LongHorn Steakhouse is coming to Aiken, joining a host of businesses along the bustling Whiskey Road corridor. Construction started Monday at the restaurant's nearly 1-acre site in the parking lot in front of Lowe's.
"We're always appreciate new investment in the Aiken community; we hope we have a good, profitable and encouraging business environment," said Aiken City Manager Richard Pearce on Tuesday morning after confirming that a LongHorn restaurant was being built on the Southside of Aiken.
The City of Aiken Building Inspection Division issued a building permit for the LongHorn project on April 15 after receiving an application on March 27, according to building official Mike Jordan.
"I'm looking forward to getting it open," Jordan said. "I don't know if you've ever been to one, but I enjoy it, personally."
Ganaway Contracting of Alpharetta, Ga., is overseeing the construction of Aiken's first LongHorn Steakhouse. The area of the Lowe's parking lot where the restaurant is being built has a slight slope.
"We're removing the asphalt (from the parking lot) and we're removing the existing curbs and islands so we can get ready to level up the building pad," said Scott Alligood, Ganaway job superintendent. "We'll have new islands and new parking spaces, obviously, around the building. We'll have new underground utilities – water, electric, gas, sewer and irrigation lines for the new islands. We'll also have to move a few of these light poles out of here."
Plans call for the 6,270-square-foot structure to be completed in "approximately 120 days," according to Alligood. He said the restaurant would have an occupancy load of 336 people, including staff.
Erica Jaeger, a LongHorn spokesperson, declined to provide further information, saying, "We're still in very early stages of this potential development."
LongHorn is a chain of full-service casual dining restaurants that serve both lunch and dinner. The first restaurant, then known as LongHorn Steaks Restaurant & Saloon, opened in 1981 in the Buckhead community of Atlanta. George McKerrow Jr. was its founder. The following year, LongHorn gained fame with the $1 drinks and food specials it offered after a major snowstorm that stranded commuters.
By 1990, there were LongHorn restaurants throughout the East, Midwest and South as well as in Puerto Rico.
Darden Restaurants purchased LongHorn in 2007. Today, there are more than 400 LongHorn restaurants.
Darden, based on Orlando, Fla., also owns and operates Red Lobster, Olive Garden and other restaurants.

I'm going to be at Wondercon in Anaheim today! If you see me there, say hi! (and oh god don't beat me up for not updating)
I'm going to be at Wondercon in Anaheim today! If you see me there, say hi! (and oh god don't beat me up for not updating)
And so the ride finally ends...
I'm even more excited than you are.
That's the end of Episode 9! For those of you who are new to the site, as per usual the individual updates have been combined into a full episode once they were all finished. You might notice that the Episode 9.1 intermission is missing, but don't worry, I'm going to reupload it once the first update of Episode 10 is finished, so that it sits separately from the rest of the episode.
My bad on not getting this up as early as I promised, but it kind of couldn't be helped. Also, I'm sure many of you noticed that I somehow managed to forget to pay my domain fees yesterday, resulting in the site being down for some time. Y'know, the exact same stupid thing I did last year. (Fool me twice...)
...So I guess there was an April Fools prank on the right day after all! (But am I the pranker or the fool?)
Anyway, enough of the lighthearted stuff, lets talk about serious shit. And by serious shit I mean muppetcide. As you all know our dearest Nuzpet was recently taken from us in a gross miscarriage of justice. We must try to be strong for his sake.
...and you can show your support by buying this commemorative T-Shirt in the site shop!:
Happy April Fools Day?
...or is it "merry" April Fools Day...?
...Who cares.
Either way there's no prank today (unless the joke is that I DID update?) because I'm dumb and I don't know when April Fools Day is. Yesterday's blog post was supposed to be the Aprist 1st post, but of course I uploaded it a little before midnight not realizing there were more than 30 days in March (seriously, since when?)
...Y'know, the above blogpost picture really sums up how I felt the next morning when I looked at my phone and saw "March 31st."
So yeah, Hard-Mode lives! The truth is updates on Hard-Mode really slowed down due to me obessively working on my secret project (which is looking more and more like something that will actually see the light of day) for a few weeks. After realizing how long I'd gone without an update, I was about to rush one out when I remembered that I'd never successfully pulled an April Fools prank for thsi site (unless you count me forgetting to pay my hosting bill last year...)
So I thought of a stupid joke and decided to postpone updates until April. Worth it right? Right? (r-right..?)
Also I should mention that today's update was going to be a bit longer and (FINALLY) end Episode 9 of Hard-Mode, but I cut off the last bit after deciding to rework it at the last minute. It should be up tomorrow though.
Oh, and uh, after reading the comments for the past two blog posts I feel like I need to make a small public service announcement: cops don't shoot people for jaywalking. Apparently some of you didn't know that and, y'know, you probably should.
...Nuzpet really is dead though. RIP.
Anyway, I'll have more to say tomorrow with the end of the update, I need to seriously catch some z's right now.
We back.
-The Real Nuzlocke (...OR IS IT??)
a slight misunderstanding
hello again
it is I, your beloved new nuzlocke, though I now realize that perhaps I was never really such a thing (but I suppose now is not the time to dwell on such philosophy)
I return not to provide you with new content, but to disperse some unfortunate misinformation that I may have had a hand in perpetuating.
it appears that I was mistaken when I identified the man who died in my arms last month as the person you all know as nuzlocke. as it turns out, it was actually the man's puppet counterpart, popularly known as "Nuzpet" (pictured below)
I'm sure you can understand how due to their uncanny resemblence this was an easy mistake to make, and I apologize to anyone who was emotionally traumatized by this honest misunderstanding.
I'm told th real nuzlocke is very much alive, and when made aware of the fact that his death had been posted on the internet he was said to have commented "what the fuck no I'm just busy. I'm gonna update tomorrow jesus."
While I'm sure many of you are glad to hear that the original nuzlocke still walks this earth, I know that just as many are likely saddened by the death of our beloved Nuzpet. Truly he was taken from us too soon.
as for what this means for me, the man formerly known as Nuzlocke, that's not an answer I currently possess. after gaining a new identity and having it stripped from me just as quickly, it's hard to say if I really even know who I am anymore. Hopefully I can find myself again.
for the moment I've decide to take up blogging. I've heard it's very therapeutic: http://nuzlocketwo.tumblr.com/
thank you my loyal fans, for all the good times we've shared together. I cherish them more than you can ever know.
may we meet again
-the man formerly known as nuzlocke
I'm sorry to say that I come bearing terrible news. I should first mention that I am not nuzlocke, and this is not my web site.
you see, the person you know as nuzlocke is dead.
I know this may come as a shock to many of you out there, but to others I'm sure it also explains a great deal. nuzlocke's untimely passing is the reason for the lack of content these past few weeks. it was only recently that I decided it was only fair to let you his fans know the reason for his disappearance.
as some of you may have noticed, the last recorded activity of nuzlocke on the internet was over one month ago on february 24th when he posted this tweet:
i'm sorry to report that this was the last bit of content nuzlocke will ever contribute to the internet. as i'm sure you're already piecing together, nuzlocke (real name Terrence Finglebum) was gunned down by said police officers for his reckless ignorance of pedestrian right of way laws.
it was in this terrible display of justice that i came to know nuzlocke, although briefly. having never visited this site, I knelt by the man as he lay coughing up blood onto the asphalt. I remember his words very vividly: "fuck man I never even got a 3DS."
It was shortly after this that nuzlocke (or T-Fingly as he liked to be called) left the world of the living. I felt that from our short interaction that I had come to know the man and what he represented very intimately. I knew immediately that I was meant to carry on his work and keep the legacy alive. still, I faltered under the awesome responsibility, and it took over a month to type the words you're reading now.
I would appreciate it if you would all refer to me as nuzlocke from now on, though I will also accept nuzlocke 2 or nuzlocko dos. I know that together we can keep this great site alive and even surpass its old quality with a new golden age of nuzlocke.com.
Lastly, as a first order of business I will be canceling all of the current nuzlocke comics as I feel they are all terrible. I will however be continuing nuzlocke's "Middle Earth Diaries" youtube series as I feel it was T-Fingly's crowning achievement as a web content provider.
"it all happens because it's supposed to"

|Home > Tutorials > Bootstrap > Validating Input
In the Coding Actions lesson, we validated the username and password input with a few lines of Java code. Of course, in a larger application, over time, even these few lines of code can become a maintenance burden.
Happily, the framework provides a validation framework that can validate input "behind the scenes".
Validation can be described through an XML document, or using annotations. The XML document is named after the Action being validated with a "-validation" suffix. Since we would like to validate the Logon Action class, our document is named Logon-validation.xml.
Create a file named
Logon-validation.xml next to the
Logon.java class, and paste in the code.
The first time a page displays, we wouldn't want the validation to fire. We should have a chance to enter the input before being told it's incorrect. One way to bypass validation is to refer to a special "input" method provided by the base ActionSupport class. To do that, we need to edit the Welcome page and the Logon mapping.
To indicate the changes, we'll use to indicate a line we are removing, and to indicated a line we are adding.

<a href="<s:url action="Logon"/>">Sign On

<a href="<s:url action="Logon_input"/>">Sign On

<action name="Logon" class="tutorial.Logon">
<action name="Logon_*" method="{1}" class="tutorial.Logon">
To open the Logon form, the Welcome page refers to
Logon_* action mapping.
input method on the
Logon Action class.
input method returns the result code "input".
To submit the Logon form, the Login pages refers to
Logon-validation.xml file, the framework creates a validation object for the class, based on the XML document.
The framework provides a validation framework. A set of validators can be associated with an input field. If validation fails, the framework can return to the input page and display the error messages. To bypass validation, a special "input" Action method can be invoked, instead of the default "execute" method.
For more, see Validation in the Core Developers Guide.

To The Editor:
The Washington West Supervisory Union (WWSU) administration held a math meeting last week on their plans for eighth-grade algebra. The very large turnout of current, past and future middle school parents was reflective of an array of opinions. Some were fans of the Connected Math (CMP2) program and in favor of requiring an extra year of CMP2 programming; some were not. Some were happy with the unsupervised online learning aspect; some were not.
The theme that was brought up most often was the need to preserve an accelerated math class for the eighth-graders. Articulate pleas were made to keep the one class devoted to accelerated learners, something that has been offered for at least a decade. The many advantages mentioned of maintaining an accelerated (CMP2) math class included:
The administration will be addressing the math topic at the school board meeting on Wednesday, May 16, in the Harwood Union High School library. Parents will also be holding a meeting at the Waitsfield Elementary School at 7 p.m. on Thursday, May 10 (tonight), to talk about rigor in the middle school math program and across the curriculum. If you are interested in this topic, please plan to attend both meetings.

Feinwerkbau 500 10-Meter Air Rifle
From: Feinwerkbau-F...
1-year limited warranty
Average Customer Review5.0 (2 reviews)
Create an online reviewand share your thoughts with other customers
Things I liked:The Walther LG300 is amazingly accurate, I have shot several 5 shot groups from a bench rest, at 10 meters that are a single round hole of caliber size! The fit and finish of the rifle is great. The ambi stock is very friendly to lefties and has a great amount of adjustment. The sights are very nice, I really appreciate the plastic front sight disc as it eliminates support wires for the front aperture. If you want to shoot little bitty bug holes all day long from a bench rest or improve your off hand shooting, this rifle will not let you down! As an added bonus it comes in a very nice Walther hard plastic case.
Things I would have changed:It would have been nice if the tool and accessory kit would have contained a couple of different size front apertures, and the extra butt plate spacers.
What others should know:I get over 350 accurate shots per 200 BAR charge. The H&N Finale Match 4.49's are my best pellet, out shooting both the 4.51 and 4.48. There is not a cleaning kit supplied with the rifle, I bought the Otis kit from Pyramyd and am very happy with it. I would also say buy with confidence from Pyramyd Air they have proven to be top notch to deal with.
For Tony (below). All Competition 10M Air Rifles shoot around 560 fps, give or take a little. This improves accuracy.
Is there a cheaper 10 meter gun provides this level of accuracy?
Tony--If you're a 10-meter shooter, you want to shoot an accurate gun. You can buy cheaper 10-meter rifles, but you'll never be competitive until you move up to the more accurate guns. Ten-meter shooting is an Olympic sport. Those shooters can hit the period at the end of this sentence…every time.
why would you pay $1500.oo+ for a airgun that only shoots at 510 fps. i am just curious and the this is not to mention you'll need a hand pump suba tank maybe a fittings
Things I liked:The fit and finish is excellent! The rifle is very versatile, at home off hand or on a bench rest. The accuracy is amazing with 5 shot groups from a rest often creating a single round caliber sized hole! We get well over 300 accurate shots per 200 BAR fill. The rifle comes in a very nice hard plastic case, the trigger, sights and over all adjustablity of the stock are great!
Things I would have changed:I would like to have seen a set of apertures for the front sight and butt plate spacers in the tool kit.
What others should know:Great rifle nothing but amazing workmanship and accuracy. A lot of rifle for the money.

I like the idea but find it to be a hassle at times. It would be great to have your count mount up and ready whenever you need it but I had my car broken into once for this very reason and the constant taking down and remounting caused me to run through a few of them as many of these things aren't made to be placed in a bag with other electronics that weigh more than twice as much
Mobile Nations Survey: Do you use a car mount with your smartphone?
This Mobile Nations Survey comes to you via our accessories team. We're always putting new smartphone accessories to the test, and are often getting into debates over which are the best.
One topic where the team is 100% in agreement though is car mount docks. We think that car mounts are the absolute best way to take your smartphone with you on the road.
We're curious to know if you agree, if you own a car mount or not, if you like them or not and why. Thanks for sharing!

Mobile Nations Survey: Do you use a car mount with your smartphone?
i use Bracketron PHV-200-BL. it's a vent mount. very stable, it swivels and fits any iphone with a case because the brackets adjust in width. Not only that it works with my garmin nuvi which is a must because for long rides because iphone gps kills my battery in an hour. Oh 98% time i'm listening to music when my phone is in a mount. best of all i got it at Marshalls for $7.99. Amazon has them too. http://www.amazon.com/Bracketron-PHV-200-BL-Grip-iT-Mobile-Device/dp/B00...
I think some of the best are the Proclip system custom made for your car model. http://www.proclipusa.com/ I was gonna go with those when i first go my ipod many years ago but they are a bit pricey and i decided to save my money and just lay my ipod in my cupholder. lol
I don't know of the other names in the survey
I use a small camera clap style mount...easy to stick the spreadable 3 prongs in almost any crevous in the dash...works perfect and is hide able
I use (and recommend) a combination of Panavise and ProClip mounts. My current setup is a Panavise in-dash universal mounting bracket and a ProClip device holder, and I've had this setup for about four years. I've used the same Panavise bracket for 10 years, ever since I've owned this car, and it's seen multiple device holders over time as I've upgraded phones (going backwards, iPod Touch, Blackberry Storm, iPhone, Treo 680, Treo 650, Kyocera 7135, and a dumbphone I forget the model of).
Though when I next upgrade my phone, I'll likely get the ProClip dash bracket in addition to the device holder so I can mount the phone where my now goes and dump dedicated the GPS in favor of the Garmin/Navigon/Tom Tom phone software. (The Panavise bracket is to the right of the center dash console, ProClip has one that mounts in the upper-left corner of the center console, which is closer and easier to see and use.)
I think about how convenient it would be if I had one every time I get in the car, been stuffing it between my right leg and the seat for a while now..
I absolutely love my Mountek. It fits in the CD slot and doesn't interfere with my use of the cup holders, ventilation grills, dashboard or, most importantly, the windshield. In fact, the one thing on my car I can guarantee not to need while using my smartphone is the CD slot! It holds securely and swivels in any direction.
I can't believe you missed ProClip! I drive 40k - 50k per year, so I'm in my car a lot. I've looked at lots of mounts, but there simply isn't a better system than ProClip.
First, it's amazingly simple, no drilling or tape that has to be removed later. Then it's adaptable. If you change phones, just change the holder. If you change cars, which I have to do frequently, you simply change the mount. If you need to add GPS, just add an extension plate. It just doesn't get any easier.

The Architect of the Capitol (AOC) completed a Long Term Strategic Energy Plan for the Capitol Power Plant (CPP), which identified cogeneration as the preferred solution for achieving energy savings, reducing environmental impacts, and maintaining a reliable source of chilled water and steam for Congress and the Supreme Court. The Cogeneration Plant at the CPP will use natural gas in a combustion turbine in order to efficiently generate both electricity and heat for steam.
The Plant Today: Natural Gas is the Primary Fuel Source
In existence since 1910, the Capitol Power Plant today serves 23 facilities on Capitol Hill including the Capitol Building, Capitol Visitor Center, House and Senate Office Buildings, the Supreme Court, the U.S. Botanic Garden, and the Library of Congress buildings. It has the design capacity to generate 620,000 pounds of steam per hour and 40,200 tons of refrigeration. The steam plant contains seven boilers, and the refrigeration plant houses seven electric-driven mechanical chillers that produce chilled water used for cooling.
Natural gas is the primary fuel source at the CPP. In order to save taxpayers' money, the Architect of the Capitol is part of a government consortium for which the Defense Logistics Agency procures fuel. The procurement reserves a certain quantity of fuel for the AOC at a guaranteed price; this does not mean the AOC will use the coal on reserve.
In case of a natural disaster, federal emergency or fuel shortage, the procurement allows the Plant the resources necessary to stay online in support of Congressional operations.
Reducing Greenhouse Gas: Improving the Plant through Cogeneration
Cogeneration is a proven technology that utilizes natural gas to generate two products – electricity and steam. Installing a cogeneration plant increases system reliability, improves efficiency, and helps save taxpayer money.
As part of the AOC's Strategic Long-Term Energy Plan for the CPP, cogeneration technology was identified as an energy efficient and cost effective means to meet future energy requirements by generating on-site power.
It significantly reduces greenhouse gas emissions, thereby helping to improve the air quality in the District of Columbia, and would allow for a reduction in the use of coal at the CPP.
Cogeneration has been successfully implemented at other federal facilities including NIH and GSA.
Permitting Process
The Architect of the Capitol applied to the District Department of the Environment (DDOE) for Plantwide Applicability Limit (PAL) permits and Chapter 2 construction permits. In addition, the AOC submitted an application for a PAL permit from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). The EPA issued its permit for the cogeneration project Janaury 23, 2013, the DDOE issued its permit June 5, 2013 (news release).
The permits do not allow CPP to return to coal burning, as some have suggested, because the plant currently burns limited coal as it has since the early 1900s. The proposed permits would also not roll back emission limits in order to allow the power plant to burn more coal. The permits significantly lower the emission limits at the power plant and therefore limit the amount of coal that CPP can use.
More information available at District Department of the Environment (DDOE).
