Juicy Lucy's: burgers, hot dogs and more
In the summer of 2014, Juicy Lucy's opened up where Willie's Barbecue used to be. The first time I went here was for some takeaway North Carolina barbecue. Three weeks later, I brought a friend here where we both had some hot dogs. The service was speedy and attentive. The decor wasn't over the top. There are several tellies throughout the place, meaning it will have something of a sport bar feel especially when American football season gets going.
Favorite Dish: When I went there for takeaway barbecue, I found the barbecue great when it had the sauce, but a truly outstanding North Carolina barbecue should be able to stand on its own without any extra help. The toasted buns were the thing that made it stand out to the point of being the saving grace. Three weeks later, I had the Chicago style hot dog. For those from Roxboro, that means relish, mustard, onions, tomatoes, and sport (slightly spicy) peppers with celery seed. Critics of this style of hot dog (mainly purists with nothing better to do) call it "dragging the dog through the garden". I have a point of reference with which to compare it...Sonic, right up the road. The hot dog itself is better here at Juicy Lucy's, but the quality of the toppings is better down the street. The fries are definitely better down the street. These here had some sort of crust on them and they needed malt vinegar to take away the weird taste. Small quibbles aside, I'm keen on this place enough to go back again and bring a friend when they're not in the mood for my favourite Mexican restaurant a few miles down the road.

Sapori Italian & Latin Cuisine: a new restaurant with an identity crisis
From the outside, and even on the inside, Sapori seemed to me like a really classy restaurant. Like I always do, I test out restaurants like these at lunch time. If it's bad I'm not out much. The decor looked more Oriental than Latin or Italian. That is a curious combination that is not really congruent. The service was prompt and spot-on.
Favorite Dish: I really liked the complimentary bread and dipping sauce. The bread was so good, it actually didn't need the sauce. I ordered chicken arepas. Arepas are grilled cornmeal cakes onto which you can put almost any kind of food. If it was just chicken and maybe lettuce, tomato, and cotija cheese, that would be all right. It didn't say on the menu that there would be a creamy mayonnaisey sauce on it. So, I had the empanadas instead. I've had empanadas in Ecuador. They invented them in the Andes region, so I know how they are supposed to taste. The exterior was a crispy critter (evidently fried way too long) and the beef was drier than British humor. I am familiar with arepas and they don't usually come with a bizarre sauce and I know empanadas aren't supposed to be crunchy. I think Sapori loses the good flavours of the food they are trying to serve in an attempt to put it upmarket. Me, I like exotic food, but I like it unfooled around with. I'll order something else to get a better handle on this place, but it gets a substandard rating for right now.

The Patron: one of the better Mexican restaurants
I was surprised one evening to find Nacho Mama's gone from its Mechanicsville location. Instead of slinking off to La Casita, I tried this place without expecting too much given the track record with newer restaurants around here. With very few exceptions, Mexican restaurants in this area have been hit or miss. However, in a lot of ways, The Patron is BETTER than its predecessor. For one thing, Nacho Mama's had the vibe more of its flagship location in Carytown than, say, Cancún. The wait staff consisted of native Mexicans and the background music was Mexican.
Favorite Dish: I had the pork carnitas with rice, refried beans, and flour tortillas. They were good enough to give me pico de gallo on the side even though it wasn't included. Most noticeable of all, the portion sizes were big enough to make me consider reaching for the takeaway box. Nine times on ten, restaurant changes around here go from a Cadillac to mule. This time, it went from a Cadillac to a Rolls-Royce.

Tokyo Hibachi Grill: not the best Chinese Buffet, but better
There have been several incarnations of Chinese buffets at this location across the 5 years since CVS moved cattywampus across the street. The previous one had to be the WORST Chinese buffet at which I have ever eaten. For example, they seem to let the food languish under the heated lights. The egg rolls were like logs. You almost need beaver teeth to chew through them. After a string of bad luck with Chinese buffets, you'd think the landlords would be on the lookout for a different type of restaurant. The food is prepared here at least by people who know what they're doing. I have never been to a really outstanding Chinese buffet, but at least this one's not bad. Restaurants occupying this slot don't tend to last long.

Zheng Chinese Restaurant: new Chinese restaurant in town
Zheng is the last Chinese restaurant...listed in the Mechanicsville phone directory. For a tenant at a shopping centre, they pay special attention to decor. It's tasteful, but not overdone. The waitress was friendly, helpful, and attentive. It's open 7 days a week: Monday-Thursday 11am-10pm; Friday-Saturday 11am-10:30pm; Sunday 12 noon-10pm.
Favorite Dish: Being a new restaurant in town, I always try a standard feature on the menu. I started with a spring roll and that was good- served fresh from the fryer. The sweet and sour chicken, however, was breaded way too much. That really ruined it for me. Having said that, I'm willing to go back and see if they can do better with another offering.
Carolyn's Fountain @ Westbury Pharmacy: drug store lunch counter
The drug store lunch counter is getting to be as scarce as hen's teeth. Mechanicsville is blessed by two of them: Mechanicsville Drug Store and Westbury. It is on the Mechanicsville Turnpike Bypass at a shopping centre anchored by the flea market and Dollar General store. Some of these lunch counters only have seating at the counter, but there are tables and even booths. Also, the menu is more extensive than many of the remaining counters.
Favorite Dish: I had chicken tenders with a double order of fries with barbecue sauce on the side. The chicken was good, but the fries need to be seasoned a little more.

Riverbound Cafe: Before you go to the river
Aptly named the Riverbound Cafe, it is located on Route 360 East (the main thoroughfare between Richmond and various river holiday spots) at Creighton Crossing Shopping Centre, just east of downtown Mechanicsville, Virginia. The hours are: Monday to Saturday (7am-9pm); Sunday (8am-2pm). The restaurant has a pleasant and welcoming atmosphere with prompt and attentive service.
Favorite Dish: Riverbound Cafe offers all manner of appetizers, salads, sandwiches, and American-style entrees. Other than their breakfast menu, they really don't offer anything much I like. Making the best of it, I always order from the breakfast menu. I prefer the western omelet (onions, peppers, ham, and cheese). All omelets come with either breakfast potatoes (read: home fries) or grits and your choice of bread. Also, I like their Caribbean salad with jerk chicken. It is just the right combination of sweet and heat.

Marty's Grill: A new neighbourhood eatery
I first heard of the opening of Marty's Grill on facebook when friends who lived in that area became fans of it. Before I committed myself to becoming a fan, I had to taste the food. In late March, 2010, I finally got around to try this place that had only been open a couple months. Even though it was a tenant at the new Rutland Commons Shopping Centre at the intersection of Atlee Road and Chamberlayne Avenue (Route 301), it had the feel of a friendly neighbourhood eatery. Despite the economy at the time, there was a fair to middling crowd there even on a Monday night. The wait staff was prompt and friendly. The place also has a biting sense of humour as exemplified by the third photo.
Favorite Dish: I had the grilled chicken curry, which seemed sophisticated for a neighbourhood eatery in Mechanicsville, Virginia. It came with a steamed vegetable medley that included broccoli, baby carrots, and yellow squash and a choice between soup and salad (I had the salad). I'm not keen on vegetable medleys (at any place) because they need so much help to even taste adequate. The salad was good except they were stingy on the tomatoes (they probably had to be given that winter weather hit much of the American tomato crop that year). The chicken was tender, the portions were more than adequate, and the curry sauce was good, but there was so much over it it overpowered the rice and was well on the way to overpowering the chicken too. If you look at the second picture, you'll barely be able to make out the chicken underneath all that sauce. It almost looks unsightly on the plate. Don't get me wrong, the sauce tasted good, but there was way too much of it in this dish. I would be willing to go back here again, but I think I might order something different next time.

Gyros Plus: Mediterranean in Mechanicsville
This is a small new restaurant at the shopping centre across the parking lot from the Kroger next to Blockbuster Video where Coffee, Fudge and Nuts used to be. It is run by a couple (the husband is an American and the wife is Iranian). Of course they offer gyros, but they also have shwarma, hummus, tabouli, dolmades, pita crisps, and baklava for dessert. I'm glad we have something besides fast food or meat-and-potatoes American restaurants in Mechanicsville. As small as the restaurant is, they offer dine in and takeaway.
Favorite Dish: The first time I went, I had the gyro sandwich and dolmades. Because this is a family-owned place, they custom make each gyro. As many well know, I'm not keen on tzatziki (that Greek yogurt sauce) or any white sauce. They gladly left it off even though many think tzatziki is an essential ingredient. The dolmades were as good as those served at the Greek Festival at the Orthodox Church.

Arizona Joe's: Formerly Dublin's Irish Pub
Arizona Joe's is a fairly new establishment in the area taking over for Dublin's Irish Pub. It is at the Mechanicsville Shopping Centre at the intersection of the Mechanicsville Turnpike bypass and Shady Grove Road next to the Dollar General Store. Unlike its predecessor, its atmosphere and menu does not keep to its name. It seems to me Arizona Joe's is first and foremost a bar, dart room, and pool hall and the food seems to be something of an afterthought. I personally had a fair to middling experience here, but my Mama wasn't keen on it at all.
Favorite Dish: I had the flat iron steak with fries and baked beans. It was cooked to order (extra medium). The beans were a little dry and not as sweet as I'm used to. However, the fries were great and plentiful. I noticed the dinner menu was limited, to say the least, with exactly 4 selections. There was a wider range of appetisers and hamburgers, but the entree menu needs to offer more. Furthermore, it would have been nice if there were more of a Southwestern theme to the existing selections which the name implies. My mama's bad experience began with her margarita. It was mostly ice cubes and maybe a thimbleful of tequila. And they charged her $6 for the pittance. The fish she ordered was substandard in that the coating between the fried breading and the meat was gooey. Normally, I rate on my own experiences, but I can't ignore such an egregious difference as this. Because we were the only ones there to eat at the time, maybe there will be a better incarnation in this location fairly soon.

Sports Page Bar & Grille: Eating...well, it depends...in the neighbourhood
The Sports Page has the look and feel of a neighbourhood sport bar. The TVs are more ubiquitous in that there are small sets at every booth. The service is fast and friendly.
Favorite Dish: I had the chicken tenders plain with mustard sauce (you can have them Buffalo style with blue cheese sauce) which came with fries. The chicken, the sauce, and the fries were pretty good. Normally, I rate restaurants solely based on my own experience. However, the cooks undercooked my friend's hamburger and it could have got him sick. It was much more undercooked than ground beef should be. In fact, it looked as if it was waved over the heat.

Parkway Restaurant: worth the wait
Parkway Restaurant is a combination American and German restaurant. As of April, 2009, it was the only German restaurant in the Richmond area. It is located at the Cold Harbor Shopping Centre at the corner of Cold Harbor Road and Stonewall Parkway. The atmosphere is that of a cozy American restaurant, but there is quite a variety of German things on the menu. One bothersome thing was that in order to get to the no smoking section, you had to pass through the smoking section. Also, the seats were hard and uncomfortable: there were no booths. The service was as slow as molasses; it took a good while for the waitress to even take our order. Once she did, it took 50 minutes for us to be served. I could have understood that if the restaurant were full up. There was a group of 12 in the next room, but others around us (some who arrived later than we did) got their food first. We must have gotten lost in the shuffle. The waitress was so apologetic and gave us a free dessert to take home. To Parkway's credit, they tried to rectify their mistake.
Favorite Dish: Although this is the only restaurant with German food on the menu in the Richmond area, the chicken livers were on special that evening. The two sides I ordered were fries and collard greens. The chicken livers were fried perfectly, but they got the onions a little too crisp. However, the fries, the greens, and the homemade rolls were served hot and the portions were abundant.

Giovanni's: palatable Italian food along 301
Giovanni's is an Italian restaurant at the Hanover Commons Shopping Centre at the corner of Chamberlayne Road (Route 301) and Shady Grove Road. The restaurant is divided into two parts: a traditional dining room and a pickup lobby for takeaway pizzas. They don't go overboard, like some Italian restaurants do, on the decor. The service is friendly and attentive, but not in your face.
Favorite Dish: I had the penne pasta and meat sauce and the chicken parmagiana. In both cases, the pasta was perfectly cooked, but the sauce was a little sweet and it drowned out the flavour of the pasta. The Greek salad is a ripoff because 90% of it is iceberg lettuce with only a little bit of the good stuff. Sadly, the feta cheese cannot be counted as the good stuff...bloody awful! The garlic bread, however, is first rate. The good news is Giovanni's is the best restaurant at Hanover Commons. The bad news is its competitor happens to be Don Pedro 2, which happens to be the worst Mexican restaurant in the metro area.

Cold Harbor Restaurant: a fine place for breakfast and lunch
The Cold Harbor restaurant is where the Hanover County Republican committee sometimes meets. One reason is that they are happy to accomodate our numbers which could be huge depending on the speaker, but mostly, their breakfast is VERY good. The hostess and wait staff display the kind of hospitality for which the South is noted.
Favorite Dish: Some folks are keen on salt herring because they know how to cook it properly and they are consistent. I never acquired a taste for salty fish at breakfast, actually. So, I went with the buffet. The selection was standard breakfast fare for the Southern United States: eggs, bacon, sausage, grits, and biscuits. It's not anything really to write home about, but it gets you going in the morning.

Carter's Pigpen Bar-b-Que: Come gitcha some (early)
Carter's Pigpen Bar-b-Que opened in the autumn of 2008. My first go of this new place was when they were open less than a couple of weeks. We got there about 45 minutes before closing time, but the ran out of nearly all of their side dishes (except for beans and corn muffin). They were fixing to run out of pork when we placed our order. I guess when a restaurant is new, it's hard for them to gauge how much food to make each day. Business is apparently good because they had to turn away prospective customers before posted closing time. It is in an old house in old town Mechanicsville near the intersection of Cold Harbor Road and Mechanicsville Turnpike. Even though it has been converted into a restaurant, the lobby where you place your order and the small dining area (in two separate rooms) are a reminder that this was once a home. If the seats are all filled they will gladly do takeaway.
Favorite Dish: I had the Carter's combo which consists of vinegar based eastern barbecue on a bun with baked beans and corn muffins. The barbecue and beans were really good, but the portions were smaller than usual because they had to stretch the last bit of pork.

Back in February, Google Now was rolled out to desktop Chrome Beta browser users, but now, it's being shipped to everyone. With Google Now on your desktop, users have access to the same exact cards as they do on their mobile devices, including flights, shipping notices, sports scores, and so much more. (more…)
Google Update Bonanza: Maps, Translate, YouTube, Chromecast, Search, and Chrome Beta
Google is still going strong with their trademark "Update Wednesdays," and this week is absolutely no exception. We already saw the Wallet update and the possibly erroneous YouTube update, but now have a plethora of other fresh meat, most being relatively minor. Regardless, it's definitely a good thing to see Google paying attention and squashing those bugs, adding nifty new features along the way.
All the updated apps are listed down below. We'll be updating this post as we learn more. (more…)
Flag in Chrome Beta 34 for Android Brings Chromecast Support
Google is all about service integration. First, we saw Google+ being integrated into everything that they owned. Next up was Google Now, something that Google is still working on integrating into not only phones, but desktops and Chromebooks. In an unsurprising move, it seems now that Google is giving Chromecast the same love, and trying to work Cast into every device that they can touch. The latest Chrome Beta build for Android is the latest to have been visited by the streaming media fairy. (more…)
Chrome for Android Update Fixes Continuous Sign-in Bug
Chrome for Android is receiving an update today that rids the app of an incredibly obnoxious bug that would ask users to sign-in over and over again. The bug did not affect everyone or every device, but I was one of those who it constantly tortured while testing out the Xperia Z1 Compact. As you can imagine, I went from thinking it was a Google sign-in issue to blaming the device, since no other devices were experiencing the problem. I now know that it wasn't any of that.
And this is me doing a little dance. I may be singing too. (more…)
Chrome for Android Scores Update to Version 33, Performance and UI Improvements To Be Had
Yup, it most definitely is an app day over at Mountain View. We now have seen Google+ updated along with the introduction of the Google Now Launcher, but Google hasn't stopped yet — behold, Chrome 33. The improvements are relatively minor for this update, but are nevertheless good to see.
Google Now Hits Chrome Beta for Desktop Computers
Google's Chrome team announced the availability of Google Now for Chrome Beta users on desktops this morning. Google Now is a helpful app that brings important information you care about right to your attention without you having to ask for it. For example, you can keep an eye on upcoming flight plans, daily commute traffic, and even track shipments making its way to your house. Google Now has been an Android user's best friend since launch, and now, it's available for Chrome desktop users. (more…)
Google Bringing Chrome Apps to the Mobile World Through Google Play and iOS App Store
For as long as Chrome has been around, Google treats its browser like its own ecosystem. Chrome Apps are a big part of that, but Google does not want those awesome apps to be tied only to your desktop or browser. Today, Google announced that they are opening up a program to developers that will allow them to bring their Chrome Apps to Google Play and iOS. (more…)
Google Now Comes to the Desktop in Chrome Canary for Windows and Mac
As the text on the infamous Ron Paul animation proclaims, it's happening. (I just preempted you, commenters, so there's really no need to post that GIF.) Since the debut of Google Now with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, users have been clamoring for a desktop extension of the service. It took a year and a half, but Google Now has finally come to Windows and Mac users as an experimental feature in the Canary version of Chrome. (more…)

Originally written on The Awesome Boston | Last updated 11/10/14
A.B. Meet the newest member of the New England Patriots, Aqib Talib. The 20th overall pick in the 2008 NFL draft can definitely get his groove on but can he stay out of trouble? Here's a look at some of his troubled past: July 2008 – fistfight with Buc's teammate Cory Boyd. August 2009 – battered a Florida taxi driver and was arrested for simple battery. March 2011 – aggravated assault with a deadly weapon against his sister's boyfriend in Texas. Charges were dropped in 2012. Good luck to Bill Belichick with this guy. He can certainly "Dougie" but can he "Covey"? Let's hope so.

I bought 4 for my boat. Haven't used them yet, so I cannot comment on durability. About the performance, my opinion is not that different from the others. Low frequencies definitely don't go to 45Hz. It's more like 150Hz. I'm considering adding a sub, which wasn't in my original plans. Power wise, they are good up to 20W RMS, which is about what I expected (I hope no person with technical background believes the fairy tale called 400W).
Overall, OK speakers for the price. You have to spend 10 times more to get something 2 times better.

""When I made the film The Invention of Lying, they gave me a private jet for getting back and forth between New York and London. I thought, 'I will never use it' but I ended up using it every weekend. You turn up, right, and the airport is completely empty. I mean, there's just someone at the desk and then the pilot, who says, 'Are you ready to go?' and you say, 'Don't you want to see my passport?' and he goes, 'Oh yeah, I suppose I'd better.'" "
Adam Aircraft Sells Very Light Jets in China
Business Jet Traveler » August 2007

Adam Aircraft may have taken the first very light jet order from the People's Republic of China. The Denver-based manufacturer announced receipt of a firm order for 50 AdamJet A700 twin-boom VLJs from Hainan Zhong Hang Tai General Aviation Airlines, the China-based operating entity of Ameritech Aerospace.
The acquisition, according to Adam Aircraft, is part of the Chinese company's strategy of capitalizing on the country's fast-growing general aviation market with a fractional-share program and air-taxi operation. Adam expects the A700 to receive FAA certification in early 2008.

If you are looking for value without giving up cleanliness, then this is the place for you. We stay here every year for the Fossil Festival and it is in a central location so you can easily get to other attractions or the beach for a day trip without paying crazy rates at the beach.

Bermuda, bummuda
I HATE THIS STUFF! I haven't done Ornamec recommended here. I've tried Round-up and it came back up bigger. It laughs at weed barrier. Just spent 6 hours lifting pavers and pulling the rhizones or whatever they are. Any fold in the fabric, it grew like a cable!! It grew over, through, in between the weed barrier.
I do this twice a year, and still can't stay ahead of the devil spawn weed. It's right next to my organic vegetable garden. And spreading.
I think I just needed to vent...
I know this sounds crazy.......I live in louisiana, and the only thing ive ever noticed that actually kills it is to burn it with heavy doses of quick release nitrogen fert!? I think its takes it up to quick and it eats it from the inside out? After the initial burn i hit once more and then it just decentigrates!
IT is the devil!!!!! not its spawn, but the devil himself, the spawn is that forsaken cocoagrass!
No, barriers don't stop it. I covered an area with heavy cardboard and put 3" of mulch over that. Within a years time it had grown through the cardboard. I was amazed when I finally pulled the decaying cardboard up to find 3' long white runners.
Round-up does work but you'll need to use a surfactant with it. You may need to spray it twice. I did it on a hot day and I had to go back and spot kill. I do a section of the yard every year. I'd like to do it all at once but I have nearly an acre and it's a lot of work. DH isn't much help in this area. He does work in the garden tho...if he wants to eat:)
I have a large vegetable garden that I try to keep as organic as possible. I tilled the garden plus a 4'area beyond the garden border. I raked all the runners I could find. I waited, watched and pulled any new plants over the summer. In the fall, I cardboarded the garden and built lasagna beds laying 3-4" of shredded hardwood on the pathways. I waited for 10 months to plant while holding my breathe. It's been 5 years and I've yet to see bermuda in the vegetable garden.
I'm getting there.
My Bermuda is in my lawn, but our frustration is the same. What really worked for me last summer was the ingredient Fluazifop (left my normal grass alone!). It was in GreenLight's Bermundagrass Killer (no longer available ), but is also in Ornamec and Grass-B-Gone(Ortho). Currently, I'm trying Monterey Turflon Ester (active ingredient: Triclopyr) -- not sure of results yet.
As other postings warn, Bermuda laughs at most weed killers, unless it is a total herbicide, which also kills your desirable plants, so you have to be careful and look for specific chemicals.
This year I found a product called Turflon Ester, which the folks at the local garden center told me could be used to control bermuda grass without harming the fescue or other wanted plants. They didn't seem to have a lot of conviction that it would help ("It might..."), but I decided to try it anyway.
I sprayed a test area that had a mixture of bermuda, fescue, and a few weeds. I didn't notice anything for a few days, but when I mowed the lawn 3 days later, I noticed the bermuda was a little browned where it had been cut. Then another 3 days later, I noticed the fescue was growing back (as you would expect), but the bermuda wasn't. The bermuda that was adjacent to my test area was still green and continuing to grow, just like the fescue in the test area.
It's now been a little over two weeks, and the established fescue in the test area is making a comeback. The bermuda has completely stopped growing and spreading. The Turflon Ester has also removed all the weeds from the treated area, including some bindweed that was there. Impressive!
It will probably take another couple of years of regular treatments and re-seeding, but this isn't nearly as difficult as I thought it would be.

We are pleased to present below all posts tagged with 'jQuery'.
There comes a point in every website design when you simply want to give the website a little spice to impress the visitor and make it memorable. You want that sexy interaction to capture the user's attention. In our previous articles, we showed you how to spice up your website with sexy buttons, practical elements and attractive visual effects.
In this article, we'll discuss how to seduce your visitors with a little JavaScript action. In our examples, we'll be using jQuery, a fast and concise JavaScript library that simplifies HTML document traversing, event handling, animation and Ajax interactions for rapid Web development. Ready? Let's get things rolling!Read more...
In this article, we'll go through how to make your own bookmarklets, using the jQuery JavaScript framework.Read more...
Over the last year, Smashing Magazine has evolved. We've been publishing fewer lists and more in-depth articles about design and Web development. We have invited professionals and high-profile developers to write for us. We've been investing more resources in the quality and relevance of our articles. We've also explored new formats; and on weekends we've been publishing more inspirational pieces, leaving the in-depth articles to weekdays.
We've tried our best to fuel the growing appetite of our readers for more advanced articles, but recently we've been receiving more requests for carefully selected, useful round-ups. We are not big fans of lists either, but the format is useful and — if the resources are relevant — can be extremely helpful. Therefore, we've decided to add a couple of round-ups per month as a bonus to our regular articles. Instead of replacing the main articles, we will add round-ups on top of our regular schedule. If you don't like round-ups or find them inappropriate, please feel free to skip them. How does this work for you?
In this post, we present 40 useful but obscure jQuery plug-ins that will hopefully help you improve the user experience on your websites. We look forward to your ideas and suggestions in the comments to this post.Read more...
Yes, this is another round-up of fresh and useful Javascript techniques, tools and resources. But don't close the tab yet, as you might find this one very useful. In this selection we present calendars, forms, buttons, navigation, debugging, optimization and compatibility tables as well as handy resources and tools. We also cover various jQuery-plugins that will help you extend the functionality of your website and improve user experience with ready components or coding solutions.
The last section also covers a number of useful educational resources such as a compilation of useful JavaScript coding practices, a detailed comparison of JavaScript frameworks and general JavaScript programming conventions. We are looking forward to your feedback.
You may be interested in the following related posts:
The simplicity, advanced features and strong support are common arguments for developers preferring jQuery against other JavaScript-frameworks. In fact, jQuery is one of the most popular JavaScript frameworks, with powerful tools that can significantly improve the user's interaction with Web applications. jQuery has an additional advantage in that it allows developers to select elements on a page using CSS-like syntax.
To help you improve your skills, in this article we present 50 useful new jQuery techniques and tutorials that have been created recently and that could make the development of your next website an easier and more interesting experience than the last.Read more...
JavaScript is an integral part of the RIA revolution. JavaScript allows developers to create rich and interactive web interfaces and establish asynchronous communication with servers for constantly up-to-date data without a page refresh.
Many things that were once accomplished using Flash objects can now be built using JavaScript - with the added benefit that it is free, typically more web and mobile accessible under most circumstances using best practices for development techniques, and without the need to use proprietary software for development.
Though JavaScript has been around for a while, new tools, techniques, and information are constantly being pumped out to continually push the technology into greater heights. In this article, we wish to share with you a huge list of fresh and new tools and resources that JavaScript developers will find useful and informative.
Here are a few other posts that you might find interesting:Read more...
We like to experiment with new ideas and concepts. We like to challenge ourselves and provide our readers with new formats. This post is the first in our "Ask Smashing Magazine" series, in which well-known developers from the web design community answer our readers' questions and suggest solutions to common problems.
Today, we are glad to welcome Chris Coyier, who you may know from his articles on CSS-Tricks, to our Smashing Magazine Editorial Team. From now on, Chris will regularly answer your CSS- and jQuery-related questions and present answers to the most interesting, useful and original ones in his articles on Smashing Magazine. Welcome, Chris!
Of course, you can send any CSS- and jQuery-related question you want. To ask a question, you can do any of the following:
Please note: Chris will do what he can to answer most questions, but he will certainly not be able to answer all of them. However, we hope that our forum may help you to solve your problem in case Chris couldn't help you out.Read more...

The supply slump that's fueling the best run for municipal debt since 2009 is poised to end next year as governments ramp up borrowing for long-delayed projects from water to transportation, Citigroup Inc. predicts.
George Friedlander , a municipal bond strategist, has rejoined Citigroup Inc., where he worked for the bank and its predecessors for more than three decades.
Citigroup Inc. lowered its estimate of U.S. municipal bond issuance this year to $240 billion from $275 billion a month ago, in part because fiscal austerity is leading local governments to borrow less.
"There's not a doubt in my mind that you will see a spate of municipal-bond defaults," the banking analyst Meredith Whitney , nodding her head, said on a Dec. 19 segment of CBS Corp.'s "60 Minutes."
Morgan Stanley Smith Barney fired George Friedlander , a municipal bond strategist for more than three decades, as it integrates two formerly separate firms, according to a person familiar with the matter.
Municipalities are set to extend the biggest wave of taxable bond sales since 2010 as issuers favor the unrestrained use of proceeds and target buyers beyond U.S. borders.
Issuance in the $3.7 trillion U.S. municipal market may fall to $280 billion in 2014, the lowest since 2011, said George Friedlander, chief municipal strategist at Citigroup Inc.
Fort Worth, Texas, avoided voters when it sold $86 million of bonds last year to finance a police and fire facility. An El Paso hospital system plans new clinics using $162 million of debt taxpayers won't have a say on.
"There's a lot of pent-up need for infrastructure."
- George Friedlander on Jun 19, 2014

The Space
Hey you! If you're looking for a single room, right in the centre of the city, simple but cozy and practical, in a big terrace appartment, this ad is just for you!
I have a free single room located just 5 minutes away from the famous Ramblas! We are in the Raval district, one of the most emblematic area of the city, at just 2 minutes from the Rambla del Raval, Macba Museun and Universitat, key point of Barcelona thanks to its connection with the airport and its proximity to Plaza Catalunya. The famous Sant Antoni Market is just next to the apartment (3 minutes walking) or La Boqueria market (4 minutes walking). Here you can find Sant Antoni underground station (L2, purple line, 2 stops away from Passeig de Gracia or 8 minutes from La Sagrada Familia) and a lot of bars, restaurants, bakeries, pharmacies, everything you might need during your stay.
The room is small but very luminous, perfect for short stays and low budgets. You will find a single bed with a latex mattres, a night table and a a cabinet for you to store your luggage.
A fan and an electric stove are at your disposal depending on the time fo the year. Also you will have free wifi internet connection.The room gets into the small laundry room so you can use the washing machine whenever you want!
The apartment is very bright, quiet and welcoming. It is located at top floor of a building with a lift.
I share this apartment with my boyfriend and our pets: 2 cats and one nice dog. The common spaces are: the spacious living room, (with a sofa, a TV, a dvd player, an HI-FI), the sunny veranda (with a table with chairs), the fully equipped kitchen (with fridge, freezer, microwave, juicer, toaster etc) and the toilet (with a shower/bath)
Come and enjoy the advantages of living in the heart of Barcelona whilst feeling like home, in a quiet apartment with a big terrace! We will be more than happy to give you tips about the city and where to eat, hang out, have fun.. come and visit us!
PLEASE NOTE: in the apartment there are pets (2 cats and one dog). It is not allowed to smoke inside the room. But you can smoke in the terrace.
Ilaria and Gianluca are very nice hosts, were relaxed and friendly from the very begging. Communication with them is smooth and easy. Location is great. Apartment and room are absolutely as said in listing.
If you're looking for a single room, right in the centre of the city, simple but cozy and practical this is it!
Gracias Ilaria and Gianluka, good luck with new venture and looking forward to see you in BCN :)
Ila and Gianluca are great hosts! The house is in very good location! In fact it's my first experience of airbnb, But they made me feel like home. Ila told me many good places to go, and all turned out perfect! Ila, I loved so much the live bar u told me, it's awesome! And Pimpa the dog, the cats Sophia & Cheerios are so friendly, and so cute! I loved my stay at Ila & Gianluca's!!Highly Recommend!
Salio todo perfecto en mi primer experiencia con airbnb. La habitación es igual a la foto. Gianluca y Llaria son muy amables y agradables. Muchas gracias por todo.
Ilaria and Gianluca were wonderful hosts. The flat was cosy and comfortable. I'd stay there again if I'm back in Barcelona.
I enjoyed my stay with Ilaria and Gianluca so much! They're prob my best Airbnb experience so far. Super welcoming, considerate and friendly. They have lovely dog and cats too, as welcoming as the hosts. The location is center to the city, making it super easy to get around if you're there touring. You would feel home staying with them. I am so glad that i made the decision. :D Thanks Ilaria and Gianluca! Happy new year.
I had a wonderful time in Barcelona in Ilaria's and Gianluca's Penthouse. They are great hosts, very friendly and lovely. The Penthouse is very cosy and central. Metro stations are nearby, but it is also a nice walk to the Rambla and the Ciutat Vella. In the neighbourhood you can find small food stores, bars, restaurants. It is a very interesting, lively and colourful barrio, more enjoyable than the overcrowded Rambla and Ciutat Vella area. So if you prefer to see the more typical life of Barcelona away from the crowds of tourists, then that's the place for you to stay. And if you like animals, you will enjoy the company of the hosts' lovely and friendly dog and the pretty cats. If I ever travel again to Barcelona, I definitely will stay with them again. Thank you Ilaria and Gianluca!
Hello everybody! we are an Italian couple living in Barcelona for almost 6 years! We are in our 30s and live with our beautiful dog named Pimpa and 2 adorable cats, Cheerios and Sophie. We live in an attic right in the centre of Barcelona and we love this beautiful city.
Gianluca works in the human resources field while Ilaria works in an Italian restaurant as a cooker.
In our little spare time (we work a lot!!!) if we stay at home we like to watch movies, listen to the music and cooking! If we go out we love to meet our friends for lunch, visiting museums or go to some concerts. We also love nature and whenever we can we take a break from the city and go camping.

Currently in the US, there are roughly 1,600 walk-in medical clinics that reside in drugstores and supermarkets such as CVS, Walgreens, and Target. This number is projected to double within three years due to higher demands of newly insured patients under the Affordable Care Act. Walk-in medical clinics are so popular because no appointment is necessary, they accept a wide range of insurance, and they are open seven days a week, including evening hours. The services at the walk-in clinics are... Read More

After six long years of ongoing and rather public negotiations, US Soccer Federation President Sunil Gulati announced that the USMNT has hired former German internatioal player and head coach Juergen Klinsmann just twenty-four hours after dismissing Bob Bradley.
While I am not suprised at Bradley's replacement or the timing, I am suprised at how quietly the USSF (mainly Gulati) accomplished this switch. Just after the 2010 World Cup in South Africa, it was reported that the USSF was courting Klinsmann to replace Bradley and for the second time Klinsmann spurned the USA and Gulati had to settle for Bradley. And I do mean, he had to settle for Bradley, make no mistake, Gulati has always made it clear that he wanted Klinsmann as the USMNT head coach. I just wish that fact was not made public after the 2010 WC because it undermined Bradley for the rest of his tenure. There was a decent group of USA fans who never liked Bradley's tactics, formations, his son playing center mid and always thought of him as a second rate coach and that came straight from the top of the USSF with Gulati. If you make a hire seem second rate, that's how he will be judged.
I would like to take the next paragraph to that Bob Bradley for his tenure and overall success as the USMNT coach. He took the USA back to the knockout stages of the World Cup after a dismal campaign in 2006 that ended Bruce Arena's tenure. He won the 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup that qualified the USA for the 2009 Confederations Cup. In that tournament the USA defeated #1 ranked Spain 2-0 in the semifinals and earned the USA their first major FIFA men's competition final. He topped CONCACAF qualifying for the 2010 World Cup and took the USA back to the finals of the Gold Cup in 2011, their fourth straight appearance in the final.
But Bob Bradley will not be remembered for any of that. He will be remembered for his 3-2 loss to Brazil in the 2009 Confederations Cup Final and his final match, a 4-2 loss to Mexico in the 2011 Gold Cup final where in both games the USA held 2-0 leads but failed to hold on to their leads. He will be remembered for for continually putting out players that couldn't succeed at the international level, despite using over 100 players during his tenure as coach. He will be remembered for losing to Mexico 5-0 in the 2009 Gold Cup final with a "B" squad after his "A" team almost won the Confederations Cup just days before. Bob Bradley will be remembered as the man couldn't get the USA over top instead of the coach who repeatedly showed to the rest of the world that the USA could compete with anyone in the world. If you talk to fans from around the world, they'll ask why Bradley isn't a rock star in the USA for succeeding in a sport that most people in America only care about every four years.
I have never had any issues with Bob Bradley as head coach of the USMNT. Was I always happy with his team's preformances or roster selections, no, but Bradley never heard the criticism from the media or the fans. He just put his head down and worked, forcing the USSF and Gulati to remove his interm tag as coach for the 2010 World Cup cycle. But at the end of the day, the USA in the international soccer realm is supposed to accomplish the following things - Get to the Gold Cup Final, usually vs. Mexico, qualify for the World Cup and get out of the group stages. That's about it, that's where the USA is on the international soccer stage. And anyone who thinks the USA is better than that is delusional.
Think I'm crazy? Okay, 2002 World Cup - USA loses to Poland in the final group match but thanks to a South Korea's defeat of Portugal, the USA backdoored into the knockout stages, defeating Mexico in the first round before bowing out 1-0 against Germany in controversial fashion. 2006 World Cup - disaster. 2007 CONCACAF Gold Cup - defeated Panama in penalties for title. 2010 World Cup - Defeated Algeria 1-0 on 89th minute goal to advance to knockout stages. That doesn't scream international powerhouse to me. But again, there are people who think the USA is supposed to just go out and beat the world at their game. Reality check everyone, the USA is not that great at soccer. Sure, Donovan, Dempsey, Howard and others are good, but they're going up against squads of world class players at the World Cup. Remember that in CONCACAF, it the USA and Mexico are 1 and 2 and nobody cares who is third because they suck.
But now, all that anger that I never directed toward Bradley is going straight for Sunil Gulati. I've never really liked him all that much, nor how he treated Bob Bradley at the professional level and now he has his golden coach in Klinsmann. Klinsmann and Gulati were never able to settle Klinsmann's control of the youth systems and player development and who knows which side won that battle. But if Klinsmann won, I'm going to expect, no I'm going to demand results from other US teams at the U-17, U-20 and U-23/Olympic levels. And then, I'm going to expect the USA to start making the quarterfinals of the World Cup and churning out professional players that will start dominating the UEFA Champions Leauge. Because I never expected to the USA to do more than they were qualified to do.
Now, that changes. Because Bob Bradley set a rather high bar for the USMNT. Now Klinsmann has to meet that bar at all levels of US Soccer. Otherwise, I'm going to demans that the USSF cleans house.
And I hope that never happens. I hope Klinsmann (who's coaching record is not that long) brings the USA to new unreached levels of success. But if they don't, I hope the USSF finds Sunil Gulati's replacement while he's still in office.
So he can get a taste of his own medicine.

Raiders not keeping Tom Cable
ALAMEDA, Calif. -- The Oakland Raiders informed coach Tom Cable on Tuesday that they will not bring him back as coach next season even though he led them to their best record in eight years this season.
The Raiders announced their decision not to exercise a two-year, $5 million option on Cable's contract for 2011 and '12, two days after wrapping up an 8-8 season that gave Oakland its first non-losing record since winning the 2002 AFC championship.
More From ESPN.com
Firing Tom Cable -- after actual progress -- makes no sense, writes ESPN.com's Bill Williamson. But what else is new in the land of dysfunction? Blog
• Williamson: Jackson the only choice
• Blog network:
AFC West | NFL Nation
"Coach Cable was informed the club would not be exercising its option for the 2011 season, and that he's free to seek employment elsewhere," his agent, Don Yee, said in an e-mail to The Associated Press. "Teams already have shown interest in Tom."
Punter Shane Lechler ripped the move in comments to Bay Area media Tuesday, saying it was a "huge setback" for the Raiders.
"It's hard to understand how or why the decision was made when it seemed it was in the best interest of players and we finally felt like we were headed in the right way, and the owner goes and pulls the [plug]," Lechler said, according to the Oakland Tribune.
The Raiders now begin their search for their sixth coach since Jon Gruden left for Tampa Bay following the 2001 season. Cable lasted longer than any of the previous five, with a 17-27 record since being promoted from offensive line coach to interim head coach early in the 2008 season after Lane Kiffin was fired.
Cable had wide support from his players, who credited him with helping make the team a contender in the AFC West this season after a run of seven straight years of at least 11 losses.
But that was not enough to persuade owner Al Davis to bring him back for a third full season. The Raiders could have waited two weeks to make this decision but acted quickly.
The move comes the same day the Raiders granted the San Francisco 49ers permission to interview offensive coordinator Hue Jackson for their vacant head coaching job. Jackson will interview with the 49ers on Wednesday, a league source told ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter.
Not Good Enough?
Believe it or not, Tom Cable's departure is not the first time a Raiders coach has left following a season of .500 or better.
Did Not Return Next Season
|Tom Cable
|Jon Gruden
|Art Shell
|John Madden
|John Rauch
|Al Davis

Davis brought Jackson in after last season to take over the play-calling duties from Cable. Led by a breakout season from running back Darren McFadden and big plays from rookie receiver Jacoby Ford, the Raiders finished sixth in the league in scoring with 410 points. That was the sixth-most points scored in a season in franchise history and more than doubled last year's scoring output.
Jackson will likely be a leading contender for the job. Raiders senior executive John Herrera says the team has not talked to any candidates yet.
The Raiders also could have interest in Stanford coach Jim Harbaugh, who was their quarterbacks coach in 2002 and 2003 and is close with Davis. Harbaugh also is being sought by the 49ers, among other NFL teams.
Cable has had a tenuous hold on the job ever since getting it when Kiffin was fired four games into the 2008 season. The Raiders took a month after that season before deciding to give Cable a two-year contract and then left the coach in limbo for weeks after last season.
The 2009 season was marred by an investigation into whether he assaulted assistant Randy Hanson and allegations of a history of violence toward women.
The Raiders made big strides to improve under Cable but fell short of making the postseason for an eighth straight season. Oakland became the first team since the 1970 merger to win all of its division games and not make the playoffs.
The Raiders went just 2-8 outside the AFC West this season, with five of those losses coming to teams with losing records.
This season was marked by indecision at quarterback. The Raiders acquired Jason Campbell in the offseason from Washington to replace draft bust JaMarcus Russell. Davis compared Campbell in training camp to two-time Super Bowl winner Jim Plunkett, but Campbell was benched after just six quarters.
Campbell got the job back when Bruce Gradkowski injured his shoulder and eventually won three straight games to put the Raiders in first place in November. But he was benched again after a blowout loss at Pittsburgh.
The Raiders lost the following week at home to Miami when Gradkowski re-injured his shoulder. Campbell started the final four games.

Richard Pryor and the World That Made Him
From the critics
Community Activity
CommentAdd a Comment
kind of a strange book. This biography quotes RP's own autobiography! Other times lines are quoted directly from one of his 1971 stand up comedy routines. (I saw it on youtube!) It's a sad story - horrible childhood growing up in an actual whorehouse. As an adult he was a brilliant comedian but constantly using drugs. The way he treated women was horrible (beating them constantly and abandoning them as soon as they got pregnant). Then he got MS and died. Also I found the racism to be so strange. I never knew that things were so bad as recently as the 1970s and 1980s. This book also contains a tonne of swearing and sexual language.
After the first few chapters of Richard Pryor's life story, the rest of his story makes perfect sense. There is a lot of tragedy, way more than there was ever any comedy in his life; one wonders how he found the ability to laugh at anything, actually. This book is a more intense read than I thought it would be; more interesting, maybe, to sociologists rather than to people who were Pryor fans or people looking to follow Pryor's footsteps (I am sure no one would want to, even if they could.) A sad, confusing story about a sad and confused man.

... at our hostel with the party Serbs. Tina, the hostel owner and her husband were super nice to us and even gave us a Christmas gift of rakija. We kind of get extra respect for the travel we're doing at our age and for staying at the occasional hostels.

BL #26: Pretend to Be Eurotrash
Belgrade doesn't have much to offer to travelers, at least, not in a conventional sense - you don't come here for the sights, or to bask in the city's beauty. Quite frankly, Belgrade is downright ugly in most places, a product of its sad history - the city has been destroyed and rebuilt something like 40 times, and there are still many battle scars and bombed-out buildings from the conflicts of the 90s. Let's also not forget that ...
Slowest train ever
... stuff off then went out in search of some food! There were a heap of signs pointing in all directions to McDonalds which we would have been happy to have at this hour and of course use some wifi to sort out accommodation for tomorrow..After walking around in circles for awhile we decided their signs are all wrong and settled for a burger from a small shop on the street. It did the job. Walked home and climbed into bed :)

Additionally, there are no food carts on Balkan trains, a fact I was not aware of at the time. However, they sell beer, which was not much help. So when the train pulled into Zagreb, I decided to get off so I could get some dinner as I was hungry. Since I was in Croatia, I figured I should at least spend ...

My Vidéotron rebate is ending soon and I am shopping around for a new service. Now I have both services with Vidéotron.
Ahem, TSI may want to take note this time that speeds for videotron are increasing again.
Right now we're focused on fixing the wait times and really amping up the whole experience of dealing with us. The wait times in particular are crushing us right now. We have a new office we're opening up in Gatineau. This will also help with our French support.
nooo, why must it be in Gatineau and not in Quebec City?I would have applied right away =S
Hehe.. We actually already had an office in Ottawa so we're moving across the river and expanding our space. Funny thing, our current office is in the Chateau Laurier.. They put up office space up there and we were one of the first in.
