Preschoolers Use Statistics to Understand Others
Children are natural psychologists. By the time they're in preschool, they understand that other people have desires, preferences, beliefs, and emotions. But how they learn this isn't clear. A new study published in Psychological Science, a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, finds that children figure out another person's preferences by using a topic you'd think they don't encounter until college: statistics.
In one experiment, children aged 3 and 4 saw a puppet named "Squirrel" remove five toys of the same type from a container full of toys and happily play with them. Across children, the toys that Squirrel removed were the same (for example, all five were blue flowers). What varied, however, were the contents of the container. For one-third of the children, 100 percent of the toys were the same type (so, in this example, all were blue flowers). For another third of the children, only 50 percent were that type (that is, half were blue flowers and half were red circles). Finally, for the last third of the children only 18 percent were of that type (that is, 82 percent were red circles). Later on, children were asked to give Squirrel a toy that he likes. The children were more likely to give Squirrel the blue flowers if he had selected them out of the container that had other toys in it.
More amazingly, the proportion of other toys mattered as well; they gave Squirrel the blue flowers more when the container included only 18 percent blue flowers, and slightly less often when the container had 50 percent blue flowers. When the container had 100 percent blue flowers, they gave him toys at random. That means the child inferred that the puppet liked blue flowers best if the sample of five toys didn't match the proportion of toys in the population (the container). This is a statistical phenomenon known as non-random sampling.
In another experiment, 18- to 24-month-olds also learned about the preferences of an adult experimenter from non-random sampling. They watched the adult choose five toys that were either 18 percent or 82 percent of the toys in a box. The adult played happily with the toy either way, but the toddler only concluded that the adult had a preference if they'd picked the toys from a box in which that toy was scarce.
Of course, statistical information isn't the only way children learn about the preferences of other people. Emotion and verbalization are also important—but this is a new cue that no one had identified before, says Tamar Kushnir of Cornell University. She carried out the study with Fei Xu of the University of California, Berkeley and Henry M. Wellman of the University of Michigan.
"Babies are amazing," says Kushnir. "Babies and children are like little scientists. Mostly they learn by observing and experiencing the world. Just let them do it. Later on, there will be time for formal instruction, but when they're really young, this sort of informal learning is critical."

SALISBURY, MD – The York College women's basketball team closed out their 2011-12 regular season with a 62-51 Capital Athletic Conference victory at Salisbury University on Saturday afternoon in Salisbury, MD.
The Spartans, who had the second seed in the upcoming CAC Tournament already locked up, improve to 21-4 overall and 14-2 in the CAC. The Sea Gulls, who will be the tournament's three seed, fall to 14-10 overall and 11-5 in the CAC.
York, much like they have over the last month and a half, got off to a great start as they began the game on a 16-5 run. Sophomore Kristen Haley opened the scoring with a lay up on York's first possession. After a Salisbury three pointer, fellow sophomore Kelsey Murphy drilled a three to give York a lead they would not relinquish the rest of the day.
The Sea Gulls trimmed York's lead to eight on a Cinthia Ruiz jumper at the 10:48 mark but York scored nine of the next 12 points of the game to push the lead to a half-high of 15 points at 29-14. The Spartan lead bounced between 12 and 14 points over the final four minutes of the half before York settled for the 33-21 halftime lead.
The Spartans continued to play well out of the break maintaining their lead in double digits. The Green and White pushed their advantage to a game-high 19 points on a Brittany Hicks three point with 10:22 remaining.
That's when the Sea Gulls started a spirited comeback. The Gulls fashioned a 12-1 run that covered just under five minutes as the once large York lead fell to a mere eight points with 5:43 left in the game.
York responded to the Salisbury charge with buckets from Haley and Hicks on consecutive possessions as the Spartan lead surged back to 12 with 3:43 remaining in the game. Salisbury would get back down to eight but York converted seven of eight from the free throw line over the final 1:11 of regulation to salt away the 11-point win.
The Spartans had four players reach double figures led by Hicks as the sophomore continues her late season roll. Hicks tallied 17 points and grabbed eight rebounds in the win. She was 6-for-13 from the floor including 1-of-3 from three while she was also 4-of-5 from the free throw line. Haley recorded her 10th double-double of the year as the forward had 13 points and a game-high 11 rebounds. Murphy tallied 11 points and three steals while sophomore point guard Aja Wallpher was the fourth Spartan in double figures with 10 points, five assists, two blocks and two steals in her 37 minutes of work. Senior April Sparkman contributed nine points and nine rebounds in her final regular season collegiate contest.
McGahagan and Ruiz teamed to pace the Sea Gulls as they each tallied 14 points. McGahagan added a team-high nine rebounds while she also had two assists. Anna Hackett was the third Gull in double figures with 10 points.
York shot 40.8% from the field and 35.7% (5-of-14) from three. The Spartans connected on 17-of-25 (68%) from the charity stripe in the victory. Salisbury shot 32.7% from the floor, 33% (3-for-9) from three and 16-for-20 (80%) from the free throw line.
The Spartans forced 18 Salisbury turnovers and the Green and White turned that into 18 points.
With the second seed in next week's tournament, the Spartans earn a first round bye for Tuesday night's opening round. York will then host the winner of the Salisbury University/Stevenson University contest on Thursday night at 7:00 pm at Charles Wolf Gymnasium.

We mentioned the Kristen Stewart (Twilight, Snow White and the Huntsmen) drama Equals opening this Friday, about a couple who falls in love as the result of a disease in a futuristic utopia that is devoid of feeling and emotion, and the tension it causes between them and their society. Co-starring with Stewart is Nicholas Hoult (Mad Max: Fury Road, X-Men: Apocalypse), who are led by director Drake Doremus (Like Crazy, Breathe In).
Also opening on the indie circuit this week is a new animated movie called Phantom Boy, which takes place in the 1940s-50s and follows a young boy with superpowers who helps a wheelchair-bound policeman in his efforts to take down a notorious mob boss. The film comes from Oscar-nominated filmmakers Loup Felicioli & Alain Gagnol (A Cat in Paris) and stars French actors Edouard Baer (Chicken with Plums), Jean-Pierre Marielle (Coup de torchon, The DaVinci Code), and Audrey Tautou (A Very Long Engagement, Amelie).
Finally on the indie film circuit for this week is a new comedy called Undrafted Continue reading

Yes, I was also referring to a complete lock up requiring a reboot rather than a mouse no longer working, but I do get the complete lock up by moving the mouse (actually rotating the trackball) at the wrong time.

Auto Detailing Raleigh NCRaleigh Mobile Detail offers paint correction and auto detailing services for all vehicle types. We use state of the art equipment and industry leading products to offer paint correction, exterior detailing, and interior detailing treatments that rival the best in the business. If you are looking for a car detailing service in Raleigh, NC your search ends hear. We offer car detailing, truck detailing, and motorcycle detailing. Located in Raleigh, NC, we provide service to Chapel Hill, Durham, Knightdale, Garner, Apex, Cary, and Holly Springs. We are a mobile detailing service, we come to you.
What is auto detailing?
The short answer is to take a vehicle from its current condition and bring it back to a showroom like condition. This is thorough a cleaning process, not a repair process. There are some conditions where it is either beyond our skill set or needs replacement.
Cleaning around the emblems, the gas cap, the rocker panels, the seat belts, vents, cubby holes, the foot pedals, the stitching of the steering wheel, you get the point. We have a critical eye and treat every car as though it were our own and our own money being spent.http://raleighmobiledetail.com/
There is no standard set within the industry of what a detail actually entails. At Raleigh Mobile Detail, we interpret it to bring a car back to showroom like condition. Now depending on the current condition of the individual vehicle determines the steps necessary to achieve our goal.
How old is the vehicle?
How often does it get washed?
What methods are used for the washes?
Where is vehicle stored, inside or outside?
When it is outside, what are the conditions (under a tree, exposed to the sun)?
Most all vehicles at the least need a thorough washing, usually a clay bar treatment, followed with protection either a wax, sealant or both. The clay bar treatment is a crucial part of the process, as it grabs anything protruding from the surface. Over-spray, metal particles, and fallout are removed to give your surface a super slick feel, it also ensures any LSP (last step products) adhere properly to the appropriate surface with no interference.
Your paint may suffer from paint imperfections that steal the brilliance and gloss we seek. The most common issues are swirls, holograms and scratches. Swirls are commonly instilled by improper washing and drying techniques. Holograms are usually from a high speed polisher being improperly used or applying wax or polish on a hot surface. Scratches come from a multitude of reasons, from when you enter your vehicle with your keys in hand or something rubbing against the car.
Paint correction is required to address these issues as well as paint transfer. Using a combination of compounds, polishes, and orbital machines we will remove the imperfections and instill an incredible reflective shine to your paint.

WEDNESDAY, May 6, 2009 (HealthDay News) -- Three genes linked to the spread of breast cancer to the brain have been identified by U.S. researchers, who say the finding could help lead to new treatments.
The spread, or metastasis, of breast cancer to the brain typically occurs years after a breast tumor has been removed. Experts say this suggests that the cancer cells initially lack the ability to penetrate the blood-brain barrier, which prevents the entry of circulating cells and regulates the transport of molecules into the brain tissue.
The new study found that two genes, COX2 and HB-EGF, are prime breast cancer cells for entrance into the brain. Another gene, ST6GALNAC5 -- which is normally active only in brain tissue -- causes a chemical reaction that creates a coating on the surface of breast cancer cells that enhances their ability to breach the blood-brain barrier.
"Our results draw attention to the role of the cell surface coating as a previously unrecognized participant in brain metastasis, and to the possibility of using drugs to disrupt its interactions," Joan Massague, chair of the Cancer Biology and Genetics Program at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City and a Howard Hughes Medical Institute investigator, said in a news release from the cancer center.
The study appears online in the journal Nature.
Previous research found that COX2 and HB-EGF are involved in the spread of breast cancer to the lungs. The new finding, that the genes also play a role in its spread to the brain, might explain the association of brain and lung relapse in breast cancer patients, the researchers said.

Damien Bona earned a law degree from New York University in 1980 but spent only two years practicing law.
As he told the Los Angeles Times in 1986, "I had to choose between a job and an obsession. I chose the obsession."
Bona's obsession was the Academy Awards and all of the attendant hoopla, campaigning, gaffes and backstage controversies surrounding Hollywood's annual Big Night, dating to the first Oscar ceremony — a banquet at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel in 1929.
Bona, coauthor of the 1986 book "Inside Oscar: The Unofficial History of the Academy Awards" and sole author of a 2002 sequel, died Jan. 29 at a hospital in New York, 15 days after sudden cardiac arrest, said Neil Cohen, his brother-in-law. He was 56.
In 1982, Bona and his former Columbia University classmate Mason Wiley began doing their extensive research for "Inside Oscar," an encyclopedic reference book that New York Times film critic Vincent Canby called "a giddy social history of our place and time."
Bona and Wiley did much of their digging at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences library in Beverly Hills, where they uncovered a treasure trove of Oscar facts.
Take the 1968 Oscar ceremony, which was delayed for two days because of the assassination of the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
The Academy that year, the authors wrote, "wasn't completely joining the newer generation; glamour was too valuable a Hollywood asset to surrender to the latest fashion trends. Once again, a dress code was sent out to ceremony participants."
"Women were asked to forget what a sensation Julie Christie had created last year in a miniskirt and dress in long gowns. Men were reminded that this was a white-tie affair and that turtleneck sweaters, beads, beards, and unkempt hair were frowned upon."
When director Alfred Hitchcock stepped to the microphone to receive the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award — "the only Oscar he'd ever get," the authors noted — his acceptance speech was brief: "Thank you … very much."
To which emcee Bob Hope quipped, "He ad-libs a lot, doesn't he?"
In the 1986 Times interview, Bona said he and Wiley "started out thinking we would do a funny book on the Oscars. We were going to do things like follow Sammy Davis Jr.'s history at the Oscars to show what the fashion fads were those years. We were going to reprint Greer Garson's entire speech," generally considered the longest ever, "from the 1942 awards." But, Bona said, their publisher convinced them to take their research a little more seriously.
Continuing their digging, they sailed past their original target publication date of November 1982 and finally delivered their manuscript two years later. Then, to make the book as current as possible, they updated it with information on the 1985 ceremony.
"Inside Oscar" later was updated a number of times. And after Wiley died in 1994, Bona went on to write the sequel, "Inside Oscar 2," which covered the awards from 1995 through 2000.
"He took movies very seriously but also had a good sense of fun about them," Cohen said.
Indeed, Bona wrote two other books: "Opening Shots: The Unusual, Unexpected, Potentially Career Threatening First Roles That Launched the Careers of 70 Hollywood Stars" (1994) and "Starring John Wayne as Genghis Kahn: Hollywood's All-Time Worst Casting Blunders" (1996).
Come Oscar time, Bona was often asked by the media to offer his perspective on the awards.
Writer-director Bill Condon, who won an Oscar in 1999 for his screenplay for "Gods and Monsters," also tapped Bona as a consultant when Condon co-produced the 2009 Oscar ceremony.
"Damien simply knew more about the history of the awards than anybody I ever met," said Condon, who was friends with Bona at Columbia University. "We'd bounce ideas for the show off him. He'd sometimes point out something similar had been done 28 years ago; he had that type of knowledge of it."
Bona was born March 18, 1955, in Sharon, Conn., and grew up in New Milford. In 1977, he received a bachelor's degree in English from Columbia University, where he served as film critic on the campus newspaper.
He practiced business law in Manhattan for two years before resigning and heading to Los Angeles to research the Oscars.
As Cohen said, "He wrote the book and never looked back."
Bona is survived by his mother, Alma; his longtime companion, Ralph Peña; and his sister, Amy Bona.

The money pouring into the stock market, as the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 Index rally to five-year highs, does not seem to be occurring at the expense of fixed-income investments, bond dealer Bill Gross told CNBC's "Squawk Box" on Wednesday.
Gross, founder of Pimco, which also has stock funds, said he thinks the stock inflows are coming from money market funds, capital gains and delayed dividend payments from last year "but not from the bond market at the moment."
He added that he's bullish on equities. "We think the market can go up 5 or 6 percent, and we know it's done that already in the month of January."

Most of the brides saw results in as little as two weeks.
Calories That Won't Make You Sweat
Planning a wedding can be stressful, which is why BistroMD offers brides a stress-free way to diet. To lose weight for your wedding, we recommend eating a diet with foods that contain leaner quality protein. This includes chicken, fish, and lean beef. We also recommend that busy brides-to-be have a good dose of fiber. Fiber is found in foods like fruits, vegetables, beans, and grains.
Fiber is special because it is a string of sugar molecules that can pass through our bodies without being metabolized. Fiber helps us get full, without that "full" feeling, and it prevents us from overeating. For their wedding diet, the brides featured in People magazine were given daily diets that consisted of foods that contained leaner quality protein, and healthy servings of fiber. These foods were also healthy sources of quality carbohydrates. The food in their diets helped the brides build leaner muscle mass, and helped them control their cravings. All of their meals added up to about 1,600 calories a day, similar to the calorie intake given to clients in every BistroMD meal plan. This includes breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks in-between meals.

Ira Bergman, MD, PhD
Chief, Division of
Child Neurology
Residency Program
Miya Asato, MD
Program Director,
Disabilities Residency
Associate Director,
Child Neurology
Residency Program
Dear Candidate,
Thank you for your interest in the Child Neurology Residency at UPMC Children's Hospital of Pittsburgh, ranked among the top children's hospitals in the country by U.S.News & World Report. We are proud to offer our five-year joint program with the Department of Pediatrics. We hope that you have the opportunity to visit and get to know our program.
Let me take this opportunity to highlight key elements:
Tradition: The Division of Child Neurology was established at Children's Hospital in 1972 and began training its first resident in 1974 under the leadership of Michael J. Painter, MD, and Patricia K. Crumrine, MD. I joined the division in 1979 and Rajiv Varma, MD, director of Clinical Services, started his child neurology residency in the division in 1980. Miya Asato, MD, started her child neurology residency in the division in 1999 and is now director of the NDD residency and associate program director of the Child Neurology Residency Program. We currently have 21 full-time physician faculty, 11 neurology or neurodevelopmental disability residents, 8 pediatric residents in the categorical CN or NDD program, one electrophysiology fellow, two research PhD faculty members with independent basic science lab programs, nine nurse practitioners/physician assistants, a genetic counselor, twelve nurses, a social worker, a psychologist, a research nurse, a division manager, a residency coordinator and numerous support staff. The division has a long tradition of excellence maintained by exceptional continuity of leadership and staff. The traditional values of this program include total commitment to patient care, love of the intellectual community whether learning or teaching, scholarship, and respect for our patients, students, colleagues, and each other.
There is a strong family feel to the division, which is evident as we bump into each other in small groups around the hospital or when current and past members gather in large groups at neurology meetings.
Back to top
Patients: The greatest strength of the program is the large and diverse patient population that it treats. Children's is the only children's hospital in the region, serving 3.5 million people and providing envelope-stretching care in every medical and surgical specialty. The intensive care units — Neonatal, Pediatric, and Cardiac — are large and busy. The University of Pittsburgh is known internationally for its care in transplant, oncology, and neurosurgery. As a child neurology resident, you will care for every type of primary neurological disease and every neurological complication of systemic disease. I guarantee that when you graduate from this program, you will be comfortable addressing any patient who comes to your office and consulting on any patient, no matter how sick, in the hospital. You won't always know the answer but you will know how to approach and think about the problem.
Faculty support: The program will support you. Unquestionably the greatest contributor to your education is yourself — your curiosity, interests, reading, researching, discussing, "googling" and thinking — but the faculty will always be present to help, guide and nurture. We will stand with you and take responsibility for the patients. We appreciate your skills, ambitions, hard work and care and hope to share our love of children, families, medicine and neurology with you. We are always available to discuss immediate problems, long-term goals and the wonders of child neurology.
Teaching program: The teaching and clinical program is structured and comprehensive. Neurology residency will begin with 3 weeks of didactic sessions to prepare you for your role as a specialist, and then 9 months doing various rotations in adult neurology. Two of these months will be clinical electives. The nervous system is more clearly defined in the mature organism, and this year of experience will teach you to recognize the modular elements of the nervous system as they function and malfunction in adult humans. Two months of the first year will be devoted to research. You will have the opportunity to choose 4 or 8 week blocks in either clinical or lab research or one of each. The next two years will consist of approximately 10 months leading the inpatient child neurology team, inpatient consult service and outpatient and emergency room service, and approximately 14 months of elective time. You will see the nervous system as it matures from fetal to adult life. Metamorphosis will unfold in front of your trained eyes.
Electives are available in most neurological subspecialties and are exceptionally strong: neuroradiology, EEG, EMG, epilepsy, muscle and peripheral nerve, movement disorders, stroke, neurosurgery, physical medicine and rehabilitation, psychiatry, neuro-ophthalmology, neuro-otology, neuropathology, neuro-oncology, sleep medicine, genetics and developmental medicine. The Child Neurology Division has specialized programs in epilepsy, headache, pseudotumor cerebri, ketogenic diet, metabolic and mitochondrial disease, tuberous sclerosis, neurofibromatosis, Fragile X syndrome, neuro-genetics, Tourette's syndrome and movement disorders, autoimmune CNS disease, stroke, neonatal neurology, muscular dystrophy and neuromuscular disease. We are one of seven national centers with a program in neurodevelopmental disabilities and have a specialized center for autism. There are scheduled educational sessions each day of the week and one day featuring the clinical conference in child neurology. This conference presents a current patient with a difficult problem to the entire faculty for analysis and is a superb teaching opportunity. The program is large, with many faculty members eager to teach and many residents with whom to share experiences and call. We believe in shared governance among the faculty and the residents. All educational and resident decisions are made by the education committee which consists of several faculty members and a resident elected by the resident group. The resident has an equal voice and participates in all decisions which are generally made by consensus. The growth and well-being of our residents is one of our core missions.
Research: UPMC is one of the great academic institutions in the United States. Almost every clinical program is outstanding and on the cutting edge of medical diagnosis and therapy. The library is supported by millions of dollars in federal grants each year and puts every journal, book, protocol and database on your computer for immediate access at no cost. The university houses an enormous amount and variety of top-tier basic and clinical research in every imaginable field and is generous in supporting young investigators. If you want to pursue research, you will find a scientifically exciting niche here and the university will support you. The university and our program will provide you with every opportunity to grow intellectually, scientifically and clinically. You will choose the direction but we will help with the means. You will begin research rotations in your first year and then can choose to continue research projects during elective time in the second and third years.
Location: Finally, let's discuss the city. Pittsburgh has small-town virtues with some big-city advantages. If you have a family, this is a wonderful place to raise children. There are beautiful neighborhoods, lovely parks, excellent day care, good schools, and special programs in music, art, and sports for children. More subtly, family is the major value here and you will quickly find a community of young parents who want to share the experience with you. If you are single, the medical center, business, and legal communities are vibrant and filled with bright, intellectual, and ambitious young people like yourself. The faculty, residents and students at the medical center are an incredibly rich mixture of people from all over the world and every social background. The city has major league sports teams and world-class theater, art, and music. The city is filled with people of every age jogging, biking, paddling, and playing basketball, racquetball, squash, tennis, golf, and every other sport. In 2017, Pittsburgh ranked #8 on CBRE's list of tech talent momentum market. Millennials accounted for 25.3 percent of Pittsburgh's urban population, the second-largest concentration of the markets in the report. The report stated: "Pittsburgh, the city of three rivers, now has a trifecta of top tech talent, a growing base of millennials, and a strong and vibrant commercial real estate market, which is now home to a number of powerhouse tech companies as well as smaller start-ups gaining national recognition."
One of our major missions and passions is education. We are thrilled to meet the next generation of child neurologists and hope to share experiences with you. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

text: hi again all, I have one simple stupid question: How do i run Fluent on a Beowulf2(Scyld) cluster ? i dont use rsh, i use bpsh. I have tried the different solutions that are described in the Fluent manual, i even made a symlink from beompi.so to fluent_vmpi. (Fluent vendor shipped mpi). Do i NEED to be able to run rsh to the nodes to run Fluent on a B2 cluster ? or can the beompi spawn processes to the nodes by it self ? Disclamer: I laid my eyes on Fluent for the first time this afternoon... Once again, sorry if i have missed something very obvius, if there is any docs regarding this other than the fluent manual, please point me there.

There's nothing more fulfilling than having something to proudly call your own. In fact, part of the reason people are keen to embrace the tiny house movement is the freedom to close in on the finer details and create something exquisite.
Which is why we're always eager to highlight custom-made designs. Take Elise and Clara's 31-foot (9.43-meter) Goose-Neck tiny house on wheels, for example. Built on a Gooseneck trailer, this lovely dwelling is the mastermind of Fort Collins, Colorado-based MitchCraft Tiny Homes.
Want to take a peek at the final product? Then let's go:
The exterior contrasts different wooden finishes and green hues to create a standout aesthetic.
From the back, you can get an idea of how different-sized windows have been incorporated on this wheeled abode. Along with providing some much-needed natural lighting, these windows also add an interesting geometric dimension to the overall design.
A simple, but effective touch - an outside lighting fixture quietly makes a bright appearance by the modern teal-colored door.
As you're about to see, the open-plan interiors maximize the Goose-Neck's space to its fullest potential.
Right at the corner, by the fridge, you'll find a living area, dining room and work station. Shelves keep all clutter at bay, while an artsy decor gives this area a homely feel.
From this angle, you can see how efficiently the couch has been laid against the neighboring kitchen.
Blue cabinetry with rustic grey counters are the winning feature of the fully-furnished kitchen itself.
On the other side, a nifty staircase with multiple drawers leads us into the sleeping loft.
The slanted wooden ceiling ensures there's plenty of head space for the upper-level sleepers.
Back downstairs, where you may have noticed another series of steps and a vibrantly striped curtain. The former , which evidently enhances the home's storage capability, leads to the second bedroom. As for the latter - that is the entryway to the Goose-Neck's bathroom.
A rustic sink and stylish decorative elements give a hint of elegance to the bathroom's vanity.
A full-size shower and composting toilet have been fitted in this compact room. Right by the door too - how's that for efficiency?
Finally, we reach the corner bedroom, where a spacious bed and two bedside tables have been fitted with precision. The carpeted flooring is a nice contrast to the other rooms, giving this area a special personalized touch of its own.
It's evident that MitchCraft Tiny Homes went above and beyond when it comes to creating something unique and functional. A combination of clean and rustic elements definitely make this tiny home a custom-made work of marvel.

Hobbit The One Ring Earrings
Double the Precious
- One One Ring? How about two?
- Keep these beauties away from Mount Doom
- Don't go murdering your cousin to get them
All of the ring bearers in Tolkien's books are dudes. Have you noticed that? We certainly have and we think it is high time to share the love with the ladies. Finally, it is your turn to have the awesome responsibility of bearing the ring. After all, if we can handle the emotional rollercoaster of pregnancy and childbirth, we can carry a silly ring to a volcano and throw it in. No probs.
What better way to hide your Precious from your enemies than to create an exact replica and wear them as earrings? After all, if you're wearing multiple One Rings, how would anyone know which one was the One? Beware though, prolonged wearing may turn you into a balding, shriveled up little creature with nasty teeth. Better take these babies off before bed.
Product Specifications
- Replicas of the One Ring from The Hobbit & Lord of the Rings
- Feature inscription seen in the feature films
- Material: Stainless steel with 14k gold plating
- Clasp: Hinged
- Dimensions: 3/4" diameter
For our customers with nickel allergies: The One Ring Earrings are made from stainless steel which does contain nickel. They are gold plated, which will protect skin from the nickel for the life of the plating.

Very cool. This is a timely post for me as my workplace is finally promoting the place of Design in the early stages of product development. We have previously had a heavy focus on the Engineering side of things, which has certainly worked well – now something new is required.
How important is Innovation to your business?
The cultural and social aspects in this post are very similar to the thoughts in 'Sketching User Experiences' which I am half way through.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts,

For lawyers in private practice, corporate counsel, businesses, organizations, and government, we have a powerful subscriber edition built around our fully explorable law practice problem solving environment and intellectual capital system, Laugment.TM
It's an advanced lawyer augmentation system.
Laugment provides advanced, easy-to-use law practice thinking architecture via your desktop or handheld device browser.
As of November 2018, Laugment knew 336,000 words and phrases. Because they are interconnected by 1,418,000 smart relationships, Laugment functions as an intellectual network extending your own mind. It also serves as a dynamic semantically-powered gateway to the best of the larger legal Web. If you don't have scores of dedicated knowledge management lawyers working on your behalf -- or, frankly, even if you do -- you need Laugment.
As a lawyer, you need an advanced lawyer-built law practice knowledge assistant / electronic mentor in myriad ways in your daily practice. But until Laugment came on the scene, the Legal Web had no semantic "brain" to make it more useful to practicing lawyers. The empty search box can't do what Laugment can do - make your most valuable asset -- your legal mind -- sharper, quicker, and more creative than ever. How? By functioning as an "intellectual prosthesis" magnifying your law practice mind through years of law practice modeling and legal transactive memory effects. Here's what others have said.
If you're a client, if you hire outside counsel, let's talk about how we can mutually support your law firms' step up to 21st century-style law practice.
Call us or ask us to call you.
Disclaimer: Laugment is not intended to substitute for a lawyer but rather to magnify the powers of smart people and improve the lawyering process.
Special Note:
This search currently searches for pages that contain the a selected judge's first and last names (anywhere on the page). Judges, like others, may be referred to by first and last name alone or by any variants, such as including middle initial, or complete middle name.

It did not take long for LeBron James to upstage Carmelo Anthony again.
A day after Anthony officially informed the Knicks that he would as expected opt out of his contract, James' agent Rich Paul announced that James would opt of his with the Heat, immediately returning him to his place as the NBA's most coveted free agent.
That also makes him the object of the Rockets' fondest desires, long after they began preparing their pitch just in case they got the chance.
The Rockets do also have legitimate interest in Anthony. Unlike last season when they focused all their attention on the pursuit of Dwight Howard, they would chase James and Anthony in the hopes of landing one to be their third star. But they will hope to get James to leave Miami with the same appeal that drew him there in the first place.
James signed with the Heat to join forces with Dwyane Wade and Chris Bosh. The Rockets will hope to convince him to jump to Houston to play with James Harden and Dwight Howard.
While Wade and to a lesser degree Bosh have shown the wear of four-consecutive trips to the NBA Finals, Harden was named to the All NBA first team and Howard to the All NBA second-team. And unlike the Heat when James reached The Decision, the Rockets would be able to keep much more of the nucleus of their 54-win team.
To create cap room for James – whose max contract is not as large as Anthony's — the Rockets would have to move Omer Asik and Jeremy Lin without taking back comparable contracts. They would likely also have to move another player or two. But in addition to retaining Howard and Harden, they would be able to re-sign Chandler Parsons, would have point guard Pat Beverley and likely forward Terrence Jones.
With Kevin McHale's three championships as a player, the Rockets can even offer a version of Pat Riley's pitch to James four years ago when Riley dropped his championship rings on the table.
James has been clear that he will seek nothing more than his best chance to win titles and while the Heat with James went to The Finals in four-consecutive years, the Rockets have not escaped the first round. James' decision to opt out of his contract's remaining $42.7 million over two years does not mean James has decided to leave the Heat. He has, however, turned up the pressure to bolster the roster around him.
That will not be easy given the chunks of salary cap he, Bosh and Wade are certain to require. But despite losing to the Spurs in five games, they don't need much. They also could have the homecourt advantage that would come with James knowing what can be done with the Heat.
That might make Miami the favorites, but every team would love to make a pitch, with the Bulls, Mavericks and Lakers joining the Rockets as teams with clear paths to the cap room needed.
Having the desire to sign James and a way to pay him is a long way from getting it done. But on Tuesday, one week before teams may begin making their pitches, James took the necessary first step.

At wine auctioneer Acker Merrall & Condit's last sale of 2012, Bordeaux wines represented 18 of the top 25 lots. The Bordeaux best-sellers included chateaux Lafite, Petrus, Margaux, Mouton, Haut Brion, and Latour. Burgundy wines made up the remainder of the top 25.
The top selling item was a case of 1982 Lafite that sold for $34,440, followed by eight bottles of 1982 Petrus which sold for $27,060. The fifth entry on the best seller list was a 2009 Petrus, which, according to the auctioneer, was "perhaps a trend heading into 2013." The 2009 Petrus is, in other words, shaping up to be the huge-in-demand vintage with collectors – expect more action next year.
It's perhaps not surprising that the top two sellers this year were the 1982 Bordeaux. You may recall our September issue of Penta, when major wine collector Tom Ryder described his ahead-of-the-rush stash of '82 Bordeaux bottles he acquired before there was such thing as a fine wine index. He later sold the "too expensive to drink" bottles and donated the proceeds to help Hurricane Katrina relief efforts, deciding finally that prices for Bordeaux had become too overheated. For those still nostalgic for the good old days when bottles were to be had at still reasonable prices, The New York Times earlier ran a fun piece on the legend of the '82 Bordeaux – and what the vintage tastes like 30 years later.
Acker Merrall & Condit, a leader in the fine and rare wine market, had revenues of $83.3 million for the year ending December. The auctioneer reports that 40% of total sales was red Bordeaux, down nearly 10% from last year as sales of Burgundy, California, Champagne, and Italy inched up. The auctioneer's top lot of the year was actually an assortment of 1997 to 2006 vintages from the Burgundy estate, Domaine de la Romanee-Conti (DRC); the collection of DRC vintages sold for $353,231. So no surprise, perhaps, that Acker's CEO John Kapon calls the vineyard "the world's most important producer."
The view from Sotheby's wine department backs up Kapon's assertion. Three of the top lots at their last New York wine sale earlier this month were also DRCs. The leading sale of 6 bottles of 1995 Romanee-Conti sold for $79,625, nearly $20,000 more than the high end of Sothebys' estimate.
So, take a seat near the fire, and close out the year with something fine and ruby-red.

"THE DAUGHTERS OF THE SEA" (Oct, 1923)
I wonder what kind of "comfort and entertainment" the provided to "seaman strangers"…
By LAWRENCE Wm. PEDROSE
FOR the purpose of making more comfortable and pleasant the hours spent in their home ports by the masters, mates, and pilots of the Pacific, and developing radio broadcasting to their ships while at sea, wives, daughters, and sweethearts of manners living at Seattle have formed an organization called the "Daughters of the Sea."
The Daughters of the Sea plan to bring the home closer to the ship, and the radio will be their chief means toward that end. The club has undertaken the fitting up of quarters on the top floor of one of the city's tall buildings, and is furnishing them with a library, comfortable chairs, smoking accessories, and marine glasses, so that seafarers may watch from the windows the ships making and leaving port.
A powerful radio sending and receiving apparatus is to be installed on the roof of the building, and entertainments, concerts, etc., held in the club rooms will be broadcast to the ships at sea. The personnel of vessels in any storm area will be cheered by the voices of loved ones at home. A practical service also will be maintained; the location of all ships from the home port will be recorded from day to day. The plans also include the entertainment of visiting captains from other ports of the world. There will be a committee supplying all arriving ships with flowers, and seamen strangers will be provided with comfort and entertainment.
One of the chief duties of members of the new organization is to see to it that every captain has in his ship's quarters the photographs of those dearest to him. Another obligation on the part of members is that of planning pleasant surprises in the homes of mariners when they return from voyages. Eventually, it is expected, the Daughters of the Sea will extend their work to all countries by establishing branch chapters.

VERGENNES — Addison Northwest Supervisory Union elementary school boards are looking at spending increases of between 4.4 and 5.8 percent for the 2006-2007 school year. Next month those boards are expected to approve those spending plans for voter consideration on Town Meeting Day.
The Ferrisburgh Central School board is looking at the highest increase, a 5.8 percent hike to about $2.64 million.

MIDDLEBURY — The Counseling Service of Addison County (CSAC) is closing in on a $650,000 fund-raising goal as part of a $2.1 million plan to dramatically expand and renovate its mental health facilities in Middlebury.
As of last Thursday, CSAC had raised $491,000 during what had been the "silent phase" of its fund drive, launched more than a year ago. The agency received 125 contributions from area businesses and individuals, some of them in excess of $25,000.
"I'm just thrilled at what we've been able to do so far with this capital campaign," said CSAC Executive Director Robert Thorn. "This was a huge goal for us, and I'm amazed at the response from the community."
By ANDY KIRKALDY
VERGENNES — Vergennes Alderman Michael Sullivan, who served as the first superintendent of the Vergennes-Panton Water District for 34 years, died of an apparent heart attack at his Monkton Road home on Christmas Eve.
Sullivan, 61, was known as a leader and past Commander of the Vergennes American Legion Post 14, a Past Grand Knight of the Knights of Columbus, an architect of the effort to bring safe water to the city in the early 1970s, a conservationist, and as an outspoken city council member who was pondering a run for mayor in March.
Despite his often contrary and at times long-winded political opinions, Vergennes Mayor April Jin said Sullivan's underlying good-heartedness made him popular on the city council as well as in the Vergennes area.

Remnant Data
From ForensicsWiki
Remnant data is data that can be recovered from magnetic media after new information has been written to that media. Although remnant data has been recovered from magnetic tapes and floppy disks, there is no credible report that has been published in the open literature that remnant data can be recovered from modern hard drives.

Frittelle di Capellini with Tomato, Mushroom, & Mozzarella
Don't you just love Jamie Oliver? Let's face it, apart from the fact that he's a Brit, lovely, attractive, down-to-earth, compassionate, a family guy and all around fun-loving man, the guy's into food. I just picked up Jamie's Italy from the library today and was immediately inspired to make this frittelle di Capellini (fritelle di Spaghetti in the cookbook).
The basic recipe involves cooked capellini (or spaghetti), that is mixed with beaten egg, garlic, and in this case, chopped basil, grated Cacio di Bosco al Tartufo, salt and pepper, and red pepper flakes. You cut the stringy pasta into 3" pieces, mix it with the eggy mixture, and fry it like a pancake in olive oil.
I topped this soft on the inside/crispy on the outside savory pancake with roasted tomato slices and mushrooms, basted with an olive oil-balsamic vinegar mix, and topped the tower with a little fresh mozzarella and a dab of pesto.
Easy, fantastic tasting, and a little different, this made a wonderful summertime meal!

Exclusive Periodic Table of Elements Blanket
Periodic Table of Elements Blanket
- It's the Periodic Table of Elements in blanket form!
- Really warm to keep you toasty
- You'll be the new element: comfortable-ium
Periodically, our offices get quite cold. And when we decided to do something about it, our office Sherlock said, "Elemental, dear Timmy. Use a blanket." But not any blanket would do. So, we had this Periodic Table of Elements Blanket made. It helps us remember all our favorite elements, while keeping our bodies warm.
We love our Periodic Table of Elements Blanket. It's a noble way to stay toasty. Hey and if you want, you can use it as decoration. It would make a wicked wall hanging or perhaps a metal (Alkali or Alkaline earth) decoration to put on top of Mendeleev's table. The Periodic Table of Elements Blanket is a great way to wrap yourself up in science.
Product Specifications
- If you like the elements and not being cold, this is the blanket for you!
- Beautiful, old fashioned-looking Periodic Table on a very warm blanket
- Materials: 100% Cotton
- Care Instructions:
- Machine wash warm
- Tumble dry warm
- Cool iron
- Do not bleach
- Do not dry clean
- Made in China
- Dimensions: approx. 47" x 63"

I'm in agreement with you Bon Echo. I have no desire to be anything other than a player here. It would be great if there were other OCNA players, but I don't think it will ever happen.
Even Garmin's site did not go over locally, and there is only one other Waymarker that may not be active anymore.
As for Benchmarking, this has sparked my interest and I have been out looking for a few that have not been recovered in 60 years or more. I don't have that many BM's to list, but it's not my intent to set the world on fire, but truthfully I wanted something different that I can't get on another listing service. I did manage to come up with a few logging codes, and thought that was a neat idea.
I have been listing some historical markers here as virtuals and traditionals. I'm not an average Waymarker, I don't play it as a grid filling game, it's more about historical things, BM's, old cemeterys and headstones, that sort of thing.
Waymarkers can't seem to get along, and when you have one self appointed leader that actually believes the site depends on them so they can bully the rest of us and we have to do as they say or they will contact their friends at HQ and they will remove you,... damned guy just ain't funny anymoyre.
So this brings us back to your old thread of let's not turn OCNA into Waymarking. No, let's make it better without lame junk. Or would a pay phone with the number as the logging code make a great addition to OCNA?

I made a mighty miche!
With all this talk on the forum about miche lately, I've been itching to give it a try. So when the excellent dmsnyder posted the formula for the miche he made in the SFBI Artisan II workshop, I decided that the time was now and the bread should be here!
I followed the very nicely written formula at the link, using a small amount of whole wheat flour in the Levain and toasted wheat germ in the final build, as I've no good source for high-extraction whole wheat flour. I made the levain with 25% whole wheat flour, 75% KAF AP (and my starter had been fed the same mix), to get approximately 3.33% whole wheat in the final dough (it actually ends up being a bit more, but I didn't worry about it).
I must say, this is an excellent formula, and an excellent bread. Incredible oven spring. Wonderful alliterative potential too: My massive mighty miche makes mastication memorable.
Anyway, pictures:
From the top
Another external view
Miriam meets miche
Not a bad crumb either.
We sliced it 7 hours after it came out of the oven. Lovely flavor and texture, lots of character. Looking forward to snacking on the remaining three quarters of a loaf I'd definitely make it again, although unlike dmsnyder, the notion of upgrading to a 2kg loaf sounds intimidating! If nothing else, there's no way that would fit in my poor little banetons. I guess there's always the "napkin in a bowl" trick, eh?

How is a Lowrance Gen2 Touch different than a regular Gen2?
Other than the touch screen, there are several differences between the HDS Gen2 and the HDS Gen2 Touch lines: 1. HDS Gen2 Touch features an incorporated StructureScan module in the head unit, eliminating the need to mount the box inside the boat; the HDS 12 and 9 Gen2 Touch models have two Ethernet ports on the back, as well as supporting video in (with the use of an optional input cable); and HDS Gen2 Touch is capable of auto adjusting StructureScan contrast.
How do I access split screens?
Split screens can be done in one of two ways: First way, you can press and hold the icon you would like to split (You will then be provided with all possible half and half split combinations). Or, User defined splits can be created.
How often do we need to re-calibrate the screen? Are their certain conditions when this should be done?
The screen does not need to be calibrated often. However, should your screen need to be calibrated doing so is very simple. Just press and hold the waypoint key during the power on process. You will then be taken to a nine-point calibration screen.
How do I take a screenshot?
Screenshots are easier in Gen2 Touch models than ever. In order to take one just press the power and pages keys at the same time. A screenshot will be saved to the HDS unit's hard drive.
How do I select different structure sources?
When multiple structure sources are detected a menu option will appear to change the Source. Simply tap this button to cycle through the choices.
How do I clear the cursor?
Whenever the cursor is displayed the very first item in the right hand menu becomes Clear Cursor.
How do I do sonar logs?
To create a sonar log simply switch to sonar view, press Advanced then press "Log sonar." Once inside you will be presented with a menu where you can choose a file name, save location, and logging criteria.
How do I input video on my HDS9 or HDS12?
HDS 9 and 12 units can display video through the use of an optional adapter cable.
How do I hide the menu?
To hide the user menu, just swipe it to the right.
How do I turn on the Audio bar for SonicHub/ LWX-1?
The option for the Audio Bar can be found in the hidden system menu. To access, just swipe down on the top menu item for any page you are viewing. In the center you will find the option Audio bar.
How do I adjust the StructureScan contrast?
On HDS Gen2 Touch StructureScan contrast is actually automatically adjusted. However, this auto mode can be biased up or down or turned off altogether. To adjust, switch to Structure mode and press the Contrast icon. Inside you will see the slider bar can be moved up or down or in this menu auto mode can be turned off.
How do I change the Sonar color palette?
While viewing the sonar page press View, inside you will see an option for Palette, press and choose the color palette you would like.
What is cursor assist mode?
While using Sonar, Structure, or GPS mode, press and hold your finger on the screen. You will notice the crosshair turns into a circle located just above your finger. This is Cursor Assist Mode. It allows you to see exactly where the cursor is and helps perfect placement.
How do I set up my overlays?
Overlay data can be edited from the Hidden System Menu. Simply switch to the page you would like to edit, and swipe down on the top menu item to access it. At the very bottom you will see Edit overlay. From this menu overlay data can be moved, changed, added, deleted, or configured. Just make sure to press Save when you are finished.
