Cap Hill bloggers to throw $10,000 party resurrecting legendary Pine

The duo behind Capitol Hill hipster blog cap to the hill have won the $10,000 Party contest. And you haven't.

Of course, you probably didn't know about the $10,000 Party contest and Capitol Hill advertising agency Creature wasn't thinking about you when they cooked up this for a JanSport marketing scheme:

Do you like throwing parties? Are you really good at it and do your friends count on you to always throw the best ones? Then we want to fund your next one-of-kind party experience.
Carly Ryan and Cole Gainer, on the other hand, knew exactly what to do with the opportunity:

Their vision for the party was a winner. Now Ryan and Gainer are working to pull the event together in a month -- their target date: Thursday, August 20.

We asked Ryan a few questions in an e-mail about the project:

You've put out a call for help and involvement from others in the community. What are you hoping people will step forward to contribute?
We are really trying to recreate the old pine strip of bars so anyone who has anything from the bars, worked at the bars/stores or knows how to get in contact with anybody who did. We are toying with the idea that cap hill businesses sponsoring certain booths, donating goods, labor, etc....but they would get all the profit they made. I could get more specific in a few days but we are just wondering who out there would like to be involved. We are primarily talking about people who can contribute something substantial....and that doesn't necessarily mean financially. bottom line is that to make this a great, safe party we need to spend our money on fencing, security and other means beyond "fun stuff."

What about yourself and your site. You've run captothehill for a while now. What are you hoping to get out of the experience? Besides that cool Jansport backpack...
More than anything, we just want to throw a party that celebrates the hill. It all means something different to us and coming together to celebrate whatever that may mean is the point. I guess, to acknowledge the spirit that still exists.
Capitol Hill has had a few legendary festivities. Where will this one rank in the history of Capitol Hill parties?
We aren't trying to make this anything beyond a good time that people can have fun at. This is not trying to bring back the 500 pine corridor, we could never really do that, but to celebrate what it is and pretty much be a tribute to a vibe it embodied.
Can you tell us where on the Hill the party will be held?
We are hoping to have the party in the peoples parking lot, the actual "burial" site of the old 500 pine block. we are working with the city to get permission. this is not official.
While it would be cool to see the space re-energized, getting permission to use the now-empty lot at the corner of Pine and Belmont where the fabled row of businesses once stood might be a challenge. Developer Murray Franklin owns the lot. Though it has not revealed its plans for the property, the company made the space available for the Capitol Hill Community Garage Sale Day this spring. Other groups have put the space to use without cooperation with the developer. Whether Murray Franklin would be open to hosting a $10,000 party in the gravel lot remains to be seen.

Want to throw your own Capitol Hill block party? You have until next Friday to register for a National Night Out party on August 4. Sorry. No $10,000 for you, however.

So awesome!
this is quite possibly the coolest thing ever! I really hope that they construct something semi-permanent so we can enjoy it after the party as well.

Sounds fun...
...but I hope the organizers take the time to include the neighbors when they plan this (or at least warn them!)...since they will be most impacted, and wouldn't want a repeat of the last party in that park.

pharmacy assistance 24 7 phentermine The drugs listed in t2 Table II] assumes that the interacting drug is being added to a steady-state theophylline regimen. If theophylline is being initiated in a patient who is already taking a drug that inhibits theophylline clearance (e.g., cimetidine, erythromycin), the dose of theophylline required to achieve a therapeutic serum theophylline concentration will be smaller. Conversely, if theophylline is being initiated in a patient who is already taking a drug that enhances theophylline clearance (e.g., rifampin), the dose of theophylline required to achieve a therapeutic serum theophylline concentration will be larger. Discontinuation of a concomitant drug that increases theophylline clearance will result in accumulation of theophylline to potentially toxic levels, unless the theophylline dose is appropriately reduced. Discontinuation of a concomitant drug that inhibits theophylline clearance will result in decreased serum theophylline concentrations, unless the theophylline dose is appropriately increased.

rxlist tropical pharmacy phentermine Identity confusion is a sense of confusion about who a person is. An example of identity confusion is when a person sometimes feels a thrill while engaged in an activity (e.g., reckless driving, drug use) which at other times would be repugnant. Identity alteration is the sense of being markedly different from another part of oneself. This can be unnerving to the individual and to the people around him or her. In addition to these observable changes, an individual may experience distortions in time, place, and situation. For example, someone with identity alteration may suddenly feel five years old, think they are in their childhood home and expect a deceased person whom they fear to appear at any moment (e.g., Fine, 1999; Maldonado et al., 2002; Spiegel & Cardeña, 1991; Steinberg, 1995).

No evidence exists, however, that it actually slows the progression of cell death that is associated with the disease. Clinical trials that test the effectiveness of memantine use surveys and questionnaires that score improvements using numbers. This method of assessment has been criticized because an improvement in scores on a survey do not necessarily mean the patient will show improved mental and physical function. Indeed, often the scores only improve slightly and no change may be seen in the patient.

anxiety depression compare vuagra cialis Ondansetron is a selective 5-HT3 receptor antagonist. While its mechanism of action has not been fully characterized, ondansetron is not a dopamine-receptor antagonist. Serotonin receptors of the 5-HT3 type are present both peripherally on vagal nerve terminals and centrally in the chemoreceptor trigger zone of the area postrema. It is not certain whether ondansetron's antiemetic action is mediated centrally, peripherally, or in both sites. However, cytotoxic chemotherapy appears to be associated with release of serotonin from the enterochromaffin cells of the small intestine. In humans, urinary 5-HIAA (5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid) excretion increases after cisplatin administration in parallel with the onset of emesis. The released serotonin may stimulate the vagal afferents through the 5-HT3 receptors and initiate the vomiting reflex.
