Wood Deck Paint Colors
Deck paint colors are the appearance of the deck itself in case of creating an atmosphere around it. In order to paint the deck with using characteristic color, we have to choose the suitable one. In this case, the deck itself is usually built by wooden material. To make it natural, we need such kind of color that has natural appearance too. Brown, in this case, is the much matched one. Using brown color as the deck color seems good as the wooden material color. Covering the surface with paint is also being the way to bring the secure of the deck too.
Absolutely, the way of painting the deck is not only by using a specific color. However, there are so many creative ideas that can we pour in to the deck itself. For the example, we can make the deck with the colorful theme. Using dome different paint colors will be good such like blue, yellow, and red and so on. Applying the colorful theme to the deck will bring a wonderful atmosphere especially for those people who have their children who are still in a kid age. It will be fun to them.
Deck is being the part of the house which is used to be the place to spend a relaxing time such like having a tea time or such like family time. Considering the function, painting the deck can be good for creating the atmosphere. As mentioned before, natural painting will be good for the deck itself. To bring the warmness and refreshing atmosphere, the natural wood pain color is good for creating a natural touch to the environment. However, there are many kinds of creative ideas that you can bring in into your own deck. Use your creative mind to make your deck wonderful.

I mainly read history because it is fun. I do, however, occasionally have other reasons. For example, I think that reading history can be an important part of our moral education. Aristotle argues in his Ethics that one ought not to expect a greater level of certainty from a field than the field can deliver. In context, he was making the point that abstract ethical precepts and concepts will only get one so far when it comes to leading a good life. At some point or another, judgment is inevitable. Judgment is not a matter of deducing conclusions from abstract premises. Rather, it is a matter of making good decisions based on wisdom accumulated by experience. History is useful, I think, because it can be a surrogate for experience. We can only live so much, but by reading about the past we can accumulate a vast fund of particulars from the lives of others that can yield a kind of wisdom.
One might also read history to understand the way that human societies work. One has to be careful with this, however. It seems to me that at its best history is a kind of constrained story telling. One constructs a narrative where the sorts of statements one can make are limited by one's sources. This is no small task, and those who can do it well have mastered a very difficult skill. Nevertheless, it doesn't seem to me that the tools that one must become proficient with to do this sort of thing — the collection and interpretation of primary sources — are all that good for making broad generalizations about human societies. To be sure, historians from time to time say good and profound things about human society, but there is a sense in which their insights are serendipitous rather than the yield of a disciplined methodology. In this sense, historical insight into human society is very much like Aristotle's judgment. It is less a matter of constructing and defending abstract theories than it is about wisdom that emerges from the piling on of particulars.
Of late, I have found another reason for reading history. It helps me to find a sense of place. For the last ten years or so, I have been a fine example of modern American mobility, moving almost annually sometimes within a city or state but often across much larger distances. This kind of mobility can have a corrosive effect on one's sense of belonging and connection with place. Despite over a decade away from it, I still feel in some sense as though Salt Lake City is home. In large part this is because that's where my family (or at least a large chunk of it) lives, and it is where I grew up. But it is also because I know the history of Salt Lake. My knowledge of the city is not merely geographic but also temporal and this two-dimensionality binds me to it.
It looks as though we are finally settling down. I don't anticipate the nearly annual ritual of moving that has characterized my married life thus far. We are now where we are going to live, at least for some time. As fate would have it, we have been cast upon the shores of the James River in the Virginia tidewater. My own roots in America are almost entirely New England and Canadian. I am not descended from Virginians. Hence, I can claim no genetic relationship to my new community. Yet just as history can be a surrogate for experience, it can also be a surrogate for lineage. And so I am reading books about the history of Jamestowne and colonial Virginia, trying to trace out the geography of past events onto my surroundings: I'm two miles from the first English settlement, just down the road from Green Spring, the 17th century plantation of the colonial governor. If I take route 31 into town, I find myself crossing the line that Nathaniel Bacon's rebels occupied when they besieged the colonial capital in the 17th century. I am learning about Powhatan and Pocahontas, both of whom left their names for creeks that bisect my surroundings. I am not looking for a grand theory of the Virginia tidewater, just a thicker set of particulars in which to live my life.
Ultimately it is the particulars that are the great virtue of history.

Joey sleeping in my bed
I have been letting Joey sleep in my bed the past couple of nights, but alas I think I need to stop this now.
Last night when my hubby came home - Joey started growling and barking at him - when he told him no he just kept continuing. So I got up and called Joey to his bed and made him sleep there instead.
Apparently too there were issues in Joeys former home which would contribute to this behavior. Joey is fine with my husband during the day. Last night and this time
http://www.pets.ca/forum/showthread.php?t=24203 are the only times he has growled or barked at my husband.
Spay or neuter your girl or guy
Please dont let us multiply!
Unfortunately, Joey just lost his right to your bed.. That's typically a no no with spaniels particuliarly if they already have a few alpha tendencies.. he doesn't see your husband as the male alpha in the house.
"For every animal that dies in a shelter, there is someone somewhere responsible for its death".
Letting dogs sleep in your bed can be fine as long as you are the one making the decision not him and it should be set up so that you may invite him to sleep in your bed and maybe tomorrow you say, not tonight sleep in your own bed.
The problem that can happen that you have already seen would be and is a reason why I may not let them sleep in the bed.
The scenerio that I use is say your dog goes to bed with both of you and everything is fine and then for whatever reason someone comes to bed late and the dog says I don't think so, you are not getting in this bed. If you see this behaviour I would say no sharing the bed with the dog.
I made a compromise with Charley. When we're at my house he goes to bed in his crate (with the door open). Around 4 am he'll ask to come up (sticks front paws up on bed, whines, then sits on the floor.) and sometimes I say yes and pick him up (he's too small to jump up on his own), sometimes I say no and he goes back to his crate. At my boyfriend's he sleeps in his crate at the foot of the bed with the door open and is more than happy to stay there for the night.
While he wouldn't chase my boyfriend out of the room, he used to chase the cats off the bed, and that is not a fight I wanted to fight in the dead of the night. By telling him no more often that I said yes he learned that the bed was mine and who ever I wanted up on it was going to have to be ok with him otherwise it was back to the crate.
Absolutely in agreement with PetFriendly. After I was certain that Harley was fully housebroken, I was prone to often letting her sleep on the bed with me. That was right up until she started to view that as her space and help herself to it without an invitation. Needlessly to say, she was booted out of the bed and not allowed back on for quite awhile.
Now I always make a point of letting her "in bed" days be few and far between. It has made such a difference. She's so good about it, you know she wants to jump up but just won't do it until I tell her it's okay.
I used to have a Multiple Personality Disorder, but the doctor says we are fine now.
Harley - 8 year old Beagle x Dobie
Jet - 10 month old Labrador Retriever
Remember the bed itself is not the issue - it is a symptom of the relationship. Changing the bed rules can be neccessary for the time being but you need to re-examine your relationship. Everything belongs to the leader and that includes the bed.

Art as expression in Canadajulie p September 3, 2017 0 COMMENTS
Art as expression
The view that "art is imitation (representation)" has not only been challenged, it has been moribund in at least some of the
arts for more than a century. It was subsequently replaced by the theory that art is expression. Instead of reflecting states of
the external world, art is held to reflect the inner state of the artist. This, at least, seems to be implicit in the core meaning
of "expression": the outer manifestation of an inner state. Art as a representation of outer existence (admittedly "seen through a
temperament") has been replaced by art as an expression of humans' inner life.
But the terms "express" and "expression" are ambiguous and do not always denote the same thing. Like so many other terms,
"express" is subject to the process–product ambiguity: the same word is used for a process and for the product that results
from that process. "The music expresses feeling" may mean that the composer expressed his feeling in writing the music or
that the music when heard is expressive (in some way yet to be defined) of human feeling. Based on the first sense are theories
about the creation of art. Founded on the second are theories about the content of art and the completion of its creation.
Art is a diverse range of human activities in creating visual, auditory or performing artifacts (artworks), expressing the author's imaginative or technical skill, intended to be appreciated for their beauty or emotional power.12 In their most general form these activities include the production of works of art, the criticism of art, the study of the history of art, and the aesthetic dissemination of art.
The oldest documented forms of art are visual arts, which include creation of images or objects in fields including today painting, sculpture, printmaking, photography, and other visual media.
Architecture is often included as one of the visual arts; however, like the decorative arts, or advertising,3 it involves the creation of objects where the practical considerations of use are essential—in a way that they usually are not in a painting, for example.
Music, theatre, film, dance, and other performing arts, as well as literature and other media such as interactive media, are included in a broader definition of art or the arts.14 Until the 17th century, art referred to any skill or mastery and was not differentiated from crafts or sciences.
In modern usage after the 17th century, where aesthetic considerations are paramount, the fine arts are separated and distinguished from acquired skills in general, such as the decorative or applied arts.
Art may be characterized in terms of mimesis (its representation of reality), narrative (storytelling), expression, communication of emotion, or other qualities. During the Romantic period, art came to be seen as "a special faculty of the human mind to be classified with religion and science".5
Though the definition of what constitutes art is disputed678 and has changed over time, general descriptions mention an idea of imaginative or technical skill stemming from human agency9 and creation.10

Winterterm Enrollment Grows 60 PercentThursday, December 24th, 2009
The SUNY Canton Winterterm session saw exactly 800 students start courses on Monday, making it the College's largest online Winterterm ever.
Winterterm enrollment increased nearly 60 percent from last year and is now five times as large as the 160 students who enrolled in the first Winterterm session four years ago in 2005-2006.
Winterterm enrollment mirrors the overall growth of the College. SUNY Canton has experienced all-time highs in enrollment for the past two years, including 3,300 students at the beginning of the Fall 2009 Semester.
"Our back-to-back record-setting enrollment, along with incredible Winterterm and Summerterm growth demonstrates how well students and community members are recognizing the excellent academic programs that we offer," said SUNY Canton President Joseph L. Kennedy. "We've broadened the access to a quality career-driven higher education through affordable tuition, and the flexibility of our class scheduling and online courses."
Winterterm offers several economic, academic, and timesaving benefits for students and faculty members. The entirely online courses can be accessed via computer from anywhere, reducing travel expenses and winter commuting difficulties.
"Winterterm is a great way for students to catch up or get ahead. It's an effective way to utilize time between semesters and on the weekends during the holiday break," said Dean of Academic Services and Retention Molly A. Mott. "It's also interesting to note that for the second straight year, nearly 60 percent of Winterterm students are coming to us from other colleges. It's nice that we are able to accommodate them with our expanded course selection."
The College's Director of Admissions, Jonathan Kent credits the career-driven educational focus for much of the expansion. "Whether we're talking about our specialty Winterterm or Summerterm sessions, or our traditional semester, we are without a doubt the fastest growing college in the North Country," he said. "There are a number of our programs that are recession-proof, meaning that regardless of the economy, students will probably have a career waiting for them when they graduate."
Media inquiries should be directed to Gregory Kie, Media Relations Coordinator, or call 315/386-7528.

There's no way to sugarcoat or qualify this: news wires are abuzz with reports of widespread abuse of minors by UN peacekeepers and other humanitarian workers in post-conflict nations. According to a report released today by UK nonprofit Save the Children that focuses on the Ivory Coast, Haiti, and southern Sudan, "the perpetrators of sexual abuse of children could be found in every type of humanitarian organization at all levels." In Sudan, "people don't report [sexual abuse] because they are worried that the agency will stop working here, and we need them," a teen says. There are many specific instances of abuse described by the the organization, but the most chilling so far is the story of 'Elizabeth' (pictured above left), a 13-year-old from the Ivory Coast.
According to the BBC, 10 UN "peacekeepers" gang-raped Elizabeth in a field. "They grabbed me and threw me to the ground and they forced themselves on me... I tried to escape but there were 10 of them and I could do nothing…I was terrified. Then they just left me there bleeding." When village elders tried to report the abuse, they were ignored.
Save the Children suggests that a global watchdog organization be formed to monitor these kinds of abuses, supplemented by local complaints mechanisms and public awareness campaigns. In the meantime, the UN says it has a zero tolerance policy when allegations of sexual abuse are at hand, and last year 100 Sri Lankan soldiers stationed in Haiti were sent home when it became evident that they were paying for sex.

Carbon monoxide leak found at Flint house where 3 died
FLINT (AP) -- A utility spokesman says a furnace was leaking carbon monoxide at a house in Flint where a couple and an 11-year-old boy died of apparent poisoning from the gas.
Flint police say 43-year-old LeTroy Edwards, 37-year-old Selena Carranza and 11-year-old Jayson Cobbin were found dead in the home on Christmas morning. Several other people who were in different parts of the house managed to escape.
Mlive.com (http://bit.ly/VElsog ) reports that CMS Energy Corp. spokesman Dan Bishop says the furnace's boiler "was plugged with soot and was causing a carbon monoxide leak."
Authorities haven't released an official cause of death.
Federal authorities say about 400 people die nationwide each year from carbon monoxide poisoning. The odorless gas forms when something burns without an adequate supply of oxygen.

A man accused of starting the fire that killed a Lombard woman traded text messages with her for several hours as he stood outside her house before setting her car aflame, authorities said today.
DuPage County State's Atty. Robert Berlin released additional details about the fatal fire at a news conference shortly after Todd Mandoline, 23, was ordered held without bail.
Mandoline of Villa Park was charged Tuesday with first-degree murder, aggravated arson and arson in the early morning blaze Sunday that killed Paula Morgan, 24.
An acquaintance named Jason Cassidy, 25, was also injured and was in critical but stable condition Wednesday.
"He's fighting for his life as we speak," Berlin said.
Morgan's 6-year-old son escaped the fire without injury.
Berlin said Mandoline and Morgan had a dating relationship at some point and that Mandoline had been at the house Saturday to celebrate Morgan's birthday at a party.
He was asked to leave and was driven back to his Villa Park residence, according to Berlin.
Authorities say Mandoline walked the two miles back to Morgan's house and stood outside for several hours, trading text messages with her.
At some point, Berlin said, Mandoline "became enraged."
Mandoline shoved a piece of twisted paper into the gas tank opening of her 2003 Acura and set it on fire, Berlin said.
The car was parked in the driveway, but the flames spread to the garage and house, he said.
The prosecutor declined to say what may have angered Mandoline or why he was asked to leave the party. He also declined to release the contents of the text messages.
Based on interviews with the party-goers, police took Mandoline into custody early Sunday.
Mandoline appeared briefly before DuPage County Judge John Kinsella, who ordered him held without bond until his next appearance, which is set for Aug. 13.
A number of family members of Morgan and Cassidy attended the hearing, but declined to speak with the media.

CARSON, Calif. – For the Houston Dynamo in 2011, everything seemed to click in the middle of September. Geoff Cameron shifted back to central defense, Luiz Camargo slotted in at central midfield, and suddenly all those 1-1 and 2-2 draws turned into 1-0 and 2-1 wins.
Houston, of course, eventually found themselves in the MLS Cup final, and aim to get back there again in 2012. But along the way they'd like to have a few more 3-0 and 4-0 outings, and much of the pressure for that is falling squarely onto the shoulders of second-year forward Will Bruin.
"Last year was kind of a roller coaster of a year, I had my ups and my downs," Bruin told MLSsoccer.com on Thursday morning. "I might have had my ups a little too early."
As early as April 29, as a matter of fact. That was the day that Bruin burst into the consciousness of every MLS fan with a hat trick and all-around dominant performance against D.C. United.
Following that game, though, he went on a prolonged scoring drought, and ended up tallying just once more all season. It was a game-winner against San Jose – a superbly taken volley – and both he and his teammates are expecting more of that this time around.
"He'll do the dirty work, he gets stuck in tackles, he keeps pressuring and pressuring," Cameron said of Bruin's game. "But he's gotta be a little more selfish in the final third. There's times when he's passing the ball up when he should be shooting it. With his talent, scoring three goals in a game – he could be doing that consistently every single game."
Hyperbole aside, Bruin knows he has to be a consistent threat in his second year. He showed well in the Dynamo's 2-0 win over Montreal on Wednesday, setting up the first goal by peeling off the front line then beating a defender, then dummying a pass at the top of the box for strike partner Cam Weaver on the second goal.
It was a performance that earned the praise of head coach Dominic Kinnear.
"I thought he was key for us on both goals," Kinnear said of the big forward. "We want more of that from him this season, and he has the talent to be that guy for us."
Whether he makes the most of that opening is something Bruin isn't leaving to chance. He's been working on his game both physically and mentally, and seems to have a grasp of both where and how to improve.
"When to make runs, what kind of runs to make, knowing that it's not just one run that's gonna free you up. You've got to make multiple runs," is what Bruin said he's focused on in the offseason. "And then I'm a goal scorer, so I'm supposed to be shooting. When I'm around the box, be greedy."
His teammates will like the sound of that.

Here's some background and notation:
Let $G/K$ be a symmetric space of non-compact type. For concreteness, assume $G$ is in fact a classical simple real Lie group such as SL,SO, or Sp, and $K$ is a maximal compact subgroup in $G$.
The tangent space to $p_{0}=1 \in G/K$ is identified with $\frak{p}$ where $\frak{p}$ is an orthogonal complement to the Lie algebra of $K$ inside the Lie algebra of $G$, with respect to the trace pairing on the latter. Furthermore, the exponential map $\exp: {\frak p} \rightarrow G$ followed by the quotient map $G \rightarrow G/K$ is a diffeomorphism. Put another way, given a point $p \in G/K$, there is a unique $x \in \frak{p}$ so that $\exp(x)=p$, and the unique length-parametrized geodesic connecting $p_{0}$ to $p$ is $\exp(t x/|x|)$.
I would like to understand the "equidistant hypersurface" $H_{p_{0},p}$ between $p_{0}$ and $p$, consisting of those points $q$ in $G/K$ that are equidistant from $p_{0}$ and $p$.
My question is whether this equidistant hypersurface $H_{p_{0},p}$ can be obtained by exponentiating the affine hyperplane in $\frak{p}$ that passes through the centre of and is orthogonal to the line connecting $0$ and $x$, where $\exp(x)=p$.
This seems intuitively correct, but sometimes intuition is misleading in higher rank symmetric spaces.
EDIT: The answer is no for the question as stated (see answers below), so I would like to revise the question to the following:
Explain why the bisector between $p_{0}$ and $p$ is obtained by exponentiating the hyperplane orthogonal to $[p_{0},p]$ in the tangent space at the midpoint $m \in [p_{0},p]$.
Explain whether the following is true: we can compute the bisector between $p_{0}$ and $p$ by looking at the whole geodesic line through $p_{0}$ and $p$, computing the bisector between $p$ and $-p$ by exponentiating from the tangent space at $p_{0}$, and then translating this bisector along the geodesic from $p_{0}$ to the midpoint of $[p_{0},p]$.

It was in 2004 at the LabAutomation conference in San Jose, Calif., when we introduced an innovative concept in our market: DDNews, a monthly newspaper dedicated to the news of technology and business in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. Industry friends and competitors alike wished us luck, but we knew what they were really thinking: "Lots of luck!" It was a crowded market for publications covering drug discovery, but as time went on, many of those publications merged, folded or cut their services to readers—while DDNews continued to invest in our readership.
Now celebrating our 10th year in 2014, DDNews continues to produce many vehicles that disseminate the news. Knowing that people get their information from more than one source, we offer many fully integrated "touchpoints" to deliver the news. We curently offer 15 sources of news to our readers and several marketing vehicles to our advertisers.
DDNews' monthly print newspaper, which has a circulation of more than 30,000 drug-discovery research professionals throughout North America, is akin to the business section of your daily newspaper, but delivers news that is specific to the pharma/biotech industries. For DDNews, the press releases that pique our interest are merely the starting point. From there, our business news journalists hit the phones and conduct interviews with the principals involved in a story—and often those not directly involved—to give an outside perspective. In other words, we dig to get the "story behind the story," always with a keen eye toward how the story affects the business of drug discovery.
Regular features and departments provide you with the latest news involving global partnerships and business deals; automation, instrumentation and informatics trends; diagnostics and personalized medicine; 'omics and systems biology developments; research and development efforts; contract research service providers and industry outsourcing; government/regulatory developments; new products and services; financial market trends; relevant market research; people and events, and much more.
While early in our history, DDNews focused on mergers and acquisitions—which continue to reshape this market—DDNews' journalists also find themselves increasingly reporting on collaborations and licensing deals between companies of all sizes and specialties, technology providers and academic institutions, all of which are expected to have significant clinical implications in the next decade or so. While we continue to develop news products in response to these trends, our monthly print newspaper will remain the "mother ship" of our rapidly growing company. We'll celebrate our roots as we integrate our newspaper with our many other vehicles.
One of our specialized news divisions, DDNews Special Reports, gives us opportunities several times throughout the year to examine specific trends or current topics of importance to the drug discovery arena. This year, our industry-leading editors are taking an in-depth look at the burgeoning areas of cancer research, drug repurposing, stem cell research and personalized medicine. These topics represent some of the fastest-growing areas of research and are of great interest to readers and advertisers alike.
In August 2011, we launched another news division, DDNews Market Research, in which we share with its readers periodic surveys conducted with Mizuho Securities USA Inc. (MSUSA) about various life-science research trends and topics. MSUSA is the U.S. investment banking subsidiary of the Mizuho Financial Group in Tokyo, one of the world's largest banking organizations. MSUSA will use the data collected in these surveys to help gauge spending in the pharmaceutical and biotech sectors. We will continue to conduct surveys and share this meaningful market research with you once per quarter.
In September 2011, we launched DDNews Cancer Research News, which houses all of our reporting on the latest oncology research news, trends and resources. This offshoot web resource showcases all of our cancer-related coverage, features some of the industry's oncology leaders and serves as a bridge between you and the cancer community. In addition, a special RSS feed at the top of the page puts you just one click away from our up-to-the-minute cancer-related headlines.
DDNews Online is a twice-monthly, opt-in, subscription-based e-newsletter reaching more than 60,400 subscribers worldwide. This e-newsletter covers breaking business stories as well as recent significant research findings, and gives you a list of industry conferences and events that you may be interested in attending.
And of course, DDNews' website, www.ddn-news.com, is a fully integrated, online news portal housing all of our in-depth content, industry resources, product literature, white papers and archived print issues. With EditConnect and AdvConnect features, DDNews provides our readers with links to additional editorial and product resources. DDNews' web usage last year generated more than 4.6 million downloaded pages.
The DDNews e-New Product Showcase is delivered on a quarterly schedule to more than 60,000 recipients. Much like the product showcases we have developed for industry trade groups like SLAS and AACR, the e-New Product Showcase delivers information on worldwide new products and services, with hyperlinks to manufacturer and supplier websites as well as embedded product videos.
Readers of DDNews' various news vehicles include senior management; lab managers; principal investigators and scientists in pharma/biotech companies; scientific professionals in academia involved in drug R&D; CROs; government agencies; and clinical consultants.
We will continue to invest in these important news vehicles as our audience continues to grow and the industry continues to evolve.
DDNEWS is published by Old River Publications LLC, an innovative publishing company founded in 2005 by Bruce Poorman, president and publisher, and Larry Doyle, executive vice president and associate publisher. With corporate offices in Rocky River, Ohio, just west of Cleveland, our editorial, production, marketing and advertising sales staff are located in key locations throughout the country.

Need business news?
We'll deliver it.
Just six short months after the termination announcement of Modern Drug Discovery, former MDD executives and editors presened you with a unique and exclusive format for pharmaceutical industry news.
We know many of you are inundated with information, most of it reliable, technical updates which appear in many magazines, journals, websites and newsletters. However, unlike the other journals in this market that burrow deep into the technology and the science of the industry, DDNEWS is the trusted news source for what is happening in the business environment of drug discovery.
We are a newspaper. Printed on newsprint. Sized like a newspaper. Designed like a newspaper. Most importantly, we report stories like a newspaper. This means our reporting of the news doesn't begin and end with the company news release.
For DDNEWS, the press releases that pique our interest are merely the starting point. From there our business news journalists hit the phones and conduct interviews with the principals involved in a story and often those not directly involved to give an outside perspective. In other words, we dig to get the story behind the story and always with a keen eye toward how the story affects the business of drug discovery.
Our news format keeps you informed about what is happening with your partners, your competitors as well as other developments around the globe, which strategically affect business.
There is no other publication in this market that covers news specifically in pharmaceutical drug discovery, therefore, we envision DDN as "the" news source for the drug discovery and development industry.
You will notice that each issue is divided into six departments:
Within these departments our editors scour their resources for in-depth news to keep you knowledgeable on what is happening right now in the drug discovery marketplace. Better yet, this business news is delivered in an easy-to-read and usable format with concise stories that make it easy for you to quickly gather the information you need.
DDNEWS is an authentic news vehicle— not an association house organ or technical journal. It delivers reader value by covering the issues, trends and product news that impact decision makers in the drug discovery and development arena every day. The DDN website offers weekly updates on breaking stories within the industry and gives advertisers a resource with which to interact with subscribers who respond to their advertising. Also, editorial links are provided for expanded coverage of particular articles.
According to the Pharmaceutical Research and Manufacturing Association (PhRMA), there are nearly 400 cancer drug candidates, 300 drug candidates related to treating aging-related diseases and more than 150 pediatric drugs currently in development. Technical journals cannot keep you abreast because of the magnitude of this business activity. DDNEWS can.
We invite you to subscribe and to give us your comments by e-mail or through the Reader Survey (96kb .pdf file). DDNEWS is delivered monthly to 30,000 drug discovery research professionals throughout North America with plans to soon expand circulation to overseas readers.
We look forward to your comments and suggestions and serving our readers and advertisers with our unique format for many years to come.

I come to clutter naturally. Whatever the Latin is for "Don't throw that out! I might need it!" should go on my family's coat of arms. But if Eric Caldwell or Murray Whitehill were to say those words, I might actually believe that whatever was at hand— whether a plastic McDonald's fork or an out-of-ink ballpoint pen— could end up as art rather than in the junk drawer.
Repurposing found objects in art is nothing new. (Hello, Marcel Duchamp. Hello, outsider artists.) What distinguishes Caldwell and Whitehill's work is the clarity and balance of their mixed-media assemblages. Their joint exhibition, "Flotsam with a Jettisonian Influence," on view at the McGuffey Art Center, displays each artist's distinctly uncluttered response to salvaged elements and their shared sense of humor.
Of the two, Whitehill is the bigger jokester, often literally playing with words in his pieces, even as he plays on words in their titles. For instance, in the wall sculpture, "The Wordsmith Prattles On," he arranges dismantled typewriter parts on a background of collaged book pages and scatters crimped and shredded pages over them like confetti. But the composition is careful both in its geometry and palette, the white lettering on the black typewriter keys contrasting with the black print on the white book pages.
In several works, Murray focuses on abstract composition and the relationship of forms, e.g. the colorful "Three Circles, Three Halfs," but in many pieces a certain nostalgia surfaces, fueled by components like yellowed newspaper ads and 1950s-era linoleum flooring. In "The Greggwriter," Whitehill pays homage to the lost skill of shorthand by creating a steampunk-esque writing machine with a roller, reminiscent of an antique player piano's, studded with a spiral of fountain pen nibs.
Caldwell, for his part, is less concerned with producing meaning than with fostering appreciation for the materiality of found objects. His abstract pieces divorce their elements— keys, gears, marbles, etc.— from their original purpose to focus on their aesthetic qualities. Caldwell's "Linear B on Slate" features a sometimes-buckled quilt of corroded pennies encircled with lead, mounted on fractured slate that subtly echoes the oxidized and sulfated colors of the coins. His pièce de résistance, "Tapestry of Secrets," offers a curtain of keys, in which function is lost in a stunning mesh of colors and shapes.
With a wink and a nudge— and a lack of clutter— Whitehill and Caldwell prove anew that one person's trash is another's treasure.
Eric Caldwell and Murray Whitehill's exhibition, "Flotsam with a Jettisonian Influence," runs through October 30 at the McGuffey Art Center, 201 Second St. NW. 295-7973.

Caught On Surveillance: Man Assaults & Abducts Woman In NY!
"MTA Police Seeking Public's Help to Identify Man Wanted For Assaulting and Possibly Abducting Woman at Ronkonkoma Station The MTA Police Department is asking the public for help identifying a man witnesses say assaulted and abducted a woman at the LIRR's Ronkonkoma Station on Sunday, March 4, at approximately 7:40 a.m. In this surveillance video, the man police are seeking is seen knocking down a woman who had just exited a LIRR train. The two then exchanged words inside a shop before he forced her to leave the store. Once outside, he again knocked her down and dragged her off camera. According to witnesses, after the video ends, the man placed the victim over his shoulder and threw her in the back seat of a nearby car against her will. The suspect then drove away in the direction of the Long Island Expressway." Posted By http://www.PersistMuzik.com

For Andrew Bailey, coming in from the bullpen at Fenway Park is a special feeling. He'll experience that a lot more next season. New manager Bobby Valentine found his new man for the back end of the Boston bullpen yesterday when the Red Sox obtained the All-Star closer and outfielder Ryan Sweeney from the Oakland Athletics for outfielder Josh Reddick, infield prospect Miles Head and minor league pitcher Raul Alcantara.
For Andrew Bailey, coming in from the bullpen at Fenway Park is a special feeling.
He'll experience that a lot more next season.
New manager Bobby Valentine found his new man for the back end of the Boston bullpen yesterday when the Red Sox obtained the All-Star closer and outfielder Ryan Sweeney from the Oakland Athletics for outfielder Josh Reddick, infield prospect Miles Head and minor league pitcher Raul Alcantara.
In the deal, first reported by ESPN, Bailey gives the Red Sox a reliable ninth-inning guy to replace the departed Jonathan Papelbon, who signed a $50 million, four-year contract as a free agent with the Philadelphia Phillies in November.
The 27-year-old Bailey has three saves in four appearances at Fenway Park in his three major league seasons.
"The one that sticks out the most was my first save opportunity this year was against the Red Sox," Bailey said in a conference call. "I actually blew that save. From what I remember, there's nothing like the atmosphere of running into the game from the bullpen at Fenway Park."
A New Jersey native and offseason resident of Connecticut, Bailey is excited about coming back east.
He already knows Valentine, who lives in Stamford, Conn., and hosted several events for the pediatric cancer foundation of Bailey and former teammate Craig Breslow.
"Bobby and I are good friends," Bailey said. "It just kind of helps knowing someone going in."
Bailey — the 2009 AL Rookie of the Year, who made the All-Star team that season and again in 2010 — had been the subject of trade talk this offseason.
The right-hander went 0-4 with a 3.24 ERA and 24 saves in 41-2/3 innings and 42 appearances this year. He spent time on the disabled list for the second straight season, pitching for the first time in 2011 on May 29 after being sidelined with a strained right forearm.
"I'm feeling good," he said. "This is my first healthy offseason I've had since I've been in the big leagues."
In his career, he is 7-10 with a 2.07 ERA and 75 saves in 84 opportunities.
Bailey becomes the fourth key pitcher traded this month for the rebuilding A's, who dealt starter Trevor Cahill and reliever Breslow to the Arizona Diamondbacks on Dec. 9 and then sent left-handed starter Gio Gonzalez to Washington last Thursday.
"That organization is heading down a different road where they're trying to get younger and build for a future in San Jose," Bailey said.
Oakland general manager Billy Beane is retooling his roster for the future in hopes of the franchise getting the go ahead to build a new ballpark some 40 miles south in San Jose despite the San Francisco Giants owning the territorial rights to technology-rich Santa Clara County.
Beane and owner Lew Wolff have said they expect to hear soon from commissioner Bud Selig, and Beane said the unsettled stadium situation would affect his being able to sign his own free agents this winter.
The A's (74-88) haven't posted a winning record or earned a playoff berth since being swept in the 2006 AL Championship Series by Detroit.
The Red Sox missed the playoffs the past two years, but won the World Series in 2004 and 2007.
"I think every kid playing T-ball out there strives to pitch in the postseason and meaningful games in September and, ultimately, the World Series," Bailey said. "So I'm going to welcome that with open arms."
On Dec. 14, Boston traded for Houston closer Mark Melancon, who had 20 saves last year in 71 relief outings but may be a setup man for Bailey.
"We believe both are fully capable of (closing)," Red Sox general manager Ben Cherington said. "Bailey's been doing it for a little bit longer, so perhaps he goes in with the leg up."
Sweeney is in the mix for Boston's right field job now that J.D. Drew is a free agent. He's an outstanding fielder who can play all three spots. In six seasons, he has a .283 batting average after hitting .265 with one homer and 25 RBIs in 264 at-bats last season.
Reddick, who began last season at Triple-A Pawtucket before being promoted in late May, will look to fill a big void in Oakland's open outfield.
The 24-year-old Reddick batted .280 with seven homers and 28 RBIs in 87 games for Boston in 2011. He can play any outfield spot and likely will get immediate action for the A's, who already lost outfielders David DeJesus and Josh Willingham in free agency. Center fielder Coco Crisp isn't expected to return, either.
At last summer's trade deadline, the A's and Red Sox were near completion on a deal that would have sent Oakland right-hander Rich Harden to Boston for Triple-A first baseman Lars Anderson, but it fell through late because of Harden's lengthy list of injury issues.
Former Red Sox pitching coach Curt Young returned to the A's this offseason to work under manager Bob Melvin.

If you get up in the evening and want to change your look grab a mens (or boys) Volcom jacket to start rebuilding your wardrobe. The nice thing about all Volcom jackets is that they have thought about everything for you. They are either waterproof or water resistant in some form or another so you never have to be worried about a torrential downpour or if you are going to be cold. They all have zippered pockets so you don't lose your phone, keys or wallet and are made of stain and tear resistant fabric to last through your late night escapades. Volcom also pays attention to the small details by including an embroidered Volcom stone or logo that is the seal of authenticity on all Volcom mens jackets.

Fair Trade sales have skyrocketed to 70 times what they were a decade ago, but – here comes the bad news – Fair Traders are now suffering from their first serious food fight.
Fair trade practices have been especially helpful for coffee farmers around the world. (Photo credit: Bernard Pollack)
Fair Trade is the best-known and most successful retail trend of the last decade—the rise of the ethical consumer. Less-known, Fair Trade has also inspired the rise of ethical students and ethical citizens who want their university campuses, towns and cities to show support for ethical products from afar. It's important to get the background on this otherwise fairly encouraging story.
As of January 2012, Fair Trade USA will withdraw from the international Fair Trade organization. Going it alone, they seek to double US sales within three years by broadening certification standards to ease the way for larger and more corporate producers and retailers.
Many worry that this split within the international fair trade movement is an omen of impending stresses akin to those that have plagued Big Organic over the last decade.
But from my city food policy perch on the world, there are still many ways to work together to bolster the $6 billion a year-and-fast-expanding Fair Trade cause.
Fair Trade became an issue in city food policy as a result of the campaign – very popular in Europe, but still emerging across North America – to sign up Fair Trade Cities. When a city signs on, it boosts the democratic and citizen-based engagement with Fair Trade, protecting the movement from being swallowed up by pressures from retailers.
But before I get too far ahead of myself, let's put today's fair trade squabble in perspective by reviewing three of the spookier rules of alternative business economics. They help explain the meteoric rise of Fair Trade sales over the past five years and provide the back story for today's tensions.
No overnight successes
The first of the spooky rules is that overnight commercial successes are almost always preceded by at least 20 years of working into the wee hours of the night.
It doesn't feel that long ago to me, but it does date me to say that I used to hawk a dozen small bags of fair trade coffee a week back in the day of 1988. I'd pick them up at a church basement, then cart them over to alternative NOW Magazine, wending my way through a rabbit warren of desks to sell them.
At that very moment, unbeknownst to me, fair trade modernizers in the Netherlands were launching a program to actually market fair trade coffee—about the only food option in what was the fair trade category, mostly handmade crafts—through conventional food stores and coffee shops that people went to when they wanted to buy food and drinks—saving customers the hassle of making a special trip to a craft store or church basement that had a stash.
This sharp turn by fair traders who moved to up their retailing game was a response to the price collapse of food commodities from colonial export economies, a devastating collapse for smallholder food producers already living below the poverty line.
The price collapse resulted from International Monetary Fund (IMF) and World Bank insistence that loans to cover debts would only be granted to countries that abolished boards that gave scattered and diverse small farmers some ability to bargain collectively with food monopolies that dominated coffee, tea, sugar, spice and related sectors. The newly disorganized situation was worst for coffee, where millions of isolated small producers bargained against four major multinationals.
The fair trade connection became a lifeline to coffee producers, offering a link to commercial outlets that supported decent and stable prices. The old grassroots fair trade networks that had developed since the 1950s helped the brand-new commercial effort come out of the gate running. To make matters worse, the World Bank encouraged more coffee and chocolate to be grown in more areas of the world, thereby adding the curse of oversupply to the imbalance of power between producers and wholesalers.
Enter the second spooky rule of business economics – the law of unintended consequences.
As it turned out, World Bank and IMF insistence on privatization during the late-1980s was just a premonition of what would happen during the early 1990s when the Soviet Union collapsed and the cold war between Capitalism and Communism ended. Phrases such as new world order and the end of history became almost household phrases, and expressed the apocalyptic scale of coming changes. One by one, government-hosted institutions and regulations that upheld ethical behavior in public health, environmental and social equity realms were dismantled. These changes were demanded and enforced by the World Trade Organization, established in 1992, which for the first time in global trade history, exposed agricultural commodities to demands of free trade, privatization and deregulation – what came to be called the "American consensus."
As a result of this rapid and monumental shift in the architecture of the mixed economy (part private, part government), North Americans shoppers just entering their teen years during the early 1990s have not experienced many food shopping expeditions in their lifetimes when a government agency took responsibility for making sure the corporation didn't violate anti-trust laws, or made sure all inputs and possible toxins in a food product were labeled, or policed false advertising of food product claims, or ensured safe and equitable practices in the making of the food product. Such matters were not related to public policy, it was argued, but private choices and ethics.
What followed a short decade later is sometimes known as "blowback" or, in some quarters, getting bit in the ass.
Once new consumers figured out that ethics were no longer regulated by public policy, they made it their own business to become tough customers in ethical areas. This led to the rediscovery of boycotts—the international one against Nestlé is one of the more famous—and the invention of "buycotts," deliberate purchases of goods that were ethical. Especially in an Internet era when customer word of mouth was amplified many times, companies which didn't have a brand that bespoke ethics were suddenly in hotter water than they'd ever been when plodding governments regulated such matters.
Before the year 2000, few major or minor companies made a point of being known for their ethical claims. Business ethics was considered a laughable contradiction of terms just behind military intelligence, but no-one much cared, since ethical behavior was the business of governments, not corporations.
Since the year 2000, ethics is almost a core necessity of corporate branding, even from stores pitching the deepest discounts. Complain as we will about green-washing, this revolution of rising expectations around business ethics has been a game-changer, especially for fair trade products. The product range has expanded far beyond coffee (now including tea, spices, cacao and chocolate, bananas and more), and yearly sales have grown at double digit rates, about double the rate of products making no ethical claims.
Then came a third change.
Starting around 2005, the law of intended consequences hooked up with another spooky rule of alternative business—change happens at the margins—to bring fair trade goods right up to the entrance of the most mainstream shops.
It seems illogical—big changes in one area are supposed to come from big changes in another into—but changes at the margin catapulted Fair Trade into the Big Leagues.
Fair trade goods are mostly treats—habit-forming and slightly addictive, but not anything close to daily necessities. That very marginality puts treats in a special category where choice and pleasure are played up, and consequently where responsibility and guilt come along for the ride.
Bitter chocolate is an acquired and elite taste, but few acquire a taste preference for dark chocolate that comes courtesy of child labor and even slavery. Scandal is never further than a decent journalist away in such luxury trade sectors of the food economy.
Although less than ten companies—the likes of Kraft (which recently chowed down on Cadbury), Nestle, and Mars—control the chocolate, tea and coffee market, the sheer weight of their monopoly power and volume purchases exposes them to disturbances that smaller companies might avoid. Their environment is highly volatile to minor changes of weather or labor unrest, such that sustainability might even beckon like a safe harbor.
That's what happened in 2008. A combination of harsh Sahara winds and militant labor protests disrupted chocolate production and deliveries in Ghana and the Ivory Coast, source for the bulk of high-quality chocolate. In short order, according to detailed reports in Confectionary News and Food Navigator, two excellent trade e-newsletters, a virtual rogues' gallery of heavy hitter corporations lined up to sign on for the stability of long-term relationships with competent and knowledgeable producers. Spot markets where gluts of chocolate could be bought at the cheapest price were no longer reliable.
In 2008, Fair Trade sales shot up 75 per cent in Sweden, 43 per cent in the UK, 22 per cent in France and ten per cent in the US. They have never looked back since, despite the severe global economic recession. By 2010, European sales were at 70 times their 1999 levels—a success story of corporate and consumer change few government regs could match.
Over a million producers and some five million people benefit from Fair Trade sales. Fair trade guarantees a base minimum price to producers that cushions them when market gluts cause prices to fall. Fair Trade also sets aside a premium (in the range of 30-cents-a-tonne for cacao) that goes directly to community improvements such as schools and health clinics.
Security of markets, in turn, allowed producers to increase investments in their own technology and skills training, which has increased quality and yields. The common linking of organic and fair trade labels testifies to achievements in this area.
The Fair Trade relationship with producer co-ops has also been transformative, allowing once-powerless peasants to control some of their fate and food sovereignty through co-ops that now control half the voting power in international Fair Trade organizations—a relationship that would be unprecedented in dealings with conventional multinational corporations.
Once big-name processors signed on to Fair Trade, they quickly gained access to high volume retailers. By 2010, major retailers and chains accounted for most fair trade sales, overshadowing sales through alternative outlets.
Such successes can come with their own laws of unintended consequences. A major cost advantage of huge retailers derives from their ability to drive down producer prices in return for high-volume purchases. Aggregation is the power position, the very name of the game, in Big Retail.
Aggregation is not what co-ops of small producers—the very people Fair Trade was designed to serve, some 85 per cent of the world's farmers and peasants, and a third of the world's population—are in a position to offer.
With expectations of doubling sales to $2.6 billion by 2015, thereby hoping to double the amount of land and number of producers benefitting from fair trade prices, Fair Trade USA is leaving the international Fairtrade Labelling Organization, and will set up its own certification system. It's anticipated that new certification standards will open the doors to larger producers, many of whom hire laborers to grow coffee in plantations. Critics of the Fair Trade USA decision claim this move will weaken producer co-ops and compromise the smallholder traditions of harvesting coffee and cacao in diverse forests.
Canadian fair traders are staying with the international movement. Small farmer co-ops can meet volumes demanded by retailers, Mike Zelmer of Fair Trade Canada told me.
Zelmer looks forward to expanding Fair Trade sales in Canada, now at about $330 million (not bad for having a tenth of the US population) through bulk sales to supermarkets and Starbucks. But Zelmer also looks to collective sales through such places as the City of Vancouver and University of British Columbia, which have recently joined the ranks of Fair Trade Cities and Universities.
Though lagging far behind Europe, Canadian fair traders have signed up more than 11 towns and cities, including Vancouver, while Americans have signed up about 40, including San Francisco and Chicago. Though the demands on a Fair Trade City are quite modest—a base percentage of stores must offer Fair Trade offerings, and City Hall premises must feature Fair Trade options – a new equation is created that balances individual and corporate with citizen and public presence.
Occupy fair trade, some might say.

Teaching Secrets: 5 Ways to Make Co-teaching Work
Meet Jason. He's sociable, respects his teacher, and turns in his homework (most of the time). He also dreads the day he has to answer a question. He wishes he could fade into the background of school.
Teachers don't talk much about students like Jason. It's easy to think, "Well, he's a good kid, he sees the reading specialist in a small group, he will be just fine." But when teachers collaborate effectively, kids learn more.
This year, I've tested that idea, co-teaching a 7th grade reading class with our response-to-intervention reading specialist. I've found that with this set-up, students like Jason can advance more quickly.
Here are five lessons I've learned from our collaboration:
1) Trust is a must. It takes time, is forged in shared experiences, and is crucial to deepening and individualizing classroom instruction.
Don't try to change your colleague's teaching style or personality. Instead, embrace the positive impact that your co-teacher can have on your students, and compromise, blending your styles.
2) Recognize that things will go wrong. Stand by one another to work through challenges and failures.
Communicating feelings, thoughts, and ideas may make you feel vulnerable. However, it is the only way to get the maximum benefit of your co-teacher's opinions, ideas, and support.
3) Clarify role definitions. Make sure each co-teacher has a specific role. For example, I focus on content: planning curriculum, grading papers. Meanwhile, the reading specialist focuses on helping students adopt successful reading strategies: techniques, tools, and realizations that they can draw upon in our class and others.
4) Communicate and reflect. For my co-teacher and me, our workday is one long (really rich) conversation. We are constantly strategizing on-the-fly about adjustments to a lesson.
We challenge ourselves to analyze data from a variety of sourcesand to use those data as well as our own reflections to make changes and differentiate learning.
Our reflective conversations include these kinds of phrases: "This is what I am noticing ... ." "I am thinking about doing this ... ." "What do you think?" Reflective conversations must be honest; don't hide the truth from your co-teacher.
Since we started co-teaching, I am more aware of my RTI students' needs and their development over timebut also more attuned to the growth of all of my students.
5) Actually try it. It's easy to come up with excuses not to collaborate ("It will not work with our schedule ... I'm afraid of being judged ... "). Push those excuses aside, and start small. Begin with a conversation. Co-teach a single lesson together, setting specific roles for whom will teach what. See how it goes.
After reflecting on the lesson with your co-teacher, take the idea to your administrator. Co-teach another lesson and invite your administrator to observe, then open up a conversation about how this model could benefit your students. Talk through the logistics of making the co-teaching model successful at your school.
Walls make teachers feel safe. (This is my classroom, my space, my stuff ... .) As you'll discover, tearing down those metaphorical walls is scary.
But it is also worthwhile. Remember my student Jason? He has made outstanding progress this year. Working together, my colleague and I have developed a full picture of him as a learner, identifying the strategies that work best for him. He no longer needs additional support in a small-group settingand he often raises his hand to participate.
What tips do you have for co-teaching? How has collaboration improved learning in your classroom?

s3tots adds standard PAT and PMT tables to the transport stream per the iso spec. These tables are missing from the transport stream found in the TY data. s3tots normally determines the PID assignments for the audio and video streams from out-of-band information stored in the TY stream directly. Failing this, s3tots can still normally auto-detect the stream PID assignments, and does a better job at it than media players IMO.
When s3tots detects the PID assignments from the TY stream directly, you'll see a diagnostic of the form:
TY set video,audio pid: 7c0,7c1. Audio is AC3
Otherwise, when s3tots determines the PID assignments from the streams
themselves (or when they change) you'll see a diagnostic of the form:
Packet 76, audio pid now 22 (vid pid 21)
Audio is now MPEG
s3tots tracks and reports on continuity errors, discontinuity flags, and warped PCR timestamps. The continuity errors and discontinuity flags are detected per the transport stream standard, not in some ad hoc fashion. This detection allows you to see when your recording has some sort of transmission glitch that may or may not result in playback/conversion problems. Basically you are getting transport stream error checking ala tsreader built in to s3tots for free.
PCR timestamps are stored as 33 bit values which wrap every ~26 hours. In practice the PCR may wrap in any TY recording as the timestamp is allowed to start off as a large number for some broadcasts. I have not seen this happen often; I think it's common for the PCR to be reset between shows at least. s3tots is careful to allow the PCR to wrap cleanly, and to preserve the timestamps provided by the source. Nonetheless, many media players hiccup when they see the PCR timestamp wrap. I have experimental code (see WARP_PCR in s3tots.c) if you wish to have s3tots renumber the PCR timestamps to avoid this issue.

online discussion Reddit style
BLEND-ONLINE] Looking for private, Reddit-style vote up/down discussion tool
From: The EDUCAUSE Blended and Online Learning Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com] On Behalf Of Sharon Strauss
Sent: Friday, June 03, 2016 10:46 AM
To: email@example.com
Subject: Re: [BLEND-ONLINE] Looking for private, Reddit-style vote up/down discussion tool
Thanks for all the online and offline responses. A quick summary of where I am with this project, and the various solutions offered.
Piazza–Piazza will integrate with our LMS via LTI and we do have it. As far as I can tell, after some initial enthusiasm for it a few years ago, nobody here has been using. Thus, I cannot speak to the spam issue that Nina raised. Still, I looked at it and do not see any vote up/down option on it. It is structured more as a Q & A organizer. There is an option for professors to rate an answer as good or bad, but that it is different from a popular vote.
WordPress Theme or Plugin–I found a couple of vote up/down WordPress solutions. However, as far as I can tell, none are actively maintained. The most recent I saw is a couple of years old.
Google Moderator–This looks like it may have been just what we want, but Google retired the program last year. Currently you just get the message, "We've retired Google Moderator. The site is no longer available in any form, but you can get to data from past Moderator series through our "Download your Data" tool.
Brightspace–May work for those that have it, but we do not.
Canvas–Perhaps another area where it beats Moodle. However, we do not have it and I'm not sure we want to get it at this time.
Drupal–This might work! I did not see an up/down vote option with http://skill-tree.org, but it seems there are a few options. I'm looking into this further.
Commercial options–I got suggestions for commercial software such as http://crowdicity.com and https://www.uservoice.com/. Both seem like they could work, but I don't know if we have a budget for this.
FYI, I got more detail from the professor about the project. I learned he is not looking for a classroom solution. He is looking to lead a potentially sensitive and controversial campus-wise conversation. Thus, this might not be the best place to have posted. Still, maybe someone else on the list will also find this useful.
