We walked down from our marina to eat at a restaurant farther in on Bay Street and discovered that it wasn't open on Sunday, so we walked across the street and ate here. It was very crowded because it is popular, but we got there early so we got in without too much difficulty.

From the Hyperspec entry for DIRECTORY: | Determines which, if any, files that are present in the file system | have names matching PATHSPEC, and returns a fresh list of pathnames | corresponding to the truenames of those files. "truename" is an implementation-dependent concept; SBCL defines the truename of a broken or circular symlink to be the link itself (mostly so that DIRECTORY won't signal an error in such cases). Further, DIRECTORY removes duplicates after truename resolution. So because "c" points to "a", it appears that "c" is being omitted from the output; if "c" pointed to some file in another directory, the result would be less confusing. > Do I have to switch to (sb-posix:opendir) if I want to see "c" also? Maybe not: a few months ago SBCL's DIRECTORY was extended to take a keyword argument :RESOLVE-SYMLINKS, which, if false, inhibits symlink resolution. Good luck, Richard

I am amazed at the previous reviews. Did those people ever taste fish and chips. The fish was ok compared with the greasiest chips I have had for years. Those chips would be thrown away in Oxford and most towns in the UK.

Love, love, love the Halibut dinner. Wigan pier has great pies as well. Authentic British fish and chips which are not greasy but with a crisp and crunchy batter.
This place does fish and chips the right way. Better than a lot of the fish and chips I tried in England. Price point is very good as well. Located behind Extra Foods. If you have a craving for f&c then go here, you will not be disappointed.
Ate at the Wigen Pier this evening with wife and two kids. Ordered two large plates of cod and chips which arrived with a piece of fish was large and filling. Chips were tasty and crispy. Fish batter was good but came apart from the fish a little too easily. Atmosphere is casual and family friendly decorated in pub style... More

If you are looking for fish and chips, this is the place to go. The fish had a great batter and was cooked perfectly. The fries were... wow. I ate them all and I rarely do that. Service was fine. The outdoor patio was perfect for us on a sunny day.
The best restaurant in Squamish by far is The Wigan Pier. Yummy fish and chips, mushy peas, and great coleslaw. It is always consistently good. Pina is a great waitress. She is always friendly and knows all the locals. She works hard and yet always makes time to talk with the customers. Truly, great service. A little gem in Squamish... More
It is a quaint location and the inside decor is totally British right down to the telephone booth in the corner. If you want to have more just stop by the take out of home fresh and frozen products.
My wife and I took a drive on the Sea to Sky Highway and made a point to stop at Wigan Pier due to reviews we had read. We were not disappointed. Go to Chili's or Ruby Tuesdays if you want, but the best food is many times served at little places like this. GREAT fish and chips in a... More

The 13 Funniest Video Game Deaths of All Time
Death is no laughing matter, except when things explode at the right time, bitches literally cause heart attacks and princesses get crushed by cows. From Red Dead Redemption's hang glider, to the best fatalities in gaming, here are the greatest funny deaths in video game history... so far. NOTE: these deaths are all caused by actual, intended gameplay and don't include cool tricks or possibilities in sandbox games (otherwise a GTA Helicopter fall totally would've been in here.)
- 1
Spider-Man 3 Game - Fire Escape
- 2
Killer Instinct - B00bz
Killer Instinct is an insanely fun fighting game that featured some of the most memorable characters in fighting game history. The game was one of those post-Mortal-Kombat games that tried hard to be gory and even included fatalities, but actually kind of pulled it off (Primal Rage, anyone?)BUY @ AMAZON
One of the memorable characters in this game was called B. Orchid. Ostensibly the protagonist in this game, her full name is Black Orchid, but they shortened it to B. for God only knows what reason. Probably so that the "B" could stand for "boobs."
Why? Well, her most popular fatality (for the uninitiated, a fatality is a "finishing move" that you do in fighting games when your opponent has already lost and is standing there like a shy dancer at a wedding who is blackout drunk waiting for you to kill them with one last move... with a unique combination of buttons you can pull off really cool finishing moves, or "fatalities") is the one shows in the video here. Basically, she flashes her bitches to the opponent until that opponent has a heart attack.
Apparently every single character in Killer Instinct is a virgin and has never seen a woman's bitches before (this was before the internet, you see.) They also have insanely weak hearts and need to eat better... which I guess explains why all of them are angry enough to want to fight all the time.
The boob-jiggle bounce at the end really doesn't help her gender, but hey, who's the target audience.
(Un?)fortunately, B. Orchid flashes her opponents away from the camera, which is probably a good thing. Because if she didn't then all of our hearts would explode. Talk about a heartbreaker, right? Amirite ladies? Really? Nobody? I'll be here all week, tip your Internet Service Provider. - 3
Gears of War - It Keeps Jayuhmming, * :'( *
During one of the more early fights in Gears of War that actually hammers in the idea that 'THIS IS NOT HALO, HIDE BEHIND EVERYTHING', the writers decided to make a character die just to alert you that a sniper is a-comin'.BUY @ AMAZON
Anthony Carmine follows you for a bit and then decides to get caught up on his awesome chainsaw gun and how it doesn't work that well at that second... and then hilarity ensues. Why? Once again, the hilarity of this moment is attributed to the comic timing of the death after the dialogue. It's all pacing, people... but why is it funny?
What makes this one of the funniest deaths in video game history is the fact that he sounds like an insolent child when he's delivering his lines. This actually might have been kind of a tragic death if it wasn't for the voice actor's decision to make the huge, burly, macho guy character sound like a kid whose brand new Super Soaker just broke on the way home.
Watch the video for a clip of the biggest wimp in Gears of War dying. - 4
Space Quest 1 - Pretty Much Every Death
Although a lot (most) of the Space Quest games feature some of the funniest deaths in gaming history, Space Quest 1 did it first. Space Quest 1 is a comedy game that came out in 1986 and featured a space janitor named Roger Wilco. His mission: truth, justice and really clean floors."BUY @ AMAZON
Roger Wilco would essentially Mr. Magoo himself through his adventures and end up saving the world, often without even trying to. Wilco is depicted as kind of a loser (because he's a janitorial technician) and often dies in ways that were obviously meant to be discovered. He dies so much in the game because the developers were trying to make you laugh.
Check out a montage of the funniest deaths from the first game, Space Quest 1.
BONUS: notice how some of the deaths are also funny because of that comedic timing element. The fact that this guy really can't catch a break is really hammered into the player by how many times, and in how many different ways, he dies throughout the game. Absolute comic/slapstick brilliance. - 5

Anderson, Chris. "The Long Tail." Wired Magazine Issue 12.10. October 2004. < http://www.wired.com/wired/archive/12.10/tail.html>
Chris Anderson's article "The Long Tail" (later expanded into a book) introduces the idea of the growing importance of the Long Tail in the way that media is marketed on the internet. It posits that the internet has allowed for a new profitability of the non-"hit" 80% of entertainment product (books, music, DVDs). Ultimately, he argues that the incorporation of the Long Tail into business and marketing models has been advantageous for the entertainment industry, the consumer, and for "culture" as a whole.
The concept of the rising profitability of the Long Tail is a major one in any argument regarding new music marketing on the internet. The Long Tail model is a fundamental example of the way that online consumption of media has changed (and, it is argued, improved) the music industry as a whole. Since 2004, when Anderson first coined his Long Tail idea, we have seen the effects of Amazon, Netflix, and iTunes's feedback mechanisms for identifying taste and suggesting a focus on less-popular items. Clearly, the exploitation of the Long Tail by these distributors proves the profitability of internet-specific marketing models. Further, I believe that the growth of the Long Tail model has been a taste-making mechanism in the generations that have embraced these internet vendors—not only has the use of the Long Tail shaped marketing initiatives, but it has changed the way the consumer defines their own taste.


text: I always took great pride in my handwriting, even many years before I started using a computer regularly. I still regularly write longhand in my journals and other offline writing. I don't think everyone still has to write that way, or learn cursive, though. In fact, I kind of like the idea of it becoming a more esoteric art form.

Gayoom for presidency in 2013
Article Tools
DRP's next national congress is the most important event a lot of people are waiting for. The Congress will elect party leader, by default its presidential candidate as well and other key officials for a new term. They will be given an arduous task to fulfill, a formidable target to reach. That is winning the presidential election in 2013. This would mean election of the leader of DRP will be the most crucial issue of the Congress.
DRP was a creation of former President Gayoom who is also the first elected leader of the party. DRP is now the main opposition following the defeat of President Gayoom in the first multi-party presidential election held in October 2008 under the new Constitution. President Mohamed Nasheed, the leader and key founding member of the ruling MDP won the election and made history by becoming the first democratically elected President of Maldives.
Some people thought former President Gayoom would leave politics and his party after losing the last election. In effect, most people still do not understand how Mr. Gayoom could have claimed for the right of seeking a further term of office after he has served 6 five year terms. But the new independent Election Commission did not find difficult to understand what is stipulated in the new Constitution, that no person can serve as president for more than 2 five year terms under the new Constitution. Thus the Commission ruled Gayoom has the Constitutional right to serve another 2 terms.
Many think Gayoom would finally depart politics after the next Congress hands over power to a new leader. The law on the immunities and benefits to be provided to a former president has also finally been enacted after Gayoom waiting long for it. Thanks for the generous package it provided.
In a recent general meeting of DRP, Gayoom has hinted on rejuvenating the party and handing over helm to Deputy Thasmeen. Gayoom must be grateful to Thasmeen for donating magnanimous financial support to the party in times of need. Though Gayoom has hinted so, there are also rumors of widening rifts in the party over leadership. According to some sources, there are several powerful members who are not happy to see Thasmeen becoming leader. There are also many top members who favor Thasmeen and who want DRP to recapture its past glory under him. Some old guards and faithful however feel only Gayoom can lead DRP to power. This feeling has grown stronger since Gayoom was named personality of the year in a DhiFM survey.
People close to the former president reveal more sensational news that the former President is more than confident of winning the big post again. According to insiders, there is a group who are certain that Gayoom is the only leader capable of ousting President Nasheed in 2013. Thus DRP seems to have been buried in a deep power struggle and many among them believe only Gayoom can save the party from deep divide. At the same time some prominent members are openly campaigning for change. They feel Gayoom had enough and there is no future for DRP if he remained leader.
There is also another interesting story about a family quarrel over Gayoom successor. Reliable sources say most members of the family want Gayooms youngest son Ghassan to succeed him, while few of them strongly support his eldest daughter Dunya to continue the dynastic succession. Former President Gayoom has strongly advocated for a woman president in the Maldives.
Whether some of these stories are true or not, it has become increasingly difficult to believe that Gayoom will give up power when he feels there is growing support for him. There are rumors that some faction of DRP has endorsed Gayoom as DRP leader for life. This story is spreading fast and it seems there are powerful attempts to endorse Gayoom as Leader for Life in the upcoming DRP Congress in February this year. If this happens Gayoom will automatically be DRP presidential candidate in 2013. In a very recent TV interview, when Gayoom was asked if he would contest in 2013, he said he will not comment.
But winning the election does not appear to be as easy as the popularity survey. Though the ruling MDP has pursued some unpopular policies and programs which have seemingly reduced their popularity for the time being, the sustainability and positive outcome of these programs is likely to muster much support for President Nasheed eventually. MDP Government will use all their tactics and energies to win a second term.

HeHeHeHeHe. We don't want to give a narrow chance to former dictator to become our President.It is not allowed under the new constitution. It is those who Gayyoom has appointed,to the Election Commission, beleive that he can contest for Presidency. The "BOYS" can pass a ruling allowing him to contest again. But definitely not present Commission. Specially Fuad Thaufeeq, the Chair of the Commission and ex-husband of Ms. Fathimath Riza.Remember we have had a time where MILKMAID is banned in our country.
He have served us for 30 years unconstitutionaly (6 terms of 5 years). So under the new constitution he will not be able to stand for the election.We have thrown him out of the power.Not again dear.We have sufered enough under your (dictatorship)rule.Enough is enough.
I think Gayyoom should fight for DRP leadership. If not, one of his kids should be the DRP leader. They will be the easiest for Anni to defeat. Anyone else will make things difficult for Anni.
Hell with the dictator. No way the maldivians are ever goin to elect him as the president AGAIN.
who isnt a dictator when appointed in higher positions,even with our new president he has already started the tyranny which maumoon left…..speaking abt that commission n fuad thaufeeq,hes one of the hell ball who swings to the both sides like the former commissioner mohamed ibrahim (hell with them) and MR.GAXIM… let me remind u that it wasnt gayyom who led all the Bangladeshi here ,it was ppl like u who cldnt lift ur own ***** from one place to another and ppl like u who are ashamed to go throw ur own ****… so be thankful to the bang boys for cleaning up ur **** and making ur women happy ……..he he he
Great article. I would like to see more articles like this more often in miadhu. There is noway for gayyoom or even thasmeen to become the leader in this nation.
Let Maumoon run for presidency. But he doesn't have a chance to win the election. Just to save party unity, if Maumoon came on the way to stop the educated youth (such as Dr. Mausoom, Thasmeen Ali, Hamdhoon Hameed, Ghassan Maumoon,Dr. Ibrahim Hassan…etc),then most of the educated who signed up for DRP due to educated youth will defect to other parties (mainly to MDP), giving MDP a clear majority in the parliament as well as a clear win in 2013.
Sources close to Maumoon told me that he was to step down from the post of Zaeemu in the DRP congress. But it seems the man is too hungry for power and that 30 years is not enough to lead the country.
Its time for Maumoon to focus on Hereafter and do useful things like contributing to build Mosques,…etc. But, his reluctance to attend Friday Prayer (which is Wajib for all Muslim men) indicates his intentions in this life and his "love" for Islam.
He has also rejected the teachings of Quran several times, do not believe in the second coming of Isa Alaihiy Salaam either…does not believe that Dhajjal will come…etc. -
People of Maldives will elect qayyoom as a next president if Qayoom is elected as DRP leader. But I dont think Qayoom will be interested to contest for anothe r term. Anyway, we will not not allow this country be either under christian missionaries or wahabbizm. We will save this drowning nation. Its our religous duty.
FAAL.. Maumoon is the leader of the Christian missionary in Maldives and he has received the honour of GCMG (Grand Cross of Saint Michael and Saint George) and the first propagation centre of Christianity was Theemuge.
Maumoon is someone who does not believe in Quran and claims that gold is Halal for Muslim men, wearing Hijab is optional for Muslim women, refuses the second coming of Isa (Alaiyhiy Salaam), does not believe that Dhajjal will appear and Gog and Magog (Yajooj and Maujooj),…etc. His belief is farthest from Islam and leans more towards Christianity.
Yet people like you see Maumoon as a Saint and Saviour for Islam. But the fact of the matter is, he promotes Maumoonism – what he says is truth and there is no Quran or Sunnah for him. -
I will be happy if Maumoon becomes the DRP Zaeemu. Only then he can be humiliated once again by Anni. As if the humiliation he faced due to his defeat was not enough.
Believe or not Maumoon is still the most popular leader in this country. he was the most favorable leader among those six in first round of last election. no one can deny this. the truth is Anni is an activist he only knows manage street fight and strikes he has no knowledge to govern the country at all.
Hussain, it is going to be fun to see Maumoon elected as the leader of DRP again. I wish, Maumoon gets elected or rather selected by DRP because DRP is more like a family business. Maumoon is to hold throne again and next one is Maumoon and the after is going to be Maumoon too. It is funny though,having run for presidency in 2008, claiming he has not been president under the new constitution and now taking money only eligible for a president who has completed two terms under the very constitution he claimed he has never been president. The hypocracy speaks volume I guess. And there are people who would just accept defeat at some point in time and does not believe that he or she must be the winner in presidential elections to all the way to sports and poetry amongst other things.
When Mr Maumoon lost in 2008, his own party (DRP)'s election commissioner Mr Mohamed Ibrahim is sidelined because Mohamed Ibrahim made Maumoon to lose? That also in the fairest election Maldives had ever seen?Now Mr Yamin is threatening DRP with only 7 members in parliament representing PA because his 7 votes will decide which way issues will end? Of course, Yamin is not going to take sides with MDP. Yet Yamin of PA is the most influencial person for DRP's internal politics? I would like to have a good laugh thinking about all this. O people, think think think and support Maumoon if tyranny is what we need or if dictator is preferred to freedom.
Sorry abt that comment , I beleive Anni has done a good job in the past year comparing to Maumoons 30 years. What a fool i was to accuse him of arranging street fights. Sorry abt my comment
Thanks for you all for your comments. This is not a right action and a right time to write articles as it results the afflictions as rain drops to your home roofs. Are we in a state of abyss of ignorance??? America is the mother proponent of capitalism in name of democracy; Russia is the proponent of the Socialism in name of democracy. China promotes the communism in name of democracy. If democracy is defined as people or public rule, the democratic states have been given birth as republics. Amin and his followers have changed the Maldives as republic state. Nasir have restored it, Maumoon have conserved the system, and presently Naseed is continuing is a so called modernize system. Something they did or left may have caused a particular result. The thing we have to do is to analyze the scenarios more than now we do. We have to determine the strengths, weakness we have and opportunities and threats we have. And we have to have good plan on a realistic time frame. Even in current regime there are many concerns that are to be taken into reconsideration. In all most every government they review their policies and determines whether it befits of not.
Moreover, we don't have to rely on our ideas rather than facts. And the facts also should something be reliable. Also if we week a judge (Author) from one of two or more contradictory parties, we will not seek justice any more…….. Lets learn being a Maldivian that every one is innocent until proven guilty…….. -
if only the blind ppl can see whats happening now……
we have nothing and ppl are getting more dictatod now coz most feel ashamed of the change that has come now….. yeah for ppl who use the madicine they use mite be good coz u are also using the same but for us who dont want it… for the ppl who love peace who want freedom now its more like jailed in our own country even anni dont follow the rules which is made….. -
No.. i changed my mind again.. maumoon is great
Mamun was the greatest president in the history of Maldives. He developed the country and secured its identity as a Muslim country.
When he (unfortunately) did not win in the 2008 presidential election, look what happened to the country and its peace and harmony during Nasheed's period.
If you really love Maldives, you should bring Mamun back to power.
The rule "President should serve only for two terms of 5 years" has no basis in Qur'aan and Hadees.
Being a country of Islamic faith, that rule should be amended. And a president should be able to serve the country as long as he plays fair in the election and does his job. -
Yea, maumoon is great.. It is not him that makes things worse at the time he was president.. the parliment or the people who work with him was not good enough.. how can he dive under every single thing..it is not possible..
now the president who u ppl calling, is one big fellow who did everything worse. still he is not fulfilled. now using gangs and blaming oppsitions.. i don't know what's wrong with Nasheed. DRAMA QUEEN…. -
We do not want to go to past and repeat the same game.
It doesn't matter who gets elected .. it boils down to the fact that we have no leaders who really love the beautiful nation, Rep. of Maldives. Everyone is so greedy.. trying to fill their pockets in the shortest of time.
I would like to bring to the attention of all the maldivian people…what simply seems to have escaped their rational understanding: it is under the regime of Mr Gayoom that Male was built without any cityplaning, hence has become a cubic maze and a nightmare to live in, also an estimate 30′000 people's lives are being destroyed by their drug addiction. People don't turn addicts over night. How could tons of drugs enter Male? A drug addict is forced to be a criminal. Every drug addict's mother is bound to suffer from depression, the rest of the family, too. So that is our private life! How could politics, THE PUBLIC LIFE then possibly function? Why don't we agree that our nation is doomed like were the native indians. In the process of being destroyed by the greed of a few and the blindness and fear of many? WHO is responisible for this CHAOS?
Assalamu aliakum every one.
Before you decide dictatorship or democracy analyze carefully who did what for the country. During the period did the country prosper or thrown in turmoil and disturbance. Were Islamic values respected or insulted? According to Islamic principles "Khilafah is the ultimate not democracy. Please analyze, think twice them comment. -
Dear Maldivian people, we stay many time in maldives and I think have Gayoom as president again is not a good idea. He is a dictator and is not a good man for you country.
The Maldives must look in front with new people and new idea and not have Gayoom or Gasim in the government… -
wow !! what a stupid idea to get gayoom back to power !! he has stolen the money of maldives and stored else where for his future genrations . He ruled maldives rather ruined to rubble …for 30 yrs.he is indirectly promoting GMR to take over the country . He recently met GMR the chairman of GMR group where he was given 5 million us dollars as party fund ..where is the money ??
Dont do the mistake again

Torbay Warm and Well grant welcomed
Posted: November 29, 2012
|News of a grant from the Department of Health's Warm
Homes Healthy People fund has been welcomed by Torbay Council's Deputy Mayor
Cllr David Thomas.
The council's "Torbay Warm and Well" bid to the
fund has resulted in it being awarded a grant of £61,752.
The aim of the funding is to:
* deliver energy efficiency and heating improvements to
the most vulnerable people
* ensure better public awareness of the impacts of cold
* provide staff and volunteers with fuel poverty/cold
weather awareness training
Cllr Thomas, whose portfolio includes strategic
responsibility for housing, said: "We are extremely grateful to the
Department of Health for its decision to make this one-off payment after
recognising that our bid met the criteria.
"The intention is to work in partnership with Age UK
Torbay to set up a crisis fund over the winter period providing grants to help
protect vulnerable people in Torbay. This will focus upon heating systems to
ensure those most vulnerable have the ability to keep warm this winter.
"For example, an elderly person living on limited
means might suffer a heating boiler breakdown during cold weather and simply
cannot afford to pay for repairs.
"We would then be able to use money from the crisis
fund to help foot the repair bill.
"Training will also be offered to community groups
and community partnerships to provide advice to others on how to keep warm this
winter and lower energy bills.
"We recognise these are tough times for many
vulnerable people across the Bay. It is vital that we do everything we can do
to provide financial support where appropriate, and this Government grant is a
welcome funding boost."

app store finds
Today I Came across a new (to me) website. "TapFancy is a showcase for the very best in iPhone and iPod Touch application design." Browsing through it, I saw two apps that I hadn't heard of yet that really caught my attention: Reeder and Best Exit.
I found both apps to look exceptional after just a little time with them, and worth looking at, even if only to see the design.
Reeder is definitely the cleanest feed reader I've seen. It syncs with Google Reader. I actually might use it, which is more than I can say for any of the other mobile feed readers I've tried. It's definitely the best attempt to date.
Best Exit is just plain awesomeness. Picture this: you're on the highway, and want to find the next exit with food/gas/hotel/etc.? This shows you all upcoming exits, their distance, the services available. You can even drill into each exit to find what restaurants/stations/etc. are available, and get more detailed information and directions. The idea is very well executed. It works just as you'd expect.
Both apps are impressive, and well worth a few bucks. Check 'em out.

You are currently browsing the monthly archive for May 2012.
It has been a while since I shared any pictures of what we've been cooking and eating at home recently, so I thought I would look back through my albums and share some with you all. Following on from my post about cutting out cheese temporarily for health reasons, this has now been extended to a lot more things, specifically wheat, sugar, and yeast. It has been a challenge recently, but I hope I will get to the point where I am happy to share more with you.
So here's some of the food we've been making and eating during April and May…
Sorrel, fresh garlic and white asparagus frittata
This was inspired by watching an episode of Two Greedy Italians where they met an elderly lady who knew all the wild herbs and plants growing around her mountain home. She picked some wild greens and made a kind of frittata, popping the cooked greens through a mouli first to remove the tough bits.
I don't think my sorrel had many tough bits, but being rather short in both supply and knowledge of wild greens, I wanted to try out the idea anyway. It was great fun mouli-ing the sorrel and then mixing into my beaten eggs.
We'd not tried white asparagus before, but it was available in our organic grocery – I sliced peeled the outside, sliced them in half, blanched them and then laid them on top of my fritttata. Topped with a dollop of raw basil pesto (this stuff is amazing and I live off it at the moment) it was pretty tasty.
Lemony garlic baked chicken with rice, asparagus and leftover aioli
We have finally found some time to spend in our garden and on our allotment. Being there is one of the most peaceful times, I find myself with an empty, calm mind and it's blissful.
We are trying to do little by little at the moment rather than our usual tendency to over-exert ourselves one day and not come back for weeks. We have got some bark chippings down to mark out four beds and have started to plant in some seedlings.
These peas I've grown from seed – I'm just hoping the bunnies or slugs don't munch on them.

Abilene's First Ever High Heel Dash to Benefit Children's Miracle Network in Pictures
The first ever 'High Heel Dash' to benefit Children's Miracle Network (CMN) in Abilene this past Saturday (April 13th, 2013) was a lot of fun. All of the guys that ran in high heels were good sports about it, some even dressing the part. As for the ladies, many that raced brought their game faces and some even camped out by the starting line. Nonetheless, when the Mayor started the race, all eyes were fixed on every runner.

A home of their own
SYCAMORE — For Kelli Larsen, Sunday, Oct. 21 was a dream come true.
After a full year of spending every Saturday rebuilding a house on Roosevelt Court in Sycamore, Larsen was finally able to call a house a home after years of renting. It was a gift she always wanted to give her 14-year-old son Keagon and 21-year-old son Eathon, who has yet to see his new home because he is in South Korea with the military.
"It's been an adventure," Larsen said of building a home with volunteers from Habitat for Humanity. "The hearts of many have really been in this house and it has a lot of memories already."

Sample "Flavors of My World"
Sample Chapter: Japan
It's funny how some memories stick with us, while others seem to easily slip away. One of my most distinct recollections from childhood is the day when we as a family stood side-by-side and bid farewell to my father as he set off on a business trip to Japan.
That day, it was only my imagination that accompanied him, but it was his rapid return that is the highlight of this emotional landmark, as we were all quickly and forever reminded that we were never far from his thoughts. Like a messenger with a critical note, he quickly got down to business as he dazzled us with exciting stories of his journey. Thankfully, these stories were accompanied by exquisite pictures that spoke of a land so foreign and exciting, it seemed as if he was recounting a dream. To no one's surprise, the story that most resonated with me, was that of an unusual food culture—unlike any he had ever experienced. This is where my fascination with Japanese food began and this was my first introduction to the world of sushi.
Since that time, I have discovered that sushi actually evolved from very meager beginnings over 1300 years ago. Fast forward to the 1980s when in the wake of an increased health conscious population, this seemingly unusual cuisine rocketed to popularity and has become not only an American favorite, but one of the healthiest dining options available.
A truly globally embraced culinary art form, these curiously adventurous and tasty creations are now so eagerly consumed, that they can be found in the most elegant of settings, or even at the local supermarket. The passion for this delicate cuisine has truly hit the mainstream, as there is just something that sushi lovers swear, is most deliciously addictive.
Sukiyabashi Jiro, Tokyo's famed 10-seat sushi temple, is a great example of how sushi inspires individuals around the world. This is the kind of restaurant that global epicurean travelers book months in advance and will thankfully travel thousands of miles to experience. There has even been a widely released documentary film produced about this honored sushi master and his unusually tiny restaurant that boasts the coveted three Michelin stars.
Chefs from all over the world have fused local ingredients into this culinary expression, including the ever popular 'California Roll,' featuring avocado and crabmeat. As in art, sushi continues to grow, change and blossom and each culture initiates their own unique spin on this ancient craft.
This passage was excerpted from the first draft of "Flavors Of My World," available in bookstores beginning April 20, 2013 and currently available for purchase online.
In support of their book, Flavors of My World (Favorite Recipes Press; May 1, 2013), James Beard Award Winning Celebrity Chef and judge of Food Networks's hit show Chopped, Maneet Chauhan and co-author, Daily food & Wine Founder and Jetset Magazine Travel Editor, Doug Singer will be conducting a 21 city book tour.
Launching in their home city of New York, they will be traveling on a classic "Rock Star" tour bus as they make their way across the country and at each stop they will be facilitating book signings, "One Night Only" restaurant events (where they will be partnering with a high-caliber local chef), and a ProStart cooking competition. To make it even more exciting, they will be capturing everything on film for a reality television show.
ProStart, the non-profit arm of the National Restaurant Association has 1700 locations across the country and is benefiting over 100,000 high school aged students. Their mission is to educate them in culinary arts and hospitality, ultimately certifying them and giving them the skills they need to get jobs in a competitive workplace. In each city, the top three ProStart students will compete in a classic cooking competition where they will have 40 minutes to create a healthy entree that is indicative of a contemporary American cuisine. The winner will receive a set of elusive Gunter Wilhelm Executive Series knives, a favorite of professional chefs worldwide. Additionally, the top three ProStart student finalists will experience firsthand the thrill of taking center stage at NRA show 2013 and the ProStart National Champion will also win additional prizes, and the honor of traveling to Washington, D.C., where they will spend the day cooking with one of the featured chefs of the White House Chef Tour. ™

Ever since NAD's Modular Design Concept (MDC) A/V receivers were first announced, I've wanted to review one, and now the moment has arrived. I've just received, unpacked and installed NAD's second-from-the-top model, the T775 and have begun listening to it in The Perfect Vision Audio Lab, and I'll share some first impressions in just a moment. But first, let me provide some background.
For those unfamiliar with the concept, NAD's MDC initiative involves several very good ideas whose time has surely come.
First, the MDC concept is driven by the notion that technology is evolving very rapidly and not always in predictable directions. Some manufacturers respond to this problem with a shotgun-like, "let's-include-everything-but-the-kitchen-sink" design approach, but NAD has what I think is a better idea. NAD's idea is that the only way make an expensive A/V component "future proof" (or at least relatively future proof) is to make it easy to update, not just on a firmware but also on a hardware level, in the years to come. Accordingly, NAD has designed its MDC-series receivers with two modular bays or computer-style card slots—one for installing circuit modules that provide critical video processing circuitry and the other for audio processing modules. Imagine the freedom and piece of mind that this gives prospective buyers.
Suppose, just for the sake of argument, that two years from now Dolby and DTS both come up with new über-CODECs that introduce a hypothetical digital audio format that offers twice the sampling rate of today's highest resolution format (i.e., 384kHz/24-bits). Naturally, no present day A/V receiver would be ready to handle those CODECs, nor would one have the requisite 384/24 capable DACs. For most home theater enthusiasts, the solution would a loud groan, followed by plans to sell off one's "old" AVR in order to buy a new one that's ready for the new CODECS. But for owners of NAD's MDC receivers, the situation would be much different. For them, the game plan would simply be to wait until NAD released a new audio module that supports these hypothetical new CODECs and their attendant 384kHZ/24-bit digital audio files. Then, at his or her leisure, the NAD owner could buy the new module and have it installed (probably along with a firmware update of some kind) by their local NAD dealer. There would be no need to replace the entire receiver, because the MDC approach would allow the owner to replace only those parts that really required updating.
The same situation applies vis-à-vis video updates. We are, for example, on the cusp of some sort of 3DTV revolution, though none of us can be sure exactly what direction(s) upcoming developments may take. But no matter what happens, buyers of NAD receivers with MDC features should be able move forward with confidence, secure in the knowledge that—if 3DTV takes off as manufacturers hope—NAD will be able to produce a new video module that incorporates whatever unique technical twists and accommodations 3DTV might happen to require.
A second point that's worth noting is that NAD's MDC concept takes into account the fact that different enthusiasts may have very different priorities, which is why it's a wonderful thing that NAD has put its video and audio circuitry on separate modules. In my experience, some home theater enthusiasts are video mavens first and audiophiles second, others invert the order (audio first and video second), and still others care passionately about both sides of the equation. The beauty of the MDC concept is that you decide which (if any) upgrades you want, and when to install them. Now that's my kind of future proofing.
To give you a quick snapshot of the T775, let me quote directly from NAD's press release, which has this to say.
"The T 775 AV Receiver includes the new AM 200 and VM 100 MDC Modules. Like The T 785 HD, the T 775 HD boasts dual 32-bit Aureus 7.1 high-speed DSPs by Texas Instruments, Audyssey's MultEQ XT, Dynamic EQ and Dynamic Volume; decoding for Dolby True HD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD Master Audio."
"The T 775 HD employs the latest version HDMI 1.3 Repeater from Analog Devices. All input resolutions up to 1080p are fully supported at the output as well as cross conversion of legacy analog formats. All existing analog inputs are also available for up-conversion to HDMI output. Deep Color and xvYCC Expanded Color Space are supported to fully realize the highest possible video resolutions, now and for the foreseeable future. The NAD T 775's HDMI repeater also generates an on-screen display (OSD), and de-interlaces standard-definition legacy formats."
I DO HAVE THA nad t 85 AND LOVE IT.
I have an older Nad receiver and dvd player and the remote has the same issues as you pointed out.
Will not go through glass doors on my equipment cabinet and with the doors open still have to poit right at it as well as bee withing 10 to 12 ffeet. My friend has a newer model than mine and again same issue.
Yes indeed. My older NAD has the same remote problem, but that's just it. Otherwise works perfectly. It's not only the NAD products that have this remote issue. I am planning to change the older NAD receiver with a newer one, once I get my reward money from ez saver, and I think I am going to sty with NAD.
Remote: I have a T775, and the remote angle is not an issue. I can pretty much point the remote any which way, and the receiver just picks up the bouncing signals.
MDC: And damn... I just wanted to upgrade the Audio (AM200), but to get all the features I at least needed to upgrade to the smallest video also (VM100). I'm putting a hold on upgrades until a module supporting HDMI 1.4 and 3D is getting out.
Digital inputs: No digital connection without a delay on the input. Every time a new stream starts, about 0.2 seconds is cut. This is only a problem on digital inputs, and is definitely NOT fixed in upgrades, rather the reverse. On the other hand, If You don't upgrade, the firmware You risk having great ugly pops and crackles in your speakers. This is mostly experienced when playing blu-ray, and the change from one type of audio to another is happening. Use of analogue for CD fixes this, and is not an extremely big issue on movies.
Sound: Mostly using the NAD curve for movies, but for pure stereo listening, all processing and redundant speakers can be disabled, which i like. Sound couldn't really be better for what I want to pay. If I wanted to pay more, then that's another matter...
Setup: Could use a few more source specifications. 0-9 is just not quite enough.
Why did I buy this receiver: Because at the time it did not do processing of video, but concentrated on sound. With the vm200 upgrade, the processing of video is also something this receiver has added to it's repertoire.
Conclusion: Very happy with the sound. At times I am just a little bit annoyed by the implementation.
To often have we seen modular future-proof designs that don't follow up on the promise of updating the hardware. Take the $2,000 high-end Denon's from around 8 years back. Modular, future-proof and worth about $200 on the used market today. It seems as if moduals are not echonomicaly viable. My $0.02 would be to to ask NAD how they expect to make money on future moduals and how often their echnomic model would let them make changes.

Chris Murphy, CIWM's deputy chief executive, said:
"When the fund was first announced last year, CIWM suggested that rather than focusing solely on the frequency of residual waste collection, it should focus on improving the whole service by supporting improvements in three key areas: recycling, food waste collections, and waste prevention initiatives. We are pleased to see that demonstrable environmental benefit is one of the three core criteria and that recycling and food waste collections fall under the scope of the fund."
"However, a number of claims made for the new fund are open to question, including the assertion that it will help to tackle "'bin blight' and the proliferation of bins". Frequency has little impact on the number of bins allocated to a household compared to the overall design of the collection service and subsequent treatment options, most of which are, and should remain, focused on recovering valuable materials from our waste and reducing the amount of residual waste that is sent to landfill.
"In the last decade, the UK has seen a phenomenal rise in recycling thanks to the efforts of local councils and householders. In the majority of cases, this has been achieved by investing in more convenient and well designed local recycling services to separate out a growing range of materials and we would not wish to see a fixation with frequency compromising the progress made so far in delivering high quality recycling.
"We are also surprised at the absence of any robust reporting, evaluation or monitoring requirements, which could have provided useful evidence and learning to inform future practice, and that, according to the prospectus, there is no intention to ring-fence grant payments from the fund."
CIWM is also reiterating its view that local decision making on waste should not be influenced or compromised by undue pressure from central government.
"Waste collection has, and should continue to be, a local decision, with councils able to design services that work for their residents and suit the particular needs of their area. It would be wholly inappropriate and contrary to the spirit of 'localism' for the Government to use this funding as a mechanism to push councils to make changes that are out of step with local views and needs.
"We must also remember that waste collection and disposal represents the third largest area of local authority spend, with costs, excluding capital investment, estimated to rise to £4.3 billion by 2014-151. There is, therefore, a clear limit on the level of support that this fund will be able to offer to councils."

Imagine saving $100,000 over the course of twenty years, let's say from 1980-2000. We would assume that person was smart by saving this amount of money. Well, what if I were to tell you that if you put $200,000 in the bank in 1980, it would only be worth $100,000 in 2000. Would we still assume that person did well putting that $200,000 in the bank? This is exactly what happens to people who are disciplined and save. $100,000 in 1980 could buy you what $210,000 would buy you in 2000 and $280,000 would buy you today. This is and example of inflation. How many people would actually see saving money as a negative? This makes it difficult for people to save for retirement unless they're getting a pretty good return on their investments just to keep up with inflation. The interesting thing is that this inflation rate is actually not that bad. In some countries where they have had extreme hyperinflation such as Zimbabwe the prices were doubling every few hours and the government just kept printing more. This led to the collapse of the Zimbabwe dollar and today they use currencies from other countries. Another example is the Weimar Republic which was Germany between 1921-1923 where the money was so devalued that people used it to burn to keep warm cause it was cheaper than buying wood. Many argue that this led to the rise of Adolf Hitler. Both of these countries are extreme examples of continuing the printing of money for many reasons, including the payment of debt. This is relevant to the United States because of what we continue to hear about quantitative easing by the Federal Reserve. As complex of a term as this is, it is simply a fancy way of saying the printing of money. I believe this continued printing of money can lead us down the road to increased inflation. Increasing exports is also another trigger; this means the devaluation of our currency. We are not increasing production, so the only other way to increase exports is to devalue our currency so other countries can buy more from us. I believe for the average American this is terrible because it leads to an incredible increase in prices. Just imagine if Monday you paid $5 for a sandwich and by Friday it costs $25. This has happened in other parts of the world and it has brought down entire economies. We need to pay our debt and stop the printing of money so this possibility doesn't become reality. The more discipline we have as a society, the better off we will be.

Collaboration with Todd Gronsdahl #tbt #2007
Sestina for Hooters
Some of it was expected— the girls,
in their Tamara panty hose— sickly orange
legs, the same color as the buffalo wings,
serving cheap beers to bores on sad afternoons.
We knew about the clichéd booty baring uniforms—
What we didn't expect were tables full of families.
Or the entire softball team, and their families,
eating like this was a place you should take little girls—
fake breasts parading in too tight uniforms,
people with bad taste swallowing piles of orange,
while they drink away their summer afternoons,
claiming, "I only come here for the wings."
As if by using the pathetic pretense of wings,
you could erase that fact that families
are not meant to spend their Sunday afternoons
in sexist chain restaurants, admiring girls
who have no problem being seen wearing orange
or working a job that requires hot pants as a uniform.
The iconic owl stares from each perky chest with uniform,
creepy, "O" eyes that seem to say, "eat more wings."
And suddenly, I feel like I'm being swallowed by orange.
A woman in a wheelchair smokes outside as families
stare plaster-eyed at football, ignoring the girls,
who don't even bother to flirt for tips in the afternoon.
We both agree that we've had better afternoons,
as we note the nuances of the Hooters uniforms
worn in the photos of the international pageant girls.
Your burger is so bad that you can't eat it, and perhaps wings
were actually the way to go. I mean, all of these families,
seem happy, their fingers and faces all slathered in orange.
And really, what's so bad about orange?
It's the color that adorns late summer afternoons
and recalls those lazy days spent outside with our families—
Except that this is not the shade of the uniform.
It's not even a lively hue that sometimes peppers parrot wings—
It's the unfortunate tint of a too tanned Jersey girl.
And I cannot accept this orange, even if it is a uniform.
It's like a bad Wings song blasting on a too hot afternoon—
Music adored by clichéd girls who feel rejected by their families.
Illustration/design I did for the new @myka9 & @factormusic LP, out Nov 13 on @fakefour
The trailer park simmers—
Mr. Pink slices
strips of darkness
by the crossroads.
A ranch hand scrambles,
marinating in trashy
love, wedged between
Jamaican breasts.
Republican jerks scratch
dirty puppies, drinking
before breakfast.
Sanchez brushes
against her skirt,
shredding tender fires.
Saturday's treats dip
Into delicious choices—
sugar or chocolate
monks or Democrats
hot or slow roasted.
Game of Thrones
Rainy day puddles,
mimosas in plastic cups—
sweet, crisp perfection
when waffle meets fried chicken—
addiction begins here.Two:
Dog birthday parties—
Terriers at two tables
eat treats beneath feet.
Pork chops compliment waffles—
Freddie's cures hangovers.
It was all pink bubbles—
evening forgets troubles, sometimes
they dissolve in his eyes.
Noodles twirl between rhymes like strands
of stray hair in her hands.
Hot broth warms, the crowd stands and waits,
a chef perfects his plates.
A macaroon creates surprise,
beautiful in bite size—
nutty flavors reprise and shine.
The finale divine—
a glass of rosé wine doubles.
Little Mexico
Kids bear roses
in the menu photo.
Margaritas only frozen.
Check slow.
"Fucking magnets, how do they work?"
There once was a deli whose menu had no corned beef
The lack of this sandwich caused us much grief
The psychedelic art on the walls was bad
The delicious marble rye made us glad
Flaming hearts and missing meats made our visit very brief!

So far, Prime Minister Stephen Harper's ideology-inspired of project of social and political engineering expresses itself most eloquently in three ways: the Conservatives' egregious assault on civil liberties; the metamorphosis of Canada into a petro-state; and militarization of both Canadian society and our foreign policy. We're yet to acknowledge how this project oppresses the "other" while empowering utopian idealists who believe that the eradication of minorities will cleanse their world of some perceived contamination.
In early June, Canada's white supremacists saluted Harper.

DTM championship leader Bruno Spengler topped the first free practice session of the weekend for Mercedes, ahead of last year's winner Martin Tomczyk.
Audi is expected to have the upper hand this weekend, and it started well by getting four cars in the top five. However, Spengler trumped them all with his final lap of the session. Tomczyk was the only 2009-spec Audi in the top five, and he managed second place despite having his best lap taken away for taking a short cut.
Behind him were the 2008-spec A4s of Mike Rockenfeller, Markus Winkelhock and Alexandre Premat, while David Coulthard was the second best Mercedes as he completed the top six.
The top 10 was rounded out by two Audis and two Mercedes. Oliver Jarvis headed Maro Engel, reigning champion Timo Scheider, and Force India Formula 1 test driver Paul di Resta.
Former champions Mattias Ekstrom and Gary Paffett just missed out on the top 10, ahead of the two stars of the last event.
Norisring polesitter Ralf Schumacher was only 13th, while the race winner from one month ago, Jamie Green, was next up in 14th in his 2008-spec Mercedes.
