The girls face Wasilla at the Dome in Anchorage on Friday and have their first conference game against Grace Christian on Saturday. The boys also play the Grizzlies on Saturday. The first home games will be April 28 and 30. Kings qualify at Spring Splash The Kachemak Kings made their last splash of the open age group swim season in Seward last Friday and Saturday. It was the last chance meet for swimmers to qualify for the Alaska Junior Olympic meet, which will be held in Anchorage at the end of the month. Kachemak Swim Club took 26 swimmers who swam a total of about 100 races, made 25 best times and 15 or 16 JO qualifying times. Head Coach Anna Borland-Ivy said every Homer swimmer made at least one best time or qualifying time. "In that way it was a real success," Borland-Ivy said. Four teams from Anchorage joined peninsula squads at the last minute to bring the number of swimmers to 168 and raise the level of competition. JOs is a statewide meet that requires a stringent qualifying time to enter. Swimmers may compete in a maximum of seven events. It will be held April 28-May 1 at the Bartlett pool in Anchorage. Homer swimmers with at least one qualifying time are Lauren Kuhns, with 6 qualifying times; Dana Olesch, 10; Marie Schmidt, 13; Cheyenne Smith, 6; Clayton Arndt, 3; Leo Castellani, 1; Richard Ginter, 12; Patrick Hannan, 3; Sergius Hannan, 9; Nathanael Hardy, 7; James Nagle, 6; Mark Nagle, 5; Charles Rohr, 3; Gregory Smith, 2; and Kyle Wentz, 8. Wrestlers wrangle folk and freestyle Popeye wrestlers faced 23 other wrestling clubs in the Arctic Warrior Ultimate Challenge at the Wasilla Middle School last Saturday. Athletes wrestled in both gyms and the cafeteria of the school. Novice to open age groups wrestled folkstyle and prebantam through intermediate age groups wrestled freestyle. Wrestling to first place were Austin Shafford, intermediate-62-63; Evan Crump, intermediate-68-71; Jadin Mann, intermediate-120-129; Teddy Croft, novice-81-84; Wyatt Alborn, novice-128-141; and Calvin Johnson, cadet-91-95.

This is the sixth book in the series, but my first read for the author. I like picking up books that are in the middle of a series to see if the book can stand on its own. I'm happy to say that this book does do that. There is sufficient character development and hints of back story to help me understand the story.
If you've never read any of the books in this series, feel free to start with any of them. Lutz does excellent character development to give each of her players a distinct voice. In this book the writing style is unique as it is done like a non-fiction book with footnotes and memos. I'll have to admit that I got tired of reading the footnotes which were meant to give more clarity. To me, going back and forth to them broke the flow of the story so after a while, I ignored them. The same goes for the memos, I tended to scan them.
In regards to the storyline and the characters, I have to say I had trouble getting through the book. There didn't seem to be any characters I wanted to root for. The storyline is about a family who own and operate a P.I. agency. The middle age parents act like spoiled brats, the investigator sisters lack any sense of responsibility and the female protagonist doesn't seem to have a clue about running the business other than accidentally falling into the answers. When the big case was solved, it didn't do anything for me. With the story finally ended, I was elated it was done. I didn't feel that sadness of completing a book and saying goodbye to the characters that I had come to know and love.
What did you think of this review?

In Reply to: Did you not realize that Muslims were also killed in the 9-11 attacks?... posted by annie on August 8, 2010 at 8:28 pm:
Your understanding of this ussue-- and Mayor Bloomberg's and those who support the building of this mosque near Ground Zero-- are dangerously naive. The building of this "community center" is nothing more than what Muslims have ALWAYS done--upon conquering a territory, they erect a mosque upon their enemy's sacred territory. It's a monument to America's submission to the idea that Muslims are a peaceful religion. They aren't, and they never have been. Yes, there are some here who aren't terrorists... they are what I'd call "westernized Muslims" who don't practice their religion fully. The Jihadists--they are fully committed and practicing Muslims, faithful to the Koran's directive to kill infidels. Where is the funding coming from for this mosque? Any way to make sure it's not coming from terrorist organizations? Any assurance that those in charge of building it don't have any terrorist ties? Ummm... no. There's a Greek Orthodox church near ground zero that many in the community have been wanting to restore since the 9/11 attack. It has NOT been given the green light to be rebuilt. If this issue was about freedom of ALL religions to worship, that church would also be on schedule to be reconstructed it's not. Christianity is a religion that seeks to bring people to Christ out of love for the sinner, out of gratitude for the forgiveness God granted us through Christ's sacrifice, that we should share the gospel with others. Islam is a religion that seeks to destroy other cultures that won't submit out of hate for that region's freedom or religious bent. One religion wanting to spread because of love and forgiveness, one religion wanting to annihilate infidels out of hate and fear. NOT the same at all!!

Tommy Clack permanently banned from driveway paving in NC
Tommy Clack permanently banned from driveway paving in NC
Release date: 6/7/2010
Clack found guilty of contempt for violating previous court orders
: A contractor with a long history of pressuring consumers into expensive driveway paving work is now banned from all residential paving in North Carolina, Attorney General Roy Cooper announced today.
"We will come down hard on businesses that repeatedly violate the law, ignore court orders, and deny consumers their rights," Cooper said.
At Cooper's request, Wake County Superior Court Judge Robert H. Hobgood today found Tommy Edward Clack guilty of civil contempt for violating earlier court orders and issued a permanent ban on all residential paving work by Clack and his associates. Clack has also been ordered to pay $27,500 in refunds to four consumers who filed affidavits in the case. If he does not pay by July 7, he will be jailed in Wake County until he comes up with the money.
The court had previously ordered Clack to stop soliciting or performing any new residential driveway paving work between May 14 and today's hearing. Prior to that, Clack was under a November 2008 court order to wait at least four days after a written contract was signed before beginning any paving work in North Carolina.
However, Cooper's office today presented affidavits from consumers who alleged that Clack had violated the previous court orders, charging them thousands of dollars for shoddy work.
A Lillington woman said in her affidavit that Clack approached her 75-year-old mother about paving her driveway on May 19. Clack convinced her to pay $8,500 for the paving work, then backdated the contract to make it appear that the work was paid for prior to May 14.
Three other consumers filed affidavits stating that Clack violated the November 2008 court order, including a Fayetteville woman who is 90 and a couple in their 70s who paid Clack $7,500 to pave their driveways in April.
In each case, Clack promised consumers a good deal because he claimed he was already in the neighborhood and had asphalt leftover from other jobs. Clack's crew then began work as soon as the contract was signed and completed the job in two hours or less using poor quality paving materials.
Under state law, consumers have three days to cancel most purchases sold door-to-door, but many consumers who have complained about Clack said they didn't think they could cancel once the paving was underway. Consumers who tried to cancel and get a refund reported that Clack was uncooperative.
Following the November 2008 court order, Clack moved his business to South Carolina and currently lives in Myrtle Beach. He faces a four-count criminal indictment out of Florence County, SC for defrauding four South Carolina victims out of sums ranging from $16,000 to $30,000.
The Attorney General's Consumer Protection Division has the authority to bring civil cases against unfair and deceptive business practices. In North Carolina, local District Attorneys have the authority to bring criminal charges.
Clack initially operated in the Wilmington area. Cooper first filed suit against Clack in 2007, winning an injunction in March 2008 that compelled him to pay $50,000 and correct previous substandard paving jobs. Clack then relocated to Greensboro, where more problems surfaced, which led to the November 2008 court order explained above.
"Do your homework before you agree to pay any money for home repairs," Cooper cautioned consumers. "If need work done on your home, get several written estimates and check references before you sign a contract. Don't just go with the first company that comes knocking on your door."
To check out a home repair company or file a complaint against one, North Carolina consumers can call1-877-5-NO-SCAM toll-free within state. Consumers can also
file a complaint online

Exco's increasing exploration at its North Queensland tenements is bearing fruit, with new iron oxide copper gold targets defined at the Mt Isa Inlier that bear similarities to Xstrata's Ernest Henry mine.
Exco Resources (ASX: EXS) recently sold the Cloncurry Copper Project in north-west Queensland to Xstrata for $175 million, with remaining tenements including Cloncurry, Hazel Creek and the Soldiers Cap project areas.
Exco's increasing exploration at its North Queensland tenements is bearing fruit, with new iron oxide copper gold targets defined at the Mt Isa Inlier that bear similarities to Xstrata's Ernest Henry mine.
Exco Resources is set to begin mining at the Vertigo gold project in South Australia this month. The company has strengthened the development of the project with a A$1.3 million commitment on exploration by Polymetals Mining in exchange for an increase in interest to 50%.
A 29% resource upgrade also includes an increase in overall grade at Mt Colin, with the high grade zone still open at depth. An earlier Scoping Study on the previous resource indicated robust economic potential for Mt Colin. Work is now in progress on the underground mining design.
Fox Davies $0.88 price target for Exco is a 33% premium to the last traded price. Last week Exco announced that it has entered into an agreement with Xstrata to sell the Cloncurry Copper Project for A$175 million.
The Exco board believes the $175 million proposal from Xstrata is in the best interests of all shareholders, and recommends that shareholders approve the proposal. Following the sale, Exco will have around $220 million in cash.

Exco Resources Ltd (EXS) is an Australian focused ASX listed exploration and mining company that has been operating for over ten years. Exco focuses on resource and project development through its team of experienced geologists, engineers and commercial specialists. The Company is currently focused on its White Dam Gold Project in South Australia, and its Cloncurry Project in north-west Queensland.
The White Dam Gold Production Joint Venture
(Exco 75%, Polymetals 25%)
The White Dam Gold Project is located in South Australia approximately 80km west of Broken Hill. The project has been developed as an unincorporated joint venture between Exco (75%) and the recently listed Polymetals (25% - ASX:PLY). The project contains a depleted resource inventory of 6Mt @ 0.98g/t Au for 188,700oz contained (see Table 1).
Since pouring first gold in April 2010, production rates and margins from White Dam have been tremendous, and well above expectations. In November 2010 the Company announced that it had completed the required gold repayments nine months ahead of schedule. A combination of better than expected production outcomes and higher than envisaged gold prices had allowed the loan to be repaid after only seven months of production.
Having repaid the Barclays gold loan 9 months ahead of schedule, the project is now debt free and with average life of project operating costs of

The New Cloncurry Project (Exco 100%)
The royalty arrangement on sulphide ores from the Great Australia resource is expected to deliver about $30M (based on current prices) in free cash over the next three to four years providing a stream of sustaining income for the Company. At the Mt Colin copper-gold deposit the resource has recently been re-estimated resulting in a 29% increase in the overall resource to 1.92Mt @ 2.59% Cu. A scoping study on the previous resource indicated robust economic potential. Further work is currently in progress for underground mining design.
The Cloncurry Project hosts many prospects where drilling to date has intersected significant mineralisation. Throughout 2011 Exco has been proactively engaged in a programme of exploration activities across a number of high priority targets within these prospects (see Figure below for location map of the Cloncurry Project highlighting key prospects). Key targets include:
Salebury: RC drilling by Exco has revealed significant mineralisation with a best intersection of 30m at 1.93% Cu & 1.25g/t Au. Recent results include: · 48m @ 2.18% Cu & 1.97g/t Au Tanbah: Fisher Creek: The Fisher Creek prospect is located approximately 25km east of Cloncurry. The majority of drilling to date has focused on the area of subdued magnetics east of the Mount Margaret Fault where significant mineralisation has been intersected including: · 28m @ 3.18% Cu & 2.77g/t Au Pumpkin Gully: The Pumpkin Gully prospect is located 15km east of Cloncurry. Two phases of RC drilling has been completed by Exco, with significant mineralisation intersected. Best intersections reported to date are: · 24m @ 0.83% Cu & 0.26g/t Au During 2011 Reverse Circulation (RC) drilling was resumed at a number of prospects in the Pumpkin Gully project area of the Cloncurry Project including Salebury, Uncle Toms, Fisher Creek West and Tanbah North. (see Figure below for location map of the Pumpkin Gully area). Drilling is planned for numerous other prospects in the Weatherly Creek area including Canteen, Kangaroo Rat, Wallace South and m
White Dam resource (which is depleted to June 2011) was re-estimated in October 2010 with a cut off grade of 0.3g/t.
Vertigo was re-estimated in January 2011 with a cut off grade of 0.4g/t.
Copper, Gold, Uranium, Zinc, Lead, Magnetite
The Cloncurry Project is centred near the town of Cloncurry and covers over 1,920km2. The Project encompasses the Tringadee, Pumpkin Gully and Soldier's Cap project areas, including six deposits hosting JORC compliant resources, with a royalty arrangement over 1.7Mt the Great Australia Resource (see Table below). Resources delineated for the project to date total 7.65Mt @ 1.69% Cu & 0.52g/t Au containing 111,400t copper and 130,000oz gold.
· 20m @ 2.07% Cu & 1.53g/t Au
The occurrence of broad copper intersections and strongly elevated cobalt concentrations in the metasediments, including an interval of 33m @ 0.12% Co, supports Exco's belief that the Tanbah prospect has the potential to host an economic Cu-Co-Au deposit. Other signification intersections include:
· 43m @ 0.65% Cu & 0.27g/t Au
· 202m @ 0.33% Cu, 0.34g/t Au & 0.07% Co
· 43m @ 1.03% Cu & 0.67g/t Au
· 24m @ 3.20% Cu & 1.0g/t Au
· 10m @ 0.67% Cu & 0.32g/t Au

Kill me. Just kill me now.
I'm sorry, because I'm St. Louis born and bred, but Imo's is shit. St. Louis has no idea what good pizza is, and it breaks my heart, because I could easily eat on The Hill until I drop and die happy.
@Ericb1980 @athooks Does Matheny even seem, in your wildest dreams, like the kind of person who would even CONSIDER hitting the pitcher eighth? He could literally be replaced with a sheet of old-school baseball rules taped to a plank of wood with a neutral face painted on it. He refuses to deviate, innovate, or even think at all, playing every situation the exact same regardless of how idiotic it might be in the moment. Just look at how he doesn't seem to treat a postseason game any differently than a regular season game, trying insanely to play for extra innings while in an elimination game!
I've been saying this for THREE YEARS.
Mike's a great guy, don't get me wrong, but he is completely out of his depth in a major league clubhouse. He doesn't know tactics, he doesn't know how to plan matchups or manage a bullpen, he uses NO moves on the basepaths (doesn't steal, doesn't bunt for a hit or squeeze, doesn't hit and run), and he's apparently incapable of either firing a team up to play or getting them ready to win fundamentally.
I've always said that he should be in the minor leagues working his way up like anyone else. He got hella lucky, because he inherited the most robust, deepest, and hardest-hitting club in the majors, as well as coming in riding the coattails of MLB's departed Mad Scientist, LaRussa. The past successes have very little to do with him (or Mabry, that guy's as useless as a coach as he was in a batter's box to begin with), and most of the humiliating ways we get eliminated in postseason can and should be laid squarely at his feet. #SendMathenyDown2015
Personally, I just hate Tim McCarver becuase he's an idiot. Granted, he'll fit right in alongside Shannon. The two of them can yuck it up about the old days and forget there's a game going on, occasionally coming back long enough to get a rule interpretation wrong before the audience drinks themselves into a stupor. I absolutely do not just find it easier to bitch. Jack Buck was the voice of my childhood. I still like watching Dodgers games, and even the Mariners just for the broadcast guys. Heck, I watched the Blues when I could and the announcing was perfect. Just because we're negative on the Cards team doesn't mean they're NOT actually that bad.
Yes, dear God, yes. I've been waiting for this for most of a decade: a genuine speed merchant wearing the Birds on Bat. Let him run, Mike. Let the man run.
I dunno how MO's economic policies are treating businesses, but IL's are absolutely draining the lifeblood out of the workforce, especially those who would normally travel to work in StL. Can't imagine that's helping the downtown area any either.
Personally, I'd like to see us use him to acquire some serious speed, most likely in a backup outfield spot. Baserunning has consistently been StL's Achilles heel, and a good runner could do things like open the infield for guys like Adams.
As much as I like the guy—and he is a great guy—we have an overabundance of young talent on the mound, and there's just not enough room for everyone. He has the most value to other teams, and thus has the most potential to help the team by trade.
How could the implementation of this rule be hard? It's the same way high school, college, and some semi-pro leagues have been doing it for decades upon decades. The high school and college method of calling the play at the plate makes it pretty darn simple:
1) The runner can not target the catcher. In any way. Headfirst above the ground is almost always an out, because there's literally no reason to dive instead of slide if you're trying to be safe. Besides, you're more likely to be safe if you slide for the back corner of the plate anyway.
2) The catcher has to have the ball in his glove before he can shift towards the runner, and until then, there has to be daylight to the plate. It doesn't have to be at a certain point of the plate, but there has to be room for the runner to slide to the plate. Between the legs, behind, in front—doesn't matter.
3) And, for the umpires, if anyone violates point 1, he gets run. No debate. Anything that looks like targeting the catcher should be dealt with immediately and firmly. Blocking the plate is punished by allowing the run and the catcher getting slid into, which will likely hurt when the guys are as big as they are in The Show. As for who targeted whom, it's honestly not that hard to tell, even without slo-mo replays. You can see it coming as an umpire, as long as you're in the correct position.
I see no way this is a bad thing, except for the kind of brain-numbed concussion magnets who think that tackling in football can be "totally safe." Teams will feel safer about investing in high-dollar, high-skill catchers. Heck, I'd bet Brian McCann could even hold for more money now that the chance of him having his career ended on a collision is out the window. And as you said, the Birds come out the absolute winners on this deal.
I would rather chew broken glass than listen to McCarver ramble on. Can you imagine him and Mike "Can you believe I'm sober" Shannon in the same booth?! We would go entire innings without any play by play as they just sit and entirely forget the game exists together.
Odds that Wainright puts a gun to Matheny's head and demands the ball if this goes to game seven = 35:1
Seriously, though, if the Birds leave one more runner on third with less than two outs, I'm going to eat a pillow in rage.
I'm gonna take the total wins for the Cards, multiply by the average team slugging percentage, subtract out all of Wainright's projected wins, divide out one-tenth of a point for every season ticket holder... then I'll throw that number out entirely and just say 170. Cause I'm lazy, too.
42. It's never let me down before.
It's a shame TLR didn't raise up a protege while he was around this year. Would have made things so much easier if there was one other person in the world who knew why he changed pitchers when he did.
Seriously, though, what are the odds of Duncan sticking around next season, with his wife's health issues? I'm thinking not great. So we might as well start kicking around ideas for both slots.
Liliquist will likely get the pitching coach job full time, as he probably should. I dunno if I see Jose as a manager, but I'd love to give him a chance and find out. I think StL would be more kind to Jose if he comes in and has a bad first season than someone like Riggleman.
Fantastic. Because growing up with this game didn't make me suicidal enough. Now I can relive the trauma! :D
Albert will go on to have a .300/30 kind of year, I'm almost certain of it, but you're right; his numbers almost certainly show the kind of decline to his career numbers that are giving his agent an apopleptic fit about now. It's going to come up again around November when they go back to the table, and the Birds are going to remind him how much of a disappointment he was, for however long this lasts.
Whichever, my skipping over Albert to grab Matt Holliday with my first fantasy pick is looking pretty damn smart about now.

JoJo - Hollywood (New Song!)
Here's some new JoJo music for y'all - This track entitled "Hollywood" surfaced online moments ago - Maaaajor! Stunning ballad right here - JoJo slayed in every possible way - I was actually expecting something more upbeat pop-ish without much depth in the lyrics, all from the title, but it was the contrary. This cut is a powerful ballad with a personal meaning to JoJo - I deduce - where she sings about the ups and downs/the positive and negative of the glamorous Hollywood. JoJo's vocals were beyond blazing hot. "Hollywood" could be an unreleased track from a previous 'era' but it so sounds new to me. Could it reflect what JoJo will deliver on her upcoming studio album "All I Want Is Everything"?. Only time will tell.

Salman Rashidi 'SUNBEAM'
Having loved to draw and paint since childhood, Salman Rashidi was a "born artist". His uncle bought him paints and pencils, encouraging the blossoming artist in him that his parents tried to discourage. While studying Electrical Engineering at the University of Idaho in the early 1980s, Rashidi learned scrimshaw while on summer break in Hawaii, from friends who, unbeknownst to him at the time, he would be inspired by, and thank, forever. At the time, Rashidi was living in the Pacific Northwest. As his skill in scrimshaw grew, he realized he would have a better chance at selling his art in New England, and, in 1987, he moved to Massachusetts. Rashidi has enjoyed much success in the Northeast. His passion for the "art of the whalers" has been matched by the enthusiasm of the collectors of his artwork. Living in New England, says Rashidi, has given him the opportunity to be exposed to the oldest of U.S. history, among that being preserved ships of the old and rich whaling industry, as well as seafaring vessels of pre-Industrial Revolution days. "New England is inundated with these, as well as a rich variety of marine life and land wildlife, which I also portray in my art," Rashidi proudly states. His favorite art, in fact, is North American wildlife, which he does with much zest and skill. Rashidi was granted an Award of Excellence at the 1990 Mystic International Marine Art competition, for his entry Whaling Bark California, done on a fossilized Eskimo ice axe. In 1997, Rashidi was commissioned to scrimshaw a plaque centerpiece for an Associated Press Lifetime Achievement Award, which was presented to Walter Cronkite. Rashidi has enjoyed his work for many years, and derives the greatest pleasure in knowing the patrons of his art feel the same.

Sold my terrace through Callaghers. I was initially concerned about not using a franchised agency but in hindsight I needn't be. From the outset they seemed to be more eager and work harder for you from beginning to end. They were GENUINELY friendly (ie. not cheesey pleasant) and professionally knowledgeable about all things inner-west. During the sale process they promptly briefed me after EVERY single inspection and provided a written report weekly identifying all the prospective buyers and details of the calls they made to them. Some agents just aren't that transparent because they don't want to do all the work or they get their office juniors to make the calls. Most agents will sell you the the 'possibility' of free newspaper editorial space but Callaghers actually got it for me in two newspapers. In the end we got a great result and we couldn't be more satisfied. It truly was tremendously thorough effort from a very professional team. I couldn't fault them. And just to attest to how thorough they are, they spent a few hours chaperoning in my new buyer when they moved in, well after the sale was complete. Truly nice guys !!!

Although fire is now rarely used in synthetic chemistry, it was not until Robert Bunsen invented the burner in 1855 that the energy from this heat source could be applied to a reaction vessel in a focused manner. The Bunsen burner was later superseded by the isomantle, oil bath, or hot plate as a source for applying heat to a chemical reaction. In the past few years, heating and driving chemical reactions by microwave energy has been an increasingly popular theme in the scientific community. This nonclassical heating technique is slowly moving from a laboratory curiosity to an established technique that is heavily used in both academia and industry. The efficiency of "microwave flash heating" in dramatically reducing reaction times (from days and hours to minutes and seconds) is just one of the many advantages. This Review highlights recent applications of controlled microwave heating in modern organic synthesis, and discusses some of the underlying phenomena and issues involved.

This player has not allowed any home runs.
Much of the data on Baseball-Reference.com's Home Run Logs comes from the Tattersall/McConnell Home Run Log, a database of all homers hit in the major leagues since 1876. This project was begun in the 1940's by John C. Tattersall and was continued after Tattersall's death in 1981 by Bob McConnell, one of SABR's original 16 members. David Vincent, another SABR member, has since assumed the leadership of the project. Baseball-Reference.com has licensed this remarkable database from the Society for American Baseball Research. All credit for the data therein goes to the intrepid researchers who digitized this data from archival sources.
For years from 1914 to 2015, RetroSheet play-by-play data has been used whenever the home run occurred in a game for which we have complete play-by-play data.
There are a handful of cases where the home run logs totals do not agree with the totals on our player pages. We are working to reconcile all of those differences, but believe that in all cases the Home Run Encyclopedia is correct.

Williams skit lights up dull morning showBy |
Brian Williams, nationally recognized television anchor, meet Brian Williams, nationally recognized television anchor.
Like something out of a Star Trek parallel universe episode, CTVs Olympics main man met his NBC Nightly News namesake on TV Monday, the first time the two Brian Williamses (or Brians Williams?) have been face-to-face.
Fortunately there was no cataclysmic, matter-meets-antimatter explosion.
It was a funny, clever bit that aired first on CTVs Olympic Morning program I bet youre getting a foot massage while youre on the air American Brian says to Canadian Brian after a tour of the latters luxurious studio and if you missed it, you can check it out on CTVs website here: http://bit.ly/twobrians.
But stuff like this is the exception to the rule for the pre-noon programming block. Im not sure why CTV felt the need to fill these long, empty hours before events get under way on the west coast, instead of just running regular non-Olympic programming. On a morning that saw egregious fluff like Ben Mulroney chatting with Brent Butt and Nancy Robertson (is network cross-promotion now an Olympic sport?) or the giggling trio of Tanya Kim, Leah Miller and Jeanne Beker being interviewed (I couldnt reach the remote control quickly enough to turn off the TV, so I simply clawed my eyes out instead), the Williams-squared segment was one of the few bright spots. Live long and prosper, Brian. You too, Brian.
Speaking of American news personalities playing nice with Canucks, did you catch Tom Brokaws bit on NBC in which he explained Canada to Americans? Part elementary school refresher course and part Tourism Canada commercial, it comes across as someones kindly grandpa trying to describe to a child where babies come from. Did you know, for instance, that its cold in Canada? Or that we fought in the Second World War? Learn these and other illuminating facts by watching the video here: http://bit.ly/brokaweh
I can see Torontos CN Tower from the windows of my living room, and at night Ive been wondering why the lights around the base of the observation deck have been spinning at seemingly random speeds, sometimes glacially slow, sometimes insanely fast. Turns out the lights are being powered by brainwaves from Vancouver. (Out of a sense of patriotic unity with west coast brethren, I will avoid inserting the obvious jokes here.)
It seems visitors to Ontario House at the Winter Games are able to try on a hi-tech, brainwave-measuring headset, and use the power of their minds to control lightshows on the CN Tower, the Parliament buildings in Ottawa or Niagara Falls. In the case of the CN Tower, they can control the speed of the spinning lights around the base of the main pod by either relaxing (to slow them down) or concentrating (to speed them up). It must be visitors using the headsets, because Vancouverites themselves are so laid back, those lights would never move.

No, nowhere near. I'd rather adopt a filesystem like XFS then waste

I decided to make another epic trailer. This one is a more percussion based. It was kind of a challenge to write... I sort of leapt into writing it without any inspiration or ideas. It wound up becoming a jumbled mess... But I pressed on.
I think it turned out okay in the end...
I hope you guys enjoy it! :D
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Great job! Some parts of the song were a bit too soft for my liking (in terms of this type of music) but overall the piece was great and I thoroughly enjoyed it. Keep up the good work :)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
What program do you use? This sounds amazing.
Thanks a lot! :)
I used Logic Pro 9. But honestly, I think the sound could be achieved using any professional Digital Audio Workstation. I also used several sample libraries, and implemented several mixing and mastering techniques I learned from Mitchel Pigsley's YouTube videos.
Here is the mixing video: http://youtu.be/_EtG9cbH9rc
To be honest, when I was using the techniques, I felt like they weren't working all too well, but by the end, I realized that I had gotten a better sound than I usually did. So I think they worked!
I hope that information can help you! If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask! :D
Thank you for the review!

These essential facilities are found alongside roads, parking lots, and other impermeable surfaces to control the flow of rain water during rainfall events. As rainwater collects onto these surfaces - dirt, grit, sand and other debris are washed into the catch basins and flow down the storm sewer. The stormwater is ultimately discharged into a retention basin, creek, river or other location.
While most of the storm pipes connecting the catch basins to the discharge area are designed to self clean, it is fairly routine for the pipes and catch basin to be maintained with vacuum cleaning, and high pressure water jetting. Russell Reid provides both of these services together or separate with our fleet of Combination Sewer Jet Vac's. As necessary, we will also arrange transportation and disposal of any waste or debris collected in our Roll-Off Trucks and Containers.
Since storm water run off is now known to be a major source of non-point source pollution, new regulations and system designs often require routine cleaning. Motor oil, industrial lubricants, solid waste and other contaminants are often found in catch basins and retention areas that used to manage stormwater flow. Proper care and maintenance of this important infrastructure is vital to your real estate investment and the protection of our environment.
Excellent and professional.
- Lisa C.

Are You Excited For Tim Burton's Parade Float?
By Mack Rawden 4 years ago
With time and disposable income, celebrities get up to some strange pursuits. Often, these asides are irritating because most people arent good at multiple things. I might like to watch James Franco act, but that doesnt mean I like it when he tries to sell me invisible art. This line between hobby and waste of time can often be sketchy, but now and again, a celebrity takes on a side project that feels completely right. This is one of those cases.
Tim Burton has announced hes designing a float for the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade with its own character backstory. Dubbed B Boy, the sad flying object was stitched together with the fragments of deflated balloons left behind at childrens birthday parties at a hospital. He always dreamed of pleasing children like the other balloons, but because of his rough exterior and jagged teeth, he was kept away from the kids. Now, thanks to Burton, hes been given a second chance and will soar high above New York on Turkey Day. Leave it to Tim Burton to go to the darkest possible place to celebrate Thanksgiving, but I must admit, I do like the idea of having a full history to go with a parade float. It adds some meaning and should help it shine through the monotony of seeing so many blown up characters in a row. I cant wait to see Burtons creation join the other floats. What do you think? Are you excited enough about this to watch the Macys Day Parade? Sound off by voting in the poll below
Will You Watch The Macy's Parade?

ProxySniffer ™ is a professional, powerful and full-featured Web Load and Stress Testing Tool, available for a reasonable price. Our Web load and stress testing tool is used by many leading companies with great success to optimize their Web applications. We have excellent references in this specialized area of performance testing. ProxySniffer ™ is especially suited for testing and optimizing the performance of:
ProxySniffer ™ contains a unique powerful GUI which does not require you to learn any scripting language. And as well, no implementation of complicated regular expressions is required, even if you need to extract and assign dynamic session parameters from/to CGI-Parameters, HTML-Forms, JSON and XML data. All of the rich product features are directly accessible with few mouse clicks from the high-performance, user-friendly graphical user interface. This saves you time and money, and significantly simplifies the workflow for performing load tests.
During the load test execution ProxySniffer collects more measurement details than many other load testing tools and displays all collected data in form of meaningful charts and tables - in real time during the load test execution - and as customizable PDF report after performing a load test. Based on the in-depth measurement results of ProxySniffer, you can clearly identify performance bottlenecks and figure out if they are caused by the network layer or by a misconfiguration of the Web server, or are caused by an incorrect programming of the Web application. After tuning your Web application with ProxySniffer, up to 50 times more Web users can be processed using the same hardware - meaning no need to purchase more expensive servers.
The load can be generated either from your internal machines located inside your company, or can be alternatively generated from cloud-based load generators that are instantly available at your disposition in all Amazon data centers.
More than 1,000,000 (one million) simultaneous users that execute real Web sessions can be simulated by ProxySniffer - inclusive login to protected Web pages and full support for user specific session data, marking it an ideal and powerful tool for analyzing and testing the performance and stability of large-scale Web applications.
ProxySniffer runs out-of-the-box and can be installed easily and quickly on Windows, Linux, Solaris and Mac OS X systems. |
Universal HTTP(S) Proxy Recorder and Integrated Web Crawler The recording of load test scenarios occurs through pre-surfing with Any Web Browser like Firefox, Safari or Internet Explorer via a universally useable HTTP(S) Proxy-Recorder . The recording also includes AJAX calls and requests made from Pop-up Windows. XML and SOAP messages of Web Service Client Applications can also be recorded. Alternatively, load test scenarios for Web portals can be recorded automatically without any effort by using an Integrated Web Crawler . Powerful GUI Proxy Sniffer works quite different than other load testing tools which are only capable to generate directly one-level code. On a first level the recorded raw data from load test scenarios is initially retained in virtual memory where it can be extended and post-processed via a powerful and easily understood GUI. For example, additional requirements such as logins from individual user accounts, or the handling of dynamically-exchanged session parameters (e.g. .NET __VIEWSTATE parameters), can be efficiently implemented with a few mouse clicks. After all aspects of the load test have been defined in the GUI, the load test program is automatically created on a second level in the form of performance-optimized Java code. The automatically-created load test program can be run directly from the GUI on any load generator, and will not require any further manual modification. No scripting and no programming knowledge is required in order to use the Proxy Sniffer product. Wide-Ranging Support of Web Standards and Authentication Methods Proxy Sniffer supports a wide range of Web standards. This means that it is possible to achieve a near-perfect simulation of the behavior of natural Web users and their Web browsers, without the need for using a full Web browser process (per user) during the execution of a load test. This saves CPU time and memory on the load generating systems and effects that each load generator is able to simulate hundreds or even thousands of concurrent Web users. The following Web Standards are integrated inside the Proxy Sniffer product and are also supported by the GUI:
Plug-ins have the major benefit of being reusable. Once developed, a plug-in can be reused in each and every load test program. The integration of a plug-in occurs via the GUI, and can be easily achieved without any programming knowledge. As an example, the following functionality can be realized during a load test by implementing your own plug-ins:

I want people to walk around delusional about how great they can be - and then to fight so hard for it every day that the lie becomes the truth." Lady Gaga "I'm obsessively opposed to the typical." Lady Gaga "All that ever holds somebody back, I think, is fear. For a minute I had fear. [Then] I went into the [dressing] room and shot my fear in the face." Lady Gaga "Do you know the feeling, when your heart is so hurt, that you could feel the blood dripping?" Lady Gaga "I want women - and men - to feel empowered by a deeper and more psychotic part of themselves. The part they're always trying desperately to hide. I want that to become something that they cherish." Lady Gaga "Once you kill a cow, you gotta make a burger." Lady Gaga "As artists, we are eternally heartbroken." Lady Gaga "Well my music was different in high school; I was singing about love—you know, things I don't care about anymore." Lady Gaga "I'm telling you a lie in a vicious effort that you will repeat my lie over and over until it becomes true." Lady Gaga "I've always been famous, it's just no one knew it yet." Lady Gaga "A girl's got to use what she's given and I'm not going to make a guy drool the way a Britney video does. So I take it to extremes. I don't say I dress sexily on stage - what I do is so extreme. It's meant to make guys think: 'I don't know if this is sexy or just weird." Lady Gaga "My friends joke that I'm dead until I get onstage. I'm dead right now as you're speaking to me." Lady Gaga "So basically I did this whole show carrying 100lbs, looking out of one eye, dancing – and then my tits explode at the end. It's not as easy as it looks!" Lady Gaga
