LXer: Low End Linux Netbook Prices Continue To Drop
Published at LXer:
Last month I wrote about netbooks powered by the MIPS processor, originally developed by SGI. I also pointed out that the price for the Belco Alpha 400 had dropped to $149 last December and January. That is now the regular price for the lowest of low end Linux netbooks at Geeks.com. Last week they had a special and the price dropped to $139.
Believe it or not that doesn't sound like a bargain right now. A number of vendors are closing out the much more capable Asus EeePC 900A. Geeks.com is offering it for $149, the same price as the Belco Alpha 400, and they're thowing in an mp3 player.

It's official! For the first time in the history of The B-Movies Podcast, Professor Witney Seibold has won the annual Oscar bet. Now, his co-host has to pay the ultimate price: eating three, whole, very large lemons on camera. Sound easy to you? Go ahead and try it. Just be aware that you may not have any tooth enamel left afterwards.
So what happened? On the new video episode of The B-Movies Podcast, Witney and William "Bibbs" Bibbiani recap the Oscars, rate Seth MacFarlane's performance and talk about all the surprise winners that screwed Bibbs out of digesting properly for a week. Did Brave really deserve Best Animated Feature? How did Christoph Waltz win an Oscar for Django Unchained, when he basically gave the same performance in Inglourious Basterds? When was the last Oscar tie? And why was Best Director, of all categories, the biggest surprise of the night?
And how the hell does Bibbs hold up while eating five, giant, acidic lemons on camera? You'll just have to watch the latest video episode of The B-Movies Podcast to find out!
William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold are the co-hosts of CraveOnline's B-Movies Podcast and the co-stars of The Trailer HItch. Follow them on Twitter at @WilliamBibbiani and @WitneySeibold.

Sportsbet History
Sportsbet was acquired by Matthew Tripp in 2005, when he purchased the small Darwin-based bookmaker for only $250,000. It didn't take Tripp long to grow the business from 8 employees to 250, with the company's expansion coinciding with the widespread uptake of online betting in Australia.
Sportsbet also benefited by having a brand name similar to TAB Sportsbet, often causing some confusion amongst punters with regards to brand.
In early 2009 Sportsbet was acquired by Irish gambling giant Paddy Power, one of the world's most well-known betting brands. Sportsbet was already enjoying huge traction on the Australian market, but the arrival of Paddy Power saw the market share grow again, cementing Sportsbet as the largest bookmaker in Australia. Paddy Power completed their acquisition of Sportsbet in 2011.
Sportsbet OddsSportsbet offers a variety of betting products, promising to give you more value and more fun. They stand out from the other bookmakers by offering the earliest prices on all racing events, often leading the way with the betting markets before the other corporate bookmakers follow suit.
Sportsbet cover thousands of betting markets, offering a wide variety of prices and bet types on each:
Racing Markets:
- Win and Place Fixed price betting
- Top Tote Plus - the best of the 3 major TABs (QLD, NSW and VIC) on every race, every day of the year

The Mediating Role Of Attitudes In Trading Companies' Shares
The survival of publicly listed companies largely depends on their shares being liquidly traded. This goal can be achieved when new investors are attracted to trade on companies' shares. Among different groups of investors, individual investors are generally less able to objectively evaluate companies' risks and returns, and tend to be emotionally biased in their trading decisions. Therefore their decisions may be formed as a result of 'perceived' risks and returns, and influenced by companies' images. This study finds that 'attitude towards brand' mediates moderately the relationships between its perceptual antecedents and individual investors' trading decisions. This finding suggests that in courting individual investors, companies may adopt adequate marketing strategies to leverage with their current financial performance as such strategies should enhance their images that attract investors to trade on their shares.

ssroczyn added a post in a topic Tamiya Subaru Impreza WRC '98 - '99Hi!
Very nice builds of this car!
Do you mind posting a few pics of the under carriage?
I'm curious to see what you did!
Great Builds and Thanks!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic Almost Box Stock Bad ActorGreat Job on this Car!! I really like the look that you
gave it, it came together very well!
And on another note, every time I convince myself that I'm not
interested in this kit someone such as yourself comes along and
shows me a build like this. Now I'm fighting hard to not log onto
Great Job!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic 57 Corvette GasserNice Build on a troublesome kit! Successfully building this
kit could be a great initiation task for any model car building
club in my opinion. I'm like three steps away from finishing
my own!!
Do you have any pictures with the front end flipped open?
I'm interested in seeing how you did the hinges!
Nice Car!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic IMSA Mustang .Nice Car! I've been waiting to see a build of one of these posted!
Any chance you could show some pictures of the interior?
ssroczyn added a post in a topic 1969 CamaroNice Car and I really like the color!
Can you share with us what kind of
paint and color you used?
Great Job!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic I See a Little Silhouetto of a ManThat is awesome, seeing that made my day I love Wayne's World!!!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic 56 Ford F100I'm currently in the process of building three of these including this
Ed Roth version. The other two are the Red Street Demon and the
the Blue Street Version. Of the three, I noticed the same type of
fit with the hood of the Ed Roth Version. I wondered why the "newest"
version had the worst fit.
So, win, lose or draw, I'm pressing forward with my builds hoping for
some success!
I think the bigger challenge of the Ed Roth kit will be the decals! I
have a small bottle of Testors Dark Red that I plan to use to fill in
the gaps between the decals and the edges of the truck.
Hope you decide to give it a try!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic Bugatti EB110, Revell, 1/24 ***NEW PHOTOS ADDED***Great Job on a very difficult Kit! The finished
results are just like I imagined it would be!!
I really do like this car and the kit! And you have
inspired me to take mine off the shelf, blow the
dust off it and give it another try!
Great Job and a Great Looking Car!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic Bugatti EB110, Revell, 1/24I'm very glad to see someone not only attempt this build
but succeed in building it rather well! I like this car alot!
I tried this build about 10 years ago and dang near almost
finished. But at the very end it didn't seem like it was all
going to fit together all that well. I have another kit on
standby in case I ever decide to tackle it again. And after
seeing this post, I just might!
I also have this same kit from Airfix which is rather nice
it was fun to compare the parts between the two kits.
I'll be anxious to see the final build!!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic Chevy II El camino styleVery Nice car indeed!
Can you share with us what color the body is?
That is a very nice pearl!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic '77 Firebird Formula tribute buildThe only way that I can think of to say this is:
Dude! This is a Way Cool Build!
I need to put together my list of Top 10 Favorite Builds
in this Forum and this one would be in it. The Subject
Matter and your Finished Build are Awesome!
Nice Job!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic What have I got myself into... Mustang Triple.Good Luck with this, I'm working on a triple build myself, 3 Revell 56 Ford Pickups!
I'll be following this!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic Peugeot 206 '99 WRCGreat Job, I like this car!
Do you have any pictures of it
from underneath? I'm curious to
see what you did!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic 37 fordVery sharp car!
Some of my favorite cars on this forum are the ones
where the builder had a clear vision of what they wanted
to do and then executed superbly! You have clearly
done that here. Everything came together very well!
This car is very sleek and nicely done! Great Job!
ssroczyn added a post in a topic '60 Chevy Pickup "Purple Nurple"Hi Dave,
Thanks for sharing that! I always wondered if that color would
look good on a car, and in your case a truck, and it looks great!!
I have a 59 Implala that I have been planning to use that same
purple on and now that I see your truck I'm convinced!
I like it!
Thanks Again!

text: Hopefully none of the Nikkormat lovers are sleeping out there. Here's a Nikkormat FTn in black (serial number FT 4469560) which could be the twin brother of the other skinned up and scarred up Nikkormat around here today. Maybe this and the EL were drinking buddies. But wear doesn't bother me. A camera is a tool, after all. If it shows much use, then that tells me it probably did a very good job for a prior owner. Think about it. If you own 2 pair of pliers and one works really swell but the other somehow causes you to pinch your fingers every time you use it, which one is going to show the most use? So, let's talk about Mr. Nikkormat number 2 for the day, shall we? The top of the pentaprism is both slightly dented and brass is showing. There is a slight ding to the right (facing it) side. Otherwise the top plate shows brassing and has a scratch & nick or two and two odd dents coming from inside out over by the rewind knob, but nothing too bad. I mean it doesn't look like it has been dropped or anything. The "Nikon Japan" letters need to be re-filled with white. Actually I'll do this if you remember to ask me to. The film frame counter number window is clear and nice. There is paint loss at the hinge and brassing at the latch. Bottom plate shows universal edge brassing and nicks/scratches, etc but again...doesn't look like it was ever dropped. A couple of spots of paint loss near the film speed selector on the bottom. Film door edges (upper and lower) both show paint loss. Paint loss around the viewfinder nut, too. Negative aspects aside, let's talk about the positives, shall we? Mirror is nice and clean and the focus screen is nice, too. Self-timer works fine. Shutter cocks smoothly and operates crisply and with less noise than you'd expect. Film frame counter resets as it should. Meter works and seems to be accurate. Meter needle on top of camera is fine, nice window too. Battery will be left in there...an EPX625 whose voltage is 1.35 pretty much on the nose. Shutter speeds seem right. Lens is the Nikkor 50mm 1:2. Serial number 3237279. Very smooth focus, sharp and clean aperture blades, clean glass with no damage, should take great pictures for you. After all, this lens according to many was Nikon's sharpest. This is one of the later of the series as it will focus down to about 1.5 ft, but interestingly it is pre AI. The recessed front element means you won't need to worry about flare, too. New light seals & damper pad. All in all another fine "user" Nikkormat. $60 plus actual cost of postage. PayPal ok for international and check/cash/money order for USA buyers, please. If questions, please send to email@example.com Jon

Tyler Dickerson Wows Industry Crowd at Mt. Richmore
Country newcomer, 16-year-old Tyler Dickerson, knows firsthand that Nashville is a town that can make or break dreams. He knows because his are all coming true. At a showcase Thursday night at his producer and mentor John Rich's house (known as Mt. Richmore), Tyler took the stage and commanded it with the presence of a seasoned veteran, proving he's obviously packed a lot of living into just 16 years.
John proudly introduced Tyler to the crowd as '"a veteran, the outlaw kid, my adopted nephew. He's a prodigy, he's the real McCoy. You hear the tone is this man's voice … if you knew about his life story you'd call him a man, too. He's had one hell of a life, 16 going on about 40 right now and you can hear it in his voice. True country music to me are artists, not singers. The difference between a singer and an artist — an artist says something that only they can say, and they sound only like themselves. Tyler Dickerson is a by-god country artist."
And so Tyler took the stage, all stick-straight straw blonde hair under a black cowboy hat, and lived up to every bit of that introduction. His single, 'Tell Your Sister I'm Single,' is pure radio fun, but there's definitely more to this kid than that, as he proved on songs like 'Bad Boy,' and the sweetly honest, 'She'd Be You.' Any question of Tyler's devotion to and appreciation of Nashville and country's colorful history and roots was removed when he called Tootsie (the original owner of the club where he performed for two years and landed his deal) by her full name onstage. And any question about his talent was removed when he performed the song that got him his record deal and started the ball rolling on his career, 'Always on My Mind,' the pop-country smash most closely associated with Willie Nelson.
It was hard to keep a dry eye when Tyler explained the significance of the song and just how far he's come in such a short time. "I started singing when I was 9 and this song I'm about to sing for you is the song that got me into the country music industry, and the artist who sang it is one of my heroes and this song means a lot to me. I started doing it when I was 9 and picked up a guitar when I was 10, and moved to Nashville when I was 13. I started playing at Tootsie's at 13, and a year ago in June is when I signed my deal with Lyric Street Records. And that still gives me chills to say that. And when I signed my deal my mom and dad and sister and I were living in a popup camper at the KOA campground. And you can only imagine 4 people living in a popup camper in a KOA and only having one car. It was in the dead middle of winter, and below zero outside, and we didn't have heat inside the camper and we stayed in that for about 5 months. And there were times I would go sleep out in the car. I got down about it and felt like it was my fault, and beat myself up over it every day. And I lost sleep over it and when Lyric Street came along I was able to get myself out of that situation, and out of everything I've accomplished, that was probably one of my biggest accomplishments was getting my family out of that camper. So every day I wake up it's like one more puzzle piece falling into place in this puzzle."
Another piece of the puzzle had fallen in place earlier that day as well, when it was announced that Tyler would be opening Brooks & Dunn's final tour beginning in April. He closed out the memorable evening with an appropriate medley of Merle Haggard's 'Workin Man Blues,' and the Johnny Cash classic, Folsom Prison Blues,' paying homage to some of the outlaws who have obviously informed his music and may just be in his soul as well.

text: Is there really one or two with high ceilings like AJ Green and Julio Jones? Bring up your case. I haven't really reviewed this year crop in depth, but I think Justin Hunter may have the highest ceiling due to his physicality. He certainly has the frame to put on another 10-20 lbs. Don't forget that Lestar Jean was a skimpy 195 lbs in the second year of his Senior season. I mentioned this some time ago after I watched an early game that year (it was either the second or third game of the season) and Jean was really thin at that height.

HI Peter,
Unfortunately, there is no proven remedy yet for slowing progression of osteoarthritis other than weight loss. But I am betting that you are not overweight, so that doesn't help. I am also assuming that osteoarthritis is the type of arthritis that you have. I wouldn't put off the knee replacement surgery if you are very symptomatic. Getting 20 good years post-knee replacement is pretty good compared to 30 years ago when the surgery started. Then, you could only expect 10 good years. Plus, the revision surgeries are now very successful, too. Recovery from knee replacement surgery is also much quicker and less painful than in the old days. I would agree with your doctors to go ahead with it. good luck !!

By TREVOR GRAFF
KHI News Service
TOPEKA — Proposed legislation that would add new fees to municipal water bills drew varied opposition during a hearing today in the House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee.
But Rep. Tom Sloan, the Lawrence Republican who sponsored the bill, said it would allow the state to acquire more water storage rights in the federal reservoirs managed by the U.S. Corps of Engineers.
"Most of our reservoirs are 50 and 60 years old," Sloan said. "We have not been taking care of them. Part of the reason that the language is in this bill is to allow us to acquire water storage capacity that we have options on is so we manage the water not the Corps."
House Bill 2439 would create a 10-cent per 1,000-gallon fee on sale of water by municipal utilities. The fee would increase to 18 cents per 1,000 gallons in three years.
It would raise more than $9.3 million per year, which also could fund efforts to control or remove silt from the reservoirs, which have been filling in with sediment as they age.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers grants the state an option to purchase water storage in Kansas reservoirs.
The measure drew opposition from the Kansas Livestock Association, the Kansas Water Office, and others who said it might conflict with a 50-year plan being developed the Kansas Water Authority. That plan is expected to be complete by Nov. 1.
"The Brownback administration will investigate, through outreach to numerous stakeholders, a range of issues including the viability of future water supplies in Kansas' reservoirs," said Aaron Popelka, vice president of legal and governmental affairs for the livestock association. "It would be premature to advance HB 2439 before this comprehensive planning report is concluded."
The Kansas Forest Service proposed amending the bill so that some of the money raised from the water fees could be used to restore riverbanks, including the planting of native trees.
Larry Biles, Kansas Forester said streamside forests could save $9.5 million in sediment dredging costs annually.
"Sediment is real," he said. "We can no longer ignore growing sediment issues in my view. If we can stabilize stream banks, we can slow the effects of sediment and avoid costs."
According to estimates from the Kansas Division of Budget, the measure would $1.50 a month to the water bill for an average family of four.
No action was taken on the bill.

Wake County Restaurant News
How can we not start out our conversation today without talking about the upcoming N.C. State Fair (Oct. 15-25) in Raleigh. And more specifically, their Weekday Lunch Card. Here's how it works. Enter Gate 9 (Trinity Road) or Gate 1 (Hillsborough Street) and purchase a $10 Lunch Card. You can do so weekdays beginning at 11:30 a.m. And as long as you exit by 1:30 p.m. (that's 2 hours of good eats), you get your $10 back. Cash only.
Fans of Bali Hai (you'll remember a fire closed the Raleigh location on Wake Forest Road) will be excited to know that a location in Garner opened last week next to the Lowe's Hardware at the 70/401 split.

OUT: Sunday Column February 15, 2009
It's the time of year when ice anglers need to be cautious
This midwinter warming has brought thin ice to some lower-elevation lakes and reservoirs, indicating February might be the last month for hard-water anglers to enjoy their sport on some local lakes.
If the ice stays thick enough long enough.
"There's no such thing as safe ice," cautioned Zach Taylor, park ranger at Rifle Gap State Park.
"We already have a lot of open water on the east end of the reservoir."
Last week, a park ranger at Chatfield State Park in Denver pulled out of the water a fisherman who broke through thin ice. Thanks to the ranger's quick actions, the angler went home wet and cold but otherwise little worse for the experience.
However, it might have been calamitous had a nearby jogger not heard the man's shouts.
The angler broke at least one of the Top 10 Rules of Ice Fishing: Never go out alone.
"Or at least wear a life preserver and carry ice awls to help you get out," Taylor suggested.
He said Rifle Gap still holds plenty of ice around the boat ramp and west. Same goes for Harvey Gap, Taylor said, adding he's relying on angler reports for that information.
Warm afternoons are causing some ice pull-back from the shores, a common occurrence in spring and something anglers should be prepared to see.
"And be careful about thinking just because it's safe where you drill, the ice is thick everywhere," Taylor warned. "You can move eight to 10 feet and be over thin ice."
A list of ice-fishing good habits from Colorado State Parks includes never going out with less than 4 inches of ice and always assume unsafe ice conditions exist.
That holds even at Blue Mesa Reservoir, where ice might be 4 feet thick but suspended 30 feet over the water because of winter draw downs.
Signs of unsafe ice include: ice of different colors, water on top of the ice, cracks, pressure ridges, open water and bubbles in the ice.
If you do venture onto the ice, remember the following ice safety tips, courtesy of Colorado State Parks:
• Never go onto the ice alone;
• Avoid alcoholic beverages;
• Wear a life jacket or personal flotation device (PFD);
• Carry a personal safety kit, including an ice pick, rope and a whistle for help;
• Keep your pets on a leash when around a frozen lake or pond. If your dog falls through the ice, do not attempt a rescue, go for help;
• Remember "Reach-Throw-Go." If you can't reach the person from shore, throw a flotation device or a rope. If that fails, go for help.
Finally, no one can guarantee you that the ice is safe. The decision to go out onto the ice is personal. Take the precautions to reduce the risks.
A gentler, kinder BLM? — With the news the Bureau of Land Management has opted to defer a 907-acre energy lease sale in waters fostering two populations of Colorado River cutthroat trout,
we wonder what's changed.
Oh, yeah, right, there's a new president and a new view of a true multiple-use public lands environment.
"Deferring this single lease was simply the right thing to do," said Corey Fisher, energy field coordinator with Trout Unlimited. "We evaluate a lot of oil and gas leases in trout habitat to make sure effective protections are in place, but it is not often that a lease contains one, let alone two conservation populations of these rare trout."
There still are problems — the BLM office in Fillmore, Utah, continues to be stuck in 2004 — but recent changes in lease sales elsewhere indicate there's a reduction of the pressure from Washington on local BLM field offices.
The recent deferment of the lease in Moffat County on the headwaters of the Little Snake River is "encouraging," Fisher said.
The BLM deferral, along with some similar withdrawals by the Forest Service, indicated both agencies are "committed to working with sportsmen and other stakeholders to ensure oil and gas drilling is done responsibly." Fisher said.
"It is encouraging to see our public land management agencies beginning to look before they leap into decisions that could significantly affect these small, but critically important parts of Colorado's natural heritage," he said.

BANGKOK — The price of oil fell slightly Friday, extending losses below $105 a barrel after a report from the International Energy Agency said supplies would exceed an expected rise in demand next year.
Benchmark crude for August delivery was down 19 cents at $104.72 a barrel at early afternoon Bangkok time in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract fell $1.61 to close at $104.91 on Thursday.
Oil had shot higher in recent days on a dramatic drop in U.S. supplies of oil and gasoline but its rise to a 16-month high was halted by the IEA's forecast Thursday.
The agency expects supply growth to result in an additional 1.3 million barrels of oil a day in 2014, while global demand is forecast to grow by 1.2 million barrels a day next year.
"Non-OPEC supply growth looks on track to hit a 20-year record next year," the IEA said in its monthly oil market report. "While demand growth is also forecast to pick up momentum ... this will still fall short of forecast non-OPEC supply growth."
Brent crude was down 10 cents at $106.94 on the ICE Futures exchange in London.
In other energy futures trading on Nymex:
— Wholesale gasoline rose 2.2 cents to $2.993 a gallon.
— Natural gas was down 0.2 cent at $3.611 per 1,000 cubic feet.
— Heating oil was little changed at $2.996 a gallon.

Worse Than Watergate or It Isnt Too Late for the GOP to Steal Another Election
The polls are clear. Americans trust Obama, and they do not like Mitt Romney, the man who never met a job he wasnt ready to ship overseas, the man who is not concerned with senior citizens and disabled veterans, the man whose campaign emblem is the Etch-A-Sketch. Right now, Democrats are feeling pretty confident. But before you decide that your vote wont be needed this fall, please consider some recent elections.
In 1980, Carter was way ahead of Reagan, until the debates. The press liked the way the aging actor played his part. The press declared Reagan the winner, and his poll numbers shot up. If the press decides to declare Romney the winner of the debates, the public may decide that he is not so bad after all.
In 2000, the Supreme Court took the vote out of our hands. Recall that Gore won the election. He won in Florida. But the SCOTUS stepped in to stop the vote. You may be less worried about the Gang of Five this time around, because Roberts did not strike down the Health Care law. I am not convinced that he is on our side. The Health Care Law is very popular with the Insurance Industry and the Medical Industrial Complex. Roberts decision may have been a matter of special interests trumping Tea Party ideology. There is no way to know for sure that he will not step in to block a recount in Ohio. This election could determine the makeup of his court.
Voter suppression made the Florida 2000 results close. Brother Jeb and Secretary of State Harris hired a firm to create a phony felons list, in which lawful Florida voters were stripped from the rolls, because their names were similar to names of felons in other states. In 2004, Ohio Secretary of State Blackwell went even farther. Democratic precincts were not given enough polling machines. Democrats were illegally stripped from voting rolls. The nations news organizations conspired to suppress incriminating exit polls.
This time around, voter suppression has been taken to a new level. Minorities, disabled voters and seniors who may fear Romney-Ryans plan to eliminate Medicare and Social Security are being targeted with Voter ID laws, aka Poll taxes which have been enacted in a number of states, including the battleground state of Pennsylvania. Republicans have selected Democrats all across the nation for challenges. In Texas, the living are being told they are dead, because their names are similar to the names of dead folks, or they were born on the same day as someone who has died. In Ohio, election officials have attempted to cut back on Democratic precinct voting hours while providing expanded hours in Republican precincts. In Florida, new laws make it almost impossible to conduct voter registration drives---while the GOP hires consultants to fill out phony voter registration forms.
Republicans have boasted---openly---that these tactics are designed to help them steal the election. You can bet that the RNC coordinated the various voter suppression plans, making it all one great big conspiracy to violate the voting rights act. But, no matter have egregious the violations, if two or three national news organizations, say Fox and CBS declare Romney the winner, the press will then pressure the administration to accept defeat gracefully, the way they pressured Gore and Kerry.
Dont count on the courts to block the implication of these Voting Rights Act violating laws. The Supreme Court can step in and declare that all of them are allowed to go into effect just this one time.
Oh, and the electronic voting systems that were put in place under Bush-Cheney-Rove are still as hackable as ever. And the last I heard, sleep overs are still allowed. Meaning your touch screen vote will only count if Democratic turnout is so large that the exit polls confirm a Democratic landslide, with no room for margin of error fudging.
Despite the poll numbers, I put this one at at a hair short of a dead heat, because of the Republican Partys massive election fraud conspiracy. The crimes we see committed this time will make CREEP in 1972---aka Watergate---seem like petty larceny. If you want to see any GOP operatives go to jail for their crimes, you had better make sure that the Democrats still control the DOJ next year.
And the only way to do that is to get out the vote.

ralphmelton X1, thank you for posting all that. Our plans include a few extra days in New Orleans, so we have a bit of time to try these tips. We're particularly interested in some of the tours. Are there tours you would particularly recommend or disrecommend? We're also interested in trying some of New Orleans' renowned fine cuisine amidst all our Roadfooding, and would appreciate recommendations there.
ralphmelton We'll arrive Wednesday night and leave Sunday evening, so we have only two nights and two days there outside the festival. My expectation is that this means I'll be gazing wistfully at more than half the 20 Roadfood-listed places in New Orleans, even if I don't manage to visit Cajun country. My plan is to hope the festival brings some Cajun cooking to us.
X1 Also - they are not TROLLEYS - they are STREETCARS. We're very sensitive about that.
russ2304 I know most if not all will NOT be considered Roadfood-----------but I was on the road and here is where we ate: Cochon The Butcher Herbsaint Bayona American Sector Bombay Club Bourbon House Acme Oyster House Harrah's Buffet Oceana Cafe Du Monde Each unique and different and after 3rd trip to NOLA-----------best eatin' yet!

Boxes, Boxes!Creating 3D geometry easily in After Effects 6
If you looked at my previous tutorial on this topic, "Cube Please," and considered making other objects, you know how difficult it is in AE and how quickly you can be turned upside down (without wanting such a result).
Enter Box Creator Lite, Cubic Distribution Light and Cylinder Creator Lite--which are, incidentally, anything but "lite." With these, cubes and other 3D geometric objects are just a click away. So how do you use them? The first thing you'll want to know is how to find them. Unlike the other Digital Anarchy filters, which show up under your Effects menu, these are down at the end of the line under Windows.
The second thing necessary to using these plugins is 3D. As in "Cube Please," 3D layers are required to use these Assistants.
All set? Good. Let's get started with our cube.
The first thing I'll do is import a Photoshop comp with six layers in it. (The layers are just various pieces of a wood texture courtesy of Dave Taylor and Maxon.net.) The six layers are required for a hexahedron (cube). Make sure they are converted to 3D layers and selected, and then open up the window for Box Creator Lite.
Check the "Fit Box to Layers," and hit "Apply." Done!
Wait a minute. Done? Yep. And here's the result.
I added a few lights to show off the 3D depth of the final cube, but the actual creation of the cube was a single-step process.

If you missed the Pendleton Heights Holiday Homes Tour this last weekend, then you missed one of the best neighborhood hosted events in Historic Northeast, bar none. This Newshound has seen more than a few so that's sayin' something.
Quite literally, the planets aligned and it was a fantastic event. Tour organizers should be proud. They really pushed the envelope with the pop-up gallery in the gymnasium at Scuola Vita Nuova and the food trucks lined up on Amie by Garfield Elementary School. It was just like it used to be back in the 1990s when both Pendleton Heights and Scarritt Renaissance neighborhoods hosted tours that rivaled Hyde Park in terms of attendance and pre-event excitement.
Initial reports indicate that roughly 500 guests strolled through the neighborhood on a picture perfect day in early December. This nosy newspooch would like to offer up some hefty kudos to tour organizers and the volunteers who really made this a stellar event. Historic Northeast proud.

I wonder if producers tied their hands. They went against Tim Gunn's advice on that 13th design (in the Finale). He said it was unfair to the contestants. They said we need drama for ratings.
I tend to think the producers wanted certain types at the end and that mattered more than the output. After all, Nick was great and the audience hated when he was Aufed. I wonder if producers thought, well they're all talented, so let's pick a type.
This article does Chloe a disservice, though. The more times I see her collection down the Finale runway, the more I like it. It is the only one of the three which looked couture to me. Also a good choice in music, I thought. Santino using his own seemed amateurish and egotistical.
He wore a Jean Michel Basquiat T shirt at the end. (On the next to last show, I think.) Basquiat also created his own music as well as painted, but, I think Santino is not Basquiat.

Cooperation called key to solving sewer woes
Problem too costly otherwise, panel says work together to reduce costs studyMarch 16, 2013 8:00 AM
A committee assembled by the Allegheny Conference on Community Development did the easy part by recommending Friday that area municipalities work together to address a multibillion-dollar sewer overflow problem.
Now comes the hard part -- making it happen.
The committee presented the results of a six-month study that called for the 83 communities that are part of the Allegheny County Sanitary Authority to take a regional approach to solving a problem that occurs every time there is heavy rain -- untreated sewage overflowing into area streams and rivers. Alcosan and the municipalities are under a federal consent decree that mandates improvements.
Group calls for regional approach to sewer overflow problem
A group led by the Allegheny Conference on Community Development this morning called for regional approach to the Pittsburgh area's multi-billion dollar sewer overflow problem. (Video by Kalea Hall; 3/15/2013)
Richard Hadley, executive director of the Allegheny League of Municipalities, called the recommendation for a regional approach "a good first step."
"It's not easy, and it won't be easy, but it's the right time for everyone to come together," said Mr. Hadley, who was a member of the committee. "I think the timing is right for looking for those areas where we can work together to reduce costs."
The committee, headed by CMU president Jared Cohon, recommended five major changes:
• Alcosan should change the makeup of its seven-member board, which has five Pittsburgh members, to reflect a more regional approach.
• Allegheny County should appoint a wastewater planning coordinator to identify and encourage areas of cooperation.
• Local communities should transfer multi-community trunk lines and water collection facilities to Alcosan.
• Individual communities should consolidate collection systems that already exist or set up new ones by watershed or through Alcosan.
• Communities should work together to identify ways to reduce the amount water infiltrating the system, especially green initiatives such as using rain barrels and permeable concrete to reduce runoff and the cost of corrective actions.
Last month, Alcosan submitted a $2.6 billion plan to revamp sewer systems to reduce sewage overflows in its service area in an effort to meet a mandate from the federal Environmental Protection Agency. The plan, which is under review by the EPA, would eliminate about 79 percent of sewer overflows rather than completely eliminating them as required in the consent decree.
Alcosan officials at the time said the package would double rates for customers by 2026, which was as much as they could afford. Eliminating overflows would cost $3.6 billion and triple rates, the agency said.
In August, Allegheny County Executive Rich Fitzgerald and others called for a greener and more regional approach to the problem. On Friday he said the economic realities of the project will force the issue.
"We're forced to deal with this problem because of the consent decree," Mr. Fitzgerald said. "If everybody goes their own separate way, it will be more expensive.
"This is not something we can just decree. We're going to need everyone to participate."
Mr. Fitzgerald said he would look at the recommendation for a county-level coordinator but made no commitment.
Mr. Cohon and others noted that the Allegheny Conference played a major role in addressing air pollution and flooding problems decades ago, so it is appropriate the agency take the lead in the sewer problem. He also expects costs to foster cooperation.
"I do think this time is different," he said, referring to past failed attempts to get communities to consolidate services. "The stars are aligned. ... They want to do this."
Patricia Schaefer, president of Edgewood Council and a member of the committee, said officials must follow the adage that "water knows no municipal boundaries."
"None of us can afford to fail in this," she said, "and we can't let our neighbors fail, either."region

A series of early and midseason isolines of oats (Avena sativa L.) contain specific crown-rust resistance loci, which were associated with significant grain-yield deviations when tested in rust-free conditions. To delineate specific causes for these yield deviations, yield components were measured in the isolines and their recurrent parents in six rust-free environments.
Increased grain yields in both isolines with the crownrust resistance allele from CI 8079, an Avena sterilis L. strain from Israel, were due primarily to significantly increased tiller production. A 3.0% increase in spikelets per panicle also contributed to the increased yield of CI 9170, the early-maturing isoline.
Although each donor parent was associated with contrasting yield-component expressions in the early and midseason backgrounds in the remaining isoline sets, causes of deviant yields were evident. An increase in panicle number contributed to grain-yield advantages of isolines derived from CI 7171, while seed weight improvement was the most important contributor to yield improvement in the midseason isoline. The significant yield reductions of X5501 and CI 9192, the early and midseason isolines with crown-rust resistance derived from Arena strigosa Schreb., were caused primarily by fewer spikelets per panicle.Please view the pdf by using the Full Text (PDF) link under 'View' to the left.
