im considering moving to portland and renting what neighborhoods should i avoid?
Nearly all areas of Portland are safe, especially during the day. The city is filled with many unique neighborhoods, with most of the nicer areas closer to downtown. Northeast Portland is perhaps the least desirable section of the city and many locals avoid crossing above 82nd Street during nightfall. Southwest and Northwest Portland are known for their charm and beauty, but these areas do tend to be on the pricier side. Eastmoreland is also a nice neighborhood, as well as the casual and artsy Inner Southeast vicinity.
What kinds of outdoor activities do people enjoy in Portland?
Not only does Portland have many parks and outdoor recreational areas within city limits, but it also is not very far from such places as the Columbia River, the southern chain of the Cascade Mountains and the Pacific Ocean, all of which are prime locations to enjoy the outdoors. There are at least 4 National Parks within 50 miles, including the Deschutes and Snoqualmie National Forests. Portland residents enjoy golfing, mountain biking, skiing, ice climbing, hiking, fishing and wind surfing at different times of the year. Many people move to Portland because of the plentiful outdoor activities and easy access to the wilderness.

u.s.s. enterprise
deck 1
main bridge
captain kirk in the command seat
If main engineering is the heart of a ship, the bridge is its brain. From here the captain and duty officers can can oversee all major ships's functions, ensuring that missions are carried out with maximum efficiency
As with all Constitution Class starships, the bridge of the Enterprise is located on deck, at the top of the saucer section. From his centre seat on the bridge, the captain can supervise all ship's operations easily and efficiently.
In the 2250's, the bridge of Captain Christopher Pike's Enterprise is equipped with gooseneck viewers at helm and navigation. By the time Captian James T Kirk takes command in 2263, these have been replaced with more streamlined modern display panels which do not extend above the consoles, and the previously round edged main viewscreen has been replaced by a wider, more rectangular modle. Other minor engineering and design changes take plaace between the missions and the two captains, and continue throughout Kirk's tenure as newer, more advanced equipment becomes avaliable. When the Enterprise undergoes a major refit in 2271, the bridge is replaced with an entirely new module.
Lasting Design
In general however the basic bridge layout of central command chairs encircled by other duty stations will remain the same way well into the next century on almost all Starfleet vessels.
communications station
Kirk's bridge during the 2260's is circular and is constructed on two levels. A red handrail seperates the upper from the lower level, and traffic between the two is facilitated by three short staircase. To the right of the red doors to the torbolift, which brings personel onto the upper level of the bridge, is a schematic of the bridge.
The captain's station is a single chair on a slightly raised platform in the center of the bridge. From this location he can issue commands, receive reports, watch the main viewscreen, speak to the crew and personally control and override command functions. Controls are in easy reach on the arms of the chair.
Duty Stations
Just below the captain and forward from his position is a single command module normally manned by two crew members. On the left as seen from the captain's position is the helm console, and on the right is the navigation console. In addition to their primary functions, the helmsman and navigator are also responsible for aiming and firing the ship's weapons. An astrogator is positioned between the seats of these two officers.
science station
The main viewscreen can display output from sensors, visual communications or information from tactical and library computers. Function lights move from left to right across the bottom of the screen.
Around the edge of the upper or outer level of the bridge are stations that control major ship's functions, provide necessary data and in some cases duplicate functions that are normally handled in other parts of the ship
Starting at the main viewscreen and moving clockwise, the stations are; defense subspace monitor, defense and weapons station, navigation station, science station, communications station. then comes the turbolift door, then the engineering station, environmental station, and engineering subspace monitor.

The SNP's Carolle Ralph stepped down in December after spending six months representing Lossiemouth's Heldon and Laich ward, following what had been described as a "vicious, bullying and personal campaign of intimidation".
Ms Ralph had been one of two SNP candidates in the ward, which includes Lossiemouth. While she was elected, the other SNP candidate, David Stewart, was the most surprising casualty in Moray.
Mr Stewart resigned from the party, but there is no suggestion he was responsible for smearing Ms Ralph. It has now emerged police have questioned his wife Joan Stewart.
Police confirmed their inquiries into the sending of a series of letters had concluded and report was being prepared for the procurator-fiscal.

WEBSITE OF THE DAY: Price of a Stamp
Too much information. That's the trouble these days, isn't it? We're expected to absorb and retain more information now than ever before. So it's not all that surprising that some bits fall by the wayside, no matter how simple they should be to remember, or how useful they are.
These are often bits of information that, once a upon a time, we could all recall without having to rely on technology to help us.
Here are some examples of questions that we should all probably know the answers to, but often don't:
How much is an NHS prescription?
What's your parents' phone number?
What does a Zone 1 single cost on the Tube these days?
Who or what is a Conor Maynard?
See? Not that easy to just roll the answers of the top of your head is it?
Here's another one: how much is a first class postage stamp?
Ha! Got you again! Best bookmark this then: priceofastamp.co.uk, because that's all this site will tell you. And we reckon that, without looking, quite a few people won't know.
Daft, we know, but still pretty useful.
And no, we don't have a clue about the Conor Maynard one either…

34 years old.
The guy who hired me in St. Louis said part of the deal was buying a bike along with him. Laughs all around, kidding, right?
Two months later he says "this is the day."
He's my boss, gotta play nice. Go down to the Honda dealership. He buys a little 250 Ninja or some such shit. I buy a V45 (?) Magna. Accelerated faster than anything I've owned since. Fun. He rode mine back, I learned the basics in a parking lot. Froze leaving a traffic light soon after getting it, wouldn't lean into a turn, slowly scraped into the kerb and toppled over, kinda like the tricycle lady on Laugh In.
Got scared riding on 6-lane interstates, the bike was light and got blown around. Saw a K75 at the bike show a year later, fell in love with the big round headlight, and the bike was a lot heavier and more stable.
Rode that until I got to Atlanta, where the beltway demanded more get up and go. So I got the GS for the extra ponies, the handling, the looks and the do-all ability.
I actually had a bike for about a week in college, a 2-stroke. I knew nothing about bikes, including the need for oil in the gas. Had it transported it back to my place. Rode it maybe twice. It was a Yamaha of some kind. When I wrenched on the gas, it about threw me off and pulled my arms out of their sockets. Scared the shit out of me. I ruined that bike. Didn't know diddly about oil/gas, seized it up. But not before it threw me in the middle of downtown traffic.
It has been said that man is a rational animal. All my life I have been searching for evidence which could support this.

And some still think I'm crazy
I had always wanted a dirt bike when I was a kid. But was never able to get one. Both of my brothers road street for years. I just never really got that interrested untill I saw some of the dual sport bikes. So in 2000 at age 33 I decided to get a bike. Got permit went to the dealer took test ride which was my first time ever on anything with two wheels and a engine. DRZ400s got loaded it the back of my nephews truck and home we went. Two days and 52 miles later,First crash went wide on a small curve hit ditch over the bars and broke my left knee .
Fastforward May 13 2005 friday, Dog ran out in front of me and gets stuck in the front wheel locking it,resulting me highsiding with the bike following. Brake levers and handle bar end do bad things to human flesh.

I started riding two years ago...at age 42. After being diagnosed with borderline / pre diabetes I realized I probably wasn't going to live forever as previously planned. I had always wanted to ride so I thought I'd better get started. My only riding experience was on a 50 or 90cc minibike and a small dirtbike as a pre-teen, and on a rented scooter on a Greek Island in the 80's.
My first bike was a Honda Shadow VLX600 cruiser. Since then I've had a Buell XB9SL, a Ducati Monster 800, and a BMW F650GS. I currently have a Buell XB9SX, a Harley Dyna Superglide, and a BMW Dakar. I use my late start as an excuse / rationalization for having had so many bikes in a short time frame...
Then the wife started riding.... it's been a revolving door of bikes around here while we have been trying to sort out our preferences. We both feel time is defintely NOT on our side. I wish I had started sooner, but I'm glad I didn't start in my teens or 20's. I've never been a reckless person, but wisdom does occasionally accompany age.....
It's not much of a tail, but I'm sort of attached to it.

I started riding in early 2000 when I was 33. When I stopped cycling everywhere several years previously I had ruled out a motorbike because you could never account for all the other idiots, but when I moved south (in the UK) it eventually dawned on me that all those other idiots - myself included - were permanently stuck in traffic jams. My principle reason for not biking thus evaporated, and after a friend in Birmingham said how much fun he'd had on a scooter was all set to follow in his tyretracks. Mentioned this to my Dad, who said that a bike was better than a scoot because the larger wheels make them more stable. I'd already decided a decent size scoot would have required a full bike licence anyway, so thought what the heck and went all the way up to a motorbike.
This decision did worry my Mum, but this worry was averted on two counts - firstly that I said I would get all the training I could (and in fact have now passed my Advanced Riding test), and secondly because it turns out she used to ride everywhere as well and also has a full bike licence, much to my surprise. She even said she'd been riding several months into her pregnancy with me! So maybe riding reminds me of the womb, or something daft like that.
2. What was your first bike?
What happened to 1? Anyway, my first bike was a dual purpose 125 (can't remember the make;Honda or Yamaha) so I could practice riding off-road. By the time I found out that this was in fact just as illegal as riding on-road I'd done over 100 miles and was well and truly ready for my CBT*, then after getting through that I could ride the bike on the road.
For my bike test* in Nov-2000 I got a Honda CB750 which I practiced riding in car parks; passed the test on the 3rd attempt and got a full Category A licence as opposed to the silly A1 restricted you get if you only pass on a bike that outputs less than 46bhp (the 125 was 11bhp. Wow, I still remember getting on it the first few times thinking "this is way too powerful...")
(* Getting a bike licence in the UK is complicated business.)
3. How do you feel about starting so late?
It's probably just as well; I've had several accidents in the cars I've had over the years, and if those had been on a bike I'd have been in much worse shape than I am now, and as a result I'm much more tolerant of other drivers' errors. But I guess you mean "do you wish you'd started sooner", to which the answer would be "Don't know; everything considered, probably not." Riding is definitely the best fun I've had with my clothes on.
4. What bikes have you progressed to / thru?
Traded in the 125 and the 750 about a year after my test for a Fazer 600. Traded that in in March for my current bike, a BMW R1200GS. The 125 and 750 were both second hand, and the Fazer and Beemer were both new.

BMW R1150RT. Yup, I started right off on the big toys. Dropped it making a u-ttrn into the garage within the first hour of owning it. STALL... BANG! Back to the dealer to get head guards installed with my first service.
To answer the first question last, Mom still ain't happy her firstborn is riding around on a "deathsicle" but since Dad's had several and my next little brother has two bikes, she can't complain too much. She does make it a point to make sure I know she don't like the idea that her family is riding motorcycles pretty much every time we talk on the phone.
I was sitting in traffic, age 35, in my F150, driving somewhere around rush hour. Sitting on the 5 southbound, idling, when a few bikes passed me splitting lanes. Hmmm. A little later another few bikes passed me. Hmmmm. That looks like a GREAT IDEA! I think I'll get one! After all, I've wanted a bike all my life.
Decided I wanted a sport tourer 'cause I wanted bags to haul paperwork around. First choice: Aprilia Futura 'cause I love the looks. Second choice: BMW. Third choice: VFR. The Aprilia dealer wouldn't/couldn't get financing, so off the the BMW dealer I went. They floated an app. Salesguy and I sat around twiddling thumbs waiting for the computer to spit back an answer. I was fully expecting to have the salesguy look at me and say "sorry Mr. Shaw, but we can't finance you." When he raised his eyebrows and said "you're approved" you coulda knocked me over with a feather. Oh shit! This means I GOTTA BUY the thing! HOLY SHIT! WTF now?!
Since I didn't have a license, they wouldn't let me ride off with it so I had them deliver it to the office. Once there, I hopped on and took off. Took 30 days or so to get the permit, and another few months to get an appointment to take the test. Found out that riding a bike in traffic is a lot like racing bicycles, but the consequences of messing up are a lot bigger! I'm still not sure where exactly the limits of traction are on the bike and don't really wanna find out ala Steve and Jabba.
That was 24k mi ago on the RT and another 1000-ish on the ADV. Next: Ducati 916-996-998!

Started after 30?
1. "WTF were you thinking?" - I always wanted a bike, but we were poor. Got married, still poor. At 30 I decided to go to college. Went to bank and got a student loan of $600. Went to a M/C dealer and bought a bike.
2. What was your first bike? - New 1969 Kawasaki 175 enduro.
3. How do you feel about starting so late? - I cuss my old man everyday for being born poor. I missed out on at least 15 years of fun.
4. What bikes have you progressed to / thru? - Have had a series of dirt and dual sport bikes, currently riding a 1997 DR650 (can't wear the SOB out). Never had a street bike, that pavement scares the shit out me.
I have been riding for 36 years, but it could have been more than 50 years.

This is for anyone who started riding after age 30.
I'll phrase the first question in my Mom's exact words, "WTF were you thinking?" (5 years later her opinion hasn't changed). My mom said that she never expected one of her kids to ride a motorcycle. She did ask "are you riding a HARLEY????"
2. What was your first bike? 2002 1150GS, bought 8/28/2004, after passing MSF mid-July 2004.

Bought/rode a bike for the first time three months before my 30th birthday - I'm 32 now.
1st bike = 1995 KTM RXC 620 (bigheavytallleftkick... great bike).
This was my first ride:
Sold that to get the 640 Adventure.
Wrecked that ... & just got a 950 Adventure.
Plus a Gas Gas 280 Trials & a YZ 426 for good measure...

Wo are us older riders, wishing we had discovered the pleasures of motorcycles earlier in life. But, we get here when we do!. I started four years ago at age 57, with the support of friends who ride. Took the MSF course, purchased a used R1150Gs, and started riding. Living in the mountains gave me great roads to learn to ride on. I took Reg Pridmore's CLASS course and last summer took the Ridin safe class from Leon Grodsky. I've logged about 30K, and am hoping to get more time to ride in the next few years. I'm looking at the new R1200RT's, and may purchase one, keeping my GS, so my son in law can ride with me.

Ah, yes... I remember it like it was just last month. Oh, wait it was! My mom was a little nervous. I had completed the MSF course with a buddy and was hemming and hawwwing about the bike. My wife, she got tired of me talking about it. She got me my KLR as a surprise for my 36th birthday. Thanks again Data-spouse!!!
Been riding and racing bikes for a number of years. Always loved adventuring on the bike, the motorcycle is great too -- you get to see more places...
My first rider report
Like everyone else, I wished I had started earlier. Having said that, I am glad that I started at this age... I am able to do it right -- MSF course, ATGATT, etc. I have gotten the need for speed out of my system --well, most of it.
Riding is just soooo damn cool...its hard to explain to others why I go "riding around" for a couple of hours after work and during my luch hour.... I am habing enough fun that my wife is actually getting interested in riding. Guess its the dumb-ass grin when I get home...

Locally based Pan Asia Symphony Orchestra will join rising violinist Janice Lui to perform in "Music Around the World" concerts next month.
Under the baton of the orchestra's music director Dr Yip Wai-hong and guest conductor Ho Chi-chung, Lui will join the orchestra to play Kabalevsky's "Violin Concerto in C". The orchestra will also play Mozart's overture to "The Marriage of Figaro", Beethoven's overture to "Coriolan", Dvorak's "Legendy (Legends) No. 7 in A", Rossini's overture to "L'Italiana in Algeri", Barber's "Adagio for Strings", Honegger's "Pastorale d'ete", Bartok's "Romanian Folk Dances" and Yip Wai-hong's "Prelude and Fugue in Chinese Style".
A native of Hong Kong, Ho Chi-Chung earned his reputation when he was pursuing his graduate degrees in the United States. He was appointed the music director of the Mason Symphony Orchestra, the University of Michigan Gilbert and Sullivan Society (opera), the Theatre of Michigan States University (musical), among other conducting positions. He has collaborated with the Baltimore Symphony, the Baltimore Opera, the Peabody Conservatory Opera, and the Christian Oratorio Society.
Ho has been invited to conduct in Asia and Eastern Europe. In addition to his work as a conductor, he also devotes himself to music education, composition, and instrumental performance.
Born in 1997, Janice Lui started violin lessons at the age of six and has obtained the Violin Associate Diploma (ATCL) of Trinity College, London, and the Diploma in Violin Performance (Dip. ABRSM) of the Royal School of Music with distinctions. She was the winner of the violin solo in the Hong Kong Schools Music Festival consecutively from 2004 to 2009.
The Pan Asia Symphony Orchestra is a highly organised orchestra that aims to promote music among the public, especially the younger generation, in Hong Kong. The orchestra has performed frequently with internationally famous conductors and soloists in Hong Kong over the past 30 years. By using the idiom of popular music and organising concert talks, the orchestra has successfully introduced serious music and Chinese orchestral music to the public, and at the same time, raised popular awareness of indigenous culture.

1. We believe that the universe, the world, and the human race came into existence in the beginning when God created heaven and earth and all creatures (Genesis 1,2). Further testimony to this event is found in other passages of the Old and New Testaments (for example, Exodus 20:11; Hebrews 11:3). The creation happened in the course of six consecutive days of normal length by the power of God's almighty word.
2. We believe that the Bible presents a true, factual, and historical account of creation.
3. We believe that God created Adam and Eve in his own image (Genesis 1:26,27), that is, holy and righteous. Their thoughts, desires, and will were in full harmony with God (Colossians 3:10; Ephesians 4:24). They were furthermore given the capacity to "subdue" God's creation (Genesis 1:28) and the responsibility to care for it (Genesis 2:15).
4. We believe that God created a multitude of good angels. Sometime after creation, a number of these angels rebelled against God under the leadership of one of their own who is called Satan or the devil (2 Peter 2:4). Ever since, these evil angels have opposed God and God's people (1 Peter 5:8).
5. We believe that Adam and Eve lost their divine image when they yielded to the temptation of Satan and disobeyed God's command. This brought upon them the judgment of God: "You will surely die" (Genesis 2:17). Since that time all people are conceived and born in a sinful condition (Psalm 51:5) and are inclined only to evil (Genesis 8:21). "Flesh gives birth to flesh" (John 3:6). Since all people are by nature dead in sin and separated from God (Ephesians 2:1), they are unable to reconcile themselves to God by their own efforts and deeds.
6. We believe that God in his gracious providence richly and daily provides for the bodily needs of all people (Psalm 145:15,16). He furthermore protects believers against all danger by keeping evil away from them (Psalm 121:7) or by making it serve their good (Romans 8:28).
7. We reject all theories of evolution as an explanation of the origin of the universe and the human race and all attempts to harmonize the scriptural account of creation with such theories.
8. We reject interpretations that reduce the first chapters of Genesis to a narration of myths or parables or poetic accounts that are not factual history.
9. We reject all theories that blur the distinction between human beings and animals, since only human beings have immortal souls and are accountable to God.
10. We reject all theories that blur the distinction between God and his creation (pantheism).
11. We reject all views that look upon people as basically good by nature; that consider their natural tendencies to be mere weaknesses, which are not sinful; or that fail to recognize their total spiritual depravity and their inability to please God (Romans 3:9-18).
This is what Scripture teaches about creation, mankind, and sin. This we believe, teach, and confess.

A word to the wise
The original message was written by a lady whose brother and his wife learned a hard lesson this past week.
Their house burned down.. ..nothing left but ashes. They have good insurance so the house will be replaced and most of the contents. That is the good news. However, they were sick when they found out the cause of the fire. The insurance investigator sifted through the ashes for several hours. He had the cause of the fire traced to the master bathroom. He asked her sister-in-law what she had plugged in the bathroom. She listed the normal things....curling iron, blow dryer. He kept saying to her, "No, this would be something that would disintegrate at high temperatures". Then her sister-in-law remembered she had a Glade Plug-In, in the bathroom. The investigator had one of those "Aha" moments. He said that was the cause of the fire. He said he has seen more house fires started with the plug-in type room fresheners than anything else. He said the plastic they are made from is THIN plastic. He also said that in every case there was nothing left to prove that it even existed. When the investigator looked in the wall plug, the two prongs left from the plug-in were still in there. Her sister-in-law had one of the plug-ins that had a small night light built in it. She said she had noticed that the light would dim and then finally go out. She would walk in to the bathroom a few hours later, and the light would be back on again. The investigator said that the unit was getting too hot, and would dim and go out rather than just blow the light bulb. Once it cooled down it would come back on.
That is a warning sign . The investigator said he personally wouldn't have any type of plug in fragrance device anywhere in his house. He has seen too many places that have been burned down due to them.

Australian Pizza Oven now finished!
Hi all, I've been lurking on here for some time but not said much (not had much to say but LOADS to read!)
I've finally got my oven complete thanks to my bricklayer mate who took on the project with gusto and added some of his own ideas to the ideas I had come up with from doing research on here for some months.
I'm pleased to say that it's a great success and holds the heat really nicely after initially going off the scale according to my infrared heat gun which goes up to 1000 deg f.
I didn't panic when I first noticed small cracks and knew exactly what to expect thanks to all the excellent advice on here!
So I guess that's what I'm writing this thread for, not only to show you the photos but to say a hearty "THANK YOU'' to all of you who continually post your experiences on here, it is very much appreciated!
I have placed all the progress pictures for the project on the website I made for him (that's what I do for a living)
For those interested in seeing them, they are here...
Wood Fired Pizza Ovens Central Coast
Re: Australian Pizza Oven now finished!
Well, at you are underway.
It's a pity that you didn't put in a better chimney void to prevent the smoke staining your facia arched bricks. Anyway, it's now time to enjoy it!
Re: Australian Pizza Oven now finished!
There is no way a bricklayer built that....!!!!!??????
Im a been a brickie for 30+ years and would be ashamed to say that I built that.. :(
Re: Australian Pizza Oven now finished!
I bet it uses a mountain of wood and takes forever to heat up.

Kristin Cavallari Introduces World to Six-Week-Old Son Camden
Get ready to welcome another Camden into the world!
Kristin Cavallari and her fiance, quarterback Jay Cutler, welcomed Camden Jack six weeks ago — and today People has an adorable portrait of the new mother and son.
The Hills star tells the magazine that Camden's birth was the culmination of a stress-free pregnancy. "I was lucky," she says.
Meeting her child for the first time was "the most incredible moment" in Kristen's 25-year life. "I've realized what really matters. We're a family."
And the new mother sounds like a new mother with the usual blend of enthusiasm and nervousness. "I like having this life that I'm responsible for," she says. "It's exciting and so rewarding [...] it's also a little scary!"
Maybe the Kristin, Jay, and the Lacheys can get their sons together for a Camden-Camden playdate.

The Front Row: Celebs onstage
Our theater panel weighs merits of casting big names in plays
Elise Kim Prosser
San Diego Asian American Repertory Theatre board member, actor, playwright ("Hip-Hop Kim-Bop") and marketing professor/consultant.
"'Glee' also utilizes stunt casting to varying success. It's called a 'Nielsen ratings sugar rush.' If the celebrity has the requisite musical talent and fits the storyline, it works. Otherwise, it's distracting to me."
Alex Sandie
Founding and current president of the San Diego Shakespeare Society; also a seasoned Shakespearean actor.
"This is nothing new to theater — it has been done for years. For example, Natalie Woods' voice was dubbed singing in the film 'West Side Story,' to name one of many. Star power has always been a box office draw!"
Rick Simas
Co-director of the MFA program in musical theater at SDSU (the only graduate program of its kind in the country). Also a busy director of musicals at SDSU and professional theaters.
"The current production of 'Chicago' on Broadway (and recently on tour in San Diego starring Christie Brinkley) has employed 'stunt casting' for years. I saw its top-notch original cast in 1996, and then saw the show years later starring Melanie Griffith, who was making her Broadway (and stage) debut as Roxie Hart, a role originated by Gwen Verdon.
"Griffith really couldn't sing; her dancing (and that of her co-star playing Velma) was dumbed down to the point of being embarrassing; and her performance as Roxie was so tiny, it hardly made it past the third row.
"And yet, her six-month run sold out quickly, and the audience surrounding me didn't seem to notice that she was ill-suited to the stage. Even The New York Times proclaimed that although she had 'minimal command of the skills traditionally associated with musical comedy — she dances very little, and her voice has only a casual relationship with melody — Ms. Griffith is a sensational Roxie.'
"It was then that I knew what I'd loved about Broadway musicals since I was a child was pretty much dead. (And that the Times critic is an idiot when it comes to musicals.)

News From 91.3 KUWS
The fight against the ice is over and shipping is back to normal
After fighting the thickest and largest ice cover on the Great Lakes in decades and losing, cargo totals finally returned to normal last month. Mike Simonson reports.
The season was supposed to open March 25, but it took two more weeks before ships could even get going. And then they needed Coast Guard escorts to get through, especially on Lake Superior. And even then, several ships were damaged and laid-up by the ice.
Guthrie-Hubner shipping agent Chuck Hilleran says it was tough any way you slice it.
"A lot of guys in retrospect and some of the shipping companies, they didn't put anything out there until the middle of April or whatever before they started running a few ships so some of them charged out onto the ice and it cost them."
Cargo numbers in the St. Lawrence Seaway from ocean-going ships is down 22% this year.
The biggest cargo…iron ore…is down 26% from a year ago on U.S.-flagged vessels. Lake Carriers Association Vice-President Glen Nekvasil says the Coast Guard escorts finally ended May 2.
"And as a result, we moved about 6.4 million tons of iron ore, which was basically a repeat of a year ago. But in a very, very real sense the ice still took a toll on us in May because three of the 1000 footers had to go to the shipyard combined for a total of 65 days to repair damage that they suffered in the ice."
Nekvasil says that cost 600,000 tons of iron ore that could have been delivered to steel mills in the lower Great Lakes. He says that'll be tough to make up.
"Obviously having the higher water levels will help a bit but we are facing a real challenge. There's no denying that."
Higher water levels in the Great Lakes this year means vessels can carry more cargo in their holds.

'Rock My RV With Bret Michaels' take the show on the roadAdd to Favorites | Rock My RV With Bret Michaels
Poison frontman Bret Michaels says he's logged over three million miles in a host of rolling homes -- from the cozy Winnebagos of his Butler, Pa., youth to the most luxurious Prevost tour buses of his days as a rock star. In fact, the open-road lifestyle is so much a part of Michaels' DNA that if you hope to get an offstage glimpse at him when he tours your town, don't look in the lobbies of luxury inns.
"When all my other band mates stay at hotels on our days off, I actually stay [on the bus] at the big amphitheaters or arenas, or I go out to the state parks or other places and have an absolutely great time -- and then I come in for the shows," Michaels, star of the Travel Channel series "Rock My RV With Bret Michaels," premiering Sunday, May 26, tells Zap2it. The 16-episode series features a hands-on Michaels and his crack team of vehicle rehabbers transforming rundown RVs for a variety of owners who consider them an equally vital -- and frequently poignant -- part of their lives.
"The reveal we do is like no other," he says. "It's explosive. There's pyro. We do this big Kabuki drop, and their faces when they see it is pretty awesome."
Michaels says that he and his cohorts looked to international vehicles as inspiration for some their more dazzling upgrades.
"Here in the United States, they've never been done before -- and it's still legal!" he says. "We found a way to make it work and make it safe."
Making it work is the mantra for the self-proclaimed "drealist" -- that's part dreamer, part realist -- who is proud that the products and projects in which he's invested are accessible to everyone.
"I am a 'sweat the details' guy, but my dream was to be creative and turn it into something," Michaels says. "In my life, there is blood on every dollar. But the harder I work, the luckier I get!"

Deceptive marketing,
|reviewer: Sue from St Paul, Minnesota
|I have seen great classical Chinese performances by other companies. I expected the same superb quality from Shen Yun, especially for the exorbitant price. Sadly, although I appreciated the instrumentalists and the costumes, most of the dances were unimpressive. The compulsory Falun Dafa propaganda spoiled the show. I have a bad feeling about who is profiting from the ticket sales.

clustering on microarray dataset
Hello all,
I am quite new in this field and thinking to do small project on clustering on microarray dataset to get better understanding. I don't understand how to start. I found a dataset on this website: samsi.info/200304/dmml/web-internal/bio/data.html
Could any one tell me the sequential steps for doing clustering and which software tools I should use. I am thinking of pcluster method suggested in dataming, but any other method would also be fine.
Re: clustering on microarray dataset
the most common clustering method is by K-means and hierchiarchal.

INDIANAPOLIS — Get those brackets ready, Hoosier faithful – but not for the NCAA tournament.
Indiana needed four wins at the Big Ten Tournament to ensure admission into college basketball's end-of-year showcase, but the Hoosiers' tourney run stalled out before it could even get started with a 64-54 defeat to Illinois in the first round of the Big Ten's postseason competition Thursday afternoon.
Doomed by 35-percent shooting, 16 turnovers and the inability to generate defensive stops late, the Hoosiers (17-15) are likely headed to the NIT or another postseason tournament of far less significance than the Big Dance.
"Bottom line is we can play better. We have to – you have to match the toughness and the competitive spirit every time that you play. And we've just got to quit making defensive mistakes in coverages and giving them live ball turnovers," said IU coach Tom Crean, whose team lost for the third straight game and for the seventh time in its past 10 contests. "Really what I want to do is try to find a different way to say that message because I've given it a few times. And that's the biggest thing."

The Namami Ganga initiative must build on what has been achieved. And go beyond involving organisations of the ruling dispensation's extended ideological brotherhood.
The finance minister announced the high-profile "Namami Ganga" project in his recent budget speech with an allocation of Rs 2,037 crore, but no other details. But what is really new about it, and is the hype justified? Rajiv Gandhi, in his very first address to the nation as prime minister on January 6, 1985, announced a major programme to clean the Ganga. In February 2009, Manmohan Singh declared the Ganga our national river and announced the establishment of the National Ganga River Basin Authority (NGRBA) under his chairmanship, comprising the chief ministers of Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand and West Bengal and well-known activists and professionals. The NGRBA is supported by similar authorities in the basin states, chaired by the respective chief ministers.
The NGRBA was created after a detailed evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of earlier Ganga action plans (GAP), on which some Rs 900 crore has been spent. They were successful in preventing further deterioration in water quality and, in fact, in improving it in some places, despite ever increasing population and other pressures. The GAPs ensured that dissolved oxygen was largely within acceptable limits. But variation in biochemical oxygen demand values was much higher as compared to dissolved oxygen and faecal coliform counts frequently exceeded stipulated limits, particularly at Kannauj, Kanpur, Allahabad and Varanasi.
Between February 2009 and March 2014, the NGRBA implemented Mission Clean Ganga, whose main objective was to ensure that by 2020, no untreated municipal sewage or industrial effluents would be let into the river. The mission had two anchors — nirmal dhara (clean flow) and aviral dhara (minimum continuous flow). To fulfil both goals, the NGRBA took five far-reaching decisions. First, it sanctioned 81 projects worth Rs 6,400 crore for sewage control and treatment in Uttar Pradesh (Rs 2,700 crore), Bihar (Rs 1,400 crore), West Bengal (Rs 1,200 crore), Uttarakhand (Rs 250 crore) and Jharkhand (Rs 100 crore). This was to create a sewer network of over 3,600 km and a sewage treatment capacity of over 700 million litres per day. A special Rs 500 crore project had been sanctioned for Varanasi alone. Second, it got a consortium of IITs led by IIT-Kanpur to prepare a comprehensive Ganga River Basin Management Plan along with enabling legislation to give effect to the provisions of the plan. Third, it declared the Gangetic Dolphin as the national aquatic animal to make it the symbol of the restoration of the cleanliness of the river. Fourth, notices were issued by the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) …continued »
