In a time of transition, the values by which we judge design are changing.
Frameworks & project stories for UX
Early and influential how-to on paper prototyping
How long since you saw an "under construction" sign on the web? Man, I remember when that was all over the place, with little black and yellow striped signs. So not cool any more. But seriously. Give me a little time.
I'm going to put up all my old old stuff -- ACM articles and columns, the database normalization poster, etc. -- and some merely old stuff, which is mostly design presentations. Then I can start adding new stuff.
Possibly there will be cats.
The appearance and navigation is going to be changing like crazy over the next few days.
Thanks for your patience, Marc 2 May 2013

Latex Allergy (cont.)In this ArticleWhat is latex and where is it found?Latex is a natural product which comes from the light milky fluid that is extracted from the rubber tree. This milky fluid is often modified during the manufacturing process to form a latex mixture. A person can be allergic to the latex or the mixture or both. Latex-containing products are many and varied (see the list below). One of two procedures is employed during the manufacturing of the latex-containing product. One procedure is "dipping," wherein a form is dipped into a vat of latex and after drying, the latex product is washed and then peeled from the form. If the latex product is not washed well, as is the case with rushed production, more "free" latex is present on the surface. This "free" latex is responsible for a great deal of latex allergy. Dipped latex products include gloves, balloons and condoms. A much less allergic latex product is made by molding the latex. Products such as rubber stoppers and erasers are manufactured using this process. The powder of surgical gloves is a significant problem. Latex will easily stick to powder that is commonly used in surgical gloves. When the glove is placed on or taken off the hand the glove is frequently "snapped." This snapping places the powder, with latex sticking to it, into the air. Inhaled latex can be a serious allergic problem. Who is at risk?Some people are born with a genetic predisposition to be allergic to latex. However, repeated exposure to latex is necessary for an allergy to develop. If a person is repeatedly exposed to latex, especially products that are "dipped," the risk of latex allergy substantially increases. Therefore, persons at risk are health care workers exposed to latex products (such as gloves and catheters), people who require frequent surgery or catheter use, and workers in the manufacturing or distribution of latex products. For unknown reasons, people who have surgeries of the spine or urinary tract have a much higher risk of latex allergy for reasons unknown. There is also an interesting association of unique food allergy among persons allergic to latex. People allergic to latex are frequently allergic to bananas and sometimes other foods like kiwi, papaya, avocados and apricots. This association with food allergy is real, but the cause of the relationship is uncertain. |

First illustration for a poster I'm currently working on. This is supposed to represent the word "Denial".
Any suggestions ? -
Lee Fuller
Influenced by the Gotye video? Seems to represent Denial pretty well.. Good work..
Stéphanie Raineri
Oh nope, I don't remember seeing the video of that song.
I've seen this style around, I especially love @DKNG 's work with the elephant poster (http://dribbble.com/shots/290372-Explosions-In-The-Sky), and pretty much everything that @J.R. Schmidt and @Timothy J. Reynolds create. I really like geometric shapes, especially when you suceed creating something great with simple shapes, and I wanted to try. :) -

Nice work @Stéphanie

(Newser) – Michael Bloomberg is doing some serious soul searching about the possibility of buying the Financial Times, sources close to the mayor tell the New York Times. "It's the only paper I'd buy," he allegedly told one associate, and others say that lately he's taken to rattling off circulation and penetration statistics for the paper, and asking why his media behemoth should acquire it. When asked publicly however if he'd buy the paper, the mayor simply quipped, "I buy it every day."
Thompson Reuters is also seen as a potential bidder for the paper. Publicly, the Financial Times isn't even for sale, but speculation is rampant that it will be soon, given that longtime CEO of parent company Pearson, Marjorie Scardino—who once said that the paper would be sold "over my dead body"—is leaving in a matter of weeks, and the Financial Times' CEO is following her out the door in April. Even before that news hit, Bloomberg had commissioned a study into the possibility of buying the Financial Times, Wall Street Journal, or New York Times; the Financial Times was deemed to be the viable option.

Okay, first of all, I love this story and I think I'm obsessed, however (I'm sorry to say this) you're spelling is REALLY bad, have you considered getting a beta to edit your spelling, etc Sorry for the nastiness, RavenClawGirl11Author's Response: Thanks for the review. I know I suck at spelling. I got a spell checker so hopefully the next chapters are spelled better. Report Review
I liked this chapter quite a bit too, but I think that its lacking some detail towards the end. Where Albus talks about his family is great, fantastic even, but the whole kissing part seemed a bit rushed if you know what I mean. Take your time and adds tons of detail to important scenes like this. That's the best way to write a great story :) Off to read the next, ~LilyAuthor's Response: Thanks for reviewing. I agree, I should have slowed things down a bit. I will keep this in mind when I write the upcoming chapters. Thanks again! Report Review
Oooo. I like this story. It's seems fresh and funny. I really like the way the next gen characters are portrayed in this, like Dom for example. A bit rude at first, but very easy to get along with in the end.I also love Scorp, Rose and Maddie. Also Al but i don't know too much about how he is in your story. I'm just a bit biased since he's my favourite next gen character :P Also, I loved the ending. "Yeah, if you asked me then, no. No, I didn't have any idea that Albus Potter would change my life." Author's Response: Thanks for the review. I'm glad you liked the characters so far. I guess I trying to make Al seem a little mysterious in this chapter. Thanks again :) Report Review

Something I didn't anticipate about my move to the city this past December was that it would end in me cooking less than I used to.

I've filled up my time with other things I can walk to: movies at the Little and Dryden, visiting museums, going out for runs, fitting in workouts at the gym. The … Read the rest

Some People Go to Bethlehem for a Census, Others Go to See a Comedian
Last weekend, Amy, Arthur, and I went to Bethlehem, PA to see Marc Maron on his Out of the Garage Tour. None of us* had been to Bethlehem before. We came in along a hill packed with small run-down houses that Amy started calling Shantytown. As we were driving on this fifty-degree-and-raining day, I saw a shirtless guy standing in the middle of a side street shouting at, apparently, life, and I thought, Yes, exactly. This is exactly what happens here.

Having a Productive Morning Doing Every Single Thing in the World Besides Packing for My Trip
The train to Toronto doesn't leave until 2:00 (in theory–I haven't checked to see if it's running late yet), so I feel like I have time.

I've also been planning two other trips because everyone knows the best time to plan a trip is the day you're leaving to go on one you aren't adequately prepared for.

Lucas joked about how we were spending our evening watching people pretending to be something they are not, and I joked back about how most of … Read the rest

3:50pm – Tuesday, June 14 on ABC2
Rastamouse, Scratchy and Zoomer are from 'Da Easy Crew' – a mystery-solving, reggae-playing band who live by their motto 'redemption, not retribution'. With Rastamouse as their leader they are often called upon by President Wensley Dale to help solve mysteries, catch teefin' criminals and generally making life better for the inhabitants of Mouseland.
Da Crucial Plan – Tuesday June 14 at 3.50pm on ABC 4 Kids on ABC2 All the cheese in Mouseland has disappeared leaving the baby mice at the orphanage hungry. The 'teefing' must be stopped and President Wensley Dale knows exactly who to call – Rastamouse, Scratchy and Zoomer. Da Easy Crew work together devising a clever plan to lure the cheeky cheese 'teef'.
Once apprehended, Rastamouse gives the culprit a chance to 'make good' by becoming the orphanage MC (dats 'Master Chef' by the way) and consequently transforming his life and the lives of those around him.
Double Crossin' Diva – Wednesday June 15 at 3.50pm on ABC 4 Kids Da Easy Crew are preparing to judge a talent show competition when the orphans' mini-bus goes missing. Bagga T's embarrassed 'cos it was him who handed over the keys to a sweet-talking mouse who offered to give it a clean.

The report, put together by a five-man group, headed by RFU disciplinary officer Judge Jeff Blackett, will not be made public. Sections of it are thought to be highly critical.
It was digested during a four-hour RFU Council meeting on Sunday after the panel had looked in great detail at circumstances surrounding the hiring and firing of former Twickenham chief executive John Steele.
Decisions reached by the council included Martyn Thomas withdrawing his nomination for board chairman at the RFU AGM yesterday afternoon; council member Murphy being appointed interim chairman; and the whole RFU board being given a vote of confidence.
But less than nine weeks before the 2011 World Cup kicks off in New Zealand, the RFU has no permanent chairman, no permanent chief executive and they are still searching for their first performance director.
Murphy said: "We were concerned that the reputation of the RFU had been damaged by the recent events which were played out so vividly in the media.
"We wanted to ensure that we put in place an independent panel capable of undertaking a comprehensive and expert review of what took place so we could learn lessons for the future and take the first step forward towards rebuilding that reputation.
"I would commend the members of the panel, because that is exactly what we received. Their report was based on detailed evidence, was thorough and gave clear recommendations.
"In the end, after lengthy discussion, we have taken what we believe are the right decisions for the future of the game and the union itself."
Thomas steps down following a six-year tenure as RFU chairman.
But he will remain in three other key roles at Twickenham - acting chief executive, chairman of Rugby World Cup 2015, which will be staged in England, and as an RFU representative on the International Rugby Board.
"Most people would not be comfortable with being chairman and acting CEO. The staff made it clear to me last week they wanted the stability of the last month maintained," said Thomas.
"I discussed with the board last week whether you could do both jobs. I left the meeting and they discussed it for 90 minutes, looking at all manner of options.
"I was never comfortable with doing the two jobs. The board felt it would be better if I stayed as acting CEO, having done the job since John left.
"What was important was what the staff told me last week. They did not want another change. They wanted stability. English rugby is in a healthy shape - it is not a message of doom and gloom."

Greendale - Four cases of pertussis, commonly known as whooping cough, among high school students have been reported to the village Health Department by the school district.
School Nurse Kathy Andrzejewski said the district may see more cases.
"The district is working with the Greendale Health Department to alert parents of the situation and help staff members contain the spread of the contagious disease," Superintendent John Tharp said. "We are monitoring the situation and will continue to work with the Health Department to ensure that parents and the community remain informed."
Pertussis is an upper respiratory illness that is spread when an infected person coughs or sneezes. Symptoms usually occur within a week of exposure, but sometimes take as long as six weeks to appear, according to the Centers for Disease Control.
The district has instructed teachers to refer students with pertussis symptoms to the nurse's office. The district's custodians have been instructed to ensure that hand sanitizer is available and that common surfaces are disinfected.

Identity: Design Crush
Kelly of Design Crush is one of the Original Gangstas (oh yes, I did) when it comes to curator blogs. Kelly has an eye for all things pretty, unique, interesting and even tasty. She also happens to live in the same city as me. After sharing too many friends and interests in common we decided to meet up for drinks. And then again for cupcakes. And then Kelly told me that I needed to design a logo for her - I was more than happy to oblige.
There are usually two components to a logo - the symbol or graphic and the word mark. Long term goals are important when designing a logo - do you eventually want to brand yourself with the symbol alone (think Nike and Target)? Or do you always want your name to be a part of the brand (think Coca-Cola and FedEx)? As a lover of typography, I am a huge fan of letting the word mark shine. I love to combine and refine typography in a way that becomes a piece of art on it's own.
Kelly's only direction for her Design Crush logo was that she wanted it to be minimal and clean. To play on the concept of "design" and "crush" but nothing too over-the-top. It was important that the logo not distract from the content of her blog. So I chose a modern and architectural typeface for "design" and something a little more flirty for "crush". I played with the scale, composition and detailing until it was just right - and like that, a new logo was born.

Xel Ha, Mexico – Frog Pond 2004
We took a day trip to go to Xel Ha on our trip down to Cancun in 2004. They've got a lot of good 1 day excursions you can do that take you around to see the sites. They've got it pretty nicely setup to cater to the tourists for sure. This shot really caught my attention at how clear it was for one, and secondly how I couldn't see any animals in it.
Tulum Ruins, Mexico – 2004
I think this must have been during my "dark phase". I still like photos to look a little ominous, but when I first started with the darkness of them, I think I went a little overboard; so it often is with art though. I've refined a lot of the techniques with them though.
Anywho, this was in Tulum, Mexico which is south of Cancun. They've got some really excellently preserved ruins down there that made for some good shots. These ancient Mexican folks really had a sweet view of the ocean, eh?
Footprints In The Sand – June 2004
I remember this trip well. I booked a trip for my mom and me a few months prior. I had some extra money and this was back in my days sans kids. I thought it'd be nice for Mom to get away. So I booked 2 tickets to Cancun for us on one of those "package deals". It was about $2500 for flight, room and board for the week. We went, had a good time and actually ended up buying a timeshare at the Royal Sands. We like it, and thought we'd use it more, but isn't that how the story goes with most timeshares? Maybe when the kids get a little older they'll appreciate it.
This was also the trip I where I broke the news to her that she'd be a gramma in 6 months. We hadn't planned on Lilla by any stretch, but here she was coming one way or the other. I think on that stance alone this photo carries some sentimental merit. I can't pick out the perfect verse to go with it, but I gotta think it's in there somewhere.

Swedish sportswear company, Abacus will become the Official Apparel Partner of the Asian Tour, providing a wide range of stylish apparel for officials and staff members of the Asian Tour following a two-and-a-half year agreement until the end of 2014.
Through this new and exciting partnership which was announced today, Abacus will also develop a collection specifically for the Asian Tour, which is the region's elite professional golf circuit.
Abacus will enjoy multiple opportunities to leverage its brand across the Asian Tour's worldwide media platforms that include its official website, www.asiantour.com and a global television platform which reaches over 200 countries and 650 million households.
"We are very excited about this partnership with the Asian Tour.

Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH)
Many men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) have no symptoms. When symptoms (known as lower urinary tract symptoms, or LUTS) occur, they may range from mild and barely noticeable to serious and disruptive. The amount of prostate enlargement is not always related to the severity of the symptoms. Some men with only slight enlargement have serious symptoms. And some men with a great deal of enlargement have few symptoms.
Your symptoms may become worse during cold weather or as a result of physical or emotional stress.
Some medicines can make your symptoms worse. These include over-the-counter cold medicines such as diphenhydramine (Benadryl, for example), pseudoephedrine (such as Sudafed), oxymetazoline spray (such as Afrin), and prescription medicines such as antidepressants, water pills (diuretics), testosterone (gels, implants, or injections), and pain medicines (narcotics).
The symptoms of BPH may involve problems emptying the bladder or problems with bladder storage.
Symptoms related to bladder emptying include:
- Difficulty starting a urine stream (hesitancy and straining).
- Decreased strength of the urine stream (weak flow).
- Dribbling after urination.
- Feeling that the bladder is not completely empty.
- An urge to urinate again soon after urinating.
- Pain during urination (dysuria).
Symptoms related to bladder storage include:
- Waking at night to urinate (nocturia).
- Frequent urination.
- A sudden, uncontrollable urge to urinate.
These symptoms are not always related to prostate enlargement and can be caused by other conditions. BPH symptoms are often balanced between the two types of symptoms. If symptoms come on rapidly, or if you have more of one type of symptom than the other type, you may have another condition. Other conditions that may cause similar symptoms include urinary tract infections, Reference prostatitis Opens New Window, prostate cancer, diabetes, Reference heart failure Opens New Window, and neurologic diseases.
You can use the Reference Interactive Tool: How Bad Are Your Urinary Symptoms From BPH? Reference to evaluate how bad your symptoms are and, later, to judge how well your treatment is working.

15 Not-So-Toxic Toxins
From silica gel packets to poinsettias, dogs ingesting these toxins may not need a trip to the vet
GREAT information.....why there are no comments is beyond me ~ I'm sure that there are loads of people with stories of the weird things that dogs have injested! I had a goat that LOVED spiderwebs.... Thanks, Pseedie! and thanks for remedying the "no comments" :). Yes, it is mind-bending some of the things our pets will eat and I have to say, just when I think I've seen the weirdest thing ever, I get surprised all over again by the next one :). Spiderwebs... that's a new one! thanks again! Shea Thank goodness for websites like yours! I don't have to subscribe to get a clear answer. My gorgeous 2 year old schnauzer has just managed to eat one of my contraceptive pills whilst I was out, you can imagine the panic when I returned home! By looking at your website I have saved time ringing and rushing to the vets. Iwill monitor her at home just to make sure but for the moment your web page has put my mind at rest and I will be finding yet another place to put my medication. Thanks This information helped so much! I came home to finding my 2 1/2 yr old fluffball eating pieces of my used nuvaring. I about had a heart attack thinkin he may die from it. This has really settled me! Thank you! I'm glad I'm not the only one this has happened to! I'm still worried about my Schnauzer. She ate about 16 large cookies made with a white non-toxic glue, bread and water. She has not had a bowel movement although she tried many times when I took her for a walk. I'm afraid the dough will expand and rupture her stomach or interstines as the post says. Should I take her to the vet??? Thank you for this. I have 2 small dogs, and I found a Silica Gel Packet on the floor with most the beads gone and a chew mark on the corner. I don't know which one did it, and didn't know how poisonous they are. I will keep a close eye on them, but am feeling better about it now. Yay! I thought my 3 month old chihuahua pom, Count Chocula was going to die after I found her nom-ing on an iron packet-come to find out that it oxidizes before she digests it--thank you for this site, I was in a panic (I'm still mildly concerned, but at ease now)!! Wow, the same thing happened to us. Our little chi chomped on and slightly opened packet of Ageless Oxygen Absorber. We gently flushed her mouth x 2, then called poison control for animals. They asked for a $65.00 fee before giving out any information. Then we found your web page. Our chi is fine. Thank you so much for having this information available. More in Shea Cox: |

Sarwan stays and Cobb is promoted
Leicestershire have announced that Ramnaresh Sarwan has extended his contract by two years and Josh Cobb has taken over the Foxes' limited-overs captaincy from Matthew Hoggard.
West Indies batsman Sarwan signed in February on a season-long deal and has been a consistent run-scorer in first-class and List A cricket, earning him an extension until the end of the 2014 campaign.
The 32-year-old right-hander, who has not played for the Windies in just over a year, has scored 608 LV= County Championship runs at an average of 43.42, including two hundreds. He also struck 115 from 89 balls versus the Netherlands in the Clydesdale Bank 40.
Leicestershire chief executive Mike Siddall said: "Ronnie has created a tremendous impression since he joined us.
"We are delighted to have secured his services for another two seasons. He is a fantastic player and his influence on our younger players has been excellent."
Cobb, a 21-year-old batting all-rounder, succeeds Hoggard, who steered the Foxes to Friends Life t20 glory last year but to just two wins from 10 games this time.
Cobb, who was skipper in two tour matches this season, has his first assignment in charge today against CB40 Group A leaders the Netherlands at Amstelveen.
Siddall added: "Having seen how well Josh captained the side against Australia and West Indies, Matthew Hoggard expressed a desire to hand over the one-day captaincy to Josh Cobb.
"With the group stages of the Friends Life t20 competition now finished, Matthew feels that the time is right for that change and he will continue to lead the team in the LV= County Championship."

Regarding the therapeutic effects of sunflower-seed oil on infants ("Anoint Them with Oil: Cheap-and-easy treatment cuts infection rates in premature infants," SN: 3/12/05, p. 165), has any research been done as to the health benefits of the oil in any other age group?
Yael Levy
New York, N.Y.
Research to date has focused on newborns, says researcher Gary L. Darmstadt of Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore. However, a few studies have suggested that oil massage enhances wound healing in older children. Oil massage of children of all ages is practiced extensively in south Asia, he adds.C. Brownlee
"Cops with Six Legs: Law and order among insects" (SN: 3/19/05, p. 184) ends with the remark, "overall, 'coercion plays a more important role than kinship in favoring cooperation in insect societies.'" But there's no proof in the article of this being true in the wasps' activities overall. Only some of their egg handling is mentioned. If the conclusion is true, it overthrows 40 years of careful empirical and theoretical work in sociobiology. Somehow, I doubt it.

367 Lower Mall Dr, Winston Salem, NC | Directions 27103

Poor Service with Indifferent Management. First they brought me my beer with at least two inches of foam (both times I have been there). I complained to the waitress the second time and told her her tip depended on a decent pour on the next one. She ignored me until well after i finished the initial beer (Watching football without beer at a bar sucks). caught her eye and ordered a beer that came with even more foam. I said thank you and soon ask for my check. She took my $20 and brought back 11 ones after I told her I wanted my change back! after she brought the change, I had a 1/3 beer left and she ask me if i was going to stay at that table. After I looked at the bill, I discovered she did not give me all of my change (stealing). I made her bring me the rest of my money and compalined to a manager Kevin who acted indifferent. Many other places in Winston Salem to watch football!
Expensive. This place is overrated for the price. One bottle beer is around 4.50 and draft isn't cheaper. The food is mediocre but ok. Won't be back until prices are more competitive. Other places are 2.00 cheaper on any given drink.
Beer and Sports...Original?.
While not breaking any ground in the Pub arena, this is a good place to kick back and watch sports and drink beer or play some pool and drink beer. Inside, the bar is pretty much divided into 3. There is a main room in the center that is about 3/5 of the total space, and it has the bar itself and a dining area with small TVs all around. That way, no matter what side of the table you are eating on, you will be able to watch a TV. The 2 adjoining rooms are pool rooms with a huge screen (4x4 big screens) surrounded by 4 separate big screens. These rooms have a couple pool tables each and less seating.
This location has about 24 taps. most of the beers available are the usual, but they did have a couple different Red Oaks (Greensboro) beers.

Country Music great Glen Campbell has been diagnosed with Alzheimer disease and is currently on a nationwide tour to say goodbye to his fans.
One of the highlights of tomorrows CMA 2011 Awards show in Nashville will be a tribute to Campbell by Vince Gill, Brad Paisley and Keith Urban.
The 45th annual CMA awards take place tomorrow evening at Bridgestone Arena beginning at 8 pm. The show will be carried live nationwide by ABC.
If your daily commute takes you downtown, be aware that several streets will be closed for the CMAs today and tomorrow.
The multimedia experience Freedom Sings opens this afternoon at 2:20 in the Tucker Theater here on the Middle Tennessee State campus.
Freedom Sings is a celebration of America's protest music, banned and censored songs. The show debuted at the Bluebird Café in 1999 and now tours nationwide.
Before the show, you can take a look at some of the original mediafeatured in the program courtesy of MTSU's Center for Popular Music.
A second night with no new arrests in Nashville on Legislative Plaza. Occupy Nashville protesters are, once again, occupying the plaza around the clock.
After the Haslam Administration imposed new restrictions on protests last Thursday, Highway Patrol Troopers arrested a couple of dozen protesters both Friday and Saturday.
But a metro night court commissioner refused to jail the protesters on both occasions, saying that the state had exceeded its authority.
Protest spokesperson Cecily Friday says the arrests have only stiffened protesters resolve.
(AP) Quite a morning for Occupy Nashville.
Twenty-nine protesters were arrested on Legislative Plaza before dawn, then released just a few hours later.
According to WKRN-TV, Metro's night court commissioner, Thomas Nelson, released the protesters wihtout charges. Nelson said the state hadn't given the protesters enough time to react to new protest regulations.
Governor Haslam's Administration announced just yesterday that it was imposing a 10 to six curfew on the Capital grounds where the protesters have been camped out since October 6th.
(AP) Federal investigators say there's been a rash of cases of bank account information being stolen at ATMs in Nashville and Chattanooga.
Crooks are using a device called a skimmer, a card reader that's placed over the regular card slots on bank machines to capture account information. They can also get your PIN number by placing cameras near the ATM.
Agent Greg Mays says the Secret Service field office in Nashville, has investigated 10 cases of skimming in Nashville in the past year.

> : Quite a lot of languages have freely available part-of-speech analysers (see e.g. http://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/List_of_dictionaries) and even disambiguators; one good thing here is that change-gender and pluralise-word would give some hint as to the part-of-speech (in many languages, only nouns can undergo those changes). Where there is more than one possibility (two possible ways of pluralising the noun, or it's noun-verb ambiguous && in a language where both can pluralise), I guess the best course of action would be to simply show both possibilities. So, not impossible, if you find a way of integrating some external resources. -- Unhammer
upcase-word, downcase-word, and capitalize-word come in handy, but they don't go far enough. Some suggestions:
My goodness, that's quite ambitious. Wouldn't this require grammar guides in some parsable form, for supported languages? Perhaps Ispell can do some of this now, though - it does recognize some plurals, etc. Not that I think that Emacs can't extend to that point someday. But there are a lot of problems to be overcome before this could become a reality, I should think. I would be interested in hearing how this could be implemented. – CharlesSebold

I have never brined a turkey and have had mixed results over the years (too dry, okay, just right). But that was with commercial turkey (Butterball, store brand, etc.). A couple of years ago I decided to try a "straight from the farm" organic turkey. I had a turkey (15-18 lbs.) shipped to my house the day before Thanksgiving the last 2 years. It was, by far, the most moist, tender turkey we've ever eaten. I didn't cook it any differently from the commercial turkey I've cooked in prior years. But it was incredibly moist. And the amazing thing was, there was very, very little fat at the bottom of the pan when it finished cooking. Amazing.
We had a turkey on year that was a store-brand (Ukrop's for those of you from Richmond) that was the most gawd-awful, toughest turkey anyone in the family had ever eaten. It must have been an old "Tom" turkey. It was nasty. Never bought another one of those.
This year I bought another organic turkey from a different Virgina farm (talked about in the book "The Omnivore's Dilemma"). I started buying some of our meat from there and decided to try their turkey this year. But, I'm saving it for Christmas.

Broke high school students, cheap grandmothers and petty criminals, beware: swiping a soda refill can actually lead to jail time, as one Florida man can attest. He's been charged with a felony for filling his complimentary water cup with soda at a fast food restaurant.
Mark Abaire, 52, of Naples, Florida, was arrested by Collier County deputies after leaving a local McDonald's without paying for the soda he put in his complimentary water cup. While the felony theft charge he faces for the $1 theft sounds a bit drastic, it turns out that Abaire is a repeat offender — thus the heightened sentence.
While his charge is petty theft, because of previous petty theft convictions, the charge for drinking the unpaid-for soda was increased from a misdemeanor to a felony.
In Florida, a third-degree felony can mean a sentence of up to 5 years in prison and a $5,000 fine. Abaire faces additional misdemeanor counts of trespassing and disorderly intoxication. He was held in Collier County jail with bond set at $6,500. Which is $6,499 more than the price of a soda.

WELCOME TO Stingray Point Marina
Deltaville's Premier Sailboat Marina. Conveniently located near the mouth of Broad Creek in Deltaville, Virginia, Stingray Point Marina provides immediate access to both the Chesapeake Bay and the Rappahannock River.
Stingray Point Marina is a 235 slip marina which leases slips to boat owners on an annual basis. The Marina has ten premium covered power boat slips, and the balance are predominately sail boats, which is the Marina's emphasis. It is open year round and dedicated to an environment in which slip holders enjoy a quiet residential atmosphere void of commercial activities. It is clean, quiet and pleasant with attractive landscaping and picnic areas.
Slip rates range from $1,700/year to $4,300/year depending upon slip location. Mean low water will accommodate drafts up to 6.5 ft. Stingray provides the closest access to the Chesapeake Bay of any mid-Bay Marina, yet provides virtually complete protection from wind and seaway from all directions. Many of our slips provide direct vehicle access for loading/unloading.

Random tidbits of information about projects I'm hacking on...
During the MeeGo Conference I gave a presentation on multi-point-touch support on MeeGo (overview and video slides). As mentioned during that presentation, to add multi-point-touch to Qt applications running on top of MeeGo 1.1 requires a few changes.
The components that need to be changed are:
New components:
To get the above, you can add my home project:
cd /etc/zypp/repos.d sudo wget http://download.meego.com/live/home:/jketreno/Trunk/home:jketreno.repo sudo sed -i -e 's,^gpg,#gpg,g' home:jketreno.repo zypper refresh
Next, force a re-installation of the packages provided from my home project:
zypper install -f --from=home_jketreno kernel_netbook libqt* qt-qmlviewer mtdev \ xf86-input-mtev multipointtouchplugin
It will prompt you to switch to the versions of the various packages provided from the above repository. Accept the changes, and reboot.
The mechanism to talk to the xf86-input-mtev driver is not merged into the Qt package itself. Until that occurs, applications interested in working with touch events need to add the following to the beginning of their application, within the main() function:
foreach (QString path, QCoreApplication::libraryPaths()) { QPluginLoader loader(path + "/libmultipointtouchplugin.so"); loader.load(); if (loader.isLoaded()) { loader.instance(); break; } }
At the beginning of the file, you also need to include QPluginLoader:
#include <QPluginLoader>
And that's it.
The version of qmlviewer built and installed with the Qt package in my home project has the above code enabled, providing Touch events into qml applications run within qmlviewer. If you are loading your QML application using your own native loader, you will need to follow the steps above for enabling a native applications.

Babiana stricta var. regia
This is a very pretty Babiana with purpley-blue flowers that have a rich red center. Very nice combo! The dense flower spikes produce many flowers in the spring. Native to South Africa, it is found growing in sandy or gravelly flats so it needs good drainage. It should also be allowed to go dormant (no water) in the Summer. To 2-5"h.
