Yes, we're completely aware these Notepods are just a clever attempt to capitalize on the popularity of the iPhone and Moleskin notebooks, but we don't care, we still want them. On one side you'll find "52mm by 77mm of blank space floating in darkness… in a form reminiscent of a popular smart phone" (got to keep the Apple lawyers at bay I guess) and on the other, a light 6mm grid for technical sketches or tic-tac-toe.

"Fiction and history coalesce in a rich, ripping tale of assassinations, political intrigue and religion. . . . LaFevers' ambitious tapestry includes poison and treason and murder, valor and honor and slow love, suspense and sexuality and mercy. A page-turner—with grace." --Kirkus Reviews
Tells the story of Barbara Thorson, an acerbic fifth-grader so consumed with fantasy that she doesn't just tell people that she kills giants with an ancient Norse warhammer - she starts to believe it herself. This book reveals the reasons for Barbara's troubled behavior, as she learns to reconcile her fantasy life with the real world.
From the New York Times bestselling author of the Maze Runner comes The Rule of Thoughts, the exciting sequel to The Eye of Minds. Michael completed the Path. What he found at the end turned everything he'd ever known about his life—and the world—completely upside down.

How long has your company offered a formal wellness plan? Since 2008.
What was the primary reason your company started focusing on wellness? In 2008, Birmingham Office Regional Manager Ramona Klinner got the idea for a firm-wide weight loss challenge from our health insurance provider, Blue Cross Blue Shield of Alabama and referred the program to our firm's human resources department.
What would you say are the three best benefits or perks of your company's plan? Our Birmingham office has a partnership with the YMCA where they waive the enrollment fee for employees. We also have discounted gym memberships and routine health care clinics, and the office hosts weekly ping-pong tournaments among attorneys and staff.
What's a unique or innovative wellness perk or initiative your company offers? Within the annual weight loss program itself, initiatives include prizes of $500 per team member for first place, $250 for second place and $125 per team member for third place. The contest also includes a drawing of a one-night hotel stay.
What's your company's philosophy on workplace wellness in 10 words or less? Healthy and happy employees make for productive employees.
What has your company learned since launching its wellness plan? The goal we established when organizing this program is to each year help motivate our staff and attorneys toward a healthier lifestyle. The feedback we have received from our employees has helped us realize that we have achieved that goal.
What impact has the wellness plan had on workers? The program builds camaraderie around teams working toward a combined goal which has led to many of our Birmingham employees working out together, entering 5K races together and various other local races/walks outside of the firm.

Culture runs deep in the heart of Egypt and this can be seen through the Cairo Opera House. Located in the capital city of Egypt, this opera house is a fairly new addition to the area. There are three theaters here and each has a specialized use. The Main Theater has 1200 seats and is primarily used for the operas along with ballets and other musical performances. The Second Theater is a considerably smaller area with only 500 seats. This theater's main uses tend to be film festivals and business conferences. The Third Theater has 1000 seats and can be used for smaller productions.
The Cairo Opera House has plenty of room for training and rehearsals. Visitors can browse the library and museum to research the various works of arts featured here. Visitors enjoy the opportunity to listen to traditional music in the open theater as the stars shine above or experience the thrills and drama of an opera on a night out on the town.

January 5, 2012
RICHMOND, Va. (AP) - The subject of years of study and passionate debate around the state - proposed uranium mining in Virginia - is heading to the General Assembly and what is expected to be one of the fiercest environmental battles in recent memory.
First stop is the legislature's Coal and Energy Commission on Monday. The panel of House and Senate members is expected to make a recommendation on proposed legislation establishing a state regulatory framework for uranium mining. The regulations must be in place before the state's 1982 moratorium on uranium mining can be lifted.
While the commission can't end the debate on Monday, it could influence the outcome of the legislation in the session that starts Wednesday.
Virginia Uranium Inc. wants to mine a rich deposit of the ore in Pittsylvania County.

Vascular parkinsonism (VP) is difficult to diagnose with any degree of clinical certainty. We investigated the importance of macroscopic cerebral infarcts and pathological findings associated with microscopic "small vessel disease" (SVD) in the aetiology of VP. The severity of microscopic SVD pathology (perivascular pallor, gliosis, hyaline thickening, and enlargement of perivascular spaces) and the presence of macroscopically visible infarcts were assessed in 17 patients with parkinsonism and no pathological evidence of either Parkinson's disease or any histopathological condition known to be associated with a parkinsonian syndrome, and compared with age-matched controls. Microscopic SVD pathology was significantly more severe in the parkinsonian brains. Most patients presented with bilateral bradykinesia and rigidity together with a gait disorder characterised predominantly by a shuffling gait. Four patients presented acutely with hemiparesis and then progressed to develop a parkinsonian syndrome. They could be distinguished from the remaining VP patients by the presence at autopsy of macroscopically visible lacunar infarcts in regions where contralateral thalamocortical drive might be reduced. The clinical features at presentation varied according to the speed of onset and the underlying vascular pathological state. New clinical criteria for a diagnosis of VP are proposed based on the clinicopathological findings of this study. © 2004 Movement Disorder Society

First Look: Lady Gaga "Alejandro" Video Teaserby Free Britney at . Comments
It seems like just a few months ago that we were buzzing over Lady Gaga's "Telephone" music video. We suppose it was. But she's already got a new hit.
On the singer's CNN appearance Tuesday night, she told Larry King that the music video for her current single, "Alejandro," will be premiering very soon.
She explained that the video has a "homoerotic military theme."
Well, sure, all the good ones do. While it won't address hermaphrodite rumors the way "Telephone" did, it does contain an important theme for Lady G.
"It is a celebration of my love and appreciation for the gay community, my admiration of their bravery, love for one another and their courage," said Gaga.
The new video, directed by fashion photographer Steven Klein, is at least partially in black and white. Watch the clip below and tell us what you think:
Worst I have ever seen. She may get her kit off & the body is hot, but she is not good at all. How about a nose job or just hide. Not good. I lot of ok looking people could pull this off, she just puts the female body out there & all dick heads go WOW. Wake up!!!!!!!
Looks like the Vogue/Express Yourself video. Is no one original anymore? C'mon Steven Klein.
Love this song...SO addicting

MILWAUKEE, Jan. 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- ManpowerGroup (NYSE: MAN), the world leader in innovative workforce solutions, says U.S. companies must build up the right business leaders needed to strategically evolve their business across fast-changing industries and regional economies, as the world's talent shortage ensues and the risk linked to business decisions in today's economy intensifies.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20110330/CG73938LOGO-a)
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics today reported that the overall December jobless rate was 7.8%. The U.S. private sector added 156,000 new jobs last month, while October's jobs figure was revised down from 138,000 to 137,000 and November was revised up from 146,000 to 161,000.
"Developing leaders who can navigate volatility and build the flexible workforce needed to fulfill a business strategy is too often, today, just a concept versus a top priority for executive teams," said Jeffrey A. Joerres, ManpowerGroup Chairman and CEO. "The unpredictable nature of today's economy is forcing all business leaders to make quick, yet carefully vetted decisions. All business leaders must think very critically about the complex decision-making skills required by their executive teams in the Human Age."
According to ManpowerGroup's 2012 Talent Shortage Survey results, 49% of U.S. employers struggle to fill mission-critical positions. Despite this statistic, a substantial proportion of employers indicate unfilled positions are expected to have little or no impact on key constituents, such as customers and investors; this proportion grew from 36% in 2011 to 56% in 2012.
"Complacency does not enable a company to manage risk, find the best talent or make effective business decisions," said ManpowerGroup President Jonas Prising. "Business decisions in the Human Age carry more risk than ever before. A specific mix of skills and mindsets need to be developed in leadership teams to frame the right context for the decision-making process."
Optimism among U.S. hiring decision makers continues to improve, according to the Manpower Employment Outlook Survey's new U.S. results. When seasonal variations are removed from the data, the Net Employment Outlook for Quarter 1 2013 is +12%, a 1 percentage point increase from Quarter 4 2012 and slightly elevated from +9% during the same period last year. This quarter's research concludes that this quarter is the strongest first quarter data collected since 2008, and is significantly stronger than the weakest first quarter Outlook in the history of the survey, reported in 2010. Full survey results appear here: http://www.manpowergroup.com/press/meos_landing.cfm

The security devil is always in the details of the attack: the ones you've endured, the ones you prepare yourself to fend off, and the ones that, you fear, will catch you completely unaware and defenseless. The Internet of Things (IoT) is nothing if not an endless proliferation of details. It's the vision of a world in which continuous Internet connectivity and addressability is embedded into a growing range of human artifacts, into the natural world, and even into our smartphones, appliances, and physical persons. In the IoT vision, every new "thing" - sensor, actuator, data source, data con...

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, discussed single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data. By focusing on enterprise applications and the data center, he will use OpenTSDB as an example t...

How do APIs and IoT relate? The answer is not as simple as merely adding an API on top of a dumb device, but rather about understanding the architectural patterns for implementing an IoT fabric. There are typically two or three trends: Exposing the device to a management framework Exposing that management framework to a business centric logic Exposing that business layer and data to end users. This last trend is the IoT stack, which involves a new shift in the separation of what stuff happens, where data lives and where the interface lies. For instance, it's a mix of architectural styles ...

The Domain Name Service (DNS) is one of the most important components in networking infrastructure, enabling users and services to access applications by translating URLs (names) into IP addresses (numbers). Because every icon and URL and all embedded content on a website requires a DNS lookup loading complex sites necessitates hundreds of DNS queries. In addition, as more internet-enabled 'Things' get connected, people will rely on DNS to name and find their fridges, toasters and toilets. According to a recent IDG Research Services Survey this rate of traffic will only grow. What's driving t...

Scott Jenson leads a project called The Physical Web within the Chrome team at Google. Project members are working to take the scalability and openness of the web and use it to talk to the exponentially exploding range of smart devices. Nearly every company today working on the IoT comes up with the same basic solution: use my server and you'll be fine. But if we really believe there will be trillions of these devices, that just can't scale. We need a system that is open a scalable and by using the URL as a basic building block, we open this up and get the same resilience that the web enjoys.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC, and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) i...

The definition of IoT is not new, in fact it's been around for over a decade.

DPP Solutions: Decoding High-Speed Memory Cards
You need the right card to perform up to your camera's full capabilitiesHigh-megapixel continuous still shooting, especially RAW, and full HD video require fast memory cards.
Hi-Tech Studio: Continuous Lighting For Motion And Stills
LED technology makes a play for the spotlightLight-emitting diodes (LEDs) are incredibly compact bulbs that consume very little power while throwing off absolutely minimal heat.
July/August 2012
New Tools Of The Trade
Misinformation: Camera Tech
Image resolution and pixel size are just a few of the many factors in the image equationThe common understanding is that the more megapixels you have in a camera, the more image resolution you'll have in an image, which translates not only to larger prints, but also to better imaging quality.
Simplify Your Lighting
Less is often more when it comes to crafting beautiful illuminationI recently received a call from a commercial photographer who was to visit my city on assignment.
The Game Is Changing
4K resolution and the ability to pull high-res still frames from full-motion capture are creating a paradigm shift in photographyFor years, professional still photographers used still cameras and pro cinematographers used movie cameras.
Dean Bradshaw: The Digital Ninja
Dean Bradshaw's irreverent commercial photography stylistically blends a disarming sense of humor with a technical mastery of retouching and compositingSouthern California-based photographer Dean Bradshaw began his career as a field biologist in the Australian outback where he spent most of his time finding snakes and lizards.
James T. Murray: Inside & Out
Whether he's shooting on the studio tabletop or in the urban landscape, James T. Murray brings an artist's eye and a craftsman's touch to his photographyWhy, after a long day of working for commercial clients, would a successful photographer want to keep shooting once he steps out the studio door?
Vincent Laforet: Cross-Dissolve
Vincent Laforet's visual life is in transition. The Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer has emerged as a standard-bearer for a new generation of still and motion digital storytellers.Vincent Laforet has always been in pursuit of a good story.
Sharpening With HDR Software
Enhance detail by boosting the differences between neighboring tonesHDR software is most typically used to render shadow and highlight detail, but it also can be used to enhance tonal separation and detail in any range of tones, even in images with extremely low contrast.
A Photograph Of Many Uses
Frans Lanting takes us through his workflow for optimizing and tracking a photograph through multiple end usesWorld-renowned photographer Frans Lanting, director of projects and processes at the Frans Lanting Studio, has everything covered.
Stealing Inspiration
Where's the line between inspiration, plagiarism and copyright infringement?Every now and again, I find myself explaining photographic techniques to younger photographers.
The True Cost Of Big Prints
Does it pay off for you to make large prints yourself or to contract the work out to a high-quality lab?If you've had prints of 20x24 or larger done for you on a regular basis, you've probably thought about purchasing your own large-format printer at some point.
Vision To Visuals: Full Circle
Serendipity brought William John Kennedy's 50-year-old images back to DuggalAt one point, Andy Warhol's studio offered me one of his art works as payment for the work I did for them. Having just established my business, I naively declined the offer and settled for a cash payment instead.

May I recommend an outstanding book to you on motherhood? It's short, Biblically-based, compelling, encouraging, and honest about the every day struggles we face as mommas. I'm excited that Moody Publishers has given me a copy to give away here on my blog.
Here are a few of my favorite quotes in the book by Erin Davis:
The moms from Nehemiah's days encourage us to ask, "What if parenting isn't just about raising good kids but about winning a war? What if you aren't just building a family, but are building a kingdom that will endure?"
Being fully God, Jesus chose to come to earth. He chose to come as an infant, and He chose to be mothered. He chose to be tied to a sinful, inexperienced, inadequate human in this way.
Blessings and burdens are not mutually exclusive. Just because something is hard or cumbersome, doesn't mean it's not a blessing.
Erin dives into several lies in Beyond Bath Time that we believe in motherhood:
Lie #1 – Motherhood is a roadblock to my happiness
Lie #2 – Motherhood is defined by the decision whether or not to work
Lie #3 – The ultimate goal of motherhood is perfectionism
Lie #4 – If you can't stand the heat, remodel the kitchen
Lie #5 – Motherhood will make you holy
This book has encouraged me on so many levels and is definitely worth your time, especially if you are in the throws of motherhood wondering if you will survive without screwing up your children.
From the Back Cover:
As a mom of two young boys, author Erin Davis knows what it's like to face dirty diapers, sleepless nights, and toddler tantrums. She isn't a perfect mom, parenting perfect kids, but as she studied God's plan for motherhood she found a message of hope and purpose that moved her beyond the mundane tasks of her role. In this book, she passes those lessons on to you in a way that every mom can relate to.
In Beyond Bath Time, Erin will guide you to the Bible for answers to your questions about God and motherhood. You'll find that the well is deeper than you ever imagined. Your eyes will be opened to the radical notion that being a mom is a high and holy calling and that nothing you do will outweigh the potential impact of raising your children for Christ.
About Erin Davis: Erin is popular speaker, author, and blogger. She has addressed women of all ages nationwide and is passionately committed to sharing God's truth with others. Erin is the author of several books, including Graffiti: Learning to See the Art in Ourselves, True Princess: Embracing Humility in an All-About-Me World, The Bare Facts (with Josh McDowell), and Lies Young Women Believe Companion Guide (with Nancy Leigh DeMoss and Dannah Gresh). Visit www.BeyondBathTime.com
** To enter to win a copy, please comment with one messy thing and one beautiful thing in your role as Momma this week! I will choose the winner using Random.org and announce on Tuesday. **

LEWISBURG, W.VA. (AP) -- Theft is suspected in the disappearance of drugs and cash from the Greenbrier County Sheriff's Department.
WVVA-TV says court documents filed by prosecutor Patrick Via show a former employee is suspected of taking controlled substances and cash from the department.
The missing drugs and money were reported in August.
Via requested the appointment of a special prosecutor for the case due to a conflict of interest.
The investigation was turned over to the West Virginia State Police following an internal probe.

I made this Minoru during the Sewaholic.net Minoru Sew-Along. I added side-seam pockets (for a tutorial, see here) and made a few other minor tweaks here and there. My favorite part: the fabric. I got it from FineFabrics.com during their winter sale. It's a wonderful weight for a project like this one, and I recommend snatching it up if you're interested. You can find it here. I lined the jacket, even the hood, with a gold Bemberg rayon. And, I did my best to get a matching zipper (with gold teeth!) from ZipperStop.com.
All in all, I couldn't be happier with this jacket. It's perfect for cutting the chill on a typical San Francisco evening or for keeping me cozy during my daily bike commute. It's fun yet practical. A perfect combination if you ask me. Thanks, Tasia, for leading such a fun Sew-Along!
You can read more on my blog, Sew Well.
Cotton with a bit of lycra fashion fabric, Bemberg rayon lining, an insanely long separating zipper, interfacing, and two buttons to keep the secret internal pockets closed.

The Houstons
Word is Pat Houston recently filed a restraining order against Nick Gordon. Pat Houston is Whitney Houston's sister-in-law/state executor and she's been none too pleased with Gordon's romantic relationship with Whitney's daughter, Bobbi Kristina. Though never legally adopted by Whitney, Gordon moved in with them when he was 12, and he and Bobbi were treated as brother and sister. Tensions have flared since the two married in January 2014, apparently to the point of Gordon threatening Pat.
