Done with these forums, due to getting needlessly bullied.
never really understood why that game is so popular it's literally just smash TV with newer graphics. Although my stoner friends rave about it
and I bite into those buns and I just can't believe it.....they forgot the onions.
So awesome, can't wait. This song is 50% of the reason I love this game.

In cooperation with leading research institutions to develop new types of semiconductor detectors, to provide complex tests of the widest possible family of semiconductor detectors, and improve the physical description of their behavior.
The main advantage of semiconductor detectors, compared to gas detectors, is their higher detection efficiency (associated with higher density) and better spectrometric resolution (associated with less energy needed to create one electron-hole pair). Our main concern is promoting the use of semiconductor detectors and their spectrometric characteristics.
Development of semiconductor detectors was allowed by technological development allowing the cultivation of sufficient clean mono-crystals (typically Si and Ge) and creation of various detection structures (conventional diodes, heterogeneous junctions, strips, pixels ...). It has been shown that for detectors is the best to use a plate cut from semiconductor mono-crystal and to create transitions and electrodes directly on the crystal. This can be created by planar technology developed by Jean Honernim and Robert Noyce at Fairchild Semiconductor in 1959. This technology, originally developed for low-cost and rapid production of electronic components (transistors, integrated circuits ...), allows diffusion of different impurities into semiconductor bulk and etching different structures. Detectors manufactured by this technology are generally known as planar detectors . Their specific names, however, are often based on the shape of the collection electrodes. Pad detectors are planar detectors in form of ordinary diodes, i.e., thin plate of mono-crystal extrinsic semiconductor (e.g. N type) where on one side is created metalized rectifying transition (e.g. Schotky contact, PN transition, MIS structure or heterogeneous junction) and on the other side, is created ohmic transition. Strip detectors (e.g. ATLAS SCT modules) are made similar to pad detectors, but the rectifying transition (including metal) is divided into parallel or slightly divergent strips. Pixel detectors (e.g. Medipix) are segmented to pixels where each pixel may play a role of one picture.
Use of planar technology, however, has certain limitations. These restrictions are dictated by the fact that planar technology allows adjustment of only the surface of semiconductors and only just in layers parallel with the surface. Planar technology, therefore, cannot enlarge the active area surface of a semiconductor detector (magnification such areas should achieve an increase in detection efficiency of detector with a conversion layer on the surface). Thickness of planar detectors is limited by distance, on which can free charge carriers drift in electric field for the duration of their life. Typical thickness of detectors such as: 20 mm (Ge detectors), 2 mm (CdTe detectors), 0,3 mm (Si detectors), 0.2 mm (InP and GaAs detectors). Current research is therefore focused on the suppression of these constraints through improved technology, e.g. electro-chemical etching. Detectors manufactured by this technology are called 3D and Semi-3D detectors.

The Albany was recommended to me by a local bookstore merchant and he was right on. Best red trout I've ever eaten! The place is an old tavern with friendly service and reasonable prices.
We stopped in Cheyenne, Wy. just to look around. We walked by this restaurant and on a whim stopped for lunch. Service and food were excellent. Wish it was closer to home. Don't miss it if you are in Cheyenne.
Had a nice dinner here - prime rib sandwich and NY steak both very good, and ample portions. Good service and chow. Very popular with the local folks.
Happy food, cold beer, friendly servers! We got the last home-made Caramel Cream Puff to share for dessert. This place clearly care about its customers and enjoys taking care of them. I was sorry they were closed on Mother's Day! We tourists ended up eating across the way at The Shadows--what a mistake!
Prices are reasonable and service is good and friendly. Menu is varied and food is only average but still worth a visit. Like the atmosphere with Old West photos decorating the walls.
I don't each much beef, but when I do this is a favorite. They do prime rib right, and they have the best horseradish I've ever had. If you like it hot, this is the place.
The Albany has the best Breakfast Burrito in town on Saturdays for lunch. The servers are always very friendly, and the prices are reasonable.
My wife and I ate there during the week if Nov 25-Dec 1. She suffered horrible food poisoning and is still trying to recover. We threw out the food we purchased to eat later. Not fit for human or animal consumption.
Nice people, cute bar, large selection on the menu. The food was decent and the beer was cold. Only had one meal there, but would go back.
More bar than restaurant. 50 minutes to get our food. Paid $22 for an average steak. The menu looked good for someone who had been traveling for two days but it was downhill from there.

Super Bowl Ganja Guacamole
Category: Recipes | Posted on Fri, December, 14th 2012 by THCFinder
Ganja Guacamole
Stones 8 to 10
4 ripe avocados
1 cucumber, peeled with seeds removed, diced
1/2 cup scallions, white and green parts, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup THC oil (recipe follows)
1 jalapeno, chopped
1/2 cup cilantro, firmly packed
Juice of 2 limes
1 teaspoon of salt
Combine all the ingredients in a food processor and mix until the texture is smooth. Reserve one of the avocado pits and keep in the serving bowl with the guac, as it will help keep it fresh and prevent browning. Refrigerate any leftover guacamole in an airtight container with plastic wrap covering the surface. Use within one day.
THC Oil (Cannabis-Infused Oil)
It's not necessary to use first-pressed extra-virgin or estate-bottled olive oil to make your THC oil; an affordable virgin olive oil works nicely. Of course, high-quality ingredients result in a more delicious end product, so if you plan on using your THC oil for salad dressings or to drizzle over veggies and pasta, a fruity extra-virgin olive oil will make all the difference.
Makes 6 cups
6 cups olive oil or canola oil
1 ounce cannabis buds, finely ground, or 2 ounces trimmed leaf, dried and ground.
In a double boiler, slowly heat oil on low heat for a few minutes until you begin to smell the oil's aroma. Add the ground cannabis slowly, stirring until it is fully coated before adding more cannabis. Simmer on low heat for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove the mixture from heat and allow it to cool before straining. Press the plant matter with the back of a spoon to wring all the oil out of it. Compost the leafy remains and save the oil in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two months.

Spokane planning for marijuana stores
Category: News | Posted on Fri, December, 14th 2012 by THCFinder
SPOKANE, Wash. – Spokane is starting to plan for the shops that will open in about a year to sell recreational marijuana.
City Councilman Jon Snyder says the city needs to identify where shops can go, following regulations in the new Washington law that will keep them 1,000 feet away from schools, playgrounds, parks, libraries and transit centers.
Snyder tells KREM ( http://bit.ly/UFPjOO) the city has a lot of work to do to protect the community and establish rules for what could be a lucrative business.

Obama: Time for "conversation" on marijuana laws
Category: News | Posted on Fri, December, 14th 2012 by THCFinder
President Obama said he does not support marijuana legalization but that it's time to have a "conversation" on the matter now that Washington state and Colorado have legalized the drug at the state level.
"This is a tough problem, because Congress has not yet changed the law," Mr. Obama said in an interview with ABC's Barbara Walters. "I head up the executive branch; we're supposed to be carrying out laws. And so what we're going to need to have is a conversation about, how do you reconcile a federal law that still says marijuana is a federal offense and state laws that say that it's legal?"
Though Colorado and Washington voters in November approved ballot initiatives that legalize recreational marijuana use, as well as its regulation and taxation, the drug is still banned under the federal Controlled Substances Act. The Obama administration has yet to say how it will respond, but it has a number of choices: Its options include taking a hands-off approach and letting the states proceed, enforcing the federal law itself and raiding state-sanctioned marijuana sellers once they're established next year, or suing the states.
As Mr. Obama alluded to, some members of Congress are supporting legislation to amend the Controlled Substances Act, to exempt its enforcement against marijuana in states that have legalized the drug. Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy plans on holding a hearing early next year to consider the federal government's options.
Mr. Obama told Walters that while "the federal government has a lot to do when it comes to criminal prosecutions... it does not make sense from a prioritization point of view to for us to focus on recreational drug users in a state that has already said under state law that's legal."
Federal drug law enforcement, however, hardly ever targets individual drug users. Instead, if the administration chose to enforce federal law, it would likely target commercial distributors. Alison Holcomb, the drug policy director for the ACLU of Washington state and an author of the state's marijuana ballot initiative, told CBSNews.com that marijuana use shouldn't be particularly risky for individuals in the state.
"Federal law enforcement resources tend to be focused on major organized crime," she said. "It is very, very rare that marijuana use is subjected to federal enforcement," unless users are on federal lands like national parks. "By and large, the DEA has much better things to do than go after the marijuana users."

A preview of each of Friday night's games involving Cumberland County football teams.
The Bears: Gray's Creek was 0-4 in the series with South View before claiming the Battle of the Bridge trophy with a 38-16 victory last season. Ken McDowell rushed for 247 yards and four touchdowns in that game, and he's gained 1,631 yards with 25 touchdowns through seven contests as a senior. Last week, a 49-0 win at Southern Lee was the Bears' 10th shutout in school history and fourth on the road.
The Tigers: South View's defense will be challenged by an offense that's rushed for 7,360 yards since the start of the 2011 season. That would cover about 84 percent of the 5 miles separating Gray's Creek from South View. The Tigers have allowed at least 27 points in five games but not scored more than 26 in any, so their offense can't afford to commit three turnovers like it did in a 27-3 loss to Jack Britt.
The Falcons: Seventy-First, which ranked No. 2 in the Mid-South 4-A Conference last season in scoring defense, faces a Pine Forest team that has allowed a county-best 14.6 points per game through seven contests. The Falcons, who were off last week, have posted double-figure points in four straight games after being held to six apiece by Scotland and Wilmington Hoggard.
The Trojans: Pine Forest has scored more than 23 points in two games this season, both on the road, and it will be at home tonight before traveling to Douglas Byrd and Terry Sanford the next two Fridays. The key to the Trojans posting a season-high 37 points last week against Cape Fear was a running game that amassed 219 yards, including 113 from Tim Allen. They had four rushing touchdowns, three fewer than their combined total through six games.
The Colts: Cape Fear won 36-26 last year in coach Bryan Till's first game against the school he left as one of Wayne Inman's assistants. The pass-first Colts rushed for a season-high 113 yards last Friday, nearly doubling their previous high of 67 that was established one week earlier, and 5-foot-8 sophomore Kentrell Worley contributed 54 of the yards against Pine Forest. Defensively, Trevaris Whitted and Chipper Cashwell each made eight solo tackles in the loss.
The Bulldogs: Harley Court has punted the ball extremely well, but Terry Sanford's return team lost a costly fumble and committed back-to-back penalties to extend a drive early in a 41-14 loss to E.E. Smith last week. Those mistakes, plus several three-and-outs, are why the Bulldogs had the ball for only five of the first 15-plus minutes. Before that, they got off to a strong start in three consecutive games.
Douglas Byrd: Byrd had possession for nearly 30 of the 48 minutes in a 20-14 win against Westover last Friday. Garry Lewis rushed for more than 110 yards for the fourth straight week, and senior Andrew Byrd had a season-high 101 yards on 14 carries. Elijah Bulger intercepted two passes, raising his season total to four, and Khalil Ashali was a disruptive force with seven solo tackles, including several behind the line of scrimmage.
Western Harnett: The Eagles are unbeaten in the Cape Fear Valley 3-A Conference, a half-game behind Gray's Creek, but the wins have come against the two teams expected to finish at the bottom of the league. Western Harnett rushed for a combined 783 yards and 10 touchdowns in those victories, with fullback Laron Gilchrist gaining at least 135 yards in each game and Amani Manning going for 224 in the first one.
The Wolverines: Westover defeated Union Pines in each of the previous three seasons, outscoring the Vikings a combined 125-20. Henry Howard threw for 161 yards last week against Douglas Byrd, with 80 coming on a touchdown by Kendall Lindsey, but the Wolverines were only 2-for-11 on third-down conversions. They did better on fourth down, converting three of five attempts.
The Vikings: Westover will have to watch out for quarterback Emmitt Carden and running back Shakeem McRae. Carden had a 27-yard touchdown run early in his team's loss to Gray's Creek, and McRae rushed for 112 yards last week in a 51-28 loss to Western Harnett.

In The Truth Machine, a science-fiction novel published in 1996, scientists invent a device that can detect lies with perfect accuracy. It abolishes crime, changes the world, and generally saves humanity from self-destruction. Which is nice.
Could such a machine ever be a reality? Not if our current technology is anything to go by. The polygraph has been around for almost a century, with wired-up offenders and twitching needles becoming a staple of criminal investigations. But there is no solid evidence that the signs it looks for – faster heart rates, shallower breaths and moist skin – can accurately indicate whether someone is telling a lie. Underpinned by fluffy theory and backed by a weak and stagnant evidence base, this lie-detection device is unlikely to get any better.
Inside the brain
Abandoning the polygraph, some scientists have turned to brain scanners. Two technologies have dominated the field. The first uses electronic sensors on a person's scalp to measure an electrical signal, or "brainwave", called the P300, which appears when we recognise something. By looking for this signal, you could potentially tell if someone is hiding knowledge about something they are already familiar with, like a murder weapon. This is certainly useful, but it is a long way from an all-purpose lie-detection method, and two of the key figures in the field have been arguing about how effective this is for many years.
The second technique is functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI), affectionately known as blobology for the colourful pictures it produces. It shows the location of firing neurons in an indirect manner, by tracking the blood flow that supplies them with nutrients and oxygen. Several fMRI studies have shown that some parts of the brain are consistently more active when people tell untruths rather than truths, particularly areas at the very front that help us to suppress unwanted actions. Successful lying, it seems, is mainly about repressing the urge to be honest.
But there is no "centre for dishonesty" in the brain, as such. The areas illuminated in fMRI scans have many functions. They can even be more active when people tell the truth, especially if they are trying to decide whether to be honest or not.
So, how accurate are the scans? In simple lab experiments, they can detect lies around 78 to 85% of the time. "We're not that close to a perfect lie detector," says Giorgio Ganis from the University of Plymouth, who uses fMRI to study deception. "There's also a 15-20% chance of an innocent person being wrongly determined to be a liar."
Tell me lies
What is particularly troubling is that these limitations crop up in simplified and artificial conditions, like volunteers lying about a playing card they have been given. So we know very little about how fMRI would fare at detecting lies in more realistic settings – for example, not a single study has scanned people's brains when they lie during conversations.
There are also different types of lie. If you have been pulled over for speeding, you would need to come up with a tall tale spontaneously. If you were on trial for a crime, you would have more time to rehearse your story. Ganis found that these brands of lie produce different patterns of brain activity: rehearsed ones are accompanied by a weaker buzz in so-called action-repression areas, and a stronger one in memory centres.
Lie detection also depends on a person's memories, which are subjective and fallible. In 2008, Jesse Rissman from Stanford University showed that fMRI scans can reveal if volunteers thought they had seen a face before, but not if they had actually done so. If people are convinced of their lies, or if they have simply forgotten crucial information, the scans will not pick that up.

If it pleases the powers that be, I'd like to introduce a new RP.
Our story begins in the year 2045 in Moscow, shortly before WWIII erupts.
For the last twenty-two years, believing himself to be a god, a man known as the Ascendancy has ruled an empire known as the Central Custody of Dominion, which stretches across Eurasia.
However, as prophesied, other gods are rising across the world: men and women born with the ability to channel the Power. Most of these Wilders die from from never having been able to control the Power they wield, in fact, most are unaware they ever channeled this unknown power at all. Indeed, the World Health Organization has assumed these strange deaths to be caused by some unidentified communicable disease. Yet, slowly, some are surviving the channeling Sickness long enough to realize they are different.

...because Ovi Suite is one of worst apps I've ever used. If you won't support PC Suite, I'll buy another brand of phone. PC Suite is the best app for connecting my phone to computer I found, it only needs a Linux version.Ovi Suite crashes and it's sloooooooooow.

In fact, it does make perfect sense to go buy another brand if the one you have is not up to the task.
I agree with that sentence, however, if one goes out and buys a phone (or in fact anything else) and it or its supporting software does not do the tasks you specifically want then the only person to blame is yourself for not checking first. So there is not much point complaining to others about ones own poorly made choice.

When bad things happen, good people band together.
That has happened in a number of ways since Millis teen Taylor Sack was paralyzed in a skiing accident in February.
There have been creative fund-raisers throughout the region to help the family deal with the medical costs of his treatment. "Yoga for Taylor,'' planned Sunday, April 21, starting at 11 a.m., at Villari's Martial Arts, 10 Roxanna St., Framingham, will help raise money for renovating the family's home to accommodate his new needs.
The class will be led by Jennifer Prohaska, and suggested donation is $20.
Reservations can be made by emailing email@example.com.
I try not to use this space as a place for plugging events. We have a Calendar section in the paper as well as online.
But once in a while, I break my own rules, particularly when it's something that hits so close to home.
Sometimes it's local. Sometimes it's life. There are seeds for future columns here and back stories on columns past.

In August 2008, to celebrate the launch of our first city guide video, we ran a competition offering you, our customers, the chance to win a 'Round-the-World' trip worth US$3,000. Over the following four months we received good videos, bad videos, and downright odd videos.
Judged by Hostelworld Editor Colm Hanratty with the help of fellow Hostelworlder Eoin White, they filtered out the good from the bad to thirty videos. Then they looked at all these once more to see what video truly captured everything about backpacking. It was an extremely tough decision, but in the end there could be only winner - a video entitled 'My Amigos' by Australian Grace Conlan.

The A-2 Flight Jacket was made famous by U.S. Army airmen who wore them as a testament to their bravery, independence and skill. Service tested in 1930, the A-2 was adopted as the regulation Army Air Corps flying jacket on May 9, 1931. Its style continues to be a perfect example of form following function.
The A-2 jacket is available and true to the original design in russet or seal brown horsehide or medium brown goatskin.
True to the original Air Corp Spec:
One piece back, 2 piece sleeves. Talon nickel finish zipper with leather puller tabs, single entry pocket with luxurious curved shape flaps. Epaulets boxed stitched, 1 3/4" tapering down to 1 1/2". Hanger loop boxed stitch through and through. Stand up collar, snapped down collar tips. 8-10 stitches per inch, reinforced pockets corners and wind flap, provide solid construction that backed by life time warrantee.
Its lining of 100% cotton and 100% wool knit cuffs & waistband is also true to the original. Finish touch of A/N inspection stamp and Air Corp stamp on the lining.
If you like to create your personal specifications or modified colors, shape or components please visit the A-2 custom made jacket page.

Extremely satisfied Review by Michael S. Goldfarb
I just wanted to tell you that after a few days of wear, I am THRILLED with the seal A-2 that I got from you last week. It remains a mystery to me why folks think that they have to spend $200 more (plus overseas shipping and import duty) to get a proper horsehide repro!
Anyway, I just wanted to report that I'm extremely satisfied - and very bummed out that it's going to be too warm to wear the jacket most of this week! Best of luck, and keep up the great work. (Posted on 7/21/10) -
Gorgeous, perfect fit Review by Al Sagoto
Wow! The jacket arrived today and it is gorgeous. It fits like a champ too, and that inside pocket you rigged is better than I could ever do on my shoe machines. I've been sitting in my easy chair gently hand rolling the leather all over to get it limbered up and broken-in, and man, that Italian horse is some nice stuff. I like the way you used the flankier belly cuts for the sleeves, because it's so firm it would be hard to break in otherwise. I pulled out last year's A-2 for comparison, and this new leather is head and shoulders above the old batch--firmer and thicker.
Don't know what I'll do with my old one now. Any collectors' market for 2nd hand US Authentic jackets yet?
I'm very pleased, and will let you know how the new one wears in.
Cheers (Posted on 7/21/10) -
As authentic as any jacket can be Review by Steve Snyder
Thank you for your assistance in resolving the small problem we had with my jacket. I just wanted to mention that your Authentic A-2 russet horsehide jacket has already become my favorite in the short time I have owned it.
I get numerous compliments on the quality and fit from "regular" folks as well as some very envious glances from Confederate Air Force members, I won't be leaving it setting in the hanger.
It is as authentic as any jacket can be, currently made.
Thanks again for your excellent service and product.
I hope everything is returning somewhat to a more normal environment in your part of the country. Our thoughts and prayers are with you, your friends and relatives.
Please contact me if you have any questions. (Posted on 7/21/10) -
No comparison to other brands Review by Bob Brunn
I just received an A-2 from you and the quality is outstanding. I also own an A-2 from Cooper and there is no comparison. I work in the automotive field and wear the cooper to work and save the US Auth for other use. I don't want to get her dirty.
Saving up for a G-1.
Thanks and keep up the good work! (Posted on 7/21/10) -
Outstanding Review by Eric W. Barry, M.D.
Outstanding! My size 42R Horsehide Russet A2 (that I exchanged for a
44R) arrived today, and I couldn't be more pleased. The color and fit are perfect, the new leather smell is intoxicating, and the custom name tag you guys made for me is exactly what I wanted. I'm glad I went with the smaller size, as the fit is consistent with 1940's photos I've seen of Jimmy Doolittle, Jimmy Stewart, and others. (Okay, 1960's pictures of Bob Crane and Steve McQueen, too.)
I've spent the last half hour comparing features and details on my new jacket with photos in Jon Maguire's books (and Eastman's Golden Book!) and I've concluded that US Authentic does a great job duplicating the WWII A2 for a very reasonable price. In addition, your service is so prompt, courteous, and efficient, it makes my head spin!
You've got one very satisfied ex-Green Beret/ex-Army Doc up here in Maine! Thanks. (Posted on 7/21/10) -
You have a customer for life Review by K. Foley
I am writing this letter to thank you for making a great product. My order was put in the mail on Sat and on Tues the jacket arrived! That is 1 day shipping. The wrong size was ordered by me so i called at 8am to return it. I was given a return # and 3 days later the new jacket arrived! The customer service of your company is fantastic and the A-2 you produce is unbelievable, the weight of the jacket is just right, craftsmanship is perfect, color is perfect, price is $200 less than Eastman, Lost Worlds. Mr. Dover you have a customer for life! BTW whoever crafted my jacket should receive a pay raise. Thank you. (Posted on 7/21/10)
Great and fast service Review by Guus
I would like to thank U.S. Authentic for the great and fast service and for the quality of their products. Just recently I ordered a seal brown A2 and got it the next day. It's a fantastic jacket. Keep up the great work. (Posted on 7/21/10)
Excellent Review by Jonathan Glazer
Just got the A-2 yesterday. Excellent as usual!! I think the A-2 fits me a little better in the 42 than the 40. I love the jacket already and am wearing it today. My other two G-1s that you made me got away to my two sons so I will probably be ordering another G-1 plain-no insignias in the next couple of weeks. (Posted on 7/21/10)
Quality service Review by Bob Jacobs
If you are interested in an authentic and quality A-2 Flight Jacket, US Authentic is the place to purchase it. I received a seal brown horsehide A-2 from US Authentic as a Christmas gift. Mr. Dover stands behind his products with quality service. Compare other A-2 jackets on the A-2 Jacket Website and see for yourself. C****r, A****x, and Sc**t do not have the quality you find with Us Authentic. (Posted on 7/21/10)

- Fantastic Goatskin A2 Review by David
- I wish to thank you for the fantastic Goatskin A2 jacket you made for me. This jacket is by far the nicest I own. The details are precise, and the fit is just fantastic. This jacket is very comfortable, and has an athletic fit which is just what I was expecting. Many people on various flight jacket forums such as The Fedora Lounge has given glowing testimonies about the great product you make. They were right on the money. Again, thank you very much for producing a 1st rate A2 jacket that the average person can afford right here in the good old U.S.A. I can not imagine any way to improve your product. It is just perfect. In closing I would like to say once again, Thank You. (Posted on 11/11/13)
- Magnificent Historical Likeness Review by Bill P
- What can I say? A high end true to history perfectly sized work of art. I finalized my order on Monday and received my custom jacket seven (7) days later. My A-2 is replete with sewn on leather squadron and 8th Air Force patches, and name tag. Nickel finish Talon zipper and thick horsehide. Good old Shauli has rally worked hard to create a first class operation with one stop shopping for all your needs and to meet every budget. (Posted on 11/5/13)
- Perfect Custom A-2 Review by Bill
- I've been looking for an A-2 for a while and researching it meticulously. I was originally looking at Gibson and Barnes, however their website had "issues" and they were none too helpful on the phone. At 5'4" and 170 lbs I have a hard to fit build and I am very picky. Shaul was patient with my many questions re: fit, leather, lining etc. I ordered the A-2 in horsehide with a number of custom options. It arrived only days after I placed the order. It fits perfect, is of the best quality and is more than I expected. I highly recommend US Authentics. (Posted on 10/7/13)

Latinas/os represent our nation's largest and fastest growing ethnic group, yet there remains a striking lack of knowledge regarding the unique mental health needs facing the Latina/o population—and a troubling shortage of culturally competent mental health professionals prepared to help meet those needs.
The Chicago School's Center for Latino Mental Health (CLMH) works to bolster understanding of and access to culturally competent mental health services through scholarly research, community service, and education. The Latino Mental Health Providers Network, an initiative launched in 2009 by CLMH to increase the cultural competency of and build referral networks among Latino mental health providers in Chicago, will serve as a model for a national effort to increase mental health services to Latinos.

And Lamont has admitted he has lost the battle to regain fitness and has hung up his boots, finishing his career with 29 caps for Scotland having made his debut against Wales in 2005.
Lamont also leaves Glasgow Warriors with the club having secured a Pro12 play-off berth and the former Sale Shark and Toulon back insists he will now be a fan for the rest of the campaign.
"I'm sad to be retiring from professional rugby but I've been struggling with injury for some time now," he said.
"It's clear I won't be able to get back to the level I was playing at before.
"Despite a tough time personally it's been a privilege to see the boys [Glasgow] do so well and make such good progress this season.
"It's fantastic to have been at the club during this exciting time and I wish them all the very best for the remaining games this season."

Neutron-rich nuclei can sometimes be regarded as consisting of two units which oscillate resonantly together. Helium-6, for instance, has been previously observed to oscillate in the form of a "giant dipole resonance" (GDR), in which two protons form one unit and four neutrons form the other unit, and a "spin dipole resonance" (SDR) in which nucleons with their spins point up oscillate in opposition to nucleons whose spins point down. Now, for the first time, another resonance has been observed, the "soft dipole resonance" (soft-DR), in which two neutrons oscillate against a unit consisting of two neutrons and two protons.
In the figure to the left, L stands for the change in isospin (a proton changing into a neutron in the collision process in which the Helium-6 was created), while S refers to the net spin of the nucleus. The figure to the right shows the energy levels involved in the various states of the nuclear resonance.

When you have a jade cong as your base you pretty much can't go wrong with your lamp. This luminous lamp from Spaltana is made from a solid jade cong, a Chinese jade artifact which is square on the outside and circular on the interior.

The Spaltana lamps are made of veined dark green jade and each pillar has a decorative motif carved in each of the four corners. The jade cong sits on a poplar base and the lamp shade is made from pongee silk. These rare table lamps sell for $1800.

Spencer's at the Waterfront
Online Reservations
Service was outstanding. Very knowledgeable regarding the food and wine list, but not "stuffy". Very relaxed atmosphere and boy, what a view as the sun was setting!
This restaurant is right on the scenic waterfront in Burlinton, ON. It is set in a nice parkland with great views of Lake Ontario. The hospitality was outstanding, the service was friendly and the food was excellent. There is a lot of variety on the menu and there are usually one or two game items like bison or elk. If you don't want game, there are multiple other choices. A highlight: excellent apple martinis.
Really can't say enough about Spencer's. The server was able to find that balance between interacting enough while not being intrusive. All of the food was quite simply perfect. Perhaps the best steak I have ever eaten. And whatever you do, do not forget to leave room for their desserts. Very good range and selection on their wine list as well.
Very pleased with our dinner and experience. Waitress was very kind. Will return again.
Place gets a lot of hype . Food -quite good, not "knock em dead". Room looks really nice but loud, nothing to deaden the sound in a glass room. The service was DEAD slow, and they were not that busy. Sat 10 - 15 minutes before we were offered drinks, but no explanation of specials - had to call waiter back to ask - App came quickly once our order was taken. Over an hour before mains were served and over an hour to finish, desert & go. Waiter's visits were spread out, service slow. Your web site says price under $ 30 but few mains < $ 30 and any bread was an a' Lacarte order - Few wines < $ 50. Yes, it was nice, but there is better food,service & value locally. Visit lasted 2:15- web says that's the max - we expected 1:30 - 1:45
We enjoyed our time at Spencers a great deal, had terrific food (amazing caesar salad!) and the scenery of Lake Ontario could not be beat, especially on a warm evening. It had been seven years since I was here and never had a chance to make it out again until last week. Had a super time, thank you!
Good food, good service, good setting. good value.
the food, service, atmosphere was fantastic!!! One thing though, it was very loud and hard to hear the server. I would go back tho!!!!
Had a great Sunday Brunch at Spencer's on the Waterfront. The selection of food was great and the service was wonderful. It was a bit crowded, especially at the salad bar and dessert table but the lines seemed to move along. Dining outside was great. Can hardly wait to go back.
Wonderful location, very helpful and friendly staff that made our lunch special. Thoroughly enjoyed our meal & it was a lovely touch to serve us a surprise anniversary dessert. We would definitely recommend Spencer's to our friends and hope to come back soon! Warmest Thanks
My wife and I are celebrating our 50th this year and our choice of Spencer's was a natural. We have dined there before and enjoyed it very much. I arranged with our server Ola to have my wife's gift delivered as a surprise with our dessert and the plan went perfectly with the help of the staff. Spencer's also provided champagne toast and free dessert which was a very pleasant surprise. We had a wonderful time and it will always be a special memory. Thank you very much.........Jim & Diane Miller
the service and food exceeded our expectations. we were delighted by the flavours and presentations of the plates. our wait-person was warm, friendly, and extremely helpful. we felt very much at home. the prices, we felt, reflected excellent value.
Late Sunday evening dinner with the family - probably one of the last of the weekend's guests for the staff but you'd not notice any difference in service. That's the one constant - friendly, considerate, informed staff. Food, as usual, was good. Steak impeccably cooked, fish was delicate and flavourful, dumplings were delicious. I have just one complaint about my burger - it's almost impossible to eat 'conventionally' - ended up with a knife and fork - but don't change a thing - it's messily great.
Great Service, Great food although the portion a bit small. Good view and Good service
My wife and I went to Spencer's for our 10th anniversary and had a fantastic evening. The location and scenic view is perfect, the ambience was just right and the service was top notch. For an appetizer we had the calamari in a lime, cilantro pesto, which was far and away the best calamari either of us had ever experienced. My wife had the organic greans salad, which was very good and I had the organic sprout salad which was absolutely incredible. My wife had a tenderloin steak and I had a the pickerel and black rice for our main course dish. Both meals were excellent with just the right portion size. Dessert for the wife was the chocolate mousse cake which was fantastic. I had the crème brule, which was the only let down of the night.
Wonderful restaurant for special occasions; food is always good and service is cheerful, attentive but not hovering.
I had the Heritage Chicken. It was very tender and good but there was hardly any vegetables. I wish you could add some soft cooked carrots or beans to go with the chicken. That would make it perfect.
The food was delicious and our service was outstanding. This was a romantic evening and everything went according to plan with the exception of the noise being generated from an exuberant group and with the open layout, there was no way to control the sound from traveling - I wouldn't want to complain about a group having fun, but it was not great environment for an intimate dinner for two from a sound-level perspecitve.
Spencer's has never disappointed. The food is great and the service is attentive without being overbearing. The location and decor are impressive and very relaxing, a great dining experience
Excellent service by Kristine. Extensive wine selection and varied menu with fresh food, unusual pairings. Thoroughly enjoyed our evening.
We celebrated our friends birthday and had an amazing evening. The food was out of this world and the service was excellent. I would recommend this restaurant for any special occasion. Looking forward to returning soon.
The combination of the friendliness of the staff, the aromatic smells that surround the restaurant, the romantic view of the lake, and the ambiance of the live pianist make this one of The Best restaurants I have ever visited in years! The staff is helpful, polite and funny, this would include the chefs as well! The overall scenery is amazing, whether inside or out!
The dining experience at Spencer's is great unless you are there during a shift change. This happened to us because we had a late lunch. Everything began quite nicely with excellent staff taking care of us but by the time we got to dessert it felt like we had been completely forgotten. Our regular server who had pardoned herself every time she left us had disappeared without a word. A few servers looked after us eventually but not with the same interest or enthusiasm. It was a bit disappointing after such a great beginning to our meal. Recommend sitting in the booths if you like to have a quieter meal- as the main area can get quite loud at peak times.
innovative menu and wonderful service.... all overlooking Lake Ontario. Highly recommended for a special meal.
Spencers has become our "go-to" place to meet a couple we met on vacation several years ago. We were seated in a booth along the water side of the restaurant. Great spot for chatting without a lot of other conversations around us. The crab legs were a huge hit. Perfectly cooked, fresh and were excellent all by themselves. Lots of other choices of sea food, salads, breakfast items and hot plates. I had lamb, my husband had roast beef. Both were very good although my lamb was very well done and sliced very thin...not a big complaint at all but it made the dish more "ordinary" than outstanding. Our waiter was one of the best we have ever had at Spencers'. Extremely accommodating and kept our appetite for tasty ceasars, well satisfied.
Elegant environment, excellent food, attentive service. A real hot spot, and busy on Friday night.
Excellent meal with family. Everyone enjoyed themselves.
Great place to get together with sisters (or friends). Relax with a bottle of wine and enjoy the company as well as an excellent lunch. Made for a great day.
We've been here several times... and it's always great however this time it was outstanding. Fabulous food and beautifully presented along with attentive service. Loved that we could bring our fave wine and happily paid the $35 corkage fee. Beautiful views too!
I took a client here for lunch. She enjoyed her meal very much. She had the pasta with roasted chicken and raved about it. I had the dumpling appetizer as my main with a soup starter. The dumplings were deep fried and a little greasy for me but the service was wonderful and the view lovely even on a cold cloudy day. Though the restaurant does not guarantee a window seat if requested this did honour this request for me which made it that much more enjoyable for the client I was entertaining. I recommend this restaurant often and will continue to.
Lunch was great,beautiful view! Never disappoints!
Great ambiance, friendly engaging waitress (sorry i forgot her name) and good food
- salads and soup, sea bass, mussels, hamburger, pasta (special order) and artisan bread plate - all very good; sea bass exceptional - waitress was friendly, accommodating and aware of us without being suffocating - we eat at the restaurant perhaps 3 or 4 times per year - many 30 somethings populated this restaurant which may partly account for a higher than average noise level; not overwhelming but noticeable
Missed dinner reservation but with lunch menu we had a fabulous time, the server, Christine was absolutely fantastic, kind, very informative on the menu and all the food was good specially bread tray. We had party of 5, everyone enjoyed. definitely we will go there again..
Ten of us met at Spencer's for a class reunion - we stayed for more than 3 hours. We had a great time! The waitress was so cheerful and helpful. The view added to our enjoyment. We will definitely meet there again. Many thanks.
We enjoyed a wonderful experience at Spencer's. We were celebrating an engagement and the special touches provided by the restaurant made the experience very memorable. Quality food served by a server that was excellent and very personable. I will recommend this location. Thank You
Overall, an excellent experience. It was my first visit, and a regular spot for my date. Our server was fantastic, and I wish I could remember her name to say as much here. She had knowledge recommendations and was engaging and energetic throughout the evening. Despite reserving late in the week for a Saturday night, they accommodated my requests for a lakeside view and brought out a special dessert for my date's birthday. The food was excellent; I'm not a foodie, but recognize quality when I have it. The only somewhat negative comment I have is the pricing. It's not cheap. But it's beautiful, delicious, romantic, and inviting. I'll be going back!
I have never been disappointed in Spencer's whether it is in the summer or winter,for business or personal.
Our waitress, Christine, was knowledgable about the menu, and answered our questions very easily. She was warm, friendly, and attentive without being too intrusive.
SUPERCALIFLAGILISTIC...........I will be back for sure! Thank you for making my day with perfect service and excellent, sophisticated food!
This was the most recent of many fine experiences at this location. Always a pleasant dining adventure - wait staff very helpful and knowledgeable.
Amazing food!! Great atmosphere! Highly recommended!
We had a fabulous time celebrating my friends birthday. The food and service was great.
Plain old terrific. Sitting by our beautiful lake with delicious food and terrific service...what more could you want?
This restaurant is in a beautiful location on the waterfront in Burlington. Close enough for Hamilton residents. The food is incredibly delicious as well as appealing. It is a bit pricey, but worth it for a nice night out.
I've been to the King Edward and Hot House for Brunch buffet and this place takes the cake! I live in Markham and if I had to choose between the three I would go to Spencer's hands down! It's definitely worth the one hour drive to get there! The waiters were very attentive, the food felt a lot more fresh compare to the other brunch buffets I've been to. I just couldn't believe the variety of drinks they offered, we went for the early bird brunch and they offered juices, smoothies, cappuccinos, lattes, coffee, tea. After the early bird they offer mimosas and Caesars! Overall, I had an amazing experience and you can expect me back here again!
Spencer's, as always, provided a great dining experience with delicious food, great atmosphere and superb service.
We had the Shanghai lobster which was amazing. 1 person can eat a full lobster as half a lobster might have left me a bit hungry. My wife had the duck breast, although she didn't enjoy that meal quite as much as I did. The presentation was great and the sides/dessert were very nice. Overall, we really enjoyed Spencers and would go back in a heartbeat!
Amazing selection of brunch foods - complete with a mimosa and it was the perfect Sunday! Croissants were warm and fresh, toffee bread pudding was delicious and eggs benedict to die for.
This is my second time at Spencer's and both times were amazing. It felt like we were at a resort. Food quality and selection is amazing, as is the service. The staff are very attentive. They change your cutlery often (not common at most buffets), fold your napkins when you are away from the table, etc. There is also very relaxing live music in the background. They are also very accommodating if you are bringing a baby or a child. They will make sure you have hot water to warm up food, a cozy spot to sit in that is out of the way of human traffic (just make sure to give them advance notice, as it does fill up on Sundays). It is definitely worth it, especially if you go for the early bird special!

So I made the switch
Went and used my upgrade for an iPhone 5. I still love the blackberry and all of you guys have been great to me. I'm still going to use this site. I just want to say thanks to all you that helped me with my issues with the phone. And I hope to see all of you in the forums for the new model blackberry
I hope you like your iPhone. I tried iPone (3GS) and Android before, but never liked the touch keyboard and email programs, so I am back to Blackberry (BB 9900). The onlydisadvantage I see might be a little bit slower browser. But then, 99% of the time I use my PC or Laptop to browse the internet.
You did the tough part which was making the choice.
Make sure you educate those looking to buy a phone going forward. There is a different platform for everyone. Unfortunately a lot of people just by default go to iphone without knowing the advantages of Android, iOS and the new BB10.
Good luck and we will look forward to your next post "So I made the switch... the BB10 phone my buddy has is so amazing" - 11-30-2012, 09:57 AM #5

Thank you to all of you. I've had 4 different blackberrys. A nexus s 4g. And now the iPhone. I like this phone. It's solid. I do miss the real keyboard but that 9930 I had was just giving me too many problems. I can't thank you guys enough for being so helpful.

I had BB for years and switched to iphone. The iphone is nice with all the apps. But the virtual keyboard sucks!!!!!!!!! I also have an ipad that does the same thing, so I am looking forward to BB10 and possibly switching back. Then I'll have a great phone with keyboard but have the ipad I can tether to it for different things needed.

I'm back with a little update. This iPhone is Muhammad better than the blackberry. Battery life is outstanding And it charges from 10% to dang near full in about an hour. The MP3 player function is second to none

I've heard then 5's battery life is quite good. The 4S I have for work has pretty crappy battery life. Roughly similar to my 9900 (a little worse actually) and I considered that device to have terrible battery life. The charging is nice.
Odd that you talk about the MP3 player being 'second to none'. I don't find anything particularly memorable about it. It does its job but I haven't given it a second thought.
The podcast app is truly atrocious on iPhone. I think Steve Jobs would have killed the team responsible for that. I can't believe it ever got out the door. - 12-07-2012, 01:23 AM #20
I hope you mean the mp3 player interface and not the audio playback quality because the iPhone 5, as well as any of the iPhone series are not known for stellar audio quality. The better the quality of cans or IEMs the worse they sound compared to the 9930 or the S3 playback. The lesser the quality the IEMs, the less noticeable the difference. I've compared the 5 listening to mp3 320, mp3 VBR, AAC 320 and even Apple Lossless and Wav and while ok, definitely not tops in quality. I may be too much of an audiophile but it's very evident to me when using a pair of Westone 3s. The 9930 isn't my choice for music playback either but it does handle the lossless formats better, and it at least supports Flac which is what I predominantly record in. That all being said, I don't consider any iPhone nor any BB worthy of quality audio playback. I prefer a dedicated DAP or my PB.
There are trolls in BlackBerry clothing among us. Report and never reply to obvious troll posts, they will die without responses from you. - 12-07-2012, 11:58 AM Thread Author #21
I mean the MP3 player function. The fact that it is an iPod. I don't know about all that technical jargon.

Did the Sandy Hook Shooting Prove the Need for More Gun Control? >
Parents Should Not Have to Doubt Their Children's Safety in School
It's not about banning all guns, it's about gun safety
December 19, 2012
Earlier this year I got a call from my children's school in Seattle that they were in lockdown. A mass shooting had happened nearby and they hadn't yet found the gunman. My son called me from under his desk using a friend's cell phone to tell me what was going on.
Thankfully my kids were fine. But the 20 children and six adults who faced a gunman in Sandy Hook Elementary School last Friday weren't.
There have been 16 mass shootings this year in the United States alone that have risen to the level of national news, as well as many mass shootings that don't ever make it into the national dialogue. In fact, each day 34 people are murdered with guns in our nation. This is not okay.
This cannot become the new normal. Parents shouldn't have to hesitate, even slightly, wondering if our kids will be safe when we drop them off at school, the mall, or the movies.
[See a collection of editorial cartoons on the Newtown shooting.]
It's time for a change.
At MomsRising we're hearing from our more than one million members that they're tired of outdated gun safety laws that fail to protect our children and our communities. People are coming together to stand behind the following principles:
- Universal background checks are needed for all gun purchases, including those purchased at gun shows and on the Internet.
- An assault weapon ban, which also limits high capacity magazines, is necessary. Banning rifle mags, belts, and drums with more than 10 rounds of ammunition; handgun magazines, belts, or drums with more than 15 rounds; shotgun magazines, belts, or drums with more than 10 rounds; and any firearm that has a fixed capacity of more than 10 rounds of ammunition must happen now.
- A federal gun trafficking statute with real penalties must be put in place to stop the illegal sales of guns between state-to-state and international jurisdictions. This would also cover straw purchasers, who buy a gun for someone else who is prohibited from purchasing a gun and later uses the gun to commit a crime.
[See a collection of political cartoons on gun control and gun rights.]
This isn't about banning all guns; this is about gun safety and making sure that nonmilitary people don't have weapons for mass killing in public spaces and near our children.
It's long past time for Congress to act. Our nation needs commonsense laws that regulate the types of guns people can buy and who can buy them. And the National Rifle Association either needs to get on board or step aside. The very lives of our children depend upon it.

Category: Israeli names for boys popular names in Israel
Israeli Baby Names
To commemorate the Feast of Purim this weekend and the other major Jewish holidays coming up on the calendar, we turned to Israel-resident Hannah Katsman for an overview of current trends in Israeli baby names.
When Israelis are choosing names for their babies, they tend to focus on meaning as much as the sound of the name. And even though Israel has become more westernized, most parents continue to choose Hebrew names.
It's true that most traditional biblical names like Rivka (Rebecca) and Moshe (Moses) cannot be considered trendy except in the most religious circles. Yiddish and other ethnic names are out, as are the feminization of biblical names like Israela, Raphaela and Shimona or Simona–though Gavriella is one that is coming back.
The most popular Israeli baby names are short, rarely over two syllables, and they are often unisex.
There are differences among the various Jewish communities in Israel, with some names found only in secular communities and others only in religious ones. Secular Israelis don't usually give middle names, while religious ones do. They might choose a modern name for the first name, and a more traditional one for the second name, after a relative.
Trends in Israeli baby names include nature, weather words (boy—Sa'ar, storm), and Israeli place names (unisex—Yarden, Jordan). Other popular themes are water (unisex—Agam, lake), light, music (unisex—Tzlil, note), animals, and angels like Uriel. A few biblical names have made a comeback or stayed in style, including Daniel (unisex), Noa (girl), Rachel (girl), and Assaf (boy).

The following Federal Communications Commission (FCC) guidelines required for operation of WLAN systems were created to help mitigate interference to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Terminal Doppler Weather Radar (TDWR) from Wireless LAN systems operating outdoors in the 5470-5725-MHz band. The FAA has reported interference to many of their radar systems from WLANs operating specifically in the 5600-5650-MHz TDWR band, as well as from operation of WLANs on adjacent channels.
Note: These installation and operation guidelines apply to new systems being installed outdoors as well as current systems already installed and operating.
1. Operation in the 5600-5650-MHz band is not authorized for 5-GHz WLAN systems, whether operating indoor or outdoors. This does not pose a problem for Cisco® WLAN since this band is not accessible for Cisco products.
Use of indoor-only equipment outdoors can lead to FCC enforcement action, such as fines or requirements to disable the system. This includes installations where the access point is placed indoors and the antenna is placed outdoors, as well as installations involving retractable roofs (for example, football stadiums).
2. For WLAN systems being installed outdoors, the following requirements must be met.
Note: Cisco will be disabling channels 116 and 132 for outdoor systems in the future, the instructions in (d) only applies to systems that currently have the channels enabled.
