HOW TO: Make kid-friendly salt dough ornaments for the holidays
filed under: art, eco play, green family, green gifts, green holiday ideas for kids, how-to, kid friendly
1. Gather the ingredients and supplies you will need.
For the ornaments:
- 4 cups flour, plus a little more for rolling out the dough
- 1 cup salt
- 1 1/2-2 cups water
Other supplies:
- Cookie cutters
- Toothpick
- Acrylic or tempera paint (I highly recommend acrylic over tempera paint, but I also advocate for using what you have on hand! The tempera paint requires more coats of paint (which my paint-loving kids didn't seem to mind) and has a more powdery, cracked finish. Since these are kid creations, it did not matter to us, but the acrylic paints we had on hand delivered a much more "finished" look)
- Any other decoration tools, such as glitter, that you might want to use (optional)
- Clear nail polish/shellac (also optional, but this gives a more finished look and seals in the paint for longer use)
- Twine, string, or whatever you want to hang your ornaments with
2. Make the dough.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. In a large bowl, combine the flour and salt and mix well. Gradually add the water and mix until it has a putty-like consistency. I needed closer to 2 cups of water for this (if it gets a little watery, you can always add a few tablespoons of flour). Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, until it is smooth and well-combined. The dough will be pretty firm, so you and your kids can roll it out together! Roll the dough to about 1/4 inch in thickness on a lightly floured surface.
3. Cut out the shapes.
Cut out shapes using whatever cookie cutters you like and place on an ungreased cookie sheet. You can also create holiday keepsakes by imprinting your children's hands or thumbprints in the dough. Remind your kids not to try to eat the cookies since they are super salty.
4. Make a hanging hole.
Using a toothpick, make a hole at the top (or wherever you choose) of the ornament, twisting to make sure the hole stays large enough for string or ribbon to go through.
5. Bake the ornaments.
Place the ornaments in the preheated oven and bake until firm, about 40 minutes to an hour. Start checking them after about 35 minutes. There are several methods for baking these ornaments, including letting them cook for several hours at lower temperatures and even letting them dry out naturally for 48 hours on a countertop. This baking method allows for quicker gratification for kids and works fine as long as you are painting the ornaments since parts of the ornament may brown slightly. Remove the ornaments from the oven and let them cool.
6. Paint and decorate the ornaments.
Once the ornaments are cooled, let kids go crazy with their creations. They can paint both sides or leave one side blank to "sign" their craft. After the paint has dried, paint with clear nail polish if desired.
7. Hang the ornaments.
Using string, twine, pipe cleaners, feed through the hanging hole and tie a loop and a knot. Hang on Christmas trees, Hanukkah bushes, around the house, and be sure to send a few ornaments to some loving grandparents, aunts, uncles, neighbors, teachers, or any other special people in your children's lives! This recipe made about 35 ornaments. Happy holidays!

Kat Stratton tried on a houndstooth hat Wednesday, but she didn't shout, "Roll, Tide!"
"I'm not a hardcore Alabama fan … yet," said Tupelo's senior goal keeper, who signed a soccer national letter of intent with Alabama.
"I've been committed to them since my sophomore year. I liked the program and the coaches."
Stratton, who recorded 27 shutouts the last two seasons, was one of three Tupelo players to sign national letters. Midfielder Abby Phillips signed with MississippiState and midfielder Bryson Rial signed with NCAA Division II Ouachita Baptist.
Phillips, who had six goals and six assists this year, committed to MSU prior to her junior season.
"I'm so excited to be playing Division I," she said. "I know it's going to be tough, but it's worth it."
Rial, who had six goals and seven assists, had some Division I looks, but wasn't sure she had the commitment to mix that level of play and her studies.
"At Ouachita Baptist I'll have time to do both," she said. "I'm excited about that."
Another Lady Wave player, midfielder Smith Ann Chiles, signed earlier this season with Jones CommunityCollege.
Amory forward Addie Forbus made it official with Ole Miss, after committing to the Rebels in her sophomore season.
"Everything about Ole Miss was enticing. It was impossible not to choose them," Forbus said. "It's a sigh of relief for it to finally be official.
I'm ready to get there and get to work."
Forbus, the state's career leader in goals with 231, also led the state with 50 goals this season and had 15 assists. Forbus previously led the state in goals with 52 in her sophomore season.
"It's a great opporunity for her, and she's going to be able to make an immediate impact with their program," Amory coach Nathan Clayton said. "She brings a lot to the plate, not just with her performance on the field, but with her character off the field."
Tupelo High distance runner Madison Nash, the team captain on this year's Lady Wave cross country team, signed a letter of intent to run for Delta State.

New Hard Drive
Posted 07 October 2012 - 09:37 AM
However, when my husband told me that he's getting me a new Hard drive and to make sure I have everything backed up I immediately thought of Scrapgirls ... so hopefully someone can help me.
I have copied over copious amounts of 'stuff' but my problem is that I have created quite a few (about fifty) actions on PS3 and I don't know how to save them to a format that I can copy over. I really don't want to have to recreate them all again once I'm up and running on my new HD but after lots of research I'm not sure how to change my actions to .ATN files so that I can save them?
Anybody able to help? Do I need to buy a new programme to do this?
Thanks in advance!!

I was half-way through replying to this and did got a PM which side-tracked me. If you do a search for saving photoshop actions, you will find several tutorials that explain how to do it.
April, you are super Thanks so much for including the software that you have used and currently use. Now we know what type of questions you might be able to help out with. I see a lot of posts from members that just say "sorry I don't use/know that software but someone else will be along that can help you out". This information will already let us know that and no need for a post.
Now did you just add that in the same area where you enter your name signature/siggies links? I would like to do the same as you did.
Yep, I figured it out

Rocketfish Mobile - Earbud Headphones - Black
"Rocketfish is the Best Buy house brand of audio components/accessories. When I picked these up I was getting sick of the 'pinched' sound of my CX300ii series B, or whatever name Sennheiser has attached to them. By 'pinched' I mean boosted in the wrong places of the spectrum. I don't believe in spending $500 on iems that are going to be sweated on, tossed in a gym bag and otherwise abused. Hell..." --Mach-X
Kanen KM-92 Wooden In-Ear
" Was generally attracted to these headphones by the wooden look and the odd buds at the end. Fifteen minutes later I was fairly shocked at the big package I got in such a small one. While these are great for portability, they are annoying when they get tangles (but that happens to all of them unless they are self retractable). All in all, great earbuds. " --thatnewguy15

text: Has anyone tried to make thier own BB bumpers using a 3" bumper for better visibility at longer disatances? Using the metal insert from the original BB bumpers I don't have the tools or skill to make those myself. My idea was to take a 3" bumpers put the insert in it and as close to perfectly centered as I could and fill the rest of the bumper with expanding foam. Would this be too heavy and make for very short throws or could it work? Those BB bumpers are very hard to see past about 150 yards unless you have the perfect background.

ORIGINAL: mark hay
3 or 4 years back some bonehead was mushroom hunting on private property , wearing a white sweatshirt , before noon, which is unloading time for turkey hunters , and had the misfortune of meeting up with another bonehead that didn't identify his target ,,,and he shot the shroom hunter. no excuse for either party involved there .
I will apologize in advance if this takes the conversation in the wrong direction. This is not directed at you as a person, mark, only your thinking in this area.
To imply that the mushroom hunter in the white shirt was is some way responsible for being shot is outrageous. Unless you are coming in my bedroom window at 3:00 am to borrow my skill saw, you do not bear any responsibility if I accidentally shoot you!
I have been interrupted in mid-hunt by hikers, mushroomers, farmers and mountain bikers, on public and private land. None of them were asking to be shot. If you pick up a firearm, you accept responsibility for every living thing within your range.
Again, I find us spending time on skewed logic. Lawful hunters with excellent firearms discipline are the key to eliminating hunting accidents. The fact that shootings continue to decline in the face of more turkey hunters, using more lethal loads, and aggressive tactics proves it.
I do not deny that being defensive is a good way to reduce your risk, but we need to stop the "shooting victim blame game". We also need to accept that hunter mortality is far more dependent on our health than it is on whether we use hevi-shot or decoys.

Prevalence of diabetes mellitus, especially of Type 2, is on the increase. This rise is most marked in developing countries, Malaysia included. The increasing number of people with diabetes is compounded with the added burden of the chronic complications of the disease which remain an important cause of morbidity and premature mortality for those affected, and a huge challenge to healthcare providers.
To help address these issues, the national Diabetes institute (naDi) of Malaysia, organises the Continuing professional Development (CpD) annually since its inception in 2002. And for this year, naDi is organising the "Diabetes Complications" Conference & Grand Rounds to specifically focus on diabetic complications.

It's getting ugly for J.C. Penney (JCP). The beaten-down retailer has dropped 6.2% to $7.89 at 12:44 p.m., which would be its lowest closing price since Mar. 9, 1982.
What more can you say about the train wreck JC Penney has become? It said it didn't need to raise capital, and then diluted its shareholders by selling stock. Goldman Sachs raised questions about JC Penney's debt, and credit-default swaps appear to confirm the investment bank's view. Not even the launch of Disney (DIS) stores within JC Penney locations have been able to boost its shares, as if Mickey Mouse could lift anything with those string-bean arms.
Unfortunately, I can't get a chart going back 30-years, so this one will have to do. It show's JC Penney's 67% plunge during the past 12 months. Enjoy!

Collection Overview
The Hyde Collection offers a world-class group of works that span almost six thousand years of art history from antiquity to the present. The Museum's founders, Louis and Charlotte Hyde, acquired the majority of objects during a fifty-year period of avid and highly informed collecting. Many of these works are displayed in Hyde House, the founders' former home, as well as in the Museum's modern exhibition galleries.
The permanent collection consists of approximately 3,000 paintings, works on paper, sculpture, and decorative arts, including furniture and textiles. When the Hydes began collecting, their focus was not unlike that of their contemporaries. They acquired Old Master paintings and drawings by such artists as Botticelli, Claude Lorrain, El Greco, Rembrandt, Rubens, and Tiepolo. In their most important decisions, notable scholars William R. Valentiner and R. Langton Douglas often guided them. The Hydes also assembled a significant group of works by important American artists including Eakins, Hassam, Homer, Peto, Ryder, Vedder, and Whistler.
To further enhance their growing art collection and the Italian Renaissance-style villa they built in 1912, the Hydes acquired sixteenth-century French and Flemish tapestries and furniture dating from the sixteenth century, most notably an Italian cassone decorated with the four cardinal virtues as well as late-eighteenth-century Neoclassical French seating furniture and marquetry desks.
After the death of her husband in 1934, Mrs. Hyde continued to acquire new works of art. In fact, approximately two-thirds of the core collection reflects her personal decisions and tastes. It was also during this time that she decided to broaden the scope of the collection, acquiring additional works by such modern masters as Cézanne, Degas, Picasso, Renoir, Seurat, and van Gogh.
It is in the areas of late nineteenth-century and modern American and European art that the Museum's collection continues to grow most rapidly. Since the founders' collection was opened to the public on a permanent basis in 1963, the Museum has continued to acquire works of art by bequest, gift, and purchase. The fasting growing area of the collection is twentieth-century art, and the Museum boasts works by such artists as George Bellows, Stuart Davis, Dorothy Dehner, Arthur Dove, Lyonel Feininger, Adolph Gottlieb, Keith Haring, Barbara Hepworth, Wassily Kandinsky, George McNeil, Ben Nicholson, John Henry Ramirez, Diego Rivera, Georges Rouault, David Smith, Max Weber, and Abraham Walkowitz. The Hyde continues to expand and grow its core collection of Old Masters, as well as nineteenth- and twentieth-century art, with a particular focus on American Impressionism and Modernism.

Sequoia Healthcare District continues to collect property tax
Original post made by Jack Hickey, Woodside: Emerald Hills, on Mar 4, 2013
___The voter intent of that 1946 election was to create a Hospital District, with authority to assess taxes, which would oversee the construction, operation and maintenance of Sequoia Hospital. It was expected that the hospital would become self supporting, and that continued tax assessments would become unecessary. History shows that after 67 years, taxation continues. It will also show that Sequoia Hospital, under the stewardship of CEO Art Faro, was operating in the red to the tune of $29 Million at the time of the 1996 sale. Web Link
___The District, which has morphed into the Sequoia Healthcare District, is now engaged in philanthropic activities never intended by voters in 1946. Two San Mateo County Civil Grand Juries (2001-2002) have exposed this situation.
___The Sequoia Healthcare District's continued collection of property taxes appears to be based upon a "Tax Revenues" agreement buried in the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) Web Link referenced in the election documents, which states:
___"District shall on an ongoing basis retain one hundred percent (100%) of its Tax Revenues, and shall utilize those funds, net of District's operating expenses, in furtherance of its purposes as a California hospital district (District Purposes"), through:
a. Programs and other activities provided or operated by Corporation and approved by District;
b. Programs and other activities provided or operated by other parties and approved by District; or,
c. Programs and other activities provided or operated by District;
provided, however, that no such programs or other activities funded by District's Tax Revenues shall be programs or other activities that duplicate the programs, activities or services of the Hospital."
It should be obvious that the decision for such retention of Tax Revenues by the District should be made by voters, and should have been made clear in the primary election material.
In the following year, a revisionist History of Sequoia Healthcare District was created with guidance from former Sequoia Hospital CEO Art Faro. Web Link

Family: Lycaenidae, Gossamer-wing Butterflies view all from this family
Description The Lotis Blue butterfly has not been seen alive since 1983. It is only known from a few sites of a rare coastal bog type of habitat near Mendocino on California's north coast.
Dimensions 1" (25 mm).
Endangered Status The Lotis Blue, a subspecies of the Northern Blue, is on the U.S. Endangered Species List. It is classified as endangered in California. This subspecies is thought to be extinct. It is a native of coastal bog habitats of northern California, and was last seen in 1938. While the decline of many of California's butterfly species can be directly attributed to the effects of urbanization and development, the causes of this butterfly's probable demise are less clear. The bog habitats it was known to frequent are themselves rare, and they are transitional, a median step in the gradual drying out of ponds. Droughts may have hastened the drying out process, and human activities have probably also played a role in habitat loss. Researchers continue to search for the Lotis Blue and to study its habitat for clues to where it has gone, and why.
Habitat Freshwater swamps, marshes & bogs.
Range California.

text: Is it just me or does anyone else think that the Wookie Bowcaster Blaster in Jedi Knight II is extremely lame and inaccurate? I mean, the Bowcaster shoots metal rods that are laced in energy to go extreme speeds, right? So why the heck does the Bowcaster in JKII shoot those little energy balls? The Bowcaster is supposed to shoot like a real crossbow, where you have to load a new rod after each shot. They should have just made it accurate to how it should be, stuck a scope on it, and made it into the snipering weapon for the game. I'm usually not this over critical when it comes to stuff in the Star Wars universe, but this really ****ed me off for some reason. Anyone got any feedback?

A Look Inside a Savannah Bed & Breakfast Inn
By Cathy Rodgers
A friend of mine virtually introduced me to a local innkeeper who runs a Savannah Bed & Breakfast on beautiful Gaston Street, so I could not wait to get by to meet her in person. Gardens always motivate me and peeking behind a secret pathway to view cozy sitting areas and new plants got me there quick.
Kathleen Dupois is the proprietor of the Olde Savannah Inn, one of the finest bed and breakfast establishments I've ever stepped into. I was truly amazed to find not only beautiful antiques, but amazing chandeliers and French decor which compliments the mansion without overdoing it.
My favorite spot is the fresh and bright breakfast room which allows visitors to look out to the gardens. Can you believe I forgot my camera? I "borrowed" this photo of the breakfast room from the net, and can tell you the room does look like this! It's amazing and Southern Living magazine really needs to come and see! Then I found out what Kathleen serves at her breakfast celebrations. Who else has a candlelight breakfast and serves Creme Brûlée in the morning??
Kathleen took me upstairs to the honeymoon suite and my jaw nearly dropped! Steps away from the four post bed, marble floors take you to a large jacuzzi tub, two pedestal sinks and his and hers claw foot tubs.
This is where we will be sending our out of town guests and inquiring visitors. Did I mention the 800 count sheets? True elegance and luxury.

I feel a great disturbance in the Force.
Weird, the East side of the country seems to like the Bridgestone ad slightly more than the VW SW one.
The Bridgestone one, if you don't remember, is the driver that narrowly avoids running over a beaver thanks to the nimble power of his Bridgestone tires, only to be saved by the same beaver in the same location a year later by blocking him from driving over a destroyed bridge.
Does the Bridgestone ad suggest that the driver would have killed the beaver if he were running Goodyears, and that later he himself would have been killed when there was no beaver there to stop him from driving onto the destroyed bridge? A dark statement indeed! "Buy Goodyear and karma will kill you."

John Day Fossil Beds
National Monument
A unique treasure is concealed in the sculpted exposures of sedimentary rock of the John Day River Valley in central Oregon. Here are some of the richest fossil beds in the world, and they contain a record of remarkable continuity. Fossil beds that span even five million years are rare. Yet in this valley, the fossil record shows more than 40 million years of the diverse plant and animal life that existed here 45 million to 5 million years ago (mya). R.W. Chaney, a paleobotanist, once wrote that
land populations, both plant and animal, than the John Day Basin."
Fossil beds contain vestiges of the actual soils, rivers, ponds, watering holes, mudslides, ashfalls, floodplains, middens, trackways, prairies, and forests. The rocks are rich with the evidence of ancient habitats and the dynamic processes that shaped them; they tell of sweeping changes in the John Day Basin. Great changes, too, have taken place in this area's landscape, climate, and in the kinds of plants and animals that have inhabited it. And it is all recorded in the fossil record.
- Clarno Formation (50 - 35 mya)
- Tropical to subtropical forests mantled the local terrain some 50 to 35 million years ago. We know of these forests because of a splendid sample of fossil seeds, nuts, fruits, leaves, branches, and roots. The Clarno nutbeds are among the finest fossil plant localities on the planet, with hundreds of species, many new to science, preserved. The conspicuous mammals were the browsing brontotheres and amynodonts, conspicuous because of their great size and ungainly appearance. Impressive too, were the strong-jawed scavengers, hyaenadonts, and ruggedly framed predators such as Patriofelis. Although a few of these animals lived into the early Oligocene (34 mya), they have left no modern descendants.
John Day Formation (37 - 20 mya)
- The John Day Formation spans more than 15 million years. Even a cursory examination reveals that many types of environments existed in this landscape.
Deciduous forests replaced the earlier subtropical forests of the Clarno Formation. Numerous fossil plant localities containing a great number of different species indicate the vast biological diversity of the early Miocene epoch. More than 100 groups of mammals have been found in this formation as well, including dogs, cats, swine, oreodonts, horses, camals, rhinos, and rodents.
Multiple volcanic events during the deposition of the formation produced large amounts of volcanic ash. The resulting tuff, interspersed throughout the fossil-bearing beds, allows determination of accurate radiometric dates. The chronology derived from the tuff helps scientists determine the rate at which plants and animals changed as they evolved.
- Mascall Formation (15 - 12 mya)
- The interval between deposition of the John Day and Mascall times was marked by intermittent flows of basaltic lava that repeatedly leveled and denuded the region. By 15 million years ago, these eruptions had ceased and the basalt was weathering into soil. A moderate climate, sufficient precipitation, periodic deposits of volcanic ash, and the basaltic parent material combined to produce highly fertile soils, and from these soils arose lush, nutritious grasses and mixed hardwood forests, much like those found today in the eastern United States.
The Mascall savanna was home to a great variety of animals that we might recognize as horses, camels, and deer, as well as bears, weasels, dogs, and cats. Some dwelt in the woodlands, while others adapted to the grasslands. At the same time large mammals made a resurgence. Among them were the gomphotheres (early elephants), as well as sizable rhinos and bear-dogs.
- Rattlesnake Formation (8 - 6 mya)
- Named for Rattlesnake Creek, a minor tributary of the John Day River, the coarse deposits of the Rattlesnake Formation complete the paleontological story of the John Day Basin. Though they contain considerably fewer fossils than the Clarno, John Day, or Mascall formations, fragmented fossils have been found of horses, sloths, rhinos, camels, peccaries, pronghorns, dogs, bears, and others. It is an interesting population, with some species resembling those of today, and others those of a distant past. A preponderence of grazing animals over browsers suggest a much dryer and cooler climate, dominated by grasslands. These strata represent the last major episode of deposition in the basin. Erosion then began and continues to sculpt the landscapes of today.
Reconstructing the Past. The John Day Basin was first recognized as an important paleontological site in the 1860's, thanks to the ability of a young frontier minister, Thomas Condon, who recognized the fossil beds as a scientific treasure. At the time, paleontology, the study of ancient life, was still a new science. However, discoveries such as Condon's galvanized scientific interest. By the late 19th-century, researchers at Yale, Princeton, and the Smithsonian Institution had requested and received hundreds of specimens from the John Day Basin. They were then classified and described in the scientific literature. This early work set the stage for field paleontologists such as John C. Merriam, who in 1899 began the task of placing the John Day fossils in their geological, chronological, and paleoecological context. His efforts were instrumental in the preservation of this area.
Exploration and study of the John Day fossil beds continues today. In many of the beds, the fossils are widely scattered, and their occurrence cannot be predicted. Many types of fossils deteriorate rapidly once erosion exposes them to the elements. Thus the fossil beds are continually canvassed by paleontologists.
Each year hundreds of specimens are added to the National Park Service collection. Many of the items are mere fragments (a few teeth, for instance) but each specimen is accompanied by a wealth of field data:
- coordinates that pinpoint both its geographical location and the stratigraphic position,
- descriptions of features where it was deposited, and other data about its recovery.
Such collection efforts have provided researchers with scientifically significant samples, which open up intriguing avenues for research.
- Paleontologists can now detect subtle shifts in the composition of ecosystems through time.
- Researchers have identified and studied some ancient soils preserved in the John Day Basin and, from a distance of millions of years, are able to gauge former climatic conditions such as temperature.
- Sedimentologists map the orientation of bones in a Clarno Formation quarry, and thereby plot the eddies, backwaters, and gravel bars of a river that flowed 37 million years ago.
- Paleobotanists determine the rate at which plant communities evolved.
- A biostratigrapher dates the last known occurrence of a fossil primate in North America.

Family: Falconidae, Falcons view all from this family
Description ADULT Tundra race (ssp. tundrius) has dark blue-gray upperparts and pale, barred underparts. Note the dark facial mask (dark "mustache" extends well behind eye and borders white cheek) and powerful, yellow legs and feet. In flight, from above, looks rather uniform; from below, pale underparts are barred, and contrast between pale cheeks and throat, and dark "mustache" is usually striking. Interior ssp. anatum is similar, but underparts are flushed peachy buff. Pacific race (sometimes released in east, outside its normal range) is similar, but pale elements of underparts are flushed buff, and dark on head is more extensive (white on cheek is reduced). JUVENILE Similar to adult, but upperparts are brownish while paler underparts are suffused with buff.
Dimensions Length: 15-21" (38-53 cm); Wngspn: 3' 4" (1 m)
Habitat Once widespread in open habitats, pesticides decimated interior populations in 1960s by thinning eggshells. Reintroduction program is aiding recovery here. Tundra populations, less affected by pollution (except in winter), remain stable and these birds winter further south and are those most usually to be seen in coastal east. Many large towns and cities in east also have resident, breeding pairs.
Observation Tips Panic attacks in winter flocks of waders and ducks may mean that a hunting Peregrine is nearby.
Range Florida, Southwest, California, New England, Western Canada, Alaska, Great Lakes, Southeast, Rocky Mountains, Northwest, Eastern Canada, Texas, Plains, Mid-Atlantic
Voice Utters a loud kek-kek-kekÖ call.
Discussion Robust and stocky falcon. Soars on broad, bowed wings, but stoops at phenomenal speed with wings swept back after prey, such as pigeons. Often perches for long periods on clifftop outcrops or manmade structures, such as pylons or tall buildings. In flight, long, broad-based and pointed wings, stocky body, and long tail are good features. Striking head pattern and contrast between dark upperparts and paler, well-marked underparts are useful in identifying perched birds. Geographical variation in plumage confuses matters but, given this, sexes are similar, although female is appreciably larger than male.

All the speculation that Google is going to overthrow the H.264 video compression standard with their own VP8 technology for their WebM standard appears to have been debunked by Google. Google has confirmed that there is no current intention of removing H.264 support from YouTube or Android OS with the following statement.
"The announcement is only about the way video is handled within the Chrome browser. It does not affect YouTube or Android."
I think we can finally drop any pretense that Google's motive is about promoting WebM/VP8 "openness" based on the following facts.
Google will continue supporting H.264 in Chrome delivered via Flash or Silverlight.
Only Google Chrome's HTML5 mode will remove H.264 support.
YouTube will not give up on H.264 which should have been blatantly obvious. All those Blu-Ray and other network players have hardware baked in for decoding YouTube H.264, and Google is not going to cede the Apple iOS, IE, and Safari market for streaming video for VP8 which is clearly inferior in video quality according to video experts like Eugenia Loli-Queru.
So what can we conclude from this? Seems like Google is only interested in derailing HTML5 by passing this off as "openness" and claiming they're merely trying to promote open source codecs. Google is so in favor of openness that they're going to ensure that proprietary technology like Adobe Flash and Microsoft Silverlight will continue to be the dominant video delivery platforms. That ultimately hurts Apple iOS due to Apple's unwillingness to support Flash and Silverlight or anything that can compete with the Apple App Store. That's why it is reasonable to conclude that one of the key motives for Google is to harm Apple by derailing HTML.

I needed to obtain the firmware for my KWorld ATSC 115 which uses the nxt2004 demodulator. The kernel module saa7134 requires the nxt2004 firmware to operate correctly. In the past the process to obtain the firmware was easy, but now that avermedia-usa now longer makes available the driver, it was much harder to track down the need firmware file.
The problem:
m2n:~ $ /tmp/get_dvb_firmware nxt2004 --2012-07-06 22:51:22-- http://www.avermedia-usa.com/support/Drivers/AVerTVHD_MCE_A180_Drv_v188.8.131.52.zip Resolving www.avermedia-usa.com... 126.96.36.199 Connecting to www.avermedia-usa.com|184.108.40.206|:80... connected.

I figured I could just search for AVerTVHD_MCE_A180_Drv_v126.96.36.199.zip or dvb-fe-nxt2004.fw and be in business. Unfortunately, it was not that easy as it took me over an hour to find the file.
I came across linux-firmware-nonfree_1.11_all.deb which contained nxt2004.fw
Since it was so hard to find the firmware file I decided to mirror it along with the original deb package that I got it from.
To Install:
wget http://pyther.net/files/firmware/nxt2004/dvb-fe-nxt2004.fw
cp dvb-fe-nxt2004.fw /lib/firmware
- reload appropriate module or reboot
- check out dmesg to confirm firmware was loaded
Hope this has helped someone…

Good post mark, I like the way you approach this.
Good post mark, I like the way you approach this.
I would like to see a video of the dog stopping in FTP. Videos are easy to make and post these days. Then I think we could have a better idea of the best solution.
If the dog is not stopping at all on blinds in the field (which is what I got out of the OP), then I am not sure about Howards solution either.
If the dog isn't being corrected for loopy, slow sits, blowing whistles on FTP then he won't improve by going to the field. As mjh said, sitting immediately in front of the pile is crucial. Just MHO.

Thank you for the great advise. Yesterday and today we ran the simple cold blinds. Got several corrections in, and did see an attitude change yesterday. Today went a lot better, only had one whistle in which I felt needed correction, and her attitude was back up, like I had expected. She is a high drive dog and usually always bounces back after the pressure yesterday.
I am going to move back to the pile tomorrow and try to get a video posted.
Thanks again
I assumed the dog knew how to sit on a whistle. If not then Marc is probably right and the dog needs to go back further. If not then lots of whistle sits starting out fairly close and working further out seems more appropriate for me. It's hard to give internet advice as I've never seen the dog or handler work together.Blowing Off WhistleLooking for suggestions on how to correct this with a dog through CC, FF, T,TT, swim by, and pattern blinds
Howard Niemi
You really gotta be careful about how high a pedestal you put your method, your accomplishments, your dog on. There's usually someone who's done more, somewhere. And they may have used a different method than you did! Chris Atkinson 2013
get your dog out and TRAIN! caryalsobrook 2013
Whats in the link below, IF the dog has a good "sit" comming out of the T and TT..
Then its up to YOU to keep the standard high with your sits on cold blinds, cause it can go away very easily if not maintained,,,
I REALLY like the information and Tips in the following link, and believe it works very well teaching the dog to HANDLE....
I'd do a bunch of walking sit drills, then do bb blinds, reestablish that the whistle means sit now, and then take that foundation back out to the field and use that skill in the field.

Not sure if this will work, I will check it tomorrow afternoon. And for some reason it seems on my PC the sound is off from the footage a little, or I am just sending too quickly. As you will hopefully see a couple more issues came up. For some reason she became confused on the left hand back and strangely enough a no go (geese flying over had her attention).This was after some marks as well so she was worn a little.
Edit: I guess I will have to shoot a shorter video tomorrow. I can't get this one on here. Says it is too large.

P.S. If you collect the .45's I reccomend the Emperors mini. I actually got rid of the Best Buy one to make room for it. It is truly a kick *** mini.

1. Late season gobblers can be lukewarm. In my opinion they are less likely to cover great distances or obstacles to get to you.
If you cannot set-up on his roost, I have another suggestion.
Maybe you can put yourself in a good position to follow him once he comes down. This means staying well concealed, moving in the shadows and using locater calls to keep him talking. Eventually you might be able to slip into his inner circle and start calling softly.
NOTE: I trust that you will use extreme caution and maintain situational awareness, Deano. To any new hunters (or seasoned ones for that matter), moving on a vocal turkey can attract other hunters. Every move you make must be done with an eye for danger. If there is even the slightest hint that you and another hunter are sharing the same area BACK OFF!
Ah, the S-word.
Let me just say that you are 100% correct in NOT following my advice above. Not only because of NJ law but because of your own assessment of the safety situation in the area you hunt.
I think i'll quit there.

SOUL by Ludacris SL49 Ultra Dynamic In-Ear Headphones (Silver)

I've been lame about keeping a diary. Always have been.
Well, Penzilla isn't open source yet. I really hope to see our work publicly available some day but I don't think we're close yet.
I'm spec'ing a new system for home (got to do something fun with my tax refund ;). As much as I would really like a dual-Athlon system I think I'll stick to just one. Epox makes an Anthlon mobo that has received great reviews and comes up clean in the Linux kernel mailing lists.
What distro will I install... tough question.
I've been a Red Hat user for several years, primarily because it's the one that I started with and many people I know run it for production systems. I'll admit to my love/hate relationship with RPMs. I'd had far less frustration downloading source and building it myself. Sure, you're fine if the packages come from Red Hat and you're applying them to a current version of the distro. But mix things up a bit and you've got major dependency problems.
I'm leaning towards Debian for two reasons: 1) apt and all the good things I hear about the deb packaging system; and 2) the Debian social contract. Debian is built and maintained by its users and is therefore the most democratic operating system available. And there's no questioning the quality. It's good to have some companies like (formerly) Corel and (recently) Xandros basing their commercial products on Debian because it endorses the quality of the product and help to expand its distribution through marketing and sales channels.
So I think I've convinced myself. Don't get me started on the KDE/Gnome choice. I really have a lot of trouble making up my mind on that one. We'll come to that fork in the road when I get Debian installed.

Thai Fight 2011 and Isuzu Tournament Update
- Written by Dave Walsh
For those who missed the introduction article, the winner of the ongoing 67 kg Isuzu Tournament in Thailand gets to represent Thailand in Thai Fight 2011, which kicks off this September. The Isuzu Tournament is about set to move from the groups stage to the semi-finals and finals.
There are two more fights scheduled in the groups: Kem Sitsongpeenong vs Kongjak Sor Tuanthong, and Prakaisaeng Sit-Or vs Thanongdet Petpayatai. Kem is heavily favored to beat Kongjak.
Thepsutin Pumpanmuang and Nopparat Keatkhamtorn have already been eliminated from the tournament. Thepsutin picked up a decision victory over Thanongdet, but was stopped by Prakaisaeng's knees in his next tournament bout. Nopparat went up against Kem was knocked out in the third by punches.
Sudsakorn 13 Coins Gym (out of Sor Klinmee camp) and Dernchonlek Sor Sor Niyom have both qualified to the semi-finals with two wins apiece. Sudsakorn beat Kongjak Sor Tuanthong and Kem Sitsongpeenong for his place. Sudsakorn's advancement did not surprise fans, though his win over Kem was considered a slight upset. Dernchonlek, however, was something of an unknown factor going into the tournament. The youngest fighter in the tournament, at 17 years of age, the combination of his height, style, and the weight advantage afforded by his relative inexperience helped him beat Prakaisaeng and Thanongdet.
Though the tournament portion of Thai Fight 2011 kicks off in September, giving the winner of the Isuzu Tournament plenty of recovery time, there will be three events held separately as part of the Thai Fight series. These events are planned for May, July, and December, and Yodsaenklai Fairtex and Saiyok Pumpanmuang are set to participate.

INPhO, the Information Network on Post-harvest Operations, was originally designed by FAO with the support and collaboration of GIZ and CIRAD in 1996. The site is currently undergoing a review and reformat to enhance the presentation and accessibility of the information available. This information resource is managed by the FAO Nutrition and Food Systems Division.
The principal objectives of INPhO are to promote good practice in post-harvest activities for agricultural products and to assist in the expansion of agribusiness by providing easy access to technical data and information.
Crop Compendium
Mango is an important fruit for inhabitants of the tropics, with India being the largest producer. The trees require a frost-free tropical or sub-tropical climate, are 10 to 40 m in height and evergreen. The fruit is produced seasonally and eaten fresh or used in various recipes. In recent years, mangoes have become well established as fresh fruit and processed products in the global market.
Latest Publication
This section provides access to Cookbook, Videos and Food Processing Toolkit covering relevant issues on agro-processing and post-harvest activities related to fruits and vegetables, grains and cereals, roots and tubers, livestock products among others.
The information provided in this section is intended to be used as an efficient tool to assist in skill enhancement and development in post-harvest activities and small agro-industries development.
The provision of effective training is a key aspect in promoting best practice in post-harvest operations to minimise losses and reduce waste in the development of agroindustries and/or agro-businesses.

Having used unorthodox methods to save a world - and every sentient being on it - Lieutenant Commander Kris Longknife is wanted across the galaxy for crimes against humanity. For her own safety, she's been assigned to a backwater planet where her Fast Patrol Squadron 127 enforces immigration control and smuggler interdiction. But Kris is a Longknife, and nothing can stop her from getting back to the center of things - not when all hell is breaking loose. Now she's on the run, hunted by both military and civilian authorities - and since the civilian authorities happen to be her immediate family, Kris soon finds herself homeless, broke, and on trial for her life on an alien world....
©2012 Mike Moscoe (P)2012 Audible, Inc.
I am an avid eclectic reader.
"Exciting Action"
In the last episode Kris Longknife was sent to a backwater station of Madigan's Rainbow to command the fast patrol squadron 127 on immigration control and hunting pirates.
Kris learns that her Grandfather Al, the family business mogul, is sending out a merchant fleet to attempt to trade with the new aliens Kris discovered in the last book.
She runs away from Madigan's Rainbow to go to Wardhaven to talk to Grandpa Al. She reunites with her bodyguard Jack and they nearly die in an attempt on Kris' life. She is hunted by everyone, her accounts are frozen, Nelly and kids are unable to connect to the net and both military and civilian authorities are after her. Kris decides to turn herself over to the government of Musashi. There are still repeated assassination attempts on Kris. She is placed on trial. Shepherd does a great job with the trial. Kris also wants to know what happened to the planet they saved and stop Grandfather Al's merchant fleet. Can she? The ending is a bit of a surprise and a good set up for the next episode.
The book is well written and moves at a very fast pace. Shepherd's quirky characters make the story seem more real. We have new characters in this book to replace those who died or are missing from the last book. The humor offset some of the assassination attempts. I cannot wait to read the next book in the series. Dina Pearlman does a great job narrating this series.
"Awesome Sci-fi series"
I am writing this because i think it is one of the best series books out there. Mike Shepherd always tells a good action packed story. This one has a female lead and she has some great friends that are willing to die for her and what she stands for. The narrator Dina Pearlman is also one of the best !!
"fast, don't put it down you might miss something"
this is Mike Shepherd's best so far. very fast. new twists and turns.
The ending. What a way to lead us on. I was wanting more, just one more chapter
Dina Pearlman's voice is clear and smooth. no gasping for breath.
laughter was all over this book.
try it. well worth the money.
1*=I didn't like it..... 2*=It was OK...... 3*=It was good but I will never read it again.......... 4*=Maybe I will read it again in the future.............. 5*=I will definitely read it again(maybe more than once)
After all this years and space battles, after all of this Political and diplomatic intrigue!!!
We are finally ready to see what we've been waiting for?!!!!
Kris has been hiding on the bottom of the bottle for a month, when she decides it is enough! She leaves the place of her "Exile" after she learns that everything was totally screwed up at home.
Jack is assigned to "Hell Freeze Over",
Kris is wanted for crimes against humanity on 160 planets,
King Ray's Union is coming apart at the seams, while he is trying to create a new fleet,
Grandpa AL chose the wrong time to go back to politics, and to open new trade routes
and Prime Minister released a warrant for Kris longknife.
Kris is a fugitive, Nobody even want to speak about homicidal aliens, and she doesn't know who she can trust.
Everybody want to know everything and to blame her, but nobody wants to listen!!!!
Expected publication: October 29th 2013
"Advanced the story a little"
This installment advances the story a little bit - not nearly as much as I would have liked, but it still advances it some.
If you liked the other installments in the series, you will most likely not be fully satisfied with this one, but you might not hate it altogether if you keep in mind that there will be more installments. It would probably not be your favorite; but then again, it might - one man's meat being another man's poison.
Find out what other reviewers think before you decide - it might help you make up your mind. If you haven't read the books from the beginning, I suggest you start there.
Yes, Fantastic adventure
Kris but Trouble is closing
Yes, I do like Dina Pearlman's reading however i thought this one was just a tad too fast, not much but just a little. Fantastic character renditions.
Teared up a little when Kris was... can't spoil it sorry.
Just great work, imagination and skill to pull of such an outrageous story line. Is there a little time warp we can do to get at the next one?
"Exciting Blend of Military SF, Romance, World Building and Political Thriller"
This is one of my favorite Kris Longknife books! When Furious begins we find Kris at perhaps her lowest point of this series. She is separated from Jack Montoya, her friends, her command and her freedom. Kris is in legal trouble on over 150 planets for starting a war with an unknown superior alien enemy to protect a planet of aliens from annihilation. Kris and Jack had just finally kissed for the first time. Now she is isolated on a planet far out in the system and Jack is exciled to "Hell Froze Over".
This book is a thrill ride of escape, reunion, trial and finding a way to fight to protect her worlds. Furious has Mike Shepherd's wonderfully appealing characters, his great world building and his delightful humor. We see Kris and Jack try to develop their relationship while running from capture, finding a way to clear Kris and building a fleet of ships and personnel to face the alien threat. Oh, she also faces a trial for treason with the death penalty.
"A fairly good addition to the series."
The characters continue to develop, albeit slowly, in the latest addition to the Longknife series. It seems to me to be a book of two parts. The first, a detective type story, is interesting but a little out of place and long winded. It's the old 'getting found out - getting away' sequences repeated a few times. Nice to see everyone getting back together however so it is reasonably OK. The book moves on in the second half - no explanation as spoilers - and the pace hots up. A great ending finishes the book leaving us wanting explanations and a lot more - just like the latest book in a series should do!
Kris Longknife favorite character
Favorite scene was when she contacted long lost grandmother
When Kris got the Wasp II, and people were lining up to join the crew.
Could have done without the excessive lovey dovey stuff between Jack and Kris, other than that..
"great action packed book"
yes would have put print version down after one chapter
no book is a little past believable but that's my friends
the trunk escape
unbelievablely action packed
this is real a great book in the longknife saga
"wonderful uncomplicated and a brilliant narrator"
Now on my 10th book of the Kris Longknife, the familiar cast fits perfectly and Dina Pearlman has a wonderful way of bringing things to life. The story keeps evolving and never gets dull. looking forward to the next book.

Shares of General Motors (GM) were down nearly 2% in recent trading, on news that the Canadian government is looking to sell its multibillion stake in the automaker.
According to Sky News, "officials have asked investment banks to pitch in New York in the coming days for the mandate to execute a sale of Canada's roughly 10% shareholding in GM, which is split between the national and Ontario municipal governments."
However, as of yet the timing of the sale isn't clear—it may not begin for months, and the selloff may take place in several stages.
With a stake of about 10.2%, Canada is one of GM's largest shareholders. The U.S. Treasury holds a little more than 14%.
The shares are up more than 85% in the past year. Last week GM reported a better-than-expected second quarter.

YAY I'm totally going to use this
This looks sweet, can I download it and install it with ifile
Got it working after a reboot.
4S was insanely laggy. Unusable !
Removed the syslogd from cydia and it also removed wallpaper log with it .
Good riddens...
The only good thing that came from this was reminding me to install ifile..
Dont risk a restore. Stay away. Needs much work
Everyone, this is only useful for developers so don't complain if you hate it or you don't know what it does
I'm so happy to see this working!! It was my idea to him. It's based off XLOG in the Mac AppStore (check it out!). He made this like two hours after I suggested it to him which is amazing on his part.
(link to tweet so you know I'm not making up stories...yes my names AJ Spatz...)

some weird **** going on in tampa, schiano is nuts. I'd get rid of um.
Is it me or does this sort of remind you (just a little) of the Saban tenure ? Now that Freeman has been released, I wonder where he will go? Since teams are not on the hook for the high salary and picks, I think there will be teams interested, assuming they haven't been scared away by the supposed attitude and "leaked" step 1 status. I'd be interested in bringing him in with the phins if I didn't think it would create an unnecessary stink in the press and locker room. That's why I'm pretty sure we won't touch him. Jax or Minn would be stupid not to look at him, but I think they are maybe looking towards the draft already.
http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com...ks-foot-again/The Buccaneers got guard Carl Nicks back on the field a couple of weeks ago after a bout with a MRSA infection in his foot, but it looks like Nicks hasnt made it all the way out of the woods yet.
Mike Garafolo of FOX Sports reports that cultures taken from Nicks foot recently have come back with indications of MRSA. Bucs General Manager Mark Dominik told Garafolo that the infectious disease specialist working with Nicks believes that it is a recurrence of the initial infection as opposed to a new strain of the bug finding its way into Nicks foot.
Theres no word on what that might mean for Nicks availability, but its clearly not good news for a player who missed the first two weeks of the season while battling the infection the first time. Nicks also missed nine games last year, so his move to Tampa has featured a lot more visits to doctors offices than the touchdown springing blocks that the team had in mind.
And its also not good news for the Bucs who are already 0-4 and facing an NFLPA grievance filed by kicker Lawrence Tynes regarding their handling of Tynes MRSA infection in a season thats well on its way to being a total nightmare.
Not sure how much of this one is on Tampa, but this is pretty much the last thing they needed. As if that team doesnt have enough distractions.
Terrorist attack count against the Anything Goes Thread: 6
http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/98...taph-infectionA third Tampa Bay Buccaneers player has been diagnosed with an MRSA infection, the team said Friday.
The team did not reveal the player's identity.
Changed my mind, this is on Tampa.
What a disaster of a team.
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap200...mrsa-infectionTampa Bay Buccaneers rookie cornerback Johnthan Banks became the third member of the team diagnosed with a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection, NFL Media Insider Ian Rapoport reported Friday, according to two sources informed of the situation.

http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-sh...5746--nfl.htmlThe NFLPA vowed to uncover who leaked medical information about former Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback Josh Freeman. It is now accusing one person of being the informer.
Bucs coach Greg Schiano.
According to Tom Pelissero of USA TODAY Sports, the NFLPA wants the league to participate in a joint investigation that would allow union officials to question Schiano, who has denied any wrongdoing, about leaking information concerning Freeman's participation in the NFL's substance abuse program
Total meltdown.
Anyways, despite throwing 2 TDs, Mike Glennon showed why he's not going to be a good NFL QB. He even gets a hint that pressure is coming he panics on the throw
http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap200...tocratic-styleAnd yes, you'll notice I used the word men. That's because I've spoken to enough people who've played for Schiano during his two NFL seasons to conclude that he treats his players like children, which is a major reason he has lost his locker room.
"How bad is it there? It's worse than you can imagine," says one NFL player who spent 2012 with the Bucs. "It's like being in Cuba."
Several current Bucs players describe a similarly bleak environment in which the all-powerful, unyielding Schiano spews tone-deaf platitudes while demonstrating the personal charm of "Homeland" character Nicholas Brody....
Last year, Schiano alienated many of his players and staff members with tantrums like the one I described on "NFL GameDay Morning" last month. According to a current Bucs player -- in an account corroborated by another witness -- Schiano became enraged during a practice late in the 2012 season when special teams coach Bob Ligashesky walked onto the wrong area of the practice field during a drill.
Instead of merely telling Ligashesky to watch where he walked, Schiano launched into a loud tirade and threatened to fire him if he repeated the mistake. When Ligashesky was let go following the season, it was hard not to draw a connection between the tantrum and that decision.
"I think he just wants to flex his power," Bennett says. "He has small (man's) syndrome. I still talk to guys who are there, and trust me, there's not much respect for him in that locker room."
Schiano lost some respect during the summer of 2012 when, during joint workouts with the New England Patriots, he demonstrated a reverence for his friend and apparent idol, Pats coach Bill Belichick, that Bucs players found alarming.
"He gathered us before we practiced and told us that if Belichick said something to us on the field, we should listen," one current Bucs player recalls. "He said, 'Treat their coaches like they're your coaches.' We were like, 'Huh?' When we practiced together, whatever Belichick wanted, he did. It was hilarious -- here (Schiano) is, acting like Mr. Tough Guy all the time, and when Belichick wanted something, he was like, 'Yes, Bill.' "
Bennett, who laughs at the recollection, put it this way: "He's trying to be Belichick. Yeah, some people think Belichick's an (expletive), but he's a legend. When this guy acts that way, it's a whole different deal."
Now that Bennett has relocated to the Pacific Northwest, where Pete Carroll runs an unfailingly upbeat operation, the defensive end truly appreciates the difference in leadership styles.
"It's lovely here," Bennett says. "I can't even explain to people how it is here, compared to Tampa. They wouldn't believe me."
Yup, gonna have to watch the game tonight. It might be Schiano's last.
The Bucs are just terrible.
What is it with Florida and crappy football teams?

Pushing several would-be allies over the edge was the announcement this past Monday that Patrick's insurance commissioner, Nonnie Burnes, will end Massachusetts's decades-long experiment with auto-insurance-rate regulation. Instead of a state commission setting those rates, insurance companies will now have the freedom to compete, within limits. Liberal legislators, who argue that the current system protects poor, young, and urban drivers, have expressed shock that Patrick will usher in this change; they fear that insurers will raise rates most on those who can least afford it, and will punish drivers based on location, credit history, and factors other than one's driving record. Although Burnes says that she will protect against such outcomes, opponents still think this is a bad, anti-consumer idea that they believed had died when Mitt Romney left office.
This auto-insurance stunner, along with other perceived pro-business policies, has helped push progressive senators Joan Menard, Frederick Berry, Steven Panagiotakas, Marc Pacheco, Dianne Wilkerson, and Patricia Jehlen to sour on Patrick, to varying degrees. These are pols who supported Patrick's candidacy, and should be solid allies now that he is in office. "There are a lot of unhappy people in the building right now," says Wilkerson.
This dynamic is contrary to Patrick's public reputation, which was forged by the high-profile fight over closing corporate-tax loopholes. That battle cast Patrick as the populist, and the legislature — House Speaker Sal DiMasi in particular — as the corporate shill.
But aside from that one issue — which Patrick pushed for the fiscally conservative purpose of balancing the budget without adding new taxes on residents — the governor has embraced a string of what some see as corporate-friendly policies.
Patrick has taken heat, for example, for alleged "corporate welfare" in pushing a $10 million grant to the developers of Boston's Columbus Center. He enthusiastically supported, and this past week signed, new tax breaks for movie studios to film in the Commonwealth. He supports a sales-tax holiday, seen by some as a gift to retail chains with little benefit to the state. He has endorsed financial breaks to help those building the Boston University biotech lab and the Cape Cod wind farm. And in his bio-med/stem-cell bill, he intends to push a billion dollars of investment to companies and universities.
