CUMBERLAND — Although details are still being ironed out, officials with the Allegany County Board of Education are expressing relief that a plan has been developed that will place security officers in schools when they open in August.
Members of the Allegany County Board of Education are scheduled to meet with Allegany County Sheriff's Office officials on July 25 to coordinate the first-ever enhanced school security plan, which brings trained law enforcement officers with access to firearms into all 23 public and three private schools in the county.
"I feel good about it. I can say for certain that our kids will be a little bit safer this fall," said Mike Llewellyn, board member and liaison for security to the Sheriff's Office.
The plan currently includes the hiring of about five security officers by the board, who will be in the schools on opening day.
"The guards will not wear a uniform but will have a concealed firearm," said Llewellyn.
In addition, the sheriff's office is also looking to add officers to be used in the schools.
Officers added through the sheriff's office may take longer to get in place due to additional training and administrative processing.
A committee made up of local law enforcement officers and educators recently studied school security and recommended recently retired police officers as prime candidates for the security work.
The hope is that the schools will eventually have fully trained security officers, known as school resource officers.
The officers typically have all the necessary training making them a specialist in school security, including a certification to teach a drug awareness program known as DARE.
According to Llewellyn, the security plan contains five patrols:
• Georges Creek, which will include Westmar Middle School and Westernport Elementary.
• Parkside and Cash Valley Elementary.
• Cresaptown and Bel Air Elementary with the Career Center and Calvary Christian Academy.
• Flintstone and North East Elementary and Lighthouse Christian Academy.
• The Mount Savage School.
Cumberland and Frostburg schools, along with the Alternative School in Eckhart, have already been receiving security coverage.
"I didn't want to see these kids in the outlying areas not get the same coverage," said Llewellyn.
The response time by law enforcement to any incidents and ways to improve it have been a primary concern for education officials.
"Response time is critical; With the plan that is worked out, the response time should be OK," said Llewellyn.
The process of getting the security plan to this point created a lot of tension between the board and county commissioners, particularly over funding.
The board's initial request in March for financial backing from the county, a major funding source, was for $480,000. In addition to officers, the plan also included enhanced mental health coverage.
The county subsequently allotted $190,000 and announced it will be dispersed to the sheriff's office to operate the security plan. The board had requested that they receive the funds and be allowed to administer their plan.
Board members grew frustrated by the lack of trust it felt it was shown when the funding was placed in the sheriff's office hands.
"We were told that it would take up to two years for the sheriff's office to get officers in place. We needed something in place when school opened," said David Cox, superintendent of schools.
Cox said the school board could not go two years without protection for the students.
"Now, we need to figure out how to pay for it," said Llewellyn.
The board fears having to use money in their general funds that may result in the cutting of educational programs.
"We may try to borrow from different line items across the board. We hope we don't have to cut entire programs," said Llewellyn.
Llewellyn was asked about the journey the plan has taken.
"Back in January there wasn't even any public discussion on this. You just have to keep your focus on the safety of the kids," said Llewellyn.
The process has many challenges to still be resolved.
"It hasn't been a pretty process," said Llewellyn.
He said the plan will be reviewed after one year.
"I want to do it for a one-year trial basis. We can then see if it helps or what changes made need done," said Llewellyn.
With the board and the sheriff's office preparing officers for duty, a decision will need to be made on what mix of officers would be best suited for the security detail.
Speaking in light of the Sandy Hook school shooting tragedy, the commission study advised: "No jurisdiction can any longer say, 'It will never happen here.'"

The fact they ignore a serious target market should be revealing by now. Apple prefers iStuff. It's a shame, the Mac Pro tower literally beat the pants over its competition in terms of a quality build, and was a unit I would openly praise (and still do, but the hardware is sorely dated...)

"Professional" sometimes means "Broadcast"
What's with the #trendyprog bashing of "professional" users here? Some of these memes (eg: that grumpy editors are being displaced by a new generation of self-taught FCP X users) are simply fallacious. I was personally intrigued after experimenting with FCP X recently (particularly how they reworked color correction); but at times it feels like a 64-bit Instagram for video.
At my facility in NYC, we have a storage network with GigE connectivity to each Mac Pro workstation (and a few iMac workstations as well) - all running FCP 7. We have certain policies and procedures in place that allow us to collaboratively work on projects, track assets, and layoff our content to SD and HD tape, as well as to LTO. Because we are both a broadcast facility and a university, we have unique needs: particularly in the realms of preservation & archives, as well as the routing, playout and delivery of our content/streams through RF and IP media networks. We need ethernet ports, PCI slots (AJA's IOxt Thunderbolt to HD-SDI devices for our iMac workstations [lolz] aren't cheap), and DVD burners in our hardware. We need our software to play nice with networked storage. We need to monitor signals on "broadcast-quality" monitors (that's *ProTalk* for all you F4NB0IZ out there). FCPX simply does not meet these needs, and is an operational hindrance. I'm hopeful that Apple will offer the tools our broadcast facility needs in the future. But we've essentially moved on to exploring Premiere, and recognize FCP7 will be phased out eventually. Everything dies. |

There is a specific methodology but it does work on some network storage set ups. To say it doesn't at all isn't particularly accurate. Certainly, there are some media catalog systems it doesn't work well with but zero doesn't really fly.
http://www.fcp.co/final-cut-pro/news...ivers-for-fcpx Again rather curious stance given the incremental progress over 2012 that needs are not being met at all. Again there probably are legacy equipment that is part of some folks infrastructure that isn't covered. Quote:
Very similar to graphics drivers. There is a layer on top that Apple does but the low level stuff is all Nvidia's and AMD's responsibility. There are organizations that like to look for "one stop shopping" ( or "one throat to choke"). Apple never was keen on filling that kind of role but played with it from time to time. Right now they have an awfully big throat, so nobody is going to choke them anyway. Selling product support services is not a targeted growth sector for them. |

Rosetta was only need for PPC only apps. Those apps were not Universal at all. In fact, they are apps (and drivers ) that ignored the Intel transition completely. Folks who were relying on those apps for the long term were burying their heads in the sand if they didn't think that represented a very significant problem for them to resolve. Rosetta was only a transition technology. Apple had previously cut off Classic (Mac OS 9) support and before that 68K support. Quote:
Markets were the number people in it is highly stagnant aren't very interesting to Apple. Markets with very high legacy sunk cost infrastructure, high barriers to entry , and semi-monopolistic control over delivery isn't particularly interesting. Those markets tend to be relatively stagnant over time in term of being a system supplier. Those kinds of users of equipment tend to buy and then squat for as long as market conditions permit. |

And a quick disclaimer here. The term "professional" these days is so blurred that it's pointless to use it anymore. Anyone who makes a living doing said work is a professional. That includes the large studio/broadcast collaborative teams along with the home office single users. At the end of the day the software is only a tool. The myth of the old, unwilling to try new things, curmudgeonly editor is just that. A myth. These are the same people who used to have to cut films by actually cutting and splicing film, or editing deck to deck, and so on. You really don't think they'd welcome a way to make it easier to do their craft? That's what they've been doing throughout the evolution of film/video production. The whole whine fest from both sides of this argument is tiresome. Just use whatever will get the job done. I've been an FCP editor a long time now and have used Premiere on projects when necessary. I'm moving to Avid solely because that's what my next job calls for. I welcome the future progress of all of these programs. The blind loyalty to one platform is just annoying and ruins any legitimate discussion on the topic. |

X functions just fine using centrally served media over GB ethernet. The only thing local is render files, and if you set it up on a SAN, you can leave those on the server ask well. Lot's of misinformation flying around... Look, if you don't *like* it, or it doesn't meet a specific need you have... fine. But all this whining about how Apple has "abandoned" the poor pros is utter horseshi*t. There a plenty of NLE's and OS's to choose from. Just use another one. Get over it. But you're missing out on an awfully good one if you do. Last edited by plysat; Mar 30, 2013 at 02:10 AM. |

They already have that sort of competition.
" ... Workstation market leaders have played quite consistent roles over the past two years: HP holds steady with its leading market share, Dell's share slides, Lenovo's share gains, and Fujitsu holds steady, in a distant minority position. That trend held in Q4'12, with two exceptions. First, Lenovo broke a 7-quarter long streak of quarterly share gains, declining modestly to 12.9%. And second, climbing to 42.8%, HP resumed its market gains, gains that had stalled since the first quarter of 2011. ... " http://jonpeddie.com/publications/workstation_report/ Apple is a distant "also ran" in the workstation market. They aren't a Tier 1 player. It is more so do they even want to compete or not. Not whether there is competitive to their products. Competition isn't the primary issue. From same report: "... All told, workstation vendors shipped about 934 thousand branded workstations, essentially flat from the third quarter's 932.3 thousand. And considering that Q4 is typically, cyclically stronger than Q3, flat isn't great. ... " Lack of overall market growth is. It is whether is a growing pool of buyers that is an issue. Equally other Mac products volume numbers isn't the issue, but Mac Pro probably needs to contribute to growth ( or be axed for something that will ). |

I'm squarely in the "what do I buy now?" boat.
Slick marketing campaigns don't translate into support for professional users with a business to run. The sad thing is that Apple could easily have the consumer and professional markets well serviced, but the way they treat us as professional customers leaves a lot to be desired and certainly doesn't give me confidence to invest in their editing software as a platform for my business. I was all set to go Avid, but now it looks like they are in big trouble. Now I'm looking at Adobe, but its not clear what their intentions are. |

Thanks @Smarty #222222 is perfect.
The default font is too light and too small – noticed that on a few of the modern themes.
In the download area I noticed this note…
"Note: You may wish to Install and Run the Regenerate Thumbnails plugin in order for the featured images to be available in the appropriate size for the slider and other sections of the home page."
So I'm guessing that the slider displays the featured images, but you say not.
Can only suggest that you make sure you have saved the new featured image and clear your cache.
Your background image is 2000 x 1246
It looks pretty sharp to me but why not cut it down to the 1600 x 1050 used in the demo?Cut it to the required dimensions and optimise it using your image editing software.
I've just taken a look at the background image on the demo site using Developer tools and the image used is 1600 x 1050Hope that helps.
Great stuff – looks good.
The text "Enter photo number here" is black so you can't actually see it when you look at the site.
Take off the title and change the text in the search box.
This post shows you how to customise the search box…
Hi Kath
I've not got anything live (sites are on local installs) but here are a couple of screenshots of Pretty Pictures and Stretch.https://twitter.com/wmwebdes/status/275279521182265344/photo/1
I've also done reviews of both themes on my site.
Hope that helps.
Can we have a link to the actual site please.
That way we can take a look at the CSS and adjust it on the fly.Agree with Colson
The border is generated by this CSSiframe, .entry-content img {
background-color: #fff;
border: 4px solid #ddd !important;
box-sizing: border-box;
padding: 1px;
}Remove the border and it looks fine.
Have you taken a look at this post by Brian Gardner?Good man – looks good to me.
The CSS is reflecting the image behind the h4 tag
bottom-1 h4 {
color: #222222;
font-size: 14px;
font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana;
font-weight: bold;
margin: 0 0 0 0 !important;
padding: 5px 10px !important;
border-bottom: 1px solid #d9d9d9;
background: url(images/nav.png);
border-top-right-radius: 8px;
-moz-border-top-right-radius: 8px;
-webkit-border-top-right-radius: 8px;
border-top-left-radius: 8px;
-moz-border-top-left-radius: 8px;
-webkit-border-top-left-radius: 8px;
}Shall we say that this one is resolved?
Let me know how it goes Martin.
Hi Martin
Do you have a copy of your original stylesheet?Styling for widget areas on home page is currently…
#home .widget {
margin: 0 0 10px 0;
padding: 10px !important;
}Look on the original stylesheet and see what the styling for #home .widget was.
If you don't have a copy of the original stylesheet download the theme to your desktop and take a look at the stylesheet.
Colour of your h2 is defined by…element.style {
color: #00679e;
}When you say "page title" do you mean "What is In-Home Care?" because that is an h1 tag.
The h1 tag (and the other tags shown below) is styled with this CSS…
#content h1, #content h2, #content h3, #content h4, #content h5, #content h6 {
color: #444444;
font-family: Arial, Tahoma, Verdana;
font-weight: normal;
text-decoration: none;
margin: 0 0 5px 0;
padding: 0;
}Change the colour to what you want and create a selector for the h1 tag (include any other tags you want to use that colour.
Hi Sanjeev
Great job you've done on your site – many congratulations.My comments:
1 – I'm not a lover of rotating adds, but that's just me.
2 – For a technology site like this a premium image would really lift the site, again that's just my opinion.
It would have to be the right image, but it would turn a good looking site into a great looking site.3 – And as Carrie said… welcome to Genesis.

| BSOD 8 times this month Hi all, Attached, hopefully, is the full BSOD zip file with all the review needed goodies. The debugger Bugcheck read of the last dmp file says that it is a WHEA_UNCORRECTABLE_ERROR (124) - that's the debugger shouting, not me . We rolled the computer ourselves & the systems specs are below with the My System Specs clickie. Ran memory check (memtest86+ for 6 passes with zero errors) and that was okay. BTW, we rolled a twin computer with the same computer hardware config, dual monitors (different monitors though) & pretty much the same main software & that unit is not falling victim to repeated BSOD episodes. So maybe missed some hardware driver upgrade or perhaps hardware itself? The video card is running the latest driver & in fact knocked its performance down a bit to see if that was it, but without success. Many thanks in advance for any assistance on this problem! weejee |

| Thanks to the three folks who stopped by and peeked at the zip files to kick the tires. With the 124 error, are we correct in assuming it is a hardware issue? If so, are we correct in assuming that 6 passes with memtest86+ with zero errors likely clears the memory as a problem? Does anyone have any ideas on stress testing either the pair of video cards or the motherboard in a fashion similar to the utility we used on the memory? The only idea we have left is to pull one video card and see if the BSOD goes away. Then replace the first one and pull the other for a similar run. Any other suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Best regards, weejee |

Cheers you BSOD gurus. Again, thanks in advance for any insight. Even if just to tear the computer apart piece-by-piece. weejee |

| Had some more BSODs the past few days, but not going to bother posting, since the last have not been looked at. This morning I pulled the second video card & re-seated the primary. I'll run this for a few and see if the BSOD raises its ugly head. Usually been every one to four days. One item of note was the second video card was not as warm to the touch as the primary. That said, the primary was warm to the touch, not hot. |

| Well pulling the #2 video card did not stop the BSOD. Had another one this morn. The earlier BSODs all had 0x..124 Bug Check Codes. Recently the BCCs included 0x0000000a (today's) and 0x00000101 (7/2) in addition to a 124 on 7/3. I've pulled the #1 slot video card and swapped it with the secondary card that I had previously pulled (see above). Since I've got some BSOD BCC other than 124, I've attached a zip file with the ...jcgriff2 folder and a post-crash perfmon.html. Any help will be appreciated. Thank, weejee |

| Hi all, Pulling #1 video card and putting #2 in its place did not stop the BSOD. Likewise disabling hardware acceleration for Flash did not stop the BSOD. What is next? Perhaps selecting components at random on the motherboard and pulling them out with a set of vice grips? Does anyone ever answer these postings? Thanks, weejee ps, the last crash zip file is attached, but not sure that matters since no one has looked at the last couple. Oh well, enough whinging. |

| Sorry and this might be a little late but normally the 124 error is due to an overclocking error. If you have adjusted your voltage settings in the bios that will cause the 124 error. If you have not adjusted them then some of your hardware is requiring extra power to operate at the current settings. I'm sorry if other people told you this already but I didn't see any other posts other than yours. The 124 error means you will need to adjust the vtt/QPI voltage settings. Bad thing about this code is it doesn't say whether you have too much or too little. Try adjusting first down several times and then up several times. Hopefully one of those will be the right one. The 101 code is for the vcore, (CPU), not getting enough voltage. Increase that slowly and MAKE SURE YOU KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR CPU TEMPS! My advice would be to only put in the minimum of hardware and make sure the bios are at factory settings first. The other thing is maybe your psu is going bad? Fluctuating power across your board will give you similar results before frying something. You might try swapping it out with the one from the copy machine you have. If your looking for testing software My favorite it OCCT that you can get here. It will test your cpu-all cores, GPU and PSU. |

I need a "new" mattress.
March 10, 2011
Why are there so many "new" mattresses on Craigslist and on hand-written signs at intersections? Are they really new?
And then there are the Mega Mattress Wholesale Blowout Stores. The prices seem too good to be true. Are these mattresses actually new? Are they really name brand, or do they somehow sew labels onto no-name mattresses to make people think they're Sealy, or Serta, or whatever?
And where do they come from? Are there frequent mattress heists that I don't know about?
Aside from the obvious pee stains (or worse), how can I tell if a mattress is actually new? Have you had success in buying a mattress on the cheap? Horror stories are also welcome.
I'm looking to buy a new (or very nearly new) king-size mattress. This is a major purchase for me and I don't have a lot of money, so I'm going a little OCD with the decision-making process.
Recommendations for stores, brands, or particular models are much appreciated. I'm in the St. Louis, MO area, if that matters.

According to this
Slate article from 2000

I bought a used mattress/box spring once under extremely particular and well-researched conditions. When it's come up and I've told people I have a used mattress, many have recoiled in horror. Let me assure you: I would never buy a used mattress unless it could be vetted this thoroughly.
-It was being sold by a guy on my university's marketplace
-He bought the mattress new
-He was graduating a year early (most students move off campus after two years, meaning he had probably only used the mattress for one year, two at most)
-He lived in the most luxe apartment building in the neighborhood, which reinforces the fact that he probably did buy it new and that it's probably been moved by professionals (not strapped to the sport rack of a car) and kept in a relatively clean environment
-I went to his apartment to check it out prior to buying and everything seemed to be in order/mattress appeared to be in great shape
-The guy was easy to find on facebook
-He didn't have a girlfriend and didn't appear to be the kind of guy who got around (i.e. introverted nerd 2 tha max)
-He had a desktop computer in a room separate from his bedroom, suggesting any sort of fluid business he got down to likely wasn't happening on the bed
And that's the story of my used mattress.
For bookkeeping purposes, the mattress is a double-sided pillow top firm Serta. It is the most comfortable mattress I have ever slept on.

I don't have any insight into the cheapo stores and phone pole dealers beyond having read that same Slate article, which is a good one. I will say though that my last couple of mattresses have been the high-end foam ones from Ikea, and I've been very happy with them and with not having to wade through all the hard sell and BS surrounding the industry.

Here in Chicago, you'll see many "mattress scavengers" in the alleys. They're like the metal recyclers only they deal in mattresses. Yes, used mattresses that get thrown out in the trash are often picked up and "recycled". These are numerous stores in the city that pay these guys for used mattresses - in any condition. They recover em and sell them as new.
Makes me itchy just thinking about it.

Can't give any guidance on the origin of discount mattresses and if they're the same quality as "new" or not, but I can give you a horror story:
Friend of a friend bought a mattress from a discount retailer. It was delivered without the plastic bag that new mattresses usually have, but otherwise seemed fine.
About 1 week later they found they had a bedbug infestation. Neither one had traveled recently, no guests over, had lived in the same place for over a year. The only new variable - the mattress.

The people at discount mattress stores are pretty much like the worst imaginable car salesmen. There's a pretty low chance they'll admit to still having any of the advertised discounted mattresses in stock and they'll try to talk you up to something expensive with the hardest of hard sells. You can probably eventually get out with a cheap mattress if you persist but goddamn is it a hassle.

My wife and I bought a fancy, expensive, new mattress. We had fun mattress shopping in a mattress store, but didn't look at the prices while we were trying out beds. There was one we both really liked, and she said "we'll take it!" without looking at the price. I figured, we're both employed, we have extra money for things like this, and our bed is in poor shape.
The I saw the price, and I balked. My wife paid for it on the spot, and I was uncomfortable with the speed of this decision. We didn't try to bargain or reduce the price, or get any token freebies. But we had the money to cover the cost, and then the bed was delivered to our house. After that first night, I realized it was worth it. We'd be on this bed for 10+ years, every night we're sleeping at home. We've slept better than we have in a long time, less back pain in the morning, etc.
In short: if you have the money, don't skimp on a bed, if you find one that you like and is from a reliable source. If you can find a comparable feeling one for less, great, but is it really worth saving a couple hundred dollars, spread over ten years?

I bought my current mattress (and boxspring) "new" for a few hundred dollars at
Building 19
. I'm reasonably sure it was actually new; I don't think it had any branding on it or anything. It was comfortable right out of the bag. I did have to take it home from the store myself, tied to the top of my Honda Civic.
I've slept on it for the past 10 years and only in the last couple of months I've been thinking maybe it's time for a new one. So, that is my positive cheap mattress story. I didn't buy it off Craigslist, but I did buy it from a somewhat sketchy source, and it was fine.

I've slept on discount mattresses and prison-quality (dorm) mattresses. When I was in a position to buy a new mattress for myself the first time, I didn't skimp--and I haven't regretted it. I bought a mid-range mattress (because the firmness I prefer is in the mid-range) from
The Original Mattress Factory
, which I found through Consumer Reports.
I would not buy a discount-store mattress ever again.

I bought a mattress from one of the Mega Mattress Wholesale Blowout Stores. It did not have a brand, but was clearly new. We borrowed a truck to get it to my apartment. It was about $400 for a queen. My husband and I slept on it for four years. It was markedly better than the mattresses we'd had -- which were twenty or thirty years old. But when we actually went to a furniture store and tried some out, we found an infinitely better mattress for about $400 more. Of course, that mattress died a year later, but as it was covered by warranty, we then got a memory foam mattress that was life changing. So in my estimation, the cheapies will be ok, but things get exponentially better when you spend a bit more. The warranty is a good thing.

I bought a memory foam mattress on Amazon. It's been good so far (3 months), and was much cheaper than an equally-comfortable conventional mattress.
Before that, I struggled to comparison-shop for normal mattresses, which are given deliberately confusing names to make comparison-shopping impossible.

After experiencing (and hating) the hardsell at a Mattress Firm store, and almost buying it there, we decided to walk out and reconsider. After some thought and

One easy way to nucleate some thoughts about this is to look up local mattress and sleep stores and see how many of them have a money-back guarantee.
Those money-back mattresses go somewhere, and it might be a somewhere in which they are considered "new", if only in comparison to some of the scarier ones described above.

We just got a Sealy king mattress and box spring from Costco and it's amazing. It was just under $800 with a coupon. And we can take it back any time if we decide we hate it. Oh, and it was $100 cheaper in the store, picking it up yourself, than buying online and having it delivered.

29 August 2012Title:Low fertility increases descendant socioeconomic position but reduces long-term fitness in a modern post-industrial societyAuthors:Anna Goodman, Ilona Koupil and David W. LawsonJournal:Proceedings of the Royal Society B
As societies get richer, family size generally falls. This puzzles evolutionary biologists, because natural selection usually favours organisms that maximize opportunities for reproduction. Research published in Proceedings of the Royal Society B this week, reveals that having a small number of children increases the social and economic success of descendants across up to four generations, but reduces the total number of long-term descendants.
Researchers from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine reject the popular 'adaptive' hypothesis, which proposes that low fertility may boost evolutionary success in the long term by increasing offspring wealth, which in turn eventually increases the number of long-term descendants because richer offspring end up having more children.
The researchers in fact conclude that the decision to limit family size can be understood as a strategic choice to improve the socioeconomic success of children and grandchildren in modern societies, but this socioeconomic benefit does not translate into an evolutionary benefit.The study indicates a conflict in modern societies between behaviours promoting social and economic benefits versus biological success. This contrasts with traditional populations in the developing world, where behaviours that promote wealth and social status usually lead individuals to leave behind more genetic descendants.
The researchers tested these hypotheses using data from the Uppsala Multigenerational Birth Cohort Study, which tracks 14,000 people born in Sweden in the early 1900s and all their descendants to the present day.
They measured the socioeconomic success of each generation by looking at their school marks, at whether they went to university and at their household income across adulthood. Reproductive success was assessed by survival to adulthood, marriage before age 40 (a proxy for 'mating success') and fertility (number of offspring up to 2009).
Among both male and female children in the original cohort, smaller family size and higher parental socioeconomic position were both associated with substantially higher school marks, university entrance and income. These effects were particularly large when low fertility and high socioeconomic status coincided, with the benefits of small family size being particularly marked in wealthier groups. Moreover, these advantages were in turn passed on to the grandchild and great-grandchild generations.
But contrary to the adaptive hypothesis, small family size and high parental wealth either did not affect reproductive success beyond the first generation of offspring or, if anything, showed a negative effect in subsequent generations.
Lead author Dr Anna Goodman, from the London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine, said: "Under natural selection, you would expect organisms to use their resources to produce more genetic descendants, and so increase their Darwinian fitness. The demographic transition is a puzzle because at first sight it doesn't look like people are doing this. One adaptive explanation for the puzzle is that there exists a quantity-quality trade-off, such that having more children leads to those children being less able to reproduce in turn – i.e. higher 'quantity' leads to lower biological 'quality'. However our study found this quantity-quality trade off only applied to descendants' socioeconomic success, not their reproductive success."
Co-author Professor Ilona Koupil, from the Centre for Health Equity Studies (Stockholm) said: "It is important to note the equity implications of these findings. First, this research indicates that differences in family size may have lasting consequences on social inequalities. Second, this research provides evidence for the fact that people's educational levels and wealth not only affect schoolmarks and income in their children but also in their grandchildren and great-grandchildren. From a broader social policy perspective, our findings show that even in a country like Sweden with relatively low levels of inequality, we need policies that seek to equalise children's opportunities across families."

Talk With ME is proud to bring to the ArtSees Diner Radio audience Douglas C. Rapier. While Douglas is very well known around the world for his blues music, his rich baritone voice, and his political blogging.
His newest endeavor is his first published novel, Ovoid Illinois, 'Ovoid, Illinois' is set in a microscopically small town in the American Midwest of the late 1960's. The tale tells of the final high school year of Cheryl-Jean Billingham, cheerleader, aspiring journalist and daughter of the ambitious ex-mayor and Duncan Reynard, singer, musician and eldest son of the town barber. Although of different social circles and circumstances, the two are brought together in a bitter-sweet romance by controversy resulting from faculty in-fighting regarding the high school musical. Cheryl-Jean takes it upon herself to fight on behalf of Duncan, who she feels has been slighted. She quickly finds herself embroiled in faculty politics, small town political wrangling and the larger societal picture of the tumultuous 1960's...

Manage your budget with Personal Budget VP
There are plenty of tools available for managing your budget, from the old-fashioned envelope method to Web sites that automatically import and categorize your bank transactions. Personal Budget VP falls somewhere in the middle between these two options; it lets you keep track of your budget electronically, but it requires lots of manual data entry.
Personal Budget VP's interface isn't particularly impressive, but it's easy enough to navigate. You first specify the currency you want to use and then identify income sources. Setting up the actual budget is simply a process of creating a new expense plan … Read more

The Typesafe Subscription is a simple annual subscription that complements the Typesafe Reactive Platform with certified builds, professional maintenance, support, and operations tools, with no long-term commitment or lock-in.
As a valued Subscriber, you become a member of our Typesafe Together program, which features exclusive offers that we hope you find valuable:
- Subscriber-only access to Ask The Expert webinars
- Early access to Online Training
- Advanced purchase of Scala Days tickets at a discount
- Scala Days dinner with Typesafe founders and tech leads
We're on this journey together, and we're commitment to providing you with the support, tools, and access you need to be successful.
Since we partnered with Typesafe we have had two issues in our production applications. The immediate response and quick resolution provided by Typesafe has been instrumental for us. The Developer & Production Subscriptions give us the peace of mind that our mission critical applications are supported by a world class team at Typesafe.
A stable foundation for your application
The open source development process drives rapid innovation, but also introduces challenges for long-term support as individual components and APIs evolve. To bridge this gap, the Typesafe Subscription includes access to long-term maintained, stabilized, and comprehensively tested and hardened releases of the Typesafe Reactive Platform, including the Scala programming language, Akka event-driven middleware, and the Play Framework. These supported commercial releases, available exclusively to Typesafe Subscription customers, include certified binaries as well as source code.
With the Typesafe Subscription, your team can build against defined, commercially maintained releases of Play Framework, Akka, and Scala with the assurance of long-term binary compatibility and supportability, and without sacrificing the flexibility of open source. That means your development team can build once and hand off to operations, without needing to constantly update your application to track the latest changes in the open source community projects.
Developer support to get you on the right track
The Typesafe Subscription includes developer support to ensure that your project gets off to the right start. Software developers gain access to expert assistance on specific development challenges, advice on best practices, and timely resolutions to issues that are blocking development - under a defined Service Level Agreement (SLA), and through our multiple support channels including our web portal and email. This ensures that your critical development resources are free to focus on your business problem, not the underlying infrastructure.
Production support you can depend on
Once your application is in production, the Typesafe Subscription includes commercial-grade production support to resolve any runtime issues. Subscribers may choose either business hours or 24x7 support, delivered through our web portal and email with guaranteed response times defined by a Service Level Agreement (SLA). As part of the production support, certified hotfixes are available to resolve critical customer issues outside of the standard product release cycle. Production support via the Typesafe Subscription gives you the assurance that your critical business systems are backed by the professional support and engineering teams at Typesafe.
Fast path to the core developers
Typesafe employs many of the core contributors working at the heart of the Play Framework, Akka, and Scala projects. A commercial relationship with Typesafe ensures that your input and requirements will be factored into planning the roadmap for upcoming open source and commercial releases of the Typesafe Reactive Platform.

The following chart summarizes the features of the commercial Typesafe Subscription.

Aerial Adventures in an old forest
Landmark Forest Theme Park (Carrbridge)
Member Name: yellowroses
Landmark Forest Theme Park (Carrbridge)
Date: 11/06/09
Advantages: Education, Adventure and Excitement
Disadvantages: The weather maybe
I remember visiting Landmark as a child myself so it was one of my first choice days out last weekend. It combines learning about nature, where we get our wood from, micro organisms with a whole load of fun.
My son is 5 and very active, getting on with his reading and very interested in science and bugs and doing what a 'typical' boy would do - stuff worms in his pockets, collect twigs and pine cones so this is the perfect place for him to be a kid.
*******Where is it and How do you get there *********
Landmark Forest Adventure Park is in Carbridge (look for the B9153) which is Just of the A9 around 23 miles south of Inverness and 7 miles North or Avimore. Carbridge itself is a small village but the Landmark Park is sign posted well from the A9 in both directions. Cutting through the Cairngorns we managed to get there in 2 and a half hours from Aberdeen but I suspect using the busier roads would take longer.
****** Tickets ******
Day Tickets for adults are around £9.50 and for children £7
Season or weekly tickets are also offered making the rate reduced slightly but for the amount of things there are at the the park the prices are reasonable. It really is a place you can stay at all day and still manage to keep the kids (and the bigger kids) amused.
After buying your tickets your hand will be stamped and you will be provided with a map of the park.
***** Opening Times *****
Between November to March 10.00 - 17.00
April - October 10.00 - 18.00 (19.00 in mid July - August)
The last admission is one hour before the park closes but in my opinion you really wouldnt get to experience the park with only an hour.
For more information see www.landmarkpark.co.uk
***** What is there to do *****
The Landmark Forest Adventure Park is built around the oldest remaining forest in the region.
Tree Top Trail - has been designed to be accessible to all - it is a wooden planked trail suitable for wheelchairs and pushchairs which takes you into the forest. You get to walk through the branches of the trees and experience the forest from a new hieght (but not too high). Along the way you might see some of the local brids and squirrels.
Red Squirrel Trail - Again this route is accesible to all but doesnt climb into the branches. It is called the Red Squirrel Trail as at several intervals along the way there are information boards (designed to keep the little ones entertained) that provide educational facts about the age of the forest, the wildlife which uses the forest and information about the dangers the forest poses and succums too. There is a wildlife feeding area where you can identify and watch the native birds and red squirrels feeding while they are undisturbed by the wooden fencing (with small windows) seperating you and them.
Trees to Logs - a building in which you walk around explaining the processes both old and new of logging. Here they have on display a range of saws dating right back to the first mechanical saws and chain saws. There is also an exhibit on safety.
Forest Tower- I have never been up here myself because of mobility issues but my friend took my son and it is apparently well worth the climb. It is the tallest timber fire tower in the country and a free telescope is provided at the top. It would be the perfect place I imagine to get photos of the surrounding area.
Timber Trail- This trail isn't quite so accessible for wheelchairs and pushchairs although it is relatively flat and people were managing. I guess it would depend on the weather. This trail once again takes you into the forest where you can see the Cone Kiln- thats where the heat up the pine cones in order to extract the seeds. You can cut your own log (watch out for times on the board) on the activities area, and learn how to count the rings on trees to age them. Also can you tell the difference between your wood by the sight and weight of them? There are also various machines that are used in the forest to look at such as swamp excavators.
Then you can walk along to the working steam powered saw mill and watch them in action, the staff are really friendly and didnt seem to mind a barrage of questions. Here you can also meet Lex, the working Clydesdale and give him a pat.
***** Adventure Land ******
This is the part the kids are probably going to begging to go to, or mine was anyway. Here they have two playparks, one specifically for toddlers which is set back a bit from the excited older children. Then there is Ant City Olay are with scramble nets and slides and things.
The aerial adventures all provide saftey harnesses and experienced staff to help. It just depends if your brave enough to attempt them.
The sky dive is one I can personally say I wouldnt do, but I guess it would be a good cure for vertigo. Kids from about 8+ were climbing up the tower and jumping off, the adults seemes to scream th loudest.
The Pinnacle is a rock climbing wall which can take eight people at a time. My friend was able to go with my son and they both enjoyed it.
Ropeworx is an aerial asault course there are two Ropeworx is designed for adults and is a lot tougher than the Tarzan Trail which is suitable for almost all the family. Attatch your harness to the over head wire and tackle the challenges, varying from tyres to narrow beams. This was great fun and one of my sons favourite parts.
For the kids there are the mini cars and diggers (the cars are included in your ticket think you have to pay for diggers. Race the cars round the track.
The wild Forest Maze is again accesible to all as it is a planked walkway throughout. Watch out for the Frog, Crocodile, Snake and Ant hill though. The maze took us around ten minutes to complete. I let my son be the leader and he got tickled when we got lost.
The Wild Water Coaster was what my son was begging to go on the most. This is the only area of the park where we encountered a queue. There are three slides all of which use a raft. I didn't get more than a little damp on any of them. No children under 3 years are allowed on the watercoaster and onlt two are allowed on a raft at once (or 3 children)
******* Other Facilities *******
The Pinewood Grill and Xplore Store are situated right next to the park. The grill sells what you woiuld expect - burgers, sausages, juice, ice creams etc and the it is as overpriced as you might expect. The Xplore store is right next door and sells souveneirs and toys for the kids such as magnifying glasses and balls etc.
The restaurant however is set back from the adventure area follow the bridge across from the other side of reception and find yourself at the restaurant, shop and Microworld.
We had lunch in the restaurant and I was really impressed with the quality, price and service. All the food is obviously homecooked and there is a wide selection to chose from. Homemade soup, freshly made sandwhiches, burgers with your choice of speciality cheeses and dressings to macaronni cheese and mince. You will be given a number while your food is prepared but our took around 5 minutes to arrive steaming hot.
The toilets are clean and are obviously cleaned at regular intervals.
The restaurant connects on to the shop which sells souveniers, ornaments, books, Jam and shortbread etc and toys.
Microworld is next door I can't say I particularly enjoyed it here but my son was in his element. Looking at bugs down microscopes as well as different types of bacteria and body parts is just his thing. There are interactive areas and displays where you have to push a button or turn a handle. I think most people would enjoy it it just wasn't my cup of tea.
***** Overall ****
If you are in this area I would definately recomend a visit. It was a great day out for all of us and my son hasn't stopped talking about it since. The only thing that might spoil it is the weather but as we all know in Scotland you will just have to take your chances.
Summary: Well worth a visit

UPDATED at 5:10 p.m.
IKING — A 23-year-old woman reported missing for six days while hiking the Pacific Crest Trail in southwest Washington was found safe this weekend.
Alejandra Wilson was located Saturday afternoon, authorities told the Associated Press. She was cold and tired but otherwise OK.
A search team spotted the Oregon woman walking in the Crest trail area as she started hiking out. She was reported missing after becoming overdue for a trail check Sept. 30.
Sgt. George Town of the Yakima County sheriff's office said Wilson reported that she got stranded by a snow storm about a week ago and waited until conditions improved before walking out.
"She said the snow was almost waist deep and she was pretty well stuck. She wasn't lost, she was just stuck," Town said in an interview Sunday.
Wilson told authorities she hunkered down and set up camp under some trees to wait out the storm, he said. From there, she said she spotted the Coast Guard helicopters that went up in search of her. The helicopters flew overhead but she wasn't able to flag them down in time, Town said.
"The Coast Guard guys were right on track. They did a good job. She wasn't able to make herself visible," but their presence "gave her real confidence," Town said.
He noted that she still had food when she was located Saturday. She was reunited with her dad, grandparents and friends Saturday.
Some of the volunteer searchers included hiking companions who had been on the trail with her earlier in her trip, Town said Sunday.
The Oregonian caught up to Wilson for a first-hand account and the "chilling" details. Click "continue reading" to read the account from the AP Wire.
NAVIGATION — Long before GPS, Google Earth, and global transit, humans traveled vast distances using only environmental clues and simple instruments.
John Huth, Harvard physics professor and author of The Lost Art of Finding Our Way, says we can still do it.
Anyone who ventures outdoors should at least check out this book and ponder the consequences of allowing modern technology to substitute for our innate capacity to find our way.
Even today, careful observation of the sun and moon, tides and ocean currents, moss on trees, weather and atmospheric effects can be all we need to find our way.
WINTER SPORTS — Today's story about students rescuing a snowshoer's bluetick coonhound lost in the Kettle Range for two nights offers a life lesson to all of us.
Helping other people can be remarkably easy and productive if we just make the effort to try.
Think about what we could accomplish if everyone looked for a way to contribute every day rather than leaving it to somebody else.
HIKING — A couple of seasoned hikers made three classic mistakes that left them out on the slopes of Mount Rainier for a cold night in the woods Tuesday.
In a nutshell:
- They separated from their party (and the party didn't wait for them at a critical trail junction!);
- They didn't bring a map for the area to make an educated decision at the trail junction,
- They didn't have matches that would light a warming fire when they realized they had to spend the night out in temps that ranged to about 40 degrees.
But they did a few things right.
"I can tell you this for sure, his butt is warmer than mine," said one of the hikers, both of whom are older than 75.
"Yeah, how do you know?" the reporter asked.
"Because I was right up against it. And that's a pretty strange feeling, I can tell you."

MOUNTAINEERING — Major searches and rescues at Grand Teton National Park hit a single-year record last week.
The Casper Star-Tribune reports that park officials aren't sure yet why there were so many rescues this year.
The record was eclipsed Aug. 20 when climber Lauren McLean of Lake Oswego, Ore., became the 31st major rescue since the park's fiscal year began Oct. 1. McLean fell 20 to 30 feet because her belay system failed.
The busy year started right away for the Jenny Lake Climbing Rangers. Twelve major rescues were performed during the winter and early spring months.
Full-time ranger Chris Harder told the newspaper rangers normally perform three to four major rescues during the winter.
BACKPACKING — Glacier National Park officials breathed a sigh of relief this week after an aerial search fairly quickly turned up an overdue backpacker who'd set out on an overambitious spring itinerary.
But after returning the Helena man safely to civilization, ark officials issued a press release making it clear they are not impressed with people who set out on solo adventures that have a high probability of putting rescuers in harm's way.
Read on for the details.
NATIONAL PARKS — Search and rescue operations are costing Grand Teton National Park millions of dollars topped by last month's $115,000 search for missing backcountry skiers.
In 2009, the last year figures were available, the National Park Service spent about $5 million performing search and rescue operations. The recent search for Walker Kuhl of Utah and Gregory Seftick of Montana, who went missing on a backcountry ski trip, cost the park $115,000, nearly double of any previous search and rescue operation.
The debate over who should pay for such operations increases along with the costs, according to this story on Wyofile.com.
