BY GRANT McCOOL and MARTHA GRAYBOW
NEW YORK – Disgraced financier Bernard Madoff heard scorn from his victims on Monday at a sentencing hearing at which he will learn his punishment for running Wall Street's biggest and most brazen investment fraud.
Emotional victims asked Judge Denny Chin to impose the maximum sentence of 150 years, an effective life term for the 71-year-old Madoff.
"How could somebody do this to us? How could this be real? We did nothing wrong," said Dominic Ambrosino, a retired New York City corrections officer. "We will have to sell our home and hope to survive on Social Security alone."
Madoff, seated next to his lawyers, lowered his eyes as his victims told their stories of financial ruin.
"May your jail cell be your coffin," Michael Schwartz told Madoff.
"You have left your children with a legacy of shame," said Tom FitzMaurice, 63, calling Madoff "an evil low-life."
"He has shown no remorse … His crime was premeditated and calculated. He was planning to scam investors days before his arrest. If he could, he would still be stealing from investors," FitzMaurice said.
"He cheated investors out of money so that he had his wife Ruth and two sons could live a life of luxury," he said.
The confessed swindler, who pleaded guilty to a slew of crimes in the same court in March, will "speak to the shame he has felt and to the pain he has caused," said his lawyer, Ira Lee Sorkin. In a letter Judge Chin on Sunday, Sorkin argued for a sentence less than the life term requested by U.S. prosecutors.
He disputed the size of the loss to investors, saying it "does not appear to rise to the historic proportions that the government has maintained." But Sorkin added that he did not "seek to minimize the magnitude of the crimes to which Mr Madoff pled guilty."
Madoff confessed to running a multibillion-dollar "Ponzi scheme" in which investors were paid returns from money paid by later investors.
Investigators do not know how much was stolen, according to court papers. Prosecutors say $170 billion flowed through the principal Madoff account over decades, and that weeks before the financier's December arrest the firm's statements showed a total of $65 billion in accounts.
The trustee winding down the Madoff firm has so far collected $1.2 billion to return to investors.
"Given the enormous amount of funds he has stolen and the number of victims, the sentence is going to be very, very high," said Paul Radvany, a law professor at Fordham University in New York and a former federal prosecutor.
Madoff's brother, Peter, and his sons, Mark and Andrew, held executive positions in the brokerage unit of Madoff's firm. Their lawyers say they were not aware of or involved in the crooked asset management side.
The judge allowed Madoff, a former nonexecutive chairman of the Nasdaq stock market, to wear his own clothes at the sentencing hearing, instead of the loose-fitting uniform issued by the jail where he has been held since March 12. He wore a dark business suit.
Madoff has said all along that he committed the fraud on his own. He has not named any accomplices. The only other person charged is his outside accountant.
Michael Shapiro, a lawyer at law firm Carter Ledyard and Milburn LLP, said he expects a prison sentence of 30 years, based on previous sentences for large frauds in the same court.
He cited the case of former WorldCom Chief Executive Bernard Ebbers, who is serving 25 years for accounting fraud in a low-security prison. WorldCom said the fraud amounted to $11 billion.
"The individual damage that Madoff caused is probably much greater," Shapiro said. "Thirty years is effectively a life sentence and also takes into account he didn't kill anybody."
Madoff will serve his time in a low- or medium-security prison, depending on the length of his incarceration.
The case is USA v Madoff 09-213 in U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (Manhattan)

We come to literature or of certain books in strange ways, sometimes circuitous, often by chance but how we get 'there' is of less importance than the experience we have inside of the interior worlds that our favorite books evoke. I often pick up a book when I've read that a particular book or author has some sort of relationship to a favorite author of mine. Usually the relationship is only tangential and often what the writers have in common is less about stylistic similarities than the sort of common themes, concerns and tones that are explored. The name of W.G. Sebald always seems to pop up in reviews, essays or on lists of great writers. Though I have not read any of his transgressive, category-less books, I recently stumbled across a documentary film that maps out his work and discusses his artistic contributions to literature. Both fascinating as a biographical introduction and as a documentary film that explores Sebald's book The Rings of Saturn, Patience: After Sebald, has now intensified my interest in his highly praised books.

When I have used google maps in the past I have had to do the gather and stitch method which is indeed very time consuming. One must be careful though as google does watermark its map images very faintly.
Every time i try to do a historical map i find it hard to find a good base map to work on. Yesterday i found this web site where you can use Google maps images.
Photoshop overlay for Google Maps
Site is really good and useful but doesnt work for me because in order to see smaller rivers and settlements you need to zoom a lot thus making the map image very small scale and i have no time taking few images and putting them together as a puzzle.
Does anyone know any other way to get good HD real world regional maps (specifically Drina river - Balkans) on Google maps or somewhere else?
When I have used google maps in the past I have had to do the gather and stitch method which is indeed very time consuming. One must be careful though as google does watermark its map images very faintly.
Finished Maps: Skenth - Prints Available!
Works in Progress: Arinthia - region of Skenth
Need something commissioned? Send me a message!
Do you know any other place where i can get good base maps? Basically i need map with detail rivers network to help me place settlements.
Open Street Map
Natural Earth (Requires some special software though)
A National Mapping Agency (Ordnance Survey, NRCan, USGS, etc)
Also, "small scale" is "zoomed out a lot" in cartography jargon, "large scale" is much less zoomed out.
1/10,000,000 is a much smaller number than 1/10,000. It's those actual scale factors that cartographers are talking about when they say a scale is large or small. The area covered by a map is the "extent".
You also need to be very aware of licenses. Natural earth, and some of the material produced by some mapping agencies (like the USGS) are public domain. Others are provided under varying licenses which may or may not be usable to you. That includes Google Maps; you can't just trace it and do whatever you want.
I found good Austro-Hungarian topographic maps on this site (its over 100 years old and free to use )
III. katonai felmeres
But map for area i need is good but i need something a little more extended to the west than it is on this map.
I tried to combine two maps one next to another but they are badly scanned and im not skilled enough to do that.
You might be able to use Natural Earth maps. They have vector and raster (pixel) versions, and the raster maps come at three detail levels. You'll also need a projection changer if you don't have one already, like G.Projector.
Ok thanks for links Lingen, and no i dont have projection changer. And sorry for a dum question but I just didnt figure out what do i have to download from Natural Earth site to get map ???
I found this map that might work as a basemap for your project:
If that's not the exact right area, there is a clickable index map that you could use to find the right quad here:
Western Europe AMS Index Map - Perry-Castañeda Map Collection - UT Library Online
I still think that the simplest thing to do is to take Printscreens and paste them in photoshop. Maybe it's because I like puzzles

Songs recorded under The Weeknd name first leaked in late 2010, though the identity of the individual behind the project was initially unknown. The Weeknd released a nine-song free album, House of Balloons, on 21 March 2011. This album is a part of a trilogy which includes Thursday, released on 18 August 2011, and Echoes of Silence, released on 21 December 2011. The song "High for This" was featured in the promo for the final season of the HBO show Entourage On June 16, 2011, House of Balloons was named as a longlisted nominee for the 2011 Polaris Music Prize. On July 6, the album was named as one of ten shortlisted nominees but eventually lost to Arcade Fire's The Suburbs. On December 21, 2011 at 11:07 p.m. EST Tesfaye released his highly anticipated third album Echoes of Silence. The Weeknd's site crashed shortly after due to the large number of downloads. The Weeknd quickly provided a Hulkshare link to keep the album available while the official site was down.

The impact of new mobile devices such as tablets and smartphones might not altogether remove the need for desktop computers, but it does open up the potential for a really radical shift in how workplaces of the future might look.
For a start, the subtle way that even simple mobile phones increase flexibility in the working environment, even inside its boundary - no one needs to return to their personal desk to make or receive a call. With smart phones and tablets, all forms of communication can be achieved on the move - voice, text or video - and can be 'unified' around a corporate platform or 'social' around a consumer (or perhaps enterprise) platform.
The concept of 'in' and 'out' trays therefore seems a little dated, although most would admit the paperless office is still a distant dream So, does everyone need their own personal desk while in the building?
Since many now have working practices (and technology) that allows them to be productive outside the office environment - at home or out and about mobile - is there a case for revisiting the concept of shared desks to cover for the odd time when someone is in?
This idea of flexible working, hot-desking, or 'hoteling' is not new, but advances in mobile technologies, the ubiquity of wireless networks and the personal appetite for working on the move and seeing the office as a place for occasional use all gives it an extra boost.
So too does the potential for cost saving.
The cost of providing a typical desk in a city like London can easily run to over £10,000 per year, and the average across the UK is almost £6,000. Providing one for every employee, whether they are going to use it all the time or not, starts to look like an unnecessary extravagance, especially if all it is doing for many working hours is acting as a support for a few personal photos, memorabilia from past training courses and a never-inspected pile of (often unnecessary) paperwork.
Despite this, many companies as well as individuals find it difficult to kick the mahogany (or aluminium and chipboard) habit. According to recent research conducted for Vodafone, just over a third of companies had not even considered flexible working to reduce costs, thought reducing desks was 'inappropriate' for their business or thought it would have a negative impact on teamwork.
A lot of the people-related preparatory work for switching to a flexible office can be a bit daunting and de-humanising. Terms such as 'stacking density' do little to boost morale and while most organisations and individuals would like to think they measure success by results rather than time in the office, presentee-ism still prevails and being seen in the office is perceived to have promotional value.
Technology can help with this, especially as so many consumers have been 'converted' to mobile, but it still needs careful management.
First the devices. Now that so many expect to BYOD (Bring Your Own Device) to use at work, there are more types of devices to deal with, all with different and personal applications. User expectations are high, but still the organisation needs to secure its assets, especially data. Controls, policies and procedures need to be applied and although user education has to be at the heart of it, automated management controls are vital to avoid costs spiralling, otherwise everyone might as well be given a desk.
Next come the networks. Most organisations have an infrastructure designed around people sat in fixed and known locations, and even desk swapping raises issues - "that's my PC!" or "why can't this phone ring with my incoming calls?". Wireless networks, where they are present, are often oriented around laptops. So connectivity may be available in the places where people can sit and 'de-camp', but there may be insufficient coverage and capacity to deal with lower powered radios in devices such as most smartphones AND tablets.
The network capacity will also need to be increased, but also in a flexible, dynamic and automated way. Increased use of video and 'chatty', more social collaboration - good for bringing diverse and dispersed teams closer together - impacts on the network, especially if users are mobile and video usage is ad hoc and unpredictable.
In a flexible office, even the traditional desktop (yes, they're unlikely to disappear completely just yet) is affected. The network needs to be able to cope with delivering services to different users in different places at different times. User authentication and delivery of their services to the spot they're currently occupying requires sophisticated and predictable management.
The working world may be coming much more mobile, but in the flexible office one thing is still fixed - the need to manage everything as simply, seamlessly and automatically as possible.

Speaker Anne Makinda yesterday gave Arusha Urban MP Godbless Lema (Chadema) five days to substantiate charges that the Prime Minister lied to parliament when explaining the recent killings in Arusha.
The opposition legislator is obliged to submit evidence on February 14, this year, failure of which disciplinary measures will be taken against him.
The Speaker's directive came after the MP sought clarification on Parliamentary procedures to penalise a senior government leader like the Prime Minister in case he told lies in Parliament.
His request came shortly after the PM had answered a question by the leader of the Opposition, Freeman Mbowe, who wanted the PM to explain the Arusha killings after Chadema staged a peaceful demonstration to protect the highly disputed Arusha mayoral election.
"Honourable Speaker, I want to know Parliamentary procedures that may be used against a person of high integrity like the Prime Minister if proved that he has lied in Parliament," Lema said when referring to PM's clarification on the Arusha saga.
The MP's request angered
From Page 1
the Speaker, who responded: "Regarding procedure! Can you, please, sit down? There seems to be no discipline anymore in this House!" she remarked.
She asked the legislator to submit evidence to prove his statement that the PM lied in the Parliament.
Later, Lema told reporters outside the House that he would present the evidence to support his statement, as demanded by the Speaker.
"I am not a child…I am a grown up person…I have no fear. People have to fight for their rights," he said, giving examples of globally-recognised freedom fighters such as former South African President Nelson Mandela, who was very instrumental in the political liberation of his country and the entire African continent.
Earlier, Mbowe blamed the government for remaining mum on the Arusha and Mbarali killings by police.
Pinda said the government had been very keen on the Arusha case, saying: "Don't rush to the conclusion that the government has been mum before understanding the root causes of the problem," he explained.
Meanwhile, Pinda yesterday told MPs that they were not bound to approve every budget estimates presented in the House, but should instead scrutinise and be satisfied that they benefited the nation. He was responding to Kisesa MP Luhanga Mpina (CCM), who blamed the government for massive waste of public funds.
According to the MP, at least 35 per cent of the government budget was spent on seminars, workshops and allowances, leaving poor Tanzanians suffering from lack of social services.
"Has the government any plans of reducing such unnecessary expenditure and instead channel the resources to productive and people-focused development projects?" the legislator asked.
The Premier said it was the duty of MPs to scrutinise the budget estimates tabled in the House closely before endorsing them.
"It is up to MPs to make sure you pin down the government and ministries on budget estimates. You have to scrutinise them and see if they have any significant contributions to the national development," he said, adding: "Do not approve unnecessary expenditures."

Anyway, yeah, It's literally amazing that you lasted this long, Sarah. I would have flipped out a long time ago. Onward and upward to better things, eh? Hopefully things that don't involve regular death threats.
Much props for your ridiculously long and effective service.
p.s. I hope the band gave you a gold watch with Offspringish artwork on it.

I did it all for the lulz.
Thank you for being such a great-super mod. Sorry for all of my trolling and other stuff. All the best my dearest sweet Sarah <3
Wow, this is so sad! i know this thread has been up for a while so sorry for the lateness. I never got to know ya too well but as the others have said, we've all noticed your greatness as a mod, as well as a fan. I hope you enjoy retirement! I still remember well over ten years ago, on the old BBS and our food fight thread....ahh, how young we all were. cheers to you m'lady!
Thanks for bumping this thread just to say that, Maria! You never fail to amaze me with the incredible depths of your maturity. And also, fuck off already!
Freakess, holy shit. I smirked in recognition of the food fight thread, then remembered how long ago that was, and now I feel closer to actual retirement age. Thanks for the memories!

Haha, you emailed Maria to come back, find the thread, and be a shit, didn't you? Considering you both have similar obsessive tendencies, your friendship makes sense.
Fun Fact: Last year, LM1565's New Year's Resolution was to get in 20% less arguments. After averaging only 22 arguments a week for a few months, she deemed it a successful New Year's Resolution.
Fun Fact Number 2: When someone argues with 1565 and forces her to admit she was wrong, she goes reclusive for a couple weeks and stays in her room obsessing over ways she could have won the argument- like Howard Hughes style.

Don't let the number of Shimano's XT front derailleur options scare you. Really there are only two types -- top swing and bottom swing. This XT Direct Mount Triple Front Derailleur FD-M781D is a high direct/bottom swing type. The direct mount design is easier to install and has a built-in housing stop for foolproof cable routing. This minimizes exposed wire and therefore minimizes contamination that could affect your shifting performance.
This XT Direct Mount Front Derailleur is identical to the clamp-on FD-M781 derailleur, save for the lack of a clamp. Instead this one has a flat inboard surface with an upright rib that corresponds to the groove in the flat Direct Mount you'll find on your seat tube. One bolt holds it all together and your only adjustment will be up and down in relation to the chainrings. Since there's no way to twist the derailleur around the seat tube, it goes on lined up perfectly with the chainrings and your shifting should be spot on once the cable tension and limit screws are set. The limit screws are angled outward to facilitate adjustment for convoluted rear suspension designs as well.
The Shimano XT Direct Mount Triple Front Derailleur FD-M781D is specifically designed for use with Dyna-Sys 24/32/42t triple cranksets and XT 10-speed chains. The cage radius and plate shapes will optimize the shifting performance. The maximum chainring size is 42 teeth.

Dozens of North Carolina coastal fishermen are making their voices heard on legislation that would essentially prevent commercial boats from catching and selling three fish species.
Commercial operators outnumbered recreational fishermen in the number of speakers Monday at a public hearing at the legislature about the House measure to designate red drum, spotted sea trout and striped bass as game fish. That means they could only be caught by hook-and-line fishermen.
Bill supporters say the proposal would revive fish stocks and generate coastal recreational fishing tourism and jobs.
Commercial fishermen argue it would destroy their businesses and way of life.
David Jarvis of Hubert says the three fish comprise 20 percent of his fishing income.
The bill provides money to help harmed commercial fishermen and manage commercial fish stocks.

A starbase is generally defined as a heavily-armed, heavily-defended facility used by spacefaring cultures at which both military and civilian spacecraft may be repaired and resupplied.
Starbases may be a deep space structure like K-7 or DS9, an orbital facility such as Starbase 1 (aka Earth Spacedock), a planetary surface facility, or a combination of both planetary surface and orbital structure(s) such as Starbase 11.
Starbases are often the hubs of activity within their assigned sectors. They act as:
- Trading posts and way stations for civilian transports
- Military garrison facilities, coordinating military starship operations and support
- Diplomatic, governmental, medical and legal services for both military and civilian personnel
- Scientific and Medical research centers
In many ways starbases are analogous to the forts, fortresses, and castles used on Earth during various period of its history.
Command and control
Within the United Federation of Planets most starbases are Starfleet facilities and commanded by a flag officer (commodore or an admiral grade), but depending on the primary function of the facility such as commerce or cargo transfer as was the case with Deep Space Station K-7, they can be under civilian authority as well.
Assigned and/or Support Craft
Depending on their size and primary function, the number of assigned and support craft would vary greatly. Almost all starbases carry a contingent of Auxiliary Craft such as Cargo management units (CMU or WorkBee), shuttlecraft or Runabouts.
The use of starbases were proposed to Earth Starfleet as early as 2154. In this year, the NX-01 Enterprise was sent to scout for suitable planets on which starbases could be built. Among the potential candidates was the seventh planet of the Berengaria system. (ENT: "Bound")
The term "starbase" should not be confused with the term "space station", as not all starbases are space stations, nor are all space stations starbases. For example, an orbital dry dock gantry is a space station but not a starbase. Jupiter Station and the Regula I could be considered space stations but not starbases due to their primary functions as research facilities.

Why don't you hunt down some historical cities with the population density (100K) that your after. This should give you a good starting point of land mass required and the transportation layout.
Hi all,
I'm actually trying to draw a city map, a big city with about 100,000 inhabitants. But... I'm not sure what is the best way to do this.
If I figure every house and building, the map shall be... more than huge, I guess. Don't know if this is a good idea.
But how could I figure less than every house ? Only display districts and important buildings such as keeps, temples and so on ?
Another question would be : how dense the road net should be ? I saw straight-lined roads on some maps, and twisting on others. Maybe a mix of both, for such a large city ? Large and straight roads in importants districts (governement, noblemen...) and twisting for the others ?
Thank you for your advices !
Why don't you hunt down some historical cities with the population density (100K) that your after. This should give you a good starting point of land mass required and the transportation layout.
Some things to consider when determining the road and street layout of a city are:
1) The geography of the site. Is it a flat valley floor or is it hilly? Flat terrain is more likely (but not necessarily) to have a grid layout. Rich people usually live in the hills, and the roads are curvy there.
2) The history of the city. Is it an old city? It's more likely to have curvy, narrow streets. Newer cities would have been planned with cars and freeways in mind and therefore would have a network for people to drive in and out of suburbs.
3) Are there important or historic buildings there? A cathedral? A stadium? A crowded downtown area? A shopping district? Those are going to have major roads leading to them.
4) Is there a main thoroughfare like 5th Ave. in New York or Market Street in San Francisco? Major roads are going to provide access by way of linking directly or indirectly to it.
thank you for your answers !
1) an almost flat terrain (some minor variations but nothing important)
2) the city is only twenty-five years old, it has been specifically built to become the capital of the country
3) there are important buildings such as temples for many deities, a palace for the emperor, and even a stadium (like the coliseum in Rome)
4) there may be important roads like the 5th avenue, I guess the one that crosses the whole city for example.
Thank you one again !
Also, Washington D.C. in the United States was a planned capital city and built very rapidly. It isn't in a desert, but its layout may give you some ideas. Look for 18th century maps; it had a population of over 100,000 by 1870.
Planned Capital Cities | Museum of the City has some excellent links to some of the delightfully disastrous planned capital cities.
The technology level of your city will have an impact on the city layout. A modern city will likely have relatively a hidden water supply and sewage systems combined with fairly prominent gardens/parks. Pre-industrial cities are more likely to have prominent aqueducts and likely open sewers with private gardens more likely than public. Pay special attention to the cultural heart of your city: Roman cities were built around the forum and its attendant temples/public buildings, while medieval cities wer emore likely built around a lord's castle and market.
An important part of any city will be the slums. Lots and lots of slums, with their fetid lifestyles and regular fires.
A medieval city, in the desert, built as a planned national capital? you don't have too many historic examples to choose from, if that's the brief.
Here are some pointers:
You should know the terrain. You say it is mostly flat - how flat? where are the bumps? how big are those bumps?
This is a desert. Where do people get their water from? Is there an aquifer beneath the sand, so they can build wells? Is the city located near an oasis or a river? I've heard that in the deserts of western Peru in pre-Columbian times, people would set up nets to catch the dew that blew in off the Pacific Ocean - so if you're coastal you can get a small amount of water that way (although definitely not enough for 100,000)
Next question: do you know why this site has been chosen for the city? If you are the leader of a nation, you are going to be extremely reluctant to site your brand new capital somewhere so inhospitable, unless you have a very good reason (eg. defence, cultural beliefs, keeping control over your subjects). Furthermore, historically it is rare for a nation to emerge in a desert environment. A quick scan of Wikipedia reveals that the Arabian peninsula, the religious heart of Islam, became politically peripheral - the capital cities were Baghdad, Cairo, Damascus; much more favourable climates.
Remember, your city - no matter how important it is - needs to provide water and food to its citizens, be capable of attracting more people to live in it (being the centre of political power will bring a lot of people, but what other reasons do people have to settle here - will they have jobs? will they have security? if importing food is expensive, the cost of living is going to be high, so you want to be pretty sure you can find a decent wage before moving to the new city), have access to building materials (think how hard and expensive it is to get timber and stone into the desert, for example), not to mention dealing with the heat of the day. You also don't want your national capital to be too far from anything else - if a rebellion breaks out in some province, you might receive word too late to stop it.
Of course, it's your world, and you are welcome to ignore all those questions. They can just bring everything they need by magic, if that's what you choose. Or there can be more realistic explanations (like Egypt, which had the Nile to provide water, food, transport of building materials, communications etc.). It's up to you.
So, assuming you proceed with the city as you suggest, what should it look like?
You definitely don't need to render every house. Medieval cities rarely, if ever, had free-standing houses and buildings. More often than not, you'd share at least one wall with your neighbour. There's nothing particularly modern about apartment buildings, either. The Roman insulae, for example, was basically just an apartment block. Of course, tall buildings need to be light, so you're getting back into the area of building materials. I started a map a while back that tried to represent the way different buildings would get packed together. The post is here: http://www.cartographersguild.com/to...sque-city.html.
As for important buildings, Waldronate is right - cities are often clustered around areas of power - from the sound of it, your city will have a prominent palace. But remember, most of the ordinary people will never have a reason to go to the palace. They'll be more likely to congregate around a plaza/forum (as W. said), a temple or temple complex, or a market. Having said that, your city might not have many of those things visible - who wants to spend their day in the hot desert sun? The markets, forums, plazas will all be roofed or covered up, as in the Isfahan bazaar.
The stadium idea would probably also have some way of sheltering the crowd from the sun, but it can be an impressive public building nonetheless. But do they hold games/fights/tournaments every day? That would get very expensive. It might be an important building, but that doesn't mean people congregate there regularly.
Lastly, the layout of the city and the road network. The idea of big avenues and grand vistas is quite a new one - it was essentially developed during the European baroque (~17th-18th C). The Romans and Chinese (and probably others) also had major avenues, but not for the same reason - the Romans, for example, used them to march soldiers down.
That aside, follow the suggestions that others have made - look at maps and satellite images of cities for inspiration, but be sure what you are looking for. If you want examples of desert cities, look at Egypt, Africa and the Middle East.
If you want planned cities, Waldronate's link is pretty good. My suggestion - steer clear of Washington DC (no offence meant to Washingtonians). Brasilia has an interesting design from the air, but it is much bigger than your city. You could try looking at Palmanova in NE Italy - it's a planned town from the Renaissance era, but it's population is only about 5500.
The best city to look at is Canberra, Australia (yes, I'm biased). I don't think Canberra is very well known internationally, but it is still worth checking out:
- It isn't very large (about 300,000)
- It isn't very old (100 years exactly; although most of the city was only built in the past 50)
- It was planned as a national capital, and has the things you're looking for (avenues, and important buildings)
- It's design is more interesting than a simple grid (sorry again, Washingtonians)
- Canberra may not be in a desert (we're mostly scrub and bushland), but this is a dry continent
- If you look at Canberra, look carefully at the central area - you'll find that there are straight roads, twisty roads, and combinations of the two, which might help you solve that particular problem.
Well, I only meant to give you a couple of tips, but looks like you got more than you bargained for. Hope all of that helps. I'll keep an eye on this post, if you have any more questions/clarifications.
Thank you for your answers ! I wouldn't expect that much
I will try to clarify my ideas, this may really help to understand what I'm looking for...
The world is Dungeons&Dragons, so it is medieval-fantastic, there are magic, deities, monsters and things like this. The capital city, Melandis, has been built on demand from a major deity, and its leaders are tyrannical, most of the inhabitants are poor and oppressed but faith guides them. It is watered (is it the good verb to say that ? crossed by a river ?) by a large river that provides fresh water for enough people, even if that water may not be completely safe to drink. I think in medieval times, this was not much considered...
Economically, the city lives from trade (magical stuff, minerals, slaves, things like that) and has some military importance. Food is mainly carried from minor cities from the empire of Melandis, by boat (along the river) or road (there is a road that crosses the city, too).
There are many temples in the city, as many deities are venerated. Logically, you would find more houses near temples than anywhere else.
I imagine a small, rich quarter surrounded by a inner wall, and within, the palace. Outside, the rest of the city with slums, commercial quarter, river port... and another wall. And outside, some houses... or not ? Would it be logical to build houses outside the city wall, in a desertic area ?
The desert is mostly flat, with sand/small rocks and rock bumps, but those are quite rare (there are none at the city's location). It would look like a reg.
I looked a bit to the Google satellite view of Canberra, I think this would be quite the disposition I am looking for. Maybe a bit less regular (the central circle ? I don't know exactly), but this is great !
Thank you once again for your answers, this helps me a lot
If the outer wall was part of the city's original plan, and the population is greater than what was originally planned for, then it is certain that there will be houses outside the walls. There will probably also be marketplaces, and perhaps warehouses, outside the walls where the roads enter the city. Caravans carrying bulk goods will sell to local merchants here so that large numbers of animals and carts are not clogging the gates and making a mess inside the city. Many local merchants who sell travel supplies and rare local wares will have booths here, as well, to sell to the caravaners and other transients.
If the river provides some farmland, even if it is not enough to support the city, then there will be numerous farm houses running along the river outside the walls.
OK, I see what you mean. To be honest, these are points we never cared about before, as city was "only" for background purpose in roleplaying, but with time, incoherences appeared and drawing the map could be the only solution to fix them, in my opinion.
I guess there will be some buildings outside the gates because of the lack of space... or for convenience.
Thank you !
Last goal : imagine the style of the map... eh !

Comments On Jun 13, 2013:The skull logo on the knees with it being embossed I thought they'd scuff easy. So far they are holding up great. GREAT product. Again other sites wanted 160 for the pants and on here on Rocky Mountain under 50 bucks. LOVE THIS SITE

Comments On May 21, 2013:These riding pants look really good and they fit very well. The graphics are very crisp and straight up cool. Seen very durable and has perfect adjustable strap on the front and both sides. I'm a big guy and these pants fit like they were made for me. They would definitely reduce the road rash if you crash. Metal Mulisha is the best company for the price. They fit great on the legs and it doesn't get to hot in your boots. Great product

Former Daytona Beach pharmacist sentenced to 13 years
Published: Thursday, January 17, 2013 at 9:36 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, January 17, 2013 at 10:05 a.m.
A 42-year-old former pharmacist was sentenced to 13 years in prison for trafficking and possessing prescription drugs, some of which he admitted stealing from the pharmacy where he worked in Daytona Beach, according to authorities.
Michael Christian Lomangino pleaded no contest on Wednesday in Circuit Court in DeLand to four counts of trafficking prescription drugs, first degree felonies, and three counts of possession with intent to sell or deliver prescription drugs, second degree felonies. In addition to the prison time, Lomangino was fined $50,000 and his driver's license was suspended for two years once he is released from state prison, according to a press release from the 7th Circuit State Attorney's Office.
Investigators described Lomangino's home as a "veritable home pharmacy."
Lomangino was arrested in February after law enforcement stopped his truck in DeLand. A canine alerted to narcotics and authorities found 253 prescription pills in his truck. When investigators searched his home they found thousands of prescription pills and a loaded handgun.
In all investigators seized 5,700 pills and $5,000 in cash.
Lomangino admitted to stealing some of the drugs from where he worked, Steve's Pharmacy, 636 Mason Ave., in Daytona Beach.

President Barack Obama, egged on by his three witches – Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations, Susan Rice, and Special Assistant to the President, Samantha Powers – intentionally destabilized the Middle East by meddling in the mis-named Arab Spring with the intent of deposing key U.S. allies, Mubarak of Egypt and Gaddafi of Libya. Now Obama and the three witches are reaping the predictable consequences of igniting such a bubbling cauldron of irrational hatred.
An existential dagger is now pointing at Israel, the only stable democracy in the Middle East. The Prime Minister of Israel, Binyamin Netanyahu, fortunately has the full measure of President Obama's lack of spine. Pre-emptive Israeli strikes against known enemies will provide a degree of protection that the Obama administration assuredly will not offer.
The immediate crisis, of course, emanates from the Gaza Strip, where Hamas has launched a sequence of rocket attacks on Israel, one rocket actually reaching the outskirts of the Holy City of Jerusalem. Israeli armed forces are now marshaled and await the order of attack on the Gaza Strip. 'Cry, Israel, and let slip the dogs of war'.
President Morsi of Egypt now confronts the first real test for his Islamist government. Will he offer support to Israel in its quest to stamp out Hamas insurgents in the Gaza Strip? Or will he support the militants in their assault on Israel? If he chooses the former course of action, will he long survive as Muslim extremism sweeps across Egypt? If he chooses the latter, will an Obama-led United States continue to fund the Egyptian military as it intervenes to try to force Israelis into the Mediterranean Sea?
If the Middle East cauldron finally erupts into a determined effort to eliminate the State of Israel on one thing President Obama and his three witches can bank: Armageddon will surely follow. Israel has first and second strike nuclear capability. If the existence of its people is ultimately at stake, those weapons of mass destruction will be unleashed. The entire Middle East will return to its original desert status – only this time the massive desert will glow continuously throughout countless days and countless nights.
Read Shakespeare, Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, Susan Rice and Samantha Powers, and reflect on the terrible vengeance meted out by Lord Macduff, Thane of Fife, on the evil Lord Macbeth, Thane of Glamis and Cawdor.
Weep for what you so stupidly set in motion across the most unstable area of the globe!

We've Got You Covered!
We've got you covered (wirelessly, that is)! The long-anticipated campus-wide wireless coverage has finally arrived! Cal Maritime's IT Department has been busy deploying Aruba wireless access points (known as APs) in buildings throughout the campus over the past eight months.
At present, there are 107 APs in operation on campus. By the end of this coming summer, another 50 APs will be deployed. These APs provide 33 Megabit throughput in most of the buildings on campus, including the Classroom Building, Faculty Building, Admin Building, Library, Lab Building, Technology Center, Simulation Center, Boat House, Leadership/Marine Programs/Naval Science, Student Center, Career Center, Extended Learning and all of the residence halls. Although it was not by design, coverage also extends outside of various buildings for short distances.
The most recent installations were made in the Upper and Lower residence halls near the end of last semester (the new McAllister residence hall already had wireless APs installed before it opened it's doors last fall). The type of wall used in building construction can interfere with the wireless signal. Because of the Upper and Lower Residence Hall buildings' construction consisting of cement walls, users may have somewhat slower access in these buildings (estimated at 11 Megabit throughput).
According to Steve Frazier, Chief Information Officer, the new wireless service is provided free of any usage charge and available to all students, faculty and staff using computers and devices that are compatible with the 802.11 (a, b, g or n) wireless standard. "The majority of new laptops and handheld devices now come with this capability already built-in," he said. These include laptops, web-enabled smartphones (such as the iPhone), iPads, gaming devices, wireless printers, etc. "This new wireless network greatly extends access to the LAN without adding additional hard-wired ports," he said.
How To Access the Wireless Network
To use the campus's new wireless system, you must logon to a domain (students logon to the "Academic" domain whereas faculty and staff use the "Maritime" domain). Gone are the days when you could access one of a few APs on campus that did not require authentication (with exception of those on the ship). According to Jannette Corpus, Director of IT, this helps to improve network security.
Two networks ("cma" and "cma-wpa2") are available for wireless access on campus. Walter Abarca, the IT Department's network analyst, recommends that smart phone users connect to the "cma-wpa2" network. "Laptop users can use either one," he said. Both are encrypted but the "cma-wpa2" provides an additional layer of security. Both of these require you to logon using your campus credentials (username and password). Whereas the "cma" wireless network uses a web-based login and it will time out, the "cma-wpa2" network will permit you to reconnect without logging back in again. The "cma" wireless network does not require any configuration on your personal device (laptop, smartphone, etc.) but older model laptops may require configuration with "cma-wpa2."
Mr. Abarca said, "You should be able to see these network names by opening the wireless network browser on your computer, just as if you were connecting to a wireless network at home or in places such as airports or coffee shops." To connect, you will need to logon using your campus credentials (the same username and password that you use to logon into Cal Maritime's email system). Your username should be preceded by the domain name. For example, students would logon using academic\username (the word "academic" and your username must be separated by a backslash).
Ms. Corpus noted that non-campus members might also need access. She said, "Because the Aruba wireless network requires users to authenticate, guests visiting the campus will not be able to access the wireless system unless they have been granted the proper credentials." She encourages departments and clubs that need access for their guests to contact the IT Department's Help Desk prior to their anticipated arrival to obtain temporary guest accounts.
In many cases, you will be able to walk with your notebook or other wireless device from within the range of one wireless AP to a neighboring one without loosing connection and without needing to log back into the domain again. Raul Lucky, the Network Operations Center Manager, said "Cal Maritime's deployment of the Aruba APs combined with the "Centralized Multiservice Mobility Controllers" in our Data Center lets users remain connected to the network without having to re-authenticate as they move between APs." "By themselves," he said, "these special wireless APs are inoperable. Unlike traditional wireless APs or routers, they cannot be used elsewhere. They have to communicate with one of the controllers in the Data Center."
The IT Department has already received positive responses concerning the new wireless network. Mr. Frazier noted that the Aruba WLAN is a secure, scalable and reliable enhancement to Cal Maritime's wired network. Many people were involved in making it possible. The CSU system as a whole has spearheaded the Infrastructure Terminal Resources Project (ITRP), which is establishing a baseline infrastructure for technology on all the campuses. In addition, Cal Maritime's Auxiliary Services and staff in the IT Department have been heavily involved. In particular, Mr. Frazier acknowledged the tireless efforts of Walter Abarca, the IT Department's network analyst. "Walter helped make this possible by spending untold hours on conference calls with the Chancellor's Office team, with AT&T field engineers, and crawling through building ceilings deploying the controllers and APs… and then working the kinks out!" he said.
Questions and problems regarding connecting to the wireless infrastructure should be directed to Cal Maritime's IT Help Desk. Also please visit the Wireless FAQs.

I've only been an Iowa State fan since I started school (in Fall '07). Yet, in the last 3.5 years, I've seen this athletics department develop an attitude becoming of a Big XII, division one athletics department.
Don't look now, but we might have a little swagger. Can we keep it going?
Gameday link was awesome, great to see something like this for recruits to check out.
Wow, that's a pretty smooth website. Very nice!
Very nice -- I especially like the Nike equipment tour. (Click on the Nike tab)
Thanks for the link. This is great news! Many other schools have had football sites like this for awhile now, and it's about time we did too.
Looks like it is a great start - some great video links in it. Nice S/C video and sports psychology interview with Marty Martinez.
This is a must for recruiting, IMO.

the general are good for all types of terrain they give good grip in snow & soft ground as a caravaner i need a good tyres for some sites tend to get a bit soggy19/03/2011
Close to the original size of tyre that Range Rover Classic vehicles were designed and tested with. A good tyre for both road use & off road...laning, muddy tracks and grass. Would not hesitate to buy again.07/02/2011
Excellent value for money with very little road noise from such deep tread.30/11/2010
Serious grip off road. Almost a mud tyre. Last well. Good compound in wet. Really top choice aggressive AT tyre IME without too many compromises re handling and wet road grip etc. Compound doesn't harden too much half way through tyre tread like AT KOs, making them iffy in UK wet - they just grip and grip :) Bit noisy and thirsty but otherwise perfect :D12/09/2010

BALTIMORE (WUSA) -- An Eastern Shore developer will have to pay $15,000 after pleading guilty to burning waste for days inside the Cooke's Hope subdivision, says Attorney General Douglas F. Gansler.
Kirlkey Road Sales, Inc., owned by William T. Hunter, pleaded guilty to several criminal counts of improper solid waste disposal by open-fire burning and violation of air pollution regulations in Talbot County court.
The investigation started when several residents of Cooke's Hope in Easton complained about being overcome by heavy smoke and the smell of burning plastic and rubber. Some residents reported breathing problems.
The results of the investigation revealed that on January 4, some Kirkley Road Sales representatives took trash and waste from a retail store in Queenstown and under direction from the manager, some employees took the trash to the subdivision, doused it with kerosene and lit it on fire. According to authorities, the fire lasted for six days and there was no permit for burning the items, which included plastic shelving, display racks and metal shelves.
Authorities say this kind of burning was a huge concern because of toxic and dangerous chemicals that can lead to significant health problems, such as lung damage.

text: Boy, what a tough call! Well, I knew Lukec's Blue Pyramid had to make the list, but which other map to choose? I loved were Schwarzkreuz was going with his Lone Tower, but it seemed somewhat less "mappy" than the other entries. That left Das Carbus Das Quala and Larb's Sunset Tower, both of which had been the highest on my list from the beginning. I really could have gone either way here, but slightly preferred the line-work on Das Quala. At any rate, great job everyone!
