Respond to Review of Casa de Luz
by Masalaflower
Review: Set back from the street, and nestled in verdant magical trees and plants, this veg haven has a "retreat center" vibe to it. Always a welcome relief from this tech-heavy world, and a guaranteed way to catch up on homestyle veg food, if you've been on the road. It's ALL YOU CAN EAT, for $12 ($14 Sunday buffet), so arrive very hungry. They have an excellent intense pizza night once a month. But their "indian" cuisine needs some major spice tutoring... understandable, being a macrobiotic, brown rice kinda place. Be prepared to snag your own private table for 2, or else you will likely share a larger table, schooldays style.

Yaiks !!! He really looks dreadful. Those rotten teeth, really disgusting. Wondering how much longer it's gonne take for him to od'd.
warning: do NOT zoom on teeth
With that face, I think the teeth are the least of his worries.
He must be English.
Ditto! How is this guy still alive!?!
Hey wait a min., I did not know Crack heads could actually gain weight. What the hell is going on here? Is it truly the end of the world upon us? Oh Noooooooooooo!!!!!!
Dude, the infection from those dead teeth will actually probably kill him before the drugs do. That would be an interesting bet to take on.
Celebrating his upcoming role in the Dune remake.
As the Baron, or as a spice worm?
The last thing you should emulate about Shane MacGowan is his teeth.
Dear fucking Christ. The fact that woman still throw themselves at this guy is all the proof you need that fame trumps all.
Wait a minute — open sores, greasy hair, paunchy belly… are you sure this isn't Brandon Davis?
If they want a controlled zone, they're gonna have to put his face behind the big red slash on that sign.
Lily Allen does look bad.
In all fairness, the pinky on his left hand looks almost normal.
He's just causing a scene so his robot double can sneak in behind him.

"The band Elwood! The band!"
"Well Ollie, here's another fine mess you've gotten me into."

Dear mother,
Enjoying London so. A bit of chill in the air this time of year, but I'm wearing the overcoat and scarf you sent. All is going well here. How is papa? Well, must go. Some of the chaps and I will be enjoying a jaunt about town tonight. Hope this letter finds you as well as yours found me.
What's the over/under? 3 weeks?
That Peroni mouthwash isn't working.
Dear Amy,
Things are goin' great here. Same as usual. Miss you sort of but not really.
See you soon!
Ladies and gentlemen, may I present to you, the man who ruined Kate Moss for everybody!
I thought smack ruined Kate Moss.
I thought Rick and Shane killed this guy in season one.

Hello, have a question that is puzzling me and I hope someone can
I have a 99 Specialized StumpJumper Comp. I commute to work in
Michigan, about 2.75 miles each way. It is cold out but the sidewalks
are usually clear, maybe ride a little ice and packed snow at
My question is my rear tires are getting these weird diagonal lines on
the sidewalls where the tire just seems to be thinning out. This
first happened on a Hutchinson Alligator. I only noticed it when a
few of these wearing out bands got so bad that the tube was actually
bulging out. So, I switched it out for a Specialized Dirt Master comp
which is on a different rim. Now I am noticing the same wear pattern
on this second tire.
It is multiple diagonal lines that run almost the entire width of the sidewall. It is happening all around the tire and on both sides. They are spaced less than an inch apart and it just looks like it is wearing or thinning out in these spots. I thought at first it must be rubbing but I can't see anywhere that the tire doesn't clear the frame and the brake pads aren't far enough out to cause it. Also, I can't hear any rubbing when I ride. It is not abrasion from rocks or
whatever because I am riding only on the sidewalks and roads, and only
very occasionaly these aren't cleared of snow. Is it the cold? It has been down around zero for a month or two and I store it outside during the day (covered), and in the basement at night. Haven't had any problems with the front tire though, still has the Hutchinson on it and no problems. Is it just wearing out from old age? Again, the front tire still looks great.
Any Ideas?

I feel totally stupid...I've read through several boards about doing this, but I'm still clueless as to what to do which is pretty bad...lol! I just installed UnleashX on my Xbox today and I realized you could add skins to it, but I'm having problems finding where to install them to! I've read that it goes into a skins folder under the root directory, but I have no such thing...which I find strange! There's 5 drives, C:, E:, X:, Y:, and Z: but I've searched through each drive and found nothing of a skins folder whatsoever... I found this here on the forums, but it doesn't help me at all, especially the skins part considering I have no folder called skins...do I create a new folder? I do have skins preinstalled on there, but I can't even find those anywhere...*sigh* Any help would be greatly appreciated

"My sound is organic, honest. I would say transcending, classic, soulful, very emotional," Luke told Singersroom.
He adds about what he wants people to take away from his music, "I would hope they feel amazing. I just want them to listen, like really listen. I heard once, you listen with your heart not your ears and that's all I want. Whatever they take from it, as long as they give it a fair listening, a honest listening."
This dude's vocals is amazing!

KARACHI, Sept 11: A pall of gloom hung over the Jamote Jetty at Ibrahim Hyderi as a search and rescue mission continued on Tuesday for the fishermen who had drowned after fishing trawler Al-Rahman, carrying 37 men on board, capsized on Sunday evening.
Volunteers have recovered 16 bodies. Eleven men were rescued on Monday, three of whom died in hospital, taking the death toll to 19. Ten more people are yet to be found.
Edhi Janbaaz ambulances were lined up on the jetty and their staff ready, looking out towards the sea more to avoid the sad expressions all around than to receive more bodies.
A boat headed their way but stopped midway to drop anchor. "It couldn't find anyone this time so it is taking a break," said Azhar Malik, one of the ambulance staffers, madadgar, to Dawn at the jetty.
"We are getting a body after every three to four hours now as they come up themselves after 48 hours of drowning. Those yet to be recovered may be stuck in mangrove roots," said the man in charge of the Edhi Janbaaz team, Mohammad Salman.
Abdul Sattar Edhi's grandson, Ahmed Edhi, also present at the jetty said although Mr Edhi was in Quetta, he had directed him to make sure there was no shortage of fuel for the boats out on the search mission.
Asked about the state of the bodies being found after two days, people around said the bodies were in a very bad shape. "They are bloated with missing eyes, ears and noses that have been eaten by fish," said Faisal, a young man at the jetty. He had been waiting there since he first heard of the capsizing of the fishing trawler on Sunday as his younger brother Mohammad Yousuf was on it and was still missing.
"There is no hope of finding him alive now, but I'm praying they find his remains soon as he would at least get a proper burial," he said.
Another man, Karim, has lost his cousin Gulzar, who was also yet to be found, and Punnu had lost three nephews. They all hailed from Khair Mohammad Khaskheli Goth, which had 12 of its residents on the boat for the first time. "We are construction workers involved in reti-bajri work in Gadap Town. Our people only recently decided to get into fishing to supplement their income. Now eight have been saved but four are gone," he said.
Standing in a corner with wide-open eyes was a frail old Bengali-speaking man, Abdul Ghaffar, who had lost his son-in-law, Kamran, father of three. "My daughter is overcome with grief. Pray they find his body," he said quietly.
Abdul Ghaffar said his daughter had been married to Kamran for around 12 years and they had two daughters aged three and two years and a son aged seven months. "The baby boy is handicapped making him his father's favourite child," he said while holding his son-in-law's CNIC. "It has his picture for identification as I couldn't find anything else in my hurry to reach here as soon as I heard of the accident."
Families gathered at the jetty said the KMC's lifeguards also looked for the bodies, but had not been very successful. "But the boat owner, Haji Omar, is still out looking for his fishermen's bodies. His own boat, the Al-Rahman, broke after capsizing but they are four brothers, all of whom own boats and three boats are out searching for the drowned," said one of them, Sharafullah.
Asked if they had got any bad weather warning before the accident, the young man said: "Yes, we listen to the radio where they do broadcast the expected weather and weather for fishermen sailing out to sea, but we can't afford to pay heed to such warnings when our families are hungry. This is a good time for fishing, too, as the season for catching fish has only just begun after a month-long ban."
Meanwhile, the Port Qasim meteorological office said that they had issued reports of chances of thunderstorm.
Fishermen, however, said it was not that the sea was rough. "The tide that turned the boat over was rather big, but it wouldn't have hurt Al-Rahman had it not been at the edge of a cliff and loaded with catch that had already tilted the boat," Sharafullah pointed out. "And then with the net already in the sea, the fishermen got caught in it as well when they tried to swim out from under the vessel after it had capsized."

After reading through this thread I think the title might be better phrased as "Enlarger -> Control Strip Maker"
I think the work 'sensitometer' is too vague for the discussion. The word sensitometer includes a variety of instruments from the enlarger PE uses to a mammography department's control-strip maker to a Harvard-Smithsonian tube sensitometer calibrated to an Eppley standard lamp powered by an Eppley standard precision power supply wired in series with a precise 0.1ohm resistor.
The majority of sensitometers on the market are basically control-strip makers. They are very useful tools used to answer common practical questions about processing and used to provide important relative speed information.
The utility of a device for determination of absolute film speed in a home darkroom is zero as far as I am concerned. I can read the number on the film box just as well as anyone. Even if one did have such an instrument and appropriated calibrated lab in which to use it, how would you interpret your results if, for example, Ilford Delta 100 came out faster or slower than 100? Bad film? bad film company? bad calibration? bad day in the lab ?

Deswell Announces Second Quarter 2013 Results -Company Announces Second Quarter Cash Dividend of $0.05 Per Share - Business Wire MACAO -- November 16, 2012 Deswell Industries, Inc. (Nasdaq: DSWL) today announced its financial results for the fiscal second quarter ended September 30, 2012. Net sales for the second quarter ended September 30, 2012 were $16.3 million, a decrease of 9.5% compared to net sales of $18.0 million for the same quarter ended September 30, 2011. Net sales increased by 9.2% to $8.4 million in the Company's plastic segment and decreased by 23.5% to $7.9 million in the electronic and metallic segment. The operating loss in the second quarter was $0.08 million, compared to an operating loss of $0.2 million for the same quarter of fiscal 2012. Total gross margin increased to 16.1% in the second quarter ended September 30, 2012 compared to 14.0% in the same quarter last year. Gross profit margin in the plastic segment increased to 19.3% of net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 compared to 16.3% of net sales for the same quarter of last fiscal year. The increase of gross profit and margin in the plastic segment was mainly due to decreases in factory overhead and depreciation expense as a percentage of net sales. Gross profit margin in the electronic and metallic segment slightly improved to 12.7% of net sales for the second quarter ended September 30, 2012 compared to 12.3% of net sales for the year-ago quarter. The improvement in gross profit margin in the electronic and metallic segment was mainly attributed to efficient usage of raw materials, offsetting an increase in labor cost as a percentage of net sales.

Mr. Franki Tse, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "In the plastic segment, our more consumer-related business, sales and gross margin have improved. Recently we obtained the quality management system ISO13485:2003 certification which allows us to manufacture plastic parts for medical devices, a new market opportunity for us. In our electronic and metallic segment, thesoftening demand prevails and sales of professional audio products and fixtures are still suffering from the global economic situation. We are devoting more effort and resources into product design and development and expect this will help us to secure more orders and improved gross margins in the future. Our balance sheet remains particularly strong with cash and no long or short term debt and we expect to declare dividends in each of the coming three quarters of at least $0.05 per share. Second Quarter Dividends The Company also announced that on November 16, 2012 its board of directors declared a cash dividend of $0.05 per share for the fiscal second quarter ended September 30, 2012.

Forward-Looking Statements Statements in this press release that are "forward-looking statements" are based on current expectations and assumptions that are subject to risks and uncertainties. For example, our statements regarding our expected growth in sales from the electronic and metallic division in the coming year and our efforts to reduce overhead costs in our plastic division are forward-looking statements. Actual results could differ materially because of the following factors, among others, which may cause revenues and income to fall short of anticipated levels or our overhead expenses to increase: our dependence on a few major customers; vigorous competition forcing product price reductions or discounts; the timing and amount of significant orders from our relatively few significant customers; continuing increases in resin prices that cannot be passed on to customers; unexpected production delays; obsolete inventory or product returns; losses resulting from fraudulent activity of our customers or employees; labor shortages that increase labor and costs; changes in the mix of product products we manufacture and sell; adverse currency fluctuations in the renminbi and Hong Kong dollar when translated to US dollars; potential new accounting pronouncements; and the effects of travel restrictions and quarantines associated with major health problems, such as the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome, on general economic activity.

I'm pretty new at Matlab so would need a baby-steps explanation.
I have some MIDI data which looks a bit like this:
time on/off note
10 1 61
90 0 61
90 1 72
92 1 87
100 0 72
What I want to do is expand or 'fill-in' the gaps so that I have a row for every single moment in time, and I have columns which show which notes are on (there is often more than one note at the same time).
the ultimate goal is to do some calculations about the overall relationship between notes on (the harmonic dissonance) at a given time.
So I was thinking that maybe I needed a new column for every single possible note (there are 127), and then a 1 or 0 for every time. Or maybe I can just have a matrix which just tells me which notes are on (so the number of columns varies).
I wrote my own pseudo-code, but have no idea how to implement it. I suspect there is a simple function that can do this. Here is my pseudo-code:
start with 0, at time 0 in a new 'notes-on matrix'
for numbers: 0 to n
if the number matches a number in the time column, go to the on/off column for that row.
if 1 in on/off column then copy number in notes column to 'notes-on matrix' for corresponding row
if 0 then don't copy/do nothing.
if number doesn't match number in time column
copy the previous row (which can be blank if there were no notes on).
for each row in the new 'notes-on matrix', arrange numbers low to high in different columns.
So can anyone tell me what to do?? I'm banging my head against a brick wall here!

Friends Tap Talents of the Disabled
A Sant'Egidio Group Exhibits Artistry of the Handicapped
| 2664 hits
ROME, NOV. 15, 2007 (Zenit.org).- The handicapped need to know that they are not condemned to a life alone but can contribute to change the world, says Stefano Capparucci, a member of the Catholic lay Community of Sant'Egidio.
Capparucci was describing the philosophy behind the Friends Movement of the community that works to find ways to best use the talents and gifts of the disabled.
"It is our desire for the disabled to know that their handicap is not significant enough that they can't help others," he told ZENIT.
This week, the Friends Movement is sponsoring the second annual exhibit "Children of the World, the World of Children: Work of Disabled Artists," in the Trastevere district of Rome.
The exhibit, under way through Sunday, features the work of 330 artists from 12 studios around Rome, and is sponsored by the city and numerous other organizations, museums and businesses.
"Some of the artists are unable to speak, but they are able to communicate their world through their painting," explained Capparucci.
The paintings, artistically framed, revolve around themes such as Africa, Christ's birth, and families. They range from the abstract, to more traditional styles, including one classic-looking icon of the Blessed Mother and the Child Jesus.
The pieces are for sale and proceeds go directly to the Sant'Egidio DREAM Program (Drug Resources Enhancement against AIDS and Malnutrition) in Africa.
Trattoria degli Amici (Friends Restaurant) is another venture of the Friends Movement.
In the heart of touristy Trastevere, the restaurant blends in with the many other eateries. It provides opportunities for the handicapped, through jobs as support staff, and by featuring the paintings of disabled artists year round.
The restaurant's wait staff is all-volunteer, with only the chefs and the handicapped employees taking wages. The profits also go directly to the DREAM program.
Not just helping those with disabilities, Capparucci affirmed, "the Friends Movement also explains to people who are a little afraid of the handicapped world: It is not a world of sadness but a world of great joy."

JERUSALEM — A U.S.-based rights group said Israel violated laws of war in a series of airstrikes it conducted during an eight-day military operation last November against Hamas militants in the Gaza Strip.
Human Rights Watch said it counted 14 airstrikes in which there didn't appear to be a valid military target, and four others targeting militants, but which used disproportionate force.
HRW said the attacks killed more than 40 Palestinian civilians.
Israel's air assault came after weeks of increased rocket fire by Palestinian militants in Gaza toward Israeli communities.
In the past, Israel has blamed Hamas for civilian casualties, saying the group uses schools, mosques and residential areas for cover while carrying out attacks. But cases of mistaken identity or faulty intelligence have also been known to result in civilian casualties.

Leading up to his confession, Lockyer had told the group that, following his new marriage and the birth of his infant son, he was a changed man. He even recited a poem ("Dover Beach" by Matthew Arnold,
which calls for true love in a world that offers beauty but no certitude). It was a quintessential California moment: new wife, new baby, new politics. Apparently, the A.G. is too happy to endure what he earlier had dubbed Davis' "puke politics."
Lockyer called the Davis 2002 strategy "the politics of subtraction,'' as it entailed deliberately running a campaign so dirty that voters would stay home.
"These aren't smart bombs," said Lockyer. They don't just make one group cynical; they taint the whole neighborhood. So Lockyer decided to go for the candidate who offered something different. In his words, "hope."
I don't care if Lockyer was being opportunistic (as most insiders suspect) or genuine. At least the A.G. got the message of the recall: Californians want more results, less carping. And they want to be heard above the dangerous din of the almighty dollar.

Molecularly Editing Populations for Specific Benefits
Despite a Serious Investment in Information...
Early-Drug Screening Is Due For Review
Life Sciences Researchers Talk About the...
Inherited variations in certain genes make children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) susceptible to side effects of chemotherapy, report investigators at St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The researchers showed that these polymorphisms occur in specific genes known to influence pharmacodynamics.
"When the results of our findings are translated into routine clinical care, we should see less toxicity among children being treated for ALL," notes Mary Relling, chair of the pharmaceutical sciences department at St. Jude and senior author of the study reported in the May 15 issue of Blood.
The St. Jude team extracted DNA from healthy white blood cells of 240 patients and looked for 16 polymorphisms previously linked to drug pharmacodynamics. The scientists identified links between specific polymorphisms and gastrointestinal, infectious, hepatic, and neurologic toxicities during each phase of treatment. The three stages of therapy were induction, the initial phase designed to cause remission of the cancer; consolidation, the follow-up after induction; and continuation, the final phase to ensure comprehensive elimination of cancer cells.
The study showed that some of the 16 genetic polymorphisms are linked to toxic side effects during more than one treatment phase and some caused more than one type of toxicity, the researchers report. Additionally, they say, certain polymorphisms were linked to the pharmacokinetics of specific drugs.
For example, the investigators found that during the induction phase, polymorphisms in the two genes that were part of a biochemical pathway that breaks down chemotherapy drugs were linked to gastrointestinal toxicity and infection. In the consolidation phase, when drugs called antifolates were the main treatment, a folate was associated with gastrointestinal toxicity, as it was during the continuation phase. Also, in all three phases, one polymorphism was linked to hyperbilirubinemia partly caused by the drug methotrexate.

Canham 5x7 Camera with 6x17 back. That gives you 4x5, 5x7 and 6x17 with 1 camera plus full movements.
I got rid of my Linhof 6x17 camera for the canham. Best move I ever made. Also remember that not only is the 617 camera expensive but you also have to buy their lenses and with the linhof you are talking $4-$5K per lens.

Narciso Rodriguez, whose body-conscious, minimalist dresses are beloved by the likes of Claire Danes and Michelle Obama, is teaming up with Kohl's on a limited-edition capsule for the mass retailer. No word yet on the exact price points or number of looks we can expect, but suffice it to say these pieces will surely cost far less than the designer's usual thousand-dollar red carpet creations.
It's not the first time Rodriguez has worked on a diffusion line; back in January, he worked with Rent the Runway on an exclusive capsule, and he teamed up with eBay on a similar project in 2010. But here's what's really intriguing about this particular announcement: according to WWD, the New York designer's Kohl's line will reportedly be the first of many such collabs for the chain. In other words, Kohl's might soon challenge Topshop, H&M and Target when it comes to designer team-ups. We can't wait to see what happens.

My wife and I have been camping regularly ever since we both started in the Scouts and the Guides. We have used regular campsites and in our back packing and mountaineering days have wild camped in various remote and mountainous areas, therefore camping techniques come naturally to us. For anyone new to camping these tips might just help those first few cycle camping trips be that bit more comfortable and enjoyable.
Perhaps some of these tips might seem like common sense, however having seen some people camping it makes me wonder!
1. Choosing a tent
Making the right choice of tent can be important to successful and enjoyable camping, however tents like all gear is very much a personal thing so make up your own mind as to what you require from a tent. Here are a few tips from our own experience that might help when making your choice:
3. Pegging & Tent Pegs
When pegging out guy-lines the pegs should be placed in the ground at a rough angle of 90º to the line of the guy-line for most effective anchorage and perhaps angled slightly back from this to make sure that the guy-line doesn't slip up the peg. The depth that you place the peg will depend on the firmness of the ground.
For some unknown reason people seem to think tent pegs have to be hammered in to the ground, many a time we have been woken up by people arriving late at night and hammering their pegs into grass that we have pushed ours into earlier. I can only think of one occasion that we had to resort to the help of a rock and that was on the Dreki campsite in Iceland and there there is no top soil just hard cinder ash.
All hammering does is to guarantee that you will bend and damage your pegs. Only the large ash wooden pegs that we used to have in the scouts to put up large canvas ridge tents or the thick steel pegs are designed to be hammered in with a mallet. Unfortunately not all campsites have a nice depth of soil and quite often there are stones underneath. If you start hammering your pegs in they will merely hit the stones and bend. If you push your pegs in with your hand you will feel if it hits a stone and a slight repositioning or a slight change in angle can usually miss the stone altogether. If the ground is quite hard to push in with your hand then a gentle pressure with the sole of your boot will push it home, but should you feel too much resistance stop and reposition the peg or you will indeed bend it.
Count those pegs!
I would be a rich man if I had a pound for all the tent pegs that I have found on campsites, most of these were still in the ground and we are not always talking about the cheap wire pegs as some are quite often light weight alloy and titanium pegs from expensive tents. To us a tent peg is an integral part of the tent, we know exactly how many pegs we carry and religiously count them up as we pack the tent.
4. Condensation
Unless you are using an older style canvas or cotton tent most modern tents that use synthetic fabrics suffer from condensation. If the temperature of the moist air inside the tent is warmer than the temperature of the air outside then the moisture inside will condense on the inside of the outer skin of the tent as it cools, this is generally what happens overnight as the temperatures drop.
If you had a single skin tent then the condensation would run down the inside of the tent and wet your ground sheet and if you touched the sides you would also get wet.
Most modern tents get over this problem by being double skinned. They have an inner tent made from a fabric that is breathable and lets
water vapour out and a outer skin or fly sheet which is waterproof. Any condensation that forms on the outer fly sheet isn't generally a problem as it usually runs down the inside of the tent and drips off the bottom of the fly sheet away from the inner tent.
I say generally it isn't a problem
but there are times when it is a nuisance:
Personally we prefer to pack a dry tent as it is less weight to carry and getting into a damp tent at the end of a days cycling isn't the best. If the weather is good it is worth spending a bit of time drying the tent. If it is a warm sunny morning with a bit of wind and you open all the doors it will probably dry by the time you have finished breakfast and packed everything inside. You can speed things up by rubbing an absorbent towel over the inside to remove most of the moisture first.
How to reduce condensation
Most good tent designers recognise that condensation is problem and fit vents to help with air flow to help remove the condensation build up. The vents only work when there is a bit of a wind to move the air through the tent and therefore you will notice more condensation on still nights.
5. A Good nights sleep
6. Food & cooking
7. Tent organisation
Using a hedge as a clothes line to dry out waterproofs at the end of the day.
8. Wild camping
In certain countries such as Finland, Norway and Sweden it is quite legal to wild camp. In Finland they have designated bivi spots where there will be some form of water supply such as a lake or stream, a fire place stocked with cut firewood and an earth closet toilet. My wife and I have wild camped several times on our cycle tours in Finland and Norway .
All wild campers need to remember their responsibilities and try to minimise the impact that they might make on the environment they camp in. We want everyone to continue to experience the joys of unspoilt wilderness camping, so the message is quite simple:
'Leave no trace'
'Leave no trace'
'Leave no trace'
'Leave no trace'
After you have left a site, no one should have any idea that you had been there.
Here are a few tips to help minimise that impact:
Scorch marks left by previous campers
Stoves on rocks to prevent scorching vegetation
It is possible to wild camp in the upland areas of Scotland. For some advice on wild camping in Scotland have a look at these links:

Vt to dismiss charges against man shot by police
BURLINGTON Vermont prosecutors say theyre going to dismiss assault charges filed against a mentally ill man who was shot and wounded by police during a struggle.
A psychiatrist says the defendant, 35-year-old Isaac Sage, of Winooski, suffers from paranoid schizophrenia and that he was insane during the alleged assaults and is incompetent to stand trial.
The Burlington Free Press quoted Chittenden County States Attorney T.J. Donovan as saying after a Friday status conference that his office intended to drop the charges against Sage.
Sage pleaded not guilty last month to two counts of aggravated assault on a law enforcement officer and other charges.
Sage was shot in the leg April 25 after shocks from a stun gun failed to subdue him. He spent three days in jail before being hospitalized.MORE IN Vermont News

|A Model: An Organization that fosters internal motivation
|Barber, Sheila
|This thesis provides a model of an organization that can maintain a continuous level of employee internal motivation. It does this by comparing the current situation with a model of a new conceptualization. It then compares the current situation and the modeled perspective to decipher what gaps are preventing the model from being implemented. From here it defines action strategies that can be used to eliminate the gaps and make it a baseline to structure the model so that the tasks completed and the organization are able to enhance the members internal motivation. The model begins with motivated leaders and their vision of providing an environment that fosters internal motivation and will lead to quality service behavior. The vision and the culture of the organization become working elements of the organization. The organizations employees become members of the team. The team develops into a self managed team. They are empowered to make decisions and implement improvement programs. The team members are a part of a continuously learning environment. Once they have matured in the team, their empowerment helps to create an informational environment where they have the ability to find some resources on their own. The leaders provide team members with changes and the resources to implement their programs. The leaders also act as control agents and a source of feedback for the team members. When these elements are combined they provide a new conceptualization of an organization that fosters internal motivation.

Review for Grey2k Usa Education Fund, Arlington, MA, USA
Grey2K does nothing to help greyhounds. They exist only to shut down tracks, leaving hundreds of greyhounds without homes- endangering their lives. They do nothing to find homes for all these greyhounds, leaving the work to rescue groups across the country. They perpetuate myths about how the breed is managed and kept, using myths and anecdotes that are outdated and far behind the times. Anyone who believes that racing greyhounds- which sell for thousands of dollars as puppies- would be neglected and abused in some deranged attempt to enhance performance is seriously deluded. In turn, they exploit the breed in order to raise more money to keep themselves in business- a bureaucracy in search of a cause. Don't send them money; racing is dying out as it is. Economic forces will put most of the tracks under within a few years; no "help" from Grey2K is needed.

Greylock Partners is one of the oldest venture capital firms, founded in 1965, with committed capital of over $2 billion under management.[2] The firm focuses on early stage companies in the consumer, enterprise software and infrastructure as well as semiconductor sectors. Today, Greylock operates out of offices in the Bay Area and Cambridge (USA). Their branch in Israel formerly known as Greylock IL was rebranded as 83north in January 2015.[3]
Greylock was founded in 1965 by Bill Elfers and Dan Gregory, joined shortly thereafter by Charlie Waite. The name Greylock comes from the street where Elfers lived, in Wellesley Hills, Massachusetts.[4] Elfers and Waite had both worked at American Research and Development Corporation—one of the country's first venture capital firms—while Gregory was an investment manager at John P. Chase. The original capital ($9 million in total) was committed by a group of six families,[citation needed] all of whom are still investors in Greylock.[citation needed] Over the ensuing 43 years, Greylock has raised a series of partnerships, with committed capital in excess of $2 billion as of 2014,[5] and invested in more than 300 growth companies.[citation needed]
Greylock's limited partners include the nation's most prestigious university endowments,[citation needed] major American industrial families,[citation needed] and not for profit foundations.[citation needed] Greylock has had all of its limited partners participate in all partnerships subsequent to their original investment.[citation needed]
Greylock Partners is organized in a series of thirteen (fourteen as of 2013) limited partnerships begun in 1965, 1973, 1979, 1983, 1985, 1987, 1990, 1994, 1997, 2000, 2001, 2005 and 2009. In 2006, Greylock launched Greylock Israel, a separate fund dedicated to Israel; it was rebranded 83north in 2015. On 2 November 2009 Greylock announced a $575 million fund, and hired LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman as a partner. The company organized a fourteenth fund in 2013, with a size of $1 billion.[6]
Greylock Partners focuses on the following areas of investment:
- Consumer and Services: Financial, Healthcare, Internet, Mobile, Retail, Systems Integration.
- Enterprise Infrastructure: Compute/Data Center, Management, Networking, Security, Storage.
- Enterprise Software: Applications, Software-as-a-Service (SaaS)

SAN DIEGO (AP) — A change-of-plea hearing has been scheduled for a manager of a Singapore-based defense company implicated in a multimillion-dollar bribery scheme involving U.S. Navy personnel.
Alex Wisidagama will appear before a federal judge in San Diego at 2 p.m. Tuesday, according to the court calendar.
Wisidagama served as the general manager of global government contracts for Glenn Defense Marine Asia Ltd., or GDMA, which is accused of overbilling the Navy by at least $20 million for port services.
He was arrested last year along with his cousin, Leonard Glenn Francis, the CEO of GDMA. At least six naval officers have been implicated in the scheme, including two commanders who were arrested.
An agent with the Naval Criminal Investigative Service, John Beliveau II, pleaded guilty in the case to bribery charges.

I rode today on my town's boulevard and have come to the conclusion that my town sucks. I rode to the gym, only about 1/3 mile on the boulevard, 3 lanes eachway. This was during rush hour as well. I have to merge onto the bouevard then after about 2 intersections go through 3 lanes to make a left turn. Well I was approaching the intersection where i need to make a left hand turn (2 lanes to turn left) so i start to move over. I move to the far left lane and am about 100 ft from where the turn lanes start. The dumb idiot behine me starts hocking his freaking horn at me. Then on the way home I was riding in the far left lane for about 250 ft. waiting for the turn lane and I get honked at twice. I hate my town.
I want to go back and ride in downtown Sacramento, so much funner
Just thought I would express my bitterness towards my lame town. Stupid Mercedes drivers
