Tools and Guidelines
In many countries of Eastern Europe, the Caucasus and Central Asia (EECCA), the use of up-to-date information technologies by environmental monitoring authorities needs to be expanded. These technologies may substantially improve environmental data handling, exchange and supply to public authorities and the public.
The Working Group on Environmental Monitoring and Assessment has established a task force, with the Russian Federation as lead country, to review the collection of meta information on available sources of environmental information and activities in EECCA countries and to develop practical tools and instruments, using modern information technologies, to improve the use and exchange of information in these countries, and to harmonize their approaches with those applied within EEA networks.

With the support of EU/Tacis funds further activities will include:
- Creation of national reference institutions on electronic tools in EECCA countries
- Provision of national reference institutions with computer equipment and access to Internet
- Creating a harmonized meta-database with data sources and data sets, institutes, reports and other information products
- Training of national experts of EECCA countries on methodologies, standards and formats for environmental information exchange developed by EEA
- Development or expansion of national metadata bases on sources of data and data sets, institutes, reports and other information products in EECCA countries
- Development of national web sites on the basis of EEA guidelines and uploading the national meta information

Slow-Roasted Lamb Ribs
I ended up with lamb ribs because I buy a whole lamb every year, and that means I get all the interesting parts that don't make it onto supermarket shelves.
You can find leg of lamb and lamb chops most of the time. You might find lamb shoulder or lamb steaks. But the odd parts go somewhere else. Maybe into stew or gyros meat. But when you buy a whole lamb, you get ribs and neckbones and some odd looking chops.
I probably should have saved the ribs for summer and cooked them on the grill, but when I opened the freezer and reached in, the ribs were right there and they seemed appealing. So I pulled 'em out and thawed 'em out and contemplated what to do with them.
I considered braising and I considered cooking them in my tagine. But, no, I decided oven-roasting was the way to go. They were nice and fatty so I knew they wouldn't dry out.
But what about seasonings? I've lost my taste for lamb and mint for some reason. I love lamb chops with lemon and oregano, and I like leg of lamb with coffee and soy sauce. I've made racks of lamb with mustard and bread crumbs, and I've studded roasts with garlic. And of course, rosemary is great with lamb.
And then there are fruity things that work well in tagine dishes. And tomatoes and spices...
So many choices, and all of them sounded so good.
In the end, I decided to treat them simply and cook them low and slow. Not much of a recipe, but I rubbed them with a little garlic olive oil, sprinkled them with salt and pepper, and put them in the oven at 250 degrees for about 3 hours.
They were tender, but not falling off the bone- still a bit of a chew. They could have cooked longer, but they were great the way they were.

They look amazing, Donna!

Very Easy Stuff:
Buy Whole Lamb (Packaged Properly, gor gaw's sake!!).
Store in Freezer.
Select, thaw and cook as with any other meat, knowing that the cuts are much smaller. Some may take less time if small, yet others benefit from long braises.
In the case of 'typical' back ribs, cook 'em like pork ribs (gently) and savor the polite differences in flavor, and NOT masked by a strong rub or sauce. Polite seasoning is enough for lamb. I know that you agree. For any readers who disagree: Please find those frozen lamb ribs and FedEx them to ME. I'll pay some of the freight.
Typical "Pork Cut" lamb ribs are rare, valuable and a delight, several points beyond pork ribs, perfectly done. Lamb is lamb and it does not need much beyond basic S&P, maybe not even the salt. Be gentle and go go go.
I too buy a whole lamb. Unless they have changed the anatomy, mine also come with only two rib slabs. This is sad. So where do they go? Pet-food: Not. Ground lamb: Not. The lamb growers and processors already understand the dirty little secret: They Keep the Ribs for themselves! Very smart folks.

I previously unlocked the bounty items for the mechromancer and the gunzerker. I got the shift codes notifications and they were working fine in game. Upon unlocking all the items. I went back to borderlands 2 and those two items I mentioned earlier aren't showing anymore while all the other unlockables are working fine and I received every shift codes messages. I tried downloading the backgrounds again and restarting the game after logging off and back on. I went to the shift website and it says my items have been unlocked. Nothing seems to work. Could you please look into this ?
thank you.

and Michael Kineavy.
Last Thursday evening, May 25, the South Boston Collaborative Center held its 2006 Spring Fundraiser and Joe Walsh Award Night at the Ironworkers Hall. The Joe Walsh Award commemorates the extraordinary devotion Walsh demonstrated to individuals from all over Boston, who had become entrapped in the cycle of alcohol or drug abuse. This year's nominee was Jack Leary, Assistant Chief Probation Officer at the Courthouse and himself a tireless worker on behalf of addicted people.
The Collaborative Center was formed in 1997, in response to the tragic wave of teenaged overdoses and suicides. Its mission is easy to state but difficult to carry out: to provide substance abuse counseling, education, outreach, and referral services to the families of South Boston. Even though the Center runs on the proverbial "shoestring", it needs funding to continue its programs and help families at risk.
Andy Ward, the Collaborative's Program Director, welcomed the guests, and mentioned that this is the Collaborative's ninth year of operation. He asked that the Board stand and be recognized.
Michael Kineavy served as the Master of Ceremonies. He first introduced Moss Lynch, who had written an original poem for the event. Lynch's poem is entitled "A Healing Hand". One of its lines states, "We must stick by those who need our help the most."
Scott Lombard, who received the Joe Walsh Award in 2004, paid tribute to this year's recipient, Jack Leary. Lombard said, "No one else deserves this award more." He also mentioned the questions that Leary always asked his clients with drug issues, "Are you tired? Have you had enough?" And eventually, a large number of Leary's clients responded and began the journey into recovery.
The Joe Walsh Award was then presented to Jack Leary. Participating in the ceremony were Michael Kineavy, Joe "Dodo" Nee, and Peter Walsh, representing the Walsh family. Kineavy paid tribute to the forward-thinking team of Judge Ziemian, BPD Captain Russell, and Leary. "Someone out there has their child back tonight, because of the love Jack Leary gives to this community."
In his own well-spoken remarks, Leary praised the volunteers and professionals of South Boston, starting with the work Joe Walsh did. He went on to point out that South Boston, alone among all the nation's towns and cities, has an incredible concentration of recovery programs, AA activities, halfway houses, and so on. He concluded by saying, "No other place says, 'We have a problem!' and does so much to resolve it. This makes South Boston a special place to be."
The evening closed with a silent auction. The warmth and fellowship were so evident that it was difficult to say goodbye for many of the guests. The evening was also a great financial success. In addition to the money raised at the event, Collaborative Center sponsors donated upwards of $30,000.
Leading the way were Jon Cronin, the local developer, Burke Distributors, William Coyne, the Mass. Convention Center Authority, Mt. Washington Bank, and MCM Properties.

"Not ready for primetime"
Cheap, easy to use
Basic features lacking
I upgraded to 20GB storage for $10/year which is very cheap. However there are several limitations with skydrive. Some are very annoying.
1. It only syncs folders under the skydrive root folder on the PC. I have folders in several places on my PC and would like to leave them there since other applications expect them in those places. Skydrive will not back these up to the cloud until I move or copy the folders under the root skydrive folder. What is this 1990?
2. You cannot do a one way sync from PC to Skydrive only. I have several GB worth of pictures and videos I rarely see and just want them archived on the cloud but skydrive will only do two way sync forcing me to keep them on my PC which defeats the whole purpose.
3. Any device you add to your skydrive account will have all folders downloaded. In essence skydrive mirrors it's contents on each device you specified. I don't want everything mirrored everywhere for Pete's sake.
4. All the above can be mitigated if you do not use the client but only use the web version. But then you have to remember what to upload from which folder. Pretty limiting.
The irritants seem so basic. For a company that prides itself on being the largest software company in the world, Microsoft appears to have rushed to put out a product that looks like a high school project. Hopefully they improve it. Soon.

Val Whittington - 27/09/2012
Of all the nightclubs coming through at the moment this a definite favourite of mine and my classes.Lovely steps just a little different to the norm.Takes a few times through to get the timing but sooo worth the effort!
Sue Bain - 25/09/2012
As is usual from Ria, this is another lovely dance with some different step combinations to make it interesting. The music is great and all round it makes a dance worth learning. My class enjoyed the first teach last night - the timing needed some attention but it was worth the effort!
David Spencer - 20/09/2012
This is a lovely dance and as usual with Ria the steps are spot on. Personally for me, I'm not sure the music is as strong as for say Bittersweet Memory. Not everyone in my class like nightclub two-steps but most of the social dancers are enjoying it.
Pamela Stevenson - 13/09/2012
Have been teaching this dance for four weeks now. Class find it a challenge but they are enjoying it. Once they mastered the timing they found they could relax and let it flow.
Sharon Brizon - 11/09/2012

Agree with all the comments already made. Great track, beautiful dance. Easy to learn - sure to be a winner
Ross Brown - 26/08/2012

Silverbacks Announce 2014 Preseason Schedule
As Atlanta Silverbacks FC prepares for its 2014 North American Soccer League (NASL) season, the club will play a lineup of six preseason games against collegiate opponents from the southeast region as well as USL PRO side Charlotte Eagles.
Silverbacks players will arrive in Atlanta in late February before officially kicking off preseason training on Saturday, March 1. The team will have nearly two weeks to train before its first preseason test on March 14, which comes against Southern Polytechnic State University, a local institution based in Marietta, at RYSA Soccerplex in Conyers.
The highlight of the Silverbacks' preseason schedule comes the following day when the club hosts the Eagles, who made it all the way to the 2013 league final before falling to Orlando City SC, 7-4. The Silverbacks suffered the same fate as the Eagles last season, making it all the way to their league final before dropping a 1-0 contest to the New York Cosmos in Atlanta.
Outside of traveling to nearby Conyers and Morrow, the Silverbacks only have one true road game on the docket this preseason. The club will take a trip to Birmingham, Ala. to play against the University of Alabama-Birmingham Blazers on their home field. You can find the 2014 preseason schedule in its entirety below:
Friday, March 14 - 7:30 p.m.
Southern Polytechnic State University
RYSA Soccerplex (Conyers, Ga.)
Saturday, March 15 - 4 p.m.
Charlotte Eagles (USL Pro)
Atlanta Silverbacks Park (Atlanta, Ga.)
Friday, March 21 - 7:30 p.m.
University of Alabama-Birmingham
West Campus Field (Birmingham, Ala.)
Sunday, March 23 - 3 p.m.
Auburn University-Montgomery
Laker Field (Morrow, Ga.)
Saturday, March 29 – 4 p.m.
Young Harris College
Atlanta Silverbacks Park (Atlanta, Ga.)
Sunday, April 6 - 3 p.m.
Carson-Newman College
Atlanta Silverbacks Park (Atlanta, Ga.)
Admission to the home game against the Eagles on March 15 will be free to Silverbacks season ticket holders, $10 for adults, and $5 for kids. The other two preseason games at Atlanta Silverbacks Park on March 29 and April 6 will be free to the public. There will be no charge for parking at any of the club's preseason home games.
The Silverbacks kick off their 2014 NASL season on the road against the New York Cosmos on April 13 – a game that will be a rematch of last year's championship game. The club's first home game will come on April 19 at 7:30 p.m. against the San Antonio Scorpions. To purchase tickets or find out more about Silverbacks season ticket packages, call the ticket office at 404-969-4900.

Jeff Burton wins for the first time at Darlington in the TranSouth Financial 400. The race ended in dramitic style with a wreck out of turn four. Burton who was leading, went to avoid spinning cars in front of him, and slammed hard into the outside retaining wall, but beat the rest of the field to the cuation flag. Moments later, rain began to fall. For the next two laps later, Burton manhandled his beaten machine (with most of the right side crunched inward) around the track, barely able to turn it left in the corners. As the rain continued, the race was red-flagged, and that's the way it ended.

Auckland Airport is the major connection between the world and "the land of the long white cloud".
It is where New Zealand touches the world - welcoming visitors and farewelling friends.
Auckland International Airport Limited (Auckland Airport) was formed in 1988, when the New Zealand Government corporatised the management of Auckland International Airport. In 1998, the Government sold down its shareholding, and Auckland Airport became the fifth airport company in the world to be publicly listed.
Auckland Airport has been voted as one of the 10 best airports in the world twice in the past 3 years, and is a major driver of the economy. Auckland Airport generates billions of dollars for the economy, creating thousands of jobs, and making a vital contribution to New Zealand trade and tourism by strengthening connections with the world.
Over 70 per cent of visitors enter or leave New Zealand via Auckland Airport, which handles over 14 million passengers a year. More than 20 international airlines serve Auckland Airport, Australasia's second busiest international airport, after Sydney.
As New Zealand's major transport hub, Auckland Airport is investing in an airport and traveller experience that all New Zealanders can be proud of.
Auckland Airport is continually developing the capacity and services to ensure it will sustainably cope with an anticipated 24 million passengers a year by 2025, reflecting New Zealand's growing popularity as one of the world's leading tourism destinations.

You're an Anti-Semite!
Stop being racist!
Are you threatening to murder Semites? That is illegal.

Nesaie wrote:Saying or referring to a "Jew" reminds me of "New Speak" from the book 1984. There are three different concepts that one word refers to. There is the religion, the race and the political movement called Zionism. To really talk about this subject we have to separate those out and agree on the definitions.
A religious Jew is somebody who practices the Torah. There are very few of them in the US, mostly on the East Coast.
Zionism today is not what it originally was with the Balfour declaration. Today it has become synonymous with the support of Israel, regardless of the crimes committed by Israel. If you don't support Israel, which I don't, then you're "anti-Semitic" AKA anti-Jew.
Then there is this mythology about a race called Jew. Yes, there are some who call themselves Jew today who can trace their ancestry back to the Semitic region, but...the majority of those who call themselves Jew come from the Khazars, not from Semites. Their ancestors converted to the religious Judaism, some even married traveling Semites from that region, but that is the minority.
Can we agree on these three separate ideas when it comes to the word "jew"?
t is impossible to separate Culture from Religion in Jewish circles.

A Dog is for Life, Not for Christmas, at Aloft Downtown Asheville
A dog is not just for Christmas � it�s for overnight stays in the New Year, too. Or, rather, it is if you�re staying at Aloft Asheville. Its partnership with a local animal rehoming charity means that you can check in petless, and check out with a new furry best friend.
Aloft is working with Charlie�s Angels Animal Rescue to rehome pets � which means a beauty parade of doggies around the public areas. Or, rather, one doggy at a time � wearing an �adopt me� vest, and giving pleading eyes to guests at check-in.

The Ritz-Carlton Charlotte is REALLY in a Holiday Mood This Year
The Merrion Dublin's two Christmas trees pales in comparison to the holiday spectacular that the Ritz-Carlton Charlotte has put on, which includes three Christmas trees, a gingerbread cottage, and an edible sleigh pulled by edible reindeer. Best take out your handkerchief to wipe up the drool.
Let's start with the 17-foot-tall tree made of 789 recycled green bottles and bathed in equally green lights. Obviously, this one is strictly for admiring, not for eating. (It's also a nod to the hotel's LEED Certification.)

21c Museum Hotels Will Shake Up The Durham Hotel Scene Next Year
21c Museum Hotels will have some good company when their Nashville property opens as several hot brands like Ace, Virgin and Thompson are expected to populate the Music City. But when it comes to the hotel scene of Durham, North Carolina, we think the forthcoming 21c Museum Hotel in downtown will have the artsy boutique hotel game on lock.
Designed by Deborah Berke Partners, the 125-room hotel will have all the hallmarks of a 21c Museum hotel. That means it's part boutique hotel and part contemporary art museum, with a chef-driven restaurant thrown in too.
The art museum will be open and free to all visitors, not just hotel guests and will feature "curated exhibitions, interactive site specific installations and a full roster of cultural programming." Elsewhere at the hotel will be a lounge, a fitness center and a spa. As for the signature 21c Museum penguin, the Durham penguin will be rocking a bright fuchsia color.

AC Hotels to Also Arrive in Asheville, North Carolina
AC Hotels by Marriott are working towards opening their first hotel in New Orleans in October, followed by South Beach, and Kansas City with JFK Airport and Chicago on the (tentative) horizon as well. And now, AC will open in Asheville, North Carolina too.
According to the Citizen-Times newspaper, design review approval was given to the owners of the BB&T building's parking garage. The garage will be razed and in its place a nine-story hotel--with 132 guest rooms, a restaurant and a bar--will be constructed.
Yay, exciting and that jazz. But what's also interesting, is that the BB&T building itself will be turned into an upscale, boutique hotel topped with six floors of condos. Naturally, we assume this brand has to be a Marriott-branded hotel as well. And if we had to place our bets, we'd put our money on a Renaissance Hotel which is definitely Marriott's boutique brand, after Edition of course. But the condo element has us a bit thrown off. So...what will it be? We're gonna go with Renaissance but only time, and maybe a loose-lipped developer or designer, will tell. Hint, hint.

Kimpton to Turn Former R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Building into a Boutique Hotel
Kimpton can't get enough of Southern hospitality. Fresh off opening The Brice Hotel in Savannah, the friendly boutique hotel chain is now taking over a historic office building in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.
The R.J. Reynolds Building, the longtime headquarters for the R.J. Reynolds Tobacco Company, was built in 1929 by Shreve & Lamb, the same architects who designed the Empire State Building. The lobby is decorated with ornate murals, gold leaf millwork in the ceilings, and nickel and brass elevators throughout. You can see some photos of the building's Art Deco interior design here.
The building has been vacant since 2009 but now PMC Property Group will turn the office space into 175 hotel rooms, 36 suites, a hotel fitness center, and a 120-seat restaurant and bar, along with plenty of meeting and event space. Of course, the developers and Kimpton will do what they can to preserve the building's original design but we're gonna guess they won't be bringing back the museum of tobacco that once graced the tobacco building's ground floor. Heck, Kimpton probably won't even allow smoking in the guest rooms. Ain't that funny?

Beer Canoe? Don't Mind if We Do at The Sanderling Resort
The Sanderling Resort in the Outer Banks of North Carolina has some rather clever culinary presentations that they do for wedding receptions and other events at their beachfront property (check out the I Love Bacon station here.) But with everyone else but us (or it seems like) kicking back on Spring Break this week, we're really loving this Beer Canoe.
Yup, a canoe filled with bottles of beer. So simple and yet so right. The hotel will also do a seafood buffet out of a canoe too. Hello there, lobsters!

Starwood to Debut First Upscale "Dual-Hotel" in Charlotte
Not long ago, we wrote about the growing trend of the dual-branded hotel property. When a combined Hampton Inn & Suites and Homewood Suites opened in Denver last May, it reflected the tendency of these new-ish hotel concepts to pair an extended stay property with a limited service hotel. Starwood�s announcement last week,however, was the first we have heard of upscale brands getting in on the act.
The hotel company is planning to open a combined Sheraton and Le Meridien in Charlotte�s uptown business district, with each hotel occupying one tower each of a massive hotel complex that is currently operating as the Blake Hotel (run by Amsterdam Hospitality.) The two hotels will each have their own separate entrances and lobbies, but will share the fitness center, spa, pools, and meeting space. The two towers will have a total of six restaurants, and Le Meridien will feature a rooftop bar offering views of the Charlotte skyline.

The Ritz-Carlton Charlotte Gives Guests A Full 24-Hour Stay
Not long ago we reported on the Capella Georgetown which has no check-in or check-out hours. The concept has even made its way all the way to Australia and its Art Series hotels where Serena Williams tweeted about the hotel's policy of not kicking you out if there isn't a guest scheduled for your room. We thought this kind of perk would be limited to small, quirky hotels, but imagine our surprise when we received a news bit letting us know that The Ritz-Carlton Charlotte (apparently a favorite of Lenny Kravitz!) is now offering a guaranteed 24-hour stay for guests who check in on Saturdays.
That's right, with the new "Stay and Play 24" package, the hotel will accept check-ins at any hour on Saturday and allow departure a full 24 hours later � even if that means a Sunday evening check-out. For guests who check-in early on Saturday, check-out will be after 24 hours have passed or at noon on Sunday � whichever is later and offers more convenience for the guest. Let's hear it for a lovely leisurely weekend!
And, to top it off, the "Stay and Play 24" includes a $100 food and beverage credit that can be redeemed in the hotel's Bar Cocoa, lobby lounge, room service, or the Urban Sip restaurant. We're told that Bar Cocoa has a banging Sunday Brunch, so keep that in mind.
The "Stay and Play 24" package costs $379 a night and regular Saturday rates are $299 a night, so we're thinking with the $100 F&B credit and extra hours, this is a pretty decent deal.

Bedbugs and Crack Dealers: What DNC Reporters Are Complaining About In Charlotte
Forget, for a minute, the glowing reviews of Michelle Obama's and Bill Clinton's speeches at the DNC. It turns out another thing reporters' minds were the rotten hotels they were assigned for the event, which took place this past week in Charlotte, NC. But cramped rooms and bad service were the least of it�we're talking drug dealers, prostitutes, and bed bugs.
The bed bugs in particular were an issue, as the Washington Times reported that several of the DNC media-hosting hotels have dealt with bedbug infestation complaints in the past year.
The scene was enough to make radio talk show host David Webb comment:
"It comes down to organizing a good event, and frankly, that says something about how they do things here."

Aloft Asheville And Aloft SFO Both Get Ready For Takeoff
Ready or not, Aloft is slowly infiltrating every corner of the world�India, China, and the US are all in line for multiple openings this year. And it was announced last week that South Korea is even set to get its first Aloft by 2014.
But in the more immediate future, we're looking at two US openings this month: Aloft Asheville on Aug 23 and Aloft SFO on Aug 30. One will be a place to retreat from (or invite back to your hotel room) all the ukulele-strumming Blue Ridge Mountain hippies. The other will be a place to lament your delayed flight. Both will spoil you with free WiFi.

Can You Guess Lenny Kravitz's Hotel Hangout in Charlotte?
We know, we know. What a random acting role for musician/hotel designer Lenny Kravitz! Just in case you haven't been up and up on the "Hunger Games" madness, Lenny stars as Capitol stylist, Cinna, in the movie which premieres this weekend.
Yet what befuddles us hotel geeks more than this role for Lenny is rather where he and the cast were staying during filming.
According to the NY Post, Lenny's "ritzy" hotel digs became the "unofficial hangout" for his co-stars.
�My hotel room became the after-hours joint,� Kravitz tells The Post. �Any given night there you�d see me, Stanley [Tucci], Gary [Ross], Woody [Harrelson], Elizabeth [Banks], Josh [Hutcherson], Jennifer [Lawrence.] It was fun.�
You know what this means--it's time to Guess the Hotel!!

Now You Can Charge Your Electric Car At The Ritz-Carlton Charlotte
Move over recycling bins and bulk shampoo dispensers: the hottest new green accessory, at least at The Ritz-Carlton, Charlotte, is an electric vehicle charging station, available to guests free of charge. The LEED-certified hotel unveiled the new gizmo last week in collaboration with local electric car company Li-Ion Motors, which brought out an Inizio roadster to show off.
The property is the first Ritz-Carlton to install a guests-only electric car charging station. The two power ports will fuel up cars that are completely tapped out in 10-12 hours and also top off in under an hour rides that still have some juice. There are plans to add additional, similar charging stations around Charlotte.

Great Accomplishments II: The 2010 myMarvin Architect Challenge
Architects: Catharine Fergus Garber, Daniel Garber, Fergus Garber Group, Palo Alto, CA
Careful blending of the homeowners' preferences, a love of of Arts and Crafts homes and a strong desire for a quiet and refined 'California Craftsmen' resulted in a family home with wide porches, horizontal lines and great attention to detail.
Inside, the generous use of glass in Marvin windows and doors allows natural light to flood the home, providing brightness and exuberance.
Architect: Kent Chilcott, Kent Chilcott Studio, Santa Rosa, California
This modest, 1600 square foot residence caught the judges' attention. They labeled the project Best in Show. Just as the home floats above its California hillside site, the bowed roof form floats above the open and spacious interiors.
Marvin clad patio doors, casements, awnings and custom curved-head fixed windows allow for floor to ceiling fenestration, with glass that is seamlessly set in to the exposed wood ceiling.
Architect: Jacob Albert, Albert, Righter & Tittmann, Boston, MA
Local Shingle Style traditions informed this New York seaside vacation retreat. Lighthearted and picturesque, elements like the round tower, gently flared gambrel roof, and strong, continuous eave line combine to provide rhythm, interest and timeless beauty.
Large Marvin windows and French doors on the seaside elevation make the most of the ocean view. Dramatic repetition of pointed dormers pairs Marvin double hung windows on an angle to better capture the sweeping views to the water.
Architect: Alexander Seidel FAIA, San Francisco, CA
Originally built as a single family house, the structure had devolved into five poorly subdivided apartments by the 1960's. City code didn't allow for a return to single family usage, so the redesign cleverly configured three units that could be joined into one large home or inhabited individually.
Antiquated counterweighted single glazed windows were replaced with weathertight, double glazed and coated Marvin clad Ultimate Double Hung, Insert and Fixed windows and French doors, for improved occupant comfort and slashed energy usage.
Architect: Frank Riepe, Building Arts, Sudbury, MA
The owner of this unique New Hampshire home wanted to acknowledge the classical traditions favored by her architect grandfather, but with a distinctly contemporary feel. Reipe looked to early New England architecture, Shaker meeting houses and rural Italian churches for inspiration.
Thick walls and the large 4' x 8' Marvin Ultimate Double-Hungs were part of a calculated overscaling in this modest house, in order to evoke the early American sensibilities of simplicity, spareness and directness.
Architect: Jay Cooperson, Cooperson Associates, Wilmington, DE
The Smyrna Opera House was constructed in 1867, expanded in 1878, and partially destroyed by fire in 1948. It stood vacant for many years. Re-creation of the theater and balcony plus adaptive reuse enhancements were designed to pay homage to the building's origins as well as accommodate contemporary needs.
Marvin fabricated Clad Custom Ultimate Double Hung Round Tops to replicate the original windows. The re-creation of the third floor and its windows was based on a few old photographs.
Architects: Christine Albertsson, Todd Hansen, Albertsson Hansen Architecture, Ltd., Minneapolis, MN
Homeowners with a growing family needed to expand their 1,100 s.f. house.Architects added to the existing house in ways that increased privacy but still allowed access to the park and creek below.The addition design brings together the elements of a small, New England saltbox with the red board and batten siding of a Swedish Stuga.
The large scale and fine detailing of Marvin double-hung windows echo the tradition of the large, low-set double-hung windows that originally existed in the house. Windows, used around corners on all three levels, provide wonderful views of the creek valley.
Architect: Susan Richards Johnson, Susan Richards Johnson & Associates, Inc., Kansas City, MO
New Marvin windows and entry door bring balance and a natural rhythm to the building's façade. This historic property had only a few original wood windows intact, the entry door was completely missing, and moisture infiltration had caused considerable damage.
A system of built-up Marvin aluminum stock mouldings at the main entry re-created the proportion and complexity of the door opening which originally was built with limestone and decorative glazed terra cotta.
Architect: Jeff Stetter, Gossens Bachman Architects, Montpelier, VT
Architect: John Tittmann, Albert, Righter & Tittmann, Boston, MA
Marvin clad Magnum Tilt/Turns, Ultimate Double Hungs, and Ultimate Inswing French Doors with simulated divided lites provided the scale and proportion the design demanded, and contributed to Energy Star qualification and 15% less energy consumption than that prescribed by code.
Enlarge Close Marvin Windows and Doors is proud to showcase the winners of Great Accomplishments: the 2010 myMarvin Architect Challenge. These entries were singled out for excellence by our panel of FAIA jurors.

About Temerity
Our History
Temerity was founded in June 2009 by people that love to raid and had been successful in top 100 guilds, but grew tired of hardcore guilds that required 5-7 nights per week raiding. Our founders' mission was to apply our hardcore raiding mindset and experience and create a guild where we could accomplish more in 3 short raids per week than most guilds can in 5.
Our model proved itself when shortly after forming we were the 145th US guild to earn Alone in the Darkness (25 player), and our success continued with top 75-100 hard mode kills of bosses throughout the remainder of WotLK.
In Tier 11 content, Temerity has continued its momentum with several top 50-75 kills including US 40th Heroic Al'akir, US 57th Heroic Cho'gall and US 49th Heroic Sinestra.
In Tier 12, we built on our previous successes by securing numerous top 50 kills, including US 25th Heroic Rhyolith, US 34th Heroic Alysrazor, US 36th Heroic Ragnaros, US 39th Beth'tilac, and US 49th Heroic Baleroc. Our relatively highly ranked Ragnaros kill paved the way for an overall ranking of of US 36th.
Finally, in Tier 13, despite the onerous class-stacking requirements of Heroic Spine of Deathwing, Temerity accomplished the US 36th kill of Heroic Spine of Deathwing and quickly moved on to get the US 31st kill of Heroic Madness of Deathwing. Along the way, we also were fortunate enough to attain US 24th Heroic Ultraxion and US 28th Heroic Warmaster. Temerity's progress in Tier 13 was astounding, and our overall improvement over the length of Cataclysm was remarkable.
We are very proud of what we've accomplished as a 3-night guild, but our focus is on conquering the challenges ahead.With the Cataclysm having ended, we're very excited to be heading into Mists of Pandaria and look forward to more tiers of awesome raiding.
Our Philosophy
We believe that it is not necessary to raid 4, 5, or even 6 nights per week to kill cutting edge progression bosses. We feel that a little bit of time spent planning and thinking outside of raid can make up for A LOT of that time we don't have inside the raid.
We utilize live logging to help identify and address problems we encounter on a boss as quickly as possible. While this enables us to make prompt strategy adjustments in many cases, we try to avoid reinventing strategies during raid. Our strategy forums are extremely active as our raiders and team leads discuss possible changes for progression bosses; this out-of-raid discussion and analysis is the key to our success.
Our Culture
Most of our members have families and careers and so we emphasize making the most of the few hours each week we raid. We treat each other with respect and demand high performance, excellent gameplay, and positive attitudes. We don't tolerate some of the racist, sexist, homophobic, or other high-testosterone attitudes often present in endgame raiding guilds. Our standards for intra-guild conduct apply to inter-guild relations as well. We expect our members to avoid any server forum/trade chat drama.
Thanks in part to our raiding model and in part to our culture, Temerity has an extremely stable raiding core and very low turnover. We are proud that our raiders enjoy our environment and choose to continue to raid with us tier after tier. All of our officers were either founding members or joined within the first week of Temerity's existence, many of our earliest members are still with us, and the majority of our roster is "Veteran" rank or higher, meaning they have been with us for four months or more.
Our Raid Schedule
Hardcore raiding on a condensed schedule. That's us. Temerity raids on the following schedule:
- Wednesday, Thursday, and Sunday
- 8:00PM until 12:00AM PST
- Muster at 7:45PM PST
Rather than fill 5 raid nights with afks, endless bio breaks, slow buffing & pulling, and failed attempts due to amorphous strategies, we use 3 nights with little to no downtime and organized plans. We have proven that with our approach we can accomplish more than most guilds that raid 5-7 nights a week can. Perhaps best of all, there's time left in the week for jobs, relationships, and non-raid play!
Given our abbreviated schedule, we expect 100% attendance from all raiders. It is crucial for us to be able to plan raids ahead of time and not spend large amounts of time shuffling raids, adjusting composition, asking people to play off-spec, etc. Occasional absence due to real-life conflicts will not be penalized, but continued absence and tardiness can result in demotion or EP penalties.
Our loot system promotes punctuality. We reward a significant on-time bonus and end-of-raid bonus to reward being ready when we begin and staying until the end.
Our Loot System
Temerity uses the EPGP loot system. This system is designed to ensure that loot is handed out fairly, objectively, and prevent unwanted behavior such as hoarding. Raiders can download and install the addon and see their priority as well as all other guild members' priority.

The Area Commander Program is responsible for those areas which directly influence the quality of life for the residents and businesses in Rialto. In addition to enforcing the laws of our society, the Police Department believes it is equally important to maintain and develop positive relationships with all members of the community. The Area Commander Program is one of many innovative examples of the Rialto Police Department's "Commitment to Community." The Rialto Police Department subscribes to the concepts of "evidence-based policing." "Evidence-based policing" is the use of the best available research on the outcomes of police work to implement guidelines and evaluate agencies, units, and officers. It suggests that just doing research is not enough and that proactive efforts are required to push accumulated research evidence into practice through national and community guidelines. These guidelines can then focus in-house evaluations on what works best across agencies, units, victims, and officers. We also encourage you to use the technology related resources found on the Department's website to include; Coplogic (Online Reporting), OffenderWatch (Offender Tracking), CrimeMapping.com (Community Crime Stats), Nixle (Community Notification), and tip411 (Text Tips). To receive emergency alerts and up to the minute weather warnings, please go to the Nixle page and register now! - Lieutenant Kathy Thompson is the Area Commander for Areas #1 and #2 - Chris DeHesa is the Code Enforcement Officer for Area #1

Another week, another barrage of bad PR for UNC athletics.
There really hasn't been any bad news to come out of UNC athletics in the past few days, except for the recent announcement that P.J. Hairston's playing days in Chapel Hill were done. But that doesn't mean the bad press has stopped.
The latest salvo aimed at UNC came from this piece in Bloomberg Businessweek. And that piece was essentially responding to the response to a recent CNN piece in which UNC athletics played an unflattering starring role.
UNC defenders are exasperated at this point and are wondering why their school continues to be raked over the coals for offenses that, while serious, are surely not unique to Chapel Hill. UNC detractors are thrilled that a school that has often touted its special way of doing things in athletics is finally being exposed as hypocritical.
Both sides have a point. UNC is getting a harsher spotlight than many other schools out there. That Sports Illustrated expose about Oklahoma State just sort of disappeared, while new pundits keep emerging to take a shot at the Tar Heels. Of course, an athletics/academics scandal at UNC is more of a story because of the school's sterling reputation. The honors student who gets busted for a felony grabs the headlines; the 8th-grade dropout who commits the same crime doesn't.
At this point, the "does UNC deserve it" question is pretty much moot, anyway. It's happening, and the school will have to continue to deal with the fallout.
At this point it would seem that most of that fallout is descending upon the university at large. The issues there are about the school's overall academic reputation, numbers of applications, etc.
On the athletics side of the equation, recruiting is usually the way you measure the effect of bad publicity. If other variables - booster funding, attendance at games and such - are having problems, you'll eventually see it in the influx - or lack thereof - of talent.
By that measure, UNC athletics is holding up okay, for now. The Tar Heels' have the No. 3 recruiting class for 2014 in basketball and the No. 26 class for 2014 in football, per 247Sports.com's composite rankings.
Of course, the inclusion of the phrase "for now" was intentional. If the near future brings yet another round of bad PR for UNC athletics, the cumulative effect may well change.

OrthoLite anatomical footbed
Molded nylon arch shank
Merrell QForm Comfort midsole
Merrell air cushion in the heel abosrbs shock and adds stability

What is an Aegis Microbe Sheild?
While some antimicrobial treatments block odor, Aegis takes a more aggressive approach, with an onslaught of polymer spikes that rupture the cell walls of odor producing microbes that stops odor in its tracks. Unlike chemicals that can wear down or produce resistant super bacteria, Aegis never wears out, wont leech out despite repeated washings, and wont harm the environment.
What are OrthoLite Comfort Foam Insoles?
Ortholite provides out-of-the-box comfort for longer than any footbed, thanks to a special open cell polyurethane that retains 95% of its cushioning after the first year, far exceeding the 30% offered by traditional EVA footbeds. The open cell structure also lets air pass through, which allows odor- and blister-causing moisture to evaporate. And as a finishing touch, an environmentally friendly biocide is added to combat microbes. Ortholite Insoles are produced for us in single, dual, or triple density, and are also molded to QForm specifications.
Why Vibram?
We proudly equip nearly all our multi-sport hiking shoes with Vibram outsoles for two reasons. First, no company does a better job creating lub patterns that provide stability in all conditions, with no lugs placed under the arch, so your foot flexes more naturally for greater comfort. Second, theyve created two advanced rubber compounds Trek and TC5+ - that provide sure traction on both wet and dry surfaces in even the most extreme temperatures.

A hamstring injury, which is sometimes called a strain or a pull, is actually caused when someone tears one of their three hamstring muscles: the Semimembranosus, and the Semitendinosus, and the Biceps femoris.
Hamstring Symptoms
General symptoms of a hamstring injury are when a person gets a sudden and sharp pain in the back part of their leg while they are doing some sort of exercise or sports activity that involves hard and fast movements. This develops into pain when they try to stretch out the muscles or straighten their knee and the injury will normally swell up and cause bruising to develop. An injury that is more severe will also show a breach in the area of the muscles affected.
Hamstring Tendonitis Symptoms
Tendonitis is caused by an irritation in a person's tendons, most often the legs. If you want to lessen your chances of getting this sort of injury, then you should do stretches and warm up prior to your exercises sessions. Tendonitis causes pain in the area of the injury, as well as stiffness and soreness where it is torn and the area will also feel hot all through the leg that is hurt.
Hamstring Tear Symptoms
If someone is, for instance, jogging and suddenly they get hit on the leg then they may end up tearing one of their hamstring muscles. It also happens if you overstretch the muscle too fast because you didn't warm it up ahead of the exercise or jogging session. Plus, if you have previously hurt your hamstring, you are more likely to have it happen again.
If you have torn a hamstring, you will get a sudden and pulsating pain on the back of the leg. Then, your muscles will spasm, swell and end up bruising.
Hamstring Pull Symptoms
Hamstring pull symptoms are different depending on how bad you have hurt yourself, but the most common occurrences are feeling a sharp pain or pulling sensation along the back of the leg or thigh area. It will also feel tight or tender to the touch. A more severe injury will also have a dull aching feeling that remains even at rest and it can hurt going up stairs or a hill.
You will also have problems with your range of motion or in bending your knee. Plus, the area will swell up and become irritated and inflamed and warm to the touch. It may also bruise and turn colors of black and blue, and you might hear a snapping noise as it tears.
Hamstring Injury Treatment
When someone injures their hamstring there are several things that can be done for immediate treatment.
How To Treat A Hamstring Injury
Using ice on a hamstring injury is a common start to treatment as it helps to bring down any swelling and helps to numb the pain. You can use either one of those blue reusable packs that you get from the drugstore and freeze it, or put some ice in a ziplock plastic bag and use that. You can also put a compression bandage, sometimes called a ace bandage, on it to reduce the inflammation and swelling.
It is also important to rest the injury and not make it worse by continuing whatever activity caused it in the first place. Only by resting it can it start healing. After that, it is important to keep your leg elevated to reduce swelling and fluid retention for at least the first couple of days after you hurt it.
Finally, if necessary, you can use crutches to take the pressure off the injury when you need to walk. In some severe cases of injury, it helps to get physical therapy.
Pulled Hamstring Treatment
A pulled hamstring happens sometimes if someone forgets to do a warmup and is one of the most common hamstring injuries. It should be treated as the above directions suggest, plus there are also special hamstring injury exercises that can help strength it.
Hamstring Injury Exercises
Isometric Hamstring Injury Exercises
Contracting your hamstrings will both increase their strength and improve your hamstrings flexibility after an injury (or any time). While sitting in a firm chair, tighten your upper leg muscles. Hold for 30 seconds. Relax. Repeat.
Lay on your back onto a flat surface. Tighten your quadriceps (thigh muscles) as you press your knee onto the surface. This exercise helps to stretch your hamstrings, according to Virginia Mason Orthopedics.
Hamstring Strengthening Exercises
Strengthening exercises can help the hamstring to heal after an injury. One kind of stretching exercise involves the person sitting in a wheeled chair. Then, they are supposed to pull themselves around using the hurt leg to propel the chair. This causes the knee to bend as you move forwards and helps it get stronger.
Another stretching exercise is with an elastic exercise band, which looks somewhat like a long, fat rubber band. You tie this to a table leg and then put your hurt leg inside the band. Then, you stretch the leg back and hold for a few moments, and let it go. This is done several times.
Hamstring Stretch
Stretching exercises are beneficial to help prevent hamstring injuries from happening in the first place. But they are also good to use to help make the injured hamstring repair itself as part of a physical therapy session. One example of a stretch you can use is to stand up and put your hurt leg onto the floor. Then lean the upper part of your body in the direction of your toes, but keep the knees straight and just bend at the waist area. The back also has to remain straight. Do this for 20 seconds and then repeat a few times.
Another type of hamstring stretch that is good has the person standing and using a weight. While holding the weight, the person bends with their hips and lowers the weight in their hands slowly to the floor. Keep back straight and do several times.
