On October 30, 2010, my daughter and I went to visit Animal Humane Society. We had been talking about adopting a cat for some time and decided it was time to go take a look. It was immediately overwhelming when we entered as there were cages of kittens lined against the wall and a huge room full of adult cats! We didn't know where to begin and my heart sunk as I saw all the little innocent eyes upon us. A volunteer quickly came up to us and welcomed us in. We told her we were looking for a cat or kitten and didn't realize there were going to be so many available. She gently explained that this is the case every year in Minnesota around this time, as the weather gets colder, the shelters get filled with more animals than they can hold. She then suggested we enter the room with all the cats and go over to sit on the bench without interacting with the cats on our way. She said "see who comes over and chooses you." This was very intriguing to me as I never thought about it that way before! After about 2 hours of playing with the cats and kittens, my daughter and I found our next family member. His name was Najii and he is a grey tabby. He was found abandoned in the cold at 6 weeks. He was 2 months old and weighed 1.2 lbs when we took him home. My daughter changed his name to Coco once we brought him home.
He has made a great addition to our family and is now almost full-grown and very healthy! He sleeps with my daughter every night and loves to cuddle and be held. He loves to have his chin rubbed, and also spends a lot of time climbing his cat tower. When he needs a cat nap, he retires to his homemade bed which my daughter made out of the baby blanket we brought him home with. He enjoys taking a few hours out of his day to sun-bathe in the front window and enjoy the view of the outside world. He has enriched our lives by becoming part of our family, and I know we have made a difference by rescuing an animal from the Animal Humane Society. I am grateful for everything the shelters do to help save animals and speak for those who don't have their own voice. And the volunteers who so unselfishly give their time to make a difference in the life of animals are amazing representatives of the good in the world today! You are an inspiration. Thank you from our family, we appreciate all that you do!

This is our booking page for the very popular 'Secret Itineraries' tours of the Doge's Palace, Venice. With each passing year this attraction becomes increasingly popular and it's now common for there to be little or no availability for months in advance.
Given this, we have arranged some very special private guided tours of the Palace. During May, June, July, August and September we have guaranteed availability across a whole range of dates, and, in the hottest months, we have managed to arrange early morning departures so as to spare you the worst of the heat.
Our exclusive fully-guided tour will last about 1 hour and 45 minutes - 45 minutes will be spent in the 'secret' areas with an hour or so spent looking around the incredible Palazzo Ducale itself. Tours are all in English and your group size will never be more than 25 people. Once the tour of the 'secret' areas is over you are free to explore the rest of the Palace by yourself if you so desire.
Should we not have one of our tours on the day you're interested in then please check other dates during your stay - if absolutely nothing is available then we'll let you make an 'on demand' ticket request for a shorter (approximately one hour) tour, but it's unlikely we'll be able to fulfil it.
Simply select the ideal date for your visit using the calendar below. Next, click the green button and our system will automatically present you with the relevant ticket options for that date. Tickets are fully inclusive and are all 'skip the line' tickets.
(Do remember that dates are in European (day-month-year) format)
Simply select the ideal date for your visit by clicking on the calendar to the left.
Once you've selected a date on the calendar we'll show you the tours that are available, one or more of which may be of interest to you.
** Please note that for our pre-booked exclusive tours we're able to offer a 30% discount to all children aged 6 to 14 and all students aged 14 to 25. Please mention this in the 'notes' section during checkout.
We also sell straightforward entrance tickets for the Doge's Palace [link]; please be aware that the standard tickets also include admission to various other museums, whereas the 'Secret Itineraries' tour does not.
[Additional Secret Itineraries Tour links]: Visitor information, Secret Itineraries Tour location map, Google map
The guided tours afford privileged insights into the more secret corners of the palace, rooms and passageways not normally accessible to the visiting public.
Please be aware that the route taken by this tour is often a restricted one, by its very nature. There are numerous steps and small inclines, often quite steep, and many of the passages are small and tight. For these reasons the tour is not for children under the ages of six, for pregnant women or for the disabled.
The tour (in English) is for a maximum of twenty five people, and, for the 'on request' tours starts out at the following times only:
September to June: 09.55 AM, 10.45 AM and 11.35 AM.
July and August: 09.55 AM and 11.35 AM.
These exclusive tours are operative from May to Sept on Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon only:
09.30 AM - Exclusive tour in English (it lasts approx 2hours - it includes also a short visit to Palazzo Ducale).
01.00 PM - Exclusive tour in English (it lasts approx 2hours - it includes also a short visit to Palazzo Ducale).
To reserve tickets for the tour of the Doge's Palace tour, just fill out the booking form, supply us with credit card details, and we'll do the rest. There will be no charge whatsoever until we confirm your reservation. We'll then point you to our secure page, where you can print out your entry voucher. Print it out, take it with you to the Palazzo and present it at the 'group counter' there. As simple as that!
You won't have to join any queues, but nonetheless we'd advise you to arrive 15 minutes before your entry time.
PLEASE NOTE: You must present yourself at the venues at the time specified on your booking voucher - admittance will not be granted at other times.
The ticket includes entrance to the Doge's Palace, where you can remain after the tour. We'd recommend you not book afternoon visits in high summer - the heat can be something to be battled against.
Please also be prepared to show some ID - It is sometimes difficult for Italian officials to understand that not all countries require their citizens to carry ID cards, if indeed they are issued in said countries at all. You will often find that nothing other than a Passport or Driving Licence (with photograph) will suffice.

Nicki Minaj Responds To Steven Tyler's Criticism, Says He Made "Racist" Comments
Nicki Minaj also says Steven Tyler's upset about no longer being on "American Idol" and adds that she will get him a shirt that reads, "No Coloreds Allowed."
As a judge on American Idol, Nicki Minaj has already faced some criticism from a fellow judge in Mariah Carey. Now, she is responding to criticism from a former judge, Steven Tyler. During an interview with MTV, Tyler had comments about the current judges that Minaj was offended by.
"I know that they've got something going on on the judges' panel, [and] it shouldn't be that, it should be just the opposite: They should have something going on, which is called 'camaraderie,'" Tyler said. "They should have something going on so thick and beautiful that they can lay it over the new talent that's trying to birth itself. It needs to be birthed, not judged by 'entertainment' factors, it needs to be judged by people that [are] honest, true, that have the 'it' factor. Not the 'it' factor because they can fight. The fuck is that all about?"
He also went on to add more.
"If it was Bob Dylan, Nicki Minaj would have had him sent to the cornfield! Whereas, if it was Bob Dylan with us, we would have brought the best of him out, as we did with Phillip Phillips. Just saying."
Minaj was not pleased with these comments. In a few statements on her Twitter account, Minaj countered Tyler's remarks by saying that he made racist comments.
Steven Tyler said I would have sent Bob Dylan to a cornfield??? Steven, you haven't seen me judge one single solitary contestant yet!
— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) November 26, 2012
I understand you really wanted to keep your job but take that up with the producers. I haven't done anything to you. That's a racist comment
— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) November 26, 2012
You assume that I wouldn't have liked Bob Dylan??? why? black? rapper? what? go fuck yourself and worry about yourself babe.
— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) November 26, 2012
LOL lets make him a shirt that says "No Coloreds Allowed" then escort him down 2 Barbara Walters so he can tell how he was threatened w/guns

Since the late 1980s, Cincinnati's homeless population has included a growing number of families with children
Politics is often a game of strategy, and an area anti-tax group is well-known for taking the offensive on most issues it advocates.

Residents will get a chance to ask Cincinnati Police Chief James Craig some questions at a public meeting this week.
Craig, who was sworn in as the city's 13th police chief in August, will be the featured speaker at the annual meeting of Citizens for Civic Renewal (CCR). The session will be held from 6-8 p.m. Wednesday at Kingsgate Marriott Conference Center in Corryville, near the University of Cincinnati.
Some campaign workers for independent presidential candidate Ralph Nader are conceding their choice for the Oval Office probably doesn't have a realistic chance at being elected. But they say Nader's platform of issues is what's truly important and are urging progressive voters to pressure the winners in this November's elections into pursuing his agenda.
Ineffective. Fiscally irresponsible. Overcrowded.
Those are some of the words used by reform advocates to describe Ohio's criminal justice system. As part of its effort to publicize disparities in the state's prisons, the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of Ohio will bring its Freedom Tour here on Dec. 6.
Connecticut will soon join the list of states that have ended the use of capital punishment.
In an 86-63 vote, legislators in Connecticut's House of Representatives passed the bill Wednesday night. The state Senate approved the measure April 5, in a 20-16 vote.
Gov. Dannel P. Malloy, a Democrat, has indicated he will sign the bill when it reaches his desk, probably sometime this week. A similar bill was vetoed by then-Gov. Jodi Rell, a Republican, in 2009.
Connecticut's law is prospective in nature, and won't affect the sentences of the 11 people currently on the state's death row.
In the last five years, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York and Illinois have repealed the death penalty, according to CNN. California voters will decide the issue in November.
Other states that have abolished capital punishment are Alaska, Hawaii, Iowa, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, North Dakota, Rhode Island, Vermont, West Virginia and Wisconsin.
Meanwhile, a man who spent 21 years on Ohio's death row until he was exonerated in 2010 will speak tonight at a forum in Clifton.
Joe D'Ambrosio will discuss his experience and why he believes the death penalty should be scrapped at 6:30 p.m. at the St. Monica-St. George Parish Newman Center, located at 328 W. McMillan St. D'Ambrosio will be joined by the Rev. Neil Kookoothe, a Roman Catholic priest who worked to get him released.
D'Ambrosio was wrongfully convicted of the 1988 murder of Anthony Klann in Cleveland. Cuyahoga County prosecutors withheld 10 pieces of evidence that would have exonerated D'Ambrosio at his trial and implicated another suspect in the crime, a judge ruled in March 2010.
D'Ambrosio is the 140th Death Row exoneration in the United States since 1973 and the sixth in Ohio.
This week's Porkopolis column looks at a report from Amnesty International about the use of capital punishment throughout the world, and how the United States is one of the only industrialized nations that still condones the practice.

What Brian Greene did for string theory, Sean Carroll—a leading biologist—does for Evo Devo.
Evo Devo is evolutionary developmental biology, the third revolution in evolutionary biology. The first was marked by the publication of The Origin of Species. The second occurred in the early twentieth century, when Darwin's theories were merged with the study of genetics. Now the insights of Evo Devo are astonishing the biology world by showing how the endless forms of animals—butterflies and zebras, trilobites and dinosaurs, apes and humans, are made and evolved.Perhaps the most surprising finding of Evo Devo is the discovery that a small number of primitive genes led to the formation of fundamental organs and appendages in all animal forms. The gene that causes humans to form arms and legs is the same gene that causes birds and insects to form wings, and fish to form fins; similarly, one ancient gene has led to the creation of eyes across the animal kingdom. Changes in the way this ancient tool kit of genes is used have created all the diversity that surrounds us.
Sean Carroll is the ideal author to lead the curious on this intellectual adventure—he is the acknowledged leader of the field, and his seminal discoveries have been featured in Time and The New York Times. 16 pages of color and 100 black-and-white illustrations

Comment: Re:Kill capitol punishment! Kill it dead! (Score 1) 1038
But... Our system right now is so paranoid against executing the falsely convicted, that stays of execution are granted when there is the faintest whiff of innocence. Prisoners are kept for decades, just to avoid wrongful execution.
Hahaha. In the United States? No. Ever heard of the Innocence Project?
In Texas? Hell no! We still have a guy on death row even though the judge who sentenced him was sleeping with the prosecutor (Charles Hood).
Until there are consequences/punishments for prosecutorial overreach, we can't even think about executing convicts.

ORIENTATION AND CONTINUING EDUCATION OF BOARD MEMBERS March 16, 1976 Orientation - The responsibility for orientation of new Board members should be shared by the Board and the administration with the Rector and President involved in working out a specific program for each new member. The avail- ability of time, the experience and interest of a new member will influence the most appropriate activities to be included in a planned program. The implementation of such a program should rest with the President who may delegate this responsibility to an appropriate staff member. However, such staff member would report back to the President who would also follow-up with the Board members to evaluate the success of the program. Activities expected to be most helpful include: 1. Invitation from President and Rector to a new member for a conference (a luncheon would be appropriate and the President and Rector can meet either together or separately). 2. Supply new member with appropriate reading materials about the University including by-laws, appropriate publications, copies of several minutes from Board meetings, financial data and program descriptions. This can be done in stages so as not to overwhelm the new member. 3. Visitation to the campuses. 4. Conferences with other staff members. 5. Visitation to committee meetings (sometimes it is profitable if it is done before a specific committee assignment is made to the new member) . 6. Attendance at state, regional and national meetings. 7. Give new member the opportunity to indicate his knowledge about and impressions of the University. It is sometimes helpful if he states his image of the University before and after an orientation program. 8. Review with new member Master Plan for physical development of the University. -2 9. Explain the relationship of University Governance to other governmental bodies of control. 10. Extend an invitation to the new member to attend a variety of University functions. 11. Seek information from the new member concerning activities that will meet his needs and interest. 12. Early in the orientation process seek the advice and suggestions of the new member since as a new member he may have a high degree of objectivity in looking at some of the University's problems. Make the member feel needed! Continuing In-Service Training - The program for in-service training should be built on an effective comprehensive orientation program. Consequently, it should prove helpful if present Board members would review the activities suggested for orientation to determine to what extent some of them would be helpful to present Board members. There are many activities that can possibly be a part of the on-going in-service training program. On most Boards there will be a rather wide spread of expe- rience and understanding that relates to University Governance. Consequently, some activities and programs will be directed at all members and other activities will be suggested to be used on a selective basis in harmony with individual interest and experience: 1. The Board meeting should be planned not only as an action session, but also should be planned to provide pertinent information. When agendas are sent out accompanied by voluminous documents, the administration should include a brief digest of any document of more than a few pages that relates to decision making at that particular meeting. 2. Committee meetings can serve a very useful purpose in deepening Board members understanding of the University's problems and challenges. This function should be considered in planning committee meetings. 3. Participation in state, regional and national meetings. 4. Subscription to appropriate magazines and referral of inter- esting articles and printed materials that relate to the University and its relationship to what is happening on the national scene. 3 5.

U.S. prices for tinplate are set to rise after the first of the year, but a change in pricing policy by major producers leaves many customers questioning how sharp the increases will be.
Historically, major tinplate producers—notably Mittal Steel USA Inc., Chicago, and U.S. Steel Corp., Pittsburgh—have announced across-the-board increases late in the year for the following year.
This year, however, no such announcements have been made.
Instead, the mills are going to buyers and negotiating price increases on an individual basis—meaning some buyers are being asked to pay increases of as little as 2 percent while others are being asked to pay nearly 20 percent more.
The disparity lies in mills' attempts to bring more order to tinplate pricing, market sources said. Two years ago, tinplate customers with multiyear contracts in place refused to pay surcharges implemented by the mills. Others without such contracts paid the surcharges, which last year were rolled into base prices.
This year, the mills seem to be trying to level the playing field.

What goes together better than ketchup and fries? Although it'd be hard to argue that anything is, Jesus' perfect love and you absolutely go better together. 1 Peter 4:8 tells us that Jesus' love "covers a multitude of sins". When we give our lives to Christ and let Him cover our lives with His love, we come a perfect combination.

Hopefully those stories about Crash wanting to stay are true. I have to think we'll show him the money. He's the lynchpin of the team. Plus, he's just hitting his prime. Hopefully a 4/40 keeps him here.
Sweating bullets. Did you guys see the charlotte.com reporter saying a source is telling him Crash's house is up for sale? Gawd I hope that's BS.
Dallas worries me too. Cuban will spend anything to get what he wants.

How do you plan on doing most of your holiday shopping this year?Don't buy everything online!Submitted by Guest_Store_Owner (not verified) on Mon, 11/12/2012 - 11:08am.
Buying things you can find locally, on the internet, negatively affects the local economy. You can't complain about your finances and then shop online. Your income is influenced by the local economy. Buying items online moves money out of the local economy. Your savings are not as great as you think. You still owe sales tax, even if it is not collected by online company. Support your local businesses! »
I would love to buy my stuffSubmitted by Guest1971 (not verified) on Mon, 11/12/2012 - 5:12pm.
I would love to buy my stuff locally. Last Christmas I attempted to buy several gifts from local stores and could not get anyone to help me - I had questions about the features & prices of the items as the displays were not organized and I could not tell what item went with which price tag. I got frustrated and went home and ordered what I wanted to buy from Amazon - all of the descriptions were right there, the price was clear & the stuff arrived on my doorstep in 2 days time. I will try once again to shop locally - if your store has items in stock & if I can questions answered when I have them my money will stay in the local economy. If you deliver crappy service - back to the internet I go. »
It's all about savings, not "your" economy! I buy where I want.Submitted by Guesttenheimer (not verified) on Mon, 11/12/2012 - 12:04pm.
I can usually save upwards of 30% on nearly any purchase I make online and in many cases much more. I don't have to pay shipping, tax or waste $4/gal gas money to go looking for it. »
Tax free...it's for me!Submitted by Guesttenheimer (not verified) on Fri, 11/09/2012 - 12:03pm.
Since the great "Annointed One" just got another term in office, I'll buy everything I can get my hands on from online sources that are tax-free. I'm sick of paying taxes only to have him give it away to those who don't work, are here illegally and don't care! I'll chip away at every penny of paying I have an opp for! That will be one of his next "accomplishments", tax online sales, to go along with his establishment of Gay Marriage and Gun Control. »

Iconic Iceland Attractions
The world-famous Blue Lagoon is conveniently located to the airport, so a dip here on departure or arrival is a must.

I tried changing my Google password and that didn't work.
All responses
Hi Rob,
If you head to Todoist.com and hit the gear icon at the top right corner, choose Settings. Under "Account" at the very bottom there should be a "Delete my Todoist Account" button.

Please let me know if this is not the case.
I am having the same problem. I am trying to delete my account, and I have followed all of the above steps. However, it keeps telling me that my password is not correct so it doesn't let me delete my account. My password is the same as the password that I log in with correct? So how can it not be the right password?
If you have used the GMail Login method to set up your account, please go to https://todoist.com click on the gear icon in the top-right corner to enter Settings -> Account and here, you must first use "Edit" in the "Password" section to set a password for Todoist and then use the link at the bottom to delete your account confirming with the newly set password.

The city of Huber Heights has started a search for its next city manager.
Current City Manager Jim Borland is expected to retire in mid-March — a year after he took over for Gary Adams — and city officials have had preliminary discussions on how the city will proceed with finding his replacement.
The city's Administration Committee met earlier this week, and more talks are expected as the city weighs all of its options, said Councilman Mark Campbell, chair of the committee. Those options could include an application process and reaching out to individuals who may have interest in the position, he said.
"We're looking for someone who has a passion in serving the public and wants to be part of a team," Campbell said. "This is serious business doing work for 40,000 people and making decisions that affect lives not only today but forever."
Borland, 58, said he tentatively plans to retire at the end of the day March 15.
Borland, a Clay Twp. resident, has worked for the city the last nine years in a number of roles — deputy police chief, police chief, public safety director and interim city manager.
"You can't beat Jim," Campbell said. "He's second to none. He has physically hit every rung up the ladder, and earned it. There's a level of credibility to every job he takes on."
Adams resigned last March due to personal reasons after less than a year in the position. Borland was promoted to city manager on a one-year contract with a $130,000 salary, and said at the time he had intentions of retiring when the one-year term expired.
"I've really enjoyed my time here at the city, and it's gone quick," Borland said. "The city has grown and it's moving forward. Our future looks very bright here. We're sitting in a really good spot in Montgomery County along the highway, and we've got everything you need right here in the city. It's a great place to be."
Borland was the interim city manager prior to Adams' arrival in May 2011. He believes the city will find his successor by the time he retires.
"I've got a great staff and council, but I'm ready for retirement now," Borland said. "I've got almost 30 years working in the public sector. I'm ready to kick back and take it easy for a little bit."

Armstead said this was a good example of something he would like to be able to take to the attorney general for a decisive opinion.
But House Judiciary Chairman Tim Miley, D-Harrison, thinks the value of such opinions could be diminished if the attorney general issued too many of them.
"I don't want to see the credibility of the attorney general's office be diminished as a result of any activity that is more political than it is legal," Miley said.
Morrisey said he wants to sit down with Democratic Gov. Earl Ray Tomblin and his environmental regulators to "think through" how to review regulations.
In an interview published over the weekend, Department of Environmental Protection Secretary Randy Huffman was asked about Morrisey's offer to help the DEP more aggressively sue the federal government. Huffman said he was just fine with the lawyers he had and was not sure he needed Morrisey's help.
Senate Judiciary Chairman Corey Palumbo, D-Kanawha, wonders if Morrisey has the authority to issue advisory opinions at the request of rank-and-file legislators.
State law lists executive branch officials who can ask the attorney general for legal advice and then adds "or any other office of the state." But the same part of the law talks specifically about the legislative branches and specifically names only two members of the Legislature who can request advisory opinions: the House speaker and the Senate president.
"That would make me think that (rank and file) legislators cannot request opinions," Palumbo said.
Palumbo also worries Morrisey's plan could overwhelm Morrisey and his staff.
"It could really overburden the AG's office if everyone had their pet issue or two that they require the full legal opinion on," Palumbo said.
Other states more frequently issue advisory opinions. In Virginia, Republican Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli - who endorsed Morrisey in this year's election - generally issues several legal opinions each month, for instance.
Although McGraw does not frequently issue advisory opinions, one of them changed the course of the state's political history.
In 2010, McGraw issued an advisory opinion that said then-Gov. Joe Manchin could call a special election to fill the state's then-vacant U.S. Senate seat. It conflicted with an opinion from Secretary of State Natalie Tennant's Office but made an election inevitable. Manchin ran and won.
Another recent advisory opinion created an awkward encounter earlier this year in the state Supreme Court when two lawyers from the Attorney General's Office were on opposite sides of a case during oral arguments. One was representing the State Election Commission, which was trying to defend a law that McGraw's office had previously said was unconstitutional in a 2011 advisory opinion. The other lawyer from McGraw's office was defending the initial advisory opinion.
Morrisey said he would always look out for the interests of his clients, which are predominantly state agencies.

Marvin windows leaking
It's amazing the ways water can find to get into a house. Could be flashing, could be somewhere in the roof (such as where roof meets chimney, or ????) The 'path of least resistance' taken by water can be more circuitous than one might think.
That said, there might be some flashing missing (or improperly installed) above the windows. Maybe when they installed the windows they took a 'short cut' and 'somehow' left off the flashing.
P.S., are the gutters clear? I've seen where flooded gutters overflow and cause water to cascade to areas that don't normally have problems--but if they aren't flashed (or caulked) properly the problem sure can appear in a hurry.
Water in the house is no fun at all. I hope you have an easy time figuring it out, good luck.
If the window is leaking, check the warranty and call the manufacturer. If the house is leaking, call the contractor. Most people will tell you it was installed wrong or flashed improperly, but I have living proof that these large window manufacturers are capable of supplying defective products. I hope this works for you, I had no luck fixing mine with Kolbe & Kolbe. They still leak and we are in a battle 2 years later. The only ones winning are the attorneys. If interested I have more information on my case at www.leakywindows.com
Good luck,

14. Picture of Psoriatic Arthritis
Psoriatic arthritis is a specific condition in which a person has both psoriasis and arthritis. Psoriatic arthritis is an autoimmune disease, meaning that the immune system is misdirected to cause inflammation of one's own tissues. Rarely, a person can have psoriatic arthritis without having skin psoriasis. Moreover, the arthritis can precede the psoriasis by months or years, or present after years of psoriasis.

Simple, clean image viewer for OSX?
I'd really like a no-frills image viewer that supports Lion full-screen (IE, no interface at all visible), that automatically centers and zooms-to-fit images, and allow flipping between images and preferably also zooming by swipe input on the magic mouse.
Finally, it would be really nice if it has a better zooming filter kernel than just simple plain ole bilinear interpolation. Something like bi-cubic would be nice. Is there any such thing? The three options - that I know of - that OSX offers as standard are all more or less severely lacking; Preview doesn't support flipping between images in a folder without opening all of them at once (you don't wanna do that with hundreds or even thousands of images in a big archive), and has no swipe support either. iPhoto wants you to "import" every picture into a library, which is silly, because they're already all there on the disk. No need to import anything into anything, just show them already. And the quick look feature doesn't support flipping either, although its interface is pretty much ideal; very clean and simple. Exactly what I'd like to see! Is there anything floating about out there that fits at least some of these desires of mine...? Feels silly to have to network share my pictures folder to access it from my Windows PC, so save me from such a curse, please. Thank you very much in advance for any suggestions! |

I currently use Phoenix Slides as image viewer. It doesn't support magic mouse/trackpad gestures, but I like its simplicity.

Thanks for the Phoenix Slides recommendation. I was previously using sequential and it was a bit clunky. This works great...no lag when I'm viewing images off of my network drive...just what I wanted!

I've been looking for a good image viewer and been monitoring some forum threads, but finally found one in the Mac App Store, and registered to post this, may this be helpful to whoever still looking for good image viewer.
it's called Smart Photo Viewer by ArcSoft (or when installed the app is called Photo+) - pretty much just like the image viewer I'm used to in Windows:
There are several others in the App Store, but this one is quite low in price. Alternatively there's the free ToyViewer with basic editing, that is if you don't need it to automatically load all images in the same folder. |

SEPT. 9, 2009 -- Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg today appointed Dr. Dora B. Schriro as Commissioner of the New York City Department of Correction. Dr. Schriro served as Director of the Office of Detention Policy and Planning for the Department of Homeland Security, where she led an overhaul of the nation's immigration detention system.
Previously, she served six years as Director of the Arizona Department of Corrections; led the Missouri Department of Corrections as Director from 1993 to 2001, and served as the City of St. Louis Warden and then Commissioner of Corrections from 2001 to 2003.
Robert |
Francis J. | Thomas |
In both states, she was the first woman to lead the departments and is the only female in the country to head two State correctional systems.
Dr. Schriro, who was born on Staten Island, served in the Koch Administration from 1984 to 1989, first as Assistant to the Deputy Director in the Mayor's Office of Criminal Justice and then as Assistant Commissioner at the City Department of Correction. Dr. Schriro succeeds Martin F. Horn, who resigned the post in July. The Mayor announced the appointment in the Blue Room of City Hall.
"Dr. Schriro brings a distinctive, dynamic style and innovative thinking back home to New York City," said Mayor Bloomberg. "Dr. Schriro's executive experience in overseeing detention systems in the states of Missouri and Arizona make her uniquely qualified to carry on the important work here in New York City, with a clear focus on reducing violence, ensuring inmate and staff safety, while also preparing inmates to transition back into their communities and lives after release."
"It is an honor to join this Administration in their continuing pursuit of excellence and accountability," said Commissioner Schriro. "I am grateful to Mayor Bloomberg for this opportunity, and I look forward to the work ahead at the New York City Department of Correction. I expect it will be challenging, important and rewarding work, and am confident we will continue to contribute in new and meaningful ways to the City's safety and well being."

As Special Advisor to the Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano on Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Detention and Removal, Dr. Schriro focused on how to manage and reduce the significant growth in immigration detention over the last five years. Throughout her 30-year career, she has been involved in sentencing reform, supporting victims and innovative re-entry efforts.
She served for six years as Vice Chair of Missouri's Sentencing Commission and was a founding member of the Vera Institute of Justice's State and Local Sentencing Program. Dr. Schriro has co-led sentencing seminars at St. Louis University and Arizona State University Schools of Law, spearheaded passage of the country's first restorative justice legislation and also has established offices of crime victims' services in the State correctional systems in Missouri and Arizona.
"We are thrilled to welcome Dr. Dora Schriro to lead the Department of Correction and build upon the progress we've made," said Deputy Mayor for Health and Human Services Linda I. Gibbs. "Dr. Schriro's proven record in corrections management and her own goals of keeping New York City's jails as safe as possible, as well as helping those exiting jail make critical transitions back to their communities make her ideal for this challenge."
Dr. Schriro served for nine months in 1984 as Assistant to the Deputy Director in the Office of the Criminal Justice where she supervised the Program Monitoring and Evaluation Unit for state and federally-funded projects, and administered grants associated with these programs.

Richard-- 9/30/32 |
Dr. Schriro, who will begin work on September 21, earned a law degree from St. Louis University, a doctorate from Columbia University, a Master of Science degree from the University of Massachusetts-Boston, and a Bachelor of Arts degree cum laude from Northeastern University. She has taught law, criminal justice, psychology and education courses at the graduate level throughout her career.
Published in the area of re-entry, detention, and supervision, Dr. Schriro has also received accolades for her work over the years. In 1999, as Director of the Missouri Department of Corrections, she received the Michael Francke Award, recognizing her as the top correctional administrator in the United States; the National Governors Association Distinguished Service to State Government Award in 2006; and in 2008, her work in Arizona resulted in the Innovations in American Government Award for the comprehensive pre-release strategy, Getting Ready.
The replacement search was led by Nathan Leventhal, Chairman of the Mayor's Committee on Appointments, and Andrea Shapiro Davis, Special Advisor to the Mayor, who worked closely with both Deputy Mayor Gibbs and Criminal Justice Coordinator John Feinblatt.

Prior to that date, it had been part of a dual agency, the Department of Public Charities and Correction. The more than three dozen other men and women whose names appear on this page, their having served as NYC Correction Commissioners, reflect the diverse and rich history of the City and this Department. They include:
Robert J. Wright was the first to head the agency when it emerged after the dual Dept. of Public Charity and Correction was split (1895/6). He was a member of fusion reform Mayor Walter Strong's cabinet that also included Teddy Roosevelt as Police Commissioner.
Lantry was the first to served as DOC Commissioner when New York became a five-borough City (1898). Lantry also has the distinction of being the only Commissioner to serve twice as head of DOC. He even served once as Fire Commissioner.
Others who saw service directing other NYC agencies include Benjamin Ward and Bernard B. Kerik, each of whom later also served as NYPD head; Katharine Bement Davis, who afterward led the City Parole Commission, and Catherine Abate, Michael P. Jacobson and Martin F. Horn, each of whom had headed Probation before coming to Correction.

Some listed here served as Commissioners --
Among the seven Interim Commissioners, Seitchik served about two and a half weeks, Vierno and Hunter each served a little more than a month, Antonelli and D'Elia about two months plus, Mitchell about two and a half months, and Lanigan about three months total.
The most commissioners to serve in any one year has been three.
In 1933, Robert L. Tudor, William J. Cahill and Wilbur T. Wright headed DOC.
In 1990, James Hunter, George R. Vierno and Allyn Seilaff served.

She headed the agency about a dozen years -- from the start of 1954 through early 1966.
Because Mrs. Kross served so many years, at such a pivotal juncture in the Department's development, and because she left such an enduring legacy at a time when few woman exercised such lasting influence in the public arena, many assume AMK was the Department's first woman Commissioner.
Mrs. Kross wasn't; she was the second. The first was Katharine Bement Davis, Bedford Hills Reformatory superintendent appointed NYC DOC Commissioner in 1914 before women had the right to vote.

Allyn |

The third was Jacqueline McMickens, who rose through the ranks to Commissionership in 1984.
The fourth was Catherine M. Abate named to the DOC post in 1992. She had been Probation Commissioner.
More details about each -- Commissioners Davis, Kross, McMickens, and Abate -- can be accessed by clicking the caption under their respective thumbnail photos above.
Similarly, clicking underlined captions under many of the other Commissioners' thumbnail photos on the page accesses additional information.
