They feel bad, so they found you these other deals to make up for it.

Adorn Body ArtRead MoreSimilar to Superman and a telephone booth, people walk into Adorn Body Art with one appearance, and walk out with another. Instead of a cape, they exit brandishing new piercings, customized tattoos, and other creative body modifications. But unlike the man of steel, the customers here need some help with their quick change––and that's where the Adorn staff steps in. The studio's body piercers average more than a decade of experience apiece, and its tattoo artists cover a wide range of styles, from traditional to realistic to delicate. And, to ensure a perfect design each time, these ink gurus compliment their own ideas with hundreds of reference books, each of which was kicked out of the city library for rebelling against the Dewey Decimal System.9217 Southwest Beaverton-Hillsdale HighwayPortland, OR US
Aardvark Tattoo CompanyRead MoreLike a fingerprint, a snowflake, or a social security number, every piece of body art created by Aardvark Tattoo Company's tattoo artists is unique. Unlike those at other tattoo shops who work from preset designs, co-owners Risa Stevens and Paul Thomas lead a team of artists who create custom designs based on clients' input. Each artist specializes in a different style, such as portraits, photorealism, art nouveau, feminine tattoos, and proper spellings of extremely long words. Meanwhile, the shop's piercing specialist safely and precisely helps clients add jewelry to any part of the body.14804 SE Powell Blvd.Portland, OR US
Black Hole Body PiercingRead MoreBlack Hole makes body decorating safe and accessible with two locations, rigorous cleanliness standards, and a licensed staff of tattoo artists and piercers. Those going the piercing route can adorn the head or body with a glint of jewelry, ranging from standard surgical stainless-steel barbells to more-ornate navel rings and conflict-free diamond nostril screws. Black Hole offers ear and facial piercings, including lip, nostril, and labret ($25?$35); body piercings, such as nipple ($25 for one) and surface anchors ($50); genital piercings ($70 on average); and more. Basic starter jewelry starts at $12 and goes up depending on function and style. For inspiration, watch Hellraiser or browse through the gallery of piercing pics, then check out the piercing requirements here.2946 NE Glisan StPortland, OR US
Midas Nail SpaRead MoreRelaxation requires peace of mind as well as physical comfort, and the technicians at Midas Nail Spa know how to achieve both. To ease client's worries during pedicures, they sterilize every tool that touches their toes—and sanitize the warm water in which they soak. Likewise, the more porous tools, such as files and pumices stones, are only used once, and clients may take them home afterward to decorate their garden if they wish. A modern ventilation system sucks away the odors of acrylics and gel polishes, and natural soaks and scrubs give off fragrances free of chemicals.1400 NW 23rd AvePortland, OR US
Free Spirit SkincareRead MoreFree Spirit Skincare owner Rene' Halstead started out as a nail technician before earning a master's certification through Creative Nail Design for acrylic application. The multitalented aesthetician and her award-winning team cleanse and nourish faces using Dermalogica products and fragrant essential oils, and transform 'dos with color, cuts, and weaves. Halstead is licensed in cosmetic and body tattooing, specializing in permanent-makeup application, and—having trained at the renowned Gauntlet body-jewelry mecca in San Francisco—is certified to pierce earlobes or navels while seated atop a skirted horse. She stays ahead of industry trends with ongoing education through the International Dermal Institute and the American Institute of Intradermal Cosmetics.307 Ne Kelly AveGresham, OR US
Scapegoat TattooRead MoreScapegoat Tattoo is a Portland, Oregon tattoo parlor featuring professionally trained artists and staff to make beautiful artwork for the canvas of your body. The shop has an hourly rate of one hundred sixty dollars with an eighty dollar minimum, though consultation and setup is included in the rate and will not cost extra. Deposits are required when making a tattoo appointment. Tattoo artists such as Aron Dubois and Ryan Mason will weave such beautiful designs upon your skin, and you'll never want the paintings to end. Scapegoat's artists sometimes travel to conventions as well, so visitors can meet them and see their creative musings. To see the work of each artist without all the traveling, go to Scapegoat's website. Scapegoat Tattoo – beautiful tattoos, beautiful people.1223 SE Stark StPortland, OR US

Rutgers men's basketball coach Mike Rice returned to the court Saturday after a three-game, 16-day suspension for inappropriate behavior and language. Rice held a walk-through session with his team in his first work since he was suspended without pay and fined $50,000 on Dec. 13 for a violation of athletic department policy. ''I may not be perfect, but I know I'm going to change and improve,'' Rice said. ''I brought this on myself. For 21 years, I've asked my players to change and improve. Now I have this opportunity to do that myself. Whether it is the teaching methods, the discipline, I've thought a lot about the way I do things. I'm going to develop the things I need to work on and make this a positive.'' Rutgers (9-2) went 3-0 under associate head coach David Cox, capped by a 68-56 win over Rider on Friday. Rice will be back on the bench Wednesday when Rutgers opens Big East Conference play at No. 9 Syracuse. Rice is in his third season at Rutgers after coming over from Robe...

This essay traces Charismatic preaching and the moral importance of the fake pastor across public spaces and genres in Accra, Ghana. I argue that fear of the fake pastor creates a local theory of moral performance that sets the conditions of possibility for the legitimacy of the pastor as a public figure. Although rapid circulation generates anxiety about spiritual sincerity, it also produces continual hope for the miraculous and the potential for morally legitimate agency. The specter of the fake pastor provides a symbolic nexus for the transformation of spiritual into economic value in privatizing Ghana. This transformation occurs in the language of public moral belonging. A pastor's moral authority relies on public style and performance to connect spiritual power, moral sincerity, and economic potency. Fakery appears as the margin, the horizon against which a moral center is clarified. The fake's centrality to public moral discourse is rooted in the possibilities and dangers of individuated agencies associated with Ghana's liberalization.

As of Tuesday, December 20, 2011

COVINGTON -- After getting beat in the second round of the Class AAAA playoffs last year, Alcovy's girls basketball team got a little bit of revenge, beating GACA Class AAAA No. 1 ranked Stateboro 56-50 to win the three-day Savannah Holiday Classic.
"It felt good, it did, just because of who they were. We're a little bit better team than we were last year. We don't want to play our best ball. We don't want to reach our peak until early March," Alcovy girls head coach Kidada Holtzclaw said.
"In the championship against Statesboro, we were in foul trouble, then Ayanna Wimbush stepped up. DeAndra Sears, a transfer, stepped up. Defense is something we've been harping on."
In the second game of the tournament against Beach, the Lady Tigers beat the home team by six points getting the 62-56 victory in a hostile environment. Making the win against Beach possible was the overall play of Meagan Tucker and Ashley Williams in the post.
Alcovy started the tournament with the 69-50 win over Windsor Forest, who is also from Savannah.
"Being in that area, some of the teams had home-town advantage," said Holtzclaw.
The Lady Tigers, who are ranked No. 5 in Class AAAA, are off to their best start in school history going 9-0. Last year, Alcovy lost its first game 59-57 to Eastside before going on a 10-game win streak.
"We saw a lot of competition that we haven't seen here in the first six or seven games. It was kind of like a playoff atmosphere," said Holtzclaw. "We try to go into every game like we're 0-0. We try not to think about what we've done in the game before because it's not important in the next game."
In the 3-point shoot out before the start of the tournament, Alcovy's Kaci Palo got second place after being tied for third place in the preliminary rounds.
In the boys tournament, after beating Jenkins 76-61, the Alcovy boys were in a hard-fought match up against Savannah before losing it 51-47. The game against Savannah was bitter-sweet for Alcovy head coach Eugene Brown.
"The Savannah game was special because I'm from Savannah. They made a big deal about it coaching against my coach in high school," said Brown. "We had several chances. They were really physical inside and we didn't match well. I don't know if that took us out of it down the stretch but we missed a lot of free throws; we should've won that game. It was actually a one-point game until like 12 seconds left. We missed three throws and ended up losing by four because we were in foul trouble."
In the first game against Jenkins, the Tigers opened up in good fashion with Devon Edwards scoring 23 points followed by Michael Tucker with 16 points and Justin Wallace with 12 points.
Against the GACA Class AAAAA No. 9 ranked Johnson-Savannah, Alcovy took care of business with an 82-64 win.
"All three of those teams are Class AAAAA," said Brown. "We figured that we could compete with anybody. These guys a very resilient. We were down but they came back against a skilled Jenkins group. We all felt pretty good about the outcome of the tournament."

Kelsey and I traveled up to Seattle last weekend for two days of geekery at the first-ever Geek Girl Con!

We were also honored to be on the panel "Media Literacy, Criticism and Production" along with some other really rad women. For this episode of Bitch Radio, here's a good chunk of our panel for you to listen to. Along with me and Kelsey, you'll hear from Kristy Guevara-Flanagan, director of the forthcoming The History of the World as Told by Wonder Woman (we saw clips, it's gonna be amazing!), Anita Sarkeesian, the woman behind Feminist Frequency (you may know her from Mad World and Tropes vs. Women), Leah Wilson, editor of Smart Pop Books, and moderated by Maile Martinez, programming director at Seattle's venerable Reel Grrls!

But most importantly he was an astronomer, cosmologist, physics professor. The fact that he was also a Catholic priest is irrelevant.

Author information
Born in Providence, Rhode Island in 1890, Lovecraft was self-educated and lived in his birthplace all his life, working as a freelance writer, journalist, and ghostwriter. Using many pen names, he contributed his supernatural/horror and science fiction/fantasy stories to various pulp magazines but his reputation as a writer rests mainly on the 60 or so stories he published in Weird Tales starting in 1923. He died in 1937.
Customer reviews
By Gregor Matheson 10 Oct 2010
Like many people I read Lovecraft as a teenager. Like many I stopped reading him in my late teens, feeling too sophisticated for his curious prose style.
However, after reading two authors, Thomas Ligotti and Jorge Luis Borges, I thought it might be worth re-reading Lovecraft. This book shows me that there is a lot I missed as a teenager.
Lovecraft was a voracious reader, and this bonded with his profound imagination. His style at its best has a curious blend of scientific and antiquarian vocabulary which makes it highly fascinating.
This volume contains three of his most memorable stories: the title tale and The Festival and The Haunter in the Dark as well as many other excellent tales. It is true that his style is far from that which literary critics admire, but it is still highly enjoyable (and whether by accident or design often very funny).

Experts' endorsement for Eko Atlantic city
With a target resident of 250,000 and 150,000 commuters, Eko Atlantic City may be an ideal place to live and work. It was conceived to restore land lost to coastal erosion by providing a robust sea wall along newly constructed coastline. Some experts welcome the initiative, but others condemn it, citing erosion and the disappearance of communities along the coast. Yet, other experts warn against criticism of this landmark project,reports OKWY IROEGBU-CHIKEZIE
EKO Model City was conceived by the Lagos State Government as an initiative to reclaim land lost to the sea and provide a conducive place for people to live and work. It is to provide accommodation for about 250,000 on completion. Another 150,000 are expected to commute to the city daily. The city will only host high rise buildings.
The city, modelled after Atlanta in the United States, has a central waterway of 30 metres wide, providing water transport among the three marinas that will be created.
The overall area of the city is 1,037.763 hectares, to be reclaimed from the sea. A significant portion has already been reclaimed. Despite its advantages of surface water drainage, electrical power generation plant and underground distribution, critics argue that it will cause erosion and the disappearance of shorelines.
But a more cautious group has advised on the need to dissociate the disappearance of coastlines in Lagos from the project as it cannot be scientifically proved.
At a one-day roundtable on "Climate change adaptation in Lagos: Eko Atlantic City - Dream for few or nightmare for many?" organised by Heinrich Boll Stiftung, a former resident of Alpha Beach Estate on the Lekki/Ajah Expressway, Mr Azuka Ezeamakam, relived his experience. According to him, he lived in the estate until June, last year, when erosion in the once-serene neighbourhood forced him to relocate after eight years.
He said: "I was forced to leave my once-loving abode because my life and that of my family were no longer safe. I lived there for over eight years and had peace but was displaced from the estate. Sometime in May, last year, coastal erosion swept through the estate. It became a daily occurence. Water from the ocean kept taking over the estate. It happened at the time the first phase of the Eko Atlantic City project was being inaugurated. I left for my safety because the ocean surge was too much."
He said access roads to the estate have vanished; and electricity poles taken away. Ezeamakam said it came to a point that he could not guarantee the safety of members of his household as he feared they would be swept away by the ocean surge while sleeping.
"That was why I moved out. I was afraid that while sleeping, one can be swept away by the angry ocean. The Alpha Beach community lost many lives to the ocean surge; a woman also lost her baby. "
Another participant, Mr Gbenga Okunsanya of the Ocean Surge Committee, Goshen Beach Estate, painted a similar picture of the plight of residents of the estate. He attributed their plight to the ongoing reclamation of land for the highbrow multi-billion dollar Eko Atlantic City.
But a climatologist, Prof Emmanuel Oladipo, countered him. He said it would be wrong to attribute the plight of residents of both estates to the ongoing reclamation of land for city project.
He argued that coastal erosion had started in both estates before the commencement of work at the city. Oladipo, however, agreed that when one area is eroded, another is bound to benefit as sand is deposited in the new area since water must find its level.
Oladipo, who spoke on The imperative for sea level rise risk assessment for the development of Lagos coastline (including the Eko Atlantic Project), flayed the state government for failing to carry the people along on the project before it was embarked upon.
He warned against a reoccurrence of the mistakes made during the development of Victoria Island in the 70s. According to him, Victoria Island was planned to be a highbrow residential area and that it remained so until the late 80s when commercial activities began.
"The luxury people who bought properties in Victoria Island thought they would enjoy," he lamented.
On the Eko Atlantic City, Oladipo, who reiterated that water must always find its level, explained that the quantity of water displaced from the Bar Beach must find another place to percolate.
He reasoned that critics of the project hinged their argument on the cliché: water must find its level.
Oladipo advised that risk assessment to predict sea-level changes in a range of scenarios such as time series, incremental climate change, shear events, storm frequency and intensity, should be undertaken for Eko Atlantic and other federal/state projects along the Lagos coast.
Besides, he urged that the assessment should also monitor the form the changes will take as well as provide an understanding of associated impacts on existing coastal systems, infrastructure and property.
He decried the use of only engineering approaches in determining the construction of Eko Atlantic City, contending that other approaches, such as the biological and socio-institutional, should have also been taken into consideration as several factors come into play in projects of such magnitude and design.
According to him, the best adaptation measures should include a combination of responses known as Integrated Coastal Zone Management, (ICZM).
Oladipo said: "ICZM considers over a long-term the balance of environmental, economic, social, cultural and recreational objectives, within the limits set by natural dynamics. It enables decision makers to choose between the range of options available when responding to sea-level rise, and how to prevent piece-meal reactions that compound the problem."
Also speaking on Coastal cities under climate change impacts at the roundtable, a don and an environmentalist, Mr Ako Amadi, said beach nourishment and barrier walls are temporary measures. He called for afforestation and reaforestation, decrying what he described as a cosmetic approach to tree planting in many states.
Amadi, from the University of Maiduguri, called for a moratorium on developments on shorelines. He insisted that they have negative effects on local communities and waterfront dwellers in the long run.
A cross section of participants criticised the practice of producing Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) of local projects that have direct consequences on the lives of the people overseas and the secrecy that surround such documents.
They unanimously agreed to work together to retrieve a copy of the EIA to enable knowledge sharing and more robust discussion on the matter for subsequent discussions.

Before you apply you'll want to make sure you visit the campus and get a feel for things. When I visited other schools I knew from the moment I stepped on campus if it was right for me or not. Be involved in extracurriculars and sports, try to get leadership positions to put on your application. That doesn't mean join stuff just for the hell of it though. Find something you like to do and excel at it. Grades are important - don't let them slip in your junior and senior year. If you want to be a student athlete, get your application and videos in as soon as you can. I made the mistake of applying to play on a team after I was accepted - bad move. See if your school is involved in one of RPI's medal or scholarship programs. Also, check out the ROTC programs on campus if you're interested in the military at all.Read More
Rensselaer is not like high school. You can not just drift through the classes doing the basic amount of work and expect an A on the test. The curriculum is very challenging and can seem overwhelming at times. Take a lot of time to study and really understand the material and talk to the professors about anything you are struggling with. They are very willing to help. However, don't get to wrapped up in your studies. There are a lot of great activities to be a part of and lots of amazing clubs to join. Take some time really have fun and enjoy your time at Rensselaer.Read More
Learn good study habits early on, and find people in your classes to work on assignments and study with. Also, do not be afraid to use ALAC (the tutoring service) because everyone here is smart, and the classes are challenging for everyone.Read More
You've probably heard this many times before, but know that college is VERY different from high school. I never really had to study in high school (even in AP courses), but once I got to college I realized that I actually had to put in some effort in order not to make mediocre grades. Don't let the ratio scare you off! For you girls and guys out there interested in RPI, please know it's not as bad as it looks on paper (usually)! Try to plan out your next four years early on to fit in any extra classes you want to take besides those required for your major (for example, fitting in a minor or dual major). Take AP classes/tests to get credit here! Especially AP Chem and AP Bio if your major only requires you to take the intro class to each! It's very, very useful to have those credits.Read More
RPI is a great school for engineering as well as other majors but is very challenging. It may not be an Ivy League but the work level and expectations are that of an Ivy League. Don't come here if you are looking for an easy degree.Read More

The healthcare challenge in India
By Amit Kapoor
India, since Independence, has achieved modest success when it comes to some aspects of public health, but much remains to be done for the future.
At the time of Independence, the life expectancy at birth for an individual in India was 32 years, it has more than doubled to 66 years in 2013. Similarly, the infant mortality rate (IMR or the number of babies who die before their first birthday in a given year per 1,000 live births in that year) has gone down from 164 in early 1950s to 40 in 2013.

Inception (Christopher Nolan, Leonardo DiCaprio) Grading & Discussion
View Single Post
July 18 2010, 07:56 PM

Re: Inception (Christopher Nolan, Leonardo DiCaprio) Grading & Discuss
I really enjoyed the movie, and I'd like to see it a second time soon, but I can't decide yet if the story has substance to it or just the illusion of substance.
I have a few questions about the complex final act of the movie:
Let's see if I have this straight:
-- Seven characters were asleep on the plane ride, dreaming about being in a rainy city (dream 1). They were sedated so that dying in the dream would not wake them up; the only way to get out of the dream was to wait for the sedative to wear off (which they did after getting out of the submerged van).
-- Six characters were asleep inside the van, dreaming about being in a hotel (dream 2). They were sedated so that dying in
dream would not wake them up, so they used a "kick" instead. The kick was originally supposed to be the van hitting the edge of the bridge, but they ran out of time and ended up using the van hitting the water instead. Why didn't the first kick still wake them up, though?
-- Five characters were asleep in the hotel, dreaming about being at an alpine hospital (dream 3). They were sedated so that dying in
dream would not wake them up, so they used a "kick" instead. The kick was originally supposed to be a slight drop, but the hotel lost gravity due to the van being in a free-fall, so they used an elevator propelled by explosives coming to an abrupt stop.
-- Why did they blow up the hospital in dream 3? I thought they couldn't get out of a dream by dying. Also, I thought the drop in the elevator was supposed to wake them all up.
-- Why did Cillian Murphy's character go into DiCaprio's character's dream when he was shot in the hospital?
One other thing. We saw Page's character making a totem to use like DiCaprio's character used the top. It looked like she cut the top off a chessman. I was a bit disappointed that it never seemed to show up again in the movie, unless I missed it. It seems a bit like a "Chekhov's gun" that was never fired.
Please correct me if I got any of the facts about the movie wrong. I love a movie that clearly establishes the rules of its world and then follows them (or show the consequences of breaking them), but this was a lot to keep track of!

Currently I am available to the Austin and surrounding area.
I have been an active photographer since 1997. In that time I have shot bands, car shows, tattoo expos, zen gardens, fashion and hair models, fetish shows, music clinics, sports events, and a few landscapes.
I hope to put out a book of Texas tattooed individuals in the future.
I will try to use MM to meet and engage with like minded people and see if we can come to terms that will be mutually beneficial for both of us.
I am looking to increase my portfolio and in doing so make my services available.

Thread: ratio screw up
July 9th, 2009 #1
ratio screw up
hey guys sorry if this has allready been poasted here. But I was wondering if anyone knew about the issue of when you created a giant landscape or anything that takes up alot of room in sketchup, why does it seem like it will actually shrink the size of what ever your making? example. I created a landscape, and the larger I made it, it seemed to shrink the ratio of it. like when i went into walk around mode, when i barely moved the mouse up, I would run a hundred miles an hour. and also when i zoomed in on large objects, it would fly past the object like it would if you were getting to close to a small object and it was going through it. Im not useing PRO by the way so Idk if it would still have the some problem, but is tehre anyone way to keep this from happening?

Transforming Earthquake Detection and Science through Citizen SeismologyJun 28, 2013
This white paper describes a groundbreaking system of citizen science projects by the U.S. Geological Survey and other scientific institutions to detect and monitor earthquakes and engage the public in scientific research about seismic events. These approaches seek to provide a more robust earthquake alert network and generate more real-time motion data. The paper also looks at how future efforts could be improved. Successful crowdsourcing projects at the federal level must navigate a web of practical, legal and policy considerations. This paper identifies some of these hurdles and provides lessons learned so that others may apply them to their unique missions. more

Video: Brooks release L'Eroica film - watch it here
Classic bikes (with classic saddles) feature in film about a classic randonee
In the first of a video double header Brooks have released a seven minute documentary about L'Eroica as part of a series of films highlighting some of the cycling communities they support (quite literally). For those that don't know L'Eroica is a randonee run every year in Tuscanny in which riders compete on classic bikes… so you can guess whose saddles they like.
Indeed Brooks have been sponsoring the event, which started in 1997, for many years, the brainchild of Giancarlo Brocci whose heroes were Coppi and Bartali who raced on the strada bianchi – the white gravel roads of Tuscanny, Brocci started the race in a bid to save the last of those gravel roads for future generations.
In early editions of L'Eroica bikes of any era were allowed, but such has been its success in attracting riders from around the world that these days riders are limited to bikes built before 1987, that means down tube shifters are the summit of technology allowed (although many riders don't use anything so modern) and nearly all the bikes are steel. Although L'Eroica attracts many big name riders, Francesco Moser and Andy Hampsten turned out for the 2009 edition it is the ordinary riders, and their bikes, that make it and this film special a special mention has to go to the Belgian duo who only found out that modern bikes weren't allowed a few days before the off, so setting their carbon fibre steeds to one side they dug a 30 year old tandem that belonged to one of them's father out of his garage and rode it on that – the stoker was a big lad too so chapeaux!
I'd love to take the Bates over to ride that. However with a 68" fixed it might prove a little too challenging....

68" should be okay on the climbs but the descents would be hairy even with retro pedals

Brazil pitches a pan-South American arms industry
South America's massive re-armament — some say arms race — has spotlighted the continent's dormant defense industry. As Forecast International analyst Rebecca Barrett told Flight International last spring, native arms suppliers — Lockheed Martin Aircraft Argentina, Brazil's Embraer and Chile's Enaer — play only bit roles in the recent build-up."As a result, the Latin American […]

I posted this on another thread, but thought it might deserve its own.
Rules are simple:
10 points for each correct top 4 placer
-1 for each placement you are off
For instance you pick Dustin Schlatter to finish 1st and he finishes 4th you will get 7 points for that pick.
Also if there is a replacement at a certain weight for a team, you will get the points the replacement earns, you are basically choosing the team at each weight class.
Good luck!
