So, like... more or less nerdy than professional video gaming?
so you guys just read the comments for the last 2 weeks out loud?
Beyond the time constraints, were there other reasons sections were edited out? Gratuitous violence?
A bunch of Seattlites who would rather bitch about problems than actually do something about them? At least you're doing something original :)
They are, Clint. They're reporting them.
Do David Hiller's man tits ride their own bike to work every day or do they fit on his handlebars? Just curious.
I got a Sierra Club mailing with a nice picture of a cute cuddly polar bear on it today. Polar bears are neat, but if you get too close they will eat you.
More to the point, they don't work for a paycheck, take their kids to daycare so they can cover the mortgage, and they sure as hell don't vote. Joe and Jane Sixpack DO do these things, and they aren't going to give a rat's ass about fucking polar bears.
They want to know they can get around, spend as little time as possible commuting and as much time as possible taking care of business. Voting no on prop 1 pushes them and us in the way wrong direction. Voting yes moves us in the right direction- of getting things done, making the commute more bearable, and getting ourselves out of this fucking mess we're in.
Mark my words: ST2 will not be back alone. Not next year, not ever. To think otherwise is naive in the core. Vote yes for a real transit system and some reasonable road improvements.
Yes, I am just going to quote clarity because that is exactly right:
"Mark my words: ST2 will not be back alone. Not next year, not ever. To think otherwise is naive in the core. Vote yes for a real transit system and some reasonable road improvements."
I will add also to think otherwise it to completely ignore Seattle history when it comes to mass transit. A No vote, however, is perfectly in step with our tradition as a do-nothing, regional-class city.
Oh for Christ's sake, of course ST2 will be back. The first time Sound Move was on the ballot, in 1995, it failed, it part becuase it was $7 billion. The movers & shakers pared it down to $3.5 billion and tried again, and it passed overwhelmingly, thanks to a better written plan.
the first time monorail was on the ballot, in 1997, it only got 51.7%. After the city council tossed it out (2000), it was "re-elected" with 57%, thanks to a better written plan.
This is a bad plan. I love polar bears, but I also want my grandkids to be able to afford to build transit lines -- especially to all the places IN SEATTLE that aren't included in this particular version. And I sure as hell don't want all these highway lanes. Fix 520, fine. Ditch (pardon the pun) the rest.
Dig a grave for Prop 1. It's so dead.
@9, So victory is getting less light rail? And while yes Sound move came back, forward thrust did not. Not to mention that the worst road project in the Plan, 405 is going to be built anyways, it just might take longer. 520 as well is going to be replaced, just without HOV or bike lanes. Go actually read the fucking plan most of the roads projects are local intersections and the like.
As for the Sierra Club, there political abilities leave much to be desired. Hell Kemper and crew do a better job. Their mailings are dumb and they target the wrong areas. Last weekend they did an oh so environmentally friendly lit bomb in the U-District. Nothing like targeting an area full of non-residents and non-voters. Might as well canvased tent city while their at it.
If Prop 1 goes down the leg is certainly bringing the roads part back first, though not likely in 08. ST2 will have a hard fight to come back. Plus governance reform, which was barely stopped last session will become a near certainty. If you think a panel with lots of rural members all wielding a veto will put together a plan better then this one your dreaming.
You must have relegated the school board races to the 2nd string while Josh and Erica did the big stuff else how does Sherry Carr go from being a brainy pragmatic white Democrat , and someone Josh wished were running for something
like city council to an overrated PTA mom? Because of intelligent design? Hard to keep up with you crazy kids
BTW, when you all grow up and maybe have families, youll figure out that its PTA moms who do all the work, and they suck it up to do it because they know it has to be done and no one else will. Youll see.
You should probably stick to the races where you actually follow the politics and know the issues.
Forward thrust transit was on the ballot in 1968 and 1970. Many of the taxes did pass providing sewage treatment plants, Lake Washington clean-up, regional parks, the King Dome and more. The second vote was held during a big economic downturn and was fought by the real estate, labor and anti-tax interests.
It is beyond naive to believe that more transit votes won't be back.
The tunnel to the UW may be started next year - if the proponents are telling the truth and there is enough money to do it - so what's the hurry to put a 50 year tax and a twenty plus year build-out plan on the ballot.
Would we build to Overlake if MSFT wasn't there? Will MSFT be there in twenty years and if so will it be anything like what it today? Why didn't ST put a ten year plan on the ballot? Finish the line to Snohomish County line all with North King County funds.
Why not specify whether the 520 bridge will be a 6 laner with 4 10 foot shoulders and a bike lane making it 131' wide - twice what it is now - with a viaduct going over the ship canal next to the canoe dock, this is actually a new viaduct highway. It is amazing how little the environmentalists care about the damage 520 does to a really beautiful place but were so concerned about 3/4 of a mile along the gritty waterfront.
Well, there goes Seattle. Shackling itself to the automobile as it goes over the cliff. Such a shame to see the Stranger, of all people, buying into the BS.
The Stranger's staff needs an education on the concept of peak oil. If they understood it they would realize that the new roads projects would be irrelevant.
@9, you don't get it. This isn't about something a transportation plan being "better written", this is about creating a regional coalition to build long-term solutions. Your examples are painful, because they are the veritable exceptions that prove the rule. The rule? Puget Sound as a region doesn't support transit investments. The first RTA vote in 1995 failed because our friends in Pierce and Snohomish counties didn't want all that rail. They killed it. It was scaled back in 1996, but it squeaked by, with just 0.1 percent in Pierce county.
The monorail was a Seattle-only vote. We can pass Seattle-only transit solutions anytime we want, but it won't fix the commutes to Redmond, Everett, and Tacoma.
That's exactly why we have a regional transportation authority. But it means we need to bring people in other counties along for the ride. The system is basically like the electoral college. Any plan has to be approved by all three counties. The recent Elway poll shows that in the taxing district, separate roads and transit plans fail badly.
We need a regional compromise, and Prop 1 is exactly that.
My polar bear Sierra Club No on RTID/ST2 sign is hanging out on my porch as we speak.
Want global warming? Vote for it.
Want transit? Vote for ST2.1 in Feb 08.
No rail plan is going to be passed that does not provide something for Pierce County, Snohomish County, and the Eastside. Seattle cannot go it alone, and the transit problem is regional anyway.
Anybody who wants rail that only helps Seattle doesn't want rail, because it's not happening without the more urbanized suburbs. That's particularly true within Sound Transit with its subarea equity. For every line added in the city you need to add a similar size line in every other subarea, or else you're not going to get a majority of votes. Even if subarea equity was not formally required, you'd still need regional balance to get the necessary votes. Those are the politics at work here.
The Sierra Club has bad-mouthed Eastside rail, even though Seattle benefits from that rail almost equally because of the large number of people using that rail to come to and from the city. If Prop 1 fails any new proposal will have to have the Eastside line or else it's politically dead. The same goes for South King County--if not a line from the airport south, they'll need something or else people will vote no. I challenge those who want a vote on a different plan later to come up with a plan that's balanced enough to actually pass. If you actually took that seriously you'd end up with something a lot like ST2. So if ST2 has the politically viable plan, why vote against it? It makes no sense.
Yes on Prop 1 is the only responsible vote.
Will@16: Global warming is happening with or without Prop 1. It will only be stabilized at sustainable levels by measures that have nothing to do with Prop 1 pro or con. That whole line of argument is a red herring. If you want regional climate change legislation, get yourself and your Sierra Club friends cracking on a carbon tax or greater incentives and/or mandates for low-carbon cars and power plants.
If your issue is that you don't want any roads built and you'd prefer the additional cars in the region over the next 25 years use existing roads rather than have a rail alternative, vote no on Prop 1. But don't pretend this is a vote for the environment. It's a vote against cars because you don't like them, real costs and benefits of driving aside.
Not Prop One @ 9
Oh for Christ's sake, of course ST2 will be back. The first time Sound Move was on the ballot, in 1995, it failed, it part because it was $7 billion. The movers & shakers pared it down to $3.5 billion and tried again, and it passed overwhelmingly, thanks to a better written plan.
"Better written plan"? Is this the better written plan that said that Link light rail would be running in 2006 from the UW to SeaTac at a cost of 1.9 billion dollars? You know, the "better written" plan that was a total lie. The "better written" plan that ended up costing twice as much and doesn't reach the UW. The "better written" plan that was a total load of shit.
The first time monorail was on the ballot, in 1997, it only got 51.7%. After the city council tossed it out (2000), it was "re-elected" with 57%, thanks to a better written plan.
Jesus, you just can't stop shooting yourself in the foot. The monorail, yeah, that was a completely brilliant "better written" plan. Taxes were collected, millions of dollars were spent, property was condemned and nothing was built. Someone made a lot of money from that boondoggle, too bad that it came at the expense of Seattle taxpayers and property owners getting bent over and dry fucked in the ass.
Sound Transit and the monorail passed not because they had better written plans, but because they had better written lies the second time around. Sound Transit backers were either lying or incompetent when they made their claims in 1996 and I don't see anything that prevents them from fucking us over again with ST2 and doing exactly the same thing where they reduce the scope of the project while raising the costs. Sorry, but I'm voting no on Prop 1, it doesn't fix needed roads and giving more money to Sound Transit given their record makes about as much sense as sending more troops into Iraq.
You guys bitched and moaned about Tim Burgess and his work for CWA, and then endorsed him. Knowing full well that he co owned a company which profited millions for several years from one of the most christian right organizations, which is a very legitimate concern...and you endorsed Tim.I'm not even gay. I'm a straight women who is aware that CWA is anti feminist in addition to anti-choice, anti-gay, anti-public school-I don't like it.You made it clear you dislike David but why didn't you just do no endorsement? Is Tim really the lesser two evils?
You guys are bunch of punk ass bitches, and you need to grow up.
Those additional cars WILL NOT MATERIALIZE. Washington could build all the extra lanes and freeways they wanted to and it wouldn't change the fact that driving is about to become very unaffordable.
So when that happens, we won't have any light rail at all. None. Thanks, Stranger.

There are definitive times in the year when sweet treats are consumed en masse, namely Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, Valentine's Day and Easter. These indulgent confections include everything from homemade candies to fluffy cupcakes, sweet breads and decadent pies. Whatever style of cuisine your menu offers, there's an opportunity to increase sales beginning in the fall and lasting well into spring.
Will your restaurant be ready for the crowds of sweet-seeking customers?
Halloween, according to the National Retail Federation, will be celebrated by 170 million people this year and consumers are expected to spend $8 billion getting into the spirit. Although many of these dollars are spent on costumes, decorations and packaged candy, portions of this enormous dollar amount can also be accounted for in food and beverage sales. Cash in on the haunted frenzy and advertise to your customers where they are likely to find you. One such place is on the online social pin board, Pinterest, where Halloween enthusiasts are looking for costume and party ideas.
How to Use Pinterest to Advertise Your Seasonal Treats
Photograph your house-made sweets such as cookies, cupcakes, pies or candies and pin it to your restaurant's Pinterest board. Write a short caption under the pin such as "Cookie Crumble Caramel Apples at Mandy's Restaurant." Next, link your website directly to the picture. This ensures that when someone clicks on the picture, they are directed right to your homepage, or better yet, to your order form for carryout orders. Pro Tip: The more inciting the photos, the more 'pins' you'll get, in turn bringing in more profit for your business.
The ghouls and goblins will be out in full force for Halloween festivities. Make sure you're giving a shout out to your homemade candies. Whether you're throwing a Halloween bash, or featuring special desserts, Pinterest is a great platform to showcase all that your business has to offer.Halloween Ideas on Pinterest
Thanksgiving begins the official start to full indulgence in comfort foods and annual treats such as pumpkin pie. Consumers will look to Pinterest with the same baited interest of hosting the perfect dinner or bringing the yummiest dish to a dinner party. Others will be looking to avoid kitchen duty all together and are looking for the perfect restaurant for their holiday meal. Whether you are looking to appease only one or both of these demographics, it remains a wise strategy to use your dessert selection as an enticing tool for attracting customers.
Thanksgiving Ideas on Pinterest
As soon as the chestnuts begin to roast on the open fire, you should be promoting your Christmas goodies to the masses. If you're offering special catering packages or cookie bundles, Pinterest is the place to show the world what's available for the holidays. Prove to your customers that you're the one stop shop for the holidays. Although Pinterest is a great catalyst for advertising your treats, another great tactic is to use small sampler dishes as tempting reasons to return for the big holiday meal.Christmas Ideas on Pinterest
How to Use Sampler Dishes to Promote Your Thanksgiving Sweets
Choose from a variety of sample dishes, sample glasses, tasting spoons, and disposable sample dishes to artfully display samples or economically priced small bites. Use these samples as a preview or teaser of your Thanksgiving menu. You may also consider putting together a limited time menu of mini-desserts that showcase all of your house-made treats for the holiday season.
Christmas is often seen as the most indulgent time of the year. With parties and get-togethers taking place weeks before and after the big day, customers are more apt to make meal times linger on to dessert and after dinner drinks. Your customers are also looking for options for making entertaining easier to plan and execute. Be there for them. Use mini-desserts, tasting courses and creative take-out packaging to encourage ordering from your dessert menu.
Another saccharine time of year, Valentine's Day, is when customers are on the hunt for something sweet for their sweetheart. The National Retail Federation cited a total of $1.5 billion spent on candy alone for February of 2011. Easter also tops off the list for the candy-loving time of the year with $2 billion spent in 2012 on treats including chocolate eggs and jelly beans. Capture the attention and palates of your sweet seeking customers with house-made sweets and pastry perfect tarts, bakery fresh cakes, cupcakes, pies and cookies with captivating displays.
How to Use Display Cases to Promote Holiday Treats and Sweets in Your Restaurant
When the department stores Bloomingdales or Barney's decorate their window displays for the holidays in New York City, everyone takes notice. These retail operators have fully realized how to play to their customers' fantasies. Their displays entice and attract customers, many of whom may not have really intended on shopping that day. Your restaurant has the same power to inspire a captive audience with pie stands, tiered display stands, cake stands and bakery display cases.
Work with the space your restaurant has to create a tempting visual display. Although you may not have a professional set designer on your staff, take notice of some key elements within your location. Note where customer traffic flows naturally, this is usually near exit and entry points. Put your best stuff front and center and keep it looking fresh and clean. Consider using your entire restaurant as a showcase. Keep a tiered display stand with sweet treats placed near tables, so guests can see the treats when they are ordering. If your restaurant has a bakery display case, dress it up for the occasion. Use holiday themed décor to create an interesting visual for customers as they browse the case's contents.
Whatever the time of year or occasion, keep your sweet promotions interesting, engaging and relevant in the minds of your customers. Play to all of the senses with visually stunning displays, scrumptious sample tasting and playful desserts arrangements that will tempt your customers for every special occasion to come.

You May Be Able to Use Your Xbox 360 Headset With Xbox One
Written Thursday, June 27, 2013 By Lee BradleyView author's profile
Microsoft is working on an adapter to make Xbox 360 headsets work with the upcoming Xbox one.
That's according to a tweet by the Xbox Support account, which was asked, "Will current headsets such as X11 and Astro A40 work properly on the new consoles? Haven't seen info on pad connectivity."
Xbox Support replied, "We are working to develop an adapter for current wired headsets to connect. More details as we approach launch."
Should Microsoft solve the problem, it's good news for gamers who own expensive headsets.
The recently revealed Xbox One headset (pictured below) does not come bundled with the console, as the platform holder believes that the Xbox One's Kinect microphone is a suitable replacement.

Counting Down the Days
The art on wall calendars can reflect everything from cute puppies to beautiful landscapes. Too bad they expire at the end of the year. Give them a second life as wrapping paper. Provided you haven't scribble appointments into the grids, those pages can make an interesting wrapping paper patterns, too. You might even consider marking uniform red Xs in date boxes to convey the countdown to Christmas, or circle birthdates for a personal touch.

AbstractAs-received BaTiO3 nanopowders of average grain sizes 50 nm and 100 nm were functionalized by (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) and mixed with poly(methyl methacrylate)/toluene solution. The nanocomposite solution was spin coated on Si substrates to form thin films. The photoluminescence spectrum of the pure powder was composed of a bandgap emission at 3.0 eV and multiple bands centered about 2.5 eV. Surface functionalization of the BaTiO3 powder via APTES increases overall luminescence at room temperature while only enhancing bandgap emission at low-temperature. Polymer coating of the functionalized nanoparticles significantly enhances bandgap emissions while decreasing emissions associated with near-surface lattice distortions at 2.5 eV.

White Navy Bean Soup With Ham Hocks
Total Time
Prep 10 mins
Cook 10 hrs
Ham hocks are available at your butcher. Okay, you might not have one. Do yourself a favor, and get to know one. If that means that you actually have to talk to the guy at the meat counter at the supermarket, so be it. Ask if you can get some hocks in. You would be surprised at the cost of the hocks. They are pure gold, and priced like dirt.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 2 small ham hocks (one could use a bone if you like, or just chopped ham.)
- 450 g white navy beans, washed and picked
- 2 liters water (This is to start, you will need more later.)
- 1 bay leaf
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 medium onion, diced
- 2 small russet potatoes
- 1 lemon, juice of
- to taste kosher salt
- to taste fresh ground pepper
- Pick through beans to make sure there are no stones. Nothing sucks like breaking your teeth on a stone when it should be a bean!
- Place the beans in the crock pot; cover with water.
- Set on high cooking and cook for an hour.
- Now, some of you will argue that we should or should not season the beans because of the skins. Well, it is a moot point here as we are adding something salty to it anyway. Moving right along.
- Ham hocks go inches If you cannot find ham hocks, don't worry. The recipe will be fine. Just throw in a ham bone. No ham bone? You're killing me here! You could just use a couple slices of ham.
- Add your bay leaf to the crock pot. Don't worry – it will float. No panic. Really!
- Hack up the onion, a small dice is fine, toss it into te crock pot.
- Mince the garlic, again – you guesed it – into the crockpot. Are you with me so far?.
- Hack the potatoes into a medium dice, toss them into the crock pot. You will be needing them to give your soup some body – that stick-to-your-ribs quality. Besides, they are in season.
- Set all of that onto 10 hour on low cooking.
- Just before serving, remove the meat and bay leaf from the soup. Once the meat is cold enough to handle, shred it up!
- Puree up half of the soup with a hand blender. Do it right in the crockpot! Why waste or clean another vessel. If you have dishwashers, then don't worry about it. If you don't – you get the idea.
- Put the meat back into the soup.
- Now is the time to adjust for seasoning. We start off with the lemon juice, then we adjust the salt and pepper in stages.
- Taste a spoon full, think about the saltiness or the pepperiness. *I am sure that should be a word!*.
- Once the soup is where you would like it to be, ladle it up and serve it with that local artisan bread.
- Props to you! You just cooked something easy for Winter.
Most Helpful
Loved the results of this recipe! The soup is very filling, and tasted awesome. I did not puree a portion of the soup at the end as suggested, and it was plenty thick. Don't let the metric measurements throw you off, it's easy to google the conversions (also, there's an app for that). My father-in-law is in his 70's, and he said it was like the soup he grew up on.
This recipe is simple and awesome. Didn't have enough navy beans. Made up the difference with black beans. Slow cooked about 11 hours. Love the addition of the lemon juice. Best batch of beans I've ever made and I do beans a lot!

Academic Flexibility:
After working a full time job, going to not one but two schools it's very easy and flexible for me to go to the university of Phoenix.
Tuition & Financial Aid:
Everything was very detailed explanations on my funds.
Academic Experience:
My specific major is a associates in arts for health care administration. I just love how simple but yet challenging they make it. You do 8 discussions in the week and some many assignments. They even have an app for your cell phone to help you do your school work.
Academic Experience:
They have interactive simulation you do for assignments,if you need help all you got to do is ask,
Student Body:
The students are nice and everyone works as a team.
Campus Resources:
They have so many resources to help you succeed. I'm going to class online and I just love their interactive simulation.
Overall Experience:
There is two reasons I would choose the University of Phoenix over any other colleges such as their scholarship program and their discounts. When I first started looking for schools I was looking to go next year. I called a few universities I was interested in and all of them said, after I get the loans I would still have to pay a thousand dollars a year in which I didn't have. so I called the University of Phoenix and spoke with a school adviser. She said they had a scholarship program going on just till the end of November and since I worked for the State of Oklahoma I can get a 10 percent discount. That helped me out a lot just by even being able to go to college and not pay while I'm in school. Between my discount and the scholarship they provided it saved me a little over $5,000!

Most of the former Peter Cooper Glue Factory on Fifth Avenue in Oak Creek burned down more than two decades ago, and what remains — set back several hundred yards from the road, behind a locked, chainlink fence that warns, "No trespassing" — is not an impressive sight.
At more than 100 years old, the massive brick building appears dilapidated, with smashed windows and crumbling concrete. Surrounded by other businesses that have since closed up shop, too, the rest of the site looks just as forlorn.
But it is not those images that draw curious visitors. Rather, it is the promise of what they might see or hear or feel; the promise of something ghostly lurking near the site that could leave them screaming or fleeing in terror.
Urban legend has it that as many as 30 employees died while working at the factory. Many were murdered. Some, perhaps, were turned into glue.
Sherry Strub, author of "Milwaukee Ghosts," has heard a variety of haunted tales about the site, which she recounts in her book.
"You've got one story that will say two people died there, and you've got another story that say 30 people were murdered there," Strub said.
The Oak Creek Historical Society's collection of mostly newspaper clippings and old photographs of the glue factory and surrounding community, formerly Carollville, does not include any mention of employee deaths.
Despite the lack of historical basis, a common thread is the sense of evil and danger perceived by visitors who have ventured into the building, Strub said. For those who are inclined to believe, that means something.
"When you have groups of people that come away with the same story time after time after time … there has to be some basis to it," she said.
Haunted or not, the property's trespassing signs should be taken seriously. The site is dangerous, Oak Creek Police Chief Thomas Bauer said, and his department follows strict orders from the property owner to arrest anybody found on the property.

Tip of the Day
Removing Devices from iTunes in the Cloud
If you've subscribed to iTunes Match, or used any of your computers or iOS devices to re-download or automatically download purchased content, these devices become registered to your iTunes Store account. While there's normally little need to worry about this, Apple does enforce a maximum limit of ten (10) devices that can be used to access iTunes in the Cloud with a single iTunes account, which can become a problem for larger families and those who regularly upgrade or replace devices. Fortunately, you can easily remove these devices from your account if you've hit the maximum or simply want to clean out devices you're no longer using. Simply go to your iTunes Store account settings by selecting View My Account from the Store menu in iTunes, and then choose "Manage Devices" from the Account Information screen. This will display a list of all of the devices currently associated with your iTunes Store account for use with iTunes in the Cloud features with a "Remove" button beside each one. Keep in mind that removing a device in this manner does not automatically disable features such as iTunes Match on the device—you'll still need to do that directly on the device.

Anorexia Nervosa Health Center
Anorexia Revisited
"We knew that [anorexia] is very serious and is associated with high mortality [death rate]," researcher Stephan Zipfel, MD, tells WebMD. But the main message from their research, he says, is that earlier intervention and referral to specialized facilities are crucial to ensure better patient outcomes.
According to Anorexia Nervosa and Related Eating Disorders Inc. (ANRED), without treatment, up to 20% of people with serious eating disorders die. But with treatment, that number falls to 2-3%. In addition, they say, with treatment about 60% of people with eating disorders recover.
Persons with anorexia nervosa may display many warning signs including refusal to maintain a normal body weight, weighing 85% or less than is expected for age and height, denying the dangers of low weight, and reporting feeling fat even when very thin.
"If I were a parent of a child, or a spouse of an adult with anorexia nervosa, what this report would provide to me is evidence to use for lobbying for longer and better medical care, even in the face of limitations in health care resources," Cheryl L. Rock, PhD, RD, tells WebMD. "This illness may be more rare than something like breast cancer, but the total cost is enormous if not caught early and managed well." Rock is associate professor in the department of family and preventive medicine at the University of California, San Diego.
Zipfel says it's important that treatment of severely ill patients "be handled by an experienced and multidisciplinary treatment team in a specialty center." ANRED recommends that persons with eating disorders "get into treatment and stay there."
Vital Information:
- After a 21-year follow-up, researchers studying 77 patients with anorexia nervosa report one in four had a poor outcome. However, about half had recovered fully from the disease.
- Patients with a poor outcome waited longer to get treatment, failed to gain adequate weight while hospitalized, and had severe psychological and social problems.
- Observers note anorexia nervosa is a serious disease with a high death rate if untreated. Family members and doctors should intervene when people show the early signs of the disease, in order to increase chances of successful treatment.

Weather doesn't slow down area teams
Published: Wednesday, March 17, 2010 at 11:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, March 17, 2010 at 11:15 a.m.
GALLIANO — The South Lafourche boys and Assumption girls had no problems running away from the competition at Tuesday's Tarpon Relays.
But beating Mother Nature was another question for the Tarpons and Lady Mustangs.
With the skies threatening and chilly temperatures throughout the day at South Lafourche's Tarpon Memorial Stadium, South Lafourche and Assumption never let the conditions slow them down. They built early leads in the field events and keep the momentum going to capture the team titles.
By the time it started drizzling midway during the track events, the Tarpons and Lady Mustangs held an insurmountable leads and continued to build on it.
"The weather cooperated enough, so we were OK with that," South Lafourche coach Joey Guidroz said. "I just hope we can get to a meet where we can have some warm weather to run in. We haven't competed in any track weather yet because it's either been rainy or cold."
South Lafourche scored 150 points to easily win the boys' meet. The Tarpons were followed by South Terrebonne (81), Thibodaux (78), H.L. Bourgeois (65), Vandebilt Catholic (54), Terrebonne (52), Central Lafourche (38) and Assumption (33).
A pair of most valuable player performances paced the Tarpons to the first-place finish.
Rusty Borne was named the field MVP after winning the long jump and long jump.
Alton Jenkins captured the track MVP by winning the 100-meter and 200-meter dashes and ran legs on the Tarpons' winning 400-meter and 800-meter relay teams.
South Lafourche also placed first in three other events. Blaine Gisclair won the 1,600-meter and 3,200-meter runs, and Logan Harris captured the 100-meter hurdles.
"We are well rounded, especially with the sprinters that we picked up," Guidroz said. "We are solid in the distance and in the field events. Once we built our lead in the field events, we were able to hold it on and add to it. We are satisfied with our performance and we are going at a good pace."
Assumption followed a similar path scoring 142 points to easily outdistance the field. Following the Lady Mustangs were South Lafourche (84), Vandebilt Catholic (82), H.L. Bourgeois (80), Thibodaux (73), Terrebonne (36), Central Lafourche (30) and South Terrebonne (30).
Tuesday's win was Assumption's third of the season. The Lady Mustangs also won Thibodaux's Pepsi Relays on March 5 and South Terrebonne's Gator Relays on Friday.
An MVP performance also paced the Lady Mustangs to the team title. Barlitra Dirance won the track award by posting wins in the 100-meter and 200-meter dashes and ran legs on Assumption's winning 400-meter and 800-meter relay teams.
The Lady Mustangs didn't stop there. Other individual winners were Cierra Bell (discus), Chelsie Bergeron (high jump) and Sage Crochet (3,200-meter run). Assumption's 1,600-meter relay team also placed first.
"We did well in the field events and built that early lead," Assumption coach Chad Landry said. "We scored in almost every event and that was a big key. We're trying to take them one track meet at a time. We are little tired after running two meets in five days."
Terrebonne's Sierra Lyons was named the girls field MVP after winning the shot put and placing third in the discus.
Visit www.houmatoday.com or www.dailycomet.com for complete results from the Tarpon Relays.
The Terrebonne Parish Relays are scheduled to be held on March 23 at Terrebonne High's Tom B. Smith Stadium in Houma.

Secret place by LucasParolinWatch

This is a secret place... you'll never find it!
after a few feedbacks, I did an update to the image, don't know if you can see the difference, but I feel it's better
Ps: also... there is a cat in this image, just saying...
Landscape done at livestream, soon I'll post the time lapse

Landscape done at livestream, soon I'll post the time lapse
Nice detail and coloring
It looks like the Yangtse River in China. It reminds me of the Three Gorges.
F*** my neighborhood! I want to live there!
hey man
is this on illustrator or painting??
its amazing
is this on illustrator or painting??
its amazing
I found the cat! Wonderful picture. Great color choice and lighting.
I had a dream once that look crazy similar to this, I always wanted the image as a mural in my room. This is incredible. Love it.
that's so awesome!! It was a good dream I assume...?
Aw crappity, now it'll bug me till I find cat...
Outstanding work! What did you use to create it? I haven't heard of livestream.
Thank you very much! This is a digital painting that I did in photoshop. Livestream is a service that can broadcast you screen, so people may watch what you're doing, with chat and all, so than can ask questions as well
Oh wow! Livestream sounds pretty cool. I wouldn't dare try it on my antiquated old Dell. But maybe one day when I get a PC that can handle it! lol
hehehe, cool... now can you find the cat on my last one?
Beautiful. I love your technique and use of color.
I thought that the cat was under the huts, but then I found it, cute little tail
Oh wow this is gorgeous
I love it! The ship is amazing and its just... wow..
looks like Vietnamese landscape wonderful piece of art!
surely! First I did a thumbnail of the idea, when I painted on a big canvas the colors weren't coming out good... so I stopped the painting and studied some of those asian Landscapes, some are form a chinese river, then I got back to the painting after the study... trying to remember what I learn and came up with this!
Thank you so much for such a detailed response! This could help me to improve my painting skills as I would love to become a landscape painter someday And this art is an inspiration for me!
cool! That's great! If you want you should do it more! In fact... what are you doing right now?
Oh my goodness...amazing work
lovely work and lovely cat
Awesome art!
Muito bom cara! Animal!
MAJESTIC!!! I wish this is my hometown hahaa ~

Has anyone tried making their own bottling wax using part beeswax? What percentage of beeswax did you use and how well did it work (coming on and coming off)?
I'm aware that this doesn't include beeswax.
Use Crayons and Hot Glue Gun sticks melted together (melt glue first) at a ratio of equal number of crayons sticks to glue sticks.

GSD Course Bulletin - Spring 2012
This term's information was last refreshed on 12 MAY 2015 14:53:34.
Courses taught by Felipe Correa
01605: A Line in the Andes: Rethinking Quito through its sub-surface (STU 0160500)
Architecture, Urban Planning and Design
Option Studio - 8 credits - Limited enrollment
Tuesday Thursday 2:00 - 6:00
Felipe Correa
Course Description
This option studio examines how the introduction of a new metro transit system can serve as the backbone for the development of more comprehensive urban interventions within the context of a mid-size South American capital city. The studio will explore how the stations of a new mass transit system, soon to be implemented in Quito (Ecuador), can become epicenters of a much richer and varied programmatic brief.
The new "metro" project, conceived as a 15 station / 23 kilometer long line, will serve as a central spine further complemented by existing and new rapid bus lines along the east-west corridors in the city. Such an unprecedented project in the context of a topographically complex geography presents the current administration with an immense logistical challenge. More importantly, the project opens up a significant opportunity to rethink portions of the city beyond the basic requirements of the metro in order to capitalize on the urban opportunities an infrastructural project of this scope and ambition can bring to the city. This joint Architecture and Urban Design Studio will take the surface footprints of the sub-surface network (the metro stations) as focal points for new centralities in the city that can establish a spatial framework for a more ambitious transformative process in the city. The studio will consider how an expanded programmatic toolkit, one that goes beyond the mono-functional objective of simply solving a transportation deficiency in the city, may incorporate into the system a larger set of cultural, educational and recreational facilities synthesized in precise design projects. The armature of the new metro system can result in a far more ambitious and comprehensive network of collective spaces with diverse scales and areas of influence. The research and pedagogical bearings of the studio will focus on how small and intermediate scale interventions, heavily driven by sectional articulations, can take advantage of the "metro" system in order to establish a constellation of projects that, through accretion, can exercise substantial change at a metropolitan scale.
05211: Cities by Design II (SES 0521100)
Urban Planning and Design
Lecture - 4 credits
Tuesday Thursday 10:00 - 11:30 Gund 111
Rahul Mehrotra, Eve Blau, Jana Cephas, Felipe Correa, Peter Rowe, A. Hashim Sarkis
Course Description
No Prerequisites. The year-long Cities by Design course is mandatory for all incoming 2011-12 Master's of Urban Design Students. All other students are welcome to enroll in the course by semester, and need not do so in sequence.
'Cities by Design' is a year-long course that studies urban form. Each semester, 'Cities by Design' will explore five urban case studies to expose students to a range of factors that affect the design of contemporary cities in various geographical contexts. The case studies will focus on both the urban condition as a whole by exploring processes of urban evolution, and on the study of urban fragments or projects. Each case study will be taught during a two-week module, comprised of four lectures and one discussion section. The Spring Case Studies include: Quito, Detroit, Istanbul, Shanghai, and Berlin. These are distinct from those presented during Fall 2011.
Two main pedagogical objectives guide the course. The course will allow students to establish a broader definition of the 'urban,' forging commonalities amongst a diversity of cities. It will also provide the historical and comparative material to identify the urban characteristics and design strategies that render particular cities distinct. Comparative analyses of the urban case studies will be guided by the following eight themes, which will be explored through the lectures, section discussions, and assigned readings:
1.The city's genealogy and key historical events, phases of development & patterns of growth. The ways in which the terrain, geography, and infrastructural development constrain and present opportunities for the city's development and ambitions.
2.The city's planning and design culture and decision-making institutions.
3.The challenges that social equity present to planning and design in the city.
4.The orchestration of the city's relationship to the broader region.
5.How the particular city contributes to a definition of the 'urban' condition.
6.The framing and design of key urban projects/ case studies.
7.The city's planning institutions, historical conditions, urban forms, or ambitions, etc. that have contributed to its iconicity in a global context.
Term grades will be based on attendance and participation in both lectures and section discussions, biweekly response papers based on assigned readings, and a final term paper.

BEARHUG http://www.smogon.com/bw/pokemon/beartic [Overview]
How much more badass can you get when you're a polar bear? Unlike its aesthetically-pleasing NU friend Charizard, Beartic can actually function in the treacherous waters of the Uber tier. While it might look like just another crappy addition to the game, Beartic has a couple of tricks up its furry sleeves: Swift Swim combined with Ice-type STAB, as well as access to Encore and Swords Dance for setup opportunities. This means that, unlike other Swift Swim sweepers, Beartic can steamroll through Grass Arceus, Lugia, and Giratina without much trouble at all. However, even with the Speed boost from Swift Swim, Beartic's Speed is still pretty unimpressive, leaving it unable to outspeed Choice Scarf users that most other Swift Swim sweepers have absolutely no trouble outspeeding. Additionally, just like most other Ice-type Pokemon, Beartic is weak to Stealth Rock, and even with Encore, it finds itself difficult to set up. Also, while Beartic's Ice typing gives excellent super effective coverage, its attacks are still relatively weak against Pokemon they hit neutrally, as its STAB attacks are not boosted in the rain like those of other Swift Swim sweepers. Despite these flaws, no team can ignore the strengths that Beartic brings to the table unless they want to learn the hard way.
 [SET] name: Swords Dance move 1: Swords Dance move 2: Icicle Crash move 3: Low Kick / Superpower move 4: Encore item: Life Orb ability: Swift Swim nature: Adamant / Jolly evs: 252 Atk / 4 SpD / 252 Spe [SET COMMENTS]
With max Speed and Swift Swim, Beartic reaches 396 Speed in the rain, just outspeeding Mewtwo. While nothing spectacular, it is just fast enough to run a sweeping set. With a Swords Dance boost, Beartic becomes extremely powerful, especially when backed by physical Ice-type STAB, smiting many of the Uber physical walls with super effective damage. After a Swords Dance, Icicle Crash OHKOes physically defensive Giratina after Stealth Rock damage. Low Kick hits most Pokemon that resist Icicle Crash, easily OHKOing Steel Arceus. Superpower is an option over Low Kick to OHKO Jirachi and Manaphy (two Pokemon that resist Icicle Crash and take a pittance from Low Kick) after Spikes, but Low Kick is generally more consistent. Superpower always OHKOes Darkrai without a boost, regardless of Stealth Rock, but if Stealth Rock is up, Low Kick gets the job done most of the time anyway. In the last slot, Encore is easily the best option, as it gives Beartic setup opportunities from support and setup moves, such as Calm Mind.
 [Additional Comments]
A Jolly nature allows Beartic to outspeed neutral natured base 90 Choice Scarf users and Deoxys-A, as well as minimum Speed Groudon in the sun. However, not only is the drop in power significant, but many of these Pokemon also run positive natures, which means Beartic would be outsped even if it runs a Jolly nature. Groudon only requires 12 Speed EVs to outspeed Jolly Beartic anyway. Substitute can potentially replace Encore to avoid status and Dragon Tail, but Encore is generally much more useful for the setup opportunities. In terms of the item choice, Life Orb is generally the superior choice, as it provides Beartic with the additional power needed to KO certain threats, such as Giratina.

As Beartic's Speed is merely acceptable with the boost from rain, it is absolutely trash without it. This means that Kyogre support is essential to Beartic's success in the tier. Luring out and destroying Tyranitar, Hippowdon, Abomasnow, and, most importantly, Groudon is crucial. Bulk Up mixed Dialga is excellent at luring out pretty much all of these weather inducers, destroying Groudon and Hippowdon with Draco Meteor and Tyranitar and Abomasnow with Aura Sphere or Brick Break. Mixed Zekrom is also fairly proficient at luring out Groudon and Hippowdon and crippling them with Draco Meteor.

If Beartic is using Low Kick, Manaphy and Jirachi wall Beartic and can KO it with either rain boosted Surf or Iron Head. Max HP Fighting Arceus can take a boosted Icicle Crash and OHKO in return with Judgment. Latias can easily defeat both Fighting Arceus and Manaphy. Lugia and Giratina are both excellent counters to Fighting Arceus. Grass Arceus and Electric Arceus also counter Manaphy. As for Jirachi, it is generally easily walled by bulky Ground-types such as Sand Force Hippowdon, Ground Arceus, Landorus-T, and Gliscor, provided that they avoid paralysis from Body Slam. Ghost Arceus and Giratina with Will-O-Wisp also make Jirachi a non-factor. While Beartic is excellent at taking out traditional physical walls such as Lugia, Giratina, defensive Normal Arceus, and to a certain extent, Groudon, Icicle Crash still falls short of OHKOing bulky Pokemon that aren't weak to it, such as Fighting Arceus. This is why entry hazard support helps Beartic out greatly. Deoxys-S, Ferrothorn, Deoxys-A, and Skarmory are all excellent Spikes users.

Even with the Swift Swim boost, Beartic is still pretty slow. Any Choice Scarf user with base 90 Speed or above can outspeed Beartic and revenge kill it. In particular, Choice Scarf Kyogre can take both Icicle Crash and Low Kick and OHKO in return with Surf. Deoxys-A and Deoxys-S both naturally outspeed Beartic as well. Groudon, provided it runs a minimum of 12 Speed EVs, will always outspeed Beartic in the sun, while Rayquaza has Air Lock to neuter Beartic's Swift Swim Speed boosts and OHKO Beartic. Lugia and defensive Normal Arceus hard counter Rayquaza sets, while Choice Scarf Genesect, Jirachi, Palkia, Salamence, and Garchomp can revenge Dragon Dance variants. Wobbuffet makes an excellent teammate for Beartic, as it can trap and remove many Choice Scarf users, as well as Encoring support moves for Beartic to set up on. Giratina-O, as well as bulky Steel-types such as Jirachi, Scizor, and Steel Arceus check Deoxys-A relatively well.
 [Other Options]
Aqua Jet can be used to revenge kill Blaziken and Deoxys-A, but that is pretty much where its usefulness ends. Stone Edge can be used to OHKO Ho-Oh without a boost, but is useless otherwise. Bulk Up can be used to make Beartic relatively resilient to physical attacks, but Swords Dance is better in general. Taunt can allow Beartic to set up on Skarmory without being forced out, as well as dealing with Multiscale Lugia a lot better. Other potential sets that Beartic can run are SubPunch and Endure + Flail, but these are rather gimmicky and there is generally no reason to run them over the Swords Dance set.
 [Checks and Counters]
Scizor is probably the best Beartic counter. It is bulky and light enough to take unboosted Low Kicks and Superpowers, while easily wiping out Beartic with Bullet Punch. It also has Roost to heal off any damage that Beartic does to it. If Forretress carries Gyro Ball, it can also easily KO Beartic while taking little from Icicle Crash and Low Kick. Fighting Arceus can take a boosted Icicle Crash and Low Kick and OHKO with Judgment. Likewise, bulky Ghost Arceus can take anything that Beartic uses and OHKO with Focus Blast or burn Beartic with Will-O-Wisp. Physically defensive Kyogre can take a boosted Low Kick and OHKO with Surf or Scald. If Beartic uses Low Kick, Manaphy and Jirachi wall Beartic and KOs with rain boosted Surf or Iron Head. Metagross can take a +2 Low Kick and OHKO Beartic with Meteor Mash. Tentacruel resists both Icicle Crash and Low Kick and deals a lot of damage with Scald, but is generally losing if Scald fails to burn, as +2 Icicle Crash does over 65% to standard Tentacruel.

Most Choice Scarf users with base 90 Speed or more using a positive nature can revenge kill Beartic. Deoxys-A and Deoxys-S can also naturally outspeed it. Faster priority can also take down Beartic. Apart from the aforementioned Bullet Punch from Scizor, Extreme Killer Arceus and Rayquaza can deal heavy damage to Beartic with ExtremeSpeed. Otherwise, if you can take away the rain, Beartic becomes near useless most of the time. As long as it does not switch into Icicle Crash more than once, Groudon with 12 or more Speed EVs can always outspeed Beartic and KO with Stone Edge or a Fire-type move. Tyranitar that invest enough in Speed can also KO Beartic with Stone Edge or Fire Blast, as long as they avoid Low Kick.

On a Win2003 server, a site running Classic ASP (not asp.net) is having performance problems.
How can I monitor the performance of the connection pool?
The backend SQL Server database (on another server) is nowhere near breaking a sweat, and the server itself is also running fine.
I monitor "Request Execution Time" and "Requests Queued" - and when the problems appear, bot these counters shoot up rapidly - site gets slow an unresponsive - and then falls back to normal after 20-30 seconds (normal = 0 requests queued).
Now my gut feeling is telling me there must be an issue with connection pooling, since the error I get on the site is.
So again - how can I monitor if this is being caused by problems in the connection pooling?
