A Seattle outlet of the 16,000-store coffee behemoth is being rebranded without visible Starbucks identifiers, as 15th Avenue Coffee and Tea.
Two other stores in Starbucks' native Seattle will follow suit, each getting its own name to make it sound more like a neighborhood hangout, less like Big Coffee, a Starbucks official told The Seattle Times on Thursday.
"The Goliath is coming at me under a new name," said Dan Ollis, owner of Victrola Coffee Roasters, a coffee shop on 15th Avenue in the Capitol Hill neighborhood, about a block-and-a-half from the made-over Starbucks set to open next week.
We tried to ask Starbucks, but got no response Thursday. If the chain — which has been trying to boost profits by experimenting with instant coffee, super-premium coffee and more — does come at the locals in the cafe equivalent of unmarked cars, the locals will be ready.
"They must be conceding something. They must be feeling they can't compete on a neighborhood level," said Tony Dreyfuss, an owner of Metropolis Coffee Company, in the Edgewater neighborhood. "It does feel a little bit sneaky to me. But our quality is better than theirs, I feel, and our customers know us. "

The Riders of the Purple Sage
Initially published in 1912 and the first of Zane Grey's many bestsellers, this stirring tale of adventure in the high country established the prototype for western novels of the twentieth century. The plot's focus is a proud young heroine who's determined to defend her Utah ranch. She stands alone against the villains who rustle and stampede her cattle -- until a stranger rides into the territory. Notorious as the scourge of Mormon transgressors, the stranger stays on to assist in the inevitable showdown, and romance blooms amid the canyons and cottonwoods. A classic of American frontier fiction, Riders of the Purple Sage teems with color, authenticity, and thrills.

The Urban Renewal Authority (Chinese: 市區重建局; URA) is a quasi-governmental, profit-making[1] statutory body in Hong Kong responsible for accelerating urban redevelopment.

|This section requires expansion. (July 2014)
The authority's predecessor, the Land Development Corporation (土地發展公司, or 土發 for short), was founded in 1988. The new Urban Renewal Authority was founded in 1999 with the intention of speeding up urban renewal. Due to difficulties reaching agreements on compensation packages for people affected by planned redevelopments, the actual commencement of the URA was delayed.[2] The agency was finally established on 1 May 2001 and the LDC was dissolved on the same day.[3]
Urban decay in Hong Kong[edit]
|This section does not cite any references or sources. (July 2014)
At present, there are about 16,000 private buildings in the metro area (Hong Kong Island, Kowloon, Tsuen Wan District and Kwai Tsing District) which are 30 years old and above. By 2030, the number of buildings over 30 years old will increase by four folds. The problem of ageing buildings is more serious in older urban areas.
To address the problem of urban decay and improve the living conditions of residents in dilapidated areas, the Urban Renewal Authority Ordinance (Chapter 563) was enacted in July 2000. The Ordinance provides a new institutional framework for carrying out urban renewal. The Hong Kong Government conducted a comprehensive review of "Urban Renewal Strategy" in 2008. After two years' extensive community engagement, a broad consensus had been reached and the new Strategy was promulgated on 24 Feb 2011.
The Urban Renewal Proposals[edit]
|This section does not cite any references or sources. (July 2014)
The stated strategy of the URA is that Hong Kong's urban renewal should follow three major principles: "Putting People first"; "District-Based"; and "Community Participation". Their adherence to these tenets has been questioned by some, including legislator Kenneth Chan, who stated that "the URA always puts its interests first" in reference to the controversy surrounding the Graham Street market eviction,[1] and in reference to the "undemocratic" approach undertaken by the URA in demolishing Lee Tung Street.
Although urban renewal is difficult to define clearly, it normally involves relatively large-scale redevelopment of urban areas, rather than piecemeal rebuilding of individual buildings or the provision of specific facilities. Its objectives include:
- improvements to living condition to residents living in old urban areas;
- improvements to the urban environment and infrastructure by the provision of more open space, community and other facilities;
- enhancements to urban layouts, road networks and other infrastructure;
- the substitution or overhaul of archaic buildings;
- better exploitation of land;
- thinning out of development and population densities to reduce the strain on over-burdened transport and other infrastructure;
- making accessible land to meet various uses such as housing, and
- redeveloping a particular area to act as a catalyst for the redevelopment of neighbouring areas by private developers, as enhanced property values make this more viable.
Two townscape enhancement schemes, namely Stone Nullah Lane in Wan Chai and the area around Lan Kwai Fong and adjoining the Central District Central-Mid-Levels escalator (the Soho area), are proposed to preserve their unique local character and to enhance their attractiveness to tourists. For the Stone Nullah Lane area, it is proposed to form part of an adjoining redevelopment priority project area. The redevelopment project will be carefully designed to integrate with the preservation of a group of the adjoining buildings of heritage value.
Redevelopment projects by the Urban Renewal Authority typically involve the wholesale demolition of urban districts and the consolidation of numerous city blocks to accommodate large-scale commercial development. This approach is frequently criticised for destroying cultural heritage, unique local character, and touchstones of collective memory.[4][5] Community and economic networks are also dismantled as the compensation the URA offers to displaced residents and merchants is rarely sufficient to permit them to return to the affected district.[4][5][6] Such grievances are leveled against most URA redevelopment projects, and have escalated to community uprising and hunger strikes by those unwilling to be evicted.[5][7][8] The authority has been said to view all older, low-rise districts as merely "vacant airspace with great development potential" rather than functioning communities, thus putting vast older areas of the city under threat of destruction.[9]
In addition to economic exclusivity and disregard for local communities, URA redevelopments have also been criticised for poor urban design, such as long stretches of blank wall at ground level which effectively kills the vibrant street life for which older districts are known.[6][9][10][11][12][13]
Demolition of Lee Tung Street[edit]
Lee Tung Street (Chinese: 利東街), better known by its local nickname "Wedding Card Street" (Chinese: 喜帖街), is famous for its printing shops that sell custom-made wedding cards, coloured bright red for good luck. Tens of thousands purchased their wedding cards in the area in the preceding decades, and the district was also the birthplace of the publishing business in Hong Kong.[5] The URA announced in 2003 its intention to redevelop an area of 8,900 square metres centred on Lee Tung and McGregor streets.[5] Fifty-four buildings housing 930 households were planned to be torn down to accommodate four residential towers and four shopping malls.[14]
The redevelopment was subject to a heavy backlash in the community. The decision to demolish was called "undemocratic" and contrary to the stated "people-centred" mandate of the URA.[14] The wedding card printers and publishers were concerned about the loss of invaluable economic and social networks, having to leave the district due to high real estate prices, and the loss of accessibility to suppliers and customers alike.[14] Even though the redevelopment includes a "Wedding City"-themed shopping mall, merchants complained they could not return to the area because most could not afford the increased rents.[8] Under the Land Resumption Ordinance, the URA was able to expropriate tenants and landowners regardless of their will, leading to accusations that URA activities run contrary to public interest and represent an infringement on property rights.[4][14]
The H15 Concern Group (Chinese: H15關注組) was formed to save the wedding card shops and produced an alternative plan called the "dumbbell proposal" which retained the signature tong lau (Chinese walk-up buildings).[15] This plan later received a Silver Award from the Institute of Planners.[14] The URA faced criticism when demolition of the area began three weeks before the Town Planning Board was set to consider the concern group's alternative proposal, with URA chairman Barry Cheung Chun-yuen being driven out of the area by upset locals.[7] One resident, a former shopowner, staged a hunger strike after the bulldozers moved in earlier than anticipated and was hospitalised after four days.[8][16][17]
Development chief Carrie Lam defended the project, stating that the buildings of Lee Tung Street were "not worth keeping and had little historic value" and that "stopping the plan would jeopardise the city's future planning".[17] The H15 Concern Group proposal to save the street was rejected by the Planning Department in January 2008 for failing to include a structural assessment, which the concern group said was outside their financial capability.[18] The URA and the government went on to demolish the street as planned, and redevelopment is well underway.
Expropriation of commercial tenants[edit]
Commercial tenants sometimes have a different view towards urban renewal as low-cost premises are getting hard to find. Affordable commercial space is not always available in newly developed commercial buildings. Even owner-operators of commercial premises are unable to relocate in the same district because the compensation they get from the Urban Renewal Authority does not always match the purchase price of similar-sized properties in the same district.[4] It was proposed, therefore, that options should be made available to owners or tenants so that they can choose between physical relocation by developers, cash compensation to allow them buy or rent elsewhere, or wind up their businesses altogether.
Suppression of internal dissent[edit]
At the end of April 2007 Alan Leong Kah-kit was dropped from the board of directors of the URA after two years of service. Leong said he was not angry or surprised, and expressed doubt on whether the authority works in the public interest: "The government expects those who are appointed to statutory bodies to shut up and not express any opposing view to the public [...] It doesn't really matter that I have not been reappointed to the authority. After all, if I really want to work for the people, then there is no point in staying there."[19] Another Civic Party member and Legislative Councillor Tanya Chan was appointed to the URA board.
Graham and Peel Street demolitions[edit]
In 2007 the URA announced a plan to demolish several city blocks of old tong lau on Graham Street (Chinese: 嘉咸街) and Peel Street (Chinese: 卑利街), replacing them with a $3.8 billion scheme comprising four high-rises: two residential blocks, one office tower, and a hotel. Some 360 property owners and 1,120 residents in 37 existing buildings, built from the pre-war years to the 1960s, have been affected.[20][21] In the process the URA plans to also evict the oldest wet market in the city, founded 1841.[1] The plan was submitted to and approved by the Town Planning Board in early 2007. The market is considered culturally significant by many Hong Kong people for its vibrancy, "unique cultural landscape",[22] and its preservation of "a very traditional Chinese way of life".[23]
The Central and Western Concern Group, a coalition of ten community groups, pointed out that the destruction of the market, a tourist attraction, would "bring its rich and dynamic history to an end" and that many of the vendors did not want to be evicted.[24] The shop owners lamented the high rent levels elsewhere, the cost of relocation, the emotional attachment they held to the longstanding marketplace and the loss of their customer base.[21] In opposition to the redevelopment, a Graham Street Market Festival was organised in November 2007 to showcase the "cultural treasures and unique features" of the market with the aim of encouraging the government to "rethink its town planning policy". Support was lent by TVB celebrity chef Chow Chung, who offered cooking classes with ingredients purchased from the market.[23] A second such festival was held in November 2008.[25]
The URA responded to this backlash through several proposals. They promised the redevelopment would incorporate an "old shops street" which would, according to managing director Billy Lam Chung-lun, "bring back the old charm and streetscapes".[21] The Central and Western Concern Group called the plan "artificial" given that such an environment already exists, and that the so-called "decorated stage" would take too long to build.[26] Secondly, the URA also promised to build a two-storey wet market complex on a lot labelled "site B" to house the displaced vendors. This plan was criticised as the proposed building would accommodate fewer than half the vendors currently operating in the area. By 2013 the wet market had not been constructed, yet vendors had been served eviction notices regardless.[1]

Street ecology and demographic of the community have drastically changed after urban renewal. Upon the completion of Island Crest, old shops at the adjacent part nearby were moved out or closed down. The street becomes deserted, and local small scale business plummeted.
- ^ Shelton, Karakiewicz & Kvan 2011, p. 105: "[...] the particular configuration shows an 'island mentality' that erodes the established functional pattern of the area's street network, for the development's shop fronts do not so much duplicate or extend Mong Kok's street-life but rather transfer it from the flanking Shanghai, Argyle, Portland and Shantung Streets to the internal, and more or less dead-end, 'hill-street'."
- ^ Shelton, Karakiewicz & Kvan 2011, p. 130: "As we have observed, even Langham Place [...] is more defensive than porous about its street-level edges. As a strategy, therefore, a podium needs to be engaged with the city, not treated as a self-contained entity."

text: The Takanuva wiki last edited by fables87 on 03/15/15 05:04AM View full history During a patrol in Metru Nui, Takanuva was attacked by a shadow leech which drained him partly of his light powers, giving him shadow powers and dark grey armor. He was then brought to the Order of Mata Nui who informed him he must go to Karda Nui to help the Toa Nuva and warn them of a coming energy storm. He used Brutaka's mask of dimensional gates to travel, but because the mask was damaged he ended up in an alternate universe where the Toa ruled over the Matoran with an iron fist. During his time here, he became infected with a makuta virus which gave him the power of flight and eventually cause him to grow to titan size. he would escape this universe and end up in one where Mata Nui is dead and the inhabitants live on the surface. Here, he gained a new triple-bladed light spear and a Midax Skyblaster. He managed to make it to Karda Nui and used his new found powers and weapons to defeat the Makuta. During the escape from Karda Nui, he was exposed to a rahi screech which was able to restore his light powers to full power, as well as restore all the Shadow Matoran to normal. When Teridax took over the Matoran Universe, Takanuva altered the color of his armor so he wouldn't stick out as much. He aided Tahu in collecting the Golden Armor pieces.Powers/weapons: Takanuva possesses a seemingly limitless source of light power. He can light up the darkest area, project beams of light from his spear, and create a light barrier. Other light powers include the ability to create holograms and bend the light around him to become invisible. Takanuva is also capable of altering the color of his armor. He is also working on other light based powers such as creating solid light and moving at light speed. He once had power over both light and shadow power, but he had since regained his full light power. He wears the Kanohi Mask of Light which can generate tremendous amounts of light and rid negative feelings from others. He now weilds a Triple-bladed light spear and a Midak Skyblaster which can fire spheres of light with explosive power. Most recently, he has abandoned his weapsons for Twin Light Staffs.

(emtnest)deck pics & Birch rails- WIP
Here's some pics I found that I took from the deck last summer.
Our house is on the second floor above the workshop/garage.
We built our house out of pocket and with our own 4 hands and some help from good friends.. It's been 4 yrs since we broke ground and we only moved in a year ago.
We are still a work in progress, but we're gettin there. We have escavating, siding and the Birch deck rails left (the rails are in the process now-see pics). Hopefully this summer the rest will get done. If not next summer. Later, Cathy

What a gorgeous deck, and your container garden is wonderful. Lots of good stuff in your album. I especially like the huge urn, the pink shelf and the umbrella stand. Well - pretty much all of it.
I couldn't find the umbrella stand... where is it?
The 1st post and rail went up a couple of days ago!!! I am getting so excited....Hopefully it will be done by the end of the week.....
Here is a link that might be useful: 1st post and rail
It's been a slow process but it's coming along...sure is looking nice!!!
Here is a link that might be useful: deck progress
It's a slow process..He gets about one rail a day. It's a lot more work than we anticapted. Drilling and matching the holes and putting in the bolts,screws, plugs and wiring for lights. But it is a little over half done...Only three more panels on the other end and the other side of the stairs. I can't wait to start flowering it up!!!
Here is a link that might be useful: Birch deck
HI all and HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!!!! The deck is done!!!! We celebrated Mother's Day and my birthday with Alaska King crab and all the fixins our gorgeous deck today!!!! The sun was shining and it was lovely!! It's been 9 months in the making and worth every month because it is BEAUTIFUL!!! My hubby did a fantastic job.....We will paint (stain) the floor area tomorrow and then just spend the rest of the summer enjoying it. I have to get busy on more pots for flowers...
Here is a link that might be useful: Finished brich deck rails
Sounds like you had a wonderful Mother's Day, as did I. Your deck railing looks great. Enjoy.
Your home makes my heart so full of gladness for you. It is majestic and will be in total harmony with the nature sourounding it. Even the enterior projects all blend in with the earthy spirit of the decor. You and your Husband are amazing folks.

Out and About - Snowshoe message
The recent cold snap hasn't sent everyone scurrying indoors. Van Gooch of Holmes City noticed deer and snowmobile tracks on Echo Lake from his home along Rachel Shores. "I thought I should go out with my snowshoes and stamp out an emblem or message," he said. "My wife suggested that I do '2014' and the next thing I knew, I was out there doing it!"

For digital camera start the program "Zeno PTP View".
2. Is program limited to only devices with USB-host?
Yes and no. It depends on the hardware construction, accesible USB connector, even older devices without usb-host can have usb-host functionality. Many models and manufacturers has hidden this feature which really exists in their devices. The only way to find is to test it and if not working, search if other users succeeded. Original Fujitsu Siemens Pocket Loox 560N has included by default usb-host connector, with support for HDD-Memory Flash only.
3. Cables and power supply - which ones?
I always tested it with powersupply incoupled for my Loox, even if HDD or DVD-unit self was powered separated. More info on how to build an injected USB power supply here:

4. Does it work on my device?
There's nothing harmful, nothing malicious hidden in my program, so you can test it on your devices without risk for dataloss or other unpleasant effects.
The installation (CAB) is not locked to certain device, it is uninstallable, it is not compressed to avoid install problems on certain devices. On my FSC Loox 560N I could install/uninstall without problems. Test my program, if it works, I'll be glad I could help other users, without thinking of money or profit. If it does not work, I can not guarantee I can help you. Just try and see.
5. Can it read data from attached DVD-unit or NTFS partitions?
Yes. The DVD unit I used is an Acer USB-based CD&DVD-RW made 2004 for an Acer Tablet-PC.
6. Barcode readers?
A user commented that even an USB barcode reader worked ok.
7. Incompatibility problems with other programs?
I can only test on my FSC Loox 560N. You can try on other devices and report in this thread on your experiences.
8. Legal aspects. Is this program legal?
Yes. All informations and sources are based on free available information and sources. No licences or copyrights were infringed. All is legal to use.
9. How much does it cost?
This program made by me, Zeno Sloim, is completeley free to use and test. I do not demand any payment or any other material form of recompense.

I add also some personal comments on my Android testing.
Android - next step to "Globalization"
I tested Android Emulator and a lot of Android apps apps yesterday.
I'm a devoted fan of Windows Mobile 6.1 (6.5 is bloated and 7 worse).
I wanted to see quickly its capabilities, minuses, and so on.
My primary observations:
1. Very few programs, complicate to do elementary tasks like in Windows Mobile
2. A program new version can't be installed over older version - first uninstall old version, which means UPDATE does not exist in Android!
3. Very limited offer of serious and advanced software, compared to Windows Mobile. Plenty of small apps (and imho mostly cheap jippo and junk for masses in Apple style, where a normal advanced Windows Mobile app is chunked in pieces and reselled as 10 new products in fancy emballage for masses - I hate this greedy commercialism a la Apple, where THEY DECIDE OVER YOU AND WHAT YOU CAN DO.
4. Windows Mobile 6.1 has greatest number of serious advanced apps and will remain so for many years, cause with Windows Mobile 7 and new trend of AppStore-Market, Microsoft comes in the same shame league of Nokia, Apple and Android-Google - read TOTAL CONTROL OVER YOUR PROGRAMS, NEW WALLS TO PIRACY AND INCREASED CONTROL OF YOUR PRIVATE DATA!
A lot of medium scale developers or small companies will leave the market due to secret honerous and unjustified taxes to be eligible to a certain AppStore-Market, like Nokia did many years ago with Symbian.
See now, just count number of serious advanced apps for Nokia with those for Windows Mobile 5-6! Nokia is almost inexistent. Capabilities of Symbian software is very poor to what exist for Windows Mobile! Exactlier said, most simple apps and junk for masses, this is Symbian nowadays: forget CAD, Mathematics, Astronomy, advanced networking, ... and list is long...
Same for Android, mostly simple programs which are years behind what exists for Windows Mobile. In fact, an identical situation if you compare Linux market with Windows one. No person or company is interested in sacrifice work and money for 0. That is Linux, same will be for Android, but Android is even greedier and Google tendence for control and intrusion in private life makes Android even worse.
Just think that there are no firewalls or traffic sniffers/logger for Android. I doubt that Airscanner Mobile Firewall, ProtectStar Mobile Firewal, or any other company will develop something for Android.
Android, like Windows 7 or Nokia Symbian are no longer done for end-user (read people, masses), but for maximizing profit for companies, minimazing piracy even if this means total invasion of your private life and data and only one part (read Apple, or Nokia, or Google or Microsoft (with Windows Phone 7), to controll everything about you, what you download, what you use, what you listen, whom you talk.
Looks like the concept "globalization" is entering with full and ugly force in your private life, when what is still called democracy looks more and more with Nazi, CIA, NSA or Communist total surveillance, like Orwell wrote in its famous "1984".
That is what Google is doing today and Microsoft follows.
5. And now for the typical enthusiast tester of new apps - the standard figure from PPCWarez: antipiracy is stronger and stronger, control is worse and much harder to "make free" what you want: hardware device or software.
IMHO, the most advanced Windows Mobile device/phone has nothing less than latest Android phones when it comes to technical features.
I'll remain a devoted Windows Mobile, because I hate when OTHERS ARE INTRUDING MY PERSONAL DATA AND WANTS TO CONTROL ME, in Windows Mobile 6.1 it's me who controlls, neither Google, Apple, Nokia or Microsoft. I simply can not understand people who sacrifice their privacy and personal data only because they "believe" advertisements from Apple or Google.
I simply laugh when I see how many are praising Nexus One or HTC Desire, when these mobile simply sucks bad ass compared to what a HTC HD2 or Omnia II can do in Windows Mobile and how many apps are available WITHOUT CONTROL and AppStore-Market jippos.
IMHO, the whole concept of AppStore-Market is a real threat to what we call democracy, personal freedom and private data & life.
And that is the direct consequence of what is called today "Globalization" , better read "Corporations and Private Companies" want to rule over countries, governments, nations and people.
The whole technical revolution from western contries is completely inexistent in most countries of Central and South America, Africa, Asia.
Powerty and social inequities are becoming worse and worse, while Apple, Microsoft, Nokia become greadier and greadier, for naming only from Information Technology and Communication area.
With respect and regards,
Zeno Sloim

Gavin Rossdale - The Things They Say 20866
by WENN | 21 March 2011
Picture: Gavin Rossdale and sons Kingston and Zuma Rossdale Gnomeo and Juliet World Premiere, held at the El Capitan Theatre - arrivals Hollywood, California - 23.01.11
"I threw a party in New Orleans just as an excuse to hang out with her. We drank a bunch of hurricanes and went around the French Quarter. We had our first kiss that night." Rocker Gavin Rossdale on how he wooed his wife Gwen Stefani.

Thanks everyone for the great input. I will be sure to post up my perceived review of the beer when it does finally get kegged. I think I'll get an ounce or two of Cascade and dry hop with that. From the post above, seems like I should ahve done more 0min additions if not hop standing. Thanks!
You don't need to let you beer sit in primary for a month. At the right temps, and with proper pitching rates, fermentation will be done in a week, two at the most. The sooner you keg those IPAs the less aroma you will lose.
Doing this recipe again as the last one turned out pretty good after a week or 2 in the keg. This time, I'm using 4oz of Cascade and 4oz of Chinook.
Might anyone want to advise on a boil schedule for this one? Think I'm going to listen to the guy above and stick to early and late additions.
1 oz at 60 (or however much you need to get your desired IBUs, use chinook since it's going to be higher AA%)
1 oz at 10
2 oz at 5
2 oz at flame-out
2 oz dry-hop
you could also do a hop stand:
1 oz at 60 (or however much you need to get your desired IBUs, use chinook since it's going to be higher AA%)
1 oz at 5
2 oz at flame-out, let sit for 10 minutes
2 oz at 175-180*F (chill down to 175-180*F, add hops, stir quickly, cover, let rest for 20 mins, then resume chilling)
2 oz dry-hop
if you have any additional hops, increase the dry-hop to 3 or 4 oz.

The Krank lamp: funky, functional and eco-friendly
By Jude Garvey
March 2, 2008
March 3, 2008 The 2008 Greener Gadgets Design Competition produced a number of eco-friendly, innovative designs including the "Krank", a light-weight lamp which is powered by hand.
Designed by Efrain E. Velez from the US, the Krank was inspired by the shape and function of an old-fashioned mechanical drill like your grandfather probably used.
This manual device uses the principle of magnetic induction. You simply 'krank' the handle, which agitates a magnet surrounded by copper coil and after one minute of kranking there is sufficient voltage to power the L.E.D.s for 40 to 60 minutes of bright light.
The Krank design features a fully recyclable body made from aluminum parts and as it is lightweight, manufacturing it will have a reduced impact on the environment. Given the success of all things wind-up in recent years, from torches and radios to mobile phone chargers, the Krank almost certainly has a market waiting to be tapped.Share

text: The immigrant welcoming movement has hit a major milestone: Welcoming America's Welcoming Cities and Counties program has reached 50 members with the recent addition of the City of Decatur, Georgia. In under two years, the Welcoming Cities and Counties program has grown from 18 members to 50 members, more than doubling the number of municipalities dedicated to welcoming immigrants. "The pace of enrollment continues to pick up; 50 cities and counties is really just the tip of the iceberg. It won't be too long before all localities will feel they are falling behind if they don't move in this direction," Lubell said. Read the rest of this entry »
