Socio-Economic Data and ScenariosWelcome to the Socio-economic section of the Data Distribution Centre (DDC) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). These pages of the DDC provide access to baseline and scenario data related to population, economic development, technology and natural resources for use in climate impact assessments. This information, along with environmental data and scenarios also held by the DDC, is important for characterizing the vulnerability and adaptive capacity of social and economic systems in relation to climate change in different regions. For many exposed systems, the impacts of climate change could be strongly moderated by future socio-economic and technological developments, so these need to be taken into account in any assessment. Why do we need socio-economic scenarios? The main purposes of socio-economic scenarios in the assessment of climate impacts, adaptation and vulnerability are:
Though greater emphasis in these guidelines is placed on the second objective, the DDC socio-economic pages provide information supporting both, recognising that the scenarios underpinning impact and adaptation studies should also be consistent with those assumed for emissions and hence for climate and for other environmental scenarios. Many key parameters such as population and economic growth are common to both types of exercise. The major underlying cause of rapid changes in atmospheric composition is human economic activity, in particular emissions of greenhouse gases and aerosols, and changing land cover and land use. Socio-economic scenarios that project the major driving factors of change are important for several reasons:
The IPCC Data Distribution Centre holds socio-economic information describing the present-day situation and information relating to two sets of emissions scenarios: the IS92 scenarios, prepared for the IPCC Second Assessment Report, and the SRES scenarios (Special Report on Emissions Scenarios - Nakicenovic et al., 2000) prepared for the Third Assessment Report. These have a projection period out to 2100 (see below). Socio-economic baseline statistics on the DDC The IPCC has published a set of baseline statistics for 195 countries that are representative of the early to mid 1990s. The data were collated from a variety of sources, such as the World Bank, UNEP and FAO, and they comprise a range of factors organised into seven categories (IPCC, 1998):
These tabulated data are also available from the Data Distribution Centre. Clearly these are only selected, summary data and individual impact studies are likely to require information on other factors or at a higher spatial resolution. The original sources of the IPCC dataset may be able to provide additional country-level information. Otherwise, national or regional sources of data will need to be accessed. Current holdings are:

Remember this project? Here's the update! Over the past beautiful weekend, seven classmates and I spent the two full days helping "Orion Center for YouthCare" re-organize its storage room, food shelves, and receiving area. We all rolled up the sleeves, worked very hard and enjoyed the sweat. Sometimes we separated our tasks to fit each person's strengths. For example, I handled shelves building with power tools. Other people handled sorting and labeling thousands of clothes. But sometimes we had everybody work on the same task together such as moving all the organized bins back to the storage. When my teammates realized I still showed up even though I was sick, they all stepped up and took over some of my duties. This was a real team because we were helping each other. We showed respect and consideration.
After we completed the project, the center staff was amazed about the new functional storage area. They said we had made their life so much easier. They felt that we provided them a system that allowed them to get and store things effectively and efficiently for their outreach program. This is exactly the learning objectives for OPER 576 Project Management class. I am happy I took this class because it taught me the critical successful functions of project management, but more importantly, this class provided us the opportunity to apply what we learned in class and help those organizations that serve some of the most needy in our community. As we know, every successful project requires commitment from the project manager and each team member. The art and science in project management have to be blended well in order to move the whole project into a right direction. In summary, this project was on budget, on time and on scope.

text: PM's Ultimate Guide to Social Media Sanity First Facebook, then Twitter, then Tumblr, FourSquare and Google Plus. As the networks proliferate, keeping up our digital identities takes more and more time, and there's always another network to join. How do you maintain a digital life without going bonkers or completely neglecting your real life? We spoke to social media professionals, gurus and even addicts to help pull together a guide to streamlining your digital presence. By Matthew Ismael Ruiz Email Comments 0 Share Back 6 of 7 Next Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery Return to Gallery David Vignoni/Fred Stutzman Back Next View Thumbnails Save Me From Myself Know your priorities. If you're using social networking for your business, then there's one fundamental rule to remind yourself of, Daniels says: "The time we spend engaged in any of these services absolutely has to be tied to business objectives. If you're just engaged for the sake of engagement, or you're just conversing with people for the sake of just having a conversation, then it's a waste of time." But if willpower and self-discipline aren't your strong suits, never fear: There's a tool for that. On the extreme end, there are apps like Freedom. It allows you to program blocks of time (up to 8 hours) during which it will block your Internet access, quieting the constant stream of tweets and updates. While it can be wildly impractical for some, people who need to use their computers for prolonged periods with intense focus can benefit from an application like Freedom. For those of us who need to be online but cut our social media time, there are tools like keepmeout, which uses bookmarks to track your visitation to certain sites, warning you when you reach a predetermined frequency. But you still need at least modicum of self-control: such tools can be easily worked around by using another browser, or by directly entering the URL in the address bar. For those comfortable with command-line execution but uncomfortable with their own paltry willpower, there are options too: For example, freelance designer/code monkey Sean Enright wrote a simple script that can be entered into Mac OS X's terminal to redirect traffic headed to a particular site back to your own computereffectively blocking access to certain domains on a Mac.

The Ohio Machine have gotten an LXM infusion. Kyle Harrison was picked first by the Machine in the special Major League Lacrosse waiver wire process opened to include LXM Pro Tour players after the deal announced Feb. 13 between MLL and Adrenaline that allowed LXM players to play MLL and vice versa.
Tag Archives | LXM PRO
Professional Lacrosse & The Week Of Opportunity
No more of this either or mess, as the LXM and MLL have finally come together to unify professional field lacrosse. Time to let a player play; if you can cut it, you can take your services to both pro leagues, just the way it should be. Rosie drops his thoughts on the new situation.
Tweet of the Week: K18′s BEAST Split Dodge
Of course the big news last week was that Adrenaline and LXM PRO had reached an agreement with Major League Lacrosse. There was a wide range of reactions to this, though the majority of people seem excited about the potential this deal has for impacting the growth of the game. Greg "Beast" Gurenlian, one of MLL's best face-off men, had this hilarious comment about the MLL and LXM deal, and the possibility of Kyle Harrison's return to the MLL.

Looking Back, Looking Ahead: Peter Baum and the Next NCAA to LXM Star
With the 2013-2014 LXM PRO season having wrapped up a few weeks ago with a final stop in Los Angeles, the 2014 NCAA lacrosse season now underway, STX becoming an official Major League Lacrosse partner, and now Adrenaline and LXM PRO joining forces with the MLL, I can't help but wonder who the next LXM star will be.
Traditional Thursday: Tom Garvey JHU & MAV
Tom Garvey gave me an older STX Proton+ from his days at Johns Hopkins and he wanted a pocket thrown in there so he could either use the stick while coaching or put it on display. I decided to up the ante a little bit and throw in a second head, which I dyed to resemble the Hopkins head in style, to commemorate his time playing for Maverik United in the LXM PRO.
Why ADRLN? Players & Coaches on Adrenaline Tournaments
A few weekends back, I spent the entire day outside of Los Angeles for the final LXM PRO event of the 2013-2014 season. With the event also came the final Adrenaline tournament of the year. But what is it that keeps bringing teams back to ADRLN tournaments? Here's what players and coaches have to say.
WINNER ANNOUCED – ADRLN Player Spotlight & Contest: Erik Krum
During halftime of the LXM PRO 858 event in San Diego, I caught a glimpse of a pretty spectacular commercial. ADRLN released their first player spotlight video on Maverik United's leading goal scorer. Take a deeper look in to the world of Erik Krum.
LXM PRO 805 Recap & Helmet Contest Winner Announced!
Well the feeling is bittersweet, the 2013-14 LXM PRO season is now officially behind us. Now it's time for the boys to go home and train for the next season, and probably do a little coaching in between. We are sure a ton of you tuned in to this weekend's action in Los Angeles with hopes of winning a brand new LXM PRO replica helmet from LaxAllStar's parter Cascade!
Lacrosse Announcer Interview: Chris Marshall
We sat down with Chris Marshall to learn more about the life of a well-known lacrosse broadcaster. Chris has been covering games for The Lacrosse Network and is building a reputation as the West Coast's answer to Quint Kessenich. Check out our back-and-forth conversation with Chris Marshall below.
Who's Your LXM PRO Season MVP?
Tomorrow's LXM PRO Los Angeles event marks the final game of the season for the LXM PRO. In Connor's preview of the game, he takes a look at who the league scoring champ might be when all is said and done. One of our LAS Community members was thinking along the same lines, wondering who you'd pick for the LXM PRO season MVP.
Tweet of the Week: Sam Bradman Low to High
LXM PRO 858 in San Diego was a thriller last weekend, with Team STX edging out a 16-15 win over Maverik United on a Max Ritz goal with two seconds left. Earlier in the game, Sam Bradman put Team STX on his back with four first half goals, including what was just about the most beautiful low release shot I have ever seen. It was an on the run riser, and Kyle Harrison definitely appreciated the shot as much as I did.
LXM PRO Thriller in San Diego
LXM PRO 858 is an event that you MUST go back and watch. The match was by far one of the most entertaining lacrosse games I've seen as of late, let alone an LXM PRO game. Even though Maverik United is out of contention, the team played hard and barely fell to Team STX with little to no time left.

Friday, 25 Jan 2013 12:24 AM
Obama's agenda - shaping up as the most ambitious gun-control push in decades - included executive and legislative action, with the latter sure to face an uphill battle in Congress where appetite for reinstating an assault weapons ban is low.
Obama and Vice President Joe Biden, who led a task force that made recommendations on the issue, presented the measures at a White House event attended by children from around the country who wrote letters to the president about gun violence and school safety.
Obama, who has called the Dec. 14 massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, the worst day of his presidency, said on Monday he would study the panel's ideas and move forward "vigorously" on those that he endorsed, including some actions he could take without congressional approval. The announcement sets up a direct confrontation with the powerful National Rifle Association gun lobby, which is launching an advertising campaign against gun control and deploying its representatives in force on Capitol Hill.
The NRA, which says it has about 4 million members, took aim at Obama in a stinging TV ad, accusing him of being "just another elitist hypocrite" for accepting Secret Service protection for his two daughters but turning down the lobby group's proposal to put armed guards in all schools.
A White House official said Obama had not endorsed all of the ideas put forward by Biden's team but declined to lay out specifics on what would be announced.
"The president has made clear that he intends to take a comprehensive approach," White House spokesman Jay Carney said on Tuesday.
The president will ask Congress for a renewed prohibition on assault weapons sales that expired in 2004, a measure to ban high-capacity ammunition clips and the closing of loopholes in the background check system, Carney said.
The announcement, which comes the day after New York State lawmakers approved one of the toughest gun control bills in the United States and Governor Andrew Cuomo signed it into law, is set for 11:55 a.m. EST.
But gun restrictions are a divisive issue in the United States, which constitutionally protects a citizen's right to bear arms.
Biden delivered his recommendations to Obama after a series of meetings with representatives from the weapons and entertainment industries. The president requested the recommendations after the Newtown shootings, which were carried out by a 20-year-old man who later killed himself.
The proposals deal with mental health and address violence portrayed in video games.
Obama had signaled his plan would include elements that did not require congressional approval. The president could take action to ban certain gun imports and bolster oversight of gun dealers.
The leaked proposals already drew the ire of the NRA, an influential lobbying group that is traditionally associated with Republicans. The NRA proposed having armed officials in schools throughout the country and has said the media and violent video games shared blame for the Newtown massacre, the second-deadliest school shooting in U.S. history.
"There is common ground" with the White House, NRA President David Keene said on the PBS Newshour on Tuesday. "It is not on banning rifles that we don't think will make any difference and it is not on setting up a national gun registry."
"We have for 20 years been asking that those people who have been adjudicated to be mentally, potentially violent be put on the list of people who are not allowed to buy firearms."
The NRA announced this week that it would produce a nightly one-hour cable talk show called "Cam & Company," which will be hosted by Cam Edwards, a gun advocate. The NRA also produces "Guns and Gold," in which values are set on old guns, and "3 Gun Nation," a shooting competition program.
Greg Valliere of the Potomac Research Group, a private firm that tracks Washington for institutional investors, wrote to clients on Wednesday: "Sweeping gun control legislation has no chance - none - of enactment; it won't even be considered by the House, and the Senate is lukewarm."
"Modest proposals, perhaps dealing with mental health and school safety, might have a chance," he wrote.

Quartz Reef "Methode Traditionelle" Sparkling Wine Brut Central Otago
Review Date: 12-31-2010
Carefully blended from 76% Pinot Noir and 24% Chardonnay from the estate vineyard in Bendigo, this sparking wine first captivates the eye with its pale yellow highlights, and then flamboyantly seduces the palate with tightly-polished bubbles entranced by lively citrus fruits, crisp brioche and luscious cream. An alluring, wonderfully-harmonious champenoise sparkler for an amazing price!
Top Value!
Price: $21.99
Dudognon Reserve Cognac 750ml
Review Date: 11-30-2010
A voter santé! Raymond Dudognon first distilled his own cognac in 1946, following the venerable traditions laid down by his great grandfather in 1776. The heart of the Charente region, located about 100 miles northeast of Bordeaux, is called Grande Champagne, and consists of deep chalk-rich soils, perfect for creating fragrant, long-lived cognacs. Made from 100% natural Ugni Blanc, this singular spirit is blended and distilled in the traditional alambic Charentais pot and eventually aged in 350 liter barrels. The Dudognon homage to tradition stresses minimal intervention, using only pure water as an additive to create a stunning cognac that charms and caresses the palate, displaying a weightlessness and delicacy of fruit found less commonly in cognacs at twice the price. Highly recommended!
Price: $47.99
Deligeroy Cremant de Loire Brut
Review Date: 10-31-2010
A customer came in recently and asked for an elegant, delicate sparkling wine for a wedding celebration. Champagne was beyond his budget, so without hesitation I smiled and recommended this Cremant de Loire, arguably the greatest sparkling wine value in the world. Created with precise restrictions on everything from mandatory hand-harvesting of relatively older vines to aging regimens (a minimum of 12 months) to atmospheres of pressure (3.5 as opposed to 6 for Champagne), the Deligeroy is a finely-beaded beauty, discreetly aromatic, lacy and effervescent. The careful assemblage of Chenin Blanc, Chardonnay and Cabernet Franc adds aromatic complexity, giving this wine an added degree of sophistication. Highly recommended!
Top Value!
Price: $11.99
Zubrowka Bison Grass Polish Vodka 750ml
Review Date: 11-9-2009
I enjoyed the London reminiscences by my colleague Susan Thornett about this wonderful vodka, and I too confess a special relationship with Zubrowka going back several decades, when I was first offered a bracing shot of this harmonic-bisonic elixir by a friendly Polish waiter in then East Berlin who, sadly trapped behind the Iron Curtain some years before Solidarnösc, desperately wanted to improve his English skills. Maybe it was the effects of the vodka, but before the evening ended I promised to "secure" him a dictionary from the West even though it was strictly against the policy of the rather coercive East German authorities at the time. Well, anyway, I succeeded, and thanks in part to Zubrowka, the Wall finally came down and democracy was finally restored to freedom-loving East Berliners. And today I'm really glad we can offer this rare vodka to our astute customers, as its singularly subtle and unique flavors of yellow straw, camomile tea and dried coconut promises to both stimulate conversation, energize the appetite and yes, liberate the spirit! Na zdrowie! (To health!)
Price: $26.99
Sorelle Bronca Prosecco DOCG
Review Date: 7-11-2009
This delightful Prosecco is a strong contender for best in class among its growing legions of fans, delivering dependably delicious flavors of sliced apples, citrus blossoms and almonds in a pure and sparkling persona. Showcasing both freshness and mineral vibrancy, it should complement most summer fare from salads to appetizers, and would be the perfect match for a basket of lightly-fried calamari.
Price: $17.99

Admirals Fall in a Shootout to the Aeros
Nov 27, 2010
Houston's Casey Wellman and Jared Spurgeon scored in the shootout to lift the Houston Aeros to a 2-1 shootout win over the Milwaukee Admirals Saturday at the Toyota Center.
Milwaukee's lone goal in the shootout was scored by Chris Mueller. Spurgeon, the sixth shooter, recorded the winning tally.
The Aeros got on the board with a controversial goal at 5:12 of the third. Spurgeon's backhander from the left circle went over goalie Mark Dekanich's right shoulder but appeared to hit the crossbar. After conversing with the goal judge, referee Terry Koharski awarded the goal to the Aeros defenseman.
Milwaukee tied the game with 6:45 to play. Aaron Johnson knocked down an Aeros clearing attempt at the blue line, skated to the right circle and slid a backhander between the legs of goalie Anton Khudobin.
Dekanich stopped 26 of 27 shots in the shootout loss.
The Admirals dropped to 4-3-0-2 on the ten-game road trip, guaranteeing the club at least a .500 record on the season-long venture away from the Bradley Center.
Milwaukee completes its ten-game road trip Sunday at San Antonio. The Ads return to the Bradley Center Wednesday, December 1st at 7:00 pm against the Manitoba Moose. Fans can purchase tickets by calling Ticketmaster at or logging on to milwaukeeadmirals.com. Season tickets for the 10-11 campaign are still on sale, starting at just $145.

Published: Nov. 11, 2010
Updated: Oct. 27, 2011
An ankle sprain is an injury to the ligament of the ankle joint. Sprained ankles are one of the most common orthopaedic injuries.
An ankle sprain is a common sports injury, but can also happen during everyday activities like walking or climbing stairs.
Ankle ligaments are injured when an excessive stretching force is applied to them. This commonly happens when the foot is turned inward or inverted.
This can happen by awkwardly planting your foot while walking, stepping down, or running. This can also occur by stepping on an uneven surface or stepping in a hole.
A sprained ankle is characterized by several symptoms including:
A physical examination by your doctor will properly diagnose the injury and the severity of the ankle sprain. The exam will focus on pain and range of motion, ensuring that there is no serious injury to the ankle, including fracture.
Nerves and arteries to the foot should be checked for injury, and the Achilles tendon should be checked for possible rupture. X-ray imaging will confirm if there is fracture.
Ankle sprains typically heal on their own without complications and most people are able to make a complete recovery. Caring for your injury should focus on reducing pain and aiding healing.
Common ankle sprain treatments include:
For severe ankle sprains, particularly, high ankle sprains, more aggressive treatments may be required. Your doctor will speak with you about these treatment options if that is the case.
Duke Orthopaedics treats common and severe ankle sprains at locations throughout North Carolina, including Raleigh, Durham, Cary, and Chapel Hill.
Watch an educational video about ankle sprain treatments.

You don't pay for tutoring unless you find a good fit!
I've been fingerprinted and TB tested and can provide this information upon request.I have taught preschool, K-12, and ESL(English as Second Language)in adult education over the past 22 years. I've kept in touch with many of my students. One of my first students in preschool has graduated high school and begun college. I love teaching and tutoring so much that I can't think of anything else I'd much rather be doing. I've shared this with many of my former students year after year. "If you find a job you love, you'll never work a day in your life." -Confucious- This is exactly how I feel about what I do. In the current state of education, many teachers are overwhelmed by their overcrowded classrooms due to continued employee cuts to balance the state's budget. If you feel your child is not getting the attention he/she is due then you have either sat inside the classroom, or have listened to your own frustrated child.I am available to assist you and your child in getting the attention that is essential to feel confident and empowered by the learning he/she deserves. I am extremely patient, professional, and have witnessed growth and progress firsthand throughout my years. I work with all ages. Thank you for taking the time to invest in your education.

I have taken 8 years of Spanish classes, not including private tutoring and workshops. I received an Emergency Bilingual Teaching Credential along with my first job due to my skills. Later I taught Spanish to both children and adults. Now I can say I speak Spanish, or 'Hablo espanol!'
I've directed and taught both the GED Preparation classes and the high school subjects classes from 1996 to 2006 through Ranch Santiago Community College District's Continuing Adult Education Program. We've partnered with local Orange County High School Districts to achieve the best possible outcome for the students. I continue to assist adults in obtaining their diploma in order to meet employment requirements and/or to move to a higher position/pay bracket. I discover where the student is struggling...

I have worked with K-6 grades since 1990. I have a current California Clear Multiple Subjects Credential. I have been an aide, a substitute teacher, a part-time teacher, and a contracted full-time teacher in the area of K-6 grades.
I have taken several classes on the basics of general computer literacy. I have taken these classes before and while teaching my own students the basic skills necessary to feel comfortable using the computer and educational programs, search engines, etc. New computer information and advances are constantly changing. It's necessary to keep on top of the latest computer trend and programs no matter what our age.
I have taught a high school study skills class. It is one of the most important classes to begin the year with. It's the basis to be successful in all of the other classes. I've also been a student of study skills classes in both high school and college. These classes have helped me get through the other classes more successfully and with much more ease and confidence.
I attended Catholic elementary and high schools. I have taken quite a few years of religion classes as a student. I've also been a religious education teacher and taught K-6th grade communion and 9th grade confirmation classes. I have also been a lector for several years. I am registered with the Diocese of Orange and have a Safe Environment Training Certificate.
I have taught ELD(English Language Development) in the K-6 classes since 1988. I obtained my first job because of my bilingual/ biliterate abilities and experiences in the early 1990's. The school district hired me on an 'Emergency Bilingual Teaching Credential' my first year of teaching. Soon thereafter I earned my California Preliminary Teaching Credential.I have taught ESL(English as a Second Language) to adults since 2001 and participated in several workshops throughout this time...
I have had over 20 years of experience in the classroom. There have been students in my classroom who have had physical disabilities, ADD, ADHD, Autism, Bipolar, and other challenges. Some showed the outward signs of their challenges, others blended in. Some were diagnosed, others were not but showed signs. Some were on medications, others were not. I have used special accommodations such as sitting closer to the front of the classroom, extra time on tests, larger print tests, colored... Read More
I took and passed the NTE(National Teacher's Exam) and the CBEST(California Basic Essential Skills Test). I've also taught Art and Art History Classes.I remember when I took Art History in college. It was quite easy to appreciate the different types of art when you learn about all the meaning and symbolism within them. We took field trips to the LACM(Los Angeles County Museum of Art). It was much more interesting to see the actual art in 3D that we had been studying out of a book.... Read More
The CBEST(the California Basic Essential Skills Test) is a test with e few different parts that I had to pass in order to substitute teach. I remember that I studied for CBEST preparation class before to be better prepared. The CBEST was the longest test I'd ever taken.Almost every school district that I've wanted to substitute teach at required proof of passage of this test.
Social Studies is one of the many subjects that is taught in an elementary classroom in California. It is one of the core general education subjects that is taught. Before obtaining a Multiple Subject Preliminary or Clear Credential, teachers must take and pass the NTE or National Teacher's Exam first. There's also the CBEST or the California Basic Essentials Skills Test that must be passed. Both test your knowledge of social studies. I have passed both of these exams.

The Foreign Office is investigating reports that three people have been found shot dead in a British-registered car in the French Alps.
The bodies were discovered in a BMW in a car park near a forest in Haute-Savoie on Wednesday afternoon. French authorities said that two other people, including a young girl, had also died.
The girl was found alive, suffering from bullet wounds, on a forest road near the village of Chevaline but later died in hospital, according to French reports.
The body of a cyclist, also thought to have been shot dead, was lying nearby. All of the bodies had been found by another cyclist. The identity of those involved is not yet known.
A Foreign Office spokesman: "We are aware of the reports of the shooting and we are looking into these urgently."

In Plain Sight: Marshal Marshall?

I watch all the USA original series, so if they aired the pilot in November they did it pretty covertly. I don't think it has run yet.

I agree about the great chemistry between Mary and Marshal Marshall. And aren't they pulling the USA original series stunt casting of using an 80s star as the wisecracking parent, like with Sharon Gless on Burn Notice and Corbin Bernson on Psych?

In Plain Sight is a worthy successor to last summers USA Network hit Burn Notice. Both are witty and suspenseful and benefit from vividly authentic locationshere, underused Albuquerqueacknowledging its natural beauty and its Native American and Latino populations
My excitement level just shot up quite a bit! I'm a huge fan of both Burn Notice and Psych, so I think this will fit in perfectly.

What's going on with this show? I saw a promo recently that seems to be a completely different premise from the "bring porno-falling in pool-moaning into the phone" quirky-law-inforcement promo they've been running for the last couple of months. The new promo is serious "witness protection--we relocate people by hiding them in plain sight". Is this just a method of trying to broaden the appeal, or have they decided to retool before the first episode is even aired?
Yeah, the retooled commercials bothered me. It was thought they got scared she was "too tough" for a woman and decided to soften up her image. Has it ever occurred to them there's an audience for a no-apologies chick butt-kicker?
And am I the only one who felt a twinge of nostalgia for the late, great The Marshal with Jeff Fahey? That seemed to be in a similar smart and funny vein. I'll pick that up on DVD if they ever release it. I mean if Stingray has been released...

Mary: Just so you know, I smacked an Indian in the Johnson with a bar of soap today.
Marshall: Haven't we done enough to those people?
Mary: I'm not proud of it.
Now if I can find a way to weave that one into conversation, my life will be full.
Posted Jun 1, 2008 @ 10:20 PM
Very Quoteable, and lots of fun. Just what I need in the summer.
At first, I thought Mary really killed Kyle when she kicked the chair.

Here's hoping that all of you find a similar cache of good memories from 2011, and that you make even more moments to look back on with fondness in 2012.

Linux Foundation Supports Japan with Open Source Development
The Linux Foundation has concluded an agreement to support Japanese developers with Linux and Open Source in future.
The new partnership between the Linux Foundation (LF) and the Information-Technology Promotion Agency (IPA) project backed by the Japanese government will officially kick off October 30. Partners will be revealing tangible collaboration plans at the IPA Forum in Meiji Kinen-kan in Tokyo, Japan.
The Linux Foundation states that it will be looking to increase the number of Japanese programmers working on Linux and Open Source development through the project. Cooperation will focus on technological development, standardization and legal issues
The announcement comes at a time where the interest in Free and Open Source Software in Japan is bigger than ever. Several examples clearly demonstrate that more and more electronics manufacturers are starting to use Linux for their devices, says the LF in its announcement. Just recently, the Tokyo stock exchange decided to introduce a Linux-based system as its next generation enterprise application. In July of this year, the Japanese government announced that it will be looking to adopt open standards in all fields. The government has dedicated a budget of 1.5 trillion yens (about US$ 10.4 billion) for this purpose. And there are plans to develop a Linux-based administrative system.
"Japanese companies and developers have been strong supporters of the LF since Day One. We're determined to do more to support Linux and open source developers in Japan." says Linux Foundation Director Jim Zemlin. "This agreement is part of the LF's aggressive regional promotion activities and an important way for the open source community to continue to expand."
Just recently market researchers Gartner predicted that Open Source software would account for 60 percent of core applications in business and government in the Asian-Pacific region by 2010, compared to less than 15 percent in 2004.

Save money by making your own spa treatments at home. Here are some recipes and tips from Michelle Naylor, volunteer for the American Cancer Society's Look Good…Feel Better program:
Avocado Facial mask
Avocados make a moisturizing mask that's nourishing for dry or sun-exposed skin.
Salt Glow
Salt scrubs are among my favorite home spa treatments. This one leaves your skin soft and glowing.
Gentle Oatmeal Mask
This is a good face mask for oily skin. The recipe makes enough for one treatment and should be applied as soon as it's mixed.
Eye Brighteners
Source: Country Woman April/May 2010
These two easy spa treatments are made entirely from pantry staples, cost just pennies, and will leave your skin silky-soft. Enjoy the scrub in the shower or fill the tub for the oatmeal mix. Either way, you'll soak up some much-needed "me time."
Almond Exfoliating Body Scrub
Stir 1/4 cup coarse sea salt and 1/4 cup baby oil until the oil is thoroughly incorporated. Add 1/2 tsp. almond or vanilla extract or lightly scented perfume oil; stir until combined.
Cinnamon Oatmeal Milk Bath
Place 1 cup powdered milk, 1/2 cup baking soda, 1/2 cup finely ground oatmeal, 2 tsp. cornstarch, 1 tsp. cream of tartar and 1 tsp. cinnamon in a food processor and process to combine. Put in a clean, tightly covered, moisture-proof container. It will keep indefinitely.
To Use: Add about 1/2 cup of the Cinnamon Oatmeal Milk Bath to a full tub of warm water, and enjoy the soak.

K-State Slate: Sam Harvill is missing, other football rumors and articles, basketball's coming home, new coaches in baseball and equestrian, Erik Kynard appears on the Tonight Show.
It's Friday at the Slate. Today, Cliff Rovelto is among the elite track and field coaches in the country, Erik Kynard looks to win a gold medal, Texas Tech may cancel game with Texas State rather than play on LHN, college football playoff will still provide plenty to be mad about, and the Sandusky trial goes to the jury.
The Kansas State Wildcats made an impact at what longtime track and field coach Cliff Rovelto called the best NCAA Championship meet he ever has seen. The NCAA Indoor Track and Field Championships saw the Wildcat men finish in a tie for 18th and the women 45th. The weekend was highlighted by Mantas Silkauskas in the heptathlon and Erik Kynard in the high jump.
The awards for Kansas State sophomore high jumper Erik Kynard continue to come in this season. After the school record holder was added to the Bowerman watch list last week, he was named the Midwest Region Men's Field Athlete of the Year by the USTFCCCA. Kynard has won all five competitions he has jumped in this season and broke the school record by leaping 7-07.75 to win the Tyson Invitational in mid-February. The jump not only was a K-State record, but it also was the third-highest jump in collegiate history.

A middle-aged woman had a heart attack and was taken to the hospital. While on the operating table she had a near-death experience.
Seeing God, she asked if this was it. God said, "No, you have another 43 years, 2 months, and 8 days to live." Upon recovery, the woman decided to stay in the hospital and have a facelift, liposuction, breast augmentation, tummy tuck, etc. She even had someone come in and change her hair color. Since she had so much more time to live, she figured she might as well make the most of it. She got out of the hospital after the last operation, and while crossing the street was killed by an ambulance speeding to the hospital. Arriving in front of God, she demanded, "I thought you said I had another 40 years?" God replied, "I didn't recognize you."
