After the Giants and Justin Tuck got to "eat fresh" at the expense of RG3 with 4 sacks from Justin, the 9-7 train rolls into San Diego!
4 chances to finish strong. No matter what happens I hope you stand with the Giants.
Thanks for watching and hope it helps get you ready for the Chargers.

Date Climbed: Aug 28, 2005
|8/28/05 - Traversed ridge from Apache. Navajo's West Chimney rocks! Such a fun, classic chimney with wild exposure below. Descended Airplane Gully - loose talus isn't so great but the airplane wreckage is definately worth seeing.
8/2/08 - 2nd trip, this time via Navajo Snowfield (which was still in good snow climbing shape, not icy) and the North Face. Also climbed Dickers Peck and Niwot Ridge before heading down Airplane Gully.
6/21/10 - Traversed from Apache and climbed up the delightful West Chimney (with a bit of snow and ice). Above the namesake 4th class chimney we climbed a fun low 5th class chimney system that I'd explored on the previous trip. Great scramble, always is, always will be.

|Route Climbed: North Ridge Date Climbed: July '03
|Pretty simple climb. 4th class. Need to cross an easy snow field. I didn't take crampons and just chopped steps. The actual summit is only 4th class. Fun solo climb. Descent route sucks.

|Route Climbed: Airplane Gully Date Climbed: 2 October 2005
|Sunny and warm on the trail, but cold up high, with conditions exacerbated by very high winds. Can you say the phrase "biting spindrift" as your cheeks get wrapped around your ear lobes? Ascended the frozen couloir on thin, slippery snow. We were glad that most of the otherwise loose rocks were glued in place. Topped out via SE chimney on snow and a little ice. 5:00 up. Rapped the chimney with 30m to avoid slippery downclimb.

|Route Climbed: Airplane Gully Date Climbed: September 17, 2005
|Sunny all day, with some high gusty winds while going up the gully; which made going by the airplane wreck eery as is sounded like it was trying to take off once again. There must have been some snow fall up there in the past couple days as the gully and summit was sprinkled with snow, most of which was melting quite fast by that afternoon. Glad to have gone up and down with gully without anyone ahead or below me.

|A beautiful day in the IPW - that is once all the clouds were cleared out by the high winds!! We waited for the clouds to clear out and it was worth the wait. We had a spectacular fall day. Great visibility from the summit and a fun climb up the chimney.

Volume II
Miami-Dade Public School Choice Program
What's New
OII releases Innovations in Education: Creating Strong Supplemental Educational Services Programs; OII is looking for partners to distribute the Innovations in Education publication series; UScharterschools.org will host a web-based dialogue on issues related to the charter schools conference; New York City's Chancellor Joel Klein said charter schools have what any successful school needs: leadership, autonomy, and accountability.
Innovations in the News
According to the National Center for Alternative Certification, Houston's alternative teacher certification program is one of the best in the country, plus information on school choice, single-sex schools, supplemental educational services, and technology in schools.
Miami-Dade Focuses on Customer Demand for a Vast Array of School Choices
"What is public school choice? How can it best engage parents to make smarter choices for their children? Will it help or hurt my school district in the long run?" These are questions that some administrators ask as they look at new opportunities and options for their districts.
Put simply, public school choice is designed to offer parents the option to enroll their children in a public school of their choice. While most states already have different forms of public school choice (ranging from open enrollment to charter schools and magnet schools), the No Child Left Behind Act also demands that all districts offer students who attend schools in need of improvement the option of enrolling in a better performing public school of their parents' choice. This added requirement has caused districts to question how to offer public school choice or juxtapose this new requirement against their existing school choice options. To this end, a trip to Miami-Dade County offers some insightful lessons.
Since 1971, Miami-Dade County Public Schools has offered a mélange of school choices. Currently, the district has 71 magnet programs, 31 charter schools, 16 controlled choice schools, two satellite schools hosted by large employers on site, and a "commuter school" for the convenience of parents who work in downtown Miami and drop their children off nearby. In addition, Florida's "Opportunity Scholarships Program," offers $4,000 scholarships for children to transfer from low-performing schools to other public or private schools, and the state offers the McKay scholarship program for students with disabilities to attend a private school of choice.
The district's School Choice and Parental Options office leads the oversight and implementation of the school choice programs, while the cross-district Schools of Choice Advisory Committee promotes greater understanding of the district's goals for magnet schools, analyzes special program needs, makes recommendations for program expansion, and encourages community engagement with the district's choice program. The committee members are as diverse as the school choices themselves and include representatives of the school board, members of the PTA, choice school principals, satellite learning center representatives, exceptional student education representatives, members of the teachers union, education experts from colleges and universities, and a group that addresses biracial and tri-ethnic issues.
Thanks to these two entities, Miami-Dade has successfully created innovative educational options coupled with increased access to better information for parents. The school district is also a recipient of several federal grants including one from the Department's Voluntary Public School Choice program. Through this program, the district is sponsoring the "I Choose!" initiative, which has divided the district into "choice zones." Schools in these zones are being modeled after successful magnet and charter schools in order to attract students and reverse declining enrollment in designated areas of the district. Right now, nine "I Choose!" schools are designing new school programs with aligned professional development. To meet training needs, district curriculum supervisors will be assigned to the schools, referred to as "professional development laboratories," to provide targeted, on-site expertise for teachers and students. The "I Choose!" schools are also sprucing up their school buildings to be more inviting to prospective students and their parents.
To manage transportation, the district has six transportation zones and recently created a new set of three larger zones in order to facilitate the choices required by No Child Left Behind. Transfers are managed through an integrated system, so when a student is registered at a charter school, for example, the student's name is taken off the roll of the traditional school immediately.
Dr. Helen Blanch, District Director of School Choice and Parental Options, emphasizes that choice is about "increased parental awareness of what is available, and the district's meeting parents' demands." As a result of customer demand, the school district has become consumer oriented and has adopted a business model with competition for quality products at its core.
OII has provided funding for Miami-Dade's choice initiatives through the Magnet Schools Assistance Program and the Charter Schools Program, in addition to the Voluntary Public School Choice Program. The school district has provided choice to its education customers for over 30 years and continues to do so under the provisions of No Child Left Behind.
Note: The Miami Dade School District choice program is one of the case studies in OII's new publication, Innovations in Education: Creating Strong District School Choice Programs. The featured school district is innovative, but does not necessarily have evidence of general effectiveness from a rigorous evaluation. The success of the program described may not be replicable, depending on unique conditions in differing locations.

Innovations in the News
Alternative Teacher Certification
The Houston Independent School District Alternative Certification Program, one of the oldest in the country, has turned college-educated professionals into classroom teachers. According to the National Center for Alternative Certification, an OII grantee, Houston's program is also one of the best in the country. [More-Houston Chronicle] (May 22)
The "interns" who go through the Houston alternative certification program must pass a state competency exam to receive the federal "highly qualified teacher" label that is important under No Child Left Behind. Each intern has a different story to tell. [More-Houston Chronicle] (May 23)
School Choice
Saying that many minority students in New Jersey go to substandard schools, a coalition of black and Hispanic clergy called on lawmakers to implement school choice statewide. Their plan centers on allowing public dollars to follow a student to the school of his or her choice. [More-News Day] (May 24)
The Talladega County School System (AL) is cited in a report from the Citizens Commission on Civil Rights for aiding integration by complying with the choice provision of No Child Left Behind. [More-Daily Home] (May 23)
Olga and Michael Block created the BASIS school in a well-worn commercial area of Tucson, AZ. The school requires students to take at least seven Advanced Placement courses to graduate. [More-Washington Post] (May 25)
Single-Sex Schools
Today there are 25 single-sex public schools in the nation. Another 72 schools offer single-sex classes. Some experts predict 2005 will be a banner year for single-sex education. [More-Christian Science Monitor] (May 25)
Schools exclusively for boys, such as Roxbury Latin and Belmont Hill School in Massachusetts, are being looked at as viable educational alternatives. A recent Australian study showed that boys make academic gains when educated with other boys. [More-Christian Science Monitor] (May 25)
Supplemental Educational Services
Secretary of Education Rod Paige visited Toledo Public Schools to highlight what is going right in the district with supplemental educational services. The district is one of the case studies upon which the OII book, Creating Strong Supplemental Educational Services, is based. [More-Toledo Blade] (May 26)
Technology in Schools
Connections Academy, a virtual school based in Baltimore, provides home-schooling families with what they need to conduct class, including a support network for parents. [More-Durango Herald] (May 24)
Deb Karle holds the title of "integration specialist" at Gates Elementary in Grand Island, NE. In this position she works in the media center, helping students use computers and technology, and creates activities for the HAL program to expand the regular classroom curriculum for high ability learners.

Wheels and the art of reinvention
ksandstr said earlier:
Sigh. Will we ever learn?
Doesn't look like it does it? :) Not only are we bloating stuff up with XML where it doesn't need to be (and for some things XML is good, I just feel it's overused), but thanks to work on PDAs and even the GBA, the period between invention and reinvention is getting smaller :)
Found that of the two bugs I had fixed in VTWM, only one was a bug and the other was a user naivity error, as I'd failed to read the man page properly. Problem is that the fix (either my code fix or the configuration fix that I got from reading the man page) breaks my mail tool and fixes tgif. Bah. I'll need to try that one again.

This is a cozy room with all the comfort of a (luxury) hotel. After an extensive renovation which the old heart of the building was nurtured here is the modern comforts added.

Maastricht is an old city with new accents.
The town is one of the oldest cities in the Netherlands – a city that has ripened well with age, like good wine, with complex and lively cultural overtones added over centuries by the Romans, Germans and French. This rich cultural palette is the secret behind the city's attractiveness, drawing visitors to the historic city center and a wealth of museums and festivals – making each visit a fascinating new experience. The mentality of the city's residents is characterized by charm, lightheartedness, the ability to laugh at themselves when necessary, and what the French call joie de vivre.
The center of Maastricht is compact and easy to explore on foot. Large areas are pedestrians- only and most sites are within walking distance. The old St. Servaas bridge links the old centre with the trendy Wyck district, and from the adjacent Céramique district you can cross back over the river via the designer suspension bridge, the 'Hoeg Brögk', and cut through the park back to the centre. With an amazing variety of sights, sounds and flavours spread along a compact network of attractive streets on both sides of the river, you'll never feel lost but very much at home.

Reviews of this property
From the time that we walked into the charming house on Jekerstraat St., we were smitten. The foyer is reminiscent of Medieval times with a winding staircase and Victorian furniture. Alie's daughter greeted us and continually provided us with information about the city and it's surroundings.
The accommodations were comfortable and clean. We stayed in the room on the top floor with a cathedral ceiling, the equivalent of a queen bed and an additional bed that worked well for our son who is studying at Maastricht University. The bathroom was updated. The best part was the library, complete with a sliding ladder, that offered refuge from the bedroom and had an on-going fire in the stone fireplace. The breakfast was very traditional and served in the spacious kitchen. Alie and her daughter were the perfect hostesses and convinced us that Bed and Breakfast settings are the best way to experience Europe.
The B&B is really beautiful! You can get to the city center just walking few minutes and it's situated in a REALLY NICE AREA! The room was very confortable, super clean and designed with a really good taste!! Ali, the owner, is a sweet woman, helpful and available!! My family and I, we will definitely come back to that beautiful and fascinating B&B!!!
Zeer vriendelijk verzorgd verblijf in heel authentiek pand. De communicatie verliep makkelijk. Behulpzame en hartelijke ontvangst en heerlijke bedden en ontbijt! De locatie ligt aan rand van het centrum, paar minuten lopen vanaf Vrijthof. Zeker aan te bevelen, dus.
Heel mooi en de ligging is prima. Je kan parkeren voor 10 euros
Alie, de eigenaar, is heel lief en helpt jou als het nodig is.
Alie, wij Coby en Geerit hebben een heerlijk tijd gehad. Het was maar een paar dagen maar zeker een tijd om aan terug te denken. De ontvangst was hartelijk, de kamers en douche/badkamer waren schoon . Zeer goede bedden. Een aanrader om nog eens terug te gaan.
Sfeervolle B&B, goede bedden en een schone badkamer. Het ontbijt was ruim voldoende.
Suggestie; vers geperst sinaasappelsap serveren.
Ideaal adres om te logeren in Maastricht met een vriendelijke gastheer.
Alles Super! Sogar Glutenfreies Frühstück. Super Lage, schönes Zimmer. Das ist nicht das letzte Mal, dass wir bei Alie übernachten.

text: I was thinking about this.. What if Wesley Johnson, DeMarcus Cousins or Al-Farouq Aminu slips to the 7th pick? Would you pick them? I mean, I know that probably all of you would pick Cousins without a doubt. But what if Wesley Johnson or Aminu are available.. they both are very athletic Small Forwards, but we have a lot of SF.. What I'm trying to say is that, Wesley and Aminu are not "needs" for our current roster. So, would you pick them?? or you rather pick something that we need (a Big man like Monroe or Udoh or Davis or Whiteside)? Is the risk worthy of pick an SF like Wes Johnson or Aminu above a Big man (a true need)??? Some people say that you have to draft for talent, no matter what your needs are. Some others say that it's all about your needs..

[quote user="JPizzack"][quote user="Kase-1"][quote user="bigblue4417"]

Giants DC Perry Fewell is no longer worried about limiting Jason Pierre-Paul's snaps after the pass rusher played more than 100 against the Jets in Week 16.

JPP will get a breather with Osi Umenyiora due back this week, but he's not giving up the starting job. "He deserves to be the starter, there's no question about it," Umenyiora readily acknowledges. "The guy's playing at as high a level at defensive end as I've seen in a long time and I've been here a long time."

Who is this new Osi, was he lying about his ankle, was it really a head injury!?!?!
i feel like Osi was just waiting for someone to ask him to play...which is ridiculous lol.
[/quote]Maybe he had a 'Moment Of Clarity' when he was on the sidelines and realized that his name doesnt have the same power and intensity that it once did. Maybe he realized that he's on a class act organization with a bunch of talent around him, and in one of the better situations in the NFL. Maybe he realized that people have realized he isnt the biggest pass rush threat on the NYG's and that he's virtually a 1 trick pony
...Maybe he's drunk and starting the New Years Celebration early, LOL

Reviews for this host's other properties
The flat was really nice. We appreciated the good beds and the air conditioning. There were 41 steps to the secend floor but it was OK for us. It would be nice if you can do a manual to the washing machine. It´s much easyer to use then.
Basically everything was fine and according to the description with the booked accomodation:
The apartment was clean and all necessary equipment available (TV, free WLAN, Nespresso coffee machine, A/C in all rooms except one sleeping room (only vent), washing machine).
At arrival we were expected in front of apartment at agreed time (2PM).
Departure was at 11AM and we could deposit our luggage in the rental company's office until our final departure to airport.
Only problem (cause only 4 points instead of 5 points): the apartment is in 3rd floor and the stairways are VERY small to bring up the luggage. It seems this is standard in city houses in Palma, but it should be mentioned in the description.
Great host. Quick to reply by mail and text. Supplied baby cot and chair without hassle. Just easy!
Amazing location in old town, Palma.
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
We had a great stay in the apartment. Location is really great. In reality exactly like the pictures. Pay attention: the stairs are rather steep!
Everything was more than ok, except for the noise the wooden floor makes.....
We liked:
-Excellent location, easy to walk within minutes to restaurants, bars, shops, cafes. Perfect with little baby.
-Spacious lounge & dining area (we were 3 adults and a 5 month old baby).
-2 good size double bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
-Elevator (but 3 steps to get up to it made it a little tricky with pushchair).
-Quiet - good for sleeping!
-Lucky it was available at short notice.
We didn't like:
-No electric kettle - just one for the hob - far too time consuming for tea & making baby bottles!
-No AC in the bedrooms, only in lounge. We had to have the lounge at lowest temperature for a few hours to help cools the bedrooms.
-Tiny microwave (our standard MAM baby bottles wouldn't fit).
-En suite bathroom did not have a shower curtain.
-Poor water pressure in showers.
Top flat, super service!

I have heard alot about winter kill, whether by mites, cold, or other. One problem or cause is what I have concluded killed some of my hives.
In central PA, a drought followed by almost no fall honey due to an early frost, caused the queens to shut down for an extended period of time. I did not fall feed my hives to stimulate brood production which was very critical to ensure YOUNG bees headed into to this very long cold winter.
Hives were packed full of honey, no desease or major mites present, but alot of hives dead. This scenerio sounds alot like what I'm hearing from others.
I overlooked the importance of fall brood, stimulated by a late flow, (which occurred naturally in the past several years) and paid the price. Old bees going into a long cold winter kills. Anyone else?

At age 13, Nolan Gould is a high school graduate and a star of an Emmy Award-winning TV show. So he's spent a ton of time doing schoolwork and acting on the set of Modern Family. But when he gets a chance, he goes outdoors. "I take every opportunity when I am not working to go camping or hiking, or just get outside," Nolan told TFK.
This summer, Nolan got involved with the Sierra Club, an environmental group. Its Mission Outdoors program follows the same principle as the Sierra Club itself: People who spend time outdoors will want to protect our planet. It worked with Nolan. He spent a week on vacation with his family at Grand Canyon National Park, in Arizona. Between mountain biking, kayaking and riding mules, he fell in love with the spot.
A Call to Action
Nolan was surprised to learn that the region is at risk. "The Grand Canyon and the surrounding lands are in danger from threats like uranium mining, coal pollution and logging," Nolan says. "We can't let them be destroyed."
So what is this modern man's plan of action? "We are asking the President to permanently protect this natural area," says Nolan. If the President names the area a national monument, it will be safe from many of these environmental threats. "You can write the President a letter, or you can go to sierraclub.org/grand-canyon-watershed to send him a message online," Nolan says.

Santa Barbara Film Festival gives boost to area businesses
SANTA BARBARA, Calif. - It's a wrap. The red carpets are gone but local businesses are enjoying the "green" the Santa Barbara International Film Festival left behind.
Over the past 11 days, area businesses saw a much needed economic boost during what is typically a slow time of year. The festival drew in big crowds from all around the world, and some downtown businesses were grateful for the extra foot traffic.
The festival still has some life left. There will be encore showings of some of the best films all weekend at the Riviera Theatre, one more chance for area businesses to cash in. For more info, visit: sbiff.org

My only complain is the freaking level 52 items drop on Inferno. That's all.
Well, that's a build I'm using when playing solo or when I'm tanking. If there is another one does the tanking, then I could switch to my sweet burning build to wreck havoc.

In Diablo 3, you're basically just grinding for the sake of grinding items to go into areas... to get better items. It's certainly a wonderful thing, and I'm not objecting to the grind. The problem is that the time spent to reward/ ratio and risk to reward ratio is out of whack. That's the main problem atm.
And I'm not the only one that thinks this, given the drop buffs and difficulty being lowered. However, when the game is balanced with the subtlety of fanservice in ecchi anime, I'd say there is a problem.

There is no middle ground. I either have top end gear to survive against Inferno elites so I can farm them, or I can't so I go to Hell and Nightmare for gold farming. The fact that I lose 3000 gold when killed means this is the only way to go.

That doesn't mean Diablo 3 in anyway the best game ever, but people keep making the big deal out of something that shouldn't happen. Do you love to ram your head to the wall and complain that the wall shouldn't exist in the first place?

Outside of dying a dozen times every time you meet an Elite Pack (at which point you should probably re-evaluate your gear/skill setup), or refusing to pick up every gold pile you see, or ignoring all the Magical loot, I am having trouble understanding how one can lose money even on Inferno.
The game definitely gives you more gold than you need, so any gold loss will be due to the player's actions or mis-actions.
A Reign of the Black King run will garner about 30-40k gold, and is generally one of the easiest Inferno runs. If you can clear Hell Act-4 comfortably, you should be able to clear this run competently. To negate that 30-40k gold, you will need to die about 10-12 times which is extremely excessive.
A Warden & Butcher run will garner about 50-75k gold, depending on Elite pack spawns. That's about 20-35 deaths.
Additionally, this is assuming that you have royally bad luck and find absolutely NOTHING of worth to sell on the Auction House, not even for chump change. Furthermore, you can salvage iLvl 61-63 junk Magic/Rare items for their Inferno crafting materials, and sell the dust for about a 1000g each.
I have some issues with Inferno, in particular the damage level of the afterburn of Constructs' fireballs and from the Molten affix, but gaining gold is not one of them.

If you want, you can add me on and I will run with you on a Warden & Butcher run and see what tips I can give you.

Any kind of kiting build is vastly harder to manage then a tank build. Trying to avoid being 1 or two-shot by elites who have ridiculous affixes like vortex/molten, or teleport/firechains...Or the infamous invulnerably minions..Is nigh impossible at some point. Wizards probably have it hardest unless they opt for a critical mass build, since they have few escapes. Some defensive buffs and spells, yeah, but they do little unless you're seriously stacked with resistances. Once you hit Inferno act III+ anyways. And you're basically pigeonholed into going teleport with illusionist passive, because it's truly the only way to escape a large number of elite affixes.
Pre-nerf it was the melee who had a hard time, but the nerf completely reversed that. Now elites only do like half damage, which make them far less of a threat to melee, but still plenty of a threat to dps builds since they can still only take a few hits at best. And they're most likely to die because of this, hence the high repair costs.

Definition of top end is relative, but I'm sure Vallen means Inferno-viable gear.
Anyhow, I think I've explained enough in the previous pages that he is part of the group that actually got knocked back, and for those of us that weren't it's just hard to comprehend. When you are able to crush Act 1 Inferno pre-patch, it feels like nothing. But imagine having half the dps and damage reduction.
And grinding in D2 is nothing like grinding in D3. Maybe because stuff actually drops in d2!
And screwing up your character was lame, but hey, if I want to build a character with retarded shit, let me!

1) No.
2) Frost only.
I've been considering frost as "selfish mage" and fire as "generous mage" for their passive . Unless I'm in a party of 4 wizards who are playing Frost, there is no way I'm going to use Cold Blood.
Note: that wand is the one I bought before, and I'm selling them at loss (same price as when I bought, and then apply the 15% tax).
That feel when you see your shop deserted .

I can't tell from the screenshot, but making a profit (not killing, just simple profit) from the Auction House also requires the right pricing. If you can sell an item for more than its vendor/salvage value, then you have made a profit.
I regularly sell items in the 5-10k range (desirable stats, but low range, hence good as "starter" Inferno gear), but generally speaking, due to the 10-item limit of the Auction House, I try to only list items that I feel are worth at least 25k.
Although... sometimes it feels like nobody plays Witch Doctors, because I can never seem to sell the totems for anything. Compared to what Demon Hunters will pay for a good Rare Quiver or Monk melee weapons.

Well, D2 had more gold and green to offset the boringness, even if a lot of them sucked. But many low level green/gold items were really good for their levels, and I actually took some level 10-15 uniques to hell because they were pretty good til I could replace them.
Also, crafted items were a different color. Why didn't they even bother with this in d3? It makes it stand out. Or did the game designers think players were too stupid to differentiate between more than 3 colors?

Anyone experience this? When I tried to login into my D3 account it told me that my name/pw was wrong and I had to reset it over the battle.net site. After finally getting into the account again my difficulty had been set back to normal for some reason. I'm not exactly sure if this is caused by overwriting progress up to my current quest but the gold was set back to 0 as well.
Equipment and chest contents are all still there so it was probably something within the game itself but it's still quite confusing.

There has been a discussion on another thread about beekeeping without smoke and the benefits and detriments thereof.
It has developed a tangent re smoke and BBQ . . . which you can lay on my head. Mea Culpa.
So, since it's summer, what are YOUR favorite BBQ recipes using SMOKE AND HONEY?
I'll have to grab my 'receipt book' and check my notes. But I promise to report back.
What kind of meat? What kind of wood? Mop sauce? Rub? Only dipping sauce? Time and temps? What's your preference? Any awards?
(And since BBQ discussions get testier than politics AND religion combined, let's agree to be nice.)
By my definition, smoking and BBQ means cooking 'low and slow' at 300 degrees or less. Above that, and you're 'grilling'.
Hambone, please limit the number of your recipes to 10!

You can't control Mother Nature, but you can take preventative actions to minimize the impact of snow and ice. Proper planning saves a lot of time and heartache, says Randy Strait, owner of Arctic Snow & Ice Control Inc. in Bradley, Ill.
Your first criterion should be that the company's 100% committed to snow removal — rather than being, say, a landscape or construction company that's just trying to keep busy over the winter — to ensure immediate response during an event. Make sure the company owns enough of the right type of equipment and has access to enough operators to meet your community's needs in a worst possible scenario:
Contractors come in the following three types, ranging from most to least expensive:
Snow removal company. Full-time snow and ice management including plowing and removal.
Snowplow company. Plowing only. If your community has storage space, this option saves the expense of paying someone else to remove piles of snow.
Snow management company. Very low rates because all work is subcontracted to third-party providers, virtually eliminating overhead costs. But you won't have any say in which subcontractor is hired to clear your roads.
Secure insurance, long-term contracts
A contractor that maintains electronic job tickets with GPS tracking provides some liability protection if your operation should become the target of a lawsuit. Of course, a contractor with adequate insurance from a reputable agency is the best protection.
It's also a good idea to secure contracts ranging from three to five years. The company will become familiar with your roads and be more likely to buy specialty equipment when there's a long-term investment.
On the flip side, you can get yourself into trouble by signing a long-term contract only to find out the relationship isn't a good fit. To avoid this, write a 30-day cancellation notice due to poor service into the contract.
By spending the time to research and check qualifications, you'll keep snow and ice from cutting into your operation's effectiveness.

st: sampling weight
"Lynn Lee" <email@example.com>
st: sampling weight
Thu, 27 Sep 2012 10:58:07 +0800
Dear Stas,
I just want to do simple sampling.
Take "webuse total" for example. I am wondering how was "swgt" generated? I
guess: obs 1 has her corresponding sampling weight, swgt=25964, which is the
total population in her group; obs 4 has his corresponding sampling weight,
swgt=4312, which is the total population in his group;etc. Is that right?
So, if I use this logic in my downloaded survey data sets, I can group all
the obs into different sampling weight over residence place and gender.
Like: I calculate total number of individuals who were in the dataset
according to their resident city , say, total number of individuals in city
1 is 1000 in dataset, total number of individuals in city n is 400 in the
data set, then, I generate this city-total-individuals as a new variable
(weight). (Or I can even be more detailed, total number of people in the
data set over city, gender, age.) In regression, I simply use command "reg y
x1 x2 x3 [pweight=total]". Can this way correct in part for unweighted data
Suppose the mean of total(weights) is 500, min is 100 and max is 800.Then,
weighted analysis will give at most 800/100 times the weights to potentially
under-sampled observations. Do I understand correctly?
I appreciate for your suggestion in advance.
Best Regards,
Lynn Lee

Subject: Re: st: sampling weight
If Lynn obtained her sample in a rigorous way by enumerating the dwellings,
she should have all the inputs into the probability of selection, and the
baseline sampling weight is the inverse of that.
Then she would want to correct for non-response, which would be the fraction
of those responding to the survey among those sampled.
If Lynn is interested in a specific population (females of reproductive age,
say), and that's who the survey collected the data on, then she would need
to get the total population counts for that specific population (which may
prove even more difficult).
If she does not have these figures, then I don't really know what to do. As
they say, when you approach a statistician with collected data in hand, they
can only tell you what killed your study.

Modern Corvettes are among the automotive world's most accomplished dual-purpose performers. They may go about their everyday tasks just like any other car, but underneath that beautiful fiberglass skin lie the taut muscles and lightning-fast reflexes of a top athlete.
One of the best ways to exploit the Corvette's more dynamic side is to attend a high-performance driving school. Many such schools are offered in the U.S., and several even use Corvettes as training cars. Unfortunately, most of these classes take place on small, remote racing circuits, and speeds are strictly controlled for safety reasons.
In Europe, speed rules. As we have found, it is not uncommon to be passed by faster-moving traffic while cruising at 130 mph on the Autobahn-even in poor weather. The overall skill of European drivers is very high, and many of these drivers are keen to hone these skills further.
In response, Kroymans Import Europe, one of the continent's most prominent Corvette dealers, organized the Corvette Performance Academy. The Academy is run by Managing Director Emmanuel Claes and offers three levels of training. Classes are held on huge, permanent race courses as well as on safety and training tracks throughout Europe. (The 2007 season includes race courses located in Germany, Luxembourg, France, Belgium, and Sweden.)
The Corvettes are really put through their paces, reaching speeds as high as 300 kph (approximately 186 mph) on the high-banked tracks. The training is demanding and not for the faint of heart, but for Vette enthusiasts who want to learn how to get the most from their cars, the Corvette Performance Academy offers a safe, properly supervised place to do so.
The Academy offers classes designed to suit everyone from a prospective Corvette owner to an experienced performance driver. If you're planning a trip to Europe next year, you might want to consider signing up for one of these programs. It will be a Corvette experience you'll never forget.
Level 1: Corvette Safety Training
This program teaches the basics of car control. It includes skidpad runs, which teach class members how to control understeer and oversteer. Participants are also taught how to avoid obstacles and put through their paces on a slalom.
The course lasts one day and uses nine C6s and three Z06s. The capacity is 48 participants, and the price is 500 euros (approximately $682) per person.
Level 2: Corvette Performance Training
This program also incorporates understeer and oversteer training on the skidpad. Additional areas of focus include car dynamics, acceleration, braking, the proper way to negotiate a corner, and using the throttle and steering to maintain correct balance. The culmination is a 90-minute session on a full race track.
This course also lasts one day and uses nine C6s and three Z06s. The capacity is 36 participants, and the price is 750 euros per person (approx. $1,023). One spectator is allowed for 150 euros (approximately $205).
Level 3: Corvette Z06 Advanced Training
This program's objective is to produce very skilled Corvette drivers. It includes training in all of the basic racing techniques including handling, dynamics, throttle, steering, braking, cornering, and building up speed in the Z06. It offers plenty of track time in a C6 on Day One, and in a Z06 on Day Two. One instructor is assigned to two students throughout the course.
This two-day program uses four C6s and four Z06s and includes a Saturday-night stay in a hotel. The capacity is 12 participants, and the price is 2,500 euros (approximately $3,412) per person.
* Participants must successfully complete a Corvette Performance Training program prior to entering Z06 Advanced Training.

Economic measures such as employment, number of establishments and number of firms can be analyzed for a single year or multiple years from 1977 to 2011.
The tool has three major components: an interactive thematic map for the 50 states, interactive bar charts that give side-by-side comparisons of states and business sectors as well as time series data comparisons over a range of time. It also is providing a new and easy way for users to look at key economic trends about America's economy by visualizing statistics over time.

Town Square
May Day, May Day, time to celebrate!
Original post made by Ralph N. Shirlet, another community, on May 1, 2010
"Polling established that 94.7% of Tea Party participants do not drink Tea!"
Please let it by my turn to excite the fringe pseudonyms that populate exchanges on the Express Forum. Ofter too fuzzy to be threads, each exchange gathers the fringe beyond right-leaning politics, economics and culture. But there has to be someone who is the catalyst who will comment on subject in someway that the fringe can drift off into their own thoughts and prejudices.
So on this May Day, when around the poll(s) we weave our rainbow of ribbons of multi-colored thoughts and thoughtlessness, let's invite these entertaining pseudonyms to bring their fuzzy threads and dance for a moment in global reality.
Ribbons anyone? There does not seem to be any reason to serve TEA!

I guess you must be speaking about the moron tea baggers.

The Tea Party is gaining momentum, as more and more people realize that Obama's socialist and redistribution of wealth from those who have earned it to those who have not, is not what our great country was founded on. May day is actually a socialist holiday, celebrating Marxism principles of communist countries. I am confident that real Americans realize what a threat his ideology is to our country, and he will not be a two term President.

What, pray tell, is a "real American?" If my views differ from yours, if I voted for Obama and agree with many of his views (which I don't consider socialist...just ask a true Socialist about that), am I not a real American? I believe my first ancestor came to this country sometime around 1580. But then again, I consider Obama, and even recently naturalized immigrants to be every bit as American as I am. Whatever their political views. Why do Tea Partiers think they are MORE American? Seems like pretty un-American attitude to me.

Curious: What is a "true socialist"? Is is someone whose primary economic principles favor a redistribution of wealth, from those who have earned it, to those who have not? Is is someone who on the record has stated that rather than a free market approach, he favors the government telling businesses how much profit they can make? Is is someone who mandates free healthcare be socialized by those already paying for their own healthcare? Is is someone who steals a well known socialistic mantra, "Yes We Can" as his political slogan? If the sickle fits, wear it!

A note to Curious...just ignore "American"...his sanctimonious babble is kind of amusing but not really worth responding to. I'm glad there is a political party for folks like him so they can all congregate and practice their intolerance amongst themselves and leave the rest of us alone.

Tensions Flare After Bus Beating
Seven Richmond, Virginia middle school students have been suspended after a brutal attack on a bus driver, according to Richmond Public Schools.
Six of those students were arrested by the Richmond Police Department Wednesday.
The six Albert Hill Middle School students were charged with aggravated assault and assault by mob.
Both are felonies.
Richmond City school leaders say they are taking action as this investigation continues, but some employees say not enough was done to prevent this and one employee is speaking out.
One employee, who did not want to be identified, says there were other incidents like throwing objects at the driver.
"He kept calling it in over the radio, calling in, writing up, calling in, writing up and the same students continually kept riding the bus until the worst happened," he said.
He says there is a lack of support by some school principals when it comes to disciplining students.
"They put them right back on the bus the same day," says the employee.

he got it as returner and 2nd team all pro only got 3 votes doesnt mean anything to me yet...
he got some pretty nice returns for us but i dont think we spent a 1st round pick for a returner did we boys let get this guy some action in the backfield
he will be great
I would like to see the front office place a premium on the OL. I'm sick of seeing the Giants drafting linemen in the 4,5, and 6 rounds. They have the skill position players on offense already. Build the line and get a better run attack which will lead to better play action.

I'm done with this league

I can't believe what I am reading on the movie board. I don't know if I can participate in a league where the commish hates Breaking Bad.

st: extracting rownames of a matrix into a variable (preparatory work for MICE)
"Gresch,Cornelia" <firstname.lastname@example.com>
st: extracting rownames of a matrix into a variable (preparatory work for MICE)
Thu, 18 Sep 2008 20:52:58 +0200
Dear members,
I want to extract a matrix into data-format in a way that the row-names are not lost but appear in a new variable as "observations" (contents of the first variable in string format). Does anybody of you have an idea how to get this running?
Background of the question: I work on an imputation model with MICE (command ice). Since the dataset is very large I need to decide which variables to use as independent variables. Therefore I want to create a matrix including the R˛ (or LL) of bivariate regression models for all possible combination of the variables. The col-names of this matrix correspond to the dependent variables, the row-names of the matrix to the independent variables of the bivariate regression model.
Because the final matrix will be very large I would like to convert it into variables (which can be easily used to define about 15-25 independent variables which again I want to use as predictors in the final imputation model). Using the command "svmat" results in the expected dataset but the row-names (which are necessary to identify the appropriate predictors) get lost.
Below you can see the code and the resulting problem in more detail:
(N.B.: variables are "e3his" "e220ex" "t_kfts" (which are metric); "tr10emp" "e121a" (which are categorial with corresponding dummies (tr10emp_1, tr10emp_2,...)); and "slspaet" "tr06sex" (which are binary))
matrix drop _all
foreach av of var e3his e220ex t_kfts {
foreach katuv of any tr10emp e121a {
local `katuv' = "`katuv'_*"
matrix `av' = (1)
foreach uv of any e3his e220ex t_kfts /* metrische UVs */ ///
"`tr10emp'" "`e121a'" /* polytome UVs */ ///
slspaet tr06sex /* Dummy-UVs */ {
quietly reg `av' `uv'
local r2 = "Fehler"
local r2 = e(r2)
matrix input R =(`r2')
matrix colnames `av' = `av'
matrix rownames R = `uv'
matrix `av' = (`av' \R)
if ("`av'" == "e3his") matrix ges_ols = (`av')
if ("`av'" ~= "e3his") matrix ges_ols = (ges_ols, `av')
matrix list ges_ols
e3his e220ex t_kfts
r1 1 1 1
e3his 1 .04320558 .05278807
e220ex .04320558 1 .01621444
t_kfts .05278807 .01621444 1
tr10emp_* .16007611 .02387149 .16865035
r1 0 0 0
slspaet .01107509 .00863178 4.931e-06
tr06sex 1.640e-06 .00104972 .00829559
If I convert this matrix to variables I get the following dataset:
svmat ges_ols, names(col)
| e3his e220ex t_kfts |
1. | 1 1 1 |
2. | 1 .0432056 .0527881 |
3. | .0432056 1 .0162144 |
4. | .0527881 .0162144 1 |
5. | .1600761 .0238715 .1686504 |
6. | 0 0 0 |
7. | .0110751 .0086318 4.93e-06 |
8. | 1.64e-06 .0010497 .0082956 |
But I also need a variable with the names of the variables in string format as I have it in the matrix (at least that's the only way I see to identify the 15-25 best fitting predictors). Does anybody of you have an idea how to get this running? Alternatively I tried to put the names as strings in the matrix, which also does not work and I also cannot transform the matrix (rows to columns and the other way around) and extract it that way since some of the independent variables are dummysets (e.g. tr10emp_*) and therefore cannot be identified as variable name.
Suggestions are more than welcome!
Thanks and best regards from Europe, Germany, Berlin

I am a fun loving, hard working mother of 2 kids. I own my own motorcycle and that's what I spend most of my free time doing in the warmer months. Ideally my next partner in crime is also a rider. I believe in working hard first then playing even harder. As far as communication, I'm not always the one to reach out first, but I am an open book when I do speak with others. I enjoy sports, camping, anything that has a motor and goes fast. I'll take the drag strip over a winery, a bonfire to a formal dinner party, a tailgate party to a ritzy party. I can do all of them, I'm adaptable like that, just prefer the ones listed. I tend to chose going out over staying home-but not always. Looking for someone who is outgoing, can make me laugh, and doesn't shy away from honest, open communication. So by now you have your mind made up about me, so I look forward to hearing from you!

Hallo Andres,hallo Aurora everything was great, breakfast, room and all your tourist informations. I hope you enjoyed the motorcycle racing at Ricardo Tormo, Cheste. Have a good time. Thanks for all. Manfred + Martina
We had a wonderful time in Valencia. We spent three weeks in Andres house and we loved it. A good neighbourhood, close to the old town,Ciudad de la Ciencia and the beach, Delicious breakfast, a clean room, every day it felt good to come home. Andres, thank you very much for your hospitality, help and friendship! Hasta el próximo año!
Andres was a great host. He gave us all the info we needed to arrive at his place, fast and easy. He then made us breakfast (great one, i might add) everyday of our staying. Andres was always polite, very helpfull (giving all the info we needed, places to visit and how to get there) and made us feel at home. Place is well located, close to the center and not far from the beach.
Andrés and Aurora are a very nice and careful couple and their apartment is lovely! And their breakfast is so delicious and also healthy. Everything is very clean! Two bathroom for three rooms so you don't have to wait or you wait only a short time. Well connected with the Old Town Center, you have to take only one bus or walking for half one hour (media hora). If you go you surely would like to go there again! You'll miss those people ;)
Our stay at Andres apartment was wonderful! The room and the bathroom were very clean and nice. The breakfast was good, too. Andres is a very helpful host and even with some language problems from both sides, he told us a lot about Valencia and showed us nice places to go and to experience the real spanish lifestyle :)
When we come back to Valencia, we definitely would stay with Andres again!
Andrès, staying with you in your nice apartment was a great pleasure! Your hospitality was beyond expactations!
We really would like to drink that good wine with you one day, back in Valencia:)...!!
Thank you very much!! Ger and Ineke
The room in Valencia was great, we had a large room with a wardrobe and a large bed. The time we spent there was nice, although we visited the city most of the time. But when we were in the appartment, we talked to our incredibly nice hosts, they always made breakfast(which tasted awesome) and talked to us. Andres knew how to get to every point in the city and was caring throughout the time. In general oe could say that the quite modern appartment was really nice and easy to find. Therefore I want to say thank you.
We spent in Valencia one week. First surprise for us was the equipment of the whole apartment. Our room was splendid and comfortable. We had separated bathroom and every day Andres prepared for us fresh fruit, tea, juice and delicious baguette with marmalade, butter or olive oil and tomatoes for breakfast. Andres was great attentive host, he was so kind and he helped us even with our sickness. He recommended us many beautiful places and gave us a map (including tips for public transport, which saved us lots of money). It was possible to prepare our own food in his kitchen and use his equipment. We can't imagine staying in Valencia without his help and precious tips! We definitely recommend this apartment!
Our stay in Valencia at the house of Andrés was good. We had good memories of the breakfast with fresh fruit and coffee with hot milk. He gave us a lot of information about the city. Also our bikes could stay at his home on the balcony.
From his house it was only 15 minutes to the Calatravabuildings.
Thanks Andrés for your hospitality.
Our hosts were very kind and available to us, with a permanent sense of quality, availability and well-advised tourist information during our journey (we stayed 6 nights).
Andres & Aurora set at a higher level the presentation and comfort of their home for guests, just alike in superior hôtels. Eventhough, as we hadn't any particular program for the sylvester eve., they spontaneously invited us to their friends' place, on counterparty of a low contribution (as we are also used to in France), and this is still a beautiful souvenir for my daughter and i !
If you expect a real quality for the lodging during your stay, appreciate conversation, good adresses during your trip in Valencia, proximity of bus stations ti the center, this adress is made for you. I recommand this lodging without doubt and the all offer deserves an "11" for sure, if it would have been possible.
