Plant perfection
bahia(SF Bay Area)April 21, 2012
Ordinarily I am not a huge fan of hybridized plants over natural species, but must admit there are some hybridizers that hit homeruns with their work; be it intentionally hybridized or a happy accident of pollination. This Agave 'Blue Glow' is a great example, and apparently there are now dozens in bloom down at the Los Angeles Country Arboretum if you care to see one in person. This is just a young plant in a container on my back deck, looking beautiful without a whole lot of care...

DBM Core
- DBM can't always accurately skip cinematics for you if you are on any of the timeless isle visions of time quests. This is because blizzards CINEMATIC_START api lacks movieIDs to properly tell quest scene from annoying raid scenes you've seen 100x
- DBM may skip second cinematic in Auchindoun even if it's first time reaching that point. This is because there is no distinction in CINEMATIC_START event on movieID within api to allow us to know one movie from another within the SAME zone, so dbm thinks the second movie is same as first movie and skips it.
- Lua error if a battle.net friend engages a "World Boss" that isn't in encounter journal (such as one of garrison bosses). (Fixed in r13442)
- DBM will have an incorrect combat resurrection timer if you underman Mythic difficulty. (Fixed in r13447)

- Blackhand yell options for marked for death and slag bombs don't stay off and ignore user selection because they reset to on every pull. (fixed in r13440)
- Firestorm warning on Flamebender will show ended warning when it begins, since I moved wrong warning in code improvement by mistake. This causes ended warning at start and no ended warning at end. (Fixed in r13445)
- Still a bug with slag bomb yells on mythic not working correctly (Fixed in 13479)
- Timer for 3rd slag elemental is missing on blast furnace (Fixed in 13480)

Do you know if the hotel is pager friendly?
I am a social worker at a hospital and I love my job, I have always wanted to work with kids and am grateful I get to spend everyday doing what I love. My family is very important to me and I have great parents and 4 siblings. I'm a Colorado native and my family all lives here so I am lucky enough to get to see them frequently. I also have two dogs who are super sweet and a big part of my life. I often take them on hikes and to the park. I am an avid reader, but also love movies, and have a few TV shows I am hooked on, like Scandal, New Girl, and Homeland. Game nights with friends are one of my most favorite activities, but I can be competitive so watch out :) I do yoga almost every day, and find it to be both a great way to stay in shape and relieve stress. I am a HUGE Broncos fan and rarely miss a game! I love to ski in the winter and hike in the summer, and right now I am training for a 10K. I was married for a very brief time, but found out quickly after the marriage that he was not right for me (I'm happy to fill you in when we meet). However I think this has helped me in my journey for love because I am very clear on what I am looking for now. I am looking for someone who is very driven and ambitious. Someone who loves dogs and spending time with friends and family. Someone who likes to be busy and active, and obviously a football fan so we can watch on Sundays!
Book club , Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Watching sports
Skiing, Swimming, Walking / Hiking, Yoga
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
I have Dogs
The Broncos, Yoga, Games (Pictionary, Cranium, Catch Phrase anything with a group of friends really), the book Gone Girl and the book My Sisters Keeper, Of Monster's and Men, Zac Brown Band, The Lumineers.
I am currently reading The Best Kept Secret... and have a list of about 6 more I plan to get to soon!

Circulon Hard Anodized?
jwats612July 1, 2010
This is about to go on sale at Costco
Does anyone know if the interior is coated with PFOA or simply an anodized coating
Believe it or not, their website does not mention this line
Any experiences with Circulon in general or advice is welcome
The set on the Costco site says it uses the Circulon Total nonstick system. This is made by DuPont which also makes Teflon. See the link below for more information.
I am looking for non-Teflon frying pans that can be used to stir fry on med-high heat. Anything from DuPont is off the list, I am afraid. Even though they don't call it Teflon I think it is. If anyone knows otherwise please let me know.
Here is a link that might be useful: Total nonstick

Happy weekend!
I have a 2D georeferenced raster data (with a data type of "unsigned char") array. I want to use it as data source to do reprojection by using GDAL/OGR library. In "GDAL Warp API Tutorial" web page ( http://www.gdal.org/warptut.html), all samples seem to begin with opening a raster file supported by GDAL/OGR. How can I set up a relation between "GDALDataset" and my 2D array without saving my 2D array to a file and opening it again?
Thank you very much!

Batista as Drax
Since the Marvel Cinematic Universe has grown to become so big, there is a very good chance that we will see Batista portraying Drax outside of the Guardians of the Galaxy film series. Rumors coming out of Hollywood have him in negotiations with the studios to make a possible appearance in the third series of the Avengers movie. Some are even stating that he might make a brief cameo in the second one this summer.
March 22, 2015
Melina and Batista
Some rumors will never die, it seems. As the latest guest of Jim Ross on his podcast show, Melina was asked to address the issue once again. She stated that she was in a relationship with John Morrison for approximately eleven years. It was revealed that the two of them broke up because of rumors that she had cheated on Morrison with Batista, whom she stated was merely a friend backstage who stood up for her when others ridiculed her.
March 13, 2015
Shad Gaspard AutoZone commercial
While his foray into Hollywood is not going anywhere near as fast as the paths taken by Batista and The Rock, Shad Gaspard is getting some love from the entertainment industry. In addition to playing some minor roles in lesser known movies, the former WWE star can be currently seen in AutoZone commercials. In it, he plays a professional wrestler. He and his tag team partner show up to take on two regular guys.
March 2, 2015
WWE best spears
Batista in Highlander movie
The rumors have now been confirmed. Batista has been officially cast for the new Highlander movie being made. He will star as a character named The Kurgan. The former WWE star is actually the first person on the cast to be officially confirmed. No word yet on when the film will start shooting, but the 46 year old is currently doing the latest James Bond movie. With that busy of a schedule, do not expect to see another return to wrestling yet.
February 21, 2015
Batista return to WWE
When it comes to Batista, the majority of people in the industry have ruled out his potential return to WWE. Management, though, still has faith that he will do another comeback down the road. When he left last year, he left the door open and has never publicly stated that he was done with wrestling. With his star power in Hollywood growing more and more by the day, management feels that money spent on him would be well worth it.
February 14, 2015
Batista in Highlander
A new Highlander movie is being made, and a former WWE star might be cast in a big role. Reports have surfaced that Batista is one of the candidates to portray The Kurgan. Producers are looking for someone that is strong and physically imposing. The former world heavyweight champion fits the bill, and since he found a good amount of success with Guardians of the Galaxy, he will more than likely always be a candidate for these roles.
February 12, 2015
Batista contract
Since he has been starring in blockbuster films like Guardians of the Galaxy and globetrotting as a promoter, a lot of fans are under the assumption that Batista no longer has any ties to WWE. He apparently still has contractual ties to the company. The former world heavyweight champion is reportedly still under contract to the promotion. However, management is not forcing the issue because they like that he is building his name value.
February 6, 2015
Batista return
While the company would love for him to come back now that his marketing value as at an all time high, there have been very little discussions backstage in WWE about the potential return of Batista. A big reason for that is because he has four movies coming out there year, and he is currently busy filming two of the bigger ones as we speak. The former world heavyweight champion is also going to be busy promoting the new James Bond movie.
January 23, 2015
Batista backing Titus O'Neil
While he is no longer with WWE and has no plans to return anytime soon, Batista still has loyalty towards friends who are still in the industry. Through social media, he posted an article that wondered why Titus O'Neil was not being given more of a chance by management. The former world heavyweight champion had been campaigning for a good period of time for O'Neil to get a big push. He's not as vocal, but he still wants to see it happen.

... electives, so we got on the 630am train and were to the mountain by 9am and caught the gondola right at the bottom of the mountain by 930am. This mountain was huge - many connected resorts that we couldn't even hit them all in one day, but it was awesome! Much more groomed then Engelberg, so conditions were a bit better and of course snowed in the afternoon, so we had some fresh pow pow! We had lunch at a great spot on the mountain - of course ...

... a free souvenir magnet after our tasting!
On our way back to the train station, we stopped by Mirabell Palace and gardens. The gardens were intricately detailed with patterns among the florals. I enjoyed admiring the statues that lined the garden and picturing scenes from the Sound of Music, which had certain scenes filmed here. We boarded the train back to Munich to ensure we arrived with plenty of time to grab a bite to eat and board our sleeper train for our next stop...

... br> We were allowed in the church which was an interesting place to be in. So cold and stone everywhere. A huge alter and there were crypts inside as well. Next stop the fountain outside the Residenz building which was adorned with Nazi flags. A large square, lined with horse drawn carriages. Past the statue of Mozart and onto the bridge over the river where they frolicked singing do-re-mi. Next stop Mirabell gardens the main fountain they sang at. The gardens ...
A fine place to spend Mother's Day!
(Lisa)~Observations.... It seems like all the shops and restaurants (except for the German guys playing the accordian & guitar) play American music.. We still must stand out in some ways; while we were at Neuschwanstein castle, a short Asian lady wanted to have her photo taken with Emily.
Today we slept in a bit. The kids wished me Happy Mother's day and gave me a few gifts they've picked up along the way. We walked through Mirabellgarten and ...

Hydrogen sulfide is a chemical compound with the molecular formula H2S. H2S is a colorless toxic gas with an extreme rotten egg odor. Humans can normally detect the odor of the compound at 0.0047 ppm. A single breath at 1000 ppm is lethal. The need to control or remove hydrogen sulfide to safe levels is necessary in all types of industries and applications, but is particularly necessary for the hydrocarbon processing industry. In addition to the safety concerns for plant personnel and operators, H2S removal is required for corrosion control due to the highly corrosive of the compound to pipelines, equipment and downstream processes.
Hydrogen sulfide removal technologies or processes can be classified according to mass of H2S to be removed per day (lbs of H2S per day). As a general rule, H2S removal up to 1,000 lbs per day should consider the use of a fixed bed type scavenger/adsorbent media. A requirement that exceeds this rate of H2S per day would need to consider other processes.
Chemical Products' SULFURTRAP® would be categorized as a fixed bed H2S scavenger. H2S Scavenger can be futher classified as either (1) liquid scavenger or (2) fixed bed scavenger. Both types are treatment options for low temperautre H2S removal from sour hydrocarbon. Liquid H2S scavengers have been used for many years for low-pressure, low-sulfur gas wells. Today, liquid scavenger is being replaced by fixed bed H2S removal media due to the many advantages they present over their liquid scavenger counterparts.
Liquid scavenger is typically supplied in drums or totes, and work by pumping the scavenger liquid directly into the sour gas pipeline. When the liquid scavenger runs out, the empty drum must be replaced with fresh chemical. One of the disadvantages of the chemical is the high treating cost. Operating costs (OPEX) can run as much as 10 times or more than fixed-bed scavengers. The reason the cost difference is so great is that H2S concentrations and gas flow rates fluctuate, but the liquid scavenger pump is normally pre-set to treat the maximum expected H2S concentration. When H2S levels drop, or flow rate decreases, the pump continues pumping the same amount of liquid. This overuse of chemical leads to much higher chemicalo cost. Liquid scavenger is hazardous and difficult to safely dispose. Lastly, liquid scavenger being used for H2S removal have also been proven to form solids that deposit in pipelines, valves and tanks leading to additional costs and headaches for downstream processors.
Conversely, fixed bed hydrogen sulfide removal systems such as SULFURTRAP® offer lower treating costs and form zero by-products or side reactions. A clean, simple process for selective H2S removal. Fixed bed hydrogen sulfide removal media works by passing the sour gas stream through a fixed bed of solid media in a vertical vessel. Fixed bed systems such as SULFURTRAP® can handle fluctuations in flow rate and H2S concentration with no change in performance or the need to "add" chemical, thus lowering operating costs when compared to liquid scavenger.
Fixed bed H2S removal systems are also capable of handling much larger volumes of H2S per day than liquid scavenger systems. Liquid scavenger can typically only treat up to 55 lbs H2S per day where fixed bed media, such as SULFURTRAP™ can economically handle up to 0.5 ton per day.
The choice between these two classes of hydrogen sulfide removal types may seem clear, but are all fixed bed H2S removal technologies alike?
Yes and no.
Many fixed bed products on the market only work in anaerobic, water saturated gas environments and can be extremely difficult to remove from the treating equipment. Spent media caking and agglomeration of certain products can not only lead to an increase in pressure drop, but also pose safety concerns to operators and plant personnel with regard to diffulty of media changeout/replacement. In these instances, potentially dangerous methods to loosen or break the caked, spent material out of the equipment must be employed. Thus leading to more downtime and higher replacment costs.
A solution is finally available…
SULFURTRAP® by Chemical Products Industries, Inc. is the next generation in fixed bed H2S removal technology. SULFURTRAP® easily removes H2S to <1 ppm, is capable of high sulfur loading capacity and is free-flowing in its used form. Finally,a product that performs as expected, and is both safe and easy to replace.
Call us today for assistance with the design of your next hydrogen sulfide removal project, or for information concerning the replacement of your current H2S scavenger system.

Self-harm is on the increase and a recent survey by the mental health charity 'Sane' has suggested that self-harm isn't just a problem for teenage girls.
The survey questioned around 1,000 people who had a self-harm history and 10% of respondents were male.
Researchers believe that boys are more likely to conceal their self-harm with the most common methods being: cutting, scratching, burning, bruising and overdosing.
And self-harm isn't exclusively teenagers, many people who took part in the survey said they continued to self-harm into their fifties. Over half of all respondents had been harming for over five years with a quarter for a minimum of 11 years.
Self-harm appears to take place on a daily basis for around 200 people on the survey and for 300 respondents on a weekly bases.
Self-harm has been seen as a way to seek attention but this latest survey suggests self-harm is generally hidden from family and friends for fear of the impact it will have on loved ones. Just one person in eight claimed that they self-harm so others will take notice and care.
This is backed up by the areas of the body in which self-harm is carried out. Many people choose places that can be easily hidden. Of those surveyed, the common areas to self harm came out as arms (83%), legs (50%) and stomach (19%).
Self-harm, while not a precursor to suicide, was for many a way of alleviating suicidal thoughts. Sane found that many people who had been admitted to A&E for self-harm injuries were sent home with no follow-up care.
As figures for self-harm increase (up by a third in five years), professional care should be sought to treat the underlying causes. Alternative medicine and complementary therapy methods can help people who self-harm.

Nick Harding had seen enough of life's darker side...and bore the scars--inside and out--to prove it. Plus, years of tracking reprobates had hardly improved his opinion of his fellow man.
Yet some spark of hope remained in him, he suspected. Why else would he have agreed to settle down in Thunder Canyon as a sheriff whose man job was seeing that the saloons remained respectable?
But the quiet life proved elusive whenever he and Lily Divine crossed paths, for the feisty owner of The Shady Lady seemed hell-bent on stepping out a woman's "proper" place...and into his wounded heart!

Pitchfork offered three very different unofficial CMJ showcases this past weekend, starting Friday night with a 10-band event at the Brooklyn warehouse Villain. It featured Death Grips, DIIV, Joey Bada$$, Merchandise, Metz, Daughn Gibson, Le1f, Hundred Waters, Holy Other, and Angel Haze. The venue was at capacity all night, ending with an explosive 43-minute set by Death Grips.

CMJ 2012: Unicorn Kid
By Larry Fitzmaurice on October 20, 2012 at 12:13 p.m. EDT
Photos by Ben Sklar
Oliver Sabin, the 20-year-old Edinburgh producer known as Unicorn Kid, is a boy wonder who is hard to pin down. At 17, he was making elongated, jittery 8-bit tunes that could be both novel and grating; that year, he also remixed the Pet Shop Boys, and then he took that sound closer and closer towards the drop-centric bass music that eventually came to be called EDM. Last year, he returned with new tricks-- a partially shaved head, dyed hair, and a predilection for dolphins, ying-yangs, and seapunk; his own hyperactively dreamy take on fast-paced rave culture as evidenced in 2011's excellent EP Tidal Rave. He opened for Owl City that year, too.
CMJ 2012: Miguel
By Carrie Battan on October 20, 2012 at 11:26 a.m. EDT

I've always thought Miguel to be something of an unconvincing Casanova; he's at his best when he's being glib, as in: "Do you like drugs? Me too… I wanna do you like drugs tonight." But it seems I'm in the minority. "He's sooo cute", a woman next to me shrieked as he kicked off his self-explanatory "Pussy Is Mine". "Is it? Is it mine?", he asked, provoking the approving cheers of his female fans. Still, he's so confident live that it ultimately doesn't matter much if it's sincerity or schtick. He's nothing if not an extraordinarily savvy ham, the kid grinning front-and-center in all the family photos. Everything about his set last night was highly stylized, from the orchestrated removal of his dark glasses and exaggerated gyrations to the band's stadium-ready riffs.
CMJ 2012: Icona Pop
By Carrie Battan on October 19, 2012 at 12:35 p.m. EDT
Photos by Ben Sklar
For the Icona Pop novice, their live show is an excellent starting point. The duo's act is deceptively simple: They stand onstage beside one another in high-fashion, all-black getups, blasting the room with anthemic electro pop while a gorgeously staged set of lights beam colors across the room that you can almost reach out and grab. It's crisp and clean and elegantly executed, and likely the result of months of tweaking and careful consideration. And yet this pair of women act like they've never toiled a second in their lives, as though they were shouting lines of inspiration and queuing up electrifying dubstep drops from the womb.

Twenty-year-old Sky Ferreira is one of very few artists to play CMJ after releasing a handful of big-budget, major-label pop singles. CMJ is not so sturdy of a launching pad nowadays, but it might be a comfortable place to get a fresh start, to test the waters of a newfound artistic identity. Sporting a lot of leather and a tangled nest of straw-blonde hair, Ferreira offered a sampler of her latest incarnation, which is a much looser, more natural fit.
CMJ 2012: Joey Bada$$ / Pro Era

The name of this showcase at the Manhattan hip-hop stop SOB's was "Remember When Rappers Could Rap?", a title that evokes nostalgia on a purely visceral level. A quick scan of the lineup-- self-anointed Southern cross-bearer Big K.R.I.T., pie-eyed weed rappers Cashius Green and Smoke DZA, D.C. upstart Fat Trel, Flatbush wünderkind Joey Bada$$ and his post-pubescent Pro Era crew-- tells you all you need to know about the sphere of hip-hop that the showcase intended to zero in on. (If you required any further hint, consider that the headliner and perpetually wound-licking major-label artist K.R.I.T. named his Def Jam debut Live From the Underground).
CMJ 2012: Buke and Gase
By Jayson Greene on October 18, 2012 at 4:19 p.m. EDT

The experimental indie duo Buke and Gase take their name from the instruments they play: Arone Dyer plays a modified "bass" ukulele, sings, and plays a foot-manipulated tambourine (a "toe-bourine," of course) and Aron Sanchez, who plays a modified guitar-bass. The potential for Dr. Doolittle whimsy in their setup is suffocatingly high, but is nowhere to be found in their music, which resembles Tyondai Braxton-era Battles if they were subway buskers. Dyer sang in a tangy voice along with her own "buke" leads, while Sanchez's "gase" churned out a heavy, queasy low end. The music, a cock-eyed mix of art music and straightforward indie rock impulses, hopped around on crabbed feet and mesmerized everyone in the room.

The forced consolidation of two sizable CMJ showcases-- which, in this case, created a bill overstuffed with rap acts tailored to the online crowd-- would usually imply mayhem. But maybe mayhem is a thing of the past at CMJ. Go to 285 Kent's graffiti- and smoke-soiled space on most non-CMJ weekends and you'll probably find something much rowdier than last night's event, at which the performers and crowd seemed to loll together for hours on end.
CMJ 2012: Death Grips
By Jayson Greene on October 18, 2012 at 1:00 p.m. EDT
Photos by Erez Avissar
Few bands have had as eventful a year as Death Grips. Here's the Sacramento punk-rap outfit's 2012, in thumbnail sketch: 1) Sign to Epic Records after L.A. Reid compares your blitzkrieg, scavenger-punk cave howlings to Whitney Houston. 2) Release The Money Store, an improvised explosive device of a record that doubles down on your already confrontational aesthetic. 3) Schedule tour. Immediately cancel tour to widespread bewilderment, disappear back into the studio. 4) Reappear just as suddenly, leaking the fruits of your studio efforts to your Twitter followers allegedly without your label's blessing. Oh, and make your "album art" a grainy .jpeg of an engorged male member with the album's title scrawled in Sharpie marker. 5) Take to Twitter when the label allegedly shuts down your website. Their on-time appearance last night, at an industry showcase event put on by NPR, may be the most conventional thing they've done yet.

This is an exciting time for East London. The regeneration of the Stratford area will prove one of the lasting Olympic legacies. Tech City, the cluster of digital and technology start-ups around the Old Street Roundabout, has mushroomed to 3,200 companies employing 48,000 people according to a new Centre for London report.

There is a lot that London and the UK can offer. London in particular is the mothership of global finance. The media industry is based here along with government and great universities and business schools. Also, English is the native language of the technology industry, so the UK has the advantage over other countries.

The role for government should be to create the conditions which make the best and most creative people want to stay in or come to the UK.
