Touchscreen and POS Monitors are used in many business applications today. The technology used in touchscreen monitors and POS monitors helps computers respond more quickly to user input. These types of monitors and displays are commonly used in hospitals, food service establishments, and retail establishments.
Touchscreen displays and POS displays can be equipped with one of these three technologies: surface acoustic wave touch, capacitive touch, and resistive touch. Surface acoustic wave touchscreen technology uses ultrasonic waves to process user input. Touchscreen displays with this technology are typically prone to damage and contaminants. Capacitive touchscreen monitors are equipped with a coating of a conductor material. A user cannot interact with capacitive touchscreen displays through electrically insulating materials such as cloth. Lastly, resistive touchscreen displays are equipped with two layers of electrically-resistive material. This allows resistive touchscreen monitors to respond to input from both fingertips and styluses.
No matter which type of touchscreen or POS monitor you need, you can always trust us. We offer the display devices you need to make your business succeed.

Stiliyan Petrov has been ruled out of Aston Villa's starting lineup for at least two months with a knee injury. While Petrov may not have been at the top of his game for Aston Villa this season, the captain still occupies an essential role on the pitch, and his absence serves to expose the team's greatest weakness: a lack of depth at central midfield.
While Nigel Reo-Coker has regained his spot after Martin O'Neill parted ways with the Villa, the players remaining on the bench don't inspire much confidence. Stephen Ireland came over as makeweight when James Milner went to Manchester City in August, but Ireland is not a like-for-like replacement for the English international and is incapable of replicating his play as a box-to-box midfielder. To put it bluntly, Ireland has no defensive capabilities. It is probable that Steve Sidwell will be selected to replace Petrov, but with Sidwell is just as likely to make a nasty tackle as he is to win the ball.
7500 to Holte author Aaron Campeau writes about Aston Villa's problem with midfield depth:
Aside from that, a club of Villa's size simply must have more quality depth at such a crucial position. Petrov, Reo-Coker and Sidwell are the only players on the squad capable of playing the most important position on the pitch at anything approaching Premier League quality. Fabian Delph should be back before the season is out, but there's no guarantee of his fitness. The club desperately need another option in the center, and if one positive can come from Petrov's injury it would be the people in charge recognizing that.

His name has been added to

by Renée Eve Levie ©
|Bucharest, 14.04.1935: my mother, Erna Levie; my father, Kurt Levie; my brother, Jean Levie
|Frankfurt a/M view of Marktstrasse towards the Römerberg and the town hall
The items listed bellow belong to the bride's dowry:
This meant that the bridegroom added very little to his future bride's dowry, consisting of some furniture and utensils. Not even a stove – there were no refrigerators then – or a dining room set or a tiny couch. No, he was marrying the woman, her complete bedroom, her silver cutlery set for 12, her porcelain dishes, her jewels and, of course, her money. Not bad for a 26 years old handsome Jewish boy, a movie salesman, and a good and obedient son.
My father was a representative for the major movies studios of his time such as, for example, UFA, Germany's greatest film company, RKO, Paramount, Columbia Pictures and Warner Brothers. My mother was the youngest of three daughters. Her mother, my grandmother, died when she was 6 years old of, so my mother told me, unknown causes, and she was raised by her two older sisters, Martha, die Schöne, the Beautiful, and Bella, die Dicke, the Fat. Their father, my grandfather, Adolf Goldberg, was born in Odessa, Russia, and had fled the Pogroms during the 19th century. He finally settled in Frankfurt a/M, where he built a solid business as a
baker and pastry maker. The bakery, located at the Leipziger Straße 26,

As to my father's family Dutch branch some important changes must be included at this point. In my last draft I wrote: "My father's mother, my grandmother, of whom I do not know the first name as I also do not know the name of her husband…" and "I remember vaguely my mother telling me that when the Nazis took power my grandmother went back to Holland with her husband – her four sons stayed in Germany for unknown reasons to this day – from where they were deported to an extermination camp and murdered. So my mother told me once and only once."

The SPERRE System in the Netherlands
The efforts of the Jewish Council (see same page, <http://www.joodsmonument.nl/page/274292/en>) to reduce the number of Jews to be deported were fruitless. The Nazis did, however, allow the Jewish Council to arrange exemptions for Jewish Council staff and others. As soon as the exemption system became known, the Jewish Council was besieged by people hoping to obtain one. The Jewish Council was responsible for selecting the 17,500 staff members to be issued such a stamp. This procedure, and especially the selection criteria applied, were severely criticized after the war on the grounds that the selection was based on nepotism and corruption. In any case, the Sperre system was a highly effective means for the Nazis to divide and conquer. In the course of 1943, each of the exemption lists toppled like a stack of dominoes, as the Nazis proclaimed them invalid. In fact, the lists became an instrument for the Nazis to select certain groups of Jews and their families for deportation.

Then… one day, while my grandmother was out shopping it started to pour cats and dogs, and she had left her umbrella at home. She did not hesitate for a second: she went into a hat shop, asked to use the telephone and dialed the number of the poshest hotel in Frankfurt. The dialogue that followed was as follows: "Frankfurter Hof, Hoffenstäter speaking. Can I help you?"
The third story shows how much my grandmother was one of her kind: The couple Levie had four sons: Siegfried, born on 20-04-1901 in Kassel (D); Kurt, born on 04-11-1902 in Marburg (D); Hellmuth, born on 11-05-1904 in Marburg (D); and Rolf, born on 08-12-1911 in Frankfurt am Main (D). Due to circumstances that I ignore she had rented a room in a boarding house. The only problem was that the landlord only allowed one person per room. Now, everybody knows that to keep four youngsters quiet in a confined space 24/24 is an Herculean task, I would even say an impossible one. Anyway, having heard strange noises upstairs the landlord knocked on Frau Levie's door: "Ah, Herr Schmidt. Good morning, what can I do for you?" Herr Schmidt's tightened his lips in an angry line and answered: "Good morning, Frau Levie. Frau Levie, you know perfectly well that you are not allowed to have visitors in your room. There have been complaints…" My grandmother clasped her hands on her bosom and replied in astonishment: "Me? Visitors? Aber, Herr Schmidt, this is preposterous! The only living soul in this room besides myself is Mäulchen, my cat! Look! There she is on the windowsill. And she is as quiet as a mouse!" The landlord had no choice but to excuse himself and leave. When my grandmother heard Herr Schmidt's footsteps receding away down the stairs and after the door of his apartment was closed with a bang she walked to the bed, lifted the covers, bent over, looked under it and said: "All right, boys, you can come out now."
And the fourth and last story: On Sundays the Frankfurter society liked to go to the Galopprennbahn Niederrad, bet on horse races, parade amongst the people, meet friends and, most importantly, be seen. One sunny Sunday morning my grandmother decided that she would take her four sons to the Galopprennbahn but, due to the difficult financial times, she would not pay a pfennig to get in. "The prices they ask! It is preposterous!" (a word she definitely favoured). So, everyone put on their best Sunday clothes and off they went. When they arrived at the main gate they met with a queue of people at the gate controlled by one single man in uniform. My grandmother positioned herself orderly in line with her three eldest sons; at the same time, she pushed Siegfried, the smallest one, between a group of men and women in front of her. When they handed over their tickets and went through the gate, the little boy simply slid along hiding between legs and flowing skirts and was duly overseen by the gate keeper who was too busy controlling new comers and tickets. As soon as Siegfried arrived safely on the other side he stopped, turned around, and remained standing in the middle of the crowd facing the entrance's gate, looking completely lost. My grandmother did not waste one second. She started to shout and wave her arms in his direction:"Hoo-hoo! Rolf! I am here! Hoo-Hoo! Rolfchen!" She caused such a commotion in the orderly queue of well-dressed and well brought-up Frankfurters that the gate keeper stopped what ever he was doing and asked her very politely:"Gnädige Frau, what is going on? Can I help you?" "Oh, yes, please! It's my son! My son is over there! I must go and fetch him at once. He is deaf and mute, he will get lost! Please let me through, it won't take a moment. Roolfchen! I am here! Mama is coming!, answered my grandmother with tears in her eyes. The man looked at the small boy "over there", who still looked completely lost and wouldn't move an inch in spite of his mother's deafening uproar. With a sigh, he opened the gate wide and said, anything to stop the shrieks of that unpleasant woman: "By all means, gnädige Frau, please go in, go and fetch him." My grandmother thanked him profusely, wiped her inexistent tears from her face, and before the man could blink an eye, she pushed her other three sons in front of her and all went in making waves with their arms and shouting "Rolfchen, Rooolf" until they reached him. Head high, murmuring a "Well done, my boy", my grandmother grabbed her youngest by the hand and kept on walking followed by her other three sons until all four got lost in the crowd.
My grandfather, Adolf Goldberg, my aunts Martha and Bella and their husbands left Frankfurt in 1933 and somehow managed to migrate to Brazil in safety, where we, my mother, my brother and I arrived on the hot summer day of February 23, 1947, by boat from Marseille, with a stop in Casablanca, Africa.
In 1933, 30,000 Jews lived in Frankfurt. That year, Nazi member Friedrich Krebs replaced the city's Jewish mayor, Ludwig Landmann, and all Jewish officials were fired, and most of the Jews started to leave Germany to escape the growing persecutions.
For once, the Nazis had not kept any records of the dead deportees of the Convoi 73 or maybe they got lost. And I cannot even be sure that my father was really murdered on May 20th, 1944. The Article 3 of the French Law No. 85/528 of 15 May 1985 on the acts and declarative sentences of death of those who died in deportation, promulgated forty years after the end of the 2nd World War, and that applies to all of the deportees, resistants, politicians, hostages, etc., states:
"When it is established that a person has been part of a convoy of deportation and no news has been received from him/her subsequent to the date of departure of the convoy, his/her death is presumed as having occurred on the fifth day following that date, at the place of destination of the convoy." [Translated by the author] – January 21, 2008]
Notwithstanding all these discoveries, notwithstanding the fact that my mother and my brother had already died by the time the pieces of this puzzle began falling into place, one question still nags me: how did my mother, my brother and myself escape from the Nazis and the French Police?

Very durable...
By: Chris
These Wrangler ripstop pants are extremely durable and will hold up to pretty much every condition. The material is very good and very thick. It is constructed very well with triple stitching. What I mostly love about these pants are its pockets. It has deep pockers along with many smaller ones. The lower half of the pants (below the knee) is made up of thicker material than the upper half. These pants are very suited towards rugged work and seems to be a much better option than jeans. I recommend these pants to anyone looking for a very durable pair of pants.

Wrangler Riggs Ripstop Pants...

A fellow worker turned me on to these pants. These will wear like iron and look good at the same time. The pockets will hold just about anything you would want to carry. Also love the knife patch, so you don't wear out you pocket. I would recommend these to anyone who want a good quality, durable pant.

Tough pants that are lighter weight....
By: MachTurtle
The Wrangler Riggs Pants are unlike some work pants these are lighter weight and easier to move and work freely. Extremely tough and comfortable pants. The Ranger style has large cargo pockets and reinforced thigh and knee portion of the pants. I will definitely be buying more.

wrangler riggs ripstop cargo pants...
By: Glenn
I have still older model of the ripstop cargo pants which are a lot heavier and stronger. These new style ones are a lot thinner and lighter than earlier models. still one of the best wearing work pants and plenty of pockets. As usual today anything that lasts is replaced with a cheaper model. but would still recommend buying these pants if you work in the construction industry.

Gun permit applications quadruple in Wolfeboro
Police Chief Stuart Chase recently told the Police Commission that the number of pistol/revolver license applications has quadrupled in the first month of 2013, compared with last year's monthly average. In January alone, the department received 48 pistol/revolver permit applications while in an average month the department processes between 10 and 12.
On Wednesday, Chase said the increase in applications translates to more work for officers who do the "footwork" and review the paperwork, but that so far the department is able to comply with the two-week turnaround time required by the state.
Speaking as an individual and not on behalf of the department, Chase said the increase may be a "knee jerk" reaction to the political debate over gun control, and perhaps the perception by some that gun rights will be hindered.
"I think people are afraid their right to have a firearm will be taken away; that's the general fear," he said, adding that many people arm themselves for protection.
Chase, who worked as a police officer in Massachusetts for 35 years, including as a police chief in Danvers, said gun permits are simpler to acquire in New Hampshire than in Massachusetts.
"I worked in Massachusetts for 35 years and the laws on obtaining a license there are prohibitive; here, we are far more in tune with (Second Amendment) legal rights. It's easier to be licensed," he said. "Here, the application is short and sweet."
Not too short, however. He said applicants are subject to a background check, reviewed through the NCIC (National Crime Information Center) database, and are required to provide three references. In some cases, the department may have personal knowledge of the applicant.
"We can rely on our own records, local knowledge and unofficial sources. Generally, in a community this size, it's not difficult to make a determination as to suitability," he added.
The pistol/revolver permit asks whether the applicant has been convicted of a felony; is a user or addicted to any controlled substance; has ever been deemed mentally defective by a court or committed to a mental institution; and whether the applicant has been convicted in any court of a misdemeanor of domestic violence. The last question asks why the applicant wants to carry a pistol in New Hampshire.
The license fee is $10 for residents, and $100 for non-residents. The license is required to carry a loaded pistol or revolver in a motor vehicle or to carry a concealed loaded pistol or revolver.

When he was young, Jack London was an oyster pirate on San Francisco Bay and like Wolf Larsen believed that might made right. After serving in a number of occupations he saw many decent, strong, hard-working men destroyed or incapacitated by accidents, diseases or the workings of the capitalist economic system. Unless one had rich relatives who were generous, one was out of luck. Greatly to his credit, Jack London became a socialist.

AN EAST Lancashire police officer has launched a biker safety campaign in memory of his father.
Insp Dave Mangan, who is in charge of road policing in East Division, wants to raise awareness of the dangers of riding while tired, after his dad, Mike, was killed in a bike crash.
The 72-year-old was riding in Somerset when he was involved in a collision with an oncoming vehicle while overtaking.
Mike, a retired electrical engineer and experienced motorcyclist, was on the last 10 miles of a 320-mile journey and his family believes that tiredness was a contributory factor.
Insp Mangan, 43, who lives in Turton and was with his dad at the time of the fatal crash, said he now wanted to use his position to offer advice on staying safe while riding.
He said: "I hope my dad would be really pleased that he has this legacy of road safety in his name. He was an advanced motorcyclist and he was very much for improving road safety and increasing skills. As a police officer, biker and somebody who has witnessed this awful incident, I am ideally placed to spread this message.
"I have to find something positive to come out of such a horrendous incident. We have decided to use this tragic incident to help educate other riders. If it reminds just one biker of the dangers faced by riding while tired, then it will be a success."'Mike's last ride' tells the story of the day of the fatal collision and a video is available to watch on YouTube. Insp Mangan, who was also a geographic inspector in Accrington and Blackburn, will be joined by friends and colleagues as he leads a ride to Land's End, stopping for a minute's silence where his father was killed, to promote the campaign.Residents can keep up to date with their progress on Twitter and Facebook.
Officers from Lancashire Constabulary will also be going to bike meets across the county. For more information, visit www.lancashire.police.uk/ mikeslastride

PHOENIX — Voters apparently will get the last word on controversial changes in state election laws pushed through by Republicans at the end of the last session.
Backers of a referendum drive turned in 146,028 signatures on petitions to block the changes from being implemented as scheduled on Friday. They need 86,405 valid signatures to qualify for the ballot, which would put the law on hold until the 2014 election, barring a successful likely legal challenge.
"It's not every day that voters get the opportunity to refer a bad piece of legislation to the ballot," said Julie Erfle, who led the campaign. The last successful referendum drive was in 1998.
Barry Hess, vice chairman of the Arizona Libertarian Party, said the petition drive succeeded because the law being challenged "represents the only time the Republican leadership has been able to bring together virtually every other political interest known to mankind."
Key provisions include:
• Limiting who can take someone's early ballot to a polling place.
• Setting up procedures to stop sending early ballots to voters who haven't used them.
• Imposing stricter requirements on citizen groups proposing their own laws through initiatives.
The law also would require minor party candidates to get as many signatures to qualify for the ballot as Republicans or Democrats despite their much smaller voter registration edge. Now, nomination is based on a percentage of registered voters for each party.
"I think it's crazy that someone would get on a general election ballot with getting only 10, 11, 17 signatures," said Sen. Michele Reagan, R-Scottsdale, who is chairing a committee trying to persuade voters to uphold lawmakers' changes.
But the debate over the law showed a decidedly partisan purpose behind it.
Rep. J.D. Mesnard, R-Chandler, told colleagues the low signature requirements for Libertarians affected 2012 congressional races, causing them to not go "in the direction I would have liked to have seen them go."
In CD 1, Republican Jonathan Paton fell short in his bid to oust incumbent Democrat Ann Kirkpatrick. Paton garnered 113,594 votes against 122,774 for Kirkpatrick. But Libertarian Kim Allen picked up 15,227 votes, which Mesnard argued would have gone to Paton to help him win.
Similarly, the presence of Libertarian Powell Gammill, who snagged 16,620 votes in CD 9, allowed Democrat Kyrsten Sinema to beat Republican Vernon Parker.
Former state Sen. Ron Gould, R-Lake Havasu City, chastised his former colleagues, saying, "In reality, what this is is you have weak Republican candidates that get beat and want to blame it on the fact that people had a third choice."
Kari Nienstedt, state director of the Humane Society of the United States, lashed out at the changes making it harder for citizens to initiate their own laws.
"The initiative process is designed to allow voters to consider an issue in a democratic fashion," said Nienstedt, whose group has backed initiatives to ban cockfighting, steel leg-hold traps and small pens for pigs. "That process should not be weakened."
Other objections surround early ballots.
Current law allows those who get an early ballot to mail it back, take it to a polling place or give it to anyone else to take to the polls.
The legislation would make it a crime for a volunteer or someone from a political committee to collect early ballots.

An Income Portfolio for Retirees
Ryan is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
A few years ago we hit an unusual milestone in the chronicles of investing: the average dividend yield of the S&P 500 exceeded the yield of the ten-year Treasury note for the first time in more than 50 years. In fact, in 2011, the average dividend yield of the S&P 500 hovered around 3.3 to 3.4 percent, more than half a percent higher than the ten-year Treasury note. As a result, investors began to pour money into the stock market. Share prices increased and yields decreased.
Risk and return
Most of us know that dividend-paying stocks are riskier than Treasury notes, which are generally used as the "risk free rate" (in other words the interest payment represents a return that an investor can expect to achieve while incurring no risk). After all, their stock prices can go up and down as a result of both the economy and the individual fortunes of the companies. But many of us forget that the price of bonds can go down too, especially longer-term bonds such as the ten-year Treasury note. And in contrast to bonds, many companies that pay a dividend choose to raise their dividends.
Reliable raisers
There are a handful of companies that pay meaningful dividends and that consistently raise their dividend payouts. With these companies, you not only get an attractive yield from the start but you also get generous raises over time. A company that raises its dividend by 10% on average, for instance, will roughly double its payout every seven years, whereas a company that raises its dividend by 20% will roughly double its payout every three to four years. These companies are also committed to increasing those payouts for years to come. So you can gain two ways: through dividends and share price appreciation.
Coming up with an "An Income Portfolio for Retirees"
To generate a list of reliable raisers I ensured that the following conditions were met: the company had to have a current payout of at least 2%; the company had to have stable operations; the company had to indicate a commitment to rewarding shareholders with dividends through words and printed materials; and the company had to have raised its dividend each of the past 10 years (or kept its promise to its shareholders). Then I removed utilities from the list and ensured diversification -- or ensured that various sectors were represented.
So what does this portfolio look like?
A diversified healthcare manufacturer
Abbott Laboratories (NYSE: ABT) is the largest company in the nutritional products market and is the third-largest producer of pharmaceuticals. With a beta of around 0.3, this company is as recession-proof they get. What's more, Abbott continues to invest roughly 10% of its sales into research & development, which appears to have resulted in more than a fair number of innovative products with high margins. The major concerns are two-fold: new healthcare policies and patent expirations. Overall, similar to another company on this list, this company is splitting into two companies and that should unlock shareholder value and reward investors.
An iconic brand that cannot be replicated
Coca-Cola (NYSE: KO) is the largest beverage company in the world. On the positive side, Coca-Cola is arguably the most recognizable brand in the world; it has a balanced portfolio of products that consists of soft drinks, juices, juice drinks, energy drinks, coffees, teas, and packaged water; it has the potential to grow alongside large emerging economies such as China and India as per capita income rises; and it has raised its dividend each of the past 50 years. On the negative side, concerns about health and obesity are affecting sales, margins in some business lines are eroding, and competition is intensifying, particularly with PepsiCo, which has a joint venture with Starbucks and Unilever. Still, Coke offers a solid, predictable investment.
A company that will benefit from rising oil prices
ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP) is the third-largest integrated energy company in the United States. This company has a solid track record; has unlocked value by separating into two companies; has excellent earnings, cash flow, and book value; and can often times be purchased at a discount relative to two other titans: ExxonMobil and Chevron. The major risks facing ConocoPhillips are geopolitical risk, discovery of alternative sources of energy or additional reserves, oil price volatility, and refining margins. Overall, though, oil stocks have a reliable track record of consistently delivering very strong results.
A diversified manufacturing technology company
3M Company (NYSE: MMM) is widely cited in business schools as one of the most innovative companies in the world. On the one hand, 3M has a diversified line of products, exposure to international markets, a culture that nurtures innovation, and the stock price is just now catching up with 3M's performance over the past few years. On the other hand, this company is vulnerable to slowdowns in the global economy, is having trouble growing, and may engage in risky M&A activity to catalyze growth. All factors considered, there are few companies that balance stability and innovation the way that 3M does.
3 critical considerations
1. Climate: The climate for dividend growth continues to be favorable. More than 400 of companies in the S&P 500, for example, pay a dividend. And companies have a ton of cash on their balance sheets. Rather than hire commit to expensive wages or business investments that might not payout, many companies will reward loyal shareholders through dividends.
2. Price: These are all great companies. There is no doubt about that. But price matters -- a lot. In fact, I would not purchase any of these companies at an earnings multiple of more than 15 (and I want to see a multiple in the single-digits for ConocoPhillips). These companies are simply too large to grow in the double digits. Growing in the double digits for a $50 billion company means adding $5 billion in new business every year.
3. Dividend yield: All of these companies currently have dividend yields of more than 2% (through FY12). You can augment that dividend yield by selling covered calls where you give someone the right to purchase your shares from you at a price higher than they are currently selling at in the market over a finite time period for a price. If your shares never reach the strike price, then you pocket the price of the option less a small transaction cost. On the other hand, if the stock hits the strike price, then you also make a small profit through share price appreciation as long as the strike price is more than the price that you paid for the stock.
My foolish take
We all have different risk and reward tolerances. Although I do not feel that this investment strategy makes sense for me given my age and risk tolerance, it is similar to the investment strategy that my mother is currently executing -- and it makes perfect sense for her given that she is retired. Please also note that finding an attractive entry point is critical because right now many companies are fully valued.

Red Pixel 'fast tracks' O.R Tambo offerings in Gautrain stations

network2media Bureau
Monday, 14 November 2011 09:00 (IST)
JOHANNESBURG: Recently established design and creative agency, Red Pixel, has been commissioned by ACSA to conceptualise and design the 'Keep Discovering ORTIA' campaign, aimed at dispelling the perception of expensive merchandise.
Red Pixel, headed by Mark Powell, and a division of the Primedia Lifestyle family, specialises in conception, design and rollout of creative campaigns for leading shopping malls in South Africa, including the Airports Company South Africa (ACSA).
'Keep discovering ORTIA' was conceptualised to create awareness amongst the general public, tourists and travellers using the Gautrain, to ensure it is the preferred method of transportation to and from O.R Tambo International, and to reiterate the airport as a viable and cost effective alternative shopping destination.
Red Pixel's Mark Powell commented, "The Gautrain is already popular amongst people travelling to O.R Tambo, and growing in popularity as a viable means of public transportation. This provided us with a targeted media platform aimed at the consumers that we wanted to reach, with minimal media wastage. With the addition of the Pretoria link, more people now have access to O.R Tambo and to a wide variety of brands and products which can be purchased."
According to Red Pixel, the creatives
merged the placement of the media platforms within the stations to the various Gautrain destinations with an overall message that the consumer could easily identify with. The Gautrain creative displays a zipper, which represents the Gautrain tracks, which opens to reveal a world of offerings available at OR Tambo, ranging from fast foods to world class brands such as Ferrari and Prada; all accessible in under 15 minutes.

The atmosphere itself; cosy and modern, yet unclaustrophobic, could have rescued an evening otherwise ruined by average food and drink. As it happened, the cuisine turned out to be equally enjoyable. The flavours were punchy and diverse, the cocktails and wines, delicious. My only criticism would be with the slightly dissapointing serving sizes for some of the mains. But by either filling up on rice or forking out a little extra I doubt an evening could go much better.

Bed Bug Products Bedlam Insecticide Spray
Bedlam Insecticide – 17 oz. can
A bed bug infestation can happen in any home; they can be picked up from traveling, even from the nicest hotels. If they do get in your home, you want to get rid of them quickly and efficiently. Bedlam Insecticide, the top used aerosol product to eliminate bed bugs by professionals, can do just that. It is a residual aerosol spray that you can use specifically for bed bugs, even spot-treating the bedding and mattress. Not many other aerosols can do that. Bedlam spray is safe to use in homes and is effective on not only bed bugs, but also on dust mites, ticks, fleas and lice, some of the most hated insects of all!
Bedlam not only kills within hours, but it also lasts. This is one of the few products that not only kills adult bed bugs, but the eggs as well. It is safe for humans and animals, even when sprayed on pillows, mattresses and box springs.
Because of the aerosol container, there is no mixing, measuring or diluting -- it's so easy to use! It is safe to use around kids and pets, but keep them out of the area until the product is dry. Bedlam is one of the only products that can be broadcast sprayed onto entire mattresses, box springs, headboards, baseboards, walls, and other furniture. You can use it on pet bedding, but do not spray directly on pets. Do not use in food handling areas.
As with any pesticide, read and follow all directions and precautions before use.

3 ways digital media is turning us into 2nd graders
We are all regressing. And I have proof from an authoritative source: the state of children's books.

My evidence for declaring this probable cause and… Read More
Bill Gates to keynote SXSWedu conference
While much of the tech world's attention is focused on Las Vegas and the Consumer Electronics Show (and Microsoft's lack of a keynote or exhibit space), the upcoming SXSWedu conference has announced its first keynote: Bill Gates.

America's unmet tech challenge: the public radio pledge drive

Here comes another tech bubble — in education
I'm the kind of guy who worries when something gets too popular. I looked askance at novels (especially science fiction) that made it to mainstream bestseller lists when written by otherwise mediocre authors.

But if these stories led to you to believe that the… Read More
Banks behaving badly: Dealing with a divisive digital divide
When a company providing financial services emphasizes digital convenience, you'd think that also applies to its customer service. After all, nearly every major bank and credit union pushes online banking, mobile banking, text and email alerts and electronic bill payment. But there seems to be a digital divide between financial institutions promoting digital and thinking… Read More
10 questions: 'Existence' author David Brin on science fiction, science and geeks
One could successfully argue that modern geek culture wouldn't exist in its current form without 20th century science fiction and its fan culture, the true Ancient Geeks.

Treating Voice Disorders
The Use of Facial-Flex® as an Adjunct to Speech Therapy in the Treatment of Voice Disorders:
A Case Report
By Joseph R. Spiegel, M.D., Judith N. Creed, M.A., CCC-SLP, Kate A. Emerich, M.S., CCC-SLP
Facial-Flex is a lightweight, mouthpiece-sized device which provides dynamic resistance during oral motor exercises. It has been shown to strengthen the circumoral facial muscles when used in a program to maintain constant resistance with daily use. Facial-Flex is currently under study as an adjunct to speech therapy in patients with disorders of both muscular weakness and hyperfunction that affect voice. The following case report demonstrates early results in a patient with both of these problems.
The patient is a 57-year-old male with a 4- to 5-month history of hoarseness, hypernasality and strain with voice use. Otolaryngologic examination including strobovideolaryngoscopy revealed a right superior laryngeal nerve paresis, muscle tension dysphonia and gastroesophageal reflux laryngitis. He was referred for speech therapy evaluation and treatment.
Initial examination of the oral mechanism revealed slight weakness of the lips and circumoral muscles on the left side, slight left-sided tongue weakness and spasms of the left neck and cheek. During conversational speech and reading passage, throat, jaw and tongue tension was evident and placement of the tongue was generally posterior. His vocal quality was slightly hoarse.
The patient completed an 8-week course of therapy, including 4 biweekly, 30- to 45-minute speech therapy sessions and exercise with the Facial-Flex. He successfully progressed from 60 repetitions daily with 6 ounce resistance to 300 repetitions daily with 8 ounce resistance during the study period. At the completion of the therapy course both the patient and the therapist noted complete resolution of the asymmetric left facial weakness and of the cheek and neck spasms. Questionnaires completed by both patient and therapist separately reveal that they both felt that the Facial-Flex made the speech therapy easier to complete and more successful. The patient has had improvement in vocal quality, strength stamina, pitch range and ease of use.
This is a single case report of the subjective findings of a therapist and patient with regard to use of Facial-Flex as an adjunct to a program of speech therapy. These early results are exciting because they demonstrate the safe and efficacious use of Facial-Flex in a patient with voice problems secondary to both muscle weakness and compensatory muscle tension.
Voice disorders result from a variety of local and systemic conditions. Some patients have poor vocal quality or strength due to lesions such as a laryngeal neoplasm or injury, neuromuscular weakness, voice abuse or psychological stress. Diseases of neuromuscular weakness, abnormal muscle motion and disorders of central neurologic control can cause poor speech articulation and weak voice quality.
Many voice disorders are associated with a weakness, incoordination or abnormal use of facial and cervical muscles. Normal voice production requires movement and stabilization of the larynx by the extrinsic laryngeal muscles in the neck. The facial musculature is affected as an extension of the cervical muscles and is a primary component in the formation of language. Tone of the facial and cervical muscles also has an influence on vocal resonance in the oral cavity and pharynx. Weakness of these muscle groups may result in complaints such as hoarseness, breathiness, loss of vocal volume, loss of pitch range, vocal fatigue dysarthria and slurred speech. Conditions causing such weakness include cerebrovascular accident (stroke), chronic neuromuscular diseases (e.g., multiple sclerosis, ALS), myasthenia gravis, surgical trauma, Bell's palsy and any chronic debilitating disease.
Speech therapy provided by a speech-language pathologist trained in voice care and singing voice training provided by a voice teacher is beneficial in the treatment of almost all patients with disorders of voice secondary to related neuromuscular dysfunction. Strengthening exercises are utilized to correct weakened muscle groups and provide balanced muscular effort. Specific exercises and maneuvers are taught to promote relaxation in muscle groups with demonstrated hyperfunction. Additionally, the promotion of general vocal hygiene and proper speaking and singing technique will result in more balanced and proper use of the cervicofacial muscles.
Facial-Flex is an adjunct to speech therapy for all disorders of cervicofacial muscle strength or spasm causing dysphonia.

As curator of the Davis Museum at Wellesley College, Elaine Mehalakes dreamed of commissioning a piece of music to complement a visual installation. And because her museum is on a college campus, Mehalakes knew just the composer who could make this happen: Jenny Olivia Johnson, an assistant professor of music composition and theory at Wellesley.
Johnson brought an unusual asset to the project. Not only is she an acclaimed composer and percussionist, she also has a neurological condition called synesthesia, which she describes as "experiencing sound as a color or a touch or another sensory modality." So the challenge of creating what she calls a "sound picture" for the museum was irresistible.

Before I start complaining, let me admit my own bit of the problem. I'm slipping on attendance. 04 & 05 I started the season with Spring Training visits. 06 I didn't get out until the Nats/O's exhibition two days before Opening Day, and I felt late. Then last year, I didn't get to the park until 3rd week of April. This year, I didn't make it until yesterday -- IN MAY. Birdland won't be it's true self until all the folks who feel hardcore inside are outside -- taking the air in the stands at OPACY.
That said, I was admiring the new scoreboards yesterday. You can, like, read what they say -- even in daylight at a bad angle (looking up from Eutaw Street Reserves). A big step forward, I think and then ... Kiss Cam. I can't believe I'm actually watching this nonsense at my home park. Let 'em do that crap in DC, I've believed in years past, but not HERE. At first I'm encouraged by the lack of response. We want sports trivia between innings, or least cartoon hot dogs running the bases -- something remotely baseball. Right? Then, some fools actually smooch. The cheer is louder than when Adam Jones' shot cleared the left field wall. Ugh. That cheer is real crowd noise too.
I know pumped in crowd noise has been around since the 90s, but the park management needs to do something about it now. Blended into real crowd noise, you don't notice so much. In the quiet, empty place right now, the sudden bursts of shrill screaming are just plain disconcerting. So obvious. So WEAK. It's enough to inspire your offense to only get three hits. Create excitement on the field, don't try to manufacture it in the PA. Do laugh tracks make bland sitcoms funny? C'mon.
In good news, the Orioles Hall of Fade is again a Hall of Fame -- brand new plaques behind the scoreboard. You can actually read Al Bumbry's inscription again. That's the deal. That's Birdland. Honor the tradition and do the hard, smart organizational work to recreate it between the lines. Whoever in the Warehouse approves tarting up Birdland with the other stuff can kiss somethin' you can't show on the Jumbotron.

Court papers claim City of San Diego Planning Commission erred by denying year-round seal rope permit at La Jolla Children's Pool
Court papers filed Feb. 20 by the City of San Diego say that its Planning Commission erred in rejecting a permit for a year-round rope to protect the harbor seals at the Children's Pool in La Jolla.
The filing by the City Attorney's Office came in a lawsuit filed by two animal rights groups, the Animal Protection and Rescue League and the La Jolla Friends of the Seals.
The City Council and California Coastal Commission have both approved the rope for year-round use, but the actual permit was denied by the PlanningCommission, which has the final say on some land use issues. Right now, the barrier is only up during pupping season from Dec. 15 to May 15 each year.
The barrier runs across most, but not all, of the opening to the beach and is meant to discourage people from going onto the beach and disturbing newborn seals and their mothers. Video footage was released Monday of two young women apparently harassing seals at Children's Pool beach Feb. 14.
The seals are the subject of a long-running dispute between animal rights organizations and beach access advocates, who want the area returned to its original use as a safe swimming area for children, or shared by humans and seals. Harbor seals began taking over the spot, deeded to the city in 1931, in the early 1990s.
"The city concedes its Planning Commission erred when it denied the site development permit for an annual rope barrier," Deputy City Attorney George Schaefer wrote in the filing.
The city rejected a request by the nonprofits for attorneys' fees, saying there was no opposition to their demands.
The City Attorney's Office had no immediate comment on the filing.

1710 LED C9 Bulbs
4438 Rope Lights

We are currently at

If all the strings of
lights were lined up from end to end they would stretch well over
To hook up all the
lights over 300 extensions cords are used stretching more than 7000
If all the lights
were turned on at once it would take 238 amps of power. This is according to the amperage listed on
each set of lights. Fortunately I have 400 amps of power in
the garage just waiting to be tapped into.
1000 feet of Cat5

It takes 18 days to put up and hookup all the lights.
And about 3 or 4 days
to take down and store them all.
The electric bill is
not as much as you would think. My December bill is about $60
more than my November bill. Which is much better than the
$250 bill I would get when the lights were always on.

Marcia S. DeLonge,* Rebecca Ryals, and Whendee L. Silver (Ecosystem Sciences Division, Department of Environmental Science, Policy, and Management, University of California at Berkeley)
Researchers designed a field-scale model that quantifies greenhouse gas emissions (CO2, CH4, and N2O) from the production, application, and ecosystem response of soil amendments. Using this model, researchers developed a set of case studies for grazed annual grasslands in California. Sensitivity tests were performed to explore the impacts of model variables and management options, including typical manure and fertilizer applications. Finally, researchers conducted Monte Carlo simulations to provide estimates of the potential error associated with variables where literature data were sparse or spanned wide ranges.

Mike Trout capped a nine-run first inning against Rick Porcello with his first career grand slam, Garrett Richards pitched two-hit ball over seven innings and the Los Angeles Angels routed the Detroit Tigers 10-0 on Saturday.
Richards (1-0) struck out eight and walked none. Prince Fielder's leadoff single in the second and Miguel Cabrera's leadoff double in the seventh were the only hits off the right-hander in his second start for the injured Jered Weaver, who is sidelined with a broken bone in his non-pitching arm.
Richards has pitched into the seventh inning in both starts -- the only one on the staff to make it past the sixth in the team's first 16 games.
The defending AL champion Tigers, who lost Friday night's series opener 8-1, were shut out for the third time this season and have produced only three runs in their last 42 innings -- two of which came on groundouts.

"Children with special needs" means children who exhibit one or more of the following characteristics, confirmed by clinical evaluation:
o Visual impairment: the child's visual impairment is such that development to full potential without special services cannot be achieved.
o Hearing impairment: the child's residual hearing is not sufficient to enable him or her to understand the spoken word and to develop language, thus causing extreme deprivation in learning and communication, or a hearing loss is exhibited that prevents full awareness of environmental sounds and spoken language, limiting normal language acquisition and learning.
o Physical or health impairment: the child exhibits a physical or health impairment that requires adaptation of the physical plant.
o Speech and/or language impairment: the child exhibits deviations of speech and/or language processes that are outside the range of acceptable variation within a given environment and prevent full social development.
o Learning disability: the child exhibits one or more deficits in the essential processes of perception, conceptualization, language, memory, attention, impulse control or motor function.
o Behavioral disability: the child exhibits an effective disability and/or maladaptive behavior that significantly interferes with learning and/or social functioning.
o Mental impairment: the child's intellectual development, mental capacity, and/or adaptive behavior are markedly delayed. Such mental impairment may be mild, moderate, severe or profound.
