Stop looking! Everything you want and need in a vacation home is available to you at The Lake House. The property consists of two homes: the 'Lake House' is a six-bedroom, three-bathroom, fully-furnished home; the 'Road House' sits behind the Lake House and is a completely renovated, two bedroom, one-bathroom cottage. Located on beautiful Intermediate Lake, The Lake House has 130 feet of lakefront and includes a gazebo, dock, firepit, and huge custom grill. The water is shallow and sandy close to shore making it perfect for families with small children or adults who like to tie their rafts to the dock and soak in the sun.
The home is surrounded with decking in the front and backyards and has two picnic tables, a swing, and lots of tables and chairs. Inside, you'll find three fully stocked kitchens (including a dishwasher), four full bathrooms, eight bedrooms, two fireplaces (gas and natural), and a laundry room. The family room in the lower level has two pull-out sofa beds. In all, The Lake House has sleeping accommodations for 25 (four queens, four full, 1 bunk with full size lower bed, and three sofa beds). You supply the towels, bed linens and your toiletries.
The Lake House is located in Central Lake, Michigan which is just minutes from Bellaire. It is close to several championship golf courses, skiing, restaurants, shopping, casinos, wineries, and several northern 'hot spots': ten minutes from Shanty Creek and Schuss Mountain, ten minutes from Torch Lake and Lake Michigan, 30 minutes from Charlevoix, 40 minutes from Traverse City and Boyne City, 40 minutes from Petoskey.
The Lake House is available year round for all of your recreation activities: swimming, boating, fishing, water-sports, skiing, snowmobiling, golfing, hiking, hunting, fall color tours, etc. Whether you like to be on the go or prefer to sit and relax, The Lake House offers you all the choices.

We are two sisters following our life long dream of owning a piece of heavenly Northern Michigan!
Siobhan Gannon & Sheila Gannon purchased this house in 2004
We spent our family vacations renting cottages on Intermediate Lake. It didn't take long to fall madly in love with Intermediate Lake and its beautiful surroundings.
As long-time renters, we know what you're looking for in a vacation home. We're proud of the fact that we manage to provide the little things you're looking for...whether it's plenty of mirrors and lamps, blankets and pillows, wine openers and wine glasses, plastic storage containers and tin foil, or even a rolling pin...we've got it all covered. Outside, we've got the all sports lake, lots of decks, gas and bbq grills, tables and chairs, and, of course, a firepit. All you need is the ability to relax.
We stayed here with my siblings and all our children and grandchildren and had a great time. The house accommodated all of us fairly well and we appreciated having both the Lake House and the Road House. All you need to bring are your linens and food. Everything else is really there. We did all our cooking together and it was well supplied. Mostly we cooked in the Road House because that kitchen was bigger. The main kitchen is narrow and is where we served the food and all ate together. Having 3 kitchens made the smallness of the main-floor kitchen a non-issue.
We loved, loved, loved all the outdoor spaces of this house. The balcony outside the Lake house is great for eating and watching the lake with lots of additional places tucked around for a quiet place to read or converse with others. The lawn by the road was great for bocce and croquet while the lovely grassy lawn by the lake was perfect for sunning and watching the kids. There is plenty of shade out there as well - unusual for a lake - and allowed everyone a comfortable place to be outside.The lake has a sandy bottom in the shallow area and was perfect for the littlest children. We brought our ski boat, sailboat and wind surf and all were enjoyed. The people on either side of us were also great. A neighbor down the road gave us permission to use the basketball court and the paved driveway worked for our skateboarder.
On top of that the village of Central Lake is a real gem. The community is welcoming and we loved the grocery store, fudge shop and the red-fronted store where if they don't have it you don't need it. Some of us kayaked down for ice cream it's so close. It was also the perfect week for picking sour cherries and we made 5 cherry pies. The U-pick place was 3 miles up the road and they pitted all the cherries for $1/bucket. Great fun!
There are plenty of things to do in the area and TC is only an hour away for those who fly in and out. In summary, I recommend this property very much. Our only real issue was the weather which made us need to remain inside for a few of the days. The living spaces inside were too small for all of us to be together easily. We are a large group! The Irish Twins were very kind and responsive if we needed anything. They made our stay here relaxing and delightful. I do not give 5 star ratings unless a place is beyond fantastic and, to date, I've never stayed in a perfect place. 4-star means you will have a great time with no worries.

Hi, my name is Mary Gildersleeve. I began designing shortly after teaching myself to knit at the age of 8, primarily because I do not take commands very well and I also could not afford the fancy yarns back then. Knitting and designing were my constant activities throughout undergrad, grad school and family life until, in 1997, I finally went professional and established By Hand, With Heart ... traditional hand-knit designs with a modern twist. I now create designs for various knitwear outlets (including published designs in Knitters, INKnitters, Cast On), custom knit original designs, and self-publish my own patterns . I maintain a website (www.marygildersleeve.com) where I discuss my work, my findsÃâà(reviewing books and supplies) and suggestions for teaching everyone this age-old art. I particularly love teaching all aspects of knitting ... from beginner to expert, from learning to read charts to designing your own. On most Saturdays, you can find me working at my LYS, Dog House Yarns in Culpeper. I am the exclusive designer for the cashmere-farm, Spring Gate Farm, located in Barboursville, VA.
I earned an MBA from the College of William and Mary (Williamsburg, VA) in 1988 and a BA in Print Journalism from Gonzaga University (Spokane, Washington) in 1983. I continue with my knitting education by attending seminars, voraciously reading all knitting books, magazines, and websites, and constantly honing my practical knitting skills. I was an active member of the Association of Knitwear Designers (which shut down, unfortunately).
I am married, have 5 children (10 to 23 yrs) and keep busy homeschooling, working on the computer, writing articles, and knitting, knitting, knitting in rural Virginia. In 2008, a book I wrote was published "Great Yarns for the Close-Knit Family: over two dozen hand-knit designs inspired by a dozen fantastic family read-alouds"; a year later, another book I wrote hit the bookstores, "In His Image: Nurturing Creativity in the Heart of Your Home" (both are available on Amazon and other book outlets)..
Whenever I make a poncho pattern, folks want it in a shawl; whenever I design a shawl pattern, folks want it in a poncho! So, this is my first combo pattern ... both a shawl and a poncho based on the same design.
you start at the top, increasing on certain rounds/rows with the sparkly mohair and then work rounds/rows of lace patterning to make a fun, worsted weight poncho or shawl
poncho is worked completely in the round - only finishing is tucking in the ends.
shawl is worked flat, starting with a small tab and then carrying a patterned border while repeating the pattern rows 5x across.
the mohair blend used has sequins so you get a bit of sparkle - the stars at night - while gradually increasing the number of rounds/rows using the mohair
Directions are written and include charts
12 sts x 20 rws = 4 inches stockinette, knitted flat and blocked (same gauge for both items)
700 yards of Chunky weight

There are $99$ identical square tiles, each with a quarter-circle drawn on it. When the tiles are randomly arranged in a $9$ by $11$ rectangle, what is the expected value of the number of full circles formed?
I assume tiles can be rotated, but can't be turned over (which would hide the quarter-circle).
Hint 1: A full circle is formed at any of the $80$ interior vertices if the four tiles touching that vertex all have the proper orientation. What is the probability of that?
Hint 2: Expected value of sum = sum of expected values.
lets match each formed circle to its upper left corner, there are 8x10 such upper left tiles possible, the probability for each of those tiles to form a circle:
$ P($tile $i$ formed a circle and is in the upper left corner$)= (\frac14)^4 $
(each tile of the 4 has a 1/4 chance of being in the right oriantation)
therefore $E[X] = E[\sum X_i] = \sum E[X_i]= 8\cdot 10 \cdot (\frac14)^4$

State senator calls for Cal coach's suspension
St. Sen. Leland Yee is calling for Cal basketball coach Mike Montgomery to be suspended after shoving one of his own players at a game.
Andrew Ellis: She has achieved absolutely nothing. She married the right person. That's it. Her accomplishments include lying under oath, getting away with federal crimes, having state secrets hacked due to illegal protocols, clearing swathes of land in the middle east to be later occupied by ISIS, & getting diplomats and soldiers killed by lack of competency. If she is elected president we will see ISIS expand beyond control, terrorist attacks on a global scale, breakdowns in foreign relations, and an overall decline in America's clout both militarily & diplomatically.

Vectura confirmed that its partner Novartis has reported positive data from a fourth Phase III study evaluating the inhaled COPD therapy QVA149, which combines Vectura's long-acting muscarinic antagonist NVA237 (glycopyrronium bromide) with Novartis' own long-acting beta2 agonist indacaterol. The Illuminate study in over 500 patients demonstrated that once-daily treatment with QVA149 was more effective than twice-daily seretide in terms of improving lung function.
All four QVA149 trials in the Ignite program (the Illuminate, Shine, Bright, and Enlighten studies) have now been successfully completed, and will form the basis of regulatory submission for QVA149 in the EU, Japan, and other countries. Three more QVA149 studies (Spark, Blaze, and Arise) are due for completion in 2012. Meanwhile, Novartis' discussions with FDA have led to an agreed Phase III study design for QVA149 and NVA237 in the U.S. Both these drugs could be filed with FDA in 2014, Vectura notes.
Novartis licensed NVA237 from Vectura and Sosei in 2005. Vectura says it has to date received $35 million from Novartis as part of the licensing agreement, and could earn up to another $152.5 million in regulatory and commercialization targets for both the NVA237 monotherapy, and the QVA149 combination product.

Glucocorticoid treatment can alter bone metabolism, reduce bone strength, and increase the risk for osteoporotic fractures. Risk factors for glucocorticoid-induced osteoporosis (GIO) include older age, high doses, and longer duration of glucocorticoid use. The bone loss that accompanies glucocorticoid use is rapid, and early treatment with bone-sparing agents can prevent bone loss and reduce fracture risk. Several randomized controlled clinical trials have found prevention and treatment of GIO with bisphosphonates, and recently the treatment of GIO with teriparatide, to be effective. This article reviews current information on the epidemiology, pathophysiology, and clinical studies that support using bone-active agents to prevent and treat GIO.

Natural and man-made disasters strike all countries, but particularly in our region. Examining how emergency management services, land managers, and communities prepared, responded to and assisted with recovery is vital to developing evidence-based policy and practice for the future.
In collaboration with our sponsor, Danley Electrical Contracting, we've designed this conference to bring together and share the combined wisdom of experience, research and analysis from across the sector to enable a deeper understanding of the approaches needed to secure the region's future and prosperity.

Links Between Literacy And Numeracy Skills And Labour Market Outcomes
Governments in Australia are interested in ways to improve human capital. For example, improving human capital is a key stream of the Council Of Australian Government's (COAG's) National Reform Agenda (NRA). Human capital refers to the set of attributes that individuals possess, including knowledge, skills, work experience, health and intangible characteristics such as motivation. Human capital may be acquired, or enhanced, through formal education or training, and by other, informal means (for example, through the experiences of undertaking daily activities at home or at the workplace).

I'm working on converting and old Rails app from Rails 2.3.14 to Rails 3.0.
It's still using Prototype (converting to jQuery is a later step in our migration path), so no jQuery answers, please.
We've got lots of forms with pulldowns that we currently submit as AJAX whenever one of the pulldowns gets changed.
In the Rails 2.3 version we used
form_remote_tag and then the
onchange event for the pulldowns would call
$('myform').onsubmit(); to submit the form ajaxily.
In the Rails 3.0 branch, we've converted the form to use
form_tag with
:remote => true, however, when we select a option from the pulldown, Firebug reports
$('myform').onsubmit is not a function.
Changing from
$('myform').onsubmit(); to just
$('myform').submit(); causes the form to get submitted, but not ajaxily.
Any suggestions on how to use the onchange event on the pulldowns to submit the form ajaxily with Prototype and Rails 3?

ASCEM had a strong slash leaning, due to the flamewars associated with Alt Startrek Creative that caused many slash authors to leave the newsgroup.
An associated mailing list, ASCEM(L), acts as a mirror for ASCEM usenet posts. ASCEML, unlike ASCEM, allows real-time posting with no moderation after the subscribed account is determined not to be a spam account.
All ASCEM submissions are archived at Trekiverse.
February 2000 was the month with the most posts: 3848.
ASCEM began as a USENET group. It was orginally alt.sex.fetish.startrek in 1994[2] but spam cased a migration to the alt.startrek.creative heirarchy as alt.startrek.creative.erotica in December of 1995. The spam unfortunately followed, and by July of 1997, discussion had developed on the group about becoming a moderated group to the point that the proposal was brought to alt.config. The proposal was originally called alt.startrek.creative.treksmit [3] Some sources have suggested that ASCE was the result of the slash debate on ASC [4], however ASCE predates the cited debate.
ASCEM began in August 1997, as did the associated mailing list, ASCEM(L).[5].
The amount of slash/sex discussion stirred up on the newsgroup upset a number of members and a separate group alt.startrek.creative.erotica (ASCE) was created for those specifically wishing to write read such things. But advertising is everything, and within a few months, ASCE (as well as alt.sex.fetish.startrek) was drowned by spambots pushing adult services. ASC endured, and those wishing to see a viable list for K/S pushed on and petitioned for alt.startrek.creative.erotica.moderated (ASCEM) to be formed—moderated only for the purposes of filtering spam.
Thusly was The Big List born.
In 1998 the numbers involved increased dramatically, possibly due to a change in the group mechanics: messages from the Usenet news server were relayed to a Onelist mailing list, making posting and receiving much more user friendly and accessible. Describes Hafital: "It didn't take long for me to read my way through the archive to feed my new obsession. But, I had no idea where the actual activity was going on. I saw the stories in the archive, which I could reach through the World Wide Web, but I had no clue about email lists or newsgroups or anything, really. The Frequently Asked Questions section on the main ASCEM Web site was helpful for those wanting to submit stories but it made no mention on how to actually join ASCEM—presumably because the moderators thought if you where there already, you would know! I felt very much like I was stranded outside the party and could only look in the window."Eventually, some of the stories posted to the archive had a footer at the end that mentioned that ASCEM was mirrored on Onelist and that proved to be my salvation. I was able to find Onelist and able to subscribe and then I blindly walked into a world I really had no idea had ever existed. [6]

ASCEM was founded and initially moderated by Alexis and Ruth Gifford. Ruth also served as the FAQ Maintainer.
ASCEM(L) was initially moderated by Anneinchicago.
Memes and Themes
A subgroup of ASCEM, TSU, developed in 1998 as a response to the students (now known as aca-fans) who were part of fandom to study it for their college theses, etc., as well as for pure fun. The Star Trek fandom came down hard on both sides of the issue, with many fans annoyed by the academics' "intrusion" into the safe space of fan community, and others excited about the prospect of academizing -- and to a degree legitimizing -- fannish practice.
Also in 1998, Varoneeka posted a parody of recent troll incursions, Hi. I'm a Rude Person, which included the story "Ricker and Troy Fuck". This started a wave of Rude Person badfic stories.
Soon after, UKJess posted a parody of classic Kirk/Spock stories, Ah'm Norra Rude Person, written in broad Yorkshire. A second wave of Rude Person stories followed, where the basic Kirk/Spock plot was re-written in various ways - in Minnesotan dialect, in Silicon Valley speak, in the style of Joseph Conrad, etcetera.
No Sex, Please... It Sounds Unfriendly
From a fan in 2001: "The fact that a *moderated* group exists for Trek erotica, in addition to the original, says disturbing things about the volume being posted. *Shudder* (I don't like to even *think* about my friendly neighboarhood SF characters, regardless of series, having sex. I'm probably in a minority.)" [7]
A 1998 Discussion About Cliques, Newbies, and Fitting InIn April 1998, a fan named Emily Salzfass wrote:
In the process of trying to figure out the nature of this online fan community, I've noticed that a lot of people are taking issue with the "cliquey" nature of ASCEM. Note:
One person who responded to my query said:
>ASCEML is very cliquey. If you're not in the 'inner circle', you basically get ignored. [...] Anyway, the point is, unless you post a really, really, really great story, or ask for help with something, OR start an argument (which is a bit childish, but then what's the point of being grown-up if you can't be childish sometimes?) then nobody really gives a toss.
And another person said:>Some of these people seem to have known each other for years, and for newcomers, well, it's a little of the old 'new kid on the playground' feeling. That said, I *do* get good feedback on my stories... but I don't often get into the threads that are started up. Observing them, I notice that the same people keep writing in them, and outsiders tend to be ignored a little. It's like any group, anywhere - there is always an inner clique.

I'm just curious how big Ubuntu's rootfs would be because Nexus 4 has no microsd slot and only 16gb of memory.
On the 8GB Nexus 4 (mako) I use for development that I've recently reflashed:
So if you subtract the 1.7GB of data I have in my home directory, I have about 4.1GB free space after the system image. So for the 16GB model, you'd probably have around 12GB free to play with.
Those numbers may change a bit as the OS is developed.
According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubuntu_Touch#Hardware_requirements , ubuntu touch on tablet requires at least 8GB of space.
Unfortunately, I cannot offer any further insight.

Perhaps it was the heart-tugging - if not stomach-churning - tale of Zacarias Moussaoui's troubled childhood that led a jury this week to sentence the 9/11 conspirator to life in prison without parole rather than the punishment he so richly deserved - the death penalty.
If that's the reason, the 37-year-old Frenchman can thank his inner child.
We'll respect the decision of the jury even if we disagree with it.
What we can't let go is the logic behind capital punishment opponents who have shown glee over Moussaoui's fate.
"Let him rot," touted an editorial in The Dallas Morning News, which added, "We think he's actually paying a higher price (than the death penalty.)"
"(Moussaoui) does not deserve to see the light of day again - and he won't under the jury's sentence of life imprisonment without the possibility of release," said an editorial in The Los Angeles Times.
Even Moussaoui's mother, Aicha el-Wafi, moaned about the life sentence: "He's going to spend his life in a hole like a rat. It's even worse than dying."
This is not "cruel and unusual punishment?"
This doesn't fit the constitutional mantra that capital punishment opponents ring out from the rooftops every time a cold-blooded killer who can't read well enough to score a 75 on an I.Q. test, but knows enough to try to avoid law enforcement, is administered a lethal injection on a hospital gurney.
Moussaoui could live another 40-50 years, spending 23 hours a day in a cell by himself watching anger management videos.
Not that we'll shed a tear for Moussaoui, but it is confusing what death penalty opponents consider "cruel and unusual."

[Please see bottom of question for latest status!]
I'm trying to set up Django with Apache + mod_wsgi on a vanilla Debian 6.0 machine.
Unfortunately, when I go to the machine's IP address in a browser, I get
403 Forbidden: You don't have permission to access / on this server. The Apache logs just say:
[Wed May 04 10:20:56 2011] [error] [client x.x.x.x] (13)Permission denied: access to / denied
So here's what I've tried to do. I've set up a new Django project at
~/fruit/myfruit, and some WSGI/Apache files at
~/fruit/apache, as follows:
import os
import sys
path = '~/fruit'
if path not in sys.path:
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'myfruit.settings'
import django.core.handlers.wsgi
application = django.core.handlers.wsgi.WSGIHandler()
WSGIScriptAlias / "/root/fruit/apache/django.wsgi"
<Directory "/root/fruit/apache">
Order deny,allow
Allow from all
And I've edited various Apache files as follows:
**/etc/apache2/httpd.conf **
LoadModule wsgi_module modules/mod_wsgi.so
Include "/root/fruit/apache/django_wsgi.conf"
127.0.0.1 localhost
[[my_ip_address]] debian debian
When I restart Apache (running as root), I get the following warnings:
root@debian:~/fruit/apache# /etc/init.d/apache2 restart
Restarting web server: apache2[Wed May 04 10:27:36 2011] [warn] module wsgi_module is already loaded, skipping
apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using [[my_ip_address]] for ServerName
... waiting [Wed May 04 10:27:37 2011] [warn] module wsgi_module is already loaded, skipping
apache2: Could not reliably determine the server's fully qualified domain name, using [[my_ip_address]] for ServerName
I don't know whether these are connected to the permissions error, or whether it matters that the error message is printed twice.
Please could anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I have little experience of Apache!
Many thanks!
UPDATE: In case it's a file permissions error, I've run
chmod a+x * for all files in the
myfruit and
apache directories and the directories themselves, and restarted Apache. No joy.
UPDATE: I can't even connect to localhost:
root@debian:~/fruit# wget http://localhost
--2011-05-04 10:44:41-- http://localhost/
Resolving localhost... 127.0.0.1
Connecting to localhost|127.0.0.1|:80... connected.
HTTP request sent, awaiting response... 403 Forbidden
2011-05-04 10:44:41 ERROR 403: Forbidden.
UPDATE: OK solved it, by setting
chmod a+x on my
root directory. I don't like this at all though - surely it must be a security hole? What should I be doing instead?

Stages of Spring
Spring comes in stages. Of course there is always the anticipation stage, where we are making it spring two weeks before the actual date of spring which usually does not really mean spring even still for another couple of weeks. There are the buds on the trees fooling us by looking just like they might open any time now.
Next a few CROCUS peek through
The little greenery all around is the ice plant that will have beautiful neon pinkish reddish purplish color tiny sunburst type flowers and a few early daffodils show up but not in their great splendor until later.
Next come the Bradford Pears,
then the other fruit trees begin to show their blooms. The forsythia and the crabapple bloom and unnoticed except for through our allergies the pine begin to bloom also.
Finally comes the full blast of the daffodils and jonquils
followed by the dogwoods and azaleas
not to mention the weeping cherries
and several other blooming trees about the time the green onions appear followed by the dandelions. We wait for the grass to green up which takes longer than we want. Then the mowing and yard chores begine. Spring is in full swing with anticipation of summer and wonderful vegetables and strawberries and daisies and more. Oh and don't forget the pansies!
Spring also brings T-Ball for my grandson, Easter, Dance Recital for two of my granddaughters, birthday for one granddaughter and so much more.

My First CSA Farm Share of the Season, Identify the Veg, Family Pride, Spring Walks and Nature and More
Today I had my first farm delivery for the 2014 season. I purchased a 1/4 share from a local farm -Strawberry Creek Farm Produces Chemical Free and Certified Naturally Grown Produce. I receive a delivery every week for 24 weeks. This early in the season, today's delivery was all greens. Sometimes I have difficulty identifying the greens. Perhaps you can help me.
Today's Vegetables
I am sometimes unsure what each is. With this being just leaves I am not 100% certain but think this is Bokchoy.
I am thinking this must be arugala.
This is Kale.
This is a beautiful luscious lettuce mix.
This spinach is so pretty and green and so healthy.
Family Pride
Today I was most proud to introduce my son to my WMU group at church to tell all about his family mission trip to Costa Rico last summer. He did such a great job and everyone just loved him and wanted to take him home with them. He had the sweetest handout starting with photos that were taken by my 7 year old grandson and he compared him to his mom (me) and how he was a camera nut like me. It was so sweet how he included his children in his handout. I was super impressed. Everyone had such meaningful questions after he finished. It was a lunch meeting and later after visiting his granddaddy, he text me and wanted to know what my dinner plans were. So we actually had lunch and dinner together today before he headed back home. A fun day.
Sky as I started out on my late walk - Clouds Gathering.
That is pretty much why I had such a LATE walk. Just as I turned the corner from my street my friend was pulling in her driveway and under her garage. As I walked past, I heard her knocking on her garage door. I pretty much knew that meant she wanted to walk with me. So I waited - always happy to have a companion especially with it getting dark already.
We were walking along and talking when we froze in our tracks as she was saying, "Look, Look, Look!" I got about 4 shots of a deer.
As we were saying our good-byes we looked up and saw the moon peeking through the thick clouds! I got a couple of shots before the clouds quickly covered it again.
Night Clouds in the Sky Hid the Moon Just as Quickly as it Peeked Out! My Walk Home.

The weather here went from winter to summer 82 yesterday or higher and today close to 90....I know at one point was 89. I had to pull out the sun tan lotions and short sleeves today and run the air in the car.
I have been chasing spring like crazy finding tiny signs all around. The lawns still are not green unless you count wild onions. It won't be long though.
Today, I went over to the Riverwalk chasing wood ducks after both Briarcraft and Backwardguy posted their wood duck shots, but had no luck. However I did find the swallows and of all things a mushrat diving for freshwater clams. That was quite interesting.
I got a train shot as I was leaving the Riverwalk.
I had dinner after getting home and then decided to take a late walk almost too late. It was way too dark by the time I got back home. However I got a bunch of moon shots. The moon is a sliver right now. One of my moon shots just went blue so that is super exciting.
I am loving seeing all of the pretty flowers and babies beginning to show up on WU. Check out the cute little girl with the baby chicks posted by KittenEileen.

Sad Note - Grave Robbers Happy Note - The Singing Auctioneer Flowers & Spring Rains
My first night shot - An Amazing View Across the River. I had no idea there was such an amazing view from the parking lot of this little Italian restaurant. I am definitely going back for some more night shots and perhaps some day shots even. I had no idea you could really see that clearly that far.
Spring Swing - Nothing says Spring any better!
I wrote this Saturday night in the wee hours and accidentally clicked away and lost it all so am hoping to get it posted tonight - Monday night in the wee hours again.
Sad Note - Grave Robbers Happy Note - The Singing Auctioneer Flowers & Spring Rains
I was over on Pros's blog and mentioned a sad tale to tell. Not an easy share.
Yesterday, I took spring flowers down to place on my brother's grave the flowers did not look right. They were just crammed in the hole where the brass urn or vase use to sit. Someone had stolen it. I just could not believe it! Luckily, I had a large cone shaped piece of styrofoam that fitted in the hole perfectly. I put the new flowers in - though perhaps not my best as I was so upset.
I thought more about it this am and decided just to search to see if any other flower urn vase were stolen in that town. Sure enough came right up - seems 131 brass urns were stolen and if they had not counted my brother's, that makes 132. What a shame! That is my sad story.
On a happy note, I visited a relative who lives at a really nice assisted living facility. When I arrived, they were having a special program in the dining room. A one man show - The Singing Auctioneer - Dane Bailey I am thinking was his real name from Berne Indiana I think. Could he ever sing and his back up music tapes had such great sound. He sang solid for an hour without ever taking a break. Those ladies were eating it up - most of the residents are women. It was amazing to watch them relate to the music. The minute he started singing they were softly singing along a few lines. It was wonderful to see their smiles of joy. If he ever comes to your area, it is well worth your time. This made his 4th year visiting the facility. He was actually booked for the Methodist church there in town for Sunday but makes little side appearances evidently.
Link to his website:http://singingauctioneer.com/index.php
Today was quite the rainy day all day long and all night long - started Friday afternoon and just doesn't seem to want to leave. It is supposed to have cold air behind it as it leaves the area.
Despite the rain today, I decided it was not going to stop raining so went on for a walk anyway with my large sunflower umbrella. I only went to the end of the street and back but I found spring along the way - the forsythia was in bloom, all types of buttercups, jonquils, and daffodils, and the Bradford Pears are just beautiful. I snapped a few photos in the rain from under my umbrella.

Today, the WorldWide Telescope gets an update ... a major update. Just have a look at this screenshot...
That's right - WWT has gone 3D. You can fly through the Solar System now! And keep flying out, out through the hundred thousand stars in the Hipparcos Catalog, out further till you see (a model of) the Milky Way. Many users will be able to zoom even further out and enjoy the beautiful filaments-and-voids structure formed by half a million galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey, one of the main projects that Jim Gray – to whom WWT is dedicated – collaborated with astronomers on.
With the 3D mode, you can see how the moon casts a shadow on the earth during a solar eclipse, zoom into Saturn's rings, and witness just how far from the center of the Milky Way we are. And, yes, you can make tours using this enthralling new mode.
Speaking of tours, they have multi-level undo and animation now – text and inserted images can expand, contract, move, spin, fade, etc within a slide. That makes storytelling a lot easier – and a lot more fun as you try to get just the right effect. When you've installed WWT Equinox, try this Apollo tour (disclaimer: yours truly made it) for an example of a tour with lots of animation. You can also cut and paste from MS Office applications.
WWT is also going worldwide … linguistically. It is now possible for you to create localized versions of WWT. For a start, we've done Simplified Chinese during the course of a project with Microsoft Research Asia and the National Astronomical Observatory of China. If you're an astronomy-savvy user who would like to translate a few hundred strings of English into a different language, please email email@example.com … we may take a while to get back to you since our small team in the Next Media group of Microsoft Research will be swamped in the next week.
There's more data to look at, with hundreds of new images from the Hubble, Chandra, Spitzer space telescopes, as well as from renowned astrophotographer Jack Newton. We also have new surveys in the ultraviolet (GALEX) and gamma-ray (Fermi) domain, as well as an updated set of sixteen surveys about the Cosmic Microwave Background from the WMAP Science Team.
Remember how the WWT Spring Beta had just four panoramas of Mars? We've ramped that up – there are now over fifty. Some are even in 3d, so get your red-cyan glasses out! They are mostly from the Cornell Pancams on the NASA/JPL Spirit and Opportunity Rovers, but also from the 2008 Phoenix Lander and the earlier Pathfinder missions. But it's not just Mars – we've got the Moon too, with half a dozen panoramas stitched at NASA's Johnson Space Center and Ames Center from the original Apollo astronauts' photographs.
If you have your own panoramas or photographs that you're itching to get into WorldWide Telescope, hold on a week or two – we'll have some simple utilities for you to get your data into WWT. You can, of course, already play with WWT's inbuilt manual image aligner.
What else? Various bug fixes, check. Also - several features that will only be used by power users, niche users, and users who stumble upon them by accident. Like cone searching with NED (NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database) returning results as VOTables, textures on Saturnian and Uranian moons, Earth globes where you can see polar regions, panoramas of telescopes at Mauna Kea, pressing F11 to enter and leave a full-screen mode where you can revel in the brilliant blackness of pure sky, saving to Desktop wallpaper, changing planet sizes between Actual and Visible, using a Xbox Controller or 3d Connexion Navigator, going to locations defined using coordinate systems other than J2000, and … more.And there are more tours and stories, some of which really showcase WWT's new touring abilities.
Watch this space for more documentation and tools. You can also start thinking about how you would like to organize your own community – what data would you like to host? How will you moderate data uploaded by others in your community? In the next couple of weeks, we will provide further details and stories about some of the datasets and features you'll find in this release, so that we can credit the many wonderful people in science, education, and outreach with whom we worked to get this release out to you.
To try it out, please go to the WorldWide Telescope website.
And please send your comments, positive and negative, to email@example.com - and check out the forums first.

While very pretty, these goblets are short and shallow. This "cup" does not work well with a water dispensor on the fridge door - it is too shallow. If you are looking to use for pouring a small amount into it, this is a very nice product.
Color is way off, not what I expected at all and some of the items were damaged when I arrived home and found them on my porch. The boxes were damaged and had multiple holes in them. Glassware should not be offered on overstock. I expect to receive what I order. I ended up going to a chain store and buying two boxes of 16 glasses that match what I wanted perfectly and for under $15 per box of 16 glasses. I would recommend that overstock stay away from colored glassware, none of what I ordered was what I expected and arrived damaged. I understand that glass is hard to ship, but that is on overstock, They need to bite the bullet on these items, no questions asked.
- How did the color on site compare with the actual product? Not at all
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Poor, below poor.
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? Dimensions were on target.

Hello WP friends.
At my login page "Existing Users Login" does translate into danish.
I have checked the language file, the translation there is ok.
What can I do - I am not very experienced WP user.
Thanks a log.
Hello WP friends.
At my login page "Existing Users Login" does translate into danish.
I have checked the language file, the translation there is ok.
What can I do - I am not very experienced WP user.
Thanks a log.
... It does'nt translate of cause...
That string was changed a few versions ago from "Existing users Login" to "Existing Users Login" (notice the difference in case). Check the string in the translation file to make sure it is correct.
Hi Chad and thx for you help.
I got it to work for some month, but now I have updated your plug in again.
And now one more I can't get the translation on the log in page to work.
I have edited the language file "Existing Users Login" to danish - but nothing happens.
Any Ideas?
I am able to translate other fields into danish, but the is no "contact" to Existing Users Login
There are a number of strings that are different in 2.9. However, it doesn't appear those are reflected in the template. I'll be releasing 2.9.1 very soon with some fixes from 2.9 and a new translation template will be included.
Thank you - If you need assistance translating into Danish, I will be happy to help :-)
Hi Chad.
Thaks for the update, unfortunately "Existing users Log In" still does not translate into danish after updating. Any Ideas?
I am able to translate other text items like "forgot password" etc.
Make sure you have the proper case - "Existing Users Log In" (upper case "U").
Hi Chad,
I have the same problem. Upgraded to 2.9.1 and still no translation to Dutch.
I have reloaded from pot file and Login is now changed to Log In, but still no success
Hi Chad.
I have the upper case U - and still it does'nt work.
But in the PO file I can see the original text is: "Existing Users Login".
As you can see "Login" is spelled in one word - not divided into "Log In".
I don't know if that could be the problem? In POedit I have tried to alter the original text into "Log In" into two word, but I can't do that. (linie ID 155)
I have found the solution.
When you open the .po file with poedit, you have to update the content from the .pot file (in same directory as .po files) and after that you have to un-mark the fuzzy entries, The Existing Users Log in entry must be unchecked as fuzzy. Save the file and translation works again.
Thx's a lot - now it works indeed :-)
(But why does the .po file have to get an update from the .pot file?

Research Institution:
AbstractUnder this Phase I SBIR program, Applied Sciences, Inc., will exploit the unique properties of its low-cost carbon nanofibers to create and test coating materials to shield against electromagnetic interference (EMI). The coatings will be comprised ofversions ASI's low-cost carbon nanofiber, PyrografO-III, or blends of nanofiber and metal particulate, in a variety of possible matrix materials, but primarily urethanes and silicones. The materials chosen will be characterized by short cure times, longservice life, and generally black coloration (the natural color of the carbon nanofibers.) The end result will be a family of materials, characterized by a range of dielectric and mechanical properties, that can be be used to tailor EMI absorption needsto the specific engineering situation. The current effort is focused on materials for EMI shielding. However, the results could broadly apply to other signature control applications, include surface, land, and aerospace vehicles and structures. Thematerials may also be useful for communications and electronics shielding, and for lightning strike protection.

The Enigma Returns to Citi Field
Of course he came back in a Cardinals uniform. Of course he returned with Adam Wainwright on the mound Friday night at Citi Field.
Even now, nearly a year removed from his long tenure in Flushing, Carlos Beltran is asked about his infamous strikeout against Wainwright to end the 2006 National League Championship Series.
But as the years pass and the bitterness of some fans dissipates, that moment won't define Beltran's six and a half years as a Met. Nor will his perceived indifference, his team's failures, his knee injuries or any of the other reasons he wasn't wholly embraced.
Beltran, rather, will go down as one of the more underappreciated athletes in New York sports history. What defines his legacy here is simply his individual body of work, which puts him among the greatest players the Mets have ever had.
Pick an offensive category and you will likely find Beltran in the Mets' all-time top 10: on-base percentage, slugging percentage, total bases, doubles, home runs, RBI, walks and so on. He was, unquestionably, the best center fielder in franchise history.
"I felt personally, in the years I was healthy, I had my best years in baseball with the Mets," Beltran said before Friday's game. "A lot of ups and downs as a team. There were years when we were supposed to go to the playoffs. We didn't win. We fell short. But it was a good experience for me."
Even his departure worked out well for the Mets, who landed top pitching prospect Zack Wheeler by trading Beltran to the San Francisco Giants last summer. Yet there are fans who still bemoan what Beltran didn't do, whether his failures were real or perceived.
He didn't win enough. He didn't care enough, or so some people believed. And yes, he didn't swing at that curveball from Wainwright in Game 7.
Had the Mets made the playoffs the following year or in the years since, perhaps it would have been easier to forget. But six years later, there have been no new October moments to celebrate, so that one lingers.
"If that's what they want to remember, honestly, that's them," Beltran said. "There's nothing I can do about it. I wish I could have done different, and it didn't happen. No one wanted to do better in that opportunity than myself. It didn't happen to be that way."
During Beltran's final home game as a Met in July, when it was obvious he would be traded before the next home stand, he received only tepid cheers from the crowd at Citi Field. On Friday, the reception was mostly the same, but the cheers at least seemed to outnumber the boos.
The Mets aired a one-minute video tribute to Beltran on the screen above center field before the game, as they did with Jose Reyes in April. From the dugout, Beltran gave it a thumbs-up.
"I do have to say this: Maybe they were fans here that didn't treat me like I was expecting, but there were other fans that did treat me with love," he said. "And you have to remember those moments. You don't remember the negative. You remember the positive."
Beltran, 35, signed a two-year, $26 million deal with St. Louis over the winter and has helped compensate for the loss of Albert Pujols. Entering Friday, Beltran led the NL with 15 homers and ranked ninth with a .394 OBP. His knees still get stiff from time to time, but they've held up well enough so far.
As Beltran came to bat in the first inning, he walked past a large Mets Hall of Fame logo painted on the field. John Franco will become the latest member Sunday.
Could that ever be Beltran, honored by the Mets and welcomed back the way ex-players such as Franco so often are?
"I would love to do that one day," he said.

Canadian Securities Administrators, the collection of provincial regulators, have put out a request for comment on proposed amendments to its pre-marketing and marketing prospectus rules.
Not exactly sexy stuff here, but nevertheless important. As it stands, investment dealers are banned from pre-marketing initial public offerings. CSA has put forward a proposal that would allow non-reporting issuers to determine interest in an IPO, through their investment dealer, before a prospectus is filed.
There is also a new proposal that would allow dealers to use term sheets and to conduct road shows during the waiting period after filing of a preliminary prospectus.
Moreover, CSA hopes to provide some clarity on when a bought deal can be upsized.

The organizing axis of this article is a reflection around the assistance-oriented outlook as basis for social intervention by different agents. This reflection centers on the historical evolution of assistance up to the present, emphasizing the development of assistance establishments that direct attention to children. Through the case analysis of one of such establishments, a combination of orphanage-child detention center, this article shows the way in which institutional practices maintain the principles of assistance policy, guiding the work of the institution from a controversial standpoint.

Adam Silver, who will replace Stern when the NBA's longest-serving commissioner steps down next February, considers China key to the league's growth potential and likes the idea of one day having team based outside the United States.
"I'm excited about the opportunity ahead," Silver told Reuters after a news conference to announce that ESPN and the WNBA extended an agreement to televise the women's league by six years through 2022.
Silver, who joined NBA management 20 years ago, worked on the original WNBA business plan and said he was "thrilled" by the TV deal and predicted the pieces were in place "to take the league to the next level."
The quiet, bespectacled executive, who has largely labored in the background while the autocratic Stern steered the NBA, was even more animated on the strides he believed the NBA would make.
"I'm incredibly excited about the opportunity I have with the NBA, which is also poised for not just another chapter in its growth but I think is prepared to take another leap in popularity, especially outside the United States," said Silver.
NBA teams based overseas was something Silver envisioned for the future, but said it was too early to predict when.
"Initially the growth is going to come from digital media," said Silver. "For example, I was in Beijing and Shanghai last week meeting with our media partners there. We currently have 55 million followers of the NBA on social media platforms in China.
"We're now in the 26th year of a partnership with CCTV in China and have a very healthy slate of sponsors there.
"Probably most important for the long term growth for the NBA, participation levels continue to increase among the Chinese youth, both boys and girls. Right now it's our second largest market. But who knows in a country of 1.3 billion what the opportunities will ultimately be?"
Silver, 50, said Stern was planning a trip to India next month. "Another country of over a billion people with a young population that loves basketball."
He said the NBA is working with Brooklyn Nets Russian owner Mikhail Prokhorov and the Russian government to further grow basketball there as well as projects to develop the game more on the continent of Africa.
Silver said he believed establishing teams outside the United States was part of the NBA's future, but remained in the conceptual stage.
"When we do expand, we'd need to expand probably with multiple teams, so that you wouldn't have an orphan team in Europe, but that you'd potentially have a division so those teams could play each other more often and NBA teams presumably traveling in Europe could have more teams to play when they're over there," said Silver.
"It's still a concept, but I'm comfortable with it."

Spectacular! Beautiful video, very erotic. Great contrast with the usual 'same old". The guy is really well-hung too, the girl gorgeous. I even liked the narrator's comments on 'penis diversity" especially.

What your phone vendor didn't tell you about Bluetooth security
Is your address book open to the world? Is your mobile phone calling Russia? Many users don't know how easy it is for an attacker to target Bluetooth.
Do you remember the friendly young man with the laptop sitting next to you on the subway this morning who got off one station before you did? Now he knows all about your appointment with the doctor tomorrow afternoon; he knows your girlfriend's phone number; he's read the messages your co-workers sent you after the meeting yesterday. In fact, he's read all your messages and the phone numbers on your cell phone too. And, incidentally, he just
changed your appointment with the boss by one hour. You're going to be late, and you can forget about that promotion.
