CHARLOTTE COUNTY, Fla. - A quiet Saturday morning inside the Lakes of Tuscana apartment complex. But ask any of the residents and they said today is an important day.
"I really wanted to go to the service," said Amanda Tuck.
Instead Amanda Tuck used her home to memoralize the fallen Sergeant, hanging a blue ribbon on her apartment.
"You know I just really wanted to show the family that we are appreciative of him and appreciate what he did for us," said Tuck.
She was inside her apartment the night Wilson was killed.
"I think it definitely opens your eyes, you know where are you safe at. It just kinda changes how you do things a little bit," said Tuck.
Now days later, she said she still can't believe what happened even as the procession for the fallen deputy passes by the apartment where he was shot and killed.
"I usually walk my dog and it's hard for me to even walk on that side of the building."
Tuck said the only sign of the incident is the front door to Jay Vanko's apartment. The front door has been replaced and is now white.
"We even saw the people yesterday and you just kind of give them a smile and hope that they're doing okay," said another resident, Abby Keathley.

Fancy Brings E-Commerce To Google Glass
Fancy has launched an app that brings product discovery and e-commerce to Google Glass.
The help page linked above offers a detailed video tutorial that shows a user taking a photo, getting product suggestions based on that photo and completing a transaction — all within the Glass interface. The Fancy app even confirms the purchase with a receipt sent to Glass.
It all happens — after authorizing the app — by setting up Fancy as a sharing contact in the user's Google Glass account. Once a photo is taken, the user shares it with the "Fancy Color Search" contact. Fancy then returns a number of similar products back to the user's Glass timeline. Those products can be shared or purchased. Here's the demo video:
Google's current API terms bar developers from making money via ads or by trying to charge for access to their apps. The language doesn't appear to prevent developers from making money via e-commerce as Fancy is doing, but Google can always rewrite those terms whenever it wants — something that Fancy COO Michael Silverman is well aware of.
"Google Glass is a terrific innovation and Google is entitled to do whatever they want with their api and their rules," Silverman said via email. "We are an e-commerce company. Ours is a shopping app. Developing for Google Glass was a breeze and a lot of fun."
The Fancy help page says the app is still pending approval, but it's actually ready now. Glass owners can visit glass.fancy.com to authorize the app and then activate it via the MyGlass home page.

Research Sites
For 150 years, Iowa State has worked to apply science that is relevant to the needs of agriculture and highly relevant to all Iowans. Historically, Iowa State has played a major role in scientific and technological advances in agriculture, life sciences and related fields.
Extending the Lettuce Growing Season in a Mini-tunnel
Vegetable extension specialist Ajay Nair describes his research for the department of Horticulture at Iowa State University.
Research in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences is by its nature mission-oriented. The College historically has played a significant role in Iowa's economy and society, and through the application of science to the practical problems facing Iowa today, the College continues to be a vital and relevant force for positive change.
Learn more about mission-oriented research in CALS
Research to Advance Iowa Since 1888
Research in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences is conducted through the Iowa Agriculture and Home Economics Experiment Station. Since 1888, the Experiment Station has been charged to conduct organized research in the biological, physical and social sciences, to contribute to the advancement of all Iowa's agricultural industry and to improve the economic and social condition of Iowa's families and communities. The Experiment Station's work represents the efforts of scientists in more than 35 departments, centers, and programs across the Iowa State campus. Although the work primarily focuses on areas in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences, the Experiment Station also supports research in other colleges and cooperates with other states' experiment stations to ensure that attention is paid to critical problems, research results are shared and duplication is avoided.
Science-based Information through Extension
Much of the research in the College of Agriculture and Life Sciences has ISU Extension as its primary conduit for transferring the fruit of science and technology to Iowans. ISU Extension meets critical needs through the teamwork of campus faculty, a statewide corps of local Extension leaders and specialists and many trained volunteers.

Sultry soul singer John Legend has collaborated with everyone from Jay-Z to Fergie to Mariah Carey, but he'll score his biggest hit yet when he goes from solo act to a duo with model Chrissy Teigen later this year. Legend and Teigen started dating in 2007 and got engaged while on a trip to the Maldives in December 2011. Teigen, a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit babe, confessed last year that despite having a career that constantly reaffirms her beauty, it hasn't always been easy dating a man that makes women drool. "I might have had a mental breakdown [in the beginning]," she said. Models: They're just like us!

Uber Feminine Shemale Gives a Great Cam ShowNovember 28, 2014 — PornPal
I do love peeking into the private live of transsexual cam babes by watching the tapes of their shows available in the Deviantclip tranny video collection. If you didn't know going in that this one was a tranny, you'd be in for a big shock when she strips. This doll looks female enough to be real, and she carries herself with poise and grace that would be the envy of any woman. And on top of all that, she gives great cock!

When you're looking at a basket-case Ford Ranchero, a Cadillac 500-cubic-inch V8 plus TH400 transmission, an ancient Mercedes-Benz hood, and a yard full of random scrap metal, do you feel optimistic? The builder of this fine machine certainly did! (Read More…)
Working in the 24 Hours of LeMons Penalty Box, the constant refrain of "Four wheels off" over the radio from the corner workers reporting miscreant drivers gets a little tedious. Hearing "Six wheels off," however, really livens things up for us. That's just one of the many benefits of having the Team Apex Vinyl Texas six-wheeled Toyota Hilux in a race. (Read More…)
There are some fast LeMons cars that suffer from a single glaring weakness that knocks them out of the running after maintaining a lead for hour after hour. For example, the Acura Integra and Honda Prelude and their fragile head gaskets, or the Toyota MR2's chronic engine-cooling/oiling woes. The Ford Taurus SHO, however, is constructed entirely from weaknesses; the transmissions explode, the engines throw rods (when they aren't too busy spinning bearings and/or burning valves), the brakes overheat, and the suspensions crumble like pretzel sticks in a trash compacter. Wheel bearings, electrical components, you name it. But when a well-driven SHO doesn't fall apart, very few LeMons-priced cars can catch it on a race course. (Read More…)
After a grueling all-day battle of thrown rods, car fires, and busted suspensions at MSR Houston, we never expected to see a Ford Taurus SHO with a Rat Patrol roof gunner on the same lap as a bar-sponsored '84 Volkswagen Rabbit. That's how things sorted out after the first race session of the fourth annual Yeehaw It's Texas 24 Hours of LeMons. (Read More…)
Perhaps you already know a little about this car from a previous post, but let's look a little deeper into what makes an engine swap in a Fiero so positively epic.
Here we are at MSR Houston for the fourth annual Yeehaw It's Texas 24 Hours of LeMons race. To ensure that TTAC's coverage of the race remains completely objective, we've got three of your most loyal and dependable TTAC scribes delivering hard-hitting, hammer-jack-stomping journalism for y'all.

Mesmerizing the unlucky reader

Well, that's more the Iron Maiden version of "Rhyme Of The Ancient Mariner" than Coleridge's, isn't it? And yet, this is not a dissimilar tale. There's plenty to tell about my stint as a driver for last weekend's 24 Hours of LeMons — misfortune, dehydration of the aqueous and fuel varities, damage, failure, and, finally, escape.
With a Mercedes-Benz taking the overall win, it only seemed fitting for another Mercedes-Benz to get the top prize: the Index of Effluency. (Read More…)
The temperature in Texas reached a muggy 104 degrees this afternoon, but that didn't stop the BenzGay Mercedes-Benz 300E from winning the 2011 Garrapatas Peligrosas 24 Hours of LeMons by a commanding 17-lap margin. (Read More…)
OK, not every car other than the BenzGay Mercedes-Benz W124 fell victim to thrown rods, busted suspensions, and the usual woes that knock LeMons cars out of races, but only 21 entries were still moving under their own power at the low point of late afternoon today. When the checkered flag waved at the end of the session, the BenzGay 300E sat atop a semi-comfortable four-lap cushion. (Read More…)

Think Like Zuck: What We Can Learn From Facebook's CEO
Facebook Co-Founder and CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been one of the most-discussed figures of our time. Some people love him, some criticize him, but most just watching from the sidelines marvel at how a 19-year-old could become the 29th-richest person in the world (according to Bloomberg's Billionaires Index) by building a simple social program. Last week, I finished reading Think Like Zuck: The Five Business Secrets of Facebook's Improbably Brilliant CEO Mark Zuckerberg by Ekaterina Walter and I found a lot of answers to that very question. So I sat down with her to talk about the book and Facebook in general.

I saw it on Sep 11th and thought it was a bit rough in places. The juggling was excellent; the songs were a bit long and drawn out; the dances were very funny; the dialogue was somewhat rushed... Expand

There are some administrators and fellow educators with their hearts in the right place. The administrators at the school are generally supportive of the teachers. When a student is causing unreasonable amounts of trouble for you, the administrators and guidance counselors are on your side first. Good effort is put into the athletic programs, and the administrators aim to make the workplace welcoming for all teachers.Cons
There are many terrible teachers here. The expectations are difficult to maintain and there is not much unity among the teaching staff. Terrible pay scale and advancement. High turnover rate for all staff. There is little oversight and accountability - when accountability is implemented, it is ineffective. There is a high rate of drug and alcohol abuse by the students (as expected in a high poverty school). Also, even though effort is put into the athletic programs, it seems that athletics sometimes ends up taking precedence over academics.Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEO

WEDNESDAY, Nov. 14 (HealthDay News) -- Patients with advanced solid tumors receiving cisplatin-based chemotherapy regimens have a significantly higher risk of having a venous thromboembolic event (VTE) compared with those who do not receive a cisplatin-based regimen, according to research published online Nov. 13 in the Journal of Clinical Oncology.
To evaluate the incidence and risk of VTEs associated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy, Sonia Seng, M.D., of the Southcoast Centers for Cancer Care in Fairhaven, Mass., and colleagues conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis of 38 randomized controlled trials from 1990 to 2010 involving 8,216 patients with various advanced solid tumors.
The researchers found that the incidence of VTEs in patients treated with cisplatin-based chemotherapy was 1.92 percent, compared with 0.79 percent in patients who did not receive cisplatin-based regimens. Cisplatin-based therapy was associated with significantly increased risk of a VTE (relative risk [RR], 1.67). Patients receiving a weekly equivalent cisplatin dose greater than 30 mg/m² had the highest risk (RR, 2.71), and increased risks were also noted for patients in trials during 2001 to 2010 (RR, 1.72).
"We observed a 1.67-fold increase in the risk of VTEs with cisplatin as compared with non-cisplatin-based chemotherapy," the authors write. "Given the morbidity and mortality associated with VTEs in patients with cancer, our study adds further support to calls for prospective trials of cisplatin-based chemotherapy administered with prophylactic anticoagulation."
Several authors disclosed financial ties to the pharmaceutical industry.

The aim of this study is to prospectively examine the association between maternal depressive symptoms in early pregnancy and risk of abnormal glucose tolerance (AGT) and impaired glucose tolerance (IGT) in mid-pregnancy. We evaluated this association among 934 participants in Proyecto Buena Salud, a prospective cohort study of Hispanic (predominantly Puerto Rican) women in Western Massachusetts. Depressive symptoms were assessed in early pregnancy using the 10-item Edinburgh Postnatal Depression Scale. Scores ≥13 indicated at least probable minor depression and scores ≥15 indicated probable major depression. AGT and IGT were diagnosed using American Diabetes Association criteria. In early pregnancy, 247 (26.5 %) participants experienced at least minor depression and 163 (17.4 %) experienced major depression. A total of 123 (13.2 %) were classified with AGT and 56 (6.0 %) were classified with IGT. In fully-adjusted models, the odds ratio for AGT associated with minor depression was 1.20 (95 % CI 0.77–1.89) and for major depression was 1.34 (95 % CI 0.81–2.23). The odds ratio for IGT associated with minor depression was 1.22 (95 % CI 0.62–2.40) and for major depression was 1.53 (95 % CI 0.73–3.22). We did not observe an association with continuous screening glucose measures. Findings in this prospective cohort of Hispanic women did not indicate a statistically significant association between minor or major depression in early pregnancy and AGT or screening glucose values in mid-pregnancy. Due to the small number of cases of IGT, our ability to evaluate the association between depression and IGT risk was constrained.

I mentioned this the other night in the Spurs recap, so of course I had to look it up: How much better does Nenad Krstic play in the third quarter compared to the other three? The answer? Much, much better.
First 7.4 1.9 2.4 38.9
Second 4.8 0.8 1.3 40.0
Third 8.5 1.8 3.9 63.8
Fourth 5.6 1.1 1.2 35.5
The biggest increase comes in his field goal percentage. He goes from shooting 38.1 percent in the other three quarters to 63.8 percent in the third. I liked reader Girlballer's theory for the better play from Krstic: "Euros don't eat dinner till like 10 o'clock or something. I think Nenad doesn't even WAKE UP until 8:30 or so…" That makes perfect sense to me. So I went and looked at Krstic's numbers for West Coast games. In those 7 PM starts Pacific time, it would be like starting at 9 PM here. And wouldn't you know it, his shooting numbers, scoring and rebounding all stayed basically the same as his season averages. Theory debunked. Darn it. Keep Reading…

Nappy Roots - Hey Love
Artist: Nappy Roots
Producer: Organized Noize
Album: Nappy Dot Org
Avg Rating: 3.9 ( 11 votes )
Nappy Roots just don't know how to be anything but completely honest. Fresh off their openly candid, Booth-approved last single Congratulations, the Southern soaked quintet wear their hearts on their sleeves…I mean mics on their sleeves…I mean hearts on their mics…whatever, you get what I'm going for…on new single Hey Love. Constant production collaborators Organized Noize lay down an appropriately romantic yet dark beat for emcees Skinny Deville, B. Stille, Ron Clutch, Big V. and Fish Scales to lay down their lyrical meditations on, digging deep into a love that keeps you coming back, even if it'd be better for everyone involved if you just walked away. Throw in a gritty hook from Samuel Christian and you've got a record everyone can relate to; or at least everyone who's actually been in a relationship. Does this slow burner get you in the mood to show the Nappy Roots some love? You're in luck. Their upcoming album Nappy Dot Org is set to hit our eardrums on September 27 and be sure to catch one of the best live shows around when the DJBooth-presented Nappy Dot Org Tour hits your city.

My name's Blue, and I'm a cheese addict.
My errant pound puppies, Skeeter and Bean, were discovered playing tug of war with HALF of my favorite black bra. The other half has not been found.
PLEASE ADOPT! Visit your local shelter and meet the love of your life.
Swiss Cheese Snuggie
Buoy turned my Snuggie into the swiss cheese version.
Don't look at me. It was the puppy!
I didn't eat Mommy's cashmere sweater, or roll in the mud, or pass gas, or chew on the baby's foot every time he wears footie pajamas, or eat the meatloaf off the table, or jump on the UPS delivery man. It was Tiger the puppy that did all that. Not me. I'm an angel.
Love, Echo
Butter eater
I once ate a stick of butter…..and now you can cook with my poop!
Editor's note: Please be aware that ingesting large quantities of butter could make your dog very sick to his/her stomach. In some cases, it could cause pancreatitis. If you suspect your dog has eaten a lot of butter, please call your vet.
I already told him, this is my bed!
My 2 year old Great Dane, Bruno, thinks he shares the bed only with his mommy. He only chews up my husbands pillows, never mine. Lol.

I was framed by the neighbor's cats
I'm Yggam (Maggy spelled backwards). I was accused of pooping in the middle of my neighbor's bed. I am no longer allowed to visit. I was framed by one, if not all, of their three cats. They pooped on the bed. I shall have my revenge.

SunStar shines brightly on Signal Hill
Kelly LodewyksLast night the SunStar Beacon of Hope was unveiled and lit up on Signal Hill. And it looks pretty spectacular. Designed by Christopher Swift and part of the World Design Capital initiatives, the SunStar was made with pieces of the fencing from Robben Island. Standing 24 metres high, this outdoor art installation will stay on Signal Hill for about six months before it's moved, possibly to one of the properties of Sun International, who funded the piece.

Nothing is for-sure in the criminal court system until it actually happens. But Monday's pretrial conference in the drug-dealing case against a former Norristown defense attorney could include the announcement of a negotiated resolution.
If it happens, a deal involving former defense attorney Gregory Noonan, of Lansdale, won't come as a surprise to many people in the county's legal community.
This year, Noonan sent a letter to the Pennsylvania board that disciplines attorneys, offering his resignation from the state bar. The state Supreme Court accepted his offer and disbarred Noonan, who is being held in the Chester County prison.
This just in from the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation:
King of Prussia – The Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT) today announced that one lane will be closed on eastbound Route 422 between the Sanatoga and Route 724 interchanges in Lower Pottsgrove Township, Montgomery County and North Coventry Township, Chester County, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. beginning Monday (April 7) and lasting until late July, for the placement of new beams at the Norfolk Southern Main Line and Schuylkill River bridges.
Crews will work over the next three months to place new beams at the Armand Hammer Boulevard, Norfolk Southern Main Line and the Schuylkill River bridges.

While researching today's story about Abington Presbyterian Church's 300th anniversary, I stumbled upon the Rev. Thomas Murphy's 1889 book, "The Presbytery of the Log College," which chronicles the establishment of the Presbyterian church in early America.
It includes a lot of details about the early days of Abington, Norriton, Bensalem, and Philadelphia presbyteries, but by far my favorite excerpt comes from the appendix. There, Murphy describes, presumably from personal memory, the pomp and circumstance surrounding President Benjamin Harrison's visit to Montgomery County in 1889.
The visit was organized by Murphy and other church leaders, and largely facilitated by John Wanamaker, the famous merchant and Abington Presbyterian congregant who was at that time serving in Harrison's cabinet, as U.S. Postmaster-General.
While state, county and municipal officials have largely finished their post-disaster studies of the hellish Feb. 5 ice storm, many residents are still dealing with the aftermath.
In Lower Merion, special garbage pickup days were designated to get rid of the fallen tree branches and other debris left behind by the storm. Pickups began this week, but won't be finished until April 9.
The township debated whether to hire outside contractors, use city crews on overtime, or rely on residents to do the cleanup. In the end they decided on a hybrid approach, with residents gathering the debris and setting it curbside for city trash crews to pick up, eventually.

How to be a good blogger
1) Be Honest. Internet and Google are good at recognizing fakes
2) Always keep an eye on web analytics to receive feedback on what works and what does not work
3) Categories and Tags help people and search engines find your content easily
4) Trust in God but use Spell Check.
5) Interesting blog beats non interesting blog
6) Curiosity and Utility are the two things you need for a blog.
7) Artists steal. Bloggers get inspired. Search Engines catch thieves. So modify when you get inspired. Use original words
8) Benchmark with the best blogs in your subject. Read others. What does your blog aspire to do?
9) People who know CSS and HTML are better at changing blog layouts. Or people who are better at finding WordPress themes.
10) Plan your writing and always a few drafts handy.
11) Be regular in your passion for blogging. If you are not passionate about doing a good job out of it, you will NOT do a good job out of it.
12) Okay I have a superb blog. Where do I publicize without looking like a spammer?
