Planning and zoning is on the right track
March 11, 2009 at 12:31 pm | Mobile Reader | Print
The main problem has been that many property owners have not added to that natural beauty. So as a result, the parish planning and zoning department is getting serious about changing the scenery.
Officials have already closed in on 354 of 483 violations to the planning and zoning code. These include abandoned houses, junk and debris, high grass, zoning violations and derelict vehicles. Fifty more are now being investigated.
Some years ago, under the administration of Parish President Kevin Friloux, the planning and zoning director, Dave Mekarsky, laid out a plan for emphasizing the natural beauty of our parish by restricting unsightly treatment of property. He sought to limit the size and locations of signs that gave the parish too much of a commercial look.
His plan would have added to the restful atmosphere of our parish by minimizing interruption of the peaceful flow as one drives along our beautiful countryside.
But Mekarskys plan did not materialize. Too many business owners wanted big signs close to the main roadways to attract customers.
Actually, having a beautiful parish would attract more business than the biggest of signs and other invitations to shop. Perhaps we should reconsider Mekarskys plan.
But planning and zoning is on the right track by requiring property owners to get rid of their unsightly premises. After all, other residents should not be forced to look at them. It interferes with the enjoyment of their own property.

Macy's Glamorama reveals fall's fashion trends
Photo by Emily Utne
Fall fashion 2009 is about mashing up textures, patterns and colors and tying them together with one eye-catching piece like leather studded heels or hot pink tights. Max Mara and Marc Jacobs were among a handful of designers picked for the show who stuck to a neutral color palette with intriguing splashes of metallic and shiny materials. Asymmetrical pieces with severe shapes, big shoulders (80s!), uneven hemlines and sudden slits were seen in Sportmax and Sonia Rykeil designs. Cut up fabrics, some with peek-a-boo hints of skin, and edgy rock-and-roll styles were weaved in and out of classic tweed and wool fabrics for looks by Costume National and Just Cavalli.

Familiarity is breeding contempt for United
Sunday 02 May 2010
The taxi driver, a Manchester United supporter, was as blunt as only his breed can be. "United have only played well once this season, away to Spurs," he insisted. "I can't believe they're still second."
If it was a harsh judgement, there is a kernel of statistical truth in at least the second part of his observation. Seven League defeats have always in the modern era been too grievous a hindrance to prospects of becoming champions of England. That United are still in a position to achieve that aim is testimony to their rivals' failings as much as their own obstinacy.
Perhaps that explained the air of regret as Sir Alex Ferguson discussed this penultimate weekend of the Premier League season, in which his side must effectively win at Sunderland to keep even one hand on the crown that Chelsea are favourites to snatch away. When every single point is so important at this late stage, the temptation is inevitably to look at the ones that slipped away in earlier days, in the defeats by Chelsea themselves, twice, Burnley – Burnley! – Liverpool, Fulham, Everton and at home to Aston Villa.
Grudging in defeat at the best of times, Ferguson was prepared to concede that "Everton battered us" in a 3-1 defeat at Goodison Park. That reverse, and Villa's four points against United, can be attributed, he believes, to those clubs' solid, improving squads.
"I think the present group of teams in the Premier League get used to one another," he said. "There's not the same fear about them playing you again when they've been there for a few years. The present squad of Everton have been there quite a few years, and Aston Villa under Martin O'Neill. So you get a continuity of selection and names and when they go to play United the first time it's difficult, maybe the second time not as difficult and then they get results against you."
His other argument, that injuries to every defender except Patrice Evra have cost dear, may be weakened by the surprising fact that United have still conceded fewer goals than anyone. Yet the figures are complicated. They have already scored far more (81) than in winning the title last season (a modest 68), but for fewer points and almost twice as many defeats.
Ferguson claims to have been confident about the season even without Cristiano Ronaldo, in the knowledge that Wayne Rooney would be playing further forward and that Michael Owen was also available. "Ronaldo's a tremendous loss, there's no doubt about that. He's a great player, the best player in the world. But we were pleased with [Antonio] Valencia and we also thought there was an improvement in some of the younger players, developing and maturing. We thought the rest of the structure was all right, not too bad, particularly the defensive part with great cover there. The couple of games where we were playing [Darren] Fletcher and [Michael] Carrick [in defence] like Fulham away, that was a bad defeat. That may have made the difference. We didn't expect to get the number of injuries we got."
Owen, of course, fell victim to the Wembley pitch in the League Cup final, missing the rest of the campaign, and when Rooney went over on his ankle the following month, Dimitar Berbatov was unable to take on responsibility and scoring duties for crucial games with Chelsea and Blackburn. No wonder the more disillusioned United supporters are already demanding new signings while at the same time doubting whether the Glazer family will finance them.
"The proof of the pudding is the eating, isn't it?" Ferguson says. "They've given me £20m for three players already and any time we've asked, they've supported it. There's no criticism from me because there's no criticism justified. We've signed Chris Smalling for £10m and [Javier] Hernandez for six or seven, [Mame] Diouf for four and a bit. People don't recognise that's 20-odd million on young players, but that's what we like to do, get players who are going to develop in the club, because the long-term view has got to be important at our club."
Ronaldo, he says, is the one player – Lionel Messi is not – whom he would pay £60m for, though even at the world's richest club, the figures associated with such deals horrify him. "Agents get in touch with our chief scout and say 'this player will take a drop in wages from £10m to £8m'. Oh will he? Very good of him. Jesus Christ." He nevertheless adds one tantalising line about possible buys in the close season: "There may be something."
But here we are looking back in anguish and looking forward to summer spending, when a record-breaking title is still there to play for. Red taxi-drivers should cross fingers and say a reluctant prayer for Liverpool, and how different everything could look by half-past three this afternoon.

BREAKING: Turkey Scrambles F16s after Syria Bombs Border Town. Turkey worried Assad may Resort to Chemical Weapons - Hillary Issues Warning
Poster Handle
Anonymous Coward
Post Content
I think what is going to happen according to my take on Biblical Prophecy is that Syria is going to bomb Israel with chemical weapons ... they will do this to try and rally the Muslim world to accept and praise the Assad regime .... Then Israel will go nuclear and destroy Damascus.... read the Bible.
"This message came to me concerning Damascus: 'Look, Damascus will disappear! It will become a heap of ruins. The cities of Aroer will be deserted. Sheep will graze in the streets and lie down unafraid. There will be no one to chase them away. The fortified cities of Israel will also be destroyed, and the power of Damascus will end. The few left in Aram will share the fate of Israel's departed glory,' says the Lord Almighty." Isaiah 17:1-3 (NLT)
Anonymous Coward 1348934
another take on the prophecy is that it says about destruction of Damascus however can it be certain that Damascus will be under Muslim rule when this occurs whats to say it isn't occupied by other society when it gets desolated, how about Damascus being renamed by the other society occupying the city ? would that account for Damascus being wiped out ?
"Sheep will graze in the street and lie down unafraid. There will be no one to chase them away..."

Ashkenazi looking to the sky 311.
(photo credit:Ariel Jerozolimski)
Former IDF chief of staff,
Lt.-Gen. (res.) Gabi Ashkenazi believes it is the people who make up the IDF that are
its most important component. The soldiers, rather than vehicles, aircraft,
weapons and technologies, define the military the most, Ashkenazi said in his
Tel Aviv office in March as he looked back at the 40 years he spent defending
the State of Israel."The white hairs on my head came from worrying about
people I sent out on missions and waiting for their return," Ashkenazi
said.Born in 1954 to a mother who was smuggled out of Syria by the
Palmah, and a father who came to Israel from Bulgaria after surviving the
Holocaust, Ashkenazi grew up in Moshav Hagor in the Sharon district of central
Israel.In 1972, he joined the Golani infantry brigade as a draftee,
beginning a military career that would see him involved in every one of Israel's
wars since the 1973 Yom Kippur conflict.Ashkenazi would go on to
participate in and lead daring counter-terrorism raids, including the Entebbe
hostage rescue operation, as well as operations against Hezbollah and
Palestinian terror groups in southern Lebanon.In 1978, as a deputy
battalion commander, he was wounded in Operation Litani of 1978, which was
launched to strike at Palestinian terrorists in southern Lebanon. He returned to
the IDF in 1980 despite his injury, becoming head of Golani's Battalion 51. In
1987, Ashkenazi became commander of the Golani Brigade.He continued to
rise through the ranks, holding posts such as head of the Armored 366th
Division, situated on the northern border, and head of operations at General
Staff Headquarters.

Urban Spaces: Art, music and the spirit of Ibiza
Ibiza holds a very special place in my heart – it's the island that inspired me to become a full-time music writer, a place that changed my life and somewhere I have to visit every summer. During my most recent stay, I was fortunate enough to spend a few nights at a brand new boutique hotel/art project called Urban Spaces in Ibiza Town.

Finnish illustration brilliance goes Dutch as Agent Pekka sets up Amsterdam office
Anyone who knows their European history understands that it is one of constant movement and assimilation leaving us with a mishmash identity unconstrained by official borders. As with ancient tribes, so with creative talent, and last week superbly Finnish illustration agency Agent Pekka opened up their Amsterdam office, bringing their killer reputation into the heart of central Europe.
They have marked the move with a new show Pekka is Here at the Guns and Butter gallery, featuring a host of their roster's star names including Holly Wales, Rami Niemi, Santtu Mustonen Owen Gatley and Janine Rewell. It's a glorious show with Pekka's eye for talent consistently faultless across a whole gamut of styles.
Speaking to co-founder Pablo Steffa, it's clear he is determined to scout out the best local Dutch talent as well, under the stewardship of Caroline Svensson, a former Wieden's art producer heading up the Amsterdam operation.Clearly buzzing at the move, Pablo said: "The interesting mix of international and local advertising agencies, the presence of strong global brands and the appreciation the Dutch have for good design,are all reasons why we chose Amsterdam as the city for our first office abroad."
And if you're in Amsterdam, the show is open next weekend Thusrday to Saturday 10-6pm – it's well worth a visit.

Information processing device having arrangements to inhibit coprocessor upon encountering data that the coprocessor cannot handle
Image Number 5 for
United States Patent #7788469
A hardware accelerator is used to execute a floating-point byte-code in an information processing device. For a floating-point byte-code, a byte-code accelerator BCA feeds an instruction stream for using a FPU to a CPU. When the FPU is used, first the data is transferred to the FPU register from a general-purpose register, and then an FPU operation is performed. For data, such as a denormalized number, that cannot be processed by the FPU, in order to call a floating-point math library of software, the processing of the BCA is completed and the processing moves to processing by software. In order to realize this, data on a data transfer bus from the CPU to the FPU is snooped by the hardware accelerator, and a cancel request is signaled to the CPU to inhibit execution of the FPU operation when corresponding data is detected in a data checking part.

Recent Bali reviews
"My good fried Ann and I spent 3 weeks at Madrigal Guest House and we could not have asked for a more peaceful place. We loved the open floor plan and spent a lot of our time on the beautiful veranda (we stayed on the lower floor). Wonderful decor and fabulous garden, very clean and well maintained. I loved all the tile floors and large windows with large glass doors opening up to the wonderful wrap around porch. As two younger women traveling abroad we felt very safe here. Madrigal is perfectly located, far enough away from the main street to be peaceful and yet as close as a 5 minute walk to the market, 2 minutes to Warungs (restaurants) and about 15 minutes to Ubud (taxi to Ubud $3-$5 USD). We took a long walk up through the rice fields above Ubud but also enjoyed the sun coming up over the rice field off our veranda every morning w/our coffee. Bill was fabulous, welcoming us and making us feel part of the family. Ann had gotten bit by something on the eye and he went to the market to get medicine for her and coils for us to burn on the veranda. Made' was such a great cook, always asking us what we wanted for breakfast, remembering what fruits we liked best and always having it on the ready. I had gotten sick right before arriving and had a bad cough, Made' made me fresh watermelon juice every day insisting it would help...and it did! We met her daughter Kadek and we all had some laughs visiting and getting to know each others cultures. Wsukia, is Bill's driver and was just a text away if we needed him. He is a busy guy, so when we wanted an all day adventure we made plans ahead to make sure he was available. We took 3 separate trips to different parts of Bali and he was very knowledgeable and funny. He also set up transport for us to go Gili Meno and on a cycling tour. It was very helpful and affordable. I try to be objective with reviews and coming up w/ something I didn't like is a tough one here. Air conditioning on a few days would have been nice but this was really not a bother with the open air windows and ceiling fans (which the ceiling was beautiful to!) We did have a couple of geckos that hung around on the walls, they were startling at first but became our friends. We miss you Bill, Ari, Made', Kadek and Wsukia! It was a life changing trip for me and Madrigal made it even better. We will be back! Barbara & Annie"Guest: Barbara D. Date of Stay: October 2014 Review Submitted: January 26, 2015View listing
"I live in NYC. This place is Opposite Land. Rumah Cahaya will obliterate your stress. Need a creative sabbatical? Stay here for a month and explore the interior of Bali. There's a rainforest on one side of the villa and rice paddies on the other. We woke to bird calls and luscious views, and fell asleep to gecko chirps and faint gamelan drumming--beautiful and hypnotic. On the second day, my niece said,"WHY are Maya's breakfast eggs so good?" And then we saw the chickens and hens running through the paths of our rice paddies. That curving path is like something out of National Geographic for Kids. My two young kids saw lizards, ducks, roosters, groundhogs, mice, frogs, butterflies and snakes (butterflies are bigger than the snakes). Note: Rumah Cahaya is not for the squeamish. They're all here, creatures great and small. Everything is benign. There's an ongoing symphony of chirping and burping and some of it comes from the corner of the living room. The villa's best features are the open air master bathroom and the eagle's nest, a tiny tower. Every night I'd bathe under the starriest skies—no light pollution here. After a really hot day, you bathe in the sultry perfume of frangipani. Upstairs, from the eagle's nest, you sit at an L-shaped desk while peering into a lush rainforest. The ordinary world falls away. I couldn't stop taking panoramic shots of the rice paddies. At night if you leave the tower windows and doors wide open, a little bat might swoop in and out. My son loved that! The staff: Maya makes amazing breakfasts but she'll let you know (by being late) that she prefers 9am to earlier. Finally we just had her make us lunch instead. She'll also take small parcels of laundry and return them next day. Juli, the informative driver and responsive house manager, aims to please. One day he took us to the market and I left a bag of caramel cakes somewhere. He saw my disappointment and the next day came with other caramel cakes, refusing compensation. (One day, though, Juli's brother pinch hit and charged us an arm and a leg. So, substitute Juli at your own risk!) The owner Bruce has tastefully created a luxurious home yet still in keeping with the local vernacular--wooden doors, transoms, cabinets, and wardrobe are carved with Balinese motifs, and altars and recessed nooks with Hindu statuary grace the property. My kids had so much fun exploring it all that they didn't even realize they were learning. The same goes for me."Guest: jayne r.

Fuck Donald Sterling. Let's just get that out of the way off the top.
In addition to Snoop Dogg, Meek Mill, Game and Steve Stoute responding to the extremely ignorant remarks made by L.A. Clippers' owner Donald Sterling, Lil Wayne has also added his two cents on the matter in a new vlog posted over the weekend.
This past weekend we've seen plenty of different figures within the rap community speak out against L.A.
Ever since Los Angeles Clippers owner Donald Sterling's racist phone conversation with his girlfriend leaked yesterday, various rappers have publicly expressed anger and disdain for his hurtful words.
Blake Griffin says that the L.A. Clippers days of being "Lob City" are over, as the team has a more defensive-minded approach to the game now with their sights on an NBA title. Matt Barnes has another nickname that Blake isn't too fond of.

VIDEO: THE HEIRESS' Jessica Chastain Talks ZERO DARK THIRTY on 'Chelsea Lately'
Currently starring in Broadway's The Heiress as the homely 'Catherine Sloper', Jessica Chastain appeared on 'Chelsea Lately' to talk about her role as a powerful woman in the action thriller ZERO DARK THIRTY, coming to theaters Dec. 19. Click below to watch the interview!
ZERO DARK THIRTY is the story of history's greatest manhunt for the world's most dangerous man. It follows the special operations forces mission to capture or kill Osama bin Laden. Directed and co-produced by Kathryn Bigelow with a screenplay by Mark Boal, both associated with The Hurt Locker, the film stars Oscar nominee Chastain, Chris Pratt, James Gandolfini, Joel Edgerton, EdgaR Ramirez, and Mark Strong.
The Heiress also stars Academy Award nominee and Emmy Award winner David Strathairn as Dr. Austin Sloper, the leading man of "Downton Abbey" Dan Stevens as Morris Townsend and Tony Award winner Judith Ivey as Lavinia Penniman. Written by Ruth & Augustus Goetz, The Heiress is directed by two-time Tony Award nominated playwright and director Moisés Kaufman.
The Heiress is the story of Catherine Sloper (Chastain), the shy and sheltered daughter of a prominent New Yorker. Caught between the demands of an emotionally distant father (Strathairn) and the attentions of a passionate young suitor (Stevens), Catherine must navigate the terrain of love and regret, desire and duty, a chance for happiness and the burden of fortune...as only an heiress can.
