Metro Still Has To Prove To The Feds It's Not Screwing Low-Income Riders
Photo by pfrench99 |
From the report:
METRO remains deficient in this area because it has planned or implemented substantial new services during 2008, including all of the Light Rail projects and the implementation of premium services, including Signature bus service and Airport Direct bus service. METRO has not documented that it conducted an Equity Evaluation of these service improvements to determine that the investments were made equitable in minority and non-minority communities.The report continues:
In fact, the data shows that minorities, low-income and LEP riders were more likely to pay with cash and the elimination of the free transfers for cash-paying passengers disproportionately impacted these protected groups.
Following the FTA's original investigation, which took place at the beginning of this year, Metro was deficient in eight out of the 12 categories, and to the agency's credit, all but the two were fixed. For instance, a couple weeks ago, we reported on the FTA's preliminary findings, including that "the general consensus among the [Metro] staff was that there was little to no awareness of Metro's Title VI Program."
From the final report:
METRO did not submit to FTA in either its 2008 Title VI Report to the FTA, or in the January 2009 Supplement, a listing of Title VI complaints recieved through its Public Comment System.It's a shame that during the time that Metro was trying to finalize $1.46 billion worth of plans for the light rail and no doubt praying for federal money, it wasn't sending the feds any complaints from the public. But, the good news is, the problems with getting a complaint to the right people have been fixed.
So have six other deficiencies, and you can read all about it in the final report. The other area that Metro is still deficient deals with providing better access to riders who speak limited English. According to the report, Metro has until September 30 to fix the remaining problems.
A spokeperson from Metro has not responded to our questions, which we sent via e-mail, but we will update as soon as possible.
Update: Metro spokeswoman Raequel Roberts tells us that Metro plans to comply by the September deadline, and she has been working today to find answers to additional questions.
Update 2: In an e-mail to Hair Balls, Roberts reminds us that the cover letter to the Title VI report said the FTA is "pleased with the progress Metro has made in implementing the requirements of Title VI."
She said the first deficiency remains because Metro didn't thoroughly explain to the FTA that the new fare structure no longer gives the biggest discounts to riders who pay the most money up front, making it more fair for low-income and minority riders. For example, she said, a rider gets a 10 percent discount whether he loads his card with $2 or $100.
In regards to the other deficiency, Roberts said "we are still working with the FTA to provide sufficient documentation to address thier requirements."

We have so much to be thankful for
We tend to not think of the little things
Be especially thankful for God and a bunch more
When we lose something we see how much joy it brings
God loves us so much and has lots in store
And made so many things wonderful in life
Think of all the times God has opened up a door
Like when God brought you your friends, husband or wife
Lots of us may not think of our food, clothes or our home
But think of all the people in world that are homeless and starving
Or don't even have something simply as a brush or comb!
And don't have water for cleaning, drinking or showering
Thank God for the life He has given you
Even though there has been ups and downs
Think of the times God has brought you through
God is the reigning King with many crowns!
Your job might be really tough
But be thankful for it and the money
And there are times where your co-workers are tough
When they are, you can always try and make it sunny! :)
Be thankful for all you talents
Even if they may not be obvious or are small
Who knows, someday it may turn into great events
Where you are so happy and jumping off the wall
Take a moment to reflect
And say a prayer to God
"You God, are so wonderful and perfect
I want to join in on Your squad!
Help me to love everyone no matter what
By helping the weary and the broken
And bring them to You in Your hut
So their life won't be all dreary
God, I thank You so much
What would I do without You
You support me like a crutch
So that I don't fall and make it through"

Shreveport and Bossier City residents who spent some time outside Thursday probably noticed the sharp decline in temperature as the day progressed.
The cold weather is coming, and freezing temperatures right along with it.
"It's a big arctic front, an extremely cold, shallow pool of air, and that's why we're going to get freezing rain," said Aaron Stevens, observing program leader with the National Weather Service in Shreveport. "The air is extremely cold near (the) surface but still warm enough aloft that when precipitation starts to fall, it is liquid, but the air is so cold and shallow ...

Skill | Class / Level | Description | Characters |
Galeforce | Dark Flier / 15 | If unit attacks and defeats an enemy, the unit can take a single additional move that turn. | See below. |
If you pair a character with Galeforce with another character, like a Pegasus Knight, you can move the paired character, switch and then attack, allowing the Galeforce character to strike again after traveling a great distance.
How to Get Galeforce
The Dark Flier class naturally learns Galeforce at level 15. Several characters including Pegasus Knights Cordelia, Cynthia, and Sumia can be promoted to Dark Flier, as well as the Dancer Olivia. Note that if you promote Olivia she will no longer be able to Dance (which allows another player to move twice) .
Galeforce can also be passed to children, as the last skill any mother learns is passed on to her daughter. For more on inherited skills, see Marriage and Children. Eligible mothers Cordelia and Sumia may pair up and pass on this trait to a number of children.
Galeforce can be acquired easily via Jaffar, a member of the Bonus Teams that became available for free download on February 7th, 2013 in the US.
Characters Who Can Get Galeforce
Characters Who Can Get on Her Own
- Sumia - A Pegasus Knight whom you can promote to Dark Flier
- Lissa - Can be promoted to Dark Flier
- Maribelle - Can be promoted to Dark Flier
- Cordelia - A Pegasus Knight whom you can promote to Dark Flier
- Olivia - Can be promoted to Dark Flier
- Say'ri - Can be promoted to Dark Flier
- Cynthia - The daughter of Sumia whom you can promote to Dark Flyer
- Severa - The daughter of Cordelia whom you can promote to Dark Flyer
- Lucina - Can become a Dark Flier if her mother is anyone but Sully.
- Emmeryn - Recruited in Paralogue 20. Can be promoted to Dark Flier
- Aversa - Recruited in Paralogue 22
- Daughters of Donnel, Gaius, male My Unit - special case: their Fighter class is converted to Pegasus Knight class.
- female My Unit
- female Morgan
Characters Who Can Get by Being Passed from Their Mother
If Galeforce is the most recent skill a mother learned (or if it is placed last on her skill list), she will pass it on to her offspring. That means if you have Sumia paired with a partner, you'll want to get her to be a level 15 Dark Flier before playing the Paralogue where you recruit Cynthia.
- Owain - The son of Lissa
- Brady - The son of Maribelle
- Inigo - The son of Olivia
- male Morgan - The son of female My Unit
See Marriage and Children page for details.
DLC Characters
- Jaffar - An Assassin you can recruit from a Bonus Team
- Catria - From future DLC
How to Move Four Times with Galeforce
You may take a total of four moves in one turn if you pair two characters with Galeforce. To do this, pair two characters with Galeforce. Move and attack with Character 1 killing a target. Galeforce will activate. Move again, then switch to Character 2. His or her attack (if it results in a kill) should allow you to then take Character 2's second move. Using Olivia to give this character another move on top of this gives you a total of four moves in a single turn.

It's a new kind of radio –
stations that play only music you like
Terry Reid
A teen prodigy of sorts, Reid had turned professional at the age of 15 to join Peter Jay & the Jaywalkers. His first couple of singles as a headliner found him singing in a sort of poppy blue-eyed soul vein. But by the time of his 1968 debut Bang, Bang You're Terry Reid, produced by Mickie Most, he'd switched to more of a hard rock approach. Most was also handling Donovan and the Jeff Beck Group at the time, and similarities to both of those acts can be heard in Terry Reid's first two albums -- proto-hard rock on the louder tunes, sweeter folk-rock on the mellow ones (Reid in fact covered a couple of Donovan compositions, although he wrote most of his own material). Reid's high voice was reminiscent of Robert Plant's, though not nearly as shrill, and his folky numbers especially are reminiscent of Led Zeppelin's most acoustic early cuts.
Reid, oddly, was considerably more well-known in the U.S. than the U.K. His first album, very oddly, was not even issued in Britain, although it made the American Top 200. It's been reported that he at least in part declined Jimmy Page's offer to join Led Zeppelin owing to his contractual commitments to record for Mickie Most as a solo artist, and to perform as an opening solo artist on the Rolling Stones' late-'60s U.S. tour. He did influence Led Zeppelin's history in a big way by recommending Plant and drummer John Bonham as suitable candidates for the group's lineup, after Plant and Bonham's pre-Led Zep outfit (the Band of Joy) played support at one of Reid's early gigs. Reid felt confident enough in his solo prospects to also turn down an offer to join Deep Purple (Ian Gillan was recruited instead).
An opening spot on the Rolling Stones' famous 1969 tour of America seemed to augur even brighter prospects for the future, but this is precisely where Reid's career stalled, at the age of 20. First he became embroiled in litigation with Mickey Most, which curtailed his studio activities in the early '70s. After a couple of personnel changes, he disbanded his original trio, leading a group for a while that included David Lindley and ex-King Crimson drummer Michael Giles (this quartet, however, didn't release any records). He moved to California in 1971 and signed to Atlantic, but his long-delayed third album didn't appear until 1973. Reid would release albums for other labels in 1976 and 1979, but none of his '70s recordings were well-received, critically or commercially (though 1976's Seed of Memory did briefly chart). He's barely recorded since, though he did play some sessions, and The Driver appeared in 1991. ~ Richie Unterberger, Rovi

Happy Friday MTG peeps,
If you are unable to get out to a Friday Night Magic this evening and get your Magic the Gathering fix, you will be pleased to know that you can still jump onto the interwebs and follow the SatrCity Games Open Series tournament in Cincinnati, Ohio or the Pro Tour Dark Ascension in Honolulu this weekend. From these two tournaments, we should expect to see what direction standard constructed will develop over the next few weeks and months.
As for us, we posted a B/W Token build yesterday and received from great comments already via eMail and post comment. We hope to refine and tweak this several times over the next while. You can keep up with the updates to this black white token build posted under 'Haunting Souls' at TappedOut.net.
For today, we wanted to take a crack at a post-Dark Ascension Delver build featuring spirits. The 'in work' decklist is posted here and is a bit more unrefined than the previous build. Again, we invite you to provide input and guidance on this. Let's have a look -
Geist-Delver Spirits
37 Spells
4 x Delver of Secrets
4 x Ponder
4 x Artful Dodge
4 x Vapor Snag
4 x Mindshrieker
3 x Runechanter's Pike
4 x Drogskol Captain
3 x Phantasmal Image
3 x Geist of Saint Traft
2 x Dungeon Geists
2 x Drogskol Reaver
23 Lands
3 x Moorland Haunt
4 x Glacial Fortress
5 x Plains
11 x Island
3 x Mana Leak
3 x Disperse
3 x Saving Grasp
3 x Feeling of Dread
3 x Oblivion Ring
The next day after we had compiled a rough list, we realised that we just wanted to build something with Geist of Saint Traft and Drogskol Captain and nothing too competitive. To this end, we think this will be kept at the kitchen table for fun and not taken to FNM. Having said that, should you have some great suggestions, we might must change our mind.
Anywhoos, we've yet to get any real games in with this yet but will keep you up to date on where this goes.
Geist-Delver Spirits

I guess now i gotta look at Spirits, great, since we got so much here from Dark Ascension, well i can see this being useful but as of this post PT: Dark Ascension is happening so i'll reserve judgment for the deck when the PT is over, best off doing it this way.
Decent deck so far. - 2/10/2012 8:52 PM

This recipe is lovely and very easy. I made it last night and it was the very first time I had used my hand me down bread maker. The loaf was a little short but I had accidentally had my maker knead the dough twice so I'm not sure if that was a factor. I will be trying this one again :)
this is a good bread nice soft and fluffy texture. my loaf also came out short but very good.
Seriously Easy and I loved the way it turned out!!!

KINGSTON, Ont.–Former NHL player Mike Danton was granted full parole today after telling the National Parole Board the target of his murder-for-hire plot was his father, and not his controversial and oft-scrutinized former agent, David Frost.
As conditions of his release, Danton is to have no direct or indirect contact with his father, Steve Jefferson, and no face-to-face contact with Frost, unless pre-approved by his parole officer.
Danton said he hopes to return to playing hockey.
"Given the opportunity I know I'll be able to play somewhere, at some level," he said. Yet Danton admitted the parole board was correct in that it would be impossible to play in the NHL if he can't leave the country while on parole.
Danton, sporting a shaved head and crisp collared shirt, said he wants to get a post-secondary degree, noting he's interested in psychology, and that he loves teaching kids.
A native of Brampton, Ont., Danton pleaded guilty in 2004 in the United States in the failed plot that prosecutors alleged targeted Frost, his former junior coach and NHL agent.
But at Friday's hearing, Danton said the intended target was his father, not Frost.
While American authorities had alleged Frost was the target, Danton said Frost "turned out to be" the victim, but he was not the "intended victim."
The confusing distinction was clarified after a somewhat combative discussion with board member Michael Crowley at the hearing, which was otherwise largely congenial.
Danton, who spent parts of three seasons playing for the St. Louis Blues and New Jersey Devils, explained that after canvassing a St. Louis club he frequented, trying to recruit a hit man, he called a girl he had been dating and she put him in touch with someone.
"The agreement was there would be $10,000 paid out to have the person I believed was coming to kill me taken care of," Danton said.
He said paranoia had gripped him, which he blamed partly on the use of stimulants and sleeping pills, and he believed someone was going to his apartment to murder him.
"Why on Earth would you believe that?" Crowley asked. "That's like talking about the bogeyman."
"Over the years there were conversations that pointed to someone who would have interest in ending my life and ending (Frost's) life," Danton said, adding he received "verbal confirmation" from a family member.
He told the hit man to kill someone who would be in his apartment over two days, and Crowley noted Frost was there at the time. But Danton said Frost wasn't the person he believed was coming to kill him.
"It's clear that you thought it was your father who would do you harm," Crowley said.
"Right," Danton replied.
The target of his plot was not contained in the agreed facts when he pleaded guilty to conspiracy to murder and Friday was the first time Danton has publicly said it was his dad.
The revelation illustrates the bizarre saga of Mike Danton, his father and Frost.
Danton said his childhood was dysfunctional and the relationship between him and his parents, Steve and Sue Jefferson, became so strained that he changed his last name from Jefferson, hasn't talked to his father since he was about 15 and admitted to tearing up and sending back the letters they wrote to him in prison.
"I refer to biological family as Steve and Sue," Danton said. ``I don't think of them as family."
He alleged Steve Jefferson was physically abusive and that Sue Jefferson did drugs. None of the allegations has been proven in court. The Jeffersons could not be reached for comment.
Danton alleged his father subjected him to repeated beatings and would force him to stay home from school if marks or bruises were too apparent, or was told to blame them on hockey injuries. He claimed his father beat up his mother too, but that she had problems of her own.
Speaking about his mother, Danton said he would come home from school in the afternoons and the house would reek of marijuana, then his mom would stay up at night, vacuuming the whole house. But he also alleged a lack of hygiene in the house, saying he didn't even know how to brush his teeth until Frost and his wife took him in.
There was no affection, no bedtime stories or kisses goodnight in his house, Danton said. But he said he didn't know his family's alleged behaviour wasn't normal until he had sleepovers at friends' houses and didn't see drug paraphernalia lying around or kitchen plates thrown across the room.
Turning to Frost as a father was a "no-brainer," Danton said.
"Do you stick with someone who abuses you every chance (they) get?"
When Frost became his coach at age 11, Danton clung to him as a role model, someone to trust. He said the way Frost has been portrayed in court testimony and in the media – as a violent and controlling, all-encompassing presence in his players' lives – is a big misconception.
Frost was acquitted last year of four counts of sexual exploitation relating to his tenure as coach of the Junior A Quinte Hawks team in eastern Ontario in 1996 and 1997, a team of which Danton was a member.
In oral reasons for the decision Friday, the board said while it was a very serious offence, Danton has clearly benefited from therapy and would be a low risk.
He won't be physically released for another few days and will be under parole supervision until Jan. 21, 2011.
Danton was sentenced to 7 1/2 years in prison in the United States and was transferred to a Kingston, Ont.-area facility in March, when he reached full parole eligibility.

Released: Apr 01st, 1993
Running Time: 81
Director: Scotty Fox
Company: Pinnacle (Odyssey Group Video)
Steve Drake, T.T. Boy, Rebecca Wild, Mike Horner, Alex Jordan, Brazil Mercedes, Mona Lisa (III)
Critical Rating: AAA 1/2
Genre: Feature
Frustrated daydreams throw Mike Horner back to the days of roamin' Roman fingers as the slave Spermacus, in this somewhat sexy and good-looking high-budget sex video. This glorified toga-party-goes-orgy includes Rebecca Wild (in her pro video debut), Mona Lisa, Horner and Steve Drake all having fun as their costumed carnal cavorting captures stuff Caligula would love. Nice oral, Mona. They even make a backdoor detour up Rebecca's tight little Appian Way.
Orgy completed, Horner wakes up and returns to the present just in time for T.T. to chase him out of his apartment for a quickie with Rebecca's modern-day incarnation. It continues with more sex, some girl/girl, and finally Mike and Alex join forces in a tantalizing finish. Overall, a nice blend of script, scenery, and sex, definitely worth carrying in your store.

Erin Cummings (above) directed a pass from Tiffany Kreider past a drawn out goalkeeper to put the Mules (1-11, 1-5) on the board 10 minutes into the second half. It was the first goal of the freshman's career and Kreider's first assist of the season.
Cronin's time of 22:22.90 was her fastest mark this season, and was good for tops among all Division III women
She was one of seven Mule women to post their best time of the season at the event, as Muhlenberg was the top Division III team, finishing in sixth place. Sophomore Samantha Mayden finished 17th overall, and was the third Division III female to cross the line, with her time of 23:06.50.
After back-to-back weekends of hard racing, the Mule men were instructed to use the race as a tempo run to prepare for the Centennial Conference Championships later this month.
With its top runner taking the weekend off, Muhlenberg finished ninth in the field comprised mainly of Division I schools.
Sophomore Brendan Smith led the Mules with his 40th-place finish.

The Skywhale's first flight
In May this year, sculptor Patricia Piccinini took her art to the skies, constructing a hot air balloon in the shape of a whale to honour Canberra's centenary. Vision supplied by Blueboat.

ACT taxpayers are paying at least $100,000 more than the territory government had indicated for the Skywhale hot-air balloon.
Official documents reveal the balloon is costing at least $334,000, not the $170,000 figure quoted by ACT government officials.
The official line on the cost to taxpayers of the balloon had been $170,000, with some extra costs for piloting and educational materials.
Internationally renowned artist and former Canberran Patricia Piccinini in front of the Skywhale.
Jeremy Lasek, executive director of culture for the ACT Chief Minister's directorate, gave Fairfax Media the figure on Thursday morning.
''The balloon itself was in the vicinity of $170,000. We've also created a website, educational kits, piloting, a bunch of other things that were on top of it. So, I don't have the total number, but the balloon design and construction and the testing was around $170,000,'' he said.
But Chief Minister Katy Gallagher told an Assembly committee on Friday afternoon the cost to ACT taxpayers was $300,000, with one of her top officials saying the price would be capped at that level.
The Canberra Centenary balloon ... our Skywhale.
Philanthropic funding of $50,000, provided by the Aranday Foundation, would make up the rest of the cost.
On Friday afternoon, Mr Lasek confirmed the Skywhale, although paid for with ACT taxpayer funds, belonged to Melbourne company Global Ballooning.
The Skywhale would be good for about 100 flights, although there was no guaranteed minimum number of flights in the capital.

The giant artwork, which was revealed on Thursday morning, has divided opinion on its aesthetic qualities and reignited the sometimes acrimonious debate on taxpayer-funded government art.
Ms Gallagher said when she first saw diagrams of the balloon her eyes ''nearly fell out of her head'', but she had since become quite fond of it.
''It shows us as a cosmopolitan city. Too often we are talked about as a boring place where nothinghappens ... it challenges those beliefs about Canberra,'' she said.
Speaking on 2CC Friday morning, Centenary of Canberra creative director Robyn Archer also defended the cost of the hot-air balloon.
''This is the cheapest piece of public art. Almost every piece of public art in Canberra cost more,'' she said.''
Aranday Foundation chairman Rupert Myer AM said he was excited by the work of Canberra-raised artist Patricia Piccinini.
''In a glance, her works spirit us away to another type of universe where life exists differently. Without judgment,'' Mr Myer said.
''She makes us think deeply about how we respond to the unfamiliar and unknowable. And she does it with wit and candour.
''It is a privilege to have supported the commission.''
Piccinini's Skywhale is nearly 23 metres high and took 1880 hours of work to make.
It used more than 3500 metres of fabric and weighs 500 kilograms with fuel, a pilot and two passengers on board.
The Skywhale will be revealed to the Canberra public on Saturday morning at 8.20am outside the National Gallery of Australia and will shortly thereafter make its first flight, weather permitting, at 9.20am. The first official flight was originally scheduled for Monday morning, and a flight then will still go ahead if the weather remains favourable.

Don't Let Mosquitoes Keep You Indoors This Summer!
Spring has arrived, and Summer will be here before we know it. And, like most Arkansans, you understand the importance of getting outside. Whether it's camping, having a picnic, or just watching your children play in the yard, you shouldn't let mosquitoes and other flying insects force you to stay inside.
Squirrels Can Really Damage Your Attic
Some people think of squirrels as adorable nut-hoarding rodents with bushy, expressive tails. Others see them as cuddly creatures that they want as a pet. However, experts often categorize them as problem animals that overrun suburban neighborhoods. These general perceptions are augmented considerably when you have a squirrel wreaking havoc in your attic.
Usually, the problem starts with suspicious pounding or rustling noises that come from overhead. In an attic or confined space, squirrels can make a surprising amount of noise. It might even sound like someone is stomping on your roof. The noise level is one indicator of how destructive these critters are. Initially, squirrels will cause damage as they enter the attic through a soffit, vent or small opening. Then, they'll go to work mutilating wood, insulation and electrical wires. They may even chew their way through the ceiling and into your family's living spaces. This type of damage can happen unexpectedly because many homeowners have difficultly pin-pointing the source of the noise, since squirrels can be active in several parts of a home.

Best Sean Cannon Poems
We've hit a bump; the melodies and notes that resemble the feelings of our love hang in the air broken, and the silence looms over us like fog in a cemetery. It's easier to remember the difference in all equations than what reoccurs; and so our hound dogs, like our past fights keep us up at night with eh passing thoughts of "should I be here?" and "Is it worth it?" And so we explain our case; the lawyers inside us that never wish to lose a fight, all lawyers are guilty. There never will be a time, when two songs of different tempos will make a melody. Let's start humming the same tune, and break the broken desires.

Bonnie Kathleen Wright (born February 17, 1991 in London, England) is a British film actress, known for her role as Ginny Weasley in the Harry Potter films.
Her parents are Sheila Teague and Gary Wright. She has an older brother named Lewis.
After the filming of the first Harry Potter book was not much more than an extras role, her character in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets has been greatly expanded in the next film but again reduced to an extras role. In Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, she was again a strong presence.
She continued her role in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. In preparation for the fight scenes in this film, Wright has completed a stunt training. In the 6th Book Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Harry Potter and Ginny became a couple, which was implemented in the same film. This means that their role was again one of the most important.
In the German Harry Potter films, she is dubbed by Marcia Rebay.
Since 2010 she is dating actor Jamie Campbell Bower.

Advice & Support
For most people with arrhythmias, sexual activity does not necessarily need to be limited because of the arrhythmia alone. If the arrhythmia is due to other heart disease (for example, heart failure, angina, or a diseased heart valve), symptoms of the other heart disease may get worse during any activity, including sex, and arrhythmias may be more likely to occur.
However, providing the other underlying heart disease is controlled, sexual activity should not be a problem.
People who notice symptoms of their arrhythmias during sexual activity should discuss this with their doctors. Some medicines can decrease sexual drive and produce impotence. You should not stop taking these medicines because of this; doing so would only lead to more frequent arrhythmias. People who develop impotence as a side effect of their medicine should discuss options with their doctors.

Dr. Mop's Mopping Mixes and Wayzata's Broadway Market
Tim Moodie is not a doctor, he just plays one at farmers markets. His alter ego, Dr. Mop, prescribes a collection of spice blends as a perfect stocking stuffer for your favorite grilling fanatic.
When we've written about local spice blends in the past, we've mostly highlighted professionals at the top of their game — ones whose years of experience have culminated in blends that reflect a mastery of their cuisine (see: Raghavan Iyer or Sameh Wadi). So here's some love for the opposite end of the spectrum: an ordinary guy developing the right mix for his favorite style of grilling.
"Mopping is like brining while you're grilling," says Moodie (above). "It keeps meat super moist and infuses it with flavor." His four blends — Caribbean, Greek, Italian, and Tex-Mex — are designed to be mixed with your liquid of choice (beer, wine, stock, even water). He suggests applying the brine with a small cotton mop, which he also sells, every 20 to 30 minutes over multiple hours of grilling with indirect heat.
After formulating the original recipes, he contracted the Wayzata Bay Spice Company to handle blending and packaging. He's been selling his blends at farmers markets for the past few years and, more recently, at Settergren Ace Hardware in Linden Hills. There, you'll find them specially packaged and named for members of the Settergren family (below).
His mixes are versatile enough for cooking techniques other than grilling. At Moodie's suggestion, we marinated a pork tenderloin in chicken stock and a scoop of the Greek blend. After a quick sear and a few minutes in the oven, it came off spectacularly. He also suggests working the Tex-Mex blend into your burger patties.
But this raises a question: If his mixes can be used for dry rubbing and marinating as well, what makes a spice mix good for mopping? Couldn't you just throw any spice blend in some stock and mop it on your ribs? What's so special about his blends? "You need a blend that will hold up in the liquid, spices that won't get broken down," he says. "And you need to use a cotton mop, because a silicone brush won't pick up the bits of spices in the liquid."
We'd suggest finding Dr. Mop at the Broadway Market, a seasonal pop-up shop located up the hill from Sunsets in downtown Wayzata. Open Thursday through Saturday from 10am to 6pm, it's filled with a group of West Metro purveyors who have taken their farmers market wares indoors for the holiday season.
If you go, we'd suggest getting a loaf of Banana Bob's cranberry-banana bread (the tartness of the cranberry makes the banana flavor sing). And if you hate those overtly sugary commercial barbecue sauces, Papa D's has the remedy (and a real nice teriyaki sauce to boot).
Your favorite imbiber will enjoy a local Bloody Mary kit from Gracie's Pantry of Deephaven. Their mix is perfectly tempered — no extra doctoring necessary — with the perfect thickness and a pleasant horseradish bite. Aside from dill pickles Gracie also cans some vanilla bean-infused peaches that seem destined for a showstopping cobbler.
Finally, pick up a few packages of Sweet Heart Macarons. We tried the coconut and will be rushing back for the lemon curd. But since those will probably get crushed in someone's stocking, you'd better just eat those yourself as a reward for finding a great local market this late in the season.
One other quick note: If you're looking for a great lunch in Wayzata, Gianni's Steakhouse has just about the best tomato-basil soup you could ever hope to order. It's certainly rare that any tomato soup could be not only noteworthy, but so expressive and flavorful that we beg the chef for the recipe. Apparently, the secret is starting with 74-40 Tomato Filets and small additions of Port and honey. When we zero in on an exact recipe, we'll be sure to let you know.

Component/s: Parser

Hi there,
I've been trying out the great new coverage changes made in JRUBY-6106. I have a Sinatra app for which simplecov is now working perfectly, but I've hit an interesting problem when trying the same thing on a Rails app.
I'm building against the current git master
(4e471f489ee6e6aa5d74d64893d709c85a312ee1) with:
ant clean && ant jar-jruby-complete
When I use the resulting jar to run my Rails app with simplecov enabled, I get exceptions like this:
CoverageModule.java:40:in `result': java.lang.NullPointerException from CoverageModule$INVOKER$s$0$0$result.gen:-1:in `call' from CachingCallSite.java:292:in `cacheAndCall' from CachingCallSite.java:135:in `call' from CallNoArgNode.java:63:in `interpret' from CallOneArgNode.java:57:in `interpret'
After a bit of debugging I think I've tracked the problem down to what might be two different issues.
The first issue comes about when calling require on an empty file (or a file consisting of nothing but comments). This seems to cause a null to be added to the coverage data, which blows up when generating results. I can reproduce that with:
$ GEM_HOME=$PWD/test_gems java -jar lib/jruby-complete.jar -S gem install simplecov $ echo > empty.rb $ cat | GEM_HOME=$PWD/test_gems java -jar lib/jruby-complete.jar -I. --debug --1.9 - require "rubygems" require 'simplecov' SimpleCov.start require "empty.rb" ^D
For me, that blows up with an exception like the one shown above.
I'm finding the other issue a bit harder to nail down. The ParserConfiguration.coverLine(int i) method takes a line number and marks it off as being covered. But when running my Rails app under simplecov, I see that 'i' isn't always positive--I see numbers ranging from -9 and up, and the negative number causes a RuntimeException when it tries to access an invalid array offset.
I haven't made much headway in figuring out why the parser would report a negative line number--it only seems to happen in my app when parsing .erb files, but I can't reproduce the problem when loading the same .erb templates from the command line. I thought I'd just check if line numbers sometimes being negative was expected before diving in further.
I've attached a patch that sorts things out for my local instance, but realise I'm probably just masking the symptoms. I thought it might help to show the spots I'm talking about, though.
Thanks for all your great work, and please let me know if I can do any debugging from this end.

Outdoor speakers buying guide
Bring your music outside with the right speakers
The Crutchfield writing team is a group of full-time, in-house copywriters who share a passion for consumer electronics. In addition to creating the articles and videos you find in the Research area of the Crutchfield website, these hard-working and talented people write the informational copy for the products on our website and in the Crutchfield catalog. Our writers constantly research the latest products, technologies, and industry trends, so that we can bring you the most helpful information possible.
More from Crutchfield Writing Team
Want to add music to your back yard, porch, patio, or pool? There are lots of outdoor speakers that can help you take your tunes outside. This guide will show you the different options, from portable wireless speakers to larger models that can be permanently installed outdoors.
Types of outdoor speakers
Permanently installed stereo speakers
If you want to enjoy detailed, immersive sound on a deck or porch, or in a small backyard, a pair of stereo speakers is the best option. Outdoor stereo speakers are similar to indoor speakers, with two big differences:
- Resistance to the elements. Many outdoor speakers are weatherproof, meaning they can withstand direct assaults of rain, sun, and cold. Other speakers are weather-resistant, so they require some protection from rain and ice. With either type of speaker, we recommend mounting them under eaves.
- Mounting brackets. These speakers include brackets for easy mounting onto the side of your house. Brackets also allow you to angle the speakers toward your listening area.
Many outdoor speakers also have paintable grilles and enclosures, so you can match them to your color scheme.
Speakers that mount to the side of your house offer robust stereo sound for your outdoor space.
Patio and garden speakers
If you want to listen in an area that's farther from your house, look for speakers designed to sit on the ground or be mounted on poles or stakes. These speakers are ideal for gardens, patios, and pools. They're weatherproof for permanent outdoor installation without any cover or protection. And they're a better option than simply blasting music from your house out into the yard — your neighbors probably wouldn't appreciate that.
The Polk Atrium Sat 30 speakers can be placed in the ground with the included stakes.
Some of these speakers are even designed to blend into their outdoor surroundings (like these "rock" speakers). Others are compact and rounded, so they don't take visitors' eyes away from your beautiful landscaping.
Environmental speakers, like the Niles PBS6SI Pro planter speaker, blend into their surroundings. You can even plant flowers in this one.
Stereo sound from a single speaker
If you need to add sound to a large outdoor space, stereo speakers might not make sense. After all, if you're in one end of the pool or yard and closer to the left speaker, you're only going to hear half of your music. That's when you need to get stereo-input speakers.
These speakers have inputs for both left and right channels. Often, they can be switched between stereo or traditional left or right playback.
Note: Use four-conductor cable for stereo-input speakers. These cables contain wires for both left- and right-channel inputs in a single casing.
This stereo-input speaker has inputs for both left and right channels, for stereo playback from a single speaker.
Outdoor subwoofers
If you choose compact outdoor speakers, you may need to augment their bass response with a subwoofer. Yep, there are subwoofers designed for outdoor use. These are a great option for more low-frequency punch when used with smaller satellite speakers in a yard or garden.
It may look like a planter, but it's actually the Polk Atrium Sub10 subwoofer, which offers powerful bass response in an attractive design.
Get the right speaker wire
Remember: when installing outdoor speakers, be sure to wire them with cable that is UL approved for in-wall use or direct burial.
70-volt systems for larger installations
If you want music to play in several discrete outdoor zones, a 70-volt system is a smart choice. Designed primarily for commercial use, 70-volt systems make sense if you need lots of speakers. A large system comprised of conventional speakers and stereo receivers or amps can be pricey and complicated to set up. A 70-volt system can run many speakers off of a single amplified mixer.
70-volt systems are ideal if you need multiple speakers on a porch, in your patio, out by the pool, and in the garden. Need help designing and choosing a 70-volt system? Call our design team at 800-315-2758.
70-volt outdoor speakers are great for larger installations and commercial use.
Portable wireless speakers
A permanently installed outdoor system is going to offer the best sound quality. But if you're more interested in convenience, you can always go with a portable wireless speaker.
Portable wireless speakers have rechargeable batteries and are compact enough to move anywhere. They range from very small models that you can easily grab with one hand, to larger ones that can put out a lot of sound.
Many wireless speakers are rugged and even water-resistant, for outdoor use.
These speakers usually operate via Bluetooth®, so you can stream music wirelessly from your smartphone or tablet. Some have built-in Wi-Fi®, so you can stream music from networked computers. If you select a speaker with Wi-Fi, be sure your home network reaches outdoors to where you'll be using the speaker.
Important note: Not all portable speakers are weather-resistant, and none are designed to be left outdoors permanently. Be sure to read the specification on our website to determine if the speaker is water- or weather-resistant, and always bring them inside when not in use.

"We need new ways of thinking. It's not the traditional employment which will solve the issue," he said. "I think we have too many sociologists, psychiatrists around, and not enough engineers and scientific people." Speaking on the same day as President Barack Obama's second-term public inauguration, Schwab said he hopes the world's biggest economic and military power will become more assertive on the world stage. "What the world expects is that someone, if there's a major crisis, takes the lead, and I'm really hopeful that the United States, with the second mandate, will assume its responsibility as the strongest power," he said. Asked about Google's cancellation of its annual invitation-only Friday night party, which has been the hottest ticket among celebrities and elites at Davos in recent years, Schwab described it as a sign of the times. "I think the world is in a very serious situation and the annual meeting is a very serious event. We are not a fun event. We want to improve the state of the world
-- the world is not in a good shape at the moment," he said. "So I think it's really logical that we concentrate much more on substance."

Boy George (George O'Dowd) (b. 1961)
Boy George is, like many middle-aged , a survivor. And, like many pop icons, one of the main trials he has had to survive is his own fame. The Boy George persona, which came to international attention with the success of the band Culture Club in the early 1980s, threatened to overshadow completely Boy George the performer. However, George's talent, resilience, and genuine affability have seen him through his band's breakup, his own drug addiction, an unexpected solo comeback, and a 1998 reunion with Culture Club. Retaining his sense of style and eclecticism throughout, George has proved he is not merely a stage persona, but also a real original and a gay pioneer. Born in Bexleyheath, a cheerless section of South London, on June 14, 1961, George Alan O'Dowd was the third of six children born to working class Irish parents. His father, a builder and boxing coach, and his mother, who worked in a nursing home, had little attention to spare to give emotional support to their children, especially little George, who showed signs of being "different" from a very early age. He often showed up at church in outlandish hats and platform shoes. Indeed, the eccentric clothes he wore to school got him assigned to a class for incorrigibles. He soon dropped out and began to seek kindred spirits. Perhaps tellingly, the first live concert Boy George attended featured gender-bender David Bowie. Flamboyantly dressed and wildly made up, George and his friends were regulars at hip London clubs, where George frequently attracted the attention of photographers. The photos in turn attracted the attention of band manager Malcolm McLaren (Sex Pistols) and bassist Mikey Craig, who approached George about forming a band. Soon, George was fronting Culture Club (named for the cultural mix of its members, Jamaican Craig on bass, the Irish George on vocals, the Jewish Jon Moss on drums, and the English Roy Hay on keyboards). Culture Club's pop-reggae-soul fusion made its first two albums Kissing to be Clever (1982) and Colour by Numbers (1983) into major hits. George's rich, soulful voice anchored the band, but it was his appearance, in braids and dresses or ornate geisha drag, with elaborate makeup that often took hours to apply, that made Culture Club notorious. While fans loved the rebellious kitsch of George's effeminate look, led to such reactions as that of a Detroit radio station that distributed blindfolds at a concert so that listeners would not have to look at the offending "she-male." George took the criticism in stride, although he downplayed his gayness in the early years, saying he had experimented with all kinds of sex. In fact, the early years of Culture Club were intensified by a relationship between George and bisexual drummer Jon Moss. Success, however, took its toll, and soon George was using a variety of drugs and, finally, became addicted to heroin. After a string of hits, including the singles "Do You Really Want to Hurt Me" (1982) and "Karma Chameleon" (1983), Culture Club broke up in 1986. George managed to quit heroin, and in 1987 he made his solo debut with the album Sold. Since then, Boy George has remained in the peripheral vision of the public eye. A true music lover, he no longer seeks the kind of publicity that overwhelmed him in the 1980s, but neither does he accept the has-been status of "former icon." After another popularity surge in the mid-1990s, when he sang the title song from the 1995 film The Crying Game, he reunited with Culture Club for the 1998 "Big Rewind Tour." His most recent passion is DJ-ing, for which he has become newly famous in England, specializing in unlikely mixes of genres and artists with hip and campy results. Spinning discs gives George a chance to step back from the spotlight while keeping both hands on the music he loves. He also scored a success in a musical centered on the 1980s performance artist and fashion designer Leigh Bowery, Taboo, for which he both wrote the score and also appeared as himself. The show's 2003 transition from London, where it was received warmly, to New York, where it was produced by Rosie O'Donnell, was not easy, bedeviled as it was by rumors of artistic disagreements between management and cast members. Despite mostly negative
reviews, Taboo ran 100 performances before closing on February 8, 2004.
