High-Octane homage
I think it's safe to say WiiWare's version of Retro City Rampage is a little late to the party, but as the phrase goes, better late than never.
This game will be available to download tomorrow, regardless of which side of the pond you live on:
Retro City Rampage's developer Brian Provinciano has also uploaded a video detailing some of the interesting technical aspects of squeezing RCR into a game that's actually capable of running on 8-bit hardware (like the NES) - The Making of ROM City Rampage.

Oh man, this is funny. Too bad I didn´t have a chance to try the links.
Lol, someone must feel embarassed.
i tried a link i guess before they went down. i downloaded a song from his uploads section just to see if it would work, it worked. too funny!
the upload link says it is now broken. the guy should of kept it up unless his boss told him to take it down.. he just looks guilty now.
could be or it could be that he doesn't even run his own website, you think someone that high up is going to be messing with something like that? hell no, pay the lackies! so it could've been someone else, thats the allure of it, who knows?
Anyhow he is the one responsible, let's see Sony turn on it's own or whoever the copyright holder is!
And there is proof to say that those File's don't belong to the other users on that server?
and the other 50+ users on that server?
To state that those files belong to any of those people is spurious.
Good point, but ultimately I imagine if there was any legal issues the responsibility would fall back on the person who owns the domain... versus those who may have Web pages on it.
Chances are, whoever it was removed the files and this is the last we'll hear of it though.

Avalon String Quartet to present fourth concert April 13
Staff Report
Mendelssohn Performing Arts Center will present the Avalon String Quartet in a concert titled "Serendipitous Harmony" at 7 p.m., Friday, April 13, in Mendelssohn PAC's Emerson Auditorium, 415 N. Church St. in Rockford. Concertgoers can experience the power and passion of Beethoven, enjoy light refreshments, and mingle with the artists after the concert.
The Avalon String Quartet, one of the country's leading string ensembles, was formerly in residence at Juilliard School and Indiana University, and is now in residence at Northern Illinois University.
The quartet is performing a special six-concert series of Beethoven's string quartets for Mendelssohn PAC this season. In this fourth program of the series, "Serendipitous Harmony," three works in closely-related tonalities are brought together in the same way one might study an artist's diverse treatments of a single theme (i.e., Picasso's use of the guitar in his artwork, or architect Frank Lloyd Wright's fascination with Japanese woodblock prints).
Tickets are $10 for adults and $5 for students.
The fifth concert of the series will be held June 1. The sixth concert has been postponed until the fall of 2012 (date TBA).
For tickets or more information, call (815) 964-9713.

by Loren McDonald on Jan 29, 10:00 AM
As an email marketer, publisher, email service provider or other participant in the email industry, you have a chance to help shape the development of an important new metric: the render rate, as proposed by the Measurement Accuracy Roundtable of the Email Experience Council. The "render rate" is a new industry-wide metric created to measure the initial level of email engagement more accurately and consistently than the open rate.

Using Response Data To Make Great Decisions
by Stephanie Miller on Jan 28, 11:45 AM
No one outside the email team cares about clicks and opens. What they care about it is response - the email channel's contribution to revenue and other business drivers. If we email marketers want to be taken seriously, we have to start measuring our success in succinct business terms.

Take The Oath Of Office
by editor , David Baker on Jan 26, 11:00 AM
As I sat watching President Obama sign his first executive orders, it made me think about the first 100 days of an executive term and how that sets the tone for the whole time as leader. There is a great read by Michael Watkins, "The First 90 Days: Critical Success Strategies for New Leaders at All Levels," that is a must-have for any manager or leader in a new role. Some of the principles in this book are important to people running eCRM and email programs for major corporations.

Email Data Is Your Friend: 4 Deliverability Measures To Increase Revenue
by Stephanie Miller on Jan 23, 3:00 PM
Email marketers do have an arsenal of ammunition at the ready -- it's sitting in our data. Beyond the typical open, click, bounce/delivered and unsubscribe metrics, start to take a look at other data sources: Web analytics, inbox delivery rates, ISP feedback loops and time delays on response, profile data, demographics, social media traffic and the topics covered by citizen media and bloggers. The real power of this data is not at the campaign level, but at the subscriber level. This is the only way to move from batch and blast to a lifecycle email marketing approach -- and earn ...

Let's look at two of the email campaigns the transition team deployed and use them as examples for how all email marketers should be engaging their customers.

Joseph A. Michelli's book, The New Gold Standard, covers the "5 Leadership Principles for Creating a Legendary Customer Experience Courtesy of The Ritz-Carlton Hotel Company." While email inboxes don't have much in common with plush Ritz-Carlton hotel rooms, there are lessons about stellar service that we can use to make our email programs a bit ritzier.

Five Steps for Implementing A Lifecycle Marketing Plan
by Richard Rushing on Jan 19, 3:45 PM
The concept of lifecycle marketing has been around for some time, and most marketers do it to some extent, even if they don't call it "lifecycle marketing," per se. It goes hand-in-hand with segmentation -- and unfortunately, just as with segmentation, we still see a lot of marketers who do not leverage this strategic imperative, or do it poorly. Here are five key steps for making lifecycle marketing work for you, whether you are a beginner, or want to take a step back and evaluate your current program.

Twitter: Email With A 140-Character Limit?
by Loren McDonald on Jan 15, 11:45 AM
Twitter is (pick one): A. The latest fad that will eventually fade away; B. The biggest time suck since Facebook; C. The biggest communications revolution since email. I vote for "C." If you haven't dived into Twitter yet, you should, because your customers, prospects and competitors are tweeting away without you (and maybe even about you). Twitter is a different channel from email, mainly because it's real-time communications, but the two have many similarities that reinforce best communication practices, no matter which channel you use.

Is Caesarstone the Pits?
Pretty much decided that Caesarstone is the way to go and read great review from some of you. But now I am reading the bad reviews (thanks to google) and some threads report major problems with pitting and poor customer service. Seems that the pits are impossible to repair unlike natural stone. Does anyone want to talk me out of Caesarstone or quartz in general?
You really have to qualify internet reviews. Some people are just nuts. Caesarstone has a warranty and a reputation to defend. I think they've got a bit more to lose than a person with a keyboard and an internet connection.
I did one of the first DuPont Zodiaq jobs in my area; about 12K for tops alone. The kids etched the top, tried to hide it with a candle, but DuPont flew a rep out, developed a procedure, flew back again, and we fixed it.
I had Caesarstone Buttermilk for a few months. During install, the fabricators used Bar Keeper's Friend and acetone to clean off the epoxy. It left a dull spot in the resin. They said the sales rep told them to use BKF, and they had never had a problem in the past. With the solid color of the slab and my lighting, it was very noticeable. The fabricator took several hours of training from Caesarstone to learn their buffing-out procedure. He worked on my countertop with various polishing pads and solutions for 2 1/2 hours, which only spread the dull spot. It also chipped on the edge two weeks after install from no apparent abuse. They offered to replace my countertop.
Was I upset? No! I didn't want Caesarstone again because of the lack of quality control.The counter didn't look anything like the sample. One slab was fine, but the other had white thumb-print sized resin blotches all over it. It was not covered under warranty, so I would have been stuck with that ugly slab.
We switched to Pentalquartz because there is a warehouse locally and we could pick out our slabs. We've been happy with it, though we do have a very tiny chip near the sink--felt, but not seen. Chips can be epoxied, just like chips in granite. I'd buy quartz again, but I'd definitely view the slabs first.
Aside from the different color/pattern aesthetics, I concluded that the various engineered quartz products are equivalent for all practical purposes. I assume it's possible to get a slab with a defect from any company, but they're very rare.
I think some of the problems folks describe are caused by fabricators treating engineered quartz like granite, when in fact they're different. For example, seams and other surface blemishes on the top surface of granite can be buffed-out without leaving a noticeable inconsistency, but this is not recommended on engineered quartz because buffing tends to leave a noticeable dull/hazy spot (which is ok on the front edge, but not the top). This is just one example, but the point I'm trying to make is that the fabricator & installer's experience and skill with the material (or lack thereof) is a bigger potential risk than defects in the material itself.
FWIW, we ended up choosing Silestone mostly because it had the best availability in my area, and I can't find anything wrong with it.

I'm very happy with my CS, but I'm only about five months in at this point. Everyday we thank the decision not to use marble or soapstone (based on our usage habits). On the other hand, we are very, very careful with the marble backplash and table. I've had granite too and they are roughly the same (more care with hot pans on quartz, more care with sealer on granite).
The resin globs may be very pattern dependent; not an issue with mine.
We are happy with our Caesarstone, too. We have the Champagne Limestone color. No resin splotches or anything. The only thing I would do differently if I had it to do again is get an eased edge. We have straight edges now, and while the style looks great in our kitchen, it is prone to little dings and chips around the sink. We have epoxied them, and they are not noticeable unless you really look for them.
We're getting Ceasarstone. I'm sorry we'll have to use hot pads or trivets (we always put hot pots on the granite counters in our old house), but other than that, I'm so glad to hear of the good experiences. SAS, we are getting an eased edge - glad to hear that's a good idea.
We've had our Caesarstone Buttermilk countertops for 2.5 years. Unlike the other commenter above, we've been amazed at how great they look and how well they have held up. The only issue we've had is I managed to chip an edge in the center of the sink when I dropped a roasting pan. I was devastated. However a quick call to our installed and they came back patched the spot (for only $150). Looks perfect once again and all is good.
Here is a link that might be useful: My kitchen
I am a fabricator.
The various quartz brands are all made on machines purchased from the same manufacturer so the material is essentially all the same across the brands. That said, some suppliers have better quality control than others. I have fabbed at least 1/2 dozen different quartz surface products and CaesarStone ranks well in terms of the quality of the product.
Overall in quartz the fabricator is even more important than in granite.
These days the biggest watch-out for quartz is the colors where the manufacturer is trying to mimic the movement in natural stone. Those colors can have "blobs" of resin with no color that looks like gobs of mucus in the slab. Worse yet, the manufacturers don't seem to consider those blobs defects so they don't repond to complaints.
I've had CS chocolate truffle for 3 years now and it's fine. I have one mini chip in it that you can't see, but can feel if you pay a lot of attention. This was a counter made with recycled glass and it's the glass that chipped, not the quartz. I've been very happy with it and have put hot pots and cookie sheets on it, but only briefly until I could get a rack. But it has not affected the surface at all.
I have cs organic white 3 years and love it. I have had an occasional stain but soft scrub gel takes it right out. I will be getting Piatra gray for my Florida kitchen renovation next month. I keep a cutting board or towel to place anything hot. Not worth taking a chance.
I have teeny tiny little, what looks like, paint splatters on my Raven but honestly they don't bother me anymore and no one but me would even really notice (they are THAT tiny. Call me eagle eyes :)) And I will be getting Raven again.
@oldryder - any tips for finding/identifying a good fabricator? Questions to ask, etc?
@marissa -OT but any pics of your Org White? I am thinking of using this in my guest bath. (You can send via my email link if necessary)
I also have Raven and my eagle eye has noticed pin prick size spots, randomly here and there: over time they have almost disappeared, I imagine they've darkened, when new those spots were white. This is my 2nd kitchen with CS and I love the slick look I needed and wanted.
I wipe my counters often and I have to admit the CS is unforgiving because of the slick glossy look and unlike a spotted granite that can hide marks, the CS does not.
I would still use it again in a heartbeat.
marissa16, we're using Organic White too with lower cabinets that are a stone color (greyish-tannish). We're going to use the leftovers from the kitchen slabs for the bathrooms. Is your backsplash Organic White, too -- if it is, could you send me a picture?
BlackChamois, because of the holidays, my countertops probably won't go in until early January -- I hope it can happen sooner, but it isn't likely (appliances and cabinets will be delivered in early December, then installation, then we bump up against Christmas). I'll post pix when it's done though!
I will try and upload some kitchen pics with the organic white. Apologize, not the best pics. I have a blue glass tile backsplash to warm up the cabinet/countertop which would have otherwise been too cold. Will upload one at a time.
marissa, I know this is off-topic (sorry OP) but I have to ask -- how long is your island, and what is the lighting/does it adequately illuminate the island for prep work? Our island will be 10 x 3, which looks to be about the same size as yours. (I'm getting the same microwave, which will go in the island too)
Sjhockeyfan, my island is a little smaller 96" x 27". I have 3 hanging lights that spotlight well but don't use them often because I have 3 lights in the ceiling on either side of the island and they give more than enough light.
I can try and take a picture with the pendants alone so you can see.
And this is just my overheads. Since I have a narrow kitchen, the overheads really are all I need but aesthetically and sometimes for mood, I will use the pendants. Sorry both cats came into that last one.
And my final homage to organic white where it all started. I think you can see the faint pattern in this picture. Ok. I am done. But I would have no second thoughts about caesarstone. I prefer a rounded look so have not had any chipping issues. Will post the Pietra gray when my other kitchen is done hopefully in January.
Birch Point, no ones says you can't put hot things on quartz or granite and I am sure many people do. I don't feel a need to do that and my own comfort zone is to use a trivet or a towel on the counter. I don't think twice and it is just what I do. I would do the same with granite. I suspect many people feel the same way.
Well, Caesarstone says you can't put hot things on their product. Read the warranty. It can be damaged by thermal shock, and, being a resined product, it can scorch. But it'd probably take more than just putting a hot dish down briefly.
For more information, here is a recent discussion about putting hot things on granite. Granite too has been known to crack from thermal shock.
Here is a link that might be useful: recent thread
I would never put hot things (right off a burner or just out of the oven) on any counter material. It either goes onto an unoccupied (not hot) burner on the stove or a cutting board. I've never run out of available space to do that. The bottoms of pans coming off a gas stove can have crud on them. My CS counters get COLD in the winter. It wouldn't do a glass baking pan any good to land straight on that anyway.

Westside Story – Comply or Die
Every day we are bombarded with false stories of police brutality and excessive force. Watch out America, all of this broad brush stroke discriminatory police bashing may bring us unintended consequences.

A recent article in The Suburban Times informed us of the City of Dupont's desire to explore the possibility of providing the city with bus service.

Westside Story – 811 Call Before You Dig
Our Federally mandated 811 – Call Before You Dig program is an excellent idea with one major flaw. Call Before You Dig employees lack good judgement and common sense. While this may seem like a bold, opinionated and condemnatory statement, all you have to do is look around at their graffiti handiwork to see evidence confirming my point. It is like Call Before You Dig employees have to earn low scores on a common sense / intelligence test before being selected for the job. [Read more…]

The way I see it, if I live to be age 100, I have a little over 28 years to become an accomplished writer. So I am reading books on writing and taking college courses to become a better writer.

PDX Dumpster Divers!
Anybody here from the Portland area?
Im looking for some people to go dumpster diving with.
Im fairly new and am hoping to meet-up with some veterans.
Please email so we can go on a diving adverture!
I'm not in the portland area (wish I was), but I am cying of curiosity as to why this topic thread has stayed at the top of the forum list without any responses--its been here for a while---just super curious, is there a secret to be learned here?
Like ellieandethansmom, I've noticed this phenomenon. An unanswered post will sit at the top of the queu while later posts (with responses) stay below. Perhaps it's a built-in mechanism to draw peoples' attention to the unanswered post? Don't know, but it definitely happens, on this and other forums.
Meanwhile, the more puzzling (to me) question at this point is: Are there really NO Portland dumpster divers??? Hope you've found some kindred souls by now, obtainer.
:-) Barbara
Best thing to do is buy an old rag-bag pickup, get some old raggy clothes, a pair of those white work gloves, don't wash yer face fer a couple days. then go on out and dive by yer-self. Heck, you don't want to have to share yer finds with somebody else, do ya? And, nobody will mess with ya, because they'll think you are as poor as they are!
A bit of advice--go out to Yuppie-ville each day, observe what day is garbage day in each section, then, either go out later in the evening before pickup, or get up with the sun, and you'll beat the G-man!
With the number of cretins cruising, looking to grab kids, i always stop and explain what i'm doing, cruising their neighborhood! I'm the Recycle Man!
by: rustyj
p.s.: Be sure diving is legal in the areas where you go to pick up stuff!
p.p.s. And, don't pick up a lawn mower if it is warm and setting alongside the garbage can! I did, and found out the next week that the owner was using a push mower, and dumping the clippings into a garbage can setting out along the curb! On the night before garbage pickup! OOOOPPPS!

State Sen. Vincent Hughes has thrown his support behind Gov. Tom Wolf's embattled nominee to lead the Pennsylvania State Police.
Hughes endorsed Marcus Brown Wednesday, after reports that Brown had received a racist letter opposing his candidacy for the job. Opponents have complained that, as acting director of the agency, Brown has worn the state police uniform even though he didn't graduate from the agency's academy. Brown's predecessor typically wore a suit on the job. Read more »

Use Compass, SASS, LESS and CoffeeScript (NEW) to develop your themes and minify your stylesheets and JavaScript simply by installing AssetsMinify.
How many times have you wished to minify in a clean way all the stylesheets and scripts of a WordPress website?
AssetsMinify takes every CSS and JS asset included using
wp_enqueue_style() and
wp_enqueue_script() and Merges+Minifies them.
You can also use AssetsMinify to create your WP theme using Compass / SASS / LESS without configuring any
config.rb or that kind of stuff.
AssetsMinify is based on Assetic library.
This plugin has been tested up to WordPress 3.6 beta.
Now you can also include your CoffeeScript directly using wp_enqueue_script:
wp_enqueue_script( 'my-cs', get_template_directory_uri() . '/coffee/header.coffee', array(), '1.0' );
Although it is not a best practice you can define resources inclusions basing on the WordPress page just like this
if ( is_page( 2 ) ) { wp_enqueue_style( 'stylesheet-name' ); }.
Requires: 3.3 or higher
Compatible up to: 4.0.1
Last Updated: 2014-11-2
Active Installs: 800+
1 of 4 support threads in the last two months have been resolved.

IPST INFOCENTRE Subversion Version Control System Dave Heppenstall 4 April 2006 IPST S U B V E R S I O N V E R S I O N C O N T R O L Introduction to Subversion Subversion is a version control system which endeavors to replace CVS. It is compatible with Linux, Unix, Solaris and Windows. In the present, IPST makes use of an FTP Server as a central storage facility. This facility houses installation packages, configuration files and product documentation for a variety of projects and applications. However, allowing anyone to add files to the FTP Server includes the risk that important files may be overwritten. An innocent file upgrade may destroy an important earlier version of an application on which current development is dependant. However, allowing no user to have management access to the server would mean that a single administrator would be responsible for the contents of the server. This one person would need to devote additional time and energy to this project and without this person, additions or changes to the server's contents would be impossible. It would seem that having neither no one nor everyone in charge is the answer; quite the predicament. The solution? Allow anyone and everyone to have administrative access to a central repository of data and packages using a Subversion application and file system. Subversion is a multi- platform, open-source application which endeavors to be a "compelling replacement for CVS in the open source community." With Subversion's version control system, no data is lost when files are overwritten. Subversion's unique file system is essentially a time-machine, allowing anyone to travel back in time to view the repository in an earlier state. Anyone can obtain the previous versions of the files by accessing the repository during an earlier revision; including files which have been deleted. In addition, detailed logging of every change to the repository makes the process even easier. This manual describes the day to day operational procedures for this application within the context of development in IPST at Rogers Communications Inc. There are many additional resources you may use for reference. This guide assumes Subversion v1.2.3. Subversion clients and servers run on any operating system that the Apache httpd server runs on: Windows, Linux, all flavours of BSD, Mac OS X, Netware, and others. For more information about the Subversion open-source project, visit: http://subversion.tigris.org/. Quick start! Visit the new IPST InfoCentre! Go to: http://172.30.6.137/ 1 1 Installation If you will access repositories entirely over the internet through a web browser, you do not need to install anything! However, if you want to access repositories from a server through the command line client (CLIent), the following packages must be installed for the Subversion client/server to execute on Solaris systems: apache-2.0.55-sol9-sparc-local db-4.2.52.NC-sol9-sparc-local expat-1.95.5-sol9-sparc-local gcc-3.3.2-sol9-sparc-local gdbm-1.8.3-sol9-sparc-local libiconv-1.8-sol9-sparc-local libxml2-2.6.16-sol9-sparc-local openssl-0.9.8a-sol9-sparc-local subversion-1.2.3-sol9-sparc-local zlib-1.2.3-sol9-sparc-local You do not need to install any of these packages if you will not be using the command line interface client (CLIent). There are web-based and GUI applications you can use for repository access. This manual will document both. 2 Operations NOTE: You will be required to enter a RADIUS username and password for all operations. Repository Administration 2.1 Creating a Repository Web Client: Browse to the Repository Index on http://172.30.6.137/, enter the name of your new repository and click "Create Repository." The directory structure, permissions and initial logging is created for you. CLIent: SSH into VPNREG1 (172.30.6.137) and navigate to /opt/svn/. Enter the following: $ svnadmin create <name of repository> $ chown daemon:daemon <name of repository> The Apache web server runs as user daemon. Ensuring that the repository is owned by the same user that apache runs under will prevent any potential access problems for the Web client. 2 NOTE: The Web Client's interface will automatically load in the pre-defined conventional directory structure for a repository. This structure is as follows: /bin Binaries /bin/third-party Binaries supplied by external providers /doc Documentation / Configuration /pkg Packages /pkg/third-party Packages supplied by external providers /trunk Source code It is recommended that these standards are followed in order to allow all users to find any data in any repository with ease. Basic Operating Procedure 2.2 Check Repository and Test Connection Test your client's ability to contact the host and the stored repository within. Web Client: Just navigate to the repository index and see if the repository is present. CLIent: $svn info http://172.30.6.137/svn/<repository> --username <user> A successful test looks something like this: # svn info http://172.30.6.137/svn/test --username david.h Authentication realm: <http://172.30.6.137:80> Direct SVN acccess (read/write). Enter RADIUS credentials. Password for 'david.h': Path: test URL: http://172.30.6.137/svn/test Repository Root: http://172.30.6.137/svn/test Repository UUID: 1d269246-a60e-0410-936c-aa6644464b12 Revision: 2 Node Kind: directory Last Changed Author: david.h Last Changed Rev: 2 Last Changed Date: 2006-03-21 13:07:01 -0500 (Tue, 21 Mar 2006) Once you have entered your username and password for RADIUS, your credentials will be cached so you do not need to enter it again. The --username switch will be omitted from here on. 2.3 View Contents of a Repository Web Cient: At this point, you can begin to discover how ViewVC dynamic html files display a Repository through any web browser. In a web browser, go to the url for the IPST InfoCentre, login with your RADIUS login, click "Repository Index" and navigate to your repository. CLIent: Perform the following… $svn list [-v|-r<rev>|-R] http://172.30.6.137/svn/<repository>{/path/} -v List contents with verbose output -r Display the contents as they appeared at the revision number specified -R List contents recursively To see all commands, type svn help list. 3 A successful list looks something like this: # svn list -v http://172.30.6.137/svn/subversion/ 20 root Mar 20 16:17 bin/ 28 david.h Mar 21 13:53 doc/ 1 root Mar 09 11:01 pkg/ 1 root 115 Mar 09 11:01 subversion.txt 21 root Mar 20 16:21 trunk/ 2.4 Add Files and Create Directories Web Cient: Using the web interface, there are graphical elements which allow you to upload files and create new directories. Directories: The application will prevent you from creating directories which already exist or have the same name as an existing file. Files: When you upload a file, it is added normally to the repository. However, if a file of the same name already exists in the current directory, it will be uploaded as a revised copy of the file. If the files are identical, no action will be taken. CLIent: You can create directories and add files to repositories without having to create a local working copy. Directories: $ svn mkdir http://172.30.6.137/svn/<repository>{/path/} Files: $ svn import <path/to/file(s)>/ http://172.30.6.137/svn/<repository>{/path/}{filename} Subversion expects the -m switch for all imports and entering some kind of information into the log is required. It was omitted above for simplicity, but you are still required to enter something for the log. NOTE: You are not permitted to upload a file of the same name. If you want to update a file in the repository, use the web interface instructions as above, or follow the procedure outlined in 2.5. Each successful import action promotes the revision number for all files in the entire repository. One may at first think this is strange because all files untouched since the last import would intuitively stay the same revision index. However, Subversion encourages revision numbers to be treated as a time index; referring to each file's state at the time of an action on the repository. This does indeed imply that a file at revision 1 would still be identical at revision 200 if the only changes to the repository are the addition of files. 2.5 Download Files and Creating Working Copies Web Cient: Using the web interface, you can use the "Download" links to download individual copies of files at any revision you like. This action is identical to the export functionality described below for the CLIent. It is not possible to create working copies from the web interface. CLIent: When downloading files directly from the repository, Subversion assumes you want the most recent and up-to-date copy. However, remember that older versions of files have not been lost or overwritten. $ svn export svn://172.30.6.137/svn/<repository>/<path> {-r <revision of file>} If you do not include the –r switch, Subversion downloads the newest file. Otherwise, the file(s) matching the provided revision number are downloaded. 4 In a Subversion repository, no data is lost when files (binary and/or ASCII) are changed or overwritten because Subversion was deliberately designed to never lose information. Subversion revisions are immutable data trees which build upon one another. For the following example, consider uploading a newer version of an application package to the repository. First, you need to create a local workspace containing a Subversion file system. This ensures that Subversion can keep track of which files have changed, when and how. This is accomplished with the following: $ svn checkout svn://172.30.6.137/svn/<repository></path> <local directory/> This will download the file(s) and their histories in the repository at the path provided into a local directory (which will be created if nonexistent) which is known as the "working copy." Although the directory appears to be a normal directory, Subversion metadata is stored in hidden directories. Second, make your changes. This could involve anything from adding text to a readme file or simply overwriting a binary file. NOTE: While you can edit your files with whatever tool you like, you shouldn't change the structure of your working copy without letting Subversion know what you're doing. Use the svn copy, svn delete, and svn move commands to change the structure of your working copy, and use the svn add command to place new files and directories under version control. Thirdly, verify that changes you have made have been correctly detected by Subversion. From within your working copy, execute the following: $ svn status If desired, you can add a -v switch for verbose output. Finally, commit your changes to the repository. Once again, Subversion insists upon some text to append to the logs to explain your changes. $ svn commit -m "Insert your comment here." 5

Historical Traveler Reviews Clinton Hotel South Beach Miami Beach
A wonderful Boutique hotel!!
- Great Location - Superb Service (Thanks Robin..) - Fantastic design and if you are into details, you will love this hotel - The bathrooms are AWSOME
Will NOT be staying here again
On the plus side:
This hotel has a good atmosphere that matches the feel of South Beach.
The bathroom decor was very nice. The location (in my opinion) is good because it is out of the Ocean Dr madness, yet you can walk everywhere easily.
On the negative side:
Our balcony room (for which we paid a premium) was blasted with Latin music until 3 or 4 AM nightly. This is because it overlooked the (very tiny) pool and bar/restaurant. If you want to sleep, do NOT request a balcony room because all of them suffer from the noise. Also, I hated opening the balcony door to see restaurant customers and other hotel guests staring in my face (in rather close vicinity). Our room was also next to part of the kitchen which was very loud. As I read in another review, the shower door was missing from the shower. There had clearly been a sliding door on a track there at some point. Perhaps it was seen as a safety hazard, but if you ask me, there is STILL a safety hazard because the water from the shower splashes out (through the space with no door) onto the faux granite floor - which makes for a slippery ride.
I had read (on Travelocity) that they had down comforters. The comforter was clearly not down (a synthetic down?- I don't really know.)
And now for the REAL reason I will not be staying at The Clinton Hotel again:
When we checked in as guests, the valet parked our car. We noticed the sign out front that said the valet was independently operated by another company. The front desk did not mention anything about the valet service. So each night we would take the car out, we would pay the valet the daily fee ($16 + tip), which they quoted to us. Upon checkout I was presented with a bill for 4 days of parking. I told the front desk clerk that we had only used the valet for 3 days (not 4 - we parked in a public garage the last night), and that we had already paid the valet the parking fees. The clerk said, "How do I know you paid the valet? Should I just believe every guest who tells me they paid the valet?" At this point I became angry because I was being accused of lying. I told him that for the record we only parked there 3 nights (not 4), at which point he actually sent the valet to check to see if we had parked there the previous night!! I then told the clerk that if he did charge the parking fees, for which I had already paid, to my credit card, I would dispute the charges. His response was, "Go ahead." He then went to the back room and appeared with a manager - to whom I related the same story. He asked me to try to identify exactly which valet employees had accepted our money. The morning shift was not the same as the evening shift so I said none of these. He then asked me what color my parking tag was - evidently yellow means you are a hotel guest, while blue means non-guest. It seems guests are charged by the hotel, and non-guests are charged by the valet. We had a yellow parking tag - so we were clearly guests. However, the valet accepted our money as if we were non-guests. At this point the manager said that we wouldn't be charged. The front desk attendent violated many principles of Customer Service 101 - mainly don't accuse the customer of lying. I paid over $800 for the room, why would I lie to avoid a $48 parking bill. It was just plain insulting and wrong!!!!! And for this reason The Clinton Hotel will never again have my patronage.
I LOVED this hotel!!!
I just returned from my first trip to south beach, and I must admit, I was a little scared going down there how the hotel would be. From reading online, I saw so many hotel horror stories, I didn't know what to expect. I chose this hotel based on it being new, simply because I am a neat freak, and I cannot STAND old and dirty places. Well, this hotel was AWESOME! From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty, car doors open, bags taken to our rooms and car whisked away by the valet (yes, they do charge, and it's $16 per day with unlimited in and out privledges) which actually was a steal, try finding a good parking spot in south beach for under that price-not gonna happen. The hotel lobby is really nothing too overlyfabulous, but clean and cute decor. Yes, the elevator is dark, it's only lit by a purple neon light, and yes..the hallways are dark as well but in my opinion this added to the uniqueness of a hotel you could only find in south beach. For the person who was scared of the dark, well I'm not sure what to tell you, i guess this isn't the place for you, but please be assured that during my stay I did not see any shady characters or funny business going on.
Now, lets go into the room.. WOW. It was stark white, white duvet cover that sucked me in and didn't want to let me out in the morning, a large window with white wooden corded shades, cool cd player, cool looking tv (mounted in the corner of the ceiling). Then we go into the bathroom....it's all granite-looking (it was faux granite, but really nice all the same), all glass enclosed shower that could fit probably 5 people at once. The bathroom sink was raised up on the counter, and there was a window to the bedroom so you could sit on the toilet and watch tv if you really wanted to (okay, I admit.. I did). The only thing I found strange in the bathroom was there was no shower door. I wasn't sure if it was supposed to be this way or not, but it didn't bother me much. I did find that the hot shower water took a little while to heat up (not in the sink however), but that was the only flaw.
Upon going downstairs to do some shopping, we were asked how we liked the room, and if everything was okay, and told if we needed anything to please let them know. Okay, we're not royalty here, we're just regular folks from Michigan, and I thought this was pretty darn nice of them.
Moving along, this hotel had a swanky little asian restaurant on site, but we did not eat there, as there was so much to see in other places.
There are 2 possible downfalls to this hotel, that may or may not bother you. One was that it was not directly on Ocean Drive. It is located on Washington 2 streets up from Ocean Drive. It was just a quick walk to go everywhere, and the only time we took our car was to hit the mall which was about 45 minutes away. This could be a good thing however, because it was pretty quiet, and our room was a street side room. The other possible downfall was that the valet seemed like it went to Cuba to get our car for us. We waited for what seemed like about 15minutes, but maybe i was being too antsy. Otherwise, I LOVED this hotel, it was clean and cute and new, and I would stay here again in a heartbeat.
The best hotel I've ever stayed in
Everything at this hotel is awesome. From the attentive valet parking staff out in front of the hotel (which costs $15) to the actual room itself, this is a hotel that you could check into and never want to check out! The hotel was recently remodeled, and they spared no expense. Everything is done in typical Florida art deco fashion, very modern, clean, and luxurious.
The beds in the hotel room are just as comfortable as my $1,000 pillow top bed that I have at home. The bedding, pillows, etc are all clean, fresh, fluffy, and comfortable. The bathroom in the room is TOTALLY AWESOME, I loved the stone tile floor, and shower stall, as well as the above counter sink basin that you would normally only see in a rich person's house. The only complaint I had about the bathroom is the water pressure was way too low in the shower, and the door did not latch shut.
My only complaint about the room is that our room did not have high speed internet access. Online it says that they do have high speed access, but we later found out that it's only available in "select rooms". I thought this was really lame - every guest should have the oportunity to get online at high speed, but Miami is such a fun place to stay, we actually didn't miss having the internet, we enjoyed the vacation and time away from the computer!
Whenever I am in South Beach I will ALWAYS stay at the Clinton Hotel.
The only time I will not stay there is if they are too full and don't have any discount rooms available (their rates go as high as 500 dollars during the peak times, which is way too rich for my blood).
Buggy experience
What can I say? I got hung up on when I called room service...a dirty napkin rolled around my silverware. Did I mention I am a woman and the hotel hallways are extremely dark? But worst of all when I returned from a dinner meeting my room was infested with not only bugs but larvae...even in the bed. I got a new room but in the morning when I told the front desk I had forgotten my cell phone charger in my haste to pack and get out of my bug infested room...I was questioned as to why I would have done that. I was then sent up to the room to get it and found the bugs were still there!
A very nice surprise!
I did a lot of research and read a lot of reviews before selecting the Clinton Hotel South Beach. I am very very picky about where I stay on vacation and I'm one of those people who always stay at the chain/brand name hotels. I must feel safe, the rooms must be exceptionally clean, the staff must be friendly, and the location has to be perfect. I took a chance and stayed at the independently owned Clinton Hotel and it lived up in each category. The size of our room was that of a normal hotel or even slightly larger. The bathroom was nice and large as well.
The beds were very comfortable and the down comforter and 300 ct sheets were a very nice touch. If you are into a traditional type decor then you will hate it b/c it is far from it. The location was perfect. Two blocks from the beach but still in the heart of everything. The restaurant, Pao, that's located in the hotel, is very nice and food was pretty good too. The only negative thing I would say about the hotel is that their drinks in the restaurant and bar were overpriced and light on the liquor but HEY you're in SoBe there are plenty of places to get great drinks. I will definitely stay here again!
Great hotel !
Clean, clean, clean. Branding spankin' new everything. Staff extremely helpful, very accomodating (late checkout ok'd for free). Room small but not SoBe small, very well maintained. Last year I stayed at the Chelsea -- it was not all that...
Excellent Front Desk Staff
The hotel was brand new and very clean. The beds/linens were wonderful.
The front desk staff was wonderful and helpful. This hotel would serve the corporate community well, it doesn't cater to the spring break type at all and therefore it is very quiet, unlike a lot of hotels in southbeach. It's a great hotel, but I will say the following: the windows only opened an inch in the rooms, the maid was incompetent and didn't restock or clean properly to include tp and her timing was awful, she would show up at 5pm, the pool was more like a jacuzzi and the rooms were a little small. But again, the hotel and staff in general were very good. I would personally prefer staying on one of the beach properties near the delano next time.
Great boutique hotel two blocks off Ocean Drive
The Clinton Hotel in South Beach is in a great location just two blocks off of Ocean Drive in South Beach. It's got a very good asian inspired restaurant and well appointed (if somewhat small) rooms. Everything was very reasonably priced and the staff was very helpful. This isn't your average "corporate" hotel, but then again why would you want to stay in a generic corporate hotel when you're staying in South Beach? It's got character and that's what makes it special.
Far from great...and raunchy
The best word to describe this hotel is "scuzzy" This will make sense to you after you check in, proceed to your room, and note the shadowfigurine of a playgirl which appears on each guest room. Believe me, this hotel is far from great, and ityou get an "eerie" feeling while staying there,as if there is "something else" going on in the hotel..

... said that I was his hero. Those guys made my day.
The hostel was kind of strange, I had been looking forward to meeting some people and easing some of the lonely, but whereas all other hostels I had been in were in one big building with communal areas, this place was individual rooms and dorms off outside corridors just like a motel. It was a bit antisocial really. The staff were lovely and helpful though, I will definitely give it that. On my last night when I was busy packing ...

Great music player, queue needs some work
I loved this music player app the minute I downloaded it. Visually it's great. And it has a smooth interface to match. However the queue needs work. When playing a song chosen from a playlist, adding to queue adds to the bottom of the playlist instead of generating a "up next" iTunes kind of feel. Which is what many of us users want. "Play next" works great. Also some times queue causes a pause or a skip to a completely different song. Correct these.
Great interface.
The update fixed a crash I was seeing. Great again.
A few tweaks I'd like to see, but overall this is much better than the stock app. This is the best alternative music player on iOS. Groove is good, but mostly for shuffling through your music. If you know what you want to play (and what you want to keep on your phone) use this app.
Love the app but
One little thing that bothers me is in my purchases playlist. It not only shows the songs I've purchased but also any books I've purchased as well. If I were to click on a song, it picks a random one from my whole music library.
