Cities are becoming increasingly vulnerable to flooding because of rapid urbanization, installation of complex infrastructure, and changes in the precipitation patterns caused by anthropogenic climate change. While there are many previous works that have dealt with the effects of urbanization, the number of quantitative assessment studies related to the impacts of climate change on urban drainage remains, however, rather limited. This is partly due to the particular difficulties of dealing with this type of climate impact assessment for urban catchments. In particular, downscaling of outputs from global circulation models or regional climate models to urban catchment scales are needed because these models do not contain an adequate description of the rainfall governing processes at relevant high temporal and spatial resolutions. More specifically, for urban catchments these resolutions could be as small as a few kilometres spatially and as small as a few minutes temporally. Consequently, the expected results from such impact studies can be highly uncertain and dependent on the feasibility and reliability of the downscaling process. This problem becomes more challenging when dealing with the extreme runoff events since the properties of such extreme events do not necessarily reflect those of the average precipitation.

fs-extra contains methods that aren't included in the vanilla Node.js fs package. Such as mkdir -p, cp -r, and rm -rf.
Node.js: fs-extra
This module adds a few extra file system methods that aren't included in the native fs
module. It is a drop in replacement for fs
I got tired of including mkdirp
, rimraf
, and cp -r
in most of my projects.
npm install --save fs-extra
is a drop in replacement for native fs
. All methods in fs
are unmodified and attached to fs-extra
You don't ever need to include the original fs
module again:
var fs = require'fs' //this is no longer necessary
you can now do this:
var fs = require'fs-extra' //var fs = require('fs')
or if you prefer to make it clear that you're using fs-extra
and not fs
, you may want
to do this:
//var fs = require('fs') var fse = require'fs-extra'
you can also keep both, but it's redundant:
var fs = require'fs'var fse = require'fs-extra'
NOTE: You can still use the native Node.js methods. They are copied over to fs-extra
copy(src, dest, [options], callback)
Copy a file or directory. The directory can have contents. Like cp -r
Sync: copySync()
var fs = require'fs-extra' fscopy'/tmp/myfile' '/tmp/mynewfile' if err return console.errorerr console.log"success!" //copies file fscopy'/tmp/mydir' '/tmp/mynewdir' if err return console.errorerr console.log"success!" //copies directory, even if it has subdirectories or files
ensureFile(file, callback)
Ensures that the file exists. If the file that is requested to be created is in directories that do not exist, these directories are created. If the file already exists, it is NOT MODIFIED.
Alias: createFile()
Sync: createFileSync()
var fs = require'fs-extra' var file = '/tmp/this/path/does/not/exist/file.txt'fsensureFilefile console.logerr // => null //file has now been created, including the directory it is to be placed in
ensureDir(dir, callback)
Ensures that the directory exists. If the directory structure does not exist, it is created.
Sync: ensureDirSync()
var fs = require'fs-extra' var dir = '/tmp/this/path/does/not/exist'fsensureDirdir console.logerr // => null //dir has now been created, including the directory it is to be placed in
mkdirs(dir, callback)
Creates a directory. If the parent hierarchy doesn't exist, it's created. Like mkdir -p
Alias: mkdirp()
Sync: mkdirsSync()
/ mkdirpSync()
var fs = require'fs-extra' fsmkdirs'/tmp/some/long/path/that/prob/doesnt/exist' if err return console.errorerr console.log"success!" fsmkdirsSync'/tmp/another/path'
move(src, dest, [options], callback)
Moves a file or directory, even across devices.
clobber (boolean): overwrite existing file or directory
limit (number): number of concurrent moves, see ncp for more information
var fs = require'fs-extra' fsmove'/tmp/somefile' '/tmp/does/not/exist/yet/somefile' if err return console.errorerr console.log"success!"
outputFile(file, data, callback)
Almost the same as writeFile
(i.e. it overwrites), except that if the parent directory does not exist, it's created.
Sync: outputFileSync()
var fs = require'fs-extra'var file = '/tmp/this/path/does/not/exist/file.txt' fsoutputFilefile 'hello!' console.logerr // => null fsreadFilefile 'utf8' console.logdata // => hello!
outputJson(file, data, callback)
Almost the same as writeJson
, except that if the directory does not exist, it's created.
Alias: outputJSON()
Sync: outputJsonSync()
, outputJSONSync()
var fs = require'fs-extra'var file = '/tmp/this/path/does/not/exist/file.txt' fsoutputJsonfile name: 'JP' console.logerr // => null fsreadJsonfile console.logdataname // => JP
readJson(file, [options], callback)
Reads a JSON file and then parses it into an object. options
are the same that you'd pass to fs.readFile
Alias: readJSON()
Sync: readJsonSync()
, readJSONSync()
var fs = require'fs-extra' fsreadJson'./package.json' console.logpackageObjversion // => 0.1.3
can take a throws
option set to false
and it won't throw if the JSON is invalid. Example:
var fs = require'fs-extra'var file = pathjoin'/tmp/some-invalid.json'var data = "{not valid JSON"fswriteFileSyncfile data var obj = fsreadJsonSyncfile throws: falseconsole.logobj // => null
remove(dir, callback)
Removes a file or directory. The directory can have contents. Like rm -rf
Alias: delete()
Sync: removeSync()
/ deleteSync()
var fs = require'fs-extra' fsremove'/tmp/myfile' if err return console.errorerr console.log"success!" fsremoveSync'/home/jprichardson' //I just deleted my entire HOME directory.
writeJson(file, object, [options], callback)
Writes an object to a JSON file. options
are the same that you'd pass to fs.readFile
Alias: writeJSON()
Sync: writeJsonSync()
, writeJSONSync()
var fs = require'fs-extra'fswriteJson'./package.json' name: 'fs-extra' console.logerr
Third Party
Use Bluebird. See https://github.com/petkaantonov/bluebird/blob/master/API.md#promisification. fs-extra
explicitly listed as supported.
var Promise = require"bluebird"var fs = PromisepromisifyAllrequire"fs-extra"
Or you can use the package fs-extra-promise
that marries the two together.
If you like TypeScript, you can use fs-extra
with it: https://github.com/borisyankov/DefinitelyTyped/tree/master/fs-extra
File / Directory Watching
If you want to watch for changes to files or directories, then you should use chokidar.
- mfs - Monitor your fs-extra calls.
I put a lot of thought into the naming of these functions. Inspired by @coolaj86's request. So he deserves much of the credit for raising the issue. See discussion(s) here:
- https://github.com/jprichardson/node-fs-extra/issues/2
- https://github.com/flatiron/utile/issues/11
- https://github.com/ryanmcgrath/wrench-js/issues/29
- https://github.com/substack/node-mkdirp/issues/17
First, I believe that in as many cases as possible, the Node.js naming schemes should be chosen. However, there are problems with the Node.js own naming schemes.
For example, fs.readFile()
and fs.readdir()
: the F is capitalized in File and the d is not capitalized in dir. Perhaps a bit pedantic, but they should still be consistent. Also, Node.js has chosen a lot of POSIX naming schemes, which I believe is great. See: fs.mkdir()
, fs.rmdir()
, fs.chown()
, etc.
We have a dilemma though. How do you consistently name methods that perform the following POSIX commands: cp
, cp -r
, mkdir -p
, and rm -rf
My perspective: when in doubt, err on the side of simplicity. A directory is just a hierarchical grouping of directories and files. Consider that for a moment. So when you want to copy it or remove it, in most cases you'll want to copy or remove all of its contents. When you want to create a directory, if the directory that it's suppose to be contained in does not exist, then in most cases you'll want to create that too.
So, if you want to remove a file or a directory regardless of whether it has contents, just call fs.remove(path)
or its alias fs.delete(path)
. If you want to copy a file or a directory whether it has contents, just call fs.copy(source, destination)
. If you want to create a directory regardless of whether its parent directories exist, just call fs.mkdirs(path)
or fs.mkdirp(path)
wouldn't be possible without using the modules from the following authors:
If you want to contribute, please add a test. Also, don't change the version in package.json

Microsoft took yet another step today in convincing us that Windows Phone 7 will be a legitimate gaming platform. The company just unveiled XNA Game Studio 4.0, which, in addition to supporting PC and Xbox 360, will also let designers make games for the new mobile platform. Besides being great news for indies, it also means that you'll be able to use your gamertag and Avatar on the phone, as well as unlock Xbox Live Achievements.
You can read more about the technical integration of XNA and WP7 on Microsoft program manager Michael Klucher's blog. Hopefully we'll have even more details for you as the tech is rolled out during GDC.

School Board debates changes to PREP program
The future of a longstanding incentive pay policy for eligible Henrico County Public School system retirees was the topic of a budget debate at the School Board's Feb. 24 work session.
The school system's post-retirement employment program (PREP) currently offers eligible retirees 24 percent of their annual retirement-day salaries each year for as long as seven years, provided they spend at least 24 days annually working in the school system. Eighty percent of that time must be spent in a classroom. But because of budget cuts, the program is scheduled to be trimmed in the 2011-12 budget, dropping pay for program participants to 20 percent of their retirement-day salaries. The move would save $1.4 million directly and another $717,000 through expected program attrition. The board is scheduled to vote on the proposed $401.25-million budget later this month. Brookland District School Board member Linda McBride made an impassioned statement urging the board to restore funding to 24 percent if new money becomes available, as is expected. The board anticipates receiving nearly $10 million through a federal grant. "[PREP] serves as a very important tool to recruit and keep employees," McBride said. "Some recent [retirees] feel we're pulling the rug out from underneath them." To qualify for the program, a retired school system employee must have at least 16 years of service as part of the Virginia Retirement System (VRS) and must have worked for HCPS for at least 10 consecutive years prior to retirement. Currently, 488 retirees are serving and collecting payments through PREP. Tuckahoe board member Lisa Marshall said that trimming the program's funding wasn't desirable but was necessary, given the current financial status. And, she said, PREP participants earn significant pay when compared to standard substitute teachers (as much as $578 per day, compared to the standard substitute rate of $83 per day). "It's hard to explain to a constituent a daily rate of $578," Three Chopt District board member Diana Winston said, "when I have constituents who don't have weekly rates of $578." Marshall and several other board members said they'd prefer to spend any extra money on raises for current full-time teachers – who haven't had one in the past two budget years and who are not scheduled to receive one in the 2011-12 budget – instead of returning the PREP program to its existing level of funding. Winston cited growing class sizes at some middle schools and high schools in the county as examples of the challenges full-time teachers currently face. Nearly a quarter of classes at Deep Run High School, she said, contain 30 students or more. PREP is a separate program from the VRS payments for retirees, which would not be affected. Winston said she's concerned that the perception among some retirees is that the board wants to cut their retirement pay. Varina District board member John Montgomery said he would consider all possibilities before forming an opinion. Fairfield district member and board chairman Lamont Bagby suggested that officials poll teachers to see whether they'd prefer raises now or the knowledge that the PREP opportunity would exist at current funding levels later. Winston argued that the proposed funding cut would be minor and said that many PREP participants already work other jobs – including some other part-time jobs within the school system – and would not feel significant financial impact. She said that she held two other jobs while she was part of the PREP program for seven years after her retirement from full-time employment with the school system. When the board raised the service requirement for PREP participants from 20 days of service to 24 days last year, 22 PREP participants opted not to continue, Finance Director Kevin Smith told the board. Bagby and McBride agreed that the board should determine if it is committed to maintaining PREP into the future, so that current teachers know what to expect and don't feel the need to worry about becoming victims of a bait-and-switch plan. Superintendent Pat Russo told the board that during normal economic times, he wouldn't have sought to trim the program. "But ladies and gentlemen, these are not normal times," Russo said. "We have cut 100 teaching positions, we have cut 62 Central Office positions, we have made significant reductions of over $30 million in this school division. "When I spoke to some of these PREP individuals, the biggest thing they said was, 'Please keep something that would maintain the integrity of the program.'" |

Travinia brings contemporary elegance to Willow Lawn
It was another win for Willow Lawn when Travinia Italian Kitchen and Wine Bar opened there six months ago, nestled in the heart of the re-made shopping center. The contemporary American Italian restaurant boasts 13 locations up and down the East Coast, with the Henrico location opening in August.
In the same week, I hit up Travinia twice, once for lunch and once for a late dinner. At lunchtime on a weekday, I was overwhelmed by the smell of garlic and by the number of working professionals in nice suits on their lunch breaks. When we first walked in, I was concerned our meal would be a little too pricey based on the décor – it's a really nice place. Luckily, the menu has a variety of options for every budget. > Read more.
Soak up the fun
'SpongeBob' movie energizes with wit, laughter
There's a ton of sugar in The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water. Literal sugar, as SpongeBob Squarepants (Tom Kenny) and Patrick (Bill Fagerbakke) inhale their own weight in cotton candy and eat ice cream, one scoop per mouthful.
At one point we burrow into the brain of our boxy yellow hero and discover the inner workings of his brain: googly-eyed cakes and candies that giggle and sing. All of which is extremely appropriate for a film like Sponge Out of Water. Because not only is the movie sweet (the "awwww" kind of sweet), but it's the equivalent of a 30-candy bar sugar rush, zipping between ideas like a sponge on rocket skates.
The story under all this is really not that complicated. SpongeBob flips burgers at the Krusty Krab. > Read more.

- Cathy,Do you think that a visit to a local gallery or museum and a comparative study of the differences between the old used and traditional art from Africa as opposed to recent reproductions could be a useful exercise for your students.Maybe they would like to see the changes which occur when African art is taken away from the significance of its traditional culture and changed by others to suit purely commercial purposes.We have regular groups visit us from infants school to Arts students from the local university. I like to think that they all benefit from the experience. It is great to see the little ones. We supply paper and pencils and sit them down on African seats with the piece that they each choose and encourage them to draw. Some of their studies and interpretations are amazing.annOn 21/10/2008, at 3:03 AM, Cathy wrote:

The really impressive/scary thing about Gilbert Arenas' sneaker collection is that the shoes he videoed here are apparently the ones that are waiting to make the "closet cut."
"Shoes that's waiting to make my closet cut be like #floorflow #arewethereyet"
This probably means that Gilbert has even more kicks and these are just the ones that didn't get a coveted spot in Gilbert's closet. At this rate, Gilbert may want to invest in a second house to store his sneakers.

My wife turned hers in yesterday! The appointments are a month out, but they said the turn around from the time or your appointment to permit in hand is only a week. We shall see if that is true.
The number of concealed weapons permits is on the rise in Lewis & Clark County; officials tell us that they have received five times the usual number of requests for permits since the school shootings in Newtown, Connecticut....
Video of news cast is here
The interesting fact is that there are about 3000 permit holders in the county of about 65,000. Then if you take into consideration that you only need a permit to carry concealed within town/city limits, (outside of the town/city it is constitutional carry), that is a pretty high number. If I did my math correctly, that is almost 5% of the population of the county.

An FDA advisory committee unanimously voted for the approval of Prestwick Pharmaceuticals' therapy related to Huntington's. Tetrabenazine is indicated for the treatment of chorea characterized by excessive, involuntary and repetitive movements, which are the most visible and dangerous manifestations of the disease.
Prestwick says that if FDA approval goes through, tetrabenazine will be the first drug in the U.S. to treat this indication. "We are committed to continuing to work with the FDA to secure full approval of tetrabenazine," says George F. Horner III, president and CEO.
Tetrabenazine is a highly selective and reversible, centrally acting, dopamine-depleting drug and works by inhibiting a molecule known as VMAT2. It has been designated as an orphan drug and has been granted fast track status.

Hello! I've done a good bit of searching on this forums, and have found threads that touch similar subject, but don't answer the questions I have...Problem: Few of my recent batches had unpleasant bitter aftertaste. The best comparison I could think of is the smell of yeast sediment in the bucket after primary fermentation of a hoppy beer (hops ad diretly to wort, no bag). Somewhat yeasty & kinda bitter. That taste comes very soon after swallowed and I feel on the back of the tongue. I first noticed it in one batch of saison which I had dry-hopped just slightly. It was my first experience dry-hopping, and I attributed this problem to my inexperience. Recently I made another saison and rye-beer; no dry-hopping. Same issue with saison as before, and rye - same issue except multiply the unpleasant factor by 5. First taste is ok, doesn't feel as if it was contaminated, not sour, but unpleasant after swallowed. Question: I see a lot of you were addressing question about water, fermentation temperatures, mashing etc. I still have to work on my water adjustments, temperature control for fermentation and on my mashing techniques. # mashing - I'm new to all-grain, and mash in a cooler adjusting temperatures by adding increasingly warmer water (infusion method I guess?) # fermentation - keep them in basement at around 65F (+/-5), still need to build a temp controlled chamber. As far as length of time - most of the beers that are not particularly high gravity I do total of 3 weeks before kegging (either 1 week primary/ 2 secondary or 2 weeks primary / 1 secondary) # water - use tap water, and have not researched yet how, when and why should I adjust I've brewed easily easily over 20 batches since I started a year ago (all-grain only this summer, maybe 5-7 batches). Most of these processes/variables that are mentioned above have not changed. Yet 3 batches had this problem.OK, real question now Can it be my equipment that spoils the taste? I haven't replaced my plastic buckets yet. I remember hearing somewhere that they should be replaced after a while, just don't know how long.... I usually clean my buckets, carboys and kegs well with dish soap and sanitize with Star San. Could it be because I dry-hopped my IPA in the plastic bucket? (BTW - it was Two Hearted Ale clone, and turned out awesome!).Also kind of important detail I think - I tried my rye beer (first personal recipe) before kegging it, and I'm pretty sure it did not have this problem. Now it's almost undrinkable. Let me know if I need to provide some other detail about my process, but I'm really leaning more towards a problem with equipment at this point. I wish I would've kept track of of what bucket I used for what beer; maybe I could've pointed right away if bad beer comes from same bucket?! I have 2 plastic buckets, 2 glass & 2 plastic carboys, and 5 kegs.
Your problem sounds like astringency. This is can be caused by many different factors... such as oversparging, crushing grains too fine, too hot of sparge water, over hopping, bacterial infection, and even poor water quality. They way you are describing it, it kinda sounds like an acetobacter problem. I would also start by cleaning with PBW rather than dish soap. Also, try to eliminate the serving end of things. Use a new picnic tap on the same keg to see if the flavor is there.
You want to keep the grains below 170. If you are batch sparging, 170 is fine as the grains will cool it down enough. Oversparging is usually only experienced by fly spargers who try to get to much out of the grain. Once the SG of the wort gets too low the sparging can extract tannins... which lead to astringency.
Are you doing anything to filter chlorine or chloramine from your water? I am battling what sounds like a similar off flavor, and a beer judge has suggested that it might be due to my failure to get the chlorine or chloramine out of my water. This can apparently cause a bitter aftertaste that is sometimes described as astringency. I have not bottled one of my beers made with distilled water yet, so I cannot tell you if that made a huge difference, but that jumped out at me when I read about your issue.
Re: Chloramine, go to the wine additive section of your LHBS and buy a package of campden tabs. You can usually get 100 for under $3. Wine makers use them to stop fermentation, but they will also pull the chloramine out of water (you can tell by that last phrase that I did poorly in chemistry- I don't know the exact bond that they make, but they are supposed to do the trick). One tab (about the size of an aspirin tablet) is good for 20 gallons of water, so you can break them up and toss half of one in your water before heating.
As Herbie said, some campden tablets (or the potassium metabisulfite powder it's made of) work wonders for dropping out chlorine. I've been using them with great success. I think that alkalinity is also a likely culprit since I'm assuming your saisons are on the light side -- It depends on your water (get the report from your municipality!), but if you don't offset the natural alkalinity with calcium additions or lactic acid (which I've gone to recently) you can get too high of a pH and nab those tannins. In short, you'd be looking for alkalinity, comparing levels of calcium, sulfate, chloride, and magnesium, and figuring out what salts to add to get those ions in the right range and bring the pH down. This lovely spreadsheet takes you through it and can be customized for each grain bill: http://www.ezwatercalculator.com/ Best wishes!

»USS LEXINGTON Museum On The Bay
This retired aircraft carrier was once used as a training facility but is now a floating museum. Resting pleasantly on Corpus Christi Bay, this impressive ship is a sight to see from the coast. There is a free shuttle that takes you from land all the way up a long ramp to the ships hangar entrance. Aboard the ship you will be able to explore the flight deck, the control and navigation rooms and even the captain's quarters. Also on the ship is an extensive World War II and Pearl Harbor exhibit. Be sure to drop by the theater to catch some authentic military footage and exceptional documentaries. The gift shop is a must for souvenirs and military memorabilia.
»Texas State Aquarium
One of the cities main attractions, the Texas State Aquarium is a family favorite.

In this course, producer and engineer Skye Lewin reveals the techniques that professional musicians and producers use to get the best-sounding results from Melodyne. The course covers digital audio workstation (DAW) and session preparation, and shows how to perform rhythm and pitch corrections on both lead and background vocals. It includes lessons on importing and exporting tracks between the DAW and the standalone version of Melodyne, as well as utilizing Melodyne as a plug-in, through ReWire, and through Melodyne Bridge. Skye also shows how to use a MIDI keyboard to edit the pitch of a recorded performance in Melodyne and how to trigger a MIDI instrument using an audio recording.
In this song, like a lot of pop songs, we have quite a lot of lead vocal tracks, but really there's not a lot of lead vocal tracks, there's just two parts and each part has been quadded. So what we're going to do now is take a look at the second part, and using the techniques that we went over in the previous videos, we're going to edit the first of those two parts, Lead 2a and Lead 2b. So let's first unmute 2a and open that up in our Editor Window. I'm going to choose Play arrangement so we can hear the track playing behind this, as well as the other vocals that are unmuted. In this case I'm just leaving Lead 1a and 1b unmuted, since we never finished 1c or 1d, and let's have a listen.
(music playing) Cool. So we're just going to go through this and do a quick pass. I'm not going to spend a ton of time on this, because it's already pretty close to what I want. So I'm going to use our Automatic Pitch Correction approach that we looked at earlier for our first pass, but I'm only going to correct the first section of the song, I'm not going to do the whole thing yet. So maybe I'll make it a little tighter than we did before. I'm going to go back and listen to the effect of that. (music playing) And I'm going to separate a few notes out that I didn't separate before, because I actually want to keep those as separate notes, and we can go and re-center those, or in the case of notes that may be a little sharper than the center, we can just drag them down as we did before, one at a time.
(music playing) Actually I want to put that got back where it was, so I'll use the key command that I set up earlier for resetting the pitch center to original. (music playing) And all that's fine, I just want to take the breaths and S's out of there. So I'm going to go through and separate the stuff that I did not separate before. And this is why I like to do it in advance just because it's that much easier, and we can just select each one now, reset it to original with whatever key command you have set.
This will just help keep the audio a little cleaner, because we're not introducing any unnecessary changes. (music playing) Okay, I want to make that but... (music playing) ...land on the same note. (music playing) For some reason the pitch isn't detected, which happens once in a while. (music playing) You just have to move it until it sounds right.
(music playing) And get the S's and those sort of things separated out. (music playing) Tighten up pay. (music playing) Fix that. (music playing) And get this S out of there. (music playing) Cool. And now we're going to jump ahead and look at the part in the chorus.
This is the chorus B line. (music playing) I'm going to want to tighten that up a bit. So this time I'm going to go and make my separations first, I have got a ton of them. Excluding the breath that I separated, let me go ahead and just use this double-clicking technique and grab the notes that I know I want to change. (music playing) Keep that a little tighter. Grab that S that I missed, reset its pitch center.
(music playing) And maybe I'll tighten up the Pitch Modulation a little bit to make it a little bit tighter. (music playing) Cool! Now let's look at the second half of that. (music playing) And do the same thing there. Make our separations, take the T out of it, deselect. (music playing) There's a couple of melodic changes I'm going to make here actually.
I'm going to switch these notes around, and I'm going to drop this note. (music playing) See what that sounds like. (music playing) So that's actually the melody that I'm going to use there in the song. And we're going to use one of the techniques we looked at earlier, which is making this note a little bit louder with the Edit Amplitude tool. And I'm probably going to tighten up the Pitch Modulation a little bit. (music playing) And I want this a little bit tighter. (music playing) Cool. And again, since this is the chorus, and it repeats, I can just get that section that I have finished, select it, in this case I haven't separated the breath yet, so I'm going to include the breath.
I'm going to go and make a selection of what I'm pasting and paste that in there, and you can see that this section has been replaced with the corrected version. (music playing) Now let's go and make Lead 2b match what we have just done here. Well, first let's unmute 2b, and just do a quick pass again, using our Automatic Pitch Correction tool. Now that I know which separations I want to include and which things I don't want to include, it's going to be a lot faster, because I have already done this process once, so I can literally just mirror what I did the first time.
(music playing) As irritating as that sound can be, it can really help you find the center of the pitch. (music playing) So again just make my separations, the breaths out of there, and reset the pitch center on all of those. And again, if we want to tighten it up a little bit, we can make the Modulation a little bit less noticeable.
(music playing) Couple of notes I might do a little bit more on. (music playing) Cool. Moving on. (music playing) Again, I want to move that but up to the right note. (music playing) Make that can't on the right pitch as well. (music playing) And tighten up a few more things, but we're more or less there. (music playing) So there's some stuff in here we have got to correct, and just start by doing a Manual Batch Correct, by double-clicking, fix the note that I know needs to be fixed, make a few separations.
(music playing) And then just tighten it up a hair, pretty much there with this one. (music playing) And then we'll get to the chorus and do the same thing on the B line in the chorus. (music playing) I'm just going to tighten up the Modulation on these as well just like we did on the other one. (music playing) And we'll grab the second half of the chorus, and double-clicking is really the same thing as using our Correct Pitch, it's just that you have a little more control over how close to center you can get when using the Correct Pitch feature.
Let's tighten up the modulation a bit. (music playing) And we have got to change those same notes that we changed in the other part. (music playing) And I'm going to make this a little bit louder like I did before. I may actually want to use a little bit of format change on both of these notes just to change the naturalness of that sound, but it doesn't sound too altered. (music playing) Make the throat sound a little bigger since she's singing a lower note basically.
And then again, I'm going to select and copy and paste. This time I don't have to grab the breath since the breath is already separated on the second half of the repeated chorus, and we're going to copy and paste it like we did on Track 2a, so that they match, since this is literally a double of what's on 2a, and we can just double check it by listening to a snip. (music playing) Cool! So you know it's in the right place, because the timing sounds right. So now that we have gone through a couple of each of the lead vocal parts, both the A line and the B line, or Lead Vocal 1 and Lead Vocal 2. Let's take a moment to go through the rest of the lead vocal parts on your own.
So that would be finishing Lead 1c and 1d and Lead 2c and 2d, and then go through and polish the Adlibs track on your own, using the techniques that we have looked at in this chapter.

Verlander gets job done for Tigers
OAKLAND, Calif. (AP)
Already an ace and MVP, Justin Verlander proved to be the Detroit Tigers' ultimate closer, too.
Verlander struck out 11 in a four-hitter, pitching Detroit into a second straight AL championship series a day after Jose Valverde failed to hold a ninth-inning lead with a 6-0 victory over the Oakland Athletics in the decisive Game 5 of their division series Thursday night.
Verlander tossed his first career postseason shutout and complete game with a 122-pitch masterpiece.
''He had a look in his eye today,'' manager Jim Leyland said. ''A complete-game look in his eye.''
The Tigers will face either the New York Yankees or Baltimore Orioles, tied at two games apiece heading into Game 5 on Friday night in New York. Game 1 of the ALCS is scheduled for Saturday.
Verlander, the reigning AL Cy Young Award winner and MVP, was so sharp nobody in the bullpen ever got up to throw. He struck out 22 in his wins on both ends of this nail-biting series.
After squandering two chances to clinch the series, including blowing a two-run ninth-inning lead in Game 4, Leyland left it all up to Verlander just as he said he would.
''I think it's one of those things I expected to go nine innings,'' Verlander said. ''In this situation, in a Game 5, I wanted to go all the way.''
Austin Jackson hit an RBI double in the third and a run-scoring single as the Tigers added on in a four-run seventh. Prince Fielder hit an RBI single.
The Tigers are on to another ALCS despite getting just one RBI all series from Triple Crown winner Miguel Cabrera - on a bases-loaded hit by pitch, no less. Booed by the yellow towel-waving sellout crowd of 36,393 each time he stepped into the batter's box. Cabrera finished 5 for 20, and it was his hard-hit ball dropped by Coco Crisp in a 5-4 Game 2 victory Sunday that allowed two runs to score.
Leyland all but called Verlander's latest gem.
''Justin Verlander's a pretty tough chore for anybody,'' Leyland said.
The Detroit skipper gave the ball to his 17-game winner and said beforehand the Tigers would likely win or lose with the hard-throwing right-hander on the mound.
And, against the A's, Verlander usually wins.
''I don't have anybody better than him,'' Leyland said. ''And if they get to him that much we'll probably be in trouble. I'm not taking him out, I can assure you of that, because I don't have anybody better to bring in.''
Verlander became the fifth pitcher to start a winner-take-all playoff game the year after winning the Cy Young - and the first to win. In all four previous instances, that pitcher's team lost the game: Steve Carlton (1981 Phillies), David Cone (1995 Yankees), Barry Zito (2003 Athletics), and Roy Halladay (2011 Phillies).
''When you're going into pressure situations like this, there's nobody better to have on the mound than Justin,'' Jackson said.
Verlander followed up an 11-strikeout outing in Detroit's 3-1 Game 1 win Saturday at Comerica Park with another overpowering performance in his 10th postseason start. He improved to 3-0 with a 2.11 ERA in three postseason starts against the A's and also upped his career mark to 5-4 with 2.15 ERA in 10 starts at the Coliseum.
Verlander had allowed one earned run with a 0.69 ERA in beating the A's twice during the regular season.
''He's always tough. You go out there and you battle him the best that you can,'' Crisp said. ''Today he had some of his best stuff of the year.''
Detroit finally got to party in a visiting clubhouse that for the sixth straight game was prepped for a possible clinch celebration.
The Texas Rangers were in town last week needing one victory to win the AL West but dropped all three to lose the division to the surprising A's in Game No. 162.
On Wednesday night, plastic covering the floor and lockers was torn down in all of about 40 seconds after Valverde allowed three runs in the bottom of the ninth as Oakland won with another walkoff in a season full of them.
After Seth Smith grounded out to end the game, the A's stayed on the field to greet the fans who were still on their feet chanting ''Let's Go Oakland!'' Verlander waved toward the Oakland players in a classy acknowledgment.
Detroit's offense did more than enough to give Verlander a cushion on another relatively quiet night by Cabrera and Fielder, the team's $214 million cleanup hitter.
Cabrera went five straight games without an RBI on four different occasions during the regular season, but didn't extend that to the playoffs when Ryan Cook plunked him with the bases loaded in the seventh.
Oakland's miscues on the mound only helped matters.
Omar Infante singled to start the third inning against A's starter Jarrod Parker, then moved to second on a wild pitch. Then, with Cabrera batting after Jackson's double and a sacrifice by Quintin Berry that moved him up a base, Parker threw another wild pitch that allowed Jackson to score.
The upstart A's were attempting to become the ninth team to rally from a 2-0 deficit in a best-of-five series, but couldn't match the cross-bay Giants after San Francisco won at Cincinnati earlier in the day to reach the NLCS.
So much for all that chatter about another Bay Bridge World Series in Northern California like the earthquake-interrupted Series in 1989 swept by the A's.
Oakland struck out 50 times in a series of swings and misses riding high only a week ago after stunning the two-time reigning AL champion Rangers on the regular season's final day to win the AL West. The Ks were the most in A's franchise history for a five-game series.
Josh Reddick, who hit a team-leading 32 homers, struck out 10 times for the most by an A's player in a postseason series.
The A's payroll of $59.5 million is lowest in the majors. But the last game was the only lopsided one.
Detroit eliminated Oakland again after the Tigers pulled off a four-game sweep in the 2006 AL championship series - the last postseason appearance by the A's.
''We didn't think it was going to end today, not for a second,'' A's manager Bob Melvin said. ''We knew we were going up against a good pitcher. That didn't mean we didn't think we were going to win. We've gone up against good pitchers this year. And it's a bit of a shock when it finally does end. It was a heck of a story. It was a heck of a run for us.''
The Tigers now look to get through another round after falling in six games to the Rangers in last year's ALCS.
Leyland won this one the hard way.
In 1997 with this same playoff format - featuring the higher seed opening on the road for the first two games - Leyland's Florida Marlins won the first two games at home then completed a three-game sweep of the NL division series against the favored San Francisco Giants at Candlestick Park on the way to a World Series title. That is Leyland's lone championship in 21 years as a manager.
The Tigers' three stolen bases matched the team record in postseason game, done so for the first time since Oct. 5, 1984, against Kansas City.
NOTES: The only person with more Ks than Reddick in a division was Seattle's Bret Boone with 11 in 2001. ... The A's have lost eight of their last nine postseason series. ... Cabrera has reached base safely in all 16 of his postseason games with the Tigers. ... Verlander is Detroit's all-time postseason leader in strikeouts (70) and wins (5). ... MC Hammer, former A's bat boy and club executive, threw out the ceremonial first pitch.

My husband and I have sampled many pizza places in the area, and this tops my man's list of the best pizza nearby.

Out of the blue visit- immediately greeted and welcomed-felt great and the good was authentically great--Tigo
The quest for the perfect pie (outside the Tri-State Area) went next to Sal's. My wife passes every day on the way to kiddo's school, so we decided to try (out convenience and hope for good place). We did not dine in, but when I picked up the pie, there were lots of people and the décor was very "Italian".... More

With that said, it is a comfortable, friendly place that serves great, authentic New York style Pizza, Calzones,ect. We have eaten in but we usually do takeout because of our busy schedules. I love the spinach calzones and their meatballs and... More
