The following guest post by Andrew Jennings was originally published on the FICO Banking Analytics Blog.
Lately I've been examining the results of our latest quarterly survey of US bank risk managers. One item of note was regarding the outlook for credit availability. In a positive sign, our survey found that lenders expected the supply of credit to satisfy demand for all types of consumer loans in the second half of this year. It's a change from last quarter when survey respondents expected the credit supply for residential mortgages to fall short of demand.
When asked whether credit supply would meet or exceed demand for credit cards over the next six months, 77% of survey respondents said yes. For car loans, the figure was 82%. For residential mortgages, 55% of respondents expected supply to meet or exceed demand. For small business loans, the figure was 56%, and for student loans, 61%.
While the findings present a sharp contrast to the pessimism expressed in our European risk survey, in the US, this is hopeful news. I was particularly struck by the numbers for residential mortgages and small business loans. Those are two areas where credit has been tight over the past few years. If lenders really are ready to extend more credit to those borrowers, it could provide a stimulus for the US economy.
Also noteworthy, more than 35% of survey respondents expect the approval rate for consumer credit applications to increase over the next six months. That's compared to only 19% that expect the approval rate to decline. Moreover, 45% of those surveyed expect the total amount of consumer credit extended by lenders to increase during the next two quarters—nearly triple the percentage of respondents who expected a decrease.

The SGI is based on the teachings and philosophy of Nichiren Buddhism, which places the highest emphasis on the sanctity of life. Members seek, through their practice of Buddhism, to develop the ability to live with confidence, to create value in any circumstance and to contribute to the well-being of friends, family and community.
Our philosophy is rooted in the concept of "human revolution," a process of inner transformation through Buddhist practice. It is a process that leads us to develop our character and to act not only for our personal fulfillment but also for the betterment of society.
We believe that happiness is being able to experience profound joy that comes from never being defeated by any problem in life. In fact, we use life's challenges as catalysts to deepen and expand our inner lives. True happiness results from our efforts to manifest our highest potential—wisdom, compassion, courage and vitality.
The SGI-USA is the American branch of the SGI network, with more than 2,600 neighborhood discussion groups and nearly 100 SGI-USA centers throughout the country.
The core activity for all SGI-USA members is the neighborhood discussion meeting. These informal gatherings bring people together for Buddhist prayer, study, sharing and discussion of ways Buddhism can be applied to the challenges of daily living.

Advanced Format Hard Drive Download Utility About Western Digital Advanced Format Hard Drives
WD Advanced Format drives are specifically optimized for Mac and the latest Windows operating systems such as Windows Vista and Windows 7 with a clean install. Advanced Format Technology is being adopted by WD and other drive manufacturers to increase media format efficiency, thus enabling larger drive capacities.
Using your WD Advanced Format Hard Drive with a Windows Operating System may require you to run the WD Align Windows software utility after you install your operating system or partition and format the drive as a secondary drive. The WD Align software aligns existing partitions on the Advanced Format drive to ensure it provides full performance for certain configurations. (Please see table for configuration details)
If your operating system is either Windows 7 or Vista, WD recommends using the latest Intel driver version 9.6 or later for maximum performance in all situations. Please visit Intel for the latest driver downloads.
What does Advanced Formatting mean to me?
Advanced formatting optimizes hard drives to take advantage of the capabilities of newer operating systems. This capability enables hard disk drive manufacturers the ability to design larger capacity hard drives, now and into the future.
What are the benefits of Advanced Formatting?
Advanced Formatting enables hard drive companies to read and write more data into the same available space on the hard drive.
Can I install an Advanced Format hard drive in my system?
New drives from WD are optimized for operation with Windows 7, Windows Vista and Mac OS X Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard. If you are attempting a clean install of an Advanced Format hard drive into a system running one of the Operating Systems listed above the installation process follows standard procedure. For older operating systems such as Windows XP, and for users using cloning software, users must run the WD Align utility to achieve the full performance of the drive. (See table for configuration details)
Early 3.5-inch WD drives with Advanced Format supported jumper pins 7 – 8. Placing a jumper on these pins adjusted the drive's internal alignment for single partition XP installations. Support for this jumper setting is no longer needed on newer drives. For optimal performance on all XP installations WD recommends running the WD Align utility.
If you have a drive that supports jumper pins 7 – 8 and have a jumper in place on those pins, the following is additional information to assist you if you are re-installing an Operating System or re-partitioning the drive:
For a clean install of Windows XP using multiple partitions, DO NOT install the jumper; simply run the WD Align utility.
Can I install a WD Advanced Format Drive under non-Windows Operating Systems, such as MacOS and Linux?
WD Advanced Format Drives can be used under non-Windows Operating Systems. Please visit the Advanced Format Drives - Installation on non-Windows Operating Systems page.
Do I need a special driver to install a WD Advanced Format Drive on an Intel chipset?
If your operating system is either Windows 7 or Vista, we recommend the following for maximum performance in all situations:
What is WD Align utility software?
The WD Align utility enables older operating systems to operate at full performance on Advanced Format hard drives.
How long will running the WD Align utility take?
It will vary based on your operating system and how much data is on the disk, but the WD Align utility should take about 20 minutes to complete on freshly installed drive images with no data files. We recommend disabling Power Management prior to starting the partitioning alignment process. Please click here for further instructions.
Does the WD Align utility have to be run again if a drive is reformatted?
No, users will only need to run WD Align one time after initially installing Windows XP. Once Windows XP has been aligned, it will stay aligned even if the drive is reformatted or many files are added or removed.
Does WD Align work with Western Digital USB and Firewire drives, such as My Book and My Passport drives?
If you do not change the partitions on a Western Digital USB or Firewire drive, the drive is already optimally aligned. However, all Western Digital USB and Firewire drives are specifically designed to work with WD Align. If you repartition a Western Digital USB or Firewire drive, WD Align should be run to optimally align the partition or partitions.
Can I install my Advanced Format Drive into a USB enclosure?
Yes, you may install your Advanced Format Drive into a USB enclosure. Please click here for further installation instructions.
Examples of the number of photos, songs, videos and any other files that can be stored on a hard drive are provided for illustrative purposes only. Your results will vary based on file size and format, settings, features, software and other factors.
As used for storage capacity, one megabyte (MB) = one million bytes, one gigabyte (GB) = one billion bytes, and one terabyte (TB) = one trillion bytes.

Can you spell these commonly misspelled words?Forget about "saccharolytic," "admittatur," and "arrondissement." While 14-year-old Snigdha Nandipati had no problem with those advanced vocabulary words during the National Spelling Bee on Thursday (she won by spelling "guetapens," which means "ambush"), most adults have a hard time with words that are much easier.
Related: 5 ways to upgrade your vocabulary without sounding like a know-it-all
According to the experts at Oxford Dictionaries, YourDictionary.com, and Spellchecker.net -- as well as some longtime English teachers -- the words we misspell most often aren't archaic or obscure. In fact, the most commonly misspelled words are ones we use all the time (including, ironically, "misspell"). Here are 15 words you already know but probably don't always spell correctly, along with handy hints for getting them right every time.
- A lot. That's right, it's two words.
- A while. Again, two words.
- Believe. This one follows the old "I before E except after C" rule.
- Congratulations. It's easier to remember to use a "t" (instead of a "d") if you just say "Congrats!"
- Embarrass. The word is long enough for two sets of double letters ("rr" and "ss").
- Fiery. The "e" from "fire" hides inside when things get hot.
- Grateful. There's no "great" in "grateful."
- Its. Like "his," "hers" and "ours," this possessive doesn't have an apostrophe.
- It's. If you mean to say "it is," use an apostrophe to join the two words together.
- Lose. Lose the extra "o."
- Misspell. Mis + spell.
- Principal. The head of the school is your pal.
- Receipt. The "except" part of the "I before E except after C" rule.
- Separate. The two "e"s are separated by two "a"s.
- Weird. Remember that "I before E except after C" rule? This word breaks it.
Related: The worst mistakes to make on your resume
Spellcheckers seem like a godsend, but they can't help when the word is incorrect but not misspelled. For example, this excerpt from an error-filled poem -- "Candidate for a Pullet Surprise" by Mark Eckman and Jerrold H. Zar -- would get the green light from any spell checking program:
To rite with care is quite a feet
Of witch won should bee proud,
And wee mussed dew the best wee can,
Sew flaw's are knot aloud.
(There are eight other verses, but you probably get the point.)
And don't rely on your auto-correct function, either. Since it can't recognize most foreign words or proper names, it can cause more problems than it fixes. (See: Damn You Auto Correct.)

Hospitals ramp up efforts to reduce noise, mandate quiet timeBy Modern Healthcare
Efforts to hush the noise
Start small: Focus on simple interventions aimed at changing staff culture, including educational posters and buttons, before moving on to projects that require significant capital outlay.
Enlist the help of frontline clinicians: Each unit will need to approach noise reduction in different ways, and collaborating closely with clinicians can bolster improvement. Include environmental services staff: Staff are much more willing to refrain from vacuuming during quiet hours or using squeaky carts when they understand the mission and feel that they're part of the team. At 1:30 p.m. sharp, nurses in the family birthing unit at St. Joseph Hospital in Chicago begin dimming the lights, closing patients' room doors, hushing staff conversations, silencing phones and gently reminding physicians to limit disruptions. Environmental services workers avoid running vacuums or pushing noisy carts, and friends and family are urged to choose alternate times to visit. The efforts in St. Joseph's birthing unit and ICU are just part of a larger multi-unit initiative undertaken nearly two years ago by the 301-bed hospital to reduce unnecessary noise, a vexing problem made worse by increasingly complex technology. Hospitals' strategies have included everything from installing noise-absorbing ceiling tiles, cuing up white-noise machines, initiating staff education programs and simply passing out earplugs to patients. At St. Joseph, different units have taken varied approaches to the problem. The lost sleep and stress associated with hospital noise may also lead to worse health outcomes, according to recent research. A January 2012 study by University of Chicago researchers found that hospital noise levels often exceeded World Health Organization recommendations. And a June 2012 study by Harvard University researchers found that patients' heart rates increased after noise-related sleep disruptions.

A bit like the MCG really. Drove back to Arles and Sophie and Phil had a quick swim. As it was already 6.30pm we checked out the menu for tonight and decided to eat at the hotel. Each night they prepare 3 different meals for the 3 courses and Sophie was happy with chicken ...

I love learning about the guts and gears of music, but I hate to be taught.
Quote from: dead last on November 30, 2013, 05:18:01 PMI love learning about the guts and gears of music, but I hate to be taught.I'm not sure if that means that you'll watch or you'll hate them because they are trying to teach you something in the lectures...
Learning from books is what I do best; videos are the next best thing.
I'll get these down in a list.For the moment I am using Harmony and Voice Leading, by Edward Aldwell, Carl Schachter, and Allen Cadwallader.I think I should finish this one first before venturing into deeper territory, no?
Thanks fenrir. I will give it a try.I found this a little while ago which was helpful. As for the books mentioned, well I'm not sure how just much deeper I really need to go as the type of music I would be trying to make is synth and sequencers etc. i.e. all my reading time spent on operation manuals .

CHARLESTON, W.Va. -- Candidates for 4th and 8th District state Senate seats want to see more funds diverted to highway infrastructure.
Republicans Mitch Carmichael and Chris Walters, and Democrats Michael Bright and Joshua Martin met with the Daily Mail editorial board on Tuesday.
Candidates agreed the state needs to spend more money on roads, and they also have concerns about the cost of a potential expansion of the state's Medicaid program as part of the federal Affordable Care Act.
Carmichael and Bright, both of Ripley, are facing off for one of two seats in the 4th District, which includes parts of Putnam, Mason, Jackson and Roane counties. Sen. Karen Facemyer, R-Jackson, currently holds that seat but has decided not to seek re-election.
Carmichael, 52, is an executive with Frontier Communications and currently serves as minority whip in the House of Delegates. Bright, a former Marine and State Police officer, is finishing his second term as Jackson County sheriff.
Walters and Martin are seeking an open 8th District seat held by Sen. Dan Foster, D-Kanawha, who is not seeking re-election. That district used to be wholly in Kanawha County but was expanded to include a section of Putnam County this year.
Both Walters and Martin are the sons of current lawmakers. Martin, a 35-year-old Poca resident, is the son of Delegate Helen Martin, D-Putnam, and the late Delegate Dale Martin. Walters, 26, of Nitro is the son of Delegate Ron Walters, R-Kanawha.
All four candidates said they would work to improve the state's economic climate, education system and infrastructure.
Candidates acknowledged the state's highway system lacks adequate funding, and they favored diverting money from other areas of the budget to shore up the road fund.
Carmichael said he was absolutely opposed to raising the gas tax to solve the problem.
"This government is already too big, it spends too much money and we're overtaxed as businesses and people in this state," he said. "The extent to which we enable people to keep more of their hard-earned money will foster capitalism here and revenue and we will see growth."
Bright said he also opposed increasing taxes or fees to shore up the fund. He said the state should consider tapping its Rainy Day Fund to help fund road construction and maintenance.
"I think we need to prioritize what we're going to do with the money we have available," Bright said. "I'm not sure we need to have an $850 million Rainy Day Fund. I don't think it needs to be close to a billion dollars; I don't think it should be that much."
Walters said West Virginia needs to consider more non-traditional ways to fund highway spending. He cited an example in Kentucky where corporations like Kentucky Fried Chicken were allowed to sponsor highway maintenance projects.
"Thinking outside the box like that — that's the kind of things we should be doing for our roads," Walters said.

Senate panel OKs $49 billion energy 'stimulus' plan
WASHINGTON--A Senate panel approved major portions of the Democrats' "stimulus" bill on Tuesday over objections from Republicans that debate had been squelched and not even one hearing had been held on the topic.
"The goal of this package is to find ways to stimulate the private sector through public-sector spending," said Committee Chair Daniel Inouye (D-Hawaii). "We have no interest in enlarging the federal bureaucracy."
Yet a failure to act, Inouye said, could result in economic problems for years to come.

Specificity / Sensitivity
UCHL1 Antibody detects endogenous levels of total UCHL1 protein.
Source / Purification
Polyclonal antibodies are produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Asp110 of human UCHL1 protein. Antibodies are purified by peptide affinity chromatography.
Protein ubiquitination and deubiquitination are reversible processes catalyzed by ubiquitinating enzymes (UBEs) and deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) (1,2). DUBs are categorized into 5 subfamilies: USP, UCH, OTU, MJD, and JAMM. UCHL1, UCHL3, UCHL5/UCH37, and BRCA-1-associated protein-1 (BAP1) belong to the UCH family of DUBs, which all posses a conserved catalytic domain (UCH domain) of about 230 amino acids. UCHL5 and BAP1 have unique extended C-terminal tails. UCHL1 is abundantly expressed in neuronal tissues and testes, while UCHL3 expression is more widely distributed (3,4). Although UCHL1 and UCHL3 are the most closely related UCH family members with about 53% identity, their biochemical properties differ in that UCHL1 binds monoubiquitin and UCHL3 shows dual specificity toward both ubiquitin (Ub) and NEDD8, a Ub-like molecule. In particular, UCHL3 functions as a Ub hydrolase involved in the processing of both Ub precursors and ubiquitinated substrates, generating free monomeric Ub. This is accomplished through the ability of UCHL3 to recognize and hydrolyze isopeptide bonds at the C-terminal glycine of either Ub or NEDD8 (5-7). Recent functional studies have identified UCH-L3 as a critical regulator of adipogenesis through its ability to promote IGF-IR and insulin receptor signaling (8). Furthermore, UCHL3 has been shown to promote deubiquitination, recycling, and cell surface expression of the epithelial sodium channel (9).

According to an Engadget exclusive, Apple brought a new specification for optical port connection to Intel who, after some heated back and forth, has produced Light Peak:
Based on what we've learned, Apple will introduce the new standard for its systems around Fall 2010 in a line of Macs destined for back-to-school shoppers -- a follow-up to the "Spotlight turns to notebooks" event, perhaps. Following the initial launch, there are plans to roll out a low-power variation in 2011, which could lead to more widespread adoption in handhelds and cellphones. The plans from October 2007 show a roadmap that includes Light Peak being introduced to the iPhone / iPod platform to serve as a gateway for multimedia and networking outputs. While the timing doesn't line up, a low-powered Light Peak sounds like the kind of technology that would be perfect for a device with a need for broad connectivity but limited real estate for ports... like a tablet.
Can one port rule -- and replace -- them all? Do we want to kiss our USB/FireWire, VGA/DVI/DisplayPort, Ethernet, and all other connectors goodbye and replace them with a single, standardized optical cable? Check out Engadget's full post for more, then let us know what you think.
yes please. i would love to replace the insane number of different ports and cables with one optical port. cannot happen soon enough.
This sounds really cool. Optical has its problems, but it is far less power hungry than wires, and the bandwidth is astoundingly wide and tunable.
But I wonder if the single connector idea will hold up for long. Seems unlikely. Connectors multiply like rabbits for reasons, mostly due to limited insight in the development phase. There are economic reasons too, as manufacturers seek to differentiate products to gain market share.
A industry DO-OVER would be pretty welcome at this point. We could then start all over re-wiring our buildings optically and tearing out all that copper (phone lines, and ethernet, and obsoleted fiber).
We won't get rid of ALL wires or get down to a single connector just yet. No one has figured out how to re-charge batteries optically, although wireless charger technology does exist.
I would expect the RIAA is catatonic over this development and will start early lobbying to plug the light-hole, just like they want to plug the analog-hole.
Another Apple innovation that will make their line of gadgets stand out amongst the other - low life - brands...
that would be great. it would be cool though if it was built in and could "pop out" with an extending cord. for macbooks only though. then you couldnt forget it and be screwed
i googled this, noone mentions anything other than intel being involved, likely apple and other companies will all introduce this simultaneously. Apparently Sony is on board as well so I am sure everyone will have it. The transfer rates of large files over USB are horrible, so I am glad that something will come out to improve it. Now if only we could get 10Gbits per sec wirelessly lol
This is just another cool idea, among a long list of others, that proves that Apple practices what it preaches when it says - "Think Different!"
It also shows how, as I will point out next Monday on my own little blog, just what an immense impact Apple has, continues to have, and, no doubt, will continue to play in the overall future world of tech!
The physical keyboard junkies won't like this at all. They'll no doubt prefer keeping their cluster-ƒu©k of cables on their desks so they can feel them and occasionally move them out of the way.
Love the website, but why are there so many typos here. It seems like most of the articles have typos. Here, the title isn't a clear sentence. Don't ban me from the website please, I check you guys out all day.
Keep experimenting instead of adopting a standard now. Just another excuse to by another iPhone. Pathetic, Apple
The world converges on wireless...and people get excited about, yup, MORE wires!! Sheep.
Oh and the typos? "Physical keyboards" help avoid those.
It was only a matter of time before all of the wires and ports became universal. Although this is only temporary because the future will be completely wireless - even power. Google it, you'll see.
What does your comment have to do with the technology under discussion?
Optical keyboards are more troublesome than radio ones. Optical requires line of site. Radio doesn't. Any stray coffee cup shuts down optical links. USB/Bluetooth will still be required for wireless keyboards.
But this has nothing to to with removing cables from keyboards. Or removing cables at all. Its all about different cables and faster speeds.
Light Peak is the code-name for a new high-speed optical cable technology designed to connect your electronic devices to each other.
Still the same number of cables... zero or one.
the future will be completely wireless – even power. Google it, you'll see.
No, it won't. Even the so called wireless power chargers need to be plugged in. You might not need to plug in the 2014 Iphone, but you will still have to schlep around your charger.
No, I wasn't referring to the subject of optical keyboards at all. I was just making light of the fact that those who prefer not to simplify their lives with touch iPhone keyboards (and needing to feel them) would also prefer not to simplify things with Light Peak technology.
It was only meant as a joke aimed at those afraid of change. Nothing to do with computer keyboards.
Sorry... I can see now how my comment can be taken another way. Just my warped sense of humor.
Sounds very interesting and commpelling. I know I've been on a mission to eliminate all cables whenever possible. I like a very clean desktop, for instance. Apple has a history of pioneering what seem to be fringe technologies early, which become widely accepted (see FireWire, 802.11i, etc...)
Why develope this? Why Not using the MOST Standard? It's fast, It's opticall and in use since Years in many Million Cars for Multimedia Data like Video, Audio...

Daniel Robert Schlereth (born May 9, 1986) is an American professional baseball pitcher in the Pittsburgh Pirates organization. He has played in MLB for the Arizona Diamondbacks and the Detroit Tigers.
Early years[edit]
Schlereth was born in Anchorage, Alaska, before moving to Highlands Ranch, Colorado. He is a graduate of Highlands Ranch High School. During his senior year, he struck out a school record 19 batters in a single game. He was named to the top 50 All-Star game players his senior year. He also played quarterback for the football team and broke the school rushing record in a single season by a QB and had the longest run from scrimmage in school history, 96 yards. He was named Colorado Gatorade Offensive Player of the Year his senior season.[1]
College career[edit]
Schlereth attended UNLV for one season as a member of the baseball team, but did not appear in any games. He then transferred to the University of Arizona, where he pitched for three seasons. During his time at Arizona, he pitched alongside former Detroit Tigers teammate Ryan Perry.
Professional career[edit]
Arizona Diamondbacks[edit]
Schlereth was drafted by the Oakland Athletics in the 8th round of the 2007 Major League Baseball Draft, but did not sign. He then was drafted by the Arizona Diamondbacks 26th overall in the 2008 Major League Baseball Draft.[2] He made his major league debut in a relief appearance against the Atlanta Braves on May 29, 2009, throwing a perfect inning.
Detroit Tigers[edit]
On December 9, 2009 Schlereth, along with Max Scherzer were traded to the Detroit Tigers as part of a three team trade that brought Ian Kennedy and Edwin Jackson to the Diamondbacks.[3] Schlereth spent the first half of the 2010 season with the Toledo Mud Hens, posting a 2.83 ERA and 45 strikeouts. He was called up by the Tigers on July 2, 2010 to replace Fu-Te Ni in the roster who was sent down 2 days earlier.[4] On August 15, 2011, Schlereth gave up Jim Thome's 600th home run against the Twins at Comerica Park. On November 30, 2012, the Tigers non-tendered Schlereth's contract, making him a free agent.[5]
Baltimore Orioles[edit]
On December 19, 2012, Schlereth was signed to minor league deal with the Baltimore Orioles with an invitation to spring training.[6]
Pittsburgh Pirates[edit]
Schlereth signed a minor league deal with the Pittsburgh Pirates on December 18, 2013.
Schlereth's father, Mark, was a professional football player who spent twelve seasons in the NFL with the Washington Redskins and Denver Broncos, and was a starting guard on three Super Bowl championship teams.[7] The elder Schlereth was born and raised in Anchorage and played college football at Idaho; he is currently an NFL analyst on ESPN.
Schlereth was married on November 14, 2010, to his longtime girlfriend, Breanne Workman, a collegiate gymnast at Arizona.
Schlereth predominantly is a two pitch pitcher. He features a high 70s curveball and a low 90s fastball [8]

Cheltenham: conditions are drying out and temperatures are rising
PICTURE: Alan Crowhurst/Getty ImagesCheltenham going good to soft, good in places
THE Cheltenham Festival looks set to start on ground described as good to soft, good in places after the dry spell at the course continued overnight.
The going dried to good in places on Monday afternoon and conditions on the Old course, used on Tuesday and Wednesday, remain the same for the opening day.
Clerk of the course Simon Claisse said: "I think the course will ride a little bit tacky today, because we have had so much rain for such a long period of time.
"We're delighted with conditions and we have always cautioned that if we got a dry spell we would dry out relatively quickly despite all the rain we've had."
With no rain falling at the course for over a week and temperatures getting warmer the possibility of watering has emerged. However, Claisse on Tuesday morning maintained his stance that it remained unlikely.
"What will be interesting this week is how much more it dries out over the next four days," he said. "While it's unlikely we'll water if there was any concern about any of the ground becoming good to firm we would make sure that didn't happen."
Day one temperatures should reach 12-13C and there might be sunny spells in the afternoon.
The going on the cross-country course remained good to soft, soft in places, while the New course, where Thursday and Friday's races will be run, stayed good to soft.
Tuesday going report
Cheltenham: Good to soft, good in places
Sedgefield: Good to soft, soft in places

Delta's Abraham Connection is closer to its goal of building a local homeless shelter after receiving a donation last week from the Delta County Board of Realtors.
Abraham Connection president Cheryl Oeltjenbruns explained that the shelter and homeless advocacy group has its sights set on establishing a 4,000-square-foot shelter facility for single men, single women, and families.
The $577 donation from the Delta County Board of Realtors puts Abraham Connection halfway toward raising the funds it believes will be needed to establish the shelter, Oeltjenbruns said.
Others on hand for the event were Abraham Connection board member and realtor Bert Sibley; Debbie Laity, board of realtors president-elect; and, making the check presentation, Nancy Wood, board president.
Wood explained money for the donation was generated by actual real estate sales transactions in this area. When a buyer's earnest money is put into "escrow," it accrues a small amount of interest during the time until closing. Language in the standard sales agreement certifies agreement of buyer and seller that any interest accruing on the earnest money can go to "a fund established for the purpose of providing affordable housing to Colorado residents."
In Colorado, that fund is known as the Colorado Association of Realtors Housing Opportunity Fund (CARHOF). CARHOF collects interest on real estate trust accounts and contributions from realtors and affiliates. Funds are donated to organizations that provide housing and related services for moderate to low-income Coloradoans. Seventy percent of the revenue collected goes back to the community from which it was generated, and each local association determines which organizations to fund in their community.

Bikini Waxes for Tween Sleepaway Camp: Yay or Nay?
June 11, 2012
by Kate Goodin
© iStockphoto
Things on an average 12-year-old's sleepaway camp packing list: Sunscreen? Check. Bathing Suit? Check. Bikini Wax? Wait, what?
Yes, reports The New York Times, spa appointments, including waxes, hair treatments and facials, are being booked to prep tween girls for sleepaway camp. Elizabeth Harrison, a New York City mom quoted in the article, says taking her 12-year-old daughter for a full leg wax and moderate bikini wax is "about grooming and cleanliness."
Plus: Is Three Too Young for a Mani/Pedi?
New Jersey mom Jill Greenspan is taking her 11-year-old to the salon for a $250 hair treatment, so she won't have to worry about blow-drying her hair at camp: "It's just one less thing she has to stress about."
Makeup entrepreneur Bobbi Brown said, in defense of moms taking their tweens to the spa, that "if she's going to be in a bunk with all these girls, and she feels insecure because she hasn't taken care of the hair on her lip or her legs, you know what? You do whatever you can do to make her feel good when she gets there."
Plus: What to Expect When Puberty Hits
No parent wants their child to feel out of the loop or insecure, but how does this jibe with a susceptibility to burns on thinner-skinned tweens—pointed out by a dermatologist to the Times—or the exposure to chemicals from treatments at any early age?
What would you do if your tween wanted a pre-camp wax or spa treatment?

Author and illustrator Maurice Sendak, whose classic children's book Where the Wild Things Are became a perennial and award-winning favorite for generations of children, died Tuesday. He was 83.
Sendak appeared on Fresh Air with Terry Gross several times over the years. In 1989, he told Terry Gross that he didn't ever write with children in mind — but that somehow what he wrote turned out to be for children nonetheless.

Voters in Indiana, Wisconsin and North Carolina on Tuesday will decide the outcome of battles many see as proxy wars going into the fall elections.
-- In Indiana, voters will determine the fate of six-term Republican Sen. Richard Lugar, 80, a respected legislator who has run afoul of Tea Party activists.
-- In Wisconsin, they'll pick a Democrat from a field of four whose aim it will be to oust anti-union Republican Gov. Scott Walker in a June recall election prompted by his slashing of collective bargaining rights.

iTunes 11 is available for download, here is a look at what is new
Functionally the most visible enhancements are convenient. The Remote app has been updated allowing control of iTunes 11 or Apple TV using an iPhone, iPad or iPod touch over Wi-Fi. The MiniPlayer has been updated as well, packing a lot of functionality into a tight little package. While browsing through artists, you can access a gallery of images of those artists that may or may not be a part of the albums. It is a neat feature that adds a new dimension to the artists that make their music available on iTunes.
While the user interface is totally new, it is not unintuitive, and for those that have been using the application on Windows systems, the overall performance appears to have been improved. Syncing with the iPhone or other iDevice is the same as it has always been. True to Apple's form though, there will certainly be some incremental updates to the program now that it has been rolled out to the masses.
With the deeper integration with iCloud and the reality that iOS users are not required to use iTunes with their devices, the program is not necessarily a "must have," but it does have its uses when migrating a lot of content or performing back-ups. Click the source link below to download the newest iTunes.

Apple really loves gray. Can Apple just give it some colors or themes..
6. asulect (Posts: 130; Member since: 27 Aug 2012)
Why do you think Apple iphones are Black and White only? When you mix the two color, it becomes grey.
7. joaolx (Posts: 326; Member since: 16 Aug 2011)
It does show colors when you click on an album. It displays the colors depending on the the album, like pic 3.

13. T12RYK (Posts: 98; Member since: 10 Jun 2011)
I really like the new version of iTunes, its not as slow and had only frozen a couple of times so far but I like the new Album view, mini player and Up-Next!
Nice update Apple! Hope they put of these features on the the Music Player on the iPhone and iPad too!!
18. TalkingTechy (Posts: 97; Member since: 05 Dec 2011)
+1 to that!
They really need the UpNext on the Music app. After playing with it on the Remote app for AppleTV, I can't live my music-listening life without it.

cute.... but im annoyed with syncing my iPod on iTunes!

Use SharePod instead.

I downloaded it yesterday and it seems to have gotten faster now, but last night it kept freezing and force closing on me. It works a lot better on the macs then the Windows though; it doesn't even fit properly on my windows laptop all the time when I have it in full size.
Anyone know if you can set a default color when you open an album? Because I don't like all the different colors you can have.
19. TalkingTechy (Posts: 97; Member since: 05 Dec 2011)
Love the new interface, and the UpNext feature is extremely well implemented on iTunes as well as on AppleTV with iTunes Match.
Need UpNext now for the Music app on iPhone and iPad!!

About andrew_duane
Another silly attempt to micro-manage by specific technology, in an area where technologies change on a monthly basis. The rules against texting for example.... how about my phone which can text hands-free (voice control)? How about sending email? Twitter/Facebook updates? Thumbs up/down on Pandora? Touching the screen to see what time it is?
As for HUDs, my car can have one factory installed? Several makers are experimenting with HUDs to give important information. Will this be banned too? Will we need a lawyer to interpret whatever legal language comes out to tell us?
I'd sigh and say "my tax dollars at work" but it hardly seems like it's working, now does it?
"The biggest obstacle to curbing grand juries (much less eliminating them) is the government itself."
Well, there is that pesky fifth amendment:
"No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger"
I am surprised that no one has (yet) suggested "time of ... public danger" as a convenient way around it.
It seems to me that the gag orders are self-defeating.
If you didn't get asked for help: "No, we did not get a government request"
If you *did* get asked for help: "We can neither confirm nor deny that we got a government request"
You didn't confirm or deny it or talk about it, but you said yes anyway.
It's simple the "Kid's Menu" section of the grown-up NSA surveillance offerings.

Since he's almost my district in NH, I looked him up on the state legislature website. I found his set of bills sponsored:
In general, it's a reasonable set of "privacy" related items: pulling SS#'s off court documents, refusing federal ID requirements, etc. This one is just out of left field though. Not sure what he is trying to accomplish.
To send him mail, get to his home page at:

Did anyone else do the math on that "160 hours of flight time since January 2011"? Two drones, times two years, that's 40 hours per year per drone, or less than 1 hour per week. Given what these things cost, you'd expect they'd be in the air as much as possible. Of course, it could just be 160 hours they are willing to fess up to.....

Our Price: $570.90
Add to cart to estimate shipping cost
Guns can only be shipped to a location within the USA that holds an FFL (Federal Firearms License) - this can be your local gun shop, pawn shop, sporting goods store, etc. Your local gun dealer will then handle the transfer of the firearm to you.
Please ensure that you have familiarized yourself with the process before placing a gun order:
The smallest back strap is integrated in the Glock MBS frame reducing the trigger distance of the standard size frame by approximately .08 in. The medium back strap adds approximately .08 in. - equaling the size of a standard frame - and the large back strap increases trigger distance by a total of approximately .16 in. The magazine release catch of the Gen4 is reversible and enlarged. The reversible magazine catch allows users to switch the catch to the left or right side of the pistol with no additional parts. Internally, the original recoil spring has been replaced with a dual recoil spring assembly. The dual recoil spring assembly noticeably reduces the felt recoil while simultaneously increasing the life span of the assembly. Additionally, the Gen4 has a Rough Textured Frame (RTF) surface designed to enhance grip traction and is present on the frame as well as the interchangeable back straps.

Summer scenes 2012: Hot spots in NYC to check out
Discover three summer scenes in New York and get the scoop on what's happening from people we found at these hot spots.
Tue Jul 17 2012
Looking for somewhere to hang out this summer? We visited three hot spots—postwork outdoor food destination Hester Nights, boardwalk bites emporium Rockaway Beach Club and the new McCarren Park Pool—to check out the scenes.
RECOMMENDED: Get outdoors in NYC
Rockaway Beach Club
This Queens beach is a popular city escape, due in no small part to the three concession buildings housing 11 vendors spread over 30 blocks of boardwalk. Take a break from cooling off in the ocean, watching the surfers or building sand castles (there's a competition on Saturday July 21, 2012 at Beach 106th St; noon–5pm; free) with New England–style seafood at the Lobster Joint (Beach 97th St), Venezuelan empanadas from Caracas (Beach 106th St) or tacos at Rockaway Taco (Beach 96th St). Once it's late afternoon, retire to the shaded picnic tables by the cluster of booths at Beach 96th Street, order a pitcher of Bud Light or Blue Point Summer Ale ($14) from Low Tide Bar and wait for the evening's entertainment (dates vary; visit rockawaybeachclub.com). Next up: a night of swing dancing (Saturday July 21, 2012 6–10pm)—Natalie Gavilanes
Boardwalk between Beach 74th and 106th Sts, the Rockaways, Queens.

A great love story, everyone wants one. Hanah & Michael Lim have one, both figuratively & literally! Hanah & Michael met on a blind date, both falling head first only to figure out the timing wasnt quite right for them. Fast forward to 2 years later, the phone magically rings & an engagement on Mount Kilimanjaro later and as they say, the rest is history! I should apologize up front for the length of today's feature, but I wont! Between the immense amount of terrific details & Orange County wedding photographer Matthew Morgan Photography gorgeous gift for story telling through imagery, it simply felt unjust to whittle down the story... I mean we are telling a love story here! Both Hanah & Michael are English majors as well as high school teachers, a love of books & a theme of a love story was the perfect choice for their wedding day! Armed with willing friends & family while surrounding themselves with super creative people, the couple was able to pull off a truly gorgeous DIY wedding, all on a modest teacher's salary. Blending literary elements with a garden like vibe, the stage was set with books upon books serving as table numbers & signage, invitations & programs in the form of books, library card style notebooks for guests & so much more. Bright yellow flowers & rich green moss beautifully intermixed with their novel counterparts, with areas set in a topiary like style. The result is a dreamy world with words are whispered & heart strings tugged all gorgeously photographed by Orange County wedding photographer Matthew Morgan Photography. Hanah & Michael's wedding is a stunning example of the type of magic that can be pulled off with the right kind of effort!

Whats a gal to do when her hubby is a navy man and she has a deep love of gorgeous southern weddings, merge the two naturally! Hannah Smith & Chris Rowland crafted a dreamy wedding day with a vintage nautical touch on the sprawling grounds of The Ribault Club. Married under a tremendously amazing giant oak tree, hand made chandeliers & crystals swayed in the wind as the couple said their vows. More traditional nautical inspired elements filled the decor, everything from anchors, wood lanterns, monkey knots & netting. Even napkins got the royal navy treatment, being presented in a tall sail like manner! Naturally only a palette which included navy would do with Hannah & Chris selecting coral as the perfect feminine counterbalance. Even though its only the very beginning of March, the Mother of the Year award {or at very least the very top of the short list} goes to Anne Smith, mother of the bride. I dont know what Anne's background is, but Anne created every floral detail you see, the bouquets, centerpieces, even boutonnieres to stunning perfection! As if the florals weren't a huge task in and of themselves, would you believe Anne also did the cake!? Beautifully frosted in a buttercream whipped texture style, the cake was adorned with the very same gorgeous flowers that punctuated the wedding all while being displayed on a spool of thick gauge twine, I die! The idea of a vintage take on a nautical inspired wedding is perfection to me, add in deep navy & vibrant corals along with each wonderful element, not to mention that giant oak, and now I am just getting weak in the knees!

This boudoir session is light & airy, filled with sweet smiles, laughter in the right places & moments with the perfect sensual touch. The addition of the airline pilot uniform is perfection and there truly is something effervescent that takes over when she puts it on. If the soft sensual touches don't get you, the joy of being playful certainly will!
