LASH Audio Session Handler: Past, Present, and Future
The LASH Audio Session Handler is a framework for saving and recalling the combined state of a collection of running audio programs. It is a central part of the Linux audio desktop, and its success or failure may well shape the way Linux audio software is received by a larger demography of users. During the past year, LASH has become ore tightly integrated with modern desktop environments and continues to evolve in this direction.

Shake, rattle and roll – An attempt to create a "spatially correct" Ambisonic mixdown of a multi-miked organ concert
In Summer 2008, the world's first wave field synthesis live transmission
(of Olivier Messiaen's "Livre du Saint Sacrement") took place between
Cologne Cathedral and the WFS auditorium at Technische
Universität Berlin. The music was captured by 20 microphones with a mixture of
spot miking and Hamasaki square technique, i.e. without a dedicated
"Hauptmikrofon", as this was found desirable for the intended reconstruction
on a WFS system.
This paper describes an attempt to reconstruct the "original" spatial distribution of the three widely separated organ works from the concert recordings using Ambisonic encoding. The actual azimuths and elevations of the spot mikes were measured relative to a carefully chosen "virtual" listening position and recreated with ambisonic panning. The toolkit used for post-production (and the live transmission setup as well) consists exclusively of free software, centered around Ardour and Jack on a Linux system.

Crafting Sound In Space
This presentation/paper will briefly discuss Ambisonics, analyze requirements for working with Ambisonics for composition, and will discuss different strategies of working with blue and Csound to compose using Ambisonics for spatialisation of sound.

3D audio with CLAM and Blender's Game Engine
Blender can be used as a 3D scene modeler, editor, animator, renderer and
game engine. In this paper, we describe how it can be linked to a 3D sound
platform working within the CLAM framework, and make
special emphasis on a specific application:
the recently launched "Yo Frankie!" open content game for the Blender Game Engine. The game was hacked to interact with CLAM implementing spatial scene descriptors transmited over the Open Sound Control protocol, allowing to experiment with many different spacialization and acoustic simulation algorithms.

Ambisuite/Ambman: A utility for transforming Ambisonic files
The creation of a utility for converting and transforming ambisonic files is
described. The challenges of making such a utility as independent as possible of
the user's platform and of adding a GUI to what
was initially a command line tool are detailed. Though the original version was
released over a year ago, a greatly revised version of
Ambisuite (ver. 0.6.0 ) is due to be released to coincide with LAC2009.

Application of Linux Audio in Hearing Aid Research
Development of algorithms for digital hearing aid processing includes many steps from the first algorithmic idea and implementation up to field tests with hearing impaired patients. Each of these steps has its own requirements towards the development environment. However, a common platform throughout the whole development process is desirable. This paper gives an overview of the application of Linux Audio in the hearing aid algorithm development process. The performance of portable hardware in terms of delay, battery runtime and processing power is investigated.

A new Audicity feature: room objective acoustical parameters calculation module
Audacity is a popular and powerful platform for audio editing.
It has many useful features, a flexible plug-in subsystem, and is multiplatform too. The latter characteristic greatly facilitates the development of portable acoustic applications that will work regardless of the system employed by the final user. This conducted us to start the porting of Angelo Farina's Aurora plug-in family for Adobe Audition to Audacity, beginning with the Acoustical Parameters module. In this article we describe this development work and the results obtained.

The Imperative for High-Performance Audio Computing
It is common knowledge that desktop computing power is now increasing mainly by the change to multi-core chips. This is a challenge for the software community in general, but is a particular problem for audio processing. Our needs are increasingly towards real-time and low latency. We propose a number of possible paths that need investigation, including multi-core and special accelerators, which may offer useful new musical tools. We define this as High-Performance Audio Computing, or HiPAC, in analogy to current HPC activity, and indicate some on-going work.

Automatic Parallelization of Faust Code
Starting from version 0.9.9.5, Faust provides auto parallelization features based on openMP, a standard API for shared memory parallel applications. The scope of the paper is to describe the generation of parallel code and to give a detailed report of the performances that can be achieved with such parallel code.

jMax Phoenix: le jMax nouveau est arrivé [The new jMax has come]
The reports of the jMax death have been greatly exaggerated. Free software never dies, it just sleeps for some time. Almost nine years after the release of the project under a free license, and six years after the end of the developments by the institution that created it, some of the original project developers decided to revive it from its ashes: jMax Phoenix was born.

Bowsense – A minimalistic Approach to Wireless Motion Sensing
A novel wireless motion sensing device is presented, that can be used for controlling of realtime electronics. The device consists of a small (20×40 mm) circuit board including all circuitry and battery, and contains a complete inertial measuring unit (IMU), measuring both acceleration and angular velocity in 3 dimensions. Data is transmitted wirelessly via a bluetooth link and can be read from applications either using bluetooth serial emulation, or using a small standalone server application that converts incoming data and sends reformatted data out via OSC.

The Guido Engine: A toolbox for music scores rendering
The Guido Music Notation format (GMN) is a general
purpose formal language for representing score level music in a platform
independent plain text and human readable way.
Based on this music representation format, the Guido Lib provides a generic, portable library and API for the graphical rendering of musical scores. This paper gives an introduction to the music notation format and to the Guido graphic score rendering engine. An example of application, the GSC, is next presented.

The Quest for Noiseless Computers
When The Knoll, the building that houses CCRMA, was completely renovated in 2004, new custom workstations were designed and built with the goal of being both fast machines and completely noiseless to match the architectural and acoustical design of the building.

Netjack – Remote music collaboration with electronic sequencers on the Internet
The JACK audio server with its ability to process
audio streams of numerous applications with realtime priority, has major
signi=0Ccance in context with audio processing on Linux driven personal
computers. Although the Soundjack and the Jacktrip project already use JACK in terms of remote handmade music collaboration, there
is currently no technology available, which supports the interconnection of
electronic music sequencers.
This paper introduces the Netjack tool, which achieves sample accurate timeline synchronization by applying the delayed feedback approach (DFA) and in turn represents first solution towards this goal.

Transmission – Linux Audio goes mobile
Transmission is a custom GNU/Linux distribution designed for real=C2=ADtime audio production on mobile computing platforms, including Intel 'Ultra Mobile devices. It was developed on behalf of Trinity Audio Group by 64 Studio Ltd. and was released to the public in the summer of 2008.

Reflection in Pure data
One of the more prominent realtime computer music languages on linux is Pure Data. While Pure data provides ample constructs for signal domain specific programming, it has only limited capabilities for metaprogramming. In this paper we present "iemguts", a collection of objects that add (amongst other things) reflection capabilities to Pure Data.

Signal Processing in the Pure Programming Language
This paper introduces the author's new functional programming language Pure and discusses its use as a scripting language in signal processing applications. Pure has a IT compiler based on the LLVM compiler framework which makes execution reasonably fast and interfacing to C very easy. A built-in GSL matrix type makes it possible to handle numeric signals in an efficient way, and a Pure plugin for Miller Puckette's Pd provides the necessary infrastructure for realtime signal processing. The paper gives a brief overview of the language and the Pd interface, and presents some examples.
Victor Lazzarini
A Distortion Synthesis Tutorial
In this article, we will be surveying the area of distortion synthesis, using the Csound language to provide tutorial examples of the different techniques. The text will discuss various methods from the classic algorithms to newer approaches. The article will concentrate on less well-known techniques as well as more recent developments, which have been less often explored in the literature. The main aims of the article are to provide a general overview of the area with some tutorial implementations of various correlate techniques.
Jürgen Reuter
Considering Transient Effect in Spectrum Analyis
Signal processing with discrete Fourier transform (DFT) works well in standard settings, but is unsatisfying for rapid changes in signal spectra. We illustrate and analyze this phenomenon, develop a novel transform and prove its close relation to the Laplace transform. We deploy our transform for deriving a replacement for the sliding window DFT. Our approach features transient effect and hence shows more natural response to rapid spectral changes.
Hans Fugal
Optimizing the Constant-Q Transform in Octave
Abstract The constant-Q transform calculates the log-frequency spectrum and is therefore better suited to many computer music tasks than the DFT, which computes the linear-frequency spectrum. The direct calculation of the constant-Q transform is computationally inefficient, and so the efficient constant-Q transform algorithm is often used. The constant-Q transform and the efficient constant-Q transform algorithm are implemented and benchmarked in Octave. The efficient algorithm is not faster than the direct algorithm for a low minimum frequency. Additional vectorization of the algorithm is slower under most circumstances, and using sparse matrices gives marginal speedup.

The Current State of Linux Video Production Software and its Developer Community
According to Linux and Open Source/Free Software thought leaders, the current situation in Linux video editing and production software still leaves a lot to be desired. Here I give an accurate overview of the software that is already being developed for Linux video editing, or that is currently being worked on. I will introduce the developers or/and the development communities that are behind these projects, and how collaboration between projects works. I will mention interesting events and places where Linux video developers meet, and what groups might be interested in our work, or ought to be involved into specific aspects of our work. I will outline where projects are still lacking to support specific use cases, and why they matter. Furthermore, I will discuss open problems, as well as opportunities for participation and collaboration, and I will make some predictions about the future, based on the work that was already done, and that is currently being tackled.

The Otherside: Web-based Collaborative Sound Synthesis System
The Otherside is an advanced open-source multimedia system, designed to run as a server application. It is essentially a sound synthesis system that allows for the creative collaboration of a number of people or machines over computer networks. Unlike most similar attempts to create network-based audio applications, the Otherside does not require any specialized audio software or massive amounts of computer processing power. The audio processing is done on the server side and directed to listeners using a simple Internet Radio protocol. Any listener can then choose to participate in the sound creation process by using a simple web-browser-based chatroom, or by utilising their own advanced systems for network control.

GROMA – Programming a permanent multichannel sound installation
In this paper I shall be addressing some of the more complex issues of developing the software for the permanent urban sound installation GROMA, which incorporates environmental sounds from two partner cities of Cologne, Rotterdam and Li=C3=A8ge. This installation has been inaugurated in 2008 at the location of Europe's largest underground parking lot. The programming environment Supercollider was used for realising the algorithmic rules of the score and a flexible routing scheme for multichannel sound distribution.

Emergency Phones
On Campus Emergency Telephones
Approximately 297 Emergency Telephones blanket the WSU campus. 176 of these Blue Light emergency phones are located at outdoor locations across campus. 121 emergency phones are indoor emergency phones with one located inside every elevator of every campus building. All of these phones are easy to operate and may be used as either a direct line to the WSUPD Dispatch Center or to make free calls to on-campus telephone numbers. To operate these phones in an emergency, simply push the red "emergency" button of the front of the phone panel. There is no need to dial a phone number as the emergency phone will make a direct connection to the WSUPD Dispatch Center automatically and the call will be received as an incoming emergency services request.
Cellular Phones
Many students, staff and faculty carry their own personal cell phone. This can be a valuable asset in reporting any type of emergency or routine service request anywhere on campus or in the surrounding area. We urge all members of the campus community to pre-program the WSUPD Emergency number (313-577-2222) into their own cellular phone.
We also recommend that you make it a habit to always carry your cell phone on your person at all times. Your cell phone can be invaluable in quickly obtaining emergency services. However, your cell phone is useless if you leave it in your car, in a back pack or book bag that you do not have with you, or left in a coat pocket left hanging back in your office or over a chair in your classroom.
Also, if your personal cell phone number begins with an area code other than "313", you must enter the "313" area code as a prefix to "577-2222" in your cell phone directory or speed dial. Otherwise you may receive an automated response telling you to reenter the correct area code prefix before your (emergency) call can be completed.

Idiots who are hacking/cheating upon video games. I don't care what you do with your SP, that's a whole other story, but really.. Why do kiddo's have to hack on multiplayer? I'll never, EVER understand how that can be ANYTHING close to being fun...

Was first thread i clicked on that it worked with, wasn't going to bother finding others. I clicked "PREVIEW" and noticed it worked.
It already does work, just pointing out that the iframe embed code works in one part of the forum and not another, which si weird and does somewhat grind my gears.

I'm quite lucky as most the time they give my post to the neighbours and I pick it up off them when I get home from work, although one time I bought a guitar which cost me about £500 and they just left it outside leaning against the door, anyone could of took that and I would of been $#@!ed.

It is "could have" and "would have" actually.
The abbreviated version is could've which one could say sounds like could of.

It doesn't just grind my gears. It snaps all the teeth off and melts the goddamn metal.
I had my wallet stolen from me at the campus yesterday. I didn't even realize it was gone until this morning before I left for class. I remember setting it aside for a moment before class started (I sometimes remove items from my pocket and into my backpack so my pants aren't as tight when sitting). I know the guy to my left must have taken it when I wasn't looking. I'm really pissed off right now and want to confront him tomorrow, but I know that's not the smartest decision.
I can't imagine ever taking something from someone. I don't even have much to be taken (it was all the money I had). It really sucks.

Public toilets in Auckland are generally pretty clean. The only time i've seen bad facilities is way outside the CBD.....and damn, dey be gross out that far O_O
I hate drivers! I like to think im a somewhat compliant driver. I know the roads in NZ were designed by a 4 year old, so i try to be as courteous as possible. It's not possible all the time, but i try.
So it grinds my gears when you get those bastards who jump a queue of traffic by using a flowing lane, only to stop and want to be let in 100m down the road, thus blocking the once flowing lane.
Those people are scum as far as im concerned. You piss the guy off who you're expecting to let you in, you piss the people off who would otherwise have a decent free flowing commute, and you piss everyone off in the line you just jumped because now they are going to be held up further waiting for your impatient ass to get back in the queue. And what's more, they make this decision consciously. They make the decision to be an asshole and so should be treated as one!
I saw the police pull one guy over for this.....the satisfaction! OH the satisfaction i felt in that moment!
I hate bad drivers.

Morning Briefing: Four things to know about Sunday
Digital Reporter
Sunday, August 17, 2014, 8:44 AM - The weekend's half over, so if there's sunshine where you are, soak it up.
Here's your coast-to-coast look at Canada's Sunday weather.
Atlantic Canada
It won't necessarily be a deluge, but a big, slow-moving upper low will bring a continual threat of showers and thunderstorms over the next 48 hours, if not longer.
For now, most of the rain seems set to fall in southeast New Brunswick, northern Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
It felt chillier than it actually was in southern Ontario, with gusty winds joining forces with below-seasonal temperatures and cloudy skies to make for a gloomy Saturday.
Those clouds brought rain to parts of the region, falling heaviest on Georgian Bay and the Lake Huron shores.
The skies are clearer today, and although it's still a little below seasonal, it's only by a couple of degrees, and Weather Network meteorologist Monica Vaswani says that could last all the way through to Wednesday.
There's not much in the way of precipitation in store for the south over the next couple of days, and in the northwest, high pressure will keep the region dry until the evening, when showers and the occasional non-severe thunderstorm are expected to begin, lasting on and off into Monday.
For the week to come, those showers will be followed by a minor cooldown, with Thunder Bay being a couple of degrees cooler than average.
As with Atlantic Canada, a low pressure system is set to bring showers and storms across parts of the region over the next 48 hours.
However, it's a relatively faster-moving system, and slightly more potent, capable of bringing severe storms through much of southern Saskatchewan Sunday, with the biggest threat being heavy downpours and localized flooding.
On Monday, it's the Alberta foothills that will be more at risk of non-severe weather, although the south is likely to be drier than the north.
TUNE IN: Watch the Weather Network on TV for updates on these storms. If it's safe to do so, upload your pictures and videos here.
British Columbia
Although Vancouver will continue dry, there's a risk of non-severe storms in the southern Interior Sunday.
Overnight, drivers on the coasts and valleys should be mindful of rising fog.

We had to catch a train to Florence that morning as well. We packed and had our continental breakfast. They served cake, pastries, toast, cheese and charcuterie, cereal, juice, tea, coffee and fresh fruit. I always had the fresh peaches. So good. I also had the succo which I believe was a blood orange but I'm not quite sure.
Unfortunately, Marco, the gent at the concierge wasn't there that Monday morning and we didn't get to say goodbye. We paid our hotel taxes which was 8 Euros per night and we were on our way with our almost 50-pound luggage. Thankfully we were a block from the train station.
I checked with the Italo club and they gave us the correct train number. We are also thankful for Roo's tip that people wait near the boards to see which train arrives at which platform. As soon as we saw ours, we had to race over there. It was at the other end of the terminal. We showed them our tickets and they let us in through security. We didn't have to go thru screenings or metal detectors. We were assigned to particular car and had seat numbers.
On the platform, people will blindly step in front of you as if you weren't waiting in line to board. Fine, whatever. People will also be smoking on the platform. I can't stand the smell. Thank goodness no smoking is allowed on the train.
We boarded finally and I was in no rush to get to my seat. There was no point. People had to find their seats, store their luggage and get comfy. My bag was too thick to be placed above us. Courtney and I tried to do it together. Her's was fine. She wins the luggage weight and now size challenge. I had to roll my bag to the opposite side of the car and just leave it next to the stroller. I was oversized.
I took my seat next to Courtney and we had already started moving. The motion made me nervous so I took a Dramamine. Before it kicked it and it made me fall asleep, a couple with a baby where in the next row and across from me. For some reason, the parents thought it was a brilliant idea to give the child a toy and have it repeatedly bang it on the metal tray. The father was in view and he was on his phone with a baby blanket in front of him. Why don't you put the blanket on top of the metal tray, Sir? I really wanted to ask instead I just kind of said 'What the fuck?' a few times because I could hear it through my headphones. Eventually I passed out but was awoken to show the agent our tickets with our passport. I thought it was a quick ride and that we would be off boarding soon. Nope, I had 40 more minutes to sleep. Thankfully the child was what I presume was asleep as well.
We headed into Florence and it looked familiar to me, in the way it looked to get to Pisa. I saw the top of a duomo but didn't know which one it was. We arrived, unloaded ourselves with our enormous luggage and headed out of the station. I was dopey from the Dramamine and didn't feel like talking. We got in line for a taxi and it was our first female driver. No flirting went on as the men did in Rome. It was pretty much a silent ride to our hotel which wasn't too far away.
We checked into our hotel and jumped in their narrow elevator to the second floor. We had an actual key attached to a metal hexagon shaped piece with a heavy weight wrapped around its end. Lugging our luggage, I was ecstatic about the extra weight.
I can't remember if we took a nap before we went out to explore but regardless, a nap was necessary every single day of this trip so far. We just wandered around, took wrong turns, used the wrong crosswalks, think we were on certain streets but wasn't. We eventually got the hang of it. Honestly, I was kinda crabby and tired from that pill so I probably wasn't the best company. I wasn't really talking and nothing excited me. I was just tired.
We randomly came across the Galleria dell'Accademia where the David was. Museums were closed on Mondays so we couldn't see him that day. We kept walking, saw leather shops, gelaterias, ristorantes and eventually saw the building Cathedral of Santa Maria del Fiore and continued to move that direction. As more people were in our way, we knew we were approaching a busy piazza. We went into the cathedral and it was huge, beautiful and free. There was a way to light candles for your loved ones but in order to that you would have to blow out one and replace it with another. There just wasn't any candles left. I remember doing this at other churches while I was in Europe and prayed for those I love.
Still tired, I moved on with little enthusiasm until I was under the dome. The ceiling of the rotunda was painted and the inner circle made it look like the people were hanging off ledges. Like the Sistine Chapel, how did the do that? It must have been so dangerous and took years. It was beautiful.
You could climb to the top of the duomo and get a panoramic look at the city but 463 steps and paying to do so was not of interest for me. I was still sore from the Spanish Steps and my abs were sore from that workout.
We went out to the piazza and had pizza and a Coke outside. I read the a-frame board wrong and thought I was getting a deal on pizza and a soda. We selected the pepperoni pizza and the funghi pizza. They weighed each slice and then temporarily placed it in the oven. It came out to $16. The Coke alone was 3 Euros each. I guess it was decent. I thought I was getting it for 6 euros each. Oh well. The pizza was tasty. Of course I preferred the mushroom one and the Coke in Italy is less sweeter than the ones provided in America. The pepperoni was definitely spicy and a bit on the chewy side. I couldn't finish my pieces and I had to dab the pizza with a napkin to collect some of the excess oil. I could feel the potential heartburn coming on.
We continued to walk on and saw Prada, Gucci, Armani and more. Shopping? I'm doing that while in Milan. We passed a piazza with a carousel, many vendors with leather goods, jewelry and souvenirs and then we came across a little covered square with all the leather products you can ask for. Find belts, wallets, purses, backpacks, jackets and scarfs, pancho and more. Court bought herself a scarf. I will probably buy myself a leather jacket in Milan.
We continued on and found ourselves at the base of Ponte Vecchio. Cugino and I randomly found ourselves at the Rialto Bridge when we first arrived in Venice. We turned to our right and saw a bright elevated walkway. And that's how we found and realized we were on the Rialto Bridge. We were already on it. I didn't want to step on it until I saw it from afar. We walked a block west and was able to take some photos of the bridge. The water underneath it was brown and muddy.
Continuing on, one of my former bartenders and Sommelier, Thom, provided me some points of interest, including Santo Spirito. We eventually found it and it wasn't really happening. We walked in and walked out. Perhaps during the evening this would be like Rome's Piazza Nevona. With no real destination, we headed East and came across more ristorantes, gelaterias and museums. A banner flew about works of fashion and I was so unenthused. Poor Courtney. I was grumpy pants.
Passing another outdoor seating area, I pointed out the empty martini glasses that were sitting in front of a couple to Court. I presume the were once filled with an affogato. We found a little square with four restaurant options and picked one to sit at and have one. Our server was pretty and reminded me of Maria, a server I worked with while at Buon Appetito in Hayward. She had an accent, spoke English well and her makeup was perfect and eyelash extensions were on. No other server we have come across looked like her.
We sat next to an older couple. They were grumpy too. The wife was getting agitated that he couldn't read the servers writing for the wifi password. After letting her try to decipher the code herself, I passed her my menu that had the password in print on the first page. No point of getting angry over not being able to access the rest of the world. Trust me, I know! Wifi in our hotel rooms haven't been the greatest.
We had our affogatos and they were tasty. It takes me back to the cruise Cugino and I were on and I had one every day. I seriously gained weight so fast on that trip. Well, when it's all you can eat and drink! The gym was there but I was on vacation. These were good and it seemed like Court and I were in competition over who can finish it first. We were quiet and I could hear the spoons clinking on the glass and we both tilting the cup to make sure we got every drop.
I was beyond tired. I proposed going back to the room to nap. Court was game. We headed in the direction of the hotel but crossed over Ponte Vecchio. I was surprised to see that every single shop there was a jewelry shop. During my trip in 2012, I made it a point to get a piece of jewelry from every city that we visited. I was very much into selling Stella & Dot at that time. Now that I think of it, I can't remember which piece of jewelry did I get from Pisa.
We made it to the hotel and we crashed. I woke up and was hungry. Surprise, surprise. I asked Court if she was hungry but she laid back down. I offered to bring her something back. I used my good ol' Yelp app to try to find what was open. I found one close by and headed that direction. When I arrived at where it should have been, the restaurant was not where I expected it to be. So I went in the other direction and headed to Perseus. I went inside and asked for a table for one. The restaurant went father than expected and there was meat everywhere! The decor had paintings on the wall, pots and pans hanging from the ceiling and the lighting was dim. I was sat at a table and I felt my Italian was escaping me that I felt like I failed when the waiter finally asked, "English?" Yeah. Damnit.
I looked over the menu and thought about what I could get that I can split with Court. I went with the pennette with carne which was steak, lamb with balsamic and grilled vegetables. I didn't eat all the pasta and was getting a little full. I pushed it away and asked if they had to go boxes. He said no and I didn't think he understood me so I pulled out my phone and used the Google translate app. I showed him what I meant and he said no again. I was puzzled. No to go boxes? What if I don't finish all this meat? Well, the pasta was taken away and the lamb was good but filling. On my grilled veggies platter I had red bell pepper, some thing that could have been endive, eggplant and a potato. The potato was wrapped in foil. A-ha! I could wrap up Court's meat in foil. The potato was good, the eggplant a bit tough and the bell pepper sweet. Also on my table was a huge bowl of raw veggies - celery, radishes, what looked like kale and carrots. I snacked on a few carrots in between my bites of lamb. I placed the piece of foil on my plate and started cutting up pieces to put in the foil. I then wrapped it up and placed it far to the side of me to where they would have to reach pretty far to get it off the table. I felt like I was hiding chewed up meat in a napkin so my mom wouldn't see and I could eventually going to throw it away in the trash without her even knowing. I paid and left holding my piece of foil. Is taking food home with you frowned upon? I have no idea.
The walk back was quiet and short. Court was still asleep so I left her dinner on the desk. I played on my phone, texted and ended up working until 1:30 AM. I had a hard time falling asleep. Something was on my mind and I hated it. I think I fell asleep at about 3:30 AM. I then get called via WhatsApp from work and them needing some financial docs that I could most likely find and send to them quicker than them trying to find it themselves. I got my laptop back out and sent them what they needed. Then I went back to sleep. This time until at least 9 AM.

Sun spots on the skin, or solar lentigines, are caused by exposure to the sun. They appear as little brown or dark brown spots. They mostly affect people with really fair skin, but even people with darker skin types can be affected by it. We've listed natural ingredients to get rid of sun spots that can help you before the situation goes out of hand.
Once sun spots appear on the skin, they would only get worse after more exposure to the sun. Sun exposure leads to increased production of melanin in the skin. Repeated exposure to the sun can make even more sun spots to start appearing.
These spots start appearing as you age. They are most prominent around the 30s and 40s, but some people can get them as early as the 20s. Some home remedies to get rid of sun spots can help with the situation.
Some factors like genetics and pregnancy can play a huge role. Pregnant women are more prone to sun spots. Even stress can play a huge role. The best way to avoid sun spots all together is to use a very good sunscreen before stepping out.
So, here are some home remedies to try out if you have sun spots, have a look.
1. Lemon:
Lemon juice is the strongest bleaching agent there is. Rub lemon juice directly on the spots and keep it on for 10-15 minutes. You may feel a mild tingling sensation, but that's absolutely normal.
2. Castor Oil:
Castor oil is known for how well it can heal. You can use this for any type of dark spot, be it acne, sun spots or age spots.
3. Apple Cider Vinegar:
ACV can help dry out and fade sun spots. Mix diluted vinegar in honey and apply over the spots. This is one of the best natural ways to reduce sun spots.
4. Buttermilk:
The lactic acid in buttermilk helps naturally lighten dark spots. This is an extremely gentle home remedy for sun spots.
5. Vitamin E:
Vitamin E oil is amazing to get rid of dark spots. Just apply it directly on the spots for best results.
6. Aloe Vera:
Aloe vera gel is used for a lot of skin problems. It gets rid of pigmentation and dark spots if used regularly.
7. Garlic:
Rub garlic on the areas for a few seconds. The anti-inflammatory properties of garlic will help fade away the dark spots.
8. Tomato:
Tomato is a very good home remedy for sun spots for people who have sensitive skin, as it is a good natural bleach but also is very gentle.
9. Potato:
Potatoes have minerals that make it one of the best home remedies to reduce the appearance of dark spots.
10. Turmeric:
The lightening properties of turmeric are very well known. You can either make a turmeric face pack for the entire face or use it just as a spot treatment. Mix it with buttermilk for best results.
11. Cinnamon:
Cinnamon is anti-inflammatory and helps fade away spots. Mix cinnamon with honey and apply it on your spots using a cotton swab.

5 Questions for Video Testimonials That'll Capture the Best Responses
Asking the right questions for video testimonials can play a crucial part in garnering the responses you're looking for viewers to hear. While there's no such thing as a bad question, sometimes there is a better way to phrase it.
The ideal questions are ones that'll require more than a yes or no response. Video testimonials give clients a chance to talk up your brand – so let them! It doesn't look so great when you try to do the bragging, so utilize the opportunity to have other consumers hear how great you are, by asking the kind of questions that will allow clients to explain, in detail, why they love you and what you do.
The opening question
Q: What was the need or problem that you had before you started using our product or service?
What makes this question great? For one, it goes right to the core of where your value lies. It addresses the problems that bring consumers to you each day, looking for a solution and finding the insight that keeps them coming back. Without a problem or need, you wouldn't be doing what you do.
It also allows for consumers to recognize themselves, or their problem, and take an even greater interest in what you do. It'll become easier for them to imagine introducing your product into their life.
Digging into the details
Q: What product feature(s) did you like best?
Q: What are two other benefits of this product?
Q: Would you recommend this product? If so, why?
These questions provide more insight into your product and what it can do. Consumers want to know as much as possible about what they're potentially investing in, and that includes any bonus features that might sweeten the deal. If you have testimonials that can easily answer these questions for them, you're making their research and decision-making process that much easier!
Highlighting customer service
Q: What was the process like working with our company?
We all know the importance of quality customer service. We talk, write, and shout it from the rooftops enough that it should be the standard across the board. But the truth is that good, consistent customer service can be pretty rare to come by. Consumers are tickled when brands go out of their way, or go the extra mile to improve their experience because it's so rare for them to feel like they're the priority.
So, if your brand is consistently nailing customer service – make sure it comes up in a few testimonials! Draw attention to what you do well and let consumers know their experience is your top priority.
Q: Is there anything else you would like to add?
Give them a chance to add anything they feel is relevant. It might surprise you, in a good way, when they bring up something you hadn't considered. That's what testimonials are all about, after all. Allowing consumers to view your product and brand from a unique angle, one that doesn't include a carefully crafted sales pitch.
It also shows your clients that you genuinely want to hear whatever it is they have to say, and that's always a positive for both of you.

Pro Tennis Spotlight: Venus and Serena Williams
Most Americans remember when Venus and Serena Williams took the Olympic spotlight at the summer 2012 games. But where are they now? Unless you follow tennis news closely, you may not have heard their names since, but that is about to change. The Williams sisters' father, Richard Williams, has a book scheduled for release on May 6, and there has been recent news about the documentary "Serena and Venus" regarding a legal dispute.
In the Media
The book by the tennis stars' father unveils the circumstances that bred the success of Serena and Venus. He came from humble beginnings and worked for every penny he had. His father abandoned him at a young age, and thus he promised to never do that to his family. His dedication to his daughters is highly admirable and has helped them get where they are today. This would be a great read for the parents of young tennis players, because it exhibits a recipe that has created champions. The love and support of parents is of utmost importance to the success of young athletes.
Because of their father, his dedication, and their passion for the sport, Venus and Serena have become tennis legends. Despite a legal dispute regarding some footage from the U.S. Open, the movie chronicling the lives of these incredible women continues to be enjoyed by tennis fans. Keep your eyes open for this documentary; it is incredibly inspiring for tennis players of all ages. Fortunately, fans will continue to be able to watch the documentary in its complete form, as the dispute has been settled, and both parties have come to an agreement.
Champions Through and Through
Serena and Venus, ages 32 and 33 respectively, continue to dominate the women's tennis world. They have both had the honor of being ranked by the Women's Tennis Association as the world's Number 1 player. Each holds four Olympic gold medals, one each in singles and three in doubles. The two play in singles against each other and are considered to be rivals. Serena, the younger sister, is currently ranked ahead of Venus. The two sisters have always managed to keep their professional rivalry separate from their personal lives and remain close.
Although they may not currently be in the tennis spotlight, these two incredible athletes are ones that tennis players everywhere can look up to. They are a great example of how people can work together and be competitive at the same time. Keeping your head in the game and focusing on the goal at hand is of critical importance. Look out for the book "Black and White: The Way I See It" to learn more about the tennis stars' father and how he concocted the recipe for their success. If you get the chance, check out "Serena and Venus" as well. These stars will surely continue to be icons of the tennis world.

All of trestles is a cobblestone reef break... You could call it a beach break, but to me its a classic california rock reef. The cobblestones make it what it is and the river-mouth that lets the sand collect on them. The cobblestones are not sharp at all, but I will be damned if I dont slip and almost break an ankle on those damn things everything i walk back in from a session there.

Until November(2)By: Aurora Rose Reynolds
One look at my face and no one will care what my hair looks like. I find a clean bra and panties and sweats. I throw on a hoodie and put my hair up in a messy knot at the top of my head then slide my sunglasses up to rest on my head till we get downstairs. Walking out of the bathroom, Beast is sitting on the bed, looking like he has been waiting for me forever. Typical male.
"Come on, boy. Let's roll." I pat my leg and he jumps down from the bed to walk over to me. Sitting at my feet, he waits for me to attach his leash. "Okay, sweet boy, I'll feed you outside," I say while double-checking the bathroom to make sure I didn't leave anything. Walking to the elevator, with beast in tow, I slow down so he can smell everything that he missed last night.
The elevator opens up and the person stepping out almost stumbles at the sight of Beast. I mean, he is big but he is not that scary looking. His fur is dark gray with black spots, his nose is pink with black spots and his eyes are almost blue. He's actually really beautiful. I give the guy a look and apologize. "Maybe my face is what scared him," I say to Beast when the elevator door closes. He tilts his head in agreement. Once on the first floor with the elevator door open, there's enough light to put on my sunglasses so I slide them down my face.
Walking to the checkout, I notice there is a new desk clerk. I'm praying we don't have to have another uncomfortable conversation. That's when I spot a key card drop box and make my way to it without a second look at the front desk.
Once I drop my key inside, the smell of coffee hits me. My feet move without my command to the source of my weakness. I love coffee. I drink so much coffee every day that my coffee consumption alone could support a small country. Coffee in hand and a bagel hanging out of my mouth, we make our way out to my car. Outside, the cold air hits my lungs and it feels amazing. I walk to my other baby, my light blue convertible VW bug. I pop the trunk and drop my bag inside then dig out Beast's food and water bowl and set them down on the ground. Leaning against my car, I watch Beast scarf down his food while I enjoy mine. Once he's done, I put his bowls back in the car and take him to the grassy area near the parking lot to take care of his business. I lay down in the cold grass, looking up into the sky and all I can think is in a just few hours, my life is going to be so different.
Driving is not fun. Okay, let's be clear, driving in "my" car with a giant beast of a dog, going from New York to Tennessee is not fun. My car is small and with all my stuff packed in the trunk and the back seat, there is no room for Beast. I feel bad for him being stuck up here with no place to lie down. But I have to say, he is pretty inventive. At one point, his butt was on the seat while the upper part of his body was lying on the floor board. It didn't look comfortable to me, but apparently he didn't mind because within a few minutes of finding that position, he was snoring. Who knew dogs could snore so loud?
We've been stopping every couple hours to use the rest room and stretch our legs. We still haven't made it out of Virginia. To be honest, I'm just glad the roads are clear. You never know what kind of weather you're going to run into during this time of year. October is one of those tricky months. Some days are beautiful and sunny with fall in the air and other days are freezing and all you want to do is go hibernate for the winter.
I hate the cold. Maybe after I get settled with my dad, I'll take a trip to a beach somewhere. The only good thing about winter is being able to wear cute sweaters and boots. But I do miss my dresses during the winter. I wear a dress every day during the summer. I've taken sewing classes just so I could make my own summer dresses. There's nothing like getting up in the morning, taking a shower and slipping on a dress and a cute pair of sandals. There's no work involved. You can add a cute jacket or extra jewelry but you don't have to. A dress is simple. During the winter, not only do you have to wear pants and boots but you have to make sure that your shoes go with your top and jacket. Yep, I hate the cold.
My phone blasting Breathe by Anna Nalick startles me out of my daydream about summer and dresses. Looking at the screen, I see it's Dad calling.
"Hi, Daddy."
"Hi, baby girl. Just checking to see how far you got."
Looking at my GPS, I say, "We're still in Virginia and have about six hours left. I've been stopping a lot for Beast."
"Oh, yeah. Forgot you're bringing that thing you call a dog with you." He chuckles under his breath. "I hope you know the only reason I'm letting you bring him into my house is because he saved your life."

Couple die after 'chemical incident' at luxury Edinburgh hotel
TWO bodies were discovered at a five-star Edinburgh hotel after what police described as an 'unexplained' death and 'chemical incident' this afternoon.
A man and a woman were found dead at the luxury Scotsman Hotel in the Scottish capital at 12.15pm and detectives have not ruled out suicide.
The sixth floor of the hotel was evacuated and a cordon was placed outside the hotel entrance near the historic Royal Mile area of Scotland.
A Police Scotland spokesman said: "Inquiries are at an early stage and the deaths are being treated as unexplained at this time."
The busy holiday season has begun as thousands flock to Edinburgh for the popular Fringe Festival which officially starts tomorrow.
The police weren't giving anything away. They just said that the hotel had been closed and everyone evacuated
Police, fire and ambulance crews were at the scene while roads remained open to the traffic.
Norma and Derek Cameron, from Kelso in the Scottish Borders, were staying at the hotel while they attend the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo.
In the aftermath of the bodies being discovered they were prevented from returning to their room on the eighth floor.
Mrs Cameron, 71, said: "We wanted to get in and get refreshed.
"The police weren't giving anything away. They just said that the hotel had been closed and everyone evacuated.
"It's horrible to think about. I'm not sure I want to go back in now."
While Lynn Massie, 34, and Neil Cooper, 31, from Aberdeen, have been staying at the hotel on a two-day city break.
Ms Massie said: "We're really shocked. I feel very sorry for the families of the two people. I don't know what happened but it's quite sad.
"You don't expect something like this to happen at a five-star hotel. It's a shame for the hotel staff too."

Where Do You Stand: Using the Word "Rape" Casually
Where Do You Stand: Using the Word "Rape" Casually
I was talking to a friend the other day about how her home is being renovated. It's costing her a ton of money, and instead of just saying, "the contractor is taking advantage of us," she said, "the contractor is raping us." I was really shocked to hear such a strong term used in such a casual way. I took offense that she was comparing a horrible thing such as rape to something as unimportant as how much it's going to cost to put in new hardwood floors.
Am I overreacting here or do you think it's OK to use the word "rape" in a casual way?

You Be the Judge: Jwana Karim at Dubai Film Festival
Last week, we have posted a photo of Iraqi actress and singer Jwana Karim at Dubai Film Festival on all of our Social Media channels. The Arabian beauty has been spotted wearing a daring gown by young Lebanese designer Tarek Sinno. Jwana's outfit was controversially confusing to the extent that we could not actually make our minds and give a final style verdict.
Thus, we have asked our readers and fans to speak up and tell us what they really think of the gown and Jwana's look in general, and we have got the following comments:
"It looks like the inside of her body, like her guts and organs!" –Zinab Chahine (Lebanon)
"What's up with the cape? Disturbing!" — Lamia Ghoneim (Egypt)
"Rather revealing for Iraq. Loving the velvet, though." – Lianne (Canada)
"Love the dress from the west down. But I think the upper part, until the crease under her breasts, is very unflattering." – Raghda Salama (Egypt)
Those were some of the comments we've received. Thanks to all the pretty ladies who have joined the discussion. If you want to share with us your opinions, drop by our Facebook page. It'd be great to hear from you!

On the heels of my Kanger Subox Mini (US/UK) review, I figured I would share how I wick. I know there is a degree of variance (more on this later), but this post will just be a quick overview of my preference.
This guide assumes that you already know how to make a coil, so if you don't, do some Google-ing or keep an eye out on this blog for a future post covering the basics. In the Kanger Subox Mini review, I used .32 gauge kanthal, though I usually use x gauge, for a nice 1.5 ohm. Bear in mind that I am a mouth to lung vaper, so coil up as per your own tastes. I would suggest dry firing the coil to make sure heat is distributed evenly with no spots prior to wicking, as it's easy to gauge a coil's performance without it being loaded with juice.
As a side note; I believe there is no right or wrong way to vape with regards to resistance and type of coil. Flavour is subjective, and as long as you derive enjoyment (and keep away from the stinkies), it's all good.
My coil is pretty basic. I know there are more complex styles with split center 3_3 designs amongst others, which I may cover in a later article, but this is really more for beginners who want to know a box standard build for their Subtank.
For this kind of a coil, you will simply need a coil and some cotton (roughly the amount you see in the photo below).
To start, I thread the wick as anyone normally would. I like to tuck the wick down into the deck. This is purely personal preference, as I know people do thread the wick through the top sometimes. Treading this way works best for me. I like to fluff out the cotton using tweezers and make sure the fit inside the coil is reasonably tight.
Next, I trim to the approximate length. I strongly suggest using sharp scissors, as you don't really want the wick distribution to be offset by tugging from dull scissors. I recommend cutting at an angle towards the deck. It makes the excess cotton on the base easier to deal with whilst keeping enough to provide good contact with the side holes.
At this point, I tuck the wick inward into the deck (making sure to not block airflow). A gentle touch and frequent adjustment is the key. The wick needs to keep the coil saturated with juice whist being dense enough to control the flow of juice into the the deck.
Realistically, DIY coils are super cheap. A lot of people I know have given RDAs a shot and then promptly given up due to beginner blues. But screwing up a number of times is a very inexpensive risk to take, and remember, no one gets the perfect coil the first time around. I'd honestly recommend you trying to push through. Don't get disappointed to the point where you quit – keep chasing your perfect vape. You will get there.
Once I have my deck looking as pretty as I want, I then snip the excess wire kanthal off.
When you tuck the RBA lid back on, make sure the screw is lined up with the slot and that you don't have wick impeding the o-rings seal.
At this point, I then grab my tweezers and tug the wick a teensy bit from the side holes to help. I have seen more extreme protrusions, but I vape repetitively for 5 minutes. I guess this is a throwback to my smoking days. In any case, I have never had a dry hit using this setup, so I am reasonably confident this will work for you as well should you choose to try it out.
Before mounting on the mod, I check that it all looks "proper" and balanced. As far as I am concerned, this is one sexy coil, so I proceed to priming the wick with e-juice and testing it out.
I prime with a quite a few drops directly on the coil and through the side holes. I am careful not to flood the deck, but make sure the wick is saturated enough to test without turning the cotton crispy.
I then personally check resistance on the device. Ohm testers have been known to malfunction, so this is more me being paranoid. I aimed for 1.5 and this is exactly what I got.
Firing the coil should provide a decent vapour production. If it's not looking good, this is the time to adjust the coil. After filling the tank, the job becomes messier, so I strongly advise getting testing out of the way prior to commitment.
Once all is said and done, I fill the tank and enjoy my tar-free vice. As you can see in the photo below, my wick does not protrude aggressively (if at all) . I have personally never had any issues, but I know some people feel they need to really have a lot of the wick into the tank for it to work optimally. My experiences differ, but your mileage may vary. Feel free to leave a comment sharing your experiences below, though.
And that's it folks! All in all, the Kanger Subox Mini (US/UK) RBA is a trivial deck to build on. I can get it ready to rock and roll in less than 5 minutes now at a consistent resistance and performance. There is something to be said for single coil builds! To this day, the only issues I have had are the o-rings around the bottom of the RBA.
If pinched, you may find the device leaking from the air holes. It's annoying, but easily fixed. I do wish Kanger would supply spare o-rings, though.
In a future article I will show more exotic builds for this deck. I know it's relatively small, but it's surprisingly versatile with regards to coil variance.

Manchester City boost! Nicolas Otamendi 'hopeful' of being fit for Manchester derby
Manchester City defender Nicolas Otamendi is upbeat about his chances of playing in Sunday's Manchester derby, despite suffering a knock in the Champions League.
The Argentina centre-back was forced off with a dead leg in the first half of City's 0-0 draw with Dynamo Kiev, a result [winning 3-1 on aggregate] which saw the Blues progress to the quarter-finals for the first time in their history.
Otamendi's early exit added to an already difficult start to the game for City, who had lost captain Vincent Kompany in the opening minutes.
But while Kompany is expected to be out for at least a month, Otamendi could be back in action by the weekend to face Manchester United at the Etihad Stadium.
The 28-year-old said: "It's very similar to a dead leg injury I have had before. I will have a test tomorrow.
"The blow wasn't that serious but it was better not to continue and come off.
"The test, I hope it shows nothing and am hopeful I can be there on Sunday.
"That is a derby and I will have to be 100 per cent and try to win the Premier League game. It's a derby, we want to win."

Marlins end up with solitary focus on position players
The Miami Marlins went heavy on position players in the second day of the MLB Draft on Friday.
Miami picked eight position players, including shortstop Ben Deluzio of Orlando First Academy in the third round and Cal State Fullerton junior catcher Chad Wallach, the son of longtime major-league third baseman Tim Wallach, in the fifth round.
Article continues below ...
Marlins vice president of scouting Stan Meek said the team did not make a concerted effort going into Friday to draft strictly position players.
"That's really how the board fell," Meek said. "We needed position players, but we didn't really say we were going to target position players. I didn't even realize it until it went down to the end, but we took a lot of athletes. It just kind of fit with how the board fell."
Deluzio hit .400 with 20 RBI and 32 runs scored this past season. He is a Florida State signee, but Deluzio told the Orlando Sentinel on Friday night that he was going pro.
"I'm looking forward to staying on the infield and making a difference for the Marlins," Deluzio told the Sentinel.
That news should make the Marlins happy. Meek said that Deluzio may not stay at shortstop for the long haul, but they like his abilities and think he will stay in the infield.
"He's a very athletic high school kid," Meek said. "He's lean. Has a lot of room for strength. He's really an athlete that can swing the bat and can really run."
After the Marlins took right fielder K.J. Woods of Fort Mill (S.C.) High, they grabbed the first of two Fullerton players in Wallach. The Marlins also selected first baseman Carlos Lopez in the 10th round.
Chad Wallach has hit .303 with two home runs, 13 doubles and 33 RBI for Fullerton this season. His father, Tim, played from 1980-1996, mostly with the Montreal Expos and Los Angeles Dodgers.
The Marlins had projected Wallach as a third-rounder, and they happily grabbed him in the fifth.
"He's a big, durable catcher," Meek said. "Obviously, the bloodlines are great. Anytime you find the son of big leaguers, the percentage of those guys that play in the big leagues is pretty high."
On Thursday night, the Marlins grabbed North Carolina third baseman Colin Moran with the sixth overall pick. Later Thursday night, Miami picked up three pitchers: left-hander Matt Krook of St Ignatius (Calif.) College Prep, right-hander Trevor Williams of Arizona State and right-hander Colby Suggs of Arkansas.
Meek felt that Krook was one of the top left-handers in the entire draft, and he fell to the Marlins at pick No. 35 (between the first and second rounds).
"The ball comes out of his hand right," Meek said. "It's a plus breaking ball right now."
Williams was 6-6 this season with a 4.12 ERA, but the junior had 81 strikeouts and 26 walks in 111.1 innings.
"He was up to 96 even in the fifth inning," Meek said. "He throws a lot of strikes. Been a good competitor for them. He's kind of been their main guy."
Meek said Suggs was drafted with the understanding that he would be a reliever. Suggs, a junior, set Arkansas' single-season record for saves (13) and he also had a 1.74 ERA this season.
"I saw him at the SEC tournament," Meek said. "He was up to 96, 97. And an 84 mile-per-hour curveball. Really aggressive. Kind of in the (St. Louis Cardinals closer) Jason Motte mold. He's 6 foot but really strong and durable and aggressive."

Today was my 3rd time to render duck fat. The first two times I did it I ended up with this golden liquid that looked like melted butter. No prob. However this last try I left the heat a little too high and the fat looks a little dark. The cracklings I made from it taste burned. I presume I probably burned the fat but it doesn't look that dark, just a little brown.
Is this fat still any good or do I have to throw it out? I was trying to collect enough fat to make confit but I don't want my duck to have a burned taste. I understand if it's unusable for confit but can I use it for something else like roasted potatoes? Is there a way to test the fat to see if it's still good?
I'll also just add that I don't like the new look of the site. I'm not against change, I just think the old one was organized better.
