Skill Level Intermediate
All right, we are looking at an Illustrator file inside Illustrator CS4. This is a document that has multiple artboards in it. Illustrator calls its pages artboards and you can see I've got several of them here. What I want to do is place this file in InDesign, but choose which artboard I want to bring in to the InDesign document. Or maybe I want to bring all of them in or whatever. Right now, let's go take a look at what happens by default though. So let's jump back over to InDesign and we'll use our trusty Place command, Command+D or Ctrl+D, and navigate to our file.
There it is, Multiple_Artboards.AI. I am going to go ahead and click the Open button and that brings it in. This is the default experience though. I just get the one page, meaning the first artboard in the Illustrator file. I can go ahead, of course, and drag to place that and it brings it in. It looks beautiful. Wonderful, but where are those other artboards? So let's go ahead and delete that. You've got to do something along the way to get access to those multiple artboards. Command+D or Ctrl+D again. I am going to go ahead and choose the file and now you've got two choices here.
The Show Import Options, this is off by default, and the thing about it is it's a sticky setting. So when you turn this on, what happens is that InDesign intercepts any file that you place that has import options and brings up a dialog box in between you and InDesign where you specify things like in the case of Illustrator, which artboard you want, for instance. A lot of people don't like the fact that this is a sticky setting because they only need it occasionally, the next time they place a file, they forget and don't pay attention that it's turned on and they get intercepted by this dialog when they didn't really want to.
So here is an alternative. Instead of turning it on and leaving it on, if you hold down the Shift key when you click the Open button, that will temporarily invoke the import options dialog just this one time, very handy shortcut to know. Shift-click on Open. That brings up the import options for placing an Illustrator file. Now it's called Place PDF because that happens to be the native file format of Illustrator files. So don't get confused there, why it's called Place PDF? There is the name of the file and here you can actually toggle through and decide which page or which artboard you want to bring in.
Now you can go ahead and cycle through and get a little proxy preview of each page in the document and choose the specific one you want. That's pretty handy. You can even say, hey, I want all of them and what that's going to do is load them all into the place gun with a little bit of a trickery there which I'll explain in a minute. You can even, if you want, navigate and turn layers on and off. So even have that option. You can control the layer visibility of both a layered Illustrator file or a layered Photoshop file. Same technique here.
You just need to show the import options when you place any Photoshop file to have access to the layer visibility. Okay, you can also choose some options on how to crop the Illustrator file. You now have the ability to have a Bleed in Illustrator document you could crop to the bleed if you want. It is going to go with the default for now, Bounding Box. That's fine. I am going to go ahead and click OK and it's going to take a second. It's going to load the gun. Now it doesn't give you a number like placing multiple JPEGs, for example, or multiple tips, but if you notice real subtly, there's a little Acrobat icon and there is a plus sign next to it.
What that's trying to tell you is that even though you only see the first thumbnail, when you go ahead and drag place this out, it will then proceed to load the place cursor with the next artboard from the file because you remember, in the import options just a second ago, we chose all the pages instead of navigating to just a specific page. So if you want to get all of them, you certainly can, just by dragging and dropping, automatically loads the gun with the next artboard in the file. Incidentally, if you're placing a multiple-page PDF file, not just an Illustrator file but a multi -page PDF, same thing goes.
Show Import Options, choose All pages, and then you can drag-place each page in the PDF as a separate graphic. Pretty handy to have. So there you have it, the bonus secret shortcut there. And I'm going to go ahead and cancel this place just by clicking on the Selection tool. That bonus secret shortcut for temporarily getting access to the import options is just hold down the Shift key when you click the Open button in the Place dialog box.

I have a problem with my search results and I wonder if someone can help me.
When I search in my category "Groningen" ( a province) for all events taking place, all events appear into the results. And when I fill in e.g. "Noordhorn" and choose category "Groningen" it shows up. So far so good.
When I search the name of any event in category "Groningen", by typing it into the searchfield, and choose all categories ("alle provincies") , nothing appears. Events in "Groningen" are e.g. Aadorp, Noordhorn, Slochteren.
Note: All events in the other categories act normal when I choose the same options.
Perhaps the problem is that from the start of the building of the website I set the WP default category as "Groningen" . To tackle the problem mentioned above, I changed it in a unused category, but an event that I added after this change shows the same difficulty.

Child development specialists (and mothers) Anni Gethin, PhD, and Beth Macgregor challenge the wisdom of the popular "cry it out" philosophy and instead advocate a responsive parenting approach during the day and at night. Mining the latest scientific research, the authors show parents how to practice gentle bedtime techniques that respect a baby's neurological and emotional development. With this supportive, empowering guide, readers will:
• Learn why babies wake at night and need help to settle
• Understand how early parenting choices affect a baby's growing brain
• Examine why "sleep training" is risky, both in the short and long terms
• Discover how to create an effective sleep routine and safe sleeping environment
• Explore common baby sleep problems and how to cope with them
• Find out how tired moms and dads can build a support system (and stay sane)
Sensitive, responsive parenting establishes a powerful bond between baby and parent--a connection that lays the foundation for healthy emotional and psychological development. Filled with scientific evidence, stories from parents, and testaments from infant mental health authorities, Helping Baby Sleep gives conscientious moms and dads the insight and practical tools to help their babies thrive.
"Helping Baby Sleep offers tired parents fresh ideas about how to deeply connect with their infant or toddler to support the transition from wakefulness to sleep. The book is filled with beautifully translated, science-based concepts that are made accessible to parents of all backgrounds. The authors have done a masterful job of elucidating the importance of relationships in shaping the brain. Enjoy and sleep well!"
--Daniel J. Siegel, MD, author of Mindsight: The New Science of Personal Transformation, and coauthor of Parenting from the Inside Out
"Gethin and Macgregor have boldly and successfully waded into the complex issues of infant sleep, creating a guide that gives parents hope and support. A magnificent gift to mothers and fathers--superb."

Skip to comments.US will not make drastic budget cuts, Geithner tells Davos
Posted on 01/31/2011 6:36:20 PM PST by FromLori
Timothy Geithner, the US Treasury Secretary, appeared at the World Economic Forum in Davos to tell delegates that drastic spending cuts by the United States government was not a responsible way to bring down the countrys national debt.
The United States is the latest of many developing countries to face criticism from counterparts over unsustainable deficits and growing government debt. This criticism has grown since the US Congressional Budget Office revealed a record deficit of US $1.5 trillion for 2011.
In addition, congress will need to lift the debt ceiling past US $14.39 trillion before May to avoid a fiscal crisis within the government.
At Davos, therefore, delegates have been speculating over whether the US will be able to enact a sensible fiscal policy before there is a global rejection of the US dollar.
(Excerpt) Read more at story.argentinastar.com ...
So he is warning the other countries that we ride our huge deficits all the way to default?
Is it really up to him?
Geithner is a womyn's studies major who stumbled into a quantum physics class.
Is this guy is a total idiot? If my dept goes up, I cut spending, my dept goes down ... what am I missing? Please, someone help me here.
"Yes it will" Tea Party tells Geithner.
Timothy Geithner,
drastic spending cuts by the United States government was not a responsible way to bring down the countrys national debt.
There is NO political will to stop spending. If there was they`d have to admit is is socialist un-constitutional spending that is destroying the USA. They won`t admit it, that is their power that they will never give up
I saw him on the Charlie Rose show. He was tapping his wingtops a mile a minute like a nervous weasel.
You'll get yours, my pretty! And your little dog too!
Would someone tell little Timmy that those decisions are above his pay grade.
I wonder if Timmy also told them that he was going to help decrease the deficit this year by paying his taxes.
Isn't that the House's call, putz?
That's Great!
It almost seems he's dying for a collapse of the dollar, From. It is also interesting that we're hearing this from an Argentine news source.
Welcome to Free Republic!!
hide and watch you little tax dodging douchebag. The House controls the purse strings.
Soros owns the DNC.
Obama is his slave.
Soros makes his money when things loose value.
"I wonder if Timmy also told them that he was going to help decrease the deficit this year by paying his taxes."
I've noticed some dollar bills with the words 'TAX CHEAT' above Timmy's signature.
Whether it is his money or my money or our money, the theory stays the same. Reduce expenditures and debt goes down, right?
The people in DAVOS are probably shocked at the incompetency of this guy and his boss......
You know Bob I think he really is trying to collapse the dollar and that's pretty much all we have left...
"Mr. Geithner told the World Economic Forum in a one-on-one interview that emerging markets could manage their inflation problems better if they loosened their currencies links to the dollar, a measure that economists say would lead in most cases to an appreciation against the greenback."
Not trying to start an argument here, just trying to understand.
Great— Greece here we come
Gee, lacking any growth of the economy I would think it was the ONLY way to reduce the deficit.
But then, I dropped out of college.
Did I miss this gem in the domestic media?
He's run the numbers through Quicken three times - they're solid!
Geithner to Davos, "we've got our foot to the floor until the engine blows."
I'm with you, From. It's really, really, scary to have a government actively seeking to destroy what most people know as America.
But it's not surprising. I went to a large college, and these SAME PEOPLE wanted to do the same thing back then. I even went to their teach-ins, where they were plotting "the revolution" that didn't happen then...but now is underway.
Gee, I wish I could run my personal budget that way. Spent too much on credit cards? No worries, just order up a second helping of credit - raise your credit limits. Do they really let mental degenerates like this graduate from kindergarten, let alone run a major government agency?
There's a theory that a government SHOULD run a deficit during an economic slowdown and a surplus during good times. Since a politician gains power and job security by spending more money(ie buying votes and favors), he will grab on to any excuse available to spend more money. We are in the biggest economic slowdown since the great depression therefore every power hungry money grubbing politico with a pulse will try use that as an excuse to spend more than ever before. They will justify it in their own minds that it is the next politician's job who presides during good times to run a surplus big enough to pay for it. Besides, bush and republicans got to use iraq/afghanistan as an excuse to spend more than he had. Now it's the democrats' turn.
This is how they think. It's like watching a very stupid childish married couple fight over who gets to use the credit card next when they are already overdrawn in the checking account.
Thanks for your feedback, helps me understand what is going on just a little bit better.
If the GOP gets a backbone and refuses to go along with raising the debt ceiling you will see some major slashing going on so that Timmy does not default on the TBills.
He is not a czar yet.. or is he?
***** a theory that a government SHOULD run a deficit during an economic slowdown and a surplus during good times. Since a politician gains power and job security...****
"The Group" here, raise their salaries and guarantee their "jobs" at insulated levels.
"I followed the connections between Peter Geithner (long time head of the Ford Foundations Asia Division) and Ann Soetero. The Ford Foundation in Asia is widely held to be connected to the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency. Ann Dunham Soetoro worked extensively with the Ford Foundation as well as the U.S.A.I.D. and the World Bank, both considered sometime partners in covert operations. Barack Obamas step-father, Lolo Soetoro was a high ranking military officer in Suhartos Army and a government liaison between the Indonesian military government and the international oil industry.
Peter Geithners son Tim, Obamas Treasury Secretary, was raised primarily in China and Southeast Asia. As Clinton undersecretary for Asian Affairs and high ranking officer in the International Monetary Fund, it was Geithners monetary medicine that led to a worsening of the Asian financial catastrophe which wrecked the economies primarily of Thailand, Indonesia and South Korea. Many experts believe Geithners monetary policy led to the crash of the Southeast Asian economies. Other factors in the collapse were overvalued real-estate assets and outside currency manipulations. Foreign capital had been pouring into the Southeast Asian economies, due to high interest rates relative to the dollar. When American interest rates began to rise, capital flowed toward American investments, out of Asia. Thailand was forced to float its currency against the dollar. This resulted in the crash of the value of the Asian currencies and a deep retrenchment of real estate values. The financial collapse called for a massive infusion of IMF funds.
Does this scenario sound familiar to you?"
It does sound familiar back around the time of the crash we had a thread going that said the same thing and it had ties to Kissinger/Soros as well. Thanks for the reminder.
>> Geithner is a womyns studies major who stumbled into a quantum physics class.
Surely you're not suggesting that women are an easier study than quantum physics?
So Geithner will steal from our enemies, until our government is forced to repudiate the debt. Sounds like a plan.
He's a real genius isn't he. He sent a letter saying how we have to raise the debt ceiling to congress but never bothers to mention the important parts like our dollar is being devalued.
...another way to look at it, IMO. They buy time and keep their jobs a little longer by continued monetization and lose the business end of globalism. Or they stop the debt nonsense now, give up their jobs, and hope that some vestige of "we are the world" will survive the nationalistic tendencies in front of us (downward currency race, resurgence of western participation in protectionism, etc.).

Man Stabs 22 Children in China
A man wielding a knife wounded 22 children and one adult outside a primary school in central China as students were arriving for classes on Friday, the police said.
The attack, in the village of Chengping in Henan Province, happened shortly before 8 a.m., said a police officer from Guangshan County, where the village is located.
The attacker, Min Yingjun, 36, was subdued by security guards and taken into custody by the police, said the officer, who declined to give her name, which is customary among Chinese civil servants. Guards have been posted at schools across China after a spate of attacks in recent years.
A Guangshan County hospital administrator said there were no deaths among the nine students admitted to the hospital, although two badly wounded children were transferred to better-equipped hospitals outside the county.
A doctor at Guangshans hospital of traditional Chinese medicine said that seven students had been admitted there, but that none were seriously injured.
It was not clear how old the wounded children were, but Chinese primary school students are generally 6 to 11.
A notice on the Guangshan County governments Web site confirmed the number of wounded and said an emergency response team had been set up to investigate the stabbings.
No motive was given for the attack, which resembled a string of similar assaults against Chinese schoolchildren in 2010 that killed nearly 20 and wounded more than 50. The most recent such attack took place in August, when a man broke into a middle school in the southern city of Nanchang and stabbed two students before fleeing.
Most of the attackers have been mentally disturbed men involved in personal disputes or unable to adjust to the rapid pace of social change in China, underscoring grave weaknesses in the antiquated Chinese medical systems ability to diagnose and treat psychiatric illness.
In one of the worst attacks, a man described as an unemployed, middle-aged doctor killed eight children with a knife in March 2010 to vent his anger over a thwarted romantic relationship.

And I thought Roger the Racist was an imbecile.
Take guns and people will use bricks - but there will be no mass murder, will there, dipshit?
And no scripture - nothing anywhere in God's word - says that anyone has the right to bear arms and to defend themselves.
God's word says that the highest good is sacrificing our own lives. God's word says not to resist an evil person and to love your enemy and not to return evil for evil. And God's son willingly gave up his life for those who were killing him and specifically REJECTED defending himself.
Do not use God to defend your evil selfishness, son. That's a dangerous place to go.

Midnight Assassin: A Murder in America's Heartland
A Murder in America's HeartlandIn 1900, Margaret Hossack, the wife of a prominent Iowa farmer, was arrested for bludgeoning her husband to death with an ax while their children slept upstairs. The community was outraged: How could a woman commit such an act of violence? Firsthand accounts describe the victim, John Hossack, as a cruel and unstable man. Perhaps Margaret Hossack was acting out of fear. Or perhaps the story she

I've tried this on a couple of different themes to no avail -- simply installing the plugin (with no other plugins installed) will throw the server into a palsy with: HTTP Error 500 (Internal Server Error): An unexpected condition was encountered while the server was attempting to fulfill the request.
I've tried this with two different themes, two different servers, no other active plugins.
What can I do to help fix this? I love the svbtle designs and I think a good plugin for kudos would be a real winner -- but it has to work.
Hi, I implemented the Kudos on my site, doidos.com.ar.
You should work on make it easier for non devs to use it in their site and provide documentation on the Shortcodes / Functions.
It was a puzzle to solve how to call the function to display the Kudos as wanted!

Matt M: A reminder from Last Prophet's words from August 2009, "Transgender agenda and Destruction: from Obamessiah to Semenya, from USA to athletics ". Introduced by later deelopments, from Obama's bathroom bomb from May 2016 to "Semenya'a wedding" and the" comeback of Bruce Jenner as Caitlyn". May 2016 - Introduction 2016 May - Obama detonates the bathrooms bomb. Obamessiah's miracle turns men into women by simply having them walk into the ladies rooms. Obamessiah of the Obamanation of Desolation: the gender bombs The script included an official bomb to legally open the door of women's bathrooms to men in general and sexual assaulters in particular. It was served as "Obama to Public Schools: Allow Transgender Students Access to Bathrooms". Contrast it in the timeline with two other transgender suicide bombs, exposed by Last Prophet: 1. attached in plain sight to Obama's chest ever since he stepped on stage together with the future "first lady Michelle", a former football player in college. 2. to be detonated only after the launch of the BIG BANG (resurrection of Osama crucified to the missing Boeing 777, at Jerusalem, Obama Bi-nla- den's staged arrest), Transgender agenda and Destruction of Athletics It started 2009, years before the related "reality show" chapter "Bruce Jenner changes sex, becomes Caitlyn". A chapter that uses an actor to impersonate one of the great US athletics champions, literally executed by the illuminati not long ater Ben Johnson became the first champion to be figuratively executed by doping. The Jenner chapter was released after Semenya's torture of 4 years finally resulted in her accepting to participate in yet another reality show: "Semenya's wedding, after both families were happy to negotiate the bride, lobola, .another south african athlete with Semenya's family paying R25?000". A torture that lasted almost as long as what Lance Armstrong endured before he finally "confessed to Oprah Winfery on TV". The same Guantanamo type of torture that Trump now officially promises to multiply "more, more and more" for everyone ("we will kill their (ISIS) families"). Reminder of Last Prophet's words from Aug 2009 Transgender agenda and Destruction: from Obamessiah to Semenya. from USA to athletics 1. Obama transgender lines in the Destruction of the USA 2. Casten Semenya transgender chapter in the estruction of Athletics Obama in the transgender agenda, part of the Destruction of the USA Script lines range from: - day one: a transvestite first lady, what will never be served officially. [Side note added Sep 2014, after the fake death of the fake Joan Rivers: Obama will indeed confess this "murder", but the official story will be because "Rivers dared to attack Obama" not "exposed Michelle Obama as a man"]. - to just before the crucifiction, alias "Obama sentenced to death, executed by hanging": stripped Obama confesses the murder of several gay lovers,. It's part of: the countless list of fake assassinations that Obama will confess to have ordered or personally carried out (includes strangling with his own hands his granny at her bed in Hawaii, Nov 2008). Casten Semenya transgender chapter in the "Destruction of Athletics" agenda. The difference between Bolt and Semenya Bolt will remain not only the fastest man FOREVER but also at the top of the list of athletes executed by the illuminati with false accusations. Same as almost everyone else in the list: Illuminati sentenced Bolt to be executed by "on drugs". Contrast it with one of the few exceptions on that list: South Africa's Casten Semenya: executed on gender rather than on drugs TV "commentators" around the globe are ordered to use the same defamatory expressions about Semenya as to all other athletics and cycling champions still competing, while replacing drugs with gender. Reminder: Defamation paves the way for the official execution, other than directly advancing the same agendas as banned athletes, which include the destruction of athletics. The Casten Semenya paradox Casten Semenya is the only 800 m athlete who would have had a chance to break the 1982 world record had she not been non-stop psychologically tortured ever since she went under the two minutes barrier. Paradoxically at a time where the iiluminati are so desperate for new world records that 2014 they manufactured the first one, at the men's pole vault (albeit a new wolrd record was not the only agenda in that particular case) Casten Semenya - the "woman is man" trangsender agenda combined with "destruction of athletics" Illuminati mockery in literal "black is white" went as far as to have "black Michael Jackson becomes white, has biological white children". But Michael Jackson was also a star in another "black is white" agenda, this time figuratively: the "man is woman" or illuminati transgender agenda. Semenya is the name that stands for the same illuminati combining this type of mockery with the torture of another great athletics champion, this time exceptionally not with false accusations of doping but rather of gender.

Skill Level Beginner
The paragraph attribute that most directly affects the way long blocks of text in your document look is Hyphenation and Justification. Now, these are two completely separate concepts, but they work together to determine how your text flows from line to line. On this Magazine spreads layout in the Petstumes Project, if you scroll on down to page 3, you'll see a big chunk of text here. To me, it doesn't look quite optimal, because first of all, there are these big gaps in it. So, let's see how we can control that.
I'm going to click into this text box and just drag across to highlight portions of all of the paragraphs. That way we can format all those paragraphs at the same time. Now, while it would be really convenient to be able to control the Hyphenation & Justification Settings from somewhere in the Measurements palette, it's currently not there. But instead, we need to go to the Style menu and choose Formats. That will format the paragraphs. In the Paragraph Attributes box, down here under H&J, we'll see that we have some choices.
Right now, the H&J setting is set for Standard, but there are other options here. Look what we've got, Narrow Measure, No Hyphenation, Titles, Very Narrow Measure and Wide Measure. Now, those are all included by default in QuarkXPress when you install it and you can create your own that will be added to this list. But for now, let's just look at the presets. Narrow Measure means, I've got a narrow column of text. So, please do what you can to make the text look the best in a narrow column. Even further end, we've got Very Narrow.
We also have No Hyphenation as an option, which means don't hyphenate these lines at all. Titles works well on big text in titles and Wide Measure is for very wide columns of text. I'm going to select Very Narrow measure and get it out of the way. Click the Apply button and watch how these paragraphs change. That's a whole lot better than it was before. What it's doing is it's suggesting the spaces between the letters and between the words and it's hyphenating as intelligently as it can to create lines of text that have the minimum number of really big gaps in them.
Now, in this case, we've given in a very difficult task because these columns are very narrow and the text is really rather large. So, if you find that you're commonly running into this kind of problem yourself, you can create your own H&Js. I'm going to click on OK to accept these changes with these paragraphs. If you want to make your own Hyphenation & Justification Settings, you can go to the Edit menu to H&Js and in there you'll see the list of existing H&J settings, which you can then duplicate or create new ones on your own or even append them from existing documents where you've created your own H&J settings.
Let's have a look at one just for a second, so you can see what the options are. We chose Very Narrow Measure, so I'll click Edit and these are the settings you can adjust. How you want it to hyphenate, how you want it to break words, how many hyphens in a row, how far to look for those hyphens and how to space out your characters and the spaces between the words. By adjusting all of these items, you should be able to create a setting that will work the best for your particular column width and your choice of fonts and sizes. But I'm going to cancel out of here, because I don't want to create a new one.
Now, H&Js can be as complex or as simple as you'd like them to be, depending on how much control you want to have over the way your text flows. The included presets in QuarkXPress are going to be useful for just about every situation, but under special circumstances, it's good to know exactly how to change them under H&Js.

- About as close to the University of Washington as you can get
- Fun boutique decor
- Great views of downtown Seattle, Lake Washington, and the mountains
- Stylish lobby for socializing
- Flat-screen TVs and iPod docks
- Art Deco history
- No room service
- 12-minute freeway drive to downtown Seattle
- No valet parking
Bottom Line
If you need to stay near the University of Washington -- and want to avoid chain hotels -- Hotel Deca is a solid option. While it certainly lives up to its name as a fun boutique hotel with swanky, bold decor, it lacks the polish and sightseeing perks of many of Seattle's downtown properties.

Oyster Hotel Review
This updated boutique hotel is convenient, but not luxurious
Most visitors to Seattle head straight for downtown, with its access to the waterfront, Space Needle, and Pike Place Market. But if your trip calls for time spent at or near the University of Washington, Hotel Deca is for you. One: because it's one of the few non-chain hotels (i.e. Silver Cloud, Hampton Inn) in the area. And two: because the ambience and view beats those chain hotels hands-down. Built in 1931, the property capitalizes on its Art Deco roots, with an exterior shape that's not unlike the lower half of the Empire State Building. Though a bit tired and worn on the outside, the inside has been completely renovated, with a welcoming lobby that offers plenty of stylish, sit-and-mingle seating (think: high-backed, upholstered chairs in bold colors), plus iron railings, and oversized period art pieces. And once you're upstairs, you'll find that the 12-room-per-floor set-up preserves Hotel Deca's boutique status.
Minutes from the University of Washington, but not much else
Whether you're attending a college graduation or sporting event, conducting business, or just feel like steering clear of downtown Seattle, the "U District" -- where Hotel Deca is situated -- is a reasonable option. Just a few blocks off of Interstate-5 and minutes away from the sprawling University of Washington campus, the property is smack-dab in the heart of student country; you can walk to dozens of mid-range restaurants (sushi, subs, and more), in addition to the multiplex Metro Cinema just a couple of blocks away. By the same token, expect to see knapsacks everywhere you go, and a somewhat seedy night scene on and around University Avenue (known simply as "The Ave."); the area doesn't lend itself to comfortable evening strolls. If you've got a car, the entrance to Highway 520 -- the floating bridge that takes you to Microsoft and the east side -- is a five-minute drive from the hotel.
- 5-minute walk to University of Washington
- 10-minute walk to Henry Art Gallery
- 5-minute drive to University of Washington Hospital & Medical Center
- 5-minute drive to University Village Shopping Center
- 5-minute drive to Husky Stadium
- 5-minute drive to Museum of History & Industry
- 12-minute drive to downtown Seattle
- 30-minute taxi drive to Sea-Tac Airport (about $50)

Nearby Hotels
158 boldly decorated rooms and suites; some with balconies and views
Anyone who has stayed in the hotel before its 2005 purchase by Noble House Hotel & Resorts will be happy with the design overhaul. Rooms, which include a downright swanky Presidential Suite, channel the hotel's original Art Deco roots. Decor includes gutsy pops of color (like royal blue headboards and orange mosaic bath tiles in the suites), sleek black furniture, and sweeping drapes that pull back to showcase the views of mountains and water on the Sky Level. Those looking for large digs will be happy to know that the Presidential Suite (already 1,000 square feet) has connecting doors to the Isabelle Suite, which together, turn the space into a sprawling 2,500-square-foot apartment. Despite the stylish renovation, however, it's important to remember that this hotel is 80-plus years old; not surprisingly, some of the rooms -- which range from about 250-400 square feet -- have begun to show their age.
All Rooms Include:
- Down-filled bedding
- 32-inch flat-panel LCD TV with premium cable channels and pay-per-view movies
- Clock radio with iPod docking station
- In-room safe

location for a duct cleaning and maintenance. We went to provide an estimate for the location in Miami, store #557. Ultimately
Ferrandino and Son accepted this proposal.
The proposal consisted of doing an intensive duct cleaning of the interior and exterior of the duct work. We did multiple coil cleanings on location. We cleaned off 30 commercial sized grills. We sanitized the whole system after the cleaning aspect was completed. This job required dedicated teams to stay on site for nearly a week. There was the rental of lifts that were needed to make this service possible.
This company makes you get the signature and the stamp of the store manager to prove payment necessary for a
job done. We got and submitted the invoice we had signed for the work we provided to Ferrandino and Son at the Best Buy
location #557. We worked with them on payment schedule of 30-60 days. 3 months later we get a check for less
than half of the amount listed on our invoice.
We have made multiple Efforts to contact Best Buy and Farrandino and Son to try and rectify the short in the payment that was given to us. Best Buy corporate is not being responsive in the matter and Ferrandino and Son is getting away with murder. October 22, 2012 Ferrandino and Son sent an e-mail saying they have no proof of the balance being on the account. We send them the copy of the signed and stamped invoice and they debate its validity.

STOCKTON -- The Google Barge has been spotted about 1 mile west of Buckley Cove as it glides into the Port of Stockton from its Treasure Island mooring.
The barge, long shrouded in mystery, is supposed to be a showcase for Google products, once it's completed.
Google did not have the permits needed to finish the construction on Treasure Island, and for weeks it has been rumored to be coming to Stockton.
The Port confirmed just this morning that the barge was on its way, and it is expected to arrive at its final destination on Rough and Ready Island by 10 a.m.

Reynolds Stratus Pro Road Wheelset - Tubeless
Retail Price: $900.00buy now
Our Price: $449.95
Our Price: $449.95
Way-too-serious cyclists will tell you that tubular is the only way to go, but you can come right back and tell them that the tubless Reynolds Stratus Pro Wheelset you're running is more durable, more practical, less expensive, and generally more sane. While Reynolds made the Stratus Pro from aluminum, not carbon, it's still stiff enough to race on, with a 28mm rim depth that minimizes weight and zips through the air like it's not even there. It's 21mm wide, too, which provides a sturdy platform for cornering and increased surface area for less rolling resistance. Not only is aluminum more durable than carbon, but it's infinitely more comfortable to ride. It won't transmit unbearable vibrations into your body, and won't make you cringe every time you roll over a pebble or crack in the pavement. Reynolds hooked both wheels up with its in-house hubs, which are available in Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo versions, and placed the spoke nipples on the exterior of the rims for easy maintenance. Finally, and maybe best of all, the Stratus Pro is tubeless compatible. While tubeless tires have taken over the mountain-bike world, they're still unusual on road wheels, but Reynolds made the Stratus Pro with a rim that will seal tightly with tubeless road tires, so you can have the smooth ride, increased durability, and decreased weight that trail riders enjoy.

The Difference A Donkey Makes...
The Difference A Donkey Makes...
By Gerald A. Honigman - ekurd.net
After describing the
agony caused to one donkey by an owner overloading
him, using painful harnesses, and driving him to
exhaustion, and contrasting this to a luckier animal
rescued by a local veternarian supported by WSPA,
the excerpts from the mailing continued...
Unfortunately, the first story depicts the daily
lives of tens of thousands of donkeys living in
Bethlehem right now. Toiling without rest under the
hot sun; exhausted, injured, and hungry; neglected
and abused, these poor animals know only pain and
suffering...many live with agonizing wounds...yet
most will never be brought to a veternarian because
their owners see them as little more than
machines...they will literally be worked to
death...then thrown away when their worn out bodies
can no longer go on.
Oh yes...there is another fate for donkeys in the
"Arab" world as well, not mentioned in the mailer.
As hinted above, they have been used to carry
explosives to blow themselves and human targets up.
Another famous organization, PETA, was very vocal on
this matter. On February 3, 2003, Ingrid Newkirk,
PETA's president, wrote a letter to Yasser Arafat
urging that the Arabs not use donkeys when murdering
Jews (no mention of concern about blown up Jews,
however...just that animals be left out of the
While no people nor culture has a monopoly on saints
or sinners, one would be hard-pressed to find Jews
doing these sort of things to animals, let alone
people...especially on the massive scale we're
referring to here.
Not only are Jews not permitted to do such things as
overwork their animals (the latter must also rest on
the Sabbath), they are expected to take care of
their animals' own basic needs--such as food and
water--before those of themselves. And, unlike what
we see too often in the "Arab"/Muslim world, these
principals are largely put into practice.
While there are some folks who don't mind abusing or
murdering people but supposedly still like animals
(Hitler, for example), the mistreatment of the one
too often seems to make the slaughter of the other
The same common disregard for animal life described
above in now predominantly Muslim Arab Bethlehem
happens to also be taking place in a culture which
glorifies and makes heros of those who visit
families in the night, beheading infants and
murdering the others as well; creates museums with
fake Jewish body parts hanging from the ceiling in
commemoration of the real acts of barbarism; stops
pregnant mothers in their cars and murders the
children at point blank range in their seats along
with the women; kidnaps young children and smashes
their heads against walls on the inside of caves;
deliberately targets schools and school buses; etc.
and so forth.
No problem with the Jews' donkeys...and no Jews
beheading Arab infants either.
Get it ?
Unlike Arab civilians who die because their brothers
use them as human shields in the process of
attacking Jewish non-combatants (a double war crime
according to the Geneva Conventions, by the way),
those victims above were as innocent (and
deliberately selected...the more innocent, the
better) as those donkeys cited by WSPA being worked
to death.
While I'm not trying to downplay such problems
associated with things like veal calf or mass
chicken production (which many Jews are also guilty
by association with), what I'm focusing upon here
represents something far different.
Not that the Arabs are the only folks with a bad
record on the these matters, it's still no accident
that WSPA had to do a mailing about the donkeys of
Bethlehem rather than the fate of any animal in the
land of the Jews.

Summer 2015
Nominations for the icoya grant are now closed. Thank you for all who participated and nominated!
Nominations for the icoya grant are now closed. Thank you for all who participated and nominated!
Colin is the web development arm of icoya. He's a fan of open source technologies, and 9 times out of ten will build your site using PHP and MySQL, with sprinklings of JavaScript frameworks, SASS, and HTML5. Colin has worked in development since 2004, but also has some experience with design and writing, and his varied background helps icoya in many ways. He currently lives in San Francisco.
Ikuko (Iko) is the award-winning design genius at icoya. A graphic designer/art director by trade, Iko also does printmaking. She was born and raised in Japan, and originally came to the US as a student. Her plan to stay just for 1-2 years to study English evolved into studying art at Columbia College in Chicago. Her specialties are web & interface design, print, advertising, logo and identity design. Iko likes running, spicy food, dogs, those creepy Blythe dolls, and traveling. Iko lives with her family in Chicago.
As a small business owner, I always feel like the cobbler's kids with no shoes... a beautiful website always seemed like a luxury! But icoya proved that it's an attainable necessity. I'm so grateful for their creativity, talent and diligence. They kept me on task and built me a website that never fails to impress my customers and peers alike!
~ Janessa Knodt, Forget Me Knodt
I saw Forget Me Knodt's website and thought it was really charming and easy to navigate, and discovered icoya from there. I did a lot of shopping around for my website developer/designer and felt comfortable with icoya from the beginning. The fact that they are in different states from me made no difference, it was an enjoyable and stress-free process. Iko is a great designer and she understood my vision. Colin did a great job explaining the technical side of the process, and was very quick to respond when I had questions. They went above and beyond. It's been a great experience and I recommend them to anyone looking for a website designer.
~ Mai Hoang Ito, Bunch Studio
Icoya is the web team you dream about. Their work is exceptional and they not only develop and design a website that meets your expectations but is even better than you could have imagined! With great attention to detail, communication and insight, icoya is thorough and strategic in every step of the process.
Because of icoya, I now have a website I am excited about and I know it will enhance my business' brand and impact sales. They brought my ideas to life with their incredible design talent and efficient web development skills. I highly recommend hiring icoya because it will be one of the best decisions you've ever made!
~ Olivia Wu, Zoie Events
Deciding to work with icoya was one of the smartest decisions we made when starting our consulting firm. From conceptualization to execution, icoya provides an outstanding mix of creative energy, technical expertise, and dedicated service. They've earned our highest recommendation.
~ Matt Bowers, Hook & Ladder
I met Iko & Colin of icoya through a neighbor whose floral design website I really liked. The streamlined, elegant, yet modern aesthetic created by icoya appealed to me and was exactly what I wanted for my brand. From proposal through creative development and production, the icoya team was a joy to work with…resulting in a brand ID and logo that will allow my new business to stand out from the competition. Iko & Colin are approachable and smart, and truly vested in making your business a success. They are partners in every sense of the word and I highly recommend them.
~ Jenn Bussell, Savor The District
Questions? Comments? Love letters? Project inquiries? Let us know!
Drop us an email at email@example.com or use the form below.
icoya will donate their services for one project, with the scope of the project determinant upon needs of the chosen applicant. The value of the project is not to exceed $5,000, with costs to be determined based upon our hourly rate of $75 / hour. The work for the grant will be approached the same as a paying project, where there will be a letter of agreement, schedule, rounds of revision, etc. Typical project scopes within this budget include a logo design, website layout, and fully-functional website that is connected to a content management system. Scope and level of effort to be determined on an individual applicant basis. The terms of this grant require that icoya is given creative freedom and control, with guidelines and approval given by the grant winner.

Dear troll, you can do better. Now give us a real nasty bash. I want to buy BBT at $25 or less. Thank you.
Looks to me that many investors are simply hedging their huge gains they have already made on August calls. Open interest calls are decidingly bullish.

Back in 1996, when Rocket Jockey was released, it was quite 'teh awesome', as they say. At least, I thought so. Nowadays, she's not much to look at, but there's plenty of life in her yet. To get to said life however, one must jump through a couple of hoops. Attempting to install the game straight up may result in a formal objection from Windows XP, stating "severely" that Windows 95 is required. If by some fortune you avoid this danger, the installer will then confront you with a requirement that DirectX 3 be installed, and thanks to some confused logic on the part of the programmer, the script decides that 9 is not 3. So sorry.
Hope springs eternal though, and thanks to a few plucky forumgoers over at The Underdogs, a patch is available allowing this magnificent bit of Retronautian minutiae to grace our computers once again in all it's low poly-count, pixelicious glory. And what glory it is. Rocket Jockey is neatly divided into three events: racing, rocket ball and deathmatch. After picking a rider (differences seem to be decorative) and a rocket (again, decorative), just pick one of the three arenas and get... um, rocketing! The overall feel is that of a crazy-ass rodeo of a retro, 1950s-esque sci-fi future, complete with dirt-floor arena.
Rocket racing is about as straight forward as it sounds. You ride your rocket as fast as you can, either flying through gates or hooking on to specific poles and swinging off them in a sort of high-octane horizontal trapeze act. Naturally, other riders are trying to do the same. Deathmatch is also to be taken at face value, with two or more rockets squaring off in an arena in an attempt to grapple opposing riders and string them up like tetherballs. Finally, rocket ball is a quirky sort of soccer played on (you guessed it!) rockets. Grapple the ball and fling it across the map like a hammer throw!
Each mode controls pretty much the same. Your rocket, although steerable, turns like a semi, so getting used to the grappling is very much recommended. All of the same tricks tend to apply in each of the modes as well, so all of the nasty "snare the other dude and drag him behind you" maneuvers you pick up in deathmatch will come in handy while playing rocket ball. If you have a game pad with shoulder buttons, everything becomes much more intuitive, but things work out on the keyboard surprisingly effectively as well. As you crash into walls, things start to break down and the already-tricky-to-handle rocket gets worse, but the cure for that is simply to play more of the game and to get better.
Special mention should be made of the game's music. What is already a pretty kickin' game gets exponentially better with a soundtrack of surf rock done by none other than Dick Dale himself. The man invented that sort of sound (for the uncultured, think the theme from Pulp Fiction) and it suits the retro-future, high-octane, EXTREME rodeo feel of the game perfectly. In fact, I even ripped the CD (it's a data-audio mix) to iTunes just to listen to the songs themselves. The music alone makes the game worth tracking down on CD, and it's a shame that there aren't more games like this. Aside from Lumines, Katamari and the odd Square RPG, I can't think of too many other games in which the music is worth listening to on it's own, divest from its context.
Rocket Jockey is one of those games that made nary a ripple in the gaming scene. Ask any gamer about the year 1996, and I'll wager many a donut that any of the following will trigger more nostalgia:
- Super Mario 64
- Resident Evil
- Master of Orion 2
- Quake
- Diablo
Nope, Rocket Jockey is a diamond in the rough. Few have played it, fewer still remember it, but not only was it awesome then, it's pretty darn fun now. You never know, maybe some day you'll wind up rooting through the bargain bin at a local electronics store that's offloading their back room full of old games that never sold and you might be able to pick this one up for a buck or two. I did, and I do not regret it.

Program Notes
Program Notes: Another Thin Man (1939)
June 30, 2014
One of the first things you realize watching 1939's Another Thin Man is that the mystery hardly matters. Watch it for the sophisticated humor and the superb banter between stars William Powell and Myrna Loy.
Program Notes: Andy Hardy Gets Spring Fever (1939)
June 23, 2014
It's difficult for modern viewers to appreciate the immense popularity of MGM's Andy Hardy films of the late 1930s and early '40s. Andy Hardy Gets Spring Fever is the seventh release in the 18-film series that began in 1937 and didn't wrap up until 1958.
Program Notes: In Name Only (1939)
June 16, 2014
1939's In Name Only was made under the Hollywood Production Code. It managed to bend the usual rules out of shape and should have been on the code's naughty list. How did they get away with it?
Program Notes: The Cat and the Canary (1939)
June 9, 2014
Baby boomers who grew up watching Bob Hope on television may not realize that he was a major movie star as well. In 1939's "old dark house" film, The Cat and the Canary, Hope is clearly the most interesting thing on the screen.
Program Notes: You Can't Cheat an Honest Man (1939)
June 2, 2014
You Can't Cheat an Honest Man brought W.C. Fields, Edgar Bergen & Charlie McCarthy together on the big screen in 1939. The film isn't much for plot, but it's rich in comic inventiveness.
