy can never be long-term guy. Let's find out by giving it a shot, instead of quitting before we start." Or: "I get the 'see what's out there' idea. I just don't feel that urge myself." Or: "Sure, you don't want to get hurt — or maybe this is really about me as transition girl? What do you say we move slowly?" Validating someone's concerns tends to be a lot more productive than reaching for ways to disprove them. And if he never drops his guard, then that's who he is, not who you made him be.
DEAR CAROLYN: My husband and I both want another child, but despite our best efforts to be thrifty, we find ourselves in ever-deepening debt after having our first baby a year ago, buying our first house and buying a (used) car after someone totaled our old one.
We have options for making more money, but we both get so stressed just looking at our budget situation, we avoid it.
I know this is untenable, and an irresponsible place from which to consider having a second child. Can you help?
DEAR H.: Can you sit down and decide which of those potential new income sources to pursue, how best to pursue them while ensuring good care for your baby, and how quickly you can start? Can you recognize your budget situation is too stressful to face alone, and make an appointment for help through the National Foundation for Credit Counseling (www.nfcc.org)? Can you stick to the resulting debt-management plan? Can you recognize that all this is essential, right now, even if you decide not to add to your family?

BOSTON — A little more than three weeks into the season, there are few consistent truths about the Red Sox' performance so far. One of them is this: Boston has been bad defensively.
There are legitimate excuses for this — injuries to Shane Victorino and Will Middlebrooks, the youth up the middle of Xander Bogaerts. But the Red Sox can't deny that their defense has been below average.
"We've given some extra outs," manager John Farrell said after Tuesday's loss. "At this level, when you do that, you're asking for trouble. We have to go out and execute with greater efficiency."
The hard thing to figure out is exactly how bad the defense has been. How much is it costing Boston in the first few weeks of the season?
Entering play on Wednesday, the Red Sox had committed 14 errors — tied for the sixth-most in the American League. Boston's two errors on Tuesday led to five unearned runs, which equaled the amount they allowed in all of April last season. If Mike Napoli makes a play he usually does in the top of the fifth, four Yankees runs don't score in that frame.
But errors and unearned runs and fielding percentage paint a very narrow portrait of team defense. Errors are subject to the vagaries of a scorekeeper and baseball's fairly stringent definition of an error. For instance, Derek Jeter saw a ball go through his legs on Wednesday, and it went for a hit.
Those who have watched the Red Sox with any regularity have seen their fair share of similar plays that, while not errors, should have been made. On Tuesday, Grady Sizemore broke late on a sinking line drive into right field. As he slid to try to make the catch, the ball bounced out of his glove. Ruled a hit, it placed more stress on starter Jon Lester.
Another way of examining the play of a defense is to look broadly at a pitching staff's batting average on balls in play. In other words, how well does a defense turn contact into outs?
The Red Sox entered Wednesday allowing a .326 average on balls in play — the second-highest in the A.L. Not all of this is attributable to bad defense, as you can't expect Boston defenders to glove every sharply hit ball. But 21 games is starting to resemble more of a meaningful team-wide sample size, especially in relation to the roughly league average .294 the Red Sox allowed on balls in play last season.
More player-specific measures such as defensive runs saved and ultimate zone rating don't grade the Sox kindly. Bogaerts is already five runs below average at short. Sizemore is four runs below average in center, which is why Bradley is going to play there a lot almost regardless of how he performs offensively.
"You're taking guys that are gaining experience at the major-league level, which is going to be different than any minor-league setting that they've ever been involved in," Farrell said of Bogaerts and Bradley. "The talent is there, the work ethic is there. And yet we've got to ride the ebb and flow a little bit, because of the inexperience."
The good news is that the imminent returns of Victorino and Middlebrooks should lend some stability back to the defense. Fresh off his deserved Gold Glove, Victorino can patrol right field as well as anyone in baseball. Middlebrooks isn't that caliber of a defender, but he's better and more consistent than replacement options Jonathan Herrera and Brock Holt.
Furthermore, Victorino's return can sort out what has been a bit of a mess in the outfield. Grady Sizemore started the season in center field, moved to left once Jackie Bradley, Jr. staked his claim to center, and has now played right of late. For a lifelong center fielder with little practice time in the corners, it's been a whirlwind for Sizemore.
With Victorino back in the fold, Sizemore can presumably focus on left field.
"We see him as more of a corner outfielder at this point than in center field," Farrell said. "We're doing what we can to shorten down that curve to being more efficient."
"He's doing the best he can with it," said first-base coach Arnie Beyeler, who works with the outfielders. "He's doing what he needs to do, he works at it. It's all he can do. It's what we need right now, and he's been willing to jump on that and attack it. We're fortunate he's athletic enough to do that."

This is the 3rd consecutive HOT Texas summer we've spent so far in our home (built in 1952; 1,600 sqft). The pier & beam house is an "L-shaped" ranch style (mostly brick/stone) and has never cooled or heated properly since we've lived in it. The inside Heat/AC unit is positioned towards one "end" of the home in a small hallway closet surrounded by our 3 bedrooms and 1 small bathroom. At the other end of the "L" shape is our den, laundry room, and 2nd bathroom. The areas in between include our kitchen, dining room, and front living room. The house gets hotter the farther away from the unit you get.
Just before our current heat wave hit, we decided to bite the bullet and get some work done to the AC--obviously in hopes that it would make our home COOL this summer. We have the expensive electric bills each time this year...so why not make it worthy and have a COOL house?!!?!! Well, we're about 6 weeks past the repairs and it is barely better than before. We had the coil in the furnace unit replaced (leaking and dirty); the furnace closet properly sealed inside and more ventilation area added; and all the air ducts redone. Also, something on the outside unit was clogged?...and thus fixed after I complained at the lack of improvement with the initial repairs. From May 26 to June 26, we used almost 2,800kWH of electricity......our unit can not maintain a cooler temperature of 79 to 82 degrees (depending on how hot it gets outside). Also, this is the thermostat reading located in the bedroom hallway...the cooler part of the home! I'm dreading our next electric bill...its been hotter since that meter was read last! It seems like the unit never shuts off! I am no energy consultant/expert here, but we're bound to be experiencing INSULATION problems, or the lack there of!!! Can or would anyone please direct me in the right direction to tackle our HOT issue? Thank you!!! AMBER |

Get a certified energy rater to evaluate the whole house and identify the low-hanging fruit for you. Check in to local programs that might pay for the energy rater. |

Thank you Ionized! Do you know how to find such an energy rater or go about checking into local programs available in one's area? (I'm in Fort Worth, TX.) |
You can find a rater at http://www.resnet.us/ Finding local programs will involve some leg work. Utilities sometimes have them or participate in them. Check the web site of your local electrical power provider. You might find listings of local incentive programs at resnet, http://www.energystar.gov/ or http://www.energy.gov/. Google might be your best friend. There are often sizable groups of environmentally-active people in communities. These zealot organizations might be able to steer you towards energy-efficiency programs. I can not say the best way to find them. They are often into solar or wind power so that might help. Your Texas Land Grant University, whatever that is called, will probably be a good source of energy efficiency programs. The local energy raters themselves should know what incentives might be available. Incentives vary from tax rebates and deductions to low interest rate loans. Read up on the energy rating/evaluation process, find 3 raters and call them. They can't tell you what to do with your home without doing a full evaluation on site, but ask them what they might expect you should do with your house after a brief description of the building. They should be able to tell you what might be typical of that kind of home. Just do not expect it to come out exactly that way. Ask all of them what incentives are available. This will be your phone interview. Choose one based on that. Ah, this might be a good link. http://www.dsireusa.org/ |
There are 2 sides to the heating/cooling equations: 1) Cooling the air. You've addressed that already, at least partially. If the air coming out of the farthest vent is significantly warmer or lower flow than the closer vents, the problem isn't fixed yet. 2) Keeping the cool air in your home. Doesn't sound like you addressed that yet. You can pump in all the cool air you want, but if it is escaping rapidly, it won't keep the house cool. Make sure windows, doors, outlets etc are air tight. A common leak is around ceiling lighting. Is the attic vented? How is it insulated? Are you pulling the shades on sunny windows during the day? A lot of heat is getting in somewhere. If you aren't comfortable tracking it down yourself, an energy audit will help you do it. |
I like all the ideas presented. Something we did to help maintain the envelope of cool air in the summer and warm air in the winter in our home was to avoid opening the front and back door, which open directly into the living room. Instead, we use our small laundry room as our "air lock". We enter the house from the garage, pass through the laundry room, through another closed door to the kitchen. Therefore the concentration of air transfer is in the small laundry room, not the whole house. I have books from back in the 1970's for building or creating an air-lock on your front door to improve energy efficiency. It's as sound an idea now as it was then. I made insulated curtains (two layers thick) to go over our front and back door - even though they are double-paned windows in them AND covered by a vented storm door. Our front entrance area would gain 5-10 degrees just from the reflection of sun off the white garage doors of the home across the street coming through the glass on the door and the side-light. Do you still use a lot of incandescent lights? They put out an awful lot of heat. We installed UV blocking screens on the west side of our home, added awnings, and screen the deck from the harsh west sun exposure with vines on trellises. The more layers of protection you can add, the better. Just as having a well-insulated attic doesn't quite get the job done if you have old, drafty windows. BTW - Make sure the windows are locked, not just shut. Those locks make the window much tighter than just shutting them. Another thing we do is to leave one garage door open about 6-inches (we place a wire grid over the opening to keep "pests" out. Open the back door so air can breeze through the storm door. We also move the trap door off the attic opening so we also move a lot of air through the roof vents. We're on our 16th day 100-degrees F or over.... How much humidity are you holding in your house? Do you run a dehumidifier to take some of the stress off your air conditioner? Especially if you have an older, less efficient air conditioner. Is your air conditioner unit sitting in the sun? Do you clean your outside condenser regularly. When we have cottonwood trees shedding their seeds, we have to clean our condenser every few days. Last year we attached a Cool-n-Save Air Conditioner mister onto our unit. We used 1186 KWH May/June 2010 with the mister, and 1309 KWH May/June 2011, so the mister may have saved around 10%. Our problem with the mister was too much wind blowing the mist. But it might be something that you would benefit from, and/or shading your unit. If you've never read the book, "Movable Insulation" by William K. Langdon (check your local library for a copy) it has some great ideas in it. Although we have better "stuff" to use for insulating than when the book was published in 1980, the ideas are still great. -Grainlady |

Thank you all for your responses! I really appreciate all the time you've each taken in responding. I can't chat long now...I'll update more later. There are so many factors to address, I do believe it is best for us to have an energy audit done. I'm sure it will be disappointing news but I'd like a list of things we can change to make our situation better. |

INDIANAPOLIS — Fab Melo learned a lot about life at Syracuse.
On the court, he got stronger, improved his work ethic and emerged as one of the nation's premier defenders. Off the court, he changed his lifestyle, tried to become more professional and figured out how to deal with adversity — some of it by his own making.
The Big East Defensive Player of the Year is traveling around the country, working out in front of NBA scouts and trying to answer one question: Why should a team spend a high draft pick on a player who couldn't finish last season because of academic problems?
"It was academic," Melo said Tuesday after working out for the Pacers in Indianapolis. "They ask, I explain (what) happened — that I came from another country and until four years ago didn't even speak English."
Poor academics caused the Brazilian to be suspended twice during his sophomore year, first for three games and in March for the NCAA tournament.
Without the 7-foot, 255-pound center, the Orange lost to Ohio State in the regional finals. Syracuse had been ranked No. 1 for six weeks during the regular season.
Now Melo is off to what most presume to be a big NBA payday. Projections have Melo going anywhere from the middle of the first round to late in the first round.

Poets on Poets
As the curator of this page, I am solely responsible for the choice of the poets here introduced, authors I evaluate as representative of our times, within my reduced possibilities of research, set by time_ chance_ and fate. I am thankful to the Pedagogical Institute, especially to Maria Cristina Petruzzino, for having offered me this possibility, and to Vanni, the webmaster, for his fast but intuitive lessons. I acknowledge all those who have chosen to send their poetic compositions, and feel as if it was my personal privilege to have met them, even if often only in cyber-land, with its Pindaric flights, inputs, expectations, deceptions; but most of all I agree with Pierre Lévy in his positive outlook on this infinite space which has brought to a higher level of common intellectuality thanks to its limitless access. Jorge Luis Borges' dream, the librarian in/of time, is almost real.

Those are some healthy looking plants! What in the world are you going to do with all the pods off 9 reaper plants? Great job so far, you should have ripe pods before too long. Tim |
I make sauce(s). I will pick every rip pod and vacuum pack them to freeze. I had 12 ghost plants last year and used up all the pods harvested. Last year though I dehydrated all of them, this year I want to freeze them to keep a better texture to the sauces. |
Yes beautiful plants. And thanks for the idea to vacuum seal the pods. I have a sealer that doesn't get used since I no longer hunt. Using it for peppers sounds perfect. (thumbsup) |

Amazing watch
I have been looking at this watch for months before I decided to buy it. It is impossible to find in my city so I ordered from Shopbop and I am so satisfied with my purchase.
It is a big watch, so be careful when you buy it. I have large wrists so it looks nice on me, but I'm not sure if it would fit well on a smaller frame.
The colour is amazingly pretty! I wouldn't wear it all the time, but it looks swell with many bracelets.

I would have wished that the "elastic band" was less cheap looking. It really looks like they bought Sally Hansen hair bands, and put some bling bling to it.
It still looks pretty but it's also tiny.

When Christine Galinski joined the adult kickball team Kicking Under the Influence she was just looking to have some fun and play kickball with other young adults her age. What she did not expect was a broken clavicle.
Galinski, 29, of Palm Beach County, Fla., is suing the World Adult Kickball Association (WAKA) for more than $15,000 for damages. She suffered the injury when she collided with Seth Brenner, 31, a member of the opposing team Drink 'Til They're Pretty during a game in April 2011.
WAKA orchestrates hundreds of teams across the United States.
As the complaint she and her lawyer, William Dean, of Ford & Dean, P.A., filed states, Galinski is suing WAKA for not taking "reasonable measures to protect the participants from foreseeable harm during the games."
WAKA's official rules state that there must be an official supervisor at each game. Though there was an official on duty during the April game, Galinski is asserting that the supervisor should have done more to protect her against Brenner and his apparent inebriation.
"The consumption of alcohol was a central theme to this league," said Dean. He added that Galinski knew of the players' penchant for spirits as soon as she joined.
On WAKA's website, each team is affiliated with a bar and members say that WAKA did not seem to mind the coolers of beer that were sometimes brought to games.
"[WAKA] Certainly doesn't fight drinking," said Cory Carano, a member of Drink Til They're Pretty. "I actually wish it were more of an aspect."
WAKA officially prohibits members from drinking on the field and Carano said that in recent years WAKA has taken steps to minimize drunkenness on the field.
But Carano insists that Galinski's argument that Brenner was drunk when she got injured is wrong.
"I'm a lawyer so I did questioning of my own. He said that he came to the game straight from work and had not drank anything," Carano said.
He said that the accident, as opposed to an intoxicated assault, was an innocent mistake.
"He was running to second base, not looking at anything but the ball, and so was she. So they collided," Carano said.

But you cannot recruit Claude because he has no in-game model, only a cutscene model. His in-game model is replaced by Woozie.

I would believe you if you had said you had just recruited Cesar, but why make a topic about it.

Is it possible to have charachters such as Caesar, recruited after the mission ends? |
I've managed to recruit Sweet after failing a mission (Sweet's Girl) so I would imagine it is possible to do the same for some other characters under the right circumstances. ogglock posted a list here of the missions where you can do this for Sweet, Cesar, and some other characters - I can't verify them all personally, though.

start vigilante and shoot the car of the one(s) you're chasing so that it catches fire
then they will get out. Seing that the game spawns a random model,
yt might be a ped or maybe a special character (like Cesar).
Then just end vigilante and recruit them. It takes a while to find a special model.
Sorry if this is confusing.
