Some conservative groups have advised parents to keep their children home on the Day of Silence, April 25, 2008. Sponsored by the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network, the Day of Silence supports the safety of gay students on high school and college campuses. Conservative groups, such as Mission: America are concerned that the Day of Silence promotes homosexual behavior.
Are we missing a teachable moment?
What if Evangelical kids and college students led the way in making schools safe for all students? Where could we start? How about this Friday, April 25, 2008?
Without altering convictions about sexuality, I propose that Evangelicals should have something more to contribute toward the elimination of harassment and violence against gay people and people who are viewed as different. Indeed, we should be leading the way to make schools safe and build bridges to those who often equate "Christian" with condemnation.
To pursue bridges, Michael Frey, Western PA Director for College Ministries with Campus Crusade and I are promoting an alternative. We propose that Christian kids join gay students by pledging to abide by Christ's teaching in the Golden Rule. So far, as of this writing, students in 19 high schools and college plan to participate by agreeing with GLBT peers about respect of each other as Image bearers of God. Students can distribute pledges to honor the teaching of Christ to love as He loved and to treat others as we want to be treated.
Some bridges are being built. For instance, a Campus Crusade for Christ group at Slippery Rock recently entered a dialogue with a gay support group on campus and will help lead the call for respectful treatment of all students on campus. Randy Veccia, student leader, says the efforts of both groups will serve "to raise awareness that everyone deserves to be loved." Christian students in high schools in Greensboro, NC are going to reach out in ways not contemplated before.
Rev. Bob Stith, Gender Issues Strategist for the Southern Baptist convention had this to say about the Golden Rule Pledge Initiative:
Several years ago I stood outside a church which was being picketed by two very vocal and rabid "Christian" groups. Standing on the sidewalk were also some young lesbians doing their own picketing. The first group became more and more vocal in their opposition and insults. They began telling the young women how despicable they were and how God despised them.
At that point I walked over and told the girls, "I am a Christian and I do believe the Bible says homosexual behavior is sin. But I want you to know what these people are saying is wrong. I want to apologize to you and tell God does love you very much. Don't ever let anyone convince you He doesn't."
I have long thought Christians were missing a great opportunity by not being more vocal in helping to make our schools safe places for all kids. It doesn't require that we compromise our beliefs. Indeed it can give us a great opportunity that we might not otherwise have.
What a wonderful opportunity to express our convictions in a way that is positive, loving and redemptive. What a wonderful opportunity to train our children to care about all people, to model the example of Jesus and the woman at the well.
Who knows but what this could even be the beginning of a movement that will turn the tide of school shootings and violence in the hallways?
I hope you are correct, Bob.

Protect Against Malaria with Mosquito Nets
If you're off travelling around Asia, the Americas or sub-Saharan Africa then make sure you take a mosquito net with you. It is said that mosquitoes have killed more people than war. Their danger comes from their ability to transfer diseases and illnesses between humans. The elephantiasis-causing filariasis worm, yellow fever, various forms of encephalities and malaria can be transmitted by mosquitoes. Even today, between 1 and 3 million people die each year from malaria. Children are particularly vulnerable, due to their weaker immune systems.
It is important to make sure you have the right size mosquito net for your bed. A variety of styles are available for single and double beds. For bell, box and wedge nets which require hanging, the necessary hanging kit is supplied. All that is required is somewhere to attach them (e.g. a hook, beam or cord).
Obviously, if you're out camping then there aren't going to be that many beams from which to hang a net. Freestanding mosquito nets, as the name suggests, don't need to be hung.
Those who are moving around and/or don't necessarily know where they will be sleeping, compact mosquito nets are ideal. Whilst products large enough to cover even double beds are available, their design means they can be collapsed down small enough to be stored in a compression bag. They are small enough to be carried in backpacks or hand luggage; the perfect choice for those off travelling the globe or trekking around Africa.
To make doubly sure of being protected from malaria, you'll need a net that is impregnated with insecticide. Long Lasting Impregnation (LLI) kills mosquitoes as soon as they land on the net. The LLI lasts for 2 years, after which it can be reimpregnated with commercially available anti-mosquito treatments. You simply mix a solution of the anti-mosquito treatment to the right level of concentration and then draw the net through. Once dry, the net will be reimpregnated with LLI.
Mosquitoes bites are most likely to occure during the night, as this is when the insects are at their most active. As well as a net, it's important to keep yourself covered if you are out and about at night, during the early morning or evening. You may be up and moving, but that won't stop them trying to bite. Head nets are made of a fine mesh that offers you clear vision while also keeping the mosquitoes off your face.
Mosquito nets are also handy if you are in non-malarial zones. You may not be so at risk in the UK or France, but mosquitoes are still annoying. Non impregnated nets are available to keep the bugs off.
When you are travelling in sub-Saharan Africa, Asia or the Americas, it's important you take a mosquito net along with you. Whether you're staying in a double bed in a single hotel or hiking through the foothills, sleeping beneath the stars every night, there's a net suitable for your requirements. Malaria is a terrible problem, but there are easy steps you can take to avoid the worst of it.

Leafs Notebook – October 28
Oct 28, 2014
When Kyle Dubas was named GM of the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds, one of the first things he did was buy every member of the front office a copy of Jonah Keri's 'The Extra 2%.' For those of you who have not read the book, it archives the Tampa Bay Rays rise to prominence after a near decade of failure. Baseball Prospectus wrote a review summarizing the plot: The book's title refers to Rays owner Stuart Sternberg's philosophy that rather than attempt to lap the field—an unrealistic goal, given the team's financial realities and the challenge posed by sharing a division with baseball's...
Leafs Notebook – October 20

Since the 2014-2015 season began, I have been tracking my own internal metrics on Leafs games. I thought I'd take the time to explain what it is I'm keeping record of and what I am hoping to accomplish by doing so. If you do not care and just want to read notes, quotes and '5 Things I think I'd Do,' just scroll down and skip this part; otherwise, read on to learn more about what we are doing here at MLHS to take things (hopefully) to the next level.

Leafs Notebook – October 14
Oct 14, 2014
The Maple Leafs were faced with a unique opportunity to keep their top prospect in Toronto playing in the AHL, yet they elected to send him back to Sweden instead. Since 2005, 14 players drafted in the top 10 have played their draft season across the pond somewhere in Europe or Russia. There is no exact science to developing prospects and every individual person is, of course, unique. That said, odds are that some AHL time will occur, even if only for a handful of games before graduating to the NHL, provided Nylander becomes the player they hope he can be. Nylander...
Which Leaf Players Pull Their Weight Defensively?

In my last post, I looked at which Maple Leaf players are producing their fair share of the offense. In the comments to that post, a few readers wanted me to take a look at the players defensively to see who is performing up to par in that aspect of the game. Today, I'll look at the defensive side of the game in conjunction with their offensive performance. It may be worth while to go back and read it now if you haven't yet read the previous article, but I'll remind you of the process below: If you are not yet aware,...

Game Review: Game #10, Toronto Maple Leafs 4, Columbus Blue Jackets 1
The Toronto Maple Leafs were delivered a blow before the start of the game with the news that oft injured forward, Joffrey Lupul, was out with a broken right hand. This was a a decent win for Toronto against a team they should beat given the Blue Jackets had $30 million in players on the IR. They did not convincingly shut the game down and were dominated towards the end of the game, however, they did push shots to the outside and none were really of much threat. Tough luck for Jonathan Bernier on the power play goal. He looked good...
Game 10 Scoring Chances: Maple Leafs 4 vs. Blue Jackets 1
Oct 31, 2014
The Leafs earned a second straight win against a short-handed Blue Jackets team, getting some opportunistic third period goals to secure the victory. The first two periods were fairly close in chances until the Leafs scored their second goal, after which a couple of strong shifts saw them open a gap in chances. While Toronto managed only two shots on goal, both goals, in the third, they were even in chances, a sign of a very good defensive road effort. This was the lowest overall chance game the Leafs have played this year; they were content to defend their lead after...
GDT: Game #10, Toronto Maple Leafs at Columbus Blue Jackets (7 p.m., SNO)

The Blue Jackets are riddled with injuries, but the Maple Leafs would need short memories to take them lightly; they were thoroughly outcompeted by the Blue Jackets in their three meetings last season, losing by a combined score of 13-3. There are some rumblings of 7D, and of Carter Ashton's season debut, but that's been the case for almost every game this season. .

Thursday Mashup: Leafs face banged-up Blue Jackets tomorrow
Oct 30, 2014
The Maple Leafs were trounced by the Blue Jackets to the tune of three regulation victories by a combined score of 13-3 in three meetings last season. Helping the Leafs' cause tomorrow: Blue Jackets fans have resorted to pleading with the hockey Gods in an attempt to repent for whatever sin was committed that is costing them player after player to the injury list. Among those definitely out for tomorrow are starter Sergei Bobrovsky, James Wisniewski, Boone Jenner, Brandon Dubinsky, Nathan Horton, Matt Calvert and Nick Foligno; Artem Anisimov's condition is also unknown after taking a high hit from Eric Gryba the other night. Cam Atkinson also nearly lost his eye in...
Game Review: Game #9, Toronto Maple Leafs 4 vs. Buffalo Sabres 0
Buffalo is projecting as one of the worst teams in the modern era, but this win was convincing and much needed. If you want to put a positive spin on it, the Leafs have been generous with their shots allowed against even the worst of opponents in the past year; tying a franchise record for fewest shots against in a game – 10 – is a plus regardless of the opponent. The decision to go with Bernier over Reimer seemed somewhat curious given their recent form, but both goalies got the night off as it turns out. Bernier was credited with the...
Game 9 Scoring Chances: TOR 4 vs. BUF 0
Oct 28, 2014
After getting a lot of media heat from Saturday night's loss, the Leafs had the perfect response. They played what was, by the numbers, easily the most dominant single performance from a Leaf team in a long time, as they allowed Buffalo just ten shots on net, and had over 80% of the chances at even strength. Through most of two periods, they were playing with fire a little, not having turned the domination into any goals, but in the third Buffalo ended up paying for their struggles, and the Leafs were able to win easily. These numbers are nuts; to...

Happy New Year.
First I want to say that I appreciate everyone who has taken their time to read my missives that I leave on here. Every email I have received over the past year has meant a lot to me. Every comment both good and bad has sparked something in me in the hopes that I can be a better provider for hints and tips.
Hopefully in the next year we can all go on the same ride and enjoy the scenery. Progressing as we go to make a few bits of gold, enjoy time with friends and dominate like every Gold Goblin should.
If you are recovering from your hangover from earlier this morning (mine was brought on by pizza and Diet Pepsi) you might not be as anxious to finish up your daily chores today. That's understandable and many will look as today as just getting the bare necessities finished before they go to watch College Football mania.
Couple of things to remember for today. Tomorrow is the last day for Winter Veil so this will be your last chances to finish up the daily holiday boss kill and obtain the achievement. More importantly I want you to take a look at the Smokywood Pastures vendor in your local city.
This is the vendor that you picked up the holiday spices to finish up your cookies for Santa Clause. Holiday spices won't be in very big demand after the holiday is finished, but if you run your mouse over the patterns you see a one for Recipe: Egg Nog and Recipe: Gingerbread Cookie. But I'm sure in your mind your already saying 'I have that recipe Mo'. Look again gang, there is no BOP status listed on the recipe.
That's right boys and girls, BOE status on those recipes scream sales after the holiday. Where you might not be looking at thousands and thousands of gold. Picking up a couple of them and waiting a month then dropping them on the Auction House could score you a few hundred gold extra.
Did you see the Wrapping paper also? Purple Wrapping Paper, Blue Wrapping Paper and Green Wrapping paper are also BOE. Look at your calender and which even is next on the list? Love is in the Air event in February. Most players aren't familiar with where to get wrapping paper from (Do you know where to get it from without looking it up?). So taking advantage of this and barking in Trade chat for "gift wrapping service" might be a fun and interesting twist on sales.
Thinking outside the box becomes standard for a Gold Goblin. Taking a tried and true idea and turning it on it's head will help develop your own style. It will enlarge your prowess in gold making techniques and bring holiday cheer to many.
Good luck and Happy New Year
Want to get in contact with me? . Email me at Dragonbearjoe @ gmail. dOT com or find me on twitter at "@JMTCMommar" You can find me hanging out on the Shandris Server, chat me up and I will buy you a glass of juice.

As you return to the campus of Indiana University to celebrate the fiftieth year since your founding by Elder Watson Diggs and his colleagues, your theme – "Reclamation, Rededication, Reflection and Projection" – could well be adopted by all fruitful Americans at this moment in history.

Well the first half of the 2014 season has come to a close with little fanfare; at least for Rangers fans. I think we could all use four days "off", am I right?
The Rangers have lost 9 of their last 10 games and that's absolutely no fun. But, I figure, if the team won't be fun, we can make our own fun…dang it!
So here you have this…a quiz: What kind of Rangers fan are you?
Don't you just love all of the Buzzfeed quizzes on Facebook? Why not have one of our own? Ready?
Below are your questions. Count up you're A's, B's, Cs, and D's to find out just which kind of Rangers fan you are.
Yay! We're having fun again!
1. The Rangers are down 3-2 at home, going into the bottom of the 9th inning, you think to yourself:
|A. Dang, we have the bottom part of the order up. Hopefully we can etch out a run. Either way, at least Yu pitched a good game.
|B. We'll just have to walk it off! Let's go Adam Rosales…hit that home run!
|C. Buncha schmucks. They're gonna lose like they always do.
|D. I don't know. Did they win yesterday?
2. The Rangers acquire a big bat in…let's just say…Prince Fielder.
|A . You jump for joy that Jon Daniels is trying to bolster the weak offense. But realize that there are plenty other fixes to make for the team to be a contender.
|B. You're pretty sure that Prince will hit 64 home runs to right field. And maybe 10 more to left.
|C. This is the worst move EVER. Prince Fielder?! What's he ever done? What was JD thinking?
|D. Prince Fielder is the best! Well…unless The Ticket says otherwise.
3. Tom Grieve is talking about cookies again.
|A. Can we get back to the game?
|B. Cookie talk! Good ol' Mildred from Pampa, TX. TAG's the best.
|C. I hate cookies. This is why everyone is fat!
|D. I love cookies. But why is TAG talking about them now? I hate TAG. Stupid Rangers they suck tonight. OOH! A home run!
4. It's February and pitchers and catchers report in a few days.
|A. You're SO excited that baseball is back! You also wonder when the spring games will start to be televised.
|B. You can't WAIT to hear from the Mayor of Surprise, AZ on the telecast! In fact, you hope he gets two innings to speak this year!
|C. You're pretty sure the Rangers are gonna lose 100 games this year. There's basically no way around it. If not 100, at least 90.
|D. The Rangers sucked last year. That means they'll suck again this year. Who wants my "ducks on a pond" t-shirt? OOH! We got Prince Fielder?!
5. Derek Holland "trips over his dog".
|A. You think he's a huge goofball with lots of talent.
|B. Aww, he's a dog lover! I have a boxer too!
|C. You are pretty sure you know who "Dumber" is now.
|D. You're not sure what to think. It's the preseason. I'll decide when the team starts winning…or losing.
Okay, Rangers fans…tally 'em up!
Are you?
Mostly A's:
Rusty Greer – You're die-hard. Good team, bad team…doesn't matter. You'll dive into a wall and wreck your insides to show your support. You're there watching every game for a 10-game losing streak, the World Series, and everything in between. Bravo! (Also…you know who Rusty Greer is)
Mostly B's:
Nelly Cruz – You're a nice guy. But you're a little delusional. We know you love your team, but they just can't be good every year. It's not possible. You hear "20 games under .500" and you just think playoffs sound like a challenge. PLAYOFF BOUND! Unfortunately, much like Nelly himself, you'll be hit by an $8 million deal…er, reality check right in the face. Not to fear, we love your optimism. But sometimes, you gotta keep it real.
Mostly C's:
Alex Rodriguez – You're a Debbie Downer. Rangers lose the game? "Eh, I told you they suck". Rangers win the ALCS? "Eh, they'll lose it in the World Series". Remember the guys in Major League that sat in the outfield and called Rick Vaughan "Vile Thing"? Yeah, that's you. Except we all know why you're doing this. You don't want to get hurt. We understand. But have some faith. We'll be good again!
Mostly D's:
Vicente Padilla – You're a loose cannon! Up and down, up and down. We don't know what to expect from you! Rangers are winning and you're like "GO RANGERS!" Rangers are losing and you're jumping off the bandwagon faster than we can say claw and antlers. Pull yourself together! And take some cues from Rusty Greer up there.
See? We make our own fun.
Enjoy the Home Run Derby tonight!
95 down, 67 to go.
Your Texas Rangers are 38-57.

The epitome of cool, one who is dope sauce slides with ease through daily problems
That Jordan dunk was pure dope sauce
Beküldő: Dope Sauce 2004. március 22.
This is the only liquid substance you can pour onto yourself to make you "doper".
When you pour dope sauce on you it makes you dope. The first person to use dope sauce was Cee-Lo-Green. If Cee Lo didn't use dope sauce then he would just be some fat wierdo. Also Skrillex used dope sauce.

A smile is just a smile
But that isn't always so.
A smile on you means more
To me than anyone can know.
To love you is a feeling
Of complete abandoned joy.
A celebration of adoration
Between a girl and boy.
You know there never has
And never will be too,
A definition that describes
Happiness, like you and I do.

Editorial: Obama says he'll try again to close Gitmo
Although he took his time about it, President Barack Obama pledged at his news conference Tuesday to again take up the issue of closing the Guantanamo Bay prison.
Obama campaigned in 2007 and 2008 on a promise to close the controversial prison. But Congress, for reasons of demagoguery rather than any genuine concern for security, blocked each attempt to bring the inmates to the mainland for trial and incarcerate them in an unused Illinois prison.
The townspeople actually wanted the jobs and money the prison would bring, but anti-Obama members of Congress conjured up visions of murderous jihadis fleeing through the cornfields of the Midwest.
Nor would Congress let the administration try alleged 9/11 mastermind Khalid Sheikh Mohammed and four other accused plotters in the Manhattan criminal courts, even though those courts have extensive experience in terrorism trials and an almost unbroken string of convictions.
In over 10 years, the military tribunals in Guantanamo, seemingly in a constant state of revision, have produced only a handful of convictions and many of them have been reversed on appeal. Like the prison, the tribunals don't work well either.
Instead the prison has produced one international black eye after another for the U.S., the latest being 100 of the remaining 166 inmates, seeing no hope of trial or release, going on a hunger strike, with 21 approved to be fed the nutritional supplement Ensure through tubes inserted through their noses.
The president was exactly right when he said that "Guantanamo is not necessary to keep America safe. It is expensive. It is inefficient. It hurts us in terms of our international standing. It lessens cooperation with our allies on counterterrorism efforts. It is a recruitment tool for extremists. It needs to be closed."
Most important, the whole idea of Guantanamo — imprisonment in perpetuity without trial — is, as Obama put it, "contrary to who we are ... and it needs to stop."
Congress should get a grip on itself and join the president in closing the book on this embarrassing chapter in our history.

|July 13
In 1985, the Speaker of the House, Tip O'Neill (pictured) was sworn in as the forty-first President on this day.
Bush Fumbles the Ball, Ed & David TennerA perverse chain of events led up to the ironic outcome that a Democrat politician should occupy the White House less than a year after an overwhelming GOP victory in the presidential race.
The winner of that election, President Reagan had been undergoing intestinal surgery for the removal of an polyp, and under the provisions of the Twenty Fifth Amendment had temporarily transferred the powers of the Chief Magistrate to the Vice President, George Bush. But shortly after Reagan entered the coma from which he would never emerge, Bush also suffered a fatal loss of consciousness. Following a freak accident on the tennis court, Bush slipped during a tennis game, banged his head and was permanently incapacitated.
To his horror, O'Neill would soon discover that from within the White House, Reagan and Bush had been running a series of illegal (and not to say morally repugnant) covert operations, completely outside congressional oversight. Exposed in tooth and claw, the dangerously unchecked scope of the imperial presidency would be vastly curtailed, and the post-war imbalance of power between the various arms of the US Government largely restored during O'Neil's accidental, but transformational, Presidency.

P.S. This post is targeted towards the Talknopreneurs, people who apparently know the ins and outs of running a business despite not having done anything related to starting anything before.
P.P.S. To my friends who are business owners, and REAL entrepreneurs, and have given me advice, thank you :)
I released Instasyncer on the 1st of May, 12pm.
Ever since then, I've had a whole bunch of people telling me how I can monetize it, and how I can make this into a business. So this post is to end it once and for all.
Until I reach a stage when I'm losing money by running this service, I am not charging for it.
There, I said it.
I did this because I needed it, and I put a UI over it because I thought other people might benefit from this service, no matter how few people use it. End of story. There was never an intention to monetize, so please keep your brilliant plans to make money to yourself, and stop talking to me like you know everything there is to business when you yourself haven't even started one. The next person who has not started a business telling me how to make this into a business will automagically not be able to contact me anymore, just like how Instasyncer automagically syncs your Instagram photos to Dropbox. I'm serious. I have better stuff to do than listen to your plans on how I can make money, for example, coding more cool features for Instasyncer. If you really have an awesome way to make money, please go and make it. I'll be very happy for you. Really :)

A Pup Named Scooby Doo was a reinvention of the Scooby franchise in the late 80s, and featured Scooby, Shaggy, and the rest of the Mystery Inc. gang as kids. The Mystery Inc. gang proved to be meddling menaces to crooks, even at a young age, and you can join them on their first 13 episodes in this 2 disc set. Though these episodes were released in volumes a few years ago, Warner Bros has added some new bonus material, offering the older collectors a reason to buy the set. You can explore Coolsville, USA through an interactive map (featuring interviews with producer Tom Ruegger), and a pencil test Animatic of an alternate opening for the show.

Wow, March 15 is loaded with Warner releases! They have ER Season 7, The War at Home Season 1, A Pup Named Scooby-Doo Volume 6, Tom and Jerry Tales Volume 2, and Tex Avery's Droopy: The Complete Theatrical Collection, which aired as part of Tom and Jerry. That's five releases on one day!All right, time to get right to it: American Dad Volume 2 is my pick of the week for May 15. I'll admit that I'm not a big fan of this show, but the DVDs are pretty good. I prefer Family Guy over American Dad; I just feel that AD is too similar to FG, and I prefer Peter over Stan. The set includes commentary on every episode, plus three featurettes and "Multi-angle Scene Studies" on selected episodes.Other noteworthy releases coming next week: Banacek Season 1 from Hart Sharp and TV Guide, Frasier Season 9, Home Improvement Season 6, Martin Season 2, The Rockford Files Season 4, and Wings Season 4.

It is my lucky day indeedly. Thanks again Gandwarf!
It's your lucky day. I created a tutorial for the Concetron cliffs. These cliffs can also be used to create a quarry, although I don't explain this in the tutorial. The tutorial teaches you to create this effect (see screenshot).
The tutorial PDF contains 14 pages, but don't be discouraged by it. It's a step by step tutorial with a lot of images.
Check out my City Designer 3 tutorials. See my fantasy (city) maps in this thread.
Gandwarf has fallen into shadow...
Hey Gandwarf, I've been thinking about picking up a copy of CC3 and City Designer, because large city maps are currently the bane of my GM existence. I had the opportunity to play around with CC3 on a friend's computer, and I really liked the sheets system and the fractal tools, but noticed the layers would pop out of sync on occasion and when lots of things were overlapping, the select tool would start to get glitchy. I was only working with the basic CC3 and was making an attempt at a pretty sizeable region map, so it may have been the resource load on my computer... What do you feel the advantages are to CC3 with City Designer over something like Gimp? I don't want to spend the almost $70 to get both unless I'm sure that I'll use it.
City Designer can become sluggish when working on larger cities, unfortunately. It's bearable though. The big advantage is that City Designer was specifically created for people who want to design cities. So it comes with a lot of tools and graphics which can be immediately used to create a city. With City Designer it's possible to create a decent looking city map within 30 minutes. You need to be very good with Gimp to get similar results. Of course, once you get good skills at Photoshop or Gimp the possibilities are nearly limitless! I never regretted buying CC3 and City Designer however and I can certainly recommend it.
Did you already check my tutorials to get some idea how the software works?

Gandwarf, your work is absolutely amazing. Having just found the time to start tinkering with this software I've had for over a year now, I've come to appreciate the colossal amount of work and patience these maps require.
If I might ask a question - how long did something of this scale take you to create? I've taken on the challenge of my games GM to do up the map for the central city in the game, and the example maps he's given me are fairly tremendous and high in detail. Not that I'm balking at such a task, I certainly relish it, but I understand the immensity some of these maps can become. I've got your tutorials downloading as I speak and will blast through them so I can put together a city worthy of them.
Also, what map sizes do you typically use for something this big? I'm having a hard time getting a grasp of what's a good size to use for something like this.
Appreciate the assistance both in form of reply and in tutorials. Once more, absolutely amazing work and you deserve that award in every respect.

Hi decryptix,
Thanks for your comment.
This map took a long time, about 30 - 40 hours or so.
As for sizes... we all know size doesn't matter
But seriously, I started this map on the default size and finished with it I think. If you ever run out of room, just remove the map border and you can expand as much as you like. That's the joy of City Designer 3, it's not a set canvas. You can keep expanding.
Good luck with the tutorials.

I never noticed this tutorial before...always wanted to know how CD3 worked. Thanks!
How did you do the output?
I have tried to save from CD3 as a JPG, but get some weird results. I have also printed as a JPG, but get some fuzziness.
Thanks for you response Gandwarf!
I figured about 50-60, which is likely more realistic for myself given my relative inexperience with the program, so it's nice to know I wasn't too far off.
I still haven't figured out scaling and the like and I've done a few small sections of the world map already, perhaps I should look into that.
Thanks for the information and keep up the fantastic work!

I would like to welcome you to my blog, which I hope will become a forum for issues concerning American symphony orchestras. In the three years since I have become President of the American Symphony Orchestra League I have visited and spent at least one day with 95 U.S. orchestras of all sizes and types, and have heard about 70 of them perform, so I think that I may have an overview that is fairly thoroughly grounded.
For instance, just last week I spent a day with the Board of the Traverse Symphony Orchestra in Michigan - a $900,000/year orchestra. The CD sampler they gave me from a number of their performances was astonishingly good - and the internal spirit and morale of the Board and staff and music director was inspiring. They made a decision about five years ago to raise the artistic level of the orchestra, which meant taking on greater expenses, and they have unquestionably done that. They do have some deficits, but they have a very solid plan for dealing with them, and we spent most of our time together discussing the possibility of a capital campaign scaled appropriately for their community.
A week earlier, I heard the first concert of a new music director in Santa Barbara - Nir Kabaretti. I thought the concert was terrific, and found an orchestra that has been in the black for the past three years, is operating solidly, has very good internal alignment between board, volunteers, staff, musicians, and music director. These are the kinds of stories that don't make the news - and that I hope to report on in this space.
The reason I do all of this traveling is not because I love airports so much, but because the League and I are committed to taking the pulse of our nation's orchestras so that we, as a service organization, can be of the greatest help to our members.
Finally - one thought for those who believe that the orchestra field never changes. On Friday night Oct. 20, I attended the New York Philharmonic's performance of Prokofiev's music, with the original film, of Alexander Nevsky. On Saturday night, I attended a concert of the student orchestra at Northwestern University. The Philharmonic concert was conducted by Xian Zhang, the orchestra's assistant conductor. The first half of the Northwestern concert was conducted by Ruth Lin, a talented doctoral conducting student. Thus, with in about 26 hours, I saw two symphony orchestra concerts conducted by Chinese women. Anyone around this business for any length of time knows that twenty-five years ago the chances of that were zero!
I'll be posting approximately every week, and I promise also not to shy away from the tough issues that the orchestra field faces - even while also trying to report the good news that tends to be hidden because controversy and problems are more attractive to much of the press. I will write about music I hear, about interesting new ideas I encounter, about people I meet, in short about the whole breadth and depth of the orchestra world. From time to time, I may invite a guest blogger. I look forward to exploring our orchestral world with you.

Dear Mr. Fogel,
May I first say how delighted I am that you are beginning this blog. I think it is a fantastic way for you to share some of your views and interesting happenings with those of us that are as large musical dorks (people who quibble about the minutia of orchestras). It's a beautiful thing.
In regards to your note to those of us who feel that the orchestra field never changes, you have raised a valid point. Indeed, years ago it would have been highly unlikely for a broader range in the cultural diversity and backgrounds of conductors. We are now in a different time--one of greater transportation and globalization, more services we can tap into and use to global proportions. And how is orchestral music reflecting these changes in our daily lives-- the way we conduct business, the ways we live, interact, associate with one another as humans and in our rapidly changing physical and cultural environments?
The presence of the two Chinese, female conductors is good. We need a broader range of cultural diversity within the performing arts in general, and those who attend performances. Still, that does not change the artistic deliverance of those works. Having live music to Alexander Nevsky is not revolutionary--the NSO did it some years ago. And I happen to know Ruth Lin. Although I do not remember where she grew up, I hope it wouldn't offend her if I said that she seems quite acclimated to the States. She spent her undergrad at Northwestern, as well, meaning she has lived here for some time at the very least.
It is wonderful to read your field reports, speaking of the excellent quality of the musicianship of notable smaller, regional orchestras. That is the first step. What else are these fine ensembles able to do to entice audiences and excite them about classical music?
Is such skepticism unmerited? If having two Chinese, female conductors is the best example of the orchestra field changing, the field is in need of some inner and outer reflection.
Perhaps one of the greatest services the ASOL can offer to its member (and all) orchestras is the skepticism and criticism necessary for them to become a contemporary form of art. Ask the difficult questions about how they are artistically satisfying (if at all) their audiences and in what ways. And, mainly, what can they do better?
Terrific to see your Blog! what a great way to invigorate a first hand comittment to our exciting orchestral life in the US. Of course what we all want are some of your legendary speeches on podcast for traveling and distant "Vogel" admirers. Good Luck!
I have, for many years, appreciated your views on the 'State of the Union" I look forward to your thoughts through your Blog.
As a former Orchestra Manager, now working in theatre, I may be lured back again if we can truly adress the hard tough issues inherent in the structure and mindsets.
As conservatories have master teachers, you are the symphony orchestra's 'grande homme'. Many friends are excited when you visit their city--your voice of experience, assertion and evaluation has helped so many. You mention Traverse City--did you stay at the resort with the creative wooden lobby? Safe travels--hope to see you again as in Milwaukee--great fun!
This is great, Henry!!! Once again, you're on the innovative edge...
Henry - welcome to the blogosphere! I'm particularly glad to find you here, as you have consistently been a voice of reason respected by many (in spite of the shrill voices from all sides of the orchestral wilderness).
Delighted you are blogging, Henry. I will forward a link to my colleagues in China--they will be especially thrilled to see your conductor comments. The League might also consider linking the blog to a translation device: as the Ministry of Culture of the PRC is in the process of "marketizing" much of what had previously been supported by the State, Chinese orchestras can use all the mentoring they can get, be it in person or through blogs.

Longji Rice Terraces' Most Beautiful Period Arrives
The irrigation of Longji Rice Terraces begins today, which means that Longji Rice Terraces comes into its most beautiful period: early summer, lasting from middle May to middle June. Check out the list of China's most beautiful rice terraces.
Early summer is the time for planting rice, so the entire Longji Rice Terraces are full irrigated with water, which makes terraces like mirrors when the sun is shining.
Photographers get up early in the morning and wait for the sunrise, so as to capture the image of the terraces reflecting the light and being shadowed by the mist.
Since the weather is great, being warm, but not at its hottest, hiking in the Longji Rice Terraces Scenic Area is highly recommended. Some China highlights' staff members will go hiking in the terraces this weekend.
Touring to China in early summer, you can travel with the great weather (warm but not as its hottest), avoiding the peak season crowns, enjoying cost-efficient travel, and the best natural scenery of the year. Check out the list of China's best places to visit in early summer.

Renaldo Thomas felt bad about being removed as the boys basketball coach at his alma mater, Roosevelt. But there was some agitation with the process and the outspoken coach had a lot to say Wednesday night.
Much of it had to do with Roosevelt athletic director A.J. Rodriguez.
"We've had five ADs this (past) school year and A.J.'s been there three times and everyone knows he's trying to find another job," Thomas said. "He's bringing in a bunch of hired guns from East Chicago to coach."
Rodriguez confirmed that Panthers girls basketball coach Lani Edmonds is no longer coaching at Roosevelt after going 2-9 in her first year on the job. Rodriguez said that Roosevelt has hired a new football coach, Ronald Wright, who will replace Jeff Karras, who was fired before the season ended last fall.
Roosevelt did not enter a girls basketball or girls tennis team in the IHSAA tournament. Roosevelt entered teams in the baseball and softball sectional brackets, but none showed to participate.
"That tells me that A.J. doesn't care about Roosevelt athletics," Thomas said.
Thomas did not know a football coach had been hired, but wondered why it took so long to replace Karras.
"There's no one standing in line for that misery," Thomas said.
Thomas is a legend at 'Velt, leading the Panthers to the 1982 state championship game, losing to Plymouth in double overtime. He went to Houston and played for the Phi Slama Jama team that lost to North Carolina State in the 1983 NCAA national championship game.
He coached Lew Wallace for six seasons and went 65-68. His program advanced to the 2010 Class 3A state final, losing in overtime to Washington.
After taking a season off, Thomas returned to his alma mater and went 2-16 last winter.
"Roosevelt used to hire Roosevelt people to coach," Thomas said. "A lot of people aren't coming back. I did my best to rebuild the program but I had a lot of people working against me. (Rodriguez) is hand-picking the people he wants and most of them are from East Chicago."
Rodriguez, an E.C. native and former football coach for the Cardinals, did not return a call seeking his side of the story.
"I'm there for Roosevelt, it's always been my dream job," Thomas said. "But I felt uneasy in my exit interview. I want to see the project through. I never complained. I was happy. I'm going to put some feelers out. I want to coach and see what's out there. Maybe Gary, Indiana has run its course."

As a lifelong resident of Cincinnati and greater Cincinnati, I was aghast at Mayor John Cranley's edict. The voters passed the streetcar.
How can he demand that they pay an amount that is impossible to raise in a week?
Are they children that he is punishing for their vote? He just wants the residents to fail so that it takes the heat off of him.
Setting people up to fail doesn't become our mayor, and breaking a contract doesn't become our mayor.
If more voters had gone to the polls, would he have become our mayor?

To be perfectly honest, I never really understood the whole 80% diet 20% exercise rule.
First off, what does 80% diet even mean? Losing weight is 100% based on net calories. Whether that's done through diet and/or exercise is completely up to you and your personal needs.
However, I believe that eating clean and healthy can only help you so much if you are already "fit" or "skinny" to begin with. Eating healthy should really be a solid foundation must always be established. But eating super clean can only take you so far (not to mention it's also unsustainable if you feel like you're restricting yourself from eating foods you enjoy). Once you reach that point where you've lost most of your weight and eat clean most of the time, then it's time to overcome that plateau and step up the exercise regime.
My advice? If you're just starting your fitness journey, sure 80% diet and 20% exercise will definitely lead you to good results, especially if you're used to eating unhealthy to begin with. Do your whole routine of eating X amount of calories a day and having one cheat day a week. Slowly start to love the feeling of eating healthy and notice how you'll feel like crap after eating something super unhealthy (not because you feel guilty but because it's all useless empty calories that don't even really fill you up anyways).
Once you've become comfortable and knowledgeable on what foods and nutrients you need in your body, start to realize that allowing yourself cheat meals once a week isn't really something that can be sustained for the rest of your life. It's all in having a healthy relationship with food and eating foods that you enjoy (not to mention you'll find yourself craving less junk food). And if you're still looking to drop some weight? Then go out and exercise!
After what seems like 2-3 years of trying out different methods of losing weight, I've only recently come upon something that I truly believe will be sustainable. I LOVE food, so I noticed that I get the fastest and most efficient results when I focus less on eating super duper clean and more on being active every single day. I never really have cheat days anymore because I eat what I want in moderation. Hell, I had almost 3 slices of pizza for dinner last night and didn't even go over my net calories because I ran 3.5 miles that day. No guilt whatsoever!
