Even a mild traumatic brain injury is still a traumatic brain injury
Football and military combat seem worlds apart in most ways, but they share a few commonalities. One is the devotion of players and soldiers to their teams -- in play or in battle, a soldier doesn't want to let his team down.
Another link between these realms is a risk of significant, long-term brain damage from repeated mild brain injuries -- otherwise known as concussions.
As a medical officer for the U.S. Air Force and as a clinician here at Duke, neurosurgeon Gerald Grant, MD, has seen injuries from both fields, and although it's unusual for neurosurgeons to focus on nonsurgical brain injuries, Grant and his colleagues at Duke are determined to find a better way to detect and treat them.
"When a severe traumatic brain injury occurs in a patient, there are well-established treatment guidelines we follow to help manage these injuries," says Grant.
"But right now, out of 100 grade-1 concussions, we can't tell who's at risk for significant injury if they return to the game. And we don't want to keep healthy players out of the game if we don't have to."
For those who are at risk, though, the consequences can be grave. "Those are the kids who get hit again and get significantly worse, or may even die. And you see one of those . . . you just never want to see that again."
Most concussions -- barring previous concussions -- get better with time, usually within seven to 10 days. So it's not worth it to be too aggressive with treatment, says Grant -- since with physical, mental, and emotional rest, most patients will get back to normal function.
The trick is to determine, sometimes in the heat of play, when a mild concussion has occurred. Many of these injuries don't have clinically detectable symptoms -- at least not right away -- and even a brain scan would be normal. But the injuries may still be there.
Grant and Duke neurologist Danny Laskowitz, MD, are developing a blood test that could detect biomarkers that signal the presence or absence of a brain injury. "It's still in the investigational stage," Grant says. "There's still a lot to understand for this test, because it needs to be very sensitive so that we do not miss any injuries. It also might not be just one blood marker we're looking at; it might be a panel of five."
Current concussion testing for soldiers and athletes begins with the physical assessment on the field. Protocols have shifted since the days of sending players who are symptom-free back into the game, says Grant.
In cases where the injured player shows no obvious symptoms, the current rules for re-engagement require that player to try exercise -- off the field -- to see if increases in heart rate and general exertion unmask symptoms. There are also neurocognitive tests available that can be given on the sidelines. These tests can be very useful, especially if baseline testing is available.
"There's a lot of pressure on coaches to keep athletes in play," says Grant. "And the players themselves often underreport symptoms. Combat soldiers are no different and often will downplay their symptoms since they don't want to leave their comrades. I believe that we can really make a difference by finding better tools to detect these injuries -- to be proactive and keep these kids out of play until it's safe."

A wild five days for Sequim's boys and girls golfers ended nearly perfectly at the Duke Streeter Invite in Port Angeles on Friday, with
Sequim's girls taking first place and the Wolves' boys finishing in second by a single stroke.
Earlier in the week, Sequim's boys topped a strong field for the title at the Port Ludlow Invite.
Both Sequim teams posted big scores in beating league foe North Mason on April 29.
Additionally, Sequim senior Zoei Zbaraschuk has signed to play at Division II Sonoma State University in California next fall with a golfing scholarship.
The boys' week started strong at the Port Ludlow Invitational, where eight, five-player teams played a Stableford points match in 20 mph winds on a hilly course.
Steve Loerlein led the squad with a round of 80 for 28 Stableford points, followed closely by Ryan O'Mera (84, 24 points), Casey Torres (89, 19), Mallory Maloney (90, 18) and Jake Dethlefsen (94, 14).
Sequim's 103 team points outpaced runner-up Steilacoom at 96 points. Olympic was third with 90 points and Chimacum, boasting medalist Eric Nelson (72, 36 points) was fourth. Port Angeles was fifth.

"Our boys did a great job considering the weather and the wet Port Ludlow course," said Sequim coach Vic Quinet.
Three days later, Sequim knocked off North Mason 89-41, led once again by Loerlein. The senior shot a 79 for 28 Stableford points.
"(Steve) has really been coming along," Quinet said. "He's found consistency (and is) a great candidate for most improved player."
O'Mera ably backed his teammate with a round of 82 for 25 points.
Sequim's boys capped the week with a second-place finish at Duke Streeter, finishing one shot behind tourney champ Shelton and one shot ahead of Kingston.
O'Mera and Dethlefsen combined for a round of 71 while Loerlein matched their score. Maloney and Ezra Perkins shot a combined 79.
Port Townsend's Sean Anderson and Cody Piper won the two-man title with a round of 67.
Girls breeze to win
Sequim's girls had a slightly easier time, edging out Port Angeles by four shots to claim the invitational title. Kingston was third.
Sequim's Kim Duce and Hailey Estes shot a 76 while Zbaraschuk and Ashley Morton combined to shoot a 77.
Tracie Dupuis and Emily Cook of Port Angeles took home the two-player title with a round of 72.
Sequim joined Port Angeles and Olympic in a match at The Cedars at Dungeness on April 27 that, for league standing purposes, counted as a match only between P.A. and Olympic.
Sequim outshot both teams, however, scoring 125 Stableford points to Port Angeles' 114 and Olympic's 90.
Zbaraschuk had the top round of the day with a one-over 38 for 35 points, followed by Duce (46), Estes (47), Lisa Doan (52) and Morton (57).
"The girls keep improving," Sequim girls' coach Garrett Smithson said. "It went really well - the best they've played since I've been here."
Sequim topped North Mason easily on April 29, winning the league match 113-22 to stay undefeated at 6-0.
Zoei Zbaraschuk was medalist once again with a round of 43 for 29 Stableford points. Doan and Duce each shot nine-hole rounds of 47.
Upcoming rounds
Sequim's squads take on Port Angeles on May 6 at home.
The Wolves' top boys golfers, O'Mera and Loerlein, battle some of the best duffers in the state at the Bill Egbers tournament at Skagit Golf & Country Club in Burlington on May 7.
The Olympic League tourney is slated for May 11 at The Cedars at Dungeness; the boys start at 11 a.m. while the girls begin at about noon.
The top four golfers at league earn automatic bids to the class 2A state tournament. Other golfers have a shot to qualify for state on May 18 at the West Central District tournament at Eagle's Pride Golf Course at Fort Lewis, near Tacoma.
The state tourney is slated for May 25-26 at Apple Tree Golf Course in Yakima.
League leaders
Michael Noyes of Olympic leads the league with a 15.5 Stableford points average.
Sequim's O'Mera is fourth with a 14-point average and Loerlein seventh with an 11.3 average.
On the girls' side, Zbaraschuk leads the league with a 32.0 average. Port Angeles' Emily Cook is a distant second with 26.3 points per match. Sequim's Duce is seventh with 22.2 points, Doan is 10th with 19 points per match and Estes is 11th with an 18.8 point average.

Ben Smith of Hotchkiss High School, and Carissa Sidor and J'Kye Wientjes both of Delta High School, were presented with their awards by Bill Hellman Jr. last week.
Smith plans to study animal sciences at Iowa State University. Sidor will continue her education at Adams State in a pre-veterinarian program. Wientjes will pursue an agricultural engineering degree at Fort Lewis College.
The Built Ford Tough FFA Scholarships are intended to recognize FFA members' talents and accomplishments while encouraging their future academic achievements.
The scholarships are among 529 awarded by the Ford Division, Ford Motor Company Fund and Ford Dealers. The scholarships go to FFA members who are high school seniors planning to attend college, or who are current college students. The program is part of Ford's overall commitment to the National FFA Foundation.
Ford has supported the National FFA Foundation since the first F-Series truck was introduced in 1948. Ford has sponsored the Built Ford Tough collegiate scholarship program since 1997. To date, the program has awarded $7.1 million in scholarships to over 7,000 FFA members nationwide.
The FFA mission is to make a positive difference in the lives of students by developing their potential for leadership, personal growth, and career success through agricultural education.

By Jean DePlacido
---- — SALEM — The Peabody girls basketball team may be young, but they are also talented. The Tanners don't have a single senior this year, but junior captains Carolyn Scacchi and Alex Lomasney combined for 25 points and 24 rebounds in a 54-37 opening night victory over host Salem.
Scacchi dominated the middle and had a team-high 14 points to go with 16 rebounds, five assists, two steals, and a block while Lomasney added 11 points and eight rebounds.
"The play of our two captains made a statement about effort," said Peabody coach Jane Heil. "I'm very happy with this performance. I think 54 points is a high for this group. We missed some inside shots, but that will come. After our scrimmages I started to wonder where the scoring would come from."
The veteran Heil was especially pleased considering how solid the Witches tend to be on defense.
"Those 54 points came against a good defensive team. (Salem coach) John Fortunato always stresses defense," she said. "I saw some hustle plays that I liked. Lomasney dove on a ball even though she knew she was going to get hit, and that inspired us all to keep playing hard."
After going on a 10-0 run midway through the opening quarter Peabody took charge of the game and never trailed again. They were up by nine points after one quarter and 13 at halftime, 30-17. The Tanners often missed their initial shot but used their big height advantage to get second and third chances that they buried.
Olivia Summit had a double-double with 11 points and 10 rebounds. Amanda Matthews chipped in with nine boards, and guard Sara Hosman had a big game with 11 points, seven rebounds, and three steals. Hosman, who is the only freshman on the varsity, earned a starting spot.
"What a performance for a freshman," said Heil. "She's a tall guard which is good, and she has some nice guards to complement her. This was a complete team effort, and I was pleased with everybody. Scacchi had a double-double, something I knew she was capable of. What I liked most was that she wanted to go to the basket. They had to double her, and in that situation she'll give it to the open person. She really understands the game."
Peabody capitalized on 14 turnovers by the Witches in the first half, and used their speed to run the fast break effectively. The Witches were led by sophomore guard Arianna Gaffney, who had 17 points including three treys. Sophomore center Jaclyn Panneton added eight, and Rachael Zipper had seven.
"This was a great game one, and I really liked how hard the kids played," said Salem coach John Fortunato. "Peabody's size will present problems to a lot of teams, and there's no question they controlled inside the paint. They got a number of points off rebounds and turnovers.
"We have a new group playing together, and we're going to be okay. All our girls went hard when they got on the floor, and we'll continue to get better."
Scacchi, who was much more physical and assertive, hit a layup at the buzzer to give her team a comfortable 15 point cushion going into the final quarter when both coaches emptied their benches.
"This is a good way to start," said Scacchi. "We're young with five juniors, five sophomores, and a freshman. I really wanted to have a good game here because I never seem to play well when we come to Salem. We all got a little upset when one newspaper article listed teams to look out for, and Peabody wasn't on the list. We want to show everybody we are a team to look out for."

Presumed Innocentby Scott Turow
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The novel that launched Turow's career as one of America's pre-eminent thriller writers tells the story of Rusty Sabich, chief deputy prosecutor in a large Midwestern city. With three weeks to go in his boss' re-election campaign, a member of Rusty's staff is found murdered; he is charged with finding the killer, until his boss loses and, incredibly, Rusty finds himself accused of the murder.
Review:"Chicago defense attorney Turow, formerly a U.S. prosecutor, capitalizes on his intimate knowledge of the courtroom in an impressive first novel that matches Anatomy of a Murder in its intensity and verisimilitude. With the calculating genius of a good lawyer (and writer), Turow, author of the nonfiction One L, draws the reader into a grittily realistic portrait of big city political corruption that climaxes with a dramatic murder trial in which every dark twist of legal statute and human nature is convincingly revealed. The novel's present tense puts the reader firmly in the mind of narrator Rusty Sabich, a married prosecuting attorney whose affair with a colleague comes back to haunt him after she is brutally raped and murdered. Sabich's professional and personal lives begin to mingle painfully when he becomes the accused. His is a gripping and provocative dilemma: ''Sitting in court, I actually forget who is on trial at certain moments.... And once we get back to the office, I can be a lawyer again, attacking the books, making notes and memos.'' Turow's ability to forge the reader's identification with the protagonist, his insightful characterizations of Sabich's legal colleagues and the overwhelming sense he conveys of being present in the courtroom are his most brilliant and satisfying contributions to what may become a literary crime classic." Publishers Weekly (Copyright Reed Business Information, Inc.)
Review:"Spellbinding....The suspense is relentless....Surprise follows surprise....The work of a profoundly gifted writer" New York Times
Synopsis:Now available in trade paperback, Presumed Innocent brings to life our worst nightmare: that of an ordinary citizen facing conviction for the most terrible of crimes. Prosecutor Rusty Sabich is transformed from accuser to accused when he is handed an explosive case — that of the brutal murder of a woman who happens to be his former lover.
About the AuthorA lawyer-turned-writer acknowledged to be every bit as good as Grisham, if not better, Scott Turow is still working hard at turning out believable, complex legal thrillers — and still working hard in the legal practice that fuels his writing.

I tend to agree, but North Korea does stupid irrational things on the regular, trying to apply logic to his rule is a fools errand.
I still don't understand why China doesn't just deal with North Korea though. That little country is broke as hell, why not just take it over themselves?

Went on it because I want to get pregnant. Started 200mg twice a day, now on 300mg 3 times a day. Had to get used to the side effects, tingly head, headaches and numbness in legs. Seems ok now. Have to watch what I eat, can't drink too much on it, BP goes in the 140/90 next day if I do.

Happy Hour: Lemonade Mojito
I dug this recipe out of my recipe file, ripped out of InStyle magazine years ago and just waiting for its moment. It's great for big groups since it can be made in large batches, and I like that it uses vodka instead of the usual rum, since I have a lot of friends who find rum off-putting.
It's very tart and sufficiently sweet, and without the vodka, it's just a minty homemade lemonade. To get the recipe, read more.
InStyle magazine 1/2 cup mint leaves, plus mint sprigs for garnish * To make a nonalcoholic batch of lemonade, reserve the vodka and add 1 1/2 ounces to each glass before pouring.Lemonade Mojitos

Thanks for dropping by and checking out our blog. Between processing orders for bottles of sauce and merchandise on our BBQ website www.jrsbarbq.com and traveling for WWE, things have been hectic as we've been as busy, as my Grandpa would say, as a fruit merchant. That's not a complaint by the way.
Friday Night Smackdown on MyNetworkTV is a solid broadcast that I encourage you to check out if for nothing else but to enjoy the return bout between Rey Mysterio and Chris Jericho for the Intercontinental Title.
I defy any one to watch this match in its entirety and honestly proclaim that it wasn't one of the best bouts ever on SD.
If one likes old school wrestling that is void of wasted motion and head scratching maneuvers that make little or no sense, then this is the main event for you. Two future WWE Hall of Famers rock the house with Jericho looking to become the only 10 time Intercontinental Champion in WWE history.
ESPN, despite all their talking heads (sans Jonathan Coachman) who love to often times, with their witty banter, make the stories that they cover about themselves and not about sports, would make Friday night's Mysterio-Jericho title bout an "Instant Classic."
Friday Night Smackdown arguably has two of the top young talents in all WWE in John Morrison and Dolph Ziggler and they face each other on SD this week. At this early stage of their evolution, wins and loses always count but not nearly as much as as it will when these two men finally reach regular, main event status and are competing for titles.
C.M. Punk seems to be slowly losing favor with many of the fans who once supported him but who am I to say without proof that Punk doesn't have an eye injury? Punk vs. Jeff Hardy will take place for the World Title in Philly at the Night of Champions in a couple of weeks in a contest that feels as if it has enormous pressure on Jeff to win the title for his own sanity and well being.
Jeff Hardy can beat C.M. Punk, without question, but whether or not Jeff can do it with excessive self imposed pressue on himself is another question for which I don't have an answer.
Jeff faces Kane on Friday Night Smackdown which is never a fun task as Kane has returned from an extended leave and looks to be fresher and healthier than he has been in a while. I still get questions as to whether or not Kane will ever return to wearing his mask and to that one I say, "I don't know." We do have an authentic Kane mask, the last one he actually wore, on display at J.R.'s Family BBQ in Norman, Oklahoma just off I35 south of OKC at exit 109.
It looks as if Jerry Lawler has thrown his crown into the race for Mayor of Memphis, Tennessee in a specially called election that will be held this fall. The Mayor's job is a full time position which would mean that if Jerry were elected that he would have to suspend his WWE responsibilities while being his hometown's chief executive. This is no publicity stunt and Jerry is very serious about helping his community of which he should be applauded. I wish him the best of luck and hope that the citizens of Memphis recognize that Jerry is not a professional politician but merely a man devoted to making is hometown a better place to live for all the folks who reside there.
WWE Hall of Famer Jerry Brisco and I talked Thursday just a few hours after Jerry under went heart surgery to repair some birth defects in his ticker with which the Oklahoma native just recently discovered. The surgery was successful and hopefully Jerry will be at his lakeside home in Tampa beginning his recuperation by the time you read this.

Hi there James William (what we called you when you were a whole lot younger),
Just wanted to invite you and your family to our "First Official Ross Family Reunion" to be held the last week-end of Sept. 2009. I am your cousin; my Daddy, Ira Bee Ross and your Grandfather James Dee, were twins. If you and / or your daughters can attend you can reach me at firstname.lastname@example.com for further details.
I have been researching our Ross Genealogy for the past few years and am trying to reach as many relatives no matter how distantly related. Take care, and if I ever make it up to the Oklahoma City area (I live in Texas) I will enjoy coming to your resturant.

Great hearing from you. Send me more info at the contact us location here on the site. The last weekend in September means OU football season here in Norman which is the busiest time of the year for our BBQ joint. Would love to attend a reunion some day when the schedules work. Traveling approximately 51 weeks a year cuts into a great deal of family time but I likely won't be maintaining this schedule for too much longer. Thanks!

I took a trip this last week to a Sierra Mountain Lake that holds some very nice size Brook Trout. Took along my brand new White River Float Tube and had a blast. Going during the week left the lake to just my friend and I to fish. The pockets were ample for my fly boxes and other tackle. I am not fond of the color but it's not something to be concerned about. The top compartment for either another bladder or, in my case, a nit cap could be a little larger. The netting that shows 18 inches and crosses the front of you while sitting in the tube came in handy. Made it easy to see the length of the fish as well as helping to land it. All in all I am pleased with my purchase experince.
Thank you.

Not as easy to maneuver as I thought it would be. Would be ok if you don't have a boat. Is good for small or cramped areas. Good conversation piece

Rated 3 out of 5 by Paulymach ok, but needs improvement
Tube is nice, works well has great advantages with the U tube design, I like it. I do NOT like the vinyl bladders, two of mine leak, the main head rest has failed completely, I use my tube a lot, I fish 3-4 times a week, I am constantly re-filling the bladders, it is easy, the dual action pump is great, but unnecessary as you can blow this up with your own mouth........even with the fancy valve system, my main bladder leaks from the valve, a litte silicone tape helped, but it still leaks a little....

Rated 5 out of 5 by JoshCaliFlyer Great product
I'm 6'4" and 315 lbs, and this tube worked just fine for me. I fished all day with it yesterday, it holds air well, and is stable. Even for a tall guy like me, the back rest was fine-I'm actually considering taking out the very top bladder, to use as storage. For the price, you can't beat it. The tube is very maneuverable and handles choppy water and wind well. I didn't have any issues with sliding forward out of it or anything. All in all, if you are looking to buy your first float tube, and don't have the cash to buy a more expensive one, than this is the perfect one to get.

in-stock item. I kept sliding forward in the seat to the point where water went down the back of my chest waders. I am considering rigging a waist belt to the D rings in the back to keep the seat under me. Are there any recommendations to fix this problem?Answers
I never had water go down the back of my waders but it sure felt like it was going to happen to me. So I now take a life jacket and use hockey tape to strap it down to the top of my seat. It gives me that extra lift so I don't have that feeling anymore. Hope that helps.A:
Is your apron designed for stabilizer bar? If so, all you need is some 3/4" schedule 80 tubing. Overall length for the brace is 22". I have not had any problems with sliding forward in the tube. I shove my butt as far back in the tube as possible. The only downside to this position is the edge of the seat tends to "bite" into your cheeks over long periods of time.A:
Adjust the strap that goes from the seat to the stabilizer bar. If you tighten it so it pulls up in the front you won't slide down in the seat.Details:

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
It was just different, for me. The Cata trailer was very focused on Deathwing and the altering of the landscape. This is focused more on the new race and class and its home environment, which is not broken. A little lighter after the heaviness of Wrath and Cata's cinematics.
And we haven't gotten to the opening cinematic itself yet, either.

Manage Photos with gThumb
gThumb may look like yet another image viewer, but behind its unassuming appearance hides a rather capable application that can help you to manage photos efficiently.
As any decent image viewer, gThumb provides all essential tools for browsing images and performing basic operations, such as rotating and resizing graphics files, converting images to different formats, and tweaking EXIF metadata. If you use tags to keep tabs on your photos, you'll appreciate gThumb's tag editing feature. To quickly assign one of the existing tags to a specific photo, right-click on it and choose the desired tag from the Tags menu. Choose the Other item to add new tags and assign them to the photo. To specify additional metadata, press the Comment button on the main toolbar, and fill out the available fields.
gThumb allows you to group photos into so-called catalogs (you can think of them as virtual folders), and the Organize button lets you generate catalogs based on several criteria, such as dates and tags. You can also create custom catalogs and add photos to them manually. To create a new catalog, right-click on the Catalogs item in the navigation pane, choose the Create Catalog command, give the catalog a descriptive name and press Create. Add then photos to the catalog by right-clicking on them and choosing the catalog from the Add to Catalog menu.
The application also features a handful of basic editing tools. To access them, double-click on a photo, and press the Edit file button in the top-right corner of the editing interface. While gThumb won't replace a dedicated image editing application, the available tools can come in handy for quickly tweaking basic settings like brightness, saturation, and contrast as well as adjusting white balance and fixing common problems.
The Share button on the main toolbar lets you upload photos to several popular photo sharing services, including Flickr, Picasaweb, and Photobucket.
These are just a few highlights, and gThumb offers a slew of other useful features which make it a competent tool for managing and tweaking photos (take a look at a list of gThumb's features to get a better idea of its capabilities). So if you are looking for a fast, lean, and feature-rich image viewer, gThumb fits the bill rather nicely.

I prefer digikam (Linux KDE), but soon I will change back to windows 7… any good image managing programs for windows?
that was more than prompt. That was instantaneous. Thanks for the suggestion, I will look in to it once the machine is here.
Irfanview (Windows) is good in that you can add BF8 Photoshop filters to it. However, its own editing tools are very crude. I much prefer Faststone image viewer for better basic editing. Has a very unique interface that takes some getting used to, but is pleasing and keeps everything ready to hand.
I cannot find a source download link on the project pages – where can I get it?
gThumb is available in software repositories of most mainstream Linux distributions.
Thanks, but that does not help me or answer my question, where can I get the source?
It doesn't open raw files. Most of us shoot in Raw format!.
I am so glad to see you write this. gThumb is a very slept on piece of software. I am a big Gnome fan and recently I ditched Shotwell for gThumb. I use gThumb to import my pictures to a standardized directory structure and once imported to my hard drive, I use it as a file explorer to look through photos.
I used to love Shotwell but it has been very buggy. Plus, I don't understand the need to establish a "library". I much prefer using gThumb's technique of simple file viewing using the organized, date driven, directory structures.
gThumb even looks more pleasing.
gThumb should be default in all distros over Shotwell.
gThumb is almost what I need. I like the layout and interface. I only need and use very basic editing functions, but the deal-killer for me is the lack of a crop function.
I use Windows at work and I've long been a fan of xnview. It's similar in operation to ACDSee, but faster and not so bloated.
gThumb does have the cropping tool. To access it, you need to switch to the editing mode. Select the image you want to modify, then click on the Edit file button (it looks like a palette) in the upper-right corner of gThumb's window.
gthumb has been around for more then 10 years and its great!
Look, folks. Personal preference applies, and the real point is, we have plethora of choices. Yet back to the point, many misinformed are trying to prove Windows superior; because installation requires some minor things better chosen (not testing/beta/unstable stuff, on your main system, and not, really old computers), and there will be some minor tweaks needed after *any* install, to achieve anyone's various personal preference. The thing about Windows being installed; at the store, is a big deal. Android, and Apache proves Windows is not better, it is more forced.
I can only tell you what I see, as unbiased as I can, but for what I do. I have tried, practically every photo related program, on all platforms.
Gthumb is outstanding for viewing (but EOG is great), and also for uploading to more, and varying sites. This also prepping (by settings), and before an upload can save time, but is less important, depending on how your preferred photo hosting site handles your photos. The large photo you send, the most difference this can make; if your photo is down-sampled on your computer first. If you finish your photo to about x1600 px, or less, it is not much of an issue, unless you are on dial-up. Also, gthumb has some very light editing, but I PREFER, Gimp; for almost everything. THe Gimp is one stop shopping *and* I use ufraw, for my Nikon *if* I need a photo to be developed from Raw. You see, all raw files includes an embedded, and already downsized JPEG(that you see on your camera), So, unless a certain camera requires JPEG, like for drive mode, I shoot only Raw, and later get both. Usually, if you exposed (and other specific camera settings) properly, then the embedded JPEG is good to go. But guess what? I *always* have the original, and as a Raw, containing every possible thing the camera could record.
So now, ufraw (best) is a rarely needed process. The trick is setting up ufraw, as per explained on it's simple to read web site, for your camera, including a loaded ufraw-color profile, for said camera model JUST ONE TIME. This is done; by setting the saved ufraw output (use *.PNG for your temporary working file) to save just this once. Do this every time you make a tweak, to *match* your ufraw loaded Raw, to the camera JPEG output. This way, quick light/color adjustments (by 16bit curves), can be done by eye, very quickly. That's the whole reason you would want to develop Raw, unless your camera JPEG's suck, It that case, you can actually match to another camera (thet you might not even own) JPEG; that your prefer! The point is, when you click on your Raw file, ufraw just develops it, in like 8 seconds. Therefore, if all you wanted is the full JPEG, you are done.
Keep in mind, just pulling out the embedded JPEG, is faster than that, and requires not post setup. dcraw does this, and I just set it as my right click selectable (open with) task, and do entire batches, instantaneously (depending on have a decent computer). Use dcraw -e, one time, in your file manager, to set your right click, custom open as task. Remember, a regular left click, of your Raw (Like *.NEF; for one example) develops it into a (preset once) full JPEG match, from ufraw.
Note: Some cameras will output a full JPEG, from it Raw(later), too. Another alternative. It's camera dependent. Of course, if you really need local light level tweaks, this is usually better, by eye, and on computer(ufraw). Including free upgrades!
You can also load/save/download/make ufraw color profiles, that you set just one time, for other camera models too. Optionally, you can *also* save different sets of sat curves too, to match instant "D-Lighting" (zone/local) levels, if you want to make them up. it might save more time. It's not necessary, however. There's also a base curve, for more global (not per photo) control, in batches. ufraw has a batch mode too. Yet, you really need to know, that using curves, instead of sliders (by eye, and on a calibrated monitor), not contrast, and "brightness"(black point) sliders, is better. Ufraw has an overall exposure slider, and 16-bit WB fixer, as needed. Graduate to using (local) curves(ufraw on only the pictures, that will benefit from it); like the pros, or just would use JPEG. ufraw is completely optional, in the first place.
Raw is actually needed more so, on worse sensors.
One does not adjust all, that ufraw can adjust; because you just want to change the 16-bit light levels, before taking your output as a *.PNG file, into Gimp (or other pixel pushing finisher of your choice). Do not worry about noise while in ufraw. Use wavelet denoise, in the Gimp, for example.
You can also install a direct transfer, from ufraw to the Gimp; but a *.PNG temporary work file, that you can blow away later, might be a better option. Such as, tending to EXIF pass through, for example. It's all; just what you want.
So anyway, I choose ufraw; just occasionally, and Gimp, for everything needing editing; *because* I can do any type of photo improvement, this way. It covers more needs; by just these two programs (and Gimp plug-ins). It is standardized, one stop shopping, and without consumer lock-in. It's multi-platform, too! In an ongoing future, I get the new features, as the become ready!
You should know that numerous Gimp plug-ins, and scripts, let you do extremely complex, and the most advanced stuff, and it can be just by ONE CLICK away! You do not have to do everything, from scratch, in the highly flexible Gimp. It is pretty much what you want it to be, and how you want to use it. Keep in mind, I previously used Lightroom. In my opinion, ufraw, and Gimp, is far better. It's a different workflow, and that's better, faster, and with no Lr catalog hell!. All the other functions, that they keep laying-on to closed-up, closed-minded tiers, only lock you in. Other open apps *are* available; through many easy to use, and "open" programs, that are numerous.
If you want photo extremely, extensive photo management (because you do not have a folder scheme), then take a look at Digikam (also does Raw BTW), and you can do all that fancy organizing stuff, like face recognition, and fancy sorting, etc, with DIgikam. I still go back to Gimp/ufraw, for photo enhancement, and of all (numerous) tasks, and needs. All manner of "treatments", and you can match *any* look. Spot healing tools, gradients, cross processing effects; you name it.
Gthumb is very good photo manager but now it cannot export to facebook.

"Bordeaux" Jordan Son of Mars – New Images
June 2nd, 2012 by Aaron Hope | 25 comments
A fitting blend for a sneaker composed of elements from Air Jordans III-VI plus the XX strap, the Jordan Son of Mars has to this point been roughly split between classic colorways and new looks. One of these signature looks has even been through the process twice, as the earlier 'Pop Art' original was compared to this more obvious Air Jordan VII homage thanks to its colorful accents. But whereas the first pair was a considerable stretch to connect with the Sevens that first retroed last February after a nineteen year wait, this 'Bordeaux' Jordan Son of Mars really lives up to its name. That's not to say they haven't all been altered, though, as the Son of Mars adds a bit of mint green to its heel and outsole to connect the 'Bordeaux' palette with one of 2012′s trendy colors. Check out new images after the jump below and let us know if the mid-September release date is already circled on your calendar. Photos: Taobao

SHREVEPORT, La. (AP) - The Independence Bowl is changing its name to the AdvoCare V100 Bowl as part of a new sponsorship deal. The Ohio University Bobcats defeated the ULM Warhawks in the 2012 bowl game. It was the first bowl appearance for ULM.
The Independence Bowl Foundation and AdvoCare, who announced the deal jointly on Thursday, say the agreement is aimed at rebranding the bowl and helping it grow into one of the top 10 in the nation.
AdvoCare President Richard Wright says the deal enhances marketing resources for the bowl, which will push for stronger matchups when its contracts with affiliated conferences expire after 2013.
Currently, the bowl game has the ninth pick after the BCS of SEC teams and the sixth pick of ACC teams.
The Independence Bowl name stems from the game's founding during the United States' bicentennial in 1976. AdvoCare has been its chief sponsor the past four seasons.

I'm not overly excited

Comments about Nikon COOLPIX S6000 Silver 14.2 Megapixel Digital Camera Kit:
My 2003 Olympus was wonderful, but I wanted something more up to date with a quicker recharge, better backlight correction and "burst" mode without spending the money for an SLR. (I just take pics of the dogs, friends and kids!)My pictures with the Nikon have not been as clear as I would like and many have been blurred (unless using the sports/action mode). My ex-wife has a Canon point and shoot that was $30 less and seems to take a perfect picture every time (but doesn't have the burst mode, which is the reason I bought the Nikon.)I'm the first to admit that I have to spend a few hours studying the manual to figure out the 50 things this camera does and, hopefully, after studying it thoroughly, I'll come out with a better quality picture. So I may be judging too quickly, but I'm still impressed with my ex's Canon that had no learning curve at all. (She barely knows where to find the button to take the picture!)

Thank you Tommy and Deb. I wish all mum's here at TCB a very Happy Mother's Day too.
We had ours in March, happy Mothers Day to all of you mums/moms.
Happy Mothers Day to all the women who make the world a better place, by having children and working hard to raise them correctly (along with help from all the fathers of course) its a thankless job sometimes.
Work in Progress!
I want to wish all of the Mom's a Happy Mother's Day!!!
Happy Mothersday, also in Europe!
