Executive Summary and Full 2015 Report
The report presents results for the 2015 Universitas 21 annual ranking of national systems of higher education and explains the methodology used to obtain the results. The essential logic behind the development of national rankings is that it is the higher education system as a whole, not just research intensive universities, that matters for the economic and cultural development of a nation.
Fifty national systems of higher education, from all continents, are evaluated on the basis of 25 attributes. The attributes are grouped into four modules: Resources, Environment, Connectivity and Output. Resources are a necessary condition for excellence but they are not sufficient: they may be used inefficiently. Resources need to be complemented by a favourable regulatory environment which gives considerable independence to institutions, while monitoring quality and fostering competition. Institutions need to be well-connected to external stakeholders within the country to maximise their contribution to the nation; external connections are important in facilitating the flow of new ideas.
The actual selection of variables is constrained by the availability of data. The Resources module covers government expenditure on higher education, total expenditure, and R&D expenditure in tertiary institutions. The Environment module comprises a qualitative index of the policy environment, business views of the education system, the gender balance of students and academic staff, and a data quality variable. This year a measure of the financial autonomy of institutions, based on a survey we conducted, has been added to the qualitative index. The Connectivity module includes numbers of international students, research articles written with international collaborators, measures of interaction with business and industry, and web-based connectivity. Nine Output variables are included that cover research output and its impact, the presence of world-class universities, participation rates and the qualifications of the workforce. The appropriateness of training is measured indirectly by relative unemployment rates for different levels of education. Variables are standardised for population size.
Rankings are provided for each module as well as an overall ranking. For the latter, Output is weighted at 40 per cent and the other modules are weighted at 20 per cent. The highest ranked countries for Resources are Denmark and Canada; Singapore is third, having risen six places since the 2014 rankings, followed by Sweden, Switzerland, Finland and the United States. The Czech Republic shows the greatest improvement over last year's rankings. The environment for higher education is judged to be best in the United States, Hong Kong SAR, Finland and the Netherlands. The four leaders in Connectivity are all countries with relatively small populations: Switzerland, Austria, Sweden and Denmark; the United Kingdom is ranked fifth. The top three countries in the Output ranking are the United States, the United Kingdom and Canada; Denmark is fourth and Sweden and Switzerland are equal fifth. Saudi Arabia shows the largest increase, rising 11 places to 35.
Aggregating to obtain an overall ranking, the top ten countries are the United States, Switzerland, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Canada, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Singapore and Australia. Comparing the rankings with those of two years ago, the larger movements are correlated with changes in economic circumstances: China, South Africa, Chile and Hungary improving; Ukraine, Serbia, Bulgaria, Greece, Spain and Turkey falling.
We calculate a second overall ranking by looking at how countries rate compared with what is the expected performance at their level of GDP per capita. This is done by fitting regression lines to each data series. Using this adjustment a number of lower income countries rise up markedly in the rankings: South Africa to 10th, China to 16th and India to 18th.

Rated 4 / 5 stars
low quality, and i dont really like the sound, very repeditive. should compress the time, make it flow quicker into the main gist of things, and then you would have room for better quality. Peaceout!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
this is good
this is a good madness song. its fast, brutal, sinister ( in a way), hardcore and dark so this is just plain good it sounds madness, when you hear it you see madness, and it embodies it completely.
very good keep up the good work.
Thanks for the review man!
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
"Yes", and "no".
It kicked ass ("Yes"), but the melody at the beginning was crap ("No"). Other than that, it was awesome. Not the ideal Madness song, but it still rocks.
Keep it up.
ahh well :S
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
Bass indeed.
This song thoroughly upset my neighbors. Aside from the bass which was immense the rest just didn't seem as filled out as the original. I still love this fucking song though. Good work.
Haha thanks for the review. my next dnb song will hopefully fill out more :)
Rated 4.5 / 5 stars
As good as this is....
...I don't think they will accept this into the competition because I think you have to be original like no remixes. But this is a really good piece of work! If it doesn't make it, you've still made a good accomplishment :)
Thanks for understanding my predicament XD

Athletic Teams Traveling South for Spring Break
Spring is a great time to be a student-athlete at Lebanon Valley College overall, but it is enhanced by the opportunity to take part in spring break trips. The baseball, softball, and tennis teams will all travel south this spring to open their seasons. Each will go to a different destination, but all games and matches will count toward their regular season records.
Of equal importance is the bonding that takes place during the trips. Each team plans activities away from the fields and courts to help strengthen camaraderie among team members and to build trust that is meant to be carried into games and matches later on.
The baseball team will again make the trip to Fort Pierce, Fla., beginning March 2. Opponents this season include John Jay College of Criminal Justice, Misericordia University, Muhlenberg College, Westminster College (Pa.), Susquehanna University, Penn State Erie, and Geneva College (Pa.). Though all of these teams play within the same region as LVC, they will be able to get a much earlier start to the season in Florida.
"In Florida, we expect to see a lot of guys getting opportunities and finding out where we're going to fit," head coach Keith Evans said. "We're looking to get off to a good, solid start and play the game the way it's meant to be played with sound fundamentals. We'll do the little things and try to pick up as many wins as we can."
The trip is geared at tuning players up for the rest of the season, and this year that will be most important because the roster is much younger. Last year's team graduated 11 seniors, including six starting position players and its top starting pitcher. Ten new players joined this season.
"I anticipate using several different lineups," Evans said. "I told the kids, 'Every night, I go home and I have three different starting outfielders in my head. Tonight, I'll go home and probably have three different starters in my head.'"
The softball team will also return to Florida this season – to the renowned National Training Center in Clermont. Opponents include John Carroll University, Thiel College, Muhlenberg, Adrian College, Moravian College, Misericordia, Emerson College, and Finlandia University.
The team may not have been hit as hard as the baseball team in numbers, but it lost some key pieces in the four seniors that graduated last year in three impactful position players and its top starting pitcher. Softball retooled with six new players – a mix of freshmen and transfers.
"Spring break is always an interesting time for us," head coach Stacey Hollinger said. "We definitely want to give all of our players an opportunity to play and show us what they have. Figure out lineups. Figure out some combinations. Get our pitchers in the circle and see what their strengths and weaknesses are. It's just a time to really learn about the team when they finally get the opportunity to get outside and play."
The men's and women's tennis teams open their spring seasons in Hilton Head, S.C., in a series of matches played at different area resorts. Between March 4 and 7, the men will play Catholic University, Grand Rapids Community College, and Eastern Nazarene University. The women will see York College, Eastern University, and Malone University.
The team uses its annual trip to bounce from resort to resort across Hilton Head because of the strong tennis culture of the area. Tennis plays a split season between fall and spring and uses the trip south to shake the rust of winter.

BOULDER, Colo., Sept. 5, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- As the nation continues to look for solutions on the types of investment it should make for long-term economic growth, a report released today out of Colorado underscores the importance of sustained funding for research at the federal laboratories and the resulting impact on the economy.
The report from CO-LABS, a consortium organized to establish Colorado as a global leader in research, technology, and their commercialization, shows that the economic impact of the state's federally funded laboratories was $2.3 billion and directly employed nearly 8,000 people in 2012.
"Colorado's federal labs help foster the innovation that fuels our state and the nation's economy," Colorado Gov. John Hickenlooper said. "Leveraging the labs' research and technology with the state's innovative entrepreneurial spirit creates a strong foundation for Colorado's business ecosystem. We are proud of the extraordinary advancements coming from the research in Colorado and will continue to support our federal laboratories and their world-class workforce."
The report, which analyzes data from a majority of Colorado's 30 federally funded laboratories, supports statistical data from national surveys on the importance of funding innovation in the United States. One of the most recent examples: a 2012 study from the National Science Foundation highlights how the U.S. remains the single-largest R&D performing country, with a total of nearly $414 billion expended in 2011. Furthermore, according to a 2008 report by the Science Foundation Arizona these public investments in R&D are leveraged by private industry: every dollar of public R&D investment induces $4 of private R&D investment, which results in a significantly larger positive economic impact.
And while the nation's federal laboratory system has grown to comprise more than 700 laboratories with a combined federal research and development budget of over $100 billion, Colorado is the first and only state to report on the combined economic impact of its federally funded laboratories.
"In 2008, when we first released our study, it was somewhat unchartered territory for a state to look at federally funded labs as a collective local resource," said Bill Farland, chair of CO-LABS and vice president for research at Colorado State University. "What we found was more than a dollar value. We learned that there's a tremendous synergy between the laboratories, businesses and the community. This has allowed the laboratories to become important parts of our communities and has allowed for a variety of companies to spin out from our federal labs. In addition, we learned that people want to live here, making it easier for the labs to recruit top-notch talent to the state."
According to the Federal Laboratory Consortium for Technology Transfer, Colorado ranks fourth in terms of the number of laboratories and seventh for federal laboratories per capita. In addition, in 2009, Colorado ranked second in the nation for funding from NASA, the Department of Commerce, and the Department of Interior, and was in the top 5 for National Science Foundation funding.
Farland noted that even though other states have larger federal facilities that account for more in economic output, what sets Colorado apart is the number and diversity of its federally funded laboratories.
"Thanks in part to having the nation's third-most highly educated population, Colorado has one of the highest per capita concentrations of federal research facilities in the nation," Farland said. "The range of research happening here is quite diverse with groundbreaking studies on climate change, renewable energy, physical sciences, space, wildlife, agriculture, and endemic and epidemic diseases."
Forecasting Wildfire Behavior
While the state's research expertise varies widely, one area that is of particular national interest is how the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) is looking to understand and predict wildfire growth and dynamics.
Take for instance the recent wildfire near Yosemite and how it threatened San Francisco's water and power supply. Using an NCAR-developed program which pairs a model that forecasts weather with a model that simulates wildfire behavior, emergency managers in the future may be able to more accurately anticipate the movement of fires across complex terrain.
"These types of simulations are helping us to better understand how different types of weather conditions and landscapes influence the growth and direction of fires," says NCAR scientist Janice Coen. "This can be important information to help firefighters combat blazes more effectively while staying out of harm's way."
Coen's program is just one of the many examples of research coming out of Colorado that is helping to solve global issues.
How Federal Laboratories Spur Innovation
In addition to helping the public understand how science can improve daily lives, federal laboratories play an increasingly important role nationally in promoting regional growth by partnering with entrepreneurs to create new jobs, products, and companies. Colorado's federal research facilities are leading this charge.
Several of the state's laboratories including JILA, NCAR, and the Energy Department's National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) work collaboratively with industry researchers and support startup companies by offering access to their scientists and facilities.
For example, through its annual Industry Growth Forums, NREL has provided an opportunity for 30 cleantech startup companies to present their business cases to an expert panel of investors and energy executives. To date, participating companies have raised more than $4 billion in growth financing.
For entrepreneurs like Randy Gee, chief technology officer of SkyFuel, a Colorado company that develops advanced solar energy equipment for use at the utility scale, the opportunity to partner with NREL has been important to SkyFuel's success.
"SkyFuel's proximity to NREL is important to our ongoing technology program, especially since NREL's specialized test and measurement equipment has helped accelerate our path to product commercialization," said Gee. "Without a doubt, we are strong believers in collaborations between the private sector and the national laboratories."
Gee added that developing new technologies in Colorado is a natural fit for a variety of reasons: the region is home to one of four satellite offices for the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, has consistently ranked as one of the top location for startups, and has maintained top-five rankings for venture capital as a percent of state GDP.

Sorry... this is going to be a bit of a rant.
If you are in a gym and train around others, you should learn to spot correctly!
If the person requesting a spot tells you not to touch the bar unless he calls for it. DO NOT TOUCH THE BAR UNTIL HE CALLS FOR IT OR IS FAILING.
I had my bench workout today ruined because some trigger happy, spotting-newb would not keep his hands off the bar while i was benching. Completely ruined my rep cadence and tension.
Furthermore, while spotting for the bench press, its usually best to use a mixed grip. If the person under the bar completely fails, the mixed grip will allow you to hold on to the most amount of weight. Plus it allows for a stronger grip.

first time post : ) I got my new mercier kilo last week and right away swapped out the rear wheel for a mavic cxp a friend gave me, got a new dura ace lockring and had the lbs put it on. now the rear wheelish makes noise when i ride. the shop put the chain on pretty tight so i loosened the slack and still the noise!
i'm pretty sure the wheel is in their straight but still a constant noise of the chain. Is this normal? or could it be just that the bike is new that it needs to wear in? if so how long usually does that take? this noise is driving me crazy haha i just need to forget about it and ride.
Any advice?

Openings & Closings: Italian Restaurants Coming to First Hill and Capitol Hill, Plus Pho and Sandwich News"/>
Buon appetito! Who wants spaghetti? Your first option on First Hill: Vito's, an East Coast-style Italian eatery with a 50's vibe, is scheduled to re-open late this summer. (You may recall it shut down over a year ago.) The Hideout's owner Greg Lundgren is restoring the space; he plans to keep the same menu, but add some live music. Your second option on Capitol Hill: Pasta? (yes, with a question mark) anticipates a June opening at 416 Broadway Avenue, according to Capitol Hill Seattle Blog. The casual Italian joint will include a full bar and if all goes smoothly, outdoor seating.
If you prefer your noodles in a soup base, a new pho restaurant is coming to Pioneer Square. Pho Fuchsia will take over the space formerly occupied by the Art Forte Gallery at 213 1st Avenue.
Lastly, also related to Pioneer Square, the neighborhood's beloved East Coast-style sandwich shop Tat's Deli will have a new home, come Tuesday, May 25. The move is just a couple blocks, from 115 Occidental Avenue to 157 Yesler Way. It entails longer hours of operation, more seating, and a beer and wine menu.
That's all for now, folks!

Consider this an open letter to all Dudes and Dudettes, from an author who has consistently pushed the boundaries of acceptability on this site…
Though it may seem ironic that I am the one to write this, please don't disregard this or call me a hypocrite. Yes, I am no fan of blacks (as a group). And yes, I have posted stuff on this site that has drawn the ire of people far more polite and measured than myself. I have even had to redact my own commentary and posts because of it.
All this is to say: I understand your anger and frustration. It is totally justified and completely understandable.
It also must be noted that AWD is the last person on earth to tolerate the censorious tyranny of Political Correctness.
However, being non-PC does not mean being rude or outright mean. There is a difference. Again, I am not the authority on this difference as I often overstep the line. But there is a line, and I think it's time to be clear on where it is.
There are two hard and fast rules on this site: 1, No f-bombs, and 2, no n-bombs. During the original close-knit days of this blog, those two simple rules sufficed. However, as the audience has expanded and race relations have further deteriorated under our "post-racial Messiah", the spirit of these rules requires an expansion of the letters of them.
Namely, no n-bombs means not just n-bombs, but any disparaging commentary relating to apes, monkeys, chimps, chimp-outs, etc.
Again, the anger is understandable, but it's not an excuse to resort to language that does nothing but give our enemies ammunition to use against us (not to mention offend readership that might otherwise be sympathetic to our cause).
We can be critical of blacks—or Hispanics, or Jews, or Muslims, or any other race, religion, color, or creed—without being nasty and ugly about it.
In deference to our venerable host, I will do my best to be reasonable and measured in my criticism of those groups who bring great injury to our once-great nation. I humbly ask that you do the same.

There was not much at this park. No (open) restroom, no shower, no internet, nothing. The sites were gravel and sunny and very close together. There was a picnic table. The park was not very clean. - grizmo_1

Great location for exploring Olympic National Park. Close to Safeway for groceries and gas. Expanded cable TV. No restrooms. Utilities in back of site. Do not stay in site #8; it is next to storage shed and we were unable to extend our awning. - bspe

This is supposed to be Passport America but campground does not follow the schedule published in P.A. book or on P.A. web site. Do not accept credit card. Estimate 30 of 35 sites are "permanent" guests with some looking like they have occupied space for years. Park advertises "Club Pavilion w/water & electric". In reality this is campground workshop. Advertise Picnic tables. I saw four. Space between sites is about 8' to 10' max. They do have WiFi. Probably would not stay here again as other parks in area look nicer at same price. - Tireman9

Yes, the hosts are very vigilant about patrolling the beach, but they also pick up trash while they're there, and they're all very friendly. The roads in and out are gravel, but they are watered to keep dust down. Our site was on grass, was semi-level, and was very deep, but narrow. We had a large motor home next to us for the first night and they were very close and noisy. The only trees were behind us. We had a beautiful view of the ocean and Victoria Island from inside our RV. There are lots of shells and tide pools to discover on the beach. High tide can take up the entire beach, so look at the tide schedule in the office. We had a spot near the office, so Wi-Fi worked perfectly, but we turned our phones off due to constant roaming and to avoid international charges from a Canadian tower. I was disappointed that no cable was available at these rates. We were also charged $8 per night for our little Chihuahua, which I thought was excessive and not very pet friendly. Our site was next to the small graveyard, but it didn't bother me. I did pick up lots of burrs or goat heads in the soles of my shoes walking in and around the park, and the sand fleas on the beach are numerous, but they don't bite, they're just annoying. We saw a pair of Bald Eagles nearly every day. There were no 30 amp spots available, so we paid for a 50 amp spot. Fortunately, my sister had purchased an adapter from the last campground when we ran into the same problem. The laundry room was spacious and clean but only had 2 washers and 3 dryers. We didn't have any issues with the sewer system. There's a blacktop patio about 6'x3' near the picnic table and fire ring. If you want a spot on the water, you will pay for it. - J rys

We thought that this park was one of the worst we have ever visited because it is so over priced. This dumpy, shabby place was not worth the $53.99 for only one night. The Wi-Fi only works near the office. They wouldn't let me bring my computer into the office, but suggested I use a nearby picnic table outdoors in the drizzle and cold! The sites are in deplorable condition: weedy, half dead grass, a "patio" smaller than the picnic table, ugly laundry room and rest rooms. It would have been okay for about $20-$30 but $53.99 is ridiculous. The staff was very busy patrolling with binoculars and walkies-talkies to make sure that no one was trespassing on to the property. Anyone who sets foot on their precious private beach must pay $6 and they were far more focused on that than on the paying guests already there. We would absolutely NOT recommend this park to anyone. - DMarilynB

It is a little more than parking lot for RVs. Just dead grass, a table, and a fire pit. The RV are very close together. There are no play area for for children, pets on leach at all times. All visitors have to pay $6 to just enter the camp. We had friends who stopped by to say hello for a few minutes in our RV, they had to pay just to drop by. The staff was incredibly uncaring, and rude to them. I would not recommend this RV camp to anyone. - gastonmom

Older park but new owners are working hard to make improvements. Easy check in, we were escorted to our site. Hookups worked well. No cable. The owner was very helpful with suggestions on things to do in the area. There is a trail leading to the former dam site just outside the campground entrance. Wish we could of stayed longer. - Recycled

We stayed here based on previous reviews from others and location. We knew immediately upon check in, we'd made the right choice. The park has mixed sites, some open, some shaded and includes pull throughs. The layout is great with easy access for big rigs. The new owners are fully committed to customer service and it's apparent during check in but doesn't stop there. They went above and beyond with personal daily interaction seeing to our needs and stopping by to chat. They were full so the owner personally escorted us the one of several tent sites where I had no problems parking my 41' Pusher with jeep in tow. Moreover the site was just beautiful. Service, location and site were so good we cancelled our next park to stay on two additional days. This location is the perfect basecamp for all area attractions and I highly recommend it. - K johnson

Four new washers and dryers that work! The restrooms have been renovated and are super clean, meeting room with appliances. We had a pull-thru that was level. New owners have put a lot of effort into this campground and it shows. The entire campground is very clean. - norm scherer

National Park Service campground. Best suited for tents and smaller rigs which is what we like. Heavily wooded, a few waterfront sites, sites can be fairly unlevel, road noise in the distance. Hiking and biking trails nearby. Typically packed during the summer months, but after Labor Day we were able to get a nice waterfront site with a steep walk down to the water. Lake Crescent is a beautiful but cold lake. Will definitely camp here again. - flaymingyon
Aug 2015 - $10.00
Set on the west shore of Lake Crescent this campground is pretty but primitive. The prime spots are walk-in tent sites right along the shoreline. These sites make it a snap to launch a kayak or canoe. Almost made me wish we were still tenters! The campground is set in very steep terrain so many of the sites will challenge your leveling skills. There are only a few pull-through sites. Shortly before you get to the campground itself there is a boat launch area and a dump station (for which there is a fee in addition to your camping fee). The park brochure recommends that RVs be no longer than 21' but we saw a few slightly larger rigs that managed OK. Some sites have peek-a-boo views of the lake. Our rate reflects the fact that we have a Senior Access pass. - BruceandKathyWA

3 loops, with a 31' trailer our site options were limited. I wouldn't want to bring a big rig or a big 5th wheel in here. Saw several Class C rentals in here. Typical NPS park, no hookups, no close neighbors, wasn't very crowded in late August. Burn ban in effect due to all the fires. From web site-RVs: Sites for 21 feet. - Jim Lee

This is one of several campgrounds in Olympic National Park. Heart O' the Hills is the nearest campground to Port Angeles and provides easy access to Hurricane Ridge. There are no hook-ups here and the closest dump station would most likely be found in Port Angeles or you can use the one at Fairholme Campground (another NPS campground) on the west end of Lake Crescent. There are restrooms with sinks and flush toilets, but no showers. As with many NPS campgrounds, Heart O' the HIlls is best suited to those with smaller rigs. The park's web site says "RV: Sites for 21 feet, a few for 35 feet." The roads are narrow and of course there are lots of trees. There are some pull through sites available but most sites are back-in and many are very un-level. We camped here for two nights in mid-week and had our choice of spots, selecting a nice pull-through near the restrooms. Even mid-week it's a good idea to get here early though to get the best selection because sites are first-come, first-served.
We enjoyed this campground for its beauty, peace and quiet, and good access to Hurricane Ridge and would definitely stay here again. Our rate reflects a 50% discount for having the federal Senior Access Pass. - BruceandKathyWA

Made the reservation over the phone, Spent 2 nights. Beautiful lake view as you drive in. Campsites very close together. When I backed in, my door opened onto the tent in the site next door. My table was on the other side of the RV. The tent campers were horrified I might stay and I have just a little rig. They did accommodate my request to move and I noticed they did not have any other takers on the spot while I was there. I was not very impressed. Food in the deli expensive and not that good. I was quite impressed when my server started up the vacuum cleaner right after she delivered my meal. No, I will not be going back there. - WA Morning Girl

Lake Crescent is stunningly beautiful and so it's worth the time to stay right on its shore when visiting. This resort was a little shabby, but nice enough to recommend because of the lake. I couldn't, for the life of me, figure out how to make reservations from their web site (it only seems to want you to reserve a room), but I knew we were off-season so I just went by when we got there and took my chances. The clerk seemed confused that I didn't have a reservation, but eventually worked it out, and then was somewhat restrictive about what sites she would put me in. That all took on a new complexion later in the afternoon, and seemed a bit silly, when we realized that we were literally the only RV guests in the entire place. Still, that's just an oddity and not really a problem. The site we did get had a view of the lake and it really was beautiful. There is a restaurant there, that we didn't use but that looked nice, and you can rent boats, kayaks or canoes to paddle on the lake (you should--it is the clearest lake you will ever see). While sitting at the edge of the lake, an otter swam up and munched on a crawfish right in front of us, so that was a real treat. The sites are your typical parking lot with about a foot of grass between each. The utilities all worked fine. It was lovely with no one else there, but will probably feel pretty crowded once full. All in all, if you can figure out how to make a reservation (which I'm sure you'll need once the season starts), this is well worth the visit. - User3072

When we stayed here 2 years ago I was not happy with the way the park was run. See that review for a description of the park facilities and amenities. We decided to give this park another try since there are new owners. We had a fairly level, gravel, FHU, pull-through site. The near the front of site location of the sewer was a problem. They currently do not have cable - many parks have had difficulty dealing with the provider demands brought about due to the change to all digital. Most FHU site are satellite friendly. Their 802.11 network was OK for our simple (e-mail and trip planning) purposes. Although they do have about 25 FHU sites, this park is best for small RVs and tenters. It has all the family amenities (an outdoor pool on the Olympic Peninsula is rare)and great "camping" sites for families. As usual with KOA, I saw recycling for aluminum cans only. The bathrooms and showers are inadequate for a park with so many non-sewer sites. $45 for our site was way too much. - Jerry S
Jul 2015 - $45.00
When I review a park I focus pretty heavily on the pad site. I not there for the amenities which this park has a lot of. I stayed at site #3 pull through. Pretty much a disaster. While the drive did have some rock it was sloped front to back and side to side almost like it was twisted. On top of that they had replaced the the electrical box and moved it too close to the ground with about a three foot crater around it that had about an 8 inch drop right by your coach. Why? It had a 6 inch tree growing in it so this wasn't a recent event. They had a limited number of back ins that look pretty decent. The staff was very accommodating but bottom line this seems to be a park for small rigs and families with a lot of kids. BTW the rigs are so close that it makes using the picnic tables very awkward. If the guy next to you uses his fire pit- you will get smoke. - aznumwa339

We stayed here in a 5th wheel trailer. The average rating is because of the close proximity to Highway 101...100 feet! Sleep was just about impossible. The sewer hook-up was at the front of the trailer. Had to put the picnic table over our neighbor's sewer hook up in our grassy area. Space mostly dirt. Spaces tight. No shade. Wonderful laundry. Commercial dryers and some front load washing machines. They advertise cable on the website, but no cable available even though it is wired for cable. The staff were friendly and quite helpful. The camp store was well stocked. - Marilynintexas

We've stayed at Salt Creek numerous times. What we love most about it are the beautiful views across the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the easy access to the interesting beach and tide pools. What we like least is how close you are to your neighbors!
There are two sections to this campground. Sites #1 to #51 are up on a high exposed bluff. Of those sites, #33 to #39 are pull-through, while #1 to #32 are back-in. Sites #6 to #32 are arranged on terraces so that theoretically every site will have a view. Be aware though that depending on what kind of rig you have you may end up without a view. For example, we stayed in site #17 which put the large front windows of our trailer facing the view (albeit over the top of our truck). If we had taken one of the sites in the upper terrace (#25 to #32) the back of our trailer with its tiny window would have been facing the view. This is because of the direction of the traffic flow. So if in doubt, when making a reservation, ask! We camped during a very stormy few days and so the campground was not crowded and we were able to pick a spot that worked well for us without a reservation.
There is another section of the campground that is down closer to the water where sites #52 to #92 are located. These sites are nestled in the woods and some have views, but many do not. They're pretty, but can be dark on rainy or cloudy days and they're not suitable for large rigs. There are no hook-ups in the lower loop. - BruceandKathyWA

We love this park! Made reservations for 3 nights, stayed 7 and are already planning our return. Extremely clean grounds, nice/helpful Rangers on staff. We turned off phones and electronics to ensure we didn't pick up a Canadian tower and instead, we went tide pooling, hiking, explored and enjoyed the incredible area. We camped in a 35' motor home plus toad and there were larger rigs than we are. Neighbor is relatively nearby but because the way the park is tiered, we did not feel cramped and our forward view was spacious and spectacular. Busy on the weekend but quiet at night. Highly recommend, We would rank Salt Creek in our top 3 most favorite campgrounds in the US! - User2954

We stayed for 5 days in our 40' RV. There was no check-in due to our having reservations online and our name was on the camp post at our spot. Getting to our site was easy and pulling in was not a problem although the sites are close to one another. There is no logic to who stays in the pull-through spaces since we saw vans and pop up trailers in the spaces. Our hookups were located in the right location and they were in working order. Our Verizon hotspot worked surprisingly great for not having a town close by. Our satellite worked fine even though there were a lot of trees around. There are some amazing views of the ocean, and hiking trails. This park has some history of military with a large bunker and observation bunker. This park is quiet on weekdays but, the weekends are a nightmare, barking dogs, screaming kids, kids on bikes, people walking through your camp, no regard for privacy, bathrooms are outdated like most state parks. The volunteers are friendly and will bring firewood to your camp. - SteelHorseRider

This park is difficult to rate. Many spots are full-timers who live in really run down travel trailers, and a couple have junk piled around them. There are several park model-type homes as well, some new, some old. There are also several full-timers who take very good care of their space by mowing their lawns and planting flowers and vegetables. The camp host works day and night. He and his wife are very friendly and offered to take us into town with them when they went grocery shopping since we didn't have a tow vehicle. There's only one washer and dryer, but the room is kept tidy. Our spacious spot was on grass and not level at all made worse when someone drove through it while the ground was wet and left deep ruts. Each site had a picnic table and fire ring. The electric must have been updated as there was a nest of wires covered with a bucket next to the circuit breaker. This park has a very casual policy regarding dogs being off leash and not being picked up after, but most people lived by the rules. Most of the residents were very friendly, but there were a few that had some heavy traffic in and out which could be suspect. Also, being near the highway could be noisy at times. There were several large mature trees, but not at our site. There is a large, beautiful grassy area for the tent campers separate from the RV area. There's also a 9-hole golf course behind the RV park that's decent and golf carts and clubs are available. Everyone obeyed the 5 mile-an-hour rule up and down the rock and dirt road so no dust was really ever kick up. We would come back if we were on a tight budget or no other parks in the area were available. GPS and signage got us right to the park. - J rys

We were so thrilled to have found this park. Although a bit out of town (15-20 min), it turned out to be a perfect location for us to cruise around the area from. There are several full timers which you see when you first enter the park which I was skeptical about when we arrived, but when we pulled around to the pull through lots, it is perfect. RV park hosts great. They are so welcoming and friendly. We are pulling a trailer behind our motorhome and we were assisted with his truck to park it next to us. While we were there, we went to Victoria Island on the ferry for three days and felt very comfortable with leaving everything behind. Although we thought we would only stay a few days, we stayed ten days. Beautiful golf course here too and only $10 to play all day. Very accommodating for all our needs. Laundry room only has one washer and one dryer and is a bit dated, but only $1.00 per load and things came out clean. Our lot had a fire pit and picnic table too...and Wi-Fi is included. The weekly rate breaks down to $20 per day. Lots of tents sites available, too. This is a gem and not to be confused with the recreation park across the street. We looked there...too many people packed in. - Ollie49

Sites are terraced on a forest hillside. The sites are quite short and narrow with very little parking space for a car. Full hookup sites, but only 30 amp available. WiFi is weak and trees blocked satellite reception. Good Verizon cell and MiFi reception. There is daytime road noise, but it is much quieter at night. Only two washers and two dryers in the laundry and no folding table. - Dave51

Can't see the mountains from most sites because trees have been allowed to go unpruned for years. Satellite dishes and WiFi unusable. No cable TV. Most pads have only 30 amp service. The park and adjacent general store are for sale. The new owner will have to fix all these problems to bring the campground up to modern standards. It's 15 miles out of Port Angeles, a charming place with good restaurants and ambiance. Distance is only a minor factor for Olympia National Park, which has at least four entrances, two of them in town. - Mtmoi

As others have stated, this is a very nice park. Probably one of the best in the area. Centrally located to hit the high spots like Olympic NP, Cape Flattery, Forks, HOH rain forest, etc. 43' coaches fit well in the first row. WiFi times out multiple times per hour and requires to you sign in. Road noise is noticeable during the day, but real quiet at night. The owners are good people and really care for this place. We would return next time we're here. - rudy1

First off, you need to know that there are two campgrounds that go by the same name. This review is for the Olympic National Park campground called "Sol Duc Campground". The other campground which is also sometimes called "Sol Duc Campground" is actually owned and operated by the Sol Duc Hot Springs Resort and it is, as the previous reviewer writes, basically just a gravel parking lot with hook-ups. The NPS campground is an entirely different facility!
The NPS campground lies along the Sol Duc River in lush old growth rain forest. There are two loops with a total of 82 sites. The roads through the campground are very narrow with tight curves. Although there are some nice large pull-through sites, this campground will appeal mostly to those with smaller rigs, camper vans, truck campers, or tents.
Come prepared for rain! - BruceandKathyWA

I am having some issues committing files to my VisualSVN server when the files contain plus (+) signs in the names. This is something I need for iOS development. When I try to commit a file with a name that contains a plus sign I get the following errors:
svn: E155011: File 'C:...\Foo+Bar.txt' is out of date
svn: E160013: '/svn/Test/!svn/txr/1-8/Foo+Bar.txt' path not found
This is extremely frustrating. I have tried several clients (TortoiseSVN, Apache SVN) on both Windows and Mac OS X, with both 1.6 and 1.7 clients. I'm suspecting this might be a VisualSVN issue, unless plus signs are always special in SVN. If so, is there any workaround (e.g. escaping a plus sign or something). I haven't been able to find anything regarding this on Google.

OKC Thunder: Serge Ibaka, Steven Adams lead a back line of rim protection that's key to OKC's success
In the first half of the first quarter of his first game back from a calf injury, Serge Ibaka rose up and tossed away a Tim Duncan short hook.
But the ball went right back to the Spurs, who swung it around the perimeter and found Danny Green with an open lane to the hoop. Green drove into the teeth of OKC's defense, spotted Ibaka closing and errantly flung a moonshot finger roll that clanged off the backboard and the side rim.
Statement made. Ibaka was officially back, doing what he's paid to do: Block shots, alter others, patrol the paint and shield the rim.
And with its defensive anchor back in the fold, the Thunder was able to unleash its scariest and most overlooked team-wide skill — interior basket protection.
In sports, offense typically garners the most attention. With the Thunder's personnel, that's particularly true.
Russell Westbrook is a whirlwind attacker and a nightmare to plan against. Kevin Durant is as silky as they've ever come, a near 7-footer blessed with a dead-eye jumper and the handle of a shooting guard. But on those rainy offensive days — when Westbrook is out of control or Durant is struggling to find his rhythm — this team's fallback has always been its underrated defense.
And that is fueled by a back line that acts like a brick wall.
Ibaka is the best shot-blocker in the league. But the Thunder's roster is filled with other capable goaltenders who are unafraid to challenge at the rim.
In these playoffs, Ibaka's 36 blocks are the most in the league. DeAndre Jordan's 33 rank second. Entering Wednesday, Thunder rookie reserve Steven Adams was tied with Pacers starting center Roy Hibbert for third with 24, an amazing number considering the disparity in court time.
Per 48 minutes, Adams is averaging 3.85 blocks this postseason, more than Jordan (3.58), Ibaka (3.42), Hibbert (2.44) or anyone else that's played substantial time.
Adams had five in one game in the Memphis series. He had seven against the Clippers. He had four in 28 minutes against the Spurs on Sunday night, victimizing Tim Duncan and Tony Parker.
"It's something I just kind of picked up now," Adams said. "I'm big, so that helps with the tall guys, but in terms of timing, yeah, it's gotten a lot better. … I picked it up off Serge."
And that's a scary thought for opposing teams. Ibaka is 24, and the improving Adams is only 20, making this front line of the future a problem for potential penetrators in the present.
And the duo has help. Kevin Durant has 21 blocks this postseason, sixth most in the NBA, and Russell Westbrook has chipped in six, second most at his position behind John Wall. As a team, the Thunder has been first or second in the league in blocks per game each of the past five seasons.
Against the Spurs, this has been a huge and well-documented key. In the past two games, the Thunder has 18 blocks and countless alters. Ibaka's return has coincided with San Antonio's struggles, with Parker and his Spurs teammates finding it tougher to finish in the paint and harder to dribble and shoot on the perimeter.

TCU football coach Gary Patterson has agreed to a new contract that runs through the 2014 season.
The news comes just a few weeks after strong speculation that Kansas State was interested in hiring Patterson to lead his alma mater. The Wildcats eventually brought Bill Snyder out of retirement.
The Frogs went 11-2 during the 2008 season and handed Boise State its only loss with a 17-16 victory in the Poinsettia Bowl. It was TCU's fourth 11-win season in the past six years.
The 48-year-old Patterson has won at least 10 games in five of his eight seasons and has a 73-27 record.

Toros y toreros,1959

Item #: 13748762325A

Picasso once said 'If I hadn't been a painter, I'd have liked to be a picador.' This Indian Ink drawing, which captures a crucial moment in the second phase of the combat, the the tercio de banderillas, comes from one of three books produced between 1950 and 1960 on the bullfight theme. Throughout his work, bullfighting provided Picasso with an inexhaustible supply of ideas in which the whole virtuosity and power of his art are expressed. The transfert d'art is an exclusive adhesive screen-print produced from Picasso's Toros y Toreros (1959). It replicates the exact quality of the drawing. The image is on transparent film, so when it is applied, only what Picasso has drawn is transferred. It can be applied to any clean, smooth surface but cannot be repositioned. This is a unique way to add an affordable do-it-yourself design impact to any space.

- The Print
- The Artist
Pablo Picasso (1881 – 1973) was an artistic virtuoso who co-founded Cubism, and produced an astounding 20,000 paintings, prints, drawings and sculptures during his brilliant 70-year career. Picasso's unparalleled body of work was so vast, and its phases so unique, that art historians have divided it into specific periods. A child prodigy, Picasso took advanced classes at the Royal Academy of Art in Barcelona when he was only 15. His revolutionary Cubist works, with their distorted shapes and fragmented forms, established art as a genre that does not need to literally represent reality. Zealously embracing every medium from primitive art to sketches to Surrealism, Picasso had an unrivaled influence upon 20th century art.

CELEBRATING 18 wins through the season, the Columbus North softball family enjoyed plenty of wonderful moments.
Friday night's Columbus North Sectional championship game at Lincoln Park was not one of them.
The coaches, players and fans who had celebrated together, shared the pain of a 4-0 loss to Bloomington South.
Tears fell inside and behind North's dugout as an 18-11 season came to an end, along with the North coaching career of Jerry Burton.
Burton, who retired after five years as North's head coach and 23 years overall as a head coach, was left to reflect on 366 wins, eight sectional and two regional championships and a whole lot of precious moments with his players.
"Throughout much of this season, we had dealt with adversity," said Burton, who was one of the few people in North blue who was emotionally composed. "Whether it was pitching and lineup changes or overcoming obstacles, we pulled together, and I couldn't be more proud of our effort."
Friday's game started like it would be a fight until the final out, but the Panthers (17-8) broke through for four runs in the bottom of the third.
North, which had four hits to that point, didn't manage another hit the rest of the game.
"We knew we had to play a flawless game," Burton said. "We got in real good positions early on to score, but we couldn't capitalize on our opportunities. My hat's off to South for the pressure they were putting on us."
Although the seniors were saddened after coming up short of a championship, they said they always will remember the camaraderie.
Senior pitcher Grayson Harney praised the team's support system.
"I'm going to miss the support we had," Harney said. "We had a roller coaster of a season, and built a strong relationship with one another that will last way past softball."
"This is our life," senior Denisa Brooks said. "All of the seniors had a love for this game, as well as the rest of the team, and it's going to be hard to leave this group."
Both Brooks and Harney didn't waste time thinking of their leader for the past four years.
"He was definitely tough at times," Brooks said of Burton. "But it was his tough attitude that got us where we were this season."
"He wanted to push us to our limit every day," Harney said. "He gave his heart to softball and wanted the best in all of us, and we are definitely going to miss him."
Burton said the senior leadership, that also included Shannah Hercamp and Marissa Anderson, helped an already growing team.
"They were role models for the younger girls," Burton said. "They picked the girls up when they were in a tough spot and became leaders without being asked."
When it came to reflection, Burton said it all started when he got hired for his first position.
"I think about the first day I was hired as a softball coach at Columbus East," Burton said. "It all started there. If they didn't give me the opportunity 23 years ago to coach softball, who knows where I would be."
"I have dealt with a great group of ladies and great parents," he said. "I was fortunate enough to be their coach and their friend. I couldn't be happier."
Harney said she will miss the special moments with her teammates following the school day.
"The seniors always went to practice telling stories about what happened at school," Harney said. "We would joke around and had fun every time we practiced. The seniors looked at each other in our most recent practice and thought, 'What will we do when this is over?'"
While ending his career with a sectional championship win would've been nice, Burton said he will always remember the impact he left on the players.
"It is always nice to win, but to have girls come back every year and tell me that they appreciate everything I do for them was a much better feeling."

Hi All. I am looking to purchase a bike for myself and have narrowed it down to these two bikes. The Trek 7.3 FX and the Trek 7.5 FX. I have no idea about components, or anything for that matter so any help would be greatly appreciated. I do indoor cycling (which I relaize is completely different) but I want a bike I can grow into as I have a feeling I will fall in love with outdoor cycling. I will be using it mainly for fitness and also to tow around my kiddos in their Chariot trailer. The trailer weighs about 30lb. and the kids are about 40lbs total. The 7.3 is $639 for a 2010 (there are no 09's left) and the '09 7.5 FX is $720 (discounted from $899). I am just wondering if the $80 price difference is worth the extras you are getting.

With the 2016 presidential race already in full swing, political science graduate student Kayla Canelo's research is particularly timely.
One of the things that attracted Chelsea Coe to UC Merced as an undergraduate student was the opportunity to do research.

Experienced policymakers are more likely to make fair offers in bargaining than the average person, and less likely to accept low offers — even if it means both sides get nothing.

I'm looking for a method to looks for file which resides in a few directories in a given path. In other words, those directories will be having files with same filename across. My script seem to have the hierarchy problem on looking into the correct path to grep the filename for processing. I have a fix path as input and the script will need to looks into the path and finding files from there but my script seem stuck on 2 tiers up and process from there rather than looking into the last directories in the tier (in my case here it process on "ln" and "nn" and start processing the subroutine).
The fix input path is:-
The files that I want to do post processing by subroutine will be exist under several directories as below. Basically I wanted to check if the
file1.abc do exists in all the directories temp1, temp2 & temp3 under ln directory. Same for
file2.abc if exist in temp1, temp2, temp3 under nn directory.
The files that I wanted to check in full path will be like this:-
My script as below:-
#! /usr/bin/perl -w
my $dir = '/nfs/fm/disks/version_2.0/' ;
opendir(TEMP, $dir) || die $! ;
foreach my $file (readdir(TEMP)) {
next if ($file eq "." || $file eq "..") ;
if (-d "$dir/$file") {
my $d = "$dir/$file";
print "Directory:- $d\n" ;
&compare($file) ;
Note that I put the
print "Directory:- $d\n" ; there for debug purposes and it printed this:-
So I knew it get into the wrong path for processing the following subroutine.
Can somebody help to point me where is the error in my script? Thanks!

This lesson teaches you to:
- Add custom controls to the map.
- Create a legend.
Icons can indicate what a particular map marker represents, but often they are insufficient. Map legends have been used for many years to explicitly describe symbols on the map.
To place the legend on the map, we'll use the positioning feature of custom controls. Custom controls are simply HTML div elements with an absolute position on the map - they don't move as the map moves.
Try it out
Creating the container
To add a custom control, we'll first create an HTML DIV to hold the content. Once created, it's moved to the right-bottom of the map. Other control positions are available.

My first legend!
The control can then be styled, using CSS:
#legend {
background: white;
padding: 10px;
Adding the content
Finally, we can use the existing marker styles definition to populate the legend:
var legend = document.getElementById('legend');
for (var style in styles) {
var name = style.name;
var icon = style.icon;
var div = document.createElement('div');
div.innerHTML = ' ' + name;
See the final code here. You can view the source to see the completed code.

The U.S. Supreme Court will get to hear just how much things have changed in the South during argument on Feb.27 in Shelby County v. Holder, the challenge to Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act.
That's the section requiring certain states and jurisdictions — including 40 counties in N.C. — to get U.S. Department of Justice preclearance of changes to voting practices.
(As previously reported here, a case out of N.C., Nix v. Holder, had also been pending for certiorari by the Court, but was dismissed as moot on the grounds that the Justice Department had withdrawn its objections to the Kinston N.C. voting changes at issue there.)
If the views expressed by Chief Justice John Roberts four years ago — when the Court last considered the issue in Northwest Austin Municipal Utility District Number One v. Holder — are telling, the Court heads into the argument predisposed to dispensing with Section 5 as outdated. The court in that case did not expressly rule on the viability of Section 5, finding instead on narrow grounds that the Austin, Tex. district challenging the constitutionality of the law might be eligible to "bail out" from being covered. But Roberts nonetheless expressed his skepticism about the continued need for Section 5: Read more

Pumpkin turnovers were fabulous
Utilitarian but very fine eats. Recommended.
The food served here is really great. The service is slow, but the food is worth it. It is an Afghan restaurant so they obviously don't serve alcohol that really is just common sense.
The service is slooooow. Good food, but you'd better clear your schedule.
No alcohol is served here!
Pumpkin bolinee and the pineapple skewer!! So good!
Do not eat here if you have a nut allergy. Every dish has some type of nut in it and they're irremovable! I'm allergic to all nuts even coconut.
Try the kebab sampler
The spices and flavors are excellent, though there were several flaws in both cooking and service.
Try one of the Afghan specialties, specifically the lamb or chicken narinje or kabuli. Both are delicately flavored and delicious.
Basically anything on the menu is amazing!
The food is great, but don't go when they're busy - the service sucks if they have more than 3 tables to serve. Also, our waitress was bitchy, but every other time we've been there, they've been nice.
Best kofta ever!!1
Gotta try the grilled pineapple !!!
Great food!
