...which is absolutely, positively NOT a reason for brutality on the part of the police. THAT'S THE WHOLE POINT.
I've just found out that one of my best friends was down there and saw the whole thing. He said Mattingly is lying.
To those who keep saying that the guy was drunk: It's the Police report that states that, not the guy himself. People who were with him at the time say he was not drunk. And look at the mug shot—do you see red, bloodshot eyes? NO.
And to those who are clamoring for the video(s): No doubt, they're being held until they can be shown in court.
Mattingly better start looking for a "rent-a-cop" or private security job.
He was under the infl., not necessarily drunk. He could have been on drugs. Up for 2 days?

best traditional Catalan restaurant in Barcelona
I've read many of the posts, have all sorts of good food suggestions, but I'm wondering about the one (possibly hard to find) place where it's all about traditional catalan cooking. I'll probably do the modern molecular thing too, but I'd like to have a great traditional place on my list as well.
Will be in Barcelona for 3 weeks, April to May.
Simple traditional Catalan cooking is quite simple, consisting of meats cooked over a charcoal grill plus tomato bread, cured meats and sausage and a simple salad. This is heartening, cheap and tasty, especially accompanied by a bottle or two of rustic chilled wine. El Glop is this kind of place. I prefer Can Punyetes which is a small chain, very popular and not really known to tourists. Their best restaurant is just above Diaginal on c/ Maria Cubi, 189. You can´t reserva a table so may have a wait if you don´t pitch up early but it´s an atmospheric place, lots of Catalan families and slightly bad tempered waiters but it´s packed with charm and cheap too. It also has many good bars close by for a drink afterwards.
I also love La Tomaquera which is in Poble Sec on c/ Tapioles 17. This is quite hard core. Again, no booking (nice bar just infront for a great beer), rushed waiters and mounds of grilled meats, salads and huge pans of snails (Very Catalan!) Again, it´s cheap, alot of fun, and slightly off the tourist trail.
My new favourite is Casa Delfin on the PAseo del Born, 36, smack in the middle of town. This restaurant has a lot of charm and has a very traditional Catalan menu with rice dishes, lots of fish and dishes of the day. it´s very cheap at lunchtime and does the best arroz negro in Barcelona. It´´s more expensive than the first two but not by much. The Born is great for a mojito afterwards.
If you want to go upscale the Fonda del Gaig has very good food but is extremely expensive. -
My friend who lived in Barcelona took us to an affordable Catalan joint in Gracia, Taverna el Nou Glop. It's actually part of a group of four restaurants. Here are addresses -
http://www.restalo.com/ficha-361-El_G... -
re: rrems
I second La Dama if the budget allows. Thanks to rrems's recommendation, I had a terrific meal there last year. A little less expensive is Fonda Gaig (not Can Gaig which is equally good but 'modern' cooking) and Casa Calvert. There are many earlier posts regarding to everyday types of places on this board.

The estate of Travis Barker's good friend, Chris Baker -- who died in the 2008 jet crash -- just settled the wrongful death lawsuit for millions of dollars ... TMZ has learned.
According to legal docs obtained by TMZ, Clay Lacy Aviation, Goodyear Tire and Rubber, Learjet and the other defendants kicked in a total of $4,375,000 to settle up with Chris' son, 3-year-old Sebastian. Baker's widow, Otilia Villar Baker, also settled for a total of $7,625,000.
According to the docs, the $4.375 mil for Sebastian will be used to purchase annuities, guaranteed to pay him $17,404,456.40 over the course of his life.
HOLY COW! I wonder if this had been non celeb related, would it have been that much of a payout? The widows and families of 9/11 didn't even get this much money.
Lil Chris was a great person and the money will never bring him back, im sure sebastian would much rather have his dad than the money
Those company's will just pass the cost and expense on to the public which is all of us. So screw that family for cashing in at my expense.
Why so much? I can understand suing for loss of expected earnings and support and some money for punitive damages but this seems rather excessive.
7.5 for the wife and 4.3 for jr??? thats whats wrong with the US sorry the guy died but allmost 12 million???? really????
A dime-a-dozen druggie nobody club DJ, who also happened to be a Jewish jerk. THAT represents the life and death of "DJ AM" Adam Goldberg... or w/e his name was.
Money is great but I'm sure his dad being with him his whole life would be far more valuable. My husband died when my son was 7 months so I know...
i wonder what the family of the african american bodyguard ended up getting ,,,,i bet his settlement isnt even a quarter of the sum chris's family got
RIP Lil Chris.
U were a great dude and it was a pleasure knowing you in your short time on this earth.
Now your family will never need a dime but I know his son desperately will miss his father
just typical that the "celebrity's" families milk the situation for cash which is what they did. They already had more money than most of us but nah they still need more to "survive". Totally pathetic and that douche barker can drag his ass lazy durg induced glass eyes into rehab now that he can afford the time away from whatever this guy does.

If not and they then from there upgraded the speed does that make a difference as to it being a new contract period?
Replacing faulty equipment has no impact on your contract, you could be leaving at the end of June and if you needed a replacement modem then you would get a modem and you would still disconnect at the end of the month.

During the high season you won't see any traffic in front of the seawall because it is full of vacationers, the only place where there is room to drive would be right on the water line at low tide.

I think not: we're talking about two kinds of situations here. The context here is: there was congestion, we should react to it within an RTO (and have an "emergency break" to always do that - but maybe that term was misleading). The circuit-breakers draft is about a much more serious condition (such as persistent congestion), warranting a much more serious reaction (terminating the connection). Cheers, Michael

December 9, 2013
(AP) - A proposed statewide smoking ban inside
Texas bars and restaurants has been revived in the special
legislative session.
A House committee Saturday voted out a proposal that would ban
smoking inside public places. The bill targets businesses that
require a state license to operate, such as bars and restaurants,
but excludes outdoor seating.
Republican state Rep. Myra Crownover said the bill would save
the state millions of dollars in health-related costs. A similar
bill during the regular session died when Senate negotiators
removed it from a spending measure.
Fast Eddie's Billiards opposed the proposal during Saturday's
House appropriations meeting. The company states that 70 percent of
its customers smoke and that the ban would cripple business.

On March 25, 1995, the Northern Arizona University Police Department obtained international accreditation as a law enforcement agency through the Commission on Accreditation for Law Enforcement Agencies (CALEA). NAUPD became the sixth police department in Arizona and the ninth university police department in the United States to receive CALEA recognition for meeting their rigorous standards. CALEA standards are recognized as the highest law enforcement standards throughout the world. The NAU Police Department strongly believes that obtaining CALEA accreditation demonstrates its commitment and dedication to excellence in the delivery of law enforcement services.
On March 25, 2009, CALEA awarded the NAU Police Department re-accreditation for the fifth time. In addition, the department was also designated as a Flagship Agency.
The CALEA Flagship Agency Program is designed to acknowledge CALEA Accredited public safety agencies that have demonstrated success in the accreditation process. The program also serves to provide other agencies seeking accreditation with examples of "best practices" on how to address compliance, policy development, file maintenance, and other issues relating to the accreditation process. The Flagship Agency designation is effective for the duration of the current award period.
What accreditation means to us:
By holding ourselves to this higher standard of excellence, we hope to always provide a level of law enforcement service that exceeds the expectations of our community. In the accreditation process, our agency is scrutinized at every level by CALEA officials. Everything from how we complete our paperwork, how we conduct field operations to how we phrase our directives is examined. This is a repeating process that demands that we live these standards day to day.
What accreditation means to you:
By having a police department that has voluntarily chosen to seek this higher standard, the community can expect and receive a consistently better level of service and accountability. Our officers are fully aware of the organization's dedication to accreditation, and that commitment should carry over to the way they handle each call for service. Through accreditation, it is our goal to provide the NAU community the best possible police service with highly trained and community oriented personnel.
If you have further questions, or comments about accreditation, please e-mail Commander Cindy Cox

I. Introduction
This short extract gives you a taste of the personal "Child's Horoscope" by Liz Greene. The small samples taken from various chapters convey an impression of the complete horoscope (18-25 pages) which can be
ordered as an E-Horoscope or a bound book in the AstroShop.
Most parents long to provide their children with the best they can offer on every level. But what is "the best"? The birth horoscope of a child is a map of patterns and potentials which exist in that child from the moment of birth. Encouragement of
these potentials in childhood can help a child to develop greater confidence and hope for a future which is more authentically his or her own, so that greater happiness and fulfillment are possible later in life.
II. Your Child's Psychological Type
In this concise chapter Liz Greene describes the child's general temperament and her characteristic approach to life.
The rich array of individual abilities and potentials portrayed in Joni's birth horoscope is set against the background of an inherent temperament bias which may be partly hereditary but is also the reflection of a mysterious essence which belongs to
her alone. This mysterious "something" is already at work within Joni, helping her to develop her personality along the lines which are healthiest and most natural to her.
[..] Joni has an innately compassionate heart and
loves to be needed. She may therefore readily adopt a kind of "parenting" role from a very young age, looking after younger brothers or sisters and wanting to bring home every stray cat or dog which crosses her path. At school [...]
III. The Characters in the Story
This is one of the most comprehensive chapters of the "Child's Horoscope". This short version touches only on a few of the central characters in your child's personality. The complete report provides a detailed description on 7-9 pages.
The tension between the main characters in Joni's inner story is the source of energy which provides the impetus for growth, movement and the formation of a healthy individuality.
[..] This does not imply that she is some sort of little angel who is incapable of sulks, tantrums, emotional outbursts and little manipulations. In fact, any feeling of personal
rejection or neglect is likely to result in an exaggerated protest because she takes everything [...]
[..] There is a
chameleon-like quality about her which makes her a natural actor, quick to pick up unspoken cues and respond to them, and ready to identify with the needs of others to the point where she may not feel real when she is alone.
In addition to her fluidity, Joni also [...]
Hidden traits
[..] These bouts of rebelliousness are likely to leave quite a lot of anxiety in their wake, and Joni will be unusually vulnerable and in need of reassurance afterward. As she gets older she may grow to
fear the unpredictable and divisive aspect of her own personality because [...]
IV. Emotional Needs and Patterns in Relationships
This chapter contains valuable information on the child's basic needs and the relationship with her parents. The complete horoscope covers this chapter on 5-6 pages.
Every child has particular ways in which he or she experiences and seeks emotional contact with others, and this may not always accord with other, more dominant personality traits.
[..] She may express her deep fear of isolation through an
excessive attachment to food or physical objects, but such behaviour really reflects her need for greater emotional and imaginative contact with loved ones. Joni needs a great deal of emotional closeness, but this does [...]
[..] Therefore it is important that the mother does not increase this dependency by manipulating her daughter's emotional loyalty in the midst of family conflicts deliberately or unconsciously even if her daughter seems ready
and willing to offer absolute allegiance.
Joni does [...]
V. Fears and Insecurities
Knowing about their child's fears can help parents to react with love and understanding in challenging situations. The child's main fears and insecurities are described on 2-3 pages in the full report.
VI. Looking toward the future
Many parents wonder about the future of their child. Every child has her own way to develop her potential. What this means for the individual child is described on 2-3 pages in chapter six of the complete Child's Horoscope.

Those services are helpful, but a majority of services charge a fee which can be overwhelming so it's better to find a no cost service to assist you in having a payback plan. You could start by simply exploring the many online debt consolidation solutions through the utilization of your online ways to gather a greater familiarity with exactly what these demand. But basically managing funds are very important for the individual in addition to the organization.
Most people see it relatively all too easy to get a comprehensive picture of the family income levels. The amount you make payment for will be based on what you'll be able to afford given your existing financial circumstances.

Canon Powershot A620 introduction
Ilse Jurriën : August 22th 2005 - 12:15 CET
Canon Powershot A620 digital camera introduction :
Canon, a leader in photographic and imaging technology, today announces its latest high performance compact digital still cameras, the PowerShot A620. With 7.1 Megapixels, the camera incorporates a host of high-end features normally reserved for G-series PowerShots. DIGIC II processors drive a fast, responsive performance, and - in combination with the cameras' 4x optical zoom lens - deliver superior image quality. A wide range of manual, automatic and special scene modes offer flexibility, creative control, and simplicity when required. The camera also features a 2.0" vari-angle LCD, My Colors, and a macro mode that allows photographers to get as close as 1 cm.
Canon A620 camera
VGA movies at 30 fps can also be created with the Canon A620. A complete range of optional accessories, including wide and tele-converters and waterproof case, extends shooting flexibility. A comprehensive software suite is provided as standard. The Powershot A620 is equipped with a Print/Share button, PictBridge printing as well as ID Photo Print and Movie Print. USB 2.0 Hi-Speed connections provide for high-speed transfer of image data.
Canon A620 - G-series performance
"We regard the PowerShot A620 as a mini-G camera - offering G-series performance, but retaining an A-series price," said Mogens Jensen, Head of Canon Consumer Imaging Europe. "With an impressive range of high-end features, the Canon A620 camera offers photography enthusiasts advanced control and flexibility."
Canon Powershot A620 - Improved image quality
Replacing the popular PowerShot A95, the new camera has been given a serious performance boost. While the A620 features a 7.1 Megapixel CCD sensor, the delivering image quality is suitable for detailed photo prints up to A3 size and allowing substantial cropping without loss of print quality.
Powershot A620 - Canon zoom lens
Precision Canon zoom lens in this new Powershot camera follows the design and construction of G-series lenses, with eight elements in seven groups, and incorporating two aspherical elements. The upgrade to a 4x optical zoom provides a 35–140 mm focal length (35 mm equivalent). With a maximum aperture range of f/2.8 (W) to f/4.1 (T), the lens is impressively bright at the telephoto end. In addition, focusing performance in low light has improved by up to 2-stops, resulting in greater freedom when shooting in dim conditions. The lens' spectral characteristics has been optimised specifically for the configuration of the lens and sensor, providing accurate colours and significantly reducing the chromatic aberrations (such as purple fringing) often found with lower quality lenses.
Powershot A620 - Advanced processing and focussing
The addition of Canon's advanced DIGIC II image processor results in a faster and more responsive camera that delivers improved image quality. Focusing time has been cut by around 60%, and shutter lag is negligible at no more than 0.1 seconds. Smooth continuous shooting is now available at approximately 1.9 fps for the A620. With DIGIC II's superior assessment of white balance, colour rendition accuracy is increased. The new PowerShot A620 features Canon's 9-point AiAF for fast, accurate focusing even when subjects are not centred. FlexiZone AF/AE allows free scrolling anywhere within the frame's auto focus area to select the desired subject, for which exposure is weighted accordingly. Manual focus selection is also available.
Canon Powershot A620 - Increased versatility
A larger 2.0" vari-angle LCD offers users great versatility in composing shots from awkward angles, such as from ground or waist level, above the head and when shooting self portraits. The selectable grid line display helps with composition and levelling horizons. The Canon A620 incorporates a total of 20 shooting modes, including full Manual mode, a Custom mode for allocating preferred shooting settings, and a shutter speed priority mode, with shutter speeds ranging from 15 seconds to 1/2500 second. Eight scene modes - such as Night Snapshot, Snow and Underwater - maximise results in a variety of shooting situations. The Stitch Assist mode facilitates shooting pictures for panoramas, which can be joined together easily with the supplied PhotoStitch software. My Colors - located on the mode dial - allows the expansion of creativity in digital photography. Special effects, such as Color Swap or Custom Color, which allows users to select their preferred colour balance for any given shot, can be performed in-camera and viewed on the LCD while shooting stills and movies. These effects could previously only be achieved using PC software after shooting. High quality movies are selectable from VGA (30/15fps), QVGA (30/15fps), Fast Frame Rate (for slow motion replays in camera), and Compact mode (for clips that are ideal for emailing).
Canon A620 - Accessories to enhance
A complete range of optional accessories is available to extend the capabilities of the Canon Powershot A620 camera. The new Conversion Lens Adapter LA-DC58F, has been designed to fit this camera. Both the Wide Converter Lens WC-DC58N (0.7x) and Tele-converter lens TC-DC58N (1.75x) increase framing options and extend the camera's effective focal length range. The dedicated Waterproof Case WP-DC90 - submersible to 40 m - is constructed with anti-fog double glass and a flash light diffusion plate. Separate Waterproof Case Weights WW-DC1 are available for controlling buoyancy. Other accessories include the AC Adapter Kit ACK600, the Battery Charger Kit CBK4-200 with four NiMH batteries, and the Soft Case DCC-300.
Canon Powershot A620 - Advanced printing
When used in combination with Canon's new Compact Photo Printer SELPHY CP510 and Canon's Ink and Paper Set (KP-108IP), prints can be produced for just 30 euro cents each. Printing via SELPHY CP Compact Photo Printers also allows the user to print handy ID Photo prints and movie prints. When connected to the latest range of PictBridge compatible PIXMA printers (also released today), image enhancement is possible with functions such as Noise Reduction and Vivid Photo, as well as the new Face Brightener feature. Also new is Captured Info print, which prints shooting data such as shutter speed, aperture and shooting mode within the photo border. Printing images without having to connect to a PC is kept simple with the Print/Share button, which also acts as an easy upload button for Windows XP and Mac OS X.
Canon A620 - Comprehensive software
The Canon Powershot A620 compact camera comes bundled with a comprehensive software suite, including Canon's browsing and printing software ZoomBrowser EX 5.5 (Windows) and ImageBrowser 5.5 (Mac), easy printing software PhotoRecord 2.2 and PhotoStitch 3.1 for creating stunning panoramas. Also included is the photo manipulation software, ArcSoft PhotoStudio. Purchasers of the camera are eligible for membership of CANON iMAGE GATEWAY , which offers 100MB of online space for uploading and sharing images, and supports My Camera, which allows users to further customise their camera settings. Supported operating systems are Windows 98 (SE), Me, 2000 (SP4), XP (SP1/2) and Mac OS X v10.2-v10.3. The cameras support PTP for driverless transfer to supported Windows XP or Mac OS X.

Two alien terrestrial species that scientists are currently concerned about on Cape Breton Island are Scotch broom (Cystisus scoparius) and Japanese knotweed (known as Fallopia japonica, Polygonum cuspidatum, Polygonum japonica and Renoutria japonica - it can't decide what it wants to be named scientifically!).
Purple loosestrife (Lythrum salicaria) is another species that scientists are keeping their eyes on here in Cape Breton because of its invasive status in other regions of Canada.
Additional information on invasive plant species in Cape Breton will be added in the near future. If there is a species you are interested in learning more about, please email us at email@example.com.

Witch Hazel has put a spell over the rest of the Looney Tunes characters, including Daffy Duck, Yosemite Sam, and Wile E. Coyote, who will try to stop Bugs in his treasure-seeking quest. There are 60 levels to traverse, covering four major areas of the castle: the garden, the hall, the basement, and the treasury. In each level, Bugs must find eight keys that will unlock the exit leading to the next area. To help him, Bugs has a few weapons at his disposal, from a bomb and cork gun to lightning, juice, and an anvil. Grabbing the hammer or pickaxe will help him get past physical obstacles, and the shield, clock, and shoe will protect him from the other characters.

I recently purchased a Seagate Expansion 3TB USB 3.0 and connected it into my newly installed computer with Win 7
Everything worked fine for a week, until today.
When I woke up today, I saw some movies and played games from the disk and it worked fine, around noon I shut the computer down and went off to work.
When I got home an hour ago (at 9 pm) I started the computer and the disk didn't work anymore.
It said that a file was broken and couldn't be read. I was asked if I wanted to format the drive. I could not access files or view them.
I can't see what the problem might be. I left the apartment right after I turned off the computer (when the disk worked). So I have not moved the disk a millimeter.
I have tested other USB inputs and tried to unplug the power cord and replace. I have the newest USB drivers, otherwise the disk wouldn't have worked in the first place. Nothing I've tried have worked.
Thanks in advance / Jonas
Solved! Go to Solution.
Whenever you're being prompted to format the drive it's generally an indication that the files have become corrupted. It's unfortunately not always clear what has caused this, but most times in my experience it's been due to drives not being safely removed from the computer.
If you don't have a backup of your data and need to retrieve the information, you can try data recovery software with the drive. There are some free versions available on the internet, or you are welcome to use Seagate's software:
Once ready to format, you can also test the drive with our SeaTools for Windows utility to see if it's still in good working order:
Let me know if you have any questions.
All right. Yeah I don't think it'll be a problem to get back the files.
But just to make things clear.. Am I supposed to use the "safe remove" every single time I shut down my computer?
Seems strange since I've left lots of regular USBs in the computer and shutting down/restarting the computer hundreds of times. Never had any problem doing so. But if that's the solution that's fine.
Other than that, I really enjoy the disc
If you are shutting down your computer fully, you don't need to safely remove the drive prior to. Here's a knowledge base article with some additional information about the process:

I can certainly feel your frustration with your purchase but since according to the rules on this forum, I supposed to remain unemotional about the problems regarding my 3TB Expansion drive and can't rant and rave, it is hard to do so but I'll try to only state the following facts.
I purchased a 3Tb USB3 Expansion Drive less than a year ago, and within 2 weeks the drive ultimately failed, it wouldn't be recogized by Seatools and Win7, causing me to lose 800 gb of data, I was distraught about the loss of data but felt that given time it could be replaced, I sent the drive into Seagate with the requirement that I didn't need data recovery and it was ultimately replaced by what I believe is a new expansion drive and not a refurbished drive,
The drive I have received has been in use for a while with me only transferring data to it that could be easily replaced to and it has seemed to be working, however recently I needed to transfer about 1200 GB to the drive in order for me to do a specific project. Later in the day I came back home to find the drive again has failed but at least this time it said that I have to reformat the drive, unfortunately that doesn't seem possible under Win7 since it's having problems recognizing the drive. The data on this drive can not be easily replaced and some cannot be replaced whatsoever.
I again have contacted Seagate regarding the improbability that 2 drives that I have recieved from them in a year have failed.
The response I received from them is that the drive must have been accidently formatted...unfortunately I don't think the drive can do that spontaneously when no one is around so I have to look to other possibilities I have gone on the internet to see if any more people have had similar problems and any solutions regarding this product line (3TB expansion drive) and was surprised at the number.
Seagate has offered they're Data Recovery Services at a cost but at this time have still not addressed the problems yet regarding the fact that this being a replacement drive for the original and it to has failed as well in less than a year.
Since Seagate made some design changes in the way the drive behaves (no power on switch, software control) I'm wondering if the new design is at the root of the problem.
Please note: I have used Seagate drives all the way back to the ST-251-1 (40mb drive) and continue to use there desktop drives which in all these years have proved extremely reliable, it's just when I have purchased their external drive that all this have happened.

Re: Phone says connected but Kies PC stuck at connecting or loading
I too am having the same problem. Only thing that makes me regret leaving iphone is the lack of a good PC connection like iTunes. So much easier when I could just plug in my iPhone and iTunes would pen and sync my stuff.

Intro and Information
Tuesday Morning Martial Arts Class at Xavier Academy. Instructor Logan has separated the students into Beginners, Intermediate and Advanced Students.
During the first hour, the Beginner Class has been drilled repeatedly into the basics of Martial Arts. The Mid-Level Students have begun Sparring Practice, and the Advanced Students are acting as assistant instructors, helping out with the less experienced students.
Meanwhile, several new students have arrived at the school. They are quickly given an orientation interview by the Headmaster, Scott Summers. He then gives them Dorm Room Assignments and informs them that everything they will need, including spare clothes, are waiting for them in their room.
He also informs the new students that they should change into clothes appropriate for Gym Class, or Martial Arts Uniforms if they have them. Once they have visited their dorm rooms and changed, Tom Corsi escorts them to the Gymnasium in time to join in on Logans' Martial Arts Class.
Once there, they spend the next hour in training depending on their belt color level. The training is hard, and each have worked up a serious sweat. Tow hours into the class, Logan signals for the students to sit down on the Gymnasium floor to take a break....the class, however, is not yet over.

Studio Sessions
Mount Moriah at OPB, 2-23-12
Mount Moriah's debut LP, released last year, was a surprise of the best kind. Not knowing anything about the Durham/Chapel Hill North Carolina band at all, I was taken by the group's sound from the first listen. Mount Moriah's style is anchored by Heather McEntire's expressive voice and by Jenks Miller's wiry guitar -- which reminds me a little bit of Wilco's Nels Cline on songs like "Only Way Out" in this session. The band takes their name from the biblical Mount Moriah -- where Abraham, it's said, took Isaac to be sacrificed -- which is now the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. Religion, sacrifices of a kind, love and letting go wind their way through the band's lyrics.
Mount Moriah has made a few visits to Portland recently, opening for Indigo Girls at the zoo last summer, and for The Hold Steady frontman Craig Finn most recently. In this set at OPB, Mount Moriah plays four songs from their debut (self-titled) LP.
Recording by Steven Kray with technical assistance from Jonathan Newsome
Video production by Neil Maknarakham with Jarratt Taylor, and Cathy Lewis-Daugherty

no offense meant towards you ladytxn, but IMHO, channel 6 is our n. tex version of Geraldo or Nancy Grace. Both way over the top, misleading, open ending and suggestion on most of their stories. Drama, drama drama, to bad we don't have a bigger market for the to fail in.

You should stay away ! After reading your comment the first thing i will do when i reach Pueblo is go visit all the dogs and Mexicans on the river walk ,If you thought it was a bad experience I will probably have a great time.You need to climb back in your town car get back to your castle . I assume you are a middle age rich *** that has not had sex for a year...If you are married you need to grab him and give him a big kiss and be thankful that he has stayed with you as long as he has .In closing the public dose not need to hear your RUDE comments, you might think hard on getting a hobby. PS.Where is that bakery at ? I want to try that out as well.
Fred Weisbrod began collecting vintage military aircraft at the Pueblo airport (a World War II air base) in 1972. A group of veterans formed the Pueblo Historical Aircraft Society in 1985, to help preserve Weisbrod's collection. The planes were moved inside two old hangars. Since then, the collection has grown, and now includes some other military vehicles and other gear.
The showpiece is a World War II B-29 Superfortress. These aircraft carried the war right into the heart of Japan during the last year of World War II. The one shown here was nicknamed Peaches, and flown by a native of Pueblo. This is a must-see for any military/aviation buff.
A little coffee shop meets laundromat where you can eat, drink, and enjoy free wifi while awaiting your clothes to wash and dry. With an electronic guage above the door - you can see when your laundry is done without stepping away from your coffee to check. Friendly staff and clean establishment. The coffee and drinks seem to be all pre-made, but the pad is definitely a class above most laundromats. Ratin: 2.5 stars out of 5.
This place is a DUD and tourist trap. Pueblo RiverWalk - http://www.puebloharp.com/ the cookie store was a waste of money. The brownie tasted awful, the snickerdoodles, peanut butter, "special" mother's day cookies, were all disgusting. The whole cookie store was overpriced for such nasty treats. Where did these people learn how to bake?
The Pueblo "Riverwalk " from start to finish is only a 10 minute walk with dog owners walking around letting their dogs *** and poop all over the riverwalk. The river is full of trash. Mexican kids with their mothers have no manners, they need to be deported back to Mexico. For supposedly being a great part of Pueblo, it was gross. Will not recommend and won't visit again.
West of town is a city park that is just open desert with some hills, used for motorcycle and ATV fun. It is pretty big, and the time my daughter took me there with the ATV's, it was empty but for one trail bike. My son in law broke three ribs there another time.
Not in Pueblo, but over an hour away in the mountains. Pueblo is still about the closest reference point. Built by an eccentric individual over 20 years, and still under construction. Bishop has had trouble with many government entities and has signs posted througout the castle area describing his problems. But still very welcoming to the public. My pictures are two years old, but I was there this week, and much more work has been done. We have been there three times, and now visit every time we are in the area. It's an awesome project.
Pueblo is a pretty quiet town , but nice to walk around in. The River Walk is a focal point of the center of the city and next to the restored area of Union Street and Victoria Street. It is not long, but quite pleasant.
Pueblo is restoring it's downtown area. It has just restored the Arkansas River to it's original location and built a beatiful river walk along it. Often there are festivities to attend. Other times it's just a beatiful, peaceful place to walk along at a leisurely pace and enjoy the sights.
The city of Pueblo is spending $20 million USD to construct a new 100.000ft2 (9.300m2) library. Construction began in the spring of 2001 and expected to open in late October 2003. It will be the biggest and most technologically advanced library in all of southern Colorado.
To see the construction web cam go to www.pueblolibrary.org then click on "about us" then "construction news" then "construction web cam" The cam updates at the top of each hour.
The place is called Patriot Rental. They rent bicycles ($25 a day), strollers, and wagons. For now they sell sodas for $1.25 each. Later on they will be selling candy as well.
The place is located along the bike path at The Nature Center. To get to The Nature Center take hwy 50 west to Pueblo Blvd. Turn left (the only way you can turn), then go to the light at Nature Center Dr. Turn right and go abt a mile til the road ends and you'll be at the nature center.
Patriot Rental hours are 10am to dusk Monday thru Saturday and 1pm to dusk on Sundays. See Chuck or Tim.
This 37 room mansion was built in 1893 for John and Margaret Thatcher. He was a business man and founder of a bank that still operates here in the Pueblo area.
Margaret Thatcher named the mansion after her favorite flower.
Hours: Tuesday thru Saturday 10.00 - 16.00
Closed on major holidays and all of the month of January.
Adults: $6
Seniors (over 60) $5
Children (6-18) $4
(pictures will be here Feb 16)
Pueblo Zoo is located on 25 acres, in the heart of City Park. They are open 365 days a year. Hours: 10.00 to 17.00 during summer and 9.00 to 16.00 the rest of the year. See my travelogue for the list of prices.
If driving to the zoo the easiest way to get there is from Pueblo Bl and Goodnight. If taking the bus, take the Red Creek bus (#7)
A must see is the Union Avenue District. Pueblo's original downtown where there is lots of shopping, resturants and museums to be explored.
Many of the building were built in the late 1800's and survived a major flood in the area in 1925. Also there is a scenic walk where one can walk through the city as much as 30 miles or as little as none.
Downtown Pueblo's most beautiful attraction is the Riverwalk. Not quite equal to the one in old San Antonio, but still worth a visit. It's very enjoyable by day or night.
There are many of these smaller type playgrounds spread throughout the city. Mineral Palace Park (8th & Santa Fe) and City Park (Pueblo Bl. & Goodnight) are the largest.

Sacramento saw the third-biggest year-over-year drop in the number of consumers with subprime credit scores among the nation's top 25 metro markets in last year's third quarter, according to Atlanta-based credit rating firm Equifax.
The Sacramento area had 348,953 consumers with an Equifax credit score of less than 620, down from 371,947 in the third quarter of 2011. The 6.2 percent decline was surpassed only by San Francisco (6.4 percent) and Chicago (9 percent).
Among all 25 markets, about 1 million consumers dropped off the subprime list, representing a year-over-year decline of 2.1 percent.
Equifax noted strong improvement in U.S. markets hit hardest during the housing bust. That included four California metro areas and the communities of Las Vegas, Phoenix and Miami.
"We are seeing a trend of consumers being careful and disciplined about their use of existing credit while also being cautious about using new accounts they have opened," said Trey Loughran, personal solutions division president of Equifax.

The ins and outs of G protein-coupled receptor trafficking
Trends in Biochemical Sciences, Volume 28, Issue 7, 1 July 2003, Pages 369-376

AbstractAll cells are faced with the complexity of converting a myriad of extracellular stimuli to intracellular signals and appropriate biological responses. This process involves a series of highly orchestrated molecular events, many of which occur at the plasma-membrane interface. Endocytosis is one such event, and functions to transport numerous small molecules and protein cargo. For G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), endocytosis serves as a mechanism to regulate cell-surface-receptor levels, thereby, contributing to the regulation of hormonal responsiveness. The trafficking of GPCRs through the endocytic pathway involves three main steps: recruitment of receptors to discrete endocytic sites, internalization and intracellular sorting. Many recent studies have advanced our understanding of these steps. Novel mechanistic insight into the recruitment of GPCRs to sites of endocytosis has been gained and the discovery of novel protein–protein interactions, which define more clearly the processes of internalization and endocytic sorting, have been characterized. In addition, a role for ubiquitin in internalization and sorting to the degradative pathway has emerged.

Are we β-ARKing up the wrong tree? Casein kinase 1α provides an additional pathway for GPCR phosphorylation

AbstractAlthough originally linked to receptor desensitization, G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) phosphorylation has now been implicated in coupling receptors to specific signalling pathways. Generally, this phosphorylation event is thought to be mediated by one of the members of the GPCR kinase (GRK) family. However, recent studies have indicated that protein kinases distinct from the GRK family might also be involved in agonist-mediated GPCR phosphorylation. This review analyses the approaches employed to investigate the nature of GPCR phosphorylation and discusses recent developments implicating other kinases, particularly casein kinase 1α, in the phosphorylation of GPCRs.

Lamia Achour, Catherine Labbé-Jullié, Mark G.H. Scott and Stefano Marullo
AbstractG-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are dynamically regulated by various mechanisms that tune their response to external stimuli. Modulation of their plasma membrane density, via trafficking between subcellular compartments, constitutes an important process in this context. Substantial information has been accumulated on cellular pathways that remove GPCRs from the cell surface for subsequent degradation or recycling. In comparison, much less is known about the mechanisms controlling trafficking of neo-synthesized GPCRs from intracellular compartments to the cell surface. Although GPCR export to the plasma membrane is commonly considered to mostly implicate the default, unregulated secretory pathway, an increasing number of observations indicate that trafficking to the plasma membrane from the endoplasmic reticulum might be tightly regulated and involve specific protein partners. Moreover, a new paradigm is emerging in some cellular contexts, in which stocks of functional receptors retained within intracellular compartments can be rapidly mobilized to the plasma membrane to maintain sustained physiological responsiveness.

Regulated ubiquitination of proteins in GPCR-initiated signaling pathways
The transmission of information through G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR)-initiated signaling pathways is modulated in several ways. Although phosphorylation of some of the proteins that populate these pathways is a well-known modulatory process, recent studies have shown that signaling proteins can also undergo regulated ubiquitination in response to GPCR activation, with diverse consequences. To date, three GPCRs, some of their associated proteins and certain downstream mediators, notably inositol (1,4,5)-trisphosphate [Ins(1,4,5)P3] receptors, have been shown to be ubiquitinated following GPCR activation. Regulated ubiquitination causes proteasomal degradation of Ins(1,4,5)P3 receptors and appears to control GPCR endocytosis and trafficking. Defining the roles of ubiquitination in GPCR-mediated signaling is an important task because novel drugs that perturb the ubiquitin–proteasome pathway are now being approved as therapeutic agents.
