Clean Water Services presents The Stream Care Guide a primer for streamside property owners Learn how to enhance your property and protect your stream. Wherever there's water, there's Clean Water. 1 Congratulations! You are privileged to live near a stream and to enjoy the scenery, sounds, smells and feel of nature. No wonder streamside owners are passionate about the health of our local streams and the Tualatin River, as surveys have shown. You might already know that water quality has improved in the Tualatin Basin, even as new challenges arise. All watershed residents should care for our precious water resources, but people who have streams on their property have a greater responsibility than others. Clean Water Services is a water resources utility dedicated to protecting the health of the Tualatin River Watershed. We created this guide especially to help streamside property owners make stream-friendly choices for home and yard care. By taking a few simple steps, you can protect both the eco- logical and economic values of your streamside property.

Like most rivers, the Tualatin and its tributaries suffered until we stopped using them as sewers. Since 1970, our community has invested hundreds of millions of dollars to protect and improve water quality in the Tualatin River Watershed. Clean Water Services is a water resources management utility for urban Washington County. We operate world-class wastewater treatment facilities that meet the nation's highest water quality standards. And, we manage surface water and stormwater runoff in conjunction with our member cities and Washington County, protecting local streams and wetlands. As a leader in water supply planning, we also help ensure water needs are met. Thanks to these efforts, the Tualatin River is healthier today than it has been in generations. Did you know? • The Tualatin River meanders 80 miles along a flat river valley. • In one 24-mile stretch the river drops only 12 inches. • A watershed is the area of land that catches rain and snowmelt and drains it into a given body of water. • Tualatin River Watershed is 712 square miles. • Major tributaries: Gales Creek, Dairy Creek, Rock Creek, Fanno Creek. • Much of the Tualatin River's summer flow is cleaned effluent from Clean Water Services' wastewater treatment facilities and releases from Hagg Lake and Barney Reservoir. • The Tualatin River's only source of water is rainfall because the surrounding hills are too low to accumulate a snow pack. 4 Rain in the drain: In Washington County, storm drains lead to the nearest creek or wetland. Only rain belongs in the drain. 5 Get wise about water pollution These days, the major threat to water quality is pollution from people's day to day activities—road dirt, soap, fertilizer, pet waste, pesticides, erosion, etc. Simple changes in home, yard and auto care really count. When it rains, stormwater runoff from buildings, pavement and other imper- vious surfaces carries pollutants to the nearest wetland, pond, stream or other waterway. Think of stormwater flowing over streets, roofs, lawns and parking lots, and then imagine the oil, sediment, bacteria, grease and chemicals it carries. Newer developments are required to provide treatment to remove pollutants from stormwater, usually by filtration through a swale. Neighborhoods and busi- nesses built before these regulations took effect in 1992 have little or no stormwa- ter treatment. Although runoff from the built environment is unavoidable, we can all work together to reduce the amount of pollution that is washed into our streams. Many pollutants come from everyday activities that you may do on a regular basis.

Try these tips to a stream-friendly lifestyle. Get less toxic For starters, try to reduce the amount of hazardous ma- terials in and around your home. Buy only the chemicals you can use or share with a neighbor. Try alternatives to toxic household products. Read product labels before you buy, and then choose the least hazardous. Heed label warn- ings. Store toxic products safely away from contact with water. Dispose of leftovers and the container according to package instructions. Clear out old paint, pool chemicals, pesticide, household cleaners and other toxic materials that are unsafe for chil- dren, pets and the environment. For information on less toxic home and garden products, or how to dispose of toxic waste once and for all, see Metro's website at www.metro-region.org or call (503) 234-3000. Get natural Think about children, pets and wildlife before using pesticides and fertilizers on the lawn. Excessive pesticide use may pollute streams, eliminate nat- ural predators, encourage resistance to pesticides, and kill beneficial insects, earthworms and other organisms. Learn about and use non-toxic approaches to reduce reliance on harmful chemicals and fertilizers. Consider reducing the size of your lawn and landscaping with native plants instead. You can have a healthier lawn naturally if you: • Mow lawn to three inches for strong roots, fewer weeds and less evaporation. • Leave short grass clippings on the lawn as natural fertilizer. • Pull weeds by hand. • Aerate lawn every four years. • Test soil pH and nutrient levels every three years or before applying fertilizer. • Use a push mower. Gas mowers can pollute as much as a car. You'll cut noise, save money and get more exercise. 8 9 If you must use fertilizers and pesticides, please: • Follow product directions carefully. • Do not apply if rain is expected within 24 hours. • Choose fertilizer that does not contain heavy metals (arsenic, cadmium, mercury, lead, nickel), as many do. Check www.oda.state.or.us/fertilizer for fertilizer content. See the Natural Gardening Guide and other helpful infor- mation at www.metro-region.org Use the Native Plant Finder at www.cleanwaterservices.org/ gonative to choose plants appropriate for your site. Get stingy—conserve water, time and money In hot summer months some house- holds put nearly half their water on the lawn. Over-watering is a common mistake that wastes precious water, money, time and effort. It also encourages shallow root growth, promotes weeds, and washes essential nutrients from the soil. To do it right: • Water lawns one inch or less per week. • Set an empty can under the sprinkler and time how long it takes to fill one inch; that's how long you'll need to water each time. • Water early in the morning/night to avoid evaporation and sunburned leaves. Reduce the size of or eliminate your lawn and plant native plants. Get soft—reduce impervious areas Natural landscapes absorb rain slowly. The built environment's hard surfaces, roofs and paving tend to speed and increase the volume of runoff. One solu- tion is porous paving which allows soil to absorb rain, replenishing groundwater and providing more natural and consistent stream flows through the year. Plants and soil naturally filter pollution out of runoff. To reduce impervious surfaces on your property, consider these options: • Install gravel trenches along sidewalks and driveways to collect rainwater. • Instead of pavement, use bricks or blocks set in sand, gravel, or wood chips. • Point downspouts away from paved areas. Use a rain barrel to collect the water, then use it to water your garden or lawn. For information about pervious pavement, see the Slow the Flow booklet at www.cleanwaterservices.org. 10 11 Get gentle on roofs Chemicals that kill roof moss and lichen often contain copper, zinc and iron sulfate that may wash into waterways. Use alternatives to chemical treatment to help protect our water resources. For example, keep your roof free of leaves and debris that hold moisture and promote damage and fungal growth. Consider non-organic roofing materials that resist moss growth. Roof treatment: Have you thought about where the moss, chemicals and debris go? In urban Washington County, rain drains carry water to the nearest wetland or creek. If treatment is needed, use less toxic products in minimal concentrations as recommended on the product label. Treat roofs only in dry weather to allow the treatment to soak into the roof. When applying liquid treatments, direct the downspout to soil. After treatment, monitor the runoff. Reconnect downspouts after at least three rainfalls, or when there is no visible chemical residue or sheen. If you hire a roof treatment professional, ask what they use and how they man- age runoff. Get smart with suds Where does the soap, grease and dirt go? Pressure washing your home, deck, sidewalk, drive- way and vehicles can wash pollutants into storm drains and ditches that lead to waterways. Here are stream friendly tips: • Sweep sidewalks and driveways, and put the debris in the garbage. • Use automatic car washes that recycle the water and properly dispose of detergents. • If you hand wash your car or boat, park it on grass so pollutants filter through the soil. • If you pressure wash, plan to keep paint flakes, grease, and other pollutants from washing into storm drains, ditches or waterways. Collect and properly dispose of these pollutants, especially outdoor paint that might contain lead that is poisonous to plants, animals and children. • If you pressure wash, direct the runoff toward grassy or planted areas. • Try using water pressure alone to remove dirt and grime. If you must use a pressure washing cleaner, try this gentler solution: 2 cups mild laundry detergent, 1/2 cup vinegar and 1/4 cup lemon juice. 12 Tualatin River 13 Get a grip on pets Pets and livestock trample streambanks, kill the plants and create harmful erosion. Animal waste contains bacteria and parasitic organisms that can infect people and animals that drink or touch the water. Never place fencing across a stream. • Pick up after your pet. Put the poop in the garbage. • Take the Canines for Clean Water pledge at www.cleanwaterservices.org/canines. Get out! Organic stuff is bad? Oh, yeah. Even "natural" materials pollute the water by adding excess nutrients. As organic matter decom- poses under water, it uses oxygen that fish and other water creatures need to survive. Keep grass clippings, leaves and litter away from streams and ditches. In addition to polluting the water, yard debris that washes into storm drains and culverts may cause flooding. Compost yard debris and kitchen scraps, leaves, grass clippings and other yard wastes into organic fertilizer. For details, go to www.metro-region.org. Get your motor running Well-maintained vehicles are less likely to pollute waterways with oil, antifreeze, brake pad and tire wear. • Regularly maintain your vehicle and repair leaks. • Never dump car fluids into a storm drain, ditch or onto the ground. • Properly dispose or recycle motor oil, antifreeze, paint and other toxic materials. Call Metro at (503) 234-3000 for disposal advice and options.

A stream or ripar- ian buffer is the vegetation along a stream. Natural, undisturbed streams are lined with a community of native plants that shade and stabilize the streambanks. But for many streamside properties in the Tualatin River Watershed, mowed lawn and invasive or exotic plants line the stream banks instead of a healthy buffer. While grass may be pretty, its shallow roots can't hold soil to prevent erosion. "Create a healthy buffer of native plants along your stream or wetland to protect your property and water quality." A healthy riparian buffer offers many environmental, social and economic benefits, including: • Protects property from bank erosion; native plant roots stabilize the banks, trees and stumps slow water velocity • Attracts wildlife; provides habitat, food and cover while connecting wildlife corridors • Enhances enjoyment by reducing traffic noise and providing a cool, shady place for picnics and bird watching • Saves time spent mowing and maintaining lawn • Saves money spent on fertilizers and pesticides • Avoids costs of repairing eroded streambanks (engineering design, permits, bank stabilization, etc.) • Protects the water supply, filters pollutants and sediment, absorbs water to replenish the water table Clean Water Services partners with others to enhance streams and wetlands throughout the Tualatin River Watershed. Visit www.cleanwaterservices.org for more information. 16 17 Get started on your healthy stream buffer Step 1 - Identify Your Buffer Area A healthy buffer will take some time and work, but once it's established it requires only occasional maintenance. The buffer begins at the streambank and, depending on the site, is 25 to 75 feet wide. Study your yard and visualize the buffer area, considering steep slopes, yard size, property lines, utili- ties, sensitive habitat and features you wish to preserve. Measure the buffer area to be planted. To measure the width, stand at the top of the streambank and walk to the outer edge of your future buffer. Next, measure the length, ideally the entire length of stream on your property. Length x Width = Area in square feet to be planted. Step 2 - Create Your Planting Plan An effective buffer will have enough plants to hold soil, filter pollutants and provide shade. Calculate plant needs Square footage x 0.01 = Number of trees Square footage x 0.05 = Number of shrubs Identify plant species: Select plants appropriate for the site, considering the soil moisture, sunlight and the appearance you desire. Native plants require less water than non-native plants and do not need fertilizer or pesticides. Birds and wildlife prefer native plants for their habitat. Many attractive native plants will grow well in your buffer. Follow these tips in choosing your plants: Use the Native Plant Finder at www.cleanwaterservices.org/gonative • Look for native plants growing nearby to know what is best adapted to your area. • Diverse plants ward off pests and diseases and provide habitat diversity. • Be aware of soil drainage and choose plants suited to dry or wet conditions. • Place plants with similar watering needs together. 18 19 Sample planting and care schedule September - November Prep site January - April Plant site May - August Water, weed as needed Step 3 - Prepare Site for Planting Remove invasive, non-native plants from the site by cutting and pulling. For advice, go to www.cleanwaterservices.org. Replant areas that have been cleared with native grass seed before invasive species take over again. Identify and remove invasive species The plants listed below are just a few that should be removed from riparian and wetland areas. Many of these species can be controlled by regular cutting, mowing, or pulling before seeds set. In some cases, successful control may require herbicides by licensed applicators. For information, see www.cleanwaterservices.org. To remove these plants: Pull the entire plant and roots out of the ground. Dispose of where seeds and roots cannot re-establish. Purple Loosestrife English Ivy Lythrum salicaria Hedera helix Himalayan Blackberry Reed Canary Grass Rubus armenicus Phalaris arundinacea 20 21 For the following species, you can also mow and cover with weed barrier cloth: Canada Thistle Bindweed Common Teasel Cirsium arvense Convovulus arvensis Dipsacus sylvestris Noxious Weeds If you spot Japanese Knotweed, Giant Knotweed or Garlic Mustard, please report them to Clean Water Services. These species are so invasive that regional eradication resources may be available. Japanese Knotweed Giant Knotweed Garlic Mustard Polygonum cuspidatum Polygonum sachalinense Allaria petiolata Tools checklist You will need these tools and equipment: Gloves Pruning Shears Wheelbarrow Shovel Pitchfork Buckets Research nurseries and plant availability A current list of nurseries that sell native plants is posted at www.cleanwaterservices.org. If possible, choose plants grown from local seeds adapted to local conditions. You may have access to local plants that you can take cutting from or transplant. For example, willow cuttings quickly stabilize streambanks. 22 23 Step 4 - Plant Your Site You probably know what to do with potted plants, so here are simple tips for bare root and pole cuttings. Native willows are excellent for pole cuttings, and you can make your own if you have permission to cut them. Be sure to plant when soil is moist and easy to dig. The hole must be deep enough for roots to spread. Bare root plants Push shovel straight in soil. Pull back shovel Pull loose soil up side of hole. and return. Place plant in hole. Gently press hole shut. 24 25 Pole Cuttings Find native willows with branches ½ to 1 inch in diameter at the base. Insert willow cuttings 2/3 of way into wet ground Watch your willows grow and flourish. and water thoroughly. Mulch and watering Apply up to 5 gallons of mulch, compost or grass clippings around each plant to suppress weeds and hold moisture. Water during dry weather until plants are established. Water only as much as the ground can absorb. Step 5 - Maintain the buffer Congratulations, you now have a riparian buffer with beautiful native plants! To ensure the successful establishment of your plants, inspect regularly during the first few years. Native trees and shrubs do not need pruning, but grasses and other weeds may be cut or pulled to reduce competition for moisture and sunlight. Get Legal—need a permit? If you plan any of the activities listed below, please contact the city or county where you live to find out what type of permit you will need. • Modify a river, stream, creek, or wetland • Grade, clear, excavate, or any activity that may cause soil erosion • Build a permanent structure or home addition • Develop property • Construct, modify or connect to the public sanitary and surface water management systems 26 27 Common Buffer Problems and Solutions Problem Solution Leaf litter, fallen branches Leave on the ground for beneficial insects Disease Remove plants; dispose to prevent spread to healthy plants Pests Remove by hand or flush with water; use barriers, traps, approved biological controls, or least-toxic chemical controls Aggressive weeds Remove by hand or least-toxic chemical methods before they take over; prevent from going to seed Fallen tree Leave for fish cover unless certain that it will cause flooding Erosion Seed bare soil with native or non-invasive grass seed. Call Clean Water Services for suggestions Stressed plants Plants may need more or less water or sun; learn about the species to identify common problems Animal damage See www.cleanwaterservices.org for nutria and beaver management Drought Water 1 inch or less per week 28 29 Get help Some projects on private property may be eligible for volunteer events orga- nized through SOLV, Friends of Trees, or a community event. Clean Water Services may provide technical assistance and plants to some property owners whose streamside enhancement is a priority in the Healthy Streams Plan. For a list of stream enhancement contractors or to view the Healthy Streams Plan please go to www.cleanwaterservices.org. Get going—volunteer opportunities Fortunately, in the Tualatin River Watershed there are many options for people who want to care for local streams, wetlands and the river. Here are just a few ideas: • Learn more about stream restoration and protecting water resources at www.cleanwaterservices.org. • Share the information with friends and neighbor. • Join or form a "Friends" group to monitor, protect and restore your stream. Contact the Tualatin River Watershed Council at www.trwc.org. 30 31 • Volunteer for community stream cleanup and enhancement projects. • Report illegal dumping and chemical spills to DEQ at (503) 229-5263. • Mark storm drains in your neighborhood with the "No Dumping, Drains to River" message. Contact Clean Water Services for free materials and instructions. • Work with Clean Water Services to remove invasive plants, create a long-term management agreement, implement a large-scale restoration plan, or create a conservation plan. Get a tax break—conservation easements Some streamside property owners may take advantage of conservation ease- ments or donate land to a conservancy. A conservation agreement or easement is a legal agreement by which the owner keeps the land but gives up the right to develop or clear it. The agreement between the landowner and a conservancy or public agency ensures the permanent protection of the important natural or cultural resources while keeping the land in private ownership.

Think Deeply
If you're like me, you're on here to maximize your chances of finding a particular type of person: someone who is contemplative, funny, adventurous, knows how to dress, and is of course, good looking. Someone who knows how to have a good time but whose life can't be reduced to one elaborate attempt to keep himself entertained. Someone who can be cordial, respectful, even sophisticated, yet cut loose, crack jokes, watch silly YouTube videos, and sing along with Taylor Swift at the top of his lungs. Someone who cares about people and has put thought into his religious beliefs (or lack thereof) but isn't morally or intellectually condescending. And someone who can write a paragraph that isn't chock-full of fragments… lol. Unfortunately, I'm not that impressive. I can say, though, that I'll never stop becoming all the above. If you can say the same, we're on the same boat. Speaking of boats, I moved here from the Philippines when I was 5. I grew up in the IE and graduated with a BA in Philosophy. I've recently started training to fill an English teaching position in the fall. I listen to a variety from music, from oldies, pop, alternative rock (Copeland, Mae) to hip hop (think Bone Thugs and The Roots: more old school/underground than what's on the radio). Among my interests is basketball—to me it's more of an art form than it is a sport. I've been told that when I maneuver on the court it looks like I'm dancing... and that's exactly what it feels like. Unfortunately, that is the closest I've been to being a dancer, haha. Though I'm fascinated by hip hop culture and dance (the Jabbawockeez are my heroes). I also love import cars. I've been building a "race car" from the ground up for 5 years and can't wait to take it to the track. Fitness has also become a passion of mine. I eat clean, lift 5 days a week and do HIIT (sprint) once a week. Only a few months til I hit my 30 lb increase goal!
Auto racing / Motorcross, Basketball, Billiards / Pool, Bowling, Tennis / Racquet sports, Weights / Machines
I exercise 5 or more times per week.

Menomena Share Mixtape
By Tom Breihan on September 8, 2010 at 12:20 p.m. EDT
Front page photo by Alicia J. Rose
Menomena: Magichat
Think of the mp3 above as a sort of making-of DVD featurette from Menomena. As the track artwork explains, Menomena create their songs using a software program called Deeler, which band member Brent Knopf wrote when he was in college. The recording/looping program helps turn their jam sessions into the songs you hear on their albums. The half-hour "Magichat", which you can download above, collects a whole bunch of Deeler-created loops, some familiar and some not. Enjoy.
The band will spend the next two months on the road in North America and Europe, and we've got their dates below.
Watch: Menomena Make Their TV Debut on "Jimmy Fallon"
By Larry Fitzmaurice on August 10, 2010 at 12:50 p.m. EDT
Last night, Menomena made their national television debut on "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon". The Portland indie rockers brought a track from their recently released Mines, "Killemall", to the small screen, and they did it justice with a taut performance. Sadly, the Roots didn't join in, as they sometimes do, but ?uestlove did take the time yesterday to tweet about how much he likes Menomena's name. So there's that.
Check out the performance below at the 36:55 mark (via the Portland Mercury). UPDATE: Skip right to the performance here. While you're at it, watch the video for the short-but-sweet Mines track "Dirty Cartoons", which features a bearded man playing some pretty mean air-drums on a subway platform. You can also watch the latter over at Pitchfork.tv.

Right now you can listen to Menomena's forthcoming full-length Mines, over at NPR Music. (It's out July 27 on Barsuk.) You can also grab a free mp3 of the album's second track, "TAOS", above.
You can also stream the new EP from Major Lazer, Lazers Never Die, over at MySpace. Unlike Major Lazer's Pitchfork Music Festival set this weekend, the EP does not feature Chinese dragon dancers, ballerinas, toilet paper, a ladder, champagne, or gymnastic-like simulated sex. It does, however, feature M.I.A. and a Thom Yorke remix.

Mines, the new album from Portland trio Menomena, arrives July 27 in North America from Barsuk, and July 30 in Germany/August 2 in the UK and Europe via City Slang. Come September, the band will bring their instrument-switching live show to the road in North America, playing a ton of shows across this great continent of ours. Dates below.
New Menomena: "FIVE LITTLE ROOMS"

Menomena: Five Little Rooms
It's been more than three years since the instrument-switching indie trio Menomena released Friend and Foe, their last album. They'll make their grand return this summer with new LP Mines, due July 26 in Europe from City Slang and July 27 in North America from Barsuk. That image above is the album's cover art, but looking at it on the computer can't quite convey its power. It's actually a stereogram, a 3D optical illusion (kind of a simple version of those magic eye things).
Also above, you can stream album track "FIVE LITTLE ROOMS". Yes, the title is all in capital letters, like all of the song titles on the album. You can download it from Menomena's site if you supply them with an email address. We've got the album's tracklist below. Last month, band member Justin Harris told us a bit about the LP; click here to read our interview.
Menomena's Harris Talks New Album

It's been more than three years since the Portland indie trio Menomena released their last album, the BNM'ed Friend and Foe. Since then, the band's members have kept busy with various side projects (Lackthereof, Ramona Falls, Faux Hoax), but those extracurricular activities aren't all that's kept them from releasing the follow-up. When Pitchfork checked in with Menomena last year, they said that it took them a while to get on the same page to write the songs.
But now album number four, Mines, is done. Barsuk will release it in North America on July 27, and Europe will get it one day earlier via City Slang. They also released the non-album track "Pilgrim's Progress" on a split Record Store Day 7" with the Helio Sequence.
Menomena Announce New Album

Portland indie rockers Menomena release their third fourth long player on July 27 via Barsuk (July 26 in Europe via City Slang). It's called Mines. The band is also releasing the song "Pilgrim's Progress" on a limited-edition split 7" with the Helio Sequence on Record Store Day, April 17. Listen to it above.
Menomena played the slow-burning Mines track "Queen Black Acid" for our Pitchfork.tv show "Surveillance" at ATP NY last year. Watch it below:
Menomena's Brent Knopf Is Ramona Falls
By Tom Breihan on May 21, 2009 at 1:25 p.m. EDT
The dudes in the Portland indie trio Menomena play multiple instruments, so it makes sense that they'd spawn a ton of side projects. You can't spend all your time playing multiple instruments in one band! Danny Seim has Faux Hoax, which also includes Gang of Four's Dave Allen, as well as his solo project Lackthereof. And now another member of Menomena is striking out on his own. This summer, Brent Knopf will release Intuit, the first album from his new project, Ramona Falls.
Knopf named Ramona Falls after a hiking trail on Oregon's Mount Hood. Intuit features guest appearances from 35 different musicians, including members of the Helio Sequence, Mirah's band, Loch Lomond, and 31 Knots. The album is due from Barsuk on August 18. The tracklist is below; you can hear a couple songs on the Ramona Falls MySpace.
Menomena, meanwhile, are hard at work on a new album, and they talked to us about it last month.

It's been more than two years since the instrument-switching Portland indie trio Menomena last released an album. We caught up with the band to find out how work on the new one is coming along.
Working on:
Follow-up to 2007's Friend and Foe
None yet. Says multi-instrumentalist Danny Seim: "If it were completely up to me, the album would be called I'm Thor, From Lathst Nighth!" It is not completely up to him.
When it's due:
"It will be released in 2010, just in time to celebrate our 10-year anniversary of being in this band together," says Seim. "Holy shit, we're getting old."
Gang of Four + Menomena = Faux Hoax
By Laura Pearson on July 6, 2006 at 2:55 p.m. EDT
Gang of Four bassist Dave Allen has teamed up with guitarist John Askew (Tracker/FILMguerrero label owner) and drummer Danny Seim (Menomena) to form a new group called Faux Hoax (pronounced "Folks"). The Portland-based trio's first song is a talky experimental piece with a heavy bass groove-- about friends dating and dying and doing drugs and finding God.
Titled "Your Friends Will Carry You Home", the track features words and vocals by journalist/musician and fellow Portlander Adam Gnade.

Wings Will Play Tonight Without Filppula
by Paul on 12/06/11 at 03:31 PM ET
Comments (3)
George asked me to update with any news on Flippula while he was out for a few hours…
from Ansar Khan of Mlive,
Detroit Red Wings forward Valtteri Filppula won't play in tonight's game at St. Louis (7:30 p.m., Fox Sports Net Detroit) due to the deep cut he sustained on his lower right shin Sunday in Colorado.
Filppula skated today at Scottrade Center, but didn't feel comfortable.
"It was sore. I wouldn't really skate,'' Filppula said. "The skate (adjustment) was as good as it can be, but I really couldn't really push it.

2006 Kia Rio Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 11 reviews
The Kia Rio compact sedan is truly a budget personal car, low on features, but high on fuel economy, safety, reliability, and affordability. Some equate low price with low quality, but the redesigned all-new 2006 Kia Rio boasts a better engine, chassis refinements, and improved fuel economy to broaden its appeal. The superior Kia warranty doesn't hurt either.
The 2006 Kia Rio comes in either base or LX sedan or a Rio5 hatchback, which has a slightly shorter wheelbase, but a sportier appearance and more than twice the cargo room with the seats folded down (49.6 cubic feet vs. 24 in the sedan). All have a new 1.6-liter I4 that gets 110-hp, up from 104 last year. A 5-speed manual is standard, but the LX has the option of a 4-speed automatic. The base is nearly feature-free: no air conditioning, no radio, no power features. It does have intermittent wipers and a tachometer, and a steering wheel, however. The LX adds air, a CD player, and 60/40 split-fold seats. ABS brakes are optional. A Power Package adds power features and heated mirrors, and a Sports Package adds Rio5 features, such as 15-inch alloy wheels, a rear spoiler, metallic interior trim, a leather steering wheel, and foglights.
Also new in 2006 are more airbags. All models of the 2006 Rio now come with 6 airbags, include dual front and side and side curtain. The improved Rio is also longer and wider, with a 98-inch wheelbase, meaning more legroom for passengers. In fact, the Rio leads its segment for interior room. This is appealing to owners, who also like the great 32/35 mpg, quiet insulated ride, and sportier handling. Price tag and overall economy are the biggest selling points. Criticisms focus on the lack of features, especially cruise control and a radio in the base model. The seatbelt warning can be annoying.

Java Programmer - J2EE, SpringMVC, Wicket, Hibernate, jQuery, Android
Poland - Last active: 11/30/2012 - Tests: 11
Over 10 years of experience in IT, concentrated on Java technology, especially on Web technologies and frameworks. My favorites are lightweight technologies and frameworks like Spring, Wicket, Lucene Search/Solr and Hibernate, but I have experience with more sophisticated ones like ESB (Progress Sonic), CouchDB, bayesian networks. My area of expertise are also Javascript and jQuery/Ajax all for Web 2.0 approach, my CSS/HTML knowledge allows me to make ready to use projects just from the graphics artist design, for responsive layouts I prefer Twitter Bootstrap. I know mainstream social solutions like Facebook API, Twitter API, authentication with them or Google SSO. I also write applications for Android platform, and have a good knowledge of C++, and Windows API. I can do simple Ubuntu Linux/FreeBSD administrative tasks for deploying applications on server. I have very good knowledge of PHP5 and SQL. I used to work with MySQL, PostgreSQL, H2 and HSQL databases. In Java development I usually use Hibernate with its criteria API, with occasional SQL performance optimization. In my job I usually use Maven2, as the greatest build and dependency helper, of course I know how to use Git or Subversion, how to resolve conflicts, merge branches, make tags, I know a lot on unit testing (JUnit, Mockito, etc.), and continuos development - I worked with Hudson, Sonar, TeamCity. My code is clean, good naming conventions, for both Spring and Hibernate I use annotations, with small amount of XML where needed. I'm able to work in different timezones and I keep the deadlines even the shortest ones. I want to work on web projects: web pages, REST/SOAP APIs, high availability applications servers, Android applications and backends for them.

Software developer
Colombia - Last active: 5 months ago - Tests: 7
I'm not just a developer, most developers are accustomed to do tasks and follow instructions without asking, I don't. I'm very analytical and I'm used to discuss on everything before do it, if I don't agree or think that there's a better way to do it and that's the reason why I started my career as Software Architect in the company I'm working on as full time employee. Yes, I'm currently working as full time sr. developer/Jr architect but I'm open to proposals, if there's a good income. About my skills, I plan to take some of the test provided by upwork.com but I really don't agree with that kind of measures because they rely on our memory. About my experience, I've been working for 7+ years in software development, 2 of them part time, in the University, before receive my degree as Electronic Engineer. I work developing software applications backend and frontend (richclient and web) but, the last 2 months, I've been focused on architectural design. I've worked as database analist too, managing 4 DB2 databases (in the development and test stages) and supporting the development team I was part of. I also was the team leader. I can say too much more about my self but it's going to be boring, I'm currently studying the guts of javascript and front-end web development (without frameworks). Main skills: Fast learning, auto managed, knowledge in Java, JavaScript, php, jsp, SQL databases. Those envolves things like: rich client, web client, servlets, Single page Apps, Ajax, Extjs, Oracle, MySQL, DB2, and some other stuff.

Historical Traveler Reviews The Michelangelo Hotel New York City
Look no further, this is a good one
We stayed here for a week in March 2003 with our child to do the NYC tourist thing and we could not have been happier with the hotel. GREAT location, friendly staff and not terribly expensive by NYC standards.
Our regular room was not huge but big enough and the bathroom was quite elegant. This is a small hotel so we did not feel like a small fish in a big sea like in the bigger mega-hotels in the area. If location is everything, it does't get much better. We needed a lot of help from the concierge and he was just great. We won't even look at another hotel next time we visit the City.
Bad Service, Italian Style
The Michelangelo has a reserved stately appearance and an unfortunate egotistical streak. The rooms are appropriately cramped for Manhattan standards, the service is abysmal. The desk reception was surly at best and connecting with the upper management to reslove a hotel billing error was next to impossible. The manager confessed to a problem but was unaware of the details, only to delegate to another who merely kept saying "mistakes happen". Spare yourself the indignity of dealing with this staff. Stay elswhere.
The best small hotel
the best small hotel. the rooms were not small, very spacious and nice bathrooms. they were very clean and beds were ultra comfortable. the staff was the best seeing to all our needs. we highly recommend the michelangelo, we have stayed in hotels all over the world and this is one of our favorites. great location too!!!!
Forget the Plaza...We're going back to the Michelangelo
Can't say enough great things about this hotel. My husband and I decided to stay at the Michelangelo for our anniversary and LOVED it. We've stayed in a lot of hotels for work and pleasure and fell in love with this boutique gem in New York. Our room was quiet and decorated beautifully. You can always tell a good hotel by the hallways...if it looks like hundreds of tourists have flocked through, you're in trouble. Not a problem at the Michelangelo. The hotel was lovely and you could tell that they go to great lengths to make it look and feel luxurious. It did remind us of the boutique hotel we stayed in when we honeymooned in Paris...only our room at the Michelangelo was much larger and better appointed. Our room had double shades so you could block out the lights and the sounds of the streets below which enabled us to sleep in and miss the free breakfast they offered at the hotel. We didn't care..It's New York after all....we would rather hit one of our favorite restaurants than worry about getting a free continental breakfast. Stay at the Michelangelo...you'll love it!!!
Tough to beat!
The Michelangelo hotel is a real find! Stayed 5 nights in a king room. It was huge! Bathroom was especially nice. The hotel's location cannot be beat. Service was excellent. Skip the continential breakfast in the morning even though its included in the tab. It's terrible. Head to the cafe Europa two blocks away instead. My only complaint is that I found the room's heating & air cond. system to be pretty noisy, but it only interferred with my sleep on the first night. Also, if a well-equipped fitness center is important to you, go to the Parker Meridien. But the Michelangelo is a charming, exceptionally well located hotel and I won't hesitate to stay there again.
Fantastic Hotel
I researched NY hotels for my girlfriends b'day and got a great deal online. The rooms are spacious, elegant, and very quiet. The staff couldn't be nicer (Warning to all of you confirmed bachelors out there. The staff assumes you are Mr and Mrs. I think that was her favorite part of the experience.) Huge marble bathtub, Bose stereo, comfy bed, if you want to pamper yourself, this is the place.
I loved this hotel!
I absolutely loved this hotel. I booked a regular king room, but was upgraded to a studio upon arrival. The room was fantastic! The bed was very comfortable, the robes were nice and comfy and the marble bathtub was great. The room was large with a seating area and a large bathroom with a separate dressing room. The staff was also amazing. I ordered room service for dinner one night and the next morning, when I saw the server at breakfast, he asked if I enjoyed my dinner. The complimentary breakfast and cappuccino was great in the mornings as was the selection of national and international newspapers. I wish I had stayed here on my last trip to New York!
A Fine Weekend!
Stayed the weekend at a great weekend rate (from the hotel's own website!) in two rooms. Good, central location. Beautiful, large rooms. Both (even the single) had a sitting area. Big bathtubs, all ammenties (including double window shades to keep out the aggressive street light. ) Tinkling chandeliers in the evators, very good service. New York Times delivered to the room and an accessible, high speed computer for guest use in a lobby alcove. Helpful concierge. The bar/breakfast area off the lobby was very nice, but I would steer clear of the restaurant--too pricey for the level of the cuisine. The breakfast I had included over-cooked sausage and dry, almost stale toast. They should stick to the hotel business.
Sometimes you have to indulge yourself!
After reading lots of great online reviews, we chose the Michelangelo for our anniversary weekend. This place is perfect if you want to indulge yourself and be surrounded by luxury! Down to the smallest detail, this place is truly a work of art. The Renaissance style and fine Italian artwork are combined with the highest quality furniture and fabrics. And MARBLE. Lots of marble. The room was perfect, and the bath was big enough for two! The luxurious bathrobes were a nice touch as well. We brought along a CD of our wedding songs, and it sounded amazing on the BOSE stereo in our room. I can't think of a better place to have celebrated our anniversary, and we look forward to returning again!
Great Hotel!!
Stayed at the Michelangelo last weekend - a great place!! Beautiful decor combined with a great staff, great prices and a very quiet stay all added up to a trip to remember. We will return again next time we are in the city!

Walking tour day
... and not mine! Update: Not even four o'clock and we're back at the hotel after an exhausting morning. Fitbit shows 18000 steps and Pepere's phone logged 7 miles - my feet definitely believe that!

Hello Everybody! I'm writing from New York City!
This morning we woke up at Sheldon's house, had breakfast and headed for Manhattan. We went to the Empire State building where we looked at the beautiful flowers all around the city.

Broadway Getaway
... to get lunch at a cafe and walked over to 54th street. Our tickets were way up top, the last row of the theater but the seats were stacked and we really could see everything. They had it set up like an actual cabaret, with table and chairs on the bottom row where they actually had drinks and appetizers. We, of course, did not buy those tickets but it was still a really cool atmosphere. The show was really good, with an amazing set and spectacular performances. It was really ...

seems life really gets in the way of blogging. i try. i really do try. but there are times when i don't think it really matters since there are some really great crafting blogs out there. anyhoo, no more promises...i'll blog when i can blog. besides, there are so many wonderful crafters out there, i don't think my bits are missed. :-)
there HAS been some knitting...most of the projects were gifted as soon as they came off the needles.
Pattern: Modern Log Cabin Blanket
yarn: teal/turqoise- Ultra Alpaca (doubled); all other colors Cascade Ecological Wool
needles: Addi Turbo size 8
i have 2 1/2 panels left--according to the pattern sequence they will be in the alpaca and light grey. this will be a comfort blanket for a friend who is battling cancer. i planned to have a flannel backing attached.
so yeah, that's what i'm working on now.

Dubai International Capital, a private equity investment arm of Dubai Holding, reported it has reached an agreement with six of its lending banks to delay repayment of a $1.25 billion debt until September 30th, the Telegraph reported.
The company said in a statement, "he extension period would allow the implementation of a consensual longer-term plan that would enable DIC to maximize the value of its business for the benefit of all its stakeholders," the story quoted.
The DIC has a reported $2.6 billion in total debt, $1.25 billion of which is due now and has received the 90-day extension. British bank exposure to Dubai's debts is of increasing concern as Europe faces its own debt crisis, the Telegraph said.

At the time, the Kurdish Peshmerga did take up positions in the oil-rich city of Kirkuk, where they remain to this day.
Turkish media reported the airstrikes came after Kurdish separatists attacked a military barracks nearby.
A local Kurdish farmer later took me to a border spot near his farmhouse.
