Write a ReviewNot exactly as pictured, but works for our purpose

Avid Do-It-Yourselfer
We'd ordered this piece from another vendor and a month later learned it was not available any longer. So, we were thrilled to find it again. I did verify that it was in stock before I ordered. We received it within 14 days, well packaged. It is *not* a two toned item as pictured. The entire piece is brushed nickel. While that was disappointing, it is very difficult to find an 18" double towel rod in brushed nickel that isn't extremely cheaply made, so we are happy over all to have it.

I usually brew 5 gallon batches and ferment in a glass carboy. I am looking at buying a stainless steel conical fermenter and have been pricing 7.5 gallon conicals... The 7.5 and 14 gallon fermenters are pretty much the same. While I mostly brew 5 gallon batches, I plan on moving up to 10 gallon batches eventually. Instead of buying a 7.5 gallon conical now, and a 14 gallon later...I was curious..... Is there any issue if I ferment 5 gallon batches in a 14 gallon conicals, so I only have to buy one? Thanks for the help
I think this is the wrong area for this question, but the CO2 should take care of the extra headspace during fermentation. Sounds like a fun step up.
Fermenting 5 gallons in a 14 gallon fermenter is not a problem. Once is starts fermenting, the CO2 produced by fermentation will blanket your fermenting wort. As long as you keep the lid closed and don't muck around with the fermenting beer, you will be fine. If for some reason you were to leave the lid off for an extended time after fermentation is complete or near complete, you would probably want to add CO2 from your keg setup (if you have one) to ensure you don't oxidize the beer. In my commercial brewing experience, we routinely put 20 bbl of wort in 40 bbl fermenters with no ill effects. Cheers, John Stout Tanks and Kettleswww.conical-fermenter.com
Hello Mago646, You will run into one problem fermenting a 5 gallon batch in a 14 gallon fermentor and that is dumping your trub and yeast after your primary fermentation is complete. You may not have enough pressure to push your trub and yeast of the lower cock without beer loss. I found that dumping from the lower cock more often will solve this problem if you don't have CO2. John pretty much has the best plan of action though and that is adding the excessive airspace with CO2 to prevent against oxidation and aid you in your dump.

Please help! I get really angry for the least little reason and constantly have intrusive memories. Well, that's what I call it.
What happens is I can be watching TV or reading and I will get a memory from a lifetime ago that doesn't even matter anymore, but I still get the feeling from the situation I was in whether it was embarrassing or upsetting or made me angry and I get angry with people for the least little thing. I snap and if the person persists, I can lash out in a very aggressive way. I punch walls and windows, break things, grab people by the throat and threaten their lives. Not that I would do anything like that, but I also say very hurtful things to the person.
I don't want to react this way. I try and hold it back, but then the shouting starts and then the arguing starts then so on and so on. After it all I feel like a jerk and that adds to the memories of guilt, embarrassment and self consciousness. What is going on with me? I have been like this since I was a child, at 12 or so. I'm a 29 year old man now and it's worse. I'm afraid of what I am capable of. When I have said this to doctors, they put me on these drugs that turned me into a zombie. I slept all the time so I stopped taking them a long time ago. They didn't help anyway. I just slept a lot.
When I would tell the doctor that the meds weren't doing anything but making me sleep, that they didn't change my mood, they increased the dose and gave me a new sleepy med, which also didn't do jack but make me sleepy. I think that the doc just wanted to make me so docile that I just wouldn't bother her anymore. I don't know.

VMware, EMC, Yahoo!, Facebook: Tech Premarket
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) - VMware (VMW - Get Report) was a big loser in premarket trading Tuesday, plunging more than 18% following the software maker's fourth-quarter results released late on Monday.
For the first quarter, VMware said it expects sales between $1.17 billion and $1.19 billion, below analysts' forecast of $1.25 billion. VMware also is looking for fiscal 2013 revenue of $5.23 billion to $5.35 billion, well below Wall Street's prediction of $5.42 billion.
Investors were less than impressed with the results, pushing VMware's shares down 18.67% to $79.96.
VMware's parent company EMC (EMC - Get Report) was also off in premarket trading after reporting its own fourth-quarter results. The storage giant edged past Wall Street's estimates, although its shares tumbled on weaker-than-expected guidance.
EMC shares slipped 5.56% to $23.8 before market open. Yahoo! (YHOO - Get Report), however, was a big gainer, rising 3.05% to $20.93 following the company's better-than-expected fourth-quarter results on Monday. The Sunnyvale, Calif.-based firm was also one of the most active premarket Nasdaq stocks on share volume of 767,745. Facebook (FB - Get Report), which reports its fourth-quarter results on Wednesday, dipped 0.49% to $32.31 on share volume of 739,092. Research In Motion (RIMM) which unveils its eagerly anticipated BlackBerry 10 technology on Wednesday, gained 1.05% to reach $16.35 on share volume of 182,254. Shares of Amazon (AMZN - Get Report), on deck to report its fourth-quarter results after market close, crept up 0.53% to $277.50 in premarket trading. --Written by James Rogers in New York.

Hey, all. It's been about a year since I was able to brew, but I swore to do a batch today. I'm an extract/grains brewer. I decided to just pick up random stuff at the supply store locally, in hopes that the muse would do the rest today. I have a bunch of oddball hops I ordered from HopsDirect in December, which I vacuum-sealed into small packages. I'm hoping to do an IPA of interest. So here's what I'm planning: 8.5lb Extra Light DME 12oz Crystal 40L 2 vials fresh WLP001 (missed my Friday session for a build-up on one vial, oops) (and I have a US05 packet, just in case) (this should get me a SG of 1.071) I'm using a 10G kettle, so full boil with 6.5G distilled water (may sub one gallon of spring water to harden it a bit). Here's what I have for hops (pelleted, in a nylon mesh bag): 1# Super Galena @ 12.0AA 1# Bravo @ 14.0AA 1# Belma @ 9.8AA 1# Cascade @ 7.0AA I love citrusy hops, and high bitterness. I'm a big fan of DFH 60 and 90, Sixpoint's Resin, Lag's Maximus IPA and Hop Stoopid, Dominion's Double-D... I don't like most of the C's (Centennial can take a leap, and as I'm in Grand Rapids, seems like everything Founders and Bell's does is Centennial lately). I read up on these hops fairly heavily, and here's what I'm thinking for a schedule: 1.0oz Bravo @ 60min 1.0oz Bravo @ 40min 1.0oz Super Galena @ 30min 1.0oz Super Galena @ 10min 1.0oz Super Galena @ 5min continuously down to 1min 1.0oz Bravo @ 5min continuously down to 1min 1.0oz Bravo @ flameout So, yeah, it's kind of looking like a Pliny, but I have my bags set up in 3oz and 2oz increments, so it kind of works. I was thinking of an ounce of Cascade in dry-hop, but I'm not sure if that'll blend well with the more citrusy hops above. Anyone care to help a dad out? I'm not too stressed about it, should be fun no matter what. Neighbor dads are coming over to shoot the stuff while I brew, so hopefully I don't forget my schedule! TIA! Dan
The addition of spring water will help accentuate your hops, so that seems in line with what you're trying to achieve. Cascade is a very citrusy hop, so it should blend well. Alternatively, you could try something more neutral and fragrant (Saaz, Ahtanum, etc.). The 40 minute Bravo - That's going to be almost exclusively bittering, so you could probably use less hops and just move that addition to 60 minutes. The 30 minute Super Galena - Is it for bittering or flavor? If it's for bittering, then moving it to 60 minutes will let you use less for the same effect. If it's for flavor, then you'll probably get better flavor from adding it at 20 minutes or first wort hopping. But perhaps more important, I calculate > 140 IBU from your hop schedule. It's difficult to push the dissolved alpha acids past 60 IBU. If you're serious about this level of hoppiness, then you might think about extensive use of first wort hopping and dry hopping to get you there.
Torque2K has 1 gallon of spring water, 6.5 gallons of distilled. I do not know whether he has gypsum, and he's brewing today. Spring water contains small amounts of calcium, magnesium, and sodium ions, just as water from Burton-on-Trent and Duesseldorf and other noted hoppy beer brewing centers. A small step toward such water chemistry by using a little spring water will help accentuate the hop flavor. I hope to encourage the impulse.

California Adolphia [Adolphia californica Wats.]
Listing CNPS List 2 R-E-D Code 1-2-1
State/Federal. Status -- None RHAMNACEAE Dec.-Apr.
Global Rank G3 State Rank S2.1
Distribution: Coastal San Diego County; Baja California, Mexico
Habitat: This short shrub is often intermixed with Diegan Sage Scrub, but occasionally occurs in peripheral chaparral habitats, particularly hillsides near creeks. The California Adolphia (sometimes called California Spinebush) is usually associated with Eriogonum fasciculatum and Artemisia californica in xeric locales where shrub canopy reaches four or five feet in height. During late summer and fall it may be virtually leafless, and therefore not apparent from a distance; however, its spiny stems are readily noted at close range. The San Miguel and Friant soils are both quite amenable to California Adolphia.
Known Sites: California Adolphia is still found at a variety of coastal San Diego County locales. Substantial populations occur south of Del Dios Highway and 1 mile southwest of Lake Hodges Dam on steep north-facing slopes, and on south-facing slopes of Escondido Creek east of Lake Val Soreno. A very extensive colony with over 1000 shrubs was found in 1990 near the Inspiration Point Cross north of the Questhaven Retreat. One of the largest sites noted is a football field sized colony almost entirely composed of Adolphia upstream of the Sweetwater Reservoir, south of the old wooden bridge, on the south side of the river. Several thousand are found across the river and just upstream where they are a dominant element within the sage scrub. Scattered sites are in the hills south of the Sweetwater Reservoir and on the flanks of Mother Miguel Mountain. Another large population occurs on a west-facing slope east of Saxony Road near Batiquitos Lagoon. This shrub was noted in limited numbers at numerous other surveyed sites including the finger canyon east of Dillon Road on southern Otay Mesa, at scattered locales in Otay Valley east of the Interstate 805, in the sage scrub north of Lower Otay Lake, below Sweetwater Dam, a hillside west of Lake Murray Dam, on the southwestern flanks of Black Mountain near Rancho Penasquitos, along San Marcos Creek below San Marcos Dam, west of Melrose Drive and south of Shadowridge Drive in Vista, and on north-facing slopes of Peńasquitos Canyon just south of the water treatment plant near Poway. Small populations were seen near Akita Lane in Rancho Santa Fe, at the eastern terminus of Rosemont Street in La Jolla, near the Fairbanks Country Club south of San Dieguito Road, south of Aliso Canyon Road near Rancho Santa Fe, on the Green Oaks Ranch at Agua Hedionda Creek, on canyon slopes west of Black Mountain Road and north of Peńasquitos Canyon, on the eastern boundary of Fairbanks Ranch, near Mercy Road east of Interstate 15, and near the intersection of Poinsettia Avenue and Palomar Airport Road. Also, old reports on the periphery of its known range are near southern Camp Pendleton at Moro Hill, as well as to the southeast of most reports near Barrett Junction. Old Biological survey reports note sites, northwest of Lake Hodges Dam, near Lake Calavera, west of the Olivenhain Cemetery, on Rancho Aqua Hedionda Y Los Manos near Aqua Hedionda Creek, near El Apajo Road just south and beyond the Rancho San Dieguito boundary, 0.5 mile north of La Zanja Canyon and 1 mile east of San Dieguito Valley, southwest of Sienna Canyon Drive in Encinitas, Sundance Mountain near Carmel Mountain Drive, between Evans Point and Letterbox Canyon, and near the intersection of Fairmont and Montezuma Roads in the vicinity of San Diego State University. Data Base records are from the Otay River near the mouth of Johnson Canyon, northeast of Agua Hedionda Lagoon west of El Camino Real Road between Skyline Road and Neblina Drive, 2 miles north of San Marcos Creek and east of El Camino Real to the north of the golf course, 2 miles east of the San Dieguito Reservoir and 0.6 mile south of the San Dieguito River north of a dammed pond, the Kelly Ranch about 1.1 mile south of Calavera Lake in Carlsbad, 0.8 mile south of Highway 78 and 0.9 mile east of El Camino Real in Carlsbad, between Interstate 15 and Black Mountain Road 0.5 mile north of Mira Mesa Boulevard, adjacent to Interstate 15 and Chicarita Creek from 1.0 to 1.7 miles north of Poway Road and to the northeast, southwest flank of Paint Mountain near Rancho Santa Fe, north of confluence of Lusardi Creek and San Dieguito River east of Rancho Santa Fe, north of Artesian Road and 1.5 miles south of the San Dieguito River, 1 mile east of the San Dieguito Reservoir, 1 mile from San Diego State University near the western corner of Yerba Santa Drive and Montezuma Road, one block south of Mission Gorge Road near Margerum Avenue, Alvarado Canyon 0.5 mile southwest of Lake Murray, on Black Mountain Road about 0.4 mile northeast of 4-S Ranch and 0.5 mile east of Artesian Road, the east slope of Battle Mountain, north and south of Paco Lago Road and west of Via Abertura Road near Fairbanks Ranch, north of Manchester overlooking the San Elijo Lagoon, Lux Canyon in Encinitas, southwest side of Evans Point Headland near Agua Hedionda Lagoon, just south of Encinitas Road about 400 yards from the junction with Linda Vista Road, Lopez Ridge, south of Lake Hodges and 2.5 miles west of Battle Mountain, northern tributary canyons of La Jolla Valley on the 4-S Ranch 3.5-4.5 miles south of Lake Hodges, 1.2 miles north of San Marcos Creek between El Camino Real and Unicornio Street, 1.2 and 1.8 and 2.1 miles southwest of Lake San Marcos Dam near Santa Fe Road realignment, north of San Marcos Creek and 0.3 mile south of Alga Road, San Marcos Creek near Rancho de los Quiotes, 0.5 mile west of San Francisco Peak and 0.4 mile northeast of Cerro de la Calavera, Evans Point east to approximately 0.5 mile west of Mount Hinton, near Carlsbad 0.5 mile south of Mount Hinton, southwest of Mount Hinton near the intersection of Palomar Airport Road and El Camino Real, west side of Green Valley on the Ecke Ranch 0.6 mile southwest of intersection of La Costa Avenue and El Camino Real, 2 miles north of intersection of Encinitas Boulevard with Manchester Avenue and 1 mile east of El Camino Real, 1 mile southeast of La Costa Country Club east of Green Valley, north of Batiquitos Lagoon and 1.2 miles northwest of La Costa Country Club, Batiquitos Lagoon approximately 1 mile northeast of the intersection of Interstate 5 and La Costa Avenue, 0.25 mile west of intersection of El Camino Real and Arenal Road, north of bend on Lusardi Creek approximately 2-2.5 km from confluence with San Dieguito River, 1 km south southeast of confluence of Lusardi Creek and San Dieguito River, south of La Jolla Valley and 4.8 km due south of Lake Hodges Dam, near Carmel Mountain, and a number of locales northeast and northwest of intersection of Black Mountain Road and McGonigle Road on Black Mountain Ranch.
Collected south in Baja California to 30 6' North by Moran (SD 87216) at Sauzalito-2. Lightly collected in Baja with 14 specimens deposited in the San Diego Natural History Museum's herbarium.
Status: California Adolphia is substantially declining due to urban growth; still healthy populations are extant. This spiny shrub is sometimes a dominant shrub on hillsides, and such sites should be protected. Although Adolphia is not uncommon in southwestern San Diego County, a decade of continued urbanization along the coast could significantly reduce the populations now extant. California Adolphia should be considered for native revegetation projects in suitable habitat.

The LCMVBeamformer object implements a linear constraint minimum variance beamformer.
To compute the beamformed signal:
Define and set up your LCMV beamformer. See Construction.
Call step to perform the beamforming operation according to the properties of phased.LCMVBeamformer. The behavior of step is specific to each object in the toolbox.
H = phased.LCMVBeamformer creates a linear constraint minimum variance (LCMV) beamformer System object™, H. The object performs narrowband LCMV beamforming on the received signal.
H = phased.LCMVBeamformer(Name,Value) creates an LCMV beamformer object, H, with each specified property Name set to the specified Value. You can specify additional name-value pair arguments in any order as (Name1,Value1,...,NameN,ValueN).
Constraint |
Constraint matrix Specify the constraint matrix used for LCMV beamforming as an N-by-K matrix. Each column of the matrix is a constraint and N is the number of elements in the sensor array. Default: [1; 1] |
DesiredResponse |
Desired response vector Specify the desired response used for LCMV beamforming as a column vector of length K, where K is the number of constraints in the Constraint property. Each element in the vector defines the desired response of the constraint specified in the corresponding column of the Constraint property. Default: 1, which corresponds to a distortionless response |
DiagonalLoadingFactor |
Diagonal loading factor Specify the diagonal loading factor as a positive scalar. Diagonal loading is a technique used to achieve robust beamforming performance, especially when the sample support is small. This property is tunable. Default: 0 |
TrainingInputPort |
Add input to specify training data To specify additional training data, set this property to true and use the corresponding input argument when you invoke step. To use the input signal as the training data, set this property to false. Default: false |

John Bolton: Iran's Big Victory in Geneva – WSJ.com
Posted By MB Snow On October 4, 2009 @ 11:16 pm In Uncategorized | Comments Disabled
We are now even further from eliminating Tehran's threat.
By JOHN BOLTON
The most widely touted outcome of last week's Geneva talks with Iran was the "agreement in principle" to send approximately one nuclear-weapon's worth of Iran's low enriched uranium (LEU) to Russia for enrichment to 19.75% and fabrication into fuel rods for Tehran's research reactor. President Barack Obama says the deal represents progress, a significant confidence-building measure.
In fact, the agreement constitutes another in the long string of Iranian negotiating victories over the West. Any momentum toward stricter sanctions has been dissipated, and Iran's fraudulent, repressive regime again hobnobs with the U.N. Security Council's permanent members. Consider the following problems:
• Is there a deal or isn't there? Diplomacy's three slipperiest words are "agreement in principle." Iran's Ambassador to Britain exclaimed after the talks in Geneva, "No, no!" when asked if his country had agreed to ship LEU to Russia; it had "not been discussed yet." An unnamed Iranian official said that the Geneva deal "is just based on principles. We have not agreed on any amount or any numbers." Bargaining over the deal's specifics could stretch out indefinitely.
Other issues include whether Iran will have "observers" at Russian enrichment facilities. If so, what new technologies might those observers glean? And, since Tehran's reactor is purportedly for medical purposes, will Mr. Obama deny what Iran pretends to need to refuel it in 2010?

Notes & Reviews:
At the end of the Second World War, the great conductor Hans Schmidt-Isserstedt founded the Sinfonieorchester des Norddeutschen Rundfunks. The orchestra's first guest conductor was Wilhelm Furtwängler who on October 27, 1951 conducted a Brahms concert that has since become legendary. This SACD reissue presents this unforgettable moment in music with the best possible recorded sound. The label's first release of this material was awarded a Diapason d'Or du Siècle.

Lots to cover here;
I have abandoned screening on dividend.com for high-yield stocks with monthly and quarterly payouts. It has been replaced with screening on barchart.com and finviz.com as I believe both of those sites' screeners better represent stocks with my goals in mind (high dividend yield and capital appreciation).
Here is the current list of stocks screened from each site;
barchart.com: BKCC FULL IVR MFA TICC TWO
finviz.com: ARI CMO MCC MFA RSO TCRD TWO
It should be noted that the above lists change quite frequently, perhaps even more than once per day.
Then, I run those lists against my charts (1 year weekly and 3 month daily) and plot them on the spreadsheets. I have also included the ex-dividend dates from dividend.com on the spreadsheets. One might argue that if an ex-dividend date is approaching it might be advisable to 'get heavy' in a particular stock so as to capture as much dividend as possible.
I look for "buy signals" on the 3 month daily charts, and eliminate any stocks from the 'buy list' that are not showing "buy signals". "Buy Signals" also change frequently…
Here are stocks from the watch lists with "buy signals";
barchart.com: BKCC FULL IVR TICC TWO
finviz.com: ARI CMO MFA RSO TCRD TWO
NOTE: MFA is on both watch lists, but when I looked at the charts it changed while I was switching between symbol lists. It is now going back and forth, so I will omit it from my "buy list" this week. MCC (on finviz.com watch list) is also fluctuating, so it shall also be omitted this week.
I try to have all of this ready well before the #sharebuilder update, which is today @ 5PM because of the Labor Day Holiday on September 3rd. Usually, the update is ready sometime after Noon-ish.
Here is the current list of stocks I am buying with my Sharebuilder AIP;
I am going 'heavy' with stocks that have ex-dividend dates in the near future.

If you've ever caught an episode of the TV series Monk, you know about the strange behavior of Adrian Monk, the Defective Detective. The title character has obsessive-compulsive disorder, or OCD.
Without treatment, OCD is crippling and disabling. The average person with OCD suffers more than seven years before seeking help, often because he or she is embarrassed or unaware that this mental disorder can be treated.
Understanding OCD
People with OCD suffer from obsessions and compulsions. Obsessions are anxiety-producing thoughts that repeat themselves over and over. Compulsions are behaviors that people with OCD perform repeatedly to get rid of the distressing obsessions.
The symptoms vary widely from person to person. OCD often starts when a person is a child or teenager, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Without treatment, OCD can last for a lifetime.
You may have the condition if any of the following are true and cause you distress:
Washing and cleaning
Checking and repeating
Thinking rituals
Worries and pure obsessions
Many people with OCD benefit from medications and behavioral therapy in which they're very gradually exposed to circumstances that trigger their compulsive behaviors.
If you have symptoms of OCD, seek treatment immediately. Once it's identified, it's highly treatable, and many people who receive the appropriate behavioral therapy are able to regain control of their lives.

Double Star Spotlight: Ina and Rachael
by Sara Levine in Behind the Scenes, July 27, 2011This week's episode featured two Food Network superstars: the queen of 30 Minute Meals, Rachael Ray, and the Barefoot Contessa herself, Ina Garten. Needless to say, it was an intimidating double-whammy for the finalists. Whitney got so emotional upon seeing Ina – the woman who taught her to cook – that she burst into tears. Susie wanted so badly to impress and emulate Rachael that she let her nerves get the better of her.
Check out our exclusive behind-the-scenes interviews with Ina and Rachael to hear their expert advice for our aspiring Food Network stars.
Tell us: Who would you rather cook for, Rachael or Ina?

I agree that Ina looks really fat. If her fat is that fat, imagine what the rest of her body must look like.
If FN can edit out Susie's blunders on the last episode, they least they can do is to airbrush Ina so she doesn't look so fat.
Is that pot used to catch the sweat dripping off of Ina's four chins?
Both ladies seem like they would be fun to be around. Rachel has a great personality but not once have I been inclined to try one of her recipes though I have used some of her tips. I have tried quite a few of Ina's dishes and also have used some of her tips. I think they are both successful because they have very distinct POV's and cook a variety of food. I'll tell you what I'd really like. I'd like to be in Ina's garden sipping wine while both of them cooked for me! Sort of like a mini Chopped challenge. I'd tell them the ingredients I like, chicken, shrimp, pasta, lemon, lavender, chocolate and have them both bring me a small appetizer, entrée and dessert each and we'd all sit down together and eat.

Master of the Metropolis
Planning Commissioner Amanda Burden discusses her ambitious blueprint for America's largest city.
Now that New York City's Mayor Michael Bloomberg is remaining in office for a third term, presumably the agenda set out by Amanda Burden, director of the Department of City Planning and chair of the planning commission, will stay its course.
Appointed head of city planning in 2002, and a planning commissioner since 1990, Burden approaches the future from a position of perceptible strength. In October she was named the 2009 laureate for the J.C. Nichols Prize for Visionaries in Urban Development awarded by the Urban Land Institute (ULI). Burden then turned around and gave the $100,000 prize money back to ULI to establish the Global Award for Public Open Spaces. Such a generous gesture accords well with her thrust as a city planner to encourage more urban parks and open space.
To facilitate the conversion of the derelict, elevated railroad tracks along Manhattan's west side into the linear High Line park [record, October 2009, page 84], Burden spearheaded the rezoning of the Special West Chelsea District, which extends generally from West 16th Street to West 30th Street, between 10th and 11th Avenues. With air rights transferred from the city-owned High Line property, the new district allows higher-density residential construction along the avenues. The zoning not only seeks to keep low-rise buildings for art galleries and shops on the cross streets intact, but has also lowered street wall heights on portions of 10th to keep new development in scale with the existing context.
Based on what you have seen and read about this project, how would you grade it? Use the stars below to indicate your assessment, five stars being the highest rating.
The Chelsea rezoning is only one of 100 rezonings — totaling 8,400 blocks, or about a fifth of the city — that Burden has undertaken in New York's five boroughs. "We were prompted by projections of a population of 9.1 million in the city by 2030," she says. "We needed a strategic blueprint so that development could occur where a significant infrastructure for transit existed." Areas that lack this infrastructure, she determined, should not get too dense. She estimates 80 rezonings, such as for City Island in the Bronx or Bensonhurst in Brooklyn, actually were executed to protect the neighborhood's scale and character.
With a reported 450 projects across the city now on hold, the recession is having an impact on planning agenda. The down time has enabled Burden to focus on strengthening the city's sustainability initiatives, which includes finding ways to give building owners incentives to save energy. Burden also envisions more walkable neighborhoods with mixed uses and mixed incomes, and currently her department is working closely with agencies for housing, transportation, and health to heighten the awareness of "smart growth" techniques.
Another goal is developing a comprehensive waterfront development plan. In addition to bringing open space and parks to the rivers' edges, Burden says her department is studying ways to improve public and freight transport. She adds: "This will be a fantastic legacy for the city."

Manchester City's pricey defence needs more time to gel says Shay Given
The former Newcastle player has watched City's sound start to the season - keeping four clean sheets in their opening four games - give way to defensive uncertainty, despite the £38 million Hughes spent to bring Kolo Toure and Joleon Lescott to the club, and he has now been beaten in each of City's last seven games. Indeed, City were fortunate to escape from Eastlands on Sunday with a point against Fulham after Roy Hodgson's side created a host of clear-cut opportunities in addition to goals from Damien Duff and Clint Dempsey, the latter scoring from a set-piece, City's apparent Achilles heel in recent weeks. Premier League Round-up: Wigan beat West Brom late on, Aston Villa held by Fulham'It will take a bit of time,' said the Irishman, 'we're all getting to know each other's games and we've had a lot of players come to the club in a short space of time. We have to look at the set-plays and see where we can get stronger. 'The games we were winning 1-0 and 2-0 earlier in the season came from clean sheets, and we have to get back to that and hopefully we will. Myself, the defenders and the team as a whole as a unit want to be defending better because clean sheets give you a great base.'

… and now for the less boring (hopefully funnier) personal bio
I am an Enthusiast. It deserves the capital letter because I am so enthusiastic about so many things, my enthusiasm sometimes gets me into trouble with my family banker (myself). As a case in point – I doubt I really needed that fifth fly rod when I already had four; and did I really need that 29er mountain bike when I only had the 26er for 3 months? For the record – I did sell that one to get the new one, but still. Luckily I have the most understanding wife on earth.
My Enthusiasm can be broadly categorised into three facets:
The first and foremost facet of my enthusiasm has to be my family. My stunning wife Tami, my adorable daughter Shannon Blake – The Apple of My Eye – and my parents, siblings, friends and in-laws who all give me the support, freedom and motivation to be enthusiastic about anything that tickles my fancy.
Secondly, as the historical development of the human race would have it, I seem to have to work in order to able to enjoy certain other pleasures in life. Seeing as though it is a necessity, I figured out at an early age that I might as well love what I do to put bread on the table. This is where my enthusiasm for digital comes in. Digital, in all of its aspects, has been a part of my life for a long time, and I am blessed to be able to earn a living teaching clients how to improve their businesses through the use of everything that the digital channel has to offer. I am a Digital Marketer and I thrive on the ever-changing nature of our industry.
I am understandably also enthusiastic about my leisure time. This is my play time and over the years I have figured out many a way to enjoy myself away from the city with my loved ones. I love fishing – all types of fishing. As long as there are fish involved I don't really mind how I catch them – save for a certain preference for the gentlemanly art of casting a fly (it just seems more sporting to me). I love mountain biking as well, this being a relatively new hobby which started as a way to control some of my middle-aged spread after a 10 year sabbatical from this thing we call exercise. Luckily for me I live 5 minutes from the Modderfontein Nature Reserve and I get to go and ride with the Wildebeest and Zebra every weekend and most Wednesday nights (told you I had an understanding wife).
Lastly – in hindsight, there are four things I am enthusiastic about – my enthusiasm for capturing our awe-inspiring African sunsets on Instagram makes me jump up and scramble to the upstairs balcony on most afternoons. I'll post a few of those photos in the blog and you can let me know what you think.
I hope some of my enthusiasm makes it through to every person that I have the privilege of meeting in my journey through life and maybe, just maybe, some of it will make it through to this blog so that it gets an update more than once a year.

HCC looks at the old jail for a new C.I.By Jerry Gunn Staff GAINESVILLE - The design contract for a new $4-million correctional institute was not approved as planned by Hall County Commissioners Thursday night. Commissioners want to look at an alternative; putting the C.I. in the old county jail downtown on Main Street.
With Correction Corporation of Americas departure from the jail at years end, Commissioner Jeff Stowe said Gainesville officials want the county to consider the jail for a new C.I. instead of building a new one. Its been brought to my attention that the city would like for us to look to see if it would make sense for it to go there and also if the Sheriff would entertain staying there for a longer period of time, Stowe said. Id like to give our staff time to look at those possibilities before we start design work on a new C.I. Commissioners passed Stowes motion to table the $248,000 C.I. design contract until the commissions first 2014 meeting January 9th. Commissioner Craig Lutz said he wanted staff to look at how much it would cost to operate the C.I. in the jail in addition to the retrofit cost of converting it. That facility wasnt designed as a C.I. and my concern is trying to fit into that model, Lutz said. Commission Chairman Dick Mecum also wanted the motion amended to check permits on housing state inmates in the jail. Look at the state permits and see where were at with putting state inmates back in that facility, Mecum said. (CCA) announced two weeks ago the company's plan to close its Gainesville illegal immigrant detention facility by the end of 2013. The company said the decision to leave came because of a continuous decline in the jail population. Last year Hall County agreed to sell the property to the city of Gainesville for $7.2 million and CCA leased the jail from the city. CIVIL SERVICE BOARD REPLACED Commissioners passed two resolutions doing away with the county's civil service board and calling for the appointment of the Chief Registrar by the Commission instead of the Senior Judge of the Hall Superior Court. Chairman Mecum said due process on appeals would be delivered by an administrative law judge appointed by the commissioners instead of a three member Civil Service panel. "They often times stray from the law and go more on feelings, friendships, or politics," Mecum said. Mecum added a hearing officer who is an attorney would base decisions on the facts of the case. Both resolutions require action by Hall County legislators during next year's General Assembly. RIVERKEEPER DISAGREES WITH AGREEMENT Commissioners drew opposition with their adoption of a joint agreement with the City of Gainesville supporting the proposed Glades Reservoir for future water supply. Atlanta attorney Juliet Cohen, representing Chattahoochee Riverkeeper, said her environmental group believes the big North Hall reservoir is unnecessary. "All the water that is dedicated or intended to go into Glades Reservoir is already being captured in Lake Lanier," Cohen said. Cohen added that population projections used to justify the Glades project were inflated. Local opponent Billy Brookshire from Gainesville said the project would eventually drive taxes up and claimed consultant fees are 'bleeding the county dry'. BIG PROJECT TABLED Gibbs said he wanted it delayed so developers could work out how the project would get county sewer. "We would like to request a 30 day extension or deferral for this case," Clark told commissioners.

Flexi Cowl
By: Alicia Ramirez, Guest Contributer
We are reaching the end of January, and I'm getting tired of wrapping the old scarf around my face to keep my nose, cheeks, and chin from falling off (as I write this, its -25C-13F). So, what better way to keep my face warm than a cowl? This Flexi Cowl is perfect for cold weather, and the lovely colors make it the perfect winter accessory for men and women alike. Make one for yourself and one for all your friends and family. They make wonderful gifts and are easy enough for crochet fans of all skill levels to make.
- 1-2 skeins light weight yarn (328 yards)
- 3.75mm hook crochet hook
- Diagram
Make a chain of a multiple of 4 + 2 (mine was of 82).
Row 1: ch 2 (counts as a sc), sc 1, * ch 2, skip 2, sc 2 * to the end.
Row 2: ch 3 (counts as a dc), dc 1, * ch 2, skip 2, dc 2 * to the end.
Repeat rows 1 and 2 until desired length, ending with a row 1.
The cowl is a flexible cowl, since you can button it tight to look more like a scarf, or wear it looser around the neck.
To finish it, add the button on the edge. They should fit through the little holes.

Do I turn after each row or start another row? Can you tell me the name of the yarn I love the colors. crochet lover
To answer MrsJonesy's question about 80 or 82... Chain any multiple of 4. Then chain 2 extra to start the next row. It's the same as if you're chaining up from any previous row. The chain 2 doesn't count as a stitch, so in this example, you'll wind up with 80 stitches across, not 82.
I'm confused by the instructions. Did you chain 82 then add a chain 2 to start your first row or chain 80 and then chain 2 starting the first row? I keep ending my first row incorrectly with two chains left, which doesn't match the diagram. Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm trying to make this for a Christmas gift. Thanks!
I love the pattern. It reminds me of filet crochet, which I love to do. I'm going to make this one. Thanks for sharing
I like the visual of the stitches. It is helpful to a visual person like me and it isn't always possible to visualize the arrangement of the stitches.
love this pattern. the scarf is just beautiful ! my wife will really enjoy this!!!!!
I look forward to making this one! The wind and cold are terrible lately!

Tax season has just begun and the early birds have already begun filing their tax returns. We all know the deadline is April 15 each year while the extension deadline is October 15 (a six month deferral). In the past, the extension deadline used to be August 15 (a four month extension to the deadline) with two more months after that if you had a good reason. Then the IRS dropped the reason requirement and the two-step process. Now you get an automatic six months deferral.
Usually, people ask for an extension to the filing deadline if they need time to consider proper reporting, get professional advice or file an accurate return. It is important to get it right the first time because amended returns are more likely to be scrutinized and may increase the risk of an audit.
Some people believe if you file closer to the deadline (both normal and extended) the risk of being chosen for audit is less because there will usually be a huge number of returns coming in at the last minute and yours will more easily slip under the radar. Is that true? Of course the IRS would never admit such a thing (if it exists in the first place). And no one can truly tell.
I personally believe filing at the last minute does not decrease your chances of an audit. This is simply because all tax returns are vetted through by the IRS computers first (not manually) and only when a red flag is triggered then a pair of human eyeballs sees your return. Thus whether the computers vet through 100 or 1,000,000 returns, it's not going to make any significant difference.
So if you do need more time to file your tax returns, you should request an extension. But do not think it affects your chances of an audit one way or the other. Requesting an extension involves mailing in a Form 4868. You could ask your return preparer to do it, do it with TurboTax or other commercial software, or do it electronically yourself. Just go to www.IRS.gov and look for the Application for Automatic Extension of Time To File US Individual link. For more IRS help on this matter, see IRS Tax Topic 304 Extensions of Time to File Your Tax Return.
One crucial thing to remember is that any extension given by the IRS is an extension to file, not to pay. So be sure you pay on time, then file later when given the extension.

Episode Information
Bush's War (Part 2 of 2)
Aired March 25 at 9:00 p.m. on CPTV
More than anything else, the Iraq war will be the lasting legacy of the Bush presidency. "Bush's War†(Part Two) examines that war — beginning with the quick American victory in Iraq and the early mistakes that were made, and then recounting how chaos, looting and violence quickly engulfed the country. As American forces realized they were unprepared for the looting that followed the invasion, plans for a swift withdrawal of troops were put on hold. With only a few weeks' preparation, American administrator L. Paul Bremer was sent to find a political solution to a rapidly deteriorating situation. Bremer's first moves were to disband the Iraqi military and remove members of Saddam Hussein's party from the government. They were decisions that the original head of reconstruction, General Jay Garner (Ret.), begged Bremer to reconsider at the time. Now they are seen by others as one of the first in a series of missteps that would lead Iraq into a full-blown insurgency. visit the website...

Today marks the first day of the Spring 2013 semester. If you're new to campus, you may not have any idea where you need to go. Thankfully, FourSquare, a geo-location app, will help you find your way in very little time.
FourSquare is a free mobile app (available for Android and iOS mobile devices) that allows you to locate and discover information about Hinds CC campus buildings (including administrative offices, classrooms, recreational venues) and other points of interest without having to ask for help.
To get started with FourSquare, you'll need to download the app in your device's store (i.e. Android's Google Play or iOS's App Store). After you have installed the app and created a user account, you can search for buildings or venues.
To find a location on FourSquare, simply search for the building name (e.g. Cain-Cochran Hall) or building code (e.g. CCHY). Note: A list of building codes can be accessed via campus maps. Once you've found the desired location, you can read more about the building and/or view photos of the venue. You can also get directions from your current location to the building.
FourSquare is a helpful resource for new students as well as visitors to Hinds Community College. We've taken the time to map, photograph & provide descriptions of our six locations as a way to help you save time and energy. If you are interested in viewing all the locations we've mapped, please check out Hinds Community College's FourSquare Lists.
I'm Jil Wright, Director of Web Communications at Hinds. David and I spoke to the Drafting and Design Technology students last week about social media, electronic portfolios, marketing yourself and mobile apps. We had a great time and left with a renewed enthusiasm for what we do. I was also inspired to finish this post on mobile apps that I believe are essential for students.
Hinds Community College has a mobile app and it is being improved all the time. It's free & available for iPhone, Android & Blackberry. It allows you to search for courses, keep up with Hinds CC news, view calendar events, search library offerings, view video, find contact information, and stay up to date in the event of emergency situations. It is a must have app for Hinds students. You can download the iHindsCC app for your mobile device here.. We encourage you to leave feedback about additional features you would find useful in the comment section below.
In my opinion, the most essential app for mobile computing is Dropbox. It is a cloud storage service that allows you to save your files & access them from anywhere with an internet connection. The free plan gives 2 GB of storage space. Dropbox integrates with many different mobile apps so that you can save, access and share your digital belongings.
CloudOn is a free app that allows you to create and edit documents, presentations & spreadsheets with Microsoft Office. If you're an Office user and own a tablet, this app is indispensable. It works seamlessly with Dropbox and is available for iOS and Android.
The Evernote app is nice for collecting web clips, images, and text notes for research. It's really good to use to save anything you'd like to remember or review later.
New in town? Don't get lost! As David mentioned in a previous post, we are adding information about each of our six locations to Foursquare all the time. We encourage you to download Foursquare to assist you on campus. Check-in to locations on your campus and add photos and tips to help others. If you need help finding a restaurant, store, or entertainment venue, I suggest Yelp. It provides reviews of locations & allows you to contribute by reviewing places you visit. The YP Mobile and AroundMe apps are great for locating everything from a local carwash to the nearest coffee shop.
If you need help keeping up with due dates for assignments, check out inClass or iStudiez Pro. These apps have features that include reminders, the ability to take audio notes and more. Both apps are low cost and are incredible for keeping your academic life in order.
If you're a visual learner, the free Paper app for iPad or PenUltimate, which costs $0.99, are great for handwriting notes (or doodling). Mindomo is great for creating mind maps on your mobile device or desktop. These apps work even better with a stylus.
If you're a student in a visual discipline, I recommend Minimal Folio for iPad for use as a digital portfolio for your work. I love it! It's $2.99, but it integrates Dropbox and is awesome for showing graphic work or video to potential employers.
I hope to add more apps to the list soon. I hope a few are useful. If you have a favorite app, let us know.

More News & Events
A video presentation of the National Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in La Crosse, Wisconsin, designed by Professor Stroik.
STEUBENVILLE, OH— Duncan G. Stroik, the creator of some of the most beautiful Catholic churches and chapels in the United States, will speak at Franciscan University of Steubenville on the Church's rich heritage of sacred buildings. His talk, "Francis, Rebuild My Church: The Franciscan Tradition of Sacred Architecture," will take place in the Tony and Nina Gentile Gallery from 7:30 - 9:30 p.m on Tuesday, November 19.
Stroik is an author, practicing architect, and professor of architecture at the University of Notre Dame, whose work combines beauty, durability, function, and a deep knowledge of Catholic liturgy. His built work includes Our Lady of the Most Holy Trinity Chapel in Santa Paula, California, and the Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe in La Crosse, Wisconsin. Stroik is also the author of The Church Building as a Sacred Place: Beauty, Transcendence, and the Eternal, and the founding editor of the Sacred Architecture Journal.
"Sacred art in all its forms engages the senses in order to lead the mind and heart to the contemplation and love of God," said Dr. Michael Sirilla, associate professor of theology at Franciscan. "Stroik's talk is very relevant for our campus community as he will explain the distinctive features of the Franciscan tradition in sacred architecture."
Stroik's talk is free and open to the public, and is sponsored by the Theology Department, the Fine Arts Department, and the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs. Copies of Stroik's book will be available for sale at the event.

To observe and compare the efficacy of intratympanic application of dexamethasone (DXM) for the treatment of refractory sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL), the DXM was given in three different ways: by tympanic membrane injection, by drip through a ventilation tube, and by perfusion through a round window catheter.
We conducted a nonrandomized retrospective clinical trial involving 55 patients with refractory SSNHL. For 21 patients (the perfusion group), DXM (2.5 mg/0.5 ml) was perfused transtympanically through a round window catheter using an infusion pump for 1 h twice a day for 7 d giving a total amount of 35.0 mg. For 23 patients (the injection group), DXM (2.5 mg/time) was injected by tympanic membrane puncture at intervals of 2 d on a total of four occasions giving a total amount of 10.0 mg. For 11 patients (the drip group), DXM (2.5 mg/0.5 ml) was dripped via a ventilation tube placed by myringotomy, once on the first day and twice a day for the remaining 6 d giving a total amount of 32.5 mg. Thirty-two patients with refractory SSNHL who refused to undertake further treatments were defined as the control group. Hearing recovery and complications were compared among the groups. Hearing results were evaluated based on a four-frequency (0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0 kHz) pure tone average (PTA).
Post-treatment audiograms were obtained one month after treatments were completed. The improvements in average PTA for the perfusion, injection, and drip groups were 9.0, 8.6, and 1.7 dB, respectively. Hearing improvement was significantly greater in the perfusion and injection groups than in the control group (1.4 dB) (P<0.05). In the perfusion group, 8 out of 21 patients (38.1%) had a PTA improvement of 15–56 dB (mean 29.8 dB); in the injection group, 8 out of 23 patients (34.8%) had a PTA improvement of 16–54 dB (mean 24.9 dB); in the drip group, 1 of 11 patients (9.1%) had a PTA improvement of 26.0 dB; in the control group, 3 out of 32 patients (9.4%) had a PTA improvement of 15–36 dB (mean 14.9 dB).
Topical intratympanic application of DXM is a safe and effective method for the treatment of SSNHL cases that are refractory to conventional therapies.
