Restaurant having a bad spell
TROY — Trader Ed's, a nautical-themed pub on Lansingburgh's 2nd Avenue, is one of my favorite neighborhood watering holes in Troy (you can't leave out Jose Malone's and Brown's Brewing). The drinks are good and fairly priced, the service friendly and thorough, the food offerings broad and usually very well made. The spelling in its […] [Read More]

P.F. Chang's expands bar menu food and drink

Ode to one wild Mother
The New York Times has long been the benchmark for newspaper obituary stories.

A reproduction of "Touching Hands". Two beautiful men at odds, yet not willing to sever all connections. Though turned back to back, they maintain an intimate, though slight, touch.
For all the ages of man there have been men who, for whatever reason, have preferred the particular eroticism which is only available between men. This is an effort to capture some of that glory.
I love this image !!
superb photo and love the concept. oh and wonderful body!
great model and photography.

Separate Into Roanoke Island and Lost Colony Articles?[edit]
I think that Roanoke Island and the Lost Colony deserve their own separate articles, and I am really surprised that I am the first to suggest it. I suggest converting this article into the Lost Colony article and creating a new, more general Roanoke Island article that is not quite as dominated by the Lost Colony's history as is this one. Certainly, the Lost Colony is the most important part of the island's history by far, but there should more non-Lost Colony information about the island. Bjeversole 10:39, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
- Since there hasn't been any other commentary, I'd say go for it. I'd suggest Roanoke Colony as a more specific name than Lost Colony. Kmusser 19:11, 9 February 2007 (UTC)
- I have split the articles as per above. I think there is not enough current information in the resulting one about Roanoke Island itself, and now, there is certainly more room for it. Vaoverland 07:24, 8 March 2007 (UTC)
The comment about Lee Miller's theory isn't correct.
- At least twowhat it was like in NC 800 years ago, but it seems unlikely. Can anybody source this or at least explain it? [[User:Starblind|Andrew Řfor this particular claim, but tree rings can be used to determine weather patterns. -- JLaTondre 23:14, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
- Very interesting. That might be it. Andrew Lenahan - Starblind 16:09, 26 December 2005 (UTC)
Is this formatted correctly? It seems a bit off to me.
Croatan Indians - Croatian[edit]
The story of Croatan Indians having European ancestors has been told many times. Its also been said that they could well be related to that county in Europe called Croatia. Croatan Indinas should have a page on the web where all information for /against can be viewed.
Please hit search Croatan Indians Croatian and you should come up with some intersting reading
- There was no "Tribe" known as Croatan, though there was a "village" by that name of the Tuscarora Nation in North Carolina at that time. The "tribe" of Croatan was fabricated by Hamilton McMillan in 1885, attempting to cover-up the fact that atleast some of the colonists had been taken in by Tuscarora. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Lumbee
Also, The "Hatteras Tribe" was originally "Kateras", which was a Tuscarora village. Lederer visited this village in 1670. http://www.skarorehkatenuakanation.org/TuscaroraChronology.html --Roskerah 06:18, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
I think that EVERYONE should read the paragraph with the heading of "Abandonment of Colony". Someone OBVIOUSLY had TOO much time on their hands. I would like to edit it, but I do not know EXACTLY what belongs there.
"...the fleet was closer to England than Virginia..."[edit]
From the article: "White took this to mean that they had moved to Croatoan Island, but he was unable to conduct a search; a hurricane hit the Outer Banks and blew his fleet out to sea. By the time the storm abated, the fleet was closer to England than Virginia. The fleet, running low on provisions, returned to England."
While the notion of a hurricane blowing ships out to sea is not that impossible-sounding, the sentence "by the time the storm abated, the fleet was closer to England than Virginia" is. A hurricane would pass a place in 2 days at the absolute longest. How can a ship cross half the Atlantic or more (i.e. 3000 km or more) in two days? --Bowlhover 00:06, 14 March 2006 (UTC)
Storm of the Century[edit]
is why i thought i'd check this out.. an AMAZING little movie Lions Gate has a couple good ones too. Romans 2:12-15 we all know of GOOD and EVIL - can sense it and we all have brains... eyes.. and ears.. so maybe we should look farther.
Amadas and Barlowe[edit]
Shouldn't there be an article on Philip Amadas and Arthur Barlowe? If not Barlowe, at least Philip Amadas, considering we know slightly more about him than Barlowe. Or does this belong in (Project North Carolina)?184.108.40.206 20:51, 31 October 2006 (UTC)
List of Early Roanoke Island Immigrants[edit]
Why isnt there a link to this list or where is it ?? see lost-colony.com or contact ? email@example.com
Early Trade with Americas[edit]
America BC details 3000 years of early (2500 BC to 500 AD) trade with America's by Phoenicians, Egyptians, Libyans, Basque and early Irish via the 10s of 1000s of writings they left on rocks esp up and down eastern US seaboard but also inland to great lakes and p the Mississippi etc and in the west in nevada etc...
Why is "Go Japan!!!' in the middle of the 1st sentence of the 2nd pp?[edit]
I tried editing it, but can't find it in the page pulled up for edit. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 188.8.131.52 (talk) 18:27, 7 February 2007 (UTC).
-- Stupid kids can't even spell "Crocodile" Brance 15:03, 22 May 2007 (UTC)Brian
More Vandalism[edit]
-- The third paragraph under "The Lost Colony" needs some attention. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 18.104.22.168 (talk) 22:37, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
I am removing that paragraph. The same information can be found in the preceeding paragraph. 18.104.22.168 (talk) 17:16, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
3rd voyage: There were 17 women, 11 children and 87 men were brought on the voyage and Raleigh's daughter was pregnant!—Preceding unsigned comment added by 184.108.40.206 (talk • contribs)
And still more Vandalism[edit]
There seems to have been quite of activity editing this Wiki article today (4/17/2008). Someone has added false and rather offensive remarks to the article, which I am unable to remove at this time due to Wiki intermediate edit restrictions. The offensive text is copied below and italicized. If anyone spots this, please correct accordingly. Thank you.
Roanoke and Raleigh's Mistake
Main article: Roanoke Colony Roanoke Island was the site of the 16th century Roanoke Colony, the first English colony in the New World in what was then called Virginia, in honor of England's ruling monarch, Queen Elizabeth I. There were two major groups of settlers who attempted to establish a permanent settlement at Roanoke Island, and each failed.
The whore he brought home that mysterious night of the dissapearence brainwashed him and made him rape EVERYONE!!! Turns out he had aids, and everyone died. Too bad.
Roanoke NC?[edit]
Can Roanoke be conssidered in North Carolina? Or is it conssidered Virginia? A 4th grader named Evan Perry
Roanoke NC?[edit]
Can Roanoke be conssidered in North Carolina? Or is it conssidered Virginia? A 4th grader named Evan Perry —Preceding unsigned comment added by 126.96.36.199 (talk) 20:11, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
- Excellent question. In North Carolina by the boundaries that appeared later, but definitely Virginia during the time of the Lost Colony when the whole area was known as Virginia. The name Virginia first appeared here in 1584. The name Carolina did not appear here until 1629.DLinth (talk) 22:35, 25 December 2008 (UTC)
ends abruptly?[edit]
Anyone else think this article ends abruptly? I'm sure there's a lot more to say about the Island after the Civil War. A good start would be talking about how the Freedman Colony eventually dissolved. What about present-day Manteo? Thanks. --Omarcheeseboro (talk) 19:59, 13 November 2008 (UTC)
I know that comment is more than four years old but I agree as a native resident of the Island. --220.127.116.11 (talk) 22:04, 3 January 2013 (UTC)
Use of "Citation needed"[edit]
I have added citations to Lawson where the need was indicated - but am a little baffled as to why an editor would either reference the work in the body text (or see the plainly evident reference), but not actually give the reference a formal citation and use the "cn" tag instead. <rant>If the work is already referenced in the body text, how hard is it to look up the reference and cite it bibliographically? The full content and bibliographic info for the Lawson history in particular is (are) not at all difficult to find online (although there are several editions in print).</rant> Hipgnostic (talk) 19:57, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Yep. Good example is Rival Schools
have you played the naruto game in japanese ??
Smash Bros. melee is my favorite fighting game, followed by Jump Superstars and Soul Calibur.
You're not very skilled if you get beaten by Link. He's definatly a low tier character when you play competitively.Originally Posted by Crazytype
Link is the greatest!!! and he can be fairly hard to beat....and Link has his weak points too...BUT now I definatly think Super Smash Brothers is better...more to do on it :P and I also liked Street Fighter some too...Originally Posted by Matrias

K O F!! the manga isnt bad too
street fighter 2, we should try to get the K O F manga on this site, i think it would make a good addition
well :P
Tekken 5: great game, it may be the best fighting game this year, if soul caliber 3 not doing something about it :P
KOF series: ASS KICKIN GAMES, YOU MOST PLAY THEM!!!
Street fighter series: the first fighting game after final fight i played
Dead or alive(1,3 soon 4): the first was the first game i played on the PS, and also SUPERB
Samurai showdown: i love it, a great series
blame the frame and gettin shame
For 3d, I gotta say that Naruto: Gekitou Ninja Taisen 3 can keep me playing nonstop for 24+ hours lol. But I can't forget KOF Maximum Impact!
For 2d, hehe without a doubt, the KOF series (with 99, 2000, 2003 and neowave being my favorites). KOF XI is coming out soon (or it might be out now?) and I'm totally looking forward to it.
I'll also keep an eye out for Hokuto no Ken (fist of the north star) Atomiswave (guilty gear engine), because I'm sure that once this game is released, I'll build a shrine for it and worship the damn thing.
Melty Blood Re-Act, Eternal Fighter Zero, CvS2, Pocket Fighter, and SFZ3. I've yet to play Act Cadenza ... and, this may be a long shot, but what would be the chances of me finding a download for it? I know it's an exclusive arcade game, but has anyone made a ROM and emulator for it?
Haha, yeah, I just don't know anything about that.
Edit: Ah, wait a sec, best fighting game ever? .. Meh, I just listed favorites, my bad. :P
There isn´t a SNK vs Capcom 2, just the other way around.
@ Foolyrain
I think what your doing is wrong,
King of Fighters 2001 sucked
Tekken 4 sucked
Samurai Showdown/Spirit 5 sucked
Best 3D Fighting Game: Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution far ahead of them all.
Best 2D Fighting Game: Street Fighter III 3rd Strike, Garou (Fatal Fury) Mark of the wolves, Last Blade 2, Guilty Gear XX Reload/Isuka, King of Fighters 2002 and King of Fighters 98 and SSF 2Turbo for Oldschool gamer.

To be clear, I did not ask for a favorable remembrance of Mr. Helms. Exit the straw-man.
Jmcclure,Racists and homophobes should not be remembered favorably.
As a student at the Helms School Liberty University, I found your last analysis on Mr. Helms to be either selectively laconic, disproportionate, or both. Thus far, the only omission you regret is one which faults Mr. Helms. What of those omissions that do not?
Actually, you did mention it. From your blog post on the 4th:"When Bill Clinton nominated an openly homosexual woman as assistant secretary at the Department of Housing and Urban Development in 1993, Mr Helms recoiled. "I'm not going to put a lesbian in a position like that," he said. "If you want to call me a bigot, fine." He was a bigot."That was 5 days ago. Why such a rush to tear the man down now that he's dead? Surely, he wasn't a man of great class, but you've demonstrated precious little class of your own in bashing a man now that he's gone.
Hopefully last of overt a-holes. Much to our discredit as a nation that "leaders" eulogized him at his funeral. Very few redeeming qualities when his career is considered in its totallity. The state of America would have benefitted from his absence on the public scene, unless one postulates that his presence was a necessary evil, which seems to be the subcontext of his obituary.
No rush, Helms is just slightly less likely to change his mind now.
Oh yeah, he was an all around piece of shit. A real Renaissance man of douchebaggery.

Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes (plus 5 minutes resting time)
Serves 4
To make the paprika mayonnaise, place the egg yolk, garlic, lemon juice, tomato sauce, mustard and paprika in the bowl of a food processor and process until combined. With the motor running, gradually add the oil in a thin, steady stream until mixture is thick and pale. Taste and season with salt and pepper.
Melt the butter in a large frying pan over medium heat until foaming. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until the onion softens. Add the sugar and vinegar and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes or until onion is golden brown and caramelised. Transfer the cooked onion to a bowl.
Use a large sharp knife to cut through each steak, across the grain, into 2 thin steaks. Heat a barbecue or char-grill pan on medium high. Season steaks well with salt and pepper. Add the steaks to the preheated grill and cook for 1-2 minutes each side for medium, or until cooked to your liking. Transfer to a plate and cover with foil. Set aside for 5 minutes to rest.
Add the bread slices to the grill and cook for 1 minute each side or until toasted. Remove from heat. Place half the bread slices on serving plates. Dollop with paprika mayonnaise. Top with beef, onion, capsicum and rocket leaves. Sandwich with remaining bread slices. Serve immediately with potato wedges, if desired.

Tamara Palmer: How the 'Billie Jean' Video Changed MTVtags: pop culture, The Root, Billie Jean, Michael Jackson, MTV, pop music
Tamara Palmer is a San Francisco-based freelance writer and the author of Country Fried Soul: Adventures in Dirty South Hip-Hop. Follow her on Twitter.
(The Root) -- "Billie Jean," who was not Michael Jackson's lover, is turning 30 -- or at least her video is, and it's an important anniversary in the evolution of both black music's visual expression and America's iconic music network. On March 10, 1983, MTV played "Billie Jean" for the first time and forever changed the course of its music programming in the process.
"MTV's playlist was 99 percent white until Michael Jackson forced his way on the air by making the best music videos anyone had ever seen," Rob Tannenbaum, co-author of I Want My MTV: The Uncensored Story of the Music Video Revolution, told The Root. "Compared to Michael, MTV staples like REO Speedwagon and Journey suddenly looked even more boring. And when Michael's videos created higher ratings for MTV, network executives claimed they'd 'learned a lesson' and tentatively embraced the softer side of black pop music, especially Lionel Richie."
Tannenbaum's book, an oral history featuring artists, label executives and MTV executives, recounts the frequently cited story that CBS Records president Walter Yetnikoff threatened to pull his artists from MTV if "Billie Jean" wasn't put in rotation....

Scheduled several evenings a week, classes descend on local restaurants or art galleries, and all supplies are included. All venues serve food and drink, and many will feature discounted adult and nonalcoholic beverages for the duration of the event. Click here to check out Colors & Bottles' schedule, which includes each class locations, painting theme, and whether or not the class is top-hat optional.
Colors & Bottles
Colors & Bottles' founder Jessica Burley and her band of talented local artists are dedicated to supporting local emerging talent and businesses through art instruction held at nearby venues. Their resident artists travel to local eateries and art galleries, where they teach students of all skill levels to fashion dimensional masterpieces through step-by-step instruction. They also kindle creativity during private parties held at the location of your choice, asking only that the destination be outfitted with enough tables, chairs, and paint-by-numbers templates of the Sistine Chapel ceiling for all invitees. Colors & Bottles has received a nod for their engagingly creative events on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and within the pages of the Columbus Dispatch.

Garbage Collection in C Programs
into the appropriate include files. This code substitutes only the explicit calls contained in your code, leaving startup and library allocations to traditional malloc/free calls.
A different approach is to hook malloc and friends to functions of your own, which in turn would call the GC versions. Listing 1 shows how to do it, and it can be linked directly to an existing program. See my article "Advanced Memory Allocation" [LJ, May 2003] for details on these hooks. With this method, any heap allocation is guaranteed to go through libgc, even if it is not performed directly by your code.
Listing 1. Using glibc's malloc and free Hooks to Enable Garbage Collection
/* * Using the malloc hooks to substitute GC functions * to existing malloc/free. * Similar wrapper functions can be written * to redirect calloc() and realloc() */ #include <malloc.h> #include <gc.h> static void gc_wrapper_init(void); static void *gc_wrapper_malloc(size_t,const void *); static void gc_wrapper_free(void*, const void *); __malloc_ptr_t (*old_malloc_hook) __MALLOC_PMT((size_t __size, __const __malloc_ptr_t)); void (*old_free_hook) __MALLOC_PMT ((__malloc_ptr_t __ptr, __const __malloc_ptr_t)); /* Override initializing hook from the C library. */ void (*__malloc_initialize_hook)(void) = gc_wrapper_init; static void gc_wrapper_init() { old_malloc_hook = __malloc_hook; old_free_hook = __free_hook; __malloc_hook = gc_wrapper_malloc; __free_hook = gc_wrapper_free; } void * gc_wrapper_malloc(size_t size, const void *ptr) { void *result; /* Restore all old hooks */ __malloc_hook = old_malloc_hook; __free_hook = old_free_hook; /* Call the Boehm malloc */ result = GC_malloc(size); /* Save underlying hooks */ old_malloc_hook = __malloc_hook; old_free_hook = __free_hook; /* Restore our own hooks */ __malloc_hook = gc_wrapper_malloc; __free_hook = gc_wrapper_free; return result; } static void gc_wrapper_free(void *ptr, const void *caller) { /* Nothing done! */ }
As a third alternative, you can pass --enable-redirect-malloc to configure before compiling the libgc library. Doing so provides the library with wrapper functions that have the same names as the standard glibc malloc family. When linking with your code, the functions in libgc override the standard ones, with a net effect similar to using malloc hooks. In this case, though, the effect is system-wise, as any program linked with libgc is affected by the change.
Do not expect to endow huge programs with GC easily using any of these methods. Some simple tricks are needed in order to exploit GC functions and help the collector algorithm work efficiently. For example, I tried to recompile gawk (version 3.1.1) using GC and obtained an executable ten times slower than the original. With some adjustments, such as setting each pointer to NULL after having freed it, the execution time improved significantly, even if it was still greater than the original time.
If you are developing a new program and would like to take advantage of automated memory management, all you need to do is use the GC_malloc() family in place of the plain malloc() one and link with libgc. Memory blocks no longer needed simply can be disposed of by setting any referencing pointers to NULL. Alternatively, you can call GC_free() to free the block immediately.
Always remember that your whole heap is scanned periodically by the collector to look for unused blocks. If the heap is large, this operation may take some time, causing the performance of the program to degrade. This behavior is suboptimal, because large blocks of memory often are guaranteed never to contain pointers, including buffers used for file or network I/O and large strings. Typically, pointers are contained only in fixed positions within small data structures, such as list and tree nodes. Were C and C++ strongly typed languages, the collector could have decided whether to scan a memory block, based on the type of pointer. Unfortunately, this is not possible because it is perfectly legal in C to have a char pointer reference a list node.
For optimal performance, the programmer should try to provide some basic runtime type information to the collector. To this end, the BDW library has a set of alternative functions that can be used to allocate memory. GC_malloc_atomic() can be used in place of GC_malloc() to obtain memory blocks that will never contain valid pointers. That is, the collector skips those blocks when looking for live memory references. Furthermore, those blocks do not need to be cleared on allocation. GC_malloc_uncollectable() and GC_malloc_stubborn() also can be used to allocate fixed and rarely changing blocks, respectively. Finally, it is possible to provide some rough type information by using GC_malloc_explicitly_typed() and building block maps with GC_make_descriptor(). See gc_typed.h on the Linux Journal FTP site for more information [available at ftp.linuxjournal.com/pub/lj/listings/issue113/6679.tgz].
The collector's behavior also can be controlled by the user through a number of function calls and variables. Among the most useful ones are GC_gcollect(), which forces a full garbage collection on the whole heap; GC_enable_incremental(), which enables incremental mode collection; and GC_free_space_divisor, which tunes the trade-off between frequent collections (high values, causing low heap expansion and high CPU overhead) and time efficiency (low values).
Heap status and debug information is available through a number of functions, including GC_get_heap_size(), GC_get_free_bytes(), GC_get_bytes_since_gc(), GC_get_total_bytes() and GC_dump(). Many of these parameters and functions are not documented at all, not even in the source code itself. As always, a good editor is your friend.

unicode possibilities
It would be nice if cl-user would display unicode input for CJK text. With PCL and On Lisp getting new printings in Japan, it might be beneficial to attract more brain-share from that side of the world. Would this be considered out of cl-user.net's scope?

re: unicode possibilities
I have to think about it.
The use of English as the standard language is prefered so that the information is useable by most lispers.
I don't mind some other language content though.
