In May this year we told you that Francis Roads should have been our nominated representative at this year's World Amateur, but there had been some miscommunications and that, at a very late stage, Sam Aitken had stepped in to represent us.
As you're probably aware our policy is that the person with the highest number of points in this table [1], subject to a number of conditions will normally be nominated. However, since we have a new British Champion in Andrew Kay Council has decided, in line with these, that Andrew will be our representative for 2013.
However, we recognise that Francis has a strong claim to be our next representative, so entrants to the 2013 British Championship should not assume that if there is a new British Champion that he/she will be the representative in 2014.
Finally, best wishes to you all and a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year.
Jon Diamond

text: I'm new to the forum and new to dog training. I recently bought a golden pup who is now 12 weeks and have just been working on obedience and introducing her to feathers. Ive read a lot about training and have seen different things about the dogs pedigree and being breed for hunting which she is not from ones breed for hunting. Has anyone tried training them for hunting that's not from a breeding line? Also any other tips or advice would be great! I've been using Tom dokkens book and videos.

|Worldwide Flyfishing Discussion Talk flyfishing with members around the world!
|Topic Review (Newest First)
|Oddly enough I have done most of my research on the web. It probobly would be a good idea to go into town and talk to some shops etc. and kick some tires. I'm sure they do evolve- heck, I guess I should just call the company and ask them- what theyve changed over the years. that would be a good place to start.
Have one
Juro, I have one. If you want to try it stop in when you come down to RI. I have the Sea Eagle six foot. I have a wooden floor for it, and a seat that goes across it. The problem I have with it is when coming in from outside the surf line it has two bosses on the bottom rear for attaching the outboard bracket, and these dig in the sand. Fishing in the salt ponds it works fine other than it is tough to row into the wind and tide. I do have a 2 hp motor for it, but that,s not perfect either as it is a long shaft, so you can't really go in shallow water. If you want to try it for a while, before you buy one pick it up.
Could be the case, they all evolve rapidly. I own the Bucks Bag "bronco" but the new ones are a lot different, hardly anything the same in fact.
Have you found a place that has them on the floor to look at?
I hope others who own them chime in.
quality of pontoon boats
Has the quality of pontoon boats gotten better over time? I've read older posts on the web about Creek co that werent all that great but lately I've heard nothing but good about them -
I'm considering a odc 1220 for lake fishing and only occasional moderately rough water (more towards gentle stuff) with a partner but wondering if it wouldnt be better to shell out the bucks for a Bucks Bag or other high end type of two man outfit -
of course shelling out the bucks might mean waiting untill I have them which would mean I wouldn't get to buy it untill next spring - and I am really wanting it for this fall.
What would be the worst that could happen If I went for the cheaper odc 1220?

Cracked me up. Last time I saw it things had changed a bit. (It's now under glass and sits on motion detectors with who knows what other security measures). ON the other hand, if someone stole it, what could they do with it? There are only eleven of them and anyone that might want it would NEVER be able to tell that they had it.

I am having eye problems; it started like an infection, I believe, but I have tested negative for all sorts.
I am having trouble getting (highly credentialed) doctors to believe what a dirty, nasty, germ-filled sport this can be! I would really appreciate an "insider's" list of outdoor-related infections. Please pm if you think you might have some ideas.
If anyone has had a similar experience on the patient side, I would appreciate that as well.

Tumors that produce too much thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH, or thyrotrophin) can cause the thyroid gland to become overactive, a condition known as hyperthyroidism. A TSH-producing tumor is one of the rarest types of pituitary tumors.
Pituitary tumors can also secrete reproductive hormones such as follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH). These are called gonadotropin-secreting tumors, and they are treated similarly to tumors that produce TSH.
If you have a TSH-producing tumor, your symptoms may include:
- rapid heart rate
- tremors
- unexplained weight loss
- increased appetite
- feeling too warm or hot
- trouble falling asleep
- anxiety
- frequent bowel movements
- a lump in the front of the neck (due to an enlarged thyroid gland)
If your doctor suspects a TSH- or gonadotropin-producing tumor, a blood test will be necessary to measure the levels of each in your blood. An MRI scan may also be used to determine the size and exact location of the tumor.
The primary therapy for both tumors that produce TSH and gonadotropin-secreting tumors is surgery. At Memorial Sloan Kettering, we use a minimally invasive approach called transnasal transsphenoidal resection to remove pituitary tumors. Surgeons are able to bypass brain tissue, operating instead through an incision inside the nasal passage. The risk for neurologic complications with this approach is very low, and the surgery leaves no visible scar.
If surgery alone is not curative, radiation therapy may be an option. Forms of radiation therapy we may recommend include stereotactic radiosurgery, in which special equipment is used to give a single large dose of radiation to a tumor. We may also recommend intensity-modulated radiation therapy, which uses radiation beams of varying intensity to precisely match tumor angles and shapes and thereby reduce the risk of damage to optic nerves and other delicate structures in this area.

By Chris Kieffer/NEMS Daily Journal
JACKSON – Fourteen Northeast Mississippi school districts were honored by the state school board association at its annual fall leadership conference on Tuesday.
The Mississippi School Boards Association's Lighthouse School Leader Awards Program recognizes districts for student achievement on state tests.
Thirteen Northeast Mississippi districts received the Lantern Award, the second highest one given. It goes to districts that have a B letter grade from the state with no schools below a C. Recipients included Amory, Booneville, Clay County, Corinth, Itawamba County, Monroe County, New Albany, Oxford, Pontotoc City, Pontotoc County, Tishomingo County, Tupelo and Union County.
Statewide, 31 districts received Lantern Awards.
"The Lighthouse winners have made student achievement job one," said MSBA Executive Director Mike Waldrop. "Boards and superintendents within these districts obsess about whether or not the children are learning, and, if not, why."
Clay County and Holly Springs each won Torch Awards, which are given to B schools in districts that have at least a C ranking with 90 percent or more of their students participating in the federal free- and reduced-lunch program. That program is for low-income students.
To win a Torch Award, districts must also have no schools graded F. Holly Springs High School and Holly Springs Junior High School both received the award with B grades, as did West Clay Elementary.
Four Mississippi districts were given Torch awards.
The MSBA's highest award is the Beacon Award, which is given to districts with an A grade. That award went to Clinton, Enterprise and Pass Christian schools this year.

Approximately 1 in 5 parents will become volunteer coaches for their child's team.
Before doing so, you will need to clarify both how your child feels about this decision and how you feel about taking on the hard work involved in being a coach.
Many parents mean well when they volunteer to coach, but don't fully realize how much time and effort it takes to do this successfully.
Some parents have found that coaching helps get and keep their children involved in soccer. Others find coaching their own children a recipe for disaster because the child resents the switch from nurturing parent to neutral or demanding coach who can't play favorites.
Even though coaching can be immensely fulfilling, it can also be a challenge, especially if you are dealing with your own child.
Part of successfully coaching your child means recognizing when it's time to have someone else take over the role, either because your child has progressed beyond your own skill level or because coaching has caused both of you frustration.
Not only does this mean avoiding favoritism, but it also requires not being tougher on your child than the other players.

Wood stated 'The release of sexuality in the horror film is always presented as perverted, monstrous and excessive; both the perversion and the excess being the logical outcome of repression.'
These ideas were fleshed out in the three part essay 'An Introduction to the American Horror Film' (Part I: Repression, The Other, The Monster; Part II: Return of the Repressed; Part III; The Reactionary Wing). This essay was published in The American Nightmare: Essays on the Horror Film, which was edited by Wood and his partner Richard Lippe. Wood was one of the first critics to note the overtly conservative nature lurking within the subtext of slasher movies. As a student of film studies, Wood's enthusiastic writings really captured my imagination, bolstered my love for the critical analysis of horror cinema and fed my passion for film - particularly with the essay mentioned above. For me, An Introduction to the American Horror Film opened up a whole new way in which to view horror films.
After graduating from Cambridge in the early Sixties, Wood became a teacher and began writing articles on film. When he contributed an essay on Hitchcock's Psycho to the highly reputable Cahiers du cinema, Wood began to contribute to film journal Movie. In 1965, after a spell of teaching in England, France and Sweden, Wood published his first book, Hitchcock's Films. This was actually the first book to be published about the filmmaker in English. In the early Seventies he lectured in film in Canada. In 1973, he returned to England and lectured at Warwick University as part of a groundbreaking project set up with the British Film Institute to introduce the concept of film studies to the UK university curriculum. During this time Wood and his wife, teacher Aline Macdonald, with whom he had three children, separated and he came out as homosexual. Returning to Canada in 1977 he became professor of film studies at York University, Toronto where he taught until his retirement in the early 1990s. During his time here, Wood helped form a critical collective involving students and colleagues and published their work in CineACTION!.
Wood would often draw on the critical theories of Freud and Marx and he was particularly interested in exploring the psychology behind the motivation of various film characters – especially those in Hitchcock's films. As an openly gay man, Wood's writings were also frequently quite political, and much of this stemmed from his essay The Responsibilities of a Gay Film Critic. His other works focused on filmmakers such as Ingmar Bergman, Claude Chabrol, Michael Antonioni and Arthur Penn. Various other titles include Hollywood from Vietnam to Reagan, Sexual Politics and Narrative Film: Hollywood and Beyond and Rio Bravo (BFI Publishing).
Wood died of leukaemia at the age of 78 and leaves behind his partner Richard Lippe, ex-wife Aline MacDonald and their three children Carin, Fiona and Simon, and five grandchildren.
He had a profound influence on the study of cinema.
'Why should we take Hitchcock seriously? It is a pity the question has to be raised. If the cinema were truly regarded as an autonomous art, not as a mere adjunct of the novel or the drama – if we were able yet to see films instead of mentally reducing them to literature – it would be unnecessary.' Robin Wood. 23 February 1931 – 18 December 2009

As a child, Anna Cleary loved reading so much that during the midnight hours she was forced to read with a torch under the bedcovers, to lull the suspicions of her sleep-obsessed parents. From an early age she dreamed of writing her own books. She saw herself in a stone cottage by the sea, wearing a velvet smoking jacket and sipping sherry, like Somerset Maugham.
In real life she became a schoolteacher, where her greatest pleasure was teaching children to write beautiful stories.
A little while ago, she and one of her friends made a pact to each write the first chapter of a romance novel in their holidays. From writing her very first line, Anna was hooked, and she gave up teaching to become a full-time writer. She now lives in Queensland, Australia, with a deeply sensitive and intelligent cat. She prefers champagne to sherry and loves music, books, four-legged people, trees, movies and restaurants.

Best Free Open Source Software For Windows 324
snydeq writes "InfoWorld surveys the FOSS-on-Windows landscape, detailing the 10 free open source solutions most likely to unseat proprietary offerings. 'Some, like TrueCrypt and VirtualBox, are real diamonds in the rough: enterprise-grade solutions that deliver many of the same bells and whistles of their commercial brethren, but for free. Others, like Firefox and OpenOffice.org, are already legendary, and their strong followings ensure their continued development and support at levels that rival the best proprietary solutions.'"

I have an idea of what I want and what's acceptable just wanna run it by some others to get some confirmation.

I remember reading a post a while back that had pictures.

Due to its greater rear head- and legroom, backseat passengers will be able to stretch out a lot more in the Lincoln MKT than the Toyota Prius v. As far as headroom and legroom go, there's not much difference between the Lincoln MKT and the Toyota Prius v in the front seats.
You'll be making about the same number of stops at the gas station with the Lincoln MKT as you will with the Toyota Prius v, as they get the same number of miles per tank of gas.
There are a lot of factors to consider when calculating the overall cost of a vehicle. The main consideration is Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP). The Lincoln MKT will definitely make more of a dent in your wallet than the Toyota Prius v, which has a much lower MSRP. Another consideration is the Destination Charge, which is a standard charge for transporting the vehicle to the dealer from where it's built. The Lincoln MKT will cost more in transportation costs than the Toyota Prius v.
Since the Lincoln MKT is much wider than the Toyota Prius v, finding a wide enough spot in a parking lot may be a bit more challenging. If you go with the Lincoln MKT, you may be circling the block looking for a space large enough to park more often than with the Toyota Prius v.
Due to its much higher torque, the engine of the Lincoln MKT does a much better job of transmitting power to the wheels than the Toyota Prius v.
The Lincoln MKT has a significantly larger turning radius than the Toyota Prius v, making it much more difficult to maneuver in and out of tight spots.
When it comes to horsepower, the Lincoln MKT has a much more powerful engine than the Toyota Prius v. However, something you should consider is that higher horsepower engines often command higher insurance premiums.
The Lincoln MKT offers greater seating capacity than the Toyota Prius v, making it a better choice for those who find themselves chauffeuring others around. The Lincoln MKT has a roomier cargo area for holding your bags or other items than the Toyota Prius v.
You'll have greater peace of mind with the more generous basic warranty of the Lincoln MKT than that of the Toyota Prius v.
Compare the 2016 Lincoln MKT and the 2017 Toyota Prius v.

I haven't commented in a while on the show, not from lack of enjoyment but from a very tight schedule in which I was barely able to find time to watch the show let alone comment on it.
The latest episode had me cracking up quite a bit. While I was upset that a 501st Clone Trooper was described as a Storm Trooper, I'm willing to allow that Alyson Hannigan made the mistake and not the writers, since they tend to reference Star Wars heavily and should know better. Barney's apartment was great, especially the bed. I was hoping, though, when he was trying to get the girl to leave he would point out that he has a full-sized Star Wars costume. And though I saw the second wall-sized television coming, it still made me snicker. I'm glad they never tell us what Barney does for a living.
The Marshall subplot was kind of goofy, but Ted and Robin's reactions were good for laughs.

Kruger did get hot to end the season.
Herein lies the truth though - not every good free agent can be acquired by this team. I can almost guarantee that Baltimore will try to re-sign him. I would be for it, though. He would require a very large contract.
I was thinking about him also but i think hes more of a 3-4 DE. Not sure if he can play DE on a 4-3 but i think he would be a great pick up if they feel he fits the system. Young and getting better each season but will probably cost 6-7 mil a year.
He's probably going to get tagged, they will sign their quarterback to a long term deal.
Doubt this happens but who knows. My guess is that most of our cap money will go towards picking up an impact player or two on offense (WR/TE). Considering the level of defensive line talent coming out this year, I think the rest of our efforts will go toward building through the draft.
Wake is a "young" player in terms of mileage.
Deshaun Watson is the TRUTH!
Wake actually plays the strong side...oddrick plays the weakside but he does play the lt face up alot ...he is never out really wide..thats wake role...i dont know that kruger could play face up against lts..they could of course play kruger at same then bring him to de on passing downs...i doubt it tho..i think his best fit will always be at olb..

Would be a nice addition, but I have a feeling the Fins address Pass rusher with their 1st pick, and I can't say I blame them.

Chapter 7: Organizing and Displaying Distributions of Data
The local arena is trying to attract as many participants as possible to attend the community's "Skate for Scoliosis" event. Participants pay a fee of $10.00 for registering, and, in addition, the arena will donate $3.00 for each hour a participant skates, up to a maximum of 6 hours. Create a table of values and draw a graph to represent a participant who skates for the entire 6 hours. How much money can a participant raise for the community if he/she skates for the maximum length of time?
This problem will be revisited later in the chapter.
When data is collected from surveys or experiments, it is often displayed in charts, tables, or graphs in order to produce a visual image that is helpful in interpreting the results. From a graph or table, an observer is able to detect any patterns or trends that may exist. The most common graphs that are used in statistics are line graphs, scatter plots, bar graphs, histograms, frequency polygons, pie charts, and box-and-whisker plots.

Israel can't help but be proud of its agricultural achievements, considering its small dimensions, minimal water resources and other challenges. The numbers speak for themselves: in the 1950s, one Israeli farmer fed 17 people; a little over 50 years later, that number is up to 95! Israel is constantly researching new products and technologies, which have allowed it to successfully till the arable 20 percent of Israel's 21,000 square kilometers.
Israelis like to think that the first "agro-tourists" were the biblical Joshua and Caleb who lugged a huge bunch of grapes to show the children of Israel the amazing fruits of this land. Israeli farmers delight in exchanging knowledge with special-interest visitors. The variety of its produce means that farmers from around the world find a common language with counterparts somewhere in Israel, whether it's the well-watered north, the subtropics around the Sea of Galilee, the arid lands in the Negev and the Arava, the coast, or fish-breeders (even that is done in the desert). Many of Israel's farmers are members of collectives (kibbutzim) or cooperatives (moshavim), with Arab farmers in the rural sector specialize in the raising of small livestock, vegetables, field crops and olives. There are also several still-thriving private-venture farms established in the 19th century. Getting to know the people behind the produce and making lasting connections are unforgettable aspects of an agriculture tour of Israel.
Initiative, innovation and wise land and water use, especially saline water to raise grapes, olives and tomatoes, among other crops, has placed Israel at the global forefront in arid-land agriculture. Warm desert winters provide an economic edge, allowing produce to be marketed a month or more the same crops are being harvested elsewhere. Surprising to some is the fact that flowers are Israel's number-one agricultural export. And good stewardship of the land is never forgotten – dairy-farming and other sectors are now transforming themselves into environmentally friendly enterprises.
An agricultural tour of Israel can be the opportunity to further your knowledge and interests, interspersing visits to the historical, religious and nature attractions that make Israel unique. For added value, consider timing your trip to one of the agricultural festivals or peak seasons in Israel: the Olive Festival in October, grape-picking in the summer, cherries in the late spring, and more.

This article originally appeared in the February 1, 1983 issue of the Boston Phoenix.
In Hitler's Germany, my Germany, childhood ended at the age of 10, with admission to the Jungvolk, the junior branch of the Hitler Youth. Thereafter, we children became the political soldiers of the Third Reich.
In reality, though, the basic training of almost every child began at six, upon entrance to elementary school. For me, that year was 1933, three months after Adolf Hitler was appointed chancellor. It was 50a years ago this week that Hitler came to power, and I have only a child's hazy recollection of the early years of his rule. But I vividly remember the wild enthusiasm of the people when German troops marched through my home town on March 7, 1936, in the process of taking back the Rhineland from the hated French.
I was born in Wittlich, a small wine-producing town just 20 miles east of the French border in the Moselle valley of the Rhineland. Under the 1919 Treaty of Versailles, the Rhineland had not only been demilitarized, but placed under French occupation for 15 years. When France's vastly superior army allowed fewer than 3000 German troops to re-enter the region without threatening to mobilize, the French handed Hitler the first of his bloodless conquests. There would be more appeasement ― over the Sudetenland, Austria, Czechoslovakia ― enough to convince Hitler he had become invincible, and that he could attack Poland with impunity. It was a delusion that may have cost as many as 50 million lives; certainly it changed the world.
None of this, of course, was apparent to the people of Wittlich in 1936. On that March evening, perched on the shoulders of my uncle, I watched a torchlight parade of brown-shirted storm troopers and Hitler Youth formations through a bunting-draped marketplace packed with what seemed to be the whole population. Clusters of people seemed to hang from the windows and balconies, and a continuous storm of "Heil Hitler" drowned out the music of the military band. Standing in an open Mercedes in front of the medieval city hall was the Führer himself, acknowledging the salute with an outstretched arm. It was the first time I had seen him, and I'll never forget the rapture he evoked. On that evening, he surely symbolized the promise of a new Germany, a Reich that had once again found it's rightful place in the sun.

Unlike our elders, we, the children of the '30s, knew nothing of the freedom and turmoil of the Weimar Republic. From our first day in school, we received an almost daily dose of nationalist instruction. It was repeated endlessly that Adolf Hitler had restored German's dignity and pride and freed us from the shackles of Versailles, the harsh peace treaty that plunged our country into more than a decade of bloody political turmoil. Even in working democracies, children do not question the veracity of what they are taught; we, who had never heard the bracing tones of dissent, never doubted that we were fortunate to live in a country of such glowing hopes.

Deeplinks Blog posts about DRM
Earlier this month we wrote about potential malicious behavior in Adobe's e-reader software, "Digital Editions." There were several independent reports claiming that Adobe's software was sending back to Adobe—in the clear—a list of books read in the software. There were also independent reports that the program was sending back lists of books on an attached e-reader, even if those books had never been opened in ADE itself—in other words, collecting information not just about the book you are reading now, but your electronic library.
Latest TPP Leak Shows US Still Pushing Terrible DRM and Copyright Term Proposals—and New Threats Arise
Today Wikileaks published a new draft of the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP)'s intellectual property chapter. This draft text, from May 2014, gives us another look into the current state of negotiations over this plurilateral trade agreement's copyright provisions since another draft was leaked last year. And what we're seeing isn't pretty. The TPP still contains text on DRM, ISP liability, copyright term lengths, and criminal enforcement measures, and introduces new provisions on trade secrets that have us worried.
The publishing world may finally be facing its "rootkit scandal." Two independent reports claim that Adobe's e-book software, "Digital Editions," logs every document readers add to their local "library," tracks what happens with those files, and then sends those logs back to the mother-ship, over the Internet, in the clear. In other words, Adobe is not only tracking your reading habits, it's making it really, really easy for others to do so as well.
Every few years, the White House updates its Strategy for American Innovation and asks for comments from the public. EFF's submission explains that overly restrictive intellectual property regimes can stifle innovation by limiting the ability of researchers to build upon existing knowledge. Our comments address three topics on that theme.
We've written before about how copyright is chipping away at your right to own devices you've bought and paid for—from e-books to toasters and even your car. Time and again, people who want to modify their own property or sell it to others are told that they can't, because their property comes saddled with copyrighted code they're not allowed to modify or give away when they are done with the device.

Documentary festival runs Sept. 26-Oct. 7
Posted September 23, 2005; 09:24 a.m.
The third edition of the Princeton Documentary Festival, which highlights Latin American and Spanish films, is scheduled for Monday, Sept. 26, through Friday, Oct. 7, in various locations around campus.
This year's theme, "Private Movies," focuses on the use of home movies or personal materials in the creation of documentary films. The selected films explore the public significance of private records; the ways in which documentaries address notions of "private life" and "home"; and how filmmakers transform their private obsessions into compelling public statements. These issues will be addressed through public screenings, classroom discussions and interactions with filmmakers.
A complete schedule is available online.
The event is sponsored by the Department of Spanish and Portuguese Languages and Cultures, Program in Latin American Studies, Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies and University Center for Human Values.

...wanted to refer in a paper to a "level-breaker" ... found my use of it was the second Google hit, I'd probably just started using the term without really defining it. So why not define it in a blog on my new Advogato account?
The first hit was in the TV Tropes wiki defining it as An event in the script or an uneven portrayal that wrecks the intended emotional tenor of a scene or an entire piece.. In software architecture, though, it is a pattern in which a well-defined clean layered architecture actually in practice had to be disrupted for, sometimes, good reason.
The URI bar in a browser is level breaker. It shows you the workings. The web architecture says you should be able to just browse in the hypertext document space, following links, but never explicitly aware of the URIs themselves. In fact, you need to be able to check on the URI. To decide whether to trust it. When things go wrong, to see who is to blame.
A TCP/IP socket API which allowed one to see details of the TCP window, or detaiuls of the Ethernet back-off level, would be a level-breaker.
Level breakers often mess things up in theory. A level-breaker which allows a programming language to peek at its own stack might suddenly make it theoretically a very different language. But it might be really useful at times. Especially when things go wrong.
I'll probably think of a bunch of better examples of useful level-breakers when I hit "Post". Slife.
Provenance is a useful level-breaker when a Semantic Web data browser allows you to ask which document produced the fact that you are just reading, and about to base an important decision on.

gr06 i think will suit you best , not a bass phone , really nice mids and a bit peaky highs , and i like those highs . only trouble is over the ear is the only way with gr06 .
and man , hf5 worth that push of $10 , at $110 you are getting gem of a phone . best balance for the price range . jhelsas has shared a well priced link too .
se215 is over priced , here it is $120 , and at the price i can get a gr06 and a ue500 . and image s4 is the least you need , least refined phone for $70 . unless you want big bass with
harsh high . MEE a161p , sadly is not available here .
Doesn't meelec ship worldwide from their site?
There's some work to be done on the scale and more customs incoming but I expect them to stay top 3 for a while .
can anyone tell me how ue700 fares? the sound quality and build
i have one here but have mixed feelings about it (sometimes sound very marvelous in my ears but at times can be irritating)
please ignore the price comparison between ue700 and triple fi 10 cos ue 700 is priced at S$189 and the latter is at S$649, though i noe amazon sell ue 700 at US$160+ currently
Sound-wise it's quite good though maybe not worth $150+ when you can get the Brainwavz B2 or Rock-It Sounds R-50, both superior tunings of the same driver in my opinion, for $120-140. Bass is linear but not very powerful as with all TWFKs. Treble is bright, I thought more so than B2 and definitely more so than R-50. I found the two different types of UE700s to sound different: http://www.head-fi.org/t/599247/heads-up-two-versions-of-the-ue700
Couldn't get a good over the ear fit with the A161Ps. I also sometimes like to lay on my side when I'm listening and the shell fo the A161P is a little large. Worried that a deep insertion tip may not be for me anyway. GR06 keeps coming up as a possibility but I did a lot of reading about Phonak 021/022s last night. Very interesting especially with the filters that change the sound signature. Might be a good starter for me so I can experiment and discover what signature I'm most comfortable with.
Besides relax time, I listen for hours at work, so comfort, isolation and build quality are important.
You won't be able to lay on your side with Etys, either.
FYI, the Phonak 021 only comes with 1 type of filters. Additional ones have to be purchase separately.

The BAZAAR: Géométrique Chic
PERSONAL STYLE Upper East Sider Veronica Webb knows a thing or two about versatility. The model and newly minted designer (she's developing a line with OpenSky.com) is constantly on the go, and has mastered the art of packing light. "I have to be able to wear each piece five different ways," says the mother of two young daughters. Webb gravitates toward pieces in strong colors from labels like Theory, Elizabeth and James, Sophie Theallet, Dries Van Noten, and Bottega Veneta. "Nothing makes it into my closet unless it's a star."
SARTORIAL STANDBYS "I love dresses. You're ready to go at a moment's notice." Other can't-live-without staples include Anna Baiguera ballet flats (Webb owns four pairs) and MiH jeans (she has more than a week's worth).
DESIGNER RELATIONS She's a longtime friend and muse to Azzedine Alaïa, so it's no surprise that her closet contains many of his high-style pieces. "Azzedine and his partner, Christoph von Weyhe, are my adopted parents," says Webb, who fondly recalls her first Alaïa piece, a black bodysuit. "I wore it for 10 years straight, until it fell apart." And after donating a number of her Alaïa hits to the Museum at FIT in New York, how many does she have left? "Never enough and too many to count."
SPRING CLEANING "I have a small closet, believe it or not, so I edit my wardrobe twice a year. I've got it down to a science."
WISH LIST "Anything red velvet, navy blue, chocolate brown, or Kelly green. I'll know it when I see it."
Pictured above: Givenchy by Riccardo Tisci gown. Webb's own. Circa jewelry.

Nagé people
Flores, Indonesia
Ancestral horse with two riders
[ja heda or jara heda]
19th century or earlier
120.0 (h) x 320.0 (w) x 50.0 (d) cm
Purchased 2010
National Gallery of Australia, Canberra
This monumental horse with a small pair of ancestor riders is an extraordinary sculpture. On tall wooden poles, it stood guard at the entrance to the clan temple, where sacred heirlooms are stored. The horse's flanks are deeply carved with decorative motifs similar to those on Flores textiles, gold jewellery and architectural facades. A spirit guardian, capable of conferring wealth and power, this huge creature represents a horse [jara] and a serpent-bodied naga with a powerful equine head and long graceful body.
Seated side-saddle, the female ancestor places her hand fondly on her male partner who confidently holds the reins. Representing the founding ancestors, the couple possess powers that enable them to fly on naga-horses. The erect penises of horse and male rider portend fertility.

Before I head out to the cabin for some SOB hunting, I thought I'd share a letter to the President, sent me by a true American.
This thread can be a posting place for others that might want to share a letter they intend to send to him as well. Will look forward to reading them when I return.
Dear President Obama,
Thank you for helping my neighbors with their mortgage payments. You know the ones down the street, who in the good times refinanced their house several times and bought SUV's, ATV's, RV's, a pool, a big screen TV, two Wave Runners and a Harley. But I was wondering, since I am paying my mortgage and theirs, could you arrange for me to borrow the Harley now and then?
Richard Ford
Queen Creek , AZ
P.S. They also need help with their credit cards, when do
you want me to start making those payments?
P.P.S. I almost forgot - they didn't file their income tax return
this year. Should I go ahead and file for them or will you be
appointing them to cabinet posts?

Over the years I have worked my way up from Preschool to Kindergarten to 1st, 2nd and 3rd Grade. I've been in third grade for 9 years and simply adore teaching this age. My experiences have included inner-city and neighborhood schools in the suburbs. I've loved both for different reasons. In addition to teaching, blogging, and creating resources I also enjoy consulting with teachers on classroom organization, management and classroom decor. I have presented for SDE on those topics. I also conduct workshops and professional developments on Guided Math. I have been part of TPT since soon after my twins were born. I initially found myself giving the site a try because I was so worried about how we were going to make ends meet with the addition of TWO babies. I was not sure what to expect at the time, but never imagined the joy and opportunities it would afford me. I will forever view the day I signed up as being one of the best things I have ever done. Teachers Pay Teachers has been an absolute gift to me. It has provided me with a creative outlet, allowed me to be a part of students' education around the globe and let me connect with so many amazing people. It keeps my passion for all things education going, pushes me to stay on top of trends and best practices and greatly rewards me for my time and hard work in so many ways.
I strive to create an organized classroom environment in which the students are able to be independent learners. It thrills me beyond words when a sub leaves me a note that reads, "The room runs itself." That's my goal. :)

WAR: How many more die before the USA people understand we are at war? One not of our own choosing. 3,000 was not enough? Is a mushroom the only thing to get them off their bottoms and fight?
Band Good turnout at games. But at the first home Varsity game, the construction crew cut the main power feed at 1pm. School was closed. Power came on at 5:30. Tulsa Station KOTV was here for a special. We cooked 100 hot dogs at the visitor stand (seperate power) for them to give away. Talk about a stress filled day!
Now they broke the sewer and water lines. That just leaves the gas line to go. They also keep blocking access to the dumb waiter. Progess hurts. On the other hand, I WANT the new buildings. Auditorium, Science classrooms, Band room, choir room, etc. A 1925 building is not nice for the kids.
Kiwanis New portico on mini-golf course is "done". A roofer will do the shingles on Friday. We close for the season on Sunday. Just in time for the new president to take over. Still have to put in a new fence. Both of my employees quit early to take full time jobs. I wish them luck.
Computers: my printer (Epson) does not want to talk, just blink its little red light at me, so had to steal my old one back from my son (lexmark) just to get my reports done. XP is not helping. neither is Compaq.

Front elevation of Covent Garden Market, Covent Garden. Architect: Charles Fowler. 1828-31. London. Photograph copyright 2005 George P. Landow. [Click on the photograph to enlarge it.]
[You may use these images without prior permission for any scholarly or educational purpose as long as you (1) credit the photographer and (2) link your document to this URL in a web document or cite the Victorian Web in a print one.]
Many and many a pleasant stroll they had in Covent Garden Market; snuffing up the perfume of the fruits and flowers, wondering at the magnificence of the pineapples and melons; catching glimpses down side avenues, of rows and rows of old women, seated on inverted baskets, shelling peas; looking unutterable things at the fat bundles of asparagus with which the dainty shops were fortified as with a breastwork; and, at the herbalist's doors, gratefully inhaling scents as of veal-stuffing yet uncooked, dreamily mixed up with capsicums, brown-paper, seeds, even with hints of lusty snails and fine young curly leeches. Many and many a pleasant stroll they had among the poultry markets, where ducks and fowls, with necks unnaturally long, lay stretched out in pairs, ready for cooking; where there were speckled eggs in mossy baskets, white country sausages beyond impeachment by surviving cat or dog, or horse or donkey; new cheeses to any wild extent, live birds in coops and cages, looking much too big to be natural, in consequence of those receptacles being much too little; rabbits, alive and dead, innumerable. Many a pleasant stroll they had among the cool, refreshing, silvery fish-stalls, with a kind of moonlight effect about their stock-in-trade, excepting always for the ruddy lobsters. Many a pleasant stroll among the waggon-loads of fragrant hay, beneath which dogs and tired waggoners lay fast asleep, oblivious of the pieman and the public-house. — Charles Dickens, Martin Chuzzlewitt, ch. 40 (Ruth and Tom Pinch walk about London)

What To Do in Detroit While at The Auto Show 2012
The 2012 North American International Auto Show (NAIAS) officially opens to the public tomorrow, January 14th and runs through January 22nd. If you're heading down to the show, make a day of it and enjoy what Detroit has to offer. Here are a few activities to check out in the city.
Explore over one-hundred galleries at the Detroit Institute of Arts (DIA), the country's fifth-largest fine arts museum. Several exhibitions are currently taking place, including Detroit Revealed: Photographs 2000-2010, where contemporary artists present photographs and video inspired by the city of Detroit and its people.
Visit the skating rink at Campus Martius Park, "Detroit's town square," for some winter fun! The skating rink is open every day of the week for people of all ages. On Friday, Saturday and Sunday evenings, enjoy the open fire, where you can purchase S'more kits at the Arctic Zone for your roasting pleasure.
Stop by Pewabic Pottery, a national historic landmark where the unique art form was developed in 1903. The pottery houses a museum, gallery of contemporary pottery, learning center and gift shop.
Score tickets to Green Day's American Idiot, now playing at the Detroit Opera House. This award-winning musical tells the story of three lifelong friends, forced to choose between their dreams and the safety of suburbia.
See why visitors from near and far rave about the barbecue at Slows Bar BQ in Detroit's Corktown neighborhood. Beyond barbecue ribs, pulled pork, several sandwiches and a variety of comfort food side dishes, Slows also serves a selection of Michigan wine and beers.
Nothing says "Detroit" like a Coney dog! Try one at the legendary American Coney Island, then head next door to Lafayette Coney Island to see how they compare.
Try your luck at one of Detroit's casinos including MotorCity Casino and Hotel, Greektown Casino-Hotel and MGM Grand Detroit. Beyond luxurious hotel accommodations, each features celebrity chef restaurants, spas, nightlife and 24-hour gaming.

Sweeter than Sugar
License: CC BY-NC 3.0
Do you drink diet soft drinks like this one? Did you ever wonder how diet drinks are sweetened? They don't contain sugar, so what makes them taste sweet?
The Back Story
- Sugars are simple carbohydrate molecules. The smallest sugar molecules are absorbed directly into the bloodstream. They include glucose and fructose. Table sugar, which you might add to ice tea or spoon onto your cereal, is called sucrose. Each sucrose molecule consists of one glucose molecule and one fructose molecule bonded together.
- Making and selling artificial sweeteners like those used in diet drinks is a multi-billion dollar industry. People with diabetes, who can't safely consume sugary foods, are one market for the industry. An even bigger market for artificial sweeteners consists of people who want to lose weight by consuming fewer calories.
- Why are artificial sweeteners low in calories? They are much sweeter than real sugar so you can use far less of them. Some artificial sweeteners have no calories at all because the digestive system doesn't break them down. They just pass right through the body.
- You might think that many researchers would actively look for new and better artificial sweeteners, given how profitable they are. Surprisingly, several of the most popular artificial sweeteners were discovered by accident. Accidental discoveries are actually fairly common in science. Watch this video to learn how three well-known artificial sweeteners were discovered by chemists who broke lab safety rules: http://www.nbclearn.com/chemistrynow/cuecard/52731
Show What You Know
Learn more about artificial sweeteners at the link below. Then answer the questions that follow.
- Which three artificial sweeteners were discovered by accident? What lab safety rules were violated in their discovery?
- When and how was saccharin discovered? How much sweeter is it than sugar?
- When and how was cyclamate discovered? Why is cyclamate no longer used in the U.S.?
- When and how was aspartame discovered? How widely is it used today
- What are pros of artificial sweeteners compared with real sugar?
- Artificial sweeteners can be hundreds or even thousands of times sweeter than real sugar. How can artificial sweeteners be so much sweeter than real sugar?

apt-get install open-font-design-toolkit.
Just a few highlights from the Google webfonts session at the Google IO 2011. Go ahead and watch the whole video for the full context:
If you happen to be in the beautiful city of Berlin for LinuxTag in a few days, don't miss "OpenSource-Fonts – Bedeutung und Nutzen von freien Schrifttypen in Theorie und Praxis" by the authors of LinuxLibertine. (If you don't understand deu aka German: it's "Open fonts – meaning and usage of libre fonts in theory and practise").
Linux Libertine and Linux Biolinum are truly amazing open font projects with plenty of smart font features (including TeX integration). No doubt this represents a huge amount of work. Well-worth checking out and contributing to.
At the request of Sumana Harihareswara, editor of GNOME journal, (and with her help) I've written "Fonts in GNOME 3: Cantarell, Tweaking, and Trailblazing" for the special GNOME3 edition. It's an overview of the significant changes happening in GNOME3 building on the past few years of efforts along with some tips on tweaking fonts and a look at the upcoming challenges and opportunities.

Looks like webOS - the new promising OS for phones, tablets and more - has released a new SDK but the licensing of the fonts included remain unclear: the SDK EULA and the font metadata don't really indicate if HP has chosen to release the fonts commissioned for this platform under a libre font software license or not.
From what I can see in the Virtualbox image used in the 2.1 SDK, the core fonts from Ascender have their usual agreement "You may not use this font software on more than five personal computers unless you have obtained a license from Ascender to do so. Except as specifically permitted by the license, you may not copy this font software." but the external license it may refer to is missing. And more importantly, the very nice Prelude font family specifically commissioned for the platform from David Berlow from the Font Bureau has copyright and trademark statements but no license. No details on the dedicated open source subdomain either.
Webos maintainers have indicated what languages the Prelude font currently supports. They should consider clarifying the EULA they want to attach to these fonts. Allowing the fonts to be modified - and explicitely stating so - will help with language coverage and increase the value of the webos platform in a very competitive space...
