Jersey City apartments for rent put residents in the heart of the New Jersey/New York City metropolitan area. While some could say Jersey City lives in New York's shadow, its position close to the city and along the Hudson River has contributed to its development.
The business industry has been thriving as Jersey City offers attractive alternatives to the expensive New York City life. With diversity that can rival New York City itself, Jersey City neighborhoods are varied and eclectic. People can find the well-known areas of the Village, Little India, and Bergen Lafayette, the historic districts and its artists markets to provide glimpses of unique cultures in an urban setting.
Jersey City saw its earliest settlement in 1660 and according to the city's official website, a great deal of the history has taken place in the shadow of the Statue of Liberty. People enjoy living in this bustling city for the landmark attractions it has to offer, the thriving nightlife, and the community quality.
The city boasts having one of the most diverse populations in the country, with more than 250,000 residents from a wide array of ethnic backgrounds and cultures. It may surprise many to learn that the infamous Ellis Island is actually within the borders of Jersey City, which can speak to the diversity found here.
Jersey City apartments can be found across the city and many can look to the downtown area where the skyline continues to expand or to Greenville for a taste of the past. Greenville is a popular neighborhood for hosting some of the oldest planned green spaces, a number of local landmarks and the largest branch of the Jersey City public library, the Miller Branch.
Jersey City's economy has been traditionally dependent on transportation and distribution, but experienced a revival in the 1990s that continues today. The city shifted its focus to finance, insurance, and real estate businesses, contributing to Jersey City's nicknames of "the sixth borough" and "Wall Street West," according to City-Data. The source revealed that these businesses have seen a 500 percent growth since 1993 as many New York firms have looked to Jersey City to relocate or start up new businesses. Jersey City apartments are an ideal option for many business professionals relocating to these fast growing corporate developments.
City Town Info reveals that there are at least 10 colleges in Jersey City, including the selective New Jersey City University, which enrolls more than 8,400 students. Saint Peters College can also be found here, which enrolls roughly 3,000 students.
According to information collected by the U.S. Census Bureau, Jersey City rentals have a vacancy rate of 8.6 percent and the median gross rent is $1,084 as of 2010. Thirty percent of all renters fall in the gross rent range of $1,000 to $1,499, and more than 77 percent of all renters fall in the wider gross rent range of $750 to $1,500 or more. Nearly 39 percent of all renters report spending 35 percent or more on gross rental costs.
City-Data information revealed that the cost of living in Jersey City in March 2012 was assigned a value of 123.5, which is 23.5 points higher than the national average.
There are many national historic landmarks located within the boundaries of Jersey City, including the Colgate Clock, which is located on Hudson Street and faces the Hudson Bay. This clock has a dial that stretches 50 feet in diameter, and a minute hand that weighs 2,200 pounds and moves at a whopping rate of 23 inches per minute. The clock was constructed in 1924 and is one of the largest clocks in the world, attracting many visitors.
Jersey City apartments can be prime spots for artists as well. According to City-Data, as of 2000, Jersey City has more artists living and working in the area than its giant neighbor, New York City, has in its SoHo district, its traditional artist haven neighborhood.
A popular area attraction is the historic Loew's Theater, located in downtown Journal Square. The ornately detailed theater has more than 3,000 seats and recently underwent a dramatic renovation so it could continue serving the arts.

"I used this product for a 'schedule of events' for my destination wedding. The longer cut allowed me to fit all the information I needed in in regards to a 3-day schedule. The design team at Wedding Paper Divas adjusted the layout and text and transformed it into exactly what I was looking for. The quality is great and the design team got it done super fast."
"The invitations and all the accompanying pieces were beautiful! We received many compliments saying the invitation was very classy. We loved the autumn colors, the heavy textured paper and the beautiful simple design. Along with the invitations, we were pleased with the reply postcards and the enclosure card. The matching programs were on the same textured paper. We loved it all! I would highly recommend this design and product."
"I made some comments in the initial personalizing interface online- I said that I wanted help with formatting, changing font colors, and adding text to the back of the program. The person who made my proofs called me directly to verify my wishes. She also made some stylistic changes and edits like suggesting a darker font color for readability. Excellent customer service and I am so pleased with the result."
"Wanting a program that looked like it was bordered in gold, I called WPD and a staffer went through all the designs and sent me many samples to choose from. I ended up selecting a color that was not on the custom color card, but was used in one of their designs. It come out exactly how I wanted it to. Design wise, a staffer took the time to take this design and give me other design choices- one of which I loved. I made numerous changes along the way and he responded immediately. Couldn't have had a better experience."
"Ordered these for my wedding in June. They turned our so lovely. Ordered them with black ink and with pearlescent paper. Going to add some sheer pink ribbon to dress these up even more! Very classy, clean and elegant. I received very quick and great service from WPD. Thanks for helping make my wedding day even more special!"

Chinese Herbal Medicine: Formulas & Strategies, 2nd edition (9780939616671)
Publisher: Eastland Press
Binding: Hardcover
The new 2nd edition of Chinese Herbal Medicine: Formulas & Strategies—the companion volume to Chinese Herbal Medicine: Materia Medica—is designed to serve as both a textbook for students and an authoritative reference for practitioners of traditional Chinese medicine.
Included in the new edition are over 800 medicinal formulas drawn from both classical and modern sources, which provide more than twice the information in the earlier edition. For each of the 340-plus principal formulas there is a discussion of its therapeutic actions and indications, analysis of the functions and interactions of the ingredients, method of preparation, and a list of modifications to customize the formula in the clinic. Over 460 variations and associated formulas offer additional options for the practitioner.
The commentary to each formula has been considerably expanded. This section deepens the reader's understanding of a formula's genealogy, presents an overview of controversies regarding composition, usage, and other issues, describes the extension of a formula's application to a wider range of disorders, and provides key clinical pointers to facilitate use of the formula in the modern clinic.
A new section on comparisons has been added to this edition. This is intended to help students and practitioners focus on the distinguishing characteristics of each formula by contrasting it with other formulas that are similar in terms of composition or indication. Tables at the end of each chapter reinforce these distinctions by comparing and contrasting formulas across a wider range.
The introduction to the book traces the historical evolution of the formulas, and provides practical pointers for their preparation and use. Detailed timelines depict the key events, authors, and texts in the 2,000-year history of traditional Chinese herbal medicine, placing the contents of this book in historical context.
Among the appendices are a pinyin-to-English cross reference to the formulas, a basic summary formulary correlated to symptoms and disorders, a full listing of all books cited in the text, and a bibliography of all modern sources used in the preparation of the book. A comprehensive index to the formulas, and a general index, round out the contents.

Sure. Not condemning him either. He's the reason udev stayed in such a good state for such a long time and that Linus actually _can_ focus on the rc kernels. Plus he's awesome.
And I don't give a sh*t, if there's a sporadically triggered corruption here or an exceptionally occuring kernel panic there.
That's the price you pay when dealing with such huge and crucial components and it's not something that in the end you really can avoid. It's the people like darkbasic, Lemonzest, frantaylor, etc. who don't understand or think about it.
Their heads explode immediately when seeing things like this and they have to assume it's something that occurs every single time they move their mouse for more than two pixels.

I am going to be here in Singapore for an indefinite period, most likely it will be something like 3 to 6 months. It is just a matter of how things develop as to what happens after that. I Found a temporary place here in Singapore, a guy from work has a condo at the santorini in singapore, but he is going to be in the United Kingdom for a couple of months and so I made a deal with him. He will stay in my place outside of London while he is able to do it and I will use his condo. Of course this is a much better deal for me as this is a tiny country that is not half as large as London, so I am going to get full use of the place. Read the rest of this entry »
The House is Almost Built
We designed this house so that it is pretty nearly free of the grid. txu energy in laredo, tx has a power line that runs out there, but in fact we are generating pretty much what we need from three moderate sized wind turbine on the property and a bit of solar as well. The big thing is that the house is pretty much energy neutral so far as heating and cooling is concerned. Of course keeping it warm is hardly that big of a deal here, the climate can be brutally hot out here and the big thing is obviously keeping it cool. However we do not even need an air conditioning unit. Read the rest of this entry »
That Was a Close One
Just a few months ago my neighbor got robbed. A teenager broke into their house and stole many things of value like; a gaming system, a lab top, jewelry and a couple hundred dollars. A week later they caught the teenager but the gaming system and jewelry had already been sold, the lab top was broken and the money was spent. This got me worried about this sort of thing happening to me so I started looking at home security systems and found a good one: virginia adt. This seems to be the most secure system around. About a month and a half after my neighbors robbery I got my security system set up and I am very lucky I did because only two days after it was installed someone tried to steal from my home. It was about three in the morning and I heard a crash by my back door, I snuck down the stairs and saw a women with a metal bat in my living room. Read the rest of this entry »
Help Selecting the Best Internet Service Provider
It was time for me to select a new Internet service provider and I could not have been happier. I had been in a long contract with my old service provider, but I didn't feel like I had been getting a good value for my money. The speeds weren't as fast as they promised, and my rates went up as soon as my contract expired. I knew I was ready for a change. I told my friend that I was looking for a new Internet service provider and she told me to go to highspeeddslservice.net/dsl-service/ and see what I could find there. She used that website back when she was looking to switch providers.
Since the website was so helpful to her, I thought that I would give it a try. Read the rest of this entry »
Covering the Cars I Sell Online
I was told by my friends in the car business that if I wanted to make sure that I had my inventory covered, that I was going to have make sure that I had some kind of sales insurance on the cars that I sell online. I had no idea that there were so many people that were going to go and try to take advantage of people online. We knew that there were quite a bit of people that were going to go and find my cars on motortradeinsurance.tripod.co.uk where I was going to be listing them. It was going to be really upsetting to me if I went to meet someone and they tried to rob me of my car. There were a few different people that tried to car jack others after they scheduled to meet them online from the ads that they posted on the internet.
I read an online guide that said that you should not give out any of your personal information while you were online. Read the rest of this entry »

In an increasingly uncertain world where crime is ever on the rise due the lack of jobs and lack of money for many American families and individuals, we are beginning to look toward securing ourselves better against those that would want to take advantage of our vulnerability.

Despite that, I had kansas adt security installed in my home just the other day because of these concerns. Read the rest of this entry »
Great High Speed Internet Providers
I need to get a new internet connection in the near future, because I am not very happy with the company that I am currently getting internet service from, and I would like to change providers as soon as possible. I need to get a new internet connection soon, because I do not like going without internet. It is incredibly inconvenient, to say the least, and I need get something set up soon. I found internetproviders.us/internet-providers/ and I really hope that it will be able to hook me up with an internet provider that will work well for me in the future.
I am not sure how much it is going to cost me in this area, because I just moved into town. I am hoping to try to get something better than what I had last, because that internet connection was not very good, and certainly was not fast enough for my standards. I need to get something better going forward, because I play a lot of video games on the internet. I do not like to experience any sort of lag on the internet, and that is especially true when it comes to playing video games.
My son has been especially restless about not having an internet connection, so it would be best if I could find something soon. I am going to need to set a limit as to the amount of money I can afford to spend on Internet. I am thinking that I should not spend more than 75 bucks per month on Internet. I hope that I can find a good deal on internet that will cost me less than that, but I am not really sure. Regardless, I need to get the situation figured out soon, so that I can have it installed in my house.
Just Moved into My New Place
I have moved from Virginia to Tennessee, but it is not like I have gone all that far. I was living in my Mom's extra room temporarily in Bristol, VA. Now I have moved about five or so miles to the South and I am in the outskirts of Bristol, TN. The place is not too bad, but it is not a palace. My uncle was telling me about it and mentioned that it was about 500 or 600 yards from where I am working right now.

Doing Very Little at School Now
It would be fair to say my plans were not really involved in going to school this semester. It is summer and I planned to head to Myrtle Beach in South Carolina to work a summer job, drink beer and talk to girls in bikinis, However I had no choice but to stay here or else plan on spending an extra semester at college. They only offer this one course in the summer and Winter, but I plan on having graduated by Winter. Right now I am sitting in a rather boring class trying to downgrade iOS 8 on this phone a friend of mine bricked. He thought he was going to do something cute it seems, but he did not do it right and he could not get anything done on it. For a time I thought it was past my ability as well. I have tinkered with phones here and there and I have a background in comp sci which in theory qualifies me for the task, but some times the phone is just too far past fixing.
At any rate I have probably gotten the phone to a place where I can fix it. That is not something that I did through my great genius. In fact I am not quite sure what I did. I was messing with it and thought that I was at a dead end. The battery went dead on it and then I just put it in back pack and forgot about. When I took it out and messed with it, the thing was coming on. It was acting all flaky and the OS was completely unstable, but at least it was responding to me and I was able to fix it once I got it to where it was going to do stuff.

'Very uncommon' measles outbreak in Stokes County
State and local health officials are investigating a measles outbreak containing at least seven cases in Stokes County.
Stokes County health officials said they have confirmed two cases and are calling five other cases probable.
Vaccines were given to 14 unprotected people, and county health officials asked some people without immunizations to quarantine themselves for 21 days.
County health officials released the following statement Thursday afternoon:
"The Stokes County Health Department was notified on Sunday, April 14th of a potential measles outbreak. The Stokes County Health Department has identified the source of this outbreak, and along with the assistance of the NC Department of Public Health, continues to investigate and contain this outbreak."
County health officials didn't specify the source in its statement.
The disease is "very uncommon" in North Carolina, said Dr. Laura Herald, state health director, in a news release.
Measles is highly contagious and spreads quickly especially among children and adults who aren't vaccinated. Those who want to be vaccinated can call (336) 593-2400.
Measles first shows symptoms similar to other infections, such as fever, runny nose, watery red eyes and a cough. In about two days, a rash appears on the head and spreads over the entire body.
The disease is spread through the air by coughing and sneezing, as well as through contact with secretions from the nose or mouth of an infected person.
Health officials ask anyone who notices a rash or worsening symptoms to call their health care provider before making a visit so crews can properly prepare.

MONTEREY, Calif. - The under secretary of defense for intelligence, Dr. Michael G. Vickers, was pleasantly surprised Nov. 3 when he encountered his former Spanish instructor at the Defense Language Institute Foreign Language Center while observing a Spanish language class.
"Although I was able to understand what was being discussed during the class, I was also a little bit worried because I thought I was going to be re-tested in Spanish, which has atrophied somewhat," said Vickers with a chuckle.
"It was wonderful to see my old student. When I saw his face, it all came back to me," said Dr. Deanna Tovar, who had just begun her career as a Spanish instructor in the late 1970s and is today dean of the European and Latin American school.
"She was a great instructor and I am not surprised to see her as the dean of the school and that she has done so well," said Vickers.
As a young Special Forces soldier and then officer, Vickers graduated from the DLIFLC Czech course in 1977 and Spanish course in 1979 with top scores.
His unique experience at the Institute has influenced him throughout his career. Vickers has been credited for contributing to the withdrawal of Russian troops from Afghanistan in the 1980s. More recently, he was recognized as a key leader in the process that led to planning, locating, and killing the world's most wanted terrorist, Osama bin Laden.
"When I was here for Czech, my professor told us that language is the most intimate expression of a nation's culture. I know DLI really teaches culturally-based language instruction, and I have certainly found that true when I have used languages operationally as a Special Forces officer and as a CIA officer," said Vickers.
As principal staff and advisor to the Department of Defense regarding intelligence, counterintelligence, security, and other intelligence-related matters, Vickers has a far-reaching view of how important foreign language and culture are to the future of national security.
"As we come out of a decade of wars, the world is getting more complicated and there is more volatility, for example across the Middle East. Having people with these (language) skills is tremendously valuable. If you are not going to have a lot there, you ought to have your best there," he said. "I think (language) is really central. Our new defense strategy focuses on Asia, North Africa, and the Middle East region and these skills will be paramount to that strategy."
Though Vickers fully agrees that knowing some language "goes a long way," when conducting intelligence assignments or working in foreign countries in various capacities, he insists that high level proficiency is vital for mission success.
"Higher level skill is critical. I have seen a number of times over the course of my career where even 3 Level Russian didn't cut it on an important national security problem. You needed to be at the 4 Level to really exploit the intelligence that we need," he explained, referring to the Interagency Language Roundtable foreign language proficiency scale.
Vickers, accompanied by Tim Clayton, the Defense Intelligence Senior Language Authority, and Glenn Nordin, his foreign language and area advisor, also observed an upper division 47-week Russian course called the Russian Arms Control Speaking Proficiency Course. The course is designed to prepare students to work for the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, the DoD's official Combat Support Agency for countering weapons of mass destruction.
Commenting on all the changes that have taken place at the Institute over the past three decades, Vickers said he was most impressed by DLIFLC's strategic outreach that takes place in 29 locations around the world and includes sustainment and predeployment training.
As a two-time DLIFLC graduate, Vickers was guest speaker at the DLIFLC 71st Anniversary Ball attended by Institute faculty, staff, and leadership.

World E1 Champion Antoine Meo made a solid start to the Sardegna ISDE 2013 on Monday after settling in to ride in the E3 class in place of injured KTM factory teammate Christophe Nambotin. The Six Days classic is being held on the Italian island of Sardinia.
Antoine Meo was riding with Johnny Aubert, Pela Renet and Jeremy Joly on Day One for the title-holding French team, which led USA and Australia in the World Trophy by more than a minute at the end of competition. Italy, Spain and Britain were ranked in that order.
With Meo easing himself in the E3 class riding Christophe Nambotin's KTM 300 EXC, the day's top individual rider in the World Trophy was Australian Daniel Milner. KTM Factory Team boss Fabio Farioli confirmed Meo only had a chance to test the bike the day before competition started. He said he expected him to be faster as the week continues. Although new to the bike, Meo still topped E3 and was third fastest overall on Day One, trailing Milner by just six seconds. Meo also won tests four and five (of six tests) on the opening day. '
French teammate Johnny Aubert of the KTM Factory team was third in the E2 class and fourth overall at the end of Day One. KTM's Spanish factory riders Cristobal Guerrero was second fastest E1 rider and Ivan Cervantes finished fourth in E2.
It was also a good day out for second placed Team USA, including KTM riders Kurt Caselli, Mike Brown and Charlie Mullins.
France also leads the standings in the Junior World Trophy ahead of Italy, USA and Britain but there is only 1:15 minutes separating the top four.
Overnight rain laid the dust for the first half of the race but with no more rain expected, Farioli said it might become an issue as the competition continues.
The ISDE is celebrating its centenary edition on the Italian island of Sardinia. It is the oldest offroad competition in the FIM (International Motorcycle Federation) calendar and started in the UK in 1913. As well as the world elite contesting the World and Junior World Trophies, it also attracts hobby and club riders. More than 600 are on the start for Sardegnia ISDE 2013.

Title 38 published on 2014-07-01
The following are ALL rules, proposed rules, and notices (chronologically) published in the Federal Register relating to 38 CFR Part 1 after this date.
GPO FDSys XML | Text type regulations.gov FR Doc. 2014-27629 RIN 2900-AO39 DEPARTMENT OF VETERANS AFFAIRS Proposed rule. Comments must be received by VA on or before January 20, 2015. 38 CFR Part 1 The Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) proposes to amend its regulation regarding the presence of animals on VA property. Current VA regulation authorizes the presence of seeing-eye dogs on VA property and other animals as authorized at the discretion of a VA facility head or designee. However, applicable Federal law authorizes the presence of guide dogs and other service animals when these animals accompany individuals with disabilities seeking admittance to buildings or property owned or operated by the Federal Government. This proposed rule would expand the current VA regulation to be consistent with applicable Federal law, and would clarify the authority of a VA facility head or designee to allow nonservice animals to be present on VA property.

Micro Peel Resurfacing Pads
These pads contain a mix of AHAs, BHA (salicylic acid), peptides, and some good anti-irritants.
Collagen Lift
Collagen Lift has a brief yet descriptive name, but it makes up for it with its extensive claims.
Add to Faves?
Strengths: Complete ingredient lists available on the company's website; AHA exfoliants formulated in the correct pH range for efficacy; products packaged to keep the beneficial ingredients protected from degrading air and light; the sunscreen provides broad-spectrum protection; gentle cleanser.
Weaknesses: Expensive; confusing pricing structure; lip-plumping balm with sunscreen does not provide sufficient UVA protection and contains potent lip irritants; none of the products are equivalent to in-office cosmetic corrective or surgical procedures—the claims are over the top and misleading.
Derm Exclusive is a small collection of anti-aging products from Beverly Hills plastic surgeon Dr. Andrew Ordon. You may have seen him on the television show The Doctors, where he's credited as their plastic surgery expert and co-host.
Derm Exclusive products are sold online or by phone. On their website, the products are arranged in kits ("Collections") ranging in cost from $39.95 for the 4 product Introductory Collection to $164.55 for the 7-piece Ultimate Collection. Once you've purchase a set, you then have the option to reorder products individually—but first you must decide if you want to become a Derm Exclusive club member (which means you sign up for automatic shipments and enjoy a discount on reordering individual products) or if you prefer to pay the "regular" price and not sign up for the auto-replenishment club.
The kit and individual product pricing structure is among the most confusing we've ever come across for a mail-order line. Despite the headache of trying to figure it all out, we must acknowledge how helpful the customer service representatives at Derm Exclusive were. This is not a line with straightforward pricing, no matter which option you choose, and they were exceedingly patient.
The Ultimate Collection includes a well-formulated sunscreen, but only 1 ounce of it. Research shows conclusively that all sunscreens must be applied liberally to face, neck, and chest to achieve the SPF on the label. If you use this sunscreen as you should—liberally—then it will be used up in less than one month, despite their claim that all of the products in the collection will last for 90 days. To us, claiming 1 ounce of sunscreen will last 90 days is unconscionable. Generally, the size of each product from Derm Exclusive is on the small side, but, as mentioned, you can reorder some of the products individually if you call the company.
The line is represented with pictures of a stunning, though clearly "Photoshopped," picture of actress Minnie Driver's smooth and flawless skin. While we admire Ms. Driver's work (she is an amazingly talented woman), her endorsement of this product line is far less than what we expected of her.
Despite his profession, Dr. Ordon feels, as he should, that for some people, plastic surgery isn't the answer. As the rest of his story goes, he began looking for skin-care alternatives to surgery. In time, he discovered and decided to align himself with the Derm Exclusive brand and their "instant results" technology. This technology is built around four peptides meant to work their magic without needles, scalpels, lasers, or downtime. That sounds great, but here's the catch: There's no substantiated research, or any research of any kind that you can get from the company, proving that any peptide or peptide blend works in any manner akin to cosmetic corrective procedures that a doctor can perform. From almost any perspective, it's sheer nonsense, but obviously not to Dr. Ordon.
Dr. Ordon steps beyond medical reality with his claim that "Now you can see the same instant age-reversing results as the patients who come into my Beverly Hills office, without surgery or invasive techniques." That's the tempting hook that has so many curious about these products, but it's about as disingenuous as it gets in the world of doctor-fronted skin care.
Believe us when we say that plastic surgeons and dermatologists who perform cosmetic corrective procedures are not going out of business because of products from Derm Exclusive! Even Dr. Ordon hasn't closed his practice.
Just to clarify—skin care is important to keep your skin looking its healthy, youthful best, but any plastic surgeon or dermatologist who's being honest about the abundant research on skin-care and medical procedures would have to admit that the best approach to younger, smoother, firmer skin is a balance of skin care with cosmetic corrective procedures and, possibly, cosmetic surgery. Skin care alone does not cut it if you want to address signs of aging such as sagging, volume loss, and deep wrinkles.
In short, Derm Exclusive isn't the non-surgical instant miracle it's made out to be. Dr. Ordon's Derm Exclusive line ends up being more hype (and we mean a load of hype) than substance, and a far cry from what's possible with in-office cosmetic corrective or surgical procedures.

Fred Perry's iconic polo shirts set off the sportswear-to-streetwear phenomenon: the brand has long been an integral part of the British underground scene. Today, it offers a wide range of clothing, shoes and accessories for men, women, and kids, from sweaters to sneakers to woven shirts to plaid wool dresses. The Fred Perry polo, with its iconic laurel logo, was launched at Wimbledon in 1952 by tennis superstar and proto preppy punk Fred Perry (who, incidentally, also invented the sweatband); the polo shirt quickly spread to other parts of youth subculture, beginning with its adoption by Mods in 1959. More recently, the Fred Perry Subculture label has kept the musical connection alive, while a collaboration with the late, great Amy Winehouse produced several sought-after collections that also maintain the fashion-music lifeline: the Amy Winehouse for Fred Perry trench coats, bowling shirts, polos and leopard print shirt dresses have become as iconic as the brand itself. Other star collaborators, from rock band No Doubt to tennis player Andy Murray, have also left their mark on the British brand, while Belgian design maverick Raf Simons has most recently put out a sharp, mod-inflected collaboration -- think varsity jackets to complement polo shirts and chinos.
Boots, sneakers, oxfords, espadrilles, and every other style you can think of, now for less.

a really cool industrial/screamo/electro-punk band from Levittown, Pennsylvania that formed in 2006. Members are Brandon Sosnowski, Travis Daniel Cochran, and Ashley "Sugar" McDermott. The band has one demo out and an album called The Verge of Suicide. Personally, I think they are worth checking out because there aren't a lot of people that know about them yet. They are also very popular in the industrial section on Vampirefreaks.

Census of Population and Housing, 1980: American Indian Supplementary Questionnaire Public Use Microdata Sample (ICPSR 8664)
Principal Investigator(s): United States Department of Commerce. Bureau of the Census
The 1980 American Indian supplementary file provides information on the American Indian, Eskimo, and Aleut populations beyond that obtained from the regular 1980 census questionnaire. The questionnaire was used on all federal and state reservations and in the historic areas of Oklahoma (excluding urbanized areas) to obtain information about the unique living conditions present on many reservations and in those specified areas of Oklahoma. Population items from the supplementary questionnaire include: tribal affiliation, educational attainment, health services received, occupation, work history, benefits received, and income. Housing items include: source of water, source of heat, kitchen facilities, telephone, electrical lighting, and materials and age of structure.

Subject Terms: census data, demographic characteristics, education, energy consumption, ethnicity, housing, income, job history, Native Americans, occupations, telephones, work environment
Geographic Coverage: United States
Time Period:
- 1979--1980
Date of Collection:
- 1980
Universe: All persons living in households with one or more American Indians, Eskimos, or Aleuts on reservations identified for the 1980 Census and in historic areas of Oklahoma (excluding urbanized areas).
Data Types: survey data
Data Collection Notes:
The file comprises two types of records: housing and persons. Data are recorded for 12,949 households and 50,265 persons with a total of 63,214 records in the file. Subsample numbers have been assigned to each case so that subsamples of various sizes may be drawn from the data set. The data contain alphabetic and blank codes.
Sample: Five out of every six housing units on reservations or in historic areas of Oklahoma that received a short census form were included in the original supplementary questionnaire sample. A stratified systematic procedure with probability proportional to the sample weight of the householder was used to select this ten-percent public use microdata sample. The sampling elements were the occupied housing units including all occupants.

Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Ok, we already know many forum members have purchased BNA cycling attire.
It would be interesting to know how many members consider this type of garb to be their normal cycling attire. BTW - I always wear lycra. Last edited by RonK on Sun Jan 13, 2013 11:24 pm, edited 1 time in total.

Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Always wear it when I'm on the roadie. The flatbar is optional as its usually on commuter/shop duties.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Always for the roadie but never for the taxi (baby seated mountain bike)
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Probably quicker an easier to ask who doesn't.

Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Mostly for the touring rides I do (but no trade team tops, just plain garments); almost never on my commute, although one pair of trousers I use - the GE Ranchsliders - do have a small proportion of lycra in them, not that anyone would notice it.
Riding bikes in traffic - what seems dangerous is usually safe; what seems safe is often more dangerous.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?When it comes to roadies I very rarely see someone that isn't wearing lycra
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?
Is it? Where I live, ride and commute probably only 1 in 20 cyclists are wearing Lycra. For long distance and enthusiast cycling, Lycra and dedicated cycle wear are the obvious and sensible garb of choice for almost everybody else it is not sensible. Unfortunately for many people, in many parts of Australia cycling is either a enthusiast activity or not at all. I voted NEVER because "sometimes" over represents the ~2% of the time I wear my Lycra.
What makes somebody a "roadie" if it isn't the lycra? A road bike? Well are you counting the 1000s of hipsters, poor uni students, and my 65 yo father riding 20 year old road bikes? ***Explanation: I do have a bone to pick with the Lycra culture. Not that Lycra is a problem, nor are having enthusiasts a problem. However I see that there is a problem in this country with the lack of non-enthusiast cycling culture. This lack of non-enthusiast cycling culture affects us enthusiasts significantly. It makes it more unsafe on the roads and leads to poorer cycling infrastructure. I would like to see more enthusiasts recognise this and support and encourage cycling no matter what people wear. Last edited by human909 on Sun Jan 13, 2013 10:53 pm, edited 2 times in total.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?For any significant distance it is Lycra shorts.
But some cheaper brands of Lycra pants do not breath well and are not suitable for summer use. I got caught in a rainstorm once wearing baggy shorts and had to ride 80km wishing i had chosen lycra. Usually Lycra top but not always. Occasionally i will ride to work wearing the intended work-shirt. Sometimes in summer here it is so dam hot and humid that sports T shirt type tops are more comfortable than Lycra jerseys. "Technology gives us much more information but Education is never be able to give us the skill to evaluate it"
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?
An interesting point. Most people seem unaware that all the road jerseys they see cyclists wearing are not lycra! Your tops are in all likelihood not lycra. Lycra/spandex/elastane is a polyurethane fibre. Check your labels - most road jerseys are made of various types of polyester fabrics. Coolmax is one that had some adverse effects and is less common now. Lycra is generally only used by cyclists for their shorts (also used by swimmers, skiers, rowers, netballers, dancers, yada, yada - but no-one complains about them ). Back in the 80s there were lycra road jerseys, and if you ever used them you'll know why they are no longer sold - awful clammy, sticky garments. For some reason this is less of an issue with shorts (and I believe the lycra fabrics have been improved). So really the troglodite public should be bitching about all the rogue cyclists riding about in polyester Riding bikes in traffic - what seems dangerous is usually safe; what seems safe is often more dangerous.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?There should be a "saving up for a bike so no money for Lycra but would like to (maybe) wear in the future" option .That would be where I fit in. So at the moment I voted never, but that's because I have no choice/ don't have Lycra!
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?
OK then... Hmmm bugger - didn't realise adding an option would zero all the previous votes. Are you able to reset mods? Cycle touring blog and tour journals: whispering wheels...
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Other than the cycling gloves I received for Xmas I don't own any cycling apparel, and thats not likely to change. While low-impact exercise may have been the catalyst that got me into cycling, most cycling gear isn't particularly suitable for recumbents. Jerseys have pockets in the back, shorts have unneeded padding, etc. I also ride mostly for fun (well, fun exercise at any rate) and performance is not a concern of mine. If I regularly commuted long distances, or was into competitive cycling, or even just cared about my over-all performance it'd be a different story.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Never. Actually, on tour I wear "lycra" shorts, otherwise, never.

Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Depends... on
1. weather 2. destination (will ride to a meeting but not in bike kit ) 3. distance (never bother changing for a ride to the shop) 4. which bike I'm on and who I'm riding with (again bike kit not that appropriate for a low speed PSP outing with the family) Personally I reckon the "always" and "never" crowds are just limiting their opportunities. For fun. And comfort.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?I just prefer baggy clothing to fitted. Went for sometimes because for long distances I don the knicks, otherwise it's baggies. 'Rarely' would have been a better option. My regular shorts are MTB style baggies with an inner. My only jersey that fits the 'Lycra' badge gets used when the washing hasn't caught up, regularly worn ones are T-shirt style.
I don't fit the roadie category either. Would ride MTB by choice, but have an old steel roadie for commuter duties because it's quicker and I don't wear out my good MTB. bychosis (bahy-koh-sis): A mental disorder of delusions indicating impaired contact with a reality of no bicycles.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Well I guess I'm one of those deadly strava goons who always wears Lycra. Got to have it on during the CCR commute. Well except when I'm tootling along on the BSO with the kids. Then my alter ego takes over and I am compelled to run red lights and buzz people on bike paths.
*goons = hoons , the joys of auto correct. Thought I'd leave it though. Possibly more accurate in my case.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?My jerseys are merino. Lycra for knicks though. What are the issues with Coolmax? It still seams to have prolific use in both sports and work wear.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?
Yes, merino is even better for a jersey, with the new finer knits. Ground Effect are now doing their knicks out of a lycra-merino blend as well.
Also known as 'Stinkmax'. Don't ever try to wear it for a second day without washing. Other polyesters are a good deal better for wearability, but merino is the best. Touring in the outback (think - no water for clothes washing) we wore merino thermals for days on end and they did not develop a pong. Riding bikes in traffic - what seems dangerous is usually safe; what seems safe is often more dangerous.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?
I am pretty much with Rob and others who have said similar. Really depends on the ride and/or bike. Andrew
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?So far 52% of cyclists here are full-time pure evil.
I can't vote because I wear a polyester jersey most days and plain polyester/cotton shorts. I don't wear any Lycra/spandex but I'm sure when cycling I look a lot like a lycra clad lone wolf to the average ped.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?Good to know, I may have to check them out when in the market for knicks next. I did try Route 7 knicks with some merino in them but the chaimois was the wrong cut for me making them unsuitable.
Ahh, ok. I was thinking there may be some more serious issue present that I hadn't heard of. Not suitable for multiday touring but not an issue for many users that wash after each use anyway.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?
It's not.
Re: Show of hands - who cycles in lycra?It is. Plenty of people wear plain clothing that don't have to be the fastest.

Gio Gonzalez hopes to harness his emotions — and command — tonight in Game 5.
After their blowout loss in Game 3 of the National League Division Series, multiple Nationals players mentioned how significant a win in Game 4 would be, not only because of the obvious staving off of elimination but because it would allow them to get the ball back in their ace's hand for a decisive Game 5.
"If we win one game," Ryan Zimmerman said, "we have a good chance with our guy on the mound."
"Our guy," of course, is Gio Gonzalez, who now gets a chance to start the final game of this taut series against the Cardinals, erase the memory of his shaky Game 1 outing and propel the Nationals to a date with the Giants in the National League Championship Series.
Members of the organization have been referring to Gonzalez as "our guy" and "our ace" for weeks now, even before Stephen Strasburg was shut down in early-September and putting the onus on the left-hander to lead this pitching staff down the stretch and into theRead more »

I've often wondered why pitchers don't figure, after four or five straight foul balls to the same batter, "Yeesh, I can't strike him out and I can't make him put it into play. I'd better simply walk the guy before I make a mistake and hang one for him.As noted above: some do. But, not only would it have been a leadoff walk, but a leadoff walk with Harper-Zim-LaRoche to follow.I forget who it is that said it, but some announcer said his favorite stats on Jim Palmer was that he had a handfull of bases-load walks, but never once in his career did he allow a grand slam.

http://joeposnanski.blogspot.com/2012/10/washington-baltimore-players-used-to.htmlThanks, 222, for the link! Joe Pos is one of the greatest current sportswriters, for any/all sports (but particularly baseball).He says it all. I've been a Davey fan since day one (i.e., in the early 1980's). Davey's a rare case of someone who's a genius at stats, strategy, and managing _people_.A number of folks criticized Davey mightily after the 9-0 win turned to a 10-9 loss and took the blame. Folks here agreed with the blame. Pos correctly notes that Davey was just taking the heat off the players. (And folks think Davey has too big an ego? Hah)Pos also points something out that I noted last summer when Davey first got hired and some critics here noted he was a one-trick poney: the Davey manages the team he has and is not locked into any style, and cited the Reds leading the league in stolen bases as an example. Davey had a fast team, so he used it. If he has sluggers, he plays long ball. And so forth.I'm so happy Davey got another shot at managing, so that folks will think of him come Hall of Fame time — Davey deserves it. All he does is win over his players, and win ball games.

Gio will be solid Gio at home tonight.It's the hitters who need to remember their last home outing against Wainwright.Reposted from Detweiler dominates" thread @ 12:07 — FOR TODAY: Just looked back at the play-by-play from the August 31 Gio vs. Wainwright game here at Nats Park. We won 10-0 and apart from our last two runs scored on a Zim dinger in garbage time, every one of our other runs (eight) was driven in on a single. And we knocked Wainwright out after only 2 2/3 innings on 7 singles, 2 doubles (tho one, by Werth, was stranded), and 3 walks.Check it out (sorry for the non-embedded link):http://washington.nationals.mlb.com/mlb/gameday/index.jsp?gid=2012_08_31_slnmlb_wasmlb_1&mode=recap&c_id=was#gid=2012_08_31_slnmlb_wasmlb_1&mode=playsI hope our hitters take a lesson from that and take what Wainwright makes available, NOT what several of them seem to have in their minds when they come up to the plate. Think of that — we scored 8 runs (6 vs Wainwright), ALL on RBI singles.Plus, they ain't all as capable and determined as Werth was last night in repeatedly fouling off tough pitches until they get one to drive or even just get a hit on. Even Werth has a hard time being Werth last night in the ninth.

Wonk — that Facebook tagoramic thing IS very cool. Except there's a guy in front of me who's mostly in front of me. Oh well.But I have a conundrum to pose. Look at the strip scoreboards (1st and 3rd base lines). They show Lombo at bat and Lohse pitching in the bottom of the sixth. So why are the Nats clearly in the field, with Det pitching to Molina as the third (out of five) batters in the top of the sixth, who was about to hit into the almost-DP? Clearly the pictures of the two strip scoreboards were taken at the same time, with a 2-2 count on Lombo. I imagine there's some technical explanation, but it's weird.
- rogieshan - Oct 12, 2012 at 8:14 PM
Kirbs said, " Now, if A-Rod can be benched, why cant Danny?"It's a legitimate question. I would even include Harper in that debate.Section 222 said, "Because that's just not the way Davey rolls."That is 100% correct. End of debate.A DC Wonk said, "Because Danny contributes twice a much in the field compared to what he subtracts at bat. (Or, at least that's what the stats say)."Well, yes and no, at least based on we've witnessed in this series. His defense has been near flawless, but his lack of offense has unquestionably hurt the team. I could accept that argument if we were talking about Kurt Suzuki hitting in the 8th hole and catching.

All the focus on Gio — the offense needs to get cooking against Wainright. They have done it before, they need to remember how they did it.Facing the same team five times in a row is strange. I guess everyone has the scouting reports memorized.

Feel Wood — thanks for reading the fine print. I generally only do that when I'm signing a contract. ;-)swami — take a look at my 3:58 post just above. The hitters succeeded against Wainwright a month ago by taking what he gave them, not by trying to do things that his pitches wouldn't allow.

- Steady Eddie - Oct 12, 2012 at 8:37 PM
Scooter — as Feel Wood wrote also, I figured it was probably something like that (there are areas where lots of people aren't paying attention, maybe between innings or ABs). It was just weird that the two strip scoreboards in widely different areas of the picture were taken at the same moment. Maybe the "unpopulated" parts of the picture were taken in a very few shots for structure and the "populated" parts were taken seriatim.Makes it a little bit surreal, though.
- baseballswami - Oct 12, 2012 at 8:39 PM
Steady Eddie – hope they do the same thing tonight. You know, I think that the Nats and their fans are developing their own personality at long last. The Morse and Werth walk up music seem to work. The wave does not. The Teddy speech has become wildly popular with everyone immediately. Teddy losing is not. This season things have really started to come together and I hope it keeps growing. It's been just so much fun. I stopped at the grocery store on my way home in NOVA and random people were wearing their gear, had their cars decked out and were approaching each other in the store and the parking lot to chat about yesterday's game, are you going?, can't wait for tonight, etc. It was really cool. I needed to purchase additional alcohol as yesterday I almost hyperventilated.

- baseballswami - Oct 12, 2012 at 8:54 PM
You know, I think Jordan's annihilation of the Cards hitters in the seventh took less time than Jayson's at bat. He works fast anyway – that was just murderous. I know JDub went six minutes. JZim did not throw many pitches. As for tonight, 3 and a half hours now, some of our hitters have been ice cold, but you just know that they are still dangerous and any one of them can hurt you at any time. I kind of hope the cards get complacent. I would love to see the bats early in the game. But I know that's probably not how we will roll. For some reason there has to be torture involved. It looks pretty windy out there – ah, October baseball. I wonder which way the wind is blowing at the park?
- NatsLady - Oct 12, 2012 at 8:58 PM
I think A-Rod can still field, just not hit. But they had used him as a DH (not an alternative open to Davey), moved him down in the order, etc. Personally, I think it was win-win for Girardi. If he pulls A-Rod he's a hero, especially if the replacement produces. If he doesn't, well, who could blame him?
- Feel Wood - Oct 12, 2012 at 9:05 PM
It was just weird that the two strip scoreboards in widely different areas of the picture were taken at the same moment.The information displayed on the strip scoreboards doesn't change very fast. The scoreboards are also on the same level. A camera could have panned from one end of the stadium to the other on that level in 30 seconds to a minute, shooting all the way, and caught the same info off both boards.

I really wanna see Bryce turn it on tonight. I wanna see him take a page from his mentor JWerth. Stare down the pitcher. Foul off 3, 4, 5 balls. Then lace one down the line and eke out a triple, …just because he can.Go Nats!

A Unique Approach to Global Workforce Engagement
Earn Your MA in Management
First Class Starts January 2015
Saybrook's School of Organizational Leadership and Transformation now offers a unique Masters in Management with a specialization in Global Workforce Collaboration. As both international businesses and non-profit organizations deal with the challenges of global management, managers who are able to use cultural diversity to advantage and to successfully integrate the efforts of dispersed teams, will be highly prized.
Every business in the 21st century is becoming a global business: customers, supply chains, raw materials, and marketing are all part of an emerging world market of unprecedented complexity.
Companies need managers who can work with teams and cultures from across the world. These managers must be able to organize people and processes with equal fluency and bring out the best in diverse teams of people who may never meet face-to-face
We can teach you how to do that.
Saybrook's School of Organizational Leadership and Transformation is now offering a unique MA in management, specializing in Global Workforce Collaboration. As both international businesses and non-profit organizations deal with rapid change in multiple countries and cultures at once, managers who understand how to integrate virtual teams with on-site offices across the world are highly prized.
Your ability to work with diverse populations, macro-economic trends, rapid technological changes, and the many other complex challenges that globalization poses to modern institutions, will help take your work to the next level – wherever in the world you chose to go.
Who Will Benefit from this Degree
This program is designed for people working in or with:
- dispersed teams in the US and internationally
- any business involved with exporting or importing
- mid-size businesses making their first foray into globalized marketing, manufacturing, service delivery, or customer support
- large companies seeking to improve the efficacy of technological communication among members of virtual teams who must collaborate over vast differences in time, space, and culture
- non-governmental organizations and institutions who see the potential of global interactivity for sparking creativity, innovation, and problem-solving.
This 18-month program is designed for working professionals with real-world experience in organizations confronting the challenges of working globally. This degree will serve you well whether you must confront issues related to managing talent in a diverse workforce; delivering products and services responsive to customers in multiple countries; or practicing behaviors across borders that respect cultural differences but remain grounded in shared organizational values.
In addition to studying core conceptual courses online, you will use a problem you currently confront as your own practical laboratory for practicing what you're learning throughout the duration of the program.
