In the interest of talking about another team other than the gophers...
The allstar classic made me think of something. Mike Tamillow started for the Wildcats as a freshman at 184, his season ended much like Franklin Gomez's did at the Big Tens, not making it to the big dance. He had a more than respectable season all things considering.
The following year, he was back at 184 because Matt Delguyd was a senior and I believe a 4 year starter at 197. I feel like Tamillow was cutting a lot of weight to stay at 184 for the good of the team and would probably benefitted heavily from a redshirt year if for no other reason than to not have to make that weight. (he wrestled well at 211 in Freestyle, winning the university championships I'm pretty sure)
My question is, looking at the success Mike had at 197 last year, does anyone think that Delguyd's presence held Tamillow back from becomeing at least a 3 time all american? Or should the Senior been allowed to keep his weight class. Keep in mind, I don't know what their competition in the room was like and I'm aware of the rediculous cutting Herbert was doing during that time period as well.
Any takers?

6 Colombians charged in killing of US drug agent
The indictment alleges that DEA agent Terry Watson was killed at the hands of an organized group of robbers who operated taxi cabs in Bogota
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Six Colombian nationals were indicted by a federal grand jury Thursday for the kidnapping and murder of a U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration agent. A seventh Colombian was charged with trying to destroy evidence in the case.
The indictment alleges that DEA agent Terry Watson was killed at the hands of an organized group of robbers who operated taxi cabs in Bogota in order to lure victims whom they perceived as wealthy.
The defendants, who are all under arrest in Colombia, targeted Watson for what the defendants called a "millionaire's ride," says the indictment.
Watson was working for the U.S. Mission in Colombia when he entered a taxi cab on June 20 operated by one of the defendants and was allegedly attacked by two other defendants — one who used a stun gun on Watson and another who stabbed him with a knife.
Watson was able to escape, but he soon collapsed and was brought to a hospital, where he died from multiple stab wounds.
The defendants are Gerardo Figueroa Sepulveda, 38; Omar Fabian Valdes Gualtero, 27; Edgar Javier Bello Murillo, 26; Hector Leonardo Lopez, 23; Julio Estiven Gracia Ramierez, 30; and Andrés Alvaro Oviedo-Garcia, 21. Each was charged with two counts of second-degree murder, one count of kidnapping and one count of conspiracy to kidnap. Oviedo-Garcia was also charged with two counts of assault. In addition, the grand jury indicted Wilson Daniel Peralta-Bocachica, 30, for allegedly trying to destroy evidence associated with the murder.
A Justice Department official declined comment on the question of extraditing the seven to the U.S.

I have a fairly complex and large application that hands loads and loads of data. Is there a speedy way to add items to ComboBox that doesn't take so long? On my P3 3.2ghz, the following snippet takes just under a second to add around 32,000 items. (MasterCIList is a StringList with strings typically 20 - 30 bytes long).
with LookupComboBox do
for i := 0 to MasterCIList.Count - 1 do
Drilling down into the VCL, it appears that in TComboBoxStrings.Add, there is a call to Result := SendMessage(ComboBox.Handle, CB_ADDSTRING, 0, Longint(PChar(S)));
I'm guessing this is really taking up time (okay, I know it is). Is there another way to populate the Items that is speedier? Any high speed combox boxes available? I have the TMS components but they seem to be extensions of TComboBox.
For instance, I have the PlusMemo which seems to be a total rewrite of a TMemo. I can easily add a million line in a second to a PlusMemo. A TMemo, I don't think so.
Thanks so much for your time!

Apple also behind Slate Computing, filings suggestRecords indicate that Apple may be behind Slate Computing, LLC - the company currently in possession of the iSlate trademark.
Slate Computing, owner of the "iSlate" trademark may be a shell company set up by Apple to quietly obtain U.S. trademark protection for the name. According to legal filings, Slate Computing obtained the trademark for "iSlate" in November of 2006, and the signatory was Apple's Trademark Specialist, Regina Porter. The only real piece of information on Slate Computing that can be found online is in the description of the business found in the filing. These findings were obtained by TechCrunch and MacRumors.
According to TechCrunch, Slate Computing had also filed trademark for the term in the European Union through the same law firm that Apple has worked with in the past to trademark other product names such as the iPhone. Apple used a corporation based in Trinidad &Tobago, where Apple has registered European Union trademarks in the past, to register for the trademark.
As reported by fscklog, Slate Computing is also the owner of the "Magic Slate" trademark, which follows the same naming conventions as the latest release of Apple's "Magic Mouse."
Apple's ownership of the iSlate.com domain was originally brought to light by Mark Gurman of AppleRejectedMe.
Rumors of a potential tablet device from Apple have been swirling for many years and recent reports have all hinted at an early 2010 launch. The tablet has reportedly been the number one focus of CEO Steve Jobs since returning to his company this summer.

There's no such thing as a pretty good aligator wrestler.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.This sentence has been called "one of the best-known sentences in the English language"[2] and "the most potent and consequential words in American history".[3] The passage has often been used to promote the rights of marginalized groups, and came to represent for many people a moral standard for which the United States should strive. This view was greatly influenced by Abraham Lincoln, who considered the Declaration to be the foundation of his political philosophy,[4] and promoted the idea that the Declaration is a statement of principles through which the United States Constitution should be interpreted.
My fault Black-n-Red, it was indeed, the Declaration of Independence.
Sorry, not trying to be ticky-tacky, Quinn.
At the same time, doesn't this lend more credence to gays being allowed to marry?...that they ought to have the same rights to liberty and the pursuit of happiness?...even if that means marrying someone of the same sex?
Your ignorance is painful to witness.....
Here's what I don't get:
Whether you legalize or don't legalize gay marriage, is homosexuality going to lessen?
I think the obvious answer is "NO". Therefore, there has to be a reason other than moral indignation that makes some people so opposed to it.
I don't know the ins-and-outs of health insurance and legal benefits for spouses and all that jazz but I get the sneaky suspicion that some groups are against gay marriage because they stand to pay more out in benefits of some kind and it stands to drive their profit margins down.
That suspicion makes me side with gay marriage.
Your ignorance is painful to witness.....
It may be ruled unconstitutional under some other area of the Constitution, but it would not fall under the Equal Protection Clause.So help me understand, if a state passed a law saying that people under 5'2'' can't be teachers it would be ruled unconstitutional, correct? Assuming this is true why would it be unconstitutional? Short people are not a protected class under the constitution and being a teacher is not a right guaranteed by the constitution.
Jacob Schlottke---Gone too soon, and the world is a little less bright because of it. RIP, brother.
One, two, Evans is coming for you...
For all of you in favor of gay marriage, I would say go help those gay men & women create a constitutional amendment THEN there can be NO argument.
Remember ERA?
I am sure Zapp & a few of you older members do. The womens movement in the 1970s tried to the same thing for women. Ultimately it failed but a lot of things changed along the way. Until Gay marriage is apart of a State's or Federal constitution then any created law will be challenged in court by those who disagree whether by moral or legal grounds.
For the sake of discussion & argument here are two opposing history's of the ERA. I don't post this this change the subject but give an analogy to what the homosexual community should be looking at.

A Surprising Dividend Play That May Make You Rich
Theacquisition of wealth is paramount to our financial
. Most Americans have historically depended on home ownership for
accumulation of wealth, the recent crisis notwithstanding. But most
people don't realize that there's a better way.
One of the greatest ways to compound wealth is to buy dividend-paying stocks and reinvest the dividends. Each quarter (some stocks even pay monthly), your dividends buy moreshares , adding to the total on which your nextdividend payment is calculated. But investing in dividend-paying stocks that consistently raise dividends puts the compounding effect on steroids.
Consider this:
Johnson & Johnson ( JNJ ) has increased its dividends for the past 48 straight years, at an average rate of about 13.4% per year since 2000. If you purchased 200shares of JNJ in 1980 (an investment of $14,600) and never added new money but just reinvested all the dividends, the position would be worth $1.15 million today. That's a 7,868% return. In other words, it's like buying a house in 1980 for $146,000 that today is worth about $11.5 million. Home values didn't appreciate anywhere near that much. That's the power of growing dividends.
Similarly, a 200-share investment in Pepsi ( PEP ) -- which has also grown itsdividend consistently -- in 1990 would have cost $21,420. With reinvested dividends, the position would have grown to $759,000 today. Again, imagine buying a $214,000 house in 1990 that is worth about $7.6 million today.
Going forward, dividends are most likely to grow in markets that are most likely to grow. Where do future markets look most promising? The same place economies are growing at light speed -- emerging markets .
Dividends and emerging markets seem like two terms that don't go together. Emerging markets have been known for capital appreciation and have typically not paid dividends. But things are changing. As these markets mature, more and more companies are beginning to pay dividends, returning more cash to shareholders than ever before. In fact, about 634 equities in the MSCI Emerging MarketsIndex paid dividends as of the end of September, according to data compiled by Bloomberg and JPMorgan Chase.
Investors have been noticing. The WisdomTree Emerging Markets Equity Income Fund ( DEM ) is an exchange-traded fund (ETF) that invests in 292 emerging-market dividend-paying companies (as of December 31) and currently yields about 3.3%. Although DEM was formed in 2007, it has since outperformed 99% of all emerging-market ETFs, returning more than 30%.
In addition to strong growth, emerging-market dividends offer something else -- diversification from the U.S. dollar. As the dollar continues to decline, the relative value of many emerging-market currencies appreciates, increasing the value of dividends in dollar terms.
Here are a couple of promising dividend payers...
CPFL Energia SA ( CPL ) is a Brazilian utility holding company and one of the largest companies in South America, with a 13% share of Brazil's power distribution market. The utility serves 6.4 million customers concentrated in the affluent states of Sao Paulo and Rio Grande do Sul.
A boomingeconomy and population growth have led to consistently rising power usage. Asearnings for CPFL have increased, so has the dividend, which has grown by an average of more than 27% in the past five years and by 37% in 2010. The stock currently yields a solid 6.4%, with the next dividend payment expected in May. The stock has returned a stellar average of more than 18% per year in the past five years, compared with an average of less than 3% for the S&P 500.
There is no withholding tax on the dividends. Payments are made in Brazilian reals and converted to U.S. dollars. Brazil's stronger relative economic growth bodes well for the future strength of the real versus the dollar, which could help sweeten the dividend when it is translated into dollars.
Philippine Long Distance Telephone Co. (
is the largest telecom provider in the Philippines, serving more
than 60% of the nation's fixed lines and about 55% of the cellular
market. The Philippines is one hot market. Theeconomy grew at a
whopping 7.3% in 2010 and the Philippine stock market was the
best-performing market in the world for the year, posting a 77%
The market has pulled back about 12% from its highs, and Philippine Long Distance has also pulled back 18% from its yearly high. Although the market has recently consolidated, the future appears bright for the Philippine market. The government has forecast 8%GDP growth for 2011.
The stock pays two dividends a year, which totaled $4.80 per American depository share (ADS) in 2010, equating to ayield of about 9%. This company also has a strong history of raising dividends, which have risen more than 600% since 2005. Consensus analyst estimates are calling for earnings growth of 9% in 2011.
Action to Take --> Reinvesting growing dividends over time has proven to be an amazing wealth builder. Emerging markets will likely provide strong economic growth in the years ahead. Both of these stocks are excellent candidates to provide consistent and growing dividends in the years ahead.
-- Tom Hutchinson
P.S. -- I don't know if you've seen this or not, but a Texas man has figured out how to collect thousands of dollars a month in dividend payments alone. Last year he made $41,161 this way. Whether you're on a fixed income or not, I'm sure you could benefit by copying this man's formula for your own use. Here's everything you need to know…

I am trying to implement linear convolution using Core Audio, I have the algorithm implemented and working, but I am trying to write the output of this into a .wav audio file. Here is the code for the algorithm...
//Create array containing output of convolution (size of array1 + array2 - 1)
float *COutput;
COutput = (float *)malloc(((size1+size2)-1)* sizeof(float));
int sizeOutput = ((size1 + size2)-1);
//Convolution Algorithm!!!
for (i=0; i<sizeOutput; i++) {
for (j=0; j<sizeCArray1; j++) {
if (((i-j)+1) > 0) {
COutput[i] += CArray1[i - j] * CArray2[j];
I need to write the float values within COutput (a standard array of floats) into an audio file. Am I right in assuming I need to send these float values to an AudioBuffer within an AudioBufferList initially? Or is there a simple way of doing this?
Many thanks for any help or guidance!

The Indigenous Women's International Forum and reflections on Beijing Plus Five As women all over the world met in New York in June to assess developments five years after the Fourth World Conference on Women in Beijing, indigenous women from 17 countries held the first session of the Indigenous Women's International Forum. In addition to providing an opportunity to highlight and voice their specific concerns, the meeting was aimed at familiarising women with the 'Beijing Plus Five' process and other UN processes in which indigenous women are involved. By Victoria Tauli-Corpuz ________________________________________________________________________ DOES anybody know that New York was called the Eastern Woodlands by the Native Americans? The Eastern Woodlands were the hunting grounds of many Indigenous Peoples and Nations in what is now known as the United States of America. Lorraine Canoe, an indigenous elder from the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, mentioned this in her opening prayer and welcome at the first session of the Indigenous Women's International Forum. This Forum brought together 60 indigenous women from 17 countries all over the world to assess developments five years after Beijing. It was an occasion for the few who have been closely following the Beijing process and other UN processes to share their knowledge and experiences. The participants belong to various regional and national indigenous women's network which were born before and after the Beijing Conference. Coordination and fund-raising was mainly done by Lea Nicholas Mackenzie of the Assembly of First Nations of Canada, with the guidance of the International Steering Committee of Indigenous Women for this event. Building and strengthening indigenous women's networks The African Indigenous Women's Organisation (AIWO) had representatives from the Batwa in Rwanda, the Maasai in Kenya, and the Tuareg from Burkino Faso. The Asian Indigenous Women's Network (AIWN) had Kankana-ey-Igorots from the Philipines, Lahu from Thailand, Kui and Naga from India, and Dayak from Indonesia. The Arctic Indigenous Women's Network had a Sami from Norway. The indigenous women from Central and South America have a network called Enlace Continental de Mujeres Indigenas. There are representatives from the Quechua, Miskito, Maya, Nahuat and Arawak, from Peru, Ecuador, Nicaragua, Guatemala, Mexico, Costa Rica and Guyana. Representatives of the various Indigenous Nations from Canada and the United States were also present. Since they were the hosts, they were represented in bigger numbers. There were two women chiefs from the Khowutzun and Nipissing First Nations in Canada. Others represented the Cree, Maliseet, and Eualayai Nations. Those from Canada came under the umbrella of the Assembly of First Nations (AFN). From Australia, the Aboriginal women and women from Torres Strait Island came under the umbrella of the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island Commission (ATSIC). While some participants had taken part in the Beijing Conference in 1995, the majority are more involved in their local or national indigenous women's organisations. Thus, the main objective of the Forum was to introduce to the participants the Beijing Plus Five process and to link this up with the other UN processes which indigenous peoples are engaged with. At the same time it was an event to allow indigenous women to strengthen their networking with each other and to highlight their main concerns. Review of developments five years after Beijing High on the list of the concerns of indigenous women is globalisation and increasing poverty among indigenous women. Trade liberalisation has brought about the dumping of cheap, highly subsidised, imported agricultural products from the rich countries. These compete with the traditional crops which have been developed and nurtured by indigenous women. Indigenous sustainable livelihoods and small-scale farms and businesses are eroded or destroyed. In Peru, from where potatoes originated, indigenous potato growers are allowing their potatoes to rot in the farms or just use them to throw at President Fujimori during rallies. The dumping of cheaper potatos and sliced ready-to-fry potatoes from the United States and Canada and rice from Asia is putting local potatoes at a great disadvantage. The Igorots in the Cordillera region in the Philippines are not traditional potato growers. However, when the Americans colonised the Philippines at the turn of the 20th century. they introduced potato growing and facilitated the shift from subsistence production to cash-cropping. For more than 30 years, potato farms provided livelihoods to tens of thousands of indigenous farmers. With the entry of the same processed potatoes, around 50,000 farmers lost their livelihoods. In Mexico it is the same story with maize or corn. Maize is the traditional food crop of indigenous peoples in Mexico. Import liberalisition led by the North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA) and strengthened by the World Trade Organisation (WTO) led to the dumping of cheap maize from the United States in Mexico. With its entry to NAFTA in 1994, Mexico committed itself to stopping its subsidies to maize production and import restrictions on crops that are also domestically grown. Within one year its domestic production of maize and other grains dropped to 50%. Millions of traditional livelihoods were lost because of this. This led to an increase in the rate of indigenous peoples from Mexico crossing the border to enter the United States at risk of life and limb. It was reported that two indigenous women from Chiapas got killed at the border a few days before the Forum was held. Thus, the promise that trade liberalisation will bring forth economic growth and lessen poverty has not been realised in many indigenous peoples' communities. Poverty and exclusion has worsened and there is more concentration of wealth and power in the hands 2 of fewer countries, corporations and billionaires. The debt burden of developing countries, which has put them under the structural adjustment programmes of the World Bank and the international Monetary Fund (IMF) has worsened poverty. The provision of basic social services is given to the hands of the private sector, making these services more inaccessible to the indigenous women. Privatisation of the most basic utilities and services, such as the privatisation of water in Bolivia, energy in the Philippines, etc., is leading to massive protests from the indigenous peoples and also the peasants and workers. To add insult to injury, the international trading system under the leadership of the WTO is pressuring countries to implement the Agreement on Trade-Related Aspects of Intellectual Property Rights (TRIPS). This is the international legal regime which legitimises the piracy of indigenous peoples' knowledge on agriculture, health and biodiversity conservation. Furthermore this legitimises the patenting of life, which, for indigenous peoples, is the worst form of commodification and desacralisation of life. The collection and patenting of the human genetic material of indigenous peoples, traditional medicinal and sacred plants (ayahuasca, kava, bittergourd), and traditional food crops (quinoa) are just a few examples of biocolonialism and biopiracy. Violence against indigenous women and the increase in the number of indigenous women and girls from India, Thailand, Nepal and the Philippines becoming victims of sex- trafficking syndicates are problems which were also raised. The liberalization of investments even in the service sector has resulted in the entry of foreign tourist and travel agencies. These agencies are aggressively promoting tourism and exotic indigenous women and cultures are used to attract tourists. Liberalised investments also mean more mining and oil-drilling companies coming into indigenous territories. The conflicts over the control and use of primary resources found in indigenous lands and waters are worsening day by day. Indigenous peoples are now becoming refugees or squatters in their own lands or are forced to cross the artificial borders created when nation-states came into being. Armed and non-armed conflicts have increased, whether in Africa, Asia, or Central and South America. Indigenous peoples find themselves caught in conflicts and wars not of their own making. There is an increasing number of indigenous peoples who have become refugees at the borders. The resistance of indigenous peoples against the expropriation of their lands and resources, against the privatisation of water in Bolivia for instance, or the dollarisation of the economy in Ecuador, is interpreted by governments to be acts of hostility and threats to national security. The common response is increased militarization, which is leading to the worst violations of the human rights of indigenous women. More legal cases are being filed by Indigenous Nations and peoples in Canada, the United States and Australia against the corporations and even government agencies. These cases concern incidents that range from dumping of toxic or nuclear wastes in indigenous peoples' territories to the pollution of waters and lands by mining and oil 3 corporations, the deforestation of the last remaining forests and hunting grounds, and the destruction wrought by the building of big dams and highways. The indigenous women from the affluent countries of Canada, the United States and Australia have reported increasing poverty and health problems among them. The increasing poverty among the Native Canadians jars with Canada's number one ranking in the Human Development Index of the United Nations Development Programme's Human Development Report. They have the highest infant mortality rates and maternal mortality rates. The incidence of HIV/ AIDS infection is higher among them compared to the dominant population. As with the Aboriginal Peoples in Australia, there are more Native Canadians in jail compared to other groups. These are all symptoms of the structural problems of racism and discrimination, and non-recognition of the rights of indigenous peoples to self-determination and to control over their lands and resources. These are also the results of the further concentration of wealth and power in the hands of fewer countries, corporations and billionaires. Global governance is increasingly falling into the hands of unaccountable and non-transparent institutions like the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the World Trade Organisation and the Group of Eight. Is there hope in the UN? Why then have indigenous women come here to New York to participate in this Beijing Plus Five Review? Do we see any hope in the UN and its various processes? Are our cries for economic justice and restorative justice going to be heeded by the United Nations? In the Forum there were discussions on the development of international law within the UN and how this have addressed the rights and concerns of indigenous peoples. It was recognized that since indigenous peoples 'issues were not paid attention to at the national level, the indigenous peoples had no recourse but to go to the UN to raise their demands. The creation of the UN Working Group on Indigenous Populations was the result of the lobbying done by the representatives of the various indigenous movements in many countries. The sustained lobbying and advocacy of indigenous peoples to urge the UN to address not only the individual human rights but also the collective rights of peoples like the indigenous peoples paid off. The UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, which was adopted in 1993 by the Working Group and the Sub-Commission, reflects the needed balance between individual and collective rights. This Declaration is still being considered by the Commission on Human Rights. Indigenous peoples are hoping that by the end of the International Decade of the World's Indigenous Peoples (1994-2003), this will be adopted as it is. Just last 27 April 2000, the Commission on Human Rights adopted a Resolution which called for the establishment of a Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues which will be a subsidiary body of the UN Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC). This passed through a positive vote of 43 Countries and 11 abstentions. Indigenous peoples have long 4 pushed for a Permanent Forum to have the UN give a higher profile and more comprehensive response to their demands. The forum is to have a broad mandate which will address not only the human rights issues of indigenous peoples but also issues around the areas of environment and development, health, education, gender, culture, and social rights. This Forum will be composed of eight government delegates elected by the ECOSOC member countries, and eight indigenous peoples who will be chosen in a process determined by indigenous peoples themselves. Again, the hope is that this Permanent Forum will be established before the Decade ends. For this Beijing Plus Five Review, we looked at the Beijing Platform for Action and identified which programme points have references to indigenous women. The Beijing Declaration of Indigenous Women which came out of the Indigenous Women's Tent in Huairou in 1995 was affirmed as a key document which unites us. It was observed that the analysis, issues and proposals in this Indigenous Women's Declaration are still very relevant and therefore should be used as a tool for lobbying, education and mobilisation. Whilst these gains in the international arena are recognised, we are also realistic in terms of expectations of the UN. It was clear to us that our empowerment as women is not principally determined by UN Conventions, Agreements or Declarations. This will mainly come from our efforts to strengthen our organisations, nations, clans and NGOs on the local and national level. The experiences of resistance mounted by our women and men against the attempts to drive us away or deprive us of our lands and resources area source of strength. The growing efforts to organise indigenous women on the ground and the networking being undertaken on the national, regional and international levels are sources of encouragement. The capacities of indigenous women to protect and strengthen indigenous economic systems which are sustainable and to transmit indigenous knowledge on health, agriculture, etc. to the younger generations should be strengthened. We have agreed that we will expand and strengthen our networking with each other and ensure that information and knowledge on developments internationally should be disseminated widely. We also agreed that we will come together in the next two years for an International Conference of Indigenous Women whereby we will try to consolidate our gains and define where we should be going. Our participation in the UN processes has undoubtedly changed some of the debates on how human rights should be addressed. The balance between individual and collective rights, the balance between civil and political rights and economic, social, and cultural rights, among others, are sharply addressed when rights of indigenous peoples come into the picture. We agree that racism and racial discrimination still remain as major factors causing many of our problems. Therefore we resolved that we will play a more active role in the forthcoming World Conference on this issue. We support the Beijing Platform of Action but we regret that there seems to be a backsliding by governments in meeting their commitments in Beijing. This holds for the governments of both the North and the South. 5 Our elder, Lorraine Canoe, reminded us that we should not put our faith in the UN system because this is still run by governments which colonised us and still are re-colonising us. We should rely on ourselves, the wisdom of our elders, the energies and Visions of our youth, and our spiritual relationship with the Earth and all creation.

Adding Text with Photoshop..
I hope this will help some of you..with so many great tutorials out there..This one may be all wrong but it works for me..
Sorry it took a while to get it to you..I am partially off work today and we are babysitting DGS..he has fallen asleep and I am staying close by so this is the perfect op!
First Open your Photoshop program and a foto:
Click on the T in the vertical bar at the side..
I often pick Scriptina..As the font..which is shown at the top..After you click on the T...Place your cursor where you want the text and type..(Also note that there are 2 layers at the right..this comes in so handy once you get it)
Once your text is there..Go to Layers at the top a drop down menu will appear..click on Flatten ..
Now you will see that there is only one layer on the right.. called backround now..That allows to go and Save:)You do that where File is..again a drop down menu..
That's it!! You can pick colors..move the text..resize.. drop shadow etc..
Did this help?
I'll add one thing - Once you flatten the image, the text is now part of the picture. You'll need to pick your color, resize or move before you do the flatten step.
If you are saving in a .tif format you can leave the layers intact, but this will add to the file size. I usually save two documents one a .psd file with my unflattened layers and one in whatever format I need at the moment. The .psd format allows me to go back and manipulate the layers as needed.
moniqueb - love the font. That's very pretty, as is the flowers. :)
Thanks Monique and Doris. I was going to ask that, with my very limited experience with Photoshop, I wasn't sure if you needed to save the layers before you flatten.
I really appreciate this and aside from that one question I had this seems very clear. I'm going to try what Sharon posted first and then I'll try with Photoshop. So be forewarned! I'll probably be back with questions.

disclaimer: i own nothing
author's note: this is the third and final part of my trilogy which consists of "It's Beautiful Here" and "Sam I Am, Home." Read those first.
How Quickly Life Can Change
Of all the ways Patrick Jane had imagines his first 48 hours back in the states ending up, eating take-out in Teresa Lisbon's bed had not even been a consideration. But lying there, slightly propped up against the headboard, he realized that is was the best possible end to his year-long journey.
Clothed only in his boxers, Jane was a little chilly as he took another bite of Kung Pao chicken. But when he looked over at Lisbon who sat cross-legged at the foot of the bed wearing only his dress shirt, he didn't mind being a little cold. He smiled when he realized that they had been so intent on not breaking their kiss as they stumbled through the house, shedding clothes as best they could, they he had no idea what Lisbon's house looked like apart from her bedroom. He was brought out of his thoughts by the sound of Lisbon's chopsticks clicking together. Her eyes were focused on her carton of Lo Mein noodles so Jane took the opportunity to study her face.
He hadn't known until that moment he'd seen her in her office, just how much he'd missed seeing her face. It was like a string that had been wrapped around his ribs was all of a sudden loosened. It seemed almost too good to be true that he got to see her like this, touch her, kiss her, and make love to her. A part of him wondered if it was more that he deserved.
As he studied her face, he realized that along with excitement and happiness, there was fear lying just beneath the surface. Placing his leftover food on the bedside table, he reached over and placed a hand on her bare calf. "I'm not going to leave again," he said softly.
Lisbon looked up in surprise. She had almost forgotten what it could be like with him. How it could feel when someone knew what you were thinking. She wasn't sure how she should respond. He had read her correctly. She was scared he'd leave again. Or that she'd wake up and realize this was all a dream. Having him back was like a warm day in the middle of winter. It felt too good to last.
"I had to leave," Jane explained when it was clear she would not speak. "If I'd stayed, I would have ended up resenting you. It would have destroyed me. I had to let them go. And leaving seemed like the only way to do that."
"I know. I understand. I've always understood that." She didn't tell him thatwhen her mother died, she had hitchhiked from San Diego to New York. Only fifteen years old at the time, it wasn't until she jumped into the chilly Atlantic waters that she felt stable enough to go back home.
Jane could see the wheels of her memory turning but he didn't ask what it was she was remembering. He would at some point. And she would tell him one day. Learning new things about her and her past was something he was looking forward to immensely. Still sensing her hesitation he sat up and tugged on her arm until she, rolling her eyes slightly, placed her food next to his and sat down between his outstretched legs, her back against his chest. He kissed her neck and smiled when he felt her shiver.
"I promise you," he said, wrapping his arms tightly around her, "that I won't disappear on you against like that, at least while I'm alive."
Lisbon leaned her head back against his shoulder, hoping gravity would stop the tears in her eyes from falling.
"I can't promise you a lot," Jane continued. "You and I both know how quickly life can change. But I can promise you that." He felt a drop of wetness on his clavicle and reached up to brush her tears away.
Lisbon covered his hands with hers and brought his arms back to wrap around her again. "People I care about...people I love, they tend not to stick around very long. So it might take me a while to really believe you. But I'm trying."
Jane felt a sense of guilt come over him. He let out a breath and spoke softly against her shoulder. "I know it doesn't make it better, but I'm sorry that keeping my sanity required me to hurt you."
"You don't have to apologize."
"I know I don't. But I want too anyway. I am sorry. And I'm grateful for what you did, not only on that roof but at the cemetery. You deserved better than what I did. And I'll try to do better by you from now on."
Lisbon said nothing. There was really nothing to say. And the feeling of him pressed against her made it difficult to speak. There were just much better ways to pass the time. Turning in his arms she gently traced the lines of his face with her fingertips. She marveled at how there seemed to be fewer now, though he was a year older.
"You really let them go didn't you?" she asked.
"Yes, I really did."
She ran a hand through his hair. During their time working together she had always wondered what his blond curls felt like, though she would never have admitted it. She was happy to know that they were as soft and fine as she had imagined. Jane leaned into her touch and she thought that if he'd been a cat, he'd have purred. "And you're really here," she whispered.
He grinned at this. The grin she always associated with him. "Of course I'm here. Where else would I ever go? You can't get rid of me now my dear." He kissed her nose. Then his face turned more serious. "I've seen the whole world Teresa. But it was your face I couldn't get out of my head."
She kissed him then, long and slow. Jane decided there was something better than seeing her in his shirt and he began undoing the buttons. There would be time for more talking later. There would be time to go through the postcards and Jane's second journal and place them all safely in a shoebox to remain in her closet forever. There would be time for facing the team and resuming work. There would be time for repeated confessions of love, for discussions of cohabitation and marriage. There would be time for children with dark curls and bright blue eyes. There would be time for a life.
For the moment, however, they were content to allow the healing properties of human contact to wash over them and let them awake in the morning ready to face the world together.
The End
please review!!!

Political Ecology
Too often, explanations of society-nature relations have been fragmented along disciplinary lines and plagued by dualistic thinking that analytically isolates physical and social phenomena. Political ecology is an interdisciplinary, non-dualistic strategy that remains under development, and perhaps deliberately so, seeking to describe the dynamic ways in which, on the one hand, political and economic power can shape ecological futures and, on the other, how ecologies can shape political and economic possibilities. Often identified with political economy, political ecology frequently takes political economy's interest in the expression and influence of state and corporate power on environmental politics and combines this with insights derived from understanding and analyzing environmental influences on social activity. In this manner, political ecology extends theoretical inquiry beyond the insights of the conventional social and natural sciences. Political ecology's ability to engage the philosophy and values of ecological justice has made it attractive to many who expect analysis to facilitate social change.
CEEP has developed a range of seminars and undertaken a variety of projects and activities that have examined, developed, and applied political ecology. Many CEEP students have employed this approach in their own research.

Bamboo Trellis and Lacunosa Cuttings
At first, I was nervous to try a trellis with my Krimson Queen... because she had been in the exact same position for three years, but I just love the way they look... and I felt bad letting her pile up on the table. I hope she likes it. :)
AND my little Ruby Sue from Lowes that looked so scabby and mite-y... was given double Neem treatments and then I took a bunch of cuttings. They are all doing so well! YAY!
Hi Postpunkgirl,
Your KQ looks more "transparent" than my KQ. My KQ would never be put on a bamboo trellis because the vines and leaves are so thick.
I also have a H. Lacunosa 'Tove' growing on a bamboo trellis, it's getting along nicely.
My KQ gets a ton of bright sun... and I think the lighting and camera app really exaggerates the contrast as well. Here she is with my regular camera at a different time of day:
The vines are pretty heavy... I had to use a lot of floral clips to hold them to the trellis.
Looks great! I'm sure you've read this somewhere already, but when trellising Hoyas always be sure the growing tip isn't pinned facing down or it will die back to the last node. I think some Hoyas are more sensitive about this than others, and there's still a certain amount of die back that happens because you annoy them for some other reason, so... lol.
What I usually do on the downward loop is leave enough length of free hanging vine so that I can hook the growing tip over a leaf on the other side, so it's pointing sideways instead of down. Seems to work.
But, like I said, I can't really tell what you've done with that lighting. So yr probably one step ahead of me. ^_~
I'll have to take better pics... I was trying to be artsy, lol. I have one vine pointing down, but it is not really pinned at the bottom... so thanks, I will definitely try to take your advice and loop it to the side! And there is also one peduncle that is now facing SLIGHTLY upward as opposed to down. Should I worry about it as well?
Nah, I don't think they care which way their peduncles are pointing. Maybe if it was budding up at the time...
Love that yellow plate.

SS Support - Memorial Weekend 5/28-5/31
Let's Get This Weekend Started.
Besh, get your hands out of tha bag of Rolo's!!!!!!!!!
Besh, you are too funny! Put the ROLO'S DOWN AND BACK AWAY......no one will get hurt! What's going on??? My whole week has been like that. I have been positively eating and drinking out of control........wow. I hope your day improves it's supposed to be a decent weekend too.
Good morning everyone!
Raeanne, so glad you are going to exhibit your work. I don't recall seeing the still life. Did you show us?
My still life is of a red pepper, onion, 3 plums, a lemon and a yellow apple. It started out fine, until a student from the Saturday class ate one of the plums, and then the following week someone had moved it around YIKES. So I had to fudge it a bit - it didn't bother me that much, because I took it as more of an exercise than a painting that I would ever do anything with. But if he ever does that again, I will leave him a little note.
I have to go home and bake for tonights Open House - and I feel very vulnerable to food right now - so this will be a huge challenge. I would make something I don't like - but I like everything LOL.
Besh - those Rolo's would be talking to me too.
Thanks for all those encouraging words - you girls really know the right things to say!
I will post it after this weekend - unless I sell it, YEAH RIGHT, LOL.
Checkin' in....
Got new glasses today-very mod. Lost my other ones at the beach a couple of weeks ago.
Raeanne---Make something, eat one, and forget it!
Besh: Yum, Rolos! Give that bag to someone or go flush the rest---NOW! I ate some cookie dough last night and it was so good, but I'm off that craving now. I am being good today. Raisin Bran for brekky, salad for lunch.
Maddie, that's it. I'm calling you.
NHSuzanne---Wellllllll, how's end of month coming along? :)
DeeMarie~ Miss Motivator, living up to your name, I see.... :)

Hi Amy!!!!!! Glad you stopped by! You sound chipper! Thanks for taking the time to cut and paste---I know it's time consuming..... It's pouring rain again here. Hawaii sounds SO good!
Raeanne- I was thinking. Next time you do a stillife, throw a bag of Cheetos on the side and save the life of a plum!
BJ - you crack me up - but I think the Cheetos idea is actually a good one LOL.
Amy - I am glad you posted too. I thought you might like the plum story LOL.
NH Suzanne - can you recommend a good restaurant in Providence to celebrate DD's graduation - small group of 6 people. We have reservations for Al Forno's on Friday, but need a Saturday restaurant. I thought you might be able to help - we like all kinds of food, but I was thinking of a place on Federal Hill.
The art show was a huge hit. We got a full page write up in the paper and that drew a big crowd, it is open for 3 days. I am not sure how today went, but last night it was packed. I got to overhear people talk about how much they liked my landscape - that made me feel good. It was very strange to have people come up to me and say "so you are one of the artists", at first I was like, "well no, I am one of the students".
Have a great weekend.
Happy Sunday Morning!
It is a glorious day here in the neighborhood. I am going to go out and hit some golf balls and then take my dog for a walk up the mountain.
Tomorrow we are off to Providence to pack up DD#2, so I won't be around.
Everyone have a great Memorial Day weekend.
Patti - sending special thoughts to Dave this weekend.
BJ, Jen and anyone else crafty out there -
Is there such a thing as copper sheets that are thin enough to cut, but sturdy? I am going to make a pyramid box (small), but it has to be made out of copper. In the worse case, I guess I can glue copper foil (if that exists) to the outside of the box. Can you tell me a good website to look for materials like that?
Raeanne~ Glad you found the info you needed. My experience with copper foil has only been carving and embossing, then a sulfer bath (for the copper, not me!), followed by a brushing with steel wool on the parts that were raised. Makes a very cool piece of artwork. The only bummer about working with soft metal is that once you bend it or stretch it, you can never go back, so work slowly and without distraction. Some day, I'd love to do that type of project again, but for now, I string beads.
Have a great Sunday! I gotta clean sweep my office!---it's ridiculously full of old, unloved projects and paper.
Let's all hold good, positive thoughts for those who gave their all for us. My dad was a WW II veteran, who earned a purple heart; he was a brave, kind man, and I miss him.
Good MONDAY Morning!
All you guys are way too crafty for me. I still haven't got the hang of macaroni pictures!!
Gotta run out to Rag Shop to get some frames for pictures I bought on my cruise. Got a coupon off the 'net, so I'm going to get the Early Bird specials.
DH is working today, so I hope he gets home in time for us to do some special stuff together. Yesterday we had a great time at the BBQ. I played some odd basketball game with DH and 2 other couples, and I didn't do so badly for being 5'2"!! I came in 2nd behind one of the guys!!! We laughed over that one! I'm not too bad at free-throwing.
Gotta run and dry my hair.
Make this a GREAT DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Good Morning:
DeeMarie, I loved your message this morning. You could have been writing about my Dad, and I miss him also.
It is beautiful here today, and it was supposed to be raining. I went out on the boat yesterday and it is was nice, but sooooooooo windy. Today it is more yard work.
Speaking of being crafty, I am painting a pair of Dr. Scholls sandals for my sister for her birthday. I will ask Marci to post a picture when I am done. I hope they come out the way I have them pictured in my head! My craft projects have a way of looking completely different than what my original idea was!
Have a great day!
Love, Besh

Reds ban Digby Ioane for Western Force clash
March 11, 2013
Digby Ioane has been dropped for failing to meet expectations of his behaviour as a senior player © Getty Images
Queensland Reds have stood down Digby Ioane from the Super Rugby match against Western Force on Saturday, after his involvement in an alleged assault at a Melbourne pub.
"Discussions between the QRU and Digby were held on Monday morning and all parties have agreed that Digby failed to demonstrate the necessary behaviours expected of a senior player within the Reds squad," Queensland Rugby Union officials said in a statement.
Victorian police are currently investigating an alleged assault involving Ioane's older brother and another patron at a Prahran hotel on Saturday afternoon, a day after the Reds beat the Melbourne Rebels 23-13 at AAMI Park. Ioane, 27, has reportedly been questioned about the incident.
Reds coach Ewen McKenzie said the decision to drop the Wallabies winger for the match related to expectations of his behaviour as a senior player and not to the police investigation.
"As an organisation and as a team we're not happy about some of these things that are going on and the headlines ... that goes around with that," McKenzie said.
"We're taking a stand at this point in time that this type of behaviour is not what we're about. I've spent a lot of time speaking to Digby this morning about his role and responsibility in the team, and he gets that. We had a long discussion around where he sits as a role model, and out of that discussion we have to send a message. This isn't just a message to Digby but to all our players about what we think is acceptable and what isn't. It's irrelevant of what's going in terms to the police investigation. It's how we want to be seen in the rugby community."
McKenzie must now field two new wingers against the Force, with fellow Wallabies flyer Dom Shipperley sidelined by a back injury.
Ioane was free to train with the Reds on Monday afternoon, and he will be available to return against the Bulls at Suncorp Stadium on Saturday week.
