Can someone tell me a way to remove the timer on vex power on chi?
Hi, please could somebody help me find an addon that will put my buffs and debuffs under the standard blizzard ui Player Portrait? (just like he buffs and debuffs apear under the target portrait)
thank you very much in advance!

They're doing some wonky stuff (VeryShort actually returns a format string and a format argument instead of the formatted text).
This one's tested:
Code:local r,g,b = ClassColor(unit) return ("|cff%.02x%.02x%.02x%s|r"):format(r,g,b,string.format(VeryShort(HP(unit))))
---------- Post added 2012-11-18 at 12:21 PM ----------
Figured it out now. The second argument to VeryShort (and Short) indicates whether the returned string should be formatted.
These two work:
Code:local r,g,b = ClassColor(unit) return "|cff%.02x%.02x%.02x%s|r",r,g,b,VeryShort(HP(unit),true)Code:local t,r,g,b = select(2,UnitPowerType(unit)) if (not r) or (not g) or (not b) then local c = PowerBarColor[t] r,g,b = c.r, c.g, c.b end return "|cff%.02x%.02x%.02x%s|r", (r*255),(g*255),(b*255),Short(Power(unit),true)
Works great, ty Treeston!!!
Another question: I use Bartender, and hide all bars except one which displays my important cooldowns. Is there a way to disable the GCD on this bar?
I'm not sure if it's an option in the config GUI. If it's not, I'll take a look at the code when I get time.
I guess what I was also hinting at for an answer to this is... Are there "better" addons for healing in arena vs
Do a /framestack, hover over the buttons you want to hide it on, and adjust the underlined parts at the top (and add more as needed).Code:local hideOn = { [BT4Button1.cooldown] = true, [BT4Button2.cooldown] = true, } hooksecurefunc("CooldownFrame_SetTimer",function(self,_,duration) if hideOn[self] and (duration <= 1.5) then self:Hide() end end)
How to use. Untested.
Hey guys im looking for an addon that can show my trinket procs / under 20% procs do you guys know any addons like this?
You can follow this guide:
The one you want is:
Display an aura when there are x seconds left on it.
Code:local visible, texture, start, duration, enable, reversed = IconAura("HELPFUL|PLAYER", "player", "Judgements of the Pure") if duration and (start + duration - GetTime()) <= 10 then return visible, texture, start, duration, enable, reversed
I'm looking for presets for weakauras and/or powerauras for tier 14 boss encounters especially buff and debuff tracking on bosses (like amber strike on amber-shaper un'sok). I'm not looking for any class specific tracking, just boss encounters.
Hi all, I'm looking for some LUA code for KgPanels. I have 5 textures/bars that I want to color depending on what class I play, only show on certain classes and change opacity depending on how many combo points / holy power I have.
Let's say that I play on my Rogue / Druid or Paladin and I have 3 combo points / holy power. Then i want the bars to be classcolored, I want the first 3 bars to be at 100% opacity and the last 2 to be at (let's say 40% opacity). But when I log into my Priest I want the bars to hide.
My goal is to set up the resource bars for all the classes. I want them very simple but i have not found any addon that can do this witout heavy lua editing If you know any please let me know. I'de like to post a picture of what I have in mind but since I just registerd my account, I can't
Thanks for any help!
I found it very helpful.
Does anybody know a way to make shadowed unit frames and auras 'unclickable'? (so that i can click on stuff behind them)
preferably in a way that would still allow aura tooltips to work
If the frame is mouse enabled (tooltips) then it intercepts clicks.
HoF: http://pastebin.com/akcTWz32

A thing to note if you're planning on importing these...the HoF and MSV strings are very lengthy and it may lag/lock up your PC trying to decode them all. Be patient and it should load them.
I'd recommend ElvUI it's simple to set up, configurate and to use! Works pretty good all-around imo aswell!
Code:local cr,cg,cb = ClassColor(unit) local abbr = Name(unit) if not UnitIsPlayer(unit) then cr = 108 cg = 123 cb = 139 end if abbr:len() > 6 and abbr:find(" ") then abbr = abbr:gsub("([^ ]+) +", function(text) return text:sub(1,1) .. ". " end) end return "|cff%02x%02x%02x%s", cr,cg,cb,abbr;
Hello sorry if this as been asked a million times before but I am looking for a stat display addon like the one circled red in the pic below. I used to just stats and sldt but they both seem to no longer work.
It's ElvUI comp from tukui

Chris Waller-trained group one winners Albert The Fat and Danleigh could be joined by new stablemate Tougher Than Ever in Saturday's Expressway Stakes.
Last season's champion 2-year-old in New Zealand, where he raced as Warhorse in the care of Jason Bridgman, Tougher Than Ever pleased his new trainer with his third in a barrier trial a couple of weeks ago.
As is the case with many New Zealand horses, he had to undergo a name change to avoid confusion with an Australian horse of the same name.
The Australian War Horse, a maiden galloper who has been placed twice in three starts, is one of his new stablemates.
"Albert The Fat and Danleigh will run in the Expressway and I'll nominate Tougher Than Ever then look at the field," Waller said yesterday.
"Otherwise, we will wait until the following week."
Albert The Fat, the winner of the 2011 Emirates Stakes, hasn't raced since his fourth behind Atlantic Jewel in last year's All-Aged Stakes and has had three trials leading into his return.
Danleigh has trialled twice, the latest behind More Joyous on Friday, and Waller believes he can be effective in the Group Two weight-for-age Expressway at Warwick Farm, the race that kick starts Sydney's autumn carnival.
Waller would like to see a wet track for Danleigh but not to the extent of Saturday's heavy (10) at Rosehill.
"He needs it dead or slow but not heavy," he said.
"The race is a good stepping stone for him going forward."
Tougher Than Ever won the Diamond Stakes as a 2-year-old and was a close third in the 2000 Guineas won last November by Sacred Falls, who has also crossed the Tasman to join the Waller stable.
After an autumn campaign in Sydney, Tougher Than Ever is slated for another transfer, to Singapore where his owner Tang Weng Fei lives.
The plan is for the colt to join Mark Walker's stable to be prepared for the Singapore Triple Crown series.

Free Shipping & No Sales Tax.
User-friendly technology and fully programmable options for all coffee, frothing and hot water functions highlight the S9 One Touch. In just seconds, the S9 grinds, tamps and brews. Without ever having to move the cup, dispense hot water for teas and Americanos, and froth or steam milk for cappuccinos or lattes. Program temperature, coffee volume and coffee strength. Complete with graphics and electronic sensors, the LED dialog system will guide you to your coffee perfection.
The Impressa S9 One Touch comes equipped with a commercial-grade conical burr grinder, a hot water dispenser for making Café Americanos or tea, a separate coffee funnel for brewing ground coffee, automatic cleaning cycles, the Clearyl water filtration system to purify water (thus significantly reducing the need for decalcification), and a large cup-warming platform.
Keep the milk cold for frothing and steaming for up to 8 hours with the insulated milk container, unique only to the Jura-Capresso line of One Touch Automatic Coffee Centers. The S9 One Touch's two stainless steel-lined ThermoBlock heating systems and large 96 ounce water capacity make for easier coffee creations in less time.
Getting acquainted - The Jura Capresso S9 One Touch has 2 separate stainless steel-lined ThermoBlock heating systems with stainless steel grids, an 18-bar power group, thick ABS plastic, commercial conical steel burrs with 6 fineness settings, a 10 oz. bean hopper and stainless steel cup-warming platform. Measuring 14.75"x13.5"x15" (HxWxL), the machine weighs 21 lbs. The machine also comes with a 96 oz. removable water tank and a 20 oz. stainless steel thermal milk container. The spout is height adjustable, ranging from 2.6" to 6".
Get ready to brew - First, turn on your machine, and then fill the reservoir. Then add beans and select your coffee button. If you prefer preground coffee (specialty or decaf), the S9 is equipped with a funnel. Make sure you have a large cup under the spouts. Don't drink this first cup because it's going to be weak as it takes a cycle to get the beans into the chamber correctly.
Creating your drink - First set your selector dial-- Choose from brewing (quantity and size), hot water, steaming or frothing-- depending on what you want. You can also increase or decrease strength or volume of your coffee.(Choose from 5-15 grams of coffee per serving.) Put your cup (cups) under the spouts and go. Because you've pre-programmed everything, that's all you have to do each time you use your S9. It's that simple. Of course, you can always go back to the programming mode to change or readjust anything you like. But once you've set your programs all you have to do is hit your cup size and the S9 will automatically grind, tamp, pre-infuse and brew your coffee to your liking. Remember, the rotary dial allows you to temporarily override the the programming to prepare a special cup.
The finishing touches - With one touch of a button, you can create cappuccinos and lattes and all your favorite foamy drinks without having to move your cup. It's that easy! No mess. No fuss. Your coffee is ground, the chilled milk is siphoned, heated and frothed into your cup. The coffee is then brewed without ever moving your cup. With an 18-bar power pump, you are always assured of high pressure brewed coffee-- and always perfect crema for perfect drinks!
Care and maintenance - The display will indicate automatic cleaning and replenishing programs for: fill water, fill beans, empty used coffee, rinse coffee spout, cappuccino rinsing and cleaning, tablet cleaning, replace Clearyl filter (which significantly reduces the need for decalcification).

An open plea: Xi and Obama can accomplish one thing
Dear President Xi and President Obama,
You will both have received many public and private letters of advice prior to your meeting on Friday and Saturday in California. They will urge you to take up specific issues ranging from military and trade concerns to human rights. That diversity of concern is an indicator of how complex the relationships between your two countries are. They lend themselves to no easy solutions, and it is doubtful there will be immediate, radical change when you and your teams conclude the talks.

text: This is Sweet....... Chevrolet unveils its latest concept truck designed to take on just about anything By TTM Staff Chevrolet unveiled it's Silverado Black Ops concept truck, to showcease the 2014 Silverado's capable elements. The concept is based on the Silverado Crew Cab 4x4, that includes custom-fabricated lower body armor and a lockable, bed-mounted Truck Vault storage unit. The truck also features a solar power pack, gas masks, gloves, military First Aid Kit, folding shovel and rope. A generator, fuel can and water can are mounted atop the storage unit, as well as a crate stocked with food. The Silverado conecpt truck also showcwases the vehicle's CornerStep bumper and locking tailgate with EZ-Lift-and Lower feature. An internal torsion bar reduces the effort to raise and lower the tailgage, while a rotary damper allows for a controlled and more gradual lowering motion. The Silverado Black Ops also features a front mounted winch with a LED, spot light and integrated tow hooks. The truck also has a raised suspension that provides extra ground clearance. Additional exterior concept equipment includes custom bed rails and a light bridge – equipped with forward- and rearward-facing light bars, Chevrolet Accessories bolt-on fender flares and four-inch tubular assist steps, and off-road tires mounted on custom-painted versions of the production Z71 18-inch wheels. Inside, custom-trimmed black seats with yellow piping are complemented by additional yellow trim throughout the cabin, designed to be a comfortable and well-connected environment. It includes Silverado's MyLink system with available navigation – displayed on an eight-inch color touch screen. Standard USB and other accessory inputs make it easy to upload favorite songs from asmartphone or other media source. New, triple-sealed doors that are inlaid in the body sides and improved aerodynamics contribute to a quieter driving experience in the 2014 Silverado. As with all 2014 Silverado 1500 models, a fully boxed, hydroformed frame is the foundation for the Black Op concept's strength and capability, with the main rails and major cross members formed from high-strength steel, providing a rigid base for maximum hauling capability.

I would suggest that the OP search for a paper by May Berrenbaum(from teh U of Ill.) around 2007. She tested to see if CCD was of chemical origins, or pathogen origins. I forgot her methods, sorry. The conclusions where that it was a pathogen, which supported Hackenbergs conclusion.
A wise man above wrote:
I have the same problem as most people doing CCD research, finding the missing bees.
There is a report from a foreign country that analyzed those bee. The bees where placed in a "desert", 1/2 mile from a small cultivated nectar source. The author could not find any disease in the hives, but found plenty in the dead bees 1/2 mile away. Very simple, NOT very easy.
We saw CCD in 2005, 2006. Killed 90 percent for 2 years. Cleansed the hives and problems changed dramatically, and they made honey again. Don't forget the "don't make honey" CCD symptom. Do you have that?
So believe what you want.......

I would trust more Uncle Sam than "El Señor Doctor Russellio"
I would trust more Uncle Sam than "El Señor Doctor Russellio"
I just hope that if he is going to pay, he isn't "robbing Peter to pay Paul." If he can pay, it will far better than any court ordered settlement with attorneys taking their 40 percent off the top.
It may be just a ruse to get people he owe to not take legal action.
So I am truly sorry for all of you that have lost and hope you get some remuneration, but I also thank-you for talking about it and hopefully helping many others not to get in trouble.
Sonnypemberton, I did try to clear that up in this post.
thank you sir!
Quick question for you all. . . It was pointed out to me that in the thread in my post above that this is the same guy that we are all talking about. (rrussell6870) So my question is regarding his dad. Is he still alive and on Beesource? I have several other questions, but perhaps it's not my place to ask. Questions just out of curiosity.
Ask away if you wish or pm someone if you feel better about it. The fellow we are talking about is the son. Daddy developed Sunkist and I believe Moonbeam. He was very well respected and from all accounts treated his customers well. That is one of the reasons this mess got so out of hand, everyone thought nothing would change at Russel Apiaries.
Delber, all the posting on this forum was by Robert Russell, the person being described here. His Father passed away in the Fall of 2011 I think.
"Suppose you were an idiot and suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself." - Mark Twain
SippyBees said "... I think many of us here would like to know what convinced people... "
This is just my 2 cent's so take it for whats its worth.
>>Was it his father's reputation?
Yes and no, it was more the idea that he was trying to fullfill his fathers dream. Though not directly said I got that impression when reading through the website.
>>The fancy website?
No, to me it was a cookie cutter website. Are bee breeding websites suppose to be UNfancy? It is really cheap and easy to hire someone to design a nice looking website. Offer free pizza and a few bucks to the local computer wiz kid and in a weekend you got a decent looking site.
>>His knowledge on the forums?
Yes, but not so much the knowledge but the view he expressed towards other peoples ideas. He never seemed to put down anyone else's ideas or say his way was best. The advice given was not in the form of 'do this or else' but was more 'I do this because...' This openess with information and the friendly way it was given, not only by RA but many others on the RA forums, is the main factor that "convinced" me.
>>The 12 exotic races of bees?
I was only really interested in the SK line and pollinators. But it wasn't the traits or claims it was more of the precieved connection to pollination/migratory beek's that made me interested in those. The belief that people that make a living from beekeeping use those must mean they are good. The only trait that really caught my attention was the cordovian (sp?) color queen that gave normal looking workers. Being able to spot the queen easy sounded like a blessing. The rest was just icing so to say.
Kind ties into what I said above but, the idea that I now have access to something that only the deep pocket comercial guys could get before, made me feel a bit more on par with the commercial guys. Though this probly comes from the really bad experiance I had with commercial beeks locally.
Also, On a side note... before reading this thread I dropped a note to RA yesterday about a swarm I got from a 30 year old ferrel hive. Today I got a call from one of the sub's they want to come get the hive tomarrow. So some one is at the switch over there still. Before you ask, yes I'm giving them the hive. They have a real good reputation with the local clubs and was really helpful to me with advice and local contacts. Besides that I said I would therefor I will.
PS If anyone wants a refund on my 2 cents send me a self addressed stamped envelope I'll be happy to send it to you (Mexican peso may be substituted)
Just got a check in the mail from RA.
Cam Bishop
Cameo; I hope to have the same conclusion as you. Good for you.
We did business with JN. Good Man
I kicked this horse more than once,,,now what about a check?
I would sure write them and say this is my address and you owe me $_____ and send it to them. I ditched the envelope I got the check in. Maybe someone has it for you.
Is the web link still up about refunds on the RA site?
PM sent
Thank you guys for the information. In light of what is going on I sent an email cancelling my holdover and requesting a refund. I got a response saying they were investigating my claim and would get back with me. It irks me that he lied about who he was right to my face.

Oakland Council votes to hire ex-L.A. police chief in push to stop crime

Why hire a "consultant" when she wouldn't let the last police chief do his job? Quan is a true liberal - looking to promote crime, disarm the law-abiding citizen and waste taxpayor dollars every chance she gets.

on Jan 24, 2013 at 6:37 am
Yes, a true conservative libertarian Mayor would tell the police chief to crack a few heads. The criminals and would-be criminals need to have a healthy fear of the cops. Next, the Mayor should ideally relax gun carrying permits for the city's citizens, but this is Oakland and there aren't enough good citizens to have any real effect. Double the police force, do away with liberal citizen review boards, save the tax payers money by eliminating Internal Affairs over a five year period. Let the city's police force do its job and crack a few heads. Even the lowest of Oakland's scum will then get the message. FEAR THE POLICE!!!

Tea scum frank, you really are the ultimate contrarian to common sense. Even the most ignorant liberal must admit that Quans policies of pacifism would never work on the streets of Oakland or anywhere else for that matter. Cracking heads, as you put it, is exactly what these scumbags understand. Oakland has been a liberal policy failure for years...the experiment is over....you can't tame (Word removed by Pleasanton Weekly Online staff)

(This post has been edited to remove comments/words deemed inappropriate by Pleasanton Weekly Online staff) I hate the violence in Oakland and want the perpetrators stopped and put away, but there are good, hard-working people that live there that don't deserve the ugly things I see written here in a cavalier manner. It also degrades the person writing, to dehumanize an entire city based on race. I'll probably get blasted as a bleeding heart liberal, but I'm far from that. Please, can we just judge each person by the content of their character instead of painting with such a broad brush and in such repugnant terms?

Hey, Liz, (This post has been edited to remove comments/words deemed inappropriate by Pleasanton Weekly Online staff) Why are you resorting to racial stereotypes? Do you think that only ... thugs live in Oakland? What about the ongoing turf wars with Hispanic gangs in Oakland? Don't they count for something, too?
You're right, in that there are good hard working folks in Oakland, but they are the unfortunate minority in the city, not the 'black people', ..., etc. that you expressed sympathy for.

I expressed no sympathy for thugs - only an abhorrance of language that dehumanizes people, whatever their color. (This post has been edited to remove comments/words deemed inappropriate by Pleasanton Weekly Online staff)

I am a bit embarrassed that I was censored by the editor. I was only describing more succintly what the other poster was alluding to, in order to weigh in on how wrong I felt his comments were. I've noticed some contributors writing more and more intolerant and hateful "us vs. them"-type posts and felt compelled to comment. I apologize if I was too frank in my language and will be more careful in the future.
In any case, without the edited words/comments, this group of postings doesn't make as much sense. Based on the edits, it seems the editor agrees with me that people should not be referred to as "animals" or any variation thereof.
Don't miss out on the discussion!

Where I stayed
Interesting how the day evolves when the sun is beating down upon ones head slowly melting precious brain cells! Yesterday, I thought I was going to burn up from excessive heat stroke! Today, I looked down at my miles calculator to determine the distance from the beginning of my trip from Mimi's and saw "666". Yikes!!!! I decided to not pay attention because the Great Mystery will call me when HE is ready, not me or what I see. It was only about 100 miles down the road, when I pulled over to check my map. After deciding I was not lost, I slowly pulled on to I80 for Cheyenne, Wy. I'm still on my way to Ft. Collins to visit Millie and Chet. While I was gathering speed, I heard a WACK! Sounded like I ran over a bolt. Not more than three miles down the road, Goldie began to kick back, wabble, and mush! I pulled over just in time to experience my first flat on a motorcycle. It was so sweet. The back tire was really tired
Took about two hours to get a tow to a little place called Sidney, Nebraska. It's a cool little place with lots of stores and night life. (Right) :-) No kidding, it's nice.
The Tow cost was fare and the company just fine. AJ was along to keep his father company. We made it to Sidney in time to get the tires worked on. My bike is in between some huge unidentifiable machines used on farms here. HUGE TRACTORS!!! Glad I don't have to pay for those! Funny thing, while at Mimi's, I had a chance to change both tires. It will be much cheaper here. Interesting how The Mystery works.
You'll see some pictures of AJ, his Dad and truck. Then, some pictures of 21st Century ATV shop. They also work on big farm equipment. Nice people all the way around. Thanks Mystery, you worked it out just perfectly. (But, you knew you were going to, huh?) :-)

Is it possible to find a CLEAN and not beat to **** 02-04 wrx? (my budget is ~12k)
I've gone and looked at three and out of three one was from an auction with a swapped motor (guy claimed it was 100% stock, never modified. Bull****.) and the other two were poorly modded and abused (a/c didn't work in both, interior really worn, scratches/scrapes all over, plastic/rubber trim missing, BOV's, poorly installed boost gauges, exhaust leaks, etc).
Alright mini rant over, I'd prefer to hear from someone who went through this as well. I'm located near Chicago if that helps.
Here are wrx's I've looked at.

I just don't get dude's sometimes. You are one of a select who chosen by a NFL team to play for them and be a part of their future. And not just any team, you were chosen by the defending Super Bowl champs. A team with a great coach, a great QB with another 6-7 years of greatness left in him. And you're not motivated to play????? You know how many people who would give almost anything to be in your position?
If I'm Randle I would have my face in the playbook everyday till' I know it like my name. Follow victor Cruz. Study him and how he goes about things. Ask him to be your mentor. And hangout with Eli. Similar to what Cruz did last year. If he ask you to pick up some dunkin doughnuts after practice.....do it! He ain't throwing you the ball until he knows that you know your routes.

Nuts-and-bolts information to plan your trip, plus a checklist of essentials to include when you pack and a list of links to local media
Entry Requirements: U.S. citizens need a valid passport and visa.
Security: By world standards, Sydney is a safe city, but it's still prudent to keep your eye on your bags and your wallet in a secure pocket. Don't leave valuables on display in your car. Areas to avoid at night include the back streets of Woolloomooloo, Kings Cross, and Glebe.
Time: Sydney is 14 hours ahead of U.S. eastern standard time.
Money: Sydney's currency is the Australian dollar. For conversion rates visit www.oanda.com/convert/classic.
Phone Calls: Sydney's area code is 02. For calls to Sydney from within Australia, dial 02 before the eight-digit phone number. From outside Australia, dial your country's international access code followed by 61, 2, and the eight-digit number. Within Sydney, drop prefixes and use the eight-digit number. Local pay phone calls cost 50 cents.
When to Go: Sydney's weather is reliably good, with summer maximums around 77°F (25°C); 63°F (17°C) in winter. Rainfall peaks through late summer and autumn; winter and spring are drier. January is peak local holiday season.
Getting There: Sydney Airport (SYD; www.sydneyairport.com.au) is five miles (eight kilometers) south of downtown. Public transportation (bus and train) services the airport.
Getting Around: It's easy to get lost in Sydney and parking is expensive, but public transport (bus, train, and ferry) is excellent. Taxis are prevalent downtown; your hotel or restaurant can call one for you.
Tips: "March and April or September and October are the best times to visit, as the crowds have thinned and the weather is warm and sunny."—Anne Matthews, author, Fodor's Sydney's 25 Best guidebook. "Always bring layers in case of a sea breeze or sudden downpour."—Meg Worby, editor, Lonely Planet's Sydney Encounter and Sydney & New South Wales guidebooks
Passport/Visa: Australia has rigorous border controls. All visitors require a passport, valid for six months from entry. Proof of funds and an ongoing ticket may be requested. Visas are required for nationals of all countries except New Zealand. See www.immi.gov.au and www.eta.immi.gov.au for more information.
Sunscreen: Mandatory for any Sydney trip, even if you're not a beachgoer. Apply sunscreen to exposed skin at the start of each day, reapplying regularly.
Insect Repellent: Sydney summers can be hot and humid—ideal conditions for bugs and critters. The only ones to worry about, however, are mosquitoes ("mozzies" in local parlance). Apply insect repellent if you're sitting outside in the evening.
Hat: Australia has an alarmingly high incidence of skin cancer: Wear a broad-rimmed hat in summer.
Walking Shoes: Bring comfy shoes: Downtown Sydney is best explored on foot, and public transportation is easier than driving. "Take some sneakers for the magnificent cliff-top walk from Bondi Beach to Coogee Beach. Thongs/flip-flops are also a totally acceptable form of footwear."—Meg Worby
T-shirts, Shorts, and Skirts: Sydney is a casual town; T-shirts, shorts, and skirts are essential summer wear. "Bring a sarong as it's popular to come straight up from the beach for a lazy breakfast."—Meg Worby
Dress Clothes: "Sydney at night can be stylish, so pack something special: a cool, quality shirt or wrap. Strappy is fine and practical for both shoes and outfits."—Meg Worby
Umbrella: Sydney is prone to heavy rain from late summer through autumn. A compact umbrella is the perfect defense.

Project completed September 2015
Why is WSDOT
enhancing the Eastside transit and HOV system?
SR 520 is a busy regional corridor that connects Seattle and key Eastside communities, including Bellevue, Kirkland and Redmond. Population and employment have grown dramatically in these communities in recent years, leading to increased traffic and transit demand. This rise in congestion – and a roadway designed for the 1960s – has led to frustrating commutes and unreliable transit travel times.
The End Result
The Eastside Transit and HOV Project completed and improved the 2.3-mile HOV system from Evergreen Point Road in Medina to 108th Avenue Northeast in Bellevue. The improved six-lane corridor now includes two general-purpose lanes and one transit/HOV lane in each direction.The new inside HOV lanes west of 108th Avenue Northeast align with new median transit stops and direct-access ramps for carpools and buses. WSDOT's ultimate plan is to move SR 520's outside HOV lanes east of I-405 to the inside as well, but that move will first require some highway improvements around the SR 520 / I-405 interchange.
Project Benefits
The Eastside Transit and HOV Project provides mobility improvements for transit, general traffic and nonmotorized travel, along with environmental and community enhancements.Eastside transit service and mobility improvements:
Environmental and community enhancements
What is the project timeline?
Financial Information
This project was fully funded by a variety of state and federal sources, including SR 520 tolling that began in December 2011. We awarded a $306 million contract to Eastside Corridor Constructors for the Eastside project. Visit the SR 520 Budget and Performance page for additional information.

What is the OCC?
The Oral Communication Center is a place where you can go to receive one-to-one assistance with any stage of preparation (from brainstorming, to organizing your ideas, to polishing your delivery) for any kind of speaking assignment (from presentations to debates to leading a class session) or any speaking-related skill (from speech anxiety to effective listening to developing a PowerPoint presentation). A trained student consultant will work with you, provide suggestions and feedback, and help guide your preparation in the right direction. If you want to practice your speaking, you can choose to be videotaped, and the consultant will watch the video with you and provide helpful suggestions. The OCC also features a projector so you can work on and practice with your PowerPoint presentation.
The mission of the OCC is to help students learn how to ethically and effectively communicate their ideas in a manner appropriate to context and with consideration for diverse listeners. The goal is to empower students to participate effectively and meaningfully in academic, civic, professional, and social contexts throughout their lives by helping them develop oral communication skills that transcend the parameters of a particular assignment or project.

"I always get carried away when I'm kissing. I just go nuts! Walking away after it is the strangest moment for me. It's embarrassing -- not knowing what to say to each other."
"I don't know if I could ever really be cast in a heartthrob role apart from Twilight, which I didn't really know was a heartthrob role. I really don't feel I am one."
"I never really considered myself attractive. I was always kind of gangly in school."
Robert Pattinson (born Robert Douglas Thomas Pattinson in London, England on May 13, 1986) is a British actor and musician. Pattinson is best-known for playing Edward Cullen in the popular Twilight films. He has also been the lead in films like Remember Me, Water For Elephants, and Cosmopolis. He first gained international fame playing Cedric Diggory in Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. He is one of the richest young actors in the world, and in 2010 was named one of TIME's 100 Most Influential People in The World.

If you change your past and work together in a spirit that everyone of you, no matter to what community he belongs, no matter what relations he had with you in the past, no matter what his colour, caste or creed, is first, second and last a citizen of this State with equal rights, privileges and obligations, there will be no end to the progress you will make.-Muhammad Ali Jinnah
He got us, the Muslims, freedom by forming a political group called the Muslim League. When he talked to all the Muslims around in the sub-continent at that time, he said, "We are a nation with our own distinctive culture and civilization, language and literature, art and architecture, names and nomenclature, sense of values and proportion, legal laws and moral code, customs and calandar, history and tradition, aptitudes and ambitions; in short, we have our own distinctive outlook on life and of life. By all canons of international law, we are a nation."
The Muslim league had a great impact on the nature of the Indian politics. By making the Muslim League, it shattered forever Hindu dreams of a pseudo-India. The British and the Indians were shocked at how all the Muslims came up together, asking for them to give them their own free country, which is now Pakistan.
To get the Muslim people freedom, Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah played a big role. He was the only Muslim to stand up and rally all the Muslims together so they could have their freedom on Aug. 14, 1947. Before dying on Sept. 11th, 1948, he gave the Pakistanis a last message: "The foundations of your state have been laid and it is now for you to build and build as quickly and as well as you can."
Most people also admired him and one even said, "Gandhi died by the hands of an assassin; Jinnah died by his devotion to Pakistan".
That's why I really admire him. He is like a hero to everyone in my country. This is because of what he did for our country and for the Muslims. He fought so much for us and he did so much for us that no one can ever forget. You always hear about Gandhi and how he did so much for India, but you never hear about Quaid-e-Azam who did everything to get us at the point that we are right now. He is a great freedom hero for me.

Binghamton University Cinema Department unveils spring series
Binghamton University's Department of Cinema announces the line-up for its upcoming spring 2005 Film and Video Artists Series. Artists featured will be on hand to present their works. Most events will take place at 8 p.m. in Lecture Hall 6 on the campus unless otherwise indicated. The series is free and open to the public.
At 7 p.m. Tuesday, March 1, Ken Jacobs, distinguished professor emeritus at Binghamton University, will host part one of a screening of his film, Star Spangled to Death. Selected by the Los Angeles Film Critics as the best independent/experimental film of 2004, this collage combines found-films with Jacob's own more-or-less staged filming. The film offers a social critique picturing a stolen and dangerously sold out America, allowing examples of popular culture to self-indict. Part two of this film will be screened at 7 p.m. Wednesday, March 2.
On Thursday, March 10, New York City filmmaker and Hunter College faculty member, Michael Gitlin, will show his new documentary, The Bird People. This hour-long documentary is currently making the rounds at major film festivals and exhibition venues. Part cultural history and part self-reflexive anthropology, the film investigates the social construction of nature, centered on ornithology and its amateur counterpart, bird watching.
On March 16, Bruce McClure will screen four of his short films including Crib and Shift, Circle Jerks, Presepe and Chiodo. Using four modified 16mm film projectors, McClure will create a cinematic light performance by superimposing and manipulating the film frame. His work has been shown at the Whitney Biennial 2004; the Expanded Cinema Film Festival in Dortmond, Germany; the Evolution Film Festival 2004 in Leeds, United Kingdom; and the Op Film Festival, Cinema De Baile, in Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
On Monday, April 4, James Benning will present his new film, Thirteen Lakes. The film focuses on 13 large American lakes, including Salton Sea, Lake Powell and Lake Michigan, along with their geographical and historical relationship to the landscape. It shows Benning as he searches for locations and films the first two shots for his own film. After the screening, Benning will discuss his work methods, his relationship towards the United States, as well as his opinions about himself as an artist and filmmaker.
On Tuesday, April 19, the series will feature the best of the Black Maria Film + Video Festival. This fiercely independent annual festival consistently features in its juries well-known cinema luminaries. It offers an excellent opportunity to experience the latest offerings in the independent film and video arena.
On Wednesday, April 27, Martin Arnold, one of Australia's most distinguished experimental filmmakers and a newly hired Binghamton University faculty member, will present four of his latest films. Arnold's work has been featured in publications and recognized in exhibitions at prestigious American and European museums and festivals.
The Spring 2005 Film and Video Artists Series is funded in part by presentation funds from the Experimental Television Center, supported by the New York State Council on the Arts. The series is co-sponsored by the Harpur College Dean's Office. For more information, contact the Cinema Department at 607- 777-4998 or Vincent Grenier at 607-777-4997.

Children Can Be Expensive

With four kids, money rarely physically stays on my person for more than a minute. It comes directly from the ATM, barely touching down into my wallet, before it goes out to the waiting hands of a retail merchant. I think this is partly because of safety concerns, but also it's also somewhat due to our own gullibility in believing what they really "need."

UTSA provost's office announces staff changes
By Lydia Fletcher
Special Projects Writer, UTSA '07
(Aug. 9, 2007)--John McGowan recently was promoted from associate vice provost to vice provost for information technology.
Since joining UTSA last year, McGowan has been responsible for reorganizing Office of Information Technology departments and creating a more customer-centered organization committed to providing a high level of customer service to faculty, staff and students. McGowan is overseeing the development of new IT initiatives to help move UTSA toward premier research status.
Today's headlines
- La Prensa Foundation is newest member of UTSA Lone Star Society
- UTSA alumna Jordan Kaufmann wins $50K for new stent-graft start-up
- UTSA begins new way-finding sign installation this summer at Main Campus
- USA Today: UTSA long jumper Tyler Williamson rescues three-year-old boy
Article tools
"When I arrived at UTSA and OIT last year, I found that we were not working as a cohesive organization," McGowan said. "Each office within OIT was generally responsible for one, and only one, technical area. We needed to move away from the silo structure in order to communicate more efficiently, allowing us to be more productive and customer-focused. We encourage everyone to continue providing feedback to us so we can better serve the UTSA community's needs."
In the Office of the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs, Terry Wilson was appointed July 25 as assistant provost for academic budgets, planning and compliance. Wilson left UTSA in February to work at the University of Missouri - Kansas City. In May, she received her M.B.A. from UTSA.
"The time I spent as a student at UTSA provided me with a deeper appreciation for the learning that takes place here," said Wilson. "I am proud to be an alum, to have a daughter as an alum and to be working in what I consider to be a dynamic, collaborative and forward-looking environment that also conveys a sense of community."
Debbie Jamison replaces Jan Kruse, who retired in January. The recent recipient of a UTSA M.B.A., Jamison will serve as executive assistant in the Office of the Provost and Vice President for Academic Affairs.

Do you know how and why to calculate voltage drop?
Contrary to common belief, the NEC generally doesn't require you to size conductors to accommodate voltage drop. It merely suggests in the Fine Print Notes to 210.19(A), 215.2(A)(4), 230.31(C), and 310.15(A)(1) that you adjust for voltage drop when sizing conductors. It's important for you to remember that Fine Print Notes are recommendations, not requirements [90.5(C)]. The NEC recommends that the

Aesthetically, Tony Kanaan described the new car with a reconfigured aerodynamic package for the Indianapolis Motor Speedway and Auto Club Speedway as "slick."
Adding his on-track perspective, Kanaan said the Dallara chassis tested April 4 at Indianapolis Motor Speedway was superior to the chassis prototype he and Dario Franchitti drove on the 2.5-mile oval in autumn.
"It was more balanced than it was last year," Kanaan said. "We worked on it, we talked about it. Some people criticized (the car) at the end of last year, but it's a new car and we have to figure it out. Dallara did a great job, along with (INDYCAR vice president of technology) Will Phillips and the people at INDYCAR. It's going in the right direction.
"I went out of the pits and went flat out right away, so I have to say that the aero kit is definitely a little bit better. We're going to see some quality drivers giving positive feedback so when we come back here in May we can have the right stuff."
Click it: Combined test Timing & Scoring report || Video: Ed Carpenter on the oval
Nine IZOD IndyCar Series drivers participated in the morning and afternoon sessions on an off week in the schedule. Kanaan's No. 11 entry joined four other cars powered by Chevrolet – Ed Carpenter (owner/driver for Ed Carpenter Racing), Marco Andretti (Andretti Autosport), JR Hildebrand (Panther Racing) and Helio Castroneves (Team Penske).
Scott Dixon (Target Chip Ganassi Racing), Takuma Sato (Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing), Mike Conway (A.J. Foyt Racing) and Justin Wilson (Dale Coyne Racing) ran with Honda's 2.2-liter, turbocharged V-6 engine. A total of 495 laps were recorded on a breezy, mid-60s day.
Laying a foundation was the goal of teams. Characteristics of the car-engine package, along with tire wear, need to be discerned for initial setups for practice that begins May 12. Engineers then can dial in the car for qualifications and Race Day.
"It's different, no question about it, because we're so used to the other car," series championship points leader and three-time Indianapolis 500 champion Helio Castroneves said. "Like anything else you have to develop it, and right now that's what we're doing. Every time we are at this place it's extremely important because you find out what to do and what not to do."
The only mandatory part of the Speedway aero kit that teams had to utilize was the new rear-wheel guards that are taller, lighter and have a slightly different shape than the sets being used on the road/street circuits and the oval races at Texas Motor Speedway, Iowa Speedway and the Milwaukee Mile.
Teams could experiment with a rear-wing mainplane angle of between 0 and -10 degrees, underwing strakes and sidewall extensions (to keep air from becoming turbulent under the car), wickers on the front- and rear-wing mainplanes and the beam wing, and radiator inlet shutters.
The rear-wheel guard/wings work in combination with the other bodywork to create less drag and more downforce. Minimum car weight will be 1,535 pounds (excluding driver and driver equivalency weight).
"The configuration we have now is the one we intend to come back with in May," Phillips said. "We need to look at what comes out of today and see if anything further needs to be changed. We'll get some feedback from teams and drivers (regarding) what the car is like in traffic and what it's like on their own."
The Dallara-designed and -produced components were tested in winter in both scale model and full size in the wind tunnel at the Auto Research Center in North Carolina in conjunction with INDYCAR in response to lap speeds and handling deemed inadequate the testing by Kanaan and Franchitti.
"Springs, ride heights … just trying to get the aero to the right attitude of these corners," said Justin Wilson of Dale Coyne Racing. "It's just a steep learning curve the first time out on the track. Once you're behind the wheel, it feels similar to the old car through the corners."
Pole Day is May 19 and Miller Lite Carb Day, featuring the final practice, pit stop competition, the Freedom 100 Firestone Indy Lights race and mid-afternoon concert by Lynyrd Skynrd, is May 25.

Northern Idaho police search for shooting suspect
COEUR D'ALENE, Idaho - The FBI is offering a $20,000 reward for information leading to a man suspected of firing at an Idaho State Police trooper during a chase and later kidnapping a Rathdrum woman who was dropped off unharmed in eastern Montana.
Kootenai County court records say a woman called 9-1-1 Sunday to report her sister-in-law said she had been kidnapped at gunpoint by Mitchell Lee Walck, who had been hiding at her house after a police pursuit Saturday in which an officer was fired upon.
Investigators say the 62-year-old woman was released unharmed in Glendive, Mont.
Walck was last seen driving the woman's 2005 silver Subaru Forester with Idaho license plate K230050. The woman said Walck took two guns from her house.
A warrant was issued for Walck's arrest based on the kidnapping charge.
The Region One Critical Incident Task Force is investigating the early morning officer involved shooting in Rathdrum. The Post Falls Police Department is assisting in the investigation.
Walck is a transient who is known to frequent churches in attempt to solicit assistance. He has been known to repeatedly change his appearance, shaving all but his mustache, dying it and his hair black. He is 5'7" tall and 175 pounds, with brown eyes.
Walck should be considered armed and dangerous. If you see him, authorities urge you to call 9-1-1.

Discussion in 'Fan Zone' started by ufcrules1, Dec 24, 2012.
Does anyone here know what it would be in both scenarios?
As far as who we play based on standing?
I know we play NFC north (Vikings, green bay @ home)
And AFC west (Denver, kc @ home)
It's a conspiracy either way
I believe we get the AFC West (Denver and KC @ home, San Diego and Oakland on the road) and the NFC North (GB and MIN @ home, CHI and DET on the road). If we won the NFC East, we'd face the Falcons and 49ers or Seahawks (depending on who wins the division). If we finish second, we'd most likely play the Saints again and the second place. If we finish third, we'd play the Bucs or Panthers and the Rams. And then you have the 6 division games.
With regard to the two games that aren't pre-determined, we'll play the same slot team from the NFC West at home and the NFC South on the road.
So a win will result in Atlanta on the road and either SF or Sea at home.
We likely finish third with a loss, which would result in St. Louis at home and the loser of Carolina/New Orleans on the road.
I believe we'd finish second if we lose and the Giants lose to Philly, which would then be whichever of SF/Sea doesn't win the West at home, and the winner or Carolina/New Orleans on the road.
So it looks like this right now below? Also, I assume if we lose to the Redskins and the Giants beat the Eagles, we would finish in 3rd place again in our division.
Giants, Eagles, Redskins at home and on the road.
Green Bay at home
Minny at home
Denver at home
Oakland at home
Chicago on the road
Detroit on the road
KC on the road
San Diego on the road
NFC south foe on the road (Either Atlanta, Saints,Panthers or Bucs)
NFC west foe at home (Either SF, Seattle, or Rams)
Thanks man. Very helpful!
We play Oakland in Oakland next year. Not a home game.
Are you sure about that?
They changed the rotation after 2009. We play Oakland at home.
We played oak and sd at home in 09, I am pretty sure we play them on the road next year.
The rotation was changed so teams would not have to make multiple West Coast trips in a season.
I am 100% certain on this. We play Oakland at home next year.
My money is on this guy ^^ I'm almost positive we play them at home as well.
Please click one of the Quick Reply icons in the posts above to activate Quick Reply.
I think Hos made a thread for this for the next few years a while back.
Really? I wasn't aware of that. So do we play San Diego away? I was really wanting to make a trip for that game.
Yes. We play at SD and KC
Sweet! Los Borrachos invasion in SD next season. Home game like whoa!
Why would we play at KC? In 2009 thats where Miles had his breakout game.

Bart and Lisa Taylor named Crosslake Days royalty
After competing in the Crosslake Days Chili Cookoff for 18 years, Bart Taylor and his wife, Lisa, will be taking a new role in the annual event — the two were named Crosslake Days royalty..
Bart and Lisa, longtime residents of Crosslake, both grew up with family cabins on the Whitefish Chain. It was in Crosslake that the two met at a Lions Club spaghetti dinner.
The Taylors say the whole family loves living on the Whitefish Chain.
Bart and Lisa's two children, Hannah, 9, and Millie, 6, enjoy wakeboarding, knee boarding and water-skiing. Lisa, too, is a water-skier.
When they're not on the lakes, Bart is branch president of Riverwood Bank in both Crosslake and Baxter. Lisa is in sales for her family's company, Karlsburger Foods. She also helps out with reading at Crosslake Community School.
The two are also involved in Mount Ski Gull. Bart is vice chair of the board of directors, and he said the whole family enjoys downhill skiing.
Skiing is just one of many wintertime activities Lisa said the family enjoys, including ice fishing, snowmobiling and ice skating.
Bart is a member of the Crosslake-Ideal Lions Club and spent many years with the chamber of commerce both as a member and board member.
They say they prefer living in a small community like Crosslake.
"One of the coolest things is you pretty much know everybody in town," Bart said.
"I love the small community and the way everybody helps each other out. I like a small-town feel," Lisa said.
Bart usually makes chili for Riverwood Bank in the cookoff, and Lisa has helped the students at Crosslake Community School with their chili.
Unfortunately, Bart won't continue in his tradition of competing in the chili cookoff, an event in which he's won several awards.
This is because of Minnesota Department of Health laws that require that all meat be prepared in a commercial kitchen, something Bart doesn't have access to.
Bart said his secret ingredient in the chili was smoked pork shoulder and beef brisket, an ingredient that takes time. He had been using his personal smoker for the meat.
He's outspoken about his personal disagreement with the health department's rules.
"I understand that there is always some risk in food-borne illness," he said. "But, call me crazy, I feel I should have the freedom of choice (for a charity event in this great country) to cook my chili's meat in my smoker behind my house."
While he's disappointed he won't be participating in the chili competition, he's excited to try other businesses' chili. In the past, he's been so busy serving his 10 gallons of chili that he hasn't made it to other competitors' sites.
Cindy Myogeto of the Crosslake Chamber of Commerce said the criteria for becoming Crosslake Days royalty is all about the Crosslake community. Royalty, she said, are community supporters, Crosslake cheerleaders and people who are involved in community events and organizations.
The Taylors are all of these things, Myogeto said.
"They're just good community people."

The Greenhouse Effect: Why is the Earth's Surface So Much Warmer than the Earth as Seen from Space?
This activity is part of the community collection of teaching materials on climate and energy topics.
These materials were submitted by faculty as part of the CLEAN Climate Workshop, held in June, 2011 and are not yet part of the CLEAN collection of reviewed resources.
Topic: Analysis of energy budgets to understand the greenhouse effect and global warming.
Course type: Introductory, non-majors' college level
This activity teaches Climate Literacy Essential Principle 2: Climate is regulated by complex interactions among components of the Earth system
This activity teaches Concept C - Greenhouse Effect. The amount of solar energy absorbed or radiated by Earth is modulated by the atmosphere and depends on its composition. Greenhouse gases— such as water vapor, carbon dioxide, and methane— occur naturally in small amounts and absorb and release heat energy more efficiently than abundant atmospheric gases like nitrogen and oxygen. Small increases in carbon dioxide concentration have a large effect on the climate system.
GoalsStudents should be able to do the following:
- Explain how the greenhouse effect works, in terms of several basic physical principles applied to long-term, global average energy budgets for the atmosphere and the earth's surface.
- Explain why adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere unbalances the energy budgets for the atmosphere and the earth's surface and leads to global warming.
DescriptionIn this activity (Microsoft Word 2007 (.docx) 283kB Jun15 11), students, working in small groups, respond to a series of questions asking them to analyze a diagram of the long-term, global average energy budgets for the atmosphere and the earth's surface (below). They then are asked to explain how the greenhouse effect works in terms of several basic physical principles applied to their analysis. Finally, they are asked to apply the same principles to the predict changes in global average atmospheric and surface temperatures as a result of adding greenhouse gases to the atmosphere.
- Formative assessment: The instructor circulates among the groups, monitoring their progress, and addresses conceptual difficulties of individual groups or the class as a whole as needed.
- Formative assessment: At several points during the activity itself, the instructor asks randomly selected students to communicate their group's response (and reasoning) for individual questions, and facilitates discussion, provides supplemental instruction, and reinforces points, as needed.
- Summative assessment: Multiple choice or matching questions about many aspects of the energy budget diagram can be formulated and administered on a quiz or exam. Explanations of how several basic physical principles applied to the long-term, global average energy budgets tell us (1) how the greenhouse effect works, and (2) how adding greenhouse gases would lead to warmer global average temperatures, would better be solicited as a short essay question on a quiz or exam, though other assessments are possible.
- Other Assessment Ideas for GHE activity (Microsoft Word 518kB Jun20 11)
Connections to other Activities
This activity is one of a suite of five activities designed to address the concepts that address how the greenhouse effect influences global temperature (Principle 2, Concept C) which can be used individually or combined as desired.
A recommended "warm-up" activity to prepare students better to tackle this one might be What is the Earth's Average Temperature, in which students apply the same basic physical principles to satellite observations of the planetary energy budget to determine the average temperature of the planet as a whole and contrast that with the global average surface temperature.

The University of Hawaii softball team completed a series sweep with a 9-3 win at Cal State Northridge Sunday.
The Rainbow Wahine pulled away from the Matadors with a six-run outburst in the fourth inning and claimed the third game of their opening series of the Big West Conference season.
UH pitcher Kaia Parnaby earned the complete-game victory to improve to 23-3.
UH (25-7, 3-0 BWC) went ahead in the first inning when Jessica Iwata drew a bases-loaded walk. Senior Tara Anguiano ignited UH's rally in the fourth inning with an RBI single to score pinch-runner Kiani Wong. The Wahine strung together four hits with two out, extending the lead on Kelly Majam's two-run double, Kayla Wartner's single, a triple by Keiki Carlos and a double by Iwata.
Leisha Li'ili'i hit her third home run of the series in the sixth inning to give UH an 8-1 lead. Jazmine Zamora then tripled and scored on an illegal pitch.
CSUN (14-21, 0-3) scored single runs in the sixth and seventh before Parnaby closed out the game.
No. 20/23 UH returns home this week for a three-game series against UC Davis starting Friday at Rainbow Wahine Softball Stadium.

FONTANA - Three men are now behind bars in connection with the attack on a Fontana man who was shot in the head and left to languish for two days, according to Fontana police.
Andrew Pacheco, 21, and Aaron Bustos, 23, both of Fontana, were arrested Wednesday evening at Villa Motel in the 15200 block of Foothill Boulevard, Sgt. Robert Morris said.
Adrian Blanusa, 30, a known gang member with an arrest warrant from Los Angeles County and another case pending in Fontana, was already in custody at West Valley Detention Center in Rancho Cucamonga.
Morris said the man was shot in the head Dec. 15 in an apartment in the 8100 block of Wheeler Avenue.
Two days later, the wounded man was discovered in the apartment. He remains in serious condition.
The police investigation led officers to Blanusa. He was arrested Dec. 28.
Police have not identified a motive in the shooting, but records indicate all three men have been charged with robbery.
Blanusa has a pending court date in Fontana Superior Court on charges that he used someone's credit card or identity for burglary.
Pacheco's record indicates he has been arrested on suspicion of burglary, disorderly conduct and false representation to a peace officer.
Bustos has been previously arrested on suspicion of burglary, being a prisoner in possession of a weapon, disorderly conduct and carrying a dirk or dagger.
They were booked on suspicion of attempted murder, robbery, assault with a deadly weapon and participation in a criminal street gang.
Authorities ask anyone with information to call the Fontana Police Department at 909-350-7700.

I feel open source programs are good to release under GPL, large libraries and frameworks are good under LGPL, and code snippets or small libraries are best under zlib or similar.
It's funny, because I've seen it so often, when people release their software under an expatlike license (one of the many-fold MIT, BSD, or zlib licenses) and then get all round-eyed and outraged because someone else takes the code and modifies it and sells the software for a fee and doesn't make their code available or even acknowledge the original author.
Really, I don't like it when there is a 20 line piece of code that is available for free, that I then have to bother tracking who created it, and make sure to give them credit for their 1/200000th share of the code in my project. Oftentimes, I find it easier to just to write my own so I don't have to bother with their version. But if they truly want to make something available for use that can fit within a single blog post, or is a single header file, make it public domain or MIT-like.
It's not that I don't want to give credit where credit is due, it's just that for a small chunk of code, it's just not worth the hassle and legal risk if I forget to credit all 30 people that once posted something on some site somewhere that I once used sometime in the past two years in one codebase that now is being used in a new project. It's not just the crediting either - I have to get their licenses, and make sure users can tell license #22 goes to code snippet #22, even though license #22 is the same license as license #15, #17, and #4, and a slightly modified version of license #12 and #14.
For larger chunks of code (like libraries) it's totally worth the minor inconvenience.
In a related note, it's a pain to track down all the licenses for the sound samples maybe-used by the composer who's working for you (quite generously for free! So it's worth the hassle - but it's still a pain), because the composer doesn't fully understand the legal aspect of "free" sound samples downloaded from sites.
Creative Commons Attribution is great! Except for a 1/15th second whistle that's only used once in a 5 minute song.

Posted by Thomas Husson on May 23, 2014
Japanese consumers are among the most mobile-savvy in the world: They were shopping, banking, and gaming on mobile phones long before consumers in other nations. The Japanese mobile ecosystem used to be unique; telecom operators specified to Japanese handset manufacturers the design of services to implement on multimedia phones. This is changing in an app world.
Indeed, the mobile market is opening up quickly to the smartphone app ecosystem. While Japan is a mobile-centric society, smartphone adoption has lagged behind other major markets. Many international brands launched their first mCommerce initiatives in Japan several years ago, but the market subsequently disappeared from the innovation radar due to the US-centric smartphone app ecosystem. But this is changing. It is time to take another look at Japan to uncover how the nation is combining innovation and scale as its market embraces smartphone apps.
More than a decade ago, I had the opportunity to work with NTT DoCoMo to introduce i-mode — the mobile multimedia service in France. At that time, Japan was clearly two to three years ahead of the rest of the mobile world. The Japanese market — and more specifically, the i-mode business model — is rumored to have inspired Steve Jobs to launch the Apple App Store. After that, Silicon Valley became the new source of innovation and inspiration for mobile marketers. Now that the app ecosystem has come full circle, marketers should again consider mobile marketing in Japan, benefiting from a more open ecosystem to distribute their apps and engage with Japanese customers. I recently spent a full week in Japan, and it is fascinating to see the relationship people have with mobile phones over there.
There are lots of lessons to learn from the likes of Rakuten, Line, Felica, Softbank, or NTT DoCoMo and from a mature ecosystem of mobile contactless and connective-tissue technologies.

TIME For Kids and KidsHealth.org asked kids about life in the United States. Find out what they had to say.
On February 12, President Barack Obama will deliver an important speech to the American people and Congress: the State of the Union Address. In his speech, he will report on how well the country is doing.
But what about the nation's kids? TIME For Kids and KidsHealth.org wanted to know how things are going for you. To find out, we took a poll. We asked thousands of kids ages 7 to 13 about life here in the U.S.*
Things Are Looking Up
Do you see the glass half full? Many kids do. Four out of five say things are going well for them. And even more than that—96%—believe their future is going to be great. Nine out of 10 kids say that here in the United States, it is possible to grow up and be whatever you want.
Most kids already have a career in mind. Boys and girls told us they dream of becoming teachers, professional athletes, doctors, veterinarians and video-game designers. Overall, those who answered the poll think that enjoying your job and helping others is more important than making a lot of money.
Kids are also optimistic about our country. Four out of five say the United States is a world leader. Just as many kids believe that people all around the world respect America.
TIME For Kids and KidsHealth.org conducted a similar poll in 2009. Back then, kids were less confident in our country's leadership. When asked to grade President Obama, only about half of kids said he deserved high marks for what he had accomplished. This time around, three out of five children gave Obama an A or a B.
What Worries Kids
Even though kids feel positive about many aspects of life, they still feel worried at times. In fact, from 2009 to 2012, kids say their worries have increased. Bullying is a concern for nearly half of all the children we heard from. This is a change from 2009, when only a third of kids said they were worried about bullies. "Bullying really hurts people," says Autumn, 12, of Maine. "It should be stopped."
Three out of four 7- to 13-year-olds worry about friendships and homework. Even more kids lie awake, concerned about family. If she could have one wish granted, says Anna Kate, 10, of South Carolina, "[I would want] to have my family safe and protected at all times."
Family Matters
Kids told us many times how much family means to them. When asked who they look up to most, more than three out of four children selected a family member. Most chose their parents. "My mom is always there for me," said Dalina, 10, of California. "I could go on and on talking about how great she is."
For many kids, dinner is a time to spend with family. Nearly six out of 10 kids eat dinner with their family five or more times each week, while eight out of 10 do so at least once a week.
All in a Day
Dinner may be a good time to talk about the day and catch up with family. But many kids—at least one in 10—think it's okay to send text messages at the dinner table. Almost as many say it's just fine to text in class.
Just how much time are kids spending on their phones? About one-third of the poll responders say they use their phone 15-45 minutes each day. But some kids—one out of 10—admit to spending five or more hours on the phone on a typical day.
How much is too much? The answer may depend on whether kids have time for other activities. Most say they use the computer, read for fun and go outside to play every day.
Most impressive of all, nine out of 10 kids say they find time to help others on a daily basis. With that as a goal, it is no wonder that most children feel certain that in 10 years, the world will be a better place.
*This survey was conducted online from October to December 2012, among a sample of 5,212 children ages 7-13.

I wish we had him back, easily my favorite Giants running back since Rodney Hampton...scratch that, Sean Bennett was my favorite after Hampton. A white dude that can run you over, it's a shame injuries ended his career.
Anyone remember Sean Bennett? He was a beast in the pre-season, and really looked like he could shred the defense.
LOL read your name real quick, thought it said "DAT TOE"
I'd bring him back just for the camaraderie and the fire he might engender in the locker room. This current group seems to lack a fire in their bellies that BJ had in spades
"Release the Kraken!"
- Dan Dierdorf, Giants vs Dolphins, 10/30/2011
