You may have read Jim's excellent posts about policy creation (part 1, part 2) or seen check-in policies mentioned in Chris Menegay's MSDN article on Team Foudation Version Control. Either way, check-in policies are a useful mechanism for running code at check-in time to perform whatever sanity checks you want (Are there tabs in your source? Did it successfully build? Did the unit tests run successfully? Are there copyright statements in the source? Did it pass FxCop tests? Is the source formatted as per company guidelines? Was there sufficient use of Cornflower Blue? Was the source rot13 encoded at least twice?).
The very typical situation is that people are going to implement policies just like Jim showed in his example - your policy's Evaluate will return an array of normal PolicyFailure objects. Those PolicyFailure's you return back to the policy framework get used in a few different manners. First, obviously, we display them in the list of policy failures. However, there's also a couple of methods on them that we can call depending on what the user does. If the user decides to double-click on an individual failure in the list of policy failures, we will call that PolicyFailure's Activate() method. If they select the failure and then hit F1, we will call that PolicyFailure's DisplayHelp() method.
Rather than force policy authors to do even more work, the PolicyFailure objects that you normally use will take these 2 method calls - failure.DisplayHelp() and failure.Activate() and simply defer them to the actual policy (the class you wrote that implements IPolicyEvaluation), calling policy.DisplayHelp(failure) and policy.Activate(failure) respectively. Then your policy can do whatever it wants to perform those actions for the user.
However, we realize that maybe there are situations where you don't always want to handle things the same way, so we allow you to subclass PolicyFailure and override the DisplayHelp and/or Activate methods (they're both virtual) to do whatever custom logic that particular failure may want to do. You may have them call the base.DisplayHelp / base.Activate or not, which is totally up to you since the base calls are going right back to your policy anyway.
class MyPolicyFailure : PolicyFailure
public MyPolicyFailure(string message, IPolicyEvaluation policy)
: base(message, policy) { }
public override void Activate()
MessageBox.Show("Wonder-twin powers ... Activate!");
public override void DisplayHelp()
MessageBox.Show("Help! Help! I'm being repressed!");
Once you have your own custom policy failures, you could mix and match the ones you send back from your policy's Evaluate
class MyPolicy : IPolicyEvaluation, IPolicyDefinition
public PolicyFailure[] Evaluate()
return new PolicyFailure[] {
new PolicyFailure("this one is so normal", this),
new PolicyFailure("this one is normal too", this),
new MyPolicyFailure("Blast!", this),
new MyPolicyFailure("What the deuce?", this),
new PolicyFailure("back to normal", this),
Now, I have to admit I can't think of any reason off-hand you would need to create your own PolicyFailure subclass, but the flexibility is there if you really want it.
Why does any of this matter? One very specific reason.
Remember how the PolicyFailure just turns around and calls the policy passing itself as the parameter? That's very important to know. Imagine you're writing a policy and it comes time to implement DisplayHelp(PolicyFailure) or Activate(PolicyFailure). You'll notice that the PolicyFailure you've been passed has a matching method of the same name. You may be very tempted to just say something like:
void IPolicyEvaluation.Activate(PolicyFailure policyFailure)
void IPolicyEvaluation.DisplayHelp(PolicyFailure policyFailure)
Can you guess at this point why this is bad? That's right! You've just created a nice little stack overflow as your policy calls the PolicyFailure's method, which in turn calls your policy's method. Lather, rinse, repeat-until-crash. PolicyFailure by default is deferring these methods to the policy, and when these methods hit your policy, you are the authoritative source for what to do when these methods are called - do NOT try to pass them back to the PolicyFailures. The one possible exception case would be if your policy never uses the default PolicyFailure class and your subclasses never call through to the base, but that's not a situation I would recommend. Your policy's DisplayHelp and Activate should do whatever you want to have happen when the user asks for help or chooses to activate (double-click, for instance) your failure. As an example, one of the check-in policies that ships out-of-the-box is the "Work Items" policy that requires there's a work item associated with this checkin. If the user double-clicks on that failure, it does a very nice thing - automatically switches you over to the Work Items channel so that you can select a work item with this changeset.
And, finally, you may decide that implementing those 2 interfaces (IPolicyDefinition and IPolicyEvaluation) is just too much work and you want to do something simple. To make it even simpler, we give you an abstract PolicyBase class that you can subclass in the creation of your policy.
class SimplePolicy : PolicyBase
public override PolicyFailure[] Evaluate()
return new PolicyFailure[] {
public override bool CanEdit { get { return false; } }
public override bool Edit(IPolicyEditArgs policyEditArgs)
// no UI for this policy, so the settings can't change
return false;
public override string Description { get { return "foo"; } }
public override string Type { get { return "bar"; } }
public override string TypeDescription { get { return "baz"; } }

Generally, to be eligible for UI benefits you must:
For more information, see the "What Every Worker Should Know about Unemployment Insurance" pamphlet. (Spanish Version)
For both Windows and Mac users, here are supported browsers:
A recent version of Adobe Reader, version 8.0 or higher. Download Adobe Reader for no charge.
It varies. The minimum amount of benefits for an individual is $51 a week, and the maximum is $426 per week. Claimants with non-working spouses can receive up to $507 per week, and up to $580 a week with dependent children. However, your benefits depend on your unique circumstances.
Roughly 7-10 days after filing, claimants receive a "UI Finding Letter" in the mail. It contains important information about the claim including the weekly benefit amount and certification day. This document is very important; please keep it in a safe place.
Note: Before any benefits can be paid on a new claim, you must serve a non-paid "waiting week". Electronic payments made to eligible individuals are generally available within 2-3 business days of certification.
Shortly after filing your claim, you will receive a "finding" letter from IDES in the mail. This letter that will inform you when you should first certify for benefits. On the assigned date, go to the IDES website and click the link for "File Certification" in the top-right corner for the online UI services.
Select the option "File My Certification" near the bottom of the page. You will be prompted to login, which requires your online username and password. If you don't have this information, there is a short registration process to obtain it. After login select the option, "Claim Certification" and proceed through the questions.
Below is a list of questions that will be asked during the certification process. You should review and prepare the answers before you certify to ensure quick, accurate certification. Your answers to the questions will determine your eligibility for benefits.
Also, depending on the program (regular, extended, etc.) from which you are receiving benefits, you may be asked additional questions.
Source: I Filed My Claim - What Happens Now? (Spanish)
If you find a job (including temporary, seasonal employment), you should still certify by logging in online or calling Tele-Serve, as you normally would on your designated day. Pay close attention to the question that asks, "DID YOU WORK DURING THE PERIOD OF SUNDAY [week 1 beginning date] THROUGH SATURDAY [week 2 ending date]?"
When you answer "YES" to this question and respond with the dollar amounts you earned for the period, IDES will properly suspend your claim in the system. You will receive a notice in the mail confirming your response of having returned to work. There will be no further action required from you unless and until you need our services again.
Unemployment Insurance (UI) benefits can be paid automatically through direct deposit to a checking or savings account. Direct deposit is a simple, smart, secure choice for receiving benefits. You won't need a debit card or have to establish a PIN to access funds. Thus, there is no chance of a lost or stolen debit card. There are no additional banking fees associated with direct deposit. Direct deposits can be established online. Use the following link to apply: Enroll in Direct Deposit (login required).

Miami skyline from Biscayne Bay,
from Carol M. Highsmith Archive, Library of Congress.
Jane: Interesting column. That first location on Biscayne is not the greatest neighborhood these days. I never went to a Playboy Club, but one of my favorite servers at Joe's Diner in Naples is a cute 70 something woman who worked at that club from the onset. Even though the years have marched by, I can still picture her with a fluffy little bunny tail. A good Easter message column from you.ReplyDelete
I used to go to that Playboy Club with dates. It was a reasonable place for a night out. Used to give me a complex, however. Those bunnies got more attention from my dates than I did!
I went to the club in '73 and I thought it was on Miami Beach then? It was already on the decline serving drinks in plastic cups.ReplyDelete
I'll check the dates in a few days.ReplyDelete
Not sure of the year, though I'm quite sure it was the early 70s, I was there with my dad, staying at the hotel because the Buddy Rich big band was playing in the hotel's nightclub.ReplyDelete

Okay, so I wasn't sure how to phrase the title.. but my mare has always made me wonder...
Why are there not really any 'pale' (i.e. Buckskin, especially the lighter buttermilks, or palomino, cremello, perlino) horses that have the appaloosa patterning? Or am I just missing something in my random searches of boredom and knowledge gaining?
My buttermilk buckskin mare is half appy (sire was loud bay leopard), half QH (dam was cremello). I suppose it is because I don't know enough on the appy genetics, but was always surprised she didn't have a pattern to her coat.
Am I just not finding the pics, does the pattern disguise the color? Is it not as possible due to the genes?
Thanks for putting up with my possibly stupid question! I am trying to learn about appy genetics! :)

Carbonara is given a lemon twist in this easy, yet decadent pasta dinner.
I don't understand spammers. Luckily, most of the spam comments I get go straight to a spam folder, but I like to go through that spam every once in awhile because legitimate comments sometimes get pushed over there. But I have to laugh every time I read through some of them.
Necessary to draft you the very small paying attention just to thanks to you as just before for those stunning tricks you've found on this website. This is certainly surprisingly kind of you to mention freely what precisely numerous people can have offered available for purchase for an electronic book in making some coinage for their personal end, undoubtedly since you can have tried it should you desired. These kinds of good guidelines additionally behaved to become easy way to be certain that visitors have a similar aspirations much like mine to find out fairly more with regards to this condition. In my opinion there are several more enjoyable instances in the beginning for people who look into your site.
Dear Killing Weeds – I'm pretty sure I don't even know what you said there. Your comment just goes to prove that you can't just type something into a language converter and have it come out making sense. But thanks for visiting!
This is very fascinating, You're an excessively skilled blogger. I've joined your feed and look forward to in quest of extra of your great post.
Dear best baby bath tubs – Thank you for the compliment! I do strive to be an excessively skilled blogger. And you almost won me over with your compliments – until that whole "look forward to in quest of extra of your great post." You lost me there.
I am glad to be a visitant of this everlasting weblog ! , thanks for this rare information! .
Dear payday loans – I'm not exactly sure that "visitant" is a word. And while I have been blogging for quite some time now, I wouldn't actually qualify my blog as "everlasting" or "rare." But thanks for visiting!
Your fashion is so unique in comparison with several other individuals. Thanks for publishing once you possess the chance,Guess I will just make this bookmarked.
Dear Loma Elders – I'm glad you think that I am fashionable, even though this is a blog about food, not fashion. And I'm sure if you saw me in real life, you wouldn't really call me fashionable. I am a stay at home mom of 2, after all.
Great blog…
The next time I read a blog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as much as this one. I mean, I know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about something that you coul…
Dear Dubstep Software – You had me all excited, starting off with "Great blog" and all, and then you go and kick me where it hurts. I disappoint you? I'm not interesting? Hey – you're the one who couldn't even finish your comment.
And one of my favorites:
A lot of stores have the name Banana in them. Why?
I don't even know what to say about this one…
I could go on and on – some of them are quite humorous! But seriously, who pays these people to do this? It's obvious that for most of them, English is not their first language, because most of them don't make sense. And do any of these comments actually get through on people's blogs? I'm just curious, because it seems like a big waste of time to me…
But what is not a waste of time is this pasta dish. 30 minutes to a glorious dinner. I'm a huge carbonara fan in the first place, and the addition of the lemon in this recipe is so bright and refreshing. I had to adapt it a bit to ingredients that I had or could find, but it turned out fantastic. In fact, Rachael Ray's pasta dishes usually make way too much for my little family, so I usually make a half recipe and we have leftovers. There were no leftovers after we were done eating this!! It's one I'd highly recommend. Now, I just need to find out a way to stop those spammers…

- Meanwhile, in a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the bacon, season with pepper, and cook until browned. Add in the whites of the scallions, the chile pepper, the garlic and the thyme. Zest the lemon over the pan and cook for 3 minutes. Stir in the chicken stock. Cook until the stock is reduced by half. Turn the heat to low.
- In a small bowl, beat the egg yolks with the pasta water to temper the eggs. Add the juice of the lemon, the parsley and the greens of the scallions to the pan. Add in the cooked pasta. Turn off the heat and stir in the egg and the cheese. Toss vigorously for several minutes until the sauce thickens and coats the pasta. Serve with a little extra cheese and the basil on top.

Man, you got some pretty good comments. I too had no idea what was being said in the first one, LOL. Thanks for hosting!
We love, love, love carbonara. I have a go to recipe that I make every few months (since it is so rich and hearty) but I am going to have to try this one next!
Oh and I totally agree, spammers to my email box and blog ARE so annoying! I mean, do they really think that anyone is really going to pay attention and read them? I did get a chuckle out of them though!
haha those spam comment's are so funny!
I got one once that said "By the hammer of Thor, this is a good post!" and i almost wanted to keep it 😀
That carbonara looks completely delicious you've got me craving pasta now…
I am cracking up because I was JUST READING all my spam comments. They are seriously hilarious. My newest favorite is :
"I dugg some of you post as I cogitated they were handy invaluable"
Um, excuse me? You dugg what? Cogitating occurred? Please explain.
on another note, that pasta just won my heart.
This recipe looks great!
Um, wow?!! I love the spam comments – I can't believe you get this stuff – how annoying!
LOL, love this! I have a Spam comment waiting for me that I haven't read yet, but I can just imagine. What's also good for a laugh is checking your stats and finding out just how people found your blog. My favourite one is "cinnamon buns that taste like melted plastic". Someone put that into Google and my blog came up, lol. I don't know whether to laugh or be insulted. Anyway, Rachael makes the best pasta dishes, doesn't she? I've never made carbonara before but this is the perfect dish to try it. Thanks for hosting Deborah and have a great weekend! Oh, I've submitted two recipes from last month. Thanks!
those are too funny. At least they made for an amusing blog post! None of them ever get through on mine and I'm pretty sure I have no idea what the point is!
I love carbonara and I bet the lemon really cuts the richness!
That was a lot of fun- you had me laughing right out loud, especially on the one wanting to know why a lot of stores have the name "banana." Hey, if you find out, please let the rest of us know, as I'm sure we're just dying to find out the answer! Too funny. Thanks for the laughs.
What great spam!
Pasta looks wonderful! Carbonara is so good, the addition of lemon sounds incredible.
LOL@ those spams….
Your carbonara looks lipsmackingly good! I love the addition of citrus zest.
haha oh my! What strange spam you've received! This pasta dish sounds so yummy!
I don't mind the "bad" spam where, by reading a sentence or two, you can clearly see that it's spam. It's the ones that actually make sense "Loved the way you used strawberry's in this French Toast dish" but you can tell by their website link that it's spam for Viagra, Ugg Boots etc. Sneaky little spammers.
HEHEHE. I think you have better spammers than me. At least they make for a fun read. And that carbonara – yum. I can't wait to give it try. You can never go wrong with pasta.

Article: Activation of the D1 receptors inhibits the long-term potentiation in vivo induced by acute morphine administration through a D1-GluN2A interaction in the nucleus accumbens[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Dopamine D1-like receptors can modulate glutamate-mediated excitatory synaptic neurotransmission, but the underlying molecular mechanism remains elusive. Here, we report that acute in-vivo morphine administration induces the long-term potentiation (Mor-LTP) of field excitatory postsynaptic potentials at the prefrontal cortex-to-nucleus accumbens shell synapses, and this process requires the activation of GluN2A-containing N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors. This Mor-LTP is completely inhibited by the D1-like receptor agonist SKF81297, but not by the D2-like receptor agonist quinpirole. SKF81297-inhibited Mor-LTP is restored by pretreatment with the TAT-conjugated interfering peptide TAT-D1-t3, which is a synthetic blocker of the direct D1-GluN2A receptor interaction. These results indicate that the activation of D1 receptors modulates Mor-LTP by the direct D1-GluN2A interaction at the prefrontal cortex-to-nucleus accumbens shell synapses and might play a role in addiction-related plastic alterations.

ABSTRACT: Many receptors, including thermal receptors and mechanical receptors, are only activated by stimuli within a clearly defined range of intensities. Differences in the receptive ranges enable individual receptors and their sensory centers to precisely detect the intensity of the stimulus and changes in intensity. Baroreceptors are the sensory terminals of the baroreflex. It is well understood that an increasing number of baroreceptors are recruited to produce afferent action potentials as the blood pressure increases, indicating that individual baroreceptors have different pressure thresholds. The present study revealed that individual baroreceptors could stop their afferent signals when the blood pressure exceeds a certain level, indicating that individual baroreceptors are sensitive to a specific range of blood pressure. The receptive ranges of individual baroreceptors differ in terms of the total range, the lower threshold, and the upper threshold. Of 85 baroreceptors examined in this study, the upper thresholds for about half were within the physiological blood pressure range. These results indicate that supraphysiological blood pressure is unlikely to be encoded by the recruitment of more baroreceptors. Instead, supraphysiological blood pressure levels might be signaled by an increase in the frequency of action potentials or by other mechanisms. In conclusion, our results indicate that rabbit baroreceptors are activated by blood pressure levels within specific receptive ranges. These findings should encourage further studies to examine the role of population coding of blood pressure by baroreceptors in the baroreflex.
Article: Effects of morphine withdrawal on the membrane properties of medium spiny neurons in the nucleus accumbens shell[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Medium spiny neurons (MSNs) in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) undergo persistent alterations in their biological and physiological characteristics upon exposure to drugs of abuse. Previous studies demonstrated that the biochemical, morphological, and intrinsic physiological properties of MSNs are heterogeneous and provided new insights into the physiological and molecular roles of individual MSNs in addictive behaviors. However, it remains unclear whether MSNs in the NAc shell (NAcSh), an important region for mediating behavioral sensitization, are electrophysiologically heterogeneous and how such heterogeneity is relevant to neuroadaptation associated with drug addiction. Here, the membrane properties, i.e., the intrinsic excitability and spike adaptation, of MSNs in the NAcSh from saline- or morphine-treated rats were investigated in vitro by whole-cell recording. In saline-treated rats, three distinct cell types were identified by their membrane properties: type I neurons showed high levels of intrinsic excitability and rapid spike adaptation; type II neurons showed moderate levels of intrinsic excitability and relatively slow spike frequency adaptation; type III neurons showed low levels of intrinsic excitability and putative strong spike adaptation. MSNs in rats undergoing withdrawal from chronic morphine treatment (10-14 days after the last injection) also exhibited the typical firing behaviors of these three types of neurons. However, the membrane properties of the MSNs were differentially altered after withdrawal. There was an enhancement in intrinsic excitability in type II MSNs and a promotion of spike adaptation in type I MSNs. The apamin-sensitive afterhyperpolarization current (I(AHP)) and the apamin-insensitive I(AHP) of the NAcSh MSNs were attenuated after chronic morphine withdrawal. These findings suggest that individual MSNs in the NAcSh manifest unique electrophysiological properties, which might contribute to psychostimulant-induced neuroadaptation.
Article: Potentiation of synaptic strength and intrinsic excitability in the nucleus accumbens after 10 days of morphine withdrawal[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Neuroadaptations in the nucleus accumbens (NAc) are associated with the development of drug addiction. Plasticity in synaptic strength and intrinsic excitability of NAc medium spiny neurons (MSNs) play critical roles in addiction induced by different classes of abused drugs. However, it is unknown whether morphine exposure influences synaptic strength, intrinsic excitability or both in NAc. Here we show that chronic withdrawal (10 days after the last injection) from repeated morphine exposure elicited potentiation in both glutamatergic synaptic strength and intrinsic excitability of MSNs in NAc shell (NAcSh). The potentiation of synaptic strength was demonstrated by an increase in the frequency of miniature excitatory postsynaptic currents (mEPSCs), a decrease in the paired-pulse ratio (PPR), and an increase in the ratio of α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-isoxazole propionic acid receptors (AMPAR)- to N-methyl-D-aspartate receptors (NMDAR)-mediated currents. The potentiation of intrinsic excitability was mediated by inhibition of the sustained potassium currents via extrasynaptic NMDAR activation. The function of the presynaptic group II metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR2/3) was downregulated, enhancing the probability of glutamate release on synaptic terminals during chronic morphine withdrawal. Pretreatment with the mGluR2/3 agonist LY379268 completely blocked potentiation of both synaptic strength and intrinsic excitability. These results suggest that chronic morphine withdrawal downregulates mGluR2/3 to induce potentiation of MSN glutamatergic synapse via increased glutamate release, leading to potentiation of intrinsic excitability. Such potentiation of both synaptic strength and intrinsic excitability might contribute to neuroadaptations induced by morphine application.

Dries Van Noten Spring 2011
Dries Van Noten's Spring 2011 collection was mere beauty flowing at the seams. The looks were day and nighttime with an easy accessibility for the stylish woman who wants a sense of comfort. He was constant in his colour choices, and the palette from his earlier collection continued with bright pollenesque yellows, and plum purples on white, and eggplant backgrounds. Accents of small glitz were also prevalent, yet, not as much as the beautifully painted floral prints.

The Deep Cuts
Mark Fast's showed an edgy cut-out Spring 2011 collection for London Fashion Week. Yes, this is the same designer who used plus-sized models of 14 and even size 16 on the runway in his past Fashion week show --- we love that! Fast's unconventional ways are what sets him apart from many; he continued his signature of form fitting and unique aesthetics throughout the line. The body hugging looks included vibrant hues, perforated detailing, paired with fringe materials and platforms that emanated a runway showgirl feeling in a Ready-To-Wear way. Some of these looks were those you could definitely see a few highly confident celebs wearing, of course!photos: Wireimage, Getty, LFW

A few trends for now, New product for later
Now, that your eyes have stopped jumping from viewing infinite runway shows, you know that for next season we will see a more defined eyebrow, the clean and kissable, or coral and rouge lips, and quite possibly a nostalgic hair-do on many women. (Thanks to the fashion sound waves, and trends of tomorrow)!
Check out what's going to be the latest in make-up land for Fall/Winter 2010, and 2011! Here are few small bits to get...
Le Crayon Sourcils Precision Brow Definer
Chanel, need I say more?
From MAC:
Face=Ochre Studio Finish Skin Corrector
Lips=Supremely Confident Sheen Supreme Lipstick
Eyes=Center Stage Mega Metal Shadow
* I don't usually buy MAC makeup anymore; although, I do hope to find a few new radiant colours for the season, in my fav, eye shadows! :)
Vivid Eyes!
One of my favourite's: Smashbox's DNA lash mascara. This gets an enormous thumbs up!
Hair: volumes, braids, messy, chignon, and sleek pony's...
A fav was Jason Wu's wrapped braided styles.

Kiss the Earth, Fashion
There were touches of gold throughout the line giving you a feeling of royal ease in daylight, and confidence as you kept your eyes wide open with anticipation for the next exhibit. And all done with hopes that you would not miss anything from a slight blink.
The Mulleavy sisters definitely know what they're doing, and in the proper dosage. For example, the juxtaposition of diverse fabric-overlapping layers, certain slits and how far out, say, a waistband even should be—creating statues of wearable art.
There were many pieces to love from this collection. Though, my favourites were the brown leather embossed jacket paired with a turtleneck, and the almost Roman Centurion-esque dresses with a mosaic-scaly texture, which was a hybrid of a cocktail dress and modern garb for daily battle. Some other ensembles included peplums, wood printed motifs and cut-out treatments that were still feminine and also wearable.
Here are my top picks from the collection:

Elise Øverland Spring 2011
Is it me or does this season's models on the runway seem to be a tad mediocre. Perhaps, most of the lovelies are only gracing the stages of selected designer's, yes?
Here's the latest from Elise Øverland's Spring RTW 2011 collection, which consisted of vivid hues in electrified blues, chartreuse, and black & white combos. These colours of course, were eye-catching but, to me the overall collection didn't seem amazing. Øverland managed to bring back the lantern sleeve in solid frocks, and showcased colour blocked ensembles, and mod silhouettes reminiscent of the 60's. Oh, did I mention the edgy violinist gracing the runway, wearing a tiered skirt and cobalt top? I'm sure that it all makes sense to those of us who actually attended.--- The A-list crowd seemed pleased, I think!
favourite item(s): the tiered/layered pieces.
Casual Tuning & Kitchen-Sink Chic
A few snapshots from Band of Outsiders, Edun, Rachel Comey, and Z spoke runway looks for Spring 2011. Some shots were everything and the kitchen sink, others were calm, sheer and PJ-casual street chic!
More to come from NYFW...

2015 Practice Schedule
Monday through Thursday beginning Monday, May 11, 2015
13 & Over
3:4 5- 4:45
4:45 - 5:45
Speedy Sixers
Children six and under need to demonstrate that they can swim one length of the pool to be eligible to participate in team events. Speedy Sixers will begin regular practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays beginning on May 26th.
Although the preseason swim times are short, the MH coaches suggests that this is key conditioning time, before we get into our competitive season. All swimmers are encouraged to get started right from the first practice!
Summer Season Practice Times
Monday through Friday beginning Wednesday, June 18, 2015
13 and Over
10 & under
Some changes in these times may be necessary depending on the number of swimmers in each age group. It is our goal that swimmers practice with their age group to build relay experience and camaraderie. Additional stroke development can be obtained by scheduling group, semi-private or private lessons with the coaching staff. Sign up for these lessons in the pool office. Marine Hill's coaches encourage consistent practice attendance, positive attitudes and good work ethic.
If you would like your child to have additional help with strokes we encourage your child to enroll in Swim Team Prep Lessons that follow practice and are held concurrently with other swim lessons. Please see the office for availability, times and enrollment dates. We typically have 4-5 sessions throughout the summer and they run Monday through Friday.

About Me
Located across from the eastern edge of the Atlantic Yards development, Tygershark will be the latest addition to a vibrant stretch of Vanderbilt Avenue in the Prospect Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn. Tall, airy ceiling heights have been retained at the coffee bar storefront and group dining room toward the rear, while a lower, wood-lined dining space creates an informal experience open to the activity of the stainless steel kitchen. Exposed concrete, plywood, reclaimed wood beams and stainless steel give the space a refined yet raw and informal feel. Project by Swis Loc Architecture
Front Cutaway
Plan Cutaway
MIT Incubator
This comprehensive design studio was separated into two parts, the first of which we developed a flexible structural system/prototype, and the second part where we integrated it into a building and site, which was located over an existing one story bank and the the Kendall MBTA stop on the Red Line. Our prototype consisted of a three-story glue-laminated truss supported by two concrete piers, acting as a programmable covered bridge. When adapted to the site, the glulam truss became think tank/flex office space for local start-up companies, while one of the piers became the new Kendall stop and the other a reuse/renovation of the existing bank building to hold small retail, cafe, gallery, and MIT classroom space. To further integrate the public into the building, a gently sloping green roof bows down to grade level to provide gathering space as well as bring people up into the gallery where work from the startup companies is on display.

Vertical Village
The city of Boston, largely a commuter city where people work downtown during the day and flee to their suburban retreats after is in need of new and innovative ways to draw people back into living in urban communities like during pre-'white flight' urbanism. This solution draws upon the collective nature of the suburban neighborhood and its experiential qualities and combines it with the urban vitality of the city to create a series of vertically stacked 'villages', each having its own distinct character, unit layout and aggregation that provide a platform for a collective society as well providing residents with a sense of individualism that is quite often lost in most dense urban communities.

Urban Lens
The city of Worcester has a vast number of institutions of higher education within the city limits,but none of them have a large presence in the City Center/downtown area. The objective was to create an "Urban Incubator" consisting of community center-type programmatic demands. This "hybrid" building was to fuse together the notion of public and private realms in a way that encouraged cross-disciplinary, unexpected and informal interactions. These unexpected interactions and informal conversations are the generators of some of the most innovative idea. The solution is arrived at through inflections on two opposing sides of the building, one adjacent to a park and one to an urban square, this new Urban Incubator accepts and embraces its surrounding urban spaces. The building is conceived as a lens for one to see the city through from the inside, as well as the city to see the innovative work occuring within the perforated steel mesh that wraps the exterior. The programmatic distribution and continuous exhibiton/shared lobbies allow the building to act as a microcosm of a city with its own urban networks, always having the city itself as a backdrop.

In August 2010 I started a making a new mod about Warsaw Uprising which took place in September 1944. You can judge outcome by yourself. This mod provides one new, long end quite difficult single player mission and multiplayer also with two playable nations: Germans and Polish insurgents. Both sides have an infantry and armored vehicle too. I borrowed Hetzer and some weapon physics from BTRH.
Fully translated version 1.1 It contains 1 new single player mission, makes it possible to play multiplayer matches with two playable nations: Germans and Polish insurgents. Have fun!

Q: Research?
How much research do you put into purchasing a product? I usually like to look up user reviews and YouTube review videos.
4 Comments
I don't care for youtube reviews much.
For electronics, I usually take into account Newegg reviews. For some items, Amazon reviews. And for more specialty items, I try to find blogs or magazines that specialize in evaluating that product (like higher end audio gear). Many products I go based on brand, you usually get what you pay for is largely true.
Just remember this:
maven3 (rep: 5.23k) posted Sep 04, 2012
|depends on what i'm purchasing..but i'll tend to look up reviews and price comparisons before purchasing bigger items.
nimrodboy3 (rep: 68k) posted Sep 04, 2012
|I also refer to online reviews on Amazon & Newegg whenever available, even for something cheap. Sometimes there's a very good reason why they practically can't give an item away, making it not even worth a few bucks. I also use professional review sites, like steves-digicams.com, when I'm looking for a camera. I generally can't stand youtube or other user-submitted video reviews. They're almost universally long-winded, rambling, and just not to the point. Umm, well at least this is to the point!

Frosted Peanut Butter Bars Recipe
These sweet, chewy peanut butter bars are a great no-fuss treat to bring to a potluck or bake sale. A drizzle of chocolate on top makes for a pretty presentation. —Sharon Smith, Muskegon, Michigan
