Sago Palms Yellowing Soil Type?
At the front of my neighborhood, we have 5 of the worst looking sago palms I have ever seen. Mine in the backyard are not looking too good either and are yellowing too. Can anyone tell me if they have green sagos growing now in the heat of the summer, what they were planted in, how much they get watered (days and gallons per week approx.) and how much they were fertilized? Does anyone use any special fertilizer to make up for the "soil" we have to use here. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Welcome Nevada gardeners! In south Georgia and north Florida, where they are common, some of the best looking sagos grow in shifting shade. Also, you're dealing with some chronically alkaline soil & sagos like it a bit on the acid side. Regular water in well-drained soil.
I was thinking Sagos needed more acidic soil--probably ironite would do the trick nicely. They probably also want more shade in our brutal sun. I grew one in a pot a couple years ago, and it did fine until it got winter-killed. I was seeing just how far I could push my climate zone limits. It doesn't reach to Sago palms, that's for sure!

I was in the height of my Nintendo fanboy-ism when I wrote this after another lame day of high school. Back then, Nintendo 64 was the scrappy underdog against the PlayStation revolution with Rare as its loyal sidekick. Rareware, as it was known, was in its prime making spectacular games (from Donkey Kong Country to Goldeneye to Perfect Dark).
Banjo-Kazooie was really awesome and pushed the platforming genre a bit. Donkey Kong 64 was just competent but bloated with "stuff." (I liked the arcade game inclusion, though.) DK64's a solid 7.0-8.0-rated game, but no mind-blowing masterpiece. It played a little too much like good ol' B-K.
For some reason I've long forgotten, I tried to start a Nintendo fansite. I lack the enthusiasm and money to do that, but here are my thoughts on what Rare should do after the release of Donkey Kong 64. At that point, I started to become jaded of derivative gameplay. Oh, well. At least Nintendo is still the super-niche we know and love. … Continued »

Prediction: What will the fair market value be of Kid Rock's $20 tickets?Submitted by Michael Nystrom on Tue, 04/30/2013 - 02:58
Kid "I'm f--king embarrassed to be a Republican" Rock is putting on a $20 nationwide tour. All seats, all venues, just $20.
After supporting Mitt Romney during the general election, here's a choice quote about the party itself:
"That's one of the times I'm f--king embarrassed to be a Republican," Rock said. "It's f--king Republican lawmakers passing those laws, you dumbasses. They already did it in New York and they're trying to do it in Michigan. I've even called some of those guys to try and stop it."
I predict that the $20 tickets will adjust to market rates, and we'll hear stories of outrages prices being asked, and what a scandal it will be.
Sugarman came to the Somerville Theater, and scalped tickets were going for over $1,000 per pop.
But the article also says that Kid Rock is
also putting up tickets on sites like StubHub in an effort to combat scalping. Rock, who said that all musicians "have huge f--king egos," cited overpriced ticketing on tours by artists like The Rolling Stones as a big problem for the music industry: "The Rolling Stones are charging $650 per ticket! That just makes me speechless. I love the Stones, but I won't be attending."
Let's see if we hear on any Kid Rock tickets in the mid triple digits.
How much do concert tickets go for these days? Maybe our resident music expert jrd380 will know.
So here's a project. Track the market price of Kid Rock's ticket prices when he comes to your town. Look for them on Craigslist, and call up the scalpers and strike up a conversation - friendly. People talk to friendly people (trust me). Try to see what he's doing: Is he a fan? What does he think of the promotion? Why would you want to sell above $20 if Kid Rock doesn't want you to? etc.
Report back with insights.
Graph the true market. Calculate the market cap of the concert, and watch it change, if the values of the tickets behave the same way as the value of stocks.
Since each ticket is created equal - $20 - they are, in effect, all the same -- at least from a financial point of view. If they are all the same, it means that if someone buys a scalped ticket for $600, then suddenly all of the tickets are worth $600.
Calculate how much money Kid Rock "lost" by not charging as much as he humanly possibly could have.
Ponder - where did that money that Kid Rock "lost" - try to figure out, where did it "go?"
Analyze - What was the true intent of stunt? Is it goodwill? Or clever marketing. Pretty clever I'd say.
Explain - I don't know much about Kid Rock, his music, his audience, except he sang for Mitt Romney and him and Sean Penn did that corny skit. Good intentioned, or marketing? Both, really.
There are no clear lines - everything is blurry, because we're in that transition phase - from dark to light, or light to dark, depending on what your own persuasion is. Everything eventually becomes its opposite.
- - - rambling - - - -
What do you guys think of the Kid Rock project?
Here's what I think: People think this $20 ticket idea is great. Cheap tickets! What they don't realize is that there is still a cost to that "cheap." It just comes out in other ways. And the market always finds equilibrium. And there is a journey of discovery to be had. Some learning is going to take place here. This is about to challenge what some people believe, and shake them up.
On the other hand, here's an article that reads like a press release for Live Nation:
It is a pretty advanced, and long term marketing strategy:
"You know, $20 is the kind of ticket price where you don't really have to plan six months in advance to budget for it," Bongiovanni said. "It can be more of a spur of the moment purchase. And the fact they are having the $4 beers means it's not going to cost you a fortune to go out and enjoy yourself."
He's playing to the down & out. People that don't save, and don't plan ahead. Yo - ho! And wait! As if that weren't enough, $4 beers! He's looking to the future:
"I think Kid Rock plans to be around for a while and is probably hoping to be touring five years from now and still making a good living," Bongiovanni said.

People will pay whatever they
People will pay whatever they think they are worth. If someone is going to pay several hundred for a ticket, they obviously think its worth it.
To climb the mountain, you must believe you can.
i don't care what you think about
the man or his music. pricing tickets at $20 is being good to your fans.
so i tip my hat to him.
well Sir McCartney, i'd still love to see you once, ball is in your court.

I'm not sure what the market value is for Kid Rock tickets.
But my own subjective valuation would be around -$100.00, as in you would have to pay me around $100.00 in order to get me to attend one of his shows.
I like his change of mind on Republican politics, but I still can't stand his music.

Rolling Stones had to lower prices to fill the venue.
"With the group's "50 and Counting" tour kicking off in Los Angeles on May 3, pairs of $600 floor seats were still available yesterday for Staples Center arena, based on the sales website of Anschutz Entertainment Group Inc., the Staples owner and promoter of the Rolling Stones tour.
"To anyone not working in investment banking, these are extremely expensive tickets," said Gary Bongiovanni, editor-in- chief of Pollstar, a concert-industry magazine."
Even the generation of "sex, drugs and rock and roll" is tired of getting rufied and screwed for a little music.

Unless he was planning on doing something spectacular,
like setting himself on fire, I wouldn't spend a buck on him.
There are no politicians or bankers in foxholes.
I learned to ski on "free passes" when the going rate was
between $30 and $65 for a day pass, per person. A family pass was typically most of $1000 bucks. After the promotion that got us free passes ended we figured we'd have to give it up, but that winter our local resort offered $199 family passes. Skiing in general was waning, the slopes were abandoned on weekdays. They did it to generate a little business. The response was overwhelming - all the local resorts now offer similar values, and you can get multi-resort passes for even better deals. Skiing is wildly popular again, and over the 15 years since they dropped the price, it has only crept up to $229, that increase happened this year.
I won't go to concerts any more. The price for a ticket usually exceeds the price for me to go buy every CD they made, and have better quality and control of the volume. If artists brought the price back down to something where I felt I was getting fair value for my money, I might go again. I'm saying $20 IS the fair market price... whether Kid Rock's fans will agree is questionable, but there is my prediction. $20.
Love or fear? Choose again with every breath.
from what i saw on wnem news,
the tickets come with your name on them and are not transferable, to avoid price fixing. I havent atually seen one though.
Without a link,
this is just a rumor.
Should we find out through direct experience? What will the frenzy be like in your city when Kid Rock comes to town. $20 tickets and $4 beer is going to cause pandemonium!
Tickets with your name on them - weird. And then guards will check your ticket against your ID at the door? How about an Iris Scan while they're at it?
This is totally a free market anomaly. Austrian economics mandates that artificial markets find equilibrium.

MichiganDan. When's he coming to your town?
An expensive mistake.
If scalpers know they cannot resell tickets, they will not purchase them, thereby leaving promoters, solely, to bear the risks of poor sales. This leads me to wonder what would happen if the first ten shows posted losses. Do they give up the scheme, thereafter -- imagine the PR disaster that would be?!
Whatever the case, it's going to cost him him millions and backfire in terms of marketing, when, either:
1. Tickets are unavailable as scalpers snap them up in pursuit of the huge markups possible or...
2. Concert-goers are treated as if at the airport: ID'd and searched.
As per his schedule, he is
As per his schedule, he is playing at 38 venues and the number of seats vary from 12000 to 25000 but are mostly around the 20000 mark.
As a rough approximation he will generate $15.2 million in ticket sales at the $20 price.
So his projected figures:
Total Gross: $15.2
Total Attendance: 760,000
Number of Shows: 38
For comparison: Top grossing tours in 2012
Total Gross: $46.8 million
Total Attendance: 490,165
Number of Shows: 99
Average price per ticket: $95
Total Gross: $47 million
Total Attendance: 371,777
Number of Shows: 31
Average price per ticket: $126
Total Gross: $54.4 million
Total Attendance: 522,296
Number of Shows: 46
Average price per ticket: $104
KENNY CHESNEY & TIM McGRAW
Total Gross: $96.5 million
Total Attendance: 1,085,382
Number of Shows: 23
Average price per ticket: $88
Total Gross: $124.9 million
Total Attendance: 1,111,099
Number of Shows: 65
Average price per ticket: $112
Total Gross: $147.3 million
Total Attendance: 1,811,787

MICHAEL JACKSON THE IMMORTAL WORLD TOUR (by Cirque Du Soleil)

Average price per ticket: $107
Total Gross: $186.5 million
Total Attendance: 1,680,042

Average price per ticket: $139
His ticket rates are an average of 5.25 times cheaper than the above acts, his revenue at the corrected market rate would have been $80.2 Million with an average ticket price of $105.
If he was doing this concert last year, he would have ended up 8th of the top grossing tours in that year, with the higher prices.
Assuming he got the same crowd with either ticket price he would be making a loss(read foregoing revenue) of $65 Million.
If he got 20% less audience due to the higher prices, he would still gross $67 Million, which would still mean a loss of $51.8 Million
If he got only half the audience then his losses would be $24.7 Million.

Jean Claude Toviave, a former University of Michigan janitor and tennis instructor, is accused of abusing four African children, whom he passed off as his own, by forcing them to work in his home, and dishing out severe beatings when they disobeyed him.
- Filed Under
A federal jury convicted an Ypsilanti man today of enslaving and abusing four West African children in his home for years, pretending they were his own children after sneaking them into the country with fake documents.
Jean-Claude (Kodjo) Toviave, who was featured in a Free Press article about human trafficking, is facing up to 20 years in prison following the guilty verdict in federal court in Detroit on four counts of forced labor. The jury deliberated for less than a day before convicting Toviave, a former University of Michigan janitor and part-time tennis instructor.

Kafir lime tree/bush/seeds
Apparently I am the only one on any plant/herb site who knows what a Kafir Lime tree/bush is!! It is a plant used in Thai cooking. The leaves are great in fish dishes and soups. The juice is used in soups and other dishes. It doesn't grow very large and is normally called a bush. I WANT ONE OF THESE!!!
The Thai restaurants in my area have changed to Sushi and they don't use Kafir in their foods. If anyone has a favorite Thai restaurant could you please ask them for a few seeds or where I could get a plant. I would surely appreciate it and trade for anything I have--Plumerias, Night blooming Cereus, pregnant onions, etc. THANKS
I know what it is and how to use it, but I'm no good to you as to sources because I'm on the other side of the world from you. But I see it often in herb nurseries. Any large mail order herb company should be able to supply one to you - the only name I know from your part of the world is Richter's. Ask for Kaffir Lime (2 fs), or Citrus hystrix when ordering. It's a tropical plant and prefers temperatures which are fairly constant around or above 20C.
I live here in the US and purchased mine from a catalog or internet site here in the US. Sorry I can't remember who - maybe just do a general search and see what comes up? I agree - it is a must for Thai food, along with some lemongrass. If you can't find it, let me know and I will see if I can root a piece of mine for you (this would take awhile, I don't have a rooting available). Mine grows more like a small tree than a bush, but I don't particularly baby it, either.
The problem is finding a Kaffir lime tree that can be shipped to FL!
If you live out west, Nichols garden seeds sells the plants. The only source I know of for FL is Just Fruits and Exotics at www.justfruitsandexotics.com. The downfall is, that they are out of stock right now. I am waiting for them to re-stock so I can get one as well. You might want to call them and get an idea about when more might be available.
Good luck!
Call around to your local nurseries; somebody is sure to have them. Even here, where they can't survive the winter and have to be potted, they show up at every garden show and plant sale, so I'm sure they'll have them down in the "tropics" where you are.
I hope the following will help a little. According to Four Winds Growers, Kaffir limes are also known as "Kieffer limes," "Thai limes," or "wild limes." Their leaves, zest, and juice are used in Thai, Cambodian, and Indonesian cooking. Their web site has good information about the lime and where you can order it: http://www.fourwindsgrowers.com/lore/kaffir_lime.html
And, for a little more information, according to THE FOOD LOVER'S COMPANION, 2nd edition, by Sharon Tyler Herbst the definition for a kaffir lime is as follows:
"Grown in Southeast Asia and Hawaii, the kaffir lime tree produces small, pear-shaped citrus fruit with a skin that's bright yellow-green, bumpy and wrinkled. The glossy, dark green kaffir lime leaves, which are used in cooking, have a unique double shape and look like two leaves that are joined end to end. Dried kaffir lime rind and leaves, which have a mysterious flora-citrus aroma, can be found in Asian markets. Fresh leaves, which have a more intense, fragrant aroma, are sometimes also available."
Both Brite Leaf Citrus Nursery and Harris Citrus Nursery have them as 2'-3' trees. Both are located in Florida. I got a very nice Kaffir Lime tree from Harris this week. I've also previously purchased Citrus from Brite Leaf, and was very pleased with the size/quality.
My one and only kaffir lime plant has been weak for some time. The leaves have some sticky material on them and underneath are one or two brownish, flat, oval, scale-like insects?/larvae?/residue? (can't really tell what). Some of the scale-like objects were on the stems too. I've tried removing the afflicted leaves and regularly removing the scale-like stuff but it did not help. My three-year old kaffir lime tree finally died this week after the leaves just fell off one by one! I've tried so hard to keep it alive so am devastated I failed. Can anyone tell me what was wrong with my citrus tree and is there someone who could please share some kaffir lime seeds with me?
arabid--you had scale which exudes a sticky residue. Use a cotton swab soaked in rubbing alcohol and rub the tree down. Afterwards, watch it carefully for a return. You can also spray with an organic oil insecticide if the infestation is light or as a follow-up.
I know it's gone, but be ready for the next bout. Scale is not difficult if caught early. It also loves bay trees.
Seeds are iffy on a citrus. Lots of variation. Best to buy it from a nursery or catalog.
Good luck.

Broken English
Like many others, my grandparents came to this country from Europe.
They did not know the language well, but learned it as did their children and grandchildren. None of us gave up our pride in our grandparents' cultural heritage.
My grandparents, as many who came to the U.S. in the early 20th Century, understood that part of being American was speaking and reading American English.
Today we fully identify ourselves as Americans first and proficiency in American English is an integral part of that identity.
Perhaps a better approach would have been for the America the Beautiful Super Bowl commercial to play the voices of the various ethnic groups singing America the Beautiful in their own broken English and accents.
This would have been a compelling and moving expression of immigrants who are both ethnically diverse, yet proudly embracing America.

Korea also in summit clash thanks to its superior goal difference
Ipoh: Dhananjaya Mahadik performed a hat-trick as India cruised into the final of the Azlan Shah Cup hockey tournament on Saturday.
It will be the sixth final for India in the competition. India has won the trophy four times and finished runner up to Argentina in 2008.
India takes on Korea for the cup tomorrow. Korea surged past Australia and Malaysia on a goal difference of plus nine. All the three teams have 11 points each.
Comprehensive win
On a day when tension and excitement stretched the nerves of spectators with every match set to determine the finalist, India's comprehensive 7-1 win over Egypt in the deciding match came as a breath of fresh air.
Admittedly, there was an element of strain in India's performance. The Egyptians were stolid in their work around the goal, and the custodian Mabrouk Muhammad brought off a few smart saves too.
India's penalty corners — there were six in the first half — were not well taken, until Mahadik drag flicked the sixth into the post.
Pepped up by this, the Indians gained ascendency in the second half. Mahadik pumped in two more within five minutes making many wonder why this defender was not allowed to drag flick in the earlier matches.
Riding on confidence India enlarged the margin when Rajpal Singh slammed in a pass from Chikkara followed by an immaculate penalty corner conversion by Rupinderpal Singh. This was Rupinder's first international goal.
Minutes later Tushar Khandekar scored almost putting the issue of booking a place in the final beyond doubt. In the final minute Sarwanjit Singh made his presence with a goal to complete the tally.
Stormy match
In what should go into the history of the tournament as a tempestuous match, Pakistan was handed two red cards and Korea two yellows in the last five minutes of the contest that turned out an eyesore for the player-umpire fracas.
All the drama began when the Irish umpire, Warren McCully, awarded a stroke for Korea. The Pakistanis protested and held up the match for over 15 minutes until the Tournament Director, Paul Richards, intervened to restore order.
Pakistan's captain Imran Muhammad received all the three cards at one go — green, yellow and then finally red — and minutes later when the match resumed Aamir Shahzad was shown the red.
Nam Hyun Woo converted the stroke and when a minute remained from close capitalised on the penalty corner to confirm Korea's place in the final. Korea and Australia finished with 11 points but the latter made it because of a higher goal difference of plus nine to plus eight.
Pakistan's manager blamed poor supervision for the match degenerating to a farce in the final minutes.
Australia required a 4-0 margin to go over Malaysia on goal-aggregate. It did that effectively against China. But the Koreans outwitted the Aussies by one more goal.
The results: Australia 4 (Kirean Govers 2, Christopher Cirello, Grant Schubert) bt China 0.
Korea 4 (Lee Nam Yong 2, Nam Hyun Woo 2) bt Pakistan 2 (Zubair Muhammad, Imran Muhammad).
India 7 (Dhananjaya Mahadik 3 (hat-trick), Rajpal Singh, Rupinderpal Singh, Tushar Khandekar, Sarvanjit Singh) bt Egypt 1 (Halim Ahmed).
The final points table:
India: Played 6, Won 4, Drawn 1, Lost 1, Goals for 21, Goals against 14, Points 13: Korea 6-3-2-1-20-11-11; Australia 6-3-2-1-20-12-11; Malaysia 6-3-2-1-17-9-11; Pakistan 6-2-2-24-20-8; China 6-1-1-4-12-19-4; Egypt 6-0-0-6-4-33-0.
Sunday's matches: (5-6): Pakistan vs. China (1.05 p.m. IST); (3-4): Australia vs. Malaysia (2.35 p.m.); Final: India vs. Korea: (6.05 p.m.) .

Larry Ellison's Daughter Megan Enters Hollywood Spotlight With Funding Push
NEW YORK - Megan Ellison, along with her brother David Ellison who heads up Skydance Prods. and has played an increasing role in the film industry, had a producer credit on True Grit.
But the 25-year-old daughter of Oracle boss Larry Ellison has also shown broader Hollywood aspirations as of late. According to the New York Times, her Annapurna Pictures has over the past year been pouring what may soon be hundreds of millions of dollars into sophisticated dramas and adventure films that are Hollywood studios and their corporate parents may find too risky.
At least six films set for release in the coming months got major backing from Ellison and her company, according to the Times. Those include The Master, a drama about a cult starring Philip Seymour Hoffman, and the untitled film about the Osama bin Laden killing written and produced by Mark Boal and directed by Kathryn Bigelow.
She is also developing a film about WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange based on an article by departing New York Times executive editor Bill Keller. And earlier in the year, Ellison bought the rights to the Terminator franchise. The Times said her freewheeling spending has been more akin to the technology start-up world and highlighted that tech and other personalities from outside Hollywood, including Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, have often faced challenges in the film business.
But the paper said she has major plans. "She has this grand vision; she wants to be the one-stop shop for filmmakers," said Michael Benaroya, a member of a Seattle real estate family who has joined Ellison in financing two films - a thriller called Catch .44 and Prohibition-era crime drama The Wettest County in the World.
Friends and business associates describe her as shy, but the Times said she reportedly once posted on MySpace a photo with the caption: "Drunk dialing Dad in Paris after 3 bottles of Dom."
Ellison declined interview requests, the Times said.

Pellet stove linings

Can I vent my pellet stove through the face of the chimney or do I need to install 4" flex line through the entire length of the chimney. So instead of running 35" of lining can I get away with about 10' on the outside of the chimney face.

Colbie Caillat Boyfriend Justin Kawika Young Wants To Be Vegetarian
Written by Vegetarian Star on May 25th, 2010 in Couples, Environment-Eco-Green, Female Musicians, Female Singers, Food & Drink.
Colbie Caillat can now share kisses with her guitarist Justin Kawika Young while traveling on the road.
According to Hollywoodlife, the two are now an official item and the singer admits her third album is pretty much a "I'm in love with Young" tribute.
"I have like 15 songs — they're all pretty much about him — the falling in love stage and anything about him," Caillat said.
That's nice.
Even more interesting, though, is that Young is an aspiring vegetarian who may at least partly want to do so because of environment reasons.
"He's really healthy mentally and physically, he wants to help the environment and he wants to be a vegetarian — stuff like that. He's just a beautiful person."
Fantastic, but we want more details.
Is Colbie also aiming to be vegetarian?
Are they already sharing soy shakes on the road?
Does she giggle like a grade school girl when she finds spinach on his teeth from the veggie hummus roll he ate after a performance?
Hope for both of their sakes, the relationship stays good.
There's nothing worse than a "Are you the one who ate my Wasa crackers," argument than when you're on the road at 3AM in the middle of nowhere.

A monthly column devoted to IP curiosities and controversies, named in honour of John of Utynam - who received the world's first recorded patent in 1449
Any IP offenders in the vicinity of Gleneagles, Scotland at
the end of June would have been well advised to take cover as
delegates at the IP Vision conference, organized by patent
attorneys Marks & Clerk, were let loose on the shooting
Armed with shotguns, the attorneys, lawyers and VIPs in
attendance took aim at clay pigeons fired at a variety of
angles and speeds. Utynam (who, living in south London, is
familiar with the dangers of weapons) will not embarrass those
who took part by revealing the scores – except to say
that the wildlife of Scotland is in no immediate danger from
gun-wielding IP practitioners.
He was however pleased to be able to use a gun made by
Italian firm Beretta – which can trace its history
back to 1526, just...

Utah basketball's scholarship roster will be a 50/50 blend
SALT LAKE CITY — Utah basketball's scholarship roster for 2013-14 will be a 50/50 split with six returning players and a half-dozen newcomers.
The Utes, thus, will be a blend of old and new in their third season under head coach Larry Krystkowiak.
"That part is exciting," he said. "It's going to be challenging again, but I like where we are."
After two years of massive overhauls, Utah's roster is stabilizing.
Dallin Bachynski, Renan Lenz, Jordan Loveridge, Jeremy Olsen, Brandon Taylor and Dakarai Tucker will be back next season. They'll be joined by signees Ahmad Fields, Marko Kovacevic, Kenneth Ogbe, Princeton Onwas, Parker Van Dyke and Delon Wright.
Openings were created by the graduation of Jarred DuBois, Cedric Martin and Jason Washburn, as well as the departures of Aaron Dotson, Glen Dean and Justin Seymour.
Krystkowiak said that all three players are leaving the program. Dean and Dotson, however, will stay at Utah to earn their degrees this summer. Dean will then head to Idaho and play his final season with his younger brother. Dotson is focusing on graduation and rehabbing his injured knee. Krystkowiak was uncertain about Seymour's future plans.
The Utes, who went 15-18 and reached the Pac-12 Tournament semifinals last season, are moving forward with a roster featuring only one senior (Lenz). Krystkowiak said that the new recruiting class gives the Utes more size out on the perimeter and players with unique skill sets.
"I think we'll be able to be more athletic and longer and try to keep up with the rest of the people in the league," Krystkowiak said.
The program, he added, has made gains in other areas as well. There are no longer terminology issues, and players have a solid understanding of how Krystkowiak and his staff want to get things done.
Utah had a four-game winning streak late last season.
"I feel like we've made some pretty good strides. I feel a little bit of momentum," Krystkowiak said. "I think we started playing pretty good basketball at the end of the year. Part of me wanted to not have it be over."
The Utes, he said, are just trying to keep getting better. They won nine more games in 2012-13 than in the previous season.
"There's going to be those peaks and valleys along the way, but I think the graph line is still moving upward," Krystkowiak said. "And I feel pretty positive about it."
EXTRA STUFF: Washburn has been invited to pre-draft workouts with the Utah Jazz and Denver Nuggets. Former Brighton High star Brandon Miller, who signed with the Utes in November, is serving an LDS Church mission before beginning his college career. Sophomore center Harry Whitt, a walk-on transfer from Southern Illinois who sat out last season, has decided to retire because of a knee injury. Niagara (19-14) will be one of Utah's non-conference home games in 2013-14. The Utes are also interested in hosting a Thanksgiving tournament for the second consecutive year.

Research on Widening the Virtual Listening Space in Automotive Environment
This paper represents the research about a way to widen the virtual space in cars. Generally, the interior of cars contains small volume compared to normal listening environments. And this makes listeners feel a little stuffy. So, the way to widen a virtual space in cars is needed. One of the most important cues for spaciousness is the lateral reflections in accordance with room acoustics, so we will widen virtual space in cars using artificial lateral reflections in automotive environment.

"Too bad that the impact of Cap and Trade is buried so deep that it can't be quantified. The spread of CA avg above the Nat average was $.30/g a year ago, got up to $.40/g at year end and is now just above $.50/g. Remembering that CA is part of the Nat average and so the spread is even greater if there was a calc without CA in the average."
Absolutely right StArrow68, but that just gives cover to those that claim cap and trade has had no effect on CA gasoline prices. The sand is conveniently provided for them to bury their heads.

If you trace it back a few years, the ice hockey timeline for Nicolas Kerdiles seems pretty standard.
A stint with the United States National Team Development Program, a few international appearances, some college hockey, and now his rookie season in the American Hockey League with the Norfolk Admirals after his first National Hockey League training camp this past September.
Before all that, before the call to the USNTDP, before going No. 36 to the Anaheim Ducks in the 2012 NHL Draft, Kerdiles' road to professional hockey began 20 minutes from the Honda Center on a suburban street in Irvine, Calif., with a neighbor who needed an extra in a game of roller hockey.

|Property type
|Minimum Stay
|2 - 7 nights
This condo is designed for stylish and relaxing beach experience. Once you pull into the covered parking, there is really no need to drive for the rest of your stay. With a 2-3 minute walk you can arrive at the Tybee Island Pier, the Breakfast Club, or any of the shops and restaurants on Tybrisa. For those seeking adventure, there are several recreational kiosks selling activity packages and/or renting bikes/kayaks/boats/jetskis.
On the inside, our condo offers all of the comforts of home with a full kitchen and dining table featuring stainless steel appliances and granite counter tops. The kitchen comes fully equipped with all utensils for cooking and serving. All furniture was purchased in Mid-2010. There are 2 big screen televisions, the largest being 47' in the main room. The master features a King size bed, while the other two feature Queens and doubles. The unit has it's own stack-able washer and dryer set.

My name is Karen White. I live in Marietta, GA with my 3 sons. I have been a foreign language teacher in the Fulton County School system for more than 30 years. Myself, and my son, Jody maintain this condo for our own enjoyment as well as the enjoyment of others.
Jody purchased this condo in 2010
When we decided that we wanted a place near the water, we were looking for combination of convenience and unique qualities. Tybee Island is the closest beach to the Atlanta area, but it is it's size and charm that set it apart. Tybee Island is a place that is neither too large nor too small. Simply put, it feels like a place that you can 'get to know.' It will never become a generic place like Hilton Head or Panama City, but will retain it's character and identity for years to come.
In Tybee, you have many opportunities. If you want to stay and relax at the beach, beach-comb near the pier, sightsee at the lighthouse - then you don't even need to leave the island. If you want to enjoy Savannah's unique cultural and dining establishments, then it's only a 25 minute car ride.
We couldn't have asked for better accommodations! We had 5 adults plus one dog and we had more room than we thought. It was nice to have a garage for parking our two cars. Loved the elevator to haul all our food and bags up for our stay. Patio was very useful for the smoker in our group plus for us to check out the pirates around for the weekend. Weather was perfect for us to use the beach and with the garden hose at our condo we could rinse off the sand to keep our floor cleaner. Beds & pillows were so comfortable. Bathrooms roomy and very clean. One of my daughters is so particular about the little things like updated furniture,kitchen counters and counter space. I scored big for picking you! We wanted to stay longer but unfortunately couldn't. Thank you for being available for only a 2 night stay. That was hard to find!
Just wanted to compliment the owners on their communication and understanding. We had a medical emergency within our group...first we hoped to re-schedule for a future week and the owners were completely willing with no loss of money...but then we had to cancel and once again, they were understanding and quickly e-mailed us back responding to our questions. We finally cancelled after our first reservation date had passed, and although we understandably lost a small booking fee, we got our refund...even the offer of a future discount. The owners are a class act and we will certainly try to re-book.
Great Location! Very comfortable condo. Loved going to the beach in the evening and watching the boys fish as the sun went down. AJs and Sting Rays never disappoint!
Thank you for the great place to stay.
The condo is in excellent condition. Really clean and the beds were so comfortable. Love all the flooring and upgraded countertops. The beach was just a quick 3 minute walk away. Located right next to the pier and south side of Tybee which is the BEST part of Tybee. We were able to check in early and that made our day even easier cause we were able to unload our stuff and run to the local IGA (just a few minutes away) for some groceries and snacks before hitting the beach.
I think the only part I didn't care for is that the pool is shared with another facility next door and it seemed to have a lot of people smoking by it. We didn't spend but about an hour at the pool combined cause we loved the beach so much.
We would book again and for sure will visit Tybee again next year.
Savannah is so close also and fell in love with the whole area!
Great time!
The condo was in great condition....
Close to beach....But no view....would have liked that....
This condo was clean and well-maintained, exactly like the pictures. Great covered parking and just a few steps from the beach/pier and action of Tybee Island. We didn't need our car until we took the short drive into Savannah for the day. Our whole family enjoyed this trip and can't wait to return to Tybee....we will definitely book this condo again.
