We may link the information we collect using web beacons and other web technologies to PII.
More Information On "First Party" Advertising
First-party advertising works this way: When you visit our Website, we may deliver a cookie to your browser. When you leave our Website and travel elsewhere on the Internet, we may use the cookie to recognize you as someone who has visited our Website, to assume that you are interested in our products, and to deliver an advertisement to you that promotes our products. Although we may work with a vendor to deliver and read our first-party cookies and to serve advertisements on our behalf, our vendors may not use these first-party cookies to recognize you as someone who may be interested in the goods/services of the vendors' other clients.
You can opt out of first-party advertising by clicking here . When you do, we will deliver an "opt-out" cookie to your browser. When you visit our Website in the future, the opt-out cookie will tell us that you have opted out of Crocs' cookies for first-party targeted advertisements.
Please note that the opt-out cookie will only prevent delivery of first-party advertising cookies. First-party cookies are different than third-party cookies. Third-party cookies track your online behaviors across nonaffiliated websites for the purpose of delivering targeted advertisements not only for Crocs but for a variety of other companies. To learn more about online behavioral advertising and the choices you have about the delivery of third-party cookies, read the next section.
Cookies Delivered by Third Parties
In addition to the cookies we deliver to your computer through our Website, certain third parties may deliver cookies to you for a variety of reasons. For example, we use Google Analytics, a web analytics tool that helps us understand how visitors engage with our Website. To learn more about Google Analytics, click here. Other third parties may deliver cookies to your computer for the purpose of tracking your online behaviors across nonaffiliated websites and delivering targeted advertisements either on our Website or on other websites.
You have choices about the collection of information by third parties on our Website. For example, if you don't want information about your visit to our Website sent to Google Analytics, you may download an Opt-out Browser Add-on by clicking here. Please note that the Add-on does not prevent information from being sent to Crocs.
In addition, if you would like to opt-out of having interest-based information collected by certain entities during your visits to our Website or other websites, please click here. You will be directed to an industry-developed website that contains mechanisms for choosing whether each listed entity may collect and use data for online behavioral advertising purposes. It may be that some of the third parties that collect interest-based information on our Website do not participate in the industry-developed opt-out website, in which case the best way to avoid third-party tracking of your online behaviors may be through your browser settings and deletion of cookies.

More information on how we use PII collected as part of a contest or promotion. When you enter a contest or other promotion, we may ask you for certain PII to administer the contest, send you promotional emails, notify winners and make the winners' list publicly available (pursuant to applicable law). Your consent to such promotional use and disclosure of this information generally is a condition of your participation. In cases where the contest or promotional offer is co-branded with or sponsored by another party, we may share your information with that party. Entering such contests and providing the required PII is solely your choice; you do not need to provide such information or enter such contests to browse this Website.
Your Choices
You have choices about what information we collect and how we use and share it. We try to make these choices available in a meaningful way and many of them are described elsewhere in this Policy. Here are some of your choices:
- At the time you provide your contact information, we typically offer you a choice as to whether you receive promotional communications from us. You can also remove your email address from our marketing list at any time either by sending an email to email@example.com with "Opt-out" in the subject line or by clicking on the "unsubscribe" link in any promotional email we send you.
- As discussed above, you can choose whether you receive cookies delivered through this Site.
- Please Note: In cases where a contest or promotional offer is co-branded with or sponsored by another party, your participation may be conditioned on our ability to share your information with that party.

Steps We Take to Safeguard your Information
We maintain reasonable administrative, physical and technological measures to protect the confidentiality and security of information you submit on or through our Website in accordance with applicable legislation and regulations. For example, when collecting credit card information for online purchases, we offer secured-service transactions that encrypt your information in transit to thwart others from intercepting or misusing it.
Unfortunately, no website, server, or database is completely secure or "hacker proof." We therefore cannot guarantee that your PII will not be disclosed, misused or lost by accident or by the unauthorized acts of others. Further, we cannot control dissemination of PII contained in User-Generated Content you post on or through our Website, and you should have no expectation of privacy in such information.
How Does Crocs Share the Information it Receives?
Crocs may share the AAI and/or PII submitted on or through this Website in the following ways:
Third–Party Service Providers. Crocs shares information collected through this Website with third-party service providers who act for or on its behalf. For example, we may use third-party vendors to design, operate, and/or host our Website; to conduct surveys; and to help us with our promotional efforts. These third parties may need information about you to perform their functions. Typically, third-party service providers who receive PII are bound by contract to use it only on our behalf. However, some of our service providers, such as our advertising partners, are permitted to collect AAI through our Website and use that AAI in connection with providing services to nonaffiliated third parties. For more information about behavioral advertising, see the "Cookies Delivered by Third Parties" section above.
Other Users of This Website. The User-Generated Content you submit on or through our Website is available to others who visit our Website. Any PII contained in User-Generated Content you submit can be read, collected, or used by others, and could be used to send you unsolicited messages. In addition, we may use User-Generated Content you submit on or through our Website for advertising campaigns and other promotions. We may or may not use your name in connection with such use, and we may or may not seek your consent before using the User-Generated Content for such purposes. Therefore, you should have no expectation of privacy with respect to User-Generated Content you submit on or through our Website. You should not submit any User-Generated Content you do not wish to make available to the general public, and you must take special care to make sure your submissions comply with our Terms of Use. In particular, your submissions must not violate the privacy or other rights of others.
Third-Party Social Media Platforms. We may provide functionality on our Website that allows you to automatically post information about the actions you take on our Website to a third-party social media platform. If you choose to take advantage of this functionality, people with access to your profile on the third-party platform may be able to see the actions you have taken—for example, the items you have purchased. Thus, you should have no expectation of privacy in those actions. Further, if you choose to link your profile on our Website with an account on a third-party social media platform, we may share the information in your profile with that third-party platform.
Affiliates and Subsidiaries. We may share your information with our affiliates and subsidiaries for their own marketing purposes. Before doing so, however, we may offer you the opportunity to "opt out" or "opt in" as required by applicable law.
Business Partners. From time to time, we may share your information with selected third parties (other than our service providers, affiliates, or subsidiaries) for their own marketing purposes. For example, in cases where a contest or promotional offer is co-branded with or sponsored by another party, your participation may be conditioned on our ability to share your information with that party. In such circumstances, if you do not want us to share your information with our co-sponsor, you should not participate in the contest or promotion.
Business Negotiations. We may contemplate, for strategic or other reasons, selling, buying, merging, or otherwise reorganizing one or more of our businesses. In negotiating with a third party about entering into such an arrangement, we may need to disclose your information. In such cases, we will take reasonable measures to protect the information we disclose, for example, by requiring a prospective purchaser to sign a non-disclosure agreement limiting the use and protecting the confidentiality of the information.
Business Transfers. We may transfer the information you submit on or through our Website to any organization that acquires or merges with us.
Compliance With Laws and Protection of Our Rights and the Rights of Others. Crocs may be obligated to cooperate with various law enforcement inquiries. Crocs reserves the right to share or transfer your information to comply with a legal requirement and to disclose any activities or information about you to law enforcement or other government officials as we, in our sole discretion, determine necessary or appropriate, in connection with an investigation of fraud, for the administration of justice, intellectual property infringements, or other activity that is illegal or may expose us or you to legal liability.
As Described in a Privacy Notice. We reserve the right to disclose your information as described in any privacy notice posted on a page of our Website where you provide that information. By providing your information on that page you will be consenting to the disclosure of your information as described in that privacy notice.
As Described in a Click–Through Agreement. We reserve the right to disclose your information as described in any click–through agreement to which you have agreed.

This Privacy Policy applies only to our Website. You may visit other websites, through links on our Website, which may collect, use and share your PII or AAI in accordance with their own privacy policies.

If you register for Crocs on another website or use a website providing a service for Crocs, that website may provide PII or AAI about you and your transactions back to Crocs.

From time to time, for example, because of changes in the law or technology or the way we operate our business, we may ask your permission to use the information we have collected from you in new or different ways. We will do this by sending you a notice by email at the last email address you provided us, asking you to agree to the change. If you do not expressly agree to the change, we may, at our discretion, delete all or some of your PII from our databases to avoid using your information in ways to which you have not consented.

I got my first pair of these last year, and had planned on getting more whne they went on sale, only to find they had dissapeared from my local store. Aftae some research I figured out they were being discontinued. Thankfully I found a few pairs at the crocs outlet. Did have one problem, the bronze color tends to run a size small, so I had to upsize on them.
The only other issue was I had the sole on my first pair start to seperate from the bottom, I brought them into the crocs store and thye exchanged them for a brand new pair. Now that thye are being discontinued I need to know what to glue them with If the problem resurfaces . Great shoes Crocs always discontinues shoes I like.

I love this croc, I wear them to work , I am on my feet all day and my feet do not hurt in these shoes. I am very sad that I can not get them in other colors any more. They are more supportive then the classic Croc so to me they are more comfortable.

Comments about Crocs Retro Clog:
I love this design and especially the rubber soles were helpful - I had wanted them for long walks, light sports, etc. The soles did not disappoint, but the size of the crocs ran small (mostly because of the back strap). The crocs fits me nicely on 7 (I wear 7 in my other shoes/slippers) however once the back strap came up, it pushed my entire feet inward significantly, and with my toes crunched in, I wasn't able to walk in them anymore which was a shame. . Also as some others mentioned, it's pretty heavy relative to the classic crocs, wearing it without the back strap does not work well. And if you travel as much as I do, it adds more weight to your bags than my classic crocs. So I ended up returning/exchanging them for another design, which was an easy swap! Still I'm a supporter of Crocs,. I had my first classic pair for almost 10 years and traveled the world with it, super durable.
Comments about Crocs Retro Clog:
over all I love it! i recently got a new job and wear navy scrubs and this one goes really good with it. I often get compliments about this crocs, like colors and looks so comfortable..! it is comfortable but i feel a liiitle bit heavy to walk around, having said that it is durable. Anyways Crocs never disappointed me
Comments about Crocs Retro Clog:
Bought this white retro croc online, since none of their stores even the outlet ones have a WHITE CROCBAND CROC. Don't trust their size chart just order the size you normally wear in regular shoes or you will end up with a size bigger. since it says to round it to the bigger size after a small size survey, like i wear a 7.5 normally and it advised to make it into an 8 for a perfect fit, these are my home shoes so i don't mind the bigger size but if u plan to wear them out make sure u order your size...since its loose on the sides too due to the nature of the regular fit..... so the front and back needs to be just right to really enjoy them.
Comments about Crocs Retro Clog:

Comments about Crocs Retro Clog:
Love the look of these Crocs. Nice casual and comfortable slip-on. I did order a 12(I'm between an 11 1/2 and a 12), but it was too small. Sent it back for a 13, it fits great.
I was worried about the return shipping charge, but after contacting the company they waved the fee since there was no Croc store in my area in which to process the return.
Overall I'm happy with the purchase. Good addition to my shoe collection.

Comments about Crocs Retro Clog:
I got these to wear at the beach or water parks because they are so cute and feel great. They seem to fit like most the other Crocks. I wear a 6- 1/2 or 7 in regular shoes and a 6 fits good in these,but for lined Crocks I get a 7. I can't wait to rock these sweet puppies around this summer! ;)
Comments about Crocs Retro Clog:
The shoe does not restrict the top of your foot enough so consequently the foot slides forward inside the cavernous clog. When that happens your toes are constantly rubbing the shoe and turn into blisters. Bought them online and returned them to the nearest Croc store. Tried them all with no success because they are all huge even though I have wide feet. ended up with great flip-flops them.

The diversity of academic opportunity at NYU is extraordinary – and might at times be overwhelming to undergraduate students who are just beginning their journeys, or who are thinking about changing paths. Academic Advisement at the Academic Resource Center provides an opportunity for students to start a conversation with advisors outside of their main programs and to begin to explore the areas beyond their primary focus. For example, a Stern student might talk to a Tisch advisor about opportunities through the Open Arts curriculum, while Tisch student might talk to a CAS advisor about liberal arts courses. Students can discuss the Social Work minor in further depth, or explore other cross-school opportunities.
Throughout the year, Academic Advisors from across the University and from various programs will be present in the ARC for walk-in advising and information sessions. Check our calendar for our programs and events, or drop by for a walk-in advising session!
No appointments are needed – students can sign-in at our SMART Bar (our "academic concierge" at the front desk of the Academic Resource Center) to see the advisor on duty.

iPad zoom

In Disable Mobile Optimized View you can read:
By default PageLines accommodates mobile devices resolution and shows a mobile optimized view. Check this option to make it so users see your full site.
If you want double tap to zoom go to:
Site Options > Layout Editor > Disable Mobile Optimized View
and click in Disable Mobile View
I verify it on my iPad

I agree that disabling Mobile Optimized View restores the double tap to zoom on iPad.
However, this wasn't necessary before the latest version of Pagelines. A site using an earlier version of Pagelines has Mobile Optimized View AND double tap to zoom. see http://www.stincharfishing.co.uk/.
I like the Pagelines Mobile Optimized View, but I think users like and expect pinch/double tap to zoom even more. Surely we can keep both?
I'm not sure if this is a deliberate new design feature or a bug that needs reporting.

is there already news on this? I noticed this today also, I double-tapped with no success. A forum search brought me here. On most mobile phones the default setting is okay because it's mostly one column view, but on an iPad or Samsung tablet you often get to see the whole site with sidebars and all. Double-tapping and pinch-to-zoom would be really functional because type can be easily to small on tablets because you hold them further away.

I think their is an issue with fixed width and then mobile disabled. I had to change our site several times to find a setting that works both on the ipad and the full site. I am still not completely satisfied that I can't have a fixed width and both working for some reason, hopefully gets fixed though in the future. Since right now on our site if you change window size the site transforms to an alien. When I had both fixed aspect ratio and mobile , Sometimes ipad double clicking works then stops working weird, bugs out. I don't know if it has to do with a drop down nav bar making interference of some sort I have or not though.

Please open a new topic, provide a link to your site and describe the issue in details. This is an old topic and tacking your topic onto it doesn't really help us to diagnose your issue specifically. Thanks for your understanding.

The annual Grey Bloem-Glenwood rivalry will see the best of Free State and KZN feature in the Schoolboy Derby match of the weekend.
Grey Bloem have been the top school in the country this year, with an unbeaten record of 15 wins and two draws. Glenwood have suffered 5 defeats in their 16 fixtures, but have enjoyed a good run of form of late. Their derby victory over Maritzburg College will provide some much-needed confidence heading into the trip to Bloemfontein for Saturday's game.
Grey Bloem and the Green Machine have meet each other every year since 2005. Glenwood have only achieved one victory since then, a 14-10 win in 2006, while Grey Bloem have dominated with some big victories. The hosts should prove too strong for the inconsistent visitors this weekend.
Other big matches will see Outeniqua and Oudtshoorn meet in a FNB Classic Clash and unbeaten Noord-Kaap take on Kimberley neighbours Diamantveld.
Bishops face Wynberg and Rondebosch hosts SACS in traditional Cape derbies while Boishaai will try to overcome last weekend's upset loss to Gimmies when they tackle Boland Landbou at home.
Major schoolboy fixtures:
Grey PE vs Selborne College
Grey Bloem vs Glenwood
Grens vs Fichardtpark
Framesby vs Oakdale
Affies vs Daniel Pienaar
Dale vs Hudson Park
Noord-kaap vs Diamantveld
Paarl Boys' vs Boland Landbou
Paarl Gym vs De Kuilen
Rondebosch vs SACS
Bishops vs Wynberg Boys'
Bellville vs DF Malan
Brackenfell vs Huguenot
Tygerberg vs Strand

Documentation and Description
Languages and language groups which we are studying
Large Map [more]
An Atlas of the Araxes-Iran Linguistic Area
This project investigates contact phenomena leading to shared linguistic features among six different language families spoken in the South Caucasus (Georgia, Armenia, Azerbaijan), northern Iraq, northern Iran, and eastern Turkey. Data come primarily from published sources of naturalistic speech, supplemented by fieldwork in poorly documented languages and include some 330 phonological, grammatical, and lexical features. [more]
A grammar of Yakkha
Yakkha is a Tibeto-Burman language spoken in Eastern Nepal. The project will result in a grammar, a dictionary and a text corpus. [more]
A grammar of Bezhta
This project aims at the description of Bezhta. The grammar will include phonology, morphology and syntax. [more]
A grammar of Yeri
Yeri is a Torricelli language spoken in Sandaun Province, Papua New Guinea. The language is spoken in a single village called Yapunda, and is severely endangered, with approximately 100 speakers. The youngest generation speaks only Tok Pisin, and speakers under 40 often speak a simplified variety of the language. [more]
Documentation of Bena Bena
In this project we aim at an encompassing audio-visual documentation of the Bena Bena language, a Papuan language of the Gorokan language family spoken in the Eastern Highland Province of Papua New Guinea and culture.
Despite a fair number of speakers the Bena Bena language is to be regarded as a highly endangered language, because the younger generations prefer speaking Tok Pisin, the lingua franca of Papua New Guinea.The audio-visual documentation focuses on crucial aspects of Bena Bena culture like material culture, reciprocity and exchange practices, social relationships, person and identity, that is, how these concepts manifest themselves in culture and language.In cooperation with the community of Napamogona we are working on a Bena Bena dictionary (also available as a smartphone app) as well as a grammar of the language.We cooperate with members of the ANU (Prof. Nicholas Evans, Prof. Alan Rumsey), the Cairns Institute (Prof. Alexandra Y. Aikhenvald), The Univesity of Goroka (Department of Languages and Literature and the Media Department, Dr. Verena Thomas).
Documentation of Ternate Malay
Ternate Malay is the indigenous Malay dialect of the Island Ternate. [more]
Documentation of the Tlapanec language
Since 1991 I have been describing different aspects of the grammar of the Otomanguean language Tlapanec as spoken in Azoyú (Guerrero, southern Mexico). It is a complicated tonal language with unusual features of reference-tracking, case marking, and inflectional morphology. [more]
Inheritance and contact in a language complex: the case of Taa varieties (Tuu family)
Descriptive linguistic content is still usually presented in book form. This project explores ways how descriptive grammars can be published on the Internet. In a trivial sense, this can be made by publishing a pdf on the author's homepage. [more]
Language Contact in Indonesia
Nearly 800 languages are spoken in Indonesia, in addition to Indonesian (Bahasa Indonesia), the national language. The great majority of Indonesians are therefore proficient in at least two languages, their local home language and Indonesian. This makes Indonesia an ideal location in which to study language contact. [more]
Language documentation of Ghulfan (Kordofan-Nubian language in Sudan)
This is a joint language documentation project with Robert S. Williams (The American University in Cairo) and Angelika Jakobi (U Bayreuth). Ghulfan belongs to a group of fairly underdocumented languages of the people in the Nuba mountains in Southern Sudan. The project goal is a full description of all aspects of the grammar, including documentation of all main text genres.
Linguistic Field Work in Riau Province, Indonesia
When I first travelled to Riau province in Indonesia, all I knew about the region was what I had read in one place or another. The population was reported to be mostly ethnically Malay: for example, the Routledge atlas paints the entire province in a solid homogeneous yellow, standing for Malay. And the local dialect, together with that of the neighbouring Malaysian province of Johor, was reputed to be that which formed the basis for the standardization of Malay/Indonesian, the so-called "Johor-Riau Malay". [more]
The Javanese Dialect Mapping Project
The Javanese dialect mapping project aims to collect, document, and analyze various aspects of a number of Javanese dialects. Focus is given to in depth, naturalistic speech recordings, with the addition of word lists and elicitations. As part of the project, we are 'debunking' the myth of a 'standard' Javanese, based on the Surakarta and Yogyakarta varieties. [more]
The Kalahari Basin area: a 'Sprachbund' on the verge of extinction
The KBA project attempts to untangle some aspects of the complex linguistic and population history of the southern African groups speaking languages other than from the Bantu family. These are commonly subsumed under the unsubstantiated concept of a "Khoisan" family but might turn out to share certain traits because of convergence processes within a geographical area. The project will pursue a two-tiered approach, investigating southern Africa as a linguistic area from a broad perspective as well as offering fine-scaled studies of individual contact situations. The overall approach is a multidisciplinary one in involving linguists, molecular anthropologists and social anthropologists. [more]
Documentation of N!aqriaxe with a focus on contact influence
The purpose of this project is to document the highly endangered language N!aqriaxe. It is spoken in the Kalahari region in southern Botswana in the Kweneng district. The 40 speakers of the language are still found in the villages of Motokwe, Khekhenye, Tswaane, Dutlwe and probably some others. Like other minority languages (especially those of Khoisan origin) in Botswana, and elsewhere in southern Africa, this language is in danger of becoming extinct; most N!aqriaxe-speakers are older than 50 years and do not pass their language on to the younger members of the community. [more]
A Grammar of Kakua: A Language of Northwest Amazonia
Kakua is a language spoken in northwestern Amazonia, in the Vaupés region of eastern Colombia, between the Vaupés and Papurí Rivers. It is spoken by less than 200 people with a strong hunter-gatherer orientation. [more]
A Grammar of Haruai
After a break of over 25 years, Comrie has returned to his work on the Haruai language of the Papua New Guinea Highlands. The main product will be a grammar of the language, co-authored with John Davies (SIL International). [more]

Shimano Derailleur Shims
Reviewed by 2 customers

Best Uses
Comments about Shimano Ultegra FD6600/3 Clamp Adapter:
Earlier iterations had multiple tiny pieces to hold in place during assembly. This version has fewer parts and is easier to install, yet it works as well as the old style. The real solution would be a band clamp on the derailleur that would cinch down over a wide range of tubing diameters, something similar to a worm-screw type hose clamp.
Best Uses
Comments about Shimano Ultegra FD6600/3 Clamp Adapter:
It might be better to just use strips of rubber to squeeze in between the FD and the frame as opposed to using these. I expected it to be an easy set up. Takes some figuring to get it to work.

Before you make a deal with a girl in a mirror, reflect seriously on the source of the offer. Ichika Tachibana fails to take this advice in order to retrieve a lost charm, and as a result suddenly ends up with the magical forces of a Djinn at her command. Sounds like a good deal, right? Wrong.
At first things seem wondrous, with her new friend Manatsu assisting her via text messages and the occasional spell; but as her powers grow, Ichika's situation quickly goes from magical to nightmarish, and she finds herself drawn into an ever expanding web of deceptions, lies and increasingly dangerous situations. For what she's really done is subjected herself to seeing mankind as the Djinn see them. Unfortunately, they don't seem to place a high value on human life.

As I've said before, we love hearing about how our bags help keep your gear safe in the most unforeseen circumstances; like when your Honda Pilot gets tangled up with an army fuel truck and your camera gear is thrown from the car through a shattered rear window at highway speed as your roll end over end. Thankfully no one was seriously injured in the accident, but what about the camera gear? Read on to find out!
I've owned this backpack for two years and have always been very happy with it. Recently I've become even happier.
On August 17, 2012, my family and I were heading from Portage Michigan to Madison Wisconsin to attend a wedding. Early in our trip my wife, who was driving, pulled into the left lane of the highway to pass an Army tractor-trailer fuel tanker. As we were passing, the driver of the tanker made a sharp left turn into our lane. My wife swerved left in an attempt to miss the truck, but it didn't work: the right front of our vehicle hit the front of the truck. According to witnesses, we went airborne and rolled four times before we stopped. We were stunned and bruised, but okay.
After we got out of the car, and got some semblance of understanding for what had happened, I began looking at the trail of debris our car had left on the highway. My heart sank when I saw my backpack sitting in the median. It had been behind the rear seats of our Honda Pilot. It must have been tossed out of the rear (shattered) window. I had my Nikon D700, several lenses, a flash, and a portable hard drive in it. I feared for the worst but, when I opened it and began to look around I saw all the items were unscathed. I used the camera to take a few quick shots of the accident, and everything functioned perfectly.
So I commend you, and thank you, for building such a quality product. I've told several people about this, and will continue to sing your company's praises. I thought you should know too.

A skid row or skid road is a run-down or dilapidated urban area with a large population of impoverished abusers of alcohol and, often, other drugs. In a related expression, someone who is down and out is said to be "on the skids". The term originally referred literally to a path along which loggers skidded logs; that literal meaning is now obsolete. Its current sense appears to have originated in the Pacific Northwest.
Informally, there is an identified skid-row neighborhood in almost every major North American city. Some examples are Pioneer Square, Seattle, Washington, Skid Row in Los Angeles, San Francisco's Tenderloin District, and the Downtown Eastside in Vancouver. In recent years some historic North American skid rows, such as The Bowery in New York City, have lost their rundown character and have been gentrified.
Seattle's historic Skid Road district (now better known as Pioneer Square) centers on Yesler Way, widely believed to have originated as a "skid road" in the literal sense.
The 100-block of East Hastings Street in Vancouver, British Columbia, the heart of that city's "skid road" neighborhood, also lies on a historical skid road. In Seattle, logs were floated from the foothills of the Cascade Mountains across Lake Washington to the skid road up and over First Hill. The logs were then "skidded" by attaching a "choke" chain, or cable, to one end of the log. The log was then pulled by overhead cables, dragging or skidding the other end over the hill to the Seattle Waterfront, to a sawmill owned by Henry Yesler. However, Crowley questions whether the original geography of Seattle, with a sharp ravine near today's Fourth Avenue, would have allowed such a system. The Vancouver Skid Road was part of a complex of such roads in the dense forests surrounding the Hastings Mill and adjacent to the settlement of Granville, Burrard Inlet (Gastown).
Murray Morgan, in his 1951 book Skid Road, described how the loggers spent the summers in the mountains cutting down trees and how the winter snow and mud hampered operations. The out-of-work loggers would hang out on Skid Road hoping to find work and would often run out of money, sleep on the streets, and find themselves reduced to begging. This is where the connection between the operation of skidding logs and being poor and unemployed originated.
However, the term in its modern sense did not become popular until the early 20th century, when the Rev. Mark A. Matthews, popularized (and possibly originated) the current sense of the term "Skid Road" in his sermons. The Seattle-area Presbyterian minister and ardent prohibitionist regularly used the term in his sermons, and was explicit about his etymology: "Yesler Way was once a skid road down which logs were pushed to Henry Yesler's sawmill on the waterfront. Today it is a skid road down which human souls go sliding to hell!
"Skid row" is most likely a corruption coming from areas outside of the term's region of origin.
A portion of Vancouver's Skid Row, Gastown, has also been rejuvenated but is in a difficult coexistence with the nearby impoverished Downtown Eastside along East Hastings Street. Downtown Eastside is infamous for its open drug trade, drug-related deaths (Vancouver's Skid Row has the highest per capita heroin-related deaths in the entire North American continent), prostitution and the highest rate of HIV and AIDS infection in North America. The poorest urban area in Canada, it is wedged between Downtown, Chinatown and Gastown. These areas are frequented by tourists, and East Hastings Street is a major thoroughfare. These avenues of exposure make the Downtown Eastside a highly visible example of a skid row. The Downtown Eastside (sometimes abbreviated D.T.E.S.) is also home to Insite, the only legal intravenous drug safe injection site in Canada, part of a harm reduction policy aimed at helping the area's drug addicted residents.
The name Skid Row is sufficiently official that fire engines and ambulances serving the neighborhood have historically had "Skid Row" emblazoned on their sides. On 1 June 2006, the Los Angeles Times reported that fire officials plan to change the legend on the vehicles to read "Central City East". Many residents support the change, but it is opposed by firefighters and some residents who take pride in the sense that they live in a tough place.

Kouichi dreams of being a hero, but in reality he's a punching bag for every bully on the block. His life flatlines when the mysteriously naked Emi crash lands on his pitiful existence, thrusting Kouichi into the middle of an intergalactic showdown between rival races of self-regenerating Machinas.
Through his death-bed partnership with the Linebarrel mecha, Kouichi gains the strength to stand up to his tormentors and crush the alien invasion force that's determined to conquer Earth. There's just one problem: all this newfound power and special attention from nearly naked babes is turning Kouichi into a jerk. His friends can't stand him, he makes his dream girl sick, and those aliens want to kill him extra dead!
Kouichi may have the mechanized muscle to save the world, but he has much to learn about being a true "Hero of Justice."

Report: White House could blunt impact of sequestration - at least for a while
Thursday - 11/8/2012, 4:19pm EST
With each passing day sequestration, the automatic across-the-board budget cuts set to take effect in January, creep closer to reality.
The $1.2 trillion in cuts over 10 years — $109 billion next year alone, split equally between Defense and civilian agencies — have led many budget and defense analysts to warn of a looming fiscal cliff. But a new report from independent watchdog group OMB Watch suggests the White House has a few tools at its disposal to blunt the impact of the cuts.
OMB's apportionment authority
The first is the Office of Management and Budget's authority to control the rate of federal spending over the course of the fiscal year, known as apportionment.
"Congress, constitutionally, has the authority to set the budget, but once they pass those appropriations bills, it is up to the administration — the President — to decide how that money will be spent over the course of the year," said Patrick Lester, the director of federal fiscal policy at OMB Watch and the report's author, in an interview In Depth with Francis Rose.
If Congress and the administration agree on a broad budget deal early next year — even after sequestration goes into effect — it's likely the cuts will wind up having only a short-term effect, according to the report.
Essentially, in the first few weeks after sequestration is triggered, OMB could ramp up spending "just enough to prevent those cuts from really biting," Lester said.
At most, though, that only buys the administration about a month, he said. OMB's legal authority to use apportionment in this way is also unclear, the report cautioned. In fact, under current law, OMB is directed to use apportionment to prevent overspending in the early part of a fiscal year, the report stated.
Agencies can shift funds
Agencies, themselves, also have some options to "cushion the impact" of sequestration, the report noted. Once Congress appropriates funding, agencies are tasked with obligating those funds to specific programs or projects.
The agencies control the rate at which funds are obligated over the fiscal year, and many agencies are allowed to carry over unobligated funds from one year to the next.
Other methods of shifting funding include transfers, which move funding between appropriated line-items and reprogramming, which allows managers to shift funding within an appropriation.
According to the report, both methods offer "substantial ability to redirect cuts away from sensitive areas of spending to other areas that be less sensitive in the first few weeks of the year."
None of these methods would exactly be unfamiliar territory for agencies.
Lester told Federal News Radio because of the increasing prevalence of last-minute continuing resolutions, agencies are now "quite used to basically pinching their pennies at the beginning of the fiscal year waiting to see what that final bill looks like."
Personnel costs present challenge
However, federal managers will face constraints in attempting to shield federal employees from cuts.
"It is more difficult to delay spending on employee compensation and benefits because these costs are incurred throughout the year," Lester wrote in the report. And managers often have less flexibility to reprogram funds because "some budget accounts are so overwhelmingly dominated by personnel-related costs that avoiding personnel cuts becomes difficult, if not impossible."
That leaves layoffs, known as reductions-in-force (RIF), and furloughs on the table, Lester wrote in the report.
However, in the continuing resolution approved by Congress in September, lawmakers created an escape hatch of sorts, allowing OMB to accelerate spending in the early months of the year to avoid furloughs. Also, the law, which created the sequester, has allowed the President to exempt military personnel costs.

PERSEUS (Portal-Enabled Resources via Shibbolized End-User Security) addressed the key challenge of Shibboleth-based access management to information resources via an institutional portal, using the uPortal Open Source portal toolkit. The project's aim was to deliver a generalised campus architecture for adoption by FE and HE institutions, supported by documentation at conceptual and technical levels, and reusable software components available as Open Source. PERSEUS extended work started in the LSE-led SECURe project, concluded in March 2005. The most important function for portal middleware is authorisation management to the hybrid collections of resources, for institutional learning, teaching, research and administration - resolving (with minimal human intervention) questions of 'who can access what'.

Rotarod Data for Brd7 (MAAB)
Standard Protocol
Rotarod (week 10) (Mice were fed on Mouse Breeder Diet (5021, Labdiet) from weaning): Mice are assessed for motor activity and coordination by rotarod (Bioseb). Three 5 minute trials on a rod constantly accelerating from 4-40rpm are performed with a 15 minute inter-trial interval, and the latency and reason for ending each trial is recorded. The trial is ended when the mouse either falls off the rod, jumps off the rod, or performs a passive rotation (the mouse grasps the surface of the rod and rides around the rod instead of walking on it).
