Halii said:i know how you feel!
so you just mean coming up with the melody and instrumental parts themselves is hard for you?
Sioux NDN said:i got a couple of beats that sound good that got brass's, strings, and other shit and they sound pretty good, but then i got like 20 beats that are the just drums and sound dope as fuck but they need instruments
Halii said:well, from there it's just music theory, and that's something i couldn't teach you well over the internet homie... sorry.
just do some trial and error and figure out what sounds good.
if you use multiple instruments, make sure it's in the same key, meaning it's most of the same notes and it doesn't clash.
like when you play a natural (white key) and an accidental (black key) at the same time and it sounds like a cat screeching, you wanna avoid that... unless that's what you're going for.
Sioux NDN said:i know all that stuff but im just not good at it
Halii said:right click the channel for the instrument you'd like to use, and choose 'piano roll.'
lay down the notes. you can change the length. if you need them to be shorter, use the highlight tool, click on the wrench on the top bar and select 'chop.' you can chop them however you'd like.
or, if you want to lay down a basic chord progression, you can mess with a bunch of different chords by clicking the arrow on the top bar of the piano roll, and selecting 'chords.' when you set a note, the chord will form itself around that note.
if you need help with anything else feel free to ask me. (:
Sioux NDN said:anybody wanna help me? i use FL and im good with the drums, snares, hihats and all that shit but im not with instruments like strings, and brass instruments
yo thanks everyone for the advice and yea at the moment the budget is pretty tight but that could change in a couple months so I might just wait tell then but for now i think I'll try Audacity . I just started taking this whole writing/raping thing seriously like a month or two ago but I think I've gotten pretty good so I'll C how far I can go. but I got to tell you now that I'm all into I'm thinking about all the stupid shit I've bought over the last year and I'm like damn it!! that could of been a microphone lol
Ableton Studio 8 and Reason 4...
If you're looking for free software, then Audacity is a good place to start for recording, and Ardour is decent as well, though only available for the Linux and Mac OS X platforms as of right now.
But yeah, I primarily use Reason 4 for synths and stuff, and Ableton for any live and/or studio recording and sample manipulation. It rocks. I also have Native Instruments Komplete 4, which is a tad bit dated now, but still has some great stuff. Sometimes I'll just run a finished or partially finished track through Traktor, 'cause it's got a great compliment of effects processing plugins...
I'd be down for a certain amount of collaboration also. And if your material is of sufficient quality, you'd be more than welcome to be a part of the label repertoire as well.
Started my own label, Panthère Records, six years ago. I swear by the software for all my production needs - nothing wrong with an old school hardware-only setup, but software is far more convenient for me personally, and the flow of creativity is that much easier and better.

Grace in LA Multi Stone Skinny Stretch Jean 1 1
Not impressed I have a few pair of Grace denim (shorts, capris, and jeans). All of which are EXTREMELY comfortable. I had to order these and was so excited to get them, but was disappointed once I received them. The second I put them on, 3 stones fell off. The stones that are in the frayed area of the legs make it very hard for you to bend down/over. Debating on whether or not to return them. June 6, 2012

Totally conflicted. I love the design, but as a life-long comics geek, I absolutely hate the TV show and the ghettoization of comic books it instituted for decades to come. I'm gonna have to pass on this one based on the theme reference. *sigh* -

The prevention of a very serious and deadly disease is underway. The USDA will be spending the next few months spreading rabies oral vaccine baits throughout Northeast and Mid-Atlantic States. On Monday, the baits were spread through St. Lawrence County. Public health officials told our Cara Thomas that this method has proven successful over the years and has kept residents and their pets safe.
ST. LAWRENCE COUNTY, N.Y. -- Each year the USDA deploys hundreds of thousands of rabies oral vaccination baits to help stop the spread of this infectious disease. And on Monday, baits were spread across Northern New York, including all of St. Lawrence County. Myrna Barney, St. Lawrence County's Public Health Sanitarian, said, "We do have rabies in the area. We have two confirmed cases of terrestrial rabies and one case of bat rabies. So we use the baits to stop the spread of that."
"It's going to protect the community, the domestic animals and you know the children if they're bitten by the animals," said Potsdam's Highway Superintendent, John Keleher.
The baits are only a little bigger than a quarter. It's encased by a block of fish or dog meal with a packet of liquid vaccine inside.
"When the animal bites into the packet it releases the liquid and they swallow it and become vaccinated in that manner," says Barney. Early Monday morning, planes flew over the county, deploying more than 80,000 baits into wooded areas. The rest are distributed by hand by 10 participating municipalities. "Today what we're going to do is start putting baits out in areas that aren't able to be accessible by the aerial drop in the village here in Potsdam," said Keleher.
The baits will be placed every few feet into swap areas or waterways where wild animals can be found. Public health officials say the baits are not dangerous for most people. But there are some precautions to take before handling one.
Barney said, "We do advise anyone who is immuno-compromised or pregnant not to handle the baits. If you do come across a bait that's in your yard or an area not likely to be visited by wild animals you should remove it."
Officials say if you need to remove the bait from your yard to use gloves or a plastic bag to pick up the bait and wash your hands with warm water if it touches your skin. And for pets, they say eating the bait won't hurt them, but it may give them a stomach ache.
For questions about the rabies vaccine baits call your local Public Health Department. There is also a phone number on the bait itself.

There is no clear winner in the race for Brazos County judge. Duane Peters and Mark Conlee will face a runoff election April 13.
Peters, a Brazos County Commissioner, received 46 percent of the vote, with Conlee, the mayor of Bryan, getting 31 percent.
Ernie Wentrcek, the former mayor of Bryan, took in 18 percent of the vote. Economic consultant Brian Alg won five percent.
The winner of the Republican runoff faces no Democratic opponent, though an independent, Doug O'Brien, awaits the winner.
Current judge Randy Sims decided not to run for re-election.

Do you think dissecting the heart might be gross? Well your wrong. A couple of days ago, we started with a unit of the circulatory system with the heart blood and blood vessels. We were in class when a teacher, Mrs. Salem came with a bag. And right now was the end of this unit so it wasn't a surprise for the heart to be there. There was recess right now so we had to wait until the dissection.

Volcanoes, the Dangerous Landform
They are a dangerous but amazing sight. Magma flowing in and out with a bright color. Mountains? No, these landforms unleash their magma violently but when not, they are calmer than the ocean. Volcanoes. Why do they erupt, how are they formed, that's some of the things that make them fascinating, what make them truly unpredictable.
Volcanoes are landforms with rather similar forming to mountains, with tectonic plates; The gigantic chunks of crust that move constantly but over time by convection currents; the hottest places in the mantle which was first suggested by Alfred Wegener, a geology scientist. The plates were formed more than 900 million years ago after the earth being at blazing temperatures, cooling down. That made the Earth's crust shrink and crack. Which is what made what we now call the plates. For a volcano to be formed there would have to be 2 types of plates; An Oceanic Plate and a Continental plate; An Oceanic plate is a plate that's thin (9-15 miles) and most of the plate is underwater while Continental Plates are thick (20-50 miles) and hardly anything underwater. The Oceanic Plate, because it is thinner, would have to go under the Continental Plate and bits of the Oceanic Plate would make huge mounds. The mounds would start looking into a mountain-like landform. The Oceanic Plate would later reach the mantle and melt. Even later small vents would form that lead to the surface to the peak and around of the mountain-like landform, making it a volcano. This process takes thousands of years. Volcanoes can go extinct in a few hundred centuries. While they're active, they can be dangerous.
Some volcanoes need and oceanic plate and a continental plate, but some have a different forming; by a hole around the middle of an oceanic plate. That holes is formed by an even hotter area in the mantle. (This area is called a hotspot) This makes a hole. From that hole would come magma cooling down quickly, (because this happens underwater) Making it turn solid, but more magma would come out making it gradually a mount that keeps growing. But the oceanic plate is moving, so at some point the volcano will stop growing and a volcano next to it will start growing. And will happen the same thing over again until the plate moves from the hot spot.
Volcanoes are found around the borders of continental plates and oceanic plate (where they collide) and even in the middle of an oceanic plate. Most volcanoes that are known are on land but many are under water (most are on land because they are easier to find).
Volcanoes are landforms with a crater where the peak should be. . That is where boiling magma comes out. When a volcano erupts the magma that goes out is then called lava. Sometimes when a volcano erupts it could basically remodel the top half of the volcano.
Mount Vesuvius is one of the most famous volcanoes, killing 2000 people in 79 AD, wrecking 3 cities.
What would happen in the future? I think that the volcanoes we now have will stay active, dormant, or extinct. And new ones will come to life. Constantly as well as some going extinct at the same time.

It's Friday morning, the final day of camp, and the campers were busy cooking up another delicious meal. This time, they are anticipating an exciting visitor. Rhode Island's First Lady, Stephanie Chafee, an advocate for children's wellness throughout the state, came to visit Fit2cook4Kids. The campers couldn't wait to show Mrs. Chafee everything they learned all week at camp.
They greeted our special guest at the door, showing off by confidently introducing themselves, shaking hands while making eye contact, exactly as they had practiced earlier in the week. What the campers didn't know was that they were about to get another helpful lesson on etiquette…table manners. Mrs. Chafee explained that they should always practice table manners and proper etiquette. She said, "If you were to ever have dinner with the Queen you would want to be prepared!"
The campers learned so much from Mrs. Chafee, like when to start eating, how to use silverware, how dishes are served and removed from the table, and about removing elbows from the table. What valuable lessons our First Lady shared! She told them that table etiquette is an important skill that is needed when entering the workplace. Mrs. Chafee suggested that they should practice their etiquette weekly at home in order for it to become second nature. As a result, they will feel comfortable in any social setting. Soon enough they will be ready to dine with the Queen!
Mrs. Chafee was so excited to see all of the healthy dishes prepared by the campers. After lunch was over, it was time for the campers to teach Mrs. Chafee. She experienced her first game of TeaTime©, a game that makes you think before you speak. They taught her how to play, and about the rules that went along with the game. I have to say, Mrs. Chafee was one of the best TeaTime©, judges I've ever seen. She really gave the campers detailed questions that challenged them to work even harder during their final game where they showed off their advanced level of TeaTime©, skills. The First Lady expressed how much she enjoyed the game and her plans to play the game at home with her family.
Having our First Lady, Stephanie Chafee, at Fit2cook4Kids was surely a spectacular ending to a successful summer at camp. With her extensive involvement in children's wellness initiatives throughout the state, she is a wonderful role model. It is encouraging to receive support from those who represent the Ocean State and know that Fit2cook4Kids summer camps are make a difference among children in Rhode Island.

We at Cajun Country Swamp Tours are proud to bring swamp tours to you that are done with as little environmental impact as possible.
This Louisiana swamp tour of Cajun Country is less than six miles from Interstate 10's EXIT 109 . From Exit 109 your swamp tour is just 15 minutes away in a beautiful surreal Louisiana cypress swamp that is sure to charm and excite your imagination. On the way you will cross the historic Bayou Teche and pass through the small Cajun town of Breaux Bridge. The swamp tour guides are native experienced commercial fisherman and avid outdoors men. Butch holds college degrees in Zoology and Botany and has passed his knowledge and insight down to his son, Shawn. The swamp tour area, Cypress Island/Lake Martin Swamp, is famous for it's impressive scenic beauty and wildlife. Alligators, egrets, herons, bayous, ancient cypress trees covered with Spanish moss and more of what you envision a Louisiana swamp to be are waiting for you on Cajun Country Swamp Tours. The boat tour is conducted in an open swamp people boat (crawfish skiff) that is small enough to get us into the heart of cypress swamps yet large enough to accommodate 20 large adults. Arrangements for larger groups can be made. The tour boat is powered by an environmentally friendly and very quiet 4-stroke outboard motor. Cajun Country Swamp Tours operates swamp ecotours all year round by appointments to take you on a swamp tour that you will long remember with fond memories.

You've seen this part of the movie a million times. A ship full of sea weary men spots a beach and as they come ashore they throw themselves atop the sand, thrilled to be on land again.
On Day 14 of our family vacation that is the exact opposite picture of what we felt when we finally, mercifully boarded the Disney Wonder in Vancouver, British Columbia. After all the trials and tribulations of the past week our cruise aboard the Disney Wonder represents rest, recovery and new adventures.
Welcome Aboard, Disney-style!
First impressions are so important and that's why you've got to hand it to Disney: they "get" this principle in spades. (more…)

Victoria is the Action 4 News morning meteorologist.
After a week of nothing but cold and dreary, things are about to take a huge turn in the weather department.
A dynamic storm system is expected to make for potentially hazardous weather Tuesday evening through Wednesday before noon.
Today, we'll see temperatures in the 60's for highs, with winds finally changing direction from north to east.
That easterly wind flow will help to bring in moisture at the surface and raise humidity levels.
In the upper levels, a more complex pattern is in play.
Off west, there is a well defined upper level low pressure system that is really doing a couple things.
One, moving in moisture in the upper levels of the atmosphere and streaming it over Texas from west to east from the Pacific, which will bring in some clouds today.
Two, as it approaches the area, we'll see an increase in energy forcing air to rise, creating increasing chances for showers Tuesday.
By Tuesday evening and well into Wednesday midday, those will turn to a chance for thunderstorms, some strong with a slight risk of severe.
This will evolve over a good 24 hour period, so it's best to take proper precaution, and rethink traveling within this time frame across South and Central Texas.
Rain totals could range from tenths of an inch to more than an inch, depending on when and where these thunderstorms do occur.

my own homespung philosophy
, 05-08-2012 at 01:37 PM (471 Views)
I once talked about giving promises to yourself and keeping them. It can be harder to keep a promise made to yourself than others. I have made one to myself and I am gonna try my best to keep it. I am gonna write a page in a book I own before I go to sleep every night for 28 days. 28 because I heard somewhere that you need to things that often to make it a habit. doesn't have to anything important just wanderings or thought and ideas.
I got my results from my first exam today and I passed. I am so happy cause I walked out of that exam in shock it was so difficult and I was so sure I had failed. so I am so very very happy today!
I bought a tv a few days ago, I haven't had a tv in more than 2 years now. Last night I thought to myself I'd turn it on because there are always documentaries on Mondays but there was a handball game so I just turned it off again and started reading Steppenwolf by Hesse.Tomorrow night is a bbc documentary about Sherlock Holmes, I am gonna check it out. I do enjoy these shows from BBC, always fun to watch.
I am addicted to a show these days, 'It's always sunny in Philadelphia' they are a nice change from most comedies out there!
Yesterday I went to a meeting about my sons graduation trip, he is gonna spend two days with school on an adventure, it sounds fun but I am very nervous. I'll probably be chewing my nails the whole time.
anyways gotta go to another meeting now about his school next fall.

What do you think...
Here's the situation: I have a 125 gallon with Amphilophus flaveolus and cutteri in it. I had two 250w heaters. One is newly purchased. One is newly replaced from Marineland. Both have the new technology with the on/off light indicators. For about a month, the heaters could barely get the tank above 78*, when set on 82-86*. I dealt with it though. Yesterday, the tank was at 74* and my Amphilos were hiding. Both heaters were lit up red, saying they were heating.
SO... Here's what I did: I ran to the shop, where I bought the others. I bought a 300w Marineland to add to the mix (even though the guy at the store said ONE 300w heats his 125 gallon). I thought this would simply and quickly fix my problem, while I figure out if the others are bad.
Here's the problem: Today the tank is still at 74* with 2 250W heaters indicating they are heating AND a 300W heater that is in the tank; it is still cold. BUT the 300W is frequently on/off with the red light, mostly off. The tank is clearly not 80 - the temperature which the 300w is set. If I bought it yesterday, wouldn't that 300w be pumping heat? It's not coming on and it's not providing heat.
I was hoping the 300W was the solution to my problems. I have so much going on, that I didn't need this problem. It's realllly bugging me.
Thanks for your input. I really don't even know where to start. I can't justify dropping more money into heaters for this tank.


text: Home Culture Pam Grier: From Sex Symbol to Cult Figure The first black female action hero shares the highs and lows of her life in a new memoir. By: Jeffrey Winbush Posted: June 3 2010 6:57 AM 0 Pam Grier in 'Jackie Brown.' (IMDb Pro courtesy of Miramax Films) If you're old enough to remember when Pam Grier was blowing away dirtbags while struggling to remain fully clothed (she was successful sometimes and sometimes she wasn't), you'll remember she was the original bad mama who didn't take no mess. She was first--if not the only--black female action hero. Oh, and she was sexy as hell, too. What you may not have known is that when blaxploitation movies ran out of gas, Grier didn't. She just moved on to television (Miami Vice, Law and Order: SVU, Linc's, The L Word and currently a recurring role on Smallville), plays (Fool for Love, The Piano Lesson). She continues to make films with decent parts including playing Queen Latifah's mother in Just Wright and a role in an upcoming Tom Hanks/Julia Roberts movie. "My life is so much bigger than I could have put in a book. It could have been War and Peace," Grier says about her memoir, Foxy: My Life in Three Acts, co-written with Andrea Cagan. Exploitation fare like Black Mama, White Mama; The Big Bird Cage, Coffy and Foxy Brown were not cinematic classics, but they weren't meant to be. They revolved around sex, skin and violence--the rocket fuel of a teenage boy's life. They are cult classics that launched Grier's career as an iconic actress Mia Mask, author of Divas On Screen: Black Women in American Film, said of Grier on NPR, "Neither a racial role model nor simple stereotype, Pam Grier's '70s screen persona was multifaceted. Her characters fused feminist sensibilities, black nationalist radicalism, vigilante justice." There may have better black actresses than Grier, but none of them combined the beauty, brains and swagger Grier embodied during her reign as the queen of blaxploitation. If there had never been a Foxy Brown, a former video store geek named Quentin Tarantino would have never written the script for Jackie Brown. Fans looking for details about her films may feel a bit short-changed by Foxy. Her harrowing turn as a murderous prostitute in Fort Apache: The Bronx gets a detailed examination of how she got so immersed in the role she declined a lunch date with star Paul Newman because she didn't want to break character. Coffy and Foxy Brown made Grier a B-movie star, but apparently they aren't cherished memories. She disposes of Coffy on one page while Foxy Brown gets a paragraph. Working with a red-hot Tarantino, fresh off of his Pulp Fiction success, on Jackie Brown, was perfect timing for Grier and provided her with a role that, if not exactly a comeback, was her return to top-billing. Grier was nominated for a Golden Globe as the savvy stewardess who ends up playing off drug dealers, cops and probably the audience in a series of double and triple crosses. Grier recognized the director enjoyed shooting scenes out of sequence. Tarantino's quirky way of playing with time forced Grier to rely on her acting chops. "If you weren't thinking you could reveal something, the other character would have no way of knowing," Grier explained. "That's the way Quentin works. He loves puzzles." "I didn't want Foxy to be a sequence of events," Grier says. "I wanted it to be constructed like a story and move the reader along." Divvied up into three "acts," it's a brisk read that is never boring. But at times, the book seems a bit undernourished. Page 1 of 3 NEXT PAGE > Powered by Livefyre

Good ole Hank Pym has built up the reputation of being the world's largest, or smallest, bastard. The Avengers already have two geniuses aboard but none are quite like this guy. Maybe the Pym particles have gone to his brain but his stubborn and self-assure nature has put him in the doghouse with his lady on many occasions. She sees right through his insecure ways and realizes he feels inadequate compared to someone like Thor. But come on, do you really want to piss off your significant other when she can sting the crap out of you? Ah, now how how much of a genius is he really?
 In the regular Marvel Universe, Henry Pym has gone by a few billion different aliases, has been a villain, a hero, a husband to The Wasp, a boyfriend to Tigra, paranoid, cocky, and everything else you can imagine. Basically his mood swings and temperament are about as predictable as a teenage girl's hormonal rage during her first menstrual cycle. If we go with the Ultimates version we get a smart-ass, egotisitcal, chauvinistic, wife-beating a-hole. To be fair, she beats the sh#t out of him too. I like internal team drama so I'm hoping for the Ultimate Ant-Man, though the old Ant-Man could get physical once in a while. With Edgar Wright set to direct the stand-alone Ant-Man film you can sure it will be hilarious, but his past efforts Shaun of The Dead and Hot Fuzz have shown that he can mix the comedy with any genre and make it work.
 Our Vote: James Spader - Sure, he might be getting up there in age and could stand to lose a few pounds, but this guy has shown that he can pull off the prickish attitude and devious nature required for the role. His turns in Wolf as well as countless 80s films should be enough to convince anyone of this, but if that isn't enough you just need to watch him in Boston Legal. Even better, if he were to be cast along side our choice for Captain America he would already have the on-screen co-star chemistry to bring those awesome moral arguments to life. Additionally, if you've seen The Secretary you know this guy can pull off anything you need him to do, even some ass spanking.
Jason Segel - Forgetting Sarah Marshall, Knocked Up
Jason Bateman - Arrested Development, Juno
Ryan Gosling - Young Hercules, The Notebook
Simon Pegg - Sean of the Dead, Hot Fuzz

Retired New Windsor Town Justice Donald Suttlehan alleges the town agreed to pay the full cost of his medical care after he retired. In May 2009, less than three months before Suttlehan retired, the town passed a resolution requiring elected officials, including town judges, to pay 25 percent of the cost of a family medical plan after retiring.

Salty's at Redondo Beach
Online Reservations
Food and ambiance were excellent. Requested a window table but didn't get one while others without reservations did.
The atmosphere at Salty's is a great representation of NW style, casual dining and menu choices. The seating options are also varied enough that you can satisfy almost all tastes from indoor to outdoor (season permitting). Love the location as it gives the impression of a secret spot only known to a special few. The staff is friendly and accommodating, beverage choices and food options are great and the rustic appeal is very comfortable. We have enjoyed Salty's at Redondo for years and as our kids have grown up my wife and I will spend even more time there.
My family likes to celebrate special occasions at Salty's. I hadn't been for awhile and then had an occasion to dine there twice in two weeks. I was impressed by the change of menu. I had the 3 courses for $ 35 both times. What a great value and great choices too! I loved the food and the sunset too.
Great good, great location...it is always a fantastic choice.
We come here all the time! Whether you have had a stressful day at work or friends in from out of town, Salty's has the remedy for that. Good food, great service and the atmosphere are what will cure the stress or impress the guests coupled with a spectacular view of the Sound. My wife is especially fond of the clam chowder with the Cream Sherry and the Lavender Martinis. The food will serenade your taste buds!
We have celebrated three birthdays at Salty's on Redondo the service has been phenomenal. They have met our requests and expectations every time. We will celebrate many more occasions here.
My husband and I have always enjoyed our dinners at Salty's, both at Redondo Beach and Alki. We love to take our friends with us so they can experience good food and the scenic view at both locations with us.
We really enjoyed our dining experience at Salty's. My visitors from Honolulu always want to go to Salty's for the food, service and great atmosphere!
we were entertaining friends from Sun City Az. and we wanted the best food and atmosphere representing our area. We were able to do so at Salty's. . We were all very impressed with the whole experience. We will be happy to bring our guests there for any reason we can come up with to celebrate! thank you all.
Really a treat especially for my 94 year old dad and 89 year old mother. We all loved it!
Great service and food was amazing! I took my fiancé here for her birthday and Saltys had a few balloons set up and made sure we had a quite table with A great view.
Great lunch, wonderful service. We always enjoy ourselves at Salty's and this was no exception.
Salty's has long been my favorite go-to spot for a special occasion because when I go there, it feels like a celebration of the soul! I had just found out I was selected for a new job and couldn't think of a better to congratulate myself than to take the hubby and have a beautiful meal at Salty's at Redondo. It never disappoints. The ambiance was lovely, the food was delicious, the service was superb. I never had to think of what I wanted or needed next as my every need was attended to immediately. As an added bonus, the views were spectacular on the last evening of summer in the Northwest. Highly, highly recommend!
My children and I took my wife there for her birthday. At first, we were a little worried, however, once we sat down, the hostess immediately commented on my wife's birthday. They brought some helium balloons to the table. The view was very nice and the service was very good. The food was excellent and while it was a long drive for us, we plan to return. I highly recommend going there for eating out as well as special occasions.
This is a place we often choose when wanting to celebrate an event or bring out of town friends to. Reliably great! While we have also enjoyed the Salty's in West Seattle, we prefer the more intimate nature of this restaurant in Redondo;.
Loved the scenic view, corner table next to the water. First time for the buffet and we found the food to be just as great in the morning as well as the night, The Neptune dish was to die for!
Nice selection of seafood options, but the fresh sheet is overpriced. Had weathervane scallops that were small and nothing special. ($36). McCormick and Schmick offers better quality and value. Yet, this venue has a wonder view of south Sound. Great seafood chowder. Next time, I'd do a bowl of chowder and salad with grilled salmon added. Service was great and staff was very friendly and welcoming.
We had guests from China and wanted to have an excellent meal with a great view to show them. Our waiter was excellent, very knowledgable, had a great sense of humor and very attentive. The meal was wondeful and will definetly bring guests here again.
Salty's has long been a favorite of ours. When we have guests visiting we always find time to come here to show off the view, the food and the service. We've never been disappointed.
Salty's was great at accommodating for special occasions. We went for a birthday dinner and they made my partner feel special and even gave us a dining experience with a great view. Delicious food is a usual suspect as well as service. Thank you, Saltys!
Chef Cabrera did a great job with the clam boil. The spicy sausage was added afterwards, and it definitely does make a difference. It should be added right after cooking, it really gives a kick to the broth. What a great time we had with abundant food, great flavors and atmosphere.
Perfect Anniversary Celebration! The food was great and we enjoyed very good service, in spite of the packed crowd. Loved the fact that they have their own parking lot right close by. Excellent variety and very good experience!
Arrived early enough for happy hour. Had an excellent calamari appetizer prior to dinner. Wife had a small steak and I had Saltys pasta and seafood. Both dishes were well sized and very tasty. The servers..all of them are attentive and pleasant....makes for a relaxing meal, We look forward to returning.
Very nice, on the water and the service was outstanding
Sarah, our server, was awesome - attentive and helpful in every way. The food was fresh, delicious and abundant. The experience was wonderful!
We like to bring our out of state guests to Salty's; the view is awesome, the ambience is quaint (in a residential neighborhood but right on the water) and the food is always outstanding. Service is great, servers offer suggestions and special requests are cheerfully filled.
Wonderful seafood as always, but the service was pretty poor at best. We told our waiter that we would like to stretch out things a little between our salads and our main entrée so we could enjoy the wine and the view. we weren't even done with our salads when he showed up with our dinner and pushed it onto an already over-crowded table. he rushed us to finish despite the fact that there was NO ONE waiting on a table on this Thursday evening - there were even empty tables in the place. The service turned an otherwise great dinner into a "we probably should have gone somewhere else" type of evening... I have enjoyed brunch at Salty's many times - probably will not do dinner there again though...
We enjoyed our evening. It was the first day of our relatives/ first visit to the northwest. What a great introduction - dinner at Salty's..
The overall service was good. The food selection is seasonal which is nice so you get to try something new every time you come.
This place has the best Brunch around. I wish I liked fish, because everyone says that their fish, shrimp, and crabs are the best. My parents thought it was really pricey at first, but then when we didn't have to eat the rest of the day, it didn't seem too expensive then! Make sure you make a reservation though! Great desserts too!
Food was of the first order, delicious crab cake and fabulous seafood fettucine. Service was impeccable, friendly, attentive and knowledgeable. Highly recommend this restaurant!
Our host seated at a window so we had a terrific view. Our waiter was very good, and told us about the specials. He was especially attentive to the fact that we were discussing business so he was polite about not interrupting but balanced that with making sure we had everything we needed (Chris). We were there when the restaurant opened at 11:30am. The music was too loud and made it difficult to have conversation but we asked that it be turned down so it wasn't an issue. The food was what we expected. Overall, a great experience.
We do brunch at Salty's relatively often. This time it was another birthday celebration. As always, we are never disappointed and pleased on every level. They never fail to greet by name and make the experience special...Salty's, you've done it again! :-)
I know I just posted about this before, but months later - it's not only just as good as last time, but EVEN BETTER! They've added a few new items and services to make it even MORE enjoyable! We didn't want to leave! Sitting by the window, looking out at the water, sipping coffee, noshing on the finest food - who would want to leave? Again, it's my number one spot to go for brunch! Very easy for handicap access as well, which is rare here. The staff continues to be courteous, thoughtful, sincere, kind and enjoyable to talk with. Like they love their job! That's a rare find itself!
Loved my food and service was excellent! Will make sure I go for brunch.
Good bar staff...good service in the restaurant....great food. A view that can't be beat...especially at sunset!
Excellent dining experience for a special event with family and friends! Great food, service and facility......highly recommend Salty's for your next special event!
Everything from drinks to the dessert just melted in your mouth. We had a fabulous time and can't wait to come try happy hour and brunch!!
A smaller, quieter alternative to Salty's on Alki.
Took customer from out of town. Loved everything about the restaurant. Thanks, Gary
The service was excellent, the food was wonderful. Our wait person was by our table often but not too often - he made our experience even better.
I have been going here for years, it is always great and the service is superb.
We had a very good dinner at Salty's. Food was good as usual and the service was very good. My only complaint was the music in the bar that made having conversation in the restaurant very difficult. They need the bar to be more closed off.
I took my daughter and a friend out to brunch at the Redondo Beach Salty's to celebrate a milestone birthday. The food, desserts, displays, and service were truly amazing. Afterwards we took a stroll on the boardwalk for spectacular photo ops.
The food was great. It was a little hard to find out waiter at times, but the other waiter that helped out was really nice too.
I proposed to my wife here at Salt's at Redondo.I make it a point to bring her here for dinner every year on our anniversary.We started we the crab and artichoke dip which was superb.Then we both had a green salad.For our entrees we both had the surf and turf.We both ordered our steaks cooked medium,mine was perfect but my wife's was between rare to medium rare.Other than that everything was superb.This is the reason I did not give it an overall rating of excellent.Our waiter made up for it though by buying my wife dessert.We will definitly keep coming back to Salty's.
Had the blackened steelhead which was awesome. In the middle of the week on a Wednesday there were few people eating so the usual energetic ambiance was a bit diminished but it was perfect for dinner conversation.
We took Grandma and Aunt Barbara to Salty's at Redondo last Sunday for brunch and had a truly memorable time. The place is quaint, though a bit cramped, and the water view is splendid. There was a ton of food - no scrimping on traditional breakfast items, prime rib, hot fish and chicken dishes, fruit, salads, all the lox, clams, shrimp and crab you can eat, and countless desserts including a kid pleasing chocolate fountain. Everything was plentiful and delicious. Grandma couldn't even find anything to complain about - that's quite an accomplishment! But we were most impressed with the genuinely friendly, helpful staff. Everyone from the hostesses to the chap carving the prime rib to our waiter, John, were delightful. We'll be back!
Have enjoyed everything about this restaurant for years....

Department of Behavioral Health Establishment Planning Committee
Welcome to the Department of Behavioral Health Establishment Planning Committee home page.
On January 11, 2013, Mayor Gray announced the establishment of a new Behavioral Health Department to improve the health and well-being of residents who receive mental health and substance abuse treatment and supports. This home page was created as a tool to solicit comments from our partners and to keep them and the public informed of our progress.
The new department will combine the Department of Mental Health (DMH) and the Addiction Prevention Recovery Administration (APRA) now in the Department of Health, effective October 1, 2013. Mayor Gray included the budget for the new Department in the FY 14 Budget (B20-0198) and established the new Department in the FY 14 Budget Support Act (Subtitle K, B20-0199) adopted by the Council of the District of Columbia on June 26, 2013.
Steve Baron presented the Mayor's vision of how the new Department of Behavioral Health will support a healthier community during the Council Committee on Health public budget hearing on April 18, 2013.
Mayor's FY 14 Budget Support Act (Subtitle K, Bill 20-0199)
Mayor's FY 14 Budget for the Department of Behavioral Health
The new Department of Behavioral Health will integrate treatment and services for residents with both mental health and substance use disorders. The new Department will continue to provide treatment and supports for individuals with mental health conditions only or substance use disorders only. Providers will be trained to assess for both illnesses in order to offer proper treatment.
The Department of Behavioral Health will be established with input and guidance from a Planning Committee led by Stephen T. Baron, Director of DMH who will become the head of the new Department. The Planning Committee defined its membership and functions in a Charter [PDF] and adopted Guiding Principles [PDF]. The Planning Committee implementation process will ensure the active participation of community service providers and residents who receive services from either DMH and APRA and their families. The Planning Committee developed a work plan and schedule that outlines activities that must take place to stand up the new Department on October 1 as well as ongoing activities to build an infrastructure that supports integrated services.We encourage you to email your comments and suggestions regarding your areas of interest to a member of the Planning Committee listed below. Or, you can send comments or questions directly to Steve Baron at Ask the Director. The Planning Committee also will post frequently asked questions, regular reports and notice of any public meetings.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q1. Why are you making this change?
A1. A significant number of residents have mental health and substance use disorders at the same time. Treatment and supports currently are delivered separately which requires people seeking help for both illnesses to navigate two separate agencies. Without integrated treatment, one or both disorders might not be addressed properly. The new integrated system effectively will serve individuals with co-occurring disorders whether they are seeking help for substance use disorders or mental health conditions.
Between DMH and APRA, 86 providers treat 35,000 residents for one or the other disorder with a small number serving both. We want to make sure all providers are competent to assess for both mental health and substance use disorders at the same time so we can design the proper treatment.
In addition, through the establishment of the new department, we hope to focus public awareness and policy attention on the role of behavioral health by engaging all areas of our community— elected officials, advocates, health professionals, researchers and those directly affected by mental illness/addiction and their families. The federal Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) estimates that by 2020, mental and substance use disorders will surpass all physical diseases as a major cause of disability worldwide. We know that treatment is effective and recovery is possible. We are putting a system in place that best supports healthy individuals and a strong community.
Q2. Will this change make services better?
A2. As we learn more about how to support individual recovery and resiliency, research shows that treating both illnesses jointly, rather than separately, is shown to improve client outcomes.
- Mental illnesses and addictions are both biological brain disorders with genetic and/or neurobiological factors.
- Denial and stigma are common barriers to getting treatment.
- Clients will benefit from specific expertise in prevention, assessment, treatment, and knowledge of best practices by clinicians who specialize in substance abuse and/or mental illness, even without a dual diagnosis.
According to SAMHSA, integrated treatment that addresses both mental and substance use conditions at the same time leads to lower costs and better outcomes such as:
- Reduced substance use
- Improved psychiatric symptoms and functioning
- Decreased hospitalization
- Increased housing stability
- Fewer arrests
- Improved quality of life
On the other hand, the consequences of undiagnosed, untreated, or undertreated co-occurring mental and substance use disorders are severe. Studies show that compared to individuals without co-occurring disorders, people with co-occurring disorders were more likely to be:
- Hospitalized
- Homeless
- Incarcerated, or
- Infected with HIV, hepatitis, and other diseases.
Effectively serving individuals with mental health and substance use disorders means early detection and integrated services that are individualized and responsive to all conditions.
Q3. What if I need only mental health support? Can I still get help?
A3. Yes. You will still get treatment and support from the new Department of Behavior Health. Treatment and services will fit the individual need.
Q4. What if I need support only for substance use disorders?
A4. You will still get treatment and support from the new Department of Behavior Health. Some providers may only offer treatment and supports for substance use disorders but they will be trained to assess for both to make sure treatment offered is comprehensive.

The Tennessean
With the announcement of its 2013-2014 season, the Nashville Symphony again showcases its desire to combine classic compositions with contemporary concertos and make the most of its creative surroundings.
But more than that, the upcoming seasonâs lineup, which includes Ben Folds, Amy Grant and Vince Gill, is one carefully culled with the specific goal of buoying the symphonyâs financial viability.
The season announcement comes one week after the symphonyâs board of directors voted not to renew a letter of credit that backs the bonds issued to help build the Schermerhorn Symphony Center. The decision led to a notice that $88.3 million in outstanding bonds are subject to a mandatory repurchase April 1. The symphony and the banks could agree before then on terms that are more favorable.
The symphony has enough cash for operations for the âforeseeable future,â Nashville Symphony President and CEO Alan Valentine said, and it will continue to perform with the goal of presenting an appealing season aimed at increasing ticket sales and revenue.

Ocoee Recreational Attractions
The main attraction of the Ocoee River Gorge is the whitewater course below Ocoee Dam No. 3, which drew thousands to the Olympic competitions in 1996. But if youre not a world-class kayaker (and even if you are), there are plenty of other things to see and do on the Ocoee.
Whitewater Course Model
Near Ocoee Dam No. 1 stands a 1:10-scale concrete-and-wood model of the Olympic whitewater course, built by TVA in 1993 to help guide the U.S. Forest Service in constructing the course. The 30- by 300-foot model, one of the largest and most detailed ever built by TVA, comes complete with running water, stones, churning rapids, souse holes, and standing waves.
Rafting Trips
The four-and-a-half-mile Ocoee whitewater rafting area, located below Ocoee Dam No. 2, attracts more than 200,000 visitors each year. A number of commercial outfitters organize and supply rafting trips down the floatway.
Copper Basin Restoration
Until recently much of the Copper Basin, a few miles upstream from Ocoee Dam No. 3, was barren and bleak, the effect of years of copper mining and smelting. The practice of burning the ore to get rid of sulfur produced acid rain, which denuded an area of more than 50 square miles. Astronauts could once see the red scar on the earth from outer space. Today, thanks to restoration efforts by TVA and other organizations, the Copper Basins recovery is almost complete and the area has been returned to its former beauty.
Recreation Areas
The U.S. Forest Service manages a number of recreation areas in the Ocoee River region. Swimming, picnicking, and camping facilities are available, as well as boat launching ramps.
Parksville Lake
Parksville Lake, also known as Lake Ocoee, is located behind Ocoee Dam No. 1 and is easily accessible from Interstate 75. Lake levels fluctuate very little during the year, and the lake offers scenic vistas of Cherokee National Forest. Visitors can stay at the Forest Service campgrounds or at a commercially operated inn on the lakeshore.

Just a quick question: I have noticed when I boot into Ubuntu my battery goes empty faster, and checking the "time left" option in Leopard and Ubuntu it says Mac will last 3 hours where Ubuntu will last 1.
Is that normal?????
Just a quick question: I have noticed when I boot into Ubuntu my battery goes empty faster, and checking the "time left" option in Leopard and Ubuntu it says Mac will last 3 hours where Ubuntu will last 1. Is that normal????? |
I would say battery life issues are not uncommon with specialized hardware. Particularly with Apple laptops, you will find many such issues in the Ubuntu forums. But the good news is usually you can tweak and adjust your laptop performance until it gets to pretty normal. For example, with my Macbook Air, currently I get about 5 hours in OS X. With similar usage, I found I got about one hour of battery life on 11.10. But it turns out 11.10 has some power management issues due to the 3.0 kernel. Supposedly 12.04 would fix that and I had a couple other issues anyway, so I upgraded to the alpha version. After that, I got about 2 - 2.5 hours. Then I learned about I've made a comparison of watts used and clearly Ubuntu is just using more than OS X. At idle, OS X is using 9-10 watts, while 12.04 is using 12-13. Part of it is due to this mysterious "display backlight" issue I'm running into, which takes about 2-2.5 watts. Update: Here's more info about | |||||||||||||||||||||
The real issue here is the graphic card, this part use a lot of power. Natively, the Leopard OS will manage and switch automatically between the more and the less powerful graphic card. On Ubuntu, you will need to use a patch to be able to select which graphic card you want to use according to what you are doing. I hope it will help you and you will see some improvements. | |||||
3 times is a bit extreme. I suspect at least part of the difference may be due to the difference in algorithms estimating battery usage. Try running your laptop until the battery is dry with MacOS and Ubuntu - you may find that Ubuntu lasted 1.5 hours and MacOS lasted 2 - that would be more likely. I mean - I'm getting 1 hour of battery life with Ubuntu from a cheap 6-year old Compaq laptop... Apple must be making very bad hardware for it to last 1 hour :) | |||||||||||||||||||||

When Google originally said that Google+ would become a social layer on top of everything else the company does, they weren't kidding around. From the +1 button to Search, Plus Your World, Google is adding Google+ integration to as many of their products as possible. But at what expense?
Once again, Google has angered an actor from Start Trek. Yesterday, Wil Wheaton posted on Tumblr (warning: profanity) about a change he noticed while watching videos on YouTube. Instead of the 'thumbs up' and 'thumbs down' icons to vote on a video, he saw a Google+ 'Like' button.
Google has told Danny Sullivan, "We are currently running experiments showing different Google+ buttons in YouTube in order to provide the best user experience." I took a look at screenshots of the buttons being tested, and none of them seem to have a button equivalent to the 'thumbs down.'
A lot of people are angry because with these new buttons, only Google+ users will be able to vote on YouTube videos. I'm not disagreeing with them, but am more drawn to the fact that there will be no "1-click" way to say that you don't like the video.
If you wanted to express negative feedback, you would have to comment. After years of Facebook users begging for a 'dislike' button, why would they remove their equivalent to it?
I'm starting to worry that it's going to become harder to give negative feedback on social networks. While it may not be a lot of work to type out your comment and post it, why is it so much easier to agree with content than it is to disagree?
Video comments seem to be a place for users with strong opinions, whether they are positive or negative. This is because those without strong opinions don't want to take the time to type out their thoughts, which then may be attacked by other users. If you just like a video a little bit, it's much easier to click the 'thumbs up' or 'thumbs down' button and move on to another video.
Why do social networks make it so easy and quick to give content positive feedback, but not negative? Do you agree that both opinions should have 1-click options? Let us know in the comments!

Are there any nutritional and/or herbal supplements that help those with EDS? |
There are no studies to refer to about what effects
nutrition, vitamins, and herbal supplements have on the EDS patient.
But, many EDS patients have had some benefits from certain diets,
vitamins (especially Vitamin C), Zinc, Magnesium, Glucosamine,
Chondroitin, MSM, etc. This is an individual choice. Before starting
any new treatment or supplements always seek a consultation and the
advice from your medical doctors concerning the effects of these
supplements. Intracellular erythrocyte magnesium (RBC Mg) for muscle cramps and migraines were more frequent in Mg-deficient patients. Low potassium is likely to cause muscle weakness and even paralysis. Coghlan HC, Natello G.

AUDIO SOFTWARE can create the illusion that the sounds from a pair of computer speakers are coming from anywhere around a listener's head. The technology has been incorporated into audio chips and game consoles and may someday enhance cellular-phone conversations.
Image: SAMUEL VELASCO
Lying on a beach at Devon on the south coast of England in 1990, Alastair Sibbald had a curious thought. He could hear the seagulls in front of him over the sea and the sheep behind him on the cliffs, each separate and distinct. How was it, he wondered, that he could place these sounds so accurately in space? And could a computer program replicate this three-dimensional aural experience?
Now Sibbald has the answers. As chief scientist at Sensaura, a company based in Middlesex, England, he has spent the past decade developing software that acts like a digital ventriloquist. Sensaura's programs enable ordinary computer speakers, television sets and headphones to create the illusion that sounds are coming from anywhere around a listener's head. The technology has been incorporated into the audio chips used in tens of millions of personal computers. Last November the Royal Academy of Engineering recognized the magnitude of Sensaura's accomplishment by giving the company the MacRobert Award, Britain's most prestigious engineering prize.

Recently, I received an email wondering about diversity of the blog and range of topics involved.
It suggested to narrow down the range so that a certain section of society can be reached.
Yes! From business point of view that thing is right. Create a laser focused blog that concentrates on topic and you have substantial target market in the hand.
But this blog was never meant to create a target market.
This blog was meant to share the thoughts that cross my mind, just for the sake of sharing. There is no intention f creating a market here.
Knowing people and socializing, may be, but not for market creation.
I have enough blogs for that purpose.
This is more about creativity and sharing.
