Have you ever seen the vast and green Salt Lake and the multi-colored and shaped and jady salt crystal? Do you know how the edible salt is made from the Qarhan Salt Lake in Qinghai, what other minerals are produced from the Salt Lake and why the Qarhan Salt Lake is reputed as a white treasure lake? If your answer is no, let's take a scientific exploration to a world of salt. Standard language courses in primary schools Resource requirements :Mythical Salt LakeQuoted from Plan on Chinese Reading & Writing Week, Grade 4, Beijing Education Press. The main stage activities and page structure include: Activity I: The Salt Lake described in words is the propeller of our travel to it. 1.Inspiration of our interest in the Salt Lake by reading some model essays. 2.Establishment of my own database using indices. Activity II: Work is divided for each team member and a plan for the travel to the Salt Lake is made. 1.Discussion on the travel plan. 2.Framing up a work plan in table form. Activity III: Read thousands of scrolls of books for knowledge and walk thousands of miles for exploration-our fantastic travel to the Salt Lake. 1. Rushing to the Salt Lake. 2. Stepping on the salt dredger. 3. A visit to the Museum. 4. Return with fruitful results, taking a look at the salt crystals, doing experiments and research by ourselves 5. Picture show on salt crystals. 6. Briefing on the fantastic travel to the Salt Lake and writing compositions on the topic. Activity IV: Exploration of the mysteries of the Salt Lake doesn't end. 1Questions after our travel. 2.Interview with experts and keeping record. 3.Making interesting experiments and preparing report or recording the entire process. 4.Knowledge on salt we've got. 1) The importance of salt. 2) The wide uses of salt. 5.Development and use of the Salt Lake. Activity V: The travel to the Salt Lake inspires us to create our ideality for the future. Imagination after the travel: The Salt Lake and Its Use in the Future. Team members and division of responsibilities Pre-trip Tasks: Schemer Toy Investigators JunnaLuke Negotiator Jason External Liaison Tom Prepared by Susan Trip Period:Interpreter Junna Recorded by Jason Susan Photographed by Luke Communicator Toy Collected by Tom After Trip:Interviewer Jason Experimenters Junna Susan Recorded by Toy Coordinator Tom Summarized by Luke. Teaching objectives of this project and expected results: We may have known something about the Salt Lake from legends, stories and its history. But some of us may not have the chance to go in depth into the essence and the mystery of the Salt Lake culture throughout all his/her life. However, it is still our earnest expectation to provide an utmost opportunity to our students for their active study through such interesting activities like Chinese learning, field study, expert interview and experiments with the assistance of the "thinkquest". These activities are designed to lead them to seek the truth under the surface, raise up questions frankly, learn the knowledge actively and learn to communicate with others through an easy, think independently, do planned teamwork, help them acquire positive emotional experience and develop their spirit of exploration. What's more, we hope the children can feel the nature with their heart, feel the change, the grandness and vastness of the Salt Lake, thus they are enlightened to love, appreciate and respect the nature and bear the responsibility of nature protection.

When frying bacon in the pan, it tends to curl. What causes this? Is there a way to slow down that process itself?
Take the 2-minute tour

As the bacon cooks the meat reduces in size faster than the fat does. Since they are cut into strips this causes the fat to bunch up or even coil if the bacon isn't flipped enough. The fat will eventually reduce as well when it renders but not enough to straighten out the poor bacon. |
Somebody once told me it was the saltpeter in it that made bacon curl. I don't know, but he was a butcher. |

"This card is one of the few that works for 2 people. I placed individual photos on the sides and the 2 graduates together in the center photo. I am very happy with the font too which is simple, a good size and easy to read. The quality of the paper and printing is excellent."
"The quality of the paper and the picture image on the back was better than expected. This was my first time using Tiny Prints and I plan on using them again for my Christmas cards. Top quality and fantastic customer service!"
"Very easy to use and upload photo. I like the color combinations - kind of dusky. You don't need to buy extra senior wallet photos to include with your announcement. This invite does it all! I also had a printing error that was on my end and they were very good to work with to correct the situation. Highly recommend. Will be back in 2 years for my daughters!"
"I've received so many compliments on my daughter's grad invitation cards, everyone loves it! The card is very high quality. The printing was great even though my pictures were not high resolution. The style is very nice, eye-catching. I was also impressed when i had to order more and they arrived in 3 days with the same high quality!"
"Great finished product. This worked especially well for us because it ended up being the school colors (Boston College: maroon and gold). Everyone who received an invitation raved about it. I was very pleased with this invitation."

CHARLESTON, W.Va. - Judy Wellington recalls the massive pit downtown when she moved to West Virginia to take the helm at a modest art museum on Myrtle Road in 2000.
The pit, which took up a large city block, was to become a new arts and sciences center and Wellington, as president of Sunrise Museum, was charged with its transition into the new building, where she would head up the art and science component.
Wellington was undaunted by the scope of the project. She came to Charleston from New Jersey, where she had been in charge of the New Jersey State Aquarium, but she'd previously been involved with a major construction project at the Philadelphia Zoo.
"It probably wasn't as scary for me as it would have been for someone else," she said.
There were a few bumps in the road with construction of the Clay Center for the Arts and Sciences - including an opening that was delayed several months even after performers and events had been scheduled.
But when it happened, visitors were impressed.
The very first got to see it during a black-tie gala July 10, 2003 that included 700 guests and music by the Bob Thompson Quartet and the Novo Tempo Big Band.
The $118 million, 243,000-square-foot center officially opened to public two days later - to 2,000 lucky visitors who snatched up all available tickets to the first day's festivities.
Since then, 1.5 million people have come through the front doors, to hear a musical performance, watch a play, see an exhibit, play in the science museum or watch a planetarium show or large-screen movie.
Wellington, now the president and chief executive of the Clay Center, has been there to ride out all of the bumps in the road - and to enjoy the center's evolution.
She credits the board and particularly treasurer Chuck Avampato, former director of the Clay Foundation, for running a tight financial ship and reacting appropriately when necessary.
"That's what he does and he has been phenomenally helpful to me and Rebecca (Gillispie, the chief financial officer)," Wellington said.
"Like everybody, we have challenges," she added. The Clay Foundation, a substantial supporter of the center both early on and in its first years of operation, provided about 15 percent of its budget until it closed down two years ago.
"They were such huge supporters of the city and that's hurting everybody," Wellington said.
"But we're still doing fine. This year, we are coming out with a teeny, teeny, teeny surplus - but we won't have a deficit this year. We haven't had a deficit ever."
There are about 630 subscribers to the Clay Center's upcoming Clay Center Presents series, the most ever. The Broadway Series sells extremely well each season.
The Clay Center's 1,880-seat Maier Performance Hall has filled to the brim for artists such as James Taylor, Tony Bennett, and more recently, the Old Crow Medicine Show and Scotty McCreery.
The latter were a particular feather in the Clay Center's cap because they attracted younger audiences.

EO Essential Oil Products Organic Deodorant Spray Vetiver -- 4 fl oz
Love using this product as used stick style for years but this one leaves no white underarms! Absolutely love the smell of Vetiver and having that as a start to my day is great, I actually look forward to this part of my morning ritual.
This is a bit silly but it feels really good going on too!
May 6, 2013
I don't use anything else!
I love these deodorants, since I came across them they have replaced every other product that I have ever used and I refuse to use anything else. It's all natural so I know I'm not applying some strange chemicals under my arms; it smells wonderful and keeps me smelling great even when I use it only in the morning, no matter what I do throughout the day there is no odor - this was not the case with any deodorant I ever used in the past. I can't recommend it enough actually, I absolutely love it!
March 29, 2013
Smells and works great
This is an very good spray-on deodorant that manages to stave off odor for the day. Some days I might Freshen up with another spray. Otherwise it works fine. It does not dribble down your arm like some others. The bottle is a good hand size so it is light and easy to grab and spray in the morning. It is a great price too!
January 3, 2013
Prepare to stink.
"organic" alcohol and essential oil. seriously, green organic people? even my b/f, who never stinks and in fact smells pleasant after jogging wreaked after using this product. the product itself smells nice, but your underarm will not shortly after applying.

We're at odds here, of course.
But if we're in agreement, doesn't that indicate at least a modicum of objectivity?
If we're just counting minutes, then I've paid far more attention to Big Bang Theory than to Milton as well. But I'm not sure that should have anything to do with our judgment of either.
Which is sort of my point: the fallacy of relativism.
Keith Bruzelius
And your first criteria proves that a million pre-schooler's finger paintings are much more important than anything Van Gogh ever did.
Except, as I point out in #115 above, the first step is to remove yourself from the criteria. · 36 minutes ago
Then you're back to the count of the number of people the missing art would effect. Sounds like popularity to me.
Many more people would miss NCIS (me included) than Girls (never seen it, never will)
So, when you remove yourself from the criteria, doesn't "the assumption that popularity equals merit" have a renewed truth to it?
Thanks for the discussion
Peace. · 1 hour ago
Fair point. But I think the people component is only a very small part. I understand that particular criterion—not my own idea, of course—as relating more to influence than to public popularity.
Except, as I point out in #115 above, the first step is to remove yourself from the criteria.
Your honesty is refreshing. I'm just as arrogant.
I'd love if others were to chime in with objective criteria, but for now, I'll start with one: Is the work in question greater than its absence? If the answer is yes, there's a good chance it's art. If no, it's probably not.
Did your grandmother dismiss the Bach organ pieces outright? Or did she just not prefer them to his other works while perhaps recognizing their genius? For instance, I'm not a huge fan of Rachmaninoff, but for me to suggest that his oeuvre wasn't a tremendous artistic achievement would be the height of arrogance, it seems to me.
Stephen Dawson:
My brother enjoys modern minimalist composers (Phillip Glass, Steve Reich) and he says that he gains emotional satisfaction from their works. That, with music, is an important standard for me. I am utterly immune to their charms (Glass is, for me, all introduction, no resolution). So is my brother a poseur or honest? I'll go for the latter.
I think the first step is to remove ourselves from the equation. Recognizing artistic merit has little to do with our own personal tastes. I'm with your brother re Reich; with you re Glass—but both composers have exhibited artistic genius. (Glass less so, I believe, but still.)
Stephen Dawson
Is 'relativism' some kind of bogeyman which instantly overpowers all opposition? You say that, objectively, Bach is better than Gaga. Subjectively, I agree with the outcome. But objectively?
Relativism is an intellectual dead end. If art is relative, there's absolutely nothing to prevent me from saying a pre-schooler's finger painting is equal to a work of Van Gogh's, or that my poor attempts at fiction are the equivalent of a Raymond Carver short story. But it should be obvious that that's nonsense. It follows, then, that there must be some sort of objective criteria by which these things are judged.
As my kids have grown up and I've had the chance to interact with their peers, I've been heartened by the promise of the future.How's this for some relativity: people are no stupider, and possibly smarter, than they used to be. The appearance to the contrary is only due to the stupid having greater opportunities in today's world to widely display it.
Thanks for the book titles. I shan't read them. Two hundred words might not be enough to prove the point, but should suffice to make_me_doubt. · 4 minutes ago
Sorry for the dismissive tone of my last couple of remarks, Stephen. I'll see if I can frame a response to your question—it'll just have to wait until later this morning. But before I try, why not at least look into Kramer, Scruton, et al.? It's a big question you've asked—one that thinkers have wrestled with for hundreds of years. It surely deserves more than just a response from a hack like me on an online discussion group…
All I can say is: prove it!
I don't believe that you can. Prove that objectively Eminem's 'Stan' is inferior to Schubert's immaculate String Quintet? Prove it!
What are these amazing objective rules that lead us to this clear conclusions? · 8 minutes ago
In 200 words? Sorry. To the suggestions of Crow's Nest above, I'd also add anything by Hilton Kramer. And I'll second Barbara Kidder's Spengler quote. You're already halfway there; the only problem is you've come under the spell of "I'm okay; you're okay." So ask yourself why you and I have come to the same conclusions. Is it nothing more than shared taste? I don't think so.
Spin: Of course if it is popular it has merit. That's why it is popular. The fact that you don't find it to have merit doesn't mean it doesn't have merit to a lot of people. I personally hate The Big Bang Theory, except for the one episode in which Brent Spiner was hawking Mr. Data action figures. But I can see why other people like it.
You can write it off to herd mentality if you want to, but isn't that sort of just saying "well, if you were smart you'd not like that thing that everyone likes, just like I don't like it because I'm smart, but you aren't because you like it." Isn't that what you are saying? · 5 hours ago
That's exactly how it came off to me. · 1 hour ago
Not sure how I can make my position clearer, given that I've said pretty much the opposite. Oh well.
In my opinion Bach is way better than Lady Gaga. (And in Stokowski's; he pronounced Passacaglia and Fugue in C minor as the most 'sublime' piece of music ever written.)
But, how on earth can you suggest that there is anything objective in this? Again, you would need a standard that rises above subjectivity. What is this standard? If you identify one or more, can you be certain that they won't unexpectedly elevate all kinds of terrible stuff?
Some things in life require the exercise of judgement balanced with tolerance. I love Bach over Gaga, but I am happy for others to reverse their preference. · 1 hour ago
To suggest that there can be no objective standards whatsoever in the judgment of art is relativism, pure and simple. Even the most "tolerant" of critics has to agree on that. I'm not denying anyone's right to their opinions. But that certainly doesn't make those opinions valid.
Yes—I clearly read too much into it. Your summary is spot-on.
So does porn have merit? It's pretty popular.
I think you're mostly right. But what if someone's taste says that, say, Lady Gaga is better than Bach—something that is objectively false. (I know, I know, there will be a lot of folks who shriek at the thought of making an objective claim about art, but I'm doing it anyway.) Is it really about taste, then?
Yes! And Grateful Dead, and Miles Davis, and Johnny Cash…
(Sigh.) No, that's not at all what I'm saying. I like some things that are popular; I like some things that aren't. This has nothing to do with me. What I'm saying—again—is that popularity doesn't necessarily translate to merit or value. It simply means…wait for it…that it's popular (!).
The "herd mentality" comment has to do with political persuasions, not intelligence.

I recently learned of a website that helps women research available clinical trials. https://www.breastcancertrials.org/bct_nation/home.seam
It was begun by two breast cancer patients as a non-profit organization in the San Francisco area, and it rapidly gained sponsorship from other big institutions (including the Defense Dept. breast cancer research facility). The site contains an online tutorial on how to use the system, which allows you to create a detailed health history. You can either save it or go ahead and ask the system to match you to potentially-applicable clinical trials. It also gives you a list of hospitals where the trials are being conducted.
Women with breast cancer may consider participation in a clinical trial at various times during their treatment. There are always trials in progress that examine the value of new adjuvant treatments as well as treatments for Stage IV/metastatic disease. Many oncologists will routinely discuss these options with their patients, and we should all listen when they seem relevant. No one is ever forced to participate in a research study, and there can be good reasons to be involved or not. Do remember, however, that everything we know about treating breast cancer was learned because women before us signed up to participate. We stand on their shoulders and careful consideration of a clinical trial may be a way to secure the best possible treatment and to contribute to the future care of those women who will follow behind us.

What Could Go Wrong?: Mind-Controlled Cars
I didn't know you could drive in heaven!
Driving by mind. It's a scary thought(!!!1) because most people are just texting anyways and I'm not sure how a car's gonna interpret that kind of input. You (texting): 'BOOTY CALL!' Car: drive on sidewalk.
Freie Universität Berlin professor Raul Rojas and his AI research team have developed a system called the BrainDriver that uses an electroencephalography head cap to interface with the primary functions of an automobile. Users must first undergo a bit of training, after which they are unleashed to travel the streets using only brain power.
Gee, what could possibly go wrong? SPOILER: "Ugh, I can't stand other drivers. How do you morons even have licenses?! God, I WISH YOU'D ALL JUST GO CRASH INTO -- oh shi-shi."

Sanlam looks to treble assets through regional expansion
by Annabelle Williams on Jan 11, 2013 at 07:53
Sanlam Private Investments is gearing up for massive expansion in the UK with plans to establish a series of regional offices and to treble assets under management (AUM).
Chief executive officer Craig Massey was appointed in a management reshuffle in November last year and speaking exclusively to Wealth Manager he unveiled his ambitious plans for the business, which include growing Sanlam's AUM to at least £6 billion.
'In five years' time I would like to have established a foothold in the Midlands and I would like to be operating in Ireland and in Scotland,' he said, adding that he would further integrate the investment business with the company's other divisions.
These include wrap provider Nucleus, which is based in Edinburgh and, as such, Massey said 'it makes sense for us to be in Scotland'.
'So I would like to be [represented] across the whole of the UK and in terms of assets base. Over the next five years I would have liked to have trebled the asset base that we are working with,'
he said.
'Through the combined entities it is just over £2 billion so I would like this to be somewhere between a £6-10 billion business.'
Massey said he expects to take on wealth managers and advisers with books of clients, but will also look to acquire whole businesses catering to the high net worth market.
'The area we feel we have slipped compared to our competitors is in the private client space,' he said. 'That is the area we are going to be focused on.'
A slowdown in equity market activity has meant trading in the stockbroking side of the business has been 'very tough' and staff cuts were made in the division during the recent restructure.
However, Massey plans to create an international stockbroking desk, allowing UK clients to invest globally and vice versa.
Last week, Wealth Manager exclusively reported online that Sanlam had poached head of
wealth management at Alexander Forbes, Ian Porter, to develop an expansion strategy for the wealth division.

During the fall of 2012 over half a million students nationwide began the year-long National History Day program, preparing and then competing in a series of history contests in their local schools, regions and states. Winners at the state level advance to the national competition in June 2013.
Participating students chose their own topics of study and research from original sources based on the 2012-2013 theme, "Turning Points in History." National History Day students research historic documents and artifacts, conduct oral histories, search the Internet for information on their topics, and travel to historic sites. They present their work in a variety of ways by creating exhibits, documentaries, performances, web sites, or historical research papers.
This year Delta County Joint School District included the National History Day program as part of the eighth grade curriculum. Once the projects were judged at the local level at Delta Middle School the following students were selected to go on to the regional level in the junior division: Matthew Norris, Nathanael Santonastaso, Kali Kirkendal, Eh Htaw Bo, Tre Johnson, Maddy Cronenberb, Jackie Sandoval, Marlene Fuentes, Perla Pantoja-Rodriguez, Liss Sharkey, EwBwe, Luka Htoo, Brianna Rosales, Jasmine Velasquez, Lupita Portillo, Meysa Mulford, Lizzy Ward, Cassidy Parker, Matthew Bohling, Shelby Wilson, Hannah Owens, Shelbi Ledesma, Teresa James, Victor Ruiz, Hannah Branson, Tristan Brown, Justin Violett, Damon Jensen, Ethan Keller, Hallie Timbreza, Megan Sandoval, Destiny Garcia, Emily Nortnik, Philip Santonastaso, Tuan Le, Jordan Long, and from Cedaredge middle school: Sarah Tullis.
Eighteen projects in the junior division from the Western Slope Regional competition placed well enough to advance to the state finals in May. Delta is well-represented with nine of the 18 coming from Delta Middle School. For more on National History Day go to www.nhd.org.

The Victory Hammer 8-Ball is basically a lower-seat, cheaper specification version of the Hammer muscle bike. It still has the same gutsy motor, but instead of twin front brake discs it has a single caliper and rotor, plain black paint instead of the more upmarket finish usually seen and the suspension is lowered front and rear to drop the seat ...

One of Harley's whackier 'image bikes', in a similar vein to the Harley-Davidson Bad Boy, Street Bob and Night Rod. The Harley-Davidson Night Train is a Europe-only model based on the Softail. It's lean, mean and very black and it goes pretty much as it looks. If you like the style of the Harley-Davidson Night Train you won't be disappointed.

The Harley-Davidson Dyna Wide Glide is the Harley motorcycle for the real Easy Rider/Chopper fans. Basic Hog architecture (big twin mill, twin shock 'Dyna' rear end) gets the full-on 'bro' treatment with raked out, widely-splayed (hence the Wide moniker) forks, 21-inch wire front wheels, pull-back Ape-hangers, 'bobtail' rear fender and forward-mounted 'highway' pegs. As a motorcycle, ponderous. As a style statement, the ...

Another Harley staple aimed at riders with traditional tastes who are looking for a machine that's both comfortable and easy to handle. The Harley-Davidson Dyna Low Rider combines a low seat, mid-mounted foot controls and pull back bars for easy comfort. Like all 2007 Hogs it also benefits from the new 1558 engine, too.

The Yamaha MT-01 has radical, straight-from-show-concept-bike styling allied to monstrous road presence which gives this motorcycle a kick-in-the-teeth visual appeal like no other. Build and detailing is fabulous and the thunderous engine sounds like no other. Shame performance is merely average yet the price stratospheric, then.

54. THE HOSPITAL OF ST. JOHN, WINCHELSEA Footnotes
Probably this was the oldest and most important of the three hospitals at Winchelsea, as certain rents were assigned to it from time immemorial from the issues of Great Yarmouth, John de Romeney, as attorney of the brethren and sisters of the hospital of St. John of Winchelsea, in the time of Edward I receiving 31s. 6d. from this source. (fn. 1) The survey of 1292 mentions the house of St. John in the thirty-fourth 'quarter' considerably nearer the business part of the town than were the other two hospitals. Its lands, granted to the corporation in 1586, amounted to 10 acres. (fn. 2) It was under the control of the mayor, who had to visit it once a year, and had power to remove any objectionable inmate, and, with the consent of the jurats, might admit any poor man or woman who had been 'in good love and fame all their time.' (fn. 3) The Custumal (fn. 4) drawn up in 1557 suggests that this house and that of St. Bartholomew were still in use at that date; but it seems more probable that the section concerning the two hospitals was merely transcribed from an earlier copy, and that they were already dissolved, as they certainly were before 1586.

My recently drilled will apparently have at least 50ppm of Hydrogen Sulfide, based upon the driller's "nose" and on what each adjacent neighbor reports with regard to their wells.
I know that Gary will recommend a chlorine erosion feeder, since that's apparently the core of his business.
But, from my readings, it really looks like a H2O2 feeder is a better alternative, using a proportionally-metered peristaltic injection pump, such as the Stenner.
I'm looking at a packaged system, using the Stenner, followed by a gravel/charcoal filter. I admit I'm a little confused by the need for the charcoal component of the filter, since charcoal doesn't remove H2O2, plus there is a need for an H2O2 residual at the tap for testing purposes. I would have thought a particulate filter to remove oxidized iron and sulphate particles would be all that was needed...
The packaged systems I'm considering are here:
I'm not looking for another pissing contest between Gary and Andy, but just want some objective feedback on my tentative decision, hopefully from industry-insiders who are not trying to sell something.
Regards, and thanks-
The core of my business... hardly. I sold like a hundred softeners for each chlorinator or filter.
From the mid 1990s I sold the erosion inline pellet chlorinator because it was and is the best choice for anyone needing that type of treatment. Much less maintenance, no baby sitting like solution feeders, no varying strength of solution problems, no large retention tank if the mixing tank was used, no dumping the retention tank to get the strength correct after something went wrong like not enough chlorine, on'n on.
That was after selling a fair number of solution feeders back in the late 1980s along with 1 greensand filter that couldn't do the job and then many Pyrolox filters regenerated with chlorinated water out of a salt tank.
BTW, Andy and a bunch of others were banned so no pissing contests here anymore. Good luck with getting info from industry insiders not trying to sell something; but really, think about it, who knows more about a product than someone that sells and/or services it?
Hydrogen peroxide is not a good an oxidizer as chlorine and it costs more than chlorine because you usually need a stronger strength than say 5.25% bleach for a solution feeder.
Ask the solution feeder guys why the carbon filter when peroxide is supposed to be better. Ask yourself if they are just trying to sell something or is is due to the peroxide maybe not getting all the H2S; which is normally the case.
The nose, a female nose is best, is the best test for H2S and it doesn't matter how much you have unless ya wanna brag about it later, you need to remove all of it.

Higuys so this is my first ipad and i am wondering how do i transfer all my photos from my laptop to my ipad.
This is a discussion on How to transfer photos from laptop to Ipad within the iPad 3 Forum forums, part of the Apple iPad Discussions category; Higuys so this is my first ipad and i am wondering how do i transfer all my photos from my laptop to my ipad....
Higuys so this is my first ipad and i am wondering how do i transfer all my photos from my laptop to my ipad.
Hello and welcome to the forum!
My first response is to suggest that you search both this forum and also the web - there is a wealth of information on this topic already available.
But to be brief, there are numerous 'wired' and 'wireless' options for photo transfer between the iPad & a computer - now your choice(s) will likely depend on 'how many' images you want to put on the iPad - this would likely greatly impact on your decision.
Of course, if you sync your device w/ iTunes, the photos on the computer (images and/or folders) that are checked will be sent to the iPad; for myself, I transfer just a handful so I've made a folder simply called 'iPad Photos', transfer the images I want into that folder, and then perform a sync. There are a number of apps (so an App Store search will help) that can handle this process; I use PhotoSync (check HERE). Other 'wireless' options include Dropbox or iCloud to mention a few.
Hopefully, some of these suggestions will get your started and others hopefully will chime in w/ their preferences - good luck!
thanks for the info so if i create a folder and put all the pics i want to sync, and next timem i got to sync pictures will it delete the previous pictures i had on my ipad??
Please take a look at this Forum THREAD - the second post is quite applicable; still not sure 'how many' photos you want to transfer, i.e. if a LOT then multiple folders w/ appropriate titles might be a better route?
Basically, if you put images into a folder on your computer and then check that folder, a sync will put that folder & its contents onto your iPad; if the photos already on your iPad were synced previously, as long as the images and/or folders remained checked, then the photos should remain on your iPad; OTOH, if you uncheck previous images/folders, these will be removed from your iPad. This can be easily 'screwed up' (I've done it!), so be careful - also explore some of the other options suggested, i.e. may be safer and more versatile - good luck!

Hard disk shortage will get worse: Piper Jaffray

Force Factor Pre Workout -- 60 Capsules
I have been using force factor for about 2 months now and I have noticed a small increase in my endurance and seem to be able to lift a little more weight but nowhere near as much as force factor claims. I know most of these claims by manufacturers are bogus but for as much as force factor costs I was expecting better results. I will not buy anymore.

There are a wide variety of treatments, but none of them seem to be particularly valuable in preventing or treating this condition. It is generally agreed that there is no good medical evidence that any creams or ointments will produce any sustained improvement in the appearance of stretch marks. The use of physical modalities such as lasers and ultrasound holds some promise, but time will tell if these treatments are effective. Are there any home remedies for stretch marks?No, there is no evidence that any home remedies can improve the appearance of stretch marks. What is the prognosis of stretch marks?As the striae mature, they become less apparent but they rarely disappear. They do not cause any health problems. Can stretch marks be prevented?Aside from maintaining a normal weight, there is little that can be done to prevent stretch marks from developing.

Victorian Fairy Painting
Critically and commercially popular during the nineteenth century was the intriguing and distinctly British genre of Victorian fairy painting, the subject of an exhibition that came to The Frick Collection. The paintings and works on paper, roughly thirty in number, were selected by Edgar Munhall, Curator of The Frick Collection, from a comprehensive touring exhibition — the first of its type for this subject. The original exhibition was organized by the University of Iowa Museum of Art and the Royal Academy of Arts, London.

This activity is one of a set of trial Early Years Foundation Stage resources. For further information and links to others in the set, please see the introductory page.
Gather together a variety of lengths of string, of at least 3 metres long, each tied into a loop. Chalk and/or a camera would be useful so that you can record the shapes made. A pair of scissors might also come in handy.
Suggest to the children that they find a partner to work with.
Possible contexts
Maths outdoors
'Big space' maths
Use everyday words to describe position
Join with another pair. Take it in turns to make one shape inside/outside/next to/above/under another.
Explore other ways of working together. Tell me what you've done.
Count reliably up to ten everyday objects
Use language such as more or less to compare two numbers
Does your shape have corners/sides? How many? What do you notice?
Can you fit any children in your shape? If so, how many? If you change your shape, will there be more or fewer children?
Getting Started
See what you can make. You could use both hands.
Tell me about what you've made.
Look at theirs - can you make one like it?
I like the shape you've made.
I wonder how you could change it?
I wonder what you could do next?
Use everyday and/or mathematical language such as 'straight', 'corner', 'bigger', 'side', 'longer', 'triangle' ... to describe the shape and size of flat shapes
Let's look at what happens when we hold it on the ground.
What can we see?
Have you seen this sort of shape before? Where?
How is it the same as/different from others?
Would you like to change your shape in some way?
Would you like to make another shape?
Use developing mathematical ideas and methods to solve practical problems
How could you make a shape with a different number of corners?
What's the biggest object you can put your string around? What would happen if we joined two or more pieces of string together?
What next?
Use photographs of the children's string shapes for sorting and matching activities.
Have a go at Mrs Trimmer's String: http://nrich.maths.org/2907
In addition to these mathematical observations you will have opportunities to observe other aspects of the EYFS Themes and Commitments.
You may like to print off one of these sheets as an aide (1, 2, 3), on which you can note down what individual children say and do as they engage with the activity. Please do send us photos, further suggestions and comments.

When our words and our thoughts are surrendered to God, we begin to walk in peace.
This holy instant would I give to You. Be You in charge. For I would follow You, Certain that Your direction gives me peace. And if I need a word to help me, He will give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He also give. And if I need but stillness and a tranquil, open mind, these are the gifts I will receive of Him. He is in charge by my request. And He will hear and answer me, because He speaks for God my Father and His holy Son. Quote of the Day "We all have within us a direct radio line to the voice for God. The problem is, the radio is full of static. In our quiet times we spend with God, the static melts away. We learn to hear the small still voice for God. In Heaven, that is the only voice we hear. That is why we are happy there." — Excerpted from A Return to Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles Published on December 28, 2008

These professionally remanufactured inkjet cartridges will deliver excellent results and provide you with quality and reliability comparable to HP ink. With our '100% Satisfaction Guarantee', our replacements for HP cartridges are an excellent economic and environmentally-sound alternative to OEM HP 02 cartridges, delivering beautifully clear, crisp printouts you can depend on. Save on the HP 02 LD ink cartridge set. These LD remanufactured cartridges are not remanufactured by HP.
Page Yield is an approximation of the number of standard pages that can be printed with one cartridge, usually measured at 5% page coverage. 5% coverage is a standard 8.5 x 11 inch page with a light letterhead, address and three paragraphs of text double spaced. If you print mixed text and graphics or WebPages your page coverage is closer to 15% and therefore the number of pages printed with each cartridge will be less. If you are printing photos your page coverage is close to 100% and the number of printed photos will be much less than the amount the number of pages you would be able to print if you were just printing standard text documents.

I think this was the last 2K college hoops game. It is a shame 2K stopped making them.
With my memory card, I've given the stars their correct names, and tweaked the abilities of the great freshman from that year to more closely reflect their abilities.
I've also tweaked the settings to give it the most realistic feel that I can.
The talent is terrific:
Kevin Love and Russell Westbrook on the same UCLA team, along with Darren Collison and Mbah a Moute(sp?).
Michael Beasley and Bill Walker at Kansas State
OJ Mayo and Taj Gibson at USC
Eric Gordon and DJ White at Indiana
The Lopez brothers at Stanford
Ryan Anderson and Devon Hardin at California
DJ Augustin at Texas
Derrick Rose, Chris Douglas Roberts, and Joey Dorsey at Memphis
Mario Chalmers, Brandon Rush, and Darrell Arthur at Kansas
Ty Lawson, Wayne Ellington, and Tyler Hansbrough at UNC
Chase Budinger and Jared Bayless at Arizona
Blake Griffin at Oklahoma
James Harden at Arizona State
late edit: Stephen Curry at Davidson
Has there been a better collection of talent in college basketball during one season?? It's almost poetic that 2K got out after this one.....

ARM expects tons of iPad-type devices
I'm among the many who will purchase an iPad on April 3. I'm not some huge Apple fanboy, but I did have a hand in a successful iPhone app last year and plan on creating more this year. I'll need an iPad to test it out and show it off.
But I'm also in lust with Microsoft's Courier. It drives me nuts that I know someone here in Seattle who has one and won't let me anywhere near it. Bastard.
Then there are the dozens of other devices about to hit. Make no mistake … Read more

Titleist Brand Ambassador Chesson Hadley captures his 1st career PGA Tour title at the Puerto Rico Open.
Hoggard, a senior writer, covers the PGA Tour and appears on-air in several capacities.
DORAL, Fla.
DORAL, Fla. – Jimmy Walker carded the second-lowest round of the day on Saturday, a 5-under 67, and wasn't surprised at all with his 10-stroke turnaround from an eventful second round.
DORAL, Fla. – Ian Poulter and Hideki Matsuyama will tee off on Saturday at Doral at 11:15 a.m. ET, but the Englishman took some shots at the Japanese player well before that.
DORAL, Fla. – In 2009 at the PGA Tour's annual south Florida siesta, Henrik Stenson stripped to his underwear to hit a shot out of a water hazard.
DORAL, Fla. –Tiger Woods was asked to sum up Friday's play at Doral in a word, and there was no hesitation – "tough."
DORAL, Fla. – It will be another quick turnaround for Tiger Woods at the WGC-Cadillac Championship, which may be a blessing in disguise.
DORAL, Fla. – The PGA Tour fitness trailer at Doral has been a busy spot this week.
DORAL, Fla. – Of all the things Donald Trump buttoned up before this week's WGC-Cadillac Championship at Doral, the weatherman apparently didn't get the memo.

- Marvell (MRVL) has named Michael Rashkin, the president of the chipmaker's charitable fund (according to his LinkedIn profile), its new interim CFO. Rashkin, a 14-year company vet, has also worked as Marvell's VP of tax, and as interim CFO in the 2007-2008 timeframe. (PR)
- The appointment comes a week after Brad Feller, Marvell's interim CFO for 14 months, resigned to "pursue other opportunities."

- Brad Feller, Marvell's (MRVL) interim CFO for the last 14 months and once its corporate controller, is resigning to "pursue other opportunities," effective Dec. 10. No replacement has been named. (PR)
- Feller became interim CFO in Oct. '12, after Clyde Hosein (Marvell's last full-time CFO) resigned for reasons similar to Feller's. Hosein is now the CFO of hosted VoIP services firm RingCentral (recently did an IPO).

- In addition to soundly beating FQ3 estimates, Marvell (MRVL) is guiding for FQ4 revenue of $880M-$920M and EPS of $0.25 (+/- $0.02), above a consensus of $844.3M and $0.23.
- The chipmaker had an FQ3 gross margin of 50.3%, down from FQ2's 53% and FQ1's 54.6%, and below a guidance midpoint of 51%. Marvell expects an FQ4 GM of 50% (+/- 100 bps). Shares fell following the FQ2 report due to gross margin worries (in spite of strong results/guidance).
- $71M was spent on buybacks in FQ3 vs. $83M in FQ2.
- Opex +9% Y/Y, thanks largely to a 12% increase in R&D spend to $296.3M (32% of revenue).

- Qualcomm (QCOM +0.1%) has used its analyst day to take the wraps off several new chips. Among them is the Snapdragon 805, a new flagship baseband/app processor sporting four cores running at up to 2.5GHz. (the Snapdragon 800 tops out at 2.3GHz.), as well as a next-gen GPU said to offer a 40% performance gain.
- Some other features: 25.6GB/s of memory bandwidth, support for the low-power H.265 4K video codec, and integrated motion sensor processing.
- A new 4G baseband modem, the Gobi 9x35, has also been launched. The 9x35 uses a next-gen 20nm manufacturing process (likely from TSMC), and can support (via LTE carrier aggregation) download speeds of up to 300Mbps, twice that of the current Gobi 9x25.
- Meanwhile, Qualcomm's Atheros unit is launching its IPQ processors, which combine a dual-core CPU with a packet-processing engine, for the router, home gateway, and media server markets. Qualcomm claims the IPQ line offers 70% lower power draw than rival products; it represents new competition for Broadcom (BRCM), Marvell (MRVL -0.5%), and Cavium (CAVM +0.1%).
- Qualcomm expects the Snapdragon 805 to be in commercial devices in 1H14, and for the 9x35 to begin sampling in early 2014. The company is counting on the chips to fend off intensifying baseband and app processor competition from Intel, Broadcom, MediaTek (just launched an 8-core CPU), and Nvidia. The company's lead in integrating powerful app processors with 4G modems still gives it an edge when competing for many designs.

- Its biggest positions are still in Apple (AAPL), 21.1% of the portfolio; GM, 11.3%; and Marvell Technology (MRVL), 9.4%.

Pantas is Marvell's CTO, and Sehat's wife, Weili Dai, is its president.
- A Bloomberg source says an LBO is being considered, but adds no deal is imminent.
- The Sutardja brothers own 20% of Marvell, and David Einhorn owns 9%.

- David Einhorn still owns a large stake in Marvell, and there has been speculation Marvell's founding family could try to take the chipmaker private.

- U.S. District Judge Nora Barry Fischer has denied Marvell's (MRVL -2.2%) request for a new trial on a Carnegie Mellon infringement suit that yielded a $1.17B jury verdict last December.
- Fischer also agreed with Carnegie Mellon's assertion that the jury award should be increased on account of Marvell being guilty of willful infringement. A further opinion will be issued later.
- In addition to a bigger award, Carnegie wants Marvell to pay ongoing royalties of $1.50 per infringing hard drive chip; the jury award was based on a royalty of $0.50/chip.
- Marvell asserted in an April 12 filing it shouldn't be liable for chips used outside the U.S., and that the verdict should have been no larger than $164.6M.
- On its FQ2 CC, Marvell disclosed storage-related sales accounted for 52% of its quarterly revenue.

Tuesday, Sep 102013, 2:42 PM
- Analyst Harlan Sur, who's raising his PT to $16 from $14, praises Marvell's (MRVL +1.8%) improved product/R&D execution over the last 18 months. He also expects further op. margin expansion thanks to tight cost controls.
- Sur forecasts FY15 (ends Jan. '15) EPS of $1.05, above a $0.98 consensus.
- Marvell sold off last month following its FQ2 report, as soft gross margin guidance overshadowed an FQ2 beat and strong revenue/EPS guidance. But shares have since recouped most of their losses, and aren't far removed from their 52-week high of $13.51.

Monday, Aug 262013, 10:14 AM
- The suit resulted in Marvell (MRVL -1.8%) getting hit by a $1.17B patent infringement verdict by a Pittsburgh jury last December. Marvell is in the midst of appealing the verdict.
- In requesting a mistrial, Marvell had argued Carnegie Mellon's lawyer had made misleading and prejudicial remarks that "inflamed" the jury. But a U.S. District Judge was unconvinced.
- Shares are adding to the losses they saw on Friday following Marvell's FQ2 report (the result of light gross margin guidance).
- Last week, a Texas jury cleared Marvell of infringement in a case brought by private Lake Cherokee Hard Drive Technologies.

- Marvell (MRVL) expects FQ3 revenue of $850M-$900M and EPS of $0.25 (+/- $0.02), favorable to a consensus of $845.2M and $0.24.
- The chipmaker attributes its FQ2 beat to "better demand and share gains" for storage chips, and "strong double-digit growth" for mobile/wireless chip sales.
- Gross margin was 53%, -160 bps Q/Q and -60 bps Y/Y. GM is expected to fall to 51% (+/- 100 bps) in FQ3.
- $83M was spent to repurchase 7.2M shares. 211M shares (~30% of outstanding shares) have been repurchased over the last 12 months. Thank David Einhorn for that.
- Marvell's strong YTD performance seems to be limiting its AH move. Also, the chipmaker's gross margin guidance might be disappointing some investors.
- CC at 4:45PM ET. FQ2 results, PR

Touringplans says that 3 days before his cruise the crowd level are 8's and 3 days after they are in the 3's.
I've got 5 families all signed up to travel down for Lou's Cruise from Seattle! Can't wait!
We are deciding whether to spend 3 days at the park BEFORE or AFTER the cruise... and a big factor for us is CROWDS.
DO you folks think the CROWDS would be different for before or after? We don't know the east-coast school schedule to tell whether one hits a school break or not.
Touringplans says that 3 days before his cruise the crowd level are 8's and 3 days after they are in the 3's.

Given the option, I would go after the cruise, not just for crowds, but I would still want some Disney magic after the cruise.
I agree, go after. You'll want to check out things you hear about before your next trip.

Yeah, he's been through a lot, and persevered. Whoever was calling him a thug is either a troll or an idiot.
Or both.
Ok we got the #2 pick and there's a good chance that we draft Thomas Robinson. For those that don't know his story you really need to watch this video.
This is the kind of guy that Charlotte will fall in love with.
Yeah, he's been through a lot, and persevered. Whoever was calling him a thug is either a troll or an idiot.
Or both.
In Cho I Trust
What a story. I want him here. He has a great post game, a mid range game, solid defense, and most importantly, heart. This guy's got a reason to wake up in the morning and try to become the best power forward of all time. I want this guy in Charlotte. This is the kind of story that wakes a fanbase up and gives people a reason to pull for the Bobcats.
If he comes here and succeeds, the Bobcats could become one of the most beloved franchises in the country because of that story.
I love this guy. My dad is a big Kansas fan so i've watched and known his story for a while now....he's a great player. Someone that's inspired the way he is to be great will not fail. His skill level and determination are fantastic. Why would you NOT want him on this team?
He has more potential than Anthony Davis. Whoever thinks Davis is going to be able to step in and be a dominant player against the likes of Dwight Howard, Bynum, Amare, Bosh and even Duncan is an idiot. Dude should have stayed in school. Robinson stayed for three seasons and is more physically developed and polished.
Very deserving of its own thread JGib and it shows this kid's desire goes far beyond the typical draft pick that wants to play in the NBA. It's almost like he's on his own island and won't stop doing whatever it takes to be the best..... but for himself and his family, not for endorsements and poppin' bottles in South Beach. Like he said in that HoopsWorld interview, Robinson doesn't want to be the #1 pick, he wants to be the best pick. He has that warrior mentality, maturity and drive that is the silver lining in tragedies. I feel for him and not too many people would be able to overcome that type of adversity. He IS what Charlotte needs on this team and I will be disappointed if we don't select him.
I can relate to his story. He has a strength, courage and toughness this team needs.
He is exactly the type of play this teams needs. Get Tyrus the hell outta here!
