American Merkin Company
A merkin is a pubic wig. The term is also sometimes used as slang/shorthand for 'American.' Apparently actors doing nude scenes sometimes wear merkins. Heidi Klum did a scene involving an oversized, obviously fake merkin in the movie Blow Dry. But where, you might wonder, could a casual curiosity seeker ever get their hands on such a thing? Just head on over to the American Merkin Company (not safe for work, but only mildly so). Their motto is 'Handcrafting merkins for over 150 years,' and they offer a full range of this product in a variety of sizes, shapes, and colors. Or at least, so they claim. They display a number at the bottom of their webpage which you can call and order some up (1-877-508-6307). I couldn't contain my curiosity about whether this company was for real, so I dialed them up, only to reach an operator who had never heard of them. So I guess the American Merkin Company is a hoax. Their motto should have been a tip-off.

Work in progress for Imaging Apartheid (part 1)
I've been slowly working on this for a month with feedback and discussion with Kevin Lo.
It is a poster for the Imaging Apartheid project.
Kevin envisioned the original concept of a shattering wall. Taking off from there I struggled to find an aesthetic hook but have finally in the last few days taken to some angles, textures, and perspectives. I should be done in a week or so (which is beyond the deadline so we'll see what happens).
Update: subsequent posts discussing work on this poster:
Part 2
Part 3
Below: Where I'm currently at:

Below: An early general-direction test.

Corey Crawford Vows He Won't Change Approach, Despite Weak Glove Side
By Michael Hurley, CBS Boston
BOSTON (CBS) –As Joel Quenneville guards details of Marian Hossa's injury like a secret of the state, one bit of strategy from the Stanley Cup Final has become as clear as day: When the Bruins shoot, they're aiming for Corey Crawford's glove side.
Through four games of the Final, the Bruins have scored 12 goals, and it's obvious that they have one target in sight when they release their shots. That was never more evident than on Wednesday night in Game 4, when the Bruins time after time after time got pucks past Crawford's left side.
Rich Peverley's wrist shot from about 40 feet was in and out of the net before Crawford ever moved his left arm. Milan Lucic's backhand chip from in close sailed past Crawford's glove. Crawford tried and failed to use his glove to fight off Patrice Bergeron's one-timed slap shot from the top of the faceoff circle. Johnny Boychuk's rocket from the high slot flew past Crawford's glove. Heck, even the bizarre bounce off the glass and back over the net led to Bergeron beating Crawford to the glove side.

Silver Price Little Changed Since Wednesday's Drop
Silver – iNVEZZ.com reported that Thursday brought little change to silver's price, though the previous session saw the white metal drop the most since the start of October.
Silver – iNVEZZ.com reported that Thursday brought little change to silver's price, though the previous session saw the white metal drop the most since the start of October.
Silver – Silver was down today, with futures for December delivery falling $0.02, to $21.83 an ounce on the COMEX in New York.
Copper – Today, benchmark copper on the London Metal Exchange dropped $50 from the previous session, hitting $7,190 a tonne.
Positive economic news and hints of interest rate cuts in Europe supported oil and copper prices this week, while central banks and buyers of gold bars and coins gave the yellow metal a much-needed lift.
Tin – Reuters reported that tin climbed 0.8% as US weekly jobless claims fell unexpectedly.
Resource prices held steady this week as good news from the US was offset by worries that a stronger euro could slow the continent's recovery.
Copper – Positive US and Chinese manufacturing data pushed copper to a short-lived, four-month high on Monday. Thereafter, copper prices slumped three days in a row as Spain became embroiled in a corruption scandal and the European Central Bank warned of risks to Europe's economic recovery.
Silver – After losses last week prompted by one central bank — the Federal Reserve — silver gained on news from the ECB, another central bank.
Gold – Gold prices were down again this week on continued global concerns about the mounting fiscal cliff. However, investors are using the low prices as a discounted entry point.
Gold – Reuters reported that gold prices rallied to their highest so far in 2012 on Thursday on the up-coming US jobs data, and the ECB's intent to keep borrowing costs low. Gold prices are setting their sights on the $1,800 mark.

fluiddb: All content tagged as fluiddb in NoSQL databases and polyglot persistence

Presentation: An Introduction to FluidDB
We briefly covered FluidDB in the past when I mis-named it the Wikipedia of databases. The presentation embedded below clarifies a bit more the following questions:
- what is FluidDB: a platform for the web of things, each represented by an openly writable "social" object
- why FluidDB: most of the information nowadays lives inside walled gardens, so its difficult to make real use of it. I especially enjoyed this slide explaining the problem with closed information:
- how to use FluidDB: all applications use the same FluidDB database through a RESTful API

I think the market is still too young and small to see real attacks between the players. But once the market will grow in size, we will unfortunately start seeing some of these. Hopefully, myNoSQL readers will know how to make the difference!

FluidDB Proposal is Brilliant, But…
It looks like initially I have misunderstood what FluidDB is by calling it a "Wikipedia of databases". A ☞ post on the FluidDB blog has clarified it for me, so I came up with another definition: "a persistent post-it database service in the cloud".
While reading the blog post — and leaving aside the fact that as any NoSQL solution it came up with a Twitter-related application — I have found myself getting really excited at the idea. But then, I have realized that:
- there must be someone creating such an application
- the associative pattern suggested by FluidDB, while being nice will have to be extremely carefully implemented in the app
- (this is the most interesting from our NoSQL perspective) there doesn't seem to be anything unique in FluidDB that would make such a usecase non-applicable to any other NoSQL solution.
Let me clarify it a bit. Basically the article introduces the idea of being able to associate metadata with any kind of information and keep this metadata under clear access rules. In my opinion this is just a simple associative relationship (think key-value stores) that could be implemented using any of the NoSQL solutions we are covering here. Moreover, I tend to think that document databases, like CouchDB, MongoDB, Riak or Terrastore would offer natively a lot of flexibility on the metadata "(un)structure"
Am I wrong?
Taking a look at a fascinating FluidDB usecase that seems to be easily supported by any NoSQL solution. Or not?

Putting metadata onto tweets with FluidDB
I haven't heard much about ☞ FluidDB before, so I was curious to read this use-case built around Twitter. I have to confess that I'm still not sure I understand what FluidDB is and what are its goals, but after skimming a bit through the website, I left with the feeling that FluidDB is a sort of Wikipedia of databases.

In case you come up with a better idea of what FluidDB is do share it with us!

It wasn't readable - it doesn't behave the same as ordinary mailboxes. This way provides a path to retrieve those .imapmbox email archives.

Joomla gallery extension by joomlashine.com
Sample gallery images
• My name is Julius, Gyula Székely. Borned in Hungary with a genetical eye-problem (Cornea Distrophy). I can see blury, fogy -sometimes not even that.
Not even this was holding back to traveling all over the world since I was 20 years old mostly as an Artist, Masseur, Fitness Trainer, Aerobic Instructor… I've been learning each places about healing from masters and also in universities.
• My gifts basically: Space-Sencer, Matrix Mover. I see and I communicating with parallel and different worlds/lifes, past/present/future in different languages and voices.
• The sessions are in dressed. Could be half, 1, 1,5 or 2 hours each occasion. Starts when you're arrive - finishing when you leave.
Generally starts with talking, calming and trusting. The Ego must also understanding things what is the Ego's job (to be in time, working on computer…). Always looking for logical connection, always want to know why.
Continuing in place or on the massage table. From here the subconscious taking importancy as I connecting with peace, harmony and sounds. I also using Soundtheraphyan tools as Gong, plates, koshi, drum and my own voice. So - Hollisticly (Body, Soul, Spirit) - could heal all life in Earth. Incuding: broken bones, stretched/pulled muscle, depress, panic, cancer, autoimmune… In these days everyone knows that all the sickness based on soul problems: psycho-somatic. The most usual case based on stress. Also in this case I could help successfully.
Can be one session or can be more. Each time will be a different experience. Can be gently touch, ticklish, painful point, moving as tai-chi, yoga or dance.
Only happening what it should happen - no less and no more.
Even if somebody skeptic, do not believe - will have effection what going to lost for shorter time as a believer.
If someone like to get massage with oil - it is included. Only say it before the treatment!
• I studied also: physiologie, para-physiologie, psychi-surgery, kineziologie, reflexologie, naturopath, physiotherapist, all kind of massage.
• What problems you can come
Nearly every problem happens when you lose your way in your own life (or you haven't even found it yet); or the doctor says that they can't help you... Example: Couples can't have child; pregnancy problem; can not recover after an accident; eye-vision problems; want to use your third-eye; cancer; leucemia; even with broken bone or muscle... All the sick/illness of the physical body is coming from our Soul, Feeling, Mind. If we treat those, then we'll find ourself in health.
So - you could visit me when you feel or sense that you should visit me (you've got a call)! If you do so - does not matter what is the problem - for sure You will receive the help you need!
• The physical body is only about 3% of our body - the other parts could be all over the universe. I can get in contact with all of your other parts that we need to heal on you. So basically you can talk or be quite - the healing is continously happening rather phisically untouched or so. Can be seated or laying position. All the Energie goes through me is checked and safe - Me and my Helpers will take care of you to getting well in your Body and get closer to your True Self to solve the present problem.
Because I am comunicating with different Lifes and also asking they're help - this is the way to say good bye to cancer and all other sickness.
... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
• I also have the talent to comunicating with life who wants to born down to Earth or they're already in the Mother. During pregnancy the problems can be solved too!
• At the end of session you will recover with all the fresh positive energies in you - so you will see your life in a better angle, feel light and happy - getting solutions, resolving problems.
After the treatment please plan some time for your own to relax and drink more water!
For any other questions - please call me!

Box 4.1 History of NASA's Pluto Mission Concepts
The Space Science Board's 1986 report A Strategy for the Exploration of the Outer Planets: 1986–1996 (National Academy Press, Washington, D.C., 1986) identified the Pluto-Charon system as a likely and logical long-term candidate for a flyby reconnaissance mission. Since then, NASA plans for a Pluto mission have been repeatedly redesigned. Each iteration has been geared toward producing a mission architecture that could, in general, be accomplished either more rapidly or at lower cost than could its predecessors.
NASA's 1991 Solar System Exploration Division Strategic Plan called for a Pluto Flyby/Neptune Orbiter program, in which a pair of Mariner Mark II (Cassini-class) spacecraft would be launched in the period 2001 to 2003 by Titan IV/Centaurs on a 15- and 20-year cruise to Pluto and Neptune, respectively. Each 5,000- to 6,000-kg spacecraft would carry a payload of 14 instruments and cost in excess of $2 billion. By 1992, however, it was becoming clear that space science funds through the turn of the century would not support such an ambitious architecture. The project was officially descoped to a single Mariner Mark II Pluto Flyby or Neptune Orbiter mission and then quietly dropped.
At the same time, the idea for a Pluto Very Small or Pluto Very Small or Pluto Fast Flyby program was born out of technological feasibility studies at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. In this scenario, two spacecraft, each carrying four instruments, would be launched toward Pluto in the period 2001 to 2003. Even though each spacecraft would have a mass of approximately 150 kg, launch on a Titan IV/Centaur would be required to reduce the flight time to 7 to 8 years. A $400 million price tag included mission development and operations up until 30 days after launch, but excluded both the cost of the radioisotope thermoelectric generators necessary to power the spacecraft in the outer solar system and the cost of the two Titan IV/Centaurs. Actual mission costs would be around $1.2 billion plus expenditures for lifetime operations.
At about the same time the Pluto Fast Flyby concept was developed, a number of alternative missions were investigated. Prime among these was the so-called Pluto Flyby 350 concept developed for NASA's Discovery Program Science Working Group. It envisaged a somewhat larger, fully redundant spacecraft (~300 kg), carrying a greater range of instruments than the Pluto Fast Flyby concept. To limit total mission costs, Pluto Flyby 350 eliminated launch by a Titan IV and, instead, relied on Earth and Jupiter flybys to inject it on course to Pluto. If launched on an Atlas or Delta in 2001, Pluto Flyby 350 would have reached Pluto more than 11 years later. The missions savings on its launch vehicle costs were, however, negated by the need for a more elaborate spacecraft with a significantly longer operational lifetime.
At about the same time, consideration was also given to a Pluto orbiter mission. Studies indicated that a 35-kg spacecraft could be placed into orbit about Pluto by following a trajectory similar to that of Pluto Flyby 350. This concept was highly unattractive because the total flight time was more than 16 years and,

TORONTO: Martin Scorsese, Dean Devlin On Board 'The Wannabe'
Martin Scorsese will executive produce and Dean Devlin's Electric Entertainment will fully finance indie drama "The Wannabe," starring Patricia Arquette, Vincent Piazza and Michael Imperioli.
The project, first announced last October, is being produced by Lizzie Nastro ("Bluebird") with Mike Gasparro. Nick Sandow is directing from his own script.
The story is set in New York City during the early 1990s with Piazza playing a man obsessed with mob culture who attempts to fix the jury in the trial of John Gotti. When his plot is foiled and he's rejected by the ones he idolizes most, he sets off with a woman (Arquette), who is a neighborhood fixture.
Electric Entertainment is also executive producing along with Traction Media ("Short Term 12").
Electric made the announcement on Thursday, the opening day of the Toronto Intl. Film Festival, as part of unveiling the launch of an international theatrical film and TV sales and acquisitions division with "The Wannabe" as its first project.
Devlin has hired veteran exec Sonia Mehandjiyska to run the new division, which will represent Electric's original productions as well as third-party product. Mehandjiyska will introduce Electric's slate to buyers at TIFF and the American Film Market.
Mehandjiyska was previously head of sales at Global Screen and has held posts at Gibraltar Entertainment, Lightning Entertainment and Echo Bridge, where she served as VP of international sales in their London office.
Electric recently wrapped its fifth and final season of TNT's drama "Leverage," which was executive produced by Devlin, John Rogers, Chris Downey and Marc Roskin. Electric's other television credits include TNT's "The Librarian," "The Librarian: Return to King Solomon's Mines" and "The Librarian: Curse of the Judas Chalice." Along with Bryan Singer's Bad Hat Harry production company, Electric produced SyFy Channel's "The Triangle."
Devlin is currently in pre-production on his feature directorial debut "Geostorm." He is producing with Skydance Pictures' David Ellison and Dana Goldberg and Electric Entertainment's Marc Roskin and Rachel Olschan.

Short Story Writing
Date: Mondays, 8/11/2014 to 10/6/2014
The Short Story is an art form that, although economic, encompasses all of the characteristics of great novels, including narrative and character. In Short Story Writing, students with some experience in fiction and nonfiction storytelling will use assigned readings, writing homework and workshop style critiques to explore various writing techniques. Upon completion, they will understand narrative structure and scenic writing, dialogue, character, place, word choice, rhythm and pacing and the art of revision.
Writing Your Memoir
Date: Mondays, 10/20/2014 to 12/8/2014
Memoir is a nonfiction, literary art form that–unlike autobiography–relies heavily on storytelling techniques derived from fiction, and is formed around the memory and observation of the author. In Writing Your Memoir, students will survey from the memoir canon, including Mary Karr's The Liars Club, Joan Didion's The Year of Magical Thinking, Beverly Donofrio's Riding in Cars with Boys, Tobias Wolff's This Boy's Life and others, to inform their own writing. Students will have reading and writing homework and will participate in workshop-style critiques. Upon completion, students will have the first chapter of their own memoir complete. It is helpful if students have taken Creative Writing 1 and 2, but not required.
Creative Writing 1
Date: Mondays, 1/26/2015 to 3/16/2015
Creative Writing 1 is an introductory course to the fundamental techniques of writing fiction and nonfiction forms. Instruction will explore research and interviewing techniques, narrative structure and scenic writing, dialogue, rhythm, pacing and the business of writing. The techniques learned in this class will apply to both fiction and nonfiction, and are designed to lead into a more advanced Creative Writing 2 course.

Definition of kin selection in English:
kin selectionSyllabification: kin se·lec·tion
Natural selection in favor of behavior by individuals that may decrease their chance of survival but increases that of their kin (who share a proportion of their genes).
More example sentences
- But kin selection theory explains altruistic behaviour as a clever strategy devised by selfish genes as a way of increasing their representation in the gene-pool, at the expense of other genes.
- A prerequisite for individuals accruing advantages through kin selection is interaction among relatives.
- A predominant theory of social evolution is kin selection, which notes that it is advantageous for individuals to help their relatives because it increases the number of their shared genes in future generations.

Contrary to the writer from Fort Mitchell, I think that Kathleen Parker's demeaning words about moral certitude were perhaps the worst she has ever written. There are millions of Christians, Jews, and others who do not consider themselves well described pejoratively as "fundamentalists" but who share a faith-based moral certitude that some actions are intrinsically […]

Condoning sin is not an act of love
01/03/14 at 11:52am by Letters Editor | Comments
According to Kathleen Parker, columnist for the Washington Post, and Hilda Weaver of Fort Mitchell most Americans must be "fundamentalist who find refuge in the toxic swamp of moral certitude." Most Americans are morally certain about things like murder, theft, rape, kidnapping, and slavery. Can you imagine the level of toxicity in the swamp of […]

Thank you, Kathleen Parker, for telling the truth in a peerless example of the English language well used: "… fundamentalism, regardless of religion, finds refuge in the toxic swamp of moral certitude." Hilda Weaver, Fort Mitchell
Columnists state the obvious
12/30/13 at 4:52pm by Letters Editor | Comments
I was struck by Kathleen Parker's column on Sunday ("Duck Dynasty dispute exposes divide in our nation's values"). Really Kathleen? We have a divide in our nation's values? Geez, I hadn't noticed. Meanwhile, the normally-ever-alert George Will points out on the next page that "Mandatory sentences nullify rights," and suggests that perhaps it's time we […]

I believe that Kathleen Parker was part of the problem in covering up the president's lies. There were many that screamed the message that Obamacare was a Trojan horse. Many have known before it was passed that most Americans would not keep their health insurance or their doctors. Many think tanks, including Heritage, told us […]
Basic and reasonable gun laws will save lives

It is hard to understand the glee of columnist Kathleen Parker as she cherry-picks cases where sensible new gun laws would not have prevented disaster.

Merely restricting guns for the mentally ill not enough

Kathleen Parker's column "Will feel-good gun laws really help?" (April 11) was partially right. The current proposals on gun laws do not include the key requirement that would have stopped most of the recent mass killings in the USA. We need a national law and commitment to take the guns out of the home of […]

"Will feel-good gun laws really help" (April 11) was an excellent article by Kathleen Parker regarding gun laws.

In our age of near constant connection to social media it was refreshing to hear someone recognize the massive responsibility that comes with this power.

'Sensitivity training' isn't related to decline of family

The Kathleen Parker critique of government sensitivity training was excellent until her conclusion that the decline of the American home somehow led to the current obsession with diversity ("Government sensitivity training that leaves listener numbed into niceness" Feb. 26). The rise of something called "sensitivity training," an offspring of diversity training, is not related to […]

Macaroni Grill
Austin, TX
We couldn't afford real catering, so we had Macoroni Grill do a Family Style Delivery. It was very affordable and everybody raved about the food, especially the chicken bowtie pasta and the mushroom ravioli. The pasta with red meat sauce (which they recommended I get so I didn't have only white sauces) was not a big hit at all. Everything else was great and they bring plates and plastic silverware that we kept as backup, along with mints, two loaves of garlic bread for each platter (serves 8-10). Their caesar salad was excellent, and the driver was great, he set up all the food on a buffet table for us and the gratuity was already included in the bill. This saved us money big time as it only cost us about $600 to feed 72 people. We provided our own drinks and dessert, though. Also, you don't have to book way in advance, I think I booked about a week and a half in advance.

My husband and I decided to have a cake and punch wedding at our church. We wanted all our family and friends to enjoy our special day, but couldn't afford to pay for dinner for everyone. Our guest list was 175. We were married at our church and everyone stayed for cake and punch. For dinner, our wedding party and about 60 of our family members and very close friends drove to Macaroni Grill for dinner. The food was wonderful!! We were also engaged at Macaroni Grill and my husband had someone sing to me. Beautiful and Very Romatic!!!

Let's confront it, tanning can be addictive. It can make you feel youthful, healthier, vivid - even thin. And in the cold and darkness of extended wintertime months, it can immediately raise your spirits and physically rejuvenate you. But tanning beds - like the sunlight - can be hazardous for your skin, resulting in everything from early getting older to pores and skin most cancers. The important to utilizing tanning beds properly is utilizing them responsibly. So, it's greatest to adhere to a few tanning bed tips for a successful - and wholesome - final result.
1st and foremost, it really is crucial to know your pores and skin. It is a widespread misconception that those who don't tan well in organic daylight are adjustable bed abruptly in a position adjustable beds to achieve the perfect tan in a tanning salon. Absolutely nothing could be further from the truth. If you are honest skinned and have a tendency to melt away then you will more adjustable beds than probably burn off in a tanning bed. So, 1 of the most crucial tanning bed ideas to remember is that if you burn off simply you ought to keep away from tanning beds completely.
If you have darker skin or are much more apt to tan in natural daylight then tanning beds are far much less hazardous for you. If you select to tan then be positive to remember 1 of the much more considerable tanning mattress tips - use protective lotion. There are really a amount of protective lotions developed for distinct pores and skin varieties and accessible at most tanning salons. Find the lotion that works best for your specific skin and use it each and each time you tan.
Yet another of the tanning bed tips that will assist protect your skin is to tan in moderation. If you do visit a tanning salon then do so with nominal frequency and time of exposure. Overexposure - the two in frequency and time put in in the bed - will not only increase your publicity to harmful UV rays but will achieve that "as well tanned" search that can be extremely unattractive.

The Summer/Fall 2011 edition of touring and TAsting Magazine has a feature regarding family activities for Sonoma County. Since the question about what to do with kids comes up occasionally I thought this might be a relevant note.
Other resources that include ideas for travel with children in the wine country regions are: 101 Things to Do Guide ( available for locations all over the country, just type in where your interest is); californiawineryadvisor.com has had a section on children, whether it exists when you're reading this is anyone's guess. Several of the travel guide books offer a section on having kids in wine country as well. The two I own are Lonely Planet's "Napa/Sonoma Encounter" and Fodor's

The Joys of Minor League Ball
Getting to score plays like: E1 E3 3-4
James R. Henderson takes on the fine-tuning argument with a little help from the local nine:
Suppose there were an annual event contested on seemingly fair terms (with one exception) which one contestant never seemed to win. The event has been contested for a very long time under varying rules, conditions, and between varying numbers of contestants since the inception of the contest. The contestants are actually teams, and all teams are given equal access to sign any members of the player pool. The make up of this player pool has evolved considerably over time, and the style of play has gone through many changes throughout the history of the contest. There is one inherent advantage given to some teams, not by the league, but by the geographical location of those vying in the competition. Interestingly, the team that cannot seem to win, the team with which we are concerned, is one of the greatest beneficiaries of this large advantage. Yet, generations come and go and the supporters of our unlucky squad are always forced to say, "Wait till next year." Next year always arrives right on schedule, but no matter how heartbreakingly close our team may come to bringing home the championship, they always lose. Always. What conclusion would be drawn from this situation? Would an objective analyst say that the incredible run of futility is merely the result of chance and bad luck, or would she say that the event is somehow fixed?
Or, as Steve Goodman put it:
The law of averages says that anything will happen that can/But the last time the Cubs won the National League Penant/ Was the year we dropped the bomb on Japan.

not bad at all. didn't expect it to be good, to be honest. i think its just the cast that makes you think twice before watching these movies. too many bad movies by these guys in the last few years - expendables is a great example. enjoyed watching it - good plot and fast paced. obviously, its not a cohen brothers production but all in all, for what it is, its pretty good.
