Atmosphere- Great. Not too loud, you can still carry on a conversation. The place is so spread out that it helps w/ the noise. Always get a good vibe from this place.
Q/S/S/F- The pizza rocks. I've never gotten anything else there! It's really tasty. The service has always been great. The waitstaff has always been polite, helpful, and knowledgeable. The beer selection is fairly limited w/ drafts, but they usually have some pretty good stuff. Prices are fairly reasonable for Washington DC. Great place to go- other places have a better beer selection, but this is a cool place to mix it up with.

Situated in what is DCs Chinatown or more like DCs China "corner" (there really isn't a Chinatown anymore) is Matchbox pizza.
Inside is a fairly decent looking space with large loft ceilings of a typical DC rowhouse, and tables with glass displays filled with what else matchboxes and other displayed advertising pieces.
Service is young fairly friendly as well without too much misgivings, pizza is alright fairly good better than most places, not exactly the best pizza you'll ever have mind you. The 3-6-9 sliders are popular and the menu is a bit more varied than most pizza places.
Beer selection is small for craft but a good listing of solid and varied styles. You will easily find a good list consisting of a decent pilsner, witbier, American IPA, brown ale, and a few Belgian styles. It's enough to keep any picky beer person happy and find something they will enjoy.
Prices are reasonable and fine for what the DC area offers. One quick note, outside there are often big lineups for what looks like the restaurant, but often this is the lineup to catch the NYC to DC Chinatown buses. These folks are going to NY not the restaurant so don't be deterred all the time if there are a lot of people hanging outside, go in and ask how long the wait will be.

Located right around the corner from RFD, Matchbox Pizza is an impressive looking building with a very modern, urban feel applied to the typical stone and metal look of a wood-fired pizza joint. Through the front door and into a high-ceiling but skinny bar (long and narrow), I'm met by a small but cramped crowd of mohito and Stella drinking urbanites, but in little time I find a seat at the bar. Draft list includes Allagash White, a Rogue, Sierra Nevada and Bells seasonal, Chimay, Delirium Tremens and a few other US craft choices. Food wise it's everything from salad and sandwiches to the wood-fired pizza that everyone is so crazy about. I personally found the pizza mediocore at best. I'd recommend going with the burger sliders here! Service was great, the crowd was fun, but it definitely is not a beer geek only place. Most people were drinking Stella or Delirium, no doubt for the status, but I will recommend this place for people visiting Downtown/Chinatown as an alternative to RFD, where the food is downright awful. However, if you have the chance to visit Pizza Paradiso, skip Matchbox and go there instead, where the beer selection and quality of food is better. Another option would be Ella's Wood Fired Pizza, only a few blocks away. They have a few good beers on tap as well, and are always less crowded than Matchbox.

A: its a great place. Good lighting, cool fire urn out front, matchboxes in the tables. Fun atmosphere but it is always crowded.
Q: Great pizzas and they have a decent beer selection to offer from delirium to craft beers from bells and san francisco breweries.
S: Good, the wait staff is always able to help you figure out what to get and give you options. They are as quick as possible because they are always packed.
Selection: Its a shorter tap list, but they do put some big beers in and don't fall into the macro brewing mold. Very good beer overall.
Food: Sliders and custom pizzas. I can't complain. Very good and there are a lot of good local options.
Value: A bit pricey but its always worth it in the end.

I haven't been to this place in a while, but everytime that I go - I really enjoy it. The bar is small and cosy, but right behind it is the waiting area for those trying to get a table. It can get a little hectic on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday nights. And actually, one of the best times to go is Sunday morning for brunch. The have an excellent a Bloody Mary menu, and some great brunch "pizzas" made mostly with egg. (Think: pizza as an omlet.) The beer list is steady, but they do rotate in a rew good seasonal brews accordingly. Oh and the pizza is some of the best in the city!

Located in the relatively newly gentrified and somewhat fake DC Chinatown it has emerged as one of the references for a trendy bar to show-off for certain types. Luckily the place is quite good, food is solid has some great highlights, and while some of the liquor servings are a bit off and pretentious, they offer a well taken care of draft selection.
At the time of this visit one tap was down and the fresh offering was of 11 selections, with regulars:
Yuengling Lager
Gaffel Kolsch
Great Divide St. Bridget's Porter
Allagash White
Bells Two Hearted Ale
Eggenberg Pils
Stella Artois
Delirium Tremens
Rogue is a rotating tap handle, which had Captain Sig´s Nortwestern Ale (Delicious for my liking)
The seasonal was DFH Festina Peche, which unfortunately and understandably they were having trouble selling (I like it and think it is well crafted for what it is, but for now it is bound to be misunderstood as it comes out of the blue) They told me that once they are done with this choice it will be replaced with a pumpkin ale from New Holland brewevery.
Also by the bottle they offer:
Bud Lite
Miller Lite
Amstel Lite
Food wise it is a getting a reputation for its pizzas in an oven that they brag a bit too much about. But the pizzas are good... And in particular the mini-burguers laced with thinly fried onions are very tasty and memorable.
On the bad side coffee is pretty awful, lacks any espresso machine and some of the liquors are chilled when they should be offered at room temperature (ice them if you like). However staff is friendly and well trained. They typically know the beers they offer pretty well, and often you can find some true knowledgeable beer aficionado among them (more often behind the bar.)

Located just around the corner from RFD, this place seems like an easy place to miss. It's located in a slim piece of real estate (but apparently expanded into the area next door), there is an easy-to recognize sign that says, "Matchbox." But that's if you're on the same side of the street. It's a block away from the Chinatown/Verizon Center stop on the Green/Yellow stop, and a few blocks away from the Metro Center Stop on the Red/Orange/Blue line. It's located just north of Downtown and just west of Chinatown.
Inside is very classy, probably the opposite of a hole in the wall place. A brick wall coats the entire eastern wall of the building, leading to a couple staircases for the three story building. The bar is on the first level, just next to the entrance. The rest of the building is tables. There is also an outdoor patio. The bar is long, has about 20 stools. The bathrooms seem nice as well (an odd thing to include in a review, but I feel it's noteworthy) with both a standard toilet ad a urinal in the men's (didn't visit the women's) and also a Dyson high-pressure "Air Blade" hand dryer. The men's room door is marked with nothing but an M, with the women's having just a W. If you're plastered, you're probably going to make a mistake. The music at the time was nothing but Deep House, which I don't mind (I actually like some of the style), although one bartender asked about the constant "80's music," to which the other replied, Yeah it sucks, doesn't it?"
Along the center of the bar is a line of tap handles, just over 10 of them. They are all craft, plus a Yuengling, with a rotating seasonal tap. They have a wide variety of beers, including hoppy, Hefe Weizens, porters, and Belgians. Everything is in proper glassware. The price is reasonable, especially for DC. The price of the food is on the higher end though, but it's all quality stuff.
Speaking of food, I ordered a small pizza, which is a more-than-modest 10". It's a fire oven, which a bartender stated as 800 degrees, so the crust gets a little burnt, but that's okay. The reset of the menu included salads, sandwiches, and steaks, along with appetizers.
There were plenty of bartenders and hostesses present when I arrived (about 4PM on a Saturday), maybe preparing for the evening rush. The place wasn't packed yet, but the bar was almost full, then thinned out a lot, then started to fill up again as it got closer to weekend dinner hour.
Overall, I'm certainly impressed with the place. It has plenty of the good beers, not the most, but still a good collection. I would say this is more of your typical upscale bar than a beer restaurant since the employees didn't seem to care about what was available, even calling them "crazy" beers, but who cares? People can come in for their good food, array of mixed drinks and wine, and we can come in for our beer. If RFD is packed, maybe try this place (the food is much better). Recommended.

Ate dinner here on vacation in DC. They had several different beers on tap that I cannot usually find around my home (in Ohio), including Brooklyn-Weisse and of all things PBR Tallboy. The restaurant itself is in a young energetic neighborhood, Capitol Hill. It used to be an old storage building for vending machines, and the owners have transformed it into an interesting three level space. The service was GREAT, seriously great. Attentive but not annoying, never had to ask for anything, they were very perceptive. We got wood fired pizza which was fantastic, thin crust and perfect amount of toppings to sauce to crust. The desserts are tasty too. The menu is creative but not pretentious so you have to ask what anything is. It's just good, simple food for a good price (in DC). Mini burgers, pizzas, sandwiches, and lots of interesting drinks. We may even go back there again this week while we are on vacation.

Baltic amber
|Baltic amber is fossil resin produced by pine trees, which grew in Northern Europe - from southern regions of the present day Scandinavia and nearby regions of the bed of the Baltic Sea. The climate became warmer and conifer trees started to exude big amounts of resin. Scientists say that amber is a fossil pine resin from this region that has achieved a stable state through oxidation. The word amber meant only one thing � the Baltic Amber. However, the process of how amber is formed traced more amber varieties in different parts of the world. Although more than 125 types of fossil resins are known in the world, these resins are not amber but its relatives. They are mostly found in Europe and America and each of them has its own name. But the Baltic amber is uniquely known for its quality and is most sought after.

Like the CGI monster-filled remake of How Green Was My Valley, STL Cinemas combine state-of-the-art technology with classic Hollywood aesthetics. Mainstream blockbusters and independent films happily rub silver-screen shoulders on each theater's marquee, while the retro lounges and concession stands serve enough beer, wine, and classy sweets to keep movie-goers sugar-buzzing—or just plain buzzing—through any double-feature. Voted Readers' Pick Movie Theatre by St. Louis Magazine readers, the Moolah Theatre's single screen is one of the biggest in town, and cinephiles can take their pick of 400 stadium seats, plush leather couches, or balcony seating. Chase Park Plaza Cinemas—nestled inside the Chase Park Plaza Hotel building—boasts five auditoriums with luxury seating. Granite City Cinemas is brand-new with all digital projection. And exposed beams and stage lighting add a vintage touch to Galleria 6's lobby, while its bar provides a lovely backdrop for post-film discussions, screenplay pitches, or outbursts of hard-boiled dialogue and artfully lit cigarette smoke.
Skyview Drive-In Theater, opened in 1949, has weathered the ravages of multiple tornados, enduring as a two-screen throwback to old-school cinema. When the sun sets, the twin screens display double features of recent Hollywood releases in clear digital format, while FM radio simulcasts the soundtracks. The viewing area—organized so taller cars never cut off smaller cars' sightlines—borders a playground for youngsters and a concession stand with classic movie snacks. Celebrating its roots, the theater occasionally hosts classic car (defined as 1987 or older) night where the driver is admitted free. For first-timers, Skyview Drive-In offers thorough responses to FAQs.
Ten-pin-toppling traditionalists, from hippie-noir detectives to the Amish, will love today's deal: $20 worth of bowling, pool, food, and drinks at either Moolah Lanes or Saratoga Lanes for $10. If you bring three friends or more, you can combine two Groupons for $40 of value, but you'll have to use it all up in one visit, so find out who has a dental cleaning coming up.Follow @Groupon_Says on Twitter.

Austin Bluffs Bridge Widening at Cottonwood Creek
Project Description:
The goal of the project is to design and widen the existing Austin Bluffs Bridge over Cottonwood Creek (approximately 250 feet north of Woodmen Road) in order to enhance the north/south connectivity between residential and commercial activity centers. The bridge was originally built for a future planned expansion of the roadway. The volumes across the bridge now dictate widening of the bridge to reduce the stacking of vehicles at the traffic signal at Austin Bluffs Parkway/Woodmen Road, thereby improving emergency response time and progression of vehicles through the corridor. Cottonwood Creek under the bridge, as well as connectivity of the trail system, will be improved.
Project Exhibit
Project Funding:
The total project budget is $3,983,836.
Project Schedule:
Design services were awarded to Wilson & Company, Inc., Engineers and Architects in July 2012. Construction is anticipated to begin in 2014.
Public Open House:
October 30, 2012, 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m., Jenkins Middle School. Link to exhibits displayed at the open house.
Project Contacts: Mike Chaves (City Engineering, 385-5401), Scott Barnhart (PPRTA Project Manager, 385-5416), and Clyde Pikkaraine (PPRTA Project Manager, 385-5464)

Maurice Jones-Drew reports to the Jaguars
Aaron Wilson
Posted Sep 2, 2012
Jacksonville Jaguars star running back Maurice Jones-Drew has ended his holdout, reporting for work today. Drew had missed the entire preseason and offseason due to displeasure with a contract that has two remaining years. He held out for 38 days. Now, the Jaguars have removed Jones-Drew from the reserve/did not report list.
"It was nothing to be gained," Jones-Drew told Jacksonville reporters today during a press conference. "It was simply a dispute over money at the end of the day. There was no win or loss, it was my production speaks for itself, and that's how I felt and that's how I still feel.
"It is behind me. For me, it's more just I'm back with my teammates playing football again, the game I love and just ready to get back with them. I saw a bunch of them today. Talked with a bunch of them last night and can't wait to get back and get going."
"It's great to have Maurice back in the building," general manager Gene Smith said in a statement. "He has been a valuable part of this organization, and his presence in the locker room and on the field will make those around him better. We're glad to now have everyone in and working as a team to win football games."
Added coach Mike Mularkey: "I had a really good visit this morning with Maurice and I welcomed him in. It was good to finally speak face-to-face. I can tell he's ready to go, so we'll be working with him to get him up to speed as quickly as possible. It's great to be able to proceed with our preparation for the opener and the season beyond with Maurice as part of the plans."
The Jaguars have the right under the NFL collective bargaining agreement to fine him $30,000 for each day of camp missed
He can be fined up to $1.2 million, $30,000 for each day he missed of training camp.
"I'm in a good place," Jones-Drew said. "I did something I felt was right, and I'm always going to feel right. I'm not going to feel wrong for what I did it at all. And that's why I can come back and not have a negative attitude.
After reporting today, Jones-Drew made it clear that he won't be addressing his contract going forward.
"This is the last talk about the whole contract situation," Jones-Drew said. "We're going to more forward to football after this." Jaguars owner Shad Khan had made it clear the team won't renegotiate Jones-Drew's $31 million deal inked three years ago.
Jones-Drew has already been paid $21.85 million, but is due $4.45 million this year and $4.95 million next year.
"It really wasn't about budging,'' Jones-Drew said. "For me, it got to the point where I wasn't going to be traded. Obviously, they weren't going to pay me. I could have easily sat out until Week 10, come back and been a distraction. It wasn't about that. I'm not going to come back and distract guys from playing the game the right way." As for his contract situation, Jones-Drew said he knew it was an uphill fight.
"I knew it was going to be a difficult situation," Jones-Drew said. "I had two years left. But the way I was raised, the way I grew up, is if you believe something you fight for it. You fight for whatever you believe. My production stated something. I fought for it, plain and simple.
"Yes, it went into a holdout and all these different things. At the end of the day, that's what it was about: my production and my value. I haven't stopped fighting. I'm going to come out and play."
When asked about his status going forward, Jones-Drew replied: "We're over it. It's solved for the time being and we're ready to move on."
Jones-Drew led the NFL in rushing last season with 1,606 yards.
When Khan famously said that Jones-Drew skipping camp didn't faze him and added, "The train's leaving the station. Run, get on it," it upset the star runner.
''I was disappointed about the comments,'' Jones-Drew said. ''I expect you guys or people outside the organization to make those comments like that. But when you do get it inside the organization, with how hard we work, with the time you put in through the offseason, the time you spend away from your family here at the facility, you expect a little more appreciation.''
Today, though, Khan was enthusiastic about Jones-Drew's return.
''The Jaguars are a better football team today than we were yesterday, and now our entire franchise can move forward together and as one,'' Khan said in a statement. ''Nothing more needs to be said."
Jones-Drew emphasized that he's ready for the first game, but his role hasn't been determined yet.
"I think I'm game ready now, but once again I have to understand the terminology, the playbook," he said. "I didn't have the camp playbook, but I got the gist of a lot of things. It's really just getting used to the terminology, going out there with practice and just repetition with it and being ready to play."

Any chance for a begginer to create a professional website ?
I have no experience at all - zero- on web design - web creating. Registering Adobe Dreameaver will enable me to create myself a professional website ? I need a website similar to bwin.com in design but it is not a betting site . Latest web site design/ support chat/ forum section/ members acces / paypal/ card/payments.
I wonder how much time it takes to learn it.. instead of paying 1000euro - the price a webdesigner asked for the job..
thank you
Will probably take you a couple of years to learn what you need (wild guess).
The quote you got is very, very cheap if they're really offering you a website to compare with bwin.com.
1000 Euros is a bargain!!
When you need a plumber or electrician you hire an experienced professional, not some amateur whose never done this before, right?. Well, the same goes for web development.
Unless you can devote 30-40 hours per week for 6-12 months learning everything you need to know about HTML, CSS, JavaScript, server-side programming, databases and web security, you have zero chance of doing all this on your own. Owning Dreamweaver doesn't make you an instant web developer any more than owning a digital camera makes you a professional photographer. It's not the tools, it's the person using them. The more skills you bring to the table, the more success you'll have.
That said, there are some good frameworks out there that might help you get the job done faster. But you still need good coding skills and very good grasp of how the web works.
Are you up for that?
Nancy O.
In my company, to recreate something similar to bwin.com in terms of design and to include the functionalities you've asked for, I'd probably be charging anywhere between 1,800 - 3,000 euros.
My recommendation - Go ahead with the 'web designer' who quoted 1,000 euros for this project!

The real question is whether someone who quotes 1,000 euros for such a job has the skill to deliver.
>The real question is whether someone who quotes 1,000
>euros for such a job has the skill to deliver.
Exactly. The OP needs to get several bids and request portfolios and urls' of similar sites they have developed. In fact, it might be helpful for us to look at some examples from the developer they already got a bid from.
I really expected David Powers to give me some hope in selflearning directions as I read the ''Creating your first website'' . If he rather debate the price subject..the situation looks in one direction only which is to buy the website.
Abaut the price - As I live in Romania where medium net income its around 265euro/month I think the price its abaut right. In your country 1800euro may be a single month income.
Abaut comparing web developing with plumber, electrician or photographer, I hope it wasn't a real comparison but more like to make a point, because those jobs looks much more easier to be learned/done.
It's like this. A coffee brewmaster who is extremely good at what he does cannot pick up web designing unless he dedicates time to it. Likewise, we cannot brew a nice cup of coffee the way he does.
What's easy for others is not necessarily easy for us. We all take time to learn and specialize in our field of interest/ career.
'Dedication' is the keyword. That's what sets apart a 'just a web designer' with a 'the web designer'.

On that basis, the price represents about four months' work. You could certainly learn a lot about web development in four months, but I doubt if you could learn enough to create a complex site of the same quality as bwin.com. I've taken a look at its source code. The style sheet is more than 2,000 lines of code, and there's a large number of external JavaScript files. It also has a user registration and login system, which means that it connects with a back-end database.
One of the attractions of web development is that the entry barrier is low. It's easy to get started. However, there's a long and steep learning curve if you want to get beyond the beginner stage. When I started developing websites nearly 20 years ago, the technology was simple. However, it has become increasingly complex. So much so that building a sophisticated website usually involves a team of people who specialize in different aspects of web development.
The comments that you have received aren't intended to put you off, but to introduce a realistic sense of perspective. If your intention is to become a web designer/developer, start learning about HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Be prepared to put in many hours of study and practice. Everyone is a beginner at some stage, so there's nothing to be ashamed of. But buying Dreamweaver doesn't wave a magic wand and turn you into a professional without a lot of effort on your part.
However, the real question is whether you want to become a web developer or whether you've got a business idea that needs a website. If it's the latter, concentrate on developing your business, and be prepared to pay a professional to build the website for you.
It took me 2 hours to learn all tutorial from here http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/first_website_pt2.htm l .
That's a good start. Now work on this.

Nancy O.
Thank you.
At this level I'am stuck with moving objects/tables/spry around the page. I can't believe its 2012 and I have to manually enter data on CSS to drag an objects exactly where I need it. One other problem that I have to work on its to make live/design to show the right position of the objects because on Preview they are right - this is really killing me because I cant work designing the site as I want when I see that mess, atleast I have quad screen setup and I can let one monitor to Preview the page in Chrome... I'am also ''fighting'' to connect dreamweaver database to WAMP in order to make the login form work .
I'm amazed at the prices being talked about here but I guess it's where you are located in the World. It's unlikely that anyone in the UK can create that site for under 5k-6k given the design and server langauge required. Perhaps even more!
I am stuck with moving objects/tables/spry around the page.
Sorry but DW is not a drag & drop application like Photoshop. Owing to all the different browsers and web devices these days, there is no such thing as perfect WYSIWYG in Design View. Use Split View with Live View. That way you can see a valid representation of your page in one panel while you edit code in the other.
Being able to work with code is essential. There's no way around it, especially for a project this advanced.
I am also ''fighting'' to connect dreamweaver database to WAMP in order to make the login form work .
Is Wamp server online?
Did you start all services?
By any chance, do you have Skype installed on your computer?
Skype reserves port 80 for its incoming connection which conflicts with WAMP, so simply configure Skype to use another port:
Open Skype, go to Tools|Options|Advanced|Connection uncheck the option --> Use port 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections, that's it.
Close Skype. Restart Skype and Restart all services on WAMP by doing the following:
Left-click WAMP tray icon > Restart All Services"
Now Wamp and Skype can co-exist without conflict.
Nancy O.
Thank you Nancy O. No Skype here.
After speaking with several web designer about my needs, they recommend me wordpress as its much more easy to update it daily and the same to build it. What do you think ? Actually I found it one template that is really nice, I need to add forum and payment options , html version its 80$, while wordpress theme version (for exact the same product) its 200$. I dont know which one to chose.

Go for it and try Wordpress. You can't lose and you'll learn a lot.
It's not an all-or-nothing decision. If you don't like it you can always try something else later.

Which Wordpress theme exactly? Got a link?
I don't know of any premium Wordpress themes over $50 and I have dozens of them.
If it has a forum, e-commerce module and other functions built-in, it might cost more. But yeah, WordPress is infinitely easier than re-inventing the wheel.
The Theme is what you're paying for. It shapes the layout, appearance and site functionality. What your theme lacks in functionality can sometimes be added with plug-ins -- although not all plug-ins work with all Themes. So I like to find a Theme that has all the bells & whistles I'll need built-in.
The WordPress core files are free to download and install on your server.
But before you do, ask your host about WordPress as many have services such as Fantasitco that can install WordPress for you with the press of a button. Much easier than doing it yourself.
Nancy O.
John, this is the theme http://www.templatemonster.com/demo/39730.html . I have spoke with the producer and can be made wordpress for the mentioned price. Do you have a dozens of themes ? Can you share some with related with sport or similar with this one ?
thank you
Nancy O.
My server supports well wordpress ,I already test it some free themes and works just fine.
ps. I dont know why but Wordpress looks much worst compare with html especailly those with flash.
What is the real difference when someone buys a html version compare with a WordPress version ? I dont find it so hard to edit Html with Dreamweaver, atleast at first look..
Hello again,
I think I know what I have to do, in fact I already start it the job myself. I create the main website html with all the important informations, than a subdirector with wordress site to which will be redirect html links only for payments (only 2 services at sell ) and forum.
Now I need some help with index pages. I have all the index pages available but the text content of the menus and some other areas I need it to be in my native language/sense. Actually the text is in english. I have changed the whole main index page but I'am left with other 10. However I have around 30 texts on each index page that I have to change it as index.html . The only way its manualy do it on each one with copy/paste ? I dont have any other faster way ?
thank you

I didn't want to use iTunes because I'd have to add the sounds/voicemails to the library which is just a waste (IMHO).It's also fully interruptable (so you can stop it playing at any point): I'm not using that functionality currently, but probably will at some point.If you don't use the answering machine functionality and you have turned off the alert sound (PhoneValet_shouldPlaySoundAlert set to "false") then it shouldn't have to be present.jay

2013 Mazda CX-5 long-term review
We break in our Mazda CX-5 with form and function
We've done a lot of bad things things to our long-term fleet over the years. The list is lengthy and sordid, and some incidents were not our fault. But our Mazda CX-5 has set a record—for fastest accident in recent memory.
No, that's not speed measured in miles per hour; we were actually sitting at a stoplight. Rather, this Mazda was maimed a mere 16 hours into its stay at One Autoweek Tower.
Sixteen hours! That's a typical workday around here. And, for the record, the accident was not our fault: A Ford Focus hit a Pontiac G8 that then rear-ended us. Luckily, the body shop repaired our star-crossed crossover in a matter of two days.
We then moved on to warm-weather road trips and around-town chores, including treks to the heartland of Iowa and scenic northern Michigan resort areas. And the miles piled up -- 11,795.3 of 'em to be exact -- in our first three months. Even more impressive, we averaged 28.1 mpg, not bad for a staff of drivers with lead feet.
While efficient, the powertrain also proved to be the most controversial element of the CX-5. The Skyactiv suite of technologies means this 2.0-liter inline four-cylinder is fortified with direct injection and variable-valve timing, though total output is a modest 155 hp. That takes some brain recalibration, as this is a good-sized, all-wheel-drive machine, and there is an expectation of some grunt.
One editor lamented: "I think Mazda left out one of the zooms in this vehicle's 'zoom-zoom.' The four-cylinder is anemic. The automatic trans wants always to be in the highest gear possible, and when it has to downshift, it jumps down several gears, making the little engine scream in mercy."
Other descriptions of the six-speed gearbox included "aggressive," "frantic" and "weird"—reactions more common for an awkward first date than a transmission.
That's clearly a flaw, but hardly a fatal one. Our staff loved its capability and appearance. It happily swallowed up passengers of all sizes, dogs, camping and sporting equipment, and nearly everything we could throw at (or in) it. The CX-5 definitely has style, too. There are elegant curves, sharp headlights and a prominent grille—and the package is topped off with a striking coat of white paint.
One editor even ranks it near the top of the latest crop of crossovers: "This is, in my opinion, one of the two best small SUVs available, the other being the new Ford Escape with the 1.6-liter turbo. People who hate SUVs should drive this. It might change their mind."
2013 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring
As-tested price: $29,090
Miles driven: 11,795.3
Fuel economy: 28.1 mpg
Fuel cost: $1,584.49
Days out of service: Two
Maintenance: Replace rear bumper cover ($977.19); 5,000-mile service, including oil change, tire rotation, general inspection ($53.42)

The Tess House is a house inspired by a writer who has been dreaming about building his writers house on Shelter Island for sometime now. At 1645 square feet this one story, 3 bedroom really just works. It's open and comfortable floor plan allows for ultimate relaxation and creativity with the office/den right next to the master bedroom which makes capturing those middle of night "light bulb moments" a breeze.

Wales coach Warren Gatland's Six Nations squad to be named on Tuesday is set to feature a number of currently injured players.
Wales are seeking an historic championship title hat-trick but Gatland is likely to have several injury-related selection headaches ahead of their first game against Italy on February 1.
Top of the list of injury concerns is captain Sam Warburton, who has not played since the November Tests due to a shoulder problem and is on a tight deadline to be fit in time for the opening game.
Cardiff Blues prop Gethin Jenkins is also doubtful after suffering a leg injury in Saturday's Heineken Cup loss to Toulon.
Centre Jonathan Davies will miss at least the first three games due to a pectoral injury sustained in November while fly-half Rhys Patchell will be absent after undergoing shoulder surgery which will rule him out for several months.
Good news, however, for Welsh fans is that Racing Metro centre Jamie Roberts is set to return from an ankle injury this weekend while Dragons forward Andrew Coombs should also be fit despite suffering a broken nose this weekend.

Today, 146 leading economists - including five recipients of the Nobel Prize for Economics - sent a letter to Congress calling for the quick passage of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.
From the letter:
The United States is in a recession that threatens to be deep and protracted. Each month, employers are shedding hundreds of thousands of jobs. To stop the hemorrhaging of jobs and pull the economy back from the edge, policymakers must act quickly and decisively. A critical needed action is significant fiscal stimulus specifically designed to boost employment and economic growth.
To this end, Congress and the new administration have put together an economic recovery plan of unprecedented scope and size. The $825 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 is of the scale and breadth necessary to begin tackling the mounting problems faced by our economy. The plan proposes important investments that can start to overcome the nation's damaging loss of jobs by saving or creating millions of jobs and put the United States back onto a sustainable long-term growth path.
We do not have the luxury of a lengthy debate over the best course of action. This legislation may not be enough to solve all the economy's problems, but it is urgently needed and an important step in the right direction.
Tomorrow, the House will vote on the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, working from priorities shared with President Barack Obama.
A staggering 2.6 million American jobs were lost in the last year of the Bush Administration -- the culmination of a failed economic approach -- one that also doubled our national debt in eight short years. We need a New Direction.
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act will:
- create and save 3 to 4 million jobs, rebuilding America, making us more globally competitive and energy independent, and transforming our economy for long-term growth.
- give 95 percent of Americans an immediate tax cut.
- invest quickly into the economy
The Recovery Plan has unprecedented accountability measures built in--providing strong oversight, an historic degree of public transparency, and including no earmarks.

Feta-Topped Chicken With Dill-Tomato Sauce
This dish is a Greek-style twist on Chicken Parmesan. The tomato-dill sauce is lighter than a classic Italian red sauce and a bit of lemon juice adds a fresh note that works well with the salty flavor of the feta cheese. Served with a side of orzo and sauteed fresh spinach, this dinner comes together in just about 45 minutes.
- Ingredients:
- 3/4 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
- Salt and freshly ground pepper
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped onion
- 1 cup chopped tomatoes, with juice
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 to 2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped (see notes)
- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
Preheat the oven to 425°F.
Pound the chicken breasts to an even 1/2-inch thickness. Brush both sides with 1 tablespoon of the extra-virgin olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for about 3 minutes per side until lightly browned and no longer pink in the middle. Transfer to a baking dish and set aside.
Lower the heat on the pan to medium and add the butter. Add the garlic and onion and sauté until fragrant and soft. Add the tomatoes, salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Cook for about 6 to 8 minutes, or until the sauce starts to thicken slightly. Taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary (bear in mind that the feta cheese will add a bit of overall saltiness to the dish, so be conservative in salting the sauce). Remove from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and dill.
Top the chicken breasts, first with the sauce, then with the feta. Place in the oven for 5 minutes, or until the cheese is heated through and slightly melted. Garnish with sprigs of dill. Serve immediately.
Makes 2 servings, can easily be doubled.
Recipe Notes:
The amount of dill you use in this recipe really depends on how much you enjoy the strong flavor of the herb. If you're not sure, it's best to use the smaller quantity and sprinkle a little additional over the top at the table if desired.

If you have yet to check out the reviews of our Dobber Hockey Experts draft, I highly recommend you do so. There are some really interesting perspectives and insights on how managers draft their teams, as well as what they look for. The event was a three hour slugfest that felt more like a late 1980's wrestling Battle Royal than a hockey draft. By the end of it I knew more about depth players like Deryk Engelland, Cam Atkinson, and Gustav Nyquist than I ever cared to.
When it was all said and done I had even broken my cardinal rule of taking anyone from the Columbus Blue Jackets. Typically my fear is that their lacklusterness will spread throughout the rest of my roster like a brush fire, but I suppose Ryan Johansen's center and right wing eligibility could come in handy.
That's actually the great thing about fantasy sports; even players from weaker teams have relevance. Perhaps there is no greater evidence of this than the Edmonton Oilers. The Oilers have several players that could be fantasy studs in 2012-13, and a few that already are. With a horrible defensive squad, the Oilers are going to need to win games 4-3 and 5-4 on regular basis to hope to have a shot at the playoffs. While that may mean good news for Edmonton skaters, Nikolai Khabibulin and Devan Dubnyk could be in for a long season. It's almost like in fantasy football when you take a quarterback on a bad team because you know they will often be playing from behind, and ultimately throwing the ball an absurd amount of times. That's kind of how I picture the Oilers. Instead of trying to improve the defense, let's just stock up on even more offense and just outscore everyone.
Could you imagine being Oklahoma City Barons owner Bob Funk, Jr. right now? The guy must feel like Jed Clampett and that he actually did strike Oil. With all that young Oiler talent playing for OKC because of the work stoppage, I bet Funk hopes the lockout goes on for another ten years.
Let's have a look at a few Oiler skaters and their expectations for the upcoming campaign.
Perhaps a forgotten talent on this high powered roster, Whitney has really battled injuries in recent years. When healthy he can be a real offensive force and a power play specialist from the back end. In just 51 games last year he managed ten points with the man advantage and added a solid 85 blocked shots as well. If he can play a full season with this group it's not unreasonable for Whitney to hit 50 points.
Schultz may benefit the most from spending some time in Oklahoma City. Although a high scoring defenseman from the University of Wisconsin, his inexperience and lack of bulk could really get exposed defensively at the NHL level. Expect him to play on a lower pairing and get some power play opportunities. His development may follow a similar path to that of Cam Fowler from the Anaheim Ducks in that he has too much offensive upside to keep out of the lineup, but his plus/minus could end up resembling the temperature of a cold winter night.
Arguably the most proven of Oiler forwards, Eberle had an outstanding 2011-12 and in the process helped me to a fantasy hockey championship. But I digress. A 76 point campaign even though he was missing many other Edmonton forwards for long stretches due to injuries, really made a statement. He is easily the teams most consistent forward as he recorded points in nearly 62% of his games, had 21 multi-point games, and had a stretch last year where he had points in 16 of 18 games. No reason to think he can't even exceed that a little with a healthier supporting cast in 2012-13.
It would have been interesting to see what RNH could have with a full campaign in 2011-12. Injuries limited him to just 62 games, where he recorded 52 points. Had he played the full 82 there would have been a strong chance he could have won the Calder. The most encouraging thing about his production is that nearly half his points came on the power play and he racked up a whopping 134 shots. It may be wise, however, to be cautious of a sophomore slump and not count on his production to skyrocket, but has the tools to get to 70 points sooner rather than later.
Maybe the most physically gifted of all the young Oilers talent, Hall has fought through his own share of injuries which has limited his production. Hall's points per game were second on the team at .97 and it only took him 61 games last year to lead the team in shots with 207. Over 82 games he easily would have been in the top 10 in the entire NHL. Hall has a great chance to lead the team in scoring if he can get a full season from start to finish under his belt.
A little more two-way minded then the rest of the Oilers core, Paajarvi could get a shot on Edmonton's second line in 2012-13. While he may not have the offensive skill that the other forwards have, his speed is a great asset and he should be capable to get around 20-25 goals. Hey, it would be tough not to playing in that top six.
Gagner had 47 points in 2011-12, including eight in one game that counted for over 17% of his production. That magical game against the Chicago Blackhawks may have caused Yahoo to nearly crash because of all the waiver claims being sent in, but Gagner has really never been all that consistent. He is a streaky player that can go long stretches without points and should be looked at as a depth guy for your squad. If he gets 50 points then you made out well.
Yakupov is a wild card on this Oilers squad. We have yet to see him in NHL action, but if his production in junior is any indication, then he is certainly worth a risk. He posted 170 points in only 107 games with the Sarnia Sting of the Ontario Hockey League. Now obviously don't expect those kinds of numbers at the next level, at least not right away, but it is conceivable that Yakupov could hit 60 points in the right situation. And maybe rookie of the year honors while he's at it.

Defense Acquisitions:
Missile Defense Agency's Flexibility Reduces Transparency of Program Cost
GAO-07-799T: Published: Apr 30, 2007. Publicly Released: Apr 30, 2007.
Additional Materials:
- Highlights Page:

(202) 512-2811
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Over the next 5 years the Missile Defense Agency (MDA) expects to invest $49 billion in the Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) system's development and fielding. MDA's strategy is to field new capabilities in 2-year blocks. In January 2006, MDA initiated its second block--Block 2006--to protect against attacks from North Korea and the Middle East. Congress requires GAO to assess MDA's progress annually. GAO's March 2007 report addressed MDA's progress during fiscal year 2006 and followed up on program oversight issues and the current status of MDA's quality assurance program. GAO assessed the progress of each element being developed by MDA, examined acquisition laws applicable to major acquisition programs, and reviewed the impact of implemented quality initiatives.
During fiscal year 2006, MDA fielded additional assets for the Ballistic Missile Defense System (BMDS), enhanced the capability of some assets, and realized several noteworthy testing achievements. For example, the Ground-based Midcourse Defense (GMD) element successfully conducted its first end-to-end test of one engagement scenario, the element's first successful intercept test since 2002. However, MDA will not meet its original Block 2006 cost, fielding, or performance goals because the agency has revised those goals. In March 2006, MDA: reduced its goal for fielded assets to provide funds for technical problems and new and increased operations and sustainment requirements; increased its cost goal by about $1 billion--from $19.3 to $20.3 billion; and reduced its performance goal commensurate with the reduction of assets. MDA may also reduce the scope of the block further by deferring other work until a future block because four elements incurred about $478 million in fiscal year 2006 budget overruns. With the possible exception of GMD interceptors, MDA is generally on track to meet its revised quantity goals. But the deferral of work, both into and out of Block 2006, and inconsistent reporting of costs by some BMDS elements, makes the actual cost of Block 2006 difficult to determine. In addition, GAO cannot assess whether the block will meet its revised performance goals until MDA's models and simulations are anchored by sufficient flight tests to have confidence that predictions of performance are reliable. Because MDA has not formally entered the Department of Defense (DOD) acquisition cycle, it is not yet required to apply certain laws intended to hold major defense acquisition programs accountable for their planned outcomes and cost, give decision makers a means to conduct oversight, and ensure some level of independent program review. MDA is more agile in its decision-making because it does not have to wait for outside reviews or obtain higher-level approvals of its goals or changes to those goals. Because MDA can revise its baseline, it has the ability to field fewer assets than planned, defer work to a future block, and increase planned cost. All of this makes it hard to reconcile cost and outcomes against original goals and to determine the value of the work accomplished. Also, using research and development funds to purchase operational assets allows costs to be spread over 2 or more years, which makes costs harder to track and commits future budgets. MDA continues to identify quality assurance weaknesses, but the agency's corrective measures are beginning to produce results. Quality deficiencies are declining as MDA implements corrective actions, such as a teaming approach designed to restore the reliability of key suppliers.

peewit home
Welcome to the Homepage of Peewit.
Intropeewit is a framework for running machine learning experiments that does not provide any productive parts. It assumes a certain uniformity in the relations of experimental components but is otherwise rather universal.
The goal of peewit is to support experimental housekeeping. The user explicitly decomposes the experiment into components such that the machine to some extend gets grip on the experimental structure. One way to play thereon is by prolonged life-time of names: if the user give names to things, these names are applicable throughout different phases of a project. Another profit is comfortable parallelization of concurrent sub-experiments.
For further reading on the concept, the experiment model, and concrete services, you may read this paper. The easiest access to the concept is trough the example experiments that are shipped with the prototype.
PrototypeThe python implementation (link below) is sufficiently developed to illustrate the approach but still has deficiencies. It lacks sound documentation and it weakly tested. You can get an impression on how peewit is used simply by reading the examples modules included in the download.
peewit 0.9.5 (zipped tar-file)
The download contains the following six directories: example_data_sets/, example_project/, example_user_packages/, python/, stuff/, and unittests/. The implementation of the framework is included in the directory python/.
Please read peewit/doc/readme.txt more information on the distribution and for instructions on making the examples run. peewit depends on python-3 and on numpy. For full functionality you further have to provide unison, ssh, git, and matplotlib 1.20 as well as libsvm for the example project.
Road-MapPlans for 0.9.x
- rewrite tex-raw-table output
- confs as conf-files
Version History2014-3-21, changes in 0.9.5
- bugfix aggregation: change labels on aggregator-dim only
- do not peel (singleton) cubes from s-ancestores or t-successors, rather use get_value(s)
- more readable error for failed vcube-read
- bugfix build_plots
- bugfix partially_permute
- order contraint in vcube-chain drob
- bugfix baseclass: call ancestore init iff no of positional args fits
- ported to python-3
- core rewrite, dropped features:
- parent experiments
- multi-dim descent values
- descent values from v-cubes
- sibling-values in proper object instead of dict
- semi-unform v-cube: number of descent values may depend on ancestor values
- run-number on result representations
- private repo-dirs for run-commits

Improvement … you have a choice
Personal Development & Improvement – October 31, 2008
How we get these Future News Predictions
Find out how these predictions will affect you
Many people want to improve, but don't know where to start. You start with what you believe. Your beliefs are the building blocks of the life you create. Beliefs are nothing more than concepts or assumptions. Where do these assumptions come from? They have come from your past, from family, or your friends and also from society and the media. An example of a belief or concept is 'change'. Barack Obama took the belief or concept of 'change' and mass marketed it in order to associate that concept or belief with him. Doing this he was able to move mass consciousness. John McCain did not come up with or associate himself with a belief or concept, so the public assigned one to him. It was the opposite of 'change' or 'more of the same'. The purpose of a belief or a concept is to provide experience. Without experience the belief or concept never becomes part of your life. We gave you this example before.Continue reading »
