These are gorgeous! I had an almond croissant in New York City this weekend. I'll put it on my "to-make" list.
Almond croissants.
I couldn't believe what I tasted when I took the first bite from this croissant. The croissant is buttery and flaky (credits to the bakery though) and the filling is full of rich, moist frangipane. This is definetly my new favorite breakfast. It's even way better than incredible Sunday morning Eggs Benedict, that should tell you enough.
Recipe adapted from Tartine, by Elisabeth Prueitt and Chad Robertson.
2 parts almond paste (in Dutch this is called amandelspijs)
1 part egg
1 part melted butter
Brandy syrup:
100 g caster sugar
75 g water
2 tbsp brandy
sliced almonds
This recipe will make enough syrup for 12 croissants, but you can scale down the recipe very easily. I left out the brandy because I didn't have any and I've used a different recipe for the frangipane than the book. Because I've made a whole batch and stored the leftovers in the freezer, I'm not quite sure what the exact amounts are which you'll need for your croissants. I've used 160 g of almond paste, 80 g of egg and 80 g of melted butter. I've used about 2/3 of the mixture for four croissants. This should give you a rough indication of much you should make.
Preheat the oven to 180˚C/350˚F.
Put the sugar and water in a small saucepan and place it over low heat. Don't let it bowl, just make sure the sugar is incorporated. Turn of the heat, add the brandy and stir.
Cut your almond paste in little cubes and place them into a mixing bowl. Melt the butter (in a microwave or in a pan), pour it over the almond paste and add the eggs. Whisk it with an electric mixer, make sure all the little chunks of almond paste are gone and it has become a creamy almond batter, this is called frangipane.
Slice your croissants horizontally. Moisten both the bottom and the top on the cut sides with the syrup. Spread a good amount of frangipane on the bottom half of the croissant, place the top side back on top of the bottom. Spread some more frangipane on top of the croissant and sprinkle with sliced almonds.
Place the croissants on a baking sheet and bake for 20-30 minutes.
The filling will be quite hot when the croissants come out of the oven. Leave them to cool for a couple of minutes and practice your patience, otherwise you'll burn your mouth just as I did.

Staff,rooms and food very good
The hotel is very comfortable. good breakfast.
We have appreciated very much the attention of all the staff. The hotel is new and we feel comfortable there. The rooms are nice and clean. The toilet is also modern and easy to use. The location is good. It is relatively far from the city and is quiet. However, it central to the Douro area and is a good starting point to visit it, including Amarante, Porto, the river Douro, etc. For those who travel in family, it is also important to say that there is a recreation park nearby, the "Bracalândia" park, which is a sort of little "Isla magica". Finally, there is also the pool in the hotel. But for more about the pool see below. The spa and pool are not exactly owned by the hotel, but it seemed to me that it belongs to another owner. The staff there is not as nice as in the hotel. I think they try to keep a quiet ambience in the in the installations, and so they react a little bit negatively to the presence of kids. Actually, there is a restricted period when the kids are allowed, which is from 10h-12h and 15h-17h. We did not know about that, and had to wait to get in! Apart that, the rest was ok.
welcoming, excellent facilities, friendly staff, excellent spa & indoor pool Canned music at breakfast! Could also be more variety of food at breakfast
The staff, bedroom and food. The hotel is still being done. It should be noticed what is available at the hotel information page.
the room food and spa were very good. the hotel is easy to find and in walking distans from the city
Everything was relexing. Nice people. Nice place. Nice food at the breakfast. Very good! Everything was good!
Very nice, modern hotel, good location
We needed to leave reasonably promptly in the morning to catch a flight and the hotel were a little reluctant to begin breakfast before 7.30am
Beautiful modern hotel in beautiful surroundings, will return for sure. Breakfast coffe not served at tables. I am a coffe drinker and had to get up many times just to get a cup of coffe
Nice room, with a lot of space, two LCD TV. Air conditioning not working.
The hotel was clean and modern, the staff helpful and friendly. The shower was a bit substandard (temperature and pressure variable). The Restaurant was closed on the Sunday night of our stay - which was a nuisance as we'd been looking forward to eating there. However, we were able to find a very friendly Portuguese place in the town - great food at very reasonable price.
Lovely well designed, clean hotel , well mannered helpful staff, well worth the money would 100% return at a later date. Pool would be nice and slightly more variety for breakfast would be good
The very friendly staff and the good location in a quiet area
Service, hotel cleanliness, breakfast internet wifi
Good, modern and spacious hotel apartment with friendly staff and excellent breakfast. Nice place to stay if you have a car and want to explore the Douro region. It is a long way from Porto centre and deceiving in its description.
Very clean, nice apartment, good equipment. Wireless internet is not avaiable in all rooms. Only few parking places.
Clean, well appointed room and very good value. I arrived at 10.00pm as the restuarant was closing but they stayed open for me and provided soup and an omelete No
Q: What did you like during your stay? A: Not very much! 1. The room was very sparsely furnished and the bed made a loud creak everytime we moved! 2. There is a real problem with the drains. They stink! 3.The food served at lunch & dinner was very disappointing. "Quantity, not Quality" seems to be the motto here. Having had a very poor and badly served lunch comprising lukewarm soup, soggy fried fish with par-bolied rice (no vegetables or salad to be seen) we were reluctant to try the dinner but in the rather charmless village of São Vicente, there is very little alternative for dining out - other than cafés & Pizzerias - so we reluctantly stayed for an evening meal. It was worse than lunch (altho the waiter was more sympathetic than his lunchtime colleague) & mostly inedible & was sent back.
Quiet place, clean hotel, for the service very good value, friendly personal
Very nice people, very comfortable room, nice and quiet, beautiful building, Spa features in real thermal facilities. Huge breakfast in bedroom for a very reasonable fee. Excellent value for money ratio The room was quite cold, was adjusted in reception, when asked it was tuned to a nice temperature. The construction works on a independent building in the estate gave not such a nice surroundings to the hotel.

The Walt Disney World Resort in Florida is the world's largest leisure complex. Guests at Disney's All-Star Sports Resort (photo), one of the giant amusement park's 23 hotels, will encounter their favorite cartoon characters in active sports mode.
The historical documents that are preserved at the National Library of France in Paris include the Sun King's collected bibles as well as popular advertising leaflets. The reading room beneath the ancient dome was recently modernized, but reverential silence still reigns.
So you think city breaks in the middle of summer are a dumb idea? They're not – as long as you choose the right city.
The climate may be harsh and the temperatures may not rise much above 20° C, but Edinburgh draws multitudes of tourists in the summer – thanks in part to its great arts festival. The International Festival and the alternative Fringe take place this year from August 4 to 28.
Why go to bed if it doesn't get dark? From early June until mid-July, St. Petersburg is enveloped in a velvety twilight all night long. All manner of cultural events take place during the famous "White Nights," including concerts and opera and theater premieres, and nobody goes to bed until dawn.
Buenos Aires, the Argentine capital, is perfect for a city break during the northern hemisphere's summer months because its winters are so mild. Montevideo, Uruguay's capital, is also well worth a visit – and it's only a ferry ride away across the Rio de la Plata river.
Enter through the mouth of a bug-eyed beast and you will find yourself inside the Kawaii Monster Café in Tokyo, where lifesize gummibears and a cake-shaped carousel await – and you are served by aliens. The food is also odd: pastel-colored pasta, candy salads and ice cream in every color of the rainbow.

This video will rock any parent to the core
This video is making news outlets everywhere, and parents are outraged... with good reason.
It is said that this didn't happen in the USA, and it could possibly be from a country where there are a lot of kidnappings, so children are "marked" for identification.
Even with that being said, we don't understand how any parent would do this to their child....
Do you think tattoing a toddler is ok in ANY situation?

Last month at TakePart I reported on a Tampa father, Carlo De Leonibus, who brought his family to SeaWorld Orlando, only to witness and videotape a juvenile pilot whale stuck in the concrete slide-out, struggling to free itself. The video went global and De Leonibus, overnight, became and anti-captivity activist on behalf of whales and dolphins. His young daughter Cat no longer wants to be a dolphin trainer at SeaWorld, she now wants to be a marine biolgist.
And just yesterday, TakePart reported on another young father, this time from Ontario, Canada, named Tom Blake, who brought his own family, including two children ages 2 and 5, to see the shows at Marineland, near Niagara Falls. During a segment in which two trainers performed in the water with two belugas, the beguiling white whales known for their docility, the young female trainer was injured and hauled up on the slide-out area by her colleague, writing in pain. It would appear that the whale might have bitten down on her knee, though Marineland has not responded to requests for more information.
Blake videotaped the incident and posted it on YouTube. On Friday evening, he posted another video, showing the paramedic arriving to assist the trainer.
He also replied by phone to an email sent by TakePart.
Blake took exception to TakePart's headline suggesting the incident was an "attack," or even and act of aggression. And unlike De Leonibus and his family, who turned against captivity and SeaWorld, Blake firmly remains a loyal fan of Marineland, and the performances it puts on with animals and trainers in the water together.
"It was not a vicious attack," says Blake, who describes himself as "an average Canadian from the subdivision," about 45 minutes east of Toronto. His family has season tickets to Marineland. "To use the word 'attack' is very judgmental. The connotations do not match what we experienced. We didn't get that, we didn't see a danger."
Blake says he was videotaping the show "for fun" when his wife drew his attention to something going on in the water. Seconds later, the female trainer was pulled from the water. "She was not happy. She was distraught and crying in pain," he recalls. "Once the paramedic arrived, it was apparent she couldn't be pulled up. She could not walk."
In the videos, the show continues even as the medic tends to the wounded trainer on the slideout. Eventually, the performance was halted, about 10 minutes before normal, Blake says. "The Marineland people were pretty good. They came over to tend to and comfort their colleague." The woman was reportedly taken to a local hospital.
Meanwhile, Blake's YouTube video received many negative comments from anti-captivity viewers, who chastised him for taking his family to Marineland in the first place. The same thing happened to De Leonibus in Florida, even though his experience turned him squarely against the industry.
Blake, a solid supporter of Marineland, did not want to be bombarded with criticism for posting the video. As he wrote on the YouTube page:
Apparently this video has been picked up by a blog, resulting in many commentors of an activist nature. The majority of commentors apparently feel that I need to be on their side with respect to animal rights. I posted this video because it was interesting, and maybe because it might be of use for the injured employee. Spare me your judgement regarding animal and mammal rights.. If you feel that Marineland has broken laws, please contact the authorities. If you feel that the laws are not restrictive enough, please contact the authorities. Don`t lobby me, because this is your cause, not mine. To that end, I have disabled commenting.
"Zoos have been around a long time," he says. "Zoos have a place, as long as everything is done correctly. I'm on board (with Marineland). It's a zoo."
The "average Canadian" does, however, acknowledge that life in captivity for whales and dolphins "is very different from them existing in circumstances in the wild. But I don't know if it's a big issue. Perhaps my viewpoint could be changed with published research."
Maybe he should pick up a copy Death at SeaWorld. There are dozens of peer-reviewed studies, with endnote references, discussed throughout the narrative. Taken together, they paint a grim picture of captive cetacean ill-health, emotional and physical stress, and aggressive acts against each other, and their human caretakers.

Wiki Help
|About this wiki
This is the help page for editing the OpenStreetMap wiki. For support related to any other aspect of OpenStreetMap, please see the Main Help Page.
Getting started with wiki editing
We aim to build a user friendly wiki that helps OpenStreetMap contributors and users find the information they need quickly and easily. If you can help, please feel free to edit this wiki. Our general advise is to be bold - if a page can be improved, go forth and do it!
Jump straight in: Click 'Edit' at the top of any page, to edit the contents. You do need to create a wiki account before editing.
For introductory instructions on editing wiki pages, see Help:Wiki-Editing. This explains some of the wiki text syntax for achieving special effects in the text such as bold and italic text. You may also wish to visit Wikipedia's help. Wikipedia is the largest online Wiki, and has detailed articles covering almost every imaginable aspect of editing pages. It also has a group of volunteers who answer questions and provide help with editing. The OpenStreetMap Wiki shares the same platform as Wikipedia (namely Mediawiki), so much of what works there will work here too.
Mediawiki software
We cannot cover every topic about Mediawiki at https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/. Please refer to MediaWiki main help site.
Wiki guidelines
Main article: Wiki guidelines
Remember that anyone can edit anything on the OSM Wiki. This includes you. When adding to the wiki, you should seek to find the correct place within the current structure, to build upon the information we already have. This is better than creating a new page as your page where things are written your way. Also be prepared for others to edit the page after you.
The wiki currently needs some re-organisation, and this effort is being coordinated at WikiProject Cleanup. Large-scale re-arrangements or deletions may be necessary in order to achieve this. Feel free to get involved, but for any change which might be viewed as destructive, you should leave a trail of comments on the associated discussion pages, to explain what you are doing and why. For really big changes which might upset someone, it is best to hold a discussion about it first. Propose the change, discuss it, and reach agreement on the best organisation. Different people have different ideas for how to organise the wiki pages.
History and Discussion
All wiki pages have an associated history page where you can view previous versions of the page. You can also undo a recent edit if you are not happy with the result (although it is always worth previewing any changes before saving an edit). This can be accessed at the top right of each wiki page.
In addition to a history, all wiki pages also include a talk page. This is an ideal place to discuss potential changes to a page, particularly if they are large or could be deemed as controversial. This can be accessed by clicking "Discussion" at the top of each page.
Make a user page
You may want to start by editing your user page. If you wish to tell the OSM community where you are (for example, so neighboring OSM members can collaborate with you to map your locale), place some category links like the following at the bottom of your user page, as necessary to identify the area(s) you want to help map:
[[Category:Users in Country]] [[Category:Users in State/Province]] [[Category:Users in City]]
Note that creating a user page is currently (2016.01.19) not possible using the Google Chrome browser, because the 'captcha' box (enter the characters shown in the box below) is not displayed. It works fine with Internet Explorer, however.
You may also create user subpages, to practice editing before you post something to the main Wiki. Wikipedia provides some help on this.
If you upload images of you or other specific for the user page, place it in Category:User images with code [[Category:User images]].
At your personal page, you can place ready stickers with various information using custom templates. Choose Userboxes by visiting the Category:Userbox.
Display OpenStreetMap
This is the OpenStreetMap wiki - of course you can insert the OSM's map into any pages. If you want to use static map image, see Simple image MediaWiki Extension. If you want to use dynamic Slippy Map, see Slippy Map MediaWiki Extension.
Include images from Wikimedia Commons
Since April 2009 it is possible to include images from Wikimedia Commons on the OSM wiki.
Short HowTo: look at Wikimedia Commons for the desired picture and embed it here like this:
Options for resizing and placement are
[[Image:image.png|thumb/frame|left/right/center|size in px (e.g. 100px)| alt=text describing picture (useful for people with screenreaders)| description here is displayed below the image]]
[[Image:Dunvegan_Castle_in_the_mist01editcrop_2007-08-22.jpg|thumb|right| 200px|alt=photograph of Dunvegan Castle on the Isle of Skye in the mist| Dunvegan castle on Isle of Skye]]looks like this:
For a more verbose HowTo see the Picture tutorial on Wikipedia.

How to purge cache
Include source code
Surround your code with <source lang=*>...</source>, where * is the language - one of:
actionscript, ada, apache, applescript, asm, asp, autoit, bash, blitzbasic, bnf, c, c_mac, caddcl, cadlisp, cfdg, cfm, cpp, cpp-qt, csharp, css, d, delphi, diff, div, dos, eiffel, fortran, freebasic, gml, groovy, html4strict, idl, ini, inno, io, java, java5, javascript, latex, lisp, lua, matlab, mirc, mpasm, mysql, nsis, objc, ocaml, ocaml-brief, oobas, oracle8, pascal, perl, php, php-brief, plsql, python, qbasic, rails, reg, robots, ruby, sas, scheme, sdlbasic, smalltalk, smarty, sql, tcl, text, thinbasic, tsql, vb, vbnet, vhdl, visualfoxpro, winbatch, xml, xpp, z80
Note: You also can (mis)use other language highlighting if your desired languages is not listed. E.g. for Overpass QL (examples there) code often "cpp" is used and it looks fine. For Overpass XML, of course, use "xml".
For example:
<source lang=perl> #-TEST-------------------------------------------------------------------------- our $help=0; my $coord; print "TEST\n\n"; </source>
is displayed as:
our $help=0;
my $coord;
print "TEST\n\n";

Sorry, but this is not a well-run classroom. Dolls in a waldorf classroom are for children to play with. Ditto all the other toys. Something is wrong.
Yes, you are right Deborah and I would try to do that first!
On the other hand if the teacher is a bit older and has been in the school a long time, I think they all know what is going on and am not so sure how cooperative they are going to be to make changes,...anyhow let's not try to paint the devil on the wall, definitely try to talk to somebody in the school, if not the teacher herself than somebody above her.
Sounds like she is emphasizing a beautiful, peaceful atmosphere over a live classroom with real children playing in it..
I have found that children that are over-stimulated with media or have had lots of intellectual awakening going on are often unable or unwilling to focus on simple activities, play with simple toys, or really enter a "zone" when listening to stories, etc. It is like they are so used to being hyper-stimulated that these things are just not enough for them.....it is hard for them to slow down and really focus and they do not seem to easily or willingly slip into the realm of fantasy.
They did introduce eurythmy. Teacher was all stressed out and resentful that morning because it interrupted the flow of her routine. Dd said she doesn't like it, and as I mentioned, she's very averse to conforming to group undertakings.
I'm surprised nobody else mentioned this yet but you posted "we do tons of teaching at home." I would be a little curious about what that means because if you are teaching reading or other sort of academics, perhaps your child is getting mixed messages about what school is about and has therefore come to the conclusion of being bored.
Waldorf is all about a seamless rhythm from school to home and I know my teacher has told me at least on one occasion that if the parents are doing something different at home, chances are the waldorf environment will not work for that family.
blessed, your daughter might not be at all stimulated by the Waldorf Kindergarten curriculum, if she is doing so many mental challenges at home, she is bored at school. Since you are doing so much work at home anyway, have you tried homeschooling her, or maybe join a coop if you are worried about the socialization part for her?

Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows Help to Launch "Green Bucks" Program
Posted on
April 13, 2013
Filed Under Green Tahoe
Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows have joined with the Tahoe Fund and the Truckee River Watershed Council to help launch the new Green Bucks program. Green Bucks is a dollar donation program designed to harness the passion of visitors and residents in order to help care for the region's extraordinary environment.
Squaw and other local businesses have committed to collecting dollar donations on room nights, season passes, lift tickets, golf rounds and other items to help improve the area's natural environment.
"In conjunction with our company's commitment to the environment, we have made two $25,000 donations to both the Truckee River Watershed Council and the Tahoe Fund, and we are asking guests to contribute one dollar on the purchase of lodging reservations or a season pass via the new Green Bucks program," said Andy Wirth, president and CEO of Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows.
Proceeds from Green Bucks support the Tahoe Fund, the Truckee River Watershed Council and other public and nonprofit organizations in the region. These organizations fund projects that will improve, enhance and restore watersheds, hiking and biking trails, and environmental stewardship programs.
"The organizations receiving the proceeds from the Green Bucks program are outstanding and impactful organizations, and the funds from this program will go directly to help preserve and restore the rivers, lakes and meadows in the region," continued Wirth. "It's our hope that our company's broad participation compels and induces other companies in the region to support the Tahoe Fund and the Truckee River Watershed Council through this new program."
Green Bucks will support:
- Miles of hiking, biking and ADA-accessible trails
- Access for swimming, kayaking, canoeing and stand-up paddle boarding
- Open spaces for wildlife habitat and scenic views
- Restoration of rivers, lakes, meadows, wetlands, forests
- Protection of fish and wildlife habitat
- Boating and fishing access
- Landscaping and trail re-alignment to prevent runoff
- Signage and interpretive displays to guide visitors
- Monitoring of water quality
"We are really excited about the Green Bucks program as it is one of the first programs to reach from Lake Tahoe all the way down the Truckee River," said Lisa Wallace, Executive Director of the Truckee River Watershed Council. "We are thankful to have Squaw Valley and Alpine Meadows as founding members, and for their help in leading the effort to actually develop the Green Bucks program and to secure broad participation from the business community. We hope to see many other businesses join in as well."
Green Bucks is a win-win for residents and visitors by creating a simple way for those who love the Lake Tahoe/Truckee area to help make it even better. With the support of visitors, residents and local business, Green Bucks will help raise money to restore and improve the environment and enhance recreational opportunities, ultimately helping to drive even more tourism and business to the local economy.
"We'd like to thank Squaw Valley for their early support of the Green Bucks program," said Amy Berry, CEO of the Tahoe Fund. "The program is a great and easy way for businesses to offer their customers a way to give back when they are here enjoying our incredible natural environment."
Similar "buck" programs are operating in places like Jackson Hole, Yosemite and regions similar to our own with exciting results. These programs have raised millions of dollars to support local initiatives. Local businesses can call (530) 550-8760 ext. 7 to sign up to participate in the Green Bucks program.

Scans email and instant message attachments. Firewall protection. Antivirus protection. URL advisor.
No parental controls.
Bottom Line
McAfee Internet Security 2014 for Mac brings antivirus and firewall protection along with a URL advisor to Apple computers.
Stereotypical Mac users aren't concerned with security, but Mac malware is real and Web threats don't care what kind of computer you're using. That's why there are products like McAfee internet Security 2014 for Mac ($79.99). This OS X application brings antivirus protection, along with safe Web browsing and firewall tools. We look forward to testing it soon.
//Compare Similar ProductsCompare
McAfee requires OS X 10.8 or later, 2GB of RAM, and 350MB of available disk space. It includes a free 30-day free trial. Interestingly, McAfee LiveSafe costs the same and protects many more devices.
Antivirus Protection
When installed, McAfee protects against viruses, Trojans, worms, bots, and rootkits. It's also designed to guard against malicious software that gathers personal information for cybercriminals.
McAfee's Active Protection tool automatically detects and quarantines malware in real time. The app can also remove infections from files without damaging file contents. In addition to traditional malware blocking, McAfee also detects software that is not authorized with Apple certificates.
Beyond simply scanning your computer files, McAfee also scans each and every file you download from the Web. This includes email attachments and files sent over iChat. Like many Mac antivirus apps, McAfee scans external drives. However, ESET Cyber Security has many more security features for attached USB devices and Panda Antivirus for Mac scans attached iOS devices for malware.
Web Protection
While malware is scary, Web-based attacks don't care a lick what operating system you're using. That's why McAfee includes tools to protect you while you surf the Web. The core of its protection is SiteAdvisor, a tool that ranks links on search engine results to let you know which are safe and which are risky.
Many Mac security apps, including Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac, Norton Internet Security 5 for Mac, and Trend Micro Antivirus for Mac, include similar URL advisor tools. But McAfee points out that their SiteAdvisor service also scans for potentially dangerous links in social media feeds as well. ESET can also scour your feeds for dangerous links, and goes further with a social networking tune-up tool to keep your private information locked down.
McAFee can be configured to automatically block dangerous sites, and it blocks known phishing sites by default. These malicious websites imitate known, trusted websites in an attempt to trick you into entering your personal information.
McAfee's Web protection tools require Safari 5.0 or later and Firefox 12 or later. Chrome users must look elsewhere.
Malware and Web threats are one thing, but firewall tools can completely control the flow of information to and from your Mac. With a properly configured firewall, attackers are kept out of your machine and any malware you may pick up will have a hard time communicating with its creator.
To protect your Mac from network attacks, McAfee includes its Netguard tool. When enabled, this prevents your Mac from communicating with suspicious servers and known botnets. You can also use Netguard to restrict which apps can communicate with the Internet and how your computer communicates with other computers on a local network. OS X also ships with firewall tools built-in. ESET Cyber Security offers similar protection for Macs. For more on firewalls, see our reviews and our roundup of the best free firewalls.
What's Missing
Concerned parents of young children and teenagers may want to filter potentially objectionable material online, and keep their children's personal information safe. Parental control tools allow parents to do just that, but McAfee does not include any in this product. Be sure to read our reviews of Parental Control and Monitoring software and our roundup of the best free porn filters.
Most Mac antivirus apps include Web protection tools, and many provide support for the popular Chrome browser. Chrome users, however, will find no protection from McAfee.
We look forward to fully testing McAfee Internet Security in the labs soon. For more on Mac antivirus products, be sure to check out our roundup.

Classes full for 2016/17
Classes are held in Killorglin, Co. Kerry
These classes are for chidren who are in 2nd class upwards.

2013: A year in celebrity babies
A look back at the celebrity babies born in 2013.
How do you measure a year?
In government changes? Natural disasters? Scandals?
2013 was certainly an eventful year all round, but we've chosen to look back at the best bits – aka the adorable little bundles that came straight out of the womb and into the headlines.
It was a big year in the celebrity baby world. I should know, I spent many an early morning or late night writing up a story on the latest breaking celebri-tot birth, which raises another question: why on earth can't they manage to give birth during regular working hours? SO inconsiderate!
I digress. Every baby is a beautiful addition to the world, but because we can't celebrate every baby born, we're focusing on the famous ones – and from the most anticipated royal birth of the decade to the most anticipated baby name of the decade (Kimye, you didn't disappoint!), celebrity wombs have had almost as much media attention in 2013 as Miley Cyrus's … tongue. Almost.
Have a look back at some of the celeb bubs born this year.
Celeb babies of 2013
North West
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West welcomed baby North West in June this year, five weeks earlier than her due date. Their choice of name had the bookies going mad, but almost everyone was surprised when it was revealed through a leaked birth certificate.
Prince George
THE most anticipated baby of the year, Prince George Alexander Louis may one day be our king. And what an adorable little future king he is, too!
Channing Tatum
Channing Tatum and his wife Jenna Dewan-Tatum welcomed beautiful baby Everly on May 31.
Fergie and Josh Duhamel
Fergie and Josh welcomed their baby boy, Axl Jack, on August 29.
Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez
Halle Berry and Olivier Martinez welcomed their son Maceo on October 5.
Holly Valance
Holly Valance and her husband Nick Candy welcomed baby Luka Violet Toni in November.
Jessica Simpson and Eric Johnson
Jessica Simpson gave birth to baby Ace Knute in June, her first son and second child with fiance Eric Johnson.
Kate Winslet
Kate Winslet gave birth to a baby boy on December 7, her first child with husband Ned Rocknroll, and her third child. Click here for more
Michael Buble
Michael Buble and his wife Luisana Lopilato welcomed baby Noah in August, with the ecstatic star tweeting the very first pic of his newborn son.
Rachael Finch
Rachael Finch and her husband, Michael Miziner, welcomed baby Violet in September.

|Jodi Arias looks down as Judge Sherry Stephens gives jury instructions.
Jodi Arias at first appeared disinterested in the proceedings, rarely looking up from her notebook or drawing pad to watch Juan Martinez demonstrate to the jury why they should return a verdict of guilty for the charge of first-degree murder against her. As he continued to explain how she premeditated Travis Alexander's murder, she began to cry with her face and nose turning red. Travis Alexander's family cried continually throughout the day.
There is no question the defense has their work cut out for them tomorrow morning as they present their closing arguments.

The eye-catching design of this card makes it superior to the university cards you find on other id web sites. It is simplistic yet has many features which make it highly authentic looking. The crest featured at the top left of the card adds a strong element of believability, especially when partnered with the 'id approved' logo in both the bottom right hand corner and on the card's reverse. Each card is also given a unique reference number to make it secure. On the back of the card the signature is printed directly by the machine. This makes for a slicker finish. The text on the reverse of the novelty id states conditions of the card set by the 'university'. Overall, this is an excellent card at a great price!

Such a realistic looking card you won't believe your eyes! Micro-text is printed in white onto a blue background to produce a striking base for the card. The globe adds an extra detail which looks superb and really makes the card stand out. The card field names are in English, French and Spanish adding to the authentic look of this International Identification. You are able to choose where you are studying and the start and end dates you want. The reverse of the card has the same design as the front but is interrupted by a signature box into which a signature is printed directly onto the card- a really outstanding ID!

What an authentic looking card! The name of this card alone sounds professional and believable and this is only enhanced by the card's brilliant design. The subtle details on the cards such as the fading green/greys used in the background make this card look really authentic. You can choose which university you want to be a member of. Also, a code is given at the bottom left of the card which is different for every order- no card can be exactly the same as yours!

This card really stands out from the rest. It is designed in hot pink making it really eye catching. The faded shadowy picture of two people in the background gives the card a really authentic look. As well as being able to choose to attend whichever college or university you want, you are given the freedom to set the start and end dates as you wish. The card boasts of its membership to the British Students Union- a highly realistic sounding organisation that makes the card even more believable.

The season is an introduction to some of Ireland's most exciting playwrights. It brings writers Nancy Harris and Elaine Murphy back to the Abbey Theatre as well as introducing three new voices; Darren Donohue, Neil Bristow and Eugene O'Hare.
Love in a Glass Jar and Ribbons – A Double Bill
The Short Play Season starts with a double bill of Love in a Glass Jar and Ribbons. Written by Nancy Harris (No Romance) and Elaine Murphy (Little Gem) respectively, the plays were commissioned for our short play reading series 20:Love in 2008 and The Fairer Sex in 2009. Now in 2013, they receive full productions on the Peacock stage, running from Tuesday 13 February until Saturday 23 February.
Love in a Glass Jar and Ribbons are directed by the up-and-coming theatre artist Oonagh Murphy, who marks her graduation from the Abbey Theatre Resident Assistant Director programme with this double bill.
The two plays, which deal with life, love and relationships in modern Ireland, will be a perfect opportunity to see the work of Nancy Harris and Elaine Murphy in under one hour.
For those wanting to see further work by Elaine Murphy, there will be an opportunity to do so later in the year with the world premiere of Shush, in June 2013 on the Abbey stage.
Following on from this Double Bill, for two evenings only, our short play season continues with our sixth annual short play reading series.
Since the short play readings series started in 2008, 22 talented playwrights have been commissioned by the Abbey Theatre to create new 20 minute plays for two actors.
This year's playwrights are Neil Bristow and Darren Donohue, both past participants in the Abbey Theatre's New Playwrights programme, and Eugene O'Hare. Taking inspiration from our upcoming production of King Lear, the three writers were invited to explore their ideas of Home.
Directed by Maeve Stone and Oonagh Murphy, Resident Assistant Directors at the Abbey Theatre, this is a must see for all those with an interest in new writing this February.

We are looking for a great theatre experience in Dublin for the nights of June 10, 11 2013. Shush looks good, but is anything else going to be in production on those dates? How far ahead should we book tickets?
Chris Ashley, the Artistic Director of La Jolla Playhouse (where I am on the board) says The Abbey Theatre is excellent!

Chick-fil-A and Breastfeeding – Again?!
Chick-fil-A is once again on the headlines; and yet again, about "breastfeeding."
This controversy dates way back 4 years ago when according to the Orlando Sentinel – the restaurant's manager suggested to a breastfeeding mother to cover up while in their play area. This means, there must be something to the restaurant's culture that a natural instinct such as breastfeeding be prohibited within their vicinity.
A couple of days ago, a Tennessee mother was approached for breastfeeding in the play area of a Chick-fil-A restaurant.
Question: Is public breastfeeding indecent? Obviously, many have their own opinions.
Okay, tell you what..
Breastfeeding is not porno, and it only becomes "indecent" if it's intentionally done in the middle of somewhere as if trying to attract public attention; and, and if the exposed breast is not used for appeasing a baby's hunger. Right?
On the other hand, breastfeeding is fine if done when really necessary or on the "side" of wherever you are – and not to disrupt passers-by. However, whether the mother partly covers her breast or not should depend on the comfort of the child.
So why is Chick-fil-A against mothers nursing in public?
It may be related to religious beliefs as Truett Cathy, Chick-fil-As chairman, is a devout Southern Baptist. Hmm… sometimes, Bible interpretations may be taken out of context. So, I'm sure he understands that he could be isolating his customers and possible customers with this kind of policy.

Cool stuff. It's great getting your kids going. Mine love it as well.
This is a discussion on Taught my Daughter to shoot today within the General Firearm Discussion forums, part of the Related Topics category; Never thought this day would happen. My Daughter is 8 1/2 years old and scared of most everything. Just two weeks ago, I came back ...
Never thought this day would happen. My Daughter is 8 1/2 years old and scared of most everything.
Just two weeks ago, I came back from shooting and she said she wanted to go some time. Guess a girl in her 2nd grade class goes with her father.
She has off school for spring break this week and thursday is shooting day. Got home from work this morning, loaded up the jeep then we headed to walmart. Picked her up some pink shooting glasses and some ear protection.
Got to the range, set the target.stand up about 10 feet away, then went to the bench and taught her about the 4 safety rules which she followed really well. We were the only ones in that range so that was nice. 50 yard pistol range.
Just to get her used to something, I had her start out with a little CO2 BB pistol. She did really well with it so we moved on to the .22lr, the exact same .22lr that my Uncle taught me how to shoot with when I was 10 years old, now I'm 37. 1961 Seneca Green Remington Nylon 66. Still works great. She liked shooting that better thn the BB pistol. The only problem was that the stock was too long. Told her we'd have to get her a .22 rifle that fits her.
Now I just have to wait for my other two kids to get older.

That's awesome! Good to teach your children gun safety while they are young so they don't develop bad habits :D

My hat's off to you AND your daughter...That's some very special bonding that will never be experienced by many. My Granddaughter will be 3 on June 17th. I'm taking her to the range for the first time and will begin aclimatizing her to little pops and big pops, the purpose of the ear protections and how it can keep the "pops" from being loud, and finally I too will let her shoot a BB pistol (with assistance of course)...Hopefully by the end of the summer I can have her on a .22........JMO
Sometimes in life you have to stand your ground. It's a hard lesson to learn and even most adults don't get it, but in the end only I can be responsible for my life. If faced with any type of adversity, only I can overcome it. Waiting for someone else to take responsibility is a long fruitless wait.
My daughter is seven. She shoots well. She told me she wants to out shoot the boys.
My kids are grown, but we still go shoot! Life long quality time!

Some of my fondest memories are of learning to shoot with my dad. I learned on a pellet rifle in our basement as well as the occasional bb gun in cub scouts and once I got the fundamentals and the safety rules down I got to move up to the .22 at the real range. I still have that pellet rifle and shoot it occasionally.
Yea baby, nothing like teaching our young how to shoot.
I have taught mine and now have 2 grandkids 6 months and almost 3 yrs, I know I have to wait a bit longer, but I hope to have them shooting

Bravo Zulu Daddy! Memories that BOTH of ya'll withh have for a lifetime!
Watch for the Ruger 10/22 to go on sale. I see one in your future. Then you can teach her mag changes. both my kids ( now in HS ) learned to shoot on my 10/22.
My daughter is almost 9 and begs me to take her shooting. She was shooting her .22 crickett when she was 7, and recently shot my .223 for her first time. When we go she always dresses in as much pink as possible, (including the pink shooting glasses) so it matches the pink stock on the Crickett.
Daddy's little girls - they will always will be daddy's little girls even when they grow up! We need to teach them right from the start, including how to shoot safely!
"Gun Free Zones" is where only criminals carry guns.
Great story.. I started my daughter out last year when she was also 8. (she's 9 now) She has not moved beyond shooting the Walther P22, though. The larger calibers scare her because of the noise. I was thinking about picking up that Ruger SR22 pistol, though. I think she'd like that better and it seems more reliable from what I've heard.

Can anyone give me a decent breakdown to go by? Also, will AA fix/reinforce anything the find to be a possible issue before installing?
First off...Congrats! You are going to love it. I am in love with my setup on my cab running the full AA exhaust system. Damn does she scream.
The best way to handle it is either get MaxPSI to install it in NJ (as I read your in NY) or take it direct to AA and let Viral and Scrappy handle it for you. It would be best to have the car there for tuning adjustments that may be needed IMO.
My work is an AA dealer and installer. We have actually sent 2 of our euro E36 M M powered cars to have custom kits done by them. I have never felt more comfortable leaving cars somewhere, and not even my own family drives my cars.
AA can look over and address any issues you may have while it is there, have you seen the facility? Top notch.
Viral arranged transportation from our door to theirs and back in a breeze.
As far as what else to do:
Suspension check over (Who wants all that power and worn suspension?)
Brake check over (BBK not needed but great upgrade or even to CSL)
If you are like me, make sure you have a windscreen because top speed runs with the top down is fun! 300km/h happens real fast from 120km/h

Research suggests that targeted stimulation of the brain's prefrontal cortex is a promising treatment for addiction.
Could drug addiction treatment of the future be as simple as an on/off switch in the brain? A study in rats has found that stimulating a key part of the brain reduces compulsive cocaine-seeking and suggests the possibility of changing addictive behavior generally. The study, published in Nature, was conducted by scientists at the Intramural Research Program of the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA), part of the National Institutes of Health, and the University of California, San Francisco.
"This exciting study offers a new direction of research for the treatment of cocaine and possibly other addictions," said NIDA Director Dr. Nora D. Volkow. "We already knew, mainly from human brain imaging studies, that deficits in the prefrontal cortex are involved in drug addiction. Now that we have learned how fundamental these deficits are, we feel more confident than ever about the therapeutic promise of targeting that part of the brain."
Compulsive drug-taking, despite negative health and social consequences, has been the most difficult challenge in human drug addiction. NIDA researchers used an animal model of cocaine addiction, in which some rats exhibited addictive behavior by pushing levers to get cocaine even when followed by a mild electric shock to the foot. Other rats did not exhibit addictive responses.

Carlos the Jackal back in court over 1980s bombs
By Alexandria Sage
PARIS (Reuters) - Gray hair and a paunch have replaced the beret, leather jacket and dark glasses but Carlos the Jackal's defiance remains intact before he stands trial in France for a series of bombings in the 1980s.
The international revolutionary from Venezuela, born Ilich Ramirez Sanchez, built a career as one of the world's best known guerrillas after a hostage-taking of OPEC oil ministers in the name of the Palestinian struggle in 1975.
Since his capture and sentencing nearly two decades ago, the Jackal has been resident of a French prison.
On Monday, Ramirez, already condemned to life in jail, will face a three-judge terrorism panel to answer charges he was behind four urban bombings in France that killed 11 people and wounded nearly 200 in the early 1980s.
"I am really in a combative mood," Ramirez, 62, told Europe 1 radio last month. "I'm not fearful by nature...My character is suited to this kind of combat."
The Marxist with a Che Guevara beret became the face of 1970s and 80s anti-imperialism, his taste for women and alcohol adding to his revolutionary mystique.
"He was the symbol of international leftist terrorism," said Francois-Bernard Huyghe, a terrorism expert at the Institute of International and Strategic Relations, IRIS, in Paris. "One day it could be in the service of the Palestinian cause, the next day he could put bombs in French trains. He was a kind of star."
Ramirez's got his nickname after a reporter saw a copy of Frederick Forsyth's "The Day of the Jackal" at his flat and mistakenly assumed it to be his. Continued...

Pressure Washer repair
I have a PW with a Honda GC190 engine. I took the top half apart (without taking digital pictures - mistake) and put everything back together. The PW only runs now with the choke engaged and it runs rough. I am not sure if I put the throttle spring and other throttle related pieces back correctly.
Does anyone have this model engine on a PW or something else that maybe they could take a pic of the throttle or perhaps simply clue me in on what I need to troubleshoot here?
Tripower, while I realize that this not a link to a schematic or teardown diagram, it does show that the cost of a brand new carburetor for a GC190 is not that much, that is, depending upon the particular ID number of the one that's on there now.
Short of finding a Honda shop manual on-line for free parousal or buying one, this may be a last resort to getting your power washer back up and running reasonably inexpensively.
Good luck with your quest! :thumbsup:
You need a whole new PW
carb, in fact I think you need a whole new machine. These units are
SOOO simple that if you need to take photos to remember how
to reassemble it than a repair manual will just get you deeper into the
doo-doo. You should just realize some people should just not be
aloud to own tools. It is people like you that keep us professional
repair people in business and charging $80.00/hr in labor.
$50.00/hr to repair and $30.00/hr to undo the home owner muck-ups.
A screw driver is held by the round plastic thingy and the long metal
pointy thing is what is inserted into the screw. Next weeks lesson
will be how to to hold a hammer.
Just noticed your user name. Is it possible you know some of what you may or may not know from using google? You know, if you don't know something, is it possible you have to google it or actually ask someone else?
Tripower go to Sears website and check their parts diagram section. Can be a very helpful site with diagrams of many different things for appliances to small engines whether they stock them or not. You may be able to find the diagram for the whole engine including the governor spring configuration, carb diaphram, etc..
I did know a nother site that had many diagrams. It was Tauton or something like that. Also do a search for Small engine diagrams in your search bar, or google it. There should be free pics out there.
LOL. Sounds like DIYChatroom is looking to put these professionals out of business. Which can only be a good thing, as I do not need to pay some guy $80 per hour for a machine that cost $200-300. By the way it just needed some new intake gaskets. The machine works great now. Thanks for all the "help".
Glad you didn't have to pay $80 or more for the gaskets!
Those who can do
Maybe the op is a school teacher?
Ok, I'll buy that.How does the old saying go. Those who can't teach......
No the OP is someone who isn't dumb enough to pay $80 an hour to fix a lawn mower or power washer that cost $200. How many VCR repairman do you see these days. Oh, and catch the name of the forum D I Y!
No he's super brite
the same problem pops up that would cost another $80.00 to fix he can just repurchase again and again.That's the most cost effective way.
That's why I have never had to buy a lawn mower I just pick them up
off the curb of this genius. He buys it for $200.00 uses it a year or two
until the old gas he leaves in it over winter varnishes up the carb and he doesn't want to shell out the $80.00 to clean it out. I do it for free and use for 5 or 6 years until I find another year or two old one on the curb to replace it. It's funny you mention a VCR repair man because I have used him to fix my $600.00 top of the line Mitsubishi and leave the $49.00 WallyMart specials for my cheapo disposable crapo friend the "diyer".

The NavJacket has provided us with an opportunity to leverage our vast expertise in GPS and mobile technology, and to apply it in a number of ways that have never been undertaken before. We see this as a great opportunity to strengthen what is still a young brand – MyWay – alongside one of the world's leading brands."
The NavJacket is in stores now! To find out more about this next generation product and to locate your nearest NavJacket retailer, simply navigate your way to: www.navjacket.com.

Service Entrance Question
So my boss has a ranch house that has increased in size over the years. My question is about the way the power company ran power from the transformer to the meter pole. There is a total of 6 wires running from the transformer to the meter pole. 2 for one leg, 2 for another, and 2 for the neutral. I'm not sure of the gauge but my guess is 8AWG. Is this a legal run or was the power company too lazy to run them correctly, so they just added on to the existing wires to make a heavier gauge? I have serious doubts about this setup, what is one run were to weakin and burn up? Then all the power must flow through the singal remaining wire which could then burn up as well. Any input would be great.
parallel runs...we use them all the time in a commercial setting. i doubt the wires are number 8's though i'd be interested in finding out for sure. I don't know if the same rules apply for residential dwellings and parallel runs though.
Power companies are not governed by the NEC.
I know NEC doesnt over see power companies doings, but there has got to be someone who keeps an eye on their methods and practice. Any Ideas?
Why do you think there is something inherently wrong with the installation? As stated above it's done all the time for higher amperage installations. What if they were larger single conductors and one was lost ? There would still be a problem. What is your concern?
well one set of wires is obviously much older than the other, it shows. Meaning the older one is more fatigued. What if it reaches the point where it doesn't work anymore? the remaining smaller wire is then required to carry a much heavier load. He has a very large house and two very large barns, each 200 amp setups all dependant on this parrallel run. Not to mention the two large water well pumps up the hill.
Post some photos.
most likely there was a 200A service and a second was added later on...hence the two seperate runs and the age difference in the utility side feeds...as brric says there's nothing to worry about.
just to add most probaly already know but they can also get away with such small wires because they are free air conductors which hold higher amp vaule as stated in the nec
number 8's still are nowhere near big enough to take on 200A(parallel run)....depending on distance to service from pole and not having my code book infront of me i'd wager at roughly a #2 needed for a 200A feed free air. with a set of 2/0 copper joined to them at the mast head(parallel copper run as well). I have a feeling that might be wrong....i'm sure someone will set me straight though :laughing:.
ok. well it will a week or two before i can get the gauge, i'm currently away. I'm pretty interested in knowing the exact gauge of the parallel runs too because the overhead wires run from the meter to the barns are 8 gauge aluminum. Those spand about a hundred feet each.

I like Federal. I've heard bad things about Remington.-T.
I've had 2 Remington bulk pack rounds detonate on me. I'm 100% federal for anything semi - auto.
I don't THINK I'll ever have to face down routers in the streets.
I should hope not. Mobs of rogue woodworking tools would suck to repel.
The best overall IME, but never found in bulk AFAIK is the CCI Velocitor. I had results similar to this http://milesfortis.us/mcump/mc09.htm a few years back when all I took was every kind of 22 ammo I could get my hands on and a dozen or so different 22 firearms out for a day of testing. The velocitor round was one of my top 3 picks in every firearm tested in both accuracy and ballistics departments. Consistent chrono numbers, and accuracy out of nearly every firearm I tried was on par with the above link.
I don't always buy bulk .22*, but when I do, I prefer CCI or Federal...
Another vote for Federal Automatch here. Comes in packs of 325. Nice clean reliable ammo.

I guess I understand that you want to be > able to use ext3 and ext2 in the same kernel, but why not make it a > mount option, since the journal code is separate in the kernel anyway? The ext3 code is quite different from the ext2 code in many places. The journaling itself is done in a separate layer but ext2 had to be changed quite significantly to allow it to use that journaling code. The changes are significant enough that in order to prevent any possibility of destabilising the existing ext2 filesystem, it really does make sense to keep ext3 separate. Cheers, Stephen

borg warner t-10 or super t-10
I bought a borg warner t-10 and as I was looking up info on the thing I found a site that said all t-10s had cast cases and the supers had aluminum cases. the thing I dont get is the supers were not a stock tranny according to this site and I dont think I have a aftermarket unit, what is the deal with these. Also where are the letter codes on them to indicate gear ratios? at http://www.corral.net/20anngt/trans.htm they have all the codes listed but i have a few letters that could be the code. as far as markings go on this one I found 13-04-066-903 above reverse, E.2.77 Q7 13-04-097-091 above the forward gear selectors and in the case between forward and reverse WF1072 on the opposite side it has 27N228195 5,18,77 130465903 W.G.DIV FPC2 it has 26 splines on the input and 32 on the output. If any one knows what any of this means please give me a hand in figuring this out. thanks in advance.
I have all 3,yes 3 of them.I have the super the aluminum and the richmond road race copy with magnesium housing.The super is a cast iron housing and the regular is aluminum.When i rebuilt mine the parts list was near identical,bearing,gaskets. etc...I know the aluminum ones came in 79 camaros and stuff of that era.The cast ones i would just be guessing(before my time).The magnesiun one i have is a aftermarket one that was in a indy car(very strong and 4sale).The road race ones don't have a speedo.I believe i have also seen richmond make copys of the regular t-10s,easy way to tell is that they say richmond on the housing not borg warner
The cast Super T-10 came out in about 1970, the first 500 or so had the same input and tailshaft as the early Muncies, then they were changed to fine spline input and the 400 type tailshaft. I had one of the first production transmissions, a direct bolt in replacement for the Muncie that was in the car, only difference was the shifter arms.

*Master's degree offered as part of the PhD program only.
*Master's degree offered as part of the PhD program only.
Inquiries regarding admission to graduate programs should be addressed to the graduate department in which the applicant wishes to study (see the University of Colorado Boulder Directory for campus addresses or see www.colorado.edu).
Concurrent BS/MS and BA/MA degree programs are offered in several departments at CU-Boulder. These programs allow a student to receive both a bachelor's and master's degree in five years of study without compromising the academic integrity of either degree.
Currently approved concurrent degree programs in arts and sciences include:
Currently approved concurrent degree programs in business include:
These concurrent degree programs are open only to highly qualified CU-Boulder undergraduates. Students are formally admitted at the end of their sophomore year or the beginning of their junior year. They are admitted through the admission procedure of their department and do not go through the normal process of admission to Graduate School. When students have completed the program requirements, they receive both a bachelor's and a master's degree simultaneously. Students wishing to continue studying toward a doctorate must formally apply for admission to the Graduate School.
Students interested in a concurrent bachelor's/master's program should inquire in the department.
In an environment where there is a rapidly increasing desire for interdisciplinary and professional skills, receiving two master's degrees in complementary fields can be a real asset. Contact the individual departments for details.

Ohlone board zeros in on frontage plans
Group trying to decide what should be built on property
By Todd R. Brown, Staff Writer.
Thursday, September 6, 2007—Reprinted from Inside Bay Area.Fremont— Although the Ohlone College board recently decided to put out a request for development proposals for its frontage property, several trustees said the language was too nebulous.
This week the group held a special meeting to pinpoint just how the members hope the land along Mission Boulevard will be transformed into a mixed-use gateway to the hillside campus.
Some called for student and faculty apartments, while others said office space should be noted in the request. The group eventually agreed that the plan could benefit from a little more guidance for developers.
"It's going to be there for decades to come," Trustee Trisha Tahmasbi said. "The bottom line should not always be profit. A thousand Jiffy Lubes, a Hooters and a Wal-Mart might be a great investment but are not in the long-term interest of the college."
Tahmasbi urged that the proposal include student residences, which could trim some income from the project but would foster on-campus camaraderie and perpetuate the popularity of the now-hot ticket to a university education.
Yet college President Doug Treadway said profit is precisely the motive for building out the roughly 19-acre area to pay for improvements to the commuter school's aging infrastructure, including its athletic fields.
"This surplus property is for revenue," he said, noting that the board has honed the plan through years of discussing Ohlone's future financial needs.
Board President Nick Nardolillo said the request was initially left vague so developers would have the latitude to include retail, housing or office space, or any combination of the three.
"I don't want to stifle their expertise," he said.
Student Trustee Ken Steadman supported the campus housing idea, noting: "When there are students on campus, the culture flourishes. There's a sense of permanence. It'll do nothing but bring more students to Ohlone College."
He said students are trying to organize a battle of the bands and taking other initiatives to bring a little joy to the everyday Ohlone experience, while the college's high transfer rate to University of California, Berkeley, is a testament to its academic reputation.
In the past few years, 42 percent of Ohlone applicants got in, according to the college's Web site.
Trustee Bill McMillin said while the office market has cooled off lately, the proposal should at least mention commercial space so developers have the option down the road.
"A multistory office complex could bring in more revenue than one-story retail," he said.
The short notice of the special meeting, which was announced late lastweek, irked some trustees, including Bob Brunton, who could not make it to the Tuesday gathering but sent comments by letter. Newer members Tahmasbi and Rich Watters said they juggled their schedules to be there.
On the other hand, Garrett Yee, who joined the board about four years ago, said he once attended 10 meetings in a single month.
"We are here to serve the college, not at our convenience. And sometimes we forget that," he said. "You have a tough job coming in and filling in on a process that has been going on for years."
Nardolillo, who convened the meeting, said this time of year is particularly challenging for him because of his Livermore winery, yet he decided the meeting took priority.
"I'm in the middle of harvest," he said. "We go 24/7 when the grapes come in."
The group, minus Brunton and Trustee John Weed, who owns property nearby and excused himself to avoid a possible conflict of interest, agreed to add a non-binding list of preferences for the property. They include building "an upscale grocery store, bookstore, deli, coffee shop, music and electronic stores," and stressing that retail parking should dovetail with the college's plans to add parking.

Initial thoughts on your first game as a Tar Heel?
"To finally play a game that counts in a Carolina uniform, obviously it went up and down for us. A lot of things we worked on translated to the game and that was good for us."
What were some of the ups?
"Getting out on the break a little bit, when we actually rebounded and got out in transition quickly. Obviously some of the downs were we turned the ball over a lot and we gave up some second chance points early in the second half. But we knew they were going to come out and give us a challenge but I thought we did a good job overall translating the stuff we worked on in practice into the game."
Personally, how do you judge whether you thought you did a good job?
"Obviously I'm a little disappointed with turning the ball over, but that was a team thing also and we need to work on that. But I had my moments too, made some good passes to guys who got fouled or didn't finish the layup. I think I can build on this. Got the first game jitters out of the way and I think I did all right, but there is definitely a lot of room to improve"
Coach Williams has said you're the guy at point guard for a while now. Does that give you confidence where you think you can ease into this and not feel too much pressure?
"Yeah, he's given me a lot of confidence and I think the guys are starting to have a little bit of confidence in me - that's good for me and helps me just focus on my game and not worry about other things. We also have guys like Luke Davis and Dexter who can play the '1' so it's not just on me to do everything - we have a really solid backcourt."
Were you able to get those first game jitters out of the way early?
"When you see all those fans out there, you start to get a little nervous but after the first few trips up and down - you make a good play and start to break a sweat - they start to go away and you just focus in on the game.
How difficult was the zone defense? Coach Williams said you practiced against it but it's hard to replicate it.
"We did practice for it a lot and knew they zone was unique in that they spread it out wide to take away a lot of passing angles. We practiced for it a lot but struggled making good passes in the game. Obviously it's good to see that early in the season so we can go back and correct it."
We found out last month at Media Day that you were going to be the starting point guard. When did you find it?
"Coach always said you just have to earn your minutes at practice and every day he puts a practice plan up with the lineups. He did put a lot of trust and confidence in putting me in the starting lineup and I think I've handled it pretty well so far ... In the summer he made me earn my minutes and I was the third string point guard."
Did he never tell you before Media Day that you'd earned the spot?
"He never said any of that."
So you found out when we did?
"Pretty much. Essentially, yeah."
Today did you have any rituals? What's the pre-game routine for you.
"I'm still working on finding a set routine just because things are so different here than in high school. We eat at a scheduled time, there's a certain amount of down time, stuff like that. After our pre-game meal I came in here to relax and hang out with the guys a little bit, watched part of the JV game, and then go out and shoot around for a bit and start to get myself mentally prepared when it gets closer to time to meet up with Coach."
