Amazing! — Randy is an amazing tutor. He is always so positive, upbeat and helpful. My daughter is super shy, and he always finds a way to get her to open up during her guitar lessons. She has learned great songs, but more than that, she has gained confidence because Randy always makes her feel like she's the best, even when she makes mistakes. He just has this way of making her feel like she can play anything ...

2012 Solar Rock CANCELLED for March 18
Saturday, March 17th, 2012Email from Solar Rock organizers:
Dear Solar Rock participants,
Rock bands can't perform in the rain, and that's why we've decided to cancel this year's Solar Rock event. Also, we didn't want to put our food vendors in a position to lose money and, most importantly, we were worried the strong winds (45 mph gusts are predicted) would present a safety hazard with all the tents our vendors would set up in the park.
We were hoping the storm would pass us by, but that now looks very unlikely. I hope our decision to cancel the event today, rather than waiting until the last minute on Sunday morning, will allow some of you to save a little money or, at the very least, give you time to plan something else fun for your Sunday afternoon.
Thank you all for your support of Solar Rock this year and in the past. I'm not yet sure if we'll try and do another solar-powered event this year (we do have 200 Solar Rock t-shirts to unload), but if we do I'll let you know.
If you're bummed that you missed a chance to learn about the many benefits of solar power, I'd suggest attending the Solar Potluck organized by Citizens for Solar in April. More on that event here: http://citizensforsolar.org
Cyclovia and the Water Festival will still go on as planned.
Coley Ward | Marketing + Membership Manager | Food Conspiracy Co-op | (520) 624-4821
And Coley added that vendor fees will be refunded.
For my previous blog about the March 18 events (click here). The Gloo Factory open house will also still go on, 2 to 6 p.m., along w/ Cyclovia and the Water Festival.
If you want one of those 200 Solar Rock t-shirts mentioned above, contact Coley. And plan on attending that Solar Potluck on April 28, at Catalina State Park (11570 N. Oracle Road, near Mile Post 81), 10:00 am – Sunset.

Product Details
Would you like to update product info or give feedback on images? |
This single CD includes versions of "Cowgirl In The Sand" and "Tonight's the Night" that, while enjoyable, will not make anyone forget the previously issued live versions of either song. Its nice to have performances of "Walk On" and "Words," two `70's classics that Young has not previously revived. Also included is a cover of Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower," on which the Pretender's Chrissie Hynde joins Young.
The problem with this release is that it doesn't really have anything to say. The musical arrangements and performances are solid but unexceptional; unlike Dylan or Springsteen, for example, Young doesn't seem interested in reinterpreting or reinventing his earlier triumphs to find new meaning. None of the other instrumentalists seem able to push or prod or wrestle with Young as the boys in Crazy Horse would. Complicating matters further is that neither Pegi Young or Astrid Young are accomplished singers, and their performances are somewhat less than professional.
Read more ›However, there are redeeming qualities. The version of "Cowgirl in the Sand" is good, but especially the bass (drum and guitar) sound terrible, as if they were recorded in cardboard box. Don't knock "Walk On" too quickly--it's meant to be a slightly happy tune, and I like this one. I am also very happy to now have a live version of "Peace of Mind"--it's a beautiful tune and it's well played. Crazy Horse couldn't have pulled this off: Keith and Oldham know where it's at. Neither old nor decrepit, the guys backing Young up know that there is more to rock 'n' roll than loud and fast.
Both the good and the bad on this album are evident on "All Along the Watchtower." Young pays his dues to Hendrix and Dylan on this one (he's played this before--I have a CD single at home somewhere with this song live) and his guitarplaying is brilliant. That is, I think it is, because it's hard to make out in the mix. I hope those who saw the tour heard it better; it must have been awesome.
In all, I have very mixed feelings about this album. It's by the man, so I got to buy it, and I must respect what he was trying to do, but I can't say I understand how this album came to sound the way it does. Perhaps Young can enlighten us.
This live CD his best concert version yet. He was so "on" that evening, and his band was so tight, I can honestly say there are very few live albums to equal this. Little Feet comes close, but for sheer rock power, this man has no equal. This CD conjures up visions of Neil circa 1972, Winterland, fuzz-box, Bo-Diddely, looking, square guitar blaring at warp speed, dancers in the audience, including yours truly, gyrating frenziedly on the floorbaords. Light show, Stobes, Glitter Ball...oh those were the days!!

One of my favorite things to do at NAMM is randomly wander the aisles to look at all the new wares for the coming year. In doing so, I've had the privilege of seeing what amounts to a giant art expo, filled with tons of interesting, innovative, and downright cool pieces that blur the line between form and function. And while there are usually some jaw-dropping pieces tailored towards bassists, the majority of new products are geared for guitarists. Philosophy Amplification's Kit Rairigh and Elliot Polokoff—frustrated with the seemingly endless offerings of cheap and outsourced amplification for bassists—set out to create an amp that would not only compete on a boutique level in terms of tone, but also have a stunningly unique look, and a reasonable price tag. Their flagship bass amp was released soon thereafter, with a cultured look and killer tone to match.
The Look and Feel of Tone Philosophy designed their amp with the intent of making a bold, visual statement for bassists. The outer shell is constructed from gorgeous hardwood and is finished with a subdued, dark stain that showcases the wood's grain. Both the top and front of the housing sport hourglass-shaped vents, and the front-panel vent features a strip of bright LEDs that illuminate when the amp is powered on. Forgoing traditional control labeling in favor of vintage-Orange-inspired pictographs for the knobs, the company's name is the only lettering that's prominently visible. The visual vibe of the amp just screams cosmopolitan, and it would look just as appropriate serving as the centerpiece of a Manhattan high-rise apartment as it does sitting atop your favorite 4x10. But as refined and clean as it looks, the amount of firepower hidden inside this handbuilt amp is not geared for the stuffy wine and cheese crowd.
to hear audio clips of the amp at premierguitar.com/jun2012 CLICKHere…
The Philosophy's class-AB power amp is fueled by a quartet of JJ KT88 power tubes, dishing out a total of 200 watts. Before the amp has a chance to feed the speaker cab with its pummeling signal, the input signal is first processed by a trio of JJ 12AX7 preamp tubes, along with a set of controls for gain, bass, middle sweep, treble, and master volume. And while the amp has only one channel, Philosophy designed the circuit with highly overdriven capabilities on tap, making it ideal for generating some serious grind and saturation with considerable heft and power.
Features on the amp are as sparse as the visual look of the Philosophy. There is no effects loop or direct out on the back panel—only the amp's power and standby

A new study from Memorial Sloan-Kettering has shown that the presence or absence of certain kinds of immune cells in a lung tumor and in the tissue surrounding such a tumor might influence the likelihood that the tumor will recur after it is surgically removed.
The findings, published online December 26 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology, suggest how new tests could be developed to predict which patients are at a higher risk of recurrence after surgical removal of their lung tumor. In addition, the study confirms the important role the immune system plays in helping the body to fight cancer.
The researchers looked at eight types of immune cells in tissue samples from 956 patients with stage I lung adenocarcinoma, one of the most common types of lung cancer, then studied patients to see how they fared after surgery. They found that the presence of certain immune cells and factors secreted by these immune cells indicated the patient was more likely to be cured, while the presence of other factors indicated the patient was more likely to have the cancer return.
"This research shows that with a certain type of immune response — a 'good' response — there is a benefit to patients, and it prevents the cancer from coming back," says Prasad S. Adusumilli, a Memorial Sloan-Kettering scientist and thoracic surgeon who led the study. "If someone has a different type of immune response, that patient may be at much higher risk of having a recurrence."
Currently, patients with stage I and stage II lung cancer do not receive any additional treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation therapy, after surgery.
"These treatments have side effects, and they have not shown a benefit to patients with early-stage disease," Dr. Adusumilli explains. "However, there is enthusiasm for developing immune therapies for these patients, which would be targeted and may improve the chance of cure."
These immune therapies may include antibodies that improve the immune response or treatments in which patients' own immune cells are engineered to be more effective at fighting cancer.
"In our study, we've identified factors that may be useful in predicting which patients might benefit from these new kinds of immune treatments," he adds.
At present, only 20 to 25 percent of lung adenocarcinomas are detected at stage I. However, Dr. Adusumilli says that the proportion of cancers caught at an early stage is likely to increase due to new guidelines on screening smokers for lung cancer. With this anticipated increase in early detection, Nabil P. Rizk, a thoracic surgeon who is coordinating Memorial Sloan-Kettering's lung cancer screening program, has emphasized the need for prediction biomarkers.
Dr. Adusumilli and his team, working in Memorial Sloan-Kettering's Center for Cell Engineering (CCE), are currently developing clinical trials to test cell-based immune therapies in lung cancer patients. Michel Sadelain, Director of the CCE and a coauthor of the JCO study, is helping to initiate one such study that makes use of a technique called adoptive cell transfer and that will be part of a new Stand Up to Cancer (SU2C) Immunology Dream Team project, funded by SU2C and the Cancer Research Institute.
Funding for this research came from National Cancer Institute grant 1R21CA164568-01A1, Department of Defense grant PR101053, and a National Lung Cancer Partnership/LUNGevity Foundation Research Grant.

My pleasure.
This might be the most over -- financial fiasco in history.
So says our next guest who's been enlisted the help of the senate committee drum up questions for by Ben Bernanke and Tim Geithner antisense Saunders.
It's a professor.
James Madison University is so good to see you.
What is the central question then and -- -- that you would ask both Bernanke and Geithner does this even matter right.
While the first question they have to ask chairman Bernanke and Treasury Secretary Geithner is.
What did you know about us and as you've heard from the previous guests including -- Duffy.
That they're there they know that they knew some thing and the question what do they tell them to the instruct the banks saying hey.
Effect and you look at chart of Fed Funds rate vs Libor you can see that up -- told the financial crisis -- the Lehman Brothers collapse.
That they track almost perfectly.
So the Fed Funds rate was actually a great way to model Libor.
But after that that the whole Libor market as a pre discuss point out -- kind of evaporated.
So what rates where they actually putting in there that made any sense.
Question and again since mortgages for example arms -- all -- many were tied to Libor I just can't say.
Nothing's trading so -- economic generate thing today -- can't do that.
But what what what -- they instructed to do.
Did to the Fed or did the Bank of England over and sterling -- that they instruct the banks to take certain behaviors.
-- and the answers woman we've get done with a does that -- -- -- kinda -- Darryl I think there's much they can do about.
Would that that's the reason it didn't go back to the Federal Reserve and the need the reason that you would suggest that this is over hype is because the Fed ultimately.
Is the greatest manipulator.
Is -- not of Libor rates that it mean there's some outrageous rate manipulation that goes on any way that everybody got their -- and I'm not about this one.
One incidence.
Absolutely effect I challenge anyone to come up -- -- short term.
-- type rate that cannot be manipulated by central banks who whatever they come up with will be manipulated.
So the only question is do we what the Fed -- -- are we upset that.
Barkley is due to we have set that if an American bank does this and that they do it under the authority -- under the auspices of the Fed.
That's what they have to ask chairman Bernanke and S.
Treasury Secretary Geithner my point is is that it's not gonna matter whose central banks are gonna manipulate the heck out of these rates.
Anthony it was great to see you Anthony Sanders and by the -- -- yes -- Big -- traded from James Madison and George Mason first -- got to draft.
And it's -- to -- at stake areas out -- well.

Wikipedia: Is A Paid Alternative Really Better?
Posted 06 March 2007 - 08:30 PM
Does anyone actually do that, pay for an online encyclopedia?
A friend once said "we forget where we came from" , and I think people forget what the pre-wikipedia internet was like for these sorts of things, as people struggled to find ANY source of information, and rather than having one slightly dodgy source that you could learn to correct the bias of, we had brazillians of them, and you didn;t know from Adam which was good and which was absolute lies!
Seems to me that wikipedia, as bad as it can be (and it can be bad) is better than the alternative: absolutely ^%$$ all, or the need to relearn trillions of site's unique issues. At least this way i only got to know one's problems.
IMHO, a paid solution no one ever uses versus a source with some nice articles and AWESOME links, to me, is about as useful as an online encyclopedia needs to be.
What are other people's thoughts?
Posted 06 March 2007 - 09:23 PM
IMHO Widipedia is one of those handful of sites that demonstrate very well what the idea of the Web was all about. Truly opensource and done by those who watch over it for the love of creating a wonderful resource. I personally hope we never lose such places.
By the same token, I fully understand why there are issues when something gets that large and has that many contributors. One of the master strokes of the majorest (gotta make up a new word) opensource progject --namely Linux-- was that Linus Torvalds manage to keep some control over the final product even though thousands of people were contributing. Of course it's much easier to maintain some control and focus when you're releasing software. It's much more difficult for informational resources.
I will say though that much of the grousing lately seems to be traceable back to Wikipedia co-founder Jimmy Wales. I actually feel for the guy because truth be told he should be a multi-millionaire at least because of the Wiki. And he's not. I guess he's earned the right to raise the spector of problems and be a bit bitter. After all it is his baby. I just hope the Wiki doesn't go away when he starts the Paid version.
Posted 06 March 2007 - 11:07 PM
The paid competitors have existed for a long time. Wikipedia can be freely copied, so even if Jimbo tried to close it up, anybody could take a recent copy and start their own free replacement.
Posted 06 March 2007 - 11:25 PM
I just don;t see how a paid version,. no matter how much better, is worth it. An encyclopedia is a bunch of information that skims the surface in such a way that it is ONLY useful for third grade assignments. How much do we need such a service, and is it worth paying for?
Seems to me the wikipedia model is perfect (except for no revenue).
Edited by projectphp, 07 March 2007 - 01:09 AM.
Posted 07 March 2007 - 08:05 AM
I'm really not convinced that a paid version would be any more reliable or up to date!
Posted 07 March 2007 - 09:55 AM
Who said that? I've always thought of Matt Cutts as Google's Michael Motherwell...
Posted 07 March 2007 - 10:03 AM
I believe in freedom of information - what the web was originally designed for. Information should be freely accessible. Maybe a paid for version could exist in parellel (surely they do already) but not to replace free information.
Surely if someone wanted accurate information they would consult multiple sources not just one? And then who is to say what is right, certain things are always from one persons perspective or can be influenced by politics or whatever.
Personally I dont actually look things up specificially in Wikipedia, I search on Google and usually Wikipedia is among the pages that come up, and I usually read a few different sites.
Posted 07 March 2007 - 06:30 PM
Me too
The context was all the edits you made to the SEO section (I think it was an old taped version of the show), and comments that the Matt Cutts article was poorly formatted (which was true).
I really just don't get what is wrong with wikipedia. Third graders everywhere geteasy assignment answers, and the rest of us get "back of a cigarette packet" overviews of issues. Perfect, and not somethign i would pay $5 for.

By Mayo Clinic staffThe signs and symptoms of a concussion can be subtle and may not be immediately apparent. Symptoms can last for days, weeks or even longer.
The most common symptoms after a concussive traumatic brain injury are headache, amnesia and confusion. The amnesia, which may or may not be preceded by a loss of consciousness, almost always involves the loss of memory of the impact that caused the concussion.
Signs and symptoms of a concussion may include:
- Headache or a feeling of pressure in the head
- Temporary loss of consciousness
- Confusion or feeling as if in a fog
- Amnesia surrounding the traumatic event
- Dizziness or "seeing stars"
- Ringing in the ears
- Nausea or vomiting
- Slurred speech
- Fatigue
Some symptoms of concussions may be immediate or delayed in onset by hours or days after injury:
- Concentration and memory complaints
- Irritability and other personality changes
- Sensitivity to light and noise
- Sleep disturbances
- Psychological adjustment problems and depression
- Disorders of taste and smell
Symptoms in children
Head trauma is very common in young children. But concussions can be difficult to recognize in infants and toddlers because they can't readily communicate how they feel. Nonverbal clues of a concussion may include:
- Listlessness, tiring easily
- Irritability, crankiness
- Change in eating or sleeping patterns
- Lack of interest in favorite toys
- Loss of balance, unsteady walking
When to see a doctor
See a doctor within one to two days if:
- You or your child experiences a head injury, even if emergency care isn't required
The American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that you call your child's doctor for advice if your child receives anything more than a light bump on the head. If your child remains alert, moves normally and responds to you, the injury is probably mild and usually doesn't need further testing. In this case, if your child wants to nap, it's OK to let them sleep. If worrisome signs develop later, seek emergency care.
Seek emergency care for a child who experiences a head injury and:
- Vomiting
- A headache that gets worse over time
- Changes in his or her behavior, including irritability or fussiness
- Changes in physical coordination, including stumbling or clumsiness
- Confusion or disorientation
- Slurred speech or other changes in speech
- Vision or eye disturbances, including pupils that are bigger than normal (dilated pupils) or pupils of unequal sizes
- Changes in breathing pattern
- Lasting or recurrent dizziness
- Blood or fluid discharge from the nose or ears
- Large head bumps or bruises on areas other than the forehead, especially in infants under 12 months of age
Seek emergency care for anyone who experiences a head injury and:
- A loss of consciousness lasting more than a minute
- Repeated vomiting
- Seizures
- Obvious difficulty with mental function or physical coordination
- Symptoms that worsen over time
No one should return to play or vigorous activity while signs or symptoms of a concussion are present. Experts recommend that an athlete with a suspected concussion not return to play until he or she has been medically evaluated. Experts also recommend that child and adolescent athletes with a concussion not return to play on the same day as the injury.

Leeson on Pirates and the Invisible Hook
Peter Leeson of George Mason University and author of The Invisible Hook talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about the economics of 18th century pirates and what we can learn from their behavior.

Brady on Health Care Reform, Public Opinion, and Party Politics
David Brady of Stanford University talks with EconTalk host Russ Roberts about American public opinion on changing the health care system. Brady discusses the impact of taxation on public opinion toward health care reform--if the poll includes a measure of the likely increase in taxes necessary to pay for expanding coverage, support for expanding coverage drops dramatically compared to generic polls that ignore costs. He also discusses the role of the party system and partisanship for the health

CMS.603 American Soap Operas (MIT)
The television landscape has changed drastically in the past few years; nowhere is this more prevalent than in the American daytime serial drama, one of the oldest forms of television content. This class examines the history of these "soap operas" and their audiences by focusing on the production, consumption, and media texts of soaps. The class will include discussions of what makes soap operas a unique form, the history of the genre, current experimentation with transmedia storytelling, the on
21L.702 Studies in Fiction: Rethinking the American Masterpiece (MIT)
What has been said of Moby-Dick—that it's the greatest novel no one ever reads—could just as well be said of any number of American "classics" like The Scarlet Letter, Uncle Tom's Cabin, or The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. This course reconsiders a small number of nineteenth-century American novels by presenting each in a surprising context.
21L.421 Comedy (MIT)

Being a 'good BRIC': how the rising BRIC economies can be a win-win for the global economy - Summer
As the 'are we'/'aren't we' debate continues around Britain's early or late emergence from the global recession it is clear that the so called 'BRIC' economies of Brazil, Russia, India and China are proving somewhat more resilient to the global economic downturn suffered by the Western economies. So how much can we learn from them about developing these new growing middle class markets abroad and how much do they still need our skill set in terms of their recent mergers and acquisitions?

Australia's bid for election to the UN Security Council - What will it mean for Australia?
Australia was last elected to the Security Council in 1984 and it is standing for election again in 2012. Over the past 25 years the world environment and the Security Council have changed dramatically. In 1984 the Council suffered from cold war paralysis, but it is now a key instrument of 21st century security policy. Competition for election is intense.

Once there was a beautiful woman who loved to work in her vegetable garden, but no matter what she did, she couldn't get her tomatoes to ripen. Admiring her neighbor's garden, which had beautiful bright red tomatoes, she went one day and inquired of him his secret.
"It's really quite simple," the old man explained. "Twice each day, in the morning and in the evening, I expose myself in front of the tomatoes and they turn red with embarrassment."
Desperate for the perfect garden, she tried his advice and proceeded to expose herself to her plants twice daily. Two weeks passed and her neighbor stopped by to check her progress. "So," he asked, "Any luck with your tomatoes?"
"No," she replied excitedly..."But you should see the size of my cucumbers!"

For NaNo-ers working like dervishes through 50,000 words, for those (like me) trail-blazing through revisions -- or anyone straining to complete unruly projects that seem to be erasing whole chunks of time and personality to boot -- I offer an early holiday gift: this guided, meditative centering exercise.
It's from The Silva Method (beware, that's some surreous long-form, hard-sale copy on that there page) -- and no, I didn't buy their big ol 10-CD, $200 program; I'm cheap and this download's free -- and it's the craziest, trippiest, most mind-bending way to relax and remember who you are and what you're working for.
This along with regular mindfulness meditation has completely reversed how I approach myself, writing and work. Which is a helluva big deal. Almost all of 2011 was an ugly slog for me, a time when I was straining so fiercely against the steel cables of bipolar and ADD that they constricted until I couldn't think, see or write over the noise in my head. I was constantly racing to catch up, clenched so tight that it's a wonder I functioned at all (I didn't).
Now, I find myself relaxed, calm and with this gorgeous mental cleanliness that, instead of knotting up and feverishly working, actually seems to make me step back from work -- even on deadline -- and relax. Then I go back and finish in a better, more alert state of mind. It actually seems to build hours into my day. How about them apples, y'all?
Enjoy :)

WW18: Canada, USA, Finland, and Czech Republic go for medals
STOCKHOLM Saana Valkama's OT goal lifted Finland into the final four, with Canada, the US, and the Czech Republic that beat Germany in the other quarterfinal, 3-1. Switzerland beat Japan 4-0 in the first relegation round game and is close to earning a spot in next year's top division tournament.Semi-finalsCanada vs. FinlandUSA vs. Czech RepublicRelegation Round (best of three, Switzerland leads 1-0)Switzerland vs JapanSchedule, scores and statisticsPhoto gallerySweden - Finland, 2-3 OTIn a true tradition of the Sweden-Finland rivalry, it took the teams more than 60 minutes to find a winner, but in the end, it was Finlands Saana Valkama, who beat Sofia Carlström 1:46 into the overtime and send Finland to a semi-final against Canada.It was a good game, and I think we deserved to win, said Valkama.Finland controlled the game early on, thanks to Swedens three minor penalties in a span of just five minutes and two seconds. Carlström in Swedens goal turned away all ten shots in the period, and kept Sweden in the game.The Finns got a great start for the second period, when Noora Tulus followed her linemates rush, and picked up a loose puck, then fired a slap shot that beat Carlström high in her stick side, just 50 seconds into the period.Then it was Finlands turn to run into penalty trouble, and while they killed off the first penalty, Jenni Oinonen got to witness Swedens equalizer from the penalty box. Lena Backlins slapshot from the blueline beat Isabella Portnoj in Finlands goal at 8:00.With five and a half minutes to go, Finland got a two-man advantage, and Venla Kotkaslahti deflected Jenni Oinonens slapshot past Carlström to give Finland the lead again at 15:55.In the third period, Sweden outshot Finland 11-8, and the pressure yielded results at 7:54 when Linnea Hedins blueline to blueline pass sent Michelle Lowenhielm on a breakaway. She waited until Portnoj committed herself to making a save to her right, then flipped the puck into an empty net on Portnojs left.Elin Johanssons penalty just two seconds before the end of the regulation time proved to be costly, as Finland got to start the overtime with a 4-on-3 powerplay. They kept the puck in the Swedish zone, and the Saana Valkama got her chance. She grabbed a loose puck, turned around and took a wrist shot that went in through Carlströms five-hole.I just tried to get the puck to the net, and it went in, Valkama said.Sweden will play Germany in the game for fifth place on Friday, Finland advances to the semi-final.Well try to challenge everybody, we have nothing to lose here, said Valkama.Germany - Czech Republic, 1-3The Czech Republic had clinched their place in the quarterfinals just 23 hours prior to the game, while Germany had rested starting goalie Nadja Kruber in their game against Canada. While Kruber played another good game, nothing could stop the Czechs tonight. Not after a pre-game pep talk delivered by a Czech hockey legend, forward Vladimir Zabrodsky, a two-time world champion himself.We played with a big heart. We were pretty tired, after the game and having played with practically just two lines, so we left everything on the ice, said Czech captain Jana Fialova.The Czechs picked up from where they left in their game against Japan, but fortunately for Germany, Kruber was at least as good as in her first two starts in the tournament.The Czechs outshot Germany - in part, thanks to three power play opportunities - in the first two periods, 27-13 in total. Especially in the first period, Kruber made several high-quality saves that kept Germany in the game.Kruber got beat 10:42 into the second period when Katerina Solnickova beat her at close range to give the Czechs the lead in the game. The goal was Solnickovas third in the tournament.The Germans were determined to get back into the game in the third period, but Klara Chmelova delivered a cold shower with her goal at 0:51, off Solnickovas assist, giving the Czechs - whose goal getting into the tournament had been to avoid relegation - a 2-0 lead.Germany worked their way back into the game with Kerstin Spielbergers goal at 50:22, but Aneta Tejlarova, who turned 15 yesterday, scored her first goal of the tournament off a nice feed by Katerina Kaplanova, and sealed the final score. Now our goal is to win a bronze medal, said Fialova, smiling. Germany will play in the game for fifth place on Friday. Switzerland gets breathing room: Japan - Switzerland, 0-4The teams playing to stay in the top division were close, very close, but in the end Switzerland left the rink as their winner, beating Japan 4-0, mostly thanks to their power play.Lara Stalder and Sabrina Zollinger scored one and assisted one each, and Tamara Klossner turned away all 35 shots she faced."It was a tough game. There were periods when I didn't face many shots, but I managed to stay focused," said Klossner.After a goalless first period, in which Japan had a bit of an edge, thanks to three power-play opportunities, Switzerland fought their way back into the game in the second. Japan, that had played very disciplined up to the last minutes of the second period, found themselves in a two-man disadvantage with 2:25 remaining in the period.Just 6 seconds into the 5-on-3 power play, Selina Wuttkes deflected on Lara Stalders cannon of a shot from the blueline past Japans Shizuka Takahashi, beating her high on the glove side. The Japanese penalty killers spent a good minute in front of their net, getting ready to kill of the second penalty, but even that didn't help them as Switzerland struck again in the following shift.Team captain Sarah Forsters shot missed the net, but the puck bounced straight to Stephanie Lehner waiting on the other side of the net and she had an easy task to tap it in.Japan was poised to get back into the game in the third period, and managed to push Switzerland to their heels. However, halfway through the period, Takahashi was beat for the third time. Sabrina Zollinger took a shot from the top of the circles, but her shot hit a Japanese defensemans back and was deflected in, off the post of the Japanese goal. Forster collected her second point of the game on the goal. Zollinger and Lara Stalder picked up their second points of the game when Stalder made it 4-0 on powerplay with six and a half minutes remaining in the period, assisted by Zollinger and Phoebe Stanz. "I started to think about the shutout a little with a few minutes remaining in the game," said Klossner, "but that wasn't what was important today."The second relegation round game will be played on Friday, and a possible third on Saturday.

Thank you cking for this fantastic work! I'm using it with 4.1.1a and it seems to be working great so far.
I had to fiddle around for a while to understand how to make it work in the controller of a MVC app however, so I thought I might share what I came up with. In particular, I wanted the handler to a "group icon click" (i.e. the "groupaction" event) to be in the controller, and not the view.
First, it seems that in the view, the "callback" argument of the "groupActions" items MUST be defined to something: I set it to "Ext.emptyFn":
PHP Code:{
xtype: 'rowactions',
// ...
groupActions: {
// ...
callback: Ext.emptyFn
PHP Code:this.control({
'<some_identifier> rowactions':
groupaction: function(grid, records, action, groupValue) {
// your handler code here..

Thanks dcoran604 for this fix! I just lost an hour trying to debug that RowActions plugin bug with 4.1.1a.
@cking If your plugin was in a Github repo, it would be easier to track version-related and other issues like this.
14 Nov 2012 12:55 PM #13
Great work on this plugin, however, I am having trouble when using grid.reconfigure() The icon actions disappear when you apply the reconfigure
my code goes like this:
this.columns = [{xtype: 'rowactions'... etc.},{othercols...}];
// later a button will fire the reconfigure
var newCols = [... my new reconfig...];
var newFields = [...my new fields ...];
newCols = Ext.Array.merge(this.columns,newCols);
Any ideas of what might be wrong?
FYI: I am also using grouped columns and grid locking.

There exists this magical place in the City of Chicago that is an old authority on all tasty things vegan and vegetarian. A land of mouth watering vegan shakes, buffalo "wings," seitan steaks, and the best vegan rueben I've ever had the pleasure of eating. This place is called The Chicago Diner. You might have heard of it. Maybe not. Either way, it's good and if you're ever in the windy city you should check it out.
There's this burger on the menu that is my younger sister Sindha's favorite burger called the Buddha's Karma burger. Last time I was at The Chicago Diner I wanted to order the Karma burger to rub it in my poor studying-abroad-in-Paris sister's face but to my horror, they had taken it off the menu! What to do?! Well I ordered a vegan Dagwood sandwich instead and it was pretty darn good so that was alright.
I probably could have lived without the Karma Burger in my life. Yes it would have been a sadder existence, but it wasn't necessarily my go-to menu item (mainly because I make a point of ordering different things every time as much as possible!). Sindha on the other hand, could not have carried on life as usual without this burger making a regular appearance in her life. So I did what any perfect sister would do, and I tried to bring the burger home!
I knew it was a sweet potato curry burger with a tofu and brown rice base which I was pretty sure I could make a decent ode to. One of the key things about this burger that made it such a great item to order was the "karmic realignment sauce" aka a pineapple mango coconut sauce. It was the perfect pairing. Do I need to explain why? Maybe. But I shouldn't have to. It just made for the ideal balance of spices and flavors, sweet, tangy, nutty. You know. So, I didn't make it a sauce to pair with but instead a roasted pineapple and mango salsa. It's also pretty darn good. I suppose if you wanted it to be a sauce you could just take an immersion blender or food processor and puree it at the end. That'd work.
So Sindha, this one's for you girl.

The rest of the Portal 2 soundtrack would probably have to be picked up by a RBN authoring group, but I would bet good money that Harmonix is probably already working on or planning to officially release "Want you Gone". They did make "Still Alive" after all.
I didn't want to make a new thread and this seems to fit here so:
Has anyone tried to contact PopCap about getting the song at the end of Plants vs Zombies? It would have great harmonies lol.
Tubbs has a new home
Contacting whoever has the rights shouldn't be too hard, as the OST was released on Bandcamp. You'd just have to hit that "For all inquiries" button, fill out the form, and ask about who you'd have to contact. Then it should be easy from there (to contact them, that is, not necessarily to get an agreement).
I went to Harmonix and ordered a pepperoni pizza. Instead, they gave me a cheese pizza and told me that I could buy one pepperoni slice every week.

…because after today Cemetery Street is going on something of a hiatus.
However, before you hate me too much, keep in mind that this is more like a season finale. I do know what happens in the next strip, it will happen at some point, but I have some other projects that I need to focus on where other people depend on me or they don't get paid, plus there are a couple of things happening in my private life that will also require a little time.
But my intent is that Cemetery Street WILL return.
And in the mean time you can keep up with what I'm doing via my blog site, www.dalemettam.com or feel free to pop over to my Facebook page and friend me there…. y'know…. assuming you don't think Facebook is the antichrist made digital.
Thanks for reading, and look for more stuff from me soon.

For most users, Game Center is all about matching up with friends and competing for rankings and checking out leaderboards. It's not much fun though if you don't have anyone to play against. If you've found a particularly cool multiplayer game in the App Store that you think a friend would like, Game Center makes it easy to tell friends about it complete with an App Store link for them to check it out.
Here's how:
MapQuest Travel Blogs for iPhone and iPad is a great way to plot out your trip and then share it with your friends and family.
While Photo Stream and apps like Albumatic are easy ways to share photos with friends and family, they still leave something to be desired. If you go on a trip or vacation, you probably have things to say about your photos. Unless you leave a comment on your own photo, there's not much else you can do. That isn't the case with MapQuest Travel Blogs for iPhone and iPad.
With the release of the all new iMore 2.0 app, we've added a ton of new features to make using iMore on your iPhone and iPod touch even better. One of these new features is the ability to leave comments on articles directly within the app.
Here's how to start leaving comments in-app on your favorite iMore articles.
If you're a fan of Cut the Rope and you've already tackled all the current levels available in Experiments, you may want to check your app updates. A brand new box of levels has just been added and this time Om Nom will have some help acquiring his candy.
Skype has just received an update that adds a better designed calling experience along with some other enhancements and fixes. If you frequently use Skype for messaging, the update also brings with it quicker ways to clear out messaging histories.
Albumatic for iPhone is somewhat similar to photo sharing services like Instagram but focuses more on creating albums and sharing them with the people you already know, not just anyone. It's somewhat simliar to Apple's own Photo Stream service but allows your friends to add to your albums, not just view them. Albumatic may be a great alternative for those who want to collaborate on albums instead of just sharing and viewing.
There are lots of conversion apps for iPhone in the App Store that allow you to convert measurements such as currency, weight, distance, and more. The problem is that you couldn't always use a single app in order to convert what you need, when you need to. Amount for iPhone supports all kinds of conversions in one single app not only easily, but quite beautifully.
Your iPhone is a great place to store receipts and there are lots of apps in the App Store that offer this feature. Whether you need to keep track of business expenses to turn in to your employer, want to keep track of receipts as a self employed individual, or just want to know where your money is going, OneReceipt is a great option.
Not only can OneReceipt import receipts in many different ways, but let you categorize them in ways that makes it easiest for you to manage them.
Your iPhone and iPad are useful for all kinds of tasks and filing your tax returns is no exception. If you're a U.S. resident, you've got until April to get your tax returns filed so a lot of users are thinking about how and when they should file. If you've got a simple return that just involves some W-2's and a few other random income items, there are a few apps out there that can help you get them filed from start to finish.

I entered the classroom finding Miss Jeanette Karam standing up. The dietitian started explaining to us about our health and the type of food that we need to eat. We were given a food pyramid that had the different categories: grains, fruits, vegetables, oils, and milk. I found out that too much of one category isn't really good. I discovered that sugar might block our arteries. Tea isn't good for us to drink every day because of all the caffeine it has. Steamed vegetables are better than boiled vegetables because the vitamins and fiber get lost in the water. Fiber contains antioxidants which burn the fat in the arteries. It's healthier to eat oranges than drink orange juice because very little vitamins are left. Even if we squeeze the juice it's still not as healthy as the fruit itself
A few hours later, a cardiologist called Dr. Antoine Abchee came to class and explained to us ways we could keep our circulatory system healthy. I found out a bit of alcohol is healthy for adults, especially red wine, but even though, exercise is much healthier. Addictions could really effect a person, for example, smoking.

Adrian Purtell was both delighted and relieved with his comeback as he helped Bradford Bulls retain third place in Super League with a 34-12 win over Hull KR at Odsal.
The 28-year-old Australian centre had not played since suffering a heart attack in the aftermath of the Magic Weekend defeat by Leeds Rhinos last May but made his return four days after being given the all-clear by specialists.
Purtell said he was overwhelmed by the reception he received from both sets of fans when he entered the field on 24 minutes and he went on to play the rest of the match as the injury-hit Bulls cruised to victory.
"It was awesome," he said. "It's been a long 10 months and I'm just over the moon that the day has finally come and that I got through the game and, even more importantly, the team got a win.
"I think it's more relief to have played. I'm very happy to get that amount of minutes in my first game.
"It worked out well. The boys started really well which probably made it a bit easier for (coach) Franny (Cummins) to make that decision. Had it been a tighter game, I'm not too sure what would have happened."

Updated Feb, 15 to correctly reflect the name of Peter Krutiak, who was incorrectly identified in a previous version. Wednesday February 13, 2013
CHESHIRE -- Residents voted 40 to 12 in favor of allotting $47,870 from free cash to tear down the Cheshire Inn at Tuesday's special town meeting.
The demolition, still a week or more down the road, will leave roughly an acre of cleared property in the center of town, which, according to Selectmen Paul Astorino, has an assessed value of $46,000.
"Who knows what could go there?" Astorino said before the vote. "It could be used for farmers markets and other community activities."
The town owns the property, having taken it by tax title from former owner Peter Krutiak in 2011. D. Condran Construction Inc., won the bid for the building's demolition.
Resident James Tworig argued that he instead be allowed to purchase the building from the town for $17,500, commission salvagers to tear it down and then move lawn care and bait shop businesses he currently operates from his home to the Route 8 location, in two new buildings he'd have built on the site.
Tworig said the town would earn $3,000 per year in taxes from such an arrangement.
"In these economic times, I would think any money generated by taxes would be welcomed," he said.
Astorino proceeded to make the town's case.
"I think the town of Cheshire, for its future needs, should be able to say we own a municipal piece of land right in the center of town. ... Let's not make any quick decisions because we don't know what it could be worth to us. I think we should hold it."
Resident Francis Waterman agreed.
"It's always good planning to possess a piece of property in a central location," he said. "This should be money well spent in the eyes of the town because there will be a good future use for that property."
Tworig's involvement in a "perpetual tag sale" operated with the then-owner of the building at the site in 2007, ordered removed by the building inspector and town officials, was also brought to light.
Voters ultimately favored the town's proposal.
A third option was also put before officials before the meeting.
Resident Robert Goebel said he's found at least one salvage company who'd "most definitely buy [the Inn]."
"Times are tough," Goebel said in an interview, explaining how he'd recently begun researching salvage companies. "I'm seeing if we can get some money out of this thing [for the town]."
Before bidding out its demolition, the town advertised more than once seeking parties interested in buying the Inn, but nobody except Tworig responded.
Selectwoman Carol Francesconi said Goebel's findings sounded "too good to be true," and Town Administrator Mark Webber added that the contractor, Condran, has reported nothing worth salvaging left in the building -- copper piping, tin ceilings and other moldings of value having already been scavenged.
Nonetheless, officials charged Webber with contacting a few of the companies on Goebel's list.
"It's worth a call," Francesconi said. "Our vote doesn't oblige us to spend [the money allotted for demolition], it just enables us to do so."
Voters also approved a sum of $8,000 to be spent on a new furnace for the Senior Center at Tuesday's meeting.
The town has $487,811 in free cash.

Southern Cross Guest Ranch is a premier year-around guest ranch, horse farm, and bed & breakfast conveniently nestled in Central Georgia's Historic Heartland and within an hour drive from Atlanta. Home to well over 150 quality Paint and Quarter horses, the ranch is best known for its exceptional hands-on horseback riding program, unguided riding opportunities, and peaceful, comfortable setting. We welcome you to experience our delightful accommodations, exceptional cuisine, and southern hospitality. Southern Cross Ranch - a wonderful All-Inclusive vacation in a horse lover's paradise.
"One of America's Best Dude Ranches" - Travel + Leisure Magazine
If you haven't figured it out already, Southern Cross Ranch is, at its core, a family-owned and operated horse farm that values its animals. We have been raising quality Paint and Quarter horses for over 25 years. For more than 10 years, we have been welcoming guests to visit and share the indescribable joy of being around these magnificent creatures. Over two dozen foals are born on the ranch from March - June each year. Occasionally, guests may get a unique opportunity to see a mare giving birth. Everyone has virtually unlimited opportunities to touch, photograph, and interact with many of the foals and other horses. One of the most popular comments from guests is that our horses--especially the foals--are exceptionally gentle and docile, making for an unforgettable experience.
If you are a horse lover or are simply curious about horses, you've come to the right place. You'll be able to watch horses grazing from every porch, deck, dining room, and even from the pool area. Our philosophy is simple: it can't be a horse lover's paradise if it's not a horse's paradise first.
Our rooms are divided into 5 categories; 1-5 with 5 being the highest. Each room category is pleasantly appointed featuring a King-sized bed, A/C, TV, DVD, phone and private bath. Premium rooms offer whirlpools, fireplaces, and unmatched views. Rooms are available with a rustic, western theme or one of more traditional Southern décor. Some rooms may have a King and Queen or King and twin bed arrangement.
All guests are able to enjoy complimentary breakfast, unlimited soft drinks, tea, coffee, fresh lemonade, snacks, fruit and fresh baked desserts available 24 hours per day.
Our meals are served buffet style 3 times daily and feature a delicious mix of international cuisine as well as local favorites. Lunch and Supper are included for guests staying on the All-Inclusive (AI) and All-Inclusive Non-Riding Plan (AINR) and may be purchased separately by all others. Serving times are 8am, 1pm, and 6pm. Lunch and supper reservations are required for walk-ins or patrons staying on our B&B plan. Please contact us for reservations. All guests are able to enjoy complimentary breakfast, unlimited soft drinks, tea, coffee, fresh lemonade, snacks, fruit and fresh baked desserts available 24 hours per day.
Our newest amenity is an aqua massage bed. This is a very unique and highly specialized machine. A spray bar traveling shoulder to toe shoots heated, pulsating water from your centerline around to your sides. Rest assured - you remain clothed and dry for your privacy and comfort. Our aqua massages are a perfect way to ease those sore muscles from time spent in the saddle or the trip here. It is reported that 10-15 minutes on the aqua bed is therapeutically equivalent to a 60-minute personal massage. Aqua massages are not included in our packages, but are quite reasonable on an a la carte basis.
Other Amenities:
- Free wifi internet service
- Complimentary internet terminal
- Pool & hot tub
- Fire pit
- Game room

Horseback riding in Georgia - it is the featured activity at Southern Cross. If you're a beginner, don't worry - riding lessons are available and horses are personally assigned based on your riding experience and preferences. We'll supply all the equipment you'll need to ride, but you're welcome to bring your own if you choose. The climate in Georgia is great for horseback riding year around. The relaxed riding program even allows guests the unique opportunity to ride on their own if they desire, but small guided groups are always available. You'll be encouraged to groom and help tack the horses for a true hands-on and bonding experience. Whether you want to ride lazily across beautiful open pastures or trot through lush wooded trails, Southern Cross Ranch can accommodate your needs. If you're not into horseback riding and don't wish to start, there are non-riding plans with reduced rates to meet your needs.
Horseback riding is also available to non-guests at 9:15 a.m. and 2:15 p.m. daily on a space-available basis with reservations. If you are looking for horseback riding in Georgia, you've come to the right place.
After your daily horseback riding, you'll find many ways to relax and unwind at Southern Cross Ranch. You can enjoy a dip in the swimming pool or a soak in the hot tub. Seasonal flowers and beautiful landscaping adorn the ranch. Enjoy a good book in the shade next to the pool and water fountain. Guests also enjoy playing pool, darts, or foosball in the game room, riding mountain bikes, throwing horseshoes, shooting basketball, or catching a nap after a meal. The beauty of Southern Cross is that you can make every minute of your stay as active or restful as you may desire.
You can also use the ranch's convenient location to visit many of Georgia's local attractions including golf, shopping, fishing, skeet shooting, museums, and more.
