As our fast-paced society continues to expand, we are inundated with new technology. Web designers know how crucial it is to keep up with this technology so that you aren't left chasing the competition. Web trends come and go, but many leave their mark and continue to be used consistently over the years. We incorporate exciting new technology and tools along with tried-and-true methods to create a comprehensive site that will work for you.
The next time you take a walk outside, stroll through the mall, or wait to board your flight at an airport terminal, look around at the number of people who are using iPhones, Smart Phones, or similar devices. Many of these people are able to connect to the internet almost anywhere. Business owners who provide a mobile-ready website for these customers are profiting from crucial sales and traffic over those who don't. As the name suggests, a mobile-ready website is one that can be accessed with a phone or similar device.
If you don't have a mobile-ready website yet, you are not alone. The 2012 Mongoose Metrics Data Series found that roughly 90 percent of all websites are not mobile-ready. As more and more people rely on their phones to do their shopping and browsing online, having a website that can be readily accessed on a mobile device is crucial. We are excited to bring you the necessary tools, technology, and knowledge to create a mobile-ready website for your business that can bring in the traffic and customers you couldn't get before!
Whether you want to create a traditional website or a mobile-ready one, you need to have a responsive design. There are many websites that customers can go to, which is why we want to make yours stand out! A responsive web design is one that relies on easy and efficient reading and navigation to keep visitors satisfied, whether they are accessing the site from a computer, a phone, or a similar device.
This type of web design works by allowing the website layout to adapt to just about any viewing environment by using elements such as flexible images and grids that are fluid and proportion-based. A responsive web design represents an essential and fundamental shift in the way that websites will be designed in the future, and you can get a head start with us.

What does search engine optimization mean?
Search engines like Google and Bing are used by millions of people on a daily basis which means that for your website to be seen, and to get significant levels of traffic and the benefits that traffic brings, you need to be placed high up in the rankings within the search engines. SEO is a term used to describe the methods utilised to get your website into better positions and ranking higher within the search engines.

What's behind dairy producers' struggle with the extended period of low milk-to-feed ratios?
Dairy farmers have been struggling with low milk/feed ratios for a long time. In fact, the last time the ratio was above 2.0 was in March 2011. The ratio has been above 2.0 just 18 months out of the past 63 months. A level of 3.0 has historically been used as a profitability level wherein expansions will take place.
Interestingly, during this extended period of low milk/feed ratios, we have experienced record high milk prices. There have been periods of low milk prices in the past that have actually yielded the best milk/feed ratios due to correspondingly low feed prices. The idea of high milk prices does not necessarily mean more profitability. So then the question arises as to why higher prices push greater milk production and increasing cow numbers. According to the numbers, it does not seem to make sense. However, part of it has to do with psychology and some of it has to do with each individual operation.
Farmers always desire to produce more when prices are higher. It does not matter if it is corn, soybeans, wheat, cattle, hogs, etc. Those bigger paychecks always make one feel good. I realize that can only go on for so long, until income does not cover input for a period of time.
Those who raise quite a bit or all of their feed have been in a better position during this extended period of low ratios. Margins improve when a person is not at the mercy of the market. Quality feed can be harvested and stored for feed rather than having to pay for that quality. I do want to add that it is not always the case that those who purchase their feed are at the mercy of the market. Those who utilize the futures and options market to hedge feed purchases can achieve the same or similar results of those who raise their own feed.
Many farmers have had a real taste of this over the past year as drought conditions forced those who generally have their own feed into purchasing it. This really put a crimp on the income of many dairy producers. There were high hopes this year would be better and in some areas it is. Other areas have really been struggling with significant winterkill in alfalfa and the delayed planting of corn. In some areas, it looks like corn may not even be able to be planted. The impact of this is yet to be seen, but dairy farmers are resourceful and have always been able to find a way to squeeze the milk out of the cows efficiently.
This efficiency keeps cheese production strong. The latest USDA "Dairy Products" report showed total cheese production for the month of April at 3.2% above a year ago, with 928.2 million pounds produced. Of that total, American types increased 2.4% and Italian types rose 2.9%. Current strong production as well as strong production in previous months continues to push inventory levels higher. Seasonally, inventory will increase until June, and then it begins to decline as milk production and cheese yields decline. This continues through the end of the year. The current level of milk production and cheese production may extend this growth a bit longer unless demand increases greater than it has been or production declines in the next month or so.
Cheese and curd exports during the month of April increased 6% over the previous year, totaling 25,551 metric tons (mt). Whey exports were up 2.2%t to a total of 43,058mt. Strong exports are expected to continue the rest of this year but maybe not as strong as earlier anticipated when drought gripped New Zealand and Australia. Butter exports during the month of April fell 28.8% from a year ago, totaling 4,267mt. This is the same decline experienced in 2012 compared to 2011. Cooperatives Working Together has not assisted in the export of butter since April 29. It is not surprising butter stocks are growing at a rapid pace. The bright spot was that exports of nonfat dry milk for the month jumped 40.5% to 55,187mt.

Corn and soybeans closed lower while wheat held support. For the week May corn finished 9 ¼ cents higher, soybeans 14 ½ cents higher, and wheat 6 ¾ cents higher. USDA report will be on Thursday the 28th, no change to our current market outlook.
We wrapped up the volatile week with neutral Informa estimates and a slightly bullish Cattle on Feed report (for cattle not corn). Informa is projecting corn acres at 97.8 million, soybeans at 78.5 million, wheat at 56.1 million, and cotton at 10.4 million. The combined corn and soybean acre estimate is 2.3 million acres more than the current USDA estimate which we believe is in-line with where it should be.
Cattle-on-Feed was released at 2:00pm today and showed far less placed than expected. The market was expecting 91% and the report showed 86%. Typically this situation would be negative for corn price but over the last 3 weeks it has been more about large players getting a position in place before the report than it has been about demand changes. Corn open interest has jumped substantially in the last 7 trading days. The COT report shows that the "managed money" has increased their net long position by 57,864 contracts of corn and that's only through Tuesday! All the while we have seen a lot of feed demand switch to wheat and dismal corn exports. We were just in a long term negative trend for corn and if we don't see a supportive corn stocks number to keep the rally going I would be worried about further setbacks.
The average stocks estimate for corn is 4.995 compared to 6.023 last year, wheat 1.165 compared to 1.119 last year, and soybeans 0.948 compared to 1.374 last year.
No major changes to our market opinion which is wide-rangebound moves in old crop corn and soybeans and a long-term negative bias for new crop pricing based on overcompensated uncertainty risk premium.

In this period jewelry in Europe were usually made from metal, glass, seashells, coins, and gems. But don't think they were simple and not worthy. Some craftsmen were able to produce stunning silver and gold jewelry that could take your breath away. Archeologists have found some priceless pieces. But even ordinary decorations of wealthy women in the 9th-10th centuries were beautiful. Though, people didn't have much taste in using jewelry; they just put nice items on, whether they matched each other or not.
Here are some examples of jewelry used in the 9th-10th centuries in Europe and Asia. These are reconstructions, but very accurate ones. The first 3 of them were used in the Kievan Rus' (modern Ukraine), and the last one in Alania (modern Russia).

I've been writing and collecting stories, and they will be archived here indefinitely. I was too busy packing and moving, and then spending the past month on the west coast. I plan to update the site with all the content that is missing here, but there won't be anything new here.
New projects are coming soon. My next job and next radio show will both begin before the end of summer. Right this second, you can CLICK HERE to see the last ten articles I wrote for Raw Story in May.

Now that Fuji have dropped all their type 100 instant film line and there is no other source of peel-apart instant film, has anyone in the UK or EU got a Mamiya Universal Polaroid back they never expect to use again? I still have 3 packs of Polaroid B&W in the 'fridge and I'd like to use it on my Universal, but eBay prices are just plain ridiculous. Apart from using up any remaining stocks of Fuji 100 packs, they will soon all be worthless.
Nevertheless I'm in the market for one even if my packs have all dried out and don't produce a thing - it's worth a try, but the price has to be realistic.
Anyone have a redundant Mamiya Universal Polaroid back?

ToxFAQsTM for Naphthalene, 1-Methylnapthalene, 2-Methylnapthalene
(Naftalina, 1-Metilnaftalina y 2-Metilnaftalina)
August 2005
CAS#: Naphthalene 91-20-3; 1-Methylnapthalene 90-12-0; 2-Methylnapthalene 91-57-6
This fact sheet answers the most frequently asked health questions about naphthalene, 1-methylnapthalene, and 2-methylnapthalene. For more information, you may call the ATSDR Information Center at 1-800-232-4636. This fact sheet is one in a series of summaries about hazardous substances and their health effects. This information is important because this substance may harm you. The effects of exposure to any hazardous substance depend on the dose, the duration, how you are exposed, personal traits and habits, and whether other chemicals are present.
Exposure to naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, or 2-methylnaphthalene happens mostly from breathing air contaminated from the burning of wood, tobacco, or fossil fuels, industrial discharges, or moth repellents. Exposure to large amounts of naphthalene may damage or destroy some of your red blood cells. Naphthalene has caused cancer in animals. Naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, and 2-methylnaphthalene have been found in at least 687, 36, and 412, respectively, of the 1,662 National Priority List sites identified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
What are naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, and 2-methylnaphthalene?
Naphthalene is a white solid that evaporates easily. Fuels such as petroleum and coal contain naphthalene. It is also called white tar, and tar camphor, and has been used in mothballs and moth flakes. Burning tobacco or wood produces naphthalene. It has a strong, but not unpleasant smell. The major commercial use of naphthalene is in the manufacture of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) plastics. Its major consumer use is in moth repellents and toilet deodorant blocks.
1-Methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene are naphthalene-related compounds. 1-Methylnaphthalene is a clear liquid and 2-methylnaphthalene is a solid; both can be smelled in air and in water at very low concentrations. 1-Methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene are used to make other chemicals such as dyes and resins. 2-Methylnaphthalene is also used to make vitamin K.
What happens to naphthalene, 1 methylnaphthalene, and 2 methylnaphthalene when they enter the environment?
- Naphthalene enters the environment from industrial and domestic sources, and from accidental spills.
- Naphthalene can dissolve in water to a limited degree and may be present in drinking water from wells close to hazardous waste sites and landfills.
- Naphthalene can become weakly attached to soil or pass through soil into underground water.
- In air, moisture and sunlight break it down within 1 day. In water, bacteria break it down or it evaporates into the air.
- Naphthalene does not accumulate in the flesh of animals or fish that you might eat.
- 1-Methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene are expected to act like naphthalene in air, water, or soil because they have similar chemical and physical properties.
How might I be exposed to naphthalene, 1 methylnaphthalene, and 2 methylnaphthalene?
- Breathing low levels in outdoor air.
- Breathing air contaminated from industrial discharges or smoke from burning wood, tobacco, or fossil fuels.
- Using or making moth repellents, coal tar products, dyes or inks could expose you to these chemicals in the air.
- Drinking water from contaminated wells.
- Touching fabrics that are treated with moth repellents containing naphthalene.
- Exposure to naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene from eating foods or drinking beverages is unlikely.
How can naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, and 2-methylnaphthalene affect my health?
Exposure to large amounts of naphthalene may damage or destroy some of your red blood cells. This could cause you to have too few red blood cells until your body replaces the destroyed cells. This condition is called hemolytic anemia. Some symptoms of hemolytic anemia are fatigue, lack of appetite, restlessness, and pale skin. Exposure to large amounts of naphthalene may also cause nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, blood in the urine, and a yellow color to the skin. Animals sometimes develop cloudiness in their eyes after swallowing high amounts of naphthalene. It is not clear whether this also develops in people. Rats and mice that breathed naphthalene vapors daily for a lifetime developed irritation and inflammation of their nose and lungs. It is unclear if naphthalene causes reproductive effects in animals; most evidence says it does not.
There are no studies of humans exposed to 1-methylnaphthalene or 2-methylnaphthalene.
Mice fed food containing 1-methylnaphthalene and 2-methylnaphthalene for most of their lives had part of their lungs filled with an abnormal material.
How likely are naphthalene, 1 methylnaphthalene, or 2 methylnaphthalene to cause cancer?
There is no direct evidence in humans that naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, or 2-methylnaphthalene cause cancer. However, cancer from naphthalene exposure has been seen in animal studies. Some female mice that breathed naphthalene vapors daily for a lifetime developed lung tumors. Some male and female rats exposed to naphthalene in a similar manner also developed nose tumors.
Based on the results from animal studies, the Department of Health and Humans Services (DHHS) concluded that naphthalene is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen. The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) concluded that naphthalene is possibly carcinogenic to humans. The EPA determined that naphthalene is a possible human carcinogen (Group C) and that the data are inadequate to assess the human carcinogenic potential of 2-methylnaphthalene.
How can naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, or 2-methylnaphthalene affect children?
Hospitals have reported many cases of hemolytic anemia in children, including newborns and infants, who either ate naphthalene mothballs or deodorants cakes or who were in close contact with clothing or blankets stored in naphthalene mothballs. Naphthalene can move from a pregnant woman's blood to the unborn baby's blood. Naphthalene has been detected in some samples of breast milk from the general U.S. population, but not at levels that are expected to be of concern.
There is no information on whether naphthalene has affected development in humans. No developmental abnormalities were observed in the offspring from rats, mice, and rabbits fed naphthalene during pregnancy.
We do not have any information on possible health effects of 1-methylnaphthalene or 2-methylnaphthalene on children.
How can families reduce the risks of exposure to naphthalene, 1 methylnaphthalene, and 2 methylnaphthalene?
- Families can reduce the risks of exposure to naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, and 2-methylnaphthalene by avoiding smoking tobacco, generating smoke during cooking, or using fireplaces or heating appliances in the their homes.
- If families use naphthalene-containing moth repellents, the material should be enclosed in containers that prevent vapors from escaping, and kept out of the reach from children.
- Blankets and clothing stored with naphthalene moth repellents should be aired outdoors to remove naphthalene odors and washed before they are used.
- Families should inform themselves of the contents of air deodorizers that are used in their homes and refrain from using deodorizers with naphthalene.
Is there a medical test to determine whether I've been exposed to naphthalene, 1 methylnaphthalene, and 2 methylnaphthalene?
Tests are available that measure levels of these chemicals and their breakdown products in samples of urine, feces, blood, maternal milk, or body fat. These tests are not routinely available in a doctor's office because they require special equipment, but samples can be sent to special testing laboratories. These tests cannot determine exactly how much naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, or 2-methylnaphthalene you were exposed to or predict whether harmful effects will occur. If the samples are collected within a day or two of exposure, then the tests can show if you were exposed to a large or small amount of naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, or 2-methylnaphthalene.
Has the federal government made recommendations to protect human health?
The EPA recommends that children not drink water with over 0.5 parts per million (0.5 ppm) naphthalene for more than 10 days or over 0.4 ppm for any longer than 7 years. Adults should not drink water with more than 1 ppm for more than 7 years. For water consumed over a lifetime (70 years), the EPA suggests that it contain no more than 0.1 ppm naphthalene.
The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) set a limit of 10 ppm for the level of naphthalene in workplace air during an 8-hour workday, 40-hour workweek. The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) considers more than 500 ppm of naphthalene in air to be immediately dangerous to life or health. This is the exposure level of a chemical that is likely to impair a worker's ability to leave a contaminate area and therefore, results in permanent health problems or death.

Beyond The Break is a tale of a freak accident, a terrifying rescue and the long and painful journey home
- Scroll down to read an excerpt from Beyond The Break
Darren Longbottom believes everyone has a story, and he's now ready to tell his.
After 10 years, the owner of Kiama's Zink Surf has finally decided to tell the world of his harrowing ordeal that took the use of his legs.
The 46-year-old's new book, Beyond the Break, has hit book stores this week. It is a story of tragedy and resilience.
"I was at an apex in my life, everything was running smoothly," Longbottom told the Mercury. "Then with a click of fingers everything just changed 180 degrees."
He said as time ticked on he started to think writing a book would help his daughter Bowie, 11, to fully understand fully what happened to her dad.
Longbottom and his brother Dylan were spoilt for choice growing up surfing on the shores of Cronulla before their family moved south to Dapto. However the distance to the ocean didn't deter them and it wasn't long until they found many other "Daptoids" shared a love for the sea.
Years later Dylan went on the road as a "free surfer" while Daz pursued a career in the surf industry, learning every aspect of the trade.
"As the '90s ticked past into a new century and the young Aussies of the '70s settled into early middle age, almost all of them found a way to keep the adventure rolling with a trip to the island chains off western Sumatra, Indonesia," wrote Nick Carroll in the book's forward.
"Longbottom found himself at this spot in May 2008. Right there, in a surf zone generally regarded by the core of the surf community as a kind of Heaven … it's also a place of serious risk."
A freak accident 14 hours from civilisation, a jaunt in an unregistered helicopter with a cowboy pilot, an emergency landing in the jungle with fears of cannibalism, then a white-knuckle ride in a makeshift ambulance were only the beginning of the tale.
For a long time, Longbottom said, he pushed aside friends and family urging him to put his story on paper. Instead he opted to focus on moving forward and learning to live again after the incident.
After befriending writer and fellow Arsenal Football Club fan Tim Rushby-Smith – who is also without the use of his legs – they decided to work together to retell what happened.
"It was quite interesting for me to take the time and acknowledge what I did go through," Longbottom said of the writing process. "It was also good to actually join some dots, things that I never knew happened."
After moving to Gerringong from the UK, Rushby-Smith found comfort in knowing Daz was close by – a bit of "peer to peer support" in a new country.
"There is a sort of unspoken, shared experience," he said. "There's a whole load of stuff you don't have to go through the process to explain or if you're having a bad day they know what a bad day is in spinal terms."
Rushby-Smith said it was great to chat to someone about things like the Australian health system or complaining about navigating the many hills around Kiama and Gerringong.
He also said the 18-month writing process became a little emotional as it made himself revisit his own journey.
"It was an interesting experience hearing someone else [discuss] how they handled it or reflected on it," Rushby-Smith.
In 2005, the former tree-surgeon feel out of a tree and damaged his T12 vertebra, making him a paraplegic. Longbottom broke his C5 and C6 vertebrae and suffered much worse damage to his spinal chord.
"My rescue was fairly short by comparison but I only had one injury and no other health complications and it was instant and permanent," Rushby-Smith said, who wrote his own book in 2008.
For readers, Longbottom hopes they take away a sense of how precious life is but at the same time to keep "pushing through" when life's journey takes a dip.
"Anything can happen at any moment," he said. "But you've got to keep breaking down barriers that are put in front of you. We all just need to look forward and keep going."
Riding a surfboard may be out of the question but there are still many things Longbottom can do that initially he thought impossible – like driving, swimming and "playing around" in the ocean on prone paddle boards.
"Everyone has a story, this is just mine," he said.
Beyond the Break is in book stores now through Penguin Random House Publishing.
Darren Longbottom will be having a book signing at Zink Surf in Kiama on August 10 at 7pm.
- An excerpt from the new book
Another thread of thought enters my head: Well, the helicopter's still here, so he's got to come back. But then he just might not come back for a while, and these guys might sort me out. Then he can just take his helicopter and be on his way. He's in an isolated place; he can get away from everyone.
I feel like I'm still hallucinating, because I'm forever staring up and not really wanting to close my eyes. But as the reality of the situation comes over me in waves, I have to close my eyes for parts of it. I use the one-to-ten method that I normally turn to if a situation threatens to get the best of me. I simply take a step back and count to ten while breathing slowly; it's a trigger that calms me down and lets my senses re-engage.
Everything is black – there are no lights around. My hands and arms are tied. The wide eyes surrounding me are filled with shock, just as much shock as I'm feeling.
I try to wrestle control back, to not freak out – It's a broken neck.
I didn't die. I can be fixed up. Everything will start working again.
Getting out of here, staying alive – that has to be the focus.
The muttering of the crowd around me continues, what feels like a thousand conversations. I'm still trying to pick out key words – whether it's 'one', 'two', 'safe', 'home', anything like that – my mind attempting to process every single sound in the hope that I can make out some sort of dialogue. My brain is going a hundred miles an hour. I'm cursing myself for not spending enough time learning the language on my countless trips to this part of the world. But one big thought keeps coming back: They're going to take me away and cook me!
I can sense from the tightening crowd that something is going on . . . and then I feel myself moving. I realise people are touching me, rubbing me, tugging me around my legs and feet, somewhere down where I can't see . . . My feet and legs are laying off my board and in the dirt. It's so peculiar that while I can feel no touch, I can still sense my lower limbs are moving because my upper body is moving with them. I also have weird sensations shooting through my body, as if someone turned up the temperature in my blood, then it disappears again.
I try to scream, 'Don't touch me!' I'm freaking out now for a couple of reasons. One: I know I'm paralysed and shouldn't be moved at all. Two: I don't want this mass of complete strangers touching me. I try again to escape to that special place in my mind, but it's not working – there's just too much stuff happening that's not making sense. Before there was more muttering and quiet discussion, so I could take myself away, but now that I know I'm being moved, panic overpowers my mind.
Then I start to hear something different from the normal voices I've been trying to decipher. It begins with two or three people, and it seems to be growing louder. It sounds like singing . . . Then I realise it's more like chanting. My thoughts run straight back to that image of the cauldron in the cartoons. What else could it be? F***, this is it – I'm gone! I've always believed that two of humanity's greatest fears are being paralysed and being eaten alive, and it looks like I'm going to have both dealt to me inside of a day.

Elaine is back!
That is, if Elaine worked in politics and not publishing. Funny front woman and Emmy winner Julia Louis-Dreyfus will star in a new HBO political comedy, Entertainment Weekly reports.
Louis-Dreyfus, of "Seinfeld," and more recently, "The New Adventures of Old Christine," will play a former senator who becomes Vice President, but finds out the job description is a bit different than what she thought.
U.S. & World
News from around the country and around the globe
The comedy, called "Veep," will star "Arrested Development's" Tony Hale as her aid, and Sufe Bradshaw ("Overnight") as the veep's assistant.
"I take the role of vice president very seriously," Louis-Dreyfus said in a statement. "and although everyone says it's a comedy, I don't think there is anything funny at all about me being a heartbeat away from the presidency."
