The game is about to release on steam but I noticed an article from IGN detailing a patch that came out. But they also made a hyper link to the patch which made me think that it's a manual download only. So I was just curious if the game auto patches via steam or Uplay or do you have to go hunt these patches down yourself? Thanks duders
Does the game auto patch?
I imagine the Steam version would. I just bought it on Steam but am stuck at work. So I won't know if it auto-patches till later tonight. I'm guessing Uplay will auto-patch as well. Unless they just completely overlooked that feature... which wouldn't surprise me.
IIRC if it's got Steamworks, Steam will handle the patching. If there is a non-Steam version of the game, that might need manual patching. Applying a manual patch to the Steam version of any game has the potential to impact the stability of the game.
@doobie said:
im playing the none steam version in the UK and im sat waiting for it to patch to 1.02 as i type this. which it did all by itself
Same here, patched to 1.02 today when launching the game.

Morningstar's TriStar-45 Controller is a three function controller that provides reliable solar battery charging, load control or load diversion regulation. This controller operates in only one of these modes at a time but, two or more controllers may be used to provide multiple functions. The TriStar-45 uses advanced technology and automated production to provide exciting new features at a competitive cost.
The TriStar-45 is UL listed and is designed for both solar home systems and industrial applications.
Optional: Morningstar's Remote Temperature Sensor (RTS) provides very accurate battery charging in solar systems that experience temperature variations during the year. Use with the TriStar for battery charging or diversion control modes (not for load control mode) whenever the temperature of the battery varies more than 5°C (9°F) during the year. When used with the TriStar controller (no on-board temperature compensation), the RTS adjusts charging for temperature changes at the battery.

Voters are narrowly approving Washington's new "everything but marriage" law. With about 50-percent of the expected vote counted Tuesday night, Referendum 71 was leading 51 percent to 49 percent Tuesday night.
R-71 asks voters to approve or reject the final expansion to the state's domestic partnership law, which grants registered domestic partners additional state-granted rights currently given only to married couples.
The expanded law would add benefits, such as the right to use sick leave to care for a domestic partner, and rights related to adoption, child custody and child support.
At the Rain Lounge in downtown Spokane the atmosphere was festive Tuesday night where supporters of R-71 gathered to watch the election returns come in. Many of the people who gathered at Rain Tuesday are in domestic partnerships and desperately want the legal protections that would put them on par with heterosexual married couples under state law.
?We're not up a lot but you know for us we expect a win, because we expect the voters of Washington to do the right thing they have in the past and we expect it now,? R-71 Jet Tilley said.
Those that are opposed to R-71 remain optimistic the numbers will swing in their favor once more votes are tallied. They say homosexuals do not have the right to redefine marriage and they also worry about the children in gay partnerships.
?I think we need to be very careful about changing thousands of years of good public policy with biological parents which is what this country was built on,? David Stapp, who rejected R-71, said.
Both sides recognize its still early and with only 50-percent of the state?s votes counted its still too close too call. Even still the supporters of R-71 partied on through the night Tuesday; even with a narrow margin of victory the folks with Approve R-71 in Spokane were extremely optimistic about the referendum?s success.

dc.description.abstract | The following narrative details the life of Gerd von Halle. Gerd was a German Jew who moved to Amsterdam to escape Nazi persecution in 1933. The von Halle family was a prominent German Jewish family with origins dating back to the 17th century. Shortly after the invasion of Holland, Gerd and his family were torn apart by the Nazis. With the help of the Dutch Underground, Gerd and his mother Henriette survived the war. The narrative recounts the deaths of both his father and brother through recovered letters and personal testimony. The paper also contains correspondence between Eleanor Roosevelt and Under Secretary of State Sumner Welles. Both Roosevelt and Welles tried to help the von Halle family escape Europe. Gerd's story provides an opportunity to look into the paranoia, fear, and resolution of the Jewish people during the Holocaust. After living in hiding for nearly three years, Gerd and his mother were liberated in Amsterdam in May 1945. Gerd immigrated to the United States in 1946. The paper is joined with a visual guide containing letters, false identity papers, falsified affidavits, and a multitude of photographs. The narrative is a testament to perseverance, loss, and triumph. You may contact the author via email at email@example.com. | en_US |

1648 this is the story of a band of freemen who defied a tyrant states the opening caption of this 1963 Hammer swashbuckler, though in reality, its heroes are battling Cromwells soldiers in order to restore that very definition of democracy, freedom and equality, the Monarchy during the English Civil War. Theres no room for any ambiguity about who is on the right side here though, as the Roundheads, led by the unlikely figure of Lionel Jeffries, are all opportunist, hypocritical and cowardly, while Jack Hedleys rebels are as noble as they come. Hedley is the title character, real name Edward Beverly, who is leading a band of rebels as they attempt to free King Charles I from the Roundhead forces who have captured him. They are aided by Claire Judd (June Thorburn), daughter of Colonel Judd (Jeffries) a former Royalist turncoat, and by Captain Tom Sylvester (Oliver Reed) who briefly switches sides thanks to an infatuation with Claire. But when she declares her love for Beverly (about five minutes after meeting him, a plot point so ludicrous that even Reeds character remarks on it), he betrays the rebels. Meanwhile, Hammer regular Michael Ripper, in a bigger role than usual, wanders around in blackface as gypsy Pablo.
Unlike many of Hammers other tales of derring-do (including The Brigand of Kandahar, released alongside this on DVD), The Scarlet Blade is pretty dull stuff. Director John Gilling who, like Reed, was a Hammer stalwart at this time brings surprisingly little vitality to the story, given his other work for the company, and while Reed is as impressive as ever, his character is hard to take seriously, flipping between loyalties as he does. Worse still, the love triangle at the centre of the story is astonishingly uninvolving, and you can imagine rows of ten year old boys stamp their feet in frustration as this played out at the local cinemas.
In the end, the film fails because the battles scenes are strangely lacklustre, the characters on both sides too unsympathetic and the story too one dimensional. Whats more, being unable to avoid historical fact means that the heroes dont even achieve their goal.
The Scarlet Blade (or, as an alternative title sequence included here calls it, The Crimson Blade) is, unfortunately, something of a failure a rare misfire from a company whos 1960s action-adventure films are generally well worth seeing.

This time of year, I almost always do a major clean-out of closets, wardrobes, toy baskets. Wanting to start the New Year with a fresh, clean slate, I suppose.
Yesterday it was the Pantry. Today it will be the Hall Closet and perhaps one of the bedrooms upstairs.
I have no pictures of this cleaning-out project. You don't really want to see, do you?
I do, however, have before and after photos of a certain Someone being Cleaned Up.
I hope to return tomorrow feeling much fresher, saner, and cleaner.

4-28-11: I love scallion pancakes! I would've lowered the ratings if I made it as is. Just by looking, I know and agree with the flour/water being way off. Start with 1/4 cup water (if using the 1 cup flour;8 smaller pancakes or 4 reg sizes) and add more by a teaspoon at a time if needed. I also skipped the flour/veg oil crumb mixture; to me, it was unnecessary. 12-16-12: I didn't feel like kneading with my hand today, spin used the bread machine instead but used the whole amount of 3/4 water and added at least 3/4-1 cup flour.
Yummy! Mine came out crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside, and had a great taste. I did add about 3/4 c extra flour, and also doubled the salt.
I think the amount of flour is off. I had to add 3/4 cup more to make soft dough otherwise the dough will be runny. There won't be any kneading to do! I live in Shanghai and there's this thing called "Dong Bei Qiang Bing" and it looked a lot like the photo here but this definately wasn't it. Because this so-called "pancake" lacks in taste and need sauce to dip it in. I've had many Chinese street food but this one is not for me.

Title: | Distributed Network Structuring with Scopes |
Language: | English |
Abstract: | Traditionally, wireless sensor networks were based on the assumption that all sensor nodes are participating in a single global application. However, it is desirable to use sensor networks for multiple concurrent applications. A key factor is the ability to dynamically structure the network into groups of nodes according to certain criteria, to later interact with the group as a whole. In this paper we present Scopes, a modular framework to support concurrent sensor network applications. A scope is a programming abstraction to declaratively define groups, which once established allow data exchange among scope members. The main challenges in attaining these goals are network dynamics such as variable node density, topology changes and node churn. We demonstrate the feasibility of the concept by achieving rapid scope propagation, high scope reliability and efficient data exchange. |

On this page you will find various types of media, designed for removing solid particles from the water or creating large surface areas on which beneficial bacteria colonize. The EasyPro media can be used by do-it-yourselfers to build their own filters or as replacement media for existing filters. The key to good water quality is proper filtration. Ponds that are under filtered will likely be cloudy, green and unattractive. Likewise aquatic systems that do not have properly sized filters can have high ammonia, high nitrites and low feed conversions. In addition to good biological filtration, a UV sterilizer is another good option in many cases. A UV uses high intensity light to destroy algae cells that cause green water. They also eliminate disease causing pathogens, protecting fish health. A properly designed filtration system is vital to the success of any water system.

NEWS RELEASE – August 18, 2005 "PROFILE OF TEACHERS IN THE U.S. 2005" Results of a national survey of K-12 public school teachers conducted by the National Center for Education Information
NCEI SURVEY OF TEACHERS SHOWS AGING, INCREASINGLY FEMALE FORCE - PLANNING TO RETIRE SOON - OPPOSED TO STANDARDIZED TESTING AND OTHER SCHOOL REFORMS The K-12 public school teaching force in the United States is getting older, more female, slightly less White and more experienced. Teachers are generally satisfied with most aspects of their jobs, except salary and tests of student achievement. They teach primarily because they want to work with young people. They feel very competent in several aspects of teaching, including the subject matter they are teaching. They think "one's own teaching experience" is the most important variable in developing competence to teach. Public school teachers think "compliance with No Child Left Behind" is a serious problem. They think "standards of academic achievement should be flexible enough that every child can feel successful." They are strongly opposed to using "academic progress of students as measured by standardized test scores" to determine whether or not a teacher is qualified to teach. Forty percent of the current public school teaching force expects not to be teaching five years from now. These are among the findings of a national survey of 1,028 randomly selected K-12 public school teachers conducted by the National Center for Education Information, March 23 – June 22, 2005 and published in a 42-page report, PROFILE OF TEACHERS IN THE U.S. 2005. "The teaching force, since we first started surveying teachers two decades ago, has been pretty 'steady as she goes,' C. Emily Feistritzer, President of the National Center for Education Information, said in releasing the findings of the survey Aug. 18. She added, "That is all about to change very soon with a rapidly aging population of teachers who are retiring at increasing rates and who are increasingly being replaced by adults coming into teaching from other careers, who view education and teaching quite differently." NCEI conducted similar suveys of teachers in 1986, 1990 and 1996. Comparisons are made between teachers now and in those earlier years. In addition, from Nov. 12, 2004 – March 12, 2005, NCEI conducted a separate survey of teachers who are entering the profession through alternative routes to teacher certification and compared their responses, where applicable, with those of K-12 teachers in this latest survey. The National Center for Education Information (NCEI) is a private, non-partisan research organization in Washington, D. C. specializing in survey research and data analysis. Founded in 1979, NCEI has conducted several national and state studies which include: four national surveys of teachers, school administrators, school board presidents, state departments of education, local school districts and individuals interested in becoming teachers. NCEI has produced 38 data-based reports including: PROFILE OF TEACHERS IN THE U.S. 2005; PROFILE OF ALTERNATE ROUTE TEACHERS (2005); ALTERNATIVE TEACHER CERTIFICATION: A State by State Analysis, (published every year since 1990); PROFILE OF TROOPS TO TEACHERS (upcoming, 2005 and 1998); THE MAKING OF A TEACHER: A Report on Teacher Preparation in the U.S. (1999 and 1984); PROFILE OF TEACHERS IN THE U.S. (1996, 1990 and 1986); WHO WANTS TO TEACH?

A 38-year-old man has appeared in court charged with the murder of a mother found dead in her Wellington home yesterday.
Amanda Dawn Taufale, 33, died at her home on Sunrise Boulevard, Tawa shortly before 8am.
Police last night charged Ernest Smith with her murder after earlier appealing for public help to find him.
He appeared in Porirua District Court this morning and was remanded in custody until December 7.
Ms Taufale lived with her 15-year-old son Liam, who she had with separated husband David Taufale, and a six-month-old baby.
Police said both children were at home at the time of what they say was "a violent death".
Ms Taufale's mother-in-law, Sera Taufale, this morning said her grandson Liam had found his mother.
The news of her death had come as a shock.
"When the detective told me that sad thing happened, I felt like screaming my head off," Mrs Taufale said.
Amanda and David Taufale separated a long time ago but she remained close to her in-laws.
"We all get along with Amanda, she's a very kind-hearted woman. And every rugby game her son goes to, every game she's there. And she always comes and meets with us."
David Taufale is returning from Australia to be with his family this afternoon.
The officer in charge of the homicide investigation, Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Oxnam, said last night's arrest would come as a relief to Ms Taufale's family.
"The investigation team is still working hard to understand the exact events leading up to Amanda's death. At this stage, we are not looking for anyone else in connection with her death."
A post mortem examination will be carried out today.
Police are still appealing for anyone who saw a late model blue Toyota Hatchback, registration GMB108, to come forward.
Officers this morning spoke to commuters at Takapu Railway Station, seeking sightings of the car and its occupants since Wednesday.

Dynamic stereo microscopy for studying particle sedimentation |
Optics Express, Vol. 22, Issue 4, pp. 4671-4677 (2014)
Enhanced HTML Acrobat PDF (1715 KB)
We demonstrate a new method for measuring the sedimentation of a single colloidal bead by using a combination of optical tweezers and a stereo microscope based on a spatial light modulator. We use optical tweezers to raise a micron-sized silica bead to a fixed height and then release it to observe its 3D motion while it sediments under gravity. This experimental procedure provides two independent measurements of bead diameter and a measure of Faxén's correction, where the motion changes due to presence of the boundary.

Thread: Guidelines not neccesary?

Guidelines not neccesary?
I was having a conversation on Gaiaonline with some kids (bad idea) about the use of guidelines within their art, and a lot them seem to believe that they don't need to use guidelines to do good art.
I kinda have the feeling that these kids are just saying that to make themselves sound like "art prodigies" or something.
But really, I'm curious to know if it really is possible to create a gorgeous illustration without the aid of a few shapes and lines.
If there is, how in the hell does that happen?- Similar Threads

Usually it comes about from thousands of hours of making mistakes/ using guidlines.
August 26th, 2008 #3The ability to do it is due to having an incredibly well-developed sense of proportion, which anyone can achieve. All it takes is practice. It's probably what many people are referring to when they say someone "has a good eye."

August 26th, 2008 #4It's called direct drawing, basically just going right in and putting down the line or tone you need without starting with a block in. The skill to do it comes from thousands of hours of practice without using guidelines. I doubt anyone can make a really finished and detailed illustration without thumbnails, or lots of modifying of the original marks.

August 26th, 2008 #7Appreciation for artistic boundaries tend to form as an artist matures a bit... at least from what I've seen. Gaiaonline hardly calls out to me on that level. There's a reason I don't mod there anymore.
August 26th, 2008 #8Smaller, rough sketches where you work out ideas for the larger, final image. They're usually about the same ratio in size so you can blow them up, extemely rough, and you do more than one to find the best composition. It keeps you from spending too much time on a comp that isn't working (or that a client ends up not liking), and lets you see the overall design at a glance.
Like....these for James Jean's cover illustrations. They're especially useful in staging comic pages.

There are many, many methods of drawing. Most of these rely on some sort of predrawing, but not all do. Construction is useful for a lot of things, but other methods have their place as well. Chill out, and don't submit to dogma.

August 27th, 2008 #11Heh, if they think they don't need them, more power to them. Either they are really good, or they THINK they are really good and have some misguided ideas on art and "cheating". A lot of people have a LOT of crazy ideas about art. An artist shouldn't need reference, they should be able to make up a convincing image of absolutely anything, even if they've never seen it. They should be perfect and draw the right line, shape, value, and color the first time, without planning things out.
Let them think that. In a few years they'll be drooling over your superior work and wondering why they haven't progressed as far or as fast.

August 27th, 2008 #12That reminds me of this post on James Gurney's blog. Fortunino Matania was a 20th C historical illustrator. Per the post, his typical working method was to start with a blank piece of paper and, without any preliminary sketches at all, tear off these amazingly detailed tableaux.
Scroll down to see one in progress and be thoroughly demoralized.
I was once on the receiving end of a critique so savagely nasty, I marched straight out of class to the office and changed my major (sketchbook).
August 27th, 2008 #13This post remind me of 2 things:
1, I read about how Michelangelo approach his sculpture, while normally you would start with a general shape, and work your way in refining the details, but Michelangelo doesn't, he works in a way as if the figure "emerge" from the stone...
2, when I was in high school, I knew this guy from China Central Academy of Fine Arts. He talked about the contests they had in school, the students would paint a life size full figure from toe up, no guide line, no blocking in the big shape first, no reference, nothing, start with the toe and goes up. and the final painting is amazing.
My comment on the first story is: there's only ONE michelangelo; on the second story is: ......eh......what's the point for that?
LOL, I guess my point is, yes, it is definitely possible, and yes, a lot of people can do it...after many many many years of painful hard work with reference and guidelines...
August 27th, 2008 #14I almost never use any sketch lines cause I do everything directly in pen. Not at all because I think it's better or whatever, but I just like to work that way. Almost all the nudes, portraits, street sketches, still-lifes etc in my sketchbook are done directly in pen. I like the excitement, the concentration, the being in the moment and hit or miss aspects of it.
About the orginal question of 'how' - I don't know about others who work this way but I still look and measure things out to a degree. You just do it in your mind, not so much on paper. Previsualise and measure, hold it in your mind, and then put it down on paper. You can also use dots instead of lines to mark a spot or direction. I also often 'draw' the thing in my mind while looking at it before I start on paper. Measuring angles, squinting to see the most important features. Other than that I think you need to try to 'see' both the detail of what you're drawing, and the relation/size of it to the bigger picture/overall subject - at the same time. This helps a lot in getting proportions more or less 'correct'.
Other than that, instead of relating everything to the bigger enveloping shapes, you relate to whatever you have already put down - including the occasional dot - and to the edges of your paper. Figures for example I mostly start the head and hair shape, and relate the rest to that. Just working from top till bottom. It can be very punishing when you get a lot of misses, or 'alright' drawings but nothing really hot or whatever. Not all mistakes are bad though, and a lot of times I like the surprises I get cause they give me more than something I could think up myself.
It's come to the point that I found that when I use sketchy lines or envelope shapes as guidelines on paper, I have trouble to see my 'potential drawing'. It messes with the previsualisation.
To immediately contradict myself I have to say I found it a relieve to do some sketches with pencil and guide lines the other day. I still use it directly as a pen, but its great to have the freedom to erase or emphasise certain lines. Or to stretch or compress space a bit.
Of course I don't know but I think many people that work in pen work without guidelines. It's just another way of putting down what you see. Nothing better or worse compared to other methods. Try it out if you like, but don't worry if you don't. Do your own thing, try many others and enjoy the learning process.

The answer is yes? In the epilogue of vol 6, after she had been rejected by Shinobu and had been crying at that time, she got recovered after a talk with Hijiri. She then declared that even though Shinobu likes Hijiri( She thought that because when she asked Shinobu why took part in a demon hunt like that despise knowing it could cost his life and he answered that he wanted to repay Hijiri for helping him many times. That answer mmade Minami thought he likes Hijiri and burst out of tears right away saying:"...I dont like it.... I was supposed to be Shinobu-kun's bride....."), she would still chasing after him so that he would be enchanted by her sexy appeal again!!!

Hi there, everyone!! It's been a while since I last visited this thread. Men so sad to think about how this thread become so quiet again... Anyway I had been pretty busy dealing with school men, therefore my time to roll on this thread had been reduced but now I am back! Time to go wild with Tsuki Tsuki! Again guys!!! By the way, I have sorted some interesting intel on the net. As you all know that sooner or later you guys will witness the kissing scenes but I think I should sort out the number of kiss with heroines first!

Translators don't just pop out from thin air, you know? (=_=) In fact, saying something along the lines of "lol why nobody translates this" or "what are those translators doing out there lol?" could be very offensive for people that genuinely put effort to translating. But hey, rather than wasting your time whining continuously in some threads, why don't you just start off by learning some japanese? |

Am a bit rusty as to how many times a key phrase can be repeated.
Would this be acceptable:
"Buy electric widgets - large electric widgets, small electric widgets, electric toggles, electric woggles and more"
ie the keyphrase "electric widgets" repeated 3 times
and the keyword "electric" repeated 5 times
Your example above might be seen as a little overkill for someone scanning the SERPs. You want that title to grab the searchers attention.
You are targeting too many phrases in that one title. If this is the home page, then a title that targets the primary keyword phrase is in order. Save those other phrases for pages that are specific to them.
I'd do something like this for the home page...
<title>Buy Electric Widgets - Toggles - Electric Woggles</title>
You can repeat words, but I would not repeat a phrase. There should be distance between the repetition of words, they should not come back to back.
If the company name contains the keyword phrase, then it should be utilized strategically to create a context rich title.
<title>Buy Electric Widgets - California Electric Widget</title>
P.S. I did not repeat the phrase above. One is plural, the other singular.
[edited by: pageoneresults at 2:01 am (utc) on Feb. 5, 2004]
thanks for that
havent changed this tag in 3 years - done well till now, but feel it is time to refocus. Not catchy enough
I'm always skeptical about changing titles especially if they are performing well. You say till now, I'll assume something happened and the title is not performing as it once did?
To be honest it had about 7 keyphrases before
When I started all 7 were uncompetitive
Now they have been flooded with competition and the page only ranks for the main keyphrase.
Have to refocus and ensure that we dont lose rank on the main 3 keyphrases.
What do you think about this one?
<title>Buy Electric Widgets � Electric Toggles � Plastic Electric Widgets</title>
What is the competition doing? What are the titles like for the first 10 SERPs? Then, when you view source, how many characters of markup before you get to real content? And, is the primary keyword phrase in that first section of real content? There are many variables with the
All very good points. All of which I have to address. But you have to start somewhere :)
The idea is to refocus the front page to the core money 3 keyphrases - that i am pretty confident i can rank on.
Will ensure these keyword phrases appear high up in the content
Then use the same principle on the other key phrases elsewhere in the site
I am doing the plan now, and using this principle the site & navigation flows much more smoothly.
Fingers crossed :)

Green sweet smoothie
This is a delicious and great breakfast smoothie.
1 medium bunch of kale
2 apples
2 large carrots
1 banana
1 small piece ginger root
Slice 2 apples and 2 large carrots for juicer.
1 small piece of ginger root
1 medium bunch of kale, chop for blender
1 banana, sliced
I had to put the carrots, apples and ginger in the juicer, since my blender wouldn't handle it, I can't wait to get my vitamix. And I put the kale in the blender on puree setting, this seems to work best for me and at the last minute I put the banana in with the kale, then mixed it all together in my juice jar. This is a really yummy combination, nice and sweet for a Kale smoothie. Hope you like it.

I made this earlier today... it was FANTASTIC. You're right, very sweet (and banana-y) for a kale smoothie! Very filling, too!

Where must I eat (preferably locally produced and/or organic) in CT and RI?
- 17 Comments
- Follow
Hello Southern New England 'Hounds – I have a trip planned the end of June to visit relatives who live just outside of Albany. Along with visiting, my main focus is to do some road trips to chow. My destination is not so much a specific city but good food. Driving and dinning are two of my favorite things, great people and great food, it doesn't get much better. I need recommendations for spots with character and preferably locally produced and/or organic food. I would like to hit some chow spots in Connecticut and Rhode Island. As I read the board, I no doubt have to find out what this Apizza is all about and it appears ice cream will be included in the journey as well. Jfood if you are out there I follow you religiously on the MSP board. For a reference point I practically live at Brassa. Any help is much appreciated!
Go to New Haven for some pies, for sure. The best is Modern Apizza, at State Street and Humphrey Street. Order a white pie with mozz, fresh tomato, artichoke hearts, and basil -- heavenly. BAR, on Crown Street near College Street, runs a good second best. Don't miss out on a white pie with mozz, mashed potatoes, and bacon. Seriously. Many a local will tell you these are better than what you get on Wooster Street, and they'd be right.
Caseus is a *fantastic* neighborhood corner bistro type place in New Haven, on Trumbull Street and Whitney Avenue. They're also a cheese shop, and a lot of their wares are incorporated into the menu. They do a lot with local, seasonal ingredients as well. The perfect restaurant, to my mind: casual atmosphere, friendly folks, and absolutely superb food. You can't have a bad time there, or a bad meal. Don't miss it.
If you hit Providence, Sewaddee Thai Restaurant, on Hope St. near John St., is fantastic -- not much to look at, but wonderful authentic Thai.
re: MCU
I love Thai food - that might be my reason to visit Providence.
Thanks so much!!0
re: Td61
I took a peek at their menu - mouth started to water.
I've read about it in the past.
I will add it to my list.
Carole Peck's Good News Cafe (Woodbury, CT) is all about locally produced, organic food. And it tastes good, too. A little pricey, but I find it to be well worth it.
http://www.good-news-cafe.comIf you're headed for the coast at all, fresh lobster (or clams, or any fresh seafood) is a must-eat; but since I've been inlander for quite a while, I'll leave the specifics to the experts.
And for ice cream, I find Ferris Acres in Newtown to be a go-to place. They use their own cows' milk, make some interesting flavors, and it's just darn good stuff.

re: harrie
seriously, how can i pass up an ice cream shop that is on sugar street?

Hey ST and thanks for the compliment. Heading to MSP as he types.
In Fairfield County, lower west side of the state there are some places that jfood is friends with the owners and cannot post so others will chime in. For locavoring, there are not as many as in MSP, but some restaurants that use local grown items include Schoolhouse in Wilton and jfood will second the other poster's input of Carole Peck's Good News Cafe, although not in FFD CTY. Ice Cream is tough, if you are looking for an Izzy's equal. There is a place in Oxford, think it is called Mike's (jfood's MIL buys it for him all the time) and jfood tried Sunny Daes in Westport the other night and it was very good. Gellatissimo in New Canaan is outstanding.
Finding food like Brassa, Alma, BLG, Meritage is more difficult out here. Mind you there are great restaurants, and if you give a different genre many Hounds can help as well.

re: jfood
i want to eat at good news cafe now! especially after looking at the menu.
thanks for the input - much appreciated
i will be going to mertiage after i return to msp so it's all good.0-
re: sweet thang
jfood went to Harvest Supper in New Canaan last night. Majot positive recommendation as well.
You need to try Victory 44 back in MSP

Aberdeen are no mugs
While the first three points are on the board, Lennon expects more Neil Lennon was pleased to see just how well his side played against Hibs in their opening game of the SPL season - but he expects more when they face Aberdeen. Celtic have played four friendlies since the opening win at Easter Road. Although they suffered 2-0 defeats against Wolves, Inter Milan and Swansea, Lennon has used the games to get all of his squad involved and up to the required levels of fitness.Celtic have played eight friendlies in all and Lennon feels his players should be able to shine at Pittodrie. Lennon, who this week lost Glenn Loovens to a hamstring injury, said: "It will be a tough away game but I'm hoping the players will be up to speed by then - they should be with the football we've had. I've just tried to balance things off with not over-exerting them with the games and just trying to keep as many of them fresh for the game as we can." Aberdeen have not made the brightest of starts and have yet to score in the new league season, drawing with St Johnstone and being outplayed in defeat at St Mirren Park. But Lennon is wary of their wily and experienced managerial partnership, who have set about rebuilding their team to be more resilient this summer. Lennon said: "They have a good blend of experience and youth there. They are very good players, and I know they've lost (Chris) Maguire, (Paul) Hartley and (Sone) Aluko. But Archie Knox and Craig Brown are very experienced managers and I think they will improve a lot from last season. They haven't got off to a great start but it's very early days and I'm sure there will be an improvement from Aberdeen as the season goes on."

Kwame Harris talks about being gay
Former San Francisco 49ers offensive tackle Kwame Harris confirmed that he is gay in an exclusive interview with CNN and said he wished he would have come out while he was still playing.
"I want people, whether gay athletes, athletes still in the closet, or youths who are not sure what their sexuality is to know those are common feelings," Harris said. "Don't feel alone in having them."
Harris opened up about some of the challenges of being gay in the locker room and offered some support for future players who are unsure of their sexuality.
"You want to escape the despair and turmoil and your mind goes to dark places," Harris said of keeping his sexuality secret. "I'm happy today, and I'm glad they were just ideas and I didn't act on any of them."
"The cost was great (to) not speak candidly (and be) open about myself in complete manner," he added. "If I could have done it differently, I would have hoped I found the strength (to come out)."
Days before the Super Bowl, Harris was publicly outed after he reportedly was in an altercation with his former boyfriend. The topic drew a wide range of opinion, including a negative reaction from current 49er cornerback Chris Culliver.
"I don't do the gay guys man," Culliver said. "I don't do that. No, we don't got no gay people on the team, they gotta get up out of here if they do. Can't be with that sweet stuff. Nah…can't be…in the locker room man. Nah."
Culliver apologized for his comments and since has visited with a support organization for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender youth.

Intense hypoxic cycle exercise does not alter lung density in competitive male cyclists. | |
MedLine Citation:
PMID: 17219166 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE |
We tested the hypothesis that intense short duration hypoxic exercise would result in an increase in extravascular lung water (EVLW), as evidenced by an increase in lung density. Using computed tomography (CT), baseline lung density was obtained in eight highly trained male cyclists (mean +/- SD: age = 28 +/- 8 years; height = 180 +/- 9 cm; mass = 71.6 +/- 8.2 kg; VO2max= 65.0 +/- 5.2 ml kg min(-1)). Subjects then completed an intense hypoxic exercise challenge on a cycle ergometer and metabolic data, HR and %S(p)O2 were recorded throughout. While breathing 15% O2, subjects performed five 3 km cycling intervals (mean power, 286 +/- 20 W; HR = 91 +/- 4% HRmax) separated by 5 min of recovery. From a resting hypoxic S(p)O2 of 92 +/- 4%, subjects further desaturated during exercise to 76 +/- 3%. CT scans were repeated 76 +/- 10 min (range 63-88 min) following the completion of exercise. There was no change in lung density from pre (0.18 +/- 0.02 g ml(-1)) to post-exercise (0.18 +/- 0.04 g ml(-1)). The substantial reduction in S(p)O2 may be explained by a number of potential mechanisms, including decreased pulmonary diffusion capacity, alveolar hypoventilation, reduced red cell transit time, ventilation/perfusion inequality or a temperature and pH induced rightward-shift in the oxyhaemoglobin dissociation curve. Alternatively, the integrity of the blood gas barrier may have been disrupted without any measurable increase in lung density. |

Florida Amendment 2 (2010), constitutional text changes
Florida Constitution |
Preamble |
Articles |
The amended Article VII, Section 3 reads as follows:
NOTE: Amendments to the current section are underlined.
Section 3. Taxes; exemptions.--
(a) All property owned by a municipality and used exclusively by it for municipal or public purposes shall be exempt from taxation. A municipality, owning property outside the municipality, may be required by general law to make payment to the taxing unit in which the property is located. Such portions of property as are used predominantly for educational, literary, scientific, religious or charitable purposes may be exempted by general law from taxation. (b) There shall be exempt from taxation, cumulatively, to every head of a family residing in this state, household goods and personal effects to the value fixed by general law, not less than one thousand dollars, and to every widow or widower or person who is blind or totally and permanently disabled, property to the value fixed by general law not less than five hundred dollars. (c) Any county or municipality may, for the purpose of its respective tax levy and subject to the provisions of this subsection and general law, grant community and economic development ad valorem tax exemptions to new businesses and expansions of existing businesses, as defined by general law. Such an exemption may be granted only by ordinance of the county or municipality, and only after the electors of the county or municipality voting on such question in a referendum authorize the county or municipality to adopt such ordinances. An exemption so granted shall apply to improvements to real property made by or for the use of a new business and improvements to real property related to the expansion of an existing business and shall also apply to tangible personal property of such new business and tangible personal property related to the expansion of an existing business. The amount or limits of the amount of such exemption shall be specified by general law. The period of time for which such exemption may be granted to a new business or expansion of an existing business shall be determined by general law. The authority to grant such exemption shall expire ten years from the date of approval by the electors of the county or municipality, and may be renewable by referendum as provided by general law. (d) Any county or municipality may, for the purpose of its respective tax levy and subject to the provisions of this subsection and general law, grant historic preservation ad valorem tax exemptions to owners of historic properties. This exemption may be granted only by ordinance of the county or municipality. The amount or limits of the amount of this exemption and the requirements for eligible properties must be specified by general law. The period of time for which this exemption may be granted to a property owner shall be determined by general law. (e) By general law and subject to conditions specified therein, twenty-five thousand dollars of the assessed value of property subject to tangible personal property tax shall be exempt from ad valorem taxation. (f) There shall be granted an ad valorem tax exemption for real property dedicated in perpetuity for conservation purposes, including real property encumbered by perpetual conservation easements or by other perpetual conservation protections, as defined by general law. (g) By general law and subject to the conditions specified therein, each person who receives a homestead exemption as provided in section 6 of this article; who was a member of the United States military or military reserves, the United States Coast Guard or its reserves, or the Florida National Guard; and who was deployed during the preceding calendar year on active duty outside the continental United States, Alaska, or Hawaii in support of military operations designated by the legislature shall receive an additional exemption equal to a percentage of the taxable value of his or her homestead property. The applicable percentage shall be calculated as the number of days during the preceding calendar year the person was deployed on active duty outside the continental United States, Alaska, or Hawaii in support of military operations designated by the legislature divided by the number of days in that year. |
The proposed Article XII, Section 31
NOTE: If approved by voters, this entire section would be added to Article XII.
Section 31. Additional ad valorem tax exemption for certain members of the armed forces deployed on active duty outside of the United States. |

- learning a language - studying for medical and law exams - memorizing people's names and faces - brushing up on geography - mastering long poems - even practicing guitar chords!

- Avaneya: Viking Lander Remastered DVD
- Whether you are a fan of science fiction, a space–science enthusiast, hobbyist, photographer, gamer or a patron of grass–roots libre arts and technology, you are sure to find the first successful images from the surface of Mars highly captivating. These mind blowing images were taken by NASA's Viking landers during the highly ambitious, billion–dollar mission first launched in 1975. However, many images were nearly lost to history due to magnetic tape deterioration and archaic proprietary technology.
With NASA's blessing, our team developed the technology to recover many of these images. This research tool was part of the design phase of our parent project, Avaneya — our upcoming libre cerebral science fiction game for the GNU operating system set on Mars, described in the words of Richard Stallman as an exciting, pioneering project.
Originally an internal research tool, overwhelming public interest compelled us to release the technology on this DVD for all. Now everyone can relive the original breathtaking experience that captured the world's attention and marked the first successful moment in history that humanity saw Mars — not as a distant, impersonal, celestial body, beheld through a telescope for centuries, but as a tangible and alien world well within its reach.

- Bibfilex
- Bibfilex is a free bibliographic manager for GNU/Linux and Windows. It's useful to create and to manage archives of bibliographical items (books, articles, etc.) with possible attachments of any kind according to Biblatex structure and rules, but it can be used also with a wordprocessor like Writer or Word. Bibfilex may create and manage files which are catalogs of many items – also thousands of them. A file of Bibfilex is a database of SQLite (www.sqlite.org), a popular software whose data can be easily read and exported through different tools available on the Internet. In a Bibfilex file data are not stored according to Biblatex format, so it cannot be used as a bibliographic file in a Latex document. Anyway, Biblatex may export with a one-click functionality all or part of its content in Biblatex format file; this can be read directly with JabRef or used in a Latex document. At the same time, Bibfilex may import directly a JabRef database. The main features of the software are: store the items according to each one of the entry types described in the Biblatex manual (book, article, etc.); import the content of a file in Biblatex format (like a JabRef database); export data in a Biblatex file (like a JabRef database); import and export data from a Bibfilex file to another along with possible attachments; locate an item just typing its author name, title, etc.; filter the items selecting a keyword in a list; filter the items by the BibTex keys contained within a \cite{} or similar command in a Latex document; filter the items according to three different conditions, or modify manually the SQL statement of the filter to make it more suitable or complex; replace the citation commands (\cite, etc.) and \printbibliography command in a Latex document with extended citations and bibliography, which are composed according to a user defined pattern, and convert the resulting file in other formats with Pandoc (http://johnmacfarlane.net/pandoc); associate various attachments (files of every kind) to each item; the attachments are zipped and stored in a directory with the same name and path of the Bibfilex file in use, and automatically managed by the software; the number of attachments is limited only by the available disk space; activate autocompletion of data in each field with "Ctrl + Space"; create automatically unique BibTex keys according to a pattern defined by the user; specify the fields (columns) shown in the grid view of the data; forms to insert easily special characters and keywords; bookmarks, to go easily to a specified item; copy in the current item the content of some fields of another item referenced by the crossref field. Bibfilex has also the possibility to compose the citation of an item according to a user defined pattern and copy it in the clipboard in Latex or HTML format; in the last case, the citation may be pasted in a word processor like LibreOffice Writer mantaining font formatting (italic, small caps, etc.). This makes Bibfilex useful also for those who do not use Latex, but a word processor instead.
