Posts about Gentrification
DC students' scores grew dramatically on national standardized tests, more than almost every state. This is good news, but it's hard to know whether the gains actually mean we're educating students better, or just that more wealthy families are sending their kids to DC schools.
Raise the height limit? That's part of a bigger question
Should DC raise its height limit? A study aims to answer this question, but we can't consider this issue entirely in a vacuum. The real question is, where should DC grow?
The National Capital Planning Commission (NCPC) and DC Office of Planning (OP) are running the study, which includes 5 public meetings over the next 2 weeks, starting this Saturday in Tenleytown.
Rapidly-rising housing prices in the District show that many more people want to live in DC than do today. Without extra supply, that means more gentrification, and greater numbers of less wealthy renters getting pushed out of their longtime neighborhoods.
More supply isn't the only solution, but it's an important piece. In short, DC is building housing fast, but not fast enough.
So where should this housing go? There are obstacles to new housing just about everywhere.
- In wealthy neighborhoods, residents file lawsuits against new developments, and the historic preservation process often lops off an extra floor or two for project after project.
- In poorer neighborhoods, many residents also worry about larger buildings, and fear that change will bring gentrification that displaces longtime residents.
- Downtown, the height limit restricts buildings so that there is very little more that can be built.
Beyond that, and even before, the growth has to go to wealthy neighborhoods, poorer neighborhoods, and/or downtown. We haven't had a citywide discussion about what mix of these is the right one. Instead, individual neighborhoods and developers fight the same battle on site after site. Each neighborhood tries to be the best at pushing development to someone else's neighborhood. Some "succeed" more than others.
The same happens for transportation. The MoveDC study is looking at how much to focus transportation investment on the downtown or on neighborhoods. This question goes hand in hand with the question of where to grow. Neighborhoods and BIDs all want transportation investments. The right answer is to locate the transportation investments in and around the places where we want the growth to be.
Not growing is a bad solution for many reasons, and isn't even realistic. The height limit may be one part of an answer. If it's not, then residents need to find answers elsewhere, not stick their heads in the sand.
The 5 meetings are:
- Saturday, August 3, 10:30-12:30 at the Tenley-Friendship Library
- Tuesday, August 6, 6:38-8:30 pm at Dorothy Height/Benning Library
- Wednesday, August 7, 6:38-8:30 pm at the Mt. Pleasant Library
- Saturday, August 10, 10:30-12:30 at Catholic University's Crough Center
- Tuesday, August 13, 6:38-8:30 pm at the Office of Planning in Southwest
Are Logan Circle's changes wonderful, or something else?
14th Street and Logan Circle have developed into a premier destination in DC, and there is much to celebrate about that. But the neighborhood is also becoming an ever-more-exclusive neighborhood that increasingly feels out of reach for many.
Transformation has raced ahead
The Washington Post wrote this weekend about "Gentrification in Overdrive on 14th Street." What is occurring along 14th Street now, one could scarcely even call "gentrification" any more.
I work just a few blocks west of 14th Street, and venture over there occasionally. Before, I lived there for 5 years, wrote a blog about the area, and was on a first-name basis with many 14th Street business owners. I felt as if I knew every building and block by heart.
What I find is a neighborhood that, in less than two years' time, has transformed to a point where even I barely recognize it.
The admittedly sensitive topic of "gentrification" came up in roundabout ways numerous times during my 14th Street blogging days. Commenters would bemoan the loss of the supposed "character" of old 14th Street with the opening of every new wine bar or high-end furniture store. Escalating housing costs and businesses that were increasingly perceived to cater to a certain demographic (often white, always wealthy) led to a great amount of suspicion. And even many of us who didn't regard every restaurant opening with skepticism, such as myself, still questioned in what direction the neighborhood was headed, and who stood to benefit.
With the skyrocketing real estate prices and the nature of the businesses flooding into the corridor, I now feel that we have an answer to those questions. And if you aren't in a position to afford a $900,000 condo, you probably aren't going to like those answers.
It's better... but is it 'wonderful?'
It's a given that a city needs revenue in order to provide services to its citizens. Inhabited, maintained, tax revenue-generating properties are a positive for the city. And when the businesses that fill properties along commercial corridors succeed, they not only put revenue in the city's coffers, they incite more businesses to open and help to cultivate an energy and vitality that many seek via city living. Ideally, you have a win-win situation: a more bustling, energetic city that is providing more and better-quality services to its residents.
Harriet Tregoning, director of the DC Office of Planning, told the Post, "What is going on on 14th Street is fascinating, anomalous and wonderful for the city." Fascinating, yes. Anomalous, perhaps. Wonderful? Well that depends on who you ask, and who you are.
You won't find many who clamor for the conditions of the "old" 14th Street, or at least not the social ills that plagued it and surrounding streets throughout much of the latter-half of the 20th century. I have family members who lived along the corridor in the mid-80s who can regale you with stories of the drug transactions, prostitution, and other activities that took place just outside their front door.
The corridor was woefully underdeveloped, a victim of the flight out of the city that began in the late 1950s and reached its zenith immediately following the 1968 riots. In that respect, there's little argument that 14th Street is in a better place today than it was 20 or 30 years ago.
But there is no shortage of people who clamor for a more connected and sustainable neighborhood, one more accessible to a broader array of people where there's a greater likelihood that many of its residents will be able to put down roots and investment in its improvement for the long term.
A significant reason why 14th Street was able to turn around and become a desirable address was the tireless work of many residents who moved there during the 1970s, '80s and '90s Stability quickly turns into unaffordability
For many people, there didn't seem to be much of an "in between" stage for 14th Street and Logan Circle. The neighborhood never really seemed to strike that balance between offering stability and a good quality of life with affordability and approachability.
It seemed to vault between two extremes over a relatively short period of time. The change that took place along 14th Street was drastic, and whenever change occurs that quickly, there will be people who were able to "get in" and are largely satisfied, and there will be people who find themselves shut out.
My wife and I found ourselves in the latter category. After living in a one-bedroom Logan Circle apartment for 5 years, we determined that, in addition to needing to provide my wife with a saner commute to her Montgomery County employer, we had tired of running into each other and simply needed more space.
We would have preferred to remain in Logan had we been able to, but aside from a handful of two-bedroom apartments and condos that were approximately the size of (or smaller than) our one-bedroom home, we found ourselves largely priced out of the market. A $600-$700,000 "luxury" condo, with its associated condo fees and taxes, was simply beyond reach.
But my evolving feelings about my old neighborhood don't just come from my own experiences while living there. They're also shaped by what has happened there since we left. The types of businesses that have continued to move into the neighborhood Beyond the upscale boutiques and restaurants, and the neighborhood's overall shift in commercial character, lies an even greater issue: who is moving here for the long term? I certainly do not mean to suggest that there aren't many fine, committed residents in Logan Circle invested in the long-term betterment of their neighborhood. I know from firsthand experience that there are. But much of the new housing along and around 14th Street and featured in the Post story isn't being built with long-term inhabitance in mind.
Many people can only live in a studio or cramped one-bedroom apartment for so long. Eventually you couple off, have a child, or simply decide you need more room. Where to, then? With, as the Post notes, two bedroom condos in the neighborhood fetching close to $1 million, and houses garnering more, it's safe to assume that many will not remain.
How do you build a community with such a constant revolving door of residents? And what happens if you can't? They are questions Logan Circle residents will need to answer over the coming years and decades.
Trendy destination, yes; good neighborhood?
14th Street is a very popular destination, but as a neighborhood Logan Circle today can feel a bit hollow. Undoubtedly, there are many fun places to go, good drinks to be drunk, and great food to be eaten. It's lively, it's safer, and it's generating a lot of money for the city. "Huzzah!" to all of that.
But before we stamp it with a "wonderful" and seek to determine how we can emulate it in other DC neighborhoods, consider everything that it may not be: Affordable. Approachable. Sustainable. Economically diverse. And then ask yourself what the District would look like if every neighborhood developed along a similar path.
I recently took a stroll along 14th Street, past old haunts like Thaitanic, Great Wall, and Pulp, and past new additions like Be Too, Black Whiskey, Ghibellina, Pearl Dive, and everyone's new favorite French brasserie, Le Diplomate. I felt some nostalgia for the street I walked along so many times, and I marveled at the frantic energy and the rapid pace of change that brought it to this point.
And then I studied the people dining outside at 14th Street's many sidewalk cafes, and I wondered how many of them live in the neighborhood? How many could? How many would make it their home for 10, 20, 30 years? And how many simply view it as a playground of sorts, good for a night out or a stroll, but otherwise not a place they can Change is inevitable, and there are many things to enjoy about the "new" 14th Street. It's a great destination, and can be a fine place to live. But I'm not sure that everything's wonderful.
A version of this article was posted at North FlintVille.
Yes, 14th Street is DC's densest area
Sunday's Washington Post featured a big story about gentrification on 14th Street, including the claim that it "recently surpassed Columbia Heights as the densest area in the city." Is that true? The US Census can tell us.
Using American FactFinder, I created this map illustrating the population density of DC's central neighborhoods.
5 of DC's 6 overall densest census tracts border on 14th Street, between downtown and the northern end of Columbia Heights. It's definitely the city's densest string of neighborhoods.
But is it denser north or south of Florida Avenue? That depends how you count. While the stretch of 14th Street between Florida Avenue and P Street remains a little sparser than in Columbia Heights, the stretch from P Street south to Thomas Circle is the densest single tract in DC.

On the calendar: White Flint happy hour, Dupont buses, Potomac Ave, Bethesda sidewalk, gentrification and more
What are you doing this week? If you care about the future of the White Flint area, there's a happy hour Tuesday. If you care about gentrification in DC, you might enjoy a panel discussion in Anacostia Thursday.
If you care about bus service on 16th Street, sidewalks from Friendship Heights to Bethesda, or pedestrian and bike safety around Potomac Avenue Metro, there are local community meetings on important transportation projects tonight and Thursday. And take a tour of Frederick Douglass's Anacostia with John Muller Saturday.
Here are some highlights from the Greater Greater Washington calendar:
16th Street buses in Dupont: WMATA bus planner Jim Hamre will meet with residents about the performance of the S line, where many riders have to endure long waits during rush hour. That's not because the buses take a long time to come, but rather, full bus after full bus pass them by on this extremely popular line.
New Dupont ANC commissioner Kishan Putta organized the meeting, tonight (Monday), 7:30 pm at the JCC, 16th and Q (enter on Q Street). Residents are free to bring up concerns about other bus lines as well.
Sidewalk on Wisconsin Ave. in Bethesda: Maryland SHA wants to build a 6-foot sidewalk on the east side of Wisconsin Avenue between Friendship Heights and Bethesda. The Little Falls Watershed Alliance is opposing the sidewalk because it will require cutting down trees, but WABA wants to ensure there's a safe route for pedestrians and cyclists on this road.
There's a public meeting tonight (Monday), 7:30-9 pm at Somerset Town Hall, 4510 Cumberland Avenue, Chevy Chase, where SHA will present plans and hear from residents.
Friends of White Flint happy hour: On Tuesday, Friends of White Flint and the Coalition for Smarter Growth are having a happy hour to talk about how to make the suburbs "hip," or much more than "hip."
The happy hour starts at 5:30pm at Seasons 52, 11414 Rockville Pike, a short walk from the White Flint Metro station. Councilmembers Hans Riemer and Roger Berliner will be there; RSVP here.
Potomac Ave "circle": DDOT has been studying ways to improve the intersection of Pennsylvania and Potomac Avenues, at the Potomac Avenue Metro. A previous study recommended a sort of square with 5-lane roadways around the edge; at this meeting, DDOT will present its new ideas, which it hasn't yet released, and hear from residents.The meeting is Thursday, January 31, 6:30-8:30pm at Payne Elementary, 1445 C Street, SE.
Does redevelopment mean gentrification? River East Emerging Leaders (r.e.e.l.) is convening a panel discussion on the positive and negative effects of redevelopment, and lessons learned for the future.
The panel will include NBC's Tom Sherwood, planning head Harriet Tregoning, Clinton Yates of the Washington Post, and a number of other community and city leaders. It's Thursday, January 31, 7 pm at the DHCD Community Room, 1800 Martin Luther King Avenue, SE in Anacostia. RSVP at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Frederick Douglass's Anacostia: Greater Greater Washington contributor John Muller, who recently wrote a book about Frederick Douglass and his years in Anacostia, is giving a tour Saturday of the places Douglass frequented, including majestic views of the Capitol, and historical explanations of Douglass's life. The tour runs from 1-2:30 pm and costs $30.
MoveDC Idea Exchange: And don't forget, Saturday, February 9th is the big "Idea Exchange" for DDOT's moveDC citywide transportation plan. You can stop by the MLK Library for fun and even family-friendly interactive transportation booths anytime from 9:30-3.
An organized program begins at 10:30, including a panel discussion at 11 featuring PolicyLink's Anita Hairston, author Chris Leinberger, and Slate blogger Matthew Yglesias.

Amid change, affordable housing revitalizes parts of Ward 5
As development along Rhode Island Avenue and New York Avenue take shape over the next few years, much of DC's Ward 5 will see major changes. But can these changes draw new residents without displacing existing ones? A key element will be to preserve and expand the availability of affordable housing.
In recent weeks there have been new stories about development along Rhode Island Avenue, the warehouses by Union Market, and of course, Joe Biden's trip to Costco.
Last week, the Housing For All Campaign hosted a town hall meeting on housing in Ward 5. The meeting focused on how to keep existing residents and draw new ones as the housing landscape changes dramatically.
Fortunately, many organizations have had success developing affordable housing in Ward 5. One of the smallest is Open Arms Housing, which provides permanent housing and wrap-around services to 11 chronically homeless and mentally ill women.
Marilyn Kresky-Wolff is the Director of Open Arms, and she spoke at the Housing Town Hall about the success her program has had in the lives of these women: none of their residents have returned to homelessness. Two of the residents spoke about getting back on their feet and rebuilding their lives.
Open Arms Housing, like many other projects in Ward 5, have succeeded by paying attention to the needs of the community they serve. This was particularly important when they rehabilitated the 258 units at Edgewood Terrace VI, an extensive complex just across Rhode Island Avenue on 4th Street NE.
In the early 1990s, Edgewood Terrace served as one of the largest drug markets in Washington. Today it is a mixed income apartment community with on site services for residents including adult education, computer training, and day care programs for children. The key ingredient in the outstanding change was the commitment of the developers, Community Preservation and Development Corporation, to tenant engagement in every step of the revitalization process.
In 1995, when the Community Preservation and Development Corporation (CPDC) bought the first section of Edgewood Terrace from HUD, CPDC immediately sat down with tenant association leaders. The relationship between CPDC and the tenants resulted in renovated apartments, as well as common areas for youth programs, job training, computer classes, and community events.
With more people drawn to public spaces and a partnership between CPDC, the tenants, and the Metropolitan Police Department they were able to break up the drug trade. Residents who had once been afraid to venture outside after dark now had reclaimed their community.
Affordable housing developers continue to find solutions to meet the diverse housing needs of the community. Ward 5 residents can look forward to the opening of Metropolitan Overlook, a mixed income condominium on 2nd Street NE, just blocks off of Rhode Island Ave. Rehabbing a property that has sat vacant for 20 years, Metropolitan Overlook will be a 37-unit condominium with 11 permanently affordable units.
Ward 5 will continue to benefit from the investments in affordable housing that build vibrant spaces for current and future District residents.
As DC neighborhoods change, carry outs hold on
Carry out restaurants have been part of the fabric of Washington for decades, prized for their low prices, speed and long hours. With menus that run on for pages and pages, many break norms, serving Chinese food, fried seafood and sandwiches under one roof.
And although development has brought in new restaurants and businesses along the U Street corridor, on 14th Street Northwest, and in Logan Circle, carry outs are holding on. Of the those listed on the popular user review site Yelp, at least 24 carry outs are still operating in Northwest.
"We've been here since 1968. I don't plan to go anywhere," said Henrietta Smith, who owns Henry's Soul Cafe on U Street.
Named for Smith's father, Henry Smith, the restaurant is famous for its stick-to-your-bones comfort food and sweet potato pie, which was profiled by The Washington Post in 2007. "Mr. Henry can't cook, so he had to have other people cook," Smith said. Her brothers own the store's 2 other locations, at the intersection of 4th and K Streets NW and in Oxon Hill, MD.
While she said that the new restaurants are competition for her business, Smith sees the changes on U Street as a good thing. "The neighborhood is more diverse now," Smith said. "You're dealing with all walks of life." She has been able to rely on a steady flow of regulars, who come to 17th and U from all over the DC area for her smothered pork chops, fried chicken and ribs. "You don't forget where home is," she said.
One of those customers is Darren Snell, 47. Snell has been coming to Henry's for 21 years, and said that not much has changed. "The meatloaf still tastes the same today as it did back then," he said.
Smith said that gentrification has made the area more diverse, which bodes well for Henry's prospects going forward. "The regulars are still coming and the newcomers are coming too," he said. "[Henry's] isn't going anywhere."
In Logan Circle, Chong Hu, 58, has no plans to close her business, The Carry Out Deli. Like Smith, Hu said that loyal customers have helped her stay afloat for the last 27 years.
Lily Pilgrim, 84, lives two blocks away from the Deli and stops by 2-3 times per week. "[It's] much better and cheaper than any other restaurant on P Street," she said.
Pilgrim is bullish on the Deli's chances of staying open. "[Hu] has the same customers over the years. They go out of their way to come here. It should be here for a long, long time," she said.
Hu sees both the pros and cons of development. As office buildings on 14th were replaced by condos in the last few years, the lunch crowd has died down dramatically, cutting into her profits. "My business is real slow," Hu said. "Now everyone goes to coffee shop."
But, on the positive side, there are "no more drunk people," Hu said. In the 1980s, "every day I called the police," she said. For her part, Pilgrim, who has lived in the area for 30 years, said that she used to avoid walking down 14th Street because it was too dangerous.
Brendon Miller, public affairs director for the city's department of small and local business development, said that new development does not automatically result in an outward flow of small businesses. "You've got small businesses that come in and you've got small businesses that depart. It's cyclical," he said.
And some small businesses, like Henry's and the Carry Out Deli, have reached "institution status," which helps them stay open in a changing landscape. "The business owners take the time to identify with the folks coming through the door, and to sort of cultivate repeat customers," he said. "It's got to attract people from the neighborhood."
A few carry outs have left the area for various reasons. Yum's, which used to sit at the intersection of 14th and Wallach streets NW, was recently demolished to make way for an upscale apartment building. It will reopen soon in Pleasant Plains, a neighborhood east of Columbia Heights. And the Mid City Deli, which neighbors The Carry Out Deli, closed its doors in June 2012.
City health inspectors have played a role in shutting down some carry outs, at least temporarily. Before becoming a hole in the ground, Yum's was cited for two health hazards and closed for a day. And in April, the Mid City Deli was closed twice for a variety of health hazards.
China Dragon Carry Out, which sits at the intersection of 11th and P Streets NW, was recently closed "for gross unsanitary conditions, operating without a license, [having] an improperly trained manager and failure to minimize insects."
Alicia Davis-Coates, 39, said that she looks for information about health inspection-related closings in the newspaper when deciding where to eat. Her carry out-of-choice is Yum's II on 14th Street. A resident of Fort Totten, Davis-Coates said that Yum's II is worth the drive.
"The food is fresher. You can actually see them make it," she said on a recent Friday night, take out bag in hand. "And they've never been shut down."
"Neighborhoods are like children. They need attention differently."
"Gentrification is a word urbanists and people in this area banter about," said former Mayor Anthony Williams at a panel discussion last night, "but neighborhoods are like children. They need attention differently."
No one size fits all. Williams said residents in Upper Northwest "just want services and not development." Meanwhile across the Anacostia River, the demand is for "critical government attention," like the big projects in the works at Saint Elizabeths and Skyland, or the recently-opened early childhood development center Educare in Parkside.
The DC Humanities Council organized the panel, which Washington City Paper editor Mike Madden moderated. Washington Post business reporter Jonathan O'Connell and Historic Preservation Review Board members Maria Casarella and Rauzia Ally joined Williams to discuss the role of public policy and economic development.
Is there a "Plan" to displace residents?
In 2003, when Williams was mayor, he set a goal of attracting 100,000 new residents over the following decade. A recent survey now shows the District is gaining people at a rate of a thousand a month.
Some in the audience expressed suspicions that this is part of a devious and covert plan to drive members of old Washington communities out of the city. Williams disputed the concept. "The notion that there is a plan may sound good, but it's crazy," he said, and noted that as mayor, he supported programs like the Housing Production Trust Fund to preserve affordable housing.
Offering a reality check of sorts for skeptics, O'Connell added, "Marion Barry is glad to sit down with developers." During Barry's mayoralty, "investments were made that were part of 'the plan'" such as building the Verizon Center downtown and the Reeves Center at 14th & U Streets in the mid-1980s.
"The value of real estate has more of an impact than policy," said O'Connell. "Apartments are being built on 14th Street not because of policy but because it is the best place to build apartments in the country." Williams consented that "the market moves faster than the city." From bike lanes to new neighborhood branch libraries, panelists and audience members agreed that public policy decisions and capital investments made years ago guide current trends.
Neighborhoods need to be involved in shaping growth
Neighborhood revitalization is at its best when residents can work with government to regenerate from within, argued Casarella. She cited the successful restoration of homes in historic Anacostia through the Office of Planning's Historic Homeowner Grant Program as an ideal example of a working partnership between the city and neighborhood residents to direct change instead of just reacting to it.
Commercial and residential development in designated historic neighborhoods passes through Advisory Neighborhood Commissions, which receive "great weight" at the final level of agency review, said Caserella. "You are the most important planner."
"When was the last time that ever mattered?" an audience member called out. "I have to dismiss your cynicism," Casarella said, reflecting the overall belief of the panel that Washington's active neighborhood level associations influence both planning and economic development.
Panelists discussed how parks can be an irreplaceable public good for a neighborhood when an audience member asked the panel to predict the future of development "east of the river which is 15 years behind what has happened on U Street.""It is very hard to add green space later," O'Connell said, alluding to ongoing development in NoMA where "they missed planning a park." With development projects either in the early stages or waiting to break ground throughout Wards 7 and 8, O'Connell cautioned residents to remain vigilant in maintaining their natural recreation space. "Poplar Point is 110 acres and 70 acres is set aside to be a park. I would be careful to make sure the 70 acres stays," as the project slowly moves toward development.
Whereas previous conversations in the Humanities Council series have been emotionally charged, the evening's conversation featured a more reasoned tone, with mature and insightful analysis. Most people were able to agree on at least a few things: as the city grows in population, neighborhoods will respond differently, but the best response is when residents engage constructively in the process. That gives residents both a sense of ownership over their neighborhood, and a voice in decisions that guide local development.

UN says agency teacher killed in Gaza
Arabic teacher was in a car close to where an airstrike hit, the agency says
The UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees in the Near East said that Marwan Abu Al Qumsan was killed on Wednesday. Al Qumsan was in his early 50s and taught Arabic at UNRWA's Preparatory Boys School in Jabalia, and was in a car near the scene of an airstrike, the agency said in a statement.
The agency said the violence in Gaza forced it to close its schools temporarily.
Also on Thursday, the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs said the escalating violence has triggered widespread fear on both sides of the border, and the humanitarian situation in Gaza "remains precarious".

Ey dude, can I have this one in decent size? I want to print it. You may print it too.. whatever suits you.
Click on the button at the top. RAW also available if you want it.
Cool, thanx. First I thought you had a bigger version but then I remembered that you've got a 350D..
What's that supposed to mean?
Well.. 2235 x 2360 pixels is not (even) 6 mp's. Somehow I thought you had a 400D which would give more than 6 mp's thereby rendering 2235 x 2360 a small version of what could have been a bigger version of the photograph. That's why I requested the original. Whe you said to click on the button (thereby implying that the original was already uploaded) I instantly remembered that you have a 350D which has 6 mp's which would most likely produce 2235 x 2360 pixels thereby rendering the "original" picture available through the All Sizes button as truly original.
See you in a couple of hours!

Boots Ingredients Lavender & Jasmine Hand Wash Reviews
Product Type: Boots Hand & Nail Care
Description:Brand: Boots / Type: Hand Wash / Suitable for: Hand
Newest Review: ... quite plain with a simple lightly coloured label on it with a picture of some lavender and jasmine flowers. Through the ... more
by ruby_xo - written on 15/05/11
I am going to review the hand wash we have had sitting in our bathroom for the last couple of weeks. I don't normally review hand washes but I particularly like this one so I thought I would write about it. The hand wash was bought from Boots where it was very reasonably priced at £1.25. This hand wash comes in a transparent plastic bottle containing 300ml. The bottle is quite plain with a simple lightly coloured label on it with a picture of some lavender and jasmine flowers. Through the bottle you can see the lilac hand wash inside. Lilac is one of my favourite colours so despite the fact that it is quite plain I do really like the look of this bottle. ...

by - written on 24/02/10 (Very useful, 133 readings)
I wouldn't go as far as saying I am obsessive about washing my hands, however when I'm at home I probably do wash them quite often -especially when cleaning and cooking - so as such I do get through quite a large amount of hand wash. This particular product was bought out of laziness to be completely honest! I was standing in the queue at Boots and this happened to be on a display next to the counter as it was on special offer at the time. I realised I needed hand wash and although a lavender scented product wouldn't have been my first choice, I picked it up rather than go back to the shelves and have to queue again. I've used quite a few products ... Read the complete review

GSD and Cats?

How does your gsd and cat do? Do you leave them alone together while you're at work?
It varies, but I've NEVER left them alone together when we're not here, and I never will. I've also never not had to do a lot of work to get everyone to get along well. My dogs will still sometimes chase the cats, but my cats are very dog savvy, having been here for years before my current two dogs and both kitties grew up with our previous dogs. I have a cat room with a baby gate across the doorway, so they have a safe place to go. Their food and water, litter box, and cat tree are in there, and although the dogs *could* jump the gate, they don't.
Of course my puppy is kenneled for now while we are at work..but I am trying to see my options for when he is bigger and potty trained. I am not sure if i should let Hank and my cat wonder the house together? Do I trust Hank not to attack him? What are you opinions and experiences? I only have one cat, and so far...they are doing ok. Hissing and barking here and there but no attacks
We have a chain link pen in the garage with a dog door to an outside run for potties, and that's where the dogs go when we're not here. At night they're crated in the bedroom with us. When we're home the dogs and cats can wander around the house freely and do not need to be supervised, but as I said, that took a lot of work before I felt the cats would be safe. Your experience may be different and things could go much easier, but I'd still never risk it when you're not there.

Lindsay Just Says No to Video
Lindsay was looking cozy yesterday pre-hair-salon where she cleaned up her beautiful and completely unnecessary extensions. Perhaps being in the salon is a way to keep her out of trouble. Even if Riley is already behaving badly, Lindsay has been a good girl since leaving rehab. Her lawyers, however, are still dealing with old messes. The latest is that her attorney is trying to get out of having her deposition videotaped regarding that infamous 2005 accident on Robertson. Her lawyer doesn't want LL to run the risk of doing something embarrassing on tape, using Britney's recent similar situation as an example. Over half of you agreed that Brit shouldn't have been taped, so do you think Lindsay deserves the same allowance?
To see more of LL and her hair just read more

NumaConnect Adapter cards deliver true plug-and-play connectivity between standard servers running a single pristine OS image. The hardware-controlled ccNuma environment allows applications to have fast access to the aggregate memory of all servers in the system. NumaChip is fabricated by IBM and was seen operating with IBM x3755 at SC12 in Salt Lake City, Utah.
NumaConnect enables very large shared memory systems built from commodity servers at the price point of high-end clusters. This combination sets a new level of price/capability/performance that has never before been demonstrated with x86 processors. Systems built with NumaConnect run standard operating systems and all x86 applications.
NumaConnect provides a record-breaking main memory capacity of up to 256TBytes in a single commodity-based system. "Customers with Big Data problems are excited by the ability to directly address any record anywhere in their entire data set in a microsecond or less," says Einar Rustad, co-founder and VP of Numascale.
"This is orders of magnitude faster than clusters or systems based on any form of existing mass-storage devices and will enable data analysis and decision support applications to be applied in new and innovative ways," says Kåre Løchsen, Numascale founder and CEO. He adds, "It is also worth mentioning that pilot customers have been surprised by the ease of use through statements like: 'Using Numaconnect shared memory clusters is just like running programs on my desktop, just much more powerful!'"
The technology is being tested for oil exploration applications by Statoil and for general HPC datacenter use by the University of Oslo. Some of the main applications planned in Oslo include bioscience and computational chemistry. The EU project PRACE has financed a 72-node cluster of IBM x3755s for proving the technology.
NumaConnect works with AMD Opteron-based servers connecting to HyperTransport and directly addressable, shared memory can be up to 256TBytes.
NumaConnect provides system-wide cache coherency logic with a directory-based protocol that scales to 4096 nodes where each node can have up to three multicore processors. The cache coherency logic is implemented in an ASIC together with interconnect fabric circuitry with routing tables for multi-dimensional Torus topologies. This type of fabric is very scalable and the same topology is used in the world's largest supercomputers.
NumaConnect starts shipping in December for use with servers from IBM, Supermicro, and AIC.
About Numascale
Numascale has offices in Europe, Asia, and USA, and is supported by: Statoil, ProVenture, Investinor, Innovation Norway, Norges forskningsråd, and Eurostars.
NumaConnect allows high-volume manufactured server boards to be used as building blocks for systems with features that are only found in the high-end enterprise servers. NumaConnect includes full support for virtualization of processing, memory, and I/O resources, and can be used with standard operating systems.

Medical ethics and double standards
Posted Jul 02 2010 10:15pm
I agree that doctors need to improve their ethical standards, but what really upsets me is the double standards which have now been institutionalised, with the entry of corporate hospitals into the medical field.
While everyone is happy to loudly criticise the specialist who gives kickbacks to the family physician for referring patents to him, why is everyone so mute when it comes to the kickbacks which the hospitals give to doctors for filling their hospital beds ? All corporate hospitals give these cuts and commissions openly and shamelessly. They employ a large number of very presentable executives ( mostly female) in their Dept of Public Relations, and cleverly call it a "patient management fee", when the only management involved is writing the referral note !
It's the same story with the medical tourism companies. All hospitals are happy to give large commissions to these tourism companies for the "facilitation services" they provide, but these are costs which then get passed onto the poor unsuspecting patient !
Why should we allow double standards in medicine ? After all, both doctors in private practise and hospitals are competing for the same patient - let's have a level playing field; and not be hypocritical ! If it's OK for hospitals to give kickbacks ( which they treat as " the cost of doing business") , then let's allow doctors to do this as well ! In fact , doing it openly will help to improve transparency !

Police need more help to ID torso found in Niagara River
Police in Ontario and New York state are renewing a joint plea for the public's assistance after a woman's torso was found floating in the Niagara River last week.
Niagara police Insp. Jim McCaffery says investigators are reviewing 50 local missing person cases but none so far have matched the description of the dismembered victim.
"We ask that you contact female family members that you have not heard from recently," said McCaffery during a news conference Tuesday at Niagara Regional Police headquarters in St. Catharines, Ont.
"Contact co-workers who have not shown up to work to check on their welfare and check on neighbours with unexplained absences," McCaffery said.
He urged the public to call the police if anything suspicious crops up.
"No tip is too small for us to follow up on," said McCaffery. "Someone in the community knows who this person is."
Police have classified this case as a homicide investigation.
Over the weekend, investigators received 15 to 20 tips from the public ranging from reports of suspicious items and strange behaviour from people.
None of them have panned out, said McCaffery.
New York State police Capt. Steven Nigrelli says they have also been checking missing person reports south of the border.
Post-mortem results indicate the torso belongs to a Caucasian woman between 31 and 55 years old. The woman also had a pierced navel and two caesarean section scars.
It's believed the torso had been in the water for four to 10 days before it was found by a passerby last Wednesday.
Investigators say this case is not connected to the slaying of a Toronto woman whose dismembered remains turned up last month in Mississauga and Toronto.
Those body parts belonged to 41-year-old single mother Guang Hua Liu.
Her estranged boyfriend, Chun Qi Jiang, has been charged with second-degree murder in connection with the death and he is scheduled to appear in court later this month.

Calgary/Montreal trade rumours heating up?
We've all heard the Perrault for Gauthier trade rumor for weeks. Brought on by injuries to the Flame's roster, mostly centers, it seems that with the recent injury to Stephane Yelle for 4-6 weeks according to TSN then perhaps it might be the straw that breaks the trade deadlock. Even though Conroy is back after missing 19 games it might take a while for him to be back to what he was. To get his legs back and to see if he is 100% might be too long of a wait for Calgary management.
They are on course to make the play-offs and they don't need a slump now. SO...
Perrault could be a short term solution for them. I think with the right linemates he still has skills to help a team and everyone knows his face-off prowess is among the best in the league.
Gauthier, born in 1976, he is just entering a D-Man's prime and he has the size and nastiness that would go well with a young Canadien defence.
So, we move Perrault for Gauthier but do we package some D to go with it? What would it be? Rivet? Boulion? Do we care if Quintal finishes in Montreal, after all we just got him back. Calgary's loss could be Montreal's chance to dump some players for Gauthier and prospects or picks.
What would it take for this deal to happen?

The Colts Authority:
Reggie Wayne,
Dallas Clark,
Brody Eldridge,
Andrew Luck,
Coby Fleener
TEAMS: Indianapolis Colts, Stanford Cardinal
TEAMS: Indianapolis Colts, Stanford Cardinal
Pro Football Weekly (via Paul Kuharsky) says the Colts need receivers badly:
The Colts wisely re-signed Reggie Wayne to give Luck a consistent and dependable target, but they need to add another player who can work outside the numbers. Wayne, 33, is not a deep threat at this stage of his career and a field stretcher is sorely needed to keep defenses honest. Following the release of Dallas Clark, and the free-agency departure of Jacob Tamme to Denver, the Colts are left with just 2010 fifth-rounder Brody Eldridge at tight end. When healthy — and that hasn't been often in his first two seasons — Eldridge can be an above-average blocker, but he has totaled just 14 catches.
They're right about needing viable targets but I disagree that wideout is the biggest need. Andrew Luck wasn't blessed with great receivers at Stanford. Instead he targeted tight end Coby Fleener frequently in the deep game. Still, the point remains that it is a relatively poor idea to pick a QB first overa...

The stories that have encircled the 2012-2013 NBA season for the New Orleans Hornets have been the emergence of rookie Anthony Davis, the three-point shooting of Ryan Anderson, and the saga that comes with the enigmatic Eric Gordon. However, one thing that's been overlooked for New Orleans is how solid 32-year-old veteran Roger Mason Jr. has played for the Hornets in limited minutes, particularly with his shooting efficiency.
Mason is in his ninth season in the NBA and has bounced around the league, playing for six different teams over his career including two separate stints with the Washington Wizards. Given that résumé, it's not hard to believe that he hasn't had the most successful of runs in the Association.
For his career, Mason has appeared in just 484 games and has averaged just 18.1 minutes per game. He's also averaged just 6.6 points, 1.8 rebounds and 1.3 assists per game and has shot just 41 percent from the field from his career. His most impressive career-statistic is easily that he's maintained a three-point percentage of 38.4.
As a member of the Hornets this season, Mason hasn't been a focal-point of their team, playing just 18.1 minutes per game. He's also averaging just 5.7 points, two rebounds and one assist per game this year. However, what's most impressive about this season for Mason is that he's shooting a career-high 45.2 percent from the field and has the second-highest three-point percentage of his career, shooting 41.8 percent.
By no means is Mason looking like an All-Star or getting noticed by everyone in the league. However, he's been a valuable player for the struggling Hornets this season because he's been able to come off the bench and make shots with relatively solid efficiency. It may not be much, but it's been helpful for the Hornets.
