NEW YORK — Jim Tracy wants his Colorado Rockies pitchers to take it to the limit.
And his 75-pitch boundary for starters seems to be working of late.
Tyler Chatwood combined with four relievers in a 1-0 victory over the New York Mets on Thursday, completing a four-game sweep and giving the last-place Rockies a five-game winning streak that tied their season high.
"What we just did today is not easy to do. It's not easy to do — sweep a four-game series on the road," Tracy said.
Ever since the Rockies went to a four-man rotation in June, their starters have been on tight limits. The Colorado manager has kept the restraints in place even as the Rockies have gone back to a quintet of starters.
Chatwood was pulled after allowing three hits over three innings. He needed 65 pitches to get nine outs.
"I was getting close to the 75 pitches, so they made the decision," Chatwood said. "You always want to be economical. I think that's your job as a starting pitcher, to go as deep as you can in a game. And I think that 75 pitches kind of makes you go right after the guy."
No Rockies starter has reached 100 pitches since Jeremy Guthrie threw 102 against Oakland on June 12, according to STATS LLC.
Forget about complete games — they've gone the way of the Dodo bird in Colorado. The Rockies haven't had one since Jhoulys Chacin in a 2-1 loss at Cincinnati on Aug. 11 last year. Tracy still was raving about Chacin's six-inning, 73-pitch effort in Tuesday's 6-2 victory.
"Fifty-one of the 73 were strikes," he said. "In my opinion, that's quality major league pitching. When you throw 80 pitches or you throw 75 pitches in three innings, or 78 pitches in three innings, and someone's going to sit here from what I've experienced in over 36 years and tell me that that's quality major league pitching, I'll strongly disagree with whoever is uttering it to me. I want our guys to understand what quality major league pitching is all about."
On the other side, New York's Collin McHugh pitched two-hit ball over seven scoreless innings in a dazzling big league debut. After he left, the Rockies quickly went ahead against Bobby Parnell (2-3) as Jordany Valdespin misplayed Tyler Colvin's leadoff drive in the eighth into a game-changing triple.
Colvin hit Parnell's second pitch to straightaway center, where the rookie Valdespin took two steps in, then realized he had misjudged the drive. He backpedaled a half-dozen steps and tried for a leaping, backhand grab, but the ball sailed over his glove.
"I knew I hit it well, and I knew it had pretty good backspin on it," Colvin said. "It was going to be decided on how he read it, and he took a couple steps in.
Chris Nelson fouled off a pair of 0-2 pitches, then singled to center past the drawn-in infield.
Brooklyn native Adam Ottovino and Rex Brothers (8-2) followed Chatwood with two innings each, and Willie Harris escaped a runner-on-second situation in the eighth.
Matt Belisle got his first save since June 22, 2010, against Boston following some ninth-inning drama. Pinch-hitter Justin Turner singled leading off and was sacrificed to second by Valdespin. Daniel Murphy flied to center and David Wright flied to right.
PHILADELPHIA — John Mayberry Jr. hit an RBI single in the bottom of the 11th inning to lift the Philadelphia Phillies to a victory over the Cincinnati Reds.
Todd Frazier drove in all three runs for the NL Central-leading Reds, who were seeking their first series win in Philadelphia since 2006.
The Phillies tied it in the eighth on Jimmy Rollins' sacrifice fly and won it on Mayberry's hit to split the four-game set and take over sole possession of third place in the NL East for the first time since April.
ST. LOUIS — David Freese's three-run homer snapped the Cardinals' seven-game long-ball drought and St. Louis beat the Houston Astros to complete a three-game sweep.
Freese and Matt Holliday each had four RBIs and Allen Craig had three hits and three RBIs. The Cardinals shrugged aside a 4-0, fourth-inning deficit and sent Houston to its seventh straight loss.
The Astros are 0-4 while getting outscored 32-8 since interim manager Tony DeFrancesco replaced Brad Mills as leader of the stripped-down roster. Houston has won just seven of its last 50 overall.
DETROIT — Alex Avila's RBI single with two outs in the 11th gave the Detroit Tigers a 3-2 victory over the Toronto Blue Jays, one inning after center fielder Austin Jackson kept the game tied with a spectacular catch.
The Blue Jays had a runner on second in the 10th when Anthony Gose lifted what looked like a sure hit to the gap in right-center. But Jackson raced over and made a diving catch.
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — Alex Cobb pitched a four-hitter for his first major league shutout and the surging Tampa Bay Rays beat the Oakland Athletics to pull within 2 1/2 games of the first-place New York Yankees in the AL East.
Matt Joyce hit a two-run double in a five-run fifth inning against Tyson Ross, hastily called up from the minors to pitch in place of suspended Oakland starter Bartolo Colon.
BOSTON — Kendrys Morales led off Los Angeles' two-run 10th inning with a solo homer, and the Angels completed a three-game sweep of Boston by outlasting the Red Sox.
The Red Sox wasted a 6-0 lead then rallied from deficits of 8-7 in the sixth and 12-11 in the ninth. But closer Alfredo Aceves struggled after Boston was one out away from victory in the ninth. Aceves (2-8) gave up five runs and six hits in one inning, and the Red Sox lost for the 11th time in 15 games.
Ernesto Frieri (2-0) got the win after giving up a tying solo homer in the ninth to Cody Ross, his 19th of the season, and an RBI single in the 10th to Dustin Pedroia, who drove in five runs.

The Translator fully supports customized machine translation systems, using the Translator Hub.
Getting Started Guides:
Update: Check out the new installer you can download to make this really easy!
Following up on last week's post on the integration of translation into Office, here are the instructions to set it up in Office 2003, for our users who do not have Office 2007.
First bring up the task pane by selecting "Task Pane" on the View menu (or pressing Ctrl-F1):
In the Task pane drop-down menu (here labeled "Getting Started"), select the "Research" task pane.
After you've chosen the "Research" task pane, there should be a "Research options" hyperlink at the bottom of the pane. Click on this hyperlink to bring up the task pane.
Here you'll need to type in the address of the Microsoft Translator Web Service: http://www.windowslivetranslator.com/officetrans/register.asmx
Then click the "Add" button to continue.
Just click the "Install" button in this dialog.
Note that you can't check any of the boxes; this is expected behavior. Translation systems, unlike other Research Pane plug-ins, are enabled in a different dialog. The next steps will cover this.
Now click "OK" to close the research options dialog.
At this point, Word may bring up a dialog saying, "Microsoft Word can't open the translation feature. This feature is not currently installed. Would you like to install it now?" Click "Yes" to install the feature.
Just below the combo boxes that allow you to select the source and target language, there should be a hyperlink labeled "Translation options..". Click on it to open the translation options dialog. (Depending on what text you have highlighted and which translation features are installed and enabled on your machine, the Research task pane may look slightly different. That's OK; just find the "Translation options..." hyperlink.)
This is where you specify which translation engines you'd like to use for each language pair. By default Word uses WorldLingo for all language pairs; this is where you can choose Windows Live Translator instead. (Certain Word installations don't seem to come with WorldLingo pre-installed, so you may not have to change anything here.)
The language pairs currently available from MSR-MT are as follows:
English ↔ Chinese (Simplified)
English ↔ French
English ↔ German
English ↔ Italian
English ↔ Japanese
English ↔ Spanish
English → Arabic
English → Chinese (Traditional)
English → Dutch
English → Korean
English → Portuguese (Brazil)
You may have slightly different settings for Bilingual Dictionaries (on the top half of the dialog); that's OK. You only need to look at and change the Machine Translation settings (on the bottom of the dialog). Again, if Windows Live Translator is already selected, you don't have to do anything.
Click OK to close the dialog. You should now be ready to translate!
Now find or create a document that has some content you'd like to translate.
The easiest way to bring up and use the translation task pane is to simply select some content in your Word document, right click, and select the "Translation" option. You can also go to the Research task pane, type a query into the box, and select the Translation subpane.
By default, Word will list a variety of language pairs, even if you haven't installed a machine translation system for those pairs. In the "From" and "To" boxes, select a source and target language that correspond to one of the language pairs you installed above.
After a brief delay (during which the web service is invoked and the selected text is translated), the MT output should appear in the research pane.
At the bottom of the MT output, there's a button that allows you to easily insert the translated output into your document.
Our web page translation includes a user interface we refer to as the Bilingual Viewer. It offers 4 types of bilingual views which users can choose depending on preference. The side-by-side and top/bottom views offer synchronized scrolling, highlighting, and navigation. In the two single language views, you can hover your mouse pointer over a sentence in one language and the corresponding passage in the other language is automatically displayed nearby for ease of reference. Finally, we render the translated text progressively on a web page in order to make it more quickly available for the user to read, while other page elements are still being translated in the background.
To change your view, just click on one of the four options in the "Views" section on the upper right part of the site:
Side-by-side view:
Top/Bottom view:
Original with hover translation view:
Translation with hover original view:
Note: when you click on "Translate this page" while using Live Search, the web page will be opened in the Bilingual Viewer (in side-by-side view or the view you selected during your last viewing session). Read more about that here.
Check out the bilingual viewer today if you haven't played around with it before! And as always, let us know your feedback :)
Now available: The Windows Live Toolbar Translator Button!
So many people said: I wish I had a simple button to translate a web page when I need it! Imagine: you browse for the latest digital camera information and before you know it, you end up on a Japanese web page and you don't understand what it says. Did you bookmark the URL to a web page translator? Wouldn't it be convenient to just get an English translation of this Japanese site with a simple mouse click?
If it happened to you before that your browsing experience crossed over to a specific language, your Windows Live Toolbar button will remember the last language you needed a translation for. E.g. if it was from Japanese to English, a simple click on your button will now give you an English translation in our unique bilingual view along-side the Japanese original site. If you are, however, not in need of a Japanese-->English translation, but landed on a – say - French site, you can easily adjust the language selection in the bilingual viewer's language drop down box. Or: you can expand the little downward arrow next to the toolbar button: and choose which language selection you would like to see applied when the button is clicked:
With this toolbar button, web page translations are literally only a mouse click away. It doesn't get much easier than that!! Try it out.
Cheers - Andrea (Your friendly neighborhood Translator PM :-))

ArcheAge: Boom 50

Boom, my main character is level 50 and I'm among the last to hit 50 in our guild. There are a few stragglers behind me but most people that started playing with us during head-start are already at max level.

ArcheAge: Another Milestone Reached
Posted by Mystic Worlds

This past weekend I achieved my next in-game goal of owning one of the new Farm Cart vehicles. Whew! It took a concentrated effort to raise the 200 gold needed just to purchase the most expensive of the necessary crafting components, a Thunderstruck log. I ended up emptying my bank of 150G + Workmen's Compensation potions to meet the asking prices.
ArcheAge Alpha – Guildhall Constructed
Posted by Mystic Worlds
on 26 September 2014, 7:00 am
Big WOOT to The Immortal Imperial Legion and all the members who contributed to the huge effort of acquiring and constructing our first shared house - guildhall. The components needed to construct this size house is no simple endeavor. The GH is located in one of my favorite locations in game. A little island between Solzreed and Two Crowns. I'd taken pictures of the island during Alpha with its former inhabitants. Its really lovely at night. We were the first to place a house design here and complete the construction. Unfortunately, our effort to secure the rest of the island for our guild fell a bit short. We have two other un-constructed properties here but riff-raff have also moved into the neighborhood. They are guilds that are known PKers - gank members of our own faction. I've already had a few of them attempt to gank me on my sailing...
ArcheAge - Much to do. So little Time
Posted by Mystic Worlds
on 25 September 2014, 11:22 am
I've been playing ArcheAge now for almost two weeks. In the last couple of days, the outrageous queues have abated for most people. Thus far the solution has been a combination of Trion performing daily server restarts to rout AFK bots, more servers, additional capacity on existing servers, better AFK detection, aggressive assault campaign on bots and gold spam and more restrictive acceptable AFK conditions. As a Patron, my 3 to 4 hour queue has reduced to 20 to 30 minutes if I log in before primetime NA. Primetime has gone from 5 to 6 hours, down to 1 to 2 hours for Patrons. I sometimes feel as though I'm scurrying all over the place trying to achieve my AA goals while also having fun. My game play experience is precisely what I expected it to be minus the queue drama. And I have no regrets about having purchased the Archeum Founders pack to gain access to alpha and I will be subscribing once the paid subscription time bundled in that package has expired.
ArcheAge - My Journey so Far

Minus the long queue times, most of the irritating launch issues have been resolved. The queue is more stable albeit 1 hour wait at 7:30 AM eastern and upwards of 3 hours starting at 4:40 PM eastern. Being disconnected while in game allows a 5 minute grace period for logging right back in without a wait. A hotfix was applied during live game-play last night to correct the issue people were having where all of their characters were missing from the character select page, leaving them no recourse but to restart the game and re-enter the queue. OUCH! True story, happened to me twice. *sigh*
ArcheAge Land Shortage: Never give up! Never Surrender!
Posted by Mystic Worlds
on 18 September 2014, 10:24 am
While the vast majority of property plots in ArcheAge are gone, there is still an opportunity to trip across open spots for 8x8 farms. Six days after the land rush began in head-start, Sarzan was able to find a few open spots in northern Two Crowns. WOOT!! Don't give up on finding 8x8 farm spots. MANY PEOPLE awkwardly placed 16x16 house designs to hold a location until they'd completed their 16x16 farm quest. As those are swapped out gaps may emerge.

The past few days I've seen a string of players on trail baffled as to what they've done. It's happened so much recently that it became a topic of discussion in guild voice chat. Our opinions ranged from people are lying to avoid guilty convictions or they're plain stupid. Their rap sheet is right there stating all of their crimes.

PSA for New Players With an influx of players coming into ArcheAge who may have little to no experience with the game, I thought I'd do a post for some of the more common questions I see asked in Faction chat. I'll try to be as concise as possible since it's a long list.
ArcheAge - FIRST!!

on 15 September 2014, 7:08 pm
Quick happy post after all the weekend drama. Today I completed building one of my two houses. I'm first in my housing province to get their house constructed. It's pretty much all I've been focused on since placing down my farm and securing the location with a design. Every time I had labor available I mined ore under water to avoid the crush, made sure to stay on top of harvesting trees on my farm while doing trade pack chickens on the public farm. I only did questing when I was completely out of labor. I had everything ready to go by this afternoon except for 20 pieces of lumber. Anxious to be done with it in case there was crash/authentication/queue nonsense, I decided to purchase the lumber from the Auction House. 600 stone and 300 pieces of wood later, BAM my first house is finished! My second house is...
ArcheAge - The Agony of Head-Start
Posted by Mystic Worlds
on 15 September 2014, 1:19 pm
It Burns Us Precious Well the ArcheAge head start has had more than a few issues. Yes, it's an MMO so we can expect problems on the first day of access. If leveling was all that was at stake, I don't think the outrage would be as great. However, if you've been following ArcheAge, you know that owning PROPERTY is a huge component in crafting, the economy and your ability to earn gold.
ArcheAge - Almost Home

I spent a moderate amount of time in Open Beta trying out pure caster combinations. After much experimentation and trying every permutation that was caster with healing, I landed on Justicar (Occultism, Vitalism and Defense). Necromancer was a close second but was trumped by maintained that ability to more easily swap into Paladin by changing out Occultism for Battlerage.
ArcheAge - Woot, Headstart Sept 12th!!!
Posted by Mystic Worlds
on 29 August 2014, 10:55 pm
I'm SO HAPPY we're having a September release of ArcheAge. I'm ready to play for real. Open Beta starts on Thurs Sept 4th. I'll still be on but not playing much now that launch is so very close. Yeah, I know I said that before but I mean it this time. There's zero point in continuing to progress. My character, Alysianah, is on the Alpha server. If anyone tries out OB and there's room on Alpha look me up. Can give you a ship tour, port you to different places, make you some food, etc. Don't let the PVP scare you away from at least trying a really solid fantasy MMO. *Jumping for joy*
ArcheAge: Justice System
Posted by Mystic Worlds
on 27 August 2014, 1:48 pm
In a game that supports nonconsensual PVP, it's good to have a justice system. It may not help you sleep better after being ganked for you hard earned wares. However, reading trial chat is an endless form of amusement. We already have infamous players (Chalupa) and guilds (Darks Ascension) on the Alpha server.

Just a stone's throw from level 50, I should be saving every copper toward crafting my Conquerors plate armor set. Meh, that behavior sounds much too practical for being in an Alpha! I was processing hide into leather when I noticed the recipe for crafting Bakehan's Swimfins. Hmm, I thought, I have the expertise points to make those. That jogged my memory about having seen pictures of players wearing dive helmets. A quick search of my metalwork recipes showed that I could craft that too. That's all she wrote, I was off and running toward a new adventure!

I'm level 48 now and figured I might as well get to 50 since the release seems to be a couple of months away at the least. I was hoping that the date posted on Steam for a mid-September would be confirmed by Trion but no such luck. Much too high of a level to pick up where I had previously stopped questing in my early 20s, I rode out to Halcyona to see if there were any quests there worth my time.

Wow, that went by in the blink of an eye. I started playing the ArcheAge Alpha on July 20th. I hit the current max level without even trying. That said, I have put in an awful amount of hours. Around level 10 or so, I left the theme park rails behind to strike out on my own and fell in MMO love with AA. I'm very pleased with the outcome. If this weren't an Alpha, I'd be considering an alt in order to try a pure caster class and experience another racial zone. But since it is, that will have to wait.
ArcheAge: Gear at Level 50
Posted by Mystic Worlds
on 25 August 2014, 1:59 pm
After reviewing the components necessary to upgrade my armor to Conqueror's and beyond, I decided to use the cloth version gifted to me by our guild leader Fannel. Of the available roles as a Paladin, my preference in a group setting is to heal. In ArcheAge, all classes can wear every armor type. However, cloth provides better stats for healing roles. You can augment your armor with gem slots but you'd still be behind the curve compared to someone in cloth using the exact class build.
ArcheAge – Farm Wagon, Huuzah!

Last night our guild joined the "we have a farm wagon" club. Fannel, Brokenwind and I were online pissing and moaning about our inability to grow the stupidly random thunderstruck trees needed to craft one. No one knows for certain the circumstances that cause a tree to be "hit by lightning. There are lots of theories but the rarity of the occurrence makes it nearly impossible to know for sure. Our guild has planted illegal tree farms consisting of hundreds of trees, without producing a single one. Others have done 1K plus trees and have come up empty too.
ArcheAge - War on my Doorstep!
Posted by Mystic Worlds
on 18 August 2014, 12:23 pm
I believe my previous posts have established that because of the nonconsensual PVP, ArcheAge isn't going to be everyone's cup of tea. Yes, you can level to max and hardly ever encounter PVP if you forgo seeing all of the content or focus on commerce in non-PVP enabled zones. However, game design makes it such that you may still be impacted financially, even when you escape direct combat.
ArcheAge Alpha - Slowing Down
Posted by Mystic Worlds
on 14 August 2014, 5:13 pm
I've played more than enough of AA to confirm that I'll be playing at launch. I've achieved most of what I wanted to try out during Alpha. I've certainly played more than I have during a pre-release for any other MMO. I still have plenty to look forward to at launch. I've done so little of the quest content and haven't stepped foot in a single dungeon. I did some healing in a max level PVP zone while guild members were farming XP, leveling alternative skills sets and unique drops. No one engaged enemy faction while we were at it. It reminded me of the impromptu detentes on PVP servers during in Burning Crusade. Farming motes was bad enough without fucking around with each other. This particular set of are elite, tightly packed and respawn rather quickly. Jacking around with each other would mean insta-death and greifing each other back...

I was level 36 rolling around in level 20 armor until recently and I'm not alone. There are two contributing factors to the level and armor gap. Firstly, the primary source of obtaining gear is by completing quests. I won't retrace what I already discussed in this post.

Belphagore, the guild member who donated a large house to serve as our guild hall, gave me the deed to his old house. Like what!!??!! I had to purchase an item from the Cash Shop called an Appraisal to facilitate the transaction. Luckily, I had some left. It's not the house design that I wanted but this beggar certainly won't try to be a chooser.
ArcheAge Alpha – Weekend Fun and Shenanigans
Posted by Mystic Worlds
on 5 August 2014, 12:24 am
I had a great time in ArcheAge this past weekend. I believe a key to that is being willing to participate in all that the game has to offer beyond the safe PVE. I did a little bit of everything minus dungeons. I feel like I always have so much to do of my own. Combined with guild activities that don't require max level to participate, I don't feel like I want to spend 30 to 60 minutes in an instance in an alpha.

Last week I mentioned that I'd given up on owning a cottage in ArcheAge because of the click-war participation needed to get one at this stage. I used the components I'd assembled to build a ship instead. After all, it's only alpha and I didn't see the need to spend more time on the affair.

Collecting for the Future: New Acquisitions of Contemporary Design
- Dates: March 1, 1984 through June 24, 1984
- Collections: Decorative Arts
... more
Spring 1984: Collecting For The Future: New Acquisitions of Contemporary Design, an exhibition of fifteen examples of furniture and lighting of the past 15 years by leading international designers opened in the Decorative Arts Changing Exhibition Gallery on March 1 and will be on view through Sunday, June 24, 1984.
Made up mostly of commercially produced designed objects, the exhibition focuses on the wide variety of forms and styles in contemporary decorative arts. Designers from America, Switzerland, Japan, Denmark, Sweden, and Italy are represented. Works by avant-garde architects such as Mario Botta and Ettore Sottsass, Jr., as well as those of established industrial designers like David Rowland and Mario Bellini, illustrate the vitality and scope of recent design.
The Brooklyn Museum has a distinguished collection of twentieth-century decorative arts and is actively collecting in this area. Christopher Wilk, Assistant Curator, Decorative Arts, stated, "Because of their nature, mass-produced objects may not be saved, treasured, and handed down from generation to generation as unique, handcrafted objects have been. It is particularly appropriate to acquire these objects now, so that the history of the recent past will be preserved for museum visitors of the future."

Another approach altogether, Assayas's Clean tracks the pilgrim's progress of a low-level pop industry diva (Maggie Cheung) as she struggles to yank herself out of the sump where years of scag have placed her. Though no less radiant than usual (or less incongruously healthful than your average movie star as junkie), Cheung is fearlessly unlikable, making Clean a pungent portrait of dependent personalities and the strain they put on the social weave. Assayas only uncages his ex-wife's formidable smile once or twice, never demanding our empathy. Narratively orthodox, the movie is also a spot-on poison-pen sketch of the basement bar-and-motel-room subterranea of the fringe rock world.
Téchiné's Changing Times is also conventionalverging on the paperback romantic. But the context is a contemporary salmagundi of social cross-intentions: Catherine Deneuve is an aging beauty and radio host married to a Moroccan doctor (Gilbert Melki) and living in Tangiers, where her bisexual son (Malik Zidi) visits with his petulant Arab girlfriend (Lubna Azabal) and their boy. Gérard Depardieu soon appears as the living epitome of globalized impactwho, it turns out, is Deneuve's long-jilted lover, now on a mission of the heart. Téchiné's narrative threads don't knit together, and the climactic deus ex machina is virtually Lelouchian, but the actors all attack their little moments of reality with gusto.
Denis's The Intruder also considers generational angst, but in exactly what terms it's hard to saybeautiful and resolutely enigmatic, the film is composed almost entirely of the glowering Michel Subor gazing out windows, walking with dogs, lying in bed, everywhere from the Jura Mountains to Pusan to the tropics. Hearts are literally exchanged (Katia Golubeva appears occasionally as an organ trafficker, I think), and Grégoire Colin gets sacrificed off-camera, but the film is so narrative-immune that it's virtually a waking dreamyou could dose and confuse it with your own subconscious images. Antithetical in every way, Olivier Marchal's 36 Quai des Orfèvres is a self-conscious noir epic with as much cultural texture and urban eloquence as Michael Mann's Heat, starring Daniel Auteuil and Depardieu as opposing cops fatally caught in each other's crosshairs. As comfortingly beholden to genre, Yolande Moreau and Gilles Porte's When the Sea Rises is a misfit rom-com that tracks a cut-rate one-woman theater show across northern France.
In more than one way, Lucile Hadzihalilovic's Innocence stands outbased on a Wedekind story and helmed by Gaspar Noé's producer-editor-girlfriend, this fruitcake-rich fable about a mysterious, overgrown girls' school surrounded by an unscalable wall, where new students appear in coffins, the hair ribbons are age coded, and an ancient sewer system rumbles under the forest, is a green heaven of metaphoric darkness. The equations of childhood to totalitarian citizenship and puberty to the underworld are just the first tendrils of what might be the year's most original movieif a stateside distributor ever takes the challenge.

For me, a set of 235/45/17 Sumitomos, priced at $122.99 each, comes out to a total of $658.xx. I priced a set of Dunlops for my car via Discount Tire ($119.00 each) and they came out to $589.xx ($549.00 after MIR) for all 4 tires. With certificates it came out to $661.xx (621.00 after MIR) so I'm going with Discount Tire.
to other tire places from discount tire and advance auto for their awesome Qs!
Well if it looks to good to be true it is. Ive need four new tires bad. P185/65 R14. My dads car takes the same size. Back in August Bridgestone was running a special buy 3 get 1 free, at Costco. Long story short with the free services he paid $298.99 out the door including tax etc. I went to NTB and some how it costs a little over $500 after tax for the same size tires and 2 free. How does that work? Oh well I can get by another week with my baldies, and a slow leak. I called Costco they dont have any BOGO's this week. Hopefully they do next. I really do not want spend more then 300 after everything.

Dirty Mittens: Pinky Swear
Indie Rock Portland Oregon USA

Feist, Broken Social Scene, Architecture
Indie Rock Portland Oregon USA
CDBaby iTunes
Sounds Like:
Feist, Broken Social Scene, Architecture
Portland, Oregon has always been known for producing great bands from Pavement to The Decemberists. One of the newest names to be added to the lineup is The Dirty Mittens, a five piece indie rock outfit that make the most infectious music you will ever hear.
The Dirty Mittens have recently released the 'Pinky Swear' EP independently via Cdbaby.com.
The album opens with 'The Small Things' which is an upbeat tempo song that will have you dancing before you even get out of the first verse. This is only the beginning of what is to come. 'Time Forgiver' is a brilliant track that mimics Feist but the band manages to make it their own.
The intensity of sounds that blend in this album from horns to pianos make for a perfect performance that is truly unique in the indie rock world. The Dirty Mittens not only reminds one a bit of Canadian rockers Broken Social Scene but also of Architecture in Helsinki, both flattering comparisons.
Singer Chelsea Morrisey has one of the sweetest voices in indie pop as it glides flawlessly from song to song. 'Amelia' is a very dramatic but dreamy song filled with haunting melodies as Morrisey sings 'We're all going down, and so are you', an unforgetable lyric.'Ten Feet Deep' is the softest song on the record but still manages to fit right in with the rest of the tracks.
The EP ends with 'The Dock', a song filled with catchy guitar riffs, a xlyaphone and the incredible horn playing that has been throughout the record. The Dirty Mittens are highly recommended and once you start listening to them you'll never want to stop. The band may seem young in years, but they sound like old pros.

Collopy's Cross in Limerick, Ireland Collopy's Cross (Air: The Mountains of Mourne) Back in Patrickswell is a spot I well know Where the Collopy family lived long ago, There was Tom, Tim and Mike, just to mention a few, Of the grandest old neighbours that I ever knew. 'Twas there that we gathered in days long gone by, When I think of it now sure my heart gives a sigh, There by the old stone walls all covered in moss, We sang songs and told stories at Collopy's Cross. A long time ago before Ireland was free, The Tans murdered three men in the town of Bruree, And leaving behind them the sorrow and gloom, They got in their lorry and drove back to Croom. Where they drank and they boasted of things they had done, And the three fine young men they had put to the gun. Then they set out for Limerick to report to their boss, But "The Boys" sealed their fate just past Collopy's Cross. At Tom Reidy's dance hall I met this lovely lass, Who came down on her bike from a place near Caherass, I remember her well as my own first sweetheart, And we vowed to each other that we'd never part. But for want of employment I had to go 'way, And oh how she pleaded and begged me to stay, She whispered "my darling you're my greatest loss" As I kissed her goodbye there at Collopy's Cross. Dear old Patrickswell as you prosper and grow, May you please spare a thought for those days long ago, When our hearts they were light and out troubles were few, And our friends were the dearest that we ever knew. Dear old Collopy's Cross now I leave you behind, With memories of Tom, Tim and Mike there enshrined, And I think of the days when we played pitch and toss, While the Patrickswell Band played at Collopy's Cross. Dedicated to all members of the Collopy family past and present.

"Infinity is now hanging in the most prominent place in our house. Each time we look at it, we have a finer grasp of its depth and beauty. We both look forward to seeing where you take your art (or it takes you) in the future." Mark Boyer
"I just have to start my day by telling you how much I love your painting. I hung it in the living room and it's a knock-out. I love the colors, rhythm and music. It speaks life to me." Agnes Paulsen

Old train locomotives found in Tillamook, Oregon…
Tau Zero was launched two years ago today.
First and foremost I would like to say THANK YOU to everyone who has visited my site. You have made this a great experience for me. When I launched the site I wasn't sure I would like it – now I can't imagine not doing it.
A few facts and figures for the last two years:
I have lived in three states (Washington, Montana, and Texas).
I have had three cameras (Nikon D60, Nikon D7000, and now I use a Nikon D800).
I have taken about 50,000 photographs.
I have driven approximately 50,000 miles on photo roadtrips. (In a straight line that would take me around the earth twice.)
139,561 hits to the website.
Visitors from at least 158 countries.
675 posts.
Where will the road go from here? Let's find out….
I was on the top level of a parking garage trying to get some pictures of rain clouds that were rolling in. Everything seemed to be fine until I shot a few photos of one of the security cameras. That was when security arrived, told me I was not allowed to take pictures of the security cameras, and I was invited to leave the property immediately. I understand the need for security cameras but this just makes me a bit sad. Guess I need to be more careful when I am shooting in the city.

I would like implement a sort of choice using only Html and Css. I need to obtain a field where my user makes a choise and the latter leads to different forms. Precisely if my user decides to change his password will appear two input fields, or if he decides to change his information about his place of residence will appear four input field. Is possible this by using only Html and Css?

Sounds like you need to use a javascript library to do this bud. Don't think you can trigger this with just html and css. Though i may be wrong.

I have had a great experience with CubeSmart. They have been kind and helpful since the day I started renting from them. The place is always clean and the staff is kind. I would recommend CubeSmart to my friends and family for sure! I have no complaints about them at all! It is a good place to store your items when in between places to live or if you just have way to many things and not enough room or storage at your place. I just don't have anything bad to say about this place at all. I have never encountered anyone who works there that isnt nice and respectful. Just all around good place to store your things for either a long time or just a short time while you get into your own place.

- Even industrial metals, one of this year's best performers in commodities, have started to come under pressure; nickel has dropped 10% since the end of June, copper prices are at three-month lows, and iron ore trades below $80/ton for the first time since 2009.

- U.S. government forecasters predict a more than 65% chance for an El Niño weather phenomenon by the end of the year, a development that threatens to drive up prices for food and other staples.
- El Niño has a reputation for triggering sharp run-ups for prices in markets as diverse as nickel, coffee and soybeans, and commodities investors, traders and analysts are bracing for impact at a time when global supplies of many raw materials already are stretched.
- Global food prices - which at the start of 2014 were expected to be largely flat this year - could easily climb 15% to record highs in as a little as three months after an El Niño occurs, says World Bank economist James Baffes.
- But Société Générale analysts say it is miners, not farmers, who have the most to worry about; since 1991, nickel prices rose the most (13.9%) during El Niño years among commodities the bank tracks.

Jan. 10, 2014, 5:08 AM
- The U.S. Department of Agriculture is expected to lift its estimate today for the 2013 corn harvest (CORN) to 14.05B bushels from a prediction in December of 13.99B bushels.
- That would make last year's output the largest in U.S. history, surpassing the crop of 13.1B bushels in 2009.
- If confirmed, the estimates are likely to add pressure to corn prices, which hit a 3 1/2 year low of $4.08 a bushel yesterday before closing at $4.12. That was still down 1.2%, with the decline also due to falling exports. Corn has dropped 2.4% this year after plummeting 40% in 2013.
- Wheat prices suffered as well yesterday from poor overseas sales, hitting a two-year low of $5.785 a bushel before recovering a bit to close -0.8% at $5.8425.

The 2007 release of Microsoft Office was a milestone and not just because
it had evolved from a suite of personal productivity products into a
comprehensive, multifaceted and integrated system. For the first time it
embraced open XML standards replacing the proprietary formats of previous
XML made it apparent to a growing number of organisations that their
information systems could interoperate and collaborate to support new business
processes in ways never before possible.
For Mitrais, the introduction of open standards was to be the catalyst for
the escalation in demand for the add-in programming services it had introduced
in 2003.
Add-in programming describes services, based on Microsoft Office, which use
the tools, applications and technologies of Office to deliver functions not
provided by Microsoft. Typically these functions are customised to the needs of
a particular client.
Since 2003 Mitrais has developed a diverse range of applications based on the
use of add-in programming services.
One of the first of these was an automatic document generation system for
business documents and emails. Based on predefined Microsoft Office templates
and using Visual Studio Tools for Office (VSTO), it supports an investment
administration system for an Australian financial planning group.
VSTO is also the technology underpinning an electronic document management
system (EDMS) developed by Mitrais which enables a prominent US company to
watermark and distribute documents in a diverse range of formats including
Microsoft Word and Excel. The electronic watermark, like its physical namesake,
provides a guarantee of authenticity.
The watermarking engine enables the EDMS to automatically embed a watermark
image and text related to terms of use in any document retrieved by the user.
The engine is configurable to have different watermark images or text imbedded
from different locations and also to enable it to be turned on or off.
A similar automated document generation system, which can output Word and
Excel documents, has also been developed for a prominent risk management advisor
and insurance broker.
Stepping beyond the commercial arena a recent project required Mitrais to
develop a Microsoft Word 2007 add-in for academic institutions to mark student
exams and assessments. The application, also using VSTO technology, enables
academics to annotate, comment, stamp and grading exams.
Mitrais provides add-in programming services in Australia, Indonesia and the
With accreditation from Microsoft as a Partner with a Gold Software Development competency, Mitrais enjoys full support and training in the skills required to provide add-in programming services.
The Mitrais senior management team comprises a careful balance of skills and capabilities to optimize production, support and the strategic direction of the company.

Mitrais regards the support of education and community organizations as essential to its growth and social participation.

Spaniard breaks Great Wall Marathon record
Updated: May 19, 2007, 3:06 PM ETAssociated Press
KUAIHUOLIN, China -- Running the Great Wall Marathon wasn't so tough after all.
At least not for Salvador Calvo, who trains relentlessly over the mountains near his home in northern Spain.
"For me, the hardest part was running the flat ground here, running on asphalt," said Calvo, who set a course record Saturday of 3 hours, 23 minutes, 10 seconds. "The wall was easy for me because it's the kind of training I do at home."
Calvo's time was sensational, coming in one of the world's ...

Appointed to the panel were Ike Wolgin, son of former Sagamore developer Norman Wolgin; philanthropist, adventurer and entrepreneur J. Buckley Bryan; Bolton Planning Board member Sue Wilson; town resident Ron Conover; and retired businessman Craig Hannon.
Ideas discussed to date for spending the windfall include offsetting the expenses of the town water district, Simmes said.
Ever since the water filtration plant was built in the mid-1990s for about $2 million, the 800 Bolton households in the water district are paying an "exorbitant" amount for water service, she said.
While the Sagamore was gearing up this week, business owners around town were sprucing up, expanding and getting ready for summer, she said.
The owner of the kayak shop on Main St. is expanding his building into three storefronts and developing apartments upstairs, she said. Plus, Cate's Italian Garden restaurant is expanding to accommodate a pizza shop.
"There are signs of life everywhere as people are opening up their businesses and cleaning up their properties," she said. "Also there's now a lot of traffic through town."

It's the eyes, right?
Trying to narrow down exactly why Zooey Deschanel so captures the hearts and minds and loins of so many dudes, so much so that even yours truly snuck into an OB/GYN doctor's office just to snatch a copy of this month's Marie Claire magazine to share with the lot of you the lust of Zooey Deschanel.
No, she'll never take her clothes off, but I guarantee you will be doing that with your mind within moments of spying these photos. Enjoy.

The Ministry of Education will not pursue legal action over
Arrowtown School's ''leaky'' buildings.
Earlier this month the Otago Daily Times revealed
millions of dollars would be spent fixing weathertightness
issues in seven of the school's nine blocks.
Almost two weeks ago the ministry said it was considering
whether to take legal action and named Rilean Construction as
the company that built most of the school.
Now, the ministry's head of education infrastructure service
Kim Shannon said it had decided not to take action.
In an emailed statement she said: ''This is because most of
the buildings affected are more than 10 years old, so the
time limit available to follow up any issues has expired.
''Damage in the one building completed within the last 10
years is so small that it would not be worth the time and
expense of pursuing a legal case.''
Rilean shareholder-director Steve McLean said the company was
confident no action would be taken.
''We constructed the school to the architect's specifications
and best building practices at the time.''

Recent US runway incursion incidents include:
6 May 2007, Los Angeles International airport: a Virgin Atlantic Airbus A340-600 carrying 172 passengers and crew and a SkyWest Airlines Embraer Brasilia with two pilots and no passengers came within 15m (50ft) laterally of colliding.
23 July 2006, Chicago O'Hare airport: the Atlas freighter crossed runway 27L after landing on 14R, but a United Airlines Boeing 737 had been cleared for take-off on 27L. The US Federal Aviation Administration says the 737 was able to take off, but overflew the larger aircraft. The US National Transportation Board estimates the aircraft came within 60-90m.
US Department of Transportation watchdog the Inspector General's Office (IGO) recently reported that runway incursion incident numbers had peaked in 2001, but following a drop in runway incursions in financial year 2002, the number and rate of runway incursions have remained steady, with some particularly dangerous events continuing to occur at four major international airports.
The agency says that in FY2005 and 2006, Boston Logan airport suffered 22 runway incursion incidents (one severe), Chicago O'Hare 15 incidents (five severe), Los Angeles International 16 (two severe) and Philadelphia 16 (one severe). The IGO says that specific local remedial actions are now in place at these airports, but were not adopted until after a serious runway incursion had occurred.
